OvenWerks | zequence: downloaded ubuntu-gnome. Can't run the live ISO. | 02:12 |
---|---|---|
OvenWerks | So I am missed :( | 02:12 |
OvenWerks | missed again. | 02:26 |
OvenWerks | zequence: downloaded ubuntu-gnome. Can't run the live ISO. | 02:26 |
OvenWerks | Typing from a VT | 02:26 |
OvenWerks | wILL try up stairs on an intel video chip | 02:27 |
OvenWerks | Ya, works up here | 02:33 |
OvenWerks | Ga!, seems so disorganized | 02:36 |
OvenWerks | I guess I still need an app menu :) | 02:39 |
OvenWerks | As happens, I just had to turn it on | 02:40 |
OvenWerks | The gnome menu seems to be buggy too, but I will have to try over riding it to be sure | 02:43 |
OvenWerks | My menu package seems to work in gnome shell too | 02:50 |
OvenWerks | fixing bug... | 02:50 |
OvenWerks | Hmm, still there... | 02:54 |
OvenWerks | I am not sure if that is because I am on the live ISO or if the menu file is not the one I am tweeking. It may be there is another. gnome shell is ok | 02:57 |
OvenWerks | so long as the menu can be turned on. I have found the app search works well though, once I know what app I am looking for. | 02:58 |
OvenWerks | I am not used to the way workspaces are accessed either. ut maybe that is just another setting too. | 02:59 |
OvenWerks | ust figgered out workspaces. | 03:01 |
OvenWerks | Nice | 03:03 |
OvenWerks | I could use gnome shell... as well as anthing else. (except unity, though I hear that is getting better) | 03:04 |
zequence | seems like I finally got my connection fixed | 03:06 |
OvenWerks | KDE works best for my desktop though. | 03:07 |
zequence | I had to change the MAC adress on my router to be able to change my IP | 03:07 |
OvenWerks | Ah. | 03:07 |
zequence | I get so weird IP adresses each time I get a new one too | 03:07 |
zequence | they have nothing in common at all | 03:08 |
OvenWerks | Anyway, I would guess our little menu would work with gnome classic too. | 03:08 |
OvenWerks | I have a static | 03:08 |
OvenWerks | scott.cbbs.org, aka www.ovenwerks.net | 03:09 |
OvenWerks | It means wecan have our own web mail set up | 03:09 |
OvenWerks | No adds | 03:09 |
OvenWerks | (ads?) | 03:10 |
OvenWerks | Anyway my wife would like her computer back :) | 03:13 |
zequence | Unity seems to be using their own set of categories, for application search | 03:20 |
zequence | not sure, but it seems that way | 03:20 |
zequence | gnome-shell is not a problem for us anyway | 03:20 |
zequence | I was not able to load Gnome classic just now | 03:20 |
OvenWerks | zequence: The desktop files (at least the ubuntu ones) have tags as well as categories. | 04:00 |
OvenWerks | Take a look at the USC one for an example. | 04:21 |
cub | Hi zequence , I saw in the logs that you and NickG talked about Wordpress. I've been fiddling with sites based on Wordpress as well if I can be to any help | 09:51 |
zequence | cub: How advanced would you say you are at php coding? | 10:08 |
cub | Not much. I can make wordpress and phpbb look like I want them too, but I'm not a coder | 10:09 |
zequence | Well, let's see if Nick can be of some help first. He seems to be fairly advanced. Also, we always have knome, the Xubuntu lead, the author of the theme | 10:11 |
zequence | cub: What do you usually use Ubuntu Studio for? | 10:11 |
cub | Yes, I was going to ask Nick about his issues with local set up with Apache. I run a couple of local development sites with nginx without any issues | 10:12 |
cub | My main reason was for audio recording. But I use it as my main laptop which means gimp work, web design, video editing, libre office and paying bills | 10:13 |
zequence | cub: If you'd like to help, getting a closer look at our applications, and whether they are well configured and built is something none of us really have the time to do | 10:20 |
zequence | I posted a mail about that on the mail list | 10:20 |
zequence | audio is a big workflow | 10:20 |
zequence | I suppose there's plenty of stuff in graphics and video too | 10:20 |
cub | The one about "Contributors needed to define our workflows"? | 10:21 |
zequence | Yeah | 10:21 |
