| smartboyhw | Hi | 12:45 |
|---|---|---|
| smartboyhw | phillw, you here? | 12:46 |
| smartboyhw | Someone write testimoinials for me and +1s in the Ubuntu Forums membership part, I want to apply for Membership...http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2038322 | 13:27 |
| balloons | phillw, ping | 14:52 |
| smartboyhw | Yeah, balloons, you're here! | 14:52 |
| smartboyhw | balloons: I'm working on a draft for UEFI, Want to see? | 14:54 |
| balloons | smartboyhw, sure | 14:55 |
| smartboyhw | Wait, putting it in Skydrive. | 14:56 |
| smartboyhw | balloons: http://sdrv.ms/ROS6Cz | 15:00 |
| smartboyhw | balloons: Got that? | 15:02 |
| balloons | smartboyhw, yep | 15:06 |
| balloons | did you go through this yourself? | 15:07 |
| smartboyhw | No, I asked phillw to do so. | 15:07 |
| phillw | hi smartboyhw balloons, | 15:11 |
| * smartboyhw waves at phillw and balloons. | 15:11 | |
| phillw | balloons: I did email you - was awaiting you to come reply. | 15:11 |
| balloons | phillw, hey | 15:12 |
| balloons | yes.. I think I sent one back | 15:12 |
| smartboyhw | Anyone read my e-mail to add two things to the agenda? | 15:12 |
| phillw | okies. I'm just back from shopping :) | 15:12 |
| balloons | I was pinging you on the dvd overwriting issue | 15:12 |
| balloons | remember that bug from last week? | 15:12 |
| smartboyhw | How's your vacation? | 15:12 |
| balloons | with wubi? | 15:12 |
| smartboyhw | Wubi? | 15:12 |
| smartboyhw | WHich one? | 15:12 |
| phillw | There has been some falling out with one of them. I await the dust to settle... | 15:13 |
| balloons | phillw, ahh ok. Well I did confirm wubi cannot write to a cd or dvd | 15:13 |
| phillw | we always fight like cat & dog, but this time it got a more serious :/ | 15:13 |
| balloons | it doesn't contain code to do so | 15:13 |
| phillw | balloons: thanks, in that case I'm not sure what it happening - as Jason did replicate it. | 15:14 |
| balloons | phillw, did he? | 15:14 |
| balloons | smartboyhw, bug not reported | 15:14 |
| phillw | yes, he did while you were in IRC with him. | 15:15 |
| smartboyhw | I need to go. Bye! | 15:16 |
| balloons | phillw, right right | 15:16 |
| balloons | i can only assume user error | 15:17 |
| balloons | the problem he is describing is impossible according to the dev | 15:17 |
| balloons | which confirms my thoughts.. | 15:17 |
| phillw | hmm, well. When the dust settles (hopefully in next couple of days) I will bring the matter back up with him. | 15:18 |
| phillw | balloons: okies, I'll go through that test case with Ho Wan. | 15:19 |
| balloons | phillw, yes | 15:19 |
| balloons | I continnue to be currious | 15:19 |
| balloons | heh | 15:19 |
| phillw | I don't have a copy of vista, so I cannot install it onto my other hard drive and try myself. | 15:20 |
| balloons | phillw, yes if you wouldn't mind helping him that would be good.. something in the proper format could be usefull to add | 15:20 |
| balloons | right, same | 15:20 |
| phillw | TBH I'm very suprised at Derrick still running Vista! It is releases what ME was ... best quietly forgotten :P | 15:21 |
| phillw | I spent months putting XP back on computers that came shipped with Vista ;) | 15:21 |
| phillw | I couldn't on my own laptop as there were no XP drivers for it :( It is now my sister's laptop with lubuntu on it & flies like the devil! | 15:23 |
| balloons | hehe | 15:25 |
| balloons | yes, seems more people are hearing about lubuntu | 15:25 |
| phillw | for any basic XP or Vista computer it is a good one to at least try. If they like their candy (and some do), then they can try one of the members of our family. Having a choice is brilliant :) | 15:26 |
