| siretart | Kmirno_AWAY: or Mirno: Okay, I think that has been enough time for other motus to comment on the opera situation. According to what I have read, I THINK that redistribution is okay for multiverse. So I'd say lets try it, as nobody objected so far | 12:18 |
| siretart | Kmirno_AWAY: It would be nice if your contributor, who is willing to maintain the package would show us his package, in order to get it uploaded to ubuntu | 12:19 |
| siretart | Kmirno_AWAY: and to be honest, I think we have even harier stuff in multiverse: think of packageslike j2re1.4 or acroread :/ | 12:20 |
| siretart | Kmirno_AWAY: Sorry for the late answer, but I wanted to give other the chance to comment on the situation | 12:21 |
| sivang | bah | 12:21 |
| sivang | (hi all) | 12:21 |
| sivang | java is evil :) | 12:21 |
| siretart | hi sivang | 12:21 |
| sivang | hey siretart , how are stuff going? | 12:21 |
| siretart | sivang: a bit tired, I just returned from the cinema and I'm reading my emails. You are you? | 12:22 |
| siretart | argl. I mean: How are you? | 12:22 |
| sivang | siretart: pretty fine, finally got my desktop computer at my new apartment, and it's already set up with dapper chroot , I hope to have less hours at work following week so I will be finally able to help with the merges... | 12:23 |
| sivang | siretart: (I recently moved) | 12:23 |
| siretart | :) | 12:23 |
| sivang | yah, I've been talking much about it and didn't have any time at all to contribute on that :-( | 12:23 |
| LaserJock | so is the MOTU responsible for Multiverse too? | 12:24 |
| === siretart still waiting for the ordered harddrives, for experimenting with snapshotted chroots using lvm :) | ||
| siretart | LaserJock: sure | 12:24 |
| sivang | siretart: what drives did you order? :) | 12:25 |
| sivang | siretart: is this something new? I never heared of snapshotted chroots with lvm :) | 12:25 |
| LaserJock | siretart: what about restricted? | 12:25 |
| Nafallo | main+restricted == supported == not us | 12:26 |
| siretart | LaserJock: restricted are just a few package, you don't want to mess with them ;) (they are for main uploaders only) | 12:27 |
| siretart | sivang: 2 s-ata drives, nothing spectacular | 12:27 |
| LaserJock | ah, ok so it is really MOTU&M | 12:27 |
| siretart | sivang: lvm2 has a nice feature of snapshotting volumes. It has been on my list for a long time :) | 12:27 |
| sivang | siretart: wow cool, I have a big sata drive (120gb) I might use this as well :) | 12:32 |
| siretart | okay folks, I'm off for today. - gn8, cu tomorrow! | 12:33 |

| raphink | sistpoty: i've uploaded 4 lately | 01:44 |
| sistpoty | raphink: to revu? | 01:44 |
| raphink | I think the most achieved ones are kio-sword and knmap | 01:44 |
| raphink | toutf8 is a very very small one | 01:44 |
| raphink | should take 5 seconds to be checked ;) | 01:44 |
| sistpoty | raphink: ok, I'll have a look... ;) | 01:45 |
| raphink | thanks sistpoty :) | 01:45 |
| raphink | for kim though, there are mans missing... otherwise I think it's fine | 01:45 |
| crimsun | your goal really should be to get it into Debian, which will pretty much need a man page | 01:54 |
| raphink | ok | 01:55 |
| raphink | well the thing is that kim is a collection of bash scripts | 01:55 |
| raphink | so I have to find out how to write manpages for console scripts | 01:55 |
| raphink | and there are 14 of them in this package | 01:55 |

