[10:21] <astraljava> blech... finally able to start testing. Yesterday and Friday didn't exactly go as planned. ;)
[16:54]  * pleia2 g+ && fb the RC upgrade test info
[17:00] <astraljava> Right, this is going to be the first and the last time I'm testing an ISO on this POS laptop. It's been 2+ hours, and it's still not done. I guess I'll stick to developing. It's much less resource-hungry. :p
[17:04] <ochosi> astraljava: depends on what you're compiling though
[17:06] <astraljava> ochosi: I know. :) Still, it's ridiculous that the installation takes almost three hours, as it has done now. I'm not about to build gimp or anything like that at first.
[17:06] <ochosi> strange though, my laptop is 6yrs old and an average install takes "only" 30-40min
[17:06] <astraljava> This is old enough that upgrading it (with an SSD, for example) makes no sense, either.
[17:07] <astraljava> ochosi: In vbox?
[17:07] <ochosi> yeah
[17:07] <ochosi> real installs are a bit faster
[17:07] <astraljava> Well, that is strange.
[17:07] <ochosi> i have an ssd though
[17:08] <astraljava> Ahh... well that could explain some of it.
[17:08] <ochosi> so that surely helps, but still, the laptop itself is 6yrs old
[17:09] <astraljava> So is mine.
[17:10] <astraljava> *-cpu
[17:10] <astraljava>           product: Pentium(R) Dual-Core CPU       T4200  @ 2.00GHz
[17:10] <astraljava> 4GB RAM
[17:11] <astraljava> So either there's something busted, or it's the HDD that's the culprit here.
[17:14] <ochosi> Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU     T8300  @ 2.40GHz
[17:15] <ochosi> so yeah, a few GHz faster than yours
[17:16] <ochosi> (and 4gb ram too)
[17:19] <knome> krytarik, 
[17:19] <knome> Automatic synchronization
[17:19] <knome> Translations are imported with every update from branch lp:xubuntu-docs, and exported daily to branch lp:xubuntu-docs. 
[17:19] <astraljava> Fortunately not few GHz, but a few point-GHz. :D Otherwise I wouldn't even play this game. :p But yeah, that doesn't explain the whole difference, not by a long shot.
[17:19] <knome> do we want to set that off for some reason?
[17:20] <krytarik> knome: Generally not, no - just have that loop stopped somehow.
[17:20] <knome> i guess there is no way to set that off
[17:20] <knome> well except turn those off..
[18:21] <astraljava> Yeah, so the machine never rebooted after the installation. I'm not going to file these results, it's obvious this hardware isn't suitable for that line of work.
[18:38] <elfy> astraljava: didn't reboot at all? or didn't reboot when you press enter to remove ?
[18:40] <astraljava> elfy: It got stuck once I pressed the button that's there once the installer finishes, I forget what it says.
[18:40] <elfy> astraljava: ok as long as it comes up from a hard reboot - that's a known issue
[18:41] <elfy> thank you for perservering :)
[18:41] <elfy> bug 1445592
[18:42] <astraljava> Oh ok, good to know. :)
[18:43] <elfy> always useful for people to look at the tracker for those things
[18:44] <astraljava> Yeah, you're right. I'm still a little rusty when it comes to the process. :) But then again, this machine is not suitable for that line of work, so I'll refresh myself on the matter once I get ahold of a computer that's usable.
[18:45] <elfy> I do stuff on an old laptop
[18:46] <astraljava> Yeah, me too. But as where ochosi gets an installation done in 30-40 minutes in vbox, mine spent three and a half hours on the same task.
[18:48] <elfy> yea - well this machine has a win partition for little one and the rest I actually hard install - so no vm in the mix
[18:50] <astraljava> Right, that might be the way to go. But I need the whole HDD dedicated for the actual installation. Oh well, I'll see what I can do with the desktop, just need to find a monitor for it.
[18:51] <elfy> maybe try kvm instead
[18:51] <elfy> I manage to get away with less memory in that than vbox
[18:52] <astraljava> Alright, will try that the next time. Thanks!
[18:52] <elfy> can but try :)
[18:54] <astraljava> Exactly. :)
[23:42] <bluesabre> I keep getting pinged in the wrong channel and not paying attention
[23:42] <knome> ;)
[23:42] <knome> no money to pay attention
[23:42] <knome> sad :|
[23:42] <bluesabre> probably an easy solution would be to hop off of -ot
[23:42] <knome> :)
[23:47] <bluesabre> but yeah, it's probably not a critical bug that breaks any functionality, so not sure the docs update is enough to get an exception for final freeze
[23:49] <knome> otoh, the release team has always been pretty loose on flavor-only stuff
[23:49] <knome> this literally only affects us
[23:49] <bluesabre> also true
[23:52] <bluesabre> slickymaster, krytarik: is there a bug report associated with the missing language.  We'll need to tack that onto the debian changelog and get an ack on that to apply for an exception
[23:58] <krytarik> bluesabre: No, not that I know of - would have to do one then.
