bddebianHello Lord_Athur04:53
Lord_AthurI had ubuntu breezy installed, but I installed on the computer edubuntu-desktop04:53
bddebianOK04:54
Lord_Athurnow i want to upgrade to drapper, but the internet network works very slowly, with windwos it does everything quickly, what can this be?04:54
Lord_Athurbddebian, any idea?+04:56
bddebianSame DNS servers?04:56
bddebianIs it slow on all Internet activity or just with Ubuntu sites?04:56
Lord_Athur:) ubuntu sities04:57
Lord_Athur:P04:57
LaserJockwell, there are a lot of people downloading .iso files an doing upgrades04:58
Lord_Athurbut ubuntu always works fast04:58
bddebianWell they are probably a little busy right now with everyone pulling data/packages to test with :-)04:58
Lord_Athurthanks to all04:58
Lord_Athurmaybe that's why04:58
Lord_Athur:P04:58
LaserJockLord_Athur: are you using the main Ubuntu mirror or a local one04:58
Lord_Athurthe main04:59
Lord_Athurwell I put the sources list from the ubuntu page, so i think it's the main04:59
LaserJockyou might try a closer mirror then and see if that is faster04:59

RobNyc_Cyes05:49
RobNyc_Cthe latest 105:49
BurgundaviaRobNyc_C, I don't think so05:50
bimberiok, you can do the install and once that's done install the edubuntu-desktop package from the internet05:50
RobNyc_Calright 05:50
RobNyc_Ci thought so, cuz distrowatch only provided 1 iso for download and i guess i was gonna be able to install either edu, ubu or xubu05:50
BurgundaviaRobNyc_C, where did distrowatch do that?>05:51
bimberiRobNyc_C: hmmk - there are isos for edubuntu though05:51

jimjimovich2hello all10:14
jimjimovich2i just want to say that i'm really looking forward to the final release of Edubunt dapper10:14
jimjimovich2we're going to switch all our student computers to Edubuntu in June.  Just hoping all goes well.  Got a new server just waiting for the install CD :)10:14
JaneWjimjimovich2: cool10:15
JaneWjimjimovich2: have you placed your pre-order yet?10:15
jimjimovich2we're planning to do a blog every day of the project and post what we learned.  we hope it will be useful for the community10:15
jimjimovich2we pre-ordered, yes.  but will probably need to download because we must finish the project in June10:16
jimjimovich2We're in Russia, so I think it will take a long time to get the CDs by mail10:16
highvoltageogra: we have on old screenshot in gettingstarted.html in edubuntu-docs10:18
highvoltageogra: it still says 'Install a server' for the one option, but i suppose we can live with that?10:19
highvoltageogra: nice modifications, btw, I'm quite satisfied with the docs we have with edubuntu this time, major improvement over last time :)10:20
JaneWjimjimovich2: ah yes and it can take up to 8 weeks after the release for pre-orders to be delivered10:20
JaneWjimjimovich2: there is usually a HUGE backlog10:21
ogracbx33, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg just use the defaults, except for the resolution10:21
ograhighvoltage, dapper-updates ;)10:21
=== ogra is off for more ppc testing bbl
cbx33thanks ogra 10:21

cbx33i just need someone to try this out12:00
cbx33you can try it even when it says detecing hardware to find cd-rom12:00
HedgeMagehi, all12:00
cbx33hi HedgeMage 12:00
cbx33howz the cookbook12:00
HedgeMagecbx33: coming, slowly12:01
cbx33I'm gonna be helping out today12:02
cbx33but i just noticed a bug in di12:02
HedgeMagecbx33: I had a crazy weekend, so I'm just now transcribing the last of my stuff12:02
=== HedgeMage nods
HedgeMageI couldn't help but laugh at the last meeting minutes where it was noted that some cookbook work was "being stored locally"12:02
HedgeMageIn this case "stored locally" roughly translates to "scratched out on the backs of napkins, army paperwork, and other stuff jammed in a folder in HedgeMage's backpack"12:03
cbx33indeed :p12:03
=== HedgeMage giggles
HedgeMageI guess "stored locally" is less verbose, at least, though it somehow brings up images of USB sticks or laptop hard drives in my mind, lacking the visceral quality of the real state of the cookbook :P12:04
cbx33heh12:04
cbx33think you'll be ready today?12:04
HedgeMageYep12:04
cbx33nice12:04
HedgeMagetranscribing the last of what I have as we speak12:04
cbx33I'm working on the missing secions from chap 212:05
HedgeMageat least I can read my own handwriting ;)12:05
HedgeMagecool12:05
cbx33HedgeMage: i ave screenshots12:05
cbx33i was going to use them for my user admin bit12:05
HedgeMagecool12:05
cbx33but i see you already have written one12:05
cbx33we could share :p12:05
HedgeMagehehe :)12:05
HedgeMageMine has gaps... I'm trying to transcribe and proof the other stuff before I tackle "look and feel" and "printing" so if anyone wants a go at those12:06
HedgeMageI think this version of the cookbook is largely an exercise in getting words on paper (or in this case, on wiki) and that the cookbook will really become something with Edgy (not that our present stuff isn't cool, it's just not as cool as it can be)12:07
cbx33did you want my screenshots for your user admin bit?12:07
cbx33HedgeMage: yeh, we'll have a printed version for edgy12:07
cbx33i was going to write an edubuntu book12:08
cbx33but looks like i can pool my efforts into the cookbook12:08
pygicbx33, well, we'll have the real edubuntu book for edgy, so no worries12:08
pygiI just need to make a team to see who really wanna work on it12:08
cbx33pygi: i'll be in on it12:09
pygicbx33, yes, I know you will :)12:09
pygiI'll need to see if jsgotangco and highvoltage are interested in "real book" as well12:10
cbx33ah i see12:10
pygiIf they are, the team is good enough12:10
jsgotangcoreal book = print?12:10
=== HedgeMage nods
HedgeMageyep12:11
pygijsgotangco, yes ;)12:11
pygicbx33, well, they could be of use, dont you think? :)12:11
jsgotangcosure but don't expect me to jump suddenly, i currently am doing one with a publisher and we're expecting it to end by next month12:11
cbx33well as i was going to write one anyway :p12:12
cbx33jsgotangco: an edubuntu book?12:12
pygicbx33, well, you going to work on your own or with us? :P12:12
jsgotangcocbx33: no12:12
cbx33pygi: with you of course12:12
=== HedgeMage bats her eyes at cbx33 and tries to look lovable
cbx33no point putting my efforts into just my own effort12:12
cbx33awwww12:12
cbx33HedgeMage: you won it really12:12
HedgeMagehehe :)12:13
HedgeMageyay!12:13
=== HedgeMage puts her nose to the grindstone again
=== jsgotangco will just sort out this silly visa requirement thing bbl
=== jsgotangco has hassled clan and cvd too much already
HedgeMagepygi: you know what I'm going to do if this gets made into a print book? I'm going to buy two copies and mail them in turn to each of the authors for signatures -- one for me and one for my mom.12:16
cbx33awww12:16
HedgeMage(my mom's all cute about stuff like that, and I just like reminders of cool people I work with)12:17
cbx33HedgeMage: no reason we can't put it into a pdf and print it on lulu12:17
jsgotangcowhat is the license of the current cookbook?12:17
pygijsgotangco, none yet :-P12:17
HedgeMagejsgotangco: uhhh... I don't think we've come up with anything more official than "be nice" yet12:17
pygiHedgeMage, we can put the current book on Lulu12:17
pygiergh12:17
pygicbx33, current one may go to Lulu12:17
HedgeMagewhat's lulu?12:17
pygibut I would like the edgy to be real publisher12:17
HedgeMageone-offs like cafepress but for books?12:18
cbx33nice12:18
pygiHedgeMage, something like thq512:19
pygithat*12:19
pygicafepress can also do book12:20
pygicbx33, do you agree with that?12:20

