| Burgundavia | hmm, ms smartphone | 09:25 |
| jsgotangco | hey! it was a gift from my wife | 09:28 |
| Burgundavia | yes, non-techys frequently buy odd gifts like that | 09:45 |
| Burgundavia | they don't really know the difference | 09:45 |
| jsgotangco | this phone isnt to smart at all | 09:48 |
| Burgundavia | it is MS, what do you expect? | 09:48 |
| jsgotangco | well i used to have a Zaurus and it was crappy so i replaced it with a Pocket PC | 09:49 |
| Burgundavia | unfortunately, I bought a palm | 09:51 |
| Burgundavia | so their is no linux for it | 09:51 |
| jsgotangco | at least they sync nicely | 09:51 |
| jsgotangco | unlikethe Zaurus where it cant even sync to linux | 09:51 |
| jsgotangco | it took a while for KitchenSync to do that | 09:52 |

| mkde | where is froud these days? | 03:47 |
| Burgundavia | around | 03:56 |
| Burgundavia | did you get a response for the ubuntuguide.org guy? | 03:56 |
| mkde | no | 04:01 |
| mkde | apparently he posts on the forum occasionally | 04:02 |
| Burgundavia | ugh | 04:03 |
| Burgundavia | he is being most non-responsive | 04:03 |
| Burgundavia | I have seen posts to the forums though | 04:03 |
| mkde | its a real shame we can't pool resources | 04:04 |
| Burgundavia | indeed | 04:05 |
| Burgundavia | as the current guide I wouldn't recommend to anyone | 04:06 |
| mkde | i wish he would specify which repository is needed for which application, rather than telling all users to add all repositories | 04:06 |
| Burgundavia | the marilliat one is annoying | 04:07 |
| Burgundavia | as stable and testing don't have am64 | 04:07 |
| Burgundavia | mkde, the word "mains" common in the UK | 04:08 |
| mkde | ? | 04:08 |
| Burgundavia | for power | 04:08 |
| mkde | yes | 04:08 |
| Burgundavia | Ie, you computer is on the mains | 04:08 |
| mkde | yes | 04:08 |
| mkde | if you are asking me ;) | 04:08 |
| Burgundavia | what about AC power | 04:08 |
| Burgundavia | what about plugged in? | 04:08 |
| Burgundavia | is that common? | 04:08 |
| mkde | both are ok | 04:08 |
| mkde | yeah | 04:08 |
| Burgundavia | mains in almost unknown here | 04:09 |
| Burgundavia | I am working on an interface | 04:09 |
| mkde | oh right | 04:09 |
| mkde | just write it in en_CA and get it translated into en_GB and en_US | 04:09 |
| mkde | ;p | 04:09 |
| === mkde takes a long look in the direction of rosetta | ||
| Burgundavia | right | 04:10 |
| Burgundavia | we need something working now | 04:10 |
| Burgundavia | and then we can worry about that | 04:11 |
| Burgundavia | is for the gnome-power project | 04:11 |
| mkde | right | 04:11 |
| mkde | i was just joking about the en variants, I think they are a waste of time | 04:11 |
| Burgundavia | hmm, debatable | 04:11 |
| Burgundavia | but yes, generally, they are weasel ways out | 04:11 |
| Burgundavia | you can look for common words | 04:11 |
| Burgundavia | do you have glade installed? | 04:12 |
| mkde | i'm on windows 2000 | 04:12 |
| mkde | and a pretty unstable one at that | 04:12 |
| Burgundavia | ahhh | 04:12 |
| Burgundavia | I just assume that someone is one Ubuntu | 04:13 |
| Burgundavia | do you have access to an ubuntu system? | 04:13 |
| mkde | not right now | 04:13 |
| === mkde points at mdke | ||
| mkde | i'm at school atm | 04:13 |
| Burgundavia | ah | 04:13 |
| Burgundavia | I seee | 04:14 |
| Burgundavia | you are at work | 04:14 |
| Burgundavia | what are you taking? | 04:14 |
| mkde | its called the Bar Vocational Course | 04:14 |
| mkde | one year course you have to take in order to be a lawyer | 04:14 |
| mkde | over here | 04:14 |
| Burgundavia | ah | 04:15 |
| Burgundavia | glade2 has no undo | 04:15 |
| Burgundavia | very frustrating | 04:16 |
| === mkde looks through ubuntuguide | ||
