[09:20] <mpt_> ogra_, I'm in the cubist phase of my career
[09:20] <ogra_> lol
[09:41] <xnox> mpt_: when I said you should be inspired by Malevich's Black Square I didn't mean for you to take it literary =)
[09:43] <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>
[09:48] <xnox> mpt_: striking resemblance. =) should be sold to the Keith Lemon brand

[11:43] <mpt> cjwatson, for your consideration: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StartupSettings
[11:45] <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.
[11:47] <mpt> xnox, I have no idea. :-)
[11:52] <xnox> ok.
[14:21] <xnox> bug 83757

[14:21] <xnox> mpt: ^^^^ help me decide which bug to fix
[14:22] <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> =)))))))))))))))
[14:23] <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"
[14:24] <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.
[14:25] <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".
[14:26] <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.
[14:27]  * xnox goes back to read the bugs again.
[14:28] <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)
[14:29] <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
[14:31] <xnox> mpt: thanks a lot.
[14:32] <xnox> mpt: by the way I do love the 5.png screenshot =)
[14:58] <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
[18:05] <xnox> Hmmm.... cia broken?!
