Jucatonixternal: you're an e.T. too right?00:59
Nightrosehaha00:59
nixternalextra terrestrial, yes00:59
Jucatoer.. e.V... freudian slip...00:59

Jucatothanks :)01:00
Nightrosemade me laugh out loud01:00
Nightrose;-)01:00
nixternalnobody from the e.V. has recommended me yet01:00
Nightroseperfect01:00
nixternalhehe01:00
nixternalI did too01:00
Jucatonixternal: want me to pull some strings? :)01:00
nixternalI thought Jucato was serious though with the e.T. though01:00
nixternalJucato: nah, when the time comes..I am patient01:00
Jucatohahah no. that's already presumed as fact anyway01:00
nixternalI may not even be worthy enough yet...I really don't do much like the people in the e.V. do01:01
Nightrosenixternal: write your application and once I am really in I will give you my thumbs up after Riddell recommended you ;-)01:01
Jucatonixternal: I need you to be there so that you can recommend me when my time comes :P01:01
Nightrosejust wait until I am subscribed ;-)01:01
nixternalI think you need to do more than just love KDE :)01:01
Jucatodid you really think I was sincerely just going to pull strings for charity? :P01:01

nixternalwhoa, when people post pictures on twitter, bitlbee doesn't like it01:01
nixternalhahahaha01:01
Jucatonixternal: j/k of course :)01:02
nixternalNightrose: do you use kpresenter or ooimpress for your presentations?01:03
Jucatooooooo...impressed :)01:04
Nightrosebooth01:04
Nightroseit depends on the template I get ;-)01:04
Nightrosealso I am in love with okular for presentations since a few days01:04
nixternalfor some reason, the oxygen templates looked weird in my kpresenter and ooimpress01:04
Nightroseit is totally awesome01:04
Nightrosehmm strange01:05
nixternalI use the latex-beamer template...it seems much easer just to do it in latex for me01:05
Nightrosehehe yea I thought about that as well01:05
Nightrosebut it was too much of a hassle back then01:05
NightroseI like latex but sometimes it gives me a headache01:06
nixternalhehe, I have tweaked the theme to be a little nicer01:06
nixternalI wasn't a fan of the ToC pages01:06

nixternalok, need some word magic here01:25
nixternalI have subsections that are *ability...my first subsection I stole from some other KDE developer and called it Beauty01:25
nixternalbut I want to use *ability instead01:26
nixternalso, if I can't find something that ends in ability that refers to looks, I will throw in some comedy and pull a word from my George W. Bush dictionary01:26

Nightrosemarry me KDE 401:29
Nightrose!01:29
nixternalhahaha01:30
nixternalactually, it will be fine with just Beauty cuz I have another subsection that doesn't match the scheme..so I may come up with a new scheme then01:30
nixternalBeauty -> Usability -> Portability -> Functionality -> and end with Notability (ie. top apps)01:31
Nightrosesounds good01:31
nixternalBeauty covers Plasma and Oxygen, usability strengthens the points in Beauty but makes it even better01:32
nixternaljust goes to show we made it beautiful, yet usable for everyone01:32

yao_ziyuanif i freshly install kubuntu and choose Simplified Chinese at the very first page of the Installation Wizard,04:46
yao_ziyuanafter installation, the login screen has some chinese characters displayed as dots04:47

nixternalI still have to beautify it of course, just got most of the stuff layed out06:22
Jucatobeautify? or beautabilitate?06:25
nixternalboth :)06:25
Jucatoyou sure you want to put a big scary picture at the beginning? :P06:25
nixternalneed to shrink up some of the text06:25
nixternalI can put a bigger scarier one if needed :)06:25

