Riddellyou need to change it to take (self, mystring)02:09
viviersfyes i did02:09
Riddellprint user  if that's printing the class variable "user" it needs to be referenced as "self.user"02:10

viviersfadi helped me02:51
Riddellviviersf: what was up?02:51
viviersfsay i make a var in the method called : user02:52
viviersfi must declare it : self.user = 'test' and not user='test'02:52
viviersfelse when the contstructor ends02:52
viviersfpython goes and thinks it was local var to the method02:53
viviersfand forgets02:53
Lurekwwii: what do you mean with lighter? more bright/saturated? Yes, possibly...02:53
Riddelleyah, those self's are confusing02:53

jjessemorning, i tried to update my system this morning and i am getting an error unpacking replacement network-manager-kde02:57
jjesseanyone else having a problem?02:57
Hobbseejjesse: yeah02:57
Hobbseeinstall knetworkmanager, and it works fine02:58
HobbseeIIRC02:58
jjessedid the package name change?02:58
Hobbseethere was a knetworkmanager metapackage created, which depends on network-manager-kde, or maybe the other way around03:00
alleejjesse: yes03:00
alleejjesse: just run upgrade a second time and it fixes automaticly03:01
jjessei like knetworkmanager it works well03:01
alleejjesse: something in the dependencies needs to be fixed so knetworkmanager is configured before network-manager-kde03:02
Hobbseeich auch03:02
alleejjesse: I suspect a versioned dependency = srcversin will do03:02
kwwiiLure: yes, a bit lighter and a bit more saturation03:02
Lurekwwii: yes, it would be better, but even now is much better than original crystal...03:03

Riddell_Sime: hmm, guidance 0.6.5 doesn't fix the problem of not being able to click Apply07:31
_SimeRiddell: yes, I realise that (now).07:33
_SimeRiddell: the problem is that kcontrol, kcmshell and systemsettings don't listen to the buttons you set with the setButtons() method in the KCModule class.07:33
_SimeRiddell: having a look at systemsettings is on my TODO list.07:34
Riddellok, thanks07:34

OdyXhey jpatrick!08:00
jpatrickRiddell: by the way, claydoh on kubuntu-members approval list is a Kubuntu Forums moderator08:00
Riddelljpatrick: interesting I was wondering.  we need to sort out a policy for adding people to kubuntu-memebers, we can do that at the meeting next week08:02
jpatrickRiddell: technically all Ubuntu Forums ones == Members08:02
Riddellones?08:02
OdyXjpatrick: you mean "moderator" = "member" ????08:03
jpatrickmoderators08:03
OdyXjpatrick: there is a lot of moderators on ubuntu-fr for example... not all are member...08:03
jpatrickOdyX: ubuntuforums.org one08:03
OdyXjpatrick: and would they "merit" less ? because only french-speaking ???08:03
jpatrickOdyX: i dunno, there was a thread on it somewhere08:04
OdyXjpatrick: I think this is no good argument.. because a moderator has not the same habilities than a dev for ex...08:05
jpatrickyou go and tell them..08:06
OdyXjpatrick: find me the source first...08:06
OdyXjpatrick: a modo needs a lot of time on forums... almost no devs are modos...08:06
jpatrickOdyX: which is the job of the admins to pick out the highest posters08:07
OdyXwell... Before arguing... find me the URL where it is said "modo = member".08:07
jpatrickOdyX: looking08:09

jpatrickgo and ask one of the CC guys08:22
Tonio__hey08:23
OdyXjpatrick: no worry... I'm no modo nor member, so no voice on that... just find that the equation "modo => member" should not exist, it's a non-sense.08:23
OdyXhey Tonio__08:23
robotgeekthere are 3 super moderators on ubuntuforums.org , who are ubuntu members 08:23
robotgeekubuntugeek, cassetra and jdong (iirc)08:24
OdyXrobotgeek: "super-moderator"  means "mega-work for Ubuntu community", huh ?08:24
OdyXmoderator means "work for Ubuntu Community"08:24
robotgeekhowver, there are several other moderators from ubuntuforums.org who are ubuntu members08:24
robotgeekOdyX: i think they started ubuntuforums.org or something like that08:25
robotgeekanyways, i am not sure if further discussion on this is relevant here08:25
OdyXrobotgeek: what about moderators on other local teams ?08:25
Tonio_kwwii: ping ?08:26
OdyXrobotgeek: I'm sure it is NOT relevant.. :D08:26
robotgeekOdyX: not sure08:26
kwwiiTonio_: pong08:26
Tonio_kwwii: I just saw the new icons on the kde window theme :)08:26
Tonio_kwwii: may I give a comment ?08:26
kwwiiTonio_: yes, please do!08:26
Tonio_kwwii: they are very nice, but the effect when focus is on the button is not very visible08:27
OdyXrobotgeek: well.. Basically, I think if the equation "modo = member" IS valid, it should NOT be limited to UbuntuForums, but automatically extended to all local sites.08:27
Tonio_except for the closing button08:27
kwwiiTonio_: yeah, and the closing button should be a bit more brilliant, I thin08:27
Tonio_I can see that the color changes a bit, but that's not very visible08:27
kwwiik08:27
Tonio_kwwii: maybe :)08:27
Tonio_kwwii: what about the green ?08:27
Tonio_how is it supposed to appear ?08:27
kwwiiTonio_: I totally agree with you08:28
robotgeekOdyX: but moderator = member  is not valide08:28
kwwiiTonio_: well, it is only the sticky and such that is green08:28
Tonio_wouldn't the "green on focus" be better ?08:28
kwwiiTonio_: I could test making the mouseover effect green too08:28
kwwiiperhaps08:28
Tonio_kwwii: I think that could be more visible and nice :)08:28
OdyXrobotgeek: OK... That's what I wanted to hear :D08:28

Riddell1) I've not changed anything so I imagine it's much the same09:03
Riddell2) no idea09:04
mornfallRiddell: okey, is there scim/skim upload planned that fixes this?09:09

jdongjpatrick, OdyX: is there anything about the forums that I can answer?09:56
OdyXjdong: maybe... It's not soooo important...09:56
OdyXjdong: we were wondering if the equation "Ubuntu-* forum moderator => (K)Ubuntu member" was autmatic.09:57
jdongOdyX: not currently...09:58
OdyXthat's what I wanted to hear...09:58
jdongOdyX: the ubuntuforums government is somewhat independent...09:58
jdongwe do not have any clear-cut preference whether our staff are ubuntu members or sign the CoC at launchpad.. we believe that it's their individual decision09:59
OdyXOK... That's fine... because I would see no reason for modos from UbuntuForums to be members as it is not (AFAIK) for Ubuntu-fr forums for ex.09:59
OdyXjdong: thank you very much for answers...09:59
jdongbut of course, they are accountable for their actions at the forums, and we deal with that internally :)09:59
jdongyou're welcome, OdyX. feel free to ask me anytime if more issues come up; I'm on IRC quite often09:59
OdyXas do I jdong :D10:00
