| highvoltage | JanC: aah, I assumed it got rid of apt:// URLs entirely | 01:18 |
|---|---|---|
| JanC | special-casing a http: URL in all browsers would be an ugly hack? ;) | 01:20 |
| jcastro | maco: | 01:38 |
| jcastro | http://askubuntu.com/questions/6200/visio-files-in-ubuntu/6204#6204 | 01:38 |
| jcastro | add the information to your answer, not the comment | 01:38 |
| jcastro | consider comments throw away | 01:38 |
| maco | ok | 01:39 |
| jcastro | maco: woooooooooooooo, luke is around | 01:48 |
| maco | yeah i know | 01:49 |
| maco | he responded to my pm | 01:49 |
| maco | also, i just hit enough rep points to start editing too | 01:49 |
| jcastro | yup yup | 01:49 |
| jcastro | I need help tagging and formatting mostly | 01:49 |
| jcastro | basically, a flood of new people who are confused | 01:49 |
| jcastro | also you need to vote more on people who are doing the Right Thing | 01:50 |
| jcastro | you get 30 a day, make em count! | 01:50 |
| nhandler | jcastro: Is there a way to make askubuntu.com only show questions without answers? | 02:39 |
| jcastro | yes | 02:40 |
| jcastro | top bar, on the right | 02:40 |
| jcastro | unanswered questions | 02:40 |
| jcastro | look on askubuntu.com/faq at the bottom for ninja searching options | 02:40 |
| nhandler | jcastro: Thanks. I completely missed that. I was looking lower down. | 02:41 |
| jcastro | unanswered questions ftw | 02:41 |
| jcastro | nhandler: I recommend going for unanswered, sorted by # of votes | 02:41 |
| jcastro | that will get you the highest quality unanswered questions | 02:42 |
| nhandler | jcastro: That is what I planned on doing ;) | 02:42 |
| jcastro | nhandler: the problem is some people haven't figured out how to accept answers yet | 02:43 |
| jcastro | so the questions might have good answers already | 02:43 |
| jcastro | the questioner just hasn't checked the box yet | 02:43 |
| jcastro | (the site will remind them to accept answers when they return) | 02:43 |
| JanC | for those who can edit: http://askubuntu.com/questions/6229/is-there-wine-for-mac --> this title is confusing (there is a "wine for mac"--to run windows software on mac--but that's not what is wanted) | 02:44 |
| jcastro | I can edit | 02:44 |
| JanC | I can (re)tag, but not edit yet ;) | 02:45 |
| jcastro | it can be frustrating in the beginning | 02:50 |
| jcastro | but it does keep the junk out | 02:50 |
| nhandler | jcastro: I'm not so sure. I'm seeing a lot of posts by some guy named Jorge Castro. I think he might be a troll ;) | 02:54 |
| jcastro | I am being brutal | 02:54 |
| jcastro | I am totally quality driven, dotting ever i, crossing every t, etc. | 02:55 |
| nhandler | jcastro: You are doing a great job. Just stop stealing my questions ;) | 02:55 |
| jcastro | ok | 02:56 |
| jcastro | nhandler: dibs on the chrome question | 02:59 |
| nhandler | jcastro: Bleh, I can only post one hyperlink :( | 03:09 |
| nhandler | jcastro: Will I get in trouble for evading the check by putting the links in code tags? | 03:13 |
| jcastro | nhandler: I'll fix you up | 03:26 |
| nhandler | jcastro: http://askubuntu.com/questions/5791/webmin-seem-to-think-apache-isnt-started-when-it-really-is-in-10-10-how-do-i-fi | 03:26 |
| nhandler | Thanks a lot | 03:26 |
| JanC | webmin... | 03:31 |
| jcastro | indeed | 03:32 |
| nhandler | jcastro: Thanks. I think the 1up boosted my rep enough to not have that limit | 03:33 |
| jcastro | nhandler: when you get the rep to vote, concentrate on people who are being thorough and friendly | 03:34 |
| jcastro | http://askubuntu.com/users/570/andrewsomething | 03:34 |
| jcastro | he's got it going on with the easy to use answers ^^ | 03:34 |
| jcastro | the trick is to consolidate the quick off-the-hip answers into one mega answer with all the goodies | 03:35 |
| jcastro | http://askubuntu.com/questions/6253/whats-the-difference-between-google-chrome-and-or-chromium-what-are-the-advanta | 03:35 |
| jcastro | for example. :D | 03:35 |
| nhandler | jcastro: Yep. It is more like a FAQ style site. All of the good stuff in one easy to follow place | 03:36 |
| jcastro | yup | 03:36 |
| jcastro | new users go for speed "omg need the crack" | 03:37 |
| jcastro | but the way to do it is a nice long detailed answer | 03:37 |
| jcastro | to earn the rep while you sleep | 03:37 |
| jcastro | established SE sites get like 90%+ of their traffic from google, not the scrolling questions on the front page | 03:38 |
| jcastro | nhandler: nice job on the attribution | 03:39 |
| nhandler | jcastro: Thanks. That is one thing that I have learned from packaging, attributions made the original contributor feel good, and are also a good way to prevent problems down the road | 03:40 |
| jcastro | now that the forums are cc-wiki and so is this the opportunities to get better support for users is basically open ended | 03:41 |
| jcastro | nhandler: dang format man | 04:04 |
| jcastro | let me fix that one | 04:04 |
| * nhandler hugs jcastro | 04:05 | |
| jcastro | how's that? | 04:06 |
| nhandler | jcastro: Much better. So is current practice to put file paths in code tags? | 04:07 |
| jcastro | yes | 04:07 |
| jcastro | so people can paste the right file | 04:07 |
| jcastro | there's a formatting thing somewhere on meta.askubuntu.com | 04:07 |
| jcastro | I've edited the question to make more sense too | 04:08 |
| nhandler | jcastro: I'll look up some of the docs when I get some more time. I was just trying out the site as I haven't really paid much attention to it (gave it a brief try in private beta, but there weren't many people using it) | 04:08 |
| jcastro | yeah no worries | 04:09 |
| jcastro | oh dude | 04:09 |
| jcastro | I made a video | 04:09 |
| nhandler | jcastro: I saw some video mentioned about how to use the site. Is that yours? | 04:10 |
| jcastro | http://www.youtube.com/ubuntudevelopers#p/a/u/0/rDMsQNAl90Y | 04:10 |

