| LaserJock | I have a quick question, is there going to be a packaging guide done? | 12:51 |
|---|---|---|
| Burgundavia | LaserJock, already exists | 12:51 |
| LaserJock | Burgundavia: where? | 12:51 |
| Burgundavia | just needs to packaged | 12:51 |
| Burgundavia | talk to the motus | 12:51 |
| Burgundavia | it is going to be moved into our repos soon | 12:51 |
| LaserJock | well, I work with the MOTUs | 12:52 |
| LaserJock | is it on the wiki? | 12:52 |
| Burgundavia | nope | 12:52 |
| Burgundavia | unfrgiven has made it | 12:52 |
| LaserJock | ok, I am working on MOTU wiki pages and I thin rob^ mentioned that I should take a look at it | 12:53 |
| rob^ | yes | 12:54 |
| LaserJock | where would I find it? | 12:54 |
| mdke | #ubuntu-meeting LaserJock | 12:55 |

| jsgotangco | mm? | 02:26 |
| mdke | my boss went to manila last week | 02:26 |
| jsgotangco | oh he did | 02:26 |
| mdke | for a wedding :) | 02:26 |
| jsgotangco | did he like it? | 02:26 |
| jsgotangco | he got married? | 02:26 |
| mdke | i'm not sure | 02:26 |
| mdke | no, his g/f's sister | 02:26 |
| mdke | he was meeting the inlaws for the first time | 02:26 |
| jsgotangco | well | 02:27 |
| mdke | anyhow, he had a good time because they went to some island | 02:27 |
| jsgotangco | being married over to a filipina/filipino means getting married to the whoe clan | 02:27 |
| mdke | heh | 02:27 |
| jsgotangco | he probably went to boracay | 02:27 |
| mdke | he was born there himself, but he is english. his g/f is half and half | 02:27 |
| jsgotangco | yes there are a lot of foreigners born here... | 02:28 |
| mdke | he said the island was really small, with just one hotel, somewhere in the south? | 02:28 |
| jsgotangco | for some strange reason | 02:28 |
| jsgotangco | hmm | 02:28 |
| jsgotangco | el nido | 02:28 |
| jsgotangco | perhaps | 02:28 |
| jsgotangco | there are a ton of private islands over there | 02:28 |
| mdke | rob^, you're still not commenting wiki page edits? my god | 02:28 |
| rob^ | well without a trivial edit button I couldn't be bothered most of the time | 02:29 |
| jsgotangco | rob^: face the wrath of the wiki mastah | 02:29 |
| mdke | i am always pissed if I accidentally press return too soon and miss my comment | 02:29 |
| rob^ | bring back the trivial edit button then I will comment the relevent stuff | 02:29 |
| mdke | there is no trivial button? | 02:30 |
| rob^ | otherwise the only comments will be relevent stuff :) | 02:30 |
| rob^ | oh its back | 02:30 |
| === rob^ didn't see it | ||
| mdke | it's always been there | 02:30 |
| rob^ | nah they removed it along with the subscribe option the other day | 02:30 |
| mdke | erm | 02:31 |
| mdke | you sure you're not thinking of another wiki? | 02:32 |
| rob^ | no | 02:32 |
| mdke | hmm | 02:32 |
| mdke | must have been an accidental theme change | 02:32 |
| rob^ | there were a few people complaining about it | 02:32 |
| rob^ | its just a setting in the moin config | 02:32 |
| rob^ | iirc | 02:32 |
| mdke | i can svn rm kde/upstream yeah? | 02:32 |
| rob^ | sure | 02:33 |
| mhz_shower | it's a setting line on wikiconfig.py, indeed | 02:33 |
| LaserJock | do you guys now if there is a plan to make subscriptions stay with renaming of wiki pages? | 02:33 |
| mdke | LaserJock, that is out of our hands I'm afraid | 02:33 |
| mdke | it depends on the software | 02:34 |
| mdke | ok svn up guys | 02:34 |
| rob^ | :) | 02:34 |
| mhz | LaserJock: however, I'd say that a wiki with no subscription makes absolutely no sense to my chilean ears | 02:34 |
| mdke | mhz, that is not what he said | 02:34 |
