| rob^ | are you looking for help testing laptops Burgundavia? | 02:21 |
| Burgundavia | rob^, if you have one and think you can be very rigous, join the team | 02:22 |
| Burgundavia | rob^, canonical shipped laptops to us to get tested | 02:22 |
| jsgotangco | yeah mjg59 can't do it all | 02:23 |
| Burgundavia | rob^, if you think you can test it as thoroughly as they are expected us to | 02:24 |
| jsgotangco | well they are supposed to be test units to us for 3 releases... | 02:25 |
| jsgotangco | and take care of Windows as well | 02:26 |
| Burgundavia | ugh | 02:27 |
| jsgotangco | i should update my blog | 02:28 |
| jsgotangco | heh | 02:28 |
| Burgundavia | jsgotangco, are you syndicated on p.u.c? | 02:29 |
| jsgotangco | nope | 02:29 |
| jsgotangco | should i be? | 02:29 |
| Burgundavia | talk to jdub | 02:31 |
| Burgundavia | no reason not to be. after all, I am there | 02:31 |
| jsgotangco | ok i'll ask him when i get to see him on irc | 02:32 |
| Burgundavia | he is almost in the same timezone as you | 02:33 |
| rob^ | I wish I had a laptop | 02:35 |
| rob^ | would make writing a lot easier | 02:35 |
| Burgundavia | so would bazaar | 02:35 |
| rob^ | at the moment I'm running sygwin on a Windows NT box, using u2d and d2u to convert our .xml files and editing them in notepad | 02:36 |
| Burgundavia | ouch | 02:36 |
| rob^ | from an Xlivecd | 02:36 |
| rob^ | yeah not wrong | 02:38 |
| jsgotangco | ok see you guys later, i have to go back to my dentist (ouch) | 02:40 |
| Burgundavia | poor bastard | 02:40 |
| jsgotangco | yeah, getting old sucks | 02:40 |
| Burgundavia | jsgotangco, how old are you? | 02:41 |
| jsgotangco | ill be 31 on Aug. 28 | 02:42 |
| Burgundavia | oh. I am only 22 | 02:42 |
| Burgundavia | I feel so young | 02:42 |
| jsgotangco | i have been doing linux since rh 5.2 | 02:42 |
| jsgotangco | but only got involved lately | 02:42 |
| === Razor-X [n=user@user-11fa9ie.dsl.mindspring.com] has joined #ubuntu-doc | ||
| Burgundavia | ah | 02:43 |
| Razor-X | hmmm? | 02:43 |
| rob^ | ah red hat 5 | 02:44 |
| Burgundavia | I started with RH 8 | 02:44 |
| rob^ | brings back memories | 02:44 |
| jsgotangco | rob^: yeah those were the days of manually configuring xfree86 | 02:44 |
| rob^ | configuring sound with that command line app and hearing linus' voice | 02:44 |
| rob^ | pronounce linux | 02:44 |
| jsgotangco | yeah | 02:45 |
| Razor-X | Debian Woody is where I started | 02:45 |
| jsgotangco | you had to pay for decent sound back then | 02:45 |
| rob^ | what year was rh5 released again? | 02:45 |
| Razor-X | I had to do a floppy install | 02:45 |
| rob^ | yeah | 02:45 |
| jsgotangco | hmm 97 or 98 | 02:45 |
| rob^ | I thought so | 02:45 |
| Razor-X | because the 486 on which I installed Debian on had it's CD removed because it had only 2 IDE ports on the motherboard | 02:45 |
| jsgotangco | i even bought caldera open linux | 02:45 |
| jsgotangco | but caldera was good back then | 02:46 |
| jsgotangco | until rh 6.2 came out with E | 02:46 |
| rob^ | yes, I had an "open circulation edition" of caldera | 02:46 |
| rob^ | gui installers mmmm | 02:46 |
| rob^ | and the game of tetris at the end | 02:46 |
| jsgotangco | yeah haha | 02:46 |
| jsgotangco | jeez | 02:46 |
| rob^ | ok I gtg out shopping now | 02:47 |
| rob^ | cys | 02:47 |
| jsgotangco | same here | 02:47 |
| rob^ | cyas | 02:47 |
| Burgundavia | someone suggested playing games on our installer | 02:47 |
| jsgotangco | later | 02:47 |
| jsgotangco | Burgundavia: it was done before | 02:47 |
| Burgundavia | ya | 02:47 |
| jsgotangco | Burgundavia: but we only have a text installer | 02:47 |
| jsgotangco | unless we add a typing game | 02:47 |