| duanedesign | im making good progress on an app to put and view all my irssi logs in couchdb :) | 07:59 |
| AlanBell | duanedesign: I have half an IRC client written in couchdb | 08:02 |
| duanedesign | AlanBell: oh wow. What is it written in? | 08:03 |
| AlanBell | the plan was to do a server side thing that connects to your channels and logs messages to couch (that bit works) | 08:03 |
| AlanBell | then a quickly GUI that reads the couch database with views and such. Posting messages would be creating them in couchdb and then the server thing would post them for you | 08:04 |
| AlanBell | all in python | 08:04 |
| duanedesign | AlanBell: nice. I am working on the second part. A gui that reads the couch databases. | 08:07 |
| AlanBell | cool | 08:07 |
| nigelb | right, so team up and build one app :) | 08:07 |
| AlanBell | when I find the code I will stick it on launchpad somewhere | 08:08 |
| duanedesign | AlanBell: the first part mentioned sounds like a much better implementation then what i did so far. All mine does is look in ~/irclogs/ and put those in OCuch | 08:08 |

| * AlanBell waves http://libertus.co.uk:8080/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/213 at akgraner | 13:08 | |
| nigelb | oh, ew | 13:08 |
| nigelb | that needs fixing | 13:08 |
| AlanBell | however I have no idea whether it will look like that tomorrow or with the current light theme | 13:08 |
| AlanBell | what needs fixing nigelb? | 13:08 |
| nigelb | its an eyesore somehow | 13:08 |
| nigelb | or its probably just because I'm having a headache | 13:09 |
| AlanBell | oh the dots at the top? | 13:09 |
| AlanBell | that is an in-progress experiment which isn't going well | 13:09 |
| nigelb | heh | 13:09 |
| AlanBell | apart from that, is it better than the current wiki with the light theme enabled in preferences? | 13:10 |
| AlanBell | and if not, what exactly do I need to change? | 13:10 |
| AlanBell | *something* is going live tomorrow as the new default theme | 13:11 |
| akgraner | AlanBell, looks better than it did before | 13:11 |
| akgraner | by a mile | 13:11 |
| AlanBell | I think a little more spacing before the headings or something might improve it | 13:12 |
| akgraner | nods | 13:12 |
| akgraner | I like the headers in Purple oops I mean aubergine and the links in orange though | 13:12 |

