WIIman | whats the best way to install wine on meego netbook 1.1 the suse rpm fails to install | 01:51 |
WIIman | powerbutton | 01:52 |
vicarious- | what power button? | 01:52 |
WIIman | thats the way you do it on a real install | 01:52 |
WIIman | press powerbuttun and it askes to shutdown or not | 01:52 |
WIIman | give like 30 seconds to answer | 01:53 |
WIIman | not sure in vm | 01:53 |
vicarious- | power button? like the actual power button the device? or some sort of software button? | 01:53 |
WIIman | on a real install on device powerbotton | 01:53 |
*** TheOpenSourcerer has joined #meego | 01:54 | |
WIIman | power button triggers the shutdown script | 01:54 |
vicarious- | do you mean the physical power button on the hardware? yes/no? | 01:54 |
CosmoHill | vicarious-: in a VM just sent it the shutdown command | 01:55 |
niala | vicarious-: a term and shutdown or shutdown the vm | 01:55 |
WIIman | please read my above answers | 01:55 |
CosmoHill | iirc it's under file on virtualbox | 01:55 |
WIIman | vbox may have a software powerbutton i dont know i run it on a actual install | 01:56 |
CosmoHill | close your VM | 01:56 |
CosmoHill | it will ask you what you want to do | 01:56 |
vicarious- | WIIman: yes, I've read them, now can you just respond with a yes or no to the clarifying question: do you mean in a normal meego install use the physical power button on the hardware to shutdown? | 01:56 |
CosmoHill | one of them is send the shutdown command | 01:56 |
WIIman | arg "yes" the REAL power botton | 01:57 |
niala | yes | 01:57 |
vicarious- | thank you | 01:57 |
WIIman | or in vm as above stated by another close vm | 01:59 |

korgoth | i need some help getting meego running on my laptop | 02:36 |
*** andyross has joined #meego | 02:37 | |
test34 | vicarious-, I think they do but I also think meego is more open | 02:37 |
korgoth | im trying to install it in virtualbox | 02:37 |
korgoth | it booted ok first time and i finished the setup but when it rebooted | 02:37 |
korgoth | it just hangs up on the background | 02:37 |
korgoth | and nothing happens | 02:37 |
tybollt | Termana: in that snap...is the video accel shitz integrated fully and wokring? | 02:38 |
Termana | vicarious-, on the same level as we compete with iOS - we aren't specifically trying to compete, we're just making a good OS for the same segments of devices | 02:38 |
tybollt | IIRC the video thingie has been problematic (at best) previously | 02:38 |
*** Saviq is now known as Saviq_afk | 02:38 | |
*** Jucato has quit IRC | 02:38 | |
Termana | tybollt, yes the SGX driver is there, but not the newer driver which provides some speed increase (only because it hasn't been integrated in the MeeGo trunk yet) | 02:39 |
vicarious- | how is meego more open? and how does meego differentiate itself from other similar OS's like Android or iOS? | 02:39 |
WIIman | i say hardware suport and ui | 02:40 |
Termana | tybollt, if you own an n900 and want to see the newer SGX drivers in action you can go to tablets-dev and download the demo image that people were using at the meego conference | 02:40 |
korgoth | anyone? | 02:40 |
vicarious- | WIIman: could you please elaborate? | 02:40 |
Termana | vicarious-, for a start, Android is dominated and controlled by a single company - Google, where as MeeGo is a community effort | 02:40 |
Termana | vicarious-, with Android, Google just throws code over the wall - in MeeGo you get to see development AS IT HAPPENS | 02:41 |
GAN900 | Is wake from sleep just completely broken? | 02:41 |
* GAN900 really hates this Netbook UX. | 02:41 | |
*** Armi^ has quit IRC | 02:41 | |
vicarious- | Termana: okay, that sounds nice and everything, but what does that mean to the consumer? | 02:41 |
WIIman | well google isnt a hard ware vender like intell amd nokia so the three i mention suport meego apple is but theire os only works for apple devices | 02:41 |
WIIman | then there is the user interace wich is uniqyie to others | 02:42 |
Mikho | GAN900, scroll up a bit and see niala's link | 02:42 |
Termana | vicarious-, MeeGo is different from other OSes like iOS and Android in that it provides a full GNU/Linux stack, good for users, good for developers, plus developers have the Qt framework which will make developing for multiple devices a hell of a lot easier | 02:43 |
tybollt | Termana: "demo" meaning what? a full snap of meego? | 02:43 |
test34 | Does a meego device usually have to be rooted? | 02:43 |
Termana | vicarious-, for consumers for one it means that theoretically a consumer could get updates to the OS as soon as something is fixed rather than wait for it | 02:43 |
WIIman | yeh qt dev is helpfull to | 02:43 |
Termana | But I guess that one comes down to whether manufactures and carriers allow it | 02:43 |
test34 | for example: do they try to prevent you from being root.. | 02:44 |
Termana | test34, that's not really a MeeGo-dependant thing. A MeeGo device could be either or. | 02:44 |
Termana | test34, there is nothing specific in MeeGo to encourage people to not be root | 02:44 |
*** jason__ has quit IRC | 02:44 | |
vicarious- | Termana, okay, so users could upgrade their device to the latest version of the OS without waiting for the manufacturer or carrier to allow the upgrade, correct? | 02:44 |
Termana | vicarious-, correct, as long as the manufacturer or carrier doesn't lock that functionality out | 02:45 |
test34 | ok Termana .. I just dont want to buy a device where they try to block things that you could easily do.. | 02:45 |
tybollt | ~tablets-dev | 02:45 |
tybollt | :( | 02:45 |
niala | vicarious-: and they can participate to devl | 02:45 |
tybollt | :') | 02:45 |
tybollt | :'( | 02:46 |
Termana | test34, N900? Or Nokia have said they will provide the Maemo 6/Harmattan device as unsubsidised and unlocked | 02:46 |
vicarious- | These are all interesting differences, but does meego have any competitive advantages in relation to other similar OS's (i.e. Android, iOS, etc.)? | 02:46 |
test34 | Termana, that might be the best choice, do you know which carrier let you use the n900 ? | 02:47 |
Termana | tybollt, demo meaning the newer SGX drivers got integrated into the image, for the demo purposes, since they aren't in the MeeGo trunk at the moment | 02:47 |
vicarious- | I really wish the meego web site was clearer on this... | 02:47 |
Termana | test34, you don't need carrier permission to use an N900 | 02:47 |
tybollt | Termana: where do I find tablet-devs? | 02:47 |
Termana | Hold on everybody, can only type so fast :p | 02:47 |
test34 | Termana, but it needs to support the right frequencies and such | 02:47 |
Termana | test34, correct | 02:47 |

tybollt | danke schön | 02:48 |
niala | vicarious-: what do you want more? coffe? :) | 02:48 |
Termana | vicarious-, can you be a little more specific in what you mean by competitive advantages? | 02:48 |

test34 | http://www.nokiausa.com/find-products/phones/nokia-n900/specifications#hardware-of | 02:49 |
Termana | vicarious-, your more likely to get games ported from iOS, because iOS uses C, using only Objective-C specific stuff for UI stuff. Whereas Android, to use C or C++ it's kind of a kludge and a hack so you really need to be using Java. Most of the C code will probably work with little effort on MeeGo | 02:50 |
test34 | vicarious-, competitive advantage is probably mostly marketing ? | 02:50 |
niala | vicarious-: in50 years Meego will have teleportation | 02:50 |
Termana | Just something to think about in regards to MeeGo v Android | 02:51 |
*** Tili has quit IRC | 02:51 | |

*** thiago_home has quit IRC | 02:52 | |
test34 | berndhs, but end of the world comes with time travel | 02:52 |
vicarious- | okay, fair points, but why would a consumer electronics manufcturer use Meego on their devices instead of Android? | 02:52 |
test34 | vicarious-, if they care about the user they should;) | 02:53 |
Mikho | As far as I know, one thing people complain about android is that it uses more battery | 02:53 |
Termana | vicarious-, increased openness for a start, breaking away from Google (in case you haven't noticed - a lot of manufactures want to do this) | 02:53 |

Termana | vicarious-, more contributors, more rooms for innovation | 02:54 |
Mikho | As far as my personal experiences go, java applications tend to be heavy on the system | 02:54 |
Termana | vicarious-, the Android trademark vs trademark usage of MeeGo. | 02:55 |
*** Openfree has quit IRC | 02:55 | |
test34 | Mikho, yes, java is heavy on my PC sometimes, so I can imagine on a phone | 02:55 |
test34 | vicarious-, isnt google getting sued about Java too? | 02:55 |
Termana | Under MeeGo you have to abide by an open set of trademark rules, for Android, Google has their own private set of rules for trademark usage, which they tell no one and if you do anything wrong by them, they won't let you use it | 02:55 |
Termana | Breaking away from Google is really a big reason in and of itself for manufactures to be moving away from Android and to MeeGo | 02:56 |
test34 | google and apple want to control you as much as they can | 02:56 |
*** Openfree has joined #meego | 02:56 | |

