sappheiroswxl: regarding the lubuntu manual y'all say, "The master branch of this data is now on LXQt for Lubuntu 18.10+ and if you want code for earlier versions it is on the LXDE branch." but there is both 18.04 and LXDE -- i'm not sure which is to be used and it seems redundant to me01:29
sappheirosi mean, one seems good to delete in favor of the other, and i'm guessing 18.04 should be the one going forward, so i'm perplexed01:29
* sappheiros is also still learning how to use the phab system01:29
sappheirosthey seem identical at a glance01:30
lynorian18.04 and LXDE are idenitcal01:35
lynorianfor the manual01:35
lynoriansappheiros: ^01:35
sappheiroslynorian: why are there two -- oh. you mean LXDE and 18.04 are different phab projects, but the manuals are synced?01:37
sappheirosthat is, the 18.04 manual is mirrored on LXDE in case people want to edit there?01:38
lynoriandang sapheiros left01:42
sappheirosis the 18.04 manual mirrored on LXDE in case people want to edit there?01:45
sappheirosthank you for confirming the 18.04/LXDE manual branches are identical. it's not yet clear to me whether one is a mirror of the other or what the reason is for two identical phab directories01:49
lynoriansappheiros: I named it LXDE before 18.04 as a way I tried to get multiple versions working but that ended up being pretty much broken 01:50
lynorianteward: been to busy to set up read the docs any?^01:50
tewardlynorian: still not sure how to get it fully working with the dev envs.02:23
tewardi HAD spun it up but it's really unclear on things02:23
lynorianteward: dang02:23
tewardit's not clear on getting documentation 'environments' set up unfortunately02:24
tewardso it's been a lower priority02:24
lynorianunderstood02:24
tewardwhat with other things like the cala vulns02:24

lubot<The_LoudSpeaker> Anyone with a 4k display? I don't have so can't check. But I wanted to see how the wallpaper stretches on it. Would have to be a uefi system.03:41
lubot<lynorian> @The_LoudSpeaker I don't own one wither03:41
lubot<The_LoudSpeaker> But I do have a 42" LCD at my home. Gonna try on it when I get there. XD03:43

lubot<The_LoudSpeaker> @wxl [<wxl> it's like they're hardcoded], I quoted same sentence earlier. You didn't believe me. XD … But keeping it to desktopswitch2 works in my case.05:58
lubot<The_LoudSpeaker> Can someone please check the files I added to https://phab.lubuntu.me/T59#1327  ? … Just copy them to local config places (i.e. under ~.config/) … And restart the system. Please check if "Super+Fx" takes you to desktop "x"  … It will clear doubts if desktopswitch2 works only on my vm.06:05

lubot<HMollerCl> is there a method we could ask palinke for a new release of nm-tray? (And after that package it in debian) currenlty there is 0.4.2 from oct 18 (there where 3 in 2018 and 3 in 2017) and does not has our icon fix.15:39
lubot<HMollerCl> https://github.com/palinek/nm-tray/releases15:40
apt-ghettoYou can open a new issue and ask him directly.15:42
lubot<HMollerCl> ok, just wanted to know if there was another method. Thanks!15:47
apt-ghettoMaybe there is, but I think it makes sense to open a new issue. So also other will have this information15:48
wxl@The_LoudSpeaker: maybe try this and hand edit the patch to make it work right16:58
lubot<The_LoudSpeaker> @wxl [<wxl> @The_LoudSpeaker: maybe try this and hand edit the patch to make it work r …], Try what?17:01
wxlthe patch17:01
wxlif desktopswitch2 does not work for me, chances are it won't work for someone else17:02
wxlit's not going to be an acceptable solution17:02
lubot<The_LoudSpeaker> Ummm. I am a bit confused. By "patch" you mean using desktopswitch2 ?17:04
lubot<The_LoudSpeaker> @wxl [<wxl> if desktopswitch2 does not work for me, chances are it won't work for some …], Yup! There is a good chance of that.17:05
wxlthe patch is part of your differential17:05
wxlyou'll notice the raw file isn't in there, but a patch17:05
wxl!patch17:05
ubot93Patches are files describing the changes in code to achieve some results.  There are a number of ways these can be produced, but https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/HowToFix and http://developer.ubuntu.com/packaging/html/patches-to-packages.html may provide some useful guidelines.17:05