| LaserJock | mdke: ok, I thought so, thanks anyway | 02:34 |
| mhz | mdke: i know, i am supporting his idea | 02:34 |
| jsgotangco | what does A in svn mean | 02:35 |
| mdke | rob^, jsgotangco, can we get rid of some more of the miscellaneous stuff in the tree? | 02:35 |
| mdke | jsgotangco, Add | 02:35 |
| mhz | my guess is LaserJock wants that back? | 02:35 |
| mdke | jsgotangco, what is that "artwork" folder? | 02:35 |
| jsgotangco | ok thought so, at least the ubuntu upstream stuff is intact | 02:35 |
| === rob^ is still svn up-ing | ||
| jsgotangco | mdke: just leave it in branch... | 02:36 |
| LaserJock | mhz: well, I want to be able to rename a wiki and have the subscriptions change accordingly | 02:36 |
| mdke | jsgotangco, the artwork? | 02:36 |
| mdke | artwork is not in branch | 02:36 |
| mhz | LaserJock: me too :D I wanted to do some little complaining but I had second thought | 02:36 |
| jsgotangco | mdke: yes its mostly brochures we'll probably transfer them to marketing or art | 02:36 |
| mhz | LaserJock: ohh, sorry. let me think again | 02:37 |
| LaserJock | I am trying to clean up the MOTU wiki pages but I can't rename them without messing up everybodys subscriptions | 02:37 |
| mdke | LaserJock, renaming wiki pages is a immensely bad idea, don't do it | 02:37 |
| mhz | LaserJock: nop, currently it is not possible, unless new Moin v.2.0 includes it | 02:37 |
| mdke | LaserJock, it has other bad effects | 02:37 |
| LaserJock | mdke: well, I know, I just wish it were possible. what about redirecting, is that OK? | 02:38 |
| jsgotangco | wow FreeBSD 6 has wpa support | 02:38 |
| mdke | LaserJock, check out WikiGuide. basically, you can delete pages or rename em if you make sure there are gonna be NO BROKEN LINKS, either on the wiki or the wider internet | 02:38 |
| LaserJock | I hate making any more clutter but then I can't really unclutter either | 02:39 |
| mhz | LaserJock: the thing is that my guess, is that people who actively participates in wikis should check RecentChanges on daily basis so they know which pages was renamed and/or deleted | 02:39 |
| mdke | jsgotangco, were you suggesting I should delete gnome/upstream too? | 02:39 |
| === apokryphos [n=apokryph@70.85.216.98] has joined #ubuntu-doc | ||
| mdke | it has update-manager and gnome-app-install in it | 02:39 |
| mhz | LaserJock: however, I'd say that a little tweaking to Moin code on 'mailing code' should do the trick to at least send an emial to subscribers | 02:40 |
| jsgotangco | mdke: goodness no! | 02:40 |
| jsgotangco | those are ubuntu upstream and our only source atm | 02:41 |
| LaserJock | I am going to leave it alone for right now but I wanted to put all of the MOTU stuff under MOTU/ | 02:41 |
| mdke | jsgotangco, why? | 02:41 |
| mdke | jsgotangco, shouldn't that be in gnome cvs? | 02:41 |
| mhz | LaserJock: but moving subscribers 1st page to subscribers 2nd page... that sounds like much more than tweaking moin code | 02:41 |
| jsgotangco | they'e not gnome projects atm | 02:42 |
| mdke | jsgotangco, rob^, another thing that is a mess is that there is a libs/ directory in trunk/, kde/ and gnome/ | 02:42 |
| mdke | jsgotangco, update-manager is definitely in gnome cvs, I saw it | 02:42 |
| rob^ | mdke, I agree | 02:42 |
| rob^ | dam my bb is slow | 02:43 |
| jsgotangco | mdke: well ok but i'm doing gai atm | 02:44 |
| mdke | ok there is a bit of breakage with the rename | 02:53 |
| mdke | things like this: desktopguide/C/desktopguide.xml:9: warning: failed to load external entity "../gnome/libs/gnome-menus-C.ent" | 02:53 |
| mdke | that needs to be gradually fixed :D | 02:54 |

