Tonio_Riddell: confirmed after reboot12:35
Tonio_Riddell: adept_batch + qt debconf works12:35
Tonio_Riddell: I'm trying to find out what changes with adept_manager12:35
=== Hobbsee waves
Tonio_Hobbsee: can you confirm "kdesu adept_batch install postfix" uses debconf/qt for you ?12:39
Tonio_Hobbsee: ? :)12:40
HobbseeTonio_: debconf/qt?12:40
=== Hobbsee will have to wait for the upgrade to finish
Tonio_Hobbsee: I don't have to click on "details" to see the package configuration12:41
Tonio_Hobbsee: ah ok12:41
Hobbseeahhh12:41
Tonio_Hobbsee: only works with adept_batch here that's why I want someone to confirm I'm not crazy :)12:42
Hobbseeahhhh12:42
Tonio_Hobbsee: http://tonio.homelinux.org/temp/capture15.png12:44
Tonio_Hobbsee: you should see something like this :)12:44
Hobbseeneat :)12:44
manchickenWho is House on a Red Corner?12:45
manchickenheh12:45
Tonio_but............... it fails for a strange reason with the manager12:45
Tonio_manchicken: need your help on that point :)12:45
Tonio_manchicken: this is a pure major kubuntu issue :)12:45
manchickenWhat now?12:45
Tonio_why the hell does it fail with adept_manager....12:46
Tonio_manchicken: here is the point....12:46
Hobbseedefine failing12:46
manchickenWhat?  I think I missed the description of the item....12:46
Tonio_manchicken: the description isn't important, the WINDOW is :)12:46
HobbseeTonio_: define "failing"?  works fine here, or appears to12:46
manchickenI have no idea what you're talking about ^_^12:46
Tonio_Hobbsee: and with _manager ?12:46
Tonio_manchicken: okay let's make it simple12:47
manchickens/item/issue/12:47
Tonio_adept/apt configures the package12:47
HobbseeTonio_: what's the syntax?12:47
Tonio_and libadept configures debconf to use the kde frontend to it12:47
Hobbseeoh right, adept_manager as in, the main adept12:47
Tonio_adept_batch works and the debconf window you can see it the evidence of this12:47
Tonio_but with the manager, I get a xlib error12:48
Tonio_connection error to display 0:012:48
Tonio_both adept_manager and batch use libadept, so there is certainly a little difference in the code12:48
Tonio_Hobbsee: sudo apt-get --purge postfix12:48
manchickenAh.  I think Riddell was saying something about ICE authentication with that stuff....12:48
HobbseeTonio_: yeah, did taht :)12:48
manchickenI think I may be too stupid to help you there.12:48
Tonio_Hobbsee: then try the same installation with adept_manager12:49
manchickenThough xhost + may help.12:49
Tonio_manchicken: I think ICE has nothing to do with it12:49
alleemanchicken: argl!12:49
Hobbseewhich was "open adept_manager, then select postfix?" presumably?12:49
Hobbseehey allee12:49
alleehi Hobbsee12:49
Tonio_manchicken: if it was ICE, it wouldn't work with any of those12:49
Tonio_manchicken: the issue is in adept12:49
HobbseeTonio_: no, it's dying -d oesnt automatically show details12:49
Tonio_Hobbsee: yes please12:49
manchickenWell, if you're running adept as root, perhaps it's root that's trying to start a separate process as root while xhost is blocking it.12:49
Tonio_Hobbsee: okay so you can confirm the issue is in _manager code12:49
manchicken?12:49
manchickenMaybe?12:50
HobbseeTonio_: i'd say so12:50
manchickenIf you xhost + does it still happen?12:50
Tonio_manchicken: yeah but we're using sudo so that's a bit different12:50
Hobbseeit's brought up the non-qt version of debconf, it seems12:50
Tonio_manchicken: to make it simple :12:50
Tonio_adept_manager and adept_batch are using libadept12:50
Tonio_works with _batch12:50
Tonio_fails with _manager12:50
Tonio_so the issue is "probably" in _manager12:50
Tonio_not ICE/XAUTORITY or something12:51
Tonio_Hobbsee: yep same here :) so I think we can fix this12:51
manchickenWell, there are two things I can think if...12:51
HobbseeTonio_: neat :)12:51
Tonio_if the issue was with X persmissions, that wouldn't work with batch12:51
Tonio_manchicken: ah ? :)12:52
manchicken1) somehow it's not passing $DISPLAY along in the environment.  2) xhost is blocking the connection.12:52
Tonio_1) -> possible12:52
Tonio_2) would probably block adept_batch too no ?12:53
manchickenWell, IIRC, adept_batch is only being used for amarok.....12:53
Tonio_manchicken: yes, but I mean if it works with _batch, we can make it to work with _manager tracking the difference12:53
Tonio_it is obviously in the code12:54
manchickenI disagree.  I think it's magical pixie dust.  Second star to the right and straight on 'til morning.12:54
manchicken^_^12:54
Tonio_haha12:55
manchickenActually, I don't disagree at all.12:55
manchickenI just think I may be too lacking in clue to help you out here.12:55
manchicken^_^12:55
Tonio_manchicken: I'm serious, this is the n1 kubuntu bug for ages :)12:55
Tonio_I may ping mornfall eventually12:55
manchickenI'll be shifting my focus to bugs after feature freeze.12:55
manchickenOne thing I'm noticing... there's a directory called "libadept" and a directory called "adept"12:56
manchickenMost of what I've been doing is in "adept"12:56
manchickenI'm not sure (haven't looked honestly) what's up with libadept.12:57
Tonio_manchicken: yes "adept" is the lib01:00
manchickenThat's what I thought.01:00
manchickenlibadept seems like a duplicate.01:00
manchickenPerhaps an external interface.01:00
Tonio_dunno exactly, but we don't build it :)01:00
manchickenheh01:04
manchickenAre you accusing me of actually doing something constructive?  How dare you!01:04
manchickenheh01:04
manchickenI'll have you know that I merely stumble around in Emacs pretending to know what I'm doing, and you've just bought my clever rouse.01:04

