DaskreechScottK: Did you know that Mint KDE edition was sponsored?05:24
ScottKNo.05:24
DaskreechYeah me either. 05:24
ScottKBut unless someone is willing to sponsor a full time body, I'm not sure how much it helps.05:24
ScottKThat's the main thing we've lost.05:25
Daskreechapachelogger's blog did bring up that people could get support contracts from community members directly 05:25
Daskreechbut it would probably be better for there to be a company that can take those kind of contracts and then pay either full time or for projects 05:26

BluesKajHIyas all13:10
MamarokDaskreech: I wonder why he wants to change that for new users, sounds like a strange request from a user13:48
shadeslayer_\o14:08
DaskreechMamarok: not convinced he's a user. More like a network admin rolling out Kubuntu14:18
Daskreechagain I think it's amusing that I've seen more people coming in with queries about getting paid Kubuntu support than I have in maybe 3 years and suddenly Canonical no longer wants anyone to give them money for Kubuntu14:19
Daskreechwould be a good spot for someone to take up14:19
Daskreechapachelogger: I know. but an alternative could be a company willing to take lots of smaller contracts and pay someone fulltime to make Kubuntu rock and do customization14:21
Daskreechapachelogger: one aspect could be having a "real" working KIOSK 14:22
MamarokDaskreech: sounds like a good idea for a Kubuntu company made of the devs?14:22
DaskreechHi BluesKaj14:22
Mamarokwhere did apachelogger say something?14:22
DaskreechMamarok: his blog14:22
Mamarokah, you addressed him as if he were talking here :)14:23
DaskreechWhich I think should be in /topic 14:23
DaskreechMamarok: Oh he did I commented on his blog and he responded that There is no reason why if there was a large enough deployment of Kubuntu that it would employ someone fulltime to work on Kubuntu14:23
BluesKajhey Daskreech14:24
Mamarokyou mean like the educational board of Brazil?14:24
agateauanyone heard from netrunner? would be interesting to know their position now14:24
Daskreechso that was my thoughts on the matter14:24
Mamarokthey have a deployment of 500.000 PCs with a distro based on Kubuntu14:24
DaskreechMamarok: netrunner was brought up when I was musing on another channel. I had never heard of it before but they are very well setup for that space14:25
DaskreechMamarok: They pay to sponsor Mint KDE as I understand it. 14:25
DaskreechIt would be an easy PR at least for them to say we will accept any support requests for Kubuntu :)14:26
Daskreechas they seem more tuned to KDE it's also likely they would be more inclined to highlight contracts they got based on Mint KDE and Kubuntu just to encourage people to break out of the "But NOBODY corporate uses KDE!" murmurs 14:27

Daskreechalso tbruff13 is switching a school district from Ubuntu to Kubuntu when 12.04 comes out 14:42
RiddellDaskreech: where is he commenting?14:42
Daskreechapachelogger: I didn't want to put it up as a topic without notification14:42

Mamarokkklimonda: why using such an old version then?14:53
Riddellthanks shadeslayer_ 14:54
Riddellshadeslayer_: yes I think we want rekonq 0.9 in but haven't checked the expected release schedule yet14:54
Riddellshadeslayer_: ping !ninjas for volunteers :)14:54

shadeslayer_rekonq needs packaging :)14:55
kklimondaDaskreech: it's a project based on Kubuntu - we've choosen 10.04 a year ago as a stable base and are sticking with it for a time being. Then we just hacked it around as there was no time to do it properly, but now I have more time so I want to do this right.14:55
Daskreechhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GFLGRidfFo414:55
Daskreechkklimonda: fair enough. 14:56
Riddellkklimonda: an exciting project that's too secret to tell us?14:56

