Madpilot | anyone here? | 10:47 |
highvoltage | i'm sure there is | 10:47 |
highvoltage | it's sunday morning, so most ppl are probably asleep | 10:48 |
Madpilot | you know, I had no idea how late it was - almost 0200 here. heh... | 10:48 |
highvoltage | heh. is that us western time? | 10:49 |
Madpilot | Pacific Daylight | 10:50 |
highvoltage | wow. time is complicated in the usa. | 10:50 |
highvoltage | in south africa we just have one time, and it stays the same. always. | 10:50 |
Madpilot | perhaps - except that I'm in Canada... ;) | 10:51 |
Madpilot | RSA doesn't use daylight savings? | 10:51 |
highvoltage | nope. | 10:51 |
highvoltage | we don't really need it. we have enough daylight throughout the year :) | 10:51 |
Madpilot | we need to save it, this far north! | 10:52 |
highvoltage | in the summer, the sun comes up at 6, sets at 20:00, in the winter, it comes up at 7:00, sets at 19:00 | 10:52 |
highvoltage | yeah | 10:52 |
Madpilot | winter, here: up @ 0800, down before 1700 at worst. summer, up before 0600 and down past 2100 | 10:53 |
Madpilot | 49 degrees North does that... ;) | 10:53 |
highvoltage | i'm sure george bush will fund a project to change the virtual tilt of the earth :) | 10:54 |
Madpilot | he's just dumb enough. Canadian politicians are (slightly) more intelligent... | 10:54 |
highvoltage | true. | 10:54 |
Burgundavia | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AptAuthenticationInstructionsForHoary | 10:54 |
Burgundavia | what should I do with it? | 10:55 |
highvoltage | Burgundavia, Madpilot: are you related? | 10:56 |
Burgundavia | highvoltage, Madpilot is my old brother | 10:56 |
Burgundavia | I converted him to Ubuntu after his XP died | 10:56 |
highvoltage | that's cool. | 10:57 |
poningru | hehe | 10:59 |
poningru | how old apart are you guys? | 10:59 |
Madpilot | four years | 10:59 |
poningru | oh I thought it would be bigger diff, Burgundavia highvoltage, Madpilot is my old brother | 11:00 |
Madpilot | heh. Burgundavia can't type worth a d*mn - that should be "older"... | 11:00 |
poningru | oh | 11:01 |
poningru | gotcha | 11:01 |
poningru | doh should have realized that | 11:01 |
Burgundavia | ya ya | 11:01 |
=== Madpilot predicts that Burgundavia's next post here will contain at least one typo | ||
Burgundavia | asdflkjasdfhpoiasdf | 11:01 |
Madpilot | did you type that with your forehead? | 11:01 |
highvoltage | qwerty! aaah! | 11:01 |
Burgundavia | nope | 11:02 |
Burgundavia | did it with me hands! | 11:02 |
poningru | dvorak? | 11:02 |
poningru | ah | 11:02 |
highvoltage | poningru: i use qwerty too, been wanting to switch for the longest time, but can't afford it. | 11:02 |
poningru | hehe too true | 11:04 |
Burgundavia | huh? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TechnologyChoices | 11:05 |
Madpilot | what's that page *for*? | 11:06 |
highvoltage | hmmm.. good question. i can kinda see what they tried to do. | 11:07 |
highvoltage | i wonder what "conforming programs" and non-conforming programs are. | 11:07 |
Burgundavia | I like the term "no useful content" | 11:07 |
Burgundavia | it is so broad | 11:07 |
highvoltage | oh, there it's gone :) | 11:08 |
Madpilot | have you already killed that page? | 11:08 |
Burgundavia | yes | 11:08 |
highvoltage | i wish people would log on when they edit pages, at least you can contact them if you need to find out why they created it. | 11:08 |
Burgundavia | they must | 11:08 |
Burgundavia | the adsl stuff is the wiki auto importer | 11:08 |
highvoltage | that page was edited by an adsl-someting-something, was that a username? | 11:09 |
highvoltage | aaaaah | 11:09 |
highvoltage | imported from where? | 11:09 |
Burgundavia | the old wiki | 11:09 |
poningru | question | 11:11 |
poningru | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/OpenOffice2Beta | 11:11 |
poningru | why is that like that? | 11:11 |
poningru | shouldnt we just say just update when the rep updates | 11:12 |
Madpilot | OO2 is in the repos anyway | 11:12 |
Madpilot | I keep meaning to install it to try it out | 11:12 |
poningru | its good | 11:13 |
poningru | oh btw I am talking about that scritp | 11:13 |
poningru | sigh script | 11:13 |
Madpilot | I assume that script gets the very, very latest crack of OOo2, instead of whatever is in the repos? | 11:13 |
Burgundavia | the breezy repos have the newest crack | 11:14 |
Burgundavia | just needs a backport | 11:14 |
Burgundavia | along with about a whole sh*tload of java | 11:14 |
Madpilot | hmmm. maybe just ditch the script in favour of info on adding the breezy repos to hoary? | 11:14 |
Burgundavia | no | 11:15 |
Madpilot | or should that all just go into BreakMyUbuntu? | 11:15 |
Burgundavia | tell the person to use hoary-backports | 11:15 |
Burgundavia | s/tell the person/edit the page to say | 11:15 |
