| kb9vqf | formatting is cleaner/easier to read |
| kb9vqf | And best of all, tbottu shouldn't drop off the channel every week like before :) |
| tbottu | 10mutantturkey@gmail.com changed the Component on bug 69 from system to ubuntu. |
| tbottu | 04Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=69 normal, P5, ---, kb9vqf, UNCONFIRMED, Jaunty AMD64 LiveCD Boot Failure |
| MutantTurkey | nice it works. |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: so we are all set for the whole bugwatch right? |
| kb9vqf | I believe so... |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: lets hope i can clone this then... |
| MutantTurkey | I rebooted my connection, still seems to cut out pretty fast |
| kb9vqf | There are a lot of files there |
| kb9vqf | I have noticed similar behaviour on my cell phone link as well |
| MutantTurkey | hmmm it seemed that if i do ctrl+z (i forget what that does, freeze the program in midair i think) and then do fg it will start working agian. |
| kb9vqf | (granted not with git, but just with normal downloads) |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: yes, this is my cell connection :P |
| MutantTurkey | could i just download the raw files? |
| MutantTurkey | clone onto my server, then wget the files :P |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: your connection also seems slow |
| kb9vqf | I don't know if that will work |
| MutantTurkey | i'll try it nonetheless. |
| kb9vqf | would it be easier to send over the files you want uploaded in a tar file and I will commit them? |
| MutantTurkey | lets see if this works then do that. |
| kb9vqf | my connection may very well be slow :-P |
| MutantTurkey | this is working so far. |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: okay this is not going to work |
| MutantTurkey | I will tar it up. |
| MutantTurkey | I do not have a way to email you however. |
| MutantTurkey | can I pm you a link to my website of the tarball? |
| kb9vqf | yews |
| kb9vqf | *yes |
| MutantTurkey | actually no idea how i can do that D: |
| kb9vqf | well, it can wait I suppose |
| MutantTurkey | because I am tethered i don't know my ip hrm hold up |
| kb9vqf | when will you be on a better connection? |
| MutantTurkey | tuesday |
| kb9vqf | it can wait until then I would think :) |
| MutantTurkey | ok :{ |
| MutantTurkey | actually i'll see what i can do |
| kb9vqf | it's up to you |
| MutantTurkey | no go. |
| MutantTurkey | I don't have any way to upload it. |
| kb9vqf | It's OK |
| kb9vqf | don't waste your time |
| kb9vqf | I'll see you on Tuesday :) |
| MutantTurkey | wait i think i have it |
| MutantTurkey | nevermind again. |
| kb9vqf | Like I said don't waste your time |
| kb9vqf | Here's an idea |
| kb9vqf | Do you think we could prioritize the bugs by difficulty? |
| kb9vqf | I know the difficulty isn't set in stone, but simple malfunctions could probably be fixed first |
| kb9vqf | (apparently simple that is) |
| kb9vqf | if you want to go through the bugtracker and start making an Etherpad list of simple bugs I would appreciate it |
| MutantTurkey | hmmm wait we can another boolean reight? |
| MutantTurkey | i'll see what i can do |
| kb9vqf | well I was just thinking a separate list on the Etherpad |
| MutantTurkey | okay. |
| MutantTurkey | we started that stuff |
| kb9vqf | ordered by estimated difficulty, simplest ones on top |
| MutantTurkey | okay. |
| kb9vqf | I know and then it disappeared :( |
| kb9vqf | But then again I remember it being pretty badly incomplete... |
| MutantTurkey | i was starting a small list on the etherpad |
| kb9vqf | I'll just say for the record that the first Etherpad installation was a test |
| kb9vqf | I never expected it to be as good a tool as it was |
| kb9vqf | so I wasn't very careful with it |
| MutantTurkey | it really is |
| MutantTurkey | okay i got my friend to email me the thing |
| MutantTurkey | so i am shooting it to you |
| kb9vqf | ok, thanks |
| MutantTurkey | titled thingy |
| MutantTurkey | my friend didn't understand it at all |
| kb9vqf | got it |
| kb9vqf | I'll throw it up on GIT |
| MutantTurkey | great thanks |
| MutantTurkey | as of right now i think it fails |
| kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: That's OK; before you work on it more please check it out from GIT and keep updating it in GIT as you fix it :) |
| kb9vqf | Also, about the arch/master/src directory |
| kb9vqf | why are there tarballs in there? |
| MutantTurkey | no idea what that is... |
| MutantTurkey | oh |
| kb9vqf | can I just delete it? |
| MutantTurkey | sure |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| MutantTurkey | okay, going to look through bugs. |
| kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Uploaded |
| kb9vqf | want the link? |
| MutantTurkey | got it |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | great |
| MutantTurkey | easy bugs... hrm |
| MutantTurkey | can't seem to find any hah |
| MutantTurkey | so is the etherpad good to go for usage? |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | it is stable |
| MutantTurkey | passwords and such are the same? |
| kb9vqf | and will be subject to scheduled backup now |
| kb9vqf | I sent new invitations to you and Xu_R |
| kb9vqf | oh wait, you don't have Email :-P |
| MutantTurkey | yeah :P |
| kb9vqf | hmmm |
| kb9vqf | I don't know how to force it |
| MutantTurkey | i might be able to do it on my phone |
| *** SyncMaster has quit IRC |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: are easy bugs also enhancements? |
| MutantTurkey | there are some ones i see that are probably pretty simple |
| *** kb9vqf has quit IRC |
| tbottu | 10mutantturkey@gmail.com changed the Component on bug 411 from kdelibs to ubuntu. |
| tbottu | 04Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=411 major, P5, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, kdelibs4c2a-trinity "provides" missing to kdelibs4c2a |
| tbottu | 10mutantturkey@gmail.com changed the Component on bug 376 from system to ubuntu. |
| tbottu | 04Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=376 major, P5, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, Unable to install 10.10 over 9.04 |
| *** kb9vqf has joined #trinity-desktop |
| kb9vqf | sorry, webirc froze up on me again |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: i don't really see that many "easy easy" ones |
| MutantTurkey | no kvirc? |
| kb9vqf | if an enhancement is easy then feel free to add it |
| kb9vqf | maybe the enhancements should be on a separate list |
| MutantTurkey | yes |
| kb9vqf | with that list being ordered as well from easy to hard |
| MutantTurkey | also i think i am going to mark some more important |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | maybe another list ordered by importance |
| kb9vqf | bugzilla can do that |
| MutantTurkey | i think some of those ubuntu are pretty critical |
| kb9vqf | so fix the priority fields I guess :) |
| MutantTurkey | yeah |
| kb9vqf | I think all of the bugs are set to medium priority ATM |
| kb9vqf | kvirc is in Trinity |
| kb9vqf | must be an old bug |
| MutantTurkey | no i meant, why are you using the webchat? |

| kb9vqf | YES! |
| kb9vqf | As luck would have it the utility put us on the top of the list for restoration |
| kb9vqf | (or pretty near it) |
| kb9vqf | over 800,000 perople still are without power |
| kb9vqf | *people |
| kb9vqf | Xu_R|ZNC: Power's back way ahead of schedule |
| kb9vqf | There is still a chance that portions of the electric grid could fail as power is restored to other customers AFAIK |

| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: having more connectivity issues? |
| MutantTurkey | also anon.kde.org sucks. |
| kb9vqf | Internet here is absolutely horrid |
| kb9vqf | I got a helpful call from my ISP yesterday letting me know that they will be doing "major" maintinance in a few hours |
| kb9vqf | "helpful" /sarcasm |
| kb9vqf | Seems ol' Murphy is out to get me |
| kb9vqf | My hunch is that their network was severely damaged yesterday by the storms |
| kb9vqf | given that their call was about 6 hours later....we had registered 80MPH sustained(!) winds during the derecho event |
| kb9vqf | Utility company called it "blitzkreig" :-P |
| kb9vqf | *blitzkreig rather |
| kb9vqf | We will need to get some kind of load balancing in place at some point in the future if this type of stuff becomes common place |
| kb9vqf | Illinois is hurting for money as a whole and I suspect that some of the bad economy is eating into the utilities' preventative maintenance budgets |
| MutantTurkey | there have been a whole array of storms lately |
| MutantTurkey | still, doesn't give an excuse in my book for poor service. |
| kb9vqf | you should see the pictures... |
| kb9vqf | hang on, I'll put one on Imagebin :) |
| MutantTurkey | I always give the "we are actually doing everything we can" not "we are doing everything we can/ |
| MutantTurkey | at my job, as meanial as working as a 711 clerk... I seriously try to provided maximum service and take into account the entire store at once. |
| MutantTurkey | so when companies tell me "they are doing everything they can" while i am watching their maintenance crews are sitting outside my sev eating and carrying on for a good part of the hour on thier clock... |
| MutantTurkey | anyway. I digress. I am entirely fed up with my lousy service. my router has not shown up yet. |
| kb9vqf | hehe |
| kb9vqf | one sec while I get the link... |
| kb9vqf | well, at my speeds right now, maybe more like a minute :-P |
| MutantTurkey | i'm rocking off of 3g, so it'll take about a week to download |
| kb9vqf | :-P |
| kb9vqf | after the storms my camera and I went around documenting the damage |
| MutantTurkey | that impressive? huh. |
| MutantTurkey | no household damage i hope. |
| kb9vqf | trees everywhere |
| kb9vqf | yes, some fell on houses |
| kb9vqf | and cars |
| kb9vqf | some of the wires just snapped from the wind alone |
| MutantTurkey | yeah. weirdly enough my neighbor has had 4/5 tree fall in like 3 years. |
| kb9vqf | the corn fields were *flattened* |
| kb9vqf | if my connection were better I'd upload a few pics |
| MutantTurkey | last year it came across the street, onto the wires in front of my house, and as just leaning on the wire. |
| MutantTurkey | they roped it off with caution tape and left it hanging for a few days. |
| kb9vqf | :eek: |
| MutantTurkey | :| |
| * kb9vqf wonders if he sent a 64x64 pixel thumbnail if *that* might make it through :-P |
| kb9vqf | Oh and it's also fun to have the lights flickering all day |
| kb9vqf | probably as portions of the grid are switched back in |
| kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: http://imagebin.org/162840 |
| MutantTurkey | makes sense. |
| kb9vqf | damage in a residential area |
| MutantTurkey | ouch. that's not pretty. |
| kb9vqf | No kidding |
| kb9vqf | I have more pics from elsewhere |
| MutantTurkey | one thing i always wondered (besides the topic) |
| kb9vqf | Try a huge iron Farm&Fleet sign bent to the ground |
| MutantTurkey | is why the H-E-double hocky sticks do all word processors lack tabbing features? it's ridiculous. |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: I am glad i live on the east coast. as i say "it's boring and everything about NJ sucks. but hey, we don't get natural disasters" |
| kb9vqf | except the "Perfect Storm" of '92 |
| kb9vqf | IIRC that hit the entire East coast |
| MutantTurkey | also in like 98 |
| MutantTurkey | mostly our issues are minor flooding but that is about it. |
| kb9vqf | s/1992/1991/g |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| * kb9vqf sometimes gets dates slightly off |
| kb9vqf | This has certainly been a year for extremes |
| MutantTurkey | I am awful enough with dates as is. |
| kb9vqf | The south gets record tornadoes and then broils |
| kb9vqf | Texas is in record drought |
| MutantTurkey | global warming eh? |
| kb9vqf | hehe |
| kb9vqf | Actually this is not all that abnormal |
| MutantTurkey | actually not at all. but more like "the built up 150 years of environmental distruction. |
| kb9vqf | People forget that the weather is an average |
| MutantTurkey | global warming doesn't exist. |
| kb9vqf | right |
| MutantTurkey | but the reasons for katrina, flooding and such |
| MutantTurkey | is all because we destroy our natural barriers. |
| kb9vqf | are statistical likelihoods |
| kb9vqf | take my area for instance |
| kb9vqf | we have not had a tornado for many decades |
| kb9vqf | yet on average we should have one every decade or so |
| kb9vqf | (a big one that is) |
| kb9vqf | so people get complacent and when the statistics finally catch up with them things get ugly |
| kb9vqf | Just my $0.02 ;-) |
| MutantTurkey | oddly, we have had a few in philly in the past few years. |
| MutantTurkey | actually one touched down in my suburb, while i was in middle school. |
| kb9vqf | :eek: |
| kb9vqf | There was one back in the 60s here that completely destroyed a middle school in my general area |
| kb9vqf | They are nothing to mess with |
| kb9vqf | we still have a strict building code as a result |
| MutantTurkey | which is good. |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| MutantTurkey | all buildings in the midwest are brick right? |
| kb9vqf | No, surprisingly |
| MutantTurkey | all of ours are crappy and thrown together with wood and glue. |
| MutantTurkey | really? I've been to more of the missouri area |
| MutantTurkey | mostly brick their |
| kb9vqf | but near major tornado touchdowns they do require reinforced roofs and such |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: in comparison. there are none hear, and only brick ones are the historical ones. |
| kb9vqf | here they are McMansions with brick facades and cheap vinyl siding on the sides and rear |
| kb9vqf | They look REALLY unsafe if a tornado hit :-P |
| MutantTurkey | basically. |
| kb9vqf | nothing like bricks flying through your siding and foam insulation... |
| kb9vqf | anyway I think I am far enough OT for the time being :) |
| kb9vqf | Hopefully my power and ISP connection will stabilise in the next few days |
| kb9vqf | None of us has the resources to be another Google and distribute services over a dedicated fiber line |
| kb9vqf | Same goes for your VPS |
| kb9vqf | if a severe event hit the datacenter you'd be down too ;-) |
| MutantTurkey | what about it? |
| MutantTurkey | except that they have 3 data centers! :D |
| MutantTurkey | (i think at least) |
| kb9vqf | And they are all in sync? |
| MutantTurkey | not sure, I will ask now. |
| kb9vqf | That kind of technology has not been developed yet |
| kb9vqf | it would require insane bandwidth AFAIK |
| MutantTurkey | they have it. |
| MutantTurkey | it's in germany |
| MutantTurkey | I dont know how that is for weather. |
| kb9vqf | I would be very surprised if your VPS has transparent failover between datacenters |
| kb9vqf | Germany is very stable weather-wise |
| kb9vqf | Nothing of interest |
| kb9vqf | the mountains tend to destroy convective structures |
| kb9vqf | While tornadoes are not unheard of there, it is nothing like the Midwest of the United States ;-) |
| kb9vqf | This connection is driving me nuts, so I'll sign off for now |
| kb9vqf | Thanks for the chat |
| MutantTurkey | yep |
| MutantTurkey | I'll be around tomorrow working hours if you want to do more admin related bug work. |
| kb9vqf | ok, sounds good |
| kb9vqf | I just got done tracing more memory corruption in kdesktop |
| kb9vqf | fixes are in SVN |
| MutantTurkey | excellent. |
| kb9vqf | and tbottu isn't dying, even though the connection is horrid :) |
| MutantTurkey | Tomorrow i am going to track down that problem of building on arch, hopefully get that sorted out. |
| kb9vqf | So that is a major improvement |
| kb9vqf | Sounds good |
| kb9vqf | samelian was here not that long ago |
| MutantTurkey | tbottu seems a bit more stable lately. |
| tbottu | MutantTurkey: Error: "seems" is not a valid command. |
| MutantTurkey | :P |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: me and samelian seem to keep missing eachother. |
| kb9vqf | yeah |
| kb9vqf | I can't help too much |
| kb9vqf | (mainly because it works on my systems) |
| MutantTurkey | we need samelian, he understands cmake :) |

| MutantTurkey | I am having trouble making it find the dbus tqt path i think |
| MutantTurkey | I tried adding it to my CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH but it still doesn't see it. |
| samelian | what kind of trouble? |
| MutantTurkey | it gives me the dbus-tqt cannot be found on your system |
| MutantTurkey | but i exported it with export CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH=/opt/qt/include/tqt:/opt/trinity/include/dbus-1.0:/opt/trinity/include/dbus-1.0/dbus:/opt/trinity/include:/opt/trinity/include/libkrandr |

| MutantTurkey | ah |
| samelian | try to replace pkg_search_module( DBUS dbus-1 ) |

| MutantTurkey | where is that? |
| samelian | ConfigureChecks.cmake |
| MutantTurkey | oh in CMrighright |
| MutantTurkey | still errors out |
| MutantTurkey | maybe dbus-tqt-1 |
| samelian | I don't think so, dbus/connection.h is provided by dbus-tqt |
| MutantTurkey | hrm |
| samelian | MutantTurkey: you have pkg_search_module( DBUS dbus-tqt ), of smth else? |
| MutantTurkey | i have dbus-tqt |
| samelian | I see, but the variable is DBUS, or smth else? |
| MutantTurkey | i have that |

| samelian | show me output of cmake as well |
| MutantTurkey | http://ix.io/1Nm |
| samelian | and error log/ |
| MutantTurkey | OK |
| MutantTurkey | http://ix.io/1Nn |
| samelian | hmm |
| samelian | are you sure you have /opt/trinity/include/dbus? |
| MutantTurkey | let me verify |
| MutantTurkey | no not there |
| MutantTurkey | there is |
| samelian | but? |
| MutantTurkey | /opt/trinity/include/dbus-1.0/ |
| samelian | should be in /opt/trinity/include/dbus |
| MutantTurkey | okay i wonder why it is in dbus-1.0 |
| MutantTurkey | it should be in dbus-1.0 |
| MutantTurkey | that is where it installs default |
| MutantTurkey | do you want me to move it? |
| MutantTurkey | either way, i included /opt/trinity/include/dbus-1.0/ |
| samelian | dbus should be installed where .pc file indicate |
| samelian | otherwise can't be found |
| MutantTurkey | samelian: I'll look at the pc file |
| MutantTurkey | isn't the pc file generated? |
| samelian | it is |
| kb9vqf | Good idea MutantTurkey :) |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: yeah. |
| MutantTurkey | samelian: hrm no luck then |
| MutantTurkey | can i regenerate it or something/ |
| samelian | .pc file is based on INCLUDE_INSTALL_DIR |
| MutantTurkey | okay |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: do you know why it would be in "dbus-1.0" instead of dbus? |
| MutantTurkey | samelian: okay |
| MutantTurkey | for tqt |
| kb9vqf | I don't know; I haven't looked at that code in quite a while :-/ |
| samelian | how you installed dbus-tqt? |
| MutantTurkey | samelian: what do you mean? |
| samelian | is installed by make install or somehow manually? |
| MutantTurkey | with my pkgbuild |
| MutantTurkey | its packaged |
| samelian | aha |
| MutantTurkey | my INCLUDE_INSTALL_DIR is /opt/trinity |
| samelian | maybe your package did not respect CMAKE_PREFIX |
| MutantTurkey | ? |
| samelian | ah, I see a problem |
| samelian | install( FILES |
| samelian | dbus-qt.h message.h connection.h server.h |
| samelian | DESTINATION ${INCLUDE_INSTALL_DIR}/dbus-1.0/dbus ) |
| samelian | i'm not sure why is that |
| samelian | kb9vqf: you did not changed DESTINATION? |
| samelian | I don't remember if I changed it |
| kb9vqf | I don't remember either |
| samelian | hehe |
| kb9vqf | all I know is it works here (TM) |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| samelian | ok, I will check it today later |
| kb9vqf | thanks |
| samelian | right now my mind is too fuzzy, there is 7:00 AM at this moment :) |
| kb9vqf | I'm currently in the middle of a rebuild that was interrupted due to Monday's derecho |
| samelian | I can't sleep |
| MutantTurkey | I am up :D |
| MutantTurkey | so I am at this point, just waiting for that file change? |
| MutantTurkey | i'll just do it myself |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: wait should it be ${INCLUDE_INSTALL_DIR}/dbus/? |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: can anyone clone the git? |
| MutantTurkey | anyway actually i am going to sleep. I'll sort this out later. |

| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: hey important |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: on the archlinux developers mailing list |
| MutantTurkey | they are discussing who isgoing to maintain qt3 and kdelibs3 |
| MutantTurkey | i privately emailed the guy earier about qt3 |
| MutantTurkey | but kdelibs3 is a different story |
| MutantTurkey | http://mailman.archlinux.org/pipermail/arch-dev-public/2011-July/020985.html |
| MutantTurkey | are we compat with the old kde3libs? i am not suree how this works |
| MutantTurkey | but, this could be our foot in the door to getting supported officially by a distro |
| MutantTurkey | Xu_R|ZNC: ^ also see this and tell me what you tink |
| kb9vqf | We are NOT compatible with the old kdelibs in terms of the ABI |
| kb9vqf | the API will allow the older KDE3 apps to be compiled against the Trinity kdelibs in theory, but I've never tried it |
| kb9vqf | the fact that we use TQt instead of Qt3 may throw a monkey wrench into that idea |
| MutantTurkey | yeah. |
| ar | kb9vqf: TQt is the wrapper around qt4? |
| MutantTurkey | but qt3 is api compat right? |
| MutantTurkey | ar: yes and qt3 |
| MutantTurkey | against all qt versions |
| kb9vqf | yes, qt3 is compatible |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: because we could be qt3 upstream |
| kb9vqf | that is OK with me |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: so in theory we could compile to the, but not neccesarily? |
| kb9vqf | The goal is to pull all of the disparate Qt3 patches to create a central, up-to-date Qt3 repository that can then be extended as neccessary |
| MutantTurkey | yes |
| kb9vqf | "compile to the"? |
| MutantTurkey | if they recompile (thats probably okay) will it work? |
| MutantTurkey | recompile gaainst new kde3libs |
| kb9vqf | possibly |
| kb9vqf | I can't guarantee it |
| kb9vqf | the reason is that some member names changed in TQt3 |
| kb9vqf | In all likelihood the original Qt3 member names will "bleed through" and the code will compile, but I am not comfortable stating that it *will* work at this point |
| MutantTurkey | ok |
| MutantTurkey | i am recommending they don't use our kdelibs3 |
| MutantTurkey | did you see that link |
| MutantTurkey | ? |
| kb9vqf | looking at it now |
| kb9vqf | can they try it? |
| MutantTurkey | i emailed it |
| MutantTurkey | to you |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| MutantTurkey | my response |
| MutantTurkey | look at it and see if it's okay |
| kb9vqf | I'm just not sure what to do here :) |
| kb9vqf | we're not stable yet |
| kb9vqf | (will be fall before 3.5.13 is released) |
| kb9vqf | Just a couple of nits |
| kb9vqf | 1.) TQt is not Tqt ;-) |
| kb9vqf | 2.) kde3 is not Trinity |
| MutantTurkey | i know. |
| MutantTurkey | thats what i mean |
| kb9vqf | 3.) I would put in a recommendation that they look into switching to the Trinity-provided kdelibs/kdebase/kde* modules |
| kb9vqf | just for the simple fact that they are having build problems now with the old stock KDE3 sources |
| kb9vqf | Just a thought |
| MutantTurkey | so i should recommend that when we release stable, they should just switch? |
| kb9vqf | it won't be as easy as "just switch", primarily due to CMake being used to build arts/kdelibs/kdebase, but yes |
| kb9vqf | it shouldn't be too bad |
| kb9vqf | I changed the Ubuntu build scripts in about a day |
| kb9vqf | (to handle CMake and the tqtinterface deps that is) |
| MutantTurkey | but if i have package builds they can just steam them |
| MutantTurkey | because i would pu the mup for them to steal :0 |
| kb9vqf | ah, ok :) |
| kb9vqf | yes, in that case switching would be easy |
| MutantTurkey | read that |
| MutantTurkey | sent another |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: i think that should be the one i send off, unless there is any other problems? |
| kb9vqf | Looks good |
| kb9vqf | I only have one suggestion |
| MutantTurkey | yes? |
| kb9vqf | The Qt3 repository is actually ready to use, combining all the patches I am aware of |
| MutantTurkey | okay so they should use it? |
| MutantTurkey | what is the link? |
| kb9vqf | I would say yes |
| kb9vqf | http://git.trinitydesktop.org/viewgit/index.php?a=tree&p=Trinity%20Desktop%20Environment&hb=HEAD&f=main/dependencies/qt3 |
| kb9vqf | that's the Webgit |
| kb9vqf | an actual checkout command would be: |
| kb9vqf | git clone http://scm.trinitydesktop.org/scm/git/tde/main/dependencies/qt3 |
| kb9vqf | or there's a handy .tar.gz link on the bottom of the webgit page ;-) |
| kb9vqf | As more patches are applied they will be listed in the changes-3.3.8d file |
| MutantTurkey | ok |
| kb9vqf | If there are any compilation issues they should just poke me here or send an Email to the trinity-devel list |
| kb9vqf | IIRC a compilation test was already run successfully on an non-Ubuntu system by someone on the mailing list |
| kb9vqf | so I'm not expecting any problems |
| MutantTurkey | http://mailman.archlinux.org/pipermail/arch-general/2011-July/020969.html sent |
| MutantTurkey | gottta go drop off paper work at HR |
| kb9vqf | ok, thanks |
| MutantTurkey | i'll stop by later. |
| kb9vqf | sure |
| kb9vqf | hopefully we start getting some downstream distro support now... :) |

| Borg^Queen | hello humans, AIs and others |
| MutantTurkey | blech |
| Borg^Queen | ? |
| MutantTurkey | running around hot downtown filling out paperwork |
| MutantTurkey | very gross |
| Borg^Queen | ugh really, how hot is it? |
| Borg^Queen | its 35c here |
| MutantTurkey | uh i would say about 35c |
| MutantTurkey | which by itself is bearable |
| MutantTurkey | but the humidity |
| MutantTurkey | is terrible. |
| Borg^Queen | the tell is, if you believe the weather monkeys, its going to get up about 38c here today |
| Borg^Queen | I doubt it, since its already cooling off |
| Borg^Queen | I hate humidity, makes for a bad hair day, and mine is very long |

| Borg^Queen | hi kb9vqf |
| kb9vqf | Hello :) |
| Borg^Queen | Got some feed back from my testers yesterday |
| Borg^Queen | "Great job! |
| Borg^Queen | " |
| kb9vqf | :D |
| Borg^Queen | That was pretty much it, they went back to using it |
| kb9vqf | VERY glad to hear that! |
| Borg^Queen | T he only complaints where about in ubuntu in general |
| Borg^Queen | Its a well earned feed back |
| kb9vqf | Yes, Ubuntu is fast becoming a steaming pile of something nasty :-P |
| Borg^Queen | ooh lol |
| kb9vqf | Too unstable, too much API breakage for no reason |
| kb9vqf | Case in point: I do video editing in my spare time |
| kb9vqf | and use IEEE1394 |
| kb9vqf | Guess what Natty did? |
| Borg^Queen | Its called "Replicate Fade" a genetics term, meaning errors resulting from making copies of copies |
| kb9vqf | They moved the /dev/raw1394 device to /dev/fw0....for no reason whatsoever! |
| Borg^Queen | Umm I use fW too |
| Borg^Queen | arrrgh |
| Borg^Queen | seriously? |
| kb9vqf | Let's just say it breaks Kino and other apps |
| kb9vqf | and yes :-P |
| kb9vqf | I am serious |
| Borg^Queen | Well I do my video editing, which is a lot, on Ark linux, which sadly doesn't have TDE yet. But the founding devel is very interested. Come to #arklinux to meet him if you have the time and inclination. |
| kb9vqf | A symbolic link will fix the issue (ln -s /dev/fw0 /dev/raw1394), but you have to do that on every boot |
| kb9vqf | Debian is starting to look more and more attractive |
| kb9vqf | I have Debian boxes that give me no trouble whatsoever |
| Borg^Queen | I was on debian but I wanted a pure kde distro, arklinux was and still is the best distro I've used. I have it so tweaked I can do 80% of my work from konq |
| Borg^Queen | I have video, audio, graphics, file management and more servicemenus |
| kb9vqf | nice |
| Borg^Queen | I've been experimenting with dvd, bluray ripping and converting to mkv |
| Borg^Queen | the cli tools are SO easy |
| kb9vqf | You're lucky you aren't in the USA |
| * kb9vqf wishes he could do that |
| Borg^Queen | I am |
| kb9vqf | BTW can you check the rsync mirror of Trinity for me? |
| Borg^Queen | how |
| kb9vqf | see if you can get a directory list from rsync.trinitydesktop.org |
| kb9vqf | e.g. with rsync rsync://rsync.trinitydesktop.org |
| * kb9vqf is fixing some routing issues |
| Borg^Queen | ok hang on, don't use rsync very often |
| Borg^Queen | rsync: getaddrinfo: rsync.trinitydesktop.org 873: Name or service not known |
| Borg^Queen | rsync error: error in socket IO (code 10) at clientserver.c(122) [receiver=3.0.2] |
| Borg^Queen | kb9vqf: you can add all kinds of multimedia services because you are not a commercial entity |
| * kb9vqf was afraid of that |
| kb9vqf | hang on |
| * kb9vqf mutters something about keeping illegal topics off this channel |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| Borg^Queen | aye |
| kb9vqf | OK, please try the rsync again... |
| Borg^Queen | one moment |
| Borg^Queen | same error |
| Borg^Queen | perhaps I'm getting the command wrong |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | no |
| kb9vqf | I was playing with the routing and messed it up |
| Borg^Queen | give me an exact command |
| Borg^Queen | I did that last night took down my entire network until 10 am this morning |
| kb9vqf | Borg^Queen: OK, try one more time |
| kb9vqf | rsync rsync://rsync.trinitydesktop.org |
| Borg^Queen | same error |
| kb9vqf | ?? |
| kb9vqf | That should have worked |
| kb9vqf | what is the error? |
| Borg^Queen | the way I do it is I open a terminal into the dir where I have the iso, is that wrong? |
| Borg^Queen | rsync: getaddrinfo: rsync.trinitydesktop.org 873: Name or service not known |
| Borg^Queen | rsync error: error in socket IO (code 10) at clientserver.c(122) [receiver=3.0.2] |
| kb9vqf | Sounds like a DNS malfunction |
| kb9vqf | What does ping rsync.trinitydesktop.org show? |
| Borg^Queen | one moment |
| Borg^Queen | ping: unknown host rsync.trinitydesktop.org |
| Borg^Queen | let me test me ping functions |
| Borg^Queen | its working |
| kb9vqf | hmmm |
| kb9vqf | I will have to think for a few minutes |
| Borg^Queen | sorry |
| kb9vqf | Borg^Queen: OK, try again please... |
| Borg^Queen | ok |
| Borg^Queen | same both rsync and ping |
| kb9vqf | rsync still failing? |
| Borg^Queen | is trinity site down? |
| Borg^Queen | yes on rsync and ping as well |
| *** Xu_R|ZNC is now known as Xu_R |
| Borg^Queen | There goes the neihbourhood |
| kb9vqf | Ah, there we go I think |
| Borg^Queen | There goes the neighborhood even |
| Borg^Queen | check? |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | I confused it with two gateways :-P |
| kb9vqf | (accidentally) |
| Borg^Queen | not working |
| Borg^Queen | maybe I'm doing something wrong? |
| kb9vqf | worked on a remote system I have access to |
| kb9vqf | hmmm |
| kb9vqf | post the command? |
| Borg^Queen | ping rsync.trinitydesktop.org & ping rsync.trinitydesktop.org are the commands I'm using |
| kb9vqf | Oh, ping may not work |
| kb9vqf | I was just making sure it resolved the DNS entry |
| kb9vqf | in fact IIRC ping is blocked |
| kb9vqf | what about rsync? |
| Xu_R | shush Borg^Queen. :P |
| Borg^Queen | same error as before |
| kb9vqf | Xu_R: Can you try? |
| Xu_R | kb9vqf: http://forum.mandriva.com/en/viewtopic.php?f=181&t=128274&p=848036#p848036 have you seen this? |
| kb9vqf | rsync rsync://rsync.trinitydesktop.org |
| Borg^Queen | same |
| Xu_R | nope |
| Xu_R | doesn't work here |
| kb9vqf | failing? |
| kb9vqf | hmmm |
| kb9vqf | oh, duh |
| kb9vqf | I gave the wrong URL |
| kb9vqf | sorry |
| * kb9vqf needs more coffee |
| Borg^Queen | >: |
| Xu_R | xD |
| Borg^Queen | lol |
| Borg^Queen | ok brb |
| kb9vqf | rsync rsync://rsync.pearsoncomputing.net |
| MutantTurkey | what's up with rsync? |
| kb9vqf | The mirroring system broke after the IP change |
| Borg^Queen | ok working |
| Xu_R | there we go |
| MutantTurkey | oh D: |
| Xu_R | that works xD |
| Borg^Queen | brb |
| kb9vqf | So the mirrors should sync again...that's good |
| kb9vqf | Xu_R: Can you try another test for me? |
| Xu_R | sure |
| kb9vqf | Try to actually *pull* some files from that rsync server |
| kb9vqf | I need to make sure the bandwidth settings are OK |
| kb9vqf | Let me know when you have initiated the download so I can peer at the charts |
| Xu_R | ok |
| kb9vqf | it's active? |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: sent that email off, still no word back yet no idea why. |
| kb9vqf | give them time :) |
| MutantTurkey | indeed |
| kb9vqf | Xu_R: Not seeing your download traffic yet |
| Xu_R | yea, hold on |
| Xu_R | router's been screwing me up all weekend |
| kb9vqf | oh, ok |
| kb9vqf | I just need a short burst for a minute or so |
| Borg^Queen | ok back |
| Xu_R | got that short burst? |
| kb9vqf | no |
| kb9vqf | I was waiting for a poke |
| kb9vqf | sorry |
| kb9vqf | try again? |
| Xu_R | get anything? |
| Xu_R | because my server is seeing yours and pulling now |
| kb9vqf | yes, I see your traffic |
| kb9vqf | It's in the wrong spot on my end |
| kb9vqf | hang on while I reconfigure something |
| Xu_R | ok |
| Xu_R | stopping and waiting |
| kb9vqf | Xu_R: Try again please |
| Xu_R | starting |
| kb9vqf | OK, much better |
| kb9vqf | everything looks OK now |
| Xu_R | ok |
| kb9vqf | thanks |
| Xu_R | terminating |
| kb9vqf | BTW please don't use that address unless you have a mirror to add to the system |
| Xu_R | kb9vqf: ok. i'm not using it anyway. |
| kb9vqf | When the primary mirrors start pulling that link will swamp very quickly :) |
| Xu_R | xD I figured |
| Xu_R | kb9vqf: so did you see this? http://forum.mandriva.com/en/viewtopic.php?f=181&t=128274&p=848036#p848036 |
| Borg^Queen | I leave the mirrors to the pros |
| kb9vqf | Xu_R: yes I did |
| Borg^Queen | Xu_R: I read it, what about it? |
| kb9vqf | so it looks like there are spec files "out there in the Ether"? |
| kb9vqf | want to pull them and try building Trinity with them? (hint hint) |
| Xu_R | kb9vqf: yea... I want to see what he did |
| Xu_R | except I need to see if that fix can be used to build the latest SVN too. |
| kb9vqf | If they're good clone them to our GIT repo |
| Xu_R | Borg^Queen: that is supposed to allow the old autotools system to build Trinity |
| Xu_R | with newer autoconf versions |
| Borg^Queen | I thought we were going to all cmake |
| Borg^Queen | I hate autotools |
| Xu_R | Borg^Queen: we're not stalled on it anymore, so if you can still use it, it's an advantage to have a fallback |
| Borg^Queen | true, good point |
| Xu_R | I haven't heard from anyone on the July Meeting except kb9vqf... *glare* |
| kb9vqf | Xu_R: I patched Automake as best as I could some time ago |
| kb9vqf | i.e. most things build |
| kb9vqf | arts is NOT one of them |
| kb9vqf | but since we have CMake for Arts I don't really care |
| Borg^Queen | does arts do anything anymore? |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | it's still needed |
| kb9vqf | it does seem quite stable IMHO |
| kb9vqf | I have had no problems with it since 3.5.11 |
| Xu_R | ok |
| Borg^Queen | I never had any problems with it, but everyone says its been replaced |
| Borg^Queen | ? |
| kb9vqf | with what? |
| kb9vqf | pulseaudio? |
| kb9vqf | that *does* give me problems on a near-daily asis |
| kb9vqf | *basis |
| kb9vqf | AFAIK there is no viable replacement for arts |
| Borg^Queen | I never got it to work, and phonon keeps crashing |
| kb9vqf | I think the "arts is dead" stuff is wishful thinking |
| Borg^Queen | A lot of kde4 is wishful thinking, honestly |
| kb9vqf | as in it was replaced under KDE4 with an unstable chunk of new software |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| Borg^Queen | case in point |
| Xu_R | lol |
| Borg^Queen | what lol its true |
| Xu_R | I know |
| MutantTurkey | yes! finally got all my paperwork done with the HR department :) |
| Xu_R | MutantTurkey: :D |
| MutantTurkey | :D :D |
| MutantTurkey | but now i actually have to work D: |
| Borg^Queen | lol |
| Xu_R | hey, kb9vqf: could you give Borg^Queen git access? I want her to help me with packaging for RPM-based distros |
| kb9vqf | sure :) |
| Borg^Queen | I stink at that |
| kb9vqf | Can I have a real name and an Email address? |
| Xu_R | Borg^Queen: even if it's testing...? lol |
| Borg^Queen | Kate Draven / borgqueen4@gmail.com |
| MutantTurkey | SSN and phone number and bank #'s to |
| MutantTurkey | :p |
| kb9vqf | OK |
| kb9vqf | No |
| Xu_R | LOL |
| Borg^Queen | Oh I can test, I can break and complain about anything |
| Borg^Queen | what |
| Xu_R | as you are notorious for doing that ;P |
| Borg^Queen | MutantTurkey: >: |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: is it possible that we could have some sort of developers area for the site? as a portal |
| kb9vqf | Remember we are a desktop project, meaning that we should at least know who is committing what for security reasons |
| Borg^Queen | true |
| Xu_R | kb9vqf: and for good reasons too. |
| MutantTurkey | i mean just like a page that links to all the other ones |
| Borg^Queen | kb9vqf: I' |
| MutantTurkey | because we have cgit, etherpad, etc |
| Borg^Queen | I'm glad you said that |
| Xu_R | speaking of Etherpad, is the July meeting tomorrow? |
| kb9vqf | time out, time out :) |
| kb9vqf | too much text |
| Xu_R | XD |
| Xu_R | brb, my contacts are getting blurry... D: |
| Borg^Queen | gross |
| kb9vqf | yes, a portal would be nice |
| MutantTurkey | and a maybe "phonebook" so to speak |
| kb9vqf | I don't have time to iron out what should be on it |
| kb9vqf | want to thrown up an Etherpad with what you guys want to seee? |
| MutantTurkey | more like a contact page for us devels so other people have emails and such |
| kb9vqf | *see? |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: i can do it |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | then just Email it to me or something |
| kb9vqf | re: the meeting |
| kb9vqf | tomorrow may not be the best time |
| kb9vqf | how about a week from tomorrow? |
| Xu_R | back |
| Xu_R | yes, gross D: |
| Xu_R | kb9vqf: so postpone it a week? ok |
| kb9vqf | yes, please |
| MutantTurkey | http://trinity.etherpad.trinitydesktop.org/7 |
| kb9vqf | OK, Email with account info sent |
| kb9vqf | Borg^Queen: ^^^ |
| Borg^Queen | ah ok thank you |
| kb9vqf | Let me know when you have changed your password and I will grant commit access |
| kb9vqf | Do you want access to just the packaging repo or the source code as well? |
| Borg^Queen | very good, a little busy at the moment, can it wait a bit? |
| kb9vqf | sure |
| kb9vqf | just poke me or Email me when done |
| Borg^Queen | whatever Xu_R needs, I'm going to test whatever he packages |
| Xu_R | :D |
| Borg^Queen | and there's the smirk |
| Xu_R | teehee |
| Borg^Queen | He sees his opportunity to torture me |
| Xu_R | no, borgy, I will not install malware -_- |
| Borg^Queen | lol |
| Borg^Queen | I was taking a sip of water when the popped up |
| Borg^Queen | I almost did a spit take into the fan |
| Xu_R | *when the popped up? |
| Borg^Queen | it rather |
| Borg^Queen | [15:40] <Xu_R> no, borgy, I will not install malware -_- |

| MutantTurkey | I really need to get this dumb build problem fixedu p |
| MutantTurkey | I am itching to work on real problems :P |
| Borg^Queen | what's wrong? |
| MutantTurkey | i have to update some scripts now that we are using git, annd fix an error with my kdebase script. |

| kb9vqf | Anyone here know this guy? |
| kb9vqf | Pawel <0x4r0x@gmail.com> requested an account for trinity.etherpad.trinitydesktop.org |
| Xu_R | kb9vqf: no... |
| kb9vqf | If not I'll probably ignore his request |
| kb9vqf | could be a spam bot |
| Xu_R | ignore for now - and if anyone mentions on the list, then we'll know |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| kb9vqf | just thought I'd check here |
| Xu_R | nice to know that the request feature works :D |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| kb9vqf | Yes...since the (ill-timed) upgrades most things appear to be working at 100% |
| Xu_R | a very good thing indeed |
| Borg^Queen | ? |
| kb9vqf | On July 11th or so I did some upgrades and maintinance of the Trinity web services |
| Borg^Queen | Xu_R: f15 ... OMG lol |
| Xu_R | Borg^Queen: you can now request for an account on etherpad using a built-in form instead of us having to manually do it. |
| kb9vqf | While this fixed a lot of problems I did manage to knock the Etherpad offline |
| Borg^Queen | it seems gnome is the default ui, should I try kde4 |
| kb9vqf | and then the derecho came through a few days later |
| kb9vqf | so the timing ended up being very bad in hindsight |
| Borg^Queen | oh blimey, I think its dead |
| kb9vqf | ? |
| Xu_R | ... |
| * Xu_R wonders if Borg^Queen paid attention...? |
| Borg^Queen | my fedora 15 install |
| * Xu_R gets a no as an answer. |
| Borg^Queen | about etherpad, yes sorry, |
| kb9vqf | np |
| kb9vqf | we have several topics going on here apparently |
| * kb9vqf gets off to let the channel topic take precedence :) |
| Borg^Queen | I'm new to all this so I'll have to learn on the fly regarding things like etherpad |

| eldowan | MadRush: I'm using trinity on squeeze |
| Borg^Queen | well then, I'm off |
| Borg^Queen | thank you eldowan |
| eldowan | Borg^Queen: not sure what help i can be, i'm not at that machine. |
| eldowan | but yw, all the same |
| Borg^Queen | Well you'd know more than me, I haven't used Debian since Sarge |
| Borg^Queen | must go, sorry to run off MadRush, I have to make my own mad rush |
| *** Borg^Queen has quit IRC |
| eldowan | MadRush: I'll be leaving here shortly, but any info you can provide? |
| eldowan | I had to update some packages on my squeeze box (heh) before the install'd go through. though I dont' remember what |
| MadRush | lol borg |
| Xu_R | don't worry, Borg^Queen is always like that. |
| Xu_R | ping kb9vqf |
| MadRush | its just funny I use this nick but I forget that its actually words that can be used hah |
| MadRush | whats the apt command to go ahead and do a safe update? |
| Xu_R | apt-get upgrade |
| MadRush | thanks |
| MadRush | its been a while since I did that ... been using the update manager for quite a while now. |
| MadRush | im tempted to make a squeeze vm real quick and see if it works on there |
| eldowan | I think there's a switch that you cna use that won't do an update, but show you what would be installed. |
| eldowan | aptitude -s will simulate, but not perform actions. |

| MutantTurkey | also, I can't clone the git... |
| MutantTurkey | did you run "update-server-info" on the server? |
| MutantTurkey | fatal: http://cmorrison@trinitydesktop.org/scm/git/tde-packaging/info/refs not found: did you run git update-server-info on the server? |
| * Xu_R hopes that kb9vqf is not using java's implementation of git that SCM-Manager is supposed to use... |
| Xu_R | MutantTurkey: then again, I didn't have that problem... |
| Xu_R | oh, I know |
| Xu_R | MutantTurkey: check your url |
| MutantTurkey | whats wron with that? |
| Xu_R | it's scm.trinitydesktop.org/scm/git/tde-packaging |
| Xu_R | you're missing the subdomain |
| MutantTurkey | oh |
| MutantTurkey | okay :) |
| MutantTurkey | thanks! |
| Xu_R | np |
| MutantTurkey | this info should really be somewhere.. |
| Xu_R | it is... |
| MutantTurkey | ? |
| Xu_R | scm.trinitydesktop.org |
| Xu_R | if you login |
| MutantTurkey | what is git.trinitdesktop.org? |
| Xu_R | it also tells you your git clone command |
| Xu_R | MutantTurkey: the cgit interface AFAIK |
| MutantTurkey | oh here is a git tip if you dont want a giant wait to clone huge repos |
| MutantTurkey | git clone URL --depth=1 |
| MutantTurkey | only checks out most recent revision |
| *** kb9vqf has quit IRC |
| Xu_R | MutantTurkey: My internet is fast (but comcast loves throttling me), and I've really had not many problems with many big repos. but thanks for the tip! |
| MutantTurkey | but like when you clone the kernel... |
| MutantTurkey | if you ever do |
| MutantTurkey | it's annoyingly ridiculous :P |
| Xu_R | oh, now I want to. XD |
| MutantTurkey | Xu_R: yo so at this point all patches have been incorporated into qt3? |
| Xu_R | pretty much. there's nothing really much more. |
| MutantTurkey | have archlinux patches been looked at? |
| *** kb9vqf has joined #trinity-desktop |
| *** ChanServ sets mode: +o kb9vqf |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: hey I have all these qt3 patches in tde-packaging/arch/trinity-qt3/ and i don't know if they are still relevant |
| MutantTurkey | (i am undergoing the conversion to git now) |
| kb9vqf | can you see if they are in the qt3 master branch? |
| MutantTurkey | how would i do that? |
| MutantTurkey | is there a way to search? |
| kb9vqf | you would have to load each patch and see if the changes are already in the source files |
| kb9vqf | alternatively, check out the source and try to patch it |
| kb9vqf | patch will complain if the patches are already in place |
| Xu_R | MutantTurkey: just go with option 2, and use quilt. it'll make your life so much easier. |
| MutantTurkey | ok :) |
| MutantTurkey | I am terrible at remembering passwords D: |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: sorry to be a pain in the arse, could you reset me git password? |
| kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: reset |
| MutantTurkey | thanks |
| kb9vqf | np |
| MutantTurkey | does scm allow us to do oher things? or is it just a git manager? |
| kb9vqf | it's a scm manager |
| MutantTurkey | scm? |
| kb9vqf | so I could also provide subversion or mercurial repositories |
| MutantTurkey | okay |
| kb9vqf | source control manager |
| MutantTurkey | so many acronyms |
| kb9vqf | iirc |
| MutantTurkey | I thought it was vcs |
| kb9vqf | I know :) |
| kb9vqf | probably vcs is more generic |
| Xu_R | lol |
| Xu_R | scm, vcs |
| Xu_R | both work in the end :P |
| MutantTurkey | also what are we on |
| MutantTurkey | 3.3.8c? |
| Xu_R | yup |
| MutantTurkey | ok |
| MutantTurkey | oh my gosh this pkgbuild is way to complicated... |
| kb9vqf | 3.3.8d technically |
| kb9vqf | 3.3.8d being HEAD |
| kb9vqf | 3.3.8c was already released |
| kb9vqf | 3.3.8d may end up being the fully patched version of 3.3.8c |
| MutantTurkey | head? |
| kb9vqf | latest bleeding-edge version in the VCS |
| MutantTurkey | wait so I should pull from the main/ though right? |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| MutantTurkey | or is that HEAD? |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| MutantTurkey | whats in experimental/ ? |
| kb9vqf | let me put it this way: for an old stable project like Qt3 you want to pull the latest (HEAD) development sources from GIT |
| kb9vqf | experimental contains tqt4 |
| MutantTurkey | okay :) |
| kb9vqf | and believe me it is HIGHLY experimental :) |
| kb9vqf | will probably eat your cat and make trees fall on your car |
| Xu_R | D: kitty hater! |
| MutantTurkey | I'll stay away. |
| kb9vqf | hehe |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: also a maybe ridiculous thought |
| MutantTurkey | we want to use webkit, do we want to write a tqt interface for webkit? |
| MutantTurkey | there already is a qt4 port for it, I don't know how much effort would be required |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: hrm another weird thing, I can do this: git clone http://scm.trinitydesktop.org/scm/git/tde |
| MutantTurkey | but not git clone http://scm.trinitydesktop.org/scm/git/tde/main/dependencies/qt3/ |
| kb9vqf | no? |
| kb9vqf | what's the error? |
| MutantTurkey | fatal: remote error: Git repository not found |
| Xu_R | MutantTurkey: you could never do that with git last I checked. |
| * kb9vqf is a GIT newbie |
| MutantTurkey | Xu_R: yes you can I think... |
| MutantTurkey | I am almost sure |
| Xu_R | otherwise I would have done it with gitorious... |
| MutantTurkey | maybe not |
| kb9vqf | From what I understand it's not possible |
| * Xu_R tests his gitorious for that |
| MutantTurkey | you can do it |
| kb9vqf | I'm basing that on the fact that, unlike SVN, there is no .git directory in each subdirectory of a repository |
| MutantTurkey | sparse checkouts |
| Xu_R | MutantTurkey: no, it didn't work here... |
| Xu_R | oh, sparse checkouts, eww... |
| kb9vqf | ?? |
| Xu_R | there's this : http://stackoverflow.com/questions/600079/is-there-any-way-to-clone-a-git-repositorys-sub-directory-only |
| MutantTurkey | what do you mean eww? |
| MutantTurkey | it's identical to svn's way |
| MutantTurkey | http://vmiklos.hu/blog/sparse-checkout-example-in-git-1-7 |
| MutantTurkey | youjust have to set it up i think |
| Xu_R | exactly why I said eww. |
| Xu_R | you can't do that on an initial clone |
| MutantTurkey | i know |
| MutantTurkey | so what do we do? just force them to checkout everything? |
| kb9vqf | well, not a problem with my server then |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: no :) |
| kb9vqf | GIT does have limitations |
| Xu_R | MutantTurkey: yea. pretty much. unless you want me to do branches? |
| Xu_R | one branch per distro? |
| kb9vqf | ick |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: so does svn :P |
| MutantTurkey | anyway i think git has good advantages over svn |
| Xu_R | (that actually sounds kinda good, doing branches) |
| MutantTurkey | though this is one that seems pretty hefty annoying |
| kb9vqf | I assume there would still be a way to check out everything? |
| kb9vqf | I don't want to lose that |
| Xu_R | kb9vqf: git clone takes out everything. |
| kb9vqf | The more connections you have being established in an automated script, the higher the liklihood of failure |
| MutantTurkey | right |
| kb9vqf | well, as long as we retain the ability to have a large, editable "master" checkout of everything I don't care what is done about branches/sparse checkouts/etc. |
| * Xu_R actually wants to work on a seperate branch for now with these mandriva SRPMS |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: hmmm got an email back from a developer |
| kb9vqf | and? |
| kb9vqf | not good? |
| MutantTurkey | it was like off topic... |
| kb9vqf | ? |
| MutantTurkey | http://mailman.archlinux.org/pipermail/arch-general/2011-July/020977.html |
| MutantTurkey | read |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: also, are you being trottled at liek 90kbs? |
| kb9vqf | it sounds like they are not interested |
| kb9vqf | I shouldn't be |
| kb9vqf | which service is affected? |
| MutantTurkey | just git cloning is really slow |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: thats only one developer, out of like 30... |
| MutantTurkey | mostly what i was proposing was qt3 |
| MutantTurkey | kdelibs3 i even said wasn't important until we went stable |
| kb9vqf | 90kbits or 90kbytes? |
| MutantTurkey | bytes |
| kb9vqf | well that actually might be the max uplink |
| MutantTurkey | oh, in that case sorry for stealing all your bandwidth :P |
| kb9vqf | It's OK |
| kb9vqf | you can't |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| kb9vqf | 90k isn't that bad in reality |
| kb9vqf | if we find a bottlenect we'll start redirecting initial checkouts to another server |
| kb9vqf | *bottleneck |
| kb9vqf | I just don't know enough about GIT to do that yet :-P |
| MutantTurkey | right |
| MutantTurkey | i keep forgetting if i have mentioned this |
| MutantTurkey | i started to mirror kde.org and am going to start mirroring our git |
| kb9vqf | yes you did |
| kb9vqf | when you have the git mirror please let me know |
| MutantTurkey | okay I will |
| MutantTurkey | now how do I not just mirror it, but allow other people to check out from me |
| kb9vqf | I have no idea :-P |
| MutantTurkey | I mean right now I am just cloning it into a directory on a cron job |
| kb9vqf | That might work |
| kb9vqf | As long as the entries for commit still point to *.trinitydesktop.org it should be OK |
| MutantTurkey | yeah I don't know D: |
| kb9vqf | Like I said my GIT knowledge is somewhat sparse still, so I'm playing it safe |
| kb9vqf | and having people check out straight from the main repo |
| MutantTurkey | is good |
| MutantTurkey | I am just doing it mostly for backups now |
| kb9vqf | sure |
| Xu_R | getting tired now - night all |
| kb9vqf | gn |
| kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Did your git checkout complete yet? |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: yes but the thing is I need to do it frequently |
| MutantTurkey | which is annoying |
| MutantTurkey | for some reason I cannot do --depth 1 |
| * kb9vqf was just curious |
| MutantTurkey | to speed it up considerably. |
| MutantTurkey | do you know why that is? |
| kb9vqf | no, sorry |
| MutantTurkey | hrm |
| MutantTurkey | now i am erroring upon building qt34 |
| MutantTurkey | qt3' |
| kb9vqf | error? |
| MutantTurkey | uh |
| MutantTurkey | /home/calvin/trinity-tree/tde-packaging/arch/master/trinity-qt3/src/tde/main/dependencies/qt3/src/tools/qdir.cpp:45:28: fatal error: private/qdir_p.h: No such file or directory |
| kb9vqf | hmm |
| kb9vqf | that is supposed to be a symlink |
| kb9vqf | hang on while I look at it |
| MutantTurkey | ok |
| kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: fixed |
| MutantTurkey | re pull? |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| MutantTurkey | ok building works now ;) |
| MutantTurkey | could be easier than i thought |
| MutantTurkey | gotta figure out how to keep it in opt |
| MutantTurkey | just got to figure out how to package it right... |
| MutantTurkey | lied. |

| MutantTurkey | working and stuff |
| MutantTurkey | two jobs, lots of linux stuff, have a great girlfriend, my band is coming together. |
| MutantTurkey | things are looking pretty solid |
| ar | do you have any time left for sleep? |
| MutantTurkey | not at all |
| MutantTurkey | I haven't been sleeping enough |
| *** edakiri has joined #trinity-desktop |
| eldowan | MutantTurkey: wow, that's a full plate and then some. |
| eldowan | what kind of band? what's your rold? |
| MutantTurkey | eldowan: uh sort of just like rock |
| MutantTurkey | well thats not totally accurate |
| MutantTurkey | but it's pretty close |
| MutantTurkey | I am singer and guitar player and going to be the bass player when we find a replacement guitarist |
| eldowan | oh nice. you guys just starting out, or you been in the scene for a while? |
| MutantTurkey | this band is just starting up |
| MutantTurkey | I was in a jam band earlier last year, and we had alot of cool material, but for some reason no one was motivated to gig at all. hence we just became a sort of jamband |
| MutantTurkey | but i have the keys player from the old band, a new guitarist, and potentially a new drummer |
| MutantTurkey | on top of that I am working on getting recordings done for other local bands |
| MutantTurkey | eldowan: check this single out, I did for a band called Clairvoyance, which has alot of my pals in it |
| MutantTurkey | http://www.facebook.com/clairvoyanceband?sk=app_178091127385 |
| MutantTurkey | listen to "button up" |
| eldowan | will do. |
| eldowan | what are you p laying here? |
| MutantTurkey | I producced it |
| MutantTurkey | mixed, setup the studio space |
| eldowan | gotcha |
| MutantTurkey | basically all the work to let the band just focus on the music |
| eldowan | they aren't bad. |
| MutantTurkey | not for a bunch of kids... |
| MutantTurkey | i think the quality is pretty good |
| MutantTurkey | would like to vocals to be a bit warmer oh well. |
| eldowan | eh, you can always remaster if you have the orig tracks. |
| MutantTurkey | I do. |
| MutantTurkey | but the vocals are just a tad crappy imho |
| MutantTurkey | I cleaned it up about a million times better |
| eldowan | ah, they don't seem to be the most steady, that's for sure. kinda seems he's a little sharp sounding (duno about flat / sharp, but i mean to my ears) |
| MutantTurkey | yes I hear ya |
| MutantTurkey | they also have like 3 people sining at once |
| MutantTurkey | towards the end |
| MutantTurkey | complicates fixing it |
| eldowan | so true |
| MutantTurkey | because it was done together |
| eldowan | oh, on the one track? |
| MutantTurkey | yes |
| MutantTurkey | but that was the only one I did they put up |
| MutantTurkey | the cracked glass demo is way worse quality, but whatever. |
| eldowan | buddy of mine turned his house into a studio, did it right. soundproofed everything, master control room, silent rooms, nice vocal booth. |
| eldowan | the entire 2nd floor is recording space, and his master bedroom is his mixing control room. |
| MutantTurkey | thats the plan |
| MutantTurkey | :) |
| MutantTurkey | $30,000, a house and a decent ear = instant studio |
| MutantTurkey | my buddy actually works for a new label startup and thats what the guy did. |
| eldowan | oh nice. |
| eldowan | yeah, he's on his way to finishing it and trying to attract artists to record. |
| eldowan | he's also a /stellar/ musician, with contacts all over the city. so hopefully he does well. |
| MutantTurkey | sounds like my buy |

| MutantTurkey | 1 in a million chance... |
| MutantTurkey | ugh builing on a G5 Mac takes forever... |

| Xu_R | kb9vqf: WOAH, finally found the patchwork confi'rmation email. |
| Xu_R | it ended up in my spam |
| Xu_R | because the email has "example.com" in it... |
| *** affect has quit IRC |
| *** affect has joined #trinity-desktop |
| kb9vqf | example.com? |
| kb9vqf | hmm |
| * kb9vqf goes to check the configuration again |
| Borg^Queen | does anyone have time to help me figure out an error build mkvtools? |
| *** edakiri has quit IRC |
| eldowan | Borg^Queen: I dont' know how much /help/ i'll be... i usually install from apt |
| Borg^Queen | ok |
| Borg^Queen | I think I'm onto something hang ok |
| kb9vqf | Xu_R: Should be fixed (I hope) |
| Borg^Queen | ok it keeps saying checking for EBML... no |
| Borg^Queen | the libebml libs are installed to /usr/local/lib and /usr/local/include |
| Borg^Queen | this is the config line |
| Borg^Queen | ./configure --with-matroska-include=/usr/local/include/matroska \ |
| Borg^Queen | --with-matroska-lib=/usr/local/lib \ |
| Borg^Queen | --with-ebml-include=/usr/local/include \ |
| Borg^Queen | --with-ebml-lib=/usr/local/lib |
| Borg^Queen | clearly I'm doing something wrong since they are installed |
| MutantTurkey | Borg^Queen: what is the error |
| MutantTurkey | are your paths correct? verify that |
| Borg^Queen | checking for EBML... no |
| MutantTurkey | did you double check the paths? |
| Borg^Queen | that's the only error, not much feedback and yes, I checked the paths |
| Borg^Queen | but let me check again |
| MutantTurkey | is there an error file there? |
| MutantTurkey | not sure what it maybe be called, but look in the dir |
| Borg^Queen | checking |
| MutantTurkey | may have some specificis |
| Borg^Queen | yes they're correct |
| MutantTurkey | okay |
| MutantTurkey | any error in the build files? |
| Borg^Queen | checking now |
| Borg^Queen | one error |
| Borg^Queen | conftest.cc: In function 'int main()': |
| Borg^Queen | conftest.cc:15: error: 'exit' was not declared in this scope |
| Borg^Queen | next |
| Borg^Queen | configure:3368: g++ -c -g -O2 conftest.cc >&5 |
| Borg^Queen | conftest.cc:11: error: 'void std::exit(int)' should have been declared inside 'std' |
| MutantTurkey | okay that seems unrelated to the includes |
| MutantTurkey | view the conftest.cc |
| Borg^Queen | I know but just in case |
| MutantTurkey | maybe thier test is failing to build... |
| MutantTurkey | look at the file |
| Borg^Queen | I see nothing |
| Borg^Queen | what files should I be looking at |
| Borg^Queen | it finds everything but that embl |
| MutantTurkey | hrm |
| MutantTurkey | no idea then :/ |
| Borg^Queen | aye |
| Borg^Queen | AH! find newer versions |
| Borg^Queen | hang on |
| MutantTurkey | ? |
| Xu_R | back |
| Xu_R | kb9vqf: works OK :D |
| * Xu_R is now going to start throwing SuSE patches up knowing they don't get lost. hopefully. |
| MutantTurkey | any recommends on windows free laptops? |
| MutantTurkey | I don't want to pay the extra $150 for no reason. |
| *** K`zan has joined #trinity-desktop |
| kb9vqf | Xu_R: They won't be lost |
| kb9vqf | tape backups are scheduled :) |
| Xu_R | :D |
| kb9vqf | just remember...plain text patches ONLY (as attachments preferred) |
| kb9vqf | no .gz stuff |
| MutantTurkey | no gz stuff? |
| Xu_R | I always paste the patch into the message itself. |
| * Xu_R never messes with attachments |
| MutantTurkey | yeah I prefer that also |
| MutantTurkey | so you can review them in commenting back :) |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | and also so that patchwork will pick them up |
| kb9vqf | patchwork doesn't decompress tarballs due to the danger of a tarbomb |
| Borg^Queen | TAPE? |
| kb9vqf | it's actually better than disk |
| kb9vqf | lower BER |
| kb9vqf | higher reliability |
| kb9vqf | lower cost |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| Xu_R | I'm actually going to use a different email address for emailing patches because it's easier for me to keep track |
| kb9vqf | sure |
| MutantTurkey | any laptop recommends? |
| * kb9vqf has had "good" "enterprise class" disks fail way too often |
| kb9vqf | I used to recommend Lenovo but I think their stuff has gone down the sewer lately |
| Xu_R | Lenovo is still pretty good. |
| Xu_R | but yea, going down a bit faster than expected |
| Xu_R | how about Toshiba? |
| kb9vqf | The new stuff has a pretty high failure rate |
| Borg^Queen | lenovo rocks |
| * Xu_R thinks Toshiba is good |
| kb9vqf | Stay far away from Toshiba IMHO |
| Borg^Queen | toshiba is very anti foss |
| Xu_R | ah. figures. |
| * Xu_R only used Toshiba with windows |
| Borg^Queen | I don't like toshiba, had business dealings with them, horrorible company |
| MutantTurkey | yeah I am thinking a stinkpad actually... |
| MutantTurkey | i like lenovo they are troopers |
| Xu_R | stinkpad LOL |
| kb9vqf | My r61 just keeps going...and going... |
| Borg^Queen | lol |
| eldowan | stinkpad indeed |
| MutantTurkey | well that name is obviously applied joking. |
| kb9vqf | also my T400 |
| MutantTurkey | because they are the #1 trusted brand for buisnesses. |
| Xu_R | ah, my cousin has a T400. It broke in China, and we got it fixed pretty quickly |
| Xu_R | :D |
| eldowan | we had almost every one of our old t41 era ones failed. |
| Borg^Queen | MutantTurkey: my old ibm "stink" pad has been puked on by babies, thrown down a flight of stairs, and still works perfectly |
| eldowan | Borg^Queen: really? we had almost the exact opposite experience |
| MutantTurkey | so I am thinking a stinkpad then. |
| Borg^Queen | eldowan: ? |
| Xu_R | only yours, Borg^Queen, will ever face torture like that |
| eldowan | w/ the stinkpads |
| kb9vqf | My r61 has had water dropped on it, it's been sat on, and it still works great |
| Borg^Queen | Xu_R: wait til you have kids |
| MutantTurkey | really that bad of luck? eldowan |
| eldowan | we had over 15 fail |
| eldowan | and didn't even have 30 total |
| Borg^Queen | I and curse you with a dozen kids |
| Borg^Queen | eldowan: consumer or industrial machines |
| kb9vqf | the new ones eldowan? |
| *** MutantTurkey has quit IRC |
| Borg^Queen | there's a HUGE differenece |
| eldowan | Borg^Queen: business class, old IBM |
| Xu_R | Borg^Queen: LOL. |
| eldowan | kb9vqf ^ |
| *** MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Xu_R | how wonderful. |
| MutantTurkey | hummmm weird. got disconnected |
| eldowan | kb9vqf: gotta quick question about trinity for ya, fi you have the time |
| MutantTurkey | anyway, experience with lenevo is positive? |
| Borg^Queen | eldowan: if they run windows, they were not industrial grade |
| Xu_R | lenovo = :D |
| Borg^Queen | MutantTurkey: very positive. I even called them and ended up talking to 5 techs at once |
| eldowan | Borg^Queen: aah, yeah, those were all old xp boxes |
| MutantTurkey | excellent |
| Borg^Queen | eldowan: not industrial grade |
| MutantTurkey | specifically which ones? |
| Borg^Queen | Generally the ones over 1k US with a 3 year warranty |
| eldowan | ours? t40 t41 t42 IIRC |
| Borg^Queen | the 1 year ones are consumers |
| MutantTurkey | Borg^Queen: I don't need warranty. |
| Borg^Queen | Ihave a t40 |
| Borg^Queen | MutantTurkey: and you don't need a helmet or hand rails |
| MutantTurkey | Borg^Queen: statistically not worth it... |
| kb9vqf | warranty is a good thing.... |
| Borg^Queen | aye |
| MutantTurkey | statistically warrantys are not worth it. |
| kb9vqf | yes they are for one reason: infant death |
| Borg^Queen | I have a t30 that was beaten to death, new HD and BOOM working for 5 years and going |
| kb9vqf | there is more and more infant death due to lower QC at the factory |
| kb9vqf | no warranty == SOL |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: rreally? |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| MutantTurkey | its funny |
| MutantTurkey | because normal companies will just give you a warranty and service |
| MutantTurkey | only computer ones are assholes and charge extra... |
| kb9vqf | don't get me started on the new "enterprise" hard disks I tried to purchase |
| kb9vqf | hehe |
| Borg^Queen | a computer is most likely to fail within 60 days of initial operation |
| kb9vqf | right |
| kb9vqf | that's "infant death" |
| Borg^Queen | aye exactly |
| MutantTurkey | then an included 1 year warrenty is nbest. |
| Borg^Queen | if you get a industrial grade one, it will have linux and a 3 y war |
| MutantTurkey | Borg^Queen: link please |
| kb9vqf | I can personally recommend up to the T400 series |
| Borg^Queen | a small Chinese man like Xu_R will follow you around of you get the special package |
| kb9vqf | after that things get dicey |
| Borg^Queen | t400 yes |
| MutantTurkey | 420? |
| kb9vqf | sounds like a consumer model |
| MutantTurkey | they have a $700 sale. |
| MutantTurkey | i mean.... |
| Borg^Queen | avoid, the lowend and extremely high end |
| MutantTurkey | 1750 vs 1000 |
| kb9vqf | get the one with the mil-spec testing :) |
| Xu_R | t400 ftw |
| kb9vqf | the T400 had that testing and it just keeps going |
| MutantTurkey | I am going to take the train, we can talk more when i get home |
| Borg^Queen | agreed |
| Xu_R | Borg^Queen: I'm freaking 6ft2... |
| Borg^Queen | k be safe |
| Xu_R | well, almost. like 6ft1... |
| Borg^Queen | Xu_R: ahh industrial grade chinese |
| Xu_R | ...-_- |
| Borg^Queen | Wait I thought you were mexican |
| MutantTurkey | t400 seems to be the older core2 models |
| MutantTurkey | i need one with the i3 i5 i7 series |
| Borg^Queen | yes, but its rock solid |
| MutantTurkey | anyway gotta go! |
| MutantTurkey | thanks! |

