[09:49] <jea> July 2013 Team Meeting
[09:50] <jea> http://loco.ubuntu.com/meetings/ubuntu-au/617/detail/
[09:50] <jea> #topic Brisbane Ubuntu Session
[09:51] <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 
[09:52] <jea> I have received a conference pack, which I will use to promote Ubuntu at the event
[09:53] <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?
[09:54] <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
[09:55] <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
[09:56] <jea> Welcome wy017 to Ubuntu Australia
[09:56] <noskcaj> Welcome wy017 
[09:57] <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?
[09:58] <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
[10:01] <jea> noskcaj: fixed now
[10:01] <noskcaj> :)
[10:03] <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
[10:04] <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
[10:05] <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
[10:06] <jea> Next meeting will be on August 11, 2013 at 8pm AEST

[10:07] <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
[10:08] <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?
[10:10] <jea> I can certainly get on to that
[10:10] <jea> wy017: what is the issue you are having? 
[10:12] <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
[10:13] <jea> It should be updated a bit
[10:16] <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
[10:17] <jea> laptop hotkeys can be hard to get working, because each keyboard has a different setup
[10:19] <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
[10:20] <hot_wheelz> jea it's more mapping right?
[10:20] <jea> I think so
[10:22] <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
[10:24] <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/
[10:25] <wy017> However the model I have isn't in the list
[10:25] <jea> not all models will be on the list
[10:27] <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
[10:28] <jea> yes, that is true
[10:29] <jea> Usually it is loaded automatically if the device is detected
[10:29] <jea> which version of ubuntu are you using?
[10:31] <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
[10:33] <wy017> I believe it's all up to date
[10:33] <hot_wheelz> jea, the system is running 3.8.0-26
[10:34] <jea> that sounds pretty new. I can't remember what is up to date though
[10:35] <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
[10:36] <jea> that should be fine
[10:38] <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?
[10:39] <hot_wheelz> why? just curious
[10:40] <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
[10:41] <hot_wheelz> We are both Vic based
[10:42] <hot_wheelz> thanks mate i'll pass it on
[10:42] <jea> cool
[10:43] <hot_wheelz> thanks again talk soon
[10:43] <jea> ok
[10:46] <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
[10:47] <noskcaj> I'm running 13.10, mostly because i'm stupid though
[10:48] <jea> that was in relation to the website
[11:07] <hot_wheelz> jea, 
[11:08] <jea> yep
[11:08] <hot_wheelz> how old was that article you sent me I could n't tell
[11:09] <jea> um, not sure
[11:09] <jea> ah, from 2011
[11:09] <jea> a bit old
[11:11] <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 
[11:12] <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?
[11:14] <hot_wheelz> not entirely sure it would also be worth raising a report to have patch included right?
[11:15] <jea> not for that one
[11:15] <hot_wheelz> i too  would have also thought it be included by now but clearly not
[11:16] <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
[11:19] <hot_wheelz> i'll keep you posted
[11:19] <jea> ok
[12:08] <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
[12:10] <jea> It is only Day 1 of this semester, so it can be used as soon as I get the event set up
[12:11] <jared> I can tell when real uni comes back, the hallways are busier.
[12:11] <jea> yeah, there would be a big change overnight
[20:18] <ikt> ubuntu edge
[20:18] <ikt> wish I had $600 so bad
[20:19] <Noskcaj> ditto
[20:20] <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
[20:23] <Noskcaj> ok, good night
[20:26] <ikt> nights :)
[20:26] <ikt> ps. good to speak to someone in here for a change :D
