[12:32] in regards to the file? no idea [12:32] i'll just have to check if it compiles on the uni computers, and reupload, and ask them to re-auto-mark [12:32] might have to bend their arms a bit :P [12:33] but i'll be really peeved if it doesnt compile on their system for marking, if it compiles on the uni computers === miguev [n=miguev@85.155.38.182] has joined #kubuntu-devel === miguev [n=miguev@85.155.38.182] has joined #kubuntu-devel [12:37] hi :) [12:38] hi [12:38] hey === freeflying-ibook [n=freeflyi@61.190.65.37] has joined #kubuntu-devel === raphink [n=raphink@ubuntu/member/raphink] has joined #kubuntu-devel === Hobbsee attempts to get knetworkmanager from svn [01:33] we'll see how far i get... === Hobbsee_ [n=Hobbsee@ubuntu/member/hobbsee] has joined #kubuntu-devel [01:55] Riddell are you there?

[03:04] I'm using it for language component and I already have the treeview loaded with the differente languages [03:05] I need to write some methods more (copy & paste) but I think I finally understood it [03:06] I've realized a little bit later that my component's name are colliding with the backend one's but that is easy to fix [03:07] now the language component is working and all the others are shown === faked [n=faked@85-124-41-229.dynamic.xdsl-line.inode.at] has joined #kubuntu-devel [03:08] I had some strange issue where it wouldn't work with unicode strings [03:09] anyway, i'm going to bed...night all...

[04:01] people are already making noise on ML and forums... [04:01] what's up with flight5 [04:01] mornfall: was not released for Kubuntu (just Ubuntu and Edubuntu) [04:01] well, worse things happen [04:02] not sure if the case was wait for espresso for Kubuntu or just overload of Riddell (which I can understand) [04:07] Lure: the candidates are up if you want to download and test [04:07] for some reason they didn't build last night so it's taking a while [04:08] and now rsync doesn't want to work [04:13] Riddell: is tjis just daily build? Because daily build (at least from 12.3.) hangs on my machine [04:13] I suspect that new kernel is the issue (also broke hibernate) [04:13] s/tjis/this/ [04:13] but I may try espresso on my desktop - just to get used to [04:14] 20060314.1/ live and install is what I'm aiming for [04:14] but I haven't tested them yet, so it could well have a broken linux build for all I know [04:14] Lure: don't use espresso on a machine you care about! [04:14] only use it if you don't mind your hard disk being wiped [04:16] Riddell: Ok, thanks for note - will maybe one older system from playing around... === raphink [n=raphink@ubuntu/member/raphink] has joined #kubuntu-devel [04:20] Riddell: is it that bad (this close to release)?

[04:46] somewhat fed up with flight 5 in multiple ways [04:46] but otherwise lovely [04:46] :( argh [04:46] ok [04:46] :) [04:46] well i've got a major issue with kwin-crystal [04:46] it looks very nice [04:47] but it uses 95% of my CPU [04:47] so KDE takes 5 minutes to load [04:47] and each window takes 1 minute to render when opened [04:47] that's quite strange [04:47] I've not had any problems with it [04:47] although I'm on a 1GHz G4 [04:47] well I've tested to be sre that was it [04:47] I changed the window deco [04:47] and it fixed it [04:47] I've tracked the process with top when loading windows [04:48] that it's kwin taking up to 95% of the CPU [04:48] is it only a problem when starting KDE? [04:48] or all the time [04:48] no [04:48] all the time [04:48] when opening a new window [04:48] a new box [04:48] hmm [04:48] whatever has a title bar [04:49] [16:43] I think it is doing too much blending of the root window [04:49] kwwii's comment on this ;) [04:49] well we can see if other people have problems if flight 5 ever gets released === claydoh [n=clay@65.99.187.241] has joined #kubuntu-devel [04:51] hehe [04:51] is crystal in df 5 ?