Termana | And honestly I don't see the problem with the name MeeGo | 03:00 |
Mikho | yes, I know it's just my personal opinion | 03:00 |
*** arfoll has quit IRC | 03:01 | |
vicarious- | Mikho: at least they use actual words...words mind you with a positive impression in the minds of consumers...people don't even know what meego is. | 03:01 |
Mikho | ah, I didn't mean to imply meego wouldn't succeed, just that I don't like the name very much | 03:01 |
Termana | vicarious-, Android doesn't tell you what it is by it's name either | 03:02 |
Termana | iOS? | 03:02 |
Termana | No | 03:02 |
Termana | iPhone - yes, I admit Apple was able to describe that one fairly good :p | 03:02 |
test34 | nOS ? | 03:02 |
vicarious- | Termana: People know the word Android and know pretty much what an android is... | 03:02 |
*** asj_ has quit IRC | 03:03 | |
vicarious- | Termana: Ask 100 people what a Meego is...you may understand then. | 03:03 |
Mikho | I might have a problem with unorthodox use of cApital letTers | 03:03 |
Termana | vicarious-, only because the products have been there for a while, when it first came out, general consumers had no clue | 03:03 |
test34 | meego is an immigrant going to the grocery store? | 03:03 |
vicarious- | Termana: no, you are not understanding me: android is an actual word in the engish language, meego is not. | 03:04 |
Mikho | I can't see the link between the meaning of word "android" and the OS | 03:04 |
berndhs | if you tell people what meego is often enough, they will know | 03:04 |
berndhs | and because it doesn't have another meaning, they won't misunderstand | 03:05 |
vicarious- | no, you guys don't understand how marketing works... | 03:05 |
Termana | vicarious-, iOS is not an english word. Plus what Mikho said - there is no relation to an automated human being robot and a mobile phone | 03:05 |
WIIman | when i hear Meego i think ugg me go to store ug | 03:05 |
WIIman | but its fun | 03:05 |
WIIman | its sugests mobility | 03:06 |
WIIman | me go | 03:06 |
Termana | WIIman, the name leaves a lot of room for people to make fun of it. But I think that's ok | 03:06 |
test34 | WIIman, sounds good | 03:06 |
berndhs | termana: so does the Wii | 03:06 |
vicarious- | that's right, there is no relation, there doesn't need to be, it just needs to be called a name that: 1) consumers are familiar with, and 2) a word that leaves a positive impression in the minds of consumers | 03:06 |
WIIman | at least its not calles smeegol | 03:07 |
WIIman | that is dont right theft | 03:07 |
Termana | WIIman, :p | 03:07 |
Mikho | WIIman, I know how you feel | 03:07 |
vicarious- | WIIman: exactly | 03:07 |
WIIman | theft og meego and theft of lotr | 03:07 |
WIIman | novel should knnow better | 03:08 |
test34 | meegone would be better? | 03:08 |
WIIman | ill make distro call it susee just to piss them off | 03:08 |

leinir | WIIman: i take it you are aware of the difference between the opensuse community project and novel the company which bases their suse enterprise products on the work of the community? | 03:11 |
leinir | because it sounds very much like you're not quite grasping that part of how opensuse works ;) | 03:11 |
vicarious- | Normally, when a company launches a product/service with a made up name (i.e. Wii, etc.) they usually launch a multi-million dollar marketing campaign to build buzz about the product's name... | 03:11 |
vicarious- | I don't see the organizations behind meego able to do that | 03:12 |
test34 | vicarious-, nokia, intel and amd? | 03:12 |
vicarious- | so best to just use a better name | 03:12 |
berndhs | vicarious-: oh sure, Intel and Nokia are rank amateurs at all this marketing stuff | 03:12 |

vicarious- | fair points | 03:13 |
test34 | vicarious-, intel pays everybody to use their products | 03:13 |
leinir | test34: yeah, because they're just tiny little things who have no idea about how to make a splash for something... i mean, noone here is likely to know neither the nokia tune or the intel chime ;) | 03:13 |
WIIman | yeh i know the defrence | 03:13 |
*** bdogg64 has joined #meego | 03:13 | |
test34 | leinir, exactly | 03:13 |
Termana | vicarious-, also, when you launch a PRODUCT, you need a..... | 03:14 |
Termana | PRODUCT | 03:14 |
vicarious- | are intel and nokia actually going to launch a multi-million dollar marketing campaign for meego? If so, I haven't heard about it | 03:14 |
niala | :) | 03:14 |
Termana | Of which there is no product's currently shipping as MeeGo devices | 03:14 |
WIIman | if intel realy wants meego to succeeed or nokia that it will thaty have the finantial power to do it | 03:14 |
vicarious- | Termana: a fair point | 03:14 |
test34 | vicarious-, AMD (competitor) even joined them I think | 03:14 |
berndhs | whoever launches a product will launch a marketing campaign | 03:14 |
Mikho | yes, based on the conference experience, it seems expensive alright | 03:15 |
berndhs | there not much point now | 03:15 |
leinir | test34: Yup, they joined in officially this Monday :) | 03:15 |
vicarious- | so meego is not ready yet for a product launch? | 03:15 |
*** loc1 has left #meego | 03:15 | |
WIIman | and now amd is on board too | 03:15 |
WIIman | meego will grow | 03:16 |
test34 | leinir, hopefully meego's adoption will take off now | 03:16 |
test34 | rate | 03:16 |
WIIman | the netbook adaaption is fantastic | 03:16 |
evdaemonia | hey, anyone care to help me out with some questions about meego? | 03:16 |
WIIman | i can try | 03:16 |
leinir | test34: *nods* i mean, we've long had two much more heavy competitors (ti and intel) working together on this, but the amd/intel thing is more sort of... press-friendly ;) | 03:16 |
niala | vicarious-: is an opportunity to see the whole process from start | 03:16 |
*** bdogg64 has quit IRC | 03:17 | |
Termana | evdaemonia, don't ask to ask, just ask :) | 03:17 |
vicarious- | niala: huh? whole sentences... ;) use your words... ;) | 03:17 |
evdaemonia | oh cool | 03:17 |
evdaemonia | well, i tried to install MeeGo | 03:18 |
vicarious- | evdaemonia: good...go on | 03:18 |
evdaemonia | i first tried it off the USB on the MSI Wind (U100) and it seems fine | 03:18 |
evdaemonia | it looks great and even plays sound | 03:18 |
vicarious- | evdaemonia: good...go on | 03:18 |
evdaemonia | mouse, keyboard, all work | 03:18 |
evdaemonia | except no wireless | 03:18 |
leinir | and now you'll say... yeah, wireless ;) | 03:18 |
WIIman | did you config wireless | 03:18 |
evdaemonia | it couldn't find any network nor was there an option for search for wireless, only bluetooth and wired :( | 03:19 |
leinir | So, much fun with that stuff - i'm pretty sure there's some info about that on the forums (specifically for the msi wind 100) | 03:19 |
test34 | leinir, yes, the 2 most well known.. they should probably make a commercial together;) I wonder if Arm is considering joining too | 03:19 |
vicarious- | its been mentioned here that meego has a "full linux stack". I'm told this is important, but I don't know why. First, what is meant by a "full linux stack"? | 03:19 |
Termana | test34, "I'm an Intel" "and I'm and AMD" | 03:19 |
Termana | test34, :p | 03:19 |
leinir | test34: They aren't officially involved, but with ti already on board... :) | 03:19 |
*** puffin has joined #meego | 03:19 | |
leinir | Termana: That'd be kind of lulz ;) | 03:20 |
Termana | an AMD* | 03:20 |
WIIman | try add new connection | 03:20 |
evdaemonia | i cant | 03:20 |
evdaemonia | it's greyed out | 03:20 |
evdaemonia | :( | 03:20 |
evdaemonia | anyway, that's only a minor problem... i was thinking of installing it | 03:21 |
Mikho | I wasn't able to get the wireless working easily with the opensource usb stick | 03:21 |
test34 | hehe Termana | 03:21 |
evdaemonia | but then got into trouble... | 03:21 |
WIIman | unsuported card maybe ? what wireless card ? i have atheros it works great | 03:21 |
evdaemonia | i wanted manual dual boot with xp and of course i dont know enough about it | 03:21 |
evdaemonia | so i stopped :( | 03:21 |
evdaemonia | there's so many options (ext2, ext3, some other format i never heard of) | 03:22 |
evdaemonia | anyone know an online guide for manual install? | 03:22 |
*** lukus has quit IRC | 03:22 | |
niala | evdaemonia: have you try in 'live' ? | 03:22 |
WIIman | yeh it can boot live | 03:23 |
test34 | vicarious-, I think it means that any linux app will work without problems | 03:23 |
evdaemonia | yes, i just spend 5 mins saying i have | 03:23 |
evdaemonia | it all works great, except the wireless :( | 03:23 |
evdaemonia | i need help with partition table :( | 03:23 |
test34 | vicarious-, so basically you dont need an app store, because most apps already exist | 03:24 |
vicarious- | i see | 03:24 |
evdaemonia | meego uses yum ? | 03:24 |
Mikho | rpm:s, yes | 03:25 |
*** andyross has quit IRC | 03:25 | |
leinir | meego uses zypper | 03:25 |
Mikho | what's the difference? | 03:25 |
evdaemonia | is it still '> zypper install xxxxx'? | 03:25 |
test34 | vicarious-, but you can still have an app store to make it easier for the users... | 03:26 |
*** berndhs has quit IRC | 03:26 | |
Termana | vicarious-, Android uses a hacked, sawed and cut down BSD libc with some other BSD-license libraries and a Google made, Apache-licensed command line utilities of which there are only 5 (ls and a couple of others) | 03:26 |
Termana | vicarious-, MeeGo uses glibc and normal linux libraries, normal GNU utilities | 03:26 |
*** berndhs has joined #meego | 03:26 | |
Termana | and it doesn't run all its apps in a VM | 03:27 |
Termana | that's been plastered on a heap of junk | 03:27 |
vicarious- | hmm | 03:27 |
test34 | a VM isnt necessarily bad.. but for a phone it might be (not enought processing power) | 03:28 |
Termana | You can use a NORMAL mainline linux kernel with MeeGo as well, not have to patch in Android's non-mainstreamed stuff | 03:28 |
test34 | enough.. | 03:28 |
*** pcacjr has joined #meego | 03:29 | |
niala | test34: if you want you can install a vm in meego or 3 or 4vm :) | 03:30 |
test34 | niala, thats a good point | 03:30 |
test34 | I need meego | 03:31 |
niala | you can install meego-netbook and run meego-handset or meego-ivi in your meego netbook | 03:32 |
niala | lol | 03:32 |
niala | like another 'linux' | 03:33 |
test34 | yes, its a fully working non restricted linux (unlike android) | 03:34 |
niala | install android in a vm in meego .... | 03:35 |
test34 | you probably can't do the opposite unless you root your android device | 03:36 |

