| ngaio | Should I be filing a bug related to the broken theming? In the main menu (is it called kicker?) I'm getting black squares instead of icons; Plasma tools like "Configure Notifications" have no theme, and my Qt5 app looks like it has no theme either. Is this expected? | 09:32 |
|---|---|---|
| valorie | certainly it is not expected | 09:45 |
| valorie | when did you first notice this, ngaio? | 09:45 |
| ngaio | valorie, I fist installed kubuntu vivid about 3 weeks ago, perhaps. It's been present since that time. | 11:55 |
| soee | good morning | 11:56 |
| ovidiu-florin | Quintasan: ping | 11:57 |
| ngaio | valorie, in any case I need to leave now, so we'll discuss it another time :) | 12:00 |
| BluesKaj | Howdy all | 12:23 |
| KDDA | hi BluesKaj | 12:26 |
| BluesKaj | Hi KDDA | 12:27 |
| ovidiu-florin | we are having a talk about the Kubuntu website here: https://meet.jit.si/KubuntuWebsiteSprint plsea join if you are interested | 14:43 |
| BluesKaj | another website without FF support :/ | 14:45 |
| lordievader | Pff | 14:48 |
| lordievader | Should it be a mostly black screen? | 14:52 |
| ovidiu-florin | lordievader: no | 14:54 |
| ovidiu-florin | refresh | 14:54 |
| lordievader | ovidiu-florin: Does it really need webcam and microphone access? | 14:55 |
| ovidiu-florin | no | 14:55 |
| ovidiu-florin | you can disable that | 14:55 |
| lordievader | Still give a black screen though. | 14:55 |
| lordievader | Meh, too bad. | 14:57 |
| mparillo | Does not work in rekonq either. | 15:04 |
| BluesKaj | well, I have no camera or mic connected to this pc, so this site is immaterial | 15:04 |
| mparillo | https://meet.jit.si/KubuntuWebsiteSprint gives a black screen on Chrome for me. | 15:06 |
| BluesKaj | and chrome addresbar font is small it's unrteadable on a TV/monitor from 3.5M | 15:06 |
| BluesKaj | so small | 15:06 |
| BluesKaj | doesn't expand with ctl+ | 15:07 |
| BluesKaj | I like chrome, but it's annoying on a large monitor ..wish google would fix those hard coded fonts and get with progress, not everyone usses 22" monitors anymore | 15:09 |
| soee | whats the problem ;) | 15:10 |
| soee | increase font DPI in Chrome settings and done | 15:10 |
| soee | well its called page zoom or something | 15:11 |
| soee | im using 125% | 15:11 |
| soee | on my laptop and all is fine :) | 15:11 |
| mparillo | soee: I think BluesKaj means not the fonts in the web page, but the font on the address bar. | 15:15 |
| BluesKaj | that's not dpi soee | 15:15 |
| BluesKaj | I'm using 150% on the webpage with laege fonts but the sddressbar remains tiny even with the smallest font setting at 14...this is a 42" monitor/tv ,mnot a laptop | 15:17 |
| soee | ah, ok | 15:17 |
| BluesKaj | addressbar | 15:17 |
| ovidiu-florin | meeting is over | 15:49 |
| mparillo | ovidiu-florin: I am a big fan of two things: http://www.nngroup.com/topic/web-usability/ and I agree that whoever wrote about a call to action was on the right track, but I would frame it differently. I think the approach should be to put the design at the service of what a visitor wants to do. First time visitors may want to know what makes Kubuntu the right distro for them (I assume most visitors know about distros, | 15:53 |
| mparillo | but that might be a bad assumption). Returning visitors probably want to know what is new, and where can they get it. A call to action can also be to build an ethos of "now that you like this, how can you pay it back" by pointing at the community. | 15:53 |
| siddharth7 | hi devs, anyone around? | 16:43 |
| BluesKaj | depends | 16:52 |
| === soee_ is now known as soee | ||
| KDDA | anyone know the status of KDE Connect? | 18:56 |
| Riddell | we need to package 0.8 and there's a kf5 version due out | 18:58 |
| Riddell | siddharth7: you pung? | 18:58 |
| Riddell | ovidiu-florin: what's new from your website sprinting today? | 18:58 |
| KDDA | are you Jonathan Riddell? | 19:01 |
| alket | how is 15.04 coming out, is it somehow stable, im very temped to install it my main computer | 19:04 |
| Riddell | alket: the Beta is looking pretty good | 19:05 |
| alket | thanks | 19:05 |
| KDDA | alket: Im using it as daily driver, looking very good indeed | 19:05 |
