wxl(also not a serious gamer)00:00
lubot<HMollerCl> Anyway, I will try to test00:01
lubot<HMollerCl> @TheWendyPower you could tell me how to set the default themes to give you time for the other things I can make (or would do it uglier than hell)00:02
lubot<HMollerCl> *can't00:02
lubot<TheWendyPower> @HMollerCl [@TheWendyPower you could tell me how to set the default themes to give you time …], I honestly do not know yet. I'm still learning myself! I'll find out and share, as it is another thing on the list to be learned.00:04
lubot<HMollerCl> @TheWendyPower [I honestly do not know yet. I'm still learning myself! I'll find out and share, …], Tell me how did you do the clock in sddm and I will find my way00:07
wxli'll show you her commit00:07
wxlhttps://phab.lubuntu.me/rARTbcfc86174cec88d9444bd9804ab7a4083c5a50fe00:08
lubot<TheWendyPower> The clock was editing the main.qml file for the Lubuntu sddm theme. Then it was submitted (with help, as it was my first commit). ... Setting the default themes, that is a new mountain to climb. 😉00:10
lubot<TheWendyPower> I'm sure there is a config file that needs to edited, just not sure which one (yet).00:12
lubot<kc2bez> @wxl [<wxl> we can set QuickExec but then EVERY app will automatically execute and tha …], @wxl could you turn this on in the live environment and then turn it back off after install? Still kludgy but maybe functional. I will dig on the issues page a bit to see if anyone else has submitted something.00:13
wxl@kc2bez yeah just trying to avoid the cludge. i'll make the change last minute if i have to00:17
lubot<kc2bez> gotcha00:18
lubot<HMollerCl> @wxl [<wxl> https://phab.lubuntu.me/rARTbcfc86174cec88d9444bd9804ab7a4083c5a50fe], Where is the code to pull from?00:22
wxl@HMollerCl look at the top and you'll see Diffusion > Lubuntu Artowrk > bcfc86174cec .. click on Lubuntu Artwork to see the code base.00:25
Wafficushey wxl, did you try looking in Calamares.src.modules.welcome.WelcomePage.ui?00:47
Wafficusthis looks like this might be the about section that greets the user first, maybe we could stick a radio button for the minimal installation here?00:48
wxlWafficus: honestly i haven't looked at it much more than in a cursory way00:48
Wafficusgotcha, that's my research so far for today00:48
wxlkeep up the good work!00:48
WafficusI was doing some deep dives, and couldn't find anything in the interactive directory00:49
Wafficusi think though what we're looking for are .ui files00:49
wxl 🌟 00:49
Wafficusthat is, if it really is a matter of adding a radio button that is00:49
wxli think that's probably true00:49
Wafficus*interactiveterminal directory that is00:49
wxlexcept i'm not sure it's actually the welcome 00:49
Wafficusgotcha00:49
wxlit might be easier just to ask #calamares00:50
wxlthey'll probably be like "oh it's right here"00:50
WafficusI tried earlier today during work00:50
Wafficusi'll try again briefly00:50
wxlit's best to just idle there00:50
wxlerrand time00:51
lubot<HMollerCl> mmm, ?ḿ not sure the files I need to change are there. There are the themes, but I can't find teh files whic decide which will be teh default. Example, GTK3 override are stored in ./config/lxqt/lxqt-config-appearance.conf and  ./config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini which is created by lxqt-config-appearance.00:52
lubot<HMollerCl> @wxl ^00:56
lubot<tsimonq2> Right, so we need to figure out how to either set that in the XDG settings or have lxqt-session check for it. Both are doable.00:58
Wafficusquestion, so how do I do commits back to github if I've never created a repository?01:01
Wafficusfor it *01:01
Wafficuslike I have a "lubuntu" directory with some of my reserach notes to look for .ui files for that issue regarding radio buttons01:02
Wafficusis this a "commit" command?01:02
lubot<HMollerCl> @tsimonq2 [Right, so we need to figure out how to either set that in the XDG settings or ha …], will have to do further investigation01:08
