ubuntu | hello folks | 12:19 |
ubuntu | 3 tries of fresh beta install, 3 different set of problems | 12:20 |
ubuntu | first: installations breaks on broken cups package | 12:20 |
ubuntu | second: the user isn't created | 12:20 |
ubuntu | third: no X && GDM existance | 12:20 |
LaserJock | heh, fun | 12:21 |
cbx33 | hey LaserJock | 12:21 |
ubuntu | LaserJock: indeed, fun :) | 12:22 |
LaserJock | I think perhaps 1) is a known thing perhaps | 12:22 |
cbx33 | LaserJock, I just managed to get CounterStrike Source running on linux ;) | 12:22 |
LaserJock | heh, good for you | 12:22 |
ubuntu | LaserJock: I think 1) was supposed to be fixed :P | 12:22 |
ubuntu | LaserJock: and howcome on second and third try it didn't happen? :P | 12:23 |
LaserJock | I've been spending the day avoiding a nervous breakdown ;-) | 12:23 |
cbx33 | whaaa>? | 12:23 |
cbx33 | y? | 12:23 |
LaserJock | ubuntu: not sure, odd | 12:23 |
LaserJock | cbx33: oh, the usual. Very tired today, plus lots and lots of "stuff" | 12:24 |
cbx33 | yeh? | 12:26 |
cbx33 | server still doing good? | 12:26 |
LaserJock | I think so | 12:26 |
=== ubuntu would like to get some answers if possible;) | ||
LaserJock | ubuntu: ask #ubuntu+1 | 12:27 |
LaserJock | I really don't know | 12:27 |
ubuntu | this is edubuntu :P | 12:27 |
LaserJock | sure | 12:27 |
ubuntu | ahm, oki | 12:27 |
LaserJock | but the installation is the same | 12:27 |
LaserJock | pretty much | 12:28 |
LaserJock | I don't think you're issues are edubuntu specific | 12:28 |
ubuntu | will do | 12:28 |

LaserJock | glasswalkertheur: you could check launchpad to see if a bug has been filed about it | 01:01 |

LaserJock | http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bugs | 01:01 |
glasswalkertheur | thanks, I will take a look | 01:02 |
glasswalkertheur | is their any way to identify the actual chipset, w/o firing up BartPE? | 01:03 |

lucasvo | skwashd: I actually donn't seea beta at all. | 12:26 |

pygi | this is FOSS world | 06:09 |
lucasvo | pygi: but for example google gives me only the launchpad hit | 06:10 |
pygi | lucasvo: You would except KDE-Edu founder to be interested in Edubuntu ;) | 06:10 |
lucasvo | pygi: what will you write? | 06:10 |
lucasvo | it won't be hard | 06:10 |
pygi | lucasvo: I wrote it already | 06:10 |
lucasvo | just got it while I was typing | 06:11 |
pygi | it's a compromise beetween what I really wanted to write | 06:11 |
pygi | I cannot talk about some things :) | 06:11 |
lucasvo | pygi: you mean some sort of: Get real and becoma a gnome user. KDE s**** that's why we made gallium? ;) | 06:13 |
highvoltage | I don't quite understand, why is there so much hostility against the creation of gallium? | 06:14 |
lucasvo | highvoltage: usually I am also against creating things twice. but in this case, I don't see a better solution | 06:15 |
lucasvo | it's a huge amount of work being done twice. which could also be invested in other edu apps | 06:15 |
=== lguerra [i=lguerra@200.21.93.195] has joined #edubuntu | ||
highvoltage | it's not as much as creating it from scracth though, since gallium will use the data from kalzium, so it's a very small part of the work that's being duplicated | 06:16 |
lucasvo | highvoltage: keeping bug free, creating packages, making publicity... | 06:16 |
lucasvo | maintainaning the chemical data is not that big, since most of it is already well known and not in research anymore | 06:17 |
Laser_away | gallium was metioned on planet by pygi | 06:19 |
=== Laser_away is now known as LaserJock | ||
highvoltage | i think publicity and creating packages are minor compared to the CD space problem | 06:20 |
highvoltage | I think in the end it comes down to is priorities | 06:21 |
highvoltage | unforunately you always have to make some sacrifice | 06:21 |
highvoltage | hi LaserJock | 06:21 |
