yuriyhmm amarok nightly won't play mp3s anymore00:38
apacheloggerunlikely00:39
ryanakcaNice to finally have a working X if not yet a properly working KDE4...00:39
blizzzem, it actually can play something?00:39
yuriythat is, phonon claims not to be able to play mp3's00:39
yuriyif I go to the audo configuration, there seems to be no backend00:39
apacheloggerryanakca: not yet porperly working KDE4?00:39
apachelogger*evil look*00:39
apacheloggeryuriy: maybe phonon-xine is broken00:40
apacheloggeryuriy: actually is amarok-nightly-kdebase installed at all?00:40
ryanakcaapachelogger: well, it logs in, but it is *excessively* slow. And it seems to ignore the ``mv ~/.kde ~/.kde3-old && cp -fra ~/.kde4 ~/kde'' I did before logging in00:41
apacheloggerwell00:42
apacheloggermoving .kde4 to kde certainly ain't gonna work very well00:42
yuriyapachelogger: it was, but amarok-nightly-kdebase-runtime wasn't for some reason. anyways, I've installed the beta (amarok-kde4) now instead00:42
apacheloggeryuriy: -runtime is a transition package00:42
ryanakcaapachelogger: no? I thought Intrepid's KDE4 used ~/.kde ...00:42
apacheloggercp -fra ~/.kde4 ~/kde00:42
apacheloggertake a close look00:43
apacheloggerI tend to think the ~/kde is dotless00:43

seeleespecially if they have no files in ~/Desktop/03:47
seeleer, Folder plasma widget03:48
JontheEchidnait would be nice if it would go away if desktop was empty03:48
seeleno, because then no one would be able to discover it can be configured for any folder, it's not just the "Desktop"03:48
JontheEchidnagood point03:48
seeleit would be more useful if it were linked to ~ or Documents03:48
seelebut we also have old user vs. new user issues03:49
digistyl3JontheEchidna: i have to repartition my hard to install intrepid, and i can't use virtualization, because i have only 768 mb of ram, and a sempron processor, but will install intrepid in the morning i suppose :)03:49
digistyl3btw, when's the newest alpha coming out?03:49
JontheEchidnain a few days03:49
seeleolder users who upgrade will likely have something in Desktop.  fresh installs and new users will not03:49
JontheEchidnadigistyl3: there are also packages in the kde4 ppa I think03:49

digistyl3don't want to go through all the basic stuff (what is a variable... what is a function) cause i know pascal and c++ :)03:59
yuriydigistyl3: look at the tutorial on the python website. you'll need to skip over some stuff, but it's a good primer and reference04:00
ScottKdigistyl3: Python in a Nutshell might suite you, although it may be short on examples for you.04:00
ScottKyuriy: I've got a bug day idea for you.04:00
yuriyme too, to find a day for bugs04:00
digistyl3yuriy: this one? http://docs.python.org/tut/tut.html04:00
ScottKyuriy: What about a triage day devoted to finding bugs fixed in KDE3.5.10 to help make the case for pushing it to updates?04:00

smarterit's in kdebase-workspace-bin if it's not already installed09:46
larsiviit only gives me system settings09:48
larsiviafaics09:48
larsivithe problem is quite obviously that the panel is looking at the wrong screen to figure out what size it can be09:49
larsivithis was a problem with the 3.5 panel back when xrandr 1.2 and friends were originally introduced too, but that has long since been fixed09:49
larsivinote that I have no problems using the rest of the desktop09:50
larsiviah, completely removing the panel fixes the size it seems, but now I have to readd the stuff on it ...09:50

