aleite@JontheEchid: I found the problem with the opengl lib00:29
=== ScottK2 is now known as ScottK
vorianeeeewwwwwwwwwwwww01:15
voriannhandler is gnoming it up on the planet01:15
JontheEchidnaI bet all the dudes in #ubuntu-devel were going "eww, JontheEchidna is KDEing up the planet with his silly weather wallpaper" :P01:17
vorianhaha01:17
seeleany idea why Login Manager in SYstem Settings opens in a new window? apparently it doesnt do that in trunk01:26
GonI just compile the port to KDE4 Konversation, I think is very good, I think that quassel was a very bad choice for jaunty01:27
seele1) konversation wasn't available when the decision needed to be made01:28
seele2) a lot of people are happy with quassel01:28
jjessegood evening back to my sound problem, when i boot from the kernel for 2.6.27-11 i have sound, but if i boot from kernel 2.6.28-11 i get no sound, any ideas?01:28
jjesse+1 to seele01:28
Gonquassel are beatiful, but doesn't have complete support for irc functions01:29
Gonex: doesn't have DCC01:29
Gon:(01:29
GonFurther, the "buffers" are very uncomfortable01:29
Gon:/01:30
jjesseGon: I actually have learned to enjoy how quassel is setup and how it works01:30
jjessehowever i bet that konverstation for kde4 will be eventually packaged if it isn't and available for install01:31
Gon:)01:31
vorianit will be backported01:31
GonI think Konversation is the best we could have an eventual 9.04.101:32
Gon:D01:32
vorianthere will be no 9.04.1, jaunty is not LTS01:33
Gon:(01:33
vorianthere will be backports available01:33
vorianand to be honest, quassel has my vote to remain the default irc client01:33
Gonwithout dcc?01:34
Gon:s01:34
vorianthat :s thingie crashed my system01:36
vorian:P01:36
GonI thought that the paradigm of kde4, was able to have non-castrated software as some other desktop manager whose icon is a foot01:37
GonxD01:37
ScottKGon: The main use case for the IRC client on CD is for user support.  DCC isn't needed for that.  Konversation is still around and can be used.01:43
ScottKI expect it will be an interesting discussion around the default for 9.10.01:44
Gonok01:44
ScottKSput: What are the odds of DCC support for 0.5?01:45
ScottKHe's one of the quassel devs.01:45
ScottKGon: One of the other advantages for us is that because Quassel is a relatively smaller project being the default client for Kubuntu is a big deal for them.  They are very responsive when we have suggestions/feedback.01:46
GonKonversation was already known and easy to use01:47
ScottKBut not KDE4.01:48
Gon:s01:48
ScottKAlthough we didn't quite make it, we made the decision as part of a feature goal for Jaunty to have only KDE4 apps on the CD.01:48
ScottKIIRC we got everything except OOo integration to KDE4.01:49
JontheEchidnaseele: The Login Manager needs root permissions. If we didn't open it in a separate window with admin permissions it wouldn't work at all :(01:52
JontheEchidnaK3b is the only other thing that isnt' KDE401:53
JontheEchidnathe frustrating thing is that it was *almost* good enough, but burning CD/DVD images was busted01:54
JontheEchidnaso when I do apt-cache rdepends kdelibs4c2a, adept-manager show up even though I've not had that package installed since hardy01:56
JontheEchidnais there any way to get rid of it?01:56

vorianHA!02:00
vorian:/02:00
vorianactually, it's not so funny02:00
JontheEchidnablasphemy! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Kubuntuoffice.png02:02

