jimbo_ | Hello | 00:33 |
---|---|---|
jimbo_ | Anyone on here? | 00:34 |
tsimonq2 | jimbo_: Hi! :) | 00:34 |
tsimonq2 | jimbo_: How are you? | 00:34 |
jimbo_ | Good | 00:34 |
tsimonq2 | That's good :) | 00:34 |
tsimonq2 | So how can I help you? | 00:34 |
jimbo_ | I was wondering if there any plans to create a patch for Lubuntu so firefox 52 will play sound on Lubuntu | 00:35 |
jimbo_ | ? | 00:35 |
tsimonq2 | jimbo_: Yes actually. :) | 00:35 |
tsimonq2 | We've been keeping an eye on that. | 00:36 |
tsimonq2 | I'll give the applicable person another ping to see how that's coming along. | 00:36 |
tsimonq2 | jimbo_: (Lubuntu doesn't actually package Firefox ourselves, but we have a friendly Canonical guy that does it for all Ubuntu flavors, if that makes sense) | 00:37 |
jimbo_ | Ok I have switched web browsers, but prefer Firefox | 00:37 |
tsimonq2 | I get it, I use Firefox too. :) | 00:37 |
tsimonq2 | (I'm on Zesty Zapus, the development release, though...) | 00:38 |
lynorian | I have both installed | 00:39 |
jimbo_ | As i understand it the problem is that firefox uses pulseadio and lubuntu uses alsa | 00:39 |
jimbo_ | what is zesty zapus? | 00:39 |
jimbo_ | I am new to linux | 00:39 |
lynorian | jimbo_, the next release as 16.04 is also called xenial xerus | 00:40 |
jimbo_ | I don't understand the sound file software thingy | 00:40 |
jimbo_ | I have xenial xerus | 00:40 |
lynorian | we know | 00:41 |
jimbo_ | lol | 00:41 |
tsimonq2 | jimbo_: Zesty Zapus is un-mature 17.04 | 00:41 |
jimbo_ | i find it confusing to determine to whome i should be reporting this type of issue. | 00:42 |
tsimonq2 | jimbo_: The 17.04 we want to release in a month ;) | 00:42 |
jimbo_ | is that a beta release, or full on release? | 00:42 |
tsimonq2 | jimbo_: So I think the best way is to send a quick email to our development mailing list, lubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com | 00:43 |
tsimonq2 | jimbo_: We love emails from awesome folks like you ;) | 00:43 |
jimbo_ | ok | 00:43 |
jimbo_ | lol | 00:43 |
tsimonq2 | jimbo_: Or lubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com if it's more user-oriented and it's something cool you want to chat about, but not necessarily related to the development of Ubuntu. | 00:43 |
tsimonq2 | jimbo_: Anyways, yeah, Final Beta was Thursday ;) | 00:44 |
tsimonq2 | (I meant Lubuntu, not Ubuntu) | 00:44 |
jimbo_ | what are the major differences from xenial xerus | 00:44 |
tsimonq2 | Well, Xenial Xerus is 16.04 LTS. We commit to supporting it for three years, as opposed to regular releases which only has a nine month support span. | 00:45 |
jimbo_ | I like the version i am running. At least on my oldish laptop. | 00:45 |
tsimonq2 | We do releases every six months, with LTS releases every two years. | 00:45 |
tsimonq2 | (LTS = Long Term Support) | 00:46 |
tsimonq2 | jimbo_: I'm glad you like it ;) | 00:46 |
jimbo_ | Alright well you have a good evening. | 00:47 |
tsimonq2 | You too, take it easy. :) | 00:47 |
tsimonq2 | And let me know if you have any more questions. | 00:47 |
tsimonq2 | Aaaaaaaaaaaaand he left :P | 00:47 |
sudodus | Hi,Long time no see. I'm (only) testing that it works for me to participate in this channel. | 16:39 |

sudodus | tsimonq2: Hi, I'm glad for the progress with Firefox :-) | 16:42 |
