[00:18] new kpackagekit in ~jr PPA, please test [00:18] ScottK: sorry no time for that kde rev 1176110 tonight, maybe tomorrow night [00:18] http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/?rev=1176110&view=rev | svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/trunk -r 1176110 | Disable Lanczos filter while moving windows in present windows. Thanks to the movement the change of quality is hardly visible. [00:39] Riddell, Are you really working on bug #635888? I have a quick patch to disable kate support, unless you are in the middle of something complicated. [00:39] Launchpad bug 635888 in vorbis-tools (Ubuntu Maverick) "vorbis-tools (main) build-depens on libkate-dev (universe)" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/635888 [00:56] Riddell: did you added the packagekit patches? [00:58] g'night folks === DarkwingDuck is now known as SkyNet === SkyNet is now known as DarkwingDuck [01:53] persia: vorbis tools has been fixed. [02:06] ScottK: I pushed that "Disable Lanczos filter" patch in bzr [02:06] testbuilding now [02:06] lex79: Cool. [02:06] go to bed, see you tomorrow ;) [02:06] See you tomorrow. Thanks. [02:07] We should see if mgraesslin has anything for us on blacklisting tomorrow before uploading. [02:07] you're welcome, ok we will see. === SolidLiq is now known as solid_liq [09:02] yay. my Maverick doesnt start :( [09:06] I get a lovely little x reconfig box, and no input... no mouse,keyboard etc. Recovery mode doesnt boot either... [09:23] persia: I have no involvement in bug 635888, I think doko is confusing kate the text editor with kate the codec [09:23] Launchpad bug 635888 in vorbis-tools (Ubuntu Maverick) "vorbis-tools (main) build-depens on libkate-dev (universe)" [High,Invalid] https://launchpad.net/bugs/635888 [09:26] I think you're correct. I also think that asac closed the wrong bug when he uploaded the same patch that I prepared (not seeing the bug against libkate, even though searching) [09:26] Sorry to bother you about it. [09:26] dantti_work: what patches are needed against packagekit? [09:34] * persia wishes harder it didn't take > 6 hours for koffice to fail to build :( [09:35] persia: drop to shell and continue fixes with -nc builds [09:36] apachelogger, Works sometimes, not others. When I change definitions of private members of classes, it's not always the case that things using that are recompiled properly. -nc works for most changes though. [09:37] Plus -nc still takes ~30 minutes to get back to where I was for the last failure. [09:37] well [09:37] better than 6 hrs :P [09:37] also changing anything in a file should make cmake redo the target IIRC [09:38] What would it take to split the package up? Would that improve life in any contexts other than trying to port it on hardware that doesn't meet minimum requirements for Ubutnu? [09:38] otherwise there is a bug in ko's cmakelists too ^^ [09:38] persia: I do not think it would be of much use other than the porting case [09:38] Then there's a bug in the lists somehow: I've had at least two cases where I couldn't figure out what the FTBFS was complaining about, and retrying it post-clean allowed the build to move past that point [09:39] if it FTBFS usually i is a missing file or so which can be fixed using -nc [09:39] It was after krita built, when dealing with some krita plugins [09:39] oh oh oh [09:39] inline functions maybe? [09:39] maybe? [09:39] inline is about the most stupid thing in the world anyway [09:39] * persia isn't really looking at syntax [09:40] well, if you change an inline implemented function only those objects in the target of the changed file would get the new function the others will most likely not get rebuilt and there you have your build failure :S [09:40] * apachelogger is wondering how the educated user debus rekonq javascript foo [09:41] *debugs [09:41] That's probably it then. [09:42] the educated user switches back to Konqueror [09:44] no [09:44] that is what those evil developers are supposed to do [09:44] but they arent listening to me [09:45] the stubborn stay with it, I suppose [09:45] ekk [09:45] but I'm not quite stubborn enough [09:45] now rekonq lost them scrollbars :O [09:45] ...everywhere... [09:45] holy smokes [09:45] lost them all the time for me [09:45] that makes google 100% more useless ^^ [09:45] until I couldn't stand it one more minute [09:49] aha [09:49] so [09:49] you go to the settings menu [09:49] there you select web dev tools [09:50] there you choose selector or whatever it is called in english [09:50] there you go to the resources tab [09:50] where you will get a couple of subtabs [09:50] amongst which is XHR (XML HTTP REQUEST) [09:50] and there you can track the xhrs [10:15] Riddell, ScottK: so what do I do with the workspace improvement? [10:46] hm [10:46] where is sput? :O === Mamarok is now known as Mamarok_FrOSCamp === Mamarok is now known as Mamarok_FrOSCamp === Squt is now known as Sput [12:25] apachelogger: It seems rather late in the game to be introducing such a change. Also do we know who owns kubuntu-art.org? I think adding an external third part like that would take some careful research (which you may have already done). [12:53] [muon] coles * 1176715 * trunk/extragear/sysadmin/muon/libmuon/ (DetailsTabs/DependsTab.cpp StatusWidget.cpp) Proof-reading: - dependants -> dependents - added plural form usage for one message [13:08] ScottK: kubuntu-art.org is, just like kde-look.org and open-desktop.org, which makes me and Nightrose ediors on kubuntu-art.org [13:09] the change itself does nothing more than add the content listing of the kubuntu wallpaper section to the list of possible wallpapers [13:12] from the system's POV it is not even external since it draws the possible categories via http://download.kde.org/ocs/providers.xml pointing at https://api.opendesktop.org/v1/ using the api defined at http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Specifications/open-collaboration-services#categories to https://api.opendesktop.org//v1/content/categories which as we can see actually gives us access to every category available on any opendesktop site (such [13:12] as kde-look, kde-apps, kde-files, gnome-look, xfce-look...) [13:17] ScottK: also, that feature was requested by sheytan otherwise I wouldn't have thought about that to begin with ;) [13:18] hmm [13:19] someone ought to fix kubuntu.org [13:20] it says OK when you first visit the site [13:20] ryanakca: ^ [13:20] Sput is here [13:20] :) [13:23] bah...sorry for that [13:28] oh [13:28] no [13:29] Sput: server clock seems out of sync [13:29] almost 5 minutes ahead of me [13:29] ah yes, I meant to fix that [13:29] stupid KVM [13:29] cronjob ;) [13:30] apachelogger: we need something like http://ivan.fomentgroup.org/blog/2010/09/18/stripes-arch/ as our default wallpaper :P [13:30] sheytan: ^^ [13:30] * apachelogger had a suse vm on an ESX that constantly ran out of sync because the ESX had a bloody old 2.4 kernel [13:30] cronjob fixed this nicely ^^ [13:30] shadeslayer you mean the page? [13:30] sheytan: i mean the wallpaper [13:30] shadeslayer: why do we? [13:31] :D [13:31] I even have ntpd running on that box [13:31] apachelogger: because we seriously need branding [13:31] something i personally want in 11.04 [13:31] Sput: cron is supreme [13:31] apachelogger: just the wallpaper.... nothing else is required in terms of branding [13:31] shadeslayer: talk to nuno [13:32] i shall [13:32] if anything then we need KDE default with kubuntu branding [13:32] and quite frankly I do not know what that would look like besides having the logo somewhere [13:32] which I find super useless btw [13:32] I do not want a flipping logo on my wallpaper [13:33] I also do not stick wallpapers with logos onto my real wall [13:33] not the point...really [13:33] very much really [13:33] logos distrube the artwork [13:33] the point is that the user identifies with what s/he is using [13:34] sort of feels homely :P [13:34] and that is archived by sticking a logo onto the default wallpaper? :O [13:34] you bun too and osx must have bad design teams really [13:34] and yet the former one is so vocal that it consumes the planet all and entirely ^^ [13:35] apachelogger: no i mean we should really ship out a good wallpaper, ethias is foobar [13:35] what does that have to do with branding then? [13:35] also, tell nuno