knomenope00:00
knomei'm investigating to get it working for xubuntu too...00:00
len-1204knome, DL complete.00:00
knomeoh right, the painkillers00:00
astraljavaWell I wasn't really referring to... yeah. :)00:00
knomeit all started with a broken, 2 meter tall door...00:00
astraljavaOuch!00:00
knomelen-1204, okay, now open a file manager00:00
len-1204Ja, done00:01
knomelen-1204, browse to ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu/slideshows/ubuntustudio/slides/link/00:01
knomelen-1204, open base.css00:01
knomelen-1204, on line 69, it should say: height: 550px;00:02
knomelen-1204, change that to 470px00:02
knomelen-1204, you probably want to keep that file open for possible future editing00:02
knomelen-1204, then, go back to ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu/00:03
knomelen-1204, ping me when done00:03
len-1204knome ping00:04
knomeastraljava, remember our hallway cabinets? one of those doors fell of :)00:04
knomelen-1204, okay, now run test-slideshow.sh00:04
knomelen-1204, select ubuntustudio00:04
knomeand click okay00:04
knome;)00:04
knomenow, does the slideshow fit in your netbook monitor?00:04
astraljavaknome: Sorry to hear that. :(00:06
knomeastraljava, well, the pains come from *fixing* that...00:07
len-1204knome: yes it fits with a white bar on the bottom. I can't see the bottom of the window itself. but that may be something else.00:08
knomelen-1204, so you still can't see the progressbar?00:09
knome:<00:09
astraljavaknome: Not so sorry. EVO. :)00:09
knomehahah.00:09
knomewell00:09
len-1204There is more than enough room for the info that normally goes there.00:09
len-1204Should I see one with this test.00:09
knomeastraljava, wife was leaving to work, when it fell off. he handed me the door and "i have to go now..."00:10
astraljava...as she should... :)00:10
knomelen-1204, hmm? i didn't quite follow you00:10
len-1204should I see a progress bar with test-slideshow.sh? There is room for it.00:11
knomeyes00:11
knomeyou should, it should actually appear just under the white line00:11
knometry to alt+drag00:11
len-1204knome, it appears the SS is cut off but the Pbar has not moved up then.00:12
knomehmm00:12
knomescreenshot would help... :)00:12
knomelen-1204, actually, try this:00:15
knomelen-1204, in u-s-u/slideshows/ubuntustudio, edit slideshow.conf00:15
knomeand change the height value for 47000:15
len-1204knome, the P bar is there all right. just under the screen.00:15
knomeafter that, i'd *love* a screenshot00:15
len-1204I have a screen shot now, but I will try that first then I will have more.00:16
knomegreat00:16
len-1204That works but I would like to try some more values... it could be taller.00:19
knomecan you give me a shot now, and i can tell you what you should try?00:19
knomei mean, i can check the exact "free" pixel amount00:20
len-1204Knome I have tried 520, How do I send you a screen shot? Can I ndo it with irc?00:22
knomelen-1204, http://imagebin.org/00:23
knomelen-1204, -> http://imagebin.org/index.php?page=add00:23
knomeso 520 works too?00:24
knomewonderful.00:24
knomeeeeeexcellent.00:24
ScottLknome, will 520 change the layout drastically, specifically will i need to crop the images further?00:25
knomeScottL, no, it will be done automatically.00:25
knomeScottL, i mean, what is overlapping is just... overlapping and hidden :)00:25
len-1204knome http://imagebin.org/20444200:26
ScottLthat looks good to me, i don't mind it "falling off" the bottom00:26
knomelen-1204, awesome00:26
ScottLat least as much as "falling off" the right ;)00:26
knomelen-1204, thanks a lot for testing00:27
len-1204knome, I set both heights to 520. In the two files we were playing with.00:27
knomeyup, that's great00:27
len-1204knome do I have to do anything with the imagebin, or just leave it?00:29
knomelen-1204, just leave it, and as far as i'm concerned, feel free to remove the u-s-u directory too :)00:29
len-1204When I do the next test install.... it will vanish...00:30
knomethat's right ;)00:35
knomeuaaaah.00:46
knome:)00:46
knomeScottL, you still on?00:48
ScottLknome, yes00:57
ScottLCFHowlett, are you mr. e ?00:58
