[12:30] <mpt> BurgLaptop: around?
[12:34] <BurgLaptop> mpt, yes
[12:39] <BurgLaptop> mpt, you there? my connect is flaky here
[12:42] <mpt> BurgLaptop: yo
[12:42] <mpt> BurgLaptop: Want any more help with the Quick Tour?
[12:47] <BurgLaptop> mpt, sure
[12:47] <BurgLaptop> busy working through some stuff right now
[12:47] <BurgLaptop> but I don't have commit access here, unfortunately
[12:49] <mpt> heh
[12:51] <mpt> It would be good to know how many language packs 5.10 is going to have
[12:53] <BurgLaptop> a bunch
[12:53] <BurgLaptop> Martin Pitt (pitti) would be the person to ask
Ubuntu 5.10</h1>
[12:56] <mpt> It&#8217;s been a whole six months since the last version of Ubuntu. But now we&#8217;re back, and better than ever.

[12:56] <mpt> Ubuntu is a free, complete Linux-based operating system for your Intel, AMD, or Macintosh computer. If you want a Linux system that Just Works, or if you&#8217;re tired of Windows and feeling adventurous, give Ubuntu a spin. We think you&#8217;ll be impressed.
[12:56] <BurgLaptop> where is that from?
[12:57] <mpt> How about that for an introduction?
[12:57] <BurgLaptop> ya
[12:57] <BurgLaptop> I like it
[12:57] <BurgLaptop> would be nice to work in the security support, etc.
[12:57] <mpt> yes, that would probably belong in the very last section
[12:58] <BurgLaptop> in the intro or the end of the doc?
[12:58] <BurgLaptop> mpt, we shall have to bang our heads together at UBZ about the quicktour for 6.04
What&#8217;s the catch?</h2>
[12:59] <mpt> There is none. Ubuntu will always be free of charge. Ubuntu releases are scheduled every six months, and if you don&#8217;t want to upgrade, free security updates are provided for 18 months.
[12:59] <mpt> The end of the doc
[01:00] <BurgLaptop> hmm, sounds good
[01:00] <BurgLaptop> can you email me a patch?
[01:00] <BurgLaptop> I will apply to my local versin
[01:03] <mpt> hmmm, I could do that
[01:03] <BurgLaptop> geez evince is fast
[01:03] <mpt> Have you measured it against Acrobat Reader?
[01:03] <BurgLaptop> not on the same mahcine
[01:04] <BurgLaptop> going to do that now
[01:04] <BurgLaptop> 2 secs to load http://www.can-tf1.org/Documents/Training2005.pdf
[01:04] <BurgLaptop> from the click in epip
[01:06] <BurgLaptop> grr, this bloody wireless here stalls on big downloads
[01:08] <BurgLaptop> even a forty page doc took 2 secs
[01:12] <mpt> Have you noticed that it's not actually true that Ubuntu "includes the very best in ... accessibility infrastructure"?
[01:12] <mpt> The accessibility stuff isn't installed by default
[01:12] <BurgLaptop> why do you say that?
[01:13] <mpt> "The 'gok' package must be installed in order to get on-screen keyboard support, and the 'gnopernicus' package must be installed for screenreading and magnifying capabilities."
[01:13] <BurgLaptop> yes
[01:13] <BurgLaptop> it is avaible
[01:14] <mpt> yeah, available != included
[01:14] <mpt> I suppose you could make an argument that installed by default !== included
[01:14] <BurgLaptop> ya
[01:14] <BurgLaptop> it is easily available
[01:15] <mpt> Synaptic isn't easy
[01:15] <BurgLaptop> there is a bug open for making that easy, ala the instlalation of nfs/samba support
[01:15] <BurgLaptop> just a sec
[01:15] <mpt> Anyway, this serves as a useful demonstration of how giving software packages stupid names is all fun and games until someone loses an eye (or two eyes, or fine motor control, or whatever)
[01:17] <BurgLaptop> http://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=6386
[01:23] <mpt> That "Enable assistive technologies" checkbox shouldn't even exist
[01:23] <mpt> Megasyllabic geekery
[01:23] <mpt> but yeah, automatic installation would be nice
[01:25] <BurgLaptop> create a bof for ubz
[01:26] <mpt> HumaneAccessibilityConfiguration
[01:27] <BurgLaptop> already exists?
