humphreybchiii everyone02:36
godbykhey, humphreybc.02:49
humphreybchow are we going? get some sleep?02:49
godbykyep, I got some sleep.02:50
godbyknow I have to decide if I'm going to just stay up 'til 1200UTC for my talk and then nap afterward or try to nap beforehand. :)02:50
humphreybcthat's what i have to decide. go to bed and wake up at 3am, then stay up for the rest of the day, or stay up till 3am and push on all day with no sleep02:51
humphreybcthe second set of talks are on the same day as my first set... first set start at 4am tuesday, second set start at 5pm that same day. so i should probably get some sleep tonight :S02:51
humphreybcit's gonna be a LONG day tomorrow02:51
godbykagreed.02:52
humphreybcmight go to the supermarket and stock up on energy drinks03:47
humphreybci need to finish my slides03:47
godbykditto03:51
godbykgonna head to the grocery store, too.03:52
humphreybclol03:54
humphreybcit'll be interesting to see how many people actually show up to 48 hours03:54
humphreybcand also, _what_ types of people03:54
humphreybcgodbyk: i see your new "godbyk-android" handle, nice! I'll have a "humphreybc-android" handle later this week :P03:55
humphreybcgodbyk: i don't know how much of a music buff you are, but can android handle FLAC?03:56
godbykI'm not sure if it does FLAC or not, I haven't tried.03:56
humphreybcbtw guys, some cool stuff... the manual was mentioned in the UK podcast last week, http://podcast.ubuntu-uk.org/04:00
humphreybc(see underneath the photo of the two boys, "Manual without jargon!"04:00
humphreybcand also, omgubuntu.co.uk is covering the 48 hours event live04:00
humphreybcJoey is putting up a banner on his site, he's already announced it today and tomorrow he'll join us in some sessions and do some live blogging of it :)04:01
humphreybcso no pressure on the teachers or anything xD04:01
godbykcool04:05
humphreybcgodbyk: i'm just pushing my new slides in the branch. could you add your slides and handout to it as well, and then host them all on your server?04:59
humphreybcplease :)04:59
godbyksure.05:06
godbykas soon as I finish my slides and handout. :-)05:06
jazzhello?05:21
jazzdoes this manual days begin now?05:24
jazzhello?05:37
godbykjazz: Hey.05:46
godbykThe 48-hours sessions will be starting at 1500 UTC.05:46
* humphreybc is proud to present the new branding for UMP: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-manual05:56
IlyaHaykinson2hm. i like, but what happens when the title page changes?06:01
=== IlyaHaykinson2 is now known as IlyaHaykinson_
humphreybcIlyaHaykinson I can just change them in the PSD source file pretty easily06:04
humphreybcyes it's a well known fact I use photoshop :)06:05
IlyaHaykinson_certainly; i'm not saying it's not possible. just seems time-intensive -- iconography is usually a bit less specific06:07
humphreybcyeah i couldn't think of anything else06:11
humphreybc:)06:11
humphreybcit's certainly a higher quality icon than last time :P06:16
IlyaHaykinson_heh. true.06:21
IlyaHaykinson_*sigh* i'm always so bummed out after browsing a photo store's website. the lenses i want are soooo expensive.06:22
humphreybcheh06:22
humphreybcwhat lenses do you want?06:22
humphreybci did some new portraits yesterday, last 8 photos on this page: http://www.interesting.co.nz/portrait.html06:23
IlyaHaykinson_some nice wide-angle ones. 14mm or so.06:23
humphreybc(with my new lens)06:23
IlyaHaykinson_nice. you shoot canon?06:25
humphreybcnope, sony :D06:26
humphreybcsony alpha06:26
IlyaHaykinson_ah.06:26
IlyaHaykinson_never played with it06:26
humphreybcsony alphas are pretty nice06:26
humphreybci've got an older one that has fairly bad noise at high iso06:27
humphreybcbut the a900 and a700 are amazing06:27
humphreybcmy friend went into the store set on buying a canon and came out with an a700 saying the canon's just didn't even compare to the sony, and the sony was cheaper too06:27
