ScottKDaskreech: Verified working here.05:36
DaskreechScottK: Thanks05:37
apacheloggerScottK, Daskreech: that feature will not work if krunner is not running05:45
Daskreechapachelogger: orly?05:45
apacheloggerlocking is managed by krunner whereas shutdown is handled by the kde session manager05:46
apacheloggerwhy krunner would not be running I do not know though05:46
apacheloggerScottK: do we have unbroken kde on arm yet? ;)05:46
Daskreechapachelogger: Any reasoning behind that?05:48
apacheloggerDaskreech: why krunner is not running?05:50
DaskreechWhy Krunner is the owner of that task instead of the session manager05:51
apacheloggerbecause it got nothing to do with session management really ;)05:51
apacheloggersession management = in or out, not lock05:51
Daskreechok05:52
Daskreechwhy is krunner = lock?05:52
DaskreechDoes it also do user switching?05:52
apacheloggeryes05:53
apacheloggertype lock in krunner :P05:53
apacheloggeror new session05:53
apacheloggeralthough actually I am not entirely sure about new session05:53
apacheloggerkrunner is at least invovled because it also locks on new sessin05:53
apachelogger+o05:53
Daskreechapachelogger: I also type in Shutdown when I want to shutdown in krunner05:53
apacheloggerthat calls out to ksmserver though05:54
DaskreechI wouldn't expect that because I start somethien with Krunner it's inextricably linked05:54
DaskreechMost people start Ksysguard from krunner but it's more linked to kwin than it is krunner05:54
Daskreechanything else that krunner controls ?05:54
apacheloggerit doesnt control it, it just handles the request05:55
DaskreechI'm more likely to have krunner on than plasma so I'm not really bothered much by it05:55
apacheloggerbut let me look at the codez to make sure I am not telling bogus stories here05:56
apacheloggerDaskreech: locking is definitely handled by krunner, which provides the dbus interface for screenlocking it woudl appear06:02
apacheloggerthe actual locking is done by kscreenlocker06:02
Daskreechok06:02
apachelogger(which actually is part of krunner source though)06:02
Daskreechha ha ok06:02
Daskreechthanks06:02
apacheloggershutdown operations are handled by the ksmserver06:03
Daskreechthat I expect06:03
apacheloggernew session is also handled by krunner but actually carried out by kdm06:03
apacheloggerso krunner just interfaces with shutdown/new session but provides locking06:04
apacheloggersupposedly because locking is a rather simple task and not worth getting its own independent service06:04
apacheloggerwhereas session management also includes stuff like session restoration and app killing on exit06:05
apacheloggerand well, the new session stuff needs to be handled by kdm anyway as it requires starting a new X, which only the desktop manager can do06:05
* apachelogger notes that locking is actually done via the same interface as starting the screensaver06:06
apacheloggerand that interface is a freedesktop one it would appear :D06:06
apacheloggerorg.freedesktop.ScreenSaver06:06
* apachelogger did not know that06:07
macotwo computers i regularly interact with are broken for locking06:07
macomy laptop doesnt unlock06:07
macoand my desktop at work doesnt lock!06:07
macowell, i can force it too, if i call the binary directly with --force06:07
macobut the button doesnt work06:07
apacheloggermaco: is krunner runner?06:08
apacheloggerwhat button actually?06:08
apacheloggerunlocking is probably a PAM issue btw06:08
macoapachelogger: the logout/shutdown plasmoid i put in the panel06:08
macoor the logout button when i type it into the plasma netbook launcher06:08
apacheloggeryeah, that wont work if krunner is not running06:08
macoooooh06:08
apacheloggersee above :P06:09
macokrunner doesnt run by default in 10.1006:09
macoat least not on plasma netbook06:09
apacheloggersounds like a bug06:09
* apachelogger only has a 11.04 netbook these days06:09
apacheloggermaco: surely SRUworthy06:09
apacheloggergiven that we have the shutdown/lock applet in the netbook by default06:10
macoi dont think an sru could fix it06:10
apacheloggerwell06:10
apacheloggerdepends on why it is not started ;)06:10
macobecause its not in autostart06:10
apacheloggerso why could we not SRU that?06:10
macoall you have to do is go toggle the checkbox06:10
macobecause autostart settings are per-user06:10
macoso i guess an sru could fix it if you create a new user after installing updates06:10
apacheloggereh?06:11
apacheloggerwhy is it turned off for the user?06:11
apacheloggerthat does not even make sense :O06:11
apacheloggermaco: any clues where that is coming from?06:13
* apachelogger suspects ubiquity06:13
macoapachelogger: system settings -> startup & shutdown -> autostart06:13
apacheloggerwell yes06:13
apacheloggerbut by default (meaning upstream) krunner is not in there06:13
apacheloggerthe only way it would show up in there is if the krunner.desktop file for autostart is in .local/share/autostart06:14
apacheloggerwhich should not be the case unless the user actually put it there06:14
macooh hmmm06:14
apachelogger(usually kde autostart services are /usr/share/kde4/autostart)06:14
macoyeah im looking on my plasma-desktop laptop, and its not listed in htere yet krunner is running06:14
apacheloggerexpected default behaviour06:15
apacheloggermaco: was that a straight install of 10.10 or upgrade?06:15
macostraight install06:15
apacheloggerhm06:15
apacheloggerabsolutely weird06:15
macothere's no /usr/share/kde4/autostart on this natty machine06:15

