astraljavajussi: pong, check your email13:55
jussiastraljava: received, thanks13:56
astraljavajussi: That's enough?13:57
falktxhey guys14:35
astraljavaHey there.14:35
* abogani waves all14:44
astraljavahey there Alessio!14:48
scott-workhi falktx 15:48
scott-worki need some guidance on how to test the xfce patch15:48
scott-workhi abogani :)15:48
scott-workhi astraljava 15:48
scott-workfalktx: i have an xubuntu install and installed ardour, qjackctl, hydrogen, and rakarrack which also brought in jackd and other stuff15:49
scott-worki then installed the ubuntustudio-menu so i could see all the stuff in wrong places and then build the menu with the patch which should fix it15:49
scott-workbut when i installed the ubuntustudio-menu nothing seemed to change15:49
scott-workbefore i screw something up (like isntall ubuntustudio-settings or ubuntustudio-look) is there something else i need to do?15:50
* scott-work is about to go into another 1 hour meeting :( but i'll be back...in one hour ;)15:50
falktxscott-work: hm, maybe I forgot something in the patch... ?15:50
falktxscott-work: did you log out and log in back after the update?15:51
scott-workfalktx: i didn't build it yet, i only installed the ubuntustudio-menu from the repos15:53
scott-workfalktx: i expected to see hydrogen, et al in the wrong submenu category15:54
scott-workbasically i wanted to establish a baseline so i understood what the fix was and that it did in fact fix the problem15:54
scott-worksorry if i'm being an idiot and misunderstanding some fundamentally simple issue15:55
* scott-work is really gone now for 1 hour15:55
falktxscott-work: this can't be hard:15:56
falktxapt-get source ubuntustudio-menu15:56
falktxcd ubuntustudio-menu*15:56
falktxpatch -p1 < /my/patch15:56
falktxdebuild -rfakeroot15:56
falktxthen install the deb15:56
falktxif something goes wrong, re-install ubuntustudio-menu form synaptic15:57
scott-workfalktx: i think i am not adequately explaing myself17:46
scott-workfalktx: i know how to get source, apply patch, and build....i'm before that part17:46
scott-workfalktx: i installed the ubuntustudio-menu as it currently is...i wanted to see the appilcations in the wrong places17:47
scott-workbut the menu did not appear to be _any_ different than the default xfce menu17:47
falktx_scott-work: hm?17:50
scott-workfalktx_: i was given to understand that if i installed the ubuntustudio-menu in an xfce environment that the menu would be wrong17:50
scott-workapplicatiosn would be located incorrectly17:51
scott-worki tried to do that last night in an xubuntu installation....i installed the ubuntustudio-menu17:51
scott-workbut the menu did not appear to change from what was installed by default17:51
scott-workis there something that i am missing?17:51
falktx_I'm getting confuse here too17:52
falktx_scott-work: the current us-menu works, but items are some items not hidden in the xfce menu17:52
falktx_errr, bad typing...17:53
falktx_the current us-menu works, but there are some items not hidden in the xfce menu17:53
falktx_scott-work: ^17:53
scott-workright, like say ardour which should show up in the "Multimedia" menu but really should show up under "Audio & Video"17:54
scott-workfalktx_: is that correct?17:54
falktx_scott-work: err, Ardour will show up in the usual multimedia menu17:55
scott-workfalktx_: but we don't want it to right?17:55
falktx_Audio & Video = multimedia ?17:55
falktx_scott-work: we want some custom apps to go into the audio or video submenu i guess17:55
scott-workno, the xfce menu has a "Multimedia" menu17:55
falktx_scott-work: I wish you were right here so I can explain this better...17:56
scott-workmaybe we should back up a bit further....what is your xfce menu patch suppose fix?17:56
scott-worki thought you said that under xfce the ubuntustudio-menu didn't show applications in the categories that we intended them to be in17:57
scott-workthe [exclude] and [include] hacks didn't work under xfce as they did under gnome17:57
falktx_scott-work: ok, let me try to be as clear as possible18:02
falktx_1 - gnome does not always follow the rules (so seems xfce)18:02
falktx_the current us-menu work, as I see it, modifies the default gnome menu and inserts submenus18:02
scott-workright18:03
falktx_^ this is wrong, cause it will be gnome only18:03
scott-workokay18:03
falktx_(kde may or not work, xfce will not work, other DEs are untested)18:03
scott-work_how_ does xfce not work with ubuntustudio-menu?18:03
falktx_scott-work: ah, let me explain18:04
scott-workplease18:04
falktx_xfce and kde show the multimedia menu as usual18:04
falktx_but also show the "audio production" and "video production" introduced by us-menu18:04
falktx_so far so good18:04
scott-workwait!18:05
falktx_the problem is that the items inside "audio production" is not removed from the (parent) multimedia menu18:05
