seb128ogra: no hurry, I'm looking at it because hwdb has a menu item to applications, system tools and we are supposed to have that category not used by default for menu simplication03:42
seb128I'm looking on where to move it03:42
Keybukpitti: I think it has something to do with the new toplogical sysfs model03:42
Keybuksome rule which never previously applied now applies03:42
seb128ogra: looks like pitti did that03:43
ograseb128, yep03:43
pittiKeybuk: I meant, is it really right that ATTRS{idVendor}=="0000" matches *any* vendor ID?03:43
pittiseb128: hm?03:43
ograseb128, i'm not keen to have it in control-center .... but thats my personal disliking of it sinc ethe change ...03:43
pittiah, read scrollback now03:43
seb128pitti: could we put the hwdb menu item somewhere else that System Tools? you unmask the menu category we try to not use for MenuSimplication03:43
Keybukpitti: define "any" -- that will match every idVendor from the device and all of its parents03:44
ograso if it belongs there put it there ...03:44
pittiogra, seb128: right, I wondered about hwdb-client being native as well, but I didn't change it when I touched it03:44
ograwell, native is fine ... just not with a -XubuntuX version :)03:44
seb128yeah, that was just a side note03:44
pittiKeybuk: ah, so something in the chain has idVendor=000003:44
Keybukpitti: perhaps03:45
Keybukyou probably want ATTR{} in those rules anyway03:45
Keybuknot ATTRS03:45
pittiKeybuk: thanks; seems we might actually want ATTR03:45
pittiheh03:45
Keybukthe "floppy" problem, I don't know about03:45
pittiseb128: I don't mind much where to put it03:45
Keybukthat might be a similar bug with the scsi checking bit03:45
pittiseb128: however, synaptic is also in that menu (apart from vmware)03:46
seb128ogra, pitti: is that something we want to run several time or once only?03:46
seb128pitti: yeah, I'm going to make mvo fix synaptic next :p03:46
pittiseb128: more or less just once, except if your hw changes03:46
pittiseb128: ah, I see :)03:46
seb128bah03:46
seb128that sucks to have a menu item for something that we run once03:46
mvoseb128: hu?03:47
seb128can't we have a notification area icon or something?03:47
seb128mvo: we try to get Applications, System Tools not listed by default for menu simplication03:47
seb128mvo: and you changing synaptic to be there apparently03:47
seb128changed03:47
ograseb128, we hav a notification03:47
ogratelling you to click on the menu entry03:47
seb128ogra: why do we need a menu item then?03:47
seb128bah03:47
seb128any problem with having a notification area icon to click on?03:48
mvoseb128: erh, so some apps will not be displayed anymore at all?03:48
ograit was specced like that 03:48
seb128mvo: ?03:48
pittiseb128: it's not what notifications are meant for03:48
seb128mvo: we used to have synaptic to system, administration03:48
pittiseb128: and the user might not want to go through this hassle as the very first thing he does with the computer03:48
seb128pitti: menu items are not meant for things that need to be runned once neither ;)03:48
mvoseb128: right and there is now this control-center that makes everything very hard to find IMHO03:48
pittiseb128: I have no problem with moving it to control-center, hardware section03:49
seb128mvo: could be try to adress that rather than having people doing random changes to workaround the problem?03:49
seb128pitti: that feel wrong if that's something you are likely to run once03:49
seb128it's going to be "in the way" and create extra confusion all the time03:49
cjwatsonmvo: it would just be like the debian-installer binary .changes03:49
mvoseb128: fair enough, I was not aware that system tools should go away03:49
seb128mvo: we did that for dapper ;)03:50
pittiseb128: most of the settings in that control-center aren't run more often either03:50
seb128pitti: I disagree, most are config tools03:50
pittiright :)03:50
cjwatsonmvo: you just do 'dpkg-distaddfile whatever.tar.gz dist-upgrader -' in debian/rules03:50
pittihow often do people change their screen resolution, language, or prefered fonts?03:51
seb128still, those are config dialog you might want to use03:51
seb128hwdb is of no use for an user03:51
pittiseb128: well, if that would be the case, then we should not install it at all03:51
seb128we install it because we want users to submit their config once03:51
pittipeople who buy new hardware or plug in another USB devices might even want to submit it again, etc.03:52
seb128not because they need the tool to do something03:52
mvocjwatson: interessting, thanks! I check this out next. what would be the scope? we certainly want to not include all the backports for kde in there? 03:52
Riddellmvo: oh, it doesn't need backports any more, I managed to get it to work with just a patch03:52
Riddellor 403:52
pittiseb128: as I said, I don't mind moving it somewhere else or redesigning the notification etc. I just want a clear and signed-off instruction document that tells me what to do :)03:52
=== pitti hugs seb128 and thanks him for thinking about usability
mvoRiddell: right, and those will go into -proposed?03:53
Riddellmvo: that's my plan03:53
mvoRiddell: cool! thanks03:53
seb128pitti: I'm going to move it to the hardware control-center category for now, I'm not happy with it though, I'll think about it03:53
=== seb128 hugs pitti back
seb128imho that should not be a menu item03:53
pittiseb128: btw, it's already there for me03:53
seb128maybe an option somewhere like popcon03:53
seb128pitti: weird, it's to applications, system tools on my box03:53
pittioh, no, that thing is hal-device-manager03:54
pittiseb128: right, I thought it was *also* in c-c, but that's only h-d-m (which allows you to run hwdb-client)03:54
mvoI'm not very happy with the way the control-center looks currently. its just overwelming how many icons are in there03:54
seb128ah ah03:54
seb128h-d-m allow you to run it03:54
seb128-> NoDisplay=true for hwdb-client ;)03:54
seb128no need several way to do the same thing03:54
seb128and it's not used often enough to justify a separate menu item03:55
pittiseb128: right, we just need people to find it somehow03:55
seb128h-d-m looks good enoguh if you have a notify popup pointing users there03:56

