| hajour | i know Pendulum it was mend for info foe everybody | 18:20 |

| hajour | i wonder who have that kind ideas often | 18:21 |

| jledbetter | hajour, Of course. I was wondering if this was related to last night's meeting or not. I'd be happy to help. | 18:25 |
| hajour | i have note s what need to be make better in ubt | 18:25 |
| hajour | for to be able to help people better | 18:26 |
| jledbetter | hajour, Sounds great. | 18:26 |
| hajour | i will explain later i have to eat in about 10 minutes | 18:27 |
| hajour | o btw do they already know who become the 2 new council members? | 18:27 |
| jledbetter | hajour, No worries. I have a meeting soon anyway :) Can always email it to me. | 18:27 |
| jledbetter | hajour, Nope. Voting just opened. There are 5 up for it and one is me. | 18:28 |
| hajour | i not sure i have your email jledbetter | 18:28 |
| jledbetter | Inc then :) | 18:28 |
| hajour | have you got a link jledbetter ? if i may vote | 18:28 |
| jledbetter | hajour, I got an email with a link generated just for me so I assumed everyone in the team did. Hm. | 18:29 |
| hajour | what means inc? | 18:29 |
| hajour | i will go check after diner then | 18:30 |
| jledbetter | Sorry about that. inc means "incoming." I just gave it to you via PM | 18:30 |
| hajour | a ok thank you jledbetter | 18:30 |
| jledbetter | Very welcome hajour | 18:30 |
| hajour | o and Pendulum i hope you will feel some better soon | 18:31 |
| AlanBell | jledbetter: is there a list of the candidates? | 18:42 |
| jledbetter | AlanBell, I only know of the list on the url where I vote and that's unique so I can't pass it around. Not sure why it's not in the email sent to everyone. Let me check the list again. | 18:43 |
| AlanBell | I am not on the UBT mailing list | 18:45 |
| AlanBell | if it is civs you should have a link to the results page which is not personal I think | 18:45 |
| AlanBell | id=E_6753d86bd0b619e3 | 18:46 |
| AlanBell | that part, without the key is the poll ID | 18:46 |
| cprofitt | hey AlanBell | 18:47 |
| AlanBell | hi cprofitt | 18:47 |
| jledbetter | Ah, didn't know. Great :) | 18:52 |
| jledbetter | Nope, it wants both. | 18:53 |
| jledbetter | It was: hggdh, silverfox, darkwingduck, pablo, me | 18:55 |
| AlanBell | I think results.pl is fine without the key, but vote.pl needs both | 18:57 |
| AlanBell | however that is the info I was after | 18:57 |
| AlanBell | testimonials could do with some padding out https://wiki.ubuntu.com/jledbetter | 18:58 |
| jledbetter | AlanBell, Results page says "This poll (Ubuntu Beginners Team Council Election 2011) has not yet been ended by its supervisor, Nathan Handler (nhandler) (nhandler@ubuntu.com). The poll has been announced to end Wed Mar 23 23:59:59 UTC 2011." so that wouldn't work for seeing people either. | 18:58 |
| jledbetter | AlanBell, I know. I'm horrible about asking for them and only just added that a bit ago. | 18:59 |
| AlanBell | ah, ok | 18:59 |
| AlanBell | it is a good bit to add :) | 18:59 |
| AlanBell | have you announced to your loco team that you are standing and would appreciate testimonials? | 19:00 |
| jledbetter | Nope. Good idea again :) | 19:05 |
| phillw | Pendulum: are you about, as this tired little drone needs to get some sleep :D | 22:18 |
| Pendulum | phillw: yep | 22:18 |
| phillw | jono: could you have a read of http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#nocloakonjoin | 22:19 |
| phillw | Pendulum: would you PM me please | 22:20 |
| jono | phillw, eh? | 22:20 |
| phillw | jono your cloak is not being applied! | 22:20 |
| jono | phillw, weird, I am registered with nickserv | 22:20 |
| jono | is it a big deal/ | 22:21 |
| phillw | jono: not to me, but it gives your IP address away! | 22:21 |
| jono | phillw, I am not that bothered about that :-) | 22:22 |
