I tried making UF today, but was unable to do so. The error message
I
got was:

----
Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement
egenix-mx-base==3.2.4 (from -r requirements.txt (line 2)) (from
versions: )
No distributions matching the version for egenix-mx-base==3.2.4
(from -r
requirements.txt (line 2))

I was also unable to install "Unable to locate package
python-egenix-mx", but I am not 100% sure that they are related.

I think it will help the project if we can build a good step-by-step
guide to build UF.

Thanks,


Hi all,

I've been ill for the past few days, so sorry for not replying
sooner.
I'll get on to the queries over the next day or so as I catch up with
work I've missed.

Cheers,
Mike

Mike:

Let me know what I can do to help.

Everyone on the QA list:

We are having a conversation about getting Ubuntu Friendly rolling
again. It was suggested after some brief initial conversations that we
move the discussion to this list.

Ubuntu Friendly:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuFriendly

https://friendly.ubuntu.com/

The site is done in Django and the LP site is here:

https://launchpad.net/ubuntu-friendly


Please let us know if you are interested in assisting with getting
Ubuntu Friendly rolling as a community driven project.

Yes please include me Charles. I have always been interested in setting up a hardware compatibility database for Ubuntu. The idea of UF is amazing, but the limitation I run into on a regular basis with UF is that only entire systems are shown. Why is this a limitation?

How often do you find the exact same system these days? Duplication (in this context a good thing, as it confirms compatibility) is low because models are not exactly the same. From one week to another, one batch to another, a manufacturer can change hardware components making it a new system.

Therefore I suggest that if we have a chance to improve UF, we make it component based (USB and PCI ID based). Please contact me if you are interested in discussing this improvement.
