| lambert | What should happen with wiki pages which appear old and outdated? | 12:43 |
|---|---|---|
| lambert | Such as pages that appear to be release specific | 12:43 |
| lambert | such as instructions for Warty? | 12:43 |
| lambert | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/3Ware9xxxAsRoot | 12:43 |
| LaserJock | lambert: are they not needed for Dapper? | 01:11 |

| lambert | Not 100% sure on link I provided as it talks about raid and I can't test | 01:23 |
| lambert | But if it is outdated, should it be cleaned, removed from CategoryCleanup and is there an archive place | 01:24 |
| lambert | I noticed Category | 01:24 |
| lambert | Archive, what goes there? | 01:24 |

| LaserJock | lambert: I'm not sure. You might email the ubunt-doc list. It is an interesting issue. | 01:36 |

| jjesse | how do you rename a wiki page? for example w.u.c/adepthowto should read AdeptHowTo for correct CamelCase | 03:14 |
| mhz | jjesse: you can easily rename a wiki page BUT iirc, we've been asked to keep old pagename and redirect it new page name | 03:26 |
| mhz | instead | 03:26 |
| mhz | this way, users already subscribed to old page can still be notified about 'redirect' and users who have alrady added the bookmark of old page, still get to newpage | 03:26 |
| mhz | jjesse: please tell me if i explained itclearly ;) | 03:27 |
| mhz | \later tell Kaiser_Sleeps there is a how to in the wiki | 03:27 |
| mhz | .oO(ohh, we dont' have such feature in our bot) | 03:28 |

| theCore | I got a 7k diff file to send you | 08:45 |
| LaserJock | theCore: sweet | 08:46 |
| theCore | I'm not finished working on the intro section yet | 08:48 |
| theCore | i just maked the ``make'' intro and a little bit of ``autoconf'' | 08:48 |
| LaserJock | fine | 08:51 |

| LaserJock | theCore: did you send your diff yet? | 09:47 |
| theCore | no, I'm still working on it | 09:47 |
| LaserJock | ok, np | 09:48 |
| theCore | I could send you what I have, if you want | 09:48 |
| LaserJock | that's ok, send it to me when your done if you want. I don't care. I won't have time to work on the packaging guide for a while yet | 09:49 |
| theCore | yay! my diff is now 9k | 10:16 |
| LaserJock | cool | 10:17 |
| theCore | I send it to you | 10:20 |
| LaserJock | ok | 10:21 |
| === zenrox [n=zenrox@71.115.198.118] has joined #ubuntu-doc | ||
| theCore | LaserJock, sent | 10:27 |
| LaserJock | theCore: great, thanks | 10:27 |
| === bshumate [n=bshumate@ubuntu/member/bshumate] has joined #ubuntu-doc | ||
| LaserJock | theCore: ok, I got the diff. I will probably tweak it a little and add something for patch and diff and then commit it | 10:46 |
| theCore | LaserJock, np | 10:46 |
| theCore | LaserJock, ping me when you commit it | 10:50 |
| LaserJock | theCore: are you subscribed to ubuntu-doc-commits ? That is the easiest way to know if I've commited something | 10:55 |
| LaserJock | theCore: It might be tomorrow by the time I get to it. Work has just increased and I got a new iMac to set up etc. | 10:56 |
| theCore | ok, then I will monitor -commit | 11:08 |
| LaserJock | theCore: I can ping you too but I didn't know if you knew about -commit | 11:09 |
| theCore | how the iMac is, compared to Ubuntu? | 11:11 |
| LaserJock | I haven't been able to set it up yet. I have to get a bunch of other work done first :( | 11:12 |
| LaserJock | but the box is sitting right next to me | 11:13 |
| LaserJock | :( | 11:13 |
| LaserJock | but it is one of the new Intel iMacs so I can't put Ubuntu on it. | 11:14 |
| theCore | does the CPU is a x86 ? | 11:25 |
| LaserJock | yep | 11:27 |
| LaserJock | I think anyway. It is a dual core | 11:27 |
| theCore | maybe, Ubuntu i386 will work on it | 11:28 |
| LaserJock | no | 11:28 |
| LaserJock | it doesn't have a BIOS | 11:28 |
| LaserJock | it has something called EFI instead and it is not compatible with Ubuntu yet | 11:29 |
| LaserJock | plus there isn't a graphics driver for the video card I don't think | 11:29 |
| theCore | the number of high-end users switching the Mac is quite impressive | 11:31 |
| theCore | Apple is really getting the low and the high end market | 11:32 |
| LaserJock | our lab has completly switched to Macs for desktop use | 11:38 |
| LaserJock | Apple has really gotten into the science/academic market. In my department I think Apple has the majority of desktop computers. | 11:39 |
| crimsun | due to their big server push? | 11:40 |
| LaserJock | laptops mostly | 11:40 |
| crimsun | interesting | 11:40 |
| LaserJock | it is the "in" thing for profs | 11:40 |
| LaserJock | I just got back from a conference and very few of the presenters didn't use a Mac laptop | 11:40 |
| crimsun | yeah, it's that way here, too | 11:41 |
| crimsun | I'm in the minority now, heh, with Ubuntu running on the X41-2527 | 11:41 |
| LaserJock | one of the computational groups uses a lot of Mac servers but they are going more to clusters of AMD64s | 11:41 |
| crimsun | yeah, amd64s are a lot more cost-effective | 11:42 |
| LaserJock | but the reason my boss went to Apple was the *nix base. He can do most of the linux things he used to do but also have MS Office and Acrobat, etc. | 11:43 |
| LaserJock | and money isn't a problem because it all comes from grants anyway | 11:43 |
| === Kyral [n=kyral@ubuntu/member/kyral] has joined #ubuntu-doc | ||
| theCore | However, the problem with Mac it is that they have many unknown holes which wait to be discovered. There are rumours which indicate that MacOS X has many holes like Windows | 11:46 |
| LaserJock | theCore: but since many of the people are moving from Windows to Mac they are used to it ;-) | 11:47 |
| theCore | lol, yeah | 11:47 |
| theCore | personally, I wouldn't switch to a Mac, even if I find them sexy | 11:48 |
| LaserJock | well, I didn't have much choice in the matter | 11:49 |
| LaserJock | but I think I'll like it for work | 11:50 |
