sgo11hi, I am using 14.04 beta1. The known issue says it does not support nvidia-prime. Then how can I use nvidia driver without prime support? I tried to sudo apt-get install nvidia-331. it automatically installs nvidia-prime for me, then I can not enter my system. what should I do to use nvidia driver only and run 14.04? thanks.11:22
sgo11I failed to find an option to disable optimus in BIOS.11:22

amjjawadI just realized that we have totally forgot the Slide show topic :/14:57
aldomannoh, I srtongly believed that UI freeze was 27th of this month14:58
amjjawadaldomann, sorry, it seems my other machine is about to die too :'(15:00
aldomannsorry to hear that15:01
amjjawadsuddenly black screen O_o15:01
amjjawad<aldomann> oh, I srtongly believed that UI freeze was 27th of this month15:02
amjjawadhmmmmm15:02
amjjawadnow, we're about to lose each other as friends :P :P :P :P :P15:02
amjjawadhahaha15:02
amjjawadaldomann, I did add that on this blueprint for a good reason, mate :D15:03
amjjawadhttps://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntugnome-brainstorming/+spec/artwork-trusty-tahr15:03
amjjawadso that you and everyone else keep in mind the freeze is 1315:03
amjjawaddon't believe me? :P okay :D https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TrustyTahr/ReleaseSchedule15:04
aldomannyeah, somehow I thought it was on 27th. I even wrote that on my calendar15:04
aldomannmy fault, of course15:04
amjjawadhmmm15:05
amjjawaddo I need to send you white tea? :P15:06
amjjawadno problem, it happens ;)15:06
amjjawadso, can we finish this ASAP? let's work me and you on the slide show as I'm not too happy with it15:06
aldomannokay, what do we have to change?15:07
amjjawadproblem is, we haven't yet submitted the proposal for LTS :(15:09
amjjawadso, the slide show should reflect that15:09
amjjawaduntil now, we're not LTS15:09
amjjawadso, in order to move forward without waiting, let's review all the slides once more and change the very last one and in case we shall go LTS for Trusty, that can be added later15:11
amjjawadagree?15:11
aldomannokay, shall we discuss this via e-mail?15:12
amjjawadremind me please, how can I see the last slide now?15:14
aldomannhttps://github.com/aldomann/ubuntu-gnome-ubiquity15:15
aldomannclone the repo and launch test-slideshow.sh15:15
amjjawadBut i just want to see the last one15:16
amjjawadany screenshot for that?15:16
aldomanngive me a sec15:17
amjjawadtake mins ;)15:20
aldomanndamn, my screenshot key doesn't work15:21
amjjawadyour system?15:21
aldomannyep15:22
aldomannhttp://cl.ly/image/2z0n3i14430S15:23
amjjawadI was asking what system do you use?15:23
aldomann? UG of course15:23
amjjawadI noticed that the Prt Scr is not working too15:24
aldomannI swear it did yesterday15:24
amjjawadthanks for the link, I will keep it and have a look at it15:24
amjjawadfirst note on the last slide: are we going to use the same background picture?15:29
amjjawadif yes, then definitely the color of the links should be different15:29
amjjawad2nd note: if these links are clickable, then I guess it is better to hide the link behind the word and no need to show the whole link15:30
aldomannon the 2nd note: I'm not sure people will actually be able to click on those and15:32
aldomann*whilst they are installing their system15:32
amjjawadIIRC, other flavors have clickable links15:33
aldomannI also think it doesn't look quite nice, but in that way they can write the link down15:33
amjjawadwrite the link down? hmm, not sure if that is happening nowadays ;)15:33
amjjawadI'm actually thinking to also include a link for the release notes15:34
aldomannyep, but since it's the last slide, are they really going to click them?15:34
amjjawadusually, the last one is the most important one if you ask me15:34
aldomannyeah, maybe it's just me the doesn't read anything15:34
aldomannhehehe15:34
amjjawadI was thinking months ago to include all these links 'inside' the system15:34
amjjawadif we can add that as bookmarks on Firefox, that would be super great ...15:35
aldomannyeah, they'd definitely make more sense if they were in some kind of first-launch tutorial15:35
amjjawadnot really like Mint when you will be introduced by a splash screen ... very Windows style to me :D15:36
aldomannoh, that's a good point15:36
amjjawadI'm sure Tim can do that ... it would help a lot15:36
amjjawadMyself, Ivan and James have done a lot for the Wiki Pages. I'm very interested to include the HOWTO Install Ubuntu GNOME as a bookmark as well15:37
amjjawadIt is also good to check the other flavors and see how they're doing it ... for the slides or the bookmarks :)15:37
aldomannyeah15:37
amjjawadI was also thinking to include the names of the people behind Ubuntu GNOME as a credit for them and kind of well deserved appreciations15:38
=== makije is now known as makije|away
amjjawadmaybe the easiest way is a bookmark for WhoWeAre page15:38
aldomannyes, I've just checked out and we already ship lots of 'Mozilla' and 'Ubuntu and free software' bookmarjs15:40
aldomannso another folder containing Ubuntu GNOME related ones would be fine15:40
amjjawadindeed15:40
amjjawadsigh, yet another email that I have to write :P15:40
amjjawadI will take 6 months vacation after Trusty :P hahaha15:41
amjjawadyou know what makes me happy and full of hope? that we're addressing the mistakes we're doing at the same time :D it is not taking us long time to address that and as long as we're taking notes of these mistakes, we will sure be better by time. It is a young community and nothing is perfect. I see a huge success and future for Ubuntu GNOME15:42
aldomannI cannot agree more, my friend.15:43
amjjawad:D15:44
amjjawadBe nice to the suggestion of facebook :D15:44
aldomannArtwork is a "easy" task, and with the right plannification it'll be a piece of cake next release.15:44
amjjawadI think I will leave for a while and come back later15:44
amjjawadI have already tons of ideas for the next release15:45
aldomannno problem, mate15:45
amjjawadjust now ... I'm thinking of a wiki page for the possible 'next' to-do stuff for next cycle15:45
amjjawadI don't want to add that to the blueprints area so people won't get confused15:46
amjjawadI guess I will create that page :D15:46
amjjawadaldomann, be the first :D15:54
