JontheEchidna^was pretty awesome00:51
shadeslayeryeah00:54
shadeslayershould I just move ktp 0.5.1 to kubuntu-backports?01:15
valorieI upgraded to Quantal and have no problems so far03:32
valoriealthough I noticed this today: http://wstaw.org/m/2012/10/08/plasma-desktopTN2364.png03:34
valorieis that KDE, or Quantal though?03:34
valorieI opened systemsettings to fix my right touchpad button, but upgrades seemed to have fixed it without my intervention03:36
valorieshadeslayer: have you seen the above in Kubuntu, or is it KDE? ^^^04:23
shadeslayeroh sec04:24
shadeslayerI'm on precise04:24
shadeslayerhm04:26
shadeslayervalorie: can you try and install xinput=1.5.99.1-0ubuntu204:28
shadeslayersudo apt-get install xinput=1.5.99.1-0ubuntu204:28
valorieok04:31
valorieE: Version '1.5.99.1-0ubuntu2' for 'xinput' was not found04:32

valorieI need to build that from the deb?04:38

valoriedanke04:41
valorieall of a sudden 5 people talking to me about 5 different things....04:41
valorie:-)04:41
shadeslayerheh04:41
valorieok, now that it's built, try again with systemsettings?04:42
shadeslayervalorie: s/built/installed04:42
shadeslayerand yes please04:42
valorieright, built and installed04:43
shadeslayerno no, you didn't build anything :)_04:43
valoriesame "error" message04:44
shadeslayerhmph04:44
shadeslayersomething deeper in the X stack then04:44
valoriedidn't dpkg do that?04:44
shadeslayerno, dpkg just unpacked and installed everything04:44
valorieol04:44
valorieok, I mean04:44
shadeslayerthe deb you downloaded is the binary package that was built by LP04:44
valorieso part of the point of that is that it says "X needs version 2.0 and you only have version 2.0"04:45
valoriethat's crazy talk04:45
shadeslayeryeah04:46
shadeslayerit's clearly not reading the version correctly04:46
valorieI dunno if it is on-topic here or not, but I notice with this new computer -- in precise as well as now in Quantal, that when I select text, it no longer can be pasted with the double-buttons04:50
valorieis that a change in linux, in kubuntu, KDE, or just my touchpad?04:50
shadeslayerpasted with double buttons?04:50
valorieI miss it04:50
valorieit worked with my mouse as well as the old touchpad04:51
valorieboth buttons pasted the last selected text04:51
valorieunless I went to the clipboard and selected something different04:51
valorieI hate having to control-C/control-V04:52
shadeslayerdoesn't work here as well04:52
valorieinstead of just select/paste04:52
valoriewell, did it ever work for you?04:52
shadeslayerpossibly it's because KDE changed their defaults04:52
shadeslayeryes it did earlier04:52
valorieit always has for me since the beginning of time04:53
valorieok04:53
shadeslayervalorie: right click on the desktop > Settings > Mouse Actions04:53
valoriebeginning of time=using linux04:53
shadeslayerset middle button to paste04:53
valoriewhich was KDE04:53
valoriecool!04:53
valoriedanke schon04:53
shadeslayerthough I still have to ctrl-C04:54
shadeslayerah yes, works now04:54
shadeslayervalorie: np04:54
valorieso should I file a bug somewhere about that systemsettings error?04:57
shadeslayervalorie: maybe #ubuntu-x can help?04:57
shadeslayerI'm not too familiar with the X stack to comment reliably04:58
shadeslayerit's clearly not a bug in synaptiks since the version on precise and quantal is the same04:58
shadeslayerand it works in precise04:58
valorieI never tried it in precise, so can't say04:59
valorieI'll ask in -x and see what they say05:00
valoriethanks again05:00
shadeslayernp :)05:00
jussishadeslayer: I some how broke something... telepathy isnt connecting any more (kopete does...)05:31
shadeslayer0.o05:32
shadeslayerjussi: stop breaking things :P05:37
shadeslayeranywho05:37
jussilol05:37
shadeslayerjussi: precise right? Try out 0.5.105:37
jussishadeslayer: deb location?05:37
shadeslayerhttps://launchpad.net/~rohangarg/+archive/nightly05:38
shadeslayergoing to copy it to the official ppa after you test05:38
shadeslayerthis will also break password protected rooms btw05:38
shadeslayerI'll patch 0.5.1 and send you the deb if 0.5.1 works for you05:39
shadeslayer( will figure out how to make it dbus activated later today )05:39
jussishadeslayer: I dont want to add the whole ppa if possible05:42
shadeslayererm ... uh05:42
shadeslayerjussi: I'll copy to kde telepathy ppa then05:42
shadeslayerbecause it works just fine for me05:42
shadeslayerjussi: copying should be done soonish05:45
jussiok05:45
tsdgeosRiddell: so the plan is adding the .mo to the packages now? (e.g. like to konversation-data?)07:12
valorieshadeslayer: one thing about that weird error message is that evidently we are very much behind the server for xinput07:53
valorie$ xinput --version07:54
valoriexinput version 1.6.007:54
valorieXI version on server: 2.207:54
shadeslayer0.o07:57
valorieI see that our status has been postponed: investigate kde touchpad enabler for packaging/inclusion - find out what exactly this means and what it does and bleh07:58
shadeslayerhah07:58
shadeslayerthat'd be apachelogger07:58
valorieso maybe that's why07:58
valorielol07:59
valorieanyway, gonna file the bug against synaptiks in KDE and then someone will come over here and bug y'all to fix that08:00
valoriehopefull08:00

