Riddellhi danimo_00:05
Riddelljust uploading qt 4.500:05
* jussi01 just applied for uds sponsorship00:25
Riddellyay00:28
jussi01I hope I get it. Id really want to come :)00:29
JontheEchidnaSo are we going to remove knetworkmanager now that we have the plasmoid?00:38
Riddelldoes the plasmoid work for everyone?00:39
ScottKI think removing it for Jaunty would be a mistake.  I think we should ship it on the dvd.00:39
RiddellI havn't heard many complaints00:39
ScottKI think leaving it on the dvd for one release is safe.00:39
ScottKThen people have a way to install on a wireless only system that won't work with the plasmoid.00:40
JontheEchidnaI think asac was wanting to know in one of the bug reports00:41
JontheEchidnasince knetworkmanager was so buggy00:41
JontheEchidnaI will migrate wishlist bugs over to the plasmoid at least00:41
ScottKPeople say that but except for a few crashes it's worked great for me since edgy00:42
JontheEchidnaStatic IP config is totally busted and since 0.7+svn it lost that box that used to come up on left-click showing stats, etc00:44
JontheEchidnaI think it's a very mixed bag based on what you use it for00:45
* Nightrose +1's JontheEchidna00:48
Nightrosethe static IP thing was a huge pita when i was in greece00:48
JontheEchidnaSo while I suppose that for some usecases it works adequately, it is somewhat of a pain to maintain bugs for00:49
Nightrosethe hotel wifi wanted a static IP...00:49
* ScottK doesn't use NM with static IP.00:49
jussi01with dynamic Ive had no issues - its been fantastic00:50
JontheEchidnaYeah, generally it worked flawless for me with a dynamic wired connection too00:50
jussi01only thing missing is a feature - integration of the mobile-broadband-database00:50
JontheEchidnamaybe we could invite asac to the next meeting to give this a proper discussion?00:53
JontheEchidnaWhen is the next meeting? It's soon, isn't it?00:55
seelekubuntu meeting? i didn't realise there was one scheduled00:55
JontheEchidnaI don't know for sure.. that's why I was asking00:55
Riddellthere isn't one00:55
Riddellfeel free to schedule one though00:56
seeleScottK: do you know about a CALug meeting on April 8?00:56
ScottKI have a vague recollection one is coming up.  Did I get volunteered to present?01:25
seeleno, but i did about training people for usability testing of ubuntu01:28
seelenot really keen on it, but they asked too nicely01:28
seelewtf keen? i need to watch some television and get my vocabulary back01:28
ScottKLooks like Qt 4.5 didn't help ports any.02:06
jjessewow nice reference to keen :)02:07
JontheEchidnaThe new kpackagekit is nice02:19
jjessei liked the kcontrol update module or whatever it is02:20
jjesseis there a reason the daily cds are always such a slllooooooooooowww download for me?02:21
* ScottK notes two versions of qt4-x11 building on sparc at the same time and wonders how that will work out.02:21
jjessei bet not very well ;)02:21
* ScottK suspects there's a narrow window where things get racy. Hopefully they don't finish that close together.02:22

JontheEchidnaNot that I'm aware of03:05
ScottKIt needs doing.03:07
vorianon it03:07
macowhat needs done?03:24
ScottKNew bugfix release needs packaging.03:25
macocan i try a bit later tonight?03:26
ScottKI think vorian is doing it already and that one is a beast (embedds its own mysql) for someone who's just getting started.03:29

LaserJockI only have 1 group though so no need to group the groups03:37
LaserJockI'm not nearly as popular as you it seems ;-)03:37

