dominikwould it be possible to make "smooth scrolling" in konqueror the default for kubuntu? i think many people are used to it because of Firefox: when you press yor middle mouse button (scroll wheel) you get an arrow to scroll.01:06
Riddelldominik: I find middle mouse button is much more useful for pasteing URLs01:07
Riddelldominik: smooth scroll can be done with shift up/down01:07
dominikhmm, ok. shift + up/down works good (better than smooth scrolling in konqueror ;-) ) but you could still paste with the middle mouse burtton, because in a text field it does not scroll.01:13
dominiki mean: better than smooth scrolling in konqueror with your mmb01:13
Riddellmiddle mouse button in firefox doesn't seem to do anything here01:17
dominiknothing? ok, than i was mistaken and it isn't the default in firefox either. sorry. what does middle mouse button do in konqueror when you leave it to default?01:21
Riddelldominik: it goes to the URL in the clipboard01:21
Riddellvery useful for just clicking anywhere on the page01:22
dominikyeah, ok. then leave it as it is now is best i think01:24
=== dominik [~dominik@adsl-84-226-32-33.adslplus.ch] has left #kubuntu-devel ["Konversation]
mdzRiddell: firefox used to do that by default, but it was disabled by default due to usability issues01:43
mdzusers trying to middle-click a link, and loading some random clipboard content as a URL instead01:43
elmomeh01:44
Riddellmdz: why would they middle click?01:44
mdzRiddell: to open in a new window/tab01:44
mdzI do it inadvertently all the time, and I *like* the feature01:44
mdzmaybe it should be double-middleclick or something01:44
Riddellhmm, I do that occationally but not much01:45
datomiddle click pastes url in firefox here. also, opens in new tab if you do it over a link.01:51

Riddell...03:29
Riddellinstall from release candidate?03:29
d3vic3nope 03:29
d3vic3dist-upgrade 03:29
Riddellright03:30
Riddellwhat's up?03:30
d3vic3if i change the style, the window decorations disappear 03:30
d3vic3(min, max, close buttons, window border, etc )03:31
d3vic3reboot doesn't fix it 03:31
Riddellchange which style?03:31
d3vic3Keramik(spelling) to Plastik 03:31
Riddellwindow style or widget style?03:31
d3vic3window style 03:32
Riddellmost pecualiar, it should be plastik by default for a start03:32
d3vic3all the applets failed to load, included the clock applet 03:32
d3vic3it is, switching it breaks it03:32
ttfRiddell: can I assign #7880 to you? even got a fix for that: set "inactiveForeground=140,140,140" in kdeglobals below [WM]  and remove the shadowing effect.03:34
d3vic3for some reason, my wi-fi card was disabled on login, enabled when I get back to Gnome 03:35
ttftested it out with keeping the shadowing effect - then the inactive window title text looks pretty blured03:35
Riddellttf: sure I can do it.  which shadowing effect03:35
Riddelld3vic3: shouldn't be anything in kde or gnome which affects the wifi card03:36
d3vic3Riddell, I know03:36
d3vic3strange 03:36
d3vic3oh, and the panel suddenly disappears if I click the button to hide it 03:37
=== Riddell wonders how d3vic3's problems could be recreated
d3vic3Riddell, easy, I just reboot 03:37
Riddellwell, recreated by me so I can try and work out what causes it03:38
d3vic3yah, all I did was dist-upgrade and rebooted into KDE03:39
d3vic3let me log on to KDE again and see 03:39
ttfRiddell: C.C. --> Appearance and Themes --> Window Decorations --> Use shadowed text03:40

d3vic3but then as soon as I go to theme manager and change the theme, it breaks again 04:52
d3vic3try changing you theme and see what happens 04:52
Riddelld3vic3: I can change from plastik to keramik window theme without any problem04:53
d3vic3kcontrol -> theme manager ?04:53
Riddelld3vic3: theme manager works fine as well04:57
d3vic3strange 05:00
Riddelljust tried theme manager on a fresh new user and it works too05:08
d3vic3I'm gonna try a new user and see 05:09

RiddellKamion: hno71 has made one up http://www.theopencd.org/ubuntu/img/KubuntuWinFOSS_1.png05:31