lubot<TheWendyPower> @HMollerCl [mmm, ?ḿ not sure the files I need to change are there. There are the themes, but …], Ya, the section I edited was just for the Lubuntu sddm theme. I'll look too.01:15
lubot<TheWendyPower> @Wafficus [<Wafficus> question, so how do I do commits back to github if I've never created …], That is something I've never done also. I guess first step is making sure your profile is all set up on github.01:22
lubot<HMollerCl> @TheWendyPower @wxl I could easily add the blue border to the arc theme here, I don't know if that is the way or changing it upstream or what.01:39
lubot<HMollerCl> searching for lxqt-config-apperance I found this picture. Apparently a SDDM Configuration exist in Configuration Center, I don't have it (maybe becasue I do autologin??)  https://github.com/lxqt/lxqt-config/blob/master/lxqt-config.png01:51
lubot<HMollerCl> @TheWendyPower @wxl ^01:52
Wafficusquestion, so if I'm doing "research" for the one bug, would I fork off that in the github repository?01:57
Wafficusor would I keep making notes as cases in the launchpad case?01:57
Wafficusor the phab site that is01:57
Wafficusgonna just add a comment in that particular bug01:59

wxl@HMollerCl i'm not sure upstream would accept it, but we can certainly make our own thing, just as we have the Lubuntu Arc theme which is our variant of Arc02:37
wxlalso @HMollerCl that lxqt-config.png looks oddly like KDE, which means i bet it's using KWin. that might add some other modules in, maybe?02:39
wxlOH02:41
wxlnevermind02:41
wxlit's sddm-config-editor02:41
wxlwhich you'll see listed here https://phab.lubuntu.me/w/lubuntu_2/02:42
wxltl;dr it's packaged for debian but we're waiting for them to pick it up02:42
wxlit's actually pretty solid. i've tried it out and it seems good02:43

lubot<kc2bez> @wxl Am I on the right path with this? https://github.com/lxqt/libfm-qt/pull/24202:46
lubot<aalpanigrahi> Hello 😬😬 to everyone. I am really interested in contributing to Lubuntu , though I am not an expert coder. Is there some point from where I can learn how to contribute for Lubuntu.02:49
wxl@kc2bez great work! let me dig a little further into this02:58
lubot<kc2bez> Awesome! happy to be useful.02:58
wxl@aalpanigrahi welcome! there is certainly a place for you here! at minimum you can help with testing, filing bug reports, and triaging bug reports02:58
wxl@aalpanigrahi most of the work we're doing doesn't involve a lot of coding. the heavy lifting is done upstream. some little tweaks here and there is mostly what we do. if you know *anything* about code you can probably help out, especially if you're willing to learn02:59
lubot<aalpanigrahi> Thank you. So where can I start @lubuntu_bot ?03:01
wxl@aalpanigrahi here's some of the stuff we're working on for the next release https://phab.lubuntu.me/T53 and here's some of the stuff we're planning on for the release after, but wouldn't mind having in the next release https://phab.lubuntu.me/w/lubuntu_2/03:02
-lugito:#lubuntu-devel- [Unbreak Now!, Open] Must haves for 18.10 release: https://phab.lubuntu.me/T5303:02
lubot<aalpanigrahi> Cool , I will join right away.03:03
wxl@aalpanigrahi btw @lubuntu_bot is just a bridge to our IRC channel. you can mention the nick that comes after it (wxl in my case) if you want to get someone's attention on irc 03:03
wxl@aalpanigrahi here's some info on testing https://phab.lubuntu.me/w/testing/03:03
wxl@allpanigrahi bugs are discussed there, too03:03
wxlping if you have questions! and THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!03:03
lubot<TheWendyPower> @HMollerCl I think the blue border on the active window looks great. Let's leave the inactive window with just the gray border (no change). You could share the finished tweaks on your launchpad or github, if you wanted to.  ... I will have to look and see if I can find that SDDM config in the configuration center. I couldn't fin13:31
