grantbow | not yet | 00:00 |
---|---|---|
DarkwingDuck | I don't think he has left just yet. | 00:00 |
DarkwingDuck | speaking of... LOL | 00:00 |
grantbow | 9 days before I leave | 00:00 |
grantbow | great minds think alike | 00:00 |
MarkDude | Are we having a meeting? Is grantbow in Africa yet? Where is the link to the pics from the picnic? | 00:30 |
pleia2 | MarkDude: you should read twitter more often :) | 00:32 |
DarkwingDuck | LOL | 00:32 |
* MarkDude is down with Twitter more for job related stuff. I am at social media overload. | 00:34 | |
MarkDude | helping people from range of hevy metal crazy to yoga instructors with it. I think the extremes have got to me. That and I still cant wrap my mind around Dangerous G in Nairobi | 00:35 |
* aaditya appears out of nowhere. | 01:50 | |
DarkwingDuck | Woah! Where you come from? :P | 01:50 |
aaditya | I landed on this planet about 48 seconds ago! | 01:51 |
aaditya | Is this the orange planet of unity? ;) | 01:52 |
DarkwingDuck | Nawww, It's the Blue planet of Plasma :P:P | 01:53 |
DarkwingDuck | This is sooooo strange. | 01:54 |
DarkwingDuck | I have an AMD64 chipset in my desktop/server | 01:54 |
DarkwingDuck | But, 64bit installs don't work on it... | 01:54 |
aaditya | Ow, you did not just talk about that F word! | 01:54 |
DarkwingDuck | 32 bit just did. | 01:54 |
aaditya | That's weird. What's the error message? | 01:55 |
DarkwingDuck | No, not the F word... the K word. | 01:55 |
DarkwingDuck | It wont install... Just hangs. | 01:55 |
DarkwingDuck | 18 separate times with different media/ISOs each time. | 01:55 |
aaditya | Oh, that's not good. | 01:57 |
DarkwingDuck | Then again... I think my desktop is about to go anyway. | 01:57 |
aaditya | How old is it? | 01:57 |
DarkwingDuck | I bought it when the AMD63 3200+ chip first came out... so, a while. | 01:58 |
DarkwingDuck | *AMD64 | 01:58 |
pleia2 | meeting time :) | 02:01 |
pleia2 | #startmeeting | 02:01 |
* DarkwingDuck kicks his server out the door | 02:02 | |
pleia2 | Agenda: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CaliforniaTeam/Meetings/11August28 | 02:02 |
pleia2 | DarkwingDuck: you should probably chair since these are your items :) | 02:02 |
DarkwingDuck | Well, before I added them today, there was no items :) | 02:03 |
DarkwingDuck | Okay, Moving meeting information over to loco.ubuntu | 02:03 |
DarkwingDuck | IIRC the Community Council along with Ubuntu at large likes using the loco.ubuntu for information. | 02:03 |
DarkwingDuck | As far as I can tell, it seems like a nice little tool and if people actually go to the page and click "Attend" we can have a count of who is here and who isn't | 02:04 |
MarkDude | Like a like or +1 button? | 02:04 |
DarkwingDuck | I thought there was... | 02:05 |
DarkwingDuck | Looking at the meeting I have setup for the 11th. | 02:05 |
pleia2 | we did a trial of this (and still used the wiki too) a few meetings ago: http://loco.ubuntu.com/meetings/ubuntu-california/120/detail/ | 02:05 |
pleia2 | unfortunately for our past two meetings the loco directory has been completely down due to server problems, so I'm not entirely confident we want to rely upon it exclusively yet :\ | 02:05 |
* DarkwingDuck nods | 02:06 | |
pleia2 | they claim it's fixed, but I'd rather see prolonged evidence of this | 02:06 |
DarkwingDuck | I'll set it up for the next few meetings and see how it goes. | 02:06 |
DarkwingDuck | Anyone have any issues/problems with this? | 02:06 |
DarkwingDuck | Who is here anyway? | 02:06 |
