[01:27] they are resolving lots of issue, but creating many ones too [01:30] indeed [01:30] do they *really* solve much at all? === sahin_w [i=kvirc@nat/hp/x-129d92c6915def14] has joined #kubuntu-devel === freet15__ [n=freet15@61.48.78.3] has joined #kubuntu-devel [01:35] Hobbsee: they do resolve all gtk apps issues with medias [01:35] Hobbsee: that's a lot ;) [01:35] ah yes, of course. [01:36] but they create lots of other issues, with logout/login, with qtparted, with any app that requires that the media is unmounted [01:36] it seems they don't work the same way on every machine [01:36] I have a usb key that doesn't work anymore on my computer [01:36] but works in /media [01:36] Tonio_: we couldnt do along the lines of "if a non-kde app is using it, use /media, else use media:/" ? [01:36] Hobbsee: hard to do ;) [01:37] or symlink /media to media:/ or something? === freeflying [i=flyingfr@gobstopper.dreamhost.com] has joined #kubuntu-devel [01:37] Hobbsee: but well as feisty is the latest kde3 based version of kubuntu, we have to consider it as an lts [01:37] and in my opinion, we should rediscuss this [01:37] yes - but what's the solution though? [01:37] the point is that /media related issues are undocumented over the net [01:37] yeah [01:37] the /media:/ issues with gtk apps are [01:37] media:/ sorry [01:37] indeed [01:38] so maybe it's better to let people with those issues since they can find help everywhere, on any board etc.... [01:38] kde4 will correct those issues out of the box, that's the good point [01:38] Hobbsee: another issue is the naming of the desktop icons [01:38] disk1 is really crappy [01:39] kde native does a great translated naming [01:39] woot :) === Ingmar^ [n=ingmar@vpnc081.ugent.be] has joined #kubuntu-devel [01:39] we should discuss this and vote at the next kubuntu-meeting [01:39] Tonio_: so what does this "help" entail? [01:39] it was interesting to test with edgy, now we have to debate this for a stable release [01:40] which "help" are you talking about ? [01:40] [23:38] so maybe it's better to let people with those issues since they can find help everywhere, on any board etc.... <-- that help [01:41] Hobbsee: the fact that the standard kde issues are documented everywhere on the next board etc.... [01:41] the kubuntu specific issues aren't [01:41] that's a problem [01:42] is there *any* way to fix both sets of issues? [01:42] ah yes, true [01:42] Hobbsee: nope except improving the patches, but that's really hard job [01:43] hrm [01:43] Hobbsee: the point is that all kubuntu apps, even openoffice deal correctly with media:/ [01:43] only gnome apps fail [01:43] well edgy was to test new things [01:43] new we have to debate this and looks at the consequences [01:43] right. patching all the gnome apps to behave isnt a solution, presumably [01:43] my opinion is "get the patches improved or remove them" [01:44] that would be mine as well [01:44] Hobbsee: the solution is kde4 ;) [01:44] well, yeah. but that hasnt been released yet :) :P [01:44] and honnestly I don't think _Sime will have time for this actually [01:44] Hobbsee: that's the problem, we have to decide which issues we want to have [01:44] yes...he seems pretty busy [01:44] to me, on the desktop part, for a normal usage, the old media:/ is less problematic [01:45] only gtk apps are involved, that's it [01:45] the new creates lots of issues on the standard desktop usage [01:45] like formatting a drive with qtparted, crappy render on the desktop "icon names" [01:45] Hobbsee: another example, insert an audiocd and go to /media [01:46] sorry to beat the horse repeatedly here, but is there *any* way of fixing the gtk apps, short of patching? [01:46] then click on the cd -> blank folder [01:46] yeah === Hobbsee has noticed that [01:46] that's why the desktop icon still uses audiocd:/ === Hobbsee notes that you can probably type /media into gtk apps? [01:46] but john doe will probably not figure and understand that [01:46] yeah [01:46] Hobbsee: yes you can [01:47] there are lots os issues like this one [01:47] then lets pull the patches. [01:47] to mount network shares too, doesn't work anymore [01:47] and that causes another problem : [01:47] all kde docs are broken due to those patches [01:47] that's the only thing that's effected by pulling the patches? the gtk apps? or have i missed something? [01:47] someone trying to do something according to the kde docs will stay locked on the computer [01:47] yep [01:48] mostly gtk apps issues yes === \sh is now known as \sh_away [01:48] some kde apps have problems with media:/ [01:48] maybe put something in the kubuntu-specific notes about gtk needing to use /media instead of media:/ by typing it in - but i think we need to pull the patches [01:48] oh? [01:48] but that's generally a matter of patching the desktop file [01:48] which we do [01:48] ah [01:48] in the current stage I would vote for removing them yes [01:49] pity Riddell isnt