JontheEchidnanew k3b upload saves 0.7 mb live cd space \o/00:45
Lex79I hope this means kffmpegthumbnailer on the CD :P00:47
neversfeldeI hoe ffmpegthumbnailer makes less problems for people out there than for me00:49
JontheEchidnawe're still 3 MB over00:49
Lex79:(00:50
JontheEchidnaand probably need 4 MB less to make a safe iso00:50
JontheEchidnawe were just about there until virtuoso came and added 3.5 MB more00:50
Lex79is it built with lzma compression?00:51
JontheEchidnaprobably not, that'd be something to look in to00:52
Lex79JontheEchidna: it's not http://launchpadlibrarian.net/38505606/virtuoso-opensource_5.0.12-0ubuntu3.diff.gz00:54
JontheEchidnaLex79: Switching would help alleviate some pain, but we'd still have to find clever ways to shrink things elsewhere01:01
Lex79of course01:11
neversfeldeJontheEchidna: is this new kdm theme default for 4.4 or not? Sorry, my bad english seems to prevet me from understandig your post on the list.01:13
JontheEchidnaneversfelde: It would have been, but it was too late for 4.401:14
neversfeldeok01:14
Lex79I don't understand why not a kde theme with kubuntu logo ;(01:15
Lex79*kdm01:15
neversfeldeI think we should brand a little bit and I would love to have a theme accepted by the kde artwork team that is probably not 100% upstream01:16
JontheEchidnashtylman has a kubuntu logo and a kde logo version of the theme01:17
neversfeldebut I thought that we have a policy which does not accept it for lucid01:17
Lex79just break the policy01:17
Lex79:P01:17
JontheEchidnawell, the policy is that the artwork is either upstream or is approved by upstream01:18
JontheEchidnaand it has been approved by upstream01:18
neversfeldeok, sound good, so use shtylman kubuntu version of kdm's theme01:19
ScottKJontheEchidna: Thanks.01:19
neversfeldeI really like it01:19
JontheEchidnaWhat I like about his theme the best is that it actually has a login button :P01:19
neversfeldeand I also like of kubuntu branding if KDE likes it too01:20
Lex79yeah01:20
neversfeldea bit01:20
JontheEchidnaYeah, a little bit of branding is no problem. We're still using the default wallpaper for the background, and the dialog itself is themed to fit in with the default plasma theme01:21
neversfeldewe need a custom color like suse :D01:21
JontheEchidnaThey let openSUSE turn their background a putrid green, so I'd hope they'd let us stick in a logo on the login screen ;P01:21
neversfeldeI propose orange :D01:21
Lex79JontheEchidna: you know, the real problem is make a decision :P01:22
JontheEchidna(and my favorite color is green)01:22
Lex79me too01:22
Lex79I like opensuse for his green theme :P01:22
JontheEchidnabut I find the green air wallpaper... blegh01:22
Lex79I don't like that01:23
neversfeldeSusis and KDE chose the right way, We should do branding klike they did01:23
neversfeldeunforunatley we are blue ;)01:23
neversfeldeso, we can only do minor changes01:23
shtylmanJontheEchidna neversfelde: I have actually removed the kde logo altogether as per request of pinheiro: http://www.shtylman.com/stuff/kdm_latest.png ... we can put it back for kubuntu if we want... but just letting yall know the route upstream is taking03:37
Lex79shtylman: why not with kubuntu logo?03:43
shtylmanLex79: pinheiro isn't too fond of it... and with the new wallpaper it might make the whole scene a bit more "crowded"03:45
shtylmani.e. another element to distract you03:45
shtylmanthis way it stays simpler03:45
shtylmanfocusing on the task at hand...and that is to login03:45
Lex79ok, I understand03:46
ScottKLooks good to me, but what do I know ....04:02
=== dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates
superm1ScottK, in fixing the ubiquity KDE frontend i had some feedback; you should only show that uBlog thing if there is enough space on the desktop.  it makes it really hard to double click the install icon: http://imagebin.org/8279707:37
ghostcubeo/08:24
ScottKsuperm1: Makes sense.  shtylman: Can we do that?11:26
tumaixPpl, I'm having a lot of issues on kubuntu 9.10 + kde4 from the ppa,11:27
tumaixnot on crashes or anithing, but, well, My app doesn't work as expected11:28
tumaixbut it does work in the other major distros ( tested on fedora, opensuse, mandriva and archilinux )11:28
tumaixI'm not sure where the problem is, in kubuntu, but I think it's something related to QtScript.11:29
ghostcubetumaix: do you run Qt 4.6 as well dont know if the other distros ship 4.6 too11:51
tumaixghostcube: yes, I'm on qt 4.6, the others are using 4.6 too since I need it to compile and run.12:00
ghostcubehmm then i dont know :) but it was just a guess i think the others in here have more ideas about12:00
tumaixghostcube: what I cant* tell you is if the people that tested on the other distros are using a compiled-by-hand version of qt.12:00
tumaixghostcube: the major problem for me is that I cant test my own app in my machine, because I got unexpected errors ( like a 'undefined' in the QtScript console, without saying the line error, but without doing the job too )12:01
ghostcubetumaix: uh sounds not good, i think the guys doing the qt packaging arent on or afk12:02
ghostcubeso stay in a bit i think they will tell you12:02
tumaixghostcube: can you point me who they are, so I know which one to ping? =)12:07
ghostcubeio would start with Riddell or JontheEchidna :)12:07
ghostcubethey could tell you i think so12:07
JontheEchidnaI'm not really knowledgable on QtScript12:07
