Unit193...Did I do anything with that after the testbuild?00:47
bluesabreYou ok Unit193 ?01:00
Unit193Should I not be?01:01
bluesabre:)01:08
Unit193Distracted with supper, packaging something else, and whatnot.01:12
Unit193Oh yes, backporting backages too.01:12
Unit193One of those needs a 'p'01:12
bluesabreThat's cool. Currently shopping around.01:13
Unit193bluesabre: Hey, I meant to ask.  What happens if you have the lightdm config but not numlockx installed?01:59
bluesabreUnit193: oh02:26
bluesabresomething bad02:26
bluesabreSuppose the options there are 1) add a wrapper script to which and run, 2) move to core-depends02:31
Unit193That's what I was thinking, except recommends.02:33
Unit193How bad?02:33
bluesabregreeter doesn't start02:33
bluesabreUnit193: solution! https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~xubuntu-dev/xubuntu-default-settings/trunk/revision/65703:07
Unit193Interesting way to check for it, but you'll want $@ here I think.03:08
bluesabreseems like either should be safe, but I'll swap that in03:10
Unit193$1 only passes the first arg.03:10
bluesabrenumlockx only takes one arg03:10

Unit193That's freaking annoying.03:14
Unit193Can we get rid of that03:14
Unit193I honestly don't care what you interpret as 'that' either, the dep or package will do.03:15
bluesabreYeah03:16
bluesabrethe package is useful, so guess I'll be submitting a MP soon03:17
Unit193Thanks.03:17
Unit193Because gnome-session-quit, the reason for the dep, likely won't do crap in Xfce, LXDE, MATE, etc...03:17
Unit193I seem to remember someone asking me how one quits the Xfce session, thought it was Brian even...03:18

bluesabreotherwise, I think we're good10:56
Unit193bluesabre: I helped debug an issue I found with an upstream.  Turns out if one uses --disable-silent-rules, something "breaks".  That's an odd one.10:58

bluesabrethanks ochosi11:04
ochosiif you wanna add your opinion to the default shortcuts for tiling, that'd be awesome11:07
bluesabreAdded a comment already11:07
bluesabreI like the idea11:07
ochosiwe can also push that after FF11:07
ochosiit's fairly straightforward11:08
bluesabreFF was last night, so anything at this point is after FF :)11:08
ochosiyeah, just saying :)11:08
ochosiit's not really a feature11:08
bluesabreAgreed11:08
bluesabreDoesn't require FFe11:08
ochosithere's one more small thing wrt to thunar uca that i would like to propose11:10
ochosicurrently "open terminal here" only works on directories11:10
ochosiwhen not using the icon view, but one of the two list views, it's a little hard getting a terminal open in the current directory (with the mouse at least)11:11
ochosiso enabling it on files too would solve that11:11
ochosiwould simply open the terminal in the folder where the file is located11:11
ochosiso no string change or anything necessary, just a tiny amendment of the thunar uca11:11
ochosi(can also propose a MR for that)11:12
bluesabreThat sounds handy11:12
ochosivery easy fix11:13
ochosii can also push it straight if we all agree11:13
ochosiit's just adding four lines to the uca.xml.in (matching on all files)11:13
bluesabreDo it11:14
* ochosi does it11:14
flocculantdon't do it11:18
flocculant:p11:18
ochosi:D11:18
* ochosi waits patiently11:18
ochosiactually i just noticed that the behavior changes slightly...11:20
ochosicurrently if you click "open terminal here" on a directory it opens it *inside* that directory11:21
ochosiwith my change, it opens the terminal in the parent directory11:21
ochosiwhich may not be what the user wants :/11:21
ochosi(because you have to change exo-open --working-directory %f to %d)11:21
ochosionly alternative would be to create a second "open terminal here" custom action for files and show the two selectively in the correct context11:22
ochosihmpf11:22
ochosicould be noted in the description of the custom action that one is for files and one is for directories...11:22
ochosithoughts..?11:22
flocculantwell - I'd say if I told it to open terminal in Desktop - that's where I'd want it - are you saying the change doesn't do that?11:23
ochosi(the workaround described above with two actions works fine btw, already tested it. they only show up in mutually exclusive contexts, so it always works and the user only notices that there are two when going to the "Configure custom actions..." dialog)11:23
ochosiif you are in e.g. detail view in thunar and right-click a directory (e..g desktop) then currently it'll open the terminal there (~/Desktop)11:24
flocculantright11:24
ochosiwith the simple patch that behavior would change to opening just ~ instead11:24
ochosi"~" being the parent of the right-clicked folder11:25
flocculantI see11:25
ochosithat's probably not desirable11:25
ochosiand a change in behavior11:25
flocculantI assumed as much just checking - I'd say that's not desirable11:25
ochosibut we can enable "Open terminal here..." on files too with a second, almost identical custom action11:25
flocculantyup understand that11:26
ochosiwhich shows up only on files and uses %d (directory of selected path) instead of %f (full path incl. filename)11:26
ochosi(sorry, that was all very verbose now :))11:26
flocculantha ha 11:26
flocculantI'd guess that if users don't generally see that - it'd be ok. eg it just works11:27
flocculantI'd see something in custom actions pretty quick :D11:27
ochosiyeah, only users playing with custom actions would notice11:28
ochosiand even then it's not a problem11:28
flocculantyup11:28
ochosiwe can explain it in the description11:28
flocculantyea11:28
ochosiso i guess i'll push that instead :p11:28
flocculant:)11:28
flocculantme has 2 open as root options11:28
knomepleia2, the frontpage looks okay to me :P11:29
ochosiflocculant: hehe, nice11:30
ochosinative speakers: is this an ok string? "Open terminal in the folder of the selected file"11:32
ochosi(just fyi, i'm on my private xfce hackathon today - took a day off from work)11:33
flocculantoh yea 11:33
flocculantI wasn't expecting to be home - but Southern England and 'some' snow :|11:33
flocculant3 hours and more to do 16 miles yesterday so I didn't bother today ;)11:33
flocculantthat string is ok - bit long winded11:34
flocculantis all11:34
flocculantyou could s/in the/at selected file's folder11:35
ochosiyeah, that's nicer indeed11:36
Unit193"Open terminal in containing directory" :>11:37
flocculantyea - that sounds better Unit193 11:38
knomeyes, folder is a physical thing too :P11:38

ochosioh12:08
ochosiin that case12:08

ochosithat's an unfortunate difference, doesn't seem to work for xfwm4 afaict12:09

Unit193ochosi: I'll go with sure, but I'll note that the last call isn't guarded.22:27
ochosiwhat which where?22:28
ochosi(sry, i'm somewhere else currently)22:28
ochosiwanna comment inline again so i can take a look a little later?22:28
ochosi(or alternatively be more verbose in here so i have an easier time following up)22:28
Unit193Oh sure, the lpr calls don't check for the command, though one might argue that anyone wanting to print but without cups is a bit on their own.22:39
Unit193(Also -x $(command -v foo) is a bit redundant as command already checks that.)22:57
