The_Code of live

So Google Summer of Code is definitely over!

It was a great experience starting working in open source with such a program! My work on Easy-LTSP will continue and as you might have read her i have started to work on another great project for openSUSE, the openSUSE education project. The graphical part of the YaST module is almost done, so no new screens of that (only ycp code now).

But Easy-LTSP has some eyecandy for you Enjoy the new Easy-LTSP logo:

Thanks to cyberorg for having such a great artist on the hand. But that’s not all cyberorg did for Easy-LTSP, he made a great video about using Kiwi-LTSP and Easy-LTSP to setup an LTSP server on openSUSE.

For those of you waiting for photos of Hackweek and FrOSCon, be patient hopefully tomorrow i have more time!

After the release of the new Easy-LTSP packages, there was a little bug preventing it from starting It is fixed now and new packages are available in BuildService server:ltsp repository. And of course a tarball can be found here.

But not only the bug was fixed! Thanks to mhutch GLib.ExceptionManager is now caring about unhandled exceptions.

The Kiwi-LTSP module got a new look and the Kiwi localapp variable found it’s way inside the module

First implementation of an undo/redo functionality based on the savings is also in the package!

So go out and check it out! Please report bugs or enhancements to devzilla bugtracker.

As GSoC is almost over Easy-LTSP is going into a new round!

Some new task found there way into this version:

• Language
• X Security
• Keyboard
• RDesktop

I also made some changes to the look of the whole app.

So go and check it out! If you want to have the Kiwi-LTSP specific module integrated run configure –with-kiwi

If you find any Bugs or want to request a task or have any other comment, feel free to leave it here or use Devzilla Bugtracker for it!

Last but not least a little screenshot:

As always feedback and comments are welcome! More info on this version coming tomorrow!

Cheers The_Code

Almost one week since my last post (i should really do this more often). So what happened to Easy-LTSP the last week?

• Google send me a “beautiful” book

So what’s up next? => CODING!

Feedback and comments on spec are always welcome!

…an empty Blog. But now the time has come to spread the word about The_Code having a project at the Google Summer of Code!

This Blog will be about my GSoC Project an LTSP GUI. I am proud of being chosen to do this project during the summer and looking forward to a great time.