[01:28] <BurgLaptop> ugh, I hate acrobat reader
[01:28] <BurgLaptop> it is ugly
[01:28] <mpt> No, I was just proposing a name for it
[01:28] <BurgLaptop> sounds good to me
[01:29] <mpt> Accessibility prefs are perhaps the worst example of reason-based prefs conflicting with subject-based prefs
[01:29] <BurgLaptop> I will try the speed tests with acroread at home, when I have a constant and good net connection
[01:31] <mpt> hmm, I could even do it myself
[01:42] <BurgLaptop> mpt, got a patch for me?
[01:46] <mpt> getting there
[01:47] <mpt> Meh, Synaptic won't let me add Multiverse
[01:47] <mpt> I check the checkbox and click "OK" and nothing happens
[01:48] <BurgLaptop> that dialog needs some work in dapper
[01:48] <BurgLaptop> I opened a bug for it, but there is some future-proofing that needs to be done
[02:02] <mpt> ohhhh, now I see
[02:03] <mpt> clicking "Add" opens a dialog entitled "Edit Repository..."
[02:03] <mpt> that's got to be a bug, surely
[02:03] <mpt> argh, there are two "Edit Repository..." dialogs
[02:03] <mpt> and neither of them are for adding a repository
[02:21] <BurgLaptop> mpt, welcome to synaptic
[02:25] <BurgLaptop> mpt, the future proofing that needs to be done is the adding of custom repos when the lp autobuilding stuff starts
[02:27] <rob^> hi BurgLaptop 
[02:28] <rob^> no doubt you have heard about the xml thing
[02:28] <mpt> Still, I see numerous reviews of various distros claiming that Synaptic is really easy to use
[02:29] <mpt> So it must be a big improvement on what came before :-)
[02:29] <rob^> what are we talking about?
[02:29] <rob^> mpt, what dpackage?
[02:30] <rob^> the terminal based one
[02:33] <mpt> I don't know
[02:44] <mpt> hi carthik
[02:45] <carthik> Hi, the https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBelowZero page says "Monday 30 October" ... 30th happens to be a sunday .. Would've edited it if I had know which "Monday" or "30th" was intended :)
[02:45] <carthik> hi mpt, how's life? Dont blog much lately?
[02:45] <mpt> yeah
[02:45] <mpt> Jorn Barger said something like
[02:45] <mpt> the more interesting your life is, the less time you have to spend on a Weblog
[02:45] <mpt> :-)
[02:46] <carthik> mpt, true, true :) - but that is also true of mechanical lives, where nothing new happens
[02:46] <mpt> I've been pretty crazily busy the past few months
[02:46] <carthik> Was afraid that your life might have taken on a mechanical tone -- glad to know that's not the case :)
[02:47] <mpt> a mechanical tone?
[02:47] <mpt> oh, as in utter routine
[02:47] <carthik> mpt: I understand that -- I have been so too.. trying to get out of the university (with the promised degree) 
[02:47] <mpt> ah, I've been there
[02:47] <mpt> In my last year at uni, one of my tutors said "You still here??"
[02:47] <carthik> all but stopped working on/for WordPress :|
[02:49] <carthik> I might be in Montreal around the time of UBZ, and so was checking the page when I found the error... Please tend to it, if it's not too much of an ask.
[02:49] <carthik> I have to get going.. later mpt, folks!!
[03:05] <mpt> "suspend your laptop to save power"???
[03:17] <corey> mpt, even with free software magazine, which is quite heavy on the images, evince still takes 2 secs to start and renders almost instantly
[03:18] <mpt> and acrobat?
