[02:36] One more re-spin of the Beta1 candidates tonight. There is a fix to parted to make it work on Mac systems [03:42] release notes added to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/OneiricOcelot/TechnicalOverview [03:42] Good night [14:16] Unit193: someone needs to test the Lubuntu alternate images today [14:22] images dated 0901 are working. These will be published for the Beta1 release [14:23] Thanks go to everyone involved for making this milestone work! [14:57] pleia2: release news - http://2tu.us/3h8b [15:15] Beta1 freeze lifted now [15:38] is it warmer in here? :P [15:52] charlie-tca: We/they had a tester called Lance, but I'll add that to Xubuntu ones [15:53] jibel ran them, so they are done. Images are being published as soon as the hit the mirrors today [15:54] jibel is someone on the release team? [15:59] charlie-tca: ready to be posted? [15:59] jibel is the main testing guy for QA [16:00] pleia2: yes, it should be ready [16:00] release is not official yet, though [16:02] Probably two more hours to make it official, testing is done, waiting for mirrors, I think [16:03] I cheated and put the release notes in the news thing this time [16:08] ok, I've htmlized it, I'll post whenever we're ready [16:08] Seems to be missing a few tests, or am I reading it wrong? [16:09] yes, it is missing some [16:09] * Unit193 picks alt entire, easy as 1, 2, 3 [16:09] Since most of the tests on yesterdays images, today's testing is spotty [16:10] There was a late fix to partitioning that applied to all images, to allow those who install to a mac would not corrupt the drives [16:11] Well, I'm syncing both (or all 4 if you really want to know) [16:14] That's good. I ran out of energy to keep testing them today [16:17] It was a bit frustrating, when, at 8:00 PM local time, I found every image would be re-built again, and please try to have them tested as soon as they get done... :( [16:18] I almost did not allow them to build the xubuntu images [16:18] They agreed spot testing would be okay today [16:20] I was going to do one or two yesterday, but computer that can handle it (mostly) crashed [16:22] I did all of them yesterday, and the day before, and the day before that, too [16:23] But, that too is just part of being the tester for Xubuntu :) [16:23] Well, I try, but I can only run one at a time [16:24] heh, yeah, I run two computers steady just to test those images [16:24] My connection won't allow more than that now [16:25] It was a lot easier when I could run 4 hardware machines, and 4 VBox machines at one time [16:28] jarnos: does any operating system use different icons for mounted vs unmounted drives? [16:32] Another issue, Vbox killed the computer on opening it again [16:33] really? [16:33] Second time, I'll try it again, but in a different way [16:34] Third time. I could try it on this P4 though [16:35] sounds like you made VBox angry? [16:37] Yeah, this isn't good as it doesn't even OPEN [16:38] Going to close everything out on this computer so it might be able to handle VBox [16:43] charlie-tca, I don't know. Thunar does, but the difference is not big enough, IMO. [16:46] charlie-tca, I want to know by glance, if my removable drive is mounted or not. Actually a drive is not (software) mounted, but partitions in the drive may be. [16:47] Hey guys, sorry I've been busy with Studio stuff for the past few days. Anything urgent needs to be done this way? [16:49] Nope, nothing urgent today [16:49] just waiting for the milestone to release now [16:50] Okay, sounds good. [17:25] Going cut the "too long already" grass now [18:53] Can anyone try the oem or free-software installs using the images dated today? [19:18] beta1 out yet? [19:19] not yet [19:19] couple of hours yet [19:20] wow, cutting it close... [19:21] heh, lucky to get it in today [19:22] :) [21:38] Beta1 released; pleia2 [21:38] pleia2: can you post the news article now? === ChanServ changed the topic of #xubuntu-devel to: Xubuntu Development | Oneiric Ocelot Feature Freeze in effect | #xubuntu for support | Schedule: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/OneiricReleaseSchedule | Wiki: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu | Xubuntu Community meeting 2011-09-05 at 19:00 UTC | Oneiric Ocelot images at http://cdimages.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/ [21:56] charlie-tca: working on now :) [21:57] http://xubuntu.org/node/49 [21:57] Thank you! [21:58] This one took a lot of effort on everyone's part to actually get out. [22:16] knome: Thanks for the new logo. It is on the beta1 cd's [22:16] np [22:50] http://news.softpedia.com/news/Ubuntu-11-10-Beta-1-219855.shtml [22:50] "and a very nice new Plymouth boot splash screen" :D [22:51] w00t! [22:52] That's pretty neat [22:54] I was tired when I wrote the release notes. They seem a bit wordy still, but maybe they will generate excitement, too. [22:56] woo saw the xubuntu beta 1 announcement on planet ubuntu :) [22:56] oh, old news i see -_- [23:07] hm, I have to run my updates tonight for oneiric on this computer. I will be back after it decides to boot again :) [23:08] raevol: it is good to know someone read it! [23:08] :D [23:43] thx for changes, creating news on my portal :D [23:46] ;)
