* IlyaHaykinson hates the wifi kernel module on this machine; keeps crashing06:07
* humphreybc-cell is at uds and is very busy!07:43
godbykHey, humphreybc-cell. I just woke up for UDS.07:47
nisshhubuntujenkins: i just saw your email to the mailing list08:05
nisshhubuntujenkins: does that ppa mean that we no longer have to install tex-live from a script?08:05
godbyknisshh: If it all works well, yes, that's what it means.08:06
godbykWe're just testing it now, so there are no guarantees.08:06
nisshhgodbyk: ok, thats good, was getting annoying having to install from a script and tweak the install08:07
godbyknisshh: I know. We're always trying to make it easier for people to contribute. :)08:07
nisshhyea08:08
nisshhgodbyk: can you have a look through my bzr script and see what you think?08:10
godbyknisshh: sure.08:10
nisshhok, gimme 1 minute and ill bastebin it08:13
nisshhpastebin*08:13
godbyksure08:13
godbykI'm listening to UDS stuff at the moment, so no rush.08:13
godbyk(just intro stuff so far)08:13
nisshhah right, how are you doing that?08:13
godbykstreaming audio: http://icecast.ubuntu.com:8000/bois_dentelle.ogg.m3u (of the intro talk)08:13
nisshhah cool im gonna listen in too maybe08:14
nisshhgodbyk: http://pastebin.com/f92egWjR08:15
godbykyou can also join #ubuntu-uds and the channel for whatever session you want to attend: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UDS-M/RemoteParticipation08:15
nisshhim not sure that its complete yet but i think its not far off08:15
godbykthe apt-get install bzr line should be inside the if-not-installed part, probably.08:17
nisshhok08:17
godbykand instead of checking for ~/.bzr, you could use 'which bzr' and check the return code.  (see 'man which' for a list of exit codes)08:17
nisshhi didnt know if that would work or not08:17
godbykwhy not?08:18
nisshhyea, i suppose ~/.bzr is not a good way to go since it could be there for numerous other reasons too and bzr might not be installed08:18
nisshhgodbyk: im lame at bash scripting still...08:18
godbykwell, my thinking is that ~/.bzr may not exist for a new user on a system if bzr has already been installed.08:19
godbykno worries. learning is half the fun.08:19
nisshhyea08:19
nisshhgodbyk: with an if statement is it possible to do something like:08:23
nisshhif which bzr == exit code 0 then echo "bzr is installed"08:26
nisshhis that possible?08:26
godbykyeah,08:27
godbykif you open up the install-pkgs.sh script, I can show you code that does that.08:27
nisshhok hang on08:27
godbykif you look at (or around) line 88, you'll see a function named check_exec_file().08:27
nisshhi see08:28
godbykthere's some log file stuff in there that you probably don't need/want.08:30
godbykbut the code with EXIT_STATUS=$? and the if..else..fi block afterwards will help you08:30
nisshhyea, whats the difference between cecho and echo?08:31
godbykcecho is a function that uses color for error messages, etc.08:31
nisshhok08:32
nisshhwhat does the "return 1" and "return 0" do?08:34
godbykthat's the return code for the check_exec_file() function.08:35
godbykyou won't need that.08:35
nisshhright08:36
godbykdid that work okay for you?08:41
nisshhso far yep08:42
nisshhdoing some more tweaking then ill test it fully08:43
nisshhoookkkkkk, it doesnt check for bzr correctly08:44
godbyknisshh: I can take a look if you want to pastebin it again.08:46
nisshhhmmm, ok one sec though08:48
nisshhi bet you iv made some noob mistake and left like one bit out08:48
nisshhhere: http://pastebin.com/MaQ6kXL108:49
godbykbefore the EXIT_STATUS=$? line, you need to actually call which.08:51
godbykadd this line: which bzr >/dev/null 2>&108:51
nisshhhehe, thought i was missing something08:51
nisshhadd that line before the if statement?08:52
nisshhor in the if statement08:52
godbykadd that line before the EXIT_STATUS=$? line.08:53
nisshhnot working still, and i found out that the ssh if statement isnt working either08:57
nisshhbrb08:59
godbyknisshh: paste your script here: pad.ubuntu-uk.org/UMPbzr  and we can work on it together.08:59
nisshhok its in there09:02
godbykI've edited the script.09:03
godbykthe bzr check should work now.09:03
nisshhok09:03
nisshhyep, works now09:03
nisshhssh key check still doesnt09:04
godbykremove the . in the filename09:05
godbykfixed in pad09:05
nisshhexcellent, works nicely now09:07
godbykcool09:09
nisshhthe whole script works now09:09
godbykgreat!09:09
nisshhyea, can you think of anything else i might need to add?09:09
godbykwalk them through creating the ssh key if it doesn't exist?09:10
godbykmaybe check to see if 'bzr whoami' has already been set before asking them for the info again?09:11
godbyksame with launchpad-login09:11
nisshhright, so try and automate as much of it as possible09:11
godbykyep09:11
nisshhok, ill get on with that after iv done my chores ;)09:12
godbykk09:13
godbykMark just gave a shout-out to the Ubuntu Manual project.09:31
popey:)09:32
nisshhyaya!09:32
nisshhhumphreybc-cell: hey, having fun?09:44
nisshhgodbyk: how would i check if bzr launchpad-login has already been set?09:54
godbyknisshh: if you just run 'bzr launchpad-login' it'll give the username if it's set, I think.09:54
nisshhyea it does, but what if this is the first time the user has run bzr launchpad-login?09:55
nisshhshould i just assume that if the user had to install bzr then they havent run it before?09:56
godbykthat's probably a safe bet.09:57
godbykbut bzr spits out a different message if it's not set.09:57
nisshhyea09:57
godbykI don't know what that msg is 'cause I've already set it, though. :)09:57
nisshhsame09:57
godbykgah! too many sessions running simultaneously.09:58
godbykhard to keep track of everything.09:58
godbyk(UDS)09:58
nisshhhehe09:58
nisshhgodbyk: where can i put my bzr script, i think its pretty much ready now10:11
godbyknisshh: for now just email it to me.10:11
godbykwe're going to create a new repository for our tools and scripts.10:11
nisshhright10:11

