[10:16] <Horanche> hello everyone :D
[10:18] <Horanche> ???
[10:19] <Horanche> how can i contribute to ubuntu tv ?
[10:25] <Saviq> Horanche, hey, did you see http://www.ubuntu.com/devices/tv/contributors ?
[10:26] <Horanche> okay thank you Saviq :D
[10:26] <Saviq> Horanche, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuTV/Contributing should get you up to speed on building / trying it out etc.
[10:28] <Horanche> okay but i'm just a web programmer and a good designer i think i can can do anything
[10:29] <Horanche> i need ubuntu for test ubuntu tv ?
[10:46] <Saviq> Horanche, yes, ubuntu tv will only run on a Ubuntu system
[10:46] <Horanche> ok
[10:47] <Saviq> well, truth is it can run anywhere all the dependencies are available
[10:47] <Saviq> and Ubuntu is the easiest way to obtain those
[10:50] <Horanche> :/ i can't download build-dep :o
[10:53] <Saviq> Horanche, there's no "install" there
[10:53] <Horanche> ?? what
[10:54] <Saviq> Horanche, `apt-get build-dep unity-2d` will install the build dependencies for unity-2d
[10:54] <Saviq> not `apt-get install build-dep unity-2d`
[10:54] <Horanche> :D tank you
[10:54] <Saviq> you're armored car ;)
[10:54] <Horanche> i have exactly make this mistake --"
[10:56] <Horanche> i test them on VirtualBox
[10:57] <Horanche> but i've got a second computer which are used as media center :)
[11:07] <Saviq> Horanche, for ubuntu-tv in VBox you need to disable OpenGL, 'cause it requires shaders, which VBox's OpenGL drivers don't support
[12:04] <Horanche> saviq -> can i use your launchpad id or how can i make my own id ?
[12:07] <Horanche> i've an error from linux when i want execute bzr branch lp:~s-team/ubuntutv/trunk ubuntu-tv
[12:09] <Horanche> ERROR : Unsupported protocol for url "bzr+ssh://bazaar.launchpad.net/+branch/s-team/ubuntutv/trunk

[22:06] <_Marcus> Hi! How do people test Ubuntu TV? Do they need special TV hardware?
[22:06] <popey> _Marcus: we've mostly tested on the Acer Aspire Revo
[22:07] <popey> but you can install the software on a pretty standard computer
[22:07] <_Marcus> http://www.amazon.com/Acer-AspireRevo-AR3700-U3002-Compact-Desktop/dp/B00433SP6G <- That?
[22:07] <_Marcus> So the TVs will have to be like computers?
[22:07] <popey> yeah, those things
[22:07] <popey> no
[22:07] <_Marcus> Oh?
[22:07] <popey> thats just what we tested on
[22:08] <robclark> or on arm/omap board: http://rsalveti.wordpress.com/2012/01/16/ubuntu-tv-fully-accelerated-on-a-pandaboard-with-ubuntu-leb/   ;-)
[22:08] <popey> because TVs are so easy to flash software onto ☺
[22:10] <_Marcus> I've always been a fan of, well, I guess "Smart TVs" would be a name for them.
[22:10] <_Marcus> Like those Google TVs
[22:10] <_Marcus> Or the touchscreens ones you see on shows like NCIS.
[22:10] <popey> ☺
[22:10] <popey> i dont really want to touch my tv
[22:10] <popey> its way too far away ☺
[22:11] <robclark> touch works a bit better when the "tv" is on the back of the airplane seat in front of you
[22:11] <popey> true
[22:12] <robclark> hmm, but gesture recognition otoh...
[22:14] <_Marcus> My TV is about 7.6 miles away.
[22:14] <_Marcus> But when I get back, being able to walk up to it and browse the internet or do other things with it would be intresting
[22:15] <_Marcus> I wonder how much touch screen technology costs
[22:15] <_Marcus> That would be cool to make it work with Ubuntu TV.
[22:15] <_Marcus> The future is now :D