nixternalKDE consumes it all baby!06:32
nixternalI stole that from kde.org somewhere06:33
Jucatoah06:33
* Jucato wonders about inserting something that mentions something like "rocking applications" to include amarok, k3b, etc (or does the first bullet cover that?)06:34
nixternalhttp://www.kde.org/whatiskde/06:34
nixternalI just added the FREE to hit the point on the newbs06:34
Jucatoeeh :)06:34
Jucatohehe06:34
nixternalman, I totally forgot about Amarok and K3b in the 'Notability' section at the end06:35
nixternalthat will all get covered06:35
Jucatoaah :)06:35
Jucatoyou forgot amarok and k3b?!?! how could you!! :P06:35

nixternalya, that is horrible06:40
stdinmaybe insert the word "tools" after "developers"06:40
Jucatonixternal: hm.. I thought quality.kde.org was supposed to be deprecated...06:42
nixternalAPI that provides developers tools to take advantage of multi-core CPUs06:42
nixternalhow is that?06:42
nixternalJucato: I have no clue06:42
Jucatothere was a discussion about that in the q.k.o ML06:42

nixternalJucato: OK, I will look into it06:44
nixternaldo they have a new page by chance?06:44
nixternalpreferably nothing with a huge techbase URL06:44
Jucatonixternal: not really. the q.k.o site hasn't been updated in a while.06:45
nixternalI found a ton of *.kde.org and kde.org/* pages that were way outdated06:45
nixternalyou know what I can't find, the email that announces that KDE 4 development is beginning06:45
nixternalI searched high and low for that one06:45
Jucatoade wanted to close this one though06:46
Jucatothe team, site, and list06:46
Jucatonixternal: possibly relevant discussion about q.k.o: http://mail.kde.org/pipermail/kde-quality/2007-June/thread.html06:47
nixternalthanks for that...holy smokes, almost a year ago06:48
Jucatonixternal: just another suggestion, or maybe you can do it in the talk without putting it on the slide. about KWin. sort of mention something like having the fancy effects while still maintaining stability and usability :)06:53
JucatoPlasma doesn't really replace SK, does it?06:54
Jucatooh nvm.. I'm still unfamiliar with the whole thingy :)06:54

nixternalumm, everyone of my video players show jsut a blue screen except for mplayer...what is the issue? any ideas?06:55

Jucatoomg!! so that's what Nepomuk means!!06:56
nixternalhehe06:56
* Jucato adds that to GNOME and kbuildsycoca weirdness06:57
Jucatonixternal: "Currently doesn't allow restricting what scripts can do" <--- what does that mean?06:59
nixternalgotta fix that, but it means you can run a rogue script and the system won't be able to detect it07:00
nixternalactually, I am going to remove that07:00
nixternalI think that was a copy/paste07:00

Riddellseele: UTC meeting time changed to keep local times the same incase you're wondering15:07
seeleRiddell: yeah, i noticed that15:07
Tonio_Riddell: I just fixed the samba breaking in knetworkconf, uploading15:08
RiddellTonio_: samba breaking in knetworkconf?15:08
Tonio_Riddell: yep, knetworkconf breaks samba config15:08
Tonio_Riddell: it reads smb.conf settings, but doesn't write them as an output15:08
RiddellTonio_: mmm, why does it read smb.conf?15:09
Tonio_Riddell: that was for future versions probably15:09
Tonio_Riddell: it doesn't do anything regarding to smb settings, but that was probably planned15:09
Tonio_for example, set the network domain etc....15:09
Tonio_wins server....15:10
Tonio_Riddell: I just told him not to consider smb.conf and that's way better15:10
Tonio_Riddell: that broke 100 computers configuration for one of our clients :)15:10
Riddellmerk15:11
Tonio_the stupid thing is that smb.conf settings are read but not written back to the config file, so everything breaks15:11
RiddellTonio_: don't suppose you fancy fixing how you can't delete an entry after adding it (so you can't revert back to network-manager if you use knetworkconf)15:12

