jjessei wasn't prompted02:49
nixternalok, so you were already using kdm-kde4 then02:50
jjessei just have kubuntu remix installed02:50
vorianok, one down.  turned out to be a sync02:50
voriannixternal: what's weird about starting out with watch files?  :P02:51
jjessestupid question how do i reconfigure it to make sure i'm using kdm-kde402:52
voriannixternal: can you also take a peek at bug #179828 and get the mother off my back! :)02:54
nixternaljjesse: I think 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure x-display-manager02:55
harolddongso when I install kubuntu-kde4-desktop I'm supposed to choose kdm-kde4 and the default manager?02:55
nixternalup to you02:56
nixternalI don't, cuz I had issues with kdm-kde4 way back02:56
jjessehrmm02:56
nixternaljjesse: that didn't do it?02:56
nixternalif not, try 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm-kde4' and see what you get02:57
jjessesudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm-kde4 returns nothing02:57
jjessejust kicks me back to the prompt02:57
Jucatosudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm?02:58
jjessekdm is not installed02:58
vorianyeah, it wouldn't be in remix02:58
jjesseis kwin the window manager?  should i have kwin-kde4 installed?02:59
Jucatoohh right..02:59
nixternaljjesse: kde-window-manager02:59
nixternalthat should remove kwin-kde402:59
jjesseah ok i don't have kwin-kde4 installed02:59
Jucato-_-03:00
nixternaljjesse: dpkg -l kde-window-manager03:02
nixternalsee if that is installed...it should be if kwin-kde4 is gone03:02
jjessefailed to read archive kde-window-manager: no such file or directory03:02
jjesseok be back in 20 mins wife is calling03:03
nixternaleveryone has a different problem...this is starting to become a real pita03:03
nixternalhrmm03:17
nixternal>.< this close to not being nice03:17
Jucatokdegames co is taking waaay too long :(03:18
harolddonghow many packages is the beta supposed to be all together?03:19
nixternalharolddong: when it is all done it will be all of them03:20
nixternaluntil then, it is only about 5 of them03:20
harolddongI'm still getting the man overwrite error?03:20
nixternalright now the plan is to get the base packages fixed so they aren't borking stuff03:20
harolddongis ther a way around that?03:20
nixternalharolddong: wait until the new kdebase-workspace finishes and re-update and upgrade03:21
nixternalalso, for tech support q's, head over to #kubuntu-kde403:21
vorianhell yes! Tracy Morgan is going to be hosting Scare Tatics03:21
nixternaleveryone is in there that is testing and bringing the problems up so I can look at fixing them03:21
nixternalthey are bringing back scare tactics?03:21
vorianyes!03:22

voriani love that show03:22
Jucatowhen is openSUSE 11's release?03:22
nixternalhehe, that show rocked03:22
nixternalJucato: I am about to go kung-fu on you!03:22
nixternalmuhahaha03:23
Jucatoas long as it isn't gung-fu :)03:23
nixternalhaha03:23
nixternalgood catch :p03:23
Jucato:D03:23
nixternalI am getting to the point to where I don't even want to continue these beta packages03:23
Jucatowin-fu would be worse03:23
nixternalpeople keep whining, and all it is doing is really pissing me off03:23
Jucatoyou're not used to it yet? :)03:24
Jucatothe whining I mean03:24
nixternalthese weren't even going to get done, but I decided to do it for everyone03:24
Jucatopeople love to wine03:24
Jucatoer.. whine03:24
nixternalJucato: right now, I am getting so many PMs about it03:24
nixternalI don't mind "hey, I am testing what you have in PPA, and this is the error I am getting"03:24
nixternalnot "when are the beta packages going to get done???"03:25
Jucatoor "the kde4 beta packages are broken"03:25
nixternalI feel like putting a rootkit in the packages and pwning the world :P03:25
nixternalthen again, rootkits don't get ya far in *buntu anyways03:28
Jucatowell can't you just make a package that will run rm -rf / there?03:29
JucatoI mean, it's running in sudo anyway...03:29
vorianhmm, that would be a treat03:29
nixternalthat it would03:29
nixternalI would pay to see that one, even if I am broke :)03:29
nixternalthe next time I do something like this, I will disconnect from IRC and email the entire time03:30
nixternaland....I will not upload the packages anywhere people can find them03:30
Jucatoyou? broke?03:30
nixternalyes, me, broke03:30
Jucato!nixternal03:30
Jucatooh you're lucky, no bot03:30

