| flocculant | bluesabre_: so - what do you want us to do - other than say something on release note, funnily enough someone commented in #x yesterday about it | 05:37 |
|---|---|---|
| flocculant | note the ubuntu download page https://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop | 05:41 |
| * flocculant thinks we should do the same | 05:44 | |
| flocculant | I posted on facebook about it now - and answered someone who's possibly affected | 05:59 |
| flocculant | we really should be more proactive on this sort of thing :| | 06:00 |
| flocculant | apparently I posted on some other Xubuntu fb page ... | 06:30 |
| flocculant | pleia2: any idea what https://www.facebook.com/groups/424769327667974/ is? | 06:31 |
| sorinello | is there any way to recoverr your laptop from this ? | 08:23 |
| === bluesabre_ is now known as bluesabre | ||
| bluesabre | flocculant: I agree that we should display some warning, probably more visibly than ubuntu does | 10:28 |
| bluesabre | knome: can you make it happen? :-) | 10:28 |
| bluesabre | flexiondotorg: please let me know if you need any more info for https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=884587 | 10:51 |
| ubottu | Debian bug 884587 in engrampa "engrampa: Drop unused dependencies for lighter installation requirements" [Wishlist,Open] | 10:51 |
| bluesabre | flocculant: this is what you were looking for https://www.facebook.com/xubuntuusers/ | 11:16 |
| sorinello_ | or at leas how do I find out if I am using that driver which is supposed to be blacklisted ? | 14:19 |
| knome | bluesabre, make what happen? | 14:25 |
| knome | done, i think | 14:33 |
| pleia2 | flocculant: nope, news to me (though admittedly, fb is not really my jam) | 15:38 |
| * pleia2 joins anyway | 15:38 | |
| pleia2 | at least, trying to join :) they make you answer questions that have to be reviewed by an admin to join | 15:40 |
| pleia2 | ah, they let me in ;) | 15:47 |
| knome | apparently that bug does not affect my thinkpad 13 | 15:50 |
| knome | which is something | 15:50 |
| knome | i tweeted the warning | 15:59 |
| knome | bbl | 15:59 |
| pleia2 | is it worth a message to users and devel mailing lists too? | 17:21 |
| pleia2 | (not that we have much of a role here, maybe just users) | 17:21 |
| flocculant | bluesabre pleia2 - I know about the users one - I'm admin there - will just need to watch which one I'm posting in :D | 17:28 |
| pleia2 | yeah, I'm on the users one too (and totally don't look at it, because I'm bad at my xubuntu job) | 17:29 |
| flocculant | pleia2: but I thought I took that from you cos you didn't like it :p | 17:30 |
| pleia2 | yeah, but I should probably stay aware of our social media thingys | 17:30 |
| slickymasterWork | I think you just remained with G+, pleia2 | 17:30 |
| slickymasterWork | which you also dislike :P | 17:31 |
| pleia2 | :D | 17:31 |
| flocculant | any nastiness I'd let you know anyway :p | 17:31 |
| pleia2 | to be fair, G+ is hard to use when I'm traveling (which is a lot) because it's not great on slower connections | 17:31 |
| flocculant | bluesabre: not sure how we could display warning more visibly - they've disabled 17.10 download ... | 17:31 |
| slickymasterWork | because of LP 1734147, flocculant? | 17:33 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1734147 in linux (Ubuntu) "Ubuntu 17.10 corrupting BIOS - many LENOVO laptops models" [Critical,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1734147 | 17:33 |
| flocculant | yup | 17:33 |
| slickymasterWork | right | 17:34 |
| flocculant | I've been rabbiting on about it in here for 2 days ;) | 17:34 |
| slickymasterWork | just come across it today :P | 17:34 |
| pleia2 | ^ that's what I was suggesting a users mailing list post for | 17:34 |
| flocculant | you didn't see the team ping then slickymasterWork :p | 17:35 |
| slickymasterWork | nopes, went to Lisbon Tuesday nigh just arrived today morning | 17:35 |
| flocculant | pleia2: ohhh - m/l ... I thought you meant users fb page :D | 17:35 |
| slickymasterWork | haven't yet went home, so haven't checked my irssi session | 17:35 |
| pleia2 | flocculant: yeah sorry, context switching | 17:36 |
| flocculant | doing it now :) | 17:36 |
| flocculant | ish | 17:36 |
| flocculant | and done | 17:41 |
| pleia2 | thanks flocculant :) | 19:35 |
| flocculant | np :) | 19:35 |
| ochosi_ | bluesabre: is switching to xfpm 1.6.x planned for bionic in the near future? would be nice so i can get some testing from ppl and feedback whether there is still stuff i need to fix in xfpm before 18.04 | 23:05 |
| ochosi_ | currently it also doesn't seem to be part of any of our PPAs | 23:06 |
| === ochosi_ is now known as ochosi | ||
| ochosi | flocculant: also fyi ^ | 23:07 |
| ochosi | (ok ok, it's part of "daily builds", but even there it seems wrongly tagged as 1.6.0) | 23:08 |
