mr_pouitmmh, this is "alpha week", isn't it?10:27
mr_pouitso I'll upload exo 0.10.0 and thunar 1.6.0 next week, not to disturb testing...10:27
elfydidn't think there were any alpha's - just specific testing as and when 10:36
mr_pouitknome will know10:39
smartboyhwmr_pouit, no alpha except Kubuntu I think10:43
smartboyhwI saw on the -release mailing list10:43
mr_pouitno alpha except Xubuntu10:47
mr_pouitoh no, you're right10:48
mr_pouitso I don't need to wait ;>10:48
elfymr_pouit: not as far as I know 10:49
knomemr_pouit, no, just go ahead10:53
smartboyhwmr_pouit, exact mail: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-release/2012-November/002088.html10:54

zequenceknome: Hi. We changed the look on the Ubuntu Studio front page a bit. Put the news page there. Let us know what you think14:32
knomezequence, i know you did. i helped scott do it :)14:32
knomezequence, also, see the RT ticket i sent (you should've gotten an autoreply from RT)14:32
knomezequence, as long as you/US are happy, i'm fine with whatever you do with the site :)14:33
zequenceknome: What is the code changing? Something about the news?14:33
knomezequence, go to the front page, and scroll to bottom14:34
knomewait, what...14:34
knomezequence, well, there used to be an unnecessary link at the footer.14:34
knomezequence, it's simply removing that (a very trivial change) and some php comments14:35
knomeanyway, 99.99% of people wouldn't even notice that14:36
knome:)14:36
knomehey bluesabre 14:36
zequenceYea, probably14:36
bluesabrehey knome14:36
zequenceWe'll be doing a bit more news postings now, so hopefully that page will come alive more14:36
knomezequence, if there's something else you need from me regarding the administration or code, feel free to ping me14:36
knomezequence, but generally, please go away and change things as you see fit, no need to ask my permission :)14:37
zequenceknome: I think we aren't sure yet what we want, but one thing that comes to mind is it might be nice having a header on the front page, above the news, saying something like "Latest News"14:43
knomezequence, right. do you think you'll make progress on knowing what you want soonish, or should i push that change in now?14:44
zequenceknome: Let me discuss it first. As it is a change in the code, would be ok if we could upload ourselves, but with all the hazzle of going through rt. seems like we better be totally sure14:45
zequenceI'm assuming you need to do a change to the theme..14:45
knomeyup. you can't pass IS though.14:46
knomeas long as the site is served by canonical, IS will need to go through the changes14:46
knomethat's why i asked if you're progressing; it's easier to get more changes in at the same time than dropping small things here and there14:46
zequenceWould probably be best to use a staging site in our own control. I could set one up.14:48
zequenceknome: I'll get back to you :)14:49
knomeprobably, if you're unsure of the changes you want to do14:49
knomezequence, great! :)14:49
knomehey micahg, you around and have a moment?15:09
micahgknome: a short moment :)15:11
knomemicahg, do you know if the action buttons applet uses xfce4-session-logout?15:11
micahgknome: offhand, no idea15:11
knomemicahg, if yes, what's the parameter to give to it to get the confirmation dialog?15:11
knomemicahg, if not, what's the command to get that?15:11
knomemeh15:11
knomei was hoping you knew ;]15:11
* micahg hasn't really dug into the xfce codebase, mr_pouit would be the one to ask15:12
knomeyeah, i know, but he's idle15:12
knomei'll just try to find out myself15:12
micahgI can look later in the week if he doesn't get back to you15:12
knomenah15:12
knomei'll just dig it up somewhere15:12
micahgknome: figure out which binary hosts it, pull-lp-source foo; then grep15:12
knomeor ask him if i haven't found the answer before lionel gets back15:12
knomei looked at the source already, i don't think it's that15:13
micahg(that's what I'd have to do anyways)15:13
knomebut... :)15:13
knomei'll find out.15:13
knomethanks anyway :)15:15
knomeand have a nice day/evening15:15
GridCubeknome, http://docs.xfce.org/xfce/xfce4-panel/actions15:25
GridCubeits says; The plugin uses xfce4-session to handle the power actions, so it won't function properly if you use another or no session manager. 15:25
knomeGridCube, that seems outdated, and it's not really the question :)15:32
knomeGridCube, uses xfce4-session for sure, but what's the dialog/how does it call it to get the confirmation screen15:32
knomeGridCube, i don't mean the screen you get where you can choose what you want to do15:32
knomeGridCube, but the dialog which asks you if you *really* want to shut down/whatever15:32
GridCubeoh, ok, im trying to figure out how that progam is called actually, theres no reference to "action buttons" on the xfce git or synaptic15:33
knomexfce4-session-logout is the one that's launched15:33
knomebut that + --help doesn't tell me how to get the confirmation dialog if i choose a specified action15:34
GridCubethats the logout, not action buttons15:34
mr_pouitthe small dialog with the timer is created by the panel pkugin15:34
mr_pouit*plugin15:34
GridCubehow is that plugin called?15:35
knomemicahg, that tells a lot.. :)15:35
knomeerr, mr_pouit 15:35
mr_pouithttp://git.xfce.org/xfce/xfce4-panel/tree/plugins/actions/actions.c#n72515:35
knomemr_pouit, so there's no way to get that without the applet?15:36
mr_pouitI don't think so15:38
knomeexit15:38
knomeoops, wrong window15:38
knomeso, yeah15:38
knomethat answers my question15:38
knomei'll just do something else then15:38
mr_pouithop, this thunar 1.6.0 upload closes 23 bugs16:22
knomecool16:22

