jjessekwwii: just wanted to say i love the look of hardy.... even though it isn't all black like i read on a blog during UDS-Boston02:08

nixternalhttps://wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/KDE4MigrationDistroCollab02:34
nixternal^^ that is what I have thus far for distro connections02:34
nixternalstill need to add some more... now we need to create exactly what we want to communicate to the distros as far as what we are seeking and attempting to do02:35
nixternalthus far, openSUSE, Debian, and Fedora are the most transparent with Gentoo right behind02:36
nixternalMandriva, PC Linux OS, and Mepis are either a) non-existant, or b) not transparent at all02:36

ScottK2nixternal: What did we decide?03:05
cheguevaraoff to sleep03:31
cheguevaragood night03:31
yuriynixternal: fedora's plan doesn't sound "similar to ours" at all03:35
ScottK2What's Fedora's plan?03:37
hadshttps://wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/KDE4MigrationDistroCollab03:37
yuriyScottK2: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/FeatureKDE403:37
ScottK2Agreed.  Not like ours at all.03:40
ScottK2Of course being a beta distro for RHEL, they can do stuff like that.03:40
yuriyooh this is interesting though: http://trolltech.com/products/qt/lifecyclestatement03:42
yuriymentioned in the fedora plan, qt3 is no longer supported03:42
yuriyi'm surprised that was never brought up in the LTS discussion03:42
ScottK2We don't reallyl get qt from Trolltech though.  We get it from KDE (I think).03:43
yuriyhmm really? you mean like their qt-copy?03:45
yuriyregardless, it's a valid point for canonical to not want to support kde303:46
ScottK2I mean as long as KDE is supporting KDE3, they'll have to pay attention to qt.03:46
ScottK2yuriy: I don't really care about their reasons.  KDE4 is not something I'm really caring about right now, so this shift in plans basically makes Kubuntu Hardy irrelevant to me.03:47
nixternal"Their plan is similar to ours and that is to utilize the ~/.kde directory for KDE 4"04:14
nixternalso it is in fact similar to our in that aspect04:14
nixternalthey are going to migrate as well, and haven't figured out just yet how to go about doing it04:15
ScottK2I think name the KDE4 packages KDE and let a few KDE3 packages live is a different plan.04:21
ScottK2So we're going to put KDE4 in .kde now?04:21
nixternalnot right now we aren't04:22
nixternalsomething for hardy+104:22
ScottK2Ah.04:22
ScottK2OK.  I feel better04:22
nixternalbut creating a migration tool will take some time, so it is better to start researching and collaborating now04:22
jjessehow will upgrading from 7.10 to 8.04 work?  will people automatically get kde4 a a default?04:30
ScottK2jjesse: I really hope not.  That would be a bit suprising.04:39
jjessewhat is the correct wya to reference dolphin in kde4?  dolphin or dolph!n04:39
jjesseor something else04:39
ScottKGood night all04:40
jjessenight ScottK04:40
nixternalif you have kde3, you will keep kde304:43
nixternalg'nite ScottK204:43
jjessehrm ok, so on my gutsy install i have kde3 and kde4 running so when i upgrade to hardy what will be my default?04:43
nixternalneither04:44
jjesse?04:44
nixternala dist-upgrade is going to upgrade what you have and install only new things that need to be installed04:44
nixternalkde4 wont' replace kde3 and kde3 won't replace kde4, they will continue working side-by-side with Hardy04:44
jjessegargh ok that's not how i understood it04:44
nixternalit won't be until hardy+1 that there could be a full replacement of kde3 by kde404:44
nixternalwe are planning on a KDE 3.5.9 in the next month or so, so we aren't going to be getting rid of it04:45
jjessehrmmm04:46
nixternalif you don't have kde4 when hardy is release, then only kde3 will get updated...kde4 will only update if you have kde4 packages installed and they will continue to run the same way04:48
nixternalhope that clarifies a little better04:48
jjessemakes things way more complicated04:48
nixternalwhy is that?04:48
jjessethinking purely from documentation standpoint both official ubunt ubook and also the help04:48
nixternalahh, hehe, tell me about it04:48
nixternalwell not more complicated, just a hell of a lot more work :)04:49
jjessehow do i write a chapter that focus on both kde 3.5.X plus 4.X when the user might one or the other04:49
jjessevery frustrating04:49
nixternalI would stick with KDE 3.5.x for the chapter with maybe a page or two on the availability of KDE 4.x and how it can run side-by-side so the reader can play with it if he/she wants to04:50
nixternalthen again, having a little extra info on kde 4.x with some screenshots will make the Official Ubuntu book the first one with KDE 4.x info :)04:50
nixternalI am willing to give you a hand on that if you would like it04:51
* jjesse is just frustrated04:52
Jucatojjesse: I suggest you take both his hands... heck his arms too!04:52
* Jucato goes back to bed, trying to shake of the asthma...04:52
nixternalouch, get better soon!04:52
* jjesse wishes Jucato a better day04:52
Jucatothis week I discovered another great asthma-inducer... stress and tension :/04:53