pleia2 | DarkwingDuck: there is a way to add an agenda item, but not mark yourself as attending | 02:06 |
aaditya | o/ | 02:07 |
MarkDude | \o | 02:07 |
DarkwingDuck | pleia2, Yes, I say that... Must add a +1 attended button. | 02:07 |
eps | "Bother," said Pooh. | 02:07 |
DarkwingDuck | say/saw | 02:07 |
aaditya | Ubuntu's table was the shiniest at the Picnic! | 02:07 |
pleia2 | DarkwingDuck: submit a bug? :) | 02:07 |
pleia2 | thanks aaditya :) | 02:07 |
aaditya | Wait, are we past announcements? | 02:07 |
DarkwingDuck | pleia2, Or, write the module and submit it :D | 02:07 |
DarkwingDuck | Have not gotten there. | 02:08 |
MarkDude | Ubuntu *did* have the nicest looking table | 02:08 |
pleia2 | DarkwingDuck: yeah, you do that | 02:08 |
MarkDude | It most certainly rocked | 02:08 |
DarkwingDuck | Why is server installing -generic-pae and not -server??????? | 02:08 |
pleia2 | I like the idea of trying to use the loco directory for meetings, alongside the wiki for a couple months | 02:08 |
DarkwingDuck | Sorry | 02:08 |
pleia2 | see how it goes | 02:08 |
DarkwingDuck | Okay, I have setup for the 11th then. | 02:09 |
pleia2 | DarkwingDuck: should probably set yourself as chair though, that's solano stroll day and that's until 6PM | 02:09 |
eps | I think it's too much trouble / making extra work for little to no benefit / confusing for attendees | 02:09 |
pleia2 | not sure jdeslip and I will be home in time | 02:09 |
pleia2 | eps: the wiki is easier? | 02:09 |
DarkwingDuck | http://loco.ubuntu.com/meetings/ubuntu-california/196/detail/ | 02:09 |
DarkwingDuck | When/if the wiki is working | 02:09 |
pleia2 | eps: a lot of people can't even log into the wiki :( | 02:09 |
DarkwingDuck | I like loco. because of the tracking value. :D | 02:09 |
* DarkwingDuck is a sucker for stats and tracking | 02:10 | |
eps | The wiki is a "must run" service. The loco directory is not. | 02:10 |
pleia2 | "must run"? | 02:10 |
DarkwingDuck | ... | 02:10 |
* DarkwingDuck is confused. | 02:10 | |
eps | Ubuntu's reputation depends on the wiki working. Nobody cares about the poor little locos. | 02:10 |
pleia2 | eps: they are run by the same server admins and are both very valuable resources, the wiki is down more often than the loco directory | 02:11 |
pleia2 | I mean, now that the wiki has been upgraded it has improved, but it was really horrible stability wise for almost a year | 02:11 |
pleia2 | so I don't really understand how you can say "Ubuntu's reputation depends on it" - it didn't this year :) | 02:11 |
eps | The wiki is the public face of Ubuntu. loco is the other end of the beast. | 02:12 |
DarkwingDuck | I still get massive errors trying to save to the wiki | 02:12 |
DarkwingDuck | but, I digress... | 02:12 |
pleia2 | a lot of people have trouble with wiki syntax too, loco directory you just click "add agenda item" and don't need to worry about formatting or edit conflicts | 02:12 |
DarkwingDuck | Anything else on the l.u.c? | 02:13 |
eps | Did it ever occur to you that some people consider tracking a negative? | 02:13 |
DarkwingDuck | How? | 02:13 |
DarkwingDuck | Tracking our events, meetings and everything is key to understanding out exposure | 02:13 |
pleia2 | eps: we have to have our meetings be public | 02:13 |
pleia2 | they are tracked already, that is not changing | 02:13 |
DarkwingDuck | It's just the work put into the tracking :) | 02:14 |
pleia2 | yeah, work done by me | 02:14 |
DarkwingDuck | Yeah, I should start doing more along that line Lys sorry :. | 02:14 |
