calcjono: may be related to the cairo library change00:11
jonocalc, are you aware of the bug?00:11
calcjono: if you don't have your system set to subpixel hinting does it look properly?00:12
calcjono: i am aware of a bug with hinting with subpixel yes, cairo made a backwards incompatible change that has made OOo look a bit odd when font hinting is set to subpixel00:12
calcjono: i'm not certain if it is the same bug you are seeing though00:13
jonocalc, yeah it looks better when I am not using subpixel smoothing00:14
jonocalc, is there a fix for this?00:14
calcfonts look fine (i think) to me with subpixel full hinting, so i am not sure which subpixel mode is messed up with the new cairo00:14
calcjono: not that i know of :(00:14
jonooh that sucks00:14
calci think i asked about a fix for this before, but i will email the developer list again to see if anyone has fixed it independently (eg in suse private branch or fedora)00:15
jonocool :)00:15
calcsometimes fixes are hidden unintentionally, heh00:15
jonohaha00:16
jonoindeed :)00:16
jonocalc, does this build have the funky new anti aliasing in it, or is that 3.1?00:16
calcnew anti aliasing? i'm not sure i know what you are talking about :)00:17
calcthe builds for a while now (i think intrepid too) have had cairo support for anti aliasing which was broken with cairo 1.7.5 (iirc)00:17
jonocalc, shapes in OOo are going to be anti aliased00:17
calcah ok, probably in 3.1 if you read about recently, 3.1 is due out at the end of march if it makes it on time00:18
jonoI think it wasnt turned on by default00:18
jonocool00:18
calc3.1 won't be in official ubuntu until 9.10 but i should have some ppa debs shortly after release00:18
calcso it looks like i never asked on the developer list and just filed a bug about the cairo incompat issue, so perhaps emailing the developer list will help spur someone who knows more about it get it fixed quickly00:19
jonocalc, cool :)00:22
calcjono: thanks for reminding me about this bug i think i know which patch adds support for it, so i can more easily search for if there are updates :)00:23
* jono high fives calc :)00:23
calcthe patch i found that took from redhat originally for this to work at all apparently was integrated with OOo 3.0, so not sure what is going on00:25
calcbut i know who to ask :)00:25
calcand the patch was later removed, hmm, ok emailing list00:27
calcthe patch in ooo-build that is00:27
calcjono: maybe we will get lucky and have a fix for it for alpha 6 :)00:30
jonocalc, that would be kick ass :)00:31
calcjono: caolan the redhat OOo guy seems to know quite a bit about gnome programming so may be able to fix it if he doesn't already have a patch for it00:31
jono:)00:31
calcjono: did you get my email a while back about fodt?00:33
jonoodt?00:33
jonofodt?00:33
calcfodt == flat odt (one big uncompressed odt file)00:33
jonohmmm I don't think so00:34
calcah ok00:34
calcwell fodt might be useful for you for revision control since its just a single large uncompressed xml file00:34
calca patch went in about a month ago that fixed the formatting of the file to have line breaks which made it actually usable in rcs situations :)00:35
jonooh nice :)00:35
calcjono: if you run into any problems with it be sure to file bugs :) its a feature added by novell so we can probably get fixes fairly quickly00:36
jonosounds great00:37
jonothanks dude :)00:37

Until symlinks or updated icons for other icon-themes are installed using these without the icon-theme being set to Human will fail to display the intended icon. You can still of course use full file paths to .svg/.png/.jpg icons. The afore listed sourcecode-examples show the use of icons.01:50

seb128didrocks: no sponsoring today due to the freeze which is in effect08:42
didrocksseb128: as mvo__ sponsored libgtop yesterday, I thought that you can dput the .changes and as we are in Freeze for next alpha, it will just be queued for building until the alpha is realeased08:43
didrocksreleased*08:44
seb128didrocks: no, that's a soft freeze for alphas, uploads are not blocked we just need to be civilized08:44
seb128didrocks: yesterday was fine for uploads but better to not do changes today while they try to build cds08:44
didrocksseb128: of course. I thought it was more automatized, but civic rules are right too :)08:44
didrockss/right/good08:45
seb128didrocks: not sure why you would consider blocking uploads as a better technical solution, that would add extra work for people reviewing those items and mean you couldn't get universe fixes, etc in while the CD are being built08:47
didrocksseb128: I didn't say it was good, civic bahvior is always better. I just thought that because libgtop has been built (https://edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+builds?build_text=libgtop&build_state=built) but is no published yet: https://edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libgtop08:49

hggdhseb128, I will look at it14:54
seb128the rules seems a bit complicated14:55
seb128why do you run autotools at build time?14:55
hggdhbecause upstream did a basic (and wrong) debianisation, and Makefile.am was creating a lot of cruft for debian14:56
hggdhso I had to delete the original ./debian (and add in a get-orig-source), and patch Makefile.am/configure.in14:56

