| Burgwork | LaserJock, just create specs for ubuntu | 12:14 |
| Burgwork | they will be looked at and retargeted as needed | 12:14 |
| LaserJock | Burgwork: by the Ubuntu (slave) drivers? :-) | 12:15 |

| tseng | i think the maintainer of the packages just know | 12:29 |

| holycow | hey guys, anyone know if open office has logging capabilities? | 12:30 |
| WildTangent | Not sure if anyone is aware yet, but the latest updates seem to break the icon beside the applications menu for any icon theme other than Human, Tangerine and Tango | 12:31 |
| wasabi__ | Heh. Looks like debootstrap has some hard coded items. | 12:31 |
| WildTangent | instead of the normal Ubuntu logo, i see the standard gnome foot logo | 12:31 |
| holycow | WildTangent, true i just noticed that too | 12:31 |
| holycow | i preffer the foot logo my self but for ubuntu it should be the logo *nod* | 12:31 |

| WildTangent | coz_ here has the same problem as I do | 12:32 |
| coz_ | well the recent dapper updates, as of 15 minutes ago, have replaced the distributor-logo next to applications with the gnome foot. I don't hink so. How can this be changed systemically | 12:33 |
| LaserJock | wasabi__: probably Required+Important | 12:33 |
| coz_ | I found that even in my own icon set the logo has been replaced | 12:34 |
| WildTangent | coz_ there is no distributor-logo.png anymore besides the ones that come with the Ubuntu-made themes | 12:34 |
| coz_ | WildTangent, it iwas in hicolor and is now gone | 12:34 |
| coz_ | hmm need to solve this | 12:35 |
| WildTangent | indeed | 12:35 |
| WildTangent | this is quite upsetting | 12:35 |
| LaserJock | have you guys looked at the dapper-changes to see what the changelog says | 12:35 |

| coz_ | LaserJock, no I haven't looked and I don't hink anyone is upset just taken back by the inappropriate change | 12:36 |

| WildTangent | where is the changelog? | 12:38 |
| WildTangent | i cannot find it | 12:38 |
| LaserJock | somewhere in https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/dapper-changes/ | 12:38 |
| Burgwork | WildTangent, file a bug against the tangerine icon theme | 12:38 |
| WildTangent | Burgwork: how are you sure that Tangerine is the problem? I've already stated that the icons in Human, Tangerine, and Tango all work, its the icons in 3rd party themes included with Gnome, and downloaded from places like gnome-looks.org that dont display the correct logo | 12:40 |
| WildTangent | they worked before the update, but now they dont | 12:40 |
| LaserJock | WildTangent: look at what packages were updated | 12:41 |
| WildTangent | I am trying, but your changelog is hard to navigate | 12:42 |
| LaserJock | WildTangent: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/dapper-changes/2006-May/date.html | 12:43 |
| Burgwork | WildTangent, then the issue is not an Ubuntu one | 12:43 |
| LaserJock | and if you used aptitude or synaptic look at the history | 12:43 |
| WildTangent | Burgwork: it is obviously an Ubuntu issue...this problem did not surface until immediately after the updates | 12:44 |
| WildTangent | others have confirmed this | 12:44 |
| WildTangent | they have the exact same problem as I do | 12:44 |
| LaserJock | but the question might be if it was an upstream thing or whether it was an accident, etc. | 12:45 |
| WildTangent | tangerine-icon-theme (0.12-0ubuntu1) to 0.13-0ubuntu1, tango-icon-theme (0.7.2-0ubuntu2) to 0.7.2-0ubuntu3, tango-icon-theme-common (0.1-0ubuntu1) to 0.2-0ubuntu1, ubuntu-artwork (18) to 20 | 12:46 |
| WildTangent | those are the theme updates today | 12:47 |
| WildTangent | all ubuntu packages | 12:47 |
| LaserJock | ok, so then you can find them on https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/dapper-changes/2006-May/date.html and look at the changelog | 12:48 |
| WildTangent | latest i can find for tango was may 11 | 12:48 |

| WildTangent | thankyou | 12:50 |
| WildTangent | nothing looks suspect in there...maybe this was an unintentional mistake | 12:51 |

| desrt | big bad dapper bug!!! | 05:09 |
| desrt | if multiple users are logged in when you plugin a usb storage device then the 'wrong one' mounts it and gains sole permission to it | 05:10 |
| desrt | my sister tried to load up her mp3 player with my other sister logged in in the background | 05:10 |

| KaiL | the tools in the background (same problem for sound!) doesn't get any information, that a session is locked/disabled... | 05:12 |

| jsgotangco | yeah | 07:01 |

| wasabi_ | They have. | 07:13 |
| wasabi_ | apt-get install sun-j2sdk or something | 07:13 |
| wasabi_ | it's there right now. | 07:13 |
| desrt | in universe, multiverse? | 07:13 |
| wasabi_ | good question | 07:13 |
| wasabi_ | multiverse | 07:14 |
| wasabi_ | But it is finally packaged properly. | 07:14 |
| desrt | that's nice | 07:14 |
| wasabi_ | I'm a bit disappointed actually. | 07:15 |
| wasabi_ | I really like GCJ/kaffe. ;) | 07:15 |
| desrt | gcj is quite elite. | 07:15 |
| desrt | gcj is officially what makes java better than c# | 07:15 |
| wasabi_ | Heh. WHy do you say that? | 07:15 |
| desrt | native code | 07:15 |
| wasabi_ | C# has the same. | 07:15 |
| desrt | no need for a runtime environment | 07:15 |
| wasabi_ | Done in pretty much the same way. | 07:15 |
| wasabi_ | gcj still has a runtime environment. | 07:16 |
| wasabi_ | In fact, for EJB, and servlets, it's pretty much neccassary. | 07:16 |
| desrt | well, you need a GC, etc... | 07:16 |
| desrt | but i mean no virtual machine | 07:17 |
| desrt | it has a runtime in the sense that ghc-compiled executables do | 07:17 |
| wasabi_ | Well... Dunno what you mean by no virtual machine. It's a very fine line. | 07:17 |
| wasabi_ | GCJ needs to be able to compile java code and bytecode on the fly. | 07:17 |
| wasabi_ | To compile servlets and applets on the fly. | 07:17 |
| wasabi_ | And runtime bytecode generation. | 07:17 |
| wasabi_ | At the end of the day, they're all just generating bits of machine language and linking them together on the fly. | 07:18 |
| wasabi_ | Or reading pre-built bits off the disk. | 07:18 |
| wasabi_ | C# has a precompilation thing. Basically just plugs in and circumvents the JIT. | 07:18 |
| desrt | anyway. time for bed. | 07:19 |
| desrt | see you. | 07:19 |

