nixternalor the preparing.xml bug :)03:24
nixternalthe preparing one is nasty, but if you remember you and LaserJock told me about how evil xreflabels were, so I replaced everyone of them in Kubuntu docs03:25
mdkenixternal: the former.03:26
nixternalya, I don't have either of those files, so Kubuntu is good03:26

LaserJockI suppose09:32
LaserJockI'm home sick09:32
mdkehow come?09:32
LaserJockI've got a cold09:32
mdkeI mean, why aren't you home?09:33
LaserJockI am09:33
mdkeah09:33
mdke"I'm home, sick" as opposed to "I'm homesick"09:33
LaserJockI'm at home, sick09:33
mdkedoh09:33
LaserJocksorry09:33
mdkemy bad :)09:33
mdkeget better soon09:33
LaserJockI think I managed to get edubuntu-docs in decent shape with sbalneav's help09:34
mdkeright09:34
mdkeby the way, I just got your email to the list about that today...09:34
mdkeit was dated quite a bit earlier, must be some list issues still09:34
LaserJockyeah09:34
mdkeI'll request an account for him09:34
LaserJockI just got it too09:34
LaserJockI think it was part of the lists.ubuntu.com problems lately09:35
LaserJockthat would be greatly appreciated09:35
LaserJockI even managed to get some .pots up09:35
mdkecool09:36
LaserJockhttps://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/feisty/+source/edubuntu-docs/+pots/09:36
mdkenice job09:36
LaserJockobviously not a lot of time for translation09:36
LaserJockbut the system's all there09:36
mdkeplenty of time for updates09:36
mdkeand next release will be super :)09:36
LaserJockyeah09:36
LaserJockyour yelp patch works wonderfully :-)09:36
mdkegood09:36
LaserJockthat's a big help09:36
mdkeI've broken the about-ubuntu panel entry with the last ubuntu-docs upload ;)09:37
mdkeseems that it needs the omf file to work09:37
LaserJockuh oh :-)09:37
mdkesimple fix, fortunately09:37
LaserJockman, I've realized a lot with edubuntu-docs how difficult all this stuff is09:38
LaserJocktranslations, yelp frontpage, etc.09:38
mdkenaahhh09:38
mdkeI would have thought the rest of Ubuntu is a lot harder!09:38
LaserJockI guess it depends09:39
mdkewhat's edubuntu-about.desktop?09:39
LaserJockI'll still think packaging "normal" stuff is easier09:39
LaserJockthat's the About Edubuntu menu entry09:39
LaserJockit sits next to the About Ubuntu one09:39
mdkethat doesn't get done in gnome-panel?09:39
LaserJocknope09:39
mdkehow is the Ubuntu one translated?09:39
LaserJockit's included in the gnome-panel translation09:40
LaserJockthe problem is that if it was in gnome-panel then it'd show up on Ubuntu user's machines too09:40
mdkehmm09:40
mdkeoh, right09:40
mdkegood job with that :)09:40
LaserJockand since it's part of Edubuntu docs I figured we should just do it09:41
LaserJocksooo, I had to figure out how to do it09:41
LaserJockso I got seb128 to add in a patch to gnome-panel to show it if edubuntu-docs was installed09:41
mdkealthough, the about-ubuntu entry only shows up if ubuntu-docs is installed, so it probably wouldn't be a problem to have it in gnome-panel too09:41
LaserJockand then manually made a pot for it09:42
LaserJockmdke: true, I just figured it made more sense to keep it in edubuntu-docs09:42
=== mdke nods
LaserJockI don't like having stuff scattered around09:42
LaserJockit's more difficult for people to find09:42
mdkeprobably more sensible than the way about-ubuntu is done09:42
mdkeit can't take the string from an existing one, like the omf file?09:43
mdketo save you having a separate pot template09:43
LaserJockhmmm09:43
LaserJockthere are only 2 strings in it09:43
LaserJock1 is a dup, since it's just "About Edubuntu"09:44
LaserJockbut the other one is probably not09:44
LaserJockbut yeah, I hadn't thought of grabing the string from somewhere else09:44
LaserJockalthough ...09:44
LaserJockthe cool think about the .desktop is I don't have to bring the translations back in09:44
LaserJockthe translations will go into the lang packs09:45
mdkeah, nice yeah09:45
mdkebut then again, you have to do it for the omf file anyway ;)09:45
LaserJockso I just install the English file09:45
LaserJockyeah09:46
LaserJockthis translation stuff is still very new to me09:47
LaserJockI wish I was even the slightest bit bilingual09:48
mdkeI'm not sure that's possible09:49
mdke:p09:49
LaserJockI gotta try to get some Spanish in before UDS ;-)09:53
nixternaluno mas por favor09:53
LaserJockhehe, I know that one09:54
nixternalya, Mexico is my second home, and I took Spanish in highschool and grew up around latinos, so I can understand it and speak a lil bit09:54
mdkenixternal from the block09:54
nixternalhaha yes09:55
nixternalin my ghetto, or hood09:55
LaserJockwell, I didn't grow up with a lot of "diversity" in the backwoods of Montana09:55
j0hndeereyo quiero tacos09:55
nixternaloh no you didn't09:55
j0hndeere...that's about all the Espanol I know.09:55
LaserJockbut here in Nevada there's a lot of Spanish speakers09:55
nixternalman, I have a talk to give at UIC tomorrow, and then I somehow got involved in the battle of the distros09:55
LaserJocksweet09:56
nixternalmy botd though, my starting line will own um all09:56
LaserJockUbuntu vs * ?09:56
nixternalFedora, SUSE, Gentoo, Linspire, Slackware...09:56
nixternalFedora and them will hit the "Ubuntu isn't FREE"09:56
nixternalso because of that, I have the "who in here has a ton of mp3's? uses and loves Google?"09:56
nixternalyou know all of those who use the Ubuntu is not FREE will raise their hands09:57
nixternalas soon as they do, they are toast, it works every time09:57
j0hndeerethe linux distros need to call off their own bickering if they wish to not be crushed by microsoft, IMO09:57
LaserJockUbuntu's as Free as you want it to be09:57
LaserJockthat's the coolest part09:57
nixternalthis time though I have to start out with "my apologies for this one Chris" as DiBona will be there watchin'09:57
nixternalthere will be no crushing by Microsoft. What Linux distros need to do is continue the bickering, but get rid of the mindset that Linux will not be mainstream09:58
LaserJockI'd think Suse would be the only big competition09:58
nixternalthe bickering leads to improvements. you want to see bickering, work with Microsoft for a week09:58
LaserJockFedora just doesn't work very well09:58
nixternalwell, Fedora 7 is nice09:58
LaserJockGentoo takes too much time09:58
LaserJockSlackware is a throw-back09:59
LaserJockand Linspire ...09:59
nixternalhey now, Slackware will always be my favorite I think09:59
nixternalhehe09:59
nixternalya, I am going to do "and Linspire..." and just start laughing hard09:59
nixternalI doubt anyone will be batteling for Linspire, but what I may do is say "Linspire, it is OK, let papa Ubuntu take you under our wing"10:00
LaserJockI've never tried Slackware, and probably never will10:00
nixternalya, it takes some work10:00

