BUGabundoOMG00:14
BUGabundowhat have you done to my precious frirefox 3.6.x??00:15
BUGabundoI badly need it?00:15
BUGabundoyou can't upgrade it to 4.x while half off the addons don't support it!!!00:15
BUGabundo$:/var/cache/apt/archives$ sudo dpkg -i firefox_3.6.13~hg20101116r34737+nobinonly-0ubuntu1~umd1_amd64.deb00:20
BUGabundothere you go00:20
bdrungchrisccoulson, micahg: i finally sent the m-d changes mail to the mozext maintainer list.00:26
bdrungBUGabundo: adblock-plus is supported, but the package currently doesn't work ;)00:27
BUGabundothat's the least of my concerns00:28
BUGabundono greasemonkey, no downthemall, nosquint, etc etc00:28
bdrungwe have enough time to get the extensions working00:28
BUGabundoit never took me sooooo long to shitf browser version00:29
BUGabundobut ff4 is unusable to me in its current form00:29
BUGabundoand reverting to 3.6 is firing errors left and right00:29
BUGabundookay, safemode works00:30
bdrungthey switched ff in umd too?00:30
BUGabundoahh gnome-support package missong00:31
BUGabundowhy is Firefox being launched as default browser, when chromium is set as default one ????00:36
chrisccoulsonbdrung, cool, thanks00:38
chrisccoulsonBUGabundo, because URI handling has changed in glib, and chromium probably isn't *really*  your default, despite what the UI says00:39
BUGabundo:(00:39
BUGabundoFIX IT FIX IT00:39
bdrungchrisccoulson: i hope that i have explained it understandable00:40
chrisccoulsonBUGabundo, well, i've already sent a set of patches upstream for firefox00:40
chrisccoulsonbut it also needs fixing in gnome-control-center00:40
chrisccoulsonand chromium00:40
chrisccoulsonso, it will be fixed eventually ;)00:41
BUGabundo:)00:41
chrisccoulsonit needs fixing in thunderbird and evolution too00:43
micahgbdrung: thanks, I"ll try to follow the discussion00:53
micahgBUGabundo: we'll get to the extensions, but most of the extensions shouldn't be in the archive anyways00:53
BUGabundoI mean in mozilla repo00:54
BUGabundonot in ubuntu00:54
micahgBUGabundo: hmm, I thought the major extensions were already compatible with beta 700:56
BUGabundonope00:56
BUGabundofor some *very* weird they are not00:56
BUGabundoif there were, I would have migrated LONG ago00:57
BUGabundoyou know me, cutting edge00:57
micahgBUGabundo: I can only fix what's in the archive :)00:57
BUGabundoI know micahg00:58
BUGabundobut migrating *this* soon :\00:58
micahgBUGabundo: you can use the compatability tester and report to mozilla what works and what doesn't00:58
BUGabundo?00:58
BUGabundomicahg: I can't even browse with ff 3 or 400:59
micahgBUGabundo: on the addons that are not compatible, there should be a compatibility button00:59
BUGabundoonce you open links it crashes00:59
BUGabundoreported the bug weeks ago00:59
BUGabundono go :(00:59
chrisccoulsonBUGabundo, if we waited for extension authors to catch up before migrating, then natty would not get FF4.0 ;)01:35
chrisccoulsonwe need to do it early really01:35
BUGabundobut that's what bugs me01:37
BUGabundoFF4 has been out for so long01:38
BUGabundoand soooo many relevant addons haven't been updated yet01:38
chrisccoulsonwell, there's a few reasons for that01:41
chrisccoulson1 of them is that beta 7 is the point where the toolkit API settles down01:41
chrisccoulsonand another reason is probably that debugging extensions is a pain, with venkman not working01:42
chrisccoulsoni had that issue when porting ubufox :/01:42
BUGabundonite02:01
DanaGhmm, official 4.0b7 has some funky stuff going on with tabs:04:37
DanaGhttp://picpaste.com/Bad_Line-TclDx1EF.png04:37
DanaGBad line... makes it look like tabs aren't really connected to the stuff underneath.04:37
DanaGAnd the app-tab is just plain floating.04:37
micahgDanaG: is this with upstream?04:38
DanaGYeah.04:38
DanaGHaven't tried Ubuntu's builds in a while, because I got tired of having to hunt down 64-bit extensions and all that.04:38
micahgDanaG: well, our beta build should be ready tomorrow unless you're on natty in which case it's ready now04:38
DanaGI can try with Ubuntu again once it's on PPA.04:38
DanaGrandom off-topic: archlinux has negative 32 percent of Linux users: http://www.dudalibre.com/en/gnulinuxcounter05:12
alikHi everyone!09:35
alikGuys please give me some advices.09:35
alik 09:35
alik1. I'm using Ubuntu 9.10 with Thunderbird 2.0.0.24 (20101027) and OpenOffice.org 3.2.0. When I edit a file with cyrillic name in OpenOffice and then want to send it with "File/Send/Document as Email" menu e.g. directly from OpenOffice Thunderbird mail composition window is opened and the file is attached but it's name is unreadable (not encoded properly) so this message won't send. Is it possible to fix it? I've read a "Thunderbird:Start Hacking" ar09:35
alik 09:35
alik2. Why is it not possible to launch Thunderbird 3 in Ubuntu when user is authenticated against LDAP server?09:35
gnomefreakok that is freaky12:06
=== yofel_ is now known as yofel
ari-tczewhmmm. seems to that firefox4 is not integrated with flash. very high RAM using12:26
* gnomefreak still wondering why tabs where moved, Opera also has them above the address bar12:44
gnomefreaki thought chrome could export bookmarks as HTML but it doesnt give me a choice on how to save them12:49
gnomefreakfta: it seems i can not export Chromium's bookmarks with an extention (HTML would be great) but it saves it without an .extenion at all, is it bug or feature?13:11
gnomefreakchrisccoulson: you were talking about tab bar in FF4 being above address line(for lack of better word) well it seems that Opera11 does the same thing13:12

