Re: [Ltsp-discuss] MIT's Scratch Program In An LTSP

[Robert L. <rob...@gm...>]

Hey Matt,

Well it was so long ago a lot of the install details are fuzzy. But I
haven't been running anything as local apps. I would like to take some of
the load off the server with that except we use the Epoptes program alot to
keep the kids towing the line. I don't think epoptes would let me see what
they are looking at as a fat client but am not positive. Anyway, no fat
clients  so I don't need to worry about chroot.

I don't remember where I got the download from ... just thought to check my
default download folder and it has a Scratch file there
scratch_1.4.0.6~dfsg1-4.debian.tar.bz2 . I also checked from the cl by
doing apt-get install and it reported back the latest version was
installed. I'm still guessing but my hunch would be I gotr the file from
MIT. So do you think that is the issue? Simple enough to try BRB sorry to
keep you waiting :-)

It would have been an easy enough fix but it didn't work.

I got these errors with the cl install:
Processing triggers for shared-mime-info ...
Unknown media type in type 'all/all'
Unknown media type in type 'all/allfiles'
Unknown media type in type 'uri/mms'
Unknown media type in type 'uri/mmst'
Unknown media type in type 'uri/mmsu'
Unknown media type in type 'uri/pnm'
Unknown media type in type 'uri/rtspt'
Unknown media type in type 'uri/rtspu'

Here is a screenshot of the error scratch throws