Riddellshadeslayer_: thems dangerous words to say in software land! it's so common to get blocked or find something takes longer than expected14:57
apacheloggerDaskreech: why you talk on two channels at the same time :P14:57
apacheloggerstop confusing me14:57
kklimondaRiddell: not really, just too small and too mundane to discuss - basically the local equivalent of FSF is preparing a Kubuntu based distribution for schools as a part of a bigger project14:57
* apachelogger needs moar coffee14:57
Riddellkklimonda: nice14:58
Daskreechapachelogger: one I see as the method to get a particular problem solved and one as a larger reasoning and possible area of collaboration. 14:58
kklimondaRiddell: distribution is just a small part of it, and our changes are really small (mostly adding some additional apps like Lazarus and Arduino) so I haven't really thought of showing it off :)14:58
apacheloggersomeone should brief apachelogger on what we are talking about14:58
DaskreechEach is going on the respective channel for that kind of discussion14:58
kklimondaalso it was a terrible mess from the development side so far - using remastersys and shipping everything in /etc/skel.. ugh..14:58
shadeslayer_oh my oh my14:59
apacheloggerOo14:59
shadeslayer_Riddell: I'll keep that in mind next time ;)14:59
Riddellkklimonda: here is a good place to try asking if you get stuck on how to do things14:59
kklimondaapachelogger: ok, I want to change the wallpaper for new users in 10.04 - I can't use plasma scripts and looking for a better alternative than shipping change in /etc/skel - I can't figure out where is the default kubuntu wallpaper setting stored14:59
kklimonda(I can't use plasma init script as the wallpaper API has been introduced in 4.5)14:59
apacheloggerkklimonda: why can't you use plasma scripts?14:59
apacheloggerthat should not be a problem15:00
apacheloggeryou should be able to write the appropriate config entries manually15:00
apacheloggervia read/writeConfig() 15:00
apacheloggerand configGroup() or whatever it is called15:00
kklimondaapachelogger: great - how would that work? I can't use activity.writeConfig() as it's been introduced in 4.5 too15:01
apacheloggeroh15:01
apacheloggerhaha15:01
apacheloggerlol15:01
apacheloggerwhat version of kde does 10.04 have?15:02
shadeslayer_heh good question15:02
MamarokI am not sure basing on 10.04 is still appropriate15:02
kklimonda4.4.515:02
kklimonda(that's the version of kdeplasma-addons)15:03
Mamarok4.4-x was so buggy... compared to what we have now :)15:03
kklimondayeah, I've had to patch rssnow so it would change its configuration on the fly.. I know it's an ancient version15:04
kklimondawe'll discuss changing to 12.04 after this release15:04
Daskreechkklimonda: any reason it wasn't discussed befre? Just time constraints?15:05
BluesKajshadeslayer_,  speaking of rekonq , it needs a bookmarks toolbar that can be placed horizontally in the Titlebar , sidebars are oldschool IMO 15:05
shadeslayer_BluesKaj: #rekonq or bugs.kde.org :P15:05
kklimondawe've actually started the project based on GNOME which was fine in 10.04, and the switch to KDE came later, too late for us to change to the newer release and test everything15:06
Riddellkklimonda: use config settings15:06
Daskreechkklimonda: ah well since it's now that you have time maybe some elbow grease on a 12.04 mockup would be a nice investment. 15:07
DaskreechWould be sad if the discussion started and when it was resolved that 12.04 is appropriate (which I honestly can't think why it wouldn't be) no one has time to do the work and you have to wait way into the cycle again15:07
Riddellkklimonda: kde4-config --path config  is where it looks15:07
Riddellset up plasma as you want, copy relevant settings out of ~/.kde/share/config/plasma*rc into a file in /etc/kde415:08
kklimondaDaskreech: we really have like a week to prepare the iso - I've just left kde tweaking for last :)15:13
Daskreechcause it's the easiest? :)15:13
kklimondayeah15:14
kklimonda;)15:14
BluesKajshadeslayer_, FYI the bookmarks toolbar is finally fixed in rekonq 15:15
apacheloggerRiddell: I really wonder where plasma gets the default wallpape rfrom though15:15
shadeslayer_wheee15:15
Daskreechapachelogger: Kfairies 15:17
shadeslayer_KPonies15:17

