pleia2hey knome00:20
knomehello pleia2 00:21
pleia2we should take this and s/mint/xubuntu http://spreadubuntu.org/en/material/poster/start-ubuntu-addis-announcement00:21
knomepleia2, for the flyer, or in addition?00:22
pleia2in addition00:22
pleia2this is a short term thing, probably easy00:22
pleia2just need to like two sentences and a screenshot and logo :)00:22
knomei can do the same without ubuntu and create an all-xubuntu look for it00:22
bluesabreknome is an over-achiever00:23
pleia2seems like a lot of work, and I do kind of like the ubuntu anchor (since people are starting to know what it is, or at least that it is)00:23
knomeor leave ubuntu for lesser role, without screenshots and stuff00:23
knomeubuntu or startubuntu?00:23
pleia2ubuntu00:23
knomeok, we can leave that00:23
knomei don't have problems creating a new page either though00:24
knomewondering what the source format is00:24
knomesla, so scribus00:24
knomei can do that.00:24
knomei guess my hidden thought is that once i've done one poster, we have a template for those00:25
pleia2I just think this is nice to get done real quick and out the door00:25
knomegive me the weekend, and i'll be ready with it00:25
pleia2I do still want the xubuntu one finished, but scale is only 3 weeks away now and I'm not sure I'll have time to print that00:25
knomedo you also want the "don't hesitate to write me..."00:27
pleia2knome: delete that, maybe replace with some kind of generic help link00:27
knomeok00:27
knomei'll be in touch with you at latest on monday with a draft00:28
knomeso letter and A4 ?00:28
pleia2yeah00:28
knomeoki00:28
pleia2good golly, http://www.ubuntu.com/support still lists lp answers00:28
knomebluesabre, me? :P00:28
pleia2imma file ze bug00:28
knomelol00:28
knomepleia2, if you have time, please write the text you want00:29
pleia2will do momentarily00:29
knomeno hurry, i can draft with the existing text00:29
knomebluesabre, this is something i do for clients, usually in an even tighter schedule...00:31
knome"can you do me a two-sided a4 broschure with our logos, the deadline is yesterday at noon"00:31
knomeand how can i say no to them? their money is so cute!00:32
* Unit193 votes for the Xubuntu branded one. :P00:32
bluesabrelol00:33
bluesabreyeah, but startubuntu can help spread the good word :)00:33
knomesure00:33
knomewe're not competing their flyer ;)00:35
knomeand i imagine there is people who wish to mostly advocate xubuntu00:36
knomeso who not do that, if there's nothing blocking that and it doesn't eat a lot of our time?00:36
knomeseriously, that looks like a 15-30minute task00:37
knomeand i don't need to even bend time to be able to send the pdf out yesterday! :P00:38
pleia2I plan on having this uploaded to spreadubuntu.org and sharing it right back with the startubuntu folks00:43
pleia2I've been involved in the thread developing it, the mint thing surprised me and no likey ;)00:43
pleia2mint ships things that aren't legal to ship in the US, so promoting it is not really my thing00:43
knomepromoting mint is not really my thing either00:44
pleia2now I need to stop looking at ubuntu.com, 2 bugs today is enough00:44
knomeeven if i don't think it's bad OS, nor do i have problems with their us-legal stuff00:45
knomepleia2, you ok to drop the startubuntu banner though?00:45
pleia2I dunno, I was thinking we keep it00:46
knomeoh bah00:46
knome:)00:46
knomepleia2, btw... slickymaster probably needs a shell.00:47
pleia2sure thing00:47
knomebut i'm off to sleep00:47
pleia2have a good night :)00:47
slickymasterwhatie?!00:47
knomeneed to wake up relatively early tomorrow00:47
knomeslickymaster, ha!00:47
knomenighty to you all as well :)00:47
pleia2slickymaster: want a shell account?00:47
knomepleia2, psst, he doesn't know he needs it!00:47
pleia2the server only randomly reboots every month or so :)00:48
pleia2haha00:48
slickymasterI don't even know what are you talking about :)00:48
pleia2it's how forestpiskie stays on the ircs all the time!00:48
knomeand bluesabre 00:48
bluesabreyup00:48
slickymasterhmm, a shell account in what?00:48
knomeslickymaster, in pleia2's server you silly one.00:49
knomeslickymaster, you could run an irc client that's on all the time, so we could poke you all day long.00:49
* slickymaster has to read the logs before asking :P00:49
pleia2I have a community server set up to give people shell accounts on and host various ubuntu projects (and things like files for our wallpaper contest)00:49
bluesabrethanks for your help with that, pleia200:49
knomeyes, thank you!00:49
knomeslickymaster, there's no logs about it :D00:50
knomeslickymaster, i just set you up!00:50
slickymasterI mean on the -dev channel00:50
knomei'm lost but that's ok00:50
knomeoff to bed :)00:51
slickymasterwell, during work hours I'm behind a proxy00:51
pleia2ah00:51
pleia2so you'd need to get out on port 2200:51
* Unit193 wonders if pleia2 has ssh listening on any fun ports.00:51
