| Riddell | /usr/share/applications/kde4/cantor_part.desktop is the problem | 00:10 |
| Riddell | I wonder what the solution is | 00:10 |
| lex79 | I knew the problem... :) | 00:11 |
| Riddell | that file should be in /usr/share/kde4/services/ I think | 00:11 |
| Riddell | try moving it there and seeing if everything still works | 00:11 |
| lex79 | ok Riddell | 00:11 |
| lex79 | Riddell: do you have time to upload kdemultimedia? | 00:12 |
| Riddell | can do | 00:12 |
| lex79 | thanks | 00:12 |
| Riddell | CMakeLists.txt will want install( FILES cantor_part.desktop DESTINATION ${SERVICES_INSTALL_DIR} ) | 00:13 |
| JontheEchidna | lex79: the .desktop file also needs an entry "Type=Service" | 00:13 |
| lex79 | JontheEchidna: there is already | 00:14 |
| JontheEchidna | Ah, it's near the bottom. Missed it | 00:14 |
| lex79 | strange, cmakelist is ok but the desktop file goes in the wrong place, bah | 00:16 |
| Riddell | install( FILES cantor_part.desktop DESTINATION ${XDG_APPS_INSTALL_DIR} ) | 00:17 |

| ScottK | JontheEchidna: Want to revert that one? | 02:40 |
| JontheEchidna | ...it's tempting | 02:40 |
| ScottK | The upload was a technical breach of string freeze, so if it's KDE3 docs, might be just as well to get rid of them. | 02:43 |

| ScottK | OK. I'll have a look when it's up. | 02:48 |
| ScottK | Is it just me or does clicking on "Details" when kpackagekit is upgrading packages not actually provide any additional details, but just a throbber bar? | 02:50 |

| ScottK | amichair: Please file a bug at b.k.o. | 02:52 |

| apachelogger | in fact it does currently not even imply that one should get it into upstream first and then create a patch of the code included in upstream, which IMHO is a perferred work flow since upstream maintainers usually add some special extra that makes the feature faster or something | 09:18 |

| apachelogger | + there is more breakage anyway | 20:33 |
| apachelogger | config restoring doesnt work at all IIRC | 20:33 |
| * apachelogger doesnt wanna hack with that code style ^^ | 20:34 | |
| apachelogger | oh oh oh, maybe i understand... | 20:35 |
| apachelogger | one screen can have multiple outputs | 20:35 |
| apachelogger | I am not sure what an output is though | 20:35 |
| apachelogger | and why krandrtray would set the resolution on a per-output basis | 20:36 |
| apachelogger | omg there is even a display entity ^^ | 20:38 |
| apachelogger | hm | 20:39 |
| apachelogger | I actually think i know why the kcm is not working | 20:40 |
| apachelogger | there is a whole bunch of commented out code that is as far as I understand responsible for altering the output objects | 20:40 |
| apachelogger | that said, it is also responsible to set the information necessary to reset the outputs | 20:40 |
| apachelogger | which is exactly the part that is commented out | 20:41 |
| DarkwingDuck | Happy Easter to all | 20:41 |
| * apachelogger notes that it is also VERY difficult to read code on a netbook screen -.- | 20:41 | |
| apachelogger | DarkwingDuck: happy easter to you too :) | 20:41 |
| DarkwingDuck | apachelogger: how are things? | 20:42 |
| apachelogger | DarkwingDuck: ScottK mad me read ugly code, which makes me think that he supports me in my madness ^^ | 20:47 |
| DarkwingDuck | I think I can dig up some old PERL code for you | 20:48 |
| apachelogger | PERL!!! | 20:49 |
| DarkwingDuck | :D | 20:50 |
| Sput | ♥ Perl ♥ | 20:54 |
| apachelogger | Sput: go make proper kde emoticon support :P | 20:56 |
| apachelogger | ohhh | 20:56 |
| apachelogger | kcmshell(14365) RandROutput::tryCrtc: Failed to change output "LVDS1" to CRTC 64 | 20:56 |
| apachelogger | kcmshell(14365) RandROutput::tryCrtc: Switching back to old CRTC 64 | 20:57 |
| apachelogger | that does look weird, doenst it ^^ | 20:57 |
| apachelogger | ah | 20:59 |
| apachelogger | I dont get that thing | 20:59 |
| * apachelogger closes gdb before something bad happens | 20:59 | |
| DarkwingDuck | :D | 20:59 |
| DarkwingDuck | come one... you broke akonadi for me to fix it :P | 20:59 |
| apachelogger | hm | 21:00 |
| apachelogger | kcmshell(14365) RandRCrtc::applyProposed: Proposed CRTC rect: QRect(0,0 0x0) | 21:00 |
| apachelogger | I blame the config stuff | 21:00 |
| apachelogger | ScottK: eventually that is all because the config stuff is busted | 21:00 |
