MacSlow | greetings everyone | 08:02 |
Kaleo | didrocks: rock! | 08:56 |
Kaleo | didrocks: even the patches for QML? | 08:56 |
didrocks | Kaleo: right, I can see some structures in accerciser which means that it works :) | 08:56 |
Kaleo | :) | 08:59 |
Kaleo | thanks | 08:59 |
didrocks | yw! | 09:02 |
didrocks | have fun, play with it (and qt-at-spi) | 09:02 |
Kaleo | didrocks: libqtbamf FTBFS does not make a lot of sense: it should have FTBFS in Natty back in April :/ | 09:04 |
Kaleo | didrocks: thanks for the fix though | 09:04 |
didrocks | Kaleo: well, agateau reviewed it | 09:04 |
didrocks | Kaleo: but with C++ mangling system and after changing the toolchain, I have no more surprizse with gen symbols ;) | 09:04 |
Kaleo | didrocks: yeah, I suppose the change in the toolchain made the checks stricter | 09:05 |
didrocks | yeah, the mangled file seems to be quite different, not sure why… | 09:07 |

Guest0 | Goodday! I have a problem with a lens Im working on that I've been stuck on for a while now.. I populate the result model the icon field is set to a http address as all icons I use are thumbs got from a web based database. | 10:27 |
Guest0 | the problem occurs when two thumbs have the same thumb and therefore the same http address in the icon field. | 10:27 |
davidcalle | Guest0, what's the problem exactly? | 10:29 |
Guest0 | If one address is loaded more then one time, the second and third and so on wont load. | 10:29 |
Guest0 | The dbus address is already registered | 10:29 |
davidcalle | Guest0, I don't seem to have this problem. I use a lot of similar icons http adress in the Books lens. | 10:31 |
Guest0 | hmm. | 10:31 |
Guest0 | I can post the error unity tells me. | 10:32 |
davidcalle | Guest0, let me see | 10:32 |
Guest0 | ** (<unknown>:3812): WARNING **: static void IconLoader::LoadContentsReady(GObject*, GAsyncResult*, IconLoader::IconLoaderTask*): Unable to load contents of http://o.scdn.co/thumb/e2c9c8a108fec09ce028a5762fa5da546fc0cab7: Automatisk montering misslyckades: DBus error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.InvalidArgs: Mountpoint Already registered | 10:32 |
Guest0 | For every thumb that has the same address as one already loaded. | 10:33 |
davidcalle | Is your code hosted somewhere? | 10:33 |
Guest0 | I can put it up on my server. 2 secs. | 10:34 |
davidcalle | ok | 10:34 |
Guest0 | http://xn--sahlstrm-t4a.eu/unity-lens-spotify | 10:35 |
Guest0 | At the end you have the method get_thumb_path. Theres where the http address is got. | 10:36 |
davidcalle | Guest0, I don't see anything wrong with it... | 10:42 |
Guest0 | I've looked at other lenses, your book lens for example, and could not see what I've done different that could be the reason. | 10:44 |
davidcalle | Guest0, I remember having this bug, but I thought it had been fixed in libunity. | 10:45 |
davidcalle | You should ping njpatel about it. | 10:46 |
Guest0 | Okey. Thank you for the help! | 10:47 |
davidcalle | Guest0, no problem, I hope I'll be able to test your lens soon :) | 10:48 |
Guest0 | Ahh, I just remebered. Can I take a few more minutes of your time davidcalle ? I cannot get the lens to launch correctly. Asked here yesterday but everyone was idleing then. | 10:49 |
davidcalle | Guest0, it doesn't start? | 10:50 |
Guest0 | It seems like when unity tryes to sync with my lens, the deamon is not up and running. But if I, in the terminal, restarts unity, it loads. | 10:51 |
davidcalle | Guest0, does it do this all the time? | 10:51 |
Guest0 | Sometimes, not often, it loads. | 10:51 |
Guest0 | on startup | 10:51 |
Guest0 | But for the most time I have to restart unity to have it load. | 10:52 |
davidcalle | It's bug #758839 | 10:52 |
ubot5 | Launchpad bug 758839 in unity "Lens doesn't start on login" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/758839 | 10:52 |
Guest0 | Okey. So this is a problem with unity. | 10:56 |
davidcalle | Guest0, yep. | 10:57 |
Guest0 | Thank you for the help davidcalle :) | 10:59 |
davidcalle | No problem! Ping me here or on Twitter @untriangle if you need a tester. :) | 10:59 |
Guest0 | I will :) | 11:01 |
Guest0 | njpatel: I have a question about a problem Im haing with a lens for unity. Ping me back when you have time. | 11:48 |
