mips1911any news on the 4.10 amd64 builds?09:05
mr_pouitmips1911: only xfdesktop4 remains (supposed to build in ~1h)10:47
mips1911mr_pouit: Yeah I saw there's a dependency issue with libthunarx-2-0 wanting thunar-data 1.3.2.1 but 1.4.0 is to installed10:49
mips1911mr_pouit: I see the build is complete, will install as soon apt update is complete11:36
mips1911mr_pouit: Still not working, xfdesktop4 : Depends: xfdesktop4-data (= 4.9.3-1~ppa1) but 4.10.0-0ubuntu1~ppa2 is to be installed11:39
mr_pouitthere's always a small delay between "built" and "published"11:49
mips1911ok thx, will wait a bit and try again12:07
mips1911mr_pouit: Working fine now, thx!12:24
ochosiknome: ahoi13:07
knomehey13:07
ochosisean davis sent me some screenshots of the keyboard-shortcuts overlay that he is / we are working on13:08
ochosiwanna see?13:08
knomesure13:08
ochosithere are three versions atm, we'll continue to work on the layout more13:08
ochosi1: http://imagebin.org/21128913:09
ochosi(obviously the "switching" ones are still wrong atm)13:09
knomeheh13:09
ochosi2: http://imagebin.org/21129013:10
ochosior without lines: http://imagebin.org/21129113:10
knomei prefer 113:10
ochosii'm not 100% content with the radius of the corners13:10
ochosiand the padding13:11
ochosibut in general i think we're getting somewhere13:11
knomemaybe13:11
knomebrb13:12
knomeahh13:13
knomeclean nose++13:13
ochosii'm wondering whether throwing app-icons to the app-shortcuts is too much13:14
ochosii mean it'll definitely look less clean13:14
knomemmh13:14
knomewell, my thoughts13:14
knometry to condense the descriptions13:15
knome"Open the Web Browser" -> "Web browser"13:15
ochosii haven't really been able to look at the code yet, so i don't know where these come from13:16
knomemaybe the horizontal rules could be a bit thinner13:17
knomeat least the ones splitting different categories13:17
knomeochosi, fun, telling people how to build packages when they don't have an idea what "reading readme" means13:21
ochosiyeah, what a dork :(13:21
knomeheh, that's another way to say it ;)13:22
ochosire:kb-shortcuts-overlay: yeah, this is a first preview sean sent me without me even drawing a mockup, i think he took most of the look and descriptions from unity13:22
knomeyeah, looks like it13:22
ochosii'm happy he produced working code ;)13:22
knomei think generally the text could be smaller13:22
ochosiand it kinda looks along the lines i want it to look13:22
knomeyeah, it's definitely not bad13:22
knomeyay!13:23
knomequestion "i need help with .tar.gz"13:23
ochosii'm still wondering whether we should go for a different style13:23
ochosii mean in terms of applications13:23
knomethinks problem is "can't build a package"13:23
ochosiand include edit-buttons13:23
knomeproblem is "can't read, don't know how to cd to a dir"13:23
ochosiso one can also quickly change shortcuts there13:23
ochosihehe13:23
ochosiyeah13:23
ochosior at least make the headers clickable, so you'd get to the right dialog for changing the shortcut-keys (so that things would be less duplicated)13:24
knomeyeah13:25
ochosisince he's using xfce4-notifyd as basis adding buttons should work13:25
knomebtw, did you look at the roadmap-related post draft at xubuntu.org? 13:26
ochosinope13:27
ochosiwasn't aware there was one13:28
knomethere definitely is13:28
ochosiwell, i mean i don't monitor xubuntu.org for new drafts and i don't get notifications for that :p13:28
knomehehe13:28
knomei don't think anybody does :P13:29
knomethere was some discussion about it at this channel though, so i thought you might have noticed13:29
ochosioh right, no i didn't read the backlog yesterday13:29
ochosiusually i do though13:30
ochosiyeah, that sounds good13:30
ochosii mean the post is still a bit technical and dry13:30
knomefeel free to try to liven it up13:30
ochosimaybe throw in some fancy icons or something, so that it's not _just text_ on the planet13:30
knomemaybe some kind of simple infographic13:30
ochosiand then we'll see13:30
knomehehe, yeah...13:30
knomei should compose a plugin for xubuntu.org13:30
knometo handle the access rights13:30
knomecreate a new user role and grant that to xubuntu-team13:31
ochosiother than that i think it's great to push something like this on the planet13:31
knomewe should also post it on the mailing lists etc13:31
ochosiyup13:31
ochosiat least no-one will be able to complain about our processes not being transparent enough this time around13:32
knomeheh, i'm sure someone will do anyway13:32
ochosipossible, but at least we're trying hard13:32
knomeor complain that his item with no assignee didn't get approved/implemented13:32
knomehttp://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/compfight/13:33
knomeOOG13:33
knome*OOH13:34
knomegot to love that13:34
ochosiyeah, sounds great13:34
ochosican we install plugins without IS?13:34
knomeof course not.13:34
ochosiso it'll take ages until we get that? :)13:35
knomehehe, yeah...13:35
knomenot that we need that now13:35
knomebut would be a welcome addition at some point13:35
ochosiyup13:36
ochosii'm wondering whether replacing the social-media text-links with icons or badges would be a good idea13:37
ochosithey're just a lot more easily recognizable that way13:37
