ScottKawen_: Will do.  I probably won't look at it much before Saturday.  I'm mostly thrilled fixing apport didn't result in an avalanch of new crashes being reported.00:25
awen_ScottK: the quiet weeks where apport crashes wasn't coming in gave you the time to fix all the bugs ;)00:26
Riddellnixternal: kaffeine codec install maybe, bulletproof X00:26
ScottKHopefully the people that went to the trouble to report crashes manually gave us reasonable coverage.00:26
ScottKnixternal: Don't forget the displayconfig note I gave you.00:26
dasKreechnixternal: Nice pointing out the still open bugs00:27
nixternalwell, it seems with Beta we are just going over the major things in Hardy00:27
nixternalRiddell: do the DVD codecs work with Kaffeine yet?00:30
Riddellnixternal: yes, but xine itself is broken for dvds00:34
RiddelldasKreech: we would do backports same as we currently do for gutsy00:34

jjessedasKreech: didn't know kopete did it00:53
seeleRiddell: is the printer configuration tool planned to be completed really soon?  because it's in the hardy beta and pretty much not operational00:53
jjessethat's cool00:53
jjesseneed to change the book on that i'm sure :(00:53
Riddellseele: no, it'll have to be disabled for this release, I just haven't had enough time to work on it unfortunately00:54
seeleRiddell: will we use the kde3 tool then?  or is it broken?00:54
Riddellseele: kde 3 tool works just not in all situations, and we have the new applet which does the auto-configure stuff and that solves the main problems00:55
Riddellso yes we'll use the kde 3 tool and the new applet00:56
seelewhat is the new applet?  is there a package i can download?00:56
awen_dasKreech: kopete misses irc support on the current kde4 live-cd00:57
Riddellseele: system-config-printer-kde-applet in the system-config-printer-kde package00:57
Riddellseele: same package as the new config tool00:57
dasKreechawen_: >_<00:57
jjessedasKreech: am i stupid and not seeing irc in kopete?00:57
Riddellseele: you should already have it running, if you plug in a new printer it should pop up, also if you print something00:57
=== Czessi_ is now known as Czessi
dasKreechjjesse: apparently it's not there00:58
jjessedangi i thought i saw it once?00:58
awen_jjesse: irc in kopete is missing in kde4 atm... there is already a bug-report against the knetwork-kde4 source00:59
seeleRiddell: yeah, i saw the kprint thing (or whatever it is called) but i only have a network printer and the wizard in Applications:System doesn't work00:59
awen_at least I found the bug report yesterday00:59
Riddellseele: right, network printing is still the problem.  if ipp printer sharing is on it should just work, or you can struggle with the kde 3 setup tool, or you can just system-config-printer-gnome01:00
jjesseinteresting the default home page in firefox when i installed is the firefox welcome page on my gnome hardy its wleocme to ubuntu01:00

apacheloggerRiddell: if we settle the kde4 version of gtk-qt-engine on the kde3 version, should we keep the changelog and document all changes?01:08
Riddellapachelogger: they should be separate packages for now surely01:08
apacheloggeryeah01:08

Riddellnixternal: KDE 4 won't be in shipit, exact method to be decided but just say "CDs available for groups who need it..."01:09
apacheloggerthat sentence was wrong01:09
apacheloggerRiddell: if we use the kde3 version as base for te kde4 packaging01:09

Arbynixternal: just reading the HardyUpgrades page, a few comments if you're interested06:07
Arbythe first section says you can only upgrade to Hardy from 7.1006:07
Arbythen next section describes how to upgrade from Dapper06:08
Arbycould be confusing06:08
Arbymore importantly the instructions for LTS to LTS upgrades are confusing06:10
Arbyif I go adept-manager > manage repositories06:10
ArbyI see the sources.list06:11
Arbythe dapper-proposed repository doesn't appear in that list for me to enable it06:11
Arbyand there is nothing to tell me what it's address should be06:12
ArbyI tried running kdesu "adept_manager --dist-upgrade-devel" but that doesn't work06:12
Arbymaybe it's just me and I've forgotten how to do stuff in dapper06:12
Arbybut thought I should mention it06:13
Arbyfeel free to ping to discuss further06:13
ArbyI'll be at work but I'll try to help06:13
Arby</babbling>06:13
nixternalArby: I am only concerned with the Kubuntu instructions...the rest is for Ubuntu..honestly we should have our own page anyways06:15
Arbyso will the LTS instructions for dapper be different06:17
Arbyor is dapper to hardy not supported for kubuntu06:17
nixternalKubuntu isn't LTS, so anything dealing with LTS doesn't concern us at this point06:17
ArbyI can see people with kubuntu dapper boxes being unhappy about that06:18
nixternalfor Kubuntu, you can only go from Gutsy -> Hardy06:18
Arbybut that discussion has been had06:18

