| jjjjjjj | hmm, i did a sudo apt-get install edubuntu-desktop from xubuntu and I still have the xfce desktop. there are some added apps in the "start menu". | 01:49 |
| HedgeMage | jjjjjjj: you have to tell it that you want to start gnome by default if you want to see the edubuntu gnome theme | 01:49 |

| aaron|feldman | so edubuntu is ubuntu with ltsp added right? | 03:49 |
| jsgotangco | morning | 03:51 |
| jsgotangco | yes | 03:51 |
| jsgotangco | but we also added some educational applications | 03:52 |
| pitux | is possible install controlaula in edubuntu | 03:54 |
| pitux | or any similar software | 03:54 |
| aaron|feldman | ok | 03:54 |
| aaron|feldman | just curious | 03:54 |
| aaron|feldman | didn' | 03:54 |
| aaron|feldman | t | 03:54 |
| aaron|feldman | see any reference to ltsp on the edubuntu web site | 03:55 |
| aaron|feldman | using K12ltsp | 03:55 |
| jsgotangco | its actually a new type of ltsp with the help of the ltsp people (jim and scott) | 03:56 |
| aaron|feldman | and it was helpful to be able to tap into both the k12ltsp stuff and the ltsp stuff | 03:56 |
| aaron|feldman | but if I had started out with edubuntu I would have never known ltsp existed | 03:56 |
| aaron|feldman | at least at first | 03:56 |
| jsgotangco | pitux: it should work, but how integration goes, no idea yet, we did consider it before though, probably will again | 03:56 |
| aaron|feldman | is edubuntu ltsp 4.2? | 03:57 |
| aaron|feldman | was considering trying it out | 03:58 |
| === neurogeek [n=neurogee@201.211.8.204] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| jsgotangco | no this is not 4.2 nor 4.1 its entirely different | 03:59 |
| aaron|feldman | really, interesting | 04:00 |
| jsgotangco | http://wiki.ltsp.org/twiki/bin/view/Ltsp/MueKow | 04:00 |
| aaron|feldman | does this mean that ltsp in edubuntu has forked from ltsp | 04:02 |
| aaron|feldman | some of the 4.2 stuff sounds cool | 04:02 |
| aaron|feldman | local media etc | 04:02 |
| aaron|feldman | i looked at that wiki entry, they say something about if this MueKow works out it will likely turn into ltsp-5 | 04:05 |
| aaron|feldman | what I'm trying to figure out here is this: | 04:06 |
| aaron|feldman | i know that eventually k12ltsp will integrate whatever ltsp implements | 04:06 |
| aaron|feldman | is that true for edubuntu | 04:06 |
| jsgotangco | im pretty positive that will happen | 04:07 |
| jsgotangco | like local media, etc. | 04:07 |
| aaron|feldman | k, cool | 04:07 |
| jsgotangco | but with current edubuntu, its possible to install LTSP without even doing anything and it already works | 04:08 |
| jsgotangco | the most that you will do is actually edit dhcpd3.conf | 04:08 |
| === neurogeek [n=neurogee@201.211.8.204] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| aaron|feldman | as in I can use ltspconfig 4.2 and it will be fine? | 04:10 |
| aaron|feldman | then that is very cool | 04:10 |
| jsgotangco | hmmm i am not sure | 04:11 |
| jsgotangco | you better have to ask ogra or post to the list | 04:11 |

| blue-frog | basically they think that the only way to install is thru the livecd (which I recommend anyway as it is simpler ffor most ppl | 09:19 |
| HedgeMage | I don't trust the livecd installer yet... more a gut feeling than any logical reason, though. I have not heard of any major problems | 09:20 |

| greebo | also, I'm working on a research project looking at the use of FOSS in research and education, I've put up some really useful links to documents about FOSS in education that may be useful to you guys | 09:49 |

| cbx33 | greebo: did you check out the Using Edubuntu documentation | 09:49 |
| cbx33 | http://www.edubuntu.org/UsingEdubuntu | 09:50 |
| cbx33 | may be of some use | 09:50 |
| greebo | cbx33, thanks! | 09:50 |
| greebo | hmm, I might use a different cd artwork. Something with the kids on it | 09:50 |
| HedgeMage | greebo: cool | 09:51 |
| HedgeMage | greebo: if you do, please post to DIYmarketing for others to share | 09:51 |
| greebo | HedgeMage, sure :) | 09:54 |
| HedgeMage | thanks! | 09:54 |

| jsgotangco | i dont have it either but you could probbably ask silbs | 09:58 |

| jimjimovich2 | HedgeMage: Thanks! I just forgot what folder to copy it to | 10:04 |

| cbx33 | can't seem to see if the xinetd service is running | 10:08 |
| HedgeMage | cbx33: make sure you have it installed if you need it... the two I pointed to claim to be standalone identd's that won't require inetd... however, something more traditional/xinetd-reliant may work better | 10:09 |
| HedgeMage | I haven't run identd in AGES | 10:09 |

| greebo | it isn't anything special, plain and to the point :) | 10:31 |
| HedgeMage | cbx33: if I go ahead and apply for membership this coming meeting, will you be around to cheer me on? | 10:31 |
| HedgeMage | greebo: all you need is a launchpad registration... it's not restricted to certain people | 10:31 |
| HedgeMage | what's .psd anyhow? | 10:31 |
| cbx33 | HedgeMage: of course | 10:32 |
| HedgeMage | cbx33: yay :D | 10:32 |
| cbx33 | I'll be a HedgeMage advocate :D | 10:32 |
| greebo | HedgeMage, it can be opened in gimp, and has loads of layers. Not sure :) I just used a cd template given to me in that format | 10:32 |
| cbx33 | HedgeMage: it could be a firewall issue | 10:32 |
| cbx33 | port 113 not open | 10:32 |
| HedgeMage | greebo: ahh I was just wondering because I thought that might be a photoshop thingy and we try to avoid proprietary stuff | 10:33 |
| HedgeMage | greebo: lemmee look | 10:33 |
| HedgeMage | cbx33: yep, could be | 10:33 |
| greebo | erk, have to go, back in a while | 10:33 |
| HedgeMage | ok ttyl | 10:34 |
| === pygi will support HedgeMage to become a member ;) | ||
| HedgeMage | yep, psd is Photoshop | 10:34 |
| HedgeMage | pygi: Yay! thanks | 10:34 |
| HedgeMage | greebo: if you don't know how to convert to .xcf I can do it for you later if you remind me | 10:34 |
| greebo | nice that gimp just deals with it :) that rocks! | 10:35 |
| greebo | back in a bit | 10:35 |
| HedgeMage | :D | 10:36 |
| HedgeMage | pygi: oddly, my wheedling over wether or not to do it this meeting was decided by the fact that I need something to take my mind off of the jobs I've applied for and whether I'll get something good | 10:37 |
| pygi | HedgeMage, you have to support me as well :P | 10:37 |
| HedgeMage | pygi: hehe of course! | 10:38 |
| cbx33 | does any one have identd running on a server i can try to telnet to | 10:40 |
| HedgeMage | sorry, not here | 10:41 |
| cbx33 | ahhhh, could it be binding it to the eth0 interface | 10:44 |
| cbx33 | instead of the ppp0 interface ? | 10:45 |
| pygi | HedgeMage, you must do the paperwork :P | 10:46 |
| cbx33 | HedgeMage: yes, do you have a wiki page? | 10:46 |
| pygi | cbx33, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HedgeMage | 10:47 |
| HedgeMage | pygi: working on it as we speak | 10:47 |
| HedgeMage | I also need to get myself on the agenda | 10:48 |
| HedgeMage | I wasn't going to do this yet until I realized how much I'm obsessing over the job thing | 10:48 |
| HedgeMage | I need a replacement obsession :P | 10:49 |
| cbx33 | HedgeMage: it must be a firewall issue | 10:51 |
| cbx33 | it seems to be working | 10:51 |
| cbx33 | i tested locally | 10:51 |
| HedgeMage | cbx33: weird | 10:52 |
| cbx33 | unless it is binding it to eth0 as opposed to ppp0 | 10:52 |
| cbx33 | but i don;t know how I'd check that | 10:54 |
| HedgeMage | ifconfig | 10:55 |

