[16:08] <bdmurray> worked with webops regarding amqp failues (queue down to 0, not accepting core files or retracing anything) (LP: #1394365)
[16:08] <bdmurray> added lucid, maverick to EoL releases for daisy/submit.py just in case
[16:08] <bdmurray> implemented OOPS creation in the retracer.py code so OOPSes will go to oops.canonical.com for them
[16:09] <bdmurray> submitted RTs to have staging and production versions of daisy updated
[16:09] <bdmurray> investigation into retracing failures
[16:09] <bdmurray> r581 daisy/retracer.py: do not consider all reports with RetraceOutdatedPackages in them as failures, rather make sure that the retraced report has a Stacktrace before considering it a success.
[16:09] <bdmurray> wrote a script to find missing ddebs for 15.04 parsing retracer log files
[16:09] <bdmurray> worked with pjdc to test a scaling stack retracer
[16:09] <bdmurray> reported whoopsie bug 1390627 and added in details
[16:09] <bdmurray> uploaded libproxy, libnih, google-glog, gflags, avahi, unity-gtk-module, lcms2, mir, libsecret, mtdev, nettle, libasyncns, accountsservice, network-manager-applet, gnome-bluetooth, heimdal, process-cpp, net-cpp to get ddebs for 15.04
[16:09] <bdmurray> uploaded dkms hook that adds the package version to the package key fixing empty package version information in the Error Tracker
[16:09] <bdmurray> UE - IS sync up call
[16:09] <bdmurray> ✔ done

[16:10] <barry> done.
[16:10] <robru> one sec
[16:11] <robru> * CI Train overhaul
[16:11] <robru>   - Wrote all new watch_ppa capable of scanning multiple series per silo
[16:11] <robru>   - worked with Ursinha on a bringup of a new deployment, fixing lots of bitrotted parts of the charm
[16:11] <robru>   - Good cleanup in the testsuite, moved lots of redundantly copy&pasted logic into a single cohesive superclass for all TestCase subclasses
[16:11] <robru>   - Implemented 'DotProject' class to manage .project files, consolidating redundant logic from 8 different places across 5 different files into a single coherent place.
[16:11] <robru>   - Wrote a wrapper for os.path.join() which raises an exception if you accidentally pass in too many absolute paths, protecting us against an entire class of bugs
[16:11] <robru>   - Inlined a number of redundant, single-use functions into one coherent function.
[16:11] <robru>   - Completed enough of the relative->absolute path transition that I was able to drop all calls to os.chdir() from the build job.
[16:11] <robru> * various landings, landings, landings.
[16:11] <robru> (done)
[16:12] <Ursinha> citrain shiny staging on its way

[17:02] <meetingology> Current chairs: YokoZar cprofitt czajkowski dholbach elfy mhall119 pleia2
[17:03] <YokoZar> Welcome
[17:03] <czajkowski> Aloha :)
[17:03] <didrocks> dholbach: we're good! Wrapping up blueprints after UOS
[17:03] <didrocks> got quite some nice sessions, especially the Q&A with the community
[17:03] <dholbach> what kept you guys busy in the last time?
[17:04] <didrocks> dholbach: I wasn't there the last time, so not sure when it was exactly, like a month or so?
[17:04] <dholbach> hum? I'm not sure I understand - you mean when the CC met with the Desktop team the last time?
[17:05] <dholbach> it could easily have been 5-6 months since we last met(?) - I can't quite remember
[17:05] <didrocks> dholbach: right, I was on holidays I guess, so unsure when it was (don't want to go back in time too far)
[17:05] <didrocks> ah ok :)
[17:05] <dholbach> right :)
[17:05] <Laney> Phone system settings, bugs, 14.10 release, GTK Mir backend, ...
[17:05] <Laney> More recently gnome updates + merges too, normal stuff I think
[17:05] <Laney> Some work on the unity 8 desktop stuff
[17:05] <didrocks> yeah, part of the team is working on getting some bits of gnome 3.14 updated
[17:06] <Laney> UDTC ;-)
[17:06] <didrocks> (and gtk with their new theme system)
[17:06] <dholbach> how is the unity8 desktop coming on?
[17:06] <didrocks> of course, desktop developer story as Laney told :)
[17:06] <dholbach> will the new gtk mean that we can update to the newest in gnome?
[17:06] <mhall119> Laney: I know there's been work to more cleanly separate upstream Gnome from Unity's needs, so that Ubuntu GNOME for example doesn't have conflicts. How has that work been going, is it completed or almost there?
[17:06] <didrocks> unity8: it's coming up nicely, if you saw recent posts, there is even some prototypes for multi-windows management with unity8
[17:06] <mhall119> I saw that :)
[17:07] <didrocks> we have a blueprint and some WIs for that image: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/desktop-1504-desktop-apps-on-mir
[17:07] <mhall119> was that from this UOS?
[17:07] <didrocks> the goal is to have all those apps running and working in the unity8 image by 15.04
[17:07] <didrocks> we didn't really have a session at UOS as it's a JFDI
[17:07] <mhall119> an ambitious goal
[17:07] <YokoZar> In the past there was a bit of a thorny issue where our derived-from-gnome packages were still using the gnome-* package namespace (and you couldn't easily get a more gnomey-gnome from packages), leading to some upset community folks.  Has this migration been basically completely done now?
