Icon view in the Source List
Posted by kiddo in Linux Planet, PiTiVi, Planète Ubuntu Québec, Usability on February 8th, 2010
Stephen “lostcookie” Griffiths recently started coding on PiTiVi, learning the codebase as he works through the PiTiVi Love list. He has done awesome work on the source list to implement an “icon view” mode and has managed to somehow not become insane while I pointed out all his mistakes and bugs :)

The new PiTiVi website is up
Posted by kiddo in GNOME, Linux Planet, PiTiVi, Réalisations on December 11th, 2009
7 months later, the new, shiny PiTiVi website is now online. I have put redirects in place to handle the transition of the wiki to wiki.pitivi.org gracefully and redirect users to the website’s front page, if they were pointed to the old wiki front page URL.

A little while back, Andoni Morales (author of Longomatch) had managed to run PiTiVi on Windows “just for the sake of testing gstreamer python bindings”. His efforts have resumed and been posted to a new bug report as a serie of patches, and here is how it looks like:
Installing Ubuntu 9.10 LPIA the hard way
Posted by kiddo in Linux, Linux Planet, Planète Ubuntu Québec on November 7th, 2009
This is an attempt at making a “howto” based on my personal experience installing Ubuntu “Karmic Koala” 9.10 in its LPIA port (optimized for Atom processors). Remember, the normal Ubuntu desktop ISOs and the “Ubuntu netbook remix” ISOs are not tuned for the LPIA architecture, they are generic images. They will work with your Atom processor, but you will have less performance and less energy savings. Phoronix reported on this a while back, differences are in the range of 10% for each.
