orogorhi here09:51
orogori have some issue with my X11 sessions since upgrading to last ubuntu09:51
orogori don t have any app-menu or taskbar or unity menu09:51
orogorand starting a kde session does the same thing and i have nautillus as my desktop09:52
Ampelbeinorogor: "Last ubuntu"=11.10 or 12.04 (which is in alpha)09:55
orogor11.1009:58
orogoractually i restarted gdm via commandline to try to pick up another session, but maybe this didnt worked as expected09:58
orogorAmpelbein: gdm logon doesn t look like the login manager i saw first dunno if that makes a difference10:01
Ampelbeinorogor: The standard login manager nowadays is lightdm10:01
Ampelbeinorogor: Any errors logged in ~/.xsession-errors or /var/log/lightdm/*.log ?10:03
orogorthere s  lot of debug insid e, i can t  see the error10:07
orogornew session to use is unbuntu ?10:07
orogori got like 6-7 sessions to choose from10:08
Ampelbeinorogor: ubuntu should be unity.10:08
orogorand btw now picking up kde session works , but ubuntu session leave me with no unity launcher10:08
orogori have no unity in the menu10:08
Ampelbeinorogor: You can report a bug with 'ubuntu-bug lightdm' and describe your issue.10:08
Ampelbeinorogor: No, I meant the entry "Ubuntu" should start a Unity session10:09
orogorhaaa10:09
orogori try hard to like unity , but it really doesn t like me , maybe we re  not destined to be together10:10
Ampelbeinorogor: 'sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop' ;-)10:12
orogori prefer plain simple gnome10:13
orogorgnome with enlightement as i was 10 years ago was the most perfect combination, but everyone has gone mad since10:13
Ampelbeinorogor: Yeah, all those shiny app-like desktops don't appeal to me either. But we are getting offtopic.10:14
orogoryup10:14
orogori i choose a gnome session it doesn t looks at all like my previous ubuntu session10:15
orogorand i can t  right click on gnome element to configure them either10:15
orogorhummm    trying xfce i ll see if i like it10:16
cdbsAnyone around?15:31
cdbs~taowa4 on launchpad has made a team ~badge-collectors on Launchpad and has added it to my ~papercuts-ninja15:31
cdbsI asked him to remove it since it was not the right thing to do (my team is for papercuts enthusiasts)15:32
cdbshe didn't respond, I removed the team myself and removed his admin status (he made himself admin since he's the member of the owner team mysteriously)15:32
cdbsSo, is anyone from the design team around who can kick him off from ~papercutters which will help me fix the issue?15:33
cdbshe has made himself as admin again and he has changed team joining policy, he seems like a troll15:34
cdbsnot the right thing to ask on a sunday morning :)15:36
Ampelbeincdbs: might be better to ask in #launchpad?15:39
cdbshmm15:39
cdbseven fewer chances15:39
cdbsthe LOSA people might not be there15:39
cdbsanyway15:39
cdbsI'll try15:39
ashams_cdbs, it's a war, ha :)15:47
=== ashams_ is now known as ashams
ashamscdbs, will mail vish15:48
cdbsashams: shouldn't I mail him?16:20
cdbsNot a problem, if you've mailed already, doesn't matter16:20
ashamscdbs, nah not yet16:20
ashamsgot something from #launchpad ?16:20

hggdhcdbs: oh, I see what you mean, badge-collectors and all17:43
* cdbs thinks he had seen hggdh at UDS18:30
* hggdh thinks cdbs is correct18:48
hggdhBTW, I remember an exchange with taowa4 wating to be a member of bug-control, and I (and others) refusing him due to no qualifications, and s/he insisting18:50
cdbshggdh: I filed a question about this issue https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad/+question/17944418:56
cdbsthanks to ashams for bringing me to light on the issue18:56
ashamscdbs, Thanks to you buddy.18:57
cdbshggdh: And I have no idea how he was approved into ~papercutters when he has NO papercut triaging experience19:00
hggdhcdbs: perfect. Actually, I wonder how many members this badge-collectors team has ;-)19:00
cdbshggdh: and many other experienced triagers like sense are out of the team (I'm not admin else I'll add sense to papercutters)19:01
cdbshggdh: 1 member, taowa4 himself, but yeah, the team is new, and many people could want to join it19:01
cdbshggdh: look at the immense number of badges taowa4 has, like, 3 rows of icons!19:01
hggdhyeah, first thing I notices19:02
hggdhnoticed even19:02
hggdhheh. *I* am not a member of papercutters...19:02
cdbsthe policies of getting into that are really strict19:05
cdbsI doubt if vish could have added him in19:05
cdbsI guess someone from the canonical UX team added him by mistake19:05
cdbs(where him is ~taowa4)19:05
hggdhyes, I think it was a mistake19:06
hggdhand I subscribed to the question in a.lp.net, I am also curious to see how the LOSAs will act19:09
cdbsashams: UCA day was your idea? Nice!19:11
ashamscdbs, yep, Thanks :)19:17
ashamscdbs, hggdh I have just deactivated taowa again, we'll be having fun all the night long :)20:32
cdbsashams: deactivated from?20:32

* hggdh wonders how old is s/he21:04
hggdhashams: BTW -- we are closing the mentorship programme, it did not work21:04
gemahggdh: why didn't it work?21:10
hggdhgema: unrealistic expectations from the mentees -- they pretty much expect us to hold their hands, and we simply do not have time for it21:24
hggdhso they (mostly) sit down and wait21:25
ashamscdbs, hey sorry I wasn't here. I meant pcuts-ninja21:54
cdbsashams: ah, got it21:55
cdbsashams: as a side note, he kicked me off the ninja team :)21:55
cdbswe're having a Steve Jobs-esque thermonuclear war!21:55
ashams:D21:55
ashamshggdh, but the mentorship program is essential21:56
ashamscdbs, heh Bilal is kicked from the team which he is supposed to lead hahaha22:00
ashams:P22:00
cdbsanyway22:00
cdbswe've discussed lot about that single troll on this channel22:01
cdbswe should stop:22:01
cdbs!feedthetroll22:01
ubot4The above mess was caused by someone who thought it was funny (they're gone now). Please ignore it completely, since discussing it and making a fuss will only make them think they've reached their "fun" goal.22:01
cdbs(well, that troll wasn't on IRC so ubottu's factoid contradicts the situation)22:01
cdbsbut yeah, its outrageous, let's hope the LOSAs will fix it tomorrow22:02
ashamsI hope so22:02
hggdhashams: training is essential, I agree. Helping them to start is essential, I also agree. But mentoring did not work22:30
hggdhashams: so we will be trying other options -- short videos, less that 2 min, showing details of bug triaging, etc22:31
ashamshggdh, do we have any other alternative to it?22:31
hggdhheh22:31
ashams:)22:31
ashamsThat will work too22:31
hggdhyes. Plus askubuntu, answers, etc, not counting the help we strive to provide in this channel22:32
ashamsyeah, mentorship seemed to be exhausting for no reasonable output22:33
gemahggdh: fair enough22:45
