ryanakcaIf so, and you want to test kontact, fire it up, click on Contacts, Add..., XML-RPC, and then configure it as following https://groupware.kubuntu.co.uk/~ryan/kontact.png (substitude ryanakca with 'mhb')03:08

mhbryanakca: nice!03:11
mhbryanakca: if I edit the contacts, will the edits get merged with the egroupware server?03:12
ryanakcayep03:12
ryanakcayou just have to hit the sync button when you're done (see the swirly blue icon)03:13
mhbryanakca: it would be nice to have a LP-confirmed email address first, then the eGroupware email03:13
ryanakcaYeah03:13
mhbryanakca: I can't find the sync button, though03:17
ryanakcamhb: under edit03:18
ryanakcathere's a card, to the right a blue circle, and to the right of the circle a pencil on paper?03:18

VaelenSo how does one go about getting involved with kubuntu or kde development in general?05:34
ryanakcawell, for Kubuntu, you can start out packaging, or writing documentation... or triaging bugs... I started out with translations.05:39
ryanakcaVaelen: https://wiki.kubuntu.org/HelpingKubuntu05:39
ryanakcayou could also answer questions on #ubuntu or #kubuntu05:40
ryanakcaVaelen: http://www.ubuntu.com/community/participate if you want to participate in Ubuntu as well05:40

=== ryanakca nods :)
Vaelenryanakca: What language did you work on translations for?05:45
ryanakcaVaelen: french05:49
VaelenAh, cool.  I'm a linguistics student, and I managed a translation project at IBM for a year or two, so I find that all very interesting.05:50
VaelenBut I don't speak any other languages well enough to translate anything into them.05:50

manchickenMan, adept has a lot of critics, but very few people willing to actually work on adept or something better.  That sort of thing just gets really old.03:03
\shmanchicken, adept is a monster03:07
=== ScottK considers apt something better and is happy.
manchicken\sh: I don't think it's anywhere near as bad as folks say.03:07
ScottKmanchicken: I think it's pretty decent in general, I just find it slow and so don't bother.03:08
manchickenI think it brings a lot of functionality to the table.03:08
ScottKAgreed.03:08
\shmanchicken, it's big, takes too long to load, and is written by a RedHat ,-)03:09
manchickenEither way, if people don't want adept anymore, I'm willing to work with something else.  I'm just getting bored with the rather consistent criticism from folks who won't do anything to help.03:09
\shmanchicken, no serious...the "takes too long to load" is right...and it has too much of functionality (IMHO)03:09
manchicken\sh: And I'm willing to look at something else :)03:09
\shmanchicken, idea was (even during montreals ubuntu meeting) to write something like update-manager for gtk and qt (just like ubiquity, a working backend, and two frontends)03:10
manchicken\sh: But I'm not willing to listen to the same criticism over and over again with no ideas on how to fix the problem.... especially on kubuntu-users.03:10
manchicken\sh: I think that's a good idea.03:10
manchicken\sh: Common code among the buntus makes sense to me.03:11
\shmanchicken, regarding a chat with mvo during UBZ it is not difficult...reading the update-manager code from mvo it's a mess right now, and needs some refactoring03:11
manchicken\sh: And I'd even be willing to help hack something like that.03:11

\shmanchicken, python-qt is simple...if you know c++ qt libs you know pyqt/pykde syntax03:13
manchickenNaw, I don't know python itself.03:13
manchickenShouldn't be hard though.03:13
manchickenRuby was simple, I've been hacking Perl forever, and I picked C++ back up in a weekend.03:13

=== Hobbsee seems to find *all* programming difficult.
Hobbseethen again, it probably doesnt help that i'm still doing the first language.03:14
manchickenHobbsee: Nonsense, you'd make an excellent hacker!03:14
manchickenHobbsee: It just takes a lot of boring sittin and figuring stuff out at first.  Very frustrating.03:14
Hobbseemanchicken: yeah, true.03:14
manchickenI remember when I first learned to hack.  I was about 8, and I only really stuck it out because my dad was helping me out.03:15
Hobbseeat 8.  i'm jealous.03:15
\shprogramming is easy...just start with: try to explain an idiot how a coffee machine works...from top to bottom or bottom to top...depends what style you like...so write this doc into pseudo code like "if idiot.listens():\t print "This is a coffee machine"03:15
Hobbseewe only *started* doing programming last year.03:15
manchickenStuff like that is always more fun when you've got someone else helping.03:15
manchickenHobbsee: I didn't wait for school to teach me.  I don't even really believe formal education will do me any good.03:16
\shnow replace "idiot" with "computer" and you developed your first program ,-)03:16
manchickenI don't do the "sit down, shut up, and pay attention" thing very well.03:16
Hobbseemanchicken: well, true.03:16
manchicken\sh: Nice03:16
=== Hobbsee does, to a reasonable extent.
Hobbseeof course, it'd probably help if i got off irc03:16
manchickenHobbsee: IRC does take up a lot of time.03:17
manchickenWe need to make catapult more like the free software windows program "launchy"03:17
manchickenkatapult does not handle multiple matches well.03:18
manchickenlaunchy has a much better way of handling those situations.03:18

