| ScottL | ailo, i was using a different kernel i believe at that time which was in the repos | 01:17 |
|---|---|---|
| ScottL | so i was able to upload the -meta | 01:17 |
| ailo | ScottL, I was doing this with the natty kernel | 01:17 |
| ScottL | and i think i did everything just like it is described | 01:18 |
| ailo | Then there must be a problem with the current source for 2.6.38 | 01:18 |
| ailo | ScottL, The fakeroot step is missing from the instructions for the meta package. | 01:27 |
| ailo | ScottL, I suppose the procedure could be identical for the two. I was following the text very much step by step, not caring about what each step did yet | 01:28 |
| ailo | update the changelog, do the fakeroot thing, and then the debuild thing | 01:28 |
| ailo | After that upload | 01:28 |
| ailo | ScottL, New attempt. Seems to work. I'll delve deeper into this out of my own interest of course. Takes some time to read through all the specific setps | 01:41 |
| ailo | steps* | 01:41 |
| ailo | ScottL, a purdyne dev finally answered my mail | 03:23 |
| ailo | puredyne* | 03:24 |
| ailo | I suggested collaboration on testing/developing the kernel and having a common live image | 03:24 |
| ailo | Having a common way of making the live image, I mean | 03:25 |
| ailo | On XFCE, I cannot recommend anything, because at the moment US is about to be based on Xubuntu as I understand it, and puredyne has a much simpler setup | 03:25 |
| ailo | Their aim is to have an OS that works on P3 256MB machines | 03:26 |
| ailo | Or was.. | 03:26 |
| ailo | Also, I don't think they are interested in PA. | 03:26 |
| ailo | I'm really the wrong person to coordinate anything desktop-wise since that's not my area at all | 03:27 |
| ScottL | that good that a dev answered your email | 03:34 |
| ScottL | i don't think we can have a similar live image because we would be building them completely different probably | 03:35 |
| ScottL | and eww, working on a p3 256 mb machine? that's pretty damn low specs | 03:35 |
| TheMuso | ScottL: No, whenever I tried to get Andy, he was busy, and then I ended up being called away to something else. :( | 03:55 |
| ailo | ScottL, In any case, I would be interested to find out. Their live image is a very nice one. It's based on Debian stuff mostly. | 04:01 |
| ailo | ScottL, They are interested in a testing script, so hopefully they can be of help testing and having opinions on the kernel at least | 04:02 |
| ScottL | TheMuso, that is sad :( | 04:30 |
| ScottL | ailo, a testing script would be pretty interesting | 04:31 |
| TheMuso | ScottL: I'll email him next week, and ask him about it. I don't mind if he gives me turse instructions, I can make something out of them hoefully. | 05:15 |
| TheMuso | Anyway, off for the rest of the day. | 05:15 |
| holstein | should i say something to ralph? | 15:35 |
| holstein | mention the iso testing pages again? | 15:36 |
| holstein | i feel like he blasted out a 6 paragraph email about the look and feel of ubuntstudio 11.10 with XFCE | 15:36 |
| Kokito | hello folks | 17:01 |
| holstein | Kokito: damn | 17:02 |
| holstein | cant make it tomorrow :/ | 17:02 |
| Kokito | no, sorry | 17:02 |
| holstein | im not sure if i can, but im not really doing any UI work | 17:03 |