| backwoodsman | hi all.. any chance of binaries being made for Debian Testing? I'd like to install Trinity on Mint Debian, but it's based on Testing, and the Squeeze binaries won't install due to unresolved dependencies. |
| kb9vqf | working on compilation tests for Maverick now...binaries would be built after those are successful |
| backwoodsman | Maverick? I thought those were already available. In any case, would that work on Mint Debian? |
| kb9vqf | yes--for 3.5.12 |
| kb9vqf | I'm tackling one problem at a time |
| kb9vqf | by using a known-sane build environment I can know for certain that any problems I run into are a direct result of source changes from 3.5.12 to the current source HEAD revisions |
| kb9vqf | once the code is known-good then I will build against other environments that may or may not work properly the first tiem |
| kb9vqf | *time |
| kb9vqf | and know that any problems I run into there are caused by the new environment, not fundamental flaws in the source code |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| backwoodsman | sounds good.. I'll try the Maverick binaries on Mint 11, I believe that should work. |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | let us know if they work or not |

| mk_MP | Hi, is there anyone else active on the channel except robots? |
| *** Borg^Queen has joined #trinity-desktop |
| mk_MP | Hi, Borg^Queen, are you a bot or not? |
| Borg^Queen | Of course I'm a bot |
| mk_MP | Good. :-) |
| * Borg^Queen assimilates mk_MP |
| mk_MP | I am new to this channel and on the search for information... |
| Borg^Queen | Ah ok shoot |
| mk_MP | Trying to incorporate knowledge from the Borg. |
| mk_MP | :-) |
| Borg^Queen | lol |
| mk_MP | Look, I only learnt about trinity project today. |
| mk_MP | Any I am impressed. |
| Borg^Queen | Its a great project, and getting better all the time. More and more distros are picking it up. |
| mk_MP | I wondered whether trinity includes also QT3 and not only KDE3... |
| Borg^Queen | It does |
| mk_MP | I see. |
| mk_MP | That sounds interesting indeed. |
| Borg^Queen | it is |
| mk_MP | Look, there is the idea to include trinity in MacPorts for Mac OS X. |
| Borg^Queen | Sweet |
| mk_MP | At the moment there is qt3 and qt3-mac available and also kde3... |
| Borg^Queen | kb9vqf: is the founder, he would be very interested in this |
| mk_MP | but there seems to be reoccuring trouble now. |
| Borg^Queen | trouble? |
| mk_MP | I learnt from a friend who recently upgraded to Lion with Xcode 4.1 that now (after selfupdateing and upgrading MacPorts) qt3 won't build anymore. |
| Borg^Queen | sounds like a bug in the recent update |
| Borg^Queen | report it to macports |
| mk_MP | This is a real pain, since up to now KDE3 had always been our safety net with respect to KMyMoney. |
| Borg^Queen | good app kmymoney |
| mk_MP | KMyMoney4 on KDE4 is still having loads of trouble. |
| Borg^Queen | what are the error msgs? |
| Borg^Queen | everything in kde4 is having loads of trouble |
| mk_MP | So, KMyMoney 1.0.5 was always a safe fallback solution. |
| Borg^Queen | agreed |
| mk_MP | With a broken qt3 port this would be gone. |
| mk_MP | For me |
| mk_MP | on Snow Leopart |
| mk_MP | all is still okay |
| Borg^Queen | hmm |
| mk_MP | but my friend's machine is bonked with respect to KDE3. |
| mk_MP | So, |
| mk_MP | the idea was to get trinity up and running via MacPorts. |
| mk_MP | I saw from your webpage that there are only Linuxes up to now supported. |
| Borg^Queen | kb9vqf: is the man to speak to, he's the founder and who know far more about fixing it than I would |
| mk_MP | But I think it would be really worthwhile to get it to life on Mac OSX, since it has evolved quite a bit since the 3.3.8 currently in qt3 port on MacPorts. |
| mk_MP | OK, I wonder how I could contact kb9vqf... |
| Borg^Queen | agreed |
| Borg^Queen | hang on |
| mk_MP | will do |
| kb9vqf | Xu_R: Submit your patches as attachments |
| kb9vqf | BTW I'm here :) |
| kb9vqf | I have NO mac experience whatsoever |
| mk_MP | Hi kb9vqf, good to see you here! |
| mk_MP | Great project!!! |
| kb9vqf | file a bug at http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net with the compilation error message and I'll see if anything stands out :) |
| kb9vqf | thanks! |
| Borg^Queen | oih there he is |
| mk_MP | Well, I don't know whether I'll be able to contribute really. but I'd try to get it to build here on the Mac. |
| kb9vqf | we do maintain Qt3 so there is half a chance that I may be able to help |
| mk_MP | Ah, ok, also for qt3 |
| kb9vqf | I can't build it on a mac here (obviously) but if you provide the build logs I may be able to see what can be fixed |
| Borg^Queen | kb9vqf: mac is a unix os (darwin) running a similair to kde3 UI |
| mk_MP | Great. Good to be in touch then. |
| kb9vqf | Borg_Queen: I know :) |
| Borg^Queen | ah ok |
| kb9vqf | but as far as hands on experience...well |
| mk_MP | Yep, I'll use your bug tracker then. :-) Very good. |
| Borg^Queen | kb9vqf: aye |
| * kb9vqf counted clicks for common tasks on one once--that's it :) |
| Borg^Queen | lol |
| kb9vqf | mk_MP: Sounds good |
| mk_MP | Is there a tarball avilable for download for trinity? |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | 3.5.12 is on the main page |
| mk_MP | Couldn't find the right link on the main page. Must have been blind. |
| kb9vqf | hmmm...maybe it used to be there and isn't anymore |
| * kb9vqf goes to look |
| mk_MP | Please do, there are only instruction, release notes and that is it. |
| kb9vqf | It's under the Releases tab |
| mk_MP | Ah, ok |
| kb9vqf | click 3.5.12 and there will be a tarball download like |
| mk_MP | Found it. |
| kb9vqf | *link |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| mk_MP | Would be better to have a more direct path to it. :-) |
| kb9vqf | it is not obvious at all apparently :-P |
| kb9vqf | Maybe "Downloads" would be better than "Releases" |
| kb9vqf | ? |
| mk_MP | Yep |
| kb9vqf | OK |
| * kb9vqf goes to change it now |
| mk_MP | OK, I wonder what packages I'd need to get a running qt3 plus basic kde3, so that I'd be able to build kmymoney on to of that. |
| kb9vqf | fixed :) |
| mk_MP | I don't see a qt3 package anywhere... |
| kb9vqf | qt3, arts, kdelibs, kmymoney |
| kb9vqf | qt3 is in our GIT repository |
| mk_MP | Again I am blind |
| mk_MP | Oh |
| kb9vqf | you caught us in the middle of a move to GIT |
| mk_MP | THat's not obvious from the releases page |
| kb9vqf | no it is not |
| mk_MP | I see. |
| kb9vqf | as of the 3.5.12 release we were NOT maintaining qt3 |
| mk_MP | I'd like to have a tarball here as well. |
| mk_MP | YOu are not? |
| kb9vqf | 3.5.12 was released a while ago |
| mk_MP | I thought you did as well, as being part of kde3/trinity?! |
| kb9vqf | we decided to maintain qt3 after 3.5.12 was released |
| mk_MP | Ah |
| mk_MP | ok |
| kb9vqf | make sense? |
| mk_MP | yep |
| Xu_R | kb9vqf: oh - nah, I like them inline in the end :P besides, it didn't catch MutantTurkey's when he sent his as an attachment |
| kb9vqf | it didn't make it into the 3.5.12 release notes for obvious reasons ;-) |
| mk_MP | So, I need a tarball of it as well. |
| kb9vqf | hang on |
| kb9vqf | http://git.trinitydesktop.org/viewgit/index.php?a=tree&p=Trinity%20Desktop%20Environment&hb=HEAD&f=main/dependencies/qt3 |
| kb9vqf | There is a link at the bottom for a .tar.gz file |
| mk_MP | OK, see it |
| kb9vqf | this stuff is not publicly documented yet because 3.5.13 is not yet released |
| mk_MP | No release number is actually connected with it... |
| kb9vqf | right |
| mk_MP | http://git.trinitydesktop.org/viewgit/index.php?a=archive&p=Trinity%20Desktop%20Environment&h=4116ba197904ebc0b37d7c2d4cef71d58aec6649&t=targz |
| kb9vqf | 3.5.13 should come out in the fall if all goes well |
| mk_MP | I see... |
| mk_MP | Hmm... |
| kb9vqf | then there will be more extensive release notes, including coverage of our qt3 repo |
| mk_MP | OK, |
| kb9vqf | as of right now qt3 is at version 3.3.8d |
| kb9vqf | but that is not a final release |
| mk_MP | ok. qt3-mac is at 3.3.8b, I think. |
| kb9vqf | if you find bugs while compiling qt3 please let us know |
| kb9vqf | and we will attempt to fix the problems and include them in the official 3.3.8d release |
| mk_MP | OK, I'll try to download the stuff and try to build it here. |
| kb9vqf | include the patches that is :) |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| mk_MP | OK, you 've to give me time though. I'm not the official maintainer of the qt3 port on MacPorts and have at first to figure out whether I can easily replace the current tarball against your modified one. |
| kb9vqf | sure |
| mk_MP | Once I've set it up I'll report back to you. |
| kb9vqf | right |
| kb9vqf | Email on the mailing list may be easiest |
| mk_MP | Shall I use the bug tracker for communication with you |
| mk_MP | or ML |
| mk_MP | OK |
| kb9vqf | trinity-devel or the bugtracker |
| mk_MP | I see ML is best. |
| mk_MP | I prefer ML |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| mk_MP | for discussions |
| mk_MP | bt for bug. |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | keeps it organized and neat :) |
| mk_MP | OK, thatnks for now!!! |
| mk_MP | Was great to talk to you!!!! |
| kb9vqf | thanks, and thanks for offering to help in this area! |
| mk_MP | Thanks for your help so far, I'll come back to you through the list and perhaps also using IRC. |
| mk_MP | You are welcome. :-) |
| mk_MP | OK, have to go to bed now. |
| mk_MP | Bye!!! |
| kb9vqf | see ya |

| kb9vqf | ok |
| Xu_R | I'll resubmit them |
| kb9vqf | Ah, even better I was able to delete them |
| kb9vqf | so submit away |
| Xu_R | ok |
| Xu_R | now to see if patchwork caught it. |
| kb9vqf | Xu_R: Also, any chance that I can get some help with fixing the bugs on the bugtracker....?? |
| Xu_R | sure |
| kb9vqf | 3.5.13 is blocked on that |
| kb9vqf | and by help I mean that you guys puck a bug, fix it, and send a patch in to the bug report :) |
| kb9vqf | *pick |
| kb9vqf | I'm pretty busy on this end keeping up with the patches and fixing glitches that are not reported to the bugtracker yet |
| Xu_R | ok |
| kb9vqf | also starting Natty builds, which will undoubtedly reveal a mass of steaming gcc4.6 problems |
| Xu_R | ah, fun. |
| Xu_R | i'll check for any gcc46 patches I can find |
| * kb9vqf is not looking forward to it |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | Here's another fun Qt4-related glitch |
| kb9vqf | /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.4.5/../../../../lib/libtqassistantclient.a: could not read symbols: Bad value |
| Xu_R | >_> |
| kb9vqf | Only happens on kdevelop, and only on amd64 :-P |
| Xu_R | oh god, that sucks |
| kb9vqf | On the plus side I successfully built our Qt3.3.8d code under Debian |
| kb9vqf | with only 4 patches needed :) |
| kb9vqf | (Debian/Ubuntu specific patches) |
| kb9vqf | sure beats the several dozen (!) that were originally required |
| Xu_R | nice. |
| Xu_R | D: wow. patchwork didn't catch my media-crypt_teardown.diff patch but caught the security one... |
| * kb9vqf goes to investigate |
| Xu_R | oh, and it messed up the patch inline again. |
| * Xu_R sighs and gives up for now |
| kb9vqf | beats me :;/ |
| Xu_R | kb9vqf: you already have the patches anyway, so i'm assuming it's thunderbird that's screwing me up |
| kb9vqf | as I said...attach them.... |
| Xu_R | kb9vqf: it didn't catch MutantTurkey's ODBC patch that he didn't attach inline D: |
| kb9vqf | grrr |
| kb9vqf | I don't have the patience or time to pick through the ML to find patches |
| Xu_R | >_> |
| Xu_R | I know... |
| kb9vqf | If patchwork isn't working can you post the URLs to the patches in the ML archives on an Etherpad? |
| Xu_R | sure |
| kb9vqf | thanks |

| hazridi | nevermind -- it was unmanaged due to being in /etc/network/interfaces |
| hazridi | now trinity is pretty much KDE 3, but perfect |
| kb9vqf | Glad to hear it :) |
| hazridi | spoke a little too soon, as it doesn't seem to want to connect to either of my APs... cnetworkmanager is working though |
| kb9vqf | I assume you restarted your machine after removing the interface from /etc/network/interfaces? |
| kb9vqf | if not sometimes networkmanager gets confused |
| hazridi | I restarted network-manager... using cnetworkmanager (cli interface to n-m) it connected OK |

| Xu_R | soo... what happened to tbottu? XD it looks like it had spazzing moments |
| kb9vqf | I was getting messages in the logs requesting that I authenticate to Freenode.... |
| kb9vqf | so I had to set up the authentication plugin |
| kb9vqf | that little process required several reloads |
| Xu_R | ah. |
| Xu_R | looks like tbottu is dictator again then... |
| kb9vqf | obviously it's working then :) |
| kb9vqf | if people here don't like it I can probably deop him, but personally I don't see the harm |
| MutantTurkey | :P |
| MutantTurkey | I think he's good here. |
| Xu_R | keep him :P |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Any progress on that "developers portal" page for the Website? |
| kb9vqf | Or some bug fixes? :-) |
| kb9vqf | Xu_R: You too regarding the bug fixes... |
| kb9vqf | Maybe someone can look at that oh-so-stale BOTW in the topic? |
| * kb9vqf is trying to keep things moving along.... |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: honestly I am trying to pull some free time together for it |
| kb9vqf | ok, sounds good |
| MutantTurkey | I still am working on getting it all built. |
| kb9vqf | sure |
| MutantTurkey | which makes me wonder if i should just do a debian install on another box to test and build trinity... |
| kb9vqf | I'm also starting builds under Natty, so gcc4.6 issues should be resolved soon |
| Xu_R | kb9vqf: many of the bugs on that bugtracker I'm not reproducing... which leads me to wonder if system is working right. |
| Xu_R | *if my system |
| kb9vqf | If you are not reproducing them flag that on the bug report |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: was I supposed to create the page? D: okay! :p |
| kb9vqf | it is possible (likely even) that some of the more recent changes I put into SVN fixed some of the obscure bugs |
| kb9vqf | that could have been caused by memory corruption |
| kb9vqf | kdesktop was leaking like a sieve on later gcc versions |
| kb9vqf | that has been fixed |
| Xu_R | kb9vqf: I'm planning on reinstalling my trinity VM ASAP, so I'll try to see if I can reproduce the bugs again |
| kb9vqf | good |
| kb9vqf | If neither you nor MutantTurkey can reproduce a bug mark it as RESOLVED/INVALID and state that you cannot reporoduce it |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: so the whole kdesktop problem is fixed in the svn right? |
| kb9vqf | Also ask the reporter to verify that he can reproduce it under the latest GIT |
| kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Yes! |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: sweet. |
| kb9vqf | valgrind was helpful |
| kb9vqf | but it still took quite a while |
| MutantTurkey | I think i am going to clock out and get back to work |
| kb9vqf | the problems were obscure |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| MutantTurkey | on trinity |
| MutantTurkey | wow its thundering and storming like crazy all of a sudden |

| MutantTurkey | http://trinity-devel.pearsoncomputing.net/?0s::2714 |
| MutantTurkey | piccoro said something, I have no idea what though. |
| kb9vqf | If that is the same patch I am thinking of, yes, it was applied to the Qt3 branch in GIT |
| kb9vqf | not sure though, and I'm not going to go picking through random tarballs to find out! |
| MutantTurkey | mine or his? |
| MutantTurkey | mine was a few lines |
| MutantTurkey | updates a few defintions thats all |
| kb9vqf | his |
| kb9vqf | is yours not in GIT? |
| MutantTurkey | thats why I sent it in to see... |
| kb9vqf | link please? |
| kb9vqf | if it was in patchwork I probably already processed it |
| kb9vqf | BTW did I mention how much I hate Qt4? http://git.trinitydesktop.org/viewgit/index.php?a=commit&p=Trinity%%20Desktop%%20Environment&h=a7b8e6024196412a8849d00f68c01512dbf80e37 |
| MutantTurkey | Invalid Project? |
| MutantTurkey | link is a no go |
| MutantTurkey | well, qt3 is building so far :) so hopefully that's one thing out of the way |
| kb9vqf | invalid project? |
| kb9vqf | on the git link I just posted? |
| MutantTurkey | yes. |
| kb9vqf | hmm, you're right |
| MutantTurkey | I see it though |
| MutantTurkey | I looked at it by the commit md5 or whatever |
| MutantTurkey | Nokia is seriously dropping the ball lately. |
| kb9vqf | Try this |
| kb9vqf | http://git.trinitydesktop.org/viewgit/index.php?a=commit&p=Trinity%20Desktop%20Environment&h=a7b8e6024196412a8849d00f68c01512dbf80e37 |
| kb9vqf | ah, ok |
| MutantTurkey | yeah I got it. but that's ridiculous |
| kb9vqf | I mean seriously, what's so hard about making sure that a double is actually a *double* so that comparisons work?!? |
| MutantTurkey | Qt4 seems less and less viable haha. |
| kb9vqf | hehe |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: did you report it? |
| kb9vqf | no, because I don't have time to put together a test case |
| MutantTurkey | ah |
| kb9vqf | and I saw a couple bugs already |
| kb9vqf | along those lines |
| kb9vqf | Nokia's answer: "Tough rocks" |
| kb9vqf | (paraphrased) |
| kb9vqf | actually they went on about how double is an approximation |
| kb9vqf | and this is to be expected |
| kb9vqf | all I know is that behaviour like that is going to break a lot of code bery subtly |
| kb9vqf | *very |
| MutantTurkey | ... |
| kb9vqf | In this case (TQString("3.3").toDouble() > 3.3) was returning TRUE! |
| MutantTurkey | yeah they are dumb. |
| MutantTurkey | how is "approximately" large? |
| MutantTurkey | larger than? |
| kb9vqf | I know |
| kb9vqf | this worked: |
| kb9vqf | In this case (TQString("3.2999999999").toDouble() > 3.3) was returning TRUE! |
| kb9vqf | that is, (TQString("3.2999999999").toDouble() > 3.3) returned false |
| kb9vqf | as it is supposed to |
| MutantTurkey | oh man |
| kb9vqf | and only on i386...and only on gcc4.6.... |
| kb9vqf | :-P |
| kb9vqf | (i.e. Ubuntu Natty i386) |
| kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Can you check this again? |
| kb9vqf | rsync rsync://rsync.pearsoncomputing.net |
| kb9vqf | I'm getting complaints of failure on the QuickBuild IP address again |
| kb9vqf | yet the mirrors synced up normally this morning (???) |
| MutantTurkey | also, if you want to make me a package mirror I could do that. |
| MutantTurkey | I am getting nothing. |
| MutantTurkey | it is just hnaging |
| kb9vqf | great |
| kb9vqf | /sarcasm |
| MutantTurkey | :-P |
| kb9vqf | Now I get to wonder if my ISP is throttling/disconnecting that port or if I had something fail |
| *** Xu_R|ZNC is now known as Xu_R |
| Xu_R | sorry for that random d/c |
| Xu_R | windows is so lovely. |
| MutantTurkey | honestly the windows desktop experience IMHO is way ahead of linux right now |
| MutantTurkey | for regular users. |
| Xu_R | I know... |
| Xu_R | but the stability can kiss my @$$ |
| MutantTurkey | yeah seriously |
| * kb9vqf reminds MutantTurkey of Windows 8 |
| MutantTurkey | windows 8? |
| kb9vqf | ick ick ick |
| Xu_R | AHHHH WINDOWS 8 *dies* |
| kb9vqf | google it |
| Xu_R | that new interface makes vista nice |
| MutantTurkey | hahah |
| * kb9vqf knows *gag* |
| Xu_R | nice to know i'm not the only one thinking that XD |
| kb9vqf | unlike Linux, there is no Windows 7 UI fork possible... |
| kb9vqf | Linux may show its strengths ye |
| kb9vqf | *yet |
| Xu_R | hopefully |
| MutantTurkey | so... |
| MutantTurkey | It's like the windows 7 phone |
| kb9vqf | well, I like to think I am in control of my desktop, and that just won't do it |
| kb9vqf | I never feel fully in control of a cell phone :-P |
| Xu_R | MutantTurkey: yup |
| MutantTurkey | wow. |
| MutantTurkey | so is it for a desktop or not? |
| kb9vqf | yes, that's their new desktop |
| MutantTurkey | weird |
| kb9vqf | that and they want all people to program desktop apps in HTML5 and JavaScript |
| kb9vqf | no C/C++/etc. allowe |
| kb9vqf | *allowed |
| MutantTurkey | what about C#? |
| kb9vqf | No |
| MutantTurkey | really? |
| Xu_R | they want .net to die too now... |
| kb9vqf | Nothing but HTML5 and JavaScript |
| MutantTurkey | that was like a big microsot thing |
| MutantTurkey | wow |
| MutantTurkey | I mean this doesn't feel like a pc |
| * kb9vqf thinks there will probably be a 6-figure cost for the "developers edition" |
| MutantTurkey | it's all touch based? |
| kb9vqf | yeah |
| Xu_R | they expect all the PCs to be touch now |
| kb9vqf | Now I am so glad that I don't do that Windows thing |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| MutantTurkey | yeah seriosuly |
| Xu_R | XD |
| MutantTurkey | this is great for linux! |
| Xu_R | I still need windows for apps... D: |
| MutantTurkey | Xu_R: no you wont |
| Xu_R | (thank god for virtualbox full screen mode) |
| MutantTurkey | all windows apps are going to be javascript + html. |
| MutantTurkey | so they will be cross platform... |
| Xu_R | I mean current apps |
| Xu_R | that aren't JS/HTML |
| kb9vqf | this sounds suspiciously like limiting the ability to generate new content |
| kb9vqf | == big bucks paid to the few who have the tools to generate new content |
| Xu_R | it sounds like Apple. |
| kb9vqf | and I mean quality "AAA" content |
| Xu_R | true. |
| MutantTurkey | but you can still get to the old shell right? |
| Xu_R | MutantTurkey: we're doubting that right now |
| kb9vqf | not for long if M$ follows its history |
| kb9vqf | general purpose computing, where everyone has the tools to develop new things, seems to be going away |
| kb9vqf | it's sad really |
| MutantTurkey | time for linux to rise :) |
| Xu_R | I hope so :D |
| MutantTurkey | not the way gnome3 is going... |
| kb9vqf | hence this project |
| MutantTurkey | they did the same thing as windows 8 |
| MutantTurkey | I think xfce4 and triinty are the only two really good ones. |
| kb9vqf | "Want to be a CREATOR, not just a CONSUMER?" |
| MutantTurkey | as far as DE's |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| kb9vqf | we need a slogan |
| MutantTurkey | I wish xfce was a bit more flxible. |
| Xu_R | MutantTurkey: the only nice thing about GNOME 3 is extensions that allow you to completely change it (and make it gnome 2) |
| MutantTurkey | I think that the "app" idea could come to trinity but i don't see how |
| MutantTurkey | without bloating it up |
| MutantTurkey | I DO like the windows 8 shell they showed for maybe using on a mobile phone or a television screen |
| MutantTurkey | but not for a PC though |
| Xu_R | agreed. |
| kb9vqf | app idea? |
| kb9vqf | what specifically? |
| Xu_R | how about extensions? |
| kb9vqf | to do what? |
| Xu_R | actually, scratch that for now. I'm not thinking right |
| * kb9vqf notes that the framework for "extensions" is probably already there |
| * Xu_R is reinstalling trinity as we speak |
| kb9vqf | in fact the entire UI theming system is a type of "extension" |
| Xu_R | oh? |
| MutantTurkey | right that would be cool |
| MutantTurkey | kde3 is all module-ized |
| MutantTurkey | right? |
| MutantTurkey | like even with kparts and such |
| kb9vqf | yes it is |
| kb9vqf | so I ask again: |
| kb9vqf | what do you mean by extensions? |
| kb9vqf | what new functionality did you want to see? |
| MutantTurkey | I am not sure what he means |
| MutantTurkey | social networking extensions would be great |
| Xu_R | what I meant by extensions is like what GNOME Shell did - to customize the interface. that's why I said scratch that for now |
| kb9vqf | ah, ok |
| kb9vqf | because we have that |
| kb9vqf | there's even a theme to make a pretty good copy of OSX |
| Xu_R | yup. |
| * kb9vqf is not into social networking |
| MutantTurkey | I know :P |
| kb9vqf | but if one of you wanted to work on such a thing... :) |
| kb9vqf | I would almost suggest that those functions should not be part of the desktop core like KDE4 |
| MutantTurkey | indeed |
| kb9vqf | but rather be added to Kopete/Kontact or some other systray resident app |
| kb9vqf | or even a new systray app |
| MutantTurkey | good thinking |
| Xu_R | just curious - have any of you also tried GNOME shell already? |
| kb9vqf | that's the sad thing: KDE4 requires you to interrupt your workflow and go to a widget embedded in the desktop, whereas the old systray model allows the user to receive/handle notifications without much interruption-- |
| Xu_R | (and the extensions system?) |
| kb9vqf | click and the window is up, click again and it's gone |
| kb9vqf | Xu_R: no I have not |
| kb9vqf | and probably will not |
| MutantTurkey | less interuption is avorable |
| MutantTurkey | Xu_R: I have. |
| kb9vqf | avorable? |
| Xu_R | avorable? |
| MutantTurkey | favorable. |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | that's the Trinity model |
| * Xu_R agrees |
| kb9vqf | in fact, the "docked apps" crud nowdays is just the systray model applied to arbitrary apps |
| kb9vqf | we could do that with probably a few hundred lines of code or less |
| MutantTurkey | yeah good thinking |
| kb9vqf | but why? |
| kb9vqf | it takes effort to design a good systray app |
| MutantTurkey | if its not useful, then we shouldn't do it. |
| kb9vqf | right |
| kb9vqf | IMO that's what the taskbar is for ;-) |
| MutantTurkey | I do think a certain amount of "new" stuff is good in a release! |
| kb9vqf | of course! |
| kb9vqf | but let's make it good new stuff |
| kb9vqf | not rehashing old ideas |
| MutantTurkey | indeed |
| kb9vqf | something sorely lacking is the equivalent of the Windows display control center |
| kb9vqf | that does not exist under ANY linux DE AFAIK |
| Xu_R | when you mean display control center |
| MutantTurkey | display control? |
| Xu_R | you're talking like the drivers, screen resolution? |
| MutantTurkey | I mean xfce has it |
| kb9vqf | really? |
| kb9vqf | cool |
| MutantTurkey | hold up |
| kb9vqf | hng on |
| MutantTurkey | let me get a screen |
| MutantTurkey | http://imagebin.org/164847 |
| MutantTurkey | I don't know how it handles multiple monitors or anything ( i don't know much about how it works, and only have one screen) |
| Xu_R | I'm thinking kb9vqf means more like options that you can only find by modifying Xorg.conf...? |
| MutantTurkey | Xorg.conf doesn't exist anymore doesi t? |
| MutantTurkey | I know at least archlinux dropped it by default... |
| Xu_R | it's dropped by default, but you can still use it (Xorg.conf.d) and sometimes autoconfiguration doesn't work well |
| Xu_R | I know it's one reason that openSUSE went to work on making SaX3 (xorg config tool) |
| MutantTurkey | and doesn't kde4 have a decent one? |

| kb9vqf | BUT |

| kb9vqf | and all indications are it still works from this end |
| kb9vqf | so I'm wondering if my ISP is actually having the problem ATM |

| MutantTurkey | I hated P4's |
| MutantTurkey | but they were good workhorses |
| MutantTurkey | ran hot as hell |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| kb9vqf | the bad old days! |
| MutantTurkey | the bad old days |
| MutantTurkey | now I have a slick atom :) |
| kb9vqf | which can't do very much IIRC |
| kb9vqf | hmmm |
| kb9vqf | maybe those were the good old days :) |
| MutantTurkey | they do absolutely nothing :) |
| MutantTurkey | but nothing@12W@20C... |
| MutantTurkey | the computer paid itself off in power savings two years |
| kb9vqf | ah, but what services did you have to pay for to replace the lost functionality? |
| MutantTurkey | ? |
| MutantTurkey | GAH BENT PIN :[ Processor is now useles.. ._. |
| Xu_R | back |
| kb9vqf | for example if you were building software you would now have to pay for an external build service, etc. |
| Xu_R | checking the keyservers |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| Xu_R | keyservers working |
| kb9vqf | great |
| kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Any chance you could set your VPS to check the status of the primary Trinity services (keyserver, etc.) and send an Email to me if they are down |
| kb9vqf | in an automated way? |
| kb9vqf | That would be a GREAT help |
| kb9vqf | or even poke me privately on IRC, but that is probably more complex |
| Xu_R | that sounds like pinging each of your subdomains... |
| kb9vqf | ping won't work |
| kb9vqf | but if you can telnet to 80 on my two IP addressess then everything is OK |
| kb9vqf | I can write the status check software if you want |
| kb9vqf | it would probably be in bash though |
| kb9vqf | the problem is I have no way of knowing if external access to either IP is actually working |
| kb9vqf | e.g. this recent problem still allowed internally generated traffic through (!??!?) |
| Xu_R | o_o |
| kb9vqf | I really wish Internet service in the USA was more reliable :-/ |
| kb9vqf | No one wants to spend money to make it so |
| Xu_R | :-\ |
| MutantTurkey | hmmm seems complicated |
| MutantTurkey | if you want to just write a script that I can cron |
| MutantTurkey | it would be good |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | I'll see what I can do |
| kb9vqf | I just have no way of knowing if something is inaccessible until someone mentions it right now |
| kb9vqf | which is not a good way to handle the site |
| MutantTurkey | I agree. |
| MutantTurkey | I could have my vps check hourly, and send you an automated phone call or something? |
| MutantTurkey | because if the website goes down, how can we reach you? |
| MutantTurkey | I guess on the irc also would work |
| kb9vqf | email usually stays up |
| kb9vqf | if email is down then I have automated checks that let me know anayway |
| kb9vqf | *anyway |
| kb9vqf | can I just use the mail command on your VPS? |
| kb9vqf | or is that not configured? |
| MutantTurkey | not configured unfortunately :| |
| MutantTurkey | I haven't bothered to set anything up, I don't know how complicated it is |
| kb9vqf | oh |
| kb9vqf | see nullmailer |
| MutantTurkey | I have dinner right now, and my girlfriend will be over. hopefully I can hop on tonight |
| kb9vqf | sure |
| MutantTurkey | Assume mail command does wokr. |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| MutantTurkey | I will get it up and going |

| grand_grunt | Hi! :) |
| *** Space_Man has quit IRC |
| grand_grunt | I think I found a bug: when lauching kolourpaint (from trinity), then opening and editing a file from a sshfs mount, then closing kolourpaint, then umounting sshfs, at next launch kolourpaint stays stalled. |
| grand_grunt | strace shows that it tries to access the last opened file. |
| *** affect is now known as afkt |
| grand_grunt | also, sshs was "unmounted" an ugly way, bash is also stalled when trying to ls it. But it is less obvious to guess where the trouble comes from when launching kolourpaint. |
| MutantTurkey | grand_grunt: hey |
| MutantTurkey | can you file that bug report? |
| grand_grunt | Yep, sure. |
| MutantTurkey | that's really easier for us |
| MutantTurkey | that way we don't loose track of bugs :) |
| grand_grunt | Was talking here first in case someone would say "corrected in latest version" or "already filled in 4 times" |
| MutantTurkey | grand_grunt: what version are you running? |
| MutantTurkey | It might not occur. |
| MutantTurkey | just file the bug report that way we deal with it :) |
| MutantTurkey | but i've gotta go! good luck with the bug and thanks for reporting it! |
| grand_grunt | versions: http://pastebin.com/f18zXNGy |
| grand_grunt | I must insist that sshfs was in ugly state, thinking twice. But used to it for direct access ("ok, stalled because I broke the ssh session"), not for a bare launching of kolourpaint. |
| MutantTurkey | once you report it, one of use running the SVN version can check to replicate the error, it might have beenfixed already |
| grand_grunt | Here it is: http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=488 |
| tbottu | 04Bug 488: minor, P5, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, kolourpaint, okular (maybe others) are frozen by defuncted SSHFS mount. |
| Xu_R | kb9vqf: are you doing nightly builds for squeeze? |
| *** MutantTurkey has quit IRC |
| grand_grunt | http://pix.toile-libre.org/upload/original/1311639437.png <= wanted to share this with you :) |
| grand_grunt | good night, kind developpers. |
| Xu_R | lol |
| grand_grunt | BTW, servers for Trinity repository seems to be lagging sometimes. I own two 100Mb/s servers, can do mirrors if this may help. Just query me, will se later. going to sleep. |
| kb9vqf | Xu_R: Not yet for Squeeze; Natty isn't even fully built yet |
| Xu_R | kb9vqf: which has nightly builds? because if squeeze doesn't I would like to be able to have one with nightly builds |
| kb9vqf | Maverick is fully built |
| kb9vqf | Natty is next (in process) |
| kb9vqf | then Squeeze, then (maybe) Unstable\ |

| kb9vqf | apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net |

| Xu_R | it works here |
| kb9vqf | hmmm |
| kb9vqf | I may have to move that function to the other IP address |
| * kb9vqf does not look forward to that |
| Xu_R | doesn't sound fun. |
| *** Borg^Queen has quit IRC |
| Xu_R | kb9vqf: you said you were doing builds for natty... mind if I have a link to what you have so far? (because I accidentally installed Natty instead of Maverick) |

| hazridi | So, I noticed knetworkmanager seems to fail at connecting to an AP using WPA1/AES, while it connects fine to an AP that is advertising WPA2 support |
| kb9vqf | hazridi: That is a useful bit of information |
| kb9vqf | Can you please verify that the gnome network manager successfully connects to the WPA1/AES AP? |
| kb9vqf | if so a bug report may need to be filed against knetworkmanager |
| hazridi | not gnome, no |
| hazridi | but cnetworkmanager worked fine |
| hazridi | (cli network manager client) |
| hazridi | how hard is it to build trinity components on squeeze? if I can use apt for the source I could take a look at it |
| kb9vqf | hazridi: It shouldn't be too hard |
| kb9vqf | use the Maverick repository |
| kb9vqf | or wait a few weeks for the Squeeze nightly builds to start |

| *** K`zan has joined #trinity-desktop |
| kb9vqf | l0ner: Pull Qt3 from GIT again and retry your build |
| kb9vqf | A patch snuck in that should not have been included, as it is Debian specific |

| kb9vqf | I will manually put them into Patchwork |
| kb9vqf | send them as individual attachments |
| kb9vqf | on one Email message |
| kb9vqf | your Email program was inserting line breaks into the patch text, which made the patches completely unusable |
| kb9vqf | I would like to get them in to kdebase BEFORE I do the multi-distro rebuild |

| Xu_R | (you can always pull from build.opensuse.org too) |
| Xu_R | kb9vqf: when are you going to do the multi-distro rebuild? |
| kb9vqf | working on starting it now...but only up to kdelibs |
| kb9vqf | I only want the patches that are not already in SVN ;-) |
| kb9vqf | so if you could pre-filter them for me it would be a great help |

| l0ner | damn my laptop is overheating |
| kb9vqf | qt3 compilation can be nasty |
| kb9vqf | try slowing down your CPU |
| l0ner | already did |
| kb9vqf | ohh |
| kb9vqf | blow out the dust from the CPU fan vent with a high pressure air source ;-) |
| l0ner | theorically the pcu should slow down by itself |
| l0ner | did this morning |
| kb9vqf | up to a point |
| kb9vqf | what CPU is it? |
| l0ner | intel i3 m350 |
| kb9vqf | ah |
| l0ner | but it's samsung laptop |
| *** Sanne has joined #trinity-desktop |
| l0ner | and this is the main problem |
| kb9vqf | with an undersized fan no doubt |
| kb9vqf | fan/heatsink |
| l0ner | yeah |
| kb9vqf | usually putting the CPU on max power saving will keep it running |
| kb9vqf | either that or use ctrl+z to suspend the compilation |
| kb9vqf | then run 'fg' to resume it when the CPU is cool enough |
| l0ner | and some obscure functions in bios for power management |
| l0ner | this is what i've been doing |
| kb9vqf | ah, OK |
| kb9vqf | I can't help much then :) |
| l0ner | but i got distracted, temp went up and laptop shut down |
| kb9vqf | uggh |
| kb9vqf | you do know we have Qt3 for Maverick and Natty in the nightly builds.... |
| kb9vqf | not sure which distro you are on |
| l0ner | gentoo |
| kb9vqf | that won't help then! |
| l0ner | i tried ubuntu |
| l0ner | i just can't get over with dependencies, bloatware, and how binary distros forces things on me |
| l0ner | after you tried one time gentoo, you are long gone |
| l0ner | you will never return to binary |
| kb9vqf | well, when you have a fleet of computers to maintain binaries sound quite good ;-) |
| l0ner | you bet |
| l0ner | whoah! that was unexpected. |
| l0ner | I'm beginning to wonder if my cpu reports it's temp right... |
| l0ner | paused compilation and temp went instantly from 86C to 60C |
| l0ner | how can I access the trinity eherpad? wanted to take a look on cmake porting status |
| -Xu_R- Attention: Meeting in #trinity-desktop-meeting at 1900 EDT (that would be 25 minutes from now) |
| grand_grunt | kb9vqf: Does the trinity project have enough servers with enough bandwidth? |
| kb9vqf | grand_grunt: so far, as far as I can tell, yes, BUT if you want to be a mirror we'd be glad to have you |
| kb9vqf | all you need is a server with enough monthly bandwidth to handle file transfers daily |
| kb9vqf | i.e. no cap |
| kb9vqf | no monthly transfer cap, and no residential connections |
| kb9vqf | unless you are lucky enough to have fiber in your area ;-) |

| kb9vqf | just make me a list... :) |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: I think patches, SVN, andRoadmap can go into it. |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | send along those suggestions in the Email :) |

| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: also is that news system I setup working ok? |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | it's great! |
| MutantTurkey | excellent. |
| MutantTurkey | I knew it would be, simple and easy! |
| kb9vqf | when natty nightly builds are done there will be a new new entry... |
| kb9vqf | *news |
| MutantTurkey | yep |
| MutantTurkey | I also am looking into using your quickbuilds for archlinux. In fact it's often quite easy to convert packages to different distros |
| MutantTurkey | that might save me a lot of trouble, building and packaging wise |
| kb9vqf | sounds good to me |
| kb9vqf | if you manage to automate the conversion process let me know |
| kb9vqf | and I will autogenerate the Arch packages |
| kb9vqf | with your automated scripts |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: ok that would be cool. |
| MutantTurkey | you could also just build them regularly. |
| MutantTurkey | all you need is our package manager installed (not managing, just installed) I think you could just do that. |
| kb9vqf | what format are your packages? |
| Xu_R | which makes me wonder - kb9vqf - when we move to git, will we have hooks set up? I can just have the hooks call a rebuild of any packages |
| kb9vqf | .deb, .rpm? |
| kb9vqf | yes, hooks will be available |
| MutantTurkey | pkg.tar.{gz,bzip2,bzip,xz} |
| kb9vqf | hmm |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| Xu_R | great - all I need is an API call to api.o.o. |
| MutantTurkey | its a custom one :) |
| kb9vqf | I can't easily do release updates with that as QuickBuild can't understand it, but I can provide nightly / automated builds and let you pick and choose the release package set |
| kb9vqf | not sure yet |
| MutantTurkey | right we can talk later. |
| MutantTurkey | also, could you send me current php page from the website? they are all post-processed so it's not good to use |
| MutantTurkey | wait... maybe if i just use one that isn't using any formatting it'll be ok. |
| MutantTurkey | nevermind! |
| MutantTurkey | Actually, I probably need one emailed to me :P |
| kb9vqf | I can add the PHP stuff |
| kb9vqf | headers/footers |
| kb9vqf | I just need the body :) |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: ok I will send just the body portion |
| MutantTurkey | also: http://ekaia.org/blog/2011/02/07/post-and-pre-release-fun/ |
| MutantTurkey | that notes that "One of the goals for wheezy is remove completely KDE 3 and Qt 3. " |
| MutantTurkey | wheezy is debian 7 |
| kb9vqf | nice :-P |
| kb9vqf | I'll be providing Qt3 anyway |
| kb9vqf | Qt4 is NOT a replacement for certain workloads |
| kb9vqf | and I would hate for people to stop using Debian or Linux |
| kb9vqf | just because Qt4 is a bloated unstable piece of garbage sometimes |
| MutantTurkey | yes I feel the same way about gtk3 (which is even worse that 2.x...) |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf:other than links, do we need anything else? |
| kb9vqf | stopped using GTK as soon as the tools became steaming piles of trash |
| kb9vqf | the graphical dev tools that is |
| kb9vqf | when the icons in buttons start overlapping on the text with no way to fix it...well.... |
| MutantTurkey | I never have worked with the graphical dev tools (didn't even realized they existed) |
| MutantTurkey | I am only using them for simple applications anyhow |
| kb9vqf | A quick description of the development tools and mailing list might be nice, but other than that for now the links alone are OK |
| kb9vqf | Yes, they exist(ed) |
| Xu_R | and they're crap |
| kb9vqf | but rapidly became a mess |
| MutantTurkey | yeah |
| MutantTurkey | Xu_R: I actually like gtk for small things. |
| MutantTurkey | I am neither a qt or gtk guy though |
| kb9vqf | I use Qt4 for small things |
| MutantTurkey | I prefer good old ncurses :) |
| kb9vqf | that are unlikely to grow |
| Xu_R | :P |
| kb9vqf | basically only for single-purpose apps that should never be expected to blend in with any DE :) |
| MutantTurkey | yes |
| MutantTurkey | should i link to git.trinity or scm.trinity |
| kb9vqf | git.trinity |
| MutantTurkey | ok |
| MutantTurkey | Xu_R: lol did you see the picture at my work today? slowest shift ever. |

| HardDisk_WP | i'm one of the LiMux developers of the city of Munich |
| HardDisk_WP | we're using Trinity 3.5.12 and have a problem |
| HardDisk_WP | when you right-click on the Home tab of the side bar, the contextmenu opens only if you click on the top ("Home") entry |
| HardDisk_WP | when you right-click on the subdirectories, nothing happens |
| HardDisk_WP | the other tabs (bookmarks) are not affected by this problem, right-clicking works there |
| HardDisk_WP | any idea? |
| Space_Man | HardDisk_WP: I'm not a Trinity developer, I'm only a user |
| Space_Man | but I do remember there was some discussion of a bug that affected Konqueror |
| Space_Man | the mouse right click did not work on the directories in the left hand column |
| Space_Man | I think it was fixed a few months ago by samellian |
| Space_Man | look in the git repo :P |
| Space_Man | or ask on the mailing list |

| slackware_user | Hi! is it possible to install trinity on debian sid? |
| MutantTurkey | slackware_user: not on slackware? |
| MutantTurkey | :P |
| MutantTurkey | yes it is possible! |
| slackware_user | ) |
| slackware_user | where to get build scripts or something? |
| MutantTurkey | we provided packages |
| slackware_user | for SID? |
| MutantTurkey | maybe not |
| MutantTurkey | isn't sid stable now? |
| slackware_user | sid always unstable |
| MutantTurkey | oh :x |
| slackware_user | so it may be worth to make buildscripts or something |
| MutantTurkey | maybe try our packages though |
| MutantTurkey | it may work |
| MutantTurkey | http://trinitydesktop.org/installation.php |
| MutantTurkey | there are squeeze packages |
| eldowan | it works great on squeeze! |
| slackware_user | i try to install them now |
| MutantTurkey | :) |
| slackware_user | broken packages... |
| slackware_user | unmet dependencies |
| slackware_user | is it possible to publish build scripts for debian? |
| MutantTurkey | yes. |
| MutantTurkey | well for the scripts, you could ask kb9vqf |
| kb9vqf | debian build files are in our GIT tree |
| kb9vqf | but be forewarned we currently have gcc4.6 issues |
| kb9vqf | these are being solved now |
| slackware_user | ок. |
| MutantTurkey | :) |
| slackware_user | scripts are for svn or for releases? |
| kb9vqf | you might want to use the Ubuntu Maverick build files for now |
| kb9vqf | they are just the debian directories for each source folder in SVN |
| kb9vqf | you have to copy the appropriate debian directory to the appropriate SVN source folder |
| kb9vqf | then run dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot |
| kb9vqf | in each source folder |
| kb9vqf | this is automated on my systems, but tightly integrated with QuickBuild |
| kb9vqf | so my scripts would be of no use to you |
| kb9vqf | but the debian/ folders in GIT are universal |
| slackware_user | ok. i ll try |
| slackware_user | what's url of git repo? |
| kb9vqf | hang on |
| kb9vqf | |
| kb9vqf | git clone http://scm.trinitydesktop.org/scm/git/tde-packaging |
| kb9vqf | the debian/* build folder will only work with 3.5.12 |
| slackware_user | thanx |
| kb9vqf | the ubuntu/maverick/* build folder will only work with SVN |
| kb9vqf | Just keep that in mind :) |
| slackware_user | ok. i ll first try to build 3.5.12 |
| kb9vqf | yes, updates are planned, currently in the middle of a Natty build that is draining the build system resources quite badly |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| slackware_user | btw how soon can be released 3.6? |
| *** raevyn has joined #trinity-desktop |
| kb9vqf | not sure yet |
| kb9vqf | we're waiting on bugfixes |
| kb9vqf | so it really depends on how complex they end up being |
| slackware_user | ok |
| kb9vqf | I'd like to see 3.5.13 released in the late fall 2001 |
| kb9vqf | 2011 rather |
| raevyn | Hello. Does anyone know why Pidgen wont run in Trinity? |
| kb9vqf | probably an issue with the Trinity file picker |
| slackware_user | btw.. after clone debian folder contains 2 folders which are empty |
| kb9vqf | yes...hmmm.... |
| kb9vqf | never uploaded Debian to GIT I guess :-/ |
| slackware_user | ) |
| kb9vqf | you can use the ubuntu/maverick_automake folder to build 3.5.12 |
| raevyn | file picker? |
| raevyn | is there a way to fix it? |
| kb9vqf | raevyn: Try this |
| kb9vqf | go to a terminal and run |
| slackware_user | 2 folders with .gitignore |
| raevyn | k |
| kb9vqf | LD_PRELOAD= pidgin |
| kb9vqf | slackware_user: ubuntu/maverick_automake is not empty on my end |
| raevyn | that works! just typing pidgin gives a segmentation fault |
| kb9vqf | raevyn: Then there is definitely a problem with the file picker |
| kb9vqf | any chance you can get a backtrace with GDB and create a bug report? |
| kb9vqf | so that it can be fixed in 3.5.13? |
| slackware_user | ubuntu/maverick isnt empty |
| raevyn | :( Im sorry.. if i was walked through I could |
| kb9vqf | that's ok |
| kb9vqf | I can do the same thing eventually |
| kb9vqf | just create a bug report for now, unless one already exists |
| kb9vqf | slackware_user: See http://git.trinitydesktop.org/viewgit/index.php?a=tree&p=Trinity%20Desktop%20Environment%20Packaging&h=5b9d7093413631b6975997955bef919545eca795&hb=e9b162a733491b74bd7d56edd9f1314f83a8c571 |
| raevyn | okay |
| kb9vqf | you must have an incomplete checkout |
| raevyn | oh it has bugs reported i guess.. though nothing about using ldpreload |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | it's a temporary fix |
| kb9vqf | it works by disabling the file picker |
| raevyn | <nod> bummer.. i cant make a menu item for it that way |
| kb9vqf | sure |
| kb9vqf | don't worry, I consider this a major/blocker bug |
| raevyn | oh yay! i like pidgin WAY more than empathy |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| kb9vqf | It's not just pidgin |
| kb9vqf | audacity also crashes |
| kb9vqf | and a handful of other GTK apps |
| raevyn | ohh.. is it specific gtk apps? |
| slackware_user | maybe its due to sound system? |
| raevyn | i am finding an oddity that maybe is realted? |
| kb9vqf | it is something with the file picker handling on certain GTK apps |
| kb9vqf | probably the Trinity file picker does not implement a certain GTK call |
| kb9vqf | the backtrace should show that quickly |
| kb9vqf | (working on grabbing one now) |
| raevyn | Oh.. then it probably isnt. Graphics on GTK apps seems to like.. disapear at times. buttons and menus items until hovered over |
| kb9vqf | that's probably the Qt3 integration |
| slackware_user | building qt3 first? |
| kb9vqf | which is a separate module altogether |
| kb9vqf | slackware_user: Yes |
| kb9vqf | do that from our GIT tree |
| slackware_user | fails at clean... |
| MutantTurkey | slackware_user: our tree |
| kb9vqf | the main Qt3 branch is in the main GIT tree under main/dependencies/qt3 |
| kb9vqf | it contains a debian/ folder already |
| kb9vqf | IIRC |
| slackware_user | ok ill try |
| *** eldowan is now known as eldowan|afk |
| raevyn | so will the new release still operate and look like ti does now? |
| MutantTurkey | raevyn: yes |
| raevyn | what will the new release have? O! will it have touch functionatlity? |
| kb9vqf | if Xorg supports it.... |
| kb9vqf | but if you want an actual "touch" OS use KDE4 |
| kb9vqf | it's designed for that |
| kb9vqf | or Windows 8 |
| kb9vqf | Trinity is going to stay a mouse+keyboard driven DE |
| *** K`zan has quit IRC |
| kb9vqf | lots of good alternatives for a touch driven DE |
| *** K`zan has joined #trinity-desktop |
| raevyn | ah okay. so the way it looks and runs now will stay, but bugs and such willl be fixed? |
| slackware_user | libavahi-qt3-dev missing on sid |
| slackware_user | where to get qt3-trinity for debian ? |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | have to build libavahi-qt3-dev then from source... |
| slackware_user | are there build scripts for these packages? |
| kb9vqf | not sure |
| kb9vqf | look in debian for them |
| kb9vqf | that is, in the last debian release |
| kb9vqf | packages.debian.org |
| slackware_user | it seems that in sid that packsage was moved to repo at debian-ports.org |
| slackware_user | and there is no package for both amd64 and x86 |

| calvin | wow |
| calvin | kb9vqf: I am trying out kde 4.6 for first time |
| calvin | just with irssi open it is using 600mb ram! |
| calvin | its terribly slow. |
| kb9vqf | oh nice~ |
| kb9vqf | :-P |
| calvin | I will admit it looks very pretty, but its lagging oddly bad. |
| kb9vqf | looks nice but is unusable for work |
| kb9vqf | sounds familiar |
| *** calvin is now known as MutantTurkey |
| MutantTurkey | seems as if its indexing stuff in the backgroun alot. |
| MutantTurkey | my cpu is spliking randomly |
| kb9vqf | yes, that's probably nepomuk |
| MutantTurkey | yes |
| MutantTurkey | whatever that is. |
| kb9vqf | something that cannot be turned off as an index is now somehow integral to a desktop environment (!???) |
| kb9vqf | yuck |
| MutantTurkey | i never used indexing |
| kb9vqf | only indexer I used was Google Desktop Search |
| kb9vqf | which, oddly enough, never ate my CPU or RAM! |
| MutantTurkey | hurm |
| kb9vqf | (it is smart enough to know when a user is active) |
| MutantTurkey | this is terrible. |
| MutantTurkey | it has a nice feel but even the menus and desktop are unusable. |
| MutantTurkey | anyway I gotta split. just thought i'd say that. |
| kb9vqf | nice feel? |
| kb9vqf | I though feel was influenced by usability ;-0 |
| * Xu_R notes that kde 4.7 was released today |
| * Xu_R also notes that kdePIM 4.6+ is still largely unusable |
| * Strangelv_ remembers integrated indexing and search. Ties up CPU and fills up all that pesky unused disk space? |
| kb9vqf | No no...as the KDE4 devs would say it "Utilizes unused system resources to fulfill a needed function" |
| kb9vqf | :-P |
| Xu_R | XD |
| * kb9vqf wouldn't use Nepomuk if it was the only indexer on the planet |
| kb9vqf | Fortuantely it isn't, and I think every alternative is better :-P |
| Xu_R | blehh... and I still can't believe that we need MySQL for a desktop. |
| kb9vqf | we don't |
| Xu_R | exactly! |
| Xu_R | tell the kde4 devs that |
| kb9vqf | Amarok uses it IIRC, but that is because people have music collections of thousands of tracks these days |
| Xu_R | which is a good reason |
| Xu_R | but for the rest of the desktop... sqlite seems so much better to me... |
| kb9vqf | Amarok can use SQLite too |
| kb9vqf | in fact I guess it does so by default |
| kb9vqf | :eek: tornado watch + warnings near my location |
| kb9vqf | not good |
| Xu_R | kb9vqf: stay safe |

| Xu_R | MutantTurkey: what distro are you trying kde4 on? |
| MutantTurkey | I just like the idea of embedding windows in my desktop - I have actually started implemenations of ideas for that |
| MutantTurkey | Xu_R: arch. |
| MutantTurkey | I had mockups for embedding windows in the root window, enver got anywhere. |
| Xu_R | ah. I've always used kde4 on suse - and for some reason I can run it smoothly on 512 mb, so it got to be less of a problem than I thought |
| MutantTurkey | I dunno... I have 530 ram usage right now. |
| MutantTurkey | and only irssi is open |
| Xu_R | damn. |
| MutantTurkey | on xfce its like 150mb |

| Z_God | kb9vqf: I haven't seen any installation instructions yet for a fresh install of Trinity on Natty, would that still be useful? I could provide them if so, it's almost the same as installing fresh on Maverick. |
| kb9vqf | I'm actually building Natty packages now, so you might want to wait a bit and make sure your instructions work with the new packages |
| kb9vqf | I can let you know when they are available for testing |
| Z_God | cool :) |
| Z_God | actually I just installed the maverick packages, but I also had to add the maverick universe and maverick-updates main repository to get all the dependencies satisfied |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| Z_God | I also wonder if you are considering a 3.5.12 release for ubuntu lucid |
| kb9vqf | not sure yet |
| Z_God | most of the systems and people I support run Ubuntu Lucid with Trinity, so it would have a big impact for me ;) |
| kb9vqf | gotcha |
| kb9vqf | I'll see how practical that is |
| Z_God | ok, what kind of problems could be there? |
| Z_God | the current systems are quite stable though |
| Z_God | especially when people use only trinity (which is almost always) |
| kb9vqf | basically old/outdated libraries |
| kb9vqf | hopefully that won't be too much of an issue |
| Z_God | ok |
| kb9vqf | then there is the fact that builds take a few days of computer cluster time |
| kb9vqf | which uses a lot of $$$$ worth of power |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| kb9vqf | (by bulids I mean new builds for a new distribution) |
| kb9vqf | basically a full rebuild |
| Z_God | ok, an incremental upgrade doesn't make sense? |
| kb9vqf | You can't just do an incremental build |
| Z_God | I remember in the olden days some distros would only update kdelibs for example and then later some packages |
| kb9vqf | To add 3.5.12 or 3.5.13 to a distribution you need a full rebuild |
| Z_God | I'd have konqueror 2.2.1 on kde 2.2.2 for a while |
| Z_God | ok |
| kb9vqf | it's not good practice |
| kb9vqf | it can itroduce many subtle bugs |
| kb9vqf | *introduce |
| kb9vqf | especially if compiler versions have changed |
| kb9vqf | (which they have under Ubuntu post-release) |
| Z_God | significantly? |
| kb9vqf | even a minor version bump can cause problems |
| kb9vqf | as I said subtle and hard to trace problems :) |
| Z_God | I'd say that's a bug in the compiler though... |
| kb9vqf | not really |
| Z_God | but yeah I can imagine you'd rather do a full recompile then |
| kb9vqf | compatibility is not guaranteed across compiler versions |
| kb9vqf | not to mention if kdelibs has one class change, the entire suite must be rebuilt |
| kb9vqf | we have a more agressive change policy on Trinity than on KDE3 |
| kb9vqf | to make sure that the desktop stays up to date |
| Z_God | I don't fully understand why it wouldn't be ABI compatible, but I know very little about this |
| kb9vqf | (not for user visible elements, just for backend stuff) |
| kb9vqf | In 99% of cases there would be no problem |
| kb9vqf | but then I get bugs reported for the other 1% |
| kb9vqf | and they are very hard to trace |
| kb9vqf | Better safe than sorry IMO |
| Z_God | yep, I understand |
| Z_God | do you know what would be needed for the bluetooth support btw? |
| Z_God | I'm running blueman now in trinity which does a pretty much perfect job |
| kb9vqf | great |

| mutantturkey | kb9vqf: did you import the qt3 patch you reported as a bug in the tracker? |
| kb9vqf | bug number? |
| mutantturkey | bug 484 |
| tbottu | 04Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=484 enhancement, P5, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, Qt3 needs patching to build under ARM |
| * kb9vqf goes to check |
| kb9vqf | mutantturkey: Yes |
| mutantturkey | okay Ill mark as fixed |
| Xu_R | kb9vqf: question - do you have a working sudo-trinity for maverick in nightly builds? |
| kb9vqf | did you check the build dependencies PPA? |
| Xu_R | yup |
| Xu_R | I only have a sudo-kde3 |
| kb9vqf | ohh...oops :) |
| kb9vqf | I'll correct that as soon as I can |
| kb9vqf | the build farm's a bit busy right now chewing on koffice |
| Xu_R | ok :P I can't install my nightly build on maverick until I have that XP |
| Xu_R | ewww, koffice |
| mutantturkey | LibreOffice just released 3.4.2 |
| kb9vqf | odd; it let me install kdelbs/kdebase without it |
| Xu_R | kb9vqf: I know... it's all installable w/o sudo-trinity >_> |
| Xu_R | only ran into that when I tried to install kdpkg-trinity, which wants sudo-trinity |
| kb9vqf | yes, that makes sense |
| kb9vqf | poke me tomorrow about it :) |
| kb9vqf | too busy today |
| Xu_R | ok |
| kb9vqf | I can't believe how many "programmers" thought code was OK that now throws this |
| kb9vqf | error: for a function-style cast, remove the redundant '::QPen' |
| kb9vqf | :-P |
| mutantturkey | kb9vqf: low quality control, thats how they release so fast. |
| kb9vqf | it would never occur to me to write code like this TQString::TQString("Hi!") |
| kb9vqf | oh well |
| mutantturkey | and release cylces are speeding up. |
| kb9vqf | so that's the excuse for Windows 8? :-) |
| mutantturkey | KDE3 was in functionality for quite a while. KDE4 is already at 4.8... 5 is in planning stages |
| kb9vqf | and it's still a bloated unusable pile of garbage |
| kb9vqf | nice |
| mutantturkey | or at least qt5 is in planning by nokia |
| mutantturkey | yeah basically. |
| mutantturkey | honestly, I think windows is doing some good with 8. |
| mutantturkey | It is at least standardizing and forcing them to use open technologies |
| Xu_R | have you seen Meego? |
| mutantturkey | because then all windows apps will run on all platforms |
| kb9vqf | inferior tech nonetheless |
| kb9vqf | even if it is open |
| mutantturkey | kb9vqf: obviously. but either way Idon't use windows |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| Xu_R | people say everything is good if it's open-source. it's not good if it's open-source + crap :P |
| mutantturkey | Xu_R: but the open source model is superioir |
| mutantturkey | to the closed source |
| mutantturkey | in most cases. |
| kb9vqf | KDE4 is proving you wrong |
| kb9vqf | ;) |
| Xu_R | true - but the quality of the software is something to think about XD |
| mutantturkey | kb9vqf: now imagine if KDE4 was closed source. it would be 50x worse |
| kb9vqf | yes, I know, I know |
| kb9vqf | it seems that the worst traits of both models are on display lately |
| Xu_R | I wish Nokia didn't scrap Meego for Windows Phone... >_> |
| kb9vqf | I know |
| Xu_R | because people hate Windows Phone but love Meego |
| Xu_R | and yet it's dead on arrival to stores |
| mutantturkey | I like the windows phone... |
| mutantturkey | The interface is actually clean and intuitive. |
| mutantturkey | compared to apple and android |
| mutantturkey | I really need a clean interface, and a really well integrated one (which is one thing i hate about linux...) |
| kb9vqf | evil thought...M$ probably thinks that the desktop is disappearing and they want to write their apps once and have them work on both the software-as-a-service Web stuff and their "desktop OS" |
| Xu_R | xD |
| kb9vqf | hence the emphasis on web technologies |
| Xu_R | desktop OS... there's no way I'm moving to windows 8 |
| * kb9vqf will never EVER rent space on other people's mainframes |
| kb9vqf | too great a liklihood the other party makes your vital data inacecssable at some point |
| mutantturkey | i dont trust the cloud. |
| kb9vqf | s/mainframes/software-as-a-service cloud/g ;) |
| kb9vqf | this is all old tech |
| kb9vqf | old ideas |
| mutantturkey | anyway |
| kb9vqf | back on topic? ;-) |
| Xu_R | maybe ;P |
| mutantturkey | back on topic? I am really annoyed with the fact that I can't get kde3 working and I don't have time to work on it. I am debating about installing debian in a chroot just to work with it |
| kb9vqf | Xu_R: How are your spec files coming |
| kb9vqf | mutantturkey: Which distribution do you use? |
| Xu_R | kb9vqf: working on it, may run builds locally soon, but not right this second. still a mess xP |
| mutantturkey | Arch... |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | understandable |
| mutantturkey | I don't want to compromise either way. |
| mutantturkey | i want arch + trinity. :P |
| mutantturkey | wish david was still around. He actually understands building on arch |
| kb9vqf | try the mailing list |
| kb9vqf | sometimes people take breaks |
| kb9vqf | it's healthy to do so :) |
| mutantturkey | good thinking |
| mutantturkey | I need to take a good stab at it. |
| mutantturkey | I am hoping a night this week I can sit down with a few hours and work |
| destroyfx | I'm thinking about making Trinity ebuild for Funtoo and Gentoo |
| mutantturkey | destroyfx: that would be sweet |
| Xu_R | samelian was working on that with kde-sunset, I think? |
| mutantturkey | we have a trinity packaging repo |
| *** jumpship has joined #trinity-desktop |
| mutantturkey | destroyfx: git clone http://scm.trinitydesktop.org/scm/git/tde-packaging if you are intrested |
| mutantturkey | I don't think we have any for gentoo now. so someone working on it would be cool |
| destroyfx | what tde-packaging? |
| mutantturkey | it's where we keep all our build scripts for distros |
| kb9vqf | it contains all distribution-specific packaging files, ready to be copied into the vanilla Trinity source |
| destroyfx | For kde-sunset, I hear that the ebuild was planed but are actually canceled. Only KDE 3.5.10 are present |
| kb9vqf | yes, they suggested using a new ebuild |
| destroyfx | ah, ok :p I will chack that this evening |
| destroyfx | I just made some patch for KDE 3.5.10 in kde-submit... Because of some ::Stupid(error) preventing some packages to compile in GCC 4.5 |
| kb9vqf | there are a number of gcc4.5/gcc4.6 fixes in the Trinity SVN |
| kb9vqf | http://www.trinitydesktop.org/patches/ |
| destroyfx | yeah, I read that. But I will need to make a ton of ebuilds first prior to use |
| kb9vqf | sure |
| kb9vqf | just wanted to let you know they were there |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| jumpship | Is anyone using Debian Squeeze with trinity and have KDE4 installed to use some of the KDE4 programs? |
| kb9vqf | I have some experience with KDE4 installed alongside Trinity under Ubuntu |
| jumpship | I don't wanna break trinity, so I've been trying to hold off with some programs, is the stable pkgs of trinity pretty safe with KDE4 alongside? |
| *** destroyfx has quit IRC |
| mutantturkey | kb9vqf: I see a commit revision (r1242480) saying that everything has been completely moved to .trinity and /etc/trinity? |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| kb9vqf | the old kde3 prefix is now dropped |
| kb9vqf | otherwise it's just too confusing |
| kb9vqf | depending on which distribution you use it could be ~/.kde, ~/.kde3, or ~/.trinity |
| kb9vqf | a simple 'mv ~/.kde3 ~/.trinity' will work |
| kb9vqf | I will probably have to detect the .kde3 directory for a while still |
| kb9vqf | in startkde |
| kb9vqf | but all new installs will put the profile in ~/.trinity |
| mutantturkey | maybe a migration script |
| mutantturkey | when 3.5.13 is released |
| kb9vqf | probably |
| mutantturkey | might be easier to leave it up to users |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| mutantturkey | so what about bugs like 459? |
| kb9vqf | Trinity still obeys KDEHOME |
| kb9vqf | bug 459? |
| tbottu | 04Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=459 blocker, P1, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, Detecting $KDEHOME to avoid conflicts with KDE3 and KDE4 |
| kb9vqf | ah |
| mutantturkey | does KDE4 use $KDEHOME also? |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | I thought that bug was fixed |
| kb9vqf | hmmm |
| mutantturkey | It might be, I was just browsing |
| kb9vqf | startkde should search in this order: ~/.trinity, ~/.kde3, ~/.kde |
| kb9vqf | and should only create ~/.trinity |
| mutantturkey | so what about this situation: |
| kb9vqf | in fact, IMHO, it shouldn't even look for ~/.kde |
| mutantturkey | someone has kde4 previously, so .kde is there , then they install trinity, then what? |
| kb9vqf | see above :) |
| mutantturkey | but they don't have .trinity on first run. |
| kb9vqf | right |
| kb9vqf | startkde should search in this order: ~/.trinity, ~/.kde3 |
| kb9vqf | and ignore ~/.kde |
| mutantturkey | Agreed. |
| kb9vqf | if ~/.trinity and ~/.kde3 don't exist then it should create ~/.trinity |
| kb9vqf | s/and/or/g |
| mutantturkey | that sounds valid |
| mutantturkey | eventually.. very distant future drop .kde3 |
| kb9vqf | right |
| kb9vqf | but at this point NEVER EVER create a ~/.kde3 directory :) |
| kb9vqf | I haven't looked in startkde recently |
| kb9vqf | so I don't know how much of that logic is already in place |
| kb9vqf | I know some of it is |
| kb9vqf | but not all of it |
| mutantturkey | okay |
| mutantturkey | should I mark that bug with anything? |
| kb9vqf | it must block KDE 3.5.13 |
| kb9vqf | and you might want to append the logic described above |
| kb9vqf | regarding searching |
| kb9vqf | Oh, this is fun: on Natty, how do you like this library path location: /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libdbus-1.so |
| kb9vqf | ick ick ick |
| mutantturkey | why! |
| mutantturkey | thats terrible |
| mutantturkey | ubuntu is moving farther away from linux every release. |
| mutantturkey | and is completely devoid of the unix philosophy |
| kb9vqf | I have no idea |
| kb9vqf | All I can say is YUCK |
| kb9vqf | that's even worse than the lib/ vs lib64/ stuff |
| kb9vqf | fortunately it only broke k9copy |
| kb9vqf | and I think I fixed that |
| Xu_R | o_o |
| mutantturkey | i know. |
| mutantturkey | well /lib32/ i am okay with. |
| mutantturkey | because Arch has a really simple way to setup 32bit on 64bit machines |
| kb9vqf | yes, but there should still be a symlink from /lib to /lib32 then |
| kb9vqf | or /lib64 depending on the machine architecture |
| mutantturkey | it's just an extra repo, and that's it. |
| mutantturkey | kb9vqf: yep |

| destroyfx | it's okay if I repackage all the file in .bz2 format and if I put the correct directory name. exemple, when I unpack kdelibs-3.5.12.tar.gz, I must get the kdelibs-3.5.12 folder instead of a plain kdelibs folder |