Riddellthis applet should show them if cups picks them up10:15
aantipopoh with a different usb slot it works, sorry10:17
davmor2Riddell: beings as I've finished my course now I have updated my main machine to hardy.  So I'm going to reinstall Kubuntu on my test machine and then try so about 15mins if that's okay10:18
Riddelldavmor2: groovy10:18
davmor2I can afford to leave Kub on my test machine then :) once the test are out of the way.  That way if you need anything testing just let me know ;)10:19
Riddellseele: when you get a moment you may want to check that applet for any obvious usability issues, it's not the full config tool we discussed yet but it should be one day10:34
davmor2Riddell: network no issues10:34
Riddelldavmor2: network printers show up?10:34
davmor2yes10:35
Riddelldavmor2: excellent excellent10:35
davmor2just trying usb need to reboot first though (bloody updates ;))10:36
mhbdoes the app configure network printers, too?10:37
hungermhb: Do those need configuration? All the CUPS printers I use seem to work out of the box.10:37
davmor2mhb: No cups just sees it10:38
davmor2Riddell: right plugging in now fingers crossed10:38
mhbmeaning "without any sort of detection"? I doubt it :o)10:38
Riddellipp network printers should be magically picked up through zeroconf10:40
davmor2Riddell: nothing :(  shouldn't a notify window of popped up?10:40
Riddellif it's not on zeroconf or ipp you need to configure it manually which can be done in the old kde printer setup kcontrol or wait until I write the full config frontend for this10:40
davmor2Riddell:  I'm going to install all the updates and try again hang on10:42
Riddelldavmor2: it should popup a bubble in the systray10:42
Riddellit won't if the printer is already configured though10:42
davmor2no it didn't :(10:42
Riddellhumbug10:42
davmor2give me a minute though I'll run the update remove all printers and try again for you10:43
Riddellyou may need to restart hal and cups after removing all printers10:44
davmor2np10:45
davmor2there were like 212 updates it maybe relying on one :)10:45
iRonRiddell: hi! where should i put modified failsafe* scripts? they are now located in /etc/gdm/.. may be put them in /etc/X11/failsafe/ or /etc/X11/bulletproofx ?10:50
iRonRiddell: this scripts installed with x11-common package.. so there is no need to touch gdm package at all10:50
RiddelliRon: /etc/X11/.. seems sensible10:53
iRonRiddell: there are 4 files -- failsafeBlacklist failsafeXinit failsafeXServer failsafeDexconf10:54
iRonRiddell: so put all of them to /etc/X11 ?10:55
iRonRiddell: or in some subdir ?10:55
RiddelliRon: /etc/X11 seems fine to me10:57
iRonok10:57
davmor2Riddell: like the new backdrop  right trying again11:04
davmor2Riddell: Not a thing11:05
Riddellhumbug11:05
davmor2Riddell: just done dmesg | tail and the printer is recognised but no auto setup sorry afk for about half an hour now11:07
Riddelldavmor2: applet is running?  you restarted hal?11:08
davmor2Riddell: I restarted the machine completely11:11
davmor2then plugged the printer back in got to go brb11:11
Riddellok, thanks11:12

davmor2Riddell: is there anything else I can tell you that might help?11:42
Riddelldavmor2: not really, I just need to find a printer I can plug in and test11:45
Riddelldavmor2: you could remove the printer and run system-config-printer-applet (the gnome one) and see what happens11:45
davmor2can you get to wolves I got a spare :)11:45
RiddellI'm in London11:46
davmor2no then11:46