Tonio_Riddell: I'm pretty sure the fix is a 2 lines patch, but how to fix it.... :)01:08
Riddellhi Hobbsee01:09
Tonio_    putenv( "QT_IM_MODULE=xim" );01:09
Tonio_that's in manager and not in batch..... can that be the cause ?01:10
Tonio_I don't think so but well... :)01:10
RiddellI doubt it very much01:10
Tonio_Riddell: I too :)01:10
Tonio_I'm looking at the env things defined first, cause manager may miss something01:10
Riddellyes, my thought too01:11

alleeRiddell: k01:48
Tonio_Riddell: sudo rm -rf /var/cache/dpkg/lock01:50
Tonio_sudo dpkg --configure -a01:50
Tonio_and that should be okay01:51
Tonio_Riddell: but better way is to fix adept_manager ^^01:51
Tonio_Riddell: sudo rm -rf /var/lib/dpkg/lock01:51
Tonio_sorry I'm too used to "cache" due to pbuilder hehe :)01:52
Tonio_allee: I'll have a look tomorrow and will upload01:52
Tonio_Riddell: if you want to make tests with adept_manager, try postfix instead of sun-java ;)01:56
Tonio_it doesn't break01:56
alleeTonio_: argl.  -doc misses a replaces kipi-plugins < 0.1.2-3ubuntu101:56

seaLnelet me put the package somewhere10:33
seaLneTonio_: http://geeksoc.org/~kd/k3b10:34

Tonio_okay I'll have a look at the full packaging10:38

seaLnewhat kind of changes? i'm not sure its good to change more than necessary from debian10:41

seaLneallee: can you explain? i'm not to sure what you mean10:42
seaLneand yes i noticed it seemed to belinking that broke but i wasn't sure what the difference could be between not building in pbuilder but fine outside10:43
_StefanS_about k3b, how do you guys solve the mp3 stuff that it needs ?10:44
_StefanS_I mean you can't bundle that with *ubuntu.. but it needs to have compiled support for it (I guess)10:44