mptmvo_, do you have time for a call now (or sometime today) about update-manager?17:24
mvo_mpt: either in ~1h or tomorrow morning, does that work for you?17:25
mvo_(dinner time now)17:25
rickspencer3pitti: Riddell: asac: ^^^^^^17:25
RiddellI'm not, easily enough could start doing so17:26
mptmvo_, ok, what time do you start tomorrow morning?17:27
mvo_mpt: 9:00 my time (so 8:00 yours)17:28
mvo_mpt: I have nothing scheduled in the morning, so anytime that is good for you works for me17:28
mptmvo_, ok, I'll call you 10:00 your time, thanks!17:28
mvo_mpt: thanks17:30
pittirickspencer3, sabdfl: ah, so that's the tag, not dxteam? good, will use it from now17:36
davidbarthpitti: see the wiki page describing the tags in general17:37
davidbarthpitti: use notifications in every case, but please keep on using 'dxteam' when u expect us to actually work on the fix17:37
LaneyDoes the new update-manager behaviour take dist-upgrading with apt(itude) into account when deciding when to launch?17:41
pittidavidbarth: hm, shouldn't we use assignments for that? but well, works for me17:42
Laneyalso I find the new reboot dialog to be suboptimal - I seem to just stumble upon the dialog when doing other things rather than seeing it during the upgrade process17:43
Laneymaybe this is a side-effect of my using docky though17:46
james_wis anyone else experiencing notify-osd "hanging" and not showing notifications?17:54
james_wI feel it might be related to showing dialogs, but I'm not sure17:54
jcastromine "hangs" when I do the volume or brightness adjustments too quickly, as if there's a lag17:55
jcastroand then they eventually catch up17:55
LaneyHmm18:03
Laneycan someone run "for i in $(seq 1 10); do notify-send $i; done" from a shell18:03
Laneysee if you get them all appear18:04
james_wI didn't get 318:06
LaneyIf I just do it with seq 1 3 then I don't get 218:06

