ScottK2claydoh: What should we say about Kubuntu in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JauntyJackalope/BetaAnnouncement01:01
=== ScottK2 is now known as ScottK
claydohI am thinking about that right  now actually01:01
claydohbut my brain is on overload and lack of sleep01:01
claydohany significant changes?01:02
claydohdo we recommend testing upgrades from hardy and intrepid?01:02
* claydoh actually reads the page , ahem01:03
ScottKclaydoh: Please get back to slanagesek with some recommendations tomorrow.01:05
claydohOk01:06
ScottKThanks.01:06
claydohScottK: can we say we are a kde4-only release yet?01:12
claydohor something along those lines'01:13
claydohoo.o notwithstanding01:13
claydohScottK: http://paste.ubuntu.com:80/137136/ <--how is this ?01:24
vorians/building on/built upon (my humble opinion)01:26

shtylmanso I have pacakged a plasmoid from kde-look.org ... how would I go about seeing if anyone wants in in the official repos?02:33
nhandlershtylman: You can package it and put it up in your PPA for people to try it out02:36
shtylmanyea..its in my ppa02:37
shtylmanI got all that fun stuff done :)02:37
nhandlershtylman: If you want to get it into the official repositories: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/NewPackages02:37
nhandlerHowever, it won't get added until the karmic repositories open up02:37
shtylmannhandler: thanks02:41
nhandlerYou're welcome shtylman02:42
pinbackeranyone have the link where one can give feedback on kubuntu beta?07:53
pinbackernamely bugs07:53
pinbackersomeplace on launchpad?07:53
bothorsenpinbacker: If you have specific issues, you really should take them to the bug tracker in launchpad. That way they won't be forgotten07:57
pinbackeri was looking around and google seemed to lead me to post on forums07:58

cvandonderenhey hello10:40
cvandonderenI'm trying to compile my Qt Phonon application on Ubuntu 8.04, I made it on OpenSuSE and I have to adapt a load of stuff10:41
cvandonderenbut now it refuses to link against Phonon10:41
cvandonderenI have include(${QT_USE_FILE} ${QT_USE_PHONON}) and target_link_libraries(commentvideoplayer ${QT_LIBRARIES} ${QT_PHONON_LIBRARY}) set10:42
cvandonderenbut it still does not link against Phonon10:42
cvandonderenwhat should I do?10:42
agateaucvandonderen: did you check QT_PHONON_LIBRARY is not empty?10:42
agateauon my machine, QT_PHONO_LIBRARY is empty, but PHONON_LIBRARY is not10:44
cvandonderenhmm10:45
cvandonderennow it says -lphonon not found10:46
cvandonderenbut I have libphonon-dev installed10:46
agateauvery strange10:47
agateaudid you copy your src+build tree from the SuSE machine?10:47
cvandonderensubversion ;-)10:47
cvandonderenso did a check-in on the suse machine10:48
cvandonderenand check out on the ubuntu machine10:48
agateauok so the CMakeCache.txt does not come from SuSE10:48
cvandonderennoope10:48
cvandonderendeleted that all10:48
agateauand you have /usr/lib/libphonon.so10:48
agateau?10:49
cvandonderenno, it is normal ubuntu, so it is installed to /usr/lib/kde4/libphonon/libphonon.so, I did make a symlink for the headers though10:49
cvandonderenso did ln -s /usr/lib/kde4/include/phonon /usr/include/10:50
agateaucvandonderen: not a good idea i think10:50
cvandonderenso now I have the /usr/include/phonon/videoplayer.h in the smae position as on SuSE10:50
agateaubetter get CMake to figure it out10:50
cvandonderenhmm, yes10:50
cvandonderenbut how?10:50
cvandonderen:-P10:50
cvandonderenthere is nop cmake-phonon package10:51
cvandonderenand I have libqt4-dev installed10:51
cvandonderenso all cmakefiles should be there10:51
agateaulet me check the package contents10:51
* agateau runs 9.04, not 8.0410:51
cvandonderenand if I remove the symlink for the phonon files, it does not even find the file :P10:53
cvandonderenobviously10:53
cvandonderensince I link against <phonon/videoplayer.h>10:53
agateauyes, but with the symlink it may be fooled into believing phonon is installed in /usr10:53
cvandonderenthat's true10:54
agateaurather than /usr/lib/kde410:54
agateauso you need to either symlink headers and libs10:54
cvandonderenbut why did kubuntu make the choice to insatll it to /usr/lib/kde4?10:54
cvandonderenthen they have to change every file10:54
cvandonderenthat links against that10:54
agateaubecause it is where all kde4 stuff went for 8.0410:54
cvandonderenaah10:54
agateauin 9.04 it's in /usr10:54
cvandonderenkay10:55
cvandonderenso it's just because of 8.04 :P10:55
agateaui think so10:55
cvandonderenhmm10:55
agateauyou may want to try cmake vars like CMAKE_EXTRA_INCLUDE and CMAKE_EXTRA_LIBS (from memory)10:55
cvandonderenand where do I need to point those?10:55
cvandonderenbecause -lphonon is not found10:56
cvandonderen:P10:56
agateausomething like this: cmake -DCMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/kde4/libphonon10:57
agateau(found the real name with cmake --help-command find_library)10:58
a|wencvandonderen: for 8.04 we still had kde3; so all kde4 was 'redirected' to some non-standard directories ... if you use 8.10 or 9.04 instead, everything should become much easier10:58
cvandonderenI just heard there is a broken partition on that PC10:58
cvandonderenso I'll just do a kubuntu 9.04 install :P10:58
cvandonderenthanks anyways :-D11:01
agateauok, good luck11:01
cvandonderen(and then to think I'm a Ubuntu NL support person ;-) )11:01
agateau:)11:01

