[17:46] Maaz: topic Administrativia and Announcements [17:46] Current Topic: Administrativia and Announcements [17:46] I think the most important announcement is tomorrows LoCo Re-Approval meeting [17:47] but I added it as an item under events [17:47] Where and when is the meeting taking place? [17:47] so we might keep it off until then [17:47] okay [17:48] trying to find the exact channel quick [17:49] we meet here around 19.30 and join there before 20.00 [17:50] when, tomorrow?

I have put us on the agenda." [17:50] Yes 22:00 [17:50] sorry for being late [17:50] welcome inetpro [17:51] again [17:51] quoted maiatoday there [17:51] wb inetpro [17:51] My cut and paste us slow I am on the tablet [17:51] ty superfly [17:51] who's running the mailing list? [17:51] or has access to the info [17:51] peeps can take an early nap and come back for the meeting [17:52] that I don't know, and we need some of that numbers for the stats [17:52] I will work on the wiki page tomorrow morning some more [17:52] I will add the photos I collected [17:53] maiatoday: I took a look at the wiki page and I think it looks good, thanks! [17:53] The only section bugging me is the stats section, it's kind of repeating the online activities section, not? [17:53] It needs a few touch ups and then I think it should be ok [17:53] nuvolari: as far as I am aware drubin_ still has access to the mailing list details [17:54] We had a stats section last time but we are missing something stats [17:54] inetpro: thanks, I'll mail him to find out about that [17:54] Last time we had graphs of irc activity [17:55] Maaz: agreed nuvolari to find out about mailing list stats from drubin_ [17:55] Agreed: nuvolari to find out about mailing list stats from drubin_ [17:55] If we don't have useful stats by tomorrow we could take that section out [17:55] maiatoday: we tried getting some irc stats [17:55] Ok [17:56] sadly the page which gave stats last time around stopped doing it some time I think in 2010 or 2011 [17:56] meh :-/ [17:56] I don't think it's that serious if we don't have stats [17:56] should someone be tasked with running a bot that collects stats? [17:56] yeah, they can take our word for it :P we were quite active this year [17:57] superfly and myself tried something but it ended up not being so simple as expected [17:57] I think the most important one is the number of active members in the community [17:57] problem is to find the time [17:57] If the wiki page is pretty decent and a fair amount of us go to the meeting we should be ok [17:57] I have something that is workable (And I'm working on at the moment) [17:57] Also once I add the slide show it will help too [17:57] ooh :> slides [17:57] it is not 100% accurate, but it should be good enough to give people a feel for how active the channel is on average [17:58] That's fine [17:58] superfly: good news! [17:58] okay ? [17:58] thank you superfly, greatly appreciated! [17:58] thanks for your efforts [17:58] Just a [17:58] a [17:58] a? [17:58] a!

[18:05] ok right, we can do that [18:06] superfly: we where discussing having just a plain static site [18:06] inetpro: your decision [18:06] were* [18:06] so the meeting has to decide whether we keep things as is or whether we simplify it [18:07] Kilos: thanks I'll not disturb your meeting [18:07] not a lot of things that are changing on the website at the moment [18:07] you may join in smile just give your name to maaz [18:08] Maaz: I am smile [18:08] smile: Righto [18:08] Maaz: smile [18:08] smile: smile is showing you some love [18:08] anyone is welcome to share their point of view [18:08] no man true name [18:08] Maaz: geoffrey [18:08] smile: Huh? [18:08] :o [18:08] I don't get it :| [18:08] lol [18:09] I am Name [18:09] Maaz: I am Geoffrey [18:09] smile: Okay [18:09] jaay :) [18:09] whew '< [18:09] sorry for the "flood" [18:09] I don't have any comments on the website [18:09] I do have some :) [18:09] what website are we discussing? link? [18:09] anyone want to add something? [18:09] static is always faster :) [18:09] I think to simplify it would help ya [18:09] http://ubuntu-za.org/ [18:09] but more difficult to edit :| [18:09] what is the benefit of static inetpro? [18:09] aah, of course [18:09] but it's good as is, not? [18:10] superfly: you are hosting? [18:10] yeah, some design tweaks maybe :) [18:10] I had an idea for the website [18:11] mazal: an idea? [18:11] How about a little "bio" area where members can just give their short history of how they started with ubuntu and their experiences etc [18:11] mazal: we can have that on the ubuntu wiki [18:12] mazal: the problem with the web site is that no one has the time to maintain it. [18:12] inetpro: no, CLUG hosts it [18:12] ahh [18:12] * inetpro remembers now [18:12] superfly maybe a team to do it? [18:12] or group [18:12] magespawn: doesn't work, already did that [18:12] i can do basic stuff [18:12] superfly: what is CLUG? :) [18:12] a hosting company? [18:12] oh okay [18:12] Maaz: google for CLUG [18:13] superfly: "Urban Dictionary: clug" http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=clug :: "Clug" http://wiki.clug.org.za/wiki/Main_Page :: "CLUG | All Linux, All the Time" http://www.clug.org/ :: "Edward Clug - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_Clug :: "Welcome to Canberra Linux Users Group" http://clug.org.au/ :: "CLUG Home | [18:13] Canberra LEGO® User Group - Adult LEGO Fans ..." http://www.clug.com.au/ :: "Clemson Linux… [18:13] lol [18:13] the second one smile [18:13] * inetpro