smarterI'll try to get into contact with that guy and resurrect some parts of Kvkbd00:00
JontheEchidnaastromme: GPL00:00
JontheEchidnaastromme: Also I applied earlier today for a KDE svn account, so maybe in the near future...00:01
* astromme shrugs. If you can't get in contact with the upstream author, just fork it.00:01
astrommeJontheEchidna: Yippie =)00:01
astrommeI might also consider adopting the widget. Or at least applying patches00:01
JontheEchidnaastromme: I plan on putting a weather-aware wallpaper plugin into playground once I get an account00:01
smarterif that guy managed to properly use qt layouts to looks like a keyboard(instead of the mess of hardcoded stuff in kvkbd :p), it'll make me a lot more motivated to work on it (:00:02
astrommeJontheEchidna: Very cool. Do you have some code now?00:02
JontheEchidnaastromme: Yeah, it's still a bit rough, but it works00:03
astrommeDoes the plugin change backgrounds? Or does it apply an overlay depending on the weather?00:03
astrommeI could imagine a really cool plugin where I have my own background, but effects are applied depending on weather00:03
astrommei.e. raindrops, snow, bright light, outlines of clouds, etc...00:04
JontheEchidnaIt pings the dataengine for the weather condition, and paints a QImage of a 1280x1024 wallpaper on the screen depending on the weather it recieves back00:04
JontheEchidnaIt uses There is Rain on the Table and some other default KDE wallpapers at the moment :P00:04
astromme=)00:05
* JontheEchidna waits for pastebin to finish00:06
JontheEchidnahttp://imagebin.ca/view/2xLuVFt.html00:07
astrommesmarter: It looks like he's using subwidgets with a bunch of setGeometry() calls in paint()00:07
JontheEchidnawaiting for the other one to paste00:07
astrommeerm, make that subgraphicsitems00:07
smarterhmmpf00:07
astrommesmarter: http://pastebin.ca/9900:08
JontheEchidnamore interesting screen: http://imagebin.ca/view/mC11HM.html00:09
astrommeerm, wtf00:09
astrommethat was wrong00:09
astrommesmarter:  pastebin plasmoid didn't work00:09
astrommesmarter: http://rafb.net/p/wPUq4F42.html <-- better00:10
astrommeJontheEchidna: I wonder if you could have a number of semitransparent overlays? (in svn, so they could scale)00:11
smarterah, that's already a lot better than kvkbd which almost has 5 lines of code per buttons :p00:11
astrommeJontheEchidna: Using an alpha channel, you could then have the overlay for any background you already have00:11
astrommesmarter: ahh, ok =)00:11
JontheEchidnaastromme: That would be interesting indeed00:11
astrommeJontheEchidna: I'm no graphics/art expert, but I could play around with it00:12
JontheEchidnaThis was the inspiration: http://creativebits.org/my_dream_app_winner_atmosphere00:12
astrommealright, cool00:12
JontheEchidnadunno how feasible the sidebar stuff is though00:13
JontheEchidnahttp://creativebits.org/files/atmosphere22-2.jpg00:13
astrommeJontheEchidna: well, you could maybe put it in a sliding panel...00:15
astrommehmm, or maybe not00:15
astrommethat could be bad00:15
JontheEchidnayeah00:15
JontheEchidnaMaybe you could have the nice default of weathery wallpapers, with the choice of setting your own00:16
JontheEchidnaplus the weather overlays00:16
JontheEchidnawith an overlay with basic weather info & location00:17
JontheEchidnabut for now I'd like to get all the stuff that's there working00:18
JontheEchidnalike it breaks after you set a different location than the one you first set00:19
JontheEchidnathe preview in the config dialog changes properly, but not the wallpaper itself00:19
JontheEchidnaMaybe I should just push my code somewhere now00:19
JontheEchidnabrb00:19
nixternalanyone having issues with choqoK?00:38
nixternalI keep getting like 1,500 tweets in my inbox when they really aren't there00:38
astrommeJontheEchidna: Yeah, pushing it somewhere now would be cool. If it's git, try giterious. If it's bzr, try launchpad. If it's svn... well.. erm00:42
jjessenixternal: i am00:43
JontheEchidnaastromme: I'll probably push it to bzr once I get back from the store00:43
jjessenixternal: the emails in choqoK are repeated00:43
nixternalya, over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over.....00:44
nixternaland over and over and over :p00:44

