[00:11] nearest hot tub seems to be 4 miles away so you're safe [00:11] oh ok [00:12] how did you google the nearest hot tub? [00:12] their website lists nearby spa facilities [00:12] ah [00:12] there's no mention of anything on site [00:16] * JontheEchidna goes off to do other things while dh_shlibdeps runs [00:18] well I'm away for the next three days, keep merging and having fun [00:18] I just posted on that "looking for input" thread on kde-devel, hopefully that won't blow up while I'm away :) [00:18] qt and phonon uploaded [00:29] seele: Yes [00:34] it's really annoying, although it also made me realise that if you get multiple messages from the same application within a certain period of time, you dont need to show the 2nd to n messages, just the first one [00:35] the auditory ping is all you need [00:35] so say you send me 3 PM's within a few seconds of each other [00:35] message one should have a ping + notification box [00:35] message 2 and 3 should just have pings to let me know that you are still talking to me [00:36] because knowing you are sending more than one message means that the conversation is important [00:36] where if you were just sending me one message, you might have simply responded to a question, posted a link or some other mlp, or mentioned me in passing [00:37] what would be really awesome is if we could detect desktop behavior [00:37] so say you ping me, i switch from an app to the message, then immediately switch back to my original app [00:37] that could be a clue that i'm not involved in the conversation and doing other work [00:37] and so a "smart" system would forgo the visual notification and just ping me [00:38] and after a while, if it notices i *really* dont care about what you have to say, forgo the pings too and just collect the messages in whatever queue/indicator [00:38] hmmm [00:38] * seele is done brain dumping [00:38] but the out of sync pings are a realy problem [00:39] you start to wonder what the pings are about [00:39] or why the messages are flashing with no ping [00:39] and if the two are even related to each other [00:42] Yep [00:57] hi, how to get rid of the kwin error message when you restart kdm while you are under kde 4.3 karmic [00:58] In short, there isn't a way. (I assume you're using nvidia) [01:00] no [01:00] i want to install 3d drivers in live mode [01:00] evening [01:00] i tested fglrx [01:02] shtylman: Pack ear plugs for UDS. [01:03] why do you snore ScottK? [01:03] shtylman: You will think rgreening is exaggerating about how much he snores. He isn't. [01:03] oh yeah i've heard stories about rgreening [01:03] jjesse: rgreening. I shared a room with last time. [01:09] Riddell: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Kubuntu done, as well as fixing up the older pages as well [01:09] shtylman: You're in luck. I read the list wrong. It's txwikinger that needs the ear plugs. === dendrobates is now known as dendro-afk === dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates [01:41] seele: you don't happen to know how one disables the firewall on a *buntu box, do you? [01:41] I figured it out a few months ago, but rebooted this server and now I can't figure it out again [01:41] :-( [01:41] manual says it uses ufw, but I don't even have that installed [01:48] ufw isn't enabled by default anyway. [01:52] right [01:52] and whatever this is, it was enabled by default [02:01] Then it's not something installed by default. [02:01] What problem are you having. [02:03] sure it is [02:03] standard install of ubuntu server vm version [02:04] jeos-vm [02:04] or whatever it's called these days [02:04] from the first bootup I had to do something to allow access in [02:04] I just can't remember what [02:04] everything's running inside -- I can e.g. telnet 127.0.0.1 22, but I can't get in from outside on any port [02:04] which sounds a lot like a firewall [02:05] It does, but ufw is the only firewall and it's off by default. It's a bit odd. [02:09] agreed... [02:09] jefferai: #ubuntu-server is probably a better channel [02:10] ah, thanks [02:12] Why do I need earplugs? [02:12] because he snores [02:12] soooooo loud [02:12] rgreening that is [02:13] hehe [02:13] You don't know the Texas air.. It makes you so tired, you sleep anyway [04:09] txwikinger2: You don't know how loud he snores. [04:09] Well.. I will find out === txwikinger2 is now known as txwikinger [04:10] Yes. You will. [04:11] I have been known to sleep through all kinds of stuff [04:12] * txwikinger wonders if he should start to help some merging work for lucid [04:48] hahaha [04:50] looks like Roderick is rooming with himself... [06:28] http://www.extremetech.com/article2/0,2845,2355459,00.asp [06:28] kubuntu review [06:36] So it's not entirely clear to me that my