Tonio_K3b -                                        no11:17
Tonio_K3b -     You are missing the libdvdread library11:17
Tonio_sealne: shouldn't we build with this ?11:18
Jucatoexcuse, just wondering if we're going to wait for KOffice 1.6.2 to fix the Krita-GIF bug or could it be made available sooner?11:19
seaLneTonio_: its in universe11:21
seaLnebut i did wonder if that might be the problem11:21
Tonio_seaLne: well we should do a MIR then :)11:21
seaLneexcept it said video11:21
Tonio_I've always wondered if it was possible to provide 2 versions of a package like this11:22
Tonio_the package in main, with main features only11:22
Tonio_and a package in universe/multiverse with all options activated....11:23
Tonio_it is sad not to be able to rip dvd's with k3b, honnestly11:23
_StefanS_Tonio_: the logout thing is coming along just fine !11:23
Tonio_same issue with kaffeine and the ripping functions for example11:23
Tonio__StefanS_: you ave 2 days !11:23
Tonio_on 02/08 -> feature freeze11:23
seaLnei have only ripped a dvd once in my life, is it that big a thing?11:24
_StefanS_Tonio_: I know - hopefully it will be done today !11:24
Tonio_seaLne: that's typically the kind of missing features that makes people stay on windows11:24
Tonio_k3b is a superb tool to rip dvd's, and on kde I don't know of another one11:25

Tonio_seaLne: I don't use a webcam, but how many people would switch to linux if webcam+IM was well supported ?11:25
_StefanS_Tonio_: I'm looking for a synonym for the "selected"-color for a widget to avoid hardcoding "white" for instance11:25
seaLneTonio_: i wasn't saying it wasn't potentially usefull just wasn't sure how usefull11:26
Tonio__StefanS_: no idea I must say :)11:26
Tonio_seaLne: consider it is the only good tool to rip a dvd11:26
_StefanS_Tonio_: hmm don't you think it would be bad to hardcode it ?11:26
Tonio__StefanS_: hum well if that's justa name....11:26
_StefanS_Tonio_: you cant be sure what the user has for "selected" color..11:26
_StefanS_Tonio_: yes I use "white" now11:27
Tonio_seaLne: when was the build failing ? by the end ? seems to work here with cdbs packaging11:27
_StefanS_Tonio_: however its not white as per se, but seems to be adapted anyway11:27
_StefanS_Tonio_: I'll use it for now.11:27
Tonio__StefanS_: I have plenty of french synonims :)11:27
Tonio_but in english.........11:27
seaLneTonio_: the video kioslave11:27
seaLnehmm actually interestingly the videodvd slave11:28
Tonio_seaLne: I'll propose a MIR for libdvdread11:28
seaLnek11:28
Tonio_or maybe a k3b-full package11:29
Tonio_proftpd package is done that way11:29
Tonio_several compilations with several configure options11:29
Tonio_that's something we should do for such a package11:29
seaLnecan your built package write a dvd?11:29
seaLneTonio_: what all did you change?11:30
seaLnenot that i expect sucessfully building in pbuilder would change the dvd thing11:30
Tonio_seaLne: I applied buildprep, and switched to cdbs11:30
seaLnecan i get the changes? i want to test11:31
seaLneTonio_: what was it you used the -dev flag for again? i wonder how nessesary it is due to the only showing devices with media in them now11:32
Tonio_seaLne: I just wanna be sure it builds and I will send you the all package :)11:33

_StefanS_Riddell & Tonio_: Could you check those two screenshots ? if they are ok, then I will start integrating the code into ksmserver.12:11
RiddellTonio_: he replied (I've bounced it to you) saying it's because it's a KUniqueApplication, but I did try and change it to KApplication12:11