ftagnomefreak, go to the bookmarks manager, then "organize", then export, you get an html page13:38
gnomefreakfta: ok ill look thanks13:44
gnomefreakfta: it doesnt let me save as html i had to add it to end of name but it doesnt make it an official html and is useless13:49
fta?13:49
ftaworks for me13:50
ftait's a standard NETSCAPE-Bookmark-file13:50
gnomefreakfta: using your steps (as i was doing anyway) it only lets me save bookmarks in an odd format. it doesnt even give me a name for bookmarks. it will only let me save bookmarks as "application/ocett-stream" that is only choice13:53

ftano one ever complained about that14:06
gnomefreakfta: i put .html after name but does that make .html valid14:12
gnomefreak!info firefox14:14
ftagnomefreak, whatever you use as a name, the content is always an html file, there's no other option. use a ".html" suffix is you need one.14:14

dpmfta, you seem to be having some success on getting LP bugs fixed \o/, I hope this brings chromium in launchpad one step closer: bug 66983115:50
ubot2Launchpad bug 669831 in rosetta "obsolete translations exported to the branch (affects: 1) (heat: 6)" [High,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/66983115:50
gnomefreaktrying to import chromiums bookmarks (added .html to the end) i get unresposive script. if i add from another .html file it works fine. this makes me think adding .html to end is _not_ a vaild .html file. there needs to be a way to import them16:48
micahggnomefreak: try running file on the file to see what it is16:55
gnomefreakthere is a command called file?16:56
micahggnomefreak: yes :)16:57
gnomefreakim looking at --help atm16:57
gnomefreakgnomefreak@Development:~$ file chrome-bookmarks.html16:58
gnomefreakchrome-bookmarks.html: exported SGML document text16:58
gnomefreakthere is no way to choose a file type except the default and it is useless. its application/octet-stream17:00
micahggnomefreak: maybe it'll like a .sgml extension?17:00
gnomefreakadding a feature to allow html or json would be great17:00
gnomefreaknot sure but even if it does it is useless since other browsers wont import a .sgml file17:01
gnomefreakit would be great if it would give you a name for file and adding an extension to the name17:02
chrisccoulsonjdstrand, the slow-down issue you have with firefox when typing - does it use the CPU when doing this?17:04
* gnomefreak testing .sgml17:05
chrisccoulsonjdstrand, mozilla bug 579488 might be related17:05
ubot2Mozilla bug 579488 in Graphics "typing in text entry box on twitter is incredibly slow (again)" [Normal,New] http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=57948817:06
gnomefreak.sgml failed as well17:11
jdstrandchrisccoulson: let me see17:15
jdstrandchrisccoulson: oh gosh yes. I held the Enter key down and totally pegged my CPU. pressing 'Enter' once results in a small spike17:17
jdstrandchrisccoulson: that bug seems different. I don't get the spike if I hold down 'a' for example. only 'Enter'17:18
jdstrandchrisccoulson: ok, this is definitely a regression of 3.6 in maverick. I filed bug #677551 which includes a test case17:32

