lubot[telegram] <HMollerCl> Hi, I was playing with WSL2 and found that ubuntu (server?) is installable in WSL2 and that you could "remote desktop" into it if a desktop and xrdp was installed. Tutorials recommended xfce so I try lxqt. I installed lubuntu-desktop and xrdp, it worked but it didn't had all the customization we made. Any ideas what could be missing?11:48
lubot[telegram] <kc2bez> You might need to make it a task sel so sudo apt install lubuntu-desktop^13:12
lubot[telegram] <HMollerCl> I installed lubuntu-desktop14:02
lubot[telegram] <HMollerCl> but our settings (theme, icons, .desktop overrides) are gone.14:03
lubot[telegram] <HMollerCl> even de lxqt-panel.conf14:04
lubot[telegram] <HMollerCl> I believe that since the user already existed before lubuntu-desktop installation, it didn't got the default settings14:04
lubot[telegram] <HMollerCl> this is what I have 14:05
lubot[telegram] <HMollerCl> $ apt list lubuntu-*14:05
lubot[telegram] <HMollerCl> Listing... Done14:05
lubot[telegram] <HMollerCl> lubuntu-artwork/focal,now 20.04.3 all [installed,automatic]14:05
lubot[telegram] <HMollerCl> lubuntu-default-settings/focal,now 20.04.4 all [installed]14:05
lubot[telegram] <HMollerCl> lubuntu-desktop/focal,now 20.04.8 amd64 [installed]14:05

lubot[telegram] <HMollerCl> here is how https://www.nextofwindows.com/how-to-enable-wsl2-ubuntu-gui-and-use-rdp-to-remote14:11
lubot[telegram] <kc2bez> Right. the ^ at the end is a task sel. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Tasksel14:11
lubot[telegram] <HMollerCl> thanks, will look into it14:17
lubot[telegram] <Leokolb> @HMollerCl Very interesting - keep us posted with your progress.. (re @HMollerCl: Hi, I was playing with WSL2 and found that ubuntu (server?) is installable in WSL2 and that you could "remote desktop" into it if a desktop and xrdp was installed. Tutorials recommended xfce so I try lxqt. I installed lubuntu-desktop and xrdp, it worked but it didn't had all the customization we made. Any ideas what could be missing?)14:26
wxlKGIII: here's the bugs document https://phab.lubuntu.me/w/bugs/19:09
wxli guess it could be split into reporting/testing but c'est la vie19:09
KGIIIThanks. Reading...19:09
wxlsince i hear you're good with fancy arrows, if you want to try fully triaging a bug, taking a screenshot, and then marking it up with the numbers described, that would be cool. might be a good exercise to make all the text make sense19:10
wxlas ben franklin said: Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn19:11
wxl(apparently that was on the inside of jill biden's coat yesterday)19:11
KGIIII don't see how to 'subscribe' to the Lubuntu Package Team - only 'join' appears as an option.19:16
wxlderp yeah i guess that might be it19:16
KGIIIThe last proposed member was in 2019. They are still proposed. So, joining doesn't appear to be a reasonable option.19:17
wxloh i can fix that19:18
wxllet me know when you've applied (just in case i for some reason don't get notification)19:19
KGIIII just hit the apply button. This will let me see the bug process more clearly, correct?19:19
wxlwell every time a new bug comes in against a package in the lubuntu packageset, you'll get a notification19:20
KGIIIYeah, that'll help. That's a good idea, I can then see the process and follow it to see how it all works. Thanks.19:20
wxlno problem!19:21
wxlthank YOU19:21
KGIIII like learning new stuff. If it helps me help the project, even better.19:21
wxlwell there's plenty more to learn where that came from XD19:24
wxlto some degree, ^ this is me sort of nudging you in a direction i'd like to see more help in, but i defer to you. if there's an area you have greater interest in, let me know and i'll give you all i got19:24
KGIIII'm gonna read through bugs for a while. Lemme get a better understanding. This could take a bit. I'll be doing things like trying to recreate some of them and looking at the whole process, so I'd suggest patience.19:26
wxllike i said, no commitment or requirements needed. i'm here if and when you need it 19:27