voriansheesh, we have 4.2.3 next week eh?02:04
vorianand 4.3 beta the following week02:04
JontheEchidnayep02:04
vorianawesome02:04
JontheEchidnawe're gonna wanna get some merges in before then though...02:05
JontheEchidnamy poor CPU02:05
vorianeeew02:05
vorianwhy not wait till post 4.2.3 to merge, then karmic should be good to go02:06
JontheEchidnabefore KDE 4.3 anything02:07
JontheEchidnais what I meant to say02:07
vorianah, good :)02:07
JontheEchidnaoh02:07
JontheEchidnaalso come to think of it I made kdeplasma-addons depend on kdewallpapers and kdebase-workspace-wallpapers in trunk :D02:07
vorianha!02:08
JontheEchidnanot a hard dependency, but you'll get a lot of  not weather wallpapes if you don't have those02:08
vorianactually, why even bother with merging 4.2* in karmic? why not just jump into 4.3?02:08
JontheEchidnayou mean, wait for 4.3 of some sort to hit debian, then merge?\02:09
vorianyes02:09
JontheEchidnahmm02:09
JontheEchidnaI like the sound of that02:09
voriansince 4.3 will be the focus etc... :)02:09
JontheEchidnathat way we don't have to worry so much about rebuilding 40 times for .install changes02:09
vorianright-o02:10
JontheEchidnawhich is why it took us 2 weeks to do this last time02:10
vorianhaha02:10
JontheEchidnawe were a week late, if I remember02:11
JontheEchidnaand it was my first time as ninja coordinator02:11

GonWTF!02:11
jjesseback to that wikpedia picture, whose desktop is that?  doesn't look at all like mine02:13
JontheEchidnaIt's definitely not default02:14
ScottKI'd merge 4.2.2 (since we know it's the same version), skip 4.2.3 for Karmic (just jaunty-proposed), and go straight to the 4.3 beta in Karmic.02:14
nixternalwhy do puppies decide to go to the bathroom right under the computer desk?02:14
voriancuz it's warm and safe02:14
JontheEchidnaI should post my desktop w/ the Dark Knight skydome on wikipedia :D02:15

vorianah, ok :)02:17
JontheEchidnavorian: which plasma theme is that?02:17
JontheEchidnareminds me of KDE 4.0 in a good way02:17
vorianoxyglass more02:17
* JontheEchidna always did like that glass ring around the plasmoids in 4.002:17
vorianyes!02:17
vorianthat was the best02:18
jjesseoxyglass?02:18
vorianalthough, the kewlness on the kicker is the stasks plasmoid02:18

jjesseooo oxyglass looks nice :)02:19
vorianit's 'oxyglass more'02:19
Gonwithout compositing looks nice too02:19
vorianthere are like 3 oxyglass themes iirc02:19
* vorian steals cake whilst everyone is looking for new themes02:20
jjesseis there a widget that shows my tasks from kontact?02:26
nixternalstasks needs to fix its memory leaks before I try it again02:32
nixternalit was the reason my laptop kept locking up02:32

joshjtlhey folks... anyone recommend a tag editor for audio files? (kde4 prefferably)02:35
ScottKvorian: Great post.  Thanks.02:41
vorianno man, thank you02:41
Gona question...02:42
Gonwhy kdepimlibs5-dev has libboost as dependency?02:43
ScottKseele: Are you connected with http://www.wouwlabs.com/blogs/anniec/?p=30 project at all?02:43
ScottKGon: Because kdepimlibs builds against boost so you'll want those headers available too.02:43
Gon:o02:44
nhandlervorian: Sorry about the gnome script, but I needed something to make my gnome desktop more useful while restricted to an ubuntu live cd02:57
ScottKI totally can't believe no one has mentioned that the comics widget has lolcats now.03:02
ScottKOK, so here's an interesting problem ....  When I click on the K menu, only the bottom millimeter or two and a little square in the upper right/left corner appears.  I tried shutdown/restart and it's still there.03:11
Sir-Gontheme fail?03:17
ScottKSorted it.03:21

