ScottLastraljava, did you ask about the -menu package updating and building a new .deb file in #ubuntu-motu?00:51
* ScottL doesn't want to ask a redundant question there00:51
astraljavaYes I did, and I was told to file a FFe bug about it.08:56
astraljavaActually, asked on -devel.08:56
astraljava\m/ No unity on the current image! Of course, I haven't tested if it's installable, yet...09:35
astraljavaGood news is that so far, we're only about 82Mb bigger than the last LTS. So a little bit relief for not getting all too bloaty. Granted, we09:55
astraljavawe're not final yet, but that can go either way.09:55
astraljavaThere might be some cruft still.09:55
falktxdamn I forgot to download it yesterday10:09
falktxit's impossible now at work :(10:09
falktxastraljava: did the menu package got up?10:09
astraljavafalktx: Not yet. I need to file an FFe bug about it.10:26
scott-worki tested the QA image last night and it installed correctly :)15:23
scott-workapparently the computer with which I was testing was not reading the new discs/images correctly :(15:24
scott-worki burnt yesterday's QA image and one machine didn't work, but i put the same disc into another machine and it install :/15:24
scott-workbut it looks like we have yet _another_ image email today15:24
astraljavaI'm hearing a lot of weird errors like that lately, or so it seems. Think it's happening more these days than before, but it might be only because I'm more active now than ever before.15:25
astraljavaYeah we got a new image for today as well. And it's got NO unity! w00T!15:25
astraljavaI'll test the QA image soon, too.15:26
scott-workwell, i found it surprising that i pulled out an older disc (ubuntu studio 11.04 i think) and tested it on the machine that didn't want to boot with the oneiric QA/daily images15:32
scott-workand it worked!15:33
scott-work*shrug* i don't know15:33
scott-workcan i ask people who did test to make sure and report the test on the QA website?15:34
scott-worki can provide the links again if it will help15:34
scott-workremember, if we don't get this images test we might not have image to release Oo15:35
astraljavaYep, I'll be reporting soon, but people please, we need more!16:34
scott-workemail sent to -devel list as well17:07
charlie-tcaasked in QA meeting too17:15
astraljavaI asked on user channel as well, so far only one goal.17:15
charlie-tcaI will do some after Xubuntu, it might take a while, though. If I get the images synced, I will run one test on each arch to make sure they work17:18
charlie-tcatesting ubuntustudio 64 with encrypted lvm install17:35
scott-workcharlie-tca:  have you automated the testing process?18:07
charlie-tcanope18:09
charlie-tcaI still have to figure that part out18:09
charlie-tcaI seem to be a having a bit of difficulty understanding how to make the process automated18:10
scott-workah, okay, i had read a few things where it seemed like various people had automated this18:12
scott-workjust a general note: i made a new blog post and copied it to the -devel mailing list and g+ as well18:12
scott-worki hope to develop more web presence again for ubuntu studio18:13
charlie-tcahm, long time blue background only during this install. Is my video card too old?18:56
charlie-tcavery old nvidia MX-4000t18:57

charlie-tcagot a segfault to go with it18:58
charlie-tcawill burn another dvd and try again19:01
scott-workcharlie-tca: was this with the ubuntu studio image?19:08
charlie-tcayup19:08
charlie-tca64bit encrypted lvm19:08
charlie-tcaburning a new dvd on a different computer, will attempt the install again to verify it is not my dvd.19:09
charlie-tcaseems like a bad thing, too19:11
charlie-tcaTrying again, different dvd19:11
charlie-tcascott-work: blaming it on my disk19:15
scott-workcharlie-tca: i had a few those as well i think :/19:16
scott-workbut i still have one machine that will not boot _any_ of the new images19:16
charlie-tcaThis attempt is working better19:16
charlie-tcaoh, I had one of those machines19:17
charlie-tcaprobably still in the closet19:17
charlie-tcaMakes working on these development releases much harder19:17
scott-workyeah, but this machine would boot a 10.04 ubuntu studio dvd :/19:27
scott-workstrange, but oh well19:27
charlie-tcaI had tested quite a few releases on mine when it decided not to test new onew19:28
charlie-tcas /onew/ones19:28
charlie-tcaand it still works with older images19:28
charlie-tcabig red failure screen - oh-oh19:28
charlie-tcascott-work: they need to kick the server and cut new images for you19:29
charlie-tcaIt is almost the same errors I got with Xubuntu Alternate images19:30
charlie-tcathe build is bad19:30