| HedgeMage | cbx33: BearPerson said that if you're trying to connect via the lappy with a nick already in use ( cbx33 for example ) it greatly increases the chance of suffering that time out, so use a seperate nick for that connection and see if it helps | 11:12 |

| HedgeMage | ogra: really? I wouldn't have seen an apology coming. cool | 11:13 |
| ogra | no, its PM | 11:13 |
| ogra | and i wont bother the ML with that lengthy thing | 11:13 |

| === HedgeMage sidles up to highvoltage and tries to look membership-worthy, offering him a fan club button | ||
| cbx33 | HedgeMage: you have enough | 11:23 |
| pygi | HedgeMage, you can even drop me :P | 11:23 |
| cbx33 | I had less | 11:23 |
| ogra | cbx33, you cant have enough | 11:23 |
| HedgeMage | pygi: aww but I like you I want to keep you :P | 11:23 |
| pygi | ogra, he can always bring all people from all ubuntu channels ;) | 11:24 |
| HedgeMage | pygi: I'm a "she" :P | 11:24 |
| ogra | pygi, ! | 11:24 |
| pygi | HedgeMage, yes, I know :P | 11:25 |
| HedgeMage | :P | 11:25 |
| pygi | Just talking about someone "random" :) | 11:25 |
| pygi | ogra, any objections on that? :) | 11:25 |
| HedgeMage | pygi: ahh | 11:25 |
| ogra | pygi, feel free to crowd the channel | 11:25 |
| pygi | ogra, nah, just joking :) | 11:26 |
| pygi | HedgeMage, what? !! | 11:26 |
| RobinShepheard | Daft question, I am installing and running Edubuntu on a selection of different machines, is there a utility you use to dump a file with all the hardware details in? | 11:26 |
| HedgeMage | RobinShepheard: "lspci" from the command line has gobs of great info! | 11:27 |
| ogra | RobinShepheard, look in the device manager | 11:27 |
| RobinShepheard | I was thinking of something that can grab the entire data out of device manager and write it to, say a text file | 11:28 |
| HedgeMage | RobinShepheard: "lspci | cat textfilename" | 11:28 |
| HedgeMage | though I haven't played with the device manager much, don't know if it has stuff from proc and such too... | 11:29 |
| === cbx33 [n=c2df514b@209.152.164.93] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| RobinShepheard | lspci doesn list things like the motherboard chipset though | 11:29 |
| RobinShepheard | I was thinking that if there was a standard utility any install could dump the data out | 11:30 |
| RobinShepheard | it would make it very easy to collate info on what hardware works and what doesn | 11:30 |
| RobinShepheard | doh doesnt | 11:30 |
| === HedgeMage ponders | ||
| HedgeMage | RobinShepheard: you could do a dump of /var/log/messages (bootup info, stuff that's detected, etc) | 11:31 |
| HedgeMage | there's a ton in there, but it's easy to parse | 11:31 |
| HedgeMage | sorry, I'm so non-gui | 11:31 |
| RobinShepheard | ahh good point, didnt think of that. | 11:31 |
| HedgeMage | there's probably a graphical thing for that somewhere | 11:31 |
| RobinShepheard | dunno, I cant really say I am from the gui | 11:32 |
| === cbx33 ponders too | ||
| RobinShepheard | it is just I have access to about 10-15 different boxes, all with different hardware | 11:32 |
| HedgeMage | RobinShepheard: heh, good... some people are so scared of the command line... I'm just *used* to it | 11:33 |
| === HedgeMage is probably showing her age | ||
| RobinShepheard | I was just thinking I can create a catalogue of what I have here, as it may come in handy with testing any of the apps. | 11:33 |
| === HedgeMage nods | ||
| HedgeMage | definitely | 11:34 |
| RobinShepheard | HedgeMage: Cant say I am scared of the command line, but then the gui wasnt much use with redhat 5 | 11:34 |
| HedgeMage | /var/log/messages has all the info you need. | 11:34 |
| HedgeMage | RobinShepheard: heh, I started with slackware in early 1995 | 11:34 |
| RobinShepheard | around the same sort of time then | 11:34 |
| === HedgeMage nods | ||
| HedgeMage | I guess... can never keep track of redhat releases | 11:35 |
| HedgeMage | don't use it, though, so it's kind of moot for me | 11:35 |
| HedgeMage | gah! it's 2:35 am ! | 11:35 |
| === HedgeMage needs sleep | ||

| RobinShepheard | is there a wish list specifically for Edubuntu?? | 11:49 |
| HedgeMage | RobinShepheard: there's teacher recommended projects, that's about it | 11:49 |
| ogra | RobinShepheard, i'mm about to make a list with proposed specs today there is no wikipage specific for edubuntu yet for the summit | 11:51 |
| RobinShepheard | ahh ok, I was wondering if it may be possible to automatically include motif libs as standard. It maens it is very easy to install citrix client then. | 11:51 |
| RobinShepheard | I realise that it is a fairly specialised request but if means that the schools or offices can still have access to existing windows apps if they really must have them | 11:52 |
| ogra | well, thats a question of supportability, not about speccing it :) | 11:52 |
| ogra | if our security team approves it will depend on the security history of the specific package | 11:53 |
| RobinShepheard | ogra: fair point, ok I didnt know how it worked like that. | 11:53 |
| RobinShepheard | just thought that it removes one more hurdle to possible acceptability | 11:54 |
| ogra | we have a second criteria specific to edubuntu: "how small is it (and its dependencys)?" | 11:54 |
| RobinShepheard | 1 sec | 11:55 |
| crimsun | (do you need motif specifically or will lesstif2 suffice?) | 11:55 |
| ogra | since we run constantly out of diskspace on the CD | 11:55 |
| crimsun | (note that the former does have a security record /and/ is in multiverse) | 11:56 |
| ogra | thats what i was suspecting | 11:57 |
| RobinShepheard | will have to test again, but last time I tried, I was required to install libmotif3 | 11:57 |

| EmxBA | and i will open forum | 12:51 |
| cbx33 | anyone any ideas how I can get sound back? | 12:51 |
| cbx33 | ALSA isn;t finding my soundcard, yet it did in breezy | 12:51 |
| EmxBA | i've already reviewed Edubuntu 5.10 | 12:51 |
| EmxBA | :P | 12:51 |
| RobinShepheard | cbx33: what sound card is it?? | 12:51 |
| cbx33 | not sure | 12:52 |
| cbx33 | hang on | 12:52 |
| EmxBA | try alsaconf | 12:52 |
| EmxBA | maybe you need some extra modules | 12:52 |
| EmxBA | highvoltage, can you give me the link where i can add myself to edubuntu list of contributors | 12:53 |
| EmxBA | on launchpad.net | 12:53 |
| highvoltage | EmxBA: depends where you're contributing to, we have different teams | 12:54 |
| highvoltage | long-term contributors may also become edubuntu members. | 12:54 |
| EmxBA | i dunno | 12:54 |
| EmxBA | you've gave me some link yesterday | 12:54 |
| highvoltage | just a sec.... | 12:54 |
| highvoltage | it was this one: https://launchpad.net/people/edubuntu-advocacy | 12:54 |
| cbx33 | RobinShepheard: it's an Intel AC97 | 12:55 |
| EmxBA | you told that you are going to put a link to our site (skolarci) when it becomes translated to English | 12:55 |
| highvoltage | yep. | 12:55 |
| EmxBA | ok | 12:55 |
| EmxBA | we made a deal :D | 12:55 |
| highvoltage | i'm not quite sure where that would fit on our site right now, but we'll probably find a place for off-site stories about Edubuntu | 12:56 |

