_Simeanyone, in KDE 4.3, is it meant to be possible to drag the progress notifications out onto the desktop?09:35
_Simemm... I expected a window. to the desktop does work though.09:36
Quintasananyone with karmic machine and radeon card?11:19
apacheloggernope11:24
a|wennot at the same time11:25
apacheloggera|wen: what do you think about removing the quickaccess plasmiod from the netbook default desktop?11:25
apacheloggerI don't think it's usefulness justifies the occupied space considering the netbook desktop got a quicklaunch link to dolphin + kde 4.3's folderview browsing capability11:26
a|wenapachelogger: might be a good way to gain some space ... it is a bit annoying as it is now (closes everytime a notification appears)11:27
apacheloggerhehe, nothing for the netbook then11:27
apacheloggeryesterday I had like 30 notificaitons within 30 minutes ;-)11:28
apacheloggerwell, maybe a bit less but I defenitely felt busy11:28
a|wenwith heavy use of kopete make that at least tripple ... so everytime you use quickaccess you'll need to prey for a quiet moment11:29
apacheloggerI find it particularly difficult to control with touchpads as well, no matter how big the icons are configured, it always feels more difficult than on a desktop, that is however a issue by concept and might only affect me anyway :D11:31
apacheloggeranyway, I'll remove it for now, just to give the networkmanagement removal some company :D11:32
a|wenhehe :D ... you've hopefully added the new networkmanagement-thingy at the same time11:37
apacheloggerit's in xdg-autostart11:37
apacheloggerBUT11:37
apacheloggerwe need to clean up the package11:37
apacheloggerbecause currently it still ships the widget11:37
apacheloggeralso, we probably should create an update script for the kde update system thingy, to strip said plasmoid from the rc11:38
a|wenjup, sounds like a good idea11:38

* apachelogger bzr blames lex7912:11
apacheloggeroh dear12:11
apacheloggergood thing jonny is hiding12:11
apacheloggerlex79: ping ping ping ping ping12:12
lex79apachelogger: pong pong12:53
a|wenhi lex79!12:56
apacheloggerlex79: please get a kdelibs packaging branch12:56
lex79hi a|wen :)12:57
lex79apachelogger: from kubuntu bzr? why?12:57
apacheloggertake a look at r5412:57
apacheloggerr64 even12:57
apacheloggerI don't get the point of that particular change12:57
lex79I'm looking, what's wrong apachelogger? I have fixed only list missing files...13:00
apacheloggerrly?13:01
apacheloggerlex79: why did kcert/crypto go?13:01
lex79there wasn't that files in that version of kde, maybe cmake problem. There are now?13:04
apacheloggerlex79: well, you should know, you removed them13:05
apacheloggerlex79: anyway, my point is that you should be checking what you are removing (or adding), especially if the affected stuff is security related13:06
lex79apachelogger: now I have more experience, sorry for that... :)13:07
apacheloggerlex79: well, the punishment shall be that you find out whatever happened to kcert/crypto and why :P13:08
lex79apachelogger: but now kcert/crypto are in kde 4.3 or are still missing?13:10
apacheloggerlex79: well, the .install files still do not list them13:10
lex79ok13:10
apacheloggerso either someone didn't run list-missing or they are still not there in 4.313:10
lex79ok I'll do.13:11
ryanakcaRiddell: For Karmic+1, what do you think of http://img90.imageshack.us/img90/1981/kubuntuwww416.png ?13:38
ryanakcaOf course, it's deviating from the ubuntu.com look (which is good imho), and it has the latest news, that could be switched out with interviews and podcasts and what not, but apart from that, pretty spiffy I find :)13:40
a|wenryanakca: that is amazingly cool!13:44
apacheloggerryanakca: a lot of circles?13:48
lex79apachelogger: kcert/crypto are still not in 4.3, I build the package and run list-missing13:50
apacheloggerlex79: so what did happen to them?13:50
lex79dunno13:51
lex79I/we need investigate13:51
a|wenlex79: looks like crypto has been moved one step up to be next to kcert?13:57
a|wenlex79: http://websvn.kde.org/tags/KDE/4.3.0/kdelibs/security/CMakeLists.txt?revision=969644&view=markup13:58
lex79I'm looking kde4libs in debian websvn and crypto-kcert are not install13:58
lex79http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/pkg-kde/trunk/packages/kdelibs/debian/kdelibs5.install13:58