njpatel | Guest0, I'm having a few computer issues right now, so I might drop off, but what's up? | 11:50 |
Guest0 | unity gives me a dbus error when my lens returns the same http address to load an icon from more then one time. | 11:53 |
Guest0 | njpatel: this error: ** (<unknown>:3812): WARNING **: static void IconLoader::LoadContentsReady(GObject*, GAsyncResult*, IconLoader::IconLoaderTask*): Unable to load contents of http://o.scdn.co/thumb/ee693e41d6e261fca5f80d4e059afe0498a54f26: Automatisk montering misslyckades: DBus error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.InvalidArgs: Mountpoint Already registered | 11:55 |
Guest0 | njpatel: I get that warning everytime I use a http address to an icon that has already been loaded before. | 11:59 |
njpatel | Guest0, weird :/ | 12:04 |
njpatel | Guest0, I haven't seen that before. We use gio for loading http icons async | 12:04 |
njpatel | Guest0, but it seems like it's trying to do something silly | 12:04 |
njpatel | Guest0, is this natty or O? | 12:04 |
Guest0 | natty | 12:04 |
Guest0 | njpatel: I've looked at other lenses, for example the books lens, to see if Im doing something strange but I can't see anything special. | 12:08 |
Guest0 | njpatel: davidcalle looked over my code as well. He could not find anything strange. | 12:09 |
njpatel | Guest0, and the strings you send are always valid http right? | 12:13 |
njpatel | urls, I mean | 12:14 |
Guest0 | yes | 12:15 |
Guest0 | always according to the pattern: http://o.scdn.co/thumb/an ID | 12:16 |
njpatel | Guest0, I guess I'll need to test it out, is the code available? | 12:17 |
njpatel | Guest0, hold up, is it the colon at the end of the uri that's confusing gvfs? | 12:18 |
njpatel | Guest0, oh, wait, that's from the error message | 12:19 |
njpatel | also, nice album choice :) | 12:19 |
Guest0 | njpatel: I can put an tar.gz with the code on my server or send it to you. ok? | 12:19 |
njpatel | Guest0, feel free to send it over neil.patel at canonical.com . I'll try and check it out t | 12:19 |
njpatel | Guest0, tonight | 12:20 |
Guest0 | njpatel: ok. Thank you :) | 12:20 |
njpatel | np ,hopefully it's nothing huge to fix ;) | 12:20 |

jcastro | ~10 minutes until the Unity contributor meeting! | 18:52 |
Nafai | yay | 18:53 |
Nafai | I'll be here this time. :) | 18:53 |
jcastro | \o/ | 18:53 |
andyrock | hi... | 18:56 |
andyrock | jcastro, i'm lating? | 18:57 |
jcastro | nope | 19:00 |
jcastro | right on time | 19:00 |
jcastro | ok everyone | 19:00 |
jcastro | welcome to the weekly Unity meeting | 19:00 |
jcastro | let's give it another minute for the stragglers | 19:01 |
jcastro | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Unity/WeeklyMeeting | 19:01 |
andyrock | jcastro, see this: https://code.launchpad.net/~andyrock/unity/launcher-devices-improvement/+merge/65537 | 19:01 |
jcastro | I've added a quick agenda there if someone wants to add | 19:02 |
jcastro | also feel free to toss your name in in Attendees | 19:02 |
andyrock | jcastro, i have just made the merge proposal :) | 19:02 |
jcastro | I saw it scroll by | 19:03 |
jcastro | ok, so let's get started, raise your hand if you're here for the meeting | 19:03 |
Nafai | o/ | 19:03 |
andyrock | |o | 19:03 |
sao | o/ | 19:03 |
jcastro | alright | 19:04 |
jcastro | Nafai: you're new to the meeting so why don't you introduce yourself (in like 3 lines or less) | 19:04 |
jcastro | sao: and then when he's done introduce yourself! | 19:04 |
hunger | Could you guys please make it easier to push a window right up to the launcher without having the launcher hide? It is really hard to move a window such that there is no wasted space right now. | 19:05 |
hunger | some edge resistance for the launcher (and other windows, too) would be really nice to have. | 19:05 |
Nafai | Sure. My name is Travis, I live in Utah, USA, just south of Salt Lake City. Long time Debian and Ubuntu user, former Canonical employee. Want to help make Unity be more awesome than it is. | 19:05 |
andyrock | hunger, there is already an option! | 19:05 |
hunger | andyrock: In natty? | 19:06 |
Nafai | I'm a developer in Python and Scala during the day | 19:06 |
andyrock | hunger, sure... "Never" | 19:06 |
andyrock | hunger, install ccsm... | 19:06 |
