Viper550Guess what, you've got some upstaging to do artwork wise now...12:18
Viper550http://people.redhat.com/dfong/fc6graphics/12:19
kwwii_dude, I do not mean to be rude, but what is the point?12:22
Viper550FC6's artwork is just plain beautiful12:22
kwwii_I mean, I am a kubunu person, so I really don't care either way12:22
kwwii_but  what is the point of coming here to say that?12:23
Viper550(well, Fedora uses most of the same artwork cross-desktop anyway) My point, here's some inspiration so we can do even better for Edgy12:23
kwwii_you say it is your prefered distro, so use it12:23
=== kwwii_ doesn't get it
Viper550I know, I do use it, but I used to use Ubuntu and when I joined the team I used Ubuntu12:24
Viper550I was showing you what Fedora was up to, we did bring up the Echo icons on the list before, so it's not like we haven't mentioned Fedora before12:24
Viper550But then, we all also kinda disliked the bubbles look too.12:25

Kamionkwwii: in case you didn't notice, usplash 0.4-23 (uploaded yesterday) fixes most problems on powerpc; usplash 0.4-24 (which I'm about to upload) fixes broken progress bar display on powerpc05:01
kwwiiKamion: for some reason usplash fails on my machine because it says it cannot find the screen size05:03
Kamionkwwii: yes, that's what should be fixed in -2305:03
kwwiihehe, cool!05:03
Kamionif you're using -23, we can talk further :)05:03
kwwiiwell, I am using it (I just tested it about three hours ago)05:04
Kamionoh, and it still says it can't find the screen size?05:04
kwwiiyepp, it did it at 1024x768 on dapper05:04
kwwiithe dekstop, I mean, although it can do more05:04
kwwiiso I think it is just a funky computer (it is an eMac)05:05
Kamionthat shouldn't be a problem05:05
Kamionwhat's the exact error message?05:06
kwwiicannot find screen size (or there abouts)05:06
KamionI need the exact message so I can grep for it, if you can05:07
kwwiiwell, I will reboot and tell you, one second :-)05:07
Kamionthanks05:07
kwwiihey, thanks go to you :-)05:07

Kamionkwwii_: OK, it's a Radeon, and there aren't that many places where radeon's fb_check_var can fail05:28
KamionI suspect I'm just failing to initialise something or other05:28
kwwii_well, whenever you need any info or testing, just ask. I'd be happy to help if it gets this thing running :-)05:29
Kamionkwwii_: will do ...05:31
kwwii_[17:33]  <Tonio_> kwwii_: sudo usplash works here, but fails at boot. Probably due to the resolution detection I assume05:37
kwwii_I am not alone05:38
Kamionit is not necessarily the same problem05:38
Kamionkwwii_: so does 'sudo usplash -c -x 640 -y 480' work for you from a virtual console? (if it does work, wait 15 seconds or so for it to go away)05:39
kwwii_Kamion: nope, it just says "Screen Init Failed"05:40
Kamionkwwii_: also, if you could put /var/log/Xorg.0.log somewhere, that would be useful05:41
Kamionok, so your problem is not the same as Tonio's05:41
Kamionsorry BTW, if you'd rather this be somewhere other than #ubuntu-artwork, no problem, we can take it to #ubuntu-devel or /query05:41
kwwii_sorry, I was making schnitzel's for dinner06:05

=== Nafallo [n=nafallo@ubuntu/member/nafallo] has joined #ubuntu-artwork
Kamionkwwii_: you'll need to fix usplash.conf, since you have no 640x480 theme in kubuntu-artwork-usplash06:28
Kamionxres=1024 and yres=768 should do, and you might find that that will work ...06:28
Kamiontry 'sudo usplash -c -x 1024 -y 768' from a console to test06:28
kwwii_Kamion: rocking! it works06:29
Nafallojust a tip: the preview text on the wallpaper is behind the lower panel :-P06:30
Kamionkwwii_: woo. still need to fix the underlying bug but at least that's you sorted06:30
kwwii_hehe :-) thanks, I appreciate it06:31
KamionI'm going to tweak usplash to exit a bit more clearly if there's no theme matching the specified resolution06:31
kwwii_it is really helpfull to be able to test it06:31
Kamionyeah, that's why it got paid developer time :)06:32

Viper550kwwii: Just as a re-bringup, what was your opinion about the glossy panel bg I made?11:05
kwwiiViper550: I like it11:06
kwwiiViper550: the problem is that the widgets look different11:06
Viper550Widgets? what widgets?11:06
kwwiiViper550: if we used a different widget style it would fit11:06
Viper550The widgets in the style? Yeah...we should try something more glossy11:06
Viper550There are 2 great gloss themes: QtCurve and Polyester11:07
kwwiiti would probably fit to QtCurve11:08
Viper550Firstly, QtCurve has tons of options, and we can easily set up a preset for our look. QtCurve can also apply its current settings to GTK apps as well as KDE apps11:09
kwwiiso we could get ubuntu to change too?11:09
kwwiiI seriously doubt it11:09
Viper550No, this means that on Kubuntu, Firefox and other GTK apps would look exactly like KDE11:10
Viper550This has been a complaint by some users that prefer Firefox over Konqueror, they boot it up and see that it has an ugly appearance11:10
Viper550We would still only ship it with Kubuntu, but with this, KDE and GTK applications can finally have consistancy!11:12
kwwiithat is actually a very good point11:12
Viper550It also looks nice too!11:12
kwwiiyou mean that it works well with the Qt gtk engine and also has a firefox theme, I guess11:12
Viper550No, how it works is that there are 2 parts: the KDE style and the GTK engine11:12
Viper550The QtCurve GTK theme reads the color and style information from the QtCurve configuration on KDE11:13
Viper550So, they are still 2 different things, but they work together to apply a consistent look. It even applies the proper KDE icons where needed!11:15
Viper550I'm going to bring this up globally in kubuntu-devel as well too, so help us out!11:16
kwwiiplease do11:17
kwwiinot sure if the infrastructure is there to support that11:17
