In this guide you will find useful information for Labdooers (Labdoo users/volunteers), including information about how to sanitize laptops, how to package them ready for traveling, or general tricks and tips among others. While this document attempts to be comprehensive, if you have any questions that do not get answered in this guide, please post them directly in any of the Labdoo Teams and one member of the Labdoo community will provide an answer.
This section describes the first step, where you will learn how to collect unused laptops. Keep reading to discover how.
The first step in the Labdoo process is to identify an unused laptop that can be repurposed for educational means. There are many different ways to identify and rescue laptops that are no longer used. Here are some ways to do so, among others:
Remember that Labdoo will only accept laptops that have at least 1GB of memory RAM and that actually work (the easiest way to check if it does is to turn on the laptop and see if it is running). Otherwise, the laptop would not be suitable for educational purposes and can't be accepted. Note also that even if the battery does not work, the laptop can still be used and accepted as a valid contribution, since it can be plugged in the power source as any other computer. Finally, it's important to make sure you also collect its AC adapter and power cord.
Once you have rescued one or more laptops, you can move on to the next section.
Once you have collected an unused laptop, you need to register it into the Labdoo platform so it can receive a Labdoo ID number. The laptop status gets to be updated when it transits into the next step of the Labdoo process via this unique Labdoo ID number. Users can use it to trace the progress of the laptop. It also helps the hub managers to plan for their resources.This provides transparency and accountability in the Labdoo process.
Please follow these simple steps below to tag a laptop:
Figure 1. To tag a laptop, go to 'Dootronics' and click on the menu option 'Tag it!'. |
Figure 2. Example of tagging procedure. |
This section describes the second step, where you will learn how to sanitize a laptop and install the Labdoo's educational package. Keep reading by clicking on the menu below to discover how.
1. Download Labtix.iso
Start by downloading and installing the FileZilla FTP client application from this link: https://filezilla-project.org/
Then, open FileZilla and connect to the Labdoo FTP server using these parameters (see also Figure 1):
Host: sftp://ftp.labdoo.org (this link can only be open once in FileZilla)
User: labdoo
Password: labdoo
Port: 22
Figure 1. Use the parameters shown in this screenshot to connect to the Labdoo FTP server with FileZilla. |
In the 'remote site' window of FileZilla, go to the folder /install-disk
. In this folder, you will find the file Labtix.iso. Right-click on this file with your mouse and select the option 'Download'. That way the file Labtix.iso will be downloaded to your local computer.
2. Create a bootable USB with Labtix.iso
Download the Universal USB Installer from this link: https://www.pendrivelinux.com/universal-usb-installer-easy-as-1-2-3/
Run this application by double clicking on the downloaded file. You will see the following screen, where you will need to accept the license agreement:
Figure 2. Download and run the Universal USB Installer and accept the license agreement. |
Next, insert a blank USB pendrive into one of the USB ports in your computer. We recommend to choose one with at least 2GB of storage. Note that all the data you had previously saved in the pendrive will be erased, so make sure to have a backup copy.
Then, fill in the fields in the next screen by using the parameters that appear in the next figure. As the screenshot shows, in the field Step 2 please select the Labtix.iso file previously downloaded and then select the corresponding USB pendrive in Step 3:
Figure 3. Use the parameters shown in this screenshot to create the bootable USB pendrive. |
Continue by accepting every following screen as shown in the next figures:
Figure 4. Accept this screen. |
Figure 5. Accept this screen as well. |
That's it. Now you have a bootable USB pendrive with the Labtix ISO. Go to the next wiki page to continue with the sanitation process.
In this step, you will need an external hard drive where you will be downloading one or more Labdoo images from the Labdoo FTP server. We recommend choosing a hard drive with at least 100GB, although one with a larger capacity (e.g., 200GB, 500GB or 1TB) would be even better in case you wanted to download some of the larger images.
Start by connecting again to the Labdoo's FTP server using FileZilla (see the previous section for a description on how to do this).
Then, go to '/'. In this location, you will find multiple directories of the form XX_images, where XX indicates the language of the image. Each of these directories contains multiple images organized by size. For instance, inside the English images directory 'EN_English_images', you will find the directory 'PAE64_20_04_LTS_EN_160'. The name of this directory lets us know that we are facing a (PAE) 64-bit image based on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, with English as the default language and with a total of 160GB of educational content. The size of the file, 160GB in this case, corresponds to the minimum size that the hard drive must have in order to be able to store this image.
Make sure that, in the field 'Local site' , you select the external hard drive where you want to download the images.
Now go ahead and download the image that you are interested in. For instance, if you are interested in downloading the image 'PAE64_20_04_LTS_EN_160', the one we mentioned above, travel to the directory '/install-disk/EN_English_images/', right-click on the directory 'PAE64_20_04_LTS_EN_160' and select the option 'Download'. The image will be automatically downloaded to your external hard drive. Download as many images as you need, provided that you have enough space in your external hard drive. Note that the process of downloading one or more images could take a significant amount of time, depending on the speed of your connection.
Figure 1. Directory structure where you can find all the Labdoo images. |
Plug the Labtix Bootable pendrive into one of the USB ports of the computer that you want to sanitize. Start the computer and verify that the Labtix software boots correctly. If it does, the following screen will show up:
Figure 1. Initial Labtix screen when a computer is booted. |
If you don't see the screen shown above, it most likely means that you need to modify the boot order to make sure the computer properly loads the Labtix software stored on the USB pendrive. In this case, please follow the instructions on this wiki page to change the boot order of the computer and ensure that the USB pendrive is selected as the first boot device. After doing this, reboot the computer and, if the screen shown in figure 1 finally appears, you will know that Labtix is correctly booted.
Upon reaching the screen in Figure 1, select the first option "antiX" and press enter. This will take you to the next screen:
Figure 2. Once in this view, double-click on the icon 'Labdoo installer'. |
Note that in the upper-right corner of the screen you will see a summary of the key parameters extracted from the laptop. It includes the following information:
In the screen shown in figure 2, make sure to enter the name of your computer's hard drive. This name is typically of the form Sdx (for instance, sda, sdb, sdc, etc.), but not necessarily; it depends on your computer. The actual name can be found in the 'Sdx' field located in the upper-right corner of the screen. For instance, in Figure 2, the name of the hard drive is 'sda'. To be sure that it is in fact the actual hard drive of your computer, you can double-click on the application GParted, which will show you all the drives attached to your computer.
Click on OK to go to the next screen:
Figure 3. Parameters needed to initiate the installation. |
In this screen, you will need to specify the following parameters:
After you have populated all the parameters above, click "OK" on all the following screens. Then the actual process of shredding and installation of the selected Labdoo image will initiate. Note that this process could take a while, even more than an hour, depending on the size of the disk and the size of the selected image.
The third and last step is delivering the laptop you sanitized in the previous step to an educational project. To complete this process, do as follows:
Once you have completed any of the two steps above, you can now deliver the laptop to the chosen project. Finally, make sure to update the status of your laptop to S4 and assign it to the corresponding project. (If you don't know how to update the status of your laptop to S4, see this wiki page.)
Congratulations, if you have reached this point, by now you have already improved someone's life by providing them an education!
Labdoo recommends installing by cloning images with the free installation tool Labtix, developed by Labdoo helpers. As you could see in the video tutorial, there are numerous setting and selection options to adapt Labtix to your requirements.
Since Ubuntu version 20.04 LTS (April 2020), there are only 64 bit versions as hybrid images that can boot in both legacy and UEFI mode. To install current Ubuntu images, however, Labtix version 2 had to be adapted.
Labtix is regularly developed further. Please check our FTP server regularly for updates http://ftp.labdoo.org/download/install-disk/Labtix/.
32 bit versions of the images cannot be installed with Labtix 2 anymore. If you still want to work with the old 32 bit images you have to use Labtix 1. However, neither the 32 bit images nor the installation tool Labtix 1 will be maintained further. For the 32 bit Ubuntu versions the support of the developers has also expired. More about Labtix 1 on https://platform.labdoo.org/de/content/labtix-1-archive.
Version | Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (64 Bit) | Ubuntu 22.04 LTS | Linux Mint 22 (based on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS) |
---|---|---|---|
Labtix 2 | |||
Labtix 3 | |||
Support Ubuntu bis | 2025 | 2027 | 2029 |
Note for advanced users: Labtix has a persistence mode, i.e. you can make your own changes to Labtix and save them. You act as root user in fact. The password (only needed if you "get stuck" in the terminal when booting ) is "labdoo". But beware - as root you can destroy Labtix or bloat it by too many changes. Labtix fits on a CD when delivered. The tool ISO-snapshot also allows you to create a new ISO-file that takes over possible changes to the system.
Labtix comes with various tools and installation tools https://platform.labdoo.org/en/content/preinstalled-tools-labtix.
Most of them can be found directly on the desktop. You have to decide for yourself which tool suits you best:
You can find the installation tools directly in the context menu of zzzFM:
On the Labtix desktop you will find a Docs folder containing manuals in PDF format. However, we recommend that you first watch the individual steps and tools as a YouTube video tutorial.
Sometimes you have to select certain settings in the boot menu because of the hardware, e.g. with netbooks or Apple laptops often failsafe mode etc. Otherwise it can happen that Labtix does not boot, hangs at terminal level (the desktop does not appear) or the monitor remains dark.
Then try out the options in Failsafe Mode or Safe Video Mode. This is also explained in the above YouTube tutorial.
You can find all video tutorials on our YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/user/LabdooDACH/playlists and on our FTP server http://ftp.labdoo.org/download/Public/videos/for-technicians/.
All Labtix versions can be downloaded from the FTP server
current version: http://ftp.labdoo.org/download/install-disk/
older version (archive): http://ftp.labdoo.org/download/archive/Labtix_former_releases/
Labtix 2 (from 2022)
Since its launch in 2017, Labtix has become the most popular installer and remover tool within the Labdoo project. Labtix Release 1 is based on a 32-bit Antix 17 (2017) kernel. Labtix 2 is based on a 64-bit Antix 21 (2021) kernel.
Don't put Labtix 1 too far away as this "old" version works well with "old" hardware. And the new Labtix version 2 fits the more modern your donated laptop is, which requires current drivers that are only available in 2. And cloning images of 22.04 LTS and higher Labtix 2 is mandatory.
Ubuntu 22.04 LTS introduced a new boot partition format (grub2 core.img). Labtix 1 and also older Clonezilla versions do not know this format and therefore cannot clone current images on Ubuntu 22.04 and higher! Please try whether Labtix 2 starts with a setting such as failsafe or safe graphics if there is a problem. Then there would be Parted Magic as another installation tool on the web. Or you would have to take Labtix 1 and an image based on 20.04 LTS.
However, we recommend using Labtix 2 by default as it comes with many improvements and features:
Any image release can be processed with any Labtix release, fully compatible.
Labtix 1 (2017 - 2021)
Based on Antix 17 (2017) you get a complete set of refurbishment and installation tools. Labtix 1 runs on 32-bit and 64-bit CPUs. The drivers included in Labtix 1 work best on older hardware (approx. 2008 - 2018, difficult to define exactly, it's best to try it).
for Labtix
Looking through a donated laptop
In order to start Labtix or Labdoo, settings in the UEFI may need to be changed. UEFI has replaced the old BIOS system, but can usually still be used in the same way as the old BIOS interfaces.
UEFI Settings
On some laptops it is necessary to change UEFI settings:
BIOS settings
On some laptops it is necessary to change BIOS settings:
BIOS Settings | Explanation |
---|---|
Secure Boot | Must always be turned off (disabled). Sometimes an administrator password must be set in the UEFI to deactivate Secure Boot. The admin password can then be removed again. Labtix does not start in secure boot mode but shows secure boot mode in the boot menu. In rare cases, however, an externally installed Labdoo installation boots on a computer with Secure Boot activated. |
Trusted Platform Module (TPM) | TPM is a security chip that secures a computer. Ubuntu-Mate, which forms the basis for Labdoo images, is TPM certified. TPM should only be switched off if Labdoo does not boot. |
UEFI | Up to Ubuntu 20.04 LTS It is recommended to disable UEFI and enable Legacy/CSM. However, there is also a concept for a UEFI-based installation developed by Labdoo helpers for 20.04 LTS. From Ubuntu 22.04 LTS a separate concept was developed for Ubuntu so that both UEFI and legacy/CSM installations are possible. Note: On some computers, Labtix starts and the image installation goes smoothly. But when you restart the laptop you get messages like "Invalid Partition table!" or similar and the laptop doesn't boot up. Then please set the UEFI mode or both (UEFI and Legacy) in the BIOS. In very stubborn cases, the tool uses SuperGrub2Disk (https://www.supergrubdisk.org) to start Labdoo. The bootloader Grub can be reinstalled using the terminal command “sudo grub-install /dev/sda”. An internet connection is required to download the required files! |
Turbo-Boost | If Turbo Boost is activated, the processor may become significantly too hot when operated under load. In Labtix you can tell that under full load (e.g. with the Stress_Cpu tool) the clock frequency is in the 3Ghz range or higher. As a rule, the CPU temperature then rises well above 70 degrees, which can lead to long-term damage to the CPU. That's why it makes sense to switch off the turbo boost as a precaution. If the turbo boost cannot be deactivated or the temperature is still too high, the Cpupower-Gui tool in Labtix can temporarily help. In Labdoo, the maximum CPU frequency must be permanently limited using the script temperature_workaround.sh in the /scripts/temperature_workaround folder on the desktop! |
Check the hardware with Labtix
System requirements (currently on https://www.labdoo.org/deu/en/faq#FAQ04)
Does the donated device meet our minimum requirements (3-4 GB RAM, max. 12 years old, min Windows 7 or higher upon delivery)? https://www.labdoo.org/deu/en/faq#FAQ04
You should look through a donated computer before installing it. It makes no sense to give a laptop that overheats in cool regions to hot countries. Or if the hard drive is already "crumbling", how will it survive transport and operation in hot regions? That's why Labtix comes with useful tools for not only the hard drive, but also speakers, temperature curves under load, and much more. more to check.
Recommended hardware checks
Tool | Check |
---|---|
GSmart / DiskCheck | The “Disk_Check” icon on the desktop opens the GsmartControl tool. Checks the status of the target hard drive, usually “sda”. The more “red” notices or icons and the darker red they are, the sooner the hard drive should be replaced. |
StressCpu / psensor | The maximum temperature should be around 55 to 65°C under normal load, depending on the CPU/GPU type and the ambient temperature. To put load on the CPU, the "Stress CPU" script starts on the desktop (triggers "stress --cpu -8" in a terminal). Watch the temperature display of the CPU sensors in psensor. Stress CPU starts after 10 seconds and runs at full CPU load for 60 seconds in order not to damage the CPU and cooling system.
Under full load the temperatures often rise to over 70°C, less would be better. Many manufacturers specify an acceptable maximum temperature (CPU under full load) of 75° degrees. If temperatures rise to 80°C or higher under load, Stress CPU stops immediately to avoid damage to the processor and cooling system. Then the cooling system definitely needs to be revised (e.g. clean the fan or replace the cooler paste/cooling pads). An overheated cooling system can also be recognized by the fact that the copper-colored heat conductor has turned bluish.
On some devices with Intel i3/5/7 processors, it is helpful to switch off the "Intel Turbo Boost" (it can also be called something else on some devices!) in the BIOS/UEFI in order to get the temperature below 75° degrees during full load. If the device is running in Turbo Boost mode and this cannot be switched off in the UEFI (recognizable by the fact that the clock frequency of the processor is in the 3 GHz range or higher), the clock frequency can be temporarily reduced using the Cpupower-Gui tool (in the top panel of Labtix). become. Values around 2.5 GHz have proven to be useful. After installing Labdoo, the maximum CPU frequency must be permanently limited in Labdoo using the temperature-workaround script. |
Speaker Test | Alternately checks the left and right speakers. |
CD/DVD Test | Play an audio CD using Audacious. |
If you already have a bootable CD or USB stick with the Labtix installation environment and Laboo Images for Cloning, you can skip this chapter.
Using the Labtix tool as a live CD/DVD or USB stick (recommended), Labdoo systems prepared by our helpers and equipped with learning content can be easily and quickly transferred ("cloned") to new computers , using so-called Images. As of Labtix 2.09 there are 4 BASIC images in 4 languages (English, Spanish, German, French). Depending on the language in the target country of the IT donation, you can select the language and upload additional learning content in other languages using control files. Local teams maintain additional images, e.g. in Catalan.
You need 2 things:
Labtix on a bootable medium: this can be a DVD (from Labtix 2.xx, from 2022) or a CD (Labtix 1.xx, 2017-2021) or a USB stick (recommended, 2 GB or larger) with which you can boot a computer into the Labtix environment.
External USB hard drive: for storing the Cloning Images and other learning content from our FTP server (Labdoo Hubs in Germany can be obtained from Labdoo.org e.V. Retrieve donated, pre-recorded boot media and USB hard drives.)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Labtix: The Labdoo installation environment
In order to be able to install older and newer computers yourself with a license-free tool, Labdoo.org has put together a small solution based on the Linux version Antix, which we called Labtix (composed of Labdoo and Antix).
In Labtix you will find everything you need - for deleting old data on a donated computer, for quick and automated installation of finished systems. In addition, you will find many tools on Labtix to diagnose hardware and analyze and solve problems (CPU/processor, thermal problems (°C), detect damaged drives, battery status, etc.)
You could download the iso files for Labtix from the folder of our FTP server. You could check the correct download using checksums (MD5 or sha512).
Once you have downloaded the file, you can create a boot medium from the iso file (CD or USB stick). This is the boot medium with which you can start and prepare donated computers.
Create a boot medium (CD or USB stick) from the Labtix ISO
Next, convert the ISO file into a boot CD or USB boot stick (simple copying is not enough!). This can often be done with the file manager of the operating system you trust or with additional tools. Below you will find some suggestions. For more, consult the web (search for "create CD / USB stick iso" and your operating system).
Requirements for Labtix 2:
WINDOWS:
LINUX:
dd if=/Path/to/Labtix.iso of=/dev/target partition bs=1M
MAC OS:
The balenaEtcher tool at https://www.balena.io/etcher/ creates the boot medium in a simple way after installation: select the image file, specify the target drive and the medium is flashed.