hunger | andyrock: No, then the launcher stays on top of the window. That sucks, too. | 19:07 |
jcastro | ok, let's deal with that after the meeting | 19:07 |
jcastro | let's get the other stuff out of the way | 19:07 |
hunger | andyrock: I just do want to be able to properly align windows (and the launcher). | 19:07 |
sao | All right: My name is Oliver Sauder and live in Switzerland near Zurich. Have been using Ubuntu since the very first version. Have been hacking around various Linux projects | 19:07 |
hunger | Sorry, need to run... | 19:07 |
jcastro | sao: ah, so first time meeting, long time contributor. Excellent. | 19:08 |
tedg | kenvandine, I think it's just bug fixes, but the tricky part there is that dbusmenu is FTBS until the json-glib update to 0.3.14 | 19:08 |
jcastro | ok so I've published the report for the week: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2011/06/the-unity-report-carving-away-the-stone/ | 19:08 |
jcastro | andrea fixed a backlog bug, so he gets a bonus "woo hoo" for the week | 19:08 |
jcastro | anyone else been working on a specific bug? | 19:09 |
jcastro | (trevino made a bunch of fixes to bamf that are in the queue right now, but he couldn't make the meeting) | 19:09 |
Nafai | not yet, unfortunately | 19:09 |
sao | Currently I'm working on 798040 | 19:09 |
jcastro | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity-place-applications/+bug/798040 | 19:10 |
ubot5 | Ubuntu bug 798040 in unity-place-applications (Ubuntu) "run command histroy not shown first time after reboot" [Undecided,In progress] | 19:11 |
andyrock | jcastro, i'am working on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/799890 | 19:11 |
ubot5 | Ubuntu bug 799890 in unity (Ubuntu) "In Unity the distinction between GVolume, GDrive and GMount is a bit confusing." [Undecided,Confirmed] | 19:11 |
jcastro | ok, looks awesome | 19:11 |
jcastro | now is a good time to mention | 19:11 |
jcastro | that you can do code reviews of each other's branches | 19:11 |
jcastro | before they get submitted | 19:11 |
andyrock | and on this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/727901 | 19:11 |
ubot5 | Ubuntu bug 727901 in unity "When dragging and dropping a file on to the Launcher, the Launcher icons that are valid drop receptacles don't highlight until the cursor is over the launcher." [Medium,Triaged] | 19:11 |
jcastro | as we'd like to have people get experienced reviewing each other's code so they can eventually just do it directly in trunk | 19:12 |
jcastro | Nafai: ok, are you looking for an easy bug? | 19:12 |
Nafai | Yeah | 19:12 |
jcastro | ok sure, one sec | 19:12 |
Nafai | And I definitely have time for code reviews | 19:12 |
jcastro | sao: andyrock: if you each could review each other's branch on whatever you fix next | 19:12 |
jcastro | that would be swell | 19:12 |
jcastro | ok so let's go over a review real quick | 19:13 |
sao | lp:~sao/unity-place-applications/load-history-when-activating | 19:13 |
jcastro | the way we are doing it now is currently the DX team is doing all the "real" code reviews, as in launchpad. | 19:13 |
andyrock | jcastro, i hate python :) | 19:13 |
jcastro | my goal is to get someone not-on-DX those priviledges, eventually | 19:13 |
jcastro | so what we're doing is you pick a branch | 19:14 |
jcastro | https://code.launchpad.net/unity/+activereviews | 19:14 |
jcastro | from here | 19:14 |
jcastro | and then you do the review, but then just leave them as comments on the merge proposal | 19:14 |
Nafai | andyrock: I can help with Python code reviews and fixes, I'd rather do that than C++ :) | 19:14 |
jcastro | so basically, amongst yourselves | 19:14 |
jcastro | just review branches in there | 19:14 |
jcastro | ideally, we'll catch problems before someone on DX gets to it | 19:15 |
jcastro | then they'll do a review | 19:15 |
jcastro | over time as people submit branches and stuff we'll get to doing real reviews in LP | 19:15 |
=== alecu-lunch is now known as alecu | ||
jcastro | but for now we can help each other with mentorship and all that "good stuff" by just leaving comments in each other's merge proposals | 19:15 |
jcastro | andyrock did one last week, but I can't find it, so if you have that link handy andrea it'd be a great example | 19:16 |