blizzzmh, again flash videos do lack sound :(07:31
nukem2525is there going to be an upgrade path between 8.04 w/ KDE3 and 9.04 w/ KDE3 or will it require a fresh install?07:33
a|wenkb9vqf: i think you're the only one able to answer that one ^^07:46
a|wennukem2525: he doesn't seem to be around atm. I think you'll have to wait till he shows up08:02
* a|wen hugs vorian08:03
a|wengreat post :)08:03
nukem2525any idea about his normal hours?08:03
tsimpsonI would guess that it would require a patched dist-upgrade tool to go from 8.04 -> 9.0408:10
nukem2525what are the odds of one being made availible?08:11
tsimpsondepends on how many people know how to do it and how long that'll take to make08:11
tsimpsonit'd be a little complex because it'd need to know the package translation path08:12
tsimpsonso (some-kde-package) -> (some-kde-package)-kde308:12
tsimpsonbut I don't know enough about the remix to say for sure how easy/difficult that'd be08:13
nukem2525Ill probably end up doing a fresh install anyway08:13
nukem2525I messed up a couple things im to lazy to fix08:13
nukem2525now I just need to decide whether im willing to try KDE4 again08:14
nukem2525or not08:14
a|wennukem2525: when was the last time you tried it?08:16
nukem2525i tried 4.0 and 4.108:16
a|wennukem2525: a great deal has happened till 4.2 ... anything particularly problematic?08:17
nukem2525the network manager blew up several times08:18
nukem2525random X crashes08:18
a|wendid you try the intrepid release; or the 4.0.0 / 4.1.0 versions?08:19
nukem25258.1008:19
nukem2525when it first released it had 4.0 right?08:19
a|wennukem2525: it had 4.1.2 upon release08:20
a|wenit's at 4.1.4 now08:20
nukem2525kk, I tried that as well as the 8.04 KDE4 remix08:20
a|wennukem2525: okay ... the hardy remix cd was really only for early adopters; after that kde4 has matured a lot08:21
a|wennukem2525: you can always give it a try ... live-cd's are a great invention in that regarg08:22
nukem2525ya I knew when I went in that the remix wouldn't be very stable but I was a bit disappointed after I had so many issues with 8.1008:22
nukem2525I had it on 2 machines and both messed up pretty bad08:24
a|wenit has been working out great for me ... no problems with crashes or anything08:24
a|wenbut with kde 4.2.2 i'd say that kde is now ready for everybody08:25
nukem2525Ill give it another shot but the only thing im looking for that KDE3 doesn't provide is Amarok 208:27
a|wenyeah; amarok2 is great :)08:30
nukem2525Ive been banging my head against the desk trying to compile it on my mac since it came out08:31
a|wenthat does also sound like a challenge08:33
nukem2525Ive talked to the macports maintainer about updating the port but they are still using an old version08:34
nukem2525so Ive been trying to do it myself08:34
a|wenwhat i've heard, kde compiling on mac should still be a lot of tweaked, just to get something out of it08:36
nukem2525I had no problem with KDE, I used macports to install 4.208:37
a|wenwhen it is in macports it's another story08:40
* a|wen just talked to a friend that has upgraded from 8.10 to 9.04 ... everything just went smooth for her!09:45
rickspencer3a|wen: sweet!09:51
a|wenit looks good09:51
a|wenomg! what a speed-gain you can have in some of the apps by using "--graphicssytem raster"11:14
ryanakcanixternal: How did help.kubuntu.org go? Anything left to do?11:20
ScottKAll the upgrades have gone smoothly here, including one 8.04 to 9.0411:40
Riddellawooga11:41
Tm_Thooray (:11:43
ScottKRiddell: One nit that doesn't appear to hurt anything is that the 8.04 -> 9.04 upgrade ended up with guidance-power-manager installed.11:44
ScottKSomeone is working on a release announcement for Kubuntu, right? claydoh?11:54
RiddellScottK: hrm, that should be removed in the final upgrade stage12:00
Riddellrelease announcement is mostly https://wiki.kubuntu.org/JauntyJackalope/RC/Kubuntu turned into html for kubuntu.org12:00
ScottKRiddell: Maybe it was and I missed it.  I'll double check next time I have access to the machine.12:00
RiddellI'm about to do upgrade tests too12:00
ScottKRiddell: We just need to settle on a URL and make sure slangasek has it to include in his announcement.12:01
ScottKAh. I see you already took care of it.12:01
Riddellthe easy part I did, take more effort to actually write the html :)12:02
ScottKWell you also took care of the part it's impossible to fix after the fact.12:03