godbykah, that stinks.11:07
ubuntujenkinsI have no clue what i did11:08
* ubuntujenkins aaaarrrrgggg this is anoying11:33
godbykubuntujenkins: check the volume levels and settings in the pavucontrol app?11:35

godbykcat /proc/asound/cards11:36
c7phey godbyk I've corrected the problem on launchpad and greek translation is again 100% completed. When can, upload the pot file on the branch and see if the compilation runs smoothly11:37
ubuntujenkinsno such file or directory11:37
godbykc7p: thanks, I'll give it a shot after a bit.11:37
godbyk(currently listening to UDS sessions.)11:37
c7pgodbyk: ok :)11:37
godbykubuntujenkins: really? wow.. is the alsa kernel modules loaded?  run 'dmesg' and check for errors related to sound/alsa.11:37
godbykubuntujenkins: lsmod | grep asound11:38
aquariushey, manual guys :)11:38
c7phello aquarius11:38
aquariussomeone in the desktop roundtable session at UDS mentioned a session later in the week about an app developer book?11:39
nisshhaquarius: hey11:39
ubuntujenkinsgodbyk: lsmod | grep asound gives nothing i am reading the dmesg output11:39
aquariusI'm just about to register a session that rickspencer and I were talking about, around the idea of a manual for opportunistic developers on Ubuntu11:39
godbykubuntujenkins: so the asoundcore module hasn't been loaded.  you can try running 'sudo modprobe asoundcore' and then check the dmesg output.11:40
aquariusbut I don't want to do that if there already is one :)11:40
godbykaquarius: cool.  there's not one yet.11:40
aquariusgodbyk, sweet. I'll register one.11:40
godbykwe had discussed creating one, but I don't think it's on our to do list for now.11:40
godbyk(we have our hands full with our current plans)11:40
ubuntujenkinsgodbyk: FATAL: Module asoundcore not found.11:40
godbykwe're happy to help out, though. if you want to use our tool chain, etc.11:40
aquariusthat sounds useful!11:41
godbykubuntujenkins: well, that's quite odd. :-/11:41
ubuntujenkinsI would like to help if i haev time after doing qucikshot aquarius11:41
ubuntujenkinsthe only thing i did was boot into windows as i had to do some group stuff on there11:42
aquariusubuntujenkins, cool! Are you at UDS, or participating remotely?11:44
godbykI'm remotely participating at UDS.11:44
godbykaquarius: if you do schedule a session, let me know when it is and I'll try to listen in.11:44
* ubuntujenkins is off to lectures if anyone has any ideas please let me know11:49
wyhhi there. The Chinese version website still have a few strings in English. can someone check out why? It's been totally translated12:07
nisshhgodbyk: ^^^12:14
godbykwyh: It may be that the translations haven't been downloaded from launchpad and put into bzr yet.12:14
godbykIt's a manual process -- someone has to go through the motions to carry the translations from launchpad to bzr.12:14
wyhgodbyk: maybe. the translation entry on launchpad keeps changing... sometime two branches, sometimes one. what's happening?12:19
godbykdaker (our web developer) has been working to get the website translations sorted out.12:19
godbykhere's the backstory:12:20
godbykoriginally, the website was in the same repository as the manual itself.12:20
godbykthen we split the site into its own repository.12:20
godbykso at that point, there existed a translation file under the ubuntu-manual project and another under the ubuntu-manual-website project.12:20
godbykwe manually synchronized those two translations so that translators could keep working under the ubuntu-manual project umbrella as they hadn't noticed the ubuntu-manual-website project had been started.12:21
godbykwe recently closed the site translation that was under the ubuntu-manual project.12:21
godbyknow, for the ubuntu-manual-website project, there were two directories: main and test.12:21
godbykthe main site was the countdown page at ubuntu-manual.org12:21
godbykthe test site was what we were developing behind the scenes.12:22
godbykwhen we released the manual at the end of April, we closed the main site (the countdown timer) and switched the site over to (what was) the test site.12:22
godbyksince there were two sites under the project, they each had their own translations.12:22
godbyknow we've closed the main site, since we're using the test site.12:23
godbykso the main site translation was closed recently and we're left with just the test site translation.12:23
