There are some issues I have with Edubuntu Feisty,i.e 7.04, I couldn't shutdown the system from gnome desktop and when I applied the recent update of 25 june 2007, the system's response to mouse activities on the desktop beame very slow. I had to select desktop items like icons etc and wait for say 30 secs before they respond.
Are there any clues as to how to solve this type of problem? Thanks!

The thin client login screen is too high for the monitor (1200x1024). Where can I fix that, please ?

I would much rather have everything running on Linux. (No need for another server /higher load on current server using VMware machine.) I have Crossover Office installed. At home on my Ubuntu Feisty desktop I have installed one program and it seems to run ok. At school on K12LTSP6 (Fedora 6) I was unsuccessful installing a similar program. Now assuming I can get the programs to run on the server, how do I get sound to the terminals? Will it automatically redirect or do I have to change the audio output for crossover office? I have tried using the esd driver without success for MSPowerpoint. Pulse Audio sounds promising. Running multimedia apps over the network lead to subpar performance. I am hoping that pulse audio will fix this problem. What is the position of pulse audio at present? Can I run my Windows multimedia programs successfully on terminals using Crossover Office and pulse audio? If so are there any tips how to do it? As well as the K12LTSP6 server at school, I also have and edubuntu VM that I can use for testing, if changing to Ubuntu might solve my problems. Thanks.

Since Edubuntu feisty has pulse support, why not just try it and see? I've never used crossover apps with sound on a terminal, and I'll wager not many have, so I'd say just try it and see if it works. Scott -- Scott L.

The sound works on the thin clients with multimedia apps like Totem. But Flash player apps, like videos on Youtube or the flash online game "Dofus" don't produce any sound.

Quite so. It's in the FAQ (which we must soon publicise): https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EdubuntuFAQ > If you want just use dpkg to open it in a test directory so you can > see where the ONE file should go. You can do: dpkg --contents <packagefile> > I did this the first time to make sure I was not changing a ton of files. > But it ends up being just one file. As I understand it apt and dpkg shouldn't ever overwrite files without at least asking you first.

I think there is a bug report on it as well. Does anyone have any other ideas for making it easy to setup and modify Gnome users? I know KDE has a great tool and I know Sabayon from past usage can be good. Then there is pessulus (sorry about the spelling) but it is done per user. Also the skel folder is nice for new users but to change all users is what I am looking for. -- Alfred Nutile River Valley Web Hosting/Design/Tech Support ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program. ------------------------------ -- edubuntu-users mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/edubuntu-users End of edubuntu-users Digest, Vol 13, Issue 32 ********************************************** ____________________________________________________________________________________ Don't pick lemons.