jcastro | Nafai: ok here's the list of the bitesize bugs: http://goo.gl/tiheb | 19:16 |
jcastro | (I always keep a link in the topic) | 19:16 |
andyrock | jcastro, just a moment | 19:17 |
jcastro | theoretically those should be the easier ones, let me know if they're too hard or too easy, or just any kind of feedback actually on those | 19:17 |
andyrock | https://code.launchpad.net/~marcobiscaro2112/unity/fixes-724045/+merge/63461 | 19:18 |
jcastro | also important this week, unity's gone gtk3 so there are new source building instructions, njpatel posted on the ayatana-dev mailing list, it's probably a good idea to get up to speed on that | 19:18 |
Nafai | thanks, will take a look a bit later | 19:18 |
jcastro | ok so here's an example of a review that andyrock did on one of Marco's branches | 19:18 |
jcastro | basically, if we can get everyone doing that that should make reviews easier | 19:18 |
jcastro | anyone have any burning merge proposals that are stuck or anything like that that they need help unblocking? | 19:19 |
Nafai | Yeah, I'd like to do a review this week if anyone has anything | 19:20 |
andyrock | jcastro, i made a stupid error last week... | 19:21 |
sao | I'm currently stuck on bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/798040 I fixed 50% of it but now it is unclear how to move forward (see last comment) | 19:21 |
ubot5 | Ubuntu bug 798040 in unity-place-applications (Ubuntu) "run command histroy not shown first time after reboot" [Undecided,In progress] | 19:21 |
andyrock | jcastro, so i ve a merge proposal: https://code.launchpad.net/~andyrock/unity/fix-769335-and-798318/+merge/65098 | 19:22 |
sao | andyrock: I'm currently reviewing this one | 19:23 |
andyrock | jcastro, the device branch is too complicated and it need coding reviews, and i've just done it | 19:23 |
andyrock | sao, great | 19:23 |
jcastro | heh | 19:24 |
jcastro | yeah, no fair, you just submitted this one | 19:24 |
jcastro | any other ones that have been sitting around or something? | 19:24 |
andyrock | sao, marcobiscaro branch... | 19:24 |
andyrock | sorry sao is not for you :) | 19:25 |
jcastro | andyrock: ok so next up for you is a review on that | 19:26 |
jcastro | I'll see who is around | 19:26 |
jcastro | DBO: around today? | 19:26 |
jcastro | lamalex: or you? | 19:26 |
lamalex | hey | 19:26 |
lamalex | whats up | 19:26 |
lamalex | jcastro, ^ | 19:26 |
jcastro | lamalex: andyrock's got hot launcher review action and sao's stuck on a bug if you can lend a hand | 19:27 |
jcastro | lamalex: see https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/798040 | 19:27 |
ubot5 | Ubuntu bug 798040 in unity-place-applications (Ubuntu) "run command histroy not shown first time after reboot" [Undecided,In progress] | 19:27 |
lamalex | sure thing | 19:28 |
lamalex | sao, what do you need exactly? | 19:29 |
lamalex | and andyrock i'll go review your branch | 19:29 |
sao | lamalex: Take a look at the last comment in https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/798040 Tried to outline the issue there. | 19:30 |
ubot5 | Ubuntu bug 798040 in unity-place-applications (Ubuntu) "run command histroy not shown first time after reboot" [Undecided,In progress] | 19:30 |
kenvandine | tedg, think i can get a speedy review of indicator-me gtk3 port? | 19:31 |
kenvandine | https://code.launchpad.net/~ken-vandine/indicator-me/gtk3/+merge/65543 | 19:31 |
kenvandine | i have the packaging all ready and i need to leave in a little over an hour :) | 19:31 |
tedg | kenvandine, Heh, I doubt LP can generate a diff in that time ;-) | 19:31 |
kenvandine | tedg, should be simple :) | 19:31 |
lamalex | andyrock, do you know why pointerX and pointerY aren't working? that sounds like the real issue that should be fixed | 19:33 |
andyrock | pointerX and pointerY are compiz value | 19:33 |
lamalex | yah | 19:33 |
lamalex | so what | 19:33 |
andyrock | i have no idea... | 19:33 |
lamalex | i mean this makes me wonder how many places are suffering from the same issue | 19:33 |
andyrock | we use pointerX | 19:34 |
andyrock | and pointerX | 19:34 |
andyrock | only here... | 19:34 |
