| iheartubuntu | In-N-Out sticker on Jono's computer HAAAAA | 19:08 |
| pleia2 | hahaha, ubuntu coffee cups :) | 19:08 |
| nhaines | I'm about to upgrade x.org, gdm, unity, software-center, apt-get, and upgrade-manager all at the same time. What could possibly go wrong? | 19:08 |
| iheartubuntu | nothing :) worked for me! | 19:09 |
| iheartubuntu | (although not on this comp) | 19:10 |
| iheartubuntu | id say thats a huge plus. i remember a few years back some beta updates i did crashed my system. | 19:10 |
| nhaines | That's a risk at any time in beta. | 19:12 |
| iheartubuntu | in my case, i have not had that happen for a long time, so +1 for Ubuntu! | 19:14 |
| akk | Ubuntu really does very well with upgrades. | 19:15 |
| akk | On another channel someone was getting all excited that SuSE was finally supporting upgrade-in-place | 19:15 |
| akk | and sheesh, that's been reliable for ubuntu for, what, 5 years? | 19:16 |
| nhaines | akk: that's what kept me off of Linux (and SuSE 9.2) back in 2003.... | 19:16 |
| akk | I remember it used to be a nightmare in Redhat, everybody always reinstalled instead of upgrading. | 19:16 |
| nhaines | And it's also what helped me switch in 2006 is that Ubuntu had upgraded just fine for the past year and a half. | 19:16 |
| pleia2 | wow, I had no idea they didn't spport them until now | 19:16 |
| nhaines | I appreciate that it is not an easy thing to do. Although it's really fun to see the Ubiquity installer support upgrades now. :) | 19:17 |
| akk | Little stuff always breaks in upgrades, but not because of the upgrade, just because of software changes. | 19:17 |
| akk | But no major things (knock silicon). | 19:18 |
| nhaines | Grr, now Unity isn't raising windows or assigning focus. | 19:34 |
| grantbow | pleia2: what's that bug # you were talking about? the unity soft keyboard. | 19:36 |
| pleia2 | grantbow: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/739812 | 19:37 |
| nhaines | Actually, it's not doing anything right now. Hmm, maybe I need another reboot. | 19:37 |
| grantbow | thanks | 19:37 |
| grantbow | jono: thanks for looking at that bug. I agree with pleia2 there's an issue there. | 19:56 |
| jono | grantbow, pleia2 I suspect this will be bumped to Ocelot - I agree with Mark that this does not inhibit the Ubuntu experience for a11y reasons, the classic mode still exists, but it will make Unity suck | 19:59 |
| jono | so we can still deliver an a11y experience via the classic mode, but Unity will be less compatible | 19:59 |
| jono | the a11y work bore great fruit, they just ran out of time | 19:59 |