| jsgotangco | hehe | 03:49 |
| Madpilot | robitaille: enjoying their own little empire, are they? | 03:49 |
| jsgotangco | ok let's make it the two towers then | 03:50 |
| jsgotangco | marketing lp and ubuntupeople | 03:50 |
| robitaille | Madpilot, they don't feel they are ready to open up to the world before they are ready between the 5 of them. | 03:50 |
| jsgotangco | hehe | 03:50 |
| Madpilot | If there are really only 5 of them, then the sooner they link up with docteam and the other main Ubuntu teams, the better... | 03:50 |
| robitaille | the way I see it, the earlier they link up with the other team, the easier it will be for them to use resources of the whole community | 03:52 |
| jsgotangco | robitaille: who owns the lp team same person right? | 03:52 |
| jsgotangco | it seems they prefer doing business nowadays on the their forum rather than on the list created for marketing :) | 03:53 |

| robitaille | jsgotangco, Trent Lloyd is the guy behind the fourums; he is not on the LP team. He used to be on the ML, but he stopped using it (not even sure he is subscribe anymore) | 03:56 |
| nickrud | I was wondering if there was any particular reason that AddingCodecsToTotemHowTo was dropped from the wiki | 03:56 |
| jsgotangco | Lathiat? | 03:56 |
| robitaille | humm...not Lathiat. I guess I have the name wrong. one sec. | 03:57 |
| Madpilot | nickrud: probably because the content was in RestrictedContent? | 03:57 |
| Madpilot | RestrictedFormats, rather... | 03:58 |
| robitaille | jsgotangco, "Lloyd Hardy". Wrong LLoyd :) | 03:58 |
| nickrud | Until I linked the codecs into .gnome2/totem-addons, I didn't get thumbnailing of rm files | 03:59 |
| jsgotangco | figured heh | 03:59 |
| robitaille | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LloydHardy | 03:59 |
| nickrud | or playability, for that matter (totem-xine) | 03:59 |
| mdke | nickrud, perhaps the best thing is to try to improve RestrictedFormats, or link off to a subpage | 04:00 |
| mdke | jsgotangco, i just thought, before going to bed, we should go to town on repos/vendor too :D | 04:01 |
| mdke | the thought was before I go to bed, not the going to town | 04:01 |
| nickrud | I'm not sure if it's actually a bug, or intended, or whatever. I'll look around a bit more first | 04:01 |
| jsgotangco | mdke: yuck im not going into that territory | 04:08 |
| mdke | ;) | 04:08 |
| === mdke considers branches/froud | ||
| robitaille | froud? the name sounds familiar :) | 04:08 |
| jsgotangco | have you seen the gentoo documentation project (im sure mdke does) | 04:09 |
| robitaille | no | 04:10 |
| robitaille | good I assume? | 04:10 |
| jsgotangco | its about to reach the quality of the freebsd handbook | 04:11 |
| robitaille | was the Quicktour mentioned during the meeting? I see that it is still on DocteamProjects | 04:11 |
| jsgotangco | they even use their own markup | 04:12 |
| mdke | yes it's insanely good | 04:12 |
| mdke | but that's not surprising really | 04:12 |
| mdke | mature distro, expert userbase | 04:13 |
| jsgotangco | mdke: did you rename or just copied? | 04:13 |
| mdke | eh? | 04:13 |
| jsgotangco | i seem to be having gnome and ubuntu now | 04:13 |
| jsgotangco | kde and kubuntu | 04:13 |
| jsgotangco | heh | 04:13 |
| mdke | erm | 04:14 |
| robitaille | I'm not a big fan of of the colours on the gentoo doc site, but it seems impressive | 04:14 |
| mdke | only ubuntu and kubuntu are under version control | 04:14 |
| mdke | you must have some junk left over | 04:14 |
| jsgotangco | strange everything is in svn still | 04:14 |
| jsgotangco | :) | 04:14 |
| jsgotangco | robitaille: they built their own markup based on docbook how crackful can you get | 04:15 |
| jsgotangco | hehe | 04:15 |

| === jsgotangco shows puny 114 karma | ||
| jsgotangco | oh its EN_US for co-worker | 04:20 |
| mdke | jordi's karma is a lot better than that | 04:20 |
| mdke | oh I see | 04:20 |
| mdke | yes, we have that word, i just didn't get it | 04:20 |
| jsgotangco | well jordi is a different case | 04:20 |
| jsgotangco | he uses lp like he plays quake or street fighter | 04:21 |
| jsgotangco | when we were in UDU, he was teased so much that he looked like Vega (of street fighter) | 04:22 |
| mdke | heh | 04:22 |
| robitaille | I use to be near 400 of karma...but I'm now down in the 100s. | 04:22 |
| mdke | nah his karma is high because he uploads a lot of po and pot files | 04:22 |
| mdke | go to his page, then click translations | 04:23 |
| jsgotangco | yes | 04:23 |
| robitaille | I really have to get back into the bug triage business | 04:23 |
| mdke | LP crashes for me :) | 04:23 |
| jsgotangco | im sure the karma system will incorporate more, but at the moment, most of the karma comes from rosetta | 04:23 |
| jsgotangco | malone doesn't give that much | 04:23 |
| mdke | i've just done an svn rm, how can I undo my change? | 04:23 |