knomeScottL, feel free to test https://code.launchpad.net/~knome/ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu/ubuntustudio00:58
ScottLokay00:58
knomeScottL, i already added a comment on the UIFe bug00:58
knomebut just to let you see this too ;)00:59
CFHowlettyes I am.  why?00:59
CFHowlett*gotta change that thing..."00:59
ScottLknome, i noticed the slideshow had the window sliders/scroll on the bottom and the right01:25
ScottLknome, and the slides seemed to move slowly (maybe it was just loading during installation)01:25
ScottLoh, for item #1, it seemed that the background/image/text was too big for the "windows" and therefore required the scroll/sliders01:26
ScottLCFHowlett, you sent me an email and i don't remember if i responded or not01:27
CFHowlettScottL   probably my request about the "etched ubuntu" proposed wallpapers.  I would like them to be released even if they're not in the official wallpaper package.01:27
CFHowlett*please*01:28
ScottLi have it on my list for this cycle, which is coming up near the top of the list01:37
ScottLas long as i have a clear licensing on them i can do it :)01:37
ScottLCFHowlett, ^^^01:37
CFHowlettScottL   good to know.  As I stated, that is some excellent art ... very appropriate for a design distro ...01:38
astraljavaScottL: now that seeing CFHowlett here, reminded me about the support channel topic. Have you fixed it yet?01:39
astraljava...and this channel's topic could use some love, too. :)01:40
ScottLsadly, i don't really remember what it was :/02:10
CFHowlettI commented that the topic of #ubuntustudio gave excessive mention of audio production while virtually ignoring graphics and video.  I wrote up an alternate topic which I've now completely forgotten ...02:12
astraljavaCFHowlett: Do you have the suggestion available handy? I can dig it up from the logs if you don't.02:18
CFHowlettastraljava   please find it in logs - about 45 days ago?  02:18
astraljavairclogs/freenode/#ubuntustudio.log:2726:00:33 < cfhowlett> Greetings mods:  Suggested update to the default ubotto description of this channel: "Ubuntu Studio is a collection of multimedia tools for musicians, writers, film-makers, photographers, desktop-publishers, designers and other media digital artists."02:22
astraljavaCFHowlett: That one?02:22
CFHowlettexactly!02:22
astraljavaScottL: What do you think?02:22
ScottLsounds good02:23
CFHowlettswitch  *digital media* artists02:23
ScottLi can update this topic in a bit02:23
astraljavaGreat! Thanks guys! Now just come up with something sane for this channel as well. :)02:24
CFHowlettlol!02:24
ScottLoh, the ubiquity background/text issue seems fixed02:24
astraljavaSchweet!02:24
CFHowlettScottL   last line should be *digital media artists*02:24
ScottLi have a list that i'm checking off, which reminds me that i need to get back up there and check on it02:24
ScottLCFHowlett, i'll fix it02:25
ScottLhehe, the old topic in #ubuntustudio says 'we do not have a live cd"02:25
astraljavaScottL: Err... how can it be? There is no us-live-settings package in the archives, yet.02:27
ScottLastraljava, i haven't a clue actually02:27
astraljavaScottL: I suppose a lot of documentation needs to be fixed regarding that message in many other places, too.02:27
ScottLgood question, but it worked correctly02:28
ScottLastraljava, interstingly i'm not a channel operator in #ubuntustudio and therefore cannot change the topic :P02:28
ScottLyou, or someone else, may have to do that02:28
astraljavaScottL: No big surprise. It's those blasted IRC mods who can't do their jobs properly... *snicker*02:28
ScottLastraljava, after i check a few things, only take a few minutes, i will reinstall and test the ubiquity installer from the live FS02:29
astraljavaScottL: I don't suppose I've been granted those privileges. I just assumed you had.02:29
astraljavajussi: Can you check how the privileges for our channels have been distributed?02:30
ScottLhuh, my install is not finished yet and may be hung :(02:31
astraljavaScottL: "Preparing to install Ubuntu-Studio" — why the dash?02:45
astraljavaUgh... and we have Xubuntu's logo there, too.02:45