[03:19] <corey> not been able to pull it down, due to flaky internet
[03:23] <corey> mpt, but I can tell you this, acrobat with IE 6 on my machine is much much slower, and it freezes the browser while loading the program
[03:31] <mpt> aha
[03:32] <HrdwrBoB> that's because acrobat reader is a giant bloated piece of crap
[03:33] <mpt> yes, well, other-platform comparisons aren't very relevant to Ubuntu
[03:36] <corey> I went for very graphic heavy pdfs
[03:36] <corey> I need a good legal one, that will be 200+ pages
[03:36] <corey> groklaw might have one\
[03:39] <mpt> 46-page design magazine in about 4.8 seconds
[03:40] <mpt> Acrobat Reader: about 2.1 seconds
[03:43] <mpt> ah well, Evince should be faster by 1.0 :-)
[03:44] <mpt> hey, hang on a minute
[03:45] <mpt> In Evince all the text is gibberish :-)
[03:45] <mpt> er, :-(
[03:58] <corey> mpt, which doc?
[03:59] <mpt> The "free trial issue" at http://indesignmag.com/idm/
[03:59] <corey> let me pull it down and file a bug if necessary
[04:00] <mpt> I'm just about to do that
[04:00] <corey> poppler in the freedesktop bugzilla
[04:01] <mpt> *All* rendering bugs are poppler bugs?
[04:01] <corey> yes
[04:01] <mpt> right-o
[04:01] <corey> same with epiphany and gecko
[04:01] <mpt> My flatmate fixed a poppler crasher yesterday :-)
[04:01] <corey> who is your flatmate?
[04:02] <mpt> Johan Dahlin
[04:02] <mpt> bug 4402
[04:02] <ajmitch> mpt: when are you back in NZ?
[04:03] <mpt> ajmitch: December 21st, probably
[04:03] <ajmitch> great, planning to be at LCA?
[04:03] <corey> mpt, where are you living currently?
[04:04] <mpt> ajmitch: yep
[04:04] <mpt> corey: So Carlos
[04:04] <corey> mpt, Brazil?
[04:04] <corey> mpt, did you move there to be closer to the LP team?
[04:05] <mpt> yes, Brazil
[04:05] <mpt> Even before it was decided that the Launchpad sprint would be here, kiko had invited me to stay for a few months
[04:06] <mpt> so I just stayed on after the sprint
[04:06] <corey> cool
[04:40] <Burglaptop> you know, our topic is kind of useless
[04:40] <mpt> you noticed :-)
[04:40] <Madpilot> the channel's topic?
[04:40] <mpt> "This channel tries to make its way to the sea"
[04:45] <Burglaptop> ok, external mouse breaks horrible
[04:46] <ajmitch> how horrible?
[04:46] <Burglaptop> zoomign around the screen for while not moving horrible
[04:47] <Burglaptop> is there any way in xchat to open 2 different servers by default, with 2 different channel listings for each server?
[04:47] <Burglaptop> ie, both freenode and gimp.net
[04:48] <ajmitch> sure
[04:48] <ajmitch> I used to have 5 servers with their own channel lists
[04:49] <Burglaptop> oh wait, laser mouse + shiny surface equals mouse go crazy
[04:49] <Burglaptop> ajmitch, how?
[04:49] <ajmitch> have each server set to autoconnect, and for each, have a channel list 
[04:50] <ajmitch> eg #ubuntu-motu,#ubuntu-devel,#ubuntu-laptop,#ubuntu-mono
[04:50] <ajmitch> I think you can't have spaces separating
[04:50] <Burglaptop> ah, now I see
[04:50] <mpt> Burglaptop: ok, one thing that's always confused me
[04:50] <Burglaptop> mpt, yes?
[04:50] <mpt> Burglaptop: When I make a diff, should I give the original file first, or the modified one?
[04:50] <mpt> to the diff command
[04:51] <ajmitch> original, then modified
[04:51] <Burglaptop> mpt, and do a diff -u
[04:52] <mpt> corey.burger @ gmail?