Labdoo Clone Images and additional learning content
You must download the images beforehand for cloning. Images are copies of a complete, pre-installed system. Linux has a great feature that other operating systems do not have. You can transfer a system from computer A to computer B - and it will run!
You can find these images online on our Labdoo FTP server http://ftp.labdoo.org/download/install-disk/.
You can download individual files via the browser by clicking on them with the right mouse button and then selecting "save link as".
However, this does not work for folders or for many files! These have to be downloaded individually and this is of course not convenient.
Simple methods for downloading multiple files for all common operating systems can be found at https://platform.labdoo.org/content/connecting-labdoo-ftp-server
Images sind groß und der Download dauert lange. Wenn ihr euch mit FTP-Clients auskennt, empfehlen wir daher sie direkt per FTP herunterzuladen (sftp, user labdoo und Passwort labdoo).
Labdoo BASIC Images for Cloning
Images and learning content have been decoupled since summer 2023. Previously, there were turnkey images, e.g. EN_40, EN_80, EN_160, EN_250 etc. Learning content was already pre-installed in these images, but this bloated the images, led to redundancy and long download times.
You can quickly download BASIC images with approx. 16 GB and then complete them with the desired content either during cloning with Labtix 2 or after rebooting. This is much faster, more flexible and saves time and resources.
In order to decide which image and which content is/are best for you, you would have to take the respective framework conditions into account:
The name of a BASIC image on the FTP server says:
There are standard directories for each available BASIC image and user language.
...and more to come.
Additional learning content
Additional learning content can be combined with the BASIC images. The content must be available locally on a local storage medium or on a local server. Downloading from the FTP server during installation is deliberately not supported (overloading the FTP server and taking a long time).
).
Preparation of the external USB hard drive (1+ TB)
The downloaded images are already unpacked and ready for immediate use. Copies them to an external hard drive or a local server. The USB disk must be formatted to store large files. For example, FAT32 is not possible because FAT32 can only handle files smaller than 4GB. NTFS is the recommended file system for an external hard drive.
New functions are available from Labtix 2. In recent years, Labtix has become the most used installation tool worldwide within the Labdoo project.
In keeping with this, Labdoo (Germany) has been providing "pre-assembled, ready-made" images for cloning on the FTP server in various languages and contents for years. And here success has created a bottleneck. Thousands of helpers are now downloading the freely available, free images from the FTP server. The infrastructure and bandwidth, kindly provided free of charge by the Polytechnica Barcelona data center, are being shared by more and more users and this leads to slow downloads.
We have therefore expanded our concept. 2.09 can now handle both "finished" images as before, but also the new BASIC images without content.
These "finished" images will soon be removed from the FTP server. You will then find BASIC images prepared in 4 languages.
The big advantage:
There are now only 4 small BASIC images each approx. 16 GB (DE, EN, ES, FR), which drastically reduces the upload and download volume. So far all images were around 500 GB...
How does it work?
There are now control files that tell Labtix what content to install where. This affects the Kiwix and browser-based archives, which were previously part of the "finished" images.
This means that content is not saved multiple times in images, but only once in the folder http://ftp.labdoo.org/download/install-disk/wiki-archive/ (you also need the subfolders here locally from the FTP server or ask for them via USB disk from your national hub representative).
This additional feature has other advantages. For example, you can create your own control files and quickly exchange them with each other, e.g. a file for reinstalling special content. Using a control file, it is also possible to install additional learning content in additional languages, e.g. the FR content for the EN_250 package.
The name of the control file specifies: 1. Language at the front refers to the BASIC image, i.e. for EN_250.txt = selects the image EN_BASIC, 250 refers to the recommended disk size of 250 GB. So everything as before. EN_FR_320.txt does the same thing, but also adds the French content, then needs 320 GB. By the way, FR_EN_250 matches the FR_BASIC image and installs EN content to it. In one case the system language when starting up is French, in the other case it is English.
What's the catch?
You need at least Labtix 2.09 (or higher) http://ftp.labdoo.org/download/install-disk/Labtix/ and the learning content http://ftp.labdoo.org/download/install-disk/wiki-archive/ .
An installation may take slightly longer. But you save a lot of time when downloading the images. If you have to install a lot of devices, you can save a local image you created yourself. Everything you need is included in Labtix.
Where can we find what?
Control files http://ftp.labdoo.org/download/install-disk/wiki-archive/control_files/
Content http://ftp.labdoo.org/download/install-disk/wiki-archive/
Current Labtix version http://ftp.labdoo.org/download/install-disk/Labtix/
Technical information:
Control files must be located locally on a data storage medium or server near the content folders with Kiwx, among others in the /content_files/ folder.
Only local content on USB drives or local servers is supported. Remote servers over the Internet are deliberately not usable.
The control files need a certain syntax. Please refer to the examples (blank lines between comments and content; #### before headings, ####2nd_lang, etc.).
If you want to use your own content, its archive name must match the name in the control file.
For content with a date in the name (e.g. for Kiwix) a wildcard (*) is possible. So you could always install Wikipedia with the control file, regardless of the version.
Content can be installed once during installation. Or later via installscript-content.sh in the scripts folder on the desktop.
We would be happy to hear your suggestions.
The Labdoo FTP server allows users to download files freely. Here are some simple methods on how you can connect to the FTP server. Choose the one that suits you best.
For security reasons, Labdoo does not allow unsecured FTP protocol, only secured SFTP protocol (no ftp, only sftp). And since fall 2023, rsync
has no longer been offered for security reasons..
Note: Labdoo is not responsible for third-party software.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Accessing the server through your browser
Open the URL http://ftp.labdoo.org/download/ in a browser and navigate via the links (Make sure the URL begins with “http://” and not “ftp://). Here you can download all files for free.
To download a file, click on a link with the right button of your mouse, then click "Save target as" (name can be different depending on your browser and opperating system).
This method's advantage is that you can access without a password, but on the other hand files can only be downloaded individually.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. Access data to connect to the FTP server
It is more convenient to connect your PC or server directly to the FTP server. Depending on your operating system there are several tools below. We created a user on the FTP server: labdoo with the password labdoo and read permissions (no write permissions), which is available to you for this purpose. If you need write permissions, please contact contact@Labdoo.org (EN) or Labdoo-DACH@Labdoo.org (DE).
Protocol = sftp (sftp is safer than ftp, so only sftp is available)
Server = sftp.labdoo.org
Username = labdoo
Password = labdoo
Path = /
sftp://labdoo:labdoo@sftp.labdoo.org
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. Integrate into the file manager (Windows, Swish)
Windows does not offer its own way to connect the file manager to an FTP server via the sftp protocol. ftp would be possible, but we do not offer this for security reasons. However, you can use additional programs sftp, e.g. the Swish Add-on for the Windows file manager http://www.swish-sftp.org/(link is external) .
After installing Swish, you have to set up the access to the FTP-Server:
Login to the FTP server: Name - choose a name of your choice; server: sftp.labdoo.org; user: labdoo; path: / | |
Security key: Save and connect - key remains permanently on the PC until changed; Simply connect - key is only saved for this session and will be queried again next time | |
Enter the password labdoo, now you can use the FTP server like a drive on your PC. |
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It is easy to connect your computer to the FTP server with special tools if you need to download massive files. The free FTP client Filezilla can be downloaded here https://filezilla-project.org/.. Also available for Apple (macOS) https://filezilla-project.org/download.php?platform=osx.
The start path can be set in the settings under Advanced --> Default directory on the server. Then you don't always have to click through the whole file system.
Enter the access data: Server - sftp://sftp.labdoo.org ; Username labdoo ; Password - labdoo ; Port - 22 |
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5. Linux
If you are using GNU/Linux, you can easily integrate the FTP server using the sftp protocol (secure FTP). Simply enter the path for the FTP folder → sftp://labdoo:labdoo@ftp.labdoo.org:/ in your favorite file manager.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
lftp is a free FTP client for Linux and other OS.
Install lftp under Linux using sudo apt install lftp
.
Then you can mirror the /install-disk folder using the appropriate one-liner with lftp:
lftp -c "open http://ftp.labdoo.org/download/install-disk/ ;mirror --parallel=10 -n -e -O /path/to/install-disk"
The "-e" option ensures that files that no longer exist on the server are deleted from the local install disk. If this is not desired, simply leave out this option.
The entire command can be entered into the crontab using "sudo nano /etc/crontab" if regular mirroring is desired.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
7.Connecting Apple (macOS and iOS) using Filezilla or iTransfer to an FTP server
For Apple and (macOS ans iOS) you can install and use the free tools Filezilla or iTransfer.