jdstrands/regression of/regression over/17:34
chrisccoulsonjdstrand, it seems to be the rendering of the text which does it. if you press enter at the bottom of all the text, then it's ok17:35
jdstrandah, I'll update the bug17:36
jdstrandchrisccoulson: I just testing on maverick, at the top of the page and held enter, and it worked fine with no CPU load17:36
jdstrandman17:37
jdstrandI just *tested*17:37
chrisccoulsonjdstrand, i can recreate it anyway. i guess i need to try and figure out a way of finding out what it's doing :/17:41
jdstrandalright17:42
chrisccoulsonjdstrand, used sysprof before?17:48
jdstrandchrisccoulson: I have not, though it seems I have heard of it17:50
jdstrandchrisccoulson: is it the stuff?17:51
chrisccoulsonjdstrand, i just asked in #developers on irc.mozilla.org, and somebody recommended it17:51
chrisccoulsonso i'll try and figure it out now ;)17:51
jdstrandchrisccoulson: heh. let me know how if it is cool or not17:51
chrisccoulsonit's even in the archive :)17:52
chrisccoulsonoops17:55
chrisccoulsonwhen i run "sudo modprobe sysprof-module", i should make sure that my shell is running on the correct machine17:56
jdstrandheh17:58
ftadpm, yep, but it's tough to convince them. once bug 669831 lands, we're good to go. i'm already landing the new strings in the daily ppa. i have to tweak the inspector to make it use translations but that's independent.18:07

micahgmdeslaur: great, thanks19:56
mdeslauroh, nice, someone provided a patch :)19:57
micahgmdeslaur: right, that's why I'm asking you about it :)19:58
mdeslaurmicahg: oh, cool :)19:58
mdeslaurmicahg: hehe19:58
* micahg can upload the package now, so was wondering if that's a good solution for the issue19:58
mdeslaurmicahg: can I take a look monday morning? I need to think about it20:00
micahgmdeslaur: sure, I'll leave it for you20:00
micahgmdeslaur: if you like it and want to hand off the upload, I'm happy to do that20:01
mdeslaurmicahg: I'm looking at it now, hold on a sec20:03
mdeslaurmicahg: yeah, that looks fine. Feel free to upload20:05
micahgmdeslaur: ok, thanks20:06
micahgmdeslaur: I'll do it this weekend then20:06
mdeslaurmicahg: cool, thanks!20:07
micahgmdeslaur: np, thank you for reviewing it20:07
mdeslaurmicahg: could you give it a try without the "export" in there first20:12
micahgmdeslaur: isn't that the whole fix?20:13
mdeslaurmicahg: hmm...yeah I guess20:15
mdeslaurmicahg: forget what I just said :P20:15
micahgmdeslaur: if you'd like to think about it over the weekend, that's fine, I don't see a need to rush this as you just pushed out an update20:17
mdeslaurmicahg: just make sure eval export doesn't print all the users ENV to the console or the apt log20:20
micahgmdeslaur: ok20:21
micahgmdeslaur: I'm wondering why eval is needed at all20:23
mdeslaurmicahg: if none of the proxies are set in apt, export gets called with no arguments, so it dumps out the current list, which we don't want20:26
micahgmdeslaur: ah, yes, that's bad20:30
micahgand what would happen on my machine :)20:30
micahgmdeslaur: so, I'll assign this back to you for future thought20:31
mdeslaurmicahg: ok :)20:32