DarkwingDuck | :/ | 02:14 |
DarkwingDuck | *Lyz | 02:14 |
DarkwingDuck | dang, I can't type tonight. | 02:14 |
DarkwingDuck | Okay, next item... | 02:14 |
DarkwingDuck | I am please to be hosting a Global Jam here in San Diego | 02:15 |
pleia2 | woohoo san diego | 02:15 |
DarkwingDuck | It will be in the evening of the 3rd. | 02:15 |
DarkwingDuck | http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/ubuntu-california/1198/detail/ | 02:16 |
DarkwingDuck | IT will be at Cafe Libertalia | 02:16 |
DarkwingDuck | We will be doing Upgrading and Testing at the Jam. | 02:16 |
DarkwingDuck | Assuming that I can get my server back online... | 02:17 |
DarkwingDuck | We will have a local mirror so we don't gunk up the bandwidth. | 02:17 |
DarkwingDuck | We will also have something online. | 02:17 |
pleia2 | cool | 02:17 |
DarkwingDuck | So, we get a Jam. :) | 02:18 |
DarkwingDuck | Any questions/comments? | 02:18 |
DarkwingDuck | Okay, Announcements? | 02:19 |
DarkwingDuck | aaditya, Did you have something? | 02:19 |
pleia2 | the linux picnic was awesome! | 02:19 |
DarkwingDuck | Woot! | 02:19 |
pleia2 | I uploaded photos of our table to our flickr account: http://www.flickr.com/photos/ubuntu-us-ca/sets/72157627534061734/ | 02:19 |
pleia2 | and blogged about it here: http://princessleia.com/journal/?p=4949 | 02:20 |
MarkDude | Generations henceforth shall speak of the glorious picnic | 02:20 |
pleia2 | fedora had a table this year too :) they had streamers and balloons and OLPCs | 02:20 |
pleia2 | fedora: http://www.flickr.com/photos/pleia2/6087641260/ | 02:20 |
MarkDude | Well fedora was more trying to buy folks love | 02:21 |
pleia2 | people do love those little green laptops | 02:21 |
MarkDude | Ubuntu had genuine awesomeness at the table | 02:21 |
aaditya | DarkwingDuck: just the picnic, that's all! | 02:21 |
MarkDude | I liked the animals | 02:21 |
pleia2 | :) | 02:21 |
pleia2 | Solano Stroll is coming up on September 11th: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CaliforniaTeam/Projects/SolanoStroll2011 | 02:21 |
DarkwingDuck | Oh, another note... | 02:21 |
DarkwingDuck | Awesome! | 02:22 |
pleia2 | jdeslip and I have started getting our "need stuff" lists together | 02:22 |
pleia2 | oops, one error on that page, fixing | 02:22 |
pleia2 | proper loco directory link is http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/ubuntu-california/1208/detail/ | 02:22 |
DarkwingDuck | San Diego, starting the 20th will be holding b-monthly Ubuntu Hours. | 02:22 |
DarkwingDuck | *bi-monthly | 02:23 |
MarkDude | Oh, let it be noted I got those streamers from the Win7 party from along time ago. Nothing like taking sumthin' from the machine- to change the machine | 02:23 |
DarkwingDuck | Twice a month rather | 02:23 |
pleia2 | cool | 02:23 |
eps | How many cookies does that recipe yield? | 02:24 |
pleia2 | eps: "These recipes made about two dozen Android cookies, I doubled the recipe to get the four dozen I brought to the picnic." | 02:24 |
pleia2 | any other announcements? | 02:25 |
DarkwingDuck | Any comments/concerns? | 02:25 |
pleia2 | oh, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuAppDeveloperWeek is coming up Sept 5-9 | 02:25 |
pleia2 | that's over in #ubuntu-classroom and #ubuntu-classroom-chat | 02:26 |
DarkwingDuck | Oh, and for those Kubuntu/KDE users out there... | 02:26 |
DarkwingDuck | I'll be hosting a Bug Jam and a Doc Jam online | 02:26 |
DarkwingDuck | I'll announce those on the ML | 02:26 |