humphreybc:)06:27
IlyaHaykinson_i am a nikon guy myself... so i barely know the other manufacturer's lines06:29
humphreybcdutchie should be awake soon so he can update the ical with the PDF slides :)06:29
humphreybcyeah it's one of those things, when you choose a brand you can't really switch because of all the lenses and accessories06:29
IlyaHaykinson_exactly. and some of the choices were made for me (i ended up kind of inheriting some nikon stuff)06:30
humphreybcah well there you go06:32
godbykhumphreybc: I'll upload the slides in just a bit.06:45
* humphreybc is trying to teach mum how to use skype, but her video is upside down in skype on ubuntu!06:55
IlyaHaykinsonskype on ubuntu never impressed me with being stable.07:24
IlyaHaykinsonof course compared to ekiga it's the pinnacle of perfection07:25
godbykhumphreybc, dutchie: I've uploaded the slides here: http://kevin.godby.org/ubuntu-manual/talks/07:47
godbykI'm going to run on the treadmill. I'll be back in about 20 minutes.  (Then I'll clean up my slides and handout, proofread 'em, etc.)08:02
humphreybccool08:24
IlyaHaykinsonok, time to sleep. see y'all in the classroom in several hours08:27
godbykback.08:31
godbyksee ya IlyaHaykinson08:31
ubuntujenkinshumphreybc changing the resolution for quickshot is going well however I think we will have a dependency for quickshot in the ppa. It is http://willem.engen.nl/projects/disper/, It is only needed for nvidia, and I can detect,download it and install it but that means people can uninstall it when they are doing a system clean up. Do you think it should be a dependacy?08:36
humphreybccan we get away without it?08:37
ubuntujenkinsit is the only way I know of to change the resolution "on the fly" on nvidia cards.08:38
ubuntujenkinssaying that I have just discovered that we may not need it, I shall work on that.08:40
ubuntujenkinsI could depend on what version on nvidia driver that the user is running08:40
ubuntujenkinsAlso I have some window ideas that would be seen when you login to the quickshot user. http://imagebin.org/85984. Do we need something like that?08:41
godbykubuntujenkins: for the bottom two dialogs, why not post those in place of the first dialog?08:44
godbykforcing me to click OK (the only option) and them telling me you couldn't do what you said you were going to do feels like you're wasting my time.08:45
ubuntujenkinsmakes more sense I might have to rewrite how the script works. But good suggestion.08:46
godbykalso, should we give the user the option to manually change the screen res (especially if we can't do it automatically) and continue taking screenshots?08:46
godbykWhen you're designing the work flow, at each step you should stop and think, "Do I *really* need to bother the user with this? Can I do this automatically?"08:47
ubuntujenkinsnice I like it. That would only cover proprietry ati cards. I do have no clue on work flow thanks for the input godbyk08:47
godbykFinally, if you can't automatically adjust the resolution, but you know how the user could do so, provide those instructions to the user.08:48
* godbyk is happy his HCI degree comes in handy. :-)08:49
ubuntujenkinsSure I think we shall impliment that. Thanks godbyk08:50
* ubuntujenkins is off to lectures08:50
godbykSee ya.08:50
humphreybcokay i'm heading to bed, i'm setting my alarm for 1400 UTC, an hour before the first session.09:03
humphreybcmake sure that dutchie sorts out the ical thing with the PDF slides09:03
humphreybcand that the branch has the slides in them too :)09:03
humphreybcnight! see ya'll in 5 hours09:07
=== godbyk2 is now known as godbyk-android
humphreybcwaking up at 3am isn't the most favourable of conditions for the human body14:06
godbykhumphreybc: Neither is staying away all day and night (the approach I'm currently taking).14:07
humphreybchahaha14:07
godbyk(Tried to nap; failed.)14:07
humphreybcbummer!14:07
humphreybci got about 4 hours sleep14:07