[04:53] <Burglaptop> yes
[04:56] <Burglaptop> there, an actual useful topic
[04:56] <mpt> Burglaptop: sent
[04:57] <Burglaptop> mpt, ok
[04:57] <Burglaptop> mpt, don't worry, the screenshots will be zoomed in on the useful feature
[04:58] <Burglaptop> mpt, that diff is a bunch of gibberish
[04:58] <mpt> ?
[05:03] <Burglaptop> grr
[05:03] <Burglaptop> ok, something froze my machine
[05:04] <Burglaptop> mpt, you diff was gibberish
[05:04] <Burglaptop> mpt, can you just send my your whole quicktour?
[05:04] <mpt> ok
[05:11] <mpt> Burglaptop: sent
[05:12] <Burglaptop> mpt, thanks
[05:12] <Burglaptop> mpt, I should be able to commit it tomorrow evening (24 hours from now)
[05:12] <Burglaptop> bloody work
[05:13] <Burglaptop> mpt, did you edit this on a mac?
[05:17] <mpt> no, gedit
[05:18] <Burglaptop> hmm
[05:18] <Burglaptop> it wants to replace the whole bloody doc
[05:20] <ajmitch> tab/space?
[05:20] <Burglaptop> I can fix it
[05:20] <ajmitch> if so, you can try diff -w (ignore whitespace)
[05:21] <Burglaptop> ajmitch, that did it
[07:33] (Burglaptop/#ubuntu-doc) ok, epiphany bookmarks are major cool
[07:34] (robitaille/#ubuntu-doc) how?
[07:34] <Burglaptop> you add them and you can type on the address bar to search through them
[07:35] <Burglaptop> full typeahead
[07:37] <robitaille> I keep thinking I should try epiphany; people who like it seems to really like it as their browser
[07:37] <Burglaptop> I decided to use it on my laptop full time
[07:37] <Burglaptop> there are a lot of things that drive me nuts, but then so does FF
[07:38] <Burglaptop> they are just different from FF
[07:38] <Burglaptop> but the guys in #epiphany on gimp.net are extremely helpful people
[07:39] <Burglaptop> they are also working on adding a feature where if you click on an rss feed, it can add it to your feedreader (liferea and one other supported right now, blam is coming)
[07:46] <robitaille> is the default page for epiphany a new one or an old one? file:///usr/share/ubuntu-artwork/home/index.html
[07:46] <robitaille> the fonts are really small on my laptop for that page
[07:46] <rob^> hi
[07:51] <Madpilot> OK, that was strange - the Rolling Stones album I'm playing right now - on the computer - has a drum sound that *exactly* like one of Ubuntu's notification noises...
[07:51] <Madpilot> I was wondering what was going horribly wrong on this machine, for a minute!
[07:51] <rob^> heh
[07:52] <rob^> everyone have a good sfd?
[07:53] <Burglaptop> well, the SFD wiki is being hammered right now
[07:54] <rob^> ah
[07:54] <rob^> we all forgot to bring cameras
[07:56] <Madpilot> Burglaptop: anything more need to be done on the QT tonight?
[07:56] <Burglaptop> Madpilot, not currently
[07:56] <Madpilot> OK
[08:00] <Burglaptop> rob^, have you seen the latest menu changes? Does the quickguide need an fixes?
[08:00] <rob^> there was only a couple I think
[08:00] <Burglaptop> rob^, serpentine, terminal, root terminal and file browser
[08:00] <Burglaptop> the only one that I know we refer to is terminal
[08:00] <rob^> add/remove applications too
[08:01] <Burglaptop> ya
[08:01] <rob^> hey, is the quickguide going to still ship with ubuntu?
[08:01] <Burglaptop> quicktour? yes
[08:02] <rob^> yeah
[08:02] <rob^> did you get the information from the meeting the other day?
[08:02] <Burglaptop> about xml?