Stskeeps | morn lbt | 11:43 |
lbt | good morning | 11:43 |
lbt | lost you on whatever evening that was | 11:43 |
Stskeeps | yeah - i was looking around for you | 11:44 |
Mek | lbt: hi, would it be possible for us kde people to get a project on the community obs that is not in someones private namespace? (and I guess there are a couple of kde people that would love to get access to the community obs in the first place :) ) | 11:44 |
*** asj_ has joined #meego | 11:45 | |
*** SomeOneBad has joined #meego | 11:45 | |
lbt | Mek: yes... there will be a https://build.pub.meego.com/project/show?project=Team | 11:45 |
lbt | however... there is a catch | 11:45 |
fabo_ | :) | 11:46 |
lbt | I want to do this with lots of red tape ;) | 11:46 |
Mek | red tape? | 11:46 |
lbt | well, ok.... more a bit of red ribbon .... | 11:46 |
lbt | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_tape | 11:46 |
lbt | so I asked someone around here.... (glances at fabo_) to help write up some process/policy stuff about who, what, when | 11:47 |
lbt | The thing is... we'll sign stuff in the Team area | 11:47 |
lbt | (maybe) | 11:48 |
rainyrhy | if that works, it should already be in Garage | 11:48 |
Mek | ah | 11:48 |
lbt | this is garage | 11:48 |
*** lcukn900 has quit IRC | 11:48 | |
lbt | we have Extras: (garage), Surrounds: (contrib), Team: (dunno) and home: | 11:48 |
Mek | so for now I should just add people to my own home: kde project until this team thing is worked out? | 11:49 |
lbt | Team will be our official area for maintenance of a significant unit | 11:49 |
lbt | I don't want to just give KDE maintainer role for MeeGo to the first bod that asks... | 11:50 |
lbt | yes | 11:50 |
Mek | well, we're having a kde on meego dev sprint at the moment :) | 11:50 |
Mek | but understandable | 11:50 |
Tormis | rhkfin: no idea why it's failing :/ | 11:50 |
lbt | so it may well be a simple "ask the CO" or some kind of community TSG | 11:50 |
lbt | and say "we claim the right because...." | 11:51 |
lbt | having a few upstream maintainers can't hurt :) | 11:51 |
fabo_ | Mek: in the meantime, you can add users to your home:*:kde for collaborative work | 11:51 |
Mek | vkrause, MoRpHeUz, notmart: I guess some of you might want community obs acounts so I can add you to my current kde project? :) | 11:51 |
Mek | fabo_: yes, that's what I said | 11:51 |
vkrause | sure :) | 11:51 |
lbt | also ... my desktop died last night so the backlog is gone | 11:52 |
lbt | but I have an "add users to obs" script so fire away | 11:52 |
MoRpHeUz | Mek: lbt gave me yesterday an account (morpheuz) | 11:52 |
Mek | ah, okay | 11:52 |
MoRpHeUz | lbt: I was about to ask you how to change my password :) didn't find how to do it... | 11:52 |
Stskeeps | lbt: is there any plans for additional workers? | 11:52 |
Stskeeps | as in, obs workers | 11:52 |
lbt | MoRpHeUz: change on meego.com wait for the next hour (ie every hour, on the hour) to sync pw | 11:53 |
*** Kaka has joined #meego | 11:53 | |
lbt | Stskeeps: yes... they kinda noticed that we may need some more | 11:53 |
Mek | vkrause: so give lbt and me your meego.com username :) | 11:53 |
lbt | don't tell anas but we'll get some core ones that are idle | 11:54 |
Stskeeps | lbt: and after you have more workers, we won't need the flagging like we do now? | 11:54 |
MoRpHeUz | lbt: ah ok, so it shares the infra with meego.com. nice :) | 11:54 |
lbt | MoRpHeUz: yes... I setup ldap for it | 11:55 |
lbt | Stskeeps: I want to get a handle on monitoring | 11:55 |
MoRpHeUz | lbt: you rock :) | 11:56 |
vkrause | Mek: lbt: my meego.com username is vkrause | 11:56 |
Stskeeps | lbt: as in policing or? | 11:56 |
Stskeeps | / process | 11:56 |
lbt | both | 11:56 |
Stskeeps | k | 11:56 |
lbt | and I'm a tad nervous about wide open access yet... given I know the internal infra inside-out... it's not really secure | 11:57 |
Stskeeps | aren't the chroots kvm based? | 11:57 |
Stskeeps | with no networking | 11:57 |
lbt | yes... but we have a *lot* of work to do to get it smooth. It's too easy to make admin mistakes just know | 11:58 |
lbt | today is "manage distributed config" day | 11:58 |
Stskeeps | :nod: | 11:58 |
lbt | so I can validate that all machines have sensible iptables and all kinds of other stuff | 11:58 |

lbt | sorry, eg as we do admin work | 12:15 |
lbt | just thinking about mail notifiers | 12:15 |
*** belkiss has quit IRC | 12:15 | |
Chani | hmm. if it happens less than once a month, then it's a useful notification | 12:15 |
lbt | and that one crossed my mind... I'll need to interrupt service a fair bit over the next weeks | 12:16 |

lbt | OK .. I can just announce on here | 12:16 |
Chani | ok :) | 12:16 |
lbt | we're very beta still - but should be data safe | 12:16 |

Chani | hmm, that reminds me, I never check /topic any more... | 12:16 |
lbt | Mek: interesting | 12:17 |
Chani | hmm. | 12:17 |
vkrause | Mek: I can't log in yet, might be related ;) | 12:17 |
lbt | vkrause: read backlog | 12:18 |
Mek | yeah, I guess some of the requests to lbt might have gotten lost, since I didn't see him react to every one of those people giving him their meego.com username | 12:19 |
vkrause | apparently | 12:20 |
* Chani can't remember the obs url.. obs.something.meego.com? | 12:20 | |

lbt | ah. | 12:21 |
lbt | I bet the users need to login | 12:21 |

Mek | yeah, now I can add him | 12:21 |
* Chani logs in | 12:21 | |
lbt | the mechanism is to authenticate against ldap and then writethrough to a local OBS user db | 12:21 |

lbt | we're getting abysmal performance .... we think the raid cards are hurting.... reconfiguring spindles is on the TODO | 13:19 |

lbt | Mek: thanks :) | 13:45 |
Saviq | Mek: I disabled all the other repos... | 13:45 |
Mek | they're still getting build it seems... | 13:45 |
Saviq | but first they got added enabled | 13:45 |
Saviq | so | 13:45 |
lbt | also... do people know about local build ? | 13:45 |
Saviq | we do | 13:45 |
lbt | ok good | 13:45 |
Saviq | Mek: I probably made the mistake of doing it the wrong way around - should've added the repos first and disable all of them project-wide | 13:46 |
Saviq | and add the package only then | 13:46 |
Mek | what does local build do? | 13:46 |
Saviq | Mek: roughly the same what workers do | 13:46 |
Saviq | but on your local machine | 13:46 |
lbt | *excactly* the same as the workers (bar kernel version) | 13:47 |
*** arfoll has joined #meego | 13:47 | |
Mek | so basically turning my local machine in a worker or something? | 13:47 |
lbt | the workers actually run the same build script that a local build runs and use the same wget | 13:47 |
lbt | yes | 13:47 |
Saviq | except that you don't publish the packages | 13:47 |
lbt | but on-demand "just build this" | 13:47 |
lbt | correct | 13:47 |
Mek | ah, well, I'm building stuff locally anyway before pushing them, so that won't help me | 13:48 |
Saviq | it's just there to test if they'll build fine on OBS | 13:48 |
Saviq | Mek: it will, 'cause it will verify that you don't have any missing deps and stuff | 13:48 |
lbt | ideally you setup a local chroot and bind-mount vcs and build in it | 13:48 |
Mek | yeah, that's what I'm doing | 13:48 |
Saviq | Mek: then as long as you do more than 'osc build <repo> <arch>' | 13:49 |
Saviq | to do your builds | 13:49 |
Saviq | osc will still speed up your work | 13:49 |
Mek | Saviq: what do you mean? | 13:50 |
Saviq | Mek: that's all that you need to do to trigger a local build | 13:50 |
Saviq | oneliner | 13:50 |
Mek | yeah okay | 13:50 |
Saviq | and it will bootstrap directly from the upstream repo | 13:50 |
Mek | although that complains that it can't find stuff | 13:50 |
Saviq | (caching a lot in the process, of course) | 13:51 |
Mek | and since the bottleneck right now is the actual publishing/building of packages on the OBS, that won't really speed up anything :) | 13:51 |
Saviq | well, yeah, it will only lessen the strain on them for testing out builds | 13:52 |
Saviq | btw, would it be possible to disable all the repos by default? | 13:52 |
* Saviq thinks it might help | 13:52 | |
Mek | why would you even add them all? | 13:52 |
Saviq | Mek: just for the future | 13:52 |
Saviq | to have 'em available in my home project | 13:53 |
Saviq | and enable at will on a per package basis | 13:53 |

