mhbI've made a wiki page about one of my points in the meeting agenda. It's not so short, so you might want to read it before the meeting. Here it is: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MartinB%c3%b6hm/Meetings/NewWidgetStyle . A link to it is on Kubuntu/Meetings btw.03:44
=== Jucato thinks Polyester or QtCurve looks well with Crystal
mhbJucato: um ... Crystal Window Decorations? Icon theme?03:46
Jucatoer Crystal windeco sorry03:46
=== Jucato doesn't like the polyester windeco that much... but that's just him...
mhbJucato: that's fine, if you can express your opinion in a constructive way,03:48
Jucatoheh :)03:49
mhbJucato: Polyester is just my personal favourite, but as I stated on the page, that is to be discussed.03:49
Jucatook. haven't read the whole page yet. just wanted to get that opinion of mine in :)03:49
mhbJucato: do you think the rationale is wrong?03:50
Jucatohm.. I'll read it03:50
Jucatomhb, doesn't Kubuntu also use plastik by default?03:52
mhbJucato: hmm ... I think last time I talked to Kenneth he said Lipstik's the one ... but if you know those two you know they are practically the same03:54
Jucatoyeah03:54
Jucatomhb: /usr/share/kubuntu-default-settings/kde-profile/default/share/config/kdeglobals "widgetStyle=plastik"03:57
mhbJucato: ah04:00
mhbJucato: you are right04:00
Jucatoalthough, I have a bit of a problem trusting everything in k-d-s... I observe that the .kcsrc file in k-d-s doesn't match the on being used actually in Edgy...04:01
mhbJucato: what do you think about the rationale and the idea of changing the widget style to match the window decorations, kicker etc. ?04:02
mhbJucato: not about my suggestion, but the idea in general04:03
Jucatoimho it's pretty reasonable04:03
Jucatoi'm looking into the issues right now04:05
mhbJucato: one of them was already fixed04:06
=== Hobbsee [n=Hobbsee@ubuntu/member/hobbsee] has joined #kubuntu-devel
Jucatowhich one?04:07
JucatoHobbsee!!!04:07
mhbHobbsee's the sign I should really go to sleep :o)04:07
mhbJucato: the K menu one04:08
Jucatoaw..04:08
=== nixternal builds polyester for edgy to look at
Jucatoah how was it fixed?04:08
nixternalit looks good, and i think i used to use this in the apst04:08
Jucatonixternal: builds?04:08
nixternala 1.0 edgy build so i can install it :)04:08
Jucatoaaah04:08
HobbseeJucato!!!04:08
Hobbseemhb: hahaha, nah04:08
Hobbseewhat's the time there?04:08

Hobbseethat versoin?04:09
nixternalthats what it is now yes04:09
nixternalthe latest is 1.0 on kde-look (for almost a month now)04:09
nixternalmhb: removing the gray rectangle on kmenu, is that an art thing?04:10
mhbnixternal: it's a code thing, but it can be done04:11
nixternalahh04:11
Jucatoremoving the grey rectangle? there's an option to turn it off in polyester04:11
mhbnixternal: well then it's even easier :o)04:11
JucatoI think turning off the menu stripe by default would make it more consistent...04:12
nixternali use a transparent kmenu, so it isn't all that noticeable04:12
mhbJucato: You may be right.04:14
mhbJucato: that can be easily done :o) the first part is to decide if we will change the widget style.04:14
mhbat all04:14
Jucatoa change would be good... and Crystal windeco + Plastik doesn't really look good, imho04:15
nixternalwhat do i need to do in order to get the theme to apply to ff?04:15
Jucatonixternal: GTK+ Styles and Fonts04:15
Hobbseenixternal: NEAT!!!04:15