pleia2there is now a https://www.facebook.com/xubuntuhungary17:49
pleia2two admins who are known in the hungarian community, and me17:49
GridCubethere should be a xubuntu.deviantart.com, to ask for wallpapers and such17:52
pleia2I think we'd need to make the decision to include more artwork first17:53
pleia2which means dropping more default apps or going beyond CD size17:53
GridCubepleia2, not so sure, i mean, having a place where we can encourage our users to go and find a theming community for their desktops aint that bad, regardless of wallpaper space17:54
micahgwe can have stuff in the archive that's not in the default install17:55
pleia2micahg: ah, right!17:55
pleia2GridCube: I just don't want to tell people to do work that has no possibility of being included17:55
pleia2waste of effort and all that17:55
micahgwe can even do like Ubuntu Studio and have an installer in the menu that says get more wallpaper here or something17:56
pleia2yeah, I like how they do that for some things17:58
pleia2I want one for gimp and gnumeric :)17:58
* drc has used the same wallpaper for...or...three or four years :)17:58
pleia2drc: yeah, me too17:58
elfyI've probably still got the wallpaper I used 3 years ago ... 17:59
pleia2*normal* people really like default selections of backgrounds17:59
elfyoh right ... 17:59
elfy:)17:59
drcthere's a difference between never throwing anything away and using the same thing for a long time:)17:59
elfyha ha 18:00
drcI <might> use differing wallpapers if you could assign a different one to each virtual desktop18:00
pleia2that would be neat18:00
elfythen I'd feel honour bound to have different ones on each screen and would go nuts choosing 18:01
pleia2hehe18:02
drcSeeing as how I only have 2 VD's, it's not much of a problem for me.18:02
pleia216 \o/18:02
drcI'd have to take my shoes off to count that high.18:03
pleia2true18:03
elfyme too drc 18:03
* drc thinks pleia2's machine must resemble a maze of twisty passages full of grues.18:05
* pleia2 always carries a flashlight18:07
* drc wonders how many turns it takes her to turn it on?18:07
drcBut back to GridCube's original idea...There are many places one can get/put wallpapers...not sure there needs to be a "xubnuntu" wallpaper site/place/whatever.18:10
drcMaybe a greater appeal to the artistic community for new wallpapers for new issues?18:11
knomethe problem with wallpapers are the size.18:47

GridCubeknome, that can be arranged on the submit to gallery preferences of the deviantart groups19:17
knomethere are other ways to sort it out if they are not on the ISO.19:20
GridCubemmhm yes19:20