godbykAbout now is when I've been falling asleep.  Sadly, I have four hours before my talk starts and I have to stay awake through it. :-)14:08
humphreybceeek14:08
ubuntujenkinshas it started yet?14:08
humphreybcload up on coffee14:08
humphreybcstarts at 150014:08
godbykhumphreybc: I emailed dutchie the links to our slides. I'm not sure if he's updated the ical or not.14:08
ubuntujenkinswoops I knew that I feel like an idiot? got confused.14:09
humphreybcgodbyk: crap i hope he has14:10
humphreybche knows we want them in the thingy14:10
godbykI don't know how I can check.14:10
godbykI think gmail may be playing with time zones or something.  I emailed dutchie, and I got a response back from him saying 'thanks', then he emailed the list asking for slides.14:10
godbykbut I can't tell if he emailed the list before or after I emailed him.14:11
godbykgmail gives me a different timestamp on the email depending on whether I look at it in my inbox or the individual email.14:11
godbykso I emailed him again a bit ago just to make sure I was clear that all of the slides (except his) are on my site.14:11
godbykI did add links to each session's slides to the wiki page as well, in case people have to download them manually.14:12
humphreybcwell it's 2pm in london now14:13
humphreybci'll facebook him14:13
humphreybcwhat's the URL where the pdfs are hosted?14:18
godbykhttp://kevin.godby.org/ubuntu-manual/talks/14:19
humphreybchttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lernid/LernidEvent14:19
humphreybci wonder where dutchie is hosting the config file14:21
humphreybcgodbyk have you got lernid installed?14:25
humphreybcmight be a good idea to join ##ubuntu-cr and ##ubuntu-cr-chat14:25
godbykhumphreybc: yeah, I do.14:28
humphreybcfire it up and connect to our event14:28
humphreybcthen hit schedule14:28
humphreybci think the first class isn't there?14:28
godbykhumphreybc: Do we want to join ##ubuntu-cr or #ubuntu-classroom?14:28
humphreybcughhh14:29
humphreybccrap14:29
humphreybcdid anyone say which one?14:29
godbykhumphreybc: also, you're right.. the first class isn't listed.  (though I thought it was earlier when I looked)14:29
godbykwhen I log in to lernid, it adds me to the #ubuntu-classroom channel.14:29
humphreybci think classroom yeah14:30
godbykdon't forget -chat, too14:30
humphreybcso in theory, at exactly 1500 UTC i should be given a voice in #ubuntu-classroom right?14:32
godbykin theory, yeah.14:32
godbykshould give voice to all the session leaders/helpers.14:32
godbykthough I'm worried about your first session not appearing in the list14:32
humphreybcand if the ical stuff isn't working, then we'll just have to point people to your list of files. apparently if i type a URL in classroom it will open it in lernid14:32
humphreybcokay i'll ping nhandler14:33
godbykdid you find dutchie?14:33
humphreybcnope14:33
godbykk14:34
humphreybcthat is a worry that my session aint in the list14:34
humphreybci wonder if the lernid schedule is tied to http://people.ubuntu.com/~nhandler/classroom.html14:35
godbykmy question is: if the session isn't on the schedule, does the bot know about it?14:35
humphreybcwell nhandler's session has it correct in the URL i just pasted14:35
humphreybcI *think* Jono set up the Lernid schedule for us a week ago14:35
humphreybchence why it might be out14:35
humphreybcbut the one here: http://people.ubuntu.com/~nhandler/classroom.html is correct14:36
humphreybcand since nhandler is running the bot, hopefully the bot knows...14:36
humphreybci pinged nhandler and cjohnston already14:36
humphreybchi d0od14:36
humphreybcwe meet again :P14:36
humphreybcgodbyk: http://planet.ubuntu.com/14:37
d0odhey HBC14:37
d0odlernid working okay?14:38
humphreybchopefully :S14:38
humphreybcthe schedule is a bit out14:38
humphreybcand we're worried the bot won't give the teacher a voice14:38
humphreybcbut we should be okay with a bit of luck14:38