Madpilot | that's even simpler | 11:15 |
poningru | yeah | 11:15 |
poningru | thats what I was thinking of | 11:15 |
poningru | do we use user pages? | 11:16 |
Burgundavia | what do you mean? | 11:16 |
poningru | cause I just wanted to add articles to do list to my page | 11:16 |
poningru | like wikipedia has user pages | 11:16 |
poningru | which allow a user to keep his/her own page | 11:16 |
Madpilot | you can subscribe to a page, i know | 11:16 |
poningru | hmm | 11:17 |
Madpilot | and your subscribed articles are listed on your User Prefs page | 11:17 |
highvoltage | where would you download OOo2MenuItems.tar.gz? it doesn't say that in the howto. | 11:18 |
Burgundavia | hoary backports is the way to go for that page | 11:19 |
Madpilot | here's more info: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=30866&page=1&pp=10 | 11:19 |
Burgundavia | seb payne is that 16 year old I was telling you about, Madpilot | 11:20 |
Madpilot | here: http://www.evolutioncolt.com/mainweb/?q=node/11 | 11:21 |
Madpilot | that's what the wiki page is based on I think - the Ubuntu forum link is dead | 11:22 |
poningru | ooh when did canonical change their website | 11:25 |
poningru | pretty | 11:25 |
Burgundavia | looks very similar to the ubuntu one, so I assume the same time | 11:30 |
poningru | looks different to me | 11:31 |
Burgundavia | same css, different colours | 11:32 |
poningru | anywhere I can find the ubuntu history page? | 11:33 |
poningru | ah true | 11:33 |
Madpilot | css makes that sort of trick so *easy*, it's great | 11:33 |
poningru | hehe so true | 11:34 |
rob^ | hey, what wiki package do we use? | 11:34 |
Burgundavia | history page? | 11:34 |
Burgundavia | rob^, moinmoin | 11:34 |
rob^ | Burgundavia, ah ok | 11:34 |
rob^ | thanks | 11:34 |
Madpilot | just added this: http://linuxcommand.org/ to the UserDocumentation page, right down at the bottom | 11:37 |
Madpilot | with "other resources" | 11:37 |
Madpilot | hmmm... Totem doesn't have a wiki page at all... | 11:40 |
Burgundavia | no | 11:40 |
Madpilot | likewise XPDF, even if it does bite | 11:42 |
Burgundavia | xpdf is crap | 11:42 |
Burgundavia | talk about evince | 11:42 |
Burgundavia | and anyway, wikipages should probably be mostly tasked based | 11:42 |
Madpilot | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UserDocumentation <-- there's a whole raft of links here to app-specific pages | 11:43 |
Burgundavia | yes | 11:43 |
Madpilot | but many of them aren't the default apps anyway, AFAIK | 11:44 |
Burgundavia | indeed | 11:44 |
Burgundavia | we need to promote existing applications and soutions | 11:44 |
Burgundavia | the bittorrent page could use some love | 11:44 |
poningru | hehe please dont decide on azureus for that | 11:46 |
Madpilot | I know zip about BT, wouldn't know where to start | 11:46 |
Burgundavia | pretty easy | 11:46 |
Burgundavia | you click on the link and it happens | 11:46 |
poningru | rofl | 11:47 |
Madpilot | funny guy. I don't use FF, remember? | 11:47 |
Burgundavia | we need slightly more featureful application | 11:47 |
Burgundavia | sorry, we don't support Opera | 11:47 |
Madpilot | slightly more what? | 11:47 |
poningru | Madpilot: what do you use? | 11:47 |
Madpilot | Opera | 11:47 |
poningru | wow | 11:47 |
Burgundavia | currently, it is one link to one window | 11:47 |
poningru | erhm sorry didnt mean anything by it | 11:47 |
Burgundavia | would be nice to bring it into one window | 11:47 |
Madpilot | Burgundavia: I really don't know what you're talking about... | 11:48 |
Burgundavia | basically each bittorrent you have open is a seperate window and seperate app | 11:49 |
Burgundavia | makes it difficult to store stuff over a reboot, because you have to remember where you put it | 11:50 |
poningru | thats true | 11:51 |
poningru | linux really doesnt have any good bt clients | 11:51 |
Madpilot | that's with GNOME torrents? | 11:52 |
poningru | well there is azureus | 11:52 |
Burgundavia | I saw a mockup that someone posted a while ago | 11:52 |
Burgundavia | azureus is waaay too many buttons | 11:52 |
poningru | but its pretty resource hogish | 11:52 |
poningru | yeah | 11:52 |
poningru | what I like is ABC | 11:52 |
poningru | but their linux release is limited to the 6 month old release | 11:52 |
Burgundavia | ouch | 11:53 |
poningru | its limited to just the good features | 11:53 |
poningru | yeah | 11:53 |

Burgundavia | night all! | 11:54 |
poningru | do we have a basic glossary page? | 11:56 |
Madpilot | no idea. if not, we need one. | 11:57 |
poningru | yeah | 11:57 |
poningru | how long ago was this wiki started? | 11:57 |
Madpilot | no idea there either | 11:57 |
Madpilot | searchig "Glossary" got me no hits except an italian page | 11:58 |
poningru | hmm yeah | 11:58 |