ScottK2Dunno. I didn't look at the bug, I just don't think age based assumptions area good plan.14:43

\shScottK2: I was more thinking about "artsd is evil and we should forget about it"14:44
ScottK2But keep in mind I work on systems in my day job where we never ever mark a bug closed unless we can trace to a fix, so I may be biased.14:44
ScottK2Fair enough.  I think I also transposed won'tfix and invalid when I read it the first time.14:44
seelenosrednaekim: i did.. although it was hard to understand just one screen14:44
seelenosrednaekim: are you modeling it after an existing wizard or app?14:45

\shScottK2: I think it's ok for this special bug, which is no.1 on my list, to know a good and easy workaround...so let us set it to "Won't fix" with a comment to the workaround14:46
nosrednaekimit has a pop up windows for queues, I have an embedded listview14:46

jeroen-had to use the keyboard15:39
jeroen-but can be a local issue15:40
Riddellthat's very strange15:40
jeroen-2: sudo on the command line doesn't work anymore after booting, it gives: sudo: unable to resolve host k-uptown15:40
jeroen-latter one is my hostname15:40
Riddelljeroen-: what does `hostname` report your host as?15:41
jeroen-so if someone has a solution for #2, that would be fine15:41
jeroen-Riddell: k-uptown15:41
jeroen-Riddell: and also kdesu doesn't work15:42

