[00:18] That'd be a bug then because fish is pretty ancient. [00:18] It ought to work with sftp. [00:28] When does merging start? [00:28] ryanakca: Once Jaunty opens. Not sure exactly when that'll be. [00:29] ryanakca: In the mean time, send bugs with patches to Debian so maybe it's more syncing and less merging. [00:29] ScottK: *nods*, will do [00:29] thanks [00:38] ScottK: Nov 6 i think? [00:38] * DaSkreech agrees [00:39] seele: For what? Sorry. [00:40] * DaSkreech agrees with that statement as well [00:40] hah [00:40] Jaunty opens, heh. I guess context helps [00:41] OK. [00:43] wow, awesomeness -- Xon/Xoff flowcontrol in Konsole results in a cute little FYI bar to tell you what's going on [00:43] yet another *nice* touch [00:49] seele: I thought you might find http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/archives/001182.html interesting. [00:52] ScottK: ooo, that book looks interesting [00:52] * seele wonders if they cover 7+-2 [00:53] oh ho ho, that just reminded me to buy i book i have a 40% coupon for which expires today [00:54] the book is normally 149 but the coupon takes $60 off [01:15] That's a pretty good deal [01:15] Oh expires today [01:16] I was going to say wait till the book dropped to 50 dollars then get them to pay you 10 dollars to take it [01:20] is bug #292403 really adepts fault? rather than apt? [01:20] Launchpad bug 292403 in adept "MASTER firefox 3.03 in kubuntu 8.10 requires gnome apps" [Medium,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/292403 [01:20] it's not going to drop in price any time soon, it was just published last year [01:23] ah right [01:23] Wait [01:23] expires today? [01:23] how are you going to make use of it? [01:24] DaSkreech: They have this thing called the Internet and it has stores. [01:24] ;-) === echidnaman is now known as JontheEchidna [02:10] lol [02:14] Which store sells this internet? [03:02] * ScottK ponders a competition for the most sarcastic answer to the latest post to kubuntu-devel ML. [03:02] Prize? [03:03] Haven't gotten that far. [03:03] Too distracted by kdiamond. [03:03] MMM [03:03] trunk? [03:08] No, Intrepid. [03:08] 4.1.2 [03:08] Playing, not packaging. [03:08] Well You can have trunk and play it :) it's nice on trunk [03:09] DaSkreech: This is the laptop I use for $WORK. No trunk on it. [03:09] Hmm I might get a laptop [03:09] * DaSkreech dislikes laptops [03:21] yuriy's entry seems not at all sarcastic. [03:24] hmm kdemultimedia/kmix defines the increaseVolume calls and the dbus interface [03:24] canada. You would have thougth he was more clueful. [03:24] what is the package that contains what actually maps the buttons to those dbus calls? [03:25] IIRC it was kmilo that did it in KDE3 [03:27] ah, found it. [03:27] What is it? [03:27] kscd in kdemultimedia [03:27] We had a kmilo-kde4 for a while in Hardy, but it's gone now ... [03:27] registers it as a global keybinding [03:28] Ah. [03:28] now to trace the codepath [03:28] wait that's not right [03:29] + connect(globalAction, SIGNAL(triggered(bool) ), SLOT(slotIncreaseVolume())); [03:29] that's what I want [03:29] introduced by magical debian/patches/kubuntu_02_kmix_keyboard_shortcuts.diff [03:29] oh PFFT FFS!

[03:31] * ScottK figures it's a good bet you're in the right area when the line before says FIXME [03:32] :) [03:32] Next question is, is it changed in KDE 4.1.3? [03:33] well considering this is a kubuntu patch, I'm not sure [03:33] Probably not. [03:33] while I hack at this code to get the right behavior, would you mind checking if the 4.1.3 packaging is any different? [03:33] you'd know better than me where to look [03:34] jdong: vorian is going to check. [03:34] * vorian waves [03:34] :D [03:35] jdong: can you get me a paste of your trace? [03:35] I don't believe we did any fixing for patches in 4.1.3 [03:35] rrrr [03:36] in kdemultimedia [03:36] i was going to check the source [03:36] well I haven't checked either but I don't *think* we did [03:36] righto [03:36] mixer->setMute("Master:0", false); //FIXME, don't hardcode deviceids [03:36] mixer->increaseVolume("PCM:0"); [03:36] it would be fun if patches maintained themselves :P [03:37] vorian: stuff that looks like that. just grep for PCM:0 in debian/patches :) [03:37] oh nice [03:37] yeah, only keyboard patches [03:39] not much changed either in 4.1.3 [03:40] This is a regression from KDE3/Hardy that a lot of people have complained about, so if we could include a fix in our 4.1.3 upload, that'd be really kewl. [03:43] ohmy [03:43] /// @DCOP WHAT DOES THIS METHOD?!?!? [03:48] ok, gonna do a quick testbuild and see if this changes anything meaningful :D [03:49] am I crazy, or are ctrl-pgup/pgdn inverted when switching konsole tabs? [03:49] i.e. pgup moves right and pgdn moves left, counterintuitive to what I expected [03:51] nice, y'all use cmake with percentage indication [03:51] (doesn't it give you a warm and fuzzy feeling that some clueless GNOME fanboy is patching your code? :D) [03:52] jdong: near as I recall that's an old bug. You can swap them yourself I think [03:52] DaSkreech: by... redefining 3 hotkeys explicitly, yeah [03:53] DaSkreech: I'm trying to get it to read the master channel preference in kmix [03:53] which is what it should do intuitively [03:53] to my humble eye it doesn't seem like an "old bug" as much as the old bug was ported over to KDE4 in a new and blunter way :) [03:53] :-0 [03:53] ;-) [03:53] :) [03:57] DaSkreech: oh wait you mean the konsole thing [03:57] sorry I was talking about the kmix thing :) [03:57] :-) [03:57] well... at any rate, it would be nice to have it fixed correctly :D [03:57] Hey is there a GUI wine thing? [03:57] I seem to remember there being one [03:57] * DaSkreech wants working sound [03:58] System settings used to have a Wine entry [03:59] grumble one day I should just properly set up a COW thingie. [03:59] this whole tmpfs+/var/cache unionfs thing is just silly [04:00] DaSkreech: nope, didn't port that [04:00] Damn [04:00] NEed to remember the command line setup then [04:01] winecfg not good enough? [04:01] That was it winecfg!! [04:01] guidance-wineconfig was basically winecfg with the theme-color getter iirc [04:01] which was a very handy feature :) [04:01] * yuriy should just turn that into a script [04:02] What's Wine-auto ? [04:03] wow, no FTBFS yet. [04:03] In kernel? [04:03] * JontheEchidna -> bed [04:03] kmix :) [04:03] ok :-) [04:03] yup it made it past kmix [04:03] now the question is, is this fix gonna work? :) [04:07] well it's 95% correct. [04:07] or 50% correct normalized more rudely [04:07] you can only crank it up [04:07] oh duh [04:07] [04:07] void KMixWindow::slotDecreaseVolume() [04:07] + mixer->increaseVolume(master->id()); [04:08] Funny part with my kmix is that I need to turn down the volume on Videos to hear anything [04:16] ScottK: almost got final verification of fix, just involves an updated kubuntu_02_bleh.patch [04:16] what's your preferred way of submitting the patch? [04:19] confirmed, fixed. [04:19] hotkeys now follow whatever the master channel is set as in kmix :) [04:21] jdong: apachelogger has been coordinating the 4.1.3 preps. I'd ask him, but in the meantime, I'm sure there's a bug you could attach the patch to. [04:21] yeah I'm gonna pick bug 