LaserJock | highvoltage: I can understand the problem if you look at it as "Edubuntu ships KDEEdu, Edubuntu is also developing a GTK port of Kalzium" | 06:21 |
LaserJock | but I don't feel like "Edubuntu" is developing Gallium | 06:22 |
LaserJock | it's not speced | 06:22 |
highvoltage | yep | 06:22 |
highvoltage | LaserJock: you're developing it, right? | 06:22 |
LaserJock | well, I started it | 06:22 |
LaserJock | I haven't done any of the code yet | 06:22 |
LaserJock | but I feel like I'm the guy in charge, I think ;-) | 06:22 |
highvoltage | ok | 06:23 |
LaserJock | I guess I'll send a reply | 06:24 |
LaserJock | I kinda feel bad, because it's kinda like "Yeah, we want to drop KDE Edu | 06:24 |
lucasvo | LaserJock: isn't that true? | 06:26 |
LaserJock | yes, but that's not really nice to say to the KDEEdu founder | 06:26 |
pygi | LaserJock: I haven't said we wanna drop KDE Edu | 06:27 |
pygi | lucasvo: and no, ofcourse I dont think that everyone should become Gnome user | 06:27 |
pygi | lucasvo: that kind of attitude sucks heavily dude | 06:27 |
lucasvo | pygi: this is not my attitude however it's quite similar. | 06:28 |
LaserJock | but being able to drop KDEEdu *is* a part of why gallium was started | 06:28 |
LaserJock | so I want to be careful | 06:28 |
pygi | LaserJock: ups, you are right, might be that she saw my blog post where I mentioned Gallium | 06:28 |
pygi | LaserJock: ah | 06:28 |
lucasvo | pygi: Too bad gnome and kde do the same stuff and don't collaborate. I think it should be possible to develop something that pleases both users. | 06:29 |
lucasvo | pygi: so I think, one should merge them. | 06:29 |
pygi | lucasvo: Free (libre) world is about a choice | 06:29 |
lucasvo | pygi: yes. | 06:29 |
pygi | we're don't want to become Windows!! | 06:29 |
pygi | we* | 06:29 |
lucasvo | pygi: how comes that still major distributions all look the same? | 06:29 |
pygi | lucasvo: you don't how wrong you are | 06:30 |
lucasvo | pygi: ? | 06:30 |
lucasvo | pygi: I don't see much difference in fedora, suse and ubuntu | 06:30 |
pygi | I do, a lot of difference | 06:30 |
lucasvo | what? | 06:30 |
pygi | why aren't you part of fedora or suse community then? | 06:30 |
pygi | why have you choosen the Ubuntu/Edubuntu? | 06:31 |
lucasvo | because it used apt | 06:31 |
pygi | lucasvo: do you know how & why Gnome was created?! | 06:31 |
lucasvo | no | 06:31 |
pygi | Because KDE was built on top of then propietarity (not free) QT | 06:31 |
pygi | It was started to offer the user a freedom! | 06:31 |
pygi | lucasvo: FYI, fedora & suse can also use apt | 06:32 |
pygi | apt-rpm | 06:32 |
lucasvo | so actually there is no reason anymore not to merge | 06:32 |
pygi | there are reasons! | 06:32 |
lucasvo | pygi: that the community has different taste? | 06:33 |
highvoltage | LaserJock: I think 'drop' is also a strong word | 06:33 |
pygi | lucasvo: uh, you don't understand :-/ | 06:33 |
highvoltage | 'not included by default' is probably more accurate | 06:33 |
lucasvo | highvoltage: not rely on it | 06:33 |
pygi | highvoltage: I believe if we had space on cd, we'd include anything we can :P | 06:33 |
highvoltage | since it would still be just an apt-get install away | 06:33 |
highvoltage | pygi: that's probably true | 06:33 |
pygi | highvoltage: one partial solution probably might be separating lang packs just for apps we ship | 06:34 |
pygi | if that is possible | 06:34 |
lucasvo | pygi: what big difference is there (for the user, not the developer) between QT and GTK? | 06:34 |
LaserJock | there was/is some speed differente, and the look is just different | 06:35 |
pygi | lucasvo: but it's not about the toolkits | 06:35 |
LaserJock | yes | 06:35 |
lucasvo | pygi: starting by having one toolkit would make portability between gnome and kde much easier. | 06:36 |
=== highvoltage catches up with e-mail nd has a better understanding of what this is about | ||
pygi | highvoltage: KDE-Edu and edubuntu | 06:37 |
