_neversfeldeclaydoh: some users started a translation of my german how to00:49
_neversfeldeI'll post you the link, once there is enough translated00:50
_neversfelden8 :)00:50
claydohcool is it based on the client-core concept?00:50
_neversfeldeyes00:50
claydohor just the standalone mode00:50
_neversfeldeit is client core and I think I can help to improve an english version00:51
claydohgood, though  I am working on a simple one for the standalone mode00:51
_neversfeldeclaydoh: did you publish it somewhere?00:51
claydohfor those of us easily confused or not geeky enough :)00:51
_neversfeldehehe00:51
claydohno, still typing out a rough text00:52
claydohand have a bunch of screenshots00:52
claydoh\00:52
claydohwould be done, but went to newegg and went shopping :)00:52
_neversfeldeif I can help you, tell me00:52
claydohthen had to cook dinner00:52
claydohand I am still sick, and the wife is ill too :(00:53
claydohso even typing is not fun00:53

claydohwow openoffice locks up the desktop in Jaunty01:28
claydohand apparently in kde4.2 ppa in intrepid01:28
* ScottK hugs his kde 4.1.4....01:54
claydoh4.2 rawks02:00
claydohmaybe we should remove openoffice.org-kde then?02:00
claydohand just how far along is Kooffice :O)02:01
claydohoops koffice02:01
ScottKopenoffice.org-kde is still KDE3.02:03
ScottKSo yeah ....02:03
claydohdoes it actually use kde3, or is it just a 'theme'? I was never clear on that02:10
claydoh"This package contains the KDE plugin for drawing OOo's widgets with KDE/Qt, a KDEish File Picker when running under KDE"02:12
claydohahh02:12
claydohcan't draw widgets then02:12
ScottKI haven't looked but there's apparently a non-working KDE4 port.02:13
claydohI found that if you just enable oo.o's native file picker, you can keep the openoffice.org-kde package, and its better looks :)03:15
ScottKIf someone were to package http://blog.chatonka.com/2009/01/more-on-rtm-plasmoid/ I'd promise to review it.03:23
claydohI know samrog, who has a ppa opf plasmoid, he'll probably do it :)03:24
claydohok what exactly is rtm? I don't think i get it03:26
* claydoh needs to learn cmake so he can use that for building his kmymoney2 packages03:27
* claydoh also is eager for kmm2's devs to port to kde4 03:28
ScottKRemember the milk.03:28
ScottKIt's a plasmoid to help you keep track of what you have to do.03:29
ScottKI could use that.03:29
claydohahh03:30
claydohI was thinking it was more complex than that03:30
claydohdunno why03:30
claydohhttps://edge.launchpad.net/~samrog131/+archive/ppa03:31
claydohhe's a plasmoid-ho :)03:31

hungera|wen: I guess I need to wait then:-(10:45
hungerIf only jaunty wasn't that broken... then I could just upgrade to that:-)10:46
a|wenhunger: if you want, you can add -proposed to your sources.list and help test that the packages are good10:46
hungera|wen: I don't want to do that.10:47
hungera|wen: I am running jaunty as a thing to report bugs against... but I do need one computer that actually works mostly.10:47
a|wenhunger: i can fully understand that ... always have a computer kept somewhat clean10:48
hungera|wen: I wouldn't mind testing the kde packages, but there is a new kernel and stuff in -proposed that I do not want to test.10:49
a|wenhunger: yeah; it is not that easy just upgrading the kde-packages and not the rest from -proposed10:51
hungerHmmm... installing ubuntu-desktop without effecting my kde installation no longer seems possible:-(10:52
hungerubuntu-desktop depends on all the stuff kubuntu-desktop only recommends and that I do not like:-)10:53

