JontheEchidnaWe should so use these for Karmic: http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php/Kubuntu+Oxygen+Splash+Screen?content=10573700:13
JontheEchidnaMaybe the doods at UDS could discuss that?00:14
neversfeldeJontheEchidna: nice :)00:19
neversfeldeKubuntu had always a special theme with KDE3, I love oxygen, but I think a bit of branding is not so bad00:24
neversfeldewas that discussed on UDS?00:24
JontheEchidnadunno00:29
JontheEchidnabut I think we can maintain upstream identity through artwork while still giving ourselves a bit of branding00:29
JontheEchidnasuch as through that start icon and splash screen00:29
neversfelde+100:30
neversfeldeI think we should also provide a custom wallpaper00:31
neversfeldeprobably a bluer one but similar to ubuntu gnome ;)00:32
nixternalI say we go brown!00:54
neversfeldeyeah, gnome is so blue in vanilla, so we should go brown/orange00:56
neversfeldeprobably Ubuntu can use our blue than :D00:58

KDeskHello, I was wondering if it is planned to include PulseAudio in Kubuntu in the near future?02:24
tsimpsongod I hope not02:24
KDesktsimpson: why?02:25
tsimpsonbecause there is a never-ending stream of complaints about it02:25
tsimpsonand I don't get why it's needed anyway02:25
JontheEchidnaimo pulseaudio is little benefit for the average user and one more layer in the pile of "things that can and probably will go wrong)02:26
KDeskBut why has Ubuntu pulseaudio? And fedora, opensuse, mandriva?02:27
tsimpsonprobably because Gnome has get to develop a smarter way to deal with sound02:29
KDeskThe first time I used PA in a distro installed by default it was in Ubuntu Hardy, it was bad, and full of problems. Some days ago I installed PA in Kubuntu and it works with out problems, like without it, but with the benefit of the easy of configuring a 5.1 channel sytem, sending sound via the network to another machine. I think PA is _now_ grate. It works, with many features, like any modens OS.02:33
KDesktsimpson: Mandriva, opensuse (don't know about fedora or others) have PA instaled by default with KDE desktop.02:35
JontheEchidnacoincidentially, they're the ones with the worst track record for working Amarok installs.02:36
JontheEchidnadue to combinations of the phonon gstreamer backend and PA02:36
JontheEchidnaor, I should say, amarok gets tons of bug reports caused by PA and phonon-gstreamer because Mandravia and openSUSE include it by default02:37
JontheEchidnato the point that they close bugs with PA and gstreamer stuff in the crash backtrace right out02:38
KDeskJontheEchidna: but it is possible to use xine as engine, an xine doens't have problems with PA.02:38
JontheEchidnaWhich is not to say that either distro is bad, but PA by default does cost them02:38
JontheEchidnagstreamer's not the only problem, there are plenty of PA crashes too02:38
KDeskAmarok 2 with phonon, and phonon wih xine and PA works with no problems. Why gstreamer?02:39
KDeskPA's version of jaunty is ok for me with 2 pcs.02:40
KDeskJontheEchidna: Why doesn't Ubuntu devs remove PA?02:40
KDeskfrom default install..02:40
* JontheEchidna shrugs02:40
JontheEchidnaPulseaudio devs like Pulseaudio I suppose02:41
KDeskJontheEchidna: Yea, but do they work with Ubuntu and not with Kubuntu? I mean why the Canonical devs of any devs from Ubuntu remove PA if that is so bad, or was, Iam sure it was rely bad.02:43
JontheEchidnaKubuntu doesn't have any devs that work with PulseAudio really, that's something you'd have to ask the Ubuntu guys02:44
KDeskHmm, sure they say it will work better or that is is right now not bad, bad if they use it, and many other distros, what are the advantages and disadvantages to use it. If more people use it, I supose it will get better.02:47
KDeskI think it is (when it works) something that is going to fix the linux audio problem. DRI2 and that new things are going to fix graphics, but the audio is so problematic. I was trying to configure a 5.1 sound system. I hate that, it is so comlicated, rely, and the audio quality at resampleing (I tihng it's dmix problem).02:49
KDeskKubuntu needs something new to fix the audio problem, I thought PA can do this, but I don't know. Let's hope that the solution (any) will come soon.02:52
vorianyoooo03:01
JontheEchidnakrazy is a tiny bit of a bitch to install03:17
JontheEchidnaturns out I needed libxml-libxml-perl instead of libxml-perl03:17
vorianare you sure you don't need libxml-libxml-libxml-perl-perl?03:19
JontheEchidnaI wouldn't be surprised :P03:19

