lex79JontheEchidna: qtcurve new upstream release, one a day :)00:09
neversfeldechanging fonts for gtk apps is borken here on a fresh karmic install00:10
shtylmanRiddell: want to add some ubiquity tasks to the todo?00:15
Riddellshtylman: oh aye00:18
JontheEchidnaneversfelde: oh? I'd be interested to hear about that00:33
Riddellshtylman: good00:43
Riddelldood, it works and it is the bling00:43
shtylman:)00:43
shtylmanI cleaned up the map a bit too..to make it match the gtk side00:43
shtylmanstill need to implement the keyboard display feature...00:44
RiddellI've not seen that00:46
shtylmanwhich part?00:46
Riddellkeyboard display00:46
shtylmanyea00:46
shtylmanits not done00:46
Riddellshtylman: what happens during the install, is it still full screen?00:46
shtylmanyep00:46
shtylmanit is ALWAYS full screen...but you have the option to minimize...00:47
shtylmanwhich reminds me..I need to remove that option from the install only choice00:47
shtylmanwhen not in a live session...00:47
Riddellhas seele looked at it at all?00:48
seelelooked at what?00:48
shtylmandunno00:49
macoseele: ubiquity00:49
seelethe new one? i didnt see it when i installed the latest karmic iso00:49
seeleit looked like the old one00:49
shtylmanyea...you have to get it separately...00:49
shtylmanit didn't make it to this iso00:50
seelehow do i get it separately? and can i run it in jaunty or karmic only?00:50
shtylmankarmic only00:50
shtylmanit needs latest pyqt stuff00:50
maco... i just...what? i just sent an identi.ca update with the plasmoid and it went to /dev/null instead00:50
maco*question*: does the microblogging plasmoid work for anybody?00:51
seelekdetwitter or choqok?00:51
seelekdetwitter seems to eat my RAMs so i never use it00:51
Riddellmicroblog plasmoid worked for me00:51
seelechoqok was buggy so i stopped using that00:52
seelemaco: use the jabber identi.ca thing00:52
seelethen you can just have a buddy in kopete to send messages to for updates00:52
macokdetwitter, i guess00:52
macowhatever the thing on the desktop is00:52
seeleand you can subscribe to them00:52
seeleshtylman: so how do i get ubiquity?00:52
shtylmanlp:~shtylman/ubiquity/kde_themeing00:53
seelelp:?00:53
macoi wonder if gwibber works again yet... i wanted to use the plasmoids so i can have 1 that's me and 1 that's ohio linuxfest...using gwibber id have to switch who i'm posting as constantly00:53
macoseele: bzr branch <what he said>00:53
seeleuh...00:53
seeleis there a package?00:53
shtylmanhmm... Riddell ^00:53
shtylmangot one in a ppa? ... I never put mine up...00:54
shtylmanseele: we shall see :)00:54
shtylmanI have some screenshots up at: http://shtylman.com/stuff/kubuntu_installer/version4/00:55
RiddellI don't have packages00:57
Riddellmaybe best if we just merge it and get it uploaded and have CDs to play with00:57
seelehmm.. why lowercase text in the progress labels?00:57
seelei think i would like to see better positional feedback on the current progress item too00:58
seeledamnit, really need a copy of photoshop00:59
shtylmanseele: lowercase text because it looks nice... :) doesn't make anything stand out too much01:01
shtylmanseele: what do you mean by positional feedback?01:01
dtchengit send-pack kernel.ubuntu.com:/srv/kernel.ubuntu.com/git/dtchen/ubuntu-karmic.git lp39805901:01
dtchenbah, sorry01:02
seeleshtylman: you are using color to indicate which part of the process the user is on, imo that's not strong enough01:02
shtylman:)01:02
JontheEchidnaThe "Kubuntu Karmic" in the top left corner should eventually say "Kubuntu 9.10" since we have a policy against not exposing the codename to the poor end users ;-P01:02
seeleand i dunno if the lowercase text looks nice, especially when the matching label in the content window is in uppercase01:02
shtylmanJontheEchidna: really? did...know that... :(01:02
seelethey would have to match, but then it doesnt really fit with the rest of the text. it is a nice device, but i dont think it should be used here01:03
JontheEchidnashtylman: no biggie. I must admin it looks nice with karmic there01:03
shtylmanseele: I can look at underline or something like that...but I do understand the accessibility concern...01:03
seeleshtylman: i'm in the process of mocking up something01:03
shtylmank01:03
seeleunderlines are bad because they confuse users with web stuff01:03
JontheEchidna*admit01:03
shtylmank01:03
seeleshtylman: "Partition" should probably be "Hard Disks" or omething else non-technical01:05
* shtylman personally hates it when people assume normal users can't be bothered to learn some common terms and understand what they mean01:06
seele1) it is inaccurate because you might not need to partition anything01:06
seele2) depending on what option you select, you might not even see the word partition01:07
seele3) why burden the user with becoming an expert in computing if all they want to do is look at facebook?01:07
shtylmanby using something *non -technical* we keep users in the dark forever...that being said... I just sorta picked partition...for no real good reason..01:07
seelehow is it the dark if they never need it?01:08
seelewhy does the user need to know how the computer works? they dont. they just need to use it01:08
shtylmanbut hard-disk doesn't really say anything to me either really...01:08
seelethen think of something better, but partition is not accurate and not appropriate01:08
shtylmanbut I will change it to whatever yall find appropriate :)01:08
JontheEchidna"Installation Setup" perhaps?01:08
shtylmantoo long01:08
JontheEchidna"Setup" :P01:09
seelesome of these things are going to translate pretty long01:09
seeleor Disk Setup or something01:09
shtylmanyea...but for the general case (of english) that one is really long01:09
shtylmanI like disk setup01:09
shtylman:)01:09
shtylmanI like disk setup alot :)01:10