| jono | one sec | 22:22 |
| jono | phillw, weird I am reg with nickserv, it should work | 22:23 |
| hajour | jono if they know your ip adress then its easier to hack you | 22:26 |
| AlanBell | I tried booting natty with the accessible option today | 22:27 |
| AlanBell | not a resounding success | 22:27 |
| AlanBell | you press space shortly after boot (no audio prompt or feedback) | 22:33 |
| TheMuso | AlanBell: Whats up with it? | 22:33 |
| AlanBell | then return for English, F5 for accessibility menu, down, down, down to choose screen reader, enter, enter to start running the live CD | 22:33 |
| AlanBell | then you get the drums and it says "Welcome to Orca. Current desktop environment is Unity. Orca Screen Reader slash Magnifier Frame. Preferences Button" | 22:34 |
| AlanBell | for a start, it isn't running Unity - I have no 3d drivers in the VM yet so it fell back to classic | 22:34 |
| TheMuso | Whoops, I need to address that a little better then. :) | 22:35 |
| AlanBell | it is just a crazy silent sequence to get it running | 22:35 |
| AlanBell | and it isn't helpful when it starts | 22:35 |
| TheMuso | AlanBell: Right, I have some ideas as to how that can be improved somewhat, but they will have to wait till the O cycle to do them. | 22:35 |
| TheMuso | How is it not helpful when it starts? | 22:35 |
| AlanBell | first thing I want it to say is "Welcome to *Ubuntu*" | 22:35 |
| TheMuso | That can be changed, but will break translations. | 22:36 |
| TheMuso | Not sure if its wise this late. | 22:36 |
| AlanBell | then "this is the Orca Screen reader, would you like to know how to use me?" | 22:36 |
| AlanBell | or something like that | 22:36 |
| TheMuso | AlanBell: Again, agreed. I wish I knew this earlier. | 22:36 |
| TheMuso | I could have had more time and allowance to fix such issues. | 22:36 |
| TheMuso | AlanBell: Plesae file a bug against Orca detailing your suggestinos. | 22:37 |
| TheMuso | gnome-orca even | 22:37 |
| AlanBell | http://www.theopensourcerer.com/2010/08/13/going-headless/ | 22:37 |
| AlanBell | I will file a bug | 22:37 |
| AlanBell | or two | 22:37 |
| TheMuso | AlanBell: Thanks. | 22:37 |
| hajour | TheMuso, have they solve the bug already? | 22:38 |
| TheMuso | hajour: WHich one? | 22:38 |
| hajour | from orca | 22:38 |
| TheMuso | Which one? | 22:38 |
| hajour | you install it | 22:38 |
| hajour | then put it on | 22:38 |
| hajour | we lost by the hack all info | 22:38 |
| hajour | thats why i describe it | 22:39 |
| TheMuso | I still don't understand. | 22:39 |
| hajour | after a few seconds your pc shut down | 22:39 |
| hajour | you get orca from your pc | 22:39 |
| AlanBell | do you have a bug number hajour? | 22:39 |
| hajour | but the pc stays over sand over shutting down | 22:39 |
| hajour | not anymore hack remember | 22:40 |
| hajour | much damage by undifineds pc | 22:40 |
| hajour | it was direct to gnome | 22:40 |
| hajour | where we have report the bug to | 22:40 |
| AlanBell | who reported it? | 22:41 |
| hajour | UndiFineD, | 22:41 |
| hajour | i hope it is resolved you see i need a speech program | 22:42 |
| hajour | i not remember good what i read | 22:42 |
| hajour | but what i hear i remember | 22:42 |
| hajour | is that understandable? | 22:42 |
| hajour | AlanBell, ^ | 22:44 |
| hajour | i mean have i explained it good? | 22:44 |
| AlanBell | I am unable to find any bugs on the gnome bugzilla containing an email address containing UndiFineD or dejong | 22:45 |
| hajour | TheMuso, i not new you was informed of that,that's why i said it | 22:45 |
| hajour | because its probably his old email | 22:46 |
| hajour | and that email is destroyed | 22:46 |
| AlanBell | all I want to do is search for the bug | 22:47 |
| hajour | UndiFineD, knows it his old email | 22:47 |
