[01:36] <jdong> is there a way to check if the screen is locked
[01:37] <jdong> either through shell or python?
[01:37] <jdong> or screensaver is active
[01:38] <Lathiat> gnome-screensaver-command -q
[01:38] <Lathiat> jdong:
[01:39] <jdong> does that work in KDE?
[01:39] <Lathiat> no
[01:39] <jdong> oh
[01:39] <jdong> any kde equivalent?
[01:39] <Lathiat> not sure
[01:39] <jdong> I'd assume it'd be through dcop?
[01:39] <Lathiat> theres probably a DCOP interface
[01:39] <Lathiat> :)
[01:39] <jdong> gee
[01:39] <jdong> where's dcop.google.com?
[01:39] <Lathiat> heh
[01:40] <Jucato> kdcop?
[01:44] <jdong> dcop kdesktop KScreensaverIface isBlanked
[01:44] <jdong> perfect
[01:46] <Jucato> :)
[02:00] <Jucato> Hobbsee!!
[02:02] <Jucato> heh :)
[02:05] <Hobbsee_> grrr.
[02:06] <Jucato> O.o
[02:06] <Hobbsee> right.
[02:07] <Jucato> :)
[02:25] <ryanakca> anybody know where I could get the source of some python KDE apps? I think some of the ones that were coded for kubuntu are pyqt...
[02:28] <Hobbsee> ryanakca: guidance-power-manager is in pyqt
[02:28] <ryanakca> kk...
[02:29] <Hobbsee> i think
[02:29] <Hobbsee> pretty sure it is
[02:29] <ryanakca> yeah, it is, I think
[02:30] <Hobbsee> smart
[02:34] <ryanakca> hmm... I get the "import" stuff... but after that... looks like giberrish... "self._initBrightness()" doesn't tell me anything...
[02:34] <robotgeek> ryanakca: classes :)
[02:34] <Hobbsee> ryanakca: what are you reading?
[02:34] <ryanakca> http://diveintopython.org/power_of_introspection/index.html
[02:35] <robotgeek> a byte of python is also a good read, i think
[02:35] <Hobbsee> ah yes...
[02:35] <ryanakca> and it's not very good... http://www.hetland.org/python/instant-hacking.php   was better than it is
[02:35] <Hobbsee> that's what i've read part of
[02:35] <ryanakca> O'Reilly usually has good books :)
[02:36] <ryanakca> my first program... even though it's quite simple, compared to some of the stuff I'm looking at :D
[02:38] <ryanakca> robotgeek: it is...
[02:38] <robotgeek> ryanakca: you should probably make that a function
[02:38] <ryanakca> make what?
[02:38] <robotgeek> sec
[02:39] <Hobbsee> way cool
[02:40] <ryanakca> cout/cin... C++'s console out... and in?
[02:40] <ryanakca> or something else?
[02:41] <Hobbsee> yes
[02:42] <ryanakca> kk.. *finds C++ too confusing at the moment* that's why I settled with python :D
[02:42] <robotgeek> ryanakca: ah, i see that you have put the new teritiary operator to good use
[02:42] <ryanakca> I'll probably look at C++ again sometime down the road :)
[02:42] <ryanakca> teritary operator?
[02:42] <ryanakca> that last input for running... the y/n ?
[02:43] <robotgeek> yes
[02:43] <robotgeek> if i am getting that correctly :)
[02:43] <robotgeek> guessing ,err
[02:43] <ryanakca> lol
[02:44] <Hobbsee> hehe
[02:45] <Hobbsee> awesome!
[02:45] <Hobbsee> http://www.smh.com.au/news/wireless--broadband/nsw-to-roll-out-free-wifi-service/2006/11/29/1164476252715.html
[02:47] <robotgeek> http://rafb.net/paste/results/q9d6z337.html ryanakca
[02:48] <ryanakca> and substitute "blah" with my code?
[02:48] <robotgeek> ryanakca: yeah, i am still on python 2.4 :)
[02:48] <ryanakca> lol
[02:49] <robotgeek> ryanakca: if you do it this way, you can have a cheap unit test thing
[02:49] <ryanakca> sudo apt-get install python2.5
[02:49] <ryanakca> unit test thing... that's for...
[02:50] <ryanakca> only runs when __name__ = __main__
[02:50] <ryanakca> but the point of that is...
[02:50] <robotgeek> ryanakca: well, you can call this from another fucntion from file
[02:50] <robotgeek> ryanakca: like "from myfile import vareac"
[02:51] <ryanakca> ah, sweet :)
[02:52] <ryanakca> g'night :)
[02:52] <robotgeek> night ryanakca
[05:59] <freeflying> imbrandon: ping
[08:51] <nixternal> I have started the release pages for the Kubuntu 7.04 releases. Anything new and exciting to put, please highlight me with the information - try to provide links if at all possible. Thanks everyone!

[11:30] <Jucato> hi Hobbsee!
[11:30] <Hobbsee> Jucato!!!
[11:30] <Jucato> :)
[11:30] <Jucato> bug 70991, known issue?
[11:30] <Ubugtu> Malone bug 70991 in kdeartwork "Disabling energy saving of monitor; changes the normal screensaver to a e.g. blank screen or a screen with an X" [Undecided,Unconfirmed]  http://launchpad.net/bugs/70991
[11:31] <Jucato> ey there goes your clone! :)
[11:31] <Jucato> hi Hobbsee_
[11:31] <Hobbsee> hehe
[11:31] <Jucato> lol :)
[11:31] <Jucato> O.o
[11:32] <Hobbsee> interesting.....
[11:32] <Jucato> ah no more
[11:33] <Hobbsee> oh is *that* my ip today?  weird ip
[11:33] <Jucato> :)
[03:57] <DaSkreech> nixternal: Herd1?