8.install-disk-maker.sh (Tool recommended by Labdoo)
You can download the tool for conveniently creating an installation disk (install disk) or a folder on a computer, server or NAS for Linux here. A download can be "clicked together" and saved as a download list for later repetitions. The download can only be limited to changed files, which saves download time.
http://ftp.labdoo.org/download/install-disk/Labtix/install-disk-maker.sh
(if necessary make it executable)
But it is also part of every BASIC image of Labdoo (on the desktop of the user labdoo in the scripts folder). This is how you can do it after installing it on Labdoo laptops
Note for technical helpers: The tool is based on wget
. Downloaded files that no longer exist on the FTP server are not automatically deleted by install-disk-maker. Every now and then it's worth clearing up "file corpses".

Install Disk Maker [in preparation]
Labdoo's install disk is used to distribute Labdoo images and educational content in order to install Labdoo systems. Despite the name Install Disk, images and educational content do not necessarily have to be on a hard drive. Local folders or shares on the local network can also be used. The installation is usually carried out using the installation scripts in the zzFM file manager in Labtix. After installation, additional educational content can be installed from Labdoo using the installscript_content.sh script in the “Scripts” folder on the Labdoo desktop.
In order for the Labdoo installers to work correctly, the following folder structure must be ensured:
For Images:
/install-disk/DE_German_images/22.04_LTS_EN_Basic
/install-disk/EN_Englisch_images/22.04_LTS_DE_Basic etc.
For Kiwix-Dateien:
/install-disk/wiki-archive/kiwix/wikis/DE/Lerninhalt.zim
/install-disk/wiki-archive/kiwix/wikis/EN/Learning_content etc.
For Offline-Wikis:
/install-disk/wiki-archive/wikis/DE/beispiel.tar.gz
/install-disk/wiki-archive/wikis/EN/example.tar.gz etc.
For control files ( content_lists ) :
/install-disk/wiki-archive/content_list/DE_120.txt
/install-disk/wiki-archive/content_list/EN_FR_80.txt etc.
The Content_Lists play a special role (see below). They serve as control files and contain the information about which additional content (wikis and Kiwix files) will be installed during the installation with the installer scripts in Labtix or after the installation with installscript_content.sh in Labdoo. Many Content_Lists already exist on the server. The name contains the minimum size of the hard drives on the devices to be installed. With every download, the contents of the content_lists folder are updated!
It is still possible to use Clonezilla in Labtix to create your own Labdoo images with a lot of content and save them anywhere and clone them using the Labdoo installer in zzFM or with Clonezilla in Labtix.
The Install Disk Maker tool is used to easily create an install disk or a corresponding folder using selection menus. Images and content can be saved specifically in a correct folder structure.
The advantage is that the entire install disk no longer has to be downloaded from the Labdoo servers, thereby significantly reducing download times and server utilization. In addition, individual compilations can be created more easily, e.g. if Labdoo installations with bilingual content are required. Simply download the relevant content to the install disk, create a corresponding Content_List (see below) and you have created the possibility for an individual Labdoo installation.
The install disk maker downloads the desired files from the Labdoo server (http://ftp.labdoo.org/download/install-disk/). A password is not necessary for this.
Of course the computer must be connected to the Internet!!!
The possibilities of the install disk maker:
In general, if folders/files already exist in the target folder, only newer versions or versions with a different size will be downloaded. This also helps enormously to reduce download times and relieve the load on the FTP server.
The install-disk-maker
The Install Disk Maker is a shell script with Yad as the frontend for the dialogs. It should run on all Debian-based systems. The dependencies are yad, wget and sed. If not available, these should be installed later if necessary. Simply copy the script to your computer, make it executable, double-click it and run it in the terminal when asked. The script is already integrated into Labtix and Labdoo. It is only available with English user guidance.
Starting the script:
In Labtix: Double-click on the corresponding icon on the desktop (from Labtix 2.10)
In Labdoo: /Desktop/Scripts/install-disk-maker.sh , logged in as user labdoo
After a short README, a selection list appears in which the further procedure is determined.
There are four options to choose from:
1 format and use an unmounted hard disk as target | |
2 choose or create and use a folder as target | |
3 update an existing install-disk(-folder) | |
4 update an install-disk(-folder) with an existing Downloadlist |
Depending on your selection, you will be guided to your destination via self-explanatory dialogues. Only option 1 requires you to enter the sudo password in the terminal once under Labdoo.
Selection of the drive for the install disk. Often sda is your own system disk and sdb is the external drive; like in the screenshot. However, this can change depending on the configuration. | |
Entering the administrator password (sudo) | |
Should a download list from a previous download be used. Or should a new list be “clicked together” individually for download. | |
Mark the images to download by language | |
Selection of images to load in the language folder | |
Selection of wiki languages for browser-based content | |
Selection of wiki languages for Kiwix | |
Display of the selected content for confirmation | |
Display of the download and progress in the terminal | |
Display of the download and the download list |
After closing the final “READY” dialog, the existing files and folders in the target folder or disk are displayed in the terminal. This is used to check the contents of the target folder or disk.
Pressing “Enter” in the terminal ends the script and the working folder is cleaned up.
While the script is running, it is possible to mount or unmount disks or shares using a file manager. It is not necessary to end the script.
If an external disk has been formatted, it must be removed from the device once after the script has ended and then reconnected in order to make it available to the system.
While the script is running, some auxiliary files are created in the working folder (or on the desktop in Labtix) which are deleted during the run. Some dialog windows allow you to abort the script and then delete these files. If the script hangs, for example because the connection to the server is interrupted, you can end it by closing the terminal in which the script is running. Some auxiliary files may be retained. To delete these, call the script again and end the "README" dialog with "Cancel". The work folder is cleaned up.
In rare cases, auxiliary files of the stream editor used sed with the name sed* appear in the working folder. These files cannot be edited, but disappear as soon as you close and reopen the file manager or restart the desktop in Labtix.
If you want to repeat the project, we recommend copying the resulting download list to a suitable location so that it is available at any time and/or can be passed on.
Building a control file (content_list)
The control files are pure text files that can be edited with any editor. Text processing is unsuitable for this!!!
Example EN_BS_80.txt (shortened):
=======================================================================
# Control file for automated post-installation of content, requires Labtix 2.09 or higher
# Control file for automated post-installation of content, requires Labtix 2.09 or higher

======================================================================
It is important to adhere to the syntax of the tags (e.g. ####kiwix_2) so that the install scripts can evaluate the control file correctly. If you want to create your own control files, you will find many existing examples in the /install-disk/wiki-archive/content_list folder. These can be adapted to your own projects.
Labtix 2
Sometimes the screen is very dark after booting and the screen cannot be brightened or darkened using the function keys. Then move the mouse to the upper left corner, if necessary "flying blind", click there and then tap on the arrow key to the right. Each time you press the arrow key, the monitor should get a little brighter.