apacheloggerthat input is certainly not valid15:21

shadeslayerofcourse, but the linker should be smarter :P15:21

bkerensaapachelogger: So how will the Kubuntu team be moving forward after the recent news? Will this be a major change?15:22
Daskreechbkerensa: Topic 15:22
bkerensaDaskreech: I'm asking on behalf of Ubuntu Dev News :P15:22
Daskreechwhonwhat now?15:23
bkerensaHmm? 15:24
apacheloggerbkerensa: business as usual, though we *might* take this development as an opportunity to discuss more in-depth how we want to handle various things in the future15:24
apacheloggerbut that is really random guessing here15:25
DaskreechI never heard of Ubuntu Dev news. Is that from the Fridge?15:25
apacheloggeras there is for quite some time the talk of making some of our processes more efficient15:25
dholbachwe post a weekly update about ubuntu development to fridge and omg and it gets reposted in other places15:26
dholbachwe often place an interview in there or a spotlight on something which is interesting15:26
DaskreechAh right ok :)15:26
apacheloggere.g. release packaging needs more automation as KDE is splitting their software into more tars and holds monthly release days with a great deal of software being released15:26
bkerensaDaskreech: We publish on Fridge and OMG yeah15:26
apacheloggerthat is about as much as can be said ... so really, business as usual for now (also see blog post from topic ;))15:26
Daskreechok cools :)15:27
schnelle_apachelogger: on your blog on question :"So no more LTS releases of Kubuntu?" you answered "Yes"15:27
schnelle_is this correct?15:27
apacheloggerno, pitti already commented15:27
dholbachshall we maybe move with a few folks into #kubuntu-interview and discuss things there to not disrupt the discussions in here? it'd be nice if a few people joined us, so we could try to explain as best we can to the casual reader what's going on and how they might help out in the future15:27
dholbachwhat do you think?15:27
schnelle_xubuntu will be lts for examle 15:27
apacheloggerapparenlty LTS morphed into general Ubuntu label :P15:27
schnelle_and it is community driven15:28
schnelle_ok15:28
apacheloggerso any flavour can apply for LTS and the TB decides whether that is granted15:28
apacheloggerof course that makes me wonder who is going to implement the LTS then15:28
apacheloggerdholbach: I think that I am at work and could not possible give an interview :P15:28
dholbachapachelogger, not a video interview :)15:29
dholbachbut more like bkerensa and I ask a few questions and a few Kubuntu developers answer the questions15:29
dholbachin the end we'd all stitch it together nicely and post it tomorrow15:30
apacheloggerdholbach: we should schedule that :P15:30
dholbachI think it'd be a good opportunity to say what kind of great stuff you are working on15:30
bkerensalol15:30
bkerensa:D15:30
dholbachand how new contributors can help out15:30
dholbachschedule how? I don't think it'd take lots of time :)15:30
apacheloggerI am not getting payed to give interviews :P15:31
* dholbach shrugs15:31
shadeslayerapachelogger: it was a cache issue15:35
apacheloggershadeslayer: give an interview to bkerensa and dholbach in #kubuntu-interview :P15:36
dholbachScottK, Riddell, shadeslayer, Quintasan: bkerensa and I wanted to do a quick interview about Kubuntu and what's currently happening for the weekly development update - would you be able to join #kubuntu-interview?15:36
shadeslayerwhut15:36
shadeslayerI can help15:36
Riddellkklimonda: you can see `dpkg -L kubuntu-default-settings` for how and what we tweak15:36
dholbachI mentioned it earlier already: it might be a good opportunity to get some more folks involved and interested in what's cooking :)15:36
* apachelogger still has pending invasive changes for that15:37
dholbachanyone else we should drag in? :)15:37
kklimondaRiddell: ah, thanks - copying plasma rc files into /etc/kde4/ worked indeed15:41
Riddellkklimonda: if you're doing it properly you should be careful not to include keys for settings you don't want in there, problems can be caused later15:42
kklimonda(I think it made the entire plasma scripting exercise pointless, but the result is what's important and I can try it again when we move to 12.04)15:42
Daskreechkklimonda: more knowledge helps15:44
apacheloggerkklimonda: there are many advantages of scripting over the config file15:46
apacheloggerlatter is fine for simple things though :)15:46
kklimondaapachelogger: yes I know - that's why I've tried to figure out how to use it15:46
apacheloggerQuintasan: go join #kubuntu-interview15:46
kklimondaRiddell: keys like for example desktop geometry?16:02
kklimonda(stuff that will vary from one machine to another)16:03
Riddellkklimonda: right16:03
kklimondaRiddell: if I remove those keys KDE will just use defaults (or recalculate them), right?16:04
kklimondamakes sense - thanks16:04
Riddellkklimonda: right16:06

