Jucatokool! danimo's password patch works perfectly in feisty :)03:17
freeflyingJucato: password patch?03:27
Jucatodisplays dots instead of asterisks when typing in the password03:27
HawkwindWhy would you want dots instead of *'s ?03:27
HawkwindWhat's the purpose03:28
Jucatoasterisks look soo old? :)03:29
Jucatolooks better on the GUI. anyway it only affects KDE styles (plastik, I think). so you don't have to worry :P03:30
HawkwindJucato: I do agree that the dots do look better 03:48
HawkwindI just didn't understand why the patch was done other than just for that very reason03:48
Jucatoactually I think it was also a sort of "proof of concept" that it could be done in Qt 3. danimo previously thought it could only be done in Qt 4 (which he already did for KDE 4 I think)03:49
Jucatonot really sure though03:49

nixternali have been playing with OpenSUSE 10.2 w/ KDE today, and there are a couple of things that are pretty nice which might be cool in Kubuntu07:12
nixternalKickoff isn't one of them after playing with it imho07:12
jdongnixternal: like say an attractive bootsplash?07:12
jdong(just kidding!)07:12
nixternalhaha07:12
jdongnixternal: I too did not like kickoff07:12
nixternalthe bootsplash is a x-mas theme07:12
nixternalthat tripped me out07:12
jdongnixternal: kickoff was clunky to use for me... it definitely didn't make suse easier to use for me07:12
nixternali had penguins in santa hats running across my snow & ice covered grub menu07:12
jdongI did like the sysinfo:/ view though07:12
jdongnixternal: that's an easter egg07:12
nixternalkickoff is smooth for me, just not practical07:13
jdongnixternal: it happens once every n% of grub installcd boots07:13
nixternalthe KHelpCenter owns us hardcore and their My Computer/Konqueror frontpage rocks07:13
jdongnixternal: +1 on the My Computer07:14
jdongnixternal: that is a sweet view07:14
nixternali remember people complaining about Kubuntu print config, theirs is even worse..i had to use http://localhost:631 just to install a smb printer07:14
jdongreally?07:14
jdongYaST didn't do it?07:14
fdovingnixternal: My Computer is the sysinfo:/ kioslave?07:14
jdongfdoving: yes07:14
fdoving.. I have a started package of that somehwere..07:15
nixternalya, YaST sucks for print configuring samba shares07:15
jdongnixternal: hmm, when I used SuSE before Ubuntu I used YaST to do that07:15
nixternaland you can really search application manuals with KHelpCenter, which is a huge plus07:15
jdongnixternal: I know by default they set up CUPS as a client-only07:15
jdongwhich is really strange if you ask me07:15
nixternaljdong: i tried yast for it, but it would come back with a print$ for the queue and it would fail during eveyr test07:16
nixternali like the yast layout a little better than sys settings i think...again imho07:16
nixternalkerry beagle is a champ in suse as well...cool how it works with everything07:17
jdongnixternal: also YaST is significantly faster in 10.2 than when I used it before07:18
jdongthere used to be really noticeable lag launching every applet07:18
nixternalya, it is super fast i noticed07:18
jdongthe entire KDE actually was quite snappy07:18
nixternaloverall it is a pretty responsive system07:18
jdongDT_GNU_HASH is enabled too, IIRC07:18
nixternalnice07:18
jdongyes, it is. In the huge changelog07:18
mhbhave I gone to #opensuse all of the sudden? :o)07:19
jdonglol07:19
jdongone thing that really bothered me07:19
nixternalhehe07:19
jdongwas how hard you had to work to get restricted codecs07:19
nixternalit is good to try other kde distros to see what you can learn07:19
jdongno need to give me an RMS speech07:19
Riddellooh, k3b 1.0 rc 107:19
nixternalrestricted codecs worked from the beginning, they even tell you how to install win32codecs07:19
jdongnixternal: huh? really?07:19
jdongnixternal: I had to go digging around for pacman and other repos07:20
nixternalya, you can enable the non-oss repos on install07:20
jdongnot non-oss07:20
nixternali downloaded and played an mp3 w/o installing anything07:20
jdongthey castrated xine's decoders except for like vorbis and theora07:20
jdongnixternal: that's because realplayer handles mp3's07:20
jdongnixternal: try a xvid video and you'll hit a brick wall07:20
jdongnixternal: you have to go out for 3rd party xine-lib07:21
Riddelljdong: fancy backporting cmake?  (and subversion 1.4 when it's in), KDE developers are asking me for them07:21
nixternali don't even see real player, and it played the mp3 through kaffeine and amarok07:21
jdongRiddell: the backport is already approved but ubuntu-archive is being slow :)07:21
nixternalno wonder i couldn't find libxine-extracodecs07:21
Riddelljdong: there's a new cmake07:21
jdongRiddell: 2.4? or even newer?07:21
jdongnixternal: amarok has been patched to do its playback thru realplayer07:21
Riddelljdong: 2.4.5 (up from 2.4.4)07:21
jdongnixternal: so has most of the other stuff07:21
jdongRiddell: ah ok, will take a look07:21
nixternalahhh07:21
Riddellthanks jdong07:22
mhbRiddell: ubiquity and hwdb python scripts are able to use both KDE & GNOME libs ... is there a python library/class that is able to produce similar DE-independent code? Or how do you do it?07:22
jdongnixternal: but as I said, try any other format ;-)07:22
nixternalm4a didn't work07:22
jdongnixternal: including unencrypted mpeg2 dvd's07:22
jdongnixternal: ha! you make me laugh ;-)07:22
Riddellmhb: no, and the duplicate a lot of code.  hwdb especially is pretty much two implementations of the same thing07:22
jdongnixternal: it takes around 6 3rd party repos to get our equivalent of apt-get install libxine-extracodecs07:22
nixternalso i am noticing now07:22
jdongthat'd be my ONLY complaint about OpenSuse07:22
nixternalwth, it won't play anything but ogg and mp307:22
nixternalhowever, opensuse is not newb friendly if you ask me07:23
Lurenixternal: I cannot believe that you like yast layout more than system settings...07:24
jdongnixternal: read their RestrictedFormats page07:24
jdongnixternal: RMS would be proud07:24
nixternalLure: it has a smaller more concise layout that is topically devided07:24
nixternalit makes it easier finding some things07:24
nixternalSax2 is very limited, but definitely better than previous releases07:24
Lurenixternal: for me it was vice versa... it was just suprising for me when you said it...07:25
nixternalit seems they have restricted alot of stuff with these newer releases, making it difficult to config via a gui07:25
nixternalthen again, the only thing i use system settings for is print config, because the Kubuntu print config is far better than any others i have ever seen, on any os07:25
