Hobbseemanchicken: the kde 3.5.6 for dapper one?12:23
manchickenyeah12:23
Hobbseeheh12:24
Hobbseefreeflying is building it, an;yway12:24
manchickenLet's just get out the ruler and figure out whose really is longer so that we can shut up about it and go on with life.12:24

claydohok I am really tired of the dapper/no kde 3.5.6 thread in kubuntu-users ml, it is bleeding over to KFN03:45
claydohI may explode03:45
claydohwhich is hard to do considering my sheer mass :)03:45
yuriyare people just complaining about not having packages, or what?03:48
claydohand then some :)03:50
claydohjust getting tiring as I made the mistake of following the whole email thread03:51
manchickenGoodness, how long is the apt-index-watch process going to run.03:57
manchickenYeah, it looks like a pissing contest with the disguise of software discussion.03:58
claydohya03:58
claydohbut it seems to have wound down03:59
manchickenOkay, so what's the purpose of apt-index-watch?04:01
manchickenThe service just won't stop.04:01
claydohdunno04:01
manchickenIt is impossible to hack with that process killing my machine.04:01
claydohhttp://packages.ubuntu.com/edgy/admin/apt-index-watcher04:03
claydoh:)04:03
manchickenRiddell said something that led me to believe I should move to feisty, but he advised me before to stick with edgy so I can continue hacking with minimal interruption.04:04
manchickenI'm so conflicted ;)04:04
claydohseems to be a common issue on my google search04:04

manchickenThey're all either running TCPA, non-free graphics, or non-free wifi.04:15
manchickenIs apt-index-watch actually necessary?04:22
yuriymanchicken: TCPA? as in TPM?04:25
manchickenYup.04:25
yuriymanchicken: since it's removed in feisty, probably not so much :P but i don't know what it does04:25
manchickentreacherous computing.04:25
yuriyyeah i kind of went with what i wanted rather than going for all Free for my laptop :-[04:26
manchickenWhat I want is what will work.04:27
yuriyand i assumed either all or none have tpm (don't know what the latest thing with that is), so it's not like i have a choice04:27
manchickenThe non-free stuff doesn't work.04:27
manchickenWell, I figure since Intel is the grand-daddy of these chips, if I buy only AMD procs (which I do anyway) I'll be free from TPM.04:28
manchickenProblem is, laptops with AMDs usually have non-free graphics cards.04:29
yuriywell as in i looked for a laptop with nvidia because it will work best. It's non-free, but it'll play games and run beryl. And i went with intel for battery life so i guess wrong choice freedomwise there too, and wireless intel is nonfree too :(04:29
manchickenYeah.04:29
manchickenI'm going to probably buy a custom built lappy next.  One built for free software.04:30
yuriyyou know of a place that makes such a thing?04:30
manchickenWas looking earlier... let me check history...04:32
yuriyradeon xpress is not supported by the radeon driver?04:34
manchickenhttp://www.linuxcertified.com/linux-laptop-lc2100.html04:34
manchickenNo.04:34
manchickenDon't bother with radeon xpress cards.04:34
manchickenTheir proprietary linux modules are slow as all hell.04:35
manchickenMight as well not have any accel at all.04:35
=== yuriy never tried open ati drivers
=== MrWGW [n=nondiscl@cpe-75-85-97-183.socal.res.rr.com] has joined #kubuntu-devel
MrWGWgood evening04:36
manchickenI use the free software ATI drivers.04:36
yuriyevening04:36
manchickenNo accel, but pretty well performing and stable.04:37
manchickenIf you have to get proprietary graphics, I would think nvidia would be the better one to snag since nvidia non-free drivers suck less, and it seems like there's a rather high-priority free software project for nvidia cards.04:41
yuriynow if only that money was actually of any use to them..04:46

manchickenYeah.05:01

manchickenI think the money may be for a legal warchest.05:01
manchickenMany countries still enforce unjust patent laws that allow people to sue others just for writing their own software.05:02
ajmitchah, rampant speculation05:02

manchickenI think it's only a matter of time.05:06
ajmitcha matter of developer time05:06

