czajkowskijibel: ping08:24
czajkowskijibel: can you reply when you're about, the team name ubuntu-qa actually belongs to a locoteam Qatar as does #ubunt-qa we pointed this out a while back to people but it wasn't changed and now the team is active they are requesting the names for them as all locoteams follow a strict naming and iso channel set up08:27
smartboyhwAh.......08:27
smartboyhwczajkowski, good info08:27
czajkowskiso this team cant be set up correctly which is having a knock on effect on other areas.08:28
jibelczajkowski, I think the irc channel #ubuntu-qa is freee, we moved everything to ubuntu-testing a while ago. I don't know if there was anything planned and what can be done for the ML. balloons can you help ? ^08:29
jibel*free08:29
czajkowskijibel: ok curretly that channel automaticaly redirects folks here08:30
czajkowskiwe would also need to rename your team https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-qa08:30
czajkowskiubuntu-testing or something08:30
czajkowskias again this is the iso code for the locoteam08:30
smartboyhwczajkowski, er balloons got a testing team already08:32
czajkowskiwell something will have to be changed :)08:32
jibelczajkowski, I understand. QA is also Quality Assurance :) That'll need some discussion. We can talk with balloons when he's up as he is now in charge of the QA community where these channels belong to.08:33
czajkowskijibel: ok just pked you as you're the owner on LP08:33
* smartboyhw thinks balloons has already done enough08:33
czajkowskibut would like to clear this up ASAP as the team cant set up other things till the LP part is also resolved.08:33
jibelczajkowski, sure, no problem, thanks for bringing this up.08:33
smartboyhwczajkowski, er actually balloons want to trash the LP ubutnu-qa team I think:P08:34

silverarrowhi18:11
phillwhi silverarrow I keep missing you! only the PPC server edition got a Beta2 release, we were still chasing the graphic chip issues that affected both nVidea (one bug) and Radeon (totally different bug)....18:24
silverarrowdo you know if ubuntu should have a side panel in live cd?18:25
silverarrowi am in yesterdays daily18:26
phillwas they manifested them selves similarly, it has taken some time to work out what is wrong. The nVidea one should be sorted, I'm just awaiting a final decision as to where to chase the other issue up.18:26
phillwsilverarrow: I have not tested Ubuntu this cycle.18:26
silverarrowI used the suggestion in the mail, seem to work18:26
silverarrowlive video=radeonfb:1024x768-32@6018:27
silverarrowand coherent destop !!18:27
phillwsilverarrow: if you ask on #ubuntu+1 they sould be able to answer the question about side panel... be polite and be patient on that area (I know you always are :) )18:27
phillwballoons: are you about today at all, or is it (m)eating all day? :)18:29
balloonsphillw, meating :-)18:31
balloonsbut not all day18:31
balloonsthere is hackery as well18:31
phillwgive me a ping if you get free :)18:31

balloonsphillw, ping19:33
phillwballoons: I need permission to edit / re-write sections of the ppc server... some of the tests are wrong and some are N/A19:35
balloonsahh..19:36
balloonswell, we keep version history, so rollback is easy :-)19:37
phillwI have enough time with the sole server-ppc tester (one of the lubuntu dev type people) to get this done. Question is, will server-ppc be accepted if the tests it is asked to perform be okay?19:37
balloonsthere was discussion just the other day about server ppc19:37
balloonsI am not remembering it persay sadly19:37
balloonshowever, what do you mean accepted?19:37
phillwfor example... "Check if you have an Intel i386 or AMD64 chipset"19:37
balloonsas in a build published? It won' t be a a supported build, but you know that :-)19:38
phillwballoons: it was just as beta2 was heading out and Kate accepted that as ppc issues were graphical and the server would install it would pass.19:38
phillwbut Kate does want a full set of 'passed'. It was then I was told some of tests are factually incorrect19:39
phillwballoons: so there is no point testing and approving server-ppc?19:40
balloonsphillw, no it's important to get the tests correct19:49
balloonselse the release team won't let it go19:49
balloonsI just wondered what you meant by 'accepted'19:49
phillwballoons: Check if you have an Intel i386 or AMD64 chipset will always fail.19:50
balloonsyes, if you change the tests, just make sure you can pass them19:50
balloonsthat's the goal.. good tests, that make sense, and you need to meet to ship an image19:50
balloonsobviously they need work19:50
balloons:-019:50
phillwI'll pull them onto the sandbox, and go through them on a VM.19:51
phillwthe guy who pointed it out is busy Mon - Thur, he used to grab an hour out on Wednesday for the Lubuntu weekly meeting. So, if I can get all the ducks in a row for server-ppc, it will be okay?19:53
phillwballoons: btw, how long do we get for RC? both in theory (which has failed every time) and in practice for the RC?19:54
balloonsI don't see why not. I can help you make sure the testcases are updated if needed and are all properly marked19:54
balloonsbut you should have the power to do all of that :-)19:54
balloonswe technically only have a final rc19:55
phillwthe person approving them is a sys admin for a large company... if he passes them.. they're good to go :D19:55
balloonsI don't know if they will decided to do anything between now and then19:55
balloonsas far as deadlines for testing19:55
balloonsso I would say you'll have the usual week.. but even more if you start early :-)19:56
phillwballoons: that was not quite what I meant... the release candidates for milestones were 'supposed' to come out on Fridays, that would allow people the weekend to test.19:56
phillwwe have not had that.19:56
balloonsohh19:56
balloonsheh19:56
balloonsyea, not a good thing19:56
balloonsi dont' see that happeneing anymore this cycle19:57
phillwballoons: and on the good news side, PPC seems to be settling down. I just need to ask Adam if he would pull together the various bits and pieces so I can go ask #ubuntu-x about getting a fix into the regression that occured.20:00
phillwballoons: poke22:49
