mhbmanchicken: how about making adept updater look like this:00:10
mhbmanchicken: http://mhb.ath.cx/blog/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/updater-suggested.png00:10
mhbmanchicken: I must admit, I like simple dialogs for simple tasks00:11
ryanakcahmm... any reason packagekit hasn't already been packaged?01:49
Jucatowhoa? Kivio stencils for sale? O.o01:53
seeleyeah01:54
seeleyou can also request stencils to be made for a price01:54
seeleif only kivio was good enough to be worth that..01:54
Jucato:)01:55
* Jucato is still looking for a UI-wireframing app :)01:55
seeleif you find an OSS one, let me know01:55
seeleive been looking for years01:55
seeleafaik dia is better than kivio, but still no match for visio01:55
Jucatouh oh... :)01:55
seeleand since it is a major part of my job function, i cant waste time with a sub-par application01:56
Jucatoif you haven't found one for years... I doubt I can find one in a few hours :D01:56
seelefrustration is not a consultant's friend01:56
seeleyeah01:56
Jucato:)01:57
nixternalI haven't used Visio since like 1998....I heard it is gotten really good over the past few releases...maybe I will have to check it out01:58
Jucatonixternal!!!!01:59
seelenixternal: try to get an older version that doesnt have the ribbon01:59
seelei still haven't figured it out01:59
nixternalyou can disable the ribbon and go back to classic view...I watched someone in class do it last week02:00
seeleooh02:00
* seele does that right now02:00
nixternalinstalling Visio Pro 2007 now02:00
Jucatois there a demo version of Visio? :D02:00
nixternalI am sure there is02:00
seelea demo version of a microsoft product?02:00
nixternalheh, they actually have those now02:01
Jucatohehe my diagramming wants are really simple... UML, Flowchart, generic diagrams, and possibly UI wireframing... Umbrello takes care of the first 2...02:01
nixternalUML == Umbrello02:01
nixternalI use Kivio for flowcharting02:02
nixternalif I flowchart02:02
nixternalUI wireframing I never did much of...I would alway draw it out in the UI dev software02:02
Jucato:P02:02
nixternalmaybe next time I will read your entire sentence before commenting :p02:02
* Jucato wants to specialize in UI (a bit of usability, but more on programming and desing)02:03
Jucatoer.. design02:03
Jucatokivio's UML stencils are a bit... :)02:03
nixternalI took 2 UI design courses, just finished up the 2nd one a couple of months ago02:04
Jucatokool!02:04
nixternalheh, the UI I used to program was nasty stuff02:04
nixternalHMI Panels for Allen Bradley02:04
nixternalit wasn't until we switched from the HMI panels to PCs where I got to do nice 3d panels02:04
Jucatothey actually have UI courses? sweet! :)02:04
nixternalI know our universities here do, at least the ones I know02:05
nixternalI just started taking CS courses...got my Bachelors at University of Maryland (GO TERPS!) in Business02:05
crimsunonly a few miles from here!02:07
JucatoI bet that if there were ever any UI design-related courses/classes here, it would either be Java or Visual Foo02:07
nixternalCollege Park baby!02:07
crimsunmy gf lives in CP02:07
nixternalThe only place I really frequented up there was Congressional Golf Course in Bethesda02:08
nixternaland Chevy Chase, only because I almost bought a house there when I worked for Fannie Mae02:08
nixternalholy smokes, I just downloaded 9mb in 2 seconds02:08
Jucatoseele: wow! there is a free trial of visio! lol! :D02:14
Jucatoof course I have to sign-in/up :P02:14
nixternalhaha02:15
Jucatoluckily I have a hotmail account...02:15
nixternalinteresting...my Visio 2007 Pro doesn't have the ribbon02:16
jjessehello nixternal and Jucato02:26
Jucatojjesse!!!02:26
Jucatoback from UDS?02:26
jjesseyeah got back friday night late02:26
jjesselike 11:45 or so02:26
Riddelljjesse: sorry I didn't say goodbye02:26
Riddellthanks for coming02:27
jjesseRiddell: no problem, i had a great time ,looking forward to the next one :)02:27
jjesseRiddell: you guys in plymouth already?02:28
Riddellyes, arrived this evening02:28
Riddellwe played the Canonical IRC Bingo game02:28
jjessewhich is?02:28
Riddella game of bingo with canonical names and you have to match 5 in a row of irc names02:29
jjessesounds like fun02:29
nixternalhowdy jjesse02:31
jjessehowdy nixternal02:31
Riddellhi hdevalence02:32
hdevalencehey guys, I want to experiment with kde/qt, but i think my moc is broken02:32
hdevalencehey02:32
Riddellhdevalence: are you using qmake?02:33
hdevalenceRiddell: either qmake or when I follow the instructions on the kde techbase tutorials or when i try to build someone else's program from source with ./configure and then make..02:34
hdevalencenone work02:34
hdevalenceand I have the -dev packages installed02:34
Riddellhdevalence: qt 3 or qt4?02:36
hdevalenceRiddell: Both.02:36
hdevalenceRiddell: Could that be what's causing the problem?02:37
nixternalseele: what template do you use for wireframing?02:37
Riddellhdevalence: it could be calling the moc from the wrong qt indeed02:37
hdevalenceRiddel: Adept says I have libqt4-dev but I don't see a libqt3-dev02:40
crimsunmissing -mt02:40
crimsun(libqt3-mt-dev)02:41
hdevalenceoh yes I do have that02:41
hdevalenceI also have qt4-dev-tools and qt3-dev-tools02:42
hdevalenceI have all of the kde4 packages except kde4addons and kde4addons-data02:43
crimsunbe aware that if you use ./configure, you need to set the appropriate prefix02:43
crimsunQt prefix, that is.02:43
crimsunI'm surmising you need /usr/share/qt402:44
hdevalencecrimsun: How do I do that?02:44
crimsun--with-qt-dir=/usr/share/qt402:45
hdevalenceI hear that 8.04 will not include kde 4. Is this true?02:48
jjessekde4 will not be a part of the long term support release02:48
jjessethere will be some ISO cretaed that will include KDE4 but not as a part of 8.0402:49
dasKreechhi crimsun02:50
crimsun(hi)02:50
jjessehdevalence: did that answer your question?02:51
hdevalencejjesse: so basically I can get an iso that uses kde3.5.etc OR an iso that uses kde4?02:51
jjessehdevalence: the long term supported version of 8.04 will include kde 302:52
dasKreechJucato or Jucato_: Why UI?02:52
JucatodasKreech: why why UI?02:52
jjesseso if you want long term suport  you need to use 8.0402:52
nixternalhdevalence: you will be able to get a KDE 4 Live CD that is 7.1002:52
Jucato_dasKreech: why why UI?02:52
dasKreechheh02:53
dasKreechI started looking at game design cause it's one of the few places taht still seriously review UI design02:53
dasKreechbtw I think I like the OpenSuse cd more than the Debian KDE4 cd though the Debian is less annoying02:54
JucatodasKreech: I'm referring mostly to desktop GUI02:55
dasKreechI know02:55
dasKreechbut there are generally so many assumptions there it's really annoying02:56
JucatoFitt's law giving you fits? :)02:56
dasKreechheehee02:57
dasKreechHihi ^ ^03:09
dasKreechAnyone played the new pingus?03:09
dasKreechcrimsun: Would I be right in saying that pulseaudio would be a backend to phonon?03:10
* Jucato is confuzzled about what he read about pulseaudio...03:11
dasKreechYeah me too03:11
dasKreech sounds like a copy of Phonon without the multiple backends03:12
Jucatoif I read it correctly (from liquidat) it sits between ALSA and GStreamer/Xine...03:12
Jucatowhile Phonon sits between the app and the backend... so it's not really like Phonon...03:12
dasKreechfeature set sounds like it03:12
Jucatowhich is why I'm confuzzled :)03:12
dasKreechBut yeah it sounds like a backend to phonon03:13
Jucatoor a backend to Xine/Gstreamer... O.o03:13
Riddellpulseaudio is a sound server, a replacement for esd or the mixer part of arts03:13
dasKreechOh03:13
dasKreechnow I am confused03:13
Jucato:D03:13
Tm_TRiddell: sounds evil =)03:13
JucatoI try not to dive into hardware and sound... :)03:13
Riddellxine is mostly just a decoder, while gstreamer is a framework to do decoding or encoding03:13
* dasKreech laughs03:32
dasKreechI told a friend that feisty was really solid but lacked a lot of nice features whereas gutsy has lots of features but bugs sprinkled around the place03:32
dasKreech he responded: So it became Windows?03:32

