| jea | July 2013 Team Meeting | 09:49 |
| jea | http://loco.ubuntu.com/meetings/ubuntu-au/617/detail/ | 09:50 |
| jea | #topic Brisbane Ubuntu Session | 09:50 |
| jea | I will be running an ubuntu information session at my University (University of Queensland) in the next couple of weeks | 09:51 |
| hot_wheelz | hey wy017 | 09:51 |
| jea | evening wy017 | 09:51 |
| jea | I have received a conference pack, which I will use to promote Ubuntu at the event | 09:52 |
| jea | Anyone is invited, and I will post more updates with timing as I know it | 09:53 |
| wy017 | hello all, | 09:53 |
| jea | Event details: http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/ubuntu-au/2456-beginning-with-ubuntu/ | 09:53 |
| jea | (time subject to change) | 09:53 |
| noskcaj | I know i cannot attend. Would you like me to host one at UNE some time? | 09:53 |
| jea | Any events we can run would be good | 09:54 |
| jea | Are you normally at UNE, noskcaj? | 09:54 |
| noskcaj | jea, no, i'm too young for that (14). University of New England | 09:54 |
| jea | that is what I thought | 09:54 |
| wy017 | still having problem with the keyboard layout on Asus A46CM. Anyone has a solution? I'm new to ubuntu btw :) | 09:55 |
| jea | Certainly when you get to uni, it would be something you could look at doing | 09:55 |
| noskcaj | wy017, Try #ubuntu | 09:55 |
| hot_wheelz | jea wy017 is a mate of of mine and i am assisting him in becoming a member of ubuntu-au | 09:55 |
| jea | wy017: We can try to help, but for that particular issue, you might find more help in #ubuntu as noskcaj suggested | 09:55 |
| jea | Welcome wy017 to Ubuntu Australia | 09:56 |
| noskcaj | Welcome wy017 | 09:56 |
| wy017 | Thanks all. I will post a request over there. Thank you, glad to be here | 09:57 |
| hot_wheelz | he has an issue with hotkeys on a ASUS A46CM-WX094D we trying to sort out | 09:57 |
| hot_wheelz | not sure if it's a mapping issue or not | 09:57 |
| hot_wheelz | any ideas? | 09:57 |
| noskcaj | jea, one small thing on the loco.ubuntu page you have up. Should it be "installation DVDs" rather than CDs? | 09:58 |
| jea | Yes, it should. Shows how long it is since I got an installation disc | 09:58 |
| jea | noskcaj: fixed now | 10:01 |
| noskcaj | :) | 10:01 |
| jea | Well that is all I have to report on that for now. Keep an eye out for more details in the next couple of weeks | 10:03 |
| jea | I don't think jellyware is around for his local cd update, so we will hold that for next time | 10:04 |
| jea | #topic Local CD shipping | 10:04 |
| jea | I guess a reminder that you can get DVDs through http://www.ubuntu.net.au | 10:05 |
| jea | They are made by jellyware, and sent out for a small fee to cover shipping | 10:05 |
| jea | Thanks for coming to the impromptu make-up meeting | 10:05 |
| jea | Next meeting will be on August 11, 2013 at 8pm AEST | 10:06 |

| noskcaj | You might want to delete references to the .org.au website sine the .net looks far better | 10:07 |
| jea | the .net.au website is not a centrally controlled site | 10:07 |
| jea | it is purely for shipping dvds, and is a third party service | 10:07 |
| noskcaj | oh. Then is there a way to make the .org.au site active again (e.g. meeting logs) | 10:08 |
| jea | you mean add content to it? | 10:08 |
| jea | I can certainly get on to that | 10:10 |
| jea | wy017: what is the issue you are having? | 10:10 |
| jea | I see there is not too much help forthcoming on #ubuntu | 10:12 |
| noskcaj | jea, yeah, content and maybe a better theme. | 10:12 |
| jea | the theme is mimicing the Ubuntu.com theme | 10:12 |
| jea | It should be updated a bit | 10:13 |
| wy017 | Hi jea, the hotkey isn't working. For example the mute button doesn't work as it should be. I believe I still in the generic keyboard setting (US keyboard). I try to change it to different setting but it doesn't work as well. | 10:16 |
| jea | hmm, ok | 10:16 |
| jea | laptop hotkeys can be hard to get working, because each keyboard has a different setup | 10:17 |
| wy017 | Is there anyway that I can access the setting and designated each keys to suit my keyboard layout? or Do I need a specific Linux driver to be installed in order to make the keyboards work as I would like to? | 10:19 |
| jea | there most likely won't be a driver specifically for it | 10:19 |
| hot_wheelz | jea it's more mapping right? | 10:20 |
| jea | I think so | 10:20 |
