neversfeldemhh, we probably patched away amarok's last.fm icons00:12
Riddellwe did?00:12
RiddellI still see them00:13
Riddellmaybe they won't show on Gnome but I don't think Gnome does menu icons anyway00:13

lex79Riddell: ehehe that bug took me so long time to figure out and one second to fix00:20
lex79:)00:21
ryanakcaScottK: CMakeLists.txt explicitly refers to libinfinity-0.3 . Should I patch to -0.4 or should we drop libqinfinity/kobby from lucid?00:22
geniiI'm reminded of the printing-press repairman. Comes in, looks around for 8-10 hours. Takes a little mallet inside of the printing press, taps 2-3 times and fixes everything. Hearst says "why should I pay you $20,000 ? I could tap something with a hammer"  repairman says: "Yes, but would you know where to tap it?"00:24

Tm_Thi manchicken (:11:41

Tm_Tindeed, been wondering what happened to you11:41
manchickenThese "toddler" things are time-consuming.11:41
Riddellget them coding, that's the answer11:42
manchickenHah!11:42
Tm_Ttoddler?11:42
manchickenHe wouldn't mind it, that's for sure :)11:42
manchickenYeah, you don't remember?11:42
Tm_TI don't know what that word means11:42
manchickenMy wife tested positive for children during UDS-Sevilla in May of 2007.11:42
manchickenToddler, a rather small child.11:42
Tm_TI see, congrats11:42
Riddellbaby who's starting to walk/crawl11:43
manchickenThis one's starting to use computers.11:43
Tm_Tmanchicken: we have a 1 year 4 months old daughter here (:11:43
manchickenAnd pinching iPhones...11:43
manchickenVery nice :)11:43
Tm_Tand she already learnt to use keyb and mouse11:43
Tm_T...unfortunately11:43
manchickenMy boy just grabs anything with buttons and starts pushing.11:43
Tm_Taye11:43
manchickenDoesn't matter what it is.11:43
manchickenI've also been playing with a lot of non-Kubuntu-related techs.11:44
Tm_TI have noticed the same11:44
manchickenI've been on the OS X happy path for a little over a year now... which is nice since I haven't had much time, and since my current employer is very Mac-friendly.11:44
manchickenIt's not the same though... I often miss writing software under the direction of Scotsmen and Frenchmen.11:45
manchickenThough I often wonder if my new-found love for Objective-C would fare well in the Kubuntu world.11:46
manchickenI'm fetching 10.04 as we speak, to be installed in boot-camp on this spectacular new 500GB hard drive I picked up two weeks ago.11:47
manchickenI know there's GNUStep... but it's just so ugly.11:48
manchickenÉtoile looks better, but it's still pretty ugly.11:48
manchickenRiddell: What sort of stuff have you guys been talking about for the next go-round?11:55
manchickenSucks... they're going to make me burn the ISO to disc to install it...12:03
Riddellmanchicken: we haven't started looking at Maverick yet12:07
manchickenOooh, you all have named this one after Sarah Palin have you?12:07

debfxRiddell: the current brightness patch doesn't do anything anymore as the hal property brightness_in_hardware is set to true by default in lucid12:09
Tonio_I'm giving up on the qt cursor thing.... too hard :'(12:10
debfxRiddell: the old patch checked that property as a workaround because some laptops (mainly the MSI Wind, which is fixed in Lucid) send brightness key events on every change12:10
Riddelldebfx: I see12:16
Riddelldebfx: I think we should get your patch upstream before patching our packages12:17
Riddellsince it's partly agateau's code I wonder if he'd be able to help with that12:17
manchickenDookie... I nabbed the wrong image.12:21
debfxbefore the patch can go upstream the osdwidget class needs to be put in a place where both kmix and the battery applet can use it12:22

Tonio_HU ??????????? seems that's the fix12:22
Tonio_strange it's not in the stable branch yet, but that seems to do exactly what I wanted to.... Testing12:23
manchickenSad, nobody's seeding the beta1 torrent right now...12:28
Riddellbeta 1 is old news, everyone is waiting for beta 212:30
manchickenI'm just trying to get something I can throw into boot camp that isn't going to take another two hours to update.12:30
manchickenThat said, it's still probably futile.12:30
manchickenI'll probably do that anyway :)12:30
* Riddell away for weekend12:31
manchickenhttp://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/23489/ <-- I wonder if solution #1 on this idea is even possible. I suppose we'd need to first be able to cross-compile to the A4.12:33
manchickenI guess there'd then have to be some sort of hardware driver for the multi-touch interface. That'd be neat if it could be pulled off though.12:35
apparleI am trying to solve the problem of kopete and gtalk.  I am gettting this error when running Kopete from konsole "Unknown signature value:  795 "12:40
apparleIt is followed by "kopete(3652)/kopete (jabber - raw protocol) JabberAccount::slotClientDebugMessage: "Client stream error.""12:40
manchickenSounds like a TLS issue, no?12:40
manchickengtalk does use TLS, no?12:41