last mail to kubuntu-devel was entirely CoC compliant. I'm reasonably certain I don't care. [06:45] it's not explicitly non-compliant, therefore I deem it compliant ;) [06:46] Excellent [06:47] I'm waiting for the reply that explains how qualified he is to have an opinion on something he's never used. [06:47] messages like the one you replied to is why I no longer read the kubuntu-users list any more [06:47] I'd just get too worked up and angry, and I'd just rather save the energy for other things [06:49] Yep. I don't read it anymore either. [06:49] The only 'user' list I read is ubuntu-server and that's both users and developers. [06:49] I guess I read devel-discuss too, but not in detail. [06:50] markey: Thanks. Not a bad review. [06:50] ryanakca: ^^^ what about adding the review markey mentioned in the review section of the web site. [06:52] If you do, make sure to link to the full version of the review (linked off that one) [06:55] ah yes, you have this CoC :) [06:55] it's just too tempting [06:55] what would happen if I, theoretically of course, said "fuck" here [06:56] :) [06:56] not that I would ever do such a naughty thing [06:56] Depends on if someone was annoyed. [06:56] !language | markey [06:56] markey: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. [06:56] rofl [06:56] That's about the worst that would happen [06:56] there's nothing in the CoC about swearing [06:56] ok, but that's actuall sane, deciding on a case-by-case basis [06:56] we do it like that too [06:57] however the guidelines do disallow it [06:57] There's separate rules for IRC. [06:57] but people are invited to use all sorts of swear words on our channels, unless they are insulting someone (us, mostly) [06:58] there is an unwritten rule in IRC-land, that *-devel is self-governing [07:03] OK, snarky message number two launched (motu-council list this time). === maco__ is now known as maco [08:06] Hi guys. Not strictly Kubuntu related, but can someone tell my how a bug like this gets assigned low priority? It is a total showstopper for my SO's laptop. There is even a confirmed fix for it just lying around: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/418933 [08:06] Launchpad bug 418933 in linux "no internet connection (wifi+ethernet doesn't work)" [Low,Confirmed] [08:26] nhn: not the right channel IMHO, try #ubuntu-kernel if you can ping Andy Withcroft there. I would argu with: a) regression b) patch available. Don't fight the prio is wrong war ;) [08:28] ok, thanks. Looking in from the outside, a priority of "low" just strikes me as very odd even though int he end, if the bug gets fixed it does not matter much! :-) [09:16] JontheEchidna: btw I only get one unreleased fix when diffing sp bzr to what we have in karmic [09:24] hi [09:24] I was asked by some users about plans for 4.3.3 and jaunty [09:24] is that in the run or canceled ? [09:26] was never planned [09:27] hola [09:33] markey: that kubuntu review is the first time I've seen anyone complain about adblock-by-default, it's almost like he has a vested interest :) [09:44] apachelogger, JontheEchidna, Riddell: is sp in bzr fixed? can I continue with bugfixing? [09:44] * apachelogger didnt see any issue === keffie_jayx_ is now known as keffie_jayx [09:48] apachelogger: I co from bzr and it's not the code shipped in karmic but an older version [09:48] amichair: from what I checked out yesterday there is an extra fix in bzr which hasn't been uploaded to ubuntu, which makes bzr more up to date than karmic [09:48] bzr has software-properties (0.75.5) UNRELEASED [09:48] karmic has 0.75.4 [09:48] for example, the import key dialog shows gpg files. bzr version, like jaunty, doesn't [09:50] * apachelogger is wondering why rake on gentoo looks for the mysql socket in tmp -.- [09:51] the second tab is labeled 'third party software', like in jaunty, whereas in karmic it's 'other software'. etc... [09:52] or, I might be missing something :-) [09:52] (but I don't see what) [09:53] maybe your branch is all outdated? :P [09:53] bzr branch lp:software-properties [09:54] amichair: diff -urN is your friend [09:54] apachelogger: it's the first time I ever used bzr, a fresh co [09:56] Riddell: diff -urNad is superior to diff -urN :P [09:56] so [09:56] how about using redmine for project management? [09:56] * apachelogger lacks organization, and feels like a chicken running in circles [09:56] a blue headed step chicken if you will [09:56] apachelogger: is that part of ur recursion ex? [09:56] recursion is all implemented [09:57] n^3 steps to ensure every field of a labyrinth gets visited [09:59] woah [09:59] * apachelogger runs off for analysis [10:00] hehe [10:34] apachelogger: about redmine, that could even be interesting for replacing Buzilla in KDE [10:34] I'm