lubot[telegram] <teward001> wxl: i sent you a PM go read :P19:28
lubot[telegram] <teward001> UNRELATED: I'm very glad I started shifting us to a different S3 - we hit 30k requests to AWS fast on Discourse o.O19:28
lubot[telegram] <teward001> i miiiiiight ahve to coordinate with Canonical sysadmin to get us on a CDN...19:28
wxlum no pm found @teward00119:30
lubot[telegram] <teward001> i sent it to your matrix one because that's where you logged on first19:30
lubot[telegram] <teward001> stdby19:30
wxlah one sec19:30
lubot[telegram] <teward001> PM'd to your normal IRC19:31
KGIIIwxl: You don't recreate all the bugs personally, do you? You just kinda set their importance level and make sure the right package maintainers know?19:55
wxlKGIII: i always do. if i can't recreate them, it means there's either a poor description, some sort of annoying race condition, or it's just not a bug at all19:56
KGIIIAh, okay. I wasn't sure from the comments. 19:57
wxlwell19:57
wxllet me rephrase19:57
wxli don't always recreate them19:57
wxlif it's not clear what i need to do to recreate them, then i won't19:57
wxland some are hardware specific so i can't19:58
KGIIII get it. This is also opening my eyes about making good bug reports for future reference.19:58
wxland also if i've got good reporters like chris, i might simply ask for info rather than doing it all myself19:58
wxlbut even then, i will recreate it19:58
KGIIIYeah, I can see why that'd take you a ton of time.19:59
wxladmittedly i always have a vm ready so20:00
wxlyou can get a sense of my approach to things with my response here https://discourse.lubuntu.me/t/pcmanfm-qt-unable-to-move-files-to-folder/2088/1220:01
wxli'm a bit meticulous, but that's what needs to happen20:01
KGIIII've been following that thread since day one, actually.20:01
wxli'm hunting down some way of trying to figure it out right now20:02
KGIIIIn my 20.04 VM, I can easily move files to folders with nary a problem. So, I'm no help.20:12
wxli know20:13
KGIIIWhy do some bugs have nothing happen to them? For example, there's this one: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/hplip/+bug/1884584 -- it's six months old and still 'new' and hasn't had anything happen to it that I can see.20:30
ubot93Launchpad bug 1884584 in hplip (Ubuntu) "Envy 5030 Printer unable to be setup via hplip Lubuntu 20.04" [Undecided, New]20:30
wxlapparently because the hplip bug triagers are not very busy20:32
wxli can't do much about it without the hardware20:32
lubot[telegram] <lynorian> I am not sure on that one I don't know if we need someone else with that particualar hardware to try to confirm it as it might be a hardware bug a lot of devs won't have every printer imaginable either20:32
KGIIIThat makes sense for that one. Thanks. I'm still going through the bugs and reading to see what happens to them.20:34
wxlin general my philosophy is to punt non-lubuntu-specific bugs (i.e. things that we develop like lubuntu-artwork or lubuntu-default-settings or things not specific to the desktop environment or installer)20:34
wxland it's absolutely the case that there's almost nothing that can be done about hardware specific issues :(20:35
KGIIIThat makes sense.20:36
KGIIIOh, nice! I just discovered the gear icon lets me add more columns (info) and I can sort by age.20:39
wxloh yeah yep20:41
wxland there's a more advanced search too20:41
KGIIIYeah, there's a ton of choices in there. I'm still figuring out what the buttons do - those that I should be pushing, at any rate. 20:42

KGIIIwxl *always* seems to have the biggest list. (Thanks, by the way.)21:14
wxlit's probably just the way i write it all out XD21:14
wxli mean if you listed every test you did, you'd win :)21:14
guivercthank you wxl, steady, reliable & around...21:14
wxlone other thing i'll mention21:14
lubot[telegram] <Leokolb> yeah tks wxl21:15
wxlthe lubuntu council has started discussing getting elections going for that21:15

kc2bezguiverc: over to you21:16
