camelinahatMorning folks.11:38
camelinahatjbicha: Was anything ever decided on for a different logo?17:07
SonikkuAmericaI did major edits to the wiki on Ubuntu GNOME: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuGNOME/ and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuGNOME/ReleaseNotes/12.10 <<< I moved most of the general info to the main page and left the download page with the install info and bug reporting information.17:56
jbichaSonikkuAmerica: ok but what happens when 13.04 is released?18:01
jbichaWe need a separate single page (or group of pages) with the complete release notes for every milestone (12.10 Final, 12.10 Beta, 13.04 Beta, etc.)18:02
SonikkuAmericaI do plan on removing the stuff on specific version info and pointing to each release... should I set up a separate page for each of them...?18:02
SonikkuAmerica(I understand we're only having one beta release before the 1st stable)18:03
jbichayes we should not delete release notes for any release that we do (and that includes any Alpha or Beta milestones)18:03
SonikkuAmericaI didn't delete all the release notes... but should I throw specific version info back into the page for the release?18:04
SonikkuAmericaIf so, that's an easy fix18:04
SonikkuAmericaLike (GNOME Shell 3.6) etc...?18:05
camelinahatCan probably remove 'Remix' from the mailing list link as well :)18:05
SonikkuAmericaOh right... XD I tried to get rid of all the refs to "Remix"18:06
camelinahat:)18:06
jbichaSonikkuAmerica: almost all of the stuff you moved to the front page of the wiki is part of the Release Notes18:06
jbichasee https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QuantalQuetzal/ReleaseNotes for instance18:06
SonikkuAmericaOh OK... so what exactly stays on it?18:09
jbichaSonikkuAmerica: ok the page looks better now, could you also copy the Participate, More Information, and Support sections back to the release notes as well18:11
SonikkuAmericaSure.18:11
jbichayou can keep a copy on the main page too18:12
jbichathanks, the front page of the wiki does look better now!18:12
jbichait was very minimal before as we needed to at least have something there18:13
SonikkuAmericaYeah... I think I got a little overzealous with my first edit and decided to swing by. I'm really excited that GNOME is (sort of) coming back to Ubuntu, and as a young college student with a passion for both Ubuntu and GNOME, wanted to get involved.18:14
jbichaSonikkuAmerica: you're in Ohio, right?18:16
SonikkuAmericaYeah18:16
jbichaSonikkuAmerica: have you met gonyere yet? I believe she runs Ubuntu and is active with GNOME18:17
SonikkuAmericaNope.18:17
jbichaand there will be several GNOME guys at http://openhelpconference.com/18:18
jbichaI went last year but won't be able to this year18:18
SonikkuAmericaI dunno... That's actually the week before Cedarville starts fall classes, and it's only about an hour's drive from there...18:19
jbichareally? fall semester starts in June/July?18:21
SonikkuAmericaOh wait... I'm looking at the '12 schedule... derp I could've made if I'd known18:22
SonikkuAmericaIt's actually pretty early this year...18:22
jbichait was in June the first year (2011) too18:23
SonikkuAmericaYeah... and I doubt I'll have $100 plus hotel fee... oh well18:24
SonikkuAmericaI probably could use a few webinars' worth of stuff18:24
jbichaSonikkuAmerica: well....are you interested in writing help for GNOME?18:25
SonikkuAmericaI actually see myself as a concept-oriented kind of guy, but I did join the Spanish translation team because I'm a fluent Spanish speaker as well as an English speaker and can understand written Spanish well18:26
jbichaif you were a GNOME Foundation member and were involved in docs then I believe there's sponsorship money available18:28
SonikkuAmericaI'm not (yet) enough of a contributor. In fact, I'm just starting out.18:30
jbichayou can to shaunm on #docs on irc.gnome.org if he has a student discount; conferences/hackfests are a bit expensive to put on but we don't want to exclude people18:31
jbicha*can talk to*18:31
SonikkuAmericaIs that a symlink to freenode or its own (or a different) IRC network18:31
SonikkuAmerica?18:32
jbichaGNOME uses a different irc network18:35