love Lego [18:13] loves* [18:13] okay, cool! :) [18:14] I would start a lego user group but got too many things on my plate as it is [18:14] superfly as long as the changes are not too hectic i should be able to manage it [18:14] Can we agree that this will be discussed in more detail? [18:14] superfly in drupal? [18:14] magespawn: yes [18:14] would be a good learning curve [18:15] *IF* we continue with Drupal, we will also need to upgrade to D7 [18:16] but we need more than just one person [18:16] ahh well i am fairly easy [18:16] ok, we might need to move on if we wish to cover everything in time. We can add this to the following meeting's agenda too? [18:16] I have some experience with PHP [18:16] I may lend a hand when i have time [18:17] ok superfly, do we agree to keep as is and try get more people involved? [18:17] +1 [18:17] then we discuss again at next meeting? [18:17] +1 [18:17] we can do that [18:18] I'd like us to look at the purpose of the web site [18:18] +1 [18:18] Cantide: learn some Python [18:18] * Cantide dies [18:18] Cantide: leave PHP for the script kiddies and the wannabes [18:18] hehe [18:18] nuvolari: next topic? [18:18] Pythons are dangerous >_> [18:18] Maaz: agreed Discuss future of the website by involving more help and re-thinking the purpose of the website. [18:18] Agreed: Discuss future of the website by involving more help and re-thinking the purpose of the website [18:19] Maaz: topic Ubuntu+1 status and feedback [18:19] Current Topic: Ubuntu+1 status and feedback [18:19] inetpro or magespawn: are you going to run with that? [18:20] superfly: I will follow up again in the evenings, and will try help where I can [18:20] * superfly has family to deal with now [18:20] superfly: :( [18:20] with the website superfly? [18:20] magespawn: yes [18:20] i've seen some more complains this last couple of weeks on the mailing list on the latest ubuntu release [18:21] * inetpro will discuss with magespawn and others and when superfly has time he will chime in [18:21] sure i can commit sometime to it [18:21] I don't know how much of that is caused by user error though :P [18:21] nuvolari: in most cases, user error I think [18:21] also, people thinking that a reinstall will fix stuff when 99% of cases it won't [18:21] As for 12.10, I'm still running 12.04 so I can't comment. However, I did upgrade my brother's netbook to have an ubuntu dualboot with 12.10 [18:22] nuvolari, I had trouble and went back to 12.04; but then again, i did an upgrade and not a clean install, and on top of that i had some hardware trouble at the same time, so I can't make a fair judgement [18:22] I did use 12.10 and it was very buggy and very slow [18:22] mazal: I have the same experience. [18:23] In general it seems that we have mixed experiences, both great and less great [18:23] all in all, i felt that webapps were not as useful as i thought they'd be, and there wasn't much else new there that would bring me back to 12.10 instead of just waiting for the next version [18:23] * nlsthzn pops in and says, "alo" [18:23] yeah.. I expected the alpha releases/beta releases to be buggy (they were) [18:23] hi nlsthzn [18:23] hi nlsthzn [18:23] but the stable releases were still buggy [18:23] which is a shame [18:23] hey nlsthzn :) [18:23] My web apps crash alot [18:23] tell maaz who you are nlsthzn [18:23] ah meeting still ongoing [18:24] yip [18:24] Maaz: my name is Neil Oosthuizen [18:24] nlsthzn: One learns a new thing every day [18:24] lol i am [18:24] well, I guess you can't blame them that much, as the LTS versions will be around much longer now [18:24] my web apps used a lot of memory and weren't really helpful because i had to have the web pages open anyway -.-v [18:24] nlsthzn: please sign the register [18:24] ai [18:24] did I do it wrong again [18:24] the llvmpipe thing has made a world of difference to me, but had a nasty issue in lightdm the other day that wouldnt let me change between windoww managers/desktop environments [18:24] I suspect they will not focus on it to have the releaces in between spotless [18:24] nlsthzn, maaz i am [18:24] * inetpro 's connection is lagging [18:24] Maaz: I am Neil Oosthuizen [18:24] nlsthzn: Sure [18:24] thanks uncle Kilos [18:24] yw [18:25] * nuvolari googles llvmpipe [18:25] nuvolari, all releases should be spotless - what if it's a new users first experience with Ubuntu [18:26] I agree with Cantide [18:26] true [18:26] What's the point of having a release every 6 months , but it feels like a beta [18:26] I guess you're right :-/ [18:26] we aim to have all releases be high quality [18:26] Then rather release once a year a proper stable one [18:26] LTS releases get special polish because they have to be supported for longer [18:27] but all releases should be fit for use [18:27] i usually stay on the lts [18:27] I feel they don't give themselves enough time on each release [18:27] LTS [18:27] I'm one of the lucky ones, I did not have many issues lately [18:27] i usually skip a release [18:28] ok, time is chasing us :-/ [18:28] i had a lot of freezing on 12.10, but i'm not sure if that was caused by faulty hardware or not [18:28] I don't think more time would help. More time spent on polish rather than features, wouldl, though [18:28] tumbleweed, agreed [18:28] nuvolari, yes :/ [18:28] * nlsthzn wonders what the topic is? [18:29] Maaz: current topic [18:29] nuvolari: *blink* [18:29] argh :-/ [18:29] lol [18:29] lol [18:29] ah blink... [18:29] hehe [18:29] it seems we went a bit off topic :D oops!