lubot<The_LoudSpeaker> I mean till the pull request gets accepted?18:32
lubot<The_LoudSpeaker> Also, anything about lubuntu-grub-theme wxl: ?18:33
lubot<HMollerCl> @The_LoudSpeaker [So we wait till then?], you could download, patch, compile and test.18:34
lubot<The_LoudSpeaker> @HMollerCl [you could download, patch, compile and test.], Instructions ploxx18:34
lubot<HMollerCl> I'm not 100% sure but, you could clone here https://github.com/lxqt/lxqt-globalkeys/tree/xdg_configs18:36
lubot<HMollerCl> that shoudl have the patch applied18:37
lubot<HMollerCl> the README.md has the installation instruction18:37
lubot<HMollerCl> then, before laucnhing it ypu should stop the one that comes with the distribution18:39
lubot<The_LoudSpeaker> Okay. I will try it now.18:39
wxl@The_LoudSpeaker re: grub theme what changed?19:17
lubot<The_LoudSpeaker> @wxl [<wxl> @The_LoudSpeaker re: grub theme what changed?], Background strech added. Should do better on BIOS systems now.19:20
wxloh ok19:20
lubot<The_LoudSpeaker> Which repo will it get added to? Like rLUBUNTUDEFAULTSETTINGS or rLUBUNTUGRUBYHEME or anything else?19:25
wxlgood question. @tsimonq2 do you know where our grub theme would end up going? i presume somewhere on debian-cdimage?19:27
lubot<The_LoudSpeaker> @HMollerCl [then, before laucnhing it ypu should stop the one that comes with the distributi …], I clobed repo and checked out the branch with commit. I will build it and install tomorrow. Meanwhile can you tell me how do I go about separating the version of lxqt-globalkeys that came with distro from the version which will19:32
lubot be built from the patch ?19:32
wxljust don't install the one you compile19:33

wxli.e. we won't be using arc19:34
lubot<The_LoudSpeaker> @wxl [<wxl> i.e. we won't be using arc], Then what will we use? Just git?19:35
wxlworse19:35
wxlbzr19:35
lubot<The_LoudSpeaker> Thought so, when you said worse.19:35
lubot<tsimonq2> @wxl [<wxl> bzr], SVN? XD19:35

wxlright19:36
wxlthere's worse19:36
lubot<tsimonq2> CVS?19:36
lubot<tsimonq2> Btrfs snapshots on CentOS 5?19:36
wxl@The_LoudSpeaker GRUB still looks cramped on VBox19:48
lubot<HMollerCl> palinek answered regarding a new release for nm-tray. He said he didn't had one scheduled but he could do one. I think is better to have one instead of pacthing it on our side. Any other thoughts wxl @tsimonq2 ? https://github.com/palinek/nm-tray/issues/41#issuecomment-50976140920:03
wxlit never hurts to have a new release especially if he has no plans!20:04
wxl@HMollerCl @kc2bez @aptghetto would ya'll be so kind as to test that aforementioned pull request for lxqt-globalkeys to respect XDG variables?20:10
wxlcan someone explain to me why debian takes SO LONG to install?20:14
lubot<kc2bez> @wxl [<wxl> @HMollerCl @kc2bez @aptghetto would ya'll be so kind as to test that afore …], I will try to get to it tonight.20:23
wxlwhoa20:25
wxlTIL you can just add `.patch` to the URI of a pull request on github and there's the patch20:26
wxlugh i really can't get this to patch cleanly on our current code20:34
lubot<HMollerCl> what are you trying to do?20:35
lubot<HMollerCl> to patch in our repo?20:35
wxlthe lxqt-globalkeys20:35
wxli'll just apply to the upstream code i guess20:35
lubot<HMollerCl> can't you clone the branch?20:36
wxlyeah but since the patch will ultimately be applied to our codebase..20:36
lubot<HMollerCl> agaida proposed time for nm-tray release, I think it's ok but wxl and @tsimonq2 could you please post your thoughts? https://github.com/palinek/nm-tray/issues/4120:37
lubot<HMollerCl> @wxl [<wxl> yeah but since the patch will ultimately be applied to our codebase..], unless they do a release before20:37
lubot<aptghetto> @wxl [<wxl> @HMollerCl @kc2bez @aptghetto would ya'll be so kind as to test that afore …], Is there a test plan? Or does everyone test this and that and say good or not20:38
lubot<aptghetto> @wxl [<wxl> the lxqt-globalkeys], Are you using the ci/unstable branch?20:39
wxl@aptghetto basically put a config file in /etc/xdg/xdg-Lubuntu/lxqt for globalkeys and make sure it reads it20:40
wxland.. no20:40
lubot<aptghetto> You could apply the patch from the PR to the ci/unstable branch, push, wait until jenkins and brittney did their work and test the deb package in a vm ü20:45
