[10:09] <oldmanstan> anybody around who can answer a question?
[10:32] <nixternal> whats up oldmanstan?
[10:32] <oldmanstan> oh hello
[10:33] <nixternal> oh oh oh
[10:33] <oldmanstan> i'm working on the printing doc for xubuntu and i'm stuck on the network printing section, there doesn't seem to be a good, consistent way of setting up a network printer in xubuntu
[10:33] <oldmanstan> so i want to know if it would be kosher to just tell people to install gnome-cups-manager
[10:33] <oldmanstan> and have them do it that way
[10:34] <nixternal> you should ask a Xubuntu dev about that one
[10:34] <nixternal> what does Xubuntu use for Print Management?
[10:35] <nixternal> I figured they would have used g-cups-mgr
[10:35] <oldmanstan> no, xubuntu has its own gui
[10:35] <oldmanstan> different from the xfce and ubuntu guis
[10:35] <nixternal> ahh, well then, try and find out from them how they would go about setting up a network printer and what they might use
[10:35] <oldmanstan> ok, cool
[10:36] <nixternal> probably go to the xubuntu-devel mailing list with that one...you might get the best response that way from devs
[10:37] <oldmanstan> oh ok, i just left a message on irc, i'll hit up the list in a second, right before you came back i'd emailed the doc list too, haha
[10:38] <nixternal> roger that
[10:44] <oldmanstan> problem solved
[10:45] <nixternal> that was fast
[10:46] <oldmanstan> yeah, someone got back to me on irc right away
[10:51] <oldmanstan> another question, better to tell people to install thing using command line or synaptic? command line seems more straightforward to me, but i dunno
[10:54] <nixternal> always go gui
[10:54] <nixternal> people who know how to use the command line will use it, those new to Xubuntu will more than likely only know pretty windows
[10:55] <oldmanstan> ahh, gotcha
[11:00] <Jman> \nick Jmanfoo
[11:01] <Jmanfoo> now that that's dealt with, are there any documentation projects for Kubuntu I could help with?
[11:02] <nixternal> Jmanfoo: what are you interested in?
[11:02] <nixternal> myself and jjesse are the 2 main kubuntu documentors
[11:03] <Jmanfoo> mainly network related stuff, and transitioning from windows to linux
[11:03] <nixternal> have you taken a look at the current network section in Kubuntu docs?
[11:03] <nixternal> I am sure that can use some fixing. Especially the wireless section I am sure
[11:04] <oldmanstan> nixternal: another thing, gnome-cups-manager doesn't create a menu entry in xubuntu, so it has to be run command line, alt-f2 the best way to describe it?
[11:04] <nixternal> umm, yes...I would probably file a bug though against that if it hasn't been already
[11:05] <Jmanfoo> hmm, there isn't much on networking here, at least what i'm seeing here https://help.ubuntu.com/6.10/kubuntu/desktopguide/C/networking.html
[11:05] <nixternal> we don't use the desktop guide anymore
[11:05] <nixternal> http://doc.ubuntu.com/kubuntu
[11:05] <nixternal> that is what is being built from our current svn repository
[11:06] <Jmanfoo> gotcha
[11:08] <oldmanstan> where exactly would i file that bug?  sorry, never done that b4, would it be on launchpad somewhere?
[11:09] <nixternal> yup
[11:09] <oldmanstan> i mean, i know where the bug stuff is on launchpad, but is there a set place to file for certain packages?
[11:09] <nixternal> you would file against gnome-cups-manager
[11:10] <nixternal> 85 g-c-m bugs...searching for menu related ones for g-c-m
[11:10] <nixternal> lovely, and lp just timedout
[11:10] <oldmanstan> yeah, me too
[11:29] <oldmanstan> haha oops, apparently it's already been fixed, but it calls the menu entry "Printing" exactly like the xubuntu printing icon, it just puts it in the system folder rather than settings
[11:37] <jjesse> evening
[11:37] <jjesse> was out grocery shoppoing
[11:37] <jjesse> shopping :)
[11:38] <nixternal> shop lifting!
[11:38] <jjesse> hey don't tell
[11:38] <nixternal> hehe, check this out
[11:38] <nixternal> 16:30:38 [  catisonh]  oh, so ubuntu isn't made by Microsoft?
[11:38] <jjesse> wow
[11:38] <jjesse> that's funny
[11:39] <nixternal> haha, I think the guy is a troll...there is no way someone is that far out of the loop
