[04:33] pleia2: is it fine if I create some test drafts on the fridge? not posting them at all, but will try to see if I can work out openid auth in the scripts [05:09] jose: go for it :) [05:09] and thanks! [05:16] pleia2: no worries. btw, do you have a minute? I'm stuck at some perl-y things [05:17] jose: I'm running in degraded mode (on my phone, no wifi at home at the moment, redoing networking) [05:18] pleia2: no prob then, good luck with all of that [05:18] I can help tomorrow once I'm back if you are still stuck :) [05:22] sure, I'll try to get around this today :) [05:22] thanks! [06:40] Nvidia version 304.88 is a little bit buggy when opening multiple windows and using my clipboard does anybody have any ideas? [13:49] Another glorious day here in Ubuntu-Land hope everybody has a great one...<<>> [14:13] working on the post for the change from approved to verified locoteams [14:45] posted [17:22] pleia2: UWN summaries done despite another very very low turnout this week :( [17:26] PaulW2U: thanks again for all your work, I think this week I'll send a note to all our current summary writers, we have like 40 on the list, some of whom have never participated [17:26] hopefully I can find some who just need some guidance [17:26] 40 ???? [17:27] heh, yeah [17:27] I should say, many of whom have never participated :) [17:27] I do a call for help, add them to the list, silence [17:27] emailing every week! [17:27] I sometimes see two or three on a Sunday but usually none on Saturday [17:27] * pleia2 nods [17:28] saturday is my day off, so I haven't kept a close watch on it lately [17:29] my husband is rewriging the home network, so I'm on [Dthe roof, lousy wifi here :) [17:29] errewiring too [17:30] on the roof? [17:30] * pleia2 is mostly staying out of his way so her sysadmin self doesn't grump about the network configuration [17:30] it's a roof deck, I live in a high rise [17:31] hey pleia2, have a min? couldn't get around the perl-y thing [17:32] jose: ask away :) [17:32] let me pastebin [17:36] pleia2: so, http://paste.ubuntu.com/6025788/ is for the openid auth. I have the $cgi variable, but it's not defined anywhere as my $cgi blah blah blah, and it gives me a global symbol error or something like that [17:37] any idea on how to get that fixed? [17:37] jose: why not define it? [17:39] because I don't know how [17:39] well, what is it? :) [17:39] looks like you pulled this script from somewhere else? [17:40] it definitely needs to be set at some point, either earlier in the script or by a script that includes this one [17:43] yeah, I did try to pull it and modify it [17:44] it's basically getting the check url so the users can login to the sso service and it gives a reply to the script [17:44] though I'm not quite sure if it'll work from a cli [17:44] so look at the original script and see where it defined it? or maybe it's an environment variable or something [17:45] ah yeah, that could be [17:45] in a web browser it's easier because it just hooks into lp, from cli you need to launch a browser [17:45] yeah [17:45] I'll see what I can do after lunch, thanks! [17:45] there are tools in ubuntu-land that do (ubuntu-bug) but they're mostly in python afaik [17:47] and what about porting the code to python? [17:47] I can try [17:47] that would be fine, I think nhandler went with perl because of the better regex handling (and these scripts do love regexes!) [17:48] I've seen that [17:49] well, time for lunch, talk to you in a while! [17:49] enjoy :) [17:50] pleia2: if anyone needs some guidance then akgraner's session at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TpaYsbRnteQ might be useful. It got me started :) [17:50] PaulW2U: ah, good call! thanks, I'll have a browse and include it in my email [22:59] hey, I think I need to get involved with the UWN again. Surely the process has changed some since I was involved so I'll need to be schooled a little. [23:00] luckily some names here are familiar - akgraner, nhandler, and pleia2 - hello again [23:08] scott_ev: hi there, we definitely need help with summary writing [23:16] PaulW2U: ok, what's the process? [23:16] is it something I can do during the week or is everything done on one day? I can work just about any time [23:17] take a look at http://bit.ly/vDkJyf. It's finished for this week but links are added during the week and summaries written at the weekend [23:18] also, a few members of my LoCo are looking for things to do to help as they are thinking about applying for ubuntu membership. I'll see if I can get some more help if needed. OK, I can start writing summaries on Sat. [23:20] w00t!! I made it into this week's edition!! haha; I'm famous [23:20] great. I've been very much on my own for the past few weeks with only pleia2 adding links and writing summaries [23:21] Also have a look at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/StyleGuidelines before you start writing [23:21] understood. we have our meeting tonight and I'll put the word out [23:22] You also might want to get on pleia2's mailing list so that you know when you can start writing summaries [23:22] welcome scott_ev :) [23:22] I may be able to convince a few volunteers that this is their best opportunity to start showing work outside of the LoCo [23:22] pleia2: good to see you again [23:22] I send an email every Friday night to everyone on my list of summary writers [23:22] it's been much too long [23:22] summaries are written Saturday - Sunday [23:22] so I can add you to that list of writers if you'd like :) [23:23] k, great. add j dot scott dot gwin at ubuntu to thaqt list [23:23] k [23:24] IIRC your nick is about princess leia and not the pleiadese (sp) system [23:24] right :) [23:24] nice, I still have some medium-term memory left [23:24] w00t [23:24] I do have a pleiades necklace though, given the similarity it's grown on me ;) [23:25] nice, it's a very important system according to many religion's cosmology [23:25] so I hear! [23:25] after many many years in meditation I can back up that sentiment === jono is now known as Guest52668 [23:26] if you look at my wiki you can see how lazy I've been for nearly 2 years. it was nice to drop back and be a generic end user but that got boring [23:27] hehe [23:27] well, we're glad to have you back [23:28] I nearly downloaded the whole net, watched and read everything - filled up a nas then quit being a leech [23:29] thanks, this will be fun. I'm amazed we ever got published back when it was me, johnc4510, and tyche [23:29] it's amazing you guys kept it going for so long with such a small team [23:29] and a few others - we did everything on sunday morning somehgow [23:29] * pleia2 nods [23:29] old guys rule!!! [23:30] haha [23:30] lol [23:30] actually, it's just sad that we had nothing better to do.... [23:30] but john was a great leader for quite a while [23:30] yeah [23:30] and nah, people love UWN, it's a worthy thing to spend time on :) [23:31] agreed [23:31] taking over the loco after john was more work than I had imagined [23:32] I bet [23:32] I think I just burned out from leading the loco, working with uwn, helping the local lug, etc. I was working more than I did before I retirede [23:32] hah [23:33] I'm looking fwd to being a participant again [23:36] and we look forward on having you on the team! [23:36] * jose waves [23:37] * scott_ev waves back - thanks [23:38] and I did that w/o a rotten trout! [23:39] haha