macome too01:10
macowas about to type it as i read backscroll01:10
seelehmm.. also.. i really don't like using Info, it looks unprofessional01:11
seelewhat about User Details?01:11
shtylmanyea...possibly...01:13
shtylmaninfo just makes it more...informal...more...social :)01:13
* shtylman found a 59 page paper about the evolution of c++ by Bjarne ... starts reading...01:14
maco*snicker*01:14
macoseele "not professional! do not want!" shtylman "not professional! yay!"01:14
shtylman:)01:14
shtylmanto each his own01:14
seeleshtylman: http://imagebin.ca/view/FziY62Kl.html01:32
seelebut it obviously needs nuno or someone to paint it01:32
seeleso.. notable features01:32
shtylmanseele: I might be able to just extend the current theme and center *whiter* area around the label..01:32
seelepreviously visited sections are smaller and lighter color font, double coded01:33
* shtylman will need to think about it a bit...01:33
seelecurrent section has matching background to content area, and no border seperating it01:33
shtylmanI would not make them smaller01:33
shtylmanit feels unnatural to me ... at least01:33
shtylmanbut go on..01:33
seelealso, usually you like the best option to be the one on the bottom left corner01:33
shtylmank01:33
seelein a wizard that would be forward progress01:33
shtylman(buttons are a carry onver from previous installer layout...but I will change that)01:34
shtylmanI agree :)01:34
seeleprevious sections need some type of indicator that they were visited and completed, if not font treatment then maybe a check mark or something01:34
shtylmancheck mark sounds a bit better..changing font size I would avoid...01:35
shtylmanit will cause the other labels to move up cause the ui will get layed out again01:35
shtylmanand other things might shift...01:35
shtylmanwill cause confusion01:35
seelecant you set the text box to fixed or relative height?01:35
seeleor statically place them?01:36
shtylmanstatically placed = 1990's layouts01:36
seelehmm.. could you do the layout in html? then you could use relative sizes01:36
shtylmanfixed height is better..but then might have problems with other languages01:36
shtylmanI would strongly suggest looking at checkmarks first01:36
shtylmannope..can't do it in html01:36
* seele shrugs01:36
* shtylman has limitations... not saying it all isn't possible...just that with the time constrains ;)01:37
shtylman*constraints01:37
shtylmanwould not be advisible01:37
seelewell whatever you can do, but positional feedback is strongly advised01:38
shtylmank01:38
seeleAND FIX THOSE LOWERCASE LABELS!!!!01:38
* seele shakes her finger at shtylman 01:38
shtylman:(01:38
* seele pats shtylman on the head01:38
shtylmanbut they look so ... soo... web 2.0 ish01:38
shtylmanbut ok.. will fix01:38
seeleaaaaaahhh!!01:38
seeleyou've been reading too much smashingmagazine01:39
shtylmanahahah01:39
shtylmanseele: http://imagebin.ca/view/TUKIS2.html01:53
shtylmanjust a quick workup on the "tab"01:53
shtylmanI even kinda like how the text got pulled in a bit01:56
shtylmanreally makes the current entry stand out...01:56
=== m4v_ is now known as m4v
seeleshtylman: yes, much better. thanks02:05
shtylman:)02:05
macoseele: did 9.04 have a more direct way to add launchers to the desktop than 9.10? im walking a new user through it and he said he has right click -> "add link to application" but on 9.10 all i can find to do it is to add a quicklaunch, drag the quicklaunch to the desktop, then configure it02:12
seelemaco: no idea, i dont think i've ever done that02:14
macowell if he's right, then im against whatever change got rid of making that obvious02:14
macoalso, i think kickoff should be exposed in the "add widget" thing as something other than "application launcher" because that sounds like "add a button for firefox"02:15
ryanakcaneversfelde: I'm going to bed, but pong02:57
nhandlerI just noticed, why don't we have an rss feed for kubuntu.org that we can put on the Planet?03:14
voriansure03:35
ScottKbirthdaylogger: akonadiconsole should either not be in the default install or not be in the development section of the menu.  Pick one.  I don't care which.06:03
ScottKIt'd be nice if some MOTU would review/upload http://revu.ubuntuwire.com/p/xz-utils so we can get to work on getting lzma support in ark.06:07
ScottKnixternal: We do use UNRELEASED in bzr if something isn't to be uploaded right away.06:10
macowell Riddell merged it in the meantime06:22
macoScottK: do you know what the proper thing to request merges to are?06:22
ScottKA ping here with a link to your branch works.06:23
ScottKThe merge request thingy notifies appropriate people too.06:23
ScottKmaco: Please get yourself made a Kubuntu member very soon so you can just committ to bzr.06:24
macoRiddell said ~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/hardy/sudo/hardy-proposed wasn't something he could merge and upload to, he had to branch it then make a source package and upload as normal06:24
macobut i thought it was supposed to get easier...where sponsor folk could merge it to whats released and tell it to rebuild with that06:25
macoScottK: how come kubuntu members has a bzr and ubuntu-members doesn't?06:25
ScottKBecause we decided to do it this way and they didn't?06:26
macohehe ok06:26
ScottKYou asked.06:33
ScottKmaco: The full stuff with uploads based on bzr isn't ready yet.06:33
ScottKWe're still using our bzr repos of just the debian dirs.06:33
macoah so its planned but WIP?06:36
macoi dont remember http://blogs.computerworld.com/ubuntu_to_make_linux_application_installation_idiot_proof at UDS06:38
ScottKYes.06:39
ScottKmaco: It was discussed.06:40
* ScottK didn't pay attention since it sounded Gnomish.06:40
macoheh probably what i did as well06:41
* ScottK declares it bedtime.06:42
macoditto. gotta catch the train in 4 hours06:43