| dholbach | maybe adiroiban or henninge in #ubuntu-translations can take over? | 14:57 |

| dholbach | james_w, I'm not sure how best to deal with crashes and locks - how would you do it? | 15:55 |
| james_w | dholbach, I'd just remove the file existence check | 15:55 |
| dholbach | probably best to log it and retry in the next cron run? | 15:55 |
| james_w | it will usually remove the file, but won't stop it running if the previous run crashed | 15:55 |
| dholbach | erm, which file existence check would you remove? on which line? :) | 15:57 |
| james_w | the first one :-) | 15:58 |
| james_w | so that the only thing stopping the code from running is whether it can get the lock or not | 15:58 |
| dholbach | ah | 15:58 |
| dholbach | ok | 15:58 |
| dholbach | I'll play around with it a bit | 15:59 |
| james_w | I think the second is redundant, but not really a problem | 15:59 |
| dholbach | thanks a lot for your advice there | 15:59 |
| dholbach | and thanks lots for your reviews | 15:59 |
| dholbach | I hope that with 0.2.2 out it's good enough to announce and attract a few others to help out :-D | 15:59 |
| james_w | great | 15:59 |
| james_w | thanks for all your work on it | 15:59 |
| dholbach | james_w, the thing I probably did best was not to get into other people's ways :-P | 16:00 |
| dholbach | jcastro, TLE and andrejz did a great job | 16:06 |

| jcastro | czajkowski: I've started doing just my intros predone | 16:27 |

| doctormo | But maybe next time jono? Is there any issue with having a screencast in an open week class? | 16:34 |

| jcastro | something like "Sysadmins, give us an hour to show you how great ubuntu-server is on EC2, and it's on us!" | 17:48 |

| jcastro | kim0: I've mentioned it to linuxjournal since I know them already | 17:48 |

| akgraner | well linux new media | 17:51 |
| jcastro | well, this isn't suited for print since it's only for a limited time | 17:51 |

