| cbx33 | Burgundavia, what is left to do? | 12:25 |
|---|---|---|
| cbx33 | CSS | 12:25 |
| cbx33 | is that it? | 12:25 |
| Burgundavia | css makes the html look pretty | 12:26 |
| cbx33 | yeh | 12:26 |
| Burgundavia | I am not a css expert | 12:26 |
| === cbx33 is | ||
| cbx33 | :p | 12:26 |
| Burgundavia | cbx33, what is your plan for pdf? | 12:29 |
| cbx33 | Burgundavia, how can I view the html wit hthe CSS attached | 12:29 |
| cbx33 | I ran a make in the edubuntu directory | 12:29 |
| cbx33 | but it doesn't link in the css to the html is that correct? | 12:29 |
| cbx33 | Burgundavia, remember the mockups at the bottom of the original page? | 12:30 |
| cbx33 | I was going to make them up like that in scribus | 12:30 |
| Burgundavia | ok, that basically means you are going to need to fork the doc | 12:30 |
| cbx33 | yes | 12:31 |
| Burgundavia | which sucks | 12:31 |
| cbx33 | I can't keep them up todate | 12:31 |
| cbx33 | sorry Burgundavia but if it's going to print I guess it should look the part | 12:31 |
| cbx33 | unless, I can lay it out, but make it put certain text in certain places? | 12:31 |
| Burgundavia | yepo | 12:31 |
| cbx33 | tbh thought, this document will be pretty static until the next release | 12:31 |
| Burgundavia | ok, then I think we need to have a quick rethink | 12:32 |
| cbx33 | only things like spelling mistakes etc | 12:32 |
| Burgundavia | what do we actually need | 12:32 |
| Burgundavia | ? | 12:32 |
| cbx33 | right | 12:32 |
| Burgundavia | we need content for the website | 12:32 |
| Burgundavia | we also need some sort of printed thing | 12:32 |
| cbx33 | yes | 12:32 |
| cbx33 | there's no reason why they can't ste from the same doc | 12:32 |
| cbx33 | ste/stem | 12:32 |
| Burgundavia | not really | 12:32 |
| Burgundavia | there is a big issue in that print is very different from the web | 12:33 |
| Burgundavia | trying to do both from the same is going to end in tears | 12:33 |
| cbx33 | tbh, once something is printed ie hardcopy it's a permanent fork | 12:33 |
| cbx33 | Burgundavia, why do yo usay that? | 12:33 |
| Burgundavia | ok, then, here is my plan | 12:33 |
| Burgundavia | drop the docbook | 12:33 |
| Burgundavia | migrate what we have to the edubuntu.org website | 12:33 |
| Burgundavia | we also fork and move it into scribus | 12:34 |
| Burgundavia | the scribus stuff goes into the repo | 12:34 |
| Burgundavia | the website stuff stays on the website | 12:34 |
| cbx33 | sounds good to me | 12:34 |
| cbx33 | I forget why we moved it to svn in docbook anyway | 12:34 |
| Burgundavia | however, lets do this after release | 12:34 |
| cbx33 | someone suggested it and it was a good idea | 12:34 |
| cbx33 | well the printing will def take palce after release | 12:35 |
| Burgundavia | lets release with at least something in html with css for dapper and work on the scribus thing in june | 12:35 |
| Burgundavia | does that sound like a plan | 12:35 |
| cbx33 | Burgundavia, it wouldn't take me that long to get it into drupal? | 12:35 |
| cbx33 | I could edubuntu.org it before june | 12:35 |
| Burgundavia | sure, after we freeze it | 12:36 |
| Burgundavia | anyway, I have to do some gardening | 12:36 |
| Burgundavia | I will be back on tomorrow | 12:36 |
| cbx33 | ok sounds good.....so when are we gonna freeze? - I'll make a quick proof now | 12:36 |
| cbx33 | I'm sure Laser_away will do a proof | 12:36 |
| cbx33 | If all looks good I'll freeze tomorrow | 12:36 |
| cbx33 | sound good to you? | 12:37 |
| cbx33 | once frozen I'll ship it out for people who want to translate too | 12:37 |
| cbx33 | I know there are severa | 12:37 |
| cbx33 | l | 12:37 |
| cbx33 | sound good Burgundavia ? | 12:38 |

| Burgundavia | cbx33, I think we are ready to freeze | 01:04 |
| Burgundavia | cbx33, for translations, we can use rosetta | 01:05 |
| Burgundavia | no need ot ship it | 01:05 |
| cbx33 | ok e4xcellent | 01:06 |
| cbx33 | so | 01:06 |
| cbx33 | shall i create the product in LP | 01:06 |
| cbx33 | for the ESA? | 01:06 |
| Burgundavia | we just need to spell and grammar check it | 01:06 |
| Burgundavia | no, it can go under the edubuntu-docs one | 01:06 |
| cbx33 | ah ok | 01:07 |
| cbx33 | but that doesn't mean it'll be added to that package does it? | 01:07 |
| Burgundavia | I think it should be | 01:07 |
| Burgundavia | it might be too late | 01:07 |
| cbx33 | a) it is too late | 01:08 |
| cbx33 | b) it's too big | 01:08 |
| Burgundavia | no worries | 01:08 |
| cbx33 | Burgundavia, this is odd | 01:12 |
| Burgundavia | hmm? | 01:12 |
| cbx33 | sorry that was meant to be highvoltage this is odd | 01:12 |
| cbx33 | :p | 01:12 |
| cbx33 | the css theme is working :S | 01:13 |
| cbx33 | on my machine | 01:13 |
| cbx33 | Burgundavia, in that case, how are we going to add it to rosetta? | 01:13 |
| cbx33 | I'm gonna proof it now | 01:13 |
| Burgundavia | we need to generate pots from the docbook | 01:14 |
| cbx33 | pots? | 01:14 |
| Burgundavia | do you know about gettext? | 01:15 |

| Burgundavia | hmm, take a look nome | 06:17 |
| Burgundavia | s/nome/now | 06:17 |
| Burgundavia | ok, that was a odd typo | 06:17 |
| LaserJock | cool, there are a few typos, but it is starting to pop a bit | 06:20 |
| Burgundavia | you think I should bold the other app names as well? (the k-ones, etc.) | 06:21 |
| LaserJock | Burgundavia: are you using bold or <application>? and yes I think there should be something setting app names apart | 06:21 |
| Burgundavia | hmm, I guess I should use application | 06:22 |
| Burgundavia | just a sec, I will fix that | 06:22 |
| LaserJock | Graphics and Sound & Video have a couple problems | 06:23 |
| Burgundavia | ok, what are they | 06:23 |
| LaserJock | with Graphics, you have "diagrams" capitalized | 06:23 |
| Burgundavia | got that | 06:24 |
| LaserJock | and the first sentence of Sound & Video isn't right | 06:24 |
| Burgundavia | just caught that | 06:25 |
| LaserJock | and I think I mispelled excellent in there, or maybe not | 06:25 |

| Burgundavia | ESA | 06:25 |
| crimsun | sorry, url? | 06:25 |
| LaserJock | no url yet | 06:26 |
| Burgundavia | currently in the doc team repo, but an old version can be seen at doc.ubuntu.com/edubuntu/SchoolAdvocacy/ | 06:26 |
| Burgundavia | http://doc.ubuntu.com/edubuntu/school-advocacy/C/school-advocacy.html | 06:26 |
| crimsun | in trunk or dapper? | 06:26 |
| Burgundavia | trunk | 06:27 |
| Burgundavia | going to add application to rest of the app names | 06:27 |
| Burgundavia | LaserJock, did you see cbx33 and myself chatting about the future of ESA | 06:27 |
| Burgundavia | ? | 06:27 |
| LaserJock | no | 06:28 |
| LaserJock | I haven't been on IRC much this weekend | 06:28 |
| Burgundavia | we are going to release with this version in the repos, then split the doc post dapper | 06:28 |
| crimsun | are you guys seeking content and/or structural review? | 06:28 |
| Burgundavia | crimsun, any feedback is good | 06:28 |
| crimsun | <para>This is a School Advocacy pamphlet for &distro-rev;</para> <-- "This" needs to be followed by a noun. | 06:29 |
| LaserJock | Burgundavia: split? | 06:29 |
| crimsun | "Edubuntu is designed to allow a teacher or network administrator to be able to setup" <-- drop the "to be able" | 06:29 |
| Burgundavia | crimsun, can you generate a patch for us? | 06:30 |
| Burgundavia | LaserJock, one version to the website and one version morphed into scribus, then the docbook version dropped | 06:30 |
| crimsun | I can, but I can't guarantee it'll be pushed out until tomorrow evening at earliest | 06:30 |
| crimsun | I'll add to my TODO | 06:30 |
| Burgundavia | no worries | 06:31 |
| Burgundavia | the doc is currently is a little bit of flux | 06:31 |
| LaserJock | Burgundavia: which website? edubuntu.org? | 06:31 |
| Burgundavia | yep | 06:31 |
| LaserJock | sounds good | 06:32 |
| LaserJock | hmm, what about a bzr repo for it? | 06:32 |
| Burgundavia | well, once it is in scribus, it can back into the svn repo | 06:34 |
| Burgundavia | I generally like the idea of one bzr repo per doc for post dapper | 06:34 |
| LaserJock | yeah | 06:34 |
| LaserJock | I'm starting to wonder how the doc team is going to handle edgy WRT having docs from so many different projects | 06:34 |
| Burgundavia | yes | 06:35 |
| LaserJock | I setup that test bzr repo, but I'm don't think bzr is ready for our present use case | 06:37 |
| Burgundavia | the issue with one repo per doc is the build chain | 06:38 |
| Burgundavia | it suddenly becomes very very complicated | 06:38 |
| LaserJock | I would like to see they docs group seperated by project (i.e. ubuntu, kubuntu, edubuntu,xubuntu) and then have generic, and then teamstuff/common | 06:40 |
| LaserJock | it seems weird to have people who are only interested in edubuntu docs, for instance, download the whole repo | 06:40 |
| Burgundavia | currently, I think svn works very well for us | 06:40 |
| Burgundavia | the only issue is control of the repo | 06:41 |
| Burgundavia | I would like to see this pass to mdke | 06:41 |
| LaserJock | yes, that is an issue | 06:41 |
| Burgundavia | I think it would be better to find a webeditor like docudo | 06:41 |
| crimsun | it would make sense to delegate, since there're already separate CCs for Edubuntu and Kubuntu | 06:42 |
| Burgundavia | the thing is, the build chain is the same and it makes sense to keep them one | 06:42 |
| Burgundavia | the doc team currently works quite well | 06:43 |
| LaserJock | well, Mark has already asked elmo to do it but I think it is fairly low priority on elmo's list at this point | 06:43 |
| Burgundavia | elmo is currently holding the debconf structure together with ductape and spit, so... | 06:43 |
| LaserJock | supposedly anybody who is a member of the doc team LP team will have svn access | 06:44 |
| LaserJock | so we can control it that way | 06:44 |
| Burgundavia | that will be good | 06:45 |
| LaserJock | I agree that the current setup works well for us for the most part, but I'm worried about dialup users for instance | 06:45 |
| Burgundavia | that is an issue | 06:45 |
| Burgundavia | but there really isn't any getting around that | 06:45 |
| LaserJock | a web editor would help, wouldn't it? | 06:45 |
| === neurogeek [n=neurogee@201.211.8.204] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| Burgundavia | yes | 06:46 |
| Burgundavia | I think a webeditor would solve most of our issues | 06:46 |
| Burgundavia | it doesn't even need to be fancy | 06:46 |
| LaserJock | gosh, just having a plain text editor that has some sort of login and can interface to the svn repo would be great | 06:47 |
| Burgundavia | hmm, maybe a communal box we could ssh into would be better | 06:47 |
| Burgundavia | because the web issue brings up the "testing it in yelp" problem | 06:48 |
| LaserJock | doc.ubuntu.com ;-) | 06:48 |
| LaserJock | true | 06:48 |
| LaserJock | it should at least run validate.sh on it | 06:48 |
| Burgundavia | for now, I intend to ssh into my home machine and use that | 06:48 |
| LaserJock | I ssh into ~ 5 different boxes,including doc.ubuntu.com, to edit | 06:49 |
| LaserJock | it gets to be a pain | 06:49 |
| Burgundavia | why do you ssh into doc? | 06:50 |
| LaserJock | sometimes I use it to build the ubuntu-docs .deb | 06:50 |
| Burgundavia | crimsun, wow, that defendguin guy is persistant, no? | 06:50 |
| LaserJock | Burgundavia: #ubuntu ? | 06:50 |
| Burgundavia | no #ubuntu-laptop | 06:51 |
| LaserJock | does Diablo-D3 still hang out there? | 06:51 |
| Burgundavia | thankfully not | 06:51 |
| Burgundavia | I had forgotten about him | 06:52 |
| LaserJock | sorry for reminding you ;-) | 06:53 |

| ogra | finally :) | 11:08 |
| Burgundavia | lol | 11:08 |
| Burgundavia | anyway, right now I have to totter off to bed. It is late here | 11:08 |
| cbx33 | w00t hi ogra | 11:09 |
| cbx33 | how was your rest? | 11:09 |
| ogra | relaxing | 11:09 |
| ogra | but not half way preparing for the amount of work waiting for me today | 11:10 |
| cbx33 | aww man I'm sorry | 11:10 |
| ogra | (72 new bugs, half of them has to be solved *today*) | 11:10 |
| cbx33 | we finished ESA, as insiginificant as that is | 11:10 |
| ogra | (aside from keeping the CD in shape) | 11:10 |
| cbx33 | and I took a look at the CSS theme for edubuntu.org, but I couldn't see a problem with it, ie, it works on my computer/drual install | 11:11 |
| ogra | highvoltage, is working on ti since thursday afaik | 11:11 |
| cbx33 | I've been in contact with him | 11:12 |
| cbx33 | I'll be able to fully test RC tomorrow | 11:13 |
| cbx33 | I'm not at work today | 11:13 |
| cbx33 | ogra, oh yes, sorry to add another to your list, are we aware of images not lading from the educa server tests? | 11:15 |
| ogra | educa server tests ?? | 11:17 |
| ogra | whats that ? | 11:17 |
| cbx33 | when you go into educa, you can choose test that are already made | 11:17 |
| cbx33 | and it connects up to a server | 11:17 |
| cbx33 | two I tested were colour identification | 11:17 |
| cbx33 | and shape identification | 11:18 |
| cbx33 | both of which used images, but none were displayed | 11:18 |
| ogra | i dont even know what educa should be ? | 11:18 |
| cbx33 | ok | 11:18 |
| cbx33 | I'll double check it on the RC | 11:18 |
| ogra | is that in universe ? | 11:18 |
| cbx33 | Keduca ? | 11:19 |
| ogra | ah | 11:19 |
| ogra | please tell me the full name | 11:19 |
| ogra | :) | 11:19 |
| cbx33 | sorry ogra | 11:19 |
| cbx33 | it's still early for me | 11:19 |

| cbx33 | I'll bbiab | 11:20 |
| highvoltage | ogra: yeah, the idea was to do a new theme from scratch | 11:24 |
| highvoltage | ogra: but cbx33 got the old theme to work with drupal, so we'll do that instead | 11:24 |
| ogra | thats fine | 11:24 |
| highvoltage | ogra: btw, did you see someone put their name up for edubuntu membership? | 11:24 |
| ogra | only for the testers team | 11:25 |
| highvoltage | i wonder if he's applying, or if it was an accident. do you know kaging1202? | 11:25 |
| ogra | nope | 11:25 |
| highvoltage | i got an email for membership too... | 11:25 |

| highvoltage | oops, sorry about that | 11:25 |
| highvoltage | ogra: it's strange, your e-mail address isn't in the To: field | 11:26 |
| highvoltage | sorry, it is "hostmaster@grawert.net" | 11:27 |
| JaneW | that's oliver | 11:27 |
| ogra | yep | 11:27 |
| ogra | ogra@ubuntu.com somehow produces mail loops | 11:27 |
| ogra | so i had to use my non official one | 11:28 |
| jsgotangco | highvoltage: that's a local here, he emailed me over the weekend saying he has doco | 11:31 |
| ogra | yeah, we have 3 applicants there currently | 11:32 |
| ogra | freeflying is already ubuntu member ... | 11:32 |
| ogra | trhe other two have no wikipage at all | 11:32 |
| jsgotangco | can we whitelist ubuntu members? | 11:33 |
| jsgotangco | or would your rather have them present themseleves as well | 11:33 |
| ogra | JaneW, what about skipping this weeks meeting ? (i'm already chatting too much again here while i should only be in -devel) | 11:33 |
| ogra | jsgotangco, we should at least have some feedback why they explicitly want edubuntu membership and what they want to do to participate | 11:34 |

| cbx33 | hi jsgotangco | 11:47 |
| cbx33 | hi highvoltage | 11:47 |
| cbx33 | highvoltage, I assume you got my mail :p | 11:48 |
| jsgotangco | hey | 11:48 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: yep | 11:50 |
| cbx33 | highvoltage, funny that I didn't have to do anything | 11:51 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: i even respondend to it on irc ;) | 11:51 |
| cbx33 | jsgotangco, ESA has been officially frozen :p | 11:51 |
| cbx33 | ah shucks, but I wasn't there | 11:51 |
| highvoltage | ah | 11:51 |
| cbx33 | highvoltage, are you ok with me creating a page for ESA on edubuntu.org | 11:51 |
| highvoltage | i'll try it too, i hope it's not some php problem. hopefully i'll just install it clean again and it will just work | 11:52 |
| jsgotangco | cbx33: the work now is to register these edubuntu docs in Yelp | 11:52 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: yep, that's fine | 11:52 |
| cbx33 | jsgotangco, how do we go about that? - explain more :p | 11:52 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: but don't call it ESA, please | 11:52 |
| cbx33 | of course not | 11:52 |
| cbx33 | :p | 11:52 |
| highvoltage | calling an doc which purpose is to be an advocacy doc is very dodgy :) | 11:52 |
| jsgotangco | file:///usr/share/scrollkeeper/doc/writing_scrollkeeper_omf_files/C/writing_scrollkeeper_omf_files.xml | 11:53 |
| cbx33 | Corey and I had a chat about where to take it, we decided probably to fork it here put the scribus versions in the svn repo | 11:53 |
| cbx33 | and make the drupal pages | 11:53 |
| cbx33 | I can mock up one of those now possibly, the omf i mean | 11:55 |
| jsgotangco | just follow the samples and use it in your install | 11:56 |
| cbx33 | jsgotangco, whoo, back up, install? | 11:56 |
| === cbx33 is still new to all this doccing stuff | ||
| jsgotangco | naw you can create a new scrollkeeper db | 11:56 |
| cbx33 | now I'm really confused :p | 11:57 |
| jsgotangco | just read the scrollkeeper manual its all there | 11:57 |
| cbx33 | ok | 11:57 |
| jsgotangco | the xml needs to be registered in the help system | 11:57 |
| jsgotangco | once ogra uploads edubuntu-docs it should be magic | 11:57 |
| ogra | edubuntu-docs is in the archive sine more than a month | 11:58 |
| ogra | *since | 11:58 |
| ogra | or even longer | 11:58 |

| === jsgotangco haven't even seen the about edubuntu doc in yelp | ||

| jsgotangco | wahhh you're right | 11:59 |
| jsgotangco | its in universe :D | 11:59 |
| ogra | the default homepage has a (commented) link to the gettingstarted guide, so if it gets included i can just enable the link ... since we dont have gettingstarted in yelp format | 12:00 |

| dave-YL | fine | 12:02 |
| ogra | jsgotangco, you did an xml of gettingstarted ? | 12:02 |
| cbx33 | good good | 12:02 |
| ogra | jsgotangco, where do i find that ? | 12:02 |
| jsgotangco | ogra: no just "about edubuntu" | 12:02 |
| cbx33 | ogra, did you say edubuntu-docs isn't going into the CD? | 12:02 |
| ogra | ah | 12:02 |
| jsgotangco | its 3 yelp pages | 12:03 |
| ogra | cbx33, depending on space | 12:03 |
| ogra | jsgotangco, yes, i got it here | 12:03 |
| cbx33 | if it doesn't go on CD, can ESA go into it, or is it too late? | 12:03 |
| jsgotangco | i got the annoucement in my draft, will be putting it in a wiki later | 12:03 |
| ogra | cbx33, thats a bit late, since the possibility that we include it still exists | 12:03 |
| cbx33 | ok that's fine, just asking | 12:03 |
| ogra | i'm really fighting with bytes here | 12:03 |
| cbx33 | i know | 12:04 |
| cbx33 | that's why I'm not fighting for inclusion | 12:04 |
| ogra | (not even kilobytes anymore) | 12:04 |
| jsgotangco | cbx33: we got to save some more space with some pngs in u-m being crushed :D | 12:04 |

| ogra | if thats really the case and all these (80) uploads of other packages didnt increase the size, all is fine | 12:05 |

| highvoltage | mhz: JaneW says the summit lasts until the 23rd? | 04:21 |
| mhz | highvoltage: tue-wed? | 04:21 |
| mhz | yes, I know. That is why I sent the last email stating we'll have extra meetings in order to make it happen for 27 and 28 th :D | 04:22 |
| mhz | highvoltage: then, I guess you'll be able to come? | 04:22 |
| mhz | highvoltage: Luke can't on those dates either :( | 04:23 |
| mhz | highvoltage: now I am resgistered to freenode ... sorry, I saw no PM's | 04:24 |
| highvoltage | mhz: yep | 04:25 |

| mhz | lol | 04:27 |
| highvoltage | mhz: ok, busy filling in leave forms now, will add those dates ;) | 04:28 |
| mhz | highvoltage: thx. Is your resume ready? | 04:29 |

| spacey | xen is quite nice | 04:32 |
| spacey | i think | 04:32 |
| spacey | i hope the intergration in ubuntu is not to horrible | 04:32 |
| ogra | so where is the edubuntu-testing team ? did anybody do any tests yet ? | 04:33 |
| === yvesC [n=yves@zenobi.ycombe.net] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| ogra | Kulissenschieber, yvesC is gcompris upstream developer, he probably knows whats going on with your tuxpaint bug (did you file it already ?) | 04:35 |
| highvoltage | ogra: gcompris is on the testing list, but seems like no one encountered it before | 04:38 |
| ogra | highvoltage, the two sentences were unrelated :) | 04:39 |
| ogra | i need CD test results today | 04:39 |
| highvoltage | ogra: i've opened tuxpaint from gcompris a while back, and it worked (was with flight 2, iirc), but seems like it came in since that | 04:39 |
| ogra | as many as possible | 04:39 |
| highvoltage | ogra: does it have to be from beta2? | 04:39 |
| ogra | it has to be from the current build | 04:40 |
| highvoltage | daily build? | 04:40 |
| ogra | which will be locked completely from tomorrow on | 04:40 |
| ogra | yep | 04:40 |
| ogra | dont test the i386 liveCd yet, its broken | 04:40 |
| highvoltage | should i mail the list for a call for testing, or do you want to do that? | 04:40 |
| Kulissenschieber | ogra: no, i did not file it yet - don't know how - not much time (gotta work) - and it's not so easy for me to explain in english (german guy) - gonna try it tonight, when i'm back home | 04:41 |
| ogra | i thought that nearly everyone agreed in last the meeting to help testing today would be enough *sigh* | 04:41 |
| ogra | Kulissenschieber, i'm also in edubuntu-de but without a patch i wont have time to fix it though the nightshift i apparently have to do due to lack of testers | 04:42 |
| ogra | so the only chance for now is to file a bug and with luck upstream has an idea that i can upload quickly | 04:42 |
| jsgotangco | errr what happened here? | 04:44 |
| jsgotangco | ogra: you need a quick test on something? | 04:45 |
| ogra | jsgotangco, no quick tests anymore | 04:45 |
| ogra | we're preparing the release ... i need full tests :) | 04:45 |
| jsgotangco | yes | 04:46 |
| jsgotangco | do you need it now? | 04:46 |
| jsgotangco | i only tried today's amd64 as a workstation | 04:46 |
| ogra | did that work ? | 04:47 |
| jsgotangco | yes | 04:51 |
| ogra | from text install or liveCD ? | 04:51 |
| jsgotangco | text install | 04:52 |
| ogra | thanks ! :) | 04:52 |
| jsgotangco | its the least that i can do, i don't have that much bandwidth nor machines to try out an ltsp setup | 04:53 |
| jsgotangco | (time even) | 04:53 |
| ogra | that'd be cool, even you wont be able to test it without amd64 client :) | 04:53 |
| jsgotangco | i have 2 amd64 machines but the constraint really is bandwidth :) | 04:54 |
| ogra | you can run: mount /cdrom && sudo apt-get injstall ltsp-server-standalone && sudo ltsp-build-client --mirrot file:///cdrom | 04:56 |
| ogra | s/injstall/install | 04:56 |
| highvoltage | s/morrot/mirror too :) | 05:00 |

| highvoltage | mhz: keep in mind that i only got your email this morning after being out of office the entire last week | 05:40 |
| highvoltage | mhz: but i'll get it to you asap (working on it now) | 05:40 |
| mhz | neurogeek: any chance you can make strusberg to come over? Or ask him to please answer my last emails? | 05:41 |
| neurogeek | mhz, hello man.. | 05:41 |
| mhz | highvoltage: yup, mon I know you are not wasting your time, no worries. I had to "bug you" anyways, for the record :D | 05:41 |
| neurogeek | mhz, i don't think so.. because im not around :s | 05:41 |
| mhz | neurogeek: is latinux and your project going ok? | 05:42 |
| mhz | neurogeek: oooh, no longer with him? | 05:42 |

| jsgotangco | our keynote speaker mr. jonathan carter | 05:44 |
| jsgotangco | lol | 05:44 |
| highvoltage | mhz: i don't really have an up to date one, would my linux / education work experience be enough | 05:44 |
| mhz | highvoltage: nope, as long as it is a CV format | 05:45 |
| === highvoltage stares at jsgotangco | ||
| highvoltage | jsgotangco: are you making fun of me!? ;) | 05:45 |
| mhz | highvoltage: sure + the foundation one? | 05:45 |
| mhz | jsgotangco: speaker + member dejavu | 05:45 |
| mhz | oh, member twice, i mean | 05:45 |
| jsgotangco | yes, as ajmitch has made fun of me before when i got invited to speak in south korea | 05:45 |
| highvoltage | jsgotangco: ok, but then i reserve the right to make fun of someone else again, which just might be you | 05:46 |
| jsgotangco | (actually I was a jdub replacement) | 05:46 |
| === highvoltage met jdub last week | ||
| jsgotangco | highvoltage: nah, but YOU got invited to talk, i was a replacement heh | 05:46 |

| jsgotangco | chile is like hmm 15 hours, when i get there, you better make sure some fine virgins are available | 05:49 |
| === jsgotangco couldn't believe he just said that | ||
| highvoltage | jsgotangco: lol | 05:49 |
| mhz | jsgotangco: hehehehe, are you running on "low battery" ? | 05:49 |
| mhz | or too much idel time? | 05:50 |
| mhz | idle | 05:50 |
| jsgotangco | mhz: more like too little time to be idle | 05:50 |
| mhz | oooh | 05:50 |
| mhz | that's because you drink too much :D | 05:50 |
| jsgotangco | highvoltage: i think we should spec out for eft how to ease up some of ogra's work on edubuntu | 05:50 |
| jsgotangco | :D | 05:50 |
| jsgotangco | like start packaging ourselves lol | 05:51 |
| mhz | rofl! | 05:51 |
| ogra | testing the CDs *today* would be a major help | 05:51 |
| ogra | so i wouldnt have to work the next 48h | 05:51 |
| jsgotangco | i'll test all amd64 from now on starting today | 05:51 |
| ogra | (no i dont mean jsgotangco, he has tested at least one arch) | 05:51 |
| highvoltage | jsgotangco: that might not be a bad idea, hey | 05:52 |
| highvoltage | jsgotangco: at least informally | 05:52 |
| jsgotangco | yeah | 05:52 |
| mhz | ogra: I can test,sure. The only thing is I need to download each time | 05:52 |
| ogra | rsync :) | 05:53 |
| mhz | so, my testings can start tomorrow | 05:53 |
| highvoltage | ogra: have you sent a mail to -devel for testers? | 05:53 |
| ogra | http://people.ubuntu.com/~ogra/rsyncer.sh | 05:53 |
| mhz | ogra: yeah, but rsync kept taking as long as downloading | 05:53 |
| highvoltage | ogra: i would like to test, but i have close to 0 bandwidth | 05:53 |
| ogra | use --help to see the option | 05:53 |
| jsgotangco | won't rysncs affect the image name change? | 05:53 |
| mhz | plus, I have to download at 2 diff. places at same time :( | 05:53 |
| ogra | we wont have an image name change | 05:53 |
| jsgotangco | ogra: cool | 05:53 |
| ogra | :) | 05:53 |
| ogra | (see -devel ML ;) ) | 05:54 |
| === jsgotangco imagines it would be painful | ||
| highvoltage | Evolution: getting message 87 of 111 | 05:54 |
| jsgotangco | ahhh | 05:54 |
| highvoltage | ogra: ^^^ will see it in a few minutes ;) | 05:54 |
| jsgotangco | ok even ubuntu-server will not get renamed | 05:54 |
| ogra | yep | 05:54 |
| jsgotangco | that's good | 05:54 |
| jsgotangco | (i test both) | 05:55 |
| mhz | ogra: I was told by nomed (xubuntu and dsslive) that Xubuntu is now doing some progress with LTSP. Know abythiong about it? | 05:57 |
| ogra | the have the packages on the CD afaik | 05:58 |
| ogra | no idea about the udeb | 05:58 |
| mhz | so far, my xubuntu tests for Edubuntu is working very well | 05:58 |
| mhz | oh | 05:58 |
| ogra | i'm totally not intrested in xubuntu tests | 05:58 |
| mhz | I am demoing dapper tomorrow, and I have set Xubuntu to look like edubuntu defaults (a bit) | 05:58 |
| ogra | sorryx, but i'm very disappointed, there was an overwhelming feedback when i asked for tests in the last meeting, now i'm left with it alone again | 05:59 |
| highvoltage | mhz: i know about it, i talked to janimo about xubuntu and tuxlabs | 05:59 |
| highvoltage | mhz: so he said he'll try to get ltsp in xubuntu | 05:59 |
| mhz | ogra: what you mean? | 05:59 |
| highvoltage | mhz: i think xubuntu does have the ltsp packages | 05:59 |
| === yvesC [n=yves@zenobi.ycombe.net] has joined #edubuntu | ||

| mhz | highvoltage: okis, will find out after release | 06:01 |
| ogra | mhz, i'm just recovering from a 54h worksession i did last week and i wont get sleep the next two days again, since nobody of the people from last meeting who shouted they'd help today are here, so please bear me if i react a bit harsh atm on xubuntu catter | 06:01 |

| === neurogeek_ is now known as neurogeek | ||
| ogra | btw, edubuntu-docs wont make it | 06:03 |
| ogra | there is no way to make it work with the liveCd | 06:03 |
| ogra | (apart from me not having time to fiddle with seeds) | 06:03 |
| ogra | highvoltage, *any* testing is helpful at this stage | 06:03 |
| mhz | ogra: no worries, I now see what you mean. And as I have not been in all last 10 meetings or so, I have been very disconected from what current needs are. So, if you think I can be of any help, just let me know, I wont dissapoint you. | 06:04 |
| ogra | mhz, its a more general disappointment on my side atm | 06:05 |
| ogra | not about anyone specifically | 06:05 |
| highvoltage | ogra: ok, i'm starting the rsync now | 06:06 |
| highvoltage | gtg home (been at work for 11 hours) | 06:06 |
| highvoltage | mhz: will send that mail from home | 06:06 |
| highvoltage | ciao | 06:06 |
| jsgotangco | time to make use of CDRWs ;) | 06:08 |
| mhz | ogra: ok, but remeber it is very healthy to shout sometimes just to relax a bit | 06:12 |
| mhz | and if you think I can help, dont hesitate on telling me | 06:13 |
| ogra | that assumes you have a chance to relax | 06:13 |
| mhz | oh | 06:13 |
| mhz | hehehe | 06:13 |
| mhz | indeed | 06:13 |
| mhz | well, if Paris did not take place in such dates, you would have recieved an inviatition for FET in Chile, and then, we would have offered lots of ways for you to relax | 06:14 |
| mhz | including a Train that travels along the Wineyards route | 06:15 |
| mhz | nice girls serving food and wine on boards | 06:15 |
| mhz | -s | 06:15 |
| mhz | ogra: then, you say it is time to get a new image? | 06:17 |
| ogra | current dailies (apart from i386 live) should be fine | 06:18 |
| mhz | oh, then, need me to get i386 Live ? | 06:19 |
| ogra | no | 06:20 |
| ogra | everything else | 06:20 |
| === mhz is missing some english or he's too dumb today :) | ||
| mhz | Then, you mean, Mhz, just get AMD and i386 latest installs ? | 06:23 |

| pygi | oki, and the other one? | 07:02 |
| jsgotangco | just reading now | 07:02 |
| jsgotangco | the xorg proposal is too much | 07:02 |
| jsgotangco | the gedit plugin is reasonable, however, how useful it would be for most users is questionable and as vuntz commented its better off as a gnome proposal | 07:05 |
| pygi | yea, but it wasnt applied to gnome... | 07:05 |
| pygi | we have one empty spot I believe for a good project, so... | 07:05 |
| jsgotangco | i'd go for the gedit plugin | 07:06 |
| pygi | and yea, wanted to ask you (I believe you might be good for that project mentoring) ... | 07:06 |

| jsgotangco | i like this | 07:08 |
| pygi | indeed, me too :) | 07:09 |
| pygi | that's why "bumping up" :) | 07:09 |
| jsgotangco | it would be nice to see it as part of pessulus in the future | 07:09 |
| jsgotangco | do you want me to bump it? | 07:10 |
| === jsgotangco likes it and its workable | ||
| pygi | I would really like to see you mentor that | 07:10 |

| ogra | its not the time to test the testing pages some hours before everything is locked down | 07:29 |
| mhz | ? | 07:29 |
| === mhz is now confused | ||
| ogra | <ogra> we should use Testing/Edubuntu # | 07:29 |
| mhz | so... not needed? then what kind of "testing" you'd prefer ogra ? | 07:30 |
| mhz | ogra: the only match for Testing/Edubuntu I get is: https://wiki.edubuntu.org/Testing/CurrentEdubuntu | 07:31 |
| mhz | is that what you mean? | 07:31 |
| ogra | *SIGH* | 07:31 |
| mhz | sorry | 07:32 |
| ogra | use Testing/CurrentEdubuntu | 07:32 |
| mhz | okis, then that it is | 07:32 |
| cbx33 | sorry ogra | 07:32 |
| ogra | sorry, i'm merely annoyed, and the fact that all my media is broken desnt make it better | 07:32 |
| mhz | caravena: entonces, usamos https://wiki.edubuntu.org/Testing/CurrentEdubuntu | 07:32 |

| ogra | cbx33, all except i386 live needs urgent testing | 07:33 |
| cbx33 | ogra, I can test AMD64 live tomorrow | 07:34 |
| ogra | ok, even that wont help much but do it then | 07:34 |
| cbx33 | and can test i386 installs tomorrow too | 07:34 |
| ogra | i needed testers today archive will be locked soon | 07:34 |
| cbx33 | if you're really pushed I can test the i386's installs | 07:34 |
| ogra | (as i said several times in the last meeting, where evrybody agreed) | 07:35 |
| cbx33 | sorry ogra, you said all the next week, i took that to mean I could test tuesday | 07:35 |
| cbx33 | as I'm off work today | 07:35 |
| cbx33 | I'll get downloading | 07:35 |
| cbx33 | normal place? | 07:35 |
| ogra | sure, but the important tests take place befor the archive is closed indeed (which will happen tomorrow) | 07:35 |
| cbx33 | ok, so I'm goign for the daily install yes? | 07:36 |
| cbx33 | make sure I get the right ones so i don;t screw up | 07:36 |
| ogra | yep | 07:36 |
| cbx33 | I'm on it | 07:37 |
| ogra | thanks :))) | 07:37 |
| cbx33 | I'll try to test all the different installs, is it just the installation procedure you need testing or do you want throrough app testing too? | 07:38 |
| ogra | youre one of the people in here with bandwith, so i really appreciate it | 07:38 |
| caravena | problem in link of download -> https://wiki.edubuntu.org/Testing/CurrentEdubuntu | 07:38 |

| ogra | *start | 07:38 |
| ogra | nope | 07:38 |
| ogra | daily live | 07:38 |
| cbx33 | np ogra | 07:38 |

| cbx33 | ogra, preferably you want real installs but is VMware ok, then I can set two installing at once :p | 07:40 |
| cbx33 | I'll wipe my current dapper off my laptop, install one on there ,but can test another in VMware too | 07:41 |
| caravena | VMware work in Dapper? | 07:42 |
| LaserJock | caravena: I think so | 07:42 |
| cbx33 | I'll be running it in breezy, but it doesn't matter | 07:43 |
| caravena | cbx33: howto install vmware in Dapper? I problem in install vmware for kernel of Dapper (2.6.15-X) | 07:45 |
| cbx33 | oh? | 07:45 |
| cbx33 | if it can't find a kernel module it should compile it's own | 07:45 |
| caravena | (Sorry my english is very bad...) | 07:45 |
| cbx33 | caravena, just download the tarball | 07:45 |
| cbx33 | extract and run the installation | 07:45 |
| caravena | You version of vmware? | 07:46 |
| cbx33 | hang on | 07:46 |
| cbx33 | bear in mind I havn't tried it on dapper | 07:46 |
| cbx33 | I would do, but I'm just about to destroy my dapper install so I can test these install cd | 07:47 |
| cbx33 | caravena, just give it a go and shout if you get stuck....I have to test these CDs | 07:47 |

| cbx33 | ogra, sorry to bug you, is a VMware install acceptable? | 07:55 |
| ogra | cbx33, *any* install is | 07:57 |
| ogra | indeed real HW is preferred ;) | 07:58 |
| cbx33 | I know, and I can do some more real isntalls tomorrow | 07:58 |
| cbx33 | but now I have 2 machiens, one i don;t care about and the other with VMware | 07:58 |

| cbx33 | are you after , when you say CD Installation, erase disk, any type of install, expert, server, OEM ??? | 08:08 |
| cbx33 | if I install the CD using the erase disk, in expert mode, can i check 2 boxes? | 08:11 |
| ogra | any you can do | 08:11 |
| cbx33 | ogra, you know me bud I'll try and do them all if I can...Just can't test the DVD ones | 08:12 |
| cbx33 | not at the moment anyway, don't have any media | 08:12 |
| ogra | dont worry | 08:12 |
| cbx33 | where do we get the DVD's from anyway? | 08:13 |
| cbx33 | I could probably test those tomorrow on VMWare | 08:13 |
| ogra | should be anywhere on cdimage | 08:13 |
| cbx33 | ok | 08:13 |
| cbx33 | and what is CD/DVD winfoss | 08:14 |
| cbx33 | running the CD under windows? | 08:14 |
| ogra | only the liveCD | 08:14 |
| ogra | and not intresting for us | 08:14 |
| cbx33 | ok, I'll skip that then shall i? | 08:15 |
| ogra | we dont have it | 08:15 |
| cbx33 | ok | 08:15 |
| ogra | indeed you can try to test it, but you wont have much luck | 08:15 |
| cbx33 | the dvd is a day old | 08:16 |
| cbx33 | will that be updated by tomorrow? | 08:16 |
| ogra | likely | 08:17 |
| ogra | i never tested the DVD | 08:17 |
| cbx33 | I'll try and test it tomorrow for you | 08:17 |
| ogra | and i'll only do it if i find time before release | 08:17 |

| cbx33 | :p | 08:19 |
| ogra | (i386 is broken until next build) | 08:20 |
| cbx33 | if you still need amd live I can do it tomorrow | 08:20 |
| ogra | sure | 08:20 |
| LaserJock | ogra: yeah, it's too bad you don't have another core-dev to help :( | 08:20 |
| ogra | all isos apart from i386 live | 08:20 |
| cbx33 | ogra, I'll do what I can tonight, if you still need more just let me know your priorities and I'll download and test tomrrow at work | 08:20 |
| ogra | LaserJock, i dont need core devs to test isos :) | 08:20 |
| cbx33 | ogra, needs some minions | 08:21 |
| LaserJock | ogra: yeah, but you might to fix stuff that comes up in the tests ;-) | 08:21 |

| ogra | during the next 4-6h, yes | 08:25 |
| cbx33 | ok | 08:25 |
| LaserJock | I might be able to do that then :-) | 08:26 |

| ogra | as you like | 08:26 |
| cbx33 | np | 08:26 |
| ogra | not urgently needed | 08:26 |

| lucasvo | mhz: I mean globally :) | 08:30 |
| mhz | not sure yet, I did not ask but I guess it will be those PIV stuff :( | 08:30 |
| ogra | mhz, or dapper-live-powerpc.iso and dapper-live-amd64.iso :) | 08:30 |
| mhz | cbx33: nope, but if those machines are PIV, they may have about 512 or 1 GHz of ram, so I may try virtual hardware | 08:31 |