RiddellI'll announce12:17

CIA-31Kubuntu: apachelogger * r9 kdepim-runtime/debian/ (5 files in 2 dirs):12:20

apacheloggerfrom the CIA obviously :P12:25
apacheloggerRiddell: I added it, though I find the concept of bzr-to-cia kinda weird12:25
Riddellwhy?12:26
Riddellit needs setup per machine which is a hassle12:26

apacheloggerper branch12:26
apacheloggerwhich is even more of a hassle12:27
Riddellmmm12:28
* apachelogger thinks someone should fix the nm applet :|12:32
Mamarokis there a chance to have an installable kde-devel package for 4.3? It still is held back in RC312:33
Riddellneversfelde: fancy taking that on? ^^12:35
Riddellshtylman: shall we get your code merged?12:35
Riddellshtylman: it struck me we should look at the accessibility side, that can often suffer when you use custom colours and graphics for widgets12:36
neversfeldeRiddell: I have to go out for a few hours, but will have a look at it after I return12:37
Riddellaww, agateau left just as I was causing his stuff to crash12:55
neversfeldeRiddell: was a minor issue. I uploaded a fixed meta-kde package to ninjas, because there is no bzr branch12:58
Riddellgroovy, copy it over to backports ppa when you think it's good13:01
ScottKapachelogger: Sounds good.  I think settings catagory should also die.13:17
JontheEchidnaneversfelde: QtCurve gets its fonts from KDE, so you may have a bit of trouble there13:22
neversfeldeMamarok: you are on Jaunty?13:24
neversfeldeJontheEchidna: changing fonts for KDE works without problems13:24
ryanakcanhandler: We do have an RSS feed, we just need to edit the planet configs...13:24
nhandlerryanakca: Ok, I must have missed it. Is there a reason it never got on the Planet? If not, lets add it :)13:25
neversfeldeJontheEchidna: but changing them one time and back solved the problem with gtk apps. Weird.13:25
ryanakcanhandler: Nope, nobody ever got around to it. Did you want to do it or shall I?13:25
nhandlerryanakca: I can take care of it.13:25
ryanakcanhandler: Lovely, thanks13:26
JontheEchidnaneversfelde: it might be wise, that when QtCurve is set, to tell users that QtCurve uses the KDE fonts. what do you think?13:26
neversfeldeyes, a good idea13:27
JontheEchidnaapachelogger: I'm going to push 0.5.1 today after I implement ^13:28
neversfeldeMamarok: I have to go. Would you test installing kde-devel from the staging ppa, if you are on Jaunty. Thanks.13:28
Mamarokneversfelde: ok, will do :)13:29
nhandlerryanakca: Do we have any decent Kubuntu logo that can be used as the hackergotchi?13:37