DarkwingDuck | When I hash out the timing. | 02:27 |
DarkwingDuck | Anyway, if there is nothing else... | 02:27 |
DarkwingDuck | Thank you all for attending. | 02:27 |
DarkwingDuck | #endmeeting | 02:27 |
pleia2 | thanks everyone | 02:27 |
* pleia2 goes to spend last hour with MJ before he goes on trip (*sniffle*) | 02:28 | |
* DarkwingDuck is going to fight with his server some more | 02:28 | |
MarkDude | aaditya: you were epically funny today- I told a few people - my Grandma lost it laughing | 02:30 |
aaditya | I try. :P | 02:31 |
=== DarkwingDuck_ is now known as DarkwingDuck | ||
philipballew | how up to date are ubuntu's restricted drivers? | 06:05 |
DarkwingDuck | For? | 06:18 |
philipballew | my desktop DarkwingDuck | 06:20 |
philipballew | nvidia gforce | 06:20 |
DarkwingDuck | ahhh, video drivers. | 06:20 |
DarkwingDuck | They work well for mone. | 06:20 |
DarkwingDuck | *Mine | 06:20 |
DarkwingDuck | Natty or Oneiric? | 06:20 |
philipballew | new montor doesnt show an immage but only static. though the old crt monitor showed it just fine. its natty | 06:20 |
philipballew | it might be the deskop inself. but it worked right before i moved. so i figure its the driver. | 06:21 |
DarkwingDuck | Looks like there is a gap... | 06:22 |
DarkwingDuck | 32 or 64? | 06:22 |
philipballew | 32 | 06:22 |
philipballew | it also didnt work on 10.04 | 06:22 |
DarkwingDuck | http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us | 06:22 |
philipballew | odd as it worked with my crt | 06:22 |
philipballew | i can just ssh into it probably and install that i guess | 06:23 |
philipballew | so how did the meeting go? | 07:28 |
kdub | DarkwingDuck_: are we starting those ubuntuhours starting 9/6? | 16:38 |
pleia2 | the loco directory says the 20th | 16:38 |
philipballew | hey DarkwingDuck_ , did you get a chance yet to chack out cafe hillcrast yet? | 22:17 |
kdub | i thought we had it 'reserved' or something | 22:47 |
kdub | and, i'm curious as to whether thats for the jam, or for the bimonthly | 22:48 |
kdub | philipballew: ^^ | 22:48 |
philipballew | oh kdub DarkwingDuck_ said he found a location for both | 22:49 |
kdub | ah, cool | 22:49 |
philipballew | heres the link | 22:49 |
philipballew | http://www.cafelibertalia.com/wordpress/ | 22:50 |
philipballew | kdub, | 22:50 |
kdub | neat, pretty decent location | 22:51 |
bkerensa | If you live in the Bay Area avoid BART tonight | 22:52 |
bkerensa | :D | 22:52 |
pleia2 | and every monday night for the foreseeable future | 22:52 |
philipballew | seems good. he seems to want to plan the logistics. thaat is a really nice area | 22:52 |
kdub | philipballew: you can also bike-ride up there via the OB bike path, i think | 22:53 |
kdub | gets you through the I-5/I-8 interchange mess to hillcrest | 22:53 |
philipballew | I might just ride. the hassle of driving on the freeway's compared to a Saturday bike ride seem to favor the bike. it gets out at 7 so there's still time to do something saturday night kdub | 22:55 |
kdub | oh, i meant for the weekly things | 22:56 |
philipballew | ahh. well yeah. as well. that should be pretty fun. I think well just have to see what happens. you gonna be able to make it saturday? | 22:56 |
kdub | saturday, probably not :P | 22:57 |
philipballew | no worries :) | 22:57 |
pleia2 | philipballew: haha, great blog post :) | 23:31 |
philipballew | hey! thank you :) | 23:34 |
philipballew | pleia2, I wanted to make it worth reading. I hope I did :) | 23:34 |
