tewardNothing_Much, thanks, however, I found the daily ISOs location, hopefully the daily ISO installs and I don't have to do a Trusty -> Utopic upgrade by hand...00:06

average_guyI can use testdrive or zsync, I lean towards testdrive because end user want GUI.  I just noticed though that if I zsync the utopic-daily-server img it faults where they all fault atm, but if I hit sync in testdrive and launch, it runs w/no problem13:06
average_guyguess i done w/testdrive as i cannot trust that it pulls the correct img13:07

average_guyI filed it as a bug against testdrive 1352905, but maybe the problem is zsync?14:01

meecoderHello!18:23
balloonshowdy meecoder18:28
meecoderI'm getting started with testing Ubuntu now, downloading VirtualBox and the testing iso.18:30
average_guywelcome meecoder, more=merrier18:33
meecoderSadly, I have very slow internet. Incredibly slow.18:36
average_guycheck this out then my friend: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ZsyncCdImage18:38
meecoderJust a question: I have a Mac(running Mac OS.) I am using it for testing, should I install Ubuntu in a virtual machine and then use testdrive in it, or should I install it on the computer?)18:42
meecoderOr should I wait two weeks until I go back home and can use my Ubuntu laptops?18:47
average_guywell technically you wouldn't even need to install Ubuntu I would think.  I sometimes test iso's from vbox on Windows host18:47
meecoderOkay, can I use the zsync files on Mac? If so how?18:49
average_guynope, zsync is a linux program. If you stay OSX will have to http download the iso18:50
meecoderI'll use zsync when I get home so I can use my linux computers, for now it's http(=slow)18:53
average_guyzsync is no help the first time, but everytime thereafter is only grabs the parts that have changed so less bandwidth overall18:54
balloonsright.. meecoder you can certainly install ubuntu in a VM, and for the first few tries I'd recommend it so you know what to expect and are comfortable18:55
average_guy^ the boss (I think)18:56
meecoderI saw you on the wiki!18:59
meecoderI still wish I was in Kansas City, I could get Google Fiber. That would improve the speed of downloading Ubuntu. and balloons: I have used ubuntu many times before, just not the testing version.19:01
balloonsmeecoder, google fiber sounds lovely :-) and it sounds like you have all the tools to test effectively19:03

quantibilityits been a long time since i touched it21:41
quantibilitymy problem now is this dang panel i wanna reprogram it really21:41
quantibilityno offense but its problem matic on this and other linux distros i have trid21:42
meecoderfor more information about what we do https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam21:42
meecoderubuntu development is at #ubuntu-devel i think21:42
quantibilityhowever i do realize i have a computer that i,m pretty sure has a few interesting hardware and special issues with it. though i don't see why i has this freaking problem of losing the dang buttons and having everything slide over to the right... and no easy way that i have found so far to fix it21:44
quantibilityits like i have to reinstall whole system to get it fixed21:44
quantibilityso21:45
quantibilityas a "tester" / user i wanna let ya know that this bug with the panel is pain the keester21:45
quantibilityi wanna reprogram the whole darn thing21:46
meecoderGo to Launchpad to report and work on bugs. launchpad.net/ubuntu21:46
quantibilityim using xubunt21:46
quantibilityu21:46
quantibilityda faq is launch pad?21:46
meecoderLaunchpad is where Ubuntu is developed.21:47
quantibilityohhhhhhhh sorry21:48
quantibilitybtw im an old irc'er, im 35, at about 10 to 11 i been on the net,..21:48
quantibilityi programmed my first basic at 1121:49
quantibilityknown about IRC since 11 although i used Mric as my main client till you had to pay for it21:49
meecoderif you want to work on problems with Ubuntu or versions of it you might want to look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/HelpingWithBugs21:49
elfyquantibility: is this a bug with 14.04 or 14.10 ? specific to xubuntu - http://xubuntu.org/contribute/21:50
elfyif you want to help with testing xubuntu - then I am positive you'd get your hand snatched off ;)21:51
quantibilitywell, see the thing is its PANEL its self, i was using another distro21:51
quantibilitysame problem arouse21:51
quantibilitylay off the "ubuntu" "xbuntu" user battle, im talking linux21:52
elfyok - so which version of xubuntu is it21:52
quantibilitycan't you just like ask irc what version im using?21:53
quantibilityi was using solusOS21:53
quantibilitysame dang thing21:53
elfyok - xfce?21:53
quantibilityactually im more interested in the core.21:53
quantibilityxfce yes21:53
elfyin which case check https://bugzilla.xfce.org21:54
elfyif it's in xfce then xubuntu won't be in a position to do much, but people that work with xubuntu work with xfce21:54
elfyand as far as a 'battle' there is none - but ubuntu issues and xubuntu issues are NOT the same - and I've enough on my plate with xubuntu without worrying about ubuntu thanks21:55
quantibilityyeah thats why im interested in linux core.. i think its too big and that processing information can be simplified... so much so i think you can cut core size a third with even more versatility and less issues...21:57
quantibilitybasically with so many libraries in existence and access to the internet being so readily available, you can build your system on the fly.. basically you need one big library of api locations and once called stored on the fly22:00
rbasakpitti: have you considered using cache=unsafe in adt-virt-qemu? I wonder if it would speed things up.22:57
sn33zyim bored and don't know what to do.  does anyone have a task or something that needs done?23:05
