coz_hey all00:30
darkmatterheya coz_01:18
coz_darkmatter, `hey guy :)01:18
darkmattercoz_: I'm debating dual booting ZevenOS for a proper test drive01:19
coz_zevenOs?   I will have to google that one :)01:20
coz_StormOs I am wanting to dual witrh01:20
coz_with01:20
darkmattercoz_: ZevenOS is basially a BeOS inspired linux. it looks like Zeta (even has the deskbar, vcards in the 'people' app, etc, but its all gtk with sawfish as a windowmanager01:21
coz_darkmatter,  oh  I in stalled haiku  a couple weeks ago01:22
darkmattercoz_: http://www.zevenos.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/4058581050_06d3f9e653_o.png01:23
coz_oh yeah looks just like Be01:23
darkmattercoz_: I'm waiting for haiku to mature and at least become multiuser first01:23
coz_darkmatter,  yeah its ok.... my old BE machine isnt working but I still miss BeOs   ...haiku is almost identical though01:24
coz_but the name "haiky" is NOT Be Os01:24
coz_:)01:24
coz_haiku01:24
darkmatteryeah. but it comes from BeOS (I miss Be and its haiku messages)01:25
darkmatterhttp://www.zevenos.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/4058659684_f3399fc763_o.png <-- needs a better gtk theme though01:25
coz_nice:)01:26
coz_that theme isnt too bad01:27
coz_there are nicer ones though01:27
darkmattercoz_: I'd use the haiku theme thats on gnome look. has a few bugs but is more 'traditional' for the Be feel01:29
coz_darkmatter,  mm I didnt see that one ...will have to look later :)01:30
darkmattercoz_: http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Haiku?content=10695201:30
coz_darkmatter,  yeah but the title bar is across the entire window there?01:31
darkmattercoz_: no. thats metacity. if you use xfwm or sawfish (ala xfce and ZevenOS) you have the yellow tab :D01:32
coz_oh cool :)01:33
mac_vzniavre: hi.. > http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1325768/Screenshot.png ;)08:04
zniavremac_v, how did you make that ?08:17
mac_vzniavre: xchat needs you to make a usr/share/xchat/ folder and there you add the .png file :)08:18
mac_vfor some reason , xchat-gnome creates that folder on its own  , but not xchat :/08:19
zniavredo i need to create the folder if does not exists ?08:19
mac_vzniavre: it does not exist by default , we need to make one08:19
zniavrelet me try08:20
darkmatterxchat is a relic. it should be buries in museum storage next to bitchx08:20
darkmatterburied*08:21
mac_vzniavre: once you add the  /usr/share/xchat/xchat.png file just restart xchat :)08:21
zniavrehaha   :o)08:21
zniavrenice08:21
zniavrethank you08:22
mac_vzniavre: np :)08:22
zniavredo you planed to share your icon ?mine is crappy at this moment08:22
mac_vzniavre: sure , i made it for a dark panel , what kind of panel do you use?08:22
zniavredark too08:23
mac_vgreat , just a sec08:23
mac_vzniavre: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1325768/xchat.png08:24
mac_vdarkmatter: what do you use for irc?08:29
darkmattermac_v: atm, pidgin. it works well enough, plus it's a single interface instead of Yet Another App (TM)08:30
darkmatterI used to use xchat-gnome. but got sick of tray clutter and switching windows08:31
mac_vdarkmatter: hmm , pidgin works but several irc commands dont work in it ;)  when empathy irc is improved , i'd migrate to empathy :)08:31
darkmattermac_v: yeah. openSUSE is holding off on empathy as default for the same reason I'm not switching: missing basic features08:32
darkmatterI'm sure empathy will get there, but it'll take a bit08:32
zniavremac_v,  thank you08:37
mac_vnp08:38
mac_vzniavre: did you figure out vlc icon?08:39
zniavreno08:40
mac_vhmm , some devs just hardcode the tray icons :/08:40
zniavreyes08:40
zniavrehttp://img44.imageshack.us/img44/7530/capturedc.png im quite happy with this xchat icon09:15
BHSPitMonkeynice09:24