| JaneW | jdub | 09:42 |
| pygi | oki, lemme poke him | 09:42 |
| Burgundavia | ogra, summer of flailing? | 09:42 |
| === mhz is now known as mhz_restartingX | ||
| Amaranth | hahah | 09:43 |
| Burgundavia | ogra, what can we do to help you get ready for release? | 09:43 |
| ogra | Burgundavia, well, last time was rather the summer of failing ... | 09:43 |
| pygi | JaneW, oki, I am just talking with a gnome mentor | 09:43 |
| ogra | Burgundavia, test test test | 09:43 |
| Amaranth | I didn't know I had to be a snake charmer, this wasn't in the job description. ;) | 09:43 |
| Burgundavia | does that I actually have to download edubuntu? | 09:43 |
| ogra | iso install tests, iso live tests | 09:43 |
| ogra | yeah | 09:43 |
| JaneW | pygi: we need someons for Ubuntu/X/Gnome Display Configuration | 09:44 |
| LaserJock | ogra: is i386 live ok to test now? | 09:44 |
| pygi | JaneW, hm, what are we going to drop in favor of that? | 09:44 |
| ogra | LaserJock, there was no new edubuntu build yet afaik | 09:44 |
| cbx33 | what is the standard install called? | 09:44 |
| cbx33 | the fist option? | 09:44 |
| pygi | JaneW, we can drop currently Glaunchpad and that Samba config (so we put in that X display conf, and that gedit plugin?) | 09:44 |
| LaserJock | ogra: I see a daily for it on cdimages. is that wrong? | 09:44 |
| cbx33 | that's not OEM is it? | 09:44 |
| ogra | Burgundavia, once you have your iso, use rsync (http://people.ubuntu.com/~ogra/rsyncer.sh might also help) | 09:45 |
| Burgundavia | ogra, yep | 09:45 |
| JaneW | pygi: oh wait I refreshed and now we are good | 09:45 |
| ogra | http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/edubuntu/daily-live/20060522/dapper-live-i386.OVERSIZED | 09:45 |
| ogra | LaserJock, ^^^ | 09:45 |
| Burgundavia | ogra, you realize you are ruining my perfect reputation, no? | 09:45 |
| JaneW | pygi: except for emblems which we need to drop - or assign. | 09:46 |
| ogra | thats the lastest ... and apparently still broken :) | 09:46 |
| pygi | JaneW, well, we can still drop Glaunchpad and Samba in favor of those two I mentioned | 09:46 |
| pygi | JaneW, we can drop emblems | 09:46 |
| ogra | LaserJock, amd64 and ppc would be testable though | 09:46 |
| pygi | JaneW, it will be mentored by gnome | 09:46 |
| lucasvo | Glaunchpad??? | 09:46 |
| lucasvo | sounds like GTK | 09:46 |
| cbx33 | ogra, is OEM the first option on the install list? | 09:46 |
| ogra | Burgundavia, i can keep quiet if needed | 09:46 |
| Burgundavia | ogra, lol | 09:46 |
| ogra | cbx33, where ? | 09:46 |
| cbx33 | and where is workstation? | 09:46 |
| cbx33 | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/CurrentEdubuntu | 09:46 |
| pygi | JaneW, lets drop emblems for now, and lets see where we stand | 09:47 |
| JaneW | pygi: we need someone for Ubuntu/X/Gnome Display Configuration | 09:47 |
| pygi | JaneW, hm, poke dholbach? :) | 09:47 |

| cbx33 | or modify the OEM to workstation? | 09:49 |
| pygi | JaneW, argh, assign to vuntz? :) | 09:49 |
| pygi | and btw. do we really want that application? | 09:49 |

| cbx33 | I'll be moving it to drupal in the coming days | 09:53 |
| pygi | JaneW, oki, just one more question | 09:54 |
| pygi | are we going to leave that samba thing or are we going to put X conf instead? | 09:54 |
| pygi | *altought we don't have a real mentor for it* | 09:55 |
| JaneW | pygi: you have 3 now, you should hand one to dholbach if appropriate | 09:55 |
| JaneW | I think we can still shuffle after tomorrow | 09:55 |

| ogra | thats all very trivial stuff | 10:09 |
| LaserJock | ogra: I agree, the only one that I'd like to fix for dapper is really the browser plugin | 10:10 |
| ogra | yep | 10:10 |
| ogra | and probably add the icon to the edu menu entry | 10:10 |
| LaserJock | I'm not sure why there is no icon | 10:10 |
| ogra | does it have two .desktop files ? or just one with two categories ? | 10:11 |
| LaserJock | ogra: it should have only one but that bug makes me wonder. | 10:14 |
| ogra | making it two will work in any case (even i have no idea if its the *right* way) | 10:16 |
| LaserJock | ok, so 1 desktop file is installed | 10:16 |
| LaserJock | but I have no idea why it wouldn't use the icon for one but not the other | 10:17 |
| LaserJock | s/wouldn't/would/ | 10:17 |
| ogra | lets ask dholbach tomorrow, probably its a dh_iconcache prob | 10:17 |
| LaserJock | ok | 10:18 |

| ogra | LaserJock, then you should ask iwj, i'm also not sure if npsqueak is built with firefox-dev or mozilla-dev | 10:22 |
| ogra | preferably it should be firefox-dev if that works | 10:23 |
| LaserJock | ogra: hmm, there isn't any build-dep on them. I'm reading the plugin readme | 10:25 |
| LaserJock | it says you can run npsqueakregister to find what browsers are installed and do the proper symlinks | 10:26 |

| Burgundavia | LaserJock, I will play with patch just posted to ESA | 11:14 |
| LaserJock | Burgundavia: k | 11:16 |
| LaserJock | so is ESA being included in edubuntu-docs? | 11:21 |
| Burgundavia | LaserJock, probably too late | 11:22 |
| LaserJock | that's what I thought, wasn't sure what all edubuntu-docs contained though | 11:22 |
| ogra | LaserJock, we dont even have space for edubuntu-docs itself :( | 11:23 |
| ogra | the liveCD is oversized by 4M out of the blue | 11:23 |
| Burgundavia | after we dump kdeedu, what kind of space savings does that get us? | 11:23 |
| ogra | (since saturday, it was fine before) | 11:23 |
| ogra | Burgundavia, i'll drop it for testing in the first edgy week | 11:24 |
| LaserJock | ogra: :/ | 11:24 |
| Burgundavia | cool | 11:24 |
| ogra | Burgundavia, also we'll have a heavy fight with sabdfl if we really want to drop it ... he promotes edubuntu as "the distro that merges all desktops to get the best out of them for education" | 11:31 |

| Burgundavia | the gtk education app scene is pretty laclustre, tbh | 11:32 |
| Burgundavia | has pitti ever said anything about pygame/sdl? | 11:33 |
| Burgundavia | I seem to remember him not being happy about the idea of supporting them | 11:33 |
| ogra | not that i remember (but my mind is pretty short today) | 11:35 |
| Burgundavia | because pygame opens up childsplay and bunch of stuff up to us | 11:35 |
| ogra | i'm not sure childsplay is a good idea | 11:36 |
| ogra | its as big as gcompris and does nothing different | 11:36 |
| ogra | looks like duplication to me | 11:36 |
| Burgundavia | ya | 11:37 |
| Burgundavia | but bdoin does not want to pull in pygame, hence childsplay | 11:37 |
| ogra | yep | 11:38 |
| ogra | but we can only ship one 50MB app for kids | 11:38 |
| Burgundavia | anyway, lets talk about it post dapper | 11:38 |
| ogra | (give LaserJock a chance with his science stuff man :) ) | 11:38 |
| Burgundavia | heh | 11:40 |
| Burgundavia | an idea might to go beyond one disk | 11:40 |
| Burgundavia | have the one core disk for a basic installer and a few apps | 11:40 |
| Burgundavia | secondary disks for specific needs, such as science or math | 11:40 |
| ogra | not sure i can convince our marketing that we need to press two CDs :) | 11:41 |
| Burgundavia | just an idea | 11:42 |
| ogra | (and nope, DVD isnt an alternative :) ) | 11:42 |
| Burgundavia | the subsequent cds would only be for specific cds | 11:42 |
| Burgundavia | things, even | 11:42 |
| ogra | yup, i understand, but since shipit thats not as easy as it was before | 11:43 |
| LaserJock | I think having good meta-packages should work fairly well. I'm not sure what kind of connections most schools have though | 11:43 |
| Burgundavia | ya | 11:43 |
| ogra | we schoul probably have jigdo files or something to make it easy to build meta CDs | 11:43 |
| Burgundavia | realistically, we need to partner with educational foundations/school boards and get them to help us get Edubuntu tothem | 11:43 |
| LaserJock | ogra: can we provide a non-shipit cd? | 11:43 |
| LaserJock | or does Canonical not want to do that? | 11:44 |
| ogra | not sure, we can probably have a second CD for download | 11:44 |
| ogra | i dont know whats needed in debian-cd to make that work | 11:45 |
| ogra | brb, reboot | 11:45 |
| Burgundavia | LaserJock, as long as the system works with the need for a 2nd cd, I don;'t see any issue | 11:46 |

| Kulissenschieber | a couple of weeks ago, a principal requested me to check 5 contributed pc's, and to install win 2000 - (for free, cause my daughter visited this school ) | 12:04 |
| Kulissenschieber | i agreed - but i asked him for a presentation on the next school-conference | 12:04 |
| Kulissenschieber | 3 hours ago i start the pc and the beamer | 12:05 |
| Kulissenschieber | first i showed them, what is win 2000 able to do | 12:05 |
| Kulissenschieber | then i restart | 12:05 |
| Kulissenschieber | they don't know about edubuntu before | 12:05 |
| ogra | :) | 12:05 |
| Kulissenschieber | know they know it | 12:05 |

| pips1 | ogra, I'm happy to test an amd64 ltsp server right now, but I only started dowloading that iso and with my bandwith it'll take me 2 h download :-( how does that rsync thing work? can I "update" my flight6 iso sitting on my hard disk with that? | 12:44 |
| ogra | pips1, http://people.ubuntu.com/~ogra/rsyncer.sh | 12:47 |
| ogra | run ./rsyncer --help to see the options | 12:47 |
| ogra | err | 12:47 |
| ogra | ./rsyncer. --help to see the options | 12:48 |
| ogra | grr | 12:48 |
| ogra | ./rsyncer.sh --help indeed | 12:48 |
| pips1 | ogra, ok | 12:49 |
| pips1 | ogra, errr I'm trying to figure out your rsyncer.sh skript... I chmod +x it and copied it into the folder with a edubuntu-6.06-beta2-live-powerpc.iso and ran ./rsyncer.sh does nothing? | 12:58 |
| ogra | first "mkdir edubuntu" in that folder | 12:59 |
| pips1 | did that | 12:59 |
| pips1 | (sorry forgot to mention that) | 12:59 |
| ogra | then mv edubuntu-6.06-beta2-live-powerpc.iso edubuntu/edubuntu-live-powerpc.iso | 01:00 |
| pips1 | ah! | 01:00 |
| ogra | the ./rsyncer.sh --help | 01:00 |
| ogra | (it will download/rsyncv *all* isos if you dont give any options | 01:00 |
| pips1 | but only those in the dir where I call rsyncer.sh right? | 01:01 |
| === pips1 reads --help again | ||
| ogra | nope in the distro subdirs (edu/k/ubuntu | 01:03 |
| ogra | ) | 01:03 |
| pips1 | right, got you. however, how do I know it actually does anything? if it actually works, the process should run in the forground of that shell, no? also ps aux | grep "rsyncer" gives nothing? | 01:06 |
| === LaserJock is now known as Laser_away | ||
| ogra | hmm | 01:08 |
| pips1 | maybe I should just continue downloading the whole .iso? (is there a cut off time for that freeze "tomorrow" (or rather today)?) | 01:09 |
| ogra | no idea, its all up to mdz | 01:10 |
| pips1 | ic | 01:10 |
| pips1 | okay, I'll continue with the whole iso download :-/ | 01:10 |
| ogra | you can debug the script by setting the "set -e" line to "set -ex" | 01:11 |
| ogra | it will spill a lot output then | 01:11 |

| ogra | pips1, ah | 01:15 |
| ogra | i forgot | 01:15 |
| pips1 | what? | 01:15 |
| ogra | you need ./rsyncer.sh --create edubuntu | 01:15 |
| pips1 | I was just about to try the -ex | 01:15 |
| pips1 | oh | 01:15 |
| ogra | :) | 01:15 |
| ogra | (probably stop it and add --flavor live --arch powerpc ;) ) | 01:16 |
| pips1 | ok | 01:16 |
| ogra | else it will download everything it can grab | 01:17 |
| ogra | :) | 01:17 |
| pips1 | ok, did that. it's now doing its magic :-) | 01:17 |
| ogra | great :) | 01:18 |
| ogra | its easier than having to remember the rsync commands and urls all the time | 01:18 |
| pips1 | ic... I haven't used rsync before | 01:19 |
| pips1 | hmm, still gives me download time of about 2:20 | 01:20 |
| pips1 | (79.74kB/s) | 01:21 |
| ogra | that rises and falls | 01:21 |
| ogra | and beta2 is already pretty old | 01:21 |
| pips1 | ah | 01:21 |
| ogra | but it should save you 1-200MB | 01:21 |
| pips1 | I hope it's more in the region of 200MB ;-) | 01:22 |
| pips1 | (I wish I had more bandwith, but who doesn't) | 01:22 |
| ogra | i'm fine with the 2M in my new house | 01:23 |
| pips1 | woah | 01:23 |
| pips1 | are you going to be up most of the night? | 01:23 |
| ogra | (even i'll upgrade to SDSL 4M if i moved all my hardware) | 01:23 |
| pips1 | cool ! | 01:24 |
| ogra | nope, i wanted to actually do some RL stuff for 1-2h and get some sleep | 01:24 |
| pips1 | RL? | 01:24 |
| ogra | real life :) | 01:24 |
| pips1 | hehe | 01:25 |

| pips1 | well, I see what I can do re testing tonight, but you might only have my feedback after mr. mdz's freeze ... | 01:27 |
| pips1 | :-/ | 01:27 |
| ogra | thats fine | 01:30 |
| ogra | if we find reasonable bugs, we can ask for valid updates :) | 01:31 |
| ogra | its just a bit more discussion involved and every line get reviewed | 01:31 |
| pips1 | alright | 01:32 |
| pips1 | I wasn't able to sleep, that's when I remembered I should download a daily and then I read your plea for testing in the irc logs :-) however I'm actually quite knackered, so I might go to bed at some point. But i'll definitely put some time into testing this week :-) | 01:35 |
| ogra | thanks a lot :) | 01:36 |

| === MysteriousGEGL is now known as jsgotangco | ||
| bimberi | Laser_away: I have a windows98 / Edubuntu LTSP Server dualboot which I connect to from my PXE capable laptop as a thin client (it has XP/UbuntuBreezy/UbuntuDapper tri-boot on its HDD) | 02:08 |
| bimberi | Laser_away: so the laptop tries to PXE boot first, i just hit escape and it goes into GRUB | 02:09 |
| Laser_away | bimberi: cool, thanks | 02:10 |

| HedgeMage | btw, how do I show a graphic in a wiki article? I have the ones to add to my install thing but can't find an example of how to do it | 07:41 |
| cbx33 | i managed to get that all done | 07:41 |
| HedgeMage | (didn't look too hard, I'm trying to juggle a lot right now) | 07:41 |
| cbx33 | ok | 07:41 |
| HedgeMage | cool :) | 07:41 |

| cbx33 | look for the dropdown next to edit up top | 07:42 |

| HedgeMage | nope, I plan to use the ones from highvoltage's "getting started" page so I wasn't sure if I should just link to them since they're already up | 07:43 |
| cbx33 | you can do | 07:43 |
| HedgeMage | It's not life-threatening or anything, but they are trying to keep him from getting medical care :( | 07:43 |

| cbx33 | the name is actually really familiar to me and I don;t know why | 08:55 |

| cbx33 | ahh | 09:02 |

| === HedgeMage makes Yagisan a cup of tea | ||
| === Yagisan gulps it down in one mouthful | ||
| HedgeMage | speaking of which... have you tried giving the baby some tea with hibiscus flowers in it? (babies usually favor fruit or mint teas as they have a light taste) | 10:07 |
| HedgeMage | that tends to help with painful wheezing over time | 10:07 |
| Yagisan | HedgeMage: no. he is still only on baby formula. | 10:08 |
| HedgeMage | most of the popular herbal tea brands have at least a flavor or two with hibiscus flowers in them | 10:08 |
| HedgeMage | ahh okay | 10:08 |
| HedgeMage | I thought he was a wee bit older | 10:08 |
| Yagisan | HedgeMage: heh - many people that meet him think so too | 10:08 |
| Yagisan | he's huge! | 10:08 |
| HedgeMage | then again, TT was a piglet... breastmilk and/or formula didn't last long for him... he started on baby foods very early | 10:09 |
| Yagisan | he is almost as big as his sister | 10:09 |
| HedgeMage | it must run in the family, mom says my kid brother and I did the same thing | 10:09 |
| HedgeMage | :) | 10:09 |
| HedgeMage | how old is his sister again? 2 IIRC? | 10:09 |

| HedgeMage | Tell them you'll do it when they buy you a mac? ;P | 10:15 |

| Yagisan | HedgeMage: hurt ?? | 10:22 |
| HedgeMage | Yagisan: he got messed up at work, nothing life-threatening or anything | 10:24 |
| HedgeMage | that's why I haven't been around the past few days | 10:24 |
| HedgeMage | he had two medical problems they wouldn't let him go to the medic for, and they finally pushed it too far. :( | 10:25 |
| Yagisan | HedgeMage: that's shit news :( | 10:26 |
| cbx333 | ping ogra | 10:26 |
| HedgeMage | Yagisan: yeah, I'm very angry about it, but there's really nothing we can do | 10:26 |
| Yagisan | HedgeMage: military job IIRC ? | 10:27 |
| HedgeMage | Yagisan: they're supposedly going to allow him to go to the troop medic tomorrow, but we don't know if they'll just put him on profile for a week again, or let him see a doctor | 10:27 |
| HedgeMage | Yagisan: yep, US Army | 10:27 |
| Yagisan | HedgeMage: I take it he has a combat role then. | 10:27 |
| Yagisan | HedgeMage: idiots should have sent him to the medic | 10:28 |
| HedgeMage | Yagisan: Nope, he's in communications (computer networking and repairing radios and GPS systems) | 10:28 |
| HedgeMage | but, he's in a line unit which means he does the same workouts and drills as the combat folks | 10:28 |
| HedgeMage | and travels with them, etc. | 10:28 |
| HedgeMage | he's not a noncombatent | 10:28 |
| HedgeMage | just a "support MOS" | 10:29 |
| HedgeMage | but, he used to be airborne / air assault... that's where his knee and leg problems come from... too many hard landings | 10:29 |
| HedgeMage | :( | 10:29 |
| Yagisan | HedgeMage: my wife didn't want me to join the Army here. Before I started my business they had some interesting IT roles that I would have liked | 10:30 |
| === HedgeMage nods | ||

| Yagisan | HedgeMage: no, that's ok. If they keep that up, they won't have much of an Army left though | 10:32 |
| HedgeMage | they don't | 10:32 |
| cbx333 | ok, any doccers out there, I just sent a mail to the list with the getting started guide | 10:32 |
| HedgeMage | the US is relying on our reserve army constantly, and if things get spread much thinner, they will call up inactive reserves, and then head for a draft. | 10:33 |
| Yagisan | HedgeMage: yeah, I noticed our Army reserve has been called up too | 10:33 |
| Yagisan | HedgeMage: not enough to do what we need to do here, and in Afghanistan and Iraq. | 10:34 |
| HedgeMage | you're in Aussieland, right? | 10:34 |
| Yagisan | HedgeMage: yep | 10:34 |

| Yagisan | HedgeMage: that's what the 51st state now | 10:35 |
| HedgeMage | lol | 10:35 |
| Yagisan | HedgeMage: our PM has his head so far up Bushes arse, it's not funny | 10:35 |
| HedgeMage | heh | 10:36 |
| cbx333 | Yagisan: yours as well | 10:36 |
| cbx333 | ? | 10:36 |
| cbx333 | :p | 10:36 |
| Yagisan | cbx333: I'm not a pom! | 10:36 |
| HedgeMage | don't blame me, I didn't vote for him! either time. | 10:36 |
| HedgeMage | :P | 10:36 |
| HedgeMage | Though, he's one of many reasons I've lately considered getting involved in politics again. | 10:38 |
| Yagisan | HedgeMage: why did we go to Iraq ? wait I know, because Shrub had a vendetta against another nutjob, and JH though we could use that to sell wheat to the USA. What happened ? We all get screwed. | 10:38 |
| HedgeMage | It seems all the decent people get fed up and get out like I did... and look what we're left with. | 10:39 |
| Yagisan | HedgeMage: Afghanistan, I understand why they went. I don't understand why they left after a half-arsed job, to start another war. | 10:40 |
| HedgeMage | Yagisan: I can't comment on war-related stuff... if you care to hear my reasons feel free to PM me :) | 10:41 |
| Yagisan | HedgeMage: you know, if they ran a business like that, they'd be filing for bankruptcy | 10:42 |
| HedgeMage | I will, however, be glad to rant about any non-war-related screw-up of our current president until they shuffle us off to -offtopic ;) | 10:42 |
| Yagisan | HedgeMage: yes. have you also noticed he acts *just like* the people he claims are religious fanatics ? | 10:43 |
| HedgeMage | we could start with how he's raped public education, and then move on to the economic stuff, invasions of privacy, and so on and so forth... | 10:43 |
| HedgeMage | Yagisan: A long time ago | 10:43 |
| HedgeMage | Yagisan: when he was still govorner of Texas he tried to have my religion made a crime under military law | 10:44 |
| HedgeMage | actually, a whole class of religions | 10:44 |
| HedgeMage | he's constantly trying to legislate religion into education and medical laws. | 10:45 |
| cbx333 | if I have an email to send to ubuntu-doc mailing list, ad it's BIG, ie it includes images....what should I do? | 10:45 |
| cbx333 | it's bounced and said waiting for approval | 10:45 |
| Yagisan | HedgeMage: I know. the scary thing is, John Howard is coping him | 10:46 |
| cbx333 | should I cancel it and link to an upload of the file? | 10:46 |
| HedgeMage | he's spoken out against religious freedom (in the name of religion of all things) many times. | 10:46 |
| HedgeMage | cbx333: that might be easiest. it's what I'd do | 10:46 |
| cbx333 | ok | 10:46 |

| HedgeMage | Yagisan: Texas, the state that the Shrub is from, is where I was living when a preacher tried to beat me to a miscarriage for not sharing his religion, and the police outright refused to come. | 10:47 |
| Yagisan | HedgeMage: you sound like you have an interesting religion. I'm an Atheist myself, and my wife is a Buddhist. | 10:48 |
| HedgeMage | Yagisan: just to give you an idea of what he thinks is "normal" | 10:48 |
| Yagisan | HedgeMage: WTF!! | 10:48 |
| HedgeMage | Yagisan: I'm FT pagan (that is a generic term meaning I follow a path handed down in my family, that doesn't really exist elsewhere) | 10:48 |
| Yagisan | HedgeMage: someone knock the shit out of the preacher ? | 10:49 |
| HedgeMage | Yagisan: a kind neighbor ran him off with a shotgun | 10:49 |
| HedgeMage | only reason TT lived to be born | 10:49 |
| HedgeMage | mind you, this was a *christian* preacher, you know, the religion that thinks abortion is a mortal sin... I can't help but goggle at the irony | 10:50 |
| Yagisan | HedgeMage: IIRC doesn't "pagan" basically mean not a christian | 10:50 |
| Yagisan | HedgeMage: I'd have shot him myself | 10:50 |
| HedgeMage | "pagan" means not an abrahamic religion... basically anything other than Christianity, Judaism, Islam, and Satanism is pagan | 10:50 |
| Yagisan | HedgeMage: woot. so I'm a pagan too ;) | 10:51 |
| HedgeMage | :) | 10:51 |
| Yagisan | HedgeMage: I've pretended to be a Satanist a few times. I got sick of Jehovah's witnesses knocking on my door | 10:52 |
| HedgeMage | ROFL I've done it too | 10:53 |
| HedgeMage | what's funny is that I have a friend who's a Satanist (one of the non-scary branches) so I know just enough to fake it really really convincingly | 10:53 |
| Yagisan | HedgeMage: I'd see them coming and answer the door bare-chested with a pentagram in red food colouring on my chest, | 10:53 |
| HedgeMage | ROFL | 10:54 |
| Yagisan | HedgeMage: I just went for theatrics | 10:54 |
| HedgeMage | that's hilarious | 10:54 |
| HedgeMage | :D | 10:54 |
| jsgotangco | cbx333: sorry i was just in a meeeting | 10:54 |
| cbx333 | jsgotangco: np | 10:54 |
| cbx333 | just emailed the list | 10:54 |
| Yagisan | HedgeMage: my wife says I should have been an actor, because I can do stuff like that so deadpan serious | 10:54 |
| HedgeMage | Yagisan: When I was in college, I was really mean... I'd offer to listen to them discuss their religion for as many minutes as they'd listen to me discuss mine... I actually created a couple of doubters :D | 10:55 |
| Yagisan | HedgeMage: I'd like it when the morons would come | 10:55 |
| HedgeMage | Hubby's way nicer than I am... he listens to them, waits for them to leave, and throws away whatever tripe they gave him to read | 10:55 |
| Yagisan | HedgeMage: they actually speak rather well. We'd talk about anything except their religion. | 10:56 |
| HedgeMage | I have no problem with sane, respectful people of any religion... it's the ones who want to convert the world (by lethal force if needed) that peeve me off | 10:56 |
| === cbx333 sighs | ||

| Yagisan | HedgeMage: I agree. | 10:57 |

| cbx333 | I though HedgeMage was going to come knocking on my door then | 10:57 |
| HedgeMage | rofl | 10:57 |
| cbx333 | HedgeMage: yes | 10:57 |
| cbx333 | I can totally understand where you're coming from, and agree that there are some scarily "bad" chrisitans out there | 10:57 |
| cbx333 | who totally don't get the point across or have any compassion for peole of different faiths | 10:58 |
| Yagisan | cbx333: I see them in all religions | 10:58 |
| cbx333 | Yagisan: what bad chrisitan hindus? | 10:58 |
| HedgeMage | cbx333: my mom is Christian (Roman Catholic, to be specific)... so is most of my extended family. I never understood the enmity my fellow pagans had for Christianity until I lived in Texas. (note, among other things, the attempted murder of my unborn child by a Christian preacher mentioned above) | 10:58 |
| === cbx333 is a catholic, but I don't go around forcing my beliefs on people | ||

| cbx333 | I just try and be nice to people, if they want to ask about my faith I have no problem talking about it | 11:00 |
| HedgeMage | cbx333: the problem is, IMHO, that in any religion with enough members to get noticed, the psycho extremests are the loudest, and thus the ones outsiders tend to notice the most. | 11:00 |
| Yagisan | cbx333: intolerance of others religions. I live in a very Muslim area. So many of them are pissed off if I kiss my wife in public | 11:00 |
| HedgeMage | ouch. | 11:00 |
| cbx333 | yikes | 11:00 |

| Yagisan | I tell them if they don't like it to go back to Lebanon. | 11:01 |
| cbx333 | mdeboer: hehe | 11:01 |
| Yagisan | mdeboer: welcome to religious education | 11:01 |
| cbx333 | Yagisan: ah, diplomatic as a always :p | 11:01 |
| HedgeMage | mdeboer: have you ever known us to stay on-topic long without JaneW and highvoltage here brandishing bullwhips? | 11:01 |
| Yagisan | cbx333: fuck that. damm boat people :-P | 11:02 |
| mdeboer | :-) | 11:02 |

| === HedgeMage notes that she just highlighted the brandishers of bullwhips and runs for the hills | ||
| HedgeMage | ;) | 11:02 |
| Yagisan | cbx333: they should have to que up and wait 12 months for a visa like my wife did | 11:02 |
| Yagisan | HedgeMage: it's safe to come back now. They don't seem to be here | 11:03 |
| HedgeMage | :) | 11:04 |
| cbx333 | heheh | 11:04 |
| cbx333 | brb | 11:04 |
| Yagisan | speaking of religious nutjobs, anyone recall the last religious war started in the name of Buddhism ? | 11:05 |
| HedgeMage | Yagisan: you can always quote the Qoran at them: it's the only of the abrahamic religious texts, AFAIK, that specifically teaches tolerance: "If a man is a Jew, then insist he be a good Jew, if a man is a Christian, then hold him to be a good Christian, if a man is a Muslim, then hold him to the law of Mohammad." (badly paraphrased as I am sleepy) | 11:05 |
| HedgeMage | Yagisan: when was the last one in the name of unheard-of family religions? | 11:05 |
| HedgeMage | :) | 11:05 |
| HedgeMage | inevitably, of course, it's when religion and politics mix (regardless of the religion) that people start getting killed. | 11:06 |
| HedgeMage | politics and religion are awful bedfellows. | 11:06 |
| HedgeMage | especially if you value breathing :P | 11:06 |
| mdeboer | I wrote a puzzle game, http://www.resorama.com/glpuzzle/ , and i think it could very well be included with edubuntu. It features 12 puzzles of various images, but it might be a nice idea to make a special "edubuntu edition", with edubuntu artwork. | 11:07 |
| Yagisan | HedgeMage: ah, but Buddhism isn't a minor religion. Which was my point. | 11:07 |
| HedgeMage | mdeboer: I'd love to take a peek, looking now :) | 11:07 |
| cbx333 | mdeboer: oooh I like it | 11:07 |
| cbx333 | speak to ogra | 11:07 |
| mdeboer | ogra. ok. | 11:07 |
| Yagisan | mdeboer: we are 2 weeks approx out from release | 11:07 |
| cbx333 | it'll be net release now | 11:07 |
| cbx333 | next | 11:08 |
| HedgeMage | Yagisan: true, but then you have to subject yourself to bickering over whther Buddhism is a religion :P | 11:08 |
| cbx333 | but still put it on his list | 11:08 |
| mdeboer | yes, i am talking about a future release. | 11:08 |
| Yagisan | HedgeMage: IIRC the Quran permits men to rape any woman, not of their religion. I don't see how that is tolerance | 11:08 |
| mdeboer | maybe the first step should be to get it debianized, and included in debian and ubuntu. | 11:08 |
| Yagisan | mdeboer: that would help | 11:09 |
| HedgeMage | mdeboer: looks very cute. :) needs packages, though, I'm too lazy to compile anything else tonight | 11:09 |
| HedgeMage | I'm still boggling at what my gentoo box is compiling right now | 11:09 |
| HedgeMage | Yagisan: I never said it *consistently* preached tolerance, but what major religious text is consistent with itself? | 11:10 |
| mdeboer | maybe some package maintainer offers himself spontaneously (hint hint) | 11:10 |
| HedgeMage | hehe | 11:10 |
| HedgeMage | I have too much on my plate ATM, sorry :( | 11:10 |
| Yagisan | mdeboer: maintainers live in -motu | 11:11 |
| mdeboer | ok thanks | 11:11 |

| ogra | yeah | 12:05 |
| pips1 | boot fails :-( | 12:05 |
| ogra | :( | 12:05 |
| pips1 | should I send you the details by email, or should I just paste it here? | 12:06 |
| ogra | i'll try one today ... (didnt test ppc at all yet, since its my main working machine) | 12:06 |
| ogra | if its small, paste hhere | 12:06 |
| pips1 | basically, the last error is ERROR: The file 'dev/pmu' doesn't exist. | 12:06 |

| pips1 | i had to use the 'live video=ofonly' option, otherwise no go at all | 12:07 |
| ogra | pips1, how much mem does it have ? | 12:08 |
| pips1 | ogra, it's a ppc imac, not intel. iMac G5 (3.1), 20 inch, ATI Radeon X600 XT (1680x105), Mighty Mouse, Boot Rom 5.2.6f1 | 12:08 |
| jsgotangco | cbx33: strange, amd64 worked for me just now | 12:08 |
| pips1 | it has 500 MB | 12:08 |
| ogra | (liveCD needs at least 256M) | 12:08 |
| ogra | ok | 12:08 |
| cbx33 | jsgotangco: my proc is too old | 12:08 |
| ogra | oh, a G5 | 12:08 |
| ogra | amd64 was fine for me too yesterday | 12:08 |
| pips1 | yeah, one of the last of its kind, I just bought it very recently | 12:09 |
| ogra | todays might not work, there was a glitch whhere glib was still building while the CD builds ran | 12:09 |
| ogra | pips1, can you report that on #ubuntu-kernel ? might be cpu related | 12:09 |
| pips1 | ah | 12:09 |
| ogra | i know there were probs with G5's in the past | 12:10 |
| pips1 | I got some errors related to hard disk and mouse (?) too, though | 12:10 |
| pips1 | e.g. | 12:10 |

| pips1 | ah | 12:11 |
| ogra | we cant ship broadcom firmware | 12:11 |

| ogra | (you need to copy your mac firmware from osX to /lib/firmware/kernelversion to make thhat work) | 12:11 |
| pips1 | aha | 12:12 |
| ogra | the hda error is a bit worrying | 12:12 |
| pips1 | is that the main board firmware? | 12:13 |
| === juliux [n=juliux@ubuntu/member/juliux] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| pips1 | my question is: what is the broadcom firmware that i need to copy over? | 12:14 |
| ogra | bcm43xx_microcode5.fw | 12:14 |
| ogra | is what the error says | 12:14 |
| pips1 | ah, .fw = firmware, makes sense :-) | 12:15 |
| pips1 | but you don't happen to know what that firmware would be for, by chance? :-) | 12:15 |
| ogra | your airport extreme card | 12:15 |
| pips1 | ah, right :-) | 12:16 |
| ogra | you should have a driver on te OS X cd that also contains the firmware | 12:21 |
| ogra | google for fwcutter and broadcom, should give you a bunch of howtos | 12:21 |
| pips1 | thanks | 12:21 |
| pips1 | so.. should I paste that error about 'dev/pmu' on #ubuntu-kernel? | 12:21 |
| ogra | ask them if there are known probs with G5's | 12:21 |
| ogra | and if so, if thats one of the symptoms | 12:21 |
| pips1 | oki | 12:21 |
| pips1 | no reply... | 12:21 |
| pips1 | ok, I'll test a amd64 install cd now (ltsp server setup) | 12:22 |

| ogra | should be only 1-2M download with rsync | 12:26 |
| jsgotangco | its installing at the moment on my side | 12:26 |
| ogra | tonights ? | 12:26 |
| ogra | that wont install | 12:27 |
| jsgotangco | yeah | 12:27 |
| ogra | edubuntu-desktop wont be installabe | 12:27 |
| jsgotangco | hmmm its now in gcompris-data | 12:27 |
| ogra | glib is missing a recent version which gimp depends on ... so it will fail with gimp and pull down edubuntu-desktop accordingly | 12:28 |
| jsgotangco | let's see i dunno what i rsync'ed hehe | 12:28 |
| jsgotangco | i just followed your script | 12:28 |
| jsgotangco | ;) | 12:28 |
| ogra | depends *when* then :) | 12:29 |
| pips1 | oh, thanks for the heads up :-) i'll re-run your script then | 12:29 |
| ogra | you either got yesterdays build (if you were early enough) or the broken one of this morning | 12:29 |
| pips1 | I started my rsync about 2am | 12:29 |
| ogra | that gave you this mornings builds | 12:30 |
| pips1 | ah | 12:30 |
| ogra | Generated: Mon May 22 23:52:41 UTC 2006 | 12:30 |
| ogra | that was the broken one | 12:30 |
| ogra | Generated: Tue May 23 10:21:55 UTC 2006 | 12:30 |
| ogra | is the fixed one | 12:30 |
| pips1 | when booting that powerpc live cd, it said 20060522 | 12:31 |
| ogra | live is something different | 12:31 |
| pips1 | right... | 12:32 |
| ogra | they are built in two steps (first the livefs then the iso) | 12:32 |
| pips1 | so the live cd I tested should be ok..? | 12:33 |
| pips1 | oh well, I can always just run that rsync, can't I? :-) | 12:35 |
| jsgotangco | yeah | 12:35 |
| pips1 | jsgotangco, what time zone are you in? | 12:36 |
| jsgotangco | +8 UTC | 12:36 |
| pips1 | ah, evening... | 12:36 |
| blue-frog | sry folks, to rsync it's just rsync://site.com/image.iso when I am in my localfolder containing image.iso, correct? | 12:36 |
| ogra | pips1, yes, that liveCD should be ok | 12:37 |
| pips1 | blue-frog, dunno, sorry, I use ogra's 'rsyncer' shell script | 12:38 |
| ogra | blue-frog, http://people.ubuntu.com/~ogra/rsyncer.sh | 12:38 |
| blue-frog | ty | 12:38 |
| ogra | copy it to a folder, make it executable and run ./rsyncer.sh --create | 12:38 |
| blue-frog | ok | 12:39 |
| ogra | if you have any isos already, copy them over the ones in the edubuntu dir | 12:39 |
| ogra | and try the --help option to restrict what you want (by default it pulls all flavors and all arches) | 12:39 |
| jsgotangco | yeah | 12:40 |
| jsgotangco | i learned that a few hours after i downloaded everything | 12:40 |
| jsgotangco | heh | 12:40 |
| cbx33 | heheh | 12:41 |
| blue-frog | otherwise my command was correct from what I see in your script ogra? | 12:41 |
| ogra | jsgotangco, cool, now just get the missing HW ;) | 12:41 |
| ogra | blue-frog, i usdually use -az --progress | 12:41 |
| jsgotangco | ogra: i might get access to some java think clients would they be useful? | 12:41 |
| ogra | but else it was fine, yes | 12:41 |
| jsgotangco | (pretty old ones i might add) | 12:42 |
| ogra | jsgotangco, if they can PXE boot :) | 12:42 |
| blue-frog | ok ty | 12:42 |
| jsgotangco | they can for sure | 12:42 |
| jsgotangco | ok there's an rsync update available now | 12:43 |
| ogra | yep ... | 12:44 |
| === jsgotangco erases the cdrw | ||
| ogra | i'm still poking on i386 live ... | 12:44 |
| ogra | no idea why its oversized ... | 12:44 |
| Yagisan | ogra: just attach an oversized load sticker, and it'll be right | 12:45 |
| ogra | haha | 12:45 |
| ogra | i should also put a "THIS WONT BOOT" sticker on it as well :) | 12:45 |
| jsgotangco | pfftt rsync is slow | 12:50 |
| cbx33 | ogra: just tried the rsync script here | 12:52 |
| cbx33 | ./rsyncer.sh --dist edubuntu --arch i386 | 12:52 |
| cbx33 | and at first I got a warning about edubuntu dir not being present | 12:52 |
| cbx33 | i created it and now when I run the script it does nothi......oh hang on | 12:52 |
| jsgotangco | create an edubuntu folder and place your current iso there | 12:53 |
| cbx33 | a ok | 12:53 |
| ogra | cbx33, you did run it like i described ? | 12:53 |
| cbx33 | i don;t have an iso on this computer | 12:53 |
| cbx33 | yet | 12:53 |
| jsgotangco | if it doesnt see anything, it'll touch then download | 12:53 |
| cbx33 | ah ok | 12:53 |
| ogra | (i.e. first --create, thne the opther commands? ) | 12:53 |
| cbx33 | :p thankx ogra | 12:53 |
| cbx33 | :D | 12:54 |
| cbx33 | it's working :p | 12:54 |
| cbx33 | if the AMD64 was not oversized I could test it | 12:54 |
| ogra | it isnt | 12:55 |
| cbx33 | hmm...itwas here | 12:55 |
| ogra | all install CDs are fine now | 12:55 |
| cbx33 | since when | 12:56 |
| ogra | and only i386 live is oversized | 12:56 |
| ogra | since i rebuilt them | 12:56 |
| ogra | ~30 min ago, when i said | 12:57 |
| ogra | <ogra> all: please rsync to the latest isos if you have pulled tonights | 12:57 |
| cbx33 | argh ok | 12:57 |
| cbx33 | sorry ogra trying to juggle everything here :p | 12:58 |
| ogra | :) | 12:58 |
| cbx33 | how can i specify 2 archs | 12:58 |
| ogra | sorry, not implemented yet | 12:59 |
| cbx33 | grr :p | 12:59 |
| cbx33 | ok | 12:59 |
| jsgotangco | i have been looking at the script with great interest :) | 12:59 |
| Yagisan | cbx33: which two ? | 12:59 |
| jsgotangco | burning amd64 now | 12:59 |
| ogra | jsgotangco, patches accepted :) | 12:59 |
| Yagisan | cbx33: you can do an amd64 server + i386 clients | 12:59 |
| Yagisan | cbx33: but you need to set iy up manually | 01:00 |
| cbx33 | I had one from this morning.....grr... jsgotangco live cd? | 01:00 |
| === jsgotangco doesn't test livecd | ||
| ogra | Yagisan, he's talking about the rsyncer script | 01:00 |
| cbx33 | oooh....nice | 01:00 |
| cbx33 | I'll test the live cd 64 :p | 01:00 |

| blue-frog | on such a pc? | 01:03 |
| jsgotangco | blue-frog: laptop-testing would be more appropriate though (but try edubuntu workstation) | 01:04 |
| blue-frog | that's what i meant , i have a laptop | 01:05 |
| ogra | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/CurrentEdubuntu | 01:05 |
| jsgotangco | blue-frog: edubuntu workstation has the laptop tools as well | 01:05 |
| ogra | the default install as well | 01:06 |
| ogra | in fact *all* edubuntu installs have the laptop tools ;) | 01:06 |
| jsgotangco | i wouldnt want ltsp on my laptop lol | 01:06 |
| jsgotangco | oohh netinstall hardcore | 01:06 |
| ogra | thats how i test it | 01:06 |
| ogra | running my amd64 laptop as server and have a thin client attached via crossover | 01:07 |
| === jsgotangco wished he had an amd64 laptop | ||
| blue-frog | ok if i understand your phrasing there must be a graphical choice at boot (i ahve been away from my puter a few months...) | 01:07 |
| ogra | blue-frog, just hitting enter gives you the default classroom server install | 01:08 |
| blue-frog | ok as usual then | 01:08 |
| ogra | selecting "workstation" at the CD bootscreen will give your, well, the workstation install | 01:08 |
| ogra | if you ise the liveCD installer, you'll also get a workstation install | 01:08 |
| ogra | s/ise/use/ | 01:08 |
| ogra | there is no need to test the "server" install (it will be dropped during this week) | 01:09 |
| blue-frog | no problem, i generally make myserver from normal install anyway.. | 01:09 |

| pips1 | ogra, I saw you mentioned that the 'server' install option will get dropped. That makes me wondering: What happed to the "Ubuntu Server" plans (not Edubuntu)? Was that idea dropped? | 01:29 |
| jsgotangco | no | 01:29 |
| jsgotangco | Ubuntu Server is still alive | 01:29 |
| ogra | its there since breezy | 01:29 |
| jsgotangco | it has its own installer | 01:29 |
| pips1 | ic | 01:29 |
| pips1 | is there a main "Ubuntu Server" page on ubuntu.com or in the wiki? | 01:31 |
| jsgotangco | none at the moment, very few people test it actually | 01:31 |
| jsgotangco | i think im the only one who tested flight 7 before heh | 01:32 |
| pips1 | (I'm planning on buying some server hardware and info about hardware-tests/recommendations would be very nice) | 01:32 |

| jsgotangco | ogra: it really gets stuck in package 501 then i get a kernel Buffer I/O error on hdb line | 01:41 |
| ogra | thats very likely broken media or a too fast burn | 01:42 |