| bmonty_laptop | minghua: pong | 02:04 |
| sistpoty | wb :) | 02:04 |
| Kyral | Moved the root FS and now I'm being introduced to recovering GRUB from a Chroot | 02:04 |
| bmonty_laptop | hi sistpoty | 02:04 |
| minghua | hi bmonty_laptop, I've added some comments in the fam merge bug | 02:05 |
| minghua | bmonty_laptop: I hope you've seen it | 02:05 |
| bmonty_laptop | minghua: yeah I saw, I'm trying to figure out what happened. | 02:06 |
| minghua | bmonty_laptop: the shared library name issue is quite tricky, and we'd better get it right | 02:06 |
| bmonty_laptop | minghua: agreed, I spent most of my time checking on that, I'm not sure how the maintainer name got messed up | 02:06 |
| minghua | in short, fam uses C++, but only exports C ABI, so no name change is necessary | 02:07 |
| bmonty_laptop | binary packages should be limfam0 and libfam-dev | 02:07 |
| minghua | but breezy shipped libfam0 anyway, so we probably have more problems than debian | 02:07 |
| minghua | bmonty_laptop: maybe because debian changed maintainer between the breezy merge and the dapper merge? | 02:08 |
| bmonty_laptop | maybe, I gotta get these diffs straight in my head again | 02:08 |
| raphink | thanks sistpoty | 02:09 |
| sistpoty | raphink: I'll review another one... but then I need to go to bed ;) | 02:09 |
| Kyral | grr damn GRUB | 02:09 |
| raphink | ok sistpoty :) | 02:09 |
| bmonty_laptop | minghua: I must have been confused earlier, the more I look at this, the more I am thinking fam is a sync | 02:12 |
| minghua | bmonty_laptop: what about the LSB init script changes? | 02:13 |
| bmonty_laptop | the MoM merge is weird | 02:13 |
| bmonty_laptop | ah yes, that is why I did the patch earlier | 02:14 |
| bmonty_laptop | no I remember :) | 02:14 |
| sistpoty | raphink: please limit line length in debian/changelog to 80 chars (kio-sword) | 02:14 |
| raphink | ok | 02:14 |
| sistpoty | back in 5 mins | 02:15 |
| raphink | :) | 02:15 |
| bmonty_laptop | minghua: now I just need to figure out why the control file got messed up | 02:15 |
| raphink | what is longer than 80 chars in kio-sword sistpoty ? | 02:16 |
| minghua | bmonty_laptop: If the MoM merge doesn't look good, I usually just look at the ubuntu changes (as it's supposed to be small), and try to apply relevant part to the sid version | 02:16 |
| minghua | bmonty_laptop: that way things seem to be clearer to me. but of course, that's just my personal preference | 02:17 |
| bmonty_laptop | minghua: I used the MoM merged package and tested the build/install with that. | 02:17 |
| bmonty_laptop | looks like MoM dropped some control file changes and I missed that (except for automake1.9 build dep) | 02:18 |
| minghua | bmonty_laptop: ubuntu changed the priority, so that's perhaps why MoM was confused | 02:19 |
| minghua | (because it loses the diff context) | 02:20 |
| === spstarr_home [n=sh0n@CPEdeadbeef0000-CM000039d4cc6a.cpe.net.cable.rogers.com] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| minghua | bmonty_laptop: the main reason I wrote that comment, though, is to alert you that we may want the name libfam0c102 for dapper | 02:21 |
| sistpoty | raphink: in debian/changelog the entry "* Patch 01 fixes stricmp [...] " | 02:22 |
| bmonty_laptop | minghua: I thought we were getting away from those names | 02:22 |
| raphink | oh yeah changelog sorry sistpoty, ok | 02:22 |
| minghua | bmonty_laptop: no, as I've said, fam doesn't export C++ ABI at all | 02:22 |
| raphink | sistpoty: shall I add newlines, or just try to cut it? | 02:22 |
| minghua | bmonty_laptop: so Debian probably will keep the name, see the debian bug report I mentioned | 02:23 |
| sistpoty | raphink: just add newlines... | 02:23 |
| raphink | ok sistpoty, so just as in the description in control :) | 02:23 |
| sistpoty | raphink: in control only the description should not be longer than 80 chars... build-depends must be in one line | 02:25 |
| raphink | yes | 02:26 |
| raphink | that's what I meant | 02:26 |
| sistpoty | ok | 02:26 |
| raphink | so I do just as for the description in control that's what I meant ;) | 02:26 |
| sistpoty | hehe ;) | 02:26 |
| sistpoty | ok, i need some sleep now. gn8 | 02:28 |
| raphink | ok | 02:29 |
| raphink | good night sistpoty :) | 02:29 |
| raphink | thank you for your reviews :) | 02:29 |