guivercme, not a lot.   usual support (thanks also to wxl, kgiii & others I see there) but I've spent less time I fear than usual.  minor testing; largely https://discourse.lubuntu.me/t/exploration-of-lp-1864787-sfdisk-force-append-dev-sda/2074/5 as requested  .. not re-created but I'll re-try with btrfs when I can  (bug that can be ignored anyway for now)21:16

kc2bezThanks guiverc21:17
kc2bezI don't have too much.21:17
lubot[telegram] <Leokolb> thanks guiverc21:17
kc2bezI reviewed https://phab.lubuntu.me/D10421:17
-lugito:#lubuntu-devel- [Needs Revision] New upstream version.: https://phab.lubuntu.me/D10421:17
wxli agree with your assertion on that guiverc. and you HAVE been helping on support so no worries21:17
wxlOH DUH i reviewed that too!21:17
kc2bezYup, you missed one :P21:18
wxl(which ultimately led to the late night mental machinations with regards to minimum version numbers XD)21:18
kc2bezI sent a couple of tweets out, reminding folks of the artwork contest and one about the non-English support options.21:18
kc2bezI've got a start on Minimal install. https://phab.lubuntu.me/T5821:19
-lugito:#lubuntu-devel- [Medium, Open] consider minimal install: https://phab.lubuntu.me/T5821:19
kc2bezAs I mentioned my TODO has Council elections.21:20
kc2bezThat is it, I think.21:20
wxloh yeah that's good stuff (minimal)21:20
kc2bezI think I can make it happen.21:20
guivercthank you kc2bez , you're also always around, steady, reliable worker always ready to help.. thank you21:20
wxli wouldn't sweat the list right now. let21:20
wxls get something implemented first21:21
wxlthanks a ton for your always help dan!21:21
lubot[telegram] <Leokolb> tks dan ..21:21
kc2beznp, happy to do what I can.21:21
kc2bezAnyone else, anything else?21:21
* KGIII raises hand21:22
KGIIIWhy are some things duplicated? - additional drivers, full upgrade, software sources, alternatives config, etc... It'd be sleaker to get rid of those - and the non-functional 'hibernate' option.21:22
wxlthere's more than one explanation for that21:22
kc2bezWhy do things show in multiple categories? 21:22
wxlbut i will say one thing about hibernate: i don't think we can exactly remove it since it does work for some people.21:23
KGIIIThey're in the menu twice.21:23
kc2bezThat is based on the desktop file for the application.21:23
wxlthere shouldn't be a separate alt config. is there?21:23
kc2bezSome desktop files have multiple categories.21:24
KGIIIAnd? That seems needless from a UI perspective.21:24
lynorianalso I wonder what is going on with picom and the settings in compton-conf21:24
wxlKGIII: i guess what i'd say is we need to look at each one individually21:24
KGIIISoftware Sources does the same thing no matter where you start it from.21:24
wxllynorian: there's a task for that but it hasn't been dealt with yet21:24
KGIIILOL I planned on mentioning the picom/compton thing as well.21:24
wxlmaybe if i'd stop worrying about getting custom discourse emojis i could fix that XD21:25
kc2bezLenny is cute21:25
wxlKGIII: i will say that it's important to consider the xdg/freedesktop specification here because we are bound by it to some degree21:25
KGIIIYou mentioned reading that. Link me to it sometime this week?21:26
wxland also there's the fact that the lxqt implementation isn't always perfect, which is why the "install system" option exists in the men even though it doesn't have all the lubuntu stuff in it21:26
wxl1s21:26
KGIIISpeaking of Lenny, is it possible to buy the winner of the art contest a mug and have it shipped directly to them?21:27
KGIIII'll buy 'em a mug. I ain't scared.21:27
KGIIIBut only if I don't have to screw around with remailing it.21:27
lynorianthat could lead to someone needing to give out their address and they may not want that21:27
kc2bezBlue Devil is one of the dupes. Here are the Categories from the desktop file Categories=Qt;KDE;X-Bluetooth;Network;System;21:27
KGIIIYeah, they may not. But they might want a mug!21:28
KGIIIMaybe we can organize it in time for the next art contest. It's just a few bucks. It's probably too late to do it this time and we could make it optional for contestants in the next one.21:29
