smartboyhw | ailo-w: Is there a package like ubuntustudio-full that installs ALL Ubuntu Studio packages when upgrading from Ubuntu desktop? | 13:26 |
---|---|---|
ailo-w | smartboyhw: I don't believe so | 13:27 |
smartboyhw | Ow man | 13:27 |
ailo-w | Raining elephants and giraffes. I don't have an umbrella. This will get ugly | 13:30 |
scott-work | smartboyhw: i have mentioned before that i think we should consider including this functionality in -controls possibly, although i believe installing ubuntustudio-desktop might accomlish this as well | 13:30 |
smartboyhw | OH scott-work hi | 13:30 |
smartboyhw | Well alright:) | 13:31 |
micahg | scott-work: I don't believe that currently works in quantal (install desktop pulls in all tasks), a new metapackage could be added to the ubuntustudio-meta to accomplish this, kubuntu used to have a kubuntu-full, idk if they still do | 13:34 |
smartboyhw | That's why I have that idea from Kubuntu:) | 13:35 |
ailo-w | ooh, my backside is going to get wet bicycling in this weather. Going home now | 13:46 |
scott-work | micahg: thanks for pointing that out | 14:15 |
holstein | i like the idea of a seperate one... i used to install the *-desktop one to get the look and feel, but not all the packages | 14:21 |
smartboyhw | Oh/ | 14:21 |
holstein | im also fine with *-desktop being the whole distro if you guys think that is more clear and easier | 14:21 |
ailo | I'd rather have a new meta for that | 14:22 |
ailo | The desktop is after all just one piece of the puzzle | 14:23 |
smartboyhw | Me too. A new meta | 14:23 |
holstein | ubuntustudio-full makes sense | 14:23 |
Hypnotoad | If I'm following, lubuntu has lubuntu-desktop and lubuntu-core | 14:25 |
holstein | Hypnotoad: lubuntu-core is the equivalent of *-full ? | 14:28 |
micahg | !info lubuntu-core | 14:28 |
ubottu | lubuntu-core (source: lubuntu-meta): Lubuntu Desktop environment - minimal installation. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.38 (precise), package size 3 kB, installed size 30 kB (Only available for i386; amd64; powerpc; ia64; sparc; lpia; armel; armhf) | 14:28 |
holstein | ah.. so its a "tiny" lubuntu version | 14:30 |
holstein | those guys work hard! | 14:30 |
smartboyhw | :) | 14:31 |
scott-work | i think lubuntu has a clear vision of what they want to accomplish with actionable goals. that helps alot | 14:31 |
holstein | yup.. it stays light too | 14:32 |
ailo | cd .. | 14:42 |
ailo | hmm | 14:42 |
smartboyhw | .. | 14:42 |
smartboyhw | ailo: Good email on the package building thing:) | 14:49 |
ailo | holstein: We don't have any thelonius type of reminder on out channels, right? | 14:50 |
ailo | smartboyhw: I think so too. The simpler, the better | 14:51 |
holstein | ailo: not that im aware of | 14:52 |
ailo | I'm running 25 times around a lawn today | 14:53 |
ailo | Just wish it'd stop raining | 14:53 |
smartboyhw | lol | 14:53 |
micahg | who's the docs person for Ubuntu Studio? | 15:58 |
holstein | smartboy has been helping a lot with that micahg | 15:58 |
micahg | and he's not around | 15:59 |
holstein | micahg: i'll try and get something where it needs to go.. an email to the dev list or whatever | 16:00 |
micahg | well, I'm wondering if changes in xfce4-places-plugin will affect the US docs | 16:01 |
holstein | micahg: i think we should be looking at the xfce docs in general more closely | 16:01 |
holstein | taking what we can from there, and contributing as well | 16:02 |
ailo | I'm the documentation leaqd | 17:17 |
ailo | lead* | 17:17 |
ailo | micahg: ^ | 17:17 |
ailo | docs on the ISO? | 17:18 |
holstein | ailo: you know about the xfce4-places-plugin ? | 17:19 |
holstein | i dont really use XFCE that often | 17:19 |
holstein | i just test our live iso's | 17:19 |
ailo | Me neither | 17:19 |
ailo | I also have no idea about ISO docs | 17:19 |
