This page describes issues which we need to fix before making a Sarge-based DebianEdu release. The remaining bugs that is not yet verified fixed should be availible from Skolelinux Bugzilla Release Critical bugs not fixed
As of 2006-02-06 22:14 GMT, there is 2 bugs that will block the release of a new Sarge Based Skolelinux.
Fixed issues:
slow logins with LDM (LTSP Display Manager) (http://bugs.skolelinux.no/show_bug.cgi?id=1010) - The LDM startup time issue should be fixed. We now generate the X authorisation file after X is up and running, and the delay previously seen is gone.
our testsuite still reports errors when the system is installed (http://bugs.skolelinux.no/show_bug.cgi?id=566)
kdepim-kio-plugins to the CD (http://bugs.skolelinux.no/995)
exim accepted smtp and imap unencrypted and w/o smtp_auth (http://bugs.skolelinux.no/998)
- We decided to stop courier-imap by default, so we have to make sure that it is not running by default. Maybe after the release we will enable some tls settings, but not for this release.
- The installation now sets up a thin client solution based on LTSP, which is possible to extend to a diskless/stateless workstation using a separate script after the installation is done.
permissions to sound device - the problem is that normal users added with wlus don't have permission to write to the sound device. I believe we agreed on allowing everyone to write to the sound device if onone comes up with a better idea (http://bugs.skolelinux.no/974). There is also some code to use pam-groups, which allows the use of local devices (floppy,sound +++) for the person who logs in on the local console

ntp is not configured as the new ntp-packages doesn't use debconf (which we can preseed) for configuration. Take a look at bug #1024 (http://bugs.skolelinux.no/1024) for more information. We have now implemented a change, but we need someone to test if this works on workstations and thinclient-servers (not combined).