| ivoks | :) | 09:07 |
| pitti | infinity: right, thanks | 09:07 |
| ivoks | pitti: yeah, that patch fixed IPP | 09:07 |
| infinity | pitti: You're the only person I know who actually wants his english corrected, so I'd be remiss if I didn't do so. :) | 09:08 |
| ivoks | but SMB is fishy... i won't say anything untill i test it | 09:08 |
| hendry | where should I send failed installation logs to? | 09:08 |
| pitti | ivoks: which direction? the cups -> windows print server direction should have been fixed yesterday (thanks to infinity) | 09:08 |
| ivoks | i need computer with working windows :/ | 09:09 |
| pitti | infinity: or do you mean windows client to cups server over smb? | 09:09 |
| infinity | Wrong "i" nick. | 09:09 |
| ivoks | pitti: i get access denied on printer, but it could be config issue | 09:09 |

| === infinity wonders how many more times the icons on his desktop are going to change before release. | ||
| infinity | It's like I get a whole new OS when I wake up and upgrade every morning. | 09:10 |
| pitti | did they change again? | 09:10 |
| === pitti calls restartgnome and watches | ||
| infinity | My Audio CD icon changed, and the connect types for NetworkManager got new icons. Not sure what else. | 09:11 |
| Burgundavia | infinity, grumble. UI freeze has come and gone | 09:11 |
| pitti | also, did the System menu get shorter yesterday? I don't actually miss anything, but I have the feeling something was dropped | 09:11 |
| crimsun | (I do like the new network monitor icons) | 09:12 |
| pitti | oh, I know! "Lock screen" -- /me looks at dholbach | 09:12 |
| infinity | Yeah, lock screen went away. And those icons keep changing too. | 09:12 |
| infinity | Log out is completely different today. | 09:12 |
| infinity | And had a computer with a power off button. Hrm. Mixed signals much? :) | 09:12 |
| dholbach | pitti: hu? | 09:13 |
| pitti | dholbach: moo | 09:13 |
| dholbach | they are going to change | 09:14 |
| infinity | pitti: I expect we're meant to lock the screen from the logoff menu now. | 09:14 |
| dholbach | and some icons might not be in the right place - I had to transition to use icon-naming-utils | 09:14 |
| === seb128 [n=seb128@ubuntu/member/seb128] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| dholbach | I'm not happy about it, but that's the way it is -- you can poke me or file a bug if something is wrong / feels wrong | 09:14 |
| === infinity just cheats and locks the screen using his laptop lid button anyway. | ||
| pitti | dholbach: putting 'lock screen' behind an icon with a power switch is even worse than putting 'change user' behind it... | 09:15 |
| pitti | hey seb128 | 09:15 |
| seb128 | hello pitti | 09:15 |
| pitti | dholbach: aside from that, it's an extra click | 09:15 |
| pitti | and the System menu isn't exactly crowded... | 09:15 |
| dholbach | pitti: it will change - bug is known, removing lockscreen was Mark's decision | 09:15 |
| infinity | If the recycle icon weren't already used for garbage/trash, it would be the ideal icon for "switch user/reboot/log out"... Too bad, really. | 09:16 |
| infinity | The whole feel of "recycling the computer" would work well. Damn Microsoft for turing that into a "deleted files" logo for everyone. | 09:16 |
| === pitti votes for a single 'System' menu entry 'Change system state...' which pops a huge dialog with 23 big icons | ||
| === infinity laughs. | ||
| dholbach | pitti: "Do something" | 09:17 |
| pitti | "Make it so!" | 09:17 |
| infinity | Why not get rid of the panel and menus altogether, and just have a huge icon in the middle of the desktop labelled "use computer"? | 09:17 |
| pygi | lol | 09:17 |

| infinity | ivoks: Err... | 09:19 |
| infinity | ivoks: It prints *and* says access denied? | 09:19 |
| pitti | ivoks: erm, you mean printing from the windows box works? or just in genereal, i. e. locally? | 09:19 |
| ivoks | right | 09:19 |
| ivoks | from windows to cups1.2 works (ipp and smb) | 09:19 |
| infinity | Maybe Windows is trying to view the spool and hasn't enough permissions to do that? | 09:19 |
| ivoks | but smb says Access denied, unable to connect | 09:19 |
| infinity | (Hence the access denied) | 09:19 |
| ivoks | could be | 09:19 |
| ivoks | i don't do printing over samba very often :) | 09:20 |
| infinity | Okay, quick, someone tell me how to setup a null printer (print to postscript or something) in CUPS. | 09:20 |
| infinity | I can test the Windows->SMB->CUPS stuff here. | 09:20 |
| infinity | But I have no printer. :) | 09:20 |
| === pitti would guess 'DeviceURI file:///tmp/print.ps' in /etc/cups/printers.conf | ||

| infinity | pitti: Does it need updating to work with cups 1.2? | 09:31 |
| pitti | infinity: cups-pdf iz broken | 09:31 |
| janimo | pygi: so ubuntu-live is not on an ubiquity installed system? | 09:31 |

| pygi | janimo, well, ubuntu-live *and therefore xubuntu-live* shouldnt be there after installation | 09:32 |
| pitti | infinity: Mike removed the RunAsUser option in 1.2, so you can't any more | 09:32 |

| pitti | (that was a very bad idea, yes...) | 09:32 |
| infinity | Oh. Fun. | 09:32 |

| pitti | infinity: then you can create an arbitrary printer (preferably with Generic/PostScript driver) in gnome-cups-add and then change printers.conf | 09:34 |
| pygi | Gloubiboulga, ergh, I thought that bug was fixed | 09:34 |
| pygi | from what live cd? | 09:34 |
| Gloubiboulga | may 15th IIRC | 09:35 |

| pygi | janimo, have you tracked bug like that for Ubuntu on launchpad? | 09:36 |