godbykand if your brain doesn't hurt already, in a few months we will be creating a brand new site that will have its own translation. :)12:24
godbykbut we'll worry about that further down the road.12:24
wyhah ha, it's a little complicated, really12:26
godbykA little bit, yeah.12:28
godbykI *think* it's all sorted now, though.12:28
wyhgodbyk: but some strings are not in Chinese, while they are translated on launchpad...12:30
wyhthey are too long paragraph mainly12:30
wyhone on "about" page, one on "download-not-ready" page12:31
godbykThere are basically two possible reasons:12:31
godbyk1. We haven't downloaded the translations from Launchpad since the strings were translated (so the website doesn't know that the strings have been translated); and12:32
godbyk2. We've changed the text on the website but haven't uploaded the new text to Launchpad for translation yet.12:32
godbykBoth of those steps require manual work on the part of our web developer (the uploading and downloading to/from Launchpad).12:32
godbykThey don't happen automatically.12:33
wyhgodbyk: well, as long as the book translation is not finished, you have time to adjust the website : )12:35
* ubuntujenkins has fixed the sound, reinstalling some packages appears to of worked.13:47
ubuntujenkinshave now i have meetings and lectures os have no time for uds :(13:48
ubuntujenkinssee you all later13:48
ubuntujenkinshello all17:27
dakerhello ubuntujenkins17:28
ubuntujenkinshey daker17:28
dakerhello @all17:28
dakergodbyk, ping17:28
godbykdaker: pong17:29
godbykdaker: Can you update the website translations?17:29
godbykSomeone was in here earlier and mentioned that some of the translated strings in launchpad don't show up as translated on the site yet.17:29
dakeroki i'll do it17:29
godbykthanks17:31
ubuntujenkinsgodbyk: is uds over for today?17:31
godbykubuntujenkins: yeah17:31
ubuntujenkinsnow that i have fixed sound and have time its over :( . Did i miss much?17:32
godbyk:)17:32
godbykhmm.. well, Mark gave a little shout-out to our project during his keynote.17:32
ubuntujenkinsoo nice i wonder if there is a video17:32
godbykThe guys who work on Quickly and related projects had a session on writing a book akin to our manual.17:32
ubuntujenkinsyep i saw aqu when he was in the channel17:33
dakergodbyk, is therer any possibility to import translations from the ubuntu manual launchpadp page to here https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu-manual-website17:34
dakerhttps://help.launchpad.net/Translations/YourProject/ImportingTranslations17:36
godbykdaker: If translations were done under the ubuntu-manual project, they should appear as suggestions in the ubuntu-manual-website project.  The translators would just have to choose that selection and submit it.17:36
dakerthat's the problem17:37
dakeri don't want to do that17:37
godbykI don't know of a better way. Sorry.17:40
dakeri will download the tarball of the translations from https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu-manual/lucid-e1/+templates and import it17:41
godbykdaker: Be careful.  We don't want to further anger the translators. ;-)17:43
c7pgodbyk: what about them?17:43
dakeri'll follow the wiki https://help.launchpad.net/Translations/YourProject/ImportingTranslations17:44
godbykc7p: Daker was just looking at importing some of the ubuntu-manual translations into the ubuntu-manual-website side of things.17:45
c7pgodbyk: ah ok, ty for the info :)17:45
dakerExample directory layout for translation files17:47
dakerEach template (.pot) file must be in its own directory. For example:17:47
dakertemplate1/template1.pot17:47
dakertemplate1/de.po17:47
dakertemplate1/fr.po17:47
dakertemplate2/template2.pot17:47
dakertemplate2/de.po17:47
dakertemplate2/fr.po17:47
dakerYou should follow Launchpad translation import guidelines to ensure your translation files are imported successfully.17:48
daker.mo-style layouts17:48
dakerLaunchpad will not import your files if they use a .mo-style directory layout, such as:17:48
dakerNOT SUPPORTED: template1/LC_MESSAGES/de/template1.po17:48
dakeri should put the po files in one folder17:48
godbykAh.. so you can't import your website's .mo files?17:48
dakerno17:48
dakeri should donwload all the po files then pput them in one folder17:49
dakerand lp will import them17:49