nixternalbut making a tgz is a heck of a lot easier than making .deb10:00
LaserJockyeah, but that's why people like me exist10:01
nixternalsee, another thing people tend to forget about with Ubuntu, is we fulfill 4 niches10:01
nixternalno other distro does that10:01
LaserJockto make the .debs for people10:01
nixternalgood, you can start making my .debs :)10:01
nixternalwe fulfill 4 niches ootb with 3 DEs10:02
LaserJockI said for "people" not Chitown distro mobsters ;-)10:02
nixternalhaha10:02
nixternaltomorrow is going to be classic, we have a couple of hundred people meeting up at the 2600 hacking location, then walking over gangster style10:03
nixternalUbuntu representation right now at the event, is easily 50 to 110:03
LaserJock"Ya gonna use Ubuntu, or I'll hav Tony here wack ya"10:03
nixternalmy eyes in the sky are like this is an Ubuntu event, nobody cares about anything else10:03
nixternalit is whack btw ;p10:03
nixternalsomeone corrected me not even 2 hours ago10:04
LaserJockwell, I was going to say "ice ya" that would have been better10:04
nixternalhahah10:04
nixternalthe only thing I have yet to figure out, is with my laptop, native is 1280x80010:04
nixternalwhen I do presentations, the output is the same, and a majority of projectors don't display the entire screen10:05
nixternalI have tried to setup both Ubuntu and Kubuntu to display on the 2nd monitor at 1024x768 and it just will not do it10:05
LaserJockso can you switch your laptop to 1024x768?10:06
nixternalyup10:06

nixternalI could do that and live with the ugliness I guess10:06
