JonelethIrenicushave you all heard of the Kubuntu firefox-plasma ppa?00:47
valorieJonelethIrenicus: I have not01:03
valoriewhose PPA?01:03
valorieand what's in it01:03
mparilloIt looks like it comes from OpenSuSE, right? Arch (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/firefox-kde-opensuse/) points you to (https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/mozilla:Factory/MozillaFirefox) where I expect the patch is: https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file/mozilla:Factory/MozillaFirefox/firefox-kde.patch?expand=101:37
valoriewe used to have a KDE overlay01:38
valorieyears ago though01:39
mparilloI asked Phil about this some years ago, and he said something to the effect that, especially for an LTS, having the Ubuntu team handling browser security patches without requiring the Kubuntu team was a good thing.01:39
mparilloI am voting for Falkon (formerly Qupzilla) just as soon as KDE releases it, but that goes back to our identity. What happens when a KDE s/w (e.g. Kalligra) does not fully match up to non KDE s/w (e.g. LO).01:41
valorieI will join your vote for Falkon mparillo01:49
valoriewhen it is released01:49
mparilloTY. If it is at all close, I would prefer a KDE browser, or even a Qt one, even if FF is a bit more capable. 01:51
mparilloQupzilla is my main browser on LXQt, and it has a few funny things. For example, if use an arrow to scroll, then right click on a link and open in a new tab, I need to click back into the scroll bar before the arrow works again for scrolling.01:54
valoriethat's odd01:55
valorieit was hard to give up konqueror and then rekonq01:55
valoriebut as they bit-rotted, eventually we had no choice01:56
mparilloI was about the last to drop rekonq (it launched so quickly), but its security vulnerabilities and its inability to handle javascript heavy sites eventually drove me away.02:06
valorieI was an early adopter, but my bug reports were ignored or just "wontfix"02:07
mparilloA common problem in open source ... too many spots where there is only one core developer, and if that developer is not interested, gets bored, life intervenes, users get stuck, often without notice.02:09
mparilloAs an example, look at the last couple of comments on this page (https://adjamblog.wordpress.com/2014/01/12/rekonq-2-4-2/comment-page-1/#comment-3913) Then https://adjamblog.wordpress.com/2014/01/12/rekonq-2-4-2/comment-page-2/#comment-4184.02:13
mparilloNot to blame adjam. Who knows what happened. But it happens more often than we open source cheerleaders like to admit.02:14
valorieshadeslayer used to work on that team02:46
valoriebut it seems perhaps that that "one man" was already getting burnt out at that point02:46
valoriethis is why we always need to build some sort of team *always*02:47
valorielone devels become burnt and lonely02:47
blazeI'm surprised how many people are downloading the beta iso08:47

BluesKajHey ahoneybun12:15
mparilloblaze: I recall that I used to think in general that by the time you got to Beta-2 (Gradually, I shifted sooner and sooner), you were better off with the next release than the current, even with backports. Maybe that is why we are getting so many downloads. Of course, maybe it is the shift from Unity to Gnome giving people incentive to try the flavours. Or maybe it is our renewed social media push. 12:55
blazeactually there were lots of howtos lately showing off the way to tranform Plasma into something Unity-like13:02
blazebtw, what do you think about adding "Unity mode" for the next release?13:09
BluesKajplasma is my way of getting away from unity/gnome :-)13:10
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> clive wants to add a look and feel package for unity refugees13:11
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> I'm not as against that as I used to be, but it would need a good job doing with it13:12

JonelethIrenicusvalorie: ya it basically just allows for some sane defaults such as being able to use your plasma file picker/saver dialog14:38
JonelethIrenicusmparillo: valorie personally I love vivaldi and the direction they are going14:38
JonelethIrenicusjust don't like the privacy issues14:39
JonelethIrenicusi dont think it makes sense to completely re-write firefox's interface to qt personally, but making it so it at the very least launches the Qt or whatever the default DE's file picker is.14:43
JonelethIrenicusThat is probably something all Linux users could agree with.14:44
JonelethIrenicusis there some middleware program that launches this for all DEs?14:44
JonelethIrenicusor boiler plate code?14:44

DarinMillerIs anyone experiencing plasmashell crashes on 17.10 especially after resuming from sleep?  I have 2 systems on 5.10.95, one never crashes and one crashes freqently.  A third system with  5..9.1 plasma has crashed only once on resume from sleep in last 5 months.16:13
DarinMillerThe crashes do not produce an error report that is submittable for bug reporting purposes.16:14

clivejoDarinMiller: how did you install United?22:10
DarinMillerYes, it works great.  Everything is configureable unlike Unity...22:12
clivejohow did you do it?22:12
clivejothe download doesn't seem to have any wallpaper etc22:13
DarinMillerI had dl' the file since sys settings was failing to list workspaces, but after running updates and relauncing sys settings, I was able to search/find united from the "Get  New looks" menu.22:15
DarinMillerThe wallpaper came down, but I had to manually find it in the wallpaper selection.22:24
clivejohi greyback22:41
clivejoDarinMiller: I can only see previews in the tarball22:41
DarinMillerthat is strange, the wall paper definitley came down with Sys Set install, but in the tar file I only see the preview.png and fullscreenpreview.png also.23:09
clivejowonder does it download it23:14
DarinMillerI am unsure of the source.  It's was on the 17.10 beta laptop that received a fresh install last Wednesday.   The install has 10 wallpapers that magically appeared, one is the Ubuntu background, the rest are pictures.23:17
DarinMillerI don't recall manually downloading any of the wallpapers but none of my other 17.10 boxes have them.  Not sure how they landed on that box.23:21