| mkde | i wonder why he chooses to use the command line instead of using gnome-system-tools on some occasions | 04:18 |

| froud | African Greetings | 04:21 |
| mkde | hi froud | 04:21 |
| froud | hi | 04:21 |
| froud | been a bit busy so have not been tuned. what's happening | 04:22 |
| mkde | froud, you just replied to my mail, 8 minutes before I sent it | 04:22 |
| mkde | that is seriously fast | 04:22 |
| froud | which mail was that | 04:22 |
| mkde | Re: poxml | 04:22 |
| froud | Oh yes | 04:23 |
| froud | so what is new, who is doing what | 04:23 |
| froud | Burgundavia: did you get my message about the installation guide? | 04:23 |
| froud | what do you think you want to integrate it | 04:23 |
| Burgundavia | hadn't got to reading that yet | 04:25 |
| Burgundavia | will do so now and respond to you | 04:25 |
| mkde | froud, how come we use QT poxml scripts rather than python ones? is one better than the other? | 04:26 |
| froud | Ok, if you want just go ahead with the installation guide | 04:26 |
| froud | we found problems with the gnome stuff | 04:26 |
| froud | we got kde stuff working first | 04:27 |
| mkde | oh right | 04:27 |
| mkde | fair enough | 04:27 |
| froud | the end result is the same so no big issue | 04:27 |
| mkde | true | 04:27 |
| mkde | although if both work, it would seem logical to use the one with least dependencies. But if one is easier than the other, then fair enough | 04:28 |
| froud | wel we did not get the gnome ones to work | 04:28 |
| mkde | yeah | 04:28 |
| mkde | ok | 04:28 |
| froud | jeffsch: nice one on the style guide dude | 04:29 |
| Burgundavia | froud, looks good | 04:29 |
| === froud still needs to update the i18n.sh | ||
| froud | yeah, think you can do it | 04:30 |
| Burgundavia | probably | 04:30 |
| froud | I think it should be a new chapter at the end | 04:30 |
| Burgundavia | ok | 04:30 |
| froud | I made the first installation chapter the basic | 04:30 |
| mkde | froud, oh i wanted to ask you: would you check http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/DocteamStepByStepl18n to make sure I haven't got anything wrong | 04:31 |
| froud | stuff like IP config and partions I also placed in their own chanters | 04:31 |
| froud | sure | 04:31 |
| mkde | thx | 04:31 |
| mkde | i'm off now | 04:37 |
| mkde | back on this evening | 04:37 |
| mkde | bye all have fun | 04:38 |
| froud | ok the doc looks good | 04:38 |
| froud | just made a small change | 04:38 |
| mkde | froud, thanks | 04:38 |
| froud | there will be no branch of hoary | 04:38 |
| froud | of a release only a tag | 04:38 |
| mkde | right, yeah just put that in as a parenthesis cos enrico seemed keen | 04:38 |
| mkde | feel free to correct/expand on anything | 04:38 |
| froud | it's compound enouh | 04:38 |
| froud | sure | 04:39 |
| froud | thanks | 04:39 |
| froud | c ya later | 04:39 |
| mkde | bye | 04:39 |
| Burgundavia | froud, how do I do a if else | 04:42 |
| Burgundavia | ie if you run 98 | 04:42 |
| Burgundavia | vs if you run NT | 04:42 |
| froud | Makes sense, perhaps a chapter with sect1 on each and intro para to cover the in then. Can also do this at the top of the doc | 04:43 |
| froud | remember to consider both gnome and kde here | 04:43 |
| froud | although install is mostly about GNU/Linux | 04:44 |
| Burgundavia | the netinstall doc is only how to boot the installer, so the rest holds | 04:44 |
| froud | yes, so perhaps just if then at the begin of the doc | 04:45 |
| froud | what do you think | 04:45 |
| froud | please remember to ass yourself as an author and the author of the document | 04:46 |
| froud | add | 04:46 |
| froud | :-) | 04:46 |
| Burgundavia | yorp | 04:46 |
| froud | sorry | 04:46 |
| froud | going to lectures | 05:31 |
| froud | c ya later | 05:31 |