to make a better one [13:35] the first thing i do after installing kubuntu is to install kdewallapers and change to Emotion [13:35] * apachelogger would like something vibrant personally [13:36] default KDE is very cold IMHO [13:36] though that probably comes naturually with blue and white colors [13:36] apachelogger: i meant that a good wallpaper + some sort of branding on the desktop ( as minimal it might be ) works [13:36] well nuno will surely take care of former :P [13:37] i have already pinged him :> [13:41] wth is happening 0_o [13:59] Hey guys [13:59] you should know this [13:59] mine PC is connected with wifi and i want to share that network to laptop via eth, how can i do this? [14:01] sheytan: you mean theres no wifi on the laptop? === shadeslayer_ is now known as shadeslayer [14:01] shadeslayer it is, but no drivers installed ;) [14:02] sheytan: broadcom cards? :D [14:02] shadeslayer yes, Can you help me with the sharing? :D [14:02] sheytan: actually broadcom released their open source drivers, maybe they have the debs somewhere... lemme see [14:03] shadeslayer it's kubuntu 9.10 [14:03] a bit old [14:03] but i will install 10.04 today === shadeslayer_ is now known as shadeslayer [14:07] sheytan: no idea... ive never done it === shadeslayer_ is now known as shadeslayer [14:22] lex79: pokey [14:22] lex79: after updating the network manager plasma widget, i haven't been able to connect to any wireless networks. the widget no longer shows networks in range, and wicd-curses won't let me connect either. sudo iwlist scan does show the available networks, though. [14:24] thats from #ubuntu+1 [14:52] ScottK: we have a problem in nm plasmoid [14:52] its fixed in svn [14:53] the issue is that it wont show wireless networks [14:59] shadeslayer have you found the debs? :) [14:59] sheytan: no :( [14:59] couldnt find any [14:59] shadeslayer no problem, i'll connect it to my router :D [14:59] but it's downstairs :D [15:00] svn diff here : http://paste.ubuntu.com/495902/ [15:01] ill brb [15:08] the nm-plasmoid works fine for me [15:08] debfx: works for me after a reboot too [15:09] shadeslayer: that diff contains only translations [15:13] debfx: yes.. thats what i noticed .. [15:14] seems it works after a reboot [15:14] didnt work on one particular boot... which is weird === shadeslayer_ is now known as shadeslayer [15:40] Sput: did jeffrai tell you if he was disconnecting the core? [15:40] *jefferai [15:55] hi [15:55] Hello lex79. [15:56] shadeslayer: so nm-plasmoid works? [15:57] lex79: not for a few users on #ubuntu+1 [15:57] mgraesslin: Did you have a chance to look at the swrast blacklist question. [15:57] Working here. [15:57] (NM plasmoid that is) [15:57] Works for me too after a reboot .. [15:58] ok === Mamarok_FrOSCamp is now known as markey-frOSCamp [16:03] ^ lolwhut === markey-frOSCamp is now known as markey_FrOSCamp [16:26] ScottK: I have not yet done anything for KWin today [16:26] but it's the first item on my todo list :-P [16:32] Hrm, can we put colored nicknames on by default in quassel please? it would be nice... [16:32] also, anyone know how to update your machine from the live cd_ [16:32] ? [16:33] jussi01: live CD or USB? [16:33] live cd [16:33] jussi01: you could run sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade, but it wont change the contents of the CD [16:34] maco: btw you live in NYC right? [16:34] shadeslayer: no, I want to update my installation on the HDD <( [16:34] ohhh [16:34] shadeslayer: no [16:34] jussi01: just chroot into it? [16:34] maco: oh... ok...

[16:36] jussi01: need alternate cd for that [16:37] jussi01: assuming your goal is to use the packages that are on the cd, not download new ones [16:37] jussi01: erm.. dude.. you want to upgrade to 10.10 ? [16:37] livecd doesnt have many debs. it just plops down an image. alt cd actually uses debs [16:37] maco: i might have a 8-9 hour transit in NYC on my trip to orlando.. thats why i asked ;) [16:38] ah [16:38] nigelb is apparently flying through my local airport [16:38] maco: do you know his route?

I need to action that [16:40] ahhh ok [16:40] jussi01: chroot then [16:40] shadeslayer: so how is that acheived_ [16:40] ?