| paultag | <paultag> doctormo, prod | 21:59 |
| paultag | <paultag> doctormo, I've been informed by the ubuntu studio folks you might need help with wizardpen | 21:59 |
| paultag | <paultag> doctormo, I'm here to offer any help you need :) | 21:59 |
| doctormo | paultag: Help, the problem is that it doesn't work in Maverick, only in Lucid. | 21:59 |
| doctormo | We're boned. | 22:00 |
| paultag | doctormo, what did you do? | 22:00 |
| doctormo | Nothing, that's why it doesn't work. Maverick has a new Xorg. | 22:00 |
| paultag | doctormo, what's stopping an upgrade to the new bindings? | 22:00 |
| doctormo | paultag: No programmers, no one with a wizardpen tablet to test any random code modifications. | 22:01 |
| paultag | hurmm. | 22:01 |
| paultag | doctormo, well let me do my homework | 22:04 |
| paultag | doctormo, I'll get back to you ( and hack away, and send the merge props ) if the stars align | 22:04 |
| paultag | doctormo, thanks man. Oh, are you going to be home over thanksgiving? | 22:04 |
| doctormo | paultag: We have a kernel driver which will apear sometime in the next few years which feeds wizardpen through wacom user space tools. That should clear things up. | 22:05 |
| paultag | Ahha | 22:05 |
| paultag | that would be nice. | 22:05 |
| doctormo | But it will take a while. | 22:05 |
| paultag | doctormo, Are you going to be home over thanksgiving? | 22:08 |
| paultag | doctormo, I'd love to head downtown again to meet up. We're about due for a coffee / tea | 22:08 |
| doctormo | paultag: We are! I don't think we have any plans for thanksgiving. I may end up in Vermont. | 22:14 |
| jono | doctormo, you don't like twitter, but want us to tweet for you? | 22:14 |
| jono | I guess there is logic buried in there somewhere :P | 22:15 |
| paultag | doctormo, awesome. I might be in either VT or NH as well as MA, I have no idea. I'll let you know when I know. I'll be back for about a week or so, so it should not be too too hard | 22:15 |
| doctormo | jono: I don't have time to build a community of contacts, where as you guys already have them built. | 22:15 |
| doctormo | 7 of 10 pages of Ubunchu chapter 07 done... hard work this one. | 22:16 |
| jono | doctormo, why don't you have time? | 22:16 |
| jono | you just set up a twitter account and send messages | 22:16 |
| jono | you don't actively build thre numbers up | 22:16 |
| jono | people just start to follow you | 22:16 |
| doctormo | jono: I already have a twitter account, @realdoctormo | 22:16 |
| jono | gotcha | 22:16 |
| jcastro | wait what! You could have at least posted so I didn't have to make up my post! | 22:17 |
| doctormo | I was ok with doing it when I had gwibber set up to post to everything at once, then I didn't need to care. | 22:17 |
| jono | doctormo, it still does that :) | 22:17 |
| paultag | Hey, jcastro -- The Ubuntu Free Culture Showcase -- is there a central website for it, or is just tags on other websites? | 22:17 |
| jcastro | there's a wiki explaining where the sites are somewhere | 22:18 |
| jcastro | probably /FreeCultureShowcase | 22:18 |
| paultag | Yeah, I read up on that | 22:18 |
| paultag | jcastro, if some hackers whipped up something, could it get Canonical's support? | 22:18 |
| paultag | ( hosting, an ubuntu subdomain, etc ) | 22:18 |
| jcastro | we talked about it at UDS | 22:19 |
| jcastro | best thing to do is put together an idea and plan | 22:19 |
| jcastro | then post it on -ayatana and see what people say | 22:19 |
| jcastro | then after you iterate a few times see what the design team says | 22:20 |
| paultag | jcastro, I was thinking of trying to do it as an Ubuntu Studio thing, and if it ends up coming out OK pushing it upstream | 22:20 |
| paultag | "upstream" | 22:20 |
| jcastro | yeah we've had sessions at UDS on why not have a content-centric focus for the FCS | 22:20 |
| jcastro | where we could bring in stuff from many sites | 22:20 |
| jcastro | and it would look "edgier" and all that | 22:20 |
| paultag | jcastro, rocken. Thanks Jorge | 22:20 |
| jcastro | though if it ends up being another django thing that gets left unmaintained and 2 years later it becomes my problem I will hunt you down. | 22:21 |
| paultag | jcastro, noted duly :) | 22:21 |
| doctormo | paultag: We'll be doing a session at UDS for the freeculture showcase, we have issues to work out. | 22:21 |
| paultag | jcastro, Good for me I don't know much django | 22:21 |
| jcastro | oh even better, some unmaintained phpnuke | 22:22 |
| jcastro | :p | 22:22 |
| paultag | doctormo, Rad. I'm going to try and do it for Ubuntu Studio. It will by F/OSS, I'll help a fork if it forks for Ubuntu it's self | 22:22 |
| paultag | be * | 22:22 |
| doctormo | paultag: I have a django website as well as a cchost website which I've developed and played with. | 22:22 |
| paultag | jcastro, I'll use C + CGI out of spite | 22:22 |
| jcastro | paultag: do they still make you guys use that made up language at OSU? | 22:23 |
| paultag | jcastro, Not a clue. I'm not at OSU | 22:23 |
| paultag | jcastro, Cleveland, man. And we use Java / C++ | 22:23 |
| jcastro | oh right | 22:23 |
| jcastro | Sorry, didn't mean to mix you up with haircut boy | 22:23 |
| paultag | jcastro, haha, aye aye. I think Jacob still has to use it | 22:24 |
| * jcastro is off to dinner, anyone have any burning issues? | 22:24 | |
| paultag | jcastro, that's a no. Run while you still can! | 22:24 |
| doctormo | jcastro: I retweeted your twot, thanks for the support. | 22:25 |
| doctormo | I remember for next time to pen myself and then pass on the link instead. | 22:26 |