CheGuevarathx15:22
Tonio_Riddell: I don't understand your last comment.... you mean ?15:24
RiddellTonio_: network-manager ignores your wifi if it is configured in /etc/networks/interfaces..15:25
Tonio_Riddell: yeah I know that15:25
RiddellTonio_: knetworkmanager will add an interface to /etc/networks/interfaces but can't remove it15:25
Tonio_Riddell: no way before network-manager 0.715:25
Riddellsorry15:25
RiddellTonio_: knetworkconf will add an interface to /etc/networks/interfaces but can't remove it15:25
Riddellso if you use knetworkconf you can't then go back to knetworkmanager15:26
Tonio_Riddell: what if you switch back to dhcp, it will ignore it ?15:26
Riddellwithout editing the /etc/networks/interfaces by hand15:26
RiddellTonio_: no, I don't think so15:26
Tonio_Riddell: I thought knetworkmanager was only ignoring cards with static ip.....15:26
RiddellTonio_: I believe not15:26
Tonio_Riddell: hum, I'll test this to confirm, give me a moment :)15:27
Tonio_Riddell: you're right.......15:28
Tonio_Riddell: that can hardly be fixed until network-manager supports ip settings I'm affraid15:29
RiddellTonio_: it can be fixed by making knetworkconf remove what it adds to /etc/network/interfaces (as happens in gnome)15:30
Tonio_Riddell: yep15:33
Tonio_Riddell: card with no options and dhcp should go back to network-manager, right15:33
Tonio_Riddell: I'll see what I can do on that point15:33
Tonio_Riddell: that one shouldn't be super hard to fix15:33

apacheloggerdavmor2: it's more than likely that we remove the plasma toolbox16:00
davmor2apachelogger: well I can knock it on the head if you do :)16:01
RiddellTonio_: yes, because ubiquity gets started with a command within a command16:01
Riddelland kdesudo splits it up wrongly16:01
Tonio_Riddell: what about kdesu ? does it do it better ?16:01
RiddellTonio_: kdesu does exactly the same16:01
Riddellwe made kdesudo work like this to match kdesu16:01
Tonio_Riddell: I try to be compatible with both kdesu and gksu but that's sometime hard :)16:01
Riddellgksu is different16:02
Tonio_Riddell: if I do the gksu way sometime that breaks kdesu compatibiliy etc....;16:02
Tonio_Riddell: I know16:02
RiddellTonio_: but /usr/bin/kdesudo could work differently from /usr/bin/kdesu16:02
Tonio_Riddell: cjwatson is right, kdesudo could be gksu compatible when starting as kdesudo16:03
Tonio_Riddell: yep16:03

nixternalahh, video works fine in KDE 3, but as soon as I go into KDE 4 with compositing enabled, video is nothing but a blue screen...seems to be the same issues that are in Compiz as well20:00
nixternalfix is supposedly to use Xshm, which is garbage, laggy, not sync'd, and then some20:01
_StefanS_Riddell: is it still valid for me to do that static network thingy ?20:01
_StefanS_Riddell: I just saw that knetworkconf was updated20:01
Riddell_StefanS_: mm, which one?20:30
_StefanS_Riddell: the one that is supposed to replace the (as I'm told) buggy kcm module (knetworkconf, guidance?). Its the one that Tonio was talking about20:35
_StefanS_Riddell: its the one you start from knetworkmanager; Manual Configuration20:37
_StefanS_Riddell: sorry for confusing you :D20:37

nixternalvorian: you use bitlbee?21:08
voriannixternal: nope21:09
voriannixternal: i might have to give it a try one of these days21:10
* Jucato wonders how bitlbee is related to bumblbee...21:11
nixternalhrmm, it seems that Yahoo upgraded their protocol and all of the Ubuntu bitlbees no longer work21:11
nixternal!info bitlbee hardy21:11
ubotuPackage bitlbee does not exist in hardy21:11
nixternalsure it does21:11

