| Laibsch1 | what package is likely responsible if a QT application cannot be maximized on a netbook? | 15:01 |
| === Laibsch1 is now known as Laibsch | ||
| macer1 | compiz|metacity or libqt4 | 15:02 |
| Laibsch | thanks. how do I find out which one of the three? | 15:03 |
| Laibsch | I have several programs that don't maximize and I suspect that the minimum of at least one of the dimensions being greater than what's available is the cause of the failure to maximize | 15:03 |
| macer1 | do you use compiz? | 15:04 |
| Exodus | Laibsch, you can program a Qt app's maximum size | 15:09 |
| Exodus | Laibsch, what applications do you speak of? | 15:09 |
| Laibsch | I'm not sure I use compiz. I think I don't (ps faux|grep -i compiz returns nothing). One of the affected programs is twinkle -> bug 241632 | 15:11 |
| ubot4 | Launchpad bug 241632 in twinkle (Ubuntu) "Twinkle main window too large for display (heat: 4)" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/241632 | 15:11 |
| Laibsch | subdownloader is another (I'd have to check if that one is using QT or GTK) | 15:11 |
| Laibsch | those are the two I now remember off the top of my head | 15:12 |
| Laibsch | https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=256769 seems similar and would confirm my suspicion | 15:16 |
| ubot4 | KDE bug 256769 in general "Cannot maximize kMyMoney4 on netbook with Status bar and/or Tool bar enabled" [Normal,Resolved: fixed] | 15:16 |
| Laibsch | KDE bug 256769 | 15:16 |
| Laibsch | KDE bug 256768 | 15:17 |
| ubot4 | KDE bug 256768 in general "Akregator crashed wher add RSS feed" [Crash,Resolved: duplicate] http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=256768 | 15:17 |
| Laibsch | nifty! ;-) | 15:17 |
| Laibsch | macer1, Exodus: see answer to your questions above | 15:17 |
| macer1 | oh sorry, message does not showed me if you does not use my nick name :P | 15:18 |
| macer1 | I think it is just Qt bug | 15:19 |
| Laibsch | I think it's probably a program bug, using up too much space, greater than 1024*600 | 15:19 |
| Laibsch | and then the window cannot be maximized | 15:19 |
| Laibsch | that's my current suspicion | 15:19 |
| macer1 | I think it is best to just report a bug to program it affects, and developers will look or it affects qt, kwin, metacity or something else. | 15:21 |
| macer1 | Wait, you are using KDE? | 15:21 |
| Laibsch | nope | 15:24 |
| Laibsch | I'm using UNE which is based off gnome | 15:24 |
| macer1 | There is no UNE now...are you using lucid? | 15:24 |
| Laibsch | and these programs are little used so getting as much information as possible (patch would be nice) is going to be crucial, I think | 15:25 |
| Laibsch | yes, lucid | 15:25 |
| Laibsch | and lucid is still very much supported | 15:25 |
| Laibsch | what I've seen of unity sucks, but that's offT ;) | 15:25 |
| macer1 | Maybe it is because of old packages in lts... | 15:27 |
| macer1 | like old qt, old kde, old everything :P | 15:27 |
| === yofel_ is now known as yofel | ||
| Laibsch | feel free to test in oneiric or later is my usual answer ;-) If it's still the same bug, good, if the bug has been fixed in the meantime, good as well | 15:29 |
| iceroot | hi | 15:36 |
| Exodus | Laibsch, I've gotten those errors myself. There are a lot of applications that have their minimum size too big for netbooks. | 15:37 |
| Laibsch | Exodus: I think those are valid bug reports | 15:37 |
| iceroot | if i want to create a debdiff i must write a changelog-entry. all the websites say to use my ubuntu-maintainer-address. i am no maintainer and dont have a ubuntu-address. is it common to use my normal name + mailadress for the debdiff? or do only maintainer posts debdiff to launchpad? | 15:38 |
| Exodus | Laibsch, they are, although upstream should be informed. | 15:38 |
| Laibsch | iceroot: your normal address is fine | 15:38 |
| iceroot | on debian i saw something like * Non_maintainer Upload \n *fixes foobar | 15:39 |
| iceroot | Laibsch: ok | 15:39 |
| Laibsch | iceroot: NMU is different, don't worry about that | 15:39 |
| Laibsch | Exodus: I fully agree. Did you make a report for those apps? | 15:39 |
| iceroot | Laibsch: ok, thank you, thenn i will create a debdiff and post it | 15:40 |
| Laibsch | iceroot: bug #? I'd like to make sure the next steps proceed smoothly | 15:40 |
| iceroot | Laibsch: let me search it | 15:41 |
| Exodus | Laibsch, I don't actually have a netbook, it was in a global jam for a previous year. I believe the netbook owner reported it. Not sure though. | 15:41 |
| iceroot | Laibsch: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kwalletcli/+bug/802274 | 15:41 |
| ubot4 | Launchpad bug 802274 in kwalletcli (Ubuntu) "Security issue in kwalletcli_getpin(1): tty I/O now properly disables echoing input when asking for a passphrase is not fixed (affects: 1) (heat: 128)" [Low,Confirmed] | 15:41 |
| Laibsch | iceroot: let me know when you have attached the debdiff. | 15:42 |
| iceroot | the next problem is i only have 11.10 but the bug is for 11.04, so i guess i have to use a 11.04 environment to build the patch correctly | 15:43 |
| iceroot | so build the deb correcty | 15:43 |
| iceroot | s/so/to ... | 15:43 |
| Laibsch | iceroot: pbuilder-dist and pull-lp-source are commands you want to look into | 15:43 |
| Laibsch | "pbuilder-dist maverick create" | 15:44 |
| Laibsch | "pull-lp-source $blahpackage maverick" | 15:44 |
| iceroot | natty :) | 15:44 |
| Laibsch | whatever | 15:44 |
| Laibsch | I'm sure you get the picture :-p | 15:44 |
| iceroot | of course :) thank you | 15:45 |
| Laibsch | I'm a VERY slow adopter | 15:45 |
| Laibsch | I experience too many bugs already, I don't always need the latest &greatest new bugs :-p | 15:45 |
| iceroot | because of the bugs i am using 11.10 because its fun for me to open bugs and when possible to write patches which is more often in unstable then in stable :) | 15:46 |
| Laibsch | does 1024*600 resolution have a name? | 15:56 |