danimotsdgeos:  I think I am facing an ubuntu-specific systray problem in my app08:12
danimotsdgeos: some menu entries are not indented and not clickable08:13
danimotsdgeos: as if they were meant as some kind of clever caption-separators08:13
danimotsdgeos: (but I did not flag them as such)08:13
tsdgeosmenu entries as in the menus that appear in the top level thing? or that appear in the indicator thing?08:13
danimotsdgeos: sni08:14
tsdgeosdon't really have much experience in that side to be honest, but if you create a launchpad bug and give me the bug # i can give it a look as i'm in "let's fix random distro bugs that polish experience" mode 08:15
shadeslayertsdgeos: I didn't know you worked for Canonical, when did you join?08:17

tsdgeosdanimo: good luck :D08:18
danimotsdgeos: tnx :)08:19
danimotsdgeos: will be fun to see if I can make a screenshot of that08:19
danimotsdgeos: what component would I file it against?08:25
danimotsdgeos: just unity?08:26
tsdgeoshmmmm08:26
tsdgeosi guess just put it there 08:26
tsdgeosand then someone will move it to the appropiate place08:26

afiestasI'm going to release new versions today, but I know that packaging a new version is always a bigger deal09:28

MamarokRiddell: there are some changes that would improve Nepomuk indexing a lot: http://soliverez.com.ar/home/2012/10/nepomuk-not-indexing-a-large-home/10:43
Mamarokwould this be possible for 12.10?10:43
shadeslayerMamarok: it doesn't *improve* nepomuk afaik10:43
vHandaBasically increasing the inotify watcher limit10:43
shadeslayer^10:43
vHandashadeslayer: you're right. It fixes Nepomuk10:44
Mamarokshadeslayer: oh yes it does improve the indexing10:44
vHandawithout it we're quite unusable10:44
shadeslayerwhat vHanda said :P10:44
vHandaso the word "improve" wouldn't be quite correct10:44
Mamarokso why did I have to do it manually?10:44
Mamarokthis should be in Quantal by default10:44
shadeslayerraising the inotify limit is something that would need discussing with ubuntu, since it will most likely affect everyone10:46
Mamarokwell, I am sure other apps would improve as well10:47
shadeslayervHanda: is there a chance that raising the inotify limit would adversely impact other apps?10:48
Riddellhmm, I remember doing this many years ago10:49
smartboyhwyears?:D10:49
Mamaroksmartboyhw: years ago the default inotify limit was so low nobody could work decently10:50
smartboyhweee10:51
vHandashadeslayer: not that I know of10:54
Riddellfrom the comments on that blog " I did something similar on my desktop, and certain packages (*cough* mediatomb *cough*) allocate memory based upon how many watches a user can open."10:54
Riddellbut I've no idea what mediatomb is so it's not important :)10:55
yofel_hmm...10:55
shadeslayerRiddell: UPnP server10:55
yofel_and to what should that be set? We already have10:55
yofel_/etc/sysctl.d/30-nepomuk-inotify-limit.conf:fs.inotify.max_user_watches = 52428810:55
vHandaRiddell: well that behavior is retarded.10:56
vHandaThey should fix it10:56
shadeslayervHanda: what would you recommend as the default inotify limit?10:56
Riddellyofel_: ah hah that's the one I was half-remembering10:56
vHandashadeslayer: it's hard to say11:01
vHandawe need as many as the number of directories11:01
yofel_Mamarok: to what value did you set it?11:01
vHandaso '524288' should be enough11:01
MamarokI set it to 600000 for me, but vHanda know better :)11:02
yofel_that's not much higher than our value, so I'm wondering how that could've impoved indexing for you o.O11:03
vHandawe need 1 per directory, other applications may require some as well11:03
yofel_unless you have really MANY folders11:03
vHandayofel_: we also have a retarded all or nothing approach - If inotify limit is exceeded11:03
vHandathen we rely on kio and remove all our watches11:04
yofel_>.>11:04
vHandacause otherwise we would be breaking other application11:04
vHandaby consuming all the watches11:04