lamalex | this might be an ok workaround, but how many issues will be fixed (or new issues crop up!) from pointerX and pointerY not really behaving | 19:34 |
lamalex | ah | 19:34 |
andyrock | and in edge trigger... | 19:34 |
andyrock | i do not remember the name function... | 19:34 |
andyrock | it is located in launcher.cpp | 19:35 |
om26er | where did didrocks go? | 19:35 |
andyrock | but there is not issue here... i think that using the dash doesn't update pointerX/y | 19:35 |
andyrock | smspillaz, what do you think about this? ^^^ | 19:36 |
lamalex | om26er, it's way after his end of day | 19:36 |
lamalex | he's probably with his friends or eating or something | 19:36 |
tedg | kenvandine, looks good | 19:37 |
om26er | lamalex, ah, didnt know that ;) | 19:37 |
kenvandine | tedg, woot, thx! | 19:37 |
=== zyga-food is now known as zyga | ||
lamalex | andyrock, yah, this looks good | 19:39 |
lamalex | i'll approve the merge | 19:39 |
lamalex | seeing as it's only used in this file twice it's not really a big deal to just query x | 19:39 |
andyrock | lamalex, i know... maybe we can add a FIXME | 19:40 |
lamalex | yah, i'm a little bit curious why pointerX doesn't get updated. One of 10 million compiz bugs.. | 19:40 |
andyrock | lamalex, when pointerX/Y work fine, we'll remove this workaround | 19:41 |
lamalex | yeah, that sounds good. can you push a new rev with the comment? | 19:41 |
andyrock | smspillaz, sure... | 19:41 |
andyrock | lamalex, there is another fixme: // FIXME: remove when we change the mouse grab strategy in nux. | 19:44 |
andyrock | i have to add another line without FIXME | 19:44 |
lamalex | huh? | 19:45 |
andyrock | or i have to add another FIXME? | 19:45 |
lamalex | just add a 2nd | 19:45 |
lamalex | i thought the nux grab strategy thing was already changed though | 19:45 |
lamalex | that one fixme might be already fixed | 19:45 |
smspillaz | andyrock: ? | 19:45 |
smspillaz | ah | 19:45 |
lamalex | DBO, ^ whenever you find yourself around care to look? or jaytaoko ^^ | 19:45 |
DBO | looking | 19:46 |
andyrock | lamalex, i think not! | 19:46 |
smspillaz | andyrock: pointerX and pointerY only get updated when compiz gets a motion event or an enter/leave event | 19:46 |
andyrock | lamalex, is a my commet | 19:46 |
smspillaz | if nux has got the grab those values aren't updated | 19:46 |
jaytaoko | lamalex: hi | 19:46 |
andyrock | smspillaz, so... we need not a fixme commet | 19:46 |
andyrock | smspillaz, thx | 19:47 |
smspillaz | andyrock: I would suggest hooking the nux event handler for MotionNotify events and caching those values | 19:47 |
smspillaz | XQueryPointer is expensive | 19:47 |
andyrock | smspillaz, i will look to that | 19:48 |
lamalex | sao, can't you just send the load places signal when super a/f is typed? | 19:49 |
andyrock | smspillaz, not now... i my country is 21:00... i need to go out :) | 19:49 |
sao | lamalex it is implemented this way currently. However the loading needs some time and the dash is shown before the places are loaded successfully | 19:49 |
lamalex | sao, do results eventually show if you wait a second? | 19:50 |
sao | lamalex nope either you close the dash and open it again or you start searching | 19:50 |
andyrock | smspillaz, by the way this problem will go away as soon as nux grab strategy will change... | 19:50 |
lamalex | hm i thought the dash was supposed to populate async | 19:50 |
lamalex | maybe that's only true once places are loaded? | 19:51 |
smspillaz | andyrock: ah, you're just hitting the clubs now ? :) I was just out then, only got back just now (3am) | 19:51 |
sao | lamalex seems to | 19:51 |
lamalex | sao, so if you want to fix this bug you need to have it watch for places connection and then grab results | 19:51 |
lamalex | would be nice if we had some kind of spinner to show that it's working | 19:52 |
andyrock | smspillaz, do the small hours... :) | 19:52 |
lamalex | gord, any insight? ^ | 19:52 |
andyrock | smspillaz, i don't know if "small hours" means something in Englihs... :) | 19:52 |
andyrock | *English | 19:53 |
smspillaz | andyrock: you mean "sane" hours right ? | 19:53 |
sao | lamalex hmm yeah have to take a look how easy that is. Currently the results are populated e.g. when the places gets a activated messages. | 19:54 |