lucasvo | LaserJock: if that is your reason she'll say: Why didn't you just enhance kalzium? | 06:37 |
pygi | the mail subject :) | 06:37 |
highvoltage | pygi: read it :) | 06:37 |
lucasvo | which is true | 06:37 |
pygi | highvoltage: yay :) | 06:37 |
highvoltage | well, it's a great way to work with a good upstream project | 06:37 |
pygi | lucasvo: uh, uh, you have some fundamental thinking errors | 06:37 |
pygi | about F/OSS world | 06:37 |
lucasvo | I wouldn't call it errors. | 06:38 |
LaserJock | lucasvo: because I want a GTK port of Kalzium, not kalzium | 06:38 |
highvoltage | lucasvo: there are many others that feel the same | 06:39 |
LaserJock | pygi and lucasvo: let's keep it civil | 06:39 |
pygi | LaserJock: yes, I'll stop :) | 06:39 |
highvoltage | lucasvo: we've come under fire in tuxlabs a bit for running kalzium on Xfce in tuXlabs | 06:39 |
lucasvo | highvoltage: I lost track, feel the same than what? | 06:39 |
highvoltage | people tell us it's inefficient to run apps that require different frameworks, wasting memory and resources | 06:40 |
LaserJock | yeah | 06:40 |
highvoltage | lucasvo: people who want a GTK port of Kalzium | 06:40 |
LaserJock | it's not *only* a disk space issue | 06:40 |
highvoltage | lucasvo:don't get me wrong, I *love* the KDE-edu project, and I think we can support them whatever happens in the future | 06:40 |
LaserJock | as highvoltage has said, running a KDE app in Gnome is slower and more memory intensive than running it in KDE | 06:41 |
highvoltage | perhaps the Kubuntu team could even work on a edubuntu-kubuntu-desktop, that could include the kde-edu tools instead of edubnuntt(ehatever)-tools | 06:41 |
lucasvo | kedubuntu? | 06:41 |
highvoltage | perhaps | 06:41 |
highvoltage | who kows? | 06:42 |
highvoltage | perhaps we could even work on an edubuntu-add-on cd. I've been wanting to work on something like that for a while. | 06:42 |
lucasvo | that sounds like a good idea | 06:42 |
highvoltage | when I have my internet connection back next week, that would be possible again | 06:42 |
lucasvo | highvoltage: however that "only" solves the space issue, not performance issue | 06:43 |
highvoltage | that way you can make it easy for users to distribute kde-edu and it's libs, and even more additional tools that we'd like to see there. | 06:43 |
lucasvo | btw, anyone contacted gperiodic and told them about gallium? | 06:43 |
highvoltage | lucasvo: you're completely right, but it's at least a compromise and a temporary solution | 06:43 |
lucasvo | highvoltage: of course it's not a bad idea. I'd like to have more edu software as well | 06:43 |
lucasvo | mostly academic software, since edubuntu is not very useful for me anymore | 06:44 |
pygi | lucasvo: is gperiodic developed anymore even? | 06:45 |
lucasvo | pygi: don't think so | 06:45 |
lucasvo | 1.3.3 Fri Jan 18 10:34:38 EST 2002 | 06:45 |
lucasvo | last changelog entry | 06:45 |
pygi | lucasvo: that's why I asked | 06:45 |
lucasvo | pygi: but having the owner put a link onto the page that one should use gallium since it's more up to date would be nice | 06:46 |
LaserJock | gperiodic is basically dead and I looked at the code | 06:47 |
LaserJock | It's written in C and has a bad storage format for the data | 06:48 |
LaserJock | umm | 07:00 |
LaserJock | did somebody forward an email to ? | 07:00 |
LaserJock | me | 07:00 |
highvoltage | LaserJock: I don't know. we don't have access to your inbox :p | 07:05 |
LaserJock | well, I just all of a sudden got an email about gallium | 07:06 |
highvoltage | ah, from ogra? | 07:10 |
LaserJock | no | 07:10 |
LaserJock | apparently pygi started more then he intended | 07:10 |
LaserJock | gallium is not a thread topic | 07:11 |
LaserJock | as "hidden" port of Kalzium | 07:11 |
LaserJock | http://cniehaus.livejournal.com/ | 07:11 |