| Kmirno | Tonio_: siretart said they'll try to get Opera into MOTU. | 10:06 |
| siretart | Kmirno: now you confuse me: do you take the original .debs distributed by opera? | 10:06 |
| Kmirno | siretart: yes | 10:06 |
| Tonio_ | Kmirno: hi, thanks, that's a good news;) | 10:06 |
| Tonio_ | according to the redistribution licence, I haven't seen something that would obviously forbid that. | 10:07 |
| crimsun | opera updates their debs fairly regularly, though | 10:07 |
| Tonio_ | anyway, that's a very good news | 10:07 |
| siretart | Kmirno: same for skype? | 10:07 |
| Tonio_ | hello siretart | 10:08 |
| siretart | I don't quite get the point in redistributing binary .debs.. | 10:08 |
| siretart | hi Tonio_ | 10:08 |
| crimsun | I don't either | 10:08 |
| freeflying | siretart: hi | 10:08 |
| Kmirno | siretart: skype has some mdodifs as it is not working properly from vendor .. see keyes for details he is the maintainer I don't know much more about it | 10:08 |
| Kmirno | crimsun: ease of access | 10:09 |
| crimsun | Kmirno: and what about updates? | 10:09 |
| Kmirno | crimsun: that's allwhat PLF is about, provideing questionnable (or less questionnable) packages with ease of access. | 10:09 |
| Kmirno | crimsun: well we update the package when there's a new one | 10:09 |
| freeflying | dose who maintain package of xorg | 10:09 |
| Kmirno | crimsun: that's the maintainers job | 10:10 |
| siretart | Kmirno: so you confuse me again: earlier you tell me that you redistribute unmodified binaries from upstream, now you say Keyes is modifing the binary deb | 10:10 |
| crimsun | freeflying: the main team does, but mostly daniels | 10:10 |

| siretart | Kmirno: faciliating is one point. I try to help you to provide package with some quality standards | 10:11 |

| crimsun | ah, so we're not talking about multiverse or universe at all but plf | 10:12 |
| Kmirno | siretart: well Opera packages seem good quality no ? | 10:12 |
| siretart | Kmirno: in order to do that, I need to be able to review your work. and this doesn't work very well without 'source packages' | 10:12 |

| Kmirno | siretart: yup | 10:12 |
| siretart | Kmirno: I'd really appreciate if someone would package the opera binaries suitable for multiverse | 10:13 |
| siretart | Kmirno: I don't see objections to not redistribute them via multiverse | 10:13 |
| siretart | Kmirno: would you or someone from plf volunteer to work on an upload suitable for multiverse? | 10:14 |

| Kmirno | siretart: I'd really apreciate if someone do my work for me too :) hh ... Ask the mailing list for volonteers if you wish :) | 10:15 |
| ajmitch | since the only ubuntu changes that were noted aren't changelog related | 10:15 |

| Kmirno | siretart: I can't answer for others | 10:15 |

| zakame | ajmitch: hmm, indeed, it wasn't noted in the changelog earlier | 10:17 |

| zakame | ajmitch: bye, and thanks for the input! :) | 10:19 |
| Kmirno | siretart: well I would cp packages from opera into PLF an that would constitue the release of opera in PLF. | 10:20 |
| siretart | Kmirno: perhaps we can agree on this: you redistribute the opera .debs until somebody uploads opera binaries to multiverse? (as nobody seems interested, I don't expect that to happen soon) | 10:21 |
| Kmirno | siretart: Absolutely Just warn me when you want me to remove them. | 10:22 |

| Gloubiboulga | good question | 05:09 |
| Gloubiboulga | I guess so | 05:10 |
| Gloubiboulga | libreadline4 version :4.3-18, and libreadline4-dev: 4.3-17 on dapper | 05:10 |
| Gloubiboulga | the dev package can't be installed | 05:11 |
| bmonty_laptop | maybe -dev failed to build? | 05:12 |
| slomo_ | either both or none has failed in general | 05:12 |
| slomo_ | Gloubiboulga: libreadline5 is the newest afaik | 05:13 |
| Gloubiboulga | yep, I've just seen that | 05:13 |
| bmonty_laptop | I don't see libreadline4 in the buildlogs, and I've worked with several packages that are using libreadline5 | 05:14 |

