nixternalw/o a doubt my favorite carribean spot04:13
nixternalu be jammin'04:13
jjesseJucato: so it takes awhile for a cold boot? :)04:13
Jucatojjesse: longer than nixternal's vista04:14
Jucato:)04:14
nixternalmy vista is broke04:14
jjessewow i heard he booted that up friday and it is still working on it :)04:14
Jucatoow :(04:14
jjessemy vista works better then my ubuntu sometims04:14
Jucatomore broken than usual?04:14
nixternalJucato: I formatted it and put Debian, Kubuntu, and Foresight on it04:15
nixternalgave the DVD to my dad04:15
Jucato:)04:15
Jucatothat's illegal right? :P04:15
nixternalit really annoyed me, and I figured 500GBs for Linux is better than 80GB for Windows04:16
nixternalJucato: yup, but do I care?04:16
Jucatoof course not. I don't either :P04:16
nixternalI think it is illegal just to open the box04:16
* Jucato wonders if it's illegal to just talk to nixternal...04:16
nixternalspeaking of vista...did you all see the "Ubuntu Still Sucks" post on InfoWorld?04:17
Jucatonixternal: btw, were you around at the Q&A last night (this morning?)?04:17
nixternalI wrote the CEO telling him to stop the idiots from posting04:17
nixternalJucato: I was afk all day04:17
Jucatonixternal: then this is for you :) http://rafb.net/p/BQrMKc19.html04:17
Jucatoare you handling tomorrow's (later?) Kubuntu session? or Tonio?04:18
jjessenixternal:  is04:19
nixternaldamn, you and Hobbsee pwnd him04:19
nixternalI think Tonio is04:19
nixternalbut I will be around hopefully just in case04:19
Jucatowant me to ask the million peso question again? :D04:19
nixternalno04:19
nixternal:)04:20
jjessenixternal:  didn't i read on your blog that you were doing a talk?04:20
nixternalI did one yesterday04:20
Jucatojjesse: he did.04:20
DaSkreechnixternal: You came here?04:20
Jucatoand I missed it :(04:20
nixternalone possibly tomorrow if Tonio doesn't show, and then the Documentation one on Saturday04:20
nixternalDaSkreech: many a times04:20
* jjesse is at in-laws on saturday and will miss it04:20
DaSkreechUbuntu still sucks btw :)04:20
nixternalhahaha04:21
jjessehow crazy is this, sunday morning i'm driving home from detroit, packing for boston and then flying grand rapids -> detroit -> boston :(04:21
DaSkreechnixternal: damn you Why didn't you tell me?!04:21
nixternaldidn't know you then?04:21
jjessewhat yoda?04:21
Jucatoyoda?04:21
nixternalbeen to Montego a few times, Negril a few times, and Ocho Rios one time04:21
jjessenixternal sounded like yoda04:21
nixternalhahaha04:22
DaSkreechJucato: didn't get the one as to why he installed Kubuntu on his desktop?04:22
Jucatoyeah forgot to...04:22
* Jucato looks at his logs04:22
DaSkreechbasically it's cause the rest of his family likes the iwndows look and he just needs the shell so he doesn't have to look at gui much04:22
DaSkreechhe was answering HUGE numbers of questions though04:23
Jucatooh yeah04:23
Jucato<sabdfl>i have other folks at home who are used to windows, and it's a bit more similar04:25
jjessedang i missed that part04:25
DaSkreechI should reread that04:25
DaSkreech he answered something about games that I missed04:26
Jucato<sabdfl>also, i wanted to be familiar with both04:26
* jjesse bed04:26
Jucato<sabdfl>and for development purposes, i just need a shell04:26
Jucato<sabdfl>and vim, of course :-)04:26
JucatoI didn't understand that last 2 though..04:27
DaSkreechhe doesn't need the interface so having it doesn't bother him04:30
Jucatothat's.... hm....04:30
DaSkreechI would assume that he knows Mez so he couldn't think that Mez was _accusing_ him of using Kubuntu04:30
DaSkreechbut the answer sure comes off sounding like that04:30
* Jucato will take early lunch to cool off...04:31
DaSkreechIt's hot?04:31
geniiHmm. sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart when firefox is working on getting the index.html immediately black-screens my box with capslock/scrolllock flashing.04:43
geniiEvery time04:43
nixternalwow, that is a new one04:43
geniisearching launchpad to see if it's known04:44
nixternalhttp://weblog.infoworld.com/enterprisedesktop/04:45
nixternalthere is some good bathroom reading04:45
nixternalthis is my favorite comment, and it is in one of his microshaft posts04:50
nixternalYes, it's really hard to be productive with Ubuntu, specially because it offers you the option of working with four different desktops at the same time, because of the eye candy effects from Compiz Fusion, because of the indexed search it offers... Yes, I agree with you, Ubuntu is horrible, and working with Vista is like being in heaven! lol04:50
nixternalpwnd04:50
DaSkreech ah05:03
DaSkreechdesktops05:03
DaSkreechAs in workspaces05:03
DaSkreechI was thinking ok. One X server with Gnome one with KDe one iwth Xfce ... umm one with Education?05:03
nixternalheh, yes workspace05:05
nixternals05:05
nixternalat our release party this weekend, we stuck a 7.10 CD into one of the schools computers, an older Gateway, Celeron 2.0ghz I think...which XP was dead slow on05:05
nixternalwell some of the guys started messing with compiz, and had like between 30 and 50 workspaces setup05:06
nixternalthey just sat there and spun the cube to where it looked like a circle spinning, and never once did the computer slow down or crash...that totally impressed me and everyone there05:06
nixternalI will admit, the default setup for Compiz in Ubuntu is perfect05:07
nixternalI would definitely vote on having it in our next release of Kubuntu05:07
* DaSkreech grumbles05:12
* DaSkreech kicks stupid compiz05:13
DaSkreechI gues it will be useful for the kubuntu-d3sktop package05:21
Jucatonixternal: we'd have to make sure that we have a workable Compiz setup on KDE... specially when it comes to getting Compiz and Kicker to work together properly05:35
yuriykicker and pager05:35
Jucatoyep those 205:35
Jucatovirtual desktops05:35
yuriyand i feel like you're losing something with using compiz instead of kwin05:35
yuriythere are just all these little things that kwin does nicely05:36
yuriy(changing resolutions not being one of them... )05:36
Jucatoconsidering kwin is made specially for kde, not surprising... I just wish Compiz made sure that worked :)05:37
yuriyJucato: are you coming to UDS and/or FOSScamp?05:39
Jucatoneither05:39
DaSkreechWasn't metacity made just for gnome?05:40
nixternalJucato and I are holding out until we get our paychecks!05:40
nixternalhahahahaha05:40
* DaSkreech hats Kopete :-(05:40
Jucatohahah05:40
nixternalcheck out OpenBox05:40
nixternalit is pretty slick, for both Gnome and KDE05:40
DaSkreechYeah I know there are loads of window managers05:40
DaSkreechBefore KDE thats' all there was05:40
nixternalnot true05:41
JucatoCDE ftw! :D05:41
nixternalhaha yup05:41
DaSkreechThere was a CDE for Linux?05:41
DaSkreechcan I nuke Kopete? >-(05:42
DaSkreechI changed my Font colour and now I can't change it back05:42
nixternalholy smokes, check out XPDE05:42
Jucatohahaha05:43
Jucatothat thing again? hasn't it died a horrible death yet?05:43
nixternalI have to admit, that is a pretty good idea in some use cases05:43
geniiDaSkreech: Just rm ~/.kde/share/apps/kopete        then open it again05:49
DaSkreechWhy can't I set it back?05:49
geniiDaSkreech: close the app before you rm that file05:49
DaSkreechI have every colour setting to black and it's still white05:50
geniiDaSkreech: I don't know why it won't let you set it back from inside kopete. But instructions given will return it to factory settings05:51
* DaSkreech does mv05:51
geniiDaSkreech: Did you hit f5 key after you made changes? Could be screen did not refresh05:52
DaSkreech.o0(Nope that made it worse)05:54
geniiDaSkreech: Make some other change which should appear as obviously changed then try f5 again to see if it takes05:55
DaSkreechEverything chnges except the font05:57
nixternaloh wow, Kubuntu LiveCD for Gutsy, the first ever distro to work with my 21" widescreen monitor out of the box05:58
DaSkreechI guess it's time to install pidgin05:59
yuriyDaSkreech: that's the only program where i still prefer the gtk alternative06:00
Jucatoyay kubuntu?06:00
Jucato:)06:00
DaSkreechYeah I keep giving Kopete one more chance06:00
yuriyunfortunately it didn't get much love for 4.006:00
DaSkreechI think it's dead to me till It grows up to Qt406:00
DaSkreechI know06:00
PitabredKopete has recently stopped working with MSN, dumping core on me when I try to connect to my account06:00
DaSkreechBut I really can't be bothered to find out why changing the font oclour changes any other random setting except the font06:01
JucatoPitabred: known bug, fix committed (afaik)06:01
PitabredAhhh.  I haven't seen the update come through, unless it was in the latest kdelibs update06:01
PitabredI haven't tried reconnecting to MSN since then06:01
PitabredAnywho, I'm gone.  Thanks, Jucato06:01
Jucatoit was06:02
Jucato(should be)06:02
DaSkreechOk06:04
DaSkreechapparently people on the other side see black now even though I'm still white on white06:04
DaSkreechGuess I'll just type more carefully06:04
nixternalword has it that Foresight will release a beta of their KDE distro by the end of this week06:07
Jucatokool...06:08
* Jucato wonders what it looks like.. green too? :D06:08
nixternalmore than likely06:08
nixternalI just asked their devs why it has been so hush hush with poor documentation thus far06:08
Jucatobtw, just saw the new packaging guide wiki.... haven't really read much yet, but looks nice so far... glad it's being showed some loving love :)06:10
DaSkreechAnyone recall what the proposal for grumpy was?06:12
Jucatoiirc sabdfl answered it with something like the PPA06:13
DaSkreechHe said the PPA would be the a good start for implementing grumpy06:14
DaSkreech I guess grumpy == Sid06:14
JucatoI took it to mean that PPA is practically what Grumpy is06:15
Jucato<sabdfl>[for those not in the know, Grumpy is about building daily packages from upstream]06:15
nixternalDaSkreech: similar to sid, yes06:15
nixternalit has been vaporware though for like 2 years hasn't it?06:15
DaSkreechYeah06:15
DaSkreechI guess PPAs are the solution06:15
DaSkreechDoesn't Suse already have something like that?06:15
nixternaldunno06:16
Jucatoyeah.06:16
Jucatobuild-something06:16
geniinixternal: Interestingly I have an IBM p200 monitor which i made a homemade adapter to from Sun to DVI and Gutsy saw it right off06:16
