jsgotangcoi have a derivative in the works, currently doing some specs07:46
LaserJockcool07:47
LaserJockusing LP?07:47
jsgotangcoi haven't but i should i think07:47
LaserJockwe've been using LP a lot for that derivative raphink and I have been working on07:48
LaserJockspecs, bugs, hopefully soon rosetta07:48
jsgotangcodid you start from a desktop cd or from an alternate one?07:48

jsgotangcomaybe i should pull edubuntu desktop07:49
LaserJockalternate is better for people who know what they're doing, but the desktop cd is flashier07:50
LaserJockpretty straightforward to customize too07:50
jsgotangcowhat the heck ill pull both07:50

RichEdgreetz LaserJock : did you get sorted with the basic menu for the freee ?08:27
RichEdmissing zed there : for the freeze08:27
LaserJockI uploaded edubuntu-menus to Universe08:27
LaserJockwe'll probably want to tweak the .menu files08:28
LaserJockbut it's there anyway08:28
RichEdand what did the basic look like in the end ?08:28
LaserJockhmm, hang on a sec08:29
jsgotangcohey RichEd good morning to you08:30
RichEdhi jsgotangco : wassup in the Pacific regions today ?08:30
LaserJockRichEd: heh, well it seems I don't have the source on me :/08:32
jsgotangcoRichEd: pretty quiet, its mostly doing research for now, did some of my homework though still havent gotten any replies from our contacts, but seems to be mindset has a better model suited to our requirements08:32
=== RichEd thinks LaserJock may taste bland without any source on him
LaserJockheh08:32
LaserJockI think it was: calculator, firefox, text editor, oo writer, oo calc08:33
RichEdLaserJock: quick lesson for me ... If I wanted to add a new top level menu onto my Edubuntu Task Bar [ Applications ]  [ Places ]  [ System ]  [ myMenu ]  ...08:33

=== Burgundavia [n=corey@ubuntu/member/burgundavia] has joined #edubuntu

LaserJockbut getting it in the panel ...08:34
LaserJockthat might be gnome-menus08:34
RichEdokay ... thanks ... will dig around on a quiet day :)08:35

RichEdjsgotangco: okay ... my head is in the right gear now ... 08:49
RichEdjsgotangco: I'd like to help with a chat to biunce around some ideas, and let me qualify that by saying *not* with an Ubuntu agenda, but with a general where to start to show some positive impact with your new role.08:51
RichEdIt would need to be a slow sensible chat, when I can have some dedicated time, and not to multi-taks, or get too broad or vague.08:52
RichEdSo, if you would like to send me a rambling email with some background: thoughts, concerns, areas of potential, constraints (political, financial, or other) ...08:53
RichEdThen if I could read it on the weekend, we could make some time next week for a skype.08:53
RichEdThat's just an offer: No pressure. Take it or leave it. :)08:54
jsgotangcoRichEd: i'll whip one later or tomorrow, since friday is a free time for me, i could do it before the week ends08:58
RichEdjsgotangco: No rush at all. It's a personal interest for me, and not a job item, but I am willing to jump in.09:04
=== Burgundavia_ [n=corey@ubuntu/member/burgundavia] has joined #edubuntu
RichEdFor example, the circumstances around cbx33 and his possible ICT chairman role have had some good resonance with some of the contacts I have been chatting to. And we now have a real troute forward to get a project going.09:05
Burgundavia_RichEd: ict chairmanship?09:06
RichEdSo, if you and I chat, we may find the same w.r.t. Mindset & Sat-Ed, where we can find a realistic exercise to tackle in bite size chunks. Low on promises and PRO, high in results and delivery.09:06
RichEdStuff that makes real-world people confortable & happy.09:06
jsgotangcoict chairmanship wow09:07
RichEdBurgundavia: yeah ... cute & paste from above ... looks like you just missed the comment:09:07
RichEd* Burgwork has quit (Remote closed the connection)09:07
RichEd<cbx33> and another little bit of news - I've been asked to stand for chairman of the Southampton Technical Panel, for school admins/techies - hopefully will put me in a good position for promoting FLOSS09:07
RichEd<cbx33> in talks with RichEd already ;)09:07
RichEdAs a quick expansion, it is a panel of 5 schools ICT admin staff.09:08
RichEdSo recommendations from cbx33 will be across 5 schools, and not just his own.09:08
RichEdSo we are working on him creating a project to "assess the impact of open source and how it could fit into the current environment alongside MS" on the basis that Open Source *will* arrive in schools, just a matter of when.09:09
RichEdSo he tells the panel, that his school will take the lead in an assessment study. He tells his school that the panel supports the idea that his school takes the lead in an assessment study.09:10
RichEdAnd bang: it's an official project, sacntioned by the panel, and with an impact on 5 schools IT staff & environments.09:11
RichEdThat's just the concept we thrashed out yesterday.09:11
jsgotangcobrilliant its so evil i love it09:12
RichEdThe bottom line is that people are afraid of open source. If he can do an impact assessment, and conclude that there is none, and hey Edubuntu can share the server file store and authentication, and proxy. Then he says "come and see for yourselves" in my test lab.09:14
jsgotangcoRichEd: on a serious note, we (me and Gina) talked about doing this before, but since im a developer and she's a broadcast professional, we were a bit stumped09:15
jsgotangco(parallel eval sort of thing)09:15
RichEdAnd then they see it live for themselves, and someone says, that actually looks quite a lot like windoze ... (don't shoot me) ... then the thin end of the wedge is in place.09:15
RichEdLast comment: We have a business experience volunteer in the UK who want to talks to schools management around Open Source (Jon Masters' father) ... so he would be the guest speaker at the demo.09:17
jsgotangcoanyways, the next few weeks would be interesting, my current job focuses on 3 areas in the foundation, but 60% of which is for E Media09:17
RichEdjsgotangco: I can guarantee you that there is at least one place where Open Source will do a current job better than an existing OS. We just ned to find the spot to put the wedge in.09:18
jsgotangcothere's no question about it, the question is more on how E Media evolves to a technology driven project09:19
RichEdAnd we combine the needs as follows: how does eMedia evolve to a technology driven project *priority* and what actual project do you tackle to demonstrate that, with a preference for a projecty that uses an Open Source plaftorm ... with the following important point:09:20
RichEdYou may not want to highlight the FOSS or pay it any attention at all up front. It it the platform you normally use, so you just go ahead and use it. After the eMedia result is demonstrated, then you may choose to say, and by the way, it is running on Ubuntu.09:21
RichEdA simple fact of life, not a hard sell.09:22