Jucatowb jjesse_ with a tail03:30
nixternaljjesse: is it still broke?03:30
Jucatodid nixternal break you too?03:31
jjesse_nixternal: i love your posts on kubuntu-users03:31
jjesse_thanks :)03:31
jjesse_yes he did03:31
* Jucato unsubscribed from k-users ml a long time ago03:31
nixternaljjesse_: I am filing a wishlist for kdepim/kmail:: [Wishlist] Allow me to send a punch through email03:31
jjesse_i ttoally agree03:31
jjesse_+1 to that idea03:31
nixternalthe reason I haven't is because sometimes there are decent ideas on there, or valid issues that need fixing03:32
jjesse_i'm sick of the kde4 sucks this shouldn't be a major release03:32
Jucatonixternal: I think "sometimes" is a bit of an overstatement03:32
jjesse_if you have problems go talk to #kde-devel03:32
nixternaljjesse_: you can't have it...you would pull a holyfield on me03:32
nixternalthen I would have to file a wishlist report that would allow me to bite your ear off03:32
jjesse_lol03:32
nixternaljjesse_: damn, I forgot to add that to my last email03:33
* Jucato thinks there is more noise in the ML than in kubuntuforums actually... but I'm no longer monitoring both...03:33
nixternalwhining to us isn't going to get KDE 4 fixed up to act like windows vista for you03:33
Jucatoguys, can't you just make a wishlist for sending (physical) violence through e-mail? then you'd get to choose which kind you wish to inflict03:33
Jucatoer.. implement03:33
jjesse_lol that's even better03:34
* jjesse_ heads to bugs.kde.org03:34
jjesse_i wonder if the problem i'm having is with vmware-tools and the x config and not the upgrade/update03:34

Nightroseif 4.0.80 is ready soonish I'd say no14:21
JontheEchidnaIf not, the fixes for the Qt 4.4-introduced bugs that made it into 4.0.5 should at least be cherrypicked/applied to our 4.0.414:21

sebasDepends on what changed, I'd say.14:35
apacheloggerO14:35
apacheloggero14:35
apacheloggerI am using 4.0.414:35
sebasAnd of course people want the latest+greated, even if the version number is the only thing that changed14:36
apacheloggerand I see no, but really no reason why I should switch my desktop to .8014:36
sebas4.0.80 is not good for general consumption14:36
sebasIt has lots of severe bugs.14:36
Nightrosehmmmm14:36
Nightroseok14:36
sebasLike, my session wouldn't survive more than 30 minutes usage14:36
Riddellooh, sebas is alive14:36
sebasKind of, after LinuxTag :)14:37
sebasTrying to recover14:37
apacheloggerhehe14:37
apacheloggersebas: everyone does ;-)14:37
Riddellsebas: I put my guidance-power-manager KDE 4 port into extragear, ok if I remove the old one that's there?14:37
Nightroseright ;-)14:37
sebasRiddell: Yes, please.14:37
sebasThe old one is kde314:37
sebasOw, wait ... the old one is a crude port that doesn't work14:37
sebasI meant to review it, but didn't get around to it14:37
Riddellit's kde 414:38
Riddellextragear/utils/guidance/powermanager14:38
sebasYeah, I read the related emails, just not the code itself14:38
sebasIs it using solid?14:38
Riddellno14:38
sebasPorted to signals instead of polling?14:38
Riddellnot yet14:38
sebasOk, maybe I can help a bit with those things14:39
Riddellplayground/utils/kde4powersave/ is looking promising in that respect14:39
sebasAh, didn't see it popping up14:39
* sebas is relieved that there's finally code14:39
Riddellsebas: so I can remove extragear/utils/guidance/powermanager ?14:40
sebasYes, assuming that's not your version :)14:43

JontheEchidnaSo how to I "apt-get source" from backports?14:45
anirudh0hi..i've just finished compiling kde4 svn, and i;d like to help with packages..my arch is x86..how can i do that14:45
Riddellsebas: done14:46
sebasRiddell: thanks14:46
RiddellJontheEchidna: same as anything else, make sure there's a deb-src line in sources.list14:46
Riddellanirudh0: great!14:46
Riddellanirudh0: have you made packages before?14:47
JontheEchidnaI mean, how do I specify which server I get it from? a regular "apt-get source kdm-kde4" got me the 4.0.3 version of the source14:47
anirudh0Riddell, nope..but would like to :)..running ubuntu 8.04..all packages were compiled against qt-copy, following the method on techbase.kde.org14:48
anirudh0up to date as of yesterday..except kaudiocreator..which could'nt compile14:48
anirudh0ok..just saw the packaging section on the kubuntu site...will go through all the stuff on creating debs..and be back in a day or two..thanks14:54