cbx33hi all12:42
Susanjsgotangco: just wanted to let highvoltage know about a typo on the web site (a kind of bad one)12:42
cbx33 i want to get a screenshot of using the gnome menus12:42
cbx33like system12:42
cbx33apart from doing it on a vmware machine anyone else got any other ways?12:42
jsgotangcoi could probably edit it12:43
cbx33PrntScrn doesn't work12:43
cbx33neither does imagemagick12:43
Susanjsgotangco: on the "Help and Support" page irc.freenode.net is listed as irc.freenode.org (which doesn't exist)12:43
jeffwaddellcbx33 what are you trying to capture again?12:44
cbx33the system gnome menu12:44
cbx33up the top12:44
cbx33i want to show getting to users and groups12:45
jeffwaddellgive me a minute to think about it....12:45
cbx33thank you12:45
jeffwaddellcbx33 i think you will have bind a command to a keypress to manage that12:49
cbx33jeffwaddell: any ideas?12:50
pygicbx33, like one month after dapper release, I suggest we all (people who will write book) upgrade to edgy12:51
cbx33yes12:51
jeffwaddellcbx33, I believe xwd will do the screen capture the trick is having it fire off at the correct moment12:51
pygicbx33, Until then, we can write down general things12:51
jeffwaddellcbx33, to do that will probably require you to bind that command to a keypress12:51
jeffwaddellcbx33, the way to bind that to a keypress that comes to my mind is the hotkeys program12:52
cbx33ok cool thanks12:52
jeffwaddellcbx33, of course if you can bind xwd - you could probably bind imagemagick just as easily and that would be better12:52
cbx33no imagemagick looks fo the mouse to grab which window12:53
jeffwaddellcbx33 well with xwd you can give it the -root option which *should* get around that12:54
jeffwaddellactually you might be able to write a script with a sleep and then have it do the screen capture without bothering with hotkeys...hmm, just a moment12:55
cbx33jeffwaddell: any idea how i convert that dump12:57
jeffwaddellhold on still testing12:58
pygicbx33, I'll have to be away a bit at 12:00 UTC probably for like half an hour, so we'll extend the period for half an hour12:58
cbx33ok, I'm going to have to leave work early to get home12:58
cbx33so i may be a bit late back too12:58
jeffwaddellcbx33, so I know that the script with a delay works as I just did it...now for converting it to png...12:59
cbx33ok i got it 12:59
cbx33thanx jeffwaddell 12:59
jeffwaddellcbx33, you got how to convert or ?12:59
cbx33yes01:00
cbx33GIMP01:00
jeffwaddellcbx33 you could just use xwud to display the image and use imagemagick as per usual01:01
cbx33GIMP works fine with the xwd01:01
cbx33thanks for that jeffwaddell 01:01
jeffwaddellno problem01:02
SusanUgh, eyelids drooping... time to put the teakettle on.01:03
cbx33Susan: did you want me to add screen shots into your admin user section?01:03
jeffwaddellSusan, I know why my eyelids are dropping...why are yours?01:04

ograthe only CD we ship is the install CD for i38605:03

HedgeMagecbx33: I think I like "assembled" rather than "prepared" (referring to cookbook)... "prepared" sounds less... something05:08
HedgeMageOkay, tweaked a bit per suggestions... still thinking of a nice-sounding way to say "burn your own if you can, we don't have a ton to send out"05:11
HedgeMagefeel free to peak and give more feedback05:12
bimberiHedgeMage: if you add a space before each "*" they should come out as dot points (iirc)05:12