| ivoks | pitti: on login screen, hit ctrl+alt+del twice | 09:44 |

| ivoks | if it's XP | 09:44 |
| ivoks | so, java is going open source after all? says Shwartz | 09:47 |
| janimo | pitti, sorry to bring this up again, but is there a chance to consider a separate evince-gtk source pkg for main? | 09:48 |
| janimo | doing it withing evince proper is too instrusive | 09:48 |
| janimo | and I have cleaned up the package FWIW so it's almost like the evince one | 09:48 |
| infinity | pitti: Okay, same results. A WinXP test page printed fine, but the spool viewer claims lack of rights to the printer. | 09:49 |
| janimo | otherwise an alternative would be another app in main (epdfview) but evince is more tested | 09:49 |
| pygi | ivoks, indeed, just we dont know which licence yet | 09:49 |
| infinity | pitti: I'll poke at that. | 09:49 |
| pygi | ivoks, perhaps "Sun Open Source Licence" :-D | 09:49 |
| ivoks | infinity: imho, this is samba issue | 09:49 |
| janimo | another alternative is no doc viewer at all in default install | 09:49 |
| infinity | ivoks: Perhaps, but I don't recall ever having this issue before. | 09:49 |
| ivoks | me too | 09:50 |
| ivoks | infinity: smbd[14535] : astro (192.168.0.101) couldn't find service ::{2227a280-3aea-1069-a2de-08002b30309d} | 09:50 |
| ivoks | infinity: that's only error i get in logs | 09:50 |
| crimsun | janimo: just considering security, I'd vote for no doc viewer by default to avoid yet more source to fix | 09:50 |
| infinity | pitti: Should I be concerned about all the "cupsdAuthorize: Local authentication certificate not found!" in the log file? | 09:51 |
| janimo | crimsun: right, althoug most flaws are in poppler not the viewver itslef no? | 09:51 |
| infinity | ivoks: In which log are you seeing that? | 09:51 |
| crimsun | janimo: hmm, yes | 09:51 |
| ivoks | infinity: syslog (i redirected samba logs in syslog, and set syslog level to 256) | 09:51 |
| ivoks | infinity: astro is a client machine | 09:52 |
| infinity | pitti: Also, cupsd complains repeatedly about not being able to open access_log. | 09:52 |
| ivoks | infinity: certificate is cause it trys SSL first | 09:52 |
| ivoks | tries | 09:52 |
| janimo | crimsun: and the slight advantage over this kind of duplication is that you fix the same thing, whereas with a totally different app you may have a new flaw altogether | 09:52 |
| infinity | pitti: Hrm, which could be because it was created as root... | 09:53 |
| janimo | s/over/of/ | 09:53 |
| infinity | ivoks: Okay, as I thought. The "Access Denied" is because WinXP is probing to see if it can admin the remote print spool. | 09:56 |
| infinity | ivoks: Adding "printer admin = @lpadmin" to my smb.conf, doing "adduser testuser lpadmin", and restarting samba made the error go away. | 09:57 |
| ivoks | infinity: right... | 09:58 |
| infinity | ivoks: Either way, with or without that error, I can print to the printer just fine. The error seems to only relate to spool manipulation, not job creation. | 09:58 |
| infinity | pitti: ^^^ | 09:58 |
| ivoks | infinity: but... you know what's funny | 09:58 |
| ivoks | infinity: after restart it's Ready and doesn't print | 09:58 |

| mvo | pitti: hello, its on people.u.c (ubuntu7.2) | 10:25 |
| mvo | ivoks: we changed it so that browsing and shareing are independant options | 10:25 |
| Kamion | AnAnt: the process involves turning up at least a month ago; we look forward to your time machine :) | 10:26 |
| ivoks | mvo: ok... it makes sense and that's what i wanted first | 10:26 |
| AnAnt | Kamion: np, it can be in the one after, right ? | 10:27 |

| pitti | ivoks: let's consider that post-release :) | 10:38 |
| ivoks | pitti: so i guess, for edgy we have sharing covered | 10:39 |
| ivoks | pitti: of course that's for post-release :) | 10:39 |
| pitti | ivoks: but in short, cups 1.2 has dbus support now, so we should tie this into the gui | 10:39 |
| ivoks | i see, for local autodetection | 10:39 |
| pitti | ivoks: i. e. plugging in a new printer should spawn g-cups-add or something even simpler automatically if the printer is not yet configured | 10:39 |
| ivoks | right | 10:39 |
| ivoks | that could be done for edgy | 10:39 |

| mdz | infinity: but you said you tried that before and couldn't reproduce it | 10:48 |

| === Huahua [n=hua_@221.172.49.149] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| infinity | janimo: Older livefs build failures appeared to be due to xubuntu-desktop being uninstallable, which I assumed you would have known about... | 11:29 |
| janimo | infinity: right. iwj uploaded a xubuntu-docs yesterday may be it? | 11:29 |
| janimo | although I just installed fine here | 11:30 |
| pitti | janimo: see http://people.ubuntu.com/~cjwatson/anastacia.txt | 11:32 |
| pitti | janimo: apparently xubuntu-desktop depends on some universe packages | 11:32 |
| janimo | pitti, hmm those which have not yet been promoted | 11:32 |
| pitti | janimo: I recognize the names, most (all) of them have been approved, so they need to be promoted | 11:33 |
| janimo | but it's ok since the seeds to not translate to the desktop package | 11:33 |
| janimo | pitti, they have been in the seeds for the long time. But the script wjhich makes xubuntu-desjtop ignores them so np AFAIK | 11:33 |
| janimo | pitti, yes 5 of them you approved yesterday :) | 11:33 |
| pitti | janimo: seeding is fine, but as long as the packages are in universe, they are uninstallable | 11:33 |
| janimo | xubuntu-desktop has been installable afaik. Weird, can liveCD install fail if I can just install the package fine on an existing system? | 11:34 |
| janimo | so liveCD uses it's own thing instead of apt if I recall corerecly? | 11:35 |
| pitti | janimo: because you have universe enabled? | 11:35 |
| janimo | pitti, not because univers | 11:35 |
| janimo | pitti, xubuntu-desktop the metapackage does not depend on universe stuff | 11:35 |
| janimo | only the desktop seed has them | 11:35 |
| janimo | they are only going from seed to metapckage when they are in main | 11:36 |
| janimo | until then I thought the do no harm, but apparently liveCD cares | 11:36 |
| infinity | janimo: ubuntu-desktop is obviously installable now (or we wouldn't be getting the ubuntu-docs failure), so I think the point is moot. | 11:38 |
| infinity | janimo: It /was/ uninstallible in the past, that's all. | 11:39 |
| Kamion | mdke: will do, but the only one I was aware of lately outside of ubiquity was in user-setup, which came with a bunch of translations from upstream | 11:39 |
| Kamion | mdke: I don't intend for there to be any more, though | 11:39 |
| Kamion | janimo: I noticed the same build failure yesterday | 11:39 |
| janimo | infinity: I am not saying it was not, just that maybe it could have been causing problems ofr livecd build but otherwise install fine | 11:40 |
| mdke | Kamion: ok. If you want to pass me an answer to that email, I'll pass it on (about when you're going to be downloading the translations) | 11:40 |
| Kamion | mdke: I expect I'll do it on Sunday night or Monday morning, if that's OK with mdz ... | 11:40 |
| Kamion | Thursday evening is cutting it a bit fine, and I'll be away Friday -> Sunday | 11:40 |
| mdke | Kamion: same as with the docs :) great, I'll pass that on | 11:41 |
| Kamion | mdke: if you don't mind being a conduit for me, it might also be worth passing on that where the installer is concerned, I always let upstream translations take priority; anything else means that I get put in the position of trying to decide which of two strings I don't understand is better, when it comes to merge time | 11:42 |
| Kamion | so "accidentally overwriting some Rosetta translations" is wrong, but only because it's deliberate | 11:42 |
| janimo | Kamion: ok, looks like my latest xbuntu-docs upload botched something | 11:43 |
| Kamion | unfortunately there is no good Rosetta workflow for passing string changes made in Rosetta upstream, at present, so if translators are making necessary corrections then they really need to pass those upstream themselves | 11:44 |
| Kamion | (similarly, I can't realistically pass all of those on, because I don't know why they were made) | 11:44 |
| mdke | Kamion: sure thing | 11:44 |