davmor2wow that transendental meditation really works ;)11:47
Riddellwho wants to talk about Kubuntu at Developer Week?12:12
\shDeveloper Week?12:12
* Hobbsee can't talk12:12
Tm_TRiddell: I like to talk, though, am I qualified?12:13
RiddellTm_T: should think so, just introduce what we do and how people can help then answer questions12:13
Riddell\sh: a holbachism12:14
Tm_TRiddell: hmm, anything I can read about what it's about this week?12:14
Tonio_Riddell: I'll release the new kdesudo toonight12:19
RiddellTonio_: what's new in it?12:20
Tonio_Riddell: uses kprocess instead of kshellprocess12:20
Tonio_Riddell: therefore supports for applications that detach themselves, like amarok and k3b12:20
Tonio_Riddell: also better code with very little main.cpp file12:20
Tonio_Riddell: and also support for super stupid commands like ./kdesudo/kdesudo "konqueror http://www.planetemu.net" "file1.html file2.html"12:21
Tonio_management of quoted args is now fully compatible with gksu12:21
Tonio_the only thing is that usetarminal kdesu option....12:22
Tonio_Riddell: any idea what it does ?12:22
Tonio_useterminal12:22
Tonio_the original kdesu -t in fact12:22
RiddellI'd have thought it would start the command in a console12:22
Tm_Tbash commandfoofoo perhaps?12:22
Tm_Tsomething like forces the process to have own terminal session (bash/sh)12:23
Tonio_Riddell: yep but it doesn't.....12:27
Tonio_Riddell: playing with kdesu I can't see what this option does....12:27
Tonio_Riddell: I'd like to implement it correctly, but I think I have to check kdesu code to guess what it does exactly12:27
Tonio_Tm_T: if it was using the useShell kprocess option, then detaching apps wouldn't work with it, as this would cause a process end....12:28
Tonio_Tm_T: still lost on that point ;)12:28
RiddellTonio_: if it doesn't work in kdesu I don't support it's very important12:36
Tonio_yep12:38
Tonio_Riddell: well at the moment I just make -t react like -s aka no passwd saving12:39
Tonio_Riddell: kdesu -t is supposed to not save the passwd12:39
Riddelloh, -t enables terminal output12:39
Riddellkdesu hides stdout by default, I've no idea why and infact I patched it not to12:39
Riddellso just ignore -t12:40
Tonio_ahhhhhhhhh that's it12:45
Tonio_Riddell: I also changed kdesudo to display stdout12:45
Tonio_Riddell: that's better for problems like yesterday to figure out what happens12:45
Tonio_Riddell: well as kdesudo is supposed to be perfectly compatible with kdesu, I would suggest upstream release respects the real -t thing and that we patch it12:46
Tonio_Riddell: agree on that approach ?12:46
RiddellTonio_: I don't follow12:46
Tonio_Riddell: you mean ?12:46
RiddellI don't understand you12:46
Tonio_well people might want to use kdesudo on opensuse for example12:46
Riddellhiding stdout is silly12:46
Tonio_so maybe respect the original kdesu way to work...12:46
Tonio_on the other hand, that's true ;)12:47
RiddellI've no idea why it would do it and it's just confusing for users12:47
RiddellI don't think either programme should do it12:47
Tonio_Riddell: with -t, is the password asked graphically or command line ?12:47
RiddellTonio_: graphically12:47
Tonio_k12:47
Tonio_Riddell: shouldn't we reupload kdeutils ?12:55
Tonio_Riddell: ark is broken still latest libqt3-mt12:55
Tonio_Tm_T: interested in testing ?12:57
Tonio_Tm_T: kdesudo I mean ;)12:57
RiddellTonio_: go ahead12:57
RiddellTonio_: there were a bunch listed in that bug12:57
RiddellTonio_: see comment 11 https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qt-x11-free/+bug/18500412:58

Tonio_Riddell: agree for kmail but I can't see any difference with konqueror13:00
Tonio_will test ark locally before upload13:00
Tonio_Riddell: wanna test quickly kdesudo of can I upload ?13:01
Tonio_Riddell: I did a bunch of tests and everything seems okay for me13:01
RiddellTonio_: just upload, we'll get complains soon enough if it doesn't work :)13:01
Tonio_hehe, true :)13:01
Tonio_Riddell: we really should make a backport to gutsy too..... the gutsy version of kdesudo has a lot of bugs, like breaking in systemsettings....13:02
mhbhi Tonio_13:02
Tonio_hey mhb :)13:03
mhbTonio_: have you read the meeting logs from yesterday? Especially the part about kdesudo?13:03
Tonio_mhb: nope13:04
Tonio_mhb: the meeting was too late for me, I had to wake early to go to work :)13:04
Tonio_mhb: url please ?13:04
mhbhttp://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2008/01/23/%23ubuntu-meeting.html13:05
mhbsearch for "kdesudo"13:05
Tonio_mhb: oki13:10
Tonio_mhb: basically porting kdesudo to kde4 is planned13:10
Tonio_mhb: make kdesu to support correctly sudo is pretty hard as it's codebase is completly different13:10
Tonio_mhb: also is the sudo config file13:10
Tonio_mhb: it is way easier maintaining an external aplication (not kubuntu dedicated btw, kdesudo can work on any distribution) than make kdesu to work correctly with sudo13:11
Tonio_mhb: simple example : I can do kdesudo myself13:11
mhbI'm pretty sure it is.13:11
Tonio_mhb: Riddell, which is a million times better coder than me, couldn't get kdesu to support sudo correctly13:11
Tonio_mhb: I didn't say impossible, but way harder13:11
mhbyeah.13:12
mhbI guess I need to revisit the kdesu code again.13:12
Tonio_mhb: or that would mean kdesu uses sudo like a wrapper13:12
Tonio_mhb: means a big if sudo, else if su13:12
Tonio_I don't see the point in doing this.....;13:12
Tonio_Riddell: any opinion on that point ?13:12
Tonio_Riddell: external application is better ihmo13:13
Tonio_mhb: especially since the way they use the same parameters is completly different13:13
Tonio_mhb: or example, with -p (priority) and sudo you have to use "nice" etc.....13:13
Tonio_that would mean doubling everything in the code, and would result a pretty ugly thing13:14
Tonio_mhb: as I said, not impossible, but probably way more complicated for the same result13:14
mhbI guess so. Thanks for the reply.13:15
mhbTonio_: is the code in LP trunk branch up to date?13:16
Tonio_mhb: not at all13:17

