| lubot | <The_LoudSpeaker> The version of quassel we ship by default is messed up. | 01:40 |
|---|---|---|
| lubot | <The_LoudSpeaker> Can't connect to quassel-core | 01:41 |
| lubot | <The_LoudSpeaker> Can only directly connect to irc network. There's no option of connecting to a core. | 01:41 |
| lubot | <The_LoudSpeaker> We get a welcome dialogue box which takes details and connects to irc networks only. | 01:42 |
| lubot | <The_LoudSpeaker> But I actually ran it from a persistent usb. The usb is a bit slow. That dialogue box opened a bit late than quassel opened. Now, before opening of that dialogue box, there was an option to connect to a quassel-core. It disappeared the moment the welcome screen appeared. | 01:44 |
| lubot | <The_LoudSpeaker> Someone verify. | 01:44 |
| lubot | <The_LoudSpeaker> If we are shipping an irc client, I suggest hexchat. Quassel which cannot connect to a core is just useless. The user will have to install quassel-client separately. Seems redundant. | 01:45 |
| lubot | <The_LoudSpeaker> @kc2bez uses quassel. Can confirm imo. | 01:46 |
| lubot | <The_LoudSpeaker> Just Installed hexchat to compare usage. Hexchat is clearly lighter than quassel. | 02:02 |
| lubot | <The_LoudSpeaker> Connected yo same network, same user same channel #lubuntu | 02:03 |
| lubot | <The_LoudSpeaker> Minimised. | 02:03 |
| lubot | <The_LoudSpeaker> Hexchat 9MB | 02:03 |
| lubot | <The_LoudSpeaker> Quassel 23MB | 02:03 |
| lubot | <The_LoudSpeaker> Telling from qps. | 02:03 |
| lubot | <The_LoudSpeaker> @tsimonq2 wxl: what say? | 02:04 |
| lubot | <teward001> hexchat is not Qt driven | 02:04 |
| lubot | <teward001> Quassel is last i checked | 02:04 |
| lubot | <teward001> and that's heavier. | 02:04 |
| lubot | <The_LoudSpeaker> 🤷🏻♂️ | 02:04 |
| lubot | <The_LoudSpeaker> Even tho hexchat isn't qt driven. It's lighter. Also, the quassel core issue I pointed. | 02:05 |
| lubot | <The_LoudSpeaker> And don't know why, in the quassel we ship, the default network, named "Lubuntu IRC" tries to connect to ubuntu servers buy on port 8001. | 02:06 |
| lubot | <The_LoudSpeaker> It should be 6697/6667 na? | 02:06 |
| guiverc | I've tested the default many times (ISO QA-testing) & connected fine to #lubuntu; usually pm myself on this box; so it works (I have no idea about port) | 02:07 |
| lubot | <The_LoudSpeaker> Didn't connect on 8001 on my system coz sophos I assume but default is 6667 only right? | 02:09 |
| lubot | <The_LoudSpeaker> Idea: to make it super lite, we give an executable which points to kiwirc in browser. It's not fully capable as compared to a client but does the job and uses already installed good ol Firefox. What say? | 02:11 |
| lubot | <The_LoudSpeaker> It's bit of a strech but hey! Less resources used. | 02:15 |
| kc2bez | The_LoudSpeaker: I use quassel. I uninstall the monolithic application and install quassel-client. I have a separate Ubuntu server that just runs quassel-core. Here is the quassel wiki page to get you started: https://bugs.quassel-irc.org/projects/quassel-irc/wiki | 13:21 |
| lubot | <The_LoudSpeaker> @kc2bez [<kc2bez> The_LoudSpeaker: I use quassel. I uninstall the monolithic application …], I also use quassel only. Can't connect to my quassel core using the default client that we ship. Wanted you to confirm if you can. | 17:17 |
| kc2bez | No, you can't connect to a core with the client we ship, quassel client is a separate package. | 17:21 |
| lubot | <The_LoudSpeaker> @kc2bez [<kc2bez> No, you can't connect to a core with the client we ship, quassel client …], We should ship the combined core-client that quassel provides or not ship it at all imo. | 17:45 |
| lubot | <The_LoudSpeaker> Honestly hexchat is better than what we ship currently and it's light also. | 17:46 |
| kc2bez | The client we ship works without the core, it is all together as one. | 17:47 |
| lubot | <The_LoudSpeaker> Hexchat is lighter. | 17:48 |
| kc2bez | ok | 17:49 |
| lubot | <The_LoudSpeaker> @kc2bez [<kc2bez> The client we ship works without the core, it is all together as one.], Even if its all together one, it's tweaked to not connect to other core. We should remove that tweak atleast. | 17:53 |
| kc2bez | It isn't tweaked, they are 2 separate applications for 2 different purposes. It is all explained on the quassel wiki page. | 18:13 |
| kc2bez | As far as an alternative IRC client that is lighter it would be best if it was a qt application. | 18:14 |
| lubot | <The_LoudSpeaker> @kc2bez [<kc2bez> It isn't tweaked, they are 2 separate applications for 2 different purp …], I see. I will have to take a look. | 18:21 |
| lubot | <The_LoudSpeaker> @kc2bez [<kc2bez> As far as an alternative IRC client that is lighter it would be best if …], H | 18:22 |
| lubot | <The_LoudSpeaker> @kc2bez [<kc2bez> As far as an alternative IRC client that is lighter it would be best if …], Hexchat can be ported? | 18:22 |
