Bug Description

I'm on the documentation team and can't help noticing the yelp documentation is mostly incorrect due to the new interface. This is particularly important for the section dealing with the Internet.

This is quite easily rectified by branching the current ubuntu-docs package for Netbook Remix and amending where necessary, particularly the gnome entities.

I am happy to do this myself and propose a merge, unless you have other plans.

I've branched the 8.10 docs and removed server guide and switching from windows. Main focus is to change the entities for UNR.

Hi Dougie,

At the moment, there are no plans for the docs, so it would be great to figure out what can be done to fix this Yelp issue.

All UNR images have the ability to switch to classic mode, but I don't think we can show the right documentation depending on the mode unless Yelp is patched. I do think it would be great to have the UNR interface documented, as the Classic mode, at least on UNR, is basically "power mode", so documenting it isn't as important as documenting the Netbook mode.

Thanks for the effort on this, and sorry for the late comment.

I agree the Netbook mode needs a seperate sub-set of docs which is what I'm working on first. I guess a slightly different startpage is also in order.

The desktop switcher applet, could that be used to set a system variable? If the yelp shortcut was, say "yelp %HELP_TYPE" and the switcher applet set %HELP_TYPE then users on UME would be catered for and users on non-UME.

Just throwing it out there - I've had a look through Yelp's source and think this is the simplest solution.

Hmm, I think we'd have to copy the yelp.desktop file into ~/.local/share/applications and then modify it there, but it should work...

Apologies for the delay but things have been busy.

I've now started the UNR docs branch and have completed the installation guide. Please note this will not compile as yet as I haven't built the transforms and so forth yet. Hope to get a good portion of this completed over the weekend then I can get some of the doc teams new members to join in.

Code's in lp:~dougierichardson/+junk/unr-doc

Once complete, this will be moved into the Karmic branch.

This has nothing to do with ubuntu-meta.
Please Leo, do not add random random package when you shouldn't. netbook-meta is the metapackage containing the list of default application on netbook edition, NOTHING related to parameters in UNE edition.
Thanks for your work there but ensure about what to do before doing random assignment (you can join #ubuntu-desktop if you are unsure)

Hello Micheal,

I'm kinda new to this whole Ubuntu documentation business, so I might
prove myself very un-useful for the time being. However, please feel
free to ask for help.

Now that Netbook Remix has been merged into Desktop Edition, this is more of a case of needing documentation on Unity in general, and I don't think branching docs would make any sense at this point.

If I'm wrong, feel free to reopen the bug report.