astrommeoh, doh01:15
astrommeI was thinking.... does he mean clone? oh, that's git.. no...01:15
astrommeI see =)01:15
JontheEchidnaI was just thinking opposites...01:15
astrommemake; make install worked. Good start =P01:16
JontheEchidnahehe01:16
astrommeHmm, where do I select it? I don't see anywhere to select wallpaper plugin01:17
* astromme says.. nvm01:17
JontheEchidnaAppearance settings -> under wallpaper there is a "type" combobox01:17
astrommeWorks =). I get a field01:18
astrommeShould I be getting different images when it's dark?01:18
JontheEchidnait's not that quite elaborate yet, but if the ion returns weather-clouds-night it will do a nice night pic01:19
JontheEchidnaI'm thinking of involving the time dataengine to grab time data01:19
JontheEchidnaThere's also probably a ton of weather conditions the code doesn't have an if statement for :P01:20
* astromme imports it as a kdevelop4 project and starts poking around01:21
JontheEchidnaweather-showers-scattered is my current weather, There is Rain on the Table01:21
JontheEchidnait kDebug's the current weather to the console01:22
astrommeIf you wanted to go the route of semitransparent-overlay-only I wonder if you could subclass the normal background code?01:23
JontheEchidnaLike, make WeatherWallpaper::paint it's own class?01:26
* JontheEchidna is bit of a C++ newb, I've done mostly python01:26
astrommeyeah01:27
astrommeerm01:27
astrommeI don't know how the other plugins are set up01:27
astrommebut in theory, couldn't you get all the goodies of the other plugin by subclassing it and then adding on what you need?01:27
JontheEchidnathere aren't that many other ones, I used the pattern wallpaper in playground as an example01:27
astrommeok01:28
JontheEchidnaFrom what I can tell init, createConfigurationInterface and paint are the only functions that the plugin is required to implement01:29
astrommeHmm, on second thought probably not a good idea01:29
astrommebecause you'll have to reimplement createConfig..., init, and paint anyways01:29
astrommeIt was just that I think that many users might like it as it is now, changing wallpaper based on weather. But for me, it would be more interesting if it only put an overlay on top of my wallpaper to indicate weather01:29
astrommebtw, I think painting a stretched pixmap might work better01:30
JontheEchidnaYeah, stretched might be better than shipping 40 MB of wallpaper, hehe01:30
jjesseargh why does kontact crash so much with gmail and imap01:30
astrommeJontheEchidna: well, and you could also depend on the installed wallpapers package01:31
JontheEchidnaI should probably find out how to depend on workspace with CMake01:31
JontheEchidnaMaybe it should load the correct resolution if available, and then fall back to stretched?01:32
* ryanakca kicks his computer and stinking soft-lockups on CPU:#0 :/01:33
astrommeJontheEchidna: not sure if cmake can do that type of dependencies..01:33
astrommeJontheEchidna: yeah, that would be nice01:33
JontheEchidnaAlso I need to not rely on getting weather icon strings from the dataengine, since some weather services don't have icons01:34
JontheEchidnaI guess I need to read up on the weather dataengine documentation01:34
astrommewhat info does the dataengine give....01:34
astrommeyeah01:34
astrommeWhat do I call to get the weather?01:35
JontheEchidnagetWeather() should make it get the weather01:35
JontheEchidnathe second time you set a location it stops working though :(01:37
astrommeoh noes =/01:37
astrommewhy?01:37
JontheEchidnaI don't know quite yet01:37
astrommeheh01:37
JontheEchidnaif (m_extraData[m_activePlace].isEmpty()) returns empty for some reason01:37
JontheEchidnaand it just sits at the "loading the weather data" wallpaper01:38
JontheEchidnaI am probably doing something funky with the config handling01:38
astrommeDataengines can be kind of screwy01:38
JontheEchidnathe funny thing is that the preview inside the appearance dialog gets changed to the correct weather01:39
JontheEchidnabut the weathercontent function never gets called to set the new wallpaper name01:39
astrommeI had a lot of trouble when I went to write the rememberthemilk data engine01:39
JontheEchidnaI think this might be the only plugin other than the weather applet (or one of the only other ones) to use the weather data engine01:40
Gonanyone had problems with NetworkManager plasmoid in jaunty?01:41
JontheEchidnaI did leave the wallpaper plugin on overnight, so I can confirm that updating does work :)01:43
astrommeJontheEchidna: Always a good thing to check =)01:53

