[04:48] <HedgeMage> ping, highvoltage
[05:56] <Ahmuck> i'd like to report a bug
[05:56] <Ahmuck> nm
[05:56] <Ahmuck> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/scribus/+bug/575576
[05:57] <Ahmuck> bugs posted in edubuntu are reported in ubuntu as well?
[07:51] <highvoltage> HedgeMage: pong
[07:52] <HedgeMage> highvoltage: gah, I'm on my way to bed.  I'll catch you tomorrow night if I can -- otherwise Thursday after I get back from the dojo?
[07:54] <highvoltage> HedgeMage: heh, I just woke up
[07:55] <highvoltage> HedgeMage: I don't have your schedule open in front of me right now... what time to you get back from the dojo again? :p
[07:56] <HedgeMage> highvoltage: usually about 5:30pm my time.  What are good hours for you?  My day tomorrow is kind of crazy, but Thurs-Fri are flexible
[07:56] <highvoltage> HedgeMage: I can do that
[07:57] <HedgeMage> are you sure?  I easily forget sometimes that you are so far away.  I don't want you to lose sleep over this little errand :)
[08:02] <highvoltage> HedgeMage: oh trust me I've stayed up for way less before :)
[08:02] <highvoltage> HedgeMage: and this is important to me right now
[08:04] <HedgeMage> :)
[08:04] <HedgeMage> Okay, then Thursday is a date, assuming we don't run into one another tomorrow and both have a free 20 minutes
[16:17] <sbalneav> Morning all
[16:26] <sbalneav> alkisg: Hey hey!
[16:26] <sbalneav> How's things in Greece?  Tumultuous, I hear.
[16:26] <ogra> heavily
[16:26] <ogra> all european news stations have it the whole day already
[16:27] <sbalneav> ogra: Yeah, I was listening to CBC this morning, sounds like the budget measures aren't going over well.
[16:27] <ogra> heh, no wonder
[16:27] <alkisg> Hi sbalneav, ogra, peoplee
[16:27] <sbalneav> I didn't hear what's the major sticking point, if any?
[16:28] <alkisg> They already cut 200€ off our salaries, and that's not enough yet...
[16:28] <ogra> yeah
[16:28] <ogra> german news said something about "up to 40% cut in salaries"
[16:28] <sbalneav> Is it just one particular funding cut that's causing the problem, or just a general "too much too fast" problem.
[16:28] <sbalneav> 40%!?!
[16:28] <sbalneav> Yikes
[16:28] <ogra> to pay for the waste the politicians did the last 10 years
[16:29] <sbalneav> What, politicians waste money?!
[16:29] <ogra> obviously the money went into their own pockets and they gave wrong reports to the EU ...
[16:29] <ogra> which got into that situation
[16:29] <sbalneav> Say it ain't so!
[16:29] <ogra> and now the people have to pay for it
[16:29] <sbalneav> Yeah, it's always the little guy that pays.
[16:29] <ogra> mainly to support paris hiltons new boayfriend ;)
[16:29]  * alkisg wonders if that's just it... I'm hearing about foreign powers trying to compromise the greek economy etc, but I don't know which parts are true
[16:30]  * ogra hears something about 34 billion or something the greek state owes him
[16:30] <alkisg> Sure, the politicians waste money, but that didn't just happen the last 10 years; it was always so
[16:30] <alkisg> Heh
[16:30] <sbalneav> alkisg: There's probably some of that going on.  "Big Business" will always profit in times of economic instability.
[16:31] <sbalneav> Hey, a billion dollars here, a few trillion there, sooner or later it starts to add up to real money :)
[16:31] <ogra> pennies, pfft
[16:34] <sbalneav> http://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/authors/e/everett_dirksen.html
[16:34] <sbalneav> One of my favorite quotes
[16:40] <mhall119> asking about edubuntu in Ask Mark in #ubuntu-classroom
[16:42] <mhall119> well, not much from that
[17:00] <sbalneav> What did he say?
[17:01] <sbalneav> I just noticed, wasn't in the room?
[17:01] <sbalneav> :(
[17:01] <mhall119> sbalneav: just that Canonical is struggling to find out what they can do
[17:02] <mhall119> that hey want to be involved, especially on regional and national level
[17:02] <mhall119> basically what dinda has already told us
[17:06] <mhall119> he did say they might extend access to their build system to child distros, so I'm hoping to take advantage of that for Qimo
[17:18]  * dinda missed it :(
[17:19] <dinda> will have to read the transcript later
[17:19] <highvoltage>  * Edubuntu classroom session in about 40 minutes in #ubuntu-classroom
[17:19]  * dinda contemplates having to buy food vs attending the next session. . .
[17:21] <dinda> food wins for now, sorry, bbl
[17:23] <mhall119> dinda: http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2010/05/05/%23ubuntu-classroom.html#t16:39
[18:49] <stgraber> highvoltage: ping
[18:50] <bencrisford> stgraber: hes in the middle of the OW session atm :)
[18:52] <alkisg> stgraber: I can make an upstart job that runs before ltsp-reboot.conf, but no upstart jobs run at all when ldm.c runs `reboot -fp`... :(
[18:52] <alkisg> It'd be nice if used a script or something that was easier to override...