[03:57] <DaSkreech> Seriously?
[03:57] <Hobbsee> herd 1 freeze is on now, yes
[03:58] <Jucato> O.o
[03:58] <Hobbsee> for main
[03:59] <Jucato> oh
[03:59] <Jucato> for a moment there, I just read Herd as Hurd :P
[03:59] <Hobbsee> heh
[04:03] <DaSkreech> Ha ha :)
[04:03] <DaSkreech> That would have been an uncomfortable moment :)
[04:13] <Jucato> QUESTION: is Hobbsee really the Queen of the Universe (QOTU)
[04:14] <Hobbsee> hehe
[04:14] <Jucato> I just put that question in queue :)
[04:14] <crimsun> err, well, there's no King of the Universe, so no...
[04:14] <Jucato> hehe :)
[04:14] <Jucato> if she were queen, instead of a scepter, she'd have her long pointy stick of doom :)
[04:18] <crimsun> item #1: modify kubuntu-desktop postinst to remove konqueror and install gconf
[04:19] <Hobbsee> hah
[04:19] <Hobbsee> crimsun: but why would we want to install windows registry?
[04:22] <DaSkreech> Which is one level of hell more powerful than Mozilla registry
[04:41] <mhb> good afternoon
[04:43] <DaSkreech> Good noon
[04:43] <Jucato> good evening (almost midnight)! :)
[05:06] <nixternal> ok, what is new for Herd 1?
[05:07] <mhb> that is the question
[05:09] <Jucato> I really need new glasses.. I keep on seeing that as Hurd 1...
[05:12] <mhb> only 2 features implemented according to https://blueprints.launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/feisty
[05:14] <Jucato> hm... is there any plan to let mountconfig in kde-guidance support the libata-for-all-disks spec?
[07:00] <Jucato> is this a good "solution" to building feisty packages on edgy? (or edgy on dapper) http://pupeno.com/blog-en/unstable-packages-on-ubuntu/
[07:42] <nixternal> on the surface, is there anything new for herd 1? right now I have the kernel I am going to write up
[09:39] <mhb> nixternal: how's the patch for bug 73384 ? I thought you generated it, didn't you?
[09:39] <Ubugtu> Malone bug 73384 in kubuntu-docs "Localized Kubuntu documents missing" [High,Confirmed]  http://launchpad.net/bugs/73384
[09:46] <jdong> imbrandon: had chance to look at my ktorrent patches yet?
[09:54] <ryanakca> Riddell: ping
[10:04] <nixternal> mhb: string freeze doesn't allow me to do so..i have to wait for Riddell to do so
[10:12] <mhb> nixternal: oh. Ok then.
[10:12] <mhb> what about feisty docs?
[10:12] <nixternal> we have a long time until those are even ready for translations
[10:12] <mhb> are they present yet, even though they will be modified heavily?
[10:12] <mhb> oh
[10:13] <nixternal> we are workign on the topic based portions now
[10:13] <mhb> OK, we should not forget about that (again :o)
[10:13] <mhb> how can one check the progress?
[10:14] <nixternal> progress of the documentation itself or of translations?
[10:14] <nixternal> translations won't begin on documentation until the beginning of March 07
[10:14] <mhb> documentation itself, translation is clear
[10:14] <mhb> I know
[10:15] <nixternal> you can follow via the svn repo possibly...if we can get the status="review" type stuff on the svn server, then you will be able to follow via reports
[10:15] <nixternal> otherwise, you follow the doc commit logs
[10:16] <mhb> ok
[10:17] <ryanakca> nixternal: was it you who was writing that kubuntu book along with a couple of other people?
[10:18] <nixternal> which kubuntu book? i know there are a lot of "supposed" ones in the making
[10:18] <nixternal> but i haven't seen much...supposed to be working on the "Switching to Kubuntu from Windows" stuff
[10:20] <ryanakca> yeah, I think that's the one...
[10:20] <ryanakca> whoever it was had given me a link for docbook and xml
[10:20] <nixternal> could have been me
[10:20] <ryanakca> oh, and should I clear the agenda? seeing that all the topics are "2006-10-05 17:52:09" (last meeting)
[10:20] <nixternal> my brain is shot right now...i am somewhat done with homework for tonights class..and i had to write a stupid script to read a silly textbase
[10:21] <nixternal> meetings ey...haven't been in one in a while
[10:21] <nixternal> how is that openweek stuff going?
[10:21] <mhb> there hasn't been one in a while
[10:21] <mhb> (UDS yes, but not an IRC one)
[10:25] <mhb> I agree, it's all discussed
[10:25] <mhb> (except for my membership application, oh boy)
[10:26] <ryanakca> lol
[10:26] <ryanakca> I was just looking at that
[10:26] <ryanakca> btw, is your site supposed to display the same text on all 3 pages?
[10:28] <mhb> ryanakca: I'm surprised somebody actually looked at it :o)
[10:28] <mhb> ryanakca: no, I'll fix that
[10:28] <mhb> ryanakca: forgot to translate the other 2
[10:29] <mhb> sorry .o)
[10:52] <ryanakca> mhb: lol
[10:59] <jdong> any workarounds for uic trying to open network sockets in pbuilders?
[10:59] <jdong> creating ./plugins/logviewer/logprefwidgetbase.h
[10:59] <jdong> Session management error: Could not open network socket
[10:59] <jdong> (and so on)
[11:00] <jdong> I'd really like my builds not to sleep for 10 seconds after each command :D
[11:04] <ryanakca> hmm... no clue...
[11:08] <ryanakca> robotgeek: ping
[11:31] <gnomefreak> anyone know if the koffice 1.6.1 repos are back up?
