|
[00:00] <valorie> the local buzz is that Microsoft will announce their new CEO once the superbowl brouhaha has settled |
|
[00:00] <valorie> next week |
|
[00:00] <ahoneybun> I mean I and now in a hard place because I don't have a product key as it seems it is in the bios |
|
[00:00] <ahoneybun> and a iso seems hard to get for just Win 8 |
|
[00:00] <valorie> !efi |
|
[00:00] <ubottu> UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI |
|
[00:00] <valorie> that thing? |
|
[00:00] <ahoneybun> it has a BIOS emu |
|
[00:00] <ahoneybun> but yea it is efi |
|
[00:01] <valorie> evilness |
|
[00:01] <ahoneybun> had to use the nomodeset option in the boot to get it to run the installer |
|
[00:01] <ahoneybun> anyway brb |
|
[00:01] <valorie> the gpu seems to be flaking out on this computer, and I dread trying to find a new one without fighting that |
|
[00:01] <valorie> bleah |
|
[00:03] <ahoneybun> about 12 seconds to boot |
|
[00:03] <ahoneybun> to log screen |
|
[00:03] * mamarley 's computer (with UEFI and an SSD) boot about that fast. |
|
[00:04] * ahoneybun wonders if he used "nomodeset" in the kubuntu installer that it would work |
|
[00:04] <ahoneybun> like in the ubuntu installer |
|
[00:05] <mamarley> What kind of graphics card do you have? Does your UEFI support CSM (Compatibility Support Mode)? |
|
[00:05] <ahoneybun> it has a option to act like BIOS |
|
[00:05] <ahoneybun> I have 2 really one intel on the board and one nvidia |
|
[00:06] <mamarley> Some graphics drivers don't like booting if CSM is off. |
|
[00:06] <mamarley> The Nvidia blob does fine with it off on my Thinkpad T530. I do have Optimus disabled though. |
|
[00:06] <ahoneybun> mamarley, GeForce GT 750M |
|
[00:07] <ahoneybun> I did not install anything bumblebee or any non-free nvidia drivers |
|
[00:07] <ahoneybun> which I had to do last time I installed Ubuntu 13.10 on this machine |
|
[00:10] <ahoneybun> valorie, do you know the most amazing part of all this day so far? |
|
[00:11] <valorie> what's that, ahoneybun? |
|
[00:12] <ahoneybun> I plugged in a second monitor with hdmi and it just worked! |
|
[00:12] <valorie> NICE |
|
[00:12] <ahoneybun> that is epic |
|
[00:12] <ahoneybun> not going to work in every case but still nice when it works |
|
[00:13] <valorie> I still have to sleep and resume to get my display to work, which is extremely odd |
|
[00:13] <ahoneybun> I am going to continue to bug test the new alpha 2 in a vm though |
|
[00:13] <valorie> but I don't know if it's because of the flakey gpu or what |
|
[00:13] * jackyalcine thinks it's about time he tested alpha2 |
|
[00:13] <ahoneybun> it is prettystable for the most part have not really gone deep yet |
|
[00:14] <ahoneybun> reported one bug in the installer but that was just wording |
|
[00:14] <valorie> upgrade went fine to alpha one, but I haven't really used that laptop since upgrading it |
|
[00:14] <ahoneybun> muon discover seems to be a bit better |
|
[00:15] <jackyalcine> Now if opendesktop.org could look better |
|
[00:15] <jackyalcine> and work better |
|
[00:15] <jackyalcine> it could be the social hub for the F/OSS community |
|
[00:15] <jackyalcine> but I digress |
|
[00:17] <ahoneybun> hey lordievader |
|
[00:18] <ahoneybun> valorie, how long do we have for the translations to finish? |
|
[00:18] <valorie> jackyalcine: I prefer http://www.freedesktop.org/ |
|
[00:18] <valorie> opendesktop isn't open, isn't free software, actually |
|
[00:18] <ahoneybun> valorie, is it 1990? |
|
[00:18] <valorie> 1990? |
|
[00:19] <ahoneybun> that site |
|
[00:19] <valorie> not sure when they were created, but it is the same company who makes kde-look, kde-apps, gnome-look, etc. |