Riddellhno71: were you the guy complaining about Kpanel tooltips?  I got that changed upstream05:36
hno71Riddell: Yeah that was me. Cool05:36
hno71(I'm also the guy who sent you the website tarball)05:37
hno71Just so you can connect my nick with my name05:37
Riddellyes, someone redid the website so it can be translated, I need to set that up and make the tabs highlight correctly too05:37
hno71We're hoping to upgrade the ubuntu plone site tomorrow with that skin05:38
hno71Fingers crossed 05:38
Riddellgood luck :)05:38
hno71Riddell: Upload complete: http://www.theopencd.org/ubuntu/kubuntu/latest/05:44
hno71You should be able to untar and view it in firefox05:45
=== Riddell doesn't have firefox installed
hno71:) 05:46
hno71Any Gecko browser should work. Konqueror might even work too05:46
Riddellhno71: how come that's only 35MB and the ubuntu one is 99MB?05:47
hno71You can choose. That one is without OpenOffice, which I've also done for the Ubuntu AMD64 Live CD05:47
hno71Do you have space for the full 100MB?05:48
Riddellhno71: not sure but I would presume we do since at the moment the CD has the full Ubuntu one05:48
mdzhaggai: what do you need, main-wise?05:49
hno71Right, OK. For some reason I thought KDE took more space05:49
hno71Did you remove some lang packs?05:49
Riddelldon't know if we need more space or not, maybe Kamion will know05:51
haggaimdz: I was wondering about cdrdao and kdevelop.  As I said in the bug report, I guess cdrdao is a bit late in the game since k3b wants to set it suid05:51
mdzhaggai: yeah, setuid is a deal-breaker05:52
mdzhaggai: does it work non-setuid?05:52
Riddellelmo: could you set up a test domain pointing to /srv/kubuntu.org/www/new/ and follow the instructions in README in that directory?05:54
haggaimdz: hmm I don't have [k] ubuntu on my cd writer machine but debian's k3b actually wants to remove the suid bits on my setup now06:03
mdzhaggai: can we turn off the bits where it wants to go around changing permissions on the system?06:04
haggaimdz: hmm that would be a case of disabling k3bsetup06:05
mdzhaggai: k3bsetup doesn't do anything else?06:07
haggaimdz: it seems to set cdrom drive group and permissions, and set permissions on cdrecord/cdrdao binaries, all optional06:08
haggaitheoretically those should all work out of the box anyway06:08
mdzright06:09
mdzand if they don't, want bugs reported and fixed, not "run k3bsetup"06:09
mdzs/want/we &/06:09
haggaitrue06:09
haggaiI can't test it here since I only have a writer on my server and that only has ubuntu in a chroot06:09

Kamionthose are the current sizes; WinFOSS is included in both the i386 CDs, but in neither of the amd64 CDs06:16
hno71Right. So I'll just prepare separate tarballs for 386 and Amd64 on Kubuntu as well. 06:17
hno71It's quite quick once you've done one06:17
KamionI'll wait to switch over Kubuntu until you give me the word, then06:18
hno71OK, probably tomorrow. There is a bit more graphics stuff to do. Thanks.06:19
hno71mdz, haggai: I have an old Ubuntu box (warty+upgrade+kubuntu) that I've run k3b on before, but I ran it now with a fresh user and it works without running setup.06:20
hno71Does that help?06:20
haggaihno71: thanks, k3bsetup actually changes system permissions so it needs to be a fresh box, not just a fresh user06:22

motaboyRiddell: what do you think about the patch for QT that I proposed in my mail to kubuntu-devel ML?07:57
Riddellmotaboy: I'm going to look at it next (currently browsing bugzilla to remind myself of what's in there)07:58
Riddellmotaboy: you should poke some MOTU (such as haggai or amu or anyone on #ubuntu-motu) to review abakus07:58

Riddellmotaboy: not tried qt patch, have tried abakus and it's perfect except I think the README file needs to be included in docs07:59

motaboyRiddell: great. BTW. Try opening for example a ubuntu bug, then write something in the editor end select more than one line.08:52

motaboyapokryphos: If you are interested I wrote a mail to kubuntu-devel on this problem 08:55
apokryphosmotaboy: Ah, yes -- I saw it. 08:55
Riddellmotaboy: just minded, you should actually number abakus 0.76-0ubuntu0.1 so that the final thing can be ubuntu1 and people can upgrade to that08:55
apokryphosThough, Riddell, it doesn't happen all the time. It's sporadic.08:56
Riddellso here I am trying to get the problem and it doesn't want to be problematic for me08:56