| LaserJock | how's it going? | 06:28 |
| bmonty_laptop | pretty good here, you? | 06:29 |
| LaserJock | bmonty_laptop: oh, alright. I wish I could spend more time on Ubuntu and less on my research | 06:29 |
| LaserJock | bmonty_laptop: Is it bad that I would rather play with linux than work in my field? | 06:30 |
| bmonty_laptop | LaserJock: no, sometimes I feel the same way | 06:30 |
| LaserJock | bmonty_laptop: Right now I feel like I'm spinning my wheels right now in my research. At least with Ubuntu I can see some progress | 06:31 |
| bmonty_laptop | yeah, I know that feeling...I've worked on a couple of projects where I came on after the project started and left before it finished | 06:32 |
| bmonty_laptop | hard to stay motivated when you know you won't see the end | 06:33 |
| LaserJock | bmonty_laptop: that's what I am up against. I need to have the organic chemists make the molecules I want to study but they are having a hard time so I don't know if I will get to do much with them | 06:33 |
| bmonty_laptop | otherwise you are stuck playing with a simulation, right? | 06:34 |
| LaserJock | bmonty_laptop: well, since I'm an experimentalist I get to work on other similar molecules :) | 06:34 |
| LaserJock | so in the mean time I am going to work on MOTUScience and hopefully some wiki work too ;-) | 06:36 |
| bmonty_laptop | but you have an optimal molecule that in theory does what you want, right? | 06:36 |
| ajmitch | Need to get 165MB/174MB of archives. | 06:36 |

| === ajmitch waits patiently | ||
| bmonty_laptop | i need to rebuild my chroot...there is too much crap in it now | 06:37 |
| LaserJock | bmonty_laptop: well, we have a target molecule that will be a true moleculear motor. That hasn't been made yet. I will be able to work on a molecuar "rotor". Right now I am working on a molecular "switch" that isn't very interesting | 06:38 |

| ajmitch | siretart: alive I think | 06:39 |

| siretart | ajmitch: in theory, yes. practically, I'm still wating for elmo :( | 06:40 |

| Diablo-D3 | <Diablo-D3> Why does universe contain helix-player? | 09:07 |
| Diablo-D3 | <Diablo-D3> or rather, why does it include the completely useless stripped down helix-player? | 09:07 |
| Diablo-D3 | crimsun: and yes, it is useless. | 09:07 |
| slomo | yes, completly useless | 09:07 |
| slomo | i can confirm this ;) | 09:08 |
| Diablo-D3 | you cant play realvideo with it | 09:08 |
| Amaranth | Diablo-D3: You can't play realvideo with upstream either. | 09:08 |
| slomo | you can play ogg vorbis/theora ;) | 09:08 |
| Amaranth | Diablo-D3: Helix Player + Real codecs == Realplayer 10 | 09:08 |
| Diablo-D3 | Amaranth: I wanst implying that it could.... | 09:09 |
| Amaranth | Someone wanted it and/or debian has it. | 09:09 |
| Diablo-D3 | Im saying helix-player is shit and it should be taken out of universe before someone accidently uses it. | 09:09 |
| Amaranth | So it's in universe. | 09:09 |
| Amaranth | No one is going to use it assuming it can do more. | 09:09 |
| slomo | Diablo-D3: why shall i be removed? it doesn't hurt | 09:09 |
| Amaranth | slomo: I agree we should remove you though. ;) | 09:10 |
| Diablo-D3 | slomo: because it doesnt do anything | 09:10 |
| Diablo-D3 | ubuntu shouldnt be packaging apps that are fundementally broken. | 09:10 |
| slomo | Amaranth: remove me? why? :P | 09:10 |
| Amaranth | Diablo-D3: Someone might find it useful. | 09:10 |
| Amaranth | slomo: (typo) | 09:10 |
| Diablo-D3 | Amaranth: not really, no. | 09:10 |
| crimsun | there's an explicit demarcation between helix-player and realplayer | 09:10 |
| slomo | Amaranth: hehe ok :) | 09:11 |
| Diablo-D3 | it cant do anything that an app already included with gnome or kde by default cant already do | 09:11 |
| Amaranth | Diablo-D3: Just because you don't like it or find a use for it doesn't mean it should be removed. | 09:11 |
| crimsun | The Description for helix-player explicitly states that it plays open media formats | 09:11 |
| Amaranth | Diablo-D3: Someone obviously thought it was useful enough to package. | 09:11 |
| crimsun | real.com's codecs are not open | 09:11 |
| slomo | and mp3/divx/wmv/etc are neither | 09:12 |
| crimsun | and fwiw, I use helix-player occasionally | 09:12 |
| Diablo-D3 | Amaranth: no, someone thought it was political enough to package. | 09:12 |
| crimsun | dude, universe exists for $random packages | 09:12 |
| Amaranth | *cough* | 09:12 |
| crimsun | this isn't like main where only a supported subset exist | 09:13 |
| Amaranth | Diablo-D3: If it was in main I could see your point. | 09:13 |
| Diablo-D3 | crimsun: that doesnt mean universe should be bloated. | 09:13 |
| Amaranth | err, yeah, what he said | 09:13 |
| crimsun | uh, bloat? wtf? | 09:13 |
| crimsun | universe is bloat by definition | 09:13 |
| Diablo-D3 | how so? | 09:13 |
| slomo | crimsun: what do you use helix for? :) | 09:13 |
| crimsun | slomo: testing aoss | 09:13 |
| Amaranth | Diablo-D3: There are lots of useless things in universe. | 09:13 |
| Diablo-D3 | you can't have a useful ubuntu desktop without universe. | 09:13 |
| bipolar | does anyone have a source for Mysql 5 Packages? I need them for a new development project. | 09:13 |
| slomo | Diablo-D3: universe == everything with good licenses ;) | 09:13 |
| Diablo-D3 | I think we need a new repo then. | 09:14 |
| Amaranth | literally everything | 09:14 |
| Amaranth | everything possible, anyway | 09:14 |
| Diablo-D3 | solar-system. | 09:14 |

