| Lns | Does anyone know the FF equiv. to IE's .URL shortcut/launcher/whatever? | 00:03 |
|---|---|---|
| HedgeMage | Lns: I'm not sure what that is -- I haven't used Windoze in over 10 years -- but if you describe it I might know. | 00:14 |
| stgraber | hi HedgeMage | 00:15 |
| HedgeMage | hi, stgraber | 00:15 |
| stgraber | HedgeMage: you are the owner of the edubuntu-handbook team. We are currently trying to change team ownership for edubuntu-* to the edubuntu-council. | 00:16 |
| stgraber | Could you change edubuntu-handbook's owner to edubuntu-council ? (Of course, you'll remain administrator of the team, it's just to add some central management of teams) | 00:16 |
| Lns | HedgeMage: well it's in linux, i just have a teacher who has tons of windows IE .url files she wants to migrate to linux/FF. I think I can work it with a script though, native linux ff will create a .desktop launcher | 00:18 |
| stgraber | Lns: I belive we did something for that at Revolution Linux, let me try to find the LP project | 00:18 |
| stgraber | (I'm not sure it actually works though) | 00:19 |
| Lns | stgraber: woo! well any tidbits would be helpful anyway =) thx | 00:19 |
| sbalneav | Evening all | 00:20 |
| HedgeMage | stgraber: I will if you remind me tonight after my son goes to bed (in about 10 minutes). | 00:20 |
| HedgeMage | stgraber: I don't have time before I tuck him in. | 00:20 |
| HedgeMage | brb | 00:20 |
| sbalneav | Lns: I think you can convert them to .desktop files | 00:20 |
| stgraber | Lns: https://edge.launchpad.net/url-launcher | 00:20 |
| Lns | stgraber: woohoo! =) | 00:21 |
| * Lns starts digging | 00:21 | |
| stgraber | Lns: I believe we were having some issues associating .url files with that script, maybe it got fixed in the mean time though | 00:21 |
| Lns | hrm...well this is potentially a one time conversion so i'm not too worried, i might end up whipping up of my own | 00:22 |
| Lns | stgraber: cheers! I need to go but i'll be looking at it either tomorrow or next week. Thx! you guys rock @RL. | 01:02 |
| * Lns wave | 01:02 | |
| stgraber | HedgeMage: ping | 01:17 |
| HedgeMage | stgraber: pong | 01:24 |
| HedgeMage | You wanted me to do something on LP, didn't you... | 01:24 |
| HedgeMage | stgraber: Change ownership of edubuntu handbook to...? | 01:24 |
| * sbalneav perks up ears? | 01:26 | |
| HedgeMage | stgraber: edubuntu-council, if my scrollback doesn't lie | 01:27 |
| HedgeMage | sbalneav: they are just consolidating some ownership stuff. | 01:27 |
| stgraber | sorry, was watching TV :) | 01:29 |
| sbalneav | HedgeMage: lol | 01:29 |
| sbalneav | hey before you transfer ownership | 01:29 |
| sbalneav | can you add me as a member? | 01:29 |
| sbalneav | cripes, I've been working on it for 2 years now, and I'm not even a member | 01:29 |
| HedgeMage | sbalneav: sure, I have to clean up pending requests in general... neither Mario nor I have much time for this these days. | 01:30 |
| stgraber | sbalneav: she can still do it afterwards ;) (but then all of the EC can as well) | 01:30 |
| HedgeMage | sbalneav: If Mario has no issue, may I add you as an admin since you are around more for day-to-day stuff? | 01:30 |
| sbalneav | Sure. | 01:30 |
| HedgeMage | sbalneav: cool, I want to give him a heads-up first, but I doubt he'll mind | 01:31 |
| sbalneav | and soon (if people vote for me that is :( ) I'll be ec. | 01:31 |
| stgraber | sbalneav: I don't see why someone wouldn't vote for you ;) | 01:31 |
| sbalneav | Cuz I'm fat and ugly and a jerk? :) | 01:32 |
