knomeUnit193, check your wikipage11:20
micahgso, meeting at 17:00?11:24
knomeyeah. i'm not sure i can attend, but i completely think we should keep that meeting whatsoever11:24
knomesomebody else who could chair that if i'm not available?11:24
knomemicahg, you still therE?11:38
knomemicahg, there seems to be a TB meeting at jan 12, 21UTC11:39
knomemicahg, could you make it?11:39
knomemaybe-ubiquity is most probably landing in precise for xubuntu :)11:43
micahgknome: idk, maybe11:43
knomeok11:43
knomei sent the LTS proposal for the TB11:44
knomeand added the item to the agenda11:44
knome:)11:44
knomeok, maybe-ubiquity should be fixed. to all testers: can you check all the images tomorrow and see if they look fine11:46
micahgknome: BTW, I don't think we've had images since Dec 2012:05
micahgbbl12:05
knomehuh?12:05
knomewhy is that?12:05
astraljavaI don't understand. They're there.12:19
knomeme neither12:20
knome:)12:20
knomepleia2, ?12:56
micahgknome: I don't see the images on cdimage.u.c13:24
micahgknome: BTW, at 18:00 I probably cannot attend13:26
micahgbut again, not necessary13:26
ochosimicahg: what about the thunderbird-bug?13:27
micahgochosi: will try to upstream it later13:27
ochosik :)13:27
ochosimicahg: "later" as in "later today"?13:31
micahgwe'll see :)13:31
ochosik :)13:32
astraljavamicahg: I still don't understand: http://paste.ubuntu.com/798202/13:35
micahgidk13:36
nanotubefeature suggestion: put a link to the sound panel within the main settings manager. as it is, it's only accessible via the sound panel applet...16:15
ochosinanotube: you mean the mixer? (it's in multimedia)16:16
nanotubei mean, the sound config panel you open when you click the speaker icon in panel, and go to 'sound settings...'16:17
ochosiyeah, but that's xfce4-mixer, it's also in the menu in multimedia > mixer16:18
ochosibut i agree that some people (especially coming from the windows-world) would expect it to be in the settings-manager16:18
ochosiit kinda makes more sense there16:19
nanotubehm, multimedia -> mixer looks different than that sound settings panel16:19
nanotubewindows-world, kde-world, or gnome-world :)16:19
ochosirly? maybe i modified my installation too much :) mind to take a screenshot for me?16:19
nanotubeochosi: sure. just a sec.16:19
nanotubehttp://imgur.com/9IV6r16:20
nanotubesound at top, mixer at bottom16:20
ochosiis this a standard xubuntu install?16:21
ochosior did you have something else installed before (e.g. ubuntu)16:22
mr_pouitthat's either "gnome-volume-control --page=applications" or "gnome-control-center sound"16:26
mr_pouitxfce4-mixer is tried after these two16:26
ochosiyup, so it's not part of the default install16:26
mr_pouitindeed16:26
ochosii mean i'm not really opposed to putting the mixer in the settings16:26
ochosiit's kinda where it belongs16:26
ochosibut we should strive not to clutter the settings-manager too much16:27
ochosiotherwise it becomes useless16:27
charlie-tcaFor whoever is chairing the meeting today; I can't make it at 18:00 UTC17:10
charlie-tcaHowever, testing is ongoing. I test the images daily, for the most part. Would be nice to have a few more people involved in that. Results are always posted at http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/204/builds17:11
Unit193knome: Thanks a ton!17:28
Unit193charlie-tca: GridCube and I are still doing them (just later than you it seems)17:29
charlie-tcayou documented a couple, but I have not seen very many on the tracker from either of you17:30
charlie-tcaEven if they are the same installs, they need to be documented, please.17:30
Unit193Hmm.... I know I've done more than a few, and I have been trying to put them on (I could be doing that wrong I guess). I do them later in the day EST if that counts17:33
charlie-tcaAnytime is fine. I will try to remember to look at the tracker more often. Maybe I missed them.17:36
charlie-tcaNot being able to get reports hurts. It makes it vey much more difficult to tell what is being done.17:36
Unit193When is it too late to run them?17:36
nanotubeochosi: it is an apt-get install xubuntu-desktop on top of ubuntu :)17:36
nanotubeso is the 'sound' panel from gnome? and the mixer from xfce?17:37
charlie-tcaIt is too late when the new image posts at http://cdimages.ubuntu.com/ . If no new image goes up, it keeps the previous test results.17:37
charlie-tcaUnit193: I will ask stgrabber to let me access the reports, then maybe we can figure what is really happening.17:40
ochosinanotube: yes17:41
Unit193That'd be awesome, but it'd be nice if more could do it (see if I'm doing something wrong. I don't like the new system so much, but I do try)17:41
charlie-tcaI know that feeling, too. It is very difficult when we can't see things for more than a few hours at a day.17:42
charlie-tcaI do plan on moving my test schedule to the wiki, for all to see and use. It makes sense now that we are tracking using the qa tracker.17:43
ochosireminder: meeting in ~15min17:46
nanotubeochosi: well... fwiw that gnome panel has a lot more options than the xfce panel. :) for one, it lets me choose hdmi output. the other day some guy came in and asked about setting hdmi output, i pointed him to the panel and he said 'i can't see anything like that here'... 17:47
nanotubeif i'd known it was a gnome panel, i'd have told him heh17:47
ochosinanotube: but it's deprecated (at least gnome2 panel)17:47
ochosipersonally i've never missed anything in the panel17:48
ochosibrb17:48
nanotubewell, it came with oneiric install... so it can't be that deprecated :) (and iirc, it looked exactly the same from the ubuntu/unity side, so it must be a gnome3 panel, because i'm sure oneiric doesn't have gnome2)17:49
ochosinotice: i'll conduct the meeting in absence of knome today18:00
ochosisince it's my first time, feel free to let me know if i miss something or make a mistake (e.g. charlie-tca)18:01

ochosimr_pouit: or: when would you be ready?18:03
mr_pouitI don't have much to say anyway: the usual amount of bugfix uploads this week18:03
ochosishall i say something about xfdesktop?18:04
mr_pouit(I need some testing to be done, so I need to follow up by mail on xubuntu-devel)18:04
mr_pouitmmh, as you wish18:04
ochosiok, you can still post to the ml18:04
ochosi#info mr_pouit has applied some long-standing patches from bugzilla.xfce.org to xfdesktop for precise18:04
ochosi#info since it isn't maintained upstream at the moment (devs are waiting for the desktop to become a thunar-extension) it makes sense to patch it for xubuntu downstream18:05
ochosi#info among the patches is e.g. (rudimentary) thumbnail-support for the desktop18:06
ochosimicahg: anything from your side?18:06
micahgnot really18:07

ochosi#info From Xfce 4.10 onwards the help-button will point there, which will also mean no docs for people who are offline18:17

knomemicahg, i'm working on it with stgraber who created this feature in the first place, and we can most probably cooperate much with ubuntu studio too18:39
micahgidk, I just don't see those delineations as useful to xubuntu18:40
knomei think accessible vs. normal is quite a good idea18:40
knomeif it proves to be too much work, we'll vote again, ok? :)18:41