apacheloggerif I removed the api stuff properly it should also build a lot faster11:55
Arbyapachelogger: did you see my ping about a couple of packages last night?11:56
apacheloggernope11:56
Arby <Arby> apachelogger: ping?11:56
apacheloggerArby: yes11:56
Arby[21:51] <Arby> looking at arts stuff libsdl1.2debian-arts  looks pretty useless without arts11:56
Arby[21:51] <Arby> should it be marked for removal from the archive?11:56
Arby[21:52] <Arby> likewise liballegro4.2-plugin-arts11:56
apacheloggerthrow them away11:56
Arbyok I can mark it on the wiki but who do I need to ask to do it?11:56
apacheloggerthey only contain arts support, so it's save to drop them11:56
Arbyyou?11:56
apacheloggerArby: you need to file a package removal request (explained somewhere in the wiki)11:57
apacheloggerthen find a sponsor who accepts the request and subscribes the archive admins11:57
apacheloggerArby: also ... for thos packages and rdeps need to be resolved as well11:57
* Arby starts digging in wiki11:57
apacheloggerI think libsdl for example got a metapackage for audio backends IIRC11:58
gmasuccihello to everybody, my name is Giovanni Masucci and I'd like to help in the testing process to jaunty, nice to meet you all :)12:02
freeflyinggmasucci: welcome you here :)12:04
gmasucciThank you freeflying. :) I've just installed kubuntu jaunty and I've found an issue with libsoprano-dev and soprano-daemon packages. Appearently there is a file , org.soprano.Model.xml, that is in both packages and causes a conflict that makes apt eat children. :) If you are already aware of this please ignore my message :)12:06
freeflyinggmasucci: did you upgrade to the latest?12:07
gmasucciyes12:08
freeflyinggmasucci: I couldn't reproduce it here now :)12:09
freeflyinggmasucci: I did maybe 1 day ago :)12:10
xerosisthe latest libsoprano-dev replaces soprano-daemon so it shouldn't be a problem now12:10
gmasucciglad to hear, maybe the mirror has to update itself12:10
jussi01sigh...13:01
jussi01I have no idea on how to set up that calender folder crap in kontact. should we not have a pre set up one done already? (or is that a bug in the experimental packages and fixed in jaunty)13:03
* jussi01 prods the ninjas13:03
jussi01great. lots of crashes with that. :/13:05
Arbyapachelogger: wrt removal of libsdl1.2debian-arts13:21
Arbyhttps://wiki.kubuntu.org/UbuntuDevelopment/PackageArchive?highlight=(request)|(package)|(removal)#Removing%20Packages13:21
Arby^^ implies that we should remove both source and binaries13:21
Arbyhowever the source is libsdl1.213:21
Arbywhich is also the source for a number of libsdl1.2-foo packages13:22
Arbyso is the correct solution actually to modify the source package to not build the -arts binary?13:22
Arbysince we can't really remove the source package13:22
Arbyah, it seems all the -foo packages are rdepends of libsdl1.2debian-arts so they're going to break anyway13:25
Arbygetting a little lost here. Is arts at a lower level than oss, esd, alsa etc?13:26
a|wenArby: arts is higher than those, as far as i know ... is those depends written explicitly in debian/control or made up from {$foo} variables?13:32
apacheloggerArby: arts is same level as esd13:33
Arbya|wen: those are what gets spat out by a combination of apt-cache show and apt-cache rdepends13:33
apacheloggersame applies for pulseaudio I guess13:33
apacheloggerthey are all 3 sound servers, which just try to solve the multiple output source mixing problem and a the same time provide a simpler approach than alsa13:34
a|wenArby: rebuilding without build-depends on arts should remove the automagically generated depends (if that is what they are)13:34
apacheloggerArby: correct solution for sdl would be build the source package without arts support ... drop all references to the package ... and change the depends of all other packages that depend on it to not depend on it13:35
apacheloggeror recommend or suggest13:35
apacheloggerthough the latter is rather low priority13:35
Arbyok well that saves me filing a removal request then, which is what brought all this about13:36
ghostcubehi ScottK13:36
ghostcubei still get this kmix crash at login just saying kmix crashed for unknown reason13:37
ghostcubestartet in 4.1.413:37
ghostcubebut kmix works fine if kde is fully loaded13:37
a|wenghostcube: does it do the same if you try to log in (test it a few times) with a new user? could be that kmix got saved as part of your session with some unfortunate values13:43
ghostcubea|wen, can i remove the saved session or would start blank session do the same ?13:43
ghostcubei just have one user13:44
ghostcube:D13:44
a|wenstart blank session should be the same13:44
a|wenghostcube: or if you are able to get a backtrace by having the -dbg packages installed, that would be good as well13:44
ghostcubei have them installed but kcrash tells me cant get useful bt13:45
ghostcube:|13:45
Notch-1hi, on a persistent/live on usb pen, how can i add more persistent space? since the pen is formatted with fat32 i can't create persistent file bigger than 4 gb...13:46
Notch-1is there a simple way to add more persistence files?13:47
a|wenghostcube: you have the kdemultimedia-dbg installed, right?13:48
ghostcubea|wen, moment have to look if this one is there right now13:49
ghostcubenope but why is it bringing juk with it lol13:52
a|wenghostcube: the -dbg packages (of kde) are meta-debug-packages, so they sadly have to bring in a lot of cruft13:53
ghostcubeoh ok :) just wondered why juk is inside the dbg packages13:53
ghostcubeok if dled and installed i will tell u the output after relogin13:53
a|wenghostcube: thx13:55
ghostcubenp13:55
Arbyapachelogger: I assume I need to remove all references to arts from debian rules as well?13:59

