Re: [Elementary-dev-community] Fwd: Testing new ISOs

2013-03-12 Thread Ivo Nunes
I've just pushed a commit to lp:elementaryos that should make the ISOs 
boot through UEFI. I tested it on my PC and it worked, although I'm not 
sure if it works with secure boot enabled (my motherboard doesn't have 
secure boot).


I should have some new ISOs uploaded by tomorrow, testing will be 
appreciated :)

Subject: [Elementary-dev-community] Testing new ISOs


From: David Gomes

To: elementary-dev-community 




Hello everyone,

As many of you probably already know, we are now building ISOs 
again. This is great news, of course, but we need some testers for a 
couple of things on the new builds.


NVIDIA fixes
UEFI boot
First of all, you can find the new ISOs here and UEFI is now 
(supposedly) working well.


I'm not exactly sure of what happened with NVIDIA but I think we're 
shipping some different (more recent) drivers that fix many problems.


If you have some time for flashing the latest iso and booting it, 
please reply to this post so that we can get some very needed 
feedback.


Best regards,

David "Munchor" Gomes

I want all the apps to be named what they do, so Dexter becomes Contacts, Noise

It's so much easier for the users, and is what they'd expect. iOS and Android, 
OSX and GNOME all follow this trend, and while we aren't ones for doing 
something just because everyone else does, it just makes so much more sense. 
They can be distinguished from other apps in the same way that GNOME does it 
(gnome-web, gnome-contacts) but these package names aren't actually visible to 
the user.

Hey guys,

Any objections or strong desire to keep it "Geary"?

Re: [Elementary-dev-community] Making Switchboard plugs translateable

I agree, we need to make all plugs translatable.

IMO creating a project for each plug we want to translate seems wrong, but it 
may be the only way to do it.

On Qua, Set 19, 2012 at 5:26 , Eduard Gotwig  wrote:
Hey, we need to make all switchboard plugs translateable.

Also we need to know how to use all translations for imported Gnome Control 
Center Plugs. Some use translations, some not.

Pantheon-Shell Plug needs to be translateable. For this I suggest to create a 
new project for it.

Is that ok?

[Elementary-dev-community] Congrego

2012-08-15 Thread Ivo Nunes
So, I'm on vacations and I only have my Nexus S and Asus eee pad here. I
haven't been able to be keep up with elementary lately because of this, as
I've only been reading the mailing list emails. I know we are close to the
beta1 milestone and I'd like to know: has anyone been having any trouble
with the ISOs that needs to be fixed? I'll only be back in September, so I
want to know if we need something important done in Congrego (I can try to
fix it on my tablet, just won't be able to test) or if the existing bugs
can wait until I have my computer.

By the way, if someone happens to have an Asus TF101 or SL101, I may have
something nice for you during the next month (a luna build for those sounds
nice, doesn't it? ;).

 all DE's. But, I think as we move forward we're going to have to do
 things
 that will start to break other DE's in order to really get our apps the
 best they can be.

 However, adding actions to a .desktop in this way is being proposed
 upstream to FD.o so this may be the way that GNOME handles it's AppMenus
 and Unity handles it's quicklists in the future. So I don't think we
 should
 worry too much about breaking other DE's.

 @Satchit, I also agree that having window controls in the quicklist menu
 seems silly. I don't know of anyone who uses them for this and I would
 advocate removing that from all of our apps.

 @Andrea, the quicklist *is* our external menu. I don't think it'd make
 sense to add yet-another-menuing-system.

Yeah, it involves hacking mesa.

I guess it's better not to use it then.

So, I've got LLVM pipe running on an ISO I built with Congrego.

It has got a few problems, but I think I may be able to fix those.
It's flickering a bit in VirtualBox and Compiz is crashing sometimes.

If we are indeed dropping 2D support, this can be very useful :)

Should I go ahead and work on it to make it stable, or do you think it
isn't worth the time I'd be spending?

Doesn't BURG break plymouth?