humphreybcguys, backup plan if we don't get a voice in the main classroom channel: we can either find an ubuntu member and get them to make us an OP so we can talk, or we can run the session from chat14:39
humphreybcbackup plan if dutchie hasn't added the PDFs to the ical: point everyone to the download link for the pdf :D14:39
godbyksounds good.14:40
humphreybcgodbyk could you check your logs from the training session we had for the bot, and tell me what channel popey said we should hang about in for members?14:40
godbyksure14:41
humphreybcso is lernid supposed to magically change at exactly 1500 to display the PDF on the right, if dutchie has indeed added them to the preferences file?14:41
godbykhumphreybc: #ubuntu-ops14:43
humphreybcsweet14:43
godbykno clue about the pdfs14:43
humphreybchmm. why do i not like leaving it all up to a bot and an englishman14:44
godbyklol14:45
d0odlol @ humphreybc14:45
godbykhumphreybc: for your phone (whenever you get it): http://preyproject.com/14:47
humphreybcI saw that the other day, but for laptop - they have an android app?14:50
godbykyep14:51
humphreybcnice14:52
godbykhumphreybc: nervous?14:52
humphreybchaha nope14:52
humphreybcclassbot is running in the classroom channel14:53
humphreybcand i'm just talking to some ubuntu members in #ubuntu-ops who are going to chill out and if it doesn't work they'll OP us14:54
humphreybc123 people in the room so far, but we started with 11514:54
humphreybci'm hoping more than 8 will turn up :P14:54
godbykcool14:54

ubuntujenkinsI was there for ages14:55
godbyknope14:55

humphreybcwhat's not happening?14:55
d0odPhew! Working now14:57
humphreybcnice14:57
godbykevery computing device in my room just started making noises about five minutes ago telling me that your session starts soon.14:57
humphreybchahaha14:58
humphreybcyeah i had two alarms set... imagine if i didn't wake up14:58
godbykgoogle calendar emailed and SMS'd and it all cascaded to my computers and phone and everything.14:58

humphreybcdw the members will OP you in a sec15:02
humphreybc:P15:02
humphreybcclassbot hates you!15:02
godbykwill classbot listen to me if I have ops?15:02
godbykapparently.15:02
godbykthe feeling's mutual. :-)15:02
humphreybcdone15:04
* ubuntujenkins is on the worst wifi conection it keeps dropping15:04
kyleNI have questions about the ubuntu manual talk going on but cannot send to channel since it is moderated.15:22
kyleNtherefore I'll note there here15:22
kyleNQUESTION: do the pdfs have fonts for all the worlds languages embedded?15:22
godbykkyleN: They will, yes.15:23
kyleNQUESTION: will the install CD contain pdf for all translations, or just for English?15:23
godbykAlso, have you tried sending your questions to the #ubuntu-classroom-chat channel?15:23
kyleNgodbyk no I have not. thx15:24
godbykkomsas: no problem. :-)15:24
humphreybcd0od: omgubuntu is down?15:28
d0odhumphreybc: my domain provider is having server issues today15:28
humphreybcbummer15:28
humphreybcwutzara_: gidday15:57
wutzara_hi Ben15:57
wutzara_I'm a student for informatiks on a college in Germany in the second semester. I want to contribute to ubuntu.15:57
wutzara_but for me it is very hard to get my feet in the door15:57
wutzara_i had to learn many things before i can fully work with Gnome and the libraries15:58
wutzara_its also confusing where someone like me can help15:59
humphreybcgodbyk can you explain to Koerich in -chat what packages he needs to install latex?16:00
humphreybcwutzara_: okay16:01
humphreybcso a developer manual sounds cool16:01
godbykhumphreybc: sure.16:01
humphreybcwhat did you have in mind for topics to cover for it?16:01
humphreybcstuff like packaging? writing code in Ubuntu? Using bzr/ground control/launchpad?16:01
wutzara_yes but also basic things like using the glib and her object-system16:02
wutzara_stuff like actual projects and the key-person16:03