Arbyapachelogger: does this look like a decent starting point http://paste.ubuntu.com/109385/14:05
apacheloggera|wen: when you start firefox from a shell without arguments ... does it dispatch?14:05
Arbysave me at least one failed build :)14:06
apacheloggerArby:     - dropped Replaces/Conflicts libsdl1.2debian-arts for14:06
apachelogger      libsdl1.2debian-alsa, -oss, -esd, -nas, -pulseaudio14:06
apacheloggerthat ought to stay14:06
Arbyoh ok14:07
apacheloggerArby: I recommend you ask ./configure --help if there is anything you have to do to ensure the build will not break without arts14:07
a|wenapachelogger: it dispatch both w/o any arguments, and while giving it an url14:07
apacheloggera|wen: when no prior firefox window is running?14:08
a|wenapachelogger: no, it will only dispatch if another window is running14:09
apacheloggera|wen: but with kfmclient it doesn't even do with an open instance?14:12
a|wenapachelogger: nope, exactly ...14:13
Arbyapachelogger: if ./configure --help says14:14

apacheloggera|wen: close all firefox ... strace kfmclient openURL > ~/kfmclient.1.strace 2>&1 ... gzip that file ... send to apachelogger@ubuntu.com14:16

apacheloggeractually14:16
apacheloggerI think you might want to pass a URL with that ;-)14:16
a|wenghostcube: is that what you get?14:17
ghostcubeyes14:17
a|wenghostcube: you might want to try qt-x11-free-dbg as well14:19

apacheloggerhm14:20
apacheloggerI think my music hd is reaching it's live time span14:20
apacheloggermaking incredibly intersting noise14:20
apacheloggertime for a new pc \o/14:21
Arbyactually IIUC are --enable-arts/--enable-arts-shared and --disable-audio-arts sort of mutually exclusive14:22
Arbydebian/rules currently has --enable-arts-shared=no and --disable-audio-arts both set14:23
a|wenapachelogger: is kfmclient supposed to dispatch if the underlying program (eg. firefox) don't do it by itself?14:23
Arbywhich means this package already has arts disabled unless I've misunderstood14:23
apacheloggera|wen: I am not sure ... (almost) all KDE apps dispatch by default14:24
a|wenapachelogger: okay ... it doesn't dispatch if firefox is not running in any case14:24
apacheloggera|wen: I am not sure if kfmclient itself doesn't get dispatched by $invokingapp14:26
apacheloggerso worst case might be ending up with some kfmclient processes14:26
ghostcubehmm a|wen not better14:27
ghostcubesame output so far :)14:28
apacheloggera|wen: open some about $application dialogs and click the website URL... that should invoke kfmclient... then look how many kfmclients you have14:28
ghostcubebrb14:31
a|wenapachelogger: 2 strace output and 1 valgrind on the way to your inbox ... i'll test the about-box links14:32
apacheloggerk, thx14:32
a|wenapachelogger: i have no kfmclient processes running in w/ w/o a firefox window open when clicking14:34
a|wenapachelogger: can you take a look at the backtrace from ghostcube http://pastie.org/370170 ... any idea what crashes, or which -dbg to install?14:36
apacheloggera|wen: doesn't that make the bug invalid?14:40
apacheloggerif they want apps to dispatch from a shell they ought to attach a &14:40
apacheloggerghostcube: that crash happens when?14:41

ghostcubehmm not a big thing if you need compiz15:13
ghostcubeseems to ba an i dont like u i leave u :D15:13
ghostcubeplasma isnt crashing anymore now its again kwin hmm with the pastie i did before15:14
ghostcubei think without compiz this all wont happen15:15
ghostcubeso the packages work so far for normal kde4 users i would say15:16
ghostcubethe only thing need to be solved is the kmenu classic and its sorting but i told this already in #plasma this su a bit15:16
a|wenghostcube: that initial backtrace isn't worth much it seams; could be anything (and we don't know if it is kde or compiz that does it wrong)15:18