jdongmanchicken: that's the GPL and senselessly using up GB's of my space :D05:39
jdongI'm all 100% pro-GPL and all, but sometimes I find it silly....05:39
manchickenWhat now?05:39
jdonglike if I'm distributing a backport that's just dch -i'ed and otherwise unchanged from ubuntu sources, that i'd have to locally host the entire source package too05:40
manchickenYeah, but that's just what it takes to keep the freedom.05:40
manchickenYou don't have to have it available for download.05:41
manchickenYou only have to be able to provide verbatim source code upon request for up to 36 months.05:41
jdongmanchicken: heh well I was threatened for not having it in a APT source repo.....05:41
manchickenFor only the cost of media.05:41
manchickenBy who?05:41
manchickenNot the FSF.05:41
jdongI don't have the e-mails anymore05:41
jdongbut not FSF05:41
jdongvarious anti-Backports people05:41
manchickenThen who cares?05:41
jdongfinding a way to shut it down05:42
jdongback in the good ol Warty days05:42
jdongwell, IANAL but I get easily scared when I get legal threats :)05:42
manchickenTough titty for them.  GPL requires you to only provide verbatim source upon request for up to 36 months.05:42
jdongthat's how I understood it too05:42
manchickenIf you wanted to back it up to CDROM and take it off your repo there's nothing that says you can't.05:42
jdongthat's what I did05:43
jdongI had sources stored locally05:43
manchickenIt's definitely NICER to have it in a repo... but it's not required.05:43
jdongand if not, then debdiffs to launchpad diffgz's05:43
=== Hobbsee [n=Hobbsee@ubuntu/member/hobbsee] has joined #kubuntu-devel
jdongmanchicken: I did offer full dsc source packages for when I modified a package beyond its changelog05:43
manchickenYou do have to make sure it's verbatim source.05:43
manchickenEven if you didn't modify it.05:43
jdongwell, it's trivial to assemble into verbatim source upon request05:44
manchickenYeah.05:44
jdongbut I thought something wasn't right :)05:44
manchickenI also don't think anybody's going to get pissy with you if you're making a real good-faith effort to preserve the freedom.05:44
jdongbelieve me when I say the last thing I'd ever do is restrict the freedom and spirit of the GPL05:44
manchickenFSF cares about freedom.  Plain and simple.05:45
Hobbseehey all05:45
manchickenIf you get any more of that, let me know.  I'm sure Peter Brown would like to know that these threats are taking place.05:45
jdongyeah, I'll be sure to.05:45
jdongnowadays I'm much more informed about all of this05:45
jdongbackports was the first major contribution I tried to make to an open source project other than immense support in the form of forum participation05:45
jdongI was quite inexperienced at the time05:46
manchickenYeah, if you distribute software you really need to understand your obligations and rights.  Many people just distribute without thinking about it and that's when problems occur.05:46
manchickenThe nice thing is that FSF doesn't sue for money.  They sue for compliance.05:46
=== jdong has a manufacturer he is trying to get to release GPL'd source
jdongOlevia, the HDTV manufacturer05:47
jdongI recently looked at one of the firmware updates....05:47
jdongbefore just blindly loading it on05:48
jdongkinda of intrigued me when file informed me it was a ext2 loopback image05:48
jdongmounted it  and saw rootfs.img, vmlinuz, and initrd.gz05:48
jdongHMM :)05:48
manchickenOoh.  That's interesting.05:48
manchickenDemand source for sure.05:48
jdongso far unpacking the rootfs shows MIPS32 kernel 2.405:48
jdongand it's without a doubt Linux with GNU userland05:48
jdongso I've already contacted tech support requesting source code05:49
jdongit's been a week or two, but I'll give them a bit more response time05:49
jdongthen I might look into how other more aggressive methods work.05:49
manchickenContact FSF's compliance lab.05:49
jdongI will.05:51
jdongyay for Linux infiltrating the HDTV market05:51
jdongbut I'd love a look at the source05:51
jdong(oh yeah. the TV is entirely powered off random ATI chipsets and GPUs too)05:51
jdongthere are all kinds of ATI strings greppable in vmlinuz and they look nothing like firegl public interfaces05:52
jdongso.... yay for more source to get released :)05:52
manchickenYeah.05:52
manchickenMaybe find some ATI projects and provide them with that data.05:52
jdongyeah05:53
jdongand I want the source code to do some tweaking too...05:53
jdongI was quite unhappy with some aspects of UI responsiveness :)05:53
jdongbut hey, $399 for a 32" 1080i LCD HDTV... I can't complain05:53
jdong1366x768... heck makes a great monitor :)05:54

