| ochosi | madnick_: ping :) | 08:34 |
|---|---|---|
| madnick_ | ochosi: pong | 08:37 |
| ochosi | madnick_: just quickly wanted to follow up on yesterday | 08:38 |
| ochosi | i was kinda on and off because we had friends over | 08:38 |
| madnick_ | ah okay | 08:39 |
| madnick_ | Well, I haven't done anything yet | 08:39 |
| ochosi | yeah, i didn't expect you to :) | 08:39 |
| ochosi | but i thought we could talk about the next steps | 08:39 |
| madnick_ | sure | 08:40 |
| ochosi | i think first off we should register a new launchpad project, called "xubuntu-greeter" | 08:40 |
| ochosi | next, we should fork the current working branch of unity-greeter to that project and then start working on it there | 08:40 |
| ochosi | we can define what we want to change (bg,logo,text) and go through with that step-by-step | 08:41 |
| madnick_ | yeah | 08:41 |
| ochosi | which of these things do you want me to do? :} | 08:41 |
| madnick_ | Well, creating the lp project and forking would be great, because I have so many lp projects that are inactive hehe | 08:43 |
| madnick_ | Its starting to look bad ;) | 08:43 |
| ochosi | hehe | 08:43 |
| ochosi | ok, well it doesn't really matter who creates the project though | 08:43 |
| ochosi | it's just important that we create a team that takes over maintenance | 08:43 |
| madnick_ | yeah | 08:43 |
| madnick_ | Well, tell you what, I'll review the current code tonight, and read about its condition, to get a grip of what needs to be done with the code, generally | 08:44 |
| ochosi | sounds good | 08:45 |
| madnick_ | But if we need the lp project now, I wont be able to do that, because I am going to bed | 08:45 |
| madnick_ | very soon | 08:45 |
| ochosi | yeah, np | 08:45 |
| ochosi | i can create it and link it to the blueprint | 08:45 |
| madnick_ | awesome | 08:45 |
| ochosi | it would be nice if you could put the things that need to be done in the blueprint as well, in form of workitems | 08:45 |
| madnick_ | sure | 08:46 |
| ochosi | great, sounds like a plan | 08:46 |
| madnick_ | Seems there is only vala source now, no C source | 08:47 |
| madnick_ | Also, without looking deeper into it (ill do that tonight), a first glance would indicate there is much hardcoded things still, so I dunno about translations | 08:48 |
| olbi | xubuntu-greeter sounds nice, now I use ubuntu-greeter but kde light-dm looks fantastic | 08:50 |
| ochosi | olbi: got a screenshot of it? | 08:52 |
| ochosi | madnick_: ok, we'll see. if we're not much worse than ubuntu, we should be fine (i'm sure they'll add support for it, we can just merge that in later) | 08:52 |
| madnick_ | ochosi: also, do you know the status of onboard in 12.10? | 08:53 |
| olbi | http://www.webupd8.org/2011/12/work-started-on-lightdm-kde-integration.html | 08:53 |
| madnick_ | Its what is used there by default, and thats also the best alternative i tried when making the old one | 08:53 |
| olbi | http://kdefamily.pl/index.php/aktualnoci/40-programy/293-lightdm-kde-010 | 08:54 |
| madnick_ | ocra screen reader aswell | 08:54 |
| ochosi | one sec, brb | 08:56 |
| ochosi | madnick_: i'd say for now let's stay on par with ubuntu, just modify it for our needs | 08:57 |
| madnick_ | yeah | 08:58 |
| madnick_ | ok, i will head off to bed, cya in 12 hours :) | 08:58 |
| ochosi | yup | 09:06 |
| ochosi | seeya | 09:06 |
| * astraljava needs to give the dailies some spins this weekend, the channel is suspiciously quiet about any bugs | 09:54 | |
| hobgoblin | I got one astraljava :) | 09:55 |
| astraljava | hobgoblin: Please do share, I'm writing the report to the release meeting. | 09:55 |
| hobgoblin | the daily I had yesterday doesn't work once it realises it's not on a cd but on a usb - there's a bug - I'll try and find it | 09:56 |
| astraljava | hobgoblin: Is this an alternate image? | 09:56 |
| hobgoblin | yea - there is no desktop daily | 09:56 |
| hobgoblin | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debian-installer/+bug/1010142 | 09:57 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1010142 in debian-installer (Ubuntu) "if it is started from usb, want to download files from cd" [Undecided,Confirmed] | 09:57 |
| astraljava | hobgoblin: Sure there is: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/daily-live/current/ | 09:57 |