| rob^ | add tuxracer | 02:48 |
| rob^ | hehe | 02:48 |

| Burgundavia | yes | 02:48 |
| Madpilot | hi all | 02:48 |
| jsgotangco | well k i really haveto go cya | 02:48 |
| Burgundavia | salut Madpilot | 02:50 |
| Madpilot | hi Burgundavia - swearing at XP yet? | 02:50 |
| Burgundavia | no | 02:50 |
| Burgundavia | I have spent about 5 minutes in XP | 02:50 |
| Madpilot | thought you had the lappie already? | 02:51 |
| Burgundavia | I did | 02:51 |
| Burgundavia | I have already installed Hoary | 02:51 |
| Burgundavia | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam/ToshibaTecraA5 | 02:51 |
| Madpilot | ah, cool. so swearing at Hoary instead? ;) | 02:51 |
| Burgundavia | sort of | 02:52 |
| Burgundavia | got some random crashes | 02:52 |
| Madpilot | yeah, just reading your reporting page | 02:52 |
| Madpilot | did they give the same model to more than one person? | 02:53 |
| Burgundavia | shouldn't of | 02:53 |
| Burgundavia | that would be a waste | 02:53 |
| Madpilot | no? makes it a bit harder to seperate user issues and/or hardware issues from Ubuntu-issues, then | 02:54 |
| Burgundavia | not really | 02:55 |
| Burgundavia | the people they have shipped the laptops to are likely to know what they are doing | 02:55 |
| Madpilot | true enough - any idea how many they shipped? | 02:56 |
| Burgundavia | no idea | 02:56 |
| Burgundavia | we will find out very soon though | 02:56 |
| Burgundavia | going to do that to dads laptop when he gets back as well | 02:56 |
| Burgundavia | and the other ones of dads I have sitting here | 02:56 |
| Madpilot | good idea. you've already tried the live CD on Dad's new sony, haven't you/ | 02:57 |
| Madpilot | ? | 02:57 |
| Burgundavia | yes | 02:57 |
| Burgundavia | but I haven't tested as thoroughly as I have this one | 02:58 |
| Madpilot | Dad might require some convincing to let you mess with his primary work computer... | 02:58 |
| Burgundavia | not going to install | 02:58 |
| Madpilot | just test via LiveCD? | 02:58 |
| Burgundavia | yes | 02:59 |
| Madpilot | why to run Linux, reason #45,354: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/4745053.stm | 03:00 |
| Burgundavia | yes | 03:02 |
| Burgundavia | unfortunately, whoever wrote that didn't mention that those are exclusively windows issues | 03:02 |
| Madpilot | the Beeb used to refer to "Windows viruses" - wonder if MS coughed meaningfully? | 03:03 |
| Burgundavia | never know | 03:03 |
| Burgundavia | likely the reporter was different or thought they were not only writing about viruses | 03:04 |
| Madpilot | guess so, and of course "home computer = Windows comuter" for most ppl... | 03:05 |
| Burgundavia | for 95% of the world | 03:05 |
| Madpilot | yeah. Did you see that Brazillian Ubuntu Bus article in forums? | 03:06 |
| Burgundavia | yes | 03:06 |
| Burgundavia | and lwn and planet.ubuntu and some mailing list I am on | 03:07 |
| Madpilot | yeah, I found it via planet.ubuntu too | 03:07 |
| Madpilot | heh - Tim Berners-Lee is a Unitarian... http://www.guardian.co.uk/online/news/0,12597,1547447,00.html?gusrc=rss | 03:08 |
| Madpilot | so I bought a new printer today - haven't plugged it in yet. HP Deskjet somelongnumber - linuxprinting.org gave it high marks | 03:11 |
| Burgundavia | cool | 03:12 |

| Burgundavia | geez | 06:08 |
| Madpilot | ? | 06:11 |
| Burgundavia | beagled had eaten so much of my ram my machine basically was unresponsive | 06:14 |
| Burgundavia | and any mono app is currently borked, so I am going to restart the machine | 06:14 |
| Madpilot | for the first time in how many days? | 06:15 |
| Burgundavia | a very long time. Beagled has mostly been non-working until recently | 06:15 |