around [01:49] because to me feisty is an lts [01:49] and it needs to work. [01:49] feisty+1 will probably not be that mature [01:49] heh, no. [01:49] not if it's got kde 4.0 in there [01:50] it'll have kde4 for sure, unless kde4 is a peace if shit :) [01:50] hehe :) [01:50] feisty+1 will be experimental [01:50] edgy was experimental [01:50] do we need to pull them now, or should we ask if anyone has some major gripe about them on the mailing list first? === Jucato thinks they're expecting 4.0 to be at least a bit shitty if not shifty... [01:51] so feisty is the only stable and mature version of kubuntu to be released between dapper and feisty+2 [01:51] that's 18 month ! [01:51] Tonio_: ouch. lets pull them - or go to the ML first? [01:51] Hobbsee: bah if _Sime didn't do better it's probably because the all kde structure is based on media:/ and ioslaves [01:52] that's an horribly complicated thing o change....... [01:52] yes....it's pretty much changing a core piece of kde [01:52] Hobbsee: I would say discuss on the meeting and decide... [01:52] there is no emergency at the moment [01:52] Tonio_: we dont have a time for the next meeting [01:52] Hobbsee: let's plan it :) [01:52] Tonio_: it's just a fwe more weeks that we ahve for testing, and any regressions. [01:53] Hobbsee: bah it's okay [01:53] Hobbsee: the point is that we know what'll happen if we pull them [01:53] standard kde behavior :) [01:53] Tonio_: the other question is, do we pull the edgy version with a SRU, or jus tleave it? [01:53] no surprise and no need to test, the issues are already well known === Hobbsee is...wary of what this person will do, screaming over and over [01:53] Hobbsee: I'd say don't touch edgy [01:53] ditto cimmo, if he sees it [01:53] it's crappy, so let's focus on feisty [01:53] fair enough [01:54] the only thing I wanna fix on edgy is the knetworkmanager issue [01:54] that's a pitty [01:54] and the kwallet one too [01:54] what was the kwallet one? [01:54] yes...but putting thru SRU's is a bitch, so i dont do them :P [01:54] looses passwords on session restore [01:54] I have a patch for this [01:55] I'm just waiting for 3.5.6 to put it in [01:55] ah [01:55] neat :) [01:55] er...did we already have 3.5.6 edgy debs? === Hobbsee looks [01:55] not officials [01:56] ah yes, right. not on kubuntu.org === meduxa [n=agustin@84.Red-217-127-164.staticIP.rima-tde.net] has joined #kubuntu-devel [01:58] we have to decide a date for the next meeting :) [01:58] I'd like to propose a new kicker structure too [01:59] what would it be? [01:59] let me show you === Jucato is curious.... [02:00] http://tonio.homelinux.org/temp/capture5.png [02:00] same space used, but desktop applet present, since lots of windows user complain they don't find the same in kubuntu [02:00] and that's very usefull [02:01] and I used the app launcher [02:01] desktop applet? [02:01] the left icon [02:01] oh, show desktop? [02:01] yeah [02:01] yep [02:01] and I used the app launcher [02:01] those 6 little ones on the left - how did you make them go small? [02:01] nobody knows that so we have to put it by default [02:01] Quick Launcher [02:01] Hobbsee: I used the app launcher applet [02:01] you can add whatever you want on it [02:02] I just put all the power apps and that's it [02:02] ahhh :) [02:02] and reduced the virtual desktops to 2, right? [02:02] so *that's* how they do it! [02:02] nobody knows this applet which is a must have [02:02] yep, that's enough for the common usage [02:02] hm... [02:02] wouldn't the quick launcher sort of (in some way) duplicate Katapult? [02:03] no [02:03] not really [02:03] ok :) [02:04] Jucato: nobody knows katapult exist :) [02:04] Tonio_: that's going to change, according to Mez, right? [02:04] to me katapult is very usefull for apps I'm not using everyday [02:04] Jucato: we are going to rediscuss this on the next meeting [02:05] I wanna enable the icon in the tray by default [02:05] yes, please do :) [02:05] so that people figure out it exists [02:05] it's one of the ways you can "refresh" Katapult when you install a new app [02:05] people that don't want the icon can remove it after installation [02:05] Jucato: true [02:05] so what's your opinion on that new kicker structure ? [02:05] argh. you cant actually move the kapp thingo [02:06] Hobbsee: no just right lick on the applet and add new app [02:06] Hobbsee: bah it works here [02:06] Tonio_: yes, but once youv'e done work on it, you cnat actually move it down [02:06] hwo'd you do it? [02:06] I can slide an app from the kmenu to the launcher applet [02:06] no, i mean move the launcher applet along the kicker [02:07] er.. use the handles [02:07] you can by clicking the little arrow on the left of the applet [02:07] and configure it to "keep space" icons look better that way [02:07] "Conserve space" (in English I think) [02:07] you have a few kicker applets that you cannot move via right click, like the trash one [02:07] ahhh... [02:07] you