| === jsgotangco faints 4am his time | ||
| RobinShepheard | cbx33: I must say my upgrade had no probs on a dell latitude d600. Having said that I have done a full install several times since then | 01:07 |
| RobinShepheard | cbx: Daft question, can you see the device under device manager | 01:07 |
| highvoltage | EmxBA: approved | 01:07 |
| cbx33 | RobinShepheard: just checking | 01:08 |
| cbx33 | RobinShepheard: no it;'s not in there | 01:09 |
| cbx33 | but doing an lspci finds it | 01:09 |
| RobinShepheard | have you tried clicking on the ubuntu device database butt | 01:10 |
| RobinShepheard | doh button | 01:10 |
| cbx33 | that just submits to an online database doesn't it? | 01:11 |
| RobinShepheard | it goes through checks first, you can always cancel | 01:11 |
| RobinShepheard | first check on mine is soundcard | 01:12 |
| cbx33 | yeh, no sound | 01:12 |
| RobinShepheard | ok | 01:12 |

| cbx33 | hmmm | 01:14 |
| EmxBA | highvoltage: thanks for approving my candidation for edubuntu-advocacz team | 01:14 |
| EmxBA | but i am wondering | 01:14 |
| cbx33 | well i ran a dpkg-reconfigure on alsa-base | 01:14 |
| EmxBA | how to change informations about myself | 01:14 |
| EmxBA | karma | 01:14 |
| EmxBA | etc | 01:14 |

| cbx33 | I'm just gonna reboot | 01:14 |
| RobinShepheard | ok see you in a bit | 01:15 |
| cbx33 | ok I was wrong | 01:16 |
| cbx33 | it wasn't that | 01:16 |
| RobinShepheard | ahh well, worth a try | 01:17 |
| cbx33 | thing is AC97 is a common sound card | 01:17 |

| === Kozuch [n=jan@159.108.broadband5.iol.cz] has joined #edubuntu | ||
| cbx33 | yup it's in there | 01:23 |
| RobinShepheard | cbx33: one other thought, you dont have a key combination to disable sound do you?? | 01:23 |
| cbx33 | /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1f.5 | 01:24 |
| RobinShepheard | I know it is a daft questin but it is easy to overlook | 01:24 |
| cbx33 | I do | 01:24 |
| cbx33 | but it's not affecting it | 01:24 |
| cbx33 | I just tried using it...and it just comes up as if no sound card is installed | 01:24 |
| RobinShepheard | no offence ment but I sometimes miss things like that | 01:24 |
| cbx33 | no sure | 01:25 |
| cbx33 | but it's not working :( | 01:25 |
| cbx33 | the keys are acknowledged by linux but it won;t do anything | 01:25 |
| ogra | cbx33, wait for crimsun to wake up, he's an alsa guy | 01:26 |
| cbx33 | ahhh excellent | 01:26 |
| cbx33 | thanks ogra | 01:26 |
| ogra | does it load any snd- modules ? | 01:26 |
| RobinShepheard | I wonder if it is the symlinks in the sys directory but I dont really know. Sorry | 01:26 |
| cbx33 | ogra: it's loaded the whole shebang | 01:27 |
| ogra | ok, look with amixer if anything essential is muted | 01:27 |
| cbx33 | pcm pcm_oss timer page_alloc | 01:27 |
| ogra | snd-pcm and snd-pcm-oss i hope | 01:27 |
| cbx33 | amixer can't attach | 01:27 |
| ogra | else you run oss which is plainly wrong | 01:28 |
| EmxBA | see ya in few hours | 01:29 |
| EmxBA | i gotta go now | 01:29 |
| === EmxBA [n=knoppix@as58-ob1.dlp148.bih.net.ba] has left #edubuntu [] | ||
| RobinShepheard | what number do you get next to snd_pcm do you get if you run lsmod | grep -i snd_pcm | 01:30 |
| RobinShepheard | that is the second number in the line | 01:31 |
| cbx33 | 1 | 01:32 |
| RobinShepheard | here is my output | 01:33 |
| RobinShepheard | snd_pcm_oss 53664 0 | 01:33 |
| RobinShepheard | snd_mixer_oss 18688 1 snd_pcm_oss | 01:33 |

| RobinShepheard | snd_page_alloc 10632 2 snd_intel8x0,snd_pcm | 01:33 |
| cbx33 | yup | 01:33 |
| cbx33 | looks very similar | 01:33 |
| cbx33 | I just havn't got the AC97 codec | 01:33 |
| RobinShepheard | try modprobe snd_ac97_codec | 01:34 |
| RobinShepheard | then check | 01:34 |
| cbx33 | ok | 01:34 |
| cbx33 | done that | 01:34 |
| cbx33 | now I get a differenmt mseeage | 01:34 |
| cbx33 | about gstreamer plugins | 01:34 |
| RobinShepheard | is the device now visible in device manager?? | 01:34 |
| cbx33 | just checking | 01:35 |
| cbx33 | nope | 01:35 |
| RobinShepheard | what about if you try going into the mixer?? | 01:36 |
| cbx33 | ok | 01:36 |
| cbx33 | I may have it now | 01:36 |
| cbx33 | I added the intel module too | 01:37 |
| cbx33 | but all volumes are set to zero | 01:37 |
| cbx33 | and I can't change them | 01:37 |
| cbx33 | ok, I have unmuted all devices | 01:38 |
| cbx33 | but it;s still not working | 01:38 |
| cbx33 | no sound | 01:38 |
| RobinShepheard | I would guess it is a case of it is not loading a critical module, but I must confess that I dont have a huge amount of experience with this | 01:39 |

| cbx33 | hmmm | 01:41 |
| cbx33 | not sure | 01:41 |
| cbx33 | I'll check in 2 secs | 01:41 |
| RobinShepheard | no probs | 01:41 |
| ogra | everybody: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EdubuntuEdgyIdeas | 01:42 |
| ogra | please add ideas at the bottom | 01:42 |
| cbx33 | mmm | 01:43 |
| cbx33 | module snd_ac97_bus doesn't exist | 01:43 |
| cbx33 | apparently | 01:43 |
| RobinShepheard | and is you do modprobe snd_ac97_bus?? | 01:51 |
| RobinShepheard | doh if even | 01:51 |
| cbx33 | yes | 01:51 |
| cbx33 | FATAL: Module snd_ac97_bus not found | 01:52 |
| RobinShepheard | hmmm cant say I have ever built modules for ubuntu | 01:55 |
| cbx33 | I'll see if crimsun has any ideas | 01:55 |
| cbx33 | thank you RobinShepheard | 01:55 |
| RobinShepheard | ok, sorry I cant be more help | 01:55 |
| cbx33 | RobinShepheard: no, thank you for all your help | 01:56 |
| RobinShepheard | no problem | 01:56 |
| RobinShepheard | I would guess you may have to download kernel source and headers and do a make modules_install, or at least I think that is what the command is | 01:57 |
| cbx33 | yeh | 01:57 |
| RobinShepheard | when you do sort it out, could you please drop me an email on robin.shepheard@swisp.co.uk and let me know what the cure was | 01:58 |
| cbx33 | yeh sure | 01:59 |
| RobinShepheard | cheers | 01:59 |
| cbx33 | is ther ean easy way to upgrade my kernel on ubuntu>? | 01:59 |
| cbx33 | like an apt-get | 01:59 |
| RobinShepheard | good question, mine was last updated as part of the automatic updates | 02:00 |
| RobinShepheard | dunno about any other way to be honest | 02:00 |
| cbx33 | yeh | 02:00 |
| cbx33 | but mine shows no update available | 02:00 |
| cbx33 | even when I know there is | 02:01 |
| RobinShepheard | which kernel are you running?? | 02:01 |
| cbx33 | 2.6.12 | 02:01 |
| cbx33 | -9 | 02:02 |
| RobinShepheard | if you do apt-cache search linux-image-2.6 it will list all the kernel images you can install, pick the right one and then do apt-get I would guess | 02:03 |
| RobinShepheard | eg apt-get install linux-image-2.6.15-23-686 | 02:04 |
| cbx33 | doing | 02:04 |
| jsgotangco | cbx33: check your sources.list if updates are enabled | 02:06 |