267245 [04:21] Launchpad bug 267245 in kdemultimedia "Keyboard volume keys only change PCM volume" [Undecided,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/267245 [04:21] looks to be the most triaged of the dupes [04:23] jdong: We'll have additional monthly 4.1.x updates we're feeding into Intrepid, so if there's more stuff like this, we've got good targets for getting the fixes deployed. [04:25] ScottK: awesome. Patch attached to bug 267245; I see that Riddell assigned himself to the bug so hopefully whoever can get the fix in will get the message :) [04:25] Launchpad bug 267245 in kdemultimedia "Keyboard volume keys only change PCM volume" [Undecided,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/267245 [04:35] Is ark broken? [04:37] DaSkreech: 'Lacking some features of ark for KDE3' [04:37] DaSkreech: What specifically? [04:37] :-) Like making an archive? [04:38] .tar.gz support got stuffed in at the vary last minute, so if that's what you're trying, I'd try a different format. .bz2 is more mature. [04:38] Wha'ts the workflow to make one? [04:39] Dunno. I haven't actually had to do it. [04:39] Short story is that nothing seems to work [04:40] mmkay, so next up: brightness keys!1 [04:40] * jdong is gonna fix ALL of KDE4 tonight ;-) [04:41] Those mostly work and are controlled by Guidance Power Manager. [04:41] jdong: You can't possibly :) [04:41] So please don't be breaking them what do work already. [04:41] hmm my macbook keys aren't working at all [04:41] but they do work in GNOME [04:41] OK. Then go for it. [04:42] guidance has working brightness sliders in its UI [04:42] just need to figure out why the keymappings don't [04:42] Excellent. [04:43] * DaSkreech is not aware of how this works [04:43] If we add features but don't bump a version would it be accepted in Ibex? [04:44] DaSkreech: It depends on what you mean. [04:44] In general new features are out. [04:44] If it's a regression from Hardy KDE3, then maybe. [04:44] If Jdong fixes all of KDE4 tonight can we ship those changes now in Ibex ? [04:45] Yeah. He's bug fixing. That's fine. We're prep'ing 4.1.3 for intrepid-updates now. [04:45] Ahh Ok :0 [04:45] Sweet [04:45] Forward port the changed to trunk :) [04:46] Yep. [04:46] So far he fixed a Kubuntu specific patch, so nothing to forward. [04:47] * DaSkreech is almost anxious for KDE 4.2 to be out [04:48] We'll put that in intrepid-backports once it's released. [05:40] mornfall: Is there any support in Adept 3 for installing from pinned repositories (like backports.org for example)? [05:41] Not that I know of. [05:42] mornfall: We're looking at reworking how backports works in Ubuntu to make it easier to get one package out of Ubuntu backports and not all of the updates. [05:43] Would there be any chance of getting something in the Jaunty timeframe? [05:43] And the timeframe is? [05:45] The next Ubuntu release, so released 6 months from now. [05:45] Ideally we'd get feature work done in the next 3 months or so. [05:46] mornfall: Feature Freeze is February 19th [05:47] Well, if I get a concise list of what's needed, I can try to come up with something over the winter holidays or so. [05:47] mornfall: OK. We're still working it out. Thanks. [05:48] I'll have to set some priorities and drop everything that's not important enough. [05:48] Understand. Isn't that how it always works ... [05:48] Sort of, yes. [06:51] hi there [06:51] hai [09:01] morning [09:01] morning Riddell [09:07] Riddell: I had trouble building kde this WE. So I have no update on the bluetooth issue yet. [09:07] * hunger will continue to try building trunk. [10:09] if I'm added a translatable string in a patch to a KDE 4 package, do I just wrap in i18n() or do I need to do something else to get the translations updated? [10:14] you're adding a translatable string to intrepid? [10:20] smarter: yes [10:20] bug #290589 [10:20] Launchpad bug 290589 in kde4libs "Long dbus command displayed on dialog when trying to mount hard drive via dolphin" [Undecided,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/290589 [10:22] stdin: KDE uses extract-messages.sh $srcdir/Messages.sh to create the pot file [10:23] but imho the best way to do that is to fill a bug upstream and send your patch [10:23] (btw, most users won't know what "hal" is and why it needs privileges :P) [10:23] it's not an upstream issue, it's an issue with one of our patches [10:25] oh [10:25] looks like extract-messages.sh gets run in kde4.mk anyway, so that would export the strings to launchpad [10:26] ... I think [10:26] or is that just .destkop files [11:44] wow, webkit in konq is real nice, shame about the missing flash though. [11:47] jussi01: using svn or our packages? [12:02] Riddell: just the webkitkde package of ours [12:03] it actually renders the pages correctly, which is really nice for a change... [12:08] Riddell: if it had plugin availability, Ie flash, java etc, I would then find konqui actually useful for web browsing - (based on about an hour of use mind you) === me___ is now known as apachelogger_ [13:03] ScottK: are you still having trouble with kmail crashing on close? [13:04] ack.. my calendar converted to UTC. [13:08] seele: It's been quite some time since I rebooted/closed it, so no idea. I'd be suprised if it didn't happen since it's happened with the current version. [13:16] ScottK: did you try with 4.1.3? [13:16] apachelogger_: No. I'm waiting until 4.1.3 hits -proposed to install it so I can count as an official "It works" for SRU verification. [13:17] okies [13:19] apachelogger_: Did yo usee jdong's volume key patch? [13:23] no, wasn't able to check quasse yet [13:23] still @work [13:25] apachelogger_: OK. Just want to make sure we roll it into the 4.1.3 upload since it fixes a regression. [13:27] can do [13:34] ive been visiting kubuntu.net wondering why there is no mention of the intrepid release.. and now i see there is kubuntu.org [13:34] so whats happened with kubuntu.net ? [13:35] exobuzz: sysadmins failed to update it when new website came on, I have an outstanding rt ticket with them about it [13:36] oh [13:37] I'll add poking sysadmins to my todo list :) [13:38] * apachelogger_ didn't even know there was kubuntu.net [13:38] thanks [13:38] i thought kubuntu.net was the main site [13:38] :) [13:40] it does seem kindof silly there are two kubuntu sites like that [13:41] kubuntu.net should just redirect to kubuntu.org... [13:41] maybe its a website marketing ploy [13:41] ;-) [13:53] What's the standard answer for people who complain about Katapult is missing in KDE4? [13:54] "use krunner" ? [13:54] just tell them to press alt+f2 ;-) [13:55] use katapult [13:56] JontheEchidna: Thanks. [13:56] apachelogger_: ? [14:08] !info katapult [14:08] Package katapult does not exist in intrepid [14:08] hm, apparently it got removed [14:12] apachelogger_: Yes. It's KDE3 only. It looks like the alt-F2 thing is a reasonable replacement (not identical, so people will scream). [14:14] I've heard good things about krunner from katapult users in #kubuntu [14:14] it does pretty much the same thing, it just looks a little different and i think the shortcuts are a littls different [14:14] but then again I've heard good things about KDE4 there too ;) [14:15] you have to type =1+2 