| raevyn | thank you! |
| kb9vqf | np |
| raevyn | oh i might.. i was going to ask, when i loaded kde 3 on my machine, i already loaded kde 4 and now, my menu is goofy. is there a way to reset my menu? |
| kb9vqf | menu is goofy? |
| kb9vqf | how so? |
| kb9vqf | screenshots may help here :) |
| raevyn | okay well, if i log in as another user, the menu will show what app is kde 3 and kde 4, such as the control panel. but in mine it doesnt so some items start with the kde4 interface rather than 3 |
| raevyn | oh okay.. i will try to get screenshots tonight for you :) |
| raevyn | Im at work right now so I can chat but not really do anything too intensive |
| raevyn | How would i install the build? Im not super savvy in linux yet so I used your instructions to get it on Ubuntu 10.10. |
| * Xu_R nudges at kb9vqf for missing sudo-trinity in the nightlys |
| kb9vqf | Xu_R: It was uploaded last night to the nightly build dependencies |
| Xu_R | ok - checking now |
| kb9vqf | raevyn: First I would back up your machine ;-) |
| kb9vqf | Then you can swap out the nightly build repository deb and deb-src lines in your /etc/apt/sources.list file |
| kb9vqf | hmmm...on second thought, there are missing metapackages in that repository ATM |
| kb9vqf | so you can't really upgrade |
| raevyn | :) always good practice. |
| raevyn | oh.. well then.. i guess i will wait :P |
| kb9vqf | sorry |
| kb9vqf | new installs are OK |
| kb9vqf | upgrades need metapackages that are not yet uploaded |
| * kb9vqf forgot about that since he installed Trinity from scratch on his development machines |
| * Xu_R is about to do the kde3 -> trinity deadly upgrade from stable -> nightly XD |
| Xu_R | kb9vqf: I don't see sudo-trinity still D: |
| raevyn | is that disc that is made with trinity Ubuntu, just no gnome? I would like to have the hardware checking and easy software installation of ubuntu but use TDE is all |
| Xu_R | strange. I see it right on mirror.tokra.lv... |

| kb9vqf | also, DO NOT TRY TO UPGRADE A SYSTEM THAT HAS ANY *-kde3 packages INSTALLED ON IT |
| kb9vqf | install from a clean Maverick/Natty installation ONLY |
| kb9vqf | metapackages will be available to migrate from the -kde3 package suffix as the release date nears |
| kb9vqf | but not yet :) |
| Xu_R | kb9vqf: bit too late, I did the upgrade... :-\ |
| kb9vqf | well, now I don't know where your problems are coming from :-\ |
| Xu_R | D: |
| kb9vqf | could be the code, could be old -kde3 packages |
| kb9vqf | you will have to manually purge all -kde3 packages |
| Xu_R | oh, I already purged all the -kde3 packages |
| kb9vqf | the kdesudo thing sounds irritating |
| Xu_R | it is D: |
| kb9vqf | knetworkmanager sounds like a kde3/trinity change |
| kb9vqf | that is, it broke in the move from .kde3 and /etc/kde3 to .trinity and //etc/trinity |
| kb9vqf | why is networkmanager upstream missing VPN support??? |
| Xu_R | it probably is... but mind you, for some reason the -trinity packages are still using my .kde3 settings |
| Xu_R | no, i'm saying knetworkmanager is not working with the VPN support |
| Xu_R | (did I mistype that? O_O) |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| Xu_R | yikes |
| Xu_R | lemme fix that |
| Xu_R | there... |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | anything else to add to the list of bad news? |

| Necrosporus | And I'm not sure, if KDE4 is still not as good as 3.5 |
| Necrosporus | There was a security bugs in Konqueror, is it fixed in Trinity? |

| Strangelv__ | "Have the bug reports been enterede into TDE's bug tracker? |
| Necrosporus | I do not know, I just read, there was a vulnerability of SSL certificate checking if it contain null symbols |
| Necrosporus | It was discovered after release of 3.5.10, if I remember it correctly |
| TokRa | IMHO, KDE4 is good enough except Plasma and its sick addiction to mysql based akonadi |
| * TokRa uses Gnome2 as DE, KDE3.Kmail and KDE3.Kate for mails and code editing, KDE4.Konqueror as file manager |
| TokRa | Gnome is not customisable enough :( |
| kb9vqf | we have many CVE updates from after 3.5.10 in our codebase |
| kb9vqf | as long as it was patched on at least one major distro (such as RedHat) we likely have the patches already in place |
| kb9vqf | a link to the CVE or upstream bug always helps ;-) |
| kb9vqf | also, if xfce is powerful enough for you, stick with it |
| kb9vqf | Trinity is here for those who find xfce too limiting |
| kb9vqf | KDE4 too bloated |
| kb9vqf | and Gnome 3 too limited |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| kb9vqf | that should be 'and Gnome 3 too childish' |

| Necrosporus | I have used KDE 3.5.9 for a year, because of Slackware 12.1, however, times changed, I bought a netbook, and installed ubuntu 10.04 on it |
| Necrosporus | So, I stick mostly with gnome2, at first I found it too limited of configuration, but adapted somehow later |
| TokRa | Unity is especially designed for kids and mentally challenged adults |

| Necrosporus | What's the main difference, beside, the side panel is visible only in menu mode? |
| aalecs | gnome sucks. the only thing good in gnome is gdm |
| Revan199 | gedit? file-roller? |
| Revan199 | brasero? |
| aalecs | xarchiver, mucommander, xfburn.. |
| Revan199 | gedit not a FM |
| Revan199 | it is a text editor |
| aalecs | geany then |
| aalecs | i know what gedit is |
| Space_Man | gparted? |
| Revan199 | gedit is better for text than Geany, of course |
| aalecs | uh, that is ok, but we also have qtparted |
| Revan199 | it is a really good text editor |
| aalecs | Revan199: if you tweak geany, it has a lot of good stuff |
| Revan199 | aalecs: I don't need an IDE then I edit a plain text |
| aalecs | Revan199: leafpad then. |
| Revan199 | and I don't need to not use gedit |
| Revan199 | aalecs: gedit better %) |
| Space_Man | sadly qtparted is not available for kubuntu 9.10 |
| aalecs | Space_Man: pack it then. build your own deb |
| aalecs | Revan199: mousepad then :D |
| Revan199 | aalecs: ? |
| Space_Man | hopefully in the next day or two I will be updating to something a bit newer |
| aalecs | sincerily, the best de are xfce and kde |
| aalecs | gnome is a sucko.. |
| aalecs | Revan199: mousepad is the text editor in xfce |
| Revan199 | aalecs: but that don't mean that every program in GNOME sucks? |
| aalecs | nope, not all programs. but as a de gnome sucks :D and i just hate the fact that all the dumbasses started using linux, and distros like fedora... |
| aalecs | where has lfs gone |
| aalecs | debian netinstall.. slack.. where |
| Revan199 | my debootstrap'd ubuntu don't have DE |
| aalecs | cool. why did u choose ubuntu and not debian ? |
| Revan199 | aalecs: I'm switched FROM debian to ubuntu :-D |
| aalecs | ok, but why ? |
| Revan199 | PPA? |
| aalecs | i'm on altlinux here |
| aalecs | but also use debian and centos |
| Revan199 | ALTLinux? why not Agilia? |
| Revan199 | AgiliaLinux is a nice distro =) |
| Revan199 | but I don't think that ALT is nice too |
| aalecs | well, i'm on alt since 2004 |
| aalecs | better said, i`m on alt since it was a mdk fork |
| Revan199 | well, my first distro is... Debian |
| aalecs | my first was rh 6.0 |
| Revan199 | heh |
| aalecs | and after that slack, mdk and a lot others |
| aalecs | but mainly alt now |
| aalecs | and debian/others as virtual stuff, vbox, xen, openvz |
| Revan199 | when I tried ALT I thought that it is a big pack of crap |
| aalecs | why ? |
| Revan199 | aalecs: whell... I don't remember why (my memory... %)) |
| aalecs | well, i don't think it's crap |
| aalecs | :) |
| Revan199 | =) |
| Revan199 | I remember that updating from 4 to 5 removed all files |
| aalecs | ure joking :)) |
| Revan199 | xarchiver not better than file-roller %) |
| Revan199 | aalecs: no |
| Revan199 | I don't |

| Xu_R | kb9vqf: Just realized - there's no native polkit dialog for trinity... |
| Xu_R | so if I launched an application that needed polkit, it would fail because of no native dialog D: |
| kb9vqf | polkit? |
| Xu_R | polkit = PolicyKit |
| Xu_R | (example - Ubuntu Software Center) |
| kb9vqf | hmmm...for now I would just install some other policykit dialog |
| kb9vqf | e.g. the gnome one |
| kb9vqf | since Trinity doesn't use policykit at all |
| Xu_R | I have the GNOME one, however polkit refuses to invoke it on Trinity |
| Xu_R | I put XFCE on the same VM to see - polkit works there, so I'm not sure why polkit is refusing |
| kb9vqf | do you get any console messages? |
| * kb9vqf notes that the Qt3 version of a policykit dialog is here https://gitorious.org/policykit-kde |
| kb9vqf | Qt4 rather |
| Xu_R | hmm |
| Xu_R | console messages: |
| Xu_R | damnit, i didn't install vbox additions |
| Xu_R | going to have to type it up |
| Xu_R | softwarecenter.backend - WARNING - _on_trans_error: org.freedesktop.PolicyKit.Error.Failed: ('system-bus-name', {'name': ':1.32'}): org.debian.apt.install-or-remove-packages |
| * kb9vqf is guessing that the daemon that monitors DBUS doesn't start automaticallly under Trinity |
| kb9vqf | that is a stupid design IMHO |
| Xu_R | polkit is stupid because not everyone uses it >_> so in the end, it's another flaw |
| kb9vqf | let's see...we'll just have YET ANOTHER BACKGROUND PROCESS running 24/7 in case someone wants to...launch with administrative privileges??? |
| kb9vqf | :-P |
| Xu_R | XD |
| Xu_R | ughhh |
| Xu_R | update-manager |
| Xu_R | it now uses polkit |
| Xu_R | and guess what? it just fails silently (not even console messages) |

| kb9vqf | all services should be up |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| kb9vqf | isn't it stupid? |
| Xu_R | sigh. |
| kb9vqf | what in the world was wrong with sudo? |
| Xu_R | nothing, which makes this even more crazy |
| kb9vqf | Ubuntu only? |
| Xu_R | because sudo can do the same exact thing with fine-grained privileges |
| ar | kb9vqf: nothing, except it's not flexible |
| Xu_R | uhh... probably not just Ubuntu |
| kb9vqf | so polkit is actually better? |
| Xu_R | depends how you look at it |
| * kb9vqf doesn't like things running in the background |
| Xu_R | I see polkit and sudo the same in the end, just polkit is fancier -_-" |
| ar | kb9vqf: you either give a user "user ALL=(ALL) ALL" or end up with dozens of sudoers rules |
| kb9vqf | right... |
| kb9vqf | does polkit have a configuration GUI? |
| Xu_R | debian, fedora, and probably some other distributions will run into these polkit problems, AFAIK because they use tools with polkit now |
| Xu_R | uhhh... polkit gui? used to be, I dunno now |
| ar | and afair the point of polkit was that only a part of an app could get elevated privileges, which isn't the case with sudo |
| Xu_R | ar: makes me wonder what happened with gksu-polkit development |
| kb9vqf | part of an app? |
| kb9vqf | now that seems just ridiculous to me |
| Xu_R | kb9vqf: it's like running synaptic not as root |
| kb9vqf | now we have who knows how many dangling security holes resulting from slicing off part of an app |
| Xu_R | but then when you hit apply it asks for root permissions to do just that |
| kb9vqf | so it is more of a temporal elevation? |
| Xu_R | yes |
| kb9vqf | that is the entire app gets root access for a small amount of time |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | that makes more sense |
| kb9vqf | personally I say use some other GUI frontend to polkit |
| kb9vqf | there is no need to have the Trinity widget styles |
| kb9vqf | for a stupid password box :) |
| Xu_R | xD except that stupid password box won't launch under trinity |
| Xu_R | >_> |
| kb9vqf | of course |
| kb9vqf | the question is why |
| kb9vqf | and whose problem is it? |
| kb9vqf | ours? |
| kb9vqf | or is polkit detecting KDE3 and not launching? |
| Xu_R | I think polkit is detecting KDE3 and not launching... |
| kb9vqf | then that's not our problem |
| kb9vqf | :-P |
| kb9vqf | next question: can it be fooled into thinking it is running under Gnome/XFCE/etc |
| Xu_R | I don't know... |
| kb9vqf | feel like figuring that out for me? :) |
| * Xu_R goes to google |
| kb9vqf | hehe |
| kb9vqf | the odd thing is that it worked under Maverick |
| kb9vqf | I got the ugly Gnome popup when I lauched Synaptic |

| Xu_R | the binary controlling this: '/usr/lib/policykit-1-gnome/polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1 |

| kb9vqf | well, that is definitely a problem |
| kb9vqf | I hate that design |

| kb9vqf | so we'll need a /ETC/XDG/AUTOSTART/POLKIT-TRINITY-AUTHENTICATION-AGENT-1.DESKTOP with nearly identical contents that depends on the package including /ETC/XDG/AUTOSTART/POLKIT-GNOME-AUTHENTICATION-AGENT-1.DESKTOP |
| kb9vqf | :-P |
| Xu_R | yea |

| Xu_R | nope, TDE doesn't work |
| Xu_R | o_O |
| Xu_R | KDE doesn't work either... |
| Xu_R | kb9vqf: is Trinity reading /etc/xdg/autostart? |
| kb9vqf | it *should* |
| kb9vqf | try it without the OnlyShowIn just for fun |
| kb9vqf | barring that, you could try creating an entry in /opt/trinity/etc/xdg/autostart/ |
| Xu_R | without the OnlyShowIn it works |
| Xu_R | o_o" |
| kb9vqf | hmmm |
| kb9vqf | OnlyShowIn=KDE3? |
| kb9vqf | if that works then something old snuck through |
| Xu_R | dum dum dum. |
| Xu_R | no, KDE3 doesn't work |
| Xu_R | o_o" |
| kb9vqf | huh |
| * kb9vqf goes to look at kdebase |
| Xu_R | something slipped through... >_>" |
| kb9vqf | Well it is supposed to be OnlyShowIn=KDE; |
| kb9vqf | Xu_R: Is there a NotShowIn field? |
| Xu_R | no |
| Xu_R | hmm... interesting, because adept notifier is also in /etc/xdg/autostart and it has OnlyShowIn=KDE; |
| Xu_R | I'm going to try again with KDE |

| KingSphinx | Sorry, actually just thought I'd drop by this channel to give a few words of praise, for lack of a better term, to this project for having the guts to maintain the former incarnation of KDE. Bravo! |
| KingSphinx | To be honest, I never used KDE until... 4.2, I think? I have no hard feelings against the Plasma Desktop, but 3.x just feels... right, you know? Anyhoo, if I'm bothering anyone, sorry... |
| kb9vqf | no, not bothering us at all :) |
| kb9vqf | we like it when users stop by to tell us they like what we are doing |
| kb9vqf | and in your case especially we can point to someone who had no predjudice against KDE4 (since KDE4 was your first experience with KDE), which means that the KDE3 style is still superior for some percentage of new Linux users :) |
| kb9vqf | thanks for going out of your way to let us know you like the project! |
| KingSphinx | I really don't understand why they felt the need to drop Kicker entirely, it was ported to Qt4 and everything, but droppped in alpha IIRC. It would've been nice for them to have left it as an optional component or something. :/ |
| KingSphinx | However, Trinity's indirectly responsible for my migration to Fedora (broke Compiz and my display driver with it) |
| kb9vqf | I don't think it was fully ported |
| kb9vqf | Qt4 was too limited to handle the "old" Kicker internals |
| KingSphinx | It was fine until I tried to experiment with Compiz though, so I harbor no ill will towards it. |
| kb9vqf | use fusion-icon |
| kb9vqf | and Ubuntu itself is....ehmm...unstable when it comes to Compiz |
| kb9vqf | regardless of the DE you use |
| kb9vqf | the only time I have been able to keep Compiz on is with an older Intel card on an IBM laptop |
| KingSphinx | Seems Intel hardware is the most reliable when it comes to just about anything Linux-related... |
| * KingSphinx has a Broadcom wireless chip that Ubuntu doesn't support out-of-box |
| KingSphinx | That's actually not a good thing for me, since I kind of have to jump through hoops to get it running in *buntu, and sadly, if I wanted to install Trinity again (made a CD so I can revisit it), I don't think I could get my wireless working even with the instructions provided by the Ubuntu wiki because I'm not sure if Trinity provides the tools required. Bleh, that was a mouthful. |

| ar | (and no, i don't live in the usa) |
| KingSphinx | I really think the rating decrease seems kinda overdue... I mean, really? A nation that's untold trillions in debt and it has perfect credit? |
| * kb9vqf agrees with KingSphinx |
| KingSphinx | oh yeah! A question I've been meaning to ask: with the planned ports to RPM-based systems, will each distro retain its own artwork/theme or will it just be the "generic" KDE 3 look? |
| kb9vqf | debt to GDP ratio is just too high |
| kb9vqf | Xu_R might know |
| kb9vqf | it depends on whether or not the distro maintainer(s) will pull in the original KDE3.5 theming from the distribution or not |
| kb9vqf | I did with Ubuntu, but then again there have been several cycles since then, so the current artwork looks nothing like the original artwork ;-) |
| kb9vqf | *release cycles |
| KingSphinx | I think Fedora still has the Qt3 port of Bluecurve in its repos, and lol, I've noticed. |
| KingSphinx | Hardy looked excellent, but it seems from 8.10 onward, Kubuntu just opted to use the "generic" themeing. |
| kb9vqf | hmmm...8.10 sounds like the point at which my releases started |
| kb9vqf | you must not have had the theming packages installed |
| kb9vqf | for reference, here's how the Ubuntu releases look now: http://apt.pearsoncomputing.net/cdimages/ |
| KingSphinx | Interesting... Enterprise Edition seems to vaguely resemble Windows XP (possibly on purpose?) |
| KingSphinx | Desktop Edition seems to pretty much look like Hardy with a new wallpaper. Not a bad thing though, it looks great IMO. |
| KingSphinx | Just what does Enterprise have that Desktop lacks? Additional apps/drivers? |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| kb9vqf | loads of apps |
| kb9vqf | more drivers |
| kb9vqf | and a cleaner, tighter widget style and theme |
| kb9vqf | more along the lines of what you expect in a corporate environment |

| KingSphinx | Maube, but I'm not sure, I haven't had Trinity in a while. (it's not available for Fedora, nor does it seem likely in the forseeable future.) |
| KingSphinx | *maybe |
| raevyn | what if i moved the files i am missing from the virtual machine directory into the main system directory? |
| raevyn | okay i copied kdf over and now it does run appearing with the kde3 theming rather than kde4.. so maybe that is all i have to do? |

| raevyn | hello im back. i had to restart. |
| raevyn | so, i confirmed with another VM that indeed the enterprise version of TDE comes with more software. |
| raevyn | But I have some concerns... Ubuntu was great at hardware detection and has a good software repo... so first off is the Trinity DVD incorporate thsoe ubuntu traits? And, I would like to still keep gnome or install it after installing Trinity Enterprise.. can I still do that? |
| raevyn | oh you know, no on is here lol. I will try back on Monday |
| *** raevyn has quit IRC |
| Xu_R | KingSphinx: uhhh... standard FHS, Fedora policy, etc? |

| l0ner | Hi |
| elcaset__ | hello howdy |
| l0ner | anyone here from who i could get some help with compiling (or rather non-compiling) parts of trinity? |
| elcaset__ | I am not experienced enough to help with compiling, but I bet someone here ios. |
| elcaset__ | oops, here is. |
| l0ner | kb9vqf should be able to help |
| l0ner | but it seems he's away |
| elcaset__ | i tried Porteus GNU/Linux with Trinity pre-installed. i like it, so far. |
| l0ner | I used the Ubuntu-based trinity distro |
| l0ner | but it was ubuntu, which is too blated for me |
| l0ner | normally I use gentoo |
| l0ner | which I can configure any way I want |
| KingSphinx | The only other version of Trinity available that I know of is Slackware, so... there's a Gentoo version? |
| l0ner | no, there is overlay but it sucks |
| KingSphinx | the kde-sunset overlay? |
| l0ner | so I pulled trinity code from svn and I'm trying to compile it maually |
| l0ner | no the kde-trinity |
| KingSphinx | Wouldn't know about compiling something as big as Trinity, sorry. |
| l0ner | it's not in the main overlay list |
| l0ner | kay, I'll wait |
| * KingSphinx has never used a Linux distro more complex than Fedora... |
| l0ner | well, the gentoo is not complex |
| l0ner | but You'll need to learn how it handles some aspects |
| KingSphinx | I'm perfectly aware of DIY stuff like that, I just prefer the "noobier" stuff like Ubuntu/Fedora/Debian |
| l0ner | I prefered it years ago |
| l0ner | then I noticed it was too heavy for me, and too bloated |
| l0ner | so I moved directly from ubuntu tu gentoo |
| KingSphinx | Ah |
| KingSphinx | Nice |
| l0ner | and didn't had many problems |
| KingSphinx | Nothing wrong with that, though I still prefer my choices. :P |
| l0ner | the handbook is pretty clear on how to install it |
| KingSphinx | USE flags seem very cool though. |
| l0ner | yeah, I know ;) It's the "different distro for every user" rule :P |
| l0ner | I even thought about doing it hardcore way, using the LFS |
| l0ner | but it's a little too much for me :P |
| KingSphinx | I might have to migrate back to Kubuntu Trinity, since it now seems unlikely that Trinity can be properly ported to Fedora (something about packages not being allowed to be installed in /opt...?) |
| l0ner | dunno, never used Fedora. But I had read about it in the channels history |
| l0ner | it seems pretty pointless blocking the /opt dir, which existence was to allow user install external thing he needed |
| l0ner | at least it's what i had been told years ago |
| KingSphinx | I know, but there's not much I can really do. But... I found my old Google Chrome install in /opt, and it was an RPM package, so maybe... hmm... |
| l0ner | maybe they don't allow thing installed by user, |
| l0ner | not by the repo system or things like that |
| l0ner | or maybe it was there before they introduced this "nothing in /opt" rule and there is nothing that would delete it |
| * l0ner thinks about getting some sleep |
| l0ner | well... bbl |

| KingSphinx | It's only in development, but... this technically means Trinity's now two generations out-of-date. Dunno whether to laugh of feel depressed... |
| KingSphinx | *or |
| elcaset__ | some folks over at the PCLOS irc are trying to convince me that KDE Trinity has no hope. There is some hope, right? |
| Space_Man | yes there is still lots of life in Trinity |
| elcaset__ | awesome!. thanks Space_Man. |
| Space_Man | has Qt5 even been announced? |
| elcaset__ | it's in the works, but i don't know beyond that. |
| Space_Man | a blogpost about qt5 http://labs.qt.nokia.com/2011/05/09/thoughts-about-qt-5/ |
| elcaset__ | there were qt5 discussions supposedly at that KDE gathering in Europe that occured in the last 3 months. |
| Space_Man | "beta quality code available towards the end of the year and final Qt 5.0 release some time during 2012." |
| Space_Man | Tim has written "TQt" which bridges qt3 and qt4 |
| KingSphinx | A question about TQt: is it supposed to be a fork of the old Qt3 or is it something like a bridge for Qt4? |
| Space_Man | it used the best bits from both :P |
| KingSphinx | Oh, nvm, saw above |
| Space_Man | I'm 100% certain of the details |
| *** HardDisk_WP has quit IRC |
| KingSphinx | Will there eventually be bits from Qt5? |
| *** HardDisk_WP has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Xu_R | KingSphinx: yes, there will. but we have to get to Qt4 first :P |
| Xu_R | time to download the latest nightly build for my xubuntu and see the SVN changes :D |
| * KingSphinx feels lost amongst all the programmers... (cannot program anything to save my life) |
| Xu_R | well, I only know basic C++ programming |
| Xu_R | that I learned last year... >_>" |
| KingSphinx | I barely know HTML... ^^; |
| Xu_R | I'm learning Java next year. Wish me luck, because Java is hell xD |

| Xu_R | but checking xsession-errors, it looks like everything is working... |
| Xu_R | oh, god, I want to punch Upstart in the face so badly right now... |
| * KingSphinx notes that this is why I'm not brave enough to use nightly builds |

| kb9vqf | Xu_R: Nightly builds were suspended a few days ago due to old packages not being purge from the archive |
| kb9vqf | The problem has been resolved and builds are restarting |
| * kb9vqf whispers ethereal wisps of a new feature, long absent from Linux http://websvn.kde.org/?view=revision&revision=1245566 |
| kb9vqf | For those who think Trinity has no future, bear in mind that we maintain Qt3 as upstream |
| kb9vqf | Since Qt3 was absorbed, you could think of Trinity as a pure Xlib desktop ;-) |
| kb9vqf | also, since TQt porting is complete, it would be theoretically possible to move Qt3 to the new TQ* namespace, thus eliminating any potential conflicts with Qt4 |
| kb9vqf | this could be done independently of the Trinity desktop project |
| kb9vqf | Qt4 is a shifting target (still!) and has significant performance issues |
| kb9vqf | not all the problems with KDE4 are due to the KDE4 developers.... |
| KingSphinx | I really don't get why there's people that say "Trinity has no future"; last I checked, as long as a project has demand and developers still active, it has a future. </opinion> |

| KingSphinx | About the whole "Trinity-decoupling-from-Ubuntu" thing: the Kubuntu wiki says that Trinity's moved to a yearly schedule. Does this mean that the next release will likely be released as 11.10 or is this more of a "when it's done" sort of thing? |
| kb9vqf | when it's done |
| kb9vqf | probably on a yearly schedule |
| kb9vqf | 6mos is too short |
| KingSphinx | I imagine so, especially given the relative size of the project compared to, say, current KDE |
| KingSphinx | With the instructions given on the site, however, it is possible to stay current? |
| KingSphinx | Also, completely unrelated, but it really is impressive how lightweight 3.x is... just saw a video of someone running 3.5.10 very well on a Pentium 4 and only 1 GB of RAM :) |
| kb9vqf | we are building Natty packages now |
| kb9vqf | there won't be this long hiatus in the future |
| kb9vqf | our build system broke when Natty was released |
| kb9vqf | due to Autotools changes |
| kb9vqf | it took quite some time to get those problems fixed |
| kb9vqf | IMHO the desktop *should* be that light :) |
| kb9vqf | believe it or not, on powerful, modern hardware, Trinity still feels a bit sluggish at times when used at very high screen resolutions |
| KingSphinx | Just for curiosity's sake (sorry, I love asking questions), it'll pretty much by Natty, but still 3.5.12? |
| KingSphinx | 1280x1024's not that high, is it? |
| kb9vqf | no |
| kb9vqf | try 1080 ;-) |
| kb9vqf | try 3840x1080 ;-) |
| kb9vqf | what do you mean "by natty"? |
| KingSphinx | Wow |
| * kb9vqf thinks KDE4 would be especially unusable at that resolution |
| KingSphinx | lol, possibly |
| KingSphinx | You'd need one heck of a computer to run it at a decent speed, that's for sure |
| * KingSphinx still ran KDE 4.2 on a 2.4 GHz Pentium 4 and 512 MB of RAM back when 9.04 was around |
| KingSphinx | I still have that old clunker of a computer, just upgraded to 1 GB RAM and GeForce 4 graphics |
| elcaset__ | KDE 4.2 is a lot faster than KDE 4.5 in my usage. |
| KingSphinx | Somehow, KDE 4 ran just as badly after the upgrades. |
| KingSphinx | You know a desktop is bloated when Trinity can beat it running off the CD |
| KingSphinx | To be fair, 4 runs pretty well on my current rig, but Trinity's still ending up on it one way or another. Even if I have to distro-hop back to Kubuntu to do it. |
| * KingSphinx is wondering how exactly one goes about installing a new distro over an old one while keeping your /home partition |
| kb9vqf | a cell phone OS may run very well on a desktop computer, but then why have the desktop computer at all? Just buy another cell phone... :-P |

| kb9vqf | l0ner: Which features? |

| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: ^ |
| MutantTurkey | weird |
| *** MutantTurkey has quit IRC |
| *** MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop |
| MutantTurkey | what i think happened was that kde4 started alongside trinity, and locked everything up. |
| *** KingSphinx has joined #trinity-desktop |
| KingSphinx | I got Trinity installed! :D |
| Xu_R | :D |
| KingSphinx | And managed to keep my /home as well, though getting wireless working with no wired connection was a PITA |
| Xu_R | always is. |
| KingSphinx | Especially with Broadcom cards... |
| MutantTurkey | wireless is a totaly pain if you don't memorize how to do it. |
| MutantTurkey | at this point I have it all memorized. |
| MutantTurkey | dhcpcd is your friend!! |
| l0ner | strange, i had no problem with my broadcom card |
| MutantTurkey | l0ner: about half the people love it, the other half hate it. |
| l0ner | yeah, i know |
| l0ner | problem is, 99% of users are using generic kernel |
| KingSphinx | Fedora didn't have any trouble detecting/using it out-of-box... and *only* Fedora can, I don't know why. |
| l0ner | and need to use strange things |
| MutantTurkey | KingSphinx: haven't tried arch yet then :p |
| Xu_R | or suse :P |
| MutantTurkey | doesn't everyone still mostly self compile kernels? |
| l0ner | maybe because Fedora has precompiled modules for broadcom and ships firmware |
| KingSphinx | Tried SuSE, that doesn't either |
| l0ner | depends |
| Xu_R | strange - I've always gotten SuSE to work for me... /me has strange luck with it |
| l0ner | about what kind of user we are talking? unless you are advanced, you'll use generic kernel |
| l0ner | even on gentoo, where compiling your own kernel is a part of installation, there are some people who prefer the genkernel |
| MutantTurkey | I suqqsaI suppose |
| MutantTurkey | I always have self compiled, out of habit I guess |
| MutantTurkey | plus my kernel is lean and mean |
| l0ner | I have self compiled because i like my kernel minimal and moduleless |
| l0ner | i keep only minimal set of modules, everything else is included in kernel |
| MutantTurkey | indeed |
| MutantTurkey | modules are annoying as heck |
| l0ner | and they slow down bootup |
| MutantTurkey | my hardware is always the same, therefore dynamic loaded modules is ineffiecient |
| l0ner | same for me, sice I'm running linux on my laptop |
| MutantTurkey | exactly |
| kb9vqf | l0ner: Then you must have two versions of Qt3 installed |
| kb9vqf | ours and your distro's stock version |
| kb9vqf | try to locate qstyle |
| kb9vqf | try to 'locate qstyle.h' and see if you have it in multiple header directories |
| l0ner | the problem is: my distro don't ship qt3 anymore |
| KingSphinx | Your distro of choice? |
| l0ner | they stopped something like 2 years ago, when decided to drop kde3.5 |
| l0ner | gentoo |
| KingSphinx | kde-sunset overlay? |
| * Xu_R wonders where samelian went |
| * Xu_R notes that samelian was working on gentoo/kde-sunset IIRC |
| l0ner | i used it, but it sucked, too many bugs, so i purged my system from it |
| l0ner | right now i should have only qt3 from your git |
| * KingSphinx wonders if TDE will get ported to Gentoo... |
| l0ner | i was thinking about it |
| KingSphinx | Also, just my opinion, but while TDE's version of Konqueror makes a great file manager, it's kinda dated as a web browser. |
| l0ner | KingSphinx: never liked konqueror as web browser |
| l0ner | i prefer have them separated |
| KingSphinx | Current version of Konqueror's much-improved, I can say this from experience. |
| l0ner | but it's because of my philosophy: one app for one thing |
| l0ner | KingSphinx: you say? maybe i'll try to give it a shot |
| MutantTurkey | l0ner: i follow that mostly as well. |
| KingSphinx | Quick question: would simply installing ubuntu-restricted-extras do the trick for MP3 codecs and Flash/whatever? |
| KingSphinx | Or does Trinity have its own way of installing proprietary codecs? |
| Xu_R | KingSphinx: ubuntu-restricted-extras is all you need |
| MutantTurkey | guys I am running into a big problem |
| MutantTurkey | first of all kde4 is running alongside trinity, no idea why. |
| MutantTurkey | second of all, I have no idea how it got installed D: |
| KingSphinx | That sounds odd, yet strangely cool. |
| Xu_R | sounds like recommends got pulled in |
| l0ner | ok, I think i found where my problem is |
| MutantTurkey | Xu_R: yeah.. |
| Xu_R | MutantTurkey: try removing any bits of kde4 you have |
| Xu_R | (just remove qt4, it'll pull down the rest of kde4) |
| MutantTurkey | apt-get remove? |
| Xu_R | yea |
| MutantTurkey | it says unable to locate qt4 |
| Xu_R | MutantTurkey: apt-cache search qt4 | less |
| Xu_R | and locate the qt4 libarary |
| Xu_R | *library |
| *** KingSphinx has quit IRC |
| MutantTurkey | anot even there. |
| MutantTurkey | apt is so counter intuitive |
| kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: That happens because Plasma is set to autolaunch at all times |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: what should I do? |
| kb9vqf | Really stupid design decision IMHO |
| kb9vqf | which version of Ubuntu are you on? |
| MutantTurkey | debian |
| kb9vqf | oh |
| kb9vqf | look for the plasma.desktop autostart file |
| kb9vqf | and for now move it somewhere else |
| MutantTurkey | where whould that be? |
| kb9vqf | that will kill KDE4 though |
| kb9vqf | try in /etc/xdg/autostart or similar |
| kb9vqf | I don't recall OTOH |
| MutantTurkey | not there. |
| * Xu_R is pretty sure MutantTurkey doesn't want kde4 anyway XP |
| MutantTurkey | I don't even have kde4 installed afaik |
| kb9vqf | well then move /usr/bin/plasma to /usr/bin/plasma.bkp ;-) |
| kb9vqf | that will completely kill KDE4 :) |
| Xu_R | or remove libqtcore4 |
| Xu_R | (and kill everything >:D) |
| MutantTurkey | ok |
| MutantTurkey | goot call |
| kb9vqf | the /usr/bin/plasma hack will at least let you use KDE4 apps if neede |
| kb9vqf | *needed |
| MutantTurkey | I don't even use kde4.... |
| MutantTurkey | I don't even know how it got here! |
| Xu_R | use aptitude next time ;P |
| kb9vqf | probably through some weird apt recommends chain |
| MutantTurkey | darn |
| MutantTurkey | frankly I don't understand the whole dkpksystem |
| MutantTurkey | and there is terrible lag all of a sudden :[ |
| l0ner | thats why i choose gentoo |
| l0ner | i control what i get in my system |
| l0ner | and i can configure some dependencies through USE flags |
| kb9vqf | to each his own |
| Xu_R | hehe. |
| kb9vqf | in my case gentoo would represent unmanageable administrative overhead :) |
| kb9vqf | so it was worth it to learn dpkg in all its gory detauls |
| kb9vqf | *details |
| MutantTurkey | l0ner: thats why I use arch,... because it doesn't suck with dpepends |
| l0ner | MutantTurkey: from what i heard from my friend who uses arch, they are pretty much the same |
| l0ner | gentoo and arch i mean |
| MutantTurkey | similar |
| MutantTurkey | . |
| MutantTurkey | but not identical |
| MutantTurkey | I think pacman is very sane for package managing. |
| l0ner | maybe some day i will try arch |
| MutantTurkey | alot of people make the switch from gentoo |
| l0ner | i imagine |
| l0ner | since first 4 attempts to install will fail :P |
| MutantTurkey | hahaha |
| l0ner | it was like this for me |
| l0ner | but back then gcc didn't accept CFLAGS="-march=native" |
| l0ner | one i set this wrong, second time i tried to install gentoo without multilib on 64bit system |
| l0ner | back then it was impossible to get working system without multilib |
| l0ner | third time i dont remember, but i think i had some issues with ld |
| l0ner | fourth finally was successful ;) |
| MutantTurkey | that is the greatest thing ever |
| MutantTurkey | -march=native is awesome. |
| l0ner | yeah :) |
| l0ner | it resolved problems with choosing right march |
| MutantTurkey | exactly |
| l0ner | on some strange processors like mine i3 |
| MutantTurkey | atom really benifits |
| MutantTurkey | because its stack is different |
| l0ner | I can imagine ;) |
| * l0ner never had atom based machine though |
| MutantTurkey | I love it |
| MutantTurkey | i mean it pulls like 25W of power |
| MutantTurkey | at max load... |
| l0ner | whoah |
| MutantTurkey | yeah. |
| *** l0ner has left #trinity-desktop |
| kb9vqf | of course it's not much more powerful than a pocket calculator ;-) |
| Xu_R | XD |
| MutantTurkey | basically not :P |
| Xu_R | looks like l0ner abruptly exited... |
| *** l0ner has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Xu_R | wb l0ner |
| l0ner | i accidentally hit ctrl+w |
| MutantTurkey | actually It ranks somewghere really low on the scale |
| Xu_R | oops lol |
| l0ner | which closes current tab in kvirc |
| l0ner | MutantTurkey: my laptop pulls something around 50W on battery |
| MutantTurkey | yeah |
| l0ner | and 25W on ac plugged on |
| l0ner | and i cannot understand why |
| kb9vqf | graphics card |
| kb9vqf | Linux probably does not put it to sleep as it should |
| l0ner | maybe |
| kb9vqf | which graphics card manufacturer |
| kb9vqf | ? |
| l0ner | ati |
| MutantTurkey | also I love the atom because it has great support for linux |
| kb9vqf | yup |
| MutantTurkey | everything runs great. |
| kb9vqf | stinko |
| Xu_R | :P |
| MutantTurkey | only think I dislike is the lack of any processing power... |
| MutantTurkey | also the graphics card is weak |
| MutantTurkey | but the newer versions have improved considerably. |
| kb9vqf | that's how you get low power ;P |
| l0ner | I was monitoring everything with powertop and noticed that acpi is waking up the processor more on battery |
| l0ner | while on ac it isn't |
| kb9vqf | newer kernels should fix that |
| l0ner | i'm using 2.6.39 |
| l0ner | right now |
| kb9vqf | oh |
| kb9vqf | then I have no idea :) |
| MutantTurkey | not 3.0? |
| MutantTurkey | I mean we have 3.0 in our regular core now... |
| l0ner | gentoo don't have it yet in stable |
| kb9vqf | oh wait |
| kb9vqf | http://www.tech-info.com.ar/second-major-power-regression-found-in-linux-kernel-ubuntu/ |
| l0ner | it's masked right now |
| kb9vqf | 2.6.39 is the problem |
| MutantTurkey | arch is like bleeed bleed bleeding edge. |
| l0ner | lol |
| MutantTurkey | I run arch + testing branch. |
| MutantTurkey | but somehow Ihave never had a problem! |
| l0ner | ok, i'll update my kernel when 3.0 hits stable |
| l0ner | i thought it was because my laptop was samsung |
| MutantTurkey | samsung? |
| MutantTurkey | thats the problem |
| MutantTurkey | next time buy a better laptop xD |
| l0ner | and use some obscure thigns for power mngmnt |
| kb9vqf | odd hardware may not have full support from Linux |
| l0ner | i know |
| MutantTurkey | actually I have a few samsung products I really love |
| kb9vqf | also ACPI is sometimes handled by the BIOS |
| l0ner | but i didn't had much choice |
| l0ner | it was a present from my grandfather |
| kb9vqf | so the wakeup events may just increase due to the design of the laptop |
| MutantTurkey | ah |
| MutantTurkey | I have a problem with ext4 |
| kb9vqf | e.g. the BIOS may be monitoring the battery more frequently, etc. |
| MutantTurkey | it won't let me hard drive sleep ever |
| MutantTurkey | it constantly writes back to me |
| l0ner | the only samsung devices i love are their tv |
| MutantTurkey | dumb journaling |
| kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Increase the commit interval and use noatime |
| l0ner | anyway i'll look at my power issues after i managed to install trinity ;D |
| kb9vqf | noatime should do it alone in theory :)( |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: I do... |
| MutantTurkey | and noatime is default |
| MutantTurkey | its the journaling writeback. |
| kb9vqf | no it isn't default |
| MutantTurkey | and even with a 1 minute commit, it's pointless |
| kb9vqf | I know from experience |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: I mean for my systems :) |
| kb9vqf | oh, OK :) |
| MutantTurkey | I need to disable commits while not doing anything, |
| kb9vqf | no, you need to disable writing to disk when not doing anything |
| MutantTurkey | nothing writes to it though |
| MutantTurkey | it's jus the journal every 15 seconds or so |
| kb9vqf | you have a nasty little app somewhere that like to write to the disk |
| kb9vqf | hmm |
| MutantTurkey | nope |
| MutantTurkey | I don't even run logs. |
| kb9vqf | that doesn't sound right |
| kb9vqf | the journal would only be updated if something is written to disk |
| MutantTurkey | I did a bit of research and It seems a few people has this problem |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | sounds weird |
| kb9vqf | on my systems ext4 is great |
| l0ner | kb9vgf: ok, so i found where my problem was, recompiled everyting and now i get this: http://paste.pocoo.org/show/454951/ |
| kb9vqf | ooh, nice |
| kb9vqf | what architecture are you on? |
| l0ner | x86_64 |
| MutantTurkey | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/607560 |
| MutantTurkey | that bug report just goes on and on |
| kb9vqf | l0ner: Sounds like HAVE_SYS_STAT_H is unset |
| kb9vqf | are you compiling with CMake? |
| l0ner | yes |
| l0ner | i followed the wiki |
| kb9vqf | l0ner: Do you have sys/stat.h present on your system? |
| l0ner | kb9vqf: dunno, will look it up now. But i think not |
| kb9vqf | ok, that's your problem |
| kb9vqf | install whatever package provides it |
| kb9vqf | and rerun the entire compilation of kdelibs |
| l0ner | kb9vqf: ok, thx ;) |
| l0ner | will report how it has gone |
| l0ner | kb9vqf: wait, i think i found it in /usr/include/sys/stat.h |
| MutantTurkey | anyway, I've gotta catch the train i'll see you folks later! |

| kb9vqf | l0ner: Ask on the mailing list with your logs |
| kb9vqf | I didn't write the CMake code for that function, and from what I can tell it should be working |

| kb9vqf | where did you send you message to? |

| kb9vqf | which list did you subscribe to? |
| kb9vqf | you need to subscribe to trinity-devel |
| kb9vqf | not trinity-users |
| l0ner | and i subscribed by sending a empty mail to trinity-devel-subscribe@lists.pearsoncomputing.net |

| KingSphinx | Is there any way to get Konqueror to use something besides KHTML or is that beyond the capabilities of this version of Konqueror? |
| kb9vqf | KHTMl is your only option |
| kb9vqf | I know the new one uses Webkit, but the new one is missing so many feature that it is unusable IMHO |
| kb9vqf | kind of like comparing Trinity's Konqueror to the mac file browser |
| kb9vqf | besides, Chrome is faster ;-) |
| KingSphinx | Eh, kinda expected that. The current Konqueror IMO wasn't too bad as a web browser (KHTML's made a ton of steps forward), but it's sort of forgotten how to be a good file manager. Sort of the opposite of this version. :P |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| kb9vqf | so, use two separate apps |
| kb9vqf | let each be best for one thing for now :) |
| KingSphinx | Firefox does the job... plus it can actually save stuff. Chromium at the moment doesn't seem to want to let me save anything; it'll open up Nautilus' save dialog and whatnot, but it's not really saving anything because the download bar's not showing up. |
| KingSphinx | Not to mention Audacity seems to crash with kgtk-qt3 providing the open/save dialogs. |
| *** MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: well I can test bugs now! |
| MutantTurkey | using rdesktop to my vps |
| kb9vqf | great! :) |
| kb9vqf | KingSphinx: I think that crash is fixed in SVN |
| MutantTurkey | so I will be hacking out bugs asap |
| kb9vqf | KingSphinx: if you are using 3.5.12 then I would expect the crash to exist |
| kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: OK |
| kb9vqf | sounds very good |
| MutantTurkey | just trying to strip it down to help it run faster |
| MutantTurkey | over the network |
| MutantTurkey | so disabling stuff right now |
| MutantTurkey | looking back, the motif theme was just patheticly awful |
| MutantTurkey | frankly solaris and CDE all looked like crap... I mean it wasn't even simple it was just bad. |
| MutantTurkey | the themes were horrid |
| KingSphinx | I find a charm in the eye-gouging ugliness of it all. |
| MutantTurkey | KingSphinx: I prefer simple themes, yet i still am unhappy with every one i find |
| MutantTurkey | actually this one I am using now is great |
| KingSphinx | Isn't Trinity's default theme the same one used in Kubuntu Hardy? |
| KingSphinx | Just with a new wallpaper? |
| kb9vqf | yeo |
| kb9vqf | *yep |
| kb9vqf | BTW Trinity contains several simple themes |
| KingSphinx | Yeah, I know, I've gone through them :) |
| kb9vqf | do you like Windows 2000? |
| kb9vqf | thw widget theme that is |
| kb9vqf | *the |
| * kb9vqf can't type...again |
| MutantTurkey | light style 2 is my new fav |
| KingSphinx | I do like the style of Windows Classic (pretty much 95-2000), but not on my Linux partition. :P |
| MutantTurkey | I can't stand the new windows themes |
| MutantTurkey | the old ones I like due to simplicity |
| KingSphinx | It just doesn't look "right" having TDE look like old Windows... |
| kb9vqf | ah |
| kb9vqf | just curious |
| kb9vqf | personally I use Lipstik |
| kb9vqf | it's relatively light and gives lots of information when widgets are hovered upon, etc. |
| MutantTurkey | is bug 229 still valid? It seems this is already included.. |
| tbottu | 04Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=229 normal, P5, ---, kb9vqf, REOPENED, include kickoff menu with trinity |
| kb9vqf | reopened? |
| kb9vqf | why? |
| kb9vqf | It's definitely there :) |
| MutantTurkey | yeah.. |
| MutantTurkey | well robert left some message at the bottom |
| kb9vqf | oh |
| kb9vqf | great |
| kb9vqf | I don't support Kickoff |
| MutantTurkey | :P |
| kb9vqf | if he wants to fix it then he can be my guest :) |
| MutantTurkey | since it stinks... |
| MutantTurkey | its really counter intuitive and requires alot more thought. |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | I hate it |
| kb9vqf | split the bug |
| MutantTurkey | mark as WONTFIX? |
| kb9vqf | create a new one for the Kickoff improvements, copy&paste his text, then mark this one closed |
| MutantTurkey | let me check them first |
| MutantTurkey | maybe an old probelm |
| KingSphinx | That said though (about the Redmond theme), it does do a good job replicating the Windows look. |
| kb9vqf | asteriod is much closer |
| MutantTurkey | redmond does a good job |
| kb9vqf | *asteroid |
| KingSphinx | I think KDE 4.8 might replace Kickoff with something else... |
| MutantTurkey | I can't get past nepomuk |
| MutantTurkey | it just kills me. |
| kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: also make sure the new bug is marked lowest priority |
| kb9vqf | nepomuk STINKS |
| kb9vqf | there are parts of Windows I like |
| MutantTurkey | well most of his stuff works for me... |
| kb9vqf | but only up to Windows XP and the old interface |
| kb9vqf | (not the new "Crayola" one) |
| MutantTurkey | also, whats the state of our khtml? |
| kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Say so in the new bug report |
| kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Just as bad as ever |
| kb9vqf | it's a very low priority here |
| MutantTurkey | yes I assumed so |
| MutantTurkey | we are going to do a -> webkit right? |
| kb9vqf | as we have a handful of good web browsers available |
| KingSphinx | And I'm guessing unlikely to get any better? |
| MutantTurkey | tqt interface to webkit. :P |
| kb9vqf | firefox, chrome, opera, etc. |
| kb9vqf | eventually a KHTML->Webkit transition is planned, but I haven't even started |
| MutantTurkey | I love webkit (i have my own gtk webkit browser) |
| kb9vqf | volunteers are welcome :) |
| kb9vqf | actually as soon as we get completely off the Qt namespace we can integrate Webkit |
| kb9vqf | as the code is TQt ported we are very close |
| kb9vqf | to getting off the Qt namespace that is :)_ |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: looks like his remarks are invalid. |
| MutantTurkey | none seem to apply for me |
| kb9vqf | ok...but that still doesn't make the fact that he posted to a substantially different bug any better :-P |
| MutantTurkey | I am going to close it. |
| kb9vqf | mark it closed, mention that it works for you, and remind him that a new bug report should be filed |
| MutantTurkey | yep |
| kb9vqf | thanks |
| MutantTurkey | just did that exactly |
| kb9vqf | ah, good, you can be trained :)) |
| KingSphinx | (yeah, still talking themes for the moment) Oddly, I find that the older KDE themes (oh-so-creatively titled "KDE 1" and "KDE 2") have a charm to their simplicity... just switched to KDE 2's look/icons. :) |
| MutantTurkey | how do we mark closed? resolved...? |
| kb9vqf | well, that's why I kept them around |
| kb9vqf | they are only a few Kb in size anyway |
| kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Resolved Fixed |
| MutantTurkey | okay all done |
| MutantTurkey | are we going to ever get bugwatch@pearsoncomputing to foreward to the ML? if you care enough |
| MutantTurkey | or if you even wanted to. I know I mentioned it |
| *** KingSphinx has quit IRC |
| kb9vqf | ohhh...oops |
| kb9vqf | I forgot entirely |
| MutantTurkey | :)) |
| kb9vqf | hmmm |
| kb9vqf | I don't even want to think about that right now, but.... |
| * kb9vqf sets a sticky note for himself |
| kb9vqf | not sure if we want to flood the devel list with that stuff |
| kb9vqf | but a new list might be good |
| kb9vqf | trinity-bugs or something |
| MutantTurkey | good call |
| kb9vqf | and maybe one more...trinity-commits |
| kb9vqf | for when we move to GIT |
| MutantTurkey | I think you can do like weekly commit digests |
| * kb9vqf does not know how :P |
| kb9vqf | but that is in the future |
| kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Can you watch for kcrash actually generating a backtrace? |
| MutantTurkey | I haven't had anything crash. |
| kb9vqf | for some reason on my testing machine kcrash always comes up with "invalid backgrace" |
| kb9vqf | *backtrace |
| kb9vqf | and it is good that nothing crashed for you :) |
| MutantTurkey | I need to crash something. |
| kb9vqf | but I just want to make sure kcrash still works |
| kb9vqf | make sure you have the Trinity debug symbols and gdb installed before you try it of course :) |
| MutantTurkey | I probably need to go to bed actually :[ |
| MutantTurkey | which is really annoying because I am so excited I have trinity running! |
| MutantTurkey | its like 3:20am... |
| kb9vqf | so...do you like it so far? |
| MutantTurkey | of course I do! |
| kb9vqf | glad to hear it :)) |
| MutantTurkey | a few minor gripes |
| kb9vqf | file bug reports and fix them :) |
| kb9vqf | j/k ... well ... sort of ... |
| MutantTurkey | well there are plenty of bugs to work with as of now |
| MutantTurkey | I consider my self the bug admin ninja |
| MutantTurkey | I am swooping down on easy to fix ones and knocking them out |
| MutantTurkey | the administrative work of moving bugs and checking them out. leaving the coding to you :D |
| MutantTurkey | I actually tried to dig into kmail and almost passed out. |
| MutantTurkey | I am reading through a dcop vs dbus page now |
| kb9vqf | yeah, kinda nasty isn't it (kmail) |
| kb9vqf | dcop is here to stay BTW |
| MutantTurkey | Its a very large source |
| kb9vqf | it can do things that dbus can't |
| MutantTurkey | really? |
| kb9vqf | and dbus can do things that dcop can't |
| MutantTurkey | hurm |
| kb9vqf | so they need each other |
| MutantTurkey | okay well actually either way I don't care |
| kb9vqf | it's all backend stuff anyway |
| kb9vqf | and dcop has never given me problems |
| MutantTurkey | understood |
| kb9vqf | stay away from kdepim |
| MutantTurkey | scary? |
| kb9vqf | I am probably one of the only people on the planet that understand it |
| MutantTurkey | oh godness |
| MutantTurkey | I am going to stick with easier things then :) |
| kb9vqf | you will be happier :) |
| kb9vqf | fortunately kdepim is quite stable |
| kb9vqf | only a few niggling issues |
| MutantTurkey | my favorite thing about trinity |
| MutantTurkey | is that it is tried and tested of a long period of time |
| MutantTurkey | very stable in that sense |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: what is kio_http? |
| kb9vqf | it is the ioslave used to get http data |
| MutantTurkey | okay |
| kb9vqf | I believe it calls in KHTML to display it |
| MutantTurkey | with gnome3 failing miserably and calls for gnome2 forks, and the upcoming release, its a perfect time to fill the void |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| kb9vqf | which is why I'm not futzing with Qt4 |
| kb9vqf | since we absorbed Qt3 I see no reason to switch at this time |
| MutantTurkey | my hope is to eventually use trinity as my control desktop for my studio |
| kb9vqf | Qt3 has a LOT of life left in it, especially once we get off the Qt namespace |
| MutantTurkey | what is the "Qt namespace" |
| MutantTurkey | I don't get it :P |
| kb9vqf | first some history :) |
| kb9vqf | C/C++ uses symbol lookups to get the correct functions within a dhared library |
| MutantTurkey | KSirc is nice! well much nicer than kivrc. |
| kb9vqf | they look up by name |
| MutantTurkey | right, that is familiar |
| kb9vqf | ksirc is Trinity? |
| MutantTurkey | no idea. somehow i have it. |
| kb9vqf | ah |
| MutantTurkey | I think it must be |
| MutantTurkey | anyway back to Qt namesparce |
| kb9vqf | yes it is |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | basically, Qt3 cannot be compiled in with Qt4 in the same program for one reason alone: |
| kb9vqf | the symbol names would be identical, and the linker would have no idea which version to use |
| kb9vqf | e.g. QWidget::show() |
| kb9vqf | Qt3 or Qt4? |
| kb9vqf | data objects |
| kb9vqf | QWidget: which one? |
| kb9vqf | etc. |
| MutantTurkey | thats terrible |
| kb9vqf | That collection of classes is referred to as a namespace |
| MutantTurkey | right |
| MutantTurkey | so now they all use what instead? |
| kb9vqf | well, not exactly, but I'm saying it is :) |
| kb9vqf | so if we use TQWidget, TQObject, etc. we can have Qt3 and Qt4 coexist perfectly |
| kb9vqf | technically it would then be TQt3 and Qt4 :) |
| kb9vqf | you could say we moved our namespace from Qt to TQt |
| kb9vqf | no more symbol clashes |
| kb9vqf | that also would allow us to use pure Qt4 code where needed |
| kb9vqf | within Trinity |
| kb9vqf | e.g. :drumroll: Webkit! |
| MutantTurkey | but for regular users... no difference |
| MutantTurkey | or while compiling? |
| kb9vqf | exactly |
| kb9vqf | no difference at all, not even when compiling (except that they need to install TQt3, not Qt3) |
| MutantTurkey | so from the other side, the distro ecosystem |
| kb9vqf | but we are paving the way now with Qt3 in our GIT tree |
| MutantTurkey | all they need to do is pull upstream |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| MutantTurkey | (us) |
| MutantTurkey | hrm |
| MutantTurkey | have you talked to any distros yet? |
| kb9vqf | nope |
| kb9vqf | not going to either |
| MutantTurkey | okay |
| kb9vqf | not yet |
| MutantTurkey | understood |
| kb9vqf | as far as I'm concerned if Trinity is the last Qt3 app then we can absorb Qt3 without anyone even caring |
| kb9vqf | then Qt3 just becomes part of kdelibs |
| kb9vqf | so to speak |
| kb9vqf | and Trinity should be treated as a pure X application |
| kb9vqf | as the only hooks lower than Qt3 are to XLib and friends |
| kb9vqf | make sense? |
| kb9vqf | Qt3 still can't be beat for speed |
| MutantTurkey | Qt3 is faster than qt4 assumed |
| kb9vqf | assumed? |
| kb9vqf | try it :) |
| MutantTurkey | I haven't seen benchmarks :P |
| kb9vqf | it is much slower in GFX |
| MutantTurkey | but same goes for gtk1x and gtk2 |
| kb9vqf | partially due to the new double buffering, etc. |
| kb9vqf | (which can't be turned off...grr....) |
| MutantTurkey | annoying |
| kb9vqf | it's a memory pig |
| kb9vqf | the classes are smaller, meaning more code goes into the end application |
| kb9vqf | it's good for many smaller apps, but NOT GOOD for a full desktop IMHO |
| MutantTurkey | everything new is a memory pig |
| MutantTurkey | though kde3 isn't exactly the most conservative :P |
| kb9vqf | and you've seen some of the other fun with the QString to double conversions |
| MutantTurkey | yeah I've seen it. |
| kb9vqf | it's an unstable mess |
| kb9vqf | like I said, great for a lot of apps |
| kb9vqf | but for huge apps it's a royal pain |
| MutantTurkey | i mean, that's something so basic... it should even be a problem. |
| kb9vqf | I know |
| kb9vqf | now figure how many similar problems there are in codepaths that aren't commonly used on mobile telephones... |
| kb9vqf | :yikes: |
| kb9vqf | Qt3 is STABLE |
| kb9vqf | kind of like Xlib |
| MutantTurkey | Xlib is terrible though :P |
| kb9vqf | Yes it is |
| MutantTurkey | have you seen xcb? |
| kb9vqf | ? |
| MutantTurkey | it's awesome |
| MutantTurkey | it's the new (actually like 2006ish) |
| MutantTurkey | standard |
| MutantTurkey | X C Bindings, wayy faster. |
| kb9vqf | ah |
| kb9vqf | no, not really |
| MutantTurkey | frankly I hate the whole X11 stack |
| MutantTurkey | i think it doesn't make sense for a desktop |
| kb9vqf | not sure |
| MutantTurkey | the server/client nature of it was good in 1985 with one mainframe. |
| kb9vqf | especially with the trend towards mainframes again |
| MutantTurkey | good point |
| kb9vqf | BTW xcb is not always faster http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xcb/2009-February/004321.html |
| kb9vqf | It's one of Qt4's problems :P |
| MutantTurkey | interesting |
| MutantTurkey | I still think xlib is a PITA |
| kb9vqf | and Qt3 abstracts us from that |
| kb9vqf | I say stick with the tried and true for something as basic as a desktop |
| kb9vqf | unless you don't have the features needed |
| kb9vqf | which I have yet to come across |
| kb9vqf | leave the experimentation to video games and apps that *need* that much power |
| kb9vqf | and the risk of instability |
| MutantTurkey | right |
| kb9vqf | *at |
| MutantTurkey | I wish we had something like mac or windows, the video component in the kernel |
| MutantTurkey | many people are warey of it |
| kb9vqf | we're getting there |
| kb9vqf | kms |
| MutantTurkey | I know |
| kb9vqf | looks good to me |

| * l0ner is watching silently |
| MutantTurkey | performance is crazy better |
| kb9vqf | actually I use the nvidia open source driver |
| kb9vqf | works well for me *and* I get full XRandR 1.2 support |
| MutantTurkey | intel has great support luckily |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| MutantTurkey | i guess its because it's so simple... :P |
| kb9vqf | Intel is very good there |
| MutantTurkey | no performance, but all the stability |
| kb9vqf | hey...it runs Compiz! |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | a workhorse for business |
| kb9vqf | actually I'd prefer that |
| kb9vqf | once you go to the Quadro series though NVidia is pretty good |
| MutantTurkey | alright almost 4am... need to sleep :P |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| kb9vqf | me too |
| MutantTurkey | luckily I have the afternoon shift tomorrow. 1pm! |
| MutantTurkey | so still a good 8 hours of sleep |
| l0ner | so, form whats is written on the microxwin page, it can be easily used as a replacement for x11? |
| MutantTurkey | l0ner: with some work |
| MutantTurkey | I have run it following his instructions |
| MutantTurkey | basically the problem is that it is a closed source kernel module |
| MutantTurkey | (which isn't that ridiculous, seeing as we have plenty of binay driver blobs) |
| l0ner | yes |
| MutantTurkey | but the theory is there. |
| MutantTurkey | if only someone would make an open source version of it. |
| l0ner | but because of that it wont get mainstream |
| MutantTurkey | If i win lottery, I am purchasing it from him. |
| MutantTurkey | :p |
| l0ner | good luck ;) |
| l0ner | but i have seen somewere something like that |
| MutantTurkey | anyway |
| l0ner | don't remember where tho |
| MutantTurkey | I am going to sleep. |
| l0ner | g'nite ;) |
| MutantTurkey | I'll talk to you all tomorrow sometime actually thurdsay probably. |

| KingSphinx | I'm running update-manager to upgrade Trinity to 11.04, but I have a few concerns before I start the upgrade... |
| KingSphinx | kde-guidance-kde3, kde-guidance-powermanager-kde3, openoffice.org-kde3, guidance-backends-kde3 and python-kde3-kde3 want to be removed. Are any of these essential? |
| Piki | KingSphinx: i don't use ubuntu, so i can't help, but if nobody answers soon, the best thing to do would be to back up your data before upgrading |
| KingSphinx | That's fine, I can wait for someone to help. Plus my /home's on a separate partition, so I can just reinstall if something goes wrong. |
| Piki | the best suggestion i have there is to see if there are tde equivalents. openoffice.org-kde and python-kde3 shouldn't be needed, those are just extensions, and powermanager should only be needed for laptops or changing cpu frequencies if the cpu supports that |
| Piki | not sure about the others |

| Xu_R | kb9vqf: do you think it's ok if I start naming packages like tde-kdelibs instead of kdelibs3 or kdelibs-trinity? |
| kb9vqf | how about tdelibs |
| kb9vqf | the -trinity extension in Ubuntu/Debian is legacy ;-) |
| Xu_R | just start replacing kde with tde now? |
| kb9vqf | go ahead since you are starting anew |
| Xu_R | ah, ok. because I was thinking that might not be what you would like :) |
| kb9vqf | Debian/Ubuntu is a bit trickier because of the relatively long history |

| sinedeviance | hi all! i was wondering if any of you know how large trinity-desktop is installed? |
| sinedeviance | i am asking because i have a debian server that i have installed it onto. my / partition only has the base system, mysql/apache2/php, htop, and trinity-desktop installed, but for some reason my partition is showing 4.5gb of usage. this seems really strange |
| sinedeviance | if nobody knows, can you tell me how to completely remove trinity-desktop so i can check my partition size after removal and then reinstall? |

| Xu_R | I know what /quit is xP |
| Piki | some clients actually quit instead of just d/cing :-) |
| Xu_R | i know, but I'm talking standard behavior :P |
| Xu_R | have you started packaging Trinity for ark? |
| Piki | i'm waiting for bero to put out an iso with recent packages included |
| Piki | manually upgrading packages via command line seems to be causing a lot of issues for me |
| Piki | and AFAIK bero hasn't fixed zypper/apt-rpm |
| Xu_R | Piki: you don't need to test the spec files right away - just write them out based on the old ones |
| Xu_R | you can test them when a new iso comes out |
| Piki | i know, i prefer to do the packages when i do the specs |
| Piki | i don't know why, just feels more comfortable for my work flow |
| Xu_R | Piki: yea... I know how it feels, but it's going to be a time waster... easier to take the old srpms, unrpm them, mod the spec, and then test later |
| Piki | we've wasted a lot of time already, and it's looking like we're not releasing any time soon :-) |
| Xu_R | where did you get that? |
| Xu_R | we're only stuck on bug fixing? |
| Piki | i'm talking ark |
| Xu_R | ah, ark. |
| Piki | we used to do a release every year, our last release was in 2008, and bero's taking his time with the new iso |
| Xu_R | I may have a solution to ark's rpm problem (thanks, jbj) but from therein I don't know. |
| Piki | rpm works fine in ark, we just need to either a) setup apt-rpm5, or b) finish porting zypper to rpm5 |
| Xu_R | oh, oops. s/rpm/zypper |
| Piki | the problem i'm having with manually upgrading is a bad package from bero |
| Piki | Xu_R: hmm? |
| Xu_R | I meant I have a solution to libzypp/libsatsolver/zypper... |
| Piki | ok |
| Xu_R | (courtesy of Yacto/Poky Linux) |
| Piki | ok |
| Xu_R | Piki: oh, and btw, we migrated SVN.td to GIT.td |
| Xu_R | Piki: git.trinitydesktop.org |
| * Xu_R guesses you already knew that anyway |
| Piki | Xu_R: you can email the solution to bero@arklinux.org, he seems to have fixed the mail server to forward to the correct email |
| Piki | no, i didn't know |
| Xu_R | Piki: I know his email address, just need to make sure he's actually there ;P |
| Piki | haven't been paying much attention lately, haven't spent as much time as usual at the computer (no reason, really, just been stressed out lately) |
| Piki | Xu_R: his email wasn't working, it existed on arklinux.org and the mail server works correctly, but he was having it forward to his work email, which he had to change when he got his new job, and it works now |
| Xu_R | Piki: I knew about it. I know he email address has been working for a while now - I emailed him last month or so and he responded right away. |
| Xu_R | it's bero@arklinux.ch |
| Piki | that too |
| Piki | i normally send it to .org, but the mail server can use both .org and .ch |

| Piki | being that i'm new to git, i need to ask, would the command be "git clone something"? |
| Piki | for a checkout? |
| Xu_R | well, yes |
| Xu_R | except GIT doesn't do checkouts, it's cloning |
| Xu_R | because GIT essentially downloads the whole repo to your folder |
| Piki | what's the clone url for tde-packaging? |
| Xu_R | you'll get it with your account info |
| Piki | ok |

| Xu_R | Piki: yea. you can have no clients or you can 10 clients |
| Xu_R | you'll still be logged in |
| Piki | i've also heard of people running a client like irssi in a screen session to remain connected, and they can detach from screen whenever they're leaving the computer |
| Xu_R | yea, that's possible. |
| ar | Xu_R: all you can the the better thing and run irssi in tmux/screen |
| Xu_R | ar: I already have ZNC set up, and it served me well, especially in china, where you can't use ssh. |
| Xu_R | I'll stick with my ZNC ^^ |
| ar | Xu_R: you can't? |
| ar | that's interesting |
| Xu_R | ar: nope. cryptography like ssh is banned in china. the biggest PITA ever. |
| Xu_R | closest thing to that is webssh, and that is pretty terrible. most websshs are blocked by the great firewall, too. |
| ar | i'm running my own "webssh" on my own server |
| Piki | webssh is just ssh through a web browser, still cryptography :-) |

| Xu_R | Piki: easier than getting portblocked from everywhere. damn ISP. |
| Piki | Xu_R: i need to use webssh and webchat at the local community college, they like knowing exactly what we're doing :-) |
| Piki | if only i could use an ssh tunnel from behind their firewall :-( |
| Piki | but port 22 is blocked, and i'm pretty sure they block the port i use for ssh on my server |
| Xu_R | ok, let me try this again. they blocked freenode in china. they blocked ssh ports. they can detect VPN connections and kill them. |
| ar | i also have a nice hack on my server |
| ar | if i hit a special url via https, the next connection from my current ip gets passed to openvpn instead of httpd |
| Xu_R | ar: wow, nice |
| ar | nothing special. just a simple cgi script with extra permisions and a bit of iptables magic |
| Xu_R | not bad. |
| ar | had an idea about actually making it a proper webapp with "special urls" being usable only once and randomly generated |
| ar | but, as always, time's an issue |
| Xu_R | always is |