ailo | I've only been working on docs on the wikis, and the web site | 17:20 |
holstein | in theory, we should be able to help xubuntu, and just copy that stuff... a lot of it | 17:20 |
ailo | We could inherit it, and add our own on top | 17:20 |
micahg | that would be my suggestion | 17:21 |
holstein | im sure the xubuntu folk would apprectiate that too | 17:21 |
ailo | To my knowledge, there isn't really any Ubuntu Studio docs on the ISO atm | 17:21 |
holstein | thats a great team as well | 17:21 |
ailo | I'll look into that | 17:21 |
holstein | ailo: wow... how did you get that from what asker said earlier?... thats why i pinged you though.. i figured you would know | 17:35 |
ailo | He said, controlling volume with the keyboard. I tried it, and saw this image | 17:36 |
ailo | Don't usually use the keyboard myself to do that | 17:36 |
ailo | len-dt: Did you add the menu item "Ubuntu Studio Information"? | 18:30 |
ailo | Hadn't had the chance to look at his yet | 18:31 |
ailo | The IRC client is working pretty well | 18:31 |
ailo | No pulseaudio applet? | 18:35 |
ailo | len-dt: I'm wondering if we should add a popup informing the user that an IRC client is opening, and connecting to the Ubuntu Studio user channel with the user name, and asking if that's ok or not | 18:45 |
ailo | We could add a simple python/GTK script for this | 18:45 |
ailo | I started something on that. bb tomorrow | 18:59 |
len-dt | ailo, there is a ubuntustudio submenu. It has 4 or 5 web pages as well as our IRC opening in xchat and the xfce4-about. | 20:52 |
len-dt | ailo, there is a ubuntustudio submenu. It has 4 or 5 web pages as well as our IRC opening in xchat and the xfce4-about. | 20:54 |
len-dt | Oops, I hit an up key instead of enter. | 20:54 |
len-dt | The web pages are a forum page, the wiki help page, the two list pages and the home page. | 20:55 |
len-dt | There is no local stuff on there yet though it would be easy to add. I don't know what xubuntu has for help. The last time I looked it seemed to point to the change logs for the programs listed... not very helpful. (the last version of xubuntu I had was 11.10 this may have changed) | 20:57 |
ailo | len-dt: I think it's great with all the links. But my initial feeling opening the IRC link was that the user should perhaps be warned about the automatic connection, before proceeding | 20:58 |
len-dt | I do know back when I was using KDE, their browser would take man:// kinds of urls. I don't know if there are other browsers that do so | 20:58 |
len-dt | How if IRC different than a browser in that? | 20:59 |
ailo | How is connecting with your ip and local username to a network you might not have any clue about different to opening a web page? | 20:59 |
len-dt | Not that it matters to me, if you come up with a wrapper script I can point the desktop file at, I am fine with that too. | 20:59 |
ailo | I would prefer that, as a user. It's not a big thing to add anyway | 21:00 |
ailo | I already started working on it | 21:00 |
len-dt | Ok, The command line for your script is at http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntustudio-dev/ubuntustudio-default-settings/UbuntuStudio/view/head:/usr/share/ubuntustudio/applications/ubuntustudio-xchat.desktop | 21:01 |
len-dt | line 18 or so. | 21:02 |
ailo | Thanks | 21:02 |
len-dt | In your blurb, something about leaving a question and the app open long enough for someone to actually see it might be nice :-) | 21:03 |
ailo | It will be a gui window with info and the customary ok and cancel buttons | 21:04 |
len-dt | Ya, figured as much. Python then? | 21:05 |
ailo | Yea | 21:05 |
len-dt | \o/ Our new metas just got accepted. Tomorrow we should have photography and publishing apps.... and a bigger ISO | 21:06 |
knome | hehe | 21:06 |
len-dt | I think I will wait to do testing till then. | 21:07 |