apachelogger-.-15:26

apacheloggeryeah, I should have used opensuse build service :S15:27

Jucatojjeesh?15:33
jjesse_:)15:38
jjesse_nixternal: you fix my kubuntu vm yet?15:38
DreadKnighthow can i built-dep for a package using aptitude?15:40
* Jucato thinks aptitude doesn't have that feature15:40
DreadKnightaham15:41
DreadKnightany way i could remove the build-dep for a specific package then?15:41
jjesse_hrmm noticed there are more updates for 4.115:51
jjesse_wonder if that will fix things?15:51
DreadKnightjjesse_: go ahead xD15:52
DreadKnightdo the package for 4.1b install without problems now?15:54
DreadKnighti messed up my distro last night and had to reinstall... im on kde3 atm15:54
DreadKnighttoo bad the 4.1b don't include the new theme xD15:55
DreadKnightguess is not hard to find it with ghns anyway15:55
=== jjesse_ is now known as jjesse
nixternaljjesse: any luck yet? what was the issue again? did you mv or rm ~/.kde416:04
jjesse_nixternal: i wasn't getting kdm to start16:04
jjesse_however i just did a dist-upgrade annd now it works16:04
jjesse_wlecome to debian at HOSTNAME16:05
Artemis_Fowlnixternal: heya. how are the KDE 4.1 packages doing?16:05
nixternalya, I fixed kdm last night, there was a missing fi in the .init file16:05
jjesse_somoene forgot to change something :)16:05
nixternalArtemis_Fowl: just now starting on the kde modules16:05
nixternalI was^Wam supposed to go golfing sometime this morning^Wafternoon16:05
Artemis_Fowlnixternal: how long will it approximately take you?16:05
nixternalanother day as long as it is smoother than the foundation packages16:06
Artemis_Fowlcool16:06
jjesse_nixternal: don't know if my emails to kubuntu-users ever went through, was having problems w/ smartphone, but i did agree w all you said16:06
nixternalI gave up, those people know better than I obviously...let them rant and have issues in a place where they will not get heard by devs16:07
nixternalit is getting bad again, so many ungreatful FREE software users...this was the same reason I took a 2 year break from Linux back around 200016:08
nixternalso, if I don't just ignore it, I will end up throwing a hissy fit and walking away :)16:09
nixternalI totally enjoy people who complain, but do nothing to help anything improve16:09

jjesse_intersting the application launcher has disappeared16:13
* Nightrose hugs nixternal 16:17
DreadKnightcomplains have their good part imo16:20
DreadKnightit's like feedback :-)16:20
jjesse_yay welcome to kde 4.devel16:25
nixternalwoohoo :)16:27
nixternalbuild kdeadmin already..that was quick16:27
jjesse_needed to delete my .kde4 directory to get my desktop back and correct16:27
nixternalI still think there needs to be some tweaks to the core packages16:27
jjesse_didn't have the application launcher and other issues, but things are working16:27
nixternaljjesse_: ya, I had to do that as well16:27
=== jjesse_ is now known as jjesse
nixternalsome people didn't though16:27
DreadKnighti had some issues last night16:28
DreadKnightlike when trying to save something or upload something in firefox16:28
DreadKnightthe file chooser window was crashing FF16:28
DreadKnightand i couldn't run apps under wine16:29
jjessethe window borders are different?16:29
nixternalblue?16:29
jjesseyeah16:29
DreadKnighti had them blue as well16:29
jjessethey look a little windows 3.1 as well16:29
nixternaland I think that is changing again, which totally ruins the current set of complete docs with screenshots16:29
jjessenixternal: did you get that kget handbook changes that i made16:30
jjessei think i sent you a .dockbook file16:30
DreadKnightanyway, there is a new kde4 default theme now... xD (not in this packages ...)16:30
nixternalya, I will upload them in a bit16:30
nixternalya, that new theme is gorgeous if you ask me, at least what I saw in the screenshots16:30
nixternalmy pbuilder crashed yet again16:30
DreadKnightlooks awsome, except the clock xD16:31
DreadKnightthe analog one i mean16:31
nixternalI don't use the clocks anyways...all of those analog clocks were created as a joke in the first place, an ongoing joke at that16:31
DreadKnight:-)16:31
nixternalya, the analog ones16:31
jjessethe "default" theme?16:31
nixternalI like Wade's current blog post with the last image having all of the neon clocks..that was funny right there :)16:32
nixternaljjesse: ya, they are changing the theme again...check planetkde.org to see pics of it16:32
DreadKnightthe clock on vista had a nice effect when tongues where moving.. a slight back and forward bounce... wonder if the plasma clocks have that as well16:32
DreadKnightthat effect is a very nice realistic touch :-)16:33
nixternalyou can add it easily though16:33
DreadKnight(provided tongues move/snap from time to time, not continuous movement)16:33
DreadKnighti'm not a coder16:33
DreadKnightyou're talking about an already config option? :P16:34
nixternalnah, probably 1 or 2 lines of code to add that feature though16:34
DreadKnight:-)16:35
nixternalthere is something in kde4.1 that causes my one desktop to constantly lock up17:05
nixternalI always thought it was just svn, but now I know it isn't, as the packages also lock up the machine17:06
Riddellworking ok here17:06
nixternalya, I have a hardware issue I believe17:06
nixternalit works on my lappy just fine17:06
nixternalanother reason I believe it is hardware (possibly cpu) is because gcc will segfault when compiling every now and then as well17:07
nixternalRiddell: you were not joking when you said doing these packages would be a lot of work17:09
Riddellmm hmm17:11
Riddellhow far have you got?17:11
nosrednaekimnixternal: awesome work on these packages... they are FAST!17:12
nixternalRiddell: finished libs, pimlibs, and base*17:14
nixternalworking on kdeadmin now17:14
nixternalthe other modules shouldn't be to difficult17:14

