melodieje suis en train de refaire l'iso pour un détail de placement d'icônes12:45
melodiej'ai un script qui réinitialise le bureau tel que présenté à l'origine, il fait cela dés l'ouverture de session.12:45
melodieça fonctionne une fois installé mais dans le live les icônes sont rangées n'importe comment12:45
melodieet je n'ai pas encore trouvé pourquoi12:46
melodiealors j'ai modifié un petit peu le script, et je vais voir si ça change quelque chose12:46

melodiehi ubuntiste-msakni inetpro Cryterion19:33
ubuntiste-msakniHey melodie !19:52
ubuntiste-msakniWassup!19:52
melodieubuntiste-msakni Malinux is almost ready19:53
ubuntiste-msakniMalinux! A new fork?19:55
melodieMalinux is a Xubuntu arranged for the teachers in high-school and universities, in Mali.19:56
melodieMy guess is that all countries in Africa might be interested19:56
melodieubuntiste-msakni there is a program inside which can allow using wikipedia off line19:56
melodiethis is what I found about it:19:56
melodiehttp://www.mali-ntic.org/index.php/toutes-les-ressources/414-le-projet-moulin-ou-l-acces-hors-connexion-a-wikipedia-la-plus-grande-encyclopedie-libre-du-monde-rendu-possible-grace-a-l-ong-geekcorps19:57
ubuntiste-msakniAwesome!19:57
melodieand this is where I found a link to download the ISO:19:57
ubuntiste-msakniI'll be happy to try it!19:57
melodiehttp://www.commentcamarche.net/download/telecharger-34055174-moulin19:57
melodieubuntiste-msakni I am planning to provide this program as a package seperated from the ISO19:57
ubuntiste-msakniGreat19:58
ubuntiste-msaknimelodie, do you know about kiwix http://www.kiwix.org/wiki/Main_Page ?19:58
melodieand have it install with a small shell script which will open the archive so that it installs the files in the right places19:58
ubuntiste-msakniKiwix is the official onffline Wikipedia version :) Take a look at it :)19:59
melodieit looks good19:59
melodieis it provided in French? I have understood that in Mali they use French20:00
ubuntiste-msakniYes!20:00
ubuntiste-msaknihttp://www.kiwix.org/wiki/Main_Page/fr20:00
* ubuntiste-msakni should go back to work, need to finish my LoCo Team Re-Approval report.. Then check the SFD status.. 20:01
melodieubuntiste-msakni who takes care of the Ubuntu Africa project in French? Kilos talks English only20:02
ubuntiste-msakniI help some times.. But I don't really know who's taking care of it right now.. I should take care of my LoCo as we will have a Re-Approval meeting soon, and I need to help organizing the Software Freedom Day event.. And of course am planning my wedding x) :D20:05
ubuntiste-msakniI don't need to mention the project we talked about last time → Ubuntu fork, that it's on hold right now becasue of all of that x) :D20:06
melodieubuntiste-msakni about the fork, there is buddy who told me to shift to Customizer now20:21
melodieI get you the link20:21
melodiehttps://github.com/clearkimura/Customizer20:22
melodieit's written in Python, the buddy told me it has the same gui look and feel and is working much better (and currently developped)20:22
melodiewhile Ubuntu Builder is orphan since march 201420:23
melodieabout the Ubuntu Africa team I would like to have approval to point to the ubuntu-africa website in the distro, instead of pointing to Ubuntu20:23
ubuntiste-msakniI was already using it when we talk last time :)20:24
melodieoh ok!20:25
melodieI hadn't remembered20:25
ubuntiste-msakniI asked you about Ubuntu Builder to make sure if it can be using in cli mode or not :) I don't think that Kilos or someone else will say no to that :D We are looking for that kind of referrals :D20:26
melodieubuntiste-msakni I'll upload a small version not containing MoulinWiki, because it makes the iso huge20:31
melodiethen the people can test it20:31
ubuntiste-msakniGreat.. I'll try it asap.. Can't promise to do it now or this week because I know that I can't keep a such promise..20:32
melodieit's not ready yet20:46
melodieubuntiste-msakni before I want to try to tweak the graphic a bit more20:46
melodieI'll see now if I can modify the ubiquity slideshow installer20:47
ubuntiste-msakni:D20:48
ubuntiste-msaknimelodie, you can ask Na3iL about who is maintaining the French version of #ubuntu-africa20:49
melodieok20:51
melodieNa3iL ?20:51
Na3iLo/ yo ubuntiste-msakni melodie20:52
Na3iLI was eating x)20:52
Na3iLhows you guys?20:52
melodieok I guess20:52
Na3iLBTW, you finished the Artwork of Malinux?!20:53
melodieI have done the plymouth21:02
melodiejust reused the xubuntu plymouth setup21:02
melodiedirty and fast, it works21:02
melodieI also did the isolinux images21:03
melodieI have to check if that works21:03
melodieand I'm not going to do a ubiquity slideshow because it would take me too long21:03
Na3iLCool! Keep up the good work melodie :)21:03
melodieso if someone wants to do it later, he/she will be welcome21:03
melodieNa3iL who is/are in charge for the French speaking Africa Ubuntu ?21:04
Na3iLWell, I did the French version for Ubuntu Africa21:04
melodieok21:05
Na3iLAnd, it would be great if you want to help.. I think the Fr wikies need some checking..21:05
melodiewhat do you think if we point to the French version of the Ubuntu Africa website, in Malinux menus, instead of the Xubuntu website?21:05
melodieI can't help21:05
melodieI have my own path to follow21:05
melodieI do this edition of Malinux to help an association of my area who goes to Mali once a year with a truck full of machines installed with Malinux21:06
Na3iLI see21:07
melodieand I have thought it will interest all Africa Ubuntu and Africa Linux people to reuse it21:07
Na3iLYeah why not melodie! it will be very helpful I think21:07
melodieit's intended for teachers in high schools and universities and is easy to modify of course21:07
melodieI am about to build the last "big one" now and I'll make smaller ones right after. I know how to do that21:08
melodiethen I'll upload the two versions21:08
melodieall will be in 32bits though, fits more machines21:08
melodiethe big one comes with "MoulinWiki", and the smaller won't have it.21:08
melodiebut it will be provided apart in a tarball ready to install21:08
Na3iLGood! you are working on this only you? There's a LoCo team in mali they can help you through21:10
melodieNa3iL for the Fr wikies, feel free to copy whatever interests you on the wiki.linuxvillage.org and in the tips and tricks and "trucs et astuces" from the linuxvillage.org forum21:10