Labtix comes with a number of useful tools preinstalled:
(partly smaller deviations between the Labtix versions possible)
Application | Description |
---|---|
Arandr | A tool for configuring the screen layout. Very useful when your device has the internal monitor removed and an external display is connected. |
Audacious | CD/DVD drive functionality test |
Avahi network scanner | scans the network (please connect first) and shows e.g. the path to a server or similar. |
Backlight Brightness | Sometimes the screen is too dark and cannot be made brighter with the keyboard (function keys). Then you can change the brightness with Backlight Brightness. Works most of the time, but not always. |
battery-plugin | in the panel gives you information about the status of the battery when you mouse over it. The plug-in can be activated with a right mouse click and "Battery Monitor Settings", if not already done. |
Conky | A tool for displaying system information on the desktop. The output window is in the upper right corner. The configuration file is in Labtix 1: /etc/conky/conky.conf , in Labtix 2: ~/conky.rc . In Labtix 2 with even more information, such as battery status, etc. |
Firefox esr | is the "enterprise version" of Firefox, which is not updated as often. For example, Firefox can be used during installation to research the web. It can also display pdf files. By default it doesn't collect cookies and doesn't store data to avoid bloating Labtix with unnecessary data in persistence mode. |
Gparted | a great tool for disk partitioning, file system repair and partition copying. |
Gsmartcontrol / DiskCheck |
a tool to read the S.M.A.R.T data from a hard drive to see if the hard drive is healthy. If yours is "red" in the registers, you should use a different hard drive. Tip: If a Seagate disk shows thousands of reallocation reallocation events in the Attributes tab, the drive is not damaged. These hard drives have different firmware specifically for Lenovo computers that uses the memory bit for reallocation events for other purposes. |
hard info | gives you extensive information about the hardware and software of the computer. |
ISO Snapshot | a tool to create an ISO snapshot of the system. All changes to the system are saved in the snapshot. While running ISO snapshot, mark the directories NOT to be added to the snapshot, except for the "Desktop" directory which contains the .desktop files. You should move existing snapshots to a directory that you do not want to include in the snapshot. The snapshot is saved in /home/snapshot. If the snapshot is created on a non-persistent system (e.g. boots from CD-ROM), it should be saved on another device. If there is not enough disk space to save the snapshot, the save path can be e.g. to another USB stick. The snapshot can be installed to a USB stick using UNetbootin or burned to a CD-ROM or DVD-ROM using the IG Burn Tool plugin in SpaceFM. |
Keyboard layout handler | With the Keyboard Layout Handler on the right side of the panel you can change the keyboard layout with a left mouse click. To make a permanent change, right click and use the "Keyboard Layout Handler Settings". The top keyboard layout in the list is preassigned at startup. With a left mouse click you can go through the pre-installed keyboard layouts (German, US English, French, Spanish). |
Live USB Maker (Labtix 2) | to copy Labtix to other USB sticks. |
Magnify | Magnifier on/off |
Onboard | show/hide monitor keyboard. |
SimpleScreenRecorder (Labtix 2 only) |
Tool to record videos of the session, e.g. for training purposes. |
Psensor | A tool to control the temperatures of CPU, GPU and others. |
SpaceFM (Labtix 1) / zzzFM (Labtix 2) |
is a file manager for the usual file actions and for integrating external devices. It has plugins to e.g. mount shares and burn CDs or DVDs. SpaceFM/zzzFM is highly configurable and can be modified with additional plugins. The trash can is disabled to prevent accumulation of too much data in persistence mode. If required, the trash can can be added as a plugin. It should not be removed as it is part of the desktop environment! |
Speaker Test | Speaker test right / left. |
UNetbootin (Labtix 1) | a tool to create bootable USB sticks. Start Unetbootin, enable "Diskimage", select the ISO snapshot (should be in /home/snapshot) and select the target USB drive. The USB stick should be formatted with fat32 and it should be mounted (use SpaceFM for this). After installation on a thumbdrive, Gparted should be used to check if the boot flag is set correctly! |
wipefs | Fast deletion of the file system (but does not replace overwriting with random numbers). |
Xfburn | to burn Labtix from CDs/DVDs. |
For more information, please use the man pages of the help function in the terminal (e.g. "man gparted" or
type "psensor --help" there and press (enter)) or use the Internet.
Desktop Settings:
The Labtix desktop environment is based on openbox with the additional lxpanel. If you right-click on the desktop, you can select "Desktop Settings" to make changes to the desktop. To install new program launchers on the desktop, copy them from /usr/share/applications to the desktop. To move icons on the desktop, use "Shift + Drag". Please note that in some cases SpaceFM moves the items out of the folder. If so, please copy it back.
We may need some tools for troubleshooting that make it easier for us to fix errors when installing or starting computers:
You don't have to create all of these tools directly. It is enough to create them when needed. But the more problem cases you have worked on, the more complete this tool collection becomes.
The easiest way can often be to install a hard drive with a finished Labdoo installation in a "problem" computer. This saves time and nerves!!!
Computer remains "dead":
When plugging in the power supply, the DC indicator light does not light up or the computer beeps:
UEFI not accessible:
Labtix does not boot into the Grub boot menu:
Labtix hangs when booting:
Installation aborts:
MacBooks:
Note: Labdoo Germany accepts MacBooks as IT donations. Labdoo Switzerland does not.
Labdoo does not boot:
Get more messages:
In its default setting, Labdoo does not display the kernel boot messages during booting, but rather the Mate boot logo ("plymouth"). However, if booting or shutting down hangs or takes a long time, you can use the boot messages to diagnose possible sources of error.
To display the boot messages while Plymouth is displayed: press "ESC" + "F1"
If you want to show all messages:
linux /boot/vmlinuz....
and replace quiet splash
with noplymouth
. The American keyboard layout applies!The most recent boot messages can be used to search for errors on the Internet. When searching, always specify the device used.
The changed settings only apply once, so they have to be changed every time you boot.
When the computer boots into Labdoo, the "dmesg" command in the terminal displays the boot messages. Problems are usually displayed in red.
Secure boot activated and cannot be deactivated
Important note: Labtix does not boot with Secureboot!!! However, the Grub boot menu appears and the message “secureboot” appears at the bottom left. However, it is often possible to access the UEFI in order to deactivate Secureboot via the Boot Rescue Menus >> Reboot into BIOS/UEFI Setup entries.
On some computers, Secureboot can only be deactivated if an administrator password has previously been set in the UEFI.
There is a small trap with some Acer computers: if you deactivate Secureboot and set the boot mode to "UEFI", Secureboot is automatically activated again!
If the computer's UEFI is protected with an unknown password and Secureboot is activated, it is still worth trying to install. As a rule, all *buntus like Ubuntu Mate, the basis of the Labdoo images, can be installed easily with Secureboot.
Since Labdoo images are installed through cloning, the installation step in which the Ubuntu secureboot certificate is entered into the computer's firmware is no longer necessary. This means that, depending on the computer firmware or the secure boot settings, the computer is prevented from booting Labdoo. Nevertheless, it is worth a try to have the certificates subsequently entered into the firmware. Unfortunately, this doesn't always work.
Installation of Labdoo:
Once Labdoo has been made to boot (unfortunately this is not always possible), an update must be carried out:
sudo apt update
>>> check for updates,sudo apt upgrade
>>> run the updates.sudo apt autoremove
>>> in the terminal to remove unnecessary files.For very inflexible devices:
Unfortunately, this type of installation is not trivial, which is why the procedure can only be outlined superficially. If you really want to give it a go, you'll have to search online from time to time to get further:
...and if nothing works, send the IT donation to the central post office... ;) (Labdoo Germany only)
Labtix has two boot menus. Once the menu for legacy boot and the menu for UEFI boot. Whether you boot into the legacy or UEFI boot menu depends on the settings in the UEFI. On many devices, both options can be selected via the computer's boot menu.
Legacy boot menu from Labtix:
Set the desired options using the corresponding function keys (e.g. F2 for language or F4 for kernel boot options) and, if desired, set them up permanently with F8. A reset is possible at any time with F8 > Reset. Alternatively, you can also enter it directly in the “Boot Options” line. After the next reboot, the boot menu contains the menu entry "Custom..."
Labtix UEFI boot menu:
The UEFI boot menu contains the “Advanced Options” entry through which options can be set up and saved using submenus.
Persistence mode
In persistence mode, all your changes are saved, such as . Network connections, Firefox bookmarks, changes within the Labtix environment, etc. . Installing programs and saving files is also possible.
If you wanted to use changes via persistence, you should not boot toram and remove the stick, because then Labtix cannot save your changes when you shut down.
Using the ISO Snapshot and Live USB Maker tools in Labtix, a new bootable stick can be created that includes all changes. The Unetbootin we previously recommended for creating live USB sticks uses the fat32 file system, which limits the maximum persistence size to 4 GB. The Live USB Maker uses ext4 as the file system and therefore allows for greater persistence. If the Live USB stick was created with the dd program or the "dd" option of the Live USB Maker, it is not possible to permanently set up boot options and set up persistence. The corresponding options do not appear in the boot menus.l
Helpful terminal commands
Even if, contrary to popular opinion, the use of a terminal in Linux is not absolutely necessary, it does offer some advantages. Terminal commands give you output faster than pushing the mouse. Terminal commands can be controlled and linked in a variety of ways using arguments and are therefore the method of choice for more complex problem solving.
To open a terminal, click on the icon at the bottom left of the bottom menu bar or press Ctrl + Alt + t on the keyboard.
If a command is refused with the note "permission denied" or root rights are required, type "sudo" before the command used, e.g. "sudo zzzfm"
For further information use the --help option e.g. "apt --help" or the man pages "man apt"
Application | Description |
---|---|
acpi (-V) | Information about the power system such as battery status, battery status, etc. |
(sudo) apt | Package manager

The Labtix 1 version of the Labtix installation tool is no longer being developed. For current images Labdoo recommends the current version Labtix 2 https://platform.labdoo.org/de/content/installation-mit-labtix.
Labtix 1 is still able to process older 32 bit images. However, these are no longer maintained.
Based on Antix 17 (2017), you get a complete set of refurbishment and installation tools. Labtix 1 runs on 32 bit and 64 bit CPUs. The drivers included in Labtix 1 work best on older hardware (ca. 2008 - 2018, difficult to delimit exactly, best you try it out).

