JessicaX^OC is basically "I love you, but i'm a prankster, wait i love you, err wait i dont ... ops had sex"12:35
JessicaX^Wash, rinse, repeat12:35
shagajust cliche drama12:35
JessicaX^one thing which is terrible, and a tragedy12:36
shagabut anyway, I thought you might like it as you don't like the 4400 ;912:36
JessicaX^is Period Drama12:36
JessicaX^>__>12:36
JessicaX^Most americana programs aren't any good12:36
JessicaX^Simpsons is getting stale now12:36
JessicaX^Futurama was hilarious, but now unfortunately, gone12:36
shagaI can't take anymore of those12:37
shagait was fun for the starters12:37
JessicaX^Naw, Futurama and Family guy are great12:37
JessicaX^Simpsons is stale and old12:37
shaganot enough trippy for me12:38
JessicaX^All other Fox stuff is stupid12:38
JessicaX^Eg , King of the Hill is the worst program i've ever seen12:38
JessicaX^X-Files just went absolutely WAYY off tangent12:38
shagaI haven't even seen it but I already feel relieved about it12:38
JessicaX^eg - a Monkey that can see into the future???? 12:38
JessicaX^What kind of monkey wrote it ._.12:39
=== JessicaX^ climbs off her pink horse
shagaI loved x-files, oz, twin peaks, outer limits and such when I was younger12:39
shaganot sure of it anymore as I haven't tried12:39
JessicaX^X-files was pretty good in the early years12:40
shagafirst season was just awesome12:40
JessicaX^There are some great programs12:40
JessicaX^But, not many at all in the last year12:40
JessicaX^Alias got boring12:41
JessicaX^Probing every possible storyline12:41
JessicaX^+ spying12:41
shagalast programs I've been watching(/ watched) are lost, babylon 5, the 4400.. next in the line will be bsg(battlestar galactica) and prison break12:42
shagaalias was boring to beging with12:42
JessicaX^:/12:43
shagathe main character and storyline just sucks12:43
JessicaX^I don't like Sci-Fi12:44
JessicaX^Star trek is justunwatchable12:44
shagaI didn't like before babylon 512:44
shagaI can't take star trek at all12:44
shaganot even for a minute12:44
JessicaX^Ugh12:45
JessicaX^I know12:45
JessicaX^I just hate how they use stupid words12:46
JessicaX^Then say12:46
JessicaX^"Move to Zalabnical gate"12:46
shagaand how they look ugh12:46
JessicaX^or something stupid12:46
JessicaX^Then they act as if you've said12:46
JessicaX^"Pass the salt"12:46
JessicaX^or something so down to earth12:46
shaga:D right on12:46
JessicaX^PLUs, the stuff they say makes no scientific sense12:47
JessicaX^eg12:47
JessicaX^they sau12:47
JessicaX^"then we reverse the polarity, then fire it"12:47
JessicaX^Then you think - But, in reality that would do NOTHING whatsoever12:47
shagaand even worse are fans of it12:47
JessicaX^Ugghh12:47
JessicaX^conventions12:47
JessicaX^Urrrrgh12:47
JessicaX^they had on in Singapore12:47

hyperactivecronda light desktop is needed for edubuntu, yes?01:44
shagaapt-get install blackbox01:44
shagahehe01:44
JessicaX^:O01:45
hyperactivecrondmy suggestion is probably xfce or xpde because xpde looks a lot like xp01:45
hyperactivecronda light desktop suggestion01:45
JessicaX^:/01:45
JessicaX^Ratbox01:45
JessicaX^:P01:45
JessicaX^Err - Ratpoison01:45
shagahttp://www.xpde.com/shots/startmenu.png01:46
hyperactivecrondi don't _like_ xp's ui but we're talking about people who don't know linux/unix at all, so mind as well make it look like xp...01:46
hyperactivecrondoh but i think it needs qt01:47
=== pitux [n=pitux@122-213-246-201.adsl.terra.cl] has joined #edubuntu
JessicaX^Heh01:49
hyperactivecronderr kylix01:49
JessicaX^Well, from experience, most places chose KDE01:49
JessicaX^I'm not helping another company with their linux in schools , and most whom i spoke to before preferred KDE01:50
shagaI would choose xfce over KDE in every case.. but not xpde, that's just evil :)01:50