* lbt waits until we get control of the dns and can add guiness.pub.meego.com | 14:09 | |

sivang | lbt: so, surrounds is the repo for deps and support the "Applications to run on MeeGo" from that wiki doc? | 14:10 |
timoph | lbt: is 'osc ci' supposed to work with pub? | 14:10 |
Mek | works fine for me | 14:11 |
timoph | gives me permanently moved error | 14:11 |
lbt | sivang: yes | 14:11 |
lbt | timoph: yes https ? | 14:11 |
timoph | hmmh. I think I used http | 14:11 |
* timoph checks | 14:11 | |
lbt | timoph: you are now *obliged* to put that in the faq | 14:12 |
sivang | lbt: may I add this small note onto that wiki page? | 14:12 |
lbt | http://wiki.meego.com/Build_Infrastructure/Community_Builder has a TOC | 14:12 |
lbt | knock yourself out ;) | 14:12 |
lbt | timoph: add a "common pitfalls" to the TOC on that page and create a new page | 14:14 |
arfoll | how come there isn't a meego 1.0 target? | 14:14 |
lbt | then ask Aard to help you populate it | 14:14 |
arfoll | on pub.meego.com | 14:14 |
lbt | arfoll: there isn't ? | 14:14 |
arfoll | lbt, maybe i'm blind - but it loks like meego 1.1 and current | 14:14 |
arfoll | s/loks/looks | 14:14 |
lbt | https://build.pub.meego.com/project/show?project=MeeGo%3A1.0 | 14:14 |
lbt | it may not be in the list of easy options | 14:15 |
arfoll | ah ok thats it | 14:15 |
arfoll | the interface is confusingly different to OBS 1.9 | 14:15 |
lbt | yeah | 14:15 |
* sivang listens to Luke Kelly to ease landing | 14:16 | |
lbt | we would like people to contrib changes | 14:16 |
lbt | I hate the https://build.pub.meego.com/project/list_public page | 14:16 |
lbt | it should have columns | 14:16 |
Aard | but wait with asking a few hours, I'm afk now | 14:16 |
arfoll | I hate more getting to subprojects is hidden in 'advanced' | 14:16 |
timoph | lbt: ack | 14:16 |
arfoll | how advanced are directories! | 14:16 |

timoph | are we using the same packaging guidelines in the pub osb than core obs? For me that would sound reasonable if we want to get stuff moved from pub to core at some point. | 14:34 |

Saviq | "Trying openSUSE Build Service server for glibc (MeeGo:1.1:Core), not found at crepo.meego.com" << that probably means 'using repo.meego.com instead of crepo.meego.com', right? | 14:40 |
lbt | + ".pub" | 14:41 |
lbt | but also probably a config bug | 14:41 |
lbt | we were... happy... whilst fixing the new urls | 14:42 |
Saviq | ah so we don't use core OBS as upstream, just snapshots? | 14:42 |
lbt | correct | 14:42 |
*** SWFu has joined #meego | 14:43 | |
*** SWFu has joined #meego | 14:43 | |
Saviq | lbt: what's the rationale behind that decision? | 14:44 |
lbt | they wouldn't let us :) | 14:45 |
lbt | now things are different | 14:46 |
lbt | but it isn't needed | 14:46 |
Saviq | also, is the lower/uppercase difference between _Netbook and _handset on purpose? | 14:46 |
lbt | we don't have build resource to allow users to track live rebuilds of core | 14:46 |
lbt | bug | 14:46 |
lbt | ask X-Fade :) | 14:46 |
lbt | we may need to completely redo the projects.. feedback needed | 14:47 |
sivang | lbt: added that note, it is important to explain "new" terminology that we introduce, or is surrounds borrowed from suse? | 14:47 |
lbt | it's a new term. | 14:47 |
lbt | I have some writeup to do | 14:47 |
Saviq | one last thing in this QA session, why isn't there a current_core target? | 14:47 |
lbt | possible bug | 14:48 |
lbt | it may be simply that it's not on the shortcuts | 14:49 |
lbt | which makes sense | 14:49 |
Saviq | about that feedback - I believe the core / extras distinction is a bit confusing, suggests that there's something different in core, not just that extras is an extension of it (or is it, in fact, not?) | 14:51 |
lbt | extras = app store | 14:51 |
lbt | see maemo extras | 14:51 |
Saviq | well, yes but it's core+extras, isn't it? | 14:51 |
lbt | mmm | 14:51 |
lbt | well in the same way that it's core+netbook ux+surrounds+extras | 14:52 |
*** brycycle has joined #meego | 14:53 | |
lbt | which is technically what we expect... but packages in extras are simple(!) user apps | 14:53 |
arfoll | lbt, so apps in extras are not allowed to have deps from extras? | 14:54 |
*** _BuBU has quit IRC | 14:54 | |
arfoll | like pacakges in the intel appup store, they have to be a single RPM? | 14:54 |
Saviq | arfoll: that's what the extras targets are for | 14:54 |
lbt | arfoll: correct | 14:54 |
*** rob_w has joined #meego | 14:54 | |
lbt | *but* | 14:54 |
lbt | that is what surrounds is for | 14:54 |
arfoll | in that case why can you use it as a target? That makes no sense | 14:54 |
*** araujo has joined #meego | 14:54 | |
*** araujo has joined #meego | 14:54 | |
Saviq | yeah ^ | 14:54 |
lbt | it's not really a target | 14:54 |
arfoll | at least it shouldn't be in the 'quick' choices for targets | 14:54 |
lbt | probably not | 14:55 |
Saviq | that's what I thought the _extras* were for | 14:55 |
lbt | sorry | 14:55 |
Saviq | in that case the '_core' suffix is even more confusing and should go away IMO | 14:56 |
Saviq | especially since we call 'Core' the set of things that're common between verticals | 14:57 |

timeless_mbp | i'm kinda sad that unconf didn't have video recording | 18:52 |
timeless_mbp | i did an intro to MXR in the l10n room | 18:53 |
timeless_mbp | using my n900's tv-out | 18:53 |
DawnFoster | ah, some of the uncof sessions were recorded, but not that room | 18:53 |

timeless_mbp | arfoll: mine is just at the top of the page for our talk | 18:54 |
timeless_mbp | and i saw someone else's the same way | 18:54 |
timeless_mbp | it isn't ideal | 18:54 |

arfoll | ok I see yours but for exampel the keynote ones aren't up | 18:54 |
* timeless_mbp chuckles | 18:54 | |
lbt | we could do with a revamp of the schedule page adding 's' and 'v' links to each entry for slides and video | 18:54 |
timeless_mbp | please | 18:55 |
Jaffa | DawnFoster: Was just going to say the MeeGo feed on my blog (on the News_and_Planet#Candidates list) now has entries; but don't worry about it if you're now on vacation. You deserve a rest... | 18:55 |
timeless_mbp | fwiw, i also would like to make my GoogleDocs slides available | 18:55 |

DawnFoster | Jaffa - nah, I'll add it. only takes a minute | 18:55 |
DawnFoster | lbt: sure | 18:55 |
DawnFoster | just make sure the text on the home page is relevant to a wide audience | 18:56 |

