[09:14] <smeag0l> good morning
[16:45] <stgraber> highvoltage: I'm writing the skeleton of the announcement.
[16:48] <stgraber> highvoltage: http://www.edubuntu.org/news/12.04.2-release
[16:50] <highvoltage> stgraber: I guess I would just remove the insert some stuff here part
[16:51] <stgraber> highvoltage: ok, so simply not quote anything in this one?
[16:51] <highvoltage> (well, I just did it)
[16:51] <highvoltage> stgraber: unless you have some quotes gathered? I don't have anything atm
[16:52] <stgraber> highvoltage: nope, was wondering if you had any. As you don't, it's fine to just drop the paragraph altogether
[16:52] <stgraber> highvoltage: alright. I'll prepare the mirror and the e-mail announcement. Looks like we're getting close to release as we need to get 12.04.2 out before alpha2 can be released (and we want both done by EOD UK time if possible)
[16:53] <highvoltage> stgraber: who besides kubuntu is doing alpha2? ubuntu core?
[16:54] <stgraber> highvoltage: ubuntu cloud
[16:54] <stgraber> (just the cloud images, not server)
[19:07] <Tstoner98133> Hi!  I am installing edubuntu-12.04.1-dvd-amd64 on a Toshiba Satellite C655-S5212 64 bit.  the dvd installs and I come up to a graphic background screen wiht a big satellite (coincidence?) and a login prompt.  Apparently I need credentials at this point?  which I can't find reference to.  or something wrong?   Help?
[19:20] <Tstoner98133> I can now see that I did not go through the full installation process.  I selected the language as the first step, and then the next screen I see is the GUI login.  I am sure there are directions regarding this problem but I dont know where to look.  Any help :-)
[19:26] <highvoltage> Tstoner98133: hmm, while installing it will ask you for a username and password
[19:26] <highvoltage> Tstoner98133: if the setup didn't complete, it might be a good idea to restart the installation, otherwise who knows what else didn't finish up :)
[19:29] <Tstoner98133_> i tried it twice with the same result.  boot from the CD.  select language.  whir whir.  GUI login screen.  Seeing the installation guide there are a number of setup screens which should appear but don't
[19:30] <stgraber> sounds like you're either having an extremely weird installation bug (can you try installing in english?) or your DVD/iso image is somehow corrupted
[19:35] <Tstoner98133> I did select english as the install.  I saw something referring to a hardware problem causing the install to go to a shell prompt, but I assumed that would be a CLI not a GUI prompt
[19:35] <stgraber> ok, so english is usually pretty well tested, so it's not a generic installer problem at least :)
[19:36] <stgraber> so I'd recommend re-downloading the image (you may as well take 12.04.2 then, it'll be released in a couple of hours) and try burning on a new media
[19:36] <stgraber> you can find the 12.04.2 images at: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/edubuntu/releases/12.04.2/release/
[19:39] <highvoltage> Tstoner98133: weird, that's something we've never seen before. and you wrote it to DVD, not a CD? might be good to do a test of the disc to make sure it downloaded and burned correctly
[19:42] <Tstoner98133> thats a good plan, I will try that