Jucatohi manchicken!04:17
manchickenw00t!04:17
manchickenSo I have 3 things on my agenda this evening.04:18
Hobbseemanchicken!!!04:18
Hobbseewhat are they?04:18
manchicken1) Beer, 2) Hacking a bit, 3) Putting some of this jigsaw puzzle together.04:18
=== Hobbsee has one
manchickenI'm getting pissed off with this warm winter weather.04:18
Hobbseehehe04:18
manchickenThe bugs are going to be insane.04:19
nixternalsays i have it already installed yet the theme doesn't apply to the ff menus04:20
mhbnixternal: you mean the grey stripe?04:21
Hobbseemanchicken: which bugs?04:21
nixternalnah, the glass looking selectors04:22
manchickenHobbsee: The ones that the cold winter was supposed to kill ^_^04:22
Hobbseeah04:22
Jucatonixternal: in GTK+ Styles and Fonts, did you set it to use your KDE style?04:22
nixternalshh04:23
nixternal;p04:23
Jucato:)04:23
nixternalit is already set04:23
nixternalargh04:24
Jucatohm.. restart firefox?04:24
nixternalyup04:24
Jucatohm.. strange...04:25
nixternali just noticed that none fo the styles apply to ff04:25
nixternalkeramik has some cool glassy/glossy menu highlights04:26
=== Hobbsee updates her pbuilder
Jucatotoo glossy, imho04:26
Jucatoand that's coming from someone who likes glossy :)04:26
nixternalthe rest of theme is yes04:26
nixternalbut the menu highlights take the cake04:26
Jucatowell, there's one thing I don't like about keramik's widget style04:27
=== hunger_ [n=tobias@p54A73879.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #kubuntu-devel
Jucatohow it applies the color to window backgrounds04:27
=== Hobbsee wants a screenshot
nixternalhttp://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=1396904:27
nixternalthats kinda sharp looking04:27
Hobbseesomeone tell me what time i'm working tonight, please...04:28
JucatoKeramik takes the Button's color for the Window background...04:28
nixternalexcept for those stupid vista buttons04:28
nixternalHobbsee: i said you can have the day off :)04:28
Hobbseenice....ish04:28
mhbnixternal: that's what we use now, isn't it? :o)04:28
Hobbseenixternal: nah, the other lady there will not be pleased04:28
Hobbseemhb: we set the defaults :P04:29
nixternalmhb: damn it is04:29
nixternalbut that looks cooler :)04:29
=== Jucato couldn't see the screenshot because of the slow internet connection...
mhbnixternal: really?04:30
=== jack_wyt_ [n=jack@61.149.5.38] has joined #kubuntu-devel
Jucatowhich looks cooler? keramik?04:30
mhbnixternal: in what way?04:30
Hobbseepolyester beats them all :P04:30
Hobbseemind you, the transparency/translucency looks kinda nice04:30
nixternaljust that entire glass/see through looked neat. maybe it is just that guys setup though04:31
Jucatoyes, polyester is a very nice alternative and looks well with Crystal windeco04:31
mhbnixternal: if you want transparency, either use Beryl or wait for kwin4 :o)04:31
nixternalqt-curve!04:31
nixternalhaha04:31
Jucatothat's another good alternative nixternal :)04:31
nixternalmhb: i would rather jump off the golden gate bridge into a boat of razor blades than use beryl04:31
Hobbseenixternal: did you see the meeting time?04:31
JucatoI was actually suggesting that too04:32
nixternalHobbsee: i believe i did, i think i posted the new date and time to the fridge as well04:32
Jucatoso that's the final date/time?04:32
Hobbseenixternal: cool04:32
HobbseeJucato: havent read my logs of last night yet, but i'm hoping so04:32
mhbHobbsee: the "polyester beats them all" was irony or not?04:33
Hobbseedunno.  i like polyester :)04:33
=== Jucato likes polyester and qtcurve almost equally
mhbHobbsee: you read the wiki page I made?04:33
Hobbseemhb: probably not.  do i have the address?04:34
Jucatotwo advantages of qtcurve, for me, are: extremely customizable (we can ship/make our own "theme" for it, just like we do in Crystal) and there's a QtCurve for GTK+04:34
Hobbseesomeone should merge keep, btw04:34
mhbHobbsee: yes, either in the logs or on Kubuntu/Meetings page .... https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MartinB%c3%b6hm/Meetings/NewWidgetStyle04:35
=== mhb should go to bed. Really.
=== Jucato forgot where he got his qtcurve-kde3 and qtcurve-gtk2 debs from...
Hobbseesomeone check that kwwii will be around for the meeting, if i dont, please04:36
mhbgood night all04:36
JucatoI'll ask him when I see him :)04:36
Jucatonight mhb!04:36
mhbHobbsee: I can ask him too, after all he's in the same timezone.04:36
Hobbseemhb: cool :)04:37

