[03:29] heh [03:29] that's the pirated heaven [03:29] DVD9 movies at RM9 [03:29] DVD5 - 3 for RM10 [03:29] i don't think it'll stop its so rampant in SE Asia [03:30] its already a way of life [03:30] DVD software/games = RM15 [03:30] CD software = RM3 [03:30] no way they can stop [03:30] government tried [03:30] but failed [03:30] yeah its just impossible at the moment [03:30] but it's weird... when they say piracy control... [03:30] then this lowyat place (which is a building) [03:30] heh [03:30] ppl actually setup shop just to sell pirated stuff [03:31] if they want to stop... why not just closed all those shop [03:31] not so difficult [03:31] is that like a building where there are stalls all over selling the same thing [03:31] u read on news... but see no action on the pirated heaven place [03:31] and it's a very common place [03:31] isn't the BSA active there? [03:32] hardly see action [03:32] i can understand the video game piracy [03:32] bsa will only advertise on tv and radio... just to freek ppl out [03:32] the console makers won't even launch in SE Asia (except singapre) [03:32] true... i think xbox is not launched here [03:32] that's why MMORPGs from Korea are so popular === jiyuu0 got the xbox though :) [03:33] modded of course [03:33] ic [03:33] well... when i'm back using windows... frankly... can't leave withouth piracy [03:34] it's so cheap to test/use software at home [03:34] yeah [03:34] its so accessible you can't ignore it [03:34] lucky now on open source... so hardly use pirated stuff [03:34] i've seen game shops sell only pirated games [03:34] true :) [03:34] especially the dvd9 movies [03:34] yeah [03:35] original = between RM 39 to RM 200 [03:35] pirated = RM 9 [03:35] so much different [03:35] the weird thing is that the quality is so good for a pirated material [03:35] true :) [03:35] they make their own compilation [03:35] even the cd cover is nice === robitaille [~robitaill@d154-5-117-228.bchsia.telus.net] has joined #ubuntu-doc [03:35] yeah i've seen 2-in-1 dvd9 movies [03:36] 2 in 1 dvd 9 is actually 2 dvd5 in it [03:36] when i went to hong kong a while back, it was video game heaven [03:37] oh... hongkong also piracy heaven?

[03:38] not so much on movies, they have a lot of stuff in mandarin [03:38] so how bout manila? [03:38] just like in KL i guess, but KL is much more urban [03:38] in terms of piracy we have our moments [03:38] heh [03:38] movie piracy is so big [03:39] as well as software [03:39] BSA isnt doing anything either [03:39] i think most of the stuff come from the backdoor, down south going to sabah [03:39] true... they seems to be like drama ppl [03:40] while price of oil is still high, the only price that doesn't go up here are pirated stuff [03:41] (not to mention its tax free as well) [03:42] true :) [03:43] the price of piracy always goes lower and lower === jiyuu0 gotta go grab some breakfast... brb :) === judax [~troywill1@adsl-68-91-192-213.dsl.austtx.swbell.net] has joined #ubuntu-doc === EricNeon [~ericneon@203.148.3.94] has joined #ubuntu-doc === easthero [~edc@220.248.180.2] has joined #ubuntu-doc [04:44] so less people [04:44] -_- [04:44] hi,all [04:45] hello [04:47] hello [04:47] what can we do for you [04:47] EricNeon, hi its been a while how have you been [04:48] ^ [04:48] we have translation the ubuntuguide to chinese [04:48] easthero had translated ubuntuguide into chinese [04:49] jsgotangco, you can find out at wiki.ubuntu.org.cn [04:49] hmmm ubuntuguide is jiyuu0's personal work its not part of the ubuntu-doc work (at the moment though) [04:49] sure [04:50] EricNeon, the major translator is youI can only be called maintainer [04:50] oh, [04:50] wow this thing is huge [04:51] I will do it go on next week while I have time [04:51] the warty guide is update still [04:52] have you guys talked to smurfix about your LoCo team? === jsgotangco should brush up his mandarin again soon [04:53] oh,thank you [04:53] I will [04:55] if you need help on that, just tell me so [04:56] thx, [04:57] jsgotangco, www.ubuntuguide.org is a unoffical group?

[08:35] you can also do commands in esvn [08:35] you see the log window [08:35] yeah just at the bottom [08:35] thats what i use [08:35] yeah, that is the same working in a shell [08:36] so you can type commands directly into esvn [08:36] yeah === mdke rubs eyes in disbelief [08:36] ugh [08:36] im trying to absorb this as much as i can [08:36] and why does mdke say ugh [08:36] just in case *knocks on wood* you decide to go further [08:37] froud, 5 hours sleep is not enough [08:37] jsgotangco: we all make errors, main thing is you learn form them.