*** wdouglas has quit IRC | 19:02 | |
* timeless_mbp is still waiting for someone to provide a "how-to-dualboot-your-ideapad" | 19:02 | |
Stskeeps | smoku: you mean the netbook inteface | 19:02 |
Stskeeps | and yes, netbook isn't that good on tablets :P | 19:02 |
timeless_mbp | Stskeeps: you're using handset? :) | 19:03 |
Stskeeps | timeless_mbp: planning to | 19:03 |
DawnFoster | timeless_mbp: what about upstream developers? | 19:03 |
timeless_mbp | DawnFoster: oh | 19:03 |
timeless_mbp | hrm | 19:03 |
smoku | Stskeeps, the unity interface. the next ubuntu release will bring it on desktop too | 19:03 |
timeless_mbp | this is mostly designed from my mozilla->nokia experience | 19:03 |
smoku | Stskeeps, but yes. currently it is default in ubuntu netbook remix | 19:03 |
timeless_mbp | and the collaborator is another mozilla dev | 19:03 |
* timeless_mbp ponders | 19:03 | |
timeless_mbp | yeah, definitely need to figure out how to work that in | 19:04 |
DawnFoster | timeless_mbp: seems like it should be included, since MeeGo and lots of other open source project rely heavily on upstream | 19:04 |
timeless_mbp | yeah | 19:04 |
timeless_mbp | it just requires more thought :) | 19:04 |
smoku | timeless_mbp, I just downloaded ubuntu netbook remix iso, dd it on my usb pendrive and booted the netbook from usb | 19:04 |
*** niala has quit IRC | 19:04 | |
timeless_mbp | the primary goal of the slide set is to encourage a split bugzilla | 19:04 |
timeless_mbp | [dev-bugs] [user-bugs] | 19:04 |
timeless_mbp | w/ a bridge between | 19:04 |
Jaffa | Stskeeps: How scalable is the Handset UX resolution? Given the bugs around missing X Terminal and Settings icons, I'm guessing "not very" (and the fact someone had brought an IdeaPad running Handset UX and it seemed to be running at 800x480) | 19:05 |
timeless_mbp | smoku: ok, did you get wifi? | 19:05 |
smoku | Stskeeps, meego netbook is not that good on tablets. even if you do not have touch screen | 19:05 |
*** DerSaidin has quit IRC | 19:05 | |
Stskeeps | snowpong_: yeah, i know | 19:05 |
*** DerSaidin has joined #meego | 19:05 | |
Stskeeps | Jaffa: there's some bugfixes to be made in theme | 19:05 |
smoku | timeless_mbp, yes. even during installation. it downloaded updates and mp3 support during installation. | 19:05 |
timeless_mbp | smoku: shiny | 19:05 |
Stskeeps | smoku: yes, i agree | 19:05 |
timeless_mbp | smoku: can it make my system dual boot? :) | 19:05 |
timeless_mbp | if so, i'll start w/ it as my first linux | 19:06 |
timeless_mbp | i.e. shrink my windows system | 19:06 |
*** EF2 has joined #meego | 19:06 | |
smoku | Stskeeps, i meant that meego netbook interface is not good even on netbooks. no easy way to switch apps. no clock. no indicators that you have new mail or new im message. having to hit the upper screen border every minute is annoying | 19:08 |
timeless_mbp | smoku: Stskeeps and others talking work on handset | 19:08 |
timeless_mbp | you aren't going to hear them argue against you | 19:08 |
timeless_mbp | but complaining here isn't worth much | 19:08 |
timeless_mbp | better is to identify individual problems | 19:08 |
timeless_mbp | or use cases | 19:08 |
timeless_mbp | and get them into bugzilla or some use-case tracker | 19:09 |
timeless_mbp | and if you feel like making patches, that's a possibility | 19:09 |
Stskeeps | timeless_mbp: uhm, not complaining about handset :) netbook ux on a touchscreen clearly shows why we need special ux'es for touch | 19:09 |
smoku | timeless_mbp, I see no point in raising "basic design ideas are f*ed" bugs | 19:09 |
timeless_mbp | smoku: yeah, for that it has to be "document use cases" | 19:10 |
Jaffa | Stskeeps: The IdeaPad's an interesting device. But I think it shows me that a convertible netbook/tablet is a very hard h/w proposition. | 19:10 |
timeless_mbp | probably with a comparative analysis of other platforms | 19:10 |
Jaffa | Stskeeps: Compared with a dedicated ARM tablet | 19:10 |
timeless_mbp | Jaffa: it works great w/ windows :) | 19:10 |
smoku | Stskeeps, agreed. but even if I do not use the touchscreen, but the keyboard + touchpad, the tablet interface annoys the hell of me | 19:10 |
*** EF2 has quit IRC | 19:10 | |
Stskeeps | smoku: it's not a tablet interface - it's netbook | 19:11 |
Stskeeps | just to get the terms right | 19:11 |
ShadowJK | smoku, you mean "try do anything a normal person would want to do"-"use case" is broken? :) | 19:11 |
Stskeeps | what got installed from usb on the ideapads was netbook ux | 19:11 |
smoku | Stskeeps, yes. I get them mixed up constantly | 19:11 |
* Chani would build plasma-netbook packages if obs didn't seem so intimidating... | 19:11 | |
Chani | I on't really know where to *begin* | 19:11 |
Stskeeps | Chani: do you know how to write spec files? | 19:11 |
Chani | Stskeeps: nope | 19:11 |
Chani | Stskeeps: I know that a spec file is something obs uses. that is all I know about packaging. | 19:12 |
smoku | ShadowJK, exactly. I tried to write an email while talking on IM. I needed to constantly switch the applications, to see whether my friend had written something | 19:12 |
Stskeeps | Chani: http://wiki.meego.com/Packaging/Tutorial | 19:12 |
* Chani reads | 19:12 | |
Jaffa | Chani: lbt should be able to help with OBS; and spectacle is a tool for helping produce .spec files for "normalesque" source tarballs. | 19:12 |
Chani | 'course it doesn't help that my brain is half fried from reading email half the day ;) | 19:12 |
*** Moku has quit IRC | 19:13 | |
slaine | smoku: there is no published tablet ux as of yet, so now would be a good time to start playing around with ideas form both the handset ux and the netbook ux to see if we can come up with something that works | 19:13 |
* arfoll needs more upload bandwidth to OBS.... | 19:13 | |
ShadowJK | smoku, how about Bug: interface makes user facepalm Expected result: user does not facepalm or scream in despair | 19:13 |

*** TheOpenSourcerer has left #meego | 19:13 | |
smoku | ShadowJK, for me it looks like the person that designed and coded the netbook interface never actually used it :/ | 19:13 |

DocScrutinizer | haha | 19:14 |

*** Moku has joined #meego | 19:14 | |
*** EF2 has joined #meego | 19:14 | |
smoku | slaine, sure. there are a lot of cool ideas there. but alongside there are some hurdles that makes me WTF??! | 19:15 |
Stskeeps | RevdKathy: my slide from keynote is online if you find the session on conference2010.meego.com | 19:15 |
slaine | I've been using it in one form or another for over a year and half | 19:15 |
arfoll | ok, the alt-tab behaviour is stupid but it's not unusable | 19:15 |
timeless_mbp | slaine: i think there is a reasonable point here, bugzilla as is won't work well for people complaining about use-case-fail | 19:15 |
Chani | wow | 19:15 |
RevdKathy | Oh thanks Stskeeps! I can think of lots of places it might be usable - with a different interpretation of 'upstream first'! | 19:15 |
Chani | smoku: exactly. | 19:15 |
smoku | slaine, yesterday Texrat (quite a smart guy) came here to ask how do he switch apps in netbook UI. doesn't it show basic usability issues with it? | 19:16 |
RevdKathy | I only logged in to boast that I am on Xchat on my ideapad! | 19:16 |
timeless_mbp | slaine: does the netbook ux team actually have documents describing use cases they're trying to address? | 19:16 |
Chani | it's a strange mix of "ooh, that's neat" and "what were they smoking!?" | 19:16 |
RevdKathy | I think the UI is TOO simple - they went for simplicity to the point of leaving out stuff I need. | 19:16 |
timeless_mbp | smoku: um, to be fair, some things aren't intuitive anywhere | 19:17 |
timeless_mbp | ... but vendors e.g. apple rely on viral learning | 19:17 |
slaine | People like us wheren't the target audience. | 19:17 |
RevdKathy | People like me were! | 19:17 |
slaine | I'd disagree | 19:17 |
smoku | timeless_mbp, I have no problem in discovering how to switch apps in unity | 19:17 |
timeless_mbp | if you learn how to do something and it's memorable, you'll remember forever | 19:17 |
slaine | you've an n900, I can't figure out how to use mine | 19:17 |
timeless_mbp | slaine: hrm, did i run into you @dub? | 19:18 |
slaine | smoku: all I did was alt+tab and it switched to the app, you get a nice visual queue too | 19:18 |
RevdKathy | n900 is actually quite simple for the average user - couple of things needed hunting for but mostly quite intuitive | 19:18 |
w00t | two things I really dislike about netbook UX.. hiding toolbar that I can't make appear without a keyboard/mouse (touchscreen..) and the stupid 'zones' concept, or at least primarily the incredislow transitions between zones.. | 19:18 |
smoku | slaine, if you do not count the fact that alt-tab sometimes does not work | 19:18 |
Chani | I've seen people fail at using the n900 to :) | 19:18 |
w00t | (but zones altogether seem really weird) | 19:18 |
Chani | then again, I completely fail at trying to use an iphone or android | 19:18 |
slaine | timeless_mbp: no, we didn't | 19:18 |
w00t | and yes, the n900 'test' I always love giving people is to open a dialog and ask them to close it | 19:19 |
timeless_mbp | slaine: darn :( | 19:19 |
w00t | "where's the button?!" | 19:19 |
timeless_mbp | i knew i missed someone :( | 19:19 |
slaine | I missed loads of people | 19:19 |
timeless_mbp | i ran into RevdKathy and Chani | 19:19 |
Chani | my friends atually laughed at me the first time I got to play with a wii (I didn't get video games as a kid) | 19:19 |
slaine | I bet if I saw photo's of people and nicks I'd face palm and remember standing next to them or something | 19:19 |

smoku | Chani, that's why i think the designers of this interface do not use it - if they were, they would discover this basic usability issues | 19:21 |
RevdKathy | The MYzone needs to be massively more configurable | 19:21 |
timeless_mbp | but my hair was neater @dub | 19:21 |

RevdKathy | Yeah - dancing on the helpdesk after all that Guinness | 19:23 |
GAN900 | Smaller conference would've been nice. | 19:23 |

*** glunardi has joined #meego | 19:24 | |
sivang | I would love to have a developer's summit | 19:24 |
DocScrutinizer | timeless_mbp has a nice short paper about some WTFs in maemo, and there's a lot of howtos available on "doing UI the right way" - alas nobody ever seems to read them, or most people who do actually think "I know better about that" | 19:24 |
GAN900 | w00t, yeah, but then you don't get many international people. | 19:24 |
w00t | lbt suggested we have one earlier in the UK as I never got to chat with him.. I was like.. it's not even a week after the conference! | 19:24 |
* GAN900 hates the Netbook UX. | 19:24 | |