* nixternal is building it now21:33
nixternalI thought it was 16:30 here21:33
nixternalit is only 15:3021:33
jjesselol its 16:30 here :)21:33
ryanakcanixternal: you aren't getting all sorts of errors when trying to build kdesupport (which in turns mess up the rest of the build)?21:34
nixternalnope21:34
nixternalare you using qt-copy?21:34
ryanakcanixternal: yeah, kdesvn-build :)21:34
jjessenixternal: i'm finishing screenshots and then i'm done w/ book how bout u?21:34
ryanakcanixternal: hmm... according to the people in #strigi, its because there's something very wrong with my linker... "no 'delete', no 'new' etc, it is not linking the c++ libs" :S21:35
ryanakcaAlways nice to hear :)21:36
nixternaljjesse: been done with the book for a week now...I am waiting for Deb to send me a contract21:36
jjessedang beet me done21:36
nixternalthat sounds like fun ryanakca21:36
nixternaljjesse: next issue, I have 2 chapters :)21:36

Jucatomhb!!!!!!!!!!!!!21:37
mhbyes?21:38
Jucatolong time no see :)21:38
mhbhave I forgotten anything?21:38
jjesseme?21:38
mhbJucato: heh :o)21:38
mhbJucato: that's because I am currently being in love with computer science and I am liking all those half-baked BreakingKits less and less21:39
JucatoI think I'll be in love with CS soon as well :)21:40
mhbJucato: good to hear21:40
* Jucato will be going to school (at home) in June :D21:40
mhbJucato: more education is what makes open source better21:41
Jucato:D21:42
mhbJucato: or perhaps it just makes our egos bigger21:42
Jucatoor both :)21:42
mhbperhaps, yes.21:43
mhbunfortunately, my growing ego is blocking me from helping out with anything KDE, because I feel KDE is so taking all the wrong decisions nowadays21:43
jjessemhb: really?21:44
Jucatothere's always <some other FOSS project> out there :)21:44
voriando we need a FFe for ktorrent-kde4 (update)?21:44
ryanakcalol :)21:44
nixternalwe have a blanket FFe for *-kde421:44
nixternal15:40:02 [  UncleDub] 0% [6 gnome-desktop-data 363363/769kB 47%] [5 xserver-xorg-core 3460790/3600kB 96%] 961B/s 12d 13h50m47s21:45
nixternal15:40:25 [  UncleDub] so in 12 days I'll have a testing system21:45
ryanakcalol21:46
mhbjjesse: also I have stopped using KDE when it took so much memory that I couldnt launch VirtualBox :o)21:47
Jucatohah! :P21:48
Jucatoflux would probably the best for your :)21:48
Jucato(or twm?)21:48
mhbjjesse: yeah, well... I disagree with a whole lot of decisions lately, especially with the notion of adding features til you drop21:48
jjesseinterseting, i like the fact we can disagree21:49
mhbJucato: well, I am using one of those...21:49
* Jucato hands both some calming <insert preferred caffeinated drink here>21:49
ryanakcamhb: ratpoison :P hmm... <reply> Isn't the UNIX philosophy doing one thing and doing it well? Features are always nice, but when you get to the point of useless features, imho, you've gone to far. However (once again imho), KDE hasn't reached that point... </reply>21:52
fdovingmhb: you must have enabled strigi for it to do that. i have been trying to use strigi for a short week, but it's so uslessly resource-intensive i can't get anything else done, today i disabled it.21:53
ryanakca(btw, where's the announcement of adding features 'till you drop? Or is it just a general concencus/feeling in the community?)21:53
mhbfdoving: unless it enabled itself... hmm, I will update and check21:53
mhbryanakca: not sure, but I see that is what everyone is going for21:54
fdovingstrigi is the only app i've seen using 1.8G of my 2G RAM.21:54
mhbryanakca: including Ubuntu/GNOME21:55
ryanakcafdoving: ouch...21:55
mhbryanakca: that about UNIX philosophy...is that what I said, or do we agree so much? :o)21:56
ryanakcamhb: I thought the point of GNOME was to KISS?21:56
mhbryanakca: just the UI, the backend stuff is still slow and complex21:56
ryanakcaah21:56
mhbryanakca: you are right with the UNIX philosophy... but then I really disagree with the notion that distributions should not select apps based on how good they are, but which toolkit do they use21:57