a|wenlooks like they have been disabled from upstream13:59
a|wens/from/by/13:59
lex79a|wen: you're right13:59
lex79so, we need enable it ?14:02
a|wenfrom upstream commit-message: "these modules don't work" ... so i'm pretty sure we don't want them14:05
a|wenapachelogger: right? ^^14:12
ScottKapachelogger: Removing the quickaccess is fine.14:15
ryanakcaa|wen: I know, someone randomly emailed it to me, I like it :)14:44
a|wennice :)14:46
apacheloggera|wen, lex79: my sources suggest that they both are not entirely ported to KDE 415:31
apacheloggerthus being useless for the better part of their usecases15:31
lex79apachelogger: when you have time ack this http://revu.ubuntuwire.com/p/plasma-runner-amarok please....15:33
EagleScreenwill also Kubuntu replace HAL by DeviceKit?? (I supuse yes)16:05
shtylmanso...I don't have sound in amarok anymore...and actually...I don't think I have sound in any kde app16:30
shtylmanryanakca: I actually don't like it all that much.. :/16:32
shtylmanthe top seems too washed out...and the bottom footer has too much happening16:33
nixternalI agree, get rid of the washout on the top, minimalize the footer content down there and it might not be to shabby actually16:47
nixternaland don't grey scale the kubuntu logo :)16:48
apacheloggerlex79: contains .hg directory16:50
nixternalmercurial FTW!16:50
lex79uff :( I'll send an email to upstream16:51
apacheloggernixternal: except for it being even slower than bzr :P16:51
apacheloggerlex79: I don't like the phrase "command amarok" makes amarok sound like a ship or something, at least something that needs a commander one way or another16:52
apacheloggerlex79: depends amarok16:53
apacheloggeror at least recommends it16:53
apacheloggerpackaging should be good otherwise16:53
lex79ok...16:54
macoum just wondering. anyone know the point of the widget dashboard?17:28
macoit seems if i add somthing to it, it gets added to the desktop anyway17:28
ScottKThat's because the desktop is a figment of your imagination and preconceived notions of computer layout.17:28
macooh17:29
macoshould i just pretend "show dashboard" is "show desktop"?17:29
ScottKPretty much.17:29
macooh. ok. i was expecting it to be like in osx or when you use screenlets and set them to the widget layer in compiz17:30
ScottKThere are some other differences, e.g. stuff you can do via the dashboard, but I don't recall the details.17:30
ScottKseele probably knows better.17:30
macothe "add widget" box is black instead of matching oxygen17:31
macoor the qt theme17:31
maco(is oxygen just the icons? if so, whats the whole theme?)17:31
ScottKair, IIRC17:32
ScottKoxygen-air for the completionists I think.17:32
macooh ok17:33
macoScottK: what package provides the "folder view" and "quick access" plasmoids?17:46
macodtchen seems not to have them17:46
a|wenmaco: plasma-widget-<name-of-plasmoid>17:48
macooooo there's a plasma-widget-ktorrent. i like this idea17:51
a|wen:D17:57
macoa|wen: does plasma-desktop provide the "desktop settings" window (when you right click on desktop, like for changing plasma theme and wallpaper)18:12
a|wenmaco: plasma-desktop ... are you talking about which package provides it or how?18:13
macowhich package18:13
macofor bug filing18:13
a|wenmy guess would be kdebase-workspace ... but i'm in no way sure about it18:15
macook18:17
macowow im confused. the "new theme" button, in source code, says its using the GHNS icon, but in actuality when i look at it, it isn't18:22
macoseele: ^18:22
EagleScreenkdm hangs when i close session with Desktop Effects disabled (karmic)18:40
EagleScreenand also with them enabled18:41
macoso maybe desktop effects are unrelated18:41
EagleScreenyes18:41
EagleScreenvideo card intel (using UXA by default in karmic)18:42
macoi mean, if it happens regardless of desktop effects, maybe they have nothing to do with it and kdm's just busted18:43
EagleScreenyes18:44
EagleScreeni do not know it it is a hardware specific issue18:44
ghostcubehmm could it be that the notificytion icon is buggy as hell in 4.3.019:14
ghostcubea19:14
ScottKkdm seems fine here.20:06
micmordEagleScreen: same problem here20:11

ubottuPlease don't use "LOL" and "OMG" and so forth on a regular basis. This is IRC, not IM, and using those lines on their own is not required, and it is rather annoying to the rest of the people in the channel; thanks.20:15