| highvoltage | laptops++ | 02:13 |
| cbx33 | phew I was getting worried there guys | 02:13 |
| cbx33 | RobinShepheard: kernel upgrade fixed it | 02:13 |
| jsgotangco | the last time i worried about sound was during the late 90s | 02:13 |
| cbx33 | well for some reason the kernel upgrade didn;t happen | 02:14 |
| jsgotangco | well thats what we love most about software | 02:14 |
| RobinShepheard | I reckon I end up swearing at my laptop as much as swearing by it | 02:15 |
| RobinShepheard | cbx33: good to hear it is all working now | 02:15 |
| cbx33 | ogra, made a suggestion on the wiki | 02:23 |
| cbx33 | what are your thoughts? | 02:23 |
| cbx33 | the bottom one | 02:23 |
| ogra | cbx33, sounds good, but not like an edubuntu spec | 02:25 |
| ogra | (rather suited for ubuntu) | 02:25 |
| jsgotangco | ogra: is it normal that sound is still done in the server? | 02:26 |
| cbx33 | even the teaching instructional one? | 02:26 |
| jsgotangco | (i just noticed it in my machines just now) | 02:26 |
| ogra | jsgotangco, you need to enable it in lts.conf | 02:26 |
| jsgotangco | ogra: right thanks | 02:26 |
| cbx33 | I thought that was right up edubuntu street ? | 02:27 |
| ogra | cbx33, look at byzanz | 02:27 |
| ogra | we already have a screen recording app | 02:27 |
| jsgotangco | even istanbul is ok if not needing some more work | 02:28 |
| ogra | and istanbul was on my initial applist | 02:28 |
| jsgotangco | yeah but byzanz came like midway of the cycle heh | 02:28 |
| ogra | byzanz is smaller and produces animated gifs you can just drop on a website without needing a viewer | 02:29 |
| jsgotangco | yeah | 02:29 |
| cbx33 | Ability for pupils to ask questions of a teacher, in an online fashion, or click on a "I need help" button | 02:30 |
| ogra | jebber server by default you mean ? | 02:30 |
| cbx33 | yes | 02:30 |
| ogra | *jabber | 02:30 |
| cbx33 | something like that | 02:31 |
| jsgotangco | that's also a good thing to add in Amenity | 02:31 |
| cbx33 | Common whiteboards to allow pupils to take part in interactive sessions, displayed on a projector | 02:32 |
| ogra | phew | 02:33 |
| cbx33 | ogra: want my brain to stop? | 02:33 |
| ogra | do you think such a thing is doable in 4 months ? | 02:33 |
| === cbx33 thinks............ | ||
| cbx33 | ok ...probably not | 02:33 |
| ogra | no but stay realistic :) unless i find 10 devs to help me ... | 02:33 |
| cbx33 | ogra: feel free to delete the suggestions you don;t think are realistic | 02:34 |
| ogra | no, thats a proposal page ... i wont delete anything | 02:34 |

