FLOZzHello all  _o/09:53
mac_vmrdoob: nice :) , but wouldnt that be tan or brown? what mat did not want , i would personally like something what you or MadsRH have done though :)15:46
mrdoobwell15:47
mrdoobI don't know..15:47
mrdoob:)15:47
mrdoobif it's orange/brown, because it's orange/brown15:48
mrdoobif it's green, because it like opensuse (or whatever)15:48
mrdoobwhen it's blue...15:48
mrdoobyou know15:48
mrdoobI think ubuntu can work with orange/brown, is just a matter of using it right, and realise that people don't like orange/brown because it hasn't been used right, and not because orange/brown are bad15:49
mac_vmrdoob: yeah , hence i had done  , the ones i did ,  less saturated so that you cant specifically point to a color ;p15:49
mrdoobyeah15:49
mrdoobI though the orange one was interesting, but then the grey panels didn't worked too well15:49
mrdoobso with dark wrong it gets more integrated/elegant (I think)15:50
mrdoobaltough I have a problem with saturated colours15:51
mac_vmrdoob:  both yours and MadsRH are quite catchy  , its just the design team :(15:51
mrdoobI always end up saturating too much15:51
mac_vmrdoob: yeah , your initial one was *very* saturated , the third one i submitted was basically yours but drained of color15:52
mrdoobyeah15:56
mrdoobit was cool to see people playing with the .psd :)15:56
mrdoobis there any link that defines the limitations of the GDM?15:57
ckontrosIs there ever? :P It's always code, code, code. Best you can do is contact MacSlow.15:58
mrdoobthe guy doing the notify-osd thing?15:59
ckontrosAmong other things.16:00
mrdoobMirco Muller16:00
mrdoobok16:00
mrdoobdo you have his email?16:00
ckontrosNot handy. IS easy to Google.16:01
mrdoobok16:01
ckontrosThere are certainly other players in this new GDM but Mirco has been my contact.16:01
mrdoobok16:07
mrdoobsent him an email16:07
mrdoobwe'll where this ends up16:07
mrdoob*we'll see16:07
mac_vmrdoob: or you could contact him quickly in #ubuntu-desktop on UTC working hrs16:11
mac_v*quicker !16:12
mrdoobnah, that's too intrussive :)16:13
mrdoobemail is good by now :)16:13
mrdoobthanks16:13
mac_vmrdoob: actually email is intrusive ;)16:13
mrdoobanything is intrusive16:13
mac_vunless you know the person before-hand16:14
mrdoobbut I think: phone irc email16:14
mrdoobin that order16:14
mac_vlol , imagine if people started listing their phone#16:14
mrdoobwell, you know, if he has his emails on launchpad16:15
mrdoobI guess is to allow get contacted like this16:15
ckontrosEmail is the preferred method among Ubuntu developers for things like this. Lets them better track things and reply when they can.16:15
mrdoobexactly what I mean :)16:15
* mac_v finds some dont respond to emails! maybe its just me ;p16:16
* ckontros takes a whack @ mac_v's self-esteem and agrees with him. Yes. it's you. ;)16:17
* mac_v was actually referring to ckontros not responding to some mails , so i think its clearer now16:18
mac_v;p16:18
ckontrosAlot of the time I hit you up here instead. ;)16:18
mac_vckontros: why is breathe timeline refering to hardy and hardy+1?16:20
ckontrosBecause I'm an old fart that's been doin' this too damn long. (fixed)16:21
mac_v*correction old stinky fart ;p16:22
ckontrosI gotta re-organize the front page a little now also. Now that we have releases, I wanna make actually getting the icons a little more prominent.16:23
mac_vckontros: how about adding a 14px for the lp page? that will show up in the karma and stuff16:24
ckontrosI might. But really, only kids care about Karma. :P16:25
mac_vckontros: well kids are running Ubuntu for now , move over old man ;)16:25
ckontrosIf you think so.16:26
mac_vi notice lot of young faces , especially in the design team16:26
mrdoobhow old are you guys?16:27
mrdoob50?16:27

ckontrosFor what app?17:19
ckontrosBut generally, I have to look them up myself.17:19
mac_vckontros: not specific to apps , my hotkeys just stop working often , i clear the .gnome2 , .config .gconf and they start working , i havent been able to pinpoint the location for these settings , do you knwo where these are stored?17:21
mac_vknow*17:21
ckontrosNot off-hand but I'll look. I wanna say .gnome2 though.17:22
mac_vthat was my guess too , i somehow manage to not find it. :(17:22
mac_vi'm gonna test with a new user , will be back in a few mins , let me know if you find something :)17:24
