| Ahmuck-Sr | what is edubuntu using for photomanagment? | 16:32 |
| alkisg | The same as Ubuntu, f-spot I believe. | 16:33 |
| * Ahmuck-Sr is moving to showfoto i believe | 16:35 | |
| Ahmuck-Sr | k, nm | 16:44 |
| Ahmuck-Sr | looks nice but functions bad | 16:44 |
| sbalneav | Ahmuck-Sr: I use both f-spot and gthumb | 16:50 |
| sbalneav | f-spot's quite nice, but It's a bit of a pain to keep two different f-spot installations in sync, owing to the "photos vs. metadata database" dichotomy | 16:51 |
| sbalneav | gthumb's nice in that it ONLY looks at the photos, unfortunately, if you want to tag a photo with a comment, it stores the comment as a .xml file in the directory with the photo, rather than embedding the comment in the photo the way f-spot does. | 16:52 |
| Ahmuck-Sr | i need picasa's photo editing (simple and works) without all thier privacy issues | 16:53 |
| Ahmuck-Sr | oops | 17:12 |
| Ahmuck-Sr | closed konversation without knowing it | 17:12 |
| Ahmuck-Sr | anywho, i've been using gwenview for viewing only | 17:12 |
| Ahmuck-Sr | i find kde apps however void of gui icons for doing things | 17:13 |
| alkisg | Meeting in 3 minutes? | 18:57 |
| stgraber | meeting time ! | 19:07 |
| sbalneav | foo | 19:07 |
| sbalneav | there | 19:07 |
| sbalneav | It's looking more and more like I won't get to the handbook in time for release. But I'm thinking of taking the handbook wikifi-ing it, and I'll get some stuff together at about release time. | 19:55 |
| sbalneav | Does that seem okidokie with peoples | 19:55 |
| sbalneav | ? | 19:55 |
| mhall119|work | handbook for what? | 19:55 |
| Lns | sbalneav: a wiki would be the best bet imho...so easy for people to contribute compared to other methods | 19:55 |
| highvoltage | sbalneav: +1, wiki seems nice for that | 19:56 |
| mhall119|work | did we ever determine if we could go from moin->docbook in an automated way? | 19:56 |
| alkisg | I think some converters exist, but they haven't been updated recently, so they'd need some maintaining | 19:58 |
| sbalneav | mhall119|work: Nothing "automated", I figure lets get the wiki thing started, and we'll burn the other bridge when we come to it. | 19:58 |
| sbalneav | I've been doing that alot lately, apparently ;) | 19:59 |
| hoze | i have edubuntu 7.04, i tried to sudo do-release-upgrade but i got some errors: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/ELhB6nXq any help pls? | 19:59 |
| Lns | hoze: any reason you're using such an old version? | 19:59 |
| Lns | oh, nm hahaha | 20:00 |
| Lns | trying to fix that apparently ;) | 20:00 |
| hoze | yeah :) i got a laptop with that version installed | 20:00 |
| Lns | hoze: i dunno if this owuld help but are you totally up to date on 7.04? As in, apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade? | 20:01 |
| hoze | checking | 20:01 |
| mhall119|work | 7.04 would try to upgrade to 7.10, which is out of support I think, that may be a problem | 20:02 |
| hoze | it seems to be | 20:02 |
| mhall119|work | does your laptop have a DVD drive? | 20:03 |
| hoze | when i open the upgrade manager i have a button that 7.10 is available but it fails when i try to upgrade | 20:03 |
| hoze | no i dont, this is 9 inch monitor laptop :) | 20:04 |
| mhall119|work | ah, a netbook | 20:04 |
| mhall119|work | do you have a USB drive > 4.5 GB? | 20:04 |
| mhall119|work | or however big a DVD is | 20:04 |
| alkisg | The edubuntu dvd should fit in < 4 Gb... | 20:04 |
| hoze | i have 4gig atm | 20:05 |
| hoze | usb drive | 20:05 |
| mhall119|work | perfect! | 20:05 |
| hoze | can i make it bootable from this version? | 20:05 |
| mhall119|work | I don't think 7.04 included usb-creator | 20:06 |
| hoze | usb creator is available after 8.10 i think | 20:06 |
| mhall119|work | try http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/ | 20:07 |
| mhall119|work | I don't know if it works with DVD images | 20:08 |
| hoze | i can make bootabe from my desktop | 20:08 |
| hoze | bootable* | 20:08 |
| mhall119|work | so if not, just make a bootable Ubuntu 9.10 image, install then, then apt-get install the edubuntu packages | 20:08 |
| hoze | ttyl, ty | 20:08 |
| mhall119|work | np | 20:08 |
| hoze | 1 more question | 20:08 |
| hoze | can i upgrade from the usb or i need a clean install | 20:09 |
| alkisg | You can, but you'd need to go from 7.04 to 7.10 to 8.04 to 8.10 to 9.04 to 9.10 ;) | 20:09 |
| hoze | :) | 20:10 |
| alkisg | Or, go from 8.04 to 10.04 (you can go from LTS to LTS) | 20:10 |
| hoze | there is a new lts??? | 20:10 |
| alkisg | Not yet, it's in alpha 3 (tomorrow) | 20:10 |
| hoze | i'm on 8.04 at office, ill upgrade when itgets official | 20:10 |
| mhall119|work | easiest to just do a clean install | 20:11 |
| alkisg | But with the updates, you could stop in 8.04 until 10.04 is ready | 20:11 |
| mhall119|work | backup any files you want to keep | 20:11 |
| hoze | ok, going on my desktop to create the usb | 20:11 |
| hoze | its new laptop, nothing i need here | 20:11 |
| hoze | thanx for the help | 20:11 |
| mhall119|work | then don't bother with upgrading, do a clean install | 20:11 |