apparlemanchicken: I'll check12:42
manchickenI would think it's a default install, but it has been a while.12:42
apparlemanchicken: no12:43
manchickenI do believe you'll need qca-tls, but then again, as I said before, it has been a while.12:43

manchickenJust checking :)12:49
manchickenI'm throwing 10.04 on bootcamp, I'll be in it shortly.12:49
manchickenI can see if I can replicate. I'll also check LP for a bug.12:49
apparlemanchicken: I am getting this error for specific condidtions12:50
manchickenWhich conditions?12:50
manchickenIt doesn't appear as though this exists in LP.12:50
apparlemanchicken: I am using "talk.google.com" host and "443" port12:50
manchickenThat's what I would expect.12:50
manchicken443 is the SSL/TLS port, talk.google.com is the host for gtalk.12:50
apparlemanchicken: normal ports are blocked by college firewall12:50
apparlemanchicken: what's a bootcamp12:50
manchickenbootcamp is the utility in Mac OS X for booting into multiple operating systems.12:51
apparlemanchicken: normally its gmail.com and 5222/5223 so I told you12:51
manchickenInteresting.12:51
apparlemanchicken: by default its like that12:52
apparleand I have to override the default host/port for the one I mentioned above12:52
manchickenAccording to google 443 is also an acceptable port for that, so I would doubt there'd be any issue.12:52
manchickenYeah, but I doubt the port number would make that difference, I'll have to test that once I'm up and running.12:52
manchickenEspecially since Google says 443 is a supported port number.12:53
manchickenI'm going to be booting into the installer now... hopefully I didn't screw up and download the wrong image again :)12:53
apparlemanchicken: my friend has a non- firewalled internet and for him the default setup (gmail.com 5222) works fine12:54

Tm_TI'm afraid that current Maemo SDK won't work in Intrepid properly13:26

amichairis there any supported upgrade path to lucid other than from karmic?13:45
Tm_Tamichair: and Hardy, no13:45
Tm_Tthose two only13:45

manchickenYeah, trying to get it running without wires.13:56

manchickenI'm running on a unibody mbp, it's not showing any drivers at all...14:05
manchickenI expected some for the nvidia as well as the broadcom.14:05
Tm_Tamichair: I would, but I find chat messages being something more of a flow of text, not actual "writing"14:05
amichairTm_T: true, that's why I sometimes do and sometimes don't too.14:06
ScottKamichair: With a few exceptions when texting my teenagers, I capitalize text messsages on my phone too.14:06
manchickenAs do I.14:06
amichairBut then, I'm beginning some RSI symptoms, so trying to go easy on the shift key. At least it makes for a good excuse ;-)14:07
* ScottK just uses rsibreak14:07
manchickenExcept that I don't have any teenagers... I only have the two-year-old who sends incoherent gibberish text messages.14:07
amichairScottK: is that a take-a-break reminder? or something more clever?14:07
ScottKThe former, although it can get pretty aggressive about enforcement.14:08
amichairmanchicken: at what age do kids get a phone nowadays?14:08
Tm_Tlike, throw you out of the office14:08
amichairScottK: interesting, like locking u out for a while?14:08

amichairinterestingly, the first RSI symptom I ever got was after fixing a software-properties bug which caused it to crash inconsistently after a bunch of mouse clicks (select/deselect entries). At least the bug got fixed...14:13
manchickenAh, I remember those conversations with my parents when I was in highschool.14:13

itguruHey devs! How you doing, sorry to invade your room, but you guys kicked butt with KDE 4.4 - I gotta tell you something to make you feel good17:12
itgurui run fedora, and just for kicks, i decided to check if yum could install all the dependencies of kde without screwing up gnome - spent weeks getting eye candy17:13
itguruIt worked and KDE installed clean, and I thought after a few days to give it a shot -- and it blew my mind17:13
itguruafter 2 minutes, all by devs asked my what i had installed, and where could they get it, now we all run a kde desktop17:14
apparleTm_T: When I run it through konsole I see many things out of while these two seem significant "Unknown signature value:  795" and "kopete(8436)/kopete (jabber - raw protocol) JabberAccount::slotClientDebugMessage: "Client stream error.""17:14
Tm_Tapparle: hmh, some error, unfortunately I don't know that17:14
apparleTm_T: I can connect if I use PSI or Pidgin17:15

apparlefreinhard: can you try one last thing.... plz onnect through a proxy17:23
apparlefreinhard: because I am behind an http proxy17:24
freinhardaint got no proxy17:24
apacheloggerapparle: talk to you network administrator, that will be much a faster solution17:24
apacheloggerbut from above error message it sounds to me as if the firewall does bad things to the SSL stream17:24
apacheloggerwho knows what madness gets applied17:24
apacheloggeritguru: :)17:25