kc2bezShipping things is sort of hard, we probably could give them credit in the merch store though.21:29
KGIIIWe can make it something to consider in the next contest. I'm willing to fund it. It makes more sense to do that than to change in the middle of the contest anyhow.21:31
kc2bezSure, that makes sense. 21:33
KGIIII'll put it in my text document for Lubuntu stuff and remind you before the next art contest begins.21:34
kc2bezPerfect. I need reminders XD21:35
RyuKurisu[m]Usually there's a standup meeting on Thursday? ๐Ÿค”21:35
RyuKurisu[m]Anyway if I've read it correctly you can have a separate picom configuration file, at least with 8.0 and up.  As long as they've done everything outlined in the development documentation. 21:35
KGIIIConsider it done. I'll remember.21:35
* guiverc needs reminders too21:35
kc2bezYes, we try to meet on Thursdays RyuKurisu[m] We can add you to the call out list if you want.21:36
kc2bezWe don't have to though. You can always just drop by too.21:37
wxlsorry got called away by real life21:39
RyuKurisu[m]That's my preference because I don't have much time to join meetings, I'm glad if I've got some time to tinker with Linux/Lubuntu 21:40
wxli like KGIII's idea of a gift for the winner. and i agree with @kc2bez about a credit. someone want to pose that to the lubuntu council (lubuntu-council@lists.ubuntu.com) and we can vote on it?21:40
KGIIIwxl: Is it this: https://specifications.freedesktop.org/21:41
kc2bezSounds good RyuKurisu[m] If you have something to bring up you can always drop it to one of us that are usually around.21:41
RyuKurisu[m]<wxl "sorry got called away by real li"> No problem, usually I read back the meeting and was curious now that it wasn't here ๐Ÿ˜…21:41
wxl@KGIII: yep. this one is relevant here https://specifications.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/latest/21:42
KGIIIwxl: Thanks. I'll go ahead and try to get all of them read, just because. Or at least skimmed...21:42
wxlKGIII: the nice thing about reading those is that basically every desktop environment implements them, so those are essentially the rules that govern how desktop environments are supposed to work21:43
KGIIINice. I expect to learn a great deal. I've got more free time to work with now.21:43
RyuKurisu[m]<kc2bez "Sounds good RyuKurisu If you hav"> I've decided to friendly decline the developer's wish to keep the XScreenSaver image unaltered.21:46
RyuKurisu[m]Or do you have that stored that away somewhere else wxl ?21:47
wxlRyuKurisu[m]: to change the flaming display image you have to recompile. so that means making a change to the xscreensaver package that would affect anyone using it, including but not limited to lubuntu. i doubt you'd get much support for that from ubuntu developers. 21:48
wxl(let alone debian ones)21:48
wxlwe can change a lot of things through settings, as we already have done with a bunch of things in xscreensaver. that's just not one of them21:49
RyuKurisu[m]Ugh, why is it compiled in instead of a separate image?  Couldn't he enforce the same limitations to a separate file as something merged?21:55
RyuKurisu[m]But I'm going to guess it *isn't as secure* as the current solution? ๐Ÿ˜”21:55
wxlyou'd have to ask him21:55
RyuKurisu[m]BTW about that colour palette; I haven't given it much thought yet, but we are pretty close to the Nord colour palette: https://www.nordtheme.com/#palettes-modularity21:59
wxlto my eyes that seems a bit dark22:00
wxlrelative to what we have used, i mean22:00
wxlnot that it's bad22:00
RyuKurisu[m]<wxl "you'd have to ask him"> You think he is willing to discuss technical merits over something he's very keen to have unaltered? ๐Ÿ˜‚22:01
wxli think it's quite possible22:01
wxldepending on your approach22:01
RyuKurisu[m]<wxl "to my eyes that seems a bit dark"> There are 15 different Nord colour palettes: https://www.nordtheme.com/docs/colors-and-palettes22:03
wxlneat22:04
RyuKurisu[m]<wxl "depending on your approach"> First of all I don't know how to get in contact with the developer, secondly I don't think I have enough time to find out, and lastly I think I'll be too blunt ๐Ÿ˜”22:06