goatsocksanyone know what gui toolkit chrome will use?20:16
=== rdieter is now known as rdieter_away
seeleare there any other ways to gather user feedback besides bugs?20:37
seelei want to gather comments about the icon alignment change, but i dont want people complaining about making another arbitrary bug in launchpad20:37
seelealthough, it is the easiest and most accessible way to record it20:38
Nightroseseele: who complained? getting userfedback is a perfectly valid reason to open a bug imho20:42
Nightroseand it is not like one more or less makes a difference20:43
seeleno, but it isn't exactly bug use20:46
seeleif you as a triager don't care, then i'll keep on doing it, hehe20:46
smartera forum thread may be more appropriate, that's where you find users ;)20:47
seelei never use forums, and i'm not sure if i want to encourage regular users to alpha test stuff that could muck up their system like a broken grub menu file20:49
Nightrose+120:49
=== claydoh_ is now known as claydoh
smarterusually there's a development/bleeding-edge forum, but oh well20:52
seelethere is?  huh.  i should have probably known that20:52
seelei dunno what it is, i never liked forums.  i dont understand why you should have to go back and check for updates20:53
seeleif you get email notifications, why arent you just using a mailing list?20:53
Nightrosehehe seele doesn't seem to be a forum person20:54
Nightrosejust like me20:54
goatsocksother distros use their bug tracker for other things than strictly bugs20:55
goatsocksgentoo uses bugzilla for personnel matters even20:55
Nightrosegoatsocks: so does ubuntu20:55
* claydoh is a forum person :)20:56
claydohbut only uz k-u gets so, well, cranky :)20:56
claydohs/because/uz20:57
Nightroseclaydoh: I will be back at home tomorrow night and hope to get to your email then20:57
claydohNightrose: ok :)20:57
smartermailing-list are not very user-friendly, viewing a thread can be painful(you need to click on the "next message in thread" button for every message), etc...20:58
* Nightrose is currently _again_ drowning in a email backlog :/20:58
NightroseI should travel less20:58
smarterbut I'm an admin of the French Ubuntu forum, so I'm probably biased ;)20:58
claydohno, don't you'll miss it later20:58
* claydoh misses travelling20:58
Nightrosehehe20:59
* claydoh is biased towards forums for similar reasons, smarter :)20:59
goatsocksthe signal to noise ratio on forums is far too low when technical things are being discussed21:02
goatsocksforums are more suited to socializing than tech discussion imo21:02
=== mcas is now known as mcas_away
goatsocksof course launchpad (and bugzilla etc.) don't always live up to their potential, often on a bug report you'll have to wade through a dozen "i confirm this" comments, even after the nature of the bug has been identified ;)21:06
apacheloggerhttp://dev.chromium.org/developers/how-tos/build-instructions-linux21:10
goatsocksapachelogger: still don't see any gui toolkit depends, should i assume gtk?21:15
apacheloggerI don't know21:16
apacheloggerhttp://aplg.kollide.net/tmp/chrome.tar.bz221:20
apacheloggerbigger than firefox :P21:20
goatsockstheir svn keeps dropping out21:21
apacheloggerI am wondering hwy21:21
goatsocksi guess 168 MB has something to do with it :)21:25
goatsockslooking at the header files, seems they don't rely on external toolkits, they do their own rendering21:32
apacheloggermost reasonable21:34
apacheloggerbut I think that build instruction page is bogus21:34
apacheloggerit suggest to checkout src/chrome21:34
apacheloggerbut SConstruct expects ../build21:34
apacheloggerok, this checkout is going to take forever21:38
goatsocksthey've probably been slashdotted21:39
apacheloggerha21:39
apacheloggergoogle servers don't get slashdotted :P21:40
apacheloggerit's just that this svn is gigantic21:40
goatsockssvn isn't known for its resource friendliness21:40
apacheloggerall of webkit + ff2 + ff3 + scons + about 10 libraries....21:40
apacheloggerohhhhh21:41
apacheloggerthat thing even got an about memory page21:41
apacheloggerthis is too awesome21:41
apachelogger<3 geekware21:41
goatsocksyeah, i heard it can tell you the mem usage of individual plug-ins and such21:42
apacheloggeryes21:42
apacheloggernot just that21:42
apacheloggerit can differ by private and shared memory21:42
apacheloggerand for the virtual kind between private and mapped21:42
apacheloggerincognito mode :D21:43
goatsocksthat too, i know of one privacy-related project that is already considering using chrome for that feature21:43
apacheloggerright, they fixed the build indstructions to use src instead of src/chrome21:50
goatsockscnn just did a spot on chrome21:54
goatsocksMS is probably crapping themselves21:55
JontheEchidnaI heard about chrome on the radio21:55
goatsockslooks like the webkit canvas is used for everything, even the tabs and controls21:55
goatsocksa bit like a XUL app in that respect21:56
JontheEchidnathey should've used Qt21:56
goatsocksJontheEchidna: at least they didn't opt for gtk or wx ;)21:57
JontheEchidnayes21:57
apacheloggerI really don't care21:57
apacheloggerit looks hot21:57
apacheloggereverything else doesn't matter21:57
goatsocksheh21:57
JontheEchidnacan has screenshot?21:57
apacheloggerhail chrome!21:57
JontheEchidna*can haz screenshot?21:57
apacheloggerun moment, s'il te plaƮt21:58