| mdke | Kamion: also, when you say you give priority to upstream, that is when merging into Rosetta, so any later changes in Rosetta will still be effective, correct? | 11:57 |
| Kamion | mdke: forward/back> those are stock gtk strings | 11:58 |
| Kamion | mdke: (although I may switch to the "Go Back" / "Continue" strings that are already translated, because gtk strings require language packs to be installed; haven't decided yet, but it won't require translator action either way) | 11:58 |
| mdke | Kamion: gotcha | 11:59 |
| Kamion | mdke: I completely ignore Rosetta changes to installer strings that have existing translations upstream; I'm just not equipped to make that decision | 11:59 |
| Kamion | so I go for minimal diff to upstream as a default action | 11:59 |
| mdke | whoa | 11:59 |
| Kamion | remember that the installer is not subject to language packs, so I have to import everything by hand | 11:59 |
| mdke | so when you download the rosetta translations, you strip out those which have changed since upstream? | 12:00 |
| Kamion | I think you've got the sense of the activity the wrong way round | 12:00 |
| Kamion | I have to apply all these by hand - I only apply changes to Ubuntu-specific strings and ones which don't have existing translations upstream | 12:01 |
| Kamion | there isn't really an active stripping out | 12:01 |
| === ToadZzZztool is now known as Toadstool | ||
| mdke | well, all the upstream strings are also in the po files in rosetta, so in theory you could get everything there, and give effect to the changes of the ubuntu teams. but, anyway, I've got the answer, thanks | 12:02 |
| Kamion | I could, but I'd have to upload every installer package | 12:02 |
| Kamion | there are like 50-odd of them | 12:02 |
| mdke | ah right | 12:02 |
| Kamion | the human effort on my part would be really very considerable indeed | 12:02 |
| mdke | ok, it's useful for the translators to know what's up, because the behaviour is different for everything else (ubuntu changes take precedence). thanks for the info | 12:03 |
| Kamion | I'm happy to take changes if translators let me know that they're super-urgent, but I just can't manage it as a general rule | 12:03 |

| mdke | np, i think in general people will be happy for upstream to take precedence | 12:03 |
| mdke | the other way round has often been problematic | 12:04 |
| Kamion | and as I say, for Ubuntu-specific strings obviously I get translations for those from Rosetta | 12:04 |

| ogra | Kamion, i'd think its a very special case to match the point where a package thats on CD 2 has no deps :) | 12:27 |

| Kamion | probably a side-effect of switching to bzr; I'll sort it out | 12:30 |
| Kamion | thanks | 12:30 |
| iwj | ogra: I don't think my change can have caused this but the right approach is to debug it. | 12:30 |
| ogra | thanks as well :) | 12:30 |
| ogra | iwj, yep, will check it | 12:30 |
| iwj | Thanks. | 12:30 |
| Kamion | right, that 'make' should have taken care of it | 12:31 |
| iwj | ogra: Also, note that we've had some difficulty with the `firefox-homepage' alternative mistakenly getting set to `manual'. | 12:31 |
| Kamion | let me know if it still happens tomorrow | 12:31 |
| iwj | ogra: It doesn't happen every time and I suspect a bad package some time earlier in dapper to be responsible but it might be relevant. | 12:31 |
| iwj | So if `update-alternatives --display firefox-homepage' shows manual, then that's probably the bug. | 12:32 |

| Kamion | the thing is that about the only thing that's changed that could cause all that breakage is that we've recompiled | 12:38 |
| ogra | i wonder if these machines have nvidia cards | 12:38 |
| Kamion | ogra: no | 12:38 |
| Kamion | pseries won't | 12:38 |
| Kamion | (at least I'd be astonished) | 12:38 |
| Kamion | so I think it might be due to building with gcc-4.0 | 12:39 |
| ogra | hmm,, i still see usplash timeouts on ppc | 12:39 |
| ogra | and i know we have a bug that hardlocks with nvidia drivers if you switch to coinsole | 12:39 |
| Kamion | please stop conflating bugs! | 12:39 |
| Kamion | good grief, not every powerpc bug is the same | 12:39 |
| Kamion | I'd like somebody to try building yaboot with gcc-3.3 and putting together a test CD image for these folks to try | 12:40 |
| Kamion | to see if that clears it up | 12:40 |
| Kamion | if it does, we need to roll back yaboot to building with gcc-3.3, and start diffing assembly and stuff to find out where the bug is | 12:40 |
| ogra | does it need to be a CD ? wouldnt a package and running ybin suffice ? | 12:42 |
| Kamion | a CD would be a lot easier for people to test in some of these cases | 12:42 |
| Kamion | they do not all have working Ubuntu installs | 12:42 |

| Kamion | um, I had been thinking of starting with an actual CD build though rather than from the installer; for instance I can't guarantee that the breakage isn't due to Ben's automatic powerpc/powerpc64 switching code, which would take some effort to reproduce based on the d-i output in your mirror | 01:01 |
| Kamion | I'll build a CD image with dists and pool stripped out based on today's daily build, which should be a lot quicker to download | 01:02 |

| dholbach | infinity: yes, quite an aged one | 01:19 |
| iwj | Kamion: Just to be sure I'm not completely confused, what I plan to do is to unpack gcc-3.3 in my filespace in one of the DC ppc chroots and then build yaboot from dapper using that. I expect this to produce a udeb which I stuff into the fs image. Is that right ? | 01:20 |
| infinity | iwj: No, we're talking about the actual yaboot used to boot the CD in this case. | 01:22 |
| Kamion | iwj: nearly, except for the udeb bit; the .deb it produces will contain /usr/lib/yaboot/yaboot, with which you should overwrite /install/yaboot in the image | 01:22 |

| sivang | Kamion, infinity : I really need to free up some time and test it, or get a pSeries over home :) | 01:26 |
| infinity | sivang: You're welcome to convince IBM (or, more likely, a small IBM vendor with their hearts in the right place) to ship me a really low powered one. | 01:26 |
| infinity | sivang: But no amount of testing at this point will allow us to fix any but the simplest bugs, so here's hoping it already works. | 01:27 |
| sivang | infinity: hehe, I'm already on a waiting list of one like this when it gets availabel from a local IBM consultancy firm, which I have connections at. | 01:27 |