rmrfslashHey guys. I was on earlier to ask whether or not there would be a radeonhd driver update between 9.04 and 9.10. I was told by someone (I forgot whom) that "patches will be applied but complete upgrades were unlikely". Obviously, I was disheartened a little as the radeonhd 1.2.5 supposedly fixes some resume issues. Now, after looking around, I found this page: https://launchpad.net/~tormodvolden/+a20:21
rmrfslashrchive/ppa20:21
claydohyup, those are testing packages , won't be official20:22
claydohbut helpful for those who want/need to be on the edge :)20:23
rmrfslashOn this guys page, there is a deb for radeonhd 1.2.5 for Jaunty and was published 22 hours ago. I installed it, it at least doesn't break things and Xorg.0.log shows that RADEONHD is version 1.2.5. Does tis mean there is a update in the works for Jaunty?20:24
claydohno20:24

rmrfslashyeah, it works... I have yet to see if it'll resume properly. Though this version was supposed to address that specifically (among other things).20:27

kb9vqfnukem2525: Not sure if you're still around, but here's what you can do: 1. Copy your ~/.kde folder to ~/.kde3  2. Do the upgrade normally  3. Install kubuntu-desktop-kde3 4. Remove the KDE4 packages that got installed in the upgrade (optional)20:33

jefferaiapachelogger: ping20:45
apacheloggerjefferai: pong20:45
jefferaihey, so in your release script20:45
jefferaiyou know how you append the include directives for po and doc at the end of CMakeLists.txt?20:45
jefferaihow easy it is to substitute those directives for lines already in the CMakeLists.txt file?20:46
apacheloggerjefferai: easy enough20:47
apacheloggerjust need to wrap it in an if($lines present)20:47
jefferainah, don't20:47
jefferaiI'll just put in a comment like this:20:48
jefferai#DOC_INCLUDE20:48
jefferai#PO_INCLUDE20:48
jefferaiand replace those with add_subdirectory(doc), etc.20:48
jefferaidoes that sound easy enough?20:48
apacheloggerjefferai: the problem is that you don't want to use kde's macro for optional sub dir?20:49
jefferaiwell, is there a point?20:49
jefferaiI guess that's even better20:50
apacheloggerone might not want to install docs or po ... but especially docs if they are big20:50
jefferaiok20:50
jefferaiI'll do that20:50
jefferaiI'll make them toggleable20:50
jefferaiand you can take it out of the release script entirely20:50
apacheloggerjefferai: I am really missing context here ... are we talking about amarok or what?20:51
jefferaiyep20:51
apacheloggerwell, it needs to stay in the script20:51
jefferaiwhy?20:51
apacheloggernot only amarok uses that script :P20:51
jefferaiOK, then, it needs to not go at the end of the file20:52
jefferaiand/or not use the KDE optional macros20:52
apacheloggerjefferai: doesn't amarok include KDE's macros?20:52
jefferaitake a look at the CMakeLists.txt file20:52
apacheloggerokies20:52
jefferainote that KDE deps are only in the WITH_PLAYER section20:53
jefferaiif you're building the utilities, there are no KDE dependencies20:53
apacheloggerahhhhh20:53
jefferaiexcept for the KDE macros you introduced with the release script, that is :-)20:53
apacheloggerjefferai: both the po and the docs need KDE macros anyway20:53
jefferaiexactly...so the release script should probably put those macro calls in the WITH_PLAYER section20:53
jefferaiby substituting in for a known value20:54
jefferaithat sound doable?20:55
apacheloggeraye20:55
apacheloggersec20:55
jefferaik20:55
apacheloggerthe l10n stuff is 100% hack21:11
apacheloggergood thing the refactored version comes with a lot better design21:11
jefferaiapachelogger: so should I modify anything in the Amarok CMakeLists?21:13
apacheloggerjefferai: add the comments you mentioned earlier21:13
jefferaiany specific names?21:13
jefferaiapachelogger: I'll call them DOC_SUBDIR and PO_SUBDIR21:14
jefferaiapachelogger: here's what I put into CMakeLists.txt21:15
jefferai    #Do not remove or modify these.  The release script substitutes in for these21:15
jefferai    #comments as appropriate.21:15
jefferai    #DOC_SUBDIR21:15
jefferai    #PO_SUBDIR21:15
apacheloggermeh21:17
apacheloggerI already made the script use _INCLUDE :P21:17
apacheloggerpushy pushy21:18
jefferaican you change it?21:18
jefferaiit makes more sense to put SUBDIR21:18
jefferaiSorry21:19
apacheloggerhttps://code.edge.launchpad.net/~apachelogger/+junk/extragear-release-script21:19
apacheloggerr38 and r39 if you want to apply it manually21:19
jefferaiapply what?21:20
apacheloggerthe changes21:20
jefferaito where?21:20
apacheloggeryour source copy21:20
jefferainope21:20
jefferai:-)21:20
apacheloggeryou never know21:20
jefferainot here21:20
jefferaibut anyways21:20
jefferaichanges in CMakeLists.txt in r95732721:20
apacheloggerhm21:23
apacheloggerthat looks broken to me21:24
apacheloggerjefferai: can you swap the order21:25
apacheloggerpo currently pulls in the include, if doc is add before the include it probably will make cmake cry21:25
apacheloggerjefferai: or add another comment21:26
apachelogger#SUBDIR_INCLUDE21:26
jefferaiok21:26
jefferaiwait what?21:26
jefferaiI swapped the order21:27
apacheloggerok, works as well21:27
apacheloggerworks like a charm21:28

