* flocculant reiterates the "so I am now ready to move release notes to a working wiki ;)" comment 00:58
flocculantwhy do I get this thing sometime when workspace changes if I move mouse sideways a bit quick ... 01:03
flocculanthidden hotcorners or something ?01:03
knomehidden stupidity01:04
* knome hides01:04
flocculantwell01:04
knomeoh, hmm01:04
knome:P01:04
flocculantI have NEVER hidden that ;)01:04
knomelol01:04
flocculantbut seriously - sometimes I get random (seeming) workspace changes01:05
knomemm01:05
flocculantnot new01:05
flocculantspoke to ochosi about it ages ago01:05
knomerighto01:05
knomedon't remember01:05
knomebut i'm not ochosi :P01:05
flocculantwell no - you're knome :D01:06
flocculantha ha ha 01:06
knomeyes01:06
knomei think01:06
flocculant:)01:06
flocculantt'is odd - bit quick with mouse - and oop - other workspace01:06
flocculantperhaps it is really specific - this mouse, this graphic card *shrug*01:07
flocculantand - I don't have finger resting on wheel - so it's not rapid move = surreptitious movement of wheel 01:08
knomesurreptilian01:09
flocculantno switch on wheel either - so it's not the mouse - when I saw it before must have been different mouse - had a swtich on that01:09
flocculantknome: ha ha 01:10
flocculantbluesabre: made some notes on the slideshow pad - love some feedback from you on those 01:30
bluesabreflocculant: link to make things easier?01:31
flocculanthttp://pad.ubuntu.com/xubuntu-1604-slideshow01:31
flocculantbad bookmarking there boss :p01:31
flocculantbluesabre: slide positioning notes 01:32
bluesabreflocculant: I am horrible at bookmarking... firefox's awesome bar is great at searching for what I've looked at, chromium's is dismal01:34
flocculantaah right 01:39
flocculantstill don't get on with chrom*01:39
bluesabreit's faster for me and seems to do well with the absurd number of tabs I often have open01:41
bluesabrethat, and chromecast01:41
flocculantand added thoughts to 'Other thoughts'02:08
* bluesabre nods02:13
bluesabrebut not as dangerously as Unit193 nods02:13
flocculantless manically? 02:15
* flocculant quite likes the idea of morphing through a bunch of apps that 'team' uses to accomplish the same end result02:16
flocculantthough we would want to stick with the same background/fonts etc02:16
flocculantsurely we just need people to run 'their' preference to a screencast? 02:17
bluesabredunno, this is more of a marketing-ish thing02:18
flocculantwe could do similar for desktop customisation perhaps?02:18
flocculantyea for sure :D02:18
flocculantbluesabre: you come up with an idea - I'll say we can test it :p02:18
bluesabre:D02:18
bluesabreeverybody do screencasts in vbox 640x480 window02:19
flocculant2/3's of 'release'02:19
flocculantI knew it would come in handy to be in release :D02:19
flocculantyep02:19
bluesabrehah02:19
flocculantsort of think we should have been thinking about at xmas I suppose 02:20
flocculantthe main thing is getting some sort of nod from slickymaster and knome 02:20
bluesabreyeah02:20
flocculantI can happily do some screencasts02:21
bluesabregotta wake 'em up02:21
flocculant:)02:21
flocculantone's asleep - the other is Mediterranean02:21
flocculantbah 02:21
flocculantmissed out the ... there :D02:21
Unit193>_>02:24
flocculantI know :(02:24
pleia2so, struggling a lot with gnome-software02:40
pleia2reported on iso tracker for xubuntu, on ubuntu the crash report is a known issue :\02:40
* flocculant picks up the tracker02:41
flocculantpleia2: gimp?02:43
pleia2yeah02:43
pleia2it's the first thing I always install02:43
flocculantyep02:43
flocculantwe all have something first :)02:43
pleia2then google-chrome, which also has issues (need to apt-get update first) but that's not an ubuntu package, it's a .deb I download02:43
pleia2so no report02:44
* flocculant does clementine ppa and ppa02:44
flocculantbluesabre: and software returned to the menu it seems 02:45
flocculantoh02:45
flocculantnewish install - guess I 'd really knackered the other one lol02:45
flocculantI lost interwebs some places too :D02:45
