Just for the record I thought I should post an update on this: Still having same troubles with sound - no progress there.
on the other issue - the unreliable boots, I have had some success. I initially thought it had something to do with nfs and tried http://wiki.ltsp.org/twiki/bin/view/Ltsp/NFS#NFS_Server_not_responding and i thought this fixed the problem - i was i bit premature in this assessment, the first few boots after this were just lucky so I thought the problem was fixed -no so. I then went on a tangent with bootchart, trying to get it to run in the client boot so I could see where it was hanging. so far I have not got that working but in the process i noticed the "quiet splash" directives in /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386/pxelinux/default I took these out so I could see what was happening at boot and now it boots every time! - could it be as simple as a problem in the splash progress bar?? I have now booted successfully 8 times with no problems with the quiet splash directives I am lucky if I get one good boot in three. Ive never been a big fan of hiding the boot process anyway... rob On 27/11/06, Rob Shugg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Ok, so far the apps that send sound out of the server are: > -xmms > -realplay > -totem > > Sounds that come out on the thin client are: > -mouse over on mp3 file on desktop(mpg123) > -test button in sound preferences > > I put the export line in the realplay script as suggested and found : > export ESPEAKER='192.168.0.150:16001' > in the output file so I think this maybe rules out possibility 2 > > Also I have not been able to get any to the top three to work again > from the command line, so Im not sure whats happening there - its > probably dependant on some sequence of events i had done in the lead > up to that testing that made them work... > > I put in a bug report last night as Im pretty sure this is a wrinkle. > Ill add this extra info to the report to give a more complete picture > https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/ltsp/+bug/73346 > > > > > > Is there an Edubuntu thin client troubleshooting page?
