smartboyhwNoskcaj, hurray! Our teacher is going to teach us Python! (The Testdrive language:P)08:06
Noskcaj:) school python sucks though, my teach spent ten lessons and only taught us print and if08:07
smartboyhwNoskcaj, LOL08:07
smartboyhwBut I don't even know the basic stuff08:07
smartboyhwWe have four choices: C, Python, Java and Pascal, and it was an anonymous vote to Python (that's 16 people :O)08:08
Noskcajif you don't even know the basics, how come you've done more devel stuff than me?08:28
Noskcajsmartboyhw, i assume you will be top of the class because you have experience with python?08:28
smartboyhwNoskcaj, no I have no experience at all08:35
smartboyhwI just know a bit of C, Java and B08:35

* smartboyhw wonders if Noskcaj's claim of him being Xubuntu Testing Head in his blog was false, since he wasn't in the Xubuntu Team LP group.......12:19
smartboyhwOr in the Xubuntu leaders wiki page, IIRC.12:22

smartboyhwTmr maybe16:22
smartboyhwOr ask the UbuntuKylin guys!16:22
balloonssmartboyhw, ok.. it only have to be run once16:22
balloonsnot every respin :-)16:22
smartboyhwballoons: Asking for Kylin help:P16:22
balloonsthanks smartboyhw.. and pleasant dreams :-)16:23
plarsI suspect the ubuntukylin guys are going to have their hands full with that, but yes if they have native speakers with a bit of spare time to try it on the Ubuntu isos too, would be great16:23
phillwsmartboyhw: yeah, I've had good interaction with kylin team, they are very committed16:23
smartboyhwphillw: Of course, they have the Chinese government at their backs:P16:23

smartboyhwballoons: BTW is the quality section of the  community website done balloons?16:36
balloonssmartboyhw, know any Japanese? It would be nice to get native speakers of all of the, but the big deal behind the testcase is to test the pinyin support and input support for non-western languages16:37
balloonssmartboyhw, ahh yes.. we all worked on it awhile ago.. need to make sure it's ready to go in16:37
smartboyhwballoons: Look at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommunityWebsite and I'm on top of you:P16:37
ypwongballoons, probably can't test tonight though as download takes time and it's quite late here16:37

phillwballoons: I know a japanese reader / writer. He's the head of lubuntu-artwork. What would you like him to review?16:47
SergioMenesesno, I dont =/16:47

phillwsmartboyhw: All I know is that he was 'bored' and learned Japanese.16:49
smartboyhwphillw: :O …16:49
balloonsphillw, having him look at the testcase is never a bad idea.. i think the Japanese part of the testcase is the only one fully translated :-)16:50
phillwthese art people are... well. art people and their brains are connected a bit different to us testers and coders :D16:50