DaskreechAnd I was looking at http://sahanafoundation.org/ from GCI16:32
Riddellpresumably something that can withstand earthquakes and hurricanes!16:32
DaskreechI indepenedently went and spoke with them about it and they jumped up and down for joy16:32
Riddellopenstreetmap is something they should know about but maybe that's for a different day16:33
DaskreechRiddell: likely server but I'm looking for where else I can push desktop. THey have a school outreach program so I can probably link with another program that's doing FOSS for School and use this to strenghen that16:33
Riddellthey'll need servers locally and remote to get maximum resiliance16:34
DaskreechRight which is what I'm looking at as well16:34
Riddellthis talk should interest them http://www.slideshare.net/sabman/haiti-quake-public-key16:35
DaskreechBut I have a windows machine to exorcise in 20 minutes then a meeting with them so hopefully that goes well16:36

Kurdistanyofel, thx. np.16:51
Kurdistanhttp://i.imgur.com/2u5qd.jpg yofel do you think this bug can be driver (graphical) or kdm?16:55
Kurdistanif I should write to upstream channel or not.16:55
apacheloggerwhat would kdm have to do with it?16:55
yofeloh fooey - reply on bug 92800916:56

yofelshould I add kde-runtime-dev :/?16:56
Kurdistanapachelogger, this bug only accures if a user is login out/in serveral times. and login manager in kubuntu is kdm. is it not?16:56
apacheloggercould still be both16:57
apacheloggeri.e. it could be kdm not correctly resetting X16:57
apacheloggeror driver problem16:57
apacheloggerlatter is more likely though16:57
apacheloggerif it were kdm the issue would appear at the second login already16:58
Kurdistanapachelogger, I think also it is driver, becuase if I restart x server when I log out the problem is temporaly solved when I log back16:58

Kurdistanyofel, I am using 11.10. 17:00
yofeldoesn't matter, this is about KDE 4.817:00

yofelwell, from my past experience the icon only task manager comes close17:01
yofel(to stasks)17:01
shadeslayerhmm17:01
shadeslayeryofel: for meta packages, does one just tar up the debian folder and upload?17:01
* yofel wonders if he filed a bug about the transparency effect17:01
apacheloggerKurdistan: well, that is what I am saying :)17:01
yofelshadeslayer: sure, native package17:01
apacheloggerkdm only *resets* X17:01
apacheloggerand clearly things get messed up by that17:02
yofelshadeslayer: tar up == debuild -S17:02
apacheloggerconsequentially a *restart* of X would fix it17:02
Kurdistanapachelogger, so you also think it is graphical driver related?17:02
shadeslayeroh cool17:02
apacheloggerKurdistan: I believe graphics driver is more likely17:02
apacheloggerbut from the things we know it is impossible to tell for sure17:02
Kurdistanapachelogger, thx, then I gave same information like you did to one user in swedish loco.17:02
Kurdistanwe 2 have the same problem17:03
apacheloggerit would be interesting to know what driver/graphics chip they use17:03
Kurdistanapachelogger, np, I am writing also in nvidia channel, I hope they will answer. they are not active like here. :)17:03
debfxI really like that new kde icon tasks manager, might as well just switch to unity :P17:04