knomeslickymaster, could still run a shell, and have all backlog ready waiting for you00:51
Unit193Ah, guess not.00:51
pleia2Unit193: nope00:51
knomebut... meh00:51
slickymasterso there's no way I can get a connection with anything  besides using 8080 port00:51
knomenow i'm going ->00:52
pleia2night knomey00:52
slickymasterwell, knome's got a point there00:52
Unit193Not even 443 or 53?00:52
Unit193knome: Good night.00:52
pleia2Unit193: no :)00:52
slickymasterhave a good one knome 00:52
pleia2makes me feel icky00:52
Unit193pleia2: No, I meant slickymaster being able to access.  If you don't have it nor want it that fine, just seems weird what he can't/can access.00:53
pleia2I know, I meant running it on other ports makes me feel icky ;)00:53
* pleia2 crosses arms00:54
pleia2it's not right00:54
pleia2:)00:54
slickymasterI do see your point pleia2 00:54
Unit193pleia2: I don't run mine on 22. :D00:54
Unit193(Not to get around a firewall either.)00:54
slickymasterotoh my work hours are just a third of my day00:55
NoskcajSo my pc was stuck at a black screen when i got back from school. Maybe blueman does leak05:03
Unit193TTY?05:04
Unit193The plan is to seed the wallpapers?06:45
knomeUnit193, yeeeees08:13
Unit193Hrm.08:13
elfyknome: saw backlog - ta08:13
knomeelfy, np08:14
Unit19323M Jan 29 15:25 /var/www/ext/xubuntu-community-wallpapers_14.04.0_all.deb so might want to downsize/compress/etc.08:14
knomeyeah, i thought about it, but otoh... meh08:14
knometalk with ochosi 08:14
Unit193I have been in contact.08:14
knomeand the answer is? ;)08:16
Unit193Didn't ask that, only saw the seeding after he went to sleep.08:17
Noskcajknome, From what i understand, xkb-plugin 0.7 just makes it work properly with srttings 4.1108:17
pmjdebruijn2560x1600 would be a nice target resolution :)08:17
Noskcajpmjdebruijn, 4k or nothing08:18
Noskcaj;)08:18
Noskcajbut yeah08:18
Unit193pmjdebruijn: http://paste.openstack.org/show/t3EPJUQU1O7bf0ROllKl08:18
pmjdebruijnwell08:18
pmjdebruijnso there are two wallpaper which is silly large08:18
pmjdebruijnare*08:18
Unit193knome: Want to fix on the wiki or no?08:19
pmjdebruijnwhat are the largest resolution displays atm 3200xsomething08:19
knomeUnit193, ochosi: i guess we could look into making gavin ashes submissions a bit smaller08:19
knomeUnit193, wiki in what sense?08:19
Unit193https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/Roadmap/Specifications/Trusty/CommunityWallpapers/Winners ?08:20
knomewhat's to fix?08:20
Unit193Make smaller? :P08:20
knomeah bleh08:20
knomei'll confirm with ochosi that it's fine to drop the resolution08:21
knomebut i guess it is08:21
ochosioh yes08:21
knomeeverything to 2560x *08:21
ochosiwell if pmjdebruijn is fine with dropping the size, i think we can do it ;)08:21
knome?08:21
ochosiyeah08:22
knomethinking whether we should make an exception for traslasierra, but probably not08:22
elfyochosi: call for settings testing went out today - light-locker is included in that08:22
ochosithanks a bunch elfy 08:22
knomeochosi, soooooo... should i do the resizing?08:23
ochosiknome: for multi-monitor you mean with spanning ?08:23
knomeochosi, i don't know what i mean. ;)08:23
ochosiwell that would be one reason to keep it larger08:23
ochosii don't know what the next-bigger standard resolution is though08:23
knomei guess we should just resize all to 2560x08:23
knomesources are always available08:24
ochosibtw, there is still a little banding in the picture08:24
ochosiguess i'll contact adrian again...08:24
knomeawwh08:24
ochosiwell it's a lot better already08:24
knomefix it for good or i'll drop it! :P08:24
ochosipmjdebruijn: see what you did to me when we talked about banding?08:24
pmjdebruijnochosi: :)08:25
pmjdebruijnbtw the guy I mailed never replied08:25
knomeochosi, rather cut solitude from the top?08:27
knomeochosi, or bottom?08:27
knomeochosi, or the same amount from both08:27
pmjdebruijnI've tried solitude on my netbook08:28
pmjdebruijncutting from teh bottom works best in my opinion08:28
pmjdebruijn16:1008:28
knomeotoh the bottom part is what's on focus...08:28
knomeochosi, waiting for your opinion08:29
knomeochosi, btw, i need to go relatively soon, so...08:31
knomeochosi, also, bleh, traslasierra file info says: Software: Adobe Photoshop CC08:34
Unit193Shhh, just remove that or else we'll have that one bug all over again! :P08:35
knomedidn't ubuntu have that for their default wallpaper once?08:35
Unit193lp 35721808:35
ubottuLaunchpad bug 357218 in ubuntu-wallpapers (Ubuntu) "Ubuntu wallpaper called warty-final-ubuntu.png is made with Adobe Photoshop CS3 Macintosh" [Low,Invalid] https://launchpad.net/bugs/35721808:35
knomeanyhow, i don't think it's a big thing to have something on the community wallpapers done with non-linux08:36
knomeit's *community* wallpapers08:36
Unit193Yep.08:36
knomewhere's that simon again08:37