=== ScottK came to Kubuntu from opensuse.
HobbseeScottK: nice :)07:10
JucatoHobbsee: saw what kwwii was referring to (pink theme)?07:10
ScottKI tried 10.1 and it became quite clear that opensuse is at best a beta for SLES.07:10
ScottKNever again will I use a distro where the product I use isn't viewed as the organization's end product.07:11
=== Jucato always thought opensuse, like fedora (core?), were the "community" (a.k.a. testing ground) versions of their company's end product...

HobbseeJucato: pbuilder11:30
JucatoHobbsee: so that's the only/recommeded way? I mean, for example, in setting up a KDE development environment, you can use SVN to get source code and compile, so you can easily apply/make patches and revert to a previous (stable?) state11:34
HobbseeJucato: you can grab sources, and debdiff against the different diff.gz's to get the changes.11:35
Jucatooh ok :)11:35
HobbseeJucato: obviously, a .diff.gz is just a compressed diff, which you can then use patch to apply11:39
JucatoHobbsee: ok. thanks for the pointers. I'm going to read the link Lure gave. I'm under the impression that I'd have still have to build the package to test changes? or am I wrong? (no idea really, only have little experience with KDE)11:40
HobbseeJucato: yeah, you do.  you still do in kde, too11:41
Hobbseebtw, in bzr, you can branch off easier, i hear11:42
JucatoHobbsee: well, they don't "package". just patch -p0 < patch_file then make && make install the relevant app/module11:42
Jucatoheh bzr... need to learn that too...11:42
HobbseeJucato: exactly.11:42
Hobbseeso use patch, then debuild11:43
Jucatowonder how Mez handles it... both bzr and svn... must make him crazy at times :)11:43

Hobbseeyou only need to use a pbuilder if you're actually packaging the thing, and releasing and whatever, ie needing a clean system11:43
Jucatoyeah...11:44
JucatoI should have looked at the release schedule... I was planning on packaging kuickshow as my first packaging attempt/project... but again I failed to anticipate freezes... like I did in KDE...11:45

HobbseeJucato: main freeze is later11:46
JucatoHobbsee: it was removed since Dapper, because of a dependency on imlib. Riddell said he'd be willing to put it back if someone is willing to package/maintain it11:47

=== Jucato is also considering packaging kalternatives, for a graphical way to set Java and Firefox as defaults... but might be too much for just 2 use cases
=== Jucato prepares his 3 liner intro for the meeting...
=== Hobbsee hasnt heard of kalternatives
Jucatoyeah, it's relatively unknown11:51
Jucatoit's just that we currently don't have an easy way (although using update-alternatives is very easy) to set the default Java version or use Firefox as the default browser  for all (KDE, GNOME, GTK, etc) apps11:52
Hobbseeindeed11:52
Hobbseeand the setting in kcontrol only works for some people, adn tends to confuse11:53
Jucatoyeah... kcontrol only affects KDE apps... so it's quite confusing if they start using non-KDE apps and it would still launch Konqueror11:53
HobbseeJucato: *neat* :)11:53
Hobbseeyeah11:53
Jucatokalternatives is a kcontrol module. it's in trunk/kdeonbeta/kdedebian... heh but I'm getting far too ahead of myself... I can't even package yet lol11:55

