lordievaderGood morning.07:45
acheronukWas able to install the daily YY iso today by doing this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1593258/comments/408:40
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1593258 in ubiquity (Ubuntu) "16.10 KDE Daily Ubiquity Crash" [Undecided,Confirmed]08:41
jimarvangoood morning! :)08:52
acheronukmorning :)08:52
lordievadero/09:08
clivejointeresting work around!09:28
acheronukclivejo: well, it is rather but force yes! 09:59
acheronuk*brute force09:59
yofelwell, kicking the slideshow off the image is easy enough...10:22
yofelsomething should take its place though10:22
acheronukwill ubiquity accept anything non webkit based to show there I wonder?11:11
IrcsomeBot<Sick_Rimmit> How have Ubuntu main fixed this, or does their slideshow not work also ?11:14
acheronukdo they use pyQT4webkit at all? if not, then no need to fix?11:18
yofelthey don't use PyQt4, hence they don't have the problem11:26
yofelwe use our own self-written UI11:27
yofelthe backend code is the shared part11:27
acheronukummmm. http://pyqt.sourceforge.net/Docs/PyQt5/pyqt4_differences.html11:43
acheronuk"PyQt5 is not compatibile with PyQt4 (although experience shows that the effort in porting applications from PyQt4 to PyQt5 is not great). "11:43
acheronukNot great? 11:44
lordievaderYes, not a lot of effort is needed ;)11:47
lordievaderSometimes it is quite simple porting a Qt4 application to Qt5.11:47
acheronukthe ui doesn't seem to import a huge number of modules....12:02
BluesKajHiyas all12:06
soeewell people like to have the slides https://plus.google.com/u/0/110954078302330754910/posts/9Hef1REh2bd12:12
acheronuksoee: seems so. I can see the point that in long term they should be there. or something else giving info on what's new, how to get support etc...12:31
acheronuklooking at the code, I certainly won't be porting that any time soon though.12:32
soeeyup12:37

acheronukclivejo: https://launchpad.net/~acheron/+archive/ubuntu/qt5test/+packages?field.name_filter=&field.status_filter=published&field.series_filter=xenial17:53
acheronukwill see what happens with that for xenial. could all go horribly wrong17:54
clivejoso is 5.6.5 the last in the road for Xenial?19:12
acheronukplasma? presumably yes, in any official or semi-official form19:17
clivejoshould probably work on getting that backported then19:22
acheronuksome fixes in there that people have asked about19:29
clivejoany come to mind?19:30
clivejohas anyone else tested 5.6.5 on Yakkety?19:30
acheronukmaybe mamarley?19:31
clivejofor me its rock stable19:31
mamarleyacheronuk: clivejo: Yep, running it right now.  No problems to report. :)19:31
clivejobut Id like at least 5+ to give the thumbs up19:32
acheronuknot got a real machine on YY I'm afraid19:32
clivejotut tut!19:32
acheronukI know I know19:33
clivejoRik are you voting on Thursday?19:34
acheronukwhich Rik? me19:34
acheronukI will be19:34
clivejoyup you19:34
clivejoLOL I dont have to ask about Rick19:34
acheronukREMAIN!19:35
clivejooh a contrast from the other Rick!19:35
acheronukhe wants to leave then?19:36
clivejoId assume that from his Youtube videos!19:36
acheronuknot looked at those19:37
mamarleyclivejo: Does it count that I am running it on 4 computers?19:38
clivejodifferent hardware?19:38
mamarleyNot radically different.  They are all x86_64 with NVIDIA graphics, though two of them are old enough to require the 340 drivers.19:39
mamarleyTwo of them are desktops and the other two are laptops.  Two of them have dual monitors.19:39
clivejoany issues?19:39
mamarleyNope, none.  You guys have done an excellent job!19:40
clivejowell that does set my mind as ease a bit19:40
