| nealmcb | funny you all should mention the reatek. That was the first problem I had with the lemur: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/585938 | 05:52 |

| lubotu1 | Launchpad bug 585938 in linux (Ubuntu) "r8192se_pci + powertop (iwpriv -a) = kernel panic" [Medium,Confirmed] | 05:52 |
| nealmcb | ToyKeeper: so what happened a month ago? Hungary ftw! | 05:55 |
| nealmcb | joey - join the party! | 05:55 |
| ToyKeeper | nealmcb: Oh, what happened is I got hired. | 09:41 |
| ToyKeeper | I'm not working directly on Ubuntu though; I'm doing infrastructure and support for the ISD team. | 09:42 |
| nealmcb | ToyKeeper: nice! | 14:48 |
| nealmcb | Headed out to the Farmer's market, then to Panera. Hope we have more than 2 for our local Ubuntu Global Jam :) | 17:36 |
| nealmcb | ...which is at 13:00 today, Panera - 29th st mall in Boulder | 17:37 |
| * nealmcb looks around for folks at panera.... | 20:21 | |
| nealmcb | w0jrl: joining the ubuntu global jam? | 20:30 |
| w0jrl | nealmcb, yes, I wanted to see what this is all about. | 20:31 |
| w0jrl | I am in Denver, so this is the only way I can join. | 20:32 |
| nealmcb | w0jrl: is that Nick? | 20:33 |
| w0jrl | My name is Jeremy | 20:33 |
| nealmcb | welcome to the jam. Did you see the link I posted earlier on how to contribute? | 20:34 |
| nealmcb | what sorts of things are you interested in? | 20:35 |
| w0jrl | I have not read it yet. I have been working a few minor bugs with the Orca screen reader. | 20:35 |
| nealmcb | sweet. Which bugs? | 20:36 |
| w0jrl | main sugesting ways to the list to make orca work with natty | 20:36 |
| w0jrl | at the moment, orca is very unstable in unity. in my testing I couldn't access things like the applications menu or the notification ariea. There are alot of keyboard shortcuts missing. | 20:39 |
| nealmcb | yum. I hope that doesn't happen with many apps.... I Haven't tried natty yet. | 20:41 |
| nealmcb | hopefully that's because screen readers are doing unusual things.... | 20:43 |
| w0jrl | Word to the wise, try it in a VM if you can. | 20:43 |
| w0jrl | Well, part of the issue is that events that need to be passed to orca aren't geting there. | 20:45 |
| w0jrl | for example, the new launcher (as I understand it gos down the left side of the screen) is not accessible at all. This is a real bummer for me because I am a blind user, and need items on that bar to be spoken. | 20:49 |
| nealmcb | Yeah - that sounds like a pretty big issue. Are there any alternatives to Orca, or is really a Unity problem? | 20:52 |
| nealmcb | Welcome, Nick! | 20:52 |
| === Nick is now known as Guest95671 | ||
| nealmcb | 3 of us now - w0jrl (Jeremy) also | 20:53 |
| Guest95671 | Thanks finally figured out how to join an IRC, haha. | 20:53 |
| nealmcb | great | 20:53 |
| Guest95671 | Hi Jeremy | 20:53 |
| Guest95671 | Hello Neil; you can disregard my last email obviously | 20:54 |
| nealmcb | (Neal) | 20:54 |
| Guest95671 | Oh, sorry Neal | 20:54 |
| w0jrl | I am also trying to figure out a way to create an all-in-one scanning/ocr solution that is accessible. The default scanning tool in ubuntu is nice, but there is no way to tell what I scanned, or even if I have the sheet placed on the bed correctly. | 20:54 |
| w0jrl | hello | 20:55 |
| nealmcb | :) | 20:55 |
| nealmcb | w0jrl: Sounds like another great place to contribute! | 20:56 |
| Guest95671 | What is a good open source IRC client. I had to 'evaluate mIRC' in windows and want to join with my Ubuntu system next time | 20:56 |
| w0jrl | If you all use smilies, will you put a text description beside them please? Orca has no idea what they are. | 20:57 |
| nealmcb | I've used both irssi (for folks that like fast flexible text-oriented stuff) and pidgin | 20:57 |
| w0jrl | empathy does well with irc. | 20:58 |
| Guest95671 | Oh, I didn't even think of Pidgin....wow. | 20:58 |
| Guest95671 | I just installed Ubuntu again on my new laptop and haven't quite had the time to configure everything | 20:58 |
| w0jrl | I am using empathy at the moment. | 20:58 |
| nealmcb | w0jrl: do you mean graphical smilies in something like pidgin, or text smilies like the :) smiley | 20:59 |
| w0jrl | gui | 20:59 |
| w0jrl | graphival | 21:00 |
| Guest95671 | You gents going to be here for a bit? | 21:01 |
| w0jrl | yeah | 21:01 |
| Guest95671 | I need to get my little one to sleep, takes me about an hour. | 21:02 |
| nealmcb | I may head home soon | 21:02 |
| w0jrl | I'm guessing there no one at your location neal? | 21:02 |
| Guest95671 | Sorry to not keep your physical company there, Neal | 21:03 |
| Guest95671 | gotta take care of naptime, ha. see you folks in a bit. | 21:04 |
| nealmcb | Right - just me at Panera. | 21:04 |
| w0jrl | I wish I could be there as well, but bus travel from Denver can be a pain in the ***. | 21:04 |
| nealmcb | I can believe that. And the virtual world can work really well :) | 21:07 |
| w0jrl | yes | 21:07 |
| nealmcb | Well, I'm gonna walk home now. Such a beautiful day. | 21:13 |
| nealmcb | (in case you missed that...) Well, I'm gonna walk home now. Such a beautiful day. | 21:14 |
| w0jrl | ok | 21:14 |
| w0jrl | If you get bavk on, I'll be here. | 21:15 |
| nealmcb | Thanks again for joining in and helping out, w0jrl! Hope to meet you in person some day | 21:15 |
| nealmcb | Great | 21:15 |
| w0jrl | I hope to meet you in person as well. | 21:15 |
| nealmcb | And my irc client is on a proxy at home, so I'll see what is posted while I'm gone | 21:16 |
| w0jrl | neet! Do you login using ssh? | 21:16 |
| Guest95671 | Hey, sorry. I'm back now | 22:28 |
| nealmcb | ahhh - just missed them.... | 22:39 |