can even set icon size :) [02:08] the only universal way os the little arrow on the left of the applet === Hobbsee prefers the not conserved space option, actually [02:08] ditto Hobbsee [02:08] Hobbsee: yes sorry uncheck it ;) [02:08] so yes, that applet is a killer and we should provide it by default in my opinion :) [02:08] I hope you'll vote for me next meeting :) [02:08] does a non-member's vote count? [02:09] Tonio_: you know, i'd looked at that in the screenshots, and wondered how people got that effect... [02:09] sure but not that much :) [02:09] heh :) [02:09] Jucato: why arent you a member yet? [02:09] Hobbsee: funny you should ask that... [02:09] Hobbsee: yes, that's why I wanna provide that by default, so that people figure out what's possible [02:09] :) [02:10] someone asked me that exact same question last night... [02:10] :) [02:10] Jucato: well technically the CC takes the decision, but of course of the all members want something different, that'll be debated ;) [02:10] :) [02:10] Tonio_: lock and logout buttons on there too would be good [02:10] do you like my kicker arrangement ? [02:11] hum on kicker ? [02:11] Tonio_: any chance we coudl put rubbish in home:/ or something? [02:11] Hobbsee: that's already in the system applet [02:11] I can't recall, but wasn the Trash can [02:11] no duplicated please ;) [02:11] rawr... [02:11] the Trach icon on the desktop in Edgy? [02:11] Tonio_: ahhh...that's the one i meant. [02:11] the trash icon there has *always* annoyed me [02:11] Hobbsee: where? desktop or panel? [02:12] what's the point in having it there - most of the time, you dont want to clear the trash - why have it taking up screen space? [02:12] panel.. desktop. either/both, actually [02:12] heh [02:12] hobbsee: its to drag things too also === neversfelde_ [n=chrman@nrbg-d9321241.pool.mediaWays.net] has joined #kubuntu-devel [02:12] heya Lathiat :) [02:12] except i wonder how many people actually do that ;) [02:12] howdy [02:12] http://tonio.homelinux.org/capture6.png [02:12] you can drag on the desktop too, provided it's visible :) [02:12] I DEMAND USABILITY TESTING ;) [02:12] Lathiat: ahhh...point. see, most people know about the "delete" key [02:12] Hobbsee: would you prefer this ? [02:12] Tonio_: sure, i prefer 404'd images :P [02:12] look on the right ;) [02:13] http://tonio.homelinux.org/temp/capture6.png [02:13] ahh yes, that looks better. === neversfelde_ is now known as neversfelde === Jucato thinks dragging to the trash applet is as unfamiliar to new users as pressing Ctrl+Alt+D... [02:13] doesn't that duplicates a bit ? [02:13] it's just on the bottom of kmenu..... [02:13] good thing I'm not a member... I'd -1 the logout applet :) [02:14] Jucato: personnaly I prefer the trash applet on the left [02:14] nearby the system applet [02:14] but that's an ubuntu/kubuntu/xubuntu specific, we have to keep it on the right [02:14] trash applet on the left? [02:14] I'd -1 the logout applet too [02:15] hehe unique :) [02:15] well that can be discussed too, but we need something simple, since anyone has a different vision :) [02:15] Hobbsee: I'd say that the logout applet on kicker is 1) a power user feature and 2) a GNOME "standard" (no GNOME bashing from me) [02:16] indeed. it's something that i really miss in kde [02:16] another one will want the file browser applet [02:16] quick file browser? [02:16] yup [02:16] but please no ! === gnomefreak wants [02:16] haha [02:16] heh soon our kicker will be corwded :) === Hobbsee thwacks gnomefreak [02:16] I use it, but that's not for the masse ! [02:16] ;) [02:16] bah wy not the 2 buttons [02:17] kind of unify gnome/kde on ubuntu [02:17] that's not that bad [02:17] if Riddell agrees :) [02:17] we have the trash on the right for the same reason so.... === gnomefreak mad as crap with that damn docker still [02:17] were is it on ubuntu ? [02:17] bottom panel right [02:17] right or left of the trash ? === Hobbsee still cant really see the rationale on that trash, and dragging to trash [02:17] err? [02:17] the logout thing [02:18] trash - bottom right, logut - top right [02:18] logout even [02:18] iirc [02:18] thats right [02:18] yeah that's a problem we only have one bar, better not put too many things on it, so logout/lock is maby too much [02:18] http://tonio.homelinux.org/temp/capture5.png [02:18] that's better ;) [02:19] that also present all power apps instead of just konqueror/kontact [02:19] amarok needs to be easilly accessible [02:19] the content isn't the final of course, it is just the concept of using the launcher applet, [02:20] killer and unknown thing [02:20] i'm wondering about the kaffeine though - do you need it - if you are playing removable media, then it comes up anyway [02:20] yeah [02:20] no [02:20] coulb be this in fact === Jucato likes the fact that Konvi is there :) [02:20] :) [02:20] konqui, kopete, k3b, amarok [02:20] but maybe Kopete instead of Konvi? === gnomefreak didnt know