Riddella|wen: check if python-qt4-dbus works once the upgrade is done, it didn't for me12:08
a|wenRiddell: you mean before or after the restart?12:09

blizzzi experience strange behaviour with desktop 386 in virtual box. after kde startet, some icons are missing. a haover over one of them later the screen turns black. krunner does not work. ctrl+alt+del does not work (ctrl+alt+backspace either, but that function is disabled by x, isn't it?)12:24
blizzzwhen shutting down there are squashfs errors, i guess the iso is not correctly downloaded12:27
blizzzmh, md5 is correct12:29
Riddellblizzz: report them as bugs and note the result on iso.qa.ubuntu.com12:33
blizzzRiddell: now, after restart, it looks fine so far12:35
blizzzRiddell: should i report this anyway?12:36
Riddellblizzz: what icons are missing?12:37
blizzzRiddell: that were some plasma-widgets, but since the screen became black i could not detect which ones they were. however now, after reboot, everything is there. weird, isn't?12:39
Riddellblizzz: well, report it anyway12:40
blizzzRiddell: will do. bugs go over launchpad directly? special tags or something to use?12:50
Riddellyes launchpad, note the number and report it on iso.qa.ubuntu.com12:52
blizzzRiddell: done13:04
jjesseRiddell: i've done several successful vm builds with the beta iso image with no problems so far13:22
agateauRiddell: I will be holding a KDE booth at a french exhibition at the end of the month. Any chance you could send me kubuntu goodies?13:27

* agateau is a Canonical noob13:34
agateauRiddell: I will be at millbank building tomorrow, do you think i can grab some goodies directly from there?13:34

agateaudon't know what i can do to make things move16:15
maconixternal: cry?16:15
seelemaco: you were that inspiring16:16

Riddellagateau: I think I'll just upload with you patch after beta16:17
macoVal's awesome though16:17
agateauRiddell: please don't, the patch is wrong, as Kees explained16:18
macoseele: she was at the first DC LinuxChix meetup i went to.  you were there, right? you guys were the first women i met IRL that use linux16:18
seelemaco: yes i was there16:19
nixternalmaco: did you read any stories val has on her website? that part about her biological father16:19
maconixternal: yes16:19
nixternalthat's what i was talking about, the touching part...my god that was horrible and to see the insane amount of strength16:20
macoi think val was the first to introduce herself, and i went O_O when she said what she did, then the rest of you all said what you did and i was like "umm *hide* i just use it..."16:20
nixternalmaco: that was then, now look at ya16:20
maconixternal: like i said, she's tough16:21
maconixternal: blame wanting to fit in with the rest of the geniuses in linuxchix16:21
seelemost linuxchix i know are just users16:22
nixternaloh, I have others to blame for you as well ;)16:22
seelemaybe you just have the smart ones as friends16:22
nixternalhahahahaha16:22
macoseele: well you, val, um...that lady that came with val, and katie all do cool stuff...and then there's the #linuxchix channel...if i have a problem #ubuntu-offtopic can't answer (it's often used as #ubuntu-advanced since #ubuntu focuses rather heavily on beginner stuff), i ask there16:23
nixternali wonder why chicago doesn't have a linuxchix16:24
nixternalthen again, when I think about it, we only have a few women who show up to lug meetings16:24
maconixternal: only 2 of us go to lug meetings16:24
nixternalheh, this one lady, when she came to our lug meeting introduced herself as "the one who is here to break up the "He Man Woman Haters Club"16:25
macoit took me until 2 months ago to realize that soft-spoken long-hair-lady at LUG and soft-spoken long-hair lady at LinuxChix are the same person16:25
nixternalthe funny part, only 3 of us knew what she was talking about16:26
macothey never saw Little Rascals? :-O16:26
nixternalpeople never watched the little rascals growing up16:26
nixternalright16:26
nixternalso I did "I love you Darla"16:26
maconote that ive known her in both contexts for over TWO YEARS16:26
nixternali have done that myself16:27
macoseele: oh yeah. so i think itd be nice to have a tech day for linuxchix to go along with all our social days. i was thinking a "how to contribute, even if you dont code" day would be neat. dan suggested "have linuxchix host it, then invite the lugs to learn from the chix" which sounded like a swell idea. would you be interested in teaching a usability workshop?16:29
nixternalactually for me...there are 3 ladies that really got me into contributing again to open source after a hiatus. in Ubuntu it was hobbsee, in KDE it was annma, and in Debian it was ana...all 3 were team leaders who got me up and running big time just a few years back again16:29
seeleyeah i dunno.. i'm not really into the whole chick thing16:30
nixternalthat was sexist :p16:30
seelei participate in dc linux chix because katie and laura have been my friends for a long time and i work with barbara16:30
seeleso it's more of a social gathering. justin and brian and sometimes other brian go to those things, so it's just an extension of our normal social geekery16:31
seelenixternal: yeah well.. go out there and shoot me a deer or you get nothing for dinner!16:32
seelenixternal: take the garbage on the way out too16:32