[06:49] sauna and more drugs, eyes are moving -> [06:51] kwwii: ping ? [06:51] kwwii: when you're available, I just noticed a little visibility issue with the new color sheme... [06:52] Tonio_: yop [06:52] raphink: hi ;) [06:52] raphink: did yo play with openoffice since yesterday ? [06:52] anyone noticed kwin w/ crystal using all CPU ? [06:52] the new color sheme causes a little problem in the menus [06:52] didn't play with that [06:52] cause in the menus the text color doesn't change from black to white [06:52] i'm playing with powerpc trackpad settings [06:53] then when you use your mouse in them, you get black text on darkblue bg [06:53] which makes it quite unreadable [06:53] I'd like to discuss the defualt settings for it since there's the option to activate the tap-click by default for it [06:54] raphink: is there a gui way or do we have to change in /etc/pbbuttonsd.conf [06:54] raphink: http://planetemu.net/temp/capture4.png [06:54] here is an example [06:54] robotgeek: man trackpad [06:55] raphink: awesome, better than /etc/pbb.. old habits die hard :) [06:55] robotgeek: use 'sudo trackpad tap' to activate tap-click for example [06:55] trackpad drag [06:55] and trackpad lock [06:55] respectively to allow dragging with the trackpad [06:56] and locking the drag until you tap again [06:56] so this is very useful [06:56] and this app is in powerpc-utils, so installed by default on ppc [06:56] it could be very nice to have a gui using it though [06:57] Tonio_: that bothers me too, but do you suggest to change text color to black when highlighted [06:57] raphink: beats changing it in a conf file :) [06:57] robotgeek: also found something great : nvsetvol [06:57] I would like more to just make blue a bith lighter [06:57] Lure: I don't think that is possible [06:57] cause openoffice doesn't really use QT directly [06:57] robotgeek: sudo "nvsetvol 0" and you don't have this annoying sound when booting the mac :) [06:57] my point of view would be a color which is not too clear and too dark [06:58] unless there is a way to patch openoffice [06:58] raphink: i don't have that installed, i think. plus i don't reboot my ibook :) [06:58] Tonio_: but which color does OOo choose then? [06:58] robotgeek: you have it installed for sure as it's part of powerpc-utils which is installed by default on ppc I think [06:58] iirc at least [06:58] Lure: OOo uses the standard qt color [06:58] Lure: but doesn't seem to manage the texte color changing in the menus [06:59] if the 6 wweek delay occurs it will affect kuubntu correct? [06:59] and I don't think patching this is easy ;) [06:59] what is man 8 ? [06:59] how does it differ from man 1 ? [06:59] Tonio_: another point to make those defaults (blue) more light ;-) [06:59] ah! time for second CC today [07:00] Lure: note that we have the problem in all gtk apps too [07:00] ;) [07:00] raphink: man 8 is admin command, 1 is regular commands [07:00] because of gtk_qt_engine [07:00] which means problem in firefox for example [07:00] which is widely used by kubuntu users [07:00] Lure: so /[s] bin/* have .8 and /usr/* have .1 ? [07:00] raphink: something like that [07:00] ok thanks :) [07:00] (but not always the case) [07:01] ;-) [07:01] 5 is config files, 2 is sytem calls and 3 is library calls (AFAIR) [07:01] ok let's move to #ubuntu-meeting === MrFaber [n=MrFaber@tor/session/x-011a019744a0d8e6] has joined #kubuntu-devel [07:01] ok === MrFaber [n=MrFaber@tor/session/x-011a019744a0d8e6] has left #kubuntu-devel ["Leaving"] === JRe [n=jre@pai34-2-82-226-199-36.fbx.proxad.net] has joined #kubuntu-devel [07:08] Riddell: how much would a delay benifit kubuntu, the same amount? === mbiebl [n=michael@129.13.169.168] has joined #kubuntu-devel [07:13] jjesse: more I'd say, since kde 3.5.2 release is just before and kde espresso needs work [07:14] then i would vote for it, if it makes things better === _nlindblad [n=nlindbla@user179.217-10-120.netatonce.net] has joined #kubuntu-devel === tvo [n=tobi@5354EA9B.cable.casema.nl] has joined #kubuntu-devel [08:21] any meetings I _must_ be this week?