| cpatrick08 | sorry about that printscreen was putting alot of screens out |
| cpatrick08 | i love this os so much good job |
| jumpship | Yeah, it's nice to see someone take this on, these guys are gods in my book |
| cpatrick08 | now if somebody could fork gnome 2 then both gnome 3 and kde 4 haters would be happy |
| Qu4Z | Mentioning Gnome in a kde channel... you're trading on dangerous ground :P |
| Qu4Z | *treading |
| cpatrick08 | yea |
| jumpship | I think the Gnome2 crowd might be happy with XFCE, I didn't care for either, but XFCE seemed pretty similar to Gnome2 (or at least on it's way there) |
| cpatrick08 | true |
| Qu4Z | But you're right. What is it with DE developers and suddenly going off and doing their own completely useless thing :/ |
| cpatrick08 | it looks like it is for tablets just like unity looks like it is for tablets also |
| jumpship | but without Trinity I'd have been left in the cold when Debian moved to KDE4 |
| Qu4Z | Tablets are overrated |
| jumpship | I think they got bored |
| cpatrick08 | yea Tablets are overrated |
| Qu4Z | I'd buy one if it came with a wallmount and a dvi port and I could use it as an extra monitor for my desktop, though :P |
| jumpship | I'm only interested when a cell or similar service lets me connect it live to my desktop |
| cpatrick08 | the only touch thing i like is the ipod touch |
| Qu4Z | I dunno. I think if I could use it as a monitor most of the time, sync files to it wirelessly, and then take it with me when I left I'd be vaguely interested. |
| jumpship | like a mobile thin client |
| Qu4Z | jumpship: My concern there would be latency |
| Qu4Z | Unresponsive interfaces are a PITA |
| jumpship | sure, the tech isn't there yet, and the services seem to be moving to wrong way |
| Qu4Z | Yeah, if it were responsive, that'd be awesome. |
| cpatrick08 | that is true |
| jumpship | even being able to do it over wifi around the house would be nice, but the price is too high for what I want right now |
| cpatrick08 | yea tablets do cost alot |
| Qu4Z | Well, if it were usable as a monitor the rest of the time that'd offset the cost a bit for me, I think. |
| Qu4Z | But yes, they're friggin' expensive. |
| jumpship | I'd really like a modular mobile setup, sorta like how open a desktop is, but portable |
| jumpship | I would spend the money on a tablet if I could find one with a line in for audio, for less than $400, but I havn't see one yet |
| cpatrick08 | the Coby Kyros MID7015 7-Inch Android has that for less than $200 http://www.amazon.com/Coby-MID7015-Android-Internet-Touchscreen/dp/B0047Q9GT4 |
| cpatrick08 | it has a hdmi slot and a usb 2.0 slot |
| Qu4Z | I really want to just take a subset of my PC with me :P |
| Qu4Z | Like, the keyboard, and a screen. Plug them together, and ... TADA |
| jumpship | I see those, that would be nice, but I didn't see a line in, my goal would be to use linux with jack on top, I think it would be cool to use it as a dsp |
| jumpship | wouldn't vnc or rdp let you use it as a second monitor, I seem to remember a system for using a second computer to drive a second monitor, don't know how well it would work, but sounds like fun to try |
| cpatrick08 | i am running trinity on the maverick and i was wonderig if anybody has tried it on squeeze if so is it better than the ubuntu tde |
| jumpship | I use squeeze, I havn't tried Ubuntu, but I think Ubuntu is what the developers use |
| cpatrick08 | ok you like it i was thinking bout switching from ubuntu to squeeze tde |
| jumpship | It's hard to say, they are very similar, I like Debian, but I've had a few little problems I suspect are because the developers use Ubuntu, for example Ubuntu uses sudo and Debian uses su, you can use either with both I guess |
| jumpship | The current bug of the week is a good example of the problems I've seen |
| cpatrick08 | yea so what problems do you face jumpship |
| jumpship | I switched to using sudo instead of su to avoid the bug, other than that I can't remember exactly, I don't know that TDE is really any different in either |
| cpatrick08 | yea but i herd the debian base is more stable than the ubuntu base |
| jumpship | I guess it depends on what you mean by stable, as in not changing or not crashing |
| cpatrick08 | less bugs |
| jumpship | I really couldn't say about ubuntu, but Squeeze has been very good to me |
| jumpship | You might try the mailing list, noone seems to be in here today |
| cpatrick08 | ok |

| kb9vqf | but I will see shortly |
| Xu_R | ok |
| Xu_R | hmm... I can confirm I have all the dependencies needed to link vorbis. so it's not a dependency problem |
| Xu_R | kb9vqf: I hope you didn't mind that I put README.GIT at the root of tde-packaging ^_^" |

| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | merge them in tde-packaging |
| kb9vqf | I'll look over the result and make final changes before putting it in tde |
| kb9vqf | how is the build? |
| Xu_R | ok |
| Xu_R | still building |
| kb9vqf | is that a good sign? |
| kb9vqf | i.e. would it have failed before now? |
| Xu_R | no, because it hasn't gotten up to that part yet |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | your build log isn't very useful TBH |
| kb9vqf | debian will say "leaving directory xxx" when the build fails |

| kb9vqf | how is kdesudo now? |
| *** Z_God has quit IRC |
| kb9vqf | it was rebuilt in the past few days |

| Xu_R | now time to test ;) |
| kb9vqf | it won't be build for a while |
| kb9vqf | but you can cherry-pick the patch |
| kb9vqf | from SVN |
| kb9vqf | *built |
| Xu_R | I'll wait for the builds, there might be other goodies :) |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | I actually have a bit in the pipeline right now :-P |
| kb9vqf | the final move from kde3 to trinity |
| Xu_R | :D |
| kb9vqf | literally replacing the string 'kde3' with 'trinity' |
| kb9vqf | s/final/next-to-last/g |
| kb9vqf | there is one more that needs to be done sometime |
| kb9vqf | replacing the string 'KDE3' with 'Trinity' |
| kb9vqf | that's a bit nastier |
| kb9vqf | but I did it in the Debian/Ubuntu packaging :)( |
| kb9vqf | just not in the Trinity source itself |
| kb9vqf | anyway builds could take a couple days |
| Xu_R | ok |
| Xu_R | it'll make the Trinity stand out and the KDE3 begone ^__^ |
| kb9vqf | yup |
| kb9vqf | and also fix the problems with adept and a handful of other apps that retained "kde3" in their innards |
| kb9vqf | oh, and there won't be /opt/trinity/lib/kde3 anymore |
| kb9vqf | only /opt/trinity/lib/trinity |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| Xu_R | :D |
| kb9vqf | but as I said...that's a big build batch... |
| kb9vqf | it could fail.... |
| kb9vqf | and take a few days |
| Xu_R | hopefully not |
| * kb9vqf crosses fingers |
| Xu_R | I already replaced every "kde3" in packaging into "tde", so I might be a first-look |
| kb9vqf | keep working on getting preliminary RPM builds |
| Xu_R | yes... I need those. |
| kb9vqf | don't worry too much about which files go where |
| kb9vqf | just get something working |
| kb9vqf | then it can be tweaked later |
| * Xu_R notes that Ilya has been getting a bit noisier lately... |
| kb9vqf | yup |
| kb9vqf | and it's up to you to silence him with shiny new packages :) |
| kb9vqf | Although I note that every time I ask him for a patch he shuts up for a while |
| kb9vqf | and I never get the patch :-/ |
| Xu_R | the udev "patch"? it was a bluff, truthfully. |
| Xu_R | it's actually a udev automount event |
| kb9vqf | well I wasn't far off with the "troll" bit then |
| Xu_R | that has nothing to do with integration :-\ |
| Xu_R | yes, I noticed he was asking about udev rules and automounting in opensuse Factory mailing list |
| Xu_R | connected the two :-| |
| kb9vqf | Someone needs to build this http://www.trinitydesktop.org/wiki/bin/view/Developers/KPowerAPI |
| kb9vqf | I'm not going to hack yet another hardware access library just to have the underlying specs change again |
| kb9vqf | if it's done it will be done RIGHT |
| kb9vqf | until then HAL will remain just a prereq |
| kb9vqf | *just remain |
| Xu_R | good idea... |
| kb9vqf | really, there's nothing wrong with HAL |
| kb9vqf | there never was |
| kb9vqf | it just didn't extend very well or something |
| kb9vqf | but Trinity doesn't use those new features...so... |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| Xu_R | :D |
| kb9vqf | we can sit on HAL for a while IMHO |
| Xu_R | HAL is still usable, so it's fine. |
| kb9vqf | right |
| kb9vqf | and there are more pressing concerns |
| kb9vqf | like getting the *bugs fixed* and the next release out the door... :)) |
| Xu_R | a point very emphasized ;) |
| kb9vqf | (I'm considering the lack of RPM support a bug right now) |
| Xu_R | ok |
| kb9vqf | get the core system working at the very least |
| Xu_R | ok |
| kb9vqf | that is, the kde* modules |
| kb9vqf | and a handful of the apps |
| kb9vqf | amarok, kpowersave, etc. |
| kb9vqf | enough to get Ilya or others on board and they can help out with the rest |
| Xu_R | ok |
| kb9vqf | My time will be limited very shortly |
| Xu_R | time to speed up packaging... |
| Xu_R | ah, even more important then. |
| kb9vqf | so I will have to leave the project alone for a while |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | Hence the big push to get remaining problems fixed |
| Xu_R | ok |

| Xu_R | kb9vqf: hm... looks like Ilya may have tried to do automounting without hal via mtab instead of udev rules |

| delight | Is trinity installable next to a kde4 installation ? e.g. does it use a .kde-trinity ? what about commands like konsole, konqueror etc. that are available in both versions |
| delight | ? |
| kb9vqf | delight: Yes, you can install Trinity alongside KDE4 |
| kb9vqf | it does use its own ~/.kde3 or ~/.trinity folder (depending on the version you install) |
| kb9vqf | Trinity will always launch its version of an application if it is available |
| kb9vqf | otherwise it will fall back to the KDE4 version |
| kb9vqf | Likewise, KDE4 will always launch its version of an application |
| delight | kb9vqf: thnx for the info ... sounds nice ... what about if you use the shell ? |
| kb9vqf | shell? |
| delight | bash .. .command line |
| kb9vqf | from within a trinity session the above is true |
| kb9vqf | if you use the shell outside a Trinity session then only the KDE4 versions of the apps are available |
| delight | say you are on the shell and want to call something like "kate sometext.txt" |
| kb9vqf | that will work |
| kb9vqf | If you are logged into a Trinity session, then it will load the Trinity version of kate with "sometext.txt" opened |
| kb9vqf | if not, it will load the KDE4 version of Kate |
| delight | sounds great ... I'll give it a shot on my debian box ;) ... got natty on my laptop ... |
| kb9vqf | OK :) |
| delight | thnx for the infos |
| kb9vqf | let us know if you run into problems |

| kb9vqf | Xu_R: OK |
| kb9vqf | I take it arts/kdelibs are working? |
| Xu_R | yes |
| *** grand_grunt has quit IRC |
| *** grand_grunt has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Xu_R | kb9vqf: hmm... on kde3 (and by extension, kde4) configure options, there is a --with-distribution or a -DKDE_DISTRIBUTION option to specify a distribution name... |
| Xu_R | anything like that for trinity? |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| kb9vqf | well, I was pretty sure, hang on |
| kb9vqf | it used to exist in automake |
| kb9vqf | Xu_R It used to be "--with-distribution="Kubuntu (`lsb_release --codename --short`)" in Autotools |
| kb9vqf | I don't know if that feature was ported to CMake |
| Xu_R | hmm... looking at CMakeLists.txt, it wasn't. |
| kb9vqf | well, feel free to port it and send me a patch :-P |
| Xu_R | ok, when time comes around |
| kb9vqf | thanks |

| *** HardDisk_WP has joined #trinity-desktop |
| *** Z_God has quit IRC |
| kb9vqf | simcop2387: kdirstat is in our archive |
| simcop2387 | cool, i've had a hell of a time keeping a statically built copy of it around and working. there's nothing else like it and i couldn't get it ported up to kde4/qt4 to keep it otherwise |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| kb9vqf | Qt4 is pretty limiting |
| kb9vqf | we have tried to absorb as many KDE3 apps as possible |
| kb9vqf | there are many out there that only have equivalents under Windows or Mac |
| simcop2387 | i'm mostly after a bastard hybrid of kde3/kde4 these days. i've grown to really like kwin4 and a few other kde4 apps, but hate plasma. |
| simcop2387 | but if you guys keep the other stuff alive i could see myself switching back. at 3.6 i'm likely to give it a really serious chance. |
| kb9vqf | good to know |
| kb9vqf | what do you like in kwin4 that we don't have? |
| simcop2387 | honestly it's been so long that i don't remember anymore, but i'm getting a debian vm setup to try trinity right now. (qt3 and hal are the biggest blockers for me, qt3 i can manage but hal gets in the way for me anymore) |
| kb9vqf | hal isn't that bad... |
| kb9vqf | it just sits in the background |
| simcop2387 | it is when it's no longer supported by your dist and lots of packages in the package manager actively say they can't be installed if it is |
| Piki | hal crashes a lot on my system |
| * kb9vqf notes that in the current nightly builds we have basic compositing support, and work is being done to make Trinity more compositing aware |
| kb9vqf | ugh |
| kb9vqf | problem is there is no good replacement for HAL |
| kb9vqf | and writing one is going to take a while |
| Piki | kpowersave constantly loses the battery because of hal |
| simcop2387 | at least for all of hal anyway. there's udisks and upower for two small parts, nothing else that i know of |
| kb9vqf | I personally would like to see the kernel/udev stuff settle down more before writing a new library for it |
| kb9vqf | after all the upheval lately I don't trust udisks/upower to stay around in any semblance of a stable API for a while |
| kb9vqf | *upheval |
| kb9vqf | *upheavall |
| * kb9vqf just cannot type |
| kb9vqf | Also, I provide HAL for debian in the package archives |
| kb9vqf | it is bad packaging to conflict with it |
| kb9vqf | hal-trinity IIRC |
| simcop2387 | my main dist isn't debian |
| kb9vqf | ubuntu? |
| kb9vqf | or something else :) |
| simcop2387 | gentoo |
| kb9vqf | ah, ok |
| Piki | kb9vqf: i think bero had something other than hal working with kde3 back in 2008 and older, i know it wasn't udev/udisks/upower, you can ask him about it |
| kb9vqf | another obsolete API probably |
| kb9vqf | I really would like to wait and let things settle |
| Piki | maybe, but it worked |
| kb9vqf | so does HAL ;-) |
| Piki | not for me |
| Piki | it's always crashing here |
| kb9vqf | For the record, I would like to see it replaced as well |
| kb9vqf | but I have yet to see an actual viable alternative |
| Piki | what bero used sometimes forgot to unload my flash drive drivers, but it worked perfectly otherwise |
| kb9vqf | it would cost serious man-hours (read: $$$$) to produce a HAL replacement for Trinity at this point |
| kb9vqf | it involves some serious low level programming |
| kb9vqf | have you seen the APIs for udev? |
| kb9vqf | nasty stuff there |
| Piki | i don't even know how to program, so i couldn't look |
| kb9vqf | ah |
| kb9vqf | Like I said, I wish I could just replace HAL, but it is not trivial to do so |
| Piki | if something viable does come along, i'd be willing to test |
| Piki | but it would be awhile before i could develop for it |
| kb9vqf | and by the time I do, the upstream devs will probably come out with a new latest-and-greatest interface to replace the current upower one |
| kb9vqf | that's my main concern |
| Piki | at this point i wouldn't know where to start, but i'll start learning soon |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| simcop2387 | from what i remember on the hal dev lists, it's biggest problem was that they had some architectural issues (i remember huge discussions every couple of months about if it should do mounting itself and how) and it being difficult to get any significant change into the presentation to things using it |
| kb9vqf | yes, and those are the same characteristics that made it easy to use on the app level |
| kb9vqf | the HAL code in Trinity is minimal |
| kb9vqf | when you start talking about using udev directly, the code will bloat like crazy |
| Piki | and believe me when i say: if i get into a project that i want/need something, i do it well |
| kb9vqf | needing a new library, properly designed APIs, etc. |
| Piki | anyways, i need to get going, early start tomorrow |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| *** Piki has quit IRC |
| simcop2387 | yea i don't remember kde doing huge amounts with it, just waiting for disks and maybe some power management stuff (my hardware back then didn't do acpi correctly so i didn't get to see that) |
| kb9vqf | yup |
| kb9vqf | very hard to "just do that" with udev |
| kb9vqf | you need a full fledged interface library |
| kb9vqf | which doesn't exist yet |
| simcop2387 | i also seem to remember hal before udev itself being a bit of black magic to get events from the kernel, which i think lead to some of the strange looking things in it later on |
| simcop2387 | moving targets suck :) |
| kb9vqf | yes, and udev may not be able to fully replace HAL as a result |
| kb9vqf | there was talk about using devicekit |
| kb9vqf | I just can't afford to do this unless someone wants to sponsor it |
| kb9vqf | I did write a spec for the new library: http://www.trinitydesktop.org/wiki/bin/view/Developers/KPowerAPI |
| simcop2387 | hmm |
| kb9vqf | personally I |
| kb9vqf | personally I'd rather someone else implemented that library, but I can dream, can't I? :-) |
| simcop2387 | i may look into doing some of it, or sponsoring something since i've got a job finally. all depends on my time |
| kb9vqf | ok, sounds good |
| kb9vqf | let me know what you decide |
| kb9vqf | when you decide it (no rush) |
| kb9vqf | from my perspective HAL isn't a major problem |
| simcop2387 | i wil admit if i do anything it will likely not be done fast, since i've not looked at the stuff it'd involve |
| kb9vqf | oh and BTW we absorbed Qt3 |
| kb9vqf | we are maintaining it |
| kb9vqf | and providing packages for it |
| simcop2387 | yea i saw tghat |
| simcop2387 | that* |
| simcop2387 | fixed a few security issues with it too i think i read? |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | so essentially you can look at Trinity as just sitting on top of XLib and friends :) |
| kb9vqf | qt3 is just a common shared toolkit between native Trinity apps |
| kb9vqf | we're also working on improving compatibility between our version of Qt3 and the "real" Qt4 |
| kb9vqf | Qt3 is just so much faster than Qt4 |
| simcop2387 | i mostly see qt4 as a move in a good direction for the future since it'd reduce maintence on yourself (in theory) and because qt4 will supposidly support other display systems (like wayland and i think some work on direct framebuffer stuff) |
| kb9vqf | actually it makes our job 100x harder |
| kb9vqf | Qt4 is another stupid shifting target |
| kb9vqf | it's slow |
| kb9vqf | it's buggy |
| simcop2387 | huh |
| kb9vqf | A lot of those irritating KDE4 bugs didn't come from KDE ;-) |
| kb9vqf | They came from underlying Qt4 problems |
| simcop2387 | i hadn't seen much issues with it myself, but then again i've not tried to make a DE in it :) |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| kb9vqf | KDE e.V. tried and you got KDE4 |
| kb9vqf | that should speak for itself :) |
| kb9vqf | I wonder how Qt4/Qt5 will even perform under Wayland |
| kb9vqf | There is too much change right now in Linux; AFAIK a lot of companies are rightfully concerned about using Linux vs. more stable alternatives |
| simcop2387 | i played with it a bit but nothing serious, that was a while ago |
| kb9vqf | honestly Wayland must provide an X11 compat API in order for it to succeed |
| simcop2387 | wayland itself seemed to be faster on the open source drivers than Xorg was, which was a good thing, but it was way to slow at the time. |
| simcop2387 | it already has that |
| kb9vqf | and we can always latch onto that :) |
| kb9vqf | If you want bling keep KDE4 and friends |
| simcop2387 | that's the whole reason someone made it |
| kb9vqf | bling and productivity do not go together really |
| kb9vqf | IMNSHO :) |
| simcop2387 | yea i've usually got 90% of it turned off, but things like yakuake do help :) |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| kb9vqf | transparent Konsole windows and a handful of other enahcements :) |
| kb9vqf | *enhancements |
| kb9vqf | oh, and if you want to prove Qt4's inferiority for certain workloads, just try to access your KDE4 session via VNC/RDP/etc. |
| kb9vqf | you can't |
| kb9vqf | not in real time |
| kb9vqf | more like a bad slideshow |
| simcop2387 | which vnc server? with x11vnc it works fine for me, but i'm not 100% sure that counts |
| kb9vqf | huh |
| kb9vqf | used to be quite bad |
| kb9vqf | is that on a LAN? |
| simcop2387 | 802.11g |
| kb9vqf | over the Internet AFAIK you can forget it |
| kb9vqf | maybe they finally fixed that then |
| kb9vqf | it took long enough |
| simcop2387 | yea |
| kb9vqf | well, we're just one alternative of many--pick and choose what you like :) |
| kb9vqf | the general UI of Trinity is not going to change |
| kb9vqf | and I am not sure that a Qt4 port is even going to be usable |
| kb9vqf | last I tried (which was a few months ago) it was horridly slow |
| kb9vqf | this was part of the reason we absorbed Qt3 |
| kb9vqf | if it isn't broken.... |
| simcop2387 | makes me wonder if it's some oddity in opengl drivers, i've seen them do strange things with x11vnc before |
| kb9vqf | anyway I need to go |
| simcop2387 | have a good night |
| kb9vqf | you too :) |

| *** MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop |
| * Xu_R wonders if kpdf will see any performance regression/improvement if moved to libpoppler |
| MutantTurkey | I think libpoppler is the answer :P |
| Xu_R | :P |
| MutantTurkey | well only because it's easy to link to and we don't have to do any work on that actual library |
| Xu_R | that does sound easy then. |
| MutantTurkey | same as with libwebkit vs khtml |
| MutantTurkey | if we use our outdated rendering, it won't continue to recive updates, unlike libpoppler which is continuing to get updates |
| MutantTurkey | that is how I see it |
| Xu_R | and that's probably a good idea... |
| MutantTurkey | yeah |
| MutantTurkey | and it has a qt wrapper already |
| MutantTurkey | i think kpdf currently just has the xpdf code directory copied into it and thats that |
| Xu_R | o. |
| MutantTurkey | lol |
| MutantTurkey | if I recall correctly |
| MutantTurkey | but xpdf is still updated also |
| MutantTurkey | last update was 8/16/11 |
| MutantTurkey | but I don't think it's an ideal solution copying it in |
| Xu_R | I'm not sure which is better in the end... :| and we don't know what breakage new versions might bring |
| MutantTurkey | libpoppler at least has a large following and an consistant API |
| MutantTurkey | xpdf is not a library. so it's not really the best thing to do. |
| Xu_R | oic. |
| MutantTurkey | Xu_R: also sorry about saturday. there was a ton of flooding to do |
| MutantTurkey | to clean up |
| Xu_R | MutantTurkey: np... nobody showed up anyway XD we're going to have to try this again soon. |
| Xu_R | MutantTurkey: I have to finish up this packaging anyway. kb9vqf told me he considers my lack of RPM packages to test a blocker... so I've got to hurry ;P |
| MutantTurkey | yeah I consider that a major impediment |
| MutantTurkey | yeah I consider that a major impediment |
| MutantTurkey | someone I saw mentioned that "it's only packaged for ubuntu and debian" which is a major turn off for other distros |
| MutantTurkey | so having mre support would be greate |
| MutantTurkey | increases user base and legitness |
| Xu_R | yea... |
| MutantTurkey | Xu_R: close any bugs though? |
| Xu_R | haven't had the time to look at the bug list lately |
| Xu_R | been rushing to get stuff done in time for next week |
| Xu_R | (school starting) |
| MutantTurkey | yeah me too... |
| MutantTurkey | I still havent gotten books or anything yet xD |
| Xu_R | XD |
| MutantTurkey | I have tuesdays and thursdays off though |
| Xu_R | last minute panic :P |
| MutantTurkey | but I work those days anyway... |
| Xu_R | well, I have to run. got more stuff to do |
| Xu_R | later |
| MutantTurkey | okay bud |
| MutantTurkey | Seriously ubuntu is pissing me off. Every release they become less standardized |
| MutantTurkey | they are leaving the FOSS ecosystem rapidly |
| MutantTurkey | for example, Unity is the new interface. that's awesome! but it only compiles with ubuntu because they have 5000 zillion hacks and patches to make it work. |
| MutantTurkey | talk about pain in the arse. |
| *** KingSphinx has joined #trinity-desktop |
| MutantTurkey | KingSphinx: you asked a question yesterday that went unanswered |
| MutantTurkey | you left, and then I looked and knew the answer. |
| MutantTurkey | do you recall the question? |
| KingSphinx | Um, no, I don't recall asking anything yesterday... most recent question I asked was whether or not TDE will have anything for GTK3 integration or not, and that was a few days ago. |
| MutantTurkey | okay |
| MutantTurkey | that was it |
| MutantTurkey | while GTK3 is out. It is likely to take a few years to get it off the ground. |
| MutantTurkey | GTK2 is so firmly implanted and so few applications use GTK3 at this point |
| MutantTurkey | so answer |
| MutantTurkey | is yes but not yet |
| KingSphinx | Ah, okay then |
| KingSphinx | Guess it's a good thing that I'm thinking ahead, but yeah... |
| KingSphinx | Oh! I think I also asked whether updating to 11.10 would be the same as 10.10 -> 11.04, or if any additional steps would need to be taken (this is, of course, assuming there's no repos for Ocelot by that time) |
| KingSphinx | *Trinity repos, should've been clearer |
| *** edakiri has quit IRC |
| MutantTurkey | KingSphinx: sorry I had a meeting |
| MutantTurkey | you are always supposed to update to 10.10 -> 11.04 -> 11.10 |
| MutantTurkey | I dont think you can skip over one |
| *** grand_grunt has quit IRC |
| *** grand_grunt has joined #trinity-desktop |
| KingSphinx | I know, I meant when 11.10 comes out, assuming there's no Ocelot Trinity packages by that time, will upgrading to Ocelot from Natty leave 3.5.12 intact? |
| MutantTurkey | It might not |
| MutantTurkey | Ubuntu has been messing around with their paths. I am sure that timothy will provide packages for it though. |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: can you speak on this? |
| kb9vqf | 3.5.12? not sure |
| MutantTurkey | what about from HEAD? |
| kb9vqf | new packages will definitely be provided from HEAD |
| kb9vqf | we have natty builds from HEAD already, ocelot will be next |
| kb9vqf | as a rule I don't build packages for Ubuntu until the first beta release |
| kb9vqf | of Ubuntu that is |
| kb9vqf | it costs a lot of $$$ to build packages unfortunately |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: ? |
| kb9vqf | electricity |
| MutantTurkey | ah |
| KingSphinx | Not even open-source is free :/ |
| kb9vqf | free as in freedom, remember :) |
| MutantTurkey | not as in free beer. |
| MutantTurkey | though that is welcomed |
| kb9vqf | right |
| kb9vqf | consider that there are over 300 *source* packages that comprise Trinity |
| KingSphinx | Though, if I remember correctly, something was mentioned in the logs about OpenSUSE still having 3.5 developers? |
| kb9vqf | a full rebuild, even on the build farm, can take a couple of days |
| MutantTurkey | KingSphinx: NOT DEVELOPERS. |
| MutantTurkey | they are maintainers. |
| MutantTurkey | they do no work whatsoever to develop it. |
| MutantTurkey | they are content with "leaving it as long as it builds" |
| kb9vqf | MutantTurkey is correct |
| MutantTurkey | which basically ensures that their kde3 branch is dry rotting away. |
| kb9vqf | bit rotting ;-) |
| kb9vqf | they tend to use nasty distro-specific hacks to get around build failures |
| KingSphinx | Wow, that sucks. |
| kb9vqf | yeah |
| kb9vqf | but that's all their users want right now |
| MutantTurkey | and they are jerks and troll our mailing list |
| kb9vqf | careful... |
| KingSphinx | Still sounds better than not being able to build at all though (*cough*Fedora*cough*) |
| MutantTurkey | :) |
| kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Only one does that |
| kb9vqf | be very careful |
| MutantTurkey | :) |
| MutantTurkey | you are correct I apologize. |
| kb9vqf | it's OK :) |
| KingSphinx | Hmm... will there ever be a point that TDE will move past the 3.5.x naming or is it "frozen" there? |
| kb9vqf | it's frozen until the bugs in the bugtracker are under control |
| kb9vqf | 3.6 should be almost completely bug free |
| kb9vqf | after all that is one of our selling points--fast and stable |
| MutantTurkey | :D |
| KingSphinx | because you don't want another KDE 4.0 on your hands... ;) |
| kb9vqf | exactly |
| kb9vqf | we're being somewhat careful about that :) |

| kb9vqf | yep |

| MutantTurkey | basically, if Konsole(KDE4) was installed, you can't remove it because ksmserver-kd3 trys to rename /usr/bin/plasma |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| MutantTurkey | marked as fixed? |
| kb9vqf | that is due to a design defect in KDE4 |
| MutantTurkey | we install to /opt/ now right? |
| kb9vqf | it may not be fixed |
| MutantTurkey | I will check |
| kb9vqf | it doesn't matter where Trinity is installed to |
| MutantTurkey | oh okay |
| kb9vqf | basically plasma is an ill behaved little brat and always tries to launch no matter what, execpt in a hand picked set of desktop environments |
| kb9vqf | (gnome, xfce, etc. |
| MutantTurkey | so unless it is marked to not launch it will? |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| MutantTurkey | how do you stop it? |
| kb9vqf | the only way I was able to fix thta was to redirect plasma to a wrapper script that checks for Trinity before launching the real plasma binary |
| kb9vqf | *that |
| MutantTurkey | ah |
| MutantTurkey | okay I gotta catch the train. |
| kb9vqf | the bug is still valid; installation/deinstallation should not be affected by what is installed or not installed |
| MutantTurkey | hopefully a few bugs rounded up a day and marked off will help |
| kb9vqf | but I don't know if the bug is still present :) |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | yes it will |
| kb9vqf | eventually though you will have to start actually *fixing* them :) |

| *** tidux has joined #trinity-desktop |
| tidux | are builds x86-only at this point? |
| tidux | I tried adding the repositories to my Sheevaplug running Debian Squeeze armel |
| tidux | but APT couldn't find the armel repository |
| tidux | for Trinity |
| kb9vqf | x86/amd64 |
| kb9vqf | I don't have arm builders online right now |
| tidux | ah |
| kb9vqf | (or even the ability to use them) |
| kb9vqf | it's on a to-do list :) |
| tidux | sheevaplugs are cheap ($99 plus S+H new) and they run Squeeze great from an SDHC |
| tidux | power's not all that great, so I figured Trinity would be a great way to get a decent desktop for VNC |
| tidux | as it is, I just use SSH or the serial port |
| kb9vqf | Trinity + ARM would be a good mix IMHO :) |
| kb9vqf | I just haven't had time to set up the (unfamiliar to me) ARM build ysstem |
| kb9vqf | *system |
| tidux | kb9vqf: eh, once you install Debian (which can be a headache depending on hardware) it's really no different than x86 |
| *** Anixx-suse has quit IRC |
| tidux | most things "just work" for building from source |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | but in my case I have no native ARM CPUs :) |
| kb9vqf | so then there's an emulator involved somewhere |
| kb9vqf | not to mention the interface to my build system and release manager |
| tidux | ah |
| tidux | just use basic command-line tools wherever possible and you should be good |
| kb9vqf | not that it isn't doable, just that it might take a bit for me to get it all running properly |
| kb9vqf | of course :) |
| tidux | the nice thing about ARM hardware is you can just leave it on |
| tidux | my sheevaplug draws ~6W |
| tidux | my Roku box draws ~2W |
| tidux | switch one 75-watt light bulb to a CFL and add five ARM servers to your LAN - you'll still come out ahead on power |
| kb9vqf | of course they have almost no power available for things like compiling or heavy duty computation... |
| kb9vqf | ;-) |
| kb9vqf | but for embedded systems they are great |
| tidux | kb9vqf: bah, my Sheevaplug has a 1.2GHz CPU and 512MB RAM |
| kb9vqf | yeah, and how long will it take you to compile the Linux kernel on that? |
| tidux | quicker than my old Athlon XP |
| kb9vqf | but still slower than my Opteron class systems |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| tidux | well yeah |
| tidux | I hang out with people who still do software development on an 8088 |
| kb9vqf | if they made one with a DVI output or PCI slot it would make a great mythtv frontend |
| tidux | so relative to old DOS hardware it's lightspeed |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| tidux | you don't want a Sheevaplug for MythTV |
| tidux | get a Trim Slice FitPC |
| tidux | comes with Tegra 2 for a CPU/GPU SoC, and HDMI output |
| tidux | or DVI-D |
| tidux | I forget which |
| kb9vqf | "GPU assisted video playback is not supported yet " |
| kb9vqf | personally I prefer a thin client with a PCI/E slot |
| * tidux shrugs |
| tidux | a Tegra 2 is still pretty powerful |
| kb9vqf | not enough for HDTV though :) |
| tidux | au contraire |
| kb9vqf | anyway, I am pulling this channel off topic |
| tidux | the FitPC can do 1080p output |
| kb9vqf | you can play 1080p with a Tegra? |
| tidux | yeah |
| kb9vqf | at 60Hz? |
| tidux | http://trimslice.com/web/ |
| tidux | ^ detailed specs are there |
| kb9vqf | ok, cool |
| tidux | anyways, how's Qt4 compatibility going? |
| tidux | I'd love to see SMPlayer look native in Trinity |
| kb9vqf | read the IRC archive :-P |
| tidux | where's that? |
| kb9vqf | http://www.trinitydesktop.org/irc/logs.html |
| kb9vqf | tidux: Basically, Qt4 is a shifting target, it's slow, it's buggy, and it's a royal pain |
| kb9vqf | not sure it's worth the compat layer ATM |
| kb9vqf | I am working on other ways to get the Trinity look+feel on Qt4 :) |
| kb9vqf | (for native Qt4 apps that is) |
| kb9vqf | In some respects, using Qt4 is like asking for a modern native Windows C++ application to be rewritten with an old version of Visual Basic |
| tidux | yeah, I don't even use Qt4 apps anymore - the only things on my system that use it are smplayer and VirtualBox |
| tidux | and I stopped using VirtualBox in favor of KVM |
| tidux | Amarok 2.... WHY. |
| kb9vqf | VirtualBox here is the only Qt4 app I use |
| kb9vqf | Becuase people are stupid and can't figure out how to use a powerful app like Amarok 1.4? |
| tidux | one question: will Trinity support other window managers? |
| kb9vqf | for example? |
| tidux | I'm one of the 15 or so Window Maker geeks left on the planet |
| kb9vqf | ah |
| tidux | and I found a KDE3-lookalike theme |
| tidux | and a systray dockapp |
| kb9vqf | well, it is fully NET compliant |
| kb9vqf | so you should be able to use any WM you want |
| tidux | heh nice |
| kb9vqf | For example I know the compiz WM works |
| kb9vqf | just be sure to run it with the --replace option, to replace kwin |
| tidux | ah |
| kb9vqf | or similar (WM may have a different name for the equivalent option) |
| kb9vqf | anyway, I need to get going |
| tidux | ok |
| kb9vqf | hopefully I will have time to look into ARM builds this year |
| tidux | cool |

| MutantTurkey | o/ |
| KingSphinx | I made a Kubuntu Hardy live CD just for kicks earlier... it's nice, but it really serves as a point as to how far Linux as a whole has come in just three years... |
| MutantTurkey | has it come far? |
| KingSphinx | Quite far, actually. Seems that while it did recognize my wireless card needed drivers, my display wouldn't go past 800x600 (it's 1280x1024 native) |
| MutantTurkey | true |
| MutantTurkey | our autodetect is getting more magical |
| KingSphinx | Not to mention it felt a bit sluggish even for being on a CD |
| MutantTurkey | I think the ecosystem is only getting slower though :| |
| KingSphinx | Trinity or Linux in general? |
| KingSphinx | Though one notable difference between Hardy and Kubuntu/Trinity is that Hardy included Dolphin as the default file browser... I honestly didn't know there even was a version of Dolphin for KDE3 O_o |
| MutantTurkey | linux |
| MutantTurkey | trinity remains fast |
| KingSphinx | Well, it can't be blazing-fast all the time... no matter how much we all wish it could be, the ecosystem has to slow down sometimes. Don't give up hope though, the Linux community will speed up again soon. |
| KingSphinx | Heck, we just had GNOME 3 not too long ago |
| KingSphinx | Keep in mind that the last time we had a real "new" GNOME was ten years ago... |
| KingSphinx | I think the next time we'll see a major pickup in the community is when KDE 5 is released. Even though I love Trinity, I'm honestly excited to see what KDE 5 will bring. |
| MutantTurkey | meh |
| *** MutantTurkey has quit IRC |
| Qu4Z | I'm hoping KDE5 will be cool, but KDE seems to have moved to inhabit the slot that Gnome used to serve, with Gnome moving off into tabled territory |
| KingSphinx | And I think that Trinity could serve as a decent alternative for users spurned away by GNOME's radical shift |
| KingSphinx | Easy on resources, stable, offers good integration (not perfect, but eh) with GTK2 apps... |

| *** KingSphinx has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Qu4Z | I think Trinity could offer a decent alternative for any users :) |
| Qu4Z | ... except users of Trinity, of course. That wouldn't make sense |
| Qu4Z | And probably tiling window managers. They're too cool for us |
| KingSphinx | I never quite understood tiling window managers. I mean, why go backwards in time technology-wise? (...yes, I realize I'm saying this while using what's technically an "outdated" DE) |
| KingSphinx | Wasn't Windows 1.0 the only version to do tiling? |
| Qu4Z | Well, some people even type source code into a text editor instead of dragging and connecting components like has been possible for years. There's no accounting for taste, I guess. |

| KingSphinx | Assuming the work on porting Qt3 to TQt is complete, do you think that TDE could be added to Ubuntu's official repos anytime soon? Or do they not want such an "outdated" desktop? |
| MutantTu1key | [Cit is |
| MutantTu1key | sorry |
| MutantTu1key | KingSphinx: I think there will be a greater chance once we release and have a larger following |
| MutantTu1key | I mean, repo's work on demand. if people want a program, its more likely to end up in the offical repos |
| KingSphinx | So it's just a "wait-and-see" thing? |
| MutantTu1key | frankly I would rather stay seperate, because that wayyou have more control |

| KingSphinx | :o A new KRandR? |
| kb9vqf | A better one |
| kb9vqf | it's not a replacement for the tray icon |
| kb9vqf | this one configures the entire system from KDM startup onwards |
| kb9vqf | it supports extended, not just cloned, desktops |
| kb9vqf | and it can apply the settings on the fly :) |
| MutantTu1key | thats awesome |
| kb9vqf | I think this puts us on the forefront of usability...no more Xorg files :)) |
| MutantTu1key | I mean that is a seriously awesome improvement. |
| MutantTu1key | GO TIM! WOOOT WOOT. IT'S YOUR BIRTHDAY. LETS PARTY! /o/ \o/ \o\ |
| kb9vqf | IIRC KDE4 can't do that either |
| kb9vqf | or gnome |
| kb9vqf | especially not the arbitrary monitor config |
| KingSphinx | I was just about to ask that |
| MutantTu1key | gnome has a terrible montor config. |
| KingSphinx | Especially now with GNOME 3 |
| MutantTu1key | good randr support is important to alot of users. |
| * KingSphinx speaks from experience |
| MutantTu1key | especially power users. |
| kb9vqf | When I was testing this I was just having fun dragging my secondary monitor wherever I wanted it :) |
| kb9vqf | up, down, side to side... |
| MutantTu1key | kb9vqf: can you switch primary monitors? |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| MutantTu1key | bam. |
| kb9vqf | see the primary monitor checkbbox? |
| KingSphinx | I mean, I don't have dual-monitors (desk is way too small), but this is still awesome to have. |
| MutantTu1key | kb9vqf: haven't checked yet. |
| kb9vqf | I meant in the screenshot |
| MutantTu1key | oh i see the link now |
| MutantTu1key | http://www.trinitydesktop.org/secret_whispers_0f_a_n3w_p0w3r.png |
| KingSphinx | And yet more proof that "old" KDE is FAR from dead. |
| MutantTu1key | secret whispers of a new power.... |
| MutantTu1key | in the screenshot I am only seeing one monitor |
| kb9vqf | that's because I only had one connected when I took it :-P |
| MutantTu1key | oh okay |
| kb9vqf | more monitors show up, trust me :) |
| MutantTu1key | I have a buddy like in the cubicle next to me using kde4. |
| MutantTu1key | I am going to ask him about his randr setup ina minute |
| KingSphinx | This is planned for the 3.5.13 release? |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | it's in SVN and active |
| MutantTu1key | KingSphinx:... it is live. |
| MutantTu1key | frankly we are easily the most customisable system. and the fac that we have a good central hub for config is amazing |
| kb9vqf | the last kdebase builds are wrapping up now...you could even try it out yourself in a day or so |
| MutantTu1key | kb9vqf: how long does a rebuild take? |
| kb9vqf | A full rebuild takes 3-4 days |
| kb9vqf | 30GB of software here :) |
| MutantTu1key | but how often is that? |
| kb9vqf | once or twice a year |
| kb9vqf | I try to keep them to a minimum as they are quite costly |
| MutantTu1key | assuming you worked on just kdebase, you just rebuild kdebase |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | unless you changed core libraries ;-) |
| MutantTu1key | kb9vqf: can you actually put a physical number on it? like is it obvious on the bill? |
| kb9vqf | It uses an extra 1-2KW of power continuously for the 3-4 days |
| kb9vqf | and ties up computing resources that would otherwise be used for business tasks or turned off |
| kb9vqf | but I don't mind :) |
| MutantTu1key | right |
| kb9vqf | I just try to keep full rebuilds to a minimu |
| kb9vqf | *minimum |
| MutantTu1key | yeah |
| MutantTu1key | 30GB? holy snark |
| kb9vqf | Lucid,Maverick,Natty,Squeeze,x86,amd64 |
| kb9vqf | over 400 builds required |
| MutantTu1key | righ |
| MutantTu1key | do you use a distributed build system? |
| MutantTu1key | like distcc? |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | no |
| kb9vqf | clear as mud? |
| kb9vqf | Each builder in my farm builds its own job |

| MutantTu1key | okay.... |
| MutantTu1key | and what software do you use? |

| kb9vqf | it's a rebranded version of Launchpad |
| MutantTu1key | right |
| kb9vqf | the only one in existence AFAIK |
| MutantTu1key | thre only rebranded version or what? |
| kb9vqf | there are two running Launchpad instances that I am aware of: the official one run by Canonical, and mine |
| MutantTu1key | Oh. wow. |
| kb9vqf | it is invaulable for the package management systems |
| MutantTu1key | that good? |
| kb9vqf | I can organize the releases, move packages between archives |
| MutantTu1key | Do you keep snyced with their updates? |
| kb9vqf | it won't let me do Bad Things |
| kb9vqf | when neccessary |
| MutantTu1key | thats awesome. |
| kb9vqf | anyway, I'm not going to be able to do too much more for this release |
| kb9vqf | so any help you can give with the bugs would be greatly appreciated |
| kb9vqf | time is quite limited here |
| MutantTu1key | I am going to give a good danged attempt. |
| MutantTu1key | I have time opening up really soon |
| MutantTu1key | and alot of it. |
| kb9vqf | good thing |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| MutantTu1key | so I can start tackling issues |
| kb9vqf | I'll still be here to coordinate the release, but I probably won't be committing much of anything to SVN of my own creation |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | I think once the bugs are fixed we should be good to go |
| MutantTu1key | so now our goal is just bug triage/fixing/smashing etc |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| MutantTu1key | and getting Xu_R to package :P |
| kb9vqf | I noticed quite a few RPM packages lately on the mailing list |
| kb9vqf | seems people got fed up with the delay |
| kb9vqf | could yo uspearhead an effort to get their build control files into our tde-packaging GIT repoistory? |
| * kb9vqf cannot type again |
| kb9vqf | There are packages for Mandriva and RedHat as far as I know |
| KingSphinx | There's RPMs now? Not that it matters now, since I switched back to Kubuntu, but yeah... |
| kb9vqf | let me get the mailing list links... |
| MutantTu1key | rephrase - could I spearhead the effort to get build control fields into our tde-packaging git repository |
| MutantTu1key | kb9vqf: ok |
| MutantTu1key | links please :) |
| kb9vqf | here's mandriva: http://trinity-users.pearsoncomputing.net/?0::1233 |
| kb9vqf | and yes, typos corrected, that is what I meant to say :) |
| kb9vqf | everything required to build the RPMs (except for the Trinity source files themselves) should go into GIT |
| MutantTu1key | for some reason I don't get triinty-users mail |
| MutantTu1key | though I just recenly singed up. has it been quiet? I haven't seen anything |
| kb9vqf | and here's RHEL: http://trinity-users.pearsoncomputing.net/?0::1288 |
| MutantTu1key | also, aren't mandrivia and RHEL related? |
| kb9vqf | I have no idea, sorry |
| Xu_R | MutantTulkey: no |
| Xu_R | they aren't. |
| MutantTu1key | Xu_R: no they definitely are. |
| kb9vqf | MutantTu1key: Check your spam bin |
| Xu_R | MutantTulkey: they aren |
| KingSphinx | Will these RHEL RPMs install correctly in Fedora or is that pesky /opt rule still a problem? |
| kb9vqf | MutantTu1key: please keep them separate in GIT |
| Xu_R | 't... not for a very long time |
| MutantTu1key | kb9vqf: not in there. |
| MutantTu1key | kb9vqf: yes |
| kb9vqf | MutantTu1key: Email? |
| MutantTu1key | Xu_R: I meant they are related |
| MutantTu1key | like in family |
| MutantTu1key | kb9vqf: mutantturkey@gmail.com |
| Xu_R | KingSphinx: they'll probably install in Fedora... just don't expect any love from fedora people |
| MutantTu1key | the same way that debian/ubuntu |
| Xu_R | MutantTulkey: no. |
| *** simcop2387 has quit IRC |
| kb9vqf | I want them separate in GIT |
| MutantTu1key | kb9vqf: I am going to privately email those people and expalin them |
| MutantTu1key | kb9vqf: yes of course. |
| kb9vqf | usually each distro has little tweaks they like to apply |
| Xu_R | KingSphinx: I would bet that it wasn't run through rpmlint - it would throw up big no-opt errors. |
| MutantTu1key | should I instruct them to email you o get an aaccount? |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | and I don't care about no-/opt |
| kb9vqf | personally |
| kb9vqf | I use /opt all the time |
| MutantTu1key | opt is actually a good thing for now I think |
| kb9vqf | Google even uses /opt |
| MutantTu1key | google uses opt because they don't want to conform. |
| MutantTu1key | opt is nice because you can have your own little try |
| MutantTu1key | tree |
| MutantTu1key | kb9vqf: those email addresses are blanked out on the ML.... |
| *** simcop2387 has joined #trinity-desktop |
| kb9vqf | I like it personally--I know it isn't standard, but it would be neat if all non-official repoistories installed into /opt :) |
| MutantTu1key | @... |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | let me get them from my archive |
| MutantTu1key | can you PM their emails? |
| MutantTu1key | I will email them then I have to get to work |
| Xu_R | francois.andriot@free.fr for REDHAT and Fedora |
| Xu_R | ...I can't find the mandriva maint email DX |
| kb9vqf | MutantTu1key: You are not registered on trinity-users |
| kb9vqf | I signed you up though :) |
| MutantTu1key | kb9vqf: was thier a double confirmation? |
| MutantTu1key | oaky good |
| Xu_R | MutantTulkey: ah, tmw@autotrain.org for Mandriva. |
| MutantTu1key | I know i applied and then must have just forgotten to go thrugh with it |
| Xu_R | found it~~ |
| MutantTu1key | Xu_R: thanks |
| kb9vqf | yep, that's what it looks like |
| kb9vqf | thanks for helping out here; I want those files in GIT but have no time to get them from the authors :-/ |
| kb9vqf | also make sure that they understand the licensing...open source licenses only... |
| kb9vqf | BSD/GPL perferred |
| kb9vqf | or even public domain :)( |
| MutantTu1key | WTFPL |
| Xu_R | kb9vqf: ah, crap. i've gotten stuck in dbus-1-tqt... |
| Xu_R | http://slexy.org/view/s2AA2Nrs62 |
| * Xu_R was just stopping in to check on builds |
| * Xu_R will be back soon - brb |
| kb9vqf | MutantTu1key: Regarding bug 507, when kdesudo is installed it shuts down kdesu |
| tbottu | 04Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=507 enhancement, P5, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, root-pw not accepted in [Alt]+[F2] |
| kb9vqf | kdesu accepts the root password |
| kb9vqf | kdesudo does not |
| kb9vqf | so it's not a bug in Trinity, it's a bug in which packages he has installed :) |
| MutantTu1key | I am confused about that |
| MutantTu1key | oh |
| MutantTu1key | that makes sense |
| MutantTu1key | kdesu is su'ing to become the super user |
| MutantTu1key | kdesudo uses the users password |
| MutantTu1key | mark it as closed? |
| kb9vqf | after gently explaining that :) |
| kb9vqf | closed/invalid |
| kb9vqf | also be sure to mention that removing kdesudo-trinity will fix the "problem" |
| kb9vqf | Xu_R: WOW, your compiler rules are STRICT!!! |
| Xu_R | kb9vqf: yea.......... blame rpmlint. again. I'm not going to get any official support without that. DX |
| kb9vqf | That's fine, you will probably help fix some corner case crashes |
| Xu_R | ok, now I really gotta run. bbiab |
| MutantTu1key | kb9vqf: don't you use -Werr? |
| MutantTu1key | if that is what you meant by compiler rules |
| kb9vqf | Mine never threw errors on invalid returns |
| MutantTu1key | ah |
| MutantTu1key | Hey, |
| MutantTu1key | I am part of the Trinity Desktop team working with Timothy Pearson. As |
| MutantTu1key | we prepare for the next release we are looking for people who are |
| MutantTu1key | packaging Trinity currently to start using our GIT repository. We |
| MutantTu1key | currently have a repository that hosts all of the build related files |
| MutantTu1key | for each distro and we want to make this a central hub for packagers. |
| MutantTu1key | Timothy Pearson has asked me to spearhead this task and so I am |
| MutantTu1key | reaching out to everyone for help. So what does this mean for you? |
| MutantTu1key | just uploading your latest package building scripts ( I am unfamiliar |
| MutantTu1key | with what Mandriva uses to do so ) to our tde-packaging repository. |
| MutantTu1key | Another thing we would like you to do is join the trinity-devel |
| MutantTu1key | mailing list, so that you can keep in touch with our latest |
| MutantTu1key | developments. |
| MutantTu1key | If you are interested in helping out, email me back and we can get you |
| MutantTu1key | setup with a user for the GIT repository. |
| MutantTu1key | Hoping to have you on board, |
| MutantTu1key | oh so sorry |
| MutantTu1key | did that go through? :| |
| MutantTu1key | I apologize. |
| kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Channel flooding isn't nice... |
| kb9vqf | distro should be distribution |
| MutantTu1key | I accidentaly pasted it. |
| kb9vqf | also mention that the Trinity source files (e.g. the 3.5.12 files or anything from our SVN tree) should NOT be uploaded to GIT |
| MutantTu1key | gah I alreadry sent it by accident also. |
| kb9vqf | packaging control files and distribution specific patches only |
| MutantTu1key | this just went from bad to terrible. |
| kb9vqf | oh well |
| kb9vqf | wait and see if you get a response |
| MutantTu1key | hopefully in my follow up email I can clarify |
| kb9vqf | then clarify |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| MutantTu1key | ok |
| KingSphinx | Hey, is there a way to get Trinity to let me access my Windows partition? It's always been telling me "Access denied" when I try to access it through Konqueror. |
| KingSphinx | The only way I can access it is if I mount it in GNOME first. |
| kb9vqf | launch konqueror as root via kdesudo |
| kb9vqf | there are some limits on mounting NTFS partitions |
| kb9vqf | gnome may override them somehow, but if they do they are violating the spirit of the limitation, which is designed to prevent corruption of NTFS paritions by ordinary users |
| kb9vqf | note: I have not tried to get at NTFS partitions in a while, so I can't help much |
| MutantTu1key | kb9vqf: we should get a F.A.Q. together as well as a wiki page explaining some common stuff. |
| MutantTu1key | I can start piecing it together. |
| kb9vqf | sounds good to me |
| kb9vqf | puting it on the Wiki is a good idea |
| kb9vqf | *putting |
| MutantTu1key | yeah |
| kb9vqf | I'm a bit too close to the project to know what good questions would be, but I can provide the answers if you want to throw a list of questions on the Wiki |
| MutantTu1key | and then we should have distro specific wiki pages. |
| MutantTu1key | Ok emails sent to franicos also. |
| kb9vqf | you have a wiki account, correct? |
| kb9vqf | all of this should go into the documentation web |
| MutantTu1key | I do |
| MutantTu1key | I can't work right now. |
| MutantTu1key | I have to go back to my useless php debugging job.... |
| MutantTu1key | but I emailed them so hopefully they will be interested. |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | thanks |
| kb9vqf | Xu_R: fixed in SVN revision r1249343 |
| MutantTu1key | kb9vqf: frankly I am happy we are using CMake partially |
| MutantTu1key | it is much cleaner than the autohell |
| kb9vqf | hehe |
| kb9vqf | I never was able to get Autotools to work for arts/kdelibs/kdebase |
| kb9vqf | something very subtle broke in there |
| MutantTu1key | good. |
| kb9vqf | no, it's not good, but fortunately CMake works instead :) |
| MutantTu1key | exactly |
| KingSphinx | Did the port of Qt3 to TQt help with moving to CMake over Autotools? |
| MutantTu1key | wasn't effected. |
| MutantTu1key | at least I thought it wasn't |
| kb9vqf | nope, didn't help at all |
| kb9vqf | TQt will allow Trinity to do some cool things later on |
| kb9vqf | it was a major under-the-hood alteration that users and even some developers shouldn't even see :) |
| MutantTu1key | :D |

| MutantTu1key | well yes. |
| MutantTu1key | and just general maintainabilty |

| Jota | Is there a date to release 3.13?? |
| *** zcram has quit IRC |
| kb9vqf | Jota: Soon :) |
| kb9vqf | try the nightly builds if you use Debian or Ubuntu |
| kb9vqf | they will be very close to the finished product |
| Jota | Can the night builds install via apt-get?? |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| Jota | I have a spare squeeze install I can use to test |
| kb9vqf | sounds good |
| kb9vqf | we'd like to know about bugs before 3.5.13 is released ;-) |
| Jota | what are the repositories for apt?? are there some instrutions? |
| kb9vqf | deb http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity-nightly-build-dependencies/ubuntu squeeze main |

| kb9vqf | deb-src http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity-nightly-builds/ubuntu squeeze main |
| kb9vqf | no instructions yet; put those lines in your /etc/apt/sources.list file and run apt-get update && apt-get upgrade |
| Jota | ok |
| Jota | will try tonight |
| kb9vqf | let us know if you run into any problems :) |
| Jota | hope there's no bugs ;-) |
| Jota | ah... in that squeeze install, I have a "old" kde 3.10 - from lenny... do I need to first delete it? |
| kb9vqf | I have absolutely no idea, sorry |
| kb9vqf | never tried it |
| kb9vqf | in theory it should be OK |
| kb9vqf | but it would also be the first place I would put blame if Trinity malfunctioned in any way ;-) |
| Jota | ahah I see... |
| Jota | I will delete old kde first |

| windowshasyou | Is there a more up to date repo for gentoo ebuilds? The sergi repo doesn't seem to have been updated in a month or so now. |
| kb9vqf | not that I know of |
| kb9vqf | and I have not heard from Serghei in quite a while |
| windowshasyou | alright. Thanks for answering. |
| KingSphinx | Can't you just build Trinity from that source tarball if necessary? |
| windowshasyou | KingSphinx: I can. I thought I'd ask first. I'm modifying sergis ebuilds to install to lib64 and changing the keywords first |
| Qu4Z | windowshasyou: As a fellow gentoo user, I'm interested in seeing how you get on. |
| Qu4Z | I'm currently trying to build the svn version, which is going okay for the most part, but I only have so much time |
| *** Xu_R is now known as Xu_R|ZNC |
| windowshasyou | Qu4Z: I nearly had it on my last attempt. The problem I ran into was that the kgreet plugin for kdm apparently got lost. |
| windowshasyou | gave up after a day or so |
| windowshasyou | this was 4 months ago |
| windowshasyou | I figured I'd try it again |
| windowshasyou | nothing else to do with the way the economy is |
| Qu4Z | Was that autotools version or cmake version? |
| Qu4Z | Autotools, I'd guess, if you wanted a usable desktop :P |
| windowshasyou | cmake |
| windowshasyou | my mistake at the time |
| KingSphinx | Was 3.5.12 built with CMake or Autotools? |
| Qu4Z | Oh? Okay. Yeah, fair enough. I'm doing CMake now, so that'll be interesting. |
| KingSphinx | Also, I can't wait for 3.5.13. It's so close to release! |
| Qu4Z | :) Yeah. |
| * KingSphinx would use Nightly, but I kinda value having a working system. :P |
| Qu4Z | I already have a working system :) It's called screen :P |
| windowshasyou | lol |
| windowshasyou | so I have to uninstall all of kde4 again because of conflicts with qt. I can't say that makes me sad |
| Qu4Z | In *theory* Trinity is compatible with kde4, lol |
| windowshasyou | I'm waiting for that qt4 wrapper to appear |
| KingSphinx | It is with Ubuntu, in my experience. |
| Qu4Z | Oh, right. That's probably more being unable to install qt4 and qt3 side-by-side, yeah? |
| windowshasyou | well you guys have aptitude for the package manager. portage has acting handicapped lately |
| windowshasyou | yep |
| windowshasyou | ever since they started doing away with slots... |
| Qu4Z | I only recently switched back to Gentoo. Are they doing away with slots? |
| Qu4Z | That seems... silly |
| windowshasyou | Qu4Z: They are trying to. |
| windowshasyou | They are also handicapping alot of other things "for the good of the users" |
| Qu4Z | :/ |
| Qu4Z | Yeah, I have heard that it's been going downhill lately |
| windowshasyou | they were trying to make python bindings mandatory for kde as well |
| Qu4Z | o_O |
| windowshasyou | got a little user revolt over that |
| KingSphinx | Seriously? Gentoo dumbing itself down? |
| Qu4Z | Have they talked to any of their users? |
| Qu4Z | Do they even know what their userbase looks like? o_O |
| KingSphinx | I thought the entire point of Gentoo was to provide as much control over the system as possible? |
| windowshasyou | Qu4Z: you could call it talking... in a way. They slam everyone that says people don't need that kind of hand holding |
| KingSphinx | If people want their hand held, they don't need to be using Gentoo. |
| windowshasyou | exactly |
| windowshasyou | The gentoo devs can't understand why funtoo is gaining traction now |
| *** Xu_R|ZNC is now known as Xu_R |
| windowshasyou | since the founder of gentoo created that and decided to keep things as minimal as possible. |
| Qu4Z | Exactly. It seems like customisability is one of the main features of gentoo. Abandoning that to go after *buntu's market share seems silly |
| KingSphinx | While I personally don't care for Gentoo (I just want something to work), I understand its purpose and why people use it. Abandoning that base to go for "derp simplicity! one-click install!" is a death trap, IMO. |
| Qu4Z | KingSphinx: I like Gentoo 'cause I don't have to install cups. |
| windowshasyou | Qu4Z: I remember asking in gentoo-kde if they were going to consider adding TDE to portage at some point... I was basically laughed at and kicked from the channel. |
| Qu4Z | :/ |
| Qu4Z | I hadn't even looked at funtoo |
| Qu4Z | It looks interesting, though |
| windowshasyou | I've been looking at it and LFS |
| windowshasyou | again* |
| KingSphinx | Gentoo seems to increasingly be becoming the "sekkret haxx0r club!!11!!1oneone" of Linux, judging from the userbase. |
| Qu4Z | Ah, yeah. LFS does look fun, but I do like portage |
| windowshasyou | KingSphinx: sure seems that way... got alot of script kiddies in the channels anymore |
| KingSphinx | IMO, Ubuntu's really no more restricted than any other version of Linux other than root being locked (and even then, sudo's got you covered). Those that deride Ubuntu users (or any other "easy-to-use") just because they didn't go through hours of compiling utils/kernel/programs are one of the big reasons Linux has such a negative perception in the public eye. |
| KingSphinx | </rant> |
| Qu4Z | I have no problem with Ubuntu. It's nice enough. It's just not as customisable (or I don't know how to customise it) without manually building my packages |
| KingSphinx | Sorry, just had to get that off my chest. Seen way too much animosity between the two camps on the Internet. Sad, really, since it's all Linux... |
| Qu4Z | As I understand it (and feel free to correct me) if my *buntu maintainer decides that vim has been compiled with X and cups support, then there's no way for me to say "Actually, I don't have X on this box. Just install it without X support" |
| Qu4Z | Fair enough. |
| Qu4Z | I have no animosity against it. I recommend it to people all the time :) (Less now, I don't much like unity) |
| Qu4Z | But it's not for me. |
| windowshasyou | nor I. |
| KingSphinx | If you use Gentoo, that's great... nay, awesome, really, but I can't stand it when people flame others just because of the distro they use. Not implicating you (you're very nice), just saying I've seen enough hate online and I'm sick of it is all. Can't Linux just get along? |
| Qu4Z | Yeah, I know. Distro-wars are kinda pointless :/ |
| KingSphinx | And Qu4Z, I'm not much of a fan of Unity either :P |
| KingSphinx | It works fine on my machine, it's just not quite my cup of tea. |
| Qu4Z | :) I suppose that's not surprising in #trinity-desktop lol |
| Qu4Z | Also, dammit. I just finished installing Gentoo on my new computer. Now I want to install funtoo instead :P |
| kb9vqf | #trinity-desktop....for all those I-hate-smartphone-desktops misfits :) |
| windowshasyou | Qu4Z: lol |
| KingSphinx | Did you remember to make your /home and /root separate? |
| Qu4Z | /home and / you mean? |
| KingSphinx | Yeah, that's what I meant. >_>; |
| * kb9vqf notes that all distributions are welcome here...we just may not have much knowledge about them yet ;-) |
| Qu4Z | All good :) Yeah. I actually have all my data under /data on a separate drive. Then I symlink in ~/pics ~/video ~/music and ~/projects |
| KingSphinx | I know, I welcome all kinds as well, that rant was just something I've wanted to get off my chest for a while. |
| windowshasyou | Qu4Z: BTW, the final straw for me with the gentoo-kde4 people is when they started talking about making mono mandatory |
| Qu4Z | It's nice to start with a clean set of .* dirs |
| Qu4Z | windowshasyou: Seriously? That's some rubbish right there. |
| KingSphinx | I actually don't mind Mono, but mandatory? That's stupid. |
| windowshasyou | seriously |
| Qu4Z | I like C# as a language, it's fairly decent. I sometimes install mono apps, but... requiring it seems a bit silly. |
| windowshasyou | to me, mono is a big no no. The whole reason for me using Linux is to avoid MS stuff. |
| windowshasyou | I don't need something installed that potentially gives MS a reason to mess with my systems |
| Qu4Z | Yeah, fair enough. And I support that. Practicality dictates I install mono sometimes but the point of Gentoo for me is being configurable |
| KingSphinx | What exactly is so bad about Mono? I've never understood that |
| Qu4Z | KingSphinx: Speculation that it's a trap by MS |
| kb9vqf | that is the KDE4 mentality in a nutshell...require as many bloated backend libraries as possible, all to make the frontend code overly simple |
| windowshasyou | KingSphinx: Mono is a derivative of an MS language. Its one of the things that came out of the Novell/MS alliance |
| Qu4Z | Yeah. I hope we're making an effort to debloat KDE3, or at least keep it as debloated as possible. |
| windowshasyou | and now they have the founder of gnome, that miguel whatever hooked on it. |
| KingSphinx | embrace, extend, extinguish at work? |
| kb9vqf | yep, we're very close to the base system libraries right now :) |
| windowshasyou | pretty much. I've always thought of it as a control via proxy technique |
| kb9vqf | I think the worst thing we use is HAL |
| windowshasyou | last time I tried to get it all going, it didn't require hal |
| Qu4Z | I tried to install qt3 with --system-libjpeg --system-libmng --system-libpng etc, but it didn't like that very much :/ |
| windowshasyou | has it been reinstated? |
| KingSphinx | Any chance of converting to UDisks/UPower? |
| kb9vqf | It doesn't technically NEED hal, but udisks/upower have a horrid API |
| kb9vqf | so unless someone sponsors the work probably not anytime soon |
| KingSphinx | Ah |
| Qu4Z | Sponsors or does, presumably. |
| kb9vqf | there was a discussion on this channel about that not too long ago :) |
| KingSphinx | Well, I've never really noticed a difference between the two... |
| kb9vqf | and yes, either one is fine :) |
| kb9vqf | On the programming end there is a big difference |
| windowshasyou | I don't care much if udisks works with TDE. I just want a desktop that doesn't keep a dual core at 25 percent usage constatly |
| Qu4Z | Like I said, I'm trying to get the building going on my box at the moment. Once that's working I should at least be able to provide testing/bug reports |
| windowshasyou | and makes my gpu hot enough to fry eggs |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| Qu4Z | Hopefully do some dev work, too, but it'd be my first time contributing to any project this big. |
| kb9vqf | I'm idling at < 5% CPU now :) |
| KingSphinx | My graphics card idles at 70 degrees Celcius. |
| windowshasyou | mine is supposed to idle at 40 C |
| kb9vqf | it's not idle then :-P |
| windowshasyou | and it does when I'm using kde3 or xfce4 |
| windowshasyou | when kde4 is running, its way higher than that |
| windowshasyou | even with desktop effects turned off |
| KingSphinx | Then again, I think the fan might be dead on my card. For a while after I figured out the fan was unplugged, it idled at 60, but a few months later, it's back to 70. |
| KingSphinx | Fortunately, it never goes above 80, even after playing Team Fortress 2 maxed out. |
| kb9vqf | the way I look at it this project is here as a sort of technical opposite to KDE4/Windows 8/Gnome 3/Apple iOS |
| kb9vqf | if you want the bling use one of those ;-) |
| KingSphinx | A desktop environment for actual desktops? |
| kb9vqf | perish the thought |
| windowshasyou | what a concept... |
| KingSphinx | I still wish KDE4 could've managed to port Kicker over, then it'd be a bit more "desktop-like" |
| kb9vqf | but they don't *want* the desktop concept |
| kb9vqf | and it shows everywhere |
| windowshasyou | maybe kde 5 will work out better |
| kb9vqf | I don't even like using any KDE4 *apps* |
| kb9vqf | they are light years behind equivalent Windows apps |
| Qu4Z | My main concern with KDE4 is that everything is basically apps |
| Qu4Z | Well, that and the resource usage |
| KingSphinx | The whole "semantic desktop" concept is cool and all, but I just want a functional desktop. :) |
| kb9vqf | apps instead of applications |
| Qu4Z | Yeah |
| kb9vqf | I like applications :) |
| Qu4Z | Everything is for one purpose only, and doesn't integrate with anything else |
| kb9vqf | you know, those things you can sit down with and accomplish an entire workflow with only one or two? |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| Qu4Z | I mean, I know the unix philosophy is everything should only do one thing, but A) it should do it well, and B) the idea is you can compose thigns |
| kb9vqf | you need a very good desktop to glue all those splinters together |
| Qu4Z | That's why I love KParts and KIO |
| kb9vqf | a smartphone UI can't efficently paste all the pieces back together |
| Qu4Z | I'm not suggesting we should have different apps for everything. That works for unix commands, but... |
| KingSphinx | Plasma tries to do everything for the desktop, with mixed results at best. |
| windowshasyou | speaking of KIO, I wonder if TDE Kio has been patched to work with glibc 2.14 |
| kb9vqf | ? |
| kb9vqf | what was the problem? |
| windowshasyou | kb9vqf: upstream deleted a ton of old code and rearranged some stuff |
| KingSphinx | KDE4 got rid of KIO slaves? |
| Qu4Z | KingSphinx: No, but somehow it feels like it |
| kb9vqf | upstream? |
| kb9vqf | I don't get it |
| windowshasyou | it broke alot of stuff including all versions of kde 4 till 4 |
| kb9vqf | what is failing in TDE? |
| windowshasyou | 4.7.0 |
| windowshasyou | kb9vqf: nothing yet. I'm just wondering if KIO has been patched for it. |
| kb9vqf | well, no |
| kb9vqf | if nothing is broken then no patches are needed |
| Qu4Z | KingSphinx: Somehow, in KDE3 it always felt like I could fire up an image editor, get the open file dialog, paste in a url, and it'd open it just fine. |
| windowshasyou | If not, I'll be sending a patch upstream |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | send it to the trinity-devel mailing list |
| kb9vqf | it will get trapped and we can apply it |
| windowshasyou | alright. |
| windowshasyou | specifically it was the nfs kio that broke |
| windowshasyou | pretty useless for some people, but an aggravation if you are running the latest glibc |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | I'd be glad to look at the patch |
| kb9vqf | when will you be able to send it |
| kb9vqf | ? |
| windowshasyou | If it bombs out, I'll write one and send it probably tomorrow |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | I'll keep an eye out for it :) |
| kb9vqf | IIRC there was some problem with nfs and possibly fish now that you mention it |
| kb9vqf | so I will see if your patch can be applied to other kioslaves |
| windowshasyou | sounds good to me |
| kb9vqf | I am on glibc 2.12 so I haven't run into it myself yet |
| kb9vqf | well , that and 2.13 |
| Qu4Z | Yeah, I remember fish being broken. |
| windowshasyou | I know that qt3 will have to be patched if gcc 4.6 or later becomes the standard |
| kb9vqf | we maintain Qt3 |
| kb9vqf | and it has been patched already |
| kb9vqf | it compiles quite nicely :) |
| windowshasyou | oh right on. |
| Qu4Z | I built it with 4.6.something yesterday, iirc |
| Qu4Z | Actually, not sure what version I have installed, but the latest ~amd64 Gentoo version, anyway |
| kb9vqf | Absorbing Qt3 has allowed Trinity to fix some age-old bugs |
| kb9vqf | because we can now alter the Qt3 API slightly :) |
| windowshasyou | does it finally support threads? |
| kb9vqf | I have no idea |
| windowshasyou | I know the last trolltech release broke when trying to compile with it. |
| kb9vqf | It probably does |
| kb9vqf | you'd have to try though |
| kb9vqf | I don't remember OTOH if Ubuntu enabled threading |
| kb9vqf | I seem to remember they did |
| * kb9vqf is referring to the Debian package build control files |
| windowshasyou | wow... It just finished compiling with threading enabled... I was half expecting it to bomb out. |
| Qu4Z | windowshasyou: It works |
| Qu4Z | Just don't try using -system-lib<various image formats> |
| windowshasyou | lol I used the safe defaults. |
| windowshasyou | I don't want to be up half the night recompiling because it doesn't like the system libs |
| Qu4Z | Fair enough :) From memory there were a couple of things I wanted that I manually enabled. |
| Qu4Z | Hah, yeah. |
| kb9vqf | There have been a lot of improvements in our Qt3 version :) |
| kb9vqf | This is not your grandpa's KDE3 desktop or libraries |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| windowshasyou | kb9vqf: I can see that. I think its great. Some group is finally listening to the complaints and doing something about it. |
| windowshasyou | and not slamming people |
| kb9vqf | We aim to please |
| windowshasyou | other groups could take lessons from you on that. |
| * kb9vqf is embarrased :) |
| kb9vqf | I keep hoping Linux will straighten out |
| kb9vqf | maybe once the smartphone craze dies down a bit |
| windowshasyou | likewise. |
| KingSphinx | You have Android to blame. It's a double-edged sword... |
| Qu4Z | Man... I wanna head home from work and compile things now >_< |
| Qu4Z | Can I post build errors here and get help? :) |
| kb9vqf | Of course |
| kb9vqf | if we're around that is |
| Qu4Z | I had some issue building kdelibs yesterday, but can't remember what. |
| kb9vqf | be sure to use pastebin |
| Qu4Z | Of course :) I was more asking whether this was also an appropriate venue for support |
| kb9vqf | yes it is |
| Qu4Z | Hah, yeah. I'll try not to spam up the chat more than I already do by talking excessively :P |
| kb9vqf | this is the general anything-related-to-the-Trinity-desktop channel |
| Qu4Z | Neat :) |
| kb9vqf | talk about anything you like |
| Qu4Z | Oh, random point: How do I get cmake to tell me what options are available? |
| Qu4Z | It took a bit of guessing before I got to -DWITH_CUPS=OFF |
| kb9vqf | I don't know if any way other than looking in the CMakeLists.txt files |
| windowshasyou | thats the only way I know of |
| kb9vqf | in fact, you could search for all CMakeLists.txt files that contain "WITH_" |
| Qu4Z | Yeah, now that I know it's WITH_ that helps a lot |
| kb9vqf | because all Trinity options start with WITH_ |
| Qu4Z | Okay, that's cool |
| kb9vqf | np |
| Qu4Z | Except -DUSE_QT3 |
| kb9vqf | BTW I keep an eye on things here usually so that I can tell if we are ticking off our userbase or making them happy ;-) |
| kb9vqf | same with Xu_R and MutantTurkey AFAIK |
| Qu4Z | Neat :) Well, I'm on the making happy list :) I'll be happier once I actually get it running, but the screenshots and feature lists look awesome :) |
| kb9vqf | hehe |
| kb9vqf | there are more features in SVN now |
| windowshasyou | hey, as long as it works and it doesn't use an inordinate amount of resouces... oh and doesn't depend on gtk, I'm happy with it. |
| Qu4Z | And 3.5.10 makes me happy for the most part. Except that konqueror is pretty 50/50 regarding rendering pages correctly :/ |
| kb9vqf | gtk stinks |
| kb9vqf | yeah, that's a known problem |
| Qu4Z | Yeah, I realised :) It's fairly easy to reproduce. |
| windowshasyou | gtk is one big mess of spaghetti dependencies |
| kb9vqf | I would love to switch to something like Webkit, but there are a few more changes that need to be made before that can even be entertained |
| KingSphinx | Konq was good for its time, but it's starting to show its age as a web browser. |
| Qu4Z | Are there plans to port to webkit, or are you gonna maintain-- ah, you pre-empted me? :) |
| kb9vqf | Konq is still an excellent everything-but-a-Web-browser tool |
| kb9vqf | The web browser is just a plugin |
| KingSphinx | Current KDE4 version of Konq is a lot better browser-wise though. |
| kb9vqf | a plugin that can be rewritten to call something else |
| Qu4Z | Yeah. Konq is amazing. I think it really exemplifies waht I like about KDE3 |
| windowshasyou | KingSphinx: have you tried the 4.7 konq? |
| kb9vqf | well yes, and it's also a lot worse of a file manager :-P |
| windowshasyou | that thing crashes just loading google |
| Qu4Z | But the web-browser support working would be neat, too. |
| Qu4Z | Otherwise I have to use chrome, or ff. |
| kb9vqf | Honestly Chrome is a nice browser |
| kb9vqf | Part of me wonders if it could be embedded in Konq |
| KingSphinx | Just wish I could get Chromium to actually let me save stuff while in Trinity. |
| kb9vqf | That is probably fixed in SVN |
| Qu4Z | I've been getting the impression chromium's been getting slower, actually. But agreed, it is nice. |
| kb9vqf | not sure |
| Qu4Z | If we could embed it, that would be an A+ solution to the rendering thing :) |
| windowshasyou | cool.. kdelibs is building with cmake |
| Qu4Z | windowshasyou: Is building or has built? |
| windowshasyou | is building |
| Qu4Z | I got part way through, then died. So I went to bed. |
| windowshasyou | its at 8 percent right now |
| Qu4Z | OK. |
| Qu4Z | Good luck :) I want to head home and fix mine now, but sadly, I can't. |
| kb9vqf | just pastebin the error and poke me with it |
| windowshasyou | lol I've been there... spend all my time at work day dreaming and making lists of things I want to fix |
| kb9vqf | or send it to the trinity-devel mailing list |
| Qu4Z | kb9vqf: Will do, thanks. I'll have a crack at fixing it myself first. It's probably nothing too hard, just something I missed late last night |
| kb9vqf | sure |
| kb9vqf | I would appreciate that |
| kb9vqf | and if it needs patching send the patch to the trinity-devel list |
| kb9vqf | that way it could be included in SVN :) |
| windowshasyou | Qu4Z: Are you running a multilib system? |
| Qu4Z | Yeah |
| windowshasyou | that might account for it. I'm on no-multilib |
| Qu4Z | Oh, okay. How's that working for you? I find every now and then I want *some* -32 thing. Like dosbox |
| windowshasyou | So far, so good. I've used no-multilib for 2 years now without issue |
| windowshasyou | The system seemed to be a bit more stable for me going that route |
| Qu4Z | Oh, neat. I'd kinda like to... all these 32-bit compat packages feel a bit crufty, but... :/ |
| Qu4Z | Well, I'll bear that in mind. Maybe next install I'll try going the no-multilib route. |
| windowshasyou | Once Carmack releases the doom3 sources, I won't have any regrets. Hopefully he keeps his promise of releasing it around the 13th of next month |
| windowshasyou | Last time I emailed him, his reply said the only thing holding it up was a creative labs patent. |
| windowshasyou | over that EAX stuff |
| Qu4Z | Neat :) Does that mean you could run doom3 under multilib? |
| windowshasyou | Once its opensourced and the ioquake group gets it, it means that you won't need multilib to run it. that group created a sparc, solaris, nomultilib, smartphone port of quake3 |
| windowshasyou | their revised source runs pretty well. |
| windowshasyou | they have ported it to other archs as well |
| Qu4Z | Neat :) Didn't know that. Not much of a gamer, myself. Or bioware and SNES, when I do. |
| windowshasyou | Is bioware still around? |
| windowshasyou | last I heard, ea-games wanted to buy them out |
| Qu4Z | Sorta :/ I think someone bought them, but then left them some freedom. I mostly play the older stuff :P |
| windowshasyou | oh ok. I buy the IDSoftware games because they have a tradition of supporting non windows OS |
| windowshasyou | Used to do the same thing for epic games till they had their hissy fit |
| Qu4Z | Yeah, it's true. I do approve of that :) FPS just isn't raelly my poison. |
| KingSphinx | Hissy fit? |
| Qu4Z | Epic games == Epic MegaGames? |
| windowshasyou | KingSphinx: Qu4Z: yeah |
| windowshasyou | they basically pulled the plug on the ut3 linux client and then went public saying all computer users are pirates |
| Qu4Z | :/ |
| windowshasyou | and they won't be making any games for anything but consoles now |
| Qu4Z | Man, localpatch in funtoo is exactly what I've wanted many times in gentoo. |
| KingSphinx | Psshh, screw 'em. |
| windowshasyou | after they had slapped the tux logo on the ut3 box and told everyone they were working with icculous to make the nix and mac port |
| windowshasyou | he got as far as making a working installer that was relatively bug free, then epic pulled the plug |
| windowshasyou | they refused to give anyone a refund for buying it over the tux logo |
| Qu4Z | That's kinda a dick move |
| windowshasyou | lol yep |
| windowshasyou | 45 percent complete |
| windowshasyou | 47 now |