instead of just 1+2 [14:16] Would it make sense to have krunner 'replace' katapult in a packaging sense? My upgraded system still had a non-working katapult installed after the upgrade. [14:18] I suppose a conflict/replace on it in kdebase-workspace-bin would do the trick [14:18] well technically it doesn't conflict [14:19] Not sure. [14:19] doesn't make sense [14:19] krunner depends half of kdebase-workspace [14:19] I do think finding a way to get non-working KDE3 stuff off of systems that upgrade is generically good. [14:19] unlike katapult which only required kdelibs IIRC [14:20] ScottK: update-manager would remove packages which were removed from the archives I think [14:20] Well it doesn't exist in a KDE4 version and the KDE3 version doesn't work, so it ought to go somehow. [14:20] why does the katapult KDE 3 version not work btw? [14:21] apachelogger_: Nope. This was part of the idea behind the currently much maligned 'cruft cleaner' [14:21] For the one test I gave it, it looked on the wrong place for the binary and failed. [14:21] So it runs, it just didnd't know how to launch stuff. [14:22] That's fairly fatal given it's purpose. [14:22] sounds weird though [14:22] Dunno. I've removed it now, so it'd be a pain to put it back. [14:23] * ScottK wonders why mez is blogging on planed KDE about his Gnome install. [15:19] hi guys, is there any news regarding when bluetooth will be available for 8.10 ? [15:28] rien-ne-va-plus: It's being actively worked. I asked one of the people working on it late last week and they said at least a couple more weeks. [15:30] ScottK: thanks for the info - ill try gnome-bluez then [15:34] apachelogger: It turned out I had katapult running still. It appears it still works for kde3 apps and fails on kde4 apps (looks at /usr/lib/kde4/bin/kate for example) [15:37] ScottK, yes I can confirm that, I've got the same problem, but for now I'm just using the search in K-Menu or krunner, not that bad, works fine or me [15:37] *for [15:41] emonkey: katapult is kde3 only, so you'd best start geting used to those alternatives. They're the way of the future.... [15:41] Yes I practice that for about a week [16:20] I have a conundrum... I can get my strings in solid translated, but it'll require linking solid against kdecore [17:08] ScottK: probably some stupid patch [17:08] there is no reason why it would look in usr/lib/kde4/bin [17:12] Nightrose: ETA for beta3? [17:13] apachelogger: on it now - 2 hours, maybe 3 [17:14] okies [17:14] *updating* [17:14] * Tm_T is struggling with cmake segfaults [17:23] jdong: thanks for the patch [17:23] apachelogger: absolutely, my pleasure. KDE4 is shaping to be really awesome :) [17:24] jdong: glad to hear, though I have to mention that 4.1 is crap compared to trunk ;-) [17:25] apachelogger: I can certainly imagine! [17:32] apachelogger: I've just about got my system back to normal after the fresh install. I am planning on trying out KDE 4.2 trunk in a vm. I assume a Kubuntu Intrepid image, apt-get remove kdelibs5 and add the neon repo and install the kde nightly?: Correct or do you have a better suggestion [17:32] rgreening: IMHO you should let the regular KDE stick around [17:33] using neon's KDM is a) very dangerous b) very hackish [17:33] so you would have to use XDM or GDM [17:34] apachelogger: ah... ok, so if I leave regular KDE around, How should I install nightly and how do I properly launch/run from that install? [17:34] install the package kde-nightly then you should have a session option in KDM [17:35] kde-nightly only brings in kdebase, for the other stuff you'll need to install kde-nightly-foobar [17:35] * apachelogger counts votes on ncommander's motu application [17:35] ty apachelogger [17:42] bug 292403 [17:42] Launchpad bug 292403 in firefox-3.0 "MASTER firefox 3.03 in kubuntu 8.10 requires gnome apps" [Medium,Won't fix] https://launchpad.net/bugs/292403 [17:43] * apachelogger thinks we should drop kubuntu-desktop and just make all of KDE recommend all of KDE [17:43] after all, you don't get the complete konqueror experience without being able to embedd dragonplayer's kpart [17:45] +1 [17:46] jdong: Interested in another key mapping problem? [17:47] JontheEchidna: suggestins for a course of action? [17:47] mmmm.... [17:47] * apachelogger thinks about making it affact every single package manager we have [17:48] apt, aptitude, update-manager, adept, synaptic [17:48] kpackage [17:48] though, does kpackage download stuff at all? [17:49] packagekit [17:49] smartpm [17:49] I think that should be all [17:52] * ScottK restrains himself from commenting in the Firefox bug. [17:53] ScottK: why so [17:53] ScottK: trying to unbreak my brightness keys :) [17:53] jdong: OK. When your ready for another one, let me know. [17:54] Tm_T: Because I'm trying to have a more positive attitude and pasting asac all over the bug for his dismissive attitude about Kubuntu wouldn't fit that. [17:54] ScottK: the bug mentioned above? [17:54] Yes. [17:54] roger [17:54] JontheEchidna: would update-manager actually install the recommends? [17:55] * apachelogger isn't too sure about that [17:55] perhaps if firefox got dragged in as a new package that needed to be installed [17:55] ScottK: interestingly it seems like installing kde4 also broke GNOME's brightness keys, has to do with keymapping [17:55] trying to investigate [17:55] they did change apt to automagically install recommends [17:55] it turns the brightness keys into audio stop/play keys. [17:55] that's a nice feature because my macbook doesn't have stop/play keys [17:56] though I would like my brighness keys back :D [17:56] lol [17:56] JontheEchidna: Yep. [17:56] jdong: check the xmodmap files in /etc/X11/Xsession.d/ [17:56] * ScottK came up with a productive suggestion. [17:56] and /usr/share/kubuntu-default-settings/kubuntu.xmodmap [17:57] I'm pretty sure this file isn't up to date with keysym changes, but don't have the hardware to test the keys [17:57] xev output should be helpful [17:57] smarter: that modmap wouldn't get used in GNOME [17:58] in fact, I doubt it would in KDE, because the path is non-kiosked :P [17:58] it is used in KDE [17:58] so the answer to bug 292403 is "stuff you KDE" :| [17:58] Launchpad bug 292403 in update-manager "MASTER firefox 3.03 in kubuntu 8.10 requires gnome apps" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/292403 [17:58] ScottK: that comment is too logical by the way ;-) [17:58] and I removed a line in it which made the ins key map to play or something like that [17:58] apachelogger: ;-) [18:00] hi Hobbsee [18:01] stdin: the answer is that apachelogger takes certain comments very literally and makes everyone aware that he is disappointed in the disobeying of standards :P [18:03] standards only apply when Ubuntu want's them to [18:04] ScottK/ apachelogger: I can't wait to see what happens when we have a qt firefox package. Is it going to be "you need all the gnome apps to be useful" stupidity again? [18:04] rgreening: very likely, TBH firefox is not the best example of cross-desktop applications [18:05] * rgreening thinks there should be a ff-gnome and ff-kde and ff-gnome holds the gnome deps as reccommends [18:05] We'll just make the KDE stuff recommends too using the same logic and see how it goes.