CFHowlettastraljava  feel the same way about the x/logo.  That'll be the first fix I apply post-installation.02:46
astraljavaIsn't it "professional-grade", _with_ the dash there?02:52
ScottLastraljava, where is this?02:55
ScottLi *think* i found the problem with the 64bit image installation problem perhaps02:55
ScottLit looks like update-manger-core (someversion.9) couldn't be installed as a dependencies02:56
ScottLbut the image was built02:56
ScottLwhich i am presuming might have caused the installation to hang02:56
astraljavaScottL: During the first few steps, there was that as a title. professional grade was in the slideshow. I'd also like to see the link as http://ubuntustudio.org, and some mention of IRC on the other row of the last slideshow page.02:58
ScottLlaunchpad is showing that version 1:0.156.9 was published 9 hours and 20 minute ago which might mean some of these packages were not available during build time02:58
ScottLi am surmising02:58
ScottLastraljava, those are not the final slides, i have changes them significantly02:59
ScottLastraljava,  bzr branch lp:ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu02:59
ScottL browse to ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu03:00
astraljavaScottL: Ok, thanks.03:00
ScottL run test-slideshow.sh and select ubuntu studio03:00
ScottLthey are dramatically different and i don't think have the xubuntu logo anywhere (at least i hope not)03:01
ScottL(not to denegrate the xubuntu logo)03:01
astraljavaOh, it's hideous, but that's not the point. *grin*03:01
ScottLwhich reminds me, knome i saw the email on the new xubuntu logo, i really like the new one quite a lot03:02
ScottLlol astraljava 03:02
astraljavaIs there no Alt + F4 method for seeing what the installer is doing, like there is for alternate?03:03
astraljavaI still miss the alternate installer... *snif*03:04
astraljavaAt least I can still play with it over on the Xubuntu side. :)03:04
ScottLi tried did alt-f1 and checked casper.log and a few others03:05
ScottLis alt-f4 special?03:05
astraljavaAlt+F1 doesn't seem to work i qemu at least. I'll try that on real hw install later.03:06
ScottLi'll check tomorrow image (and check the email for other build failures)03:06
ScottLastraljava, you can see the first slide from len-1204 's imagebin:  http://imagebin.org/20444203:07
astraljavaYeah.03:07
astraljavaLooks very different from this one.03:08
astraljavaI'm having just different shades of gray.03:08
astraljavaScottL: http://astraljava.kapsi.fi/us_precise_dash-and-xubuntu-logo.png03:15
len-1204astraljava, instead of alt-F4, I open a terminal and go: less /var/log/syslog03:16
len-1204then when it runs type F (capital)03:17
len-1204It is about the same as what was on alt F403:17
len-1204Just the install is different ... with the live dvd we are not opening packages....03:18
len-1204tail -F doen't work BTW.03:18
ScottLastraljava, ah, i see, i wonder where that is?03:18
astraljavalen-1204: Open a terminal? When ubiquity is running?03:18
ScottLi'm guessing we need grep'ing xubuntu in our packages03:19
astraljavalen-1204: Oh, you went to the live session first?03:19
len-1204I try to open it before, but if you are running live you should be able to... switch desktops helps too.03:19
astraljavalen-1204: But that's not possible when you chose to install it directly at the menu.03:19
len-1204Ya, live session.03:20
len-1204True.03:20
len-1204Youe can still open a console and do it there... I have had problems in the past doing that though.03:20
astraljavalen-1204: Right, but is that possible when testing in qemu?03:21
len-1204I have never tried that.03:21
len-1204If you can cd to the root dir of the running iso image it should be possible.03:23
astraljavaHa!03:23
astraljavaCtrl+Alt+1, type `sendkey ctrl-alt-f1', Ctrl+Alt+1 again.03:24
astraljavaOh sorry, should have been 2 at first.03:27
len-1204astraljava, qemu is a virtual machine?03:31
astraljavalen-1204: Yep.03:31
astraljavalen-1204: You might have missed it, but there's an excellent testing tool for images, called testdrive. Makes it very easy to test dailies.03:32