Check the hardware with Labtix
To start, you should check a donated computer. After all, it makes no sense to send a laptop to hot countries that already overheats in cool regions. Or if the hard drive is already "crumbling", how is it supposed to survive transport and operation in hot regions? That's why Labtix comes with useful tools to check not only the hard drive, but also speakers, temperature sensors under load and much more. more to check, if necessary to clean fan, to renew thermal paste or foil.
BIOS settings
Some laptops require changing BIOS settings:
BIOS settings | Comment |
---|---|
Secure Boot | Must always be off (disabled). Sometimes an administrator password must first be set in order to disable Secure Boot. The admin password can then be removed again. |
Trusted Platform Module (TPM) | TPM is a security chip that secures a computer. In connection with Linux, however, TMP should always be switched off (deactivated). With some laptops, an administrator password must first be set in order to be able to deactivate the TPM. The admin password can then be removed again. |
UEFI | Up to Ubuntu 20.04 LTS It is recommended to turn off UEFI and enable Legacy/CSM. However, there is also a concept for an UEFI-based installation for 20.04 LTS developed by Labdoo helpers. From Ubuntu 22.04 LTS a separate concept was developed for Ubuntu so that both UEFI and Legacy/CSM installations are possible. Note: Labtix starts on some computers and the installation of the image runs smoothly. But when you restart the laptop, you get notices like "Invalid Partition table!" or similar and the laptop won't boot. Then please set the UEFI mode or both (UEFI and Legacy) in the BIOS. In very stubborn cases, the tool uses SuperGrub2Disk https://www.supergrubdisk.org. |
Recommended hardware checks
Tool | Check |
---|---|
GSmart | Please check the status of the target disk (sda) with the tool GSmartControl. The more "red" notes or icons and the darker they are, the sooner the hard drive should be replaced. |
StressCpu / psensor | The maximum temperature should be around 55 to 65°C under normal load, depending on the CPU / GPU type and the ambient temperature. To load the CPU, the "Stress CPU" script starts on the desktop (triggers "stress --cpu -8" in a terminal). Observe the temperature display of the CPU sensors in psensor. Stress CPU starts after 10 seconds and runs at full CPU load for 60 seconds so as not to damage the CPU and cooling system.
The temperatures often rise to over 70°C under full load, less would be better. Many manufacturers indicate an acceptable maximum temperature (CPU under full load) of 75 degrees. If the temperatures rise to 80°C or higher under load, Stress CPU immediately stops to avoid damage to the processor and cooling system. Then the cooling system needs to be revised (e.g. cleaning the fan or replacing the cooler paste/cooling pads). An overheated cooling system can also be recognized by the fact that the copper-colored heat conductor has turned bluish.
For some devices with Intel i3/5/7 processors, it is helpful to switch off the "Intel Turbo Boost" (may have a different name for some devices!) in the BIOS/UEFI in order to get the temperature below 75°C under full load. |
Speaker Test | Alternately checks the left and right speakers. |
[This page explains a solution in case a donated computer can only boot with UEFI or the BIOS is locked (password unknown) and UEFI is set as the boot option. If your computer can boot in legacy mode, you can skip this page].
Back in 2013/2014, there was a technical and legal discussion about SecureBoot and UEFI. The manufacturers argued that only UEFI boot on their computer provides security and therefore must only be used. However, the EU and NGOs went to court and the judges decided that the computer manufacturers had to re-open the BIOS settings so that users could choose whether to use the UEFI boot, the legacy boot (the "old" boot) or both as boot options. Computers that were produced before the "UEFI only" decision and after the old flexibility decision have no problem installing with Labtix and prepared Labdoo images.
However, if the computer was manufactured in the "UEFI only" period in 2013/2014, this may cause problems when installing a Lubuntu-based installation. Our Labdoo images are set up for legacy boot, not for UEFI boot (although Lubuntu could). We have described a solution for these specific UEFI-only machines here.
Another use case is a locked BIOS. A computer has been donated, but a BIOS password has not been removed and is unknown. If the boot option in the BIOS is set to "UEFI / Secure Boot Only" and cannot be switched to "Legacy Boot" because of the password lock, you can run the installation process described below and then use the computer for Labdoo.
If our solution is too difficult for you, please contact Labdoo helpers or hubs in your country / region and ask them for support.
You can use the installation tool Labtix (recommended, supports UEFI-Boot) or Parted Magic. PXE is not possible because you have to select certain options during the installation process and PXE does not allow access to these settings.
The installation sequence is rough:
So here are the steps in details:
This description is very technical, but it works. If you know a simpler solution, please feel free to contact us.
A special thank you goes to helpers from hub Rhein-Ruhr (Germany) for noticing and solving this specific problem.
Helpful comnands (shell, terminal)
To open a terminal click on the terminal icon in the menu bar or press the keys Ctrl and Alt and t.
If access to a command is denied ("permission denied") or root rigts are needed, add "sudo" in front of the command to be used, e.g. "sudo zzzfm"

This is not a secure method of deleting any devices, it's the quick and dirty solution if you want to get rid of an installed system. For safe deletions use the command "shred"
======================================================================
xkill >> tool to kill windows that are not responsible
Usage:
Open a terminal, type "xkill" and press "Enter". The mousepointer will be shown as a skull. Leftclick with the skull inside the window you want to close. Xkill will only close windows. In some cases processes started by the killed window might still run in the background.
Do not click on the Desktop, it is a window too !!!
======================================================================
xrandr >> tool to manipulate the graphical-(x-)server
xrandr --output eDP-1 --scale 0.5x0.5 >> reduces the height and width resolution of output eDP-1 by the factor 0.5 . Very useful if the screen has a very high resolution.
To get the name of the actual output:
xrandr | grep primary

Step-by-step instructions on how to install macOS and Ubuntu on a Mac computer.
There are four parts:
Requirements
Downloading Files
Download the following files from labdoo@ftp.labdoo.org:/macOS-ubuntu
:
It is strongly recommended that you install and use a download manager software (e.g. FileZilla) to download the files since the iso file is huge, and the download manager can resume the download just in case you lost the connection. Save the files to a USB drive or external HD. Below is a screenshot using FileZilla:
Create Bootable USB
Do the following on a working Mac. Otherwise, complete “The Mac Side” section and come back here.
The USB drive now can be used to boot any Mac.
If MacOS is missing
You will need to have Wifi and internet access to reinstall macOS.
If MacOS is present
If you know the password of the admin user, congratulations!. Otherwise, follow these steps to reset the password:
“Labdooing” the Mac
Create Labdoo Accounts
You will use the existing admin account to create two new accounts: “student” and “labdoo” and then remove all non-labdoo accounts.
Delete Non-labdoo Accounts
Change the Computer Name:
We will change the computer name to the labdoo Tag ID:
Create a Partition for Ubuntu
We are now ready to install Ubuntu on the new partition. But there is one task left: to install a boot manager.
Install rEFInd Boot Manager
Disable SIP (System Integrity Protection)
SIP protects critical areas on the disk from being altered, and rEFInd needs to write to one of those areas. Thus, we need to disable SIP before installing rEFInd
If it says “enabled” like in the capture above, follow the steps below to disable it
Installing rEFInd
We are now ready to install Ubuntu.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
The installation of Ubuntu overwrites the EFI boot area that we created earlier in the “Installing rEFInd” section. But without the EFI boot area, the Ubuntu installation would fail for some reason that I haven’t figured out. Thus, we’ll have to install rEFInd again.
Enable SIP
The donated used laptops often come dirty in appearance. After making sure the laptop is not broken, the next step to take is to clean the laptop case. Here's how to properly clean a laptop.
What you need: some soft clothes, a small bottle of 91% isopropyl alcohol, a box of cotton swabs.
LCD Screen
LCD screens are pretty delicate, and you don't want to press hard on them, because that can burn out the pixels. Instead, grab a dry soft cloth and gently wipe the screen. If you need to, add a little bit of alcohol. In most cases, that should be all you need. Do not use anything paper-based, like paper towel, Kleenex, or toilet paper, since it can scratch up your screen.
Keyboard
Clean dirty keys with a swab of rubbing alcohol to remove oil, grime, and germs. Don't forget to turn the laptop's power off before you start cleaning.
A warning note
Isopropyl alcohol vapor is more dense than air and is highly flammable with a very wide combustible range. It should be kept away from heat and open flame.
Packaging the laptops ready for traveling
Once a laptop has been sanitized, we need to package it so it can travel to a destination school. The main goals of the packaging are two-fold: (1) the packaging should protect the laptop from any possible rough traveling conditions; (2) the packaging should make visible the Labdoo identifier of the laptop, for both its AC adapter and the laptop itself. A recommended approach is to use transparent, bubble plastic wrap and to tape the Labdoo identifier in big letters outside, for both the laptop and its AC adapter, as shown in the following pictures:
You are welcome to use other packaging approaches based on what's available to you, as long as the laptop is well protected and its Labdoo identifier is made visible externally.
The following section describes relevant learning experiences gained by Labdooers around the world who (like you) are helping to sanitize laptops and make them ready for needy schools. It will teach you tips and tricks that will be very handy when sanitizing your laptops. If you are not able to find a solution to your problem in this section, please ask your questions to the Labdoo QA team and another Labdooer there will provide an answer for you.
How to change the booting order of a laptop from the bios
BIOS (Basic Input Output Subsystem) is a programmable chip that controls how information is passed to various devices in the computer system. A typical method to access the BIOS settings screen is to press ESC, F1, F2, F8 or F10 right after you start your computer.
BIOS settings allow you to run a boot sequence from a hard drive, a CD-ROM drive, the network, or an external device. You may configure the order that your computer searches these physical devices for the boot sequence.
The first device in the order list has the first boot priority. To install the Labdoo software you will need to ensure the CD-ROM, the USB or the network (depending on which method you use to install the software) are given the highest booting priority.
Note: in the case of a USB installation, before you set boot priority for the USB device, plug the device into a USB port to ensure the BIOS will be able to detect it.
To specify the boot sequence:
Figure. Illustration of the BIOS boot menu where you can change the booting order. |
Troubleshooting potential issues with the bios.
In some rare cases the BIOS could be reset during the process of deleting the hard drive information from the system, or some times older laptops do not support internal and/or external USB keyboards during the booting process. It might happen that you are not able to use the arrow keys (up, down, right, left) to configure the BIOS. In such cases the USB control (and sometimes the internal keyboard) was deactivated. A possible solution is to connect an external PS/2 or USB keyboard, and continue to install or adjust the BIOS.
Please notice that the usage of restricted codecs might depend on local laws. It might be illegal in some countries to install and use certain codecs (commercial/proprietary third-party packages) and multimedia extensions. Check your local regulations first prior to proceeding with the installation of the following software.
As in all software for Ubuntu, there are two ways to do the installation: via the Ubuntu Sofware Center or via the command line.
The installation via the Ubuntu Software Center is as follows. Open the Ubuntu Software Center (or the Synaptic Package Manager) and search for "restricted codecs". Select the package found and click on install. During the installation you will need to accept an EULA license agreement. To have full support to watch DVDs you must also install libdvdcss2 and non-free-codecs from the Medibuntu Repository. Please notice that in Europe these repositories are not allowed to be used. Further information can be read here: http://www.videolan.org/developers/libdvdcss.html
The same installation can be done via the command line through the following steps. Open a terminal by pressing at the same time the keys ALT+CTRL+T. Then type the following commands:
sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras -y
(Enter)
sudo apt-get install non-free-codecs -y
(Enter)
sudo apt-get install curl -y
(Enter)
curl ftp://ftp.videolan.org/pub/debian/videolan-apt.asc |
(Enter)
sudo apt-key add -echo "deb ftp://ftp.videolan.org/pub/debian/stable ./" |
(Enter)
sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/libdvdcss.list
(Enter)
sudo apt-get update
(Enter)
Ubuntu20.04 has some problem with Guest Session. You can create a guest account with the following procedures
---
1. Select "Administration->Users and Groups ->Add" , to create a new "guest" user:
Name: guest
Username: guest
2. Select the "guest" user and go to the "Advance Setting"
1. Under "Advanced" tab, deselect "Disable account" box
2. Click on "Change" Password, and select "Don't ask for password on login" box
3. Edit "/etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf " file to disable the guest session created by Ubuntu20.04 and add logout procedure for new guest account
allow-guest=false
session-cleanup-script=/home/labdoo/Public/guest_logout.sh
4. Create a /home/labdoo/Public/guest_logout.sh file as followed
#!/bin/bash
if [ $USER = "guest" ]
then
rm -r /home/guest/*
cd /home/guest
mkdir Desktop Documents Downloads Music Pictures Public Templates Videos
chown guest *
chgrp guest *
rm -rf /home/guest/.mozilla/firefox
fi
You can find more extense and precise information on how to create accounts and manage their permissions from the following Linux Users Tutorial
Starting from April 2018 and with the 18.04 LTS (L)Ubuntu release, a Samba server comes pre-installed on image cloned laptops. This means that a Labdoo laptop can be used as a server to other computer clients allowing these clients to access all the educational content in the server. This is a powerful configuration as it allows many types of devices (laptops, tablets, mobile phones, etc.) to access the educational content in the server without the need to have access to the Internet or the need to replicate the educational software in many devices.
Due to the speed of the server or the network, there are limitations in the number of computer clients that can be supported by one computer server. If too many clients are connected, the performance of the data transfer will become slow. So if you have many computer clients, it may be necessary to have more than one computer server.
This page describes how you can convert a Labdoo laptop into your own computer server to provide access to other computer clients. With a few simple steps a server can be set-up, check out the next instructions on how to do that!
Install Samba server
sudo apt-get install samba
or via the Linux package manager, e.g. synaptic.
smbd
[Enter] in a terminal to start the Samba server manually. To avoid starting this program each time manually, you can add "smbd" as a command in menu → Preferences / Settings → Personal / Personal → StartUp Applicatons / Start Programs → with "Add" → Name: Samba / command: smbd / Comment: add start up of Samba Server.. This will start the Samba server every time you reboot the system.
sudo apt-get install caja-share
or by using the synaptic package manager (this extension is also part of the Labdoo Image since April 2018).
Set up the Shared Folders
sudo caja
[Enter] in a terminal and right click on the folder you want to share. Click in the context menu "Share". Please notice that if Caja is not started as root, the menu item "Sharing" will not appear.
Access to the server via tablet, mobile phone, laptop or PC clients
Depending on your client and operating system installed and in use (Android, iOS, Windows, Linux etc.) access to the server may be different. Below you will find some examples and tips. There are also useful programs such as file managers, browsers, pdf viewers or ebook readers on your device. Check if your file manager is able to connect to a server (not all apps are able to) or if additional extensions need to be installed.
Access to the Server Using a Client
Connecting to the Server Using Ghost Commander in Android
The example Ghost Commander is similar to other file managers.
To create a Bookmark Using Ghost Commander
Note: Some file managers first store documents and pages locally before opening and displaying them. This can end up filling up the memory in your device. Cleaning up the memory can help.
Display Educational Content and Documents
Make Xowa Accessible from other Devices
Xowa comes with an http-server to help share Xowa wikis within a local network. Navigate to the folder /home/labdoo/Public/xowa
and open a terminal (e.g. using the file manager Caja: File →open a terminal here). Run the Xowa-jar file in this folder as follows:
For 64 Bit installations: java -jar xowa_linux_64.jar --app_mode http_server
[Enter]
For 32 Bit installations: java -jar xowa_linux.jar --app_mode http_server
[Enter]
Don't close this terminal window, as otherwise the Xowa process will be stopped. So leave it open as long as Xowa is used by other client devices.
Some devices, operating systems and browsers can resolve the hostname into its IP address. The IP address is like the address number of a home, which controls the access to each device inside your LAN (Local Area Network).
If the IP address cannot be resolved automatically you can get it manually. From the server computer, first right mouse click on the network/WiFi symbol on the desktop → Connection Information → read IP address (often similar to 192.168.1.xxx). Notice: The IP address will change every time, when you reboot the server (if you run DHCP for dynamic IPs in your network). It might be helpful to assign a static IP address to your server.
Read Xowa Content on any Client
The following is based on the IP address 192.168.1.133 just to illustrate an example. Instead of this IP address, use your server's IP address. Open the browser of your choice on your device (tablet, mobile phone, PC) and type the address of the server:
SERVER_IP_ADDRESS:8080
In our example: 192.168.1.133:8080:8080