Tonio_compile option ?12:12
Tonio__StefanS_: checking12:12
Tonio__StefanS_: put "end session for" as the window title and that's perfect for me12:13
Riddell_StefanS_: good with me12:13
Tonio_Riddell: I didn't receive the mail atm12:14
_StefanS_Tonio_: yes, but when I put it into kde's logout box, it doesnt have a title, so I'm not sure how we should do it.12:14
Tonio__StefanS_: you mean ?12:14
Tonio_I don't understand sory :)12:14
_StefanS_Tonio_: check you own logout box.. it doesn't have a titlebar12:15
Tonio_Riddell: are you testing the --nofork thing or kuniqueapp removal ? I can test the second thing12:15
Tonio__StefanS_: true indeed12:15
Tonio__StefanS_: maybe we should do the same way12:15
Tonio_window borders will not fit nicelly with our fade effect12:16

_StefanS_Tonio_: That was what I was supposed to mimic, so..12:16
_StefanS_Tonio_: Well I will try but implementations, and then we can see what fits best.12:17
_StefanS_but=both12:17
Tonio__StefanS_: yeah people know what they want to do, maybe that's not even needed12:17
_StefanS_Tonio_: oka. I'm leaving it out.12:17
Tonio_great12:17
Tonio__StefanS_: ping me when you want to test the patch in the package, we don't have much time to get it in12:17

Tonio_Riddell: I'll rebuild and test01:23

Tonio_this is the only thing I do01:25
RiddellTonio_: looks good01:25
Tonio_the only difference with your package is I use version 12 as a base01:25
Tonio_Riddell: maybe there is a difference I don't know.......01:25
=== Tonio_ rebuilds the package
Riddellthere's nothing in there to make a difference01:25
LureRiddell, Tonio_: but shouldn't we prevent running multiple instances now?01:25
Lurelike with manual dcop call or something?01:26
Lureprobably not as important as this bug we are fixing, but I would not like to see new bugs because two instances of adept are running in parallel01:27
RiddellLure: adept just complains and opens read-only01:27
seaLneLure: http://vwww.geeksoc.org/~kd/k3b/01:27

Tonio_Riddell: talking about the fix, how did you monitor the env variables passed to dpkg ?02:04
Tonio_Riddell: I wondered how you did this...02:05
Riddellah well02:05
RiddellI grepped for startProgram() which is what starts dpkg in konsole02:05

danimoHobbsee: do you know how to recover a system if apt and dpkg are gone, but the dpkg db in /var is still there?03:23
Hobbseedanimo: no, i cant say i've ever been sadistic enough to try.  or is that machoistic?03:23
danimono idea03:23
danimohe's just reinstall otherwise03:23
danimoHobbsee: but if he could force apt or dpkg to only reinstall all packages, that would maybe be easier03:24
Hobbseei mean, i wouldnt think you could *do* anything with the database, unless you downloaded a precompiled, unpacked dpkg somewhere03:24
danimosure03:24
Hobbseesuppose it wouldnt be that hard, if you could find someone on the same release/arch as you03:25
=== Hobbsee wonders if sudo works in that configuration
Hobbseeas in, if you could get to a root shell to copy things03:27
Hobbseemight have to chroot for that.03:27
danimoHobbsee: I was thinking recovery-boot-cd03:28
Hobbseedanimo: possible.  if you could get apt and dpkg alive, that'd help.  i think the DB might be more of a hindrance than help, as the system would think all those apps are installed03:29
Hobbseethen again, there's a --set-selections option in dpkg, i think, and a --get-selections - if you piped set... to a text file, then used the textfile to --get..., that might make it quicker03:30

