[21:30] <chat2> anyone here ?
[21:33] * highvoltage is
[21:33] * ajmitch is, but working :)
[21:34] * highvoltage too
[21:35] * ajmitch should be catching up on arb votes, but got big scheduled update & cleanup for our work product this weekend
[21:35] <ajmitch> though I'd like to hear about any tablet progress you've made :)
[21:43] <highvoltage> all we need is one binary file from the kubuntu guys
[21:44] <highvoltage> but the tablet guys seemed to have gone awol
[21:44] <highvoltage> I'm also still working
[21:44] <highvoltage> big moodle site upgrade
[21:45] <highvoltage> ...from a really big (as in, 200GB moodledata directory with a >5GB database) old moodle version (as in, 4 years old) to a new version
[21:45] <highvoltage> not fun but has to be done
[21:56] <chat2> anyone knows if its posible to turn the dhcp in edubunt off. Already have one on the network
[22:00] <highvoltage> chat2: sudo update-rc.d isc-dhcp-server disable
[22:00] <highvoltage> (that will stop it from autostarting)
[22:01] <highvoltage> "service isc-dhcp-server stop" will stop it
[22:02] <stgraber> does that actually work with the upstart job?
[22:02] <stgraber> (the update-rc.d bit)
[22:02] * stgraber tests
[22:02] <highvoltage> I doubt it
[22:03] <highvoltage> but isc-dhcp-server isn't a startup job yet iirc
[22:03] <stgraber> ouch, yeah, it creates a huge mess if you do that
[22:03] <stgraber> highvoltage: it's, I made it one in 12.04
[22:03] <highvoltage> oops, I got it from http://askubuntu.com/questions/19320/whats-the-recommended-way-to-enable-disable-services :)
[22:03] <stgraber> chat2: use "echo manual > /etc/init/isc-dhcp-server.override"
[22:04] * highvoltage should really not trust that site so much
[22:04] <stgraber> highvoltage: running "disable" actually makes it start twice (in case you were wondering what I mean by "huge mess")
[22:04] <highvoltage> heh
[22:05] <stgraber> as update-rc.d doesn't find /etc/rc* entries, it tries to "fix them" by creating them
[22:05] <highvoltage> that script should actually be made upstart aware
[22:05] <stgraber> making both the upstart job and the compatibility script try to run the same thing
[22:05] <highvoltage> (in debian)
[22:06] <stgraber> to quote man: update-rc.d - install and remove System-V style init script links
[22:06] <stgraber> it's "service" that should be extended to support disable/enable
[22:06] <stgraber> as it's already aware of upstart
[22:46] <boospy> hi :)
[22:47] <boospy> has anyone installed ltsp with connection to LDAP? I have some trouble with this.
[22:48] <boospy> First: Connection with LDAP and normal clients work, also connection on the LTSPserver works. For example: NX or terminal
[22:50] <boospy> Only when people logged in the Thinclient, sometime user can login, but it is a very long timeout. And then i can't see all menus, sometimes the logoutbutton is not here, sometimes there is only a whitescreen after login...
[22:50] <boospy> whats going on? I spend a lot of time for these things.
[22:50] <boospy> it is a special LTSP and LDAP auth?
