Do you install that driver on the system and the chroot?

sudo chroot /opt/ltsp/i386 aptitude install xserver-xorg-driver-via*.deb

There is also a file in the system listing parameters
/opt/ltsp/i386/usr/share/doc/ltsp-client/examples/lts-parameters.txt.gz (you
need to decompress it first)

 As for the lts.conf, check out the Edubuntu handbook, which has the most
 up-to-date info on lts.conf:

Thanks Sudev and Scott.
Much appreciated :)

[Ltsp-discuss] two seats per terminal

2007-07-22 Thread Nadav Kavalerchik

Hi :-)

i've tried to install another video card on one of our test terminals plus
adding a usb card so i can have two video cards two keyboards and two mice
connected to a single terminal. and hopefully (one day) be able to figure
out how to have two students sit together and work with different screens
(keyboards and mice) on the same machine.

i've hacked the startx a little bit to have it recognize the video cards and
input devices with the help of :
http://blog.chris.tylers.info/index.php?/archives/14-Multiseat-X-Under-X11R6.97.0.html
i've set the first screen and then the second screen...
BUT, i got stuck when the old P1 (and some times a P2) machine could not
load the second video card's bios
i've tried several old cards from various vendors with no success.

any of you guys have any idea ?

Re: [Ltsp-discuss] LTSP5 and Dynamic DNS

 Methinks you are trying to solve a non-existant problem!
 Why would you maintain hostname table / DNS record with 100+ clients?

 Nobody needs to know, bother if you really did need this, you would be able
 to say bla for this reason. There is much more about LTSP that is worth
 learning.

Well,
There is a client of mine who comes from MS Windows Empire. In this Empire, 
a Domain controller posseses a DHCP service and DNS service where they both 
work together, so when a Winxp is connected to the network, it will get the 
IP from DHCP and then DHCP will update the DNS record. So, the Administrator 
will only have to KNOW the HOSTNAME of the Winxp. He can right away ping/map 
network drive/connect to that Winxp without the hassle of knowing the IP 
address.

Now, regarding LTSP5. He wants to migrate to OpenSource but with the above 
requirements. So, we managed to setup DHCP and DNS to work just like in 
Windows (please see the man page for dynamic updating of dns by dhcp). 
However, when we activate this feature, LTSP client got the IP address from 
DHCP but then failed to contact the TFTP server. This is the problem.

I'm sure there is a solution for this. I suspect that it's a just a 
misconfiguration by me. So, please if anybody in this list already 
successfully implement this, a little clue to the right direction would be 
great.

How does he read the DNS record? Do you want to know which user is
logged in from what IP/hostname?

last | grep USERNAME

will return the IP/hostname from where the user is logged in. Host
name will appear if there is an corresponding entry in /etc/hosts file
for that IP. Installing using ltspadmin sets up this file so that
there are entries for all hosts in your sub-net range (usually from
192.168.0.1 to 192.168.0.254 the hosts are named ws001 to ws254).

Using this host name you can ping to the terminal. But remember all
processes of user are running on the server and not the terminal. If
the intention is to manage user processes from IP/hotsname then it is
not going to work.

I am still trying to understand the end purpose of knowing hostname or
pinging the host.

No.. not the user logged in.
But, you are right about the lack of real benefit of dhcp-dns-dynamic-update 
for LTSP client. But, since the LTSP network and the rest of the network are 
in the same physical network, he still wants the dhcp-dns-dynamic-update (for 
the rest of the network). For the rest of the network, this feature is really 
needed (based on MS Domain Controller feature). So, yes, I will still try to 
figure it out how to make dhcp-dns-dynamic-update works for LSTP5.

Hello Ryan,
Can you be more specific? Maybe paste the more verbose error message?
