Re: /dev/dsp on clients

Yes, both
"cat /dev/urandom > /dev/dsp" AND
"cat /tmp/music.au > /dev/dsp" work (providing music.au is the right format)

However, what I want is to do
"cat /dev/dsp > /tmp/rec.au"
to record from microphone to the file rec.au, I don't get any sound.

Re: [solved] kino hangup

_SOLVED_

Dan Dennedy, from kino mailing-list, gave me the solution:

In kino preferences, set Display Method to GDK, not XVideo or Reduced 
XVideo. And it works!

Thanks to those who tried to help me

Re: /dev/dsp on clients [closed]

Figured out the reason!!
It was silly on my part, the machine that I booted ltsp on didn't have a
compatiabe audio driver for that sound card *doh*.  Tried another machine
and it works.

Jim has documented this problem at the top of this page:
http://wiki.ltsp.org/twiki/bin/view/Ltsp/DHCP
I can confirm that the fix works on SuSE 10.0.

Re: pxe problems

Eric,

   I wanted to do a deep world update (-Dvu) and there were a couple of 
blocking  packages.  After unmerging them, I started the big emerge 
(about 60 packages) just before leaving town for a couple of days.  When 
I got back the system had crashed while compiling Open Office due to 
running out of disk space.

   I fixed the disk problem and moved some directories to prevent the 
problem from occurring again.  I think that some version of xorg was 
blocking some updates at this time and I couldn't get rid of the block. 
(After unmerging the package, emerge still thought that it was blocking 
some packages.  I emerged and unmerged the package but the problem 
persisted.)  X window wasn't working and there didn't seem to be any way 
to get it going again without taking a day or two.

   I've been generally happy with gentoo, but like with all strongly 
packaged systems, I felt that I was tied, to a degree, with what 
packages were available.  I did install a few programs from tarballs, 
but for the most part stayed with the official gentoo ebuilds.

   One thing that I never did get resolved in gentoo was sound at the 
ltsp client computers.  I think it was due to using an older version of 
ltsp from the official gentoo ebuild.  I've now got sound at both 
workstations with my slackware install.

runescape, mozilla and ltsp

Hello,
Took a look at an ltsp installation www.social-tech.org <just trying to be helpfull>
They have a nice install of suse + ltsp.
It seems the children that use the facilities like runescape and amsn!
The server is 1 GB 1GHz and the clients are typically Pentium 2 266MHz and 128MB.
The problem is that the when the users try to play runescape in mozilla, two users at the same time is sloow and
three is impossible.
top invoked on the server reveals that with one player active the cpu is 20 -60% due to the java.
Sadly did not get to see what happens with 2 or more.
Some of the PCs have no local harddrive so use nfs_swap = 500mB and the network seems to be 100Mb/s fullduplex.
The java version is 1.4.2_6.
Is it maybe possible with some tweaking on the server - attention to X, java or Mozilla - to maybe get 3 or 4
users playing runescape?

Or could attending to the local X config - the xconfiguration is generated on the fly and not pre-specified
in the lts.conf - help more?

Just a few pointers and a few guesses would be helpful here!!!

TIA

Tony

Configuring Evolution Mail Client

We use Evolution as the mail client with LTSP.    When we create a new 
account and start Evolution the mail connection wizard starts to setup the 
account for the mailserver.  I would like to hide that from staff too.  Is 
there a way to setup Evolution through a template or by editing a 
configuration file?   I would like staff to login and use the terminal 
without having to run any setup wizards.

I will save you my rant about Gnome and Evolution(1).

It should be possible but you will have to dig deep into the Gnome 
registry-like file(s?).  There is some kind of utility that adds 
settings in a .reg-like format.  If they think a registry is such a good 
idea implement it on Windows (oh yeah its part of what sucks)...

Sorry for not being more helpful but I didn't go too far into it before 
deciding the next upgrade (if not before) everyone moves to Thunderbird...