| Riddell | KDDA: busy writing a history of Kubuntu, 10 years old next month! | 19:05 |
| siddharth7 | i didn't get you Riddell | 19:05 |
| alket | nice Riddell , can't wait to read it | 19:05 |
| KDDA | congrats | 19:05 |
| Riddell | siddharth7: you asked if anyone was around | 19:06 |
| KDDA | you have been involved from day one? | 19:06 |
| Riddell | before day one | 19:07 |
| siddharth7 | yeah, I wanted to know if any dev is available here to hep me | 19:07 |
| Riddell | back when it was just rumours and I was trying to get KDE's attention to them | 19:07 |
| Riddell | siddharth7: usually you just say your problem and someone may help or may point you at somewhere more appropriate to help | 19:07 |
| siddharth7 | ok | 19:07 |
| KDDA | I only jumped ship when Unity made me ! | 19:07 |
| siddharth7 | i want to contribute to Kubuntu | 19:08 |
| siddharth7 | are there any projects available? | 19:08 |
| Riddell | siddharth7: of course, lots :) | 19:09 |
| Riddell | siddharth7: we need software packaged, coding to be coded on, much stuff tested, users to be supported | 19:09 |
| Riddell | there's a todo list at https://trello.com/kubuntu | 19:10 |
| Riddell | much of what we do is packaging software, I'm always happy to give tutorials in doing that | 19:10 |
| alket | I remember when I installed Kubuntu in 2009 , it was so bad i never looked at it anymore, then Unity made me too , but this time Kubuntu was awesome xD | 19:11 |
| siddharth7 | I generally use python and PyQt, do you have anything regarding these two? | 19:11 |
| Riddell | siddharth7: yep, our installer ubiquity is in need of a port to Qt 5 | 19:11 |
| siddharth7 | ok | 19:12 |
| siddharth7 | so can you help me get started? | 19:12 |
| Riddell | bzr co lp:ubiquity :) | 19:13 |
| Riddell | see if you can install it and run it | 19:13 |
| Riddell | running debuild should get it compiled and installed | 19:13 |
| Riddell | running it, well it's an OS installer so you need to be very careful not to wipe your disk when running it on an installed system | 19:14 |
| Riddell | which you can do by telling it not to unmount and not to install to the disk you're using | 19:14 |
| Riddell | but it's a risk | 19:14 |
| KDDA | Riddell: is there issues with the dist upgrade from 14.10? | 19:14 |
| siddharth7 | is its installation similar to ubuntu? | 19:15 |
| siddharth7 | and which version should i install | 19:15 |
| siddharth7 | ? | 19:15 |
| yofel | KDDA: there is one known issue so far | 19:15 |
| Riddell | siddharth7: install the kubuntu vivid beta | 19:16 |
| Riddell | it's just the same as installing ubuntu desktop, but more colourful | 19:16 |
| yofel | KDDA: see https://wiki.kubuntu.org/VividVervet/Beta1/Kubuntu#Known_Problems (mostly the last point) | 19:16 |
| siddharth7 | ok | 19:17 |
| KDDA | yofel: my upgrade didnt go very well | 19:17 |
| KDDA | had to install fresh | 19:18 |
| yofel | hm, do you still have the upgrade logs? | 19:18 |
| KDDA | maybe, where would they be? | 19:18 |
| yofel | /var/log/dist-upgrade/ | 19:19 |
| yofel | but if you reinstalled already they're probably gone | 19:19 |
| KDDA | it was the same problem I had last night, black wallpaper and no kickoff menu etc | 19:19 |
| yofel | odd | 19:20 |
| KDDA | took me 4 days to get it working! | 19:20 |
| KDDA | I thought it was the NVidia graphics | 19:20 |
| KDDA | the installer kept crashing on the hardward part | 19:20 |
| KDDA | which log are you interested in? | 19:23 |
| yofel | the apt term log | 19:25 |
| KDDA | any particular part? | 19:26 |
| yofel | just wondering if there's any errors. If not, it might be something with the plasma config files. Not sure where to look there | 19:27 |
| Quintasan | ovidiu-florin: pong? | 19:29 |
| KDDA | thats what Im starting to think | 19:29 |
| KDDA | to get plasma working last night I had to delete the config files | 19:30 |
| KDDA | I moved the .cache and rm plasma* | 19:30 |
| KDDA | nothing in ther logs popping out at me | 19:32 |
| KDDA | where would that hardware "issue" be logged? | 19:35 |
| alket | Fresh Install is always the way | 19:40 |
| alket | to go | 19:40 |
| KDDA | alket, tell Kontact that! | 19:46 |
| alket | just copy the config | 19:46 |
| KDDA | its a nightmare to get configured again | 19:46 |
