[13:15] <zequence> elfy: A sponsor?
[13:19] <knome> zequence, every blog that is listed in the planet needs to be a ubuntu member blog - and in the case of team blogs, it will need to have one ubuntu member as the "sponsor" who oversees that the content is suitable for the planet
[13:25] <zequence> Ah. Sure, elfy. I can be the sponsor.
[16:00] <DalekSec> According to the one thing you still use xscreensaver, so bug 1406825 might be relavent.
[16:40] <elfy> zequence: ta - at some point I'll deal with that 
[16:52] <zequence> DalekSec: Thanks
[18:24] <DalekSec> Sure, though as you can see not uploaded yet.  Hope it helps.
[22:35] <elfy> mailed the list - but it appears to be hung up somewhere
[22:36] <elfy> the trusty point release is tomorrow if anyone has time to do some testing 
[22:38] <elfy> I did what I could 
[23:27] <OvenWerks> elfy: if it boots, the SW all seems to work for 14.04. I run it as my daily machine.
[23:28] <elfy> yea 
[23:28] <elfy> OvenWerks: I don't actually use it so wouldn't know
[23:28] <OvenWerks> I figgured.
[23:28] <elfy> alos tested in a vm and never even bothered to see if sound there works :p
[23:29] <elfy> but I got installs done in the end, and half the live session stuff 
[23:29] <OvenWerks> Sound works for me, but sound is so diverse it could fail for someone somewhere.
[23:30] <elfy> heh
[23:30] <OvenWerks> I have a new MB but I still run PCI sound cards
[23:30] <elfy> understand that - but I have enough trouble getting pavucontrol working without mucking about with jack :)
[23:30] <OvenWerks> I run both together.
[23:31] <elfy> I bought a cheap one for the new machine the other day, wish I'd not bothered - had more trouble with it than the really old one 
[23:31] <OvenWerks> I have been using jack as the sound device for pulse for almost a year now.
[23:31] <elfy> like really old ... 
[23:32] <OvenWerks> The old ensoniq pci was one of the best consumer grade cards. I use mine for midi along with an ICE1712 card.
[23:32] <elfy> name does ring a bell 
[23:34] <OvenWerks> I am still in stereo land, I have not worried about surround at all here.
[23:34] <elfy> heh
[23:35] <elfy> I'm 53 with knackered ears - I can tell stereo from mono usually :p
[23:35] <OvenWerks> I'm a year older, my ears sing with no aural input sometimes.
[23:36] <elfy> right - so it's not *just* me then :p
[23:37] <OvenWerks> I wish I could say it was the music, but I think it was my screaming kids
[23:38] <elfy> there'll be an echo in here if we're not careful :D
[23:38] <elfy> though there was a fair old bit of motorhead in my past
[23:39] <elfy> not quite old enough for seeing zeppelin or deep purple 
[23:40] <OvenWerks> I'm more ARS/April Wine/Chilliwack kinds of things.
[23:40] <elfy> well 
[23:40] <elfy> never heard of any of them :D but I'm actually more Gong than loud stuff :)
[23:41] <elfy> I just use it as an excuse for being deaf :p
[23:41] <OvenWerks>  :)