konvi was popular [02:20] I would say no [02:20] k3b should be removed too [02:20] Jucato: once kopete is started, it stays in the tray - no real need? [02:21] true... [02:21] Tonio_: k3b is widely used [02:21] true ;) [02:21] so like this ! [02:21] but it's a quick launcher, a way to quickly launch apps [02:21] gnomefreak: sure, but how often do you burn a cd? :P [02:21] konvi over kopete IMHO [02:21] Hobbsee: point [02:21] hat's my point too [02:21] kopete instead of konversatio === Jucato is biased and would prefer konvi over kopete... but thinks more people are interested in IM than in IRC... [02:22] does kopete usually start on startup? like, is there a setting for that? [02:22] um nope it doesn't [02:22] http://tonio.homelinux.org/temp/capture7.png [02:22] unless it's saved in a session [02:22] how about that ? === gnomefreak perfers irssi over kopete or konvi [02:23] can be gwenview too [02:23] that's very usefull [02:23] or digikam [02:23] well any user can add what he wants after the installation [02:23] the point is just showing the user the applet exists [02:23] digikam == importer of photos from cam? [02:23] that's the idea [02:23] yep [02:23] gnomefreak: yes [02:23] but a bit more than that... [02:23] the content is not important according to me [02:24] I use it for photo/album organizing :) [02:24] Tonio_: i like the idea of adding that than since alot of users use digi cams [02:24] yeah, let's just basically tell them that such a feature exists, then let them customize :) [02:24] Jucato: that's it [02:24] the default content is not the point [02:24] gnomefreak: but,like Kaffeine, digikam could be launched when you plug in a camera, afaik [02:24] that's the problem we also have with katapult [02:25] it is there but who knows ? [02:25] that would be better [02:25] yeah, it's a problem seele had with katapult too :) [02:25] Jucato: true [02:25] Jucato: we need to change that [02:25] she also had a problem of "what to do with katapult once launched" [02:25] I discussed with Mez and we absolutly agree on that point [02:25] we shouldn't hide the icon by default [02:25] ;) [02:26] and let riddel hide it after installation since he hates systray icons :) [02:26] lol [02:26] Tonio_, I see Riddell's POv === Jucato loves systray icons... I'm weird that way [02:26] it's a notification area - whats it notifying you of [02:26] true [02:26] it notifies you that it exists... [02:26] that it's running [02:27] because I can't say a user "you wanna configure katapult ? [02:27] okay let's do alt + space [02:27] then ctrl + C [02:27] you could also say the same for kmix [02:27] sucks.... really ! [02:27] Jucato: exactly [02:27] (besides, it's only GNOME that calls it notification area... we call it system tray) [02:27] Jucato, Riddell doesnt have kmix there either IIRC from when I was fiddling with his lappy [02:28] Mez: I'm not even sure riddell uses the systray applet at all ;) [02:28] Mez: we're unfortunately not blessed with Riddell's greatness... :( [02:28] Riddell uses konsole + konqueror and that's it ;) [02:28] Tonio_, lol ... how did ou know ? [02:28] Mez: I met him several times [02:29] I think (unsure) he doesn't use contact for his mails [02:29] but a command line thing [02:29] don't recall the name... [02:29] wow [02:29] Tonio_, I believe he uses mutt [02:29] yes that's it [02:29] a true blue, old-school Linux user :) [02:29] well everybody can do what he wants, that's not the point [02:30] but katapult has to fit in the systray as default option [02:30] I would probably hide it, but the default hidden thing is a problem, really [02:30] since any new user misses a true kubuntu unique feature [02:31] my girlfriend uses kubuntu for 1 year now [02:31] a very powerful true kubuntu unique feature [02:31] Mez: I discussed with her 2 days ago, she didn't knew katapult at all [02:31] I would even suggest that the popup at every boot should be there by default [02:31] so that the user would test "alt + space" just to guess what it is [02:31] then he can remove this if he wants [02:32] it is important that the user is invited to perform an alt + space at the first boot, really [02:32] Mez: no ? === RadiantFire [n=ryan@upstream/dev/RadiantFire] has joined #kubuntu-devel [02:32] then he can remove that easilly via the systray icon, and even hide the icon and that's it === Mez shrugs [02:33] we have to think like a newbie in front of kubuntu for the first time === gnomefreak is still a newbie only been using ubuntu for a couple years [02:33] lol [02:34] one of Kubuntu's good images is being easy to learn/use for new Linux users. so let's try to keep that up :) [02:36] Jucato: bah concerning katapult, it is simply unvisible for the user actually [02:36] invisible, sorry [02:36] yeah [02:36] Jucato: going too easy may cause drop in proformance no? [02:36] gnomefreak: er.. not always :) [02:36] Mez: concerning me you'll get the full support on the meeting :) === gnomefreak