len-1204I looked at it, what I do is not that much more complex.03:33
astraljavaIn it you can choose between various virtual machines, I picked up qemu-kvm as vbox failed in getting the guest on the internet.03:33
astraljavalen-1204: Of course it's not that hard to do zsync etc., but I found it pretty nifty.03:34
len-1204I have a script on my desktop, double click and it syncs the iso. then print the usb stick and go.03:34
astraljavaSure.03:34
len-1204It is a real install on a real machine. I want to test that way. I "should" be doing more on my desktop.03:35
len-1204It has an nvidea (or however they spell it) card.03:35
astraljavaYeah I need to do more testing on hw, I've been lazy recently.03:35
astraljavaNvidia/nVidia, I'm not sure either.03:36
len-1204I have found the live session is really good the install seems identical03:37
len-1204but install test ubiquity.03:37
len-1204s/test/tests/03:37
kubotulen-1204 meant: "but install tests ubiquity."03:37
astraljavaGood to hear. I assume I'll get used to it soon, then I'll carry around a USB stick with persistent data.03:38
len-1204For "real" work, I have found memory a limit with live.03:39
len-1204I only have 1G03:39
astraljavaYep.03:44
astraljavalen-1204: But you can report a working i386 installation on real hw, right?03:52
astraljavalen-1204: I'll be attending a QA meeting tomorrow, it occurs before the new images are rolled, so I'll go with information on today's images.03:53
len-1204yes, I don't have an amd64 or eqiv.03:53
len-1204I think Scott was going to install tonight though.03:54
astraljavalen-1204: Neither Scott nor me could install amd64, it still hangs, which is probably a known glitch caused by a problem in update-manager-core package.03:54
len-1204or did he say it failed already?03:54
astraljavaYea.03:54
len-120432 bit is ok.03:54
astraljavaGood, that pretty much confirms Scott's assumptions.03:55
len-1204the other stuff is that I have been working on a workflow application launcher.03:56
len-1204looks like a panel, but instead of applications it has workflows.03:57
astraljavaNice.03:57
len-1204select the workflow and the workflows go away to be replaced by the apps for that workflow.03:58
astraljavaSounds interesting.03:58
len-1204It is actually really simple (less than 300 lines) in script. I will post some screen shots soon.03:59
astraljavaBest inventions are the simplest. Well okay, may not apply to linux, but you get the point. :)04:00
len-1204The idea is that a workflow meta would install the workflow to go with the applications. Or workflows if the apps will support more than one.04:01
len-1204It looks at multiple config files, one for each workflow or more than one workflow per file works too.04:02
len-1204The apps can be just a desktop file or exec and icon and name or desc.04:03
len-1204It seems to work fine, but I am trying to make it more configurable.04:05
astraljavaRight on. It'll be a good addition for user-friendliness.04:05
len-1204It is written in tcl/tk. The tool kit and libs have changed, but the scripting has stayed the same for a long time. I am using a book from 1997 and the stuff still works. No need to upgrade the software every time the lib changes04:10
len-1204I'm looking for low maintenance.04:11
astraljavaSure, it's a good pick for that then. :)04:14
TheMusogrrr seems Tim's tree that our low latency kernel is based on had a few patches applied that seem to always cause conflicts when rebasing, and there shouldn't really be any conflicts, so far as I understand.04:35
* TheMuso starts with a fresh precise tree and re-adds necessary bits for low latency.04:35
TheMusoAnd see if that helps.04:35
astraljavaTheMuso: Oh yea, I do recall seeing Alessio mentioning that same thing a while back.04:50
TheMusoHrm ok I wish I was told sooner.04:51
astraljavaHe might have highlighted you, I'm not sure anymore.04:52
TheMusoDon't think he did, because I don't remember reading it.04:53
TheMusono biggy though04:53
astraljavairclogs/freenode/#ubuntustudio-devel.log:5463:16:41 < abogani> TheMuso: I'm going to drop Tim's changes to -lowlatency because those prevent git rebase.04:54