| ochosi | madnick_: project is here: https://launchpad.net/xubuntu-greeter | 09:57 |
| hobgoblin | astraljava: when I went where you sent me yesterday there wasn't lol | 09:57 |
| hobgoblin | http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/daily/20120614/ | 09:58 |
| hobgoblin | :) | 09:58 |
| astraljava | hobgoblin: Strange, cause both the 13th and 14th have images in them. | 09:58 |
| astraljava | hobgoblin: Now you're looking at the alternate image directory. | 09:58 |
| hobgoblin | downloading now - will boot and install it fortwith | 09:58 |
| astraljava | hobgoblin: Please do notice the difference, live-cd is in daily-live/, alternate in daily/ | 09:59 |
| hobgoblin | I just went were you sent me - no problem | 09:59 |
| hobgoblin | aah cool - didn't know that - will remember - I hope | 09:59 |
| astraljava | I'm a little puzzled by this bug. I wonder how the stick was prepared, if with USB Creator, then it's invalid as that only works with live images. | 10:00 |
| astraljava | But nonetheless, it's not Xubuntu-specific, so I'll ignore it for now. Thanks for mentioning it anyway, hobgoblin! | 10:01 |
| hobgoblin | yep | 10:01 |
| hobgoblin | is there a check list somewhere to work against for checking the daily - or just the one I saw the other day? | 10:01 |
| hobgoblin | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/Testing/Short | 10:03 |
| astraljava | hobgoblin: That's updated to what we think is relevant, for now. It'll work for dailies just fine, but we need the Long for milestones, the next of which is Alpha-2 in a week and a half or so. | 10:04 |
| hobgoblin | ok | 10:04 |
| astraljava | Thanks for caring about the images! :) | 10:05 |
| hobgoblin | certainly for the time being I have got a lot of free time | 10:05 |
| astraljava | Hugely appreciated. | 10:05 |
| hobgoblin | I reported something yesterday for lightdm - arguing with sebastian bacher about it being a bug or not lol | 10:05 |
| hobgoblin | I do though see his point so will leave it now :) | 10:06 |
| hobgoblin | astraljava: I can't code or do webpages or the like - so I help with what I can do :) | 10:06 |
| astraljava | hobgoblin: Not (nearly) every contributor needs to, either. | 10:07 |
| hobgoblin | :) | 10:07 |
| hobgoblin | got my name on the documentation list as well - all helps I guess :) | 10:08 |
| astraljava | That's why I'm in the QA business as well. There's not much coding to be done for Xubuntu, and if there is, we've got a few wizards here already. :) | 10:08 |
| astraljava | Absolutely. | 10:08 |
| hobgoblin | I assume I'll be able to zsync the dailies - I can check them almost daily | 10:09 |
| hobgoblin | astraljava: ok - here goes - I WILL blame you if it goes horribly wrong - especially as I am really good at telling people to backup, but fail badly at listening to myself ... :) | 10:40 |
| hobgoblin | astraljava: couple of things failed | 11:34 |
| astraljava | hobgoblin: Ok, I have to run now, but please do share, I'll get to it in the backlog. | 12:13 |
| hobgoblin | k - I will - I've also got some comments - they can wait | 12:14 |
| hobgoblin | partitioner - something else - told me that resize would take some time - there was not resize going on and it didn't do one | 12:14 |
| hobgoblin | usb - mounted as far as dmesg was concerned - file manager didn't start nor have it there - in fact none of the drives I would expect to see in thunar were there | 12:15 |
| hobgoblin | there was graphic corruption during the liveusb screenshow and on the installed system - went when you moused over it http://i.imgur.com/Pr6OY.png | 12:16 |
| hobgoblin | other than that it was good | 12:17 |
| hobgoblin | when you're back and have time - perhaps a chat about the 'process' | 12:17 |
| ochosi | if any of you feel like checking out the new panel-style in greybird, it's in the bright-menus branch | 12:17 |
| hobgoblin | I would later if I knew where the bright menus branch was lol | 12:18 |
| ochosi | hobgoblin: you can either download the tarball here: https://github.com/shimmerproject/Greybird/tarball/bright-menus | 12:19 |
| ochosi | hobgoblin: or clone it with git from here: https://github.com/shimmerproject/Greybird/tree/bright-menus | 12:19 |
| hobgoblin | k - I'll have a look later on :) | 12:19 |
| ochosi | hobgoblin: sure, no rush | 12:22 |