[18:46] gah [18:47] shadeslayer: did you ping me here? [18:48] did i? [18:48] dont think so [18:48] * Quintasan finds backlog too short to find out who ping'd him [18:48] I feel like importing some kdestuff and packaging it [18:48] Is this good? [18:50] lex79: Looks like http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/KDE/kdebase/workspace/kwin/scene_opengl.cpp?r1=1176787&r2=1176786&pathrev=1176787&view=patch is the other change we want to -workspace before we upload it again. [18:50] If you can take care of it, then I can accept it. [18:52] shadeslayer: do you know if maxb said anything about future imports? should I associate kdeedu import with neon or kdeedu project? [18:52] ScottK: because it's a change to the way it was before in 4.4. So it's not only fixing a regression and with default settings compositing won't be enabled with software rasterizer [18:52] Quintasan: IIRC all upstream imports go to LP projects [18:53] kk [18:53] so id say new project for kdeedu :) [18:53] hah [18:53] it is already imported [18:53] Thanks mgraesslin. [18:54] ScottK: I will add that patch then [18:58] ScottK: i still have a blocked kubuntu-desktop :S [19:02] mm.. manually removed and installed [19:23] shadeslayer: http://gleez.com/articles/general/what-happens-if-inr-1-rs-usd-100 [19:25] nigelb: lol [20:41] shadeslayer: That's outside of my control, I'll ask the sysadmins to do something about it [20:41] ryanakca: ok [20:43] Us Kubuntu folks have little control over our website :/ [20:44] :( [20:44] we say that we are a community distro .. and we dont have control over our site :P [21:16] ScottK: have I to wait for swrast blacklist issue before upload -workspace? === yofel_ is now known as yofel [21:33] hey [21:33] how do i install AIT divers in kubuntu? :D [21:38] !ati [21:38] For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto [22:03] thanks :) [22:08] lex79: Yes. Please. That patch I showed you should be it though. [22:08] I'm not sure what waiting is required? [22:10] are there any chances for this bug to be fixed in the release version of maverick? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/maverick/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/630632 [22:10] Launchpad bug 630632 in xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu Maverick) "[i945GME] Kwin compositing fail on maverick" [High,New] [22:11] it makes Kubuntu unusable [22:11] although it is so beautiful.. :-) [22:21] JontheEchidna: ping [22:27] Malkavian_: there is an easy workaround: disable functionality checks [22:28] I just did it [22:29] the chance to get this problem fixed upstream increased, now two of my two systems are failing the selftest instead of one of one systems succeeding [22:29] taskbar thumbnail show only a blank window [22:29] driver bug [22:29] you can blacklist your driver for lanczos filter [22:50] ryanakca: ping. What's the status of kobby? [23:19] apachelogger: what workspace improvement? [23:20] Riddell: ping Are the KDE Stable releases update policies hosted somewhere visible? [23:20] dasKreech: there is no such thing [23:21] Ah it's being formulated? [23:23] sort of, I proposed it ages ago and some people moaned and I haven't found time to answer those moans [23:33] Krita has a sequence of assignments of the form "double foo = elt.attribute("foo", "0.0").toDouble();" in a few files. These then get used to set values declared as qreal. As qreal != double, I changed the type of the variables so that I didn't have to cast them in all the function calls. Unfortunately, this means that I can't safely use .toDouble(), because I'm not assigning a double. QString seems to have no member toQreal. Any suggesti [23:33] ons on how to proceed without waiting for upstream to make qreal == double? [23:37] ScottK: workspace uploaded [23:48] persia, http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.7-snapshot/qtglobal.html#qreal-typedef [23:48] Indeed, which is why I ask the question :) [23:48] :-) [23:48] usualy I fix that issue with a cast [23:49] like here: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/plasma-widget-networkmanagement/0.9~svn1137272-0ubuntu2 [23:49] i did not know about that [23:49] lex79, So, qreal foo = (qreal) "0.0".toDouble() ? [23:50] Oh, yeah, I've been casting constants quite a bit, and fixing function definitions. It's just the special lack of QString.toQreal() that I'm not sure about. [23:51] I only tryed to cast a costant [23:51] me too, I'm not sure [23:52] what about this ? double foo = qreal ("0.0").double() [23:52] Problem is that foo gets passed as qreal in N function calls. [23:53] persia, typedef the qreal to double :-D [23:53] But, yeah, I guess I'll go with qstring foo = "0.0"; qreal bar = (qreal) foo.toDouble() [23:54] rbelem, I wanted to do that in July, and was told that upstream would probably do it in a new release, but that it would be very bad to switch without a new version because it would break ABI. [23:54] i see [23:55] i think that they will stay with qreal == float for arms [23:55] Why? [23:56] the docs says that they do that to be faster [23:56] and qt4.7 is tagged [23:58] Right. It would be a *new* release. Probably 4.8 or 4.9. [23:58] Or maybe later. Chicken-and-egg thing, based on FPU improvements in HW becoming available, etc. [23:58] rsrsr :-)