Jucatohow's life so far? :D07:37
Hobbseetoo much crap to do :(07:37
Hobbseeapart from that, good :)07:38
Jucatoheheh07:38
* Jucato has a lot of stuff to do... but can't figure out how/when/where to start :/07:38
Hobbseesame here, pretty much07:40
Hobbseestart with the stuff that needs doing first07:40
* Jucato thinks hard...07:42
JucatoI should probably do... hm.. chocolate!07:42
Hobbseemmm...chocolate...07:47
Tonio_hi everyone10:11
Tonio_Riddell: ping ?10:11
Hobbseehe'll be asleep10:11
Tonio_ah ok10:12
Tonio_Hobbsee: did you notice the hudge criticisms dolphin by default receives ?10:12
Tonio_Hobbsee: we should have removed the default mimetype association as we suggested :(10:13
Tonio_Hobbsee: and I hope that'll be done for hardy10:13
HobbseeTonio_: i havent, no10:13
Tonio_it's too buggy and misses too many features to be used by default, ihmo10:13
Tonio_or in any case we should provide a way so that people can switch back to konqueror graphically10:14
LureTonio_: there is a way: remove dolphin package10:15
Tonio_Lure: which is not nice imho10:15
LureTonio_: why not - if they do not like it, they can remove it10:16
Tonio_Lure: coding a little component chooser kcm as there is for the web browser for example, that would be nice10:16
Tonio_Lure: hum, sure they can remove it10:16
Tonio_Lure: btw, I think that the default file manager has to be as stable as possible10:17
Tonio_Lure: and honnestly dolphin lacks too many features (ark integration) and is too buggy to be used by default10:17
Tonio_Lure: don't you think ?10:17
Tonio_Lure: there are a lot of criticisms over the web concerning that choice10:18
HobbseeTonio_: tbh, i havent been regularly using kubuntu since the release10:20
LureTonio_: I do my file mgmt in command line, so I do not cosider myself to be appropriate to make a decision on this ;-)10:20
Tonio_Lure: hehe ;)10:21
* Lure is wondering if somebody can kick Hobbsee out of this channel ;-)10:21
Jucato!d3lphin10:21
ubotuDolphin, or more properly D3lphin, is the new default file manager for Kubuntu 7.10 Gutsy Gibbon. If you would like to make Konqueror your default file manager again, go to Konqueror - Settings menu - Configure Konqueror - File Associations and change the association for inode/directory and inode/system_directory to Konqueror at the top rather than Dolphin.10:21
Tonio_Lure: I tried to use dolphin all day long, it quickly becomes pretty hard....10:21
LureTonio_: ^^^ that is not that bad10:21
Tonio_Lure: my mother would never come to this :)10:22
Lurethanks Hobbsee - i was expecting it ;-)10:22
Tonio_Lure: a way to graphically choose the default would be nice10:22
LureJucato: can we add something like this also to release notes and kubuntu.org?10:22
JucatoTonio_, Lure: considering that the lead d3lphin developer seems to have stopped working on d3lphin, and since Hardy will be LTS, it might not be a good idea to leave it as default... unless we're willing to maintain d3lphin....10:22
HobbseeLure: :)10:22
Jucatos/lead/lone/10:23
Tonio_Lure: the reason I suggested to remove this as default was the lacking of this10:23
Tonio_Jucato: exactly10:23
Tonio_Jucato: if we can fix the bugs on it, then keep it10:23
Tonio_Jucato: but it's unlikely to be done I suspect....10:24
JucatoTonio_: too many bugs, too many features lacking...10:24
Tonio_Jucato: features lacking -> appart from ark integration I don't agree10:24
Tonio_Jucato: bugs -> I definatelly agree10:25
* Jucato considers lacking features as bugs too :P10:25
* Hobbsee considers Jucato a bug :P10:25
Jucatoimho, it's not really worth it, and indirectly biases users against dolphin in kde4...10:25
JucatoHobbsee: please don't eat me :)10:25
Hobbseemmm....tasty10:25
Jucatonoooo!!!10:25
* Hobbsee nibbles on Jucatofingers10:26