markeymorning07:58
markeyguys, the "reboot required" is getting a bit ridiculous07:58
markeyI might have stayed on windows in this regard07:58
markeyyesterday I was asked to reboot after an adept update07:59
Mamarokwhy does one have to reboot for a network-manager update?07:59
markeyguess what happened this morning again?07:59
markeythis is a workstation; I don't usually reboot it07:59
markeybtw, if you want to see kubuntu deployed on KIOSK like hardware, this is a big no-no too08:02
bothorsenOdd, I didn't get any reboot required08:04
markeylucky you08:04
bothorsenmarkey: You usually only get those after updating the kernel or kernel modules08:04
markeyyes, this time there was no kernel update (the kernel upates are far too frequent, but that's another topic)08:05
markeyit was just KNetworkManager and few other things updated08:05
bothorsenmarkey: If you keep getting them, perhaps you should investigate if something (not that I have any clue what it could be) have been confused08:05
rgreeningperhaps you have enabled: backports, updates, etc. when perhaps you should only have security updates enabled in your softweare sources.08:06
rgreeningturning on all updates is not necessary and sometimes you get what you ask for...08:06
markeyyes I have enabled backports. but why should that turn me into someone wanting to reboot every day?08:06
markeyI don't see the connection08:06
bothorsenmarkey: Hehe, I didn't get the update notification before just now. So I will see if I also get the reboot notification08:06
ExilantHi, I'm trying to write a python plasmoid in jaunty(kde 4.2), however, with the examples from the kde tech-base i always get errors, namely the "from PyKDE4 import plasmascript" fails. (python-plasma is installed, /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/PyKDE4/plasmascript.py is present), any ideas?08:07
rgreeningreboot isn't absolutely required like in windows. the system will happily run. the reboot is to get new stuff affected by the update thaty can only ever occur via restarting in the new kernel, for ex08:07
rgreeningmarkey: ^08:07
markeyin this case, the system should not indicate to me that a reboot is required08:08
markeyit should be made smarter08:08
rgreeningthe icon is a reminder... and doesn't force you08:08
markeyand decide if that reboot is _really_ needed08:08
markey(it isn't)08:08
bothorsenmarkey: I also got the reboot icon. But I shut down my machines when not working, so it's no big deal for me08:08
rgreeningif you think you can improve it, feel free to offer patches and suggestions :)08:08
rgreeningthey are always welcome08:08
markeyI'm offering my advice :)08:09
rgreeningadvice without suggestion is a waste of o2 :)08:09
markeyyou could talk to this over with your usability experts (seele..)08:09
rgreening"make it better" means nothing. define better :P08:09
rgreeningfeel free to open a brainstorm or a bug and define what you would like to change. perhaps someone will find your suggestions useful and make a change.08:10
markeythat guy is great ;)08:11
markeylike totally08:11
markeyand gone.08:11
markeywb rgreening08:12

FireRabbitgood night rgreening08:14
* FireRabbit will wait on the edge of his chair for 4.2.1 to show up in the update manager!08:15
rgreeningnite FireRabbit (kdebindings update in for Jaunty). I'll do Intrepid in about 6hrs or so...08:15
FireRabbitgreat thanks very much!08:15

ScottKThat's the one14:53
jjesse_is there a mirror to cdimages.ubuntu.com that i could get better transfer rates off of?14:53

ScottKYes.  Use the upgrader like smarter is telling you.14:54
mvohi, if someone has a somewhat current kubuntu (alpha5 or better) install, could you please test if gdebi-kde on a terminal starts? or gives a error? (to verify bug #336896)14:54

smarterIt does all sort of horrible things to compense the lack of skills of developers regarding upgrades :P14:54
ScottKmvo: IIRC we've been discussing getting rid of that.14:54

neversfeldeI have several problems with 4.2.1, they are all plasma related I think15:29
rgreeningScottK: does reportbug send to ubuntu or debian in our package?15:29
ScottKBy default I believe it falls and dies or if you have an older version it mails to ubuntu-users.  You can point it at Debian.15:30
rgreeningok15:30
rgreeningnever used it before15:31
rickspencer3is there any way I can set up Kubuntu so the gtk app I am writing doesn't look so weird?15:34

rickspencer3like a them I can apply or something?15:34

smarterrickspencer3: if gtk-qt-engine is installed, it should uses the Qt/KDE theme15:35

rickspencer3hmm15:36
rickspencer3it says that it is installed15:36
ScottKrickspencer3: The appearance section of systemsettings has a section on GTK Styles and Fonts.15:37
ScottKYou want to make sure you have "Use another style ..." selected there.15:37
ScottKPersonally I like qtcurve better.15:37
neversfeldea good workaround is using qt-curve, even when it is old, I think15:37
neversfelde:)15:37
rickspencer3hmm15:38
rickspencer3ScottK:  it doesn't seem to be working, do I have to restart?15:38
ScottKBTW, is the Firefox/Thunderbird scrollbar fix question still relevant?15:38
rickspencer3also, my options are Qt4 and Raliegh15:38
* ScottK isn't sure, but thinks you need to logout/in15:39