| hot_wheelz | wy017 tell jea what you told me about the other asus model | 10:22 |
| jea | normally I would suggest looking at the forums, but they are offline at the moment | 10:22 |
| hot_wheelz | they are usually a good source of info | 10:24 |
| noskcaj | askubuntu is a good replacement to the forums | 10:24 |
| wy017 | I found out a list of certified Asus model for Ubuntu. | 10:24 |
| wy017 | http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/make/Asus/ | 10:24 |
| wy017 | However the model I have isn't in the list | 10:25 |
| jea | not all models will be on the list | 10:25 |
| wy017 | I believe that if somehow I can try to use one of the driver, it might work since all the keyboard layout of all Asus product is similar to one of another | 10:27 |
| jea | yes, that is true | 10:28 |
| jea | Usually it is loaded automatically if the device is detected | 10:29 |
| jea | which version of ubuntu are you using? | 10:29 |
| wy017 | Hi Jea, 13.04 | 10:31 |
| jea | and it is all up to date? | 10:31 |
| jea | because generally as you get newer kernels, you get more supported | 10:31 |
| wy017 | I believe it's all up to date | 10:33 |
| hot_wheelz | jea, the system is running 3.8.0-26 | 10:33 |
| jea | that sounds pretty new. I can't remember what is up to date though | 10:34 |
| hot_wheelz | it's the latest pushed by ubuntu | 10:35 |
| jea | ok | 10:35 |
| hot_wheelz | it was built and fully updated on Sunday | 10:35 |
| jea | that should be fine | 10:36 |
| hot_wheelz | jea, any ideas you can let me know i will pass them on | 10:38 |
| jea | hot_wheelz: where in Aus are you located? | 10:38 |
| hot_wheelz | why? just curious | 10:39 |
| jea | this might help: http://askubuntu.com/questions/63734/how-to-use-enable-fn-keys-to-adjust-volume-at-my-asus-laptop | 10:40 |
| jea | just wondering where people are, to sort of keep track of where our members come from | 10:40 |
| hot_wheelz | We are both Vic based | 10:41 |
| hot_wheelz | thanks mate i'll pass it on | 10:42 |
| jea | cool | 10:42 |
| hot_wheelz | thanks again talk soon | 10:43 |
| jea | ok | 10:43 |
| jea | noskcaj: I have adjusted the look a bit | 10:46 |
| jea | content can be done by anyone with permissions, which I can give to you if you would like | 10:46 |
| noskcaj | I'm running 13.10, mostly because i'm stupid though | 10:47 |
| jea | that was in relation to the website | 10:48 |
| hot_wheelz | jea, | 11:07 |
| jea | yep | 11:08 |
| hot_wheelz | how old was that article you sent me I could n't tell | 11:08 |
| jea | um, not sure | 11:09 |
| jea | ah, from 2011 | 11:09 |
| jea | a bit old | 11:09 |
| hot_wheelz | because it stated that the fix had be to be applied after each kernel update until a real fix was included so it had me wondering that's all | 11:11 |
| hot_wheelz | we'll give it a shot anyway | 11:12 |
| jea | give it a shot, but it should be in the kernel by now | 11:12 |
| jea | how old is the laptop? | 11:12 |
| hot_wheelz | not entirely sure it would also be worth raising a report to have patch included right? | 11:14 |
| jea | not for that one | 11:15 |
| hot_wheelz | i too would have also thought it be included by now but clearly not | 11:15 |
| jea | it is possible that for a new laptop, there might be subtle differences that have not come through yet | 11:16 |
| jea | *not been fixed in kernel yet | 11:16 |
| hot_wheelz | i'll keep you posted | 11:19 |
| jea | ok | 11:19 |
| jared | jea: so the conf pack arrived? | 12:08 |
| jea | yes, it arrived today | 12:08 |
| jea | much quicker than expected | 12:08 |
| jared | Yeah I was going to say that was quick | 12:08 |
| jea | It is only Day 1 of this semester, so it can be used as soon as I get the event set up | 12:10 |
| jared | I can tell when real uni comes back, the hallways are busier. | 12:11 |
| jea | yeah, there would be a big change overnight | 12:11 |
| ikt | ubuntu edge | 20:18 |
| ikt | wish I had $600 so bad | 20:18 |
| Noskcaj | ditto | 20:19 |
| ikt | my take on it is that if they get at least 5 million one day, they should be able to get it | 20:20 |
| ikt | on first day* | 20:20 |
| ikt | because the first day sets the course for the rest of the month | 20:20 |
| ikt | and apologies for cutting this convo short I gotta head to sleep | 20:20 |
| Noskcaj | ok, good night | 20:23 |
| ikt | nights :) | 20:26 |
| ikt | ps. good to speak to someone in here for a change :D | 20:26 |