mhbwhich is kind of the whole point of Kubuntu, so I guess I should shut up and not spread my poisonous idea(l)s21:58
ryanakcamhb: the UNIX philosophy thing? Well, I just read the GNU manifesto. Everybody was supposed/did write a program that did one task, and then they all stuck them together and sold them, instead of one mega program that did all 5000 tasks21:58
nixternalnow I can get ready for skewl21:58
ryanakcanixternal: have fun :)21:59
nixternalno way man21:59
nixternalI hate the class I have tonight21:59
fdovingryanakca: and that manifesto comes from the same people that did emacs.21:59
ryanakcaoh, what class?21:59
jjessevista21:59
nixternalit takes all of the programming stuff you learned, and brings it all together teaching you how to create and manage a project21:59
nixternaljjesse: hardy har har21:59
nixternalFLOURISH TOMORROW!21:59
ryanakcafdoving: heh, now that I think about it, its kinda hypocritical :)21:59
nixternalmhb: hurry up and travel to chicago and you shall go to flourish with me :)21:59
* nixternal goes now22:00
nixternalttyl22:00
* ryanakca waves22:00
mhbnixternal: hehe, I can't really, they won't let me in22:00
* ryanakca thinks the next UDS should be in Toronto... or host it in Montreal again...22:01
mhbryanakca: those were the days :o) I wish distros would learn from that...and app makers too, not just integrate it with KConfiguration or G registry, but with a text file ...22:02
mhbbut text files are history now, today D-Bus is the new text file22:02
fdovingmhb: you will just love akonadi. everything is a mysql db now :)22:04
mhbah good I never knew that22:04
mhbsorry people for bashing KDE so hard22:06
jjessethat's ok i still like you22:06
Jucatofdoving: would you have some choice as to which SQL to use?22:06
jjesseand we can still be friends :)22:06
Jucato:D22:06
fdovingJucato: mysql is fine with me as sqlite doesn't work for this task.22:06
Jucatoah22:06
fdovingmysql or similar is the way to store huge amounts of text like pim-data, anyway.22:07
mhbjjesse: haha :o)22:08
mhbjjesse: that's good to hear22:08
jjessealrighty heading out to dinner22:09
jjessewhile my copy still runs22:09
Riddell_StefanS_: right but which static network thingy?22:22
Riddell_StefanS_: the change tonio did was to make it delete entries when they are no longer used22:22
_StefanS_Riddell: err.. I was asked to make a dialog to configure static networking, with restart of network, and read/write to /etc/network/interfaces22:26
_StefanS_Riddell: ofcourse I might completely wrong :D22:26
Riddell_StefanS_: to replace knetworkconf?22:27
Riddellprobably a good idea, but I suspect no longer useful since it's too late for hardy and we'll probably have network manager .7 in the future22:28
_StefanS_I might actually be better of contributing directly to knm 0.7 then (if they need such a feature that is)22:28
Riddell_StefanS_: wstephenson was asking for helpers, it's a complex little applet though22:29
Riddelland I think he's just gone to bed22:30
_StefanS_Riddell: oh you mean he was asking for help on implementing it in 0.7 ?22:30
Riddell_StefanS_: well with knetworkmanager 0.7 in general22:31
_StefanS_Riddell: hmm I would like to fix some LEAP issues with knm anyway, so I'll just ask him what he needs help with22:32
Riddell_StefanS_: LEAP?22:32
_StefanS_Riddell: just a variant of PEAP22:33
_StefanS_Riddell: tunneling over wireless22:33
_StefanS_not many use it ;)22:34
mhbRiddell: should I even come to UDS now that I'm not helping Kubuntu in any way?22:35
mhbI am not sure if I'll be of any use, with my "controversial" opinions and all22:35
Riddellmhb: please do22:36
mhbokay22:36
Nightrosehow can I find out if plasma crashes on logout? (need it for a bugreport)22:41
mhbgoodnight folks22:46
mhbplease keep Kubuntu healthy, and don't be afraid to voice your opinion like me :o)22:46