astraljavaMarch 13th.04:55
astraljavaSo a little over a week ago.04:55
TheMusoOh right, that was what that was. That was not clear.05:03
TheMusoI.e I couldn't work out what he meant.05:03
TheMusoBut whats interesting is that I'm having the same problem if I create a new low latency branch against precise-3.2.0-18.2805:04
TheMusoand then rebase, I still get conflicts...05:04
astraljavaWeird.05:04
TheMusoIndeed.05:05
astraljavaTheMuso: Well, I know you're very busy, so if you could document just very briefly on how you're creating new lowlatency branches against mainline kernels, I could try too to have an attempt of taking some of that load off your shoulders.05:06
TheMusoastraljava: Will do, once I have something that rebases properly, sure.05:06
astraljavaThanks! Imma try to catch some zzz's now. :)05:07
TheMusoOk.05:08
micahgastraljava: I forgot, you need an FFe for the ubuntustudio-default-settings package since you're adding a new binary05:29
jussiastraljava: /msg chanserv access #ubuntustudio-devel  list09:47
astraljavajussi: Thanks! You could remove Joe from there, I don't think we'll see him anytime soon. :)10:01
astraljavajussi: Add Scott instead.10:01
jussiScottL: is there...10:02
astraljavaSorry, meant the support channel.10:02

astraljavaWell, it's better than cut-off sentences/links.10:07
astraljavaLet me know what you want to have on there, it's a tad short atm.10:07
knomeScottL, scrollers? huh...10:12
knomeScottL, i can't see them. were they in a 'real' installation?10:13
astraljavaknome: I saw scrollers in a qemu installation.10:32
astraljavascrollbars...10:32
knome>__<10:32
knomedamn...10:32
knomebut that was before the "520-patch" ?10:32
knomeclearly had to be10:32
knomeuh oh10:32
astraljavaYeah for sure, I didn't tamper the settings at all.10:32
knomethat's crap.10:33
knomein wonder what's wrong, since those don't show up in the test-slideshow-script10:33
astraljavaThe script might not be a 100% match for that environment.10:37
knomei wonder if they show up if you run the qemu installation and ran the test script there10:37
knomedo they show up there too, or is it only in the installer10:38
astraljavaI can check after "breakfast". :)10:48
ailoTheMuso: Are you creating a new source tree, or will you manually edit the conflicts?10:57
ailoAnd why is the tree based on Tim's tree (out of curiousity)?10:58
ailoWho is Tim? Which tree is Tim's tree?10:58
astraljavaailo: Tim is Tim Gardner, https://launchpad.net/~timg-tpi. A member of UKT.10:59
ailoastraljava: I C. I recognize the name from mail lists. Just wondering if Tim's tree is the main Ubuntu tree, or something else. I believe the conflicts exist trying to rebase against the main ubuntu source11:02
astraljavaailo: I'm fairly sure Tim's a key player in ubuntu kernel development now, so his additions are needed in order to having as close to vanilla kernel as possible.11:04
TheMusoailo: Creating a fresh source tree.11:09
ailoTheMuso: Looking forward to some docs and like astraljava, I'll gladly help on that as well. 11:19
TheMusoOk.11:20
* TheMuso runs a quick test-build and test install before upload.11:22
TheMusoIts late here tonight, so I am more concerned about getting this uploaded, but will document something in the next few days when I get a chance.11:22
TheMusoOh and I have fixed up the configs. Seems that abogani didn't properly set up the lowlatency config settings so they were used. Anyway, taken care of.11:29
astraljavaTheMuso: Thanks! Don't worry about the docs, I'll poke ya regularly about it. A huge thank you for your great work!11:30
TheMusoOk.11:30
TheMusonp11:30
scott-workjussi: could you moderate my and/or astraljava's permission for the #ubuntustudio channel so we can update the topic?12:58
scott-worki guess we shoudl start thinking about what we should work on for next cycle13:00
astraljavascott-work: I like the sound of that. :)14:13
astraljavaBut first... I'm off to sauna. :)14:13
ttoineastraljava, your life is hard ;-)14:14
ailoastraljava: I only have access to a Swedish sauna. Hot, but dry :(. So, I'm envious.14:14
astraljavaHehe. :)14:15