JessicaX^It can be easily stripped down01:50
JessicaX^XFCE is quite good01:50
JessicaX^But hyperactivecrond - you'll have more chance of getting fellation from the pope01:51
hyperactivecrondJessicaX^, oh. I didn't know that you guys could use a whole kde stripped down for a 'lite' window manager01:51
JessicaX^They've settled on GNOME01:51
hyperactivecrondeven for the light?01:51
hyperactivecrondand JessicaX^ that was mean!01:51
hyperactivecrond:P01:51
JessicaX^:P01:51
JessicaX^Sorry, i was watching Brass eye Yesterday @_@01:52
shagaI use gnome mostly, but on slow computers I prefer blackbox01:52
=== JessicaX^ slaps her wrist
JessicaX^o.O01:52
JessicaX^I prefer KDE on slow comps - stripped down01:52
shagaI just can't stand it looks01:52
JessicaX^Same with gnome01:52
shaga:)01:52
JessicaX^It's so monochrome looking01:52
JessicaX^:/01:52
JessicaX^Makes you wonder about lavatories01:53
JessicaX^._.01:53
shagamonochrome is nice01:53
JessicaX^Hell no01:53
hyperactivecrondwhat about fvwm9501:53
JessicaX^Not for children it's not01:53
shagayou would love it if it would be pink I quess ;)01:53
JessicaX^Nope01:53
JessicaX^I'd love it if it were RIGHT01:53
shaga:p01:53
hyperactivecrondfvwm95 looks like win 9x and is light but a pain to configure i think, but dont quote me01:54
JessicaX^Hmm01:54
JessicaX^Still, as a rule01:54
JessicaX^Freenode users are a WHOLE DIFFERENT UNIVERSE away from schools01:54
hyperactivecrondtrue...01:55
JessicaX^So, what freenode shell lovers love, school users wont01:55
shagayeah01:55
JessicaX^I can ask 20 freenode users01:55
hyperactivecrondhttp://fvwm95.sourceforge.net/screenshot-full.gif01:55
JessicaX^And they could masturbate to the shell01:55
JessicaX^And never EVER use WMs01:55
JessicaX^Just because they like it, doesnt mean school kids will01:55
shaga:D shell just rocks01:55
hyperactivecrondnot for kids.01:55
JessicaX^In fact, when school kids see monochrome, they think the computer has crashed01:56
hyperactivecrondgive them a sudo and it's not _that_ hard to do a rm -rf *01:56
JessicaX^Or, think "WTF" i've seen color all day01:56
magnonogra: by the way, maybe x-chat should be configured to hit an #edubuntu-users or something like in xchat by default01:56
JessicaX^Why would students want to chat here?01:56
JessicaX^What are they going to chat about?01:57
magnon#edubuntu-*users*01:57
shagaabout the weather I quess01:57
JessicaX^So01:57
JessicaX^Students will be *USERS*01:57
JessicaX^If thats what's being planned 01:57
=== hyperactivecrond is a hs student
magnonuhuh?01:57
magnonand... so?01:57
JessicaX^Still, tbh01:57
JessicaX^I think that although the project is nice and all01:57
JessicaX^It's still a bit01:57
JessicaX^iono01:57
magnonfresh.01:57
JessicaX^no01:58
hyperactivecrondbut i dual boot linux and windows so you can't really take my opinion01:58
JessicaX^Ill-conceived on certain areas01:58
hyperactivecrondas in the whole thin client thing01:58
shagaJessicaX^: stop speaking, I cannot go to sleep because I'd miss your next line :D01:58
JessicaX^:P01:58
magnonI'd just thought it'd be interesting01:58
JessicaX^Hmm01:59
magnonYou'll have a place where somewhat savvy people could enter and ask about stuff their admin wouldn't know01:59
JessicaX^lol01:59
magnonand, it's a nice way to say hello to edubuntu using students on the other side of the world01:59
JessicaX^But tbh01:59
JessicaX^If kids on freenode01:59
JessicaX^BAAAAAAAAD idea01:59
JessicaX^eg01:59
JessicaX^"hi"01:59
JessicaX^"WTF U SCUK"01:59
JessicaX^"huh?"01:59
JessicaX^"U SUCK DIE AND ETC"01:59
JessicaX^Nice, friendly learning environment01:59
JessicaX^err.. not really01:59
magnonThat's internet reality for you02:00
magnonneeds to be learned02:00
hyperactivecrondhave the kiosk browsing extension installed on firefox02:00