| robitaille | LaserJock, to subscribe to all, you need to use .* | 06:43 |
| LaserJock | so, if I want to do all of the MOTU wiki pages can I just do MOTU* ? | 06:46 |
| robitaille | LaserJock, possibly. I never tried it, but think it should work. | 06:47 |
| LaserJock | well, that is what I have. I haven't gotten any emails since I did that but it could be all the UBZ work ;-) | 06:50 |
| Madpilot | LaserJock: you could always subscribe to RecentChanges as a backup :P | 06:51 |
| robitaille | It's 1am in Montreal. They are all in bed, or they are all partying; I think it was poker night tonight :) | 06:52 |
| LaserJock | Madpilot: good suggestion, thanks | 06:52 |
| robitaille | Let me go edit one of the MOTU page to see if the change shows up on your end. | 06:52 |
| LaserJock | robitaille: thanks | 06:53 |
| robitaille | did a trivial edit to MOTUScience. But according to the message from the wiki after my edit, I don't think it sent you an email | 06:54 |
| robitaille | maybe you should use MOTU.* as your pattern | 06:56 |
| Rob2 | how do i get the grub menu to use the full screen of my laptop on boot? | 06:57 |
| LaserJock | robitaille: could you edit MOTUScience again but not mark it as a trivial change? | 06:59 |
| Madpilot | is anyone else having trouble with GMail? I can log in, but then it just sits at "Loading..." forever... | 06:59 |

| Madpilot | no, this is in Opera, off mail.google.com - I'm going to check with FF - but Opera was working just fine last night, and I've not changed anything... | 07:05 |
| robitaille | Madpilot, I had problem with gmail yesterday, but today seems fine. | 07:07 |
| robitaille | LaserJock, done. And I think an email is on its way :) | 07:07 |
| rob^ | oh for those wondering whats going on with the ccbysa.xml, you need to use xincludes instead of entities now | 07:08 |
| rob^ | using xincludes is kind of like using functions when programming, you can have your own variables (entities) and stuff | 07:08 |
| rob^ | (local variables) | 07:08 |
| rob^ | using an entity to include a .xml doc includes it exactly as is, hence doubling up on the header and causing erros | 07:09 |

| rob^ | hmm the freebsd handbook is really well layed out | 07:41 |
| LaserJock | rob^: URL? | 07:41 |
| rob^ | actually my layout for the desktop guide is kind of like it without the server bits | 07:41 |
| rob^ | http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/index.html | 07:41 |
| rob^ | how odd is that? | 07:42 |
| rob^ | and I've never even seen it before.. | 07:42 |
| LaserJock | great minds think alike? [-) | 07:42 |
| rob^ | heh | 07:42 |
| LaserJock | is there a guide for users of other linux distros? kind of advanced, this is how we do it in Ubuntu kind of guide. | 07:45 |
| rob^ | umm.. there are handbooks and user guides available for other distros, and there is a gnome userguide but its pretty unloved at the moment | 07:46 |
| LaserJock | no, I mean for more advanced users coming from other distros to Ubuntu. Stuff like the sudo thing, dpkg-reconfigure, advanced apt-get and stuff that other, non-debian distros don't have | 07:48 |
| rob^ | oh | 07:48 |
| rob^ | well the desktop guide covers things like sudo but there isn't an advanced guide | 07:49 |
| LaserJock | I am a former gentoo user and I found some things a little hard to get used to at first | 07:49 |
| LaserJock | I usually find desktop guides pretty boring, so I don't read them much | 07:49 |
| rob^ | ubuntu tends to hold your hand more | 07:49 |
| rob^ | might be something on the wiki maybe.. | 07:50 |
| rob^ | I remember there was BreakMyUbuntu once, but it doesn't exactly cover what your after | 07:51 |
| LaserJock | hmm, maybe I will have to think about that some. Maybe something for the future. I'm not convinced that advanced users would even bother looking at something like that | 07:52 |
| rob^ | yeah agreed | 07:52 |