[17:08] <didrocks> but basically we want people to be able to create touch apps and tests from this image
[17:08] <didrocks> hence Qtcreator
[17:08] <YokoZar> mhall119 basically beat me to that question
[17:08] <didrocks> and having importants apps
[17:08] <mhall119> YokoZar: type smaller bits :)
[17:08] <didrocks> so GNOME - Unity separation
[17:08] <didrocks> I doubts there will be more work on this until we switch to unity8 by default and dropp unity7 support
[17:08] <didrocks> there has been a fair share of decoupling
[17:09] <didrocks> to enable the ubuntu gnome team to update more on latest gnome version
[17:09] <YokoZar> Is Unity8 happening next release?
[17:09] <Laney> We'll be able to get to 3.14 I think
[17:09] <didrocks> YokoZar: we all wish, but a more realistic goal is by next LTS
[17:09] <mhall119> YokoZar: not default next release, no
[17:09] <didrocks> we will propose it as an option first anyway
[17:09] <didrocks> and then, when users will be convinced that unity 8 is better than unity 7
[17:09] <didrocks> we will switch
[17:10] <mhall119> didrocks: is the plan to keep Unity NEXT as a separate build, or will Unity 8 be an installable session on top of a regular install?
[17:10] <mhall119> in 15.04
[17:10] <didrocks> as Laney told, we are going to get Gnome 3.14 this cycle
[17:10] <didrocks> which is the current Gnome stable release
[17:10] <didrocks> mhall119: it's already available in a session on top of the regular one actually
[17:10] <mhall119> current, but usn't 3.16 coming soon?
[17:10] <didrocks> the separate build is just for people to try it more easily
[17:10] <didrocks> mhall119: soon being next April
[17:11] <YokoZar> didrocks: We do have 15.10 before 16.04 LTS as well.  Is that the time to drop unity7 so we can fully deal with this?  I'd hate to leave ubuntu-gnome stranded for another LTS
[17:11] <mhall119> didrocks: good to know, thanks
[17:11] <mhall119> didrocks: so, same as our next release :)
[17:11] <Laney> Who says they are stranded?
[17:11] <didrocks> mhall119: right :)
[17:11] <YokoZar> Well, alternative is package separation work of course
[17:11] <Laney> It would be extremely bad to fork every gnome package
[17:12] <YokoZar> No argument there
[17:12] <mhall119> do we have many gnome-* packages left that have Unity-specific changes which break GNOME?
[17:12] <cprofitt> YokoZar: I agree I would not like to see Ubuntu Gnome left is a bad position through another LTS
[17:12] <didrocks> they can do it, but it's a fair amount of work
[17:12] <didrocks> mhall119: well, there is gtk for example, what prevented update to 3.14 last cycle is that they rewrote the theme engine for example
[17:12] <didrocks> so the ubuntu theme is being redone identical with the new css rules as of now
[17:13] <YokoZar> I'm just worried about a situation where the not-gnome gnome-* packages linger because it was easier to remove them after dropping unity-7 but then we never get around to dropping unity-7 till release after LTS and so the separation work doesn't get done
[17:13] <didrocks> so, it's not only "unity", it's "ubuntu" as a whole
[17:13] <mhall119> didrocks: so is it more a case of "newest upstream breaks Unity" and now "Unity patches break newest upstream"?
[17:13] <mhall119> ok
[17:13] <didrocks> mhall119: exactly
[17:13] <didrocks> s/now/not/ I infer :)
[17:13] <mhall119> yes
[17:14] <dholbach> how are things going with the developer desktop? :)
[17:14] <mhall119> so that answers my questions and concerns about that, how about you YokoZar?
[17:15] <didrocks> we are starting to get a nice community and external contributors
[17:15] <YokoZar> didrocks: I suspect adapting the Ubuntu theme to work with latest Gnome is work the ubuntu-gnome folks are happy to do, whereas poking around with unity-specific patches maybe less so ;)
[17:15] <didrocks> YokoZar: hum, I doubt, they are using the upstream adwaita theme, not the ubuntu one
[17:15] <didrocks> YokoZar: so, they are not really concerned about it
[17:15] <YokoZar> ahh ok
[17:16] <Laney> It's more things like adapting UIs where Unity wants them to be different from the GNOME HIG which is in the way of updating
[17:16] <didrocks> yeah, so this cycle, we should have new ides supported for developers
[17:16] <mhall119> "ubuntu one" == "humanity" right?
[17:16] <didrocks> new environments as well
[17:16] <Laney> Not really so much distro patches
[17:16] <Laney> IMO
[17:16] <didrocks> and not protection for people using pip/ruby on their systems :)
[17:16] <didrocks> mhall119: well, we don't have headbars in our theme
[17:16] <didrocks> and some applications have empty menus with headbars
[17:16] <YokoZar> I have this fantasy of Ubuntu being in Gnome's good graces again
[17:16] <YokoZar> mhall119: I'm happy, though we should check in next release.
[17:17] <didrocks> so, it's broken in xfce, under unity…
[17:17] <YokoZar> (I kid ~ "good graces")
[17:17] <mhall119> YokoZar: +1
[17:17] <Laney> bleh
[17:17] <Laney> It's like the fantasy of an "Ubuntu and Debian" relationship
[17:17] <cprofitt> I would like to see that too YokoZar
[17:17] <Laney> really it's many to many
[17:17] <YokoZar> Exactly
[17:17] <cprofitt> +1 Laney
[17:17] <YokoZar> There is no Emperor of Gnome whose ring we can kiss :p
[17:19] <czajkowski> lol
[17:19] <mhall119> is there anythign the CC can to do assign the desktop team's work, either with Unity 8 or the Ubuntu<->GNOME relation?
