Burgundaviabon soir, robitaille 08:54
robitailleallo Burgundavia 08:54
robitaillefinally finished installing Flight-1 on my laptop08:55
BurgundaviaI keep running out of cds right when I need them08:55
Burgundaviagot to go buy some tomorrow08:55
robitailleyeah...today i dl/burned flight-1 for ubuntu/kubuntu, and downloaded breezy/edubuntu to install for the kids08:56
BurgundaviaI see08:56
robitailleI guess we'll have to bite the bullet and reorganize the wiki pages for the laptop team soon08:57
BurgundaviaI should do it08:58
BurgundaviaI will do so tomorrow08:58
robitailleI want to try to install edubuntu tomorrow.  I'm getting fed up of maintaining a win98 partition only for the few games they play :)08:59
robitaillethey = the oldest 2 kids09:00
Madpilotrobitaille: are you going to try to get their Windows games running under WINE?09:00
robitaillenot initially.  I just want them to discover  a few new games in linux besides the window-only ones they borrow from the library09:02
BurgundaviaI need to turn my workplace on gcompris and the rest of the Edubuntu games suite09:02
robitailleat their age, it has to be simple;   running wine for their game, which usually include mounting CDs is probably not simple enough09:03
robitaillewill be right back...testing the sleep mode 09:06
Burgundaviaok, next installfest planning email away09:06
=== Burgundavia enjoys stiring to pot sometimes
MadpilotI think you mean "the pot"?09:08
Burgundaviaya09:08
robitaillewell, it was a success: like you wrote, 100% success rate :)09:08
Burgundaviathat is what I said in my email09:08
Burgundaviathe installfest was a complete success, it was just very very small09:08
Madpilothow much of a problem was Ubuntu64 on an AMD64 laptop? Did everything "just work"(tm)?09:09
robitaillethe problem is that the people you want to bring in an install fest are generally not the ones subscribing to the vlug mailing list... or scanning their web site09:09
Burgundaviayes09:09
Burgundavianot a problem except that the machine refused to boot X09:09
Burgundaviawith the ati or radeon driver09:09
Burgundaviavesa worked09:09
Burgundaviadidn't get a chance to try fglrx on it or r30009:10
Madpilotfglrx isn't on the CD, is it?09:11
Burgundavianope09:12
Madpilotno internet connection in the room?09:12
Burgundavianope09:12
Madpilotmeh09:12
Madpilotfor next time: get a net connection, somehow09:12
Burgundaviauvic has wireless but we would have needed to setup ndiswarpper, etc.09:12
Burgundaviawe need wired routers09:13
Madpilotwireless to wired?09:13
Burgundaviarobitaille, what do you think I should do with the ancient laptop testing team stuff?09:13
Burgundaviadrop them entirely or move them onto a seperate page09:14
Burgundavia?09:14
BurgundaviaMadpilot, vlug brings a wireless router. We can daisy chain off that09:14
robitailleBurgundavia,  I kept mines in a subpage,  OldReports  or something like that09:14
Madpilotdo I report Natuilus bugs to launchpad or bugzilla.u.c?09:16
BurgundaviaMadpilot, either09:17
Madpilotk09:17
Madpilothttps://launchpad.net/products/nautilus/+bug/465409:28
MadpilotBurgundavia: do you have a fresh, un-fiddled-with Breezy install on your laptop?09:29
Burgundavianope09:29
Burgundaviabut I will have a dapper tomorrow09:29
Madpilotmeh. I'm too fond of config tweaking, I can't remember what I've fiddled with in Gnome's options ;)09:29
robitaillewith the laptop testing,  I have learned to like the default option since my main partition I work from is the one I keep reinstalling on top09:30