[08:26] anythings gotta be better then kwifimanger :( [08:30] allee: ready to test ? ;) [08:38] Tonio_: what about knetworkmanager - on delay meetings it was noted that some forum people have working version [08:39] 0.6, which I think is needed for KDE frontend [08:39] Mark was also saying that they might consider if community provided workable version [08:41] Lure: hum, dunno [08:41] Lure: Riddell only can status on this... [08:42] Lure: I heard (but maybe I'm wrong) that knetworkmanager works only with cvs version on networkmanager [08:42] Riddell: can you confirm ? [08:42] I plan to install forum stuff and try GNOME applet - if it work, I may look for knetworkmanager [08:42] Lure: sure ! [08:42] Tonio_: I think CVS version was pre-0.6 at the time [08:42] but Riddell can probably confirm [08:42] Lure: this is a major, major, major issue for kubuntu [08:43] especially considering that laptop is a great priority for ubuntu [08:43] I can fix wpasupplicant for my needs (WPA), but I would like to have something better for others. ;-) [08:43] Lure: the best tool I've seen actually for kde is wlassistant, although it had 2 little, but really annoying bugs [08:43] But I have also powersave/kpowersave on my secret agenda... [08:44] Lure: that as already been discussed I think [08:44] the problem is that kpowerslave is duplicating the canonical stuff somehow [08:44] Tonio_: benefit of networkmanager is one base, two front-ends and this help (k)ubuntu [08:45] Lure: I must say I agreee that kpowersave is really, really better than klaptop [08:45] This is why poversave/kpowersave has issue (as base is different: acpi-support+powernowd vs. powersaved) [08:45] but I doubt that g-p-m people will switch to powersaved soon (as main developer do not want to) [08:45] yes but as ubuntu is developped with the best gnome apps, it is a bit sad removing kde killer appps because of that..... [08:45] This is why we need to make powersaved to "work-with" ubuntu infrastructure [08:46] Tonio_: yes, needs a CVS network manager [08:46] kpowersave is actually in the top 3 appications in kde-apps [08:46] Riddell: okay, that confirms :) [08:46] Riddell: what about wlassistant if the new version works quite correctly ? [08:46] Riddell: but what does "CVS version" mean - I though this was pre-0.6 (major rewrite) [08:46] and 0.6 is now released (with full WPA/WPA2 support) [08:47] Lure: is it ? didn't look at that........ interesting ! [08:47] Tonio_: it's been a while since I've used it, I'd need to look at it again [08:47] forum people took 0.6 and polished it for ubuntu [08:48] Riddell: I'm testing wlassistant for bugs and let you know ;) [08:48] major work was also on wpa_supplicant (which is used by 0,6) to respect /etc/network/interfaces [08:51] [19:32] sabdfl: re wpa: I have prepared with crimsun and kel modderman a new wpasupplicant package which integrates nicely in /etc/network/interfaces. I think it shouldn't be hard to integrate that to gnome-system-tools [08:54] Lure: even without wpa, a simply network tool is really needed :) [08:54] Riddell: isn't knetworkmanager okay with 0.6 new stable version ? === Tonio_ suddenly dreams of a wireless working tool in kubuntu dapper :) [08:55] Tonio_: agree and I think you should push wlassistant - do we need just UVF exception? [08:56] Tonio_: possibly, I don't know about network manager versioning [08:56] Riddell: okay [08:56] Lure: ready to investigate ? [08:56] but if it is, then great === claydoh [n=clay@65.99.187.241] has joined #kubuntu-devel [08:56] I'm installing ndiswrapper on my laptop, let's go ! [08:57] WLAN management on Linux sucks in general [08:57] nlindblad: not with networkmanager [08:57] Tonio_: really? [08:57] yes [08:57] networkmanager is GREAT [08:58] Tonio_: will look into this - first need to get through forum stuff to understand pros/cons and have working nm-applet on my system [08:58] Lure: okay, keep in