hot_wheelzdoes anyone know much about http://www.ubuntu.com/tv06:38
hot_wheelzi'm guessing it could become like an officailly suppported mythtv distro right06:41
head_victimhot_wheelz: it's really only in idea stage at the moment from what I understand. I don't think there are any concrete plans to use any specific software to make it happen yet07:05
sagacihot_wheelz: basically, canonical-backed07:05

head_victimbenonsoftware: I know sagaci has set up his sftp on people.u.c recently so might be able to help wiht issues if he's around. I'd offer help but that's one of the things I've never actually used.07:38
benonsoftwarehead_victim: Thats ok :p07:49
sagaciyou just need an ssh key on your lp account that's attached to the computer you're on07:53
sagaciand then just do $ sftp jpickett@people.ubuntu.com07:53
benonsoftwaresagaci: I do that and then I cd to the public_html folder and theres nothing there07:54
sagacithat's where you put your stuff07:54
benonsoftwaresagaci: Ah, sorry all of that folder I put stuff in, Thanks07:54
sagaciyep07:55
benonsoftwareThanks07:55
head_victimTeam work :)07:55
benonsoftwarehead_victim: Did you say you are going to the q UDS?07:56
head_victimbenonsoftware: nah, can't afford it07:56
benonsoftwareI would love to go too but same as you :P07:56
benonsoftwareSay if I have a sub folder test there how do I remove it, rm -r test doesn't work08:00
sagacimake sure the folder is empty and then rmdir08:01
benonsoftwareI get Couldn't delete file: Failure08:02
sagaciworks fine for me :/08:03
benonsoftwareLucky :/08:03
head_victimI don't have anything exciting to keep on mine :P08:05
sagacias I said, just make sure the directory you're rmdir'ing is empty08:05
sagaciI'm keeping latest templates for translation there now08:05
head_victimHah you're so far into it now it's great. I am ok with rosetta and a little bit of POEdit but buggered if I know how you're doing what you are now, so far above my head.08:06
benonsoftwareMines empty when I try to delete the folder08:06
sagacihead_victim: it's a bit tedious but at least all the strings are being corrected08:07
sagaciit should be flawless by april08:07
sagacihaving said that, strings like Co&lor won't be picked up08:08
sagacibut they will be in the distant minority08:08
head_victimsagaci: I notice in the newsletters enAU is now topping translations, that in itself is awesome, you and jaddi really kicked it up a notch last cycle08:08
head_victimsagaci: yeah you'll probably only find them in testing.08:08
sagaciyep, I'm guestimating there might be ~500 strings that may need a tweak, but nothing that will confuse the user, since it's only en_AU08:09
sagaciI'll do a tute :)08:09
head_victimYeah we need to move focus from string changes to error detection08:10
head_victimNot a bad problem to have mind you08:10
sagaciIt may be time to enforce a two-pass policy08:10
sagacibut I don't think that is technically possible08:11
head_victimsagaci: yeah I think 2 pass would be worth considering, people still get karma for that.08:12
sagacikarma karma karma08:12
benonsoftware;)08:12
sagaciI was hoping for a letter from sabdfl when I passed 100,00008:13
sagaci:S08:13
sagacia generic letter, mind you08:13
head_victimWell you are second on the Ubuntu project in Launchpad afterall08:13
