adnanhcould you be more specific about the asymmetrical rays00:09
adnanhas in, every ray should be different length or as in they should be alternating00:09
ochosiknome: ^00:10
knomeadnanh, not every ray should be different, but there should be some variation, and not really alternating either00:10
knomealternating *might* work, but i'm not sure00:10
adnanhmhm00:10
ochosii think you have to find a pattern or rhythm for them00:12
knomeyup00:13
adnanhthis a bit better? http://dl.dropbox.com/u/17420410/Xubuntu/sun_4.svg00:14
knomehmm, for some reason, now it looks like 4 groups of 2 rays00:15
knomebut maybe that's just me?00:15
adnanhhahaha00:15
adnanhhappened to me with the old one00:15
adnanhdepends where you look at, if you look at the center you see 4 groups of 2 rays00:15
adnanhif you look in the top right one, it should look a bit normal00:16
adnanhbut either way I agree, it's bad00:16
ochosiknome: when layouting a page with divs, would you tend to hardcode widths or keep them at relative terms and try to handle the overflow somehow?00:18
knomehttp://temp.knome.fi/shimmer/weather-icons/sun.svg00:19
knomerelative00:19
knomewhat kind of overflow are you talking about?00:19
ochosihmm, the orange part is a bit too thick for my taste00:19
ochosiknome: simple layouting with image and a few textboxes next to / on top of each other00:19
knomehttp://temp.knome.fi/shimmer/weather-icons/sun2.svg00:19
ochosiwhat's the diff between sun and sun2?00:20
knomebigger middle part in 200:20
ochosialmost not noticeable00:20
knomeyou can always use #inside_div img { width: 100%; }00:21
ochosimaybe adjust the gradient00:21
adnanhochosi, agreed00:22
ochosiknome: approx like this: http://imagebin.org/23519300:23
knomehttp://temp.knome.fi/shimmer/weather-icons/sun3.svg00:23
knomejust try to keep the inner box widths in reasonable sizes00:23
ochosiand then hope for the best?00:24
knomeyou can always set #wrapper { min-width: sth; }00:24
ochosiif it overflows (at least if i work with float) it'll look aweful00:24
knomewhat overflows?00:24
ochosi-e00:24
knomeimages or text?00:24
ochositext00:24
knomemake the text size a bit smaller.00:24
knomeand if you aren't controlling the content, hope for the best00:25
ochosiwell i do control the content00:25
ochosibut i'd have to settle on a minimum resolution first i guess00:25
knomeyes, you probably should do that00:25
knomebtw, just a sec00:26
knomei'll tell you sth cool00:26
ochosi1000px width seems fine, no?00:26
knomei'd maybe go for 990px, leaves a bit of breathing space in 1024 with scrollbar00:26
ochosi(what i hate most is that i have to write it all by myself, no php, no nothing on that server :( )00:26
knome<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="only screen and (min-width:50px) and (max-width:500px)"   href="css/screen_layout_small.css">00:27
knome<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="only screen and (min-width:501px) and (max-width:800px)"  href="css/screen_layout_medium.css">00:27
knomeochosi, you can have multiple layouts for different media like that00:27
knomeof course, doesn't work for everybody, but...00:27
ochosiyeah, too elaborate00:27
ochosii just need a simple page until tomorrow00:27
knomeyeah00:27
knomewell,00:27
knomethe first thing i'd do is try to keep the box widths reasonable00:28
knomeif you can't rethink the layout00:28
ochosiand hardcode them?00:28
knomeeg. put the two smallest boxes on top of each other00:28
knomeand use different font-sizes to separate them00:29
knomeno, not hardcode. just hardcode the min-width00:29
knomeand make sure eg. 25% of that is not too little00:29
knomeif you have 990px min-width in #wrapper, 25% is 250ish00:29
knomeif that works for your content, good00:29
knomeif not, rethink the layout00:29
knomeor the content, if you can.00:30
knomebut usually, the layout00:30
ochosioh meh, i'm maybe too tired tonight for this kind of stuff00:30
knomewith images, use { width: 100%; } to make sure they fallback nicely.00:30
ochosiit's just been ages that i coded html pages by hand from scratch00:30
knomeheh00:31
knomeif you don't care about the order of the content in markup, that's too easy to do00:31
bkerensaknome: why not enough bitesize xubuntu bugs00:36
bkerensa>.<00:36
knomebkerensa, thanks for volunteering to start making a list00:36

