ochosimr_pouit: hm, the xfce-panel-systray still doesn't work great07:50
ochosimr_pouit: and the bloody nm-applet is killed by update-manager after every update/upgrade :(07:51
mr_pouitmmh09:11
mr_pouitI think it's caused by an option09:11
ochosiwhat is caused by an option?09:11
mr_pouitif I check "show borders" for the systray, I still have some bugs (e.g. xfpm doesn't show)09:12
mr_pouit(i'm not sure of the exact option label)09:12
ochosimhm09:13
ochosiwe can try to set whatever works better by default09:13
ochosibut i kinda hope it gets fixed before natty09:13
mr_pouitif it's fixed upstream, yeah ;-)09:23
ochosihm, maybe. i vaguely remember nick talking about some additional fixes in the systray in git09:24
ochosi(wrt gnome-power-manager iirc)09:24
mr_pouit"Restart tray allocation if number of rows overflows (bug #7055)."09:25
ubottuLaunchpad bug 7055 in base-config (Ubuntu) "strange loss of sources.list" [Medium,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/705509:25
mr_pouit"Restart tray allocation if number of rows overflows (bug #7055)."09:25
mr_pouitubottu: stupid09:25
ubottuThe only dumb or stupid question is the one not asked. Please do not tell people off for asking something, just because it seems simple or obvious to you -- we discourage this attitude in all our channels.09:25
mr_pouitochosi: that's all09:25
ochosihm09:26
ochosimaybe i should report it then09:26
mr_pouitochosi: there are several commits improving systray debugging09:26
mr_pouitso if you report something, you should build the panel from git first09:27
ochosiawwh...09:27
ochosinot sure if i have time for that now09:27
mr_pouitand run it with PANEL_DEBUG=systray09:27
mr_pouit;P09:27
ochosiyou're not using the panel from git, are you?09:28
mr_pouitno :>09:31
ochosi:D09:31
mr_pouitI can put it in my ppa if you want09:31
ochosiyeah, that would be nice09:31
ochosii guess that would lower the threshold of testing/debugging it immensly :)09:31
mr_pouitI'll try to do that this evening09:32
ochosicool, feel free to ping me about it09:32
mr_pouitabout nm-applet, I don't know, try to file a bug maybe09:32
ochosiyeah, i'll have a look09:32
mr_pouit(against network-manager-applet or update-manager)09:33
ochosithis bug has been around for all of alpha1 now09:33
mr_pouitthen maybe it's already known ;-)09:33
ochosibtw what do you think of changing the default color-scheme of xfce4-terminal09:33
ochosiyeah, that's what i thought :)09:33
ochosithose two are very common components09:33
ochosiespecially since the app-center doesn't do updates/upgrades yet09:33
ochosiooops, "software-center", not "app-center" :)09:34
mr_pouitochosi: how would xfce4-terminal look like?09:34
ochosihm, e.g. white bg09:35
ochosithat would make the scrollbar-bg feel more integrated09:35
ochosijust not sure, we never tried changing the default colors of the term and people might be particular about term-colors09:36
charlie-tcaGood morning15:01
charlie-tcaXubuntu Community Meeting today at 19:00 UTC in #ubuntu-meeting15:02
micahgcharlie-tca: I won't be making the meeting today16:54
charlie-tcaOkay, thanks. Any updates?16:54
micahgcharlie-tca: just we need to get anything for 10.04.2 into -proposed by next thursday, so docs need a push16:55
charlie-tcaOkay, we will push it then. Thanks16:55
micahgcharlie-tca: I can upload when it's ready, just ping me16:56
micahgcharlie-tca: BTW, in general SRUs need to be fixed in dev release first, but I'm wondering what to do in this case since I'm assuming the docs are being updated just for Lucid, right>16:57
charlie-tcaas far as I know, we want the updated docs in lucid, yes.16:58
micahgcharlie-tca: what I mean is that they'll be Lucid specific16:58
charlie-tcaMaverick is being updated, but won't be pushed, I think.16:58
charlie-tcanatty will have updated docs, but they don't come in until rc, normally16:58
micahgcharlie-tca: no point to updating maverick if we won't push since natty has 4.8pre16:58
charlie-tcaseems like it is part of the process. They have to be updated in sequence, as I understand it16:59
micahgcharlie-tca: but we could push since it's just docs16:59
charlie-tcaAnd, we might. It seems like a lot of work to get them done, it would be a shame to think it is a waste of time17:00
charlie-tcabut to get updated docs in 10.04.2, we can't wait for natty 17:00
micahgcharlie-tca: I can version the uploads so they won't break upgrades, that's not an issue, but if they're version specific, we can do them out of order17:00
charlie-tcaI will get with Daniel and find out where we are now.17:01
micahgcharlie-tca: ok, I'll look for the meeting notes later17:02
charlie-tcaXubuntu community meeting in #ubuntu-meeting in 30 minutes. Everyone is invited to attend.18:32
charlie-tcamr_pouit, cody-somerville, ochosi, pleia2 : meeting?19:04
pleia2charlie-tca: swamped at work, still waiting on a reply from cody-somerville 19:05
charlie-tcathank you, pleia2 19:05
charlie-tcacody-somerville: you are holding up the website now!19:05
charlie-tcamr_pouit: forgot to ask, is it possible to have the new theme, panels, icons, and font in alpha2 ?20:58
mr_pouitcharlie-tca: yeah sure, I'll upload that next week, to give some time to ochosi to fix a few issues21:15
charlie-tcathanks!21:16
cody-somervillepleia2, whats your e-mail address?21:17
* charlie-tca thanks cody-somerville 21:17
pleia2cody-somerville: lyz@ubuntu.com21:19
pleia2the email was the one I sent on 12/16 "Xubuntu.org changes"21:20
cody-somervillepleia2, I created you an account on the website.21:25