RichEdjsgotangco: make sense ?09:25
jsgotangcosure, the solution being FOSS doesnt really sell on marketing terms, i mean if the solution we come up fits as FOSS, we've achieved our target09:26
RichEdjsgotangco: "anyways, the next few weeks would be interesting, my current job focuses on 3 areas in the foundation, but 60% of which is for E Media" that's the backgound I'd like in the email ... what's on your plate now ... not what's for dessert later.09:26
RichEdI must get into my email and the wiki pages now ... will be here ... but working :)09:26
jsgotangcoThe current stuff in  E Media are on unrestricted DVDs so making them run as is on a computer will work, 09:27

cbx33creating a neverending loop11:10
cbx33circular resolution ;)11:10
ograno, thats right11:10
cbx33so /usr/lib/usplash/edubuntu-usplash.so pointed back to alternatives ?11:11
ograthats how alternatives should work ... ubuntu-splash.so should point to /etc/alternatives  ...11:11
cbx33oh ok11:11
cbx33i see11:11
ograand /etc/alternatives should then point to edubuntu-splash.so11:11
cbx33what about if I remove all the alternatives etc11:11
cbx33and then try reinstalling the packge11:11
ograno, dont touch it11:11
cbx33ok11:11
ograyoure my testcase ;)11:11

cbx33ogra: but I'm not sure it is broken11:12
ograhmm, easiest would probably be to just rename the .so ...11:12
cbx33I edited a symlink in the /usr/lib/usplash11:13
ograwell, you said you dont see the splash11:13
cbx33no I don;t11:13
cbx33but it could have been my fault11:13
ograright11:13
ograhmm11:13
cbx33I didn't touch /etc/alternatives11:13
cbx33but i did touch the one in /uer/lib/usplash11:13
cbx33what do you suggest?11:14
ograwhat did you do with it ? 11:14
ograsadly the installer is still broken, else i could test with a CD ...11:15
cbx33made it point to the .so in that folder11:15
ograno, thats wrong indeed11:15
cbx33I know that now11:15
cbx33Seveas: and I had a discussion and I must have gotten it wrong11:16
cbx33but he said that circular resolution should happen11:17
cbx33that's what threw me11:17
cbx33ogra: i can reinstall with a knot 2 cd11:17
ograwell, its not really circular 11:18
ograthat would help a lot11:18
cbx33two symlinks pointed directly to each other11:18

pygiogra, any chance I can help with something?04:33

ogramy prob is that i had no opportunity to test anything yet due to general installer breakages 04:35