seeleapachelogger: breadcrumbs are a navigation mechanism, it's not limited for file browsers16:29
=== Riddell changed the topic of #kubuntu-devel to: Kubuntu: Aboon them aa ye tak yer place | Next Kubuntu Meeting: Wednesday 28 January 2009 22:00UTC | Alpha-3 Released | Specs! http://wiki.kubuntu.org/KubuntuJauntySpecs
apacheloggeryep, but do I need breadcrums for 2-3 levels?16:30
seelewhen your other navigation controls suck? yes16:30
apacheloggerhow does it suck?16:30
apacheloggerit's not perfect16:31
apacheloggerbut it suffice IMO16:31
seelesmall target area? not labelled?16:31
seelesuffice means there is room for improvment16:31
apacheloggerbreadcrum is no improvement, it's a workaround16:32
apacheloggerthe concept would still be flawed16:32
apacheloggeryou just add another concept on top of it16:32
seelesure.. but there is no other option right now16:32
seeleso we just let it sit broken for the next two years while raptor materializes out of vapor?16:33
apacheloggereventually people learn to use search withint eh two years and we can drop that whole menu tree all along16:33
seelesearch is not a replacement for browsing. it is a completely different search strategy16:34
seeleyou have to know what you are looking for in order to search and you can't explore what you don't know16:34
apacheloggeryou don't browse in kickoff16:34
apacheloggeryou enter a subcategory and leave it16:34
seeleyou dont know what is in that subcategory until you look in it.  if youre wrong you have to go to a new subcategory16:35
apacheloggerwhen you are exploring16:35
seelethat search behavior is called browsing16:35
* apachelogger did never see anyone use google's web directory rather than the search16:36
seelebecause google is a search engine so no one thinks to go to a search engine to browse their directory :P16:36
apacheloggerno, they use the searchbar16:37
seelebecause google is a search engine and so people go to google to search16:37
apacheloggerso, what is wrong with making them use kickoff as search?16:38
apacheloggerbecause for the better part it is exactly that16:38
seelekrunner is kickoff without the menus to browse16:39
seelekickoff provides high level information for users to be able to find more detailed information (the exact application) without overwhelming them with all of the information at once16:39
seeleand so people make choices based on smaller and smaller granularity information until they can find the piece of information they want16:40
apacheloggeryou won't go looking for k3b in internet16:40
seeleno.. but what about konqueror when people know it as both a web browser and file manager?16:40
seeleor kmail? is it in internet or office?16:40
seelethe goal is to create an organization so no one makes mistakes16:41
apacheloggersearch16:41
seeleso you know where you are going from the beginning16:41
apacheloggeryeah, to the search :P16:41
seelenot everyone searches!16:41
apacheloggerthat is the problem!16:41
seeleor think they know enough information to search16:41
seeleor know what is available to search on16:41
apacheloggerthen the search is flawed16:41
* seele slaps her face16:41
apacheloggerseriously ... think about it16:42
apacheloggerfi you are not really browsing16:42
apacheloggeras in: looking for new cool apps you might have never seen16:42
apacheloggeryou will always know something related to that application16:42
ghostcubemaybe it is something between the menings of to browse the folder and to search the item that is leading to this discussionoO16:42
apacheloggerghostcube: folders got nothing to do with it... you can also browse your menu16:43
apacheloggerthe problem is you can also search your menu16:43
apacheloggerwhich is highly inefficient16:43
ghostcubeyeah thats what i meant16:43
seelenow that youve had this great insight maybe you should go rewrite all the literature on information seeking behavior16:43
seeleapparently you know something that the IA industry does not16:44
* apachelogger notes that he pissed-off seele enough and goes back to reviewing :P16:44
ghostcubei didnt get the problem guys lol16:50

ghostcubeyep17:58
ghostcubeScottK, but all the other probs are gone its just a strange bug with plasma  workspace siwtcher18:04
ghostcubeehm a question for the garbage bug18:04
ghostcubeis it planned to be in SRU now ?18:04
ghostcubethis is driving me nuts :D18:04
ScottKAt a guess if we rebuild compiz against 4.1.4 it would probably clear up.18:04
ScottKWhat garbage bug?18:04
ghostcubeScottK, i will build it against kde4.1.4 tomorrow18:05
ghostcube i tell u then ok18:05
ScottKOK.  Let me know.18:05
ScottKThanks.18:05
ghostcubeno prob i need to git pull new master so i must do this :)18:05

tsdgeoshi guys, i've installed the qt4 dbg package but my backtraces still don't file the symbols, afair i did not have to tell gdb anything to find those .debug files, but maybe this has changed?20:39

jarekhI found it here: http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/playground/multimedia/kdetv/21:41