manchickenheh05:34
manchickenIs it possible to have xubuntu installed along-side kubuntu?05:35
nixternalsure05:36
manchickenI wouldn't mind having it all installed.05:36
nixternalbut I don't like doing so as it clutters ~/ and you tend to share settings in between with like Firefox and such05:36
manchickenI tried installing edubuntu-desktop once... apt got mad at me.05:36
manchickenTilda is the **SWEETEST** thing ever.05:36
manchickenEven though it's GTK, I can forgive it.05:37
nixternalall I have running now is Kubuntu on most machines, Edubuntu on one, and gNewSense on my old laptop05:37
nixternalnow they have a KDE gNewSense so I will be redoing that machine05:37
manchickenI wouldn't mind checking out gnewsense, but I don't feel like running gnome.05:37
manchickenAlthough I now know that my lappy will work with all free drivers.05:37
manchickenI removed linux-restricted-* today.05:37
nixternalmanchicken: they have a KDE version of gNewSense now05:37
manchickenIt's still going.05:37
nixternalheh05:37
manchickenI still have to run linuxant driverloader for the broadcom though.05:38
manchickenWhat a PITA.05:38
nixternalthey just released the KDE version within the past week05:38
manchickenNice.05:38
nixternalya, I have to use NDISWrapper for my WiFi05:38
manchickenI hear they started gnewsense with unstable debian.05:38
manchickenndiswrapper hates me.05:38
nixternalmy other lappy though, I have an Orinoco card, so it is 100% free05:38
nixternaleven have gnash on it, which still has a bit to go05:38
nixternalonce they get YouTube working, I am on!05:39
manchickenI figured if I was going to have to use nonfree garbage I might as well grab one that works.  Dropped $20 on driverloader and it just freakin' works.05:39
nixternaleverything else I have tested seems to work OK05:39
manchickengnash seems to lock up alsa...05:39
nixternalI haven't had that problem05:39
manchickenI have.05:39
manchickenPerhaps it's just this crappy ATI sound card.05:40
nixternalsee, the reason I chose this Compaq laptop was price and Intel chipset05:40
manchickenTell you the truth, I will *never* buy another HP again.05:40
nixternalI hate Intel processors, but you can't get an AMD system w/o NVidia or ATI garbage05:40
manchickenThat's true.05:40
=== nixternal used to work for them, so I feel safe with them
manchickenI've noticed that myself.05:40
manchickenMy next lappy will probably be from linuxcertified05:41
nixternalMatrox is Free correct?05:41
manchickenYeah.05:41
nixternalok, I am building a 64-bit system and will go with the Matrox card then05:41

mhbI noticed even though I switch from Sans Serif to DejaVu Sans in systemsettings, some apps keep the Sans Serif font08:59
mhbmost notably Kopete and Konqueror08:59
ScottKHistorically (as I understand it) Kmail shipped without S/MIME enabled because gpgsm was in Universe.  Now that it's in Main, would it be reasonable to install it with Kmail by default?  Getting S/MIME working has historically been painful (I never suceeded in Dapper and didn't try Edgy yet).  I'd like to try and get it working for Feisty.09:02
ScottKIf this sounds reasonable, I'll work on patches...09:02
mhbScottK: sounds like a meeting agenda point, IMHO :o)09:03
ScottKOK.  What meeting?09:03
=== ScottK is not usually good with process stuff.
mhbScottK: see /topic09:03
ScottKAh.09:03
=== ScottK is also not very good about reading the topic. Thanks.
Luremhb: hardly we can claim good maintenance in debian if they are at beta109:04
mhbLure: you're probably right. That is why it is a draft :o)09:05
Luremhb: otherwise it looks ok09:05
=== mhb is not experienced with MIRs
seaLneLure: what were you planning on talking about k3b tonight?  i've been working on it09:06
Luremhb: not that I am relevant ;-) I have never wrote MIR - Tonio_ or Riddell are better to review it09:06
LureseaLne: great - just wanted to know if it is on radar screen for feisty inclusion09:07
LureseaLne: feature freeze is in 10 days....09:07
seaLneunfortunatly i can't make the meeting tonight09:07
mhbLure: you're relevant enough for me :o) I guess there will be some more commenting for that draft ... we'll see later. Thanks for the comments.09:07

