rlameiroScottL: ping07:33
ScottLhi paultag, are you still working on flubuntu, or fubuntu, or fluxbuntu?21:24
ScottLholstein, are you around?21:24
paultagScottL, hey21:29
paultagScottL, yeah -- fluxbuntu is totally different, but fubuntu or flubuntu ( whatever it's going to be called ) -- yeah. I hope to have the seeds happy soon21:29
paultagerm scott-upstairs I guess :)21:29
scott-upstairslol yeah :)21:30
paultagscott-upstairs, https://launchpad.net/~paultag/+archive/fubuntu  <-- testing packages21:30
scott-upstairsbut that is sweet, and possibly good timing with all the concerns about GNOME and unity ;)21:30
paultagscott-upstairs, it installs great and looks OK. Needs some work, I think I'm going to shoot for O cycle21:30
paultagscott-upstairs, oooh, good point21:30
scott-upstairsfustudio21:30
scott-upstairslol21:30
paultagscott-upstairs, I think I'll finish getting it happy this weekend21:30
paultagscott-upstairs, hahahahaha yes :)21:31
scott-upstairspaultag, how difficult was it to replace GNOME with flux ?21:31
scott-upstairsjust removing the GNOME-desktop (or whatever it was) and adding the flux stuff?21:31
paultagscott-upstairs, I installed from minimal to test -- I've honestly never tried removing gnome and installing flux. My guess is you have to install flux, then remove gnome-desktop so it only removes what it needs to21:32
paultagscott-upstairs, otherwise you'll be removing / installing xorg ( and friends )21:32
paultagI should come up with a migration script eventually21:32
scott-upstairshrmm, that might make it difficult to build the ISO then, but kubuntu and xubuntu are doing it, maybe i should try to contact someone from their camp about it21:33
paultag:)21:34
scott-upstairsi doubt that i'd convince per.sia or the.muso about it, but it might be fun to replace gnome-desktop with flux in the seeds and build an ISO for one day a month during a build cycle....just to see what it would be like :P21:36
paultaghehehe21:36
paultagthat would be fun :)21:36
paultagBBL, wine tasting time :)21:39
scott-upstairsohhh, enjoy :)21:41
TheMusoscott-upstairs: if we really wanted to, we could carry flux as an alternative desktop on the disks, assuming we have the space.21:41
scott-upstairshi TheMuso :)  that is a really good idea21:41
scott-upstairsconsidering we currently use 1.7 gigs of a DVD i don't think that would be a problem either ;)21:41
TheMusoNo.21:42
TheMusoAnd we can abstract the seed files such that any apps we want on both desktops can be in a common file, so the main desktop files for each desktop variant only contain packages that are specific to that desktop.21:43
TheMusoWHich makes maintenance easier.21:43
scott-upstairsoh, which helps me understand the purpose of the desktop and desktop-common seeds21:44
scott-upstairsi had been idly and passively wondering about that, without devoting any cycles to it really21:45
scott-upstairsthis could be a really good idea :)21:45
TheMusoThe only issue is handling the desktop choice at install time...21:47
scott-upstairscould that be a task and use tasksel21:50
scott-upstairs?21:50
scott-upstairsis it possible to have multiple tasksel pages?  one for audio/graphic/video packages and another for desktop preference?21:51
TheMusoNo.21:53
TheMusoIt certainly could be a task, but its hard to indicate that the users need to choose one desktop.21:54
TheMusoWhat we could do, is show both desktops, ahve the GNOME desktop selected by default, but provide the alternative desktop, and indicate something the lines of being less resource intensive, or some other.21:55
TheMusoAnyway, afk.21:57
