mhall119 | did I miss the linux-edu broadcast? | 00:10 |
---|---|---|
dinda | mhall119: yes, looks like we're an hour late | 00:25 |
mhall119 | :( | 00:33 |
mhall119 | hope it went well | 00:33 |
Raziel | hello there | 08:14 |
Raziel | i'm new to edubuntu and ltsp in general | 08:15 |
Raziel | just wondering, once edubuntu is installed and configured to serve LTSP, what to install on thin client ? | 08:15 |
alkisg | Nothing, you just need to configure them to boot from lan | 08:17 |
Raziel | alkisg: once installed edubuntu, what to configure on the server ? | 09:27 |
alkisg | Did you install ltsp-server from the live cd? | 09:27 |
mhall119 | highvoltage: jonathan riddell rejected xdg-launcher from the archives | 12:39 |
daker | OH!! | 12:56 |
daker | mhall119, i have a new and nice way to rewrite the launcher ツ | 12:56 |
daker | found* | 12:56 |
mhall119 | ? | 12:57 |
daker | something better | 12:59 |
daker | i'll show when it's ready | 12:59 |
mhall119 | ok | 12:59 |
daker | i didn't starts yet | 12:59 |
mhall119 | just remember to keep it simple and small | 12:59 |
daker | yes | 13:00 |
daker | don't worry | 13:00 |
daker | mhall119, have you seen the merge proposal for bug 689013 ? | 13:04 |
ubottu | Launchpad bug 689013 in xdg-launcher "Only show launchers marked 'show'" [Critical,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/689013 | 13:04 |
mhall119 | daker: don't get too comfortable with the name... | 13:15 |
mhall119 | motu's are telling me we've got to remove all references to XDG in the files and packages before it'll be accepted into Universe | 13:15 |
daker | hmm | 13:16 |
mhall119 | ;w 36 | 13:16 |
mhall119 | daker: does your patch actually change anything? | 13:27 |
mhall119 | it looks like you're telling it to add in the excluded ones, then going and skipping them later on | 13:27 |
daker | mhall119, yes | 13:27 |
daker | mhall119, test it | 13:28 |
daker | it will work | 13:28 |
mhall119 | when testing your last patch, un-ticking the checkbox in alacarte made the items disappear from the launcher | 13:28 |
mhall119 | I don't doubt it will work, I just think it was already working | 13:28 |
mhall119 | I think switching from xdg.Menu to gmenu fixed that for me | 13:28 |
mhall119 | which is why I marked it invalid | 13:29 |
daker | hmm wired | 13:29 |
daker | are you using ubuntu or xubuntu ? | 13:30 |
mhall119 | Ubuntu | 13:30 |
mhall119 | you? | 13:30 |
daker | Ubuntu | 13:30 |
daker | brb | 13:32 |
highvoltage | mhall119: ok, checking my emails right now.. | 13:40 |
highvoltage | mhall119: ah, just saw it, can you address what riddell said in the next revu upload? | 13:42 |
mhall119 | highvoltage: he wants it all renamed | 14:03 |
mhall119 | he doesn't want xdg in here at all | 14:03 |
mhall119 | the depends issue is already fixed though | 14:04 |
mhall119 | 08:10 < Riddell> I'd think application-launcher-panel or application-menu-panel is more along the lines | 14:05 |
highvoltage | mhall119: well, I think he's slightly more strict than he needs to be about that, but he is right | 14:09 |
highvoltage | except that imho application-launcher-panel or application-menu-panel is too generic | 14:09 |
mhall119 | yeah, I thought so too | 15:06 |
daker | q-launcher ? | 15:09 |
mhall119 | it'll either be qimo-launcher, or some new non-generic name | 15:10 |
daker | oooook | 15:10 |
mhall119 | I'm considering a recursive acronym | 15:11 |
mhall119 | like ?nx-launcher, for "?NX is Not XDG" | 15:12 |
daker | hhh | 15:15 |
puppydog | Hello? | 19:20 |
mhall119 | hi | 19:20 |
puppydog | Mind giving me some help? im at my wits end | 19:20 |
mhall119 | depends on whether or not I can help | 19:20 |
mhall119 | what's going on? | 19:20 |
puppydog | Well, my problem is this. I have a machine here that i am trying to install ubuntu 10.10 on but when i put the disk in and it comes up the screen is hazy as if not syncing and i can get up to a sertain point in the software download before it just stops allowing me to hit next | 19:21 |
puppydog | Have any advice? | 19:25 |
mhall119 | hmmm, sounds like a hardware issue, either bad driver, not enough RAM, or something failing | 19:26 |
puppydog | You see, it works with the windows thats on it just fine. i ahve 8 gigs of ram setup for this as well | 19:27 |
puppydog | maybe should i try the 32 bit version instead of the 64? | 19:27 |
mhall119 | wow, 8 gigs, okay not ram | 19:28 |
mhall119 | this is just regular Ubuntu? | 19:28 |
puppydog | strait from the website, ive even thought the CD i burned was bad so i made six coppies so far, everyone does this | 19:29 |
mhall119 | try asking in #ubuntu, that's the main support channel | 19:29 |
mhall119 | this one is mainly for the educational DVD and packages | 19:30 |
puppydog | I have, no one seemed to pay attentin | 19:30 |
puppydog | oh, well i feel dumb >< | 19:30 |
puppydog | Thank you so much for the help | 19:30 |
mhall119 | it's usually busy in there, you'll have to be patient and sometime re-ask periodically | 19:30 |
puppydog | Thank you, i will do that. Thank you againf or the help | 19:30 |
mhall119 | no problemm | 19:31 |
mhall119 | though I didn't really help much now did I? | 19:31 |
daker | mhall119, do you wan to see a new updated xdg launcher :D ? | 23:10 |
