[Ltsp-discuss] newbie: changing pulseaudio file in chroot

[Dirk Hennrichs]

hallo, i'm new to ltsp. finally i set up ltsp5 server. thin client can log
in to the ltsp server but there is no sound. pulseaudio -vvv debug shows me
in the clients environment that there is a wrong entry in /etc/pulseaudio/
default.pa. i need to comment out a line in that file. but how can i change
this in the clients compressed image?? i read something about chroot can do
that but i dont understand that. i use kiwi 5.0.5 on suse 13.1. bootimage
is served per aoe to the clients. can somebody tell me how i can change
default.pa file of pulseaudio in clients compressed image so that i can
enable sound to them? thanks a lot and sorry for my bad english!!!

Hi Dirk,

You'll probably get a tonne of responses to this. :)

***@server: /usr/sbin/chroot /opt/ltsp/i386/ /bin/bash

What that does: chroot with /opt/ltsp/i386/ as / and run /bin/bash as the shell. 'exit' or Ctrl-d to exit the chroot.

You should also have a program called ltsp-chroot on your server you should use that instead:

If you used the default settings when setting up the client image then you can just call:

***@server: /usr/sbin/ltsp-chroot

man ltsp-chroot for the settings or edit /etc/ltsp/ltsp-chroot.conf to set them as you want.

If you're serving images via nbd you'll have to rebuild the image after you've edited the chroot.
***@server: /usr/sbin/ltsp-update-image

DO NOT DO this if you're serving the image via NFS.

Cheers,
lance

hi lance, ah ok i think i understand. on kiwi the program is called
kiwi-chroot i always edited the file but after exit from chroot and booting
the client the file was unchanged. i'll have to the ltsp-update-image that
will then compress the chroot environment to the image the thin client will
boot then. aaaaaaah i'll try this on work at monday. you helped me a lot to
understand that thanks!!!!
