| head_victim | sagaci: pong from last night | 10:44 |
|---|---|---|
| sagaci | use UTC for meeting email? | 10:52 |
| sagaci | head_victim: ? | 10:53 |
| head_victim | I usually try to list it locally for each state, but as long as it's clear it shouldn't really matter too muhc | 10:54 |
| * head_victim slaps heads of people who continue to use "wastebin" and "trash" in enAU :/ | 10:54 | |
| somethinginteres | head_victim: haha, my thoughts exactly. I just did a fresh install of 11.04 and now send files to the "wastebin" | 10:55 |
| head_victim | I saw 2 or 3 different versions in the one unity package :/ | 10:55 |
| head_victim | It's MEANT to be "Rubbish Bin" as defined by our global leader enGB | 10:55 |
| head_victim | Natty has wastebin and I'm firing up oneiric to see what that has. | 10:56 |
| somethinginteres | head_victim: is it something anyone with a launchpad account can change? | 10:56 |
| head_victim | somethinginteres: pretty much, you have to be a member of the translation team but that's pretty open | 10:56 |
| head_victim | In oneiric it's "Trash" :/ | 10:57 |
| head_victim | I'm starting to think we might need to employ sagaci's idea of downloading the whole pot, grepping for "trash" and "waste" and "bin" and converting them all and uploading. | 10:57 |
| head_victim | If only we were close enough I'd go round and we'd knock it over in a day I'd reckon. | 10:57 |
| somethinginteres | head_victim: sounds like a plan! :) | 10:58 |
| sagaci | head_victim: interactively, not a blanket replace | 10:58 |
| head_victim | It's about 600mb download but the issue is the speed off launchpad isn't great. | 10:58 |
| head_victim | sagaci: yes, of course :) | 10:58 |
| sagaci | head_victim: the issue is uploading them back | 10:58 |
| sagaci | head_victim: are you changing over to the new 500gig bundle? | 10:59 |
| head_victim | Nope, I don't bundle, I've wangled a cheaper deal than any bundle could get me. | 11:00 |
| head_victim | But I"d easily have 10gb spare a month in my current 50gb allowance anyway, more when Lubuntu goes official and I don't have to torrent that anymore. | 11:00 |
| somethinginteres | Anyone know of a script that does all the optimisations from www.lesswatts.org automagicaly? | 11:01 |
| head_victim | somethinginteres: didn't know it even existed | 11:02 |
| somethinginteres | head_victim: nor did I until yesterday. I need it because my new netbook Toshiba NB550D just doesn't pack the punch I need. | 11:03 |
| head_victim | Lubuntu! | 11:03 |
| sagaci | downloading the base pack | 11:04 |
| sagaci | 588 mb | 11:04 |
| somethinginteres | head_victim: Ooo, you reckon just a change to something like Lubuntu would increase battery life a good amount? | 11:04 |
| head_victim | somethinginteres: not sure, if it's only battery power you're worried about probably not. | 11:05 |
| somethinginteres | head_victim: I should be clear that's what I meant. "pack a punch" I just realised sounded to much like "graphics power" :P | 11:05 |
| head_victim | sagaci: nice work, after it's done definitely email the launchpad group and say "oi, don't do it again!" I've had to change several back just tonight. | 11:05 |
| somethinginteres | head_victim: you'd think if a guideline was set out it'd be followed? That's a bit of hassle for the en_AU team | 11:06 |
| sagaci | head_victim: only getting 6mbit download from lp | 11:06 |
| head_victim | somethinginteres: all our guidelines for translation basically point back to the GB team | 11:06 |
| head_victim | sagaci: yeah that's going to be the issue. | 11:06 |
| sagaci | upload will be 1mbit at best for me | 11:07 |
| head_victim | If it were 6MB I'd be impressed though (I misread it the first time) | 11:07 |
| head_victim | somethinginteres: I'm pretty sure I saw something on phoronix showing that basically there was little to no different between Ubuntu flavours as far as power consumption goes. | 11:11 |
| somethinginteres | head_victim: rightyho. Seems like Windows wins the race as far as power consumption goes at the moment. Though things seem to be getting better each release | 11:12 |
| head_victim | somethinginteres: that's a bit scary | 11:13 |
| head_victim | sagaci: that's actually the main reason I detest PPAs and non official repositories, they're too slow when you need updates | 11:14 |
| sagaci | yeppers | 11:14 |
| sagaci | software in ubuntu finals are good enough / stable enough / "bleeding edge" enough for me anyway | 11:15 |
| head_victim | Yeah rarely I have to add something to get some odd piece of stuff to work (mobile phone syncing for example) | 11:16 |
| sagaci | finished dl | 11:16 |
