Jucatohi manchicken!!!05:45
Jucatohi DaSkreech!05:45
manchickenRiddell: You about?05:51
manchickenThis Qt port is more of a rewrite than a port.  heh05:52
=== Jucato wonders what it is about...
manchickenI'm working on this software-properties proggy.05:55
Jucatooh the one for Adept?05:55
manchickenYeah.05:55
=== Jucato declares manchicken as his Adept hero :)
Jucatomanchicken: have you gotten in contact with mornfall?05:55
manchickenNaw.05:55
Jucatooh... ok :)05:55
JucatoI think he uploaded some stuff to KDE SVN a few days/weeks ago... not really sure exactly when05:56
manchickenRiddell said he wanted to use the software-properties proggie in update-manager for the sources editor.05:57
manchickenIt's written in Python with GTK/Glade.05:58
manchickenSo naturally we want to port it to Qt.05:58
Jucatooh. I thought that it was a pure GTK+ app.05:58
Jucatogood luck then :)05:59
manchickenNaw.  The whole thing is PyGTK05:59
manchickenEspecially since I'm not used to Python ^_^05:59
Jucatoheh :)06:00
manchickenSo, I'll talk to you later.06:00
manchickenI'm gonna hit the hay.06:00
Jucatogood night! and good luck again! :)06:01

mhbHobbsee: as in how to convince people to start testing Feisty etc12:00
mhbHobbsee: most of the folks who helped with Edgy were reluctant to start with Feisty right away12:01
Hobbseemhb: when it's hit feature freeze - there appear to still be heaps of problems booting yet.  that being said, perhaps figuring out what to test, and how to collate their results12:01
=== toma [n=toma@84-53-90-221.wxdsl.nl] has joined #kubuntu-devel
Hobbseesensible people.12:01
mhbHobbsee: yes12:02
mhbHobbsee: but there's the "loss of momentum" problem - when they don't know what to do for a longer period of time, they move on12:03
Hobbseemhb: that's...true...12:03
Hobbseemhb: cant really help much with that, except for merges12:03
Hobbseewhich isnt in the target12:03
mhbHobbsee: maybe someone will come up with an idea at the meeting12:05
Hobbseemhb: maybe market it as "we need people who test for a few months, then have a few months of break" etc - make it more as a casual thing, not a continous thing - you might get more people that way, if it's only a small commitment, too12:07
Hobbseemhb: if you havent already, why dont you check out the mozilla smoke test stuff, and adapt it for kubuntu.12:07
mhbHobbsee: you mean the minimal set of testcases?12:10
Hobbseemhb: well, all of it really - i've never looked into it very thoroughly12:10
Hobbseemhb: but yeah12:10
Hobbseewell, have minimal ones, then have big nitpicky ones12:10
Hobbseeinclude the cd testing in it12:10
Hobbseeof course, you're never going to get the large number of testers that mozilla gets, with teh daily builds and all that, but it might be a good start, might be helpful12:11

mhbwould it be possible for a python script to add dynamically to the wiki?12:35
mhbor for any client-side script12:36
mhbthing is, editing wiki takes more time than just submitting results because you have to edit the page itself and add your input (where it belongs)12:37
mhb(the testers have to submit their testing results to the wiki)12:38
Hobbseetrue...12:38
Hobbseepresumably a wiki is the best place for that12:39
mhbHobbsee: it's a good place, but a hard-to-edit good place12:39
Hobbseetrue12:39
Jucatonot so hard if you don't include formatting :P12:39
mhbJucato: but it's harder than just filling a form12:40
Jucatooh yeah, compared to that, definitely harder :)12:40
mhbso I'm asking if there's a chance of making a frontend to that12:40
Hobbseemhb: dunno.12:41