Tm_Tapachelogger: I use neither17:26
apparleapachelogger: if psi and pidgin can... why can't kopete17:27
apparleapachelogger: I also love qtcreator17:27
apacheloggermaybe psi and pidgin are unsecure :P17:27
apacheloggerclearly there is something wrong with the xmpp data kopete receives17:28
apacheloggerapparle: does the proxy require authentification?17:28
* apachelogger remembers that the MS firewall thingy is rather annoying in this regard17:28
apparleapachelogger: no17:28

apacheloggernot that we are more on topic otherwise ^^17:30

apacheloggerwell, if the support people do not know help with that kind of problem, then we dont for sure17:32

apacheloggermaybe kbluetooth installed ;)17:41
apparleapachelogger: yes I have it17:42

ubottuLaunchpad bug 554080 in kdebase-workspace "Plasma task bar crashes when selecting a task" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/55408017:43
apacheloggerboth then17:43
apacheloggerapparle: please write a mail to those two explaining the situation, referfing to the bug, and asking them to resolve this upstream17:44
apacheloggeri.e. add a NoDisplay=true to the desktop file17:44
apparlealright17:44
apacheloggeras for that NoDisplay... it's behaviour is defined in the freedesktop.org desktop entry spec17:44
apacheloggerkubotu: google desktop entry spec17:44
kubotuResults for desktop entry spec: 1. Desktop Entry Specification: http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/latest/ | 2. Desktop Entry Specification: http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/desktop-entry-spec-latest.html | 3. freedesktop.org - Specifications/desktop-entry-spec: http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Specifications/desktop-entry-spec17:44
apacheloggerin that thingy the basic concept of desktop files is defined + a set of standard keys is defined17:45
apacheloggersuch as NoDisplay17:45
apacheloggerlarsivi_: you know that filing this kind of bug in launchpad will result in JontheEchidna or me closing it?17:46
larsivi_apachelogger: nope - why?17:47
apacheloggerbecause it is an issue in upstream source, and we are not fixing upstream bugs due to lack of men power17:47
apacheloggeralso see https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/Specs/LucidBugTriagePolicy17:48
larsivi_apachelogger: I may very well be wrong of course, but it appears to me that this started happening unrelated to a plasma-update17:49
apacheloggeryeah17:49
apacheloggerbecause the crash is not in plasma at all17:49
apacheloggerbut in the kde pixmap caching code17:49
larsivi_ok17:50
apacheloggerlarsivi_: is  your partition maybe full?17:50
larsivi_far from it17:50
apacheloggerlarsivi_: also you could try chown -Rv $USER:$USER ~/.kde17:50
apacheloggersince the most recent call within the KDE stack seems to be in a function named writeData it is more than likely that the data could for whatever reason not be writte17:51
apacheloggern17:51
larsivi_I ran the chown - will note if I observe the crash again17:52
apacheloggerof chown doesnt work either you could try mv ~/.kde/cache-logos/kpc/ ~/17:52
apacheloggerthat will move your current pixmap cache to your home17:52
apacheloggerso it should be recreated completely17:53
larsivi_apachelogger: anyway - I'm curious about the policy to close bugs that are reported upstream - I thought the point of the nice linking functionality in launchpad was to have an easy way of seeing which bugs affect ubuntu, which you in no way can have if they're only reported upstream17:54
apacheloggerhow is that interesting to us?17:55
ScottKlarsivi_: What we need then is people to do all the work of linking and upstreaming.17:55
apacheloggerfor most of the bugs it is nothing but maintenance17:55
apacheloggerlooking at it every once in a while, closing it once fixed, getting to know that they were fixed...17:55
larsivi_ScottK: well, in this case I created the upstream bug, and then linked it17:55
apacheloggerthe tracking in launchpad is just of no use17:56
ScottKRight, but in general.17:56
ScottKNow if it gets fixed, someone will have to remember to close the LP bug when the fix gets uploaded to Ubuntu17:56
larsivi_ScottK: hmm, right - I thought it would be like someone being notified through LP when an upstream bug was closed such that the fix could be uploaded17:57
larsivi_if that isn't the way things happens, then I can see that there is little use17:57
ScottKExcept for important bug fixes we normally wait until KDE releases an update17:57
apparleapachelogger: so should I send them a new .desktop file or should I ask them to add NoDisplay=true17:57
apacheloggerapparle: a modified desktop file, if at all, or even better a diff to the existing one ;)17:58
apacheloggerapparle: up to you17:58
apacheloggerlarsivi_: if we had 100 developers that might be a possible work flow ^^17:59
apacheloggerunfortunately we dont :)17:59
apacheloggerlarsivi_: but if you are interested in become one...17:59
apparleapachelogger: how to generate a diff.. just use the one in my menu, creat a new one and then use diff on them?17:59
* apachelogger is currently looking for people to annoy with all his almighty knowledge ;)17:59
apacheloggerapparle: yes, except you shouldnt use the one in your menu17:59
larsivi_apachelogger, ScottK: ah well, I won't ever do such a thing again :) However, being a project owner elsewhere in open source land (admittedly a much much smaller project), I  do like such reports (although they're not really upstream bugs but more like compiler bugs affecting the project)18:00
apacheloggerapparle: that just made me think of something...18:00
Tm_Tapachelogger: a banana?18:00
apacheloggerno18:00
apparle:D18:00
apacheloggerapparle: first lecture of the day ... how do i list package content18:00
apacheloggeranswer: dpkg -L18:01
apacheloggere.g. dpkg -L kbluetooth18:01
larsivi_apachelogger: I ocassionally opens kde source, but I'm afraid I have to many things on my plate too :)18:01
apacheloggerapparle: that could be extended to dpkg -L kbluetooth | grep .desktop18:01
apacheloggerwhat do you see when you run that cmd?18:01
apparleapachelogger: just the files with contain ".desktop" in them18:01
apparleapachelogger: :D18:02