| Qu4Z | I like the suggestion that to install we execute "make install || exit 1" |
| Qu4Z | Why yes, I do want to close my shell in frustration if I've managed to struggle through all of configuring and building, and then the INSTALL step fails |
| Qu4Z | Hm... I can't compile kdelibs/dcop/dcopserver.cpp because HAVE_SYS_STAT_H isn't being set, even though I have a sys/stat.h |
| Qu4Z | Anyone know what's responsible for setting that macro? Presumably cmake, in some way shape or form... |
| Qu4Z | (if I comment out the #ifdef HAVE_SYS_STAT_H around the include, it builds fine) |
| Qu4Z | Ah, looks like it's in CMakeLists.txt. I guess I should learn cmake at some point :/ |
| Qu4Z | Well, I can't replicate it anymore. If I encounter it again, I've learned a lot about cmake in the last half hour :P |
| Qu4Z | Actually, I spoke too soon |
| Qu4Z | The config.h is being generated fine, but it's not included when building, because the first -I is -I/opt/qt3/include |
| Qu4Z | Hope I'm not annoying anyone by liveblogging my attempts in the chan :P I think the troubles I encounter in the process may be useful for posterity |

| *** ar has joined #trinity-desktop |
| *** ar has joined #trinity-desktop |
| kb9vqf | I know |
| kb9vqf | and no, they are not compatible |
| MutantTu1key | but are kcm files compiled? |
| MutantTu1key | or are they like xml files? |
| kb9vqf | they are compiled |
| MutantTu1key | shucks |
| kb9vqf | they are C++ kparts plugins |
| MutantTu1key | okay |
| MutantTu1key | so there is no way we can even do it |
| kb9vqf | I have no idea why Flash did that in the first place :-/ |
| MutantTu1key | I don't use flash anyway. |
| MutantTu1key | why? probably one of the devels uses KDE4 |
| kb9vqf | that expains some of Flash's bloat and bugginess ;-) |
| kb9vqf | (the fact that a dev likes KDE4) |
| hazridi | nah, flash is older than KDE 4 by like 7 years... its just old, and crap, and from before we cared about such things like code quality |
| kb9vqf | It's a bit ridiculous when modern computers still choke on flash apps from 5 years ago |
| MutantTu1key | flash in general is ridiculous |
| kb9vqf | so KDE4 got its ideas from Flash? Interesting :) |
| MutantTu1key | hahaha |
| kb9vqf | KDE4 does remind me of a bad Flash game... |
| kb9vqf | never put my finger on it till now |
| hazridi | I dont honestly think KDE4 is that bad |
| kb9vqf | I do :) |
| hazridi | it's not gnome |
| kb9vqf | Well, Gnome is in a class all by itself |
| kb9vqf | It's a DE especially designed for idiots |
| kb9vqf | /rant |
| hazridi | I'd be happy if I could get oxygen to work in trinity ;-) |
| kb9vqf | You like the colors, widgets and such? |
| kb9vqf | I think there are one or two Oxygen knockoffs floating around |
| hazridi | don't care about widgets |
| * kb9vqf hates them personally |
| hazridi | I like the oxygen theme |
| kb9vqf | well, the theme encompasses colors, window handles, general interaction, and widget style |
| kb9vqf | so I would need to know which one(s) you like :) |
| hazridi | the window decoration |
| kb9vqf | ah |
| hazridi | colors also I suppose |
| hazridi | I use the grey color on my desktop and in KDE all the apps look perfect.. actually with oxygen-gtk even gtk apps look mostly like KDE apps now |
| kb9vqf | have a look on kde-look and see if you like anything there |
| hazridi | I did try |
| hazridi | Most of it just failed to work, heh |
| kb9vqf | Personally I always found Oxygen to use about 3x the x/y space (e.g. 9x the area) of an equivalent desktop from another manufacturer |
| hazridi | for some reason even plastik is busted |
| kb9vqf | plastik is in Trinity already |
| kb9vqf | and we do have the GTK engine |
| MutantTu1key | I find the smaller the space the more i like the theme. |
| kb9vqf | a lot of GTK apps blend in almost perfectly |
| MutantTu1key | I actually think Mac OS X does an very good job at this. |
| MutantTu1key | their widgets (while I don't like them all) and Icons are very minimal and easy to work with and recognize |
| MutantTu1key | they are pretty lean on their space usage |
| hazridi | Oxygen doesn't seem to have large decorations to me at all |
| kb9vqf | MutantTu1key: Yes, but their interaction is quite bad |
| MutantTu1key | kb9vqf: agreed. |
| kb9vqf | the window decorations are OK I guess |
| kb9vqf | but the widgets stink' |
| MutantTu1key | I have been using this mac for the entire summer at my internship |
| MutantTu1key | it's terrible |
| MutantTu1key | it's an old G5. slow as molassas. |
| MutantTu1key | molassass or whatever. |
| MutantTu1key | definitely spelled wrong. |
| kb9vqf | IIRC we have a nice Mac theme somewhere :) |
| kb9vqf | if you like that look |
| MutantTu1key | one thinkI like about mac is they distinguish between applications for switching |
| hazridi | The only widgets I use are: task bar, clock, system tray, and calendar (because it comes up when I click on the clock) |
| MutantTu1key | so Alt+tab moves between apps Alt+` moves between windows in the application |
| hazridi | and I don't really have any ideological problem with widgets... i mean, if you want a system tray on your desktop, put it there and it works there. makes sense to me |
| hazridi | of course the system I use KDE 4 on has 8 gb of ram |
| MutantTu1key | just because you have space doesn't give an excuse for crappy software. |
| hazridi | usually about 6.5 GB at any time is just straight up allocated to file cache. |
| MutantTu1key | ... |
| hazridi | (it's free) |
| MutantTu1key | oh |
| MutantTu1key | i thought you meant some sort of kde4 thing |
| MutantTu1key | not regular unix caching |
| hazridi | oh, no |
| hazridi | I turn off all that semantic desktop crap |
| MutantTu1key | my desktop caches all its ram basically |
| kb9vqf | isn't that most of KDE4? ;-) |
| MutantTu1key | after a few days of use |
| hazridi | nah |
| MutantTu1key | 2GB is more than plenty of ram. |
| hazridi | just some widgets and KDE PIM which I dont use since I use gmail |
| hazridi | I actually do have a 2GB notebook running aptosid and kde4 on a partition, its pretty usable there as well |
| kb9vqf | I guess I should rephrase that...I thought the "semantic desktop" (whatever that means) was one of KDE4's main selling points |
| hazridi | all my other notebooks are on trinity though |
| hazridi | since they are slower ;) |
| hazridi | it is |
| hazridi | but that doesn't mean you have to use it |
| hazridi | it's still not gnome |
| kb9vqf | not yet anyway |
| hazridi | you don't even need to have nepomuk or kde pim even installed |
| kb9vqf | But you can't get rid of Plasma, which is the thing I hate most... |
| MutantTu1key | plasma is the dumbest thing ever. |
| kb9vqf | stupid thing looks like it belongs on a smart phone |
| MutantTu1key | and nepomuk is hellish. |
| hazridi | by plasma you mean the entire draw layer? |
| kb9vqf | and method of interaction with the desktop |
| MutantTu1key | by plasma we mean the infernal piece of crap that wastes our resources. |
| hazridi | Qt? :P |
| kb9vqf | I prefer to increase my desktop space when I have free CPU resources instead of sucking them down into useless eye candy :) |
| kb9vqf | that is, the resolution of the desktop |
| kb9vqf | and I meant CPU/GPU |
| MutantTu1key | I did just notice that i have like 1100 packages installed |
| MutantTu1key | because I never remove uneeded dependencies. |
| MutantTu1key | just getting around to that |
| hazridi | heh |
| hazridi | I'm running on sid, and this installation is like 5 years old |
| hazridi | I'm sure my package count is something like 7000 |
| MutantTu1key | 4 year installation here |
| MutantTu1key | meeting bbinabit |
| hazridi | I have a LOT of libraries and headers installed |
| hazridi | kb9vqf: I turn off compositing, I'm not a total freak. Actually I was pretty unhappy with KDE 4 until 4.6 which fixed all the UI lagginess |
| kb9vqf | I'm not trying to insult you :) |
| kb9vqf | just trying to figure out why anyone likes KDE4 at all |
| kb9vqf | (other than certain freaks who can't use a computer unless it looks and acts like their phone) |
| kb9vqf | I guess if you turn off the semantic desktop and compositing, what exactly is the draw over Trinity? |
| hazridi | Well, I'm used to it |
| hazridi | Trinity obviously not in sid's package manager ;) |
| kb9vqf | ah, ok |
| kb9vqf | so it's more of a lack of official distro support than anything else |
| hazridi | Well, I installed KDE4 because it was that, gnome, xfce, or lxde |
| kb9vqf | right |
| kb9vqf | we really should try to get ourselves in upstream soon |
| kb9vqf | downstream rather |
| kb9vqf | :-P |
| hazridi | and I'm productive enough with it that I'm not messing around with the DE on my main dev machine |
| kb9vqf | sure |
| hazridi | I still miss a lot of KDE 3 features |
| kb9vqf | although sometime you should use a mouse odomoeter and see which desktop makes you move your wrist the most ;-) |
| hazridi | like having krunner files work over SMB |
| kb9vqf | *odometer |
| hazridi | well, I have a 5600 dpi mouse |
| kb9vqf | nice :) |
| kb9vqf | you get my drift though |
| hazridi | I traverse entire 3840 pixel desktop in 3/4th of an inch |
| hazridi | I mean, it took until 4.6 for Konsole 4 to have the popup context menu when you right click a tab |
| kb9vqf | I know |
| kb9vqf | ugh |
| hazridi | konqueror still is nowhere near what it used to be |
| kb9vqf | The funny thing is I actually like touchscreen technology, but I think it should be used to augment the desktop, not replace it |
| hazridi | they moved to that dolphin crap |
| kb9vqf | you do realize that the lack of popup menus is a) they are hard to implement correctly, especially in Qt4 and b) touchscreens don't have a right mouse button |
| kb9vqf | too much focus on the touchscreen |
| kb9vqf | going from three mouse buttons to one is not a good thing ;-) |
| hazridi | I just got the impression they lost too many devs after the KDE 4 fiasco so they are just understaffed |
| hazridi | touchscreens have long press |
| hazridi | which is the equivalent of the RMB ;-) |
| kb9vqf | yes, but I put the emphasis on *long* |
| kb9vqf | you can ususally put in a few normal taps by the time the RMB registers |
| kb9vqf | so that's how the design the interface |
| * kb9vqf knows from experience |
| kb9vqf | not only are they understaffed, they don't want to "clutter up" their new, "clean" code with "useless" and/or "old fashioned" features |
| hazridi | It's a little weird to make the desktop touch friendly when Qt hasn't even been ported to android properly, but whatever |
| kb9vqf | I know :-P |
| kb9vqf | such is the nature of fads |
| kb9vqf | underlying some of it though is the fact that Qt4 is designed to be touchscreen friendly |
| kb9vqf | I have tried to implement some basic desktop-type functions on it and it leaves a lot to be desired |
| hazridi | The only Qt coding i've ever done is when I fixed Amarok to work with my ipod touch, lol |
| kb9vqf | Qt3 or Qt4? |
| hazridi | coincidentally, I also make it work with the iphone and ipad, cuz i'm a tool |
| hazridi | qt4, it was amarok 2.3.0 from the GIT repo |
| kb9vqf | ah |
| kb9vqf | I don't mind personally regarding the Apple stuff |
| kb9vqf | The iphone/ipad are great little devices |
| hazridi | I'm not really a fan |
| kb9vqf | I just wouldn't give up my computer for one ;-) |
| hazridi | I prefer Android |
| kb9vqf | well, yes |
| hazridi | I actually hate the ipod touch |
| kb9vqf | but for a single purpose "it just works" embedded-type device they are pretty good |
| hazridi | since someone broke libgpod in debian and the only machine it works on is my trinity notebook running stable |
| kb9vqf | fun |
| hazridi | I've spent most of the time I've had it unable to have any computer talk to it unless I booted into windows |
| kb9vqf | so it works in Trinity? |
| kb9vqf | or is Trinity broken as well? |
| kb9vqf | I would like to fix it if it is broken... |
| hazridi | I had to fix it, but it works with amarok in trinity |
| hazridi | It is a debian bug |
| hazridi | The udev rules are wrong, I think |
| hazridi | I don't remember exactly |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | we use HAL and are not affected by the udev problems |
| kb9vqf | in fact this is one reason we still use HAL |
| kb9vqf | it tends to be more reliable right now |
| hazridi | well |
| hazridi | libgpod has never had HAL support |
| hazridi | I guess it's libimobiledevice now |
| *** windowshasyou has joined #trinity-desktop |
| kb9vqf | ah |
| kb9vqf | I have no idea then :) |
| kb9vqf | I don't own anything from Apple |
| kb9vqf | never saw a need to listen to music while walking :) |
| hazridi | I just use my phone now, it's a much nicer device. |
| hazridi | Plug it in over USB, I can use mass storage... or I can just take the memory card out and put files on it |
| hazridi | will never go back to an apple product |
| windowshasyou | http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-6794658.html?sid=14480a290b3082839d83d69189097949 I think this is the best rant I've seen about Gentoo lately. |
| MutantTu1key | isn't libimobiledevice doing well though? |
| windowshasyou | kb9vqf: I got tde to install last night, but none of it was executable. Has anyone else reported an issue when using the cmake builds? |
| kb9vqf | no |
| windowshasyou | alright. I guess I'll be rewriting most of the sergei ebuilds then. |
| kb9vqf | oh fun |
| kb9vqf | do you want to put the fixes in our git? |
| windowshasyou | I might once I confirm the issues are with the ebuilds. |
| windowshasyou | even a chmod a+x didn't fix it. Konsole wasn't excutable, neither was konqueror, or anything else. |
| kb9vqf | that sounds like something else |
| kb9vqf | I have had that before when trying to execute amd64 binaries on a i386 system |
| kb9vqf | for example |
| kb9vqf | all I can say is make sure your gcc flags are not too aggressive |
| kb9vqf | and that you are compiling for the architecture you think you are |
| windowshasyou | I may be wrong, but I would think that when compiling from source, if it wasn't a strict amd64 build, gcc wouldn't finish building. |
| windowshasyou | as for my cflags, its just march=native -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer |
| windowshasyou | but yeah, I'll reexamine everything later |
| windowshasyou | its too hot right now to attempt to compile anything |
| MutantTu1key | your cflags are fine |
| windowshasyou | kb9vqf: Do you know if TDE supports prelinking? |
| MutantTu1key | prelinking? |
| MutantTu1key | windowshasyou: yeah also you should stick your ebuilds in our git. |
| windowshasyou | ‎http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prelink |
| windowshasyou | I will. I just noticed some other things wrong with the TDE ebuild. He didn't specify paths either |
| windowshasyou | I realized that hes said he was guessing at it. So I'm not really complaining. He got off to a good start with them. |
| kb9vqf | no idea, sorry |
| kb9vqf | there is no technical reason why we should break with prelink |
| MutantTu1key | oh |
| MutantTu1key | okay I know what prelinking is |
| windowshasyou | its ok. He should have added in something like this |
| MutantTu1key | its just preloading libraries at startup correct? |
| windowshasyou | PATH=${PREFIX}/bin |
| windowshasyou | ROOTPATH=${PREFIX}/sbin:${PREFIX}/bin |
| windowshasyou | LDPATH=${libdirs} |
| windowshasyou | MANPATH=${PREFIX}/share/man |
| windowshasyou | CONFIG_PROTECT="${PREFIX}/share/config ${PREFIX}/env ${PREFIX}/shutdown /usr/sh$ |
| windowshasyou | #KDE_IS_PRELINKED=1 |
| windowshasyou | MutantTu1key: yep. basically. |
| MutantTu1key | then the answer is yes. |
| MutantTu1key | rather - why not? |
| windowshasyou | I wasn't sure if it had been removed or was broke by a patch or something like that. |
| MutantTu1key | I want to see if it works with UPX |
| windowshasyou | I figured I'd ask before I included anything |
| windowshasyou | MutantTu1key: that might be kinda fun to play with |
| MutantTu1key | upx rocks for certain stuff |
| MutantTu1key | It definitely helped on my staticly linked browser |
| MutantTu1key | as well as giant blobs like firefod |
| MutantTu1key | firefox' |
| *** TokRa has quit IRC |
| windowshasyou | another probably stupid question; Has support for archs like mips, sparc, etc been removed, broken, or anything like that? |
| MutantTu1key | not tested |
| MutantTu1key | we don't have the hardware |
| windowshasyou | ok. I'll set them as ~ then just so one doesn't have to do it later |
| windowshasyou | heres what I've got so far. http://pastebin.com/hN8nJWb8 a little over double the size of the old one for tdelibs |
| MutantTu1key | kdelibs.... |
| MutantTu1key | windowshasyou: we are keeping the original naming conventions |
| windowshasyou | ok |
| MutantTu1key | and instead doing like trinity-kdebase trinity-kdelibs |
| MutantTu1key | and so on |
| MutantTu1key | DESCRIPTION should refer to trinity instead. |
| MutantTu1key | Homepage should be Trinitydesktop.org |
| windowshasyou | ok. I'll change it. |
| MutantTu1key | :) |
| windowshasyou | for description, I just changed it to Trinity Libs. Does anyone have any better suggestions? |
| windowshasyou | ugh! and I just realized I made all kinds of cmake errors |
| MutantTu1key | that is good |
| MutantTu1key | that you changed it |
| MutantTu1key | what sort of errors? |

| KingSphinx | Any have any idea as to why my external disks auto-mount upon starting Trinity? I suspect GNOME issues (it usually happens after I see a flicker of my Unity wallpaper), but I'm not entirely sure. |

| Vasistha | I'm still on debian lenny, dreading the upgrade to kde4 (after seeing it on a couple other systems). Someone recommended I check out trinity. Is it possibly to basically migrate all my KDE3 settings to trinity? |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | all you need to do is move the ~/.kde3 folder to ~/.trinity after installing Trinity |
| kb9vqf | nothing is absolutely guaranteeed, but it should keep most of your settings :) |
| Vasistha | kb9vqf: wow, that sounds really great. thank you so much. |
| kb9vqf | np |
| kb9vqf | if you run into problems or have questions feel free to ask them here or on the mailing list |
| kb9vqf | also it is always a good idea to back up your machine before performing a large upgrade like the KDE3->Trinity move :) |
| Vasistha | I suppose it's worth asking... my biggest problem with any kde app is kmail-- I use offlineimap, and because kmail can't directly access maildir folders without DELETING them and moving them, I have to go through dovecot which always seems really silly |
| Vasistha | yes I will back up! :D |
| kb9vqf | I have never had problems with Kmail on IMAP, but that doesn't mean they don't exist ;-) |
| kb9vqf | If you do experience undesired behaviour like that please file a bug report |
| Vasistha | oh! alright, I'll talk with the offlineimap folks about it. I guess a lot of old KDE bugs which may still exist need to be re-filed huh? |
| kb9vqf | it is possible, but please test Trinity to verify that the bug is still present before refiling :) |
| Vasistha | well yes :) |
| kb9vqf | A lot of old KDE3 bugs have been fixed |
| kb9vqf | but I am sure a lot remain... |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| Vasistha | may I ask, is there some kind of meaning behind your nick "kb9vqf"? |
| kb9vqf | yes |

| kb9vqf | Those are called QSL cards :) |
| kb9vqf | I have a few myself |
| Vasistha | nice! |
| kb9vqf | haven't had much time alone with the radio lately though... :( |

| Vasistha | our infrastructure is so fragile! |
| kb9vqf | I know :-P |
| kb9vqf | so there's still a place for the ham radio operators :) |

| kb9vqf | *either |
| * KingSphinx actually rather likes watching the kernel as it boots |
| kb9vqf | You have to edit the /boot/grub/menu.lst file and remove the quiet argument from the kernel boot line |
| kb9vqf | I think Ubuntu has instructions somewhere :) |
| Qu4Z | KingSphinx: It's funny, because I spent a bunch of effort installing a pretty bootsplash |
| Qu4Z | You use Ubuntu or Fedora or something, yeah? |
| KingSphinx | Ubuntu, used to use Fedora |
| Qu4Z | I just find it ironic that the Ubuntu user goes out of his way to enable watching the kernel output, whereas the Gentoo user goes out of his way to hide it. Maybe we should swap :P |
| KingSphinx | Switched back to Ubuntu after learning about Trinity's trouble with RHEL/Fedora |
| Qu4Z | Trouble? Just compatibility issues, or some sort of policy stuff? |
| KingSphinx | Policy stuff, I believe. RPM packaging policy forbids installation in /opt |
| Qu4Z | Huh. Well, I guess it makes sense for in-tree stuff to stick to other dirs |
| Qu4Z | Can't Trinity install into /usr/<bla>? |
| Qu4Z | I mean, I totally get if that's not a priority to sort out right now. |
| Qu4Z | But I seem to remember there were -DTRINITY_LIB_DIR= options to cmake |
| kb9vqf | you can pick the directory, yes |
| kb9vqf | but only to a point |
| kb9vqf | if you pick /usr/foo/ then you have to add that directory to a number of "standard paths" within the Trinity source |
| kb9vqf | it gets messy fast |
| KingSphinx | Even with the move to TQt, will Trinity still need to install in /opt or will there be a point where it can install in /usr/whatever like any other DE? |
| Qu4Z | Standard paths? So just adding /usr/lib/trinity to LIBRARY_LD_PATH or whatever in startkde won't fix it? |
| Qu4Z | What are the "standard paths" used for? |
| kb9vqf | they are in the source code |
| kb9vqf | they allow the build system to find libraries |
| kb9vqf | Konqueror to find its plugins, etc. |
| Qu4Z | Okay :/ |
| kb9vqf | grep for /opt/trinity in the source tree and you will find where they are :) |
| Qu4Z | Shouldn't that be using environment variables with defaults or something? |
| Qu4Z | Haha, yeah ^^ Not on a computer with Trinity source checked out atm, though :/ |
| kb9vqf | The build system can't rely on environment variables |
| kb9vqf | yes, it should be done differently, but at this point that is a very, very low priority |
| Qu4Z | Oh, right. The build system. Missed that bit, and skipped straight to "konqueror find its plugins" |
| Qu4Z | Yeah, fair enough. |
| kb9vqf | actually I think konqueror will find its plugins anyway |
| kb9vqf | there was some other obscure problem that occurred |
| kb9vqf | I can't remember now :) |
| kb9vqf | I settled on /opt a long time ago and don't really fell up to changing it now |
| Qu4Z | No worries :) I'm not a Fedora user anyway. I was just curious why it was a problem. |
| Qu4Z | Yeah, fair enough. |
| kb9vqf | if others want to send patches I'd be happy to include them :) |
| Qu4Z | I'm chucking everything in /opt, so I won't patch it :P |
| Qu4Z | I let portage-installed stuff live in /usr and friends, manually installed stuff can live in /opt |
| Qu4Z | Not entirely what they're for, but you know what? Doesn't matter. |
| kb9vqf | In all honesty KDE4 should have been forced to rename their apps due to the major functionality difference between KDE3 and KDE4, but that was never an option :-P |
| kb9vqf | a case of "when an "upgrade" is not actually an upgrade, its an entirely different app with the same name" |
| kb9vqf | oh well :) |
| kb9vqf | it just left TDE with an unfortunate problem |
| kb9vqf | work is slowly being done to remove the problem |
| Qu4Z | That's cool :) I appreciate all the work being done. I'll try to help when I can, but at the moment starting Trinity freezes my computer, so... well, then I installed XP for gaming and it overrode my MBR, and I haven't reinstalled grub into it yet. |
| KingSphinx | One of the few things I've noted as a rather notable program missing from Ubuntu since moving from Fedora is bootconf/bootconf-gui. In Fedora, I was able to use that to restore text-mode and Plymouth to my monitor's native res (1280x1024). |
| KingSphinx | Without it, it's stuck at 640x480, rather ugly-looking on my screen. |
| Qu4Z | Eww, that is ugly :/ |
| KingSphinx | Whee, found a scipt that might fix that problem. Just gotta reboot to see if it's fixed. |

| MobileTurkey | kb9vqf: hey just had a talk with Robert |
| MobileTurkey | I have been really busy putting my house back in order but hopefully my workstation area will be up by monday or tuesday(its getting there) |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| MobileTurkey | kb9vqf: awesome news about the TDE integration patches though, I am really glad they are very open |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| kb9vqf | I just don't have time to rebase the patches right now... |
| MobileTurkey | also I ran into another ODBC problem with Qt3 while compiling |
| MobileTurkey | I won't be able to work it through till i get my desktop up and running |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| MobileTurkey | anyway just stopping it. |
| kb9vqf | when you do please fix the GIT :) |
| MobileTurkey | also did you see ilya actually sent in a patch :D |
| MobileTurkey | kb9vqf: yes will do. |
| kb9vqf | Yes, I noticed |
| kb9vqf | a rare occurrence that :) |
| MobileTurkey | it might be related to another qt3 patch i saw about OBDC |
| MobileTurkey | but one that is not to go unnoticed. |
| MobileTurkey | If we encourage it, maybe (s)he will be motivated to be a pal and bring in more! |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | hang on |
| MobileTurkey | ok |
| MobileTurkey | I am going to pull in the patch |
| kb9vqf | MobileTurkey: Ummmm |
| kb9vqf | that is for Amarok |
| kb9vqf | which is NOT IN GIT |
| MobileTurkey | ahhh I just realized that |
| MobileTurkey | when I looked. |
| kb9vqf | I just pushed it into SVN (revision 1251260) |
| MobileTurkey | >_> |
| MobileTurkey | awesome |
| MobileTurkey | either way it's there. |
| kb9vqf | you may want to correct your message :) |
| kb9vqf | lest he think we are a bunch of bumbling buffoons ;-) |
| MobileTurkey | something along those lines |
| MobileTurkey | drunken monkeys with keyboards |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| MobileTurkey | I thought you handled the k9copy thing well also, you seem to have a knack for administrative skills relating to legal spects. |

| Fat-Zer | hi |
| Fat-Zer | i'm failed to compile kdelibs from svn |
| Fat-Zer | seems it's becouse config.h created bys cmake doesn't includes while compilation |
| Fat-Zer | any ideas? |
| Fat-Zer | here is my log: http://paste.pocoo.org/show/475428/ |
| kb9vqf | what happens if you add a line #include <config.h> to dcop/dcopserver.cpp? |
| Fat-Zer | it works, if i add "-include /path/to/config.h" to the compiller options. |
| Fat-Zer | and call the gcc by my self |
| Fat-Zer | i think it's the same... |
| Fat-Zer | please just write something as i know my client isn't down again =)) |

| kb9vqf | *code |

| MutantTurkey | http://pastebin.com/mVbYz032 |
| kb9vqf | oh great :( |
| kb9vqf | you may need to manually set QTDIR |
| kb9vqf | other than that I don't know |
| MutantTurkey | okay |
| kb9vqf | something isn't finding the library that was built |
| kb9vqf | I would verify that the library actually WAS built first of all :) |

| kb9vqf | If adding the #include <config.h> worked then I'll commit it to SVN |
| Fat-Zer | it works for 1 file... but it should be included into many others... it's not right solution... |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | then there is some other problem on your system |
| kb9vqf | as I don't experience the problem I can't help unfortunately |
| kb9vqf | examine your log files carefully for any problems |
| kb9vqf | and good luck :) |
| kb9vqf | oh, and I would ask on the mailing list |
| kb9vqf | others may have run into something similar already |

| Fat-Zer | kb9vqf: can you show list of your qt3 includes? |
| kb9vqf | Fat-Zer: What do you want to see exactly? |
| Fat-Zer | a couple of minutes.... i'll check one thing |
| Fat-Zer | ls /path/to/qt3/install/directory/include |
| Fat-Zer | anyway... the rison of mistake: |
| Fat-Zer | includes for qt are installed with command: cp include/*\.h "${D}"/${QTBASE}/include/ |
| Fat-Zer | and in git there is a config.h file |
| Fat-Zer | so it's includes to he project insted of cmake's file... |
| Fat-Zer | [facepalm] |
| Fat-Zer | *the project |
| Fat-Zer | i think this include and some other should be moved to private directory |
| Fat-Zer | kb9vqf: thoughts? |
| kb9vqf | oh, nice |
| kb9vqf | that's why it worked on Debian |
| kb9vqf | good work in tracking it down :) |
| kb9vqf | Fat-Zer: Fixed in Trinity GIT |
| kb9vqf | be sure to remove the offending config.h file from your system include directory |
| kb9vqf | let me know if you run into any problems from the patch |
| Fat-Zer | thanks... tracking such things can be a real pain in ass... but after all comes something like a developer orgasm... but it isn't worth of it... |
| Fat-Zer | thanks for fast fixing |

| kb9vqf | :) |
| kb9vqf | What did you do? |
| MutantTurkey | I just built it without any flags. |
| MutantTurkey | I was using a bunch of flags that David put it, instead i just did ./comfigure -thread -fast |
| MutantTurkey | and it worked |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: now to install, I just do make install DESTDIR=/opt/qt3? |
| kb9vqf | It's been a while |
| kb9vqf | I think that should work |
| MutantTurkey | ok |
| MutantTurkey | also, can I stop it from prompting me? |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: doesn't seem to do it. |
| kb9vqf | well, make install works |
| kb9vqf | you may need to set the prefix in ./configure |
| kb9vqf | no, you can't stop it |
| kb9vqf | but you can feed it what it wants to see |
| kb9vqf | see the Debian rules file for Qt3 :) |
| kb9vqf | Actually Debian might patch ./configure to stop the prompting |
| kb9vqf | not sure OTOH |
| MutantTurkey | can't we just make the change upstream? |

| *** Z_God has joined #trinity-desktop |
| kb9vqf | NeKit: Qt4 work has been suspended pending evaluation of alternatives |
| kb9vqf | I see no compelling reason to use Qt4 at this time |

| KingSphinx | Wheeeeee... apparently, if I want to install the current Kubuntu desktop, it wants to remove the kubuntu-default-settings-kde3 package. |
| *** Arch__ has quit IRC |
| KingSphinx | Not that it matters too much, I might have to reinstall Ubuntu 11.04 anyway. Apparently upgrading Trinity to 11.04, then installing ubuntu-desktop is not a great way to get stuff like Ubuntu Software Center, because I have to use sudo aoftware-center in terminal before Software Center will actually install anything. :( |
| KingSphinx | *software-center |
| kb9vqf | Isn't Ubuntu fun? :-P |
| KingSphinx | Yes, very. :P |
| kb9vqf | And yes, the two default-settings packages are incompatible |
| kb9vqf | no way around that really |
| kb9vqf | hence the name "default" settings :) |
| KingSphinx | (there *is* some truth in that statement, it is sort of fun seeing what's wrong and how to fix it.) |
| KingSphinx | Would it hurt to remove default-settings-kde3? |
| kb9vqf | you'll lose a lot of stuff |
| kb9vqf | that is, you will have to reconfigure KDM |
| KingSphinx | ...so it would hurt. |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| KingSphinx | Fun stuff. |
| kb9vqf | it won't permanently break anything |
| kb9vqf | but you would have a lot of reconfiguring to do :) |
| kb9vqf | Honestly I don't care too much about KDE4 |
| kb9vqf | I maintain minimal compatibility...but that's it |
| KingSphinx | KDM doesn't work properly for me anyway, if I try to log into GNOME or Unity with it, all I get is device icons and the GNOME wallpaper. |
| kb9vqf | you need to use the display manager that is specific to your desktop environment |
| kb9vqf | no one follows the standards any more |
| kb9vqf | :-P |
| KingSphinx | *rolls eyes* So much for cooperation in the Linux community... |
| KingSphinx | The community can be great, but sometimes they can do things that leave me with a headache >_> |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| kb9vqf | and now that everyone is trying to change everything in a head-over-heels attempt to mimic Apple and make your $1000 computer into a $100 smartphone... |
| kb9vqf | well... |
| kb9vqf | breakage is the norm nowadays :( |
| kb9vqf | Trinity is designed in the old workstation fashion, so it may be "hard" to set up but then it is stable and powerful |
| kb9vqf | vs. easy to setup and useless |
| KingSphinx | Hate to say it, but Trinity and KDE4 seem to be one's few hopes for a sane traditional desktop (don't laugh, Plasma's default desktop is nicely laid out IMO) |
| * kb9vqf laughs anyway |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| kb9vqf | Frankly I hate what KDE4 did--it only looks "good" when compared against some of those insane alternatives |
| KingSphinx | Like I've said before, I don't hate the 4 series; I love how extensible Plasma can be. 3.whatever has its uses though, and I appreciate that too. |
| kb9vqf | I'm biased :) |
| kb9vqf | take what I say with a truckload of salt |
| kb9vqf | All I know is that KDE4 is completely unusable for me on my workstations and servers |
| kb9vqf | it reminds me of a poorly designed tinkertoy |
| kb9vqf | but then again, I use the terminal about 30%-50% of the time even in my Trinity sessions, so I may be more of a "power user" than normal :) |
| KingSphinx | Even the insane interfaces like Unity and GNOME 3 (which isn't really "bad", just seems to be following the same "tablet-on-desktop" route everyone's taking now) have their strengths... |
| kb9vqf | Yes, but their weaknesses line up with the work I need to do on a daily basis |
| kb9vqf | They are nice for salespeople, or Grandma, etc. |
| kb9vqf | but not for hardcore engineering or physics work |
| KingSphinx | Yeah, I realize that. For the average Joe who just dawdles on Facebook, Unity's practically foolproof. |
| kb9vqf | Call me old fashioned, but I don't expect to pick up my computer and carry it with me :) |
| kb9vqf | and since I'm chained to a desk when using it I want it to be as powerful as possible |
| KingSphinx | Even on something like a laptop, I'd rather use a more traditional desktop. |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | however when I *do* bring a computer with me I still don't expect to be as productive as at my primary workstation for a variety of reasons |
| kb9vqf | and that is where the other interfaces start to shine |
| kb9vqf | in low productivity situations |
| kb9vqf | I think in most cases you can take the tablet away from the user and have his/her productivity barely affected |
| kb9vqf | unless some heavy duty engineering went into it and he/she is linked up with a larger computer somewhere else |
| kb9vqf | Just my $0.02 :) |
| kb9vqf | frankly the human->tablet interface is going to be suboptimal no matter what UI is running on it |
| KingSphinx | Hmm... I wonder if stuff like the default-settings conflict would still happen once TDE moves to the .trinity namespace rather than .kde3? |
| kb9vqf | just by virtue of the fact that the screen does not fill the entire human retina, and that the input device does not allow for more than a couple of fingers to be in use at once |
| kb9vqf | going back on topic... :) |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | wallpapers |
| kb9vqf | sounds |
| kb9vqf | icons |
| kb9vqf | we are close |
| kb9vqf | but some more stuff has to be moved |
| kb9vqf | and I don't have time to do it :) |
| KingSphinx | You can only work as fast as the amount of people you have that are willing to work... |
| kb9vqf | an hour spent improving KDE4 compatibility is an hour lost in making Trinity better on my end |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | I wish we had more devs |
| kb9vqf | oh well |
| kb9vqf | there's no glamour here |
| kb9vqf | being a dev for Trinity that is |
| kb9vqf | so people don't help out :( |
| KingSphinx | At the very least, Trinity's a shining example of the nature of open-source software... normally, once a product reaches EOL, it's dead, but you've proved (or "you're proving", whichever's right) that just because a product's been abandoned by its original developer doesn't mean it's dead by any means. |
| kb9vqf | Yes :) |
| kb9vqf | If Windows were open source I'd be doing the same thing to XP |
| kb9vqf | but it isn't and so Microsoft lost my business |
| kb9vqf | their new UIs stink |
| KingSphinx | Much as we'd like to dream, there ain't no way that Windows will go open-source. :P |
| kb9vqf | definitely not worth $100-$200 a pop |
| kb9vqf | yep, I know |
| kb9vqf | I found the next best thing and have been improving it ever since :) |
| kb9vqf | and found out it's better in some areas along the way |
| KingSphinx | If it did, I'd have a very bad feeling that Linux would become even less significant... |
| kb9vqf | very true |
| kb9vqf | on desktop platforms |
| kb9vqf | servers are very entrenched in Linux |

| Xu_R|School | KingSphinx: opensuse's legal team is complaining about some images in kstars |
| Xu_R|School | I'm not really sure their reasoning or such |

| KingSphinx | Woke up early enough to do a clean reinstall of Ubuntu... but I went with Kubuntu 11.04 64-bit (yes, I know, I'm a terrible person. Needed a clean system, and wanted to make use of my processor since it *is* 64-bit...) |
| KingSphinx | Oh well, guess I'll wait for the next version of Trinity to get it back. ^^; |
| KingSphinx | So far, everything's running fine, though it does feel a bit odd dual-booting Kubuntu 64 and an old 32-bit Windows install |
| kb9vqf | You can use the nightly builds if you want |
| kb9vqf | that is what I have been recommending |
| kb9vqf | they should be stable enough for daily usage, and if you run into problems then let us know--it is still in development so we'd like to fix them before release |
| *** KingSphinx has quit IRC |

| kb9vqf | everything else is probably old and no longer applicable |
| kb9vqf | hmm |
| Z_God | "Guests are not allowed to join that pad. Please sign in." |
| kb9vqf | ok, try this: http://trinity.etherpad.trinitydesktop.org/ep/pad/view/ro.5trB/latest |
| kb9vqf | I'm not opposed to giving out Etherpad accounts, I just wanted the public read only feature to work as well :) |
| Z_God | again, the same error |
| kb9vqf | grr. |
| Z_God | sure, I can be patient :) |
| kb9vqf | OK, just send me your Email address and name and I'll give an account |
| Z_God | ah whatever is the easiest really, I don't mind waiting a bit if you prefer to fix the public feature |
| Z_God | otherwise my e-mail: julius.schwartzenberg@gmail.com |
| kb9vqf | I don't know why it isn't working to be honest |
| kb9vqf | Hang on, I'll create an account |
| kb9vqf | Just be sure to back up your system before installing the nightly builds |
| kb9vqf | that installation cannot be undone :) |
| kb9vqf | Z_God: Email sent |
| Z_God | I'll use a test system |
| Z_God | can't I just purge the packages at some point though? |
| kb9vqf | well, yes, but you can't restore the -kde3 packages once they have been migrated to Trinity |
| kb9vqf | unless you do it manually, package by package.... |
| Z_God | ok, it should not be a big problem for me |
| kb9vqf | ok :) |
| kb9vqf | Do you mind writing any problems/solutions on the Etherpad |
| kb9vqf | ? |
| kb9vqf | Just add a block of text on the bottom with your upgrade experience :) |
| Z_God | sure, I will |
| kb9vqf | thanks! |
| Z_God | ah the replacing of kde3 packages with trinity packages should be automated? |
| Z_God | I guess that's the hardest part of the upgrade then |
| kb9vqf | it is automated |
| kb9vqf | Z_God: It is (mostly) automated |
| kb9vqf | basically I just need to rebuild the Ubuntu packages to include the automated upgrade |
| Z_God | ok |
| kb9vqf | the core packages have already been rebuilt with the automated upgrade process |
| kb9vqf | but they have not been tested :) |
| Z_God | it seems this system is actually on some nightly version already |
| Z_God | but one from ppa.launchpad.net |
| kb9vqf | yikes, that's old! |
| Z_God | I just took this external HD from my closet & managed to boot it ;) |
| kb9vqf | Trinity used to be hosted on Launchpad way back at the very beginning of the project |
| kb9vqf | I quickly got fed up with interminable build queues |
| Z_God | it's newer than oldstable it seems though |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| Z_God | which is what I run almost everywhere else |
| kb9vqf | I quickly determined that nightly builds on Launchpad just couldn't be done |
| kb9vqf | so that repository was abandoned in favor of QuickBuild |
| Z_God | ok |
| kb9vqf | it's there as legacy only :) |
| Z_God | I guess quickbuild was not also tweaked to work with Konq 3.5? :)) |
| kb9vqf | and because I can't delete a PPA from Launchpad :) |
| kb9vqf | nope |
| kb9vqf | personally I use Firefox and Chrome |
| kb9vqf | two very nice browsers |
| kb9vqf | and leave Konq to what it does best: file browsing |
| kb9vqf | in the true Unix tradition of one program per task :-P |
| Z_God | yep, I have Firefox & Chromium as well |
| Z_God | but Konqueror is not a bad browser |
| Z_God | just the renderer needs an update |
| * kb9vqf would like to see Konq fixed for browsing, but it is infeasible for this release |
| kb9vqf | I have to migrate off the Qt namespace, then updating KHTML should be possible |
| kb9vqf | we're almost there, but kdebindings and such are blocking it |
| Z_God | I remember there used to be a webkit renderer kpart in suse a long time ago |
| kb9vqf | really! |
| Z_God | it would be cool to have a second kpart with webkit |
| kb9vqf | if you can dig up the link that would offer a running start to updating Konq :) |
| Z_God | yes, but it was really really long ago |
| kb9vqf | hey, a lot of good programs were around a long time ago :) |
| Z_God | I'll look at it, it must have been when suse was still shipping kde3 by default |
| kb9vqf | ok, thanks |
| kb9vqf | it would be much better than starting from scratch... |
| Z_God | it seems a dist-upgrade does not trigger the switch yet from -kde3 to -trinity |
| Z_God | I need to install the kubuntu-default-settings-trinity & kubuntu-desktop-trinity I guess to start the upgrade? |
| kb9vqf | no |
| kb9vqf | if the upgrade is not being triggered then there is a problem |
| kb9vqf | what did you add to your /etc/apt/sources.list file? |
| Z_God | the two lines from the ppa on quickbuild |
| Z_God | https://quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/~trinity/+archive/trinity-nightly-builds |
| Z_God | I have the entries for lucid |
| kb9vqf | there are two more you need |
| kb9vqf | hang on, grabbing them now |
| kb9vqf | deb http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity-nightly-build-dependencies/ubuntu maverick main |
| kb9vqf | deb-src http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity-nightly-build-dependencies/ubuntu maverick main |
| kb9vqf | except replace maverick with lucid :) |
| kb9vqf | without those apt can't find the dependencies needed for the upgrade process, so it doesn't do anything |
| Z_God | aha ok |
| Z_God | seems all suse releases till 10 have been taken offline :( |
| Z_God | I'm going to dig through my disks here |
| Z_God | ok, now dist-upgrade does more, but I'm not sure if it's correct |
| Z_God | http://pastebin.com/LL3DzUQa |
| Z_God | it tries to install many new -trinity packages, but also still tries to upgrade many -kde3 packages |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | it will "upgrade" your -kde3 packages to dummy transitional packages |
| kb9vqf | and install the new -trinity packages |
| Z_God | ah of course, that makes sense :) |
| kb9vqf | when the upgrade is done you can remove all the dummy -kde3 packages :) |
| Z_God | but network-manager-kde-kde3 is held back |
| kb9vqf | not sure why |
| kb9vqf | try running the upgrade and seeing what doesn't upgrade |
| kb9vqf | then you can try installing, for example, network-manager-kde-kde3 with apt-get install and it will print out what is holding it back |
| Z_God | ah, there is no installable candidate for network-manager-tde |
| kb9vqf | hmmm |
| kb9vqf | it's there...somewhere.... |
| kb9vqf | hang on |
| kb9vqf | network-manager-kde-trinity |
| kb9vqf | so there is a problem with the upgrade handling package |
| kb9vqf | I'm not surprised :) |
| kb9vqf | are any other packages held back? |
| Z_God | nope, that's the only one |
| *** K`zan has joined #trinity-desktop |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | I'll fix it |
| kb9vqf | but the fixed package won't be available for 24-48 hours |
| kb9vqf | (due to mirror problems the project is currently experiencing) |
| Z_God | ok, let me know if you prefer me to wait with upgrading then or whether I should continue now without this package :) |
| kb9vqf | it's up to you |
| kb9vqf | I don't really care one way or the other |
| Z_God | alright, I'll go ahead then |
| kb9vqf | when the update is published knetworkmanager will automatically upgrade |
| Z_God | ok :) |
| *** TokRa has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Z_God | I think I was confused and there was actually a gecko kpart |
| Z_God | I remember it was very unstable at the tme |
| Z_God | would be around kde 3.4 or smth I think |
| Z_God | I'm still searching ... |
| Z_God | ok, now it asks whether I want kdm-kde3 or kdm-trinity as my default dm |
| Z_God | this also seems like a bug |
| *** NeKit1000 has quit IRC |
| Z_God | seems I found the kpart! |
| Z_God | http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/4/idpl/12107888/dir/redhat_8.x/com/kdebindings-kmozilla-3.0.5a-2.i386.rpm.html |
| Z_God | it's a kpart that provides the gecko engine in konqueror |
| Z_God | but it seems to be for a really old kde version and a really old gecko version .... |
| kb9vqf | works for me |
| kb9vqf | as long as the API didn't change too much we should be set! |
| Z_God | I'll see if i can find the real origin of the source |
| Z_God | btw, the upgrade finished with some errors |
| kb9vqf | not that old I guess: http://blogs.kde.org/node/615?page=1 |
| kb9vqf | which errors? |
| kb9vqf | if it is files overwriting other files then that will be fixed in the future |
| Z_God | http://pastebin.com/6pA4PAt4 |
| Z_God | I'll try installing them individually |
| kb9vqf | yeah, that's the same bug I am aware of |
| kb9vqf | should be fixed in a few day |
| kb9vqf | *days |
| Z_God | ok :) |
| kb9vqf | The plot thickens: http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kde.redhat.user/3500 |
| Z_God | it seems he refers to this: http://web.archive.org/web/20050404225222/http://docs.kde.org/en/HEAD/kdebase/faq/non-kde-apps.html |
| Z_God | not sure if that includes the kpart as well though |
| kb9vqf | doesn't look viable unfortunately: http://www.kde-forum.org/artikel/16856/kecko.html |
| kb9vqf | My original idea had been to embed an X11 window of some other browser and control it from the kpart :) |
| kb9vqf | webkit would be a good choice |
| kb9vqf | but we need to stop stomping on the Qt namespace first :-P |
| Z_God | http://websvn.kde.org/tags/KDE/3.0.5A/kdebindings/xparts/mozilla/ |
| Z_God | seems it was originally there |
| Z_God | it seems sudo apt-get -f install immediately fixed all the problems btw |
| *** MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop |
| MutantTurkey | o/ |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: did you port poppler to the latest TQt interface? is it mostly just changing the names around? |
| kb9vqf | poppler is still maintained upstream |
| kb9vqf | we now provide the TQt interface to it |
| kb9vqf | and yes, everything execpt kdebindings and related programs are TQt ported |
| kb9vqf | *except |
| kb9vqf | On the plus side I think I found the origin of the mysterious KDM click-shutdown-and-hang bug |
| kb9vqf | It happens when no shutdown actions are authorized |
| kb9vqf | for some reason the resultant dialog has 0 size (!??) |
| kb9vqf | working on it :) |
| Z_God | getting an error from KDM now "Cannot open theme file /opt/trinity/share/apps/kdm/themes/kubuntu-trinity" |
| Z_God | and the login screen seems to be window managed itself! |
| Z_God | otherwise it seems to be working great! |
| Z_God | very fast :) |
| *** TokRa_Lv has joined #trinity-desktop |
| kb9vqf | yep, window management of the login screen is a new feature :) |
| *** TokRa_Lv has joined #trinity-desktop |
| kb9vqf | you are still running beta packages so there is no GUI option yet to turn it off, but trust me, it can be done |
| kb9vqf | see the kdmrc file |
| kb9vqf | personally I like it window managed--it offers a more unified experience and doesn't leave the user wondering "what's happening now at the blank wallpaper screen" :) |
| Z_God | I normally use autologin, so it I don't care much about that ;) |
| Z_God | yeah, it seems better indeed |
| Z_God | especially when you get an error dialog like I just did ;) |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| kb9vqf | I put a lot of work into it...enjoy... |
| kb9vqf | more updates are coming soon BTW |
| kb9vqf | the shutdown menu is being fixed as I type this |
| Z_God | I think it's really good, remembering the awkward unmanaged dialogs from kdm in the past |
| kb9vqf | I've been bringing TDE into the 21st century |
| kb9vqf | it also has SAK support now :) |
| kb9vqf | No other Linux DE has that! |
| *** TokRa has quit IRC |
| Z_God | it says Konqueror is version 3.5.10 btw |
| Z_God | Trinity is 3.5.13 though |
| kb9vqf | your upgrade may not have been complete |
| kb9vqf | oh |
| kb9vqf | hang on |
| kb9vqf | My Konqueror says the same |
| kb9vqf | don't worry about it |
| Z_God | I saw the SAK notes in the SVN commits, but I wasn't sure what SAK is |
| Z_God | ok :) |
| kb9vqf | Secure Attention Key |
| kb9vqf | it prevents login spoofing |
| kb9vqf | which is a serious problem under Linux |
| *** TokRa_Lv has quit IRC |
| *** TokRa has joined #trinity-desktop |
| kb9vqf | I found a way to force evdev and udev to create a SEAK |
| kb9vqf | my acronym for "Secure Enough Attention Key" :) |
| kb9vqf | unless you are root, there is no way for you to know if the SAK has been pressed |
| kb9vqf | which prevents malicious users from creating a fake login screen and grabbing your passwords |
| kb9vqf | It is very close to a "true" SAK, but done in userspace |
| kb9vqf | I don't know if it works on Lucid though because of the older kernel |
| Z_God | seems good |
| Z_God | but I'm wondering how it deals with remote sessions |
| Z_God | but I never tried pressing "lock screen" on a remote kde |
| kb9vqf | it's still fragile |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: I may have tracked it down |
| kb9vqf | tracked what down? |
| MutantTurkey | i think the variable is not DESTDIR but INSTALL_ROOT |
| kb9vqf | Z_God: The issue does not exist on a remote server login, so you can disable the SAK in that environment |
| kb9vqf | Ah, the Qt problem :) |
| kb9vqf | glad to hear it |
| MutantTurkey | I poured over your qt3 rules file, very complex x: |
| MutantTurkey | i think it is working though |
| MutantTurkey | I am going to edit the qt3 file to also accept DESTDIR is that acceptable ? then send it upstream |
| Z_God | kb9vqf: yes, of course, but a single set-up should be able to deal with both practise (at least that was the case at my uni) |
| kb9vqf | yes, I know |
| Z_God | in practise* |
| kb9vqf | as I said it is still fragile |
| kb9vqf | improvements are in progress :) |
| Z_God | ok :) |
| kb9vqf | but the fact remains that for many deployments we now have something no other DE has :) |
| kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Yes, that is acceptable |
| MutantTurkey | along with xrandr :) |
| kb9vqf | hehe |
| kb9vqf | KDE4 has some bad looking clone I guess |
| kb9vqf | it looks horrid to use |
| kb9vqf | and doesn't work right |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: except that it doesn't seem to work completely yet. the install is only 1.99mb. |
| MutantTurkey | it may have just installed the lib |
| kb9vqf | well, keep working on it :) |
| Z_God | kb9vqf: I think Trinity has a lot of things that no other DE has :D but yeah it seems good such features are added |
| Z_God | I think 3.6 wouldn't be a bad version for the coming release |
| kb9vqf | I never liked the security holes |
| MutantTurkey | Z_God: that is the planned eventually |
| kb9vqf | so I've been plugging them up |
| Z_God | kb9vqf: great :) |
| kb9vqf | IMHO 3.6. should be reserved until we have kdebindings working with TQt |
| kb9vqf | once that happens a whole world opens up WRT Qt4 |
| MutantTurkey | honestly Tim, I don't know how you quite manage. frankly you do an amazing job. Programming, adding features, maintaining, updating... |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| MutantTurkey | then again you do have quite the setup with those opteron cores :P |
| Z_God | would that allow an app to be developed with Qt4 to integrate with Trinity? |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | that's why I want to hold off a but longer |
| kb9vqf | *bit |
| kb9vqf | I also want some serious beta testing of all the changes that went into 3.5.13 |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: beta releases maybe? |
| MutantTurkey | like rc1, rc2, etc |
| kb9vqf | that's what the nightly build repo is now |
| Z_God | kb9vqf: cool :) |
| kb9vqf | though I suppose I could label them :) |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: I dunno, I mean it's sort of a way to get users involved, having actual numbers |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| MutantTurkey | I am indifferent |
| kb9vqf | It's a good idea from that perspective |
| MutantTurkey | also lets users see new changes and get excited for the release |
| kb9vqf | technically though I would need to think about it |
| kb9vqf | I like the rolling release candidates right now |
| kb9vqf | it allows me to easily push updates in |
| MutantTurkey | I do to (as an arch user this is what I love) |
| MutantTurkey | indeed, fixes are instantanious |
| MutantTurkey | what do you think about having releases often though? I mean like 3.6.1 3.6.2 etc |
| MutantTurkey | as bug fix releases |
| MutantTurkey | or do we want to just shoot upstream |
| kb9vqf | Fast release cycles make bugs more common |
| kb9vqf | and make it much harder to do the kind of large overhaul I just did |
| kb9vqf | WRT TQt |
| Z_God | I just noticed interesting |
| Z_God | when I press the middle mouse button on my desktop |
| kb9vqf | Ever since Firefox switched to their fast cycle the browser has been full of bugs :( |
| Z_God | I get two applications listed that do not have a taskbar button |
| Z_God | both are called Qt-subapplication |
| kb9vqf | oh darn |
| kb9vqf | those are internal to ksmserver |
| kb9vqf | and should not be showing up |
| Z_God | I guessed that last bit ;) |
| kb9vqf | thanks for letting me know |
| Z_God | no problem :) |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: I meant more like libreoffice style |
| MutantTurkey | have 3.6 concurrently in development |
| MutantTurkey | and merging bug fixes back into 3.5 |
| MutantTurkey | for example |
| MutantTurkey | so users will get bug fixes, and then the new release with new features/fixes |
| MutantTurkey | so 3.6.1 would only include bug fixes |
| MutantTurkey | and then 3.7 would be a new release with new featuers |
| MutantTurkey | thats the theory |
| MutantTurkey | anyway... think about it |
| Z_God | I understand there will be two lines anyway at one point with TQt |
| Z_God | one compiled against Qt3 and another maybe compiled against Qt4 |
| Z_God | seems firefox qt builds are still coming out daily btw, but against Qt4: http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/tinderbox-builds/mozilla-central-linuxqt/ |

| Z_God | kb9vqf: I looked a bit more into this xparts stuff |
| kb9vqf | for what? |
| Z_God | to see what it was about :) |
| Z_God | it seems it's similar to what you wanted to implement for an alternative kpart |
| kb9vqf | ah, ok |
| Z_God | it allows embedding of any window as a kpart ans somehow sending commands to it |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | It is a nice feature :) |
| Z_God | the kmozillapart does not actually depend on qt build of mozilla |
| * kb9vqf knows more about Xorg than he wants to |
| Z_God | it actually works with a gtk1.2 build of mozilla |
| kb9vqf | it's actually in our source tree AFAIK |
| kb9vqf | in kdebindings |
| Z_God | yep, indeed |
| kb9vqf | it's just shut off |
| kb9vqf | I should look into reactivating it...a Gecko rendering engine would be a Very Good Thing for Trinity :) |
| Z_God | I managed to compile the xpart & gtk parts without issues with the gtk1.2 headers installed |
| Z_God | that seems to be still intact |
| Z_God | the only issue is that mozilla does not support gtk1 anymore, just gtk2 |
| Z_God | also ubuntu dropped gtk1, so you need to add the hardy universe repository to be able to install gtk1.2 |
| kb9vqf | I wonder what the API changes were |
| kb9vqf | if they aren't too major a forward port would be possible |
| Z_God | yes, I guess it would make sense to add a gtk2 xparts module for gtk2 apps |
| Z_God | and fix kmozillapart to use it |
| Z_God | I was already trying to compile xulrunner with gtk1.2, but I didn't succeed yet |
| kb9vqf | I would need some time though to actually work on it...and time is in short supply right now :( |
| Z_God | yeah I can imagine |
| kb9vqf | But I do appreciate your idea and pointer to the kpart |
| kb9vqf | I had no idea we even had that in our tree :) |
| Z_God | you even made some changes to it ;) |
| Z_God | I guess that was scripted though :) |
| kb9vqf | As part of my semi-automated conversion, yes |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| kb9vqf | KDE3 was shedding features for some time apparently |
| kb9vqf | which is sad |
| Z_God | well, at least they are being rediscovered :) |
| kb9vqf | yes :) |
| Z_God | I was already wondering if it would be possible to embed KDE4 kparts easily with something like this |
| Z_God | when you compile the example notepad xpart btw, it generates a normal executable that indeed runs in a simple window when ran |
| Z_God | so I guess that would indeed be the window to be embedded as the kpart then |
| kb9vqf | Once we are off of the Qt namespace then yes, you can do fun stuff like that |
| kb9vqf | until then I am not sure |
| kb9vqf | you could try it :) |
| kb9vqf | actually it might work |
| kb9vqf | but we won't have widget level integration untill we are fully off the Qt namespace |
| kb9vqf | just window level integration |
| Z_God | I don't know anything about Qt |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| Z_God | but I guess the first thing needed would be kde4 app that embeds a single kpart |
| kb9vqf | sounds reasonable |
| Z_God | and that's all it does |
| kb9vqf | yrs |
| kb9vqf | *yes |
| kb9vqf | As I mentioned before I'm not too keen on doing anything for/with KDE4 |
| kb9vqf | but I won't oppose someone that does :) |
| Z_God | yeah I wonder what the performance impact would be of something like that |
| kb9vqf | high RAM usage mostly |
| Z_God | and if such a KDE4 app would need to have all kinds of other background processes loaded to be able to work |
| kb9vqf | from loading all that KDE4 bloat |
| kb9vqf | the way KDE4 is designed, most likely |
| Z_God | that's not really an alternative for the current engine then in konq |
| kb9vqf | with a KDE3 app you load XLib, Qt3, and kdecore/kdeui |
| kb9vqf | with KDE4 you load a whole lot more :-P |
| Z_God | hmm ok |
| kb9vqf | it's a design decision (IMHO a terrible one) |
| Z_God | I still run Trinity on systems with 128 MB or 256 MB of RAM |
| Z_God | not regularly, but it seems bad to implement something that would really need more than that |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | personally, having worked with Qt4, I hate it |
| kb9vqf | it is slow, limited, and bloated |
| kb9vqf | given a choice I would not use it at all |
| Z_God | you prefer Qt3 over Qt4? |
| kb9vqf | actually, yes |
| kb9vqf | the only thing Qt4 really gives you is transparency |
| kb9vqf | the only thing is, it's not real transparency :-P |
| kb9vqf | it's a fake Qt-only widget level transparency |
| Z_God | the main Qt4 application I use is Psi |
| kb9vqf | like it? |
| Z_God | it took them some effort to port it from Qt3 to Qt4 |
| Z_God | yep, it seems to be the best Jabber client there is |
| Z_God | it's light & simple |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | as long as you don't try to do anything fancy with Qt4 it's OK |
| kb9vqf | but the more features you add the slower it gets |
| Z_God | I think VirtualBox also uses Qt4 |
| Z_God | and Opera of course |
| kb9vqf | yes, and compared to the Qt3 version it's slow |
| kb9vqf | it feels unresponsive |
| Z_God | I think Opera even had both Qt3 and Qt4 at the same time at some point |
| kb9vqf | there is a piece of engineering software that I use that uses Qt as its base |
| kb9vqf | the Qt3 version is clean and responsive |
| kb9vqf | the Qt4 version is bloated, slow, and buggy |