sao | lamalex such message however does never come to the place as it is not connected | 19:54 |
sao | lamalex it would somehow mean that those events have to wait until place is loaded before there are sent | 19:54 |
lamalex | there's got to be some 'connected' signal | 19:54 |
lamalex | and holding the signal until connected isn't hard | 19:55 |
andyrock | smspillaz, if "sane hours" means the early hours of the morning... yes | 19:55 |
andyrock | smspillaz, in Italian -> "hai fatto le ore piccole" :) | 19:55 |
sao | lamalex yes there is | 19:56 |
lamalex | sao, ok. so go for it! | 19:57 |
lamalex | when you show the dash, wait for the connected signal, then fire off an activate signal | 19:57 |
sao | lamalex I give it a shot ;) | 19:58 |
lamalex | sao, let me know if you have any more questions and ill see what i can do | 19:59 |
sao | lamalex ok thx | 19:59 |
jcastro | hey alright, this turned out to be useful! | 19:59 |
smspillaz | andyrock: eh, need to let off some steam before dublin | 20:00 |
andyrock | i have to go... | 20:02 |
andyrock | hi! | 20:02 |
lamalex | jcastro, of course it did, i'm a genius- did you forget? | 20:06 |
lamalex | who consistently forgets to do his laundry.. | 20:08 |
jcastro | heh | 20:08 |
jcastro | thanks everyone | 20:08 |
jcastro | this turned out well | 20:08 |
kenvandine | lamalex, "but your consistent" | 20:08 |
lamalex | haha | 20:08 |
sao | lamalex I would actually love to write a unit test for this to reproduce the issue however not sure how to tackle this. | 20:18 |
lamalex | indeed | 20:19 |
lamalex | so good place to start is in your setup disconnect places and instantiate a new dash? | 20:19 |
lamalex | thumper, you might be able to help here. do we have anything like mock places for doing unit testing? | 20:20 |
sao | lamalex well it seems that I need a mock for GDBusProxy | 20:34 |

aera | hey | 22:21 |
aera | I've got a question about unity. am I right here? | 22:21 |
tedg | aera, Sure | 22:23 |
aera | anyway: I'm using a Full HD monitor in 27" and I'm really annoyed by the sidebar, showing only eight icons. is their any movement toward more flexibility and customisability? | 22:24 |
tedg | aera, You can drag and drop icons into the launcher. You can also reorder them as you wish. | 22:25 |
aera | I'd also really like the dock to be in the bottom of the screen instead of the left side of my monitor... | 22:25 |
aera | oh, is that possible? | 22:25 |
aera | otherwise, good work on the look. I've just installed 11.04 ... it's different, but good. :) | 22:26 |
tedg | aera, There's no way to move the location today. That'll probably be added someday. No one is working on moving it that I know of. | 22:26 |
aera | thanks, tedg. | 22:26 |
aera | well, if I could make a wish - add more customisability, like moving the dock. :) | 22:27 |
tedg | It's hard, as each option adds exponentially as much work to testing as you need to look at the combinations. | 22:28 |
aera | I can understand that. but why would you make the transfer from gnome to unity if that only chops off functions of the desktok then? I can see the usefulness on netbooks and small screens in general, but it leaves normal users with less options.. | 22:32 |
aera | And I don't criticise using unity, but i'd like the options I had on Gnome 2 ^^ | 22:33 |
tedg | There were a lot of cases that GNOME didn't work because of the flexibilty it provided. Like resizing your screen to give a presentation. | 22:35 |
tedg | Consistency allows you to make many things work better overall because you can understand that built in constraints better. | 22:35 |
aera | but it takes away some of my freedom that made me use linux in the first place.. | 22:38 |
aera | I mean, I don't need a system as complex as KDE. I really never liked that. but just a little more for users to be customisable ^^ | 22:42 |
tedg | It doesn't take away from your freedom. You have lots of choices, including as you mentioned KDE. Freedom is a bit of an overstatement. | 22:43 |
tedg | In reality, configuration will probably grow in time more than anything. | 22:44 |
aera | you mean the configuration options in unity? | 22:45 |
aera | that's good news then. | 22:47 |
aera | thanks for the info, I'll get going. :) | 22:51 |