nixternal | somebody offered me $25 for an Edubuntu CD today | 07:13 |
LaserJock | http://cniehaus.livejournal.com/ | 07:13 |
highvoltage | nixternal: wow! | 07:13 |
nixternal | I had told a couple of people about Ubuntu, and they were teachers, so I brought up Edubuntu, and I pulled a CD from my trusty bag, and I had them, hook-line-and-sinker | 07:13 |
LaserJock | http://hardly.cubic.uni-koeln.de/pipermail/blue-obelisk/2006-September/000862.html | 07:14 |
highvoltage | nixternal: our local lug had a stand at a big local show this week, and people had a tough time believeing that we didn't want to sell them stuff :) | 07:14 |
nixternal | The lady asked, how much do those go for, after I explained "Free"...so i did a salesman, "well...ummm.." | 07:14 |
nixternal | and she goes, I will give you $25 | 07:14 |
nixternal | I said, $25 is to low, way to low | 07:14 |
nixternal | but I will give you a few for free ;) | 07:14 |
nixternal | i either have a couple new possible clients, or dates | 07:15 |
nixternal | don't know yet | 07:15 |
highvoltage | hmmm... so is blue obelisk essentially the same as gallium in concept? | 07:15 |
nixternal | highvoltage: that rocks right there...we did the same and got the same reaction...so we started selling the CDs for $1 each, and donated to a Children's fund | 07:15 |
highvoltage | nixternal: we sold some ubuntu cd's that we made ourselves (shipit couldn't get it here in time) for R10 (about US$2) and we're going to make t-shirts for everyone that volunteered on the stand | 07:17 |
nixternal | ooh...you know what...that isn't that bad of an idea...i ahve the entire Ubuntu Chicago team hounding me for t-shirts | 07:17 |
=== jbrefort [n=jean@lns-bzn-58-82-251-208-165.adsl.proxad.net] has joined #edubuntu | ||
highvoltage | heh :) | 07:17 |
nixternal | i can get nice embroidered Ubuntu Chicago Polo shirts displaying all 4 logos for $18/ea | 07:18 |
nixternal | awesome work...this lady did the shirts for a company i used to own when we did a golf outing | 07:18 |
highvoltage | sounds cool | 07:18 |
nixternal | I need about 50 ;( | 07:18 |
nixternal | thats a lot of CDs at $1 | 07:18 |
LaserJock | arrrggg | 07:18 |
highvoltage | our t-shirts are simple blue golf shirts with the CLUG logo on... I think I can find a pic somewere... | 07:19 |
nixternal | LaserJock: it is saturday, you better be with the wife, otherwise i think you will need to redecorate that dog-house | 07:19 |
LaserJock | she's here and sick still :/ | 07:19 |
nixternal | you better tend to her then ;) | 07:19 |
highvoltage | http://photos.jonathancarter.co.za/futurex2006/pict0196 <--- that's about the only one that I have | 07:20 |
LaserJock | but this stupid gallium thing is going to give me a headache today :( | 07:20 |
highvoltage | still have to upload the good photos I took :) | 07:20 |
nixternal | now that would actually work right there | 07:20 |
highvoltage | LaserJock: in free software, whenever you're going to take on something worth while you're ultimately going to make some people angry | 07:20 |
highvoltage | LaserJock: don't let some dumb comments get to you, gallium is a good idea | 07:21 |
LaserJock | oh freaking heck | 07:21 |
LaserJock | http://cniehaus.livejournal.com/27154.html#comments | 07:22 |
nixternal | ahhh, talking about the kde-edu comments i take it | 07:22 |
LaserJock | no, I got an email, a few actually | 07:22 |
LaserJock | a little "WTF are you doing?" | 07:22 |
highvoltage | geez | 07:23 |
LaserJock | all from one sentence on planet.ubuntu.com | 07:23 |
nixternal | ouch..i never seen that post right there | 07:23 |
highvoltage | well, that's being uncollaborative, and not in line with any kind of good CoC | 07:23 |
nixternal | i can understand the frustration though, i mean we work hand in hand with debian, and most of the time with the WM's as well | 07:24 |
LaserJock | well, they don't have any facts | 07:24 |