| mhz | Unvelievably, my friends ISP did not provide any service until 21 PM :( | 01:58 |
| ogra | as i said, no need to test "server", we'll drop it | 01:58 |
| mhz | duh | 01:58 |
| ogra | test workstation and default rather | 01:59 |
| mhz | "we'll drop it" as in Edubuntu? or the whole Ubuntu? | 01:59 |
| mhz | okis | 01:59 |
| mhz | Today I'll test it in 2 diff machines | 01:59 |
| mhz | diff = diff hardware of course | 02:00 |
| ogra | in edubuntu | 02:00 |
| mhz | roger that, captain. | 02:00 |
| ogra | ubuntu will keep it, and we'll liekly get it back in edgy, its just that there is a problem just renaming it | 02:00 |
| mhz | good to know | 02:00 |
| ogra | so we'll drop it to avoid confusion | 02:00 |
| ogra | (and re-add it based on user complaints :) ) | 02:01 |
| mhz | I was asked if Edubuntu default comes with a "firewall" default. "I don't know, but we can always use IpTables" I said. Do we have such default thing? | 02:01 |
| mhz | lol | 02:02 |

| ogra | could be | 02:05 |

| cbx33 | and free disk space | 02:33 |
| mhz | yup, I guess i do, in the lab I am today | 02:33 |
| ogra | its also valuable to test it on non amd64 platforms :P | 02:33 |
| cbx33 | ok | 02:33 |
| mhz | cbx33: just apt-get and it works or needs some hours of config? | 02:33 |
| ogra | but you need at least 256M to make it work | 02:33 |
| cbx33 | I can o that this evening, | 02:33 |

| ogra | (most things will be covered by ubuntu fixes alrerady, but there might be some occurences we're not aware) | 04:01 |
| cbx33 | ogra: does that mean ESA will have to be patched too? | 04:03 |
| ogra | only stuff on the cD for now | 04:04 |
| ogra | but ESA would indeed also be a candidate | 04:04 |
| cbx33 | ok | 04:04 |
| cbx33 | as indeed would gettingstarted? | 04:04 |
| ogra | yep | 04:04 |
| cbx33 | did you see I have moved that to docbook | 04:04 |
| cbx33 | :D | 04:04 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: indeed | 04:05 |
| ogra | no, i didnt | 04:05 |
| cbx33 | yup just like you requested :p | 04:05 |
| ogra | did you take the recent one from edubuntu-docs with the fixes and new screenshots ? | 04:05 |
| cbx33 | i patched the makefile too, just waiting for it to be included in the repo | 04:05 |
| cbx33 | ogra: but of course mon ami :p | 04:05 |
| ogra | :) | 04:06 |
| cbx33 | will be putting ESA on the drupal site too when I get a spare minute | 04:07 |
| cbx33 | but not calling it ESA obviously | 04:07 |
| cbx33 | I also have to mock that up in scribus and get some tests printed off | 04:07 |

| pips1 | ?! | 04:24 |
| === spacey [n=herman@ubuntu/member/spacey] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| cbx33 | is 800x600 still the lwest res we support | 04:24 |
| === cbx33 wishes someone would patch gaim so that the msn options didn't spill over the bottom | ||
| ogra | iirc it should default to 1024x786 | 04:25 |
| ogra | not to 800x600 | 04:25 |
| cbx33 | ok | 04:25 |
| pips1 | well, It might be 1024x786, not sure, but it's definitely not the 1280x1024 I chose before install (gnome desktop *is* 1280x...) | 04:26 |
| ogra | thats funny | 04:26 |
| pips1 | it looks all pixelated | 04:26 |
| pips1 | same after rebooting | 04:26 |
| pips1 | lemme try a thinclient now and see what the resolution of gnome login screen is there... | 04:27 |
| cbx33 | heheh | 04:28 |
| ogra | thats unrelated | 04:28 |
| ogra | the X config is generated newly on every boot on the clients and the login manager isnt gdm | 04:28 |
| pips1 | ah, i see. but I'll test with thin clients anyway... :-) | 04:29 |
| ogra | :) | 04:29 |
| pips1 | my laptops pxe doesn't get an ip... how can I see on the server if dhcp is running? | 04:33 |
| ogra | ps ax|grep dhsp | 04:33 |
| ogra | err | 04:33 |
| ogra | dhcp | 04:33 |
| pips1 | oh, no, keymap wasn't set right :-( | 04:34 |
| pips1 | my keyboard is swiss-german. what key is the pipe symbol on us layout? | 04:35 |
| pips1 | ach, I might try to change keymap under System>... | 04:36 |
| pips1 | ok, at least that worked | 04:38 |
| pips1 | these keymap problems plague me since breezy... I thought they fixed it | 04:39 |
| pips1 | ah, no dhcp running | 04:39 |
| === pips1 wonders why | ||
| ogra | did you configure it ? | 04:40 |
| ogra | it wont "just start" if there is no matching IP | 04:40 |
| === cbx33 is glad of that | ||
| cbx33 | I already have a dhcp server | 04:40 |
| pips1 | erm, where do I need to configure it? (wasn't asked during install) | 04:41 |
| pips1 | i turned off dhcp server on my dsl router, because I thought that's what I need to do, since I thought edbuntu runs a dhcp by default. was that changed? | 04:42 |
| ogra | pips1, see the InstallNotes | 04:43 |
| pips1 | ok | 04:43 |
| ogra | you need to have at least one matching static interface, else the dhcp server wont start | 04:43 |
| pips1 | oops, I chose ip 192.168.1.2, so that's probably why dhcp didn't start then | 04:46 |

| pips1 | erm, also I can't seem to logon on a thin client as a new user (login as initial user works, though) | 05:56 |
| ogra | ah, yes | 05:56 |
| ogra | sudo dpkg-reconfigure edubuntu-artwork will fix it | 05:56 |

| === lucasvo would like to go to paris as well :) | ||
| LaserJock | ogra: should I flesh it out and make it a spec? | 06:44 |
| ogra | LaserJock, yep, but keep in mind that dropping stuff from one flavour wont gain us anything on the CD | 06:45 |
| LaserJock | right | 06:45 |
| ogra | since they should be insallable all from the same media | 06:45 |
| LaserJock | I was looking more for making a lighter install for the Edubuntu Kids | 06:45 |
| lucasvo | ogra: should they? | 06:45 |
| lucasvo | LaserJock: and for e.g. not install gcompris on university version :) | 06:46 |
| LaserJock | I was thinking that University could be fairly minimal because most people will want to customize it using meta-packs | 06:46 |
| LaserJock | and they have good connections :-) | 06:46 |
| lucasvo | yeah | 06:47 |
| ogra | lucasvo, we wont ship more than one edubuntu CD | 06:47 |
| lucasvo | LaserJock: but 14+ age is not only university | 06:47 |
| lucasvo | also highschool with bad connection | 06:47 |
| ogra | so all flavours need to fit | 06:47 |
| LaserJock | lucasvo: yeah, I was trying to think of how to do that | 06:47 |
| lucasvo | just remove qt | 06:47 |
| lucasvo | :) | 06:47 |
| LaserJock | that won't solve everything | 06:48 |
| lucasvo | no, but it gives us more space | 06:48 |
| lucasvo | a smaller kernel :) | 06:48 |
| ogra | LaserJock, well, it would drop KDE langpacks | 06:48 |
| ogra | see K: here http://people.ubuntu.com/~pitti/langpacks/langpacksize.txt | 06:48 |

| pips1 | erm, so... for swiss-german keymap in LTSPClientKeymap, do I use 'ch_de' or 'de_CH'? I tried both, neither worked. | 07:04 |
| === pips1 goes and tries 'de' simply to see if the LTSPClientKeymap has an effect at all | ||
| pips1 | guys, tell me, am I a freak for wanting English system language with a swiss-german keyboard? That combination *should* just work out of the box, no? (German system language with swiss-german keyboard "just works" fine) | 07:08 |
| ogra | on the server, yes | 07:09 |
| ogra | not sure if you *need* to select it in the gfxboot screen before installing though | 07:09 |
| ogra | might be that it preseeds some values in the installer | 07:10 |
| pips1 | I selected English + Swiss-German in the initial screen (F2 + F3 options)... but I still only got English keymap :-( | 07:11 |

| pips1 | ok, at least the 'de' in LTSPClientKeymap works, but I don't know what value I need to use to get swiss-german keymap on the thin clients.. Does anyone know? | 07:12 |
| pips1 | lucasvo, maybe? :-) | 07:12 |
| ogra | de_CH ? | 07:14 |
| pips1 | That keymap bug is my personal ubuntu bug no.1, grumble, rant. | 07:15 |
| pips1 | tried that, didn't work | 07:15 |
| === pips1 tries de_CH again | ||
| ogra | its an xkb map, so it should logically work | 07:15 |
| pips1 | it's amazing how such seemingly trivial issues can just suck away hours and hours :-) | 07:18 |
| highvoltage | pips1: *nods* | 07:19 |
| pips1 | he | 07:19 |
| pips1 | nope, de_CH definitely doesn't work | 07:21 |
| === pips1 doesn't know what to do next and takes a wee break | ||
| ogra | LaserJock, before you rant again, i only dropped -support-es, not -pack-es :) | 07:22 |
| pips1 | ok guys, that was my testing day. amd64 install cd works. but I get the feeling that there are still lots of (ubuntu) bugs to be squashed! | 07:26 |

| LaserJock | I love terminals and I still don't get aptitude | 07:38 |
| ogra | hehe | 07:38 |
| ogra | same here :) | 07:38 |
| ogra | but i didnt want to start a flame | 07:38 |
| LaserJock | yeah, aptitude has a quite devoted following :-) | 07:38 |
| LaserJock | somebody was going through wiki.ubuntu.com doing a s/apt-get/aptitude/ | 07:39 |
| ogra | eek | 07:39 |
| Burgwork | LaserJock, ogra I am going to fix that once and for all | 07:40 |
| Burgwork | the grand plan is to not mention any way of installing, simply say "Install the following packages" | 07:40 |
| ogra | how ? | 07:40 |
| ogra | ah, yes | 07:40 |
| Burgwork | it is on my todo list for tonight | 07:40 |
| LaserJock | Burgwork: people will just s/Install the following packages/aptitude/ ;-) | 07:41 |
| Burgwork | LaserJock, if they do, I will LART them | 07:41 |
| LaserJock | hehe | 07:41 |
| Burgwork | and if they do it again, I will get their edit privs yanked | 07:41 |
| ogra | just add "changing coreys wiki additions is a violation" to the CoC ;) | 07:42 |
| Burgwork | lol | 07:42 |
| Burgwork | I should post to the -doc list about what I am going to do, just as fair warning | 07:43 |
| LaserJock | I always think it is weird, if people are smart enough to use aptitude then they are obviously smart enough to s/apt-get/aptitude/ in their brain | 07:43 |
| Burgwork | debian has standarized on aptitude over apt-get | 07:44 |
| LaserJock | have they? | 07:44 |
| ogra | we'll standarize on smart over aptitude *and* apt-get ! | 07:44 |
| LaserJock | darn it, I dislike how when I install kubuntu-desktop & ubuntu-desktop the menus turn into a zoo | 07:45 |
| Burgwork | LaserJock, afaik, yes | 07:46 |
| Burgwork | ogra, that will be nice, but we will need dummy scripts that do the same thing as apt-get and aptitude to not break peoples scritps | 07:46 |
| LaserJock | Burgwork: how can they even do that? in their documentation? | 07:47 |
| Burgwork | I have heard it mentioned | 07:47 |
| === juliux [n=juliux@ubuntu/member/juliux] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| LaserJock | does the documentation on the LTSP websited apply to Edubuntu? | 07:56 |
| ogra | partially | 07:57 |
| ogra | not to the core parts | 07:57 |
| ogra | but things like the ltspfs page for example and all the tweakage to dhcpd.conf etc etc | 07:57 |
| Burgwork | ogra, is edubuntu documentation moving off the wiki? | 07:58 |
| ogra | partially | 07:59 |
| ogra | not to the core parts | 07:59 |
| ogra | but things like the ltspfs page for example and all the tweakage to dhcpd.conf etc etc | 07:59 |
| Burgwork | ok | 07:59 |
| ogra | :P | 07:59 |
| ogra | nah, the LTSP wikipages are needed | 07:59 |
| ogra | we'll put the more fleshed out pages on www.edubuntu.org later | 08:00 |
| ogra | but the wiki is still the place to create docs | 08:00 |

| cbx33 | hi Burgwork , highvoltage | 08:48 |
| LaserJock | cbx33: yes well from about 45 min ago : * highvoltage wonders where cbx33 is tonight | 08:48 |

| cbx33 | oi | 08:50 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: seems like it's some kind of version problem with php on the server (which we can't change) | 08:51 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: so we're going with a new theme, which i have hald way done, went with friendselectric, which i should have from the beginning, it has much simpler css, and it's starting to look real nice | 08:52 |

| saugilsr | hi all, I started a spec for Drive imaging in edubuntu.. it's my first attempt at doing such a thing so let me know if im on the right track or should commit Seppuku.. https://wiki.edubuntu.org/EdubuntuDriveImagingSpec | 08:57 |
| ogra | saugilsr, thats nice, but would be more applicable as an ubuntu spec | 08:59 |
| cbx33 | highvoltage, cool | 08:59 |
| cbx33 | that sounds great | 08:59 |
| ogra | saugilsr, we inherit such stuff from ubuntu then, usually there is no low level stuff done in edubuntu specifically | 09:00 |
| saugilsr | ogra: ok. I can move it. Wasn't sure how that worked. | 09:01 |
| Burgwork | saugilsr, from someone who has done both drive imaging and preseeding stuff, I think preseeding is a sane option | 09:01 |
| cbx33 | ogra, hows the testing going, got any more volunteers? | 09:03 |
| Burgwork | cbx33, I am hours away from my first Edubuntu install, much to my horror | 09:04 |
| ogra | saugilsr, also you are talking about /tftpboot ... seems to me you should get a bit familiar with ubuntu ltsp :) | 09:04 |
| highvoltage | i badly wanted to get a testing group together for this release. i made some progress with bluekaja, but i think he got distracted somehow :/ | 09:04 |
| ogra | Burgwork, we're all here :) | 09:04 |
| === saugilsr goes to do some more research ;) | ||
| ogra | cbx33, currently i'm still fighting with that i386 oversizedness | 09:05 |
| cbx33 | oh dear | 09:05 |
| ogra | sad thing is that it should be solved since some hours | 09:05 |
| cbx33 | oh dear ++ | 09:06 |
| ogra | but every time i trigger a livefs build any package just got uploaded that breaks everything | 09:06 |
| highvoltage | kdeedu should perhaps have been dropped earlier :/ | 09:06 |
| ogra | dia-gnome killed the current build | 09:06 |
| ogra | highvoltage, nope | 09:06 |
| cbx33 | oh dear ++++ | 09:06 |
| highvoltage | ogra: is there anything droppable left? | 09:06 |
| ogra | there was the spansig lanuage-support package | 09:07 |
| ogra | but we apparently only need the language-pack packages | 09:07 |
| ogra | i'm currently shuffluing them around until it fits | 09:07 |
| ogra | *spanish | 09:08 |
| === cbx33 praises ogra's patience | ||

| ogra | dholbach has a really bad/busy time atm | 09:09 |
| LaserJock | I can imagine | 09:09 |
| cbx33 | heheh | 09:09 |
| LaserJock | I had a talk with my advisor yesterday about Edubuntu and our department computer lab | 09:09 |
| cbx33 | oooh | 09:10 |
| cbx33 | LaserJock, good news? | 09:10 |
| LaserJock | he said that perhaps a server computer will be available in the department soonish | 09:10 |
| LaserJock | but he has lots of questions | 09:10 |
| cbx33 | ooooh nice | 09:10 |
| LaserJock | and since I've never done LTSP before I'm really not sure how to answer some of them | 09:11 |
| cbx33 | LaserJock, like what? | 09:11 |
| LaserJock | it is kinda hard because I feel like I need a computer lab to test LTSP in order for them to swith the computer lab | 09:11 |
| LaserJock | kind of a circular issue | 09:12 |
| ogra | two laptops and a crossover cable :) | 09:12 |
| LaserJock | well, you can leave the hard drive and PXE boot right? so all I'd need is an Edubuntu server? | 09:12 |
| === saugilsr goes to teach a bunch of Primary teachers how to use their electronic gradebooks.. again. | ||
| LaserJock | anyway, the sys admin has a spare box he said he was going to play with Edubuntu on | 09:13 |
| ogra | yep | 09:13 |
| LaserJock | ok, so the hardware of the thin client doesn't matter? | 09:14 |
| ogra | we | 09:14 |
| cbx33 | LaserJock, what network is it at the moment? | 09:14 |
| ogra | well, you should match the minimal requirements | 09:14 |
| LaserJock | but we have 2 different types of computers, does that matter? | 09:14 |
| ogra | nope | 09:15 |
| LaserJock | what I'm wondering is, are is anything actually run on the client so that it would need drivers for instance? | 09:15 |
| ogra | ltsp will autodetect them | 09:15 |
| highvoltage | if it's different architechtures, it will make a difference. | 09:16 |
| ogra | yes | 09:16 |
| LaserJock | so arch, just different motherboards, video cards, etc. | 09:16 |
| cbx33 | LaserJock, we're running out LTSP TEST server off of a laptop | 09:16 |
| LaserJock | s/so/same/ | 09:16 |
| LaserJock | ok, so another issue is going to be opengl | 09:17 |
| ogra | GL is an issue, different boards arent | 09:18 |
| cbx33 | what network do you have at the moment? | 09:18 |
| cbx33 | windows/unix/linux? | 09:18 |
| ogra | ltsp uses very much the liveCD HW detection, so if you manage to boot ubuntu live, it will work with ltsp as well | 09:18 |
| LaserJock | cbx33: windows | 09:18 |
| LaserJock | cbx33: about 10 of them I think | 09:18 |
| cbx33 | LaserJock, well if you wanted you could run dual boot for a while | 09:18 |
| LaserJock | ogra: ahhh, ok | 09:18 |
| cbx33 | with the windows DHCP server still server ip addresses | 09:19 |
| LaserJock | cbx33: I think I'd have to anyway, unfortunately I doubt I can get rid of Windows altogether | 09:19 |
| cbx33 | well, remember I have docs on that setup | 09:20 |
| LaserJock | we have too much stupid proprietary, Windows-only software the people rarely use but we have to justify the licenses I suppose :( | 09:20 |
| highvoltage | LaserJock: don't get me started on proprietary software with stupid licenses | 09:21 |
| highvoltage | :) | 09:21 |
| LaserJock | highvoltage: well we have at least one that has a parallel port key | 09:21 |
| LaserJock | and another that you have to go to the library and check out the cds in order to run | 09:22 |
| cbx33 | me neither | 09:23 |
| LaserJock | anyway, if I can overcome the opengl problem then I think I'd have a reasonable chance of getting somewhere | 09:23 |
| cbx33 | we're going to spend 4500 on some software to register kids every lesson | 09:23 |
| blue-frog | will dapper beburned ok on a 700MB disk overburned? | 09:23 |
| cbx33 | and then over 2300 every year support | 09:23 |
| === cbx33 is furious | ||
| cbx33 | I offered to make a solution for them for free | 09:24 |
| LaserJock | my idea is to have and edubuntu server that the faculty can use for labs and then have Ubuntu cds available for students to take home so they can have the same software at home | 09:24 |
| === caravena [n=caravena@200.55.195.158] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| cbx33 | but they wanted to spend 7000 | 09:24 |
| cbx33 | LaserJock, that's a great idea | 09:24 |
| LaserJock | the faculty are slow to realize that students like to do homework at their dorms and not at some lab | 09:25 |
| cbx33 | heheh | 09:25 |
| LaserJock | so they push prorietary software that is too expensive for students to buy and then wonder why their students don't use it | 09:25 |
| cbx33 | or why they use illegal copies | 09:25 |
| cbx33 | as is the case at the school | 09:26 |
| highvoltage | LaserJock: wha'ts a parallel port key? | 09:26 |
| cbx33 | LaserJock, a dongle? | 09:27 |
| LaserJock | highvoltage: you have to stick a key into the parallel port before the software can be run | 09:27 |
| cbx33 | highvoltage, hardware copy protection | 09:27 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: can't be that, i don't have something that i call a dongle | 09:27 |
| cbx33 | heheh | 09:27 |
| highvoltage | (me had to phrase that very carefully) | 09:27 |
| cbx33 | I'm sure you did | 09:27 |
| blue-frog | dongle it is yes | 09:27 |
| highvoltage | oh, no, then we don't have that in common :) | 09:27 |
| cbx33 | so are we still having an informal meeting tomorrow 12 and not one in the evening | 09:28 |

| cbx33 | they look great | 11:18 |
| LaserJock | ok cool | 11:18 |
| cbx33 | ogra, did you see the post on the ML about LTSP chroot build failing | 11:18 |
| cbx33 | he mentions it's on an OLD piece of hardware | 11:18 |
| cbx33 | did you say the time problem is fixed now, havn't read through fully thought I'd mention it | 11:19 |
| LaserJock | cbx33: question. is each thin client instance a seperate chroot on the server? | 11:19 |
| cbx33 | no | 11:19 |
| cbx33 | LaserJock, the LTSP works basically like terminal server on windows, hence the name | 11:20 |
| cbx33 | in essence the chroot is just a very small install that just loads an SSH connection and X server session to talk to the main server | 11:20 |
| LaserJock | I'm afraid I've never done anything like this before :/ | 11:20 |
| === superset1 [n=smarinel@pcp021970pcs.dhcp.calpoly.edu] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| cbx33 | you then log into the main server essentially over an SSH link | 11:20 |
| cbx33 | if you get my drift | 11:21 |
| LaserJock | ahh, ok that makes more sense | 11:21 |
| cbx33 | all the chroot does is do all the HW detection for the clients | 11:21 |
| cbx33 | and setup the X SSH session | 11:21 |
| cbx33 | after that you are using the normal install on the server for all the programs etc | 11:21 |
| LaserJock | ok, I use VNC a fair bit, it would be similar to that I suppose | 11:22 |
| cbx33 | yes indeed | 11:22 |
| cbx33 | it's a litle different in that it uses ldm to present a login screen | 11:23 |
| cbx33 | but the back end of that is SSH to the server | 11:23 |
| bluefrog-10 | cbx33, same thing I managed to see at what point.. around 59% black screen, all consoles are frozen | 11:23 |
| LaserJock | so how do you keep people from screwing up your server? | 11:23 |
| cbx33 | bluefrog-10, did you try the special kernel debug keys | 11:24 |
| cbx33 | LaserJock, good question | 11:24 |
| bluefrog-10 | cbx33, no as I don't know what they are | 11:24 |
| bluefrog-10 | oh it's a choice at boot? | 11:25 |
| cbx33 | no | 11:25 |
| bluefrog-10 | ah | 11:25 |
| cbx33 | search the wiki for debugging a crash | 11:25 |
| cbx33 | it's to do with the SysReq key | 11:25 |
| cbx33 | and Alt | 11:25 |

| cbx33 | ah :p | 11:29 |
| Burgwork | cbx33, just took control of #ubuntu-ca, so I need to fix that | 11:29 |
| cbx33 | hehe | 11:30 |
| cbx33 | HedgeMage, i lost me password to an old nick that I had. Any chance I can get it back? | 11:30 |

| bluefrog-10 | cbx33, from what i understand the keys may give you a chance when it's crash on a running system not during install, anyway tried them with no luck | 11:41 |
| cbx33 | bluefrog-10, well in essence it is a running system | 11:41 |
| cbx33 | but I'm guessing it didn't work | 11:41 |

| cbx33 | :( | 11:51 |
| cbx33 | bluefrog-10, submitted bug? | 11:51 |
| bluefrog-10 | done it 3 or 4 months ago.. | 11:51 |
| cbx33 | :( | 11:52 |
| bluefrog-10 | am trying to install from livecd to see if i have same problem | 11:52 |
| cbx33 | sorry bluefrog-10 if I was skilled in that area I'd fix it for you | 11:52 |
| cbx33 | ok | 11:52 |
| cbx33 | i would think you probably would | 11:53 |
| cbx33 | but i'll keep my fingers crossed | 11:53 |
| bluefrog-10 | no problem I don' t really care about them it's just i tried desperately to lower the sound when launching gcompris :) | 11:53 |
| bluefrog-10 | hoping it would work now :) | 11:53 |
| bluefrog-10 | the graphical install from livecd is very nice, making me sweat but very nice :) | 11:58 |
| bluefrog-10 | it's stuck at 0% of resizing partition when it's not supposed to resize anything :) | 11:59 |
| HedgeMage | eek! | 12:15 |
| HedgeMage | that would make me nervous, too | 12:17 |
| bluefrog-10 | well 20 minutes after am still on it | 12:18 |
| bluefrog-10 | cd running from time to time | 12:18 |
| bluefrog-10 | HDD blinking | 12:18 |
| bluefrog-10 | woops | 12:18 |
| bluefrog-10 | went thru in a split second right now | 12:18 |
| bluefrog-10 | clicked on install.. | 12:19 |
| cbx33 | hehe | 12:19 |
| bluefrog-10 | what i don't like though is the fact it's saing creating bla bla in partition number 3.. | 12:20 |
| bluefrog-10 | instead of /dev/hda8 | 12:20 |
| bluefrog-10 | not deadly but makes me frown :) | 12:21 |

| Bluekuja | oh irc stuff? | 12:30 |
| Bluekuja | or something related to your life? | 12:31 |
| HedgeMage | little of all of the above | 12:32 |

| HedgeMage | :) working on it! | 12:40 |
| Bluekuja | good luck then | 12:40 |
| bluefrog-10 | cool reboot is working normally compared to breezy on my laptop | 12:40 |
| bluefrog-10 | what I don't understand is the grub menu | 12:40 |
| Bluekuja | bluefrog-10: what are you talking about? | 12:40 |
| bluefrog-10 | have kernel 2.6.15 and ubuntu 6.06 LTS | 12:41 |
| Bluekuja | oh you're testing | 12:41 |
| bluefrog-10 | what's the difference | 12:41 |
| bluefrog-10 | yes | 12:41 |
| bluefrog-10 | well i understand one difference when I choose ubuntu 6.06 LTS I can't log in. it rejects my user and/or my password | 12:43 |
| cbx33 | ping Bluekuja | 12:44 |
| Bluekuja | oi pete | 12:44 |
| bluefrog-10 | cbx33, can you have a quick look at what i just wrote above pls? | 12:45 |
| cbx33 | what about it? | 12:45 |
| bluefrog-10 | at grub menu at boot have kernel 2.6.15 and ubuntu 6.06 LTS what's the difference? | 12:46 |
| bluefrog-10 | after an install from livecd | 12:46 |
| cbx33 | hmmm | 12:46 |
| bluefrog-10 | which took awfully long but worked | 12:46 |
| cbx33 | not sure tried them both? | 12:46 |
| cbx33 | ah | 12:46 |
| cbx33 | ok | 12:46 |
| cbx33 | hmm....not sure tbh | 12:46 |
| bluefrog-10 | kernel blaba let's me log in, ubuntu not | 12:47 |
| cbx33 | it's not the LTSP boot is it? | 12:47 |
| cbx33 | which means it'd be looking for an LTSP server | 12:47 |
| bluefrog-10 | ubnut lts choice doesn't let me log in | 12:47 |
| bluefrog-10 | ah ok | 12:47 |
| bluefrog-10 | huh? | 12:47 |
| bluefrog-10 | looking for a server? | 12:47 |
| bluefrog-10 | you mean complete workstation but looking to get it's authentication from a ldap like server? | 12:49 |
| bluefrog-10 | while kernel 2.6.15 choice is an ltsp server? | 12:49 |
| === mgalvin [n=mgalvin@ubuntu/member/mgalvin] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| bluefrog-10 | cbx33, no it's not an lts boot, i don't have any ltsp server running | 12:52 |
| cbx33 | no | 12:53 |
| cbx33 | but it may be an option | 12:53 |
| bluefrog-10 | hum why is there a bit torrent tracker activated btw? | 12:53 |
| bluefrog-10 | just saw it stopping down when I was shutting down pc | 12:53 |
| bluefrog-10 | well am gonna hit the sac..I'll be here tomorrow to ask about those two choices in grub, ty | 12:55 |
| cbx33 | nn bluefrog-10 | 12:55 |
| cbx33 | you still around Bluekuja | 12:55 |
| bluefrog-10 | and about bit torrent :) | 12:55 |
| Bluekuja | cbx33: yep | 12:55 |
| cbx33 | np bluefrog-10 | 12:55 |
| cbx33 | howz it going | 12:55 |
| cbx33 | havn't seen you in a while | 12:55 |
| bluefrog-10 | so for a quick briefing, dapper install failed twice | 12:55 |
| Bluekuja | yeah, I'm working a lot on packages | 12:56 |
| bluefrog-10 | install from dapper live went good but long | 12:56 |
| Bluekuja | both debian and rpm | 12:56 |
| cbx33 | bluefrog-10, if you can identify where it would be good | 12:56 |
| cbx33 | Bluekuja, for gnome? | 12:56 |
| cbx33 | packaging? | 12:56 |
| Bluekuja | well i packaged some gnome programs too, but i'm working on 3 packages for Debian (Ctorrent, gtorrent-viewer, v2strip) and 2 rpm for fedora (ctorrent,v2strip) | 12:57 |
| cbx33 | ah cool | 12:57 |
| Bluekuja | i'm working with a debian developer for deb packages | 12:58 |
| cbx33 | cool | 12:58 |
| Bluekuja | yeah, it is. I've also read a lot of guides,howtos and so on in the last 3 weeks | 12:58 |
| cbx33 | nice | 12:59 |
| Bluekuja | and then a lot of practice | 12:59 |
| LaserJock | Bluekuja: incuding the Ubuntu Packaging Guide? | 12:59 |
| cbx33 | LaserJock, now that doc rocks.... | 12:59 |
| cbx33 | who wrote that again ? :p | 12:59 |
| Bluekuja | LaserJock: yes you suggested me to read it some days ago | 12:59 |
| LaserJock | some idiot from ubuntu-doc I think | 12:59 |
| cbx33 | i heard he's pretty darn good | 01:00 |
| Bluekuja | LaserJock: and so i followed your suggestion | 01:00 |
| Bluekuja | yeah, its a really nice guide | 01:00 |
| LaserJock | Bluekuja: I just wondered if you actually read it ;-) | 01:00 |
| HedgeMage | lol | 01:00 |
| === cbx33 has | ||
| cbx33 | several times :p | 01:00 |
| Bluekuja | in fact it's one of the best guides i've found in the web | 01:00 |
| LaserJock | great, Ubuntu community strikes again :-) | 01:01 |
| Bluekuja | i want to say Great work to the writer but i dont know who is he :p | 01:01 |
| Bluekuja | hehe jk | 01:01 |
| cbx33 | right I'm off to bed | 01:02 |
| cbx33 | nn #edubuntu | 01:02 |
| HedgeMage | night night cbx33 | 01:02 |
| Bluekuja | anyway very nice work jordan, you have done a great thing | 01:02 |
| Bluekuja | cya pete :) | 01:02 |
| LaserJock | cya cbx33 | 01:02 |
| cbx33 | nn all | 01:03 |
| cbx33 | LaserJock, know who would get that getting started doc into the repo | 01:03 |
| Bluekuja | LaserJock: for how much time have you worked on it? | 01:03 |
| LaserJock | cbx33: I guess I can ask mdke real quick and then commit it | 01:03 |
| cbx33 | nah it;s fine | 01:04 |
| LaserJock | Bluekuja: lots and lots :-) | 01:04 |
| cbx33 | when you get a second | 01:04 |
| LaserJock | Bluekuja: I spent ~ 10 hrs a day for 3 days to finish it | 01:04 |
| LaserJock | right before the doc freeze | 01:04 |
| Bluekuja | LaserJock: well it's a complete guide in every part | 01:04 |
| LaserJock | well, there is a lot more to be done | 01:04 |
| cbx33 | nn guys | 01:04 |
| Bluekuja | LaserJock: yeah, but anyway what is ready now is great | 01:05 |
| LaserJock | I'm pretty excited about what we can do with the Edgy version | 01:05 |
| cbx33 | me too | 01:05 |
| LaserJock | Bluekuja: thank you | 01:05 |
| LaserJock | I'm glad it helped | 01:05 |
| Bluekuja | LaserJock: np :) | 01:05 |
| Bluekuja | yeah, it explains things in a linear way, easy to understand | 01:06 |
| Bluekuja | so you can read it thousand times | 01:06 |
| Bluekuja | without get bored | 01:06 |
| Bluekuja | hehe ;) | 01:06 |
| LaserJock | Bluekuja: did you read the Debian New Maintainers Guide? | 01:09 |
| Bluekuja | LaserJock: of course | 01:09 |
| Bluekuja | LaserJock: also packaging library files | 01:09 |
| Bluekuja | guide | 01:09 |
| LaserJock | Bluekuja: did you find the Ubuntu guide better/easier, honestly? | 01:10 |
| Bluekuja | LaserJock: well in Debian new main guide there are more points covered like debian/* files explanation and so on, anyway Ubuntu Guide is easier to understand and apply | 01:12 |
| Bluekuja | of course, as you said before, its not complete | 01:12 |
| Bluekuja | so maybe in the future when it'll cover more points ,it 'll be perfect | 01:13 |
| Bluekuja | what do you think? | 01:13 |
| LaserJock | ok, cool. that is what I was thinking as well | 01:13 |
| LaserJock | I just didn't have enough time to cover all the topics I wanted to | 01:13 |
| LaserJock | as long as what's there seems good, it will be pretty easy to add a lot more material for Edgy | 01:14 |
| Bluekuja | yeah, exactly. I think that with Edgy release there will be more news from Ubuntu packaging guide side | 01:15 |
| Bluekuja | if you need an hand, just ask | 01:15 |
| LaserJock | specifically, I want to add more on patch systems and making patches, more CDBS, and more actual examples | 01:15 |
| Bluekuja | yeah, right. Examples are important | 01:15 |
| Bluekuja | so add how many examples you can | 01:16 |
| LaserJock | yeah, the problem is getting examples that stay current during the whole release | 01:16 |
| LaserJock | that is why I chose the hello packages | 01:17 |
| Bluekuja | oh oki, have you ever taken a look to library packaging guide? | 01:18 |
| LaserJock | not a lot | 01:19 |
| LaserJock | do you have the URL handy? | 01:19 |

| Bluekuja | exactly crimsum | 01:20 |
| Bluekuja | :) | 01:20 |
| crimsun | the DD should be familiar already (i.e., pbuilder) | 01:20 |
| LaserJock | crimsun: comes to mind? | 01:20 |
| crimsun | LaserJock: ? | 01:20 |
| LaserJock | that url comes to mind? that's a pretty good memory | 01:21 |
| crimsun | it's bookmarked. | 01:21 |
| crimsun | I do have a ridiculous knack for uris, though. | 01:22 |
| LaserJock | my problem is that I use way too many computers so I have different bookmarks on different computers in different browsers | 01:23 |
| crimsun | there are quite a few solutions to that. | 01:23 |
| crimsun | yahoo has their own Web 2.0 or whatever that tracks bookmarks on your personalised site | 01:23 |
| crimsun | I'd be surprised if Google didn't have something similar | 01:24 |
| LaserJock | hmm, I'll have to try that out | 01:25 |
| crimsun | something else to try is http://www2.cali.org/scuttle/about.php | 01:26 |
| LaserJock | I really need a way of tracking things, pieces of paper all over my desk isn't really cutting it | 01:26 |
| crimsun | I'm attempting to find my former co-worker's online bookmark manager at UMN, but her url escapes me atm | 01:26 |
| crimsun | you don't happen to use beagle, do you? | 01:27 |
| LaserJock | no | 01:27 |
| crimsun | (neither do I, but it probably hooks into this somehow) | 01:28 |
| LaserJock | since I'm hardly ever actually *at* an Ubuntu box | 01:28 |
| LaserJock | I've done a personal wiki before, but it is hard to make something that I can access for anywhere | 01:29 |
| crimsun | well, you mentioned wanting to learn Python further. Here ya go: http://pyxml.sourceforge.net/topics/xbel/ | 01:29 |
| LaserJock | hehe, cool | 01:30 |
| LaserJock | crimsun: I guess what I really need is my own server :-) | 01:33 |
| crimsun | that's a bit overkill, really | 01:33 |
| LaserJock | actually, if I had my own wiki space I'd probably be fairly content, as it is I have info spread over ~ 6 computers that may or may not be accessible at any given time | 01:34 |
| crimsun | ...you do have your own wiki space | 01:35 |
| crimsun | you could easily delegate underneath wiki.u.c/$you | 01:36 |
| LaserJock | yeah, but I hate doing that. anyway, I'm getting us waaay OT | 01:36 |

| ogra | jsgotangco, not really | 12:20 |
| jsgotangco | ogra: ive been testing today, so far no issue | 12:20 |
| ogra | seems i386 live is ok now but powerpc broke alongside | 12:20 |
| jsgotangco | ahhh | 12:20 |
| jsgotangco | (amd64 that is) | 12:20 |
| === ogra shakes his fist in pitti's direction | ||
| ogra | he just added all fonts that are used in ubuntu to our cd | 12:21 |
| ogra | err | 12:21 |
| ogra | s/fonts/lnags | 12:21 |
| ogra | *langs | 12:21 |
| cbx33 | did someone say there is a seperate iso for ubuntu server? | 12:23 |
| jsgotangco | ouchhh | 12:24 |
| jsgotangco | cbx33: yes | 12:24 |
| jsgotangco | plesae check cdimage.ubuntu.com | 12:24 |
| cbx33 | thanks jsgotangco | 12:24 |
| jsgotangco | cbx33: we don't really make regular milestone releases for ubuntu-server but we have flight 6 i believe | 12:24 |
| jsgotangco | aside from me i dunno anyone who tests it outside the core team | 12:24 |
| cbx33 | ok that's fine as longas it installs | 12:24 |
| jsgotangco | ogra: yeah i think all the langs are now automatically uploaded | 12:26 |
| cbx33 | one thing I have noticed, is that downloading an iso from the cdimages.ubuntu.com site breaks a lot | 12:27 |
| cbx33 | using wget it's ok it retries | 12:27 |
| cbx33 | but something like ff, which is what a lot of non-techie people will use doesn't | 12:27 |
| cbx33 | JaneW: is our unofficial meeting in here today, and do you want minutes? | 12:28 |
| cbx33 | ogra: do we have the exmaple content in edubuntu cd iso? | 12:29 |
| JaneW | cbx33: just some brief notes if possible | 12:30 |
| cbx33 | ok np | 12:30 |
| cbx33 | is it in here | 12:30 |
| jsgotangco | no we don't have example content if there was it would have already been symlinked to home | 12:31 |
| cbx33 | ok cool was just gonna say that package is massive | 12:31 |
| spacey | ah | 12:32 |
| spacey | meeting soon | 12:32 |
| cbx33 | well 1.5 hours I believe :p | 12:32 |
| spacey | ill try not to forget | 12:32 |
| spacey | mad busy | 12:32 |
| jsgotangco | i need to go home then | 12:32 |
| cbx33 | spacey: i know the feeling | 12:32 |
| spacey | but i do have some cool news, | 12:32 |
| === blue-frog [n=james@88.121.49.252] has joined #edubuntu | ||

| spacey | i'll save it up for the meeting | 12:33 |
| jsgotangco | on what? | 12:33 |
| spacey | =P | 12:33 |
| ogra | cbx33, you are joking, right ? | 12:33 |
| ogra | example-content is >10MB | 12:33 |
| ogra | (probably even >20MB i didnt look for a while) :) | 12:34 |
| jsgotangco | jeezz seems we're really struggling for space... | 12:35 |
| jsgotangco | by the kb... | 12:35 |
| ogra | i'll dropp some essential stuff now ;) | 12:35 |
| cbx33 | ogra: i was joking | 12:35 |
| cbx33 | i just saw it pop up on my dapper upgrade | 12:35 |
| jsgotangco | are you removing build-essential from the cd? | 12:35 |
| ogra | from the livecd | 12:36 |
| jsgotangco | ahh yes | 12:36 |
| ogra | hmm | 12:36 |
| cbx33 | it sux that everyone isn't using DVDs now | 12:37 |
| === cbx33 notes that he isn't yet | ||
| blue-frog | hi | 12:37 |
| jsgotangco | even if they do, it'll take a while to grab a dvd image | 12:37 |
| ogra | gah | 12:38 |
| blue-frog | question to ogra about install from livecd | 12:38 |
| cbx33 | jsgotangco: until the Net 2 comes out :p | 12:38 |
| cbx33 | hahahaha | 12:38 |
| ogra | we dont have it yet ... noting to drop :/ | 12:38 |
| cbx33 | blue-frog: shoot | 12:38 |
| ogra | (build-essential that is) | 12:38 |
| ogra | blue-frog, go for it | 12:38 |
| blue-frog | gives me 2 choices at grub.. ubuntu kernel 2.6.15 AND ubuntu 6.06 LTS | 12:38 |
| blue-frog | first one let's me log in | 12:39 |
| blue-frog | second one ignoers either my user and/or my password | 12:39 |
| jsgotangco | gee | 12:39 |
| blue-frog | what's the difference between the 2 choices? | 12:39 |
| ogra | was there a install on the machine before you used the liveCD for installation ? | 12:39 |
| blue-frog | xp and breezy install | 12:39 |
| ogra | (you should only have one option) | 12:39 |
| === cbx33 has seen these options before | ||
| cbx33 | but I can't remember where | 12:40 |
| blue-frog | made a server install from edubuntu cd as well but on hda8 where i installed from livecd and formated hda8 | 12:40 |
| cbx33 | what does the grub conf say | 12:40 |
| blue-frog | i still have xp and breezy options as well of course.. | 12:40 |
| blue-frog | grub.conf where do I find that? | 12:41 |
| cbx33 | /boot/grub/menu.1st | 12:41 |
| cbx33 | i think | 12:41 |
| blue-frog | going to log in using the kernel 2.6.15 option | 12:41 |
| cbx33 | unless it's changed..... | 12:41 |
| cbx33 | then put the result in a pastebin | 12:41 |
| blue-frog | oh menu lst ok hang on booting | 12:41 |
| blue-frog | ok stop got it | 12:42 |
| cbx33 | :p | 12:42 |
| blue-frog | kernel 2.6.15 is on hda3 | 12:42 |
| blue-frog | now I am not happy about that because... | 12:42 |
| blue-frog | from the live cd install I chose (almost sure but am going to do another install in few minutes | 12:42 |
| ogra | blue-frog, the "server" install willl be dropped during this week, no need to test that | 12:43 |
| blue-frog | was not really testing | 12:43 |
| blue-frog | was surprised to see workstation AND server | 12:43 |
| blue-frog | so I took server at first | 12:43 |
| blue-frog | but i erased it right after installation | 12:44 |
| jsgotangco | dinner brb | 12:44 |
| jsgotangco | see ya at the meeting then | 12:44 |
| blue-frog | so from livecd install I chose hda8 to install but then the installer was talking to me about installing on partiton number 3, I recall that I was surprised to see that yesterday night | 12:45 |
| cbx33 | blue-frog: i remember you saying that | 12:45 |
| blue-frog | am going to boot on breezy format hda8 AND hda3 then will do another install from livecd | 12:46 |
| blue-frog | btw install ffrom dapper-install-i386 hangs up on my sony laptop | 12:46 |
| ogra | blue-frog, you dont happen to run 2.6.15 on your breezy install ? | 12:47 |
| blue-frog | while it runs from livecd (slowly but goes thru anyway | 12:47 |
| blue-frog | no ogra | 12:47 |
| === cbx33 did | ||
| blue-frog | 2.6.12 or so | 12:47 |
| cbx33 | :p | 12:47 |
| blue-frog | 2.6.12.10 fro breezy | 12:48 |
| blue-frog | also ogra I have seen quickly a bit torrent tracker service stopping down yesterday, what is it about? | 12:53 |
| ogra | blue-frog, <Kamion> ogra: please get the user to file a coherent bug report, attaching /boot/grub/menu.lst | 12:56 |
| blue-frog | will do after new install if still the same | 12:56 |
| ogra | its a bt tracker ... to speed up your torrent stuff if you do some ... | 12:56 |
| ogra | its there since breezy already | 12:56 |
| cbx33 | indeed it is :D | 12:57 |
| blue-frog | oh never noticed it in breezy ok then | 12:57 |
| blue-frog | well for grub won't have duplicate stuff as am reasing hda8 AND hda# | 12:57 |
| blue-frog | 3 | 12:57 |
| ogra | if it still appears, please file a bug ... | 12:58 |
| blue-frog | where are the system tools gone? | 12:58 |
| blue-frog | ok got them | 12:58 |
| ogra | and also please wait with reinstalls in such cases, its very important to find all hidden ubiquity bugs | 12:58 |
| blue-frog | ubiquity comes from me now i know as kernel 2.16.15 was on had3 and ubuntu lts was on hda8 | 12:59 |
| blue-frog | was late yesterday so i didn't see that | 12:59 |
| ogra | ah,k | 12:59 |
| blue-frog | that's why i reinstall from livecd after erasing both hda8 and 3 | 01:00 |
| blue-frog | which leaves me only with breezy and xp now | 01:00 |
| ogra | we're all just highly alerted if you find any bug in ubiquity atm ... its our most critical addition in dapper | 01:00 |
| blue-frog | the thing thouthg is that ubuntu lts wouldn't let me log in | 01:00 |
| cbx33 | ogra: is there any more testing you need for ubiquity? | 01:01 |
| ogra | indeed | 01:01 |
| ogra | but not on ppc :) | 01:01 |
| ogra | i'll have to get that back in shape first | 01:02 |
| cbx33 | I can't test ppc | 01:03 |
| cbx33 | unlessyou have a machien to donate to me :p | 01:03 |
| ogra | i only have only one myself ... | 01:05 |
| ogra | (and thats even my main working machine)+ | 01:05 |
| cbx33 | heheh | 01:05 |