jpatrickRiddell: ping13:43
Tonio_rivo: fell free to close the bug if it works, I'll take a few minutes to propose the backport....13:43
Tonio_rivo: I hope it'll work this time........13:45
Tonio_rivo: I changed lots of things in the way the process is executed, and according to my tests, it works much better this time13:45
Tonio__StefanS_: the jumping icon is fixed :)13:46
Tonio__StefanS_: so don't waste your time on this13:46
jpatrickRiddell: yet another little change: http://people.ubuntuwire.com/~jpatrick/patches/kubuntu-www-2.diff13:48
Tonio_Riddell: next kdesudo will probably be the kde4 port13:48
Tonio_Riddell: but first I have some packaging stuff to do, as well as finishing the kio-apt13:48
Tonio_Riddell: would you like kdesudo-kde4 bafore hardy is released ?13:48
jpatrickTonio_: to make stuff like Adept work, yes please! :)13:49
seeleRiddell: printing applet?  how do i get it?13:50
jpatrickseele: https://code.launchpad.net/~kubuntu-members/system-config-printer/kde-port I think13:51
Tonio_jpatrick: don't forget not everyone is using kde4 atm :)13:53
Tonio_jpatrick: I prefer to focus on kde3 except if Riddell asks me to do so :)13:54
Tonio_kde4 on hardy isn't that important for me....13:54
* ScottK2 walks over and stands next to Tonio_13:55
Tonio_it is just there to prepare hardy+1, that's all ;)13:55

JucatoTonio_: he means you two are of the same mind13:57
Tonio_ScottK2: ho atalking about kde4 :)13:57
Jucato:D13:57
Tonio_bah, I'm concernined by kde4, but everyone forget's about kde313:58
Tonio_there are LOTS of kde3 bugs to fix before the release13:58
Tonio_if the plan is to forget about kde3, let's forget about hardy and go for a 12 month cycle release with hardy +1 directly...13:58
Tonio_that's my concern13:59
ScottK2Tonio_: Maybe it's just you and me merging in 3.5.9 when it comes out.13:59
Tonio_sure I'd like to port kdesudo, package all kde-apps I can find for kde4 etc.... but I have other things to do on kde3 that are prior to kde4 imho13:59
_StefanS_Tonio_: thanks for the info on the icon14:00
Tonio_ScottK2: no, Riddell didn't forget about kde3 :) he is paid for this haha !14:00

Tonio_rivo: hu ??????14:03

Tonio_rivo: output might help :)14:09
Tonio_mornfall: making adept to work is important for me :)14:09
rivoTonio_: what if you also rm /var/tmp/kde*14:09
rivoTonio_: and maybe /root/.DCOP*14:10
Tonio_rivo: lemme test14:10
rivoTonio_: yeah I have output now but it's the same as in bug report14:10
Tonio_I have no .DCOP in root14:10
Tonio_rivo: and /var/temp is empty14:10
Tonio_rivo: can you paste me the output on my pastebin please ?14:10
rivoTonio_: http://pastebin.ca/870876 is the script I used to wipe out stuff before testing14:12
Tonio_rivo: hard to fix if I can't reproduce the problem14:12
Tonio_lemme test again14:13
rivoTonio_: http://pastebin.ca/870880 is the output I get when running systemsettings, clicking on date&time and then on admin mode button14:14
Tonio_rivo: it can't work with your script since you remove your .ICEAuthority file14:18
Tonio_rivo: this one is used to have access to the X session, whatever the user is14:18
Tonio_rivo: it is passed to sudo to make the -u option to work14:18
rivoTonio_: I run the script, then kill x server and then log in again14:18
Tonio_okay I've just done it ;)14:18
Tonio_here we go :14:18
rivoTonio_: and yep, there's a new .ICEauthority file then14:19