macoso "not really into the whole chick thing" = why you're not in ubuntu-women?16:34

seeleheh no16:35
seaLneis it a bug that d-i complains about a mounted filesystem (that i'm booted off) when i install from usb pendrive?16:35
seaLneits suggestion of unmounting it woldn't have been a good idea :)16:36
macoseaLne: its being discussed on ubuntu-devel, i think16:36
nixternalseele: when does it happen?16:37
seelenixternal: when does what happen?16:37
seaLneah, didn't think i'd have been the first to encounter it16:37
nixternalerr, sorry seele, i meant seaLne :)16:37
seaLnejust before the partitioning16:37
nixternalya, I have noticed that as well in the past, but not only with kubuntu...i have noticed it with anaconda based installers as well16:38
nixternalwondering if it is parted16:38
macothis is like the eventual day when me, mako, his gf mika, and her friend micha will be in the same room. its bound to happen eventually, just for the name-pronunciation tongue-twisting effects16:38
macojjesse: deb says when that day does happen, she's getting the heck out of the room :P16:38
jjessewhat?16:39
macojjesse: look one line up16:39

nixternalstupid chicago and their meter readers16:42
seelenixternal: do you have traffic cameras?16:43
nixternaloh ya, big time16:43
seeleyeah, DC is going to double the number they have in order to fill an 800 mil operating deficit16:43
nixternalit doesn't fill that deficit....chicago is proof16:43
seelenixternal: a pilot test "accidentally" earned 1 mil in 1 month because the ticket threshold was too low16:44
nixternalthe #1 rule breaker with the traffic cams, public busses16:44
seelelol16:44
nixternaland those tickets get paid by the tax payers16:44
seelethat seems silly for them to ticket public busses because then they will have to give them a travel subsidy at the end of the year for them to operate16:45
nixternalin new york, don't mess with the cabbies, in chicago, don't mess with the busses...they do not stop for anything16:45
nixternalnothing like getting clipped by a CTA bus while riding your bike16:46

a|wenblizzz: pong20:06
blizzza|wen: hi!  you told me to report you problems with kile if they appear20:07
blizzzsince i have your ppa package installed20:07
a|wenblizzz: yes20:08
blizzzactually, kile likes to forget shortcuts by chance.20:08
blizzze.g. it forgets the settings for alt+1, quick build, as well as self-defined ones20:08
a|wenokay, that sounds kind of strange20:09
blizzzyes, i was kinda puzzled the first time i saw it20:10
a|wenmight it have happened after upgrading kile? or does it happen randomly20:10
blizzza|wen: randomly. same behaviour before and after the upgrade20:11
a|wenblizzz: i've pushed some updates through the ppa, so wondered if it was after one of them?20:12
blizzza|wen: it occured with the first version i got from you and the current one. (originally i installed the deb, included your ppa today)20:13
a|wenblizzz: okay ... i know that a lot of changes has happened to the upstream code since20:15
a|wenblizzz: try with the newest one from the ppa (if you are running 8.10) ... if it still happens, please report a bug against kile in LP (the ppa-version is currently equivalent to the version in jaunty)20:16
blizzza|wen: it happens with the current version, too, (yes 8.10).20:18
blizzzwill do the bug report20:18
a|wenblizzz: thx!20:18
blizzzi thank you for the backports :) besides this, kile works very good, did a smaller thesis, a letter and a cv so far without any problems20:19
QuintasanAt last! The Kopete notifications are going to stack. No more 135 notifications :D20:20
a|wenblizzz: good, sounds very encouraging :) ... it should hopefully be good enough, as it is included in jaunty20:21

