[00:12] Wait, not working for you? It should, I've got it on artful/amd64, artful/i386 and zesty/i386. :3 [00:56] Evening all [00:56] Not sure what happened, flocculant let me know what I can do to help [00:59] flocculant: it's all context sensitive, Parole's "Clear History" just clears it from the recent items, the playlist is session-based unless the setting is toggled to persist across sessions [01:00] Unit193: making some good progress on the pa plugin currently, got some stuff that compiles, and a screenshot that I hope to achieve https://i.imgur.com/pCXUY9S.png [01:12] Unit193: who knows - the new one appears to do sod all [01:13] bluesabre: works here - in the real world - not sure what Dave is seeing tbh - just responding to cooment on tracker tab [01:13] bluesabre: Oooh, shiny! [01:13] Unit193: I like shiny [01:13] flocculant: OK, is indicator-application installed and running? [01:13] covers up all the bad things :p [01:14] Unit193: not sure tbh - not convinced reboot happened [01:16] ii xfce4-statusnotifier-plugin 0.1.0-0ppa1~17.10 [01:18] OK, just make sure indicator-application isn't running, and that statusnotifier is added to the panel of course. [01:19] wolf 3979 3836 0 02:18 pts/1 00:00:00 grep --color=auto xfce4-statusnotifier-plugin [01:19] could be - not convinced about reboot [01:19] ^^ [01:19] Nope, you'd grep for statusnotifier [01:20] wolf 3992 3836 0 02:20 pts/1 00:00:00 grep --color=auto *statusnotifier-plugin [01:20] brb [01:21] unit193 2434 0.0 0.7 580128 14896 ? Sl Jul24 0:21 \_ /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/xfce4/panel/wrapper-2.0 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/xfce4/panel/plugins/libstatusnotifier.so 24 12582940 statusnotifier Status Notifier Plugin Provides a panel area for status notifier items (application indicators) [01:21] bluesabre: But seriously, that's pretty fantastic. I don't suppose you've poked andrzejr? [01:21] webootid [01:21] Unit193: I'll poke him once I have something functional [01:22] Unit193 bluesabre - tbh not really sure wht this plugin gives us, nor sure what difference to what we had [01:23] flocculant: hide "Application Indicator" from indicator-plugin, restart it (pkill panel-.*-indica), kill service (pkill indicator-applic), sn-plugin should work then [01:23] and to be completewly frank [01:23] bluesabre: nice! [01:23] I have no ide what idea ANY of the things I grab from ooa's give me any more [01:23] and I don't knwo if Dave is about [01:23] a headache? :D [01:24] and I've got a whole shit load of stuff to do next year - none of which actually need a pc at all :p [01:25] flocculant: It being Xfce upstream is certainly a plus, it's actually maintained whereas -application will be less and less. indicator-application covers a minimal portion of the 'indicator' spec whereas statusnotifier covers more, and better. The indicators keep changing, it's been more and more of a pain to keep them working with xfce4-indicator-plugin, even now if they're terminated wrong, the [01:25] icons will disappear with the applications still running.. [01:25] ninetls: That about cover it? [01:26] Unit193: didn't understand! [01:26] Dowh. :( [01:26] > That about cover it? [01:26] yea icons disappeared - but given I wasn't actually expecting that - nor them randomly appearing it just felt like some of that [01:27] really don't know how to translate it correctly [01:27] xfec do shit and then eventually tell people and THEN it is normal [01:28] ninetls: "Did I cover the various ways the panel plugin statusnotifier is better, in Ubuntu, than using xfce4-indicator-plugin with indicator-application" :D [01:28] nice! [01:28] I understand this! [01:28] !! [01:28] yes [01:29] flocculant: As long as the plugin is loaded into the panel, ie you added it, then you should be set. [01:29] xfce4-panel --add statusnotifier [01:30] wow [01:30] panel can even this? [01:30] I didn't know about this command! [01:31] It'll ask you which panel if you have two, but yeah. [01:31] -a just brings up the dialog for selecting the plugin. [03:05] a bit more progress, http://imgur.com/a/2yvOz :) [03:05] night all [03:06] oooh [03:07] bluesabre: that soundy stuff - share it with me - I alsa for music for usb/dac [03:07] so can test it outside pulse [03:08] ah [03:08] not sure pulseaudio-plugin works well with alsa, but maybe it does? :D [03:08] :D [03:09] anywho, will notify folks when I have something functional [03:09] well atm it fails as well as the other plugin - eg does zilch :) [03:10] bluesabre: if you've got a goit one that sees medfia players - I will happily test that [14:07] thoughts? http://imgur.com/a/CGbBu [14:08] about what exactly? :) [14:08] working on adding sound-indicator powers to the pulseaudio-plugin [14:08] generally looks good to me [14:09] the media players specifically :) [14:09] no complaints [14:10] cool [14:10] might have this working by the end of the weekend :) [14:12] :) [14:26] i wish i could say the same about my own project :P [14:28] looks good [14:28] at least i'm making some progress [17:14] Indicator seems to do song info and album art. [17:24] from my POV as somebody who doesn't use the indicator but listens to a lot of music with correct metadata, i'd say the album art would be just a waste of space and resources there. song information probably good to add if it isn't too hard [17:24] or add it later [17:27] I can live with that very easily, better to ask someone else (notice the wording), I think having mpris integration is nice, but wouldn't be a showstopper for me personally. [18:15] Unit193: yeah, just doing a minimal support version initially [18:15] Though, the most value is just being able to pause or switch tracks easily [18:16] Can't do anything with pianobar. :( [18:16] Add mpris to pianobar :D [18:17] https://github.com/PromyLOPh/pianobar/issues/567 [19:16] flocculant: I'm back of holiday now