[18:10] you did, it's waiting for freetime [18:10] jdong: looks like X11 is using another translation table than the one you checked [18:10] ok who else is in on the idea? [18:11] well I'm only developer I know [18:11] bit busy until baby is born, after that who knows [18:11] Publicized it any? [18:11] * DaSkreech chuckles. [18:11] * rgreening probably shouldn't have posted a comment in the bug... waits for the backlash [18:11] I have mentioned it in places, but it's more like I like to do it myself atleast FOR myself (:) [18:11] I'm going to wager the busy goes up drastically for another 18-32 years after that [18:11] nah [18:12] allee: sorry, what do you mean? [18:13] jdong: xev and therefore X11 translate keycode 232 to XF86MonBrightnessDown ... [18:13] Tm_T: Blogged? [18:13] Or microblogged it? ^_^ [18:13] DaSkreech: I don't do blog atm [18:13] and neither micro- [18:13] >_> [18:13] jdong: so your keycode 232 = XF86Stop is not used by X11 [18:13] will though [18:13] allee: well I am pressing the brightness down key [18:13] So you are making a microblogger for yourself with no usage of Microblogging? [18:13] allee: and due to the keymap it's being treated as the XF86Stop key :) [18:14] allee: now maybe on some keyboards keycode 232 IS the stop key, but that's not the case on this Macbook keyboard where it's a brightness key [18:14] I just filed bug 293213 [18:14] Launchpad bug 293213 in kubuntu-default-settings "k-d-s applies incorrect xmodmap that breaks macbook brightness keys" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/293213 [18:14] DaSkreech: no, I'm just been busy with other stuff so haven't microblogged for a month or so [18:14] ok Where do you have accounts? [18:15] jaiku, identica, will try twitter at some point [18:15] \o/ [18:15] same sequence for me [18:15] How come you aren't part of #kubuntu or #kde on Jaiku ? [18:16] because I'm not active yet, just starting my way there [18:17] What's your nick on Jaiku? [18:17] allee: what key(s) does guidance expect for brightness keys [18:17] tmt I think [18:18] ScottK, apachelogger: wrt bug 292403, it seems ubufox is the main culprit. What about a kubufox package and then the reccommends can be and either or for ubufox/kubufox and then we can sort this all out in Jaunty with a seed for kubufox. [18:18] Launchpad bug 292403 in update-manager "MASTER firefox 3.03 in kubuntu 8.10 requires gnome apps" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/292403 [18:19] rgreening: it would use the either or in order of the list [18:19] rgreening: I think that's generally sensible. I intend to discuss my suggestion with asac directly (i.e. not in the bug). I'll let you know how it turns out. [18:19] so ubufox|kubufox would still intall ubufox [18:19] unless kubufox is installed beforehand [18:20] apachelogger... seed kubufox as partof the desktop? [18:20] apachelogger: We'd need to drop it to suggests. [18:20] But if it's part of the desktop see/metapackage, it should work out fine. [18:20] ScottK: that is what I was pointing out earlier ;-) [18:20] anywho [18:20] sure... either way, we prob need this and we need ff dev to agree [18:20] ScottK: you might want to have knome join the discussion [18:20] jdong: I agree with your bug report. [18:20] \o/ [18:20] Knome [18:20] Love it [18:20] apachelogger: Who or what is knome? [18:21] ScottK: he was thinking about gettting kubufox and xubufox [18:21] ScottK: I'd be willing to help out in any solution. [18:21] ScottK: and discussions... [18:21] ScottK: xubuntu's lead marketing dude [18:21] jdong: I don't know that guidance used, but if there's a standardized XF86MonBrightness*, this is what guidance should use [18:21] Oh. [18:21] allee: now the weird thing is, with those modmaps removed Guidance still doesn't see my brightness keys [18:21] allee: it doesn't seem like Guidance uses XF86MonBrightness* [18:22] ScottK: he was thinking about getting a shared startpage source to avoid duplicated translations [18:22] allee: it uses Launch5 and Launch6 [18:22] WHAT? [18:22] apachelogger: I see. [18:23] allee: hmm it doesn't accept my brightness keys in shortcut settings either [18:23] it pretends it doesn't hear me [18:23] even though Xev sees the keys [18:24] jdong: strange [18:24] I feel like I should know myrtti [18:24] ScottK: apachelogger: actually, further looking, it requires apturl... which brings in all the deps. I wonder if are are alternatives to apturl for KDE that we can ask to put into that package to make this better. [18:27] ScottK: apachelogger: my gut tells me, we can make ubufox allow apturl or install-package to satisfy the dep in ubufox. That would fix the issue altogether (assuming install-package will work and we patch apturl to allow either. [18:27] rgreening: it would improve the issue, not fix it [18:28] firefox shouldn't recommend ubufox at all [18:28] I am not sure install-package expects the same kind of URLs though [18:32] me neither. just an option/hope for a possibility [18:32] :) [19:05] allee: brightnessUpAction.setShortcut(KShortcut(Qt.Key_Launch6)) [19:05] allee: in g-p-m.py, why do we hardcode Launch5 and Launch6 as brightness? [19:06] jdong: wild guess: historic? [19:07] jdong: mhhm, wasn't there something in /etc/acpi ... that mapped hardware events to X events. ????????? [19:07] allee: only if they are hardware events [19:08] allee: the macbook does not have any hardware mapped keys for brightness [19:08] they are standard software keyboard keys that must be handled by the UI :) [19:08] yes :) [19:08] allee: lol I see the "history" [19:08] allee: Qt.* doesn't have Key_*Brightness* [19:11] allee: so that's why we need launch5 and launch6 [19:14] allee: wow, QT doesn't seem to recognize these keys period [19:14] allee: keyboard shortcuts can't grab the key [19:14] allee: and forcing the keysym results in displayed as "Meta-(blocky thing)" [19:15] * jdong tries a bit harder [19:16] confirmed, Qt can't see the brightness keys. [19:23] what the hell [19:24] XF86Launch5 is actually QT:Key_Launch7 [19:24] XF86Launch6 is actually QT:Key_Launch8 [19:33] Do we have a complaint area for the 8.10 transistion? [19:33] It's bugs but bugs enmasse [19:38] DaSkreech: there is a bug to collect migration issues [19:39] JontheEchidna will know which one that is ;-) [19:39] * DaSkreech sits in front of JontheEchidna [19:39] * JontheEchidna integrates brain to launchpad [19:40] bug 220940 [19:40] Launchpad bug 220940 in kubuntu-kde4-meta "KDE 4 Migration Issues" [High,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/220940 [19:42] apachelogger: I can't get amarok to detect my ipod without compiling with libgpod-dev [19:43] libgpod-nogtk-dev makes it all not work, it seems [19:47] Alberto Milone or whoever made the update to nvidia settings, you rock my world!!