wutzara_a red line how a beginner can contribute to projects in ubuntu16:03
wutzara_in the way a developer can contribute16:04
humphreybchmm. sounds cool. I'll think about it some more and talk to Jono. At the moment we're fairly busy getting the main manual out, but we could work on it for 10.10. I'm sure Jono would be keen to help with all his opportunistic developer stuff :)16:04
wutzara_okay these are only suggestions. thanks for your audience16:05
humphreybcyep no that's no problem!16:05
humphreybcit's a great idea!16:05
humphreybci'm putting all the other slides on slideshare like Ilya's one at the moment16:11
humphreybcgodbyk can you put your slides in the bzr branch and push?16:15
humphreybci'll add them to slideshare.net16:15
godbykhumphreybc: they should be there.16:15
humphreybcokay maybe i haven't pulled yet16:15
godbykI was just uploading PNGs of my slides.16:15
humphreybcah16:16
humphreybcyou don't have a .odt of them?16:16
godbykhumphreybc: No, they were generated in LaTeX, so I've only got a PDF.16:17
humphreybcah ha16:17
humphreybcyou got a flickr account?16:17
ubuntujenkinswhere has the chat window gone in lernid16:24
humphreybcit should still be there16:24
humphreybcperhaps you've resized it or something and it's disappeared?16:24
humphreybcoh wait16:24
humphreybceveryone has quit?16:24
ubuntujenkinsI can see every one using xchat16:25
ubuntujenkinsfound the chat window :)16:26
humphreybcgroovy16:26
godbykhumphreybc: I just converted my PDF to PNGs and wrapped some HTML around 'em.  (Old school!)  http://kevin.godby.org/ubuntu-manual/talks/latex-slides/01.html16:27
humphreybcnice!16:28
humphreybcthat looks good!16:28
godbykhopefully the graphics aren't too large.16:28
humphreybcshould be okay16:28
godbykand it's nice to know I can still code super-simple html by hand still. :)16:28
humphreybchaha16:28
humphreybci wouldn't put money on my ability to be able to do that16:29
humphreybcbeen ages since i did HTML16:29
humphreybcso how many people do you think have actually shown up?16:29
godbykhumphreybc: I'm not sure.16:36
ubuntujenkinsget them to put their hands up between sessions o/ like a mexican wave :)16:36
godbykAnd I figure people will come and go, as well.16:36
godbykAttend the sessions they're interested in.16:36
humphreybcyea16:36
humphreybcwhat time is it in europe/USA during the second set of sessions?16:37
humphreybcI mean Europe and USA16:38
humphreybc:)16:38
godbykIn central US (my time zone), the second set of sessions will start at 2200.16:39
humphreybcokay so we might get some more people who aren't at work :)16:39
godbykAs for Europe, it'll be an hour or two ahead of UTC.16:39
godbyk(Or the same as UTC)16:39
godbykOnly if they're willing to stay up really late.16:40
humphreybctrue16:40
godbykMy talk will take place at 0300 in the US.16:40
humphreybcso the second set we'll get europe and asia16:40
humphreybceek!16:40
ubuntujenkinseurope is and hour to 2 hours ahead16:40
ubuntujenkinsof utc16:40
godbykI'm going to have to go to sleep after my first session here. :-)16:40
humphreybcyea that's a good idea16:40
humphreybcmy android phone should arrive by courier in a few hours16:40
humphreybcso i'll play with that between the two sessions16:41
ubuntujenkinssweet16:41
godbykcool16:41
humphreybcmy talk on ground control is going to be pretty easy, just point them to the video :P16:41
humphreybcis dutchie here now?16:46
godbykdid dutchie get hit by a bus?16:46
humphreybclol16:47
humphreybche just joined lernid apparently16:47
godbykah16:47
humphreybcI like it how Lernid uses the notifications to remind you of upcoming things16:50
ubuntujenkinsI do to its a good program16:51
humphreybcneeds some fine tuning but it's not too bad16:52
humphreybcit'd be better if it used a non-monospace font and colour coded people's nicks16:52
godbykyeah.. grey on white is kinda hard to read.16:52
ubuntujenkinsgood point I16:52
godbykand the monospaced font isn't the easiest to read either.16:53