apacheloggerapparle: to answer your original question as to which one to create a diff with ... yes, the one in usr/share/applications18:04
apacheloggerBUT18:04
apacheloggerapparle: my report says that the problem is that kbluetooth is autostarted and thus the entry in the menu is ugly and stupid18:05

larsivi_apachelogger: here I asked a person working at qt berlin, and he suggested sending the bug to LP ;)18:06
apacheloggerif only danimo was around :S18:06
apacheloggerlarsivi_: that sounds more like a bug in the config18:07
larsivi_apachelogger: I apt-get install'ed it, then tried to start - I've never actually used it18:07
apacheloggerlarsivi_: well, you should try with a new user18:08
apacheloggerbecause it worked here last I used the old stinky 1.3 build :P18:08
apacheloggerJontheEchidna: I am glad to report that now my buttons from knh are all messed up18:09
apacheloggeralways these plasma bugs :/18:09
apacheloggerlarsivi_: starts just fine here :S18:10

apparlewhy is the krunner responding very slowly.. it takes 4-5 seconds to execute a command18:11
apparleapachelogger: any specific parameters I should use for diff18:17
apacheloggerapparle: I like diff -urNad18:17
apacheloggerapparle: also, note my questions :P18:17
apparleapachelogger: its useless so hide it18:18
apacheloggerapparle: so I suppose instead we should ask upstream to drop it18:18
apacheloggerapparle: or maybe add NotShowIn=kde ... so that it at least doesnt show in KDE's menu18:19
apacheloggerthat is also a key defined in the desktop entry spec18:19
apparleapachelogger: no the application is there, so we should not delete it. if it autostarts in gnome, then showing it in gnome is also not useful18:20
apacheloggerapparle: so one should find out if gnome does autostart it18:20
apacheloggerbecause I dont think gnome autostarts stuff from /usr/share/autostart/18:20
apparleapachelogger: where does it autostart then? "/etc/xdg/autostart" google says this.. ? but I am not sure18:27
apacheloggerapparle: gnome autostarts from there, kde does too18:27
apacheloggerquestion is if gnome also autostarts if the file is in /usr/share/autostart18:28
Tm_Tdoesn't IIRC18:28
apacheloggerin that case18:28
apacheloggerapparle: not show in kde18:28
apacheloggeri think it is also undesired to have it autostart in gnome18:28
apparleapachelogger: then NoDisplay is better18:28
apacheloggerno18:29
apacheloggerthen you can boot it altogether18:29
apacheloggernodisplay is good for nothing but if you want to hide something18:29
apacheloggerand since kbluetooth does not autostart in gnome it makes perfect sense that it shows up in its menu18:30
apparleapachelogger: then... notshowin=kde in the application .desktop and notshownin=gnome in autostart file18:30
apacheloggerapparle: according to Tm_T gnome does not autostart from /usr/share/autostart anyway18:30
apparleapachelogger: so a simple notshowin=kde is enough18:32