likes unvisible more than in... [02:37] Tonio_, when is the meeting? [02:37] makes more sense [02:37] Mez: we have to plan it :) [02:37] i'd say soon since we have lots of things to debate [02:37] gnomefreak: since when did English make sense? :P [02:37] I'd like next week on thursday [02:37] ;) [02:37] true [02:38] Mez: start by adding your point there : https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/Meetings [02:38] Mez: I'll try to get a date defined today [02:39] Tonio_: of the meeting? argh. [02:39] Hobbsee: not today for the meeting [02:39] today to define the date ;) [02:39] Tonio_, can it wait till thursday when I'[ve got my rrota so I can see when I'm available [02:39] yes. argh [02:39] Mez: ditto [02:39] Mez: thursday next week :) [02:39] we generally never plan a meeting before one week [02:40] sure it can wait ;) [02:40] no problem [02:40] let's plan this on thursday === Tonio_ is in love with kftpgrabber [02:40] you all should try it ! [02:40] heh :) [02:40] latest version kickass === Jucato has it installed, but still uses Konqueror for quick, medium sized transfers [02:41] Jucato: konqueror frezzes regularly when you want to upload/download a hudge file list [02:41] like 100 or 200 files === Hobbsee doesnt grab big files [02:42] heh yeah... that's why I said medium sized :) [02:42] Tonio_, I dont know when I'm free until this thursday thoguh [02:42] fortunately, I neither have the bandwidth nor the storage for that many files :P [02:42] me neither, but lots of little files, that can happen like a phpscript [02:42] a board like vbulletin [02:42] Mez: okay so let's wait a bit, no emergency [02:42] Mez: but please add your point [02:43] I think there was a bug filed on that, iirc. came across it during the last bug weekend [02:43] Jucato: bah vbulletin is 800k you know :) [02:43] lots of very little files in fact [02:43] O.O === freet15__ [n=freet15@61.48.78.3] has joined #kubuntu-devel === ingmar [n=ingmar@vpna249.ugent.be] has joined #kubuntu-devel === serzholino [n=serzholi@16x.zp.ua] has left #kubuntu-devel [] === freet15__ [n=freet15@61.48.78.3] has joined #kubuntu-devel === kwwii [n=kwwii@scandic759.host.songnetworks.se] has joined #kubuntu-devel === Huahua [n=hua@122.0.229.171] has joined #kubuntu-devel === freet15__ [n=freet15@61.48.78.3] has joined #kubuntu-devel === chavo [n=chavo@atlsfl-bundle-69-167-93-31.atlsfl.adelphia.net] has joined #kubuntu-devel === Riddell wanders back and wonders what this systray suggestion is about [03:47] heh :) [03:53] hi all [03:53] hi mhb [03:53] Riddell: Tonio_ and Mez suggested having katapult icon in systray, at least last time they were suggesting that [03:55] god no [03:55] why would they want the icon in the systray? [03:56] some people live in the systray [03:56] they want everything in there === mhb is with you two on that one [03:56] I guess so, I can't stand having a filled up systray [03:56] exactly [03:56] 1) Many don't know Katapult exists, the popup notification only flashes for a very short time (and it doesn't flash if it's a saved session iirc) [03:56] especially since I run a smaller than default Kicker, so my systray is on 1 line and not split [03:57] if people don't know it exists, they won't miss it [03:57] heh, that's true [03:58] 2) without a system tray icon, there is no immediately apparent way to configure katapult. sometimes you have to manually run Configure katapult to sort of update it after installing a new program [03:58] I know I have documented the Ctr+C keycombo after you Alt+Space to get into the configure menu [03:58] Jucato: 2) can be solved in the documentaion, isn't it? [03:58] mhb: yes it is, I did it :) [03:58] no, 2) should be solved with a UI fix [03:58] how do you get immediately to the documentation? [03:58] Riddell: people that don't want it in the systray can remove it in the conf [03:58] Tonio_: people that want it in the systray can add it in the conf [03:58] Jucato: Mez creates a new package with the fixed Makefile :) === vinboy [n=vinboy@125-238-83-231.broadband-telecom.global-gateway.net.nz] has joined #kubuntu-devel [03:59] nixternal: thanks for that, then [03:59] nixternal: I mean, how do you immediately reach the documentation to know how to configure Katapult? you'd have to search through khelpcenter... === claydoh_ [n=claydoh@66-252-52-90.dyn-adsl.midmaine.net] has joined #kubuntu-devel [03:59] fix the katapult UI! don't add a systray applet [03:59] Riddell: +1 [04:00] add a bit to the UI that you click on to get a menu [04:00] Riddell: I would agree on that point if we let the start popup [04:01] that invites the user to perform an alt+space [04:01] Riddell: add a bit to the Ubiquity slideshow as well letting users know about Katapult :) [04:01] mabye Katapult's popup can be made to appear (a bit longer?) even when starting from a saved session [04:01] nixternal: good plan (not that I see the slideshow happening for feisty) [04:01] Riddell: how about that : [04:01] UI is fixed so that there is a configure option when you perform alt+space [04:01] we let the popup by default [04:01] then the user is invited to alt+space [04:01] fix UI yes [04:01] and can remove the popup if he wants [04:02] how about that solution ? [04:02] don't have an annoying popup, that's also annoying [04:02] Riddell: argh, that means I have to do more Kubuntu documentation :) [04:02] nixternal: what does? [04:02] I am so glad you told me that, because I was not going to do any release notes what so ever [04:02] Riddell: as long as it can be removed very easilly when you perform the suggested icon ? [04:04] Riddell: lots of kubuntu are missing a super functionnality, that's a problem.... [04:04] katapult is a great tool, why not let people know that it exists... (and how to use it) [04:04] it's an advanced user tool [04:04] Jucato: I have never seen the popup when I first ran katapult [04:04] same as alt-f2 [04:04] to me as long as the popup is there and alt+space provide a configuration access, that's okay no ? [04:04] Jucato: and I have not needed it for a loong time (the configuration) [04:04] mhb: maybe, but for example, it's currently the only way to sort of refresh katapult when new items are added to the K Menu [04:04] back to school [04:05] also, some people might want to turn off some of the catalogs [04:05] Jucato: yes, but not everyone === Jucato didn't know/think that katapult was an advanced tool... [04:06] mhb: same as not everyone having no need to configure it [04:06] Jucato: msg me *testing something* [04:07] lol === Ingmar^ [n=ingmar@vpnc022.ugent.be] has joined #kubuntu-devel [04:08] popups are also annoying [04:08] just for a few seconds longer than the current duration... just enough to be read properly... [04:10] Jucato: that's one thing why people hate MS Windows [04:10] Jucato: because it shows popups for unnecessary things [04:10] Jucato: when the computer is interrupting me (with a popup, for example) it should need my concentration for a very good reason [04:11] depends I guess if you consider informing the user about this feature unnecessary... [04:11] um... the popup only displays for a few seconds on startup... [04:12] Jucato: only in such manner [04:12] I doubt you'd be fully concentrated during that time... === bddebian [n=bdefrees@63.81.56.182] has joined #kubuntu-devel [04:12] Jucato: katapult is not the most important part of the system, it's just a single part [04:12] Jucato: why should it get more attention that any other app? [04:12] Jucato: those are really useful too [04:13] because those other apps are not like katapult, i.e. not needing attention, not needing a special way to activate, not having a special purpose like it [04:13] Heya [04:14] Jucato: no need to argue about it now :o) [04:14] even seele was a bit confused about this. she didn't know that it existed (or what it was) and how to use it, just basing on the gui and visual feedback... [04:14] Jucato: after all, I'm not the right person to convince [04:14] heh :) [04:14] I won't try to do anymore convincing... === Jucato doesn't have the right to +1 anyway :) [04:15] Jucato: I'd say you have the right to vote, even if you're not part of the Council === Jucato is not even a member [04:16] Jucato: even though only the Council votes count, I know :o) [04:16] I'm not sure popups would be the solution anyway [04:16] Jucato: being a member doesn't mean much :P [04:16] I think katapult should have it in its actual start-screen, but don't ask me how exactly that would be implemented ;-) [04:17] Jucato: I'd welcome having a clickable help label next to the clickable menu on the UI that has a what's this type introduction to katapult [04:17] anyway, main problem with katapult is lack of developers [04:18] hm... === manchicken|away [n=manchick@12.47.30.10] has joined #kubuntu-devel === mbiebl [n=michael@e180075103.adsl.alicedsl.de] has joined #kubuntu-devel === GNUro [i=GNUro@gateway/tor/x-0a500c26cb4edbf8] has joined #kubuntu-devel === stivani [n=stivani@d51531068.access.telenet.be] has joined #kubuntu-devel [04:42] Riddell: I see your point of view, but my concern is how do people even know that katapult exists on a fresh install since it is invisible.... === claydoh [n=claydoh@66-252-52-90.dyn-adsl.midmaine.net] has joined #kubuntu-devel === guglielf [n=guglielf@unaffiliated/guglielf] has joined #kubuntu-devel === freet15__ [n=freet15@61.48.78.3] has joined #kubuntu-devel === |infinity| [n=TheInfin@p508F188B.