| tbottu | 04Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=513 critical, P5, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, KMail crashes on "Include this folder in mail checks" disable |
| Z_God | you think it's only because of the Qt version? |
| kb9vqf | pretty sure :) |
| Z_God | hmm... ok |
| kb9vqf | They try not to change the frontend much between releases |
| Z_God | I saw they were thinking about Qt5 already |
| kb9vqf | ughh |
| kb9vqf | which means KDE5 |
| Z_God | it would seem good to tag on there, at least find out where the performance differences come from |
| kb9vqf | I know where they come from to some extent |
| Z_God | ok? |
| kb9vqf | All that fancy graphics stuff introduces lag |
| kb9vqf | I prefer to keep the graphics stuff actually in the graphics card (!) |
| kb9vqf | with xcomposite and friends |
| Z_God | I'm not sure what things you mean |
| Z_God | to my Qt4 and Qt3 apps pretty much look the same |
| Z_God | me* |
| kb9vqf | In Qt4 there is a backing store and a double buffer |
| Z_God | when you pick a similar theme |
| kb9vqf | both of which have to be updated every time anything changes on the screen |
| kb9vqf | basically Qt4 will slow down anything that involves redrawing a window |
| Z_God | and the advantage is that it allows certain effects? |
| kb9vqf | that means that hiding or showing widgets, clicking on buttons, etc. will be slightly slower in Qt4 |
| tbottu | 10New TDE 3.5 bug 514 filed by sh4dou@gmail.com. |
| tbottu | 04Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=514 normal, P5, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, aKregator crashes on jpeg display. |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | doing that allows transparency in particular |
| kb9vqf | without xcomposite |
| kb9vqf | but since we have xcomposite, that continual lag is a price I am not willing to pay |
| Z_God | and there is no trivial way to disable these features in Qt4 I guess? |
| kb9vqf | no, they are embedded deeply |
| tbottu | 10New TDE 3.5 bug 515 filed by sh4dou@gmail.com. |
| kb9vqf | that is one of the main selling points actually |
| tbottu | 04Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=515 minor, P5, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, aKregator run error |
| Z_God | but I wonder why they wanted this then |
| Z_God | if they could do it though xcomposite as well |
| kb9vqf | Like I said--as long as you only show a few widgets Qt4 is perfecty fine |
| kb9vqf | but use 10, 20, 30 widgets and it is as slow as molasses |
| kb9vqf | because of all those backing store updates :-P |
| kb9vqf | then there is the entirely separate problem of the removal of features |
| kb9vqf | which forces repimplementation of those features in the user's program |
| kb9vqf | *reimplementation |
| Z_God | ok, I guess that's also where the Qt3support stuff came from |
| kb9vqf | and the software developer probably won't take the time to optimize each of those new algorithms :-P |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| *** l0ner has joined #trinity-desktop |
| kb9vqf | everything in Qt3Support was lost in Qt4 |
| kb9vqf | which is a sizable set of features :( |
| l0ner | Hi all! |
| Z_God | do you think it would be possible to let Qt5 bring back some of the performance of Qt3? |
| kb9vqf | It's up to Nokia |
| kb9vqf | given their track record they will probably remove even more features :( |
| Z_God | I can imagine things could go different now though |
| kb9vqf | Qt4/Qt5 are really designed for simple apps (as in the apps that belong on a phone) |
| kb9vqf | and not for large software quites |
| kb9vqf | *suite |
| Z_God | you saw the recent news on this new separate Qt community? |
| kb9vqf | no |
| kb9vqf | where? |
| Z_God | sec |
| Z_God | http://news.slashdot.org/story/11/09/14/1546226/Nokia-Announces-Qt-Open-Governance-Model |
| kb9vqf | hmm, ok |
| kb9vqf | but that doesn't cover the technical problems in Qt4+ |
| kb9vqf | heck, they can't even do a floating point compare correctly any more :( |
| Z_God | nope, but on the wiki it says this |
| Z_God | The main objectives of the Governance Model are to: |
| Z_God | Put decision power in the hands of the community, i.e. the people who contribute to the Project’s success, |
| Z_God | Make it easy to understand how to get involved and make a difference |
| l0ner | well, qt4 was done by trolltech, now it's nokia |
| kb9vqf | To be blunt I don't have time to handle that |
| kb9vqf | that would be a whole second full-time job |
| l0ner | and whie trolltech target IMHO was PC's, nokia' |
| l0ner | * nokias is not |
| Z_God | yeah I can imagine it would not be so easy to join this |
| kb9vqf | and I would be at odds with them |
| kb9vqf | just as I am at odds with KDE4 |
| kb9vqf | they want multitouch phone interfaces |
| Z_God | but it seems they would appreciate ideas from the community, maybe to add some Qt3 things back to Qt5 |
| kb9vqf | and I want mouse and keyboard stuff :-P |
| l0ner | me too |
| kb9vqf | Hey, if you want to try it go right ahead :) |
| Z_God | yes, I am also clumsy myself with these phones & touchscreens |
| l0ner | but for some things i'd prefer touchscreen, like to read books |
| kb9vqf | Look through the stuff in Qt3Support and try to get it added bac kin |
| Z_God | I wonder if a single Qt could really suit both Trinity & phones at one point |
| kb9vqf | I bet you will run into fierce resistance |
| kb9vqf | NO |
| kb9vqf | not without severe bloat |
| l0ner | yep |
| kb9vqf | yes, touchscreens have their place |
| kb9vqf | Qt4 has its place |
| kb9vqf | bit that place is in MEDIA CONSUMPTION |
| l0ner | true |
| kb9vqf | you will NEVER create new applications, movies, books, etc. on one of those devices |
| kb9vqf | or if you do then the immediate question would be: why didn't you just use pencil and paper? :) |
| kb9vqf | the point is that those touchpads and the apps that run on them are a suboptimal human<-->machine interface |
| kb9vqf | always will be |
| l0ner | it would be a suicide to try doing something like CAD design, or simply draw on a phone/tablet |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| l0ner | i cant draw a straight line on my iTouch... |
| kb9vqf | there is a tradeoff between portability and efficiency of the human/machine interface |
| l0ner | yep |
| kb9vqf | and on those tables the efficiency drops so low that they are only usable for consumption |
| kb9vqf | hey, I should write a paper on this :) |
| kb9vqf | *tablets |
| l0ner | yep |
| Z_God | I never really worked much with these things, but the few times I did, I often had problems because it seems these interfaces hide all kinds of things |
| kb9vqf | it has to |
| Z_God | and I have trouble with the touching |
| l0ner | and tablet/portable with touchscreen which could be used to design/draw costs a lot of money (see dell latitude XT) |
| kb9vqf | when you primary input device (one or two fingers) covers up 1/4 of your primary output device you are guaranteed horrible efficiency |
| Z_God | maybe that's just me being clumsy, but sometimes you have to press the screen quite hard it seems |
| kb9vqf | no different than a mobile telephone that when you talk you can only hear part of the other person's speech |
| kb9vqf | it would make for inefficient and frustrating conversations ;-) |
| l0ner | Z_God: i throw my touchscreen phone out of my car window while driving. I couldn't answer it, since it didn't had keys, I got frustrated, opened window and threw it. |
| kb9vqf | hehe |
| kb9vqf | sounds like something I would want to do :) |
| Z_God | yeah, for some reason I always imagine people watching porn on a tablet & everything getting out of hand :P |
| l0ner | lol |
| Z_God | l0ner: wow |
| kb9vqf | As far as I am concerned tablets (plural) should augment the PC experience, NOT replace it |
| Z_God | my mobile phones with buttons are hard enough for me to use already |
| kb9vqf | it would be nice to have a small configurable I/O device for things like computer graphics |
| kb9vqf | so you put your palette on it |
| Z_God | my father requires a smartphone for his job, but I cannot work with that |
| l0ner | kb9vqf: is there any howto on porting things from automake to CMake? automake don't see Qt3 on my machine and I need kdemultimedia |
| kb9vqf | it is not easy |
| kb9vqf | I would fix the Qt3 detection problem in Autotools |
| kb9vqf | otherwise you will be waiting years to have Trinity on your machine |
| l0ner | ok, any pointer to what i shold look at? since I never used autotools... |
| kb9vqf | look in your config.log file |
| kb9vqf | there will be a detailed error message |
| l0ner | Z_God: one I had a smartphone that had keys which You could use to manipulate it. It was nice and usable. The modern smartphones with their tendency to remove all the keys are annoying. |
| l0ner | kb9vqf: ok, will look at it now. |
| kb9vqf | humans rely on feedback from touch all the time |
| Z_God | l0ner: the main issue for me is the lack of documentation on the phone itself |
| kb9vqf | there is a reason "touch typing" works so well :) |
| kb9vqf | you can't touch type on a touchscreen |
| l0ner | well, that's the issue too |
| Z_God | I don't like to take a booklet with me when need to write a message or smth and many important things are often hidden behind all kinds of menus |
| l0ner | kb9vqf: true, and try to answer a touch phone while driving... |
| kb9vqf | forget it |
| kb9vqf | unless you are in the market for a new car :) |
| Z_God | sure KDE has/had similar issues with configuration overload but it has become more managable for me |
| l0ner | like i wrote, I got so frustrated one trying to do this, that i threw my phone out of cars window. |
| kb9vqf | One of the biggest problems that I have with KDE4 is that it removes the second and third mouse buttons from the interface |
| kb9vqf | for all practical purposes |
| l0ner | kb9vqf: or a new phone |
| kb9vqf | hehe |
| kb9vqf | so immediately more clicking is required to do uncommon tasks |
| Z_God | really? |
| kb9vqf | "uncommon" being anything other than "connect me to the internet" or "check facebook" |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| Z_God | seems I did not use KDE4 much... |
| kb9vqf | ever notice the lack of useful context menus under KDE4? |
| Z_God | yes, that I did notice indeed |
| l0ner | kb9vqf: the biggest problem with KDE4 IMHO is akonadi/semantic-desktop/actions(or how the hell they are caling it)/plasma/bloat |
| kb9vqf | that's another large problem |
| kb9vqf | Z_God: The reason they are not there is because touchscreens have one mouse button |
| kb9vqf | I know there is a tap+hold RMB |
| kb9vqf | but it is not practical |
| kb9vqf | and there is absolutely no way to signal MMB |
| Z_God | I thought it was because they were still working on it... |
| kb9vqf | possibly |
| kb9vqf | but it is not a priority to fix |
| l0ner | Kde4 was projected to show-off developers kick-ass programming skills. Unfortunately it don't goes together with usability or user-friendliness of interface and machine-friendliness. |
| Z_God | I haven't used KDE 4 in a while though |
| kb9vqf | It's a different kind of interface |
| Z_God | the last time I checked it, it seems performance was acceptable again |
| kb9vqf | It's designed for phones and touchscreens |
| Z_God | but I haven't bothered to install it on my own system |
| l0ner | kb9vqf: no, it was designed for PC's, and then they changet they mind |
| kb9vqf | Every time someone has tried Trinity after using KDE4 I get comments on how insanely fast Trinity is |
| l0ner | because it's true |
| kb9vqf | l0ner: Qt4 was designed for smartphones |
| kb9vqf | so Nokia forced KDE's hand |
| l0ner | possible |
| kb9vqf | KDE didn't put up much resistance though :) |
| l0ner | trinity is fast |
| l0ner | shame on them |
| Z_God | I think many Trolls are part of the KDE team actually |
| kb9vqf | I also think KDE4 defines a "desktop" differently |
| kb9vqf | *"desktop PC" |
| Z_God | but actually I had the same with the switch from KDE 1 to KDE2 |
| kb9vqf | they assume a certain usage pattern that lends itself to touchscreens |
| l0ner | in kde4 you can't truly disable the semantic-desktop. Too much apps are relaying on it. And it keeps running in the backgound eating Ram and CPU cycles |
| Z_God | I found KDE2 to be really really slow compared to KDE1 |
| kb9vqf | KDE 1 and 2 were very feature limited |
| kb9vqf | KDE3 grew into a viable Windows replacement |
| kb9vqf | which says a lot about it |
| l0ner | yep |
| kb9vqf | KDE4 limited the fatures again |
| kb9vqf | *features |
| Z_God | I used both 1 and 2 a lot though |
| kb9vqf | I tried 2 and hated it |
| kb9vqf | back when |
| kb9vqf | bought Windows instead :-P |
| Z_God | it worked better for me than Windows at the time |
| Z_God | but that was Windows 95/98 |
| kb9vqf | Yep, bought NT |
| kb9vqf | i didn't consider KDE3 to be a viable replacement until at least 3.4 |
| l0ner | I once started discussion on the Kde forums about maintaining kde3 as kde-classic for those who had old machines or didn't like plasma |
| kb9vqf | and it got shot down I'm sure |
| Z_God | I still have a Solaris box with 3.0 or 3.1 or smth ;) |
| l0ner | develpoers couldn't understand how You could not like plasma |
| kb9vqf | I nearly got blasted full of holes for suggesting that :) |
| l0ner | they told one user that he was using plasma incorrectely |
| Z_God | yes, I was surprised as well that Trinity was never mentioned on The Dot |
| kb9vqf | They took a page from Microsoft I guess |
| kb9vqf | Did you know it is illegal to change the look of the Windows 7 login screen? |
| l0ner | wut? |
| kb9vqf | unless you pay them $$$$ to do it for you? |
| kb9vqf | it's true |
| l0ner | oh god... |
| kb9vqf | you can only change the wallpaper |
| Z_God | because I think it only shows the greatness of the whole KDE code that people are still on the older 3.5 series as well |
| l0ner | that is why i hate m$ |
| kb9vqf | Yes, and KDE4 is trying the same garbage |
| kb9vqf | "if you don't use Plasma the way we tell you to then you shouldn't use KDE" |
| l0ner | yep, it's what they wrote in that discussion |
| kb9vqf | Personally I like the project the way it is--we have full control over the base libraries, tremendous flexibility to try things that other DEs haven't done (SAK anyone?) |
| l0ner | SAK? |
| kb9vqf | Secure Attention Key |
| kb9vqf | there are other features as well |
| kb9vqf | that's the most recent |
| Z_God | I just signed up at the Qt issue tracker |
| Z_God | because the page says you can put feature suggestions there |
| Z_God | I'm about to create an issue describing the performance issue from earlier |
| Z_God | and maybe also mention qt3support |
| kb9vqf | well, don't bother with the perfomance problem until you have a test case |
| kb9vqf | they love to close bugs without test cases |
| kb9vqf | and that would just make us look stupid |
| Z_God | what do you think would be a good test case? |
| kb9vqf | bit you can complain about the missing features, that would be a good start :) |
| kb9vqf | Z_God: Someone would have to write a graphically complex program |
| kb9vqf | that uses only features that are common to both Qt3 and Qt4 |
| kb9vqf | so something that uses lots of toolbars, etc. |
| Z_God | but I think it's important to focus on the things that would suit Trinity :) |
| Z_God | hmm |
| kb9vqf | (it doesn't have to actually DO anything other than maybe pop up message boxes and stuff) |
| Z_God | do you think it would be managable to create a test case based on TQt? |
| kb9vqf | That would be rejected out of hand |
| Z_God | ok |
| kb9vqf | they would try to claim the performance loss is in TQt |
| l0ner | kb9vqf: oh, i forgot. About including volume control for each app in arts/kmix: I looked at arts and pulse documentation and arts is actually a mixer. It takes audio streams form kde apps and mixes it to one stream. If there is a pluseaudio running it takes this stream and mixes it whit other streams it gets, and then sends everything to alsa. Volume control for each app would need some arts codin |
| kb9vqf | oh, cool :) |
| Z_God | but TQt is just abstracting right? |
| l0ner | kb9vqf: I don't see any performance loss |
| kb9vqf | I know, but it is something that they would point to |
| kb9vqf | We want to make it hard for them to reject the bug |
| Z_God | so they could suggest a way to change the code to improve the performance in Qt4 |
| kb9vqf | that involves a full rewrite |
| kb9vqf | and loss of features |
| kb9vqf | a.k.a KDE4 |
| kb9vqf | that's the way they want the applications to be |
| Z_God | hmm ok |
| kb9vqf | like KDE4 |
| kb9vqf | in other words, graphically simple and featureless :-P |
| kb9vqf | then you won't notice much of a difference ;-) |
| kb9vqf | KDE3 actually accelerates a lot of stuff with tricks like inline assembly and direct Xlib access |
| l0ner | kb9vqf: anyway i think that it should work like this or you use plasma, or you use arts. Not both. using two mixers will cause problems. They will fight for alsa access and app streams. Thats why there were so many issues with pulse in ubuntu. |
| kb9vqf | in theory it shouldn't cause problems |
| kb9vqf | but who knows |
| Z_God | l0ner: arts can use the ALSA API and I think pulse provides support for that API as far as I know |
| kb9vqf | KDE4 is so fragile in some repects |
| kb9vqf | *respects |
| Z_God | would it be hard to write a testcase with almost the same source code for qt3 and qt4? |
| l0ner | Z_God: yep, but in default pulse detects arts and handles it like a normal app |
| Z_God | ah you want arts to be special? |
| kb9vqf | Z_God: I don't have time to chase after Nokia right now :) |
| Z_God | I guess it would involve writing a pulse output for arts |
| kb9vqf | If you want to, you can probably throw something together that creates lots of widgets on the screen and show the performance loss that way |
| Z_God | ok, I will look into that... |
| kb9vqf | All my experience has been with third party apps or with apps translated via TQt |
| Z_God | I am kind of clueless on graphics performance testing though |
| kb9vqf | Well, I noticed a distinctly different "feel" |
| kb9vqf | not sure how to quantify it |
| kb9vqf | other than maybe with a timer that fires on XLib button press |
| kb9vqf | XLib-detected button press that is |
| kb9vqf | and stops when the new widget is shown on-screen |
| kb9vqf | That alone should show a pretty good performance loss |
| Z_God | seems good |
| kb9vqf | maybe they fixed Qt4.7 a bit, but somehow I doubt it :) |
| l0ner | Z_God: what i really want is a standarization. So what I really like to see is kde apps outputting their audio directly to pulse, without relaing on arts, but for this to happen will be needed much programming. |
| Z_God | seems there is QtBenchLib |
| kb9vqf | I'd want the timing done OUTSIDE Qt |
| kb9vqf | because I have no idea if the loss is also due to late Xorg event handling |
| kb9vqf | also, it should be tried on multiple graphics devices |
| Z_God | l0ner: ok, I never used pulse so I'm not sure about the advantages |
| kb9vqf | Really I should probably be the one putting it together because I know how Qt and Xorg work, but I just don't have the time... ( |
| kb9vqf | :( |
| kb9vqf | Let's see how opposed they are to adding in Qt3 functions again |
| kb9vqf | that is another make/break deal |
| Z_God | but I understood a Qt4 port was planned for Trinity? |
| kb9vqf | It's there, but performance is so dismal that I stopped |
| kb9vqf | Also donations are down, etc. so time is limited |
| Z_God | I guess such performance testing would be critical for something like this to evolve |
| l0ner | Z_God: apart form standariztion, things like volume control for each app, accurate latency measuring and other things that user probably wouldn't notice |
| kb9vqf | and then Qt was breaking simple things |
| kb9vqf | basically Qt4 is too much of a shifting unstable buggy slow target to warrant Qt4 support right nowo |
| kb9vqf | *now |
| kb9vqf | Especially since we have control of Qt3 now :0 |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| Z_God | it seems that Qt4 performance did improve significantly over time |
| kb9vqf | It's still not up to par with Qt3 |
| kb9vqf | and never will be due to the extra graphics ops |
| kb9vqf | I guess the question should be this: Why do you want to see Trinity on Qt4? |
| kb9vqf | What are we missing that Qt4 has? |
| Z_God | developer API |
| Z_God | Qt3 is probably not a popular development environment anymore ... |
| Z_God | I wonder now though, what the Opera people think of all this stuff, since they were always really concerned about performance as well |
| kb9vqf | I consider the API to be oversimplified |
| kb9vqf | the Qt4 API that is |
| kb9vqf | so that would not be a concern for mw |
| kb9vqf | *me |
| kb9vqf | We have API docs |
| kb9vqf | so...anything else? |
| Z_God | then it would be just developers ;) |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | but while this touchscreen craze is active developers for "traditional" desktops will be limited |
| Z_God | I'm thinking now about porting a Qt4 demo back to Qt3 |
| kb9vqf | good idea |
| kb9vqf | Qt3 has a superset of most Qt4 features |
| Z_God | if it would show that that would improve performance, I think it would be a perfect test case :) |
| kb9vqf | I'd be interested in the results |
| kb9vqf | My testing is about a year old |
| kb9vqf | and since we have control of the Qt3 API we could theoretically add any usefull new Qt4 functions to Qt3 :) |
| Z_God | how did you test? with the trinity compilation? |
| kb9vqf | With pure Qt apps |
| kb9vqf | I compared the old and new engineering software I mentioned, VirtualBox, and the Octave GUI |
| Z_God | ah ok |
| kb9vqf | all seemed much slower under Qt4 |
| kb9vqf | to the point where I was getting frustrated |
| l0ner | kb9vqf: is there a way to tell the autotools where qt3 is? my qt4 installation gets it the way of kdemultimedia ./configure |
| kb9vqf | there is |
| l0ner | kb9vqf: how? |
| kb9vqf | I was grabbing it :) |
| kb9vqf | --with-qt-dir=/usr/share/qt3 |
| l0ner | ok, thx ;) |
| kb9vqf | np |
| l0ner | kb9vqf: I have no idea how to fix this... http://paste.pocoo.org/show/477690/ |
| kb9vqf | It's detecting your Qt4 development library installation |
| kb9vqf | hmmm |
| kb9vqf | I don't think there's an override for that either |
| l0ner | damn... I'll try to remove qt4 |
| l0ner | it will be pain in my ass... |
| kb9vqf | you only need to remove the development headers |
| kb9vqf | not all of Qt4 |
| l0ner | there is no separation betweeen qt4 and 1t4-dev in gentoo |
| l0ner | since in order to install qt4 you need to compile it |
| l0ner | *qt4-dev |
| kb9vqf | l0ner: Hang on |
| l0ner | ok |
| kb9vqf | you can edit the admin/acinclude.m4.in file if you want |
| kb9vqf | grrr, firefox hung up |
| kb9vqf | basically if you change one line in that file you can bypass the Qt4 detection |
| kb9vqf | Line 1246 |
| kb9vqf | change |
| kb9vqf | kde_qtver=4 |
| kb9vqf | to |
| kb9vqf | kde_qtver=3 |
| l0ner | ok |
| kb9vqf | then rerun |
| kb9vqf | make -f admin/Makefile.cvs |
| kb9vqf | IIRC |
| Z_God | I'm trying to find a suitable demo for testing |
| kb9vqf | make -f admin/Makefile.common |
| kb9vqf | sorry |
| Z_God | I must say that everything in all the demos responds and appears instantly here |
| kb9vqf | are they simple? |
| kb9vqf | like one or two widgets? |
| kb9vqf | and are they interactive? |
| Z_God | I found one which is a dialog full of widgets |
| kb9vqf | link? |
| kb9vqf | ah, maybe I wasn't clear :) |
| kb9vqf | top level widgets |
| kb9vqf | not embedded widgets |
| kb9vqf | so things like subwindows |
| Z_God | if you're on ubuntu there is a package which installs all the demos with binaries |
| kb9vqf | or widgets stacked on other widgets that are not the parent widget |
| kb9vqf | which graphics card are you using as well? |
| Z_God | Intel X4500HD |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | well, there shoudn't be a bias then :) |
| Z_God | I have other comps as well ;) |
| l0ner | kb9vqf: It did not work, same error. |
| kb9vqf | in the output does it say Detected TQt3 or Detected TQT4? |
| l0ner | TQT4 |
| kb9vqf | grr |
| kb9vqf | you reran automake and autoconf? |
| l0ner | yep |
| kb9vqf | something didn't work |
| l0ner | aw, damn |
| kb9vqf | ? |
| l0ner | didn't save file |
| kb9vqf | hehe |
| kb9vqf | that would explain it! |
| l0ner | yep ;) |
| l0ner | i tend to forget about saving when i'm using vim |
| l0ner | or, rather, i try to do it using ctrl-s |
| l0ner | instead of :s |
| kb9vqf | Z_God: I don't think any of those examples are going to show the problem |
| l0ner | *:w |
| kb9vqf | They are too simple |
| Z_God | ok |
| kb9vqf | what you need is a nice complicated MDI app |
| Z_God | I think testcases should be simple though |
| Z_God | so maybe something repetitive |
| kb9vqf | let me put it another way: if you are losing 100us on each Xorg operation, and there are a handful of operations, you won't see the difference |
| kb9vqf | but the computer *may* be able to detect it |
| kb9vqf | now try drawing a complex window when the computer is already under load |
| kb9vqf | maybe thousands of operations |
| kb9vqf | and there will all the sudden be a noticable difference |
| kb9vqf | just a huch |
| kb9vqf | *hunch |
| Z_God | ok |
| Z_God | I think on my other system it would show up quicker |
| Z_God | it has a sis chip or smth |
| kb9vqf | :S |
| kb9vqf | I would concentrate on timing basic Xorg operations |
| Z_God | there's not even any 3d hardware acceleration |
| kb9vqf | so time how long it takes to process a button click |
| kb9vqf | or how long it takes to show() a window |
| kb9vqf | I bet there is a difference |
| kb9vqf | just because I have seen the bowels of the Qt3 and Qt4 code ;-) |
| Z_God | would that already work on a demo app? |
| kb9vqf | Yes, just get the Xlib timing stuff in place |
| kb9vqf | basically you have to filter XLib events |
| kb9vqf | to detect the button press |
| kb9vqf | start a system timer |
| kb9vqf | then stop the timer from within the Qt event handler |
| kb9vqf | and print the result |
| l0ner | kb9vqf: bawwwwww... more errors: http://paste.pocoo.org/show/477699/ |
| kb9vqf | it doesn't know where to find your Qt3 library |
| Z_God | no idea how to work with these events, I need to find some docs |
| kb9vqf | I don't know if this will work but you can try --with-extra-libs= |
| kb9vqf | Z_God: I know, they are not that easy to work with unfortunately |
| l0ner | ok, will try |
| l0ner | the same |
| kb9vqf | hmmm |
| kb9vqf | l0ner: --with-qt-libraries=DIR |
| l0ner | it worked, thx |
| kb9vqf | np |
| *** zcram has quit IRC |
| Z_God | so there is also qt-compositor.... |
| Z_God | which I would assume would be related to operations that could be done with xcomposite |
| Z_God | ah it's not for x11 |
| l0ner | kb9vqf: now it don't see tqt, nor trinity... http://paste.pocoo.org/show/477707/ |
| kb9vqf | now use the --with-extra-libs=DIR option to point to your Trinity library directory |
| l0ner | already did |
| kb9vqf | hmmm |
| kb9vqf | l0ner: Where did you stuff your Trinity libraries? |
| l0ner | well, I was using everyting form the wiki |
| l0ner | without changes |
| l0ner | kb9vqf: /opt/trinity/lib |
| kb9vqf | oh |
| kb9vqf | This might be unrelated but you also need to pass --with-qt-includes=DIR to ./configure |
| kb9vqf | as it cannot find your Qt includes right now |
| l0ner | ok |
| l0ner | nothing changes |
| Z_God | kb9vqf: no idea of this is really related, but I just came across this: http://kjellkod.wordpress.com/2011/05/22/moving-to-qt5-will-that-remove-qts-performance-issues-on-linux/ |
| Z_God | if* |
| kb9vqf | l0ner: I have no idea |
| kb9vqf | it works here |
| kb9vqf | look through the Debian rules files on GIT |
| kb9vqf | see if something is missing |
| l0ner | i'm thinking on dropping gentoo |
| l0ner | i'm getting feeling it's a mess right now |
| kb9vqf | Z_God: So I'm not crazy then :) |
| kb9vqf | Others have noticed it |
| l0ner | kb9vqf: which distros are you supporting apart form debian/ubuntu? |
| kb9vqf | I say Nokia can keep their bloated slow mess :) |
| Z_God | yep, I'm googling a bit and I'm finding multiple posts about this |
| kb9vqf | l0ner: Weel, I have someone working on RedHat |
| Z_God | even came across a blog post from a KDE dev complaining on Qt4 speed VS Qt3 |
| kb9vqf | slackware might be available |
| l0ner | i have bad memories with slack |
| l0ner | arch? |
| kb9vqf | I just don't have time to fight with Gentoo |
| Z_God | but I wonder what that graphicssystem raster is about |
| kb9vqf | Z_God: A hack for one graphics chip only |
| l0ner | to be honest, nor me |
| kb9vqf | If you want it to work out of the box with minimal hassle try Ubuntu or Debian |
| kb9vqf | Anything else and you are getting another person or team involved |
| l0ner | I know, but I don't like both of them, ubuntu is too bloated for me, forcing me to do things i don't want to do, and debian removes software i use from repo because it's "philosophically |
| l0ner | " bad |
| Z_God | l0ner: what kind of software do you miss? |
| Z_God | kb9vqf: just read that one of the objectives of Qt5 is to make better use of the GPU |
| kb9vqf | Z_God: I'll believe it when I see it |
| l0ner | firefox, some things i need for mu uni.... I don't remember right now, but there was some... |
| kb9vqf | I have been completely unimpressed with Nokia's treatment of Qt |
| kb9vqf | Yeah, stay away from Debian then |
| kb9vqf | But if you use Gentoo then you need to be able to debug things yourself ;-) |
| Z_God | l0ner: iceweasel is firefox+debian patches |
| Z_God | the reason they do not ship it as firefox is because the Mozilla people didn't want the Debian people to include their own patches and still use the Firefox name |
| l0ner | I know, yet I dont know why but i don't like it |
| Z_God | but the Debian people want to be able to patch things themselves, it's kind of the point of having the source I'd say as well |
| l0ner | well, the firefox wasn't the biggest issue. There were other reasons wich I don't remember now |
| Z_God | kb9vqf: in case you happen to be interested, this GPU thing is mentioned here: http://labs.qt.nokia.com/2011/05/09/thoughts-about-qt-5/ |
| kb9vqf | Yeah, and in the same article it sounds like they are getting rid of more stuff |
| kb9vqf | My instinct tells me that will be more of the "useless" traditional desktop oriented code |
| Z_God | I see |
| kb9vqf | I would love to be proven wrong |
| Z_God | so then a decent feature suggestion would be indeed about qt3support |
| Z_God | because it seems at least they are aware they should use the GPU more |
| kb9vqf | and they would probably reject it for the these reasons: |
| kb9vqf | 1.) It makes the API more complicated (and our poor baby developers can't handle that) |
| kb9vqf | 2.) It hurts performance in unspecified ways (i.e. we don't know how to add features and keep performance) |
| kb9vqf | 3.) There's no need for the features (since most mobile phone apps have a few buttons (to pay with) and a video output widget) |
| kb9vqf | /sarcasm |
| Z_God | it seems their main objective is indeed one API to program for multiple platforms |
| l0ner | ok guys, I'm going to sleep |
| Z_God | so someone we need to convince that Qt should also stay focussed on the advanced desktop segment of apps |
| Z_God | which do not require mobile versions |
| l0ner | and tommorow I will try installing TDE on Arch |
| l0ner | cya |
| Z_God | but do require an extensive API |
| kb9vqf | ok, see ya :) |
| Z_God | l0ner: good night! |
| l0ner | thx ;) |
| kb9vqf | that would only happen when Nokia gets its fingers off of Qt completely |
| kb9vqf | and if someone takes over who believes the traditional desktop is here to stay |
| *** l0ner is now known as l0ner_away |
| kb9vqf | according to the tech news, I don't think that will happen |
| Z_God | yes, but I'm trying to come up with a decent writing for a feature request now :) |
| kb9vqf | everyone thinks the traditional desktop is dead |
| Z_God | just interested in seeing how it will be handled |
| kb9vqf | sure |
| kb9vqf | I wish you luck |
| Z_God | I would say your point about content creation is valid |
| kb9vqf | they have been less than nice to me and others about adding "old stuff" back in |
| Z_God | and I think Qt was also used for such applications |
| kb9vqf | content creation is rapidly headed for control of a very few individuals who can pay through the nose for the tools to do it :( |
| kb9vqf | scary thought :(( |
| Z_God | I don't know, I see more & better free video & image as well |
| kb9vqf | yes, but not from tables |
| kb9vqf | *tablets |
| kb9vqf | and not from people using desktops that run tablet-oriented software |
| Z_God | oops, I forget the word 'editors' |
| kb9vqf | ah, yes :) |
| kb9vqf | I agree there |
| Z_God | I mean software like The Gimp and kdenlive |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | they are nice |
| kb9vqf | though OpenShot runs circles around its KDE4 equivalent |
| kb9vqf | but I dare you to compare 3ds max 7, for instance, to the best "modern" application available |
| kb9vqf | there is light years of difference there |
| kb9vqf | or 3ds max 9 |
| Z_God | I don't know anything about those things |
| kb9vqf | or anything from the high-end professional end :) |
| kb9vqf | *side |
| Z_God | I guess the differences may be increasing, but it doesn't mean free content creation is not evolving as well |
| kb9vqf | It is becoming harder to create quality content without paying a LOT of money for the tools |
| kb9vqf | it used to be that you could just buy the one package |
| kb9vqf | now you have to buy the package, the desktop operating system (which is now considered "professional" and comes with an inflated price tag), the desktop computer (same applies), etc. |
| Z_God | which component should I pick if I'd write a suggestion as above? |
| kb9vqf | no idea |
| Z_God | I don't really know what kind of classes were in qt3support actually ;) |
| Z_God | there is widgets |
| kb9vqf | I would poke around a bit honestly |
| kb9vqf | in Qt3Suport |
| kb9vqf | the stuff I miss most are iin the painting classes |
| * kb9vqf can't type :-P |
| Z_God | ok :) |
| Z_God | I'm looking through the list now |
| Z_God | indeed typical desktop things |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| kb9vqf | I don't make this stuff up :) |
| kb9vqf | though sometimes I wish I was.... :( |
| Z_God | ah there is a porting from Qt3 to Qt4 component :) |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| kb9vqf | and there are a lot of missing features there |
| kb9vqf | look at all the places it says "rewrite your code to use this and such" |
| kb9vqf | but what is suggests is not actually an equivalent feature |
| Z_God | ok |
| Z_God | I wrote a piece |
| Z_God | I'll show it before I submit it |
| Z_God | http://pastebin.com/L8mY8Ek2 |
| Z_God | kb9vqf: you think this is indeed the essence of the issue? you think you could give some examples of things that are really lacking in Qt4 now? |
| kb9vqf | Might work |
| kb9vqf | let's see what they say |
| kb9vqf | I think they will claim "our API is good enough" |
| kb9vqf | as I said I don't have time to chase Nokia down and make them add stuff to Qt |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| Z_God | you think I should name a couple of APIs from Qt3 that you are really missing now in Qt4? |
| kb9vqf | sure |
| kb9vqf | more evidence always helps |
| Z_God | do you have a couple in your mind? :) |
| kb9vqf | not really |
| kb9vqf | it's more like being pecked to death by ducks |
| Z_God | I could also write something like |
| kb9vqf | e.g. the painting class is missing a lot of weird stuff that Qt3 hadd |
| kb9vqf | *had |
| Z_God | especially many APIs from the painting class in Qt3 would be very useful to see again in Qt5 |
| kb9vqf | And even then, TQt took care of a lot of the translation |
| kb9vqf | but the result was slow as molasses because of their graphics problems |
| Z_God | I see |
| kb9vqf | I know my biases are showing all over the place today :) |
| kb9vqf | but I truly consider Qt4 to be completely not worth the effort to fix |
| kb9vqf | it doesn't gain us anything |
| kb9vqf | except maybe Webkit, but that could be included elsewhere |
| kb9vqf | and besides if a Gecko engine is viable I would rather use that |
| Z_God | hehe |
| Z_God | did you see this? |
| Z_God | http://labs.qt.nokia.com/2008/02/04/qt-44-and-painting-performance/ |
| Z_God | it seems even at nokia they can describe slow qt stuff in all kinds of ways |
| kb9vqf | oohh, nasty |
| kb9vqf | you did see their "solution", right? |
| kb9vqf | Qt doesn't us Xorg windows any more!!!! |
| kb9vqf | that means there is no way to bypass Qt and do nasty (I mean fast) things to to the windows |
| kb9vqf | :-P |
| kb9vqf | more limitations to hack around their limitations |
| kb9vqf | grrrr |
| Z_God | that seems nasty yeah |
| Z_God | I suppose it's X11 windows though? |
| kb9vqf | their alien hack is for X11 |
| Z_God | btw. I look at QPainter and Q3Painter |
| kb9vqf | but it basically decouples Qt from X11 |
| Z_God | but the first is much bigger |
| kb9vqf | the API you mean? |
| Z_God | yes |
| kb9vqf | yes, but for being bigger it doesn't have equivalent features from Qt3 :-P |
| kb9vqf | IIRC it is actually harder to do things like handle polygon drawing in Qt4 |
| Z_God | there's a drawPolygon though |
| kb9vqf | I know |
| kb9vqf | I can't come up with examples OTOH |
| kb9vqf | All I remember is that there were missing things in Qt4 painting |
| kb9vqf | or things that were much harder to do |
| kb9vqf | native X11 painting in particular stunk |
| Z_God | they are also missing in Qt3Support? |
| kb9vqf | Qt3support is dead |
| kb9vqf | it won't be available in Qt5 |
| Z_God | I guess it wouldn't allow X11 painting at all then? |
| kb9vqf | probably not |
| kb9vqf | which == slow |
| kb9vqf | in many cases :) |
| Z_God | yep, but Q3Painter is a wrapper around QPainter it says |
| kb9vqf | Sometime you should take a look at an intensive chunk of the Trinity source |
| Z_God | so that would mean that code based on Q3Painter could be made to work with QPainter by looking at how the wrapper works |
| kb9vqf | then try to match up required features with Qt4 |
| kb9vqf | trust me, you'll get a headache fast |
| Z_God | but I think the direct X11 support is a good one |
| Z_God | because I already wrote about high performance |
| kb9vqf | Guess how I did TQt for Qt4 ;-) |
| kb9vqf | And like I mentioned earlier, it works but it's slow |
| kb9vqf | and buggy |
| kb9vqf | very buggy |
| kb9vqf | the native X11 stuff is completely broken |
| kb9vqf | and now I know why :-P |
| Z_God | now I added this sentence |
| Z_God | Especially features like directly working with the X11 window, which is needed for high performance desktop applications would make Qt more suitable again for the second category of applications. |

| Z_God | kb9vqf: just for testing, I installed an old copy of SuSE 8.0 (KDE 3.0.0) to see how the kmozillapart worked with it |
| Z_God | here is a screenshot: http://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-2qNW_UqKE8I/TnX64bVco6I/AAAAAAAAAds/YP3wlbg--mk/s576/konqueror_using_gecko.png |
| Z_God | the main noticable thing is the scolling bar on the right side, which is the XUL one from the modern Mozilla theme |
| Z_God | if it would be somehow useful to get more info or maybe a copy of the VM, I ready to help |
| Z_God | am^ |
| kb9vqf | Cool! |
| kb9vqf | At this point the main task would be to forward-port the kpart to gtk2 |
| *** sultan2 has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Z_God | at first sight, this appears to be trivial |
| Z_God | by commenting only a few lines, I got it to compile against gtk2 |
| jentron | does trinity work on debian sid? |
| Z_God | jentron: should work fine |
| jentron | OK, thanks. I guess the question should include, are there packages, or do I have to build my own? |
| Z_God | this is never fully tested, but in general debian (and also ubuntu) keep compatibility with packages for older versions |
| Z_God | sometimes you just need to add the repository of the older version as well when some packages have been removed |
| Z_God | but then apt will just solve the dependency issues & install it all |
| Z_God | so the package for the most recent debian version will probably work the best on sid |
| jentron | Alright. I'll experiment with it, then. I just installed 4.6 for the first time on a system I built... I don't like it at all. |
| Z_God | good luck, if you enjoyed KDE 3, you will also enjoy Trinity :) |
| jentron | Hope so. :) |
| *** KingSphinx has joined #trinity-desktop |
| *** KingSphinx has quit IRC |
| Z_God | kb9vqf: I think I fixed everything to allow it to work with gtk2 |
| kb9vqf | really? |
| kb9vqf | cool! |
| Z_God | there were 2 offending things |
| kb9vqf | does it work then on modernr Trinity versions? |
| Z_God | and in the gtk porting guide I read how to replace those |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| Z_God | so now it compiles |
| kb9vqf | great :) |
| kb9vqf | can you send in a patch if it works? |
| Z_God | I have no idea about build systems and so on |
| Z_God | so I edited the Makefile for now to include the right include paths |
| kb9vqf | that's fine |
| kb9vqf | send me the patch and I'll fix the bulid system |
| kb9vqf | *build |
| kb9vqf | if it works of course :) |
| Z_God | I think it needs to use the pkgconfig infrastructure or smth like that to find the paths |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | most of that is already in place and I can handle that end of things |
| Z_God | I will look at kmozillapart now & see how it'll go |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | sounds good! |
| kb9vqf | btw don't worry about the scrollbars |
| kb9vqf | I have an idea of how to fix those |
| Z_God | I have no idea how this is working with the newer Mozilla stuff |
| Z_God | I suppose I have to compile against xulrunner now |
| Z_God | the version on SuSE ran either against Netscape 6 or Mozilla 0.9.8, so I can imagine things changed on that side as well.... |
| kb9vqf | yes, most likely |
| kb9vqf | so I guess hold off on sending a patch until you can fix the entire kpart |
| kb9vqf | if it works well it will probably gain you an honorable mention in the release notes :) |
| kb9vqf | I get KHTML complaints all the time |
| Z_God | I'll really a n00b at C & C++ though, so don't expect too much! |
| Z_God | the original stuff was apparently broken already, so it would probably take quite a bit of effort to get it to work stably |
| Z_God | but if it's possible get something going, who knows how things may continue :) |
| kb9vqf | well, this is a good learning opportunity for you |
| kb9vqf | and you are right :) |
| kb9vqf | that's the idea |
| kb9vqf | it's a lot easier for me to sit down with something that fails under certain circumstances and fix it |
| kb9vqf | I waste a lot of time in getting stuff to even compile |
| Z_God | I can imagine yes... also it would be a shame to have the xparts code not maintained at all, so I hope this pre-work could at least be useful if someone else would want to look further at it |
| Z_God | right now it tries to link btw |
| Z_God | but can't find the right lib |
| kb9vqf | well, force it manually |
| kb9vqf | and make a note of the needed library that can't be found |
| Z_God | the problem is that I also cannot find the lib ;) |
| Z_God | ah apparently it's called libxul instead of gtkmozembed now, let's see what happens... |
| Z_God | it's built!! |
| Z_God | I had to make similar changes to dcopc as well, but now I have a binary :) |
| Z_God | now I need to know what exactly is necessary to register a kpart in trinity... |
| kb9vqf | IIRC you just place the .so or .la file (I forget which one :-P) in with all the other kparts, then copy the .desktop file (which lets Trinity know that there is a kpart) from the source directory into the folder with all the other kpart .desktop files |
| Z_God | ok |
| Z_God | and I guess the binary & libs just need to be in a spot where they can be found.. |
| Z_God | ok, that's done |
| Z_God | it seems there is an issue with dcop registration |
| Z_God | kb9vqf: do you know much about DCOP & what such messages mean? http://pastebin.com/g0GLxdXG |
| Z_God | all of this output is printed after I switch the view mode from khtml to kmozilla |
| Z_God | it's failing in the code after line 606 in this file: http://websvn.kde.org/branches/trinity/kdebindings/dcopc/dcopc.c?view=markup |
| Z_God | I did make the changes to dcopc for gtk2 as well |
| kb9vqf | Z_God: Could be that the protocol is now out of date |
| Z_God | yes, I suspect the same |
| Z_God | it seems this call is failing dcop_client_call |
| Z_God | I added some debugging messages there & it doesn't get inside the if |
| kb9vqf | what are the changes from this file? |
| kb9vqf | http://websvn.kde.org/branches/trinity/kdelibs/dcop/dcopc.c?revision=1212479&view=markup |
| Z_God | while googling a bit, I actually noticed that this code was still in some KDE 4 versions O_O |
| kb9vqf | I am wondering if you can take the kdelibs/dcop/dcopc.c file and overwrite the kdebindings/dcopc/dcopc.c file without problems or not |
| kb9vqf | i.e. if changes were made to the kdelibs version to make it work with GTK |
| Z_God | it looks different to me |
| kb9vqf | ok, then I wonder what the differences in dcop_client_call between those two files are |
| Z_God | it's returning a gboolean |
| Z_God | I think that's something from gtk or glib |
| Z_God | I can't find dcop_client_call at all in the kdelibs dcopc.c |
| Z_God | I guess dcopc there means dcop client and the one I need to fix is the dcop c bindings one |
| Z_God | there are several spots in the method were it returns false, I'll add some debug lines to see which one is triggered |
| Z_God | I'm also getting quite a few warning when compiling this code btw (unused parameters mainly) |
| Z_God | so I guess it wasn't maintained much |
| Z_God | it seems dcop_client_call_internal actually succeeds.... |
| kb9vqf | dcop is somewhat nasty in general |
| kb9vqf | keep tracing it I guess |
| kb9vqf | that's all I would be able to do |
| kb9vqf | once you find what is hanging it will be blindingly obvious ;-) |
| kb9vqf | Z_God: One suggestion for you: Change line 889 to read *reply_type = strdup( "TQCStringList" ); instead of *reply_type = strdup( "QCStringList" ); |
| kb9vqf | err, never mind :-P |
| kb9vqf | QCStringList is a valid type IIRC |
| Z_God | maybe something is going wrong with the gboolean |
| Z_God | it seems to be true, but it's not entering the if |
| Z_God | and then result indeed stays null |
| Z_God | ah no I need to look more carefully at the code, success is a variable that can be FALSE... |
| Z_God | it seems I need to debug (or somehow learn to understand) libICE |
| Z_God | it's already past 4am though, so I will sleep now first |
| Z_God | kb9vqf: thanks a lot for all the pointers so far! this seems very interesting :) |
| Z_God | good night! |
| Z_God | (day) |
| kb9vqf | np |
| kb9vqf | glad to help |
| kb9vqf | and if we get a Gecko engine out of it so much the better :) |
| Z_God | seems cool yeah :) |
| MutantTurkey | o/ |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: i think i have it almost |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: the make install, goes to the ../ of my INSTALL_ROOT... really annoyingh |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: It works! |
| kb9vqf | great! |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| MutantTurkey | yeah. |
| MutantTurkey | I need to figure out where some stuff goes |
| MutantTurkey | like translations |
| MutantTurkey | probably in /usr/share/ |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: all hell is being raised. |
| MutantTurkey | basically whatever the depth a file (to be installed) is located, is the same depth they use for the source, that assumes they are equal, so i end up with files randomly scattered across my FS. files in like ../../../../ and ../../ |
| MutantTurkey | actually, I have no idea what is going on |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: yeah... still I have no idea. it's weird. I am going to try a clean build |

| Z_God | do you get any output when you try to launch kcontrol? |
| Fat-Zer | no |
| Z_God | maybe try installing kde-guidance now and see if you get some modules then |
| Z_God | it seems several are included in that package |
| Fat-Zer | in what module is it? |
| Z_God | the kcontrol modules have filenames like *kcm* |
| Z_God | I guess you would have to get applications/kde-guidance and see if its modules will show up |
| Fat-Zer | find /usr/kde/3.5/lib/ -iname '*kcm*' : http://paste.pocoo.org/show/478423/ |
| Z_God | hmm, I'd say at least some of those should show up |
| Fat-Zer | may be some environment varyables are not setted? |
| Z_God | I have no idea... |
| Z_God | everything else works fine? |
| Fat-Zer | nothing... currently i compiled only some modules (http://paste.pocoo.org/show/478289/) and i tried to test if they works correct |
| Z_God | then I would suggest getting into trinity using startkde first & see how that goes |
| Z_God | but I know very little about how these things works, I guess that if you do not install things in standard places (to avoid conflicts with KDE4) it indeed may be a bit trickier to get it to find all its files |

| Z_God | kb9vqf: hi :) I'm still looking through the code, but there's a part where I think I need a hint |
| Z_God | I found line 777 in this file is the moment things seem to appear bad: http://websvn.kde.org/branches/trinity/kdebindings/dcopc/dcopc.c?view=markup |
| Z_God | my problem is that I cannot find the declaration of this P that is being used throughout this code |
| kb9vqf | While I am not sure where P is declared, I can say that the structure is consistent with some sort of private data object |
| kb9vqf | so it may be similar to d->foo that is in use throughout the Trinity source |
| kb9vqf | Try searching for its data member "ice_conn" |
| Z_God | ok.. you think it will be in kdebindings or would I have to search larger parts of the trinity source? |
| Z_God | there are several things going on there that seem like magic to me btw |
| Z_God | the call on line 777, changes the reply.status that is checked on 790 |
| Z_God | the struct is indeed in the same file... |
| Z_God | and P is at line 109 |
| Z_God | ok thanks a lot, I hope I can understand things a bit better now :) |
| Z_God | ok, this code is just for the reception of the message that something failed |
| Z_God | another message that had been sent before is probably the cause of the real failure |
| Z_God | I wonder if there are any dcop debugging tricks... |
| Z_God | kb9vqf: is there an error log from DCOP that I can access somewhere or is there another way to collect errors from DCOP? |
| *** affect has joined #trinity-desktop |
| kb9vqf | Z_God: You have to recompile dcop (in kdelibs) with debugging turned on |
| kb9vqf | There are #defines that control the debugging |
| kb9vqf | IIRC there are some in dcopserver.cpp and some in dcopclient.cpp |
| Z_God | ok |
| Z_God | and then it'll print info to stderr? |
| kb9vqf | IIRC yes |
| kb9vqf | some might be saved to a special dcop server logile |
| kb9vqf | *logfile |
| kb9vqf | the path to that file would be in the dcopserver.* files |
| kb9vqf | *source files |
| Z_God | ok |
| Z_God | I hope this will give me some kind of verbose info |
| kb9vqf | yes it will :) |
| kb9vqf | I have had to debug DCOP once before |
| Z_God | ok, great :) |
| kb9vqf | It is not fun at all |
| kb9vqf | good luck :) |
| Z_God | I suspect that the dcopc is out of date or smth with the protocol |
| kb9vqf | that is my guess as well |
| kb9vqf | too bad there is no changelog for DCOP |
| Z_God | I hope I won't have do go through all kinds of special ways for C <> C++ conversion |

| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: the make install command is sort of freaking me out |
| kb9vqf | how so? |
| kb9vqf | don't you have any stock Qt3 packaging scripts that you can reference for your distro? |
| MutantTurkey | I do. |
| MutantTurkey | and they are using an identical commmand |
| MutantTurkey | either way, they don't pull from git. |
| MutantTurkey | which is why it is weird |
| MutantTurkey | they also use |
| MutantTurkey | make INSTALL_ROOT=${pkgdir} install |
| MutantTurkey | what is happening to me, reproducably, is that there are a ton of ../ moves (and like ../../ and ../../../ |
| MutantTurkey | so instead of installing to /home/calvin/trinity/dependencies/qt3/pkg it ends up in /calvin/trinity or /calvin |
| MutantTurkey | all over the place |
| MutantTurkey | and thne a FEW are in the actual dir. |

| Z_God | is there a way to print the contents of a TQByteArray or TQString to a terminal? |
| Fat-Zer | std::cout<<(const char*) tqstr; |
| Fat-Zer | no? |
| kb9vqf | No, I have never seen the "Corrupt data!" message |
| kb9vqf | printf(TQString("foo").ascii()); |
| kb9vqf | or rather printf("%s", TQString("foo").ascii()); |
| Z_God | thanks, that should help a lot :) |
| Z_God | let's see.... |
| Z_God | it seems the marshalling of the data in dcopc is broken |
| Z_God | it doesn't seem to work... |
| *** MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Z_God | I'm trying to view the contents of ba declared at line 721 in this file http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/kdelibs/dcop/dcopserver.cpp?revision=129821&view=markup&pathrev=129821 |
| Z_God | after it has been filled by IceReadData at line 722 |
| Z_God | when I print fromApp.data() and toApp().data() a bit lower, I get two strings back, which are derived from the QDataStream based on that QByteArray |
| MutantTurkey | Z_God: go on... |
| Z_God | so I'm quite sure it's filled with something |
| Z_God | when I do this: printf("Trying to print: ba.data()==%s\n", TQString(ba.data()).ascii()); |
| MutantTurkey | what are the strings returned? |
| Z_God | I get nothing however |
| Z_God | they are things like "kded" and "DCOPServer" |
| MutantTurkey | hrm |
| MutantTurkey | and what do you expect? |
| Z_God | that I see at least those back when I print the whole array where the readQCString extract them from |
| Z_God | hmm, maybe \0 is used as some kind of separator in the array? |
| Z_God | I didn't see any proper DCOP message specs |
| MutantTurkey | I don't really know how DCOP works |
| Fat-Zer | try to print raw data: |
| Fat-Zer | printf("Trying to print: ba.size()==%d\n data:", ba.size()); |
| Fat-Zer | for(int i=0;i<ba.size();i++) printf("%02X\n", ba.data()); |
| Fat-Zer | and it's usefull to fill array with zeros before reading it... for debug... |
| Z_God | it displays just 85B1870 |
| MutantTurkey | Z_God: do you have any DCOP documentation? |
| Z_God | I only saw the official docs describing how to use the C++ implementation |
| Z_God | but they do not really give info on the message format |
| MutantTurkey | weird |
| Z_God | normally it wouldn't be really needed |
| Z_God | but in this case I need to use dcopc, which is the dcop C implentation |
| Z_God | which appears to be out of sync & thus incompatible |
| MutantTurkey | okay I am confused as to what you are doing :P |
| MutantTurkey | what are you up too with DCOP? |
| Z_God | I'm trying to get kmozilla to work |
| MutantTurkey | oh cool |
| Z_God | it's a kpart which embeds a Mozilla browser |
| Z_God | it uses this xparts to be able to embed a gtk app |
| Z_God | I already managed to convert the code to compile against gtk2 (from gtk1.2) |
| Z_God | now I need to get the C based DCOP library going |
| Z_God | dcopserver is getting corrupted messages from it now |
| Z_God | so I'm trying to get more info from dcopserver, to see why it cannot handle them |
| MutantTurkey | the mozilla backend gecko? |
| Z_God | yes |
| MutantTurkey | why do you need DCOP? |
| MutantTurkey | for the kpart? |
| Z_God | it uses dcop for communication |
| Z_God | between the GTK C part and Qt C++ part |
| MutantTurkey | used gtkmm |
| MutantTurkey | just a though |
| Z_God | the GTK part is completely running in another process |
| MutantTurkey | okay |
| MutantTurkey | so does the DCOP library for C exist already? |
| Z_God | I'm just trying to get the original kmozilla in the trinity tree to work actually |
| Z_God | I'm not writing anything myself ;) |
| Z_God | yep, it's also in the trinity tree |
| Z_God | http://websvn.kde.org/branches/trinity/kdebindings/dcopc/ |
| MutantTurkey | oh cool |
| Z_God | and this is the kpart itself http://websvn.kde.org/branches/trinity/kdebindings/xparts/mozilla/ |
| MutantTurkey | so is the DCOP in C broken or is the mozilla -> DCOP broken? |
| Z_God | 1st |
| Z_God | dcopc is not able to send valid messages to dcopserver |
| MutantTurkey | did the dcop format change? |
| MutantTurkey | also are there other implementations of DCOP (python or anything?) |
| Z_God | that's is the question, I checked older DCOP code and it seems quite similar |
| Z_God | I don't know |
| MutantTurkey | did the DCOPC change at all? |
| Z_God | the marshalling is also using some tricks that I do not really understand |
| MutantTurkey | I don't know much of anything, I am just a humble packager |
| MutantTurkey | I am like that guy who does whatever random tasks assigned |
| Z_God | the code is around line 738 here: http://websvn.kde.org/branches/trinity/kdebindings/dcopc/dcopc.c?view=markup |
| Z_God | a DCOP command basically consists of 3 things, the local app, the remote app and the command |
| Z_God | the first two at least are normal strings |
| MutantTurkey | so give me an example of a dcop command |
| MutantTurkey | and what type of connection is it? |
| MutantTurkey | a socket? |
| Z_God | on one side gchars, the other TQCString |
| Z_God | yes |
| Z_God | unix socket |
| MutantTurkey | do you have a wrapper function for the gchars to TQCtring? |
| MutantTurkey | or are they both just enumerations for char? |
| Z_God | of course, all the magic needs to happen on the dcopc side |
| MutantTurkey | right |
| Z_God | it has several marshall methods to change the format |
| Z_God | and those I do not fully understand |
| Z_God | and example of a dcop command is: dcop kdesktop KBackgroundIface changeWallpaper |
| MutantTurkey | okay |
| Z_God | you could run it from a shell to change your wallpaper |
| MutantTurkey | okay |
| MutantTurkey | so works similar to dbus |
| Z_God | yes, dbus is the successor of dcop |
| MutantTurkey | I know |
| Z_God | Fat-Zer: it seems there is an i missing in the printf? |
| Z_God | that's why it's printing the same stuff over & over.... not sure coding at night is always smart :) |
| MutantTurkey | what is the function you are using? |
| MutantTurkey | http://websvn.kde.org/branches/trinity/kdebindings/dcopc/dcopc.c?view=markup |
| MutantTurkey | sorry |
| Z_God | for(int i=0;i<ba.size();i++) printf("%02X\n", ba.data()); |
| Z_God | I'd like to print the contents of the full array |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: got it working |
| MutantTurkey | Z_God: paste the section of your code into a pastie okay? |
| Z_God | alright |
| MutantTurkey | I can't read it like hat :P |
| Z_God | the main issue is I'm a C n00b ;) |
| MutantTurkey | I can help |
| MutantTurkey | I am adequate in C |
| MutantTurkey | and I am good at GTK/GDK stack if you need any other help with that |
| Z_God | http://pastebin.com/08BxJCB4 |
| Z_God | this is how I modified the code now |
| MutantTurkey | http://pastebin.com/08BxJCB4 |
| Z_God | the fromApp and toApp are printed successfully for normal apps like konq |
| Z_God | but they are null for kmozilla |
| Z_God | they are extracted from the array using the readQCString methods |
| Z_God | so I hope to print the original TQByteArray to see if I can find the differences between the normal operation and what it gets from dcopc |
| MutantTurkey | dude you need to learn how to space stuff out. |
| Z_God | yeah, it's a mess |
| MutantTurkey | ba.size.. what is that? |
| MutantTurkey | ba.size? |
| MutantTurkey | and does it output anything right now? |
| Z_God | TQByteArray ba( length ); |
| MutantTurkey | okay |
| Z_God | line 4 in the paste |
| MutantTurkey | right |
| Z_God | it does not output anything with the first 2 attempts |
| MutantTurkey | is the array always 4 elements? |
| MutantTurkey | or a certain number? |
| Z_God | can be any number |
| MutantTurkey | oh okay |
| MutantTurkey | I didn't know if it was fixed |
| Z_God | Fat-Zer: gave me the for loop, but it is not fully correct yet |
| MutantTurkey | printf("%02X\n, ba.data()); |
| MutantTurkey | thats the problem i think |
| Z_God | it always prints the first part |
| Z_God | yes, the i needs to be used in the printf, but I'm not sure how to do that |
| MutantTurkey | printf needs to use the %s |
| MutantTurkey | so like |
| MutantTurkey | printf("here is a few chars. char 1 = %s char 2 = %s", char one variable, char 2 variable |
| Z_God | I'm going to try it first with hexadecimal output |
| MutantTurkey | ... |
| MutantTurkey | just fix printf |
| Z_God | to make sure \0 won't be a problem |
| MutantTurkey | thats not |
| MutantTurkey | printf("%s", ba.data()); |
| MutantTurkey | try that |
| MutantTurkey | forget about any formtatting |
| Fat-Zer | printf("%s", ba.data()[i]); |
| Z_God | I think that's basically line 6 |
| MutantTurkey | what he said |
| Z_God | ah no |
| MutantTurkey | i think Fat-Zer is right |
| Z_God | will add the [i] |
| MutantTurkey | I can't tell I am too tired |
| MutantTurkey | wait is ba.data a function? |
| Z_God | it's working it seems |
| Fat-Zer | http://doc.qt.nokia.com/3.3/qbytearray-members.html |
| MutantTurkey | Z_God: awesome! |
| Z_God | I'm getting the whole array in hex |
| Fat-Zer | qt is really good-documented... |
| MutantTurkey | as well as gtk |
| MutantTurkey | large projects tend to be |
| MutantTurkey | because they have entire teams working on docs. |
| MutantTurkey | okay I gotta stop by the ATM and grocery store... I'll be back later. |

| Z_God | хехе, ты блиско Москвы? |
| Fat-Zer | в Москве |
| Z_God | здорово :) |
| Z_God | I see the problem now I think btw |
| Fat-Zer | и это говорит человек, живущий в Голандии=) |
| Z_God | there are multiple extra 00 characters after the length, which makes dcop trip |
| Z_God | да, был 2 раза в Москве |
| Z_God | это красивый город! |
| Z_God | следуюшая неделя, я буду начинать учиться русский язык в университете, поэтому мне надо трейнираваться ;) |
| Fat-Zer | у тебя неплохо получалось... до последней фразы... |
| Z_God | спасибо ! |
| Z_God | я пробоваю :) |
| Z_God | думаю что я буду спать сейчас |
| Z_God | понимаю сейчас где проблема, буду смотреть больше завтра... |
| Z_God | спокойной ночи! |
| Z_God | it seems I know where the problem comes from, I guess either dcop used to be more tolerant in the past or some of the functions used by dcopc were slightly changed which caused some extra bytes to be inserted |
| Fat-Zer | спокойной... |
| Z_God | hope to look at it more tomorrow, good night all! |
| Fat-Zer | maybe it's not there... |
| Z_God | Fat-Zer: пока! ещё спасибо за помоча! |
| Z_God | what do you mean? |
| Fat-Zer | i can't see source... websvn.kde.org is down for me now... |

| MutantTurkey | I've used them all |
| Fat-Zer | my only and the one is gentoo... but i still haven't tried slackware, but i belive i von't like it... |
| MutantTurkey | gitmeh |
| MutantTurkey | gentoo is meh for me |
| MutantTurkey | It's to much work |
| Fat-Zer | all work is done by compiller... you just tell it ones what you want =) |

| Z_God | kb9vqf: maybe you can give me some advice again! |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| Z_God | I actually got dcopc to communicate with dcopserver |
| samelian | kb9vqf: I commited last part of cmake support for kdenetwork |
| samelian | test it when you have time |
| kb9vqf | cool (to both of you) |
| Z_God | it turned out some byte orders were reversed |
| Z_God | the initial registration succeeds now |
| kb9vqf | makes sense with the DCOP changes theory |
| Z_God | but now it gets kicked again after a few seconds and I see this on the dcopserver side |
| Z_God | DCOP aborting call from 'konqueror-25730' to 'kmozilla-25742' |
| Z_God | DCOP aborting while waiting for answer from 'konqueror-25730' |
| Z_God | and then it unregisters kmozilla-25742 |
| kb9vqf | huh |
| kb9vqf | looks like kmozilla is not responding to a call |
| Z_God | or maybe the other way around |
| Z_God | because konq doesn't understand a certain call from kmozilla |
| kb9vqf | I'm looking at this: DCOP aborting call from 'konqueror-25730' to 'kmozilla-25742' |
| kb9vqf | That sounds like kmozilla is not responding to a call |
| kb9vqf | It would help if you knew which commands were being sent where |
| kb9vqf | IIRC there is a debug option to turn that on |
| Z_God | ok, let me see.... |
| Z_God | I already uncommented #define DCOP_DEBUG and added #undef NDEBUG which gave me a lot more output |
| kb9vqf | Look at DCOP_LOG |
| kb9vqf | in dcopserver.cpp |
| Z_God | ah :) |
| Z_God | I wonder where those logs end up though... |
| Z_God | I guess somewhere in ~/.trinity |
| kb9vqf | In your home directory actually |
| Z_God | ok :) |
| Z_God | right I have the messages |
| Z_God | but without any application names |
| kb9vqf | you might have to modify the debug statement to include the app names |
| kb9vqf | that is, the #ifdefed statement that prints messages to the log file |