jsgotangcogahhh04:37
ograunfortunately i missed that we have knot3 planned for tomorrow04:37
jsgotangcoyeah04:37
pygijsgotangco, my problem is that there is no way I can get my gpg keys signed before hungarian conf. :-/04:37
pygiThe packaging stuff is really not a problem04:38
ograpygi, unfortunately in this situation nobody can help me, not even a motu ... it needs to be a main guy who is familiar with seeds, metapackages and CD building04:38
pygiogra, perhaps, but this wouldn't happen if you didn't have to bother with other stuff04:39
ograi dint bother with any universe stuff this time ...04:39
ogra90% of my work in edgy was ltsp04:40
ograand 8% CD building and probably 2% artwork, SCP, willowng04:40
jsgotangcoits just bad timing04:41
ograyes04:41
ograif i had the next 24h to sort everything it would be fine 04:41
pygiogra, hopefully we'll be able to merge me in into that ltsp stuff someday somehow ^_^04:41
ograif something avoids that ubuntu releases tomorrow and it gets postponed to friday, we still have a chance04:41
pygiogra, can't we by any chance request postponing?04:42
ograno04:42
pygiaha,ok04:42
ogramy prob is that i couldnt test anything yet .. 04:42
ograso even if the installer works again, i dont know how ltsp will behave, if something from edubuntu-desktop or -server is broken ...04:43
ograevery fix for them takes several hours until we can have a new CD to test04:43
ograi.e. a meta fix would mean to update the seeds ... then wait 30 min until the change is on LP then build a new meta ... upload that, wait 2h until thats built ... 04:44
ograthen build CDs, download/rsync them and start testing 04:45
ograso thats ~3-4h for every small fix04:45
ograits not a timing issue as jsgotangco said, but rather a speed issue with the infrastructure 04:45
jsgotangcoit does take a while for them to build considering wee building to 3 architectures at least04:45
ograi think for edgy+1 i'll set up my own CD build environment so i can buold/fix until everything is fine and then onyl use LP for the last bit04:46
ograbut thats indeed not the prupose of LP04:47
pygiogra, post-edgy we'll have to talk a bit ... you'll have to inform me bit more so I can help you hacking LTSP04:47
pygibest would be if we could discuss it on conf. along with that burning devices support on thin clients04:48

STORMCHAS3Rgreat05:29
STORMCHAS3Rsending shortly05:29
ograTeePOG, on a normal desktop gstreamer is used in gnome ... dunno what kde uses ... in ltsp esd is used05:29
pygiSTORMCHAS3R, thanks :)05:30
ogragstreamer writes directly to alsa afaik05:30
TeePOGnm ogra, sound is not essential... it would be nice thugh05:30
TeePOGwhat about arts?05:30
ograwell, it should work out of the box05:30
ograat least on a standard workstation 05:30
ograarts is likely what kde uses05:31
TeePOGwell, whatever it is, it's not working on my kubuntu-desktop OR my default edubuntu-desktop05:31
ograwait until crimsun gets here again .. he's the alsa guy05:32

Laser_awayogra: thanks :-)05:38
ograwelcome :)05:38
STORMCHAS3Rim sure this is a odd ?, but does anything need to be installed on the thin-client for it to boot to the lts?05:53
ogranope05:54
ograit boots via net from the server 05:54
ograbut it needs to be PXE capable05:54
STORMCHAS3Rrgr, so it pulls dhcp from the lts, and boots from a PXE net card05:55
ograPXE pulls the ip and info where to get its kernel from dhcp05:55
STORMCHAS3Rsweet, i am in the process of setting this up to test out05:56

LaserJockRichEd: wonderful stuff11:29
LaserJockin fact I wish we could totally revolutionize Ubuntu11:29

RichEdThanks ... it's bringing some good stuff into focus. 11:29
RichEdLaserJock: we'll get there ...11:30
LaserJockjust user solutions11:30
LaserJockpeople usually couldn't care less what the product is specifically11:30
LaserJockthey just want to do what they want11:30
LaserJockand since it comes from the same repo anyway11:31
LaserJockwhat would be wonderful, in the end, is to have customizable, solution based .isos 11:31
mhzhi all11:40

mhzPuerto Rico, Colombia and Venezuela.11:41
mhzArgentina, Brazil and Chile are the next 3 to join11:42
mhzthe good thing is that any student will have same standards no matter which country he goes to11:42
mhzor studies from11:42
mhznow, for the Chile case, I have been having some meetings to get the infrastructure for the institute11:43
mhz(small detail :D )11:43