Enola_Gayhi all01:05
Hobbseeso you have to scroll thru all of them01:05
Hobbseethat being said...the update manager *is* nice01:05
Enola_GayIs a graphical PPPOE client planned for Feisty? It would help dsl users very much and e.g. Knoppix already have such tool.01:06
HobbseeEnola_Gay: unless it's becomming a part of knetworkmanager from suse, or someone steps in to code it, no.01:07
Hobbseeis there already a spec for it?01:07
JucatoKnoppix's tool, iirc, is just ppoeconf using something like kdialog...01:07
Hobbseedoes kppp count, btw?01:08
Enola_GayHobbsee: It is just that the console tool pppoe-conf isn't so easy to find01:08
=== Hobbsee notes it doesnt work OOTB though
Jucatono01:08
Hobbseeah01:08
Jucatokppp doesn't do PPPoE01:08
Hobbseeahhh01:08
Enola_GayHobbsee: kppp seems to be only for Dial up01:08
JucatoEnola_Gay: true that01:08
Enola_GayJucato: :)01:08
=== Hobbsee brainwave...is there anything from stopping us using the knoppix tool in kubuntu?
Enola_GayAnd I think that the pppoe gui from knoppix isn't huge but I am going to check it.01:09
JucatoEnola_Gay: unless KNOPPIX 5 has completely changed it, I'm pretty sure that it's pppoeconf01:10
JucatoHobbsee: the simplest solution, if we couldn't even find a good GUI for this, is to at least make a K Menu entry that will launch pppoeconf in Konsole... :(01:10
Enola_GayJucato: But pppoeconf is the console based tool?01:10
Enola_GayI have tested it with Knoppix 4.01:11
Enola_GaySince 5 has some huge boot problems on my laptop.01:11
JucatoEnola_Gay: yes. but somehow, KNOPPIX runs it with a GUI... I forgot what tool/program allows that.01:11
Enola_GayI burn and check it.01:11
Enola_GayIs ntfs-3g integration planned for Feisty?01:13
mhbEnola_Gay: well, you have ntfs-3g present in Edgy repos, don't you?01:14
mhbEnola_Gay: just universe or something ... it's not rock solid to be in main01:14
Jucatoah I think KNOPPIX uses something like Zenity for pppeoconf... but looking in the K Menu, it's not so evident, so I don't know what voodoo they do to make it like that01:15
Enola_Gaymhb: ok, thanks01:15
HobbseeEnola_Gay: no, it's not going to be by default01:15
Enola_GayIt is just that it makes the interoperability with Windows much more better since the "exchange partition" doesn't need to be fat32 anymore.01:16
Enola_GayBut stability is important of course.01:17
Jucatobut unlike KNOPPIX, Kubuntu doesn't absolutely need it imho. and yes, stability is very important01:18

HobbseeEnola_Gay: user data is rather important, true01:20
Enola_GayJucato: Since installation of a localized kubuntu still needs internet even with a dvd it makes sense imho. But locales could be reinstalled very easy through the language manager since dapper afaik.01:21
mhbHobbsee: I changed the structure of https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/Kubuntu/Current ... not everything is there yet but I think it's more user friendly now ... please do comment :o)01:21
Enola_GayAnd one of the greatest part of K/Ubuntu since dapper is the installer on the live cd so you could surf and do many things while installing :)01:22
JucatoEnola_Gay: I'm not sure I understand what that has to do with ntfs-3g, which I was referring to01:22
Enola_GayJucato: Sorry, I thought it was according to gui for pppoe01:22
LathiatEnola_Gay: the solaris installer starts a web browser for you :)01:22
Enola_GayLathiat: :)01:23
Enola_GayLathiat: But they have no messenger ;)01:23
Lathiattrue dat01:23
JucatoEnola_Gay: heh, I was replying to the statements immediately above :)01:23
Enola_Gay:)01:24
mhbEnola_Gay: by the way, any LoCo community can make modified CDs with their locales in ... the only thing is to mark it not as a official Kubuntu CD01:24
Enola_Gaymhb: Thats true, kubuntu.de seems to have some own reps and so own. But the official is missing for me ;)01:25

mhbin other news, Enola_Gay just got work to do01:58
=== Hobbsee suspects it would need porting
Hobbseeheh, yes01:58
Jucatoyeah, kdialog is closer to zenity than it is with xdialog... and neither kdialog nor zenity can do it...01:58
fdovingwhat is 'it' ?01:58
Jucatopppoeconf01:59
Hobbseein Jucato's statement?  kdialog01:59
Hobbseeah01:59
Enola_GayAt least a simple menu entry would do it for pppoeconf since it isn't hard to manage.01:59
fdovingJucato: xdialog is hardcoded into pppoeconf.02:00
Jucatofdoving: um... KNOPPIX uses xdialog to give a real GUI to pppoeconf, which has an entry in K Menu02:00
JucatoI don't have xdialog installed, and I can still have the pppoeconf ncurses gui02:01
fdovingi mean, the usage of xdialog vs. zenity/kdialog is hardcoded into pppoeconf.02:01
fdovingjust installing xdialog and running pppoeconf will give you the gui.02:02
Jucatoaaah02:02
mhbfdoving: so the plan is to hardcode kdialog in?02:03
Hobbseehey cool, the uni server hasnt crashed yet...02:03