JessicaX^That's really ill conceived then02:00
magnonthe ONLY important thing to protect the kids from isn't porn, bad language or anything02:00
magnonbut KDE02:00
magnon:)02:00
hyperactivecrondb/c you can then not screw with settings02:00
shagaopera is much better on kiosk-mode02:00
JessicaX^See02:00
shagaand I support it now that it's free02:00
JessicaX^Now, Have you actually ASKED some Schools?02:00
hyperactivecrondshaga, opera's free???02:00
shagayeah, went some days ago02:01
magnonhyperactivecrond: "without adverts"02:01
shagacould 5 days02:01
magnonJessicaX^: Yes.02:01
shagacould be02:01
=== magnon goes for a smoke
JessicaX^Did you TELL them02:01
JessicaX^or did you ASK02:01
hyperactivecrondmagnon, so there's no ads anymore?02:01
shagathey removed licensing fee and ads02:01
shagawww.opera.com/free some info about it02:01
hyperactivecrondawesome shaga 02:02
shagayou can still pay for the premium support tho02:02
hyperactivecrond(and they've got breezy debs!)02:02
shaga:)02:02
magnonJessicaX^: They got the choice with Gnome from us, or KDE with skolelinux or something else.02:02
shagaI suggested today about adding opera debs to main/universe02:02
magnonI _cannot_ commercially support something I don't know, and if you can't accept that, welcome to business02:02
JessicaX^Welcome to singularity02:03
ograJessicaX^, please stop the ranting we really have sometimes pupils here and wording like "suck and die" is simply against our code of conduct02:03
JessicaX^ogra02:03
JessicaX^People in freenode = Paranoid02:03
JessicaX^Other people than u = Freenode people02:03
JessicaX^Hence, reality02:03
hyperactivecrondremove xchat on edubuntu02:04
JessicaX^I'm not really ranting02:04
JessicaX^I just think really02:04
JessicaX^You've got a nice idea, but it's facing the wrong way02:04
ograJessicaX^, http://www.ubuntu.com/community/conduct02:04
JessicaX^I don't mean in regards to KDE/whatever02:04
JessicaX^I mean in regards to Education02:04
ograJessicaX^, i build a distribution like a bunch of british, southameriacan, spanish and k12ltsp people wanted it... thats all02:05
JessicaX^lol, were these freenode people?02:05
ogra(forgot southafrican and unesco)02:05
shaga(ogra :))02:05
JessicaX^If so, lordy loo02:06
ograJessicaX^, not all but some of them02:06
JessicaX^lol02:06
JessicaX^so 9/1002:06
JessicaX^:P02:06
JessicaX^well, anyways, i think you should take some heed of scanner's project02:07
JessicaX^Very nice thing he's got going02:07
ograpeople like jelkner come here with their pupils during classes 02:07
hyperactivecrondJessicaX^, are you a student? lol02:07
JessicaX^The laws on childhood development are your friend02:07
JessicaX^No, i'm a teacher ;)02:07
hyperactivecrondconsidering you're talking about me getting stimulation from the pope, which i'm rather offended by....02:07
ograJessicaX^, i'm not after doing any commercial stuff or anything, i just build a distro like the target audience requested it02:08
JessicaX^I'm not really :P02:08
JessicaX^Why are you offended?02:08
ogranothing more, nothing less02:08
JessicaX^I didnt' really mean getting fellatio from the pope o_O02:08
ograplease stop it02:08
JessicaX^I was only jesting02:09
hyperactivecrond...02:09
JessicaX^Well, i'm sorry if i offended you02:09
JessicaX^It was just a phrase, is all02:09
hyperactivecrondmoving on...02:09
JessicaX^hmm, catholic? 02:10
shagaseems that here's nothing more to see for today(3:09am), good night folks and stay cool02:10
magnonsleep well02:10
JessicaX^"more chance of"02:10
JessicaX^:)02:10
JessicaX^I love misreading things :/02:10
JessicaX^Meansi can argue about things without having all facts in view02:10
ograarguing is fine... 02:12
ograalso suggestions for our next release are fine...02:13