BHSPitMonkeyit'd also be nice if xchat had an official vector icon at all :(09:24
mac_vxchat doesnt use the svg icon :/  . .it requires only a .png  :(09:25
BHSPitMonkeyI'm always attracted to monochrome themes, but I find that color ultimately helps me use the UI more effectively09:26
BHSPitMonkeyI can't recognize an icon as easily in b/w09:26
mac_vhehe , the gnome-look icons are all over the place ;) some have 256x256 sizes too for a panel icon :p09:27
darkmattercolor scheme theft alert! http://customize.org/screenshots/66499/download?v=69515 :O09:29
darkmattergreat... now my google theme morphed into carrots. tummy... hurts... neeed... food :/09:33
mac_vzniavre: the icon of the bird , what app is that for?09:33
darkmatteris it orange?09:33
darkmattermac_v: pidgin crashed, cant see his link anymore. did it perhaps look like this? http://s3.amazonaws.com/satisfaction-production/s3_images/18230/songbird_inline.png09:35
mac_vdarkmatter: the bird in this > http://img44.imageshack.us/img44/7530/capturedc.png09:36
darkmatterhmmm... that looks strangely familiar. curse you monochrome!09:38
mac_vthat looks more like a teradactyl actually   ;p09:39
darkmatterlol.. I was just thinking a similar thought xD09:39
zniavre_mac_v,  the icon is for nicotine+09:43
mac_voh... no now kwwii will have the urge to go out for a smoke ;p09:43
darkmattermac_v: the most fitting nicotine+ icon I've ever seen was a package of cigarettes09:46
* mac_v tries to figure out what nicotine+ actually is for :)09:47
zniavre_its a p2p using soulseek server09:47
mac_voh...09:48
zniavre_nobodies perfect ...   :o)09:49
BHSPitMonkeyI'm noticing something strange in the Humanity theme in Karmic09:52
BHSPitMonkeyThe SVG versions of icons are in the 48x48 folder, instead of scalable/...09:53
BHSPitMonkeyIs this a new convention?09:53
BHSPitMonkeyOh, dumb me09:53
BHSPitMonkeyThey're SVGs optimized for those resolutions I guess09:53
darkmattermac_v: check the menu. much more fitting imo. http://fc09.deviantart.net/fs9/i/2006/036/2/6/Mint_2_0_by_Lokheed.png09:55
mac_vBHSPitMonkey: all icons are svgs , even the 16px :)09:56
BHSPitMonkeymac_v: \o/09:56
mac_vin humanity*09:56
BHSPitMonkeyThis pleases me09:56
BHSPitMonkeyMy iPod is going to look *slick* :P09:56
mac_vdarkmatter: the buddy list? how is the ethernet port going to signify offline ;) ?09:57
mac_vdoes the online have a wire plugged in.. ? then it would work i guess :)09:57
darkmattermac_v: the nicotine icon in the meny :P better and more appropriate metaphor than the pterodactyl. as I have no clue as to how a flying lizard is related to a chemical constituent of tobacco :P09:58
mac_vdarkmatter: oh , that.... just need to cross fingers that Marlboro doesnt sue  ;p09:59
darkmatterlol10:00
zniavre_darkmatter,  cause real soulseek.exe client10:02
BHSPitMonkeymac_v: do you know the name of the icon overlay used for symlinks?10:02
darkmatterahh10:02
BHSPitMonkey(the little "shortcut" arrow)10:02
zniavre_gnome-dev-symlink.   no ?10:03
mac_vBHSPitMonkey: emblem-symbolic-link also10:04
mac_vis used10:05
darkmatternice. my 11.2 is coming in at ~705kB/s10:05
zniavre_darkmatter,  i re-made slsk icon theme for nicotine (wich slsk author does not want them available for everybody ) http://img526.imageshack.us/img526/4167/capture1z.png10:07
darkmatterzniavre_: looks good10:07
mac_vzniavre_: the icons look good , but maintain a constant icon padding  , 3px height for 22px icons and 4px height for 24px icons10:08
zniavre_:o)   first shot in svg10:08
zniavre_mac_v,  noted !   thank you10:08
mac_vzniavre_: 22px always start from 3px , try to finish with a top padding of 3px but if required use one more px but not more than that... keep at minimum 2px padding. the 24px is just the 22px icons with added padding of 1px around them10:10
