minashokry | Hello, is there a way to get pidgin tray icon back in 13.04? | 00:15 |
---|---|---|
graingert | minashokry: only the messaging menu in 13.04 | 00:17 |
graingert | minashokry: I believe the option to have tray applets got removed | 00:17 |
graingert | minashokry: once everyone stopped using java and skype added support for Indicators | 00:17 |
minashokry | graingert: but the tray icon is a critical feature to know who is talking while their chat windows are in background, what are alternatives? | 00:18 |
graingert | minashokry: Indicator Applet | 00:19 |
graingert | that works? | 00:19 |
graingert | no? | 00:19 |
minashokry | which on exactly is the indicator-applet? the one with the letter icon? | 00:19 |
graingert | minashokry: pidgin should integrate with the mesaging inidcator applet | 00:20 |
graingert | yeah | 00:20 |
graingert | that | 00:20 |
graingert | Pidgin should be there | 00:20 |
graingert | otherwise stick with the dire horribleness that is empathy | 00:20 |
minashokry | it works but pidgin tray itself was much better | 00:20 |
minashokry | anyway, thanks | 00:21 |
graingert | minashokry: :( | 00:21 |
graingert | I know | 00:21 |
graingert | we can all shed a tear for the system tray | 00:21 |
minashokry | so are there problems between tray and java? you mentioned something like that? | 00:22 |
graingert | Java has an api for using system trays on any operating system | 00:22 |
graingert | doesn't work in ubuntu | 00:22 |
graingert | 'cause ___ you that's why | 00:22 |
minashokry | since java 6 it has | 00:22 |
graingert | minashokry: Ubuntu has added an exception for it | 00:23 |
graingert | till 13.04 when they binned it | 00:23 |
minashokry | why ubuntu developers hate the tray? :$ | 00:24 |
bjsnider | because there were no set standards for it, so anyone could make their icon do whatever they wanted, and it caused inconsistencies and hurt the user experience | 00:25 |
bjsnider | amongst other things | 00:25 |
bjsnider | there have been many blog posts and articles about this | 00:25 |
bjsnider | it's also called the notification area | 00:26 |
bjsnider | system tray is an unofficial windows name | 00:26 |
minashokry | but completely disabling it hurts too! | 00:26 |
minashokry | this is the worst surprise ever I got when I upgraded an ubuntu release | 00:27 |
Kow | are the KDE devs still in the process of porting the codebase to QT5? i do recall that KWin was an issue | 01:37 |
wilee-nilee | Kow, try #kde | 01:45 |

sary | Salutaions! | 17:04 |
sary | I've successfully upgraded from 12.04 to 13.04, is it okay to install ubuntu-gnome metapackages! are there any known issue i should know about ? | 17:04 |
bcurtiswx | any google docs integration in raring (like gnome-documents) ? | 17:46 |
bazhang_ | bcurtiswx, apt-cache search google brings up some results | 17:48 |
bcurtiswx | hmm, i see something close, but no nautilus integration.. Seems that will be raring+1 with gnome-documents | 17:52 |
bcurtiswx | maybe | 17:52 |
SuperLag | If you try dpkg --set-selections < saved_package_list and it says 'package not in database' for every line... how do you fix that? | 18:13 |
SuperLag | I've already done an apt-get update, after the install was complete. | 18:13 |
Ponch0 | my software updater gets stuck on applying changes.. is there anyway to update manually? | 21:41 |
bjsnider | Ponch0, open a terminal, typ sudo apt-get upgrade | 21:48 |
Ponch0 | bjsnider: I always forget about upgrade and type - update.. thanks | 21:49 |
Ponch0 | ok after updating/upgrading I seem to have some issue with cups/dpkg? | 21:58 |
roasted | hello | 23:25 |
roasted | any of you cool cats running Google Chrome on 13.04? | 23:25 |
roasted | I'm trying to install Google Chrome. It of course fails, requiring apt-get install -f, and it prompts me with 163MB that needs to be downloaded. I hit Y and it simply says processing triggers and 2 seconds later returns to the regular prompt. | 23:31 |
roasted | :) | 23:42 |
sary | hi again roasted :) | 23:52 |
roasted | hi | 23:53 |
sary | you mean the open source edition " Chromium " ! | 23:53 |
roasted | samba is proving to be quite a train wreck in 13.04 | 23:53 |
roasted | no | 23:53 |
roasted | Chrome | 23:53 |
sary | okay , installing it from a deb package or from PPA ! | 23:54 |