Introduction
If a Labdoo laptop is member of a LAN or WiFi network, it can provide data (educational content) to other devices of that network, e.g. to mobile phones or tablets. This can be done either by some network share – e.g. via samba (smb) or e.g. via a web server (e.g. Apache web server). In both cases, educational content on that laptop could be accessed by other mobile devices (mobile phones, tablets) via their web browser. This might be a reasonable use case if these mobile devices do not contain Labdoo educational content (e.g. due to having not enough disc space for this content)or no having internet connection.
In the case of a WiFi connection, we commonly assume that our laptop is connected to a WiFi router, to which all other mobile devices are connected.
But what do we do if no WiFi router is available? If a WiFi USB-adapter or a built-in Wifi is available on it, is possible to use a laptop as hotspot and host a WiFi network. There a 2 options - use a Samba (smb) file server, which offers a Windows-compatible server (easy to start and handle). Or you can use Apache server, which is bringing a full web server to a laptop (more complex), being able to spread content and web-sites locally and world-wide (if connected to internet).
Such a setup is outline in this document.
using Samba (smb) server
using Apache web server
Target Group
The target groups are Labdoo schools, which do not have a running WiFi network, but need a network to provide file, content and/or Internet access to other mobile devices.
Example: The Labdoo school have tablets or smartphones, but no Labdoo content on them.
Then the school is able to use a Labdoo laptop as server and spread the educational content to mobile devices. The number of mobile devices to be provided by one laptop depends on its capacity, mainly speed of CPU, disc and WiFi connector. In our tests we found 3 - 10 devices a reasonable number of clients to be connected to one laptop.
Each Labdoo laptop comes with a preinstalled Samba server (smb). How to start the smb-server and how to connect mobile devices to it is explained here.
You will find most content on each laptop in the folder /home/labdoo/Public/wikis. Navigate in a browser of your mobile device to the sub-folder (language) needed. Search for the start file, in most cases index.html, start-here.html or similar. Then you can read and use links etc. on your mobile device as reading on a laptop. Please note that Xowa content does not work using a web browser.
Technical Aspects
Most modern smartphones can be used to host a WiFi network. However, not all WiFi chips of laptops or USB-sticks (and their drivers) support this feature. According to the Ubuntu Users Wiki [1], these WiFi chips do the job:
• chips driven by the hostap driver or
• chips working with a current mac80211/nl80211 sub-system
A detailed description on how to set up the laptop as a WiFi hotspot is given in the Ubuntu Users Wiki [1]. The procedure works with (L)Ubuntu 14.04 - 18.04 LTS.
• provide files access (e.g. via Samba, offering Windows-compatible file services) and / or
• run a webserver to provide browser based access on educational content (e.g. via Apache)
• share its Internet connection (e.g. if the Laptop has WWAN)
to mobile devices connected to the WiFi.

Thank you, Daniel Neumann, Labdoo Hubs Hamburg / Rostock, for contributing this text (hamburg-hub@labdoo.org).
When installing Lubuntu-Installation the first user created is labdoo (who is also administrator and should be reserved for the teachers, as this user may destroy the system by mistake). If you install via cloning or if you use the installation scripts the additional user student will be created automatically.
The user student kas less rights, e.g. is not able to install or delete software and is not able to destroy the system.
Here is the manuel way, how to create a user student:
Start here → System Tools → User + Groups → unlock → +add user → system password (labdoo) → student as name, e.g. withpassword labdoo → Account Type = Standard (as suggested) → Create → click on password (account disabled) → input of password labdoo and acknowledge → Change → optional: cahnge language of user student.
Open a terminal and type (by executing this zhe user student will become member of the group labdoo):
sudo usermod -aG labdoo student (Enter)
Please note:
Each new user takes disc space. So please do not create more users.
As a standard user you are not able to destroy a system by mistake (or at least it is very hard). The user labdoo (administrator) should only be used by teachers.
Each user has his own folder and files in the directory /home/....(name of the user). But the folder home/labdoo/Public is a public folder. All users should have access here. To go there open the file explorer → filesystem → home → labdoo → folder /Public (you can add a bookmark to navigate here more easily).
If you add content of your own in /Public there is a script http://ftp.labdoo.org/download/install-disk/installskripts/set-rights-fo... to ensure all rights are set correctly.
In addition there is the user guest. guest needs no password to log-in. But guest is not able to change or store anything. When logging out all his input will be deleted automatically.
Smartphones can also take a crucial role in enabling a path to education for children around the world. In many situations, a smartphone can be the lifeline that connects children with their school teacher, specially in rural areas. Without this lifeline, children often loose all chances to continue their school programs. Smartphones can be as computationally powerful (and can even be as expensive) as computers. Further, many smartphones tend to have large screens, which makes them suitable for education.
The Labdoo Smartphone Program focuses on enabling the circular economy of smartphones in order to help disadvantaged students from around the world gain access to educational content.
Minimum phone requirements:
As a Labdoo hub, when accepting smartphone donations, please make sure the phone satisfies the following minimum requirements:
Sanitation Process:
When you receive an unused smartphone, please follow the next instructions to sanitize it and ensure all personal data is fully removed:
Step 1. Tag it.
Follow the usual instructions to tag a device: https://platform.labdoo.org/content/tagging-and-updating-state-dootronic.
As usual, tagging is a very important step to ensure the transparency and traceability of the devices globally. Please make sure the device is properly tagged through the Labdoo platform. This will also allow participants to receive automatic notifications of the state of the device as it makes its way to the destination school.
Step 2. Encrypt it.
Modern Android devices are always encrypted out-of-the-box. However, in the case of older Android models, the device may or may not be encrypted. If you are using an Android device running a version below 7.0, please follow the next steps to ensure the phone is encrypted.
For Android handsets and tablets running Android 5.0 Lollipop or newer, you can navigate straight to the “Security” menu under settings. Getting here might be slightly different depending on your phone, but with stock Android, this can be found under Settings > Personal > Security. Here you should see an option to “Encrypt phone” or “Encrypt tablet”.
You’ll be asked to plug your phone in to charge while the process takes place, just to make sure that your phone doesn’t shut off and cause errors. If you haven’t done so already, you will be prompted to set a lock screen PIN or password, which you will need to enter when you turn your phone on or unlock it in order to access your newly encrypted files. Be sure to remember this password!
Step 3. Factory reset it.
To factory reset your phone, go to your phone's settings and look for a section called "Backup and reset." If you don't see that, open the System section of the settings and then look for "Backup and reset," "Reset," or "Reset options" — or, on Samsung devices, open the General Management section and then look for the "Reset" option there. In some cases, you might have to tap a line labeled "Advanced" before any reset-related options will show up.
Find and select the command to perform a full factory data reset and select any subsequent options to erase all types of data and accounts. The system will likely give you a confirmation screen or two and then ask you to input your PIN, pattern, or password for protection. Complete all those tasks, then sit back and wait while Android does its work.
That's it! At this point the phone should have no sensitive information and it should be in the same state as when the phone was first bought out of the factory.
Note for the hubs:
When soliciting mobile phones to your local community, please make sure to ask donors that they perform a factory reset before accepting the phone. This will ensure that data has been erased and also that there is no password associated with the phone. You can forward the instructions in "Step 3. Factory reset it" to the donors prior to accepting the phones.
The Labdoo Toolkit provides a set of tools to allow labdooers carry out their mini-missions. These tools include items such as flyers to run your own local awareness campaigns, slides to present the concept of Labdoo to your community or Labdoo logos that you can use to compose your own outreaching material, among many other items.
If you are carrying out outreaching activities, you may want to use the Labdoo logos to create your own awareness material (flyers, announcements, etc.). You can download all the Labdoo logos from this page. Pick the one most appropriate to the message you want to convey.
Note: all the Labdoo content (inluding the following logos) can be freely downloaded as long as you make a fair usage of it. All content is released under the Creative Commons License (CC BY-SA 3.0): http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/
This wiki book includes a list of email templates that labdooers can use to help automate the process of replying to email requests. For instance, when a hub manager receives an edoovillage creation request from a destination school, the manager can automatically use the 'Response to Dootronics Solicitation' template. While each request will have its own specific requirements, using general templates to help automate responses to email requests help in two ways:
Here are frequently used templates categorized by tasks.
Outreach/ Laptop donations -
Template for responding to laptops donors
Template for responding to tax receipt request
Template for responding to data deletion
Laptop requests -
Template for answering requests for a personal use laptop
Initial email response for laptop request from edoovillage
Second email response once laptop requester identifies school location