|
[00:20] <valorie> once Bodega gets going, we can start to leave that behind, I hope |
|
[00:20] <ahoneybun> do most apps install to the / or do some install to /home ? |
|
[00:21] <valorie> ahoneybun: I don't know what the schedule is; at some point we have to stop the translations and start creating the package, and moving the stuff to the website |
|
[00:21] <ahoneybun> that is the point how do we determine that date? |
|
[00:21] <valorie> I haven't a clue |
|
[00:21] <valorie> perhaps write to KDE-devel and ask? |
|
[00:21] <ahoneybun> perhaps |
|
[00:22] <jackyalcine> I didn't know that Bodega's the replacement |
|
[00:22] <valorie> not yet |
|
[00:23] <valorie> but it is being developed |
|
[00:23] <ahoneybun> kde-devel or kubuntu-dev? |
|
[00:23] <valorie> oops, kubuntu-devel |
|
[00:23] <valorie> kde-devel would be confused by that question, lol |
|
[00:23] <ahoneybun> lol yep |
|
[00:24] <jarkko_> is it possible that window manager grabs keyboard that it cant be used on full screen program? |
|
[00:26] * ahoneybun wonders now if the deadline follows the package upload/update freeze |
|
[00:28] <valorie> rather closely |
|
[00:28] <valorie> since we have to upload a package |
|
[00:28] <ahoneybun> as we would need to get the kubuntu-doc package in before then |
|
[00:28] <valorie> right |
|
[00:28] <valorie> as i was saying, we need to start documenting this stuff |
|
[00:29] <valorie> such as where to find deadlines, how to create and upload the package, arranging for translations, etc. |
|
[00:30] <ahoneybun> I have the deadline for 14.04 somewhere |
|
[00:30] <ahoneybun> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TrustyTahr/ReleaseSchedule |
|
[00:31] <valorie> like our ninjas have documented their workflow, we should do as well |
|
[00:32] <valorie> ovidiu-florin: http://test.kubuntu.co.uk/hello-world/ works well, but http://test.kubuntu.co.uk has a broken image |
|
[00:32] <ahoneybun> yea but where to start |
|
[00:33] <valorie> make a page on the wiki and I'll start |
|
[00:33] <valorie> you add in what you know, and sgclark can add, etc. |
|
[00:33] <ahoneybun> where is the one for the ninjas that I can model from> |
|
[00:33] <valorie> make a card in the trello so people know where to find it |
|
[00:34] <valorie> https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/Ninjas |
|
[00:34] <ahoneybun> something like DocsPeople? |
|
[00:34] <ahoneybun> as a name |
|
[00:35] <valorie> nice nitty-gritty page: https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/Ninjas/BuildEnvironment |
|
[00:35] <valorie> hmmm |
|
[00:35] <valorie> people sounds more like a team listing |
|
[00:36] <valorie> how about DocWork ? |
|
[00:37] <ahoneybun> that would work |
|
[00:39] <ahoneybun> wow the wiki seems to be a bit off lol |
|
[00:39] <ahoneybun> got a huge python error when I try to log in |
|
[00:40] <valorie> hmmm |
|
[00:40] <valorie> https://launchpad.net/kubuntu-docs hasn't been used for awhile |
|
[00:40] <ahoneybun> not since the 13.10 package |
|
[00:41] <ahoneybun> still set for raring |
|
[00:41] <valorie> ah, I was just looking at the wrong place; no recent blueprints |
|
[00:41] <valorie> since we don't use the blueprints any more |
|
[00:41] <valorie> trello is better |
|
[00:41] <valorie> there is a Trusty package already |
|
[00:42] <ahoneybun> I just saw that |
|
[00:42] <valorie> https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/trusty/+source/kubuntu-docs |
|
[00:42] <valorie> so that will need to be replaced |
|
[00:42] <valorie> updated, whatever |
|
[00:42] <ahoneybun> but it has the same date as the 13.10 one |