vorianmy intel hasn't had any issues during this cycle02:29

metelliusjaunty betatester here. something that looks like kpackagekit related icons pops up in the tray every now and then for about a second, and it's very distracting because (1) the whole system tray pops back and forward (2) I don't know what it is and (3) I never get the chance to mouseover it during that one second, and am left with the feeling that the computer is doing something it doesn't want to tell me in the background03:16
metelliusplease don't use the tray for temporary processes like this03:18
Daskreechmetellius: when does it happen?03:19
metelliusit happened just now again. so the answer i guess is all the time, around 10 times an hour03:20
nixternalI am having a block big time writing this presentation on Kubuntu for Friday03:20
metelliusnext time I will have the screenshot button ready03:22
dtchennixternal: what perspective/approach?03:22
ScottKmetellius: It's a notification that is supposed to be persistent, but isn't due to some kind of KNotification bug.03:24
DaskreechIs jaunty kde 4.2 trunk ?03:26
metelliushttp://imagebin.ca/view/QXV95nZh.html03:27
ScottKDaskreech: it's 4.2.1 now.  4.2.2 is near to being ready.03:27
Daskreechdownloading something ?03:27
ScottKI'm pretty sure that's the one that's supposed to be the persistent you have updates available notification.03:27
metelliusit is a 2+ stage icon03:28
metelliusit has what looks like a box right before it03:28
JontheEchidnaI thought we disabled the entire KPK daemon03:28
JontheEchidnathe icon shouldn't show up anymore, I don't think03:28
metelliusI have three packagekit related process running03:29
metelliusjaunty user since the day before yesterday03:29
nixternaldtchen: I think that might be my problem...can't figure out what the best approach will be right now03:33
Daskreechjackalope doesn't ship with universe enabled by default?03:34
dtchennixternal: try something novel03:35
Daskreechmetellius: other than bounding boxes how do you like it?03:37
metelliusDaskreech: huh?03:37
DaskreechHow do you like jackalope ?03:38
metelliusoh03:46
metelliuswell, some problem with the intel driver kind of ruins the whole experience. I've been waiting for all the blocks to fall into place, but it was kind of an anticlimax to now have dri2, gem and uxa acceleration all present in the drivers and experience the worst graphics performance regression since ever03:48
metelliuslooked for xorg-indel related performance bugs at launchpad, but there's always some gnome-user saying "oh, I fixed it by removing gnome-yadiyadiyadi", and then the thread gets marked of as a duplicate of some gnome-related problem03:51
metellius...but other than this, great. nice to have qt 4.5, upgrade went smooth with only one conflict (my own fault), and things look ok03:52
JontheEchidnaYeah, everything was supremely awesome until DRI2, I just hope we don't get blamed for "usual Kubuntu suckiness" over it :/03:57
DaskreechWe will03:58
JontheEchidnaWe should replace the default ksplash with "Intel drivers suck! Bitch at them!"03:59
DaskreechI was looking at a blog and they were saying how Kubuntu made KDE looks so bad that Linus switched from Kubuntu to Gnome04:01
* Daskreech facepalm04:01
metelliusJontheEchidna: are you experiencing the same problem?04:02
JontheEchidnano, but we are getting a crapton of bugs04:02
metelliusI see04:03
JontheEchidnayeah, the screenshots look pretty bad04:03
metelliusscreenshots? I have not artifacts04:03
metelliusjust bad performance04:03
JontheEchidnaoh, performance bugs too04:04

metelliussigh, and intel has been saying that its going to be ok once they have finished all the building blocks. now they have04:06
metelliusi blame them04:06
JontheEchidnathe thing is it also coincided with the Qt 4.5 upgrade04:07
JontheEchidnaso people are going to think it's all Qt's fault04:07
metelliuspeople are going to think a lot of things04:07
metelliusit's going to be a messy upgrade this time04:07
metelliusi would very much like to test the 2.6.29 kernel with the kernel modechange though. any idea when I might be able to try this with ubuntu?04:09
JontheEchidnaI think there is a PPA somewhere, so it is possible, but I don't know much more04:13
* JontheEchidna out for the night04:13
ScottKThe kernel team does provide upstream kernel packages.  I don't recall where.04:13
dtchenhttp://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa04:13
metelliusthank you04:14
metelliusalright, time to reboot and see if I get any performance boost with 2.6.2904:17
ScottKI think Gutsy was the last release that I felt all the pieces came together nicely and were good as a whole.  Each one since has had good and some substantial bad point.04:17
metelliusagreed04:28
metelliusseems like there is too much to ask for an artifact-free smooth visual experience these days04:29