astraljavattoine: It's the only luxury in my life at the moment, trust me.14:15
astraljavaailo: I hear ya. It's gotta be more moist, but not a turkish one either.14:15
* astraljava hopes for good results from a phone call in 4 hours. That could bring more luxury in my life, but not very fast either.14:16
ailoThe sauna I can use is a public one. It's very large and takes a long time to get moist. Too much work. Whenever I'm recording a Finnish dance band a bit outside of town, we always use the sauna there. Heated with wood. Now, that's a real sauna!14:17
astraljavaChances are extremely slim, though.14:17
astraljavaYeah, I'd prefer such, but it's not that good. Pretty nice for an electric, though.14:18
astraljavaOk, see ya in an hour or so.14:18
ttoinehave a nice time14:23
ttoineand "s h i t" for your phone call. (in france we don't say good luck)14:23
jussiscott-work: I cant, sorry. you need to go and ask in #ubuntu-irc-council14:34
ailottoine: Sort of like "Break a leg" then :)14:36
ttoineailo, ah ok. thanks. french is not so polite, I am confused14:37
ailottoine: I might prefer French in this case14:39
ttoine;-)14:40
ttoineailo, the phonecall of astraljava is so important ?14:40
ailottoine: Don't know. 14:42
ttoineailo, a question more about what matters : some news of a lowlatency kernel ?14:44
ailottoine: There should be a new one available shortly. If I'm not quick enough to remind you, you should see it when you update. I would be happy to hear about your results also14:45
ttoineailo, great !14:48
scott-workjussi: okay, thank you :)14:49
astraljavattoine: Heheh... Well yeah, anything will do. It's such a fat chance.14:50
astraljavascott-work: We better get both channels dealt with at the same time. There are some outdated privileges on them both.14:51
astraljavattoine: It could be important, don't get me wrong. It would totally turn my life around.14:51
astraljavaBut as so often, such occurences are extremely rare.14:52
ttoineastraljava, yes...14:52
astraljavattoine: Which town were you living in, btw.?15:12
astraljavaNot Toulouse, I hope.15:12
ttoineastraljava, ho, news are going far... I am living in Lyon, and I am not nor a soldier neither jewish...15:16
astraljavattoine: Ok, good. Although I just heard from a friend in Toulouse that they've surrounded the suspect, so hopefully it'll go smoothly from here on out.15:18
ttoineyes. It was the biggest buzz of this day : news in realtime on the internet, information iv channels, etc... started 3am...15:20
astraljavaI can imagine. It's not happening every day, anywhere in Europe, after all.15:21
ttoineyes. hopefully fire arms are not easily available in our countries15:24
astraljavaWe just have to stay strong and fight the lobbyists.15:25
ttoineand this guys made two mistakes : going in training centers of al qaida, and using rare guns and amunitions15:25
ttoineI agree with you... I am the first french generation without having to pass through conscription15:26
ttoineso i never wear a uniform, nor used any fire arms, except small calibers in clubs15:27
ttoineit is a very great chance15:29
astraljavaIn Finland, we still have mandatory service, so I've shot with guns, even big guns. But I don't like it. Even then, I do understand using them for defending, but not for attacking.15:33
astraljavaBut this is all way too off-topic for this channel. :)15:34
ttoineyes ;-)15:34
astraljavamicahg: Oh yeah, about the FFe, I'm on it right after the QA meeting. Thanks for the heads-up!16:20
micahgastraljava: sorry for spacing on that16:47
scott-workif i still planned on doing the following, are there any procedural (or otherwise) objstacles?16:54
scott-work* adding more wallpapers to the -wallpapers package16:54
scott-work* adjusting the -default-settings package for new desktop image16:54
scott-work* adjusting the -lightdm package for new background image16:55
scott-work* adjusting the -default-settings for different panel layout16:55
scott-work* and adding sane, default settings for jack16:55
scott-work  16:55
astraljavamicahg: Not at all, I should have realized it anyway.16:57