ScottKJontheEchidna and neversfelde: We've discussed the question of branding a little bit at UDS.  One of the points that came up is that since we actually deviate less from upstream than other distros, we actually stand out.04:54
ScottKWe seem to have a reputation as the most 'pure' KDE distro out there and so we differentiate by doing less work.04:54
ScottKnixternal: So it's not even 6am here, but I'm up due to guess who's snoring ....04:55
nixternalhaha05:00
nixternalScottK: I did that on one day last UDS as well05:01
ScottKYeah.  I thought you'd like that.05:01
nixternalI was up at 5am, went to bed at like 2:3005:01
nixternalwalked over to starbucks and loaded up on red eyes05:01

nixternalto lazy to put it in vbox right now while I play around07:21
nixternalI will go there once I have an alpha of it, then I will use vbox and various resolutions to tweak it07:21
astrommenixternal: you could pair it with a modification of the "Glassified" splash screen07:21
astromme(kde-look.org)07:21
nixternalI am using air07:22
nixternalglassified was to much, glass07:22
astrommeiirc air doesn't have its own splash screen?07:22
nixternalair has a better opacity, and is similar to the old school kubuntu kdm login, which is what I am working towards with this07:22
astrommeI agree, and I'm using air too07:22
nixternalnope, I am making one :)07:22

JontheEchidnaor making a plasma-themed ubiquity interface?15:43

Riddell15:43 < JontheEchidna> A plasma-themed ubiquity would be teh awesomez. (Think krunner, it's not a plasmoid but uses plasma for theming15:49
shtylmank...I will need to look into that15:50
JontheEchidnaTaking a quick look, the krunner interface the user sees is a transparent kdialog with no window decoration or kdialog buttons, drawing the plasma widget background as its background15:50
shtylmanJontheEchidna: that may be an interesting path to take15:51
JontheEchidna    setAttribute(Qt::WA_TranslucentBackground);15:51
JontheEchidna    setButtons(0);15:51
shtylmanand I think it would increase the look by alot15:51
JontheEchidnayeah, me too15:52
JontheEchidnathen it uses a QPainter to paint the background as the Plasma widget background15:53
JontheEchidnathis should be quite feasible now that we have python plasma bindings15:53
shtylman:)15:53
ryanakcaJontheEchidna: Lovely, thanks16:10

Nightrosewhy not use that?16:26
ScottKvorian: To the extent microblogging is actually a good thing, sure.16:26
neversfeldeNightrose: the group?16:26
JontheEchidnaRiddell: since the openDesktop and microblogging plasmoid are in kdeplasma-addons they're already set to be part of the default install and we dont' have to do a thing :)16:26
Nightroseyes16:26
JontheEchidnaoh, but add them to the default desktop16:27
JontheEchidnaI see where you're going now16:27
JontheEchidnakarmic is starting to look pretty sweet16:27
vorianScottK: I rarely use it, but I do like following the KDE feed16:27
neversfeldewell, than possibly your new desktop greets you with "I hate !kubuntu" :D16:27
* ScottK is apparently too old and not getting it.16:28
Nightroseneversfelde: you can't do much about that with something you can't control ;-)16:28
neversfeldehehe16:28
Nightrosethat's the whole point of things like twitter16:28
Nightroseyou can't control them16:28
Nightrosethey control themself16:28