| spacey | ok, i'm off to my office, so im on time for the meeting, bbl | 01:14 |
| blue-frog | was too tired yesterday night to make the install. installing from livecd right where I told it to install... so this was my fault to have an install on hda3 insteda of 8 | 01:27 |
| ogra | ah, k | 01:31 |
| blue-frog | one thing though which surprises me, yesterday night took me 45 minutes to install, right now ETA is 20 minutes... weird | 01:32 |

| cbx33 | making him think for himself | 01:35 |
| ogra | you evil guy :P | 01:35 |
| cbx33 | i know I'm awful | 01:37 |
| blue-frog | is the ltsp server activated upon boot with the livecd? | 01:39 |
| ogra | there is no server stuff at all on the liveCD | 01:39 |
| cbx33 | ltsp server isn't on the live cd is it ogra ? | 01:39 |
| === cbx33 is going to be exploring that option | ||
| ogra | neither ltsp nor schooltool is there | 01:40 |
| cbx33 | i have a box I'm not allowed to open or install on.....so a live ltsp server would be great | 01:40 |
| blue-frog | oh ok so the edubuntu livd cd is just a "normal" workstation | 01:40 |
| ogra | you wouldnt have fun with it | 01:40 |
| cbx33 | in essence yes | 01:40 |
| ogra | blue-frog, yep | 01:40 |
| cbx33 | ogra: you said it was easy | 01:40 |
| cbx33 | :p | 01:40 |
| blue-frog | it installs an ltsp server though, correct? | 01:41 |
| ogra | blue-frog, nope | 01:41 |
| blue-frog | :( | 01:41 |
| ogra | its a plain workstation liveCD | 01:41 |
| ogra | and only installs whats in the live session | 01:41 |
| ogra | (shipit wont have the liveCD btw) | 01:41 |
| blue-frog | rats as I can't install from the "normal"cd then.. | 01:41 |
| cbx33 | I have to find a use for this Dual processor machine with 2Gb of ram | 01:41 |
| cbx33 | live cd is my only option :) | 01:42 |
| cbx33 | well the only sensible option | 01:42 |
| ogra | blue-frog, you can install the WS veryion and add the server stuff manually later | 01:42 |
| ogra | its a bit manual work but works as well | 01:42 |
| blue-frog | afraid that i will have to do that, i will try to install on another machine the "normal" edubuntu cd to see if it hangs on me as it does on my laptop | 01:43 |
| JaneW | *reminder* Edubuntu informal meeting here in 15 mins | 01:44 |

| JaneW | ogra normally handles the release announcements (jsgotangco helps) | 02:10 |
| jsgotangco | im drafting a release annoucement | 02:11 |
| cbx33 | :D | 02:11 |
| === ogra [n=ogra@ubuntu/member/ogra] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| === BugMaN [n=BugMaN@nat.cabi.uniroma1.it] has left #edubuntu [] | ||
| jsgotangco | somewhere here... | 02:11 |
| jsgotangco | hmm | 02:11 |
| JaneW | but minutes, council decisions etc need to be scribed and posted | 02:11 |
| cbx33 | yes | 02:11 |
| jsgotangco | usually ogra or JaneW announces the relesae | 02:11 |
| JaneW | cbx33: want to take on that role? | 02:11 |
| cbx33 | sure | 02:11 |
| JaneW | you can delegate as you need to | 02:11 |
| JaneW | so no need to do everything yourself, just make sure it happens | 02:11 |
| ogra | i'm not even sure we'll have separate announcements | 02:12 |
| cbx33 | ok great | 02:12 |
| cbx33 | I'll discuss with ogra when he has a second | 02:12 |
| jsgotangco | ogra: that would be ok i guess | 02:12 |
| jsgotangco | whatever mdz wishes | 02:12 |
| === pips1 will miss JaneW | ||
| === cbx33 too | ||
| === JaneW will miss everyone | ||
| jsgotangco | huh? | 02:12 |
| jsgotangco | did i miss something here? | 02:12 |
| JaneW | I want to see edubuntu girl back in october | 02:13 |
| JaneW | then I'll know I was loved :P | 02:13 |
| jsgotangco | ?????? | 02:13 |
| ogra | jsgotangco, JaneW leaves us | 02:13 |
| pips1 | JaneW firstly it is still not common knowledge, but I will be leaving Canonical in mid-June | 02:13 |
| jsgotangco | can someone give me a cluebut???? | 02:13 |
| jsgotangco | s/cluebut/cluebat | 02:13 |
| jsgotangco | WHAATTTTT | 02:13 |

| ogra | absolutely | 02:14 |
| JaneW | :`( | 02:14 |
| === cbx33 starts the group hug | ||
| jsgotangco | i dunno what to say | 02:14 |
| === ogra hugs JaneW | ||
| JaneW | I am seriously hoping I can come to the oct gathering to see everyone and stay involved | 02:14 |
| === jsgotangco [n=jsg123@ubuntu/member/jsgotangco] has left #edubuntu ["Ex-Chat"] | ||
| cbx33 | :D | 02:15 |
| JaneW | maybe I can get rehired! | 02:15 |
| cbx33 | woohoo | 02:15 |
| JaneW | right in the mean time did the shipit info get added to the FAQ yet? | 02:15 |
| JaneW | cbx33 / highvoltage ? ^^ | 02:15 |
| === cbx33 had no admin acc ess highvoltage said he would take care of it | ||
| JaneW | and for those that don't yet know edubuntu CDS will be available | 02:16 |
| cbx33 | but only in quantities of 5 | 02:16 |
| JaneW | shipit.edubuntu.com | 02:16 |
| cbx33 | isn't that right? | 02:16 |
| pips1 | nice one | 02:16 |
| JaneW | cbx33: for now | 02:16 |
| cbx33 | .org or .com ? | 02:16 |
| JaneW | com | 02:16 |
| ogra | everybody involved in documentation, please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CodeNamesToVersionNumbers | 02:16 |
| ogra | (while we're at it) | 02:16 |
| cbx33 | ogra: yup saw that earlier | 02:16 |
| flint | JaneW, Elkner reports that people are using the current homie artwork spontaneously as their desktops. This is a good thing eh? | 02:16 |
| ogra | this needs to be sorted before release !!! | 02:17 |
| cbx33 | will trawl through what I have seen | 02:17 |
| cbx33 | and correct accordingly | 02:17 |
| ogra | flint, absolutely ! :) | 02:17 |
| cbx33 | ogra: did you also want to mention about the wiki help move thing | 02:17 |
| cbx33 | CategoryDocumentation | 02:17 |
| ogra | nope | 02:17 |
| cbx33 | ok | 02:17 |
| JaneW | flint: yes glad to hear it | 02:17 |
| ogra | since i see the wiki as a more valuable doc place for us currently | 02:18 |
| flint | bbiam | 02:18 |
| ogra | there are not many docs we could move | 02:18 |
| JaneW | ogra: you get to send a big 'told you so' to the art work officials ;P | 02:18 |
| cbx33 | ogra: me too, but I was told it was all moving | 02:18 |
| cbx33 | even edubuntu stuff | 02:18 |
| ogra | JaneW, already tols silbs in #c ;) | 02:18 |
| === jsgotangco [n=jsg123@ubuntu/member/jsgotangco] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| cbx33 | hehe | 02:18 |
| ogra | cbx33, i dont want to have all of it moved and i told Burgwork so | 02:18 |
| cbx33 | ok excellent | 02:19 |
| === mhz [n=mhz@201.214.84.130] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| cbx33 | I had my reservations and was going to voice them to you | 02:19 |
| pips1 | sorry: move wiki content from where to where? | 02:19 |
| === mhz is fnally here ;) | ||
| JaneW | cbx33: highvoltage said he had already given you admin rights on the site | 02:19 |
| ogra | it will do no harm if it gets moved to doc.u.c, but i will kill everybody who deletes edubuntu specific stuff from the wiki | 02:19 |
| JaneW | is that not the case? | 02:19 |
| JaneW | he told me that before I sent the mail to you re the FAQ | 02:19 |
| cbx33 | JaneW: I do have admin now, but I didn't have the content | 02:20 |
| ogra | (as long as we had no time to review and sort it, which wont happen before release) | 02:20 |
| JaneW | cbx33: in mail | 02:20 |
| cbx33 | no, my admin rights didn't work | 02:20 |
| cbx33 | and i didn't get mail.... :S | 02:20 |
| JaneW | OIC | 02:20 |
| === JaneW resends | ||
| cbx33 | thanky | 02:20 |
| cbx33 | will work that up asap | 02:20 |
| === mhz would gladly help with moin stuff | ||
| pips1 | where is highvoltage ? I was busy the last weeks, but now I want to touch base with him re website... JaneW do you know if he will be available, or is he currently too busy? | 02:21 |
| === jsgotangco sits in a corner | ||
| JaneW | pips1: I am not sure | 02:22 |
| pips1 | hmm | 02:22 |
| cbx33 | pips1: anything i can help with? | 02:22 |
| JaneW | pips1: I think he was around earlier and probably will be later | 02:22 |
| pips1 | yeah, I'll try to catch him :-) | 02:22 |
| cbx33 | btw i know highvoltage isworking on the new css theme | 02:22 |
| JaneW | so is our wiki/web responsibility covered? | 02:22 |
| ogra | he wantet to be around occasionally today (chatting via GSM) | 02:22 |
| cbx33 | there is a difference in the php setup between our testing servers and the official edubuntu one, so we have to create it again from scratch | 02:23 |
| pips1 | cbx33, lets talk after this meeting | 02:23 |
| cbx33 | np pips1 | 02:23 |
| pips1 | I mean, if there is other things that need discussion first? | 02:24 |
| pips1 | are | 02:24 |
| === highvoltage checks hilights | ||
| pips1 | JaneW ? | 02:24 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: yes, you have editor rights!!! | 02:24 |
| JaneW | highvoltage: yes yell at him ;) | 02:25 |
| cbx33 | please don;t yell.... | 02:25 |
| pips1 | hey highvoltage | 02:25 |
| JaneW | pips1: ? | 02:25 |
| cbx33 | :( | 02:25 |
| highvoltage | pips1: here briefly again now | 02:25 |
| JaneW | cbx33: joking... | 02:25 |
| cbx33 | I didn't have editor rights at the time,and i never got the email ..... boo hoo | 02:25 |
| pips1 | highvoltage, I want to touch base with you re website! | 02:25 |
| highvoltage | hey pips1 | 02:25 |
| JaneW | cbx33: I think I have too many e-mail addresses for you | 02:25 |
| highvoltage | pips1: okay, we'll talk later, i'll be uploading the new new theme tonight | 02:25 |
| JaneW | and we both had mail server issues | 02:26 |
| jsgotangco | ... | 02:26 |
| cbx33 | JaneW: besides it's already been done :p | 02:26 |
| cbx33 | we did indeed | 02:26 |
| pips1 | highvoltage, when is a good time for you to talk? | 02:26 |
| highvoltage | btw, is there a meeting now? i thought it was canceled? or is this the 'informal get-together'? | 02:26 |
| cbx33 | informal | 02:26 |
| cbx33 | group hugging session | 02:26 |
| JaneW | highvoltage: between you pips1 and cbx33 are the wiki/web maintenance and update functions covered? | 02:26 |
| JaneW | highvoltage: the latter | 02:26 |
| highvoltage | pips1: good question, tonight 7PM'ish? | 02:26 |
| === mhz is surprised how fast highvoltage can type from his cell phone ! | ||
| highvoltage | JaneW: on the web, that won't be a problem, since we planned launch with 6.06 | 02:27 |
| highvoltage | JaneW: wiki will need lots of work still | 02:27 |
| cbx33 | mhz: he has a neural interface :p | 02:27 |
| pips1 | highvoltage, 7pm should work (need to check with my wife though :-) | 02:27 |
| mhz | lol | 02:27 |
| highvoltage | JaneW: cbx33 has been cleaning up a lot of it | 02:27 |
| cbx33 | JaneW: I'm working on wiki when i can, new wiki front page is almost complete | 02:27 |
| === ogra wonders why he just read lunch in highvoltage'S last line | ||
| JaneW | highvoltage: I am most concerned now that someone takes the reigns and makes sure what needs to happen does happen | 02:27 |
| highvoltage | JaneW: and we've got all the pages indexed, so conversion shouldn't cause to many problems | 02:27 |
| cbx33 | I was trying to tie up LTSP pages before release | 02:28 |
| cbx33 | and we've identified pages to be deleted | 02:28 |
| JaneW | I anticipate that edubuntu is going to get more focus in the next release, like kubuntu did in this one | 02:28 |
| highvoltage | JaneW: noted, i can let you at ease in a few hours from now, just need to sort out some stuff at work, and then i'm there | 02:28 |
| highvoltage | JaneW: i'll draw up a plan tonight for the web / wiki version updates | 02:28 |
| jsgotangco | :/ | 02:28 |
| JaneW | and it will be important that the team is organised and functional and seen to be working well, to be given more support and allowed to advance further | 02:28 |
| === mhz crosses fingers JaneW is right about focus | ||
| cbx33 | highvoltage: I'm happy to give my progess reports on it | 02:29 |
| === highvoltage nods | ||
| cbx33 | JaneW: yes i agree | 02:29 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: that would be fantastic | 02:29 |
| cbx33 | np ;) | 02:29 |
| ogra | JaneW, why ? | 02:29 |
| JaneW | the thing is the better a community there is, the more belief there will be in it | 02:29 |
| ogra | JaneW, kubuntu wasnt organized either until recently :P | 02:29 |
| highvoltage | JaneW: sad to see you go for edubuntu, happy for you though | 02:29 |
| cbx33 | hehe | 02:29 |
| JaneW | kubuntu proved itself as serious an sustainable and now it has been given more of a boost | 02:29 |
| cbx33 | we're getting there | 02:29 |
| JaneW | edubuntu wil be looked at similarly | 02:29 |
| cbx33 | and the more we can prove ourselves the more we can push it | 02:30 |
| ogra | yep, but they have a *lot* of users | 02:30 |
| ogra | we're still a niche product (and will stay one) | 02:30 |
| === jsgotangco sulks in a corner | ||
| JaneW | ogra: agreed the space is a bit different, but the principle is the same | 02:30 |
| cbx33 | no reason we ca't have a massive user base, being in education gives us the opportunity for a massive one | 02:30 |
| ogra | i dont think anybody will put the same expectations on us | 02:30 |
| cbx33 | ogra: not initially | 02:30 |
| cbx33 | I hold big hopes for edubuntu | 02:30 |
| JaneW | ogra: don't see it as a negative | 02:30 |
| ogra | even not in the future | 02:30 |
| highvoltage | jsgotangco: being a niche products is often a good thing | 02:30 |
| jsgotangco | we're still niche | 02:31 |
| ogra | JaneW, i dont see that as negative | 02:31 |
| mhz | ogra: if FET is good, then we should have at least 5 Chilean schools using edubuntu (about at least 300 users) | 02:31 |
| ogra | but our audience is very specific ... that wont change | 02:31 |
| highvoltage | i bet you there are more people currently in school (read: potential edubuntu users) than there are kurrently kubuntu users ;) | 02:31 |
| cbx33 | highvoltage: my point exactly | 02:31 |
| jsgotangco | we're still niche | 02:31 |
| JaneW | anyway the point is I do think that if this community shows it is functional and organised it will get a boost | 02:31 |
| ogra | right, but its still a specific audience | 02:31 |
| ogra | JaneW, yep | 02:32 |
| highvoltage | JaneW: noted | 02:32 |
| cbx33 | i think we're pretty well organised in structure terms... | 02:32 |
| JaneW | and I know there is an intention to start pushing into that market space more strongly | 02:32 |
| cbx33 | at least everone know whos in charge of the most important things | 02:32 |
| highvoltage | i think there's lots of plans, it just needs to be implemented | 02:32 |
| ogra | cbx33, we're getting there :) | 02:32 |
| ogra | i'll urgently need more developer help in the future to realize all our ideas | 02:32 |
| === cbx33 wishes he could be that guy | ||
| JaneW | I think the cook book may be a good test of commitment and being able to see something through | 02:33 |
| jsgotangco | yes thats what i was about to say | 02:33 |
| ogra | (read packager help) | 02:33 |
| JaneW | yes and we need more dev help | 02:33 |
| === cbx33 will push himself to the limits for the project | ||
| === jsgotangco should stop procrastinating and push packages | ||
| JaneW | it's been much harder to attract that here because it's niche and the users are not generally devs | 02:33 |
| ogra | yep | 02:33 |
| cbx33 | as ogra know my initial reason for joing ubuntu was to earn packaging | 02:34 |
| cbx33 | learn | 02:34 |
| highvoltage | or the people who want to do dev work are stretched to far as it is :p | 02:34 |
| JaneW | ogra: can EC work with 4, or do we need to look for a 5th? | 02:34 |
| cbx33 | so i could become motu | 02:34 |
| ogra | i see it improving but there is still room for MORE (to quote my boos on the phone ;) ) | 02:34 |
| cbx33 | your boos ???? | 02:34 |
| cbx33 | :p | 02:34 |
| JaneW | ogra: ditto :P | 02:34 |
| ogra | *boss | 02:34 |
| highvoltage | "boos" in afrikaans = "evil" | 02:34 |
| ogra | JaneW, yep, saw that *giggle* | 02:34 |
| JaneW | highvoltage: hehe same thing | 02:34 |
| cbx33 | but i've slowly fallen back into doccing/web/wiki | 02:34 |
| jsgotangco | cbx33: then excel on that don't rush it | 02:35 |
| ogra | JaneW, EC can work with 4, will be harder to get consensus though | 02:35 |
| === cbx33 resolves to redouble his efforts in all areas | ||
| JaneW | also I have mailed the edubuntu install video guy, asking for permission to post it on our site, I'll let you know if/when he responds | 02:35 |
| cbx33 | nice | 02:35 |
| JaneW | I think it helps to have that | 02:36 |
| ogra | JaneW, also i hope canonical wont leave me alone with that ... i expect to at least have a manager aside | 02:36 |
| ogra | who can take the 5th part | 02:36 |
| JaneW | as it can be seen how easy and non-threatening an install is | 02:36 |
| cbx33 | hehe | 02:36 |
| JaneW | ogra: right | 02:36 |
| JaneW | ogra: ndz? | 02:36 |
| highvoltage | geez, yeah this will just put more pressure on ogra :( | 02:36 |
| JaneW | mdz I mean | 02:36 |
| JaneW | sorry! :/ | 02:36 |
| ogra | JaneW, mdz taking your part ?? | 02:36 |
| cbx33 | we'll just have to help out more than ever right ogra ? | 02:37 |
| JaneW | yes | 02:37 |
| ogra | i dont think so | 02:37 |
| jsgotangco | he wouldnt even think of it | 02:37 |
| ogra | cbx33, lets see what happens, JaneW is still here :D | 02:37 |
| cbx33 | of course :p | 02:37 |
| mhz | JaneW: leaving??? | 02:37 |
| jsgotangco | naw let's push her out sooner | 02:37 |
| cbx33 | nooooooooooooooooooooo | 02:38 |
| === cbx33 hugs JaneW tight | ||
| === ogra hits jsgotangco with an edubuntu cake | ||
| JaneW | jsgotangco: you are a meanie | 02:38 |
| === jsgotangco sulks more | ||
| === JaneW unvotes jsgotangco for paris :P | ||
| ogra | heh | 02:38 |
| JaneW | ogra: edubuntu all done for next week? | 02:39 |
| jsgotangco | its pretty good | 02:39 |
| JaneW | ogra: make the homie the default install ;) | 02:39 |
| ogra | JaneW, apart from fighting the oversizedness | 02:39 |
| ogra | haha | 02:39 |
| JaneW | ogra: gah, still? | 02:39 |
| highvoltage | ogra: he is right though | 02:39 |
| ogra | sdilbs would kill me | 02:39 |
| === highvoltage just wants to be hit with an edubuntu cake too | ||
| ogra | highvoltage, i have none left ... after release ;) | 02:40 |
| JaneW | highvoltage: I may just have to make one for next week... | 02:40 |
| cbx33 | w00t | 02:40 |
| jsgotangco | JaneW: don't worry, i will make sure dope wars and porn view get into the default for eft | 02:40 |
| ogra | JaneW, well, pitti added 20 languages to powerpc yesterday ... that was a bit uhmm... much :) | 02:40 |
| JaneW | yikes | 02:40 |
| jsgotangco | JaneW: not to mention make sure the nude wallpapers from warty make a comeback | 02:40 |
| JaneW | tell pitti to rest | 02:40 |
| ogra | even i'd appreciate to have xhosa on the CD :) | 02:40 |
| JaneW | jsgotangco: have you been drinking? | 02:40 |
| cbx33 | I don;t think lisa would be happy about making a nude homies wallpaper :p | 02:41 |
| JaneW | (again) | 02:41 |
| JaneW | ogra: indeed | 02:41 |
| ogra | but i dont think thats what our major audience speaks | 02:41 |
| jsgotangco | JaneW: oh well *sigh* | 02:41 |
| ogra | cbx33, compromise ... bathing dresses ;) | 02:42 |
| cbx33 | : | 02:42 |
| cbx33 | :0 | 02:42 |
| cbx33 | ok....anything left on the agenda? | 02:42 |
| ogra | agenda ? | 02:43 |
| cbx33 | ESA has been frozen | 02:43 |
| cbx33 | the informal agenda :p | 02:43 |
| jsgotangco | really? | 02:43 |
| ogra | hey, its informal :) | 02:43 |
| cbx33 | jsgotangco: yup | 02:43 |
| jsgotangco | did you lace it with strawberries and nuts | 02:43 |
| cbx33 | not yet | 02:43 |
| cbx33 | I'm leaving that for when i port it to scribus | 02:43 |
| JaneW | cbx33: I think the ESA is going to be very valuable | 02:44 |
| cbx33 | currently working it up to go on the website | 02:44 |
| === dave-YL [n=c2df514b@209.152.164.93] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| ogra | it already is :) | 02:44 |
| cbx33 | oh yeh that's what I meant to say... highvoltage there' a problem uploading images to the website | 02:44 |
| JaneW | indeed | 02:44 |
| JaneW | oh wait | 02:44 |
| mhz | cbx33: ESa ready for translation? | 02:44 |
| JaneW | who is going to be official meeting **Reminder** person? | 02:44 |
| JaneW | it's a crucial job :P | 02:44 |
| cbx33 | but , we have to decide what's going to happen with the translated versions | 02:44 |
| === jsgotangco whistles while walking away | ||
| ogra | JaneW, me for now | 02:44 |
| cbx33 | :D | 02:45 |
| ogra | i'm around anyway all the time :) | 02:45 |
| cbx33 | we spoke aobut putting ESA into rosetta | 02:45 |
| JaneW | ogra: ok, but do delegate whenever you can | 02:45 |
| ogra | will do | 02:45 |
| JaneW | ogra: the more responsibility you give the more time you will have, and the more help we'll have! | 02:45 |
| === cbx33 thinks of what the name is for a delagatee.......hmm....oh yeh...i remember minion | ||
| ogra | JaneW, yep, but thats really a trivial job and i have to be around in the meetings :) | 02:46 |
| JaneW | ogra: sure | 02:46 |
| === mhz tries to understand why he makes 2 questions and get no answer...hmmm. | ||
| jsgotangco | mhz: try it in spanish | 02:46 |
| JaneW | also don;t forget reminding the fridge folk about calendar changes | 02:46 |
| ogra | mhz, <cbx33> we spoke aobut putting ESA into rosetta | 02:46 |
| mhz | jsgotangco: hehehe | 02:46 |
| JaneW | for instance I forgot to ask them to remove this one | 02:46 |
| ogra | you had at least one answer | 02:46 |
| ogra | :) | 02:46 |
| JaneW | jsgotangco: you ok? You seem annoyed | 02:46 |
| jsgotangco | :/ | 02:47 |
| mhz | ogra: thx.. that was quick... for a moment I thought I was having more ISP probs. | 02:47 |
| jsgotangco | JaneW: a cluebat would be nice | 02:47 |
| JaneW | I'll be watching edubuntu climbing the distrowatch charts | 02:47 |
| ogra | mhz, and yes JaneW is leaving (to answer the other one) | 02:47 |
| cbx33 | you bet | 02:47 |
| mhz | ogra: sniff :/ | 02:48 |
| ogra | yep | 02:48 |
| ogra | :((((( | 02:48 |
| JaneW | it's doing great already and 6.06 hasn't even released | 02:48 |
| cbx33 | i know | 02:48 |
| cbx33 | we're making an impact | 02:48 |
| JaneW | this time next year edubuntu in all schools! | 02:49 |
| cbx33 | it's here already :p | 02:49 |
| mhz | JaneW: not fair... we need at least one woman... a diff prespective is essential among geeks :) And we only have an edubuntu girl | 02:49 |
| cbx33 | youthlug love it | 02:49 |
| jsgotangco | mhz: don't worry, i can create a new feminine nick for my use | 02:50 |
| dave-YL | second that | 02:50 |
| mhz | JaneW: and EC with a woman participation looked very very cool | 02:50 |
| ogra | we're at place 64 on distrowatch for the 6 months view btw | 02:50 |
| cbx33 | that's all gonna change | 02:50 |
| JaneW | mhz: even if that woman is quite a geek as well? | 02:50 |
| cbx33 | heheh | 02:50 |
| mhz | jsgotangco: but ... it wont be the same... you are not sexy :) | 02:50 |
| === jsgotangco gives mhz a karate chop | ||
| mhz | JaneW: sure! it is still a diff perspective... a very needed one. | 02:51 |
| pips1 | LOL | 02:51 |
| mhz | jsgotangco: LOL | 02:51 |
| pips1 | jsgotangco, what's the matter with you today? | 02:51 |
| ogra | jsgotangco, but he's right ... | 02:51 |
| === cbx33 will try to get lisa in on IRC | ||
| === JaneW is going to miss Mao so much | ||
| ogra | jsgotangco, (compared to JaneW ) | 02:51 |

| ogra | with amarula ! | 02:52 |
| JaneW | yes! | 02:52 |
| mhz | JaneW: well, I hope it is for your best | 02:52 |
| JaneW | everyone has to drink amarula for me | 02:52 |
| === ogra will do that | ||
| cbx33 | :p | 02:52 |
| JaneW | or gold tequila if they prefer | 02:52 |
| === highvoltage likes amarula | ||
| cbx33 | diet coke | 02:52 |
| === mhz only likes Cahipirina | ||
| cbx33 | that's more dangerous to me :p | 02:53 |
| === ogra prefers good scotch | ||
| pips1 | JaneW, your announcement does come quite as a surprise... can't help to wonder... | 02:53 |
| cbx33 | heheh | 02:53 |
| mhz | JaneW: and do you 'need' to leave? (just wondering) | 02:53 |
| === jsgotangco can take anything at the moment | ||
| JaneW | mhz: mojito! | 02:54 |
| mhz | jsgotangco: yeah, blood and brain do need some rest | 02:54 |
| mhz | ;) | 02:54 |
| jsgotangco | mhz: its 9pm i just arrived home, logged it not even eating dinner now i have lost apetite | 02:54 |
| jsgotangco | s/apetite/appetite | 02:55 |
| cbx33 | :( | 02:55 |
| JaneW | pips1: nothing sinister, but the long and odd hours are very difficult to juggle with a family, plus frequent intl travel | 02:55 |
| mhz | jsgotangco: how about a warm nice tea? | 02:56 |
| mhz | JaneW: what if it were mre family friendly? | 02:56 |
| mhz | mre = more | 02:56 |
| ogra | mhz, but that company *isnt* family frinedly | 02:57 |
| ogra | you have to travel a lot | 02:57 |
| jsgotangco | i'd say | 02:57 |
| ogra | stay up for mandantory meetings at 4am etc | 02:57 |
| JaneW | mhz: yes | 02:57 |
| JaneW | the distro team is basically 24/7 | 02:58 |
| JaneW | and that's hard to keep up with, I don;t know how ogra does it | 02:58 |
| ogra | i have on RL | 02:58 |
| ogra | s/on/no/ | 02:58 |
| mhz | ogra: JaneW: and then, are you sure there is no way to work it out? no assistants? is leaving the only option? | 02:58 |
| ogra | which needs to change soon since i have to move and to cope with some big changes here | 02:59 |

| mhz | cope is germany? | 02:59 |
| cbx33 | ogra: big changes ? | 02:59 |
| ogra | cbx33, already ongoing | 02:59 |
| cbx33 | I know the feeling | 02:59 |
| ogra | my GFs mother dies some time ago and we inherited a big house and a handicapped brother | 02:59 |
| ogra | s/dies/died | 03:00 |
| JaneW | anyway I have loved working here, even through the low times, because the high times have been phenomenal | 03:00 |
| pips1 | ogra, wow, big changes indeed | 03:00 |
| cbx33 | ogra: our thoughts are with you | 03:00 |
| JaneW | and during the trips it becomes my life 24/7 and it;s amazing, but at home I have very real responsibilities and they tend to get neglected atm | 03:00 |

| mhz | ogra: hehe, well, I can tell you that I have been taking all the housekeeping part for last 4 years... not fun at all (never got used to it) but it is not the end of the world (as we know it :D ) | 03:06 |
| jsgotangco | i do that a lot | 03:06 |
| mhz | ogra: we can cheer you when needed :) | 03:06 |
| === ogra wonders if her new job will eat less than 10+h | ||
| highvoltage | well, apparently people at vodacom eat a lot | 03:07 |
| highvoltage | they all get fat there | 03:07 |
| jsgotangco | yay | 03:07 |
| ogra | mhz, the hard part is that i dont get *any* sleep anymore, the nurse service for my "brother in law" is comoing at 7am | 03:07 |
| ogra | i wouldnt mid to do all housekeeping ... | 03:08 |
| cbx33 | ogra: you never used to sleep did you? | 03:08 |
| highvoltage | my one friend was always skinny. we used to make fun of him because of that. he started working at vodacom 3 months ago and is already getting fat. | 03:08 |
| ogra | *mind | 03:08 |
| === cbx33 gets about 5 hours now | ||
| === highvoltage seriously, seriously gets back to work and ^A D's | ||
| JaneW | highvoltage: what? | 03:08 |
| ogra | cbx33, my rhythm is to sleep from 4am to 10-11am ... cant do that anymore, thats quite hindering | 03:08 |
| JaneW | highvoltage: no! | 03:08 |

| JaneW | cbx33: wow | 03:09 |
| ogra | and my GF falls asleep at 9pm now ... so we dont meet much anymore even we are in the same house/bed | 03:10 |
| jsgotangco | i sleep from 1 to 6 | 03:10 |
| pips1 | cbx33, insane | 03:10 |
| mhz | ogra: ooops, then, WE need to figure out a way to help you more and work together more closely... (/me still has no idea how... he has not the IT knowledge required but he'll try to bring more help from chilean friend... it is just they are so afraid of english speaking :( ) | 03:10 |
| pips1 | jsgotangco, same | 03:10 |
| JaneW | I sleep from 11-12 till 7. | 03:10 |
| alfredn | install trouble is this a good place to ask a question | 03:10 |
| jsgotangco | pips1: then have a day job from 8 to 6 then some home job from 9 to 11 | 03:10 |
| pips1 | jsgotangco, wooooaah | 03:10 |
| ogra | alfredn, edubuntu install (here is a meeting going on, you'll have to wait a bit) | 03:10 |
| ogra | ? | 03:11 |
| cbx33 | cbx33: it's ok, I can take it, i just crash and burn every few months | 03:11 |
| JaneW | ogra: I think we are done... | 03:11 |
| jsgotangco | then the home job extends further in the weekend depending on what i can think (and write) | 03:11 |
| pips1 | jsgotangco, ok, now I understand your mood today ;-) | 03:11 |
| JaneW | anything else? | 03:11 |
| ogra | JaneW, will you stay around in the channel ? | 03:11 |
| cbx33 | not that I can think of.....big thank you to everyone who helped with ESA | 03:11 |
| JaneW | yes | 03:11 |
| mhz | alfredn: yes.. sure. Is it about edubuntu? | 03:11 |
| ogra | :D | 03:11 |
| JaneW | ogra: but I need to sort out Paris delegates and SoC stuff etc | 03:11 |
| === mhz had to ask.. you know | ||
| ogra | JaneW, i maent after that ;) | 03:12 |
| cbx33 | <!-----------------------notes end here------------------------------> | 03:12 |
| JaneW | ogra:oic | 03:12 |
| mhz | JaneW: I'd be happy to be in Paris :D | 03:12 |
| === ogra should have asked "will we see you here during edgy" | ||
| === jsgotangco goes out for a smoke | ||
| JaneW | ogra: yes I hope so | 03:12 |
| === mhz had to say it | ||
| JaneW | mhz: me too | 03:12 |
| ogra | great :) | 03:12 |
| pips1 | JaneW, what's officially going to be the last day? | 03:12 |
| ogra | jsgotangco, good idea ! | 03:12 |
| JaneW | ogra: I am certainly going to try to visit often | 03:13 |
| ogra | :)) | 03:13 |
| JaneW | pips1: still being discussed with mngmt | 03:13 |
| alfredn | Thanks: Yes, new install freezes on booting off the cdrom, the cd checks fine in cd check, the thing is I have a scsi card adaptec 2940 and a scsi drive for the system. I tried on an another machine with the same problem | 03:13 |
| jsgotangco | ogra: im pretty upset (very) but i understand | 03:13 |
| === _michel [n=michel@80.78.19.92] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| ogra | jsgotangco, about what are you upset (i didnt get it= | 03:14 |
| ogra | ) | 03:14 |
| === mhz had to say it/ | ||
| mhz | jsgotangco: anything we can do to ease the 'upset part' in you? | 03:14 |
| mhz | alfredn: hmm, let me understand... your CD drive is scsi? | 03:14 |
| ogra | oh, job stuff | 03:14 |
| ogra | alfredn, live or install CD ? | 03:15 |
| alfredn | mhz: sorry, no the cdrom is ide the harddrive for the system is scsi | 03:15 |
| mhz | ooh | 03:15 |
| alfredn | mhz:no it is not a live cd I think it is called casper? | 03:15 |
| ogra | casper is the core part of the liveCD | 03:15 |
| ogra | how much ram does that machine have ? | 03:15 |
| alfredn | ogra:Hello, the machine has 500 plus, it is running dapper now but I want to | 03:16 |
| alfredn | switch from ide to scsi and a clean install was my hopes | 03:16 |
| alfredn | bty: | 03:16 |
| ogra | if you see casper, you have a liveCD | 03:16 |
| alfredn | I downloaded the cd yesterday from the first link on the edu site | 03:16 |
| mhz | alfredn: sorry, I have not yet tested liveCD ( | 03:16 |
| ogra | oh, thats even outdated | 03:17 |
| ogra | try one of these http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/edubuntu/daily/current/ | 03:17 |
| alfredn | this is the link I used. http://releases.ubuntu.com/edubuntu/6.06/edubuntu-6.06-beta2-live-i386.iso | 03:17 |
| alfredn | is there any chance it will work or should I get the other? | 03:17 |
| ogra | get the other | 03:18 |
| ogra | (indeed there is a chance it works ok, but its ~1 month outdated) | 03:18 |
| mhz | cbx33: well, I wouldn;t mind meeting a geek girl like that :D (but a woman's version) http://www.progbox.co.uk/jane.jpg | 03:18 |
| ogra | mhz, you never met JaneW eh ? its *very* similar | 03:19 |
| alfredn | Alright I will go download the other be back in a bit, BTY is there any probs with scsi and install | 03:19 |
| alfredn | can I pass any boot parameters | 03:19 |
| === cbx33 's wife is a little bit geeky though she wouldn't admit it. | ||
| JaneW | ogra: not true, she is not clutching a bottle of amarula | 03:19 |
| ogra | true :) | 03:19 |
| JaneW | or whielding a whip | 03:20 |
| cbx33 | she plays LAN games of CS when everynow and then | 03:20 |
| mhz | ogra: I have seen pictures and NOPE, I was not comparing at all. It would be nice to meet "more girls" like that in a woman's version (I prefer women over girls) :D | 03:20 |
| cbx33 | and is an ace web designer | 03:20 |
| ogra | alfredn, it should *just work* | 03:20 |
| alfredn | ogra:alright I will download the other, | 03:20 |
| jsgotangco | or wearing a nurse costume | 03:20 |
| ogra | JaneW, i was expecting the whip to be on the belt behind her back ;) | 03:20 |
| jsgotangco | or fishnet stockings | 03:20 |
| mhz | jsgotangco: lol!!! you are back!! | 03:20 |
| ogra | jsgotangco, hehe | 03:21 |
| jsgotangco | mhz: my laptop has wireless i can smoke outside | 03:21 |
| mhz | cool | 03:21 |
| JaneW | jsgotangco: I will think of you when I wear my nurse outfit | 03:21 |
| mhz | and JaneW, if you look like that in person...then DONT LEAVE!! | 03:22 |
| mhz | :D | 03:22 |
| jsgotangco | do i look sick??? | 03:22 |
| pips1 | jsgotangco, overworked? | 03:22 |
| mhz | jsgotangco: nope, you dont look, you ARE :) | 03:22 |
| pips1 | hehe | 03:22 |
| jsgotangco | or someone you can abuse with your medical equipment? | 03:22 |
| pips1 | I hope we never get any school children wandering into this channel... | 03:23 |
| jsgotangco | pips1: yep, people don't believe it since i work in the games industry, but debugging games all day can be boring | 03:23 |
| ogra | mhz, she does ... (she even looks better than the drawing ;) ) | 03:23 |
| pips1 | jsgotangco, i see | 03:24 |
| mhz | ogra: then we gotta clone her | 03:24 |
| ogra | yeah | 03:24 |
| mhz | ogra: you know how hard it is to get rally sexy geek girls | 03:25 |
| mhz | really | 03:25 |
| pips1 | jsgotangco, online games? | 03:25 |
| mhz | and who makes good cakes! | 03:25 |
| jsgotangco | pips1: online, console, mobile | 03:25 |
| ogra | yep | 03:25 |
| mhz | .oO(we'll lose too much) | 03:25 |
| JaneW | ogra: *blush* thanks - flattery will get you everywhere! | 03:26 |
| jsgotangco | pips1: im currently doing online | 03:26 |
| pips1 | jsgotangco, I'm just reading this article about closed vs. open source development... | 03:26 |
| ogra | JaneW, :) | 03:26 |
| === pips1 goes to find the url | ||
| jsgotangco | pips1: we're very much closed at the moment :/ | 03:26 |
| jsgotangco | pips1: but most ofthe backend stuff runs on linux | 03:27 |
| mhz | cbx33: so, if i translate from wiki version into spanish wiki syntax... is it still ok with you? | 03:27 |
| mhz | (plnas) | 03:27 |
| mhz | plans | 03:27 |
| pips1 | http://www.armchairarcade.com/aamain/content.php?article.78 | 03:27 |
| cbx33 | mhz: hold fire for a while | 03:28 |
| pips1 | but I suppose you know the story pretty much | 03:28 |
| cbx33 | I'm still finding out what people want to do with it | 03:28 |
| === jsgotangco reads | ||
| mhz | cbx33: hmmm, I would say that it works for dapper | 03:28 |
| cbx33 | yeh it does | 03:29 |
| cbx33 | but we need ot decide what are you going to do with the translated versions | 03:29 |
| cbx33 | as great as it will be....what use will it serve? | 03:29 |
| cbx33 | don;t get me wrong | 03:29 |
| cbx33 | I want you to translate them | 03:29 |
| jsgotangco | pips1: the model isn't applicable to consoles due to IP reasons (as well as hw manufacturers taking profit from devkits) | 03:29 |
| cbx33 | but something someone said to me makes me think...I want to have place for it before you put all that hard work into it | 03:30 |
| jsgotangco | the DS devkit that we bought before was really expensive | 03:30 |
| pips1 | console = closed by definition almost | 03:30 |
| jsgotangco | yes | 03:30 |
| jsgotangco | online has better chances | 03:30 |
| pips1 | yes | 03:30 |
| jsgotangco | mobile not so much either due to carriers wanting a slice always | 03:30 |
| pips1 | hmm, interesting, i didn't know that | 03:31 |
| jsgotangco | the greediest in the mobile content space are record companies | 03:31 |
| pips1 | ring tones, eh | 03:32 |
| jsgotangco | real tones even | 03:32 |
| pips1 | well, nowadays, music as ring tones... | 03:33 |
| jsgotangco | even if there would be revolution on commons content on the mobile space, the carrier will still earn from the transaction | 03:33 |
| pips1 | or do you mean "natural" recordings, e.g. a dog barking or smth? | 03:34 |
| jsgotangco | yes | 03:34 |
| jsgotangco | let's say a recording artist | 03:34 |
| pips1 | right | 03:34 |
| jsgotangco | some content providers instead, use cover tones | 03:34 |
| jsgotangco | (not the original artist but the same song) | 03:34 |
| jsgotangco | so they only pay royalty to the song publisher | 03:35 |