| thierry | lbreakout2 is not in malone but it's I can download his source | 09:14 |
| Amaranth | Diablo-D3: Newbies don't get anything from universe unless someone tells them to. | 09:15 |
| Diablo-D3 | Amaranth: and newbies wonder why linux sucks. | 09:15 |
| Amaranth | Diablo-D3: Also, most of the things you want that aren't in main are probably in multiverse. | 09:15 |
| Amaranth | Diablo-D3: Now you're just trolling. Ignored. | 09:15 |

| === Tifa [n=alucard@cpc3-cove3-5-1-cust39.brhm.cable.ntl.com] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| Diablo-D3 | so either, a) main is incomplete, b) universe is too bloated. | 09:15 |
| slomo | and what's bad with universe beeing bloated? | 09:15 |
| crimsun | universe by definition is bloated. It _has_ to be. | 09:15 |
| Diablo-D3 | its impossible to have c) main is complete AND universe cant be bloated | 09:15 |
| crimsun | main is the "sane defaults" repo. | 09:16 |
| crimsun | universe is the "here's repo, go hang yourself" repo | 09:16 |

| Diablo-D3 | apt-cache madison `dpkg -l` | grep universe | 09:21 |
| Diablo-D3 | what about like that? | 09:21 |
| crimsun | thierry: I can choose lbreakout2 just fine in the source package selection of filing a ubuntu bug | 09:21 |
| Diablo-D3 | wait thats not right either | 09:21 |
| Diablo-D3 | aaargggh | 09:21 |
| thierry | crimsun : yeah but I want to find every bug for lbreakout2 and the link I sent you doesn't work | 09:23 |
| thierry | and is it normal that I can't request fix upstream for some packages? | 09:23 |