| Madpilot | ... why I don't do beta apps... | 06:16 |
| Burgundavia | actually, it is only blam that does it | 06:16 |
| Madpilot | my current uptime is almost 3 days - damned power outage almost three days ago! ;) | 06:16 |
| Burgundavia | you got that too? | 06:17 |
| Burgundavia | we had it as well | 06:17 |
| Madpilot | "im not really an idiot, but i do play one on the internet" <-- just went past on main channel. | 06:17 |
| Madpilot | we've had a bunch of short power outages in the last two weeks or so | 06:18 |
| Burgundavia | yes | 06:18 |
| Burgundavia | quite annoying | 06:18 |
| Madpilot | the one when you were here, and two since then | 06:18 |
| Burgundavia | they have affected me as well | 06:18 |
| Burgundavia | we were the south edge of it | 06:18 |
| Madpilot | irritating | 06:19 |
| Madpilot | actually I've got to shut this machine down this weekend, I want to clear those two old drives off before I sell them | 06:19 |
| Burgundavia | I want my old 20 back if you don't need it | 06:21 |
| Burgundavia | I will need it for my server | 06:21 |
| Madpilot | ya, sure. I'm selling the other one to Cam. poor drive | 06:22 |
| Madpilot | ;) | 06:22 |
| Madpilot | assuming one or both isn't borked, of course... | 06:22 |
| Burgundavia | reformat them both | 06:22 |
| Burgundavia | that should mark any errors | 06:22 |
| Madpilot | will do - but will that work with fat32 formatting? | 06:23 |
| Burgundavia | yes | 06:24 |
| Burgundavia | I will be back in a second or maybe longer if my machine doesn't come back up | 06:24 |

| HrdwrBoB | :o | 06:28 |
| Burgundavia | but all mono apps are still borked | 06:29 |
| Burgundavia | alright, one sort of funny blog post written | 06:56 |
| Madpilot | what're you drinking tonight, Burgundavia? | 06:59 |
| Madpilot | "great flaming sword of organization" indeed... | 06:59 |
| Burgundavia | do you follow my rss directly? | 07:00 |
| Madpilot | no, I just found an old planet entry of yours and direct to your (ugly) blog | 07:00 |
| Burgundavia | I will be moved to my own server eventually | 07:00 |
| Madpilot | in the meantime, can't you drop a stylesheet on your advogato blog? it needs something to cover it up! | 07:01 |
| Burgundavia | don't think so | 07:01 |
| Madpilot | too bad... | 07:01 |
| Burgundavia | relieved or releived? | 07:02 |
| Madpilot | i before e, except when some damn exception says otherwise, remember? | 07:03 |
| Burgundavia | ya ya | 07:03 |
| Burgundavia | didn't trust my thinking | 07:03 |
| Madpilot | <evil grin> I found a pic you can use for your icon-thingie on planet.ubuntu: http://www.warbard.ca/temp/uglydog.jpg | 07:09 |
| Burgundavia | ugh | 07:11 |
| Burgundavia | can you do some gimp-foo for me? | 07:11 |
| Madpilot | on the dog? sure | 07:11 |
| Burgundavia | good XP is ugly | 07:11 |
| Burgundavia | no | 07:11 |
| Madpilot | no dog pic? what on, then? | 07:11 |

| Madpilot | that pic of you? with little planet-style dropshadow thingie? can do | 07:12 |
| Madpilot | I can even get rid of the redeye, probably | 07:12 |
| Burgundavia | thanks | 07:13 |
| Burgundavia | windows is even uglier with non-fisher price crap | 07:13 |
| Burgundavia | gah | 07:13 |
| Burgundavia | I also have 10 icons in my notification area | 07:14 |

| poningru | sorry guys but my work on docs stopped about 2 weeks ago | 08:12 |
| poningru | and wont start again unless I can find time during college | 08:12 |
| Burgundavia | np | 08:12 |
| Burgundavia | RL is more important | 08:12 |
| poningru | RL? | 08:14 |
| poningru | real life | 08:14 |
| poningru | hehe true | 08:14 |
| poningru | well I am recruiting people at the local lug | 08:15 |