|
[00:43] <valorie> right, probably identical content |
|
[00:43] <ahoneybun> yeaa |
|
[00:43] <valorie> that's always the starting point |
|
[00:43] * ahoneybun is installing bzr for later work on launchpad |
|
[00:44] <ahoneybun> why don't we have launchpad setup for bug reports? |
|
[00:45] <valorie> somewhere I have a doc I made when working on the old docs |
|
[00:45] <valorie> I'll email that to you |
|
[00:45] <ahoneybun> ok cool |
|
[00:45] <valorie> you can use what bits are useful and ditch the rest |
|
[00:45] * ahoneybun wants to take control of the kubuntu-docs page on lp |
|
[00:46] <valorie> I assume we don't use the bug tracker now because we stopped developing on launchpad |
|
[00:46] <valorie> but if you take control of it, perhaps you can change that |
|
[00:46] <valorie> I would talk to the ubuntu-docs folks about that |
|
[00:46] <ahoneybun> I mean apachelogger put a bug on our docs though the ubuntu one because we dont have it |
|
[00:46] <valorie> since we are part of that larger team |
|
[00:47] <valorie> I'm sure they know how to flip the switch |
|
[00:47] <valorie> almost pizza time here..... |
|
[00:47] <ahoneybun> and that is filled with old bug reports and since we restared the docs we should have a clean plate |
|
[00:47] <valorie> right |
|
[00:48] <valorie> again, if you are in charge, you can probably mark the old bugs as outdated or something |
|
[00:48] <ahoneybun> I would move the current ones that we have though over |
|
[00:48] <ahoneybun> well the old bugs are on the ubuntu side of it |
|
[00:48] <ahoneybun> not the kubuntu-docs page it self |
|
[00:48] <ahoneybun> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kubuntu-docs <- old things |
|
[00:48] <ahoneybun> https://bugs.launchpad.net/kubuntu-docs <- our own page |
|
[00:50] <valorie> ok, off to pizza |
|
[00:50] <valorie> later.... |
|
[00:50] <ahoneybun> later |
|
[03:00] <ScottK> 4.10.5 is accepted and building for saucy. |
|
[03:14] <ScottK> Quintasan: Accepted. |
|
[07:29] <valorie> I'm looking over old email and see one from d_ed about Ktp that was never answered -- did someone take over the https://launchpad.net/~telepathy-kde/+archive/daily-builds PPA? |
|
[07:53] <jackyalcine> that's a good question, I haven't noticed any updates from it |
|
[08:15] <valorie> he requested someone to take over the PPA |
|
[08:15] <valorie> I'll forward back to the list if no one answers here |

[14:27] <akki2222> hi |
|
[14:28] <akki2222> i want to contribute in kde but when updating my xubuntu for kde development through debian repos it behaves abnormally |
|
[14:28] <akki2222> removed a lot of files including xubuntu desktop |
|
[14:29] <akki2222> which repos should i use for development? |
|
[14:33] <ghostcube> you should stay with the X(buntu) repos? not going to debian imo |
|
[14:33] <ghostcube> debian repos arent the same as ubuntu repos |
|
[14:36] <akki2222> i was reading the pdf n it said to update for kde build |
|
[15:10] <ghostcube> hmmm who did muon? can i ask something? in synpatic you can choose remove completely.. so with program settings files. in muon you cant any reason for this? |
|
[15:48] <ovidiu-florin> valorie: do you reffer to the footer? |

[21:45] <ovidiu-florin> valorie: how come? |
|
[21:46] <valorie> good question |
|
[21:46] <valorie> I didn't look at the html |
|
[21:46] <valorie> sec |
|
[21:52] <ovidiu-florin> valorie: I mean I don't understand what you see it's wrong? |
|
[21:52] <valorie> perhaps I can take a screenshot |
|
[21:53] <valorie> hmmm, today I see the headers |
|
[21:53] <valorie> header |
|
[21:53] <valorie> perhaps it was just being stubborn yesterday |