* apachelogger slaps Tm_T16:03
Tm_Tapachelogger: arr, were you looking for kde3->kde4 migration solutions?16:04
apacheloggerTm_T: I guess so16:04
Tm_Troger, I'll be looking for that too I believe16:05
Tm_Tnot now but during summer if not earlier16:05
jeroen-nixternal / Riddell : that was indeed the solution16:06
apacheloggerthe thing is, we ship KDE 4 in hardy :P16:06
jeroen-I assume that will be fixed16:06
Riddelljeroen-: its very strange, can't think what would cause it16:07
jeroen-Riddell: my hostname was not in /etc/hosts16:08
\shjeroen-: what was inside?16:08
Riddelljeroen-: right but it must have been before so something in the upgrade broke it16:08
jeroen-the hosts file?16:08
jeroen-Riddell: maybe I've deleted it16:09
\shjeroen-: jepp16:09
jeroen-\sh: the usual stuff16:09
jeroen-with localhost, but not my hostname16:09
jeroen-Riddell: so maybe I removed it a long time ago, but sudo didn't check that16:09
\shjeroen-: you need 127.0.0.1 localhost , 127.0.1.1 <hostname from dhcp or from other source.fqdn> <short hostname> and some ipv6 stuff16:09
nixternaljeroen-: glad that worked :)16:10
nixternalScottK2: hahaha, I didn't even notice the first comment in there..that is a good one :)16:10
jeroen-\sh: I had 127.0.0.1 localhost ; some unneeded ipv6 stuff and some custom external hostnames16:10
jeroen-so I removed the ipv6 stuff and 127.0.0.1 k-uptown16:11
jeroen-added 127.0.0.1 k-uptown I mean16:11
\shjeroen-: why? 127.0.0.1 is localhost <whatever you name it additionally>16:11
\shjeroen-: and when sudo complains about k-uptown, it has something inside which checks against k-uptown..16:12
\shjeroen-: please check /etc/sudoers too16:12
jeroen-\sh: oh wait I sgould use 127.0.1.1 for k-uptown, according another machine I admin16:13
\shjeroen-: correct...but what's bugging me is sudo...when sudo asks about k-uptown, could it be you add a sudo rule which included a hostname?16:13
Riddell\sh: sudo always wants to know the hostname16:14
Riddellbreaks it in chroots16:14
jeroen-\sh: not that I am aware off, I just do sudo ; and the /etc/sudoers does not include my name, but the %admin group - if I'n right I am a member of that group16:15
jeroen-yes I am16:16
jeroen-off course16:16
jeroen-Riddell: so a solution should be to check if /etc/hostname is also in /ewtc/hosts and if not add it16:17
jeroen-I also have two firewall now :-)16:19
jeroen-ufw and firestarter16:19
jeroen-mmmh16:19
\shRiddell: yes...it wants A hostname, which needs to be the same in /etc/hosts for 127.0.1.1 and /etc/hostname (the short host without fqdn)16:19
\shfunpart is now to determine the bugger who is corrupting /etc/hosts ;)16:20
jeroen-\sh: that would be me :-)16:20
jeroen-another minor thing16:22
jeroen-gtkqt is not used when starting gtk-apps as root16:22
ScottK2\sh: Then there's Bug #8980 which may or may not relate.16:24
ubotuLaunchpad bug 8980 in netcfg "hostname -f does not return a proper FQDN" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/898016:24
\shScottK2: now it's getting interesting .)16:28
\shScottK2: I'm on wired ethernet, and get my hostname + ip from dhcp..16:28
\shScottK2: my /etc/hosts looks like: 127.0.0.1localhost16:28
\sh127.0.1.1wz-pc-006.intern.netviewer.dewz-pc-00616:28
\shmy /etc/hostname is the shorthostname (wz-pc-006) , hostname -f gives me the fqdn16:29
\shI don't have any reference of the official ip of my NIC in /etc/hosts16:29
ScottK2I just get the short hostname with hostname -f16:29
\shhardy?16:30
ScottK2Gutsy.16:30
\shaha16:30
comm_a_ndersame here16:30
ScottK2Let me check the Hardy one.16:30
ScottK2Hardy is the same.16:30
\shScottK2: what's written in /etc/hosts for you on gutsy (well, I can check it this evening)16:31
\shScottK2: hmmm...what could happen is, that the dhcp request didn't deliver the fqdn and something is adjusting /etc/hosts to the short name (happens with sloppy configured dhcpds)16:32
ScottK2\sh: 127.0.0.1       localhost and 127.0.1.1       KTS-D430, hostname -f returns  KTS-D43016:32
\shwhich is the correct behaviour16:32
* ScottK2 has also seen 8980 on boxen with static IP16:32
\shyou don't have a FQDN...just the short hostname16:32
ScottK2Right.16:33
jeroen-fyi: I have a static ip16:33
\shwhat happens if you set 127.0.1.1 KTS-D430.testdomain.tld KTS-D43016:33
* ScottK2 checks16:33
ScottK2That works - KTS-D430.testdomain.tld16:34
\shcorrect16:34
\shhostname works with the resolver lib :)16:34
ScottK2IIRC 8980 has to do with getting some odd /etc/hosts setups that aren't recognized.16:34
\shif you set /etc/host.conf to order hosts,bind it checks hosts first, then configured nameserver for your fqdn16:35
jeroen-so what's good about qtcurve16:35
jeroen-has it some extra new features?16:35
\shScottK2: btw...today /etc/host.conf isn't used anymore, now we are using nsswitch.conf, and hosts entry says: hosts:          files mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dns mdns416:36
\shwhich means: check /etc/hosts, check mdns, check dns, check mdns complete16:37
\shso I think it's more a problem of a system which is not setup correctly, or not getting correct infos from dhcp or dns or whatever...or manually tweaked files, as we did in the past when dns was cryptic and /etc/hosts was the only name -> ip resolver16:37
ScottK2You forgot the step in there where mdns pounds the root name servers for .local.16:37
ScottK2For the static IP boxes I've had trouble with that on, however it was configured was done by the installer.16:38
* ScottK2 is not a big mdns fan. Broken by design.16:38
jeroen-only bigger problem now, is that Hardy right now is just partly translated (Dutch). I also assume that will solve itself.16:40
\shScottK2: hmm..avahi us only for service browsing...reading the conf it doesn't do anything, then service mdns requests...16:41
\shs/us/uses/16:41
ScottK2\sh: How does mdns find stuff?16:42
ScottK2\sh: Makes dns query for .local which other mdns implementations respond to.  Also goes to the local DNS resolver, which knows nothing about a .local TLD (since it doesn't exist), and it gets passed (evntually) to a DNS root server.16:43
\shScottK2: that's what multicast dns is for...I wonder if they are using real mcast stuff ;)16:44
ScottK2If they'd just put mdns on a different port, all would be well.  It's overload the DNS port that's the fundamental problem.16:45
ScottK2mdns is not really DNS.16:45
\shwell, you can use DNS nowadays as a service browser too ;)16:45
\shat least, this is how jabber works nowadays to determine some ports for xmpp services16:46
ScottK2IIRC that's done with proper srv records and so doesn't have the same architectural problems that mdns has.16:46
\shScottK2: correct :)16:47
\shScottK2: and reading now http://avahi.org/wiki/AvahiAndUnicastDotLocal it's quite interessting ;)16:47