| pips1 | yeah... let's not talk about this too much, i'll have to leave this "open source dreamworld" otherwise ;-) | 03:36 |

| jsgotangco | ryan_rousseau: not so much at the moment, let's wait for the formal announcement for Ubuntu, but if you want to do some advance work and share, feel free we can look on it | 03:56 |
| mhz | jsgotangco: if only I could use Moin to impact emails into it... that would be fantastic: "According to OurLastMeetingAgenda and considering [blablabla this email] we would like to propose... " | 03:57 |
| mhz | MoinMailClient/Server | 03:57 |
| ryan_rousseau | jsgotangco: any idea when the formal announcement will come? | 03:58 |
| mhz | To: MarkShuttleworth | Subject: MeetingRecord20060524 | 03:58 |

| jsgotangco | ryan_rousseau: JaneW is sorting it as we speak, probably this week | 03:59 |

| mhz | ogra: 2 more tests yesterday: 1 default install (diff hardware) 1 upgrade from BETA version to daily | 04:02 |
| mhz | ogra: only issues I got were Gcompris | 04:02 |
| mhz | cbx33: 2) ESA would be great notice text for media coverage here in Chile | 04:03 |
| mhz | and good "translation work" to start motivating more spanish speakers to do smething for edubuntu | 04:03 |
| ogra | mhz, gcompris ? | 04:03 |
| mhz | ogra: yeah, it closes down, no warning | 04:04 |
| ogra | can you file a bug, its the second time i hear that | 04:04 |
| mhz | and unfortunatelly, I wont get back to that lab until tomorrow | 04:04 |
| ogra | sad, thats to late | 04:05 |
| mhz | so I didnt get the output | 04:05 |
| mhz | ogra: yeah, sorry | 04:05 |
| ogra | also please note what you tested on the wikipage | 04:05 |
| mhz | I got that problem around 22 PM and they were kicking me out of the lab :) | 04:05 |
| mhz | ogra: what you mean? "you tested on the wikipage" | 04:06 |
| mhz | (that's why I'd love to test and have a home-lab) | 04:06 |
| ogra | please note your findings on the wiki, our QA manager needs that | 04:06 |
| mhz | oooh, yeah! sure | 04:07 |
| jsgotangco | amd64 auto partition check | 04:07 |
| mhz | I have been taking notes on paper so I wiki them | 04:07 |
| ogra | only what you tested... no notes required | 04:07 |
| ogra | add it to the table | 04:07 |
| mhz | jsgotangco: my 'trying-to-use-Moin-in-Jornada728' failed :( | 04:08 |
| mhz | so I use paper :( | 04:08 |
| jsgotangco | mhz: please have pity on such poor hardware | 04:08 |
| mhz | ogra: okis, i see the diff | 04:08 |
| mhz | jsgotangco: my only hope is Zaurus SL-5500.. but.. battery lasts 2 hours and I have no other battery available to even buy one | 04:09 |
| jsgotangco | i have apache/php/mysql running on my zaurus before | 04:09 |
| mhz | yeah, me too | 04:09 |
| mhz | it rocked | 04:10 |
| jsgotangco | so you can actually run mediawiki on it | 04:10 |
| mhz | hehehe | 04:10 |
| mhz | moin is my choice | 04:10 |
| jsgotangco | mhz: its ok to flirst sometimes | 04:10 |
| jsgotangco | flirt | 04:10 |
| mhz | .o(though mediawiki sounds interesting...but still power issue) | 04:10 |
| mhz | and Opie is always freezing my Zaurus | 04:11 |
| mhz | now I remember why bought the jornada ... I could use Debian there | 04:11 |
| mhz | but then I need 1 GB CF :D | 04:12 |
| mhz | more expensive than getting a Zaurus battery :D | 04:12 |
| jsgotangco | i can't remember who is compiling ubuntu for arm here... | 04:12 |
| mhz | heheh | 04:12 |
| mhz | I asked around, and found a wiki page too | 04:12 |
| mhz | cbx33: well, those are moy 2 points | 04:14 |

| jsgotangco | doh | 04:53 |
| === ryan_rousseau [n=rousseau@204.90.50.252] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| ogra | only one wallpaper and one splash | 04:53 |
| jsgotangco | doh x2 | 04:54 |
| ogra | (even though a usplash was planned) | 04:54 |
| ogra | but we took a community one ;) | 04:54 |
| jsgotangco | ogra: gee honestly that wallpaper can be easily done by community imo | 04:54 |
| jsgotangco | (or much even better) | 04:54 |
| ogra | which intrestingly was later voted as the best by the artteam | 04:54 |
| jsgotangco | the splash was good though | 04:54 |
| ogra | silbs didnt trust us, mark and silbs both thought edubuntugirl was a bad ide | 04:55 |
| ogra | a | 04:55 |
| ogra | so we should get something "professional" this time | 04:55 |
| pips1_ | ogra, I think it's a good non-intrusive default wallpaper, slightly cold though, I agree | 04:57 |
| pips1_ | and we got the gang, of course, which is very cool :) | 04:58 |
| ogra | someone called it the "berlin wall" which is a very good name imho :P | 04:58 |
| pips1_ | LOL | 04:58 |
| === ogra wont reveral that *someone* | ||
| ogra | :) | 04:58 |
| pips1_ | no, the berlin wall was even more colorful ;-) | 04:58 |
| pips1_ | (on the western, side, anyway) | 04:59 |
| pygi | we lost some nice applications :( | 04:59 |
| pips1_ | pygi, which ones? | 04:59 |
| ogra | lost ? | 04:59 |
| jsgotangco | lol | 04:59 |
| ogra | how ? | 05:00 |
| ogra | search them if you lost them ! | 05:00 |
| pygi | ogra, duplication of students (were accepted by several orgs) | 05:00 |
| ogra | but thats not *lost* | 05:00 |
| ogra | they do still the same but for another org | 05:00 |
| === jsgotangco thinks if we show this wallpaper to the OLPC it won't even get voted | ||
| pygi | no, it doesnt have to mean they do the same | 05:00 |
| pygi | they mostly do other work, not this one | 05:00 |
| ogra | YAY | 05:03 |
| ogra | http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/edubuntu/daily-live/current/ has fixed isos finally | 05:04 |
| pygi | nice ... | 05:04 |
| pygi | and ogra, sorry for bothering the other day...I know you were busy :) | 05:04 |
| ogra | pygi, i'm still busy :) sorry for being harsh | 05:05 |
| pygi | busy until forever :-P | 05:05 |
| pygi | no problem at all, no worries :) | 05:05 |
| ogra | nah only until next week | 05:05 |
| pips1_ | ogra, any testing that is particularly important at this moment? | 05:05 |
| ogra | as everyone in the distro team | 05:06 |
| pips1_ | (besides testing everything) | 05:06 |
| ogra | nobody gets enough sleep currently etc | 05:06 |
| pygi | ogra, not enough sleep is always good :) | 05:06 |
| ogra | pips1_, everything is fine :) | 05:06 |
| pips1_ | hehe | 05:06 |
| ogra | just fill that wikipage to make sfllaw happy ;) | 05:06 |
| ogra | so it seems we have room for more languages on the liveCD, any suggestions anybody ? | 05:07 |
| pygi | ogra, Croatian? :) | 05:08 |
| pips1_ | duh, wiki: The authentication database is temporarily unavailable. Anonymous access only. | 05:09 |

| ogra | jsgotangco, *if* it survives and we still have space left, any suggestions for one or two asian languages i should add ? | 05:58 |
| jsgotangco | i'd probably go to hangeul (korean) which is close to my heart | 05:59 |
| jsgotangco | but the chinese might get pissed | 05:59 |
| ogra | we currently have en, fr, es, de on the liveCD | 05:59 |
| jsgotangco | heh | 05:59 |
| jsgotangco | i will ask how good is the support for -ko | 05:59 |
| ogra | chinese means at least 3 extra languages i think | 05:59 |
| jsgotangco | that's correct | 05:59 |
| jsgotangco | i would really go for korean heh | 06:00 |
| ogra | i'll flip a coin i think | 06:01 |
| ogra | :) | 06:02 |
| jsgotangco | if you put chinese, you're facing 3 languages | 06:02 |
| jsgotangco | if you add japanese, you'll have to put some chinese fonts | 06:02 |
| jsgotangco | but if you put korean, you're adding a language of its own | 06:03 |
| ogra | we have all the asian fonts in anyway | 06:03 |
| ogra | so its only about language packs | 06:03 |
| jsgotangco | yeah | 06:03 |

| Burgwork | blue-frog, it is the next Ubuntu development conference | 06:35 |
| Burgwork | end of June | 06:35 |
| blue-frog | oh so it's only ubuntu staff? | 06:35 |
| Burgwork | and kubuntu/edubuntu/xubuntu | 06:35 |
| blue-frog | i mean is it public? | 06:36 |
| blue-frog | for non ubuntu members, non canonicals? | 06:36 |
| ogra | yes | 06:37 |
| blue-frog | can i read that somewhere on ubuntu site? | 06:37 |

| === arkan0x [n=arkan0x@201.215.87.19] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| ogra | blue-frog, yes, i see them, but there are no small ones | 06:44 |
| ogra | only the svg's | 06:44 |
| blue-frog | aren't the svg supposed to be done for that purpose, reduce the number of icons as they are scalable? | 06:45 |
| ogra | and you cant scale svg down to 16x16 or 24x24 it looks awful | 06:45 |
| blue-frog | ah ok | 06:45 |
| ogra | so you'd have to create manually the 16x16 and 24x24 variants with thicker lines etc | 06:45 |
| blue-frog | but then how come firefox is taken for example? | 06:46 |
| ogra | sad that you reported it today, since i cant do anything about it now | 06:46 |
| blue-frog | am not sure i understand where those icons are taken then | 06:46 |
| ogra | ff will likely have a bitmap version for smaller sizes | 06:46 |
| ogra | (i havent looked and i'm to busy to get the RC isos done currently) | 06:47 |
| michel | how can we put an icon on the display for edubuntu | 06:47 |

| cbx33 | with all this wiki movement business going on, | 06:51 |
| cbx33 | what's ahppening with LTSP | 06:51 |
| ogra | keep it | 06:51 |
| cbx33 | you said we're moving that to Ubuntu | 06:51 |
| cbx33 | so is it moving into edubuntu? | 06:51 |
| ogra | its far from being complete for d.u.c | 06:51 |
| cbx33 | ok | 06:52 |
| cbx33 | no problem | 06:52 |
| ogra | no, just keep it so we can complete it on the wiki | 06:52 |
| cbx33 | shall i move out all the category documentation from all ltsp documentation? | 06:52 |
| ogra | no matter where its kept | 06:52 |
| cbx33 | I'll remove CategoryDocumentation from them all | 06:52 |
| cbx33 | so they don;t get ported | 06:52 |
| cbx33 | thanks | 06:52 |
| cbx33 | I'll let you get back to it | 06:52 |

| highvoltage | edubuntugirl: choose upload new edubuntu theme even though it's not 100% done yet or not | 07:00 |
| edubuntugirl | I choose upload new edubuntu theme even though it's not 100% done yet, highvoltage | 07:01 |
| ogra | heh | 07:01 |
| highvoltage | yay | 07:01 |
| blue-frog | michel did you manage to do it as per ogra'sindication? | 07:01 |
| ogra | hmm, sindication ... :) | 07:01 |

| blue-frog | well am gonna eat but can't leave without a last thing on icons :) | 07:02 |
| blue-frog | properties of a launcher, choose icon >> doesn't let me choose anything else than xpm or png, can't choose svg for example.. | 07:03 |
| blue-frog | no am drunk again sry | 07:04 |
| Burgwork | cbx33, what do you need? | 07:04 |
| blue-frog | works perfectly | 07:04 |
| ogra | yep | 07:05 |
| ogra | Burgwork, we dont want to have our wiki docs moved, how can we prevent that | 07:05 |
| Burgwork | ogra, remove them from cat doc | 07:05 |
| ogra | (but we want to keep them categorized as docs in some way) | 07:05 |
| Burgwork | add a new cat CategoryEdubuntuDocumentation | 07:05 |
| ogra | cbx33, ^^^ | 07:06 |
| ogra | Burgwork, sounds sane | 07:06 |
| Burgwork | I would seriously recommend that you move your own docs off the wiki at some point as well | 07:06 |
| ogra | there is simply too much WIP still for most of them | 07:06 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: any chance that you can send me individual images of the gangstakids? | 07:06 |
| ogra | Burgwork, sure if they are finished, but we have a help category in the drupal setup where we wanted to have our docs on www.edubuntu.org some day | 07:07 |
| ogra | Burgwork, and ubuntu/edubuntu covering doc stuff like LTSP docs are still WIP and need a lot of work | 07:08 |
| ogra | (also i'm not happy at all about the decision to put docs in a closed environment like docs.ubuntu.com, makes collaboration pretty hard) | 07:08 |
| highvoltage | ogra: where does that decision come from? | 07:10 |
| ogra | highvoltage, docteam :( | 07:10 |
| highvoltage | ogra: i mean, did they decide on a docs.edubuntu.org too? | 07:11 |
| highvoltage | i'm not against the docs.edubuntu.org, if it means that it's not closed, as you say | 07:11 |
| ogra | nope, not to my knowledge | 07:11 |
| ogra | well, contributions can only happen through svn | 07:11 |
| ogra | which is not even a versioning system we use anywhere else in ubuntu | 07:12 |
| ogra | if i have a say on edubuntu docs we'll have them in bazaar | 07:12 |
| highvoltage | sounds good | 07:13 |
| highvoltage | then it can integrate with launchpad too | 07:13 |
| ogra | yep | 07:13 |
| ogra | i never understood the decision for svn... but then, i'm not in the doc team :) | 07:14 |

| highvoltage | i think doc people like svn | 07:18 |
| highvoltage | (not just ubuntu docteam, but doc people in general) | 07:18 |
| ogra | might be :) | 07:19 |
| highvoltage | this is depressing. the new theme does the same on the canonical server :/ | 07:20 |
| highvoltage | seems to be a problem with the php version on breezy | 07:20 |
| highvoltage | i'm going to get znarl to give us another db, so that we can revert to the old site | 07:21 |
| highvoltage | then when the server is upgraded to dapper, we can use the new theme | 07:21 |
| Burgwork | ogra, the decision for svn was made a long time and it does make sense for us | 07:22 |
| Burgwork | we have a big build infrastructure that is shared amongst all the various projects and it would not make sense to split that up | 07:23 |
| ogra | Burgwork, i know when it was taken | 07:23 |
| ogra | we have a big infrastructure based on bazaar as well for all other distro parts ;) | 07:24 |
| Burgwork | yep, but doc toolchain is kind of unique | 07:24 |
| ogra | but indeed its our decision and if it makes sense for you *shrug* | 07:24 |
| Burgwork | we recognize that svn makes it hard to do certain thing | 07:24 |
| Burgwork | things, even | 07:24 |
| ogra | yes, like getting cotributions from developers :P | 07:25 |
| Burgwork | yep | 07:25 |
| ogra | (who are all used to bzr ;) ) | 07:26 |
| Burgwork | but it does make it easy to build the docs into various forms | 07:26 |
| ogra | yep | 07:26 |
| Burgwork | the major issue we currently have with svn is that we don't directly control access to it | 07:26 |
| Burgwork | we need elmo to add somebody | 07:26 |
| ogra | i wonder how the supermirror will cope with that | 07:26 |
| cbx33 | Burgwork, I hear ya on that one :p | 07:34 |
| cbx33 | highvoltage, I can get individual images.....want them on a white background? | 07:35 |
| cbx33 | ogra, I'll add a new category | 07:35 |
| cbx33 | wow three messages to three different peole :p | 07:35 |
| ogra | multitaksing :) | 07:35 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: white would be ok. transparent would be better :) | 07:36 |

| cbx33 | don;t know if you saw that I said that earlier | 07:42 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: nope | 07:43 |
| pips1 | cbx33, what is the problem with files? what do you want to do? | 07:43 |
| cbx33 | i tried to add all the images for ESA | 07:43 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: but i'm logged in there now, can you go there so that we can fix it now? | 07:43 |
| cbx33 | yeh sure | 07:43 |
| cbx33 | I went to files attachments | 07:43 |

| pips1 | cbx33, where do you want to add files in drupal? | 07:46 |
| pips1 | (I'm logged in now) | 07:46 |
| highvoltage | ogra: do we still need the development status on the edubuntu wiki frontpage? it seems depricated | 07:46 |
| cbx33 | into the edubuntu in schools document | 07:46 |
| cbx33 | highvoltage, that's what I think | 07:46 |
| ogra | highvoltage, drop it | 07:46 |
| highvoltage | cool | 07:47 |
| pips1 | highvoltage, you upgraded to drupal 4.7.0 ? | 07:48 |
| cbx33 | yes | 07:48 |
| pips1 | ah | 07:48 |
| pips1 | did you add any modules yet? | 07:48 |

| cbx33 | petesavage@ubuntu.com | 07:49 |
| highvoltage | pips1: yes, and it turns out it doesn't like breezy + any phptemplate themes :/ | 07:49 |
| cbx33 | highvoltage, think we shuld standardise page titles wrt capital letters | 07:50 |

| highvoltage | on the wiki? | 07:50 |
| cbx33 | frequently asked questions | 07:50 |

| highvoltage | ah i see | 07:51 |
| blue-frog | Michel comment va la mise en place d'edubuntu? | 07:51 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: no, your right, there should be conformity | 07:51 |
| pips1 | highvoltage, yeah, the changed the default template engine in 4.7 :-/ | 07:51 |
| cbx33 | indeed | 07:51 |
| cbx33 | and the new template works.... | 07:51 |
| cbx33 | just not on canonical server | 07:52 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: let's go with /WikiStylePageNames | 07:52 |
| pips1 | cbx33, i see | 07:52 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: and keep the title inside the pages Proper Case Titles | 07:52 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: that way we keep everyone happy :) | 07:52 |
| cbx33 | ok sure | 07:52 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: it works fine on dapper though, as you pointed out :/ | 07:53 |
| pips1 | highvoltage, what's the problem re breezy and drupal? | 07:53 |

| Burgwork | salut Amaranth | 07:54 |
| cbx33 | i said it work on 4.7.0 | 07:54 |
| ere | I have a problem with LTSP and Ubuntu Dapper (regular ubuntu, not edubuntu). Sound works well with one thin client, but not with an old Compaq deskpro with a ESS1869 audio chip. The driver is not loaded when the client boots. lts.conf countains SOUND = Y, and sound works with the other client. How can I manually load the driver for ESS1869? (the sb module) | 07:55 |
| highvoltage | hmmm... what can possibly be different on the edubuntu server? | 07:55 |
| pips1 | I would have thought that the versions of php/mysql on breezy should just work fine with 4.7.0 | 07:55 |
| === pips1 checks | ||
| highvoltage | ere: you need a MODULE_01 = sb | 07:56 |
| highvoltage | in your lts.conf | 07:56 |
| cbx33 | highvoltage, I'm not sure, would be nice...oooh? | 07:56 |
| pips1 | highvoltage, you tried to upgrade the drupal content, right? (rather than doing a complete new install from scratch) | 07:56 |
| cbx33 | had an idea | 07:56 |
| highvoltage | pips1: i did it like they say you should in drupal docs. 1) basically do a new install, 2) point to database, 3) run /update.php | 07:57 |
| pips1 | right | 07:57 |
| ere | highvoltage: I think I have tried that, how can I confirm that the module is really loaded? | 07:57 |
| highvoltage | which worked fine locally, and on another remote server running FC5, but not on the edubuntu server :/ | 07:57 |
| === C-O-L-T_ [n=icechat5@193.231.163.10] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| pips1 | hmm | 07:57 |
| cbx33 | highvoltage, I belive error reporting must be turned off | 07:58 |
| cbx33 | in php | 07:58 |
| highvoltage | ere: you can 'sudo chroot /opt/ltsp/i386 passwd' on the server, and set a root password | 07:58 |
| cbx33 | what about turning it on for just drupal | 07:58 |
| highvoltage | ere: then you can press ctrl+alt+f1 on a thin client, log on as root, and use lsmod | 07:58 |
| cbx33 | to see what the issue is? | 07:58 |
| cbx33 | I mean 4.7 is preferable is it not? | 07:58 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: i'm not following you... | 07:58 |
| ogra | ere, SOUND=Y works ? are you sure you are using ubuntus ltsp-server package ? | 07:59 |
| cbx33 | well, you can set php environment variables in a php script | 07:59 |
| ogra | (its not supposed to work with Y) | 07:59 |
| cbx33 | my idea was to add a line o the drupal install to show us the error | 07:59 |
| ere | ogra: erhm, maybe it was something else, I don't remember exactly. I experiment with LTSP at work and not at home where I'm now. | 08:00 |
| ere | ogra: but I use ltsp-server | 08:00 |
| ogra | ere, SOUN=True or SOUND=False are what we use in ubuntu ... a boolean variable should use boolean values ;) | 08:01 |
| ogra | *SOUND=True indeed | 08:01 |
| pips1 | cbx33, yes, 4.7 is definitely preferable | 08:01 |
| pips1 | highvoltage, cbx33 so what are the problems with the drupal setup on the live server at the moment? a) theme broken b) file attachments don't work and what else? | 08:02 |
| cbx33 | that's it as far as I can see | 08:03 |
| pips1 | right | 08:03 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: can you try uploading a file again? i've changed permissions. that should be a minor issue. | 08:03 |
| highvoltage | the theme is a bit more important for me right now | 08:03 |
| cbx33 | ok | 08:03 |
| cbx33 | hang on | 08:03 |
| pips1 | re a) highvoltage what did you do to fix the theme? | 08:04 |
| highvoltage | pips1: well, non of the phptemplate themes work on the live site, so right now we're using a very simple theme | 08:04 |
| cbx33 | done :p | 08:04 |
| pips1 | ah, got you | 08:05 |
| highvoltage | pips1: i initially thought it was just the spreadfirefox theme that had some strange stuff in it, but then i noticed the same problems with friendselectric | 08:05 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: done? the upload? | 08:05 |
| cbx33 | yup | 08:05 |
| highvoltage | great | 08:05 |
| pips1 | you have to install the template engine | 08:06 |
| pips1 | ? | 08:06 |
| highvoltage | pips1: any suggestions / ideas? | 08:06 |
| pips1 | hold on, I'm trying to remember what i did... | 08:07 |
| pips1 | you installed the phptemplate engine on 4.6 to be able to use spreadff, is that correct? | 08:07 |
| cbx33 | highvoltage, phptemplate is included by default I thought | 08:07 |
| pips1 | cbx33, it wasn't the default in 4.6, AFAIK | 08:07 |
| cbx33 | no but in 4.7 it should be | 08:08 |
| pips1 | yes | 08:08 |
| cbx33 | I thought I read...I'm not sure, but I think | 08:08 |
| pips1 | yes, I think you are right | 08:08 |

| pips1 | well, my guess is that the phptemplate install directory changed, since 4.7 now uses it by default, and that the "old" theme is pointing to the wrong directory, or smth. but as I said, this is just blind assumptions | 08:17 |
| cbx33 | true | 08:17 |

| highvoltage | pips1: if you can instlal it on a breezy machine, that would be great | 08:18 |
| cbx33 | highvoltage, a redirect ok? | 08:18 |
| pips1 | on a breezy machine? oh, ok, I could do that. but I wanted to use my dapper test server. why do you want me to do it on breezy? | 08:19 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: yep, that's cool then | 08:19 |
| highvoltage | pips1: that's what's running on the edubuntu server. if you'd like to reproduce that environment, then a breezy server would be best. but if you want to install on dapper, nothing wrong with that either :) | 08:20 |
| pips1 | ok, I see | 08:20 |
| cbx33 | highvoltage, the only thing I can think of is addind something like | 08:20 |

| cbx33 | I fforget | 08:20 |

| LaserJock | ogra: basically, if you want help you should go to help.ubuntu.com, not help.ubuntu.com + wiki.ubuntu.com | 08:29 |
| cbx33 | and | 08:29 |
| cbx33 | ; - display_errors = On | 08:29 |
| cbx33 | but i nthe ini_set format | 08:29 |
| LaserJock | and wiki.ubuntu.com has a mix of user documentation and specs, and developer work | 08:30 |
| ogra | yep | 08:30 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: hold that thought, brrb | 08:30 |
| cbx33 | np | 08:30 |
| ogra | i see *your* (docteams) point, but i dont agree from a user pov :) | 08:30 |
| ogra | (as i didnt for the wiki merge) | 08:30 |
| LaserJock | ogra: I actually am the other way around | 08:30 |
| LaserJock | I don't see it from the doc team member point of view, but I see it as a user pov | 08:31 |
| LaserJock | well, I see it less from the doc team point of view, I should say | 08:31 |
| LaserJock | as a new user, I hated that I had to go all over *.ubuntu* to find help | 08:32 |
| LaserJock | we will have 1 url to remember, help.ubuntu.com | 08:32 |
| LaserJock | plus it alows for much better searching | 08:32 |
| cbx33 | LaserJock, may i as k again how people will update it | 08:32 |
| LaserJock | cbx33: just like the current wiki | 08:33 |
| cbx33 | so we will have 2 wikis? | 08:33 |
| LaserJock | no | 08:33 |
| LaserJock | and yes | 08:33 |
| LaserJock | we will have 1 user documentation wiki and 1 development + specs wiki | 08:33 |
| cbx33 | supersition of states ??? :S | 08:34 |
| cbx33 | you don;t know what wiki you'll get till you observe it :p | 08:34 |
| LaserJock | but for now it I think it is just a copy + redirect | 08:34 |

| LaserJock | anyway, I don't know all the in's and out's of this thing, but there was a spec and it was approved and we got a server for it | 08:36 |
| LaserJock | the actual move should happen fairly soon as we want everything in place for the release | 08:36 |
| cbx33 | thanks LaserJock | 08:36 |
| cbx33 | please don;t hink I was attacking you :p | 08:37 |
| LaserJock | no, not at all | 08:37 |
| LaserJock | I had lots of reservations about it to begin with to | 08:37 |
| cbx33 | just confuses me, i suppose cos I've just got settled with moin and the wiki | 08:37 |
| LaserJock | yeah, change always makes people who know the current system uneasy | 08:38 |
| LaserJock | ogra: and btw, I've been working on testing using bzr for the doc team | 08:38 |
| === cbx33 likes svn | ||
| cbx33 | but can see that the lp integration would be good | 08:39 |
| cbx33 | so I'll let that one slide :p | 08:39 |
| LaserJock | I like both | 08:39 |
| ogra | LaserJock, and ? | 08:39 |
| ogra | ah :) | 08:39 |
| LaserJock | ogra: well, at this point it isn't ideal. we would have to change our workflow quite a bit | 08:39 |
| LaserJock | basically it came down to, slowness and needing space to publish | 08:40 |
| ogra | it makes merging soo much easier | 08:40 |
| LaserJock | we don't really do a lot of merging | 08:41 |
| cbx33 | svn access would make my life easier :p | 08:41 |
| LaserJock | somew cases when there is rapid development (ESA for instance) it is a bit tough | 08:41 |
| LaserJock | but for the most part we have a couple doc team members for each doc and contributors just send patches | 08:42 |
| cbx33 | seems to work ok.... | 08:42 |
| cbx33 | apart from my getting-started page :p | 08:42 |
| LaserJock | I liked the idea of being able to split the repo up, but that would take a lot of retooling | 08:42 |
| LaserJock | anyway, I do have a bzr branch on doc.ubuntu.com for people to test with | 08:44 |
| LaserJock | but I found it soooo slow to do anything, or I had to do a lot of work to get things to work right | 08:44 |
| LaserJock | but I'm hopeful that in the future we can move to LP/bzr | 08:45 |
| LaserJock | I love bzr for local revision control | 08:45 |
| ogra | yeah | 08:47 |
| LaserJock | but it seems really clunky to me for remote stuff | 08:48 |

| HedgeMage | hi cbx33 | 08:50 |
| HedgeMage | good morning :P | 08:50 |
| LaserJock | I spent a couple hours with lifless trying to figure out how to use it, and I'm about the most bzr-literate of the doc team | 08:51 |
| lucasvo | LaserJock: it takes hours but it works very easy with sftp | 08:52 |
| cbx33 | that's my only issue with it is that it's very very slow | 08:53 |
| blue-frog | sry where has gconf editor menu gone pls? | 08:53 |
| LaserJock | lucasvo: if you have a public place to sftp too | 08:53 |
| ogra | blue-frog, alt-f2 | 08:53 |
| blue-frog | raah | 08:53 |
| blue-frog | ty | 08:53 |
| blue-frog | so it's simply gone :) | 08:54 |
| ogra | yep | 08:54 |
| ogra | as every other "non user related" item | 08:54 |
| LaserJock | lucasvo: the problem for the doc team is having a place where people can publish branches | 08:54 |
| LaserJock | and do it efficently | 08:54 |
| cbx33 | give me svn + webdav | 08:55 |
| lucasvo | LaserJock: isn't there a LP supermirror? | 08:55 |
| cbx33 | i can do it from behind a proxy then :p | 08:55 |
| lucasvo | cbx33: as well as bzr+webdav | 08:55 |
| cbx33 | indeed | 08:55 |
| cbx33 | didn;t know that was available | 08:55 |
| ogra | lucasvo, not done yet ... but it should come soon | 08:55 |
| lucasvo | LaserJock: in that case ask canonical to add a user for the docteam | 08:55 |
| lucasvo | ogra: too bad | 08:56 |
| === lucasvo is convincing his friend not to use SF and start using LP | ||
| ogra | lucasvo, its huuuge, it requires hundrets of terabytes of imports first .. | 08:56 |
| ogra | thats going on since hoary ... | 08:56 |
| LaserJock | lucasvo: they problem is non-docteam members | 08:57 |
| lucasvo | yup | 08:57 |
| lucasvo | just give them access as well :) | 08:57 |
| LaserJock | for doc team people we can give them space, but for the random contributor it is a bit much to ask for them to publish a ~150MB branch all the time | 08:58 |
| cbx33 | LaserJock, I agree | 08:58 |
| LaserJock | lucasvo: that would be like us opening Main to anybody who wants to upload a package ;-) | 08:58 |
| cbx33 | whist I love contributing | 08:58 |
| cbx33 | I don't have the space for hat right now | 08:58 |
| cbx33 | do it do it do it | 08:59 |
| cbx33 | :p | 08:59 |
| cbx33 | highvoltage, I'm still holding that thought....but it's getting wriggly now :p | 08:59 |
| lucasvo | LaserJock: yup | 09:00 |
| LaserJock | if we could split the repo up into chunks it would at least be more managable | 09:01 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: i'm getting some help from the druapl channels... | 09:01 |
| cbx33 | ok | 09:01 |

| ogra | LaserJock, we had cotacted ofset back when we had the edubuntu summit, but they didnt want to come iirc | 09:15 |
| LaserJock | I was reading through the Knoppix Hacks book I bought some time ago and they mention it | 09:15 |

| cbx33 | yeh we thought about jubuntu too | 09:18 |
| HedgeMage | I haven't been in #drupal and #drupal-support lately, I should put them back on my autojoins | 09:18 |
| LaserJock | I don't know anything about drupal, but that isn't anything new. | 09:20 |

| HedgeMage | LaserJock: I love drupal! | 09:21 |
| LaserJock | I am slowly resigning myself to the fact that I will never even approach the knowledge I want | 09:21 |
| HedgeMage | hehe | 09:21 |
| HedgeMage | but isn't trying fun? | 09:21 |
| LaserJock | sort of | 09:22 |
| LaserJock | frustrating and discouraging mostly at this point | 09:22 |
| HedgeMage | :( | 09:22 |
| cbx33 | LaserJock, me too | 09:22 |
| LaserJock | I currently spend my time bouncing between the Doc Team, MOTU, and Edubuntu, but never *really* knowing any | 09:23 |

| cbx33 | ogra just said developers in general | 09:48 |
| ogra | people with knowledge and upload privs | 09:48 |
| cbx33 | but if you want to specifiy ogra we can change it | 09:48 |
| cbx33 | I'll add that | 09:48 |
| ogra | or people who just send patches etc | 09:48 |
| LaserJock | yeah | 09:48 |
| ogra | i.e. Yagisan once sent me a small patch that grew several heads later and became our multiarch support in ltsp ... | 09:49 |
| LaserJock | yeah, Yagisan is awesome | 09:49 |

| cbx33 | nicely done highvoltage2 | 09:56 |
| cbx33 | wicked :) | 09:56 |
| bluefrog-10 | normal compared to install from livecd | 09:56 |
| cbx33 | LaserJock, seriously keep me in mind for your python project :D | 09:56 |
| ogra | bluefrog-10, our install CD is your "normal" CD | 09:56 |

| bluefrog-10 | and i rsync edu install cd 2 hours ago | 09:59 |
| ogra | bluefrog-10, at which speed tot you burn that CD ? | 09:59 |
| ogra | *did | 09:59 |
| === ogra stares at his keyboard | ||
| bluefrog-10 | don't remember but at 10 i would presume with k3b, choosing verify cd at boot prompt tells me cd is fine | 10:00 |
| bluefrog-10 | 10 cause RW | 10:00 |
| ogra | i usually recommend 8x max ... but 10 might still work ... | 10:00 |
| bluefrog-10 | going to burn another brand just in case | 10:02 |
| bluefrog-10 | at 8 | 10:03 |
| bluefrog-10 | now i have to overburn but did the same with livecd so.. | 10:03 |

| highvoltage | bluefrog-10: how big is your edubuntu cd? | 10:06 |
| bluefrog-10 | iso as per 2 hours ago 694 | 10:07 |
| bluefrog-10 | cd 700 | 10:07 |
| ogra | it *must* fit on 700M media without overburn ... thats how debian-cd on the builders is set up | 10:08 |
| bluefrog-10 | well if overburn is not necessary k3b doesn't use it.. | 10:08 |
| bluefrog-10 | .. I think | 10:09 |
| highvoltage | bluefrog-10: try from the command line: | 10:09 |
| highvoltage | cdrecorf -v -dao -eject cd.iso -dev /dev/hdd speed=8 | 10:09 |
| highvoltage | where /dev/hdd is your cdrom device and cd.iso the name of the cd image | 10:09 |
| bluefrog-10 | yes yes | 10:09 |
| highvoltage | urgh, replave cdrecorf with cdrecord | 10:09 |
| bluefrog-10 | i finish burning on another cd brand, then while the install will run will do that on another cd | 10:10 |
| === ogra never used k3b in his life | ||

| ogra | nautilus is soo much easier for burning isos | 10:12 |
| highvoltage | k3b is very nice. better than nero under windows imho | 10:12 |
| bluefrog-10 | oh yes never think of it | 10:12 |
| highvoltage | graveman is getting there fast too... | 10:12 |
| bluefrog-10 | highvoltage, how do you erase cd from command line if I may , pls? | 10:13 |

| bluefrog-10 | ah noticed something when I had dapper installed few hours ago | 10:15 |
| bluefrog-10 | about shared folders.. at first I chose samba only, and then I wanted to enable nfs as well, never could, wasn't given the choice | 10:16 |

| === HedgeMage ponders | ||
| HedgeMage | I'm wondering if I should pick something common and likely to be frequently used, or something obscure and interesting | 04:04 |
| ogra | do you plan to go to canada ? then pick french ;) do you plan to go south, pick spanish :) | 04:06 |
| HedgeMage | hehe | 04:06 |
| HedgeMage | If I'm smart, I probably will start with a Romance language, as I already know Latin they should be pretty easy for me | 04:07 |
| HedgeMage | Hubby's best friend is a bit of a linguist, I should find out what he knows so I have someone to practice on :) | 04:09 |
| HedgeMage | then again, when all else fails, there are always random IRC people, so I'll at least get the written/read bits down no matter what I leran | 04:09 |

| Laser_away | if I install ltsp-server on an Ubuntu install can I use the Edubuntu documentation on setting up a LTSP server? | 05:43 |
| mhz | Laser_away: hmmm | 05:53 |
| mhz | not sure.. Edubuntu LTSP, IIRC, it uses a diff approach than regular LTSP | 05:53 |
| mhz | Edubuntu forwards X all the time | 05:53 |
| mhz | and AFAIK, LTSP does not work the same way | 05:54 |
| mhz | Edubuntu works via ssh forwarding | 05:54 |
| jsgotangco | its the same | 05:56 |
| mhz | jsgotangco: are you sure? | 06:20 |
| jsgotangco | why would it diverge from ubuntu itself? | 06:20 |
| mhz | why would I know the answer? | 06:20 |
| mhz | it does install diff dirs | 06:21 |
| mhz | and it does use diff config files | 06:21 |
| jsgotangco | mhz: i wouldn't count on it | 06:21 |

| === Burgundavia [n=corey@ubuntu/member/burgundavia] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| mhz | many people have installed LTSP but not Edubuntu-server | 06:21 |
| jsgotangco | it doesn't make sense to me if edubuntu ltsp is different from ubuntu ltsp | 06:21 |
| mhz | jsgotangco: ok, maybe you are right on the point that the "technology" is the same | 06:22 |
| mhz | but the installation is indeed different | 06:22 |
| jsgotangco | i was talking about ubuntu and edubuntu not other implementations of ltsp from diff distros | 06:22 |
| mhz | me too | 06:22 |
| mhz | if you install LTSP server (ubuntu) you will edit config files in locations that do not correspond to the ones installed by edubuntu-server | 06:23 |
| mhz | actually, you edit /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf for edubuntu-sever | 06:23 |
| mhz | while in normal ubuntu ltsp you do not have that file there | 06:24 |
| mhz | (that was an example, only) | 06:24 |
| mhz | (and it is also a fact) | 06:24 |
| jsgotangco | there maybe differences, but it should be trivial imo | 06:25 |
| === spacey [n=herman@ubuntu/member/spacey] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| mhz | Laser_away: bottom line, you can try, of course. LTSP will work in the end. But if you ask in the sense of "edubuntu support", the logical thing is to follow edubuntu steps/docs ;) | 06:43 |

| highvoltage | oooh, this is nice: http://www.thinkgeek.com/computing/input/8396/zoom/ | 07:36 |
| mhz | highvoltage: it is confirmed... FET will be on June 20 and 21st | 07:36 |
| highvoltage | whohoo! | 07:37 |
| mhz | therefore, you won't be here :( | 07:37 |
| highvoltage | mhz: you must feel very relieved hey? | 07:37 |
| highvoltage | mhz: ok, i'm happy for you though :) | 07:37 |
| mhz | honestly... it is as terrible news as JaneW not continuing in Edubuntu :( | 07:37 |
| highvoltage | mhz: just make sure there's another FET next year ;) | 07:37 |
| highvoltage | mhz: nah, it's not as bad as that at all | 07:37 |
| highvoltage | mhz: i'm sure you'll do just fine | 07:38 |
| mhz | well, that is the idea, as well as we'll have the Institute and Edubuntu Chile working as a distro cutomized for low Chilean hardware school pc's | 07:38 |
| highvoltage | nice, you know what they're goign to base it off from? | 07:38 |
| mhz | highvoltage: then, I wanted to tell you "personally" about this | 07:39 |
| mhz | highvoltage: what you mean? | 07:39 |
| mhz | oh, I guess, Edubuntu-server + XFCE | 07:39 |
| mhz | GNOME is really killing my older hardware performance | 07:40 |
| highvoltage | ah ok. nice | 07:40 |
| highvoltage | yeah, we're going to use Edubuntu + Xubuntu in tuxlabs too | 07:40 |
| mhz | and normal server-boxes are not higher than 2 Ghz of processor and 1 GHz of RAM | 07:40 |
| Burgundavia | what is default memory usage for XFCE like? | 07:40 |
| highvoltage | it doesn't really kill the thin clients as much as it kills the server | 07:40 |
| highvoltage | ouch @ 1GM of RAM | 07:40 |
| mhz | yeah, true | 07:41 |
| highvoltage | Burgundavia: just a sec, i'll get you some stats | 07:41 |
| mhz | highvoltage: re FET/ you said you could propose a friend of yours? | 07:41 |
| highvoltage | Burgundavia: http://lists.debian.org/debian-edu/2005/09/msg00067.html | 07:42 |
| highvoltage | mhz: yes, i think i can | 07:42 |
| highvoltage | mhz: i can phone him in about 30 minutes, when other people start arriving at the office | 07:42 |
| Burgundavia | highvoltage, wow, almost half | 07:43 |
| Burgundavia | I hope this nautilus performance stuff comes through | 07:43 |
| highvoltage | Burgundavia: yep, and xfce has come a long way, it's much more prettier and usable than it used to be | 07:43 |
| mhz | Burgundavia: see? that's why we need to customize stuff here in Chile | 07:43 |
| highvoltage | and not only is xfce less memory intensive, it's less CPU intensive as well | 07:43 |
| mhz | highvoltage: indeed. Jani, Nomed and others have been putting lots of work in xubuntu | 07:44 |
| highvoltage | and it doesn't have fancy animations like when you minimize a window in gnome, which does nothing more but waste network bandwidth on ltsp | 07:44 |
| Burgundavia | it would nice if xfce and gnome could figure out a longterm merge plan | 07:45 |
| mhz | when I talk to nemd and see his work.. I can't help thinking of him as anohter ogra. | 07:45 |
| mhz | nemd = nomed | 07:45 |
| Burgundavia | highvoltage, you should file some bugs upstream to get some gconf keys for turning off the fancy stuff | 07:46 |
| highvoltage | mhz: i talked to jani about a month ago, and he said dapper version of xubuntu will have ltsp as well as an option | 07:46 |
| highvoltage | mhz: so you could start with the xubuntu cd, and then just install the other apps on top of that | 07:46 |
| mhz | highvoltage: re FET/ If I can have his CD in the next 5 hours in my inbox, then I might have a chance to suggest him as a replacement for you, considering he has experience on those labs in southafrica | 07:46 |
| highvoltage | Burgundavia: yeah. | 07:47 |
| === highvoltage notes that | ||
| highvoltage | mhz: yes, he's an ideal person to come and talk about it, and although he's also extremely busy, i'm sure he'd love to come and talk | 07:47 |
| mhz | highvoltage: and how diff could it be to install Edubuntu and then Xubuntu on top? As long as I use xubuntu I should have same better results in server performance? | 07:48 |
| mhz | highvoltage: does he look like the Manchester United player too? | 07:48 |
| === mhz is using xubuntu on top of edubuntu | ||
| highvoltage | mhz: well, with hair like that, he definately looks like a soccer player :) | 07:49 |
| highvoltage | mhz: yes, you could do it that way around as well, but you just end up with more install cd's | 07:50 |
| highvoltage | (since you're shipping gnome, which you won't really be using) | 07:50 |
| mhz | The plan so far is to keep Edubuntu Chile so we can make clear we still work with same devel group nad we just have 2 alternatives for schools. Gnome and XFCE... they choose. The diff for us, is that we'll customize language, artwrok, install, etc. A11y is also an important target. | 07:51 |
| mhz | yeah, i see your point but we still need GNOME (which could be installed after xubuntu-edu-lstp environment) so end-users may see similarities to M$ | 07:52 |
| mhz | highvoltage: re FET/ if he can send me both the letter and his CV during next 5 hours, then I'll be glad to suggest him as a YOU | 07:53 |
| mhz | after that, I can't really promise anything | 07:53 |
| mhz | BTW, your CV had the format/layout they wanted here, so it was cool. | 07:54 |
| highvoltage | ok, I'll get Hilton to pass his info on to you | 07:54 |
| mhz | highvoltage: THX a lot and I am sorry Mark has moved the Paris event for June too :( | 07:58 |
| highvoltage | hehe. all his fault eh? | 07:58 |
| mhz | now, if I could get about 50 Edubuntu Dapper CD's and t-shirts... I could also do something interesting during FET | 07:59 |
| mhz | highvoltage: yeah! | 07:59 |
| mhz | :D | 07:59 |
| highvoltage | mhz: strip while throwing out edubuntu cd's? | 07:59 |
| mhz | LOL! | 07:59 |
| mhz | nah, that was why YOU were coming here | 08:00 |
| mhz | hmmm.... "wet contest = Wet Edubuntu T-Shirts contests!!!" | 08:00 |
| mhz | w.e.t | 08:00 |
| Burgundavia | oh, sorry, but I don't want to see most of the people who work on Edubuntu naked/topless | 08:01 |
| mhz | Burgundavia: oh come on! why do you think they chose Paris? | 08:01 |
| Burgundavia | right | 08:01 |
| mhz | highvoltage: do you know this person? Heather Ford or Daniela Faris? | 08:10 |
| mhz | http://ubuntu.typepad.com/ | 08:11 |
| highvoltage | mhz: i know Heather Ford | 08:11 |
| highvoltage | mhz: creative commons chick | 08:11 |

| mhz | Recently appointed Acting Executive Director of iCommons, Heather is also helping to help establish an Intellectual Property Research Unit at the Link Centre and a new NGO called The African Commons Project. | 08:13 |
| mhz | if any of those is potentially geek, man, I'll gladly try to flirt with her and convince her to be my "friend" :) | 08:15 |

| mhz | and if she looks like JaneW and/or has that tattoo...I'd die! | 08:30 |

| mhz | Burgundavia: nah, I dont think so. The way I see it, we are just talkng about some profiles of potential candidates to become part of the Edubuntu family, or not? | 08:33 |

| mhz | oh, and if you did, I am sure you would try its reflexes | 08:38 |
| mhz | ;) | 08:38 |

| HedgeMage | hi blue-frog | 10:32 |
| blue-frog | ahve finally found out where my installs "hangs up" on my vaio laptop. get a black screen at xserver configuration | 10:32 |
| blue-frog | so I believe I can continue the install as the cd is still running and the HDD as well, but I have to finish it blind | 10:33 |
| pips1 | blue-frog, good luck! | 10:37 |
| blue-frog | yep especially if it's asking me where to put grub :( | 10:37 |
| blue-frog | from memory i think it's the next step after asking screen resolution | 10:38 |
| pips1 | isn't there a screenshot series that documents the default installation routine? | 10:39 |
| cbx33 | JaneW: https://wiki.edubuntu.org/EdubuntuMeetingRecordsNew | 10:39 |

