We could if things are clean now. In not sure how to start requesting that. Is this where we need a sponsor or something? On November 16, 2014 12:18:31 PM EST, Jens-Christian [email protected] wrote:

Hmm. No idea actually. I asked this in #ubuntu-app-devel@FreeNode already: beaumanvienna> Hi guys! We've been developing a project for some time and now we want to get it upstream. My question is, how to apply for that, where to go, what kind of requirements we have to meet, all we need to know basically :-D This is the project: https://github.com/ProfessorKaos64/RetroRig Maybe ask in http://www.reddit.com/r/LinuxActionShow? Should I just post the same text? Or would you like to ask? |

I can throw something in /r/Linux maybe? I'll google around. On Sun, Nov 16, 2014 at 4:21 PM, Jens-Christian [email protected]

So it seems we could probably do this, bit I know what he means. The software center distributes binaries I believe On November 17, 2014 2:40:01 AM EST, Jens-Christian [email protected] wrote:

Looks like you were right with Debian Testing after all... I'm down to six errors and eight warnings: http://slexy.org/raw/s24zxl91os |

About what? Maybe I am a wizard? :P On November 17, 2014 1:23:39 PM EST, Jens-Christian [email protected] wrote:

Sure you are! :-D I meant about Debian Testing. Didn't you mention we should support it the other day? This would then be "Jessie". As desktop we can apparently choose between Gnome/Kde/XFCE/Mate, see https://wiki.debian.org/DebianDesktop/Requalification/Jessie. Any preferences? For Jessie we will most likely need to set up a new PPA. In Launchpad, you can only upload Ubuntu targets. I just hope, we don't get too much dependency trouble... |
|
Isn't Jessie (https://www.debian.org/releases/) using systemd? or not yet? as far as a DEm, gnome would be a good first target. I think Arch Linux may be a good first systemd distro over Debian, but a challenge is a challenge :) |
|
Okey dokey! Jessie, and Gnome as desktop, will be the next Debian derivative we'll target! Yeah, it's probably not that challenging as Arch, but it won't be trivial either. Gnome is still giving me a hard time. For instance our current Dolphin version is getting minimized after being launched from xbmc under Ubuntu-Gnome. If we can finally develop our OS-dependent code for systemd, that would be great! I'm always a big fan of baby steps. About Gnome, I think it won't let you install proprietary display driver. (Or I just didn't find it. Wouldn't be the first time.) We'll need to find a solution for that as well. Maybe you can feature on libregeek.org, how to install this? |
|
I can write up a simple entry on the wiki how to install the display driver. That would be crazy to automate that in setup, but not impossible. Most of these proprietary driver downloads have a. Sh or .run file. On November 18, 2014 1:53:29 AM EST, Jens-Christian [email protected] wrote:

I've reworked the Lintian messages today for
retrorig-setup. This is how it looks like so far: http://slexy.org/raw/s2Xqo0X80TI hate Lintian, too, hahaha :-D No, actually, it looks much better already. 12 errors left.
Professor, did you plan anything for releasing RR into the Ubuntu SW Center so far?