| DarkwingDuck | aka it's your fault | 21:00 |
| apachelogger | well, not the button focus | 21:00 |
| apachelogger | I am not sure where that comes from though | 21:00 |
| apachelogger | DarkwingDuck: excluded from the rule is code that uses ugly style :P | 21:01 |
| apachelogger | and that is code with ugly style | 21:01 |
| DarkwingDuck | ahh, that's your scape-goat? | 21:01 |
| apachelogger | and patches! | 21:02 |
| DarkwingDuck | Okay, I really think I need to take some c++ courses. | 21:03 |
| DarkwingDuck | Or something to learn | 21:03 |
| Quintasan | apachelogger: I can't get KOffice to build, it fails to find libkexiutils.so.6. I'm sure that it is inside kexi.install file but somehow it fails each time -> http://pastebin.ca/1856852 | 21:14 |
| apachelogger | Quintasan: Note: libraries are not searched in other binary packages that do not have any shlibs or symbols file. | 21:15 |
| Quintasan | @_@ | 21:15 |
| Quintasan | apachelogger: so kexi libs should actually go to koffice-libs.install> | 21:15 |
| Quintasan | ? | 21:15 |
| apachelogger | you should know that :P | 21:16 |
| apachelogger | it is possible | 21:16 |
| apachelogger | and would solve the issue | 21:16 |
| Quintasan | what about those shlibs or symbols file? | 21:16 |
| apachelogger | but what the note there says is that other packages must be processed before koffice-libs so that it can find the others | 21:16 |
| ScottK | apachelogger: Would you please some up your krandrtray/kcm findings in the bug so I can upstream it with maximum informaiton. | 21:17 |
| apachelogger | ScottK: actually I didnt find out anything useful | 21:18 |
| Quintasan | apachelogger: ^^ | 21:20 |
| apachelogger | ScottK: all I can say that it is one messy code | 21:20 |
| Quintasan | DarkwingDuck: lern python if you want to troll apachelogger | 21:21 |
| apachelogger | and that the issue is probably somewhere in the actual restoring portion of thecode | 21:21 |
| Quintasan | apachelogger luvs python | 21:21 |
| ScottK | OK. | 21:21 |
| apachelogger | here it however sent the approiate signals ... so it actually noticed that I cancled/timed out | 21:22 |
| apachelogger | it just did fail to revert back | 21:22 |
| apachelogger | and that is IMHO because of the unified approach to doing this | 21:22 |
| * apachelogger thinks about getting home tomorrow | 21:23 | |
| apachelogger | I am even less useful on a netbook :P | 21:23 |
| DarkwingDuck | :P | 21:23 |
| Quintasan | apachelogger: you should feel like you were poked with a stick very moment ago, what about those shlibs files? | 21:25 |
| apachelogger | Quintasan: post0r your debian dir | 21:38 |
| AzureDragon | Hello, I'm a student considering applying for the Google Summer of Code. For one of the Kubuntu-related projects I mean. I thought I'd come and say hi. :D | 21:39 |
| Quintasan | apachelogger: I copy pasted the libs from kexi.install to koffice-libs.install and it worked, but here, anyways -> http://dl.dropbox.com/u/69524/koffice_2.1.81-0ubuntu1.debian.tar.gz | 21:41 |
| apachelogger | mh mh | 21:42 |
| apachelogger | Quintasan: must go to koffice-libs because kexi depends koffice-libs, if they are in kexi then ko-libs depends kexi and kexi depends ko-libs | 21:43 |
| apachelogger | hi AzureDragon | 21:43 |
| AzureDragon | apachelogger: hi | 21:43 |
| Quintasan | awesome | 21:43 |
| Quintasan | AzureDragon: \o | 21:44 |
| apachelogger | Quintasan: on the other hand... | 21:44 |
| apachelogger | Quintasan: something might be in ko-libs that does not belong there to begin with :P | 21:45 |
| apachelogger | and that is the root of all this evil | 21:45 |
| AzureDragon | Hey I was looking at the KPackageKit project proposal.., Does Kubuntu use the kPackageKit source from the KDE SVN? Or a modified version for Kubuntu? | 21:46 |
| JontheEchidna | AzureDragon: It's the same as what's in kdesvn, with a few patches to integrate things such as our sources.list editor | 21:51 |
| JontheEchidna | Though we are using KPK 0.5 rather than 0.6, since 0.6 is an API/ABI unstable version at the moment | 21:52 |
| Quintasan | AzureDragon: if you have access to lucid machine running lucid I'm sure you can do apt-get source kpackagekit and check things out | 21:52 |
| Quintasan | lucid machine running lucid :O | 21:52 |