mhbRiddell: hi05:10
mhbRiddell: I have a dilemma ... is it better to make the os-prober support in grubconfig available even though the patches in os-prober we need are not there yet?05:10
mhbRiddell: the grubconfig tool can work as a standalone tool, but the os-prober will enhance its functionality (the user would be able to install it through adept_batch)05:11
mhbRiddell: but we don't have the os-prober patches we need in yet05:12
mhbRiddell: and I fear they won't get in before FF05:12
mhb(feature freeze)05:12
Riddellmhb: we should get in what we can05:15
Riddellif it's missing a nice feature that's a shame but we can live with it05:15
mhbRiddell: the problem is: I can make os-prober installable through grubconfig even though it wouldn't help before the patches05:16
mhbRiddell: or I can disable the os-prober installing but I'm not sure if I'll be allowed to enable it once the patches get in05:16
sebasmhb: Does grubconfig consider the commented stuff that is used by update-grub to create a menu.lst?05:16
mhbsebas: yeah, that's a problem05:17
sebasOtherwise custom changes are overwritten anytime a kernel is updated or something that is supposed to go into the initrd.05:17
sebasHm, that is pretty serious.05:17
mhbsebas: it could change the update-grub configuration05:18
mhbsebas: but if the user changed the order of the menu entries, I fear update-grub will reset it again05:18
sebasYeah, but the order is of no significance, default $N is used for that.05:18
sebasIt doesn't make a difference if sth is first or hundredth in the list if another kernel is booted.05:19
mhbsebas: and I'm not sure if it's possible to put a non-update-grub menu entry between update-grub ones without trouble05:19
sebasNo, it's not possible.05:20
sebasYou have the section that is updated, and the section that is not.05:20
mhbsebas: update-grub often changed totally the order of the kernels for me (when I edited menu.lst by hand)05:20
sebasYeah, but it doesn't change the default kernel.05:21
sebasThe rest is not important in fact.05:21
mhbsebas: if you selected the last (non-automagic) OS to be the default and update-grub added new kernels, wouldn't that change the default one?05:23
sebasMight, but only if the number of installed kernels changed.05:24
=== sebas always uses the automatic part though.
=== sebas 's gotta run out now.
mhbsebas: sure05:25
mhbI get angry at update-grub sometimes for messing up my changes05:25
mhbfor "not-techy" people I usually leave just one or two entries (and remove the kernel name, to make it less confusing)05:26
mhband update-grub messes it all up05:26
mhbsebas: I'll make sure grubconfig doesn't do anything fatal. We can sort out the bugs during the bug-squashing phase.05:26

Simeworks on edgy.08:50
LureSime: strange...08:50
mhbSime: hi08:52
LureSime: what kind of FS?08:53
SimeFAT3208:53
Simemhb: hi08:53
LureSime: mine has two FAT (16 and 32) partitions08:53
mhbSime, sebas : I've talked to seele about the current state of grubconfig and she suggested it would be best to wait with its inclusion into Kubuntu until update-grub is less restrictive ... it currently forbids you to edit the Ubuntu kernels and change their order, which is what most people would want08:54
SimeI did an upgrade from edgy yesterday.08:54
Simemhb: what is update-grb exactly?08:54
Simemaybe the upgrade didn't work ok.08:54
mhbSime: it is a post-install script (I guess) which updates the menu.lst with the newest kernel or initrd once you update the system08:55
mhbSime: but it resets the order and names of the Ubuntu kernels you've had previously - it sets them all up again08:55
Simemhb: oh, that's a bummer then.08:56
SimeLure: kernel: [17225302.256000]  FAT: utf8 is not a recommended IO charset for FAT filesystems, filesystem will be case sensitive!08:56
mhbSime: so the best thing to do is modify it for Feisty+1 and include the grubconfig by then08:57
SimeLure: edgy doesn't say that. That seems to be the problem.08:57
mhbso that people are able to change the names& the order & which kernels they want08:57
LureSime: do you have something in /etc/fstab for /dev/sd[a-z] ?08:58
mhbSime: it doesn't mean I'll stop working on it :o) I'll be more than happy to help with guidance any way I can08:58