mamarley(At least no packaging issues, anyway.  I do have a minor issue where the panel flashes transparent sometimes when doing stuff with maximized windows, but I have a hunch that is a Qt 5.5 bug and will be fixed in Qt 5.6.19:40
clivejooh my panel flashes sometimes19:41
clivejolike its drawing a nofication message19:41
clivejobut doesnt19:42
clivejohi Jim!20:34
jimarvanyo!20:51
mparilloclivejo: You mention [Plasma] 5.6.5 on YY? Is it in a PPA?21:09
clivejoplasma staging21:09
mparillosudo add-apt-repository ppa:kubuntu-ppa/staging-plasma ?21:11
clivejosounds good21:11
mparillo268 packages to update. I noted kactivities kde-l10n-engb kde-spectacle language-pack-kde-en21:13
mparillo  libkf5screen6 will all be removed.21:13
soee:)21:21
mparilloUpdate successful. Re-booting.21:22
acheronukplasma-desktop-data still has breaks << 4:15.12.3-0ubuntu3~ on the language packs21:23
clivejoyup21:23
clivejoneed to update apps too21:24
mparilloKInfocenter reports Plasma 5.6.5. The upgrade fixed the <alt><f2> biding for krunner that seemed to not work recently.21:26
soeeare you on Frameworks 5.23 ?21:26
mparilloYes21:27
soeecan you check if you can create any global shortcut and if it works ?21:27
mparilloAnd it looks as if I really lost kde-spectacle.21:27
soeeso add some shortcut to any global action that doe snot have it21:27
mparilloSorry, I thought I knew how to add a global shortcut. I went to System Settings > Shortcuts and tried to bind About KDE to <ctrl> <alt> F12, but I got a black streen.21:34
mparilloDo you have a suggested way?21:35
acheronukCTRL+ALT+F12 is a VT switch, so so you can assign that away in kde AFAIK21:37
acheronuk*can't21:40
mparilloAhh, TY. What would be a good open key combination?21:42
acheronuksoee: do you mean add a shortcut on an application already listed in the global section?21:44
acheronukor add a whole new one in the custom section?21:45
clivejomparillo: did you install apps 16.04.1?21:47
clivejoneed to install spectacle from that21:47
acheronukmparillo: anything unassigned - meta+ctrl+a?21:47
soeeacheronuk: check if custm global shortcuts work generally21:47
acheronuksoee: so either or both then21:48
soeeso 21:51
soee? :)21:51
mparilloFor apps 16.04.1, I need to sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kubuntu-ppa/staging-kdeapplications ?21:53
mparilloI set in Global Keyboard Shortcuts Konversation Next Active Tab to meta+ctrl+a and it worked. 21:55
soee:/22:00
soeemparillo: can you create new activity and bind shortcuts to both than22:00
soeeand check if they work ?22:00
mparilloI created a new activity. What do you mean by bind shortcuts to both?22:04
soeeyou can switch to given Axtivity by shortcuts assigned to each of them22:05
mparilloI went to the new activity in the Activities, clicked on the configure part, set meta+ctrl+b to, but it did not switch to it.22:08
jimarvangn everyone! :) see  ya tomorrow22:09
jimarvanmparillo22:09
mparilloIn fact, when I go back to the activity, the binding seems not to have been saved.22:09
jimarvanmparillo: hmm why meta+ctrl+b rings a bell, as key shortcut? hmmmmm...22:10
mparilloI will try c then.22:11
jimarvanthat too22:11
jimarvanxD22:11
jimarvanthe "a" seems safe, b and c somehow not22:11
jimarvanso you are trying to switch activities using the global shortcuts right?22:12
soeeyes22:12
jimarvanhmm that is interesting indeed22:12
mparilloNo, I was assigning it in the Activity itself under the Other tab.22:12
jimarvanoooooh22:12
soeei think the binding is broken since Frameworks 5.2322:13
jimarvanye i think so too22:13
jimarvanit does worth a look tomorrow! :) gn!22:14
mparilloNo better using a instead of b. As soon as I click OK, then go back in, it is not saved.22:16
mparilloAnyway, got to put some meat on the grill. Good night.22:16
