| Muscovy | I suppose next week we'll get going on Maverick? | 00:35 |
|---|---|---|
| godbyk | Muscovy: Yeah, after we release the second edition of 10.04, we'll be moving on to the Maverick edition. | 00:38 |
| daker | hello everybody !! | 00:57 |
| Muscovy | Hello. | 01:11 |

| Muscovy | Nice! | 01:12 |
| Omega | So guys, what's up for tonight? | 01:23 |
| Muscovy | Here's a quickshot logo idea: http://www.flickr.com/photos/muscovyx/4886367385/ | 02:18 |
| humphreybc | Muscovy: cool logo idea | 03:43 |
| humphreybc | although we probably don't want the screenshot to be dependant on an operating system or version | 03:44 |
| Muscovy | Yeah, good point. | 03:53 |
| Muscovy | I got the vague idea from Thorwil's concept. | 03:54 |
| Muscovy | Here's an edited that doesn't say Ubuntu _quite_ as much: http://www.flickr.com/photos/muscovyx/4886602265/ | 04:10 |
| KE1HA | Hello all, anyone around ? | 10:22 |
| nisshh | KE1HA: yep, sup? | 10:38 |
| KE1HA | nisshh, Hello, where would we go to make a recommendation to add something to the manual? Bu the way, the install is working great. | 10:46 |
| nisshh | KE1HA: sorry i was AFK for a sec, what did you have in mind to recommend? | 10:59 |
| KE1HA | Well, After habing out in the UB channel and getting asked the same questions over and over, especially form New Users, I though it would eb good to add a back-Up how too or at least informaiton on what is critical and how they could approach it. | 11:02 |
| nisshh | KE1HA: can you expand on that, im not quite following what your saying just yet | 11:03 |
| nisshh | sounds interesting thoung | 11:03 |
| nisshh | though | 11:03 |
| KE1HA | Basically, how, and why to back up your data. | 11:04 |
| nisshh | ah | 11:04 |
| nisshh | KE1HA: you mean a new section in the manual on backing up your data? | 11:04 |
| KE1HA | I get asked constantly, how to back up my files, what should be backed up, where should I put it, simple stuffl like that. | 11:04 |
| nisshh | yea | 11:05 |
| KE1HA | It clearly fits the scope of the manual and is a good practice for any-level of manual actually. | 11:05 |
| KE1HA | Not to mention,we get asked at least 10 times a day, How Can I recover my data, or restor it after an install went wrong. | 11:06 |
| nisshh | KE1HA: it certainly makes sense, but the one problem is that (to the best of my knowledge) ubuntu doesnt HAVE a backup tool by default, and thats all we cover in the manual, dfault tools | 11:06 |
| KE1HA | Ahh... ok .. I see. Let me look at what is available in the Base Repo's. Im sure we can make somethign feasable. | 11:07 |
| nisshh | KE1HA: i think maybe as a workaround the the above problem, we could add some info to the manual about using a seperate /home directory, what do you think? | 11:07 |
| KE1HA | If nothing else, rsync and simple TAR / rsync commands woudl do it. | 11:08 |
| KE1HA | Yeah, seperate /home I dot that as a standard practice. | 11:08 |
| nisshh | KE1HA: we are trying to avoid the command-line :) | 11:08 |
| KE1HA | oosp I do that. | 11:08 |
| nisshh | hehe | 11:08 |
| nisshh | i use rsync too, but do you really think a new Ubuntu user would? | 11:09 |
| KE1HA | Doesn't work well when you Multi-Boot lots of Distros, but for a common Install, works great. | 11:09 |
| nisshh | yea | 11:09 |
| KE1HA | rsync A to B .. dead simple. | 11:09 |
| nisshh | not for a new user :) | 11:09 |
| KE1HA | on:-) | 11:09 |
| KE1HA | Well, that's out Job, it to make it "easy" for new users :-) | 11:10 |
| KE1HA | our Job. | 11:10 |
| nisshh | KE1HA: but all the same, you have a very good point, its something worth thinking about for the maverick manual | 11:10 |
| nisshh | exactly right | 11:10 |
| KE1HA | I'll work on something, and give you a shout back in a few days. | 11:10 |
| nisshh | KE1HA: awesome, no rush, it probably wont get chucked in till maverick anyway | 11:10 |
| KE1HA | Ok, TNX, will ttul. | 11:11 |
| nisshh | yep :) | 11:11 |
| KE1HA | nisshh, you still around? | 11:22 |
| KE1HA | If not, no worries, you'll when you get back, but Quick-Shot install just crashed X on my workstation, gonna try and track down what happened. Its working after reboot though. | 11:23 |
| nisshh | KE1HA: you should talk to jenkins if your quickshot install isnt working properly | 12:01 |
| KE1HA | Hi nisshh it's working after install, was just during the install that is crashed. | 12:33 |
| nisshh | KE1HA: ah cool :) | 12:40 |
| KE1HA | nisshh, Now I just have to learn how it's used properly :-) I may need to do a Workstaiton that's all native too, as the menu's have additional items as such. | 12:42 |
| nisshh | KE1HA: ah yea | 12:55 |