| HedgeMage | sbalneav: Did you apply? I don't see you on the list (unless I just don't recognize the name you use) | 01:32 |
| sbalneav | I'm trying to figure out how to apply now | 01:32 |
| HedgeMage | what is your name on launchpad? I can just add you manually I think. | 01:32 |
| sbalneav | There, I think I did it. | 01:32 |
| sbalneav | sbalneav | 01:32 |
| HedgeMage | cool | 01:33 |
| sbalneav | I'm nothing if not unimagini^H^H^H^H^H^Hconsistent | 01:33 |
| stgraber | HedgeMage: thanks | 01:34 |
| HedgeMage | stgraber: np | 01:34 |
| sbalneav | HedgeMage: "former military spouse", is that (former military) spouse, or former (military) spouse? Sorry, just reading your blog. | 01:35 |
| HedgeMage | sbalneav: He got out of the military shortly after we separated, so both. | 01:37 |
| HedgeMage | or neither...depending on how you look at it :) | 01:37 |
| sbalneav | ah | 01:37 |
| sbalneav | nice bit on the kindle | 01:38 |
| HedgeMage | Thanks | 01:38 |
| HedgeMage | I really like the iRex as an alternative -- it runs embedded Linux, so not only is it more open now, but I can code for it and make it support new open formats in the future. | 01:39 |
| sbalneav | So, you use drupal? I've got a host provider. Do you need root access to install drupal if you've only got non-root-shell access to a host? | 01:39 |
| HedgeMage | I work on Drupal for a living. You do not need root access to install. You technically don't even need shell, but it makes life a lot easier. | 01:40 |
| HedgeMage | It's a fantastic system. :) | 01:40 |
| HedgeMage | sbalneav: may I pm you? | 01:42 |
| sbalneav | Absolutely!!!! | 01:42 |
| sbalneav | sbalneav@jabber.org | 01:42 |
| sbalneav | that consistency thing :) | 01:42 |
| HedgeMage | :D | 01:42 |
| sbalneav | or, here on irc | 01:43 |
| sbalneav | whichever you prefer | 01:43 |
| stgraber | sbalneav: wrong jabber account, adding with the right one now ;) | 01:46 |
| stgraber | sbalneav: (you may find some consistency in that account name as well ;)) | 01:47 |
| HedgeMage | hehe :) | 01:50 |
| HedgeMage | stgraber: mind adding me as well? hedgemage@jabber.binaryredneck.net | 01:50 |
| sbalneav | brb... | 01:52 |
| HedgeMage | ok :) | 01:52 |
| HedgeMage | sbalneav or stgraber : will someone please IM me on Jabber right now. I changed my icon set and i want to see if this one makes it suitably obvious when I recieve a message while the client is minimized. | 03:08 |

| stgraber | sbalneav: poked you on jabber. | 15:25 |
| stgraber | ls | 15:39 |
| stgraber | oops | 15:39 |
| stgraber | dinda: ping | 15:39 |
| stgraber | dinda: looks like the schedule didn't get updated for the edubuntu session, you're marked as essential but it's still on friday morning | 15:40 |
| dinda | stgraber: pong | 15:40 |
| dinda | stgraber: I think they run the scheduler daily so we can probably ask jcastro to adjust if needed | 15:40 |
| alkisg | sbalneav: ping? | 16:35 |
| alkisg | (or stgraber :)) | 16:35 |
| alkisg | or highvoltage :) :) | 16:36 |
| alkisg | I'd like to apply for the EC, but I don't have access to the wiki page. Could somebody put up my name there? | 16:37 |
| alkisg | Launchpad: https://launchpad.net/~alkisg - Wiki: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AlkisGeorgopoulos | 16:37 |
| sbalneav | alkisg: pong | 16:38 |
| alkisg | Hi sbalneav | 16:39 |
| alkisg | Sorry, never mind, /me blushes, I had to login first :( | 16:39 |
| sbalneav | alkisg: You've got a lunchpod account, don't you? I think that's all you need. | 16:39 |
| sbalneav | there you go | 16:39 |