charlie-tcano error in log19:33
charlie-tcahere is the log from the installation:19:34
charlie-tcahttp://paste.ubuntu.com/679164/19:34
astraljavascott-work: What is that machine, that boots not one of our images? Proc, memory, chipsets, graphics, audio card?19:37
charlie-tcaI pasted the log in #ubuntu-release19:37
astraljavaUh oh.19:38
astraljavaThat's nothing we can touch, anyhoo.19:39
* astraljava takes the dog for a walk19:39
scott-workastraljava: it's a gateway machine that i'm not terribly familiar with, but it's a i386 machine19:39
astraljavascott-work: Would be good to dig out the details, might be something that's not overly tested in the circles.19:40
scott-workastraljava: when i get home i can do that19:40
charlie-tcaThey are respinning the images; let's hope it works19:49
scott-workhmmph, i'm feeling overwhelmed at work :(20:37
* holstein gives scott-work some coffee :)20:39
scott-worklol20:50
scott-workwhen we were rebuilding the department i did all the scheduling for both engineers and detailers for a few years20:51
scott-workthen we hired an engineer (i'm not) who would supervise the entire department20:52
scott-worki (gratefully and gracefully) slid out of that position and focused on trainging and quality of our output20:52
scott-workhe scheduled and went to meetings (yuck!)20:52
scott-workhe is out this week on vacation so i'm inundated with fabrication and scheduling20:52
scott-work....and meetings (yuck! again)20:53
scott-worki tend to be a very direct person who likes to solve problems rather than talk about them20:54
scott-workso i don't suffer meetings very well, especially the people who like to repeat the same explanation over and over20:54
scott-worki'm like, "shut up!  i already know what we need to do!"20:54
scott-workwell, not really, but that's what i'm thinking in me noggin'20:54
rlameiroevening21:03
falktxhm, fresh images21:38
falktxhttp://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntustudio/daily/current/21:38
falktxrlameiro: oh, btw, I have network at home now21:39
rlameirofalktx, super :D21:39
falktxlibunity5_4.0.0-0ubuntu4_i386.deb is there, but I guess that's unavoidable21:40
scott-workfalktx: are you still interested in maybe fixing the lightdm background?21:40
scott-worki have some information that might help21:40
falktxscott-work: background?21:40
scott-worktheme or whatever it is21:40
scott-worksomething better than that fekking pink background21:40
holsteinscott-work: you dont likey da pink :)21:41
falktxscott-work: hm, I had submitted a theme some days ago...21:41
scott-workfalktx: you did?  really?21:41
charlie-tcaYeah, I pushed a respin since it failed on Trying to install 64bit encrypted lvm21:41
scott-workfalktx: against the main lightdm package?21:42
falktxscott-work: a US lightdm theme21:42
scott-workdid we have one before?  or did you create a new package within -settings or other package?21:42
falktxthe theme works, but we need to set -settings to apply it21:42
falktxscott-work: it's a new brand package, a theme to lightdm for US21:43
* falktx sometimes feels ignored21:43
* holstein gives falk a fist-bump21:43
falktxholstein: scott-work: kxstudio.sourceforge.net/tmp/ubuntustudio-lightdm-theme_0.1.tar.gz21:44
falktxoops21:44
falktxhttp://kxstudio.sourceforge.net/tmp/ubuntustudio-lightdm-theme_0.1.tar.gz21:44
falktxI showed this before21:45
falktxscreenshot -> http://kxstudio.sourceforge.net/tmp/scr023.png21:45
holsteinfalktx: cool21:45
holsteinthat'll do it :)21:46
scott-workfalktx: i remember this but i thought we were going to make our own package21:46
falktxscott-work: well, use that one21:46
falktxand modify as you need21:46
scott-workalthough i'm not sure would be the way to do it (i.e. make our own)21:46
falktxit's already working...21:46
holsteinyeah, just put it in there, however charlie-tca suggests21:46
falktxscott-work: we only need to set the default lightdm greeter to gtk, everything else is handled21:46
holsteinyou guys need soemthing like that for xubuntu right?21:46
charlie-tcaheheheh21:47
scott-workcharlie-tca: did you see falktx 's link?  you might want to pass that on to mr_pouit or madnick21:47
falktxscott-work: probably xubuntu does it too, so we just need to borrow some code and it's all set21:47
holsteincharlie-tca: or are you not using lightdm?21:47
charlie-tcamr_pouit said we are waiting until the next cycle to touch lightdm21:47
falktxremember21:47
falktxwe only need to set the default lightdm greeter to gtk, everything else is handled21:47
holsteincharlie-tca: right...21:47
charlie-tcaWe worked too hard just to get it usable21:47
falktxcharlie-tca: this is just a theme21:47