| infinity | lifeless: 'sup? | 02:51 |
| lifeless | I think there is a possible upgrade bug from breezy with smbget and smbclient | 02:52 |
| infinity | lifeless: ? | 02:52 |
| lifeless | if you have breezy smbclient on your machine - 'smbclient', '3.0.14a-6ubuntu1' | 02:52 |
| === infinity grabs it. | ||
| lifeless | and in upgrading to dapper smgbet 0.6-1 is unpacked before the smbclient package, or if you are just installing the one thing, then the replaces line in smbclient 3.0.22 wont take effect | 02:53 |
| lifeless | and the files that moved from smbclient to smbget will make dpkg complain | 02:53 |
| infinity | Err. | 02:54 |
| infinity | Other way around, you mean, I assume. | 02:54 |
| infinity | Looks like smbget went from smbget to smbclient. | 02:54 |
| infinity | And smbclient properly replaces it. | 02:54 |
| infinity | So I'm not sure what the bug is you're actually seeing. | 02:54 |
| lifeless | infinity: well, I was seeing a report that the smbclient in breezy has files that are in smbget in dapper. | 02:55 |
| infinity | No, it doesn't. | 02:55 |
| infinity | (smbget in dapper should just be dropped anyway) | 02:55 |
| lifeless | let me pull the thing apart, one sec. | 02:55 |
| infinity | smbclient in dapper conflicts/replaces smbget. | 02:55 |
| infinity | lifeless: Do you have a bug report for this? | 02:56 |
| infinity | lifeless: With angry dpkg output and such? | 02:56 |
| lifeless | infinity: I'm considering whether to file one, or whether to try and make this failure happen to generate output | 02:57 |
| lifeless | I dont have a breezy chroot handy to test with is all | 02:57 |
| infinity | lifeless: I don't see how "it" can happen at all, unless it's someone complaining that the packages conflict (which they clearly do). | 02:57 |
| infinity | Conflicting packages isn't a bug, however. | 02:57 |
| infinity | Every time a package gets phased out, mind you, people report a bug on the "OMG, apt is trying to remove a package" behaviour. | 02:58 |
| lifeless | infinity: I think you are presuming smbclient is upgraded at the same time | 02:58 |
| infinity | I'm presuming no such thing. | 02:58 |
| infinity | It doesn't matter who is upgraded when, as soon as smbclient is upgraded to a recent version, it will force the removal of smbget. | 02:58 |
| infinity | lifeless: Anyhow, if you can get a coherent testcase to show me the actual bug in question, holler back. | 03:02 |
| lifeless | yes | 03:02 |
| infinity | lifeless: But it all sounds pretty non-buggy to me. | 03:02 |
| lifeless | I have to look at why this cropped up, my diagnostics are still, uhm, primitive. | 03:02 |
| === Kamion is also talking about this with lifeless in /msg; I think his script is buggy | ||
| Kamion | infinity: lifeless is putting together code to automatically detect file overwrite errors | 03:03 |
| infinity | Contents.gz (breezy) -> Contents.gz (dapper) -> overlaps -> check for conflicts or replaces, apply same heuristics dpkg would, profit? | 03:05 |
| Kamion | diversions are the hard bit ... | 03:05 |
| lifeless | infinity: diversions, version skew, arch specific issues, deep history to warn of problems during development rather than just HEAD to HEAD | 03:06 |
| Kamion | lifeless: it's always best to verify quickly with dpkg -c before coming to the distro team, BTW. :) | 03:06 |
| infinity | diversions are going to be a serious pain, yes. | 03:06 |
| sivang | infinity , Kamion : http://muse.19inch.net/~sivan/error.png | 03:06 |
| infinity | Since there are dozens of ways to divert things. | 03:06 |
| lifeless | Kamion: indeed. still tracking | 03:06 |
| === sivang thanks the gods of vmware to have added screenshotting of a VM's display. | ||
| Kamion | sivang: may well be the same issue. Do you have time to try a real daily install CD rather than the one I stripped down by hand | 03:07 |
| Kamion | ? | 03:07 |
| Kamion | hang on. are you telling me that vmware can emulate a pseries? | 03:07 |
| sivang | Kamion: nono :) | 03:08 |
| sivang | Kamion: I just run the HMC remote client from a vmware image of win32 box under a 64bit ubuntu breezy host :) | 03:08 |
| Kamion | ah | 03:08 |
| Kamion | "just" | 03:08 |
| sivang | heh | 03:08 |
| sivang | yeah | 03:08 |

| janimo | as last time I put the clinet-builder in istaller seed and it broke regular install | 04:22 |
| jdong|coreduo | (sorry bout that) | 04:23 |

| janimo | oh, preseed, you lost me again. Yes I still have not mounted the ISO and played with preseed :) | 04:24 |
| mvo | siretart: sorry, my description was not clear. gnome-vfs is not a option for gdebi because we don't want gnome dependencies in it (for xfce). but urllib has some disadvantages compared to apt_pkgs retriever support (i.e. easy resue of the progress classes) | 04:24 |

| carlos | OculusAquilae: I will try to import that one today, I usually add some of them from time to time | 04:41 |

| OculusAquilae | carlos: so the same problem with keep (on that list too) | 04:42 |
| carlos | right | 04:42 |
| carlos | no updates were done to those packages after the soyuz migration so we didn't get the translation resources, that's why I need to upload them by hand | 04:43 |

| carlos | or at least I don't have it available | 04:49 |
| carlos | OculusAquilae: either force a new build of it, or send me a valid .pot file | 04:49 |
| OculusAquilae | I could send you one | 04:49 |

