ubottuxfce bug 11306 in General "Incorrect default app shown in file context menu with glib >= 2.41" [Minor,Resolved: fixed] https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1130607:47
ochosimorning folks08:28
* ochosi is still travelling today08:28
Unit193Yey!08:31
ochosi:)08:33
ochosiwill be back tomorrow or the latest wednesday though08:33
ochosire: docs, fwiw i agree, making the css more responsive is sufficient10:49
ochosiand even that doesn't seem crucial to me10:49
ochosiprimarily, people are going to read/access the docs on the device they need it for10:49
knomethat would be relatively easy, so..10:49
slickymasterWorkbut it's a great idea, and something we could/should try10:50
ochosii don't think many will take it with them on their holidays10:50
ochosion their ebook reader10:50
slickymasterWorklol, that hardcore one just might ochosi ;)10:50
knomeconverting to more formats we have to is just more work10:50
ochosiexactly10:50
knomeso not sure if it's worth the maintaining10:50
ochosiwith dubious benefit10:50
knomehow many ebook readers are there which can't load a webpage?10:50
knomekindle?10:51
knomethat's it?10:51
* ochosi doesn't have an ebook reader10:51
slickymasterWorkneither do I10:51
knomeme neither10:51
knome"dave" on the mailing list said he accesses the docs on kindle or nexus7, when he couldn't access them online10:51
Unit193The message from Dave is worth reading, and as long as you don't want me to make it more pretty than it is, I have a functional epub. :P10:52
knomeso one aspect of that is, i guess, being offline and not having access to the computer (because it's broken)10:52
* slickymasterWork hasn't received that message yet10:52
ochosiknome: but i thought we cover that with offline docs already?10:52
knomeochosi, yes, but note my note (pun not intended) about not having access to the computer (because it's "broken") and thus wanting to read the docs in the first place10:53
knomebut, corner case10:53
knomei would definitely say the whole ebook stuff is a corner case10:53
ochosiyup10:54
knomei would be much more interesting in considering a PDF format10:54
ochosi+110:54
slickymasterWorkand eventually with a potential scarce audience10:54
knomebut getting that in the shape i want to...10:54
ochosican we maybe export the html to pdf in a sensible way?10:54
knomewe can export the docbook markup to pdf directly afaik10:54
knomebut that doesn't mean it'll look good10:55
slickymasterWorkI think that what the former ubuntu manual team used to fo10:55
slickymasterWorks/fo/do10:55
knomethere should be some kind of automatic intelligence that is able to recognize orphan rows, for example10:55
slickymasterWorkwe could ask godbyk about it10:56
knomenah10:56
knomei can just look for it10:56
Unit193Ask the docs lead.10:56
ochosianyway, i would agree it's not really our highest priority10:56
knomeadded a work item10:57
ochosidoing the css part makes sense though10:57
knomeyep10:57
ochosidoes our website work with smaller devices in general?10:57
knomeochosi, no10:57
slickymasterWorknot on my Samsung10:57
knomeochosi, it has some very simple responsive design applied to it currently10:57
knomethe docs is different10:57
knomethat's so much easier to make responsive10:58
ochosifrom my pov, that would have a larger target audience than just the docs10:58
ochosibut still low priority10:58
knomesure, that's a work item for me already as well10:58
ochosiat least as long as xubuntu isn't available/usable for tablets ;)10:58
knomei've been thinking about it when i've had time along the way10:58
ochosi</sarcasm>10:58
knomei wouldn't want xubuntu on my tablets, i rather put my plate on it10:59
knome:PPP10:59
ochosiwhoa10:59
ochosi:]10:59

bluesabremaybe that should have been more of a "bbl"11:52
elfydkessel: looking at this bluetooth testcase bug - right click's not working here for me 16:49
dkesselelfy: mh ok maybe some old settings on my machine17:21
