snap-lczajkowski: There's an active moderator community on identi.ca00:48
snap-lEven if there's just a "link to this group" opt-in, that would be cool00:49
snap-lI'd rather have the option to have it rather than have everything be twitter only.00:49
snap-lI understand identi.ca is a ghost-town, filled with radical FOSS folks, but it has other folks on there too00:51
snap-lAnd not everyone needs to figure out how OSS your breakfast is.00:51
snap-l;)00:51
dholbachgood morning07:50
dholbachdpm, how did it go? :)08:52
AlanBellsnap-l: nope, the problem is the LTP implementation08:53
dpmhey dholbach, very well, it was a lot of fun, and people told me they enjoyed it, so mission accomplished ;)08:53
dholbach:-D08:54
dpmI recorded it too, so I'll upload the mix this evening or tomorrow08:54
dholbachawesome08:54
AlanBellit fills up with some of the most recent tweets this week, then gets identi.ca results from three years ago and those identi.ca results push the tweets out08:54
dholbachdpm, james_w: we might need to set up #ubuntu-DJs at some stage ;-)08:54
dpm:)08:55
czajkowskiAlanBell: exactly08:56
AlanBellsnap-l: we have identic.ca stuff from 813 days ago pushing out tweets from today http://people.ubuntu.com/~alanbell/Screenshot%20from%202012-11-13%2008:56:28.png08:57
philipballewDo people even use identic.ca anymore?08:58
philipballewca uses it to push some tweets still as well08:58
AlanBelldunno, I have no objection to having it there as an option, if a new dent turns up then sure, bung it in the stream with the tweets08:58
AlanBellbut it just has to go away when it isn't news any more08:59
czajkowskiindeed09:00
czajkowskiand it doesn't/wont09:00
czajkowski:s09:00
philipballewhttps://new.myspace.com/09:01
AlanBellI seem to recall the most recent couple of dents about #ubuntu-uk are rants from fabsh09:01
philipballew^ might be out new outlet :)09:01
AlanBellwhich is fine, people are allowed to rant, I just don't want to stick that rant to our team page for three years until someone else uses identi.ca09:02
philipballewJust whatever is most productive to reach people probably09:03
philipballewczajkowski, that loco member has not been able to "find time" to get his question on lp. So it may show up in your que sooner or later, but it is not there now.09:07
czajkowskiphilipballew: no worries09:08
philipballewnp, just wanted to relay information for informations sake.09:08
czajkowskiI've seen something similar hapen with othes, could be the openid which is a sso on isue, or it could be a merged account, either way will get it loked at09:08
czajkowskino worries I've a full list on my plate to deal with today plus meetings :)09:08
philipballewWe all have too much going on!09:09
philipballewI feel I would fit in better in Europe. I mean, I already am awake when you guys are.09:17
czajkowskiphilipballew: come study in EU09:21
czajkowskiit's what my mates did , one even transfered over her complete degree masters and now phd to ireland09:21
philipballewczajkowski, I have been considering a "semester in London"09:21
czajkowskiit was cheaper to pay fees and flights and accomodation in .ie than do her degree in boston09:21
czajkowskiphilipballew: bah not london go to .IE09:22
philipballewWhere are they located czajkowski ?09:22
czajkowskiphilipballew: well my uni University of Limerick it has a QCA just like GPa so we get thousands of yanks every year09:23
czajkowskithey take a credit here nad there like music or irish folklore to bring up their gpa09:23
philipballewMy best friend just got back from spending a semester in Dublin09:23
czajkowskithere is also Dublin and there are many unis there09:23
philipballewYes, I think there09:23
czajkowskibut dublin is more expensive to live in09:23
philipballewThat's what I herd09:24

