| odie__ | is there a good util for switching windows from the command line or script in kde4? | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| Hudsonkem | bprompt akonadi is using it? whats akonadi do? | 00:02 |
| bprompt | Hudsonkem: kaddressbook, kwallet, kontac, korganizer, pretty much the PIM apps information database service | 00:03 |
| Hudsonkem | hm.. got it, thx | 00:04 |
| Hudsonkem | why when google chrome call dolphin open/salve dialog its appear without color scheme? | 00:08 |
| bprompt | well | 00:08 |
| bprompt | Hudsonkem: the app uses some "file dialog" subroutine, is not really Dolphin's or have to be KDE's or QT's either, in this case, google chrome, as well as otrher browsers like firefox, use GTK dialog | 00:09 |
| bprompt | so, is up to the app, whatever file dialog it will use, no up to the window manager or the desktop manager | 00:10 |
| Hudsonkem | hm.. got it | 00:12 |
| Hudsonkem | so, no fix :V | 00:12 |
| odie__ | is there a scriptable program for switching windows in kde4? | 00:12 |
| odie__ | like something I can put as part of a shell script or program | 00:12 |
| bprompt | odie__: no need for that, alt-tab =) | 00:13 |
| odie__ | I need it as part of the state for a script | 00:13 |
| odie__ | i need to switch to a window, focus on it, and pipe a command to it | 00:14 |
| bprompt | Hudsonkem: what you can do is, change the GTK theme to something you'd like instead, or some gtk theme that resembles whatever theme you're using in kwin :), and you can do that in System Settings > appearance > gtk appearance | 00:15 |
| mparillo | bprompt: It seems to me that if I install rekonq first, google-chrome uses kdialog. If I do not install rekonq at all, google-chrome uses something else. | 00:16 |
| bprompt | hmmm | 00:17 |
| bprompt | mparillo: I'm thinking it uses gtk theme all along, BUT, you can change what gtk theme to use in a kwin session, through System Settings > Appearance | 00:18 |
| bprompt | mparillo: or may just ba a system kde/qt variable that's being set, that chrome uses, bearing in mind that other app use as well, like Adobe reader or firefox | 00:19 |
| mparillo | Alas firefox has its own strange file dialog. | 00:21 |
| odie__ | does plasma have a console api? | 00:23 |
| bprompt | odie__: think so, from what I recall, you can use Krunner to run kde dialogs, not sure if that comprises plasma | 00:24 |
| bprompt | !krunner | 00:24 |
| bprompt | woops | 00:25 |
| bprompt | !find krunner | 00:25 |
| ubottu | Found: W:, W:, W:, W:, W:, W:, W:, W:, W:, W: (and 1 others) http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=krunner&searchon=names&suite=wily§ion=all | 00:25 |
| bprompt | odie__: but if you install KDevelop suite, I think it has a few kde api samplers | 00:26 |
| Unit193 | !find krunner | 00:26 |
| ubottu | Package/file krunner does not exist in wily | 00:26 |
| odie__ | is there a wiki for the kwin/plasma shell scripting apis | 00:26 |
| mparillo | This might be how the kdialog is invoked under the covers? https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=190556 | 00:26 |
| odie__ | i see functionality scattered about is there a wiki for objects | 00:26 |
| mparillo | And I experience this bug related to kdialog on Chrome and Chromium: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=323650 | 00:27 |
| ubottu | KDE bug 323650 in general "KDialog incredibly slow to respond" [Normal,Unconfirmed] | 00:27 |

| lordievader | That makes sense. | 13:18 |
| lordievader | The root doesn't have access to your display. | 13:19 |
| BluesKaj | plus why is it looking for mir ? | 13:19 |
| I_need_Help | but sometimes it works | 13:20 |
| I_need_Help | most times after a reboot | 13:20 |
| BluesKaj | this won't solve your synaptic problem, but why not install muon ? it works well | 13:21 |
| lordievader | I_need_Help: Does synaptic elavate its right when you want to install something? (After you have started it without sudo?) | 13:21 |
| I_need_Help | no | 13:22 |
| lordievader | Hmm... | 13:23 |
| I_need_Help | i dont know if its realtet but sometimes bleachbit also dont with root | 13:25 |
| I_need_Help | and kwin_x11 crashes a lot | 13:25 |
| BluesKaj | have you been updating and upgrading your packages to bring them up to date ? | 13:26 |
| I_need_Help | evertying shoud be up to date | 13:27 |
| BluesKaj | frankly, I dunno how well synaptic isa supported anymore , it's quite an old app and muon has mostly replaced it over the last few yrs | 13:30 |
| I_need_Help | ok thanks | 13:30 |
| lordievader | If it wants Mir... something tells me it might only work (well) under Unity. | 13:31 |
| I_need_Help | dosent kubuntu use wayland? | 13:31 |
| lordievader | No. Not yet anyways. | 13:32 |

| est31 | I can't even unzip zip files anymore | 19:19 |
| est31 | without using the console | 19:19 |
| est31 | or opening ark and many many more clicks and useless submenus | 19:19 |
| est31 | There is an "activities" right click menu but it contains bullshit | 19:20 |

| suncokret | hello, what is better to install, kubuntu 14.04 or 15.10? | 19:46 |
| est31 | I reallly regret to have moved to 15.10 now | 19:46 |
| est31 | there is lots of stuff happening in kubuntu land right now | 19:47 |
| lordievader | suncokret: That depends, do you want the newest of the newest. Or do you want (rock)stable? | 19:47 |
| est31 | best option is to install an LTS and wait for the dust to settle | 19:47 |
| est31 | 15.10 isnt newest of newest | 19:47 |
| lordievader | In terms of releases it is. | 19:48 |
| est31 | in terms of ubuntu releases, yes | 19:48 |
| est31 | not in terms of software releases | 19:48 |
| est31 | then rolling release is better | 19:48 |
| suncokret | i use now lubuntu 14.04 and it is great, i wish to try kubuntu and i think to try 14.04 too because it have long support, but i ask what you people say | 19:48 |
| suncokret | do you use kubuntu 14.04? | 19:49 |
| lordievader | I only have Kubuntu 16.04 installed on a test box. | 19:50 |
| VeryBewitching | 15.10 here. | 19:50 |
| lordievader | suncokret: You could ofcoure try 15.10 as a vm or in the live-environment. | 19:53 |
| suncokret | how you use 16.04, is that some alpha version or what? | 19:54 |
| VeryBewitching | suncokret: Current build of the next release. | 19:54 |
| lordievader | suncokret: Yes, development release. | 19:54 |
| VeryBewitching | There's probably snapshots available for such things. | 19:54 |
| lordievader | suncokret: I am part of the Kubuntu Teststers Team ;) | 19:55 |
| suncokret | so you are help for developing | 19:55 |
| suncokret | and how much people are in team? | 19:55 |
| lordievader | Not a whole lot. We could allways use more ;) https://wiki.kubuntu.org/KubuntuTesters | 19:57 |
| suncokret | i don't have time for that but i hope i will find enough time to install 14.04 :) | 19:58 |
| suncokret | so almost 400 members... | 20:00 |
| lordievader | Oh, that ain't a representive measurement... | 20:01 |