nixternaloh ya, that thing can build a package for almost any distro06:16
Jucatoit's also what binner is using to build his KDE 4 Live CD's...06:17
Jucatobuild-dep? bwahahah06:17
nixternalI have tried all of the latest releases on this machine, openSUSE, Fedora, PCLOS, and then some...not one of them configured it correctly, and the easiest one to configure was PCLOS06:17
JucatoBuild Service06:18
Jucatowhich you hate the most right?06:18
nixternalbui ya06:18
nixternalhehe06:18
nixternalJucato: ya06:18
JucatoI've yet to come across a distro that detected and configured everything perfectly for my desktop or my laptop...06:18
nixternalthe reason I hate it, is because it does such a huge injustice the free software, and because it is a turd in speed compared to anything06:18
JucatoI'm waiting for my gusty cd to install it on the laptop06:18
DaSkreech!info smolt06:19
ubotuPackage smolt does not exist in gutsy06:19
DaSkreech!info smolt hardy06:19
nixternalthe *buntu's work fine with my lappy06:19
ubotuPackage smolt does not exist in hardy06:19
nixternalmost distros do06:19
DaSkreechdamn06:19
DaSkreechnixternal: gobuntu!06:19
nixternalwhat is it? if it is good and viable I will install it06:19
nixternalGobuntu needs work06:19
Jucatonixternal: in Feisty, always on a new install, the full touchpad functions don't work. I have to run dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg06:19
Jucatoafter that, it works fine06:20
DaSkreechWhat is what nixternal?06:20
nixternalsmolt06:20
Jucatohardware database thingy06:20
nixternalahh, Fedora's thing...ya06:20
Jucatohttps://hosted.fedoraproject.org/projects/smolt/06:20
Jucatoopensuse on the other hand, does the touchpad perfectly, but never detects the correct resolution for my laptop... 10.2 and 10.306:21
DaSkreechIt looks great06:21
DaSkreechandit's a perfect base for Knoware06:21
Jucatoinfoware...06:21
Jucatoknoware sounds like a badly-named KDE app :)06:22
Jucatoyou know, like knowit? :D06:22
DaSkreechIt is :)06:22
DaSkreechhttp://developer.kde.org/summerofcode/knoware.html06:23
Jucatoah06:23
Jucatoknoware sounds like a badly-named KDE app :)06:23
nixternalinteresting information though06:28
nixternalI would love to see the source of how they are using the inductive logic06:28
nixternalthat is hard stuff06:28
* genii sips a nutrition shake and ponders seduc....er inductive logic06:51
DaSkreechOk06:51
DaSkreechthat's the most backward set of logic I've ever seen06:52
DaSkreechKDEvs Gnome discussion06:52
DaSkreechWhich devolves into I don't like how they name apps why do they have so many Ks?06:52
DaSkreechAnd someone says how much they love Open source since KDE4 is going to run on Windows06:52
DaSkreech he has a Mac cause one day they will be a near fully open platform06:53
DaSkreech???????????????????06:53
geniiX ran on windows for a long time now06:53
DaSkreechYeah cygwin06:53
DaSkreechbut Mac.. a ptotential open platform?06:53
geniino06:53
geniinot cygwin06:54
DaSkreechhow the heck did he come to that conclusion as a reason to use macs?06:54
geniiXming for example06:54
geniiWell, Apple has promise. They DID make all MacOS under 8 free06:55
geniiThis CUPS thing tho I dunno06:55
DaSkreechI can get the source for MacOS 8?06:56
geniifree, not open sourced06:56
geniiYou can download up to macos 7.5.5 from Apple without cost06:56
geniiI use it on Basilisk2 emulator06:56
DaSkreechhe said open06:56
DaSkreechIn anycase it just occured to me that sabdfl is right06:57
geniiI said they had promise. I didn't say they opensourced anything yet :)06:57
DaSkreech CEOs have nothing on open source project managers06:57
DaSkreechHow is that promise?06:57
DaSkreechFree as in beer is still just free beer06:58
DaSkreechwhich as we know is graet for upbuliding and making great progressive strides06:58
geniiHas MSFT made even Win 3.1 free? No06:59
DaSkreechThat still means that MS is giving out soda and apple is giving out beer06:59
DaSkreech none of them have at all looked at speech06:59
DaSkreechnixternal: installed Fedora?07:00
genii@time toronto07:01
ubotuCurrent time in America/Toronto: October 25 2007, 02:01:08 - Next meeting: Kernel Team in 5 days07:01
nixternalgave it a shot, yes07:01
DaSkreechnixternal: how many CDs does it take up?07:01
geniiBleh. alarm in 4.5 hours07:01
* Jucato wonders why nixternal is still awake...07:01
nixternal1am07:01
nixternalgonna crash here in a few..I was tweaking my new system07:01
geniiGood night all, I gotta go <passes out coffee>07:02
DaSkreech1am here too07:02
DaSkreechI wonder how big Debian is07:07
Jucatohow big? depends on what you download07:08
DaSkreechBinaries07:10
JucatoI mean, 1 CD? 1 DVD? all?07:12
DaSkreechAll of it07:24
Jucato5 DVD's afaik07:24
DaSkreechIt was 23 last time I looked07:36
Jucatomaybe 23 CD's?07:37
* Jucato shrugs07:37
DaSkreechOh wait that might have been it07:38
DaSkreechI was trying to figure out where I went wrong :)07:38
DaSkreechok still smaller than A BluRay07:39
Jucatoheh07:39
* Jucato heads for an afternoon nap07:39
DaSkreechGNOME sucks, just because Ubuntu uses it doesn't make it the most used. Yes Ubuntu is good but wait until a native KDE4 version of Kubuntu and then you will cry at how awesome it is.07:45
* DaSkreech follows Jucato's lead08:00
doc__hi there10:21
Tonio_hi11:03
Jucatohi Tonio_! you taking the Kubuntu session later?11:05
Tonio_Jucato: argh !11:06
Jucatobetter poke nixternal if you ain't ready :P11:06
Tonio_Jucato: hum I was supposed to....11:06
Jucatohahah11:06
Tonio_Jucato: well the point is that I have to go in a meeting for work11:06
Tonio_I just learned about that11:06
Tonio_nixternal: ping ? ;)11:06
Jucatobwahahah :)11:07
Tonio_Jucato: there is a kin of emergency and I have to be there, I can't just say no to this....;11:07
Tonio_Jucato: it's not that funny, believe me11:07
Jucatooh sorry :(11:07
* Jucato shuts up now...11:07
Tonio_Jucato: no big deal :)11:08
Tonio_Jucato: just that when you promiss to do something and at the last moment you have to decline.....;11:08
Tonio_Jucato: it is one of the things I consider the most uncomortable11:09
Jucatoit can't be helped though... :(11:09
Jucatobut I think nixternal is prepared to be Plan B just in case11:09
Tonio_Jucato: well I told him I wasn't sure I could be there..... looked that I was right11:10
_StefanS_Jucato: what kind of session is it?11:11
_StefanS_hey Tonio_11:11
Jucatojust a general "About Kubuntu" session. I think nixternal made it into a Q&A sort of thing last time11:12
JucatoI wasn't there... hard waking up at 5am when the weather's all so cold :)11:12
Tonio_Jucato: I wasn't even there, I've been to buzy those last days11:14
Tonio__StefanS_: yop ;)11:14
_StefanS_Jucato: ah ok11:14
_StefanS_Tonio_:  I havent looked at the icon business yet..11:14
_StefanS_Tonio_: actually, did you see my replies to the bug on kdmtheme?11:14
_StefanS_Tonio_: I tested on a standard kubuntu install, and it worked without problems. It seems like it might be problematic when ppl have been editing the kdm files manually (as I see it)11:15
Tonio__StefanS_: well I installed my syste 2 weeks ago, I have the issues11:16
Tonio__StefanS_: I just can't seem to change the theme11:17
Tonio_no way to click "ok" for me11:17
_StefanS_Tonio_: are the issues those described in the bug aswell ?11:17
Tonio_yep11:17
_StefanS_Tonio_: like the checkbox not selected and such11:17
Tonio__StefanS_: library missin or something ?11:17
Tonio__StefanS_: yep those issues, lemme loo again11:17
_StefanS_Tonio_: I would like to solve it, but cant replicate the bug11:18
Tonio__StefanS_: do you use it inside or outside systemsettings ?11:18
_StefanS_Tonio_: inside system settings11:18
Tonio__StefanS_: hu ? just tested ant it works now......11:18
Tonio_wtf ?11:18
_StefanS_hehe11:18
_StefanS_like magic.11:19
Tonio__StefanS_: lemme try outside11:19
Tonio__StefanS_: hum it works.....11:20
Tonio__StefanS_: dunno if maybe the fix is due to latest kdelibs update11:20
Tonio__StefanS_: super strange btw11:20
_StefanS_well it might be something outside that broke it to start with11:20
_StefanS_like kdelibs you mentioned11:20
Tonio__StefanS_: yeah, just seems to work for me....11:20
Tonio__StefanS_: I'll add comments on the bug11:21
_StefanS_cool11:21
_StefanS_thanks.11:21
Tonio__StefanS_: don't waste your time on this one, better fix kdesudo hehe :)11:21
Tonio_nixternal: i'll stay here until 3pm11:21
Tonio_means 2pm utc11:21
_StefanS_Tonio_: I'll do that11:22
_StefanS_Tonio_: donno when, but the aim is hardy still (?)11:22
Tonio_nixternal: I'll then have to go, so by advance : i'm sorry for not beeing there due to meeting planned at work I just learned.....11:22
_StefanS_Tonio_: see you11:22
Tonio_aim ?11:22
_StefanS_target11:22
Tonio_seems complicated to fix ? ah11:22
_StefanS_nah, but I cant tell you when I have the time.. have to finish up a webshop first11:23
Tonio__StefanS_: yeah that's for hardy, so no emergency :)11:23
_StefanS_ok fine11:23
_StefanS_see you, and good luck on the meeting thing11:23
Tonio__StefanS_: thanks !11:23
_StefanS_byee11:25
nosrednaekimTonio_: hey... I tested your kio-apt thing...works great!13:38
nixternalTonio_: ?!?!? WHAT?13:40
nixternal:) just kidding13:40
nixternalthat's cool...I gotcha13:40
jpatricknosrednaekim: anything I need to install to build this?13:40
Tonio_nixternal: I told you I was unsure.....13:40
nosrednaekimjpatrick: nope13:40
Tonio_I heard today that I'll have a meeting at 4 pm....13:40
Tonio_nixternal: sorry for this13:40
Tonio_nosrednaekim: well yeah but is very limited atm13:41
nixternalhehehe, I know...I couldn't even remember the days we had picked, but I had a plan B, which was to just pretty much do what I did on Tuesday13:41
nixternalTonio_: don't be sorry...it is OK :)13:41
Tonio_nosrednaekim: I can't seem to find how to trust the apt:/ protocol on konq13:41
nosrednaekimTonio_: yeah.. I did notice that.13:41
Tonio_so that you don't have to accept the security thing every time in a new session13:41
Tonio_nixternal: :)13:41
nosrednaekimso did you guys pick up any recruits at your Open Week meeting?13:42
nixternalRiddell: didn't you talk to Linux+? They emailed me, the same thing I think they emailed you13:42
nixternalwe had a few come in after the talk on Tuesday13:42
* Jucato waves to the happy people in here13:44