| poningru | but I was kinda hoping to join the laptop testing team before college started | 08:15 |
| poningru | I have a Presario 2100 Compaq | 08:15 |
| poningru | if the testing can be boiled down to something like an hour per week | 08:15 |
| Burgundavia | joining the team needs a lot of work | 08:15 |
| poningru | I am sure I can manage | 08:15 |
| poningru | ooph | 08:15 |
| Burgundavia | probably an hour a week would probaby be all ou would need | 08:16 |
| poningru | oh | 08:16 |
| Burgundavia | a couple of hours at first | 08:16 |
| Burgundavia | to test everypiece of hardware | 08:16 |
| poningru | yeah I am willing to do that | 08:16 |
| Burgundavia | every button, etc. | 08:16 |
| Burgundavia | then just reinstall on each new release | 08:16 |
| poningru | I have tested the crap out of this one | 08:16 |
| poningru | xev etc. | 08:16 |
| poningru | whats the process to get on the team? | 08:18 |
| Burgundavia | you join | 08:18 |
| Burgundavia | the part where they handed out free laptops is over | 08:18 |
| poningru | well I dont want free laptops | 08:20 |
| poningru | I already have one | 08:20 |
| poningru | how do I join? | 08:20 |
| === poningru is confoozled | ||
| Burgundavia | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam | 08:21 |
| Burgundavia | add yourself to that page | 08:21 |
| Burgundavia | and create a subpage | 08:21 |
| poningru | ok | 08:22 |
| Burgundavia | see what we have done | 08:22 |
| poningru | ah ic | 08:23 |
| poningru | but what about https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam/Requests | 08:23 |
| poningru | the people down there | 08:23 |
| poningru | maybe someone should contact them | 08:23 |
| poningru | most people there seem to have their own laptops | 08:24 |
| poningru | and are willing to use it to test | 08:24 |
| Burgundavia | sure | 08:24 |
| Burgundavia | I just moved the page today | 08:24 |
| poningru | ah ic | 08:26 |
| Burgundavia | poningru, what is US? | 08:33 |
| Burgundavia | poningru, the key part about contact is that you can be reached | 08:33 |
| poningru | dont know | 08:33 |
| poningru | ah ok | 08:33 |
| Burgundavia | [""] will link Poningru | 08:34 |
| poningru | I guess I can put up an user page | 08:34 |
| poningru | or just link to my email addy | 08:34 |
| Burgundavia | better to create a user page | 08:34 |
| poningru | anyway about the US | 08:34 |
| poningru | the model number of the laptop is Presario 2140US | 08:35 |
| Burgundavia | ah, ok | 08:35 |
| poningru | but there is a general model number Presario 2100 | 08:35 |
| poningru | dont know why there are two | 08:35 |
| Burgundavia | more specific is better | 08:35 |
| poningru | I am pretty sure the US is the keyboard layout | 08:35 |
| Burgundavia | hardware might change | 08:35 |
| poningru | but dont know about the 40 part | 08:35 |
| poningru | hmm true | 08:36 |
| Burgundavia | the model number you want to report is the one that one would see int eh store | 08:36 |
| Burgundavia | which is often different from the one on the bottom of the machine | 08:36 |

| mdke | hey you moved my laptop page | 10:06 |
| Burgundavia | yes I did | 10:06 |
| Burgundavia | read your mail | 10:06 |
| mdke | i see it | 10:07 |
| mdke | but why? | 10:07 |
| mdke | not everyone will do their laptop reports on the wiki | 10:08 |
| robitaille | but the ones that do it will be easy to find | 10:08 |
| Burgundavia | mdke, if they don't, I am certain they will be hunted down | 10:08 |
| mdke | Burgundavia, the instructions simply say "in a format which can be submitted" | 10:08 |
| Burgundavia | yes | 10:09 |
| mdke | oh well | 10:09 |
| mdke | whatever | 10:09 |
| mdke | if you want to do the maintenance work :p | 10:09 |
