[06:11] <ashams> Hi sherif o/
[06:11] <ashams> Good morning
[06:12] <ashams> may I know which release is this? 11.04, 11.10 or what?
[06:12] <sherif> gm ashams
[06:12] <sherif> it's 11.10
[06:14] <ashams> sherif, I found this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1863624
[06:14] <ashams> would you take a look, plz
[06:16] <sherif> ok
[06:16] <sherif> let me check
[06:19] <sherif> thx :)
[06:20] <sherif> it will help ashams
[06:20] <ashams> cool
[06:20] <sherif> will try to adjust
[06:20] <ashams> ok
[06:20] <ashams> good luck
[06:20] <sherif> funny thing i had it installed before
[06:20] <sherif> thx
[06:20] <sherif> another issue
[06:20] <ashams> ok, shoot
[06:20] <ashams> what is it?
[06:21] <sherif> flash application not workin fast on chromium
[06:21] <ashams> is it fast on firefox?
[06:21] <sherif> didnt try
[06:21] <sherif> but i think it will be fast
[06:22] <sherif> it works well on windows 7 on chrome
[06:22] <ashams> so it's a chrom problem
[06:22] <sherif> i guess
[06:23] <ashams> I think it's ok on win7 and not on linux because chrom doesn't run natively on linux
[06:23] <ashams> it uses it's customized-wine
[06:23] <ashams> to run cross platforms
[06:23] <sherif> well i use chromium not chrome
[06:23] <ashams> so it's normal to be slower than on win
[06:23] <ashams> I know, I just abbreviate it :)
[06:24] <sherif> so i shud install ff again?
[06:24] <ashams> why? it's not it's problem
[06:24] <ashams> try to make chromium a bit lighter
[06:24] <sherif> firefox
[06:24] <sherif> huh
[06:24] <sherif> how
[06:24] <ashams> is chromium runs fast in general?
[06:25] <sherif> yup
[06:25] <sherif> very fast
[06:25] <sherif> just flash games on FB
[06:25] <sherif> not workin
[06:25] <sherif> very slow
[06:25] <ashams> ah
[06:25] <ashams> that's weird
[06:25] <ashams> let search on this
[06:25] <sherif> i have adobe flash installed
[06:26] <sherif> there r 2 adobe flash plugins in store
[06:26] <sherif> do u know which one to install
[06:27] <sherif> the installed one is for mozilla
[06:27] <ashams> sherif, and the other one for what?
[06:27] <ashams> I mean, what's the differance between them?
[06:27] <sherif> dunno
[06:27] <sherif> its just weird
[06:28] <sherif> look at this
[06:28] <sherif> as I read here (see link below) - it's some trouble with cookies... seems like it's true
[06:28] <sherif> http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Chrome/thread?tid=3a90178b2b76e3ec&hl=en
[06:28] <sherif> I have:
[06:28] <sherif> google chrome 15....
[06:28] <sherif> ubuntu 11.10 x64
[06:28] <sherif> solution:
[06:28] <sherif> 1) open incognito mode in chrome
[06:28] <sherif> 2) go to www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer
[06:28] <sherif> 3) choose your system (ubuntu x64)
[06:28] <sherif> 4) and install (and it's should install properly!)
[06:28] <sherif> 5) restart main chrome window
[06:28] <sherif> 6) voala...
[06:28] <sherif> hope it's will be halpful for some one :)
[06:28] <sherif> wut is incognito mode?
[06:31] <ashams> it's like safe mode on ff, or some
[06:31] <sherif> yh
[06:32] <sherif> now im lost
[06:32] <sherif> many versions to download
[06:32] <ashams> ah no, it's like the private browsing
[06:32] <sherif> yum for linux
[06:33] <ashams> where is that?
[06:33] <sherif> yh
[06:33] <sherif> when i opened the page in that mode
[06:33] <sherif> now it ask me to select version to install
[06:33] <sherif> first choice YUM for linux
[06:34] <sherif> theres apt for ubuntu 10.04+
[06:34] <sherif> i think this is the right one
[06:34] <sherif> but im 10.11
[06:34] <ashams> yes
[06:34] <ashams> it's 10.04+
[06:35] <ashams> means above 10.04
[06:36] <sherif> ok
[06:36] <sherif> i selected this
[06:36] <sherif> now it says my browser Firefox
[06:36] <sherif> lol
[06:36] <sherif> n cant change it
[06:37] <ashams> what?.............
[06:37] <ashams> wierd
[06:37] <ashams> would you remove that flash and visit youtube
[06:38] <ashams> some utube vid will tell you u don't have flashplayer and will link you
[06:38] <sherif> r u sure
[06:39] <ashams> NO :)
[06:39] <sherif> good
[06:39] <sherif> :D
[06:39] <ashams> haha let's ruin it :P
[06:40] <ashams> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w_WW-DHqR3c
[06:41] <sherif> wut is HUD?
[06:41] <ashams> Heads Up Display
[06:42] <ashams> a new way that would be perfect if you hate menus
[06:42] <ashams> focus on items that you want to reach, instead of where is it
[06:42] <sherif> Using the HUD to change status. Totally useless. The click is faster.
[06:42] <sherif> well
[06:43] <ashams> haha :)
[06:43] <ashams> I shouldn't give you that link :P
[06:43] <ashams> http://www.muktware.com/articles/3244/ubuntus-hud-explained-why-its-great-idea

[06:43] <sherif> dont wont go further now
[06:43] <sherif> want
[06:44] <ashams> you won't choose, just will find yourself hungry to try things :)

[22:48] <thelinuxer> ashams: in 6 month i think ...