fdovingJucato: i agree with you on the whiptail interface for pppoeconf, kdialog hacking is too much work.. i'm almost there, but it needs an if-then-else statement for each dialog popup, and it's too much work.03:29
fdovingit's not like pppoe is something one sets up every day.03:29
Jucatoyeah, but it's kinda tedious to set it up for the first time when you don't know the command03:30
fdovingtrue.03:30
fdovingi think your idea with the kmenu -> system -> pppoeconf menu entry is good.03:31
fdoving'konsole -e pppoeconf' or something like that.03:31
Jucatothe Kubuntu Desktop Guide links to a wiki regarding how to setup PPPoE ADSL... but how would you be able to view the wiki if you're internet connection isn't setup :)03:31

nixternalRiddell: quick reasoning behind Kexi instead of Base (for Herd2 page)05:41
Riddellnixternal: see KOfficeByDefault spec05:42
Riddellkexi is usable, oo base never seems to be05:43
nixternalcool, thanks05:43
Riddelland we've been shipping kexi by default in the WinFOSS for ages anyway :)05:43
nixternali thought so05:43
Riddellnixternal: for the adept dist upgrade stuff please make it clear it's work in progress, it currently crashes if you click Next05:43
nixternalwill do05:44
Riddellnixternal: what's the state of the adept documentation?  should we look at committing it into KDE SVN?05:45
nixternaljjesse is working on that as we speak05:46
nixternali have been working with him to get teh KDE styling down05:46
nixternalas soon as he gets it straight, either myself (pending my account approval) or Phil Rodriguez will surely upload it05:47
nixternalhowever, as you are probably aware, it will be uploaded for KDE405:47
nixternalKDE3.5.6 is frozen05:47
nixternalnothing though for us to create a patch for kde-docs to include it there05:48
Riddellnixternal: adept isn't in KDE mainline, it's in playground05:49
Riddellit doesn't have a KDE 4 branch05:49
Riddellfroud: so, seems like it's being handled05:49
nixternaloh, well then nevermind what i said05:49
nixternalif it is in playground we are fine then05:49

nixternali am not sure how or if it will be backported to 3.5.x05:53
Lurefroud: nothing should be stopped, it can just not get in 3.5.6 when freeze is active05:53
nixternalPhilRod will probably know that better than I, or askie whom I believe is doing the KOffice stuff05:54

fdovingLure: around? where are the laptop keys defined? on my ibook g4, fastup, and fastdown (fn+volup, fn+voldown) works nicely. slow-down, ctrl-fn+voldown also works. however slowup, ctrl-fn+volup triggers the popup, but does not increase the volume.09:38
Lurefdoving: fast and slow volume up/down? First time I hear about this...09:39
fdovingoh.. don't you hack volumenbuttons?09:39
Lurefdoving: we only map volume up/down09:39
Lurefdoving: I do09:39
Lurefdoving: just that it is probably not kmilo handling it for you...09:40
fdovingit's set in kmilo/generic/generic_monitor.h:6209:40
fdovingvoid slowVolumeDown();09:40
Luretrue... I recall now...09:40
fdovingdoes slow up work for you?09:40
Lurefdoving: confirmed09:41
Lurefdoving: ctrl+volup does something strange or nothing09:42
fdovingok. thanks.-09:42
fdovingi'll have a look at the code then.09:42
Lurefdoving: never used ctrl, so I did not notice it...09:43
fdoving    // FIXME if the mixer doesn't support steps of the specified size it09:43
fdoving    // could get stuck at one position09:43
fdovingit tries to use +1 steps.09:43
fdovingi'll change it to 2 or 5 or something, to test.09:44
nixternalhow come none of the feisty dailys will detect/mount my cdrom??09:44
Riddellnixternal: alternate CD?09:45
nixternalyes09:45
Lurefdoving: interesting... so probably mixer bug and kmilo just workarounds...09:45
fdovingprobably.09:45
fdovingstrange that it does work for decrease, or maybe not, i have no clue about mixers.09:46
ryanakcahmm... for some reason kmilo doesn't recognise my volup/down/mute/play-pause buttons... used to though...09:46
fdovingdid you select one of the keyboard in the keyboard-layout kcm module?09:53
fdovingLaptop/notebook Dell Inspiron 6xxx/8xxx works for my ibook g4 :)09:53
Lurefdoving: they should work out-of-box without setting layout09:55
fdovingLure: oh.. not sure they do here.09:55
Lureryanakca: please provide info on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LukaRenko/Keycodes09:55
fdovingLure: yes, they do, but i don't get the popups without selecting a keyboard.09:55
Lurefdoving: idea is that kernel+hotkey-setup ensure proper keycodes for all laptops and then we mark keycode -> xkeysym for ubuntu and assign proper actions09:56
Lurefdoving: interesting09:56
Lurefdoving: can you try w/o any layout and submit your data to above wiki page?10:04
fdovingsure.10:04
ryanakcaLure: it isn't a laptop, it's a multimedia keyboard...10:09
Lureryanakca: ok, most multimedia keyboard match with keycodes anyhow10:09
Lureryanakca: just check that keycode match the one reported by other people with laptops10:10