cjwatsonmvo: well, I was just thinking of reorganising the build process to be more like everything else in the archive, not a scope change at all03:58
mvook03:59
ograseb128, eeek03:59
seb128ogra: what?03:59
ograseb128, thats five clicks then instead of three04:00
seb128well04:00
seb128do you really things it makes sense to clutter the menu or shell all the time for something most users will run never or once?04:00
ograyou have to open control center (takes about a minute for me with a 4200 disk and lots of applets)04:00
ograthen you have to find h-d-m and click and wait another 15-20 secs 04:00
Riddelltfheen: new amarok upload which fixes fail to build, I'm good for herd with that in04:00
seb128we are trying to simply menus and shell to make them usable04:01
ogra*then* you can click hwdb and wait again04:01
seb128adding random item for things user need to run once is not the way to do that04:01
ogralatest at the second click you would hae lost me if i were a new user04:01
seb128yeah04:01
mvoc-c has (in the default install) ~50 entries04:02
seb128and as an user you would like to have that extra item in the way making your menu or shell longer and things harder to use?04:02
ograi agree that it would be fine to have a start button for it in the popup04:02
ograadditionally with a hint where to find it in h-d-m 04:02
ograin case i dont want to do it now 04:02
seb128ok, guys, stop focusing on the shell please04:02

seb128and we are likely to have menus by default for feisty04:03
ograYAY 04:03
seb128so the question is not how slow the shell is to start04:03
=== ogra gives seb128 a loong big hug
ogragreat decision04:03
bddebianHeya04:03
seb128try focusing on "do you think having that menu item is useful for an user"?04:03
seb128or is it going to make the menu longer and harder to use04:04
seb128for something users are likely to never look for out of the first time they are pointed to it?04:04
ograwell, without the shell the most slowing down factor is gone ...04:04
seb128(the shell remains available for those who want to use it BTW :p)04:04
ograbut a shortcut from the popup would still be nice though ... even if it breaks policy04:04
ogradoes it have an extra menu entry ? 04:05
seb128what has an extra menu entry? the shell? it has a menu item yes04:05

ograi think so ... there was a bug about it 04:07
seb128s/indication/or indication04:07
seb128ok04:07
ograpitti fixed it to say the right path ...04:07
seb128so changing the menu item category would be wrong04:07
seb128something else needs to be updated according to that04:07
ogranot if we fix hwdb alongside04:07
ograright04:07
seb128let's fix that after herd4 then04:08
pittiseb128: yes, in update-notifier04:08
ograyep, i'll make a note to change it with the versioning scheme 04:08
ograpitti, not in hwdb ? 04:08
pittiseb128: if we move the menu entry (or remove it), then we need to update the notification text; that's trivial, though04:08
pittiogra: no, the notification is in update-notifier04:09
seb128pitti: that can wait after herd404:09
pittiseb128: *nod*04:09
ograah04:09
seb128I'll probably note the hwdb item on the topics list for the meeting04:09
pittiseb128: right, thanks; it's changing a spec, so we should sign that off04:10