[22:48] <thelinuxer> i should receive an email soon
[22:48] <thelinuxer> they send an email before your membership expire
[22:48] <ashams> yeah, a month before?
[22:49] <thelinuxer> don't actually remember
[22:49] <thelinuxer> ashams: bas eshme3na ya3ny ?
[22:50] <ashams> thelinuxer, to collect some new testimonials :P
[22:51] <thelinuxer> ana gamed awi we mesh me7tag :P
[22:52] <thelinuxer> el sara7a i was expected to be a DM(debian maintainer) by now
[22:52] <thelinuxer> bas i really didn't have enough time to pull this off
[22:52] <ashams> what you wanted to maintain?
[22:52] <thelinuxer> nothing specifically .. just wanted to get into debian development somehow
[22:53] <thelinuxer> this would make me a member in ubuntu too btw
[22:53] <thelinuxer> if I am a DD (debian developer) I am automatically a UD
[22:53] <ashams> dude, it takes a long time till you feel comfortable with things in there
[22:54] <ashams> so, you should start now
[22:54] <thelinuxer> i started a few month ago
[22:54] <thelinuxer> and i have a sponsor
[22:54] <thelinuxer> and i maintain a package there kaman
[22:54] <thelinuxer> bas i am still not good enough to be a DM
[22:55] <ashams> it's just few steps, you can't stop now
[22:55] <ashams> !
[22:55] <thelinuxer> bos the package I am maintaining to really really simple
[22:56] <thelinuxer> and used by a small set of people
[22:56] <ashams> yalla 3alashan tezaker leena
[22:56] <ashams> what language?
[22:56] <thelinuxer> GTK
[22:56] <ashams> c++
[22:56] <thelinuxer> I am not the developer
[22:56] <ashams> ah
[22:56] <thelinuxer> i am just the maintainer
[22:56] <thelinuxer> wait
[22:56] <thelinuxer> http://packages.debian.org/sid/gdigi
[22:57] <ashams> but some ti,es you might need to fix some bugs to catch with some release or so
[22:57] <ashams> ah
[22:57] <thelinuxer> this package is for managing device call "guitar effects processors" and specially for the DigiTech brand
[22:58] <ashams> coool
[22:58] <thelinuxer> so what is added mostly is support for new devices, which I don't have
[22:58] <ashams> aaaaah
[22:58] <ashams> now i got it
[22:58] <thelinuxer> and all of it is just midi msgs, as the device is seen as an external sound card
[22:58] <thelinuxer> so adding new devices isn't a really big hassle and would be tested by the contributor him/herself
[22:59] <ashams> your name is there: http://packages.qa.debian.org/g/gdigi.html
[22:59] <thelinuxer> yes I am the maintainer
[22:59] <ashams> dude, jump to the real work
[22:59] <ashams> go to ~motu and get some mentorship
[23:00] <thelinuxer> i don't think this pkg will ever leave testing :D
[23:00] <ashams> hahahah lol
[23:00] <thelinuxer> i just read in the UDW scripts that they are swamped and can't mentor anymore devs
[23:00] <thelinuxer> UDW logs*
[23:00] <ashams> shit
[23:01] <ashams> the same happened with bug squad
[23:01] <ashams> I hate this
[23:01] <thelinuxer> yes of course
[23:01] <thelinuxer> small number of experienced devs and a lot who want to learn
[23:01] <thelinuxer> expected ...
[23:02] <ashams> I was thinking of a modular general mentorship program, but no one listened
[23:02] <ashams> they said no discussion now, it's vacation
[23:02] <thelinuxer> :S
[23:02] <ashams> it was jan 1st
[23:02] <thelinuxer> tayeb I guess they are back now ...
[23:02] <ashams> but I hated them
[23:03] <thelinuxer> bos one of the main problems with free software is that it's changing really fast
[23:03] <ashams> yessss
[23:03] <thelinuxer> you can hardly keep up
[23:03] <thelinuxer> so having a program is not that easy
[23:03] <thelinuxer> having a one-to-one mentorship really makes perfect sense
[23:04] <thelinuxer> may be not as efficient as we hope, but it's working so far
[23:04] <ashams> all what they hated is "ppl expect us to *teach* them everything*
[23:04] <ashams> they want a hands-on
[23:04] <ashams> they hated 1/1 too
[23:04] <thelinuxer> and if i am getting a mentor i would want him to teach me everything :D
[23:05] <ashams> of course
[23:05] <thelinuxer> btw i sent an email to the mailing list about ur membership
[23:05] <ashams> so, why to close the whole thing while there are many ppl ready to teach everything
[23:05] <ashams> SHIT!!!!
[23:05] <ashams> now omar will feel bad
[23:06] <thelinuxer> they aren't closing it, they will just be selective ..
[23:06] <thelinuxer> why would he feel bad ?
[23:06] <ashams> coz he reall wanted to be a member
[23:06] <thelinuxer> and i think he already knows
[23:06] <ashams> how?
[23:06] <thelinuxer> and what's preventing him ?
[23:06] <thelinuxer> omar mola7zeto gamda awi :D
[23:07] <thelinuxer> i think he is subscribed to the page
[23:07] <thelinuxer> and he will notice the cloaking stuff we keda
[23:07] <thelinuxer> no use hiding it
[23:07] <ashams> yeah
[23:07] <ashams> he's really sub'd to that page :D
[23:07] <thelinuxer> and u can actually guide him through the process
[23:07] <ashams> coooool
[23:07] <thelinuxer> i am subscribed to this page ..
[23:08] <ashams> me tooo :D
