I have downloaded fl_teachertool-0.70 and followed the manual installation steps at http://www3.telus.net/public/robark/Fl_TeacherTool/installation.html, but still not working. I get "No users logged in" If I run netstat -t -e -n, I see that my test TC user is connected at 172.31.100.100:6001 with group 501 and since at line 1845 in fl_teachertool.cxx I see getstdout_ss(outss, "LANG=C netstat -t -e -n|grep :6000| grep ESTABLISHED |sed -e 's/:/ /g'| sed -e 's/ESTABLISHED/ESTABLISHED /' | awk '{print $9,$6}'|sort|uniq", "ERROR: netstat failed"); the grep statement will always return an empty set and raise the "No users logged in" error. I tried changing the entry in fl_teachertool.cxx to grep :6001, commented out line 1868 that reads dummy.ip= getstdout("getent hosts | grep -w "+dummy.ip+" | awk '{print $2}' ","Error: getent failed"); and recompiled. This did allow fl_teachertool to see my session, but I could not connect to it. Anybody have any thoughts about this?

See the very recent thread "Remote Client > Desktop" I have been testing it with an installation of k12ltsp and love it. Great job! So I am anxious in anticipation for a port to k12linux. You have clear visibility into the port path? One question I have! Is it possible to establish an interactive audio communication link between the server and TC? It would be a great feature to be able to communicate with a student. Maybe have a "Teacher calling" icon pop up on their desktop when you want to communicate with them. Something similar to PGPfone.

You can already send messages (teacher -> student) but I don't know how to do audio. -- Robert Arkiletian Eric Hamber Secondary, Vancouver, Canada From monteslu at cox.net Fri Jun 5 22:41:16 2009 From: monteslu at cox.net (Luis Montes) Date: Fri, 05 Jun 2009 15:41:16 -0700 Subject: fl_teachertool port K12Linux In-Reply-To: References: <4A2882C8.5080006@isp-systems.net> <4A28A654.8060007@isp-systems.net> Message-ID: <4A299F0C.7020102@cox.net> Robert Arkiletian wrote: > > You can already send messages (teacher -> student) but I don't know > how to do audio. > > > > I'm not exactly sure how to do it either, but a remote call to pipe something into festival's text-to-speech engine would be interesting. Selecting a group of students and having both a voice and dialog saying "five minutes until log off time" would be really cool.

I am going to work on trying to get Gnu Gateway (GnuGk) and OhPhone or X-Lite working on server/client to see if this will do it! I have some experience with asterisk and asterisk at home (now trixbox), but I think this may be overkill. However, it probably would be beneficial in some school/industrial environments to have an internal voip system that does not require a PSTN interface.

I don't think audio chat is a feature many teachers would want. I don't need it in my classroom. I think LTSP doesn't support audio from a recording perspective (local mics) either. My main goal now is to make it work with K12Linux. -- Robert Arkiletian Eric Hamber Secondary, Vancouver, Canada From brcisna at eazylivin.net Sat Jun 6 11:10:23 2009 From: brcisna at eazylivin.net (Barry R Cisna) Date: Sat, 06 Jun 2009 06:10:23 -0500 Subject: usb sticks reliability Message-ID: <1244286623.26228.3.camel@localhost.localdomain> Hello All, Curious as to how the reliability of usb sticks showing up on the desktop, regardless of usb 1.1 or 2.0, are at this point on FC10/k12linux?

I have never had any problems with Kingston DataTravelers (from Office Max) or PNY Attaches (from WalMart). They have both shown up on the desktop 100% of the time so far. My testing TC is a Dell C600 laptop with a four port pcmcia Buslink USB 2.0 Card Bus.

I hope you aren't considering deploying a production server running from a USB stick. LiveUSB is only to install it, or to do a temporary demo.

Kid's use them, & they just work, without them thinking about it. It's one of the benefits of the new system, no more MToolsFM. The only thing that's odd is not having to umount. The kids just pull them out and they're ok.