Mamarokand why would we even need that one?09:04
Mamarokpulseaudio still shows up in phonon09:04
a|wenMamarok: because you have a program installed which is compiled so it can be used with pulseaudio09:05
a|wenMamarok: so that one is not one to worry about ... can't make any mess of it by itself :)09:06
a|wenMamarok: just re-order stuff in phonon so pulseaudio has lowest priority09:07
* a|wen got his sound working again that way at least09:10
a|wenMamarok: uhh, and be sure to purge all the pulseaudio stuff you had install ... removing seems not to be enough for many of them09:11

mornfallJontheEchidna: Hi, you take care of Adept?12:50
mornfallIn Kubuntu that is.12:50
mornfallJontheEchidna: I have a fix for #175540 ... I'm getting way too much spam about it... : - )12:52
mornfall(The bug is that RTTI does not work across shared object boundary, a pretty daft problem, really....)12:52
JontheEchidnamornfall: Yeah, I could prepare a fixed package for adept13:08
mornfallThe question is whether it makes any sense to do that.13:09
JontheEchidnaI don't really like KPackageKit, and Adept is a solid package manager through and through. I imagine there would still be some people who would prefer it over KPackageKit13:10
JontheEchidnaplus there are one or two other minor issues that we have patches for13:10
mornfallOk, I'll see if I can get the f-ing RTTI to cooperate.13:11
JontheEchidna("Fail" isn't colored red in download view, an unstranslatable string or two)13:11
Gonmmm13:12
Gonpackage search in adept doesn't work like apt-cache search...13:12
mornfallIt's not supposed to.13:13
JontheEchidnaIt's really just a matter of the user using filters smartly. I have no trouble finding the package I want13:14
Gonie: I tiped "mysql" and I found 2-3 packages, without mysql-server13:15
mornfallWell, nothing's ever perfect.13:15
GonI search for postgres... same thing13:15

RiddellJontheEchidna: going to put it in revision control?17:26
JontheEchidnaI will probably either put it in bzr, or KDE playground once I get commit access17:27
JontheEchidna(I applied yesterday, so that should be soonish)17:28
JontheEchidnaThe thing is that I doubt that it would ever get out of playground, since FolderView sorta does the same thing, and QuickAccess implements a lot of stuff itself that Plasma does for the sake of effects17:29
JontheEchidnaSo it might just end up in bzr17:29
astrommeJontheEchidna: For me it took about 3-4 days17:29
JontheEchidnaI do like QuickAcces in a panel better than folderview in a panel, though :)17:32
JontheEchidnaWhoa, the newest QtCurve has XBar support (not compiled by default)17:35

ubuntu_I'm guessing that quite a few others do as well20:02
a|wenubuntu_: better that than missing some important apps completely due to the space limit20:02
apacheloggerLure: pling20:02
ubuntu_For someone installing the system for other people who might need docs would it make sense for there to be one package that installs all the docs for the standard apps that kubuntu ships20:03
ubuntu_That way you save space while still getting essential info across easily20:03
apacheloggerI think the dvd install will pull them in20:03
nixternalubuntu_: no it wouldn't, because if someone on gnome wanted kontact docs, they would get all docs20:03

JontheEchidnaAh, qtcurve possibly?22:11
josh-lJontheEchidna: you mean changing it to qtcurve?22:11

EagleScreenabrowser is free of copyright and registered trademarks and logos22:19
EagleScreendo dont need to accept any EAULA to use abrowser22:19
EagleScreenis the equivalent to iceweasel on Debian22:20
josh-lthe oxygen theme for firefox (at firefox addons) looks exactly like whatever jaunty beta uses for firefox, but makes my firefox much faster22:20
EagleScreenI am using gtk-qt-engine and I dont feel firefox (abrowser) to be slow22:21
josh-las i said i'm glad for you, biut i seriously do22:22