The install goes on but I have to do it blind, and as I have multiple OS on the laptop at some point it must be asking me to configure grub and this where I fail (doing it blind..) I loaded a livdecd to try to install grub correctly but am having a hard time with it now | 11:30 |

| blue-frog | please I have edubuntu dvd, at boot time how do I enter rescue mode from the dvd? | 11:42 |
| cbx33 | thanks all on the minutes feedback | 11:52 |
| blue-frog | folks where has the prompt gone when you boot on the install cd? | 11:52 |
| blue-frog | Pls anyone, I have no prompt at boot time with install cd, only the diffrent choices from menu, is that normal, am i missing something, must I use F6 to enter rescue mode? | 12:00 |
| cbx33 | blue-frog: that is normal | 12:00 |
| blue-frog | yes but then how do we enter rescue mode from install cd pls? | 12:01 |
| cbx33 | I don;t know :S - never had to do it | 12:01 |
| blue-frog | should be a choice in the menu fro rescue mode then, don't you think? | 12:01 |
| blue-frog | or get rid of the rescue mention in the help menu | 12:02 |
| blue-frog | I 'd prefer a rescue mode choice as it could help me setup grub on my vaio laptop | 12:03 |
| ogra | you said you have the dvd, there should be a possibility to use the live image, there you have the rescue mode in the menu | 12:04 |
| blue-frog | ok so how do i do that pls, choose start or install edubuntu? | 12:05 |
| ogra | blue-frog, i havent tested the DVD yet, no idea | 12:06 |
| blue-frog | rahh :( | 12:06 |
| ogra | but i know both isos are on there and there should be a menu at the start where you can select between live and install | 12:06 |
| blue-frog | for the black screen problem should I report it as a bug? | 12:06 |
| blue-frog | if i hit start or install edubuntu or if i hit install a workstation it starts the install/live direct.. no prompt at anytime | 12:07 |
| blue-frog | thought about the F6 key and added rescue at then end but with no luck | 12:07 |
| ogra | blue-frog, indeed, thats a bug, but check if it doesnt ecist yet, sony is a big brand id imagine someone had this prob before you | 12:09 |
| jsgotangco | ogra: good morning :) | 12:09 |
| ogra | heya | 12:10 |

| ogra | break ? | 01:52 |
| pips1 | yeah, eating properly is important | 01:52 |
| ogra | whats that ? | 01:52 |
| pips1 | omg | 01:52 |
| cbx33 | i eat all day | 01:52 |
| cbx33 | :D | 01:53 |
| highvoltage | i just couldn't get myself to concentrate on a long document, so i'm just going to relax for 10 minutes, and then get back to it. people say that it would work. | 01:53 |
| cbx33 | nice | 01:53 |
| cbx33 | highvoltage: it does | 01:53 |
| cbx33 | if you get the chance | 01:53 |

| jsgotangco | gahh | 01:54 |
| cbx33 | highvoltage: did it | 01:54 |
| cbx33 | :p | 01:54 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: do you think that should be better on the wiki instead? | 01:55 |
| ogra | he's the QA guy these two last weeks are the most important for him | 01:55 |
| cbx33 | yes, just link through on the drupal site? | 01:55 |
| highvoltage | pips1: hehe. it turns out, that there was nothing wrong with the theme engine | 01:55 |
| highvoltage | pips1: even though everything (and everyone) pointed there | 01:55 |
| pips1 | oh? | 01:55 |
| highvoltage | pips1: it turns out, the theme has some specific settings about blocks that go to the right, and that we just needed to change it | 01:56 |
| highvoltage | pips1: what *is* weird though, is that it didn't happen on my or cbx's local installations, just on the edubuntu server | 01:56 |

| ogra | yep | 01:57 |
| ogra | and his target is to get *all* fields filled on the testing page :) | 01:57 |
| ogra | for all flavors | 01:57 |
| highvoltage | good target :) | 01:57 |
| pips1 | the layout breaks on pages with big images in the centre... e.g. http://www.edubuntu.org/gettingstarted | 01:57 |
| highvoltage | pips1: i noticed this afternoon, i'll have to resize those images just slightly | 01:58 |
| pips1 | right | 01:58 |
| highvoltage | at least that's quick and easy :) | 01:59 |
| highvoltage | (oh no! i said quick and easy! that means it's going to be long and nasty!) | 01:59 |

| cbx33 | yes | 02:11 |

| pips1 | ogra, how does it work with the universe repository? can packages be added for a release, during the release? or is universe "freezed" also? | 02:30 |
| ogra | universe has the same freeze dates, but a way more loosely handling of them | 02:31 |
| pips1 | ic | 02:31 |
| ogra | and its frozen on release day | 02:31 |
| ogra | so nothing can be added after release unless you use the backports repo or someone decides something is important enough to go in -updates | 02:32 |
| ogra | development and adding of packages only happens in the development distro | 02:32 |
| pips1 | hmm, there is this particular zope package I'm interested in... the latest from upstream is in the repos, but many of its dependency packages are missing... | 02:33 |
| pips1 | what is the packaging "philosophy" in this case? is that package considered to be broken? | 02:36 |

| cbx33 | can we condense | 03:06 |

| highvoltage | yes, that would be great | 03:06 |

| cbx33 | ok | 03:07 |
| cbx33 | want me to do that | 03:07 |
| cbx33 | I can just copy paste all pages into one? | 03:07 |

| ogra | (i dont mean a LP spec, just that people know its only a brainstorming page) | 03:19 |

| mhz | blue-frog: good news | 06:40 |
| blue-frog | if i install edubuntu on my laptop using the livecd install then do apt-get edubuntu server, the final result will be exactly the same than installing from edubuntu install cd? | 06:41 |
| mhz | blue-frog: yup | 06:44 |
| mhz | apt-get install edubuntu-server | 06:44 |
| blue-frog | yes yes | 06:44 |
| mhz | apt-get install edubuntu-desktop | 06:45 |
| blue-frog | *lazy on keyboard...* | 06:45 |
| mhz | and finally, ltsp-build-client | 06:45 |
| mhz | then you should have same results | 06:45 |
| blue-frog | desktop no need as am using edu livecd | 06:45 |
| mhz | oh, yes | 06:45 |
| mhz | sorry | 06:45 |
| mhz | that was kind of an automated response :) | 06:45 |
| mhz | blue-frog: I also tried netbooting and then the aforementioned procedure | 06:46 |
| blue-frog | I could try to wipe my entire HDD so that I can let the install finish blind but I don't want to reinstall freaking windows I use for my tests of miexd networks | 06:46 |
| mhz | of course, that gave a ubuntu server netboot install only because Edubuntu does not have a netboot image | 06:47 |
| blue-frog | I have a problem with edu/ubuntu install on my sony. I have a black screen at the xserver resolution config, then the install goes on alright but as I have windows am messing up the grub install (as I do it blind). tried to install grub from rescue mode afterwrds following wiki but with no luck | 06:49 |

| Laser_away | lol | 06:54 |
| blue-frog | got a ubuntu question | 06:54 |
| blue-frog | the install asked me for a password but not for a user account name, is that a trick to confuse the ennemy? | 06:55 |
| blue-frog | which leaves me at login scrren without a user name to write in | 06:55 |
| Laser_away | which install? | 06:55 |
| blue-frog | ubuntu cd install | 06:55 |
| blue-frog | was surprised to jump directly to password during install that I did a go back | 06:56 |
| blue-frog | but then jumped again to password so i thought oh well there must be a default user name | 06:56 |
| blue-frog | such as admin or ubuntu, but apparently not | 06:57 |
| === mhz has no idea what to suggest there | ||
| blue-frog | gonna go in recovery mode to have a look | 06:58 |

| cbx33 | w00t | 07:50 |
| blue-frog | to be sure cause I have a doubt now, on the edubuntu install cd, when I choose install workstation, it's installing an edubuntu server? | 07:50 |
| cbx33 | i fixed the python problem | 07:50 |
| cbx33 | and i have made an update | 07:50 |
| ogra | blue-frog, its installing what you chose ... a workstation .... | 07:51 |
| cbx33 | ogra, did you see my message earlier about that VMware install that failed | 07:51 |
| ogra | (in opposition to a server, which is the default) | 07:51 |
| ogra | cbx33, yes | 07:51 |
| ogra | did anybody else any test installs ? | 07:51 |
| blue-frog | I think am pretty much messed up with the cd's I have downloadded then | 07:52 |
| blue-frog | i have 7 choices on this dvd, amogst them are start or install edubuntu and install a workstation so if i choose first I install edu server or am i using a livecd? | 07:55 |
| blue-frog | booting a livecd... so i have the wrong dvd :( | 07:56 |
| ogra | as i said before, i havent seen the dvd at all, but i know both images are on the dvd | 07:56 |
| blue-frog | maybe but not in the boot menu then | 07:56 |
| blue-frog | no rescue mode menu either | 07:57 |
| blue-frog | so i guess that if I want to install edu server from the dvd I have I have to do F6 at boot and change the command line? | 07:58 |
| LaserJock | cbx33: get my email? | 08:01 |
| LaserJock | ogra: quick question, will installing ltsp-server on an Ubuntu install get me everything I need for to set up an edubuntu-like LTSP? | 08:03 |
| ogra | with ltsp-server you need an external dhcp server that needs to be properly configured | 08:04 |
| ogra | and you need to install openssh-server alonside, its only in recommends or suggests ... | 08:05 |
| === Amaranth [n=amaranth@ubuntu/member/amaranth] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| ogra | for a completely standalone server use ltsp-server-stansalone (and openssh-server) | 08:05 |
| === spacey [n=herman@ubuntu/member/spacey] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| ogra | after installing that package you run: sudo ltsp-build-client, edit /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf to match a static ip on the server, restart dhcpd and you are done | 08:06 |
| LaserJock | ok, so I have a DSL router that has dhcp, is that going to be a problem? | 08:06 |
| ogra | yep | 08:06 |
| ogra | unless you can adjust parameters for rootpath and the kernel in its dhcp server | 08:07 |
| LaserJock | :( | 08:07 |
| LaserJock | so much for my brilliant idea ;-) | 08:07 |
| ogra | just switch dhcp off | 08:07 |
| ogra | and use the edubuntu dhcp server :) | 08:07 |
| LaserJock | so the dhcp *has* to be coming from the edubuntu server? | 08:08 |
| ogra | no | 08:08 |
| ogra | but if your router doesnt support the necessary settings, then yes | 08:09 |
| LaserJock | ok | 08:09 |
| LaserJock | I was also trying to think of a way to do it at work too | 08:09 |
| ogra | but its quite trivial to set up | 08:09 |
| LaserJock | ok, at work all the computers have static IPs, can ltsp work with that? | 08:10 |
| ogra | nope | 08:11 |
| ogra | you need a dhcp server for PXE booting | 08:11 |

| LaserJock | hmm | 08:21 |
| cbx33 | LaserJock, how are we gonna work that bazaar repo? | 08:21 |
| ogra | LaserJock, just do an edubuntu default install and everytime you switch the PCs to PXE boot, they'll be thin clients | 08:21 |
| ogra | if you switch them back they will just use their static IPs | 08:21 |
| LaserJock | ogra: yeah, maybe I'll just do that. The thing is I already have an Ubuntu install on the machine | 08:22 |
| pips1 | ogra, i filed the bug here: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/udev/+bug/46138 | 08:22 |
| LaserJock | so I was considering just adding the LTSP part onto my current Ubuntu install | 08:22 |
| ogra | then install ltsp-server-standalone and openssh-server and do what i said above | 08:22 |
| ogra | pips1, thanks, please note it on the wiki | 08:22 |
| LaserJock | ogra: ok, thanks. I think I'll try it ;-) | 08:22 |
| pips1 | ogra, I'll try to get /var/log/installer/syslog as well | 08:22 |
| ogra | pips1, thats only in the system after reboot, else its /var/log/syslog in the installer | 08:23 |
| pips1 | ogra, I can't get a console :-( | 08:31 |

| cbx33 | LaserJock, no they don;t | 08:33 |

| ogra | LaserJock, you need some magic in the dhcpd.conf for them ... | 08:34 |
| ogra | but they netboot by holding down N on boot | 08:34 |
| cbx33 | :S | 08:34 |
| LaserJock | ok, well it probably wouldn't work anyway since it is an intel iMac | 08:34 |

| blue-frog | ogra any reason why I can't rsync cdimage.ubuntu.com/cdimage/edubuntu/daily/current/dapper-install-i386.iso? it gives me connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes received so far) [receiver] rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(434) | 08:54 |
| blue-frog | had same error using your rsyncer tool | 08:54 |
| blue-frog | ./rsyncer.sh --arch i386 only rsynced dapper-live-i386.iso | 08:55 |
| ogra | hmm, i'm currently rsyncing the dvd here | 08:55 |
| ogra | seems to go well | 08:55 |
| blue-frog | not dvd now :) just cd :) | 08:55 |
| ogra | dapper-dvd-amd64.iso | 08:55 |
| ogra | 899238625 26% 203.93kB/s 3:26:22 | 08:55 |
| blue-frog | am currently rsync the dvd, so far so good | 08:55 |
| ogra | indeed i rsynced the CDs before | 08:55 |
| blue-frog | but i can't rsync cd but the live one | 08:56 |
| blue-frog | i try to rsync everything to try to get the same cds /dvds you are all using cause it seems that we are not speaking of the same cds /dvds :) | 08:57 |
| blue-frog | for example on this edu cd i rsync yesterday when I boot i have the following choices... install in text mode, install a workstation, check cd, rescue, mem,boot from hdd | 08:59 |
| blue-frog | so is install in text mode the edubuntu server install? | 08:59 |
| ogra | yep | 08:59 |
| ogra | yep | 08:59 |
| blue-frog | ahhhhh | 08:59 |
| ogra | the one you get if you simply hit enter on boot :) | 09:00 |
| blue-frog | yep but as opposed to install wrkstation right after it, took it for the nongraphical install so i didn't bother | 09:00 |
| blue-frog | is it on purpose? | 09:01 |
| blue-frog | not to write install edubuntu server | 09:01 |
| ogra | it wasnt changed by me, and was changed just recently, it used to say "install to the haddisk" | 09:01 |
| ogra | *harddisk | 09:02 |
| blue-frog | ok but why not install edubuntu server (just plain and simple?) | 09:02 |
| ogra | its because the ubuntu CD naming scheme changed | 09:02 |
| blue-frog | oh la lal la :) | 09:02 |
| ogra | the install CD (which is our default) is called alternate textmode install CD for ubuntu | 09:02 |
| ogra | so thats made quite prominent ... even in the menu ... semms we just inherited that wording | 09:03 |
| blue-frog | *is afraid that we will have soon a lot of people coming here saying that edubuntu server is not working as they will all install a workstation being scared by the "text mode stuff" | 09:03 |
| ogra | the CD cover text is pretty clear (if you hit enter ...blah) | 09:04 |
| blue-frog | when you get a cd from shipit yes... but when you download.. | 09:04 |
| ogra | but i agree, we probably should revert it to "install to harddisk" | 09:04 |
| blue-frog | I dind't read the naming scheme cause i still don't get what problem underlies in naming it edubuntu server install, do you have a link for it pls? | 09:06 |
| blue-frog | i mean for the naming scheme thinggy | 09:06 |
| ogra | thats an ubuntu marketing thing ... the install CD isnt on shipit anymore, so the live CD was renamed to desktop CD | 09:07 |
| ogra | and the former ubuntu install CD is now called alternate CD | 09:08 |
| blue-frog | just a question with no offence from my part but just sad curioisity, are marketing people testing the cds sometimes, meaning just booting them at least | 09:08 |
| ogra | since we send out the install and not the live CD via shipit for edubuntu, we kept the old scheme | 09:08 |
| ogra | blue-frog, the install in textmode is inherited automatically from ubuntu | 09:09 |
| blue-frog | yes yes I read what you are telling me | 09:09 |
| ogra | i wasnt aware of it before you told me and i cant change it now | 09:09 |
| blue-frog | rah if only I didn't get demotivated for so long... | 09:09 |
| ogra | for ubuntu (which has no workstation mode) thats the right wording | 09:10 |

| blue-frog | could you have something on the download page stating this in big? saying to install edubuntu server they have to choose text mode? | 09:14 |
| blue-frog | cause I know that all downloaders will end with workstation in the end otherwise | 09:14 |
| ogra | nope, i'd rather fix the text | 09:15 |
| blue-frog | well if you can yes of coursee it's best | 09:15 |
| ogra | i just cant do it now | 09:15 |
| blue-frog | oh by now you rgiht now but not before final release? | 09:15 |
| blue-frog | you mean right now | 09:16 |
| blue-frog | i rephrase... | 09:16 |
| blue-frog | by now you mean you can't right now but will do for final release | 09:16 |
| ogra | i'll talk with Kamion (who has to make the actual change) but he's out for the evening now | 09:18 |

| === Amaranth stabs willow | ||
| Burgwork | Amaranth, really, having that much fun already? | 10:01 |
| Amaranth | heh | 10:01 |
| Burgwork | think a whole summer's worth of quality fun like this! | 10:01 |
| Amaranth | i'm thinking i'd get done faster doing the whole thing from scratch :P | 10:02 |
| Burgwork | heh. Here anything from the author? | 10:03 |
| Amaranth | nope | 10:03 |
| LaserJock | Amaranth: it's written in Python, right? | 10:03 |
| Amaranth | yeah | 10:03 |
| Burgwork | LaserJock, there is your project! | 10:04 |
| LaserJock | Burgwork: no thanks | 10:04 |
| LaserJock | I've got a little one going with cbx33 | 10:04 |
| Burgwork | right | 10:04 |
| cbx33 | heheh | 10:04 |
| LaserJock | we'll see how that goes | 10:04 |
| cbx33 | heheh | 10:05 |
| LaserJock | I don't think trying out programming with a rewrite of willow would be wise for me | 10:05 |
| Burgwork | LaserJock, what little project? | 10:05 |
| LaserJock | cbx33: ^^ ? | 10:05 |
| cbx33 | gISOMount | 10:06 |
| cbx33 | you can guess pretty much most of it from the title :p | 10:06 |
| cbx33 | but will be a good introduction | 10:07 |
| Burgwork | what is the use case? | 10:07 |
| cbx33 | say you download an iso, or even have one stored onthe computer and you want to mount it....as a virtual CD | 10:07 |
| cbx33 | yeh you can mount via command line | 10:08 |
| Burgwork | hmm | 10:08 |
| cbx33 | but you could do it graphicall via gISOMount | 10:08 |
| Burgwork | are you going to make a hook in nautilus for this as well? | 10:08 |
| cbx33 | i was hoping to | 10:08 |
| Burgwork | for me, that is the kind of thing that would be the most useful | 10:08 |
| Burgwork | in fact, if you can make nautilus simply understand them, that would be rocking | 10:09 |
| cbx33 | well we'll work on it | 10:09 |
| === pygi [n=pygi@83-131-245-77.adsl.net.t-com.hr] has joined #edubuntu | ||

| cbx33 | Burgwork, kinda like, right click an iso -> mount to... :p | 10:10 |
| cbx33 | that'd be cool | 10:10 |
| bluefrog-10 | at last after two days of typing blindly things I've succeeded installing edu server on my freaking vaio | 10:10 |
| cbx33 | :D | 10:10 |
| cbx33 | nice one bluefrog-10 | 10:10 |
| LaserJock | \o/ | 10:11 |
| bluefrog-10 | meaning if you have a problem of installing edu server with no screen and on pc with a windows system on it, just call me... :) | 10:11 |
| cbx33 | LaserJock, looks like we could be onto something really useful | 10:11 |

| ogra | erm | 10:17 |
| cbx33 | ogra, am i right? | 10:17 |
| ogra | gettingstarted is the only content of edubuntu-docs currently | 10:18 |
| cbx33 | oh | 10:18 |
| cbx33 | sorry | 10:18 |
| cbx33 | ogra, what was I creating then? | 10:18 |
| ogra | crimsun, i am on dapper ppc | 10:18 |
| crimsun | ogra: is dmix working properly for you? | 10:18 |
| bluefrog-10 | yes online but not accessible if no internet connction, am i correct? | 10:18 |
| ogra | crimsun, as far as i can tell yes | 10:18 |
| ogra | bluefrog-10, yes | 10:18 |
| ogra | bluefrog-10, it was a space problem | 10:19 |
| crimsun | ogra: ok, thanks | 10:19 |
| cbx33 | so getting started isn't in the edubuntu-docs package is it? | 10:20 |
| ogra | crimsun, but i'm still running a -20 kernel on this ibook | 10:20 |
| ogra | cbx33, read abopve | 10:20 |
| crimsun | ogra: that's ok, I'm chasing an alsa-lib issue | 10:20 |
| ogra | thats outdated as werll | 10:20 |
| ogra | *well | 10:20 |
| crimsun | ogra: as long as it's 1.0.10-2ubuntuFoo, that's what matters | 10:21 |
| cbx33 | ogra, sorry dude it must be late....I'm still confused | 10:21 |
| cbx33 | but nevermind | 10:21 |
| cbx33 | :p | 10:21 |
| ogra | but by the looks of it i have to also test ppc isos today (even i'm pretty exhausted after a night with 3h of sleep) so i can taest that later on a liveCD or testinstall | 10:21 |
| ogra | crimsun, 1.0.10-2ubuntu1 here | 10:23 |
| crimsun | ogra: that's fine. (It doesn't affect ppc but i386/ice17*, but the syntax for the format is what I'm concerned about) | 10:26 |
| ogra | ok | 10:26 |
| crimsun | (thanks again) | 10:28 |
| bluefrog-10 | where all that happens during installation is logged pls, am filling in a bug report and I would like to see if I find a trace of my screen goes black somewhere? | 10:37 |

| ogra | sudo chmod a+r /var/log/installer/syslog | 10:52 |
| bluefrog-10 | ok i have it...one more question | 10:52 |
| bluefrog-10 | when filling in the bug what files do I attach only syslog or all the files in va/.../installer | 10:53 |
| ogra | syslog and keep the others in case kamion needs them | 10:53 |
| bluefrog-10 | k | 10:53 |
| bluefrog-10 | I made a search in dapper bugs apparently will be the first one to fill in bugs for sony vaio, | 10:54 |
| bluefrog-10 | oh no file management menu where you tell your puter that you want single click has disappeared as well :( | 10:57 |
| bluefrog-10 | are gnome devs trying to erase all that makes user's life easier? | 10:59 |
| ogra | i have this here in my nautilus settings | 11:00 |
| ogra | in the behavior tab | 11:00 |
| bluefrog-10 | ah nautilus settings ... looking for it ty | 11:00 |
| bluefrog-10 | ok got it was looking for the "old" menu in system >pref | 11:01 |
| bluefrog-10 | 20 minutes on dapper and I find it much faster than breezy... cool | 11:02 |
| cbx33 | wish i could contact highvoltage | 11:10 |
| cbx33 | i need to ask him where he got to on the edubuntu wiki thingajigy | 11:10 |
| bluefrog-10 | cbx33, familiar with bug reporting? | 11:13 |
| cbx33 | yes | 11:13 |
| bluefrog-10 | am filling one.. | 11:13 |
| bluefrog-10 | have to click submit then edit it again to attach files? | 11:13 |
| cbx33 | yes | 11:14 |
| bluefrog-10 | ah :( ok ty | 11:14 |
| bluefrog-10 | then how do I affect it to ubuntu AND edubuntu or i just leave it ubuntu as it is? | 11:15 |
| cbx33 | what pacakge is it | 11:16 |
| bluefrog-10 | no package (well to my knowledge) it's my black screen problem during install | 11:16 |
| ogra | always leave ubuntu ... there is no edubuntu in malone ... | 11:16 |
| bluefrog-10 | ok | 11:16 |
| cbx33 | ah, then it'll be the install pacakge....what's that called ogra | 11:16 |
| ogra | if its a edubuntu specific package, assign it to edubuntu-bugs ... | 11:16 |
| ogra | debian-installer | 11:17 |

| bluefrog-10 | maybe you can explain to me then cause it's chinese to me | 11:44 |

| bluefrog-10 | not url it's in my inbox a mail i received long ago from a bug i filled | 11:46 |
| bluefrog-10 | the url otherwise is http://developer.berlios.de/projects/fsfn/ (the mail is talking about that as well | 11:46 |
| bluefrog-10 | crimsun, if it implies recompiling the kernel don't bother explaining to me :) I won't go that far | 11:49 |
| crimsun | it does involve recompiling the kernel. | 11:50 |
| crimsun | well, you really only need to build the module | 11:50 |

| LaserJock | hmm, I have no idea about freenx and thin clients | 02:10 |
| LaserJock | edubuntu uses LTSP | 02:10 |
| scubes13 | right, I just figured that LTSP prob used the pxes to allow clients to boot - I may be wrong in that assumption... | 02:11 |
| LaserJock | yeah, it uses PXE to boot over the network | 02:13 |
| scubes13 | my thought is that if I can get the client to boot up into pxes via PXE on the server, then from there I can configure the NX client to go from there | 02:14 |
| LaserJock | hmm, I just don't know enough about it to know | 02:14 |
| scubes13 | but as for pushing the PXE from the server, I dont even know where to begin - I realize it takes tftp and that I need to push the clients to look for the tftp via my dhcp server | 02:14 |
| scubes13 | gotya :( | 02:15 |
| scubes13 | :) | 02:15 |
| LaserJock | is there a reason to use freenx over LTSP? | 02:15 |
| scubes13 | just seems to be lighter, esp across modems/remote lans, etc | 02:16 |
| ogra | sudo apt-get install ltsp-server-standalone openssh-server && sudo ltsp-build-client ... then edit /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf to match a static interface on the server, restart the dhcp server and you are done ... | 02:16 |
| ogra | note that you cant (shouldnt) use two dhcp servers in one network | 02:16 |
| spacey | scubes13: ltsp is mostly used on a local area network | 02:16 |
| spacey | on modems/wan freenx would be useful | 02:16 |
| ogra | yep | 02:17 |
| scubes13 | yeah, that was why I was looking at freenx, b/c we work a good bit remotely | 02:17 |
| spacey | b/c? | 02:17 |
| spacey | you can also do both | 02:17 |
| jsgotangco | ogra: go to sleep? | 02:17 |
| spacey | its quite late in CET now :) | 02:17 |
| spacey | just got back from a "party" | 02:17 |
| scubes13 | yeah, I was also not running two dhcp servers | 02:18 |
| ogra | jsgotangco, one install left for today | 02:18 |
| scubes13 | I was able to setup my pfsense firewall to let each incoming dhcp request look to the thin client server for the pxe boot file - worked pretty well | 02:18 |
| jsgotangco | ogra: amd64 is covered now or do you need more? | 02:19 |
| jsgotangco | (it seems good already) | 02:19 |
| === HedgeMage [i=HedgeMag@freenode/staff/HedgeMage] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| ogra | this last install makes amd64 complete | 02:19 |
| HedgeMage | hi all :) | 02:19 |
| spacey | i don't think firewalls have much to do with PXE | 02:19 |
| === ogra was crazy enough to also do dvd installs today | ||
| spacey | ogra: madness!:P | 02:20 |
| ogra | well, look at our test matrix on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/Current | 02:20 |
| HedgeMage | :) | 02:20 |
| scubes13 | spacey: no, they dont, but the clients have to know where the tftp server is that hosts the pxe files | 02:20 |
| ogra | there is still the whole set of ppc tests left | 02:20 |
| spacey | scubes13: you specify that in the dhcp lease | 02:20 |
| scubes13 | lol, that is what I was saying | 02:20 |
| jsgotangco | ogra: uncle i don't have a PPC *wink* | 02:20 |
| ogra | jsgotangco, but i have one ... :) tomorrow is ppc day | 02:21 |
| spacey | ogra: ok thats quite a lot | 02:21 |
| ogra | and probably i386 dvd day ... | 02:21 |
| scubes13 | I have my pfsense firewall specifying the tftp server when it gives out the dhcp leases, therefore I am not using dhcp services on the thin client server | 02:21 |
| spacey | i didn't know firewalls give dhcp leases | 02:22 |
| scubes13 | well, I have dhcp services running from my pfsense firewall | 02:22 |
| ogra | cat'ing the CD isos together and rsync the dvd image on top of that goes quite fast (2h for a 3.2G rsync) | 02:22 |
| spacey | ogra: is that limitation of your inet connection or of the syncing process? | 02:22 |
| spacey | 2h for 3.2G is relatively slow | 02:23 |
| ogra | via rsync afeter we pushed out a release candidate thats pretty fast :) | 02:23 |
| spacey | :) | 02:23 |
| spacey | oh btw | 02:24 |
| ogra | the servers are glowing in the DC :) | 02:24 |
| HedgeMage | lol | 02:24 |
| spacey | i will probably help in a project to ship old pc's to suriname (whatever youc all that in english) | 02:24 |
| spacey | i will make sure it ships edubuntu or xubuntu if there slow | 02:24 |
| ogra | yeah | 02:24 |
| spacey | its for schools there | 02:24 |
| ogra | thats cool | 02:24 |
| bimberi | Just listened to the latest Lugradio podcast. Included an interview with a guy from http://camara.ie/ , an Irish charity sending refurbished computers to African schools. Pre-installed with Edubuntu :) | 02:25 |

| LaserJock | I just went for the vauge approach | 02:42 |
| LaserJock | I said that I was being sponsored to go to a Linux conference, how nice | 02:43 |
| bimberi | good idea | 02:43 |
| HedgeMage | :) | 02:44 |
| LaserJock | well, it isn't to bad. I was the only grad student in the lab not taking time off in June and I'm taking off the least amount of time | 02:44 |

| highvoltage | Burgundavia: i'll look at the links we deleted again, to check. although links like /PressRelease, that contained nothing but a few very draft notes about a possible press release for 5.10, doesn't really warrant having a link there. do you agree? or should everything have a link? | 07:51 |
| Burgundavia | highvoltage, if you mentioned the wiki page anywhere publicly or talked about it, it should be kept | 07:53 |
| highvoltage | Burgundavia: ok | 07:54 |
| highvoltage | i think there were some old artwork pages we deleted that was mentioned in the mailing list some time ago... we can still create a link explaining that the page used to exist, but doesn't anymore. would that be fine? | 07:55 |
| mhz | Has anyone seen any artwork for Edubuntu regarding CD labels ? | 07:55 |

| cbx33 | and I've been added to the group | 12:57 |
| blue-frog | k | 12:57 |
| cbx33 | but...... | 12:57 |
| cbx33 | drwxr-sr-x 5 root subversion 4096 2006-05-26 11:39 db | 12:57 |
| cbx33 | is a dir that I need write access to | 12:57 |
| cbx33 | but....as you can see w is missing for group | 12:57 |
| cbx33 | what should those instructions have read? | 12:58 |
| blue-frog | and db is inside /home/sn/myproject of course | 12:59 |
| cbx33 | yes | 12:59 |
| blue-frog | the permissions on above folder are ok? | 01:01 |
| cbx33 | yes | 01:01 |
| cbx33 | I can write to that one | 01:01 |
| cbx33 | the g+rws line | 01:02 |
| cbx33 | should that be something different | 01:02 |
| blue-frog | having a look | 01:02 |
| cbx33 | thanks blue-frog I was never that ogood with sticky bits | 01:03 |
| blue-frog | making a test here to see if i have same problem | 01:05 |
| cbx33 | thanks blue-frog | 01:05 |
| cbx33 | basically afte ryou have finished the g+rws line | 01:05 |
| cbx33 | try writing to the db folder | 01:05 |
| blue-frog | hum | 01:10 |
| cbx33 | i know it's a pretty simple problem....but I want to get this right...and I'm stumped | 01:11 |
| blue-frog | hang on have you tried wrting in it | 01:11 |
| blue-frog | without looking at the permissions | 01:12 |
| cbx33 | in the db folder? | 01:12 |
| blue-frog | yes | 01:12 |
| cbx33 | premission denied | 01:12 |
| blue-frog | cause works for me here | 01:12 |
| cbx33 | oh | 01:12 |
| === sankarshan [n=sankarsh@66.187.230.200] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| cbx33 | can you show me your premissions | 01:13 |
| blue-frog | ah no hang on must try with other user | 01:13 |
| blue-frog | and of course it shouldn't work | 01:13 |
| cbx33 | hehe | 01:13 |
| blue-frog | ok same as you of course | 01:14 |
| cbx33 | so now the question is | 01:15 |
| cbx33 | what should we have written in the beginning | 01:15 |
| blue-frog | yes but you didn't make it sticky that is the problem i think | 01:15 |
| blue-frog | let me try | 01:15 |
| cbx33 | oh? | 01:15 |
| blue-frog | have to man first :) | 01:16 |
| cbx33 | ok | 01:16 |
| blue-frog | try replacing s by t | 01:18 |
| blue-frog | chmod -R g+rwt | 01:18 |
| cbx33 | ok I'll recreate it again | 01:18 |
| blue-frog | no | 01:18 |
| cbx33 | oh ok | 01:18 |
| blue-frog | just apply chmod | 01:18 |
| blue-frog | rah yes you are right erase and recreate... | 01:19 |
| cbx33 | nope | 01:19 |
| cbx33 | it works with just the chmod | 01:19 |
| blue-frog | cause -R is gonna trick us wrongly | 01:19 |
| cbx33 | oh? | 01:19 |
| cbx33 | how so | 01:19 |
| blue-frog | -r applies new permissions to db as well :( | 01:20 |
| blue-frog | gonna try again here | 01:20 |
| cbx33 | isn't that what we want? | 01:20 |
| cbx33 | oh i see | 01:20 |
| cbx33 | yes..... | 01:20 |
| blue-frog | no as db was supposed to be created afterwards | 01:20 |
| cbx33 | that would be wrong | 01:20 |
| === cbx33 goes for a recreate | ||
| === alexandros_se [n=a@2-1-1-18a.spa.sth.bostream.se] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| blue-frog | yes works | 01:22 |
| cbx33 | no it didn't here | 01:23 |
| blue-frog | works for me but.. | 01:24 |
| blue-frog | just one folder underneath the sticky bit | 01:24 |
| blue-frog | menaing.. | 01:24 |
| blue-frog | meaning | 01:24 |
| cbx33 | ah yes | 01:24 |
| cbx33 | that's y it didn't fork for me | 01:24 |
| cbx33 | db works | 01:24 |
| cbx33 | but db/transationc doesn't | 01:24 |
| cbx33 | bbiab | 01:24 |
| blue-frog | yes | 01:24 |
| blue-frog | and for the following subfolder I don't know how to do that, gonna try with nautilus interface.. | 01:25 |
| blue-frog | even with nautilus by applying the sticky bit don't work for more than a folder | 01:28 |
| blue-frog | must be a way though, I man abit more | 01:28 |
| blue-frog | gonna ask on ubuntu-fr, hang on but I have a feeling that sticky bit is meant to be used like that only meaning you may need something else in fact | 01:32 |
| blue-frog | waiting for an eventual answer on ubuntu-fr if they can talk of other things than graphic cards.. | 01:37 |
| blue-frog | thinking | 01:37 |
| blue-frog | egroupware does that but i don't know if that can be applicable to your problem | 01:38 |
| blue-frog | and as I don't have egroupware installed right now I can't check in their code | 01:38 |
| lucasvo | has anybody experience with html export of docbook? | 01:52 |
| lucasvo | I would like to add a custom header | 01:52 |

| === cbx33 is just thinking of applying 755 to all in that directory | ||

| blue-frog | 755? | 02:20 |
| cbx33 | oh sorry 775 | 02:21 |
| blue-frog | do you have to leave rx to others? | 02:21 |
| cbx33 | yeh | 02:21 |
| blue-frog | ok then | 02:22 |
| cbx33 | 7 for owner 7 for group 5 for others | 02:22 |
| cbx33 | oh sory | 02:22 |
| blue-frog | yes yes understood | 02:22 |
| cbx33 | i see what you mean | 02:22 |
| blue-frog | ye p I mean 5 to others | 02:22 |
| cbx33 | blue-frog: sorry...i didn't mean to sound patronising...i didnt read it properly | 02:22 |
| blue-frog | don't wry :) | 02:22 |

| pips1 | ogra, the dapper kernel doesn't support the new imac g5 processors yet (fabbione told me), so g5 users will have to wait for edgy | 03:51 |

| jsgotangco | lol | 03:54 |
| === jsgotangco just had to test it out | ||
| pips1 | ogra, quoting fabbione: ... | 03:55 |
| pips1 | fabbione pips1: afaik the new imac g5 support has been added to the kernel only recently | 03:55 |
| pips1 | fabbione i think it requires at least .16 if not .17 | 03:55 |
| pips1 | fabbione and the backport is not possible. | 03:55 |
| pips1 | fabbione the code has been ported to .16 for a distro and it resulted in a very unstable environment | 03:55 |
| ogra | yep | 03:55 |
| ogra | sad the G5 cant emulate a G4 like amd64 can be used as i386b | 03:56 |
| lucasvo | next ubuntu release ppc is out of date anyway :) | 03:56 |
| ogra | -b | 03:56 |
| ogra | not at all | 03:56 |
| lucasvo | ogra: well of course, but it won't be in stores anymore | 03:56 |
| ogra | ppc will be around a long time still (at least as long as its used in IBMs) | 03:56 |
| lucasvo | too bad the didn't choose amd | 03:56 |
| lucasvo | ogra: IBM is still using them for wokstations? | 03:57 |
| lucasvo | or only servers? | 03:57 |
| ogra | servers | 03:57 |
| lucasvo | when will the shipit cd's be sent out? | 03:57 |
| ogra | but ppc macs will also stay around for some years and lots of ubuntu devs has ppc | 03:58 |
| ogra | *have | 03:58 |
| ogra | if there is something to be sent | 03:58 |
| ogra | not before ... people wont be happy about empty CD cases, even if they get them early :P | 03:58 |
| lucasvo | well I only order it for the case anyway :) | 03:59 |
| lucasvo | I have about 5 cd burnes in my house | 03:59 |

