rowboatnick#chair elfy19:06
meetingologyCurrent chairs: elfy rowboatnick19:06
elfyback - sorry bout that 19:06
rowboatnickhehe19:06
pleia2you snooze, you become a chair19:07
lderanits the law of the land19:07
elfyso - shall I kick it off then 19:07
rowboatnickSo. Anyone have any specifics they want to discuss? I have a smaller list of things19:07
rowboatnickDo that19:07
elfyk - I was chatting to balloons in the qa channel - trying to get a handle on whether it's going to be much use to us before we spend a  lot of time 19:08
elfyand we can probably make it easier to do some of the more basic tests - but whether we'll find it's a good use of our time I'm not so sure19:09
elfywe're never going to be able to do advanced testing - so that's going to be manual it seems19:10
rowboatnickHow come?19:10
elfyperhaps some install tests - they are being worked on19:10
elfyissues with gtk I think rowboatnick19:10
rowboatnickAn automated installer/test would be great :P19:10
rowboatnickOh19:11
lderanthat it would19:11
elfy<balloons> ahh.. well, gtk apps are a little notorious, but we have a branch of working testcases we've done for the ubuntu desktop apps19:11
elfy<balloons> for you guys, I think the automating installer work is your best bang for the buck at the moment19:11
elfybasically those two quotes sum up what I got from the chat with him :)19:11
elfyBUT 19:11
lderanah okay19:11
elfygiven how many people we tend to have testing - how many are likely to have machines they can let an automatic test loose on?19:12
elfyI know I haven't19:12
rowboatnickI would probably use it for a VM19:12
lderando we know the percentage of testing done on VMs?19:12
rowboatnickWe did have testers fill in their equippment prior19:13
rowboatnickIm not sure where that data has gone, or if its updated19:13
elfylderan: I don't know - my next thing to dig at is how to drag stats from the reports the tracker produces19:13
elfyrowboatnick: agreed - I could do so with VM's 19:13
rowboatnickSo automated tests are low priority, in general?19:14
elfyapparently someone is working on these installer tests 19:14
elfyrowboatnick: I think that if people 'ubuntu' orientated are looking at those - let them19:15
elfyour time would be better used in doing basic app tests I'd think for the future19:15
rowboatnickWe have a lot of unique software tho19:15
elfy^^19:15
rowboatnickBut yes, I do see the point19:16
elfyI'd rather have autotest to do abiword/gnumeric etc19:16
elfyinstall is install 19:16
lderanagreed, basic testing is best way 19:16
elfythat's my thinking - I'm looking at trying to have things there for the LTS 19:16
elfydon't know what you're thoughts are 19:17
rowboatnickMy thoughts were, I suppose, try to get people on writing core function test cases, and like you said before, elaborate them later19:18
elfythis is the crux of my problem with it - how many people do we have :)19:19
elfyas far as I know there are you and lderan 19:19
elfyat least looking at our things19:20
rowboatnickBut its kinda low hanging fruit too. One can simply write and suggest a testcase, so those people mailing the list relatively frequently could perhaps be pointed in that direction19:20
elfyyep19:21
elfyhow about if we try and at least get some sort of list together and get bugs done for them - something to point people towards19:22
rowboatnickBtw, how bad is it, tester wise, are there any non-irc people doing them+19:22
elfyI know of a few19:23
elfyI think we'll have a better idea when alpha1 is out for a week19:23
rowboatnickYes it sounds like a plan19:23
lderanyeah list idea sounds good19:23
elfythe manual stuff is working well like that - getting picked off one by one 19:23
elfyok - so I'll get a list together - we can brainstorm some sort of priority for it then do some bugs and set importance 19:24
rowboatnickokay19:24
lderanokay19:24
elfyso that's the general part sorted for the moment -  plan A 19:25
elfyI can co-ordinate this - but the specifics are beyond me - I'm no coder 19:26
elfyso if I can look to you both to help that'll be great19:26
rowboatnicksure19:26
lderanaye will do all that i can19:26
elfythanks :)19:27
elfyso - rowboatnick you had some specifics? 19:27
rowboatnickYes, but we basically covered them, i had some points about; which apps are critical to test? contributors, core features and state of the install of autopilot19:28
rowboatnick(typing with 1 finger, so its a bit slow ;))19:29
rowboatnickSo, yes, I dont really have anything to add I suppose19:30
elfyok - lderan ?19:31
lderanall stuff covered for me19:31
elfy#action elfy create list of apps for autopilot for prioritisation19:32

elfyrowboatnick lderan - anything else needing action or idea ?19:33
rowboatnicknot that i can think of19:34
lderansame19:34
elfyk19:34
elfythanks then :)19:34
rowboatnickthank you :)19:34

elfyd'oh 19:35
lderanwhat's up?19:36
elfyshould have put noscjak's name against the actions :p19:36
lderanah19:36
=== yofel_ is now known as yofel
NoskcajWhat package are the indicators at the logon screen from?21:29
Noskcajthere's a graphical glitch in 13.1021:30
ochosiNoskcaj: screenshot plz21:30
ochosi(if you refer to the session-menu and the language menu, then those aren't ubuntu indicators, but normal menus that are part of the greeter)21:31
Noskcajochosi, http://imgur.com/6GawhHD21:34
Noskcajtop right corner21:34
ochosiNoskcaj: right, the fix is in Greybird already, could you try it from git?21:35
Noskcajhow do i do that?21:35
ochosidownload here: https://github.com/shimmerproject/Greybird/archive/master.zip21:35
ochosiextract to ~/.themes/21:36
ochosi(if that dir doesn't exist, just create it)21:36
Noskcajdone21:38
ochosithen logout again and check whether it's fixed21:39
Noskcajit's not.21:39
Noskcaji'll try restarting21:39
ochosinah, wait a sec21:39
ochosi"ls ~/.themes/" looks like what?21:40
ochosi(the folder inside should be called "Greybird", not something else)21:40
NoskcajGreybird-master21:40
ochosiright, rename that ;)21:41
ochosior switch to Greybird-master in the appearance settings21:41
ochosior actually no, rename it, otherwise you also have to change the lightdm-gtk-greeter config file21:41
Noskcajdone21:42
Noskcajafter logging out then back in a crash report has appeared21:42
Noskcajand the bug still isn't fixed21:43
Noskcaji've tried both21:44
ochosiwell anyhoo, the new greeter (1.6) will hopefully land in saucy soon and as soon as greybird from git lands there as well, that glitch will be gone21:45
ochosiso nothing to worry about21:45
Noskcajok21:45
Noskcajyay, only 4 bugs this install21:45
Noskcaj8 is my record this cycle21:46
* Noskcaj isn't sure if this is an achievement21:46