elfyI had to start bluetooth - all turned off here, left click on the bluetooth in settings did nothing - can't even get it on the panel to check there17:22
elfyI assume you're not left=handed and swapped the buttons 17:22
knomeslickymasterWork, ochosi: the docs branch is updated with a responsive CSS file and some other improvements (see commit message and changelog for more information)18:09
elfyI'll say thanks - I'm sure it'll be good for us :)18:10
knomenp :)18:10
knomeelfy, you can test it yourself too; get the branch, then open the documentation in a browser and strecth the window to be really narrow :)18:11
elfymmm18:11
elfyyou'd have to point me to the branch :)18:11
knomebzr branch lp:xubuntu-docs18:12
elfyknome: replicating a phone? is this what this is aimed at?18:12
knomewell, replicating any small-resolution situation18:12
slickymasterWorkgreat knome, I'll build them locally when I get home and see how it's working~18:13
elfyyup - kind of where I was going - if you can read it on a smartphone - you can read it anywhere18:13
knomei don't believe in special "phone versions" of websites, i rather just make the phone (browser) manufacturers make sure they follow the same rules as desktop browsers18:13
elfyyep - but you know what this poor old man was saying ;)18:14
slickymasterWorkbtw knome, I had a few minutes to investigate the export possibilities Docbook -> PDf, and as far as I've been able to see, most of them go through using LaTex18:14
elfymmm so poor old man needs to be pointed at where to open it from - getting xml errors :(18:15
slickymasterWorkknome, over at http://wiki.docbook.org/DocBookTools#Other_tools it's mentioned -> susedoc, a small documentation system which is used by SUSE. It consists of Makefiles and various scripts to convert DocBook XML sources into PDF, HTML or Manpages. Available for Linux only.18:25
slickymasterWorkbut I haven't research it yet18:27
elfywb ochosi 21:05
elfyif you're actually there ;)21:05
slickymasterknome, I've tested your rev. 277 and it works23:02
slickymastergreat work, thanks for it23:02
slickymasterelfy, I'm thinking of marking https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-manual-tests/+bug/1393204 either 'Incomplete' or 'Invalid'23:11
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1393204 in Ubuntu Manual Tests "Blueman testcase (ID 1591) : wrong mouse button for context menu" [Undecided,New]23:11
elfyslickymaster: dkessel is going to double check - spoke earlier23:12
slickymasterI commented on the bug report23:13
elfyk - thanks slickymaster :)23:14
slickymasternp23:14
elfy:)23:18
elfyjack's mp I commented on - don't think there's anything else currently23:18
* ochosi just arrived @home after 5 days of travelling23:19
ochosiwill probably need some time getting set up again23:19
slickymasteryes, besides those and yours, that balloons reviewed there's nothing else23:19
ochosii'll check in with you guys tomorrow or so23:19
slickymasterwelcome back ochosi 23:19
elfyochosi: or Thursday or something, but welcome back regardless :)23:20
ochosity :)23:22
ochosielfy: fwiw, i'll try to set up a real install of V within the next week23:23
elfythanks ;)23:23
elfyI just worry ;)23:23
ochosii'll have to get rid of utopic though, but that's so last-cycle anyway...23:23
elfyI won't say I still have my utopic at the moment then :p23:23
ochosi:]23:23
ochosiwell i just wanna get back to more exploratory testing23:24
elfynot booted it though 23:24
* slickymaster won't get rid of his trusty box23:24
* elfy still has trsuty - now having a 2 cycle old version - something I've not done since 2008 ish23:24
elfyochosi: funnily enough the first place that I'll see a reason not to apt-get upgrade is usually the mad +1 forum 23:25
ochosiheh23:25
slickymaster:)23:26
ochosiyeah, frankly i've totally abandoned the forums due to lack of free time23:26
elfyI always have a quick look in there to see if I should let x upgrade 23:26
ochosimm, makes sense23:26
elfyI kind of can't abandon it ;)23:26