| AlanBell | is there anything you recall about the bug which might assist in searching for it? | 22:47 |
| hajour | its so bad we lost a lot by that hack | 22:47 |
| hajour | i have asked UndiFineD | 22:48 |
| hajour | he is typing | 22:48 |
| UndiFineD | https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=637621 | 22:49 |
| ubot2 | Gnome bug 637621 in speech "Orca crashes, logs me out" [Major,Resolved: invalid] | 22:49 |
| UndiFineD | but now that i have a different machine, and 2 reinstalls later, I cannot retreive any useful info anymore | 22:49 |
| AlanBell | ok, so that bug isn't an orca bug | 22:50 |
| AlanBell | and is a configuration issue on whatever machine it is | 22:51 |
| hajour | it was am pc | 22:51 |
| AlanBell | Launchpad is there so that bugs can be reproduced and improved before being pushed upstream | 22:51 |
| hajour | -m | 22:51 |
| hajour | UndiFineD, and by my eeepc to/notebook | 22:52 |
| AlanBell | bug 732315 | 23:05 |
| ubot2 | Launchpad bug 732315 in gnome-orca "Orca fails to pick up on fall back to 2d desktop from Unity" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/732315 | 23:05 |
| UndiFineD | not the same, we dont use unity (yet), no mention of odd behaviour like being logged out | 23:09 |
| AlanBell | bug 732318 | 23:09 |
| ubot2 | Launchpad bug 732318 in gnome-orca "Session starts with "Welcome to Orca" rather than "Welcome to Ubuntu"" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/732318 | 23:09 |
| AlanBell | UndiFineD: I just filed that, your one would be solved with a clean install I expect | 23:10 |
| phillw | AlanBell: would you be so kind as to drop meetingology into ##sii-general (PM me if you want to what and why SII is). | 23:10 |
| AlanBell | it isn't a bug | 23:10 |
| UndiFineD | oh ok :) | 23:10 |
| UndiFineD | got you there AlanBell , I misunderstood | 23:11 |
| UndiFineD | the Welcome to Orca, isnt that a translation bug ? I think I translated that to Orca in nl_NL too | 23:12 |
| AlanBell | no, it is going to be a controversial Ubuntu vs Gnome policy kind of bug I should think | 23:13 |
| AlanBell | and the tutorial thing would be a new feature really | 23:14 |
| AlanBell | bug 732320 | 23:19 |
| ubot2 | Launchpad bug 732320 in ubiquity "no audio clues on how to get into the accessible install with screen reader" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/732320 | 23:19 |
| hajour | well AlanBell will you let me know if the important bugs are resolved from orca? and i hope the voice is more improved | 23:20 |
| hajour | when i mean | 23:20 |
| hajour | i go try to sleep good night | 23:22 |
| AlanBell | the voice won't be improved in any orca bugs because that is not part of orca | 23:22 |
| hajour | where is the voice from then | 23:23 |
| hajour | AlanBell, | 23:23 |
| AlanBell | espeak I think | 23:23 |
| hajour | mmm ok | 23:23 |
| AlanBell | but orca uses speech-dispatcher and by default speech dispatcher uses espeak | 23:24 |
| hajour | i wil talk to rainct then | 23:24 |
| AlanBell | which sounds pretty nasty, but is small and fits on the CD | 23:24 |
| hajour | tomorrow i go put a mail to speechcontrol team in evening | 23:25 |
| AlanBell | if you want orca with a nice voice then that needs a speech dispatcher plugin to be written that sends the text that orca wants to say over to openMary or something else | 23:25 |
| AlanBell | and no, openMary won't ever end up on the CD | 23:25 |
| hajour | i thought it was already made? | 23:25 |
| TheMuso | AlanBell: Espeak certainly isn't the best sounding synth around, but it is hella efficient at high speeds, something jstu about all human sounding synths can't manage. | 23:26 |
| AlanBell | yes, I understand that | 23:26 |
| AlanBell | how fast can you listen? | 23:26 |
| TheMuso | The well known IBM ViaVoice/Eloquence is based on similar technology to espeak, which is why its so damn popular. | 23:27 |