lubotd on before (that could have been me and not that lack of one), so I used the KDE configurations as I was trying to figure out what was wrong with the default SDDM. I don't auto login and it wasn't there for me. Like I said that could have been me!  ... I need to get out the door, but this may have the location of the default theme files in it. I'l13:31
lubotl read through it myself some more when I have a bit of downtime during the day. Hopefully, between the two of us, we can get that found. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Environment_variables13:31
lubot<TheWendyPower> @wxl do you ever sleep?13:32
wxl@TheWendyPower i just woke up so yes :)13:51
lubot<HMollerCl> @TheWendyPower thanks! I will read that and made the blue border only for active. @wxl Should we create a new theme or just modify the existing LubuntuArc?  ... Regarding SDDM-config, as per @wxl comment and link (https://phab.lubuntu.me/w/lubuntu_2/) sddm-config-editr will be added in 19.0414:17
wxl@HMollerCl if you mean the Lubuntu Arc in Openbox config, that's ours, so have at it14:19
wxlalso re: sddm-config-editor, i *COULD* put it in a PPA14:19
wxlyou back in action today @tsimonq2 ?14:28
lubot<tsimonq2> @wxl [<wxl> you back in action today @tsimonq2 ?], Not today, I'll probably be in bed after school.14:29
wxlokie dokie :(14:29
wxlomg what magic is this? i just added a ppa with `add-apt-repository` and it automatically updated14:32
wxlman these devs are really on it14:32
lubot<tsimonq2> @wxl [<wxl> man these devs are really on it], juliank did that right after being hired by Foundations last cycle.14:32
lubot<tsimonq2> He also reworked MoM and did a bunch of other really useful things.14:33
lubot<tsimonq2> Go buy him a tea :)14:33
wxl:)14:33
lubot<HMollerCl> @wxl question, I cloned lubuntu-artwork make the changes then git add -A and git commit. Where should I make the git push to?14:57
lubot<HMollerCl> I mean, I don't know how to do teh branch thing15:00
wxl@HMollerCl to be clear which repo did you clone?15:01
lubot<HMollerCl> https://git.launchpad.net/~usd-import-team/ubuntu/+source/lubuntu-artwork15:02
wxlusd-import-team..... weird15:02
lubot<HMollerCl> that's the one it shows when the green buton "Clone" is pressed in https://phab.lubuntu.me/source/lubuntu-artwork-archive/repository/ubuntu%252Fdevel/15:03
wxlwell you can push it to somethere in your own account e.g. ~youruser/lubuntu-artwork15:03
wxloh15:03
wxlthat's the problem15:04
wxlyou're using the archive one15:04
wxlyou want https://phab.lubuntu.me/source/lubuntu-artwork/15:04
wxl@tsimonq2: ^ maybe we should make the archive mirrors non public?15:04
wxlif you cloned the right mirror on phabricator, you can just use arcanist15:05
wxlhttps://phab.lubuntu.me/w/packaging-tutorial/15:05
wxlyou can even ignore all the packaging stuff there and just do git clone; (make changes); arc diff15:05
wxland we'll fix up the rest for you15:05
wxlbut extra bonus points if you do the packaging. it's fairly trivial15:05
lubot<HMollerCl> ok, and when I push it to my account, how/when did you know to merge them? (I remember the things I did in teh kernel where not pushed to my account)15:06
wxllaunchpad has a similar, albeit more annoying process as differential, called a merge proposal15:07
wxlnot unlike the pull request of github, though, it requires a web interface, which i loathe15:07
wxlmore better to do it all on phabricator :)15:07
lubot<HMollerCl> ok, done. I hope people like the blue border.15:21
wxldone where to be clear?15:21
lubot<HMollerCl> https://code.launchpad.net/~hmollercl/lubuntu-artwork/+git/lubuntu-artwork15:22
wxldid you click the "propose for merging" button?15:23
lubot<HMollerCl> nope15:23
wxldo that15:23
lubot<HMollerCl> I'm looking where it is15:23
wxland it should lead you through what to do after that15:23
lubot<HMollerCl> Target branch: ??15:24
wxlubuntu/cosmic15:24
lubot<HMollerCl> ok, now it's done15:26
wxlgood job :)15:26
wxlnext time, phabricator. way easier15:27
lubot<HMollerCl> BTW, I found the problem I had with featherpad in which changes were not persistent. ~/.config/featherpad/fp.conf owner was root. In latest daily I didn't had the problem15:30
