| b0id[m] | Ovenwerks, send me info on dev workflow or docs related on contributions. | 00:59 |
|---|---|---|
| Eickmeyer[m] | b0id: OvenWerks is mostly focused on Studio Controls, the source for which is at https://github.com/ovenwerks/studio-controls, but I think he's drumming up something new which may or may not be Ubuntu Studio-related. | 01:14 |
| OvenWerks | b0id[m]: That question confuses me. Like I have missed the first half of the conversation. | 18:58 |
| OvenWerks | Eickmeyer: which tool kit did you use for uninstaller? | 18:59 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | OvenWerks: kdialog | 18:59 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | And zenity for the progress indicator | 18:59 |
| OvenWerks | Eickmeyer: I was wondering if it maade sense to combine installer into it. Installer does not deal well with hidpi screens | 19:00 |
| OvenWerks | but it sounds like it is written in bash? | 19:01 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | I've been considering a rewrite of installer into kdialog or zenity for a while since it really doesn't need that much. Really zenity would be best as it can monitor progress a whole lot better than kdialog. | 19:02 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | Kdialog is just easier for initial dialogs. Right now I'm working on a rewrite for edubuntu. | 19:02 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | Trying to use zenity alone. | 19:02 |
| OvenWerks | basically, tk/tcl or fltk seem to suffer from not dealling with DE font sizing. | 19:03 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | Either toolkit would be so much better on HighDPI. | 19:04 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | Right, that was part of my initial concern a while back, but we kicked that can down the road. | 19:04 |
| OvenWerks | Not pyqt? | 19:04 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | PyQt would work, but I know Kdialog because I know Bash scripting best. | 19:05 |
| OvenWerks | :) | 19:05 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | Also, I'm thinking about GTK desktops, which still outnumber Qt desktops in the Ubuntu flavor world. | 19:06 |
| OvenWerks | I am assuming you want to stay away from gtk/glade | 19:06 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | Well, studio-controls still uses gtk/glade, right? | 19:07 |
| OvenWerks | gtk/glade would probably be easiest because we have some experience | 19:07 |
| OvenWerks | yes | 19:07 |
| OvenWerks | I think ouyr menueditor was glade as well | 19:08 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | So, I have no problem with that, especially because it still blends with the desktop and works well with non-Qt desktops. | 19:08 |
| OvenWerks | If we want a starting point the menu editor would be the better of the two. Controls is based on someone elses start and is not really cleaned up | 19:09 |
| OvenWerks | menu edit was from a frsh start. | 19:09 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | Whatever you think is best if you want to lead the charge on this. | 19:11 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | How's the progress on controls? | 19:12 |
| OvenWerks | Eickmeyer[m]: I will be working on a songbook like app at some point but I have gotten something working via waydroid for now. | 19:13 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | Cool! | 19:13 |
| OvenWerks | controls needs work. mostly autojack. I did some work on it but am going to have pull some of it out I think. I was trying to combine pw and jack in the same calls and it looks like I am better to just add a bunch of if pw skip kinds of thing and do pw separate... better for my mental health | 19:15 |
| OvenWerks | PW has mostly all it's own calls for everything we need anyway. | 19:16 |
| OvenWerks | At some point I may have to change everything jack to jackd instead of jackdbus unless I start jackdbus manually instead of with dbus calls. When started with dbus calls, jackdbus sometimes uses pw jack libs which is a mess. | 19:18 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | I see. Well, if it's any help, the file/symlink is pipewire-jack.conf in /etc/ld.so.conf.d like you recommended. Without that, pw-jack is disabled. | 19:21 |
| OvenWerks | that is the same mechanism I am using. | 19:21 |
| OvenWerks | It is for cases where jack is used as a pw devicde. | 19:23 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | Right, I followed your lead so that we're keeping the same file. | 19:23 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | I'm modifying /usr/sbin/ubuntustudio-pwjack-config so that it can not only set the default buffersize, but also enable/disable which basically deletes or creates that symlink on demand. Obviously it will require a reboot after the ldconfig is run, but it will tell the user. | 19:24 |
| OvenWerks | gotta run... I'm the driver. | 19:24 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | Ah, have fun. | 19:26 |
| OvenWerks | When I can, I will push what I have to github so I can pull to this machine. So I can work on it when my wife is home. She prefers my presence in the same room :) | 19:27 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | So does mine. LUL | 19:27 |
| OvenWerks | Part of the reason we got this machine | 19:27 |