a|wenhmm... X wants to use ~100% cpu all the time in jaunty for me; slows everything down quite a lot20:55

ScottKa|wen: What video chipset?20:56
Quintasanthe String Freeze is already in effect?20:56
a|wenScottK: ATI Technologies Inc M22 [Mobility Radeon X300] ... using the open source ati driver20:57
ScottKOK.  No idea about that one.20:58
blizzza|wen: did you try closed drivers?20:59
Quintasanblizzz: they dont work with new xserver20:59
a|wenmy chipset never really worked with closed drivers in any case ... not well at least21:02
a|wenand loads of garbage on screen most of the time21:05
QuintasanToo bad my comp is so old, I'm not able to work with desktop effects enabled :<21:06
* kb9vqf sympathizes with a|wen21:07
* kb9vqf has the same chipset21:07
a|wenkb9vqf: same problem on jaunty21:08
a|wen?21:08
kb9vqfa|wen With the closed drivers, I can't get the video to work at all21:08
kb9vqfI have to use VESA, and KDE4.2 won't load at all21:09
a|wenkb9vqf: what about open source drivers?21:09
kb9vqfa|wen: No good, they don't work either21:09
kb9vqfa|wen: Same garbled screen21:09
kb9vqfI can give more details on the system if you want...21:10
* a|wen can live with the garbled screen ... if just X would stop taking all his cpu cycles21:11
kb9vqfa|wen: Which driver are you using?  VESA or the open ati driver?21:11
a|wenthe open ati one21:14
* Quintasan goes to bed, he really needs some sleep21:16
coucouf__just dropping a note, the "About Kubuntu" icon on the live CD desktop is broken21:18
coucouf__The file or folder help:/kubuntu/about-kubuntu does not exist.21:19
JontheEchidnaThat could be a result of the docs being installed to the wrong dir, as they are with the current kubuntu-docs package21:20
JontheEchidnaI think that is to be fixed next upload21:20
coucouf__ok21:21
JontheEchidnaThanks for reporting it anyways :)21:22
coucouf__and the boot menu isn't completely localized21:22
coucouf__for example "Check the CD for defects" stays in english21:22
coucouf__something more anoying, the ubiquity window doesn't fit in my 800x480 screen height21:25
coucouf__if i didn't know the alt+click shortcut, I wouldn't be able to go past the first step21:26
a|wendecreasing virtual screen size helped a lot ... now it still eats a lot of cpu, but my comp is usable (still with loads of glitches)21:41
a|wenRiddell: exactly what did you want me to test regarding python-qt4-dbus ?21:42
* kb9vqf wonders why Juanty's KDE4.2 always loads into a black screen with only a mouse cursor21:43
freinhardkb9vqf: got that once with the liveCD, no idea why. toasted another one and it was gone.21:44
kb9vqffreinhard: This was with a direct upgrade from Intrepid21:45
kb9vqfMaybe I'll try a livecd in this system and see if it works21:45

Riddella|wen: at a python shell type `import dbus.mainloop.qt`21:56
Riddelldoes it work?21:56

a|wenRiddell: do we know what goes wrong here?22:01
freinhardcan i upgrade from 8.04 to 9.04 directly?22:01
Riddellclaydoh: I think it's best to do a whole introduction to jaunty, so don't worry about the alpha6 to beta differences, just do a first draft of what we'll want on the final release22:01
Riddellfreinhard: yes22:01
claydohRiddell: Ok22:01
Riddellgabrielgomez: no idea I'm afraid22:01

freinhardgot two spare laptops (same hardware) one with 8.04 and one with 8.10 (but i guess that one is messed up with kubuntu-experimental packages)22:03
Riddellfreinhard: even better, we need to check that upgrades work from people who have installed a load of stuff22:05
a|wenRiddell: do you want me to test anything more regarding python-qt4-dbus?22:05
freinhardRiddell: that'll take some time, need to mirror the harddrives first...22:05

a|wenif it works for you as well, it might be worth mentioning somewhere22:30