| EmxBA | hi again | 02:34 |
| cbx33 | ogra: I'll remove them then, because yo uare right | 02:34 |
| EmxBA | i have told you that i will come back :D | 02:34 |
| ogra | and having proposals like the above is great but will need more manpower or several releases | 02:34 |
| cbx33 | some are just silly big for edgy | 02:35 |
| cbx33 | ok | 02:35 |
| ogra | so its good to leave it there as idea | 02:35 |
| cbx33 | I think SCP could turn massive | 02:35 |
| cbx33 | with so many features | 02:35 |
| ogra | but tag it as "not doable in one release" or something alongside | 02:35 |
| ogra | yeah | 02:35 |
| ogra | edgy might be the release for scp and ltsp manager :) | 02:36 |
| jsgotangco | cbx33: do you mean those huge writeboards? | 02:36 |
| ogra | i'd love to focus more on GUI stuff this time | 02:36 |
| jsgotangco | they're very much driver oriented | 02:36 |
| cbx33 | jsgotangco: no | 02:36 |
| cbx33 | basically the host/teacher would have a whiteboard | 02:36 |
| jsgotangco | or do you mean a common virtual writeboard | 02:36 |
| cbx33 | yes | 02:36 |
| cbx33 | which is then displayed on a big screen | 02:37 |
| cbx33 | ogra: what kind of GUI things did you have in mind | 02:37 |
| ogra | jsgotangco, what a suggestion ! you know we're PXE fashists ! | 02:37 |
| jsgotangco | heh! | 02:38 |
| cbx33 | heheh | 02:38 |
| RobinShepheard | sorry to interrupt, where would I find the download for the testing version or is that yet to come. Yes I do realise that you have just done a new release | 02:38 |
| jsgotangco | i did that on purpose | 02:38 |
| ogra | cbx33, mainly finishing scp and ltsp-amanger | 02:38 |
| cbx33 | ogra: ok cool | 02:38 |
| jsgotangco | RobinShepheard: we haven't even started Edgy =) | 02:38 |
| cbx33 | ogra: I'll see what I can do to help out on ltsp-manager | 02:38 |
| ogra | RobinShepheard, the edgy archive hasnt even opened :) | 02:38 |
| cbx33 | and scp | 02:38 |
| jsgotangco | RobinShepheard: we'll probably have a milestone disc in a month | 02:39 |
| RobinShepheard | i did think that may be the case, but as I am new to the team I thought I had better check | 02:39 |
| ogra | cbx33, i thought you already jump on s-c-p | 02:39 |
| cbx33 | yes | 02:39 |
| ogra | stay with that then :) | 02:39 |
| ogra | its enough work for one | 02:39 |
| cbx33 | ok | 02:39 |
| RobinShepheard | scp ... as in ssh type scp??? | 02:39 |
| cbx33 | who's project managing scp | 02:39 |
| ogra | student-control-panel | 02:39 |
| ogra | me | 02:39 |
| cbx33 | thought so | 02:39 |
| RobinShepheard | ahh, I did think i must be something else | 02:40 |
| ogra | but i'll happily hand over to a MOTU (hint hint) | 02:40 |
| cbx33 | hehe | 02:40 |
| cbx33 | awww shucks that's not me yet | 02:40 |
| RobinShepheard | what have you got to do with the scp?? | 02:40 |
| RobinShepheard | is it actually coding work?? | 02:40 |
| ogra | managing students :) | 02:40 |
| cbx33 | yes | 02:40 |
| jsgotangco | he just signed his death warrant | 02:41 |
| RobinShepheard | lol very funny | 02:41 |
| RobinShepheard | ok cant really help then unfortunately | 02:41 |
| cbx33 | of coruse you can | 02:41 |
| RobinShepheard | I am not a coder | 02:41 |
| cbx33 | testing :D | 02:41 |
| ogra | yep, its coding work but also requires decent packaging knowledge (you need to make changes to other packages that are used by s-c-p (like x11vnc)) | 02:41 |
| RobinShepheard | yeah well i had figured on the testing part | 02:41 |
| cbx33 | hehe | 02:41 |
| RobinShepheard | well beyond my league then | 02:42 |
| RobinShepheard | what language do you use?? | 02:42 |
| ogra | but indeed like every new software it will need lots of testing etc :) | 02:42 |
| ogra | python | 02:42 |
| ogra | with glade guis | 02:42 |
| jsgotangco | dinner brb | 02:42 |
| RobinShepheard | ok | 02:42 |
| === cbx33 sighs | ||
| cbx33 | ahhhh python and glade....I love that combination | 02:43 |
| RobinShepheard | how difficult is python to learn?? I have not really had a chance to look as yet | 02:44 |
| cbx33 | RobinShepheard: it's pretty easy | 02:44 |
| cbx33 | I've been using it for about 2 weeks | 02:44 |
| cbx33 | and I'm writing gui apps | 02:44 |
| cbx33 | the documentation is excellent | 02:44 |
| cbx33 | IMHO | 02:44 |
| EmxBA | why there is no edubuntu on list of available distros to translate | 02:45 |
| RobinShepheard | would it be worth my while trying to learn it then?? Could I be fairly useful in a fairly short time period? | 02:45 |
| EmxBA | on launchpad.net | 02:45 |
| ogra | because we use ubuntu packages :) edubuntu is built *inside* of ubuntu | 02:45 |
| cbx33 | RobinShepheard: as I said I've been learning for a 1 week | 02:45 |
| cbx33 | sorry 2 weeks | 02:45 |
| cbx33 | and I'm hopingto be able to help out on scp | 02:46 |
| ogra | RobinShepheard, pythin is easy to learn | 02:46 |
| ogra | *python too | 02:46 |
| cbx33 | learn it | 02:46 |
| cbx33 | ogra: I've never used pythin ! | 02:46 |
| RobinShepheard | ahhh remember you are talking to someone with no education worth speaking about | 02:46 |
| cbx33 | what about pythick | 02:46 |
| ogra | or pyknic :) | 02:46 |
| cbx33 | RobinShepheard: do you have any other programming experience? | 02:46 |
| RobinShepheard | not proper programming as such, just a bit or perl | 02:47 |
| cbx33 | pork pyes? | 02:47 |
| cbx33 | RobinShepheard: as long as you understand that basics you should be fine | 02:47 |
| ogra | for the pyknic ? sure ! | 02:47 |
| cbx33 | take look at python.org | 02:47 |
| RobinShepheard | no thanks I have just had lunch | 02:47 |
| cbx33 | and check out their documentation section | 02:47 |
| cbx33 | I'll give ya any pointers where I can | 02:47 |
| cbx33 | but bear in mind I'm no expert | 02:47 |
| RobinShepheard | I subscribe to the safari bookshelf from oreilly, they have the python books on there | 02:48 |
| cbx33 | indeed | 02:48 |
| RobinShepheard | cheers for the offer of help cbx33 | 02:48 |
| cbx33 | np | 02:48 |
| RobinShepheard | I may well take you up on that | 02:48 |
| cbx33 | that's what we're ll here for | 02:48 |
| cbx33 | well if you want a small app to disect, that is in development. | 02:48 |
| cbx33 | gISOMount is my first python application | 02:48 |
| cbx33 | launchpad.net/products/gisomount/ | 02:49 |
| RobinShepheard | yeah, I spotted it on your webpage | 02:49 |
| cbx33 | :D | 02:49 |
| cbx33 | pygi is another python coder with a lot more experience than I, as is ogra | 02:50 |
| cbx33 | any others I've missed? | 02:50 |
| cbx33 | notice they'll all stay quiet now so they don;t get bugged with questions :p | 02:50 |
| RobinShepheard | ok, how do I obtain the source to look at it?? | 02:50 |
| RobinShepheard | lol | 02:50 |
| cbx33 | goto http://www.progbox.co.uk/gisomount | 02:50 |
| cbx33 | there are only 3 files you need | 02:51 |
| cbx33 | gisomount | 02:51 |
| cbx33 | gismount.glade | 02:51 |
| cbx33 | and for asthetics cdicon.png | 02:51 |
| EmxBA | hey | 02:51 |
| RobinShepheard | ok on my way now | 02:51 |
| cbx33 | then just make sure that you chmod 755 for gisomount | 02:51 |
| EmxBA | does anyone know a good site to resize images on 16x16 | 02:51 |
| cbx33 | and try running it | 02:51 |
| ogra | has anybody any further ides for CD size reduction ? | 02:54 |
| ogra | *ideas | 02:54 |
| jsgotangco | ogra: evolution | 02:54 |
| cbx33 | well the ideas you have are great ogra | 02:54 |
| cbx33 | removing kdeedu would be good | 02:54 |
| ogra | i want to put it in a megred spec | 02:54 |
| ogra | that lists all possibilitys | 02:54 |
| ogra | jsgotangco, replaced with what ? | 02:55 |
| jsgotangco | we could also remove some of the audio apps | 02:55 |
| jsgotangco | ogra: i cannot see the use of a groupware/email client in a lab... | 02:55 |
| jsgotangco | since most kids nowadays are webmail users | 02:56 |
| cbx33 | hmmm | 02:56 |
| ogra | that'd work if we'd offer a webmail server | 02:56 |
| cbx33 | I think there would probably be a need for some mail client | 02:56 |
| ogra | but we dont yet | 02:56 |
| cbx33 | ok, I'm after opinions here | 02:56 |
| cbx33 | please shout at me if you think I'm wrong | 02:57 |
| jsgotangco | xubuntu used thunderbird | 02:57 |
| ogra | that will bring in huge langpacks | 02:57 |
| jsgotangco | but if there is enough to warrant a main inclusion or even another gecko/mozilla in the fray, there | 02:57 |
| ogra | i'm happy we got rid of TB in breezy | 02:57 |
| jsgotangco | there's seamonkey | 02:57 |
| cbx33 | I just feel that we should be making sure edubuntu and probably ubuntu in the wider community, so that it can sit in a windows network and flourish | 02:57 |
| jsgotangco | cbx33: it connects to a samba network? | 02:58 |
| RobinShepheard | cbx33: slick, and looks a fairly simple language | 02:58 |
| cbx33 | in education esp, to move from windows to edubuntu takes a long long time | 02:58 |
| cbx33 | the curriculum has to be rewritten in a lot of cases | 02:59 |
| jsgotangco | cbx33: well that's just one side..there's the other side using apple networks :P | 02:59 |
| ogra | probably we should have a look at balsa, it used to be the default client before evo in gnome | 02:59 |
| cbx33 | jsgotangco: true | 02:59 |
| jsgotangco | ogra: i forgot about balsa.. | 02:59 |
| cbx33 | and that'd be great as well | 02:59 |
| ogra | its in universe though ... not sure what it takes to get it to main | 02:59 |
| jsgotangco | is it still actively maintained? | 02:59 |
| === jsgotangco checks | ||
| cbx33 | but majority of school networks are windows based | 03:00 |
| RobinShepheard | balsa is light and quick | 03:00 |
| ogra | but is it feature complete ? | 03:00 |
| ogra | i.e. can it do tls encrypted imap ? | 03:00 |
| RobinShepheard | good point | 03:00 |
| RobinShepheard | havent used it in a longtime | 03:00 |
| === cbx33 installs balsa | ||
| jsgotangco | hmmm | 03:01 |
| jsgotangco | it suggests gnome-pim | 03:01 |
| jsgotangco | and gpgsm | 03:01 |
| cbx33 | for a start | 03:01 |
| cbx33 | tehre's no icon | 03:01 |

| jsgotangco | try refreshing your session | 03:02 |
| cbx33 | it has ssl | 03:02 |
| RobinShepheard | does install to the menu though | 03:02 |
| cbx33 | not that I can see.... | 03:02 |
| jsgotangco | sure from a bunch of universe apps | 03:02 |
| cbx33 | I'll refresh in a minute | 03:02 |
| RobinShepheard | I am popping out for a bit of fresh air, be back in a short while | 03:03 |
| cbx33 | hmmm | 03:04 |
| RobinShepheard | see you all in a bit | 03:04 |
| cbx33 | but it crashed on message 313 | 03:04 |

| jsgotangco | dont be so hard on your ideas | 03:45 |
| jsgotangco | after all in a summit almost half of topics never come to be realized at all | 03:45 |
| jsgotangco | hmmm | 03:48 |
| jsgotangco | i just realized something | 03:48 |
| jsgotangco | supertux isnt even educational | 03:48 |
| jsgotangco | heh | 03:48 |
| ogra | didnt you learn anything while playing it ? | 03:50 |
| cbx33 | jsgotangco: I'm just being realistic ;P | 03:51 |
| jsgotangco | ogra: i learned how to shoot fireballs to walking snowballs though | 03:51 |
| ogra | cbx33, if you want it done eventually its helpful if a spec exists | 03:52 |
| ogra | jsgotangco, you see :) | 03:52 |
| cbx33 | I have a spec for atleast one of those :p | 03:52 |