mhbhi folks14:04
nixternalhowdy mhb14:05
mhbhi nixternal, what's up?14:06
nixternalschoolio here in a bit14:07
mhbnice, I'm in it now14:07
nixternalahh fun14:08
mhbubuntu bashing, yummy ... thanks for the links, nixternal14:11
Hobbseesays the suse lover, yes.14:13
mhbHobbsee: who's the suse lover? me?14:14
Hobbseei thought so14:14
Hobbseearent you another on suse now?14:14
mhbHobbsee: I've never had suse on my system, I've tried it in VMs, but I never got past installation, it crashed all the time.14:15
mhbHobbsee: my systems are still 100% pure kubuntu14:16
Hobbseemhb: oh, ok14:17
Hobbseei thought you were off exploring other worlds.14:17
mhbHobbsee: not at all.14:18
Hobbseehad noticed you werent really here much14:18
mhbHobbsee: uni is tough and time-consuming14:18
mhbHobbsee: sorry for that14:18
Hobbseeindeed.14:18
Hobbseeassuming you're good.  unlike me.14:18
nixternalI am always exploring other worlds14:20
nixternalneed to see what the others are doing better than us14:20
mhbnixternal: that's what I would do, too ... alas, I am one of those that have no time for exploring :o(14:21
Hobbseenixternal: heh :)14:21
mhbnixternal: so it's good to see someone from the kubuntu dev planet does it14:21
mhbnixternal: rock on14:21
nixternalya, me either right now...I am excited to see the Foresight KDE release hopefully this week14:22
Hobbseemhb: the only danger is that they might leave14:22
nixternaldo you think I would leave this?14:22
nixternalheck no14:22
nixternalunless they have better cookies of course14:22
nixternal:p14:22
mhbHobbsee: that happens. It's a bit bittersweet to see the old meeting logs and see people you've never even met, or people that are long gone14:23
Hobbseejpatrick's back, though14:23
nixternalyes it is14:23
* Hobbsee wonders what would happen if she left.14:23
nixternalwe knew he would be back14:23
nixternalthe world would fall apart14:23
mhbHobbsee: he must have left before I came in, I don't remember him before14:23
nixternalhe used to run/help run the kubuntuforums.net and did some MOTU stuff14:24
nixternalhe was gone for a while actually, or at least it seems14:24
nixternalyou all see that GMail now does IMAP?14:25
mhbnixternal: yeah, great news14:26
Hobbseemhb: yeah14:26
Hobbseehe was a motu earlier than i was14:26
Jucatohe's also the youngest dev I've met... although I forgot his age now :)14:28
Jucatonixternal: want me to throw you one of my questions from the Q&A? :D14:28
Jucatolater... you're at school >)14:29
mhbmmm, some more kubuntu today :o)14:29
nixternalhehe14:30
nixternalgo for it Jucato14:30
nixternalI was still reading "Ubuntu Sucks" posts14:30
Jucatonixternal: http://rafb.net/p/lb4Opa15.html14:30
nixternalI love it, nothing bad about Kubuntu :)14:30
Jucatotake a peek and take a pick14:30
Jucatoperhaps Kubuntu hasn't hit his radar just yet? :)14:30
mhbwhat's the easiest way to query a system for a package?14:31
Jucatoapt-cache search?14:31
mhbJucato: yeah, I guess, we don't have any platform-independent way to do that, right? I'd like to have that integrated in a python app of mine14:32
nixternalwhat question would you throw me Jucato?14:32
Jucatonixternal: 2nd one14:32
Jucatomhb: I don't think so. but you might find an xdg- tool in xdg-utils.. just maybe...14:32
nixternalthat will work14:32
nixternalI will just copy and paste sabdfl's comments14:32
nixternalhahahaha14:33
Jucatohm... he told me to ask the Kubuntu guys... and you're gonna tell me to ask the kubuntu guys? :)14:33
nixternalman, you and Hobbsee were tearing sabdfl up there for a bit :)14:33
nixternalthat is pretty funny14:33
JucatoI think I'm on his blacklist now :)14:33
nixternalhahaha14:33
Jucatoand if I do ask that again later... I'll be on yours too :)14:34
nixternalnevah14:34
nixternalbecause I am not going to dodge teh question14:34
Jucatowe'll see :)14:34
mhbJucato: do you know if apt-cache shows whether the package is installed or not?14:35
nixternal[00:53] <sabdfl> i have other folks at home who are used to windows, and it's a bit more similar14:35
Jucatomhb: nope. but aptitude does14:35
nixternalI think that is the worst answer/reason I have ever seen14:35
Hobbseenixternal: :)14:35
Jucatonixternal: the  following answer is better14:35
Hobbseenixternal: i like the fact that he got one of the answers wrong14:35
nixternalwhat is a NIH'er?14:35
=== apachelogger__ is now known as apachelogger
Jucatonot invented here (syndrome)14:36
nixternalhrmm, is that a low blow, or am I just reading it wrong?14:37
Jucatonixternal: sabdfl meant you don't have NIH syndrome a.k..a. not reinventing the wheel :)14:38
nixternalits kind of hard to invent when you have a small group of active developers, but there has been some invention that I have seen14:38
Jucato<sabdfl> and for development purposes, i just need a shell <--- this one I like too :)14:38
nixternalahh ya14:38
JucatoI just hope I'm not reading too much meaning into it :D14:38
nixternaleveryone knows how much fun it is to stare at tty1-6 looking at project code :p14:39
mhbI think he meant "terminal emulator" instead of "shell"14:39
nixternalall the tabs in the world still doesn't make development stuff fun in ther terminal14:39
mhbhrm, is there a language-independent way to find out whether a package is installed?14:40
mhbI can grep some output from aptitude, but that actually changes with every language, that's not nice14:40
* Jucato wonders if he meant "when I use the desktop w/ Kubuntu for development, I just use the shell/terminal emulator"...14:41
Jucatooh well14:41
mhbdoes he even develop anything?14:41
nixternaldpkg -l app14:41
nixternalSoyuz14:41
ScottKmhb: He does.  He's an active LP developer14:41
mhbah, okay.14:42
Hobbseemhb: yes.  lp.14:42
ScottKI've filed two LP bugs that ended up assigned to him.14:42
nixternalScottK: you didn't file a "FREE THIS BASTAGE UP ALREADY" bug? :p14:42
ScottKNo.  Someone else did that.14:42
nixternallol, and I am sure you commented, or at least accepted the bug and set it to CRITICAL :D14:43
ScottKNo, actually I didn't touch the bug.  I don't think it's ever going to happen.14:44
* nixternal either14:44
mhbit will happen once there is a better free version of LP14:44
nixternalare there any project management systems that are free/open?14:44
ScottKsabdfl say it has to be so successful before it can be freed.  I don't think it will be so successful UNLESS it is free.14:44
mhbsome DebianPad14:44
mhbnixternal: isn't trac open?14:45
nixternalI think so, but trac is lightyears behind right now14:45
nixternalI should have phrased the question better14:45
nixternalI know that Berlios, Sourceforge, Google, and others aren't...Sourceforge used to be I thought14:46
ScottKSourceforge has a free version, but is suspected to be substantially different than what they actually run.14:46
nixternalI kind of like the way Google does theirs...you have everything for the project in one spot...bugs, code, wiki, docs, website14:46
nixternallike sourceforge, but easier14:46
* Hobbsee taps fingers14:47

