| txwikinger | Does KDE4 have already language support? | 12:57 |
| smarter | txwikinger: yes | 12:57 |
| smarter | txwikinger: kde-l10n-* packages in kubuntu | 12:58 |
| txwikinger | can I somehow start an app from commandline with a different language? | 12:58 |
| smarter | txwikinger: KDE_LANG=fr_FR app | 12:59 |
| smarter | at least in kde3 | 12:59 |
| txwikinger | ah KDE_LANG :) | 12:59 |
| txwikinger | I will try that | 12:59 |
| txwikinger | thanks smarter | 12:59 |
| smarter | you also have an entry "switch application language"(or something like that) in the help menu | 12:59 |
| txwikinger | well.. I just want to test a certain app | 12:59 |
| txwikinger | I should not need to change the whole desktop for that | 13:00 |

| ryanakca | Anybody know of a page the website can link to with a bunch of user reviews on Kubuntu? | 13:33 |
| nosrednaekim | ryanakca: a google search for "user reviews of kubuntu" :P | 13:34 |
| ryanakca | nosrednaekim: than in that case we need to get some more or a place to unify them, because from what I see: a) they're all blog entries reviewing us, b) they're far and few in between (a couple for 6.06, 6.10 and 7.04 and three for 7.10. licencing, etc? Do I link to a list of individual blogs, file sharing sites, etc?)... | 13:40 |
| ryanakca | s/etc\?/etc/g | 13:40 |
| nosrednaekim | ryanakca: I don't see why you couldn't link to blogs... and I can search a lot down for you if you would like | 13:40 |
| ryanakca | Hmm... imho, it just doesn't look as professional, not having it all under one site... but, it's that or take off the link to reviews... Go for it if you want :) | 13:42 |
| ryanakca | methinks we'll have to make a thread on kubuntuforums.org when the release comes around, to get people's opinions and reviews all in one page. | 13:43 |
| nosrednaekim | alright | 13:45 |
| nosrednaekim | ryanakca: here is a pretty decent list! http://www.google.com/custom?domains=www.tuxmachines.org&q=kubuntu&sitesearch=www.tuxmachines.org&sa=Google+Search&client=pub-6816844301275330&forid=1&ie=ISO-8859-1&oe=ISO-8859-1&safe=active&cof=GALT%3A%23008000%3BGL%3A1%3BDIV%3A%23336699%3BVLC%3A663399%3BAH%3Acenter%3BBGC%3AFFFFFF%3BLBGC%3A336699%3BALC%3A0000FF%3BLC%3A0000FF%3BT%3A000000%3BGFNT%3A0000FF%3BGIMP%3A0000FF%3BFORID%3A1&hl=en | 13:48 |
| ryanakca | nosrednaekim: ah, tuxmachines.org , they have more than one review, thanks ;D | 13:50 |
| * ryanakca hates how when you search for "kubuntu" in google, they ask "did you mean /ubuntu/?" | 13:51 | |
| nosrednaekim | mostly links to other reviews though,so you might not want to link JUST to the google redirect | 13:51 |
| nosrednaekim | heh.,.. yes, very annoying | 13:51 |

| smarter | hey Riddell | 16:52 |
| smarter | I've made a new patch to prevent the medianotifier popup in kde4 | 16:52 |
| smarter | it's more clean | 16:53 |
| smarter | and you can easily add other modules to blacklist | 16:53 |
| smarter | http://smarter.free.fr/pkg/kdelibs.debdiff | 16:53 |
| smarter | by default, it prevent loading of medianotifier, mediamanager, kmilod and kwrited | 16:54 |
| Riddell | groovy | 16:54 |
| smarter | with this patch enabled, we can drop kubuntu_9924_kde4_no_medianotifier.diff from kdebase | 16:57 |
| Riddell | yep | 16:57 |
| Riddell | looks good | 16:57 |
| smarter | I was wondering, does the medianotifier daemon popup too if you use a kde app on Gnome/XFCE/whatever? | 17:03 |
| Riddell | smarter: that I'm not sure | 17:26 |