humphreybcindeed16:53
humphreybci might suggest that to jono16:53
humphreybcapparently there's a new dev tho16:53
* humphreybc makes another coffee16:56
* godbyk sips his ice water and glares at humphreybc and his caffeine.17:01
humphreybcdidn't you go to the grocery store?17:02
godbykI did.  But I weened myself off soda a couple months ago and don't want to get addicted again.17:03
godbykNever started drinking coffee and figure I don't need another vice. :-)17:03
humphreybchaha17:05
* godbyk is reconsidering that now. :-)17:07
humphreybcandroid phone arriving soon!17:10
humphreybchopefully!17:10
godbykwell, you're not allowed to answer the door in the middle of your talk.17:13
godbyk.. or mine!17:13
humphreybcyou know it's early when you hear the rubbish being collected17:13
godbykyeah, they just picked it up here, too.17:13
humphreybccrazy17:13
humphreybcgroovy, now i just let them watch the video!17:18
cjohnston|cellhumphreybc: Yes?17:18
humphreybccjohnston|cell: hey, don't worry we've got it sorted now. We were a bit concerned that the bot wouldn't give us voice automatically because the schedule in Lernid was missing the first session, but it's all working fine anyway. I got an ubuntu member to OP me in the classroom anyway17:19
* humphreybc is surprised that my dog, angus, is up so early17:19
humphreybctold you my session on ground control would be short :P17:32
godbyk:-)17:33
godbykwhat'd you use to record the video?17:33
humphreybcwho's next?17:33
humphreybcgtk-recordmydesktop17:33
humphreybcthen i imported it into pitivi17:33
humphreybcdid some basic editing at the start and the end and also the middle where it downloaded the branch17:33
humphreybcthen i recorded my voice over the top of it using sound recorder17:34
humphreybcimported that file into pitivi and then synced them up17:34

ubuntujenkinsTommyBrunn  I have completed the resolution changing work in my branch of quickshot we should be able support all but ati proprietary drivers. We will need the disper package from http://willem.engen.nl/projects/disper/ to cope with nvidia in twinview not sure exactly how/when to install the package yet.18:31
TommyBrunnIs it in the repos?18:32
TommyBrunnIf so, we'll just have to add a dependency once we package it.18:32
ubuntujenkinsno its not, ben did ask if we could try not to use it but its the only way to deal with all nvidia. We might have to contact the devolper about getting it in the quickshot ppa18:33
TommyBrunnHmm, yeah. We'll cross that bridge when we get to it.18:34
TommyBrunnI'm going to download your branch tomorrow, and see how to incorporate your changes into trunk.18:34
ubuntujenkinsI was concidering wget and dpkg -i for the moment.18:34
TommyBrunnThat's what I was thinking too.18:34
ubuntujenkinsall I have done is added a bash script that runs on the click of the next button when in the quickshot user. The package must be installed by the original user as quickshot has no sudo privleges.18:35
TommyBrunnWe could add the quickshot user to the sudo group when it's created. There's an option in useradd for that.18:36
TommyBrunnWhether or not it's sound from a security standpoint, I don't know.18:37
ubuntujenkinsI would think best not to add quickshot to sudo. currently the script logs you out 15 seconds after the resolution has changed as we have no button to comfirm the change has worked. There are comments in the bash file in quickshot/bin as to thoughts on the windows18:38
TommyBrunnAlright. I'll have a look at it in the morning.18:38
ubuntujenkinsHave you looked at the terminal in the quickshot user? mine shows as $ there is no quickshot@mypc$ .18:39
TommyBrunnYeah. I saw that. I don't know why though.18:39
ubuntujenkinscool thanks, I shall be around for 60% of tomorrow if you have any questions.18:40
ubuntujenkinshave a fun evening18:40
TommyBrunnYou too18:40