[08:02] <rob^> yes
[08:02] <Burglaptop> we are not docbook as source anyway
[08:02] <rob^> I know
[08:03] <rob^> but they are bitching about not being able to translate html
[08:03] <Burglaptop> if it cannot be translated through rosetta, that hurts, but I am not going to shift to docbook at this point
[08:04] <rob^> yes, thats the problem, I had to fix up all the xml in the FAQ Guide to view properly in Yelp
[08:05] <rob^> and you may find that they won't want to ship the quicktour because it is in html
[08:05] <rob^> it was suggested to redo it in xml
[08:06] <Burglaptop> the quicktour is a marketing doc, not a help doc
[08:06] <Burglaptop> the difference is subtle, and those on top really love it (sabdfl, jdub)
[08:06] <rob^> I know
[08:06] <rob^> yes, however jdub and others were in here telling us that html is no good
[08:07] <Burglaptop> for help docs yes
[08:07] <rob^> for translation
[08:07] <Burglaptop> the quicktour is not primarily meant to be read on an Ubuntu machine
[08:07] <rob^> yeah
[08:07] <rob^> so how will it be distributed? via the web site?
[08:08] <Burglaptop> I am working on the html to pdf issues
[08:08] <Burglaptop> the website is another place
[08:08] <Burglaptop> anywhere and everywhere we need to talk about Ubuntu is my goal
[08:09] <rob^> ok
[08:10] <rob^> it could probably replace some of the stuff in the wiki too, such as UbuntuHowCome etc
[08:22] <Burglaptop> ya
[08:23] <Madpilot> we were talking about a drastic re-write of UbuntuHowCome at one point, weren't we?
[08:24] <rob^> well, lost intrest, and the quickguide will be better than it
[08:24] <Burglaptop> that started
[08:24] <rob^> + the faq guide takes up too much of my time
[08:24] <Burglaptop> maybe just replace the text with links to other places
[08:24] <jdub> how is the tour going?
[08:26] <ajmitch> hello jdub 
[08:26] <rob^> jbailey, you around?
[08:27] <Burglaptop> jdub, pretty good. mpt and I have been hacking tonight, but I don't have commit access to the svn repo
[08:27] <Burglaptop> here
[08:28] <jdub> heh
[08:29] <Burglaptop> jdub, I will be to commit what I have done tomorrow night
[08:30] <rob^> Burglaptop, if you email it to me I can do it for you
[08:30] <Burglaptop> rob^, can do
[08:30] <rob^> rstoffers@gmail.com
[08:30] <Burglaptop> rob^, here it is
[08:31] <rob^> ok hang on
[08:31] <jdub> rob^: how was your sfd?
[08:32] <rob^> jdub, good, one thing I did notice that after I gave a presentation on ubuntu everyone wanted windows blown away instead of dual-booting
[08:32] <rob^> jdub, yourself?
[08:34] <rob^> Burglaptop, where does the quickguide live?
[08:34] <jdub> heh
[08:34] <jdub> fun, handed out hundreds of CDs
[08:34] <Burglaptop> jdub, where were you?
[08:34] <jdub> did a talk on ubuntu at the installfest
[08:34] <jdub> sydney, as always
[08:34] <rob^> the new ubuntu cd covers look nice
[08:35] <rob^> we gave away about 50, which is good for townsville
[08:35] <jdub> slightly smaller market ;)
[08:35] <rob^> yep
[08:36] <jdub> http://www.slug.org.au/gallery/sfd05
[08:37] <rob^> heh, we all forgot cameras :(
[08:37] <ajmitch> that's a shame
[08:37] <rob^> hehe yep
[08:38] <rob^> jdub, did you all take to the streets?
[08:40] <jdub> rob^: we had four street teams, and a bunch at the uni for the installfest
[08:40] <rob^> ah, we only had about 6 members, all flat out doing installs or presentations
[08:41] <rob^> but then, there is only like 10 regulars
[08:42] <rob^> is there like a "minumum requirements" page on the wiki?