SonikkuAmericaOK18:35
camelinahatjbicha: Did you catch my message earlier about the icons? Of the ones that were presented on the mailing list or on G+ rather than quick and dirty ones I threw for G+ and FB?18:40
jbichacamelinahat: I like the mailing list ones, we'll have to decide soon since User Interface Freeze is next Thursday18:46
jbichaI'm thinking we'll just have to pick something by Monday and it can always be revisited or tweaked in a future release cycle18:46
jbichaI'll email the list tonight or tomorrow18:47
camelinahatjbicha: sounds good. I like them better than what I have right now but don't want to be switching them a lot either.18:51
laz0rrrgorehey guys, just installed 13.04, but there seems to be some kind of problem. gdm is starting (at least i'm in a gdm session), but it won't show me the login screen. i can only manage to login through console.21:50
darkxstlaz0rrrgore, probably openGL is broken21:51
laz0rrrgoreoh! anything i can do about it, or just wait till a fix is in the repos?21:52
darkxstlaz0rrrgore, what graphics drivers do you use?21:53
darkxstits probably a misconfiguration on your end21:55
laz0rrrgoredarkxst, how to find out? i've got the thinkpad sl510 with Intel GMA 4500MHD. just installed the daily from today21:55
darkxstdid the live CD work ok?21:56
laz0rrrgoreyeah21:56
laz0rrrgorei can also see the blue stripes background after install. just not the gdm prompt21:57
Leon_NardellaI'm in the same situation with a GMA900 Dell netbook.21:58
laz0rrrgoretried to add gnome3-team ppa (because i thought maybe an updated gdm would help), but no luck ...22:00
darkxstok try 'apt-get install --reinstall xserver-xorg-core xserver-xorg-video-intel'22:04
darkxstif that doesnt help, grab the xorg logs from /var/log/gdm/:0.log22:05
laz0rrrgorethanks ... i'm on it ....22:06
laz0rrrgorereinstalling didn't work ...22:15
darkxstlaz0rrrgore, can you grab the X logs then22:16
laz0rrrgorei think so ;) just a sec22:16
laz0rrrgoreok,. here it is ... http://bit.ly/15RmLIq22:29
darkxstthat looks fine, what about if you run 'export DISPLAY=:0; glxinfo | grep OpenGL'22:34
darkxstis renderer listed as Software/llvm22:35
darkxst'LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose glxinfo'22:37
laz0rrrgorethink i'm doing something wrong here. just getting 'Error: unable to open display :0'22:40
darkxstmaybe it can't connect to the gdm server22:41
darkxstyou could try 'startx -- :1'22:41
darkxstand then use :1 in the above command22:41
laz0rrrgoreah. maybe i'm the wrong guy for this. getting: 'xinit: connection to  X server lost'22:44
darkxstlaz0rrrgore, can you file a bug with 'ubuntu-bug mesa'22:47
darkxstafter you have done that, you can try and upgrade mesa and see if that helps https://launchpad.net/~darkxst/+archive/mesa/+packages22:48
darkxstjbicha, should we be listed on the isotracker?22:49
laz0rrrgoresure! are there any details i should mention in the bug report?22:49
darkxstlaz0rrrgore, just cc me on the bug22:51
jbichadarkxst: yes but we probably just need to specify what tests we want22:53
laz0rrrgoredarkxst: okay. thanks for your help and for your patience in spite of my newbism22:54
darkxstlaz0rrrgore, if updated mesa doesnt work, as a temporary workaround you can blacklist the intel kernel module22:55
darkxstthen it will fallback to llvmpipe (as its meant to anyway, when glx is broken)22:56
darkxstjbicha, I think something similar to Ubuntu Studio would be a good start23:00
jbichadarkxst: ok, do you want to ask on #ubuntu-release about that?23:03
darkxstlaz0rrrgore, you didnt use ubuntu-bug?23:05
darkxstcan you run 'apport-collect 1155829', so system info gets added to the bug23:05
laz0rrrgoreoh sorry, i'm totally new to this ...23:05
darkxstjbicha, ok23:09
laz0rrrgoredarkxst: apparently i can't. is this possible from console? it asks for authorization through the browser23:14
SolidSteel144hi, does anyone else have issues getting UG 13.04 daily to install?23:24
jbichaSolidSteel144: have you had any trouble installing the regular Ubuntu daily?23:29
SolidSteel144no23:29
SolidSteel144UG 13.04 daily gets stuck on preparing to install23:29
SolidSteel144well actually, I misread.. I haven't tried regular ubuntu 13.04 daily lately23:30