Monika|KAnd what reason would there be not to use these abbreviations on IRC in comparison to IM, they are even used on Usenet.20:18
micmordEagleScreen: I have this problem for several months on karmic20:20
EagleScreenthe same card as me20:20
micmordreally i don't think is KDE related20:20
EagleScreenit can by by graphic driver20:21
EagleScreenbut kdm works well20:21
micmordon other intel card at work pc... dmesg give me segfault error on X20:21
EagleScreenkdm does not work well, xdm works well, sorry20:21
=== ghostcube_ is now known as ghostcube
micmordhaven't tried a different x-session-manager20:22
micmordWhen I close working session (KDE or WMAKER) the only thing i can do is press power button to shutdown the PC or, if plugged to the net, make a ssh session to restart kdm and keep working.20:37
EagleScreenyes, the same as me20:39
EagleScreenxdm is poor and gdm installs meny gnome dependences20:39
ScottKkdm dies on logout here too.20:47
ScottKI just don't normally logout20:47
EagleScreenwith intel graphic, ScottK?20:48
ScottKYes20:48
micmord\o/20:48
EagleScreeni think the kdm death does not happen if UXA is disabled20:49

macoyou're a Friend?21:45
Riddellwell I'm the quiet type so I may as well make a lifestyle out of it :)21:45
macoSput: why does Quassel's icon keep flashing at me after ive already focused the buffer that's causing the notification?21:46
* seele_ was just about to say something Riddell always sitting so quietly...21:46
seele_^about...21:46
seele_did quassel get a new icon animation for unread meassages?21:46
macoits still the light dark light dark thing21:46
macoi think the glowing might be glowier now though because now i actually notice it21:46
macoglowier....is that a word?21:47
seele_i'd like to see the little ball in the circle thing change color, but whatever nuno says i guess21:47
seele_isnt he the one who created the icon21:47
macoseele_: you know when you right click the desktop and go to Desktop Settings, you can change plasma theme and wallpaper? there are two GHNS buttons that lack the icon on there. what package is that in?21:52
seele_maco: can't answer packaging questions.. i've no idea :)21:52
macokdebase-workspace was suggested but the only "New Themes" button i could find already has a GHNS icon according to the source code21:52
ScottKseele_: I think Sput recognizes it as something the needs improving.21:53
macoScottK: can you answer what i asked seele_21:53
ScottKAbout the icon?  No idea.21:53
macoabout the package21:54
macoi suspect im looking in the wrong source code because that part doesnt have the Get New Wallpaper button thats on the same screen21:54
ScottKNo.  Dunno.  I'd ask Riddell.21:55
macoRiddell: ping21:55
ScottKNCommander: llvm needs some of your love.21:56
macooh did anyone else have Akonadi decide to delete their entire addressbook at some point in the last week?21:58
macokaddressbook says i have no contacts. LIES! i had like 50 of 'em a week ago21:58
Riddellhmm,  shells/desktop/BackgroundDialog.ui is the dialogue22:03
Riddellmaco: m_newThemeButton in shells/desktop/BackgroundDialog.ui is one of them22:04
Riddellmaco: other ones in wallpapers/image/imageconfig.ui and wallpapers/image/slideshowconfig.ui22:06
Riddellmaco: do you have any patches for 4.3 we should apply for these get new stuff button fixes?22:07
macowas gonna do today and got confused because i came across desktopthemedetails.cpp's m_newThemeButton->setIcon(KIcon("get-hot-new-stuff"));22:08
seele_maco: if it is any consolation, there are way fewer KNS buttons than Abort buttons ;)22:21
macoseele_: not really22:21
seele_really?22:22
seele_i had no idea there were so many KNS buttons22:22
seele_KDE Games uses it a lot, but we don't ship those by default so you should skip those until last22:22
macothere were only like 10 abort things22:23
seele_about to get on the plane.. back in a few hours22:26
Riddellhttp://www.kdedevelopers.org/node/4039  what's all this about?  "Ruby Bindings are now in the default Kubuntu install"?23:46
Riddellplasma-scriptengines             | kdebase-workspace               | kdebase-workspace-bin (Recommends)   that'll be it23:56
ScottKAt least he's in favor of it.23:58