hyperactivecrondanaconda.02:14
hyperactivecrondit's been ported to componentized linux (debian based), and you can do kickstart install02:14
hyperactivecronds02:14
ograbut coming into the channel and telling me that the distro built like requested is simply wrong etc is just not very constructive02:14
JessicaX^Take heed02:15
magnonI also wondered what the "wrong direction" is02:15
ograhyperactivecrond, ubuntu has full kickstart support02:15
JessicaX^well, whatever i say, i know you'll have a counterbalance for it02:15
hyperactivecrondogra: oh.02:15
=== hyperactivecrond has been shot down
JessicaX^After all, you wouldn't willingly badmouth yourself :/02:15
ograJessicaX^, its not about balance and counterbalance...02:15
JessicaX^well, it is really02:16
magnonthe arguments will be heard if they are constructive02:16
JessicaX^Someone suggests, the other says their suggestions are wrong02:16
ograJessicaX^, not in here, no... 02:16
JessicaX^Eg - I suggest a feature02:16
JessicaX^Either02:16
JessicaX^a) "We already have it, everything is fine, your suggestion is wrong, we've surpassed your ideas" (Despite the fact it doesnt exist)02:16
JessicaX^b) are you saying our work is crap? Why, i should ban you!02:17
ograJessicaX^, its fine to suggest any feature but just saying all you do is wrong you suck and you won gain any marketshare is plainly nonsense... we build what our users requested... if you want it different feel fe to suggest something...02:17
ogras/fe/free02:17
ograbut note that we release in oct 13th ... there wont be changes to this release02:18
JessicaX^That's going to be the last i'll say on it - Like isay ; you wouldnt shoot yourself in the foot02:18
JessicaX^aka - Freenodeitis02:19
ograits not about freenode... 02:19
JessicaX^well, i related it to freenode like behaviour02:19
ograits about being respectful to each other...02:20
hyperactivecrond!code of conduct02:20
hyperactivecronderrgh no ubotu here :02:20
hyperactivecrond:\02:20
ogranope, luckily not :)02:20
magnonJessicaX^: Instead of telling us about Freenodeitis, or caring about what you have said earlier being rebutted, please, without concerning that you already mentioned it, give us something about edubuntu that you're unhappy with02:20
JessicaX^Like i said before02:21
ograyou said gnome was the wrong choice, the project is going in the wrong direction, what else ? 02:22
JessicaX^No i did not02:23
JessicaX^I merely said that KDE should be supported02:23
JessicaX^Not replaced02:23
ograit will02:23
JessicaX^Well, anyways02:24
JessicaX^You do what you do02:24
ograyes, but we will happily listen to suggestions... 02:25
hyperactivecrondhow about we get rid of xchat in edubuntu for these reason02:25
JessicaX^I can't be bothered02:25
JessicaX^Deaf ears are all around me, and i have a voice as shrill as the whimper of a dead man02:26
ograi asked for it at the summit, which endet up in teachers shouting nooo02:26
ograchat and bittorrent were very intensively requested...02:27
JessicaX^Now, i've lost hope in humanity02:27
JessicaX^Why do Students need bittorrent02:27
JessicaX^Give them an inch, and they will get a mile02:27
hyperactivecrondJessicaX^, proxy server can filter stuff02:27
ograask the teachers, it was their request and its a fine tool for saving badwith02:28
JessicaX^From Bittorrent?02:28
hyperactivecrondyes jess02:28
ograsure02:28
hyperactivecrondfor backups etc it's easy to apply i guess02:28
JessicaX^SAVING02:28
ograyup02:28
JessicaX^err.. Upload + Download02:28
hyperactivecronds/backups/update02:28
JessicaX^o___O02:28
hyperactivecrondJessicaX^, people can configure it.02:29
JessicaX^Wow02:29
JessicaX^Yes, but if you dont upload, your download will go slower02:29
JessicaX^And if no one uploads, no one downloads02:29