astraljavamicahg: I'm working on it already.16:57
astraljavascott-work: Nothing ground-breaking, like this new package-adding that I'm working on. I see no problems, but then again I don't manage the releases. :)16:58
scott-workastraljava: is micahg typing to you?  i don't see him :P16:58
astraljavaHmm... yes, yes he is in the channel, at least according to weechat. :)16:59
astraljavascott-work: Does nick completion work in the webchat?16:59
scott-worki meant, you appear to be having a conversation with no one as i don't see any responses from him17:00
scott-workyes, nick completion with with webchat17:00
astraljavascott-work: Oh. Well yeah, he highlighted me about 15 minutes ago. :)17:02
scott-workah, that makes more sense then :P17:04
astraljavaHehe, yeah. :)17:06
scott-workoh, i guess i never really asked my direct question about what i said before (obstacles to continued development)....18:15
scott-workwill i need to file any FFe's for anything in the list18:15
scott-work?18:15
scott-work  18:15
scott-workalso, micahg, is there anything else that needs to be done at this point for security?  have we done enough for me to email the TB?  are there issues to follow up on later?18:16
micahgscott-work: I think that's it, the idea was to know how much effort will be necessary to support US specific packages over the life of the US LTS, if you're comfortable with the amount of work, then you can include that information in response to the TB18:20
micahgwell, include the info anyway, I meant if you're comfortable, you can continue with your petition :)18:20
micahgthere's bug fix work also in addition to the devel release work18:21
scott-workmicahg: i think that development should be reduced in the next few cycles, simply because we made such large fundamental progress this cycle18:25
micahgscott-work: development includes merges/syncs (after DIF that are wanted) and bug fixes18:25
scott-workgood point18:26
micahgs#/#,#18:26
micahgI've been watching the merges/sync, but would prefer someone else to keep an eye on those for Q18:26
micahgwe can discuss that at UDS18:27
scott-workmicahg: that would be awesome (both to me more involved in it and to talk about it), i do remember you broached the subject at last UDS18:28
astraljavamicahg: bug #961371, tried to follow the FFe procedure as to the point as applicable.20:06
ubottuLaunchpad bug 961371 in ubuntustudio-default-settings (Ubuntu) "[FFe] Please update ubuntustudio-default-settings for precise" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/96137120:06
micahgastraljava: yep, now we just have to wait I guess20:06
len_knome ping20:09
knomelen_, pong20:14
len_knome re scroll bars on ubiquity slide show.20:15
knomeyes?20:15
len_I remember they didn't used to be there but then the progrss bar was like the test.20:16
knomelen_, they appear on hardware?20:16
knomelen_, or, are you running on qemu20:16
len_When they added the text stuff, the scroll bars appeared20:16
knome"text stuff" ?20:16
len_Yeah the text that says things like transfering files or configuring target system20:17
knomeagain, is this appearing on hardware20:17
len_This is also true of the stock ubuntu slide show.20:17
len_yes, I do all my testing on hardware.20:17
knomeoh my... though, it's good to know it happens on the ubuntu slide show too.20:18
knomeif there isn't a bug, could you file one?20:18
len_Yes, I am downloading the sync for todays iso, I will file after I test.20:18
knomethanks20:18
knomeplease paste me the bug # after you've filed, and i'll forward it20:19
len_Ok20:19
astraljavamicahg: Right. Couldn't you get into the release team, so we could work these out quicker? *smirk*20:20
micahgheh, I think I have enough hats ATM :)20:20
len_I haven't looked at unity for a while, maybe I'll DL that too. Might get faster response that way for a bug that effects that.20:21
astraljavaI'm not sure, so far you seem to perform all of your roles perfectly. Perhaps there is some un-used potential, still? ;D20:21
knomehurr durrr20:23
* knome filed YET another UIFe20:23
micahgastraljava: haha, glad you think so :)20:25
