mhall119highvoltage: jonathan riddell rejected xdg-launcher from the archives12:39
dakerOH!!12:56
dakermhall119, i have a new and nice way to rewrite the launcher ツ12:56
dakerfound*12:56
mhall119?12:57
dakersomething better12:59
dakeri'll show when it's ready12:59
mhall119ok12:59
dakeri didn't starts yet12:59
mhall119just remember to keep it simple and small12:59
dakeryes13:00
dakerdon't worry13:00
dakermhall119,  have you seen the merge proposal for bug 689013 ?13:04
ubottuLaunchpad bug 689013 in xdg-launcher "Only show launchers marked 'show'" [Critical,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/68901313:04
mhall119daker: don't get too comfortable with the name...13:15
mhall119motu's are telling me we've got to remove all references to XDG in the files and packages before it'll be accepted into Universe13:15
dakerhmm13:16
mhall119;w 3613:16
mhall119daker: does your patch actually change anything?13:27
mhall119it looks like you're telling it to add in the excluded ones, then going and skipping them later on13:27
dakermhall119, yes13:27
dakermhall119, test it13:28
dakerit will work13:28
mhall119when testing your last patch, un-ticking the checkbox in alacarte made the items disappear from the launcher13:28
mhall119I don't doubt it will work, I just think it was already working13:28
mhall119I think switching from xdg.Menu to gmenu fixed that for me13:28
mhall119which is why I marked it invalid13:29
dakerhmm wired13:29
dakerare you using ubuntu or xubuntu ?13:30
mhall119Ubuntu13:30
mhall119you?13:30
dakerUbuntu13:30
dakerbrb13:32
highvoltagemhall119: ok, checking my emails right now..13:40
highvoltagemhall119: ah, just saw it, can you address what riddell said in the next revu upload?13:42
mhall119highvoltage: he wants it all renamed14:03
mhall119he doesn't want xdg in here at all14:03
mhall119the depends issue is already fixed though14:04
mhall11908:10 < Riddell> I'd think application-launcher-panel or application-menu-panel is more along  the lines14:05
highvoltagemhall119: well, I think he's slightly more strict than he needs to be about that, but he is right14:09
highvoltageexcept that imho application-launcher-panel or application-menu-panel is too generic14:09
mhall119yeah, I thought so too15:06
dakerq-launcher ?15:09
mhall119it'll either be qimo-launcher, or some new non-generic name15:10
dakeroooook15:10
mhall119I'm considering a recursive acronym15:11
mhall119like ?nx-launcher, for "?NX is Not XDG"15:12
dakerhhh15:15
puppydogHello?19:20
mhall119hi19:20
puppydogMind giving me some help? im at my wits end19:20
mhall119depends on whether or not I can help19:20
mhall119what's going on?19:20
puppydogWell, my problem is this. I have a machine here that i am trying to install ubuntu 10.10 on but when i put the disk in and it comes up the screen is hazy as if not syncing and i can get up to a sertain point in the software download before it just stops allowing me to hit next19:21
puppydogHave any advice?19:25
mhall119hmmm, sounds like a hardware issue, either bad driver, not enough RAM, or something failing19:26
puppydogYou see, it works with the windows thats on it just fine. i ahve 8 gigs of ram setup for this as well19:27
puppydogmaybe should i try the 32 bit version instead of the 64?19:27
mhall119wow, 8 gigs, okay not ram19:28
mhall119this is just regular Ubuntu?19:28
puppydogstrait from the website, ive even thought the CD i burned was bad so i made six coppies so far, everyone does this19:29
mhall119try asking in #ubuntu, that's the main support channel19:29
mhall119this one is mainly for the educational DVD and packages19:30
puppydogI have, no one seemed to pay attentin19:30
puppydogoh, well i feel dumb ><19:30
puppydogThank you so much for the help19:30
mhall119it's usually busy in there, you'll have to be patient and sometime re-ask periodically19:30
puppydogThank you, i will do that. Thank you againf or the help19:30
mhall119no problemm19:31
mhall119though I didn't really help much now did I?19:31
dakermhall119, do you wan to see a new updated xdg launcher :D ?23:10