*** Moku has joined #meego | 19:24 | |

RevdKathy | We're looking at a UK meet-up in Feb next time I leave the Duchy | 19:24 |
w00t | I actually spent more time talking than drinking on tuesday | 19:24 |
RevdKathy | Wasn't the booze, Jaffa, it was the dancing. | 19:25 |
w00t | though admittedly part of that was my nearly passing out from low blood sugar due to not getting time to eat at all | 19:25 |
GAN900 | Jaffa, willpower. :P | 19:25 |
w00t | :P | 19:25 |
sivang | RevdKathy: dancing? | 19:25 |
sivang | RevdKathy: where? | 19:25 |
GAN900 | Wednesday was destroyed for a number of irritating reasons. | 19:25 |
leinir | My personal biggest gripe with the netbook ux is very simple... google the term "mystery meat navigation" ;) | 19:25 |
w00t | RevdKathy: UK meetup in feb sounds good | 19:25 |
slaine | timeless_mbp: I look a lot like my southpark avatar on the meego site | 19:25 |
GAN900 | Also: European orange juice is poison. | 19:25 |
lbt | RevdKathy: and I barely got to say hello this time :) | 19:25 |
Jaffa | GAN900: I'd used willpower to go and dance to Brown-Eyed Girl. | 19:25 |
w00t | GAN900: no, *bad* orange juice is poison | 19:25 |
RevdKathy | Some of us were dancing in the Guinness place. A lot were standing still pointing phone-cams. Planning a paper on "How Geeks Relax" | 19:25 |
sivang | DocScrutinizer: we have to think how to improve this... | 19:26 |
Jaffa | Hmm, I think timsamoff may have pictures of that. | 19:26 |
pupnik | Mystery meat navigation (also known as MMN) is a disparaging term coined in 1998 by author and web designer Vincent Flanders to describe a visually attractive but concurrently inefficient, confusing, or abstruse user interface, usually one that is Internet-based[1]. Such interfaces lack a user-centered design, emphasizing aesthetic appearance, white space, and the concealment of relevant information over basic practicality and functionality. | 19:26 |
DawnFoster | RevdKathy & w00t - I think Julien was looking at organizing something in the UK (meetup in London maybe) | 19:26 |
GAN900 | w00t, there's no difference between the two, as far as I can tell. :) | 19:26 |
RevdKathy | I saw you in passing a few times, lbt, and we actually together in the music at one point. | 19:26 |
ShadowJK | gan900: did you get one of those 100% raw without fruitmeat kind? | 19:26 |
DocScrutinizer | also in my experience UI designers never talk to users about what those really want, and what they think about the designer's new baby. They are just convinced what they designed is the best thing since sliced bread, and nobody must change any bit of it | 19:26 |
w00t | GAN900: hah | 19:26 |
lbt | RevdKathy: yeah... that was hilarious... how can you stand still with music like that | 19:26 |
timeless_mbp | slaine: oh well :( | 19:26 |
w00t | DawnFoster: sounds cool.. Julien who though? I've a terrible memory for names | 19:26 |
GAN900 | ShadowJK, dunno what it was. | 19:26 |
timeless_mbp | you're actually based around dub? | 19:26 |
GAN900 | But I'm a Floridian | 19:26 |
GAN900 | and I know orange juice | 19:27 |
RevdKathy | lbt: precisely. Very interesting - do people use a camera to avoid engaging with experience? | 19:27 |
leinir | http://www.webpagesthatsuck.com/mysterymeatnavigation.html <-- it's about web pages, but it's equally as valid on desktops | 19:27 |
GAN900 | whatever is served in Dublin and Barcelona isn't orange juice. | 19:27 |
pupnik | GAN900: why do some have this bitter taste? | 19:27 |
*** EF2 has quit IRC | 19:27 | |
Jaffa | w00t: RevdKathy: DawnFoster: Cool. Tony Percy is trying to as well: offered a venue | 19:27 |
sivang | RevdKathy: I searched for dancing people and could not really find any, so I stayed still :) | 19:27 |
DawnFoster | w00t: @jfourgeaud - french guy in a hat :) | 19:27 |
ShadowJK | GAN900, was it strongly bitter or was it like flavoured water | 19:27 |
timeless_mbp | GAN900: you can get Tropicana | 19:27 |
Jaffa | DawnFoster: Always in the middle of a game of Werewolf | 19:27 |
slaine | GAN900: It was probably that acid they call orange juice 'made from concentrate' | 19:28 |
RevdKathy | DawnFoster, w00t, we were talking Brum, as I fly out of Brum airport on the 16th. I live in the wilds and getting upcountry is a major event | 19:28 |
GAN900 | ShadowJK, bitter. | 19:28 |
lbt | rattle+hum .ie ? | 19:28 |
DawnFoster | can you guys coordinate them here? http://wiki.meego.com/Community_Office/Marketing/Local_MeeGo_Networks | 19:28 |
DawnFoster | just to avoid dublication | 19:28 |
Jaffa | RevdKathy: Ah, Devonwall way; right | 19:28 |
GAN900 | timeless_mbp, which is the worst orange juice available here besides Minute Made. | 19:28 |
slaine | DawnFoster: I see you managed to make it to Cornucopia, my wife's favorite eatery in the city center. | 19:28 |
RevdKathy | sivang, should have come down by the speakers. Lots of us dancing there. I can't stand still in that environment. | 19:28 |
* Chani notes that not all designers are bad... :) some do actual studies on actual people | 19:28 | |
DawnFoster | slaine: ha! it was delicious! | 19:28 |
ShadowJK | gan900: yeah it's the concentrated acid variety like slaine said then probably :) | 19:28 |
RevdKathy | Jaffa: theses days I'm considered 'up country' being 25 miles north of Land's End. | 19:29 |
w00t | Chani: even without studies, using it *yourself* frequently is a really good way to find pain points | 19:29 |
DawnFoster | slaine: all of the good hippie food is near a university :) | 19:29 |
Chani | hmm. looks like dinnertime | 19:29 |
w00t | bon appetit | 19:29 |
slaine | DawnFoster: lol, yeah | 19:29 |
GAN900 | ShadowJK, concentrate here doesn't taste like that. | 19:29 |
timeless_mbp | DawnFoster: there's some meego-ish meeting somewhere near HEL "soon" | 19:29 |
timeless_mbp | but i don't know where | 19:29 |
slaine | There's a few good spots around temple bar | 19:29 |
Chani | w00t: indeed, if you don't eat your own dogfood theres something seriously wrong | 19:29 |
* GAN900 has never vomitted up Florida oj. | 19:29 | |
timeless_mbp | and the coordinators are using a silly "registration required" service | 19:29 |
sivang | w00t: I will be trying to have focus groups as related to me and timeless_mbp 's talk, we'll see how far I can with this. | 19:29 |
Stskeeps | timeless_mbp: you mean the local networks | 19:30 |
ShadowJK | gan900: well it's like the raw juice with the sugars and water removed isn't it.. | 19:30 |
timeless_mbp | Stskeeps: re: http://wiki.meego.com/Community_Office/Marketing/Local_MeeGo_Networks | 19:30 |
Stskeeps | timeless_mbp: right | 19:30 |
* arfoll feels proud to be that spike in the public OBS | 19:30 | |
timeless_mbp | btw, what the heck is w/ the strange wiki page? | 19:30 |
Chani | however, some usability issues are invisible when you've been using the UI too long | 19:30 |
sivang | w00t: just trying to figure out the people to involve, conferences are great opportunity for that and a giveaway like netbooks could have been used to get people's attention and feedback | 19:30 |
timeless_mbp | oh | 19:30 |
timeless_mbp | it isn't a redirect | 19:30 |
* Chani found some glaring problems with newbies trying to use the activity manager UI in plasma | 19:30 | |
timeless_mbp | it's a page w/ one link | 19:30 |
* timeless_mbp sighs | 19:31 | |
timeless_mbp | ok, i can't figure out WTF that page is | 19:31 |
timeless_mbp | is it a double redirect? | 19:31 |
Jaffa | DawnFoster: Attempting to organise all the people mentioned towards that page as we speak. | 19:31 |
* timeless_mbp *hates* wikis | 19:31 | |
sivang | Jaffa: UK meetup? | 19:31 |
DocScrutinizer | w00t: (using it *yourself* frequently is a really good way) not for the majority of developers/designers/whatever | 19:32 |