[17:19] <didrocks> dholbach: so, if you can read in the interleaved discussions, yeah, things are going great on the developer desktop :)
[17:19] <mhall119> s/assign/assist/
[17:19]  * mhall119 can't type today
[17:20] <mhall119> (which is bad, because I'm coding today)
[17:20] <didrocks> mhall119: maybe some call for testing/trying the Unity 8 image?
[17:20] <didrocks> we know it can't be used on a daily bases
[17:20] <didrocks> and it's a tablet ui for now
[17:20] <didrocks> but we will be thrilled to have feedback, like on social media for instance
[17:20] <mhall119> didrocks: we can help promote that if there's a coordinated plan to help people get started and report problems
[17:20] <Laney> I saw mzanetti posted a video of some windowing support on G+
[17:20] <didrocks> and I think the core apps guys will be delighted to have early feedbacks on their applications running on a desktop :)
[17:20] <mhall119> didrocks: not a tablet UI for long, once mzanetti's patch lands
[17:20] <didrocks> right!
[17:21] <dholbach> very nice
[17:21] <didrocks> mhall119: we can build some plan around it and use the community team as a proxy?
[17:21] <mhall119> didrocks: community team and CC both can assist with getting the word out
[17:21] <didrocks> to spread the world with the loco council :)
[17:21] <didrocks> nice
[17:22] <czajkowski> didrocks: good idea
[17:22]  * mhall119 apologizes to everyone he just volunteered to do stuff
[17:22] <czajkowski> I'm the LoCo council will like that
[17:22] <didrocks> volounteering other people, that's always the way to go ;)
[17:22] <mhall119> it's the Ubuntu way ;)
[17:23] <dholbach> speaking of help - where do you feel the Desktop team would need most help right now?
[17:24] <didrocks> if we can get some people will to contribute testing and updating the new GNOME in particular on #ubuntu-desktop, that would be awesome
[17:24] <didrocks> who*
[17:24] <didrocks> want*
[17:24] <didrocks> ECANTTYPE tonight as well :)
[17:25] <mhall119> didrocks: we just need some specifics about what to test, how to test it, and how to report results
[17:25] <didrocks> I'm always personnaly welcoming feedback and patches on UDTC (the developer desktop)
[17:25] <didrocks> we will make some call for help and contribution publically on this next week
[17:25] <mhall119> a vague "test some things" isn't going to get us very far
[17:25]  * elfy suggests that balloons would be the one to co-ordinate testing
[17:25] <didrocks> mhall119: most of the coordination is done through #ubuntu-desktop
[17:25] <mhall119> didrocks: better to gave documentation, if we can get it
[17:26] <didrocks> so people jumping on IRC and telling they want to help, we can then redirect to what is needed at that point in time
[17:26] <mhall119> you're only on IRC 22.5 hours a day, afterall
[17:26] <didrocks> the thing is that between one week to the next one, it's not the same thing to test
[17:26] <didrocks> also, we resumed using WI and blueprints
[17:26] <didrocks> so, if people wants to help the desktop team, there is http://status.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-v/canonical-desktop-team.html
[17:26] <mhall119> I understand, but docs still work better and get more contributors, so if we can have them that would be great
[17:27] <didrocks> here are some WI that are not assigned
[17:27] <didrocks> they are free to grab and more specific
[17:27] <dholbach> great... I'm done with questions - does anyone else have any more questions?
[17:28]  * mhall119 has none
[17:28] <cprofitt> I have no more.
[17:28] <dholbach> thanks a lot didrocks and Laney!
[17:29] <mhall119> thank you both
[17:29] <elfy> thanks didrocks Laney
[17:29] <dholbach> .
[17:29] <didrocks> thanks everyone! :)
[17:29] <dholbach> #topic Catching up with the DMB
[17:29] <cprofitt> yes, thank you everyone.
[17:29] <Laney> thanks, hi
[17:29] <dholbach> welcome again Laney :)
[17:29] <dholbach> anyone else from the DMB around? :)
[17:30] <Laney> dunno, to find out you do this:
[17:30] <Laney> !dmb-ping
[17:30] <xnox> Laney: hola
[17:30] <xnox> dholbach: hi
[17:30] <Laney> tada!
[17:30] <mhall119> hello xnox, nice to see you're still around :)
[17:31] <dholbach> wow, I didn't know that command :)
[17:31] <xnox> mhall119: i beg your pardon, how dare you?! =) nah, all is cool.
[17:31] <mhall119> :)
[17:31] <bdmurray> hi
[17:32] <dholbach> how are you? how are things with the DMB?
[17:33] <Laney> Same ol'
[17:33] <YokoZar> Heh
[17:33] <Laney> We have meetings, we approve most people, impossible to get people to reply to email threads
[17:33] <Laney> :P
[17:33] <dholbach> ah yes, I remember we talked about the mail situation the last time
[17:33] <mhall119> Laney: applicants or DMB members?
[17:33] <dholbach> do you feel things have improved there?
[17:34] <YokoZar> Is our rate of developer growth about the same as it's always been?
[17:34] <Laney> members, no
[17:34] <dholbach> or is it also "same ol'"?
[17:34] <Laney> It's pretty slow now
[17:34] <Laney> CI train removed one reason people used to have for applying I think
[17:34] <Laney> but the new system won't be as backdoory so we may see it come back a bit
[17:35] <Laney> ("CI airline")
[17:35] <Laney> I estimate we have someone at 3 out of every 4 meetings
[17:36] <dholbach> do you know if people who get their changes auto-landed apply for membership very often?
