mvonever too late for a hug :)11:04

seb128lool: you know you can open upstream bugs directly upstream so bug triagers don't have to do ping pong between launchpad and bugzilla for you ;-)12:15
loolI usually do this when I reproduce with tip12:34
seb128lool: and there is no need to open bugs twice ;-)12:42
ubuntakiashi12:49
ubuntakiascan someone help me to change my icons?12:49
seb128hey, try #ubuntu for user questions rather12:49
ubuntakiasi asked but none answered :(12:50
seb128try again later then12:50
ubuntakiasok np12:50
seb128this channel is to get work done, if we start replying to questions there it'll turn to an user question channel and we will not get work done12:51
loolseb128: I didn't open bug twice; LP timed out when submitting bugs12:51
loolFor two bugs12:51
loolI disabled edge and checked that this was reported against LP12:51
seb128lool: ah, it did open the bug but timeouted when trying to display the page then12:51
seb128no problem, I have issue using edge too today12:52
seb128pedro_: hey13:03
pedro_hello seb12813:04
seb128pedro_: how do you close those bug using those "Closing the report" title?13:04
pedro_seb128: using a script, do you want it?13:04
seb128pedro_: tell me about it before ;-)13:04
seb128does it take a bug number only? or does it list bugs to close using some criterious?13:05
pedro_seb128: it's a python-launchpad script, you just need to pass it the bug number(s) to it and it will close it for you13:05
pedro_i haven't found a safe way to list the bugs for close with python-launchpad yet, it always list some that have responses13:06
pedro_so i prefer to use lp for that and pass it the bug numbers i'd like to close to the script13:07
pedro_works better that way IMO13:07
seb128pedro_: can you give me the code? ;-) I'm not sure it's faster than greasmonkey but I will have a look13:08
pedro_seb128: yup, let me put it into pastebin, one min13:08
seb128pedro_: and I'm not sure I like the fact that you change the title to not mention the bug description, it means other people have to open the mail to know what bug you are closing13:08
pedro_seb128: http://paste.ubuntu.com/64076/13:09
seb128pedro_: thanks13:09
mvoseb128: meh, what is #260492 all about? it has millions of comments13:28
seb128mvo: using the open with option used to change the default association13:29
seb128mvo: ie, right click on a directory, open with eog and eog was set as the application to open directories13:29
seb128mvo: that has been fixed in intrepid13:29
seb128mvo: interesting thing is that gnome-panel in hardy didn't respect the default application association13:30
seb128mvo: but it does in intrepid now13:30
mvoI'm curious why ther is a updat-emanager task open13:30
mvoit seems like this is not the realm of it13:30
seb128mvo: because some people think that something should fix the user config automatically on upgrade13:31
seb128mvo: well technically the bug is fixed, nautilus will not write buggy configuration in intrepid13:31
seb128mvo: but people who used open with on a directory will have a weird config after upgrade13:31
seb128I suggest to slangasek to write it in the upgrade notes13:32
seb128suggested13:32
seb128not sure if my explanation make sense13:33
mvoyeah, makes sense13:34
mvosounds like it should go into the upgrade notes indeed13:34
seb128well, I'm not the one who opened the update-manager task there ;-)13:35
seb128bug #26049213:38
ubottuLaunchpad bug 260492 in nautilus "opening a directory using an application change associations incorrectly" [Medium,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/26049213:39
mvoseb128: hm, do you know how good/usable smclient in libegg is? I consider using it in update-notifier to get rid of the last remaining libgnomeui bits14:51
seb128mvo: nautilus 2.25 is using it so I would say it works, alex usually knows what he's doing14:52
seb128mvo: should #264368 be reassigned somewhere?15:04
seb128mvo: where would you reassign it? ;-) xorg-server?15:06
mvolooking15:06
mvoyeah, -intel and -ati driver I think15:07
seb128I had it crashing too when xorg.conf was still using xaa15:08
seb128could be that they have some xorg options which create the issue15:08
mvogood idea15:10
=== dobey_ is now known as dobey
james_wI just enquired whether there was any code for the proposed new user management tool that would allow us to get rid of g-s-t, and there is none yet, so it doesn't look like that will be feasible for Jaunty unless a couple of Ubuntu developers start it off.16:36
mvojames_w: thanks for this! writing a user managment tool can not be hard, can it (famous last words I guess ;)17:17
james_wmvo: have you seen the design?17:23
mvojames_w: ages ago I saw a wiki page about it I think17:25
mvo(weeks/months, not sure)17:25
james_wit was a pdf17:25
james_wI pointed it out at a desktop team meeting a few months ago17:26
mvohm, I probably saw something different then17:27
james_whttp://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-desktop-list/2008-May/msg00006.html17:30
mvojames_w: hm, that looks pretty nice17:37
james_wI'd just like to get rid of g-s-t :-)17:37
mvome too17:41
mvoactually this is something we talk about since ~warty :) and each release we get one step closer17:41

tedgchrisccoulson: Afternoon.21:06
chrisccoulsonhi. i wanted to talk with you about laptop hotkeys and g-p-m21:07
chrisccoulsoni've seen a few reports recently of suspend keys not working, and it appears to be because the xkeysym's which the suspend keys emit are not the one that g-p-m grabs21:08
chrisccoulsoni'm not sure whether g-p-m is meant to grab them or whether there is another issue21:08
chrisccoulsonthe keys that don't work emit XF86Standby, but g-p-m only grabs XF86Sleep21:08