| Kamion | I think I'd rather do it first thing edgy now | 07:56 |

| neutrinomass | Hello. I wrote up the sync-mount spec yesterday. If anybody is interested in it, you can find it at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SyncMount . Thanks. | 10:05 |
| infinity | neutrinomass: removable devices aren't mounted "sync" on purpose. | 10:08 |
| infinity | neutrinomass: One of the rationales for that is because sync can cause undue stress and wear on flash memory devices, seriously reducing their lifespan. | 10:09 |
| neutrinomass | infinity: But they are mounted sync under windows, aren't they ? | 10:10 |
| wasabi__ | Your spec is also slightly flawed. You have to umount on windows too | 10:10 |
| wasabi__ | Nope. | 10:10 |
| wasabi__ | You have to "Safely Remove Devices" | 10:10 |
| wasabi__ | with that little icon in the sys tray. | 10:10 |
| infinity | Yeah, windows has the "safely remove devices" thing. | 10:10 |
| neutrinomass | wasabi_ : I've never had to unmount on Windows :S ... maybe I am wrong though .... | 10:10 |
| wasabi__ | Well, for USB devices you do, or you have a big chance of losing data. | 10:11 |
| neutrinomass | wasabi_: On the other hand, I haven't used windows in qutie a while ... | 10:11 |
| infinity | I know for a fact that it doesn't always sync on write, since I just unplugged my cell phone from a WinXP machine yesterday and noticed nothing had been written to it. :) | 10:11 |
| wasabi__ | I do think explorer causes a sync at the end of a large file operation on it's own, though. | 10:11 |
| === pygi [n=pygi@83.131.239.188] has left #ubuntu-devel ["Night] | ||
| infinity | I'm not sure how or when it decides to flush. It obviously does eventually. | 10:11 |
| wasabi__ | Yeah, and I've done that too, so I'm not certain what it's rules are. | 10:11 |
| Loiosh | It does peridically through an operation and at the end | 10:11 |
| infinity | But not reliably. Hence the "safely remove devices" applet. | 10:11 |
| wasabi__ | I guess syncing at the end of a large file operation would be a nice thing for nautilus to do. | 10:12 |
| wasabi__ | Depending on the size, etc. | 10:12 |
| wasabi__ | Dunno. ;) | 10:13 |
| neutrinomass | infinity: : flash devices have limited read/writes or a limited size of that that can be written? | 10:13 |
| wasabi__ | limited read/writes. | 10:13 |
| wasabi__ | Actually, limited writes. | 10:13 |
| wasabi__ | Reads are unlimited, usually. | 10:13 |
| infinity | neutrinomass: All megnetic media has a limited write cycle. Flash memory just happens to be more fragile generally. | 10:13 |
| infinity | neutrinomass: Floppies are even worse, but no one uses them anymore... <shrug> | 10:14 |
| wasabi__ | vfat also happens to be terrible at it for flash memory. | 10:14 |
| === zyga [n=zyga@ubuntu/member/zyga] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| === Loiosh uses floppies!!! | ||
| wasabi__ | having the fat in a static place on the device. | 10:14 |
| omeg | Hey infinity | 10:14 |
| neutrinomass | infinity: I use floppies :P ! | 10:14 |
| omeg | I finished that font. | 10:14 |
| omeg | http://omega.avalanchestudios.net/personal/dropbox/usplash/new/Usplash_Mono.bdf <-- I hope that it works, xmbdfed is a very strange program and I don't trust it at all. | 10:14 |
| infinity | omeg: It may well be too late to sneak it past the Powers That Be, but I'm happy to look at it anyway. | 10:14 |
| neutrinomass | infinity: Then again I guess you are right regarding the life span of flash devices. I guess I was wrong :( | 10:15 |
| infinity | omeg: Yeah, every free font editor I've found is pretty crap. :/ | 10:15 |
| omeg | Well, if you consider it too late to "sneak it past", maybe I'll just toss it on the ubuntu-art mailing list and beg for inclusion. | 10:15 |
| trappist | noatime helps extend write life by not beating on the same part of the medium for every write | 10:15 |
| omeg | Since I feel it's kind of important. The current font really sucks. | 10:15 |
| infinity | omeg: ubuntu-art isn't uploading usplash. | 10:15 |
| wasabi__ | trappist: on vfat you have the FAT table in the same spot anyways. | 10:15 |
| omeg | Well, you're right. | 10:15 |
| omeg | devel, then? | 10:16 |
| wasabi__ | trappist: So any file additions modify that one part of the disk, always. | 10:16 |
| trappist | wasabi__: yeah no way around it for vfat I guess | 10:16 |
| infinity | omeg: The bikeshedding going on there is entertaining, but won't sway me a whole bunch in the end. | 10:16 |
| wasabi__ | Yeah. | 10:16 |
| neutrinomass | Pffft, so much for my first spec. Thanks though :) | 10:16 |
| wasabi__ | Ther'es just not much way around that one. | 10:16 |
| infinity | omeg: The biggest issue, of course, is that switching from a proprotional font to a monospace font, while desireable, may have an odd effect on some strings. | 10:16 |
| infinity | omeg: I'd have to do a fair bit of testing to make sure we don't overflow the stupid text box, etc. | 10:17 |
| omeg | Whatever feedback you still have, I can still work on for now. I think it's already a whole lot better than the current font, though. | 10:17 |
| infinity | omeg: (And don't take that as any sort of criticism. I WANT a monospace font, I just don't know if I can get it in this late) | 10:17 |
| omeg | It would be awesome if you could find the time for it before the repackaging of usplash. The usplash images are about to be voted for, probably will be in the next few days. | 10:17 |
| infinity | Voting? | 10:18 |
| infinity | I was just going to upload v550's image and be done with it. :) | 10:18 |
| omeg | I'm not sure, actually. | 10:18 |
| omeg | Nooo, it's awful. | 10:18 |
| infinity | Name one that's less awful. | 10:18 |
| infinity | They're all horrible dithered ickfests. | 10:18 |
| infinity | But so was the breezy one. | 10:18 |
| omeg | Any of mine: http://omega.avalanchestudios.net/personal/dropbox/usplash/new/newsuggestion_2_8_SCALED.png - http://omega.avalanchestudios.net/personal/dropbox/usplash/new/newsuggestion_1_8_SCALED.png - http://omega.avalanchestudios.net/personal/dropbox/usplash/new/newsuggestion_0_8_SCALED.png | 10:18 |
| omeg | Full list here: http://omega.avalanchestudios.net/personal/dropbox/usplash/new/ | 10:19 |
| omeg | You know, it really may sound like I'm passing the ubuntu-art team here, and I actually am right now, but I really do think that v550's splash screen is awful, man. I mean, not even the gradient is correctly vertically aligned. | 10:19 |
| omeg | My rationale was to make a splash screen that was similar to the old one, but with new colors and better dithering and while creating compatibility with both the LegacyHuman theme and Tangerine. | 10:20 |
| infinity | 0 is okay. The version number on 1 is horrid IMO, and the "logo only" thing, while super cool if we were doing a minimal splash, looks a bit lop-sided when you add the progress bar and text box to it. | 10:20 |
| omeg | I think that 2 is very cool, but you're right that it would look kind of off. | 10:21 |
| infinity | But, 0 is basically what we shipped in breezy, with new colours, and less poorly dithered, I think. :) | 10:21 |
| omeg | I really hope that my 0 will get some support. | 10:21 |
| tseng | 0 is pretty good | 10:21 |
| tseng | cleaner than breezy | 10:21 |
| omeg | Well, v550's is the same as what you shipped in breezy, except with a gradient that's off and without glow. Man, I sound awful, preaching my own stuff like that | 10:21 |
| omeg | Anyway, you should probably just pick one from the list at the wiki... https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Usplash/DapperPropositions | 10:22 |
| infinity | Yeah, I already did. It was down to one of v550s, one of yours (0), and someone else's. | 10:22 |
| omeg | I'll add a sample bar plus text and "fail", "ok" colors to mine later tonight. | 10:22 |
| === infinity checks who the someone else was. | ||
| infinity | Oh, kwwii. | 10:22 |
| omeg | Seriously, though, I'll ask v550 to fix his gradient. | 10:22 |
| Loiosh | wii! | 10:23 |
| omeg | Well, I'm going to make that last mockup then. | 10:23 |
| === Hirion [n=hirion@draugr.de] has left #ubuntu-devel [] | ||
| infinity | I liked kwwii's "no gradient" one... Mainly because "no gradient" means "less dithering" means "we win". | 10:25 |
| infinity | His first one (with a much more subtle gradient than v550) is nice too. | 10:25 |
| infinity | Nevermind that his shadows seem a bit off, I'm just talking about the logo and the brand name in this case. | 10:26 |
| infinity | kwwii clearly has the skills to fix those images if someone asks him to. | 10:26 |
| omeg | I kind of like shadows and gradients and glows. It's not that difficult to get the dithering right. | 10:26 |
| _ion | I like newsuggestion_0 the most so far. | 10:27 |
| === neutrinomass [n=pandis@ppp86-120.adsl.forthnet.gr] has left #ubuntu-devel [] | ||
| infinity | omeg: On your scaled ones, did you hand-tweak them after squishing the aspect ratio? | 10:27 |
| infinity | omeg: Or work at them in the "wrong" aspect ratio from the get-go? | 10:27 |