[20:01] Early december [20:07] me [20:08] rgreening: asac wants to discuss Firefox, etc, at UDS. [20:08] You want to be our expert? [20:09] sure. nominate me :) [20:14] Does anybody know much about pyqt? Specifically about QFileDialog and how to get it to close after choosing a file? [20:14] rgreening: You're nominated. [20:15] ScottK: just let me know what everyone wants discussed, captured, promoted, discussed. and I'll do it :) [20:16] You're in charge now. Go figure it out. [20:18] that's two times "discussed" :p [20:19] Arby: how do you call QFileDialog? [20:20] smarter: it's in that diff http://paste.ubuntu.com/66920/ [20:20] see line 26 on [20:21] well, when the users clicks open, it's closed [20:21] that's my understanding [20:21] except it doesn't [20:21] Oo [20:21] what happens exactly when open is clicked, nothing? [20:21] the filename is inserted into the associated Qlineedit correctly [20:22] but the dialog disappears then comes back [20:22] in a split second [20:22] if I click on the file 3 time the dialog closes [20:22] clearly I've stuffed up somewhere [20:22] but I've no idea where [20:23] hang on, let me make a screenshot [20:23] btw, you could use setFileMode(QFileDialog::ExistingFile) instead of checking for if path.isfile [20:24] (on the QFileDialog) [20:26] maybe the on_filechooser_... functions is called more than one time? [20:27] smarter: http://img171.imageshack.us/img171/3/scpkde2aa6.jpg [20:27] thanks for the setfilemode tip [20:28] I don't think the function should be called more than once but I'll check [20:28] that function didn't exist until I added it [20:29] but it's a slot, so maybe the signal is emitted more than one time [20:29] (wouldn't "Browse..." be a better pushbutton name than "..." for choosing a file?) [20:29] yes [20:29] I didn't name it [20:29] but I will get around to changing it [20:30] my wife always looks for browse to save files instead of ... [20:30] If I new how I'd get it to show a folder icon [20:30] *knew [20:33] well the button now says browse anyway :) [20:33] Arby: you want to show an icon on the button? [20:34] why not. I commonly associate an open folder icon with a button to open files [20:34] you need to use KPushButton for that [20:34] it can takes a KIcon and a QString [20:34] qpushbutton don't afaik [20:34] thanks for the hint [20:34] s/don't/can't/ [20:35] this app seems to use a combination of pykde and pyqt so maybe I'll do that [20:36] well, when you use KDE functions you must use Qt ones too ;) [20:38] yeah. I know. I'm very much a novice [20:38] this is the first non-toy app I've worked with :) [20:39] Arby: looking at s-c-p-k? [20:40] Riddell: yes [20:40] getting a bit lost [20:41] specifically bug 204763 [20:41] Launchpad bug 204763 in system-config-printer-kde "system-config-printer-kde does not accept PPD file supplied by user" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/204763 [20:41] which relates to this dialog http://img171.imageshack.us/img171/3/scpkde2aa6.jpg [20:42] there were really two problems. [20:42] this one http://paste.ubuntu.com/66357/ [20:42] which I got past. [20:42] and the fact that the browse file button wasn't connected to anything [20:43] so I started trying to connect it up and got stuck [20:43] which browse button? the "..." one? [20:43] yes [20:43] what widget is it? [20:44] the button is a QPushButton I think, let me check the ui file [20:44] yes it is [20:45] I've also relabelled the '...' button as 'Browse' if that's ok [20:46] in fact all my changes are here http://paste.ubuntu.com/66920/ [20:48] looks fine, that doesn't work? [20:49] no, the filename is entered in the lineedit but the file dialog doesn't close [20:49] unless I click the file 3 times [20:49] and I have no idea why [20:49] there's no console output [20:50] even if you click the ok button> [20:50] ]? [20:50] Is http://paste.ubuntu.com/66943 worth reporting in a bug (Konsole crash)? [20:50] if I click the file then the filename is entered in the lineedit. the dialog blinks and immediately reappears [20:51] even clicking cancel I have to click 3 times to get it to cancel [20:53] ScottK: looks juicy [20:53] Arby: oh, I know [20:54] Arby: it's pyqt trying to be clever [20:54] Arby: it's because your method name is the same as the slot name, so it calls it magically [20:54] Riddell: a-ha. [20:54] Arby: either rename the slot or try removing the connect line [20:54] ok [20:54] that confused the heck out of me when I came across it [20:54] I thought it was me being dumb [20:55] * Arby goes to try [21:00] Riddell: renaming the slot did it. [21:00] I'd never have figured that out [21:00] yeah, it's a misfeature in my opinion [21:01] but isn't enabling the forward button. [21:01] I need to find the right attribute of the line edit [21:01] for what? [21:01] qt:qlineedit [21:02] actually, shouldn't all the connect statements in http://paste.ubuntu.com/66920/ be removed? [21:02] smarter: I prefer to have them explicit than implicit [21:02] then every slot renamed [21:03] because the same thing must happens everywhere [21:03] SIGNAL("toggled(bool)"), self.on_rbtnNPFoomatic_toggled) I don't think that works magically because it takes an argument [21:03] oh yes, you need to add a python decorator for that to work [21:03] Riddell: yes, for checking if QLineEdit has text in it [21:03] but the name is still confusing [21:04] and it probably set ups an unneeded connect from it [21:04] *sets up [21:04] *setups :) [21:04] I tried QLineEdit.text() but that isn't working [21:05] Arby: foo.text().length() > 0 ? [21:05] let me try [21:07] JontheEchidna: Bug 293281 is all your now.

