stgraberjust wanted to know what exactly is the policy for post-beta uploads. I have a change for iTalc which will fix an icon bug in the remote exec window and a small string fix (one word).18:14
stgraberIs there some kind of problem with doc/UI freeze ? (it's a fix as currently the text is almost impossible to read due to the icon overlapping it)18:14
ogra_cmpci doubt italc is documented anywhere yet18:15
ogra_cmpcso it should be fine, even though we might want to ping the docteam18:15
highvoltagehey ogra_cmpc18:26
ogra_cmpchighvolt1ge, hey, new zsyncable classmate images are up  :)18:27
ogra_cmpcand i've polished the pacge a bit on http://people.ubuntu.com/~ogra/classmate/images/hardy/18:27
highvoltageogra_cmpc: great. I'll get them now, I still have the one that had the broken X installed18:27
ogra_cmpcthe latest one has the new artwork :)18:28
ogra_cmpcits worth a look18:28
ogra_cmpcand language selection :)18:28
ogra_cmpczsync should help a lot with bandwith issues18:28
highvoltageogra_cmpc: what would I need to download? all the syncs since the .12 version?18:29
highvoltageogra_cmpc: oh definitely, I see the zsync files are nice and small!18:29
highvoltageI could even manage that over GPRS if I /had/ to.18:29
ogra_cmpcwell, it operates like rsync, it still downloads parts of the new image to merge18:29
ogra_cmpcso some MB will still go over your line18:30
highvoltageah18:31
highvoltagedo I need to download all the sync files, or just the latest one?18:31
ogra_cmpcyou need an existing img file and run zsync as described on the page above18:38
ogra_cmpc(with the url to the .zsync file as argument)18:39
highvoltaged'oh! I missed the instructions above, I always scroll down to the juicy bits too quickly.18:40
highvoltagesyncing to 13'th18:42
ogra_cmpcwhy not directly to the 18th ?18:50
daSKreech_Any one going to the Cz Rep ?18:56
ogra_cmpcdaSKreech_, i will, riched as well and i think moquist19:01
daSKreech_Cool :-)19:02
stgraberI'll do but only for FOSSCamp, got exams the week after19:02
stgrabers/do//19:03
daSKreech_did anyone invite annma?19:04
ogra_cmpcdaSKreech_, that would be a question for riched ...19:05

highvoltageogra_cmpc: the first one worked... now syncing to 1819:33
highvoltageogra_cmpc: this works very nicely :)19:33
ogra_cmpcgret19:33
ogra_cmpci must admit i actually havent tested it yet :)19:34
highvoltageit even verifies that it got the correct image after syncing19:34
ogra_cmpchow much did it download between two images ?19:34
highvoltagelet me check if it said...19:34
highvoltageit couldn't have been too much, since it only took about 15 minutes19:34
ogra_cmpcnice19:34
highvoltageand at the guest house I'm staying at we only have 384kbps dsl19:34
highvoltageand it's shared between 11 people :)19:35
ogra_cmpcphew19:35
ogra_cmpcsounds busy19:35
stgraberthe good old 56kbps suddenly becomes fast :)19:35
highvoltagenot sure if everyone uses it though: #################### 100.0% 37.8 kBps DONE19:35
highvoltageI got 37.8kbps average, which is close to the full 40kBps full speed19:36
highvoltagestgraber: heh19:36
highvoltageit's kind of sad, I have a 4mbps dsl line at home that's been unused for the last two months now19:36
highvoltageto the latest one seems that it will take a bit longer: ################---- 83.6% 33.1 kBps 78:43 ETA19:37
ogra_cmpcset up a server machine and ssh into it :)19:37
stgraberogra_cmpc: oh btw, I'll soon get a decent upload too :) 25Mb/2.5Mb exactly what I need to use my remote package builder :)19:37
ogra_cmpcwow19:37
highvoltagebut certainly a *massive* improvement to downloading entire images19:37
ogra_cmpc25M is quite cool19:37