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #kubuntu-devel [04:56] Tonio_: same way people know about alt-f2 === seaLne discovers what alt-f2 does [05:00] :) [05:00] I agree it's an issue, but I don't think annoying things that get in the way are the solution [05:00] make KMenu->Run Command do something with katapult would be better [05:00] Riddell: I have another option, how about that : [05:01] although that would annoy the alt-f2 hardcore users [05:01] UI is patched to give access to the conf, and gets a radio button to "disable popup at startup" [05:01] and we enable the popup [05:01] nooo [05:01] no default annoying popups [05:01] that's totally un-ubuntu [05:02] so you want something that feets powerusers needs by default, and let the newbie unaware of what's going on ? ;) [05:02] to me ONE configuration thing to do for the poweruser isn't that bad.... [05:02] well it is a poweruser's tool [05:02] hum... in a certain way yes [05:02] normal users have the k-menu [05:03] Riddell: then we should patch kdebluetooth for it's popup too :) [05:03] I've not noticed a popup from it [05:03] you have a popup everytime you connect a bluetooth key [05:03] but as long as certain programs which you install per gui are not startable in the menu, we need something else [05:03] so if bluetooth is embedded, you get the popup at every startup [05:03] so, if it doesn't show up in the menu, it does not show up in katapult either [05:04] kdebluetooth is not embedded by default, it's hidden [05:04] Riddell: the icon yes, but not the menu :) [05:04] not the popup sorry [05:04] maybe that's not the case if you have bluetooth built in? [05:04] maybe.... [05:04] I get the popup with my bluetooth key everytime [05:05] so it happens when you plug in your bluetooth dongle? [05:05] yes [05:05] it lets me know a bluetooth device has been found, just tested [05:05] that's fine, it's useful feedback in reponse to an action [05:05] but that's nice [05:05] you have bluetooth embedded right ? [05:06] I've never used bluetooth in my life [05:06] someone really should test it in feisty to make sure it's still working :) [05:06] Riddell: hehe, so to what I know, kdebluetooth popups you ANYTIME a device is found [05:06] even at startup [05:06] Riddell: just tested here it's okay [05:06] groovy [05:06] but the problem is I'm certain it popups you when you have embedded bluetooth [05:07] yep confirmed [05:07] kwwii: katapult only shows apps that are in the k-menu, that's where it gets its list from [05:07] I would probably prefer to remove the popup and let the systray icon appear ONLY if a bluetooth device exists [05:07] how about that solution ? [05:07] Tonio_: that sounds sensible [05:07] it's a standard one, that's the way windows and osx do [05:08] I'll look at the config since I'm not sure that's feasible [05:08] actually, kde does not have any rights to use that logo (check the webpage, they are really picky about that) [05:09] kwwii: ? [05:09] although suse is a member [05:09] the bluetooth logo is closed source [05:09] oh, bluetooth logo?

[05:22] the kdebluetooth author made it [05:22] arguably it's a violation of copyright and/or trademark [05:22] and arguably it isn't [05:23] bah isn't kdebluetooth gpl licenced globally ? [05:23] I don't see the point [05:23] licences things are really annoying [05:23] do we have any right to use the msn or aol logos in kopete ? ;) === toma [n=toma@84-53-90-221.wxdsl.nl] has joined #kubuntu-devel [05:27] Tonio_: What logos? *whistle* === \sh_away is now known as \sh === freet15__ [n=freet15@61.48.78.3] has joined #kubuntu-devel [05:28] Tonio_: arguably they breach copyright and/or trademark, but yes, it's much the same issue [05:28] and I go on the side of they don't [05:30] sure === Tonio_ tries to patch klibido for new command line arg [05:31] hard for me [05:33] to do what? === manchicken likes the K-bluetooth icon. === manchicken doesn't have anything bluetooth though. [05:34] Riddell: to open a nzb file on the command line [05:34] then I'll also provide a new kon search engine with the package [05:34] so that you can use it the same way you use ktorrent === Ingmar^ [n=ingmar@vpnb182.ugent.be] has joined #kubuntu-devel [05:34] better integration in fact [05:34] but generally not for legal stuff...... like ktorrent :) [05:34] Riddell: While you're here, I need more stuff to do. [05:34] Riddell: I'm getting bored without anything to do. [05:34] oh, did Tonio_ upload that adept_batch patch? [05:35] Riddell: yes of course [05:35] How will I have a weekend of hacking without anything to hack? *sob* [05:35] groovy [05:35] Riddell: I also patchd kss for more subsections [05:35] that required to manage all kcm correctly [05:35] I'll send the patch to sebas for revuing [05:36] I'd like to stick with smaller stuff for a little while until I'm more comfortable with C++. [05:36] My comfort level with the STL is low. [05:38] hmm [05:38] nothing c++ish comes to mind [05:38] various python things do === oslo [n=Lancelot@alf94-5-82-225-102-119.fbx.proxad.net] has joined #kubuntu-devel [05:39] Hmm... [05:39] "Add changelog support to adept_updater." [05:40] Oh, to give you a little blurb about what changed? [05:40] "adept_installer should make use of the popularity data in the application .desktop files it reads." [05:40] That would be nice. [05:40] What is "popularity" data/ [05:40] How popular it is? [05:40] yes [05:40] Like, how often it's run? [05:40] Or how often it's installed? [05:41] tail /usr/share/app-install/desktop/gtm.desktop [05:43] X-AppInstall-Popcon=16 [05:43] it's that bit [05:43] gnome-app-install shows pretty stars to display how popular it is [05:43] same thing in adept_installer would be cool [05:43] <\sh> guys, did anyone saw this behaviour: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wine/+bug/79265 [05:43] Malone bug 79265 in wine "WIne x-server crash on feisty" [Undecided,Needs info] [05:43] and changelog support is to show the new entries from the file at changelogs.ubuntu.com for the package in adept_installer === Riddell never used wine === mbiebl [n=michael@e180075103.adsl.alicedsl.de] has joined #kubuntu-devel [05:43] update-tool already shows changelogs, I'm not sure of the UI but it's hidden by default === manchicken doesn't use wine.... [05:44] Riddell: Ahhh... [05:44] changelog data is developer orientated, not intended for the user, but some people find it handy [05:44] That could be neet. [05:45] and it only shows the changelog entries since the currently installed version [05:45] Well, maybe we could have a little question mark icon next to packages that have changelog data, and when you click it it loads it. === poningru [n=poningru@n128-227-11-224.xlate.ufl.edu] has joined #kubuntu-devel [05:46] Riddell: can you remind me of the kopete bug ? I'll post comments according to my tests [05:47] https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=140307 ? [05:47] KDE bug 140307 in general "Kopete's balloon stops working with 3.5.6" [Normal,New] [05:47] thanks Ubugtu [05:47] Riddell: I would say that the bug is in kwin, since it happened when I upgraded kwin [05:47] but I don't understand that it didn't work with kde 3.5.6 and kwin 3.5.5 [05:47] that doesn't make sense to me.... [05:47] lubos just said "r626522 (kdelibs). Oh, and it's no KWin bug. It's Kopete bug, basically." [05:49] Riddell: I'm willing to implement features that go back upstream too if you need me to. I'd just like to stick with C++ for a little while until I'm a little more comfortable with it. [05:49] Riddell: I do scripting languages all day long at work, I'm having a lot of fun playing with C++ ^_^ [05:50] popularity can go upstream. not sure if debian has changelogs available but they may well do [05:50] Righto. [05:50] Do you have a spec for this, or is there any more information on it/ [05:51] https://wiki.kubuntu.org/KubuntuFeistyAdeptChanges [05:51] but mostly, look at gnome-app-install and upgrade-tool and copy that :) [05:52] Ack, I didn't see it there. [05:52] That's what I get for only looking at use cases ;) [05:55] Riddell: how about the repo manager, will that be done too ? === Tonio_ can wait for 3.5.6 to come, he has so many things to test.... === apokryphos [n=francis@unaffiliated/apokryphos] has joined #kubuntu-devel [05:55] talking about wine, shouldn't we associate .exe files to it when installed ? [05:56] that would make sense in my opinion [05:56] Tonio_: should do, the gnome author said a couple weeks ago he was working on making it more frontend independent, not sure if that's available yet or not === poningru [n=poningru@n128-227-11-224.xlate.ufl.edu] has joined #kubuntu-devel [06:03] Riddell: I still don't think it's unreasonable to reinvent that wheel. The port is going to be painful. [06:03] Very painful. [06:03] At least from what I could see. [06:03] Especially since I couldn't get Qt Designer to import those glade files. [06:05] err, it won't import glade files === poningru [n=poningru@n128-227-11-224.xlate.ufl.edu] has joined #kubuntu-devel [06:05] they need to be remade [06:05] Yeah. [06:06] That leads me to believe that it could be considerably difficult to port that software-properties program. [06:06] It seems to me that it'd be easier to implement it in adept.

[08:13] no what is scary is the pasta they serve here at school [08:13] Another reason to be glad I dropped out of college ;) [08:14] haha [08:17] I'm not a big fan of academia. Seeking knowledge for knowledge's sake just seems kinda boring to me. [08:18] I'd much rather learn something in the course of solving a problem. [08:19] that is what both of my courses are today pretty much [08:19] That's cool. I know lots of folks who love school. I just never really did. [08:20] i definitely don't love it, but it is free, so I am going to try and learn some new stuff [08:20] Free makes a difference. [08:20] I wouldn't mind taking some courses, but I have no interested in taking courses that graduation requirements dictate. [08:21] ya, i had to take a couple of very basic programming courses at first which was nuts [08:21] The college I went to tried to get me to take an ethics course. I went to it for the first few weeks and found that their ethics were in grave conflict with mine. [08:22] same with a Linux course. Intro to Linux.