LaserJock | they didn't ask me or any gallium dev | 07:24 |
LaserJock | we are not writing it from scratch | 07:25 |
highvoltage | geez, some people we really nasty | 07:25 |
highvoltage | the anger that powers those blog comments aren't backed by facts either | 07:26 |
LaserJock | well, there aren't any facts | 07:26 |
highvoltage | they even call canonical evil. what's so evil about them? they're just another random company. | 07:26 |
LaserJock | we haven't even published any code | 07:26 |
LaserJock | all we have is an LP page | 07:26 |
highvoltage | they seem to have gfound some code on cbx33's website | 07:28 |
highvoltage | (gfound being a very strange typo in this case :) ) | 07:29 |
LaserJock | argg | 07:29 |
LaserJock | they went trolling around for stuff, they took a lot of effort | 07:30 |
nixternal | you know, that started off as a legit "grief" they had, over soemthing they really hadn't researched, which we know is stupid for one...and second, all it takes is for one idiot to start an anti-ubuntu/canonical flame war...jealous people are ignorant ;) | 07:34 |
LaserJock | I don't even know where to begin | 07:34 |
nixternal | truthfully, i wouldn't respond to the blog | 07:38 |
nixternal | i would do it the professional way, as that blog is loaded with "nonsense" from people to scared to let the world know who they are | 07:38 |
LaserJock | well, I just added myself to planet.u.c so maybe I could start a blog war ;-) | 07:38 |
nixternal | if you are going to complain about something. let us know who you are, so we can contact you and talk it over | 07:39 |
highvoltage | hehe | 07:39 |
LaserJock | nixternal: I'm not so worried about the blog as the 2 mailing lists it's on right now | 07:39 |
nixternal | thats the saem as someone who complains about the government, and then during elections, they don't vote | 07:39 |
nixternal | i seen it ont he dev list earlier | 07:39 |
highvoltage | Anne-Marie did the decent thing, at least | 07:39 |
highvoltage | I think it was big of here to send that message to edubuntu-devel | 07:39 |
highvoltage | perhaps it's better to work with her as the leader instead, she can deal with all the kde-edut minions who are misbehaving. | 07:40 |
nixternal | watch that tone of voice towards KDE* | 07:40 |
nixternal | ;) | 07:40 |
highvoltage | I meant it in the kindest possible way :) | 07:40 |
nixternal | im off the leash today | 07:40 |
nixternal | hehe | 07:41 |
nixternal | i do however have a new saying for gnome users and c++ | 07:41 |
nixternal | lol | 07:41 |
LaserJock | well, the blog was from the Kalzium author | 07:42 |
LaserJock | and there is a Blue Obelisk thread | 07:43 |
LaserJock | where the emailed the author of another project called gallium | 07:43 |
LaserJock | I've never heard of Blue Obelisk and they are mad at me for not joining their organization | 07:44 |
highvoltage | LaserJock: I can't find that blog entry | 07:44 |
highvoltage | LaserJock: do you have a link for me? | 07:44 |
highvoltage | I can't find it on laserjock.us | 07:44 |
LaserJock | what? | 07:44 |
LaserJock | I haven't done anything on laserjock.us | 07:44 |
LaserJock | I just woke up | 07:44 |
LaserJock | to this | 07:44 |
highvoltage | ah ok. where i the blog entry where you said something about galium? | 07:45 |
LaserJock | I didn't | 07:45 |
highvoltage | aah, I see | 07:45 |
highvoltage | ok, I thought this was sparked by a blog entry of yours. | 07:45 |
LaserJock | pygi had *1* sentence about it on planet.u.c | 07:45 |
highvoltage | geez, then the kde-edu people are even more touchy than I though | 07:45 |
highvoltage | *thought | 07:45 |
LaserJock | "ravis, Pete, and some more people started their work on Gallium, replacement for Kalzium, and we can already see some usable results." | 07:46 |
highvoltage | Just found it :) | 07:46 |