| trinikrono | you see i was able to get it running in unity :D | 16:00 |
| Exodus | No clue, maybe cause I did it like an hour ago? | 16:00 |
| trinikrono | with the gconf thing | 16:01 |
| trinikrono | i now came back in lucid i was in oneiric to do the testing | 16:01 |

| Laibsch | any objections to setting bug 535398 to opinion? I'm afraid, that one is wontfix | 16:13 |
| ubot4 | Launchpad bug 535398 in maximus (Ubuntu) "openoffice find and replace window maximized (affects: 4) (dups: 1) (heat: 24)" [Undecided,Opinion] https://launchpad.net/bugs/535398 | 16:13 |
| charlie-tca | Why not invalid? openoffice is not going to fix things, and UNE is a dead project, isn't it? | 16:14 |
| macer1 | so invalid or wontfix :P? | 16:14 |
| Laibsch | well, I set it to opinion because I think the window should not be maximized | 16:15 |
| charlie-tca | I don't find much reason to clutter with opinions when it is not going to ever change, anyway. | 16:15 |
| Laibsch | it's not really invalid, but it works as designed | 16:15 |
| Laibsch | anyhow, it's closed | 16:15 |
| Laibsch | UNE is no longer worked on, that's right, but as long as lucid is alive, the packages are also supported | 16:16 |
| * Laibsch takes LTS seriously | 16:16 | |
| Laibsch | the search and replace window is essentially pretty useless when maximized | 16:18 |
| Exodus | macer1, there is actually a #1 bug. It was filed by Mark Shuttleworth | 16:19 |
| Exodus | macer1, it's quite funny. | 16:19 |

| penguin42 | what's the story on Openoffice.org bugs in Lucid? As far as I can tell all the oo.o bugs have just been closed as 'reopen them in libreoffice' - but what about Lucid? | 17:38 |
| charlie-tca | You would have to ask the person doing it. | 17:40 |
| charlie-tca | I lost that battle | 17:40 |
| * penguin42 might ask on bug-control | 17:41 | |
| [Relic] | me thinks I found the mouse problem it also registers as a kbd device | 17:55 |
| [Relic] | it fails on both ubuntu and kubuntu so which place do I put the bug | 17:57 |
| penguin42 | [Relic]: run ubuntu-bug xorg I think | 17:58 |
| [Relic] | that doesn't work | 18:08 |
| [Relic] | just complains about nvidia drivers and how I should uninstall them, absolutely nothing about input devices in that program at all | 18:10 |
| penguin42 | [Relic]: Try ubuntu-bug xserver-xorg-input-evdev | 18:11 |
| * penguin42 goes to get food | 18:11 | |
| [Relic] | nope, uninstall nvidia drivers to see if they are the problem | 18:13 |
| penguin42 | Oh that's #8!$ annoying | 18:39 |
| micahg | penguin42: that was Sweetshark | 18:40 |
| penguin42 | sweetshark? | 18:41 |
| micahg | penguin42: AIUI, it was low/wishlist bugs that would *supposedly* never be fixed in the stable release | 18:41 |
| penguin42 | ah | 18:41 |
| micahg | penguin42: he works on libreoffice in Ubuntu | 18:42 |
| penguin42 | micahg: Ah ok | 18:42 |
| penguin42 | to be fair the one I was thinking of was marked low (although it is a real real pain in environments when interacting with users of ppt) | 18:43 |
| micahg | penguin42: if you have a debdiff approved by someone, you can still get fixes in | 18:43 |

| dtchen | [Relic]: would you rephrase the question, please? I'm missing context. | 20:28 |

| Exodus | [Relic], can you explain these results? | 20:32 |
| [Relic] | uninstall nvidia drivers to see if they are the problem | 20:34 |
| [Relic] | which has completely no releavnce to the mouse I would like to get working properly | 20:35 |
| Exodus | both nvidia configuration and mouse configuration are in the same place | 20:37 |
| Exodus | The X.org configuration | 20:37 |