I get my BBC news in an email once a day. That's good enough for me. [21:22] not prefer home grown Fox news? :) [21:23] All news services have an angle, so I prefer to read a variety. [21:23] Although Fox is not generally on my list of credible sources to consider. [21:23] made a decision for tomorrow? [21:24] Yes. [21:24] smarter: Riddell: this is the code to enable the forward button and it isn't working [21:24] http://paste.ubuntu.com/66959/ [21:24] any suggestions [21:25] Arby: why is that bool() there? [21:25] Does the HP printer thing we install by default know printer status for non-HP printers? [21:25] no idea, that's where I found it [21:25] I didn't add it [21:25] Arby: separate out the stuff inside the first brackets and put it in a print str(..) [21:25] see what it's doing [21:27] Riddell: you mean the bit within the bool() ? [21:27] Arby: yep [21:29] ScottK: no I don't think so [21:29] ScottK: I don't like that HP app, vendor specific apps that take up space in the systray remind me too much of windaes [21:30] Riddell: Well the HP app is doing everything the one we ship does for me and doing it without getting lost about are print jobs done. [21:30] Of course my printer is HP ... [21:31] ScottK: it actually doesn't manage to connect to one of my HP printers, but yeah, printer-applet and s-c-p-k needs love [21:31] which, they'll get I'm confident [21:33] ScottK: so, who's getting your vote? [21:34] I'd like to vote for the 2000 edition of McCain, but he's not running. [21:34] he's changed? [21:34] there's a new version, McCain Vista [21:34] He was a lot more independent and sensible before. [21:35] I thought he was doing his best to separate himself from Bush this time? [21:35] I'm going to hold my nose and vote for him anyway though because I think he's better than Obama. [21:35] *sigh* [21:35] yuriy: I presume you don't get a vote? [21:35] Riddell: I do [21:35] well, not really, because I live in MA [21:35] oh, interesting [21:35] it's a nominal vote :P [21:35] Well he's been trying to "Be not like Bush, but keep the Bush faithful excited" and I think he's rather failed at both. [21:36] yuriy: Same for me living in MD. [21:36] ScottK: My dad feels the same way I think [21:36] he wants the 2000 McCain [21:36] but he doesn't really like either this time around [21:36] yuriy: you're an Obama man I take it? [21:36] I'm sort of betting that once the election crap is behind us that version will re-emerge. [21:36] Riddell: yeah. [21:37] somebody on planet linked to this today: http://donmilleris.com/2008/11/03/from-reagan-to-obama-a-brief-political-history/ great post [21:37] * ScottK has a brother living in MA who is also. [21:37] yuriy: I saw that and it's really orthogonal to my reasoning. [21:38] Personally I'm getting sick of the "If you're not for Obama you must be an idiot or a racist" discussions. [21:38] Forgot: or ignorant. [21:39] no, I can see why reasonable people would support McCain, especially pre-campaign McCain. of course then there's Palin.. [21:39] so when you tick the box on the voting paper does it say the name of the presidential candidate or the name of the electoral college people? [21:39] Riddell: http://paste.ubuntu.com/66970/ [21:39] It actually says both here. [21:39] and who are the electoral college people? nominated by the parties? [21:40] Riddell: it doesn't seem to detect the text being present [21:40] Arby: add a print statement for "not self.filechooserPPD.text().isEmpty" see what it's saying [21:41] Riddell: Something like that. I'm not actually sure. [21:41] Arby: also I'd add one for just self.filechooserPPD.text() [21:41] just doing that very thing [21:41] and that [21:42] you're getting into the debug mode of thinking :) [21:42] bah Obama, even if he is from Chicago! [21:43] though I will be at the Obama rally tomorrow :) [21:43] Meeting girls?? [21:43] hopefully! [21:43] oh no hang on [21:43] wearing my mccain/palin gear [21:44] the call is 'not isEmpty' so false == full [21:44] I have to go for a little while [21:44] I'll poke more later [21:44] nixternal: That's not likely to work. [21:44] at least I know I'm on the right track [21:44] * Riddell can't work out who nixternal means to vote for [21:45] He means to vote for McCain and try to pick up girls at the Obama rally. [21:46] Riddell: I am voting for Bob Barr Jr....if he gets 5% of the vote here in Illinois, then he can be on the ballot uncontested in the future, or the Liberatarian party can [21:46] my vote in Illinois doesn't really count anyways for who I really want to win, so I might as well attempt to make it count somewhat [21:47] yuriy: I'll confess the other thing I'm betting on is McCain's continued health. [21:47] * nixternal bets McCain and Palin steal it tomorrow and win by 2 states [21:47] haha, like a bad hand of poker :P [21:48] nixternal: all for voting for 3rd parties [21:48] gosh, that's all of you so far complaining about your vote not counting, why is there no campaign for a more sensible voting system? [21:48] * ScottK thinks either will be a significant improvement. [21:48] Riddell: because the democrats and republicans would chew your arms off for even trying :) [21:48] Riddell: There is periodically, but Consitutional amendments are, by design, very hard. [21:48] that's what happens when you have 2-party politics for so long [21:49] Actually most of the problem can be fixed at the state level. [21:49] IIRC only ME allows it's electoral votes to be split. [21:49] If more states did that, then there would be a lot less 'not counting'. [21:49] right, all the states could do that [21:49] ScottK: Fox can be under comedy [21:49] ;-) [21:49] there's that, and also I think it would help if more candidates that are considered fringe in their parties ran as independents [21:50] DaSkreech: that upload settings to bzr branch application was only ever a two hour proof of concept, I never intended for it to go further [21:51] right finished showing the gf how add users from the commandline :) [21:51] ScottK: Illinois won't do that because Chicago is Democrat and the rest of teh state is Republican...Chicago doesn't want to lose the hold it has on the rest of the state [21:51] back to work [21:51] Sounds like PA [21:51] boo [21:51] nixternal: This is similarly true in most states. [21:51] Riddell: ok [21:52] wasabi mr da freezey :) [21:52] Nada, you? [21:52] I'm just celebrating the last day of my country as I know it [21:52] Arby: you taught her adduser?

[21:53] crimsun: Now we are going back the other way :) [21:53] bddebian: hahaha, celebrate tonight come on! [21:53] Riddell: Dunno. I'd like to vote for Bob Barr but it's a throw away vote unfortunately [21:54] meh, I'm writing in mickey mouse [21:54] bddebian: no it isn't...get the 5% so the liberatarian's can get their uncontested ballot space [21:54] crimsun: That's copyright infringement [21:54] bddebian: Well you live in a state that happens to have at least some potential to be competitive. [21:54] crimsun: haha, I used to write mickey mouse all of the time [21:54] bddebian: what state are you in/ [21:54] ya, McCain/Palin will win PA [21:54] Who started that?