highvoltage | i think he should perhaps have said 'developing a GTK front-end to kalzium', instead of using the word 'replacement' | 07:47 |
LaserJock | yes | 07:47 |
highvoltage | people get touchy when they hear that word :) | 07:47 |
LaserJock | but that's all it took | 07:47 |
highvoltage | hectic | 07:47 |
LaserJock | the thing is, I think I'm the one in Edubuntu that likes KDE the most | 07:47 |
highvoltage | I might be second or third | 07:48 |
highvoltage | I like KDE a lot, but not to the degree that I'm on any level passionate enough to fight for it | 07:48 |
LaserJock | I have no problem with it and I'm very impressed with Kalzium | 07:49 |
highvoltage | everytime the kalzium issue comes up, people in edubuntu have acknowledged hoe great kde and kalzium is. | 07:49 |
highvoltage | even ogra, who isn't a fan of KDE, acknowledged the achievements of Kalzium and talked about all the awards that it has won, etc. | 07:50 |
LaserJock | I just wanted to have an app in Gnome to be maybe as good | 07:50 |
LaserJock | oh man, I actuall read the blog comments | 08:04 |
LaserJock | I totally just want to cry right now | 08:04 |
pygi | bleh, now go ahead and attack me for mentioning gallium :) | 08:04 |
pygi | LaserJock: what comments? /me doesn't see any comments | 08:06 |
nixternal | i will fight for KDE ;) | 08:08 |
nixternal | I say we have a GNOME vs. KDE Wrestlemania! | 08:08 |
nixternal | actually, that is a bad idea, i recently seen an image of the KDE hackers, and it was quite scary | 08:08 |
LaserJock | pygi: I don't blame you. It was a pretty innocent comment. | 08:09 |
LaserJock | pygi: http://cniehaus.livejournal.com/27154.html#comments | 08:09 |
nixternal | ya, pygi isn't to blame at all, they took everything out of context in the blog, and instead of contacting us, they decided to start a flame war..more than likely just a feeble attempt to get people to visit their blog | 08:10 |
pygi | LaserJock: bleh, won't even read that. I hate that Gnome VS. KDE stuff | 08:10 |
pygi | I develop for both platforms, so what, go ahead and kill me now :P | 08:10 |
nixternal | it seems that, that is the intention of many of these types of blog posts in the first place..if i can get you to visit my site and get upset about something with ubuntu, I have won, because you will keep checking back to see the comments | 08:10 |
LaserJock | well, I wouldn't bother if it was just some guy | 08:11 |
LaserJock | but that's *the* Kalzium developer | 08:11 |
pygi | whatever, lemme comment | 08:11 |
LaserJock | pygi: tbh, I'd rather you stay low, if you don't mind. It's not your project and you didn't do anything wrong | 08:12 |
nixternal | Edubuntu-folks prefere to rewrite Kalzium from scratch instead of packaging Kalzium. | 08:12 |
nixternal | so, this version of kalzium on my machine, how did it get there? if we didn't package it? | 08:13 |
pygi | LaserJock: but this was my mess | 08:13 |
nixternal | alrighty all...i need to get a life and back away from the keyboard for a little while | 08:14 |
nixternal | i shall return later to devulge in my life as a Kubuntu & Edubuntu junky! | 08:14 |
nixternal | ttyl | 08:14 |
pygi | LaserJock: so should probably be my responsability to clean it up | 08:16 |
pygi | LaserJock: but ok, will stop | 08:16 |
LaserJock | pygi: well, it's really my mess | 08:17 |
LaserJock | you just helped ;-) | 08:17 |
pygi | LaserJock: heh, thanks for comforting me | 08:17 |
pygi | :P | 08:17 |
=== highvoltage doesn't even think it's a mess | ||
LaserJock | well | 08:18 |
LaserJock | I guess so | 08:18 |
LaserJock | I'm writing edubuntu-devel now | 08:18 |
LaserJock | hopefully clarify that one | 08:18 |
LaserJock | and then I'll email this Blue Obelisk group | 08:18 |
LaserJock | and leave the blog alone, although it has a huge amount of misinformation | 08:19 |
pygi | LaserJock: please cc me if possible | 08:19 |