falktx_what?18:05
scott-workthat sounds good but i was unable to replicate this last night!18:05
falktx_scott-work: really?18:05
scott-workcan you describe a method that i can see this?18:05
scott-workfalktx_: yes, that is what i was trying to explain earlier18:05
scott-worki have a fresh xubuntu natty installation and then installed ardour, qjackctl, hydrogen, and rakarrack18:06
falktx_scott-work: with the default us-menu you should at least see the "audio/video production" sub-menus in xfce18:06
scott-workafter this installed i looked at the menu...sure enough, they appears in the "Multimedia" menu....this is expected18:06
falktx_yep18:06
scott-workthen i installed the ubuntustudio-menu18:06
falktx_k18:06
scott-workbut it didn't appear to add _anything_18:06
scott-worki did not see any additional submenus18:07
scott-worki was wondering if i was doing something wrong18:07
falktx_scott-work: did you logoff/rebooted after the install ?18:07
falktx_(us-menu install)18:07
scott-workno, i did not18:07
scott-worki shall do that tonight though!18:07
falktx_well, there's your problem!18:07
falktx_scott-work: after you install any type of custom menus, you'll have to reboot or at least logoff18:08
scott-worksee, i was doing something wrong!18:08
falktx_scott-work: that will show the new "audio/video P", but as described earlier here18:08
scott-workokay, i expect now to see some sort of hybrid menu with parts from both xfce and ubuntustudio18:08
scott-workafter that then i'll apply the patch, build the menu again, reinstall it, and then log off/on :)18:09
falktx_scott-work: the ISO script is doing it's business18:34
scott-workfalktx_: outstanding!  that is very exciting news18:34
falktx_I'm still downloading the packages (continuing from yesterday), but I hope to soon make it work for everyone18:34
astraljavaGah! Network's being a bitch! Can't work today at all. Hopefully it's better tomorrow... :(18:51
falktx_astraljava: network is a bitch to me everyday...!18:59
astraljavaAhh, that explains it, the local cable company is having serious problems.19:04
* falktx_ thinks some don't realize how luck they are19:06
holsteinyeah, i think that sometimes19:06
astraljavaWell, it's still a far cry when compared to Japan or Korea...19:06
holsteinwhen im upset that i cant stream netlix or something19:06
holsteinsitting around whinning with a 20Mb download speed ;)19:07
astraljavaHey! Only 12.8MB/s19:08
holsteinmy upload is pretty crappy, but still19:08
holsteinim fortunate19:08
falktx_errr19:09
falktx_I have (at "work") 2 Mb connection!!!!19:09
ailoIn Sweden I've heard there is a plan to give most of the citizens 100 mb by 2020, which is not really that much.19:09
ailoNot much considering it will be 202019:10
holsteini would be happy with a 10 or 15Mb both ways, up and download19:11
ailoIt really depends on the supplier I think. Most have a high download, but a low upload. Not everyone needs to upload high speed19:12
holsteinyup19:12
ailoThe main stream suppliers usually offer the standard deal19:12
holsteini just dont think i have a good buisness level provider in my area19:12
ailoHow about mobile internet?19:13
holsteinstill, i can get by just fine :)19:13
holsteinailo: nah, not here19:13
holsteinthats *really* bad here19:13
holsteinwe have decent 3g coverage or whatever19:13
holsteinit'll be years til the decent fast stuff is even some places downtown19:14
scott-workailo: lol, that is true19:17
scott-workre: "100mb by 2020"19:17
astraljavaI understand the grief. However, you must understand some basics about geography and economy.19:21
astraljavaMost of the Nordic countries must rely on fast networks.19:21
astraljavaWe're also considerably smaller countries than US, for instance.19:21
astraljavaThen if you take notice of the density of population in the Far East, you'll quickly learn why it is feasible for them to run optic fibre into the ground.19:22
astraljavaAlso, you must realize the human reliance to certain quality of service.19:23
astraljavaFor instance, I'm used to gaining access to ubuntu isos in a matter of few minutes.19:24
holsteinyeah, i take that for granted19:24
holsteini just DL them19:24
astraljavaNow, it takes more than that to see where my cursor is over a terminal connection to a server in a nearby city.19:24
astraljavaSo, I refuse to do any serious work in this situation, when I know that my efficiency heightens some 400% the next day, provided that the network regains it's normal quality of service.19:26
astraljavaGot cut off again... Hell, take this. A regular melodic progressive metal tune on Spotify is around 4 megabytes. Usually, it's here before I can say mydogjumpedoverthefenceandthenstoppedtolickhisballs.19:42
raboofhe was still licking his balls mid-jump? impressive.19:44
astraljavaI take pride over his training.19:44