rivohrmh, really weird14:19

Tonio_rivo: ps faux | grep -i dcop14:23
Tonio_rivo: can you paste that to me please ?14:23
Tonio_rivo: The strange thing is that you already have a dcop server running as root14:23
Tonio_rivo: which doesn't make sense.....14:24
Tonio_rivo: also you are the only one reporting the bug at the moment, so I suspect something going scary between that dcop server and kprocess14:24
Tonio_rivo: gksu is different, as it doesn't use kprocess to start the command, btw14:24
Tonio_that would explain what happens14:24
rivoTonio_: http://pastebin.ca/87089414:24
rivoTonio_: dcop seems to be started after running kdesudo for the first time since I get the error about dcopserver already been running only after I have already tried with kdesudo once14:25
rivoTonio_: e.g. starting from second time I use kdesudo14:25
Tonio_rivo: so what if you kill the 2 root running dcopservers ?14:26
Tonio_and then start the command again, and plaste me the output please14:26
* Tonio_ is going crazy with that bug.....14:26
rivoTonio_: kill: then I get the same errors again and a new root's dcopserver is started14:27
Tonio_rivo: I did all the steps..... killed the .ICEauthority file, did everything as you said, no way I can reproduce....14:28
rivoTonio_: can't you try installing a new system from gutsy livecd?14:28
Tonio_rivo: it would be interesting to let other people to test to confirm that's a kdesudo bug, cause it looks to me like either a kde issue, or a system issue somehow14:28
Tonio_rivo: my system is a kubuntu by default, I tried on several machines ar work, some gutsy and even feisty based, no way to reproduce....14:29
rivoTonio_: kde issue: maybe indeed14:29
Tonio_rivo: at home I only have one computer and that's a mac, livecd not workin on it14:29
rivoTonio_: is there anything else I could test?14:29
Tonio_rivo: hard to say, we tested everything I guess....14:29
rivook... would it help if I tried with hardy livecd? or with gutsy alternate cd?14:30
rivoTonio_: because you mentioned something about it possibly being livecd bug...14:30
Tonio_rivo: lemme test something...... I have an idea14:32
Tonio_rivo: I'll give you a patched kdesudo please test with that one14:32
rivoTonio_: ok14:33
Tonio_rivo: 3 minutes for the package14:40
Tonio_rivo: I added a few debug infos in the code14:40
iRonTonio_: rivo: may there is an issue with .kde user settings? may be rivo should create new user and then try kdesudo ?14:58
Tonio_iRon: I think he already tested that14:58
rivoyup, I'm already wiping out my .kde directory14:58
iRoni remember this bug was in first hardy alpha's.. or it was gutsy..15:00
iRonin current hardy everything is fine15:00
iRonTonio_: i have gutsy livecd.. so could try to reproduce on gutsy15:02

nosrednaekimRiddell: desktop-effects-kde is on launchpad https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~kubuntu-users/guidance/desktop-effects-kde15:04

nosrednaekimRiddell: mhb says it works for him, but I think it might have problems with a kde4 only system, since it stores its config file in .kde. I'm going to fix that though15:08

iRonmhb: ping15:14
rivoTonio_: not personally but I know people who have had problems with it on multiple machines15:14
Tonio_rivo: yeah, but most problems reported are due to kdesudo 1.5, with buggy args parsing15:15
Tonio_rivo: this one is very specific, rivo is the only person I know having that issue15:15
rivoTonio_: ok, I'll tell someone to test with your latest package15:16
Tonio_s/rivo/you ;)15:16
Tonio_rivo: sure15:16
Tonio_rivo: well as long as they use gutsy, bugs are possible, since the args parsins is broken15:16
Tonio_what I don't understand is your problem15:16
Tonio_everything is set to work15:16
Tonio_you have no dcop server running in the first place15:16
Tonio_and klauncher complains there is a running dcop server15:16

Tm_TTonio_: yes, unfortunately I'm not at home atm :( (about testing)15:17
Tonio_rivo: what would be super is to try to confirm the bug on other machines15:17
nosrednaekimyeah.... erase the .DCOP* in your home DIR15:17