pleia2flocculant: oh, disks for iso testing is totally my new go-to, I think I'll write a blog post02:46
flocculantpleia2: I assume that you saw the password prompt? 02:46
flocculantgimp installed02:46
pleia2flocculant: I did not02:47
flocculantpleia2: ok - so I wonder if it's one of those ...02:47
flocculanteg02:47
flocculanthere in Xubuntu land we can do things like set focus - if mouse is > there and password prompt shows up < there02:48
bluesabreso not getting consistent anything with gs yet02:48
flocculantpleia2: I'd guess that an apt-get install -f fixes it02:48
pleia2flocculant: interesting, I'll do another iso test tomorrow and will test accordingly (I shut down the laptop I was testing on)02:49
flocculantbluesabre: mmmm  - I had issues - not had any since moving of the knackered install02:49
flocculantpleia2: oh02:49
flocculantpleia2: in a vm ? if not - that would be a good test for this I think - standard settings02:49
pleia2flocculant: no, physical hardware02:50
* flocculant always tests broken crap in a vm 02:50
flocculantcaught out loads :)02:50
flocculantpleia2: clean install? 02:50
flocculantdoing one early tomorrow here02:51
pleia2flocculant: clean install02:51
pleia2I didn't know it would be broken :) and try to do all my iso tests on real hardware since I do so few x_x02:52
flocculantpleia2: okey doke - doing one tomorrow am for a slideshow/install race :p02:52
flocculantpleia2: I do really love you :D02:52
flocculantI get tens of tests - I have my favourites amongst the ten :D02:53
flocculantI'll check it out02:53
flocculantit is fact it's never going to do some of the things USC does02:54
pleia2flocculant: <302:54
* flocculant had to reinstall - been running the broken one since the day after release02:55
flocculantwell - dist-upgrade one 02:55
flocculantwould have been quicker to reinstall tbh :D02:55
flocculantpleia2: well - gimp installed ok - very very slow for some reason11:03
bluesabremorning all13:06
knomehmm..16:06
knomei would not integrate a screencast in the slideshow16:08
knomebut we can definitely give them a spot on the website and more if people produce them16:08
bluesabreknome: not sure if flocculant was suggesting integrating it into the slideshow16:30
bluesabrebut maybe having a screencast series16:31
bluesabrenot sure16:31
knomei'm not sure either, i had a headache whole day and am a bit fuzzy now after all the painkillers and naps16:31
ochosibluesabre: generally i don't mind screencasts, they're a lot of work though if you wanna do them well18:50
ochosimore so than screenshots and text, i'd say18:50
Unit193Also need a deep, sexy voice.18:51
ochosi:>19:01
pleia2flocculant: added next meeting to the team calendar19:41
Unit193\o/19:42
pleia2also wrote http://princessleia.com/journal/2016/03/xubuntu-16-04-iso-testing-tips/19:42
akxwi-davenice one pleia2 , didn't know about gnome-disk.. been doing the same as you... installing it now.. :-)19:52
pleia2helped someone already, wonderful :)19:53
tracker0hi20:04
Unit193Bye.20:05
knomepleia2, did you social media that?20:40
pleia2knome: yes20:41
pleia2a bit20:41
* knome tries to decipher the message20:41
pleia2retweeted on twitter, but don't have a great way of doing similar on other platforms20:42
knomeaha20:42
knome"Xubuntu Marketing Lead Elizabeth Joseph gives a few tips for those who wish to test the Xubuntu ISOs [url]"20:43
pleia2bah, titles20:50
knome:D20:51
knome"Somebody From the Internet gives a few tips..."20:51
pleia2I said community member :)20:51
knometitles are good because they give some sense for reliability20:51
pleia2marketing lead doesn't really help my cred here20:52
pleia2maybe could have said Xubuntu Team Member20:52
pleia2next time :)20:52
knomelol20:52
Unit193Sure, but knome is right.  There's more of a reason to read $randomjoe with a grain of salt than you.  You should know a lot more about what you're talking.20:53
pleia2one would hope :)20:54
flocculantpleia2: thanks for calendar - nice testing blog :) could you edit your blog? I'd love to be the Xubuntu Qa lead instead of Ubuntu's :22:11
flocculantlong day - back tomorrow :)22:11
pleia2flocculant: oops, fixed22:23