Riddellbeer to yuriy!16:29
ScottK\o/16:29
yuriywell, somewhat successfully. the button is fat now16:29
Nightrosekubotu: order beer for yuriy16:29
* kubotu gives yuriy a nice frosty mug of beer.16:29
yuriyOO.o doesn't have any standard size for icons16:29
Nightrosewhat ould be done is create a special kubuntu account on identi.ca and have someone feed that16:30
Nightroseit would have to be kept up to date though16:31
Riddellthere is a kubuntu group on identi.ca16:31
Nightroseyes I created it ;-)16:31
Nightrosebut as neversfelde said people could be greeted with "!kubuntu sucks" on their first run16:31
vorianKubuntu members could aggregate to the kubuntu account, right?16:32
vorianthat would keep it up to date16:32
Nightrosethe group has been fairly ok lately though16:32

smarterKlipper actions should not pop up when a URL is selected in Arora.16:50
smarterisn't that a Klipper setting?16:50
smarterit doesn't do that here at least16:50
Riddellsmarter: couldnae say, people were complaining about it16:50
Riddellbut it'll be a Klipper change somewhere16:50
Nightroseyes it is a setting in klipper16:51
neversfeldeArora is not able to import ssl root certs like that from cacert.org. That would be a major problem for me16:51
Nightrosefor each action you can define a list of windo titles it shouldn't pop up for16:51
Nightrosethat's why it doesn't pop up for konqueror and firefox for example16:51
smarteralso, what is baidu.com? :}16:51
Nightrosechinese search engine iirc16:51
neversfeldeIt is poor security practice, if you only ignore the warnings16:52
Riddellyuriy: "Change the Help -> Report Bug menu item to use Apport."  can you use apport to report a bug?16:53
yuriyRiddell: yes that's half of what it does16:53
yuriyit is supposed to be the correct way to report bugs in Ubuntu16:54
vorianis there a newer version of Arora that can be backported?16:54
yuriythey are trying to deter people from using the report bug form on launchpad manually16:54
Riddellyuriy: how do I do that?16:54
Nightrosevorian: there are nightly builds in a ppa - way too much missing still16:54
Nightrosetried it yesterday16:54
vorianah16:54
yuriyvorian: 0.7 is ~3 days old and we have a backport request16:54
vorianah oh ew16:55
smarter"Kubuntu ships with social applets by default, integrating services such as microblogging and Facebook into the desktop."16:55
smarterI hope I'll never see anything remotely related to Facebook on Kubuntu :S16:55
* vorian tests wrt jaunty16:55
yuriyRiddell: in a gnome app or a few others that were patched, go to help report a bug16:55
macoyuriy, i thought "ubuntu-bug" was supposed to be the correct way16:55
yuriyRiddell: there's also a command for it16:55
yuriyyeah that ^16:55
Nightrosesmarter: kopete has a facebook plugin now \o/16:55
smarterthis is madness :P16:56
Riddellyuriy: interesting?16:56
Nightroseat least the start of it16:56
NightroseRiddell: if you need testing in jaunty for that I'm all in16:56
Riddellsmarter: so it was you who broke Arora from logging into Facebook!16:56
smarter:P16:56
Nightrosehaha16:56
RiddellNightrose: for what?16:56
yuriyRiddell: sorry I thought it was clear what I was referring to during the kubuntu-qa meeting16:56
NightroseRiddell: facebook plugin for kopete16:57
RiddellNightrose: I'll let you know when I get packages16:57
Nightroseok16:58
Riddellyuriy: "Prior to release, consider keeping Apport crash handling for select applications."  how will those be chosen?  where's the code to decide which to use?16:58
yuriyRiddell: actually, I forgot to ask pitti about that, whether it's possible or reasonable16:59
Riddellyuriy: remove the "BoF agenda and discussion" session, anything in there should be in the body of the spec now16:59
Riddellyuriy: ok, ask pitti and update the spec as appropriate, then set it to Pending Approval in launchpad17:00
yuriyRiddell: during the meeting we said it would be nice to keep the reporting after release, but Ubuntu doesn't do that, so we said maybe we can just do certain packages if that is possible and decide later what those packages will be17:00
Riddellyes I mind that17:01
Riddellgood spec yuriy17:01
Riddellif anyone sees shtylman ask if he's going to write the https://blueprints.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/kubuntu-karmic-ubiquity spec17:02