apacheloggerafiestas, Riddell: about touchpad enabler thing work item ... assigned to kubuntu-dev means no one to ask14:59
apacheloggeralso once again I'd argue that the WI in general is crap as that is why I added the note about not knowing what the WI is about to begin with14:59
apacheloggerRiddell: usb-creator should work(tm), but needs a maintainer :/15:00
apacheloggerJontheEchidna: bout the dragon leak ... looks a lot like a gst leak TBH, though I do happent o know crap leaks somewhere in dragon/phonon, not that excessively tho15:01
apacheloggerJontheEchidna: fixed in next release: "ooh, symptom, when I run dragon and then close it, a window playing the file from the beginning again shows (with no UI elements other than the video) and then closes"15:02
apacheloggerJontheEchidna: also I still need to watch the doctors :S15:03

debfxhas anyone used kde-config-touchpad recently? there are a number of bug reports in LP and it doesn't look very maintained upstream :(15:03

ScottKRiddell: It's in ninjas since it's not publically released until wed.15:53
ScottKshadeslayer: ^^^15:53
RiddellScottK: oh I see, I don't actually bother observing the release embargoes on calligra, too much effort in my opinion, and in this case it'll be easier to get it in the archive today than on wednesday15:55
ScottKRiddell: Dunno if you're subscribed to Bug 1048600 or not, but sabdfl had a question it's probably easiest for you to answer since you've done Ubuntu font testing before.15:56

tsdgeosapachelogger: what's up with the touchpad enabler?16:11
apacheloggertsdgeos: I do not know what it is and afiestas complains that I do not know and subsequently postponed the item after feature freeze :P16:13
tsdgeosnice thing i compiled it myself then :-)16:14
afiestasapachelogger: I complain  that I thought "it was going to be in" this cicle andf it is not16:14
afiestasand the only apparent reasonis you didn't get it16:14
afiestaswhich is finde, but dude ask me or tsdgeos (developer of it)16:14
afiestasnow we will have o wait 6 months :/16:14
apacheloggeryeah16:15
apacheloggeras I said16:15
apacheloggerassign WIs to people16:15
apacheloggerif WIs are not assinged to anyone it is hard to ask16:15
afiestasokz, can't comment on how kubuntu works, just I was really shocked of the "I don't get it blablabla" if it wasn't the real reason16:16
afiestasbut the real reason is "WI are not assigned to anyone" then it's fine16:16
apacheloggerafiestas: it's "I did not know and did not know whom to ask both because the WI is crap" ;)16:17
apacheloggerbut yeah16:17
apacheloggerwe really should try to always have WIs assigned to someone16:17
apacheloggerit's not like that person will have to do them, but they'd be in charge of makign someone else do it OR be a point of reference for people who'd want to work on it and need more info16:17