Jucatobye14:48
* Jucato wonders why the LP idea hasn't caught on and no one developed an open source one in the meantime...14:48
* Jucato whistles... again...14:48
* Hobbsee notes that sabdfl has said that some of it will be opened up.14:50
Jucatoyeah, piece by piece :)14:51
Jucatowell at least bzr is open14:51
Jucatoand python-based (I just found that out last night...)14:51
mhband slow14:51
Jucatoaws... I thought you're a python believer? :)14:52
mhbsure, python is not slow in general14:52
* ScottK notes he said it was the fastest Python based VCS.14:53
mhbhowever, some apps, especially those that are run several times a day, have to be made so fast that the dev almost won't notice them.14:53
* ScottK wonders if it's the only Python based VCS14:53
mhbmercurial is python, too14:53
ScottKAh.14:53
* ScottK didn't know14:53
ScottKOne project I work on we've got C, Perl, and Python libraries and in the testing I've done, the Python one is substantially faster than the Perl one.  C wins though.14:54
Jucatosabdfl mentioned a new bzr release this week w/ improvements14:55

Jucatohi bddebian15:18
bddebianHi Jucato15:19
mhbI was thinking the other day...15:29
Hobbseeof shooting certain people?15:29
mhbif we're going to use Oxygen as our default iconset in KDE, we will look like all the other KDE4 distros, right?15:29
mhbwhich is somehow bad for marketing15:30
mhbwell it doesn't matter to the KDE upstream devs, because they love all the distributions the same, but we don't15:30
Hobbseehm, i guess so15:30
* Jucato must honestly say -115:31
mhbit's like Tango in the GNOME world ... Gentoo uses it, SLED uses it15:31
mhbthere are opinions of switching to some tango-like theme for Ubuntu Hardy, but it would make Ubuntu look rather the same15:31
mhbJucato: -1 to what?15:31
Jucatoah nvm. misread that15:32
* Jucato thought using Oxygen on 8.0415:32
mhbJucato: -1 as in "I like Oxygen" or -1 as in "our KDE will look differently even with Oxygen"15:32
mhbI like Oxygen personally15:32
Jucatobut still -1 on the idea... shouldn't we first let people enjoy Oxygen before we decide on something else?15:32
Jucatoand I"m not sure jr would approve... he didn't even approve changing the K Menu icon :P15:33
mhbhehe15:33
mhbyeah, we're with Crystal now, like many other distros15:33
mhbwhat I mean is that our goal here is a little different than the KDE4 guys' goal15:33
mhbthey want KDE4 to ship and get users, no matter what distribution15:34
mhbon the other hand, we would like the users to try KDE4 with Kubuntu, not really with SUSE or PCLOS15:34
Jucatothat works on the presumption that we'll actually get more users if we changed the icon theme :)15:35
* ScottK wants a stable/working KDE in the release. He is less concerned about version numbers.15:35
Jucatoartistic taste is a very tricky thing..15:35
mhbScottK: sure, I'm just fast-forwarding to Hardy+1 situation, this doesn't affect Hardy15:35
Jucatodont get me wrong, I do know how much the default artwork makes an impression15:35
ScottKOK.15:35
JucatoScottK: we'll still be stuck with Crystal SVG :D15:36
Jucato(eek...)15:36
* ScottK cares a lot less about the prettiness than the working.15:36
apacheloggerunlike users ;-)15:36
apacheloggerpretty > working15:37
Jucatounless it's pretty && !working15:37
Jucatothen they do care15:37
mhbJucato: indeed, it is tricky.15:37
apacheloggerScottK: http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?upid=414 please drop it on your revu todo :)15:37
mhbI get a lot of negative responses to the Kubuntu current artwork, btw.15:37
ScottKapachelogger: I'm not reviewing this development cycle, sorry.15:37
apacheloggeromg15:38
Jucatothe problem is that with artwork, you'll always get very subjective feedback. unlike properly working apps :)15:38
* apachelogger needs a doctor15:38
Hobbseemhb: i'll admit to not liking it too.  and liking the gnome stuff.15:38
* Hobbsee wonders if people wont ask her to review, as she's technically an archive admin15:39

Hobbseei thought your licences had to be *right* for that :)15:40
Hobbseealthough i suppose an archive admin can still reject you.15:40
Jucatoapachelogger: at #ubuntu-motu perhaps? :)15:40
apacheloggermaybe I should get someone to become motu for me so that I can drop all the work to him/her15:41

ScottKWith the unfortunately usual high level of breakage.15:42
HobbseeScottK: no.  the screaming hasnt started on the ML yet.  it's been higher.15:42
ScottKTrue.  It's not record setting, but it does seem pretty boneheaded.15:43

