Rather a pain, I filed a bug but after asking me to attach the output of several commands I haven't seen much activity on that. Do you think using APM might help in that situation? -- -Sim?n A.

I've no idea to be honest.  It might be worth a try.  If it fixes the problem you can report that straight to the acpi guys and see what they say.  You should make sure it's still an issue with Feisty if you can first.

Hmmm, unfortunately I no longer work at that school, so I'm not sure what I can really do...I'll see if there's a way I might be able to explain steps to take to my old boss, but my feeling is he might just say the benefits aren't worth the trouble. > Gavin -- -Sim?n A.

I have begun reading about establishing Linux enterprise cluster (see this book listed on Amazon<<A href="http://www.amazon.com/Linux-Enterprise-Cluster-Available-Commodity/dp/1593270364" target=_blank>http://www.amazon.com/Linux-Enterprise-Cluster-Available-Commodity/dp/1593270364</A>>.) This is quite involved, whereas setting up Edubuntu is a snap. Is it possible you can get access to a better caliber PC to use as a server?  Then you'd have 20 workstations.

Though all the parameters in the lts.conf needed for local device mount is enabled i just cant find the reason why the disks are not being mounted. Please help me with information about ltspfsd in edubuntu too, if people can. Looking forward for your reply soon. -- Shishir Jha EPC 1970,GPO 8975, KTM,NEPAL -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