ubuntujenkinsits only been tested on nvidia btw. I can see bug reports starting :)18:42
TommyBrunnHaha. I'll give it a go on my intel chip, and see what happens.18:42
ubuntujenkinsI will be interested it works in theory :)18:43
ubuntujenkinsoff to german be back in a while18:55

humphreybcdutchie: android can run without sim?19:44
dutchieerm, maybe19:45
humphreybci dont actually have one ye19:45
dutchieone easy way to find out :)19:45
* thorwil punches evince in the face19:45
humphreybcapparently it does need a sim card before you can do anything19:47
humphreybcdamn19:47
humphreybci have to wait till after my talk now!19:47
humphreybcoh well it can charge19:47
humphreybc:)19:47
thorwilevince somehow screws up rendering the title font. or inkscape messes up on export19:48
dutchiehumphreybc: seen the massive influx of lp team members? :)19:48
humphreybcwait i just found a sim card! an old one19:48
humphreybchaha nope not yet19:48
humphreybchaha19:48
humphreybca few people is good19:48
thorwilhumphreybc: what's the before/after?19:50
humphreybchuh?19:50
thorwilinflux, people19:50
* humphreybc finds it funny that the boot up time for android is almost as long as ubuntu on my laptop19:51
humphreybcumm19:51
dutchieit is quite slow19:51
dutchiei've seen a good 4/5 join just in the past few hours19:51
humphreybcwe've had 7 people join since the start of the talks19:51
thorwilnice19:52
* humphreybc has his phone working with wifi and my prepaid old sim card! yay!19:55
humphreybcthis. is. cool.20:01
thorwilgodbyk: it looks like something goes wrong on exporting the title set in Biolinum, once it is custom-kerned20:02
thorwilgodbyk: got jagged outlines on it, but on no other piece of text. added fresh and rough title text. no problems. then kerned it and boom20:04
thorwilno, actually that's not it, either20:06
thorwilwith further testing it seems pretty random. i'm starting to hate evince20:09
thorwilgodbyk: converting type to paths in inkscape "solves" the issue. how cute that ticking "Convert texts to paths" on pdf export does not lead to the same result.20:14
thorwilhumphreybc: talking about "my" dog and "my" sim card ... third person fail ;)20:20
humphreybctrue20:20
humphreybchaha20:20
thorwilwow, the wiki header image is ... growing20:23
komsasdutchie: I'm talking about dayly20:47
komsasups.. :D20:48
komsasI was talking about every day build after sync20:48
dutchieI think that's on godbyk's todo list20:50
dutchieYou can build for yourself at the moment, but I'm pretty sure godbyk wants to set up a build service pretty soon20:50
dutchiehe's been busy with organising this for now20:50
komsasthanks, I only wanted to know will be it in todo list ;)20:51
humphreybckomsas_ asked: " what you can suggest for other Loco teams, how to attract more contributors (translating, editing etc.)?"21:18
humphreybcoops21:18
dutchiehumphreybc: have you read jono's book?21:21
humphreybcnope21:21
humphreybcbut i've read "how to win friends and influence people" by dale carnegie21:21
dutchieprobably worth grabbing hold of a copy21:22
dutchiefree PDFs floating about the web (it's CC)21:22
humphreybcyeah i have got one but haven't read it yet21:23
dutchiecool21:24
ubuntujenkinsgodbyk are we able to change \menuitem to \menu yet?21:26
humphreybcgodbyk's asleeping :P21:29
ubuntujenkinsok thanks ben I will try compiling with \menu in.21:29
ubuntujenkinsit apparently works I will wait for kevins ok just incase21:32
humphreybccool21:34
ubuntujenkinshow do you describe the red delete note button in tomboy?21:40
dutchieubuntujenkins: you just did a reasonable job there21:43
ubuntujenkinsbut to me dutchie that implies that the is a red button that says "delete note". Currently the manual says "To delete the note click the red (\) button" ( my version only)21:45
dutchielooks fine to me21:46
ubuntujenkinsfair enough I am not the most awake at the moment. :P21:46
* ubuntujenkins has just pushed revision 300 :)22:28
