xnox | mpt_: when I said you should be inspired by Malevich's Black Square I didn't mean for you to take it literary =) | 09:41 |
mpt_ | xnox, I was aiming more for Mondrian <images.google.com/search?tbm=isch&q=mondrian>, which was previously the inspiration for the layout of packagekit-gnome. <images.google.com/search?tbm=isch&q=packagekit-gnome> | 09:43 |
xnox | mpt_: striking resemblance. =) should be sold to the Keith Lemon brand | 09:48 |

mpt | cjwatson, for your consideration: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StartupSettings | 11:43 |
xnox | mpt: what don't have symbolic pencil icon, only the two-cog. Or is there a symbolic one in gtk theme? Can I request one? | 11:45 |
xnox | mpt: looks very good though. | 11:45 |
mpt | xnox, I have no idea. :-) | 11:47 |
xnox | ok. | 11:52 |
xnox | bug 83757 | 14:21 |

xnox | mpt: ^^^^ help me decide which bug to fix | 14:21 |
ogra_ | the latter is easier, just fix the testcase docs :) | 14:22 |
mpt | "Firefox is already running, but is not responding." | 14:22 |
xnox | mpt: ok. I'll do that then. Warning dialog or window? | 14:22 |
xnox | =))))))))))))))) | 14:22 |
xnox | mpt: on one hand we want users to make a decision & no accidently click through "erase all of my data" by accident (touchpad, laptop, double click from previous page). | 14:23 |
xnox | on the other hand it should be "easy to install" | 14:23 |
mpt | xnox, I'm going to let you in on a little secret | 14:24 |
mpt | xnox, when a bug report has "should" in its title, that usually means the reporter has assumed a particular solution to a problem. | 14:24 |
mpt | But if you're lucky, the problem will be clear too, and you might see how it can be solved in a different way, or even has already been solved in a different way. | 14:25 |
mpt | In this case, the problem is that there's no confirmation step after choosing "Install Ubuntu alongside". | 14:25 |
mpt | But that problem was fixed a couple of years after the bug was reported: see <http://people.canonical.com/~evand/screenshots/ubiquity/12.04/4.png> and <http://people.canonical.com/~evand/screenshots/ubiquity/12.04/5.png>. | 14:26 |
xnox | there was a third bug as well "missing confirmation on format & install" (which it doesn't | 14:26 |
mpt | There is now another step between choosing installation alongside, and the installation actually starting. | 14:26 |
mpt | So, that bug is either fixed or invalid, take your pick. | 14:26 |
* xnox goes back to read the bugs again. | 14:27 | |
mpt | There's a case to be made that there should be *another* confirmation step, and yes I think there is another bug report about that, but you don't need to deal with that to close that particular bug report. | 14:28 |
xnox | mpt: the top radio button should always be ticked, because it's either the one that has confirmation after it (e.g. dual boot) | 14:28 |
xnox | mpt: or it will be format&install, and if format&install is the top choise it mean that there is no other operating systems/data present (clean system) and there is no harm done. | 14:29 |
mpt | xnox, so yes, default to the first radio button checked | 14:29 |
xnox | mpt: thanks a lot. | 14:31 |
xnox | mpt: by the way I do love the 5.png screenshot =) | 14:32 |
mpt | xnox, oh yeah, if you could fix that, that would be swell. :-) | 14:58 |
mpt | It's a horror that nobody reported that in all the 12.04 testing | 14:58 |
xnox | Hmmm.... cia broken?! | 18:05 |
