[00:00] <tsimonq2> just a note, doing a Kubuntu 14.04 install and I really like how the installer shows a progress bar on the bottom even while you are still selecting items.
[00:00] <tsimonq2> just an idea
[03:10] <transhuman_> prob #1: this is getting a little annoying. One major hassle has lead to discovery of two others. My ubuntu virtualized systems (happens on debian too) loose the passwords that I have assigned to accounts) recovery is necessary, it then works for a while and then it looses the passwords, seems to happen on boot. I know I have the passwords right (single finger typing with copying passwords from a paper works for a while then it "looses" them)
[03:10] <transhuman_> problem 2: ubuntu keyboard assist is missing function keys (totally absent) Doesn't seem to be a work around
[03:10] <transhuman_> problem 3: vmware's fling embedded console doesnt allow the passing of function keys from debian desktop to vmware guest console (fling is from vmware labs)
[03:12] <dobey> have you filed bugs?
[03:12] <transhuman_> not yet wondering if its already been reported somewhere( I have looked but haven't found anything similar
[03:12] <transhuman_> )
[03:13] <transhuman_> looking for a work around with the keyboard problem ( I will mirror the vm and cause it to happen see if i can recover source of bit error
[03:13] <transhuman_> that make passwords not work
[03:13] <dobey> you'd ahve to look at the appropriate bug trackers if you want to search.
[03:13] <transhuman_> happens on multiple instances over many years by the way debian too I just finally got sick of it enough to report it
[03:14] <dobey> th vmware issue at least you will likely have to report to vmware support
[03:14] <dobey> well, irc is not a bug reporting site. please file bug reports :)
[03:15] <tsimonq2> +1
[05:34] <goddard> anyone familar with how to generate a linux-image-extra package for debian based systems from a mainline kernel?
[14:22] <ari-tczew> Noskcaj: please fix a debdiff for bug 1524490 and I'm happy to upload it for you. I hope bluesabre is aware about that merge.
[18:53] <amoghe> Could someone give me pointers on how to build a core rootfs (as seen here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Core) from scratch ?
[21:56] <ari-tczew> flexiondotorg: did you consider ever to apply for Package Set @Mate? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopers#PerPackage
