Hi, As a fan of the Google summer of Code projects, are there any objections to this being put in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/DocumentationHelp#Expert users ? It's still to have an entry :)
I think it would be an interesting one for "Experts" to have a look at, and may even provide a tool for seeing what processes can be done away with under lubuntu. Regards, Phill. P.S., a note to any one deciding to try it by ppa https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/Developers#ppa-purge It's worth having on your system for when 'bad' things happen to 'good' ppa's. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Jacob Peddicord <jpeddic...@ubuntu.com> Date: Wed, Aug 11, 2010 at 12:33 AM Subject: Call for testing: jobs-admin To: ubuntu...@lists.ubuntu.com, ubuntu-us...@lists.ubuntu.com, ubuntu-devel-disc...@lists.ubuntu.com Hello all, Google Summer of Code ends this week, which indirectly means that jobs-admin is now ready for testing! Interested testers need only to add a PPA and install a package to begin. Within a few days the packages will be available in maverick universe. sudo add-apt-repository ppa:jpeddicord/jobs sudo apt-get install jobs-admin jobs-admin may then be launched from the terminal, or can be found under System > Administration > System Jobs. We've hidden most jobs/services that are essential to your system, so ideally you shouldn't be able to break anything even if you wanted to. With that in mind, feel free to give it all a stress test. Shut off jobs you don't want, and change the settings of others. By testing this you'll also be testing jobservice, the daemon which powers it all. Bugs can be reported on Launchpad: http://bugs.launchpad.net/jobsadmin We're also open for translating: * https://translations.launchpad.net/jobsadmin - for most UI elements * https://translations.launchpad.net/jobservice - for job settings Any and all feedback is welcome. We'll have a bugfix release in the next few weeks. I won't be responding to reports or feedback until August 16 (Monday), however. For Maverick, you'll be able to install jobs-admin and have easy access to your system's services. The PPA will be maintained so Lucid users aren't left out. We're hoping to make this the de-facto utility (and framework) for managing services and jobs, and hopefully you'll see this in-place as the replacement for the missed services-admin in 11.04. I'll be working on getting these packages into Debian as well.