JucatoI will just trouble you later at nixternal's talk :)15:57
* mhb is toying with a "Blue Human icon theme" idea15:58
Jucatoisn't there one already?15:58
* n8k99 is toying with blue humans15:58
mhbis there?15:58
JucatoI thought there is15:58
* mhb remembers the blue man group performance he saw once15:59
Jucatohm.. iirc there was... can't see those now...15:59
mhbhmm, I'll ask at #ubuntu-artwork15:59
Jucatobut, why not just colorize the icons? hehehe15:59
* n8k99 remembers the blue man group episode of the Simpsons he saw once15:59
mhbJucato: is that really such a silly idea?16:00
Jucatoit's hard to gauge artwork's silliness :)16:01
JucatoI like the Human icons though... except they're so orange :)16:01
mhbJucato: them folders look way nicer than Crystals16:01
mhband we have to do something radical with the artwork for hardy16:01
* Jucato prefers to use Nuvola...16:01
Jucatohm....16:02
JucatoI wouldn't... really.. um...16:02
mhbJucato: isn't some pc-bsd using that already?16:02
Jucatoradical artwork for an LTS\ release? :)16:02
mhbJucato: yes, that is the way to go, check out the UDS specs for ubuntu16:02
n8k99i think that the blue elephant wallpaper should be used by default16:03
Jucatoand we have to follow suit?16:03
Jucatooh well....16:03
mhbJucato: they think the LTS should define the way to go for the next non-LTS versions16:03
Jucatowhat?!?!16:03
mhbvisually16:03
mhbwell IIRC16:03
mhbn8k99: I second that16:03
mhbJucato: and you know, LTS is the ideal version where to change artwork, because most of the others stuff will be kept :o)16:04
mhbartwork doesn't segfault16:04
Jucatomhb: my concept of LTS is a bit different though...16:04
Jucatoso I'm probably wrong...16:04
Jucatooh well, as long as it doesn't crash :D16:05
Jucatomhb: btw, before, during the start of my *buntu days, I was terribly jealous of Ubuntu having it's own icon set, it's own branded theme (GTK+ themes are just color schemes...) or window borders (pixmaps)16:06
mhbJucato: I was *really* impressed by the Human icon theme when I first saw it... love at first sight, I guess16:07
n8k99mhb i'm rocking it now and need to make the kdm theme and splash screen use it as well!!16:08
Jucatomhb: it liked it too... except for the defalt palette.... but now I like Nuvola best among the kde3 icons :)16:08
mhbn8k99: we just need to konvince (heh) kwwii16:08
Jucatoit's also the most semi-complete among other alternatives... almost16:08
mhbJucato: yeah, completeness is a PITA for many icon themes16:08
n8k99i guess that means rallying support during UDS as well16:09
mhbn8k99: you'll be at this UDS?16:09
Jucatomhb: whatever happened to Fedora's Echo icons?16:09
n8k99i wish- i thought about booking too late to be able to afford the hotel16:10
n8k99and i have to bring my daughter with me, cause the wife is off on business trip that week16:10
mhbJucato: I don't remember those ... I know the "not-so-pretty" theme they use in KDE now, but I don't know how it is called16:10
n8k99so doubt it- but i'll be in IRC rooms16:10
* Jucato hopes he can do the gobby thingy this time...16:11
Jucatoor listen into the sessions16:11
n8k99ooh thanks i forgot to add gobby to this machine16:13
* Jucato sighs...16:14
Jucatokubuntu...16:14
kwwiimhb: kde4 uses oxygen icons (I started that as well) - I would rather stick to what upstream uses as the human icons will never fit with the kde icons16:26
mhbkwwii: I know that, but I somehow feel that with a generic look we won't offer anything more than, say, Debian16:30
mhbkwwii: do you remember me talking about the problem with Tango icons being too common now? I fear that will arrive with Oxygen icons once they will be widespread16:31
Jucatolet Oxygen's magic "wow" wear off first...16:31
mhbokay, let's do that first16:31
nosrednaekimOxygen in gutsy?16:32
mhbno, in hardy+1 earliest16:32
Jucatowell anyway.. if you're planning to do something artistically radical for hardy.. oxygen won't be there yet :)16:32
nosrednaekimnuvola looks nice...16:33
nosrednaekimwith polyester16:33
mhbyeah, and if we won't try & build some community around artwork, we will not move further much16:33
* nosrednaekim wants a dark blue theme16:33
mhbI'm afraid our busy man kwwii won't get any less busier in this development cycle16:33
nosrednaekimwhat if I design it? I mean, i'm good withcolors, I just can't draw anything ;)16:35
Jucato:)16:35
Jucatowb jpatrick16:35
kwwiimhb: right, you might have a point and perhaps it would be nice to add a few icons of our own but first we need to find and artist :-916:36
jpatricknosrednaekim: that was the easiest package ever16:36
jpatrickJucato: ta16:36
nosrednaekimjpatrick: lol.... probably like gnu-hello16:37
kwwiiso the plan is to still include kde3 for hardy? (if so, because it is long term support, I guess)16:37
jpatrickit finished building about 2 minutes after I left earlier with no errors16:37
Jucatokwwii: yep16:37
kwwiiouch, that sucks16:38
kwwiiI get the point, but it still sucks16:38
drsatyri:(16:38
JucatoI'm imagining (and I think nixternal promised) separate KDE 4 CD's  though16:38
drsatyrikde4 is pretty though.16:38
kwwiiif we still ship kde3 we can just wait to do any major changes in the artwork16:39
kwwiione good part about that is that it allows us to take a longer term look at the artwork plan16:39
* Jucato nods16:40
nosrednaekimjpatrick: heh :)16:40
jpatrickapachelogger: around?16:40
mhbyeah, we should somehow create the Kubuntu (artwork) identity because we don't really have a vision atm16:41
kwwiione nice thing in gutsy - my printer finally works!16:41
mhbnot that Ubuntu does16:41
kwwiimhb: the good thing is that we have the freedom to pretty much do whatever we want16:41
Jucatoimho ubuntu has a stronger artwork identity though...16:41
nixternalgotta love when a teacher cancels...nothing like driving all the way there just to find out...sometimes I wish teachers knew what email was16:41
Jucatocellphones :)16:42
kwwiiJucato: definitely, there are a lot more people interested in the artwork side of ubuntu and sabdfl is willing to pay people to work on it :-)16:42
* Jucato grumbles...16:42
Jucatonixternal: prepare for a bashing!16:42
nixternalkwwii: how could we get more people interested? there is some good work on kde-look.org16:42
ScottKnixternal: Convince sadfl to write checks.16:43
Jucatoeasier said that done :)16:43
nixternalbah, there are plenty of voluntold artists16:43
nixternalI mean volunteer16:43
kwwiinixternal: I have asked myself that question quite a few times...kde has always had very few good artists and the ones that are around I stole to make oxygen so they are working on other things16:43
kwwiiwhat we need are people who are good artists *and* interested in kubuntu16:43
kwwiiif you look at the best linux artwork it is almost always paid for by some company16:44
drsatyriare we talking widgets, icons, wallpapers or what16:44
Jucatohm.. kwwii.. has Ubuntu stuck to at least the same color scheme, widget theme (human) and window borders for a few releases now?16:44
Jucatodrsatyri: all? :)16:44
Jucatoexcept icons I presume16:44
drsatyricrystal is pretty16:44
kwwiidrsatyri: icons and wallpapers mostly...the technical stuff is another problem in itself16:44
drsatyrihm16:44
kwwiiit is hard to find developers who want to waste their time working with artists :p16:45
jjessehrmm my sound starts quiet and then stars getting really really load16:45
drsatyriha i see16:45
jjesseloud16:45
mhbJucato: they have16:45
kwwiijjesse: that is the "pump it up" effect :p16:45
mhbJucato: Dapper and Gutsy are pretty similar16:45
Jucatohm.. so far we've been changing every release right? hm.... not bad :)16:46
nixternalpump it up effect16:46
nixternalkwwii: I would love to be able to do artwork, but I totally suck at it...Inkscape is my biggest nemesis16:47
kwwiimhb: hrm? how is the dapper and gutsy artwork similar?16:47
Jucatonixternal: even more than karbon14? :D16:47
kwwiinixternal: lol, you are not the only one who is scared of inkscape16:47
nixternalI haven't really messed with karbon1416:47
kwwiikarbon14 sucks major big time16:47
drsatyriisnt inkscape a lot like illustrator?16:47
nixternalI am not scared of Inkscape, I play around following tutorials and what not16:47
Jucatonixternal: friendly advice: don't :)16:47
nixternalI just suck16:47
nixternalguess I don't have the artistic eye anymore16:48
kwwiidrsatyri: in some ways yes but in the most important ones, no16:48
Jucatonixternal: hm.. inkscape not that hard to use after you've tried k14 :)16:48
nixternalheh16:48
nixternalI could never figure out photoshop either, gimp on the otherhand is easy and I love it16:48
drsatyrihey i opened it to try it and it threw an internal error cool16:48
nixternalI can use their filters and people are like "damn man you are good"...little do they know that isn't me :)16:48
Jucatoheheh16:48
* Jucato hopes KOffice 2 will make karbon more likeable/usable...16:49