[17:36] <Laney> I know that they don't do that through us
[17:36] <Laney> at least I can't think of anyone like that
[17:37] <dholbach> ok
[17:38] <Laney> DMB has never been a popular route for membership anyway
[17:38] <dholbach> how about the voting-by-email situation? does this go better than it used to?
[17:38] <Laney> No
[17:38] <Laney> We have three threads ongoing now, hard to get the board to reply
[17:39] <czajkowski> :/
[17:39] <Laney> I think we might have to start refusing to handle any application on email
[17:39] <dholbach> maybe somebody should use the "dmb-ping" command on IRC more often :-)
[17:39] <Laney> but our meeting times are crap for people not in the US or Europe
[17:39] <dholbach> right, that makes sense
[17:39] <Laney> The two email applicants are in Asia and Australasia
[17:39] <Laney> so.
[17:40] <czajkowski> Laney: could you review applicants in the meeting online and post them results or do you need the applicants there in person ?
[17:40] <Laney> It's the interview aspect
[17:40] <dholbach> but the meeting time slot could be used for that, no?
[17:40] <czajkowski> or else make a once off special meeting when -meeting is free and everyone comes online early/late and reviews the applicatns ?
[17:40] <Laney> Only if the applicant is there
[17:40] <czajkowski> not saying it's needed every month but may deal with people not answering emails :)
[17:40] <dholbach> but you could use the meeting time for sending the mail
[17:41] <Laney> you'd think
[17:41] <czajkowski> dholbach: +!
[17:41] <dholbach> writing the mail
[17:41] <dholbach> that should really be possible
[17:41] <dholbach> :)
[17:41] <Laney> https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/devel-permissions/2014-November/thread.html
[17:41] <Laney> Might not be talking to the right person. :)
[17:42] <dholbach> I wasn't blaming you in the slightest
[17:42] <Laney> I know, I'm just saying that I don't know what solutions I can offer
[17:42] <dholbach> right
[17:43] <czajkowski> Laney: perhaps try dholbach suggestio of mail during meeting and add it to the agenda and see if that helps?
[17:43] <czajkowski> Laney: do you usually have enough board members on hand at a meeting ?
[17:43] <Laney> Could try that
[17:43] <Laney> here's 10 minutes of silence, go email
[17:43] <dholbach> yes, that'd be nice
[17:43] <Laney> We usually scrape 4 people
[17:44] <czajkowski> Laney: so do you think you need more members on the board also ?
[17:44] <czajkowski> Laney: try adn see and let us know :)
[17:44] <czajkowski> please
[17:44] <mhall119> or regional boards like we did for Ubuntu membership?
[17:44] <czajkowski> not sure that would help the DMB given some areas are higher than others for developers
[17:45] <mhall119> true, but there might be enough current members for a asian/oceana board
[17:45] <dholbach> I know that it's not easy to make up your mind and that with the MC we had long email debates as well
[17:46] <dholbach> but it's nice if everyone tries hard to keep the ball rolling
[17:46] <YokoZar> Reasonable
[17:46] <dholbach> and not keep the applicants waiting unnecesarily
[17:46] <Laney> I know that everyone understands this
[17:47] <Laney> Still somehow it never gets to the top
[17:47] <dholbach> thanks a lot for your help, Laney
[17:47] <mhall119> thanks Laney, hopefull the "send email during meeting time" will help
[17:47] <YokoZar> Thank you Laney
[17:48] <dholbach> does anyone have any other questions?
[17:48] <elfy> not me
[17:48] <Laney> I want to discuss/inform about you about something in private
[17:48] <Laney> do you have a channel?
[17:48] <czajkowski> Laney: yes let me dm
[17:49] <dholbach> all rightie... anything else?
[17:49] <dholbach> #topic Any other business?
[17:50] <czajkowski> I think we should at some point
[17:50] <czajkowski> address the issues being brought up on community list
[17:50] <czajkowski> should we have a dediated meeting to it ?
[17:50] <mhall119> which one(s)?
[17:50] <czajkowski> mhall119: the long threads going on right now re governance
[17:51] <elfy> czajkowski: I'd say yes
[17:51] <dholbach> I responded O:-)
[17:51] <mhall119> ah, those, I'm not sure the discussions have progressed to the point where we can make any decisions yet, so a dedicated meeting in the near future might be best
[17:51] <dholbach> yeah, might be a good idea
[17:51] <dholbach> maybe let's give the discussion another week?
[17:51] <czajkowski> mhall119: well I think people need to understand it's also ok to bring these discussions to us
[17:52] <YokoZar> Agreed ~tabling, I gotta go soon
[17:52] <elfy> czajkowski: yep
[17:52] <czajkowski> blog posts and mailing lsits arent always the best way to engage
[17:52] <mhall119> czajkowski: we (the CC) can also join hte discussion in the ML
[17:52] <czajkowski> and many of the comments from people are leaving people alienated
[17:52] <czajkowski> which isn;t good
[17:52] <czajkowski> mhall119: some have already
[17:52] <czajkowski> mhall119: but this is also a forum for discussion!
[17:52] <mhall119> I know, I just wanted to restate that
[17:53] <czajkowski> ok I propose we have an irc meeting next week
[17:53] <czajkowski> instead of our weekly G+
[17:53] <mhall119> same bat time, same bat channel?
