Harsh | hi | 11:51 |
---|---|---|
Harsh | I want to use ubuntu for Thin Client | 11:52 |
Harsh | so is there any special edition for it | 11:52 |
Harsh | in ubuntu | 11:52 |
belkinsa | Please ask in #ubuntu, it's our support channel. | 15:32 |
belkinsa | jose, just a thought, you think that organizing a global release party(ies) over the Hangouts on Air as the Ubuntu On Air account would be a be better that a team doing one since the Canada LoCO failed at doing it (and also forgetting the others in the Hangout)? | 18:13 |
jose | belkinsa: that's what I'm planning on doing for 14.10 | 18:14 |
jose | needs scheduling, though | 18:14 |
belkinsa | Ah. | 18:14 |
belkinsa | And maybe knowing what to do for one. | 18:14 |
jose | yep | 18:14 |
* belkinsa has a urge to help! | 18:15 | |
jose | we still have plenty of time :) | 18:19 |
jose | being a holiday here makes it difficult for me to be busy, even though I'm trying to | 18:19 |
BobJonkman1 | Hi all: I'm sorry the Hangout went badly. | 18:20 |
belkinsa | I know. And there is more important stuff to deal with. | 18:20 |
belkinsa | It's cool, BobJonkman1. It was first run type of thing. | 18:20 |
jose | BobJonkman1: it was pretty good for something improvised at uonair.com :) | 18:21 |
BobJonkman1 | Things I learned: There needs to be a Hangout producer who is on a reliable Internet connection | 18:21 |
belkinsa | I think this Hangouts thing is still new all of us. | 18:21 |
BobJonkman1 | I didn't realize that when the organizer lost the Hangout connection the whole thing would shut down. | 18:21 |
belkinsa | Same. | 18:21 |
belkinsa | Oh, jose: has jono set a date for the brainstorm session yet? | 18:22 |
BobJonkman1 | Another thing I learned: There needs to be an organized activity. People came into the Hangout and just stared. Not much of a party. | 18:22 |
belkinsa | For the vUDS. | 18:22 |
jose | belkinsa: not yet | 18:22 |
belkinsa | BobJonkman1, well, there was no topics to talk about. | 18:22 |
jose | BobJonkman1: it's some stuff we've all been learning in the way :) | 18:22 |
BobJonkman1 | After I came home I had a nice conversation with Artur F. , but it was just the two of us. | 18:23 |
belkinsa | Also not having a mic that has the "press-to talk thing". | 18:23 |
jose | I learnt that I have to have an organized and well-lit background, my first ubuntu on air session my background was terrible | 18:23 |
BobJonkman1 | Another thing I learned: Can't have two computers in the same location because one computer | 18:24 |
BobJonkman1 | One computer's sound feeds back into the other computer. | 18:24 |
jose | well, you technically can, just mute one of the computers and get video input from both, but audio from just one | 18:24 |
BobJonkman1 | So, in a large party environment it's best to have a separate camera and a good mic on one computer | 18:24 |
belkinsa | Or a phone with backfacing cam | 18:25 |
BobJonkman1 | jose: That doesn't work; Hangout won't focus on you if your mic is muted. | 18:25 |
jose | ooooh, that's right! | 18:25 |
belkinsa | Carp. | 18:26 |
belkinsa | Maybe bring in a USB web cam? | 18:26 |
BobJonkman1 | And it only suppresses the sound for your own connection, so the other computer still outputs the sound from the first, still causing feedbac | 18:26 |
BobJonkman1 | belkinsa: I did have another webcam with me, worked successfully (but after Jeff lost the connection and the Hangout had closed) | 18:27 |
belkinsa | Oh. | 18:27 |
BobJonkman1 | But, in spite of everything, I'd like to try a Virtual Release Party again for 14.10 | 18:29 |
belkinsa | I would too but I think mutliple ones through out the day would work. | 18:30 |
belkinsa | Different hosts though/ | 18:30 |
jose | that may work, the problem is that the ubuntu on air team is not that big | 18:31 |
jose | we'll have to figure out how to do it | 18:32 |
belkinsa | Maybe import some help for speakers? | 18:32 |
jose | or if I have to stay up for 24h with a box of monster next to me | 18:32 |
jose | may be, but we'll see how the situation develops | 18:32 |
belkinsa | lol | 18:32 |
belkinsa | Sure, that works. | 18:32 |
BobJonkman1 | Multiple hour-long hangouts will also be easier to watch afterwards | 18:33 |
belkinsa | Yes. | 18:33 |