SeregaI have a suspiction my kubuntu-devel maillist subscription doesn't work :(12:27
SeregaI have post two messages, but haven't recevied even my own letters12:29
Seregacould anybody say me: how many letters was in kubuntu-devel during last 3-4 days?12:30
Jucatoyou don't receive your own messages afaik12:30

Jucatohaha that's not from me. can't vouch for it either12:43
Jucatojust came across it :)12:44
SeregaJucato: sounds like sponsoring kubuntu :)12:46
Jucatoor just one developer to work for a private company :)12:46
Hobbseei'd say the latter12:47
Hobbseelooks interesting, though12:47
SeregaJucato: but as I understand they should share their changes with community12:47
Jucatothey should :)12:48
Hobbseewell, the post-config app easily could be12:49

JucatoHobbsee: yes. adept strikes again12:59
JucatoI don't blame them though12:59
Jucatothat has been one of the most reported bug/complaint since I used Kubuntu...13:00
Hobbseeadept doesnt *do* autoremove, does it?13:00
Jucatono afaik.. but it doesn't warn you if something will remove everything as well :)13:01
Jucatoif something, somehow, triggers a removal of a lot of packages, the only way you're going to get a clue that it's going to remove a lot of packages, is through the status bar...13:02
Hobbseeoh, true13:02
dasKreechoh hmm13:02
dasKreechnever thought of that13:02
Hobbseeyes, i've long wished adept would actually show me the damned console, for big things.13:02
dasKreechI always check myself13:02
dasKreechJust part of hitting appy changes13:03
Jucatonot many people actually expect that they would have to click on Review changes on their own13:03

manchickenAh.20:49
nixternalI got some messages back from LP about some packages not building, which, besides the lpia ones, were the i386 ones...it seems their deps hadn't completed building before they were uploaded20:50
SeregaRiddell: did you read my recent message in mailing list? I just feel some frustration and dunno what to do20:50
RiddellSerega: I don't think so, I'm behind on my e-mail20:52
Riddellwhat's the subject?20:52
