LTSP Forum

[drink]

I'm just here to lend my support to the idea of a LTSP forum, so here's my metoo. I'm bald right now, because I just tore out all my hair. LTSP forum ftw etc tyvm hand.

So is there any movement on this??? Like I said. I have been posting all over the net, and even made a how to.....but whats the point if there is no central place.
Ya know...come to think about it...worst case scenario, I could talk to the freespire guys and see if thet could set one up in the freespire forum. Might be another possibility. i just thought it would make more scents to have it here due to Edubuntu.

Funnily enough, I've found the best info on Ubuntu LTSP outside of Ubuntu.

Novell has guides for setting up Ubuntu LTSP for every version (the Gutsy one is incomplete at the moment though)

And there's some discussion on Ubuntu LTSP over at Freespire

http://ubuntuforums.org/private.php?...pm&pmid=390910

I've not heard back from my lead, so no news on that yet. Seems odd to have to get the responsible dev involved for something that comes preloaded in Edubuntu. It's hardly a third-party app. Mr Shuttleworth got the LTSP dev fully onboard to help develop and integrate LTSP 5 Mue-kow.

Maybe I should have been more generic and asked for a 'Thin Client' forum instead!

Good idea! Who's the Thin Client developers? What about Clients? No matter how much weight they're packin' or not packin'. Thin, or! Fat.
Your first link is good. Your second is whadayacall'dit.
Sorry I didn't see your post earlier. I went to town. First on this,
LTSP Documentation Links http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.p...=documentation well, it was a small town!
and then on shanks pony. haha!
Google shanks pony http://www.google.ca/search?hl=en&q=...e+Search&meta=
I got my post at Documentation of Ubuntu cleaned up a bit tonite.(tonight?) This evening. Well I knocked the corners off anyway.
I really get the feeling I don't know what the heck I'm doin'. If there was a forum with...ok . I don't know what to say. And that doesn't happen all the time ya know. ha! It'd sure be grande to get brave enough, and fortunate enough, and skilled enough, and whatever else enough, to get a string of computers together at a drop in center down town! That'd be up town! I like this. I'll like it even more once I get a few things read!

It's half the problem. I've not come across anyone with encyclopaedic knowledge of LTSP, but will a collaborative effort we might get the bones of user guide together.

I was thinkin' about that pulling together too. That's where the documentation at help.ubuntu.com/community suffers. If the info is spread all over the internet, it makes it more difficult to transfer it into a page there. With help.ubuntu.com. It's about the same as Samba. Just found this by typing in help.ubuntu.com/Wiki
WikiCourse/BasicIntroduction https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wi...icIntroduction
I guess this is the new one here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WikiGuide
At https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ when we can get

... https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Ub...ght=%28ltsp%29

At the top of the page your are lookin at right now,

The thing is that MueKow is designed to be integrated into distributions, maintained by distributions, and supported by distributions. Each distribution is implementing differently (even Debian and Ubuntu) and I want to do things the right way - if only there were some documentation on what the right way is!

For a supposedly open distribution, it often seems like very little of the reasoning behind the activity is made available to the users...

The Novell stuff is surprisingly Ubuntu specific!

The likelihood of an LTSP/Thin Client forum isn't looking good at the moment. We seem to have been stalled by the whole 'you need a dev' thing, which seems a bit daft for what is essentially a major built-in feature of Edubuntu.

Anyway.. I'd leave it for a week and then I'll get some threads going in one of the forums (think we might as well just pick one at random!) and hopefully get enough collective knowledge to start knocking the wiki into shape.