astraljavamicahg: Well, any sane person would. Oh wait, then I don't fit in that category. Well anyhoo, I do. :)20:26
ttoineknome, iyho, what should be the best way to install xfce on ubuntu precise beta. the xubuntu-desktop metapackage ? or just xfce4 package ?20:29
knomettoine, i'd suggest installing the xubuntu-desktop, but of course you'd get extra apps20:30
ttoinethat's the matter, yes20:30
micahgttoine: use --no-install-recommends (but this is the wrong channel for xfce anyways)20:31
ttoinethat's not a big problem in unity, because there is no true menu. but maybe in xfce, it should be a bit overloaded by the apps20:31
ttoinemicahg, this is not the bad channel : I would like to test xfce, in order to complete the ubuntustudiopreparation wiki page20:32
ttoinemicahg, so you suggest apt-get install --no-install-recommends xubuntu-desktop ?20:33
micahgttoine: yes, you'll end with with a base Xfce desktop with the xubuntu branding20:33
ttoinegreat, thanks a lot for that tip !*20:33
astraljavaI still hate that decision, a bit, but then occasionally I want to install all suggested packages, too, so I do acknowledge it's dancing on a thin wire. :)20:40
ttoineastraljava, about changing for xfce ?20:42
ttoinemicahg, hop, it's documented20:43
astraljavattoine: No, about apt-get.20:43
micahgwell, the definition of recommends are packages that would be installed usually with this package, so it makes sense20:43
micahgyou can configure apt not to install recommends if you like20:44
astraljavamicahg: Sure. It's just that sometimes you don't actually need them all. But I do get the point.20:44
micahgright, they are removable20:44
astraljavamicahg: What actually bothers me is that sometimes I stumble upon suggests that just aren't there anymore.20:45
astraljavaSo cannot really set that as a persistent option.20:45
micahgastraljava: file bugs when that happens :)20:45
astraljavaI have.20:45
astraljavaJelmer fixed some bzr-related package just recently that I reported. But not all maintainers care that much.20:46
astraljavaRight, I suppose it's bug-hunting time, all TODOs have been acted upon.20:47
ttoineas always, anyone has some news about the lowlatency kernel ?20:49
ailottoine: No idea, but perhaps not today, and it may take a few even.20:51
ttoineok. I restart to test the xubuntu desktop, so20:51
astraljavattoine: Luke fixed the config issue, and created a new package ver. 3.2.0-19.27, but it hasn't creeped it's way into the archives just yet.20:53
astraljavaYou can find it the source package @ https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-lowlatency/3.2.0-19.2720:53
astraljava-it20:54
astraljava...or is it crept? Yeah I think it is.20:55
astraljavarexbron_: Do you actually use the nightly builds for ffmpeg?20:58
rexbron_astraljava: I use git master right now20:58
rexbron_are you refering to zombie packages?20:59
astraljavarexbron_: So we can disable the request now?20:59
rexbron_astraljava: Link? I can't say I recall what your refering to20:59
astraljavaI'm seeing those double emails every day on the list, so it seems it's not really usable.20:59
astraljavahttps://launchpad.net/~ubuntustudio-nightly/+archive/ubuntustudio-nightly/+recipebuild/20061621:00
astraljavarexbron_: That's what I was afraid of, and why I brought it up. It's probably safe to delete it, since even you don't remember it anymore. :)21:01
astraljavaYou, after all, are the requester.21:01
rexbron_astraljava: by all means21:01
astraljavarexbron_: Thanks!21:02
ttoinehop... in xubuntu desktop21:10
ttoineTheMuso, I see you21:12
ScottLTheMuso,  what do you think about making a blueprint for determining and documenting the "proper" maintenance for the lowlatency kernel?22:03
ScottLTheMuso, this would be from why it's kept in the git repos, to rebasing, and to releasing22:03
TheMusoScottL: WHy do you think it needs a blueprint? It just needs some good docs.22:03
ScottLTheMuso, i didn't know if it needs input from Tim or UKT and with the UDS coming i thought it would be a good venue to "encourage" their participation22:04
TheMusoScottL: No, I don't think it needs their input.22:04
ScottLTheMuso, ack22:05