Tm_TI recall we were discussing at UDS about the press slanting Canonical to anything they could, well, https://plus.google.com/u/0/103194375206590302731/posts/HPgnv5gBEyY12:47
czajkowskiTm_T: it's a google plus page with the add on it?12:50
czajkowskior am I missing something ?12:51
Tm_TI was referring to the post12:52
czajkowskiright...12:53
Tm_Tczajkowski: just interesting to notice that neither the video posting in youtube or uploader's profile there mention canonical at all, yet news site have to have it in the headline (:12:55
czajkowskiahhh12:56
czajkowskiwas wondering what you were refercing12:56
czajkowski*referencing12:56
snap-lre: identi.ca: I'm fine with an expiration for dents. Probably would make sense for Twitter as well12:56
snap-lie: Something over 50 days is probably not relevant any more12:56
snap-lso don't display it12:57
snap-lI agree: we have some spam dents that seem to show up no matter what from 237 days ago.12:58

akgranerballoons, has anyone else had any nvidia dual monitor issues on the 12.10  - I just had to remove an old config file due to an update to get things to work - was wondering if you saw any of that with any of your manual testing14:07
akgranerit actually took Pete helping me to fix the issue is was so broken14:08
balloonsakgraner, I swapped out my dual monitors last cycle, so sadly I can't re-create the issue anymore14:16
balloonshowever, I did hear of people really enjoying the "experimental" driver14:16
balloonsI've had to wipe configs in the past between driver upgrades -- did you have to do something more than that?14:17
akgraneryeah - Pete grabbed the logs - would you like me to send them to you so you can see what all we had to do?14:26
cjohnstonballoons: I had the same type of issue and I think we talked about it14:29
balloonscjohnston, ohh right, I do remember you talking about that14:30

dakerjcastro_: any idea about the future of cloud.u.c ?15:14
jcastro_it just forwards to ubuntu.com/cloud afaict15:16
dakeri still get bug report about cloud.u.c/ami/15:16
dakerreports*15:16
jcastro_People are still using that15:39
jcastro_afaict it's the only thing on cloud.u.c that people use15:39
jcastro_probably people asking about new AMIs for the new .AU zone in AWS?15:39
dakeryes15:41
dakerjcastro_: but if cloud.u.c is dead, why not add the ami locator to u.c/cloud/ami15:42
jcastro_that is a good idea15:43
jcastro_can you file an RT on it and I can ask?15:44
jcastro_oh, but we do need to keep the URL alive with like a redirect or something15:44
dakeryes15:45
dakerif you it's going to be moved to u.c/cloud/ami we need to talk to someone from the webteam, right ?15:46

knomewhat's the status of steam for all uds participants?22:23
dakeri want to know too22:27
JanCif I understood correctly, the current Valve Steam beta only applies to people who run Ubuntu 12.10 with the nvidia closed source driver?22:31
knomethat's not the point22:32
JanCknome: so, what is the point?  (I wasn't at UDS, so don't know if they promised anything...)22:33
knomeJanC, they promised a beta account for everybody attending uds22:34
JanChm22:34
knomei don't care if it isn't supposed to work on my machine or not, i want the account.22:34
JanCmaybe they will fopr the next beta round?22:34
knomei've no idea22:35
JanCfrom what I've read, you can use it anyway, just not (officially) report bugs22:36
bkerensaJanC: incorrect... I have neither a Nvidia nor ATI card... just a intel video card and it runs fine23:00
bkerensaknome: supposedly they are doing it in waves... First people got invites the first day but they have been adding people23:01
JanCbkerensa: you got an invite for their beta test?23:15
bkerensaJanC: sure did23:16
JanCeh, weird23:16
JanCjust a couple of days ago somebody told me that were the conditions for the first round of beta tests23:17
bkerensaJanC: So my invite was due to me writing for OMG... me and Joey both got invited directly by the Valve through the Ubuntu Desktop Team23:17
bkerensaI got mine roughly two days after the first UDS wave23:17
JanCbkerensa: well, it was claimed that they didn't want bug reports outside the data set I mentioned earlier23:18
bkerensaJanC: huh yeah... I know people on other distros got invited23:19
bkerensalike their are people using Arch playing with invite23:20
bkerensa:s23:20
JanCbut I'm not part of anything, just trying to get answer to questions I get from people in other channels...23:20
JanCbkerensa: I heard several people lied23:21
bkerensaJanC: Im sure hundreds did23:21
bkerensa:)23:21
JanCand of course, you know very well that the download location has been public knowledge for some time...23:22
bkerensaJanC: indeed thats how the Arch porting started23:22
bkerensa:)23:22
bkerensasadly TF2 on Steam uses nearly all my memory and since its a 32 bit binary Steam is unable to use my full memory available23:23
JanCto me, the "Arch port" didn't seem legal, but that's another story, I suppose?23:23