kristjan_Riddell: too bad, can I leave a message him?19:01
Riddellkristjan_: e-mail tonio@toniox.org19:01
kristjan_ok thanks19:02
afiestasRiddell what version I need use to test the bugs in the "hug day" ? I have an updated alpha6 because I don't found the beta images :/19:10
Riddellyuriy: ^^19:11
Riddellafiestas: updated alpha 6 should be fine19:11
afiestasok :p19:12
Riddellryanakca: so, website, what's the status?19:26
_StefanS_evening19:27
_StefanS_Riddell: hey, what about that mail from Craig d. regarding qtcurve-gtk2? is it too late?19:28
Riddell_StefanS_: is he the qtcurve developer?19:29
_StefanS_Riddell: yup19:30
RiddellI think its too late for the gtk theme to be added19:33
yuriyafiestas: welcome :) feel free to ask me or others in #ubuntu-bugs if you have questions about triaging19:33
_StefanS_Riddell: ok then19:34
_StefanS_Riddell: too bad.19:34
afiestasyuriy ok, thanks, I'm just reinstalling the kubuntu alpha 6 in my other laptop  :)19:34
jjesseyay finally have vmware up and running in hardy now my machine is ready :)19:57
dasKreech:-)20:04
jjessegrumble why do i never remember what i need to set my ssh key for launchpad to?20:16
nosrednaekimRiddell: I added IPP printer support to system-config-printer-kde.... is it too late to get it into hardy?20:16
seelehuh.. that's interesting20:17
seeleapparently there was a grad student who did a usability study on ubiquity last spring around the same time i did20:17
seeleunfortunately he didnt put his results anywhere we would find them, but he did just send me his thesis20:18
dasKreechThat's kinda random20:19
dasKreechThough I guess starting season if usability now would prompt that20:20
seeleno.. he found my article in the UPA Voice and followed it to my open source work20:20
dasKreechok20:21
seeleit20:22
Riddellnosrednaekim: ooh, rocking20:22
seeleit's people like that we want to catch with the SoU tho20:22
seelethey are interested in usability and open source but havent put it together yet, usually because they dont know how or its really hard to get involved20:22
seeleso the SoU introduces them to a project, they work with a developer and usability engineer and have something to show for it at the end20:22
seeleand many times they create a relationship with the project and continue to contribute20:23
Riddellseele: curious20:23
seeleRiddell: at least in theory.  we haven't *really* had too many stick around afterwards :-/20:24
seelewho wouldn't want to work with all you lovely people?!20:24
* Riddell looks coy20:25
seelelol20:25
Tm_TRiddell: do you have short moment? I'm building my final application20:27
RiddellTm_T: ok20:28
Tm_Thttp://www.tm-travolta.net/tekstit/coss-app-en.txt20:29
dasKreechseele: Hooray. Kmymoney is using your template :)20:31
Tm_TRiddell: it's work in progress so good time for you to throw ideas and what you would love to see there20:31
blueyed"Charset" in kubuntu-konqueror-shortcuts/searchproviders desktop files is also deprecated, isn't it? (it's set to empty for all)20:32
nosrednaekimTm_T: what org are you applying to?20:33
dasKreechnow if we can convince the buggers to move to KDE4...20:33
Tm_Tnosrednaekim: finnish org named COSS20:33
seeledasKreech: do you use KMyMoney?20:34
dasKreechUsed20:34
dasKreechI'm running KDE4 Pure now20:34
dasKreechso not for a while20:34
Tm_Tnosrednaekim: see www.coss.fi20:34
dasKreechI would like to use it again :)20:34
* seele grumbles20:35
seelewhy does everyone think the iPhone has some great level of usability?20:35
dasKreechIf it supported Flake stuff from koffice it could build charts from usage history which would be killer20:35