so fed up with it [10:34] could spend all day with closing dupes [10:41] markey: Can redmine close dupes for you?? [10:43] Riddell: I just found a bug: when using the krunner in the Quicksand mode, typing Amarok it says "Amarok (KDE3, Audio Player)", which seems not so in Opensuse [10:46] MelisU: I don't know. maybe? [10:46] dupe detection is hard, but possible [10:47] anyone read about the mac file killing game ? [10:47] nope, link? [10:48] its only german one [10:48] http://www.nickles.de/c/n/gratisspiel-ballert-bei-mac-dateien-weg-8000.htm [10:54] great idea ;) kde games needs one of those [10:57] :D [10:58] meh, koffice-data-kde4 tries to overwrite an icon, which is also in krita-kde4 1:2.0.2-2ubuntu3. Riddell told me to make koffice-data-kde4 replace krita-kde4 (<< 1:2.0.2-2ubuntu3) but that does not work. I really do not know what to do next? :) [10:59] force the icon overwrite ? [11:00] or is it possible to remove krita before installing koffice [11:00] iam not so good in packaging [11:02] neversfelde: replaces krita-kde4 (<< [new-koffice-version]) [11:03] neversfelde: use the version your are packaging now for the replaces [11:03] Mamarok: quicksand mode? [11:03] Riddell: mhh, ok. I will try it. Thank you [11:08] Riddell, did you create any other blueprint for the Kubuntu translations session? I saw you renamed the desktop- one to kubuntu-, but it was still marked as superseded by the community- one: [11:08] https://blueprints.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/kubuntu-lucid-translations [11:09] so now the community one has been scheduled instead [11:09] dpm: hmm, that sound be the other way around [11:09] kubuntu-lucid-translations is the one I wanted [11:09] Riddell, yeah, that's why I'm asking [11:11] can you un-supersed it? Then I can supersede the community- one and ask jono to remove it from the community track [11:11] btw 4.3.3 works fine but still printer apllet is stressing peoples :) [11:11] Riddell: in the Krunner, you can change the mode it works, default is Command oriented, Task oriented is Quicksand [11:13] Mamarok: I cannot confirm your problem, here quicksand says "Amarok (Medienwiedergabe)" [11:14] dpm: let me see how well this train internet works [11:14] ok [11:16] dpm: superceded removed [11:21] Riddell, ok, marked the community- one as superseded. I'll add some notes to https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/Specs/LucidTranslations. There's also a big red cross next to Sprints, so perhaps the blueprint will have to be re-targeted to Lucid [11:23] neversfelde: well, I have several apps that say "KDE3, description", so maybe the translation corrected that [11:23] * Mamarok goes making a screenshot [11:23] Mamarok: I'll have to finish my work and will test it with an english system after it [11:26] neversfelde: http://imagebin.ca/view/jO2mPRW.html [11:30] rickspencer3: can you accept kubuntu-lucid-translations for uds-l? [11:31] neversfelde: wait, I suspect it to be due to me not having the Karmic Amarok installed, but using git [11:47] 3 good newses: first, I figured out the sp bzr deal... as it turns out, the bzr was indeed up to date, but the diff consistent entirely of the introduction of the bug I was seeing! which made it look like the reverse diff is a bugfix, and bzr is the one that's behind... sorry for all the confusion I caused! [11:48] second, my first kubuntu bugfix ever was applied by someone from the bug report! mazeltov to me! [11:48] third, considering the first - now I have another bug to fix, with zero research required! [11:49] Hello! [11:49] I've found a bug, but I don't know in which package. [11:49] Could I explain it here? [11:52] Kottizen: go ahead [11:52] amichair: congratulations! [11:52] Riddell: Oke [11:54] Riddell: I've tried to install a graphic driver for my video card. I clicked to "Hardware drivers" and then it searched. It found a driver from ATI/AMD, same as on Ubuntu before. But, when I clicked the button "Activate" nothing happend. The button got pressed down, and then released, but I got no message or nothing. [11:56] Kottizen: that's a bug in jocket-kde which I think is already reported, you can search through the existing reports at bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/jockey and/or report a new one with the command "ubuntu-bug jockey-kde" [11:56] ScottK: I'll add it when I get back from school tonight [11:56] it maybe just that you don't have a packge cache, try if apt-get update helps it [11:56] Okey, thank you. Is there any other way to install the driver? Like "apt-get" in the terminal? [11:56] Okey. [11:57] Updated. Do I need to restart? [11:57] WIIE [11:57] It works, thanks" :D [11:59] Does jockey-kde not run apt-get update on start? and if it doesnt, why not? [12:13] jussio1: no and it should [12:13] Riddell: ok, is there a bug? if no, Ill go file one... [12:13] jussio1: looking in jockey/detection.py says it queries some remote servers about hwids... but I don't see anything about apt [12:17] Do we have any DDs in the room that could sponsor knmap (fixes a FTBFS, package split) to Debian (so that we can then merge/sync it back into Lucid)? It seems to be rather difficult to get it reviewed and sponsored... [12:19] markey: it should become kde's management interface :D [12:20] :) === nookie^ is now known as nookie^afk [12:22] markey: take a look at the quelle logo http://diepresse.com/home/wirtschaft/economist/520003/index.do?