cody-somervillepleia2, You should get an e-mail with details.21:25
pleia2thank you :)21:26
ochosicharlie-tca: sorry, thought i could be here for the team meeting but in the end didn't make it22:38
charlie-tcano problem22:38
ochosihave to read up on the meeting22:39
ochosidid anything noteworthy happen with regards to artwork?22:39
charlie-tcano, but I talked to thorwil in #ubuntu-artwork. He never got your email22:39
ochosirly?22:40
ochosiweird22:40
ochosimaybe his isp blocked my address22:40
charlie-tcayeah, he is willing to discuss things, though. If we ever get you two together22:40
ochosi:)22:40
ochosisure, we will22:40
ochosihm, shouldn't the logs be here? http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2011/01/13/%23ubuntu-co-meeting.html22:42
pleia2http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2011/01/13/%23ubuntu-meeting.html22:42
pleia2no -co22:42
ochosithanks pleia2 :)22:43
pleia2the footer on xubuntu.org has been updated to 2011!22:43
* pleia2 makes progress :)22:43
charlie-tcaYay!22:43
charlie-tcagaining, a little bit at a time :-)22:43
pleia2am at work so I'll have to dig in more this evening22:43
charlie-tcaThanks for doing that22:44
ochosigreat stuff pleia2 22:44
ochosipleia2: does this mean we can also have up-to-date screenshots for natty? :D22:54
charlie-tcaHm, should we have them before the release?22:54
ochosii don't see why not22:55
ochosiwe could have them after alpha222:55
ochosicause then the new theme and all that should be set by default22:55
charlie-tcatrue, but we do have to remember the release is never final until we get there22:56
pleia2ochosi: yes :)22:56
pleia2what are the current ones? I can make some maverick ones if we think it's worth the time22:56
ochosicharlie-tca: sure, but i think screenshots could motivate people to do actual testing22:56
charlie-tcareally? Then it would be good22:56
ochosipleia2: hm, well yeah, the theme changed so maverick did look different22:57
charlie-tcaAren't the shots on there lucid now?22:57
charlie-tcadark background22:57
pleia2and need to fix the broken link on /help22:57
ochosiyeah, the screenshots are lucid, or at least that's what lucid looked like22:57
ochosipleia2: still some time until natty gets released, maybe it's worth to update the shots22:58
ochosipleia2: also (if you feel motivated): a "history" of xubuntu's look would be nice22:58
pleia2hmm, we could do that22:59
ochosibrb23:00
* charlie-tca doesn't really know much about the website, but xubuntu never had the artwork close to ready so early in the cycle23:02
ochosicharlie-tca: i take that as a compliment ;)23:06
ochosibtw, are any of you using/testing natty currently?23:06
ochosicause i can't reproduce the workspace-switcher bug beardygnome reported on the ml23:07
charlie-tcayes, I have natty installed23:07
charlie-tcathat was in maverick, right/23:07
ochosihm, he tested it in maverick?23:07
charlie-tcawait, was that the one about workspaces looking the same color as the panel?23:08
ochosiyes23:08
charlie-tcaThat's because if there are no launchers, the workspaces are the same color. There are lighter colored dividers between them, here23:09
ochosiif you look at this screenshot, the bg-color of the workspaces is slightly different from the panel: http://imagebin.org/13252623:09
charlie-tcaoops23:09
charlie-tcaI was wrong. If the workspaces in natty are a separate panel, it matches the top panel. If added to it, they are a lot darker than the panel23:10
ochosiit's maybe not extremely obvious, but in beardygnome's screenshot it looked different23:10
charlie-tcaCould it be his monitor?23:10
ochosicharlie-tca: ok, thanks for testing! i'll reply back with the screenshot then23:10
ochosihmm, good question. i guess he maybe didn't install the latest revision23:10
charlie-tcathat image shows it darker, with the divider. What about a line on each end?23:11
ochosiit's annoying that the dictionary-plugin and the verve-plugin bugs are not fixed yet :( (and i'm not sure whether they're fixable from my side)23:12
charlie-tcaI don't understand... If I can see a separate space, that usually works for me23:12
charlie-tcaI thought verve was working now23:12
ochosiyeah, i think beardygnome would be fine with what we can see on the screenshot23:12
ochosihm, well, verve has a weird bug23:12
ochosiit doesn't work when it has the focus 23:12
ochosi*the first time*23:12
ochosiafter having lost the focus for the first time it works23:13
charlie-tcaheh, not much use if it doesn't have focus, is it lol23:13
ochosiso i don't think i can fix it by theming it23:13
ochosiyeah :(23:13
ochosibut if i try to set the text-color to black it will look weird when you mark/highlight the text23:13
ochosicause then it should be nearly white23:13
charlie-tcayeah23:13
ochosibut dict is even a bit more annoying, it doesn't even work the second time23:14
charlie-tcaI know :-(23:14
ochosii'll try to dip my toes into the source again23:14
ochosibut i can't promise anything23:14
ochosimight need some upstream-fix23:14
charlie-tcathat's the one I use, too. Oh well, goes with the weather plugin, I guess23:14
ochosinot sure we'll get that in time for natty23:15
charlie-tcahm, we will just have to watch for the bug reports23:15
ochosiweather-plugin also doesn't work?23:15
charlie-tcano, it and the timer just remove themselves as soon as they are added23:15
charlie-tcathat's upstream23:15
ochosiawwhh. i really loved and used that one23:15
ochosixfce4-terminal still has that lousy vte-regression mr_pouit :/23:17
ochosibrb23:18