| bhuvan | rob^: you there ? | 07:56 |
| rob^ | bhuvan, yes | 07:57 |
| bhuvan | regarding validation issue. i do get error in trunk | 07:57 |
| rob^ | what doc are you validating? | 07:57 |
| bhuvan | ok. kubuntu/kfaqguide/C/faqguide.xml | 07:58 |
| LaserJock | rob^: what do you guys use to do the docs? I am totally ignorant. | 07:59 |
| rob^ | xml (docbook) | 07:59 |
| LaserJock | so how do you view that? | 07:59 |
| LaserJock | I tried conglomerate but I crashed on some of the docs | 08:00 |
| rob^ | I just use gedit to edit it | 08:00 |
| rob^ | and use Yelp to view it | 08:00 |
| bhuvan | w.u.c/DocteamStepByStepRepository for more details | 08:00 |
| rob^ | yep | 08:00 |
| LaserJock | ok, thanks | 08:00 |
| rob^ | bhuvan, the first error is: | 08:00 |
| rob^ | faqguide.xml:9: warning: failed to load external entity "../../../gnome/libs/gnome-menus-C.ent" | 08:00 |
| rob^ | %gnome-menus-C; | 08:01 |
| rob^ | ^ | 08:01 |
| bhuvan | rob^: by default, it reports 'invalid element ...' error | 08:01 |
| bhuvan | the first error is '../../../common/C/ccbysa.xml:2: parser error : StartTag: invalid element name' | 08:01 |
| bhuvan | :) | 08:01 |
| rob^ | its because the header is wrong in that file, remember that mdke just renamed "gnome" to "ubuntu" | 08:01 |
| rob^ | its just looking in the wrong place | 08:01 |
| bhuvan | yeah, i do have the latest copy | 08:02 |
| rob^ | if you fix up all of the directory paths in faqguide.xml then it will work, there is nothing wrong with ccbysa.xml | 08:02 |
| rob^ | also you need to use xincludes for ccbysa.xml, entities won't work either | 08:03 |
| bhuvan | ok, i believe the change was done by mdke. i've not done any change myself | 08:03 |
| bhuvan | should i ? | 08:03 |
| rob^ | sure | 08:03 |
| rob^ | &cc-by-sa; <-- this is an entity | 08:03 |
| bhuvan | ok | 08:03 |
| bhuvan | what should it be ? | 08:04 |
| rob^ | use this for the two licences: | 08:04 |
| rob^ | <xi:include href="../../../common/C/ccbysa.xml" xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"/> | 08:04 |
| rob^ | <xi:include href="../../../common/C/fdl.xml" xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"/> | 08:04 |
| rob^ | and in the header of faqguide.xml you need to have: | 08:04 |
| rob^ | <!ENTITY % xinclude SYSTEM "../../../libs/xinclude.mod"> | 08:05 |
| rob^ | %xinclude; | 08:05 |
| bhuvan | hum | 08:05 |
| bhuvan | we both are talking the same thing | 08:05 |
| bhuvan | my patch extactly contains this | 08:05 |
| rob^ | however before working on the kubuntu faq guide you need to talk to jjesse as we are going to use Kudos for it | 08:05 |
| rob^ | well a fork anyway | 08:05 |
| bhuvan | ok | 08:06 |
| bhuvan | so, if you make these changes could you please commit the changes ? | 08:06 |
| rob^ | sure | 08:06 |
| bhuvan | you must do these changes in ubuntu/adminguide/C/adminguide.xml as well | 08:08 |
| rob^ | the admin guide is fine iirc | 08:08 |
| === rob^ looks, no it isn't :) | ||

| Burgundavia | sounds good | 04:31 |
| Burgundavia | do you know about CategoryCleanup ? | 04:31 |
| Kyral | Nope | 04:32 |
| Burgundavia | it lists pages that need help | 04:32 |
| Kyral | I heard about DocTeam from LaserJock b/c he wanted my help with the Packaging Guide | 04:32 |
| Burgundavia | cool, welcome aboard | 04:32 |
| Burgundavia | the wiki needs the most help over the dapper devel cycle | 04:32 |