_vl_backlink=/home/index.do [12:23] in the context of it being a german company with an austrian sub [12:23] ROFL [12:23] :D [12:23] that blue hand?

Shall I upload it to the backports beta ppa? [13:08] neversfelde: more like staging or whatever is used for QA [13:23] apachelogger: ok, it is in experimental at the moment, but there is also Qt 4.6 [13:23] * apachelogger doesnt get that whole ppa crap anymore TBH [13:24] one big mess if you ask me === Quintasan1 is now known as Quintasan [13:39] JontheEchidna: dont get your comment on bug 53879 [13:39] Launchpad bug 53879 in kdenetwork "kppp menu entry should launch as root by default" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/53879 [13:39] I get a kdesudo dialog when I launch kppp [13:43] JontheEchidna: you should read what people are writing :P [13:43] anyway [13:43] * apachelogger is reclosing [13:44] why should I bother to read a crappy forum post when they have a perfectly good bug tracker to explain themselves with?

I'm still undecided, we use it, and I like its flexibility, but it misses features and some users like bitching about it [13:55] users always bitch [13:55] but then they prolly bitch regardless of the tracker in use [13:56] ALWAYS [13:56] Sput: pretty much so [13:56] Sput: redmine 0.9 is going to be a lot nicer too [13:56] so I'm just not sure how redmine compares to the others, because all I know is Mantis besides [13:56] hmmm.. time to switch branches then?

[14:27] Launchpad bug 440361 in kde4libs "kdeinit4 crashed with SIGSEGV in KJS::PropertyMap::mark()" [Low,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/440361 [14:27] it was up in the 80s with tons of crashes from crappy python plasmoids from kde-look [14:28] crappy python [14:28] * apachelogger giggles [14:28] I guess, but without a testcase there's not much upstream will do [14:28] wasnt the idea that script plasmoids cant crash plasma? ;) [14:28] but as long as it's in their bugtracker and not ours... [14:28] * apachelogger woudl wish for sandboxing [14:28] well, it doesn't actually crash plsama [14:28] but apport detects all python exceptions as crashes [14:28] :) [14:29] interesting concept [14:29] probably makes sense at some level [14:29] Oo [14:29] kdebase 162 [14:29] wth [14:29] Python exceptions that aren't caught are crashes. [14:30] Sounds like the problem isn't catching an exception, but pointing the blame at the wrong package. [14:30] python itself is an unchaught exception from my POV [14:30] the python plasmoids in question are from kde-look, so they have no package [14:31] == closed faster than... something from texas or something [14:33] can not compute bug 465604 [14:33] Launchpad bug 465604 in kdebase "no input in konsole possible after switching from non kde application" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/465604 [14:33] cnc exception caught [14:33] restarting [14:33] Yesterday I got a bug on clamav that was from some PPA, so I not only invalid'ed the bug, but hunted down the PPA owner and asked them to remove clamav from their PPA. They actually did. [14:34] Speaking of random crap [14:38] someone stole the koffice 2.1 beta packages for karmic :) [14:40] apachelogger: half of the kdebase bugs are not-upstreamed/un-prioritized. Might be good to just go through and prioritize for when the lucid bug triage policy kicks in [14:40] when does it kick in? [14:40] now? [14:41] when the spec gets approved I guess [14:42] * apachelogger doubts that [14:42] who would approve the spec? [14:43] Riddell is the set spec approver for that spec [14:43] this also ties in with what we end up doing with apport crash detection, so it would be best to not enact new policy before we can ensure that apport will be disabled [14:44] especially if part of the spec is making the public aware of new policy [14:44] maybe I worry too much? [14:44] yes [14:44] because [14:45] technically what you just said overrides the kubuntu council [14:45] which, AFAIK has the last word on decisions of such large impact [14:45] so even when jr approves the spec it is not any more backed