mhzRichEd: Jolanta Polk, Commercial Section and Education of11:49
mhzBritish Embassy Santiago (www.britemb.cl) insisted that Canonical (if it is a UK company) should contact her11:49
RichEddon't think we will have a stand ... we'll send a team to talk to stand holder companies ... phase 111:49
RichEdShe's in the mail I see ... do you have an email address for her ?11:50
mhzbecause she's doing seminars and tours on regular basis here in Chile, and if I had contacted 2 weeks earlier, I would have been showing and demoing Edubuntu/Ubuntu sponsored by UK Embassy.11:51
mhz(they organized a 2 weeks tour in Chile in 3 very important/strategic Regions, until last week)11:52
mhzRichEd: I pasted her email via PM11:52
RichEdThanks ... I see it now.11:54
mhzLaserJock: LaserJock feels utterly useless to Edubuntu <---- Why you say that?11:54
RichEdIt's coming up to pumpkin time on a long day ... so I must be heading off to the land of zzz's.11:55

mhzhighvoltage: hi mon...just in case you get to see this... Translation of Edubuntu.org into Spanish is 95% ready11:59
mhzRichEd: I requested such material on the <body> of the ship it field, but I have no idea if Jane actually reads every special request ;)11:59
RichEdthere is a specuial page ... trying to find it now12:00
LaserJockmhz: I said that because you guys have sooo much you are doing in the educational world12:01
LaserJockit's awesome12:01
RichEdhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuAtConferences12:02
mhzRichEd: in case you are looking it up...hmmm, I used the 'special request' page from shipit, where I am asked to specify why I am requesting special number of CDs12:02
pips1_yeah, mhz, sounds like you are very busy, great news!12:02
RichEdLaserJock: you are loved and wanted ... and valuable to us dude.12:02

LaserJock;-)12:04
mhzhehehe12:04
mhznn12:04
pips1_LaserJock: I just read what you said earlier, about end users don't care what the name/technology of it is, as long as they can do what they want. I couldn't agree more. 12:04
mhzpips1_: yeah, me too12:05
mhzor three ;)12:05
=== RichEd would agree and disagree
LaserJocksure12:05
mhzoops, time for me to get off line again :(12:05
mhzsorry, too short..12:05
mhztoo late12:05
RichEdTo throw in a last thought ... seeing as janeW is busy buying a new car ... 12:05
=== pips1_ is looking forward to talk to RichEd about his agree/disagree
RichEd5 years ago, cars used gas, we didn't care how much12:06
mhzpips1_: there wont be more RichEd if he does not go off line12:06
mhzpips1_: there wont be more RichEd if he does not go off line:)12:06
RichEdnow we care about the environment, in some ways12:06
mhztrue12:06
LaserJockRichEd: true, I'll throw in my wife story too12:06
RichEdso, the average person will not use open source becuase it represents choice and freedom12:07
mhzhence, WE MUST not forget about old hardware machines with ubuntu12:07
LaserJockmy wife's laptop has both Ubuntu, Kubuntu, and Windows XP on it12:07
LaserJockand I use Opera and FireFox12:07
RichEdbut, the average person willbe proud to tell their friends (after the fact) that their software represents choice and freedom12:07
LaserJockbut 9 out of 10 time my wife doesn't know what I'm using unless here bookmarks aren't there12:07
RichEdit is not a deal breaker or maker ... but it is a warm and fuzzy12:07
=== mhz usually complains new versions of Ubuntu are too concerned about new machines and little by little forget about old harware/processors, less powerful machines
=== RichEd stops talking in his sleep ...
LaserJockas long as she can get to the content she wants, she doesn't care what OS or even what browser it is12:08
mhzLaserJock: yup, so does my wife...12:08
pips1_RichEd: I think I got you :)12:08
RichEdyes ... agreed LaserJock ... but when you remind her it is open source, she may tell a friend ...12:09
mhzBUT she does care about using new software on older machines12:09
LaserJockbut the OSS education is after she can get where she wants to go12:09
RichEdif she used windows ... she will feel no need to mention it12:09
RichEdyep .... -> but, the average person willbe proud to tell their friends (after the fact) <- 12:09
mhzoops12:09
mhzgotta run12:09
LaserJockand if we focus on the product rather then the solution we are providing (which OSS is a part of)12:10
mhzbye all!12:10
pips1_mhz: cu12:10
LaserJockcya12:10
RichEdit's not a key factor ... but it is reaching awareness12:10
=== RichEd is really gone now ... promise thans pips1_ & LaserJock : nice support
RichEdthanks12:10
LaserJockcya RichEd, tell JaneW hello12:10
pips1_yes, greetings to JaneW 12:11