Tonio_nosrednaekim: he has the problem, not me...15:18
nosrednaekimwhats the problem exactly? I think I might have the same thing happening15:19
Tonio_nosrednaekim: on gutsy, remove everything related to dcop or kde in /root15:20
Tonio_then take kdesudo 2.0 and install it15:20
nosrednaekimRiddell: DCC or email?15:20
Tonio_remove your .ICEAtuthority15:20

Riddellnosrednaekim: debuild -S15:30
Riddellwell, debuild to compile it15:30
nosrednaekimthen dpkg -i to install, ok15:31
Riddellyes15:32

nosrednaekimooops.... sorry15:42
nosrednaekimresent15:45
Riddellnosrednaekim: thanks, blogged!15:49
Tonio_Riddell: little question concerning hardware15:49
Tonio_Riddell: my laptop has 2 battery but guidance reports 2 batteries are present15:50
Tonio_the second one is emptying half as fast as the first..... weird as hell !15:50
Tonio_Riddell: is hal the place to look at ?15:50
Riddellmy laptop has 1 battery and guidance reports 2, I'd be more worried at that15:51
Riddellplasma does the same, so probably a hal issue15:51
nosrednaekimisn't KDEHOME set anymore?15:56
Riddellno16:05
Riddellyou can use kde-config --localprefix or kde4-config --localprefix16:06

Tonio_wasn't simple-patchsys16:21
Tonio_Hobbsee: no, stupid of me...16:22
Tonio_will we use quilt by default for kde4 packages ?16:22
Riddellwe already do, following debian-qt-kde16:22
Tonio_Riddell: :'(16:22
RiddellI don't entirely understand it though16:23
Tonio_Riddell: I HATE quilt16:23
Riddellfeel free to change to simple-patchsys if you get confused16:23
Tonio_Riddell: 6 commands just to write a 2 lines patches16:23
Tonio_Riddell: sure I'll do :)16:23
Tonio_Riddell: quilt is kinda supa-geek tool16:23
Tonio_Riddell: I don't understand why debian decided to use it....16:24
Tonio_Riddell: not to say it is really badly documented16:24
mhbTonio_: have you uploaded your changes to kdesudo to the bzr branch yet?16:30
mhbTonio_: I'd like to do something awesome, and I need your sources for it.16:32
mhbcould I have a stupid question? why are some libraries named "libnm-glib0" ?16:34
mhbI mean the zero at the end - it makes remembering the name quite hard.16:35
ScottK2mhb: Library soname.16:35

