stevepearcefirst of all, many thanks for the invitation.00:00
BUGabundohey steve00:00
stevepearceI am experiencing an problem that prevents me from being able to add a device to my account.00:00
BUGabundohey stevepearce00:00
stevepearcehello BUGabundo00:01
stevepearcebasically, the panel applet launches (as in the process is running), but it doesn't launch Firefox.00:01
stevepearcestage 3 in the installation instructions00:02
stevepearceim curious as to whether this is a bug, or my system is set up incorrectly.00:02
stevepearceas far as I am aware, Gnome uses Firefox as it's prefered application for launching urls.00:03
stevepearcelaunching the service from the terminal (after killing it) doesn't provide any output.00:04
OceanwatcherReally disappointed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! UbuntuOne install procedure installed a bunch of stuff I never asked for nor wanted. Please help me get it out!!! This is a complete NO NO!00:07
OceanwatcherI got an invitation today and clicked to install the PPA. Nothing fancy about that, I have installed several PPA's myself and thought they might have a smart way of doint it.00:08
OceanwatcherI got a deb package that I then proceeded to install, and when it was finished looked around to find the program/client for it. I found a "Program" called software sources and I found Synaptic package manager. Strange, since I did not install it, do not need it and most of all do want it!00:10
OceanwatcherI am using Kubuntu and do not want any extra Gnome stuff on my laptop.00:10
OceanwatcherYes, I know they can happily coexist. But why should I? I have apt-get and I am perfectly able to use it.00:11
OceanwatcherWhy did I not get any questions if I wanted to install all this? No warnings at all. I was led to believe that I was adding a PPA!!00:12
stevepearceI am also experiencing some interesting folder duplication problems with the web management client00:35
* stevepearce takes notes and creates screenshots00:35
stevepearceit seems if I create several new folders, and then click away from them, each folder in that directory is duplicated.00:36
stevepearceseeing as I cannot yet use the ubuntuone-client-applet, I can't see if these folders are "real".00:38
stevepearceoh, it seems that is a known issue (just read the welcoming email)00:49
stevepearceregarding the client, is it compatible only with 32bit Ubuntu installations?01:02
stevepearceim running 64bit, could that be the problem?01:02
bannyI can't get Ubuntu one to start.  Nothing in notification tray and firefox don't start01:55
bannyprocess' shows it started01:55
bannyany help01:56
bannyI also tried from terminal, it doesn't work there either01:57
curiouscathello05:16
curiouscati just installed the ubuntuone applet, but when I run it, it doesn't show the site that would add my computer.05:17

packet-sentIs there any magic needed to get the ubuntu0ne-client-applet to pop up ?  mine seems shy........13:12
lamalexjust give it a couple or drinks13:21
sladenpacket-sent: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntuone-client/+filebug  if enough people file dups, that bug might get worked up13:22
stevepearcesladen, is filling duplicate bugs a good idea? all of the problems I have experienced  so far are known issues.14:28
sladenstevepearce: there's two schools of thought;  personally I prefer to have duplicates as I get several _independent_ reports (some of which might indentical little important details missed by other reporteres) rather tan just having me weigh in "me too!" when they might well have something else14:32
stevepearceok14:33
BUGabundosladen: why not complete the already existing reports?14:33
BUGabundosure me toos don't help14:33
sladenstevepearce: eg. I used to do quite a bit of work on laptops and "my computer doesn't suspend" is a different issue if one is a Compaq CQ27 and the other is an IBM-12314:33
BUGabundobut dupes just increase load on devs14:33
BUGabundosladen: sure... that's Kernel bugs, which are usually HW bugs, so even though14:34
BUGabundothe prob seems the same, the cause can and usually is on very diff place14:34
sladenstevepearce: the other school of thought is to concentrate comments in one place (which is why you are offered a listed of suspect similar issues when reporting a bug).  In this case, the minimum you should do is state that you also have the problem and click the "affects me too" box at the top14:35
stevepearceok14:35
sladenstevepearce: personally, I find the "this bug has 14 duplicates" is a fairly good hammer to hit somebody with if they're hestitatnt about fixing something.  But whatever you do just remain silent in the blind presumption that it's important enough that it'll fix itself14:36
sladen*don't* just remain...14:37
BUGabundosladen: +114:38
BUGabundoppl must put into their heads that they need to report probs!14:38
BUGabundoassuming every, even easy,small , bug is known is a bad idea14:39

infamy_Can anyone tell me why the ubuntuone server code remains proprietary?19:53
BUGabundoinfamy_: €€€€€€19:54
infamy_Hm19:54
sladeninfamy_: Mark's choice.  Since Mark puts alot of money into Ubuntu and its infrastructure, one generally has to accept it19:55
sladeninfamy_: if the server software comes with a licence that you don't agree with, just don't use it19:56
howefieldsladen: spot on19:56
infamy_Heh, that is exactly it, I can't find the server software period, is it available?19:56

infamy_Right, my point exactly19:57
infamy_Oh well19:57
* Nafallo doesn't really see the point, but oh well :-)19:57
sladeninfamy_: if you're interested in whats there, I've tried to provide somekind of overview at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuOne#Technical%20details19:57
infamy_The point being that you can't host your own19:58
infamy_Nor can it be improved by the community19:58