| _ion | More than d_final_v550_ubuntu.png | 10:28 |
| infinity | omeg: Anyhow, if I were uploading tomorrow (and hey, maybe I am), I'd probably just use newsuggestion_0_8_SCALED.png | 10:29 |
| infinity | omeg: If the art people and anyone who signs my paycheque get together and agree to override me (or someone else comes up with something better RIGHT NOW), then so be it. | 10:29 |
| infinity | omeg: Can you do matching ones for {ed,k,x}ubuntu? | 10:30 |
| infinity | omeg: And can you help the poor xubuntu folk make their logo look.. Nice? :/ | 10:31 |
| === guerby [n=guerby@gut75-4-82-235-162-148.fbx.proxad.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| omeg | infinity: Sure, I'll do matching ones for all three others. Tonight if it's required. | 10:32 |
| omeg | Also, yes, I did hand-tweak them; I simply made a 16 color version of the original 32-bit layered image and then manually tweaked the dithering a little bit in those few spots where it didn't fully work out. | 10:33 |
| omeg | I think that the original usplash image was scaled from the already 16 color image. | 10:34 |
| infinity | omeg: Well, it shows. They look a lot less crap than the ones I scaled 6 months ago. :) | 10:34 |
| omeg | Strangely, it still looked pretty good, though... I didn't even notice that it was until I opened up the original version, actually. | 10:34 |

| omeg | Do you have access to any original version of the old usplash? | 10:35 |
| infinity | Define "original"... You talking GIMP files, or just the un-scaled PNG? | 10:35 |
| === _ion is thankful to omeg for getting a good usplash artwork done. :-) | ||
| omeg | Well, either. | 10:35 |
| infinity | I have the latter. Not the former. | 10:35 |
| omeg | You're welcome, _ion :) I'm glad that there's still time for inclusion... | 10:36 |
| omeg | I thought we were _way_ past UI freeze already. | 10:36 |
| omeg | infinity: unscaled and in 32-bit? | 10:36 |
| omeg | Just wondering. | 10:36 |
| infinity | omeg: No, 4-bit. | 10:36 |
| omeg | Ah, so. Well, I'll be back in a few. v550 is editing the page now so I'll add my last mockup then. | 10:36 |
| infinity | omeg: http://cerberus.0c3.net/~adconrad/usplash-artwork.png | 10:37 |
| infinity | omeg: That's what we shipped in breezy (which used a 640x480 framebuffer)... And that's what I mangled to turn into the 640x400 image we have in dapper right now. :) | 10:37 |
| jcole | the lemerou non-dithered boot screens look very nice | 10:38 |

| _ion | jcole: They seem to be 640x480 | 10:41 |

| jcole | _ion: hmm... i know that the hppa arch has /dev/fb0 available at 1280x1024 | 10:42 |
| _ion | jcole: I meant the lemerou pictures. The images should be 640x400 AFAIK. | 10:42 |
| jcole | _ion: ya, you're right... i think i like the way the logo is presented here -> http://ftpmerou.free.fr/ubuntu/usplash3.png | 10:49 |
| jcole | _ion: err, here -> http://ftpmerou.free.fr/ubuntu/usplash2.png | 10:50 |