[18:56] <highvoltage> stgraber: pong
[19:00] <mhall119> highvoltage: I added the idea of a higher-ed package to the Maverick wiki
[19:01] <bencrisford> highvoltage: stgraber: nicely done :D, hopefully we inspired some new contributors
[19:01] <highvoltage> mhall119: thanks for the questions it kept the flow going nicely :)
[19:01] <mhall119> that was the idea
[19:01] <mhall119> people tend to be shy about asking when nobody else is asking
[19:01] <highvoltage> bencrisford: this was the first session I did by myself and it went a lot better than I thought it would :)
[19:02] <mhall119> but open it up, and they'll follow
[19:02] <highvoltage> *nod* thanks!
[19:02] <bencrisford> highvoltage: it sure did :D
[19:02] <bencrisford> thanks for the mention :)
[19:02] <stgraber> highvoltage: thanks again for doing it
[19:02] <bencrisford> there is a meeting tonight right?  because I said there was on chat
[19:03] <highvoltage> stgraber: I'll post the logs to the list, I think some of the answers might be worth-while answering on our website as well
[19:03] <bencrisford> -classroom-chat*
[19:03] <highvoltage> bencrisford: indeed! although I'm not 100% sure that we need one tonight, it will probably beshort
[19:04] <bencrisford> highvoltage: ok :)
[19:04] <mhall119> best to have it now, in case potential new people show up
[19:04] <stgraber> I'm not sure I'll be there for the meeting tonight, though there's really not much to discuss. I registered all of the edubuntu/education sessions for UDS and will work more on that next week in Brussels
[19:04] <mhall119> is there a tentative schedule for UDS yet?
[19:05] <mhall119> I'm afraid most of it will happen while I'm sleeping
[19:06] <bencrisford> what timezone is brussels
[19:06] <bencrisford> is it UTC+0 at the moment?
[19:07] <highvoltage> UTC+2
[19:07] <bencrisford> highvoltage: :D sweet!
[19:08] <bencrisford> that means i should be able to attend some more sessions
[19:08] <bencrisford> remotely i mean
[19:09] <highvoltage> bencrisford: heh, I adjusted myself to canadian time over the last few months... now I've adjusted back to my "real" timezone over the last week in preperation for UDS :)
[19:10] <bencrisford> highvoltage: lol :)
[19:14] <bencrisford> =0 oh no...  UTC+2 isn't good :P, its even worse :P
[19:14] <bencrisford> nevermind
[19:15] <highvoltage> bencrisford: since only one of us will technically physically be there, we'll probably do some planning and discussion outside of sessions too
[19:15] <oppl> hi ... I just became aware of this channel during the classroom session a few minutes ago - I would maybe be interested in contributing. Will there be a meeting this evening? Just to get some initial ideas of what would be interesting for both sides ...
[19:15] <highvoltage> bencrisford: I think sessions are most useful when we need input from other teams and clever people
[19:16] <highvoltage> oppl: yep, in about 45 minutes on #ubuntu-meeting
[19:16] <oppl> oh - perfect
[19:16] <oppl> thx
[19:17] <highvoltage> oppl: welcome :)
[19:18] <oppl> thx ... good to be here
[19:20] <bencrisford> highvoltage: ok :),  I had some thoughts about the teams blueprint during the week
[19:21] <bencrisford> its just a suggestion :), the final decision is down to council.  but I thought it might be easiest for everyone if me and whoever else wants to could sort the teams into the groups discussed during an IRC session
[19:22] <bencrisford> then we could get the council members to approve it, but obviously some might have attended said session
[19:23] <bencrisford> that way all the council members that dont want to/cannot be directly involved still have a say without having to attend the IRC session if they do not want to
[19:23] <bencrisford> like I say its just a suggestion :)
[19:24] <highvoltage> bencrisford: yep, sounds good. if you could get some of it in a wiki page it makes it even easier for comments to be added, etc
[19:24] <bencrisford> highvoltage: ok, i'll do that now, I can link to it in the meeting
[19:24] <bencrisford> one already exists for the blueprint I can update that
[19:25] <highvoltage> bencrisford: I'd like to talk about the advocacy team in this meeting too
[19:25] <highvoltage> my boss (also a Ben) basically sells Edubuntu every day of his life and wants to get involved
[19:27] <highvoltage> (brb)
[19:28] <bencrisford> ok, sounds good :)
[20:00] <highvoltage> Edubuntu Meeting Time!
[20:01]  * bencrisford grins 
[20:01] <bencrisford> :D
[20:35] <alkisg> !info evolution
[21:08] <isforinsects> good meeting... all I got was: 15:28 < highvoltage> quickquickmeeting(TM) adjourned, thanks everyone!
[21:36] <isforinsects> highvoltage: what about your boss? Where do you work?
[21:43] <highvoltage> isforinsects: Revolution Linux
[21:52] <isforinsects> Aah, I saw a mention that they sponsor some edubuntu work.
[21:52] <isforinsects> Cool.
[21:53] <isforinsects> Do you install/support/host wikis for schools using *buntu?
[21:54] <isforinsects> One of the research projects I work on is wikis in education.
[22:12]  * bencrisford thinks its time for sleep
[22:12] <bencrisford> g'night
[22:17] <rmainard> Hello everyone, I am running an ltsp cluster with ubuntu 8.04 as my load balancer and control center and edubuntu 9.1 for my root and app servers. I have added XSERVER=vesa, X_ORG_0=1024x768, LDMDIRECTX=True to the lts.conf all of which made it possible to log into my thin clients. the problem is when I log out or have a failed login the screen goes blank and it never recovers. Do you have any ideas as to what this could be?
[22:18] <rmainard> this is on the thin client not the servers
[22:32] <rmainard> is anyone in here?
[23:06] <rmainard> hello