[08:42] <Burglaptop> my local LUG is more interested in drinking beer than promoting linux
[08:42] <Burglaptop> is quite sad
[08:43] <rob^> I slept like a baby afterwards
[08:43] <ajmitch> the local LUG has sort of dried up here
[08:43] <Madpilot> rob^: I don't think so; I had a good look thru CatHardware last night & day before as well. A "min hardware" page is a good idea...
[08:43] <Burglaptop> ajmitch, it really only needs one person to kick start it
[08:44] <rob^> it was just a question bought up a fair few times during the day
[08:44] <rob^> I ended up having to use vector on a 10 year old laptop :)
[08:44] <Burglaptop> anything less than 256 is going to hurt
[08:45] <Burglaptop> though I have used Gnome 2.8 on 64
[08:45] <Burglaptop> anything less than 600mhz is also going to hurt, but down as far as 400 is probable
[08:46] <rob^> yeah, thats kind of what I thought
[08:46] <highvoltage> whohoo! sfd discussions.
[08:46] <Burglaptop> jdub, were most of your installs ubuntu?
[08:46] <highvoltage> here's some of our cape town photos: http://www.go-opensource.org/gallery/SFD2005_CapeTown
[08:46] <Burglaptop> highvoltage, we are really ontopic in here
[08:47] <highvoltage> Burglaptop: :)
[08:47] <jdub> Burglaptop: i can't remember anything else ;)
[08:47] <rob^> heh we only got one green sfd tshirt between us all
[08:47] <highvoltage> we didn't have any official sfd t-shirts, but at least we had go-open source t-shirts.
[08:48] <rob^> the ballons were decent though, my 3 yr old son loved em'
[08:48] <highvoltage> i think i gave out more than a thousand copies of the opencd. felt very tired by 2pm :)
[08:48] <rob^> I was hacking the faq until 3 the night before, then up at 7 
[08:49] <Burglaptop> rob^, ouch, the bloody xml issue?
[08:49] <highvoltage> geez
[08:49] <rob^> I was a linux-installing zombie on the day
[08:49] <rob^> Burglaptop, yep
[08:49] <ajmitch> Burglaptop: there are people around for the LUG, but they're busy planning LCA :)
[08:50] <jdub> highvoltage: you in any of the photos?
[08:50] <rob^> mmm flesh...
[08:51] <Madpilot> isn't it supposed to be "Mmmmm brainssss..."? ;)
[08:51] <highvoltage> jdub: yep: http://www.go-opensource.org/gallery/SFD2005_CapeTown/IMG_0500_copy
[08:51] <rob^> yes, but someone mentioned flesh, and that is almost as tasty!
[08:51] <highvoltage> some would say the way i stare at that openCD is unhealthy :P
[08:52] <highvoltage> i took lots more photo's, but my camera's cable is at work, i'll upload them on monday.
[08:52] <jdub> mmm, watch out for the lasers
[08:52] <jdub> http://www.go-opensource.org/gallery/SFD2005_CapeTown/IMG_0669_2_copy
[08:52] <jdub> ha ha
[08:52] <rob^> hey Burglaptop where does the quicktour live in svn?
[08:53] <highvoltage> heh. nice photo.
[08:53] <Burglaptop> rob^, gnome/quicktour
[08:54] <Burglaptop> jdub, what is the latest news on new theme/icons/etc. for Breezy?
[08:56] <Burglaptop> Madpilot, given that you, robitaille and myself constitute the highest concentration of Ubuntu members in Canada, it is sad we did nothing for SFD
[08:56] <highvoltage> :(
[08:56] <robitaille> next year!
[08:56] <highvoltage> :)
[08:57] <Burglaptop> indeed, if I am still in Victoria
[08:57] <highvoltage> http://www.go-opensource.org/gallery/SFD2005_CapeTown/IMG_0589_copy
[08:57] <Madpilot> Burglaptop: next year!
[08:57] <highvoltage> the guy with the red t-shirt in that photo is amazing.