sivang | arfoll: xbmc ? :) | 19:33 |
arfoll | sivang, aye :-) | 19:33 |
sivang | arfoll: I spotted it couple hours ago already :-D | 19:33 |
DocScrutinizer | w00t: usually the dudes who designed something are much too used to the concept behind it, and never use different alternative methods or even weird useage scenarios | 19:33 |
arfoll | sivang, it's been on the maemo community OBS for 2 months | 19:33 |
w00t | DocScrutinizer: then those people are weird | 19:33 |
slaine | DocScrutinizer: but that's kinda part of the problem too though. Like I said, people's past experiences make them biased about certain approaches. I KNOW that the netbook ux guys worked heavily on the Zones idea and DO use it a lot | 19:33 |
DocScrutinizer | w00t: that's the whole point about testing | 19:33 |
slaine | So for them, it's exactly what they wanted | 19:34 |
GAN900 | Installing Ubuntu tonight. | 19:34 |
sivang | slaine: we should have concepts reviewed thoroughly before actually going into investment in to them. Known practice in developing a service is consumer interview and market research. | 19:35 |
DocScrutinizer | slaine: *for them* - yes | 19:35 |
Jaffa | sivang: Aye | 19:35 |
* ShadowJK wonders if "read web forums" use case is pleasant on meego | 19:35 | |
RevdKathy | slaine - Zones is ok. I want to add the things I use to MyZone and can't work out how: they have put in the things they want, but a link to MY most used apps, for example | 19:35 |
sivang | this case should *not* be an exception, and I mentioned it a couple of times during the talk. | 19:35 |
sivang | (this == meego story) | 19:35 |
DocScrutinizer | sivang: ++ for research | 19:36 |
GAN900 | Wish two finger scrolling worked on the trackpad. | 19:36 |
DawnFoster | RevdKathy: you just have to select them as a favorite | 19:36 |
slaine | RevdKathy: In the application panel, there's a little drop pin appears above an icon, click the pin to pin it to the fav's bar | 19:36 |
slaine | Over on the fav's bar, click the pin to unpin the ones you don't want | 19:36 |
* ShadowJK recently heard a theory that market research as interviewing potential customers is counterproductive because they give stupid answers and dont really know what they want anyway | 19:37 | |
*** EF2 has quit IRC | 19:37 | |
GAN900 | and what about the trackpad buttons? | 19:37 |
smoku | GAN900, I didn't manage to get two finger working. but you can scroll just by touching a side of the touchpad and moving to the other. | 19:37 |
slaine | sivang: indeed, those UX concepts where designed in-house by Intel as part of the Moblin UX project | 19:37 |
GAN900 | ShadowJK, ++++ | 19:37 |
DocScrutinizer | sivang: alas usually such research is biased as well. like in there's a question "does the 7-finger scrolling work smooth enough for you?" but nobody asks user "do you *like* that 7-finger scrolling?" | 19:37 |
RevdKathy | DawnFoster: slaine: thanks! That's brilliant! But I would NEVER have found that for myself. Helps enormously. | 19:38 |
DocScrutinizer | ShadowJK: that's another lie spread by the designers | 19:38 |
slaine | DocScrutinizer: which often leads to design by committee, which never works | 19:38 |
DocScrutinizer | to protect their babies from any interference | 19:38 |
DawnFoster | ShadowJK: market research never produces anything useful when you are talking about something truly new and innovative | 19:38 |
arfoll | slaine, do you agree with the russian UX designer? | 19:39 |
sivang | DocScrutinizer: true, that's why a "like/dislike" survey should compliment the "functionality" research | 19:39 |
slaine | DawnFoster: Moblin used to have a pretty good user guide on the site that answered questions like RevdKathy's one there. Are those guides updated and available for meego ? | 19:39 |
DocScrutinizer | proper competition on usability test setup is something different than silly polls on the pavement | 19:40 |

RevdKathy | Ok, is there an interface that would enable ad hoc networking that I'm missing? Cos my only really serious problem now is that the beastie doesn't see joikuspot | 19:40 |

slaine | DawnFoster: cool | 19:41 |
arfoll | slaine, he was pretty useless, but design by commitee is an interesting thing. I dont care as long as nokia don't come out with something that looks anything like symbian^3 | 19:41 |
timoph | RevdKathy: np | 19:41 |

*** lolloo has quit IRC | 19:41 | |
slaine | arfoll: yeah, getting a consensus on a design is important, but that's different again. | 19:41 |
DocScrutinizer | e.g multitouch is a flawed concept if there's no alternative method to do same commands, as more often than designers like to believe, user needs to operate a device one-handed | 19:42 |
timoph | RevdKathy: anything else that is missing and should be packaged? I'm thinking of packaging libreoffice next (without the java parts) | 19:42 |
sivang | ShadowJK: going to effort to weed out the productive reponses than the "Stupid" once (although I made quite a lot of improvements to products I worked on by listening to "stupid" remarks) is only expected from anybody wishing to ship a product with large user bases | 19:42 |
sivang | if its for internal use, than no issue at all. | 19:43 |
ShadowJK | On desktop I use tabbed browsing, I love it. If anyone for N900/Maemo5 had asked my opinion on leaving it out, I'd told them to go fuck themselves on a rusty nail. However, in prfactice I love the Maemo5 way much more than fennec's tabbed browsing, and I dont know why | 19:43 |
RevdKathy | timoph I'd like a simple image manip so I can resize and tinker with photos before upload: the internal photo viewer is just a tad too basic. But I don't want the whole gimp | 19:43 |

ShadowJK | or an explanation/hint/help why sometimes it says just "open in new window" when I wanted to have "open link in new window", as if I had tapped a non-link despite the link highlighting :) | 19:45 |
DocScrutinizer | ShadowJK: nevertheless N900 is missing a hw menu key - thus breaking one of the 10 commandments of UI design: "if here's alternative HIDs, then allow user to operate the UI by exclusive use of any one of them" | 19:46 |
timoph | RevdKathy: I'll check what's available. shotwell or something.. | 19:46 |
GAN900 | 25MB RAW files bring it to its knees. | 19:46 |
sivang | Beliving your user "does not know what he wants" is a dangrous excuse to not investing in feedback loops. | 19:46 |
sivang | Even sun listens to her users. | 19:46 |
GAN900 | sivang, but it's true in many cases. | 19:46 |

lcuk | oh, hey a RevdKathy \o | 19:55 |
ShadowJK | timeless_mbp: but tabbed browsing for the most part achieves it :) | 19:55 |
RevdKathy | Hi lcuk! How're you? | 19:55 |
ShadowJK | revdkathy: yeah that too | 19:55 |
DocScrutinizer | GAN900: I *hate* designers who think they can do whatever they like, as they got the excuse they're doing it "in my best interest". Nobody knows about my best interest | 19:55 |
timeless_mbp | ShadowJK: we get reporters complaining they run out of memory w/ 80 tabs open | 19:55 |
timeless_mbp | ... | 19:55 |
GAN900 | DocScrutinizer, everything in balance. | 19:55 |
lcuk | I am tired, I just woke up after another very late night drinking with friends :) | 19:56 |
ShadowJK | on desktop I also use tabs as bookmarks | 19:56 |

RevdKathy | smoku: I just find the tabbing works comfortably, without fuss. I never have more than about 8 open - not 150. | 20:01 |
smoku | timeless_mbp, that's why I say "good browsers". yes, bad browsers workaround weak state trackin with "just use tabs" excuse | 20:01 |

timeless_mbp | there's very little a browser can do about it | 20:02 |

DocScrutinizer | GAN900: TBH I *hate* those "revolutionary new" designs as much and for same reasons I hate those designers that think "I'm acting in best interest of user" is an excuse for all that "revolutionary" crap | 20:05 |
RevdKathy | Tell me I don't need a separate log-in for meego bugs? It's deja vu all ovber again. | 20:06 |

timeless_mbp | sivang: for something revolutionary, it isn't quite about dislike | 20:06 |
timeless_mbp | it's about whether with some time it works for them | 20:06 |
RevdKathy | lbt: I go through the meego.com page and reach 'log in' - I was logged in on the last page! | 20:07 |
timeless_mbp | an initial negative reaction for something revolutionary is to be expected most of the time | 20:07 |

RevdKathy | I AM logged into meego.com. I followed logged in links all the way to that damned dinosaur and it ate my log in. | 20:08 |

DocScrutinizer | GAN900: that's a really huge and evil misconception about how user oriented develpment works | 20:11 |

DocScrutinizer | GAN900: such hierarchical models may work on commercial environments, like Nokia.

fcrochik | thiago_home: did you resize the one created by the original meego setup or started all over? | 20:22 |

timeless_mbp | in case people are wondering... | 22:03 |
timeless_mbp | on Windows 7, your ideapads can auto rotate the screen to match the orientation in which your pad is being held | 22:03 |
timeless_mbp | the lenovo people were clever though, it seems to be hidden in its own app instead of near control panel | 22:04 |
*** niala has joined #meego | 22:04 | |
thiago_home | that means there's a sensor for the screen rotated | 22:04 |
timeless_mbp | seems to be more like a gyroscope in the pad, i think | 22:04 |
timeless_mbp | i haven't spent enough time attacking it | 22:04 |
timeless_mbp | because it works as i move the pad around in 3space | 22:04 |
timeless_mbp | not just the swivel screen | 22:04 |
*** puffin has joined #meego | 22:05 | |
dm8tbr | accel/gyro is pretty standard issue nowadays. | 22:05 |
timeless_mbp | oh, and there's a good reason it's off by default | 22:05 |
timeless_mbp | it's too easily jostled | 22:05 |
timeless_mbp | and the behavior more or less sucks :) | 22:05 |
thiago_home | dm8tbr: I don't think it's that sensor | 22:06 |
thiago_home | I saw it rotate when you closed the screen in the reverse position | 22:06 |
w00t | I heard someone say it had an accelerometer at some point | 22:06 |
thiago_home | so it must be a simple contact sensor | 22:06 |
gabrbedd | any idea what sensor the lenovo is using? | 22:07 |
gabrbedd | I can't seem to find anything in lsusb or lspci | 22:07 |
* gabrbedd might be blind, though. | 22:08 | |
timeless_mbp | yeah, this is different | 22:08 |
timeless_mbp | there's a contact sensor which is probably always enabled | 22:08 |
timeless_mbp | which does the basic rotate for swivel/close stuff | 22:08 |
timeless_mbp | this is different | 22:08 |
Saviq | daaamn what a backlog... | 22:09 |
timeless_mbp | there's definitely some accelerometer stuff in the hard drive | 22:09 |
timeless_mbp | there's software to do magic stuff there | 22:09 |
timeless_mbp | iirc firefox has code to support exposing accelerometer using hdd agents :) | 22:09 |
Saviq | lbt: RPMLINT warns about no python-base dependency in packages, but there's no python-base available in the repos | 22:10 |

timeless_mbp | gabrbedd: it'd be mozilla-central | 22:11 |

odin_ | lcuk, well often text box entry cursor blinking is turned off for X11 application, as I believe it requires the application to keep sending a data stream in sympathy with it (which is not good on network bandwidth or battery usage), I think that is the history of the why, as for the solution ??? | 22:23 |
gabrbedd | timeless_mbp: my ideapad does not have that path. (S10-3t) | 22:24 |
timeless_mbp | gabrbedd: oh well :) | 22:24 |

gabrbedd | timeless_mbp: Nope. But you've given me an awesome clue on where to look for all this stuff... and that's worth a thousand entries in /sys | 22:27 |
lcuk | odin_, the color does not help its case in gedit - in other places its an alternative color and thicker | 22:27 |