hyperactivecrondobv JessicaX^ 02:29
JessicaX^;)02:29
ograits about *using* the media... and learning to use it...02:29
ograbut anyway...02:30
JessicaX^The media DOES NOt use bittorrent02:30
JessicaX^In fact, it sort of curls up an vomits at the notion of it02:30
ogramedia == internet02:30
JessicaX^incorrect02:30
hyperactivecrondactivities that teens use internet for: myspace,xanga,music,AIM...02:30
JessicaX^The internet is a FORM of media02:30
hyperactivecrondJessicaX^, technicality02:30
JessicaX^Not really02:30
JessicaX^If the internet was media, what would TV be02:30
hyperactivecrondTV02:31
JessicaX^No02:31
JessicaX^Media02:31
ograanyway, most of the schools that will use this release wont even be able to afford a internet connection, let alone new computers02:31
JessicaX^Just as Radio is aural media02:31
JessicaX^TV is Visual Media02:31
JessicaX^And Internet is a mish mash of them both02:31
magnonogra: hey!02:31
magnonnot true :)02:31
hyperactivecrondtrue ogra very true02:31
magnonokay, maybe most ;)02:31
JessicaX^And - For the record less than 10% of the world uses the internet :P02:31
JessicaX^Oh, well, i heard it was around 14% last check02:32
JessicaX^the most far reaching being radio :)02:32
ograexactly ... but the teachers that use it wanted to have the tools to teacht the right usage of the internet (i dont say media this time even if i think its the better term to avoid another rant)02:33
JessicaX^Heh, i probably sound like i'm ranting02:33
ograyup ;)02:33
JessicaX^So, i'll just leave you to your own devices02:33
hyperactivecrondJessicaX^, they need input02:33
JessicaX^What you do, is of course, ultimately correcty02:33
JessicaX^So, someone else can give it02:33
ograthats not what i say02:33
JessicaX^Who cares02:34
ograi said we asked the people who want to use it what they want ...02:34
ograand built what they wanted...02:34
hyperactivecrondJessicaX^, she's in charge pretty much so lay off02:34
JessicaX^Meh, ban me or something02:34
ograwhy shoudl i02:35
JessicaX^I'm just going to idle or say nothing02:35
JessicaX^You = Correct02:35
ogranope, i didnt say that02:35
JessicaX^Me = Mute02:35
hyperactivecrondmust you?02:35
JessicaX^Just shut up, and accept victory02:35
magnonWow02:35

magnonlike, me and a friend was going home from town, and some, uhm, tough guys had to ask "are you two guys or girls?"02:58
hyperactivecrondnice02:58
=== ogra heard that too in his life :)
magnonI mean, I dunno, we both have beards, talk fairly deep and have no extending chest parts02:59
ograbut long hair... and from behind you could be a skinny girl ;)02:59
magnonI'm still 192cm03:00
ograa tall skinny girl *g*03:01
magnonand this was after talking to us, so I don't think they meant anything else than being somewhat "rude" :P03:01
=== hyperactivecrond likes metric although he's from (hint) some developed country

ograbut there is big interest from k12ltsp going on for edubuntu, so that might change... :)03:07
ograand we got dallas, detroit and los angeles LoCo teams already03:08
hyperactivecrondmaybe this belongs in #ubuntu-desktop but I think that the new synaptic interface by default is too easy.  The advanced is easier to find stuff in03:08
hyperactivecrondcol.03:08
hyperactivecrondwhat detroit but no cleveland????????03:08
hyperactivecrondlol03:08
hyperactivecrondwas there a meeting 2day?03:08

hyperactivecrondah.03:09
hyperactivecronddamn aim is effing annoying 2day03:10
hyperactivecrondit disconnected me than won't let me reconnect03:10
hyperactivecrondit'd be nice if something like at ease was available for edubuntu - the server03:11
hyperactivecrond- = minus03:11
ograyou mean a workstation version ? 03:12
hyperactivecrondyes03:12
ograits there ;)03:12