Riddellnixternal: ready for an announcement?17:16
nixternalnot yet17:16
nixternalpossibly tomorrow17:17
nixternalI have a group of people testing them right now17:17
nixternalthus far, I think I worked out a majority of the issues with installing (especially kdebase-workspace)17:17
nosrednaekimnixternal: BTW.... I had an error on installing workspace-bin... a ksm manual page it looked like17:18
nosrednaekimI just forced an overwrite17:18
nixternalnosrednaekim: ya, that was fixed17:19
nosrednaekimok, great, that was the only problem I had.17:20
nixternalRiddell: do all of the kde 4.1 beta1 packages need automoc?17:22
nixternalnevermind, that wasn't the question I wanted to ask, that was all wrong17:22
nixternaland now I can't remember the question I was going to ask17:23
DreadKnighthow the heck to make a show desktop icon in kde4 or what's the hotkey for that?17:30

harolddongI can set my resolution as high as 1024x76817:59
harolddongis that intended?18:00
Riddellwe're not X developers18:00
harolddongso if I can only set my res to 1024x768 in the kubuntu kde 4.80 builds its an X issue?18:02
harolddongcause in kde 3 I can set it as high as I want18:02
Riddellkde shouldn't touch your resolution18:06
ScottKRiddell: It could potentiall be a tool issue though.18:07
ScottKharolddong: How are you trying to change the resolution?18:07
harolddongsystem settings/display18:08
ScottKRiddell: What tool is that in KDE4?  Is it still Guidance?18:10
harolddongI mean it seems like the setting is there to change the resolution its just that the highest available setting is 1024x76818:11
harolddongshould I be doing it another way?18:11
harolddongI just didnt know if it was supposed to be like that or not18:12
nixternaljjesse: gotta a KDE 4.1 doc task if you are interested :)18:15
ScottKharolddong: Just to be clear, it works with KDE3 and not with KDE4.  Is that right?18:15

daskreechSerega: I guess20:39
Seregashhot20:39
Seregashoot20:39
daskreechjust seems to make sense to me to have the code once in the underlying code20:39
yuriySerega: if that's the case, could you comment on the report and close if appropriate since you know what's going on there?20:39
daskreechSo any player used by the end user asks for codecs and it gets installed20:40
daskreechNo idea if that's reasonable or possible though20:40
Seregayuriy: ok. How it is going usually? Do developers periodically search launchpad for bugs in their code?20:41
yuriySerega: though it does sound like there's a bug there if it is trying to install it and failing20:41
yuriySerega: well, that's the idea :P20:41
yuriyor, better, subscribe to bugs for your software20:41
Seregadaskreech: do you mean to change libxine, mplayer and vlc? it is not a bad idea, but I believe it must be done at the debian level20:42
Seregayuriy: thanks :)20:43
yuriySerega: i could assign kaffeine codec installation bugs to you if/when I run across them if you want20:49
Seregayuriy: I would be very good thanks. I also will find a way to subscribe to there bugs.20:52
yuriySerega: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kaffeine/+subscribe will get you all kaffeine bugs. it's not too noisy compared to some other stuff but there will certainly be some stuff you don't want to hear about20:53