Tscheesyi'll create a new one22:20
Riddellyou need to create one22:20
JontheEchidnawe don't support gutsy -> jaunty updates, do we?22:25
JontheEchidnayou have to upgrade to hardy first22:25
dtchenyou're skipping intrepid as a required step for hardy->jaunty?22:26
JontheEchidnawe do support hardy -> jaunty22:26
JontheEchidnain Kubuntu at least22:26
JontheEchidnabut am I correct in assuming that gutsy -> jaunty is completely unsupported?22:27
dtchenok, then yes, you are correct22:27

apacheloggerwe need a QA supervisor dood23:00
JontheEchidnaWhat would this dood do?23:01
Tscheesyweight Bug-Reports..23:02
JontheEchidnatriagers weigh bug reports, technically23:04
apacheloggerassign QA tasks and spend most of his time doing QA23:04
apacheloggerJontheEchidna: also, technically the triager might do that, but most of the time they will be wrong anyway, unless triager == developer in which case it is assumable that they actually rate the impact of an issue properly23:06
apacheloggerwell, if they understand the problem at least ;-)23:06
JontheEchidnain other words, a triager like me? :P23:06
davmor2Tscheesy: why did you file your kubuntu issue against ubuntu dvd?  and you've listed bug 1,2,3 on lp as bugs rather then the lp bug number for your issues23:06
ubottuhttps://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1 (Timeout)23:06

apacheloggerin a more organized matter that is of course23:09
Tscheesydavmor2 : cann you wipe it out? i'll write it new tomorrow23:09
davmor2Tscheesy: It should of been filed again Kubuntu Dvd.  And where it says bug you put in the lp bug number of the issue for future reference :)23:09
davmor2Tscheesy: I can't but I know a man that can23:10
Tscheesyok :( - good23:10