tlaytongood afternoon!  does anybody have a link to nosrednaekim's source for easy compiz setup mentioned in jriddell's blog?18:56
jpatricktlayton: https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~kubuntu-users/guidance/desktop-effects-kde18:57
tlaytonjpatrick: thanx a bunch18:59
jpatrickyou're welcome :)19:00
_StefanS_Riddell: hey, we need to set the text color on the kdm login screen to black as well19:00
_StefanS_Riddell: its not really clear using the current colors (greyish.)19:01
_StefanS_Tonio_: was that icon fix as oneliner ? :)19:01
_StefanS_Tonio_: a/as19:01
tlaytonjpatrick: just run 'desktop-effects-kde', no parms?  i'm getting an IndexError: list index out of range19:05
jpatricktlayton: best talk to nosrednaekim as he works on it :)19:06
nosrednaekimuhhh oh.. problems with my thing?19:06
tlaytonjpatrick: np, thx19:06
nosrednaekimtlayton: AFAIK...only desktop-effects-kde4 works19:06
nosrednaekimtlayton: and in addition, place that "25check-compiz" file in /etc/X11/Xsession.d19:07
Tonio__StefanS_: switching from setUseShell from true to false fixed the issue19:07
Tonio__StefanS_: but required that  a lot of code change :)19:08
_StefanS_Tonio_: oh ok19:08
_StefanS_Tonio_: great it was fixed19:08
Tonio__StefanS_: btw I'm porting to kde4 :/19:08
Tonio__StefanS_: hard job for me19:08
tlaytonnosrednaekim: ok, i'm in kde 3 right now.  when does the compizasWM file get created?19:09
mhbTonio_: it could be easier if you actually did the work transparently online in a branch :o)19:09
nosrednaekimtlayton: when you hit apply after selecting an option other than "no effects"19:09
mhbTonio_: actually, I wanted to check out your code to find out how hard the porting would be, but you haven't commited it yet, or have you?19:09
Tonio_mhb: shhhhhhhhh, that's to force myself to learn :)19:10
Tonio_mhb: nope I haven't19:10
Tonio_mhb: lemme do it19:10
mhbnosrednaekim: by the way, I hate to be pedantic, but you haven't read the bzr quick start guide, have you?19:10
Tonio_mhb: just  second19:10
mhbTonio_: sure19:10
mhbTonio_: I have a lot of learning to do anyway19:10
mhbjust do it soon, please :o)19:11
nosrednaekimmhb: uhhh why? did I mess something up... and yes, I did read something of the sort.19:11
mhbnosrednaekim: just a joke :o)19:11
* nosrednaekim wipes his forehead...19:12
Tonio_mhb commited19:12
mhbnosrednaekim: http://doc.bazaar-vcs.org/bzr.dev/en/mini-tutorial/index.html19:12
Tonio_mhb: what is done atm : automake to cmake is finished19:12
mhbnosrednaekim: if you have read this, the first thing there is $ bzr whoami "John Doe <john.doe@gmail.com>"19:13
Tonio_mhb: main.cpp builds.... I am on the kdesdo class definition and inheritance with kpassworddialog19:13
Tonio_once that is done, it shouldn't be that long19:13
mhbit should take only a couple hours anyway19:13
mhbKDE4 is still KDE.19:13
Tonio_bah lots of things have changed especially on the kpassworddialog19:15
Tonio_mhb: looks like we cannot for example set the application icon....19:17
nosrednaekimmhb: yep, I read that... and by the time I was finished reading it, I forgot to go do that.19:17
Tonio_mhb: http://api.kde.org/4.x-api/kdelibs-apidocs/kdeui/html/classKPasswordDialog.html19:17
nosrednaekimi'll go to it now :0)19:17
Tonio_mhb: nothing about the icon here19:17
mhbTonio_: what does void KPasswordDialog::setPixmap  do?19:18
* Tonio_ hides.......19:18
mhbnosrednaekim: it's just a minor thing, but I noticed it in the commits...19:19
mhbnosrednaekim: so I thought I'd tell you in a pedantic way ... just kidding :o)19:19
nosrednaekimtlayton: does it work?19:20
Tonio_mhb: porting isn't everything, we also have to make the options compatible with kdesu-kde4 ;)19:21
tlaytonnosrednaekim: yes, in kde4. :) can i use the fusion-icon with it?19:21
mhbit does work in KDE4?19:22
mhbthat's great news19:22
nosrednaekimtlayton: I don't know....I didn't test that.19:22
nosrednaekimmhb: thats what i've been doing all my testing on... i'm wondering if it works on kde3 :)19:22
* mhb pats nosrednaekim on the back19:22
mhbit does.19:23
mhbthat's where I did my testing.19:23
nosrednaekimgreat..19:23
tlaytonmhb: your talking about desktop-effects-kde, right? what libs are required? i'm getting an IndexError19:24
nosrednaekimtlayton: does fusion-icon set the default WM?19:24
mhbtlayton: please post the error message somewhere19:24
mhbtlayton: almost no libs are required, just the obvious python-qt419:24
nosrednaekimtlayton: to be clear, you are running "python desktop-effects-kde"?19:26
tlaytonnosrednaekim: no, just 'desktop-effects-kde4' (in kde4). hold on for fusion-icon. it works a bit. i need to try again19:28
tlaytonmhb: give me a few, i'll need to log back into kde319:28
mhbtlayton: sure thing.19:28
mhbnosrednaekim: perhaps we could pimp the dialog up with icons, what do you think?19:28
mhbor does it use icons already?19:29
mhbperhaps they're just not used in KDE3.19:29
nosrednaekimI don't see any in kde419:31

nosrednaekimdon't worry about that19:47
tlaytoni like it. a lot smoother than simple-ccsm19:48
mhbTonio_: confirmed, it's not there19:49
Tonio_mhb: what's annoying is in the .install file, it is correctly written (..../kdesu/*.h)19:50
Tonio_mhb: I suspect we have to fix the packaging19:51
Tonio_the build system sorry19:51
nosrednaekimmhb: are we going do kde3 and qt4?19:51
mhbnosrednaekim: nope19:52
mhbnosrednaekim: please remove the kde3 stubs19:52
nosrednaekimI'll get rid of the kde3 things then19:52
nosrednaekimto stop any more confusion.19:52
mhbwe'll do a kcontrol stub that launches the qt4 one.19:53
Tonio_mhb: if I copy the file manually in /usr/lib/kde4/include/kdesu and build with debuild, it should find it right ?19:56
Tonio_mhb: invalid use of incomplete type «struct KCookie»19:56
Tonio_mhb: bah I'm lost........19:56
Tonio_mhb: that part of the port would require some more accurate with class and so on19:57
Tonio_mhb: should I create a kdesudo-kde4 branch so that you can work on it too ?19:57
mhbthat'd be rad19:57