| Burgundavia | it is still your page | 10:09 |
| Burgundavia | this makes it easy for the community to see what we are doing, the other side of laptop testing | 10:10 |
| Burgundavia | because we can point people there when they ask how laptops work with Ubuntu | 10:11 |
| mdke | a link on LaptopTestingTeam would have achieved that | 10:11 |
| mdke | but i don't have a problem | 10:11 |
| mdke | so now do I have to do all the tests on one page? for hoary, and all the breezy releases? | 10:11 |
| mdke | i planned to do them on separate pages | 10:11 |
| Burgundavia | you can do as you like | 10:12 |
| Burgundavia | I think one page is better for readability | 10:12 |
| === robitaille just can't wait to actually have his laptop to start testing it.... | ||
| mdke | i'm definitely gonna make several pages, one page with like 10 reports on will be insane | 10:13 |
| Burgundavia | I was going to have 2 reports | 10:14 |
| Burgundavia | a hoary one and a running breezy one | 10:14 |
| mdke | ah | 10:14 |
| Burgundavia | both on the same page | 10:14 |
| Burgundavia | no need to report every colony release | 10:14 |
| mdke | we have to test each release (colony 2, any more colonies, preview releases, final release) and then the same for breezy +1 | 10:14 |
| Burgundavia | unless there is a regression | 10:14 |
| mdke | Burgundavia, the contract you signed says that you do | 10:15 |
| robitaille | I thought you were supposed to report every colony release... | 10:15 |
| Burgundavia | yes, but not once the next colony is out | 10:15 |
| mdke | This should be repeated for each development snapshot released, the preview release, the release candidate and the final release. | 10:15 |
| mdke | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingConditions | 10:15 |
| Burgundavia | the developers only care about the latest development release | 10:15 |
| Burgundavia | so just mention that this is against Colony XYZ in the title of the breezy section | 10:16 |
| Burgundavia | and update as needed for each release | 10:16 |
| robitaille | but you have to issue a new report for each colony; might as well keep it around for documentation sake | 10:16 |
| mdke | dude | 10:16 |
| mdke | you have to follow the instructions given | 10:16 |
| Burgundavia | I intend to test for every release | 10:16 |
| Burgundavia | I just don't care about whether or not Colony 2 works when colony 3 is out | 10:17 |
| Burgundavia | nor do the developers | 10:17 |
| mdke | well you need to make the report in a format to be submitted | 10:17 |
| Burgundavia | it is, right there! | 10:17 |
| Burgundavia | you want to see what the latest state of my laptop, yyou can see it | 10:17 |
| Burgundavia | no need to figure out which is newer | 10:18 |
| Burgundavia | after the breezy is stable, that is different | 10:18 |
| Burgundavia | then I need 3 reports | 10:18 |
| mdke | up to you | 10:18 |
| mdke | i will be following the instructions | 10:18 |
| mdke | since it doesn't hurt me to do so | 10:18 |
| Burgundavia | honestly, telling them wireless works in 3 and was broken in 2 can be mentioned inline | 10:19 |
| Burgundavia | doesn't need another whole report | 10:19 |
| mdke | i understand your view, but that is not what you were asked | 10:19 |
| Burgundavia | if you read it, it merely asks you that you install the release within 2 days of a release | 10:21 |
| Burgundavia | and that you submit the data | 10:21 |
| Burgundavia | it doesn't say you need to keep old and useless data around | 10:22 |
| mdke | ok well as long as you submit it | 10:22 |
| Burgundavia | I intend to | 10:22 |
| Burgundavia | that is point of collecting it all on one page | 10:22 |