JontheEchidnaAlt+Left is untranslated for me in spanish, but everything else looks ok23:15
apacheloggerJontheEchidna: yes23:16
apacheloggerJontheEchidna: though the locale kcm is not translated anyway23:17
apacheloggerit will default to en_US unless the KDE specific setting is set23:17
apacheloggerwhich should probably be changed23:17
apacheloggeractually23:17
JontheEchidnalooks pretty spanish here to me23:17
apacheloggerthe whole language setting there is worth a load of nothing23:17
apacheloggerJontheEchidna: only if set through the kcm23:17
apacheloggeryour testcase is flawed23:17
apacheloggerI am wondering if rosetta broke the dolphin strings though23:18
JontheEchidnaso if Ihave es set as your lang at install time, I'd see untransalted strings too?23:18
apacheloggeraye23:18
apacheloggerJontheEchidna: just use language-selector to change the system language and nuke Language(s)= from kdeglobals23:19
apacheloggeror create a new user instead of the latter23:19
JontheEchidnaugh, qt-language-selector was never renamed language-selector-kde23:21
Tscheesydavmor2 : changed to a (hopefully) tmp state :/23:22
JontheEchidnaapachelogger: is the trash kcm also untranslated when accessed from konqueror?23:24
apacheloggeryes, no, kinda23:25
apacheloggerthe item itself is named properly (desktop file??) but the days thingy is still there23:25
JontheEchidnahmmmmm23:25
apachelogger... I think days is actually a kdelibs termy23:25
JontheEchidnathey both use the same kcm, I wonder why that's happening23:26
JontheEchidnaoh23:27
JontheEchidna+    // Trash23:27
JontheEchidna+    TrashSettingsPage* trashSettingsPage = new TrashSettingsPage(this);23:27
JontheEchidna+    KPageWidgetItem* trashSettingsFrame = addPage(trashSettingsPage,23:27
JontheEchidna+                                                   i18nc("@title:group", "Trash"));23:27
JontheEchidnaI guess it didn't get translated in LP...23:27
apacheloggerthat is from use, isn't it?23:27
apachelogger*us23:27
JontheEchidnayeah, I backported it from trunk23:28
davmor2Tscheesy: that'll do for now :)23:28
apachelogger*nod*23:28
apacheloggerat this point I would not change any string at all since there is a high possibility it will not get translated23:28
JontheEchidnaIt should use the same KCM, but it uses its own string for adding it to dolphin's settings23:28
Tscheesydavmor2 : uf.. X) ..need my sleep now.. by all23:30
davmor2bye23:30
JontheEchidnaapachelogger: I did add this a month or few ago, but I guess this is also a consequence of us pissing off the german doods?23:30
JontheEchidna(our patches don't get translated)23:30
apacheloggerI think there are more languages affected than german really23:30
apacheloggerI just happen to know that we pissed them off pretty badly23:31
JontheEchidnaso the question becomes, how the  heck are we gonna get people to translate any of our patches at all in the future?23:32
* JontheEchidna goes to eat23:33
apacheloggera) talk to them23:33
apacheloggerb) help them23:33
apacheloggerc) beat up rosetta23:33
apacheloggerd) if rosetta doesn't die or become a lot better after beating - not using it23:33
apacheloggerall in all: ensure that translations never ever break for more than a couple of days, and certainly not while the translation related freezes are in effect23:34
JontheEchidnaI am thinking that somebody should probably blog about this either today or tomorrow23:36
* apachelogger will certainly rant about rosetta sometime soon23:37
davmor2Riddell: I'm off to bed now if there are any kub dvd test left in the morning I'll pick them up :)23:38
JontheEchidnaI mean, blog about the general state of translations for Kubuntu 9.04, dispell some common myths, lay out the plan for the future, etc23:39
* JontheEchidna really goes off to eat now23:39
apacheloggerwhat myths?23:40
apacheloggerkubuntu l10n is breaking every once in a while23:40
apacheloggerkubuntu l10n stays broken for at least a month23:40
apacheloggerkubuntu l10n is of so crappy quality it hurts to even think about it23:40
apacheloggernot to mention the interface that has to be used23:40
* apachelogger shudders23:40
JontheEchidnamainly that Kubuntu doesn't use upstream translations23:52
apacheloggerwe do23:53
JontheEchidnaexactly23:53
apacheloggerunless rosetta didn't import it23:53
JontheEchidnaright23:53
apacheloggeror exported it in a broken matter23:54
JontheEchidnathat too23:54
apacheloggeror some funky launchpad dood thought it would be a good idea to change the translation23:54
apacheloggermake it overriden for now and forever23:54
JontheEchidnashit, they can do that?23:54
apacheloggernow they can23:54
JontheEchidna:/23:54
JontheEchidnayeah, let's just mainly blast rosetta23:55
apacheloggerthing is there is no additional QA needed to do that23:55
apacheloggernor is there a way to make those changed translations be overridden by $nextupstream import23:55
JontheEchidnahow hard would it be to exclude rosetta entirely from the process?23:56
Riddellnot possible23:57
Riddelland I quite like being able to add strings23:58
apacheloggerRiddell: add strings?23:58
apachelogger+ possible, just not desirable23:58
JontheEchidnain theory (maybe?) we could just throw all the po(t)s in a bzr branch and do things like upstream23:59