up than it is now :P [14:47] I suppose that's correct [14:47] I guess this will wait till the post-UDS meeting? [14:48] as usual [14:49] who does do the work? [14:49] us [14:49] so, who gets to decide? [14:49] us [14:49] I suppose [14:49] JontheEchidna: srsly, if you, as prime bug triage, can't decide upon how you want to work anymore I would be so outta here [14:51] * JontheEchidna really, really wishes more people would look at the bug tracker once in a while [14:53] take bug 446180 for example [14:53] Launchpad bug 446180 in kdebase-workspace "zz-plasma-remove-network-manager.py crashed with ImportError in ()" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/446180 [14:53] 1 bazillion duplicates, I've even mentioned it more than once here [14:53] but nobody takes care of it [14:53] because nobody looks at the bugs in the bugtracker [14:55] the problem is most likely that whatever package has that upgrade script lacks a dependency on python-kde4, but I have my hands full handling the other 3,000 bugs [14:55] mhhh [14:55] python [14:55] when will you learn [14:56] JontheEchidna: I wonder how that is possible considering loads and loads of crap depends on python though [14:56] ubuntu users, primarily [14:56] install k3b for example [14:56] pulls in kdebase-workspace-bin since it has policykit [14:56] but not python-kde4 [14:57] -> failure when kconf_update runs [14:57] well [14:57] gdebi, install-package, plasma-addons, software-properties, languages-selector-kde4 [14:58] to run into that issue one must not have any kubuntu tool [14:58] ^none of which are installed by ubuntu users installing k3b [14:58] sensible [14:58] JontheEchidna: I'm looking at 446180 [14:59] thanks [14:59] bug 455034 [14:59] Launchpad bug 455034 in kdebase "Dolphin file/folder select, rename very slow when information panel open" [Undecided,Invalid] https://launchpad.net/bugs/455034 [14:59] maybe we should remove the info panel from kds? [14:59] though I think that breaks UI consistency and doesnt qualify for SRU? [15:00] * JontheEchidna would wait to see how things are in 4.4 before k-d-s'ing it [15:01] well [15:01] we kds the info panel IIRC [15:01] upstream does not have it on by default [15:01] oh, hmm [15:01] so we might be at fault here [15:01] as ever so often [15:02] how I do hate bug reports and their incredible unimportance compared to real problems [15:02] What does kds mean? [15:03] kubuntu-default-settings [15:03] Ah. [15:03] Thanks. [15:03] apachelogger: ok, let's do it. Engage lucid bug triage mode! [15:04] and.. punch it! [15:04] * JontheEchidna sips the hot earl grey [15:06] * apachelogger runs around in circles [15:06] JontheEchidna: are you going to let everyone know? [15:07] kubuntu-devel, ubuntu-devel, blog about it, ubuntu bug squad, ... [15:07] * txwikinger watches apachelogger runs around circles [15:07] oh yeah, we were going to do that [15:09] JontheEchidna: Fundamental problem with 446180. kdebase-workspace-data describes itself as "shared data files for the KDE 4 base workspace module", but it also ships arch all code like the file that caused that crash. [15:10] JontheEchidna: do we have a standard reply when closing because bug is already upstreameD? [15:12] "launching juk and amarok in konsole vs. xterm" [15:12] closing => useless title [15:13] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kubuntu/Bugs/Responses#Upstream Bugs of "Low" Importance [15:14] if this keeps up I'll have blogged almost every day this week [15:14] BAHAAAHAAHAHAHAAHAHAE [15:14] bug b [15:14] bug 298940 [15:14] Launchpad bug 298940 in kdebase "multiple kde4 vnc sessions for same user does not work" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/298940 [15:14] who freaking cares about freaking vnc [15:15] why is that crap even around [15:15] even rdp is superior [15:19] * JontheEchidna fixed up the responses a bit [15:19] bug 449604 [15:19] Launchpad bug 449604 in kdebase "Trash icon likely to be removed; cannot restore it" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/449604 [15:20] you know [15:20] I... I cannot control my hand... [15:20] I can only do so much bug triage until I go all crazy because of the crap I get to read [15:20] must... remove.. trash... [15:20] Also, consider flagging this as a security issue, since people tend to rely on the trashcan as a way of removing sensitive information from their systems. Dolphin and other programs will continue using Del to send files to the trashcan, even when the user has no apparent way to empty it. [15:20] sure, like it is impossible to recover data from a crashed shuttle HDD ... [15:20] oh hold on, it is possible [15:20] Hello guys... [15:20] G, it must be sure easy to recover data that was only deleted [15:21] a typical scenario is