[03:11] ok [03:11] cool [03:11] apart from that it's just an infobot, so it outputs whatever you put in. [03:12] you could program it with the faq easly enough [03:12] just take alot of time to get the triggers and responses done [03:12] I expect so (well, someone who knew actual perl, as opposed to mock perl) [03:12] ok, when you start doing that, would you mind chatting with the doc team beforehand? [03:13] No worries [03:13] cheers [03:13] then we can sort of control the quality [03:13] i'll need to see first how running it goes; I've had a scary amount of portscans since starting the bot [03:15] Awright, my wife wants her laptop back. See youse later :-) [03:15] ok [03:46] Burgundavia, can u view this page? [03:46] http://jiyuu0.homelinux.org:7979 [03:46] i'm testing streaming media server [03:50] yep === mkde [~Matt_@217.150.124.162] has joined #ubuntu-doc [03:52] Burgundavia, can it stream audio? [03:52] hi dudes [03:52] http://jiyuu0.homelinux.org:7979/Richard%20Marx%20-%20Ready%20To%20Fly.mp3.m3u [03:52] mkde, hello :) [03:53] hiya [03:58] jiyuu0, did you and jscotango talk at all about ubuntuguide and docbook? [03:58] mkde, nope [03:58] mkde = mdke ? [03:58] yeah [03:58] can u help me test something? [03:58] sure [03:58] http://jiyuu0.homelinux.org:7979/Richard%20Marx%20-%20Ready%20To%20Fly.mp3.m3u [03:58] download this play list [03:58] except that [03:58] and try can it or not? [03:59] ic [03:59] fraid not [03:59] no soundcard/mediaplayer on this pc [03:59] ic... [03:59] i'm on a stupid windows computer at my college [03:59] it's ok :) [03:59] in the library ;) [03:59] ic... [03:59] jiyuu0, i hear music from that link :) [03:59] it skips a lot though... [04:00] cool... and u can still connect to irc .. not bad [04:00] Seveas, thanks :) [04:00] my line here is bad [04:00] jiyuu0, i'm on mirc [04:00] but if it can connect and streams... means it's wopking :) [04:00] indeed :) [04:00] mirc = windows [04:00] Seveas, thanks :) [04:01] ok... just added [04:01] http://ubuntuguide.org/#streamingmediaserver [04:01] i use gnump3d for streaming audio, its awesome [04:01] it can stream video too :) [04:01] cool [04:01] anyway docbook [04:01] the advantages would be immense [04:02] docbook is very good for porting: it can be easily converted to html, pdf, everything. [04:02] also, we could publish the guide in ubuntu local help [04:02] also, we can open the guide for editing to increase its quality [04:03] also, we can translate the guide easily via rosetta [04:03] also, we can ensure that the guide is ready for release time [04:03] jiyuu0, what are your thoughts on this? [04:03] true... and it will be everybody's work [04:04] jiyuu0, is that good or bad? [04:04] from your point of view [04:04] but... it would be hard for me to modify it based on my style [04:04] jiyuu0, what do you mean? [04:05] hey the channel is big today [04:05] i'm workin on this proj soon [04:05] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=36614&highlight=ubuntu+handbook [04:06] have a dead line actually [04:07] jiyuu0, what are your reasons for working outside the documentation team on this stuff? [04:07] i have a open source club going on and i'm using it for my material [04:07] workshops and stuff [04:08] the add-on-cd purpose is because during training... there's no way i can ask 30 students to apt-get at same time [04:08] and that's how the add-on-cd was born [04:08] right [04:09] initially when i started the ubuntuguide... it was my reference [04:09] somehow release to share it... [04:10] then it grew and grew and grew [04:10] but you understand that it is the role of the documentation team to try and produce good collective documentation for Ubuntu, using all of the resources possible, and that where things are produced outside the team, it makes this job quite a lot harder [04:11] the guy who started that thread has essentially asked the same question that the docteam has been trying to address for months [04:11] we want to draw on all the excellent material and try and organise it so that it is accessible to all [04:11] in a simple and clear way [04:13] i understand [04:13] but just not sure how it's going to work [04:13] is ti [04:13] convert the guide [04:13] then public as open [04:13] and others can ammend [04:14] well it would be essential that the document be open source yes [04:14] but in the repository only certain people have upload access [04:15] in practice generally the documents are only worked on by one or two people [04:15] we also are trying to find a way to use the material contained in the wiki [04:20] jiyuu0, what would be the disadvantages from your point of view? [04:21] i guess it's the feeling of losing control over it [04:21] as the main reason it's close (but available online) is