[00:51] you are kidding [00:51] the -lowlatency kernel didnt make it in 11.10? === naka-- is now known as naka [01:18] i'm no expert, but from what i understand a lot of the low latency functionality has been included in the generic kernel now [01:18] hence no need for -lowlatency [01:21] naka: sure, but we still need it as of last release [01:21] for several test cases [01:22] firewire not being the only case [01:22] still, we havent had one since maverick [01:22] lucid has the RT kernel from karmic carried over into the repos [01:35] naka: if you can test non-firewire, i'll test firewire [01:36] with mainline kernels for 12.04 [01:36] still, we should be able to put software in the repos that we need [01:45] ah i see [01:46] unfortunately i'm still waiting for my internet to get hooked up here so i'm a few days away from really being able to download and test anything :( [01:46] but i hope to be able to help out once i'm online [01:48] naka: :) [01:48] cool [01:48] we were really doing pretty well there for a bit before natty [01:48] testing-wise [01:52] reading that y'all were switching to xfce piqued my interest in ubuntu-studio, since i've been thinking of doing the same thing myself lately [01:52] and i saw the oneiric release notes which almost read like a cry for help :> [01:52] yeah, i think thats where im heading [01:52] xubuntu is quite nice [01:53] naka: lol [01:58] i might install xubuntu at least this afternoon. i'm using a 3g connection, so i can't download a lot of stuff without it costing a fortune, but my isp mirrors a few distros which are free to dl [01:58] xubuntu is included, ustudio aint :( [02:01] haven't used xfce in four or five years. back when i tried it the panel used to crash from time to time [02:02] i understand it has really matured now though. even torvalds made the switch [02:19] hi kubotu ! [02:19] 'evening, craigs63 [07:31] Hi! [07:58] naka, back when i used gnome, it's panel used to crash daily too :) [07:59] *its [07:59] heh [14:11] Hi! :-) [14:15] sd_ubuntu_: o/ [14:16] holstein: hi! I'm still waiting to start..... how are u? [14:16] sd_ubuntu_: dont wait, just have at it :) [14:16] im good [14:18] holstein: A guy told me that he received what to do after doing the registration in the list.... and I did it the other day, but I didnt receive the confirmation [14:19] sd_ubuntu_: ? [14:19] well, i assure you, you wont get anything [14:19] its me, and scott [14:20] astraljava is here alot [14:20] falktx is here [14:20] sd_ubuntu_: if you want something easy, join the #ubuntu-news channel and you can write summaries [14:20] we need help with that every weekend [14:20] here, its like this [14:20] sd_ubuntu_: here's what you do [14:20] whatever it takes [14:21] we are in a bad way right now [14:21] this team [14:21] what i plan on doing it asking around about how to get scott or falk motu access [14:22] (i have to go ...) [14:24] sd_ubuntu_: next time :) [14:24] just so you know, dont expect much from that list in the way of direction [15:15] hi [15:21] hey fr-z [15:21] fr-z, i see you asked about the new US website [15:21] US? [15:21] fr-z, at least right now it's hard to cooperate, but i'll let you all know if i need any help :) [15:22] us=ubuntu studio [15:22] ahh lol sorry :) [15:22] nice if you need count on me please ^^ [15:22] sure, thanks [15:22] the next step is to migrate to a wordpress theme really [15:23] and make the JS "feature" tabs work [15:23] well coding its not my thing ;) [15:23] the new "feature" area can be seen at http://temp.knome.fi/ubuntustudio/www/ [15:23] the only thing i can code is an html saying helo lol [15:23] more than nothing, isn't it :) [15:24] http://myhaiku.org/ for the general looks [15:24] so those two are going to be integrated into one wordpress theme :) [15:24] i don't know much about the content [15:24] that's something somebody else has to work on :) [15:25] ^^ [15:25] its quite interesting [15:25] i would change some short details [15:25] simple things [15:25] about the content, or the lookS? [15:25] the looks [15:25] feel free to comment :) [15:27] i would remove the "ubuntu studio" on the left, the audio-video-graphics words at the banner top, the logo at the left side of the word audio [15:27] then [15:27] with the free space [15:27] you could zoom the banner to full screen that area [15:28] oh [15:28] see this page: http://temp.knome.fi/ubuntustudio/www/ [15:28] it would breath more [15:28] that's what the header is about to look like [15:28] the rest of the page will be taken from myhaiku.org :) [15:28] eg. the article listing [15:28] this one is much better [15:29] that's exactly doing what you said - giving more space to breathe and cutting repetition [15:29] true [15:29] its more serious and professional [15:29] so http://temp.knome.fi/ubuntustudio/www/ will be the main visual structure? [15:29] yes [15:30] that's created using myhaiku.org, the previous draft, as a base [15:30] incorporating similar elements and somewhat the overall looks :) [15:30] no doubt its much better [15:31] thanks [15:32] oh - if you have any other ideas than just screenshots for the right-hand side of the "feature" area (there's some 250px width of empty space), shoot [15:32] i mean, the main slide probably should have a logo or something really generic [15:32] but the audio/video/graphics slides can be much more interesting than just screenshots [15:33] if we only have ideas for that [15:33] (any color/image is