ochosiadnanh: nice, looking forward to it00:42

Noskcajalso is i meant to detect my location while in  Vbox08:13
Noskcajand the cursor flashes while scrolling through the slideshow08:21
Noskcajall bugs in ubiquity?08:21
Noskcajand i think partitioning was missing08:23
ochosigood question, could be something else as well08:29
knomeraring daily?08:32
knomemaybe wait for a few weeks at least08:33
Noskcaji was trying to get some early bug reports08:35
Noskcajpartitioning is definatly gone08:35
knomewell, don't try too hard08:36
knomeit's still in the making08:36
Noskcaji know but i'm a tester and thats my "job"08:37
ochosi:)08:37
knomekind of.08:37
Noskcajcan you try and triage when i have finished08:39
astraljavaNext time I'm on my desktop, I'll wipe Studio off of the other disk (I have two), and upgrade to Xubuntu raring. 08:39
ochosiquite _d_aring ;)08:40
Noskcajbug 107690708:40
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1076907 in ubiquity (Ubuntu) "No partitioning in raring daily" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/107690708:40
knomeochosi, har har yar08:40
astraljavaI have to show more trust on the devs when they say they're improving the stability of the dev cycle systems.08:40
astraljavaquantal was already a success, didn't have booting issues even once, and I upgraded just before first alpha.08:41
astraljavaWell, software-related.08:41
astraljavaBut even doko can't fix my crappy hardware.08:41
Noskcajquantal was not a success i get 5 errors a day and the unity launcher doesn;t auto-show08:42
Noskcajunless i use the dev nvidia driver and then i get more bugs08:42
astraljavaNoskcaj: Ehh... not using unity.08:42
Noskcaji know this is the wrong forum go away08:42
knomebbl08:42
astraljavaNo I'm not asking you to go away, just noted as much. :)08:43
Noskcaji know08:43
Unit193What kernel is raring on?08:48
Noskcajis raring meant to have an install progress bar08:49
adnanhHello :)10:39
ochosihi10:40
adnanhhaha, knome didn't push the sun last night? :)10:46
ochosino, it wasn't final :)10:46
adnanh:)10:46
adnanhwhat's up anyway, what did I miss haha10:48
ochosinot much, had to do some commercial work10:49
ochosii thought you have to study for your exams? :p10:49
adnanhI do, making a break, I'm on my phone :)10:51
ochosiah, i see10:51
adnanhRaring will not have partitioning? What?10:51
ochosino, that#s just an early testing bug10:51
adnanhAhh :D10:52
adnanhRegarding the xubuntu-artwork-extras, installer could ask users if they want to download it, like the restricted xtras and language packs :o10:57
ochosiyeah, those things could prolly be done11:00
ochosiwe were also considering showing app-sets to install11:00
ochosibut it really mainly is for ppl who use xubuntu for the first time11:01
ochosiall others pretty much know what they want11:01
adnanhWell yeah11:01
adnanhBut it wouldn't hurt to have that, those who know what they want can just forward skip it11:02
adnanhAnd the newbies will probably like it11:02
ochosiyeah, prolly11:04
ochosii guess we have to find someone who would do the technical implementation then11:05
adnanh:)11:06
adnanhBtw, did terminal background change in 12.10 from that grey color11:07
adnanhI only remember changing it myself in 12.04 before upgrading to 1011:08
ochosiyes11:08
adnanhGreat haha :D11:09
adnanhGreyt xD pun intended11:11
ochosi:}11:12

pjotrHello, I have a feature request for Xubuntu, concerning the current feature of disabling the touchpad while typing.12:24
pjotrthe current feature is set at: syndaemon -i 2.0 -K -R12:24
pjotrpreferable would be (IMHO): syndaemon -i 0.5 -K -R -t12:25
pjotrthe lag is now 2 seconds, which is huge. Plus there's no need to disable the movements of the mouse pointer12:25
pjotrIn Ubuntu, the -t option is already default (with the same 2 seconds delay)12:26
pjotrmr_pouit: what do you think?12:27
mr_pouitpjotr: you should file a bug upstream about that12:51
adnanhhttps://mail.gnome.org/archives/release-team/2012-November/msg00009.html13:07
adnanhgnome3 drops fallback mode13:07
adnanhwhaaat13:07
adnanhand debian drops xfce as default wm13:11
adnanhoh boy13:11
adnanh^ http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/News/2012/2012101813:12
mr_pouitxfce wasn't the default wm in debian anyway13:13
adnanhi think it was going to be after the gnome wasn't going to fit on the cd113:13
adnanhbut that changed :D13:13
pjotrmr_pouit: OK, I'll file it as a bug upstream. I hope I'm in time for Xfce 4.12....13:40
ochosiknome: the icons even look quite nice when upscaled: http://imagebin.org/23524516:06
ochosiadnanh: ^16:06
adnanhis that new sun or the old one16:09
adnanhbut they do look great :)16:09
ochosiit's the old/current sun16:11
ochosii'm still not convinced of changing the style16:11
ochosii have to see something i consider really better/superior before i change it :)16:11
adnanhyea16:15
adnanhI don't mind the old ones as well :)16:15
ochosistill haven't decided how to change the style for the larger resolutions16:18
ochosimaybe i'll just make the lines/shapes thinner and more elegant16:19
ochosii don't wanna replace the "symbolic" simplistic look with "realistic" i think16:19
ochosi(and not only because it'd be a lot of work)16:19
adnanhhmm16:36
adnanhshould the sun loose gradient to make it more consistent with clouds?16:36
adnanhand moon16:36
adnanhlose*16:37
ochosiprobably16:38
ochosiin 22px it's not very noticeable16:38
ochosiit just makes the sun a bit smoother16:39
adnanhtru16:39
adnanhtrue*16:39
adnanhand yeah, the heavy rain raindrops could maybe have thinner lines16:41