debfxRiddell: the current qtwebkit snapshot is from the qtwebkit-2.1.x branch, right?13:05
Riddelldebfx: yes13:06
debfxaha, symbian is the only officially supported platform for 2.1, that's why they haven't backported the linux crash fix13:12
ScottKshadeslayer: But he wasn't listing all the time.  Must be that fresh mountain air in Austria.13:14

debfxshadeslayer: which qtwebkit versions does rekonq support?13:50
shadeslayerdebfx: more like, what kdewebkit versions :)14:03
shadeslayerdebfx: we depend on KDE 4.5 right now ... so whatever kdewebkit version was shipped with that14:04
debfxshadeslayer: well kdewebkit is just a wrapper around qtwebkit, right?14:05
shadeslayerdebfx: sort of ... more like overloaded qtwebkit function14:05
shadeslayeri've never gotten the term wrapper classes around my head14:05
debfxso it doesn't have any qtwebkit version requirements?14:12
shadeslayerwell14:15
shadeslayerdebfx: it also depends on Qt 4.614:15
shadeslayerso you could call that a requirement14:15
shadeslayerbut no qtwebkit requirements as such14:15
bambeehttp://techbase.kde.org/Projects/WebKit/Library => apparently a kde binding for a better integration of webkit in kde14:16
ScottKapachelogger: FYI, currently raising a ruckus in the ubuntu-arm meeting re gcc 4.5 and Qt.15:18
debfxRiddell: "2.1 is targeted at symbian and is not being activelly tested on other platforms."15:18

agateauRiddell: I am about to release a new dbusmenu-qt,15:39
agateauRiddell: it does not link to libQtXml anymore, do you think I need to bump the sonumber?15:40
agateauRiddell: nevermind, got answer from #kde-devel15:49
ScottKagateau: What was the answer?15:52
agateauScottK: no need to bump the sonumber as long as it does not expose QtXml directly15:54
ScottKMakes sense.15:55
agateauScottK: if an app used libQtXml but did not explicitly link to it, it may break though, but that is considered as a bug in the app15:55
ScottKagateau: Yes.  That's definitely true.15:55
apacheloggerScottK: did you get an action item out of it?16:09
ScottKapachelogger: It's in doko's hands now to fix gcc 4.5 (patch is available).16:10
ScottKAction item to doko in an arm meeting won't help.16:10
apacheloggerok16:10