| RobinShepheard | greetings aon and all | 04:31 |
| RobinShepheard | *one even | 04:31 |
| cbx33 | which package is the gnome applet for network monitoring in | 04:38 |
| cbx33 | I have just found a bug | 04:39 |
| RobinShepheard | cbx33: do you mean the panel applet??? | 04:42 |
| RobinShepheard | netmon-applet | 04:43 |
| ogra | netmon-applet is a universe package | 04:43 |
| ogra | unlikely he means that ... try gnome-applets | 04:44 |
| cbx33 | hmm...am looking at the source now | 04:45 |
| RobinShepheard | I sort of get lost as I use my laptop all over the place I find it useful to have NetworkManager, kismet and others and so I have to have universe and multiverse | 04:45 |
| RobinShepheard | are all the applets written in python? | 04:46 |
| cbx33 | hmmm it's not in there | 04:46 |
| cbx33 | as far as i can see | 04:46 |
| ogra | ogra@edubuntu:~/Desktop/gnome-screensaver-2.14.2$ apt-cache show gnome-netstatus-applet|grep Source | 04:47 |
| ogra | Source: gnome-netstatus | 04:47 |
| ogra | yep... | 04:47 |
| cbx33 | ok got it | 04:50 |
| jsgotangco | stupid bzr question but how do i start something when i dont even have a url to branch with? | 04:51 |
| ogra | you mean creating a new project from your current dir ? | 04:51 |
| jsgotangco | yeah | 04:52 |
| ogra | bzr init | 04:52 |
| ogra | bzr add * | 04:52 |
| jsgotangco | doh! | 04:52 |
| ogra | bzr commit -M'I DID IT !' | 04:52 |
| ogra | err -m | 04:52 |
| ogra | bzr viz | 04:52 |
| ogra | :) | 04:52 |
| ogra | in case you have bzrk installed | 04:52 |
| cbx33 | bzrk? | 04:53 |
| jsgotangco | yeah i have bzrk | 04:53 |
| RobinShepheard | if I want to look at the source for something, how do I go about getting it, eg gnome-netstatus and where would I find it | 04:55 |
| RobinShepheard | I have just run apt-get source gnome-netstatus | 04:56 |
| RobinShepheard | and now I am wondering where the source files are | 04:56 |
| cbx33 | that will cerate a dir | 04:56 |
| cbx33 | look in the folder you just ran that in | 04:56 |
| cbx33 | for gnome-netstatus-1.4.6 blah blah | 04:56 |
| cbx33 | 2.12.0 i think | 04:57 |
| RobinShepheard | ahh, I was looking for it in usr/src and places like that. It was to easy to consider it would put it in the current dir for my basic intelligence | 04:57 |
| cbx33 | ;p | 04:57 |
| cbx33 | that's why apt-get source can be run w/o root privs | 04:58 |
| RobinShepheard | got you | 04:58 |
| RobinShepheard | doh and it is written in c, I was hoping I could look at it for reference for python | 04:59 |
| cbx33 | i know | 04:59 |
| cbx33 | me too | 04:59 |
| cbx33 | bbl guys | 04:59 |

| highvoltage | hey LaserJock and bddebian | 06:50 |
| LaserJock | umm, yeah | 06:50 |
| bddebian | cbx33: Nah, that was supposed to be BddebianIsADog but Stephen is obviously dyslexic :-) | 06:50 |
| bddebian | Heya highvoltage | 06:50 |

| cbx33 | highvoltage, what blueprint docs is it you're reading ? | 06:53 |
| LaserJock | bddebian: rofl | 06:55 |
| ogra | guys, dont miss https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EdubuntuEdgyIdeas | 06:55 |
| === cbx33 didn't :p | ||
| cbx33 | I have some more to put on there later ogra | 06:56 |
| LaserJock | ogra: oh, awesome | 06:56 |
| ogra | i mean the guys that werent here in the european morning ;) | 06:56 |
| cbx33 | heheh | 06:56 |
| ogra | if you grab a spec to work on in paris or add a spec, please write an initial draft on launchpad | 06:57 |
| ogra | (i'll care for the ltsp ones for now) | 06:57 |
| lucasvo | crap | 06:57 |
| ogra | needs to be done until monday | 06:57 |
| lucasvo | I just broke my router | 06:57 |
| cbx33 | you mean we have till monday? | 06:57 |
| ogra | whats not on launchpad by monday 00:00 UTC will be dropped | 06:57 |
| cbx33 | eeek | 06:57 |
| cbx33 | ok | 06:57 |
| bddebian | ogra: The localApps link is broken :-) | 06:57 |
| ogra | bddebian, i didnt add it ... | 06:58 |
| LaserJock | what? really? | 06:58 |
| bddebian | Ah, OK | 06:58 |
| cbx33 | sorry was me | 06:59 |
| cbx33 | I need to put my activedirectory integration on as a spec | 06:59 |
| cbx33 | i have it already written, but as you say ogra its really an ubuntu thing.... | 06:59 |
| cbx33 | though I think they will not be keen to do it as we are | 06:59 |
| cbx33 | gtg - food | 06:59 |
| bddebian | Laterz | 06:59 |
| LaserJock | ogra: argg, ok we need to put all our idea on that wiki page and then make specs? all by Monday? | 07:00 |
| ogra | heh | 07:00 |
| ogra | yes | 07:00 |
| ogra | but the spec can be a very rough draft, really | 07:01 |
| LaserJock | hmm, I feel so dumb right now. | 07:01 |
| ogra | what about the menu stuff ? | 07:02 |
| LaserJock | yeah | 07:02 |
| highvoltage | cbx33: https://wiki.launchpad.canonical.com/BlueprintDocumentation | 07:02 |
| LaserJock | I think I'm mostly interested in the menu stuff and discipline meta-packs for Universe | 07:02 |
| ogra | it'd be great if you could flesh out the menu stuff a bit ... the universe packages wont need a spec, we can just build them :) | 07:03 |
| LaserJock | k | 07:03 |
| LaserJock | what about themeing between the different "flavors" of Edubuntu, kids, students, unis sort of idea? | 07:04 |
| ogra | we just need to enhance current edubuntu-artwork functionallity | 07:05 |
| ogra | that will enable us to make menu options for different flavors in the CD installmenu | 07:06 |
| highvoltage | ogra: will you be around this weekend? | 07:07 |
| ogra | highvoltage, probably | 07:07 |
| ogra | cant promise because we need to prepare some stuff for moving | 07:08 |
| highvoltage | ogra: may i send you links to specs i'm going to work on the following days, can i send you links to them for suggestions and improvements? | 07:08 |
| ogra | sure | 07:08 |
| highvoltage | i could e-mail it to you too, then you could read it next week, if you don't mind. | 07:08 |
| highvoltage | i just read through the specification docs, and it seems like a big job to write a decent spec. | 07:09 |
| ogra | well, we need to be done by monday with a set of braindump versions | 07:09 |

| ogra | only an initial draft roughly explaining what it should solve | 07:09 |
| ogra | not more | 07:09 |
| highvoltage | ok | 07:09 |
| highvoltage | and that should also go into https://launchpad.net/specs so long? | 07:10 |
| highvoltage | or a wiki page? | 07:10 |