knomemaybe13:38
ochosii can quickly put 16px versions of those two together if you wanna test it13:38
knomesure13:38
ochosiknome: file:///usr/share/icons/elementary-xfce/social/16/twitter.svg13:40
ochosi;)13:40
knomelol13:40
ochosifor g+ i'll quickly dig13:40
ochosithis one looks ok: http://www.thecardiologydaily.com/images/google_plus.png13:42
ochosii can draw those myself as well, but for testing these two should suffice13:42
knomewill test a bit later13:44
ochosik, feel free to ping me when you do13:48
knomewill do13:48
knomeochosi, http://temp.knome.fi/xubuntu/web_shots/roadmap-infographic.png14:21
ochosiknome: great! i like it a lot14:22
knomegood14:22
knomeis it clear enough?14:22
ochosiwe should probably also put that somewhere on the roadmap page14:22
knomeheh, maybe14:22
knomethough the roadmap phases are going to be described in the SD14:23
knomedon't want infographics *there* but...14:23
knomemost of this happens in a week anyway14:23
knomei mean, in a few weeks, we are at the "roadmap" stage14:23
ochosiyup true14:23
ochosii think it's pretty clear, but it'd be better to ask someone who wasn't involved in creating the process ;)14:24
ochosie.g. in #xubuntu14:24
knomeupdated the infographic14:25
ochosinice14:25
ochosiwondering whether s/Roadmap brainstorming/Add to Roadmap brainstorming/ ?14:25
ochosiso that it's clearer that people have to submit their ideas14:25
ochosibut maybe that's clear anyway14:25
knomeor add "submitting" next to the first arrow14:26
ochosiyup14:26
ochosibetter maybe14:26
knomehmm... /me goes with something like that14:26
knomeresolves visual issue with "approved" too14:26
knomeupdated14:30
ochosigood14:32
knomeupdated once more :)14:34
ochosiyup, better again14:34
knomei think that's about it14:34
knomeand one more time, adding title14:36
ochosiyup, looks ready now14:37
knomenow to upload and add that to the post14:37
ochosibtw, audience is pretty nice already14:41
knomehttp://xubuntu.org/?p=1077&preview=true14:41
knomehttp://www.flickr.com/photos/58105305@N00/2768941171/ <- :P14:43
knomeshould we use that pic too14:43
ochosihehe, definitely ;)14:44
knomeif the light buld was lit up, that would be perfect14:44
knome*bulb14:44
ochosimaybe <strong>submit your ideas</strong> in the first paragraph14:44
knomerefresh14:45
ochosiyes, that's better14:48
ochosialso makes the text more structured14:49
* knome is taking a shower14:52
knomei'll publish that when i get back, unless you have further ideas how to improve14:52
* knome releases the edit-lock too14:52

lekinHi all !20:58
lekinI installed Xubuntu 12.04 amd64 and configured it over the past 2 days. I actually wanted to use it tomorrow. Unfortunately there are too many serious bugs, e.g. in Thunar and Leafpad.21:03
baizonand the bugs are?21:03
baizonyou can switch from leafpad to gedit for example21:03
lekinThunar bypasses the Trash on a bind mount.21:04
baizonlekin: try pcmanfm21:04
lekinLeafpad can't handle a 880 KB file.21:04
GridCubelekin, you can use geany for editing21:06
lekinBetter skip the standard applications?21:06
GridCubethey are not power tools21:07
GridCubewe had a discussion for this a while back, we decided that apt-get is just a few strokes away from any user needed more advanced tools, we should ship the ones that do standard work for users in a simple way21:08
lekinI like the desktop environment, it's clear and fast. But I also need reliable basic tools like an editor and a graphical file manager...21:11
GridCube:) you can have all you want21:11
lekinI used 10.04 with Gnome 2 before (and still do). I am not willing to use the Unity desktop environment nor Gnome 3.21:14
lekinIs Xfce reliable enough to use it with the former Gnome standard tools?21:16
GridCubeit should be21:17
lekinI think most people use Xubuntu because of it's traditional desktop environment, not because of a lack of RAM and CPU power. What do you think?21:20
GridCube:) the same21:20
GridCubelekin, care to go to #xubuntu-offtopic 21:20
GridCube:)21:21
GridCubethis channel if for development21:21
lekinOK. Sorry. Are you interested in further details of the Thunar + Leafpad bugs?21:22
GridCubeyes, ofcourse :)21:22
GridCubecare to report them to launchpad?21:23
lekinOK. URI available?21:24
GridCubefrom a terminal write: ubuntubug leafpad21:24
GridCubeand ubuntu bug thunar21:25
GridCubeand it will compile information for you and send the report to launchpad21:25
GridCubeyou will need to log in to launchpad for the report to complete, so its a standard user registration, the register go to your mail to end registration and such, if you dont have an account already21:26
lekinAh, ubuntu-bug !21:33
GridCubeoh... yeah... sorry 'bout that21:41
knomehrm23:32
GridCubehmmhm?23:33
knomehullo23:33
knome2:30am o.o23:33
GridCubejust 20:35 here23:35
knomeyeah23:35
knomehttp://xubuntu.org/news/brainstorming-the-12-10-release/23:43
GridCubei forgot what lists i had to make to the brainstorming23:46
GridCubeoooo23:46
GridCubei remember, webcams default programs23:46
GridCubeand arandr23:46
knomefiled a new ticket for IS to pull a new plugin23:48
knomewith that, we'll be able to give the team a bit more access rights :)23:48
GridCube:P23:48