apacheloggerand kde-config-touchpad is causing it? :O17:12
Kurdistanapachelogger, I think so, because after removing the problem was solved for me and the user that started the topic in our loco.17:12
apacheloggeroh17:14
apacheloggeryou are autostarting the tray application apparently17:14
Kurdistanapachelogger, do not know. 17:17
apacheloggerwell, I do, I looked at the code :P17:17
Kurdistanor I do not understand you to be honest17:17
apacheloggeronly the tray application uses notifications17:17
shadeslayer*sigh* https://launchpad.net/~rohangarg/+archive/nightly/+builds?build_state=pending17:17
apacheloggerand the tray applicatoin only autostarts if you tell it to do so17:17
apacheloggerso that is not actually a bug :P17:17
Kurdistanapachelogger, okey, so the bug is what?17:17
apacheloggerwell, I guess the bug is that it tells you there is no touchpad even if you have one?17:18
Kurdistanapachelogger, exactly. so how can I and other solve it without removing the package17:18
Kurdistannot everyone will think about it17:18
apacheloggershadeslayer: you know, you can totally testbuild stuff locally :P17:19
apacheloggerKurdistan: the way you turned it on17:19
Kurdistanapachelogger, :) I did not turn it on.17:19
apacheloggeryes you did, the code tells me so17:19
apacheloggerrm ~/.kde/share/config/synaptiksrc17:19
shadeslayerapachelogger: I know, I need to test all of it together now17:19
apacheloggerthen see if the thing still comes up17:19
Kurdistanapachelogger, hehe, okey. thx.17:20
apacheloggershadeslayer: you can totally do that locally :P17:20
Kurdistanapachelogger, I will tell the user that he can also do the way you write by command line.17:22
Kurdistanthen no need to remove the package.17:22
Kurdistancorrect?17:22
apacheloggeryes17:25

shadeslayerawesome, I have exams in the last week of feb myself, so won't be available themn17:35
shadeslayer*then17:35
yofeloh come on... considering they're shipping headers the nepomuk folks sure haven't learned a thing about library management...17:35
Kurdistanyofel, haha +117:36
shadeslayerActually, I think they've been forced to do that17:36
shadeslayersince kdelibs only has those headers in KDE Frameworks17:36
yofelwell, "class NEPOMUK_DATA_MANAGEMENT_EXPORT SimpleResource" and where do I find the symbols?17:36
yofel/usr/lib/libnepomukdatamanagement.so17:36
Kurdistanshadeslayer, same time i have exame. I have two. :)17:36
yofel*headdesk*17:36
shadeslayeryofel: vHanda on #nepomuk-kde could probably help with issues17:37
shadeslayerKurdistan: I have 4 :P17:37
yofelwell, this is really more about: ship headers or don't ship them17:38
yofeland this is making me feel rather bad...17:38
Kurdistanshadeslayer, ok, you win. :P17:38
yofelalthough the abi manager could be a workaround - but do symbol files work without an SONAME?17:38
shadeslayerI used to have 6, but then I came into the 8th semester17:39
yofelScottK: your opinion about this? 17:40
* yofel is for leaving it and trolling nepomuk folks -.-17:41