| Kyral | The LiveCD Entry is like....old.... | 04:33 |

| Kyral | Should I put my name in the Installer Guide and change it to WIP? | 04:35 |
| Burgundavia | yes | 04:35 |
| jsgotangco | sup | 04:36 |
| Kyral | Done | 04:37 |
| jsgotangco | Kyral: welcome | 04:37 |
| Kyral | Should I join the LaunchPad group? | 04:37 |
| Burgundavia | the wiki one or the doc team one? | 04:38 |
| Kyral | Either | 04:39 |
| Burgundavia | Kyral, what is your wikiname? | 04:39 |
| Kyral | ChrisPeterman | 04:39 |
| Burgundavia | I would do a few edits before joining the wiki team | 04:40 |
| jsgotangco | i'd like to propose bhuvan as well | 04:40 |
| Burgundavia | sounds good | 04:40 |
| Kyral | Okay | 04:40 |
| Burgundavia | for the commit access, send some patches to the list | 04:40 |
| Burgundavia | jsgotangco, I had a good talk with Robert Collins about bzr a couple of days ago | 04:40 |
| Burgundavia | about switching to bzr | 04:40 |
| Kyral | I've been meening to add onto the PBuilder Howto something about how to have and manage multiple PBuilders | 04:40 |
| Burgundavia | cool | 04:41 |
| jsgotangco | Burgundavia: oh are you convinced? | 04:41 |
| jsgotangco | was james black there? | 04:41 |
| Burgundavia | jsgotangco, I am moving in that direction | 04:41 |
| Burgundavia | yes | 04:41 |
| Burgundavia | today I learned that bzr is going to get a simple command: bzr publish | 04:41 |
| jsgotangco | yes | 04:41 |
| Burgundavia | which would push your branch to the supermirror | 04:41 |
| Burgundavia | then they could tell us about their branch and we could merge it, rather than patches coming in | 04:42 |
| jsgotangco | i could start a supermirror anytime if we're ready | 04:42 |
| jsgotangco | well yes | 04:42 |
| mdke | Kyral, if you're interested in an Install guide, perhaps search the mailing list, i think there have been a few people doing some work in that direction, you could pool resources | 04:43 |
| === Kyral goes over to lists.ubuntu.com | ||
| === mpt [n=mpt@66.103.220.241] has joined #ubuntu-doc | ||
| Burgundavia | salut mpt | 04:43 |
| mdke | and there is obviously a fair amount of work in the repository already | 04:44 |
| jsgotangco | Burgundavia: we can see how it pans out when bzr is done | 04:44 |
| mdke | dunno what state it's in tho | 04:44 |
| Kyral | mdke, yea | 04:44 |
| Kyral | I was thinking of Beginnerizing it (did I just makeup a word?!) | 04:44 |
| mdke | heh | 04:44 |
| Kyral | Perhaps pull in Aysiu's work | 04:44 |
| mdke | Kyral, the best thing would be to write up a spec, and then we can talk about it | 04:44 |
| Burgundavia | jsgotangco, that is my thought as well. I suspect dapper+1 is more doable | 04:45 |
| jsgotangco | Burgundavia: aye, dapper+1 is a reasonable target | 04:45 |
| === mdke nods | ||
| === Kyral wishes the Forums were up so he could link to Aysiu's guide | ||
| Kyral | Specs are made via Launchpad right </Stupid Question> | 04:48 |
| mdke | not a stupid question | 04:48 |
| mdke | answer is no | 04:48 |
| mdke | just make a page on the wiki | 04:48 |
| Kyral | Ah | 04:48 |
| mdke | Kyral, see this for an example | 04:49 |
| mdke | [15:48:46] < mdke> just make a page on the wiki | 04:49 |
| mdke | [15:48:57] < Kyral> Ah | 04:49 |
| mdke | [15:49:10] < mdke> Kyral, see this for an example | 04:49 |
| mdke | [1:S 2:#ubuntu-doc 3:#ubuntu-it 4:#ubuntu-locoteams 5:#ubuntu-laptop 6:#ubuntu-devel 7:albert 8:#DHCLug] [mdke(+ei)] | 04:49 |
| Kyral | After my little installfest/PotsdamNYLocoTeam Startup thing ;P | 04:49 |
| mdke | [DCCs: None] | 04:49 |
| mdke | gah | 04:49 |
| mdke | i HATE computers | 04:49 |
| jsgotangco | Kyral: the lp page is used for tracking | 04:49 |
| Kyral | hehehe | 04:49 |
| mdke | Kyral, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopGuide | 04:49 |
| mdke | jsgotangco, it's not used for tracking specs for individual docs | 04:49 |
| mdke | don't confuse im! | 04:49 |
| mdke | Kyral, once you've started it, pls link it in the Title area of the table on DocteamProjects in the "Install" section | 04:50 |
| Kyral | hi hi | 04:51 |
| jsgotangco | mdke: well i'm not i thought he was asking more into an ubz context, but then again, we're free to use lp to track down our own specs and make our own online sprint if needed :P | 04:52 |
| === jsgotangco goes back to lp work | ||
| mdke | damn obsession with LP specs <grumpy> | 04:52 |
| jsgotangco | mdke: LP is more fun than Quake4 | 04:53 |
| mdke | really? | 04:53 |
| jsgotangco | ubuntu-ph uses lp a lot | 04:54 |
| Burgundavia | we had a discussion last night about if LP needed buy-in from big existing communties to thrive | 04:56 |
| mdke | heh | 04:56 |
| Burgundavia | ie, gnome, debian, etc. | 04:56 |
| mdke | who pulled out the "foot in the door" argument | 04:56 |
| Burgundavia | jdub basically said that we don't need buyin, LP exists without them and provides value without buyin | 04:57 |
| mdke | i think LP will eventually show off it's best attributes if a lot of different communities start using it | 04:58 |
| mdke | but it should be pretty mature before that happens | 04:58 |
| Burgundavia | yes | 04:58 |
| mdke | it's/its | 04:58 |
| Burgundavia | there have been very cool developments in Ubuntu, edubuntu and LP here | 04:58 |
| mdke | good | 04:58 |
| Burgundavia | https://launchpad.net/sprints/ubz/+specstable | 04:59 |
| Burgundavia | that lists specs of all types | 04:59 |
| jdub | mdke: they don't all need to use it directly for it to be valuable to everyone, however | 05:03 |
| mdke | jdub, i'm sure that is true | 05:04 |
| mdke | with the caveat that it seems to be causing a few problems for gnome translators | 05:04 |
| mdke | I was just saying that its value with grow the more communities are using it | 05:04 |
| mdke | with/will | 05:05 |
| jsgotangco | mdke: in our experience in ph, we use lp to translate gnome | 05:07 |
| jsgotangco | we moved all gnome translators to lp | 05:08 |
| jsgotangco | as well as OOo | 05:08 |
| mdke | that's quite cool | 05:13 |
| mdke | if you do that, that stops any problems of people who aren't in gnome translator groups translating gnome upstream | 05:13 |
| jsgotangco | yes | 05:14 |
| jsgotangco | we're a relatively small group and we know one another | 05:14 |
| jsgotangco | that's the strategy we took | 05:14 |
| jsgotangco | debian stuff we do it upstream | 05:14 |
| jsgotangco | so we don't touch those apps in lp | 05:15 |
| mdke | they import into breezy ok? | 05:15 |
| jsgotangco | dapper is our acid test | 05:15 |
| jsgotangco | i don't lead the effort, we have one guy who's been doing this for years | 05:16 |
| jsgotangco | really respected locally | 05:16 |
| jsgotangco | ill brb | 05:17 |