| jjesse | afternoon everyone:) | 19:48 |
| jjesse | ok need a question answered: is upgrading from 7.10 KDE3 to KDE 4 supported? if not how do i upgrade my kde 3 7.10 box -> kde4 8.04? | 19:55 |
| jjesse | would i first have to upgrade from 7.10 to 8.04 via the upgrade manager and then install kubuntu-kde4-desktop? | 19:56 |
| jjesse | Riddell: can you help with above? upgrade form 7.10 to 8.04 kde3 only supported? | 19:57 |
| smarter | weird | 20:00 |
| smarter | by default, qtconfig-qt4 use the "Sans Serif" fonts, and looks ugly, if I change it to "DejaVu Sans" it is as good as Qt3, but Qt3 use "Sans Serif", so I assume it's DejaVu Sans | 20:01 |
| Riddell | jjesse: upgade from 7.10 is for kde 3 only | 20:01 |
| Riddell | jjesse: then you can install kubuntu-kde4-desktop (which should appear in Add/Remove Programmes soon) | 20:02 |
| jjesse | Riddell: ok so in the section "upgrading Kubuntu" i need to phrase it so people understand | 20:03 |
| _StefanS_ | evening | 20:03 |
| Riddell | jjesse: an upgrade will get you the newest kde 3. if you want kde 4 that's a separate matter | 20:03 |
| jjesse | evening _StefanS_ | 20:04 |
| _StefanS_ | Tonio_: I've got the ui done, and need to attach functions to save, and load in it | 20:04 |
| _StefanS_ | Tonio_: working on that now | 20:04 |
| jjesse | Riddell: i understand.... so should i remove the whole section "upgrading" from the book that talks about upgrading from previous version to new version | 20:04 |
| jjesse | Riddell: and if i have 7.10 w/ kde4 packages installed will it upgrade correctlY? | 20:05 |
| smarter | Does someone know why Qt4 use some ugly font for Sans Serif instead of DejaVu Sans? | 20:05 |
| Riddell | jjesse: well you should say it'll upgrade kde 3. if you have kde 4 packages installed it'll upgrade those too | 20:05 |
| jjesse | Riddell: thanks | 20:05 |
| smarter | apparently Qt4 use Nimbus Sans L instead of DejaVu Sans for Sans Serif | 20:12 |
| smarter | can anyone confirm? | 20:12 |
| jjesse | intersting in 8.04 (with Samba installed) i click on it under System settings and System Settings crashes... anyone else have this problem? | 20:25 |
| smarter | does anyone know what is the system-wide configuration file for Qt4? | 20:37 |

| Riddell | smarter: see if there's any recent changes to fontconfig? | 20:38 |
| _StefanS_ | Riddell: do you know how to get an extra .ui file included in an existing src package? I'm having trouble getting the .h file generated using uic | 20:40 |
| Riddell | _StefanS_: KDE 3? | 20:41 |
| smarter | Riddell: I've always had this problem with Qt4 apps | 20:41 |
| Riddell | smarter: it's not something I've seen | 20:41 |
| Riddell | smarter: ArneGoetje is the dude who knows about fonts | 20:41 |
| smarter | does he usually idles in this channel? | 20:42 |
| Riddell | #u-d | 20:42 |
| _StefanS_ | Riddell: kde3 yep | 20:42 |
| Riddell | _StefanS_: add it to Makefile.am and run make -f admin/Makefile.cvs | 20:42 |
| _StefanS_ | Riddell: I'll try that | 20:43 |
| _StefanS_ | Riddell: hmm only got a nearly empty Makefile.common | 20:44 |
| Riddell | _StefanS_: well does it compile the .ui file? | 20:49 |
| _StefanS_ | Riddell: nope.. it complains during the end where it needs to do a .moc file from the .h (which is done from the .ui) | 20:49 |
| _StefanS_ | odd | 20:50 |
| _StefanS_ | ah maybe I found something.. | 20:50 |
| jjesse | in kde4 8.04 why doesn't system settings show up in the search bar of the application launcher when i search for system, system settings or settings? | 20:55 |
| jjesse | ? | 20:56 |
| Riddell | jjesse: bug? | 20:56 |
| Riddell | it's in computer | 20:56 |
| jjesse | Riddell: i know it is in computer and also in favorites | 20:57 |

| Riddell | 876u | 20:59 |
| jjesse | sorry don't understand what you are typing | 20:59 |
| smarter | Riddell: you have exactly the same font in qtconfig-qt3 and qtconfig-qt4 ? | 21:02 |
| _StefanS_ | Riddell: is there a way to ignore the reverse-patches section when doing debuild ? (I'm changing the source, so thats why it cant reverse them) | 21:03 |
| smarter | _StefanS_: -nc ? | 21:04 |
| Riddell | debuild -nc | 21:04 |
| _StefanS_ | Riddell: well I need to clean the project since i want some of the files regenerated | 21:04 |
| Riddell | make clean | 21:05 |
| smarter | _StefanS_: do "debian/rules clean" first | 21:05 |
| === hunger_t is now known as hunger | ||
| _StefanS_ | smarter: it makes the same reverse-patches error.. but i guess issuing a debuild -nc after it, will be just as good | 21:06 |
| Riddell | cats >:( | 21:06 |
| jjesse | oh wow... my dog just farted something nasty | 21:07 |
| jjesse | gagh | 21:07 |
| _StefanS_ | Riddell: actually it seems like the errors appears when it copies the stuff into obj-486, do you know where this happens? | 21:08 |
| awen_ | ScottK: around? | 21:15 |
| awen_ | ScottK: have been trying to reinstall knetworkmanager / network-manager while connected to a WPA network... it disconnected, but choosing the network again, and it connects as it should; and no errors is thrown to the syslog | 21:16 |
| smarter | What is the system-wide configuration file for Qt4? | 21:19 |
| fdoving | smarter: like /etc/qt3/qtrc or similar? | 21:21 |
| smarter | yes, but for qt4 | 21:21 |
| awen_ | ScottK: and you made an error on the last upload of kde-guidance... you based it on the wrong *ubuntu8 diff.gz so you "destroyed" the changes regarding suspend+brightness buttons again | 21:21 |
| awen_ | ScottK: you should be able to reinsert it using this debdiff: http://awen.dk/packages/gpmhelper/kde-guidance_0.8.0svn20080103-0ubuntu8.debdiff (you probably wan't to change the version and mingle with the changelog, but it should apply)... or tell me if I should prepare a new debdiff where the patch/changes are reinserted? | 21:27 |