| Diablo-D3 | Heh. | 09:45 |
| Diablo-D3 | windows is a niche app, then | 09:45 |
| Amaranth | err | 09:45 |
| jamessan|work | hardly | 09:45 |
| Diablo-D3 | only people what to install apps and do stuff with it use windows, according to that logic. | 09:46 |
| Amaranth | windows has a built-in rosegarden equivalent that most of it's users actaully use? | 09:46 |
| Diablo-D3 | I'm trying to get a linux distro that people actually want to use. | 09:46 |
| jamessan|work | look at the number of people that use Windows versus the number of people that use ardour/rosegarden4 | 09:46 |
| Diablo-D3 | without having to fuck with shit | 09:46 |
| Amaranth | Diablo-D3: Lots of people "actually want to use" ubuntu as-is. | 09:46 |
| Diablo-D3 | Amaranth: not enough. | 09:46 |
| jamessan|work | heck, even the number of people that use linux vs the number of people that use ardour/rosegarden4 | 09:47 |
| Diablo-D3 | I want everyone in the world to run linux. | 09:47 |
| Amaranth | Diablo-D3: Moving everything to main isn't the answer. | 09:47 |
| jamessan|work | I'd never heard of those until you mentioned them | 09:47 |
| slomo | Diablo-D3: so why not move everyting from universe to main? :P | 09:47 |
| Diablo-D3 | slomo: except for all the crap in universe, thats not a bad idea. | 09:47 |
| Diablo-D3 | though, I think ubuntu will have to be issued on dvds at that point... | 09:47 |
| slomo | Diablo-D3: actually i only know ardour because of it's broken buildsystem... so it's probably crap? ;) | 09:47 |
| Diablo-D3 | no, ardour just has a fucked up build system | 09:47 |
| Diablo-D3 | its actually quite fun | 09:48 |
| slomo | Diablo-D3: it always depends on what you want what package is useful and what not... | 09:48 |
| Diablo-D3 | hrm. | 09:48 |
| Diablo-D3 | I wonder if morphix had the right idea. | 09:48 |
| Diablo-D3 | a modularized linux distro | 09:48 |
| slomo | hm? | 09:48 |
| Diablo-D3 | like, gnome wasnt in morphix's base, it was in a gnome module | 09:49 |
| Diablo-D3 | and kde wouldnt be in main/universe, it'd be in a kde module | 09:49 |
| Amaranth | Diablo-D3: Trust me, a majority of the people in the world are never going to use ardour and rosegarden. | 09:49 |
| Amaranth | Diablo-D3: Sounds like a bitch to maintain. | 09:49 |
| Diablo-D3 | ardour and rosegarden and friends would be in a sound-workstation module | 09:49 |
| Diablo-D3 | Amaranth: not really | 09:49 |
| Diablo-D3 | the modules are just repos. | 09:49 |
| slomo | Diablo-D3: so install ubuntu minimal and install what you want... maybe create a multimedia metapackage containing all multimedia packages etc... | 09:50 |
| ajmitch | Diablo-D3: remember that stuff is split into main & universe because of things like commercial support for main | 09:50 |
| Diablo-D3 | slomo: multimedia doesnt work | 09:50 |
| Diablo-D3 | slomo: mainly because there is no 'multimedia' | 09:50 |
| Diablo-D3 | why are so many kde packages in universe? | 09:51 |
| crimsun | so...make a multimedia-desktop package for multiverse | 09:51 |
| slomo | Diablo-D3: *sigh* s/multimedia/$yourneeds/ | 09:51 |
| Diablo-D3 | crimsun: screw it. | 09:51 |
| Diablo-D3 | all the years I've heard people bitch about debian and now ubuntu, I never quite understood what they meant | 09:52 |
| Diablo-D3 | I think I do now. | 09:52 |
| slomo | and i don't understand your problem... but well ;) | 09:52 |
| schweeb | plz end that there. | 09:53 |
| Amaranth | Diablo-D3: So many kde packages are in universe because if it's in main it means canonical is willing to provide commercial support for it and the ubuntu devs are willing to provide security fixes for 3 years. | 09:53 |
| schweeb | there's a difference between not meeting your needs and not meeting your needs OOB | 09:53 |
| phlaegel | slomo: I can't find a diff for that liferea fix. It's not in the changelog, and my cvs skills are, uh, lacking. Is it not possible to just update to rc3? | 09:54 |
| schweeb | if you're too lazy to make a metapackage | 09:54 |
| schweeb | make a shell script | 09:54 |
| schweeb | with "apt-get install blah1 blah2 blah3" | 09:54 |
| Diablo-D3 | schweeb: heh | 09:54 |
| Diablo-D3 | a metapackage wouldnt be so bad, maybe | 09:54 |
| slomo | phlaegel: sadly no... we could make a backport but that's probably not enough in this case | 09:54 |
| Diablo-D3 | except people would still need to enable universe to do it | 09:54 |
| schweeb | your point? | 09:54 |
| Diablo-D3 | maybe universe needs to be able to be easier enabled by noobs? | 09:54 |
| schweeb | it is easier enabled | 09:55 |
| schweeb | and well documented | 09:55 |
| schweeb | s/easier/easily/ | 09:55 |
| ajmitch | Diablo-D3: like in g-a-i, where it just asks you currently? | 09:55 |
| Diablo-D3 | can I double click something to enable it? | 09:55 |
| schweeb | umm | 09:55 |
| crimsun | I was just going to mention g-a-i | 09:55 |
| schweeb | not double click... | 09:55 |
| Diablo-D3 | what is g-a-i? | 09:55 |
| schweeb | double click would be retarded. | 09:55 |
| crimsun | Applications> Add Applications | 09:55 |
| crimsun | aka gnome-app-install | 09:55 |
| Diablo-D3 | ahh, I don't use gnome | 09:55 |
| crimsun | Adept then? | 09:56 |
| Diablo-D3 | last time I did use ubuntu's gnome, I didn't see such a thing | 09:56 |
| Diablo-D3 | is that new? | 09:56 |
| crimsun | it's new in Breezy. | 09:56 |
| Diablo-D3 | okay | 09:56 |
| === Diablo-D3 needs to get a new livecd to play with it | ||
| schweeb | the sources configurator allows you to pretty easily add universe | 09:57 |
| schweeb | and, it's documented in the wiki, and I'm fairly sure it's in the Ubuntu official howto as well | 09:57 |
| LaserJock | and it's a whole heck of a lot easier than Windows so I think the newbs can handle it ;-) | 09:58 |
| Diablo-D3 | but noobs dont know what wikis are | 09:58 |
| Diablo-D3 | nor do they know what official howtos are | 09:59 |
| Amaranth | do they know how to read firefox's home page? | 09:59 |
| Diablo-D3 | so unless its included on some easy to find manual defaultly installed, noobs dont know how to use it. | 09:59 |
| schweeb | it's linked from your frigging default ffox homepage. can't get much easier than that | 10:00 |
| LaserJock | Diablo-D3: dude, I went System->Help and then Ubuntu Starter Guide --> Installing Applications and it was there | 10:00 |
| schweeb | if someone's a n00b, and they're looking for a specific app, they're going to have to do SOME reading | 10:00 |
| Diablo-D3 | schweeb: that seems too difficult. | 10:01 |
| slomo | phlaegel: i can't find it too :( | 10:01 |
| LaserJock | Diablo-D3: it is way easier than Windows so I don't see how it is difficult for a newb | 10:01 |
| Diablo-D3 | does this starter guide require an internet connection? | 10:01 |