asked on #amarok... [15:21] physical access to computer == boned anyways [15:21] Is when a user installs/runs amarok from gnome... [15:21] any security measures save thermite only delay things [15:22] They usually have problems about codec and audio.. which is typically because of the wrong backend chosen [15:22] Don't you think these things should be done automatically? Even if someone installs a kde app from gnome? [15:23] Like choose pulseaudio and gstreamer backend on phonon, for instance? [15:23] aleite: Yes, it should be done automatically. [15:23] I just helped a user on #amarok because of this.. ubuntu 9.10 [15:24] He was "really" lost.. : ) [15:24] apachelogger: Security team has a "No, this isn't really a security issue" standard answer [15:26] Scottk: Is any work on this issue planned to be done as part of this project timelord? [15:26] aleite: It's too early to tell. Contributions are welcome. [15:26] you know.. many people install/run amarok from gnome (well, amarok is just the best.. :) ) [15:28] where oh where do people get bugs like bug 442000 get from [15:28] Launchpad bug 442000 in kdebase "dolphin is alsways opening a second small window" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/442000 [15:28] apachelogger: valid issue at one point, though I cannot repro anymore [15:28] I was using KDE 4 when it was not even carrying a 4.x version numba and never ever saw such crap [15:29] aleite: project timelord does not worry about specifics [15:29] people do [15:29] projects never d [15:29] o [15:30] apachelogger: but it would be a "specific", all program on kde uses phonon.. it would be a matter of configuring phonon correctly so kde apps can run smoothly on gnome [15:31] it is not "amarok specific" [15:31] but KDE specific... [15:31] basically pulseaudio and gstreamer are in the defautl ubuntu install. not much we can do there [15:31] we can't really do anything about phonon's abysmal support for the two [15:32] JontheEchidna: Well, that's sad.. you know.. because when a user goes to ubuntu sotfware center.. many of them doesn't know the diference of kde/gnome.. for them they are all apps.. [15:33] yeah, it's sad. But there's just not much we can do. We're stuck between a rock and a hard place [15:33] I would really like to help in this spec.. but lack of technical knowledge [15:34] Can't kubuntu use gstreamer backend as default like ubuntu? would be a step... [15:34] Oo [15:34] right [15:34] aleite: phonon gstreamer back end is in a rather unfortunate state of crashiness IIRC. [15:34] so first Amarok devs come and say "dont ever use gstreamer it will kill babies and eat your apples" [15:34] that would make kubuntu equally broken [15:34] and now e should use gstreamer [15:34] * apachelogger blinks [15:34] bug bug 373260 [15:34] Launchpad bug 373260 in xinit "~/.Xmodmap gets loaded only by gdm (and not by kdm or startx)" [Low,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/373260 [15:34] gstreamer is the problem here [15:35] right [15:35] I am outta [15:35] here [15:35] I am not a amarok dev.. :) [15:35] how can we be talking about sounds if .xmodmap does not get loaded [15:35] can you imagine [15:35] !!! [15:35] just a suggestion ... [15:36] aleite: We're glad to have people come and make suggestions. [15:36] or, maybe when you run amarok on ubuntu, suggests to install libxine1-all-plugins.. the way it's done on kubuntu.. doesn't ubuntu/kubuntu use the "same" notification system? [15:37] mine seems to work... i have caps set to be esc in my .Xmodmap, and it is doing so... [15:37] Scottk: Well, I came here because the user was really lost.. [15:38] aleite: Perhaps write up a "If you are using Amarok in Gnome and you have no sound, here's what you do" tutorial for now. [15:38] At least it would make helping users easier. [15:38] Some might even find it via google. [15:38] Yes.. would be a great help [15:39] if you want to post it in tutorials section of ubuntuforums.org i'll approve it [15:39] <-- moderator [15:41] aleite: ^^^ [15:41] well guys, sorry if I might have interrupted you in something important... but don't take my suggestions as an amarok dev's one... since I am not an amarok dev [15:41] JontheEchidna: Fixed in bar and proposed SRU uploaded. [15:41] \o/ [15:41] aleite: There's a lot going on. I think you know enough to write this tutorial. [15:42] JontheEchidna: BTW, it was caused by a script we added, but we didn't added the depends. [15:42] yeah, that's what I suspected [15:43] Scottk: Well, in fact... is there any kubuntu wiki or something where I could contribute this way? [15:44] aleite: maco suggested ubuntuforums.org. There is also the communty section of help.ubuntu.com. [15:54] quick python style q: http://paste.ubuntu.com/311619/ [15:54] well..