| *** ChanServ sets mode: +o kb9vqf |
| kb9vqf | Z_God: sorry, logged off accidentally |
| Z_God | np, there is only one message after loading kmozilla it seems a registerAs(TQCString) |
| Z_God | all the other registerAs(TQCString) messages are also accompanied by a setDaemonMode(bool) message |
| kb9vqf | so kmozilla sends the registerAs request? |
| Z_God | yes |
| Z_God | at least it's send again when I reload kmozilla |
| Z_God | also this registration is confirmed |
| Z_God | on the kmozilla side I get a proper reply and kmozilla is indeed registered for a short moment |
| Z_God | after that both sides seem to expect something different |
| *** K`zan has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Z_God | kb9vqf: btw you should let me know at what point you think I should start sending patches |
| kb9vqf | let's try after the DCOP problem is fixed |
| Z_God | alright :) |
| Z_God | btw |
| Z_God | when dcopserver has unregistered kmozilla |
| Z_God | it still gets another message from kmozilla |
| Z_God | which it discards as DCOPReply for unknown connection. |
| Z_God | so it seems that kmozilla is still under the assumption that is has a registration |
| Z_God | it* |
| Z_God | so I guess that indeed there is a message that kmozilla may not respond properly to |
| Z_God | kmozilla recieves 3 messages 2x a windowId() and then a show() |
| kb9vqf | well, either that or dcopserver is expecing something back from kmozilla |
| kb9vqf | dcopserver can terminate the connection if it doesn't like something |
| Z_God | hmm ok |
| Z_God | could it be that it gets windowId() twice because the 1st answer is not appropriate? |
| kb9vqf | it's possible |
| kb9vqf | what does it send back? |
| Z_God | let me see... going to look through the function now that prints the received messages |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| Z_God | it seems to return the window id |
| Z_God | and it goes again through the marshalling function that I had to change |
| Z_God | maybe this change is not suitable for all UINT32s |
| *** samelian has quit IRC |
| *** aalecs has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Z_God | kb9vqf: do you know anything about window ids? could 69206019 be a normal window id? |
| *** aalecs has quit IRC |
| *** joeytwiddle has quit IRC |
| kb9vqf | Z_God: Yes |
| kb9vqf | that is likely correct |
| Z_God | ok |
| Z_God | strange |
| Z_God | I guess this uint stuff was changed due to a newer compiler or smth then |
| *** joeytwiddle has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Z_God | but it seems I'm not getting all dcop messages in my log, because there is no windowId() at all in there |
| Z_God | yes, the log is very incomplete, I'm getting more info now by printing all the data being received |
| Z_God | the message that kmozilla sends when it is already unregistered is queryExtension(TQCString) |
| Z_God | I see the window id passing correctly twice to konqueror |
| Z_God | and then show() is not returning anything |
| Z_God | I wonder what a program is supposed to answer when dcop function doesn't have a defined return type |

| *** MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Fat-Zer | kb9vqf: sorry was afk... |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf:... |
| kb9vqf | ugh |
| kb9vqf | I'm popular :) |
| MutantTurkey | :P |
| Fat-Zer | the problem: every time when I compile something from kdebase it's also compiles 3 executabeles: kdmtsak, tsak and krootbacking |
| kb9vqf | ah, even if they have already been compiled? |
| Fat-Zer | so if' i'm trying to build only eg. libkonq compiles also those... |
| kb9vqf | hmm |
| kb9vqf | maybe Serghei would know better what is going on that I would |
| kb9vqf | I am still relatively new to CMake |
| MutantTurkey | what is the problem? |
| MutantTurkey | I am adequate at cmake |
| Fat-Zer | CMakeList.txt in kdebase... |
| Fat-Zer | tsak and krootbacking modules are compiled independ to build flags |
| MutantTurkey | ok I will look |
| MutantTurkey | is there a conditional to build it? |
| Fat-Zer | no, that's im talking about |
| Fat-Zer | a minute... i've got a patch |
| MutantTurkey | Fat-Zer: hold up, where ar ethe source files for tsak? |
| MutantTurkey | what folder? |
| Fat-Zer | tsak )) |
| MutantTurkey | on the git right? |
| *** msb__ has quit IRC |
| Fat-Zer | no... svn |
| MutantTurkey | oh okay |
| MutantTurkey | under kdebase? |
| Fat-Zer | git is still emptyisn't it? |
| Fat-Zer | http://websvn.kde.org/branches/trinity/kdebase/ |
| MutantTurkey | nope. just has differnet stuff |
| MutantTurkey | ah, forgot to pull in latest changes xD |
| Fat-Zer | only qt... |
| *** msb__ has joined #trinity-desktop |
| MutantTurkey | Fat-Zer: and some other stuff |
| MutantTurkey | tqtinterface, qt3, and all the packaging materials |
| Fat-Zer | kdmtsac binary in kdm folder also builds unconditionaly |
| Fat-Zer | oh... that wasn,t a question)) |
| MutantTurkey | okay sorry, I have to run svn cleanup (might take a while) |
| Fat-Zer | here is that i'm projecting: http://paste.pocoo.org/show/479537/ |
| MutantTurkey | something is weird happening with my svn tree, regardless |
| MutantTurkey | looks goot to me. but it should be BUILD_TSAK not BUILD_TSAC |
| MutantTurkey | also you need to keep the spacing all identical and so forth |
| MutantTurkey | you know, coding rules :) |
| Fat-Zer | yeap... a typo =) |
| MutantTurkey | yessir :D |
| MutantTurkey | typos are important for quality control |
| MutantTurkey | believe me, I spent like a month porting kdegraphics to cmake... I am very sloppy so I spent half the time fixing error |
| MutantTurkey | wonder how lon gsvn has been messed up for... seems alot has changed. |
| Fat-Zer | and what's wrong with spacing? |
| MutantTurkey | just keep it intact :) |
| MutantTurkey | make sure it follows the regular pattern |
| MutantTurkey | and did you check to see the patch worked? |
| Fat-Zer | yes... it worked.. |
| MutantTurkey | send it in! |
| Fat-Zer | great=) |
| Fat-Zer | and one more...why kdmtsac binary is located under kdmlib? maybe it's better to move it to kdm? |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: ^ |
| kb9vqf | because it is sort of a library |
| kb9vqf | well, it's used by kdm anyway |
| kb9vqf | and kdesktop_lock |
| kb9vqf | so I was a bit hesitant to have it shut off if kdm is not compiled |
| Fat-Zer | and kdesktop_lock is a part of kdm package? |
| Fat-Zer | i'm just not really sure what condition should be for it build... |
| Fat-Zer | kb9vqf: ? |
| *** Fat-Zer has quit IRC |
| *** Fat-Zer has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Fat-Zer | yes.... here is really quiet... |
| Fat-Zer | kb9vqf: ? |
| MutantTurkey | Fat-Zer: did you send that patch? |
| Fat-Zer | sorry, where to send? |
| MutantTurkey | the dev ML |
| Fat-Zer | i sended it a couple of days ago... |
| Fat-Zer | [cmake][kdbase] necessity of add_subdirectory thread |
| MutantTurkey | oh |
| Fat-Zer | but it's with bad "build_tsaC"... fix and send again? |
| MutantTurkey | should be |
| MutantTurkey | BUILD_TSAK |
| MutantTurkey | yes |
| Fat-Zer | MutantTurkey: i'm still not really sure about condition for kdmtsak... i'll add a FIXME there |
| Fat-Zer | send |
| MutantTurkey | ... |
| MutantTurkey | saw it |
| Fat-Zer | also i think i can help with cmake porting... |
| Fat-Zer | MutantTurkey: ? |
| MutantTurkey | awesome |
| MutantTurkey | that's sweet |
| MutantTurkey | there are some coding guidelines and such |
| MutantTurkey | but follow by example |
| MutantTurkey | but hey, anything specific you want to port? |
| Fat-Zer | i don't know what to start with.... may be kdeutils... |
| Fat-Zer | but I'll just finish ebuilds at least for kdebase first... |
| MutantTurkey | finish ebuilds |
| MutantTurkey | more important :) |
| Fat-Zer | and krootbacking should be a part of kscreensaver |
| MutantTurkey | why? |
| Fat-Zer | it's "A program to grab the current TDE desktop backrounds for xscreensaver" |
| Fat-Zer | so i think it's logical... it's no profit from it without kscreensaver... |
| Fat-Zer | *there is no profit |
| Fat-Zer | writed all my thinkes about that to ML |
| MutantTurkey | good |
| MutantTurkey | It's goot to have more eyes looking over the same material |
| MutantTurkey | different things jump out |
| Fat-Zer | MutantTurkey: kdm cannot be compiled without pan support. right? |
| MutantTurkey | is there an option to? |
| MutantTurkey | If not I assume some |
| MutantTurkey | and doy ou mean PAM? |
| Fat-Zer | yes, pam... |
| Fat-Zer | an option is in the main CMakeList.txt |
| MutantTurkey | not required i don't think |
| MutantTurkey | WITH_PAM i think is the variable |
| Fat-Zer | i'm embarrassed by this: |
| Fat-Zer | 16 if( NOT DEFINED KDM_PAM_SERVICE ) |
| Fat-Zer | 17 set( KDM_PAM_SERVICE "kde" CACHE INTERNAL "" ) |
| Fat-Zer | 18 endif( ) |
| Fat-Zer | in kdm's root... |
| kb9vqf | Fat-Zer: It was originally intended for kscreensaver, but I got to thinking that any 3rd party app that wants to use the desktop background might as well have access to the generated file |
| Fat-Zer | what generated file? |
| Fat-Zer | kb9vqf: you mean some security issues? |
| MutantTurkey | goin to bed |
| kb9vqf | Fat-Zer: No, not really |
| MutantTurkey | night doodes |
| kb9vqf | krootbacking generates a png file of the current desktop background |
| kb9vqf | that's it |
| kb9vqf | and other apps might want to use it |
| kb9vqf | I don't care too much one way or another |
| Fat-Zer | oh... ok... understand this. |
| Fat-Zer | tsac in separate folder on the same reason? |
| kb9vqf | yes, as tsak is a systemwide daemon process |
| kb9vqf | that one has to stay in kdebase though |
| kb9vqf | as kdm, kdesktop_lock, and kdesktop rely on it |
| kb9vqf | (they will fall back to the original KDE3.5 less secure login mode if it is not installed and running) |
| Fat-Zer | is there any tsac-related code in kdm or somethere else, that can turned off by defines? |
| kb9vqf | no, it will auto-detect that tsac is not available and running |
| kb9vqf | at runtime |
| kb9vqf | but I strongly recommend that tsac be available unless there is a very good reason that it not be |
| kb9vqf | not having the SAK available means that login screen spoofing is a very real possibility |
| kb9vqf | (i.e. KDE3.5.10 was vulnerable to login screen spoofing) |
| Fat-Zer | will you here for 1-2 hours? |

| Fat-Zer | can't run tsak... |
| kb9vqf | what does it do? |

| kb9vqf | hmmm |
| kb9vqf | I haven't tried PS/2 keyboards myself |
| kb9vqf | I know it works for USB keyboards |
| kb9vqf | Trinity does fall back to the non-SAK based authentication dialogs, correct? |
| Fat-Zer | yes, correct... |
| Fat-Zer | but there is no such folder (/dev/misc/) |
| Fat-Zer | either on normal system |
| kb9vqf | Do you have the uinput module installed in your kernel? |
| kb9vqf | oh wait...it isn't called uinput.... |
| kb9vqf | hmm, yes it is :-P |
| * kb9vqf is working on other things at the same time here |
| kb9vqf | Where is your /dev/uinput device node equivalent? |
| kb9vqf | tsak tries both /dev/uinput and /dev/misc/uinput |
| kb9vqf | Fat-Zer: Is your /dev/uinput actually under /dev/input/uinput? |
| Fat-Zer | yes... |
| Fat-Zer | INPUT_UINPUT=n |

| Fat-Zer | thanks... i've wached for EVDEV option only... |
| kb9vqf | Fat-Zer: Was the error message unclear? |
| kb9vqf | I'll change it :) |
| Fat-Zer | it's better to add name of option(INPUT_UINPUT) |
| Fat-Zer | i think... |
| kb9vqf | Fat-Zer: what is the exact name of the EVDEV option |
| kb9vqf | ? |
| kb9vqf | Ah, never mind: INPUT_EVDEV |

| Fat-Zer | can you reproduce this? |

| kb9vqf | Fat-Zer: Looks like the problem MAY lie in the Qt PNG libraries or lower level interface |

| Fat-Zer | kb9vqf: there? |
| Fat-Zer | found there the problem with kdm... |
| Fat-Zer | it fails to load jpeg becouse qt compiles over headers in it's include directory... |
| Fat-Zer | i looked it through (qt includes) and it's full of garbage |
| Fat-Zer | also seems there is a problem in qt code... |
| Fat-Zer | 206 jpeg_create_decompress(&cinfo); |
| Fat-Zer | 207 |
| Fat-Zer | 208 cinfo.src = iod_src; |
| Fat-Zer | 209 |
| Fat-Zer | 210 cinfo.err = jpeg_std_error(&jerr); |
| Fat-Zer | 211 jerr.error_exit = my_error_exit; |
| Fat-Zer | * kernel/qjpegio.cpp |
| Fat-Zer | seems jpeg_create_decompress should be the last in this listing... |
| Fat-Zer | in this case if JPEG_LIB_VERSION will be changed it won't crash and will display error message... |
| Fat-Zer | i'll check if it's so. |

| MutantTurkey | so does that mean we get to drop it? |
| MutantTurkey | though maybe not |
| l0ner | what license they changed it to? |

| MutantTurkey | they are changing it |

| l0ner | and everything dependes on which license they will change current to |
| MutantTurkey | well I stinking hate oracle anyway. |

| MutantTurkey | they keep making bad decisions that I don't get. |
| MutantTurkey | Like libreOffice... If they only would have helped them out, donated the name, join in as a collaborter... it would have been great |
| l0ner | well, they have theirs business model which they keep |
| MutantTurkey | a corporation doesn't always have the best model to deal with open source |
| MutantTurkey | they hate it because there is no one to blame except for people who contribute for free, so they can't make demands |
| l0ner | and they are not fit in the open software movement |
| l0ner | yes, its like that |
| l0ner | and they have other reasons not to like open source software, but it's all politics which i don't want to even think about |

| MobileTurkey | hi |
| MobileTurkey | I am home :) but a bit late on the answer |
| MobileTurkey | Borg^Queen: what distro are you using? |
| MobileTurkey | seems HAL related, and since hal is deprecated, it is possible that your distro has removed it. |
| Borg^Queen | hi sorry |
| Borg^Queen | No hal, coldplug |
| Borg^Queen | it was working fine until a usb drive was pulled without unmounting |
| Borg^Queen | I also had 3 more drive on at the time |
| Borg^Queen | I umounted them and reinstalled the distro after I couldn't resolve it thinking Ihad damaged it |
| Borg^Queen | but it doesn't work |
| Borg^Queen | there's no hardware damage btw |
| Borg^Queen | when I google all I get are kde4 hate articles, they're useless |

| fos | Are the nightly lucid builds currently working? I wanted to test the changes from rev 1255984 (the KDM dialog not appearing), but it doesn't seem to be built yet... |
| kb9vqf | The supercomputer that the nightly builds run on is currently allocated to another task |
| kb9vqf | Nightly builds should resume in the next couple of days |
| kb9vqf | remember that time on the build computer is donated to the project when it would otherwise be idle ;-) |
| fos | ah, thanks! |
| kb9vqf | np |
| fos | another question: kdelibs/kdeprint/kmvirtualmanager.cpp +182 points to the wrong file |
| fos | /.cups/.lpoptions should be /.cups/lpoptions instead |
| kb9vqf | looks like a simple oversight |
| fos | line 308 points to the correct file ;-) |
| kb9vqf | I can fix that real quick |
| fos | should I open a bug report for this? |
| kb9vqf | no, I'll fix it now |
| fos | thx! |
| kb9vqf | fos: Fixed in SVN revision 1256361, thanks for letting me know... |
| fos | np, it was quite annoying not to be able to use a default printer, so I'm glad it's fixed ;-) |
| fos | another thing in my patch list: in kdebase/kioslave/media/mediamanager/halbackend.cpp settings in mediamanagerrc are specific for a single device |
| fos | are there any reasons against adding a [Global] group, containing settings for all devices? |
| kb9vqf | No, it just wasn't implemented |
| kb9vqf | Patches are welcome :) |
| fos | does it have to contain a GUI? ;-) |
| kb9vqf | No, not at this point |
| kb9vqf | Once the backend is in place someone can add the GUI later |
| fos | ok, I think I'll create a patch then ;-) |
| kb9vqf | This was done all throughout KDE develpoment |
| kb9vqf | OK |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| *** MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: well I have installed ubuntu, it is quite absymal. time to install trinity! :D |
| kb9vqf | hehe |
| kb9vqf | Linux these days is quite abysmal, isn't it? :-P |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: seriously terrible. |
| MutantTurkey | nope arch is awesome |
| kb9vqf | arch isn't useing the latest software |
| MutantTurkey | it didn't add me to the sudoers file, or give me the root password to set. how am I supposed to update? |
| kb9vqf | *using |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: ...... |
| MutantTurkey | it is |
| MutantTurkey | ubuntu isn't |
| kb9vqf | oh |
| MutantTurkey | ubuntu is still on 2.6 kernel :) |
| kb9vqf | ah, ok |
| * kb9vqf runs kernels from the mainline |
| MutantTurkey | yeah, arch is sometimes a little to gung ho about updating and we get some problems |
| kb9vqf | 3.0.4 here :0 |
| MutantTurkey | but ususally nothing more than a quick downgrade |
| kb9vqf | it should have added you to the sudoers file |
| kb9vqf | you should be able to "sudo passwd" |
| kb9vqf | I thought even the latest versions of Unity/Gnome and KDE4 were quite bad.... |
| MutantTurkey | nope... |
| MutantTurkey | i had to drop to fallback shell and modify it |
| MutantTurkey | I can't imagine a basic user having to deal wit hthat |
| kb9vqf | ugh |
| kb9vqf | that's why I make the Trinity LiveCDs |
| kb9vqf | but it is a lot of effort...I have not yet been able to automate that process |
| MutantTurkey | yeah. |
| MutantTurkey | I could make Trinity/Arch CD's |
| MutantTurkey | we have a nice framework for automating cd builds |
| kb9vqf | that would be cool |
| MutantTurkey | anyway now I need to get rid of ubuntu hell and add trinity |
| kb9vqf | check the mailing list |
| kb9vqf | I can get you the link I suppose |
| MutantTurkey | isn't it just in the website? |
| kb9vqf | http://trinity-users.pearsoncomputing.net/?0::1368 |
| kb9vqf | You probably want to use the nightly builds |
| kb9vqf | and not the archaic packages from 3.5.12 |
| kb9vqf | BTW I strongly recommend you use the 3.0.4 kernel from the mainline PPA |
| kb9vqf | It is so wonderful compared to the default kernel ;-) |
| kb9vqf | so stable.... |
| MutantTurkey | of course I use it... |
| MutantTurkey | wait what is the PPA? |
| MutantTurkey | I mean on arcvh at least. I am finding it to work well, though not all the power regressions are fixed :[ |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: so how do I use the daily builds? |
| kb9vqf | see the link I poseted above |
| kb9vqf | *posted |
| kb9vqf | and here's the kernel PPA (personal package archive): http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.0.4-oneiric/ |
| MutantTurkey | okay thanks |
| MutantTurkey | http://trinity-users.pearsoncomputing.net/?0::1368 |
| MutantTurkey | that seems to just be a link to the ttf message |
| kb9vqf | uhhh...no |
| kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Scroll down |
| kb9vqf | you will see some long text lines |
| kb9vqf | follow the instructions that wrap those lines of text ;-) |
| kb9vqf | also make sure you have copied the entire URL |
| MutantTurkey | my internet is being funky, oh okay got it! |
| MutantTurkey | awesome |
| *** K`zan has joined #trinity-desktop |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: something about pubke |
| kb9vqf | ignore it |
| MutantTurkey | signatures couldn't be verified... |
| MutantTurkey | okay cool |
| kb9vqf | known issue on the nightlies |
| MutantTurkey | its funny because arch is just getting signed packages |
| MutantTurkey | in the last year |
| kb9vqf | :eek: |
| MutantTurkey | but I don't see it as a big issue |
| kb9vqf | It is actually |
| MutantTurkey | I know thats what they say |
| kb9vqf | it would be very easy to hack a mirror and inject virus-ridden packages |
| MutantTurkey | I only use mirrors I trust though |
| kb9vqf | the project maintainer probably wouldn't even know |
| MutantTurkey | anyway, It's all theoretical because it's never happened |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | but with kernel.org hacked... |
| * kb9vqf runs scared |
| MutantTurkey | I know |
| kb9vqf | anyway the main release uses correct signatures |
| MutantTurkey | good |
| kb9vqf | the problem is only with the nightlies |
| MutantTurkey | I am not a big netsec person at all |
| kb9vqf | ah |
| kb9vqf | I have to be given the equipment in use here |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| kb9vqf | and security is a bit of a hobby... |
| kb9vqf | (for me that is) |
| kb9vqf | I was laughing the other day when it was revealed the Sony hacks used SQL injection |
| kb9vqf | seiously?? |
| kb9vqf | on a big global system like that? |
| kb9vqf | :)) |
| MutantTurkey | yeah |
| MutantTurkey | thats embarassing |
| kb9vqf | no kidding |
| MutantTurkey | but thats all these "hackers" can do |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| MutantTurkey | they just sql inject and pretend they are amazing |
| kb9vqf | i mean with PHP there is no excuse for that |
| MutantTurkey | therefore I run NO sql db's and load static files. |
| kb9vqf | it's like leaving buffer overflow vulnerable code in place in modern apps |
| kb9vqf | this is 2011, not 1990 |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| MutantTurkey | yeah which is also embarassing (adobe flash) |
| kb9vqf | grrr |
| kb9vqf | I'm just waiting for the world's first GPU virus to come out of that |
| kb9vqf | actually that would be pretty scary |
| MutantTurkey | yeah seriously. |
| kb9vqf | the GPU can poke memory just like the CPU can |
| kb9vqf | :eek: |
| * MutantTurkey hides |
| MutantTurkey | who mirrors all of this? |
| kb9vqf | If that happens we will need separate main computers and terminals again :) |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: which is the way we are going anyways... |
| MutantTurkey | back to the cloud |
| kb9vqf | University of Idaho, and an IT professional in Eurpoe |
| kb9vqf | *Europe |
| kb9vqf | There is a third mirror but it is offline ATM |
| kb9vqf | ah, but the cloud is all about some third party holding your data hostage while you pony up lots of $$$$ |
| kb9vqf | no thanks |
| kb9vqf | *private* clouds I could get into |
| kb9vqf | where the infrastructure is hosted on private equipment with open source software |
| kb9vqf | i.e. fully owned by the user |
| kb9vqf | anyway, back on topic... :) |
| *** MutantTurkey has quit IRC |
| fos | another question: would should be done with translations of new strings? |
| fos | We have translated a few of them (i.e. those that our users usually see ;-)) to German and generated new .po files... |
| kb9vqf | upload the new .po files to a bug report |
| kb9vqf | I will merge them into the existing translations in SVN |
| kb9vqf | I think the .po file is sufficient; if not I will request another file in the bug report :) |
| fos | ok :-) |

| MobileTurkey | amarok can't do music over fish:// darn |
| MobileTurkey | kb9vqf: bluetooth is broken too also? |
| MobileTurkey | everything else is working well |
| kb9vqf | bluetooth is broken, yes |
| kb9vqf | you can blame libbluez |
| kb9vqf | and the fact that I have no bluetooth hardware :-P |
| kb9vqf | they changed the API |
| MobileTurkey | I have bluetooth hardware |
| MobileTurkey | now |
| kb9vqf | ah |
| kb9vqf | well feel free to port the existing bluetooth service to the new libbluez API... |
| kb9vqf | it will have to be reenabled in CMakeLists.txt or Makefile.am for building |
| MobileTurkey | I will look at the API changes |
| MobileTurkey | I am mostly unfamiliar with Bluetooth ( only have it now on my laptop and phone) |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| MobileTurkey | but I could poke around |
| MobileTurkey | what functionality did it previously offer? |
| kb9vqf | I think file browsing |
| kb9vqf | not sure |
| kb9vqf | it has been broken for a few years now |
| MobileTurkey | okay |
| MobileTurkey | and is Power managerment broken? |
| kb9vqf | no |
| kb9vqf | it works fine, but needs HAL |
| MobileTurkey | can I do that with ubuntu? |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| MobileTurkey | cool |
| kb9vqf | apt-get install hal-trinity |
| MobileTurkey | I might just have to switch over to debian tbh |
| MobileTurkey | ubuntu is terrible... |
| MobileTurkey | kb9vqf: is there some sort of trinity-extras package as well? |
| kb9vqf | you can use Debian, that's fine |
| kb9vqf | and no I dont' have a package like that |
| MobileTurkey | kb9vqf: okay just wondering |
| kb9vqf | Remember the project is based in the United States |
| kb9vqf | so I have to be extra careful :) |
| MobileTurkey | oh no not like the "extras" from ubuntu |
| MobileTurkey | like this: intsall package "gnome:" would give me the basic desktop "gnome-extras" would give me all the other little apps and programs that gnome project has |
| kb9vqf | oh |
| kb9vqf | yes :) |
| kb9vqf | kubuntu-default-settings-trinity |
| kb9vqf | IIRC |
| kb9vqf | or it might be something else... |
| kb9vqf | do a search in Synaptic for kubuntu and trinity |

| schreiberstein | Hello! |
| MobileTurkey | hey schreiberstein |
| MobileTurkey | how goes it |
| schreiberstein | I'm fine! And you? |
| MobileTurkey | I am well. What brings you here? |
| schreiberstein | I just read that there is a trinity irc channel. Os i was just checking if it exists :-D |
| schreiberstein | And, of course, I'm using trinity |
| MobileTurkey | And, of course, we do exist! |
| MobileTurkey | :) |
| schreiberstein | :-D |
| schreiberstein | That'S great! |
| MobileTurkey | schreiberstein: How long have you been using trinity? |
| schreiberstein | round about 1 month. |
| schreiberstein | On my homeserver |
| schreiberstein | It's really cool |
| MobileTurkey | thanks! |
| MobileTurkey | are you finding it useful? |
| schreiberstein | yep. |
| schreiberstein | it'S the best desktop environment |
| schreiberstein | and everything worked out of the box. |
| MobileTurkey | :) indeed it is. |
| MobileTurkey | sweet. what distrobution are you running it on? |
| schreiberstein | Ubuntu 10.04 |
| schreiberstein | It's a pain on arch linux.. |
| schreiberstein | Buggy on arch. |
| MobileTurkey | schreiberstein: I know :) I am actually the guy who is working on it... |
| MobileTurkey | so that's a slap in the face, well deserved. |
| schreiberstein | no! |
| schreiberstein | no worries! |
| MobileTurkey | I've been trying to pull together packages but you know, arch is rather, bleeding edge |
| schreiberstein | yep. |
| MobileTurkey | schreiberstein: I am a big arch lover though. |
| schreiberstein | arch sucks sometimes. |
| MobileTurkey | i would just like to have the best environment (trinity) on the best distro (arch) |
| MobileTurkey | :D |
| schreiberstein | well... arch isn'T the best distro.. well.. i love pacman + all the great arch stuff... |
| schreiberstein | but there is no good desktop environment available atm. |
| schreiberstein | gnome 2 -> trashed ; kde3 -> trashed (official) |
| schreiberstein | and lots of thing didn'T work... automount... etc.. |
| schreiberstein | that's annoying... |
| schreiberstein | so... i'm using ubuntu :-) |
| schreiberstein | trinity works great on it.. and it'S super stable |
| MobileTurkey | I agree with you thatmost of the large DEs are stinky |
| schreiberstein | MobileTurkey: What OS are you using? |
| schreiberstein | *do you use |
| MobileTurkey | schreiberstein: I use archlinux |
| MobileTurkey | for trinity development/testing I am using Ubuntu |
| MobileTurkey | in fact I am just getting it setup on my new laptop and am not really liking it to much |
| MobileTurkey | Ubuntu is a bit of a pain with apt-get |
| schreiberstein | yep.. pacman is much faster + simpler |
| MobileTurkey | oh totally |
| MobileTurkey | and ubuntu is just getting less and less linuxy by the release |
| MobileTurkey | the new unity interface feels like a crappy mac ripoff |
| schreiberstein | MobileTurkey: I can't start trinity SVN on arch x86_64. It stucks at ksplash |
| kb9vqf | What we need is Debian with more up to date packages...hmmm....like Ubuntu originally was :- |
| kb9vqf | :-P |
| MobileTurkey | schreiberstein: wait do you have packages? |
| MobileTurkey | kb9vqf: yep |
| MobileTurkey | or are you just doing manual compilation |
| MobileTurkey | kb9vqf: yep yep yep yep. I remember ubuntu 7.10 and I was thinking "wow this is awesome!" |
| schreiberstein | MobileTurkey: No.. I'm using the repo : https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Trinity#Binary_Packages_-_From_Trinity_SVN_Code |
| MobileTurkey | ... |
| MobileTurkey | Oh crap |
| MobileTurkey | I forgot that David Rankin made a wiki page |
| MobileTurkey | schreiberstein: yes, those won't work anymore, Inface they haven't been updated since about march, when david sort of dropped off the radar |
| schreiberstein | So i used the kdemod3 rebuild of elvaka... |
| MobileTurkey | elvaka? |
| MobileTurkey | kdemod is dead though yes? |
| schreiberstein | https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=97612 |
| MobileTurkey | I cannot find my glasses, they have been missing a few weeks. |
| MobileTurkey | I am practically blind :| |
| schreiberstein | He rebuilt kdemod3 with trinity sources. |
| MobileTurkey | is it updated? |
| schreiberstein | oh dear! |
| schreiberstein | i guess yes. |
| * kb9vqf reminds everyone to keep bad language off the channel! |
| schreiberstein | kb9vqf: Who said something bad? |
| kb9vqf | MutantTurkey |
| kb9vqf | He's been using bad words for some time now :-P |
| kb9vqf | not you :) |
| schreiberstein | kb9vqf: BTW. Thank you for repairing the ttf-bitstream-vera problem :-) |
| kb9vqf | np |
| kb9vqf | glad to get these "minor" fixes into SVN--it will improve the quality of the finished product immensely |
| kb9vqf | *they will |
| MobileTurkey | definitely |
| schreiberstein | kb9vqf: I'm from germany and i see a lot of english sentences in trinity. Can I help with translating? I'm not a programmer atm. |
| MobileTurkey | I've got Rosh Hashanah dinner at my girlfriends. round 2 |
| MobileTurkey | i'll be back late |
| kb9vqf | schreiberstein: You should be able to open the .po files from the i18n folder in SVN with KBabel |
| kb9vqf | Translate the strings and attach the fixed .po file to a new bug report |
| kb9vqf | fos may be able to help you out |
| kb9vqf | if you ask nicely :) |
| schreiberstein | .. of course :-D |
| schreiberstein | ..that sounds easy... i'll do that :-) |
| fos | I'm currently merging the translation of kdesktop.po, kicker.po and kio_media.po |
| fos | but I'd be glad to have someone to discuss the translation ;-) |
| fos | (especially as I haven't found some of the strings in the GUI and have no idea about their context ;-)) |

| KingSphinx | Question about the nightly repos... does the entire DE get updated every day or is it bits and pieces? |
| kb9vqf | only that which has changed in SVN since the last build |
| kb9vqf | i.e. if only kdebase received commits only kdebase would be rebuilt |
| kb9vqf | also, right now the build farm is being used for other tasks (it is on loan from a business who has donated the idle time to the Trinity project) |
| kb9vqf | so nightly builds are not-so-nightly ATM |
| KingSphinx | lol |
| kb9vqf | ? |
| KingSphinx | If I feel brave enough, I'll try nightlies, but right now I still feel like waiting for 3.5.13 to officially release. |
| kb9vqf | ah |
| kb9vqf | well, 3.5.13 won't release until a) we get more people testing the nightlies, which should be considered beta versions, and b) there are more bugs fixed on the bugtracker |
| KingSphinx | And by the way, I've ditched KDE 4 again... kinda hard to really call a desktop usable when doing something like exiting Kopete causes the whole desktop to crash. >_>; |
| kb9vqf | hehe |
| kb9vqf | I'm not surprised |
| kb9vqf | the underlying architecture in KDE4 is seriously flawed |
| KingSphinx | So it's back to GNOME/Unity for me for now. |
| kb9vqf | all plasma "apps" share the same Linux process AFAIK |
| kb9vqf | so if one goes down the whole desktop goes down |
| KingSphinx | Well, that's kinda dumb. |
| KingSphinx | At least split it up into "core" Plasma stuff and then "the rest" (for lack of a better term) |
| kb9vqf | yeah, but still |
| kb9vqf | dumb dumb dumb |
| kb9vqf | not only that, it has to be a security nightmare |
| kb9vqf | what prevents one app from poking the memory of another one? |
| kb9vqf | and stealing login credentials, putting up spam social network posts, etc. |
| kb9vqf | I dunno |
| kb9vqf | looks like 0 thought went into that design decision |
| kb9vqf | more of an "it just evolved that way" kind of thing :-P |
| KingSphinx | Hence the benefits of making "fancy" stuff separate processes. I mean, SuperKaramba didn't even come with 3.x, you had to install it yourself IIRC. |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| kb9vqf | and it was NEVER an integral part of the desktop |
| kb9vqf | the desktop must be as secure as possible |
| kb9vqf | adding plasma makes it inherently insecure |
| kb9vqf | so...I can't use KDE4 in my business for security reasons alone :-P |
| kb9vqf | let alone the lost productivity, etc. |
| kb9vqf | oh well |
| kb9vqf | this is why Trinity is available |
| kb9vqf | I do wish KDE4 had cleaned up their act with 4.0 though |
| KingSphinx | Speaking of which (SuperKaramba and the like), I couldn't for the life of me remember how to do stuff like install Compiz in Trinity. I remember doing it once, but it somehow borked my graphics driver and I was forced to migrate to Fedora for a while. |
| kb9vqf | ahh |
| kb9vqf | well, I recommend installing fusion-icon |
| kb9vqf | that should pull in compiz and give you a tool to enable compiz |
| kb9vqf | fusion-icon-trinity actually |
| KingSphinx | Noted for future referen- wait, fusion-icon's already installed. Well, that's one step out of the way, at least. |
| kb9vqf | BTW Trinity has its own built-in and highly integrated compositor in the latest nightly builds :) |
| kb9vqf | it doesn't do nearly as much eye candy as Compiz, but it does enable ARGB mode and you can run window fades and other basic stuff |
| KingSphinx | You got Trinity to do its own compositing now? |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | and it's so much easier to set up than Compiz :-P |
| kb9vqf | (it doesn't do nearly as much, but hey, it just works :)) |
| KingSphinx | sshh, don't let Apple hear you say "it just works" :P |
| kb9vqf | it works out of the box? |
| kb9vqf | actually it needs more testing (hint hint) |
| kb9vqf | Intel and nVidia seem to work pretty well |
| kb9vqf | as well as ATI |
| kb9vqf | I think there are only a couple of minor glitches left |

| schreiberstein | fos: No. But i downloaded them and viewed them with kbabel. |
| schreiberstein | I'm working at my LFS + setting up my homeserver --> Not much time |
| fos | no problem, I'm just interested because I don't get the packages to compile any more... |
| schreiberstein | i never built packages on ubuntu. seems to be really complicated. i'm working with arch linux' pacman pkgmanager |

| Space_Man | thanks |
| kb9vqf | np |
| Space_Man | adept sat still for about 30 minutes claiming it was 'preparing' |
| kb9vqf | huh |
| kb9vqf | well, it is alarge upgrade... |
| Space_Man | when I pressed show details there was a screen asking for my choice :P |
| kb9vqf | ah, ok |
| Space_Man | 192 packages, 261MB |
| kb9vqf | well, Adept is not the best application unfortunately |
| kb9vqf | the guy who designed it needed to think more about the user interface :-P |
| * Space_Man likes the user interface |
| Space_Man | it is nice and simple |

| kb9vqf | well, it's the little things |
| kb9vqf | like the problem you mentioned above |
| kb9vqf | that and the fact that it pops up an error if any package fails to install |

| KingSphinx | I honestly can't believe it's almost time for Onieric... hard to believe it's been a year since TDE's had a major (public) upgrade. |
| KingSphinx | I know, I know, testers/feedback/devs, but I'd just thought I'd note it. |
| kb9vqf | I know, I know :-P |
| kb9vqf | Right now its BUGS |
| kb9vqf | we can't seem to get anyone here to focus on repairing the bugs on the bugtracker |
| kb9vqf | I guess the worst case is that we release 3.5.12 as-is, then force a 3.5.13 and 3.5.14 instead of 3.5.13 and 3.6.0 |
| kb9vqf | i.e. insert a bugfix release into the release schedule |
| kb9vqf | Xu_R|Tired, MutantTurkey: Any chance of fixing some bugs or are we going to have to do this? ^^^^^^^ |
| Xu_R|Tired | I'm sorry, I've been dead literally all month DX |
| Xu_R|Tired | i've even thrown notepad++ on the school comp so that I can work on packaging during free periods :( sorry |
| KingSphinx | I don't do programming, but Notepad++ is the best text editor for Windows, hands-down. |
| KingSphinx | Also, as-is? You mean release an 11.10 variant with the ol' 3.5.12? |
| *** cpatrick008 has joined #trinity-desktop |

| *** cpatrick008 has quit IRC |
| *** KingSphinx has quit IRC |
| kb9vqf | no, as-is means the current state of the code in SVN |
| kb9vqf | we can't build 3.5.12 for anything higher than Maverick |
| Z_God | 3.5.12 for maverick runs fine on natty at least |
| Z_God | you only need to add the universe or updates or smth repos from maverick to satisfy all the dependencies, but then it will just install and work |
| Z_God | I hope to look at kmozilla again this weekend btw, I moved countries and started at uni there so I was a bit busy last week |

| Z_God | kb9vqf: I can imagine you don't know anything about GTK, but still maybe you can give a hint again :) |
| kb9vqf | possibly...I did work with gtk before... |
| Z_God | I found that the problem I now have is that the function called at lin 150 in this file: http://websvn.kde.org/branches/trinity/kdebindings/xparts/src/gtk/gtkpart.c?view=markup |
| Z_God | hangs |
| Z_God | line* |
| Z_God | it's probably a callback that's failing |
| Z_God | unfortunately there is not much documentation on mozilla's gtkembed stuff |
| kb9vqf | attach to the stuck process with gdb |
| kb9vqf | then press ctrl+c |
| kb9vqf | and type bt |
| kb9vqf | that will tell you exactly where it is stuck and why |
| Z_God | hmm, I wonder if that's possible... |
| kb9vqf | well...maybe not why...but where for sure :) |
| Z_God | things seems to get killed because of this hang |
| kb9vqf | yes, just run ps aux and find your stuck process |
| kb9vqf | oh |
| kb9vqf | you could theoretically send SIGSTOP to the process before it is killed |
| kb9vqf | I assume it takes a second or so to kill? |
| Z_God | less I'd say ... |
| kb9vqf | if so you might be able to pipe the pid of the process to the kill program |
| Z_God | everything runs quite fast |
| Z_God | ;) |
| kb9vqf | e.g. with kill SIGSTOP `ps aux | grep mozblah | awk 'print something'` |
| kb9vqf | you would have to fill in the blahs and the sigstop signal number ;-) |
| Z_God | maybe I could put a debug break before that call? |
| kb9vqf | you can force a process to send SIGSTOP to itself |
| Z_God | and then step through? |
| kb9vqf | I have used that trick many times :) |
| Z_God | ok? |
| kb9vqf | it works very well |
| kb9vqf | you then just look for the stopped process (state T IIRC) |
| kb9vqf | and attach with gdb |
| Z_God | I think this code is part of the kmozilla binary that is built in the end |
| Z_God | ah no |
| Z_God | it's the lib |
| Z_God | libgtkxparts |
| kb9vqf | here's the code: raise(SIGSTOP); |
| kb9vqf | if you send that signal then the parent process will stop |
| kb9vqf | and you can still debug it |
| kb9vqf | remember that methods in libraries are executed just the same as regular programs ;-) |
| kb9vqf | and if you raise SIGSTOP the program that uses the library will stop and wait for you to send SIGCONT |
| kb9vqf | or attach to it with GDB and continue |
| kb9vqf | make sense? |
| Z_God | it's hanging now |
| Z_God | the kmozilla process is still alive :) |
| kb9vqf | a ps aux should reveal that it is in state T |
| kb9vqf | i.e. stopped |
| Z_God | yep :) |
| kb9vqf | great! |
| kb9vqf | now attach with gdb |
| Z_God | done |
| Z_God | had to run gdb as root though |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | that makes sense |
| kb9vqf | there are security restrictions in place by default |
| Z_God | and I'm downloading the xulrunner debug symbols now, so I may have to redo this in a sec |
| kb9vqf | now you should be able to type 'c' and have the program continue to termination, or type 'n' and single step to the next line of code |
| Z_God | ah |
| Z_God | kmozilla segfaults it seems |
| kb9vqf | and now type 'bt' |
| kb9vqf | that will tell you why :) |
| kb9vqf | or rather where the execption happened, and you can probably figure out why pretty easily from the stack trace |
| Z_God | I'm getting a huge stack trace now (with xulrunner symbols now) |
| Z_God | http://pastebin.com/9JEvinZr |
| kb9vqf | Is this your code? |
| kb9vqf | gtkmozembed2.cpp |
| Z_God | no, I think it's mozilla's code |
| kb9vqf | hehe |
| kb9vqf | https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&cd=1&ved=0CBoQFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fbugs.debian.org%2F578109&rct=j&q=gtkmozembed2.cpp%3A490&ei=imuHTsmkAaSosQLyrvW1Dw&usg=AFQjCNEKpSuJU6OKvLJDz-lhJ83Jehsl-g&sig2=LAgqUbbh7z997FHtK4P27w |
| kb9vqf | or rather http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=578109 |
| kb9vqf | ah darn, they removed gtkmozembed in version 5.0 |
| kb9vqf | so this is a dead end |
| Z_God | version 5.0 of what? |
| Z_God | I have xulrunner version 1.9.2 here |
| kb9vqf | firefox I think |
| kb9vqf | Here's something that might help: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=205499#c7 |
| tbottu | 04Bug 205499: was not found. |
| kb9vqf | but either way unless we can get this working and get gtkmozembed back into Firefox this is a dead end |
| kb9vqf | I can't find too much more about gtkmozembed's demise |
| kb9vqf | hmmm |
| Z_God | I guess yep... but I will still try some things |
| Z_God | firefox here is also version 3.6 |
| kb9vqf | well, I say since you are close just make it work |
| kb9vqf | if you can :) |
| kb9vqf | maybe gtkmozembed can be built separately |
| * kb9vqf hates Linux and their constant removal of useful stuff |
| Z_God | I will at least look for the mozilla developer irc channel & ask there |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| Z_God | I also found this: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=531335 |
| tbottu | 04Bug 531335: was not found. |
| Z_God | ah that's in another file |
| Z_God | ah no, I was looking in the wrong file ... |
| Z_God | mNavigation->SetSessionHistory(mSessionHistory); this is the segfaulting line... |
| Z_God | looks innocent enough to me |
| *** K`zan has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Z_God | it seems this compreg file may indeed be related, I'm searching my homedir now for copies of that file |
| Z_God | kb9vqf: it's sort of working !!! |
| kb9vqf | cool! |
| Z_God | kmozilla opens in a separate window |
| Z_God | it's not embedded |
| Z_God | but it actually renders the page I had open in konq |
| kb9vqf | well that could be the Trinity embedding code I suppose |
| Z_God | something changed? |
| kb9vqf | how embedding works is that Trinity has to take the existing window and "stuff" it into the Konqueror window |
| kb9vqf | no, nothing changed |
| kb9vqf | I'm just letting you know where to look next :) |
| Z_God | ah :) |
| Z_God | it actually turned out I had to set another environment variable |
| kb9vqf | so to finish my thought, if for some reason the "stuffing" function is not called, then the window would pop up on its own |
| kb9vqf | instead of being embedded |
| kb9vqf | look for any Xlib BadWindow errors on the console |
| Z_God | (kmozilla:14084): Gtk-WARNING **: gtk_widget_create_pango_context ()) called without screen |
| Z_God | I get that one a few times |
| kb9vqf | don't think that would be it |
| kb9vqf | do the navigation controls work? |
| Z_God | I will disable gtk debugging now |
| kb9vqf | i.e. back, forward, refresh, etc? |
| Z_God | probably not, they didn't work 10 years ago either |
| kb9vqf | ah, ok |
| Z_God | no, there are no errors at all |
| kb9vqf | hmmm |
| kb9vqf | look in the code that gets the window id |
| kb9vqf | somewhere, somehow something has to get the window ID and pass it to the window embedding function |
| kb9vqf | usually the window ID is stored in a variable of type Window |
| kb9vqf | (case sensitive) |
| Z_God | I saw a lot of that code yep |
| kb9vqf | does it use QXEmbed? |
| kb9vqf | actually, can you point me to a WebSVN file and line number? |
| Z_God | one sec, I now have the windowid on the gtk side |
| Z_God | this is passed to the kde kpart using a dcop call |
| kb9vqf | makes sens |
| kb9vqf | then the kde kpart has to actually embed that window ID |
| kb9vqf | that's where QXEmbed might be used |
| kb9vqf | and QXEmbed *might* have changed in the last 10 years ;-) |
| Z_God | I found the code on the kde side, I'll get the svn url now |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| Z_God | http://websvn.kde.org/branches/trinity/kdebindings/xparts/src/kde/xparthost_kpart.cpp?view=markup |
| Z_God | line 47 |
| kb9vqf | can you verify that line 47 is actualyl being called? |
| kb9vqf | e.g. with a prinf() and fflush()? |
| kb9vqf | *printf |
| Z_God | sure, sec |
| Z_God | yes |
| Z_God | it's called |
| kb9vqf | with a valid window ID? |
| kb9vqf | print the window ID in hex and make sure it isn't 0 ir something :) |
| kb9vqf | *or |
| kb9vqf | actually decimal is OK too |
| Z_God | yes |
| Z_God | the ID is correct |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | hmmm |
| Z_God | it's the same as the one that's printed earlier |
| kb9vqf | does anything show up in the Konqueror pane? |
| Z_God | no, it stays empty |
| Z_God | when I click a link |
| Z_God | the status bar gets updated that it's loading that page |
| Z_God | and the URL bar changes |
| Z_God | to the new URL |
| kb9vqf | hmmm |
| kb9vqf | The only thing I can think of off the bat is a protocol problem |
| kb9vqf | Here's the QXEmbed header: http://www.trinitydesktop.org/docs/trinity/current/kdelibs/kdeui/html/qxembed_8h_source.html |
| kb9vqf | not much documentation to go with it I'm afraid |
| kb9vqf | Can you please verify that the popup Mozilla window has the same window ID as is printed from your debug statments? |
| kb9vqf | IIRC there is a utility that can get the window ID of any window you click on |
| kb9vqf | let me find it |
| Z_God | ok, maybe in xutils? |
| kb9vqf | xwininfo |
| kb9vqf | run it on the command line, click on the Mozilla window, and view the results from the command line |
| kb9vqf | note you will need to print the window ID in hex from the kpart ;-) |
| kb9vqf | hence my hex comment earlier |
| kb9vqf | if they are the same (the kpart printf() and the results of xwininfo) then the problem must lie in the QXEmbed interface |
| kb9vqf | but I need to be sure :) |
| Z_God | yep |
| Z_God | they are the same |

| kb9vqf | First, why don't you try this |
| kb9vqf | See what embed->embeddedWinId() returns |
| Z_God | ok |
| kb9vqf | AFTER embed->embed() was called |
| kb9vqf | it should return the same window ID |
| kb9vqf | if not then the embedding failed |
| Z_God | yep, it's 0 |
| kb9vqf | also, the C++ syntax for the protocol switch would be embed->setProtocol(QXEmbed::XEMBED); |
| kb9vqf | and that line has to go BEFORE the embed->embed() call |
| Z_God | I'll try that now |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | leave the other debug statement in ;-) |
| Z_God | it doesn't seem to work |
| Z_God | so now XPLAIN? |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | if that doesn't work...well...I'm out of ideas for now :-P |
| Z_God | same isssue |
| kb9vqf | hmmmm |
| kb9vqf | and embeddedWinId() is still returning 0 I take it? |
| kb9vqf | with no BadWindow errors? |
| Z_God | yep |
| Z_God | hmm |
| Z_God | I see a lot of BadWindow errors in my .xsession-erros |
| Z_God | r |
| kb9vqf | on the very bottom of it? |
| Z_God | I'll tail that one & see if they are from kmozilla |
| Z_God | yep |
| kb9vqf | sounds like they are being logged there |
| kb9vqf | pastebin please? |
| Z_God | seems not :( |
| Z_God | when switching back |
| Z_God | to khtml I do get one |
| Z_God | but not when switching from khtml to kmozilla |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | hmm |
| Z_God | http://pastebin.com/zNadVEfH |
| kb9vqf | try moving the embed->show() command before the embed->embed() command |
| Z_God | and leave the m_stub->show()? |
| kb9vqf | hmm |
| kb9vqf | wait |
| Z_God | just moving the embed doesn't work |
| Z_God | embed->show() I mean |
| Z_God | same issue then |
| kb9vqf | The BadWindow error you posted is an error in X_MapSubwindows |
| kb9vqf | which sounds like it could be related |
| Z_God | :D |
| Z_God | one sec |
| Z_God | I have something to show :) |
| kb9vqf | ok... |
| kb9vqf | Z_God: What? |
| Z_God | http://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-BiSwJPk2dHY/Tod915u2bAI/AAAAAAAAAd8/tLv1yH1YwI0/s640/konqueror_using_gecko2.png |
| kb9vqf | you did that? |
| Z_God | yep, it's working :) |
| kb9vqf | what was the problem? |
| kb9vqf | so I know :) |
| Z_God | m_stub->show(); had to be before the embed->embed |
| kb9vqf | that's what I suspected :) |
| kb9vqf | and the BadWindow error confirmed it |
| kb9vqf | great to hear it's working! |
| Z_God | I will create proper patches against subversion now & mail them to the devel list? |
| kb9vqf | yes, please do :) |
| kb9vqf | then you can work on the back/forward buttons |
| Z_God | I hope you can create packages for these components then |
| Z_God | yes :) |
| kb9vqf | definitely |
| kb9vqf | it should be as simple as throwing a switch in the Makefile and packaging a new .so file |
| kb9vqf | well, maybe adding a configure switch as well, but...for the benefit, definitely worth the effort! |
| Z_God | there are a few more things I guess |
| Z_God | but it should be trivial :) |
| kb9vqf | I would expect so |
| kb9vqf | as long as gtkmozembed continues to be available this is great! |
| kb9vqf | KHTML has ALWAYS been a KDE back eye |
| kb9vqf | *black |
| kb9vqf | and it is still so under KDE4 |
| kb9vqf | so having this available should help Trinity |
| Z_God | yeah, I think having multiple renderers in general is always good |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| kb9vqf | for most people's Google/Facebook usage they will notice the bad rendering far more than the lack of fancy integration with Konqueror |
| kb9vqf | and this way we only need xulrunner installed, not the entire Firefox system |
| kb9vqf | so it saves some space on the LiveCD :) |
| Z_God | ah firefox is on the live cd? |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | because KHTML is....just that bad :-P |
| kb9vqf | at least it's on the Enterprise version |
| kb9vqf | now I don't remember if I crammed it onto the regular version or not |
| Z_God | btw, I also came across this bug |
| Z_God | http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=32463 |
| tbottu | 04Bug 32463: was not found. |
| Z_God | regarding that byte order issue |
| Z_God | it seems it was changed to fix big endian boxes, but they just broke little endian with that |
| Z_God | so maybe it's possible to check for big/little endian at compile time? |
| kb9vqf | yes it is |
| kb9vqf | IIRC there is a GNU C __ define |
| kb9vqf | gcc *should* make __BIG_ENDIAN__ available |
| kb9vqf | and __LITTLE_ENDIAN__ |
| kb9vqf | so #ifdef __BIG_ENDIAN__ |
| kb9vqf | but this should probably also check for the gcc compiler |
| kb9vqf | Even better: |
| kb9vqf | And #include <endian.h> defines __BYTE_ORDER, __LITTLE_ENDIAN, and __BIG_ENDIAN which can be tested at compile time. |
| kb9vqf | and Qt has something as well IIRC |
| * kb9vqf is having fun spamming the channel :-P |
| kb9vqf | Z_God: Here you go, this is probably best: http://www.trinitydesktop.org/docs/qt3/qapplication.html#qSysInfo |
| Z_God | ok :) |
| kb9vqf | if Qt is already in use |
| kb9vqf | if not then use the #defines I mentioned above |
| Z_God | it's not |
| Z_God | that's the whole point of the marshalling I think ;) |
| kb9vqf | ok, use the endian.h #defines then |
| * kb9vqf was never much of a DCOP developer :-P |
| kb9vqf | It's a magic little black box to me :) |
| kb9vqf | I prefer to know the low level internals of Xorg personally |
| Z_God | I know more about dcop now than I ever imagined I'd know :P |
| kb9vqf | hehe |
| kb9vqf | that's great! |
| kb9vqf | now we have someone that can deal with it if it acts up for any reason :) |
| kb9vqf | this kind of diversity is a good thing |
| kb9vqf | means the project is healty |
| kb9vqf | *healthy |
| Z_God | I guess there's no else? |
| Z_God | I mean for the #ifdef |
| kb9vqf | #else |
| kb9vqf | #endif |
| kb9vqf | I have no idea |
| kb9vqf | about needing an else or not |
| Z_God | I will just use both big & little |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| Z_God | it makes things clear as well |
| kb9vqf | and the default case would then be what? |
| Z_God | nothing |
| kb9vqf | i.e. if neither BIG nor LITTLE was defined, then what would happen? |
| kb9vqf | would DCOP break? |
| kb9vqf | or would it work in a default endian-ness? |
| Z_God | it would break with compiling I guess |
| kb9vqf | well, let's be sure |
| Z_God | maybe you want to review my patches or..? ;) |
| kb9vqf | #if (!defined(__LITTLE_ENDIAN) && !defined(__BIG_ENDIAN)) |
| kb9vqf | #error "something" |
| kb9vqf | #endif |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| kb9vqf | and yes, I'll review the patches of course ;-) |
| *** Xu_R has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Z_God | but I have no idea what the default would need to be then |
| kb9vqf | that's why it just throws an error |
| Z_God | because there are only 2 orders I'd say |
| Z_God | ah yeah, makes sense |
| kb9vqf | better to have an error than obscure behaviour |
| kb9vqf | especially in something as esoteric as DCOP |
| *** Xu_R|Tired has quit IRC |
| *** jmma has left #trinity-desktop |
| Z_God | kb9vqf: sent :) |
| kb9vqf | ok, thanks |
| Z_God | ah I forgot to add the details about the environment variables needed, I'll send another mail about that |
| Z_God | let me know if you have any issues with the patches or getting it to compile/work |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | I probably won't be able to work on it much today, but if you want to continue working on the back/forward buttons, etc. feel free :) |
| Z_God | I'm not sure yet when I'll have time, but of course I really hope to continue |
| Z_God | it would be good to have everything building in SVN, then I can also more easily create patches |
| Z_God | also, I kind of hope you will be able to reproduce that it actually works now :) |
| Z_God | btw. suse had several separate packages for these bindings |
| Z_God | I'm not sure if debian ever packaged them before |
| Z_God | if you want I can research a bit how suse split things up when they were still shipping it, I guess it would make sense to do it similarly |
| Z_God | I'm off to bed now, good night all! |

| calvin | kb9vqf: does kpackage usually take up such space? |
| kb9vqf | ? |
| calvin | and I see there are multiple backends... I could write one for pacman potentially |
| calvin | seems to be a memory hog |
| kb9vqf | how so? |
| kb9vqf | it might have a package search database... |
| calvin | must be :) |
| calvin | it uses 15% of my 4gigs |
| calvin | so like 450 mb of res memory |
| calvin | I assume just because it loads the database. not a big deal |
| calvin | but a pacman backend would be almost easy, I've worked with pacman a ton and have worked on the source code and am familiar with the backend library libalpm |
| kb9vqf | hey, go for it :) |
| kb9vqf | patches are always welcome |
| calvin | anyway, trinity is really rocking |
| calvin | I have kpowermanager all setup perfectly |
| calvin | still trying to remove gnome from my system. doesn't seem to be a container package |
| *** calvin is now known as MobileTurkey |
| kb9vqf | nope, there isn't |
| kb9vqf | welcome to bad design (again) :-P |
| kb9vqf | and glad to hear Trinity is working well for you :) |
| kb9vqf | Are you running the latest code from SVN? |
| MobileTurkey | yes |
| MobileTurkey | the quickbuild yes? |
| MobileTurkey | kpackage seems to be really nice though, honesty browsing through apps is really handly (arch has had a few frontends, none of which I liked) |
| MobileTurkey | kb9vqf: also I see that kmozilla is working again? |
| kb9vqf | working on it still :) |
| kb9vqf | Z_God is doing some execllent work on that front |
| kb9vqf | *excellent rather |
| MobileTurkey | that would be really good good good |
| MobileTurkey | though it is gtk :| |
| kb9vqf | I don't care |
| kb9vqf | I don't want to maintain a Web browser |
| kb9vqf | that's like reinventing the wheel |
| kb9vqf | over and over |
| MobileTurkey | It is |
| MobileTurkey | I concur |
| kb9vqf | and besides, with kgtk...well... |
| MobileTurkey | I mean, as long as it integrates... |
| kb9vqf | the lines are blurred pretty good :) |
| MobileTurkey | indeed |
| MobileTurkey | but I think a webkit backend would be better ;) |
| kb9vqf | feel free to work on it :-P |
| * MobileTurkey adds to list |
| kb9vqf | I am fed up with Qt4 right now |
| kb9vqf | Every Qt4 app I touch is slow as molasses |
| MobileTurkey | what are you stuck on now? |
| kb9vqf | It's not Trinity related actually |
| MobileTurkey | eh? |
| kb9vqf | I was just trying out new software |
| kb9vqf | and you can tell the Qt4 apps from the non-Qt based apps quite readily |
| MobileTurkey | I don't think its all qt... apps are just written crappily also. |
| kb9vqf | well, Qt4 adds its own special touch of bloatiness and clunky widgets :-P |
| MobileTurkey | qt4 just helped them jump the mental barrier of "slim desktop' to "lets have a mysql database to count the amount of times I fart in one day" |
| kb9vqf | I guess |
| kb9vqf | either way Qt4 has a very bad reputation in my mind |
| MobileTurkey | every time there is a push to go to the 'next new thing' people assume they need to load crap on |
| kb9vqf | no different than Visual Basic I suppose |
| kb9vqf | you can write good VB apps |
| MobileTurkey | it's just like the gnome2.6 -> 3 mes |
| kb9vqf | but most people write bad VB apps |
| kb9vqf | so VB gets a bad name |
| kb9vqf | :-P |
| MobileTurkey | kb9vqf: I say that about C++ though |
| kb9vqf | C++ has its place |
| kb9vqf | it is perfect for the desktop |
| kb9vqf | it is NOT perfect for embedded systems ;-) |
| MobileTurkey | I think it has the tendency to grow out of control |
| kb9vqf | it takes more effort to manage |
| kb9vqf | so it is easier to let your apps bloat |
| MobileTurkey | yep |
| kb9vqf | but that's like saying that when you use an air nailer you do a bad job of roofing because you can put more nails in the roof |
| MobileTurkey | but again same as VB, it's not the langauge that is bad, its more the group that writes in it |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| MobileTurkey | I think the one bad thing about desktops being so accessable, is that everyone thinks they are a programmer |
| MobileTurkey | which is AWESOME from one point, because the community is growing, but then again, quality control goes out the window |
| kb9vqf | yeah |
| kb9vqf | in fact most people are NOT programmers |
| kb9vqf | most people don't even WANT to program |
| MobileTurkey | most people are "web developers" |
| kb9vqf | but when the open source devs are saying "you need to fix that yourself".... |
| MobileTurkey | that is also true |
| kb9vqf | most people are lamers, not hackers ;-) |
| kb9vqf | even under Linux |
| MobileTurkey | indeed. |
| MobileTurkey | especially under linux. |
| MobileTurkey | I'll say I am a fair share of lame |
| kb9vqf | yes, and I will reinforce that some :) |
| MobileTurkey | I just need motivation! |
| *** Z_God has quit IRC |
| kb9vqf | you alone are in control of your reputation ;-) |
| *** Z_God has joined #trinity-desktop |
| MobileTurkey | tis true |
| kb9vqf | I know real life gets in the way |
| MobileTurkey | now I just need to get my development workflow setup on this lappy |
| kb9vqf | but come on, send in some patches already :)) |
| MobileTurkey | xD |
| MobileTurkey | It's about time, but now I am using it, I will be able to do a ton more |
| MobileTurkey | I already have an idea for kpackager. |
| MobileTurkey | kb9vqf: to do devel on trinity under ubuntu, do I need to install -dev package for trinity? |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| MobileTurkey | I know there is some sort of split, I am not sure though |
| MobileTurkey | like kdebase-dev? |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| kb9vqf | kdebase-trinity-dev |
| kb9vqf | otherwise you'll get a load of KDE4 garbage |
| kb9vqf | *truckload |
| MobileTurkey | okay |
| MobileTurkey | also, is there a way to clone the whole svn tree without it cutting out? maybe it's only me but it errors out alot |
| kb9vqf | hmmm, nope |
| kb9vqf | I'd grab just the part you are interested in honestly |
| MobileTurkey | yeah good idea |
| MobileTurkey | wait I know! I can just scp the tree I have on my other box. ( have most of it already |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | oh fun |
| kb9vqf | /usr/include/glib-2.0/gobject/gtype.h:385: error: expected ‘=’, ‘,’, ‘;’, ‘asm’ or ‘__attribute__’ before ‘typedef’ |
| kb9vqf | I hate that :-P |
| MobileTurkey | usually just a typo yes? |
| MobileTurkey | why are you working with the g stack? |
| kb9vqf | mozilla kpart |
| kb9vqf | and the typo wouldn't be in the Trinity code |
| kb9vqf | unless it's something really obscure |
| kb9vqf | which is why I hate this kind of problem ;-) |
| MobileTurkey | hmmm :| |
| kb9vqf | looks like I have two different glib includes specified |
| kb9vqf | I wonder if that could do it |
| kb9vqf | 1.2 and 2.0 |
| MobileTurkey | yeah, gtk is like qt in that sense, you can't have 1.2 and 2.6 or 3.0 together |
| MobileTurkey | symbol clashing |
| kb9vqf | nope |
| kb9vqf | err, wait |
| kb9vqf | hmmm |
| kb9vqf | bad gtk version as well |
| kb9vqf | grrrr..... |
| kb9vqf | Isn't prgramming fun? |
| MobileTurkey | typically I find the fun part is getting an awesome idea and implementing it, the bug fixing, not so much |
| kb9vqf | hehe |
| kb9vqf | That was it BTW |
| kb9vqf | two include headers, one from each version :-P |
| kb9vqf | oh well |
| MobileTurkey | ouch |
| MobileTurkey | anyway I am going to bed (scp is still going nicely) |

| kb9vqf | we will not build binaries for Oneric (11.10) until it has hit the final release candidate |
| kb9vqf | otherwise it is a massive waste of our resources to constantly rebuild binaries for every single source package |
| kb9vqf | (for reference, on the build farm it takes one day solid to rebuild all of the binaries for one distribution version--Trinity includes a lot of software!) |

| calvin | while trying to install dev packages |
| calvin | nevermind went through this time |
| *** jmma has quit IRC |
| *** yomyom has left #trinity-desktop |
| *** calvin is now known as MutantTurkey |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: poking around with C++, I still don't get this whole class thing lol |
| kb9vqf | well, there are some good guides online... ;-) |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: I like the "mess around and hope it compiles method" |
| MutantTurkey | playing around with kpackage |
| kb9vqf | which doesn't make for good program design.... |
| MutantTurkey | I agree |
| MutantTurkey | mostly I am just playing around with the backend interface and seeing how it works |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: we don't have docs generate for various kde apis do we? is there a package |
| kb9vqf | http://www.trinitydesktop.org/docs/ |
| MutantTurkey | savior |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: how does Kicon work? I mean is there is freedesktop standard for icon naming? :| |
| kb9vqf | dunno, sorry |
| MutantTurkey | okay thanks :) |
| MutantTurkey | docs = everything is okay |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: okay now to create a patch... |
| MutantTurkey | can svn do this for me? |
| kb9vqf | svn diff |
| MutantTurkey | also if I remove files will it do that too? |
| MutantTurkey | and add files, or move them? |
| kb9vqf | svn add <filename> |
| kb9vqf | svn del <filename> |
| kb9vqf | svn mv <filename> <dest> |
| kb9vqf | then svn diff |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| MutantTurkey | can svn del be recursive? :x |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: okay then svn diff | name.patch? |
| kb9vqf | svn diff &> patch.diff :) |
| MutantTurkey | should the patch be named? |
| MutantTurkey | whoa firefox 7 is really fast |
| MutantTurkey | (coming from a guy who hates ff) |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: sent it off to the ML |
| MutantTurkey | take a look! :D |
| MutantTurkey | (since I need to sleep and would like some sort of positive feedback before I do) |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: going to sleep. maybe you will accept it :) night |
| kb9vqf | ok, sorry |
| kb9vqf | not much time to work on Trinity ATM |
| kb9vqf | and if files are moved it will take longer to approve because distribution packaging has to be changed to match |
| kb9vqf | nothing personal, just the facts of software maintinence :) |

| kb9vqf | sorry, security trumps convenience |
| kb9vqf | always :) |
| kb9vqf | now what we could do is encourage the user to set echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/yama/ptrace_scope in the crash dialog |
| MutantTurkey | I am just having trouble imagining a "hacker" targeting linux over my secured ethernet connection behind my firewall |
| kb9vqf | well, that's why you can set the yama sysctl to 0 permanently |
| MutantTurkey | but wouldn't it not matter? I mean isn't that the purpose of privledges on linux? so that even if a user does something dumb or is comprimised it can't effect the system |
| kb9vqf | ptrace is special in that regard |
| kb9vqf | you can most certainly mess up the system that way |
| kb9vqf | anyway, we're off topic :) |
| kb9vqf | now can you generate the backtrace? |
| MutantTurkey | indeed |
| MutantTurkey | loading it up |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: so with ptrace I can examine and modify all memory? |
| kb9vqf | not sure |
| kb9vqf | it is possible |
| MutantTurkey | seems more like something that needs to be corrected in the kernel rather than disabling it |
| MutantTurkey | I see they are doing upstream stuff, that is good |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: want a bug or email? |
| kb9vqf | pastebin for now :) |
| MutantTurkey | http://pastebin.ca/2086550 |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: note that I can actually use the monitor with krandr_tray |
| MutantTurkey | so It's not the hardware that can't do it |
| kb9vqf | that makes sense |
| kb9vqf | I know it's not the hardware ;-) |
| kb9vqf | actually, which graphics chip do you have? |
| kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Try this patch: http://pastebin.com/QBCvMBdQ |
| kb9vqf | No guarantees as to whether the control center will work properly as I don't know why it can't find your primary monitor, but this should at least avoid the crash |
| kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: You still around? |
| MutantTurkey | yes sorry |
| MutantTurkey | little sister is sick |
| MutantTurkey | I have the intel 3000 internal graphics card |
| MutantTurkey | it's coupled with the new sandy bridge processors |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: sorry I am a noobie at applying patches |
| kb9vqf | cd kdebase/ |
| kb9vqf | patch -p0 < patch.diff |
| MutantTurkey | okay |
| kb9vqf | dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot |
| kb9vqf | wait a while |