| xhaker | that why he doesn't know | 10:03 |

| xhaker | reading that page can really enlighten Diablo-D3 exponentially | 10:04 |
| slomo | hehe | 10:04 |
| Diablo-D3 | well | 10:05 |
| Diablo-D3 | for one | 10:05 |
| Diablo-D3 | that isnt in the ubuntu-artwork package. | 10:05 |
| Diablo-D3 | oh, the filename changed | 10:06 |
| Diablo-D3 | file:///usr/share/ubuntu-artwork/home/index-ubuntu.html | 10:06 |
| Diablo-D3 | schweeb: was that a typo, or did it really change? | 10:06 |
| LaserJock | Diablo-D3: it is in ubuntu-docs | 10:06 |
| schweeb | from hoary? it probably changed | 10:06 |
| Diablo-D3 | LaserJock: nope, I already have ubuntu-docs installed and the file didnt exist | 10:06 |
| schweeb | I'm running breezy | 10:06 |
| Diablo-D3 | I'm running dapper | 10:07 |
| Diablo-D3 | and thats the file dapper has | 10:07 |
| LaserJock | Diablo-D3: it's on breezy | 10:07 |
| ajmitch | ubuntu-docs: /usr/share/ubuntu-artwork/home/index.html | 10:07 |
| ajmitch | for breezy | 10:07 |
| Diablo-D3 | well, this leads to a problem | 10:07 |
| ajmitch | not that it matters | 10:07 |
| Diablo-D3 | what happens when someone updates to dapper? | 10:07 |
| Diablo-D3 | wont their firefox break? | 10:07 |
| LaserJock | Diablo-D3: anyway, it is in System--> Help too | 10:07 |
| schweeb | you can only help people so much before they have to learn how to help themselves. | 10:08 |
| Diablo-D3 | schweeb: then 90% of people shouldnt have computers | 10:08 |
| schweeb | 90% of people need to know how to help themselves. | 10:09 |
| schweeb | teach a man to fish... etc... | 10:09 |
| Diablo-D3 | And theres no way of teaching them how to do that, schweeb | 10:09 |
| Diablo-D3 | (I blame the schools, but whatever) | 10:09 |
| LaserJock | Diablo-D3: How hard is System --> Help --> Ubuntu Guide? They have to do the same thing in Windows? | 10:10 |
| Diablo-D3 | LaserJock: most windows users dont even know windows has a help system | 10:10 |
| schweeb | sounds like he wants wizards galore. wizards are asinine | 10:10 |
| Diablo-D3 | honostly, I don't know what I want. | 10:11 |
| schweeb | that's a user base problem, not a OS problem | 10:11 |
| Diablo-D3 | I started using linux when the 2.0.x kernel was popular | 10:11 |
| kjcole | Jumping right in: The problem is that Gates et al marketed a power tool as a toy. If you get an electric circular saw, you can create beautiful things, but reasonably intelligent people know they might need to study a bit before they slice off their fingers... | 10:11 |
| Diablo-D3 | back when slack 3 and debian slink were popular | 10:11 |
| schweeb | your point? | 10:12 |
| Diablo-D3 | I do everything in an xterm, schweeb | 10:12 |
| Diablo-D3 | and I know noobs wouldnt even know where to begin with an xterm. | 10:12 |