balloonsLetozaf, hello..19:23
Letozafballoons, got a question, can I ask you :)19:23
balloonsLetozaf, sure thing19:24
Letozafballoons, I have a bug that always occurred while testing ARM images, but now the problem has gone, not there anymore, I  do not know what to mark the bug, I mean its not invalid (at least I do not think so) and it is also not "fixed released"  ... what should I mark it?19:26
Letozafballoons, nothing seems to fit19:26
balloonswhich bug? is it/was it the graphics issue?19:28
balloonsisn't it fixed released?19:29
Letozafno its bug 109912219:29
ubot5bug 1099122 in ubiquity (Ubuntu) "unable to enter timezone city in input field during install" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/109912219:29
Letozafballoons, it always used to happen and now it been fixed, maybe this is a dupe of some other bug, but I do not want to leave it open19:30
balloonsLetozaf, weird19:41
balloonsI would possibly mark it invalid or fix released depending..19:42
balloonsmight want to ask on #ubuntu-bugs19:43
balloonsnormally I would go fix-released.. but if you don't think anything changed/was fixed, then ..19:43
Letozafballoons, I'm not sure, I mean maybe fixing something else fixed this, but I don't know :p19:44
Letozafballoons, so maybe I should ask #ubuntu-bugs19:44
Letozafballoons, it use to happen, so it's not invalid....19:45
balloonsyes, ask the bug experts :-)19:46
Letozafballoons, ok thanks19:47
balloonsLetozaf, so how are you? How have you been?19:48
Letozafballoons, well had a bad couple of weeks, some private problems to sort out, hope I have finished with them now :)19:50
Letozafballoons, what about you ?19:50
balloonsgetting over being sick :-)19:50
Letozafballoons, oh so we've been both knocked out :D19:51
Letozafballoons, hope you're feeling better now19:51
balloons:-) indeed19:53
balloonsI'm getting better.. I still feel pretty meh19:53
Letozafballoons, oh sorry about that, but slowly you will feel better I'm sure, we are going towards spring now and spring alway brings joy19:54
Letozafballoons, and makes you feel like going out and feel well19:55
plarsxnox: installing with ecryptfs home now gives you an encrypted swap partition, is that right? I didn't remember that being the case in the past19:55
Letozafballoons, well actually you have better weather than in Italy, so maybe it's been good weather for long now19:56
plarsxnox: I'm testing reinstall when you already have an account with ecryptfs (to preserve your user, home), and it complained that I didn't have swap when I tried to go to the next step.19:56
plarsI don't recall ever giving it a password for swap encrypted partition though19:57
balloonsplars, ohh interesting, let me try19:58
balloonsI *think* I have an old ecryptfs install19:58
plarsballoons: it *does* let me continue without it, but I suspect I'll be left with no valid swapspace after I reboot20:16
plarscontinuing through it now20:16
plarshttp://launchpad.net/bugs/1172002 is the bug20:16
ubot5Launchpad bug 1172002 in ubiquity (Ubuntu) "Install doesn't mount encrypted swap for reinstall" [Undecided,New]20:16
balloonsplars, well.. I tried and it doesn't even see my instal..20:16
balloonsso...20:16
plarsballoons: were you using encrypted partitions? or ecryptfs home?20:17
balloonsencrypted partition20:17
plarsballoons: ah, that's different20:17
balloonsyes20:17
balloonsI didn't have just an encrypted home20:17
plarsballoons: Unless they improved things, I believe that was unsupported for reinstall20:17
balloonsso I thought I'd try it anyway and see :-)20:17
balloonsindeed.. my guess is it will work if I boot up to live session, unlock it, then run the installer20:18
plarsballoons: I'm fairly certain that reinstalling with encrypted home used to work though, in fact didn't you have some stuff about testing it before?20:18
balloonsok, on the encrypted tests, let's see20:20
plarsballoons: right, so reinstalling with ecryptfs still works ok, I can still get at my files (that's always good to not have to recover :)20:21
plarsbut I have no swap20:21
balloonsso first, I'll check on your encrypted swap partition20:21
balloonsdoing ecryptfs install now.. by default the entire disk install makes a swap partiton20:21
plarsballoons: yes20:22
balloonsplars, sorry.. so ecryptfs.. it installed a cryptswapfs.. it didn't pick it up for re-install20:52
balloonsI agree though, it seems weird, like we're missing the encrypt home functionality20:53
balloonsI had thought it would be in 'other' features, but it's not20:53
balloonswe might need to add a second testcase for this bit of encryption20:54
balloonsplars, though basically ubiquity can't unlock any partition during installation. So since the swap partition (like my encrypted partition) can't be read.. I'm guessing again if you unlock it first, it might pick it up and use it20:55
phillwballoons: plars <rant> you are both nit-picking now? If you encrypt any part of your system, you are going to have grief. If you go down that route then you would be expected to understand how to handle it. We write test cases, not instruction manuals /<end rant>20:59
Noskcajballoons, where have you been hiding for the last few days?21:03

balloonsyes, I've been under the weather as they say21:04
balloonsNoskcaj, can you do me a favor?21:04
Noskcajyeah, what?21:05
balloonsif you start up the kubuntu installer and enter a password for encryption, does it verify it?21:05
balloonsin other words, type two different passwords.. see if it lets you continue or not21:05
Noskcajok, i will when it's finished rebuilding and my xubuntu install is over21:06
balloonsNoskcaj, ty ;-)21:06
balloonsSergioMeneses, howdy21:06
plarsphillw: I don't think this is nitpicking really, iirc this used to work from quantal, but I'd have to go back and check. If so, it's a regression. I think it's a pretty reasonable thing for a person to have installed a previous release with ecrypted home, and want to upgrade while preserving their home. We've said it works in the past21:10
plarsbut if it turns out that quantal did not do encrypted swap when selecting encrypted home, then it could possibly be release noted for anyone doing raring->raring reinstall, and fixed for S21:11
Noskcajballoons, Have you seen the email for a testdrive hackfest/devel hangout?21:11
balloonsindeed.. encrypted home is an option in the gui installer.. as such, it should work well21:11