Hobbsee:)04:41
=== Jucato wonders why no one has packaged qtcurve...
Hobbsee(to feisty)04:41
Hobbseei think it's on REVU04:41
=== Hobbsee recalled that no one particularly liked it
Jucatoreally?04:41
JucatoI find it to be the most KDE-like (i.e., so very customizable) style...04:42
=== jack_wyt_ [n=jack@61.149.5.38] has joined #kubuntu-devel
Jucatoand it also has the added advantage of having a GTK+ version, which makes it consistent across apps...04:42
HobbseeJucato: true04:42
HobbseeJucato: i seem to recall that the argument was "we dont want to look like gnome"04:42
Jucatoah because it's somewhat like bluecurve?04:43
=== Jucato uses a modified Glass QtCurve theme
manchickenEh, I don't care about looking like gnome.  I wish that apps were more cross DE friendly..04:43
Jucatoer modified Shiny Glass... doesn't look like GNOME at all04:43
mhbJucato: well if it's similar to a GNOME-like theme it will not make it as default04:43
Jucatomhb: the thing is, QtCurve comes with so many schemes04:44
mhbI still believe in the "no revolution" concept I stated on that wiki page04:44
Jucatowell, yeah, if you put it that way...04:44
Jucato"no revolution" would mean it's more likely to get accepted...04:45
=== Hobbsee kicks soyuz
=== Hobbsee remembers sethk packaging polyester originally :P
mhbJucato: do me a screenshot and we can discuss it04:45
mhbs/do/make04:46
Jucatono, you should sleep first mhb :)04:46
mhbright04:46
Jucatolet's discuss when you awaken :)04:46
=== Jucato uploads the screenshot anyway
nixternalhmm. i restarted x and that took care of all of the menus, except for ff04:47
nixternalJucato: i just got done going through all of the qtcurve themes04:47
nixternalthere are 3 good themes04:47
Jucatostrange... you shouldn't have to restart X...04:47
n8k99/sees Hobbsee carrying her stick and hides04:47
nixternalclear, inverted, and dull glass all stand out nicely04:47
Jucatoshiny glass, with a couple of modifications, can look like a shinier polyester04:47

Jucatohttp://jucato.org/stuff/firefox-qtcurve.png04:51
nixternalhttp://www.nixternal.com/screeny.png04:52
nixternal^^ inverted qtcurve theme04:52
Jucatoheh yeah the inverted glass also looks nice04:52
Jucatobut it doesn't look consistent with Crystal windeco, imho...04:52
nixternalno it doesn't, but looks good with the default kde theme whatever that is04:53
nixternalplastik04:53
Jucatodefault KDE windeco?04:53
Jucatoyeah, KDE default uses Plastik style and windeco04:53
Jucatoooh irssi...04:53
nixternalwhat about irssi?04:54
Jucatopretty pretty04:54
nixternaloh, the setup i use?04:54
Jucatohow did you get a nick list column?!?! :O04:54
nixternalnicklist.pl and screen within a screen04:55
Jucatooh04:55
JucatoI thought it was built in04:55
nixternalnah, it is actually 2 screens running in 1 screen session04:55
Jucato:)04:55
=== Jucato contemplates on lunch...
nixternalplastik actually looks pretty nice04:56
Jucatoit's plain, simple, and beatiful in simplicity...04:56
Jucatoit's also old and plain :P04:57
nixternalya, i enjoy simplicity04:57
Jucatoand doesn't look well w/ crystal :)04:57
nixternali did a simpli theme for kde in the mid 90's that was sharp04:57
nixternalthat was simplistic04:57
Hobbseeoh yeah, i was going to install the new polyester...04:57
Jucatofrom simplicity to complexity: plastik > lipstik > polyester > qtcurve04:57
nixternalrsi breaktime!04:58
=== Hobbsee wonders about restarting X now

mhbhttps://wiki.kubuntu.org/AdeptUsability this one?08:30

manchickenI wasn't sure if it was named similar to the norton people or the touchpad people _^^08:33
manchickenSo easy to confuse the two.08:33
Riddellit's not part of synaptic08:33
Riddellsynaptic has it's own one, but it calls the nicer ubuntu one if it's available instead08:34
manchickenWe should probably have some notes next to these items if we actually have plans for implementation on them.08:34
manchickenOh, so you're just talking about porting that proggy from GTK to Qt?08:35
Riddellmanchicken: yes08:36
Riddellthen small patch to adept to make it do the same as synaptic, and use the nicer editor if it's available08:37
Riddellmanchicken: take a look at kubuntu-feisty-adept-plan or whatever it's called to see similar ideas08:37
Riddellmanchicken: we also have a branch of adept in lauchpad.net/products/adept now that you can branch from08:38