| spayne | Burgundavia: i was going to ask, do you use KDE or GNOME? | 08:52 |
| Burgundavia | spayne, GNOME | 09:07 |
| highvoltage | hi everyone. how are things? | 09:07 |
| spayne | Burgundavia, always used GNOME - downloading Kubuntu to see what it is like | 09:07 |
| highvoltage | seems like kubuntu has been receiving lots of attention lately. | 09:08 |
| Burgundavia | that is a good thing | 09:09 |
| Burgundavia | the new ubuntu-express is going to be seperated into a backend and frontend | 09:09 |
| Burgundavia | so the kubuntu people can have it at the same time | 09:09 |
| apokryphos | also the recent discussions seem really promising http://www.kubuntu.org/announcements/kde-commitment.php :) | 09:10 |
| Burgundavia | same with network-manager and the new power management | 09:10 |
| highvoltage | that's good. i think it should've been like that since the beginning. | 09:10 |
| Burgundavia | yes | 09:10 |
| highvoltage | kubuntu is now #9 on distrowatch for last month view. that means 7 out of the 10 top distros are debian based. | 09:11 |
| Burgundavia | yes | 09:12 |
| spayne | just never tried KDE for ages | 09:12 |
| spayne | not since 1998 IIRC which i just dipped my feet with SUSE 7.2 | 09:12 |
| highvoltage | edubuntu is at #48, it surpassed all other education aimed distro's in its first month | 09:12 |
| Burgundavia | that is criming | 09:13 |
| Burgundavia | wow, I can type today | 09:13 |
| Burgundavia | I have no idea what i meant to say | 09:13 |
| highvoltage | i wish i was using linux in '98. back then i was still using windows full time. | 09:13 |
| highvoltage | "that is climing" | 09:13 |
| highvoltage | "wow, I can't type today" | 09:13 |
| highvoltage | ? | 09:13 |
| LaserJock | I was a long time KDE user before I moved to Ubuntu | 09:13 |
| spayne | highvoltage: i still use Windows for some applications | 09:15 |
| spayne | highvoltage, i have just got CrossOver Office 5 | 09:15 |
| spayne | highvoltage, which looks pretty sweet | 09:15 |
| spayne | LaserJock, and you changed to GNOME? | 09:15 |
| highvoltage | i used kde first too, and then GNOME. | 09:17 |
| highvoltage | it was easier for me to adjust to KDE, being a long-time windows user. | 09:17 |
| highvoltage | but when i toyed a bit with gnome i got used to it, and found i was more productive in gnome than in kde. | 09:18 |
| LaserJock | spayne: yes. I wanted to give the whole Gnome thing a chance | 09:18 |
| LaserJock | spayne: there are some annoyances and some progs that I wish it had but it is really nice all the same | 09:18 |
| spayne | GNOME just seems a little bland sometimes | 09:18 |
| highvoltage | spayne: you can spice it up | 09:19 |
| highvoltage | here are some screenshots of my gnome: http://jonathancarter.co.za/photies/screenshots | 09:19 |
| LaserJock | spayne: yeah, but I find it to be somewhat less childish and more productive | 09:19 |
| spayne | highvoltage, possibly, i don't like 'tarty; things | 09:19 |
| highvoltage | although, there's more that i should upload at some stage. | 09:19 |
| highvoltage | tarty? | 09:19 |
| spayne | a british expresson | 09:19 |
| LaserJock | I have actually grow to like the whole Ubuntu brown Human theme thing | 09:20 |
| highvoltage | i like blue. | 09:21 |