SimeLure: nope08:59
Simemhb: are you folowing KDE4 development much?09:00
mhbRiddell: as I stated earlier (^^), I agree with seele that the best thing to do now is to postpone grubconfig (for feisty+1,probably) until update-grub (the script that updates kernels,initrds, etc.) is less restrictive and allows people to change the kernel names, order etc.09:00
mhbSime: well, I'm not actively coding anything else, but I'm testing KDE4 from time to time09:01
mhbSime: guidance needs porting, right? Or do you suggest something else?09:02
Simemhb: ok, that's good. Sooner or later PyKDE 4 will be dumped in SVN, then we can start porting guidance to KDE 4.09:02
mhbSime: I'll be happy to help you once it does09:02

mhbSime: can you still answer a bit off-topic question?09:11
Simemhb: depends on how off-topic it is. ;-)09:11
mhbSime: well, a bit guidance-related09:12
mhbSime: I was checking the GNOME system tools the other day, and I've noticed they use a dbus interface called System Tools Backends09:12
mhbSime: I like the idea of using a common (stable) backend for the common tasks, so I wondered if some (future) guidance modules could be based on that09:14
Simemhb: I'm familiar with what you are talking about. The problem is...09:15
Simemhb: that those backends are not maintained very well, are buggy, and use an annoy and undocumented XML IPC mechanism to communicate with the frontend.09:16
sebasmhb: The trend is to do it the other way round.09:17
Simemhb: The machanism adds so much complexity and is so overengineered that is removes any benefit from have a separate backend in the first place.09:17
sebasGnome system tools is 10MB of Perl + XML crap, even the developers of it hate it.09:17
Simemhb: basically, it sucks.09:17
mhbtoo bad09:17
sebasIn Mountainview we discussed sharing guidance's backends09:17
Simemhb: it is a solution to a problem which we never had. => a need for separate backends.09:18
mhbSime: sometimes it helps to avoid backend trouble - but I see your point09:18
Simemhb: if you want separate "backends", write a class or python module that is separate from the GUI.09:18
Simemhb: that is what we have done.09:18
Simemhb: rather simple, easy to understand and debug. Concentrate on the hard work. -> gettings the backends to work / bug free.09:19
mhbSime: true09:19
mhbSime: having a common backend means even more people to fix bugs09:20
mhbSime: that's what I meant09:20
mhbsebas: sometimes the trend is to share backends - like telepathy for instance09:20
Simemhb: System tools only had one frontend, ever.09:20
Simemhb: yes, but system configuration backends often only have one GUI.09:21
Simemhb: application level backends/libraries are often different.09:21
=== bddebian [n=bdefrees@c-71-224-172-103.hsd1.pa.comcast.net] has joined #kubuntu-devel
Simemhb: What is interesting to note, is that Gnome System Tools are writen in Python (IIRC).09:22
bddebianHeya09:22
Simemhb: we can by default easily use each other's python modules. :-)09:22
mhbSime: which would be great09:22
mhbSime: I'm for backending stuff (sometimes), not for a specific backends ... if that system tools backends suck, nothing I can do about it09:23
mhbSime: because Ubuntu's and Kubuntu's GUI tools usually can share the backend, they don't need extra functionality the other doesn't need09:23
Simemhb: We've made it clear on at least 2 occassions, that the ubuntu Gnome team could use the config code in displayconfig for the Gnome display config tool.09:24
mhbSime: why didn't they use it?09:24
mhbSime: by the way, is there a policy for creating the guidance backends in a coherent way?09:27
mhbSime: using similar structures so that someone who wants to use those backends will be able to understand them faster?09:28
Simemhb: AFAIK, they haven't written a new display config tool for Gnome yet.09:31
Simemhb: There is nothing special really. Just put any backend code in its own file and avoid dependancies on Qt/KDE if possible.09:34
Simemhb: and do you best to keep the API clean/sane and documented.09:35
Simemhb: unixauthdb.py is probably a good example.09:35
mhbSime: I'll read that09:35
mhbSime: I was asking because grubconfig doesn't have a Ubuntu counterpart ... so someone might be interested in using the backend once it's done09:38
mhbSime: thanks for all the answers and your time09:39
Simemhb: no probs09:40

Simemhb: which functionality is missing? (As a matter of fact, I used the display util in Mandrake as the starting point for displayconfig).09:57
Simemhb: missing from guidance?09:57
mhbSime: samba09:57
mhbSime: at least, I can check what more09:57
Simemhb: true. Setting up shares would be good.09:58
mhbSime: and there is a need for that - Kubuntu lacks a good GUI for Samba (I guess you know that)09:58
Simemhb: have you seen a good UI for samba anywhere else?09:58