Dear $SOLICITORNAME,
Thank you for contacting Project Labdoo.
Project Labdoo's mission is to bring laptops loaded with education software to well organized education centers. As such, we regretfully cannot donate laptops to individuals or to organizations outside the Project's mission scope and so, unfortunately, we cannot serve your request.
Alternatively, if you are enrolled in a school program, we could explore the possibility of bringing laptops to your school. If this is an option, you would be able to use the contributed laptops by borrowing them from the school in a time-shared basis together with the rest of your classmates. Notice that there is an involved process to create a project to receive laptops in a school, so this may not accommodate your immediate needs. Let us know if otherwise.
Thank you for reaching out.

La missió del projecte Labdoo és portar dootronics (portàtils, tablets, ...) carregats amb programari educatiu a centres educatius ben organitzats. Així doncs, no podem donar dootronics a persones o organitzacions que tinguin altres objectius diferents a l'educació i, per tant, desafortunadament, no podem gestionar la teva sol·licitud.
De totes formes, si estàs vinculat a una escola, es podria mirar de portar dootronics a aquella escola. D'aquesta forma, podries utilitzar els dootronics donats a l'escola i compartir-los amb la resta d'alumnes d'aquesta. Pensa, però, que això requereix temps i, pert tant, és possible que no resolgui les teves necessitats immediates.
Gràcies per contactar amb el projecte Labdoo.org.
Atentament,
$ELMEUNOM

1. Standardantwort
Lieber Antragsteller, liebe(r) $SOLICITORNAME,
Vielen Dank für Ihre Kontaktaufnahme und Anfrage. Um Ihren Bedarf besser zu verstehen und prüfen zu können, benötigen wir Ihre Angaben z.B. zum Projekt und ob es potentielle Flugpaten zum Transport der IT-Spenden gibt.
Weitere Informationen und den Antrag (request) für IT-Spenden für Ihr „Edoovillage“ (so heißen bei Labdoo.org Schulen, Heime, Jugendprojekte usw.) finden Sie im Wiki.

Antrag https://www.labdoo.org/de/content/start-laptop-request
(Den Antrag öffnen, im Browser → speichern unter → dann mit Editor oder Word öffnen, ausfüllen und einsenden, danke)
Bitte füllen Sie es soweit als möglich aus. Was Sie nicht wissen, lassen Sie frei. Bitte senden Sie es mit einigen Fotos vom Projekt zurück (für das Ausland bitte auch vom Umland, dem Ort, der Schule und den Kindern). Danach stellen wir es im Fall der Annahme auf unsere Homepage.
Im FAQ Forum http://www.labdoo.org/de/content/faq-forum finden Sie die häufigsten Fragen, auch zum Zoll usw. beantwortet.
Alle bisherigen Projekte stehen auf https://www.labdoo.org/de/content/edoovillages-dashboard. Sie können dort auch nach Ländern u.a. Kriterien filtern.
Wichtig ist auch, dass Antragsteller eine private oder staatliche Initiative / Projekt ist (Schule, Waisenhaus, Jugend-/Flüchtlingsprojekt). Die IT-Spenden können nicht an Einzelpersonen, sondern nur an Projekte gegeben werden, in deren Eigentum die IT-Spenden auch verbleiben. Die IT-Spenden sind gekennzeichnet und nummeriert. Daher ist jederzeit eine Kontrolle möglich, ob die erhaltenen IT-Spenden auch dort noch im Einsatz sind. Eine Weitergabe an Dritte ist nicht erlaubt.
Defekte IT-Spenden werden nur gegen Rückgabe der nicht mehr funktionierenden Geräte kostenlos ausgetauscht.
Eine Projektpräsentation finden Sie auf http://ftp.labdoo.org/download/documents/german/Unterlagen/labdoo-projec....
Für Projekte im Inland:
Projekte im Inland können eine PC-Spende beantragen oder selber aktiv werden, IT-Spenden sammeln und aufbereiten. Bei ca. 23 Mio. ausrangierten Computern in Privathaushalten plus den in Firmen ist der Pool riesig. Die Lernsoftware, Lerninhalte und Deutschkurse können leicht installiert und on- wie offline eingesetzt werden. Falls im Inland Laptops benötigt werden, brauchen wir eine kurze Begründung, warum keine PCs möglich sind.
Für Projekte im Ausland:
Auslandsprojekte erhalten i.d.R. Laptops. Wichtig für eine Entscheidung, ob ein Antrag angenommen wird, ist die Logistik, z.B. ob es Flugpaten gibt, die ab und zu das Projekt besuchen und IT-Spenden nach $SOLICITORCOUNTRYNAME mitnehmen können oder ob es Hilfsendungen gibt, bei denen IT-Spenden als Beipack mitgegeben werden können.
Bitte sagen Sie ca. 4 Wochen vor Abreise Bescheid, damit wir genügend Vorlauf haben, die IT-Spenden vorzubereiten und dem Flugpaten zuzusenden.
Wir können natürlich nur das weitergeben, was uns vorher gespendet wurde. Daher können wir auch nicht sagen, wann die IT-Spenden zusammengekommen sind. Sie können aber mithelfen, indem Sie z.B. ihr Netzwerk informieren selbst und zu IT-Spenden aufrufen oder die Presse informieren und einen Aufruf starten. Grafiken und Logos finden Sie auf http://www.labdoo.org/de/content/faq-forum#FAQ02.
Bei Fragen stehe ich gerne zur Verfügung.

2. 'Wir können leider nicht helfen' Antwort
Manchmal bittet der Antragsteller um IT-Spenden für Einzelpersonen oder Projekte, die keinen Bildungsbezug haben. Da diese nicht zu Labdoos Zielgruppe gehören, kann in diesen Fällen die u.a. Antwort verschickt werden.
---
Lieber Antragsteller, liebe(r) $SOLICITORNAME,
Vielen Dank für Ihre Kontaktaufnahme und Ihre Anfrage. Labdoo.org ist eine gemeinnützige Organisation, die IT-Spenden nur an private oder öffentliche Institutionen (Schulen, Waisenhäuser, Flüchtlings-/Bildungsprojekte u.a.) vermittelt. Eine Weitergabe von IT-Spenden an Einzelpersonen ist uns nicht möglich.
Daher können wir Ihrer Anfrage leider nicht entsprechen. Wenn Sie einen Antrag für ein Projekt gemäß unseren Statuten einreichen möchten, melden Sie sich gerne erneut. So kann z.B. eine Schule einen Antrag stellen und dann IT-Spenden für eine gewisse Zeit an SchülerInnen ausleihen. Gerne prüfen wir gemeinsam mit Ihnen Möglichkeiten zu helfen.
Ansonsten kann ich Ihnen nur den Hinweis geben, dass es viele Millionen nicht mehr genutzte Computer in Privathaushalten gibt. Nutzen Sie ihr Netzwerk und fragen Sie im privaten oder beruflichen Umfeld nach ausgemusterten Computern, die man Ihnen vielleicht spenden kann.

Dear $DONORNAME,
Thank you for helping to give children a better education with your laptops.
As you may know, Labdoo runs as a distributed / humanitarian social network platform. The donation process propagates from one volunteer to the next, until the laptop reaches its school destination. Our system provides a communication platform for volunteers across more than 100 nations and financial boundaries. Labdoo does not need monetary donations to sustain itself thanks to our collaborative approach. Our no-money approach also implies that there is no chance of financial corruption. With over $CURRENT_NUMBER_OF_LABDOO_LAPTOPS laptops delivered to $CURRENT_NUMBER_LABDOO_SCHOOLS different schools, this model demonstrates the efficacy of running an organization just through collaboration and without the need for funding.
Because of the above reason, Labdoo does not issue tax receipts. By registering your laptops in the Labdoo system, you can be assured that the working laptops are properly delivered via the platform-generated email notification that you receive from the recipient schools, which you can use as proof of your donation to that school. You will also receive email notifications on the status of broken laptops as they make their way to the recycling facility.
Thanks for your understanding and for your joint effort in making the Labdoo system transparent and efficient.
Best regards,
$MYNAME
Dear SOLICITORNAME,
I apologize for the inconvenience created by the laptops not arriving in time for your needs.
Despite our best efforts to deliver the laptops on time, our reliance on factors beyond our control (such as the service provided by the courier, flight schedules, etc.) meant that we were unable to meet your expectations for delivery in the time period allotted.
We are sorry that your plans have been disrupted and we will work with you to determine next steps so that we can resolve the issue together. Furthermore, we will assess the situation to deduce measures we can adopt to help minimize issues of this nature in the future.
Thank you for your understanding.
Sincerely,

Dear SOLICITORNAME,

To serve the schools we partner with, we rely on the generosity of this global team of volunteers who donate their time and energy to make our world a better place.
Due to the limitations of our resources and capabilities, we unfortunately are unable to meet your request for (STATE THE REQUEST). Given the situation, the best we can do is to (PROVIDE AN OPTION SUCH AS REFERRING THEM TO ANOTHER ORGANIZATION).

