[01:32] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpSamba <-- This page recommends that a user uses ftp for sharing files between linux computers.. It should recommend ssh instead. [02:31] XiXaQ: sftp you mean, I imagine (well, scp would work too). Go ahead and change it. [02:34] I can't change that? [02:37] Flannel, can I? How do I do so? [02:37] XiXaQ: Do you have a launchpad ID? [02:38] yes. [02:38] I know how to modify pages on the wiki, but I thought the help.ubuntu.com was restricted? [02:39] XiXaQ: help.ubuntu.com is, the community section isn't, no. [02:39] oh, ok. [02:50] Flannel, how do I make a url? I'm linking to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto, but I'd like it to say "See SSHHowto" instead of the complete url. [02:53] well. It's not very important. Only cosmetic :) [02:54] XiXaQ: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HelpOnLinking see the bottom-ish for examples [02:54] well. I tried using the wikiname, but that wouldn't work? [02:55] that is, I used SSHHowto. [10:39] XiXaQ: you use: "See [[SSHHowto]]" [10:40] XiXaQ: you should definitely read the page which Flannel showed you about how to link, it's very useful [12:28] cody-somerville: I'd like to remove the firefox-homepage and firefox-homepage-locales alternatives. Since 8.04 firefox has no longer used them (using ubufox instead for getting the startpage address). I don't think kubuntu uses them. Does xubuntu use them at all? [12:29] cody-somerville: assuming xubuntu uses firefox, I think the answer must be "no" but I wanted to check [12:39] cody-somerville: I've posted more detail to -devel, let me know if it affects xubuntu at all [13:56] shall we translate "Yelp Help Browser" in user-guide ? or keep it as it is [14:49] Syntux: yes, you can translate anything which is inside a tag, you just shouldn't translate the tag itself [14:52] lovely. [14:52] Syntux: have a look at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DocumentationTeam/Translation for some more detailed guidance [14:53] Thanks [15:17] Syntux: oh, one other thing - if you are translating the user-guide, try and contribute your translations upstream too, Ubuntu receives those translations along with other distributions [15:18] mdke, by exporting and uploading to .po to upstream ? [15:28] Syntux: sure, or by just doing the translation directly with the upstream po file [15:28] and then uploading that to Launchpad, if necessary [15:29] mdke, hmm so the nice rosseta isn't usable here :-) [15:32] Syntux: that's true. You can work in Rosetta and send the po file exported from that to upstream, they can merge it [15:32] there should be a way to automate this, only then using Rosetta can be meaningful :-) [15:34] yes, I'm sure the Rosetta developers are very aware of that [15:38] I'll see if I can contribute something in that arena, Thank you mdke :-) [15:39] np [18:06] mdke, we do [20:05] hey [20:05] Hello [20:07] is the system documentation on launchpad? [20:08] I want to make a OOBE branch [20:09] https://launchpad.net/ubuntu-doc [20:09] :P [21:06] so there is an OOBE ish thing [21:11] okay [21:11] it needs to be prettier [21:22] anyone here? [22:53] cody-somerville: in what way is it used? firefox can't use it, I don't think [22:53] I think it is going to the Ubuntu page now [22:53] I need to see how it is working now [22:56] cody-somerville: does xubuntu use firefox? [22:56] yes [22:57] cody-somerville: the same firefox as ubuntu, not a customised version? [22:57] I believe so. [22:57] ok, in that case it's not using the alternatives [22:57] firefox gets its startpage from the ubufox package [22:58] so you'd need an xubufox in order to customise the homepage [23:12] Yes [23:13] I don't really remember being alerted to that change, fyi [23:13] cody-somerville: I made a similar point to asac during the last release cycle when he implemented it; but he said that he had raised it on a mailing list. I can't remember exactly the details [23:14] I guess it was specced out at a conference [23:14] anyhow, let me know if you have any issues about removing the alternatives [23:15] but I think as long as you are using firefox, they don't make a difference [23:15] I was just making sure there isn't some browser out there using them [23:15] Okay, sounds good. [23:15] feel free to approach asac about creating an xubufox, I suspect he would be happy to help [23:25] okay [23:25] where can I find the XML file that defines the "home page" of the help system [23:25] I want to use it as a base from my OOBE idea [23:54] <_MMA_> Would my assumption be correct in thinking that people on the doc team and in this channel are responsible for this page: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat#Channels ? [23:55] <_MMA_> I'd like #ubuntustudio-devel added to the "Team channels" section. [23:56] <_MMA_> With "luisbg" as the "Contact person".