[17:53] <czajkowski> and that way the community can take part and also it's logged so people read it
[17:53] <czajkowski> yes
[17:53] <czajkowski> and we post it to the fridge
[17:53] <mhall119> oh wait, that's Thanksgiving day in the USA
[17:53] <dholbach> we just need to announce it
[17:53] <czajkowski> so people can see and also know the date/time
[17:53] <czajkowski> :/
[17:54] <czajkowski> ok so December 4th ?as a large chunk of the CC are USA
[17:54] <mhall119> do we have catch-ups scheduled for the 4th already?
[17:54] <elfy> yes
[17:54] <dholbach> (all right... I need to rush now - but you should all be irc meeting chairs, so you can end the meeting as well)
[17:54] <dholbach> see you!
[17:54] <czajkowski> mhall119: possibly but I think this topic is worth rescheduling don't you ?
[17:54] <mhall119> thanks dholbach
[17:54] <elfy> edubuntu and lubuntu
[17:55] <mhall119> czajkowski: that's fine, I'm also okay to have this discussion +/- 1 hour from that meeting
[17:55] <mhall119> but I know that might not work for others
[17:55] <czajkowski> mhall119: much alter in EU then
[17:55] <czajkowski> :)
[17:55] <czajkowski> timezones eh
[17:55] <elfy> :)
[17:55] <mhall119> we should get rid of those
[17:55] <czajkowski> elfy: can you contact and ask them to reschedule please?
[17:55]  * mhall119 adds that to the CC agenda
[17:56] <czajkowski> and then we can use the dec 4th meeting to discuss issues
[17:56] <elfy> czajkowski: well I can mail them - I never get replies from the majority of people
[17:56] <czajkowski> lets also see if we can get sabdfl to the meeting also
[17:57] <mhall119> czajkowski: we'll be doing this on IRC right, not a hangout?
[17:57] <pleia2> fwiw, thanksgiving I am around
[17:57] <czajkowski> mhall119: aye
[17:57] <mhall119> ok
[17:57] <mhall119> pleia2: you shouldn't be :-P
[17:58] <pleia2> I get caught up on my ubuntu work during work holidays :)
[17:58] <pleia2> it's just MJ and me, not really a big holiday for us
[17:58] <mhall119> more turkey to go around then
[17:58] <czajkowski> right AOB folks ?
[17:58] <elfy> not from me
[17:59] <czajkowski> #action elfy contact boards and reschedule 4 Dec meeting
[17:59] <meetingology> ACTION: elfy contact boards and reschedule 4 Dec meeting
[17:59] <mhall119> none from me

[12:35] !lilo:*! Update to channel guidelines: http://freenode.net/channel_guidelines.shtml#sensitivematerial
[05:40] !lilo:*! Adding a couple more patches to the testnet, restarting
[05:52] <Burgundavia> ogra, I see pitti has rejected mediawiki, hmm...
[06:41] <jsgotangco> main inclusion reports?
[06:41] <Burgundavia> indeed
[06:42] <Burgundavia> the old moin/mediawiki stuff
[06:42] <jsgotangco> where is the url
[06:42] <jsgotangco> i wanna see
[06:44] <Burgundavia> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuMainInclusionQueue
[06:44] <Burgundavia> hmm, seems he accepted it
[06:45] <Burgundavia> oh, he got overruled
[06:45] <Burgundavia> by sabdfl probably
[06:46] <jsgotangco> wow gcompris came in
[06:46] <Burgundavia> pitti has been ripping his hair out over the edubuntu stuff
[06:46] <jsgotangco> nvu got rejected
[06:46] <Burgundavia> contained some mozilla code
[06:46] <jsgotangco> ohh right
[06:46] <jsgotangco> and mozilla got dropped
[06:46] <Burgundavia> didn't want to maintain 2 copies of the same code
[06:46] <Burgundavia> no
[06:47] <Burgundavia> it acutally contained mozilla code, as opposed to linking to tit
[06:47] <jsgotangco> i thought it was dropped to universe
[06:47] <jsgotangco> (mozilla)
[06:47] <Burgundavia> nope
[06:47] <Burgundavia> that was the plan, but ff lacks some stuff for linking against, apparently
[06:48] <Burgundavia> FF 1.5 is going to be fun
[06:48] <jsgotangco> lol at pitti's comment on mediawiki
[06:49] <jsgotangco> he got the smackdown
[06:49] <Burgundavia> I feel sorry for him, but mediawiki is trully better for end users
[06:49] <jsgotangco> yes
[06:49] <jsgotangco> unfortunately, mediawiki does poorly on backporting fixes to old version
[06:50] <jsgotangco> just says everyone to upgrade
[06:50] <Burgundavia> mediawiki development is a mess
[06:50] <jsgotangco> its an awesome app for a rotten development language though
[06:51] <Burgundavia> the mediawiki developers really don't mind if someone writes them a better app in another langauge I am told
[06:51] <jsgotangco> Moin is good, it just needs a facelift really
[06:52] <Burgundavia> and a better markup language
[06:52] <Burgundavia> it is powerful but sucks for basic stuff, like linking
[06:53] <jsgotangco> did you finish the inclusion reports for edubuntu?
[06:53] <Burgundavia> ogra did in the end
[06:53] <Burgundavia> I did about a 3rd of them
[06:54] <jsgotangco> i wanted to help just didnt know where to start back then
[06:55] <Burgundavia> they were at the high-end of my skill level
[06:55] <Burgundavia> I left the server ones to ogra
[07:34] <highvoltage> ja
[07:34] <highvoltage> sorry, wrong window.
[08:48] <highvoltage> morning JaneW
[08:57] <JaneW> hello highvoltage
[08:57] <JaneW> highvoltage: did you reorg the wiki page?