| kjcole | (Of course, I still find man pages to be not the most intuitively designed documentation...) | 10:13 |
| schweeb | you're pointing to an xterm, and we just pointed you towards system>help... I see no correlation | 10:13 |
| LaserJock | I thought Gates just stole everybody else's million dollar UI research ;P | 10:13 |
| Diablo-D3 | LaserJock: ;) | 10:13 |
| Diablo-D3 | schweeb: I'm saying I don't even understand how noobs work. | 10:13 |
| Diablo-D3 | I just know how linux works now isn't good enough | 10:14 |
| kjcole | Well I did say "et al". | 10:14 |
| LaserJock | Diablo-D3: why? | 10:14 |
| Diablo-D3 | it needs to be easier than windows | 10:14 |
| sistpoty | he, I've got a really fancy ui of new kvirc3 here, where you can click on colorful stuff and that. and still I'd prefer a manpage *g* | 10:14 |
| schweeb | I would put good money on the fact that my parents could just as easily use a gnome/ubuntu desktop as they could their current windows system | 10:14 |
| LaserJock | Diablo-D3: I think it is easier than Windows | 10:15 |
| schweeb | only problem is they can't install windows binaries | 10:15 |
| LaserJock | Diablo-D3: that is what I was trying to tell you | 10:15 |
| schweeb | LaserJock: I agree | 10:15 |
| schweeb | for the most part | 10:15 |
| Diablo-D3 | okay, we need an experiment | 10:15 |
| schweeb | UI consistancy in GNOME is years ahead. | 10:15 |
| Diablo-D3 | go find the stupidest most ignorant user you can find (ie, average windows user), and hand them an ubuntu live cd | 10:15 |
| bipolar | is anyone working on mysql 5 packages? I really need at least the query browser and administrator. | 10:15 |
| kjcole | Easier... A lot of what people consider "easy" about windows is simply what's been hammered into them. I attended a presentation comparing productivity of average people using a mouse versus the same people using a well-designed keystroke sequence. | 10:15 |
| LaserJock | In Windows I have to search the web for software and see if it is any good and make sure it doesn't have any viruses or spybots or whatever and that it is free | 10:16 |
| kjcole | Users BELIEVED themselves to be more productive with the mouse, and were surprised to learn otherwise. | 10:16 |

| LaserJock | bmonty_laptop: I'm thinking of setting up a SVN repository for holding all my journal articles, etc. for work and then I can get them from anywhere | 11:21 |
| mirak | bmonty_laptop: hem a dist-upgrade from breezy to dapper should update a load of stuff isn't it ? | 11:22 |
| mirak | it only suggest to download 20 packages actually | 11:22 |
| mirak | 20 megs | 11:22 |
| bmonty_laptop | LaserJock: I haven't tried that in awhile, but last time I did it wasn't an easy process | 11:23 |
| bmonty_laptop | acutally getting the svn repo going was easy, but getting remote access to it wasn't | 11:23 |
| bmonty_laptop | mirak: I don't know, I've never done a dist-upgrade to dapper, but there isn't a huge number of packages that have changed yet | 11:23 |
| bmonty_laptop | cya all later | 11:26 |
| sistpoty | cya bmonty_laptop: | 11:26 |
| mirak | is it sucide to use dapper ? | 11:40 |