Simemhb: a proper Samba tool would be fairly complex, IMHO.10:03
Simemhb: it is something that might make more sense if it was on a context menu in Konq.10:03
mhbSime: true, but there are also some global configuration options that need to be set up10:05
mhbSime: so a Enable/Disable share in the context menu and a center where you can see what you've set up10:06
Simemhb: that is what makes it hard to make a good tool that Kubuntu's target end users can use.10:06
Simemhb: possibly.10:06
mhbSime: seele (the UI expert) said she could help with that10:07

fritsch_StefanS_: do we get this screen when pressing the power button?11:27
_StefanS_fritsch: hmm that would be up to kmilo i think11:27
_StefanS_anyone ?11:27
fritsch_StefanS_: i think you get this in ubuntu, when pressing this button?11:28
_StefanS_fritsch: yes. sorry I misunderstood11:28
_StefanS_fritsch: you mean the icon in the upper right on gnome11:29
_StefanS_fritsch: correct, its the same11:29
fritschmmmh, wait. iirc in ubuntu you could press the power button then there came this screen up, asking what to do11:29
Lurefritsch: I am working on this actually, but hard to do for multiple logged users11:29

_StefanS_Lure: thanks ;)11:29
Lurefritsch: if you want it to work, just change one number in /etc/acpi/powerbtn.sh11:30
Lure;-)11:30
Lurefritsch: search for 0 2 0 and replace it with 1 2 011:30
Lurethen press power button and it will work (if only one kde user is logged in)11:30
_StefanS_by the the way.. why isn't HIDD enabled by default in *ubuntu .. I would be cool to have bluetooth HID devices just work out of the box11:31
fritschLure: something like: w |grep xdm |cut -d or so could get all X sessions?11:31
Lurefritsch: problem it that with 1 2 0 dcop blocks and calls all sessions in sequence11:31
fritschhehe11:32
Lurefritsch: I can get foreground console with "fgconsole" and ps -ef shows which X server is running on that console11:32
Lurefritsch: but I do not know how to map X server with dcop server11:32
fritschLure: mmmh there was something in the suspend2 userui stuff11:33
fritschbut i am not really sure11:33
Lurefritsch: Riddell suggested that we would implement it only for single user and keep old behaviour if multiple users, but I do not like that idea (usability issue)11:33
fritschLure: but standard users are only logged in with one user at a moment?11:34
Lurefritsch: yep, this is why it is probably acceptable...11:34
Lurefritsch: I will talk with Riddell tommorow and push something in11:34
fritschit`s getting really cool this feisty release11:35
Lurefritsch: true that - lot's of new contributors help11:35
fritschcould be the first time of my linux live, that everything works out of the box11:35
fritschonly have to talk to the kernel guys, if thy could bring in lt_hotswap for hotswapping my cdrom drive11:36
=== fritsch <-> happy

_StefanS_Tonio_: I can switch between classic kde and the 'fancyUbuntuLogoutforKubuntu' (I know, its a great name). The buttons work fine also. Should have something for you soon11:50
Tonio__StefanS_: cool :)11:50
_StefanS_Tonio_: it was easier than I thought to have it go along with eachother :)11:50
mhb_StefanS_: screen? :o)11:51
mhb_StefanS_: (as in Can you post a screenshot, please?)11:51
_StefanS_mhb: didn't you see the one I posted before ?11:52
mhb_StefanS_: yes, but not the one where the buttons are fine :o)11:52
_StefanS_mhb: hehe well they "work" fine.. I will just adjust those cosmetic things now11:53
_StefanS_mhb: patience :)11:53
_StefanS_but I agree.. we could really need some kde icons for that dialog.. it looks like i'm running kde-gnome hybrid hehe11:54
_StefanS_hmm the icons should be something like this I think: http://enhance-it.dk/icons.png12:06
_StefanS_nice and shiny12:06
fritschgood night altogether12:07