I had better get some sleep since I still have 3 more days of work left [18:51] night all [18:51] i am not going just to be clear [18:52] nuvolari: just for the record, my thoughts on the Ubuntu+1 topic was to get feedback from others involved with Ubuntu development or testing [18:52] magespawn: good night [18:53] superfly do you have a deb for the Quassel2go? seems to have removed from most places on the net [18:53] magespawn: I'll look around [18:53] cool ty [18:53] as far as I understand Ubuntu+1 is the next release, which would be 13.04 [18:54] might even still have it on my phone... [18:54] which is downstairs... *sigh* [18:54] no worries [18:55] hmm... [18:55] * inetpro thought magespawn is leaving [18:57] not yet, bit like a bad cold [18:58] magespawn: http://www.jabawok.net/uploads/quassel2go_0.8-pre5_armel.deb [18:59] cool [18:59] download, copy to device via USB, use file manager to find deb, open it to install it [19:00] cool ty superfly [19:02] got [19:02] it [19:03] * inetpro crashing early tonight [19:03] good night all [19:03] night inetpro [19:15] good night inetpro [19:20] Hey superfly am on the phone, ty.

[19:25] I still think this phone is the most awesome piece of engineering around even now [19:28] good night! :p [19:28] Night smile [19:29] thanks :) [19:30] magespawn: I agree [19:31] I have decided to stick with it and give mrs_fly a new phone, and she'll probably get a droid [19:31] evening [19:32] Maybe go and buy a whole load of new ones keep them in the boxs till you need them [19:32] Hey Squirm [19:32] Boxes even [19:35] brand new only R4000.00 [19:40] wtf :-/ [19:40] something is wrong with .tar.gz [19:40] it only transfers the first 2mb then freezes [19:41] something is wrong with your gunzip :P [19:41] gzip [19:41] er, it's before I have the complete file [19:41] wget/curl [19:41] when I bzip2 the file, it transfer without error [19:49] superfly do you read snargawok? [19:49] magespawn: can't say I even know what that is [19:50] the blog at www.jabawok,net [19:50] the blog at www.jabawok.net [19:55] so a client brought in a laptop today. It doesn't power off unless you hold down the off button. Ok, it turns off, but it turns itself back on. It's like the power option is set to 'always on', but it isn't. there is no such option in the BIOS and I've reset the BIOS to factory defaults. It stays off if you hold down the off button, or disconnect the battery and AC and connect them again. It's a Toshiba Satellite. I know this is a linux channel, [19:55] but anyone had this problem before? [19:55] no thats a good one Squirm [19:56] we also chat about other things in ##kilos, just to help keep this channel on topic [19:56] and for the life of me I can't find anything on google. everyone talks about them not turning off or not turning on. this turns off and on perfectly. but as it turns off it turns back on [19:58] not a faulty switch? [19:58] oh come on :-/ I feel like throwing my laptop against a wall or something [19:59] I thought it could be. but if I disconnect all power source and connect it back. it stays off. or if I hold down the power button it stays off [19:59] why can't flash be packaged like all the other apps? [19:59] nuvolari: what do you need flash for? [19:59] process of elimination Squirm [20:00] nuvolari: apt-get install adobe-flashplugin [20:00] ? [20:01] er... how many times did you install flash Squirm ? :P [20:01] it downloads a .tar.gz file [20:01] I never [20:01] came with mint [20:01] magespawn: yep [20:01] superfly: well, the sites that still have flash plugins here and there [20:02] the nonsense is that every freaking time it downloads to a new tmpXYZ.gz file :-/ [20:02] depressing quite a few [20:02] I don't know how to intercept that download [20:03] nuvolari: download the official tar.gz from their site? === Trixar_za is now known as Trix[a]r_za [20:17] this is absurd [20:17] my install is now broken [20:18] nothing I do would fix this flash mess [20:27] success!! [20:27] cool nuvolari [20:27] now, on to the router *sigh* [20:28] * nuvolari maintains radiosilence [20:28] routers are simple compared to flash [20:29] a lot of the billions that i have worked on have a problem when you try to apply any setting changes [20:42] good night all [20:53] Maaz: tell Kilos You're a bigmouth. You contribute about 48% of the chatter in here. [20:53] superfly: Righto, I'll tell Kilos on freenode
