akgranerMrChrisDruif, I'm sorry to hear that :-(00:57
akgranerpick a section on the on the googledoc if ya want...:-)00:58
MrChrisDruifYeah, it's even amazing seeing I've been very active today (swimming in a public pool with family)00:59
MrChrisDruifYeah, I'm looking right now. I hope I'm also able to edit with Google Docs installed on my Android00:59
akgranernice01:04
akgranerthanks for helping01:04
akgranerabout to get my kitchen cleaned after dinner. make sure my kids are settled in the write a few summaries myself :-)01:05
MrChrisDruifFirst one done01:09
MrChrisDruifWas about the QML01:09
MrChrisDruifWoops, had to restart my connection..01:22
MrChrisDruifakgraner: is there finally some clearance about the naming? Is it flavors or derivatives? I think it should be flavors...01:27
akgranerI was going to use the term "Official Flavors"01:27
akgranerbut the terms are  inter-changeable :-)  I agree flavors in this case is the better word to use01:28
akgranerI started a blog post early today on this  - so I guess I should finish it01:28
akgraner:-)01:28
MrChrisDruif:D01:29
MrChrisDruifHmm, button I tried didn't have desired effect :)01:32
akgranerrut roh :-(01:42
MrChrisDruifIt closed this window, hence I had to rejoin.01:43
MrChrisDruifakgraner: alright, I'll have a second try at that sleeping thing I hear all that praise about by everyone. However, you'll notice about three summaries and a changed title for the flavor meetings. (I also corrected a small typo from someone rise)01:46
MrChrisDruifRise = else01:46
akgranerno worries :-)  thank you01:48
MrChrisDruifYou're welcome (I've even remembered to put my name at the bottom, haha)01:49
MrChrisDruifLucky for me having a sleepless night tonight and hopefully not tomorrow again. Tuesday I've got to work really early :P02:48
* MrChrisDruif continues with summaries02:53
* MrChrisDruif is yawning a lot. Should I try attempt three at sleep?03:43

MrChrisDruifAloha everyone08:59
MrChrisDruifAloha everyone11:49
MrChrisDruifHow's it going with the UWN 245?11:49
akgranerIt still needs work  - I suppose I was tired as I feel asleep at my desk :-(  this was not a good thing  bbiab :-)12:02
MrChrisDruifbbiab?12:02
akgranerbe back in a bit12:02
MrChrisDruifAlright12:03
* MrChrisDruif too12:03
kamilnadeemholstein you here ?13:18
* MrChrisDruif is here, holstein seems to be off for now =)13:23
kamilnadeemMrChrisDruif: No prob just came by to check if he has seen my last blogpost13:26
MrChrisDruifAlright, where is it?13:26
MrChrisDruifWhat's it about?13:26
kamilnadeemMrChrisDruif: http://mknadeem.blogspot.com/2011/11/ubuntu-1110-explored.html13:27
MrChrisDruifThat's pretty long =)13:28
kamilnadeemMrChrisDruif: Yes :)13:28
kamilnadeemI am currently writing a post about Kubuntu 11.10 and already have explained a fair bit about KDE(It is Vast) but the random crashing of KDE is disheartening me .13:28
kamilnadeemIs KDE a good first step for a non linux user?13:29
MrChrisDruifI think it's too laggy, but the last time I've used it is years ago.13:31
MrChrisDruifI don't see a reason why KDE should be harder then GNOME or LXDE or any other DE or OS for that matter13:32
kamilnadeemMrChrisDruif: It works fine now13:32
kamilnadeemMrChrisDruif: It is like this , I have used Ubuntu 11.04 and Ubuntu 11.10 and it has not crashed on me for once13:32
MrChrisDruifLike I said, it's been years ago and you ALWAYS need the willingness to learn a new OS or DE13:33
kamilnadeemWith Kubuntu 11.10 sometimes I shutdown and I am  greeted by a crash error plus the system doesn't shutdown  and also the desktop effect on the taskbar gets mangled13:34
MrChrisDruifHmm, that is awkward13:34
kamilnadeemnow if a new user faces this he might as well dump lInux13:34
MrChrisDruifSame can be said about GNOME or Unity.13:35
kamilnadeemMrChrisDruif: well you are correct on that13:36
MrChrisDruifIf by any chance it is flunked, by whatever reason, while with others it functions properly, a new user will be unmotivated to continue. Same can even be said about Windows actually =')13:37
kamilnadeemMrChrisDruif: Thank You , my doubt has gone13:38
kamilnadeemMrChrisDruif: This one is going to be longer than the one you just saw ;)13:38
kamilnadeemTake care.13:39
MrChrisDruifI'm not a troubleshooter, nor would I have the knowledge to help with your issues. I'd redirect you to #kubuntu (or where ever they offer help with Kubuntu via IRC)13:39