dutchiei've done somewhat more than that18:19
godbykdutchie: there's a UDS session about a Launchpad translations API.18:20
godbykin case you wanted to sit in on it.18:20

zleaphello18:57
zleapThe english uk edition of Getting Started with Ubuntu 10.04 is not yet available.18:57
godbykzleap: That's correct.18:58
godbykIt's being edited right now.18:58
zleapwith regard to the above, as the manual is in LaTeX would producing a a4 version be a case of changing the preamble to a4 from US18:58
xuacudaker: ping18:58
zleapgodbyk, i take it there are other spellings being changed too, rather than just paper size18:58
godbykzleap: Yeah, it's a full-blown translation.  I haven't kept up with what all they're doing.18:59
zleapright18:59
godbykFor the translated versions, there will be three versions generated: (1) A4 paper, color links, for on-screen reading, (2) A4 paper, no links, for printing at home, (3) US letter paper, no links, for printing and binding via lulu.com.19:00
zleapso when 10.10 is released will there be a whole new manual or a new manual + supplimentary bits to add in to the 10.04 manual19:00
godbykzleap: It will be an entirely new manual.19:01
zleapah19:01
zleapcool19:01
godbykI hope it'll be cool. :-)19:01
ubuntujenkinsgodbyk: have you got those pictures of the manual still up?19:02
dutchiemy lulu copy shipped today :)19:02
ubuntujenkinshas ben got his?19:02
dutchiei'm sure he'd have tweeted it19:03
godbykubuntujenkins: those horrible, blurry photos? yeah.19:03
godbykhe hasn't received his yet19:03
zleapjust asked this on the uk ubunty list, if I get any printing sponsored can we have the sponsor info on the printng somewhere19:03
godbykthey didn't ship in time. I don't know if they've shipped at all yet for him.19:03

godbykzleap: I don't think it'd be an issue.19:04
ubuntujenkinsmessage sent zleap19:04
zleapyes, when available,  its for the devon and cornwall Linux user group we are looking at printing some off for reference as i have suggested we givce people a copy of the manual (pdf) if we do installs19:04
zleapubuntujenkins, thanks19:05
godbykcool.19:05
ubuntujenkinsgodbyk: are we adding other langauages to lulu?19:05
godbykYou'll have to let us know how people like them and if there are parts of the manual that are difficult to follow.19:05
godbykubuntujenkins: Yeah, we'll add them to lulu as they're released.19:05
godbykNo reason not to, really.19:06
zleapwe installed ubuntu last month at a lug meet,  and gave a bit of support this weekend just gone so i copied the pdf over at the same time as follow up support19:06
ubuntujenkinszleap: Getting the uk english version form lulu will also be possible19:06
ubuntujenkins(when it is out)19:06
zleapok,19:06
zleapi will look in to getting one,  as i guess from lulu it will be more professionally bound,  see if my local library in torbay will carry a few copies19:07
godbykubuntujenkins: What'd it cost you?19:07
godbykAlso, if you order in bulk via lulu.com, the price drops.19:07

