[opensuse-factory] LTSP 5 + openSUSE

2007-04-23 Thread CyberOrg

Hi,

Is anyone working on getting openSUSE native packages for LTSP 5 ?

If so I would like to help, if not I would like to start working on it
and would need all the help I can get, so if anyone is interested
please get in touch with me.

Cheers

See http://wiki.ltsp.org/twiki/bin/view/Ltsp/Ltsp5 :

  For Novell, Christoph Thiel and Andreas Jaeger are working
   on integrating LTSP-5 into the next release of openSUSE.

By the way: LTSP is a very great project!

I have no clue, who added us to that page :) Currently, I'm not aware of
anyone working actively on making LTSP5 work on openSUSE. AJ and myself were
involved in looking into what would be needed to get it running -- but those
efforts stalled, IIUC. Maybe it's time to push it again...


Best,
Christoph

I'd really like to work on this, but have no time for it until july because I 
have to write my diploma thesis. I have some extended experience with LTSP 
4.0 up to 4.2. I think it would be very good to have it in openSUSE. It 
offers many new opportunities by e.g. revitalizing old computers or making 
school class rooms cheaper and easier to administrate.

In Januari: by Jim Himself:

Around that time you were indeed involved, but that's was about it and that 
was than.

They are indeed stalled on the fact, that it was not possible, at that time, 
to find a location that is _the_ project place for ltsp5.  It was just not 
possible to find a developer that could point to a url and state:  that are 
the ltsp5 sources, run make install and be happy.  That might have changed 
in the meantime, but I did not see it happen.  In my opinion without a good 
project home (sources location or released tarbal location) it is not 
possible to include a project into a distribution.
Hence, the first step for someone that starts to work on this, is I think to 
identify the ltsp5 releases tarbal location and have that included in 
opensuse.

I found the source location weeks ago but it was not as it is now,would 
someone like to look again, https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ltsp
BTW, it sounds like with a little help we could actually change LTSP5 into 
something much more flexible if we replace the ltsp-client-build script 
with something that utilizes KIWI and add a management tool to build the 
different clients\images. cyberorg and I were looking at the code this AM. 
it will of course take some tweaking to get the local app and dev support 
running. You guys can do this in your sleep. your a great team and I really 
appreciate having you all to count on.

As I told in Bugzilla, count me in, Im interested on this too, however
we need a roadmap to know exactly what needs to be done and the
estimated amount of time it will take,