mhbkwwii: compare http://i.n.com.com/i/ne/p/2007/1016Ubuntu-Installing550x41.jpg and http://asher256.tuxfamily.org/images/ubuntu/ubuntu_dapper.png16:49
mhbkwwii: isn't that very similar?16:49
Jucatonixternal: this time, I will make sure I'm alive at your talk16:49
Jucatoer.. awake16:49
jpatrickit's too late for me16:49
* nosrednaekim should be there this time16:50
Jucatotoo early for moi16:50
nixternalJucato: if you are around, then you will be apart of the A in Q&A :)16:50
Jucatokwwii: similar wrt color scheme, widget theme, window borders16:50
Jucatonixternal: hah! I'm the one giving all the Q's :P16:50
nixternaland I will be the one to say "you already know the answer", or "RTFM!" :p16:50
Jucatoand so that I won't be hogging the mic, I'll log in w/ different names16:51
nosrednaekimit was that inactive last time?16:51
kwwiiJucato: yes, the color scheme, widget theme and window borders have not changed since dapper16:51
kwwiibut the other parts have16:51
mhb<Juan> <Carlos_> <Torro> <Anrlrr>16:51
kwwiiand btw that is not the dapper wallpaper anyway16:51
* kwwii packs for boston16:51
drsatyridamn i cant recreate that16:52
Jucatooh FOSSCamp :(16:52
nixternalI was going to head out to FOSSCamp even though I wasn't invited...but I have a paper to do this weekend unfortunately16:52
Jucatodarn. you're much needed there :(16:53
Jucatotroy, annma, and robertknight will be there to represent KDE16:53
nixternalfor what? I just wanted to meet Anne Marie, Tony, and others16:53
JucatoTony?16:53
nixternalTroy I mean16:54
nixternalhehe16:54
* Jucato looks for troy....16:54
nixternalTroy Unru*something or other16:54
nixternalI can say it, just can't spell it16:54
Jucatowell, you're needed there to pimp Kubuntu of course :P16:54
JucatoUnrau16:54
mhbUnrau16:54
nixternaloh, I did spell it right16:54
mhbnixternal: me too16:54
nixternaljust didn't want to look silly in case it was wrong16:54
nosrednaekimUnrau16:54
nosrednaekimme too16:54
Jucatonixternal: no you didn't :)16:55
nixternalahh, I through in the "u", so you are right16:55
nixternalbut when I was going to press enter before I changed to that, I had it right16:55
nixternalI would type it, back space it, type it, back space it, and so on :)16:56
Jucato:P16:56
nixternalOK, so who is ready to do some merges?16:56
Jucatough!16:56
* nixternal looks for the "K"s that need some merging16:56
* Jucato tries not to think about development first16:57
nixternalOK, is it me or are there not many "K"s to be merged16:58
n8k99nixternal: what do you mean merged?16:58
nixternalmerged from Debian...we take their base package and make Ubuntu changes16:59
Jucato!merges16:59
ubotuSorry, I don't know anything about merges - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi16:59
Jucatobah!16:59
jpatrickHobbsee: you okay? :|16:59
nixternalmaybe I will work at closing out some bugs instead16:59
drsatyriin gutsy?16:59
n8k99oh that merged!16:59
drsatyrimy head is spinning16:59
nixternalno, Hardy17:00
Jucatohardy is open17:00
nixternalunless there is one needing an SRU of course17:00
Jucaton8k99: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Merging and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment#head-92bbe6d449420d5333115ba9b8bbde376b11f30417:00
Hobbseejpatrick: abotu to kill this guy, but otherwise, yes.17:01
n8k99Jucato:  are you telling me that you want me to MOTU!?!17:01
n8k99:P17:01
Jucaton8k99: er nvm17:01
JucatoI thought you were asking what it was17:01
* Jucato headdesks to wake up17:01
n8k99i was17:01
Jucatoso I gave you the link17:01
* n8k99 is too playful lately, rub back with sandpaper, pours alcohol on it17:02
JucatoLP session now..17:03
nosrednaekimI already heard this one..17:03
nosrednaekimjust to let you know... you know everything he says17:03
JucatoI haven't17:03
nixternallol17:04
nosrednaekimok :)17:05
JucatoLP is a big jungle for me17:05
JucatoI actually hate going into LP :P17:05
nixternalewww17:05
ScottKJucato: You aren't alone.17:05
Jucatobut I want to not hate it at least :)17:05
Jucato(even if I don't end up loving it)17:05
nixternalI just loaded the Ubuntu LiveCD to install on my desktop so I can test some stuff, and the wallpaper is hid-e-us! :p17:06
Jucatoactually, I want to love it... because I believe in what it's trying to do...17:06
nosrednaekimchocolate brown?17:06
nixternalchocolate brown I could probably live with17:06
nosrednaekimLp is slow on my dial-up...17:06
nixternalthis looks like "I drank to much last night" brown17:06
nosrednaekimheh17:06
JucatoHobbsee likes it :)17:06
* Jucato hides17:07
nixternaltypical, cause trouble and then run :)17:07
Hobbseeyes, i like the ubuntu wallpaper.17:07
* nosrednaekim chases Jucato into #ubuntu-classroom-chat17:07
JucatoLaunchpad... the Friendster of the FOSS world :D17:07
Jucato<mrevell> Launchpad is great at bringing free software people together <--- and here's the proof :)17:08
n8k99hmmm... can i friend fellow Launchpaddians?17:08
Jucatoyou can create a group/team )17:08
mhbJucato: it brings semi-free software people, I don't think RMS will use it17:08
n8k99close17:08
nosrednaekim[12:08] <mrevell> For example: if I come across a feature blueprint that Jucato has filed, and I like his idea, I may want to help out. Let's say his idea is to create a new Ubuntu application for tracking information about Elvis impersonators.17:08
Jucatohahah funny17:08
Jucatomhb: of course...17:09
Jucatomhb: which has made me wonder for the past months... LP is a great idea... and some people don't want to use simply for not being totally open... so why hasn't anyone come up with a totally free alternative yet? :)17:09
Jucato(although I heard someone say that other distros might not want to use it even if it's 100% open.. because it's Canonical/Ubuntu's...)17:10
mhbJucato: many has come up with such an idea, few have a) started working on it for free or b) opened it up17:10
* Hobbsee suspects most wouldnt have the infrastructure, either17:11
nosrednaekimI think the reason LP is closed is because they don't want imitations17:11
Jucatohaven't found/ heard of anything yet17:11
JucatoHobbsee: that's probably the biggest hindrance...17:11
nosrednaekimbecause that would cause a lack of producticity17:11
Jucatowell maybe.. maybe not.... :)17:11
Jucato[00:11] <mrevell> Just like people, teams can also be members of other teams.[00:11] <mrevell> This makes it easy to create a structure for a project or initiative within Launchpad.17:12
JucatoSocial networking!!! :P17:12
Hobbseehehe17:12
Hobbseelinked in is good for that17:12
nosrednaekim(DE)facebook!!17:12
Jucatobtw... in fact there's an open sourced social networking software that was running on Ubuntu...17:12
Jucatothey just open sourced it a few months back17:13
nosrednaekimmhb: hey... how would I test the firmware dialog in my restrcited-manager if I don't have a broadcom?17:13
nixternalyou just wait for NEPOMUK-KDE and Decibel baby!17:13
Jucatonixternal: I can't wait :(17:13
* n8k99 is waiting17:14
* n8k99 is still waiting17:14
nixternalwhere your desktop can become part of the social networking stuff17:14
Jucatoactually I am... and it's the only reasonable use I have for strigi...17:14
Jucatostrigi + nepomuk-kde17:14
nixternalI can't stand that social networking stuff really...it is ashame people have to find friends online17:14
Jucatonot sure about decibel though... I mean, I rarely use IM...17:14
nixternaleveryone I want to let know what I am doing, I tell them on IRC or I call them :)17:14
Jucatomostly because you guys prefer IRC..17:14
mhbnosrednaekim: use the tests scripts I've provided in one of the dirs17:14
n8k99most of my online friends are old friend who i had lost contact with17:14
drsatyrimultiplayer notepad :P17:14
mhbnosrednaekim: by the way, you may want to suspend your work on the frontend for a short while17:15
nixternalI have been seeing more and more people though, older people, using MySpace, and Facebook, and Twitter and what not17:15
nosrednaekimmhb: it comes with the normal deb?17:15
n8k99lawl at drsatyri!17:15
mhbnosrednaekim: do you know we're going to be rewriting r-m from scratch?17:15
mhbnosrednaekim: probably not17:15
nixternalI don't have time for it...I would put up a page and never look at it17:15
nosrednaekimmhb: backend changes?17:15
drsatyrithats not fair really though i got it from bash17:15
nixternalI would probably lose more friends that way, and right now I only 217:15
nixternalkubuntu and kde :p17:15
mhbnosrednaekim: yes, huge17:16
nosrednaekimmhb: no I didn't...17:16
n8k99nixternal: you can set it so that you get alerts in akregator17:16
nosrednaekimmhb: any way I can help?17:16
nixternalmy english is getting worse as I get older17:16
mhbnosrednaekim: you should monitor LP blueprints more .o)17:16
nosrednaekimheh.. I should17:16
nixternaln8k99: half the time I delete what's in akregator, unless it is Jucato of course17:16
mhbnosrednaekim: sure, at this phase, read through the code, post your suggestions etc. etc.17:16
Jucatohaha :)17:16
mhbnosrednaekim: read the info pitti wrote etc.17:16