| lucasvo | ogra: is the edubuntu release at the same time as ubuntu release? | 03:59 |
| ogra | yep | 04:00 |
| lucasvo | ogra: but most people would assume that it's illegal if I give them one of my own cd's | 04:00 |

| blue-frog | I assume it's pointless filling a bug for apt-get/apt-proxy as apt-proxy is in unvierse, correct? | 04:46 |
| ogra | why ? | 04:47 |
| blue-frog | dunno I still don't understand very well what is universe | 04:47 |
| ogra | i mean why shouldnt you file a bug ? | 04:47 |
| blue-frog | but if i can i will do it right now cause apt-proxy is definitely what I need | 04:47 |
| LaserJock | blue-frog: Universe just means some lazy MOTU has to fix rather than the ever dedicated core-devs ;-) | 04:48 |
| ogra | universe packages can get fixage as well as main packages | 04:48 |
| blue-frog | ok then I will assign it to apt-get | 04:48 |
| LaserJock | blue-frog: if it is an apt-proxy problem then file it aganst that, don't worry about what repo it is in | 04:49 |
| blue-frog | well i don't know if it proxy or get as it was working perfectly under breezy | 04:50 |
| blue-frog | but now when apt-proxy receives the request from apt-get it's telling a lot of things about lines in python files | 04:50 |
| blue-frog | oh yes will file it under apt-proxy | 04:51 |
| blue-frog | the files incrimimnated are apt_proxy.py for example | 04:51 |

| pygi | JaneW, just poke me a mail on what I should do, and find contributors :-P | 04:56 |
| JaneW | there seem to be 2-3 interested people | 04:56 |
| JaneW | so I think we should either | 04:57 |
| LaserJock | JaneW: would it be possible for us to use the wiki and then have a person that actually submits the final draft? | 04:57 |
| JaneW | 1) Have people doing alternate weeks | 04:57 |
| JaneW | 2) Have people contributing for diff areas and one person tying it together | 04:57 |
| JaneW | LaserJock: sure | 04:57 |
| pygi | JaneW, I would say second :) | 04:57 |
| pygi | And I could be the person tying it all down :) | 04:58 |
| JaneW | pygi: yes I am trying to sort that out, and have been all day | 04:58 |
| pygi | ah, we don't have appropriate mentors? | 04:58 |
| pygi | and I hate that "copy&paste" thing that happened to us :( | 04:58 |

| LaserJock | JaneW: btw, do you know (I might have asked you this before) if there will be computers available for the laptop challenged in Paris | 05:03 |
| LaserJock | bddebian: the livecd has a graphical installer | 05:04 |
| LaserJock | bddebian: the install CD is the text installer but also has other options | 05:04 |
| JaneW | LaserJock: er... | 05:04 |
| bddebian | LaserJock: Yeah, I've noticed. But I didn't see a specific "install" iso? | 05:04 |
| JaneW | LaserJock: normaly everyone brings their own | 05:04 |
| ogra | you can browse the web while installing from the liveCD (or watch pron or whatever) | 05:04 |
| bddebian | w00t | 05:05 |
| LaserJock | JaneW: ok, I'll try to scare something up | 05:05 |
| JaneW | LaserJock: we can see if we can hook you up with someone who can loan you one | 05:05 |
| ogra | bddebian, http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/cdimage/edubuntu/daily/ has the install iso | 05:05 |
| ogra | bddebian, http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/cdimage/edubuntu/daily-live/ has the live iso | 05:05 |
| LaserJock | JaneW: I will probably just have to convince my wife that I should take hers to Europe for a week :-) | 05:05 |
| bddebian | Hmm, so I should test an install from the Live CD? | 05:06 |
| ogra | bddebian, as you like ... you can test live and install cd or only live or only install ... | 05:06 |
| bddebian | Well Live seems to be working fine. Though I'm not sure what all to test :-) | 05:06 |
| ogra | as i said, start some apps and make sure they work ... use ubiquity to do an install test etc | 05:07 |
| bddebian | Well FireFox and TuxPaint work fine :-) | 05:08 |
| ogra | great :) | 05:08 |

| === Yagisan [n=jamie@60-240-71-1-nsw-pppoe.tpgi.com.au] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| blue-frog | I mean the dvd, the page has dvd following your pc architecture | 06:15 |
| jryer | How would I get just the packages necessary for spanish? | 06:16 |
| ogra | jryer, do you want to install the classroom server or a workstation ? | 06:16 |
| jryer | One server, the rest workstations | 06:17 |
| ogra | wokrstations or ltsp clients ? | 06:17 |
| jryer | Workstations | 06:19 |
| blue-frog | jryer from a user point of view the aggravating things to install spanish would be (from least to worst), download dvd and burn it, install spanish on one laptop and then retrive the *.deb files from the cache, retrieving the *.deb files dirctly from the web site | 06:19 |
| ogra | jryer, then use the liveCd to install the workstations, the liveCD doesnt have any server parts on it, so there was space to add the spanish language packs (among other langs) | 06:20 |
| ogra | for the server side you need either the dvd (all langpacks) or network connection to get them online | 06:20 |
| jryer | Okay... I tried using the language packs that I have installed on UBUNTU to install on EDUBUNTU but the package installations failed. Are the packages different between edubuntu and ubuntu? | 06:21 |
| ogra | nope, they are 100% identical | 06:22 |
| ogra | but edubuntu ships some kde apps, so you need the kde langpacks as well | 06:22 |
| jryer | So then how do I go about installing the language packs from the cache folder on edubuntu? I have them on my USB flash. | 06:23 |
| ogra | you need the following packages: language-pack-es language-pack-gnome-es language-pack-kde-es and language-support-es | 06:24 |
| ogra | but note that language-support has many other dependencys | 06:25 |
| ogra | like openoffice langpacks or firefox langpacks | 06:25 |
| ogra | so i guess the dvd is your best bet | 06:26 |
| ogra | since all depending packages are on there as well | 06:26 |
| jryer | I have the language-support-es language-pack-es aspell-es mozilla-firefox-locale-es-ar mozilla-firefox-locale-es-es myspell-es openoffice.org2-help-es openoffice.org2-l10n-es wspanish | 06:27 |
| === ingoing [n=popovich@83.103.222.152] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| jryer | I right click and choose install package. A window pops up for the first few packages, looks like it does something and closes before I can see what happens. The openoffice packages get errors. But I log out and look to see if spanish is installed and its not there. | 06:29 |
| jryer | So I suppose I have to download the DVD. | 06:29 |

| blue-frog | talking about the server myself | 06:37 |
| ogra | the workstation install folllows the "no open ports" policy | 06:37 |
| blue-frog | jinty where does schooltool hides it's file, thought it was a "web" page but apparently am wrong | 06:38 |
| ogra | get the package | 06:38 |

| === Yagisan wishes he was there to collect those computers | ||
| === cbx33 too | ||
| LaserJock | 386s and PIs and PIIs | 08:33 |
| === Yagisan still uses PII's | ||
| LaserJock | yeah, well we have new intel iMacs so... | 08:34 |
| === cbx33 has just setup a PIII for the webdavsvn | ||
| Yagisan | Intel Macs ? you poor thing | 08:34 |
| LaserJock | yeah, I can't put Ubuntu on it :( | 08:35 |
| Yagisan | could have saved some money and got a few white boxes instead | 08:35 |
| LaserJock | we also through out a lot of 5 1/4" floppies too | 08:35 |
| bddebian | heh | 08:35 |
| === Yagisan has a 5 1/4" floppy in his amd64 box | ||
| LaserJock | Yagisan: yeah, doesn't really matter though. My boss only wants macs | 08:36 |
| LaserJock | I told him I wanted an AMD64 and he said, nope your getting an iMac | 08:36 |
| === Yagisan slaps autoconf around hard | ||
| Yagisan | LaserJock: your boss, not an IT guy ? | 08:37 |
| LaserJock | Yagisan: hehe, no. I'm a Chemistry grad student | 08:37 |
| LaserJock | He hates MS and loves linux | 08:38 |
| Yagisan | LaserJock: that answers the question of why intel mac | 08:38 |
| LaserJock | but in the end (like a lot of faculty in my department) OS X is the compromise | 08:38 |
| jsgotangco | id like to work for your boss then | 08:39 |
| Yagisan | LaserJock: uhh, so he wants *you* to port Ubuntu to the Intel Mac | 08:39 |
| LaserJock | well, we have lots and lots of grant money | 08:39 |
| LaserJock | Yagisan: no, he doesn't want me to use Ubuntu | 08:39 |
| Yagisan | LaserJock: he's evil !! | 08:39 |
| LaserJock | hehe, it's ok. He is a nice guy and I just installed Ubuntu on a spare box ;-) | 08:40 |
| LaserJock | so I ssh a lot | 08:40 |

| jsgotangco | i have a 4 year old | 05:06 |
| Burgundavia | ah | 05:06 |
| Burgundavia | have you started them on the web yet? | 05:06 |
| Burgundavia | and are you familiar with a product called BumperCar? | 05:06 |
| jsgotangco | yes | 05:07 |

| Burgundavia | http://live.gnome.org/Epiphany/ChildrensBrowser | 05:08 |
| jsgotangco | yes | 05:08 |
| Burgundavia | given it is my idea, I am chatting with guy who is going to be doing it right now | 05:09 |
| jsgotangco | oh? | 05:09 |
| Burgundavia | but IANAP, so I need help on making it actually useful | 05:09 |
| jsgotangco | who's mentoring it? | 05:10 |
| Burgundavia | dholbach | 05:10 |
| Burgundavia | me, unofficially | 05:10 |
| jsgotangco | oh okay | 05:11 |
| jsgotangco | i believe this is an epiphany plugin or something | 05:11 |
| Burgundavia | basically a giant-oversized epiphany extension | 05:11 |
| Burgundavia | however, there are some changes to epiphany needed, as well as communcation with other people | 05:12 |
| === Laser_away is now known as LaserJock | ||
| jsgotangco | it would be a great addition to edubuntu when implemented however, it'll mean having both epi and firefox in the install | 05:13 |
| Burgundavia | yes, but that is not too bad | 05:13 |
| Burgundavia | epiphany already has the lockdown keys and is much less scary development environment | 05:14 |
| Burgundavia | plus getting changes to epiphany is much much easier | 05:14 |
| jsgotangco | yes | 05:14 |
| jsgotangco | hvae you tried the linux version of picasa? | 05:15 |

| jsgotangco | Total size: 24MB. Picasa software (9MB), Wine (12MB) and Gecko engine (3MB). | 05:22 |

| jsgotangco | try the direct link | 05:23 |
| jsgotangco | http://picasa.google.com/linux/thanks-deb.html | 05:23 |
| Burgundavia | however, as I said on #gnome-hackers, picasa is amazing software on Windows but merely middle of the road on Linux | 05:23 |
| Burgundavia | much like Firefox | 05:23 |
| jsgotangco | yes | 05:23 |
| jsgotangco | it is pretty intuitive though | 05:27 |

| n1ws1 | we want direct cafe in edubuntu | 11:43 |
| n1ws1 | we are in cameroon and we are working | 11:43 |
| highvoltage | direct cafe? that's from direqlearn, right? | 11:44 |
| michel | hello Iam in Cameroon and we have difficulties to install cyber cafe . | 11:44 |
| michel | yes | 11:44 |
| n1ws1 | yes | 11:45 |
| michel | how can we insall | 11:45 |
| highvoltage | michel, n1ws1: is this the same place you're working at? | 11:45 |
| highvoltage | it's been ages since i've even looked at direct cafe, but as far as i know, it's designed for slackware | 11:46 |
| highvoltage | so you probably have a .tar.gz file, right? | 11:46 |
| n1ws1 | yes | 11:46 |
| ogra | highvoltage, do you have an url ? seems not even google points me anywhere | 11:46 |
| === highvoltage tries to find the link | ||
| ogra | highvoltage, btw, the gettingstarted css explodes for me ... somehow the menu gets pushed out of the site by the screenshots it seems | 11:47 |
| michel | I dont have any idea of how to install the cyber but I can work with edubuntu | 11:48 |
| michel | so pleas do me a favour to give me the necessary instructions | 11:49 |
| highvoltage | ogra: it's a product from http://www.getopenlab.com , but i can't find a link to it from their site | 11:50 |
| highvoltage | michel, n1ws1: where did you download it from? | 11:50 |
| ogra | i never heard of it ... | 11:50 |
| highvoltage | michel, n1ws1: we can only help you if we have a copy too, and I'm not even sure that it would work with edubuntu, since openlab uses ltsp.org | 11:50 |
| highvoltage | ogra: I know the author, he's ignorant and loud, and it's probably not edubuntu worthy | 11:51 |
| ogra | http://getopenlab.com/olmambo/content/view/1127/50/ | 11:51 |
| ogra | got it | 11:51 |
| highvoltage | (well, kind of know, anyway) | 11:51 |
| ogra | looking fod direct cafe doesnt help much if the name is direqcafe ;) | 11:51 |
| ogra | i bet that works only with xdmcp based ltsp | 11:52 |
| === highvoltage wouldn't be surprised | ||
| ogra | bah, and its gtk1.2, nothing we can include by default | 11:54 |
| highvoltage | ogra: on the css, i'll look at that again today, and fix the white stripe at the bottom too, and some other polishings | 11:54 |
| highvoltage | wow, i didn't realise it was *that* bad | 11:54 |
| highvoltage | ogra: you'll probably come across lots of software for education written by A.J. Venter, if I can give you any advice: avoid it :) | 11:54 |
| ogra | but if i had known about it 6 weeks ago we could have made it a SoC project, damned | 11:54 |
| ogra | highvoltage, it has good concepts, if you find a decent programmer to rewrite it it can get good ;) | 11:55 |
| ogra | ugh, direqcafe is delphi ?? thats for windows, isnt it ? | 11:56 |
| jsgotangco | hey guys | 11:56 |
| ogra | ah, no linux version is in freepascal ... | 11:56 |

| ogra | hi jsgAWAY | 11:56 |
| highvoltage | hey jsgotangco :) | 11:56 |
| highvoltage | jsgotangco: glad you're taking up the newsletter | 11:57 |
| highvoltage | i think the newsletter will be great | 11:57 |
| === loogaroo [n=manuel@85-124-206-159.dynamic.xdsl-line.inode.at] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| jsgotangco | thank you | 11:58 |
| ogra | phew, this software wont work with ubuntu :/ | 11:59 |
| === n1ws1 [n=n1ws1@80.78.19.92] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| ogra | n1ws1, that software wont run on a standard ubuntu system, i fear you have to contact the author to ask hinm to adjust it | 12:01 |
| ogra | oh, did i scare him ? | 12:02 |
| highvoltage | i dunno. perhaps :/ | 12:02 |
| highvoltage | if he hung around a bit more, you couldn've told him about the future edubuntu plans, at least :/ | 12:03 |
| ogra | yeah | 12:03 |
| ogra | for two of the functions dieqcafe offers he could even use s-c-p | 12:03 |
| highvoltage | the openlab software has lots of credibility within the government education parts here in south africa | 12:03 |
| highvoltage | lots of people know about it | 12:03 |
| highvoltage | but openlab is very hacky, and i would far recommend edubuntu above it | 12:04 |
| highvoltage | (not because i'm biased, of course) | 12:04 |
| ogra | yeah, but gtk1.2 is already a blocker to even get it to main | 12:04 |
| ogra | we'll need more programmers or people writing stuff for us ... | 12:04 |
| highvoltage | i've thought about that this week, and i spend too much time doing stuff i think it's important, but it keeps me distracted from what i really want to do | 12:05 |
| highvoltage | previously i wouldn've jumped to something like the newsletter, because it will be great for edubuntu | 12:06 |
| highvoltage | but i'm going to gradually focuss more on working with you to get edubuntu things working better | 12:07 |
| ogra | thats a great plan ... | 12:07 |
| ogra | :) | 12:07 |
| highvoltage | there's lots of other people who want to do documentation and website stuff. | 12:07 |
| highvoltage | :) | 12:07 |
| highvoltage | glad you feel that way. | 12:07 |
| ogra | doc is always an easy entry point its good to leave that to newcomers, look at cbx33 ... he started with writing ltsp manpages and now already gets a pygtk course from Laser_away :) | 12:08 |
| ogra | in 6 months he'll help with packaging :) | 12:08 |
| jsgotangco | heh so you're saying...we're slacking.... | 12:09 |
| highvoltage | cbx33 is really great though :) | 12:09 |
| ogra | nah | 12:09 |
| jsgotangco | :D | 12:09 |
| highvoltage | he sets an amazing example for futrue edubuntu members :) | 12:09 |
| === jsgotangco admits packaging is his weakness | ||
| ogra | yep | 12:09 |
| highvoltage | packaging is something i want to be good at just because i think it's important for any ubuntu developer to be good at it, | 12:10 |
| highvoltage | but not necassarily beacuse i want to maintain lots of packages. | 12:10 |
| ogra | well, even if youre bad at it, thta suffices, we have revu ;) | 12:10 |
| === highvoltage should look at that | ||
| highvoltage | i can put basic packages together, our ubuntu tuxlab setup will be mostly debianised when we do the dapper rollout | 12:11 |
| highvoltage | no more 'just copying over files' ;) | 12:11 |
| === ogra isnt good at packaging but knows how to use lintian ;) | ||
| ogra | highvoltage, thats really trivial to package ... look at edubuntu-docs its just copying files ;) | 12:12 |
| highvoltage | yeah, i've noticed :) | 12:12 |
| jsgotangco | i'll try packaging non-invasive apps like docs for starters i guess | 12:13 |
| highvoltage | ogra: i've wanted to package something, even simple, for edubuntu. but i have to become a motu first, and then a main contributer, right? | 12:13 |
| jsgotangco | no | 12:13 |
| ogra | nope | 12:13 |
| jsgotangco | you no need to be motu to push | 12:13 |
| ogra | everybody can just package and upload to revu | 12:13 |
| highvoltage | aaah | 12:13 |
| highvoltage | ogra: is this explained on a wiki page? i'm hungry for more info :) | 12:14 |
| ogra | MOTUs will review and critisize it there, if the packaging is ok then, someone will upload it for you | 12:14 |
| highvoltage | ah great | 12:14 |
| jsgotangco | crash course heh | 12:14 |
| ogra | https://wiki.edubuntu.org/MOTU/Packages/REVU | 12:15 |

| ogra | its in yelp in the default install | 12:16 |
| jsgotangco | yes | 12:16 |
| jsgotangco | i actually got it on the first try | 12:16 |
| highvoltage | wow, i haven't seen this packaging guide in help before... cool! | 12:19 |
| jsgotangco | :P | 12:19 |
| ogra | highvoltage, we'll need to update the screenshots on gettingstarted, there were a lot changes (i.e. usplash, the CD menu has completely changed and indeed the theme doesnt match yet) | 12:20 |
| ogra | for the theme stuff, you can grab the shots of edubuntu-docs | 12:21 |
| highvoltage | ogra: ok, will do. i'll do a new installation under vmware this evening and update | 12:24 |

| jsgotangco | newsletter heh | 12:26 |
| jsgotangco | im doing a draft later | 12:26 |
| ogra | oh, only that testing and fixing of the last major bugs is going on | 12:27 |
| ogra | s/testing/CD testing/ | 12:27 |
| jsgotangco | hmmm we're so close to relesae | 12:27 |
| ogra | a call for testers and a link to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/Current might be a bit late though | 12:27 |
| Bluekuja | highvoltage: jon, when getting started translation is finished I ping you, so maybe you can add a link in the website | 12:28 |
| jsgotangco | its probably much better to release a newsletter on release | 12:28 |
| ogra | yep | 12:28 |
| pygi | highvoltage, jsgotangco , poke? | 12:29 |
| jsgotangco | hi | 12:29 |
| Bluekuja | ooh pygi | 12:30 |
| highvoltage | Bluekuja: for sure | 12:30 |
| pygi | Hey Andrea | 12:30 |
| highvoltage | pygi: pokeback | 12:30 |
| Bluekuja | highvoltage: tnx jon | 12:30 |
| pygi | jsgotangco, highvoltage , I'll make a LP team | 12:30 |
| jsgotangco | sure | 12:30 |
| highvoltage | pygi: ok, remember to make jsgotangco an administrator though | 12:30 |
| highvoltage | since he's leading it :) | 12:31 |
| pygi | yes, yes,ok :) | 12:31 |
| Bluekuja | pygi: mario not more in #ubuntu-it? | 12:31 |
| Bluekuja | hehe | 12:31 |
| pygi | Bluekuja, no need :P | 12:31 |
| jsgotangco | this is like splitting -traffic into 3 | 12:31 |
| Bluekuja | xD | 12:31 |
| pygi | wth? I lost adress bar in epiphany? :-/ | 12:32 |
| ogra | hmm, why did nobody report that the cursor theme is broken on the edubuntu RC, damned | 12:32 |
| highvoltage | jsgotangco: can you then add Newsletter to the documentation part next to your name on /EdubuntuWiki? | 12:32 |
| ogra | guys TEST the isos and report bugs, its the last chance to get them fixed ! | 12:32 |
| highvoltage | shit, i downloaded the iso but at work. i'll drive there in 15 minutes and rsync (from thursday's iso) and test pronto! | 12:33 |
| jsgotangco | good thing i have my iso here | 12:33 |
| ogra | highvoltage, take your time, i'm just wondering why nobody noticed it :) | 12:33 |

| lucasvo | current? | 01:21 |
| lucasvo | wow | 01:21 |
| lucasvo | new icons :) | 01:21 |
| juliux | ogra, what do you think about this http://212.63.81.40/detail.php?ART=25221 ? | 01:21 |
| ogra | juliux, well, given that the last 5 i bought from you costed a lot less its quite expensive, but should work fine ;) | 01:23 |
| ogra | or is this 79 for all 7 ? | 01:23 |
| ogra | "- Sound: onBoard, SB kompatibel" is always a bit worrying | 01:24 |
| lucasvo | soundblaster is not supported well? | 01:24 |
| ogra | sb comaptible .... | 01:25 |
| juliux | ogra, no 79 for one | 01:25 |
| ogra | means you likely have an ISA onboard soundcard | 01:25 |
| lucasvo | juliux: thats a lot | 01:25 |
| juliux | ogra, but you get a better price as a e.v. | 01:25 |
| juliux | lucasvo, its cheaper then on ebay ;) | 01:25 |
| ogra | lucasvo, which additionally means you have to run isapnp and do other manual fuss to get it running | 01:26 |
| lucasvo | juliux: what for do you need it? | 01:26 |
| juliux | lucasvo, as thinclient ;) | 01:26 |
| lucasvo | they aren't real thin clients | 01:26 |
| lucasvo | torrents are slow | 01:27 |
| ogra | lucasvo, what are "real thin clients" then ? | 01:27 |
| lucasvo | http://cgi.ebay.de/Compaq-Thin-Client-Evo-T30-Win-XP-300MHz-256MB-84252_W0QQitemZ9731083629QQcategoryZ65570QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem | 01:28 |
| lucasvo | ogra: without 10gb hard disk | 01:28 |
| lucasvo | :) | 01:28 |
| ogra | well, you can just take it out | 01:28 |
| juliux | lucasvo, i need some thinclients for me privat, i only want to use thinclients at home | 01:29 |
| lucasvo | http://cgi.ebay.de/COMPAQ-iPAQ-Shuttle-Thin-Client-1GHz-256MB-20GB-CD-ROM_W0QQitemZ8816738943QQcategoryZ77191QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem < | 01:29 |
| lucasvo | the same | 01:29 |
| lucasvo | but it has CD and even 20gb hard disk :) | 01:30 |
| ogra | hey, 10 only :) | 01:30 |
| lucasvo | juliux: you have also one of these wyse thin clients without psu? | 01:32 |
| juliux | lucasvo, i have wyse thinclients but i havent test it with linux | 01:32 |
| lucasvo | ogra: how is the linux support for wyse 3360? | 01:33 |
| ogra | no idea | 01:33 |
| lucasvo | you can buy them there for 6 EUR | 01:34 |
| jsgotangco | freakin humidity | 01:35 |
| loogaroo | is it with a dapper ltsp setup now possible to discover a serial mouse? | 01:38 |
| ogra | loogaroo, yep, via lts.conf | 01:39 |
| ogra | there is no possible way to autodetect serial mice and when i started a call for help on the mailing list to get some data for a possible detect algorithm i only recieved 3 datasets | 01:40 |
| ogra | which didnt get me anwhere indeed | 01:40 |
| ogra | loogaroo, btw, there is also an #edubuntu-de channel ;) | 01:40 |
| loogaroo | oh :) | 01:41 |
| ogra | (even nearly everybody in there is also here :) ) | 01:41 |
| jsgotangco | im sorry to hear about the serial mouse issue | 01:59 |
| ogra | its fine, you just need to set it manually | 02:00 |
| ogra | at least that works now (for ubuntu as well as for ltsp) | 02:01 |
| jsgotangco | (not to mention they are a rarity) | 02:01 |
| ogra | given the amount of complaints that autodetection doesnt work for serial mice, my impression is they are very widely used :) | 02:02 |
| ogra | but given the feedback on my call for data i tend to agree with you :) | 02:02 |
| highvoltage | serial mice are also likely to be non-optical, which means that it's also probably way over end-of-life for some time | 02:02 |
| ogra | btw, there is still X_MOUSE_DEV=/dev/psaux in gettingstarted ... | 02:03 |
| ogra | please remove that | 02:03 |
| jsgotangco | ahh it started to rain | 02:04 |
| jsgotangco | cooling down a bit | 02:04 |
| jsgotangco | what's the weather like in europe at this time? | 02:06 |
| loogaroo | jsgotangco: 21C in Vienna | 02:07 |
| jsgotangco | that's not so bad | 02:08 |
| highvoltage | feels like about 15C in cape town... brrrr | 02:12 |
| jsgotangco | it was around 36C here till it rained | 02:14 |
| spacey | its 15 here too | 02:14 |
| spacey | the rainy netherlands | 02:14 |
| ogra | here as well | 02:15 |
| ogra | even its still dry | 02:15 |
| ogra | but looks like it'll rain soon | 02:15 |
| jsgotangco | summer is about to end here | 02:15 |
| ogra | it didnt even start here | 02:17 |
| lucasvo | :( | 02:23 |
| spacey | the netherlands had 2 weeks of "summer". now its gone again | 02:24 |
| jsgotangco | i gotta go | 02:31 |
| jsgotangco | have a good weekend all | 02:31 |
| highvoltage | cheers jsgotangco | 02:32 |

| ogra | apt-cache show landscape-client | 02:40 |
| === yvesC [n=yves@zenobi.ycombe.net] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| lucasvo | ogra: you can already begin to make an webversion of ltspadmin :) | 02:45 |
| ogra | nope, thats the job of our landscape department | 02:45 |
| lucasvo | so why do you develop ltspadmin at all it's gonne be replaced by landscape? | 02:46 |
| ogra | landscape is a webtool | 02:46 |
| ogra | i'm not intrested at all in web based tools | 02:46 |
| lucasvo | at least it's a standard that looks the same on all sorts of OS | 02:47 |
| ogra | landscape wont run on other OSs | 02:48 |
| lucasvo | no, but the client is able to even use his nokia 700 to view the interface | 02:49 |
| ogra | while LTSPManager will run on all OSs that use our ltsp | 02:49 |
| lucasvo | the new official version of ltsp, will it be the one you developed or will they change it? | 02:50 |
| ogra | ltsp.org will never be the same as ours, its not possible | 02:50 |
| lucasvo | why? | 02:50 |
| ogra | look at the implementation | 02:51 |
| lucasvo | in the wiki of ltsp they said that the muecow will be used for the next release... | 02:51 |
| ogra | how ? | 02:51 |
| ogra | thats technically not possible | 02:51 |
| ogra | muecow can only be developed inside a distro | 02:51 |
| ogra | ltsp.org ltsp is built to run on *all* distros possible | 02:52 |
| ogra | so there is no way to make ltsp.org ltsp be muecow | 02:52 |

| cbx33 | hi everyone | 04:10 |
| highvoltage | about ESA... | 04:10 |
| highvoltage | it's really so nice, wouldn't it be best to use that as the new front page? | 04:10 |
| cbx33 | highvoltage, that's up to you | 04:11 |
| cbx33 | I'm perfectly happy with that | 04:11 |
| cbx33 | if you and everyone else is | 04:11 |
| highvoltage | ogra: do you have a few seconds, could you look at http://www.edubuntu.org/node/16 ? | 04:13 |
| highvoltage | ogra: do you think it should be a seperate page, or the home page of edubuntu.org? i think it really just needs the manifesto. | 04:14 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: do you have the original screenshots that's on that page? | 04:15 |
| cbx33 | highvoltage, I'm sure we could just include the manifesto in ESA | 04:15 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: yep | 04:15 |
| cbx33 | original screenshots? | 04:15 |
| highvoltage | yeah, the full size screenshots | 04:15 |
| cbx33 | Yes I have the individal screenshots.... | 04:15 |
| cbx33 | I was going to make it so we could link them in | 04:16 |
| cbx33 | where you have like a group of 3 | 04:16 |
| cbx33 | that was going to link to a page, where there would be those 3 and possibly more for that group | 04:16 |
| ogra | highvoltage, do you want to put the manifesto above or below the access denied message ? :P | 04:16 |
| cbx33 | does that sound reasonable? | 04:16 |
| cbx33 | hehe | 04:16 |
| cbx33 | highvoltage, can we publish the page now ? | 04:16 |
| cbx33 | :p | 04:16 |
| cbx33 | hehehehe | 04:16 |
| highvoltage | ogra: sorry, it's still unpublished! | 04:17 |
| highvoltage | (d'oh) | 04:17 |
| ogra | :) | 04:17 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: yes please. at least so that ogra can read it :) | 04:17 |
| cbx33 | I wouldn't publish till you said so :p | 04:17 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: :) | 04:17 |
| ogra | DOIT! | 04:17 |
| cbx33 | ....published..... | 04:17 |
| === cbx33 hides under the table | ||
| highvoltage | cbx33: another thing that would be nice, if the edubuntu logo comes off (since it is on the banner already) and the circle of friends is added in there | 04:18 |
| cbx33 | sure | 04:18 |
| cbx33 | c..c..c..can ..y...y..y.ou...ssss.s.ssseee it now ogra | 04:18 |
| ogra | isnt that a bit much for a homepage ? | 04:19 |
| highvoltage | it is quite, hey | 04:19 |
| ogra | i agree, the content is great, but i'd rather split it in separate sections (like its done in docbook already iirc) | 04:19 |
| ogra | thats very much info for an initial startpage | 04:20 |
| === cbx33 apologises for being loquacious | ||
| highvoltage | cbx33: ok, so let's keep it a seperate page and take some of the most relevant parts to the front page at some stage | 04:20 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: where should that page link from? | 04:21 |
| cbx33 | ogra, what about having links through to the relevant sections on seperate pages? | 04:21 |
| cbx33 | like a maths page? | 04:21 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: and please add a /friendlyurl :) | 04:21 |
| cbx33 | highvoltage, in the aliases? | 04:21 |
| cbx33 | in your aliases list highvoltage could we edit Glossary to have a small letter | 04:22 |
| cbx33 | unlessyou've linked to it already | 04:22 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: it's under URL path settings | 04:22 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: i thought about it too, but ogra suggested we use WikiStyle, hence the 'Glossary' | 04:22 |
| cbx33 | ok | 04:22 |
| highvoltage | although, all small letters tend to look better in a url | 04:23 |
| highvoltage | i wonder if drupal knows the difference... let's just check on that | 04:23 |
| cbx33 | that's what I thought....we just need to keep consistency | 04:23 |
| highvoltage | wicked | 04:23 |
| cbx33 | it doesn't care | 04:23 |
| highvoltage | it doesn't :) | 04:23 |
| cbx33 | :p | 04:23 |
| highvoltage | in that case, let's keep it consistent wiki style | 04:23 |
| cbx33 | ok | 04:23 |
| cbx33 | InSchool ? | 04:24 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: rename at will! (only case changes, of course) | 04:24 |

| cbx33 | ok | 04:25 |
| cbx33 | so do you want me to go ahead and modify all the aliases for the other pages? | 04:25 |
| highvoltage | if you have other suggestions, please tell, you've done most of the work on this and it's your choice too :) | 04:25 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: yep, i'll do it too, but more eyes are better :) | 04:26 |
| cbx33 | thanks highvoltage | 04:26 |
| cbx33 | highvoltage, what's the diff between node/8 and node/9 | 04:27 |
| cbx33 | there are two aliases | 04:27 |
| cbx33 | they point to the two pages | 04:28 |
| cbx33 | /news and news | 04:28 |
| cbx33 | All aliases have been changed | 04:28 |
| highvoltage | node 9 is the proper one | 04:28 |

| lucasvo | a smother transition from header to menu | 04:32 |
| highvoltage | lucasvo: i see what you mean | 04:32 |
| cbx33 | highvoltage, or a dashed line running down the left of the navigation | 04:33 |
| cbx33 | just to break it up | 04:33 |
| highvoltage | i thought about that too, i initially thought of having a solid, lighter edubuntu-red line | 04:33 |
| === lucasvo doesn't like dashed lines | ||

| spacey | anyway, bbl | 04:36 |

| ogra | cbx33, we can do it here | 04:38 |
| lucasvo | highvoltage: ok | 04:38 |
| cbx33 | ok | 04:38 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: ok | 04:38 |
| cbx33 | ogra, I have a table of widgets.... | 04:38 |
| cbx33 | a column of entry boxes, and 2 buttons associated with each | 04:39 |
| ogra | cbx33, widget[0] = gtk.Widget(something) | 04:39 |
| cbx33 | that's what I tried | 04:39 |
| cbx33 | hmmm | 04:39 |
| ogra | (indeed the array must exist before and be initialized) | 04:39 |
| cbx33 | ahh | 04:39 |
| cbx33 | ogra, ...sorry to be stupid | 04:39 |
| cbx33 | how do i define an array for that usage | 04:39 |
| ogra | its very ugly, i'd rather have all widgets in glade already and show7hide them | 04:39 |
| cbx33 | ok | 04:40 |
| cbx33 | well, I'm doing it that way now | 04:40 |
| ogra | widget[] ="" | 04:40 |
| cbx33 | but if I wanted to checkthrough them all | 04:40 |
| ogra | ^^^ initialize | 04:40 |
| cbx33 | ok thanx | 04:40 |
| ogra | at the top of your function | 04:40 |
| cbx33 | excellent thank you ogra | 04:40 |
| cbx33 | would you believe we even have a bzr branch for it now :D | 04:40 |

| ogra | nice ! :) | 04:41 |
| cbx33 | yup | 04:41 |
| cbx33 | gISOMount is coming along nicely | 04:41 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: we already have a MeetingLogs under QuickLinks | 04:41 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: where should that point to? | 04:41 |
| cbx33 | highvoltage, yes I know, iwas saying either edit that to point to the minutes.... | 04:42 |
| cbx33 | or add a new link to the minutes | 04:42 |
| cbx33 | just a suggestion | 04:42 |
| cbx33 | i wonder if the minutes should be stored in drupal | 04:42 |
| cbx33 | instead of on the wiki | 04:42 |
| cbx33 | under the guise that they shoulnd't need to be edited by lots of people | 04:42 |
| cbx33 | or added to | 04:42 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: i think wiki for now is best | 04:42 |
| cbx33 | ok | 04:42 |
| cbx33 | sure ;) | 04:42 |
| lucasvo | highvoltage: what's your mail address? | 04:43 |
| lucasvo | or your LP name? | 04:43 |
| highvoltage | lucasvo: jonathan | 04:43 |
| cbx33 | ogra, in glade, how can I grey a box out | 04:44 |
| cbx33 | so a button cannot be pressed | 04:44 |
| ogra | set_sensitive | 04:44 |
| cbx33 | ok cool | 04:44 |
| cbx33 | same for a text entry field? | 04:44 |
| lucasvo | highvoltage: sent | 04:44 |
| ogra | for every widget+ | 04:45 |
| highvoltage | lucasvo: thanks! | 04:46 |
| cbx33 | highvoltage, what do you think about the link? | 04:46 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: i looked on the wiki, but it seems that that is the page where edubuntu meeting minutes are linked from | 04:47 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: is there even an edubuntu specific page with links to the specific minutes? | 04:48 |
| cbx33 | hmmm | 04:48 |
| cbx33 | hang on | 04:48 |
| cbx33 | highvoltage, i was talking about should we have a link to https://wiki.edubuntu.org/EdubuntuMeetingRecordsNew | 04:48 |
| highvoltage | aaaah | 04:49 |
| cbx33 | highvoltage, I'm curious did you make the khangman screenshot on the front page? | 04:49 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: yes. why? | 04:50 |
| lucasvo | http://www.edubuntu.org/EdubuntuForSchools < the paragraph Common questions should be a link to the FAQ | 04:50 |
| cbx33 | hehe | 04:50 |
| cbx33 | you didn;t by any change type in edubuntu as the letters for your guesses did you ???? :p | 04:50 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: yes. i *must* have hidden messages in my khangman screenshots. it's an edubuntu tradition! | 04:50 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: previous messages in the khangman screenshots have been controversial ;) | 04:51 |
| cbx33 | no no, I did nthe same when i did my screen shot | 04:51 |
| ogra | oh yes, it was very controversial :) | 04:51 |
| cbx33 | what was it | 04:52 |
| cbx33 | doooo tell | 04:52 |
| cbx33 | highvoltage, I've noticed a slight problem with the edubuntu.org site, when viewed in konqueror | 04:52 |
| cbx33 | if you size it smaller, the nav jumps down to below the text | 04:52 |
| lucasvo | highvoltage: could you please add a login box to the site? | 04:52 |
| cbx33 | lucasvo, not needed | 04:52 |
| highvoltage | lucasvo: we'll add it when znarl sorts out the mail | 04:52 |
| cbx33 | :p | 04:52 |
| lucasvo | cbx33: how should on login? | 04:53 |
| highvoltage | lucasvo: before he does that there's little point, since people can't register themselves | 04:53 |
| cbx33 | edubuntu.org/?q=user | 04:53 |
| lucasvo | highvoltage: I would like to login :) | 04:53 |
| highvoltage | just go to /user/login | 04:53 |
| ogra | the website itself should stay closed as the ubuntu one is | 04:53 |
| ogra | only the community parts in it should be editable | 04:53 |
| cbx33 | brb | 04:53 |
| highvoltage | ogra: people who get login access won't automatically be able to edit pages | 04:54 |
| ogra | yes, thats what i mean ... | 04:54 |
| ogra | only fo rthe forum or howto sections | 04:54 |
| highvoltage | ogra: only people who i add to the 'editors' group, such as yourself, pips1, cbx33 and lucasvo can edit | 04:54 |
| ogra | yep | 04:54 |
| lucasvo | *lol* | 04:54 |
| highvoltage | forum? :( | 04:54 |
| lucasvo | highvoltage: I don't get the forgot password mail | 04:55 |
| ogra | also wasnt it planned to attach it to LP before release ? | 04:55 |
| lucasvo | ogra: you mean the login? | 04:55 |
| ogra | lucasvo, yes, that was a requirement | 04:55 |
| highvoltage | ogra: yes, it was, but LP admins said that they won't auth across boxes from LP, and they consider drupal too insecure to run on the same box as LP | 04:55 |
| ogra | so you can use your LP login like everywhere else | 04:56 |
| highvoltage | ogra: so it doesn't seam that we'll have LP auth with drupal any time soon :/ | 04:56 |
| ogra | then we wont have a forum etc ... | 04:56 |
| ogra | :/ | 04:56 |
| highvoltage | ogra: do we really want a forum? | 04:56 |
| ogra | users want one | 04:56 |
| highvoltage | *sigh* you're right | 04:56 |
| lucasvo | ogra: ubuntuforums.org? | 04:56 |
| cbx33 | an official one | 04:56 |
| ogra | i have many german teachers that are interested | 04:56 |
| lucasvo | forum is like faq | 04:57 |
| ogra | ?? | 04:57 |
| lucasvo | it just shows that the documentation is incomplete | 04:57 |
| ogra | forum has several other purposes | 04:57 |
| cbx33 | ogra - File "./gisomount", line 46 | 04:57 |
| cbx33 | button[] ="" | 04:57 |
| highvoltage | the thing about forums is, people who tend to be knowledgable don't participate ther | 04:57 |
| highvoltage | so it ends up being very noisy places with very low signal ratios | 04:57 |
| cbx33 | highvoltage, yes, they tend to use ML's instead | 04:58 |
| ogra | thats fine for our purpose | 04:58 |
| highvoltage | ok :) | 04:58 |
| lucasvo | highvoltage: they aren't in #ubuntu either :) | 04:58 |
| cbx33 | it didn't like that ogra | 04:58 |
| ogra | they can discuss teaqching material etc | 04:58 |
| ogra | its not supposed to be a technical help center | 04:58 |
| ogra | and the demand for it stands since more than 7 months now | 04:58 |
| Yagisan | lucasvo: I'd disagree with your forum is like a faq statement | 04:59 |
| lucasvo | highvoltage: could you please reset my password, since I can't change mine. I don't get the mails | 04:59 |
| lucasvo | Yagisan: of course it's not 100% true | 04:59 |
| lucasvo | but in several ways it is. | 04:59 |
| lucasvo | especially howto forums | 04:59 |
| Yagisan | lucasvo: none of my projects use a forum as a faq | 04:59 |
| highvoltage | ogra: ok, then let's have the forums. they won't be able to log in with LP accounts though, but I think we can survive until we get that without it | 04:59 |
| highvoltage | lucasvo: ok | 05:00 |
| ogra | highvoltage, nope, i'll try to arrange soemthing different during edgy | 05:00 |
| highvoltage | ogra: ok | 05:00 |
| ogra | we can ask for a subsection on ubuntuusers for now | 05:00 |
| lucasvo | yeah | 05:01 |
| highvoltage | ogra: with 'something', you mean LP auth? | 05:01 |
| ogra | even i'm not happy about that | 05:01 |
| lucasvo | ogra: maybe even ubuntuusers.de for german teachers | 05:01 |
| cbx33 | highvoltage, http://www.progbox.co.uk/Screenshot-4.png | 05:01 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: ouch, i see what you mean. i thought you meant something else | 05:02 |
| cbx33 | nope...just thought I'd mention it | 05:02 |
| highvoltage | ogra: i'm not following you. are you unhappy about not having forums, or the lp auth? | 05:02 |
| cbx33 | ogra, any reason why that python line failed | 05:02 |
| cbx33 | button[] ="" | 05:02 |
| cbx33 | File "./gisomount", line 46 | 05:02 |
| ogra | probably its ='' | 05:02 |
| cbx33 | button[] ="" | 05:02 |
| cbx33 | ^ | 05:02 |
| cbx33 | SyntaxError: invalid syntax | 05:02 |
| cbx33 | oh ok | 05:03 |
| ogra | or button=[] | 05:03 |
| ogra | not sure, i'm currently not doing any py | 05:03 |
| cbx33 | ok.... | 05:03 |
| cbx33 | i had button=[] before | 05:03 |
| cbx33 | and that works but when i come to add something....it doeslike it.... - eg button[0] =gtk.Button("New") | 05:04 |
| cbx33 | Traceback (most recent call last): | 05:04 |
| cbx33 | File "./gisomount", line 47, in on_add | 05:04 |