| mdke | awesome I've had emails from 2 people with help on the thinkpad | 10:22 |
| Burgundavia | easy to see where people are at | 10:22 |
| Burgundavia | the be honest, the wiki is probaby the best form of reporting for the developers, provided it is backed up with bug reports | 10:23 |
| Burgundavia | mdke, robitaille how did you see yourself submitting reports? paper forms? | 10:25 |
| Burgundavia | I would love to standardize the pages so they all look the same | 10:25 |
| robitaille | I thought it was going to be by emails; with a copy on the wiki for the sake of everyone else. | 10:26 |
| mdke | wiki pages here | 10:26 |
| Burgundavia | to whom? | 10:26 |
| robitaille | not sure. | 10:26 |
| Burgundavia | the people that are going to be fixing it read the bugzilla | 10:27 |
| mdke | to claire, mjg and mdk | 10:27 |
| Burgundavia | and maybe the wiki | 10:27 |
| mdke | mdk/mdz | 10:27 |
| Burgundavia | the developers really only care about what is broken | 10:27 |
| Burgundavia | what works in for marketing | 10:27 |
| Burgundavia | hence the standard pages | 10:27 |
| robitaille | maybe this should be made clear. I don't think everyone uses the wiki. /sh reported on his laptop on his blog; and I can't rmeember seeing him editing a wiki page | 10:27 |
| Burgundavia | I don't consider it unreasonable to make people edit a wiki page | 10:28 |
| robitaille | maybe as an email to ubuntu-devel? or that would be too much spam-like? | 10:29 |
| Burgundavia | ugh | 10:29 |
| Burgundavia | again, the developers don't need this in their face unless it is broken | 10:29 |
| mdke | you can link to blogs on the wiki | 10:29 |
| mdke | no problem | 10:29 |
| Burgundavia | ugh | 10:29 |
| Burgundavia | part of this is also marketing | 10:29 |
| Burgundavia | we need to remember that | 10:29 |
| robitaille | anyway I'm going to bed; I finally found a bug to close in Malone. THat's my cue to log off :) | 10:30 |
| mdke | nice | 10:30 |
| Burgundavia | buy this laptop because ubuntu works and we can prove it! | 10:30 |
| Burgundavia | mdke, I had an idea for your page. If you want to keep the old reports around, keep you main page as the latest breezy and hoary | 10:32 |
| Burgundavia | mdke, and just copy your old reports to archives | 10:32 |
| mdke | i'll see how it pans out | 10:32 |
| Burgundavia | yes | 10:32 |
| mdke | i will put some hardware info on the main page i think | 10:32 |
| mdke | then do the reports on subpages | 10:32 |

| martinald | hi guys | 08:20 |
| martinald | anyone still here? | 08:20 |
| mgalvin | hey martinald | 08:22 |
| martinald | hey! | 08:25 |
| mgalvin | how it going | 08:26 |
| martinald | not bad. | 08:26 |
| martinald | yourself? | 08:26 |
| mgalvin | pretty good | 08:27 |
| mgalvin | have you had a chance to look at the doc team wiki yet? | 08:27 |
| martinald | i'm looking at it now | 08:31 |
| mgalvin | k, cool | 08:32 |
| martinald | so what's needing the most attention | 08:36 |
| mgalvin | well, the faqguide, rob^ and i work on and it almost done, but feel free to work on anything you would like to | 08:38 |
| mgalvin | i jump around abit and work on many different things | 08:38 |
| mgalvin | um, the about-ubunt and release notes still need some more updating... | 08:38 |
| mgalvin | additionally if you have marking type stuff you want to do, make a wiki page for it called something like MarketingSpec and start putting your ideas there | 08:39 |
| mgalvin | so we can all see it and start helping you with it | 08:39 |
| martinald | right, will do. | 08:39 |
| mgalvin | i have to run to the store... will be back in a little bit, see you later | 08:41 |
| martinald | ok | 08:42 |