godbykHe was looking into it. I don't know if he's done anything yet or not.19:10
godbykWhat's the problem?19:11
xuacuI'd like he skip asturian (ast) translation19:11
xuacubecause I've already done the import19:11

godbyknope19:35
godbykI haven't heard anything from anyone.19:35
godbykI told humphreybc about the issue and he was going to try to corner one of the launchpad devs at UDS19:35
godbykbut he may be too drunk to remember now. ;-)19:36
dutchieheh19:36
dutchiei think danilo "untypeable cyrillic name" segan is the guy to talk to about translations19:37
godbykmaybe send him an email?19:38
godbykhere's what I've been posting to #launchpad:  I've had some reports recently from our translators that a number of strings have been flagged as 'needs review'.  It seems this change happened overnight.  Do you know what's happened?  (See http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2010/05/08/%23ubuntu-manual.html#t10:14 and https://lists.launchpad.net/ubuntu-manual/msg01692.html for two such reports.)19:38
godbykthere are more emails on our list now and more logs in our chatroom if they want further anecdotes.19:38
godbykI'm going to go read a book for a while. Then probably sleep.20:09

Red_HamsterXFacepalm for Canonical or facepalm for computing in general?20:26
Red_HamsterXWell, it's only kinda my call...20:26
Red_HamsterXPHP is universal and anyone can hack it.20:26
Red_HamsterXPython requires more of an investment in infrastructure and it requires a bit more diligence to produce working code.20:27
ubuntujenkinsI know its kinda your call just pointing out that i had seen your comment :-)20:27
Red_HamsterXAh.20:27
Red_HamsterXI assume things are read, most of the time. =P20:27
* Red_HamsterX is a very assuming individual.20:27
Red_HamsterXgodbyk-android, when you have time (or if you know offhand), could you let me know if your webhost has support for WSGI in any form? (mod_wsgi for Apache, CherryPy, the ability to just run a Python process locally, anything from http://www.wsgi.org/wsgi/Servers ...)20:37
Red_HamsterX(Not urgent)20:37
ubuntujenkinsmy dad is shocking at using a computer trying to tell him how to quit skype whilst on skype. I don't know how he got on there in the first place20:37
Red_HamsterXSounds unpleasant. :(20:38
Red_HamsterXThough, if it's Lucid, I can see one way in which minimize might be really confusing.20:39
Red_HamsterXI put my window list at the tops of my screens.20:39
Red_HamsterXWhen I first saw the new buttons, I kept going for the '^' instead of the 'v' when I wanted to iconify things.20:40
ubuntujenkinsit is lucid, i offred to move the window butons but my hole family said to leave it. I was very supprised20:40
ubuntujenkins*whole20:40
Red_HamsterX'Cause the window list is above, not below.20:40
dutchieRed_HamsterX: interesting issue20:41
Red_HamsterXI should probably propose some sort of "two arrows moving towards the upper corners" image for the art team.20:41

c7pnothing23:17
c7p(i typed dpkg)23:18
ubuntujenkinsopps :) .thats your problem, you need to install something. I didn't get permisson to add it to our ppa and its only needed for nvidia. It is installed when you set up the account. I expect system janitor removed it let my find the link23:19
c7pactually i had no problem since i installed some drivers that drived me mad ....23:20
ubuntujenkinshttps://edge.launchpad.net/~wvengen/+archive/ppa get the package from here just download it then it should work23:20
ubuntujenkinsc7p: does installing disper help?23:25
ubuntujenkinsthe way quickshot works is that it needs disper to handle nvidia cards. This is due to people possibly having twin view23:26
c7pyes it works , yeehaa23:27
ubuntujenkinsnight all23:28