jpatrickradical19:59
tlaytonnodrednaekim:  in kde3, i choose extra effects, compiz starts fine. then, when i start fusion-icon, it thinks i'm still using kwin, even though the compiz effects are still there20:04
nosrednaekimtlayton: yeah.. they probably use different config files20:06
nosrednaekimtlayton: I'll take a look at fusion-icon and see what I can do20:06
hungerWhy is kmail from kde3 starting up konqueror from kde4?20:06
nosrednaekimwhat does fusion-icon exactly do? just start compiz automatically?20:06
ScottKhunger: Because that's the only kmail we have right now?20:07
nosrednaekimhunger: because konqueror-kde4 is closer in the path...20:07
tlaytonnosrednaekim: cool. since compiz was already started, fusion-icon just started up. when i "change" to compiz, compiz is reloaded. when i chance back to kwin, i now have 16 desktops20:08
nosrednaekimyeah... thats the compiz->kwin problem.20:08
tlaytonnosrednaekim: then switching back to compiz is fine20:09
nosrednaekimtlayton: yup...20:09
Tonio_bzr checkout sftp://bazaar.launchpad.net/~kubuntu-kdesudo/kdesudo/trunk-kde420:10

Tonio_mhb: if you can help on the port that would be awesome !20:11
Tonio_mhb: my current problem is with the kcookie thing20:11
Tonio_mhb: the code will have to change a bit to push the icon that's why the inheritance might look a bit empty for you ;)20:12
Tonio_mhb: I just wanted it not to crash in fact20:12
tlaytonnosrednaekim: the fusion-icon version i'm using is 0.0.0+git20071028-0ubuntu2 (hardy)20:12

ScottKTonio_: Mind if I do the python-qt4 merge?20:22
mhbseele: I get the same error.20:26
hungerThe KDE4 apps have a higher priority than their KDE3 counterparts in KDE3. That sucks.20:26
nosrednaekimhunger: in general or with kubuntu specific apps?20:27
jpatrickhunger: discussed at last meeting (see kubuntu-(users|devel) mailing list for details)20:28
hungernosrednaekim: So far I found KWrite-KDE4 and Konqueror-KDE4 at the top position for stuff.20:28
mhbseele: cd /usr/share/system-config-printer is a workaround for that error.20:29
mhbseele: the problem is, I get a deadlock when launching the applet there.20:31
seelemhb: yeah.. that just happened too20:32

mhbseele: hmm20:38
mhbseele: the other system-config-printer-applet also doesn't do anything useful.20:38
* jpatrick goes for some coffee20:38
mhbseele: you may want to try to plug in your printer while the system-longest-name-ever-kde is running20:39
mhbseele: perhaps something appears when a printer is connected.20:39
seelemhb: why would i need a printer to view the ui?20:40
seelemhb: unfortunately the only printer i have is network20:40
mhbseele: well the idea of this app is to show "printer connected" and configure the printer when you plug it in20:40

Tonio_mhb: btw, the cmake structure seems correct, and main.cpp is okay now21:13
Tonio_mhb: the biggest problem is that kcookie thing21:14

mhbhas anyone noticed that?22:45
nosrednaekimyeah...22:45
iRonmhb: check font DPI settings in kde3 and kde4.. i set manualy to 96dpi in both.. so my fonts are identical in kde3 and kde4.22:46
mhbhmm, yes, 96 dpi feels smaller22:48

mhbthanks iRon22:48
iRonmhb: yw :)22:49
mhbhmm23:17
mhbI've gotten rid of the black, ugly containment you call "panel"...23:18
mhband somehow, the "organize your desk" metaphor appeals to me.23:18
ugaiRon: why not just set the screen width and height in xorg.conf. Xorg will calculate the real dpi23:18
iRonuga: yep.. your sollution is technicaly better.. but mine is more simple :)23:20
ugaif you know the dpi yes23:20
ugaiRon: I had more trouble with color callibration. It seems kde3 obeyed to some older setting, from who knows what app23:21
ugamaybe a kubuntu patch23:21
ugakde4 showed the screen much darker23:21
ugas/color callibration/gamma callibration, rather23:21
ugaiRon: no matter what gamma settings I configured, kde would tweak it when loading23:22
ugait took me ages to figure out what file it was until I removed it23:22
iRoncouldn't help with this.. never used gamma calibration23:22
ugamy monitor is rather dark by default. I couldn't see the taskbar's brighter gradients that limit the buttons23:24
ugait was completely black almost23:24