hyperactivecrondteachertool i don't think cuts it here with admin logins at the individual terminals03:12
ograeither use a normal breezy install and install edubuntu-desktop on top.... or03:12
hyperactivecrondcorrect me if i'm wrong03:13
ogrause the edubuntu CD and type "workstation" at the bootprompt03:13
hyperactivecrondi don't mean the whole shell thing like in http://toastytech.com/guis/atease4panelswfilemnu.png03:14
hyperactivecrondbut the different levels of access03:14
ogracurrently we focus totally on one classroom with ltsp, so teachertool is designed for that...03:14
hyperactivecrondah.03:14
hyperactivecrond*googles lstp to figure out what ltsp is*03:14
ograwe'll have more tools for dapper03:14
hyperactivecrondgot it03:14
ograsince we target one school in our second release03:15
hyperactivecrondso i can do an apt-get install edubuntu-desktop now and not break my breezy?03:15

ograhyperactivecrond, exactly03:15
hyperactivecrondso i can do an apt-get install edubuntu-desktop now and not break my breezy?03:16
ograf you uninstall edubuntu-desktop with aptitude, all edubuntu stuff gets removed clanly again03:16
hyperactivecrondjust making double-sure03:16
hyperactivecrondok kool03:16
hyperactivecrondi'll do it just for the experience...03:16
ograbut use aptitude for removal, eall other tools only remove the meta package and leave the apps there03:17
hyperactivecrondan.03:17
hyperactivecrondah.03:17
hyperactivecrondso basically all that I get is the gnome looks and educational soft?03:17
hyperactivecrondand libs03:18
hyperactivecrondsweet soon i'll have ubuntu-desktop kubuntu-desktop and edubuntu-desktop (a threesome)03:18
ograbut edubuntu changes the loo and feel of ubuntu-desktop... 03:20
ograheh...03:20
ograthe look too03:20
magnonif ubuntu is to give students freedom of the Internet, we should include an appropriate glossary03:20
magnonexplaining "teh", "-x0r" endings, leetspeak, how to understand it and why to avoid it03:21
magnonthen point to bash.org03:21
hyperactivecrondogra: so i'll have to logout and in to see effects>03:22

ogra:)03:28
hyperactivecrondbut that's my ho03:28
hyperactivecrondhumble opinion pervs ;)03:28
hyperactivecrondmaybe we should get rid of system --> administration for the user desktop03:30
ograit targets 6-16 year olds ...03:30
hyperactivecronda 14 or 13 year old prob would find it kinda annoying IMHO03:30
ograthere was a patch that should hide all sudo apps on non sudo user desktops03:30
ograyes, it would need mangas...03:30
hyperactivecrondmangas?03:31
ogradthe kids in the US dont go mad about mangas ...?03:32
hyperactivecrondsome ogra, some03:32
magnonjapanese cartoons?03:32
ograyup03:32
magnonwhat a way to kill class productivity ;)03:32
ograits exactly what 13-14 year olds on germany like currently...03:32
hyperactivecrondin the US kids aren't too dad about using winbloze or even (shudders at unusablilty) os 903:32
hyperactivecronds/dad/mad03:33
hyperactivecrondchange the font on desktop possibly03:33
ogradont you like the comic style ?03:34
hyperactivecrondno.03:34
hyperactivecronda 5 year old might but i' dont and i'm <2 random unicode characters> years old03:35
ograi must admit its not really usabilty compliant...03:35
hyperactivecrondok sry i'm off topic03:36
ograwhat would you take ? 03:36
ograno, not at all... we talk about edubuntu ... thats on topic ;)03:36
hyperactivecrondwhat do you mean what would you take?03:37
ograas desktop font 03:37
hyperactivecrondhmm...03:37
hyperactivecrondpothana2000 isn't too professional but not as kooky as the one that comes by deafault imho03:38
magnonyou could always separate age classes03:38
hyperactivecrondtrue.03:38
magnonthat should probably be done at a point anyway, or after "maturity"03:38
hyperactivecrondani looks cool but kookey03:38