Tonio_Riddell, Hobbsee: bonjour ;)03:41
Hobbseebonjour Tonio_03:41
alleeTonio_: hi!03:43
Tonio_allee: hey ;)03:43
alleeTonio_: with switched on BT.  kbt is showing up in systray :(03:43
Riddellisn't that good?03:43
Tonio_Riddell: well on kubuntu previous version, the icon was hidden, but I cannot do that now due to a bug in the systray hidding functionnality03:44
alleeTonio: IHMO yes. ;)03:44
Tonio_allee: well imho the icon should appear when a bluetooth key is present03:44
alleeTonio_: I would prefer to see BT in systray when the bt device is on/available03:45
Tonio_allee: and it should hide otherwise03:45
Tonio_allee: exactly03:45
Tonio_allee: but what about hotplug key detection ? does this work or not ?03:45
HobbseeTonio_: kdebluetooth is still broken, btw03:46
alleeTonio_: I've tried: switch on Mighty mouse with 'invisible' kbt in systray.  Nothing happened03:46
Tonio_Hobbsee: for updates ?03:46
HobbseeTonio_: yes03:46
HobbseeTonio_: see the bugs about it03:46
Tonio_Hobbsee: hum, should be fixed now03:47
alleeHobbsee: I could pair to my BT isdn device (after command sudo ciptool search).  I've got a PIN dialog and then I was paired03:47
Tonio_Hobbsee: last upload didn't reach the repos yet03:47
Tonio_Hobbsee: should be fixed now03:47
alleeah, Hobbsee talked about pkg not 'functionality' ;)03:48
HobbseeTonio_: ubuntu2 was the broken one03:48
Tonio_Hobbsee: I have it installed here, what is broken ? I don't understand03:48
Tonio_Hobbsee: lemme look03:48
HobbseeTonio_: doesnt upgrade.  check launchpad03:48
Tonio_Hobbsee: k03:49
alleeTonio_: reason why I would like to see kbt, when bt is turned on/plugin in is that  system settings module has 'zero' functionality compared to systray icon03:49
alleeTonio_: after you tried the bt system setting.  The systray icon shows up.  But that a more than confusing feature ;)03:50
Tonio_Hobbsee: hum, libkbluetooth0 should conflict/replaces the old version of kdebluetooth, and therefore avoid that problem, so I don't understand03:51
Tonio_Hobbsee: version 0ubuntu2 at least03:51
alleeTonio_: hciconfig | grep .    in try_exec should fix session startup, but I've no idea (yet) how to start kdebluetooth when bt device is turned on/plug in :(03:52
ryanakcahmm. Konqueror seems to be deadly slow... odd.03:52
Tonio_allee: same for me03:53
Tonio_allee: isn't that easier to just make kbluetooth autostart and only showing the icon when a device is inserted ?03:53
Tonio_Hobbsee: any idea concerning the dist-upgrade problem ?03:53
HobbseeTonio_: havent tried, tbh03:54
Tonio_Hobbsee: I don't understand how can that bug with the 0ubuntu2 version03:54
Tonio_Hobbsee: bug report are before I uploaded the new version03:54
HobbseeTonio_: right, but they do seem to refer to the newer version03:54
Hobbseei didnt get that problem, it seems03:54
alleeTonio_: looks like --dontforceshow  != --showonlyadeviceisavailable03:55
Tonio_Hobbsee: sure, but they refer to upload 0ubuntu1, latest did reach the repos tomorrow evening only03:55
Tonio_allee: sure, but as long as there are functions in the code to hide/show the icon and to detect if a device is available, I suspect that showing the icon dynamically shouldn't be that hard for a kde dev :)03:56
Tonio_allee: wold be interesting to ping _Stefans_ on that point as he seemed interested on working on kbt :)03:56
Tonio_w/wold/would03:56
HobbseeTonio_: oh, i must have misread them03:57
Tonio_Hobbsee: no pb, good thing you remind me to check that point :)04:00
alleeTonio_: I've asked on #kdebluetooth about 'why not change --dontforceshow'04:01
alleeTonio_: I'll ping him.  But will be mostly offline this weekend04:02
Tonio_allee: I'll try to ping him too :)04:02
alleeTonio_: just for your information.  I've tried to pair the Apple mighty mouse via the hid dialog -> error04:03