wxlhttps://www.jwz.org/about.html22:07
RyuKurisu[m]<wxl "neat"> Maybe I would be an idea to adhere to any of those colour palettes?22:07
wxlerr https://www.jwz.org/contact.html22:07
wxlRyuKurisu[m]: i'm not against it. i'd say make a proposal with some screenshots (or at least a mockup of some kind)22:07
RyuKurisu[m]<wxl "RyuKurisu: i'm not against it. i"> Will do that.  I could make a VM to play with for anyone interested? 22:09
RyuKurisu[m]Anyone, I'm off to bed ๐Ÿ˜ด22:10
wxlif you like, sure22:10
wxlbut i think pics will do fine22:10

wxlWHOA23:12
wxli didn't even know this existed https://github.com/lxqt/lxqt-panel/pull/128223:12
ubot93Pull 1282 in lxqt/lxqt-panel "[WIP] kbindicator: Add basic support for country flags" [Merged]23:12
wxl^ N0um3n0 you'll want to know about this23:12
wxlif you add the kbindicator widget to the panel, install iso-flags-svg, and then edit the "flags path pattern" value of the widget to /usr/share/iso-flags-svg/country-4x3/%1.svg you will get flags instead of country names!23:13
lubot[telegram] <kc2bez> Wow! Merged, nice.23:13
lubot[telegram] <lynorian> do we ship the kbindicator widget in the panel23:13
wxlwe should make that a default i think23:13
lubot[telegram] <kc2bez> We don't currently. (re @lynorian: do we ship the kbindicator widget in the panel)23:13
lubot[telegram] <kc2bez> Many distros have the status indicator, (C, N, S or whatever) but most do not ship the language flag. I can see it being well received.23:15
wxli think both would be nice personally but that's my 2ยข23:16
lubot[telegram] <lynorian> it also is not in list of applets to be added  to the panel so II did noot know it existed23:17
wxlthis is why we need more developers who are not native english speakers/writers23:17
lubot[telegram] <kc2bez> I think they are nice but they do eat up some panel real estate.23:17
wxlif we had one good one it would be heaven sent23:17
wxlpersonally i think the flags are a minimum. we used to ship in lxde afaik23:17
lubot[telegram] <kc2bez> I'm language poor I am afraid. I can read and get the general sense of spanish sometimes but I struggle.23:19
wxli can understand it pretty well but it doesn't mean i really undestand it23:20
wxllike what it's like to have to deal with a world of english23:20
lubot[telegram] <lynorian> I think the main point is to see the keyboard layout easier23:20
wxland keyboards that don't deal well with the characters i need to use23:20
lubot[telegram] <kc2bez> That totally makes sense. I am good with the change. (re @lynorian: I think the main point is to see the keyboard layout easier)23:21
wxlme too23:21
wxli'll make a task23:21
lubot[telegram] <kc2bez> maybe we should link it on the upstream things to watch for too23:22
wxlso dumb question but are there binaries available for download with ci? am i blind?23:28
lubot[telegram] <kc2bez> Yes. In the PPA.23:28
wxloh ok23:28
wxli was looking at the web interface itself23:28
lubot[telegram] <kc2bez> right23:34

lubot[telegram] <HMollerCl> Hi! (re @lubuntu_bot: (irc) <wxl> this is why we need more developers who are not native english speakers/writers)23:41
lubot[telegram] <HMollerCl> You were refering to non native English speaker??? ๐Ÿ˜‚ (re @kc2bez: I think they are nice but they do eat up some panel real estate.)23:41
wxl@HMollerCl oh hi! if only you weren't busy :''''(23:41
lubot[telegram] <HMollerCl> Yup23:42
wxlman i love scaled mode in vbox23:49
wxlhttps://share.riseup.net/#DZDRT-exe6XgwNwaDgzJlw23:51
kc2bezNice! That is pretty,  Awesome too  XD23:53
wxlhey they don't call it awesome for nothing XD23:53
wxlbut i just love the little vbox window hiding there, it fills me with joy XD23:54
wxlever try to do video feedback with remote desktop solutions? that's fun, too. 23:55
kc2bezFor sure23:55
wxlguiverc: not sure you saw but this is a bug not a support issue. so should we remove from the unanswered support requests? https://askubuntu.com/questions/1309787/why-keyboard-layout-switch-keys-dont-work-correctly-for-the-specific-english-pe23:59