mhbnixternal: you, jucato and riddell?17:17
nixternalPlanet KDE is great, if you understand 50% of the time what they are talking about, and when there isn't a KHTML/WebKit war going on17:17
Jucatohahah17:17
n8k99i'm thinking of applying for membership that could put another blue voice on the planet! :P17:18
Jucatonixternal: mhb is also blogging about K.. so that's 4 of us17:18
nixternalwhich, if that war didn't go on, I wouldn't have learned stuff I have been wondering for a while17:18
mhbHobbsee did back in the day, apachelogger did, too17:18

nosrednaekimmhb: sooo, what am I looking for in this spec? is there any code written yet? sorry, i'm pretty new to this ;)17:30
mhbnosrednaekim: the process goes like this:17:30
mhbnosrednaekim: we write what we want17:30
mhbnosrednaekim: we discuss it at UDS (what classes will we use, what interfaces etc.)17:30
mhbnosrednaekim: then we hack17:30
nosrednaekimoh! UDS = ubuntu dev summit17:31

Jucatooh good Nightrose's is here17:34
jjessegood midnight Jucato17:35
Jucato:D17:35
Nightrosehehe17:35
Nightrosejes I am17:35
Nightrosenarf - typos--17:35
JucatoNightrose: can you please confirm, that for vanilla Amarok, Win+C is pause?17:35
nixternaljjesse: did you get an email from Linux+?17:35
NightroseJucato: let me check - one sec17:35
JucatoPlay/Pause I mean.. Global Shortcuts17:36
NightroseJucato: for me it is ctrl+alt+p and I never touched the shortcuts17:36
Jucatobut that's on Kubuntu right?17:37
Jucatohm... I have a feeling that it's not supposed to be that though...17:37
Nightroseah yes it is17:37
=== mhb_ is now known as mhb
Nightroseok I will check with the devs and get back to you17:37
JucatoNightrose: ok thanks. but not really critical though :)17:37
Nightrose;-)17:38
Jucatoit's been a nagging question in my mind for 2 releases now :)17:38
mhbJucato: which one?17:38
drsatyriman this looks like a grueling process17:39
Jucatomhb: I suspect that Amarok's default Global Shortcut for Play?Pause is Win+C, while we have it at Ctrl+Alt+P17:39
Hobbseewe ahve some whacky amarok defaults.17:39
Jucatothat's one change I don't seem to understand though...17:39
Jucatoit sort of breaks the "flow" of Win+Z to B17:39
JucatoHobbsee: someone asked the million dollar Q!17:41
HobbseeJucato: yup :D17:41
* nosrednaekim hopes it was him..17:41
jjessei always miss that question :(17:42
Jucatooh you wouldn't :)17:42
nosrednaekimwhat was it... "why isn't launchpad FOSS?"17:42
Jucatonosrednaekim: you want to be on Canonical's hitlist? :)17:42
Jucatopoor mrevell... lecturer and question fetcher all in one :P17:43

Jucato:D17:45
nosrednaekimmhb: well, I read the spec, sounds good :) when you get around to the code, I'll write the command line part for sure :)17:48
NightroseJucato: acording to one of our devs you are right17:49
JucatoNightrose: oh thanks17:50
* Jucato will poke someone here about that soon17:50
nixternalJucato: no plan for sleep until the talk?17:55

Jucatonixternal: if you'd like to take a look into that Amarok Global Shortcuts thingy18:04
Jucatoalthough it's not a big issue18:04
nixternalnosrednaekim: hehe, then that would explain the bada bing :)18:06
Jucatonixternal: see you later. I'll contemplate throwing difficult/controversial Q's or not :)18:06
nixternalhehe, sleep tight18:06
nosrednaekimthought so...18:06
nixternalwhat is the amarok global shortcuts?18:06

_StefanS_evening!19:51
DaSkreechHello19:51
_StefanS_hey19:52
_StefanS_anything happening?19:52
DaSkreechYep19:53
DaSkreechCXoffice is sucking19:53
_StefanS_crossover?19:55
DaSkreechYeah19:56
_StefanS_doesnt it always..19:56
* DaSkreech smils19:56
_StefanS_run a vm insteade19:56
DaSkreech+e19:56
DaSkreechSounds like a near feasible idea19:56
DaSkreechWould have to retrain the staff though19:56
_StefanS_well it works 100%.. not like that wine19:56
_StefanS_crossover thingy19:56
DaSkreechOh no it works and runs office fine19:57
_StefanS_I believe that some recent release actually supported export of only application windows...19:57
_StefanS_was it parallels19:57
DaSkreechJust that if they put in a USB drive it doesn't seem to get an auto Drive Letter19:57
_StefanS_uhm19:57
_StefanS_oh19:57
DaSkreechWhich the new wine has19:57
DaSkreech But this is an edgy box19:57
DaSkreech I'll work it out19:57
_StefanS_dist-upgrade? :)19:57
DaSkreechYeah They can't pay me :)19:58
_StefanS_uhm I need a new thinkpad19:58
_StefanS_heh, so you wont do it? :)19:58
DaSkreechNo I can. They can't afford to pay me to sit through two upgrades20:00
_StefanS_sounds like a cheapass company to me20:01
_StefanS_thats not alot of money20:01
_StefanS_probably a small firm, or institution20:01
DaSkreechVery20:03
DaSkreechThough to put it in perspective they can hire me to do an install of gutsy20:04
_StefanS_too bad they dont have a big enough budget for a small task like that, I bet windows servers has taken a whole lot more time. But it always seem more accepted.20:05
DaSkreechNO they run the whole backend on LInux20:06
DaSkreech the old admin had Ubuntu installed on his machine20:06
DaSkreechhence it being old and unfriendly20:06
DaSkreech he's gone now and they want to move all the machines to Linux20:06
DaSkreechBut this one had a Windows DLL crash on boot so I'm fixing it in the interim20:07
_StefanS_ah ok20:07
_StefanS_just presumed stuff..20:07
_StefanS_nice to have a customer with full linux install20:07
DaSkreechWe have about 4 now20:08
DaSkreech and two more wanting20:08
_StefanS_nice20:08
drsatyrihello all20:08
DaSkreechThey are windows now :)20:08
DaSkreech but they saw the price of Vista and balked20:08
_StefanS_DaSkreech: so youre regular employee? or contractor?20:08
DaSkreechwould prefer to throw that money into something that won't repeat the cost every two years20:09
DaSkreechContractor20:09
_StefanS_nice20:09
_StefanS_me too20:09
DaSkreechThat's why they can't afford to have me sit down watching packages download20:09
DaSkreechI'm charging per minute20:09
_StefanS_per minute? I never heard that before20:09
DaSkreechThey work it out to that20:09
_StefanS_usually its 30mins / 1 hour20:09
_StefanS_ah ok20:09
DaSkreechThey like number juggling :)20:10
_StefanS_ofcourse it also means that they dont pay for extra time20:10
_StefanS_but sometimes its hard to estimate it20:10
DaSkreechYeah20:10
_StefanS_but hey, you get better at it ;)20:10
DaSkreechOk lets see how this Dell restore Utility handles partitions20:10
DaSkreech Reboot!20:10
_StefanS_see you20:11
DaSkreechHmmm that's not good20:22
_StefanS_kwwii: you there?20:22
_StefanS_kwwii: need some quick help20:23