[19:04] are kdenetwork, kdegraphics and kdeedu going to be updated to 4.3.3? [19:05] scim worked...havent made sense of skim or ibus yet though [19:08] tsimpson: Where? [19:09] maco: I vaguely recall a new ibus package. I also recall reading KDE didn't support it yet. Not sure which is correct. [19:09] ScottK: in the backports ppa [19:09] ScottK: someone in here got it working. i just dont know whom. [19:09] well i dont know about "new" [19:09] but someone had ibus working in kubuntu a few months ago [19:09] there's only 4.3.2 in Jaunty (nothing for karmic) [19:09] tsimpson: I'm sure it will. Not sure who's working on 4.3.3 packaging. [19:10] tsimpson: For Jaunty there won't be 4.3.3. [19:10] (I don't think) [19:11] I know there probably won't for Jaunty, but we have an announcement that KDE 4.3.3 is out, and parts of it are missing [19:14] Riddell: ^^^ [19:14] * ScottK didn't work on it, so doesn't know.

[23:34] amichair: the latter, in my opinion [23:36] ScottK: thanks [23:38] JontheEchidna: hmmm... it appears that way in 4 different places in software-properties... that feels wrong. I thought of extracting a common utility method,maybe extract a commong method, but if it can be just as clearly written in 1 line anyway... what do u think? [23:38] JontheEchidna: what's wrong in qt ? [23:39] Done [23:40] amichair: yeah, maybe that is too many lines for something that simple [23:40] I don't think anyone would mind if you used that style throughout, as long as things were consistent [23:40] Lex79: nothing, just the -dbg package is a bit bigger in 4.6 [23:41] oh ok [23:41] 115 MB bigger, installed size :D [23:42] Tell pitti to get a bigger hard drive for the retracers. [23:42] lol [23:43] JontheEchidna: thanks for advice :-) [23:45] I *think* that there was more than one -dbg package from the source package in the past.. maybe debian combined them [23:48] JontheEchidna: yes, I drop our custom dbg packages, now we use dh_strip, see line 253 here: [23:49] http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~kubuntu-members/qt/ubuntu/annotate/head%3A/debian/rules [23:49] ;) [23:51] libqt4-dev-dbg is not present in qt 4.6 [23:52] blah, what's wrong? http://launchpadlibrarian.net/35276454/buildlog_ubuntu-lucid-i386.phonon-backends_4:4.3.1-5ubuntu1_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz [23:54] uhm weird [23:54] libqt4-multimedia is perfectly installable on my machine [23:54] JontheEchidna: Gotta figure out why libqt4-multimedia is not installable. [23:56] JontheEchidna: Look at how long ago the qt4-x11 build for i386 got built. [23:56] It may have been before the last publisher run and only partly published. [23:57] 20 hours ago [23:57] OK. [23:57] I suppose I'll try installing it in my pbuilder [23:58] Just did. [23:58] It's installable [23:58] Same here. [23:59] The most recent publisher run should have finished at a quarter of. I'm going to retry it again, just to see.