Kurdistanshadeslayer, I wish us both luck then :). 17:43
Riddellyofel: if it's in /usr/lib it should be versioned17:44
yofelwell, yeah, it *should* - and isn't17:44
yofelguess I can file a bug17:44
Riddellyes, especially if they ship headers17:45
Kurdistanother then does thing I have mentiod kde 4.8.0 have been rock solid so far17:54
Kurdistanwhich kde 4.8.* will be default for kubuntu 12.04 and will kubuntu 12.04 user during this 3 years only use kde 4.8.0 or will it upgrade to newer kde release?17:55
Kurdistanif I am off-topic, then I will write in the right channel.17:55
Riddellusually we ship with the .2 I think17:56
Riddellcheck the release schedules17:56
yofelprobably .2, we'll update up to 4.8.4, 4.9 will be in backports until 12.10 is out - same as before18:03
Kurdistanyofel, ubuntu have backport enabled by default18:04
Kurdistanwill kubuntu also have that?18:05
Kurdistanmean for 12.0418:05
yofelI have no idea how they do the pinning, jontheechidna might know more18:05

shadeslayerhmm18:40
shadeslayerTm_T: you just gave me a idea18:40
Tm_Tshadeslayer: again?18:40
yofelapol: probably using xsettings-kde (except that this needs a MIR too..)18:41

shadeslayerSince Kubuntu is going to be community supported, can't we form a foundation which can fund any expenses that Kubuntu Developers might incur when contributing to Kubuntu?18:41
yofelif not xsettings we would need to set an inifile from kubuntu-default-settings and kcm-gtk18:42
shadeslayerand the funds come for Companies who can buy support from the foundation just like they did from Canonical18:42
yofelshadeslayer: sounds very much like what apachelogger was saying18:42
shadeslayeroh18:42
shadeslayerdid he suggest that already?18:42
apacheloggershadeslayer: what expenses?18:43
apacheloggershadeslayer: also no18:43

Riddelland KDE e.v. has suggested a sprint at akademy18:43
shadeslayerbuy trademark ? :P ( just kidding of course )18:43
yofelTm_T: if you mean the inifile, it would be $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/gtk-3.0/settings.ini18:44
yofelsomeone *could* put up a donation button though somewhere ^^18:44
Riddellit's not as simple as that18:45
Riddellit needs somewhere to donate to18:45
Riddelland then an organisation to dish out the money18:45
shadeslayerTrue, and that means taxes and stuff18:45
Riddella lot of projects have trouble withit18:45
Riddellwith that sort of thing18:45
apolmaybe the donations can go to the kde ev? 8-)18:45
Riddelland as I say, we probably don't need money18:45

jussiTm_T: why ever not? 18:50
Tm_Tbut ye, would be neat if they would worry it for us18:50
Tm_Tjussi: maybe we should convince them for that18:50
Riddellmore useful would be finding a company to sponsor and support it18:51
Tm_Tbut again, for what that money would be18:51
Riddellbut maybe kubuntu doesn't want that18:51
jussiI mean the infra already pretty much exists... just put items in the store which = donations - ie, you buy a 50€ donation. Canonical already dish out random stuff to the community18:51
Riddelljussi: they won't earmark funds.  I doubt e.v. are interested because it's not distro neutral. and it's solving a problem we don't have18:51
Tm_Twe would need money when we begin hiring people, or such18:52
Tm_Tas long as canonical is funding events (UDS) and the jazz18:52

afiestas_and I'd like to have some kind of nightly build of it so I don't have to bother you saying "update, update, update"22:00
yofelfor that we'll need a) a target PPA b) the packaging in a bzr branch somewhere c) me setting up a recipe for it22:02
yofelor telling you how to do that22:02
afiestas_yofel: I don't know even how to change my email ddress in launchpad... so I hope you will take it slow with :p22:16

yofelshadeslayer and Quintasan both know how to set up daily builds too, so maybe they can help until I'm online again22:18
afiestas_apachelogger did this: https://code.launchpad.net/~kubuntu-packagers/kubuntu-packaging/plasma-runner-appmenu22:21
afiestas_how can I copy that to something I can build when I want? that would work too22:21
yofelwell, if you want to build it yourself, make sure the source is in a folder called plasma-runner-appmenu-$VERSION, copy the debian folder from the branch in there, and then you can use dpkg-buildpackage to get a binary package from it, or use dch -i to add a new changelog entry and debuild -S to create a source package to upload22:25
yofellatter only makes sense once you have a PPA22:25