Laneywow, how odd18:18
Laneythe missing notification does appear if I change workspace18:18
kenvandine[work]yay... i have sound again18:20
pittikenvandine[work]: \o/18:23
mvo_didrocks: so seb128 is fine with --override? (just to confirm before I run it)18:26
* kenvandine[work] is a bit afraid to try skype again ... :)18:28
rickspencer3asac: ArneGoetje: bryce: calc: kenvandine[work]: pitti: regarding sabdfl's question ...18:28
rickspencer3heno will send us detailed instructions regarding how to tag the bugs so that when we see them, we can quickly tag them18:29
rickspencer3(just fyi)18:29
kenvandine[work]rickspencer3: which question?18:30
rickspencer3kenvandine[work]:  are we tagging bugs with "notifications" properly18:30
kenvandine[work]oh...18:30
kenvandine[work]ok18:31
sabdfl"notifications" means "this has something to do with the new notifications subsystem"18:31
sabdfland "dxteam" means "the dx team will work on fixing it asap!"18:31
rickspencer3kenvandine[work]: you're probably more dialed into this than the rest of us, but we need to get dialed in18:31
kenvandine[work]ok18:31
* kenvandine[work] has been looking over those today :)18:31
pittirickspencer3: ok, thanks18:32
* pitti -> Taekwondo, cu tomorrow!18:32
kenvandine[work]later pitti18:32
rickspencer3pitti: thanks for all your help today!18:32
calcah ok :)18:33
calcthat reminds me i need to ask seb128 if evolution is supposed to be popping up a separate notification window now18:34
calcits been doing that on my system since the new notification system appeared (i think)18:34
kenvandine[work]calc: yeah... we are working on that18:35
rickspencer3calc: do the windows have buttons on them? Are they notifications with actions, in other words?18:35
kenvandine[work]i have a patch18:35
kenvandine[work]calc: you mean in the notification area, right?18:35
calcah its bug 331571 i think18:36
ubottuLaunchpad bug 331571 in evolution "disable Mail Notification eplugin by default" [Low,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/33157118:36
kenvandine[work]yeah18:36
kenvandine[work]i think we have agreed on the fix now18:36
calcrickspencer3: real windows with buttons in the middle of my screen18:36
rickspencer3see, this is exactly what the tag is for18:36
rickspencer3just go here: https://edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bugs?field.tag=notifications18:36
kenvandine[work]calc: oh...18:36
rickspencer3if it's not on the list, it should be, and you can add it to the list by tagging it18:37
calcrickspencer3: ok18:37
kenvandine[work]rickspencer3: i am going to add jaunty-uif tags for bugs that need to be done before UIF18:37
rickspencer3I think it may actually be this one Bug #32859618:37
ubottuLaunchpad bug 328596 in evolution "evolution shouldn't use notifications with actions" [Wishlist,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/32859618:37
rickspencer3which is on the list18:38
rickspencer3kenvandine[work]: thanks. if we can be proactive about helping the dx team to manage UIF and UIFEs, that would be, uh, helpful18:38
calcoh it might be, not completely certain18:38
calcthe window it pops up looks like a regular gtk window with a button telling me that i have new mail18:38
rickspencer3calc: I'm pretty certain that's the bug18:39
calc328596 refers to a bubble though?18:39
calcthis is a full window managed window18:39
calcif i can get it to happen again i can take a screenshot of it18:39
kenvandine[work]calc: please do18:40
rickspencer3calc: notify-osd turns notifications with actions into gtk windows18:40
calcah ok18:40
rickspencer3that's why there shouldn't be an action18:40
kenvandine[work]i bet that is what it is18:40
kenvandine[work]not sure why you are seeing that though18:40
rickspencer3in this way, no program will fail18:40
calcok18:40
rickspencer3kenvandine[work]: was there a plugin or something that calc should enable?18:41
calcfwiw i'm using metacity but do generally get the other black upper right notifications18:41
kenvandine[work]rickspencer3: no18:41
rickspencer3calc: yeah, that means the system is working18:41
* kenvandine[work] looks at something18:41
rickspencer3calc: does OOo offer any notifications?18:41
calcrickspencer3: not afaik18:42
rickspencer3k18:42
kenvandine[work]calc: ah...18:43
kenvandine[work]yeah... my patch will fix that18:43
calckenvandine[work]: great :)18:43
kenvandine[work]if you have the mail notification plugin enabled and a few things checked under it... you get this18:44
kenvandine[work]go to the plugins and look at the options18:44
kenvandine[work]uncheck the icon stuff18:44
kenvandine[work]which is what my patch does by default18:44
kenvandine[work]uncheck "Show icon in notification area"18:45
calcrickspencer3: we might want to mention helping out with the alsainfo thing on the ubuntu wiki at our next meeting, aiui that is to help with PA/ALSA for karmic (?)18:45
calckenvandine[work]: ok18:45
rickspencer3calc: please add it to the agenda for the next team meeting18:46
calcrickspencer3: ok18:46
calckenvandine[work]: so just turn off the master checkbox and it will work?18:47
calckenvandine[work]: the one that has two checkboxes underneath it18:47
kenvandine[work]yes18:47
calcok, thanks18:47
kenvandine[work]which is exactly what my patch does18:47
* kenvandine[work] is ordering his new laptop... T400 :)18:48
calckenvandine[work]: thinkpads are cool :) i got a x20018:49
calcit was between a x200 and t400 for me, i wish the x300 was cheaper since it would have been perfect18:50
calci bought the cheapest hd (160gb) and replaced it with a 500gb 7200rpm drive18:50
kenvandine[work]tedg: anything meaningful here? http://dpaste.com/1485/19:09
tedgkenvandine[work]: Is it in the state with no Pidgin after that?19:10
kenvandine[work]tedg: yes19:13
kenvandine[work]i have a message... the icon is blinking19:13
kenvandine[work]but nothing showing in the indicator19:13
tedgkenvandine[work]: Hmm, okay.  That's definitely a bug in the indicator.  Message is on the bus, but somehow it lost it.19:14
kenvandine[work]ok, what info can i provide on the bug?19:16
kenvandine[work]tedg: interesting thing to note... i can send a message to it from my other account/box and it still shows up in the indicator19:17
kenvandine[work]so it is like one message got dropped or something19:17
tedgkenvandine[work]: Hmm, could you post the log of both?  I wonder if they got the same ID or something.19:18
tedgkenvandine[work]: IE the full listen-and-print log.19:18
kenvandine[work]yeah19:18
kenvandine[work]tedg: the next line (after sending another message) looks like this19:19
kenvandine[work]** (process:4132): DEBUG: Indicator Added:          :1.29 2 message19:19
kenvandine[work]so 2 messages19:19
kenvandine[work]went from 0 to 219:19
* kenvandine[work] adds to bug19:20
tedgkenvandine[work]: I'll look at it, but he other thing that'd be useful is the debug messages from teh applet.  If you do "killall indicator-applet && /usr/lib/indicator-applet/indicator-applet" and then click the reload button on the dialog that pops up you can get those in a terminal.19:21
kenvandine[work]tedg: ok... done19:23
kenvandine[work]next dropped message i will grab the output and post it in the bug19:23

asacbryce: any clue why xev doesnt see Button* events in gtk apps?21:24
bryceasac: something lower down is either blocking, consuming, or ignoring them - could be kernel level or hal21:25

asacdo you know anything better than xev?21:27
bryceno not offhand21:28

brycebtw, when I was messing with xmond, I found that the X we have in ubuntu disables remote X stuff that xmond needed, so I had to flip off that option.  possibly that would need done with xtrace too21:46