| ogra | see 3 aqnd 4 | 07:11 |
| ogra | *and | 07:12 |
| highvoltage | great. thanks. | 07:13 |
| highvoltage | ogra, have i told you about tuxlabs going solo? | 07:13 |
| LaserJock | umm, a question I had, if I write a spec does that mean I have to implement it? | 07:13 |
| highvoltage | LaserJock: no, you don't. | 07:13 |
| ogra | highvoltage, yes, when is day X ? | 07:14 |
| highvoltage | LaserJock: https://wiki.launchpad.canonical.com/WritingGoodSpecifications | 07:14 |
| ogra | LaserJock, a spec should be written in a way bddebian can implement in the end | 07:14 |
| highvoltage | LaserJock: under the section "Getting outside expertise" | 07:14 |
| pygi | bddebian, what are you implementing? | 07:14 |
| LaserJock | ogra: excelent | 07:14 |
| ogra | :) | 07:14 |
| highvoltage | ogra: it seems very likely that it's happening within the next 30 days | 07:14 |
| ogra | nice | 07:15 |
| highvoltage | ogra: what's great is, today i negotiated that i won't be a full time employee, instead, i'll go on a retainer | 07:15 |
| highvoltage | which means that i can work in my own time on the work i need to do. | 07:15 |
| highvoltage | which in turn means, i'll have much more daytime hours to work on edubuntu :) | 07:15 |
| ogra | cool | 07:15 |
| LaserJock | arrrggg, I can't think of anything cool right now for Edubuntu. | 07:17 |
| pygi | ogra, should I also file a spec on ubuntu product for s-c-p or? | 07:18 |
| highvoltage | LaserJock: put a kid in front of the computer, ideas will start coming to you :) | 07:18 |
| LaserJock | more apps in less space :-) | 07:18 |
| LaserJock | highvoltage: unfortunately, I'm the only kid I know ;-) | 07:18 |
| ogra | LaserJock, there are already plenty of ideas on the wiki, just grab one, no need to add more if you dont have an idea right now | 07:19 |
| LaserJock | ogra: ok, I'll try to tackle the menu profiles, if that's ok with everybody else | 07:20 |
| ogra | sure :D | 07:20 |
| pips1 | just had a quick glance through EdubuntuEdgyIdeas and there is a *lot* there already | 07:20 |
| ogra | yeps | 07:21 |
| ogra | we wont be able to do all of it anyway | 07:21 |
| LaserJock | another thing I was wondering is if we should prefix Edubuntu specs with edubuntu- | 07:21 |
| ogra | hmm, good question | 07:21 |
| ogra | mdz, should we prefix edubuntu specs or tag them anyhow ? | 07:21 |
| LaserJock | I'm having a hard time wading through all the specs | 07:22 |
| ogra | yeah there is a lot (and a lot of crap that someone should clean up) | 07:22 |
| mdz | ogra: why? | 07:22 |
| pygi | I shall take care of it | 07:22 |
| pygi | Enhance the student-control-panel (make it feature complete with the initially planned fetures) | 07:22 |
| ogra | mdz, well, the menu spec is very edubuntu specific for example | 07:22 |
| ogra | hmm, actually i think thats the only one that only affects edubuntu from EdubuntuEdgyIdeas | 07:23 |
| LaserJock | not the CD ones? | 07:24 |
| bddebian | pygi: ? | 07:24 |
| ogra | the "CD ones" will be merged to a single (minimize CD) one | 07:24 |
| LaserJock | k | 07:24 |
| pygi | bddebian, nothin' ;) | 07:25 |
| ogra | the list there is only for suggestions what to drop or to change to get it smaller | 07:25 |
| bddebian | Oh, I missed that. What AM I implementing?? :-) | 07:26 |
| LaserJock | all the Edgy specs | 07:26 |
| bddebian | Oh, sweetness :-) | 07:27 |
| mdz | ogra: name them as you like, but there is no way to filter presently | 07:27 |
| ogra | yep, ok | 07:27 |
| LaserJock | well, they are alphabetically listed, no? | 07:28 |
| cbx33 | phew I'm a back | 07:30 |
| cbx33 | yum yum | 07:31 |
| LaserJock | ogra: ok, so the idea is to have menu profiles that correlate with the theme (young, plain, etc.) through edubuntu-artwork? | 07:32 |
| cbx33 | ogra, thanks for showing me bzrk | 07:32 |
| lucasvo | bah, british food is supposed to be good?? | 07:32 |
| lucasvo | ;) | 07:32 |
| === cbx33 had pizza just now | ||
| ogra | LaserJock, nope, the idea was rather to bind menu profiles to group assignment ... | 07:32 |
| LaserJock | ok, but I'm struggling as to what the group assignment would be | 07:33 |
| lucasvo | cbx33: ah, yes. italian food is good | 07:33 |
| ogra | LaserJock, you have a chemistry group, if you add the user to it, gnome-emnus detects that and adds the appropriate items | 07:33 |
| cbx33 | ogra, sounds good | 07:33 |
| ogra | so syou only have to add users to the appropriate group | 07:33 |
| LaserJock | ogra: ok, so these are predefined groups? | 07:33 |
| ogra | (note that is a draft, it might change into a compeltely different implementation during the summit) | 07:33 |
| cbx33 | there would be the facility to add new ones? | 07:33 |
| LaserJock | and then an administrator (or somebody) assigns the user to a set of groups? | 07:34 |
| ogra | yes | 07:34 |
| ogra | and yes | 07:34 |
| LaserJock | k | 07:34 |
| ogra | indeed, if you want to bind it to the theme, do that, write it as you like, as i said, it can change 180 during the discussion | 07:35 |

| cbx33 | hi RobinShepheard | 08:47 |
| RobinShepheard | cbx33: hiya | 08:48 |
| LaserJock | RobinShepheard! | 08:48 |
| RobinShepheard | LaserJock how are you?? | 08:48 |
| LaserJock | good, busy, but good | 08:48 |
| LaserJock | and you? | 08:49 |
| cbx33 | bbiaw guys | 08:49 |
| cbx33 | thanks LaserJock | 08:49 |
| RobinShepheard | lol I know that one, work kept interupting my chats here earlier :) | 08:49 |
| cbx33 | I'll see you in a while | 08:49 |
| RobinShepheard | see you later cbx22 | 08:49 |

| cbx33 | heheh | 08:49 |
| cbx33 | not using tab completion? :p | 08:49 |
| HedgeMage | see ya cbx33 | 08:50 |
| RobinShepheard | HedgeMage: What time is it where you are now? | 08:51 |
| LaserJock | almost noon | 08:51 |
| RobinShepheard | ahhh wondered as it wasn't that long ago I remember her saying she was heading for bed :) | 08:52 |
| RobinShepheard | Has anyone started some sort of database of hardware that people have for testing on?? | 08:53 |
| ogra | RobinShepheard, hwdb.ubuntu.com has plenty of datasets, just no database backend to make more use out of the data | 08:54 |
| HedgeMage | it was suggested on the dev list, but I don't know if it's been done | 08:55 |
| ogra | hwdb needs a lot of enhancements and bugfixes ... it also needs a split of front and backend code since the kde guys want to start using it too | 08:55 |
| === HedgeMage goes and looks at hwdb | ||
| LaserJock | was there a SoC project about that? | 08:56 |
| ogra | nope | 08:56 |
| LaserJock | hmm, must have been just that -devel thread I was thinking about | 08:57 |
| ogra | but its on mdz's list for paris specs | 08:57 |
| LaserJock | oh maybe that's it | 08:57 |
| highvoltage | ogra: usergroup driven profiles are so that regular users won't see admin menus, and so that you can have customised menu sets for (as an example), primary school, high school and university users? | 08:58 |
| HedgeMage | Hmm... it seems to just be procs, memory, etc... no info on sound cards and peripherals that are working, etc. | 08:58 |
| LaserJock | highvoltage: I think that coule be a possibility but also the use case I've got on https://wiki.edubuntu.org/EdubuntuDynamicMenus | 08:59 |
| highvoltage | LaserJock: thanks for that | 08:59 |
| === highvoltage reads | ||
| LaserJock | hehe, not much to read yet | 08:59 |
| highvoltage | cool, i'm just going to link to that spec from EdubuntuEdgyIdeas | 09:01 |
| LaserJock | I did | 09:01 |
| highvoltage | heh. i just noticed. | 09:01 |
| ogra | highvoltage, gnome-menus already has a patch for users in the admin group, i'd like to enhance that functionallity for us | 09:01 |
| RobinShepheard | I reckon that sounds like a cool plan, especially if you could tie it in to a central calender so that it was lesson specific | 09:01 |
| ogra | thats the easiest | 09:01 |
| highvoltage | ok. | 09:02 |
| RobinShepheard | not that I am asking a lot or anything | 09:02 |
| LaserJock | hehe | 09:02 |
| LaserJock | well it would be cool to have a teacher admin center (does schooltool do that?) where the teach could specify the groups each student belongs to | 09:03 |
| ogra | that could be an enhancement to S-C-P | 09:03 |
| ogra | well, no, rather not | 09:03 |
| RobinShepheard | I am not sure how they work so bear with me, but could you load a custom menu at login based on a time check?? Is it just a text file basically | 09:04 |
| RobinShepheard | or is there more too it than that?? | 09:04 |
| ogra | there are various way to implement that, so there are plenty of answers to that question :) | 09:05 |
| RobinShepheard | ok fair point, I was just thinking if it is a text file, on login you check time and then compare time to set day for set class and load the file | 09:06 |
| RobinShepheard | add the script into bash.rc | 09:06 |
| RobinShepheard | if you can do it that way of course | 09:06 |
| RobinShepheard | LaserJock: how would you do the groups, would it be by subject or by class group. I was wondering because if you did it by subject you would have to change it every lesson | 09:10 |
| RobinShepheard | where as if it was by class group, you could load based on a schedule | 09:10 |
| LaserJock | RobinShepheard: I was thinking a little more static than that, like for a semester or something | 09:11 |
| RobinShepheard | ahh ok, | 09:11 |
| LaserJock | but I'm pretty sure it coule be expanded to do whatever, we just need to work through the implementation | 09:11 |
| RobinShepheard | reason I ask is the school I went to had six lessons a day and a 2 week rotation, so 10 different days with different lessons | 09:12 |
| highvoltage | what's the new name for espresso again? i keep forgetting that word :/ | 09:13 |
| LaserJock | but would the apps change that much? | 09:13 |
| LaserJock | highvoltage: ubiquity | 09:13 |
| RobinShepheard | and we did most subjects in those 10 days, only real difference between each pupil was which second language and whether you did history or geography | 09:13 |
| highvoltage | LaserJock: thanks | 09:13 |
| ogra | if you really bind it to a schedule a student wont be able to work on chemistry stuff if his bio teacher is ill and he has a spare hour | 09:13 |
| LaserJock | right | 09:14 |
| LaserJock | I would really think that correlating it to like a semester or some larger block of time would be a better way to go | 09:14 |
| ogra | so this could only be an optional thing to suit all needs ... but its not the time to discuss it now ... | 09:14 |
| ogra | we'll have plenty of time for that in paris | 09:14 |
| RobinShepheard | fair point, sort of depends at which education level you are pitching at, primary and most secondary schools in england provide cover if a teacher is off | 09:15 |
| RobinShepheard | what is happening in paris?? | 09:15 |

