Re: [Epoptes] [Question #206412]: How to VNC a client's login screen (KDM, GDM, LoghtDM, etc.)?
Question #206412 on Epoptes changed: https://answers.launchpad.net/epoptes/+question/206412 Olivier Korn requested more information: Maybe you should explain how to to properly install epoptes-client, because I can't use this feature. Client are working perfectly after login, I can also start computers remotely (WOL), and so on. BUT I can't manage to access computers before somebody has logged in, or between two sessions (when first user has closed his/her session). Would you be kind enough to explain what I am missing or what I need to tell you in order to sort it out? -- You received this question notification because you are a member of Epoptes Developers, which is an answer contact for Epoptes. -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~epoptes Post to : epoptes@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~epoptes More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Question #206412 on Epoptes changed: https://answers.launchpad.net/epoptes/+question/206412 Alkis Georgopoulos requested more information: Before login, you should be seeing little red monitor icons like those: http://ts.sch.gr/mediawiki/images/c/c8/Epoptes_first_screen.png From there, you can select to assist the user from the epoptes menus (i.e. take control with x11vnc). If you don't, it's either a misconfiguration or a bug. In that case, please mention the following, for both the server and the clients: distro+version, DE, if you're using LTSP or not (netbooted thin clients), and the output of `epoptes`, if you run it on a terminal on the server, and `sudo epoptes-client`, if you run it from vt1 (alt+ctrl+f1) on a client. For example, a possible cause could be that your networking is configured to work only after login (network manager user connections instead of system connections). -- You received this question notification because you are a member of Epoptes Developers, which is an answer contact for Epoptes. -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~epoptes Post to : epoptes@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~epoptes More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Question #206412 on Epoptes changed: https://answers.launchpad.net/epoptes/+question/206412 Olivier Korn posted a new comment: This was indeed the problem. Thank you for your help and your kindness. Wouldn't it be possible to mark each package as mutually exclusive of the other? This way, it won't be possible to install both of them? I can't remember having installed the serveur (nor the client) on Edubuntu 12.04. Were they both installed by default? Eventually, was this documented somewhere? Maybe the script itself could output a warning for us to have something to read in client logs. Thank you very much, anyway. (For my records: to install properly epoptes-client means also to uninstall properly epoptes). -- You received this question notification because you are a member of Epoptes Developers, which is an answer contact for Epoptes. -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~epoptes Post to : epoptes@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~epoptes More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