[08:57] <JaneW> highvoltage:  if so, thanks :)
[08:58] <jsgotangco> mpt did
[09:07] <JaneW> oic thanks
[09:07] <JaneW> I wasn;t subscribed after the page moved...
[09:07] <JaneW> but not I looked at recent changes (d'oh)
[09:09] <JaneW> i think it was Rafi...
[09:17] <highvoltage> JaneW: i do have some good news though.
[09:18] <highvoltage> JaneW: elmo got my login sorted out last night, so we'll probably have some kind of web page by the end of the weekend.
[09:18] <highvoltage> JaneW: wiki will move to wiki.edubuntu.org, right?
[09:29] <JaneW> woohoo - yes I guess so, yay
[09:30] <JaneW> highvoltage: why weren't you at the wine tasting last night? (which actually turned out to be champagne tasting)
[09:30] <JaneW> *hick*
[09:34] <highvoltage> JaneW: had some other pressing issues.
[09:39] <JaneW> ok
[09:39] <JaneW> well we had an impromptu 'Office Idols' session
[09:39] <JaneW> and Vicki was Randall ;)
[09:48] <highvoltage> thank God i wasn't there then.
[09:59] <JaneW> lol
[10:00] <JaneW> highvoltage: do you have admin rights on the wiki pages or do I need to ask ... elmo
[10:00] <highvoltage> JaneW: elmo
[10:00] <JaneW> ok thanks
[10:03] <JaneW> ok I have mailed elmo
[10:06] <JaneW> I am trying to insert some educational quotes and need to edit the FortuneCookie page.
[10:07] <jsgotangco> "don't judge a book by its cover"
[10:07] <jsgotangco> hehehe
[10:07] <jsgotangco> "school sucks"
[10:07] <JaneW> hehe
[10:07] <jsgotangco> "everything i needed to learn, i learned in kindergarten"
[10:07] <JaneW> shall I add those...?
[10:07] <JaneW> ;)
[10:08] <JaneW> my fav so far is... When I think about all the crap I learned in high school . . . it's a wonder I can think at all. - Paul Simon
[10:08] <jsgotangco> rock rock rock rock rock' n roll high school
[10:08] <jsgotangco> (the ramones)
[10:09] <JaneW> We don't need not education!
[10:09] <JaneW> s/not/no
[10:09] <jsgotangco> lol
[10:09] <jsgotangco> "hey teacher, leave those kids alone!"
[10:31] <JaneW> I have put up what I have at http://www.edubuntu.org/FortuneCookies2 (feel free to add to this list) - once I have the access rights I will move it to http://www.edubuntu.org/FortuneCookies, and they will display on the front page...
[10:38] <JaneW> added another from our very own Mark Shuttleworth ;)
[11:01] <jsgotangco> can i put "will code for food?"
[11:01] <jsgotangco> hehe
[11:02] <JaneW> course
[11:04] <jsgotangco> "if i don't see edubuntu in october, ogra will feel the wrath of JaneW" - JaneW
[11:05] <JaneW> or "if i don't see edubuntu in october, ogra and JaneW will feel the wrath of mdz" - mdz
[11:05] <jsgotangco> "if i don't see edubuntu in october, you guys are screwed.." - sabdfl
[11:07] <JaneW> lmao
[11:07] <JaneW> that's the one
[11:09] <jsgotangco> alright its time to see if our new build works (currently installing)
[11:13] <jsgotangco> It's true that I dropped out of college to start Microsoft, but I was at Harvard for three years before dropping out?and I'd love to have the time to go back. As I've said before, nobody should drop out of college unless they believe they face the opportunity of a lifetime. And even then they should reconsider.
[11:13] <JaneW> pah
[11:13] <JaneW> bet he was paid to say that...

[11:18] <ogra> JaneW, today my DSL dropped completely... :(
[11:18] <ogra> i cant stay online all the time, but will be here every hour or so... (isdn is very expensive without contract here)
[11:19] <jsgotangco> JaneW, you don't have to be so upset about it
[11:19] <JaneW> ogra: ok
[11:19] <jsgotangco> isdn? wow
[11:19] <jsgotangco> last time i heard about it is like 4 years ago
[11:19] <JaneW> jsgotangco: upset?
[11:19] <jsgotangco> Men are more intelligent, professor says
[11:19] <JaneW> jsgotangco: we still have ISDN here...
[11:20] <JaneW> jsgotangco: who said I was upset...
[11:20] <ogra> isdn is great, i love it... you just cant get sane contracts for it in germany
[11:20] <jsgotangco> its too expensive even in my place that it died a natural death in the mainstream internet use
[11:20] <ogra> i'd rather bundle 10 isdn lines than buy a DSL line if i had the choice
[11:21] <jsgotangco> but yes isdn is actually much cleaner
[11:21] <JaneW> argh I can't access my mailbox - why!?
[11:21] <ogra> but they bill minute prices for it... no flatrates or any other sane contracts
[11:21] <jsgotangco> because men made it?
[11:21] <JaneW> probably...
[11:22] <JaneW> :P
[11:22] <highvoltage> JaneW: my mail is fine.
[11:22] <JaneW> highvoltage: It was using mail fine earlier, then it started failing
[11:23] <jsgotangco> ogra, it seems the daily edubuntu for today is again broken in stage 2
[11:23] <jsgotangco> but i can do a workaround by killing the usual aptitude
[11:23] <JaneW> ping workis...