EagleScreengoing for launch, see u later14:44
apacheloggerScottK: the only other option is qmmp, which is cool and got all the features you want but that winamp-clone-interface is just horrible14:45
apacheloggerjuk just needs some config changes to be half-way decent14:45
nhandlerapachelogger: It is blurry, I was wondering if we had anything else, otherwise I guess we can use it14:45
apachelogger+ it doesn't crash, eat your mem and updates it's database properly14:46

ScottKapachelogger: I'm not at all an expert on the media player stuff, so whatever everyone else thinks, I'm good with.14:46

Riddellapachelogger: Tonio_ was looking at YANIHP for music player on netbook14:49
Riddellthe Amarok people seem to think it's entirely suited to netbooks too14:50
yuriywhoa what's going on? replacing amarok?14:50
apacheloggerwell, we can give YANIHP a shot14:51
apacheloggerRiddell: the name is quite a PITA though14:51
Riddelltrue14:52
Riddellyuriy: for Netbook possibly14:52
yuriyany strong reason to? I think it'd be a big loss even for netbooks14:52
Tonio_Riddell: yup, I recently tested, but it's not polished enough for integration...14:52
Tonio_I tried to patch a bit, but there's too much to do14:53
RiddellEagleScreen: kdepim-runtime retrying, kdebase-workspace should be in though14:53
yuriyi would say a default configuration without the context view would be good though for netbooks14:53
ScottKLet's try Juk with apachelogger's config magic applied and see how it is.14:53
apacheloggerTonio_: also, it is entirely done by fred14:53
apacheloggerso from a maintenance point of view juk got a clear advantage there14:53
Tonio_apachelogger: yep14:53
apacheloggerjust by juk being in KDE svn it is ahead :D14:53
Riddellyuriy: long startup time, busy UI14:53
Tonio_my only concern with juk is that it won't work with m4a files... -> itunes and so on14:54
apacheloggerjust depend on taglib-extras14:54
Tonio_but for several reasons, YANIHP isn't ready, and fairly unmaintained14:54
apacheloggerunless juk blacklists m4a manually, which would need to be patched14:54
Tonio_apachelogger: nope that's on the code14:54
apacheloggerTonio_: reading should all be done by taglib, shouldn't it?14:55
Tonio_apachelogger: unfortunatelly no14:55
apacheloggerso what is in the code?14:55
Tonio_apachelogger: there's some loop to parse using taglib, for mp3 files and so on14:55
Tonio_this code ain't there for m4a14:55
apacheloggerwell, just add it :P14:55
apacheloggertaglib still is doing most of the work14:56
Tonio_I started to write it, but that's well among what I can do with C++ :)14:56
Riddelljuk uses the same taglib as amarok14:56
Tonio_I could parse, and get a segfault14:56
Riddellalso same playing backend via phonon14:56
apacheloggerTonio_: that is something :)14:56
Tonio_Riddell: from what I've seen in the code, it's not that simple14:56
apacheloggeranyway, I find it quite weird that juk reimplements the same loop for every codec14:56
Tonio_Riddell: and probably patching juk would make more sense on that point14:56
apacheloggerkinda ... well ... eh ... bad design14:56
Tonio_apachelogger: I was talking about yanihp there14:57
Tonio_maybe patching juk for this purpose would be easier14:57
apacheloggertechnically there is no need for patching in juk14:57
Tonio_apachelogger: hum great then14:57
apacheloggerif juk does it like amarok it will just go through the collection folders and throw every file at taglib and see if the lib spits out anything useful14:57
apacheloggersimply put that is ;-)14:58
Tonio_then we should go for juk14:58
apacheloggerTonio_: do you have a m4a file for testing?14:58
Tonio_we still have to choose for an irc client14:58
* Tonio_ is all for konversation14:58
Tonio_apachelogger: I only have m4a files :)14:58
Tonio_lemme test14:58
apacheloggerTonio_: make sure taglib-extras is installed14:58
apacheloggerstandard taglib does not contain the plugins14:58
Tonio_apachelogger: yep14:58
Tonio_apachelogger: I know that :)14:59
apacheloggerjust making sure ;-)14:59
Tonio_apachelogger: nope, it will only find mp3 files :/15:00
apacheloggerthen it probably blacklists m4a15:00
Tonio_apachelogger: we have to look at the code on that point15:01
* apachelogger does the config right now15:01
apacheloggeroh dear, juk also uses this weird GUI config string like dolphin15:01
Tonio_apachelogger: we have to change the view by default too, to enable the artist/album thing15:01
Tonio_apachelogger: I'll fix kds15:01
apacheloggerknds for now15:02
apacheloggerartist album thing?15:02
ScottKTonio_: I agree that we should put the cahnges in knds for now.15:04
Tonio_ScottK: yup15:04

