[Ubuntu-ch] [Fwd: Re: Ubuntu 9.04 SwissRemix RC]]

[Daniel Stoni]

Hello Hassan

OK, thank you for the interest, feedback and offer.

I'm getting in touch with Linalis in order to include their graphics.
But I won't activate - SwissRemix uses standard Jaunty look & feel. It
was nasty work anyway to reset it after kubuntu & xubuntu stuff was
installed - FYI: /etc/gdm/gdm.conf-custom has two entries to be adjusted:
> GraphicalTheme=Human
> GraphicalThemes=Human

I'm quite happy with other default settings, the combination of language
chooser at gfxboot and timezone preseeding allows nice defaulting of
ubiquity values, saving many mouseclicks at installation time.
One piece of resistence remains: default keyboard is german. If I switch
to ch, default language on the surface turns to english. Need to further
study the logic of gfxboot in use and possibly initiate a change request...

Regards, Dani

Hello Daniel,


Your mail was only for me and Tormod is it right?. Did you forgot to
send to the ML? If it's the case you can forward this mail to the ML.

Thanks Tormod for the explanation.

Daniel, You have right, I think it should be really enough. We'll
provide to the users Ubuntu but remixed for Switzerland. So let's keep
keep everything like is it. And just add more info in our documentation.


What did you decide about (GDM/Gnome/Gfxboot/Timezone)?

P.S: Sorry Daniel, I don't get any time to test the DVD, since I'm back
from the UDS I have a lot to do at work. If some translation is needed
from German to French let me know. I will ask our secretary to do it for
us ;)


Best regards,
