=== kermiac is now known as kermiac_
waltercoolIs working fine the new kernel?12:25
* ara -> lunch13:44
cr3it seems there are no daily images today, I wonder what happened13:46
persiacr3: Did you look for logs?13:48
* davmor2 points at fader_ it was him cr3 he blew up the image server cause he wanted the day off.13:48
* persia suspects glib13:48
cr3persia: where?13:48
fader_davmor2: Shhhh, it doesn't work if you call attention to it13:48
persiacr3: http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/livefs-build-logs/ and http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/cd-build-logs/13:48
cr3persia: how the heck do you keep track of all those urls?13:49
davmor2cr3: http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/cd-build-logs/13:49
davmor2http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/livefs-build-logs/13:49
persiacr3: heuristics, mostly.13:50
davmor2by the way morning fader_ cr313:52
fader_Morning all :)13:52
cr3davmor2: hey dude13:53
fader_cr3: persia was in a mad experiment gone horribly awry and had half of his brain replaced with a set of flash cards13:53
fader_*electronic flash cards, not the kind on index cards13:54
cr3fader_: I'd like to have a look at that deck13:55
davmor2cr3: I cheat there is this wonderful invention called bookmarks ;)13:57
fader_davmor2: We're still trying to introduce him to using a mouse... don't go too fast13:59
* davmor2 double checks if w3c has bookmarking ability13:59
davmor2fail w3m14:00
davmor2fader_: w3m has bookmarks :D14:01
persiadavmor2: "ESC a"14:01
cr3davmor2: I've got bookmarks, but I wouldn't mind if we all shared our useful ubuntu related bookmarks someday. I'm sure we'd learn a thing or two14:01
cr3more like discover rather than learn, actually14:01
persiaThere cannot exist an authoritative set.14:01
persiaA number of the scattered QA tools are linked from qa.ubuntuwire.com : please file bugs if there are others that *should* be there.14:02
cr3persia: not necessarily for the purpose of building such an authoritative list, just to know what others find important in case we missed anything14:02
davmor2persia: no but there could be a wiki page of useful qa links :)14:02
cr3fader_: you're popular, you're people.c.c page is on qa.ubuntu.com :)14:03
fader_cr3: Not only that, but I made a blog post that got a *comment*.  (No autographs, please.)14:04
cr3fader_: dude, I want to become your official stalker14:04
fader_cr3: I was rather hoping my stalker would be Christina Ricci, but hey, I've got to start somewhere.14:05
davmor2fader_: won't that mean that you and cr3 will just be going round in circles as your his official stalker :D14:06
fader_davmor2: I thought you were stalking him this week.14:06
davmor2fader_: No, when I said I was hunting for hush puppies that didn't mean I was stalking cr3 :D14:07
cr3davmor2: that would be a good code name though14:08
primes2hcr3: Hello. Looking at translation strings, this one seems to be old. Are you aware of this? https://translations.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/+source/checkbox/+pots/checkbox/it/54/+translate14:34
primes2hcr3: if you need I can open a bug.14:34
cr3primes2h: that string still seems to exist, what makes you say otherwise?14:36
primes2hcr3: I mean, the application involved is no longer present in Ubuntu.14:40
primes2hso, it's useless14:42
persiaOr rather, the string should probably be adjusted in checkbox to match current tools14:43
cr3persia: I'm trying to find the current tool and I can't find it for the life of me14:43
persiacr3: Check with the #ubuntu+1 folk.  They usually have all the nifty ways to get stuff done figured out by this point in the cycle.14:44
primes2hpersia: it refers to built-in modem, and AFAIK there is not a tools for that now.14:44
primes2hpersia: at least, in a default installation14:45
persiaprimes2h: I know there to be several tools.  I don't know if the current NM exposes them well.14:45
cr3primes2h: I'll double check with the folks in #ubuntu+1 and, if I don't get an answer, you can assume the question will magically go away :)14:45
persiaLooks like a regression to me.14:45
persiaThere are a number of use cases for using a modem to connect that do not go away just because other networking technologies are available.14:46
primes2hpersia: yes, it is.14:46
persiaprimes2h: cr3: If you can't figure out how to make it work simply, please file a bug with the "regression" tag.14:46
primes2hpersia: users usually use (sorry for this :-) ) vwdial.14:46
persia(better to try to fix now than have 10,000 annoyed users post-release)14:46
primes2hand gnome-ppp as UI14:47
persiavwdial?14:47
persiaOught either be in the repos, or we ought have a good alternative.14:47
cr3very weird dial?14:47
persiaBut I know ppp is installed by default, because it's used for many 3G connections.14:48
persiaSo it's just a matter of exposing a UI, etc.14:48
primes2hcr3: :-D14:49
primes2hpersia: you are right.14:49
cr3primes2h: gnome-ppp looks good but I'm still waiting on the default or preferred way14:50
primes2hcr3: yes, I agree with you.14:54
charlie-tcaAny idea when we will see alternate and server images again?15:17
charlie-tcaNo alternate images for xubuntu and no server images since 2010-03-0515:18
persiaknown issue: ought be sorted tomorrow.15:23
persiaseveral causes.15:24