charlie-tcayeah, I know21:48
charlie-tcabut when Ubuntu did "just a theme", it broke lightdm bad21:48
charlie-tcaTook us a month to get it to work again21:48
falktxcharlie-tca: afaik, this is a separate package, not affiliated with lightdm21:48
charlie-tcabad taste and all that, I guess21:49
charlie-tcaYou can talk to mr_pouit and madnick about it. I don't care either way21:49
falktxcharlie-tca: it's just like another ubuntustudio-* package, won't hurt ubuntu21:49
charlie-tcamadnick is the person working on it for Xubuntu21:49
falktxwell, we first have to push it into the repos21:50
scott-workfalktx: so if i took this package and built it at home on my oneiric machine i should be able to install it, yes?21:50
falktxscott-work: yes21:50
charlie-tcaI am not concerned with hurting Ubuntu. They will hurt all of us soon enough21:50
holsteinscott-work: i can test too if needed21:50
scott-workfalktx: i have an oneiric working currently, i will try to test it tonight21:50
scott-workif it installs well then i will see about getting it into the repos21:50
holsteini should say, i have the means to test.. assuming i can figure out how21:50
falktxscott-work: as I said, just need to change lightdm greeter (a conf file) to gtk, something like s/unity/gtk/21:51
falktxscott-work: it can be easily done in *-settings21:51
falktxholstein: just grab the package and do "debuild -rfakeroot" to generate the deb21:51
falktxholstein: at the end, the package will complain that you're not the author, but that's ok21:52
charlie-tcascott-work: the re-spin worked; the image is installing this time21:52
falktx;)21:52
holsteinfalktx: id need to debuild on oneiric though right?21:52
* falktx is still downloading21:52
falktxholstein: I don't think so21:52
falktxholstein: nope, it has no dependencies at all, you're ok to go21:53
holsteinfalktx: i'll give it a shot21:53
falktxyou'll need lightdm though21:53
falktxbut at least you get to build the package21:54
holsteinTHB, i dont know what debuild -rfakeroot meabs21:54
holsteinmeans*21:54
holsteinill have to take some time and RTFM later21:54
falktxdebuild == build deb21:54
holsteinon the oneiric box21:54
falktx -rfakeroot  == build as fakeroot user21:54
falktxcan I be honest here...?21:55
holsteinfalktx: please do :)21:55
falktxwell, I've seen my stuff working, both menus and this21:56
falktxbut it seems like this is a matter of trust21:56
falktxI feel like you guys still don't trust me...21:56
scott-workcharlie-tca: that is good information :)21:56
scott-workfalktx: it's not that we don't trust you21:57
scott-worki'll mention two things21:57
scott-work1. i'm not blindly pushing a change for something that i haven't seen fix something21:57
scott-work2. if you have something that works you should have rights to push it to the bzr branch as well21:58
scott-workfor #1 that's for anyone21:58
scott-worki'm not as good of a packager, much less a coder, as you falktx21:58
scott-workif i was like luke emmet and knew crap loads and done this for years i might do different21:59
scott-workbut if i'm responsible i want to see the fix before i will push21:59
falktxI understand21:59
scott-workthis includes my own stuff and i test it myself but also try to get others to test as well21:59
scott-workfalktx: i am honest, i WANT you to do stuff and get it into ubuntu studio21:59
* holstein +122:00
falktxthanks22:00
scott-worki ask that you either push it to the bzr branch yourself or i will do it, but i will want to test it myself before i do ;)22:00
falktxok22:00
scott-workanother way to look at it is that it's not that i don't trust you, rather i don't trust me22:01
falktxlol, that sounds bad22:02
scott-workif i had luke's or emmet's experience i probably would have a different threshold for what i would accept or not22:03
scott-workbut since i don't i feel that i need to see the problem and then see the fix22:03
falktxscott-work: so, I'm ok to push things to bzr?22:03
scott-workyou are part of the team, yeah22:03
scott-workall that i ask is that you check your changes after they are pushed and fix it if things go wrong ;)22:04
scott-workwell, you don't have to check them yourselves, it could be me or astraljava or holstein or whomever22:04
falktxyep22:04
scott-worki just want to make sure any changes that happen from anyone fix stuff instead of break them ;)22:04
falktxI don't usually show you broken stuff though22:04
scott-worklols22:05
scott-workno you don't22:05
falktxppas are different22:05
falktxI know my ppas have some small issues, but that's not part of US22:05
falktxif I want to push something to US, I usually am more responsible and check everything before showing it22:06
