| bluesabre | TJ-: lots of people have requested including https://github.com/hanschen/ksuperkey for better keyboard integration, that might do the trick | 09:18 |
|---|---|---|
| TJ- | bluesabre: thanks; it turned out the keyboard model selected was turning the "win" key into "multi_key" | 09:19 |
| bluesabre | TJ-: If I enter Super+Space and then type a letter, it appears... so there might be a running app that has claimed it | 09:19 |
| bluesabre | aha | 09:19 |
| TJ- | bluesabre: the problem being, in "dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration" there is no bloody way to know what a keyboard model name either looks like, or the keycodes it generates! This is on an Asus T300CHI so originally I selected, quite obvisouly, "Asus Laptop" - der, WRONG! switched it to Generic PC101 and it now generate L_Super | 09:21 |
| bluesabre | oh wow | 09:21 |
| bluesabre | I also have an Asus laptop, glad I didn't look around in there :) | 09:21 |
| TJ- | so now I can Super_Space and get unicode emojis by typing their common-names :) | 09:21 |
| TJ- | Using https://github.com/salty-horse/ibus-uniemoji | 09:22 |
| bluesabre | neat | 09:22 |
| TJ- | it's very useful... Super+Space "soccer" => ⚽ | 09:23 |
| bluesabre | That's pretty awesome actually | 09:23 |
| TJ- | indeed, saves faffing about trying to look-up unicodes in hex | 09:23 |
| bluesabre | maybe we can get some more folks in the team *cough* knome *cough* to go for color emojis | 09:23 |
| TJ- | 👨❤💻 <== was "man" "heart" "computer" | 09:24 |
| TJ- | bluesabre: ha! when you said "color" I thought I was generating colour and just couldn't see it due to the terminal :) | 09:25 |
| Unit193 | bluesabre: He's the one you've got a chance to win over at least. | 09:26 |
| bluesabre | Unit193: :D | 09:26 |
| bluesabre | TJ-: `sudo apt install fonts-noto-color-emoji` and you should have color emojis in your terminal too, if you want them | 09:26 |
| TJ- | bluesabre: I have powerline fonts not sure if they extend that one; I'll check | 09:27 |
| TJ- | doesn't look like it | 09:29 |
| TJ- | 🏓 thanks bluesabre - it works though not sure I need it :) | 09:44 |
| bluesabre | :) | 09:44 |
| TJ- | bluesabre: now if they'd only fix this DPMS off issue...!!! | 09:45 |
| TJ- | I may be able to see them :D | 09:45 |
| jphilips | hi all, how to report problems with the xubuntu website | 09:49 |
| === jphilips is now known as jphilipz | ||
| bluesabre | jphilipz: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xubuntu-website/+filebug | 09:53 |
| jphilipz | bluesabre: thanks | 09:59 |
| jphilipz | are all xfce components in 18.04 gtk2? | 10:13 |
| jphilipz | want to test xfce gtk2 vs gtk3 and wonder which xubuntu release would have it | 10:13 |
| brainwash | jphilipz: what is there to test? | 10:22 |
| jphilipz | brainwash: functionality/behaviour of the old vs new | 10:22 |
| guiverc | jphilipz, Xfce 4.12 (early 2015) started the move from gtk2 to gtk3 so for an all gtk2 xfce it'd have to be before 2015 (thus EOL). | 10:26 |
| jphilipz | guiverc: i checked and 4.12 first got release with xubuntu 15.04, so from what you are saying the 4.12 with xubuntu 18.04 isnt all gtk2 | 10:27 |
| guiverc | Nope; 17.10 introduced some new gtk+3 features that prior releases had, 18.04 refined & added more (note: I'm not a dev, only a user) . 16.04 should have more but 18.04 is too late in my opinion if you wanted mostly gtk2 | 10:30 |

| guiverc | jphilipz, fyi: Xubuntu 16.04 is EOL (3 years as a flavor); sorry I forgot.. | 10:38 |
| jphilipz | guiverc: even if EOL its just for testing purposes :D | 10:40 |
| jphilipz | seems 16.10 also had some gtk3 bits - https://xubuntu.org/news/xubuntu-16-10-release | 10:41 |
| M_aD | i'd take it to the support channel instead of chatting about it in the dev channel. | 11:00 |
| guiverc | sorry M_aD, I wrongly thought this was #xubuntu | 11:04 |
| M_aD | :) | 11:48 |
| jphilipz | an older bug i reported was set from incomplete to expired and i've just added additional info to it, so how to get its status changed from expired? | 18:38 |