[08:57] <highvoltage> he volunteered for the tuxlab project for more than a year.
[08:58] <highvoltage> jeremy would have still volunteered if we didn't hire him. a real free software proponent.
[08:58] <robitaille> we just need to convince Jerome to move to Victoria, then we'll have our own loco team
[09:00] <highvoltage> i think a problem that many of us have, is we want to do everything, and do it now.
[09:00] <rob^> hmm forgot the log message on commit
[09:00] <Madpilot> robitaille: should we set up a LoCoTeamVictoriaBC wiki page? ;)
[09:00] <rob^> Burglaptop, done
[09:00] <rob^> at 1775
[09:01] <highvoltage> and we end up being rushed and under pressure and end up doing a lot of thing half way. next year i'm going to be much more focussed that this year.
[09:01] <Burglaptop> rob^, just saw it thanks
[09:02] <Burglaptop> Madpilot, you can pluck the latest QT out of svn now. jdub, you as well
[09:03] <Madpilot> what the heck? the latest QT out of the SVN won't display properly here. odd text all over the place...
[09:04] <Burglaptop> hmm
[09:06] <Madpilot> "<<<<<<< .mine" - lots of these all over, and other cruft
[09:06] <Burglaptop> grr
[09:06] <Burglaptop> jdub, do you have commit access to our repo?
[09:07] <rob^> ?
[09:07] <rob^> mine is ok
[09:08] <Madpilot> never mind
[09:08] <Madpilot> I deleted and re-svn up'd, and got a clean copy. Not sure what went wrong at my end... sorry.
[09:09] <Burglaptop> jdub, nev mind
[09:15] <Madpilot> hmmm... all the entries below "Introducing OpenOffice.org 2" are going to have to have their images swapped to the other side
[09:17] <Madpilot> aside from that formatting detail, it looks good.
[09:18] <Burglaptop> ya, there are things to be fixed up
[09:34] <Burglaptop> jdub, minor bug with g-a-i, needs to have a seperator above it
[09:39] <jdub> Burglaptop: easy fix, just let seb know
[09:41] <rob^> bye all
[09:42] <Burglaptop> jdub, ok
[09:43] <Madpilot> check this out: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/
[09:44] <Madpilot> the long blank space URL... delete?
[09:52] <Burglaptop> Madpilot, that is a unicode url with some asian language on it
[09:52] <Madpilot> really? displays a lot of blank space in Hoary w/ Opera. Just a sec, will try FF
[09:53] <Madpilot> and I get a load of odd symbols in FF. does it work better in Breezy?
[09:54] <Burglaptop> yes
[09:54] <Burglaptop> even xchat gives me the unicode
[09:55] <Madpilot> cool
[09:57] <Burglaptop> does FF give you anything?
[09:58] <Madpilot> not really; I get a load of the little square 'default' font things
[09:58] <Madpilot> but I've removed a lot of the non-Western fonts from this install
[09:58] <Burglaptop> that would do it
[09:59] <Burglaptop> well, I need to crash, need to work tomorrow
[09:59] <Madpilot> although a lot of websites still display OK - the BBC, for example
[09:59] <Madpilot> good night
[10:19] <jsgotangco> hey all
[10:19] <Madpilot> hi jsgotangco

[03:12] <sivang> s/-rf/-rd/
[03:12] <sivang> :)
[03:41] <sivang> anyway, do you think #15017 deserves a release note ?
[03:41] <sivang> (for sake of the unsuspecting newb)
[03:44] <ajmitch> oh that one bit me with my laptop recently :)
[03:45] <sivang> well, we need to warn people out of it, at least , don't you think?
[03:45] <sivang> (I was able to restore my grub configuration easily, but what about the windows trialing user? :) )
[03:46] <ajmitch> yeah
[08:38] <segfault> is the doc stuff ready to be translated?
[09:16] <highvoltage> segfault: each time i see your name i think that irssi crashed or something!