LureRiddell: what is your concern? It is quite lite on cpu...08:50
LureRiddell: if you do not agree, feel free to change the state in wiki08:51
RiddellLure: it means the computer will never be idle, that's not good on battery life08:51
LureRiddell: right, but since we do not have tickless kernel it is not idle anyway ;-)08:51

manchickenAlthough it'd be nice if there was a way to present that stuff in a GUI.08:55
Luremanchicken: it is ICE_AUTHORITY issue08:55

manchickenOh, really?08:55
manchickenI didn't think it'd be that deep.  Though I suppose I never really looked into it.08:56
manchickenI don't really install non-free packages, so I never really see it.08:56
mhbLure: battery life is quite important for me08:56

elcucoanyway, the livecd needs to have hebrew suport. how can i help with this09:31
Riddellelcuco: there's no space on the CD for more languages09:33
Riddellelcuco: isn't it an installed system you are having the problem with?09:33
elcucoon my system it is (i guess). i have kde-i18n-he. this should be enough for kde09:33
manchickenMaybe we should take off one of the proprietary packages to make room ;)09:34
manchickenheh09:34
elcucomanchicken: :)09:34
Riddellelcuco: it needs language-pack-kde-he-base09:36

=== gnomefreak [n=gnomefre@ubuntu/member/gnomefreak] has joined #kubuntu-devel
elcucoRiddell: about kdesktop beein ltr, it's wierd. since kapplication reversed the layout according to some string defined in kdelibs.po. however, kde is translated (i am quite sure as I see the hebrew UI).10:09
elcucothis might be a problem with caching, or some ugly patch done to kdebase.10:09
Riddellelcuco: try it with a new user maybe10:14
Riddellelcuco: does kicker and konqueror et al all go reversed?10:15
elcucook, adduser or is there a cool funky kubuntu gui?10:15
elcucoRiddell: all the applications are hebrew translated and RTL, the only problem is kdesktop, which is LTR10:15

Riddellelcuco: adduser is easiest if you are a command line user10:16
elcucoi hate cli10:17
Riddellah well, use system settings then10:19
elcucoi think i understand what happens... now wht10:21
elcucoit looks like kdesktop cannot load kdelibs.po. i see some basic strings in english.10:21
elcuconow, i need to understand how can i "strace" kdesktop....10:22
elcucomv kdesktop kdekstop.bin && echo "strace -f -o /tmp/1.txt" > kdesktop && chmod +x kdekstop10:25
Riddellyou can just killall kdesktop and start it again from the command line10:25
elcucothat could work10:26
manchickenRiddell: Are you just wanting software-properties/10:26
Riddellmanchicken: nope10:26
Riddellmanchicken: oh, yes10:26
Riddellsorry, mis-read you10:26
Riddellmanchicken: wanting it ported to qt4?  yes10:26
manchickenSo you want me to rip software-properties out of update-manager?10:26
Riddellmanchicken: no, we'll let mvo do that later10:26
Riddelljust keep it all in the same tree for now10:27
manchickenRighto.10:27

elcucook, that was fun...10:33
elcucoanyway, it seems kdesktop does not load kdelibs.po at all. i tested also kdialog and that one does.10:33
elcucoi assume there is something wrong in kdesktop in kubuntu10:34
manchickenGrumble...10:36
manchickenupdate-manager doesn't seem to have cdbs-edit-patch working....10:36
manchickenStops with... make: *** No rule to make target `apply-patches'.  Stop.10:37
Riddellapt-get build-dep update-manager?10:38
manchickenNothing there.10:39
manchickenI type cdbs-edit-patch kubuntu_qtport_pass0 and it goes, and finally dies on that error I pasted.10:40
Riddelldon't edit a patch10:41
Riddellbranch the bzr archive and work from that10:42

Luremanchicken: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BzrMaintainedPackages might help11:00
manchickenSo I'm guessing I should go off of the main branch?11:05
manchickenSo I would bzr branch http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-dev/update-manager/main ./ then?11:06
manchickenor would I bzr branch http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-dev/update-manager/main http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-dev/update-manager/qtport11:06
manchicken(I don't know why we're not just using svn...)11:07
manchickenOkay, how do you build a package that you gram from bzr?  Just dpkg-buildpackage?11:15
