[03:00] <OvenWerks> Hmm, this is less than good.... KDE with the US metas added and low latency Kernel seems to perform better.
[03:01] <OvenWerks> (than a ubuntustudio install with xfce)
[03:15] <OvenWerks> zequence: remember talking about smooth video on my old graphics card? Videos are fine on KDE and skip in US.
[03:16] <OvenWerks> same kernel, same video, same player
[04:21] <zequence> exit
[04:22] <zequence> oh, that old error
[08:56] <zequence> OvenWerks: We need to remove theming entirely from ubuntustudio-default-settings. It's not the place for that
[08:57] <zequence> Actually, I'm wondering about a lot of the dependencies for it
[08:57] <zequence> We need to revive a ubuntustudio theme package
[13:13] <OvenWerks> zequence: I am working on menu and icons first.
[13:14] <OvenWerks> All we do in settings is to set the default theme
[13:54] <OvenWerks> separation of packages is becoming more inportant as we work with more than one DE
[14:21] <zequence> OvenWerks: The default theme is not someting that belongs in settings
[14:21] <zequence> And, that is not what settings is for
[14:22] <zequence> At least it didn't use to be, as far as I can recall
[14:24] <zequence> Ah, never mind
[14:24] <zequence> Maybe I just remember wrong
[14:28] <zequence> It's good that there's no conflict between the different flavors, as it seems, since they all have their own sessions
[14:29] <zequence> It would be nice if we could add our specific stuff to existing DE sessions without conflicting with them
[19:54] <OvenWerks> zequence: I think we are agreeing in different words :)
[19:55] <OvenWerks> A theme itself should not be in settings. A theme package should not make itself default (I don't think) maybe it could ask the installing user if they would like that.
[19:56] <OvenWerks> If a distro wants a theme to be the default on install, I don't know where else that info would go besides settings
[21:04] <OvenWerks> zequence: Dumb question... icons that are to be installed in "hicolor" to make our menus work are not really part of the US icon theme, should they instead be put in the -menu package?
[21:04] <OvenWerks> zequence: my thought is that installing the US-menu package should give a working menu with all needed icons, desktop files and directory files
[21:07] <OvenWerks> This also leaves Mish (or whoever) free to change the icon package without breaking anything.
