| lubot | <ZebedeeBoss> Daily image install failure 11.09.2018 | 05:18 |
| lubot | <ZebedeeBoss> I am running it again | 05:20 |
| lubot | <ZebedeeBoss> The plus side is the live USB booted with all three monitors connected - yeah 😀 | 05:25 |
| lubot | <ZebedeeBoss> failed in the same place 74% - maybe the site it is trying to contact is down. Will run the installer from a terminal to see any additional output | 05:27 |
| lubot | <ZebedeeBoss> here is the last part of the terminal window >> https://pastebin.com/9M2KXa7t | 05:41 |
| lubot | <ZebedeeBoss> I will try again in around 1 hour unless a message here says otherwise :) | 05:41 |
| lubot | <ZebedeeBoss> Been too busy atm - sorry will try again tomorrow | 09:01 |

| lubot | <TheWendyPower> I have my launchpad set up. https://launchpad.net/~thewendypower | 16:20 |
| lubot | <innerdev> Hello. Can you help me with HiDPI somehow? I have 15'' laptop with 1920x1080. All elements are way too small. What can I do besides font size increase? | 16:49 |
| lubot | <tsimonq2> If it's on any other Lubuntu release than 18.10, please go to https://telegram.lubuntu.me/support for help | 16:50 |
| lubot | <innerdev> Thank you, sorry. Delete those messages please. | 16:51 |
| lubot | <tsimonq2> @innerdev [Thank you, sorry. Delete those messages please.], No problem, thanks :) | 16:53 |
| wxl | @TheWendyPower has now officially been added to ~lubuntu-art so I think we should announce our new member @tsimonq2 | 17:35 |
| wxl | uhhh | 17:39 |
| wxl | not sure where you got that from | 17:39 |
| wxl | `sudo add-apt-repository ppa:vantuz/cool-retro-term && sudo apt update && sudo apt install cool-retro-term` and you should be done | 17:40 |
| wxl | NOT bugs-launchpad-net-falkensweb | 17:40 |
| wxl | but vantuz | 17:40 |
| wxl | i'm quite sure that other business would 404 | 17:40 |
| wxl | argh wrong channellllllllllll | 17:40 |
| lubot | <tsimonq2> @wxl [<wxl> @TheWendyPower has now officially been added to ~lubuntu-art so I think we …], Sweet! | 18:08 |
| lubot | <tsimonq2> Welcome @TheWendyPower | 18:08 |
| lubot | <tsimonq2> I can announce | 18:09 |
| lubot | <tsimonq2> @TheWendyPower Do you have social media or a website I can link to? | 18:09 |
| lubot | <TheWendyPower> The only website is my professional photography site. | 18:10 |
| wxl | you should make a wiki page | 18:11 |
| wxl | (and then we can work on making you an ubuntu member) :) | 18:11 |
| lubot | <tsimonq2> I'll crank out a newsletter this afternoon wxl | 18:18 |
| lubot | <tsimonq2> @wxl [<wxl> (and then we can work on making you an ubuntu member) :)], This | 18:47 |
| Wafficus | Hi there, I'm a beginner Python dev with some experience in creating fake websites with HTML + CSS, my website is: musimatic.net | 18:48 |
| Wafficus | How could a beginner like me contribute to Lubuntu? | 18:48 |
| Wafficus | I was told to check this out by wxl earlier today | 18:49 |
| lubot | <tsimonq2> Well, you've done the first step, which is to idle here :) | 18:50 |
| wxl | @tsimonq2: welcome center? | 18:50 |
| Wafficus | lubot: Ha gotcha | 18:51 |
| Wafficus | are there any beginner related projects though or is it just purely based on requests by users? | 19:20 |
| Wafficus | like do you guys use support tickets, or Git Hub responses? | 19:20 |
| wxl | there may be some projects that you can help with. that welcome center i mentioned to @tsimonq2 is one such thing, perhaps. i'm not sure what he has planned | 19:21 |
| wxl | as far as existing projects are concerned, there are always bugs to fix | 19:21 |
| wxl | one thing i should mention is that the upcoming 18.10 release is going to be a big change. we'll be using lxqt instead of lxde | 19:22 |
| wxl | and calamares instead of the usual ubiquity installer | 19:22 |
| wxl | we have our own phabricator https://phab.lubuntu.me/ | 19:23 |
| wxl | that's kind of our "development center" if you will | 19:23 |
| wxl | but most bugs are tracked on launchpad | 19:24 |
| wxl | the ones affecting packages within our jurisdiction should be found within ~lubuntu-packaging https://bugs.launchpad.net/~lubuntu-packaging | 19:24 |
| wxl | in general most bugfixes should be pushed upstream unless they're lubuntu specific (e.g. the lubuntu-default-settings package) | 19:25 |
| wxl | does that help, Wafficus ? | 19:25 |
| Wafficus | Totally | 19:27 |
| Wafficus | thanks man | 19:27 |
| wxl | so i'd say pick around and see what questions you can come up with | 19:27 |
| wxl | one *BIG* place you can help out with is looking at bugs on current supported releases and seeing if you can confirm or clarify them, i.e. do bug triage | 19:28 |
| wxl | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Triage | 19:29 |
| wxl | the other place you can help with (if you have a spare computer or are comfortable with virtual machines) is with daily image testing https://phab.lubuntu.me/w/testing/ | 19:29 |
| wxl | that ought to keep you busy for a while XD | 19:29 |
| wxl | one other thing i'll mention: you can learn a LOT just by sticking on #lubuntu and trying to help with people's questions. you might not know the answer but in searching and seeing if you can't find the answer, you can learn a lot | 19:30 |
| Wafficus | for sure | 19:37 |
| Wafficus | I love VMs too | 19:37 |
| Wafficus | I got a Windows gaming rig that could do this from time to time for automation testing | 19:38 |
| Wafficus | I mostly use a 4 gig Lubuntu laptop for dev | 19:38 |
| Wafficus | probably could run VMs on the weekend for sure though | 19:43 |
| Wafficus | that machine is a beast, 16 gig ram, i7, etc | 19:43 |
| Wafficus | I prefer the Lubuntu laptop for dev stuff though cause I prefer terminal based applications these days anyway | 19:44 |
| wxl | everyone will be happy to know that i revised my irssi config so now the channel name stands out like a sore thumb XD | 23:11 |
| lubot | <tsimonq2> FINALLY | 23:19 |
| lubot | <tsimonq2> For official Lubuntu announcements, usually just blog posts: https://t.me/LubuntuOfficial | 23:45 |