cub | yeah, that's why I asked about the blueprints earlier. I'm trying to figure out what the workflows actually are | 10:22 |
cub | I was also thinking about the youtube tutorials. Is there a graphic profile available for ubuntu studio, or should I ask the art work team directly? | 10:23 |
zequence | What do you mean by graphic profile? | 10:25 |
zequence | We really only have one guy doing art right now | 10:25 |
zequence | that's our art lead, madeinkobaia | 10:25 |
cub | :) | 10:25 |
zequence | I have a hand in everything, all though, not in producing art so much | 10:25 |
cub | Graphic profile that states what logos to use, font, sizes, colors and so on. | 10:26 |
cub | I suppose we should use a title page before all tutorials as well as an end page for credits and information on where to find more info | 10:27 |
cub | and that they all look the same in terms of logo, colors and fonts | 10:27 |
zequence | That's something we can do afterwards | 10:27 |
cub | Yup | 10:28 |
zequence | After a few tutorials have been made | 10:28 |
zequence | plus, we can re-edit them | 10:28 |
zequence | I think it's just up to anyone who wants to make a tutorial, to set the tone | 10:28 |
zequence | on artwork, best to talk with madeinkobaia | 10:28 |
cub | I figure we might start out with a tutorial on how to make tutorials. :D | 10:28 |
cub | will do | 10:28 |
zequence | simple is best | 10:29 |
zequence | all we need is a intro page, and as you suggested, a outro page | 10:29 |
zequence | and subs | 10:30 |
zequence | the best place to start would be to create the actual tutorial first | 10:30 |
cub | yes, but some guidelines and perhaps a template would be nice to have | 10:30 |
cub | so we don't end up with Comic Sans….. | 10:30 |
zequence | sure, but first we need a tutorial to work on | 10:31 |
zequence | the person who start working on it, will most likely be the person who decides the style | 10:32 |
zequence | with feedback from the community | 10:32 |
cub | I'd better hurry up then | 10:32 |
zequence | there's a nice word that I picked up from some Debian text, describing the organization | 10:33 |
zequence | do-ocracy | 10:33 |
cub | heh | 10:33 |
zequence | Doesn't mean everyone's free to do whatever they want, but as long as no one is having any problems with something, I think it's up to the person who does the work | 10:34 |
zequence | often only one or two people will be even interested in a certain aspect of things | 10:35 |
zequence | which makes the chain of decision making pretty simple | 10:35 |
cub | sry, gotta focus on some work stuff | 10:35 |
cub | Is the page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuStudio/Meetings/ discontinued? | 21:26 |
OvenWerks | I haven't looked at it, but we have not had a meeting in a long time. | 21:26 |
OvenWerks | Like maybe a year and a half or more. | 21:26 |
OvenWerks | I'll be back in a while... gotta pick my son up. | 21:27 |
cub | last meeting minutes on the page was from 2012 so it seems about right. | 21:29 |
zequence | There aren't enough active devs in order for there to be a reason to have meetings | 21:41 |
zequence | besides, we know pretty well what we need to do | 21:41 |
cub | Aha, I | 21:46 |
cub | 'm just looking around reading different areas to get a grip on things | 21:47 |
OvenWerks | zequence: the applications menu in gnome shell.. from shell extensions doesn't seem to understand submenus. | 23:43 |
OvenWerks | I'm running ubuntu gnome. and have found that the gnome classic login doesn't work either | 23:44 |
OvenWerks | That may be as a result of a gnome 3 upgrade where gnome classic doesn't exist any more. | 23:45 |
NickG | I'd reinstall gnome classic if possible. | 23:46 |
NickG | I tried to install gnome, but it gave me this terrible gnome 3 :( | 23:46 |
NickG | is mate a possibility? | 23:46 |
OvenWerks | I am not sure what is up with mate or cinnamon | 23:49 |
OvenWerks | Mint is the iso to try it with | 23:49 |
OvenWerks | I think one is based on forked gnome2 libs and the other gnome3 libs | 23:50 |
DarkEra | cinnamon will become a more or less independent DE in the near future afaik | 23:57 |