* apachelogger is wondering why ksnapshot is not ported to windows21:59
* JontheEchidna suspects a nasty X dependency22:00
seeleoh i so wish22:00
seele<3 ksnapshot22:00
apachelogger<3 ksnapshot 222:00
apacheloggerhttp://aplg.kollide.net/tmp/chrome.jpg22:00
JontheEchidnahot22:01
apacheloggerand I think there is some bug on kubuntu.org22:01
apacheloggerrendering takes awfully long22:01
apacheloggerand it fails completely in qtwebkit22:01
Riddellworks here in arora22:02
apacheloggerhm, then maybe kdewebkit screws up22:02
apacheloggeromg, that checkout is still running22:03
goatsocksi admire how they've reclaimed some space from the window manager's titlebar22:03
goatsockswhat does it look like non-maximized?22:03
seelewow, theyre very serious about using the tab metaphor correctly22:04
JontheEchidnagoatsocks: http://media.arstechnica.com/journals/linux.media/300/chrome.png22:05
goatsocksseele: you like how tabs were originally used in smalltalk back in the 70's? ;)22:05
goatsockss/you like/you mean like/22:06
* seele suspects chrome will be optimized to work with google cloud apps22:06
seelegoatsocks: not necessarily, but that is the correct way to use the tab metaphor22:06
apacheloggerseele: it is already22:06
apacheloggerthe whole purpose of chrome is to make better use of google's apps22:06
apacheloggerand I have to say, I love that interface22:06
seeleapachelogger: there are functions in google apps that only work in chrome?22:06
apacheloggerseele: not yet, but for example the javascript engine rewrite was only because of the google apps22:07
apacheloggerthey are making heavy use of js22:07
seeleah22:07
apacheloggerand chrome comes with a built in google gears22:07
apacheloggerso you can take google docs and reader offline22:07
seelehmm.. didnt konq developers discuss trying to put tools inside the document area below the tabs for a while?22:08
seelealthough i think they tried putting it in the document instead of moving the toolbar below the tab22:08
apachelogger\sh: oh22:08
seeleit makes a lot of sense.. it's kindof weird how you click on a tab in other browsers and a static item changes22:08
apachelogger\sh: do you have a wine trunk build? if so, could you try running chrome?22:08
seeleif the location bar belongs to the tab, it isn't as awkward since it is conceptually a new page22:08
JontheEchidnaapachelogger: I have a somewhat recent wine build22:09
JontheEchidnawine-1.1.2-307-g520ab5c22:09
JontheEchidnaeek, 1 minor version behind22:09
apacheloggerrofl22:10
apachelogger2.4G    .22:10
apacheloggerthat source is gigantic22:10
goatsocksugh22:10
* JontheEchidna facepalms22:11
* apachelogger starts compression22:11
goatsockseither that, or they have 10 years worth of svn history stored22:11
apacheloggeronly 1600 revisions IIRC22:11
apacheloggerbut webkit itself is already quite big22:12
JontheEchidnaok, the installer doesn't work with my wine22:13
goatsockstime to reboot and see if these 4.1.1 updates blow up my system, brb22:13
* JontheEchidna git's up22:13
* JontheEchidna git up's22:13
apacheloggerJontheEchidna: maybe I should send you the downloaded stuff22:16
JontheEchidnaok22:17
apacheloggeror maybe not :P22:18
goatsocksyay, kdesudo works again with Login Manager from System Settings22:21
JontheEchidnaapachelogger got a patch from fedora for that22:21
JontheEchidnawhich was nice of them22:22
apacheloggerthey got a << "-i" << QString( mItem->service->icon() ) << in return22:22
* apachelogger even remembered that syntax :P22:22
* goatsocks is impressed22:23
JontheEchidnawhat does that do?22:23
JontheEchidnamake the icons for the modules work with kdesudo?22:23
apacheloggeryus22:24
apacheloggerwe also have an << "-d" << before that22:24
apacheloggerthat doesn't make too much sense with kdesu though22:24
JontheEchidnathe icon is tinier than most apps22:25
apacheloggeryeah, I need to poke master tonio22:25
apacheloggerkdesudo currentl expects an icon file rather than an icon name22:25
apacheloggerand I really don't see why systemsettings should create an icon file path just because kdesudo isn't inteligent enough22:26
JontheEchidnaapachelogger: currently systemsettings freezes once it launches kdesudo22:26
JontheEchidnaif you cancel22:27
apacheloggerkdesudo's fault22:27
JontheEchidnawhee22:27
apacheloggerrun kdesudo in gdb22:27
apacheloggerit doesn't quit upon cancel22:27
JontheEchidnathat's probably why I sometimes get a kdesudo when session is restored on startup...22:28
JontheEchidnaapachelogger: chromeSetup.exe doesn't work with the latest Wine22:28
apacheloggerthat could also be caused by the sudo cache22:29
apacheloggerbut caching or not if I click cancel the app should go away22:29
JontheEchidnamaybe latest git will work22:30
JontheEchidnastill buildign22:30
claydohhttp://dev.chromium.org/developers/how-tos/build-instructions-linux22:35
claydoh:(22:35
apacheloggerclaydoh: ?22:36
apacheloggeroh, btw22:36
apacheloggerhttp://aplg.kollide.net/tmp/chrome-svn.tar.bz2 this should be an usable checkout22:37
claydohbut does it build/run?22:38
goatsocksapachelogger: final size?22:39
apacheloggerit's the 2.4 gib checkout without svn22:39
apacheloggertrunk/src22:39
apacheloggerwhich should include everything for building22:40
apacheloggerand looking at it building will take ages22:40
goatsocksapachelogger: i mean after bzipping ;)22:40
apacheloggerdunno22:40
apachelogger1.1G    .22:41
goatsocksguess i might grab it later then if i feel like hacking22:41
apacheloggerparty in #chromium22:51
goatsocksnice, 4.1.1 seems to have fixed most of the issues i had with 4.1.0, now i'm just waiting for kdepim to be updated ;)22:54
apacheloggerit still isn't built?22:55
goatsocksdunno, but it's not on the mirrors22:55
* JontheEchidna has it on i38622:55
goatsockswell kdepim 4.1.1 proper is there, but its depends aren't22:55

