[00:35] I suppose next week we'll get going on Maverick? [00:38] Muscovy: Yeah, after we release the second edition of 10.04, we'll be moving on to the Maverick edition. [00:57] hello everybody !! [01:11] Hello. [01:11] http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=2039525&id=1582176372&l=29171fb83d [01:12] Nice! [01:23] So guys, what's up for tonight? [02:18] Here's a quickshot logo idea: http://www.flickr.com/photos/muscovyx/4886367385/ [03:43] Muscovy: cool logo idea [03:44] although we probably don't want the screenshot to be dependant on an operating system or version [03:53] Yeah, good point. [03:54] I got the vague idea from Thorwil's concept. [04:10] Here's an edited that doesn't say Ubuntu _quite_ as much: http://www.flickr.com/photos/muscovyx/4886602265/ [10:22] Hello all, anyone around ? [10:38] KE1HA: yep, sup? [10:46] nisshh, Hello, where would we go to make a recommendation to add something to the manual? Bu the way, the install is working great. [10:59] KE1HA: sorry i was AFK for a sec, what did you have in mind to recommend? [11:02] 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. [11:03] KE1HA: can you expand on that, im not quite following what your saying just yet [11:03] sounds interesting thoung [11:03] though [11:04] Basically, how, and why to back up your data. [11:04] ah [11:04] KE1HA: you mean a new section in the manual on backing up your data? [11:04] I get asked constantly, how to back up my files, what should be backed up, where should I put it, simple stuffl like that. [11:05] yea [11:05] It clearly fits the scope of the manual and is a good practice for any-level of manual actually. [11:06] 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] 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 [11:07] 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] 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? [11:08] If nothing else, rsync and simple TAR / rsync commands woudl do it. [11:08] Yeah, seperate /home I dot that as a standard practice. [11:08] KE1HA: we are trying to avoid the command-line :) [11:08] oosp I do that. [11:08] hehe [11:09] i use rsync too, but do you really think a new Ubuntu user would? [11:09] Doesn't work well when you Multi-Boot lots of Distros, but for a common Install, works great. [11:09] yea [11:09] rsync A to B .. dead simple. [11:09] not for a new user :) [11:09] on:-) [11:10] Well, that's out Job, it to make it "easy" for new users :-) [11:10] our Job. [11:10] KE1HA: but all the same, you have a very good point, its something worth thinking about for the maverick manual [11:10] exactly right [11:10] I'll work on something, and give you a shout back in a few days. [11:10] KE1HA: awesome, no rush, it probably wont get chucked in till maverick anyway [11:11] Ok, TNX, will ttul. [11:11] yep :) [11:22] nisshh, you still around? [11:23] 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. [12:01] KE1HA: you should talk to jenkins if your quickshot install isnt working properly [12:33] Hi nisshh it's working after install, was just during the install that is crashed. [12:40] KE1HA: ah cool :) [12:42] 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. [12:55] KE1HA: ah yea [18:55] evening all [18:57] linux outlaws is called Neckbeards Unite! lol ben === sonicbadger is now known as ChrisWoollard === jenkins1 is now known as jenkins [19:09] * jenkins thanks his dad for unplugging the router [19:35] hello [19:35] are there any native english speakers herer [19:35] ? === Zeike is now known as brandonj [19:46] nschle85: yep [19:47] what are you stuck on?