[21:55] you are the only one, because even the libs are saying they are more than likely going to lose it [21:55] McCain is behind there, but there's some potential for it to be gloxe. [21:55] urgh [21:55] gloxe/close [21:55] I think Our Lord and Savior Obama will win and I'll be moving the new country of Texas ;-P [21:55] don't believe the polls [21:56] bddebian: hahahahhaha [21:56] come here to Chicago, where you can see just how well obama has done to Cook County by placing the people he did a few years back [21:56] Of course McCain is headed down the socialism train too, just slower [21:56] 10% sales tax [21:56] the highest property taxes in teh US [21:56] bddebian: sounds like you should join "the #kubuntu-devel campaign for single transferable vote in the US" [21:56] the highest amount of poverty per square mile now [21:56] we totalyl rock here with the dems in charge [21:56] Haiti? [21:56] nixternal: I grew up in IL. My folks still live there. Chicago is a disaster. :( [21:57] bddebian: where at in IL? [21:57] hillbilly land? [21:57] south of 80? :P [21:57] nixternal: My mom is in Bloomington. My dad is still on the farm in between Bloomington and Peoria [21:57] yup, south of 80 [21:57] nixternal: unfortunately no USA political party will do much to change that [21:58] change occurs on an individual level [21:58] we should create a channel #kubuntu-devel-politics :D [21:58] That's called #debian-devel ;-P [21:58] * nixternal goes back to work before the world blows up [21:58] hahaha [21:58] bddebian: lol [21:58] nixternal: Why work? When Obama is elected we won't need jobs. The gubmint will do everything for us. [21:59] nixternal: are you suggesting 10% sales tax is high? [21:59] bddebian: why? wouldn't you still work? [21:59] Hell yes when Nevada and Texas are at 0% :) [21:59] lol, ya 10% is insane [21:59] I think this is a different definition of the word "socialism" than that to which I have been used [22:00] yuriy: Why work when I can get my free welfare check^ err "tax credit" [22:00] Riddell: is this the first you've heard of this? [22:00] yuriy: minimum VAT allowed in EU is 15% [22:00] 19,6% here in France :P [22:01] Gimme a freakin' flat tax damnit! :) [22:01] Riddell: I know, vaguely. I meant about how americans think any non-negligible tax is "socialism" [22:01] * jussi01 lives in a "socialist" country (well I guess you could call it that) and it works pretty well... we do have the largest mobile phone manufacturer in the world... [22:01] jussi01: not worried that your country is overdependant on one company? [22:01] I wonder what % of Finlandish GDP Nokia makes up [22:01] yuriy: No tax isn't socialism per se. [22:02] bddebian: I ain't gonna clean up your poop no matter who gets elected! [22:02] heh [22:02] Riddell: not overly, because we have a fantastic _renewable_ natural resource to fall back on when times are hard [22:02] jussi01: you do? snow power? [22:02] lapland tourism? [22:03] Riddell: the wood/paper industry [22:03] jussi01: that's renewable? O_o [22:03] that's hardly unique, plenty countries can compete with that [22:03] but who can compete with chilled monkey brains? [22:03] Egypt! [22:03] Arby: actually, you have to use toPlainText().isEmpty() instead of text() which is deprecated [22:04] jussi01: Sounds like Canada, but without the actual tech industry (Nokia). [22:04] Riddell: I didnt say people couldnt compete, but the fact is the policies here make sure it is renewable and remains that way. [22:04] smarter: so you mean foo.toPlainText().isEmpty() ? [22:04] yes [22:04] Not too mention we have one of the best education systems in the world... [22:04] jussi01: interesting. linky about these policies? [22:05] yuriy: moment please [22:05] jussi01: I think such things work generally better in smaller more economically homogenous countries. [22:05] Yeah, let's send them about 25,000,000 "immigrants" :) [22:06] ScottK: agree on that [22:06] Actually you can look at the insurance system in MA as an example of something similar. [22:07] It'd never work nationally, but there it's good. [22:07] smarter: toPlainText() is an attribute error ? [22:08] strange [22:09] oh, it's toPlainText in PyQt [22:09] nothing about toPlainText() in http://doc.trolltech.com/4.4/qlineedit.html [22:10] oh forget that [22:10] and http://doc.trolltech.com/4.4/qlineedit.html#text-prop doesn't say anything about being deprecated [22:10] * smarter was looking at the wrong doc ^^' [22:10] Hmm, I think I'll write in Condoleeza Rice [22:10] it's qtextedit text() which is deprecated [22:10] Arby: sorry :P [22:10] smarter: no problem :) [22:11] * smarter is obviously tired [22:11] 'night guys [22:12] yuriy: I cant find the policies proper, I suspect they are in finnish, but this article gives some idea on the policies and how finns feel about the forrests, though it is hardly a policy article: ftp://ftp.fao.org/docrep/fao/005/y9882e/y9882e02.pdf [22:14] bddebian: when you say socialism, are you thinking of communism or just a high tax government? [22:14] neither of which is socialism... [22:15] True. [22:15] yuriy: you're thinking of an anarchistic system? [22:15] Finland is a relatively large country at 5 million? :) [22:15] But it does appear that the amount of 'tax cut' people will get under Obama's plan is more than the total tax they currently pay. [22:16] a good size for a country that :) [22:16] bddebian: yes, in land area, for europe it is large... [22:16] no.. communism can be anarchistic, socialism is defined as everything is run by the government, isn't it? I'm actually a bit fuzzy on the correct definitions, not having read the literature, but I feel like I have an idea of what it's not [22:16] Riddell: Really it's probably more Marxist if we want to get specific. I find all the "fairness" stuff to be garbage. [22:16] Which isn't exactly Socialist, but some people are understandably grumpy about it. [22:17] ScottK: People who don't pay taxes will be getting a "tax cut" as I understand it. [22:17] Riddell: currently I have http://paste.ubuntu.com/66983/ [22:17] yuriy: Right, but Communism has never actually happened. The "Communists" ran "Socialist" governments until the glorious day some time in the future when true "Communism" would arrived. [22:18] Riddell: but the print occurs as soon as I click the provide PPD file radio button [22:18] bddebian: Isn't that what I said? [22:18] Arby: and is it empty? [22:18] Riddell: at that point yes [22:18] * ScottK wonders off. [22:18] I think the check is happening before I've entered the filename [22:18] ScottK: Yeah, sorry misread [22:19] so I think I need to call the 'enable forward button' after the file has been selected [22:19] Riddell: does that sound sane or am I on the wrong track [22:19] that seems sensible [22:19] right, good, now how to do that [22:20] Arby: just call the method at the end of the browse_clicked() method [22:20] hehe, its so funny to see predictions 5 years ago of what has just happened... http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/business/3026597.stm [22:20] Riddell: oh it really is that simple [22:20] good [22:21] heya [22:21] hi danimo, we're talking politics tonight :) [22:22] heh [22:22] Still up there with being the most competitive, 6th most this year :D http://www.investinfinland.fi/news/2008/en_GB/WEF_08/ [22:22] Riddell: What a coincidence, I was about to complain about bits I found when upgrading to intrepid [22:22] danimo: go for it [22:23] Riddell: you know how that goes whenever I update distros, I prefer to whine to the devels, not the world (via planet) [22:23] jussi01: Did anyone of us say we didn't like Finland or something? :) [22:23] amarok2 beta3 packages published :D [22:23] Riddell: first of all: is there something in the works to remedy #278471 [22:23] bddebian: no, I just love my adopted country :D [22:23] ? [22:23] jussi01: Ah, OK :) Where did you move from? [22:23] bddebian: Im an Aussie :D [22:24] Ah, I was considering running away to Australia until recently :) [22:24] Riddell: a friend of mine said randr-adjustment (e.g. when connecting a projector) worked fine for him on gnome, so I think there should be a better fix than disabling the xrandr change polling [22:24] bddebian: Im going there next week :D [22:24] bug 278471 [22:24] Launchpad bug 278471 in meta-kde "Screen flickers with KDE4" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/278471 [22:25] Riddell: also, kmail shows none of my (dimap) accounts [22:25] hmm, X, not my error [22:25] jussi01: Well don't try to use the Internet.. ;-P [22:25] not my area I mean [22:25] Riddell: that got it thanks. [22:25] Riddell: whoms? [22:25] bddebian: hehe [22:25] on to the next error [22:26] Riddell: and when trying to connect with kopete, connecting any of my jabber accounts crashes kopete [22:26] bddebian: we have gorgeous internet here, 2/2 comes with the house free, for 19.90 euro per month I can update to 100/10... [22:26] Riddell: and as for politics: obama will win, that's rather boring [22:27] Riddell: (assuming that's what's been debated) [22:27] jussi01: I was kidding. I was talking about the recent blocking of sites in Australia [22:27] danimo: It's not boring, it's frightening [22:27] bddebian: I didnt know about that [22:27] danimo: jabber crashes here as well on first login - but works after restarting [22:28] Nightrose: "eine vertrauensbildende maßnahme" :) [22:28] hehe [22:28] danimo: this is what you are hoping not to do? http://blog.nixternal.com/2008.10.22/kubuntu-intrepid-dual-monitor-blinking/ [22:28] Riddell: the funny thing is: I don't have a dual monitor setup [22:28] Riddell: just a build in LCD with an optional external VGA output [22:29] also, who had the idea to make "text alongside icons" option default? [22:29] jussi01: http://www.theage.com.au/articles/2008/10/27/1224955916155.html [22:29] Nightrose: it crashes always [22:29] danimo: Nuno [22:29] bddebian: it can't get worse than it is, so I welcome any change [22:29] Riddell: arghs [22:30] heh, only the party will change, the results will stay the same :P [22:30] we should have remove those stupid options in KDE years ago [22:30] danimo: Oh yes it can. [22:30] * danimo doesn't see how [22:31] and replaced it with a selective "text for this important option" flag for specific actions in xmlgui [22:31] having text for all options is just silly [22:31] bddebian: oh bleh... [22:32] launch kopete for an example [22:34] so Riddell, any idea when we will have flash in webkitkde? jaunty already? [22:34] jussi01: Qt 4.5 I believe, which should be in jaunty [22:34] jussi01: Cool yo uare on Jaiku as well :) [22:35] DaSkreech: yeps :D [22:36] Can somebody test the amarok 2 beta3 packages? http://www.kubuntu.org/node/54 [22:36] I got a report of breakage but I can't reproduce [22:39] Czessi__: ping? [22:42] Riddell: any hints about kmail? [22:42] JontheEchidna: don't you want to metnion intrepid packages? [22:43] JontheEchidna: thx for the work btw :) [22:43] danimo: it's not something I've heard of, what happens when you add back the accounts? [22:43] JontheEchidna: working well here, what's to test? [22:43] Riddell: I think I have a fix for bug 204763 [22:44] http://paste.ubuntu.com/66999/ [22:44] Launchpad bug 204763 in system-config-printer-kde "system-config-printer-kde does not accept PPD file supplied by user" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/204763 [22:44] Riddell: does that ^^ diff look reasonable to you? [22:47] Arby: yes (without testing it myself) [22:47] Arby: want me to test and apply to KDE SVN? [22:48] Riddell: that would be nice [22:48] Riddell: unless you want to wait until I've looked at some of the other bugs [22:48] then do it all at once [22:50] Arby: atomic commits are best [22:50] Arby: after a couple more of these you can just ask for an svn account [22:51] Riddell: OK then please commit when you have time [22:52] that'll do for one night I think [22:53] Arby: when I click Forward after selecting a file it doesn't actually go forward [22:53] Riddell: if there are any problems let me know tomorrow [22:53] Riddell: will look into it [22:53] oh [22:53] it did for me [22:53] let me look again [22:53] Arby: I'm not selecting a ppd file, is there some validation happening? [22:54] ah that'll be it [22:54] not enough obviously [22:54] I'll look at it gain tomorrow [22:54] *again [22:54] I get a backtrace too http://paste.ubuntu.com/67002/ [22:55] Arby: whatever my issue is I don't think it's due to your patch so I'll commit [22:55] Arby: there's bugs on bugs.kde.org too if you're wanting to look for more :) [22:55] Riddell: a symbol mismatch on startup [22:55] if there is a kde 3.5.11 will it be built for hardy? [22:55] Riddell: I'll fix ours first :) [22:56] I hit a couple while doing this one [22:56] * JontheEchidna put a story on kubuntu.org but I couldnt' get the picture to show up :( [22:56] plus there's about 20 in LP [22:56] Riddell: thanks for all the help [22:56] oh, Kubuntu 8.10 is not the Hardy Heron [22:59] Riddell: anything on the plate for today that can be fired at me? [23:02] * a|wen votes for a kde 3.5.11 version of kdepim [23:02] rgreening: fix danimo's problems? :) [23:02] Riddell: I'm a programmer not a pychologist [23:03] ba-dum-bum [23:03] :) [23:03] rgreening: able to test jabber in kopete? [23:03] sure. [23:03] I have Jabber acct and use kopete [23:03] whats the issue [23:05] I've noticed jabber dying of late. Is that the issue? I had assumed it was an issue at the other end. [23:05] Riddell: ^^ [23:06] rgreening: just if it crashes when connecting [23:07] claydoh: I built the 3.5.10 packages and I've since upgraded to Intrepid, so it'd depend on a volunteer to do the work. [23:09] Riddell: so is the "not connecting to jabber" or kopete having some sort of crash as a result of not connecting? And is there a bug report? [23:09] ScottK: thanks [23:10] rgreening: 22:26 < danimo> Riddell: and when trying to connect with kopete, connecting any of my jabber accounts crashes kopete [23:10] ScottK: if a new 3.5.11 comes around i'm willing to give it a shot... but the kde svn 3.5 branch seems pretty stall atm [23:10] rgreening: no bug report that I know of [23:11] libplasma is now part of kdelibs [23:12] yay [23:12] Binary compat for now on too. Bonus! [23:13] awooga [23:13] danimo: regarding your Kopete issue, can you file a bug and poke me with the report? I'll look into it for you. I have jabber but no kopete crash (though jabber isn't connecting at the moment). [23:13] JontheEchidna: do you mean libphonon? [23:14] nope, libplasma [23:14] where was it before [23:14] disneyland? :) [23:15] kdebase-workspace [23:15] ah [23:15] ok, makes way more sense [23:15] ya, they weren't going to make it part of kdelibs because it was so infantile when it was incepted [23:15] danimo: do you have libqca2-plugin-ossl installed? [23:16] what do we do about fixing in jaunty before fixing in intrepid? [23:17] is jaunty ready for that? [23:18] a|wen: not open yet [23:18] pitti will copy SRUs by hand to jaunty [23:19] Riddell: okay, thx [23:24] * Riddell snoozes [23:25] nite Riddell: [23:27] JontheEchidna: set your story to Raw HTML, that shows the image. also added a friendly URL Path [23:27] JontheEchidna: thanks for taking care of Amarok [23:27] yw [23:29] seele: [23:30] http://wadejolson.wordpress.com/2008/11/03/camp-kde-2009-cfp-clarification/ [23:30] bah [23:30] seele: http://img46.imageshack.us/img46/1725/nineinchfailsur6.jpg [23:34] * JontheEchidna needs to smallen up the amarok pic [23:35] Tm_T: Myrtti isn't your sister?