| phillw | balloons: as you get chance, can you onto an email your thoughts of iso's being archived as you mentioned. I estimate that at 6 milestones / flavour / arch it is actually not an inconsiderable amount of work! | 15:30 |
| balloons | phillw, http://www.reddit.com/r/Ubuntu/comments/xp3q5/stepmothers_emachines_t3120_revived_with_lubuntu/ | 15:31 |
| balloons | phillw, well, do you archive the dailys or milestones right now for lubuntu images? | 15:31 |
| balloons | do you have the alpha 1 from this cycle? | 15:32 |
| balloons | from last cycle? | 15:32 |
| phillw | when I was actively testing, I did keep them on my local machine. But it was only at the close of 12.04 did I switch over to the new server. The previous hosting company unilaterally deleted all my archives of lubuntu - I was not pleased, but there was little I could do, it was in the fine print somewhere. | 15:34 |
| phillw | nice posting. I'm sure I saw something aboyt nVidia going to liase with lunix for drivers? | 15:35 |
| phillw | I'm guestimating about 250 - 300 GB of disk space per cycle if I archive 6 milestones across each flavour / arch. | 15:37 |
| phillw | maybe one of the admins from cd.image could tell me what is on each milestone as per the iso.tracker so I have a better idea? | 15:38 |
| balloons | phillw, yes I'm guessing we could get the numbers | 15:46 |
| phillw | balloons: I've just sent off a support ticket to find the cost of a 2TB usb drive to be added, as it is archiving and hopefully infrequently accessed a usbV2 drive should be fast enough for us. | 15:52 |
| phillw | YAY!!! GB have just got another Gold medal in Equestrian event :D | 15:52 |
| phillw | oops, sorry... I'm also wathich the Olympics :) | 15:53 |
| phillw | 1st Gold in 60 years at show-jumping :) | 15:53 |
| phillw | I can have 2 of them, to back up my exisiting 2TB internal drive. I don't think I need the 2nd one yet, I still have over 700 GB in the 'pool' that can be allocated as and where needed. | 15:57 |
| balloons | phillw, :-) | 16:35 |
| balloons | one more week to go | 16:35 |
| phillw | ?? | 16:37 |
| balloons | phillw, the olympics | 16:39 |
| balloons | i was sidebarring with you | 16:39 |
| balloons | haha | 16:39 |
| balloons | on the iso thing, yea, it would be potentially a lot of bandwidth | 16:39 |
| balloons | for images, well, let's take a look | 16:39 |
| balloons | if we wanted to store say every flavor image(s) for every milestone for the entire development cycle? | 16:40 |
| phillw | provided you suddenly did have 100 people grab the alpha 1 of kubuntu after the beta 1 of kubuntu, bandwidth is not a real issue, we have 10 Tb / month as an allowance. I've peaked at 1.5 Tb for the month after 12.04 Lubuntu was released. We're only a secondary server. | 16:42 |
| phillw | *you did not suddenly have* | 16:42 |
| balloons | ok, so something 8 Gig per milestone for ubuntu | 16:50 |
| balloons | that was a really fast guess | 16:50 |
| balloons | 50 G out to cover all the milestones then | 16:51 |
| balloons | that simply for ubuntu of course.. Then you have the other flavors, none of which have that many images | 16:51 |
| balloons | I think your 200 G estimate is about right | 16:51 |
| phillw | balloons: my maths is not that bad - honest :P | 17:13 |
| balloons | phillw, hah | 17:14 |
| phillw | I did have a look at the releases & iso sizes before doing my guestimate :) | 17:14 |
| balloons | I knew you had it figured out | 17:14 |
| phillw | balloons: It is important, that is why I asked for a 2nd opinion. Having a decimal point in the wrong place would have been somewhat embarressing! | 17:15 |
| balloons | ask nasa about that one | 17:15 |
| phillw | or the French, when a +1 was a -1 and crashed an Arien Rocket :P | 17:15 |
| phillw | but, on NASA, they got the rover safely down.... Fantastic news! | 17:16 |