touch ;) === mbiebl [n=michael@dslb-084-057-229-185.pools.arcor-ip.net] has joined #kubuntu-devel [08:59] Tonio_: screenshots? [09:00] GNOME project?? [09:02] Riddell: are you coming to the TB ? [09:02] nlindblad: yes, GNOME project but with light-weigh front-end which was rewritten for KDE - knetworkmanager [09:02] raphink: yep [09:02] ok :) [09:02] raphink: anything I should look out for? [09:02] I might need your support :) [09:02] Lure: currently on Breezy, might be why I can't find it [09:02] raphink: oh, you're going for main? [09:03] yes [09:03] groovy [09:03] oh, something I probably should mention [09:03] raphink: good luck! [09:03] thanks [09:03] when trying Dapper out a few weeks ago, all programs using glibc segfaulted all the time and eventually the whole system refused to function [09:04] raphink: we really need more KDE guys in core-dev and similar... [09:04] Lure: which is why I'm going [09:05] might be nothing... === claydoh [n=clay@65.99.187.241] has joined #kubuntu-devel [09:08] nlindblad: all? or just gnome programmes? === LeeJunFan [n=junfan@s64-186-37-84.skycon.net] has joined #kubuntu-devel [09:10] Riddell: all programs [09:10] Riddell: I need your support and recommend too [09:10] Riddell: fresh Breezy install => Dapper [09:11] nlindblad: sounds nasty, let me know if you have the same issues with flight 5 [09:11] Riddell: yeah [09:12] Lure: not available for Breezy? [09:13] nlindblad: I don't think so - but if you are hanging on kubuntu-devel, you should run Dapper anyhow ;-) [09:13] hmm [09:13] really want my laptop stable [09:14] but workstation would be alright [09:14] sed -ie 's/breezy/dapper/g' /etc/apt/sources.list [09:14] freeflying-ibook: yep, I'm here :) [09:14] nlindblad: I understand - I am also on Breezy for my work time, but will switch with Flight5 [09:15] Riddell: thx [09:16] upgrading now [09:16] Lure: yeah [09:20] I want something stopping me from wasting the enourmus amount of time I sit in front of my computer [09:20] Kubuntu development is a good candidate for that [09:23] heh [09:23] raphink: congrats! [09:24] Riddell: congrats! [09:24] raphink: congrats :) [09:24] ? === Tm_T hides [09:24] w00t!!!!!!!! [09:24] thanks :) [09:25] damn, raphink congrats! [09:25] :D === robotgeek tabcompleted wrong! [09:25] raphink: congrats === raphink goes find some champaign :) [09:25] raphink get laid? [09:25] :) :) :) [09:25] ;--P [09:26] raphink: congrats [09:26] ty [09:26] cong-rats.. [09:26] something I miss in apt is the ability to process several operations at once [09:26] nah [09:27] if you start a major dist-upgrade and need another package quickly you'd still have to either wait or interrupt [09:27] pretty clumsy [09:28] true [09:28] but safe [09:28] yeah [09:28] I guess I'd complain if it was the other way around [09:28] indeed [09:28] raphink: you heard mjg59, he'll be expecting top kubuntu laptop support now you're in main :) [09:29] hehe [09:29] :) [09:29] and now that i bought my first laptop this morning :) [09:29] is it just my crappy laptop or isn't suspend2 working what well? [09:29] that's a feature that would make my life alot easier [09:32] raphink: I also expect top laptop from you ;-) [09:32] don't expect my lap though :p [09:32] just the top [09:33] raphink: if you can push powersave in, that is more than enough ;-) [09:33] Lure: just got my first laptop today officially [09:33] kpowersave will be easy then ;-) [09:33] so I'm nto used to laptop stuff yet [09:33] I'll be doing my best ;) [09:33] I can only second that. If you need help or more information, ask lure or myself. [09:34] hi mbiebl [09:34] :) [09:34] Hi [09:35] mbiebl: I was thinking if it would not be easier for inclusion if we do not reroute acpid [09:35] but rather change apci-support upstream to respect powersaved properly (as it does for g-p-m) [09:35] Lure, filed a bug report for cpufrequtils, hopefully it gets rebuilt soon. [09:35] Lure, this