tommytwoeyesHello everyone..03:46
spikebhi03:46
tommytwoeyesI was looking for Mikkel. I am just now reading the Lenses wiki and want to make one of my own, like, right away.   ;)03:46
spikebgood luck, i seem to be the only one around, and i don't know much of anything03:47
tommytwoeyesHmm, maybe it will take longer than I had hoped then.03:51
tommytwoeyesI don't know anything about DBus. This is really my first foray into developing for Ubuntu. I'm a web developer03:51
JanCwhat language did you intend to use to write your "lens"?03:53
tommytwoeyesPython03:54
tommytwoeyesHow about you two? Python also?03:54
* spikeb is a designer not a developer03:54
JanCit might be useful to look at some lens(es) that are written in Python then, and "steal" the basic code you need  ;)03:54
tommytwoeyesyeah, good idea.03:55
JanC(of course note copyright by the original author then)03:55
tommytwoeyesi am reading my way through the README and wiki docs.03:55
tommytwoeyesThen I will look at the files & applications places and try to figure it out from there.03:55
tommytwoeyesWhat are you making your lenses in?03:56
JanCI think the AskUbuntu Lens & Book Search Lens are both written in Python, so those should be useful examples03:56
JanCI'm not making a lens, but if I would, it would be in Python probably  ;)03:56
tommytwoeyesoh ok, cool. thanks03:57
tommytwoeyesdo you guys know how to launch the Gwibber lens?04:00
tommytwoeyesI just installed 11.04 for the first time three hours ago, so it's still a little unfamiliar to me.04:00
JanCI think it's in the gwibber PPA04:04
tommytwoeyesoh sorry, no I mean, how do you launch it locally on your system, once you have it installed?04:05
JanChm, I'd guess it's available by default, but maybe you need to restart unity/compiz ?04:07
JanCeither do that manually or log out + log in04:07
tommytwoeyesgood point. maybe i do. Maybe I am just missing something. I get how you launch the applications place by clicking its icon or typing <super>-a04:08
tommytwoeyessame with files place04:08
JanCgwibber place does Super+g IIRC04:08
tommytwoeyesbut i don't see any icon anywhere for gwibber or books, and <super>-g and <super>-b don't appear to do anything.04:08
JanCright, but I suppose Unity searches for lenses only when i starts04:09
JanCwhen it starts04:09
tommytwoeyesoh right, ok. i guess i'd better restart pretty soon, then....   ;)04:09
tommytwoeyesoh, funny, i just now got to the place in the README that says what to do:04:10
tommytwoeyes"Then run the daemon with: ./unity-place-python.py"04:10
tommytwoeyes"And from another terminal restart Unity like this:  setsid unity"04:10
tommytwoeyesoh sweet, there they are.04:11
tommytwoeyesthis is pretty awesome04:11
tommytwoeyeswow, i can see some pretty killer uses for this04:12
JanCwhat lens are you going to make?  ☺04:12
tommytwoeyesi want to make one that allows you to search the API documentation and wiki for the PHP framework my co-workers and I use: http://www.yiiframework.com/04:13
tommytwoeyeswell, my eyes are crossing, so that is about all I can read tonight. Hopefully I can get a Lens working within the next few days. Have a good night/day, where you are!04:29
coz_good day all11:37
artfwoi have an "unmount" option for an sd card, when right-clicking it from the desktop, but no such option is available from unity launcher - is this a design decision?12:59
derEremitjust played around with unity on my work desktop and found out one thing missing:14:19

smspillaz|zom26er: poke19:35
smspillaz|zare you able to build packages ?19:35
om26erhmmm, i have natty only on the netbook and pbuilder is not set on the netbook19:35
om26ersmspillaz|z, ^^19:35
smspillaz|zwell, you can just build them locally19:35
smspillaz|zwith bzr buildpackage19:35
smspillaz|zI'm just wondering if its more efficient for me to push my lp:compiz somewhere and you can just build new pacakges from it19:36
smspillaz|zom26er: wdyt ?19:37
om26ersmspillaz|z, hmm, i could try19:37
smspillaz|zit's literally just19:37
om26ersmspillaz|z, would it be fine for tomorrow?19:37
smspillaz|zsudo apt-get build-dep compiz19:37
smspillaz|zsudo apt-get install bzr-buildpackage19:38
smspillaz|zbzr branch lp:~smspillaz/compiz/compiz.invisibledebug19:38
smspillaz|zcd compiz.invisibledebug19:38
smspillaz|zbzr bd19:38
smspillaz|zsudo dpkg -i ../build-area/*.deb19:38
smspillaz|zom26er: well, debugging this is going to take as long as it takes, I only work part time and have 2 assignments due on tuesday19:39
smspillaz|zI'm just a little bit puzzled as to why the only thing in the .xsession-errors from that window is19:39
smspillaz|zwindow 0x100ad27 mapped19:39
smspillaz|zwindow 0x100ad27 mapped19:39
smspillaz|zthat's basically an impossible case, unless something happens in between and we aren't catching it19:39
om26ersmspillaz|z, this happens when i minimized *alot* of windows together it seems19:40
smspillaz|zso repeated showdesktoping seems to do it then ?19:40
om26ersmspillaz|z, yes, but I normally use the minimize button on the maximized window to reproduce the problem19:41
smspillaz|zright19:42
smspillaz|zI can't reproduce it though19:42
smspillaz|zthat's why I'm debugging soley on output :)19:42
smspillaz|zanyways - could you try building that package then and installing it then posting the same deal when you get the bug again ?19:43
om26ersmspillaz|z, i had sources disabled in software-sources so enabling them,, i'll email you after that19:43
smspillaz|zok19:43
* smspillaz|z should go to bed19:43
lackdianthi, when i click in places in Unity, it appears an option with the last documents i've seen, how can I delete it?20:17