| Quintasan | awesome error is awesome | 21:52 |
| AzureDragon | Quintasan: my main desktop is running Lucid. :) | 21:53 |
| Quintasan | AzureDragon: fabulous, so grab the source already and start hacking :P | 21:53 |
| AzureDragon | Quintasan: That was something else I was gonna ask. Is knowledge of Qt/C++ a requirement for doing a project like that one in GsoC? I haven't used ether (that being said, I do know how to program, and I am willing to learn as fast as necessary). | 21:55 |
| Quintasan | AzureDragon: I bet C++ and Qt will be required. | 21:56 |
| Quintasan | After all KDE is using Qt framework so... | 21:56 |
| Quintasan | :P | 21:56 |
| Quintasan | But hey, cpp + qt = magic, you can work on killer apps like Digikam or Choqok | 21:57 |
| AzureDragon | I might not stand much of a chance of getting in then. =O | 21:57 |
| Quintasan | I'm just learning on my own pace, I have school, social life (yeah, sometimes it happens :D) so I'd rather not spent ALL my time on cpp :P | 21:58 |
| Quintasan | at my own pace* | 21:59 |
| AzureDragon | =) | 21:59 |
| AzureDragon | Well, if no-one ends up doing a GsoC project involveing KPackageKit, I may try to controbute over the summer anyhow. =) | 22:02 |
| amichair | Is there a GUI expert in the house? Or someone familiar with ubiquity? | 22:40 |
| amichair | or anyone who knows the reason behind the size of the progressbar? http://imagebin.ca/view/GGeqBQ.html | 22:42 |
| Quintasan | amichair: I think for GUI things you can ask seele | 22:42 |
| amichair | seele: ^^ any thoughts on this? | 22:44 |
| DarkwingDuck | woah... | 22:47 |
| rgreening | nixternal: could yo ulook into this bug report? bug 555349 | 22:50 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 555349 in kubuntu-default-settings "Kubuntu plymouth theme does not show the passphrase prompt for LUKS encrypted hard disks" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/555349 | 22:50 |
| larsivi | have anyone seen the plymouth theme with a radeon HD card? | 22:53 |
| larsivi | I've yet to see it at least :P | 22:53 |
| DarkwingDuck | I can't get it to work on either of my computers... Intel card and Nvidea card | 23:00 |
| DarkwingDuck | Well, I'm finally setting up filters for my email | 23:02 |
| seele | amichair: wow.. how did you get the progress bar to do 59% at the first step? did you go backwards after getting so far? | 23:33 |
| seele | amichair: i think the point is to show you how far you are through the configuration process, although the navigation on the left hand side sortof do that for you already | 23:33 |
| seele | instead of percentage maybe it should say step 9 of 15 complete or something | 23:34 |
| amichair | seele: oh not exactly - I just played around with it to get a snapshot | 23:34 |
| amichair | it's not the overall progress, it's the progress of individual little steps along the way | 23:34 |
| seele | the combination of all the steps overall, no? | 23:35 |
| amichair | here's another phase: http://imagebin.ca/view/CQ37320D.html | 23:35 |
| Riddell | no that's the progress of loading the new step | 23:35 |
| amichair | e.g., if u click 'update this installer', the progressbar appears and goes from empty to full | 23:35 |
| Riddell | amichair: what's the problem? | 23:35 |
| seele | oooooh | 23:35 |
| seele | is that the downloading updates thing? | 23:36 |
| amichair | if it updates from the timeserver, it appears and goes again. it disappears in between | 23:36 |
| Riddell | no, it's a progress bar while each page is loading | 23:36 |
| Riddell | it's all shtylman's doing | 23:36 |
| seele | oh, then i have no idea | 23:36 |
| seele | why would you need to know the status of each page loading? | 23:36 |
| seele | shouldnt it be rendering in a few miliseconds? | 23:37 |
| Riddell | just something to look at, else it's unresponsive for several seconds | 23:37 |
| amichair | Riddell: the problem is both the bug in the last link above | 23:37 |
| Riddell | can take 10 seconds to load those pages, debconf isn't fast | 23:37 |
| Riddell | amichair: file a bug, assign to shtylman | 23:37 |
| seele | then the loading progress should be in the middle of the page that is loading not up in the corner | 23:37 |
| amichair | which I can fix by making it take up the full width - it's just that it's so unusual, I assume there's some reason behind it... | 23:38 |
