| skellat | Unit193: Alrighty. Got home and fixed what was written as I seemed to also forget to include some steps that I incorrectly assumed the reader would carry over from the previous example. | 00:41 |
|---|---|---|
| skellat | Already pushed it upwards to Launchpad. | 00:41 |
| micahg | ochosi: the new themes seem to be the only difference in your paste | 03:52 |
| ochosi | micahg: that's because mr_pouit uploaded a new package last night | 08:44 |
| ochosi | micahg: he decided not to upload the new themes because we're too close to UIF | 08:44 |

| c2tarun | I want to contribute to Xubuntu. I am familiar with application development. Can anyone please suggest me that I should start from fixing bugs or packaging? | 13:28 |
| knome | c2tarun, you'll want to talk to micahg and mr_pouit as well as bluesabre_ who's helping us out a lot right now | 13:29 |
| knome | c2tarun, but basically, a good starting point is to fix anything that scratch your itches | 13:29 |
| c2tarun | knome, hmm... till now I am not able to find any bugs. Also seems like the guys you suggested are away. I'll wait for them. Meanwhile I am trying to learn some packaging, I figured out that learning some packaging might help in application development a bit. | 13:31 |
| knome | c2tarun, that helps too :) | 13:31 |
| knome | and yes, people are busy... now that i pinged them, they'll most probably get back to you when they are back if you hang out in the channel | 13:31 |
| micahg | ochosi: ah, ok, anything else left? | 13:33 |
| c2tarun | setting up a chroot is better or installing full release in virtual box is better? | 13:36 |
| knome | i suppose that depends what you like yourself | 13:37 |
| c2tarun | knome, well, I don't have any problem in using command prompt, also I don't have very fast internet connection, I'll try with chroot first. | 13:38 |
| knome | you might not even need either of them, depending on what you are working | 13:38 |
| c2tarun | knome, I'll prefer not to mess up my current installation :( I am on Ubuntu 12.04. Its written in guide that its best to work on current development release, I guess that is raring ringtail | 13:40 |
| knome | c2tarun, yes, that's it | 13:40 |
| bluesabre_ | hey c2tarun, if you're interested in fixing bugs, parole could always use some help | 13:55 |
| knome | bluesabre_, :P | 13:56 |
| c2tarun | bluesabre_, hi :) who is parole, I don't think he is in the channel. | 13:56 |
| bluesabre_ | woops, parole media player | 13:56 |
| c2tarun | bluesabre_, ohhh :) I was about to ask what, but I thought someone might get offended. | 13:57 |
| c2tarun | bluesabre_, thanks :) I'll look into its bugs, does xubuntu also maintain bugs on launchpad? | 13:58 |
| bluesabre_ | some bugs are there, but the xfce applications track their bugs on the xfce bugzilla | 13:58 |
| bluesabre_ | here's parole's bugzilla: | 13:58 |
| bluesabre_ | https://bugzilla.xfce.org/buglist.cgi?bug_status=UNCONFIRMED&bug_status=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=REOPENED&bug_status=NEEDINFO&product=parole&list_id=11231 | 13:58 |
| bluesabre_ | and the code is at http://git.xfce.org/apps/parole | 13:59 |
| c2tarun | bluesabre_, great thanks :) | 13:59 |
| bluesabre_ | if you're interested in other projects, there's catfish (on launchpad), lightdm-gtk-greeter (also on launchpad), and ochosi, mr_pouit, and micahg would know where to find other bugs and what other projects we're currently focused on | 14:02 |
| ochosi | micahg: yes, actually we wanted to upload a new version of the lightdm-gtk-greeter to Raring, that hasn't happened yet | 14:41 |
| ochosi | micahg: i guess bluesabre_ would have to do a new release of it though, i'll be away during the next ~4hrs or so | 14:41 |
| bluesabre_ | ochosi, no can do | 16:12 |
| bluesabre_ | no linux here | 16:12 |
| bluesabre_ | I'll see about doing it tonight | 16:16 |
| bluesabre_ | mr_pouit, are there any special things you do for new releases on that? | 16:16 |
| abderraouf | hi all | 17:50 |
| GridCube | hi | 17:54 |
| abderraouf | i try xubuntu 13.04 beta1 and a find the window border "shaking and confused" when moving the window. | 18:00 |
| abderraouf | i try it on live dvd | 18:00 |
| holstein | !raring | abderraouf | 18:03 |
| ubottu | abderraouf: Ubuntu 13.04 (Raring Ringtail) will be the 18th release of Ubuntu, Discussion and support until final release in #ubuntu+1 | 18:03 |
| abderraouf | ????????? | 18:04 |
| holstein | abderraouf: the #ubuntu+1 channel is where to go for 13.04 | 18:06 |
| abderraouf | ok | 18:06 |
| holstein | abderraouf: though, this is the dev channel, and i dont think its OT.. just maybe not "noticed" as quickly | 18:06 |
| abderraouf | maybe it is a bug | 18:07 |
| holstein | abderraouf: what graphics driver? | 18:07 |
| abderraouf | i9xx | 18:07 |
| holstein | abderraouf: you could test with "nomodeset" and see, i suppose | 18:07 |
| abderraouf | how install nomodeset? | 18:08 |
| abderraouf | sudo apt-get install nomodeset | 18:08 |
| abderraouf | ? | 18:09 |
| knome | nomodeset, the kernel option | 18:09 |
| abderraouf | how do it please | 18:09 |
| Unit193 | https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Intel#X_freeze.2Fcrash_with_intel_driver is what I look at for graphics issues I have, but I'm sure I have a different card even though we may both use i915. | 18:09 |
| holstein | !nomodeset | 18:09 |
| ubottu | A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 18:09 |
| holstein | i would try that since that should work from the live CD ^^ | 18:10 |
| abderraouf | but it is not freeze and crash :) window border "shaking and confused" when moving the window. | 18:12 |
| knome | abderraouf, is that on a virtual machine of real hardware? | 18:13 |
| knome | *or | 18:13 |
| holstein | abderraouf: with nomodeset as well? | 18:13 |
| abderraouf | real hardware | 18:13 |
| knome | ok | 18:13 |
| abderraouf | i have to try nomodeset? | 18:14 |
| abderraouf | what it is do? | 18:14 |
| holstein | abderraouf: you dont have to do anything.. but that is a way to remove some variables, and get an idea of what could be the issue, while using a live CD | 18:14 |
| abderraouf | and what's you need? | 18:15 |
| holstein | abderraouf: i dont need anything.. if it were me, and i were exeperiencing the issue you are having, i would try with the nomodeset option | 18:17 |
| abderraouf | ok | 18:17 |
| abderraouf | am will try with nomodeset | 18:18 |
| abderraouf | hi | 18:23 |
| abderraouf | back | 18:24 |
| abderraouf | it is the same problem | 18:24 |
| abderraouf | so? | 18:27 |
| skellat | And it looks like we've hit UI Freeze | 21:07 |
| skellat | How long until Documentation Freeze? | 21:07 |
| knome | 2 weeks until doc string freeze | 21:21 |
| skellat | Okay | 21:23 |
