[00:33] <jimbo_> Hello
[00:34] <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?
[00:35] <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. :)
[00:36] <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.
[00:37] <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. :)
[00:38] <tsimonq2> (I'm on Zesty Zapus, the development release, though...)
[00:39] <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
[00:40] <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
[00:41] <lynorian> we know
[00:41] <jimbo_> lol
[00:41] <tsimonq2> jimbo_: Zesty Zapus is un-mature 17.04
[00:42] <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?
[00:43] <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.
[00:44] <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
[00:45] <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.
[00:46] <tsimonq2> (LTS = Long Term Support)
[00:46] <tsimonq2> jimbo_: I'm glad you like it ;)
[00:47] <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
[16:39] <sudodus> Hi,Long time no see. I'm (only) testing that it works for me to participate in this channel.
[16:41] <tsimonq2> sudodus: Hey :)
[16:42] <sudodus> tsimonq2: Hi, I'm glad for the progress with Firefox :-)