[11:23] <JaneW> works
[11:24] <ogra> jsgotangco, thats ver strange, where does it hang exactly, did you look at the console this time ?
[11:24] <highvoltage> what's the best way for a user to report a bug they only experience in ubuntu's openoffice package? someone just asked me, and i'm not quite sure.
[11:25] <jsgotangco> yes it stops when it wants to install/download from untrusted sources
[11:25] <jsgotangco> around 10%
[11:31] <jsgotangco> ogra, what build is your (breezy) edubuntu in your ubuntu shell account?
[11:31] <ogra> aug 18th
[11:32] <jsgotangco> hmm it seems it downloaded from the network as i have gdm
[11:32] <ogra> i test installed it several times, the dailys still suffer ubuntu breakage... (and todays suffers my broken DSL, since i couldnt upload my fixes before the build yesterday)
[11:33] <jsgotangco> ogra, aug. 18 build is pretty solid
[11:34] <ogra> yep
[11:34] <ogra> thats why its so sad that it dissapeared from the archive... it was a PITA to get it up again :) but at least we have something to test...
[11:36] <jsgotangco> ok im testing this on a bigger server downloading the meta packages now
[11:36] <jsgotangco> im in a friends lab in school
[11:36] <jsgotangco> heh
[11:37] <ogra> yay
[11:37] <ogra> i had some ideas for ldm prettyfication... i'll try them today
[11:37] <jsgotangco> (its a local college has 20 pcs)
[11:38] <jsgotangco> i did a talk this morning, pimped to the faculty to let me play around a bit till 7pm
[11:40] <jsgotangco> DanielC, hi
[11:40] <DanielC> hi
[11:40] <DanielC> DHCP hates me :-(
[11:41] <DanielC> I can't start the DHCP server. It says that my dhcpd.conf is wrong I think.
[11:41] <DanielC> But I don't know anything about dhcpd.conf. I sent a detailed message to the list.
[11:41] <jsgotangco> give me a minute im in a lab i'll see what's wrong
[11:41] <DanielC> ok, thank you.
[11:42] <ogra> highvoltage, i think i had a idea tonight for a kind of xdmcp to connect to different servers through ldm... lets see if it works as i thought ... (i have no second server to test though)
[11:42] <ogra> highvoltage, but it will only work with edubuntu ltsp...
[11:44] <jsgotangco> hmmm it took postfix?
[12:19] <jsgotangco> hmm it takes a while
[12:19] <jsgotangco> wonder what is wrong...
[12:22] <jsgotangco> brb
[12:24] <JaneW> 200 ppl joined our mailing list - but with a few unsubsribes as well, we now have 190 members...
[12:24] <DanielC> And none of them seem to know how to configure dhcpd.conf  :-(
[12:26] <DanielC> ifconfig also says that eth1 doesn't have an address or netmask (it should be <IP_ADDRESS> - static, since that's where the DHCP server is supposed to listen).
[12:26] <DanielC> Maybe the problem is in /etc/network/interfaces
[12:26] <DanielC> but I don't know what else to try there.
[12:27] <DanielC> Does anyone know how to use ifconfig to assign an address and netmask to eth1? I've read the man page, but I'm not any closer to a solution than before.
[12:29] <JaneW> where's ogra?
[12:29] <DanielC> no idea...
[12:29] <JaneW> DanielC: am I correct that this is not an edubuntu specific question (or is it?)
[12:29] <DanielC> I don't know :(
[12:29] <DanielC> It might be.
[12:30] <DanielC> It might be something about the way edubuntu is configured. I would guess that's what it is.
[12:31] <JaneW> DanielC: I don;t know much about it, but when I was fidling here at home I had to set up a static connection with default gateway
[12:32] <JaneW> DanielC: once it was succesfully conected I cahnged the setting to DHCP and it was fine after that...
[12:32] <DanielC> I'm not sure I follow what you just said...
[12:32] <JaneW> not sure why, but it was like it couldn't find the default gateway without being told the first time *shrug*
[12:33] <DanielC> I can connect to the internet fine (this is on eth0). My problems are on the other hard (eth1). The one that connects to the thin clients.
[12:33] <DanielC> the other /card/
[12:34] <JaneW> ok
[02:09] <DanielC> Ok. My thin clients can get an IP from the DHCP server, but they won't boot. On the client I see the message "Loading <IP_ADDRESS>:/ltsp/pxelinux.0" and it just hangs there.
[02:10] <DanielC>  /ltsp/pxelinux.0 doesn't exist.
[02:10] <DanielC> But /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/pxelinux.0 does exist (on the server).
[02:11] <DanielC> So I guess that's the right one. But I don't know where to configure the path for the kernel image to boot from.
[02:11] <DanielC> Does anyone know?
[02:12] <DanielC> I tried in dhcpd.conf but that wasn't it.
[02:34] <DanielC> Does anyone know when ogra or jsgotangco is coming back? :-)
[03:05] <Petaris> hrm
[03:06] <Petaris> I am getting a segmentation fault during client boot at /etc/rcS.d/S02mountvirtfs
[03:09] <Petaris> rebooting doesn't seem to help
[03:09] <Petaris> :/
[03:11] <JaneW> :/
[03:13] <Petaris> Has Ogra been around latly?
[03:14] <mpt> ogra was here yesterday
[03:15] <JaneW> he was in this am
[03:15] <JaneW> he is having problems with his ISDN line
[03:15] <JaneW> he is responding to e-mail ...
