| Daekdroom | Is anyone else having issues with KDE and characters such as "´e" (which should be a single thing...)? | 00:58 |
|---|---|---|
| valorie | huh | 02:22 |
| hggdh | indeed, cannot use accents, or umlauts on KDE | 02:42 |
| tsimonq2 | hggdh: So THAT is how you say that... that's the u with the two dots on the top, right? | 02:46 |
| hggdh | tsimonq2: correct :-) | 02:47 |
| hggdh | tsimonq2: in German it is called umlauts; in Portuguese, tremas | 02:48 |
| hggdh | in English... I have no clue (alough some old spellings use it, like naïve) | 02:49 |
| tsimonq2 | hggdh: Spanish teacher talked about it too | 02:50 |
| tsimonq2 | hggdh: Forgot how to say it in Spanish... but it exists! :D | 02:50 |
| hggdh | tsimonq2: I believe you,,, but I know no Spanish :-) | 02:52 |
| tsimonq2 | hggdh: Oh, I remember how she pronounced it, but I'll probably spell it wrong... dierisies? | 02:54 |
| tsimonq2 | hggdh: Anyways, carry on. ;) | 02:54 |
| hggdh | tsimonq2: dieresis, yes, sounds like it | 02:57 |
| tsimonq2 | Ohhhhhhhhhhh that spelling makes more sense | 03:01 |
| hggdh | just looked up, in english it is called diaeresis (and the "ae" gets to sound like "eh" | 03:03 |
| tsimonq2 | Ohhh so it's NOT the u? | 03:07 |
| hggdh | ä == ae, ö == oe, ü = ue | 03:09 |
| tsimonq2 | Interesting | 03:09 |
| hggdh | I do not know the phonetic symbols, but ä sounds like an open "eh", and ö sounds like a closed "eh" (English) | 03:12 |
| tsimonq2 | Fascinating. | 03:15 |
| valorie | what? of course you can use them | 04:55 |
| valorie | good grief | 04:55 |
| valorie | people using KDE software write in most of the languages on earth | 04:56 |
| valorie | hggdh: ^^^ | 04:56 |
| valorie | including rtl ones | 04:56 |
| supriyob | When will Xubuntu 17.04 be released ? | 10:19 |
| ducasse | see the topic, as i told you in #ubuntu | 10:20 |
| hggdh | valorie: yes, they do write in almost all languages. As they do on *buntu in general | 12:10 |
| hggdh | but, still, accents are notworking on kubuntu | 12:13 |
| [4-tea-2] | Howdy. The days of being able to get rid of systemd (which I despise) are gone for good? | 12:59 |
| ducasse | pretty much. | 13:03 |
| [4-tea-2] | Shame. | 13:04 |
| brunch875 | is systemd still growing? | 13:12 |
| [4-tea-2] | Apparently, DNS resolution is now done by systemd. I noticed when it stopped working. | 13:12 |
| brunch875 | at some point stallman will give up and begin calling it systemd/linux | 13:12 |
| brunch875 | or linux/systemd | 13:12 |
| [4-tea-2] | :D | 13:13 |
| brunch875 | and eventually systemd alone | 13:13 |
| [4-tea-2] | Not fun if your scripts break because name resolution just fails randomly. Well, back to using IP addresses. #2017 | 13:19 |
| [4-tea-2] | Looks like my issue was with mdns4_minimal. Without that, name resolution seems (more) stable. Whatever that means. | 13:31 |
| Volkodav | Hi! A partial upgrade is offering to remove 20 packages mostly libgnome2 and libbonobo. Should I keep or remove? | 15:06 |
| TheOneMenzie | Volkodav: I'd do a full upgrade if at all possible | 15:12 |
| Volkodav | I just removed them and rebooted - all good so far | 15:13 |
| Volkodav | Still have to check around | 15:13 |
| TheOneMenzie | Oddly enough I have no idea what would be using Bonobo or GNOME 2 libraries in this day and age | 15:14 |
| ducasse | mate? | 15:15 |
| TheOneMenzie | ducasse: I have nothing under [ sudo apt search bonobo | grep -i installed ] | 15:20 |
| ducasse | TheOneMenzie: have you got mate installed? | 15:22 |
| TheOneMenzie | Yeah | 15:23 |
| TheOneMenzie | On dev branch | 15:23 |
| TheOneMenzie | 1.18, with GTK+ 3 | 15:23 |
| TheOneMenzie | IIRC | 15:23 |
| ducasse | looks like there are several apps that depend on bonobo. | 15:25 |
| TheOneMenzie | Such as? | 15:26 |
| TheOneMenzie | Anything in MATE 1.18? | 15:26 |
| ducasse | 'apt rdepends libbonobo2-0' for example | 15:27 |

| valorie | hggdh: sorry for the late response | 22:07 |
| valorie | if that is so (about lack of diacritical marks in Kubuntu) please file or comment on a BR | 22:08 |
| valorie | tsimonq2: would be cool if you could test and comment as well | 22:08 |
| valorie | I set up the compose key to work, but not sure if I did so on this laptop | 22:10 |
| valorie | u | 22:10 |
| valorie | evidently not | 22:10 |
| valorie | UU | 22:11 |
| valorie | Ŭ | 22:16 |
| valorie | Ū | 22:17 |
| genii | That seems to have worked | 22:18 |
| valorie | yes, but I'm not seeing how to all all the alternatives yet | 22:18 |
| valorie | Ü | 22:19 |
| valorie | Ü | 22:19 |
| valorie | huh, how to get small u umlauted | 22:19 |
| k1l | ü | 22:20 |
| k1l | (easy on my german keyboard :X ) | 22:20 |
| valorie | right | 22:20 |
| valorie | ŭ is just compose u | 22:20 |
| valorie | U | 22:21 |
| valorie | compose shift U | 22:21 |
| valorie | useless | 22:21 |
| valorie | ú | 22:21 |
| valorie | compose ' u, makes sense | 22:21 |
| valorie | Ü | 22:22 |
| valorie | add shift and get umlaut, makes no sense | 22:22 |
| valorie | pff | 22:22 |
| valorie | don't care enough | 22:22 |
| valorie | https://userbase.kde.org/Tutorials/ComposeKey | 22:23 |
| valorie | for those who *are* interested | 22:23 |
| krytarik | Well, certainly if you have to type these characters regularly, you'll have an appropriate keyboard layout set anyway.. | 22:23 |