=== toma is now known as toma_
LureseaLne: no problem, just that we know hom to ping about progress...09:07
seaLnethe patches break at each rc, quite a lot is changing still09:08
ScottKmhb: I can't make the meeting tonight.09:08
LureseaLne: I think rc5 is well for inclusion as it has cdrkit support (which feisty switched to)09:08
LureScottK: would that be just Build-Depends change?09:08
seaLneyeah wodim has been causing problems09:08
ScottKLure: So far as I can tell.09:08
seaLnein a k3b breakage rather than bad way09:09
=== ScottK wants to get all the way through getting it to work before I know for sure.
LureScottK: you shoudl talk with Hobbsee though - afair she was pushing encryption support in kmail09:09
ScottKActually, I think it's an install depends too.09:09
ScottKOK09:09
LureScottK: probably09:09
ScottKLure: Thanks.  I'll talk to her next time I see her here.09:10
ScottKIt turns out my [username] /.gnupg directory is owned by root on my Feisty install.  If it's just me, I'll just fix it, but I'd appreciate it if others would look and see if it's something more general I need to file a bug about.09:13
RiddellScottK: what needs done to get s/mime by default?09:14
Riddellmhb: you say it uses three different types of packaging09:15
ScottKRiddell: At the very least install gpgsm09:15
ScottKAm still working through it.09:15
mhbRiddell: sorry :o) I'm not a packager so I didn't change the packaging-related information...09:16
mhbwill Hobbsee make it to the meeting?09:19

ScottKRiddell: S/MIME gets more complicated, but afaict it's all packaging.  We'll also need Kleopatra and to deal with Bug #42086.  I think it's all doable and I'll do the work if there's support for including it.09:26

manchickenAh.09:35
manchickenI'm going to try to get the changelog stuff into adept before feature-freeze, and then I'll clean the bug I have and any others I have open.09:37
manchickenI've been looking at adept and some areas certainly look easier than others.09:38
Riddellyep, that's the way to do it, throw it in before feature freeze and fix after09:38
manchicken(for qt4 porting)09:38
Riddellmm, yes, I'm scared of that too09:38
manchickenI don't think it'll be too hard.09:38

manchickenNot hard, just tedious.09:39
Riddellwe'll need to sync up with mornfall before that happens anyway09:39
manchickenYeah, but it didn't look like they'd removed a lot, but rather moved it into different things.09:39
manchickenYeah, he gave me a link to a branch he had.09:39
manchickenIs he working towards getting things into adept for feature freeze too, or is he just downstream?09:40
manchickenStill not sure how that's working.09:40
Riddellhe's upstream, and he's not working to ubuntu schedule any more09:41
Riddellwhich is why we're working on the 2.1 branch and he's working on a new version09:42
manchickenOkie dokie.09:43
manchickenSo do you want me to try to get his changes into adept before feature-freeze if he's ready for that?09:43
Riddellno09:44
Riddellhe's working on a whole new version, we'll pick it up when it gets released09:44
Riddellso it won't get in for feisty, unless he happens to release it in the next 10 days09:45
manchickenAh.09:45

ScottKRiddell: It looks like the only install dependency that's needed for Kmail to do S/MIME by default is kleopatra.  Everything else will get pulled in by that.10:40
=== ScottK still working on getting it properly configured and working though.
ScottKI have S/MIME config files that worked with KDE 3.5.1 on opensuse, but they don't work here, so I need to investigate more.10:41
ScottKI guess that would be gnugp config files...10:42
gnomefreakScottK: cant use ubuntus gnupg in opensuse either10:43
gnomefreak~/.gnupg10:43
gnomefreakand it sucks10:43
ScottKOK.10:43
ScottKWhich, ours, there's or the fact that they aren't compatible?10:43
ScottKthat would be their's...10:44
gnomefreaki tried to set tb to sign mail and it wouldnt let me use the ~/.gnupg from ubutnu10:44
Riddellhmm, 2227k, might be able to squeeze it in10:44
=== gnomefreak didnt want to make another key for opensuse
RiddellScottK: but does it actually need kleopatra?  that's only for managing keys10:44
ScottKI'll investigate that too.10:45
ScottKI know I need it because I work with people that use non-standard CA certs.10:45

ScottKRiddell: It looks like gpgsm + gnupg-agent are enough to get Kmail to believe it can do S/MIME.  Together with dependencies they are 717kb (512kb + 205kb) of additional archives (I assume that's the size constraint you worry about).  Once I get it working, I'll report back for sure...11:06