[03:22] <Petaris> ok
[03:22] <Petaris> hrm
[03:23] <Petaris> This client issue only happened after I upgraded the ltsp-build-client stuff yesterday
[03:51] <Petaris> Not only are they not letting me move files from one volume to another, they are also striping the permissions off  :(
[03:51] <Petaris> of my users folders
[03:51] <Petaris> I will be resetting permissions all day now
[03:52] <Petaris> ;(
[04:02] <highvoltage> Petaris: yes, with sygwin ;)
[04:02] <highvoltage> (i think)
[04:03] <Petaris> cygwin, but I meant nativly
[04:03] <Petaris> I should have just moved all of these user folders onto a linux server
[04:04] <Petaris> It would have been much simpler over all
[04:09] <highvoltage> Petaris: or you could have tarred it up first, tar keeps your permissions
[04:13] <Petaris> hrm
[04:13] <Petaris> but I think I would have still hit the permissions errors
[04:13] <Petaris> even though they are set correctly


[02:46] <khoover> heeeeeeeeeeeelp
[02:47] <khoover> bloody touchpad isn't working, and yet it seems like xorg's picking it up
[03:10] <bregma> khoover, if you install the xinput package and run 'xinput list' does it show something that looks like the touchpad?
[03:11] <khoover> yeah, i'm looking at my xorg.conf.d/synaptics file, there's only an entry for "touchpad catchall"
[03:16] <khoover> bregma, trippy bit is, if i look at the xorg.0 log, seems like the thing boots up fine.
[03:25] <bregma> your xorg.conf.d/synaptics sounds right
[03:25] <bregma> si xinput list shows your touchpad device?
[03:25] <bregma> s/si/so/
[03:25] <khoover> yeah
[03:26] <bregma> if you run "xinput test 15" (or whatever the device number is) does it spit out numbers?
[03:27] <khoover> yep, all sorts
[03:27] <bregma> well, X is seeing it and treating it right from the sounds of it
[03:27] <khoover> buuuut, it's not working....have a usb mouse plugged in, it works fine
[03:28] <bregma> and nothing else has grabbed it and not let go
[03:28] <khoover> doubtful, rebooted and it wouldn't work
[03:28] <bregma> you're right, it's most odd
[03:28] <khoover> not even evtest could get anything
[03:29] <khoover> it's an elantech, but i'm seeing synaptics all over
[03:30] <bregma> synaptics is just the name of the generic touchpad driver in x.org
[03:30] <bregma> evtest may not give you output in an X window if X has the device open, you would have to run it as root from a non-X console window (ctl-alt-f1 etc)
[03:30] <khoover> huh? thought it was a specific manufacturer, like alps
[03:31] <khoover> ctrl alt f2?
[03:31] <bregma> yes, like kleenex and xerox
[03:31] <bregma> ctrl alt f2 would also give you a non-X console to run evtest in
[03:31] <khoover> and nothing logged
[03:31] <khoover> or, least, don't think anything logged
[03:32] <bregma> are you sure you have the right /dev/input/event device?
[03:32] <bregma> X gets its input from the dev node, and if xinput shows motion events, evtest should
[03:33] <khoover> wait, xinput?
[03:33] <khoover> not xlist?
[03:34] <bregma> hmm, I don;t have xlist on my system, but I did say xinput
[03:36] <khoover> sorry, xinput list
[03:39] <khoover> yeah, even when i do test, nothing
[03:40] <khoover> works for everything else
[03:40] <khoover> bregma,
[03:42] <bregma> hmm, if evtest and xinput test show no data, the kernel is not sending data -- is this a laptop with a 'disable touchpad' function key?
[03:42] <khoover> i dunno
[03:42] <khoover> crap, yes. -_-
[03:42] <khoover> just realized i hit it cause i had no idea what it was
[03:42] <bregma> heh
[03:42] <khoover> while my laptop was frozen
[03:43] <khoover> this is why they ask, "is it plugged in"
[03:43] <bregma> problem solved?
[03:44] <khoover> yep
[03:47] <khoover> can now leave #ubuntu...that place is chaos
[03:47] <bregma> absolutely
[04:29] <willwh> it is
[04:30] <willwh> it's horrible :)
[04:30] <willwh> I don't know how people get help in there tbh
[04:30] <willwh> I've tried a couple of times - but it's mostly newbs screaming, dpkg-reconfigure X
[04:30] <willwh> hahaha
[04:30] <DarwinSurvivor> bahahaha, disable-button 1, khoover 0 :D
[04:32] <DarwinSurvivor> I think the #ubuntu channel needs to be a triage channel, then send people to #ubuntu-x11, #ubuntu-packagin, #ubuntu-drivers, etc for real help. There's just WAY too many people in there!
[04:32] <willwh> yes
[04:32] <willwh> that is actually quite a good idea
[04:32] <DarwinSurvivor> do you know about how many "helpers" are in there?
[04:32] <willwh> no idea whatsoever
[04:33] <DarwinSurvivor> that system only works if there are enough helpers to cover a few more channels
[04:33] <willwh> yes
[04:33] <DarwinSurvivor> if it's 100 helpees vs 4 helpers, there's not much that can done :(
[04:33] <DarwinSurvivor> *be done
[04:33] <willwh> I would happily idle in ubuntu-packaging :D
[14:49] <BluesKaj> Howdy all
[23:06] <dscassel> Oh yeah, there's an IRC meeting next week...
[23:06] <dscassel> Anything anyone wants to talk about?  I'm writing up the agenda.
[23:13] <DarwinSurvivor> never been to an ubuntu-ca meeting, what kind of stuff gets discussed