ok really) [15:34] if you want i can make a sketch with the idea but i have something in mind [15:35] sketch is great, just an idea is fine too [15:35] i woul remove the audio video etc, honestly they dont fit the global concept. And then you could solve the right side space. you could put, vertically icons [15:36] one for audio, another for video and so on [15:36] holstein: I was with my brother and grandmother and then I lost the connection..... thank you for your messages (that I losted unfortunately). However I've understood that I should join ubuntu news channel to start simply [15:36] let me see if i see and example [15:36] hi sd [15:36] i dont know if holstein isnt away [15:37] i suppose we're not going to change the vertical/horizontal aligment any more, but ideas for the background are welcome (btw, the free space is intentional ;)) [15:38] if you have any other ideas than just screenshots for the right-hand side of the "feature" area (there's some 250px width of empty space), shoot [15:38] yeah, i mean something like photos of mixer buttons etc. [15:38] :) [15:39] you mean that was something for the right side but of the background? [15:39] ahh [15:39] got it :) [15:39] that's what the free space is for [15:39] some graphical element [15:40] for graphics i would bet on a 3d model, half rendered and another half in lines [15:41] i bet m8s on blender group wouldnt mind to give a hand. They have loads of models [15:42] and maybe they could help getting a lens for the video aswell [15:58] yeah [16:17] cya later :) [16:42] hey knome [21:21] who has access to the artwork? [21:21] i want to go ahead and take the old wallpaper and put it in our XFCE, first thin [21:21] g [21:21] and just choose some darker theme, and have that to fall back on [21:22] anyways... upgrade from 11.04 worked [21:33] hey holstein [21:42] knome: o/ [21:42] are you the website guy? [21:42] we gotta get that up ASAP [21:43] yup, yeah. [21:43] i know. [21:43] how do we make that happen? [21:43] AFAIK, you are done right? [21:44] the next step is to convert the drafts to a wordpress theme (i understood that was okay for scott) [21:44] after that, we need the canonical IS to set up a staging site for that, so you can insert the content [21:44] yeah, that sounds envolved [21:44] the wordpress thing [21:44] and shortly after that, you say "GO!!" and they'll publish it [21:44] can we just say go on what you got? [21:45] no, because there's nothing completely ready yet [21:45] OK [21:45] what can i do ? [21:45] i have created this: http://temp.knome.fi/ubuntustudio/www/ [21:45] i can put up a wordpress instance if needed [21:45] based on this: http://myhaiku.org/ [21:45] no need - i can do that myself too :) [21:46] knome: lets try and talk more regularly, and make this happen ASAP [21:46] like, 2 weeks, lets be submitting something to canonnical [21:46] is that possible? [21:46] if you want to make things ready for the next stage, you can contact the canonical IS (just add a ticket in RT i understand) so they'll have a staging site ready for us [21:47] depends much on my commercial work [21:47] im at the point with the site where we need to do something even if its wrong [21:47] i'm hoping to have more time soonish [21:47] knome: if you want to set up the wordpress, i can mess with it [21:47] and talk someone else into helping [21:47] a wordpress guy [21:47] i know 2 wordpress guys actually that would help [21:48] how well do they know theming? [21:48] one of them is quite good at it [21:48] and the other is learning [21:48] he's more on the backend [21:48] okay [21:48] we don't need much of the backend now [21:48] with those 2 guys, i should be able to really make some headway [21:49] i'll try to get something together tomorrow [21:49] knome: thanks [21:49] like put that all into a wordpress theme draft [21:49] after that it's easier for others to chime in [21:49] well, i say we just do it [21:49] we need some JS too, for the feature area [21:50] you get the say so [21:50] you and scottL [21:50] no more 'is this OK, and whatever" [21:50] mm-hmm [21:50] it'll be the week after 12.04 releases and well be saying the same thing [21:50] if someone dont like it, they can come here and file tickets or whatever [21:50] heh, hopefully not [21:50] they are more than welcome [21:51] knome: the the JS something that can be added later? [21:51] i can ask the theme guy [21:51] he's more of a coder [21:51] OH... i know a JS guy too actually that owes me some time :) [21:51] umph, no, i think it should be in right away [21:51] we'll see [21:52] all i can do is ask [21:52] i'll see if i have enough time for that tomorrow (or this night) too [21:52] i can do JS myself too :) [21:52] knome: you are a gentleman and a scholar [21:52] :) [21:52] yeah, and lately quite busy ;) [21:52] if i can do some of the light-weight stuff with the help i rustle up [21:52] you can sweep in and JS [21:53] swoop? [21:53] whatever... [21:53] heh [21:53] in what timezone are you in? [21:53] eastern... new york [21:53] right [21:53] im in asheville NC [21:53] how much - is that? [21:53] 5? [21:53] okay [21:54] i'm +3 [21:54] but that's okay [21:54] i sometimes beat the people in US staying up longer [21:54] yeah, you can message me here or email me or whatever [21:58] mmh. [21:58] i think i'm going to work on the site tonight [21:58] seems like the only way to go [21:58] i'll just wait that my wife falls asleep first :P [21:58] hehe [21:58] brb