| omeg | Nevermind the sentence... Dutch pangram. :P | 11:10 |
| infinity | omeg: Is that representative of the pallette colours that are indexed for text in your splash? | 11:17 |
| infinity | omeg: If so, I think you picked ones that are a bit too bright. | 11:17 |
| sladen | omeg: I making all of the text colours the same as the "ok" might improve it. currently it "glares" | 11:17 |
| infinity | omeg: http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/dapperbeta#head-89fe9d664e80740b5bd35bf704bd2a022548be06 | 11:17 |
| sladen | I think ... | 11:17 |
| infinity | omeg: The current text colour is much less harsh. | 11:18 |
| infinity | omeg: Also, did you include a reddish colour for fail in the pallette? | 11:18 |
| omeg | Hmm.... maybe. | 11:18 |
| sladen | infinity: I was hoping the red text could be made the same as the normal text colour | 11:18 |
| infinity | omeg: (I know there's contention about "fail" being scary, but for dapper, humour me and let's keep it scary) | 11:19 |
| sladen | but yes, there needs be a palette entry | 11:19 |
| omeg | Let me alter that one more time. | 11:19 |
| === wasabi [n=wasabi@207.55.180.150] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| omeg | Also, as it is right now, there's not a red color for "fail". I didn't think it would be necessary, so I decided that it's best off being spent on the logo so the dithering looks as good as it can be. | 11:20 |
| sladen | omeg: nope, it's a required palette entry | 11:20 |
| ogra | omeg, i really like the logo only ones with black background you did, nice work :) | 11:20 |
| sladen | omeg: "part of the spec" | 11:20 |
| sladen | ogra: I'm hoping they get dropped in for edgy :) | 11:21 |
| ogra | dropped for ? or dropped into ? | 11:21 |
| omeg | sladen: does the spec say it needs to be red? If so, I'll add it... but I'll have to redither it. | 11:21 |
| Trewas | btw, not all monitors are created equal... I installed flight 6 onto a computer with an old 15" crt monitor and the usplash colors are so dark that reading the text is almost impossible, so erring on the side of "too bright" would be sometimes preferable... | 11:21 |
| ogra | oh, i misread .... didnt swee the "in" | 11:21 |
| ogra | *see | 11:21 |
| sladen | omeg: the spec is that it needs to be a separate colour. | 11:22 |
| ogra | sladen, whats wrong with uding them now ? | 11:22 |
| omeg | Ah, okay. | 11:22 |
| ogra | *using | 11:22 |
| omeg | So it doesn't matter whether it's red or not; it just needs to be a unique color. | 11:22 |
| infinity | omeg: No, it doesn' thave to be red. Making it one of the really bright colours from your dithered image would work. | 11:22 |
| omeg | One that's not used in the dithering in the image. | 11:22 |
| omeg | infinity: er... | 11:22 |
| infinity | It could be reused, there's no reason why not. | 11:22 |
| omeg | Ah | 11:22 |
| infinity | It just needs to be in a specific palette location. | 11:22 |
| omeg | Okay then. I personally think that the brightest color would work. | 11:22 |
| omeg | Do I need to arrange the palette myself, or can I just mention which color entries are the right ones? | 11:23 |
| infinity | Less effort for me if you fix the palette yourself. | 11:23 |
| sladen | omeg: might be easiest if you do, since then you're in control | 11:23 |
| infinity | #define BACKGROUND_COLOUR 0 | 11:23 |
| infinity | #define PROGRESSBAR_COLOUR 1 | 11:23 |
| infinity | #define PROGRESSBAR_BACKGROUND 4 | 11:23 |
| infinity | #define TEXT_BACKGROUND 0 | 11:23 |
| infinity | #define TEXT_FOREGROUND 2 | 11:23 |
| infinity | #define RED 13 | 11:23 |
| infinity | Those are the palette locations. | 11:23 |
| sladen | omeg: the locations are on: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/USplashCustomizationHowto | 11:24 |
| omeg | I'm not sure if I can do that with Photoshop (yes, I'm not using gimp, hehe) | 11:24 |
| omeg | I'll look aroaund | 11:24 |
| omeg | *around. | 11:24 |
| sladen | omeg: ahhh, that's why the dithered is ordered and looks crap compared to GIMP's dithering :) | 11:25 |
| omeg | Tsh. It's "error in diffusion" dithering at 72% with manual tuning and tweaking... :P | 11:25 |
| infinity | sladen: The wiki seems wrong. The source doesn't actually reference palette location 8 at all. | 11:26 |
| === mxpxpod_ [n=BryanFor@wuw-ojr3gmca.dybb.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| omeg | infinity, would it be easy for you to fix? I can't seem to be able to easily alter palette locations in Photoshop. | 11:27 |
| omeg | Maybe if I first save it with the pixels lined up in order at the top-left of the image... | 11:27 |
| omeg | Nope, can't fool it. | 11:27 |
| omeg | Ah, looks like it always sorts the palette depending on how often a color is used (black is always first, white last). | 11:28 |
| sladen | can't you just copy and paste the the #NNNNNN colour values into each location | 11:28 |
| omeg | Or maybe that's just luminance. | 11:28 |
| sladen | omeg: grab a copy of the GIMP and you should be able to fix it up fairly easily | 11:28 |
| omeg | It seems not. | 11:28 |
| sladen | omeg: it's on the LiveCD if you're using Windows | 11:28 |
| omeg | I guess I could do that if it's necessary. Depends on if infinity is able to do it easily himself, that could save some time (and him some sleep) :) | 11:29 |
| infinity | omeg: I can do it here. | 11:29 |
| infinity | omeg: The GIMP for Win32 works well enough, though. | 11:30 |
| omeg | http://omega.avalanchestudios.net/personal/dropbox/usplash/new/newsuggestion_0_8_SCALED_BAR.png <-- do you think these colors are better? (refresh) | 11:30 |
| infinity | omeg: And if you're going to do versions for the derivatives, would be nice for you to mangle them yourself. | 11:30 |
| infinity | omeg: That looks less offensive, yeah. | 11:30 |
| omeg | Hmm, yeah, you're right. It would be nice if you could do this one, though. It's 23:30 here in the Netherlands. | 11:30 |
| infinity | omeg: Bah, it's 7:30am in Australia, and I haven't slept yet. :) | 11:31 |
| omeg | :) | 11:31 |
| sladen | omeg: looks better. what about with the most saturated orange in the palette | 11:31 |
| omeg | Okay, you win. | 11:31 |
| sladen | omeg: eg, the one just below the half-way point in the logo | 11:31 |
| infinity | omeg: Try with colour #9 for "fail" | 11:31 |
| infinity | (Assuming Photoshop shows the palette 0-indexed... | 11:32 |
| infinity | #ff9e4d | 11:32 |
| infinity | That one. | 11:32 |
| omeg | Trying. | 11:32 |
| omeg | http://omega.avalanchestudios.net/personal/dropbox/usplash/new/newsuggestion_0_8_SCALED_BAR_ALT.png | 11:33 |
| infinity | Lovely. | 11:33 |
| omeg | Yeah, that does look more "correct" than the white one. | 11:33 |
| omeg | Less threatening, though, but I don't think it should necessarily be threatening. :) | 11:33 |
| infinity | It sticks out enough to take notice. | 11:34 |
| infinity | It doesn't need to hit you over the head. | 11:34 |
| omeg | Definitely looks better than my initial choice of colors. | 11:34 |
| infinity | If I need a break from heavy thinking later today, I'll reindex and upload this, I think. | 11:34 |
| omeg | Yeah, if you have a palette-fixed version, I guess you could just edit the wiki page. Maybe you should leave a note in the "commentary" field saying that you sorted the palette, and that thus other propositions in my folder aren't palette-fixed yet. | 11:35 |
| sladen | omeg: btw, have you tried putting a 1-pixel border around the progress bar? | 11:36 |
| sladen | omeg: to something to create a similar 'glow' effect | 11:38 |
| infinity | Given that the progress bar location is defined in the code, not in the image, he'd have a tough time doing that. :) | 11:38 |
| sladen | infinity: nope. the progress-bar location is fixed in the code (for the time being), so it's easy just to paint around where the progress bar is going to be drawn | 11:40 |
| sladen | (and if the location isn't correct in that image, it can grabbed from one of the vmware screenshots and pasted over | 11:40 |
| infinity | Oh, true, it is fixed, just meant that without looking at the code, he wouldn't know where. | 11:41 |
| omeg | Yeah, I thought that it would be defined in the code. | 11:41 |
| infinity | Anyhow, easy enough to test how it would look. | 11:41 |
| infinity | I, personally, think the flat progress bar looks good. | 11:41 |
| infinity | I suspect a border will make it too busy. | 11:41 |
| sladen | omeg: I tried grabbing one of the two 'shadow' colours and drawing a 1 pixel bar, is 'softens' | 11:41 |
| omeg | I think it looks okay. I'd rather have something more graphical. As it is right now, though, the emphasis lies on the logo, which is okay. The bar serves to accompany the text rather than the logo, and it looks just as plain as the text. | 11:42 |
| sladen | it softens it slightly | 11:42 |
| omeg | sladen: are you sure that where I placed the bar, it will actually be placed in the code? | 11:42 |
| sladen | omeg: yup okay. Thanks for all your hard work on those images btw! | 11:42 |

| omeg | Ah, looks like mine was in the right position anyway. I used an osdir screenshot to get the position, so I guess they too used a direct screendump. | 11:46 |
| omeg | Hmm | 11:46 |

| sladen | btw, are the progress bar colours staying chocolate, or are you going to do those in dapper-orange to? | 11:48 |

| infinity | The background of the progress bar is nice in the dark colour. | 11:49 |

| sladen | what about index #13 for the progress hilight (ffa75a) | 11:52 |
| omeg | Would do almost just as well as ff9e4d. | 11:53 |
| omeg | Would you like me to change it to ffa75a? | 11:53 |