drsatyrii just dont get the process yet20:24
_StefanS_uhm good for you, so what is it20:24
_StefanS_:)20:24
drsatyrilol its taking unstable debian packages and "migrating" them to ubuntu for the next release20:24
drsatyrii just found that out myself20:25
drsatyritheres a lot more to it20:25
_StefanS_uhm ok20:25
_StefanS_thanks20:25
drsatyridoes kate have two-panel document viewing?20:28
drsatyriyes it does nvm20:28
DaSkreechIf it can follow your mind. It's in KDE20:29
_StefanS_wtf..20:29
_StefanS_doesnt kate have a tabbed view for open files?20:29
DaSkreechYes20:30
DaSkreechI think he was looking for split view20:30
DaSkreechWait20:30
DaSkreech you mean Non tree?20:30
_StefanS_just tabs really20:31
drsatyrianyone know anything about the apt-setup package?20:45
manchickenDoes anybody know if there's anything like gnotime for KDE?20:58
manchickenkarm seems to have some historical info...20:59
drsatyriman this is confusing21:12
jpatrickwhat is?21:14
drsatyriim trying to merge the latest apt-setup but the differences are in bash scripts21:15
jpatricknop... can't say i've done that before21:16
drsatyrii might try an easier one for my first merge21:16
jpatricktry a kde one :)21:17

_StefanS_kwwii: --> pm21:28
manchickenOoh, I figured out how to get KArm to work with Kontact.21:29
manchickenJust import karm's iCal file as read-only :)21:29
manchickenSweet.21:30
drsatyridamn there was a whole intro primer to packaging last friday and i missed it :/21:43
drsatyriwait21:43
drsatyrithats this friday21:43
fdovingfeel free to ask if you have specific questions.21:46
drsatyriok well im merging kaffeines sid version and im to the point where im reading the report21:48
drsatyrii used grab-merge to get the files but i dont know what im comparing here21:48
fdovingis grab-merge in the revu-tools package? - i usually do this manually.21:49
drsatyrii found it on a site describing first-time merging: http://nvalcarcel.aureal.com.pe/?p=14621:50
fdovingah.21:50
drsatyrii guess what im doing right now is comparing the debian source to the ubuntu source21:51
drsatyriim lost, basically. :)21:51
fdovingyep.21:51
fdovingyou are.21:51
drsatyriso its a judgement call?21:52
nixternal*yawn*21:52
drsatyrisorry i dont have exciting problems :)21:52
fdovingdrsatyri: yeah, the idea is to figure out which ubuntu changes needs to be applied (if any) to the debian package.21:53
stdinglad to see you're alive nixternal :)21:53
nixternaljust got done going for a quick walk21:53
drsatyrilike here the report says ill find .debian and .ubuntu files that need to be merged into the original file name21:53
nixternalooh, gotta give the dog his meds before this starts21:53
drsatyribut theres only debian files21:53
stdinhey Jucato :)21:57
Jucatohey21:58
* Jucato wonders if Professor Nixternal is ready21:58
mhbnixternal: you up? good luck!21:59
drsatyriwhere is this presentation?21:59
stdinjust got this "[21:58] -nixternal- tell Jucato I had to leave so there will not be a talk about kubuntu"21:59
nixternaldamn21:59
nixternalsell me out why don't you21:59
nixternalhahahahahaha21:59
stdinnixternal: well you can tell him yourself21:59
stdin:p21:59
Jucatoseriously?21:59
nixternalit would have been a good joke seeing he only went to sleep for a few hours :)22:00
fdovingdrsatyri: the debian changes looks good to me. the update some packages that are not kubuntu specific, there is also a maintainer change in debian/control, you'll have to set that to ubuntu core dev.22:00
stdin/notices kinda disturb me, not used to them22:00
Jucatoand just woke up 3 minutes ago22:00
drsatyrihow did you tell that they looked good?22:01
drsatyrioh22:01
fdovingdrsatyri: i don't inspect them closely at all, i trust the debian kde extras team to do great work as usual.22:01
Jucatooh there, my other alarm clock went off a bit late...22:02
drsatyriok so those .debian files are additional patches22:04
drsatyriand this source directory is just the mom suggested source22:04
Jucatohi mom!22:04
drsatyritheres a running joke that i havent got yet with that22:05
fdovingdrsatyri: yeah, mom suggested source, except you need to do something to the .debian or .ubuntu files. that is usually editing with your changes if any are needed and rename them to remove the .debian or .ubuntu extension.22:06
drsatyriand the only change here would be the maintainer change, which goes to "ubuntu core dev"22:06
drsatyrik ill try to follow the guide from here, thanks22:06
fdovingdrsatyri: Maintainer: Ubuntu Core developers <ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com>22:07
fdovingsomething like that.22:07
fdovingyou should also make a Original-Maintainer: field.22:07
fdovingbut, read the changelog, have a look at which changes are done in the kubuntu patches. if they add dependencies etc.22:08
jpatrickJucato: I think you'll be pleased to know that I've ripped apart Katapult with KDE4 stuff22:08
* Jucato is pleased :)22:09
drsatyrik thats a negative22:09
drsatyrinow ill rebuild the package22:10
jpatrickphew, it's the katapult/ directory done22:14
nosrednaekimjpatrick: another program that would be nice to have is "qlwm"22:15
jpatrickecho "qlwm" >> TODO22:16
drsatyriim getting an error about the debian/rules file saying on line 7 theres a missing operator, but "<<<<<<< kaffeine-0.8.5-0ubuntu1 (ubuntu)" is line 722:16
drsatyriwhen i try to buildpackage, that is22:16
Jucatojpatrick: your attention was "called" in -classroom :P22:17
jpatrickJucato: and it was responed too22:18
* jpatrick gets rid of the button konversation tabs22:19
Jucato:D22:19

nosrednaekimmanchicken: got your lappy back?22:27
manchickenYeah, last week.22:27
manchickenGutsy was doing fine on it, but now I'm having lots of issues.22:27
manchickenMostly kmix/kmilo/artsd related.22:27
nosrednaekimyeah.... I've been hearing alot of problems with kmilo22:30
Jucatomhb should probably take a look22:30
nosrednaekimis he the little minion?22:31
jpatrickwe all are22:32
JucatoI consider him as the kmilo dude minion22:32
* mhb is looking around22:35
mhbwhat should I target my X-Ray vision at,22:35
mhb?22:35
Jucatolook up? :)22:36
Jucatono, don't target your xray vision at the ceiling/next floor22:36
nosrednaekimmhb: kmilo22:36
nosrednaekimget to work22:36
* nosrednaekim snaps the whip22:36
mhbnosrednaekim: details? bug number?22:37
nosrednaekimmhb: I'm kidding, manchicken was complaining about it though.22:37
Jucatomhb: poke manchicken. he has more details22:37
mhbokay, manchicken22:40
manchickenmhb: My volume controls are broke, and my headphone jack doesn't seem to play nice.22:40
mhbmanchicken: bug number?22:41
manchickenLemme look22:42

jpatricklol22:43
mhbJucato: I'm not going to sleep yet, jpatrick is :o)22:43
Jucatooh sorry22:43
Jucatojpatrick: good22:43
Jucatonight...22:43
mhbmy bad22:43
manchickenI don't know if that's actually the cause (kmix or dcop or whatnot), but I do know that it used to work like a champ, but something that happened in the patches I applied on Thursday last week killed it.22:43
manchickenAnd my headphone jack doesn't work anymore either.22:44
mhbif I invested more time in artwork, nobody would do the stuff I planned coding ... if I coded more, nobody's going to do anything about artwork22:44
manchickenI think it's all a mixer issue though.22:44
mhbmanchicken: so it was your work?22:46
manchickenNo, sorry, s/patches/updates/22:46
manchickenAll apt updates22:46
Jucatomhb: I think there were some problems w/ kmilo not going up/beyon 10% or something?22:46
mhboh yes22:47
manchickenYeah, my kmilo is going up to 11% and won't go higher.22:47
Jucatodarn! missed by 1%22:47
mhbI wish I could reproduce that22:47
manchickenmhb: Me too :)22:47
nosrednaekimwas doing that here until I bypassed kmilo22:47
manchickenDoes kmilo do anything with the headphone jack?  I'm wondering if that is a related or separate problem.22:48
begerthey all22:54
nosrednaekimhey begert22:55
ryanakcamanchicken: I can confirm the 11% problem22:55
Jucatonixternal: I'll poke you in an hour or so.. gotta catch a quick snooze23:11