If you need to provide a brief description of Labdoo to someone else (for instance, to a potential volunteer(s) interested in creating a Labdoo hub), you can use the following template.
Note: if you would like to help translate the following description of Labdoo to another language, please reach us out at contact@labdoo.org and we will help you incorporate your translation.

When solicitors send us a request for laptops for a school in a country COUNTRY_DESTINATION, the first response is to ask back if they know of travelers from any country COUNTRY_SOURCE where Labdoo has hubs (see the Labdoo response to laptop solicitors: https://www.labdoo.org/content/response-dootronics-solicitation). If the solicitors find travelers from a country COUNTRY_SOURCE which has Labdoo hubs, then the next step is to ask them to forward their own request to the Labdoo hubs in country COUNTRY_SOURCE. Here is Labdoo's standard response to help forward solicitors' request to the right country:
Hi $NAMEOFSOLICITOR,
That's good news. Since you found traveler(s) from a region where we have Labdoo hubs, please do the following:
(1) Go to https://www.labdoo.org/ and click on "Request Laptops" button. This will take you to this page:
https://platform.labdoo.org/content/contact-labdoo?re=3
(2) Fill in your information, you can copy and paste the original message you sent me. Please tell them also that you have a traveler that can help bring the laptops. Most important, please make sure you select $COUNTRY in the Country field. This will ensure your request will be routed to Labdoo hubs from this country.
Upon doing this, someone from Labdoo $COUNTRY will be reaching back to you.
Wishing you best of luck in finding travelers and Labdoo hubs that can help bring educational laptops to your shool.
Warm regards,

From time to time, it is a good habit to send out an email to hubs in your area reminding them about the Labdoo tools that are available to help organize their laptop campaigns and sanitation events. For instance, for school hubs this message can be send out around early September as their yearly coursework starts. For other hubs (company, NGO, or home hubs) this message can be sent out anytime.
In this page you will find templates for such type of message in various languages that you can re-use for your convenience.
The world buys every year more than 400 million laptops and electronic tablets, yet 5000 million people still don't have access to powerful online and free sources of education.

Amb el retorn a les activitats escolars i laborals, us volem fer arribar les eines que trobareu a la plataforma Labdoo.org per tal que pugueu continuar organitzant les vostres campanyes de mobilització de portàtils i tauletes en desús i fer arribar educació als llocs més necessitats.
Us volem primerament informar que gràcies al treball de molts voluntaris, inclosa la vostra tasca, així com també a la transparència del projecte i la seva component col.laborativa, les donacions de portàtils individuals i empreses a la plataforma humanitària estan en augment.

Igualment, us encoratgem a que continueu les vostres pròpies campanyes de sensibilització i recollida de portàtils i tauletes en desús a traves de les vostres xarxes d'amistats i familiars ja que aquestes activitats tenen efectes molt positius també.

Dragi beneficiari ai calculatoarelor Labdoo:
Suntem foarte bucuroși că am avem oportunitatea de a contribui la realizarea proiectului dvs, furnizându-vă tehnologia necesară reducerii decalajului digital și informatic în zona dvs. de interes.
Orice beneficiu implică însă și o responsabilitate. Tehnologia, atunci cand este folosită corespunzător, poate reprezenta un mijloc foarte eficient de a-i ajuta pe cei care au într-adevar nevoie. Dar folosită într-un mod greșit, îi poate afecta atât pe cei ce o folosesc, cât și mediul înconjurător. Prin acceptarea calculatoarelor mai sus mentionate, se consideră că acceptați respectarea următoarelor reguli generale Labdoo:
1. Articolele primite vor fi utilizate doar în scopul pe care instituția dvs. l-a precizat la momentul solicitării prezentei donații

1.2. Doar instituții educaționale acreditate (de exemplu școli) și proiecte specifice pot aplica pentru calculatoare Labdoo, nu și persoane fizice
1.3. Articolele donate pot fi înstrăinate din instituțiile școlare doar cu acordul Labdoo (de exemplu, profesorii nu dreptul de a scoate calculatoarele în afara școlii, fără a înștiința Labdoo în prealabil). Dacă un inspector Labdoo va vizita proiectul dvs. și va constata lipsa unor articole donate, școala și/sau proiectul dvs. vor fi excluse din programul Labdoo și nu vor mai putea primi nici un fel de donații din partea Labdoo

In this page you will find several examples of letters written by high school students. These sample letters are used to make the calls to collect unused laptops and tablets from parents, relatives and friends. The letters are sent to the parents via the school's mailing system. Upon receiving the letter, parents bring their unused laptops to the school. Then the students organize a workshop to sanitize the laptops and install the education software, making them ready for other needy schools. If you have other sample letters (in any language) and would like to share them, please add them to the bottom of this page.
Language: Catalan | Sample letter #1.

Dear $LAPTOPREQUESTER,
Thank you for contacting Labdoo.
Labdoo is a small organization with limited resources. Therefore, our laptop donations are currently prioritized for schools. By doing so, the maximum number of students can benefit from the limited resources. Should our resources grow in the future and we can expand our service, we would be happy for you to resubmit your application.
Sorry for not being able to provide you with the laptop resource, and I wish you all the best in your future.
Sincerely yours,

Reminding the edoovillage to pick up the laptops if their volunteers haven't picked them up after 2 weeks is good. Following is a template for the email.

Please inform your traveler to either visit the store or contact them for the delivery of the laptops as soon as possible. It is important to note that travelers who cannot pick up the laptops in person will be responsible for the shipment cost.

Dear friends,
As many of you already know, I collaborate with Labdoo, the NGO that brings clean unused computers and educational software to schools where they need them, using sustainable resources (and without the need for money) based on the work and collaboration of volunteers around the world. To solve the transportation problem, we repurpose the trips made by people like you, so we do not divert resources that should go to more important things and so that we can help to reduce CO2 emissions to the planet.
To bring computers to [FINAL DESTINATION] we have a traveler that often goes from [INTERMEDIATE POINT], so now we only need to carry laptops from [OUTPUT POINT] in [INTERMEDIATE POINT]. The first trip will do so soon, within a week or so.
If you are planning a trip to [INTERMEDIATE POINT], could you help us with one or two healthy laptops?
(Or if you know someone who is going to)
Here you will find information and pictures of the [FINAL DESTINATION] school, which suffered the terrible effects of the [Pam Cyclone in March 2015 and that is already enough to receive the computers]. (PERSONALIZE AS YOU CONSIDER TIMELY)

Aneu a [DESTINACIÓ FINAL]?
Hola amics,
Com potser sabeu col.laboro amb Labdoo per portar ordinadors en desús sanejats i amb software educatiu a escoles on els necessiten, tot amb recursos sostenibles existents, sense diners. El transport el fem aprofitant viatges de gent com ara vosaltres, així no desviem recursos que han d'anar a coses més importants com la salut.
Per portar ordinadors a [DESTINACIÓ FINAL] tenim un viatger que hi va sovint des de [PUNT INTERMEDI], així que ara sols ens cal portar portàtils de [PUNT DE SORTIDA] a [PUNT INTERMEDI].
El primer viatge el farà aviat, d'aquí una setmana aproximadament, però també hi va sovint.
Si aneu cap a [PUNT INTERMEDI] ens podreu portar un o dos portàtils sanejats i amb software educatiu?
(o si coneixeu algú que hi va)
Aquí trobareu info i fotos de l'escola de [DESTINACIÓ FINAL], que va patir els terribles efectes del [cycló Pam al març del 2015 i que ja està suficientment refeta per rebre els ordinadors]. (PERSONALITZEU COM CONSIDEREU OPORTÚ)

Queridos amigos,
Como muchos ya sabéis colaboro con Labdoo, la ONG que llevar ordenadores en desuso saneados y con software educativo a escuelas donde los necesitan, para esto se aprovechan recursos ociosos, es decir sin dinero, a base del trabajo y colaboración de voluntarios. El transporte por ejemplo lo hacemos aprovechando viajes de gente como vosotros, así no desviamos recursos que deben ir a cosas más importantes como la salud.
Para llevar ordenadores a [DESTINO FINAL] tenemos un viajero que va a menudo desde [PUNTO INTERMEDIO], así que ahora sólo necesitamos llevar portátiles de [PUNTO DE SALIDA] en [PUNTO INTERMEDIO]. El primer viaje lo hará pronto, dentro de una semana aproximadamente.
Si tienes previsto un viaje a [PUNTO INTERMEDIO] ¿podrías ayudarnos llevando uno o dos portátiles saneados?
(O si conoce a alguien que va a )
Aquí encontrarás información y fotos de la escuela de [DESTINO FINAL], que sufrió los terribles efectos del [Ciclón Pam en marzo de 2015 y que ya está suficientemente repuesta para recibir los ordenadores]. (PERSONALICE COMO CONSIDERA OPORTUNO)

Dear $NAME:
Thank you for contacting Labdoo and for all the work you've done to help spread education.
In order to evaluate if we can help your project, we need first to have some more information about your school: could you please tell us more about your project? What are your goals? What are you going to do with the laptops? How many teachers and pupils do you have? How do you plan to train your teachers? How will you maintain your laptops?
If you have a website, could you send it to us? Any pictures?
Please also send us the certificate of registration of your school or non-profit organization.
If you have any further questions please get back to us. Thank you and best wishes,
Dear $DONORNAME,
Thank you for your interest in contributing to the Labdoo.org cause.
At Labdoo, we want to ensure all data stored in every donated computer is properly erased. Erasing data on the computer hard drive is the required first step in the standard Labdoo laptop sanitation process. Volunteers shall erase data with the “shred” command before installing the new Ubuntu operating system.
Please visit the Labdoo website for detailed information on how to erase data from the computer hard drive ( https://platform.labdoo.org/content/delete-all-data-hard-disk )
Thank you for helping us spread the Labdoo awareness so more used laptops can have a second meaningful life before fully retired.
Sincerely,
$YOURNAME
If you are packaging dootronics into boxes, you can print the following 'fragile drawings' and stick them to each of the sides of your box.
Once you have sanitized a dootronic, you can optionally set its desktop image to the following image to give it a friendly look.
You can use this to make your own Labdoo Roll Up and help reach out your local community.
You can use this poster to help explain the Labdoo circle of life workflow.
In addition to the guidelines described in the Labdoo School Hub Booklet, it is often suggested by teachers that students performing Labdoo activities take the initiative of writing a report or a diary of their activities. This allows students to enhance their writing and communication skills while at the same time they share their social activities and their learning lessons with the rest of the classmates and the local community.
Here is a great example of a diary that one of the high school students from one of the Labdoo School Hubs wrote and that you can use as a reference example:
When bringing laptops and tablets to a school, make sure you also deliver one printed copy of the "Dootronics Welcome Package".
The following links will allow you to download each of the documents that are part of the welcome package. Please print each of these three documents, put them inside an envelope and deliver them at your destination school together with the laptops/tablets.
You can download these templates to create your own personalized Labdoo outreaching cards.
The following videos can be used for your own Labdoo campaigns. Let's say you need to explain a potential laptop donor how Labdoo works? you can use the 'Circle of Life' video. Need to illustrate Labdoo's grassroots growth? you can use the 'Growth Video'. As we develop more videos, they will also be added to this page.