solution is fine, too. [09:36] mbiebl: great - is this upstream (Debian) first or jsut Ubuntu? [09:36] The Debian package is already fixed, it's a Dapper issue [09:36] I plan to start some discussion with laptop team just to get some buy-in before we start major push [09:37] Good idea. Try to make a list, what they think is still missing and needs to be fixed or has to be done. [09:38] exactly - I just do not want that we get ther wih big suprise [09:38] I am shooting to at least get support for kpowersave into universe (UVF exception) [09:39] then we can discuss what is default for kubuntu-desktop [09:39] ;-) [09:39] But wouldn't it have to be main to become default for kubuntu-desktop? [09:39] Riddell, raphink: can kubuntu-desktop depend on something from universe? [09:39] Lure: no [09:39] I suspect not... [09:40] Lure: no [09:40] I am not sure how hard is to get universe -> main approval [09:40] I think I can follow the code of conduct [09:40] but I do not want to get too excited - let's do step by step and do it right [09:41] I will try to put up a wiki page with some info on that [09:42] What are the steps that need to be taken to get kpowersave into main? Who do we have to convince ;-) [09:44] mbiebl: I would suspect prerequisite is laptop-devel people - which means working nicely with GNOME first [09:44] then probably many others to get formal approval... [09:47] I signed it [09:47] what's next? [09:48] I'm coming from the Debian world, so I don't know the policies and procedures of (k)ubuntu. [09:48] mbiebl: you need to convince me [09:48] mbiebl: and I need mjg59 convinced since he does the power stuff in ubuntu [09:50] mbiebl: I don't know enough about power stuff to understand all the issues, and I haven't had time to investigate [09:50] Riddell, do you have an overview how powersaved+kpowersave work? [09:51] mbiebl: not really, nor how the ubuntu power stuff works [09:52] Should I write you an email or do you prefer to discuss it on IRC? [09:53] freeflying-ibook: keep doing fixes and testing and we'll try for MOTU again in a couple of months [09:53] Riddell: thx, i will [09:54] what's next after signing? [09:55] nlindblad: next after what? [09:55] Riddell: signing the code of conduct [09:56] mbiebl: there is already an e-mail thread on the topic I'm yet to read [09:56] mbiebl: if you camake your case here briefly then go ahead [09:56] mbiebl: what's your relationship to kpowersave first? [09:57] Good, I will write up a description of (k)powersave and make a comparison to klaptopdaemon and g-p-m and post it to the kubuntu-devel m-l. [09:58] I'm the Debian maintainer of the powersaved/kpowersave packages. [09:58] mbiebl: maybe better to wiki.ubuntu.com [09:58] (much easier to keep up-to-date than mail thread) [09:58] mbiebl: yeah, wiki page might be good [09:58] I'd love to focus on security issues [09:58] help out in that way [09:58] mbiebl: or I can do wiki based on your input [09:59] That's fine for me too. [10:00] Riddell: KubuntuLaptop or KubuntuPowersave? [10:00] Lure: second is less generic [10:00] Riddell: will do [10:01] Riddell, and about my relationship to kpowersave: I'm also contributing upstream where possible. The project is very active and open. [10:02] is there a specific Ubuntu security team? [10:02] Riddell: I would add that mbiebel actually pushed lot's of upstream changes [10:02] nlindblad: yes, he's called pitti [10:02] kpowersave was very SuSE before... [10:02] Riddell: do they need help? [10:02] I talked to the (k)powersave devs and they were very interested in getting (k)powersave into Dapper. They even offered there help. [10:03] I think we have support from upstream and debian maintainer [10:03] key is GNOME cooperation, and here I can anticipate some issues [10:03] nlindblad: I suspect not, security fixes are difficult and canonical needs to make sure they are done properly, but you can certainly ask [10:03] Yes, it was SuSE only previously. But now moved to sf.net and we worked hard to make (k)powersave distribution agnostic. [10:04] Riddell: well, the plain text password really indicates things are not perfect [10:04] due to the fact that g-p-m and powersave strategies are slightly different [10:04] nlindblad: how would you have stoped that happening? [10:05] but nothing that we could overcome (becase we really have to, otherwise we are stuck with bad laptop support in Kubuntu) [10:05] Riddell: I'm not a security guru, but I'm just saying, if somone would play with security and really take things to it's edge [10:05] Riddell: someone would likely have found that [10:06] Riddell: not accusing anyone of being bad at what they do [10:07] As said, I will write up a short description of (k)powersave and its design goals and give a comparison to g-p-m with it's pros and cons. Then Jonathan can make a better decision. [10:08] mbiebl: I feel pretty bad that I haven't been able to give this much time so far, thank for poking me :) [10:08] I guess you are pretty busy atm ;-) [10:15] good night === LeeJunFan [n=junfan@adsl-69-210-207-5.dsl.klmzmi.ameritech.net] has joined #kubuntu-devel === Tonio_ [n=tonio@tonio.planetemu.net] has joined #kubuntu-devel [10:46] okay, let's trying latest networkmanager :) [10:50] Lure: ping ? [10:50] Tonio_: pong [10:51] Lure: what are the changes done on the topic you talked about for kubuntu ? [10:51] I was simply trying to uupdate the actual source package [10:51] are there things you heard about ? [10:52] there is effort on forums to make packages for 0.6, some already reporting success, other still having problems [10:52] http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=139334 [10:53] then siretart is working on wpasupplicant update that has improved support for NM [10:53] [19:32] sabdfl: re wpa: I have prepared with crimsun and kel modderman a new wpasupplicant package which integrates nicely in /etc/network/interfaces. I think it shouldn't be hard to integrate that to gnome-system-tools === verwilst [n=verwilst@dD5E0099B.access.telenet.be] has joined #kubuntu-devel [10:54] (this was on meeting regarding dapper delay) [10:56] I have seen reluctance from keybuk (maintainer of NM 0.5.1 for ubuntu) and Mark saying that he might support community provided stuff inclusion if it works [10:56] Tonio_: what do you mean with "actual source code"? [10:56] Lure: are there patches to provide or something ? [10:57] patches are key issue for keybuk [10:57] 0.5.1 has many patches for ubuntu integration, these are harder to port due to major changes in 0.6 [10:57] :( [10:58] I would say with so much interest, the issue is only in working together (too many cooks issue) === freeflying-ibook [n=freeflyi@61.190.65.37] has joined #kubuntu-devel [11:00] Tonio_: I still like your wlassitant idea - but not sure if new packages are accepted in universe [11:00] Lure: well, because it is a major missing, there could maybe be an exception [11:00] we have time to test now [11:00] I suppose it is easier to get in than new NM still (NM has many dependacies, like VPN...) [11:00] Tonio_: exactly [11:01] Riddell: if wlassistant or knetworkmanager are working *perfectly*, do you think an exceptionnal execption to feature freeze could be possible ? [11:01] Tonio_: knetworkmanager will follow network manager. wlassistant could be possible [11:01] Tonio_: perfectly is hard with so bad foundation (differences between WiFi drivers) [11:02] Riddell: the problem is that knetworkmanager requires an update of networkmanager in main......... [11:02] this is is why NM is in my opinion harder to polish [11:02] Tonio_: exactly, and that's not going to happen [11:02] Riddell: would canonical do that for kubuntu ? I'm not sure...... [11:02] no [11:02] well, keybuk wouldn't do it for kubuntu anyway [11:02] Riddell: okay, so let's focus on wlassistant [11:03] Tonio_: will you work on packages - I am more than willing to test [11:03] and.... (sorry for that last question), if wlassistant is really "perfect", is main integration possible ? [11:04] BTW, I just droped knemo (again) - CPU load on batteries is just too high (5%) [11:04] I hope wlassistant is better [11:04] Lure: really? [11:04] Lure: ? [11:05] Yes, just searching for bug... [11:05] Lure: how do you get the cpu load ? [11:06] top [11:06] cause knemo isn't a binary but a kde service [11:06] I don't have knemo appareing in it [11:06] it is shown on kded [11:06] turn knemo off and you see difference. [11:06] that's what I thought, but do you think knemo is the responsible ? [11:06] Lure: testing [11:06] when my laptop is on 2.1GHz it is 2%, on 800Mhz is around 5% [11:07] bug 32981 [11:07] malone bug 32981 in knemo "kded eats CPU continuously due to KNemo" [Wishlist,Confirmed] http://launchpad.net/bugs/32981 [11:07] Lure: with my laptop (celeron D 1.5 ghz), it is arround 1.5% [11:07] interesting... [11:08] I need to ack for new laptop... ;-) [11:08] s/ack/ask/ [11:08] Lure: FWIW as soon as knemo 0.4 will be released, Percy will work on use a lib instead of if/iwconfig route [11:08] Tonio_: this is on full speed? [11:08] Lure: yes, I never decrese the cpu speed ;) [11:08] Lure: I tried to convience him to do it for 0.4. But he said he's too busy to do it right now [11:08] Lure: without knemo, I get 0.1% [11:08] you're right [11:09] there is a replacement we can suggest for knemo === allee see 2-3% with knemo running and CPU at 600 MHz [11:09] CPU usage also means battery time for notebooks and I do not lake to trade that for one icon ;-) [11:09] called knetdockapp [11:09] Lure: you should test, it is quite nice [11:10] but I do not object for knemo to be started by default in Dapper - I can turn it off by myself [11:10] I did a package for dapper [11:10] and mostly, knetdockapp is maintained, when knemo isn't [11:11] allee: already tested it ? === Lure installing knetdockapp [11:11] allee: I saw you in the changelog for wlassistant;) [11:11] allee: any news concerning the dhclient bug ? [11:13] Lure: the problem with knetdockapp is that it can't monitor several cards at the same time........ [11:13] Tonio_: I just noticed... ;-( [11:13] Lure: but cpu usage is about 0 :) [11:13] we are not up to date [11:13] and I am in contact with upstream [11:13] and Setting window does not come nice on my screen (some elements overlap) [11:13] I could ask for feature [11:14] CPU is 0% - really! [11:14] Lure: no app is perfect ;) [11:14] With graph ploting it goes to 3% [11:14] but todor is working hard on knetdockapp :) [11:14] Lure: ah ?......... [11:15] Lure: well it is correct I think [11:15] Tonio_: if you open Settings window and select active interface [11:15] but that is normal for ploting graph online [11:15] Lure: yes and to me it is okay [11:15] Lure: can you provide a screenshot ? [11:18] 0.67.3 - combined update. allow multiple instances, chart drawing and tooltip cleanups/updates [11:18] Lure: look at that [11:18] Lure: we should update and make uvfe request don't you think ? [11:19] looks good [11:19] Lure: there is still a problem [11:20] knemo can display your interfaces automatically [11:20] if you have an ath0, it will be shown [11:20] knetdockapp requires way more config........ [11:20] Tonio_: I made a wlassistant deb after the release but could not try because all AP were is use. So I don't know if it's fixed [11:20] allee: can you give me the deb ? [11:20] I'm gonna test right now [11:20] wait ... [11:21] allee: I saw upstream switched to scons.............. [11:21] Tonio_: screenshot: http://img71.imageshack.us/img71/1726/knetdock5bo.png [11:22] Lure: I can see yes [11:22] Lure: you have big fonts :) [11:22] I think the issue is DPI - fonts are just what you set me in k-d-s [11:22] ;-) [11:22] Lure: hu ? [11:23] you *should* have default ones ? [11:23] 9 pt [11:23] what is the size you set in kde settings ? [11:23] Lure: amazing.........; [11:23] Lure: breezy updated or native ? [11:24] Lure: you are the first personn I see that has different fonts to what it is supposed to be [11:24] clean install Flight4+dist-upgrade (from two days agou, as daily CD did not work) [11:24] I thought they are supposed to be 9pt [11:24] Tonio_: http://www.mpe.mpg.de/~ach/tmp/ [11:25] (I have same on desktop with 17"LCD with 96DPI) [11:25] allee: thanks :) [11:25] Lure: urgh ? [11:25] I have installed dapper about 30 times on 20 machines [11:26] never saw something like that....... [11:26] allee: did you saw that bug already ? [11:26] Tonio_: you did not see my initial Breezy ;-) [11:26] Lure: what gives: xrdb -query | grep dpi [11:26] Xft.dpi: 146 [11:27] which is average of two DPI [11:27] xdpyinfo says: [11:27] Lure: and you have a 146 dpi display? [11:27] resolution: 147x145 dots per inch [11:27] dimensions: 1920x1200 pixels (332x210 millimeters) [11:27] and this is all correct [11:27] allee: isn't that supposed to be set to 96 instead of 146 ? [11:27] Lure: then the fonts are correct. And that we see huge fonts is just because we have DPI << 146 :) [11:28] Lure: the problem is that xft.dpi is supposed to be set, and fixed [11:28] not DPI but xft.dpi [11:28] Tonio_: no for dpi > 140 dpi the real resolution is used [11:28] allee: ah ? didn't knew that :) [11:28] allee: true (I have debugged displayconfig) [11:28] allee: sounds logic :) [11:28] ;-) === allee join the happy club [11:29] Tonio_: but fonts do not look bad elsewhere (including Firefox/GTK) [11:29] Only here and there there is some dialog that could look better - like knetdock [11:30] allee: my wifi adapter is set to eth1 [11:30] wlassistant doesn't like that......... [11:30] Lure: okay kool :) [11:30] really? I think ipw2200 is always ethX [11:30] :'( [11:31] Lure: wlassistant tells me that it doesn't see any wireless adapter [11:31] Lure: fonts looks fine. I get the same with 10pt or was it 11 pt fonts [11:32] Lure: with hires screens there's a switch from 1 to 2 pixels used for line width. This makes the fonts look bold [11:33] allee: true - this is why I have turned some to 8pt on Breezy (I may do sameon Dapper) [11:33] Lure: looks like you're a perfect tester for hackish layouts are on sees in your screenshot :) [11:33] allee: you have not seen my login screen... [11:34] Lure: I was first 'shocked' to by the boldness. But with some time one gets used to it [11:35] Lure: ah, yeah, same here too. Icons where totally off from login window [11:35] http://img207.imageshack.us/my.php?image=kdm1920x12002gr.jpg [11:36] that will wake you up for sure ;-) [11:37] Tonio_: wlassistant 0.5.5-1 has no problems with eth1, at least it finds the WPA encrypted networks here [11:37] I have ips2200 in my laptop too. [11:38] allee: is wlassistant deb for dapper or should I build from source? [11:38] Tonio_: what does iwconfig detect your wireless extentions [11:38] allee: yup [11:38] Lure: is dapper deb [11:38] let me pastebin === Lure installing wlassistant... [11:39] allee: http://pastebin.com/602560 [11:39] looking at the soruces to understant [11:39] but yes, no pb with my wifi actually [11:40] Tonio_: works here (active WPA2 on ipw2200 on eth1) [11:40] Lure: if that works for you, something you can try is connect [11:40] then disconnect and reconnect [11:41] old bug was wasn't working on the second connection without performing a manual "dhclient" command === Lure will do (right back) [11:41] Lure: okay thanks :) [11:41] Tonio_: http://kubuntu.pastebin.com/602564 is what I get on startup. But I can't try to connect because AP uses WPA [11:42] allee: http://kubuntu.pastebin.com/602574 [11:42] seems that the iwconfig output isn't parsed correctly [11:43] strange issue......... [11:43] Tonio_: ah, you have a brodcom wlan. So you have to use use ndiswrapper?