LaserJock | pygi: ok, I probably won't on edubuntu-devel since I assume you get it ;-) | 08:19 |
pygi | LaserJock: right | 08:20 |
pygi | this is particulary idiotic: | 08:23 |
pygi | The guys who started that project seem to be religious butt heads that are living in their small narrow world (like the maintainer of Edubuntu whom I know personally). | 08:23 |
pygi | I mean wth?! | 08:23 |
=== highvoltage wonders who that is | ||
highvoltage | ogra definately doesn't live in a narrow little world | 08:26 |
highvoltage | neither does anyone else I can think of in Edubuntu | 08:26 |
LaserJock | yeah, can you imagine seb128 adding KDE-Edu to Ubuntu? ;-) | 08:26 |
highvoltage | :) | 08:27 |
Amaranth | I seem to remember the whole point of gallium being getting rid of the massive i18n packages pulled in for a few small apps | 08:30 |
LaserJock | *cough* | 08:31 |
LaserJock | well, for me it was a little more lofty goal | 08:32 |
highvoltage | lofty? | 08:32 |
LaserJock | I find Gnome sorely lacking in educational apps | 08:32 |
=== highvoltage never knew that Americans used that word | ||
LaserJock | we can speak some decent English... if we want to | 08:32 |
highvoltage | hehe :) | 08:33 |
LaserJock | ok, edubuntu-devel email sent | 08:34 |
LaserJock | on to Blue Obelisk | 08:34 |
LaserJock | I feel bad because they sent those emails to the other gallium project | 08:35 |
pygi | LaserJock: uhm, really? :-/ | 08:35 |
=== pygi waits Laser's mail | ||
LaserJock | yeah, I found out after I made the LP product that there is a gallium project for a Carbon emulator | 08:36 |
LaserJock | which is soooo totally different then our project that I didn't think it'd be a big problem | 08:36 |
pygi | o joy | 08:36 |
LaserJock | but apparently they didn't read the project homepage before the blasted email to the poor guy | 08:36 |
=== pygi should really stop blogging :P | ||
LaserJock | no, dude, really | 08:37 |
pygi | ah, well, two months without internet should settle everything :P | 08:37 |
LaserJock | in a way it's good to have this now | 08:37 |
LaserJock | rather then when we actually *had* a release :-) | 08:37 |
Amaranth | The other gallium project is dead | 08:38 |
Amaranth | starting in 01 and has no code available | 08:38 |
pygi | Amaranth: some guy in comments is talking about some personal branch or whateva | 08:39 |
pygi | http://www.progbox.co.uk/gallium/ | 08:39 |
Amaranth | that's my code | 08:40 |
Amaranth | back later | 08:40 |
=== pygi smells a bad mail server since still no Laser's mail | ||

HedgeMage | hi cbx33 | 11:01 |
cbx33 | hi hedgemage | 11:02 |
LaserJock | hi cbx33 | 11:06 |
LaserJock | cbx33: do you know c++? | 11:06 |
cbx33 | little | 11:07 |
cbx33 | and only in windows environment | 11:08 |
LaserJock | well, gallium is no more | 11:08 |
LaserJock | we had a good talk | 11:08 |
LaserJock | and the periodic table in gchemutils is more developed | 11:09 |
cbx33 | ok, i'll delete my repo | 11:09 |
LaserJock | and is pretty well established in the chemistry software world | 11:09 |
LaserJock | I do think we should continue working on this idea though | 11:09 |
cbx33 | why didn't we know about it? | 11:10 |
LaserJock | well | 11:10 |
LaserJock | I knew of gchemutils | 11:10 |
LaserJock | but I didn't know they had a full periodic table | 11:10 |
LaserJock | and they've had a hard time getting it in the repos | 11:10 |
cbx33 | in what way continue | 11:10 |
LaserJock | because of various deps, etc. | 11:11 |
cbx33 | ahhhh | 11:11 |
LaserJock | it's in now | 11:11 |
LaserJock | but it was a bit of a process | 11:11 |
cbx33 | cooool | 11:11 |
LaserJock | so I didn't look into it much | 11:11 |
cbx33 | ok | 11:11 |
LaserJock | but it is a more complete chemistry package | 11:11 |
LaserJock | which I think would be really good for Edubuntu | 11:11 |
LaserJock | and apparently it is done by on that one dev | 11:12 |
cbx33 | ok | 11:12 |