| LaserJock | highvoltage: I usually do but the brown has grown on me | 09:21 |
| highvoltage | i actually customised my ubuntu interface slightly, and my phone's interface slightly, now they look more or less the same. | 09:21 |
| spayne | my desktop as of 30 seconds ago http://www.evolutionconsultancy.com/~spayne/shots/Desktop-051105.png | 09:22 |
| spayne | any thoughts? | 09:24 |
| highvoltage | downloading pic... (slow connection) | 09:24 |
| mdke | evenin all | 09:27 |
| LaserJock | spayne: looks pretty cool to me. | 09:27 |
| highvoltage | still looks very standard though, not that there's something wrong with that. | 09:27 |
| highvoltage | at least you don't have 100 icons on your desktop :) | 09:27 |
| LaserJock | I usually put my tasklist in the top bar so I get more space for my windows | 09:29 |
| mdke | screenshot time eh | 09:33 |

| LaserJock | me too | 09:36 |
| mdke | nice background tho, i saw it on art.u.c | 09:36 |
| highvoltage | yes, i also think that's of the nicest brown wallpaper i've seen so far. | 09:37 |
| === Burgundavia is confused | ||
| highvoltage | how so? | 09:38 |

| mdke | heh | 09:43 |
| mdke | nice | 09:43 |
| mdke | a bit dark for me | 09:43 |
| Burgundavia | LaserJock, Madpilot uses the same desktop | 09:43 |
| LaserJock | great minds think alike ;-) | 09:44 |
| highvoltage | goodnight! | 09:48 |

| spayne | Burgundavia: is it true sabdfl uses Kubuntu? | 10:08 |
| highvoltage | spayne: no :) | 10:09 |
| robitaille | spayne, he was talking of switching to Kubuntu on his desktop; not sure if he has done it yet | 10:09 |
| highvoltage | he's using gnome. | 10:09 |
| spayne | highvoltage: http://www.kubuntu.org/announcements/kde-commitment.php | 10:09 |
| highvoltage | i saw that. | 10:10 |
| spayne | robitaille, wonder what he thinks | 10:10 |
| robitaille | http://www.kdedevelopers.org/node/1574 | 10:10 |
| Burgundavia | spayne, hey is switching for the dapper release | 10:11 |
| Burgundavia | s/hey/he | 10:11 |
| robitaille | maybe I should try Kubuntu on my 2nd partition on my desktop. Never been a big KDE fan, but last time I tried KDE was on an older Mandrake | 10:11 |
| spayne | i tried KDE back on SUSE 7.2 robitaille :-) | 10:11 |
| spayne | just downloaded Kubuntu | 10:11 |
| apokryphos | no need for a seperate partition; they can run in harmony quite well | 10:15 |
| Burgundavia | spayne, he is looking at what polish we can do for kubuntu | 10:15 |
| spayne | fair enough Burgundavia | 10:16 |
| Burgundavia | his primary focus is still gnome and ubuntu | 10:16 |
| robitaille | apokryphos, I want to test a clean install, away from the default breezy install used by the rest of the family. It our home desktop :) | 10:16 |
| apokryphos | he has it on the lappy, and mentioned he's probably switching to kubuntu on the desktop for dapper | 10:16 |
| LaserJock | spayne: I often use both Gnome and KDE. There really is no reason you have to stick to just one | 10:16 |
| apokryphos | robitaille: not enough space on there? | 10:17 |
| apokryphos | LaserJock: definitely | 10:17 |
| robitaille | apokryphos, I usually triple-boot on that PC; Windows/Ubuntu Stable/Ubuntu Unstable. But I'm thinking of replacing the now unused Hoary partition by Kubuntu. | 10:18 |
| apokryphos | You can, of course; I'd just find it weird -- I doubt you'd ever do that on another distro. Just that this one has seperate ISOs =) | 10:18 |
| apokryphos | I always use different partitions for different distros; not for just different DEs :P | 10:19 |
| LaserJock | I am starting to use chroots more but that doesn't help with testing installers though | 10:19 |
| apokryphos | s/desktop/lappy/ (and visa versa), above. :-O | 10:28 |
| mdke | heh | 10:36 |
| mdke | now mark is saying that he'll use kubuntu, it will become fashionable | 10:36 |
