marclaporte: joined #clearfoundation
cc-daveloper: Hey marc…welcome back
TimBurgess: afternoon! hows things?
MAvL: joined #clearfoundation
Hey!
cc-daveloper: Hey
you had a question about how to run the Webconfig from the Server itself
there are two ways to do this
you can tweak the clear console to allow all the...
he's gone :(
I'll snag him when he comes back
MAvL: joined #clearfoundation
back!
i had to cook some dinner for myself
men i'm tired it was busy day
i think it's going to be a early night
first some computerization
cc-daveloper: you were asking about running Webconfig on the ClearOS server itself
MAvL: yes
your right yesterday evening
I didn't know that this was possible
Zentyal also has this feature
cc-daveloper: there are two ways
MAvL: ok
cc-daveloper: you can modify it so that the default view has all the features…the problem is that the lightweight web browser is not sufficient to run all the modules.
the second way is to run the ClearOS Core desktop and use a web browser under that
that is the way I do it.
MAvL: ok
if i'm correct Zentyal also has a desktop running
So if you want to run all modules you have to with option 2
to go with option 2
cc-daveloper: some of the reports don't render correctly running under ClearConsole
MAvL: okay
cc-daveloper: http://www.clearcenter.com/support/documentation/clearos_guides/install_graphical_desktop_for_clearos
I use that guide
MAvL: nice!
cc-daveloper: then install firefox
yum install firefox
MAvL: checking!
whoa! that cool!
cc-daveloper: yes…didn't know we had a complete desktop OS did you?!!?
MAvL: :)
that is just what i want to say
cc-daveloper: for extra eye candy, I set the desktop wallpaper to cycle through the different images
MAvL: compleet with clearOS start icon
cc-daveloper: :)
So I was thinking the other day that ClearFoundation needs a mascot
I thought that something New Zealand-esque would fit the bill.
I considered the Kiwi and though … way over done.
MAvL: hmm, not a bad idea
cc-daveloper: Then I thought about the kakapo might be a good one…they are very funny.

But then I found the Kea and fell in love.

MAvL: haha funny bird
cc-daveloper: I thought…here is a smart bird that loves to hack.
MAvL: wow clever bird
cc-daveloper: a lot smarter than some dumb old panda...hehe
MAvL: i agree the lastest bird is a good mascot
i like the idea
cc-daveloper: lots of parallels
They are protected by New Zealand law (as is ClearOS)
MAvL: oaky
cc-daveloper: They are smart alone…but can work well in groups (like our community)
MAvL: :)
cc-daveloper: And they are not afraid to approach people for the things they need (like what we hope for newcomers to ClearOS)
MAvL: but with this mascot you want a new label/banner on Clearfoundation/Clearcenter site?
sell this ClearOS mascot?
?
or intregrate the bird in the Clearfoundation logo
btw i have ClearOS webconfig running on the server itself
eh, a vm
cool!
now some shortcut on the desktop
cc-daveloper: I don't think we'd change the logo but we can find ways to integrate him….time to start a contest for a name and get graphic art submissions.
you should check out the virtual box manager in the Desktop ClearOS environment
works great
MAvL: you mean running virtualbox on ClearOS?
hmm with a destop environment you have more possibilities
cc-daveloper: yeah…here is the how to...
http://www.clearcenter.com/support/documentation/clearos_guides/install_virtualization_using_virtualbox
MAvL: hmmm with that guide it's really easy to install
very clearly written
it's time to go to bed
cc-daveloper: gnight
thanks for all you do
MAvL: have a nice day and thanks for the tips
no problem
:)