=== nixternal [n=nixterna@ubuntu/member/pdpc.active.nixternal] has joined #kubuntu-devel
Tonio_first : hidding doesn't hide, you have to stop and restart the app04:03
alleeTonio_: this worked before (asked for pin 0000) then as paired04:03
Tonio_allee: and then only the icon is hidden, but the space is still used in the tray04:03
Tonio_not the way adept does for example04:03
alleeTonio_: this allocated space but no icon seem to be fixed now04:04
Tonio_allee: hum, interesting, I didn't notice any regression on that point04:04

Riddelldunno, you'd have to look04:20
=== ryanakca can't see strigi on bugs.kde.org under products... would it be kdebase?

VaelenI apologize for coming back to an earlier thread and all, but I just got here. :)04:39
VaelenWhat sort of interface would this new KDE based apt wrapper have? (I mean, what are you looking for it to do, etc.)04:40
ScottKnixternal: Do you apt-get upgrade or apt-get dist-upgrade?04:40
kwwiilol, we received 1900+ wallpaper submissions for the kde4 contest :-)04:43
nixternalupgrade04:44
nixternalit actually does it either way04:45
nixternalkwwii: do you have a link to the wallpaper submissions yet?04:45
nixternalI have been waiting to check them out04:45
nixternallet me know if there are any cool beach wallpapers04:45
kwwiinixternal: nope, we are not going to make them public...only the winners04:45
kwwiioh, there are quite a few nice beach pics04:45
ryanakcashucks04:45
nixternalahh, that stinks04:45
nixternaldamn kwwii!! I want to see :D04:45
kwwii;-)04:46
kwwiimaybe after the contest is over or such04:46
nixternalthey need to all be uploaded to kde-look04:46
ryanakcahaha, that would take forever... unless they all go into a .tar.gz04:46
nixternalI have only found a handful of great beach pics that will scale correctly at 1200x80004:47

nixternalI am a little upset with my java instructor this semester. she is a games development instructor at the uni, and our main project will be to create a game04:49
Riddellthat sounds fun04:49
nixternalreally?04:49
ryanakcamake a MUD :)04:49
Riddellkwwii: wow, really?04:49
nixternaldude, I know absolutely nothing about games04:49
VaelenIt seems like most universities don't teach any useful Java, like junit or j2ee.  It's the same here at UT.04:50
kwwiiRiddell: yepp, it took me like 4 hours to sort through them to pic my 30 favorites04:50
ryanakcahehe04:50
nixternalVaelen: same here04:50
nixternalI used digiKam recently to sort through a ton of wallpapers I downloaded to see which ones I liked and which ones I didn't..it was nice, I could tag the ones I liked and then filter ont he tag04:51
ryanakcacool04:51
nixternalthis guy at school which I got him to almost switch 100% to Kubuntu, he uses the "we are gears" wallpaper that comes with KDE, but he uses a cool color scheme with it, and it looks really cool..never thought that was possible04:52
=== ryanakca nods, should get him to stick a screenshot somewheres
nixternalI will tell him to do that if I remember during the next class04:53
nixternalhe uses some off the wall colors for the gradient..I mean colors that would normally make you feel ill to your stomach, but it makes that wallpaper stand out nicely04:54
=== Vaelen needs a new computer so that he can turn on the kde4 3d effects.
nixternalargh, this annoying network issue is happening again..I thought it stopped04:55
nixternalVaelen: whatever you do, don't try to turn them on with an Intel vid card...04:56
VaelenYeah, too late. *laugh*04:56
nixternallol04:56
nixternalI did it this week at the LUG meeting, and it was painful to get back04:56
VaelenI even played with the settings and tried some stuff out.  It took /forever/.04:56
nixternalforever is an understatement04:56
VaelenMy next laptop will have an nvidia graphics card.04:57