| alkisg | (I'm always logged on launchpad & wiki, and it didn't even cross my mind that this is a seperate domain :)) | 16:39 |
| sbalneav | Hmmm, I'm trying to fix my favorite cups bug | 17:17 |
| sbalneav | the cups-1.4.1 package uses dpatch, so the patches in debian/patches are .dpatch, not .patch | 17:18 |
| sbalneav | I'm familiar with cdbs-edit-patch, how do I create .dpatches to put in there? | 17:18 |
| sbalneav | ah | 17:19 |
| sbalneav | dpatch-edit-patch? | 17:20 |
| sbalneav | yeah | 17:20 |
| sbalneav | nm | 17:20 |
| * Lns can't edit https://wiki.edubuntu.org/Edubuntu/Council/Election to put his blurb up :( | 17:39 | |
| jbicha | Lns: did you try logging in? | 17:41 |
| Lns | jbicha: yeah, to ubuntu.com anyway | 17:41 |
| Lns | couldn't find a login page for edubuntu.org | 17:41 |
| jbicha | at the top right on the page you just linked | 17:42 |
| Lns | baaa hahaha..thanks =) i'm blind apparently | 17:42 |
| jbicha | no, that's just how we weed out those unqualified for EC :-) | 17:43 |
| jbicha | too bad I can't vote, I guess I'll just have to accomplish great things so I can be a Member before the next elections | 17:45 |
| sbalneav | jbicha: You're well on the way, I'd say. | 17:45 |
| sbalneav | Fixing moodle was no mean feat. | 17:46 |
| sbalneav | I'd definitely want you for an edubuntu member, and in edubuntu-dev | 17:46 |
| jbicha | it's too early for me still | 17:46 |
| jbicha | I could join edubuntu-dev though if the entry threshold isn't too high | 17:48 |
| sbalneav | Well, I think edubuntu-dev's no problem. It would give you access to the ppa's where we seem to agree that edubuntu patches should be accreted. | 17:49 |
| jbicha | hmm, edubuntu-dev is a "restricted" team instead of moderated so I can't even apply directly | 17:50 |
| alkisg | I think applications for edubuntu-dev go to the meeting agenta... | 17:52 |
| jbicha | oh ok | 17:55 |
| Lns | i can't believe it, i missed the meeting didn't i | 19:05 |
| sbalneav | Lns: it was yesterday | 19:06 |
| sbalneav | :) | 19:06 |
| sbalneav | In terms of the timescale of the length the universe has been around, you pretty much hit it dead on! | 19:06 |
| Lns | what?? I thought it was always on friday | 19:07 |
| Lns | :( | 19:07 |
| sbalneav | It was posted on the mailing list | 19:07 |
| sbalneav | friday didn't suit some people | 19:08 |
| Lns | i know! i saw it...oh. | 19:08 |
| sbalneav | it's ok | 19:08 |
| Lns | maybe i haven't caught up with it | 19:08 |
| Lns | not a good thing for someone running for EC | 19:09 |
| sbalneav | meh | 19:11 |
| sbalneav | we're a pretty loosely run org | 19:11 |
| sbalneav | I wouldn't worry :) | 19:11 |
| Lns | haha, ok | 19:12 |
| Lns | have you guys seen my latest video (not totally finished but pretty much done) regarding "open source thin clients in school" ? | 19:13 |
| Lns | http://logicalnetworking.net/other/linux-thinclients-in-education.mov | 19:15 |
| jbicha | Lns: if you're bored, you can read the meeting log http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2009/11/12/%23ubuntu-meeting.txt | 19:21 |
| Lns | thanks jbicha | 19:33 |

| Lns | Just got done w/the meeting logs | 23:36 |
| Lns | welcome nubae (if he were here) =) | 23:36 |
| Lns | stgraber: can you explain what exactly is required of an EC member? I'm very new to the organization of these types of groups (have no experience really)..if I'm going to apply I don't want to be elected and then have it be over my head / too much time consuming for me to handle. | 23:39 |