quassel208So kde4.3 beta is removed for jaunty?20:49
Mamarokquassel208: it never was part of it20:56
Mamarokquassel208: there are packages in the experimental PPAs20:57
quassel208yes it was, standed in the news report, but i tried it but didnt work, and also I see kubuntu removed the source from the news20:57
Mamarokquassel208: read the topic in #kubuntu please20:58
quassel208hmm. try that source, but messed lot up ( made the same once from trunk myself )20:59
Mamarokquassel208: hence why we state explicitely that it should only be used by experienced users, don't expect any support for it by now21:00
quassel208hmm, but still I know that kde4.2.3 isnt that unstable, it are just packing problems21:00
Mamarokquassel208: you are mixing things, KDE 4.2.3 is a bugfix release of KDE 4.2.2, its *not* 4.321:01
Mamarokand those are different PPAs21:01
quassel208hmm indeed, I meant kde4.3 ( I try the repo, but its removed now from news )21:02
Mamarokquassel208: for good reasons, to avoid users to use them unless they are thorougly tested, and that needs time and manpower21:03
quassel208I have skills to test and fix, but most time I just go back to stable if doesnt work, its to much headache21:04
quassel208rather have the core gets better21:05

JontheEchidnanixternal: there are still packaging differences22:30
nixternaloh, "Debian patches up to the same version..." read that as "Debian packages up the same version"22:31
_StefanS_hey22:31
JontheEchidnaperhaps I chose my words poorly, heh22:31
_StefanS_I was wondering, how stable is that kde in karmic at the moment ?22:31
nixternalno, you chose the right words, I just can't read :)22:31
RiddellMamarok: I can poke our shipit person tomorrow if you remind me during working hours22:32
_StefanS_considering its a beta and all that, is it usable?22:32
JontheEchidnaI upgraded from jaunty + kde 4.3 yesterday or they day before and am satisfied with its stability22:33
_StefanS_JontheEchidna: I'm thinking about making a jump, because there's just too much wrong with my system :D22:35
nixternalJontheEchidna: help me understand this, the reason for this is because we haven't merged with Debian yet on this package?22:35
_StefanS_JontheEchidna: not that jaunty is bad, my installation is kinda screwed ..22:35
JontheEchidnathere is this slight problem where the scrollbars in kickoff being a slight red color instead of a slight blue color22:35
JontheEchidnanixternal: k3b 1.66 alpha2 fails without the svn snapshot, so I updated our packages to the svn snapshot and merged the packaging at the same time22:36
JontheEchidna*k3b fails to build22:36
nixternalrock on, is there any crack in this package at all?22:36
_StefanS_JontheEchidna: is karmic usable in general, what about powermanagement, does it work on laptops ?22:36
JontheEchidnanixternal: crack? Like the drug or just problems in general?22:37
JontheEchidna_StefanS_: I couldn't attest to its power management skills, since I don't own a laptop :(22:37
nixternalall the above :)22:37
JontheEchidnaheh22:38
nixternalJontheEchidna: such as, the .diff.gz doesn't apply as it is a ppa one and doesn't match the version in changelog? :)22:38
_StefanS_JontheEchidna: alright, I'm gonna test it on a different disk I think22:38
JontheEchidnanixternal: oh, you mean crack like that :D22:39
JontheEchidnaI squarely blame the gnome file dialog for being insane22:39

JontheEchidnajussi01: is the cursor now a perpetual busy cursor even after you close that dialog?22:44
nixternalwhy won't the patch apply cleanly?22:45
jussi01JontheEchidna: yes, and out of curiousity, why isnt the package for that included in kubuntu-restricted-extras?22:45
jussi01nixternal: you aint holdin your tongue right :P22:45
nixternalhaha, must be it!22:45
ScottKWhich package?22:46
JontheEchidnanixternal: for polkit-qt? Their patch updates polkit-qt to the same svn revision that we have22:46
JontheEchidnaperhaps we should just do a sync?22:46
JontheEchidnajussi01: dunno, I seem to have libmad0 installed too22:46
nixternalJontheEchidna: or update it in debian so they are good and then sync....but right now I want to know why this darn patch will apply22:48
JontheEchidnanixternal: debian's packages are good, so I suppose we could sync22:49
nixternalthat would be up to you sir22:49
nixternalwith a sync, ol' Riddell just has to push a button then :p22:50
JontheEchidnatrue22:50