dasKreechseele: I'm sorry should I use it?20:35
RiddellTm_T: "Ubuntu (GNOME) has migration tool, which will be a base for this project." that should be a bit stronger, its an extention to the same project to add KDE support, not a new project based on an old one20:35
seeledasKreech: i dunno.. i've never used it myself20:35
Tm_TRiddell: yes, true, should put weight on it20:35
dasKreechseele: They do? I thought it had novel usability which is quite different20:35
dasKreechseele: you'd scream20:35
dasKreechit's quite nice once you get used to it but it's a conundrum at the start20:36
seeledasKreech: it's the latest fad to cite the iPhone when talking about mobile technology usability20:36
seeleprobably makes nokia and nextel scream20:36
RiddellTm_T: "backend and MS Windows side is mostly done" the KDE part of the backend isn't mostly done20:37
Tm_TRiddell: yup, true there, misworded once again :)20:37
Tm_Tme brainfarting20:37
RiddellTm_T: "Frontend will be based.." that paragraph should note that the frontend is part of ubiquity20:38
Tm_Theh :)20:39
Tm_Tthat's why I asked you to look it20:39
Tm_Talways something I don't understand to say out clear20:39
RiddellTm_T: "Information from Applicant" doesn't mention if you have any experience with pyqt or C20:40
RiddellTm_T: pyKDE -> pyQt20:40
Tm_Ttrue true20:40
Tm_T"Frontend will be done for Ubiquity Kubuntu installer, based to pyQt ..."20:41
Tm_TRiddell: F5 is your friend btw (I love kio)20:42
Tm_T...though someone accidentally edited wrong file :--P20:43
blueyedDoesn't plasma use kubuntu-konqueror-shortcuts? (web shortcuts). I've killed and restarted it even.20:43
Riddellblueyed: alt-f2 probably should20:45
blueyedRiddell: no, that's what I've meant. Konqueror does..20:45
Riddellblueyed: maybe it doesn't then20:46
afiestas<afiestas> A fresh installation of kubuntu alpha6: knetworkmanager can't connect to my hidden wpa2 essid (with dhcp) (paste from #ubuntu-bugs)20:46
blueyedRiddell: yes, it doesn't use the others, too. What a pity.20:48
* seele wonders if she scared Riddell away from the printing discussion21:01
blueyedRiddell: you have to restart krunner, then it works.21:04
Riddellseele: no, just had a shower.  but I am pretty confused by the whole thing21:09
seelethat's ok.  youre clean now, i'm sure it will make sense soon :P21:10
seeleTZ doesn't help by interjecting his opinion on something unrelated either21:10
Riddellseele: who is actually involved with this?21:12
seeleRiddell: design-wise it is Peter Sikking, whatever apprentice he's suckered in, me, and Jan Muehlig21:12
seeleRiddell: Josef is involved in the coding end of it, Christian Tiberna used to be, but I think he handed it off to Josef21:13
seeleRiddell: no one is involved on the gnome side, even after poking them a few times21:13
ryanakcaRiddell: sorry, haven't worked on it in the past week or so, but I'll try to get it done tonight and mail it off to you to review21:13
seeleand a whole slew of other people involved in technical stuff i dont understand21:14
Riddellryanakca: done as in done?21:14
ryanakcaRiddell: Other than the download page, yes21:14
ryanakcaRiddell: did you want one like ubuntu.com, or like we currently have?21:14
jeroen-mysql will not start anymore after upgrade21:20
jeroen-does anyone know how to get a verbose output somewhere?21:21
ryanakcajeroen-: #ubuntu+1 please21:21
Riddellryanakca: the download page should be like ubuntu has21:27
Riddellseele: possibly impolite questions. this printer stuff has been going on for two years and the design isn't done, what's taken so long?21:27