hyperactivecrondnice including blender as part of metapackage, but add scribus03:39
hyperactivecrondhold up03:39
hyperactivecrondd'oh it's in the metapackage03:39
ograyup03:39
magnonthe scribus version in breezy is the suck :(03:39
ograboth are03:39
ograif i find some time before release i'll fix it...03:39
ograthe fonts are odd..03:40
hyperactivecrondyes03:40
ogra(in scribus)03:40
hyperactivecrondi know03:40
magnonnaw, the functionality in scribus 1.2 are completely lacking compared to 1.303:40
ograani is hard to read03:40
magnonit doesn't even have undo03:40
ograsadly its in main... i cant do updaes to main apps03:40
ogra(to late in the release cycle)03:41
magnonhmm... they can coexist though03:41
hyperactivecrondaargh how do you get rid of edubuntu-desktop again? i tried aptitude remove edubuntu-desktop and it only removed edubuntu-desktop03:41
ogranot in the archive :/03:41
magnonmaybe a scribus-ng or scribus-cvs in universe would be appropriate03:41
ograhyperactivecrond, hmm, thats odd... it should have dropped the dependencys too03:42
hyperactivecrondit's like IE on windows, it won't uninstalll! lol i know i'm prob doing it wrong03:42

magnonYagisan: I know that, but they generally discover when they do the accounting ;)01:29
Yagisanmagnon: yep - but that can be up to 3 months later depending on where you are01:30
magnonand then I'll be in trouble01:30
Yagisanmagnon: I should disclose - I try to teach businesses to be vigilant about these sorts of things01:30
Yagisanmagnon: but if they keep spamming ...01:30
magnonI'll just send an email and ask them not to offer me so much crap :)01:31
magnonThe agreement probably says "we can spam you as a customer, so just accept it"01:31
magnonin a more formal manner01:31
magnonThus, I have to live with it, but after norwegian law information about me is mine, so they will have to remove it if I want to - although that means I can't use their store01:32
Yagisanis it from a different from address to non-spam ?01:33

hyperactivecrondogra_, i've got another idea.11:28
hyperactivecrondcheck out schoolone at www.schoolone.com11:29
hyperactivecrondsomehow find a way to intergrate a backend in to edu11:29
hyperactivecrondbuntu11:29
hyperactivecrondschoolone is a web-based tool that allows students parents and teachers to communicate and chek grades and stuff11:29
ogra_thats what moodle does too11:32
ogra_but i'll check it during the app finding process for dapper11:32
hyperactivecrondcpp;11:35
hyperactivecrondcool*11:35
hyperactivecrondwe should put a bootsplash theme by default on edubuntu along with a graphical grub screen so student's don't have to sit and look at a bunch of kernel stuff11:42
mhzogra_:  A new OEM mode to simplify the process of preinstalling Ubuntu on computers for resale or redistribution11:45
mhzwhat does that mean??11:45
mhzhyperactivecrond: but it's fun to looka t kernel stuff11:45
hyperactivecrondmhz: not for students who can (possibly) screw stuff up11:46
mhzhehe11:46
mhzthe "force" is just one, wether we use it for good or bad11:46
ogra_hyperactivecrond, thats in since a while ... 11:47
ogra_hyperactivecrond, since today it should even have a edubuntu logo instead of a ubuntu logo11:47
ogra_as well as since today there should be a graphical boot for the ltsp thin clients11:48
ogra_mhz, thats for OEM mass deployment... not really intresting for normal users...11:49
mhzogra_: I know, but it is VERY interested for a Chilean project I am working on11:54
ogra_mhz, so you should talk with Kamion about it tomorrow (he's to bed already)11:55
mhzoh11:55
mhzjust a question... if I have a LTSP server, and iMac boxes, can they boot from the server???12:00
ogra_not yet12:00
ogra_we dont have multiarch support for ltsp yet... but its planned12:00