| ogra | http://people.ubuntu.com/~ogra/bzr-archive/hwdb-client/hwdb-gui | 05:04 |
| ogra | see there | 05:04 |
| cbx33 | ok | 05:04 |
| ogra | but as i said, every py programmer will scream | 05:05 |
| ogra | so rather do it in glade | 05:05 |
| ogra | and use hide/show | 05:05 |
| cbx33 | ok | 05:05 |
| cbx33 | then i suppose when I'm trying to refernece, I can use string conc***** what ever it's called, to choose like "button"+count | 05:07 |
| lucasvo | cbx33: do you agree if I merge the Common questions of EforSchools with the EFAQ? | 05:07 |
| cbx33 | to get button1 | 05:07 |
| cbx33 | lucasvo, do you mean replace parts of ESA | 05:07 |
| lucasvo | cbx33: I could make a link to the faq | 05:07 |
| lucasvo | http://www.edubuntu.org/EdubuntuForSchools | 05:08 |
| cbx33 | I would prefer adding a link to the FAQ | 05:08 |
| === loogaroo [n=manuel@85-124-206-159.dynamic.xdsl-line.inode.at] has left #edubuntu [] | ||
| cbx33 | then I can do the same in the ESA document that is in the svn repo | 05:08 |
| lucasvo | cbx33: I added the common questions to the faq | 05:08 |
| lucasvo | now, can I remove this section and make a link to the faq? | 05:08 |
| cbx33 | I'd prefer it if you didn't remove..... ogra highvoltage what are your thoughts...I'd like to keep ESA consistent | 05:09 |
| lucasvo | EFS==ESA? | 05:10 |
| cbx33 | ESA | 05:11 |
| ogra | keep it as it is now ... | 05:11 |
| lucasvo | uh, the title Edubunt Homepage is <h2> | 05:12 |
| lucasvo | while Linux for young human beings is <h1> | 05:13 |
| lucasvo | thats not very seach engine friendly! | 05:13 |
| cbx33 | highvoltage, which do you prefer | 05:13 |
| cbx33 | we should standardise throughout the site | 05:13 |
| highvoltage | lucasvo: that's strange | 05:13 |
| lucasvo | cbx33: as well in ESA you use h1 | 05:13 |
| highvoltage | lucasvo: ah, i know why | 05:14 |
| lucasvo | <h2 class="main-title">Edubuntu Home Page</h2> | 05:14 |
| highvoltage | lucasvo: it's because it's origins are from other html documents | 05:14 |
| cbx33 | hehe | 05:14 |
| lucasvo | <h2 class="main-title">Edubuntu in schools</h2> | 05:14 |
| lucasvo | <h1>The Edubuntu Difference</h1> | 05:14 |
| lucasvo | that's not very reasonable :) | 05:14 |
| cbx33 | hmmm | 05:15 |
| cbx33 | lemme check that | 05:15 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: that's another thing to keep in mind when we edit pages | 05:15 |
| ogra | put a template anywhere | 05:15 |
| ogra | as a policy document | 05:15 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: we should put together a kind of 'editors guide' for the website editors, to... yes, what ogra says :) | 05:16 |
| cbx33 | yes | 05:16 |

| cbx33 | that's what I want to know :p | 05:17 |
| cbx33 | I'll change all mine to h2 | 05:17 |
| cbx33 | shall i? | 05:17 |
| lucasvo | cbx33: yes | 05:17 |
| ogra | can the "(intel chipsets)" please be changed to intel CPUs or intel processors in the FAQ ? | 05:17 |
| cbx33 | then h3 for the subsections | 05:17 |
| highvoltage | lucasvo: ok, i just started | 05:17 |
| lucasvo | cbx33: on all other pages it's like this | 05:17 |
| highvoltage | lucasvo: but you can take it over | 05:17 |
| lucasvo | highvoltage: oh, ok | 05:17 |
| lucasvo | highvoltage: where? | 05:17 |
| highvoltage | lucasvo: you are very sensible :) | 05:17 |
| cbx33 | hehe | 05:18 |
| highvoltage | lucasvo: http://www.edubuntu.org/node/19 | 05:18 |
| lucasvo | highvoltage: why? | 05:18 |
| highvoltage | lucasvo: well, both cbx33 and I haven't really picked up on the headings thing, and you did. just take the compliment :p | 05:19 |
| cbx33 | heh | 05:19 |
| === cbx33 be stupid :p | ||
| highvoltage | cbx33: nah, you're not :) | 05:20 |
| cbx33 | ogra, did you want the ESA to have it's common questions or for the link to be added to FAQ? | 05:20 |
| cbx33 | i took it one way and I think lucasvo took it the other... :p | 05:20 |
| cbx33 | :S | 05:20 |
| ogra | <ogra> keep it as it is now ... | 05:21 |
| highvoltage | i think drupal should actually not use <h1> and <h2> in the page, so that an editor can use it logically | 05:21 |
| ogra | whats there to misunderstand ? | 05:21 |
| cbx33 | i didn;t know if that was before or after lucasvo edited it | 05:21 |
| lucasvo | highvoltage: no | 05:21 |
| ogra | keep like in "dont change it" :) | 05:21 |
| ogra | or like in "dont change it as it was originally" | 05:21 |
| cbx33 | lucasvo, do you have those sections to put them back in? | 05:22 |
| lucasvo | highvoltage: because search engines look for h1 | 05:22 |
| highvoltage | lucasvo: aah | 05:22 |
| lucasvo | cbx33: yes, I will do it | 05:22 |
| cbx33 | highvoltage, i think h1 is on | 05:22 |
| cbx33 | ok | 05:22 |
| ogra | i'm not constantly reloading that pacge and follow your changes every minute | 05:22 |
| lucasvo | highvoltage: so the page title should be H1 | 05:22 |
| cbx33 | but it shouldn't use h2 | 05:22 |
| lucasvo | cbx33: of course! | 05:22 |
| cbx33 | :p | 05:22 |
| lucasvo | and if so, it shouldn't be bigger then h1 :) | 05:23 |
| cbx33 | yes | 05:23 |
| lucasvo | cbx33: are you currently editing esa? | 05:23 |
| cbx33 | lucasvo, no | 05:23 |
| lucasvo | cbx33: should I redo the h1,h2,h3..? | 05:23 |
| highvoltage | lucasvo: i've attached edubuntu.tar to EditorsGuide | 05:23 |
| lucasvo | or did you already do it? | 05:24 |
| cbx33 | already done | 05:24 |
| ogra | please dont randomly change the FAQ, i'll have to get approval for the changes there from silbs | 05:24 |
| cbx33 | ogra, if i have 5 buttons which all do the same thing....but should act on different fields.....can i add paramteres to the handler? | 05:24 |
| highvoltage | lucasvo: it's the edubuntu drupal theme, if people want to install it locally or to hack | 05:24 |
| lucasvo | ok | 05:24 |
| highvoltage | lucasvo: can you also refer to it in the Guide? | 05:24 |
| lucasvo | highvoltage: I don't see the attachement :) | 05:24 |
| cbx33 | ogra, so when ia creat a signal instead of just running... on_click....it can run on_click("button1") | 05:25 |
| highvoltage | lucasvo: i just pressed submit. i think you were too fast for me there | 05:25 |
| ogra | cbx33, sure | 05:25 |
| cbx33 | thank you....sorry for the n00bish questions | 05:25 |

| ogra | highvoltage, <ogra> can the "(intel chipsets)" please be changed to intel CPUs or intel processors in the FAQ ? | 05:28 |
| highvoltage | ah, ok | 05:28 |
| ogra | but please dont make other changes to the FAQ page, as i said above i need to get approval for every change from silbs for them | 05:28 |
| lucasvo | cbx33: I only lost one question, the one about where to get edubuntu | 05:29 |
| ogra | since the FAQs need to be consistent over {ed,k}ubuntu | 05:29 |
| highvoltage | ogra: i'd just like to change the next release version from '6.04' to 6.06 | 05:29 |
| lucasvo | cbx33: why is this: https://wiki.edubuntu.org/EdubuntuSchoolAdvocacy different to: http://www.edubuntu.org/EdubuntuForSchools ? | 05:29 |

| highvoltage | lucasvo: the wiki FAQ now only contains a link to the www one | 05:30 |
| highvoltage | (sorry, thought you were talking about FAQ) | 05:30 |
| ogra | whats the purpose of the name EdubuntuForSchools ?? | 05:30 |
| ogra | our system is intended for shools first place | 05:30 |
| highvoltage | ogra: we couldn't think of a better name for it :( | 05:30 |
| ogra | so indeed edubuntu is for schools | 05:31 |
| highvoltage | ogra: i know it states the obvious. other suggestoins? | 05:31 |
| ogra | it somehow indicates that edubuntu in schools is something special | 05:31 |
| highvoltage | good point | 05:31 |
| ogra | not really ... | 05:31 |
| ogra | but we should find something ... | 05:31 |
| highvoltage | perhaps UsingEdubuntu | 05:31 |
| highvoltage | would be better? | 05:32 |
| ogra | yeah | 05:32 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: can you apply that? unless you have more suggestions? | 05:32 |
| cbx33 | ogra, when a button is clicked in python the functions always have the parameters like so def on_mount(self,widget): | 05:32 |
| cbx33 | highvoltage, sure | 05:32 |
| cbx33 | ogra, how do i add a parameter to be passed back in glade signals | 05:32 |
| ogra | EdubuntuSchoolAdvocacy is nice because it indicates promotional stuff but EdubuntuForSchools seems redundant | 05:33 |
| cbx33 | ogra, yes, but we didnt want to put Advocacy on the site :p | 05:33 |
| highvoltage | Advocacy is a horrible word in any advocacy doc though | 05:33 |
| ogra | up to the native speakers then :) | 05:34 |
| highvoltage | that would be cbx33 then :) | 05:34 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: we leave it to you | 05:34 |
| cbx33 | Using Edubuntu it is | 05:34 |
| highvoltage | ogra: are you getting some sleep at least lately? | 05:35 |
| cbx33 | he'd better be | 05:35 |
| ogra | i had some last night, yes :) | 05:35 |
| ogra | and i will have some this night ... | 05:35 |
| highvoltage | nice. sounds like Edubuntu is nicely on track :) | 05:35 |

| highvoltage | ogra: that's like, almost nearly complete freeze, right? | 05:36 |
| === Lord_Athur [n=alejandr@201.214.38.110] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| ogra | highvoltage, yep, monday or tuesday we'll roll the final isos ... from then on it will only be testing | 05:37 |
| highvoltage | exciting stuff | 05:37 |
| ogra | yep | 05:37 |
| jsgotangco | woohoooo | 05:38 |
| lucasvo | we should make a Help page on the wiki | 05:38 |
| lucasvo | I mean on the home page | 05:38 |
| === jsgotangco would like to announce that picasa on linux is a piece of crap | ||
| cbx33 | ogra, in def on_mount(self,widget): - which is a signal handler what do self and widget do | 05:38 |
| lucasvo | where we list the irc channels, forums and mailing lists | 05:38 |
| ogra | jsgotangco, and, do you have any real news ? :P | 05:39 |
| highvoltage | jsgotangco: don't believe the hype! | 05:39 |
| cbx33 | is widget the name of the widget that initiated the signal? | 05:39 |
| highvoltage | lucasvo: yep, help page is good idea | 05:39 |
| jsgotangco | ogra: yeah i got to fix our toilet a few yours ago | 05:39 |
| lucasvo | highvoltage: what do you think should be written on the editors guide? | 05:39 |
| highvoltage | lucasvo: "Help & Support" even better :) | 05:39 |
| ogra | jsgotangco, now *thats* exciting, tell us more | 05:39 |
| ogra | did you find any treasures ? | 05:39 |
| jsgotangco | it was pretty messy | 05:40 |
| cbx33 | yuk | 05:40 |
| jsgotangco | but it reminded me of our colours as well | 05:40 |
| ogra | gold or oil ? | 05:40 |
| jsgotangco | more like methane gas | 05:40 |
| ogra | lol | 05:40 |
| highvoltage | lucasvo: things like, don't use <h1>... and things like WikiStyleURLPaths, etc | 05:40 |
| ogra | dont smoke in te toilet then :) | 05:40 |
| highvoltage | lucasvo: we'll probably populate it as we go along, and find mistakes that we make, and prevent newcommers from the future to not do the same | 05:40 |
| cbx33 | highvoltage, yup | 05:41 |
| Bluekuja | hello guys | 05:41 |
| jsgotangco | so what's happening here? | 05:41 |
| jsgotangco | oh btw | 05:41 |
| jsgotangco | AMD64 build today is fine | 05:41 |
| jsgotangco | (if that's exciting) | 05:41 |
| highvoltage | it is. | 05:41 |
| Bluekuja | cbx33: did you ping me before? | 05:41 |
| ogra | jsgotangco, wohooo, sure that is | 05:42 |
| ogra | thanks for testing !! | 05:42 |
| cbx33 | Bluekuja, nope | 05:42 |
| jsgotangco | i have an i386 being installed at the moment too | 05:42 |
| Bluekuja | cbx33: oh oki | 05:42 |
| Yagisan | cbx33: jsgotangco: to busy to test deng ? (I don't see any emails from either of you) | 05:42 |
| jsgotangco | Yagisan: ouch... | 05:42 |
| ogra | jsgotangco, should be fine as well ... i wouldnt expect any regressions | 05:42 |
| cbx33 | Yagisan, :( | 05:43 |
| === jsgotangco promises to test deng after release | ||
| === cbx33 too | ||
| Yagisan | jsgotangco: cbx33: my reason for asking is, we release beta4 tomorrow (after I fix build system breakage), and I wanted to know if you wanted to continue getting snapshots during the beta5 release cycle | 05:44 |
| cbx33 | yes i surely do | 05:45 |
| cbx33 | I've just been swamped right not | 05:45 |
| cbx33 | now | 05:45 |
| cbx33 | though I should be able to work from home for a few days next week | 05:45 |
| === caravena [n=caravena@2-45-112.adsl.terra.cl] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| jsgotangco | i would probably be busy with amd64 in a few days till release | 05:45 |
| Yagisan | cbx33: I understand. I'm busy too, then the day before release I get the build system busted on me :( | 05:45 |
| === jsgotangco gets to save 80MB of space by removing picasa | ||
| lucasvo | I began with a Help and Support page: http://www.edubuntu.org/node/20 | 05:50 |
| lucasvo | but why can't I make tbales? | 05:50 |
| jsgotangco | hmmm | 05:51 |
| === jsgotangco seems to have stumbled into a website construction site | ||
| lucasvo | jsgotangco: ? | 05:51 |
| jsgotangco | you all fixing up the edubuntu site? | 05:51 |
| lucasvo | yes | 05:51 |
| highvoltage | jsgotangco: yep | 05:51 |
| lucasvo | highvoltage: why can't I make tables?! | 05:52 |
| jsgotangco | looks tiny in epi | 05:52 |
| highvoltage | lucasvo: have you enabled 'full html' in the input field? | 05:52 |
| lucasvo | highvoltage: ah ok | 05:52 |
| lucasvo | thanks | 05:52 |
| highvoltage | jsgotangco: i noticed it in galeon too... we're going to change the way the font sizes are specified in css | 05:53 |
| jsgotangco | highvoltage: its actually epiphany's behavior, everything is rendered a font size smaller | 05:53 |
| highvoltage | is it? do you think galeon does it the same way? | 05:53 |
| highvoltage | (seems like it does) | 05:53 |
| jsgotangco | i dunno | 05:54 |
| jsgotangco | epi uses gecko | 05:54 |
| highvoltage | ogra: is Xubuntu still an unofficial Ubuntu distro? | 05:54 |
| lucasvo | lol | 05:55 |
| lucasvo | drupal is buggy | 05:55 |
| highvoltage | ogra: i mean... may we put it under "Related Projects"? or is that a silbs question? | 05:55 |
| lucasvo | in Preview trimmed version it cuts off half of the table | 05:55 |
| lucasvo | so the Full preview is in one cell of the trimmed preview | 05:55 |
| highvoltage | heh. i don't think they want you to use tables at all ;) | 05:56 |
| ogra | highvoltage, thats a silbs question i can ask on monday | 05:56 |
| cbx33 | ogra, sorry to bother you again...with a glade question...I've searched high and low across the net | 05:57 |
| cbx33 | with a button.... | 05:57 |
| highvoltage | ogra: thanks | 05:57 |
| cbx33 | clicked(button, data) | 05:57 |
| cbx33 | is the signal prototype | 05:57 |
| cbx33 | so in the handler box in glade you put the function name | 05:58 |
| cbx33 | for example | 05:58 |
| cbx33 | on_clicked | 05:58 |
| cbx33 | but if I want to pass back some more information | 05:58 |
| cbx33 | so that it's like | 05:58 |
| cbx33 | on_clicked("2") | 05:58 |
| cbx33 | but still have the button, data information passed too | 05:58 |
| cbx33 | how do i do this? | 05:58 |
| lucasvo | cbx33, ogra, highvoltage: should I create a link in the menu to this page: http://www.edubuntu.org/node/20 | 05:59 |
| lucasvo | I want to add a section "How you can help" as well | 05:59 |
| ogra | would you call it "Access Denied" ? | 05:59 |
| ogra | ;P | 05:59 |
| lucasvo | ogra: login | 05:59 |
| lucasvo | it's not published | 06:00 |
| lucasvo | ogra: try again | 06:00 |
| lucasvo | oh | 06:00 |
| lucasvo | there's a typo | 06:00 |
| lucasvo | :) | 06:00 |
| ogra | 7me wonders why jelkner still shows up in all our docs | 06:00 |
| lucasvo | :) | 06:00 |
| ogra | there is also a -es channel :) | 06:00 |
| lucasvo | ok | 06:00 |
| cbx33 | and irch is a typo | 06:01 |
| jsgotangco | ogra: virus? | 06:01 |
| === jsgotangco hides | ||
| lucasvo | cbx33: just updated it | 06:01 |
| cbx33 | lucasvo, mailing <space> list i think would be better | 06:02 |
| ogra | jsgotangco, elkner ? | 06:02 |
| ogra | heh | 06:02 |
| ogra | also dont forget we have edubuntu-users now | 06:02 |
| jsgotangco | oh! | 06:03 |
| ogra | +(only -devel is listed) | 06:03 |
| jsgotangco | ahhh | 06:03 |
| cbx33 | ogra, is it working now? | 06:03 |
| === HedgeMage [i=HedgeMag@freenode/staff/HedgeMage] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| cbx33 | hi HedgeMage | 06:03 |
| lucasvo | ogra: is there another one as well? | 06:03 |
| ogra | cbx33, no idea i didnt care for it yet, will do so before release, but its switched on and all -devel users are autosubscribed to it ... send a testmail and you will know ;) | 06:04 |
| lucasvo | ogra: I have copied it from the wiki page Edubuntu | 06:04 |
| cbx33 | ok | 06:04 |
| cbx33 | lucasvo, I did that page:p | 06:04 |
| cbx33 | but didn;t know about it then | 06:04 |
| cbx33 | it was a rehash of the old one | 06:04 |
| cbx33 | ogra, does jelkner not handle education anymore ? | 06:06 |
| ogra | cbx33, he doesnt do anything ... he only shows up in the meetings from time to time for 10-20 mins ... | 06:07 |
| lucasvo | he occasionally comes in and you have to tell him to type sudo ltsp-update-ssh-keys :) | 06:07 |
| ogra | i'd really like to see someone more involved responsible for education | 06:07 |
| cbx33 | ogra, want someone else to take over education contact? | 06:07 |
| HedgeMage | hi cbx33, lucasvo, ogra :) | 06:07 |
| === lucasvo is still being educated | ||
| lucasvo | hi HedgeMage | 06:07 |
| === cbx33 is IT manager at a school | ||
| ogra | cbx33, i dont know anyone who could take that | 06:08 |
| === Yagisan pretends to be a school | ||
| HedgeMage | lol | 06:08 |
| ogra | cbx33, exactly what we dont want there :) | 06:08 |
| HedgeMage | ogra: what's involved? | 06:08 |
| cbx33 | it's pretty tough some days | 06:08 |
| cbx33 | we do get _A LOT_ of abuse | 06:08 |
| ogra | it should be nobody who has big tech skills and he should work as a teacher with edubuntu on a daily base | 06:08 |
| ogra | we dont have such a person yet | 06:09 |
| cbx33 | heh..... | 06:09 |
| Yagisan | cbx33: you poor thing | 06:09 |
| cbx33 | i have some tech skills | 06:09 |
| cbx33 | and i do teach edubuntu to the kids | 06:09 |
| cbx33 | :p | 06:09 |
| cbx33 | but i see what you mean | 06:09 |
| ogra | read: a "power user" but no IT manager ;) | 06:09 |
| Yagisan | ah, so a MSCE certified chimp | 06:10 |
| cbx33 | IT manager is my offical title :p | 06:10 |
| HedgeMage | roflmao | 06:10 |
| cbx33 | but I'm pretty much ANYTHING IT | 06:10 |
| cbx33 | as in support, teaching...though not curriculum | 06:10 |
| ogra | someone who can eaasily share the POV of other teachers and isnt too much involved in development | 06:10 |
| Yagisan | apologies to MSCE chimps that earned, rather then bought their certs | 06:10 |
| cbx33 | ogra, is it worth just removing that till we get someone? | 06:11 |
| HedgeMage | ogra: if you give me an idea of what we'd need the person to do, I can attempt to recruit from the teachers I know (esp. the ones I'm working on converting to edubuntu as we speak) | 06:11 |
| highvoltage | lucasvo: i would take that table out | 06:11 |
| lucasvo | highvoltage: why? | 06:12 |
| highvoltage | lucasvo: ogra will be flooded by people with support questions that should actually go to the -users list | 06:12 |
| ogra | HedgeMage, giving a hand with eduapp stuff and "teaching processes" | 06:12 |
| lucasvo | highvoltage: this page has been in the wiki for about a year and ogra didn't compain so far | 06:12 |
| lucasvo | :) | 06:12 |
| === HedgeMage nods | ||
| HedgeMage | ogra: I have someone in mind, but she's a *very* new convert (as in I finally got her to try it this week, but she's loving it) | 06:13 |
| lucasvo | <p>If you have any questions, comments or enquiries please direct these to:</p> one should change this sentence | 06:13 |
| HedgeMage | ogra: third grade public school teacher from Indiana | 06:13 |
| ogra | HedgeMage, someone who can write a mail to desperate users like: how i use kvoctrain to effectively teach my students the basics in spanish language | 06:13 |
| HedgeMage | not sure if she'd have time, though. | 06:13 |
| highvoltage | imho, ogra should be absolute top level support, not first line of support | 06:13 |
| jsgotangco | ogra: thought we have 3 wallpapers? | 06:13 |
| ogra | jsgotangco, ?? | 06:14 |
| === HedgeMage nods to ogra | ||
| highvoltage | users should ask on the lists first (to which ogra is subscribed anyway) | 06:14 |
| jsgotangco | ogra: what's the package again to dpkg-reconfigure? | 06:14 |
| highvoltage | and if he wants to help, then it's up to him. but in peak times, i don't think it's reasonable for ogra to get e-mails about how to change resolution on thin clients, etc | 06:14 |
| ogra | HedgeMage, " *very* new convert" but communicative is perfect | 06:14 |
| ogra | HedgeMage, since she'll know the starter probs ;) | 06:15 |
| HedgeMage | ogra: I'll ask her in that case... probably won't talk to her until next week, though (this is a big holiday weekend in the US) | 06:15 |
| HedgeMage | especially for teachers... | 06:15 |
| ogra | jsgotangco, you mean edubuntu-artwork ? | 06:15 |
| lucasvo | highvoltage: what do you think of this: <p>If you have any comments or enquiries please direct these to one of the following Edubuntu member. Please do NOT send support requests to these persons, use the <b>mailing list.</b></p> ? | 06:15 |
| jsgotangco | ogra: young/default/plain | 06:16 |
| highvoltage | lucasvo: that's better at least. in the sense that it doesn't imply first level support | 06:16 |
| jsgotangco | yeah | 06:16 |
| ogra | HedgeMage, thats fine ... just having someone who is more involved than appearing once a month in the meeting would be desirable | 06:16 |
| ogra | jsgotangco, plain has no wallpaper | 06:16 |
| HedgeMage | ogra: understood | 06:16 |
| ogra | its "plain" | 06:16 |
| === jsgotangco doesn't see the difference of having 3 themes - they still have the same ff page and gdm | ||
| jsgotangco | just wallpaper | 06:16 |
| highvoltage | i think the plain one has a simpler gtk theme as well | 06:17 |
| highvoltage | right ogra? | 06:17 |
| ogra | jsgotangco, icons ;) | 06:17 |
| cbx33 | ogra, how can i get the widgets name from the widget object? | 06:17 |
| ogra | nope, the gtk theme is the same, but plain doesnt use gartoon | 06:17 |
| jsgotangco | yeah | 06:17 |
| HedgeMage | anyhow, I'm off to plug away at cookbook stuff... if I'm needed, highlight and/or IM me and I'll notice eventually :) | 06:18 |
| ogra | plain is the first attempt to have somnething more suitable for unis or municipalities | 06:18 |
| === spacey [n=herman@ubuntu/member/spacey] has joined #edubuntu | ||

| === ogra wonders if he should put that on his business cards | ||
| highvoltage | hehe | 06:23 |
| highvoltage | general electric | 06:23 |
| ogra | "edubuntu technical general" | 06:23 |
| highvoltage | you'd be good friends :) | 06:23 |
| ogra | heh | 06:23 |
| highvoltage | yes sir! | 06:24 |
| ogra | i'll tell him if i ever meet him :P | 06:24 |
| ogra | (in fact i had several courses at GE some years ago) | 06:24 |
| highvoltage | well, my nick is highvoltage, so i can be General Electric :) | 06:24 |
| jsgotangco | ? | 06:25 |
| ogra | jsgotangco, http://www.edubuntu.org/node/20 | 06:25 |
| highvoltage | lucasvo: i think you can put it on the menu, we can fine tune ongoing. | 06:25 |
| jsgotangco | ahh | 06:26 |
| === pc22 [n=lo@58.69.6.134] has joined #edubuntu | ||

| Yagisan | G'day pc22 | 06:27 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: oh yes, the khangman screenshots... | 06:27 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: the first one spelled 'wtf', but it was very subtle. it took long before someone noticed it :) | 06:28 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: and then, after that, it spelled 'dbian' | 06:28 |
| jsgotangco | is UsingEdubuntu ESA? | 06:28 |
| pc22 | i wonder if my ubuntu will be infected virus | 06:28 |
| === Yagisan is somewhat busy with software release < 24hrs away, and if I don't get cracking, there will be no linux release | ||
| highvoltage | cbx33: and now 'edbn' | 06:28 |
| Yagisan | pc22: no | 06:28 |
| highvoltage | jsgotangco: yes | 06:28 |
| Yagisan | pc22: unless you do some really dumb stuff | 06:28 |
| pc22 | lol | 06:28 |
| Yagisan | pc22: like run the virus as root, manually | 06:29 |
| === jsgotangco really wants to edit that doc now for grammar | ||
| pc22 | ohh | 06:29 |
| cbx33 | heheh | 06:29 |
| pc22 | i have this small windows network | 06:29 |
| pc22 | i want to test my antivirus so i want to infect it with a virus | 06:29 |
| pc22 | lol | 06:29 |
| jsgotangco | good luck | 06:29 |
| highvoltage | jsgotangco: i see you have a drupal user, do you have your password? | 06:30 |
| ogra | yeah, first find a linux virus :) | 06:30 |
| cbx33 | pc22, there is a test virus | 06:30 |
| Yagisan | pc22: EICAR | 06:30 |
| highvoltage | jsgotangco: i can add you to the editor group too... | 06:30 |
| cbx33 | Thanks Yagisan | 06:30 |
| jsgotangco | highvoltage: i couldn't remember the login page | 06:30 |
| highvoltage | there are a few concept virusses | 06:30 |
| pc22 | whats eicar | 06:30 |
| Yagisan | cbx33: no worries. day job stuff | 06:30 |
| cbx33 | indeed | 06:30 |
| highvoltage | jsgotangco: it's /user/login | 06:30 |
| Yagisan | pc22: test virus | 06:30 |
| cbx33 | thought you'd jump in on that one | 06:30 |
| jsgotangco | non-invasive test virus | 06:30 |
| highvoltage | but none have actually been reproducable in the wild | 06:30 |
| Yagisan | pc22: it's harmless, but it gets detected as a virus | 06:30 |
| cbx33 | I've used it a few times | 06:30 |
| pc22 | i want a real harmful virus | 06:31 |
| Yagisan | pc22: http://www.eicar.org/anti_virus_test_file.htm | 06:31 |
| pc22 | yes im checking the file | 06:31 |
| ogra | pc22, yopu wont find any harmful viruses for linux | 06:31 |
| jsgotangco | yeah | 06:31 |
| jsgotangco | for some strange reason, some work on wine though | 06:32 |
| Yagisan | pc22: basically cat "X5O!P%@AP[4\PZX54(P^)7CC)7}$EICAR-STANDARD-ANTIVIRUS-TEST-FILE!$H+H*" > eicar.exe | 06:32 |
| highvoltage | jsgotangco: you're an editor now | 06:32 |
| jsgotangco | but that only shows how sophisticated wine is | 06:32 |
| Yagisan | ogra: well you can | 06:32 |
| pc22 | like what can slow down my network or even stop the router from routing. this virus is for my 3 pc windows network | 06:32 |
| Yagisan | but they don't do much unless you are root | 06:32 |
| jsgotangco | highvoltage: i couldn't remember my username! | 06:32 |
| ogra | Yagisan, exactly ... so they are pretty pointless in a sudo driven distro | 06:32 |
| pc22 | hi ogra | 06:33 |
| ogra | (unles you work as root all the time, which is dumb anyway) | 06:33 |
| highvoltage | jsgotangco: i think it's more a case of 'you mimic the behaviour of an insecure system, then you also mimic the insecurities' | 06:33 |
| jsgotangco | you might want to key log the sudo user first hthough | 06:33 |
| highvoltage | jsgotangco: i'll PM to you | 06:33 |
| ogra | hey pc22 | 06:33 |
| Yagisan | ogra: sadley, I also support non-ubuntu distros too | 06:33 |
| === Yagisan gets back to work | ||
| ogra | Yagisan, sucks to be you ;) | 06:33 |
| ogra | Yagisan, convince your customers :) | 06:34 |
| pc22 | i have 2 linux pc and 3 windows pc | 06:34 |
| pc22 | i want to try it with a nice harmful virus | 06:35 |
| highvoltage | pc22: i have 12 linux pc's just in my room | 06:35 |
| pc22 | cool | 06:35 |
| pygi | spacey, you here? :P | 06:35 |
| highvoltage | pc22: and one pc that runs windows ce, which is an ipaq locked away in the garage | 06:35 |
| HedgeMage | lol | 06:35 |
| jsgotangco | i only have 3 | 06:35 |
| ogra | highvoltage, why did you lock it away ? because of CE ? | 06:36 |
| highvoltage | ogra: yes | 06:36 |
| pc22 | so anyone can help me check windows viruses for my win network? pls? | 06:36 |
| ogra | (you could use familiar linux on it) | 06:36 |
| highvoltage | ogra: i don't have a cable it to reflash it with linux | 06:36 |
| highvoltage | s/it/yet | 06:36 |
| lucasvo | familiar rocks | 06:37 |
| highvoltage | i don't think i'm ever going to use it. it's old without any bluetooth or wi-fi. | 06:37 |
| highvoltage | one day when i'm rich i'll buy a linux pda :) | 06:37 |
| jsgotangco | i have one | 06:37 |
| jsgotangco | but im not rich | 06:37 |
| lucasvo | linuxpda's aren't better than non linux ones | 06:37 |
| pygi | pc22, use clavav throught samba | 06:38 |
| ogra | bring it to paris ;) i have a serial cradle | 06:38 |
| highvoltage | ogra: oooh!!! will do :) | 06:38 |
| lucasvo | in fact they are often worse | 06:38 |
| lucasvo | highvoltage: I have flashed mine with usb | 06:38 |
| highvoltage | lucasvo: i just want to avoid using any kind of Windows, if at all possible | 06:38 |
| cbx33 | I want linux on my Dell Axim X3i | 06:38 |
| highvoltage | lucasvo: this is still an old ipaq 3600 | 06:38 |
| lucasvo | oh | 06:38 |
| jsgotangco | pfftt puny PDAs could not even compare to my old SL-5500 | 06:38 |
| ogra | yeah i have the same | 06:38 |
| highvoltage | lucasvo: it comes from the era where i still used to use windows. it's *that* old | 06:38 |
| lucasvo | I have a hx4700 | 06:38 |
| ogra | and a 3200 | 06:39 |
| ogra | (black/white) | 06:39 |
| lucasvo | highvoltage: when I was born? ;) | 06:39 |
| highvoltage | black and white pda's are quite handy too- nice battery life. | 06:39 |
| cbx33 | hehehe | 06:39 |
| highvoltage | lucasvo: 1980-something? | 06:39 |
| lucasvo | no, 1990 | 06:39 |

| highvoltage | lucasvo: wow, i thought you were older. | 06:40 |
| Yagisan | ogra: you may not have noticed it, but I do offer an ubuntu migration service, It's not linked from the Ubuntu homepage, so I can see why you'd miss it. | 06:41 |
| jsgotangco | why not have it listed? | 06:41 |
| ogra | yeah | 06:41 |
| highvoltage | ogra: about the ubuntu partners thing, can you ask silbs if something similar can be implemented for edubuntu too? | 06:41 |
| highvoltage | ogra: (in a sense that we can talk about it on website) | 06:41 |
| Yagisan | jsgotangco: on my todo list | 06:41 |
| ogra | highvoltage, sure | 06:42 |
| ogra | good idea | 06:42 |
| highvoltage | cool | 06:42 |
| HedgeMage | ogra: have you seen Dark Crystal yet? :P | 06:42 |
| Yagisan | jsgotangco: I'll get around to it, when my wife heals enough for me to take on more work | 06:43 |
| ogra | HedgeMage, the movie ? | 06:43 |
| === Yagisan would happily support edubuntu | ||
| Yagisan | HedgeMage: torrent link pls ;) | 06:43 |
| highvoltage | tuxlabs would also be interested, since it's going to be a commercial company in about two months | 06:43 |
| === JaneW [n=JaneW@dsl-165-221-208.telkomadsl.co.za] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| HedgeMage | ogra: yes, the movie with a character named Ogra :P | 06:44 |
| cbx33 | w0000t it's working | 06:44 |
| jsgotangco | lol | 06:44 |
| Yagisan | HedgeMage: haven't seen that movie since I was a kid | 06:44 |
| cbx33 | thanks for not telling me the answer ogra - I learnt so much now :D | 06:44 |
| jsgotangco | highvoltage: tuxlabs is going commercial? | 06:44 |
| ogra | HedgeMage, when i was a teen i saw it in the cinema, but i wouldnt have remembered that :) | 06:44 |
| highvoltage | jsgotangco: yep | 06:44 |
| HedgeMage | lol | 06:44 |
| highvoltage | jsgotangco: TSF only funds a project for 4 years (first phase) | 06:45 |
| highvoltage | this is the fourth year of tuxlabs funding | 06:45 |
| jsgotangco | ahhh | 06:45 |
| highvoltage | so we either have to end it, or find another funder, or make it work commercially. | 06:45 |
| cbx33 | TSF? | 06:45 |
| cbx33 | no i got it | 06:45 |
| cbx33 | nevermind | 06:45 |
| highvoltage | there are lots of big government tenders going out now, so commercially is looking like a very sustainable option at this point. | 06:46 |

| pygi | spacey, hey | 06:48 |
| pygi | may you please add those links? thanks | 06:48 |
| highvoltage | ogra: my rsync is taking very long. screenshots from thursday's daily build should be fine for docs, right? | 06:48 |
| ogra | highvoltage, yep | 06:48 |
| jsgotangco | should be | 06:48 |
| ogra | (apart from the mouse theme) | 06:48 |
| cbx33 | ogra, I'm trying that VMware install again | 06:49 |
| highvoltage | heh, ok. | 06:49 |
| ogra | just dont forget to note it at the bottom of https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/Current if you test isos | 06:49 |
| highvoltage | ok | 06:50 |
| ogra | that table filled will make my job safer :) | 06:50 |
| cbx33 | ok ogra | 06:50 |
| === highvoltage didn't realise ubuntu supported sparc arch | ||
| ogra | so i wont get fired for lack of iso testing :) | 06:51 |
| ogra | i doesnt (until thursday) | 06:51 |
| Yagisan | ogra: got a spare sparc for us :) | 06:51 |
| ogra | dapper is the first release to support sparc on servers | 06:51 |
| ogra | servers only, not my area | 06:51 |
| jsgotangco | highvoltage: it'll be announced | 06:52 |
| ogra | but since we work so close with SUN now that might change for edgy ;) | 06:52 |
| Yagisan | oh. sounds like a nice desktop ... | 06:52 |
| === highvoltage sees he has a nice excuse to buy a powerpc | ||
| jsgotangco | highvoltage: are you still editing that wiki page? | 06:52 |
| highvoltage | jsgotangco: nope | 06:53 |
| === jsgotangco had to put his kubuntu results | ||
| jsgotangco | This page was opened for editing or last previewed at 2006-05-28 00:51:14 by JonathanCarter. | 06:53 |
| jsgotangco | You should refrain from editing this page for at least another 8 minute(s), to avoid editing conflicts. | 06:53 |
| highvoltage | jsgotangco: i accidentally double-clicked on that page, which went into edit mode, didn't edit anything, so it's safe to edit | 06:53 |
| jsgotangco | ah | 06:53 |
| cbx33 | ogra, you know I'll test for you | 06:57 |
| cbx33 | just give me a bit of notice this time.....i just wasn't aware of it all last time | 06:57 |
| cbx33 | if you give me a day...I'll test 20 instlals for you | 06:57 |
| ogra | from monday on | 06:57 |
| cbx33 | ok.... | 06:58 |
| ogra | until thursday ... as many tests as you can do | 06:58 |
| cbx33 | well I was gonna work from home on tuesday | 06:58 |
| ogra | s/can/like to/ | 06:58 |
| cbx33 | so i can do it then | 06:58 |
| cbx33 | I'm still testing out that VMWare instlal at the moment | 06:58 |
| ogra | try with framebuffer disabled | 06:58 |
| cbx33 | how do i do that | 06:59 |
| cbx33 | shall i restart the installation | 06:59 |
| ogra | something like debian-installer/frambuffer=false on the boot commandline | 06:59 |
| cbx33 | ok | 06:59 |
| cbx33 | what the iso boot command line? | 07:00 |
| ogra | yep | 07:00 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: it's also mentioned in one of the F2, F3, etc option screens | 07:02 |
| jsgotangco | good night | 07:03 |
| ogra | night jsgotangco | 07:04 |
| pygi | spacey, ping ping :) | 07:04 |
| === highvoltage goes back home | ||
| === Yagisan marvels at his simple, yet awful hack to fix rules breakage | ||

| pygi | Amaranth, like what? :-/ | 11:18 |
| Amaranth | pygi: my project and another accepted project are basically the same thing | 11:18 |
| Amaranth | Safety Boat | 11:18 |
| === pygi looks | ||
| Amaranth | basically that project is an epiphany extension that works with my project | 11:18 |
| Amaranth | or should be | 11:18 |
| pygi | Isnt your project willow packaging? | 11:19 |
| Amaranth | well, it kind of changed | 11:19 |
| Amaranth | because willow isn't usable | 11:19 |
| Amaranth | so i have to make my own | 11:19 |
| Amaranth | (or heavily modify willow) | 11:19 |
| pygi | ah, ok | 11:20 |
| pygi | hm ... :-/ | 11:20 |
| pygi | Amaranth, this is indeed not a good situation :-/ | 11:23 |
| pygi | Bluekuja, have you looked at that image I gave you? | 11:23 |
| Bluekuja | pygi: which image?? | 11:23 |
| pygi | Amaranth, do you have any suggestions on how to resolve? | 11:25 |
| Amaranth | pygi: no idea | 11:26 |
| Amaranth | pygi: i don't think my project is a 2 person thing | 11:26 |
| pygi | Amaranth, indeed | 11:26 |
| Bluekuja | pygi: really nice | 11:26 |
| Bluekuja | thats really beatiful | 11:26 |
| pygi | Bluekuja, this is still the first version | 11:27 |

| Bluekuja | lol | 11:28 |
| pygi | Bluekuja, see the "Design by ..." :) | 11:28 |
| Bluekuja | oh aww | 11:28 |
| pygi | Amaranth, I really think we need to think of an idea on how to resolve this | 11:28 |
| Bluekuja | i thought you was a design master | 11:28 |
| Bluekuja | hehe | 11:28 |
| pygi | hehe indeed :) | 11:29 |
| Bluekuja | wanna try a rpm-based package too? | 11:30 |
| Amaranth | pygi: see if he'll work on something else? | 11:30 |
| pygi | Bluekuja, I don't have a rpm system | 11:30 |
| pygi | Amaranth, ergh, like what? :-/ | 11:30 |
| Amaranth | i dunno | 11:31 |
| Bluekuja | use alien then | 11:31 |
| Bluekuja | just to check | 11:31 |
| pygi | ergh, Daniel is probably not here right now... | 11:31 |
| pygi | Amaranth, try finding some idea on wiki that would suit him... | 11:31 |
| pygi | I'll try...actually, I don't know what I'll try, but I'll think of somethin'... | 11:32 |
| Amaranth | i think he should get to choose | 11:32 |
| crimsun | (as in Daniel Holbach?) | 11:32 |
| crimsun | (too many Daniels) | 11:33 |
| pygi | yes, daniel holbach | 11:34 |
| pygi | he's supposed to mentor that guy | 11:34 |
| crimsun | (my nick highlights on Daniel, too, in case you're wondering) | 11:34 |
| pygi | crimsun, yes, I know :) | 11:35 |
| pygi | Bluekuja, I have one server RHEL, could try there perhaps | 11:37 |
| Amaranth | gtg, moving out of wireless range | 11:38 |
