Java is confusing me at the moment. Seems they've suddenly shot through a few releases and they're now on 11. Are we meant to be upgrading? Is 11 backwards compatible with 8?

That Xbox will be at deaths door. You can repeat the process of stripping the parts down, cleaning etc and you'll get another boot up but it'll happen again.

Why have Microsoft gone to this length to being completely unhelpful with the setup?

Has anyone encountered an issue where a student can view/access other student areas when they go to save/open files in GIMP?

For people with desktops, have you had any staff moaning that they can't work from home?

Chrome 69 changes how it acts towards Flash. I assume they haven't updated GPO settings to coincide? or it even ignores the GPO? https://www.theinquirer.net/inquirer/news/3061489/chrome-69-will-rollout-new-design-whilst-borking-flash-even-further

I'm fed up of the AD sync failing every year for matching up the new year 7s in MLS so I've done it manually this time.

I was thinking that.

Hi all, I have been asked if student birthdays can be added to our digital signage. This would involve exporting the data from SIMS into a spreadsheet and somehow getting XIBO to display it. Has anyone had to deal with anything like this yet in regards to GDPR? Thanks

I think if you sign up for their course (free) then you can use it https://www.netacad.com/courses/packet-tracer

Yeah the scene is legit, you can find it easily on Twitter. Oh well. The entire of Ecclestones first ep leaked a week before it was on TV so not quite as bad as that.

Yeah we have had staff complain here too. Oh well.

How much is Edulink One for SIMS?

How much does it cost?

Mixcraft works very well on our network, copes with roaming profiles without any bother but I did have to install it individually. There are some instructions that came with it for network installs but whenever I deployed it, it simply never installed.

TightVNC?

PDQ recently did a webcast about deploying AutoCAD, your answer maybe in there.

Is there going to be a similar offer again soon?

No one can buy the graphics cards they need!

Yeah the docker thing is horrendous. I've kept it on an earlier version with a web server.

Yeah it installs to their profile so we have it as part of our redirected desktop and have a shortcut to the web version as a backup.

I watched ep 9 & 10 on Monday. I think it's gone a bit too silly for my liking.

Quick question... If you roll everything out, perfect start menu etc but then a few days later you deploy an app and you need to add the shortcut of that app to your new perfect start menu, how do you do that quickly and easily? Do you have to go back to your test image, recreate your start menu and deploy it out? Is there an easier way?

My ticket has been open since 4th Sept about an AD issue ha

Sounds about right! My initial ticket was 4th September and up to a couple of days ago I had heard nothing. My issue still persists and all quiet again..