| seele | i hadnt noticed it.. id idnt realise what hta twas for, heh | 23:38 |
| Riddell | no paticular reason, he just replaced the normal progress bar dialogue with that new progress bar one day, caused a few coding headaches along the way | 23:38 |
| amichair | seele: It's not exactly the page loading progress. it's more like sub-tasks in between that aren't instantanious provide the progress so the user will know why it's 'stuck' | 23:39 |
| * daskreech prefers the loading in the corner like as web page | 23:40 | |
| amichair | now that I got the screenshot, I also notice the midget skip button... | 23:40 |
| DarkwingDuck | hmmm, this is interesting... In Kmail when I move a message to another folder it makes a blank unknown message in the inbox... Anyone know why? | 23:41 |
| amichair | daskreech: a progressbar is more informative, if percentage info is calculable... and it also says what it's doing (well not in the first screenshot, but in some of them) | 23:41 |
| daskreech | amichair: That was in response to seele saying the progress should be in the middle of the page | 23:41 |
| amichair | seele: So, I can't make it full width either (because it bumps into the title text) - so just enlarge it more to the left? | 23:43 |
| amichair | daskreech: ah, ok. In this case it doesn't replace the page content anyway, so it will stay on top, I guess. | 23:44 |
| amichair | Riddell: on a related note, there's the other progressbar, of actual installation progress - You and I both opened bugs on the wierd 'skip' button that appears occasionally at the bottom and messes up the layout too | 23:45 |
| amichair | Riddell: what does that 'skip' do anyway? when I tried clicking it, the whole installer disappeared. | 23:45 |
| seele | how long does it take to load a page? why not use the little spinner instead of a progress bar | 23:46 |
| Riddell | yes, could be a papercut that | 23:46 |
| Riddell | seele: 3 to 10 seconds I'd guess | 23:46 |
| seele | i dont see what value is provided by showing a straight bar with a percentage.. especailly for every page | 23:46 |
| seele | geez that is a long freaking time | 23:46 |
| seele | is that on average/slower systems? i dont remember it taking that long for me | 23:47 |
| amichair | seele: again, it's not exactly a page load. It's tasks that need to be performed in between. downloading installer updates, getting time from timeserver, and some other stuff. the text on the progress changes accordingly too. | 23:47 |
| Riddell | well 10 seconds for the partitoner page when you have several disks | 23:48 |
| seele | why are the installer updates being downloaded between each page? | 23:48 |
| Riddell | they aren't | 23:48 |
| amichair | yeah, that too - 'detecting filesystems' or whatever it says... those kinds of tasks | 23:48 |
| amichair | the updates are if u click 'update this installer' in welcome page. it doesn't actually go to a different page, just does it's thing, and when it's finished, the 'update' link disappears. | 23:49 |
| seele | whatever piece of information is missing , that ui block should be replaced with the progress indicator with a label that says what it is doing | 23:49 |
| amichair | I actually opened a bug on that too, I think it should be part of the wizard process - maybe a checkbox for updating, followed by a 'next'. | 23:50 |
| seele | i still think a spinner is better, the percentage bar isn't telling me anything because the procedures are micro steps | 23:50 |
| seele | if there is only one step -- e.g. getting the time from the timeserver -- all the steps inbetween dont matter to me so i dont need to know the progress. only that it is doing something | 23:50 |
| amichair | seele: the first screenshot indeed doesn't say what it's doing - that's a bug. other tasks (like the second image) do | 23:50 |
| amichair | Here's how it looks when updating installer: http://imagebin.ca/view/mT3BikG.html | 23:53 |
| seele | yeah, i dunno. how much can we change now anyway? it's my fault for not paying attention to it earlier | 23:53 |
| ScottK | Since it's post-U/I freeze you'd need to get nixternal to bless any changes and update screenshots. | 23:55 |
| seele | after convincing shtylman that they should be done | 23:56 |
| seele | i fail | 23:56 |