highvoltagestgraber: *drool*19:37
highvoltagestgraber: 2.5Mb up?19:37
highvoltagestgraber: that's not DSL, is it?19:37
stgraberthat's cable19:38
* ogra_cmpc has 2M up19:38
ogra_cmpcSDSL19:38
johnnyis this channel going to ultimately redirect to #ubuntu?19:38
highvoltageoh cool. we don't even have cable here.19:38
highvoltagejohnny: nope, why should it?19:38
ogra_cmpcjohnny, ugh, why should we ?19:38
ogra_cmpcsnap19:38
highvoltage:)19:38
stgraberjohnny: nope why would you want that ?19:38
stgraber(just to add one more :))19:38
johnnyjust wondering, since it will be ubuntu with educational addons or whatever19:39
johnnyvs edubuntu19:39
highvoltagehope we haven't scared johnny away :)19:39
ogra_cmpcedubuntu will persist as brand19:39
johnnyi think the topic should point people for help in #ubuntu if they can't find it here19:39
ogra_cmpcand always be part of the edu addon19:39
johnnyunless it' with the addons19:40
highvoltagejohnny: yes indeed, for generic ubuntu help, #ubuntu is the right channel19:40
ogra_cmpcthats what we usually do19:40
johnnybut put it in the topic19:40
* ogra_cmpc perfers human interaction19:40
johnnybut humans aren't always here :)19:40
highvoltagenot!?19:40
ogra_cmpcthats something visitors usually grasp19:40
highvoltagehmm, we'll have to fix that.19:40
ogra_cmpcif there is nobody here19:40
stgraberogra_cmpc: btw, are we supposed to redirect people looking for LTSP help ? (as it's now part of ubuntu alternate and not edubuntu)19:41
johnnyhmm.. #ubuntu is really too big tho..19:41
johnnyi hate #ubuntu personally19:41
johnnyi never get help there19:41
highvoltageimho people should still be able to expect ltsp help from #edubuntu still19:41
johnnyi usually have to go ask a gentoo person person19:41
* stgraber too, haven't joined it for years :)19:41
ogra_cmpcthe topic is full enough, and from time to time i personally like to do basic support fro actual #ubuntu questions19:41
johnnyand pretend i'm using gentoo19:41
highvoltagejohnny: you're quite right, #ubuntu is actually quite horrible, that is also something that needs to be fixed19:42
* ogra_cmpc was resident in #ubuntu for 1.5years ... doing daily support for at least 1-2h19:42
ogra_cmpci'm still logged in there constantly19:42
ogra_cmpcbut rarely read it19:42
highvoltageogra_cmpc: still now? wow. ogra FTW :)19:42
johnnyi'm too busy doing support for my other projects to help everybody using ubuntu :)19:42
ogra_cmpchighvolt1ge, its a good indicator if freenbode is still alive :P19:43
highvoltage#ubuntu has become too noisey, I also get highlited accidentally all the time when people press hi<tab>19:43
highvoltageogra_cmpc: heh19:43
ogra_cmpc"if all channels go quiet #ubuntu will still scroll"19:43
ogra_cmpc:)19:44
johnnyi don't think i've only gotten useful help in #ubuntu once, and that was quite some time ago.. the rest of the time, nobody knows anything19:44
johnnymy questions are usually too advanced for that channel i guess19:44
ogra_cmpcwell currently there are 1295 ppl in there19:45
ogra_cmpcthe time i was active there it were around 50019:45
pygiput a whole bunch of even most intelligent people in the room, and you'll get no answer/conclusion19:49

LaserJockogra_cmpc: still up?22:00
LaserJockmoquist: you around?22:33
Positronicif I have a question about edubuntu on powerPCs would I go here or the PPC channel?22:36
moquistLaserJock: pongo22:36
moquistPositronic: probably PPC, but that's a guess. Depends on the question.22:37
LaserJockmoquist: mvo in #ubuntu-devel wants to talk to you about moodle22:37
moquistk; thx22:37
LaserJockmoquist: do an apt-cache show ucf to see what that is (I didn't know) :-)22:41