| alket | make a backup with SpiderOak | 19:47 |
| alket | and sync it across your computers | 19:47 |
| KDDA | does it backup Akonadi and MySQL records it needs? | 19:48 |
| alket | well i keep my projects on bitbucket private | 19:49 |
| alket | and I have configured git to also push the mysql schemas | 19:49 |
| KDDA | I sync with Kolab servers and can never seem to fix Akonadi when it decides to die on me | 19:50 |
| KDDA | works brilliant when its working, but nightmare when it starts misbehaving | 19:50 |
| BluesKaj | is akonadi necessary ? | 19:52 |
| KDDA | seems to be for Kontact | 19:52 |
| KDDA | and the Groupware elements of it | 19:53 |
| KDDA | is the home directory encyrption still buggy in 15.04? | 19:56 |
| KDDA | has anyone found that switching focus to another window sometimes takes a few clicks? | 20:40 |
| ovidiu-florin | Quintasan: glad to see you're back | 20:52 |
| ovidiu-florin | I've already talked to Paweł | 20:52 |
| alket | wow, im very impressed by Kubuntu 15.04 | 21:20 |
| alket | Installation went smooth, just that it didn't recognise that I'm connected to internet | 21:21 |
| KDDA | alket: how are you connected? | 21:32 |
| alket | lan cable | 21:33 |
| KDDA | it working now? | 21:33 |
| alket | yes now it works | 21:35 |
| alket | also it was working on live cd | 21:35 |
| alket | just installer didnt knew about it | 21:35 |
| KDDA | just not in the installer | 21:35 |
| alket | also Yakuake doesn't work :s | 21:35 |
| KDDA | Konsole is crashing when you close it too | 21:36 |
| KDDA | still few wee bugs :) | 21:36 |
| alket | yep | 21:39 |
| alket | did anyone get Yakuake to work | 21:39 |
| KDDA | dont use it | 21:39 |
| KDDA | but Ill try :) | 21:39 |
| alket | well it works now :) | 21:39 |
| alket | becuase it was complaining that Konsole wasn't installed | 21:39 |
| alket | but after apt-get upgrade it works :) | 21:40 |
| KDDA | you fixed it! That was fast! | 21:40 |
| alket | I didn't do anything :) | 21:40 |
| KDDA | works for me too :) | 21:41 |
| alket | also xorg-edgers have ppa for this version | 21:41 |
| alket | :') | 21:41 |
| KDDA | is the main desktop display staying on F1? | 21:42 |
| alket | whats F1 | 21:42 |
| KDDA | it used to be Ctl Alt F8 | 21:42 |
| KDDA | but has moved to F1 | 21:42 |
| alket | F1 doesn't do anything for me | 21:43 |
| KDDA | I used to use Ctl Alt F1 to drop into a terminal | 21:43 |
| KDDA | cause your on default desktop | 21:43 |
| KDDA | F1 is the one you're on now | 21:44 |
| alket | yes | 21:44 |
| alket | I thought was stuck | 21:44 |
| alket | started to use all F* | 21:44 |
| alket | hehe , F1 got me back | 21:44 |
| KDDA | before it used to be F8 | 21:44 |
| alket | yes | 21:45 |
| KDDA | for some reason its moved :/ | 21:45 |
| KDDA | caused me a bit of confusion | 21:45 |
| alket | yes me too , I thought for a moment that you tricked me hehe | 21:46 |
| alket | until I hit F1 | 21:46 |
| KDDA | must be part of Wayland | 21:46 |
| alket | what 15.04 uses wayland | 21:46 |
| KDDA | apparently | 21:46 |
| alket | how to check | 21:47 |
| KDDA | not sure :/ | 21:54 |
| KDDA | alket: I read it somewhere | 21:58 |
| KDDA | Kubuntu isnt going to be using MIR which is Ubuntu's main display server | 21:59 |
| valorie | kwin will not use mir, yes | 22:00 |
| KDDA | hi valorie :) | 22:01 |
| KDDA | was I speaking with you yesterday? | 22:01 |
| alket | also GTK applications look very ugly | 22:01 |
| KDDA | I like the look of 15.04 | 22:02 |
| KDDA | alket: have you noticed strange behaviour in focus switching between applications? | 22:03 |
| alket | hmm no | 22:04 |
| valorie | hello | 22:06 |
| valorie | yes, I'm always here | 22:06 |
| alket | hi valorie | 22:06 |
| KDDA | valorie I installed latest gramps today, but getting an error "OsmGpsMap module not loaded" any idea how to fix? | 22:08 |
| valorie | hmmm, I did fix that, but can't recall what package fixed it.... I used apt-cache search to look at all the osm-related packages and found some stuff | 22:28 |
| valorie | there is also info on the gramps wiki | 22:28 |
| KDDA | I installed python-osmgpsmap but still complaining :/ | 22:32 |
| alket | im getting flicrs on some dialogs | 23:16 |
| alket | who do I complain too xD | 23:18 |