apacheloggerpicasa 3.022:57
apacheloggergoogle is certainly in a good mood22:57
blizzzbut there is still no native linux client for picasa, is it?22:59
apacheloggerwell22:59
apacheloggerthere is a kipi uploader22:59
apacheloggerand that is all what is necessary22:59
apacheloggerIMO they should dump the whole client and make it a full blown web app22:59
goatsockschrome should make that easier for them23:00
apacheloggeryups23:00
goatsocksit's all coming together now, their evil plan23:00
apacheloggeras long as I get enough online storage I don't care about the evil plan23:01

ScottK-palmapachelogger: Would you please look into the kde4bindings FTBFS on lpia?  I can't really do it on my phone.23:05
ScottK-palmI think I got everything requeued for amd64, so it should be good.23:05
apacheloggerScottK-palm: sure, just need to find it23:06
* apachelogger got 100 package mails or something23:06
ScottK-palmYeah, well some I retried too soon.  Sorry about that.23:07
apacheloggercp obj-*-linux-gnu/lib/qt-dotnet.dll debian/libqyoto4.3-cil/usr/lib/cli/qyoto-4.3/23:07
apacheloggercp: cannot stat `obj-*-linux-gnu/lib/qt-dotnet.dll': No such file or directory23:07
JontheEchidnalet's blame it on windows23:08
apacheloggerScottK-palm: I think we need to prevent qyoto stuff from building on lpia23:08
ScottK-palmAFAICT we are good on i386, amd64, ia64, and sparc.23:08
apacheloggerbut since I have no clue about qyoto I'd rather have Riddell do that23:08
ScottK-palmhppa will need some retries after kdebase-workspace finishes.23:09
ScottK-palmMaybe someone could make an lpia pbuilder (you can on i386) and try to replicate it. I'm relectant to just randomly retry it.23:11
* ScottK-palm decides to sign off and focus on driving.23:12
JontheEchidnaoO23:13
JontheEchidnapalm piloting while driving?23:13
apacheloggerOo23:13
JontheEchidnaoO23:14
apacheloggerand I thought I was an ubergeek when I made an audio blog while driving23:14
* JontheEchidna stops23:14
JontheEchidnaI have IRC'd on my DS before23:15
* goatsocks is beginning to realize why so many geeks are involved in auto accidents23:16
apacheloggerwell, we at least don't package software while driving .... that would be dangerous because of the focus disorder _and_ the possability of falling asleep23:18
blizzzyou need a driver23:19
* blizzz suggests ScottK23:21
ScottK-palmThe lpia buildds were all idle, so I just hit retry.23:23
apacheloggerblizzz: I could have had a driver @ Linux Tag :P23:30
blizzzapachelogger: i doubt that'd be faster than public transport.23:31
blizzzand going by public transport is more fun (for the others, though, but hey...)23:32
apacheloggerblizzz: it's only fun with cool people23:34
blizzzapachelogger: i remember emonkey... with his very dreadful grimaces23:36
apacheloggerblizzz: cool, not embarrassing :P23:37
blizzzoftentimes coolness and embarassness is divided by a fine line only23:39
apacheloggerchrome is cool23:39
apacheloggerI think I got a crush on a web browser23:40
apacheloggerthat sounds way too sick23:40
blizzznot embarrassing?23:40
blizzz at least, this is embarrassing23:40
apacheloggerblizzz: that depends on the pov23:44
apacheloggerI knew people who are in love with music players23:45