Lure_fdoving: can you check if mapping is correct in /usr/share/apps/kxkb/ubuntu.xmodmap10:22
Lure_fdoving:  and that /etc/X11/Xsession.d/80ubuntu-xmodmap properly starts it...10:23
fdovingmapping looks ok.10:23
Lure_fdoving: do you have ~/.Xmodmap?10:23
=== Lure_ is now known as Lure
fdovingyes i have, that's my problem i guess.10:24
fdovingi need to re-arrange some keys.. since there is no mac-no layout that matches this keyboard.. not even close.10:26
Lurefdoving: testing here...10:26
fdovingafter disabling the layouts it seems the xmodmapping is reset.10:28
Lurefdoving: having ~/.Xmodmap should not cause to break ubuntu mapping though (just tested)10:28
fdovingi didn't restart X.. i just disabled the layouts in the kcm module.10:28
fdovingi belive that leaves them to NoSymbol10:29
Lurefdoving: right, that is probably the cause - I have patched kxkb to re-apply xmodmap after layout switch, but this probably has to be done also after layout enable/disable10:29
Lurefdoving: even though this is not as often done as layout switch (I have english and slovene keyboard I switch often)10:29
Lurefdoving: probably - we can patch kcm module to also re-apply xmodmaps...10:30

ryanakcayep10:34
Lureryanakca: I recall Riddell fixing some bug in kdebase recently - are you up-to-date?10:34
ryanakcaand kmilo is running... according to System Settings (which was broken as well :D )10:34
ryanakcaEdgy, yes10:34
Lurefdoving: this is already done - it will be in Herd210:35
Lurefdoving: just need to fix some boring corner cases for config file handling and then I can prepare new package ;-)10:35
fdovingLure: good thing. will that support using 'powernowd' to manage 'auto' and setting the governors to powersave and performance for others or what?10:36
fdovingthing is, my laptop doesn't handle the 'ondemand' governor.. i need powernowd.10:36
Lurefdoving: we provide Dynamic (ondemand), Performance and Powersave10:36
fdovingLure: I want 'Dynamic (powernowd)'10:36
fdoving.. i can hack that myself though :)10:37
Lurefdoving: is this userspace?10:37
fdovingyes.10:37
fdovingor.. Userspace support ofcourse.10:37
fdovingthat'll handle it.10:37
Lurefdoving: I can try to fix this - can you test this script on your system:10:39
Lurehttp://lure.lu.funpic.de/kubuntu/dbus-cpufreq.py10:39
Lureprovide output when executed without arguments10:40
Lurefdoving: and you can specify governer as argument to change it10:40
fdovingLure: figured it out. works. conservative and ondemand does not work on G4s. but changing between the others does work.10:42
fdovingthat is like the simplest script.. ever :)10:42
fdovinghal is cool.10:42
Lurefdoving: but does HAL report them as supported?10:42
fdovingLure: how do i find that out?10:42
fdovingthey are listed by the script, yes.10:42
Lurefdoving: this script reports supported10:43
fdovingthe modules are loaded.10:43
Lurefdoving: just changing to them fails?10:43
fdovingthe kernel lists them as available.10:43
fdovingcorrect.10:43
Luredoes my script fail with error or just silently?10:43
fdovingwith error.10:44
fdovingi'll pastebin.10:44
Lurefdoving: I am thinking of doing dynamic like this: set(ondemand) if fails, then set(userspace)10:44
Lurefdoving: great!10:44
Lurefdoving: we will not support conservative anyhow10:44
Lurefdoving: we this that Dynamic, Powersave and Performance is good enough10:45
Lurefdoving: most users should just have Dynamic always (battery or mains powered)10:46
Lurefdoving: Performance/Powersave make sense for some rare people that would like to squize more juice out of battery and that do not want to wait for swithch to perofrmance on adapter10:47
fdovingi agree.10:47
fdovingI use performance when i'm on AC, this cpu is slow at switching..10:48
fdovingthat's why it's not supported by the ondemand governor.10:48
Lurefdoving: if you want to test latest powermanager, you can get it from KDE svn (it is easy, since it is python)10:48
fdovingalso, sometimes whem i'm on AC i want it to be quiet.. meetings and so on.. so i force low cpu speeds.10:48
Lurefdoving: ok, it makes sense10:48
fdovinggood.10:48
fdovingbrb..10:49
Lurefdoving: do not forget to paste error messages - I need them to implement userspace10:49
fdovingah.. i'll do it first.10:51