scott-worki probably need to update my testing methods to use VM as well22:06

ubottuLaunchpad bug 838434 in ubuntustudio-menu (Ubuntu) "ubuntustudio-menu does not work on XFCE" [Undecided,New]22:29
charlie-tcaIs that tied into not having a studio session yet?22:30
charlie-tcaSince xfce session is starting, the menu may not be able to override the xfce menu 22:30
falktxcharlie-tca: I've tested it myself22:32
falktxit works fine in oneiric22:32
falktxcharlie-tca: http://kxstudio.sourceforge.net/tmp/scr024.png22:33
charlie-tcaneat!22:33
falktxcharlie-tca: note that, using my ppas, I have lots of more apps than in standard ubuntu though22:33
charlie-tcaThat's what I expected to see in my install22:33
falktxthese new apps were not added to the menu, as scott demanded22:33
charlie-tcaright22:33
falktxcharlie-tca: what can we do to push this up?22:34
charlie-tcaI don't know22:34
falktxcreate a debdiff?22:34
charlie-tcaI rely on mr_pouit for that kind of stuff22:34
falktxdamn22:34
charlie-tcaShould be just an upload to fix the bug, I think22:34
charlie-tcawhere is astraljava ? He seems to understand a lot of that stuff22:35
charlie-tcapersia knows how to do it, too22:35
* falktx added 1 more comment22:36
charlie-tcaI been trying for three years to learn how to make things happen without saying "mr_pouit, can you..."22:36
falktxcharlie-tca: I did once for lucid zynadd package (from revu), but I don't remember the process now22:36
falktxand for US it should be different22:36
charlie-tcayeah, should be something like push the upload through, but if in beta freeze, you got to get the archive admin to approve it, I think22:37
charlie-tcaIf there is a patch pilot on in #ubuntu-devel, they might be able to do it, too22:37
falktxcharlie-tca: holstein: can you "this bug affects me" there?22:46
falktxso it gets as confirmed22:46
charlie-tcaI can confirm it, can't I?22:46

* holstein found it22:47
holstein:)22:47
falktxthanks22:48
falktxholstein: now it's incomplete... what's missing?22:49
charlie-tcaThat's because I hit the wrong key22:49
holsteinhehe22:49
charlie-tcaIt is now triaged, high22:49
charlie-tcaand it is going to get tagged "iso-testing" too22:50
charlie-tcaall of which helps get the fix in 22:50
falktxah, nice22:50
falktxoh, high importance!22:50
charlie-tcaI only understand little bits of stuff, but I know you need all that to get the fix pushed in22:51
falktxcharlie-tca: do you know how to create a new branch in the US code?22:51
falktxfor lightdm theme22:51
charlie-tcano, I have no idea22:51
charlie-tcaI can't even figure out how to find such things22:51
falktxI don't think I can do it (permissions), but I'm not sure how I would do it in the first place22:51
charlie-tcaDid I tell you, I don't know how to do most of the developer side of things?22:52
charlie-tcaMaybe micahg can. He is very helpful when asked if he has time22:52
* falktx is still downloading the image22:53
charlie-tcaI am just a poor, braindead user...22:54
astraljavaConfirmed the bug, but am a little bit puzzled by the branch.22:56
astraljavaTurned it into a FFe bug, and subscribed ubuntu-release on it, but what was the revision number you committed, falktx?22:57
falktxastraljava: FFe bug?22:57
falktxoh22:57
astraljavaIt needs to be a Feature Freeze exception bug now.22:58
falktxastraljava: rev 56, as the bug says22:58
falktxastraljava: this is a fix, so it should be ok...22:58
astraljavaSorry, yeah there it is.22:58
* falktx will be expecting an ubuntu mail about the new package ;)23:00
charlie-tcaOkay, I have to take a break; will check which images still need to be run in a couple of hours23:00
astraljavaOkay, well, IMHO that bug should now contain enough information for it to be uploaded as a new package.23:00
astraljavacharlie-tca: Thanks a bunch!23:00
astraljavaAnd sorry I haven't had time for Xubuntu, until tomorrow.23:00
astraljavaHope that's enough for QA purposes.23:01
falktxI'm still confused23:01
falktxastraljava: what you just did, were I able to do it?23:01
charlie-tcaThat's no problem. Help falktx get the bug fix figured out now23:01
charlie-tcafalktx needs to know how to make that stuff happen23:01
astraljavaYou were, it just needed to be re-phrased as a FFe bug, and ubuntu-release needed to be subscribed to it.23:01
astraljavaThat's all.23:01
falktxastraljava: you do you make it a FFe bug? tag?23:02
astraljavaIf they agree to it, it will get uploaded. If not, they will state why not.23:02
astraljavaThen we will make modifications accordingly.23:02
astraljavaJust mention that in the subject, that should do it.23:03
