The release party often draws some people who get together to chat, have beer, laugh, recount geeky tales, and celebrate the new release. Lets do that again. Typically we do that on release day, which for 14.04 is April 17th. Note that Friday after release is a Bank Holiday. Should we have one in London, and where should we have it? Now typically, more recently not a huge number of people turn up. It was suggested by Michelle in the office that we could invite people to have a drink at the office rather than everyone all trek to a random rubbish pub somewhere. The side benefit of this is for people who plan to go away over the Easter weekend can have a quick drink and disappear rather than make an evening of it. For those who want to make an evening of it, can find another nearby bar/restaurant after the office clears out to carry on the merriment. Sound like a plan? Cheers, Al.

[ubuntu-uk] It's not always updates that cause problems
Hi all, A cautionary tale: Turned on netbook [Acer Aspire 150] for the first time since a kernel update. Got to password screen and performed an immediate catastrophic power off - as in software risking instant type. First instinct was battery death. Wrong. Next instinct was the dreaded damn kernel update caused this. Pleased to report - those who assume an update causes a fail are often right - but often wrong. Real cause? Carrying a netbook in boot of vehicle travelling approx. 1000 miles/week causes vibration. 3rd instinct took over after trying a live cd from usb cd drive failed in same way - with battery removed, SD backup card removed netbook running off power pack. 3rd instinct?... Turn the darn thing upside down - give it a few [stragetically placed] gentle taps to reverse the vehicle vibration damage and hope its memory had worked loose. TV repair job, I admit - though I would prefer the phrase get-you-home- engineering. Netbook is running smooth as a smooth thing in a smooth world with a smooth population eating smooth food, smoothly. 12.04 survived all the power offs intact, as did Xubuntu 12.04 on other partition. When time permits I will get into guts of it and re-seat all re-seatables - as a good little engineer should ;) Remember - updates can be a coincidence as well as a cause. -- Cheers, Bill B.

Re: [ubuntu-uk] unity gimp
On Mon, 2011-05-30 at 20:50 +0100, George Tripp wrote: Just when I thought I'd got used to unity I can probably live with it I tried using the gimp. Previously with this I have the main window maximised set up toolbox layers as normal windows hidden behind the main one. In gnome2 it's easy to get at these other two windows from the bottom panel. However in unity this option obviously isn't there. Clicking on the gimp icon on the launcher does get the option to choose which of the 3 open windows you want so all is not lost but it does seem a lot of clicks and messing! Anyone else find this annoying? Any solutions? Perhaps I'll get used to this as well! George I found the same thing and then found the solution... I reinstalled 10.04 haven't stopped thanking myself since. Sorry to be negative, especially where a lot of people obviously did a lot a lot of work to get 11.04 ready [perhaps I'm just a stick in the mud but when it comes to usability - oh dear! Looking forward to next release to see where the usability bugs canbe / have been sorted.
