atrus | so, i'm still confused about the messaging menu. What determines if an application shows up there? | 19:37 |
---|---|---|
atrus | evolution/empathy/gwibber/pidgin seem to just be there permanently, even the ones i don't use, just because they're installed. gm-notify only shows up when its running which seems like the right behavior... | 19:38 |
atrus | is there a way to remove things from the menu if i don't want them there? | 19:38 |
atrus | ie, an app that's installed for another user, but that I don't actually use at all? | 19:39 |
atrus | also, is there any visual indication from indicator-applet that an application isn't running? Evolution's always in there, but it seems like the menu only does anything if the evolution UI is open, which is confusing. | 19:40 |
tedg | atrus: You can remove things by putting them in the blacklist directory if you'd like. | 20:04 |
tedg | atrus: Applications that show up there are those who have been ported to use the libindicate library. | 20:04 |
tedg | atrus: gm-notify should put it self as a launcher there, but it hasn't yet. | 20:04 |
tedg | atrus: Not having a large difference between running and not running is a design goal in that you can go to a menu to find the application no matter what the state of it is. | 20:05 |
atrus | tedg: okay, so looking at evolution for example, how do i tell from looking at the menu whether evolution is actually checking mail for me? | 20:06 |
atrus | it shows up in the menu regardless of whether it's checking mail (apparently). | 20:07 |
tedg | atrus: It will have your mailboxes listed below it, and not have a description if it is not running. | 20:07 |
tedg | Sorry. Description == not running. Mailboxes == running. | 20:08 |
atrus | that seems somewhat non-intuitive. | 20:08 |
SiDi | Hi there. Does anyone have Celeste Lyn Paul's email by chance? | 21:13 |
ScottK | SiDi: Should be in her Launchpad profile or you can contact her via Launchpad. | 21:13 |
SiDi | ScottK: do you have her LP username then please? :) | 21:14 |
ScottK | SiDi: I'd guess seele (her IRC Nick), but if not LP search on that should turn it up. | 21:14 |
SiDi | oh, found her on google. Thanks | 21:15 |
atrus | tedg: so, where is this blacklist directory? or did that make karmic/karmic-proposed yet? | 22:53 |
tedg | atrus: ~/.config/indicators/messages/application-blacklist If you want you can just do "mkdir -p ~/.config/indicators/messages/application-blacklist ; cp /usr/share/indicators/messages/applications/* /usr/share/indicators/messages/applications/" | 22:54 |
tedg | Sorry, the second directory in the cp should be the blacklist one. | 22:56 |
tedg | Copy-and-paste error. | 22:56 |
atrus | hmm. | 22:56 |
atrus | so, i did "mkdir -p ~/.config/indicators/messages/application-blacklist; cp /usr/share/indicators/messages/applications/evolution ~/.config/indicators/messages/application-blacklist", and then removed/re-added the indicator applet, but evolution still shows up in there. | 22:57 |
tedg | Sorry, it should be "applications-blacklist" instead of "application-blacklist" | 22:58 |
atrus | "mkdir -p ~/.config/indicators/messages/applications-blacklist; cp /usr/share/indicators/messages/applications/evolution ~/.config/indicators/messages/applications-blacklist" | 22:59 |
atrus | and evolution still shows up. | 22:59 |
tedg | Hmm... that's unexpected.... | 23:07 |
tedg | I need to go and make dinner. But probably the best thing to do is kill indicator-messages-service and then run it in a terminal. It'll output lots of fun information about what it's thinking. | 23:08 |
atrus | tedg: so it does report finding the blacklist item, but it also reports "Found file: evolution" twice... | 23:14 |
atrus | oh. | 23:16 |