* timeless_mbp nods | 22:30 | |
gabrbedd | DocScrutinizer: Yeah, but before I deleted Windows -- I think this thing /did/ have some accelerometer smarts. | 22:30 |

*** nomadalien has left #meego | 23:37 | |
Jaffa | GAN900: Get me some free beer and I'll mellow again | 23:38 |
GAN900 | Jaffa, go back to Ireland. | 23:38 |
lcuk | no need | 23:38 |
lcuk | irish bars exist all over | 23:38 |
GAN900 | Apparently Guinness is free there. | 23:38 |
arfoll | http://conference2010.meego.com/sites/all/files/sessions/fisher_meego_keynote_v4a.pdf | 23:38 |
* lcuk drank heartily in one last night | 23:38 | |
* thiago_home wants a MeeGo Confernece soon | 23:38 | |
lcuk | with great service and a folk band too! | 23:38 |
Jaffa | lcuk: Cool | 23:38 |
arfoll | timeless_mbp, it's quite a good presentation (as far as keynotes get anyways) | 23:38 |
GAN900 | thiago_home, yeah, I'm about recharged and ready. | 23:38 |
lcuk | O'Neills in Bury ;) | 23:39 |
marnanel | I just realised that now I can discover whether the Irish bars here are anything like the real thing | 23:39 |
lcuk | yes marnanel | 23:39 |
Jaffa | marnanel: Full of tourists everywhere ;-) | 23:39 |
* RevdKathy passes Jaffa a bottle of Doom Bar | 23:39 | |
lbt | irish mist | 23:41 |
*** MoRpHeUz has quit IRC | 23:41 | |
Jaffa | lbt: Ireland is, indeed, missed. | 23:41 |
lbt | :) | 23:41 |
timeless_mbp | arfoll: i think i skipped all the keynotes :o | 23:43 |
*** MostafaDaneshvar has quit IRC | 23:43 | |
arfoll | timeless_mbp, I managed to miss the last two although I was in the room just started chatting and stopped listening... | 23:43 |
GAN900 | timeless_mbp, just as well. | 23:44 |
GAN900 | timeless_mbp, Stskeeps was the only worthwhile thing. | 23:45 |
*** bbartek has quit IRC | 23:45 | |
arfoll | timeless_mbp, no! the free laptops where announced! | 23:45 |
*** Cygoku has joined #meego | 23:48 | |
GAN900 | Though the irony of the TSG was entertaining. | 23:48 |
Cygoku | How do I install Brasero for Meego under my Netbook ?? | 23:48 |
Cygoku | Or how can I use the startup disk creator under Meego ?? | 23:48 |
thiago_home | Cygoku: do you have a CD burner in your netbook? | 23:49 |
lcuk | frals, | 23:49 |
Cygoku | I do have an external ASUS DVD Burner. | 23:49 |
lcuk | if I put a sim card in the ideapad and install fmms, will magic be possible? | 23:49 |
frals | lcuk: no | 23:49 |
lcuk | frals, is fmms coming to meego handset soon? | 23:49 |
GAN900 | lcuk, got a modem? | 23:50 |
* Jay_BEE looks around | 23:50 | |
RevdKathy | frals: lcuk: that was a short and to-the-point answer! | 23:50 |
GAN900 | If you get a modem. . . . | 23:50 |
*** nnl has quit IRC | 23:50 | |
frals | lcuk: not afaik, as it depends on wappushd being there which is nokia closed last i looked | 23:50 |
GAN900 | Doesn't MeeGo handset have MMS? | 23:50 |
timeless_mbp | arfoll: well, i have one of those free netbooks on my lap now | 23:50 |
timeless_mbp | so i guess not much harm there | 23:50 |
timeless_mbp | GAN900: irony? | 23:50 |
RevdKathy | Right: time I went to bed. The bears are calling me. 'Night all. | 23:50 |
lcuk | whats the slot for under the battery on the ideapad? | 23:50 |
*** RevdKathy has quit IRC | 23:50 | |
timeless_mbp | lcuk: does the ideapad have a modem? | 23:51 |
lcuk | frals, shame | 23:51 |
lbt | lcuk: aha | 23:51 |
lcuk | we should see what can be done to get it running :) | 23:51 |
GAN900 | timeless_mbp, Zemlin asked a bunch of scripted questions, opened Q&A, then continued asking his own questions until time ran out. | 23:51 |
GAN900 | timeless_mbp, SIM slot | 23:51 |
Cygoku | No one here knows how can I create a startup disk under Meego Netbook Edition ?? | 23:51 |
GAN900 | It needs a PCIe modem, though. | 23:51 |
*** ofauchon has joined #meego | 23:52 | |
thiago_home | the Q&A needed more time for audience questions, agreed | 23:52 |
thiago_home | add that to the feedback page | 23:52 |
GAN900 | thiago_home, I figure if you have a panel, that should be self evident. | 23:53 |
thiago_home | yeah | 23:53 |
lcuk | GAN900, so its got place for sim | 23:53 |
lcuk | but cant make use of it? | 23:53 |
thiago_home | I don't mind a question or two to get it started | 23:53 |
ofauchon | Hi. "mad-admin create -f meego-handset-ia32-qemu-1.1.20101031.2201-sda-runtime is there some mirror configuration or something else ? thx | 23:53 |
GAN900 | lcuk, just need a modem. | 23:53 |
GAN900 | For the third time. :P | 23:54 |
*** MeeGoExperts has joined #meego | 23:54 | |
ofauchon | is slow sorry | 23:54 |
thiago_home | but there were too many from him | 23:54 |
GAN900 | thiago_home, indeed not. | 23:54 |
lcuk | that part doesnt make much sense, so at the moment the sim is just a sim reader basically? | 23:54 |
thiago_home | then again, the first person who asked question asked a two-part multiple-level one | 23:54 |
GAN900 | thiago_home, whole thing was him. *g* | 23:54 |
Cygoku | Is this place of any help usually ?? | 23:54 |
GAN900 | lcuk, drop in a PCIe modem. | 23:54 |
thiago_home | Cygoku: yes | 23:54 |
timeless_mbp | GAN900: clever | 23:54 |
Cygoku | I see. | 23:54 |
GAN900 | Somebody has an oFono compatible list somewhere. | 23:55 |
Cygoku | Well then ! | 23:55 |
lcuk | i like the big extended battery :) | 23:55 |
lcuk | meego lasts for ages | 23:55 |
GAN900 | lcuk, too big | 23:55 |
GAN900 | defeats the tablet mode | 23:55 |
lcuk | then get yourself a smaller one | 23:55 |
GAN900 | (though Netbook UX defeats it harder) | 23:55 |
GAN900 | Might | 23:55 |
thiago_home | it serves as a handle for tablet mode | 23:55 |
lcuk | yeah | 23:56 |
lcuk | thiago_home, book spine :) | 23:56 |
lcuk | when we have rotation working i can see myself reading from it happily | 23:56 |
thiago_home | it's too heavy | 23:56 |
lcuk | sure for carrying, but its ok as a prototype :) | 23:57 |
Cygoku | I wanna get rid of meego, but need to create a usb stick with meerkat, I am fudged under meego to do that. | 23:57 |
Cygoku | Please help. | 23:57 |
lcuk | Cygoku, you are in the meego channel | 23:57 |
tybollt | GAN900: so whatchs think of the current state of meego? | 23:57 |
GAN900 | thiago_home, oof, feels a little fragile for that to me. | 23:57 |
GAN900 | tybollt, well. . . . | 23:58 |
*** e-yes has quit IRC | 23:58 | |
thiago_home | Cygoku: our job is to get you to install MeeGo. if you have it already, then our job is done. | 23:58 |
* tybollt tried the demo last night - fairly depressing :) | 23:58 | |
tybollt | GAN900: :) | 23:58 |
GAN900 | (you're supposed to run off to talk to Amy there) | 23:58 |
Cygoku | Meego is not suitable for my needs right now. | 23:58 |
sivang | re | 23:58 |
lcuk | Cygoku, then go and read instructions elsewhere | 23:58 |
*** sawe has quit IRC | 23:58 | |
timeless_mbp | yeah, i'm not sure i dislike the battery-handle | 23:58 |
Cygoku | I cannot wait to tell msg board how ppl from the meego community treats ppl in help. | 23:59 |
GAN900 | tybollt, seriously, though, the Netbook UX is too much the rough-edged toy for me right now. | 23:59 |
lcuk | the restore OS button needs functionality | 23:59 |
thiago_home | GAN900: me talk to amy? why? | 23:59 |
lcuk | for now its ok but for later we will need to find a way to make it work :) | 23:59 |
sivang | thiago_home: I want a conf soon as well, this time to get some musical instruments and form a band BOF | 23:59 |