apacheloggerkk15:06
apacheloggerTonio_: ^ test15:07
apacheloggerTonio_: btw, we need to patch it to use $HOME/Music by default15:07
ScottKSomeone should arrange for usb-creator-kde to get promoted so we can seed it.15:08
Tonio_apachelogger: can be configured no need to patch15:08
apacheloggerTonio_: configured?15:08
Tonio_apachelogger: yep15:09
apacheloggerwhere?15:09
Tonio_hum, xdg folders will not help on that point :)15:09
apacheloggerright :P15:09
apacheloggerpatch!15:09
apacheloggerhm, the splash is quite ugly15:09
Tonio_apachelogger: hum, there's no way to edit the collection settings once set15:09
Tonio_so maybe better let the user decide where's his music no ?15:09
apacheloggerwell15:10
apacheloggerFile -> add folder15:10
Tonio_unless there is an editor for the collection (we can patch for that too)15:10
apacheloggernot quite obvious15:10
apacheloggeranyway15:10
apacheloggerwhat the patch should do:15:10
Tonio_apachelogger: that won't edit the default collection15:10
apacheloggerread the xdg thingy15:10
Tonio_and this one cannot be removed btw15:10
apacheloggerif dir exists? => add dir to folders list and make it unremovable (if possible) => show dialog so user can add more/other folders15:10
Tonio_apachelogger: I would patch to rename "add folder" to "edit collection"15:11
Tonio_because you can *remove* folders also :)15:11
Tonio_apachelogger: agree with the patch then15:11
apacheloggeradd/remove folder then15:11
Tonio_so writing the todo...15:11
apacheloggercause literally edit collection is something different15:11

Tonio_apachelogger: I have libtaglib-extra0 installed, and that didn't work for me15:56
apacheloggerTonio_: needs some patching15:56
apacheloggerthe tag read is indeed very weird code though15:57
Tonio_apachelogger: as I said :)15:57
apacheloggereasy enough to enhance fortunately15:57
Tonio_apachelogger: did you already patch ?15:57
apacheloggernope, hacked it up15:57
apacheloggerI'll diff in a minute15:57
Tonio_apachelogger: ok15:57
ScottKapachelogger: Can you review/upload http://revu.ubuntuwire.com/p/xz-utils15:57
Tonio_apachelogger: the problem is that there is no unified method for reading the tag depending the format15:58
Tonio_each algo uses different names for the album and so on15:58
Tonio_taglib is a mess, to be honnest15:58
Tonio_apachelogger: that's why despite there is a lib, there is some code to write in each app for each supported format :/15:58
apacheloggerScottK: within the next couple of minutes or hours?15:58
ScottKapachelogger: Hours is great.15:59
apacheloggerTonio_: taglib reads the tags, but the file detection part ought to be done in the app15:59
ScottKapachelogger: Then we need to find a minion to write the MIR.15:59
Tonio_apachelogger: when you say "hacked", you mean that you can now extract a patch from that or ?15:59
apacheloggerQuintasan_: wanna write a MIR? ;-)15:59
apacheloggerTonio_: pretty much15:59
apacheloggerand cleanup16:00
apacheloggerthe thing is, this stuff can actually go upstream16:00
Tonio_apachelogger: impressive... that fast !16:00
apacheloggersince taglib-extras is an lib anyway it just needs some if-ing and can go upstream16:00

Nightroseit completed ok16:13
Nightrosemight have migrated to akonadi but no idea16:14
apacheloggerTonio_: we probably should add the other stuff from taglib-extras as well16:14
Tonio_apachelogger: great16:14
Tonio_apachelogger: seems like it was a bit easier to patch than with yanihp :) you didn't have to parse the all tag tree thing16:15
apacheloggerOo16:15
Tonio_apachelogger: yep, that would be nice, and to also push upstream16:15
Tonio_I think Riddell is the key for that :)16:15
* apachelogger will just commit upstream when patch is generic enough :P16:16