| TheMuso | Well I currently have espeak with speech-dispatcher crankced up to full. Not sure how many words per minute that is,. | 23:27 |
| TheMuso | gah typing. | 23:27 |
| TheMuso | AlanBell: And thanks for those bug refs, I will take a look at them now and process them accordingly. | 23:27 |
| hajour | http://bloc.eurion.net/archives/2010/espeak-gui-0-2/comment-page-1/ | 23:28 |
| hajour | thats the last i had get | 23:28 |
| hajour | AlanBell, TheMuso ^ | 23:29 |
| AlanBell | I don't understand hajour, what are we supposed to be looking at? | 23:29 |
| hajour | i dont know thats my question | 23:29 |
| hajour | i said i needed a light weight plugin | 23:30 |
| hajour | and get this link | 23:30 |
| hajour | so .... | 23:30 |
| hajour | what is the meaning from that | 23:30 |
| hajour | and how can that help me | 23:30 |
| hajour | there by it have such small fonts i cant read that | 23:31 |
| hajour | maybe weird questions | 23:33 |
| hajour | i don't know | 23:33 |
| AlanBell | I don't know either, it does not seem to relate to wanting a speech dispatcher interface to a different text to voice engine | 23:33 |
| hajour | well they had suggest espeak i told it was to heavy for my eeepc | 23:34 |
| AlanBell | espeak is very light | 23:34 |
| hajour | then they said there was a light waith plugin | 23:34 |
| AlanBell | I still think you need to get yourself a more suitable computer | 23:35 |
| hajour | espeak takes all on from gnome | 23:35 |
| hajour | what i not need | 23:36 |
| hajour | and that makes it to heavy | 23:36 |
| AlanBell | espeak has gnome dependencies?? | 23:36 |
| hajour | yes | 23:36 |
| AlanBell | espeak-gui perhaps | 23:36 |
| hajour | we had searched what was the problem you see | 23:37 |
| hajour | and discovered that if you instal espeak | 23:37 |
| hajour | espeak automatic download all from gnome | 23:37 |
| hajour | you cant stop it | 23:38 |
| AlanBell | I am surprised | 23:38 |
| hajour | result is you memory is full and then eeepc not working anyore result reinstall all | 23:38 |
| AlanBell | however, gnome is the default desktop | 23:38 |
| hajour | but you need not all from gnome | 23:39 |
| AlanBell | I will try it on a minimal or server install tomorrow | 23:39 |
| hajour | resolve the automatic download and then will espeak be useble for light weight pc s | 23:39 |
| AlanBell | what desktop are you using? | 23:40 |
| AlanBell | desktop environment, like KDE or something? | 23:40 |
| hajour | eeepc 901 | 23:40 |
| hajour | lubuntu | 23:40 |
| AlanBell | hmm, lxde | 23:40 |
| AlanBell | I think we have an eeepc 901 somewhere | 23:41 |
| AlanBell | runs gnome just fine | 23:41 |
| hajour | KDE and ubuntu where to heavy | 23:41 |
| hajour | 1gb menory | 23:41 |
| hajour | memory | 23:42 |
| hajour | 16 gb harddisk | 23:42 |
| hajour | AlanBell, ⁶ | 23:42 |
| hajour | ^ | 23:42 |
| AlanBell | actually it isn't a 901 we have, it is an asus 1008HA | 23:43 |
| AlanBell | however 1gb memory is plenty for gnome, and 16GB disk is fine | 23:43 |
| hajour | i need also memory for files | 23:44 |
| hajour | lubuntu works good | 23:44 |
| hajour | but it cant handle if all from gnome comes in | 23:44 |
| AlanBell | yeah, feel free to use lubuntu if you prefer that | 23:44 |
| hajour | i not have a choice AlanBell | 23:45 |
| hajour | with ubuntu i get many times screen freeze | 23:45 |
| AlanBell | however we are targetting the main audience on Ubuntu with Gnome | 23:45 |
| hajour | yes i know | 23:45 |
| AlanBell | night all o/ | 23:47 |
| hajour | o btw AlanBell i go put in some to next ubuntu meeting about improve upstream guiding from ubt | 23:47 |
| hajour | night AlanBell | 23:47 |
| hajour | i go sleep also | 23:48 |
| hajour | good night all or anway i go try | 23:49 |