| head_victim | But today's update on my oneiric VM was Fetched 99.4 MB in 32s (3,071 kB/s) | 11:16 |
| head_victim | Takes longer to install by far than it does to download these days. Used to be the other way around. | 11:16 |
| sagaci | takes longer to unpack/configuring via apt-get than the download itself | 11:17 |
| sagaci | i'll be back later | 11:18 |
| sagaci | head_victim, pin | 11:58 |
| sagaci | g | 11:58 |
| head_victim | sagaci: pon ;) | 11:58 |
| sagaci | head_victim, you know how you have unity --replace... what's the equiv for lxde | 12:01 |
| head_victim | lxde --replace ? | 12:02 |
| head_victim | Hang on, booting a vm to play and see if I can figure it out | 12:02 |
| sagaci | well it's more of a on boot the panel isn't showing, just the desktop icons - chromium and file manager | 12:09 |
| sagaci | tried running lxpanel but it says it's already running | 12:09 |
| head_victim | "lxpanelctl restart" | 12:11 |
| sagaci | i'll try that | 12:16 |
| sagaci | yep, that worked | 12:18 |
| sagaci | but it only happens every few boots | 12:18 |
| sagaci | weird | 12:18 |
| head_victim | What version? | 12:20 |
| head_victim | And any output to logs? | 12:21 |
| sagaci | sorry, just shut it down :P | 12:21 |
| sagaci | lubuntu 11.04, that 64-bit one | 12:21 |
| sagaci | on my netbook | 12:21 |
| head_victim | Ah ok, I haven't tried a 64bit one | 12:25 |
| sagaci | head_victim, around for a while? | 12:31 |
| head_victim | Gotta write a job app so I'd say so | 12:32 |
| sagaci | I've got a good command for you to try out | 12:33 |
| sagaci | meh, couldn't find it | 12:34 |
| sagaci | head_victim, the 588mb base unpacks to 4 gig | 12:35 |
| head_victim | What did it do? | 12:35 |
| sagaci | sorry, 3.4gig | 12:36 |
| head_victim | sagaci: cool so you've already downloaded it? | 12:36 |
| sagaci | yeah, did about an hour ago, just unpacked it then | 12:36 |
| sagaci | fyi http://paste.ubuntu.com/621685/ | 12:38 |
| sagaci | head_victim, looks like it only has a handful of .po's | 12:46 |
| head_victim | Hm really? | 12:46 |
| sagaci | well there's about 1300 templates in translations, only 697 .po's | 12:47 |
| head_victim | Oh, so handful = sarcastic | 12:47 |
| sagaci | well I'm just saying it's not equal to the amount on lp | 12:48 |
| head_victim | As long as it makes the "trash" become "rubbish bin" I'd be happy. It's annoying how many different ways it's written. | 12:49 |
| sagaci | i'm going to try to rename dialog to dialogue and reupload tomorrow to see if it works | 13:00 |
| sagaci | even catalog has 400 odd strings to be renamed | 13:01 |
| sagaci | it makes sense to do it this way rather than trawling through 95% of usual stuff that doesn't need to be touched | 13:02 |
| head_victim | Yeah, you know where the enGB stuff is don't you? It has a reasonable list of common words | 13:02 |
| head_victim | Last time I tried I had issues uploading because I must have done something wrong. I translated the whole of FF | 13:02 |
| sagaci | head_victim, email sent your way | 13:39 |
| head_victim | Replied ;) | 13:40 |
| head_victim | Nice work :) | 13:51 |
| sagaci | actually, I'm not going to touch that base pack I've downloaded just until I read up on it all a bit more | 13:53 |
| head_victim | Fair call. I'm sure there are people in -translations willing to help | 13:53 |
| sagaci | like I've still got the original tar.gz pack but I'll mess around and then redo it tomrrow | 13:53 |
| sagaci | s/tomrrow/tomorrow | 13:54 |
| head_victim | Yeah the upload part was the bit I stuffed up | 13:56 |
| sagaci | head_victim, how do you upload it, via dput or something? | 13:56 |
| head_victim | I was putting the pots back up | 13:56 |
| head_victim | But failed miserably | 13:56 |
| sagaci | yeah | 13:58 |
| sagaci | I downloaded the "active" base pack, dated 23-04-2011, surely that's not the correct way to do it | 13:59 |
| head_victim | Sorry mate, I know nothing on the topic that's why I decided to stick to web based until I'd read up on it a lot more | 13:59 |
| sagaci | and it's weird that you have to download the whole pack which has all translations, rather than just the subset -AU | 14:00 |
| sagaci | might be a tad harder than expected | 14:09 |
| head_victim | sagaci: as soon as Lubuntu goes official we should both lodge applications to get it mirrored on aarnet :P | 15:52 |
| sagaci | yeah, around alpha 3, you reckon? | 15:52 |
| head_victim | Not sure TBH, awaiting cdimage space apparently, that was in testing at the time of UDS | 15:53 |
| sagaci | anyway, off to sleep | 15:59 |
| sagaci | i'll talk to you later | 15:59 |
