Do you have more information on what eharrison needs to have done? I'm somewhat familiar with LTSP and have more than a passing familiarity with fedora too.
Hey Richard, So i was in attendance at Fudcon when Warren sort of spoke about the need for some fedora community involvement to get ltsp integrated. Thanks to a change in personal circumstances I can commit some time in moving the integration effort forward. I've already talked to warren a little bit in irc, but it really comes down to what specific technical things need to be done, and a plan of attack towards integration. Richard have you gotten anywhere with getting a list of specific task items? Have you had a discussion with eharrison yet? Is the discussion outlined in http://wiki.ltsp.org/twiki/bin/view/Ltsp/MueKow and http://wiki.ltsp.org/twiki/bin/view/Ltsp/IntegratingLtsp still the state of the art for the ltsp5 vision? Do we have a repository of scripts/bits/voodoo that eharrison has been working on as a starting point? Do we have to modify some existing packaging for necessary software pieces? Do we need to submit and maintain some additional packages? I'm looking at step 2 of http://wiki.ltsp.org/twiki/bin/view/Ltsp/IntegratingLtsp and I see some hangups. * ltspfsd (no project space known, for more info see bottom of this wiki article) if we are going to be integrating ltspfsd we really need to have an established upstream development defined lp_server (not available, due to licensing) ?????? Are we going to run into a licensing full-stop? Also are there any blockers in the list at http://wiki.ltsp.org/twiki/bin/view/Ltsp/Ltsp5MinimumRequirements ? While we wait for eharrison to point us in the right direction, it probably wouldn't hurt for the rest of us to take a real hard look at debian's or ubuntu's ltsp-server-standalone package to see where the particularly magical incantations are in setting up the ltsp thinclient environment. Oh and kids... go checkout koolu.com, looks like they are planning to offer OPLC-grade hardware repackaged as ltsp thinclients. -jef _______________________________________________ Fedora-education-list mailing list Fedora-education-list@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-education-list