knomeelfy, when have you planned to call for exploratory testing?08:42
knomeUnit193, did you have an idea for attributing translators?08:43
Unit193Not really thought about it.08:44
knomecan you?08:45
Unit193https://unit193.net/xubuntu/en_US/ln-idp21533444.html ?08:48
knomethat's as far as my thoughts go, but how do we technically do it?08:48
knomeif we use the launchpad-translators string, it's going to be formatted ugly08:49
knomeokay, i need to run08:50
Unit193Run fast!08:50
knomei'm afraid i have to do that08:50
knomesee you later!08:50
Unit193Either way need to get slick in there.08:51
ochosisorry, coffee and breakfast stopped me back there08:54
Unit193Don't be sorry for that...08:55
ochosiyeah, well actually i would've become grumpy very soon otherwise08:55
ochosi:>08:55
ochosiknome: i'll check them out and give you my opinion in the course of the next hours08:56
ochosibtw, bubbles also has photoshop in the metadata08:56
ochosii personally suggest we drop all the original metadata and replace it with author-name and "xubuntu community wallpaper contest" in the comment08:57
ochosiand the rest goes08:57
Unit193And, is that wikipage going to be the source url?  Upload a tarball to there or just send one to me if it's handy. :D08:58
ochosiyup, will do08:59
ochosiknome: ok, i offered gavin ash to resize the wallpapers himself. he has been quite responsive so far, so i expect an answer until tomorrow09:15

slickymasterknome: you around?12:08
brainwashochosi: indicator-power cannot be configured via xfce4-power-manager (show icon always, if battery is present, never)12:12
ochosibrainwash: yeah, ofc12:12
brainwashok12:12
brainwashI cannot test it12:13
ochosimy patch only allows you to open the settings from the indicator12:13
brainwashoh12:13
ochosiwhat you suggest is much more complex, would mean accessing the whitelist of the indicator-plugin12:13
brainwashdoes it require gnome-settings-daemon?12:13
ochosi(maybe not much more complex, but still)12:13
ochosino12:13
brainwashthe mentioned setting can be changed via gnome-control-center or gconf-editor/gsettings12:14
brainwashxubuntu users would need to use the 2nd way12:14
brainwashpeople usually don't like if settings gets hidden, that's the reason I mentioned it12:17
ochosiwell they can easily hide the battery-indicator with the indicator-plugin settings12:30
ochosiit's just not as finegrain12:30
ochosiand if they want that, they can use the trayicon for now12:30
elfyknome: I haven't 13:22
elfyprobably not going to now13:22
elfyknome: in fact I've postponed it 13:40
ochosiknome: adrian, one of the wallpaper-winners, asked why we don't go for 2880x1800px as final resolution (that's the resolution of the macbook pro retina), but for 2560x160016:36
ochosii personally don't have a strong opinion on this matter16:36
ochosiand i don16:36
ochosit think that we have that many macbook pro retina users (well, also, they'll have more troubling toolkit problems than just a slightly fuzzy wallpaper)16:37
ochosifrom a scaling pov, there's no problem, both resolutions have a ratio of 1.616:40
ochosiand i think we have all (or most) wallpapers in big-enough size16:41
ochosiso yeah, frankly i don't really care :>16:41
ochosiali1234: i hope you don't mind that i just pinged tedg. thought maybe it helps if more than one person ping him about indicators16:43
ali1234i don't mind at all16:43
ochosidoesn't seem like i'm getting any answers either though16:53
ochosiali1234: wanna join the discussion?16:58
ochosiseems like a good time16:59
elfylderan: get any further with that a/p list than the one I saw the other day? 18:29
lderanelfy, not yet, will be working on it this evening & tomorrow :)18:30
elfyok :)18:30
elfypersonally I think that if we manage to get this stuff working for Unreal Unicorn we (or rather those who did it) have done well]18:31
* lderan hopes that is the name of the 14.10 release18:32
elfyha ha ha 18:33
elfyit won't be - except in my head 18:33
lderanand now in mine 18:33
elfymy work is done ... 18:37
elfyhi Noskcaj - updates brought the -admins back now - cheers19:07
Noskcajno problem. I screwed up pretty badly on that one19:07
elfywell - stuff happens - it's in what happens afterwards that makes the difference 19:08
elfyno-one's perfect - apart from forestpiskie 19:08
elfyit'd have been a bigger issue at the end of April - why we test and look at things :)19:09
brainwashNoskcaj: regarding users-admin, do you thing we could replace the outdated group "admin" with the "sudo" group?19:22
brainwashsee http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/trusty/gnome-system-tools/trusty/view/head:/src/users/user-profiles.conf.in19:22
NoskcajI can't see why not, but this would have to be an ubuntu wide change19:23
brainwashright, it's distribution specific19:23
brainwashcurrently looking for the bug report19:24
brainwashthis one is fixed now I guess bug 127330519:24