because it's cathered to my own preference/reference. [04:21] jiyuu0, here's my opinion [04:22] jiyuu0, the ubuntuguide has such a massive following that essentially it has become the major piece of documentation about Ubuntu [04:22] jiyuu0, for this reason, I believe it is important that it is opensource [04:23] brb [04:27] ok back [04:27] so i was saying [04:28] when a guide assumes that great an audience, its important that the quality is maintained carefully [04:29] also I believe that it is a great guide so should be brought to the ubuntu local help as well as those who use the internet [04:29] but these are simply my opinions [04:29] jiyuu0 you're the author and its your decision [04:32] gimme some time to think bout it... my rush now is the Training Material + Coursebook for Ubuntu [04:33] jiyuu0, ok, let us know. If you decide to open it up, it will take a bit of time to port it [04:34] <_froud> jiyuu0: why dont you just work with us. We have discussed with you on this before. We welcome you and support you but your content is not free and open === _froud is now known as froud [04:36] gimme some time [04:36] jiyuu0, *nods* [04:37] thanks :) [04:37] jiyuu0: I need to understand, some weeks ago we discusse dthis with you [04:37] back then you also said give time === enrico [~enrico@enrico.developer.debian] has joined #ubuntu-doc === froud is now known as froud-away === zulu [~sean@ndn-165-128-37.telkomadsl.co.za] has joined #ubuntu-doc === zulu is now known as venda [06:13] African Greetings - today is Africa Day [06:13] I am an African === Seveas [~seveas@seveas.demon.nl] has joined #ubuntu-doc === jjesse [~jjesse@mail.ftpb.com] has joined #ubuntu-doc === Seveas [~seveas@seveas.demon.nl] has joined #ubuntu-doc === maskie [~marius@196-30-109-167.uudial.uunet.co.za] has joined #ubuntu-doc === maskie [~marius@196-30-109-167.uudial.uunet.co.za] has left #ubuntu-doc [] [10:10] somebody up for working on the network install document [10:11] it can be found in https://docteam.ubuntu.com/repos/trunk/generic/instalguide/C [10:11] it is a rough dump and transform to docbook from the original authors web site [10:12] need to be reviewed and written in a way that can fit in the main generic install guide [10:13] any takers on the channel [10:19] didn't froud send something in the mailing list that he was working on it? [10:19] that is froud [10:19] ;) [10:20] venda = froud [10:20] oh sorry didn't know that [10:20] * learned something new today [10:20] ;) [10:20] it is a new nick [10:38] grin [10:39] where there any takers on it? if not i can try and invest sometime tonight [10:39] don't know how much time i will have wife has talked me into getting a dog and we are picking it up tonight [10:39] *grins* [10:39] awesome [10:40] just a note, you should set your webfilter to block pet adoption places :) === abelli [~john@16bfd25bac39b218.session.tor] has joined #ubuntu-doc [10:47] ciao [10:47] ola [10:53] ala cool [10:53] making it, I think [10:54] mdke: what do you think we should do with all the samples [10:55] you mean the
 stuff?
[10:55]  Hmm the links to text files
[10:56]  erm
[10:56]  should be link to them
[10:56]  i haven't seen em
[10:56]  alrighty have a good night, i'll try to look at hte installguide if i have a chance
[10:56]  some of the OK, but some are just part of the output a user will see on command
[10:56]  like dpkg.list
[10:56]  ok i see em
[10:57]  hmm
[10:57]  no idea
[10:57]  its a trade off
[10:57]  if we keep them then we must update them
[10:57]  update them?
[10:58]  if we dont then will it impact the reader
[10:58]  hmmm
[10:58]  well some may change from time-to-time
[10:58]  oh yeah
[10:58]  we should keep em imo
[10:58]  this means we have to track them
[10:58]  is there an easy way to do it from a technical point of view?
[10:58]  anything is possible its just needs to be programmed :-)
[10:59]  hmm
[10:59]  perhaps they don't add a huge amount
[10:59]  maybe we need to decide on a case-by-case basis
[11:00]  if sample is of a command output then the user will see it on screen
[11:00]  shall we leave the decision til later?
[11:00]  take dpkg.list for example
[11:00]  it could be different for each computer
[11:00]  yes we can
[11:00]  I can also just inlcude the files in the body of the document on processing
[11:01]  that way they stay as external files, but when we process the content will be expanded into the body of the document
[11:01]  I would like to close up as many issues as I can so that others can get at the doucment and hack parts they want
[11:02]  I would like this baby up asap
[11:02]  I will do the kubuntu stuff, since I think I am the only person using Kubuntu
[11:03]  plan on Riddle putting it up on kubuntu.org
[11:06]  cool
[11:06]  Be BaCk LaTeR