| ogra | :) | 09:16 |
| LaserJock | doh, missed again | 09:16 |
| LaserJock | for goodness sakes, i should have just typed it out | 09:16 |
| ogra | well, you sent an ad for your spec first, so you had to miss :P | 09:16 |
| LaserJock | hehe | 09:17 |
| LaserJock | ogra: what package should this be implemented in? | 09:17 |
| ogra | you'll likely need a hook in gnome-menus and a new add on package for the menu structure (to not clutter ubuntu with it) | 09:18 |
| LaserJock | right | 09:19 |
| RobinShepheard | if I want to learn a language to help out with the development side is the general agreement that python is the most useful? | 09:20 |
| ogra | for ubuntu it is, yes | 09:20 |
| ogra | and one of the easier to learn | 09:20 |
| RobinShepheard | and it follows that it is pretty useful for edubuntu te | 09:21 |
| RobinShepheard | doh then even | 09:21 |
| ogra | yep | 09:21 |
| LaserJock | and for life in general ;-) | 09:21 |
| ogra | as i said to someone before today, edubuntu is developed *inside* of ubuntu | 09:21 |
| RobinShepheard | and I thought that was why I learnt perl | 09:22 |
| RobinShepheard | cos that was good for life in general | 09:22 |
| ogra | perl is a good start to learn python ... just drop all the semicolons and brackets and you get to python :) | 09:22 |
| LaserJock | I thought perl was to make students live's miserable, guess I missed that :-) | 09:23 |
| ogra | heh | 09:23 |
| RobinShepheard | ok reckon that is a good place to start then, give a month or so and I shall possibly be asking for a bit of work and guidance | 09:23 |
| === ogra had times where perl filled his fridge | ||
| ogra | lots of frozen scriptcode :) | 09:23 |
| LaserJock | RobinShepheard: I'm right there with you, I'm not a programmer by any means and I'm starting to take up Python | 09:24 |
| RobinShepheard | I am stuck running on a SCO box for some of the apps at work ---- not out of choice, I would dump that if I could and that comes with perl | 09:24 |
| RobinShepheard | so it is the best for the job, well the only one for the job | 09:24 |
| LaserJock | no python? | 09:25 |
| RobinShepheard | reckon I will take up python, always did like snakes anyway. | 09:25 |
| RobinShepheard | No it is an old sco openserver 5 box | 09:25 |
| RobinShepheard | I am currently trying to persuade the developers of the app to mave to linux but they are a bit stuck in their wway | 09:26 |

| highvoltage | lucasvo: ok, lucasvo | 10:37 |
| highvoltage | ;) | 10:37 |

| === Amaranth hides | ||
| pygi | Amaranth, heh :) | 10:39 |
| ribbedrabbit | ogra: how do i do that? | 10:40 |
| ogra | ribbedrabbit, open a terminal window from the menu and type alacarte and hit enter | 10:40 |
| ribbedrabbit | ogra, ok will try and then paste to bin | 10:42 |
| ogra | yep | 10:42 |
| Amaranth | that reminds me | 10:42 |
| Amaranth | any non-ubuntu users of alacarte 0.8 are getting a raw deal | 10:43 |
| === Amaranth should probably make an 0.8.1 | ||
| ribbedrabbit | ogra, heres the link http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15208 | 10:43 |
| ogra | Amaranth, dapper-updates is open for cresher fixes (if they are small) :) | 10:43 |
| ogra | *crasher | 10:44 |
| ribbedrabbit | thanx for the help | 10:44 |
| Amaranth | oh crap | 10:44 |
| Amaranth | i thought ubuntu had utf-8 filenames | 10:44 |
| ogra | it has | 10:45 |
| ogra | but users can switch locales ;) | 10:45 |
| Amaranth | it also looks like seb128 didn't use my updated libgnomeui patch :( | 10:47 |
| ribbedrabbit | ogra, any ideas? | 10:48 |
| ogra | ribbedrabbit, what language are you using your desktop in ? | 10:49 |
| Amaranth | ribbedrabbit: i'll whip up a patch tonight, hopefully it can get into dapper-updates | 10:49 |
| ribbedrabbit | ogra, language?? not sure - English? | 10:50 |
| ogra | ribbedrabbit, you're lucky, Amaranth is the guy who cares for alacarte seems you found a bug | 10:50 |
| Amaranth | yeah, pyxdg bug | 10:50 |
| Amaranth | luckily in edgy alacarte won't be using pyxdg anymore :) | 10:50 |
| ogra | :) | 10:51 |
| ribbedrabbit | Ok cool, Cause i've been using it alot I like it too! then it stopped working happened the same time I had a bug with my reposties | 10:51 |
| ogra | do you implement your own version of xdg ? | 10:51 |
| Amaranth | ogra: nope, i talk to gnome-menus | 10:52 |
| ogra | ah, cool | 10:52 |
| LaserJock | hmm, seems like we need to steal Amaranth for an edgy spec ;-) | 10:52 |
| Amaranth | i had a patch to make gnome-menus 2.14.0 work with alacarte cvs | 10:52 |
| Amaranth | seb128 teased me by saying it'd be in the next gnome-menus upload, i think he meant in edgy :/ | 10:53 |
| ogra | LaserJock, hey, he's busy with the proxy ... | 10:53 |
| Amaranth | heh | 10:53 |
| Amaranth | that reminds me | 10:53 |
| Amaranth | it seems a transparent proxy can't do HTTPS | 10:53 |
| Amaranth | so this is going to be interesting | 10:53 |
| LaserJock | well, at least having him around to bug is nice | 10:53 |
| ogra | well, apache can if you use it as proxy | 10:53 |
| Amaranth | yeah, but transparently? | 10:54 |
| Amaranth | without configuring, say, firefox to use a proxy could you use apache to do HTTPS proxying? | 10:54 |
| ogra | transparence should happen through iptables | 10:55 |
| Amaranth | *shrug* | 10:55 |
| Amaranth | the squid guys say you can't do it | 10:55 |
| Amaranth | on that note, would using a sortof man-in-the-middle attack to filter HTTPS be a bad idea? | 10:55 |
| Amaranth | otherwise you have to rely on domain blacklisting | 10:56 |
| Amaranth | crap, gtg | 10:56 |