tumaixJontheEchidna: but can you try to reproduce my issue? ;)12:11
JontheEchidnanot knowledgable enough :D12:11
JontheEchidnaIf you gave me step-by-step instructions, maybe. But I also have to leave for class in a few minutes12:13
tumaixif you package KDE, you already have everything there.12:13
tumaixsince it's a kde app.12:13
tumaixdo you have kdeedu sources there?12:13
tumaixall that you need to do is run one app + one example.12:15
tumaixthe expected result in kubuntu is that it will do nothing. -.-'12:15
JontheEchidnawhich app?>12:17
tumaixRocs,12:19
tumaixclick in the node tool, add a bunch of them,12:19
tumaixrandomly connect them with edges12:19
tumaixthen go file -> script -> open, travel to rocs sources -> src -> Scripts -> coloring.js12:20
tumaixand click in 'run'12:20
JontheEchidnawill look at it later, I have to go now.12:20
tumaixow, well.12:20
tumaixso I will poke Riddell, ping ;)12:23
neversfeldetumaix: I have no coloring.js on my system after installing rocs12:59
tumaixneversfelde: it's only in the sources.13:12
tumaixused for internal debugging ;)13:12
shtylmanScottK: I *think* there is a programatic way to hide widgets .. but im not sure... we could just disable that one altogether.13:14
tumaixshtylman: widget.hide();13:14
shtylmantumaix: but can I do that from an external program? not the widget code itself...13:18
neversfeldetumaix: I cannot reproduce the bug with our current development version13:18
shtylmanI realize I can hide it from the widget code13:18
shtylmanScottK: I guess the uBlog code would have to be modified to be smart about desktop size13:18
tumaixneversfelde: you mean that the nodes are being collored?13:20
neversfeldetumaix: yes, two of them turned red13:20
tumaixneversfelde: hm....13:21
tumaixI'm using 9.10 + 4.4 ppa13:21
neversfeldeprobably a problem with the ppa packages13:21
neversfeldesorry, I cannot test, because I have no Karmic here at the moment13:21
tumaixwell, if it's a problem with the ppa packages, it's a great relief.13:21
tumaixI was worried =)13:21
tumaixthanks for your time13:21
Quintasanhmm anyone can suggest me a DAMN GOOD wireless set (mouse and keyboard)?13:35
neversfeldeQuintasan: I have a cherry g260 set, it is very good13:38
Quintasanneversfelde: how much did you pay?13:40
neversfeldeQuintasan: I can't remember, it is an older one, so it shouldn't be that expensive anymore13:41
rbelemQuintasan, http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/keyboards/keyboard/devices/192&cl=us,en14:02
rbelemQuintasan, a wireless keyboard with touchpad :-)14:03
Quintasanrbelem: my wrists hurt, just a little more and they will sue me to European Court for violating human laws14:04
Quintasan:P14:04
rbelemeheheh14:04
Quintasanrbelem: besides I have a tablet so no need for a touchpad14:10
ZoraelAmarok in the beta ppa crashes upon startup, and I'm not sure it's Amarok's fault or if some library update from another ppa is causing it. Would anyone mind taking a look at the kcrash at http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/366861 ?14:16
Tm_TZorael: does reinstall of phonon help?14:16
ZoraelTm_T: I reinstalled phonon-backend-xine, haven't tried the main phonon package yet, one moment14:17
rbelemQuintasan, it is nice to think the fact I don't need to move my entire arm, just need to move my fingers, and i don't need to carry a mouse14:18
rbelem:-)14:18
rbelemi would like to have one :-)14:18
ZoraelTm_T: Still crashes. It draws the entire UI (sans playlist and file entries), and then closes and DrKonqi pops up14:19

Riddellno but it's only early o'clock in the US16:52
Quintasanwell, I don't have sleeping included in my plans for next 3 days or so :P16:53
Quintasan4.4 tags on 4th Feb, right?16:53
Riddellyes indeed16:53
neversfeldeI guess we are not planning to backport the rc3?16:54
Riddellneversfelde: I don't think it's a priority16:56
RiddellQuintasan: did you look into changing input method for qt?16:58
QuintasanRiddell: yes, it is not a problem if you have installed with japanese locale16:59
Quintasanlocale is jp_JP and uim automatically picks that17:00
Quintasanif you want to use japanese output and you have different locale (like me) you need to install for eg. uim and uim-anthy then do im-switch -v -z pl_PL -c and select uim17:00
=== dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates
Riddellubottu: what is uim?17:01
ubottuI am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)17:01
Riddellhuh?17:01
RiddellQuintasan: what is uim?17:01
QuintasanRiddell:  it's a input method system17:02
Quintasanlike IBus or SKIM17:03
Quintasanactually ibus-anthy fails at kanji, as soon as you press enter to accept (with space you switch kanjis) they disappear17:03
Quintasanprops to Zorael go for that17:03
RiddellQuintasan: I'm confused.  doesn't kimpanel support ibus now and that's what we want to use?17:04
QuintasanRiddell: I don't know if we can solve it on software-level. I can write a page on wiki for this if neccessary17:05
QuintasanRiddell: I've tried with ibus, didn't work :(17:05
Riddellfreeflying: you're not in portland are you?17:05
RiddellQuintasan: I don't have uim listed in the right click menu for line edits17:05
QuintasanI tried selecting different IM in im-switch but the panel itself doesn't offer any option for anthy17:05
QuintasanRiddell: you will need to install it17:06
QuintasanRiddell: sudo aptitude install uim uim-qt uim-anthy anthy17:06
