teward | Nothing_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_guy | I 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 problem | 13:06 |
average_guy | guess i done w/testdrive as i cannot trust that it pulls the correct img | 13:07 |
=== chihchun_afk is now known as chihchun | ||
average_guy | I filed it as a bug against testdrive 1352905, but maybe the problem is zsync? | 14:01 |

meecoder | Hello! | 18:23 |
balloons | howdy meecoder | 18:28 |
meecoder | I'm getting started with testing Ubuntu now, downloading VirtualBox and the testing iso. | 18:30 |
average_guy | welcome meecoder, more=merrier | 18:33 |
meecoder | Sadly, I have very slow internet. Incredibly slow. | 18:36 |
average_guy | check this out then my friend: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ZsyncCdImage | 18:38 |
meecoder | Just 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 |
meecoder | Or should I wait two weeks until I go back home and can use my Ubuntu laptops? | 18:47 |
average_guy | well technically you wouldn't even need to install Ubuntu I would think. I sometimes test iso's from vbox on Windows host | 18:47 |
meecoder | Okay, can I use the zsync files on Mac? If so how? | 18:49 |
average_guy | nope, zsync is a linux program. If you stay OSX will have to http download the iso | 18:50 |
meecoder | I'll use zsync when I get home so I can use my linux computers, for now it's http(=slow) | 18:53 |
average_guy | zsync is no help the first time, but everytime thereafter is only grabs the parts that have changed so less bandwidth overall | 18:54 |
balloons | right.. 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 comfortable | 18:55 |
average_guy | ^ the boss (I think) | 18:56 |
meecoder | I saw you on the wiki! | 18:59 |
meecoder | I 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 |
balloons | meecoder, google fiber sounds lovely :-) and it sounds like you have all the tools to test effectively | 19:03 |

stgraber | all current images were bad, a new batch is building now | 21:36 |
stgraber | I expect the first ones to show up in ~5min | 21:36 |
meecoder | should I redownload after that? | 21:37 |
stgraber | yes | 21:37 |
meecoder | How do I know when it is done? | 21:38 |
stgraber | queuebot will announce them as they show up | 21:39 |
stgraber | or just look at iso.qa.ubuntu.com | 21:39 |
meecoder | ok thanks | 21:39 |
quantibility | hello | 21:39 |

quantibility | tester and pushing myself to program | 21:40 |
quantibility | its been a long time since i touched it | 21:41 |
quantibility | my problem now is this dang panel i wanna reprogram it really | 21:41 |
quantibility | no offense but its problem matic on this and other linux distros i have trid | 21:42 |
meecoder | for more information about what we do https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam | 21:42 |
meecoder | ubuntu development is at #ubuntu-devel i think | 21:42 |
quantibility | however 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 it | 21:44 |
quantibility | its like i have to reinstall whole system to get it fixed | 21:44 |
quantibility | so | 21:45 |
quantibility | as a "tester" / user i wanna let ya know that this bug with the panel is pain the keester | 21:45 |
quantibility | i wanna reprogram the whole darn thing | 21:46 |
meecoder | Go to Launchpad to report and work on bugs. launchpad.net/ubuntu | 21:46 |
quantibility | im using xubunt | 21:46 |
quantibility | u | 21:46 |
quantibility | da faq is launch pad? | 21:46 |
meecoder | Launchpad is where Ubuntu is developed. | 21:47 |
quantibility | ohhhhhhhh sorry | 21:48 |
quantibility | btw im an old irc'er, im 35, at about 10 to 11 i been on the net,.. | 21:48 |
quantibility | i programmed my first basic at 11 | 21:49 |
quantibility | known about IRC since 11 although i used Mric as my main client till you had to pay for it | 21:49 |
meecoder | if you want to work on problems with Ubuntu or versions of it you might want to look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/HelpingWithBugs | 21:49 |
elfy | quantibility: is this a bug with 14.04 or 14.10 ? specific to xubuntu - http://xubuntu.org/contribute/ | 21:50 |
elfy | if you want to help with testing xubuntu - then I am positive you'd get your hand snatched off ;) | 21:51 |
quantibility | well, see the thing is its PANEL its self, i was using another distro | 21:51 |
quantibility | same problem arouse | 21:51 |
quantibility | lay off the "ubuntu" "xbuntu" user battle, im talking linux | 21:52 |
elfy | ok - so which version of xubuntu is it | 21:52 |
quantibility | can't you just like ask irc what version im using? | 21:53 |
quantibility | i was using solusOS | 21:53 |
quantibility | same dang thing | 21:53 |
elfy | ok - xfce? | 21:53 |
quantibility | actually im more interested in the core. | 21:53 |
quantibility | xfce yes | 21:53 |
elfy | in which case check https://bugzilla.xfce.org | 21:54 |
elfy | if it's in xfce then xubuntu won't be in a position to do much, but people that work with xubuntu work with xfce | 21:54 |
elfy | and 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 thanks | 21:55 |
quantibility | yeah 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 |
quantibility | basically 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 fly | 22:00 |
rbasak | pitti: have you considered using cache=unsafe in adt-virt-qemu? I wonder if it would speed things up. | 22:57 |
sn33zy | im bored and don't know what to do. does anyone have a task or something that needs done? | 23:05 |