| kb9vqf | ok |

| *** TokRa has joined #trinity-desktop |
| MutantTurkey | hey TokRa |
| TokRa | Evening, MutantTurkey :) |
| MutantTurkey | how are you? |
| schreiberstein | Hi MutantTurkey! |
| MutantTurkey | hey schreiberstein! |
| MutantTurkey | it's a party in here, haha |
| TokRa | MutantTurkey: Nice as always :) |
| MutantTurkey | Excellent to hear |
| TokRa | For the bad news: I have switched to KDE4 completely. |
| MutantTurkey | :| |
| schreiberstein | yep. he definitely is! |
| schreiberstein | TokRa: Why? |
| schreiberstein | i like kde4 too. but kde3 is better in my opinion |
| TokRa | schreiberstein: more modern, featureful |
| MutantTurkey | TokRa: I can't even get past installing it, it just keeps getting caught with nokomoko |
| MutantTurkey | "modern" means bloat? |
| schreiberstein | it work'S damn slow on my homeserver... |
| MutantTurkey | schreiberstein: I daresay, it plauges my server as well |
| schreiberstein | intel atom |
| MutantTurkey | schreiberstein: ... me too! |
| MutantTurkey | though I love my little n330 atom |
| schreiberstein | :-D |
| TokRa | kde3 has becme deprecated and poorly supported (I mean, a fistful of geeks is not enough) |
| kb9vqf | well, he must not need the features Trinity offers |
| kb9vqf | that's his choice |
| * TokRa always use the cheapest CPU possible :) |
| MutantTurkey | off with his head (joking) |
| MutantTurkey | TokRa: amd? :P |
| schreiberstein | of course... |
| MutantTurkey | or "take him away" |
| schreiberstein | he said intel atom |
| TokRa | model name : AMD Sempron(tm) 140 Processor |
| MutantTurkey | or "the infidel..." |
| TokRa | MutantTurkey: You bet :) |
| kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: you can just cd to obj-*/kcontrol/displayconfig and make && make install in there |
| MutantTurkey | schreiberstein: I love my atom |
| MutantTurkey | ok |
| MutantTurkey | with cmake will it matter? |
| kb9vqf | it'll work |
| schreiberstein | MutantTurkey: Atom is fu****g slow. but it'S good enough for lamp, mpd, git, etc. |
| kb9vqf | Trinity is a DE for geeks, so... |
| MutantTurkey | schreiberstein: I use it as a desktop... |
| MutantTurkey | I think linux is for geeks in general |
| MutantTurkey | I don't like this "LETS GET EVERYONE INVOLVED EVEN THOUGH THEY JUST WANT TO USE MACS" fanboyism |
| schreiberstein | MutantTurkey: but it is really slow compared to an amd x2 |
| kb9vqf | KDE4 is for the facebook crowd |
| kb9vqf | so not really |
| MutantTurkey | schreiberstein: yeah it's true |
| MutantTurkey | imagine compiling trinity on it? :| |
| MutantTurkey | that was why my progress was so terrible with archlinux |
| schreiberstein | MutantTurkey: i compiled kde 2 on it.. tool 1 or two hours |
| schreiberstein | *took |
| MutantTurkey | kde3.5 is a lot more |
| kb9vqf | yeah, you don't want to do that :eek: |
| MutantTurkey | at least it took like 45 minutes or just qt3 |
| kb9vqf | So TokRa is your mirror going down |
| kb9vqf | ? |
| TokRa | kb9vqf: absolutely not :) I'll keep supporting TDE as promised. |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | btw I think it's stuck |
| MutantTurkey | hip hip! hooray |
| kb9vqf | hasn't updated for almost a week |
| TokRa | The DE on my desktops has nothing to do with it :) |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| TokRa | o.O |
| kb9vqf | I look at it this way: TDE is more like Windows XP on a domain, and KDE4 is more like Windows 7 on its own |
| kb9vqf | Different use cases entirely |
| kb9vqf | If you use the wrong tool for the job you will just get frustrated |
| MutantTurkey | hence the reason that there are multiple DE's |
| MutantTurkey | everyone has a different flow |
| kb9vqf | so don't encourage users that don't need TDE's features to use it :) |
| kb9vqf | it'll just result in bad press for us |
| MutantTurkey | (which is why unity/gnome3 stink because they force you onto a single developers flow) |
| kb9vqf | for us |
| kb9vqf | other people might like that flow |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: got it, was a header file |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| MutantTurkey | stinking ubuntu doesn't have headers |
| kb9vqf | heh |
| MutantTurkey | but problem solved |
| MutantTurkey | what was weird is there was a link error, not a include error? |
| kb9vqf | you should probably have done an apt-get build-dep kdebase-trinity first |
| MutantTurkey | build-dep? |
| kb9vqf | it pulls in all the build dependencies |
| MutantTurkey | oh cool |
| kb9vqf | I am thinking of adding more domain-type features to trinity in the future |
| MutantTurkey | domain type? |
| kb9vqf | I'm trying to make a first-class business-grade DE here :) |
| MutantTurkey | I am unfamiliar |
| MutantTurkey | oh so like for deployment on multi desktops |
| kb9vqf | LDAP centralized authentication |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| MutantTurkey | right |
| MutantTurkey | thats AWESOME |
| MutantTurkey | that is SO AWESOME |
| kb9vqf | I have it all working here but no GUI for it |
| kb9vqf | that's what I want to fix |
| MutantTurkey | these are features that people and businesses need |
| MutantTurkey | and things that keep linux from getting adopted... |
| kb9vqf | anyway, just pipe dreaming ATM, without much time to work on it... |
| kb9vqf | but yes |
| kb9vqf | and that means our goals are VERY different from KDE4 |
| kb9vqf | hence my comments above :) |
| MutantTurkey | I had the lock screen freeze on me today. I logged into a tty and killed the process, then I switched back and it was like i logged in, right back to the normal screen |
| MutantTurkey | is that a security issue? (jw) |
| MutantTurkey | killing the screen lock process shouldn't return to regular desktop usage? |
| kb9vqf | I don't think it's an issue |
| kb9vqf | out of curiosity where did it freeze? |
| kb9vqf | on what screen? |
| kb9vqf | the only thing i can do to improve security is kill the entire desktop session if the lock dies |
| MutantTurkey | I just unslept and it wouldn't accept my password |
| kb9vqf | wouldn't accept it? |
| MutantTurkey | I would type in, hit enter , ad it would just clear the text |
| MutantTurkey | and go right back to saying |
| MutantTurkey | press ctrl alt delete |
| kb9vqf | hmmmm |
| kb9vqf | only on resume after sleep? |
| MutantTurkey | yes |
| MutantTurkey | only happened once so far |
| kb9vqf | well, that's not good at all |
| kb9vqf | if it happens again let me know |
| MutantTurkey | ok |
| kb9vqf | and if it does happen again, please keep logging in over and over for at least 10 times |
| kb9vqf | see if it finally unwedges or not |
| kb9vqf | what may be happening is a stack of login screens |
| MutantTurkey | ok |
| MutantTurkey | like many are spawning |
| MutantTurkey | ? |
| kb9vqf | right |
| MutantTurkey | I only killed a single process |
| MutantTurkey | but possibly |
| kb9vqf | well, that process may have multiple windows |
| MutantTurkey | right |
| kb9vqf | anyway, you don't need to recompile all of kdebase ;-) |
| kb9vqf | just cd to that obj-* directory |
| MutantTurkey | yep |
| MutantTurkey | still crashed |
| kb9vqf | same crash? |
| MutantTurkey | I just copied the display library over to /opt/lib/trinity/lib |
| MutantTurkey | is that ok? |
| kb9vqf | run make install |
| MutantTurkey | the freshly build one |
| kb9vqf | from within the obj-*/kcontrol/displayconfig directory |
| kb9vqf | that way you will be sure to have it installed correctly |
| kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Is the backtrace identical to before? |
| MutantTurkey | looks to be |
| MutantTurkey | let me verify |
| MutantTurkey | Different |
| MutantTurkey | reuploading |
| kb9vqf | for some reason it can't find your primary monitor, and I wonder why that is |
| kb9vqf | It concerns me |
| MutantTurkey | Oh holy crap |
| MutantTurkey | i think this might be because krandr is running |
| MutantTurkey | let me try from scratch |
| kb9vqf | that shouldn't make any difference |
| MutantTurkey | i had one screen disabled |
| kb9vqf | if there's a bug with that I need to know! |
| MutantTurkey | its been working perfectly so far |
| MutantTurkey | krandr that is |
| kb9vqf | well, yes |
| kb9vqf | because it does not use the advanced features in libkrandr |
| kb9vqf | e.g. it doesn't let you set a primary monitor, etc. |
| MutantTurkey | with it unplugged = no crash (still a bit slow though) |
| MutantTurkey | plugged = crash |
| kb9vqf | right |
| kb9vqf | new pastebin please? |
| MutantTurkey | http://pastebin.ca/2086564 |
| MutantTurkey | there ya go |
| MutantTurkey | gotta help with groceries really quickly |
| kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Try this: http://pastebin.com/stc1cSmm |
| kb9vqf | Replace your entire displayconfig.cpp file in kcontrol/displayconfig with that |
| kb9vqf | then make/make install |
| MutantTurkey | displayconfigbase.cpp? |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: it installs to /usr/local/lib/trinity is that okay? |
| kb9vqf | no |
| kb9vqf | copy it to the correct location |
| kb9vqf | and no, kdebase/kcontrol/displayconfig/displayconfig.cpp |
| kb9vqf | NOT displayconfigbase.cpp |
| *** schreiberstein is now known as away_schreiberst |
| kb9vqf | you need to look outside the obj-* directory |
| MutantTurkey | ahhh |
| MutantTurkey | wait the obj-* diirectoy |
| MutantTurkey | ? |
| MutantTurkey | ohh |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: okay still crashing |
| kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Grrr |
| MutantTurkey | :| |
| MutantTurkey | *runs away* |
| kb9vqf | can you get line numbers this time? |
| MutantTurkey | do you want any other info? |
| kb9vqf | the last backtrace was usesless |
| MutantTurkey | yes sure |
| MutantTurkey | wait howso? |
| kb9vqf | the last backtrace you pastebinned had no line numbers in it :-P |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf:http://pastebin.ca/2086565 |
| MutantTurkey | weird |
| kb9vqf | same thing |
| kb9vqf | oh well |
| kb9vqf | I guess I'll have to try to reproduce it here |
| MutantTurkey | wait what? |
| MutantTurkey | no line numbers? |
| kb9vqf | #7 0x00007fddd08dbedb in KDisplayConfig::moveMonitor(DraggableMonitor*, int, int) () from /opt/trinity/lib/trinity/kcm_displayconfig.so |
| kb9vqf | instead of |
| kb9vqf | #7 0x00007fc79256aeaf in KDisplayConfig::moveMonitor (this=0x1fc8030, monitor=0x2030640, realx=0, realy=0) at /build/buildd/kdebase-trinity-3.5.13/kcontrol/displayconfig/displayconfig.cpp:641 |
| MutantTurkey | you don't mean the #7? |
| kb9vqf | no |
| MutantTurkey | oh |
| MutantTurkey | sorry :[ |
| MutantTurkey | do you want any dmesg output or anything related to that? |
| MutantTurkey | I don't know if my setup is automagically different |
| kb9vqf | all you did was plug in a new monitor, right? |
| kb9vqf | and it just died? |
| MutantTurkey | no |
| MutantTurkey | When I have it plugged in first |
| MutantTurkey | then go to system->display... |
| kb9vqf | right, and then it dies |
| MutantTurkey | aye |
| kb9vqf | let me see if I can replicate that |
| MutantTurkey | ok |
| MutantTurkey | Also if I got to system->dispaly first then plugin, then hit "rescan" it crashes |
| kb9vqf | that makes sense |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: dinnner bbs |
| kb9vqf | you're in luck--I can replicate the problem on my Intel chip |
| kb9vqf | now to see about fixing it... :) |
| MutantTurkey | excellent |

| Z_God | I think it would be good if there would be a Trinity interface to make dpkg-reconfigure accessible easily and then if any of those interfaces suck, fixes could be made upstream to improve that UI for all users |

| Mias | hello |
| Mias | how to put compiz into kdm? |
| kb9vqf | you can't |
| kb9vqf | compiz does not have the ability to switch the running user |
| kb9vqf | i.e. if it is launched as root it will run as root for the remainder of the Xorg session (== big security problem) |
| Mias | ohnoez |
| Mias | fusion-icon wont work here |
| kb9vqf | you can of course launch compiz in your user session |
| kb9vqf | what is wrong with fusion-icon |
| kb9vqf | ? |
| Mias | no it says xgl not there |
| Mias | but it runs using xinit |
| Mias | kb9vqf: it cant launch it |
| kb9vqf | huh |
| kb9vqf | is this with the nightly builds? |
| kb9vqf | or 3.5.12? |
| Mias | how to see version? |
| Mias | should be actual from the repo |
| Mias | on lucid |
| kb9vqf | Go to Konqueror, then Help->About Trinity |
| kb9vqf | If your version is even older then it might read Help->About KDE |
| kb9vqf | You will see the version number on the top of that dialog boc |
| kb9vqf | *box |
| kb9vqf | post it here |
| Mias | 3.5.11 |
| kb9vqf | you are running an outdated and unsupported version of Trinity |
| kb9vqf | I am not surprised fusion-icon does not work |
| kb9vqf | 3.5.11 has more in common with KDE 3.5.10 than the current version of Trinity |
| kb9vqf | perhaps searching for forum posts about fusion-icon not working with KDE 3.5.10 would be more helpful? |
| kb9vqf | otherwise I strongly recommend to upgrade to at least KDE 3.5.12, or the nightly builds |
| kb9vqf | 3.5.13 will be available by the end of the year if all goes well, so if you can wait a bit longer that would be your best bet |
| Mias | uhm.. |
| Mias | i installed it 2 weeks ago following the instructions on trinity-desktop.org |
| kb9vqf | onto lucid |
| kb9vqf | which is marked as "OldStable" |
| kb9vqf | right on the website :) |
| Mias | yo.. & the same on my netbook 1 year ago and all ok |
| kb9vqf | we did not build 3.5.12 for Lucid due to a lack of resources |
| kb9vqf | we aren't Canonical ;-) |
| kb9vqf | 3.5.13 will be built for Lucid, Maverick, Natty, (probably Oneric), and Debian Squeeze |
| Mias | so I cant have 3.5.12? |
| kb9vqf | not on Lucid |
| kb9vqf | but you can wait a bit for 3.5.13 |
| Mias | what's it with that xgl error? |
| kb9vqf | I have no idea at this point |
| kb9vqf | it could be any number of things |
| kb9vqf | including outdated software |
| kb9vqf | Compiz has always been a bit finicky in my experience |
| kb9vqf | (even outside of KDE) |
| kb9vqf | which graphics chip are you using? |
| Mias | sure it is |
| kb9vqf | you could write to our trinity-users mailing list with your problem |
| kb9vqf | there may be others there who have run into it |
| Mias | nvidia Corporation G98 [GeForce 8400 GS] on pc, intel on netbook |
| kb9vqf | ah, ok |
| kb9vqf | well, there is no reason that I can think of that that hardware should not work |
| kb9vqf | personally I have not used Lucid in some time, so I couldn't tell you if it's an Xorg issue or a problem in fusion-icon, or even in Compiz itself |
| kb9vqf | try the mailing list, we do have other Lucid users there that are not on IRC :) |
| kb9vqf | if there is a bug I'd like to see it fixed for 3.5.13 |
| Mias | hmm |
| kb9vqf | also, running fusion-icon from the terminal and posting the entire output would be helpful |
| kb9vqf | send that in to the mailing list |
| Mias | i acccc. started kde4 with compiz running |
| Mias | ha good idea |
| Mias | maybe this worx with kde3 also |
| Mias | but the kicker menu will be empty :) |
| Mias | + kcontrol |

| MutantTurkey | I don't really know how compiz works |
| MutantTurkey | :| |
| kb9vqf | you *should* be able to install fusion-icon-trinity |
| kb9vqf | when you do, there *should* be an icon in your system tray |
| kb9vqf | (if not launch it manually from kicker) |
| kb9vqf | and then you *should* be able to tell it to launch Compiz |
| kb9vqf | (by clicking on the new system tray icon) |
| kb9vqf | I haven't tested this in quite a while, but we had someone here (Mias) who may have found a problem with it |
| kb9vqf | and I'd like to resolve it if the problem is still in SVN |
| MutantTurkey | okay upgraded |
| MutantTurkey | no crash! |
| MutantTurkey | :D |
| MutantTurkey | awesome it works! |
| MutantTurkey | now I can stick konversation in it's own display ;0 |
| MutantTurkey | :) |
| kb9vqf | nice little tool, no? :) |
| MutantTurkey | dang. it crashed |
| kb9vqf | doing what? |
| MutantTurkey | after I had tested and everything set up perfectly. |
| MutantTurkey | I hit "apply" |
| kb9vqf | hmmm |
| MutantTurkey | want the traceback? (display is still configured properly |
| kb9vqf | backtrace would be helpful |
| kb9vqf | what does "properly" mean? |
| MutantTurkey | oh yeah.... gotta do that proc thing again |
| kb9vqf | it worked but then crashed? |
| MutantTurkey | it's working still |
| MutantTurkey | even though it crashed |
| kb9vqf | huh |
| MutantTurkey | because when I tested it, i just said "keep these settings" |
| MutantTurkey | so it had already applied them I suppose |
| kb9vqf | I suppose it might be related to some new code I just added :-P |
| kb9vqf | ironically it's debug code |
| kb9vqf | let's see the backtrace then I can comment further :) |
| MutantTurkey | how do I permenantly apply that /proc/ setting? |
| kb9vqf | something in sysctl.conf I imagine |
| kb9vqf | poke me when you have a backtrace |
| MutantTurkey | OK |
| MutantTurkey | also, can konsole open a new window in the same folder as the previous? |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: and sorry, I don't remember how to reenable the memory access for the kernel (it's not in my bash history either?) |

| Mias | kb9vqf: wohoo its w0rking now |
| Mias | wiith ~icon |
| MobileTurkey | kb9vqf: having trouble getting the backtrace |
| kb9vqf | ~icon? |
| Mias | fusion |
| kb9vqf | what did you do differently? |
| kb9vqf | MobileTurkey: What's wrong? |
| MobileTurkey | kb9vqf: Ok now even test settings renders a crash |
| MobileTurkey | and It keeps saying "this backtrace is of no use..." |
| Mias | kb9vqf: unclear, hacked all day diff. things |
| kb9vqf | did you echo 1 into the proc yama thing? |
| MobileTurkey | echo a 0 you mean |
| kb9vqf | Mias: Well, glad you got it working :) |
| kb9vqf | MobileTurkey: yes |
| MobileTurkey | I did |
| MobileTurkey | and it is 0 i just cat'd it out |
| Mias | hmm switched dbus off, etc pp |
| Mias | :) |
| kb9vqf | Mias: fusion-icon may have had a legitimate complaint about something in your setup that was resolved somehow in your troubleshooting |
| kb9vqf | that's what I always remember about Compiz--it's a pain to setup the first time |
| Mias | yea, orc cpz itself |
| Mias | ^or |
| kb9vqf | MobileTurkey: OK, try launching the control center module via kdesudo |
| kb9vqf | MobileTurkey: Once it's running attach to the process with gdb |
| kb9vqf | from another terminal |
| kb9vqf | you will probaby have to be root to do that |
| kb9vqf | MobileTurkey: Did it work? |
| MobileTurkey | No :/ |
| kb9vqf | you couldn't attach with gdb? |
| MobileTurkey | I mean I was just relying on the handy gui to do it |
| kb9vqf | no, you can't here for some reason |
| MobileTurkey | okay let medo it manually |
| kb9vqf | start it, find displayconfig in 'ps aux', attach with GDB, THEN try to make it crash :) |
| MobileTurkey | there are two processes. kcmshell displayconfig and kcmswhell.real |
| kb9vqf | MobileTurkey: Does on have bin/sh somewhere in it? |
| kb9vqf | *one |
| kb9vqf | if so, attach to the other |
| MobileTurkey | ok |
| MobileTurkey | I went with the one that has a ton more memory... |
| MobileTurkey | assuming that is the real one, other is a wrapper i think |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| kb9vqf | MobileTurkey: Any luck? |
| kb9vqf | I'm trying to cram you into a small timeslot before the build computer is used for other tasks again |
| MobileTurkey | sorry |
| MobileTurkey | let me hurry |
| kb9vqf | np |
| MobileTurkey | okay its ready |
| MobileTurkey | now I just crash it? |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| MobileTurkey | grr |
| kb9vqf | ? |
| kb9vqf | how do you know xrandr itself isn't crashing? |
| MobileTurkey | every time i attach and go back to it, the display kcm is blank |
| kb9vqf | oh |
| MobileTurkey | kb9vqf: because krandrtray can do it |
| kb9vqf | you did type 'c' for continue, right? |
| MobileTurkey | eh |
| kb9vqf | in gdb |
| MobileTurkey | good call |
| MobileTurkey | now crashing it |
| MobileTurkey | okay now how do I output it all |
| kb9vqf | bt |
| kb9vqf | for "backtrace" |
| MobileTurkey | at /build/buildd/kdelibs-..../krandr/libkranr.cc:606 |
| MobileTurkey | "bKRandrSimpleAPI::applySystemwideDisplayConfiguration (this=0x23b8980, screenInfoArray=..., test=false) at /build/buildd/kdelibs-trinity-3.5.13/krandr/libkrandr.cc:606" |
| MobileTurkey | is that relevant? |
| kb9vqf | hang on |
| kb9vqf | can you pastebin the whole thing? |
| MobileTurkey | yep |
| MobileTurkey | http://pastebin.ca/2086988 |
| kb9vqf | and this crash occurs right when you hit apply, correct? |
| kb9vqf | MobileTurkey: and this crash occurs right when you hit apply, correct? |
| MobileTurkey | yes |
| kb9vqf | well, I'll say right now the crash is in an odd spot |
| MobileTurkey | really? |
| kb9vqf | I can throw in a fix to prevent the crash but I don't know how much good it will do |
| MobileTurkey | what is the reason it crashes? |
| kb9vqf | the number of monitors changes between scanning and application of the settings |
| kb9vqf | so it is possible that there is an Xorg bug underlying this that I will need to work around |
| kb9vqf | granted displayconfig should just malfunction, not crash, but still.... |
| kb9vqf | it concerns me a bit |
| MobileTurkey | sigh |
| kb9vqf | I'll push the fixes up to SVN, which should stabilize displayconfig |
| kb9vqf | but if it doesn't work then I need to know :) |
| MobileTurkey | okay |
| MobileTurkey | let me know I can rebuild |
| MobileTurkey | once you push |
| kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Patch 1 is in SVN revision 1257359. |
| kb9vqf | but I would wait for the binary packages if I were you |
| MobileTurkey | why is that? |
| kb9vqf | better debugging |
| MobileTurkey | ok good thinking |
| kb9vqf | when you install it yourself we don't get line numbers |
| kb9vqf | and I won't know if it's a compilation issue on your system causing the crash, etc, etc. |
| MobileTurkey | how long till rebuild? |
| kb9vqf | you'll have the fixed versions by tomorrow morning |
| MobileTurkey | okay so i'll get the changes at lunch and see if its fixed |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| kb9vqf | thanks for working with me on this |
| MobileTurkey | yep |
| kb9vqf | so I take it you were able to at least partially enable your extra monitor before it crashed? |
| MobileTurkey | I am still on it... |
| MobileTurkey | which is weird. it is completely working the first time |
| MobileTurkey | then when I tried to reproduce, it keeps crashing |
| MobileTurkey | both monitors are working rigt now though |
| kb9vqf | huh |
| kb9vqf | oh well |
| kb9vqf | we'll see where this is tomorrow |
| MobileTurkey | yep |
| kb9vqf | if it's still crashing at line 606 right now I wouldn't bother keeping trying |
| kb9vqf | for some reason Xorg is reporting different numbers of monitors or something |
| kb9vqf | :S |
| MobileTurkey | is it because I hit "make this my primary monitor?" |
| kb9vqf | nope |
| kb9vqf | that doesn't make any difference |
| kb9vqf | not in that block of code anyway |
| kb9vqf | technically it seems that Xorg is reporting too many monitors and therefore the tool is trying to access monitor configuration data that does not exists |
| kb9vqf | hence the crash |
| kb9vqf | the "fix" not only checks for valid data, but also uses the initially reported number of monitors from the scan or rescan |
| kb9vqf | so we'll see what happens :) |
| MobileTurkey | okay |
| kb9vqf | I can't tet very thoroughly here because I can't afford the power to start up my fancy nVidia machine, and my laptop's Intel chip only lets me have a virtual screen up to 1600x1600 pixels |
| kb9vqf | which is not enough to activate an external monitor |
| kb9vqf | we're in another stupid heat wave here |
| MobileTurkey | yeesh |
| MobileTurkey | we are just hitting cold in philly |
| MobileTurkey | I've come down with a nasty cold incidentally |
| kb9vqf | well, get well soon, there are lots of bugs to fix! |
| kb9vqf | :)) |
| MobileTurkey | being sick = more time to do trinity |
| kb9vqf | BTW I am going to set a tentative release date of November 1st |
| MobileTurkey | excuse that I am sick is working well |
| MobileTurkey | sweet. |
| kb9vqf | at this point we have to release bugs and all |
| kb9vqf | because of Oneric |
| MobileTurkey | Lets use that deadline to help us get motivated |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| kb9vqf | broadcast it far and wide |
| MobileTurkey | rally the troops |
| kb9vqf | also we are therefore in a feature freeze |
| MobileTurkey | that means you Xu_R! |
| kb9vqf | if it's large then it has to wait for 3.5.14 |
| MobileTurkey | kb9vqf: makes sense |
| kb9vqf | and no we won't be going to 3.6 afterwards because the bugs weren't fixed in a timely fashion :-P |
| kb9vqf | such is life... |
| MobileTurkey | yep |
| MobileTurkey | such is life |
| kb9vqf | at this point we need to get rid of as many crashing bugs as possible, including the ones in displayconfig |
| kb9vqf | because that will be one of our front-page new features |
| MobileTurkey | It's a good setup |
| MobileTurkey | another question though, do we need some sort of panel integration? like krandr |
| kb9vqf | ? |
| MobileTurkey | you know krandrtray is a nice panel applet |
| MobileTurkey | do we need a panel applet for the displayconfig? |
| kb9vqf | Yes it is, but the module in kcontrol uses the same backend |
| MobileTurkey | oh okay |
| kb9vqf | there is really just too much info for a tray app |
| MobileTurkey | so changes with go to both? |
| kb9vqf | you an still use krandrtray |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| MobileTurkey | good |
| kb9vqf | krandrtray is not persistent |
| kb9vqf | never has been |
| MobileTurkey | yeah |
| kb9vqf | you can make a change there and on reboot it will reset |
| kb9vqf | displayconfig is permanent |
| kb9vqf | as soon as kdm loads the settings are applied |
| kb9vqf | actually a bit before :) |
| kb9vqf | so that the login screen shows up on your primary monitor |
| MobileTurkey | excellent |
| MobileTurkey | do we need to audit all the bugs? |
| kb9vqf | you'll have to test all this out for me again once it stops crashing :) |
| kb9vqf | audit? |
| MobileTurkey | as in, go through them and make sure they are still valid, or are not, and such |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | in fact I think you are in the best position to do that |
| Xu_R | heard. will try to get as much as possible |
| kb9vqf | as you are running the latest binary packages |
| MobileTurkey | right on |
| MobileTurkey | I'll be doing that then |
| *** Xu_R is now known as Xu_R|StillTired |
| MobileTurkey | Xu_R: me too |
| kb9vqf | my systems are contaminated with direct source installations |
| MobileTurkey | I am going to bed at 9 |
| MobileTurkey | seems a bit ridiculous :P |
| Xu_R|StillTired | i envy you for that. |
| Xu_R|StillTired | xD |
| MobileTurkey | whats up with the konqueror certs? kb9vqf |
| kb9vqf | ? |
| kb9vqf | the failure to accept things? |
| MobileTurkey | yes |
| kb9vqf | dunno |
| kb9vqf | does it still do that for you? |
| MobileTurkey | yeah |
| kb9vqf | if so the certificate store needs to be looked at |
| MobileTurkey | makes using konqueror a pain in the ass |
| kb9vqf | we probably have an invalid master cert somewhere in the tree |
| kb9vqf | IIRC that is in kdelibs |
| MobileTurkey | okay |
| kb9vqf | if you want to try to hunt it down |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| MobileTurkey | I don't understand much about certs |
| MobileTurkey | always room to learn |
| kb9vqf | well, I can try to dig up the directory |
| kb9vqf | just not sure I'll have time to work on it |
| MobileTurkey | i'll poke around no worries |
| MobileTurkey | haha I just ran across an IDEAS file, circa 1999 |
| MobileTurkey | "I am trying to create a picture of how Konqueror should look like in kde 2.0" |
| kb9vqf | hehe |
| kb9vqf | if you run across suff like that add it to a list |
| MobileTurkey | so khtml is seperate from konqueror |
| MobileTurkey | good |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | KHTML is just a plugin |
| MobileTurkey | that solves alot already |
| MobileTurkey | a kpart? |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| MobileTurkey | I love trinity, so modular |
| kb9vqf | that's why Z_God got the mozilla kpart partially functional |
| MobileTurkey | so we could replace khtml with mozilla? |
| kb9vqf | if he were to fix it the rest of the way mozilla would become an alternative to KHTML |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| MobileTurkey | that would make konqueror viable as a browser |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| MobileTurkey | go Z_god go! |
| kb9vqf | and with the code as a base I wonder if chrome could be used |
| * kb9vqf dreams |
| MobileTurkey | kb9vqf: nope |
| MobileTurkey | they diverged from webkit and basically are being sucmbags |
| kb9vqf | ? |
| kb9vqf | oh |
| MobileTurkey | we can still use webkit though |
| kb9vqf | well, that's a shame |
| MobileTurkey | webkit rocks! |
| MobileTurkey | webkit > chrome imho |
| MobileTurkey | webkit is really easy to work with as well. |
| kb9vqf | webkit requires that we be moved off the Qt namespace, etc. |
| kb9vqf | so 3.5.14 at the earliest |
| MobileTurkey | TQtwebkit? |
| kb9vqf | no, just that we build qt as tqt instead of qt :) |
| kb9vqf | I know that doesn't make much sense |
| kb9vqf | but I know what has to be done |
| MobileTurkey | okay :D |
| kb9vqf | and it will happen right after 3.5.13 |
| kb9vqf | the problem is that it will break kdebindings rather badly |
| kb9vqf | until I attack it with sed |
| MobileTurkey | I am fuzzy about kdebindings |
| kb9vqf | it's horrid |
| MobileTurkey | what does it do? |
| kb9vqf | it provides Trinity services to python, ruby, and java apps |
| MobileTurkey | oh |
| MobileTurkey | okay |
| kb9vqf | basically extends the TDE and Qt api to such programs |
| kb9vqf | but the way it was done makes me shudder : |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| kb9vqf | it scans the Qt include header *documentation* and tries to build *some* (not all) source files from that :eek: |
| MobileTurkey | well always room for improvement |
| kb9vqf | except I'm a C++/C/asm kind of guy |
| kb9vqf | I don't really know Python, Ruby, or Java |
| kb9vqf | and don't really want to :-P |
| MobileTurkey | I am also a C guy |
| MobileTurkey | I understand your pain |
| kb9vqf | so hopefully sed can attack it and make it work :-) |
| kb9vqf | this is also going to be a complete breakage of the Qt ABI |
| MobileTurkey | wait what is? :| |
| MobileTurkey | *gets rather confused sometimes |
| kb9vqf | after 3.5.13, the conversion of Qt3 to get off the Qt4 namespace |
| kb9vqf | it has to be if you think about it |
| kb9vqf | all the classes will be really, truly renamed to TQ* |
| MobileTurkey | oh yes |
| MobileTurkey | I recall now, just the wording confused me |
| MobileTurkey | but that won't effect users will it? |
| kb9vqf | but the way it was done allowed us to get Trinity converted to TQ*, then release, then convert Qt itself :) |
| kb9vqf | and no it should't |
| MobileTurkey | then convert Qt itself :) < what do you mean by Qt there? |
| kb9vqf | Qt3 |
| MobileTurkey | okay cool |
| kb9vqf | Qt3 becomes TQt3 for real |
| kb9vqf | no interface needed any more |
| MobileTurkey | oh wow |
| MobileTurkey | awesome |
| kb9vqf | (though it will stick around for legacy reasons I think) |
| kb9vqf | this wasn't possible until we absorbed Qt3 |
| MobileTurkey | right |
| kb9vqf | and we can actually maintain both versions |
| kb9vqf | as I have an auto-converter :) |
| kb9vqf | anyway, I have some work to do |
| kb9vqf | if you have questions about the certs let me know |
| kb9vqf | they are "real" certificate files in a directory in kdelibs or kdebase somewhere |
| kb9vqf | and I bet one or more is invalid |
| MobileTurkey | why does it matter if these certs are invalid? |
| kb9vqf | you will get constant prompting about invalid certs |
| MobileTurkey | okay |
| MobileTurkey | can I manually check them? |
| kb9vqf | not sure |
| kb9vqf | personally I would trace the commit |
| kb9vqf | figure out what went wrong |
| MobileTurkey | where do they come from? |
| * MobileTurkey doesn't understand this really |
| kb9vqf | This looks promising: http://www.trinitydesktop.org/patches/r1123812.diff |
| kb9vqf | they are in kdelibs/kio/kssl/kssl |
| kb9vqf | there is some documentation there |
| MobileTurkey | okay thanks :D |
| kb9vqf | specifically I suspect the caroot is invalid |
| kb9vqf | if the root certificate is invalid then no certificates can ever be valid :) |
| kb9vqf | *validated |
| MobileTurkey | okay |
| MobileTurkey | these certs come from companies? |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | they are the root certificates |
| MobileTurkey | okay |
| kb9vqf | widely available |
| MobileTurkey | then everyone checks agianst it? |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| MobileTurkey | cool so all we have to do is get thier current certs? |
| kb9vqf | and it seems they were corrupted by commits like this http://websvn.kde.org/branches/trinity/kdelibs/kio/kssl/kssl/caroot/ca-bundle.crt?view=log |
| kb9vqf | well, not so fast |
| kb9vqf | there was something in the readme about something that has to be done to them |
| kb9vqf | but you get the general idea |
| MobileTurkey | okay |
| MobileTurkey | I will look into it now |
| kb9vqf | when you get it fixed get a patch and I'll apply it |
| kb9vqf | *generate a patch |
| kb9vqf | Honestly I'd revert the certificate files themeselves (not the C++ sources or headers) to revision 1123812 and see if that alone fixes the problem |
| MobileTurkey | I am getting excited. no time for bed |
| kb9vqf | I suspect the reversion alone will fix it |
| MobileTurkey | good |
| MobileTurkey | so I can just revert the files by getting the old files and replacing the new ones? |
| kb9vqf | you can check out the old source tree with svn co svn://svn.kde.org/home/kde/branches/trinity/kdelibs/kio/kssl --revision 1123812 |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| MobileTurkey | or is there a tech-savvy wa to do it |
| kb9vqf | nope, that's how |
| MobileTurkey | okay |
| kb9vqf | you check out the old tree and copy the files to the new one |
| kb9vqf | copy ONLY the certificate files though! |
| kb9vqf | leave the C/C++ sources alone |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| kb9vqf | we don't want to revert fixes to the source when trying to repair the certs ;-) |
| MobileTurkey | Understood |
| MobileTurkey | Affirmative |
| MobileTurkey | Rodger That. |
| kb9vqf | 10/4 |
| kb9vqf | :)) |
| MobileTurkey | hehe |
| MobileTurkey | kb9vqf: okay I am going to rebuild. will I need to do a make install or such? |
| kb9vqf | MobileTurkey: I would recommend dpkg-buildpackage |
| kb9vqf | just rebuild all of kdelibs |
| kb9vqf | then install the new packages |
| kb9vqf | reason being I don't remember if Debian massages the certs at all |
| MobileTurkey | does dpkg-buildpackage work if i just do it in kdelibs/? |
| kb9vqf | no |
| MobileTurkey | it just works? or do I need to fudge with it |
| kb9vqf | you need to apt-get source kdelibs into a new directory |
| kb9vqf | then copy the svn files over the existing ones in that new directory |
| kb9vqf | technically apt-get source creates a new subfolder and that is what you need to copy over the contents of |
| MobileTurkey | ;x |
| kb9vqf | it'll be pretty obvious once you get the source via apt-get :) |
| MobileTurkey | okay... |
| MobileTurkey | I am super unfamiliar with the whole apt-hell system |
| kb9vqf | and I'm an expert :) |
| MobileTurkey | good thing too |
| kb9vqf | had tobe |
| MobileTurkey | or else I'd be a duck in water, or whatever that saying is |
| kb9vqf | did your apt-get source work? |
| MobileTurkey | not sure how to do it :| |
| kb9vqf | make a new directory |
| kb9vqf | cd to that directory in a terminal |
| kb9vqf | apt-get source kdelibs-trinity |
| kb9vqf | rm * |
| kb9vqf | cd kdelibs* |
| kb9vqf | rsync -a --exclude=.svn/ <your_new_svn_tree>/* . |
| kb9vqf | dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot |
| kb9vqf | cd .. |
| kb9vqf | dpkg -i *.deb |
| kb9vqf | that should be it :) |
| MobileTurkey | so simple! |
| kb9vqf | it is really |
| kb9vqf | I love the .deb system |
| kb9vqf | BTW <your_new_svn_tree> would be /blah/foo/kdelibs |
| kb9vqf | just to make sure you pull the correct set of files: ) |
| MobileTurkey | ok |
| MobileTurkey | this i5 really does help... |
| MobileTurkey | kb9vqf: can I enable it to use multiple cores? |
| MobileTurkey | kb9vqf: okay i updated it with my build |

| *** calvin_ has quit IRC |
| *** MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: removed the conf in /etc/ so thats broken for now, but kdm is launching ok, now to the certs |
| kb9vqf | yep, makes sense |
| MutantTurkey | the old certs aren't good anymore (the ones I copied over) |
| kb9vqf | ? |
| kb9vqf | expired? |
| MutantTurkey | The server certificate failed authenticity test |
| MutantTurkey | Certificate signing authority root files could not be found so certificate is not verifed |
| MutantTurkey | The certificate has not been issued for this host |
| MutantTurkey | valid from ... 2009 -..... 2012 |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: looks like I will need to read how to do it and generate new erts |
| kb9vqf | yeah, we can't ship certs expiring in 2012 :-P |
| kb9vqf | I did it once before and it isn't too bad |
| kb9vqf | just follow the instructions :) |
| MutantTurkey | no the ones from facebook are at 2012 expired. |
| MutantTurkey | but the ones I am using are from 2005 |
| MutantTurkey | so... |
| MutantTurkey | obviously even worse |
| kb9vqf | oh yeah :-P |
| MutantTurkey | I'll just generate new ones |
| MutantTurkey | kde has an awesome crypto config |
| kb9vqf | you can't generate new ones from scratch |
| kb9vqf | hehe |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: the header files |
| kb9vqf | oh, ok |
| MutantTurkey | not the actual certs |
| kb9vqf | it's been a while since I did this :) |
| MutantTurkey | somehow they get bundled? |
| MutantTurkey | I am not sure how it works |
| kb9vqf | also I imagine the root cert needs to be updated |
| MutantTurkey | yes |
| kb9vqf | *root certs |
| MutantTurkey | maybe all |
| MutantTurkey | I'll do it tomorrow |
| MutantTurkey | I need to sleep this cold off |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | I'll also take a look tonight |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: getting really excited for this release though |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| MutantTurkey | could just be enough to get the ball rolling with more help |
| kb9vqf | if it's good and reasonably bug-free, then maybe |
| MutantTurkey | i mean I don't think people care to much about bug free.... look at kde4.0 hahahaa |
| MutantTurkey | but seriously, we can use the release to generate press, get users, etc |
| kb9vqf | our audience is somewhat different |
| kb9vqf | our users look for bugs |
| kb9vqf | and are very unhappy if they find them :) |
| kb9vqf | BTW I think all the .pem files in the kssl directory need to be updated with the latest available from the various certificate authorities |
| kb9vqf | that will take a bit of searching online |
| kb9vqf | or maybe from kde4's cert store (hint hint nudge wink) |
| MutantTurkey | hehe |
| MutantTurkey | if they are all published online I will be able to find them |
| MutantTurkey | more worried about getting it working than finding it |
| MutantTurkey | anyway gotta sleep |
| kb9vqf | I bet a simple copy+paste of the .pem files from KDE4 trunk (in GIT?) might work |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| MutantTurkey | okay i will look |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: tomorrow we will also hopefully work out the bugs with displayconfig |
| MutantTurkey | cya! |
| kb9vqf | gn :) |

| tbottu | 10New TDE 3.5 bug 532 filed by patrick@serru.net. |
| tbottu | 04Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=532 normal, P5, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, konqueror looping indefinitely |
| MutantTurkey | i've modified my apt/sources list so I am gettingthe download now |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| MutantTurkey | of course along with 5000 ubuntu other updates... makes for a long wait |
| MutantTurkey | did you see my message from about the cert_extract program? |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: okay It's installing now |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| MutantTurkey | thinking about going to the occupy philly protest tomorrow. my friend works at the paper and I have the hook up to get some cash if I get good footage and pictures |
| MutantTurkey | so might be busy for the next few weeks |
| kb9vqf | well, in that case test the display config and leave the certs to me |
| kb9vqf | *display |
| kb9vqf | looks like we'll be releasing with bugs :( |
| MutantTurkey | I am sure it will smooth over |
| MutantTurkey | did you look at the certs at all |
| MutantTurkey | ? |
| kb9vqf | nop |
| MutantTurkey | okay |
| kb9vqf | I was leaving that to you |
| MutantTurkey | okay |
| MutantTurkey | keep leaving it to me |
| kb9vqf | well, we need that in SVN soon :) |
| MutantTurkey | for a few hours |
| kb9vqf | that blocks release |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| MutantTurkey | nov 1st? |
| kb9vqf | that's what we're aiming for |
| kb9vqf | note that the code needs to stop changing before that ;-) |
| kb9vqf | there will probably be a 2 week pre-release code freeze |
| kb9vqf | where only critical and simply-patched bugs are fixed |
| kb9vqf | we need that to allow the packaging systems to run |
| kb9vqf | as well as create live cds, etc. |
| MutantTurkey | understand |
| MutantTurkey | okay |
| MutantTurkey | okay so the cert_extract.c depends on libdb1 which is defunct. compat libraries exist but the -dev headers are gone |
| kb9vqf | ? |
| kb9vqf | libdb should be backwards compatible |
| kb9vqf | so libdb8 (or whatever is on Ubuntu) should work |
| MutantTurkey | I think that not |
| *** jmma has joined #trinity-desktop |
| MutantTurkey | because there is regular libdb and libdb1 |
| MutantTurkey | I have the regular libdb headers installed. |
| MutantTurkey | ah. seperate packages for C and C++ headers... |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: not compatible, I changed the <db1/db.h> to regular <db.h> and it's no good |
| kb9vqf | huh |
| kb9vqf | look at the KDE4 version :) |
| kb9vqf | if it's a regular C file then it doesn't use Qt |
| MutantTurkey | no it does not |
| kb9vqf | which means we can use the KDE4 variant |
| *** MutantTurkey has quit IRC |
| *** MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: they also still use the old version. |
| kb9vqf | hmmm |
| kb9vqf | copy over their certs and forget about it :) |
| kb9vqf | and the generated headers |
| kb9vqf | (as long as they do not use Qt you should be fine) |
| MutantTurkey | okay I'll take you word for it. |
| MutantTurkey | I am not sure I am up to the tast |

| Raevyn | Hello :) So question for anyone really. I am using Firefox and find that if I use the QT theme buttons sometimes disappear until I hover over, then the reappear. The same thing happens with Openoffice. The workaround I discovered is to run them in gtk theme.. but now the desktop looks odd. Is there any fix for this? |
| MutantTurkey | Raevyn: hey :) |
| MutantTurkey | I have also just started seeing this problem with firefox, does it also occur in your tab field? mine happens in the tab area |
| Raevyn | Yea in the tabs :) |
| Raevyn | Though sometimes also in the addon bar below |
| MutantTurkey | would you mind filing a bug report? |
| MutantTurkey | http://bugs.trinitydesktop.org |
| Raevyn | sure! |
| MutantTurkey | It's not to hard, and the more info you include will make it easier to track down the problem |
| *** jentron has quit IRC |
| MutantTurkey | Raevyn: a screenshot of the suggested area could help, as well as what instances it occurs |
| *** jentron has joined #trinity-desktop |
| MutantTurkey | Raevyn: thanks :) |
| Raevyn | sure.. i will change the theme and do that |
| Raevyn | one moment.. i have a work call |

| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: just wondering, where are the bluetooth related apis that are broken? |
| kb9vqf | libbluez |
| MutantTurkey | ok |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: I mean is there existing code right now for it? |
| MutantTurkey | for trinity |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| kb9vqf | it's shut off though |
| kb9vqf | because of the API change |
| MutantTurkey | where is it? |
| kb9vqf | it's a kioslave somewhere |
| kb9vqf | grep for it |
| MutantTurkey | okay thanks :D |
| kb9vqf | np |
| MutantTurkey | not there :| |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: don't see it |
| kb9vqf | don't have time to help right now, but it is somewhere in the Trinity modules (could be kdeaddons for instance) |
| MutantTurkey | okay thanks |
| *** jmma has quit IRC |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: also another thing with display config, the config files I think are set to the wrong file permissions, should be readable by anyone, only editable by root. rihgt now I can only read as root |
| *** jentron has left #trinity-desktop |
| *** away_schreiberst is now known as schreiberstein |
| kb9vqf | it won't matter much as you have to be root to apply the display config |
| kb9vqf | BTW is the crash fixed? |
| MutantTurkey | about to check |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: but users may want to look at it... it's whatever just seems abnormal because ican view all my other /etc/ files as a regular user. |
| kb9vqf | I do understand and I'm not disagreeing :) |
| MutantTurkey | :) |
| MutantTurkey | okay plugging into my whole setup |
| * MutantTurkey has external mouse, keyboard, montor etc |
| *** schreiberstein is now known as away_schreiberst |
| MutantTurkey | okay it worked but the system is going a bit whavcky |
| MutantTurkey | X is at 99 percet usage. |
| MutantTurkey | gotta reboot |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: not good |
| kb9vqf | ? |
| *** MutantTurkey has quit IRC |
| *** MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: okay it definitely messed with my system. I think it was because I set the settings wrong, |
| kb9vqf | most likely |
| kb9vqf | you can most definitely crash buggy Xorg drivers by using RandR 1.3 features :) |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: no actually I think my system cannot handle it |
| MutantTurkey | possibility |
| kb9vqf | ? |
| kb9vqf | what exactly happens?? |
| * kb9vqf is somehow not surprised given that your number of attached monitors was changing spontaneously... |
| MutantTurkey | well now it works... |
| MutantTurkey | :D |
| MutantTurkey | I set it to a non native resolution by accident as well as did "extend" desktop |
| MutantTurkey | the resolutions were all weird and such |
| MutantTurkey | now I have set it to very standard settings and it is working 100% okay |
| MutantTurkey | that means it was probably my driver and display |
| MutantTurkey | not the program |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: though I do have a single gripe about the kcm control modules |
| MutantTurkey | they are not resizeable to a decent small size |
| kb9vqf | ? |
| MutantTurkey | on my laptop I have to scroll up and down to get stuff done :| |
| kb9vqf | ohhh.... |
| kb9vqf | yeah |
| kb9vqf | I noticed that too |
| MutantTurkey | it is a not good thing |
| kb9vqf | it's much, much worse under KDE4 |
| MutantTurkey | It goes against some specification I am sure |
| kb9vqf | actually not :-P |
| MutantTurkey | the one that says " all programs should be resizable under any space" |
| kb9vqf | try doing that to your Web browser |
| kb9vqf | you can't |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: there was some sort of design agreement, It may have beeen just within gnome though |
| kb9vqf | just within Gnome yes, but the easiest way to do that is to either 1) remove features or 2) make you wade through dozens of nested pages ala KDE4 |
| MutantTurkey | yeah |
| kb9vqf | so be careful what you ask for ;-) |
| MutantTurkey | I understand the problem |
| MutantTurkey | mostly it was a issue for me when programs forced thier size |
| MutantTurkey | this at least is an acceptable solution |
| kb9vqf | What is your screen resolution? |
| MutantTurkey | 1600x900 on desktop, it's good there. on my laptop screen it is 1366x768 |
| MutantTurkey | dinner bbs |
| kb9vqf | ah, so the minimum display should probably be 1024x768 |
| kb9vqf | on some systems this was handled with an "Advanced" button that would fold up little-used settings |
| kb9vqf | anyway, not something that can be tackled for 3.5.13, but something that should definitely have an "enhancement" bug report filed about |
| kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Overall what is your impression of the display configuration tool, now that it has stopped crashing? |
| kb9vqf | Also, the only-readable-as-root issue has been fixed in SVN revision 1257597. |
| MutantTurkey | It is excellent i would say |
| MutantTurkey | on par with the one available from Mac and windows |
| MutantTurkey | better than windows tbh |
| MutantTurkey | not sure if valid: could the displays in the dropbox use their titles? |
| MutantTurkey | as in COMPAQ 2009 and LVDS Lenovo Screen |
| MutantTurkey | even in brackets around it |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: HDMI Output on :0 (HP Display E400 23") |
| MutantTurkey | or some such |
| MutantTurkey | maybe to make it clearer |
| MutantTurkey | not necessary |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: also, the primary monitor should not be movable, because I can drag it around it makes it confusing |
| kb9vqf | it does reset after dragging, right? |
| MutantTurkey | I kept trying to reposition it on top of the other one, then realize I had to drag the other one back |
| kb9vqf | ah, ok |
| kb9vqf | good point |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: it resets, but if it was unmoveable it would be good |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| kb9vqf | glad it finally worked for you :) |
| kb9vqf | and I assume that automatic application of settings on startup also works properly? |
| MutantTurkey | Also I had an instance where the "Confirm DIsplay Settings" pops up behind my other windows |
| kb9vqf | BTW you will need to poke me later about the primary monitor movable issue |
| MutantTurkey | it needs to be on top no matter what. |
| kb9vqf | yeah, I saw that too |
| MutantTurkey | and yes it works, but if I restart and the primary monitor is gone, all hell will break loose I think |
| kb9vqf | how about you create an Etherpad real quick with any issues you find with the display config utility |
| MutantTurkey | okl |
| kb9vqf | well, no, it shouldn't |
| MutantTurkey | should there be some sort of fallback setting? |
| kb9vqf | in fact if it can't load the config it is supposed to reset to defaults |
| MutantTurkey | ok |
| MutantTurkey | good :) |
| kb9vqf | but please check it :) |
| MutantTurkey | we need to probably test this on more desktops as well? |
| kb9vqf | and also please do create the new Etherpad and put any and all issues with displayconfig in it |
| MutantTurkey | right now |
| MutantTurkey | doing it |
| kb9vqf | yep, testing on desktops would be good, I have done some of that |
| MutantTurkey | another thing, with the test settings button |
| MutantTurkey | it applys them permenantly yes |
| MutantTurkey | ? |
| *** KingSphinx has joined #trinity-desktop |
| MutantTurkey | nevermind |
| MutantTurkey | KingSphinx: o/ |
| kb9vqf | nope, test settings only loads the config temporarily |
| MutantTurkey | okay |
| KingSphinx | ? |
| kb9vqf | and does not save the settings to the global files |
| MutantTurkey | KingSphinx: hey (that little o/ is a guy waving his arm) |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: good good |
| KingSphinx | Oh, lol, didn't know. Also, decided to wait until 11.10 to reinstall Trinity seeing as it releases next week and all. |
| KingSphinx | Still a bit split about installing "stable" or nightlies, though I am starting to lean a bit towards nightlies... |
| kb9vqf | oneric needs to be built soon...grrr... |
| kb9vqf | and I have the certs to fix still :-P |
| kb9vqf | when it rains it pours! |
| MutantTurkey | KingSphinx: I am all about nightlies |
| MutantTurkey | I always trust upstream, they tend to know more about matters than I do in general |
| MutantTurkey | so nightlys, beta versions, all that good stuff, I love :D |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf:actually my alt tabbing isn't working... |
| MutantTurkey | wait nevermind... weird though |
| KingSphinx | What's new in the nightlies over 3.5.12? (Other than bugfixes and the like, as that's sort of obvious) |
| MutantTurkey | bug fixes, we have a new display configuration tool, conversion to cmake, more work on the Tqt end... |
| MutantTurkey | what else? |
| KingSphinx | Cmake conversion is complete? |
| MutantTurkey | We have converted the core of the desktop |
| MutantTurkey | kdelibs, kdebase etc |
| MutantTurkey | those were the things that were broken with automake |
| MutantTurkey | work is continuing on the other things |
| MutantTurkey | frankly CMake is so much less of a pain than automake |
| KingSphinx | Isn't Automake one of the reasons that KDE pretty much "started over" with 4.0? |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: ^ |
| MutantTurkey | They (along with numerous projects, actually TONS of them) have been switching away from automake, and other things like svn which many people see as outdated tools |
| KingSphinx | SVN's outdated? |
| MutantTurkey | we have ourselves been migrating certain things to our git |
| MutantTurkey | KingSphinx: not exactly |
| MutantTurkey | but there are other tools that can do the job better in some cases |
| MutantTurkey | that is the same with automake, it is continued to be developed, but many projects especially large ones are, are better suited with a modern make system |
| MutantTurkey | same idea |
| KingSphinx | Then again, I've only ever built two things from SVN (compiled E17 and GNUstep), so it's not much of a difference to me. |
| KingSphinx | That reminds me... is it possible to have E16 and E17 together on the same system? |
| MutantTurkey | yes I think so |
| MutantTurkey | I am not much of a E17 guy or E16 guy |
| MutantTurkey | but it was nice back in the day |
| KingSphinx | Eh, they're okay for what they are, but IMO, Fluxbox is a better WM than either version of E :P |
| KingSphinx | That said, I still love a full-featured DE over a minimalistic WM |
| MutantTurkey | KingSphinx: I like a really good DE, or a really minimal WM (scrotwm or dwm) |
| KingSphinx | Oh yeah! Apparently Fedora's default UUID has changed to 100 instead of 500 :D |
| MutantTurkey | why is that? |
| KingSphinx | *1000 |
| KingSphinx | forgot the third 0 |
| KingSphinx | It's to get in line with most of the other major distros, and it's a welcome relief, to say the least (permissions errors almost screwed over my first install of Trinity) |
| MutantTurkey | good then |
| KingSphinx | Are there still no plans for Red Hat/Fedora RPMs of Trinity? |
| MutantTurkey | I thought someone was working on that |
| KingSphinx | (the whole /opt debacle is why I switched back to Ubuntu) |
| MutantTurkey | We have redhat in our packaging tree |
| MutantTurkey | http://git.trinitydesktop.org/viewgit/index.php?a=tree&p=Trinity%20Desktop%20Environment%20Packaging&h=f589fa1aa996d6d3513b764e72ced1780478f11e&hb=68d1f8b3fcbf6dd815ad8b62485a981133bddbbf&f=redhat |
| MutantTurkey | looks fairly completed but I am not sure who is running it |
| MutantTurkey | alabator |
| MutantTurkey | is working onit |
| KingSphinx | I take it that the RHEL version won't install in /opt? Or will yum just throw a ton of crap, but allow it? |
| MutantTurkey | KingSphinx: I really don't know. I am not packaging it |
| MutantTurkey | you an email him though. |
| *** KingSphinx has quit IRC |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: somehow Xorg knows what the manufacturer is and such |
| MutantTurkey | I am not familiar with video interfaces |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: also, what about wayland? |
| MutantTurkey | nevermind that also |
| kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: yes, but Xorg does not export that information anywhere useful |
| kb9vqf | we could propose an XRandR-ish extension perhaps |
| kb9vqf | but it would probably be years before it trickled down to the distributions |
| kb9vqf | BTW main features of 3.5.12 are: lots of bugfixes, new displayconfig tool, secure attention key support, CMake conversion of core modules, and the fact that it builds on modern distributions :) |

| MutantTurkey | this is much better than NY |
| MutantTurkey | talks with the mayor went down, police are prepared, medicare is available. |
| MutantTurkey | nothing ridiculous |
| kb9vqf | just in general, remember that ACTA passed recently, and that even protesting DRM is becoming linked with "piracy" |
| MutantTurkey | mayor approved it basically by saying "these are issues that we need to talk about, and people are here to talk" |
| kb9vqf | that's good |
| MutantTurkey | isn't ACTA bad? |
| kb9vqf | bery |
| kb9vqf | *very |
| MutantTurkey | i only have heard of one song |
| MutantTurkey | http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=elUwRb4DroU |
| kb9vqf | it's more DMCA-style DRM |
| MutantTurkey | some guy rapping about it. |
| kb9vqf | ugh |
| kb9vqf | well, it was signed |
| MutantTurkey | well thats that |
| MutantTurkey | it actually doesn't matter. imho |
| MutantTurkey | laws can be set in stone and it won't matter. |
| kb9vqf | I've already given up on playing anything "copyrighted" on my computers anyway, excepting CDs |
| kb9vqf | or free OTA broadcasts (my favorite!) |
| kb9vqf | certainly won't pay for Windows to do that when I can get a set top box for cheaper, and stuff just works ;-) |
| MutantTurkey | I go with a lot of music from jamendo, or local artists |
| MutantTurkey | only a few big names I support |
| kb9vqf | their anti-piracy measures just make me not buy the disk (and therefore they lose money)--instead I just wait for it to air on TV for free :-) |
| kb9vqf | and if it doesn't air oh well |
| kb9vqf | I must be their worst nightmare of a customer :)) |
| MutantTurkey | all my musical preference is like big band and jazz and some new rock stuff, mostly I have it all on vinyl and CD's i have are few |
| kb9vqf | well, if a CD is available and I like it I buy it, as there is no reason not to |
| kb9vqf | CDs are not protected by DRM generally |
| MutantTurkey | except for that sony dealio |
| kb9vqf | and I like to encourage distribution in non-DRMed formats :) |
| kb9vqf | well, those I don't buy :-P |
| MutantTurkey | ogg is quite nice |
| kb9vqf | if it won't play in a regular CD player then I won't buy it |
| kb9vqf | besides, where I am at there is a good radio station so I get most of my listening enjoyment for free |

| kb9vqf | FM |
| kb9vqf | great sound quality |

| KingSphinx | Excuse me if I'm wrong, but technically, isn't ACTA unconstitutional? Treaties need to be ratified by two-thirds of the Senate, and IIRC, ACTA bypassed the Senate entirely. |
| kb9vqf | I'm not sure |
| kb9vqf | It would be interesting to see though |
| kb9vqf | the current administration usually finds excuses to justify its actions |
| kb9vqf | in my opinion the threshold for ratification of a treaty (of any type) should be as high or higher than a constitutional amendment |
| kb9vqf | as that is essentially what a treaty is in practive |
| kb9vqf | *practice |
| kb9vqf | but what do I know? ;-) |
| kb9vqf | IANAL |
| KingSphinx | That's what happens when stuff like this is kept secret for reasons of "national security." |
| KingSphinx | At least the EU had enough sense to not even consider signing it. |
| kb9vqf | so they did not sign at all?? |
| kb9vqf | that's good |
| kb9vqf | sometimes I wish I lived in Germany |
| kb9vqf | they have so many more digital rights than the United States does |
| kb9vqf | last I checked anyway :) |
| kb9vqf | oh well |
| kb9vqf | maybe sometime this stuff will be repealed |
| kb9vqf | after the average consumer starts paying $100 to watch one movie |
| kb9vqf | :-P |
| KingSphinx | Meh, I haven't gone to see a movie since The Last Airbender (it was terrible, but a fun waste of time) |
| kb9vqf | well, we're hardly average |
| kb9vqf | I mean the Jobs-worshipping Apple crowd ;-) |

| kb9vqf | Xu_R: Feel like working on a nice fat bug? |
| kb9vqf | But 521 |
| kb9vqf | Bug 521 |
| tbottu | 04Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=521 normal, P5, ---, anixxsus, NEW, Trinity networking breaks with network-manager 0.9 |
| kb9vqf | would be nice if that could be fixed in the next week or so |
| * kb9vqf would prefer to ship 3.5.13 working with nm-0.9 |
| Qu4Z | Is 3.5.13 shipping soon? :) |
| Qu4Z | I keep meaning to actually contribute to development, but I'm pretty busy at the moment. |
| Xu_R | sure, if I have time this weekend (I hope...) |
| Xu_R | wait |
| Xu_R | didn't she send a patch to the list |
| Xu_R | that you committed? |
| Xu_R | *he |
| kb9vqf | Xu_R: The patch only fixed compilation |
| kb9vqf | knetworkmanager doesn't work properly under NM API .09 |
| kb9vqf | primarily because nm API 0.9 dropped the settings DBUS service (surprise surprise) |
| kb9vqf | they now have something called a "secret agent" service that stores the settings instead |
| * kb9vqf thinks it's pretty tacky :) |
| kb9vqf | Qu4Z: It *should* ship somewhere around the beginning of November |
| kb9vqf | barring any showstopper bugs (e.g. if it won't compile under Oneric, etc.) |

| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | Xu_R: You will want to reference this: http://projects.gnome.org/NetworkManager/developers/api/09/ref-migrating.html |
| Xu_R | kk |
| kb9vqf | It looks like a real mess to be honest |
| kb9vqf | Xu_R: Read the section "Elimination of the User Settings Service" for what needs to be changed |
| kb9vqf | Also please note that in the Trinity source there are #defines that are set based on the NM API version |
| kb9vqf | so when patching please keep any NM 0.9 changes in a #ifdef / #else / #endif block |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| kb9vqf | Gnome tends to really foul things up...something as critical as network-manager should be under the control of a project that doesn't continually try to over-simplify things |
| kb9vqf | oh well |
| Xu_R | ok |
| Xu_R | you know what? it's friday. let me do it now before I head for a much needed nap |
| kb9vqf | and remember as well that the release is coming up very soon |
| kb9vqf | so the changes need to be in SVN probably in the next few days :- |
| Xu_R | yup... |
| * Xu_R looks at all the deadlines he has too >>; |

| kb9vqf | please elaborate |
| * kb9vqf thinks we might miss the Nov. release date :((( |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: there is a (nother mayber) window |
| MutantTurkey | after I repoen from sleep, I logged in |
| MutantTurkey | but there was still the window |
| MutantTurkey | I sent s scrot |
| MutantTurkey | I dunno if its the same or more than one was spawned |
| kb9vqf | only after suspend, correct? |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: yes |
| MutantTurkey | thats the only time i do it though |
| MutantTurkey | let me get you a picture |
| MutantTurkey | http://imagebin.org/177901 |
| kb9vqf | oh fun |
| kb9vqf | I take it you can interact with your desktop session? |
| kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Can you interact with your desktop session after your first login attempt? |
| kb9vqf | when the screen locker is running normally it should latch on to all X11 input and prevent you from clicking on windows or typing things |
| *** MutantTurkey has quit IRC |
| kb9vqf | I want to verify that you can't interact with your desktop BEFORE your first login attempt, but that you can AFTER you enter your password once |
| kb9vqf | That will help me nail down the exact cause of the glitch |
| *** jmma has joined #trinity-desktop |
| kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: (for the channel log in case you read it): I suspect that kdesktop_lock is not able to close all of its windows, even though it has shut down the root backing window and released the Xorg input lock |
| kb9vqf | but I need you to confirm that the latter two actions have already occurred after you log in onice |

| kb9vqf | Xu_R: What's the verdict on the knetworkmanager fixes? |
| Xu_R | I'm seeing only a lof of org.freedesktop.NetworkManagerUserSettings... |
| Xu_R | I'm trying to figure out what NM_DBUS_SERVICE is doing in KNetworkManager |
| kb9vqf | Probably not much |
| kb9vqf | and yes there are a lot of interfaces to NetworkManagerUserSettings |
| kb9vqf | because for all of network-manager's life until 0.9 that was the "preferred way" to interface to it |
| kb9vqf | :-P |
| Xu_R | xD |
| kb9vqf | @#!$ Gnome people |
| Xu_R | according to this |
| Xu_R | all that is needed is to change that to org.freedesktop.NetworkManager |
| kb9vqf | try it if you want |
| Xu_R | "and update the D-Bus interface that codes uses to talk to the settings service to org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.Settings." |
| kb9vqf | I don't know if that works for secrets |
| Xu_R | second part not so sure XD |
| kb9vqf | (i.e. passwords) |
| kb9vqf | can you try it? |
| Xu_R | sure |
| kb9vqf | i.e. do you have nm 0.9 on one of your machines ? |
| Xu_R | no. |
| kb9vqf | hmmm |
| kb9vqf | that makes things more difficult |
| Xu_R | :-\ |
| Xu_R | i'm seeing if I can fire up an openSUSE factory with NM 0.9 right now... |
| kb9vqf | Xu_R: And I don't think it's quite that simple either |
| Xu_R | never is... |
| kb9vqf | storing secrets or user-level connection information system-wide is a Bad IDea |
| kb9vqf | so you'd have to figure out the new permissions API |
| Xu_R | hmm... |
| Xu_R | they do this with user secret agents... |
| Xu_R | "The agent should export the org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.SecretAgent D-Bus interface, but should NOT claim a bus name on the system or session bus." |
| kb9vqf | That *might* directly replace the user settings service, but I'm not 100% sure |
| kb9vqf | I have never been that good with DBUS :-P |
| Xu_R | according to this... it does. |
| kb9vqf | see what you can do to make it work |
| Xu_R | kk |
| kb9vqf | I'm just looking for wireless connections, wired connections to work at this point |
| Xu_R | how would I export the org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.SecretAgent DBus interface?... |
| kb9vqf | I don't know |
| kb9vqf | Xu_R: How is knetworkmanager designed? |
| kb9vqf | i.e. |
| kb9vqf | does it export a user sessions service? |
| Xu_R | don't think so... |
| kb9vqf | or does it connect to a user settings service that network-manager exports?? |
| Xu_R | I think it connects to a user settings service that networkmanager exports |
| kb9vqf | if the latter, then you need to use the system-wide configuration service and set the permissions keys |
| * kb9vqf can't type today |
| Xu_R | hmm... |
| Xu_R | like, it's calling NM_DBUS_SERVICE and such but I can't figure out where that's coming from... |
| kb9vqf | it's a define in the network-manager headers |
| Xu_R | oic |
| kb9vqf | all of the DBUS service names are available in the network-manager headers as #defines |
| Xu_R | o. |
| kb9vqf | It might help to draw a diagram of all data flow and data repositories that were present in the knetworkmanager <--> nm 0.8 system |
| kb9vqf | then remove the user settings service and see what data flows are left dangling |
| kb9vqf | Xu_R: You will need to implement the secret agent bit for VPNs to work |
| kb9vqf | so I would start working on that first |
| Xu_R | I think you need to implement it app-wide |
| kb9vqf | yes, that is true |
| Xu_R | for the whole thing to work... |
| Xu_R | btw, you know cmake doesn't build the VPN bits, right? |
| kb9vqf | basically a new C++ file to provide a storage daemon for settings |
| kb9vqf | well I build it with Automake |
| Xu_R | oic. |
| kb9vqf | because of that :) |
| Xu_R | Well, I could just call a register object whenever the application is started... |
| Xu_R | it would automatically unregister itself when the application closes... |
| kb9vqf | if that will work then do it |
| kb9vqf | but something needs to monitor incoming requests on that interface |
| kb9vqf | as well as register with network-manager |
| kb9vqf | and we'll also need to store settings in some kind of backend servic |
| kb9vqf | *service |
| kb9vqf | that can be accessed from the secret-agent service |
| kb9vqf | ughh |
| kb9vqf | are you in over your head on this? |
| Xu_R | I think that shouldn't be an issue because org.freedesktop.NetworkManager works the same way as org.freedesktop.NetworkManagerUserSettings |
| Xu_R | and once the register object is called |
| Xu_R | nothing else should have to be done... |
| kb9vqf | I was reading that VPNs are broken unless the client provides the secret-agent service |
| kb9vqf | and possibly other connection types as well |
| Xu_R | well, IIRC the whole thing is broken without registering the secret-agent service :-\ |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| kb9vqf | so, can you give me a approximate timeline on this yet? |
| kb9vqf | i.e. if it's going to take you 2 years then there will be a big problem :) |
| Xu_R | XD |
| Xu_R | how about I try this register thing in knetworkmanager.cpp |
| Xu_R | throw you a patch |
| Xu_R | and have you inspect :P |
| Xu_R | like... in 15 minutes XD |
| kb9vqf | something tells me it won't work right :-P |
| kb9vqf | the API changes are quite extensiev |
| kb9vqf | *extensive |
| Xu_R | hehehe |
| kb9vqf | better yet, why don't you try it on your machine? |
| kb9vqf | I assume you have a wireless connection available? |
| Xu_R | there are new device states, new active connection states, and WiMAX support... xD |
| kb9vqf | yep, yep |
| Xu_R | I don't have linux on a laptop yet... xD |
| kb9vqf | the device states were handled |
| Xu_R | b/c I only have a desktop |
| kb9vqf | same with the connection states |
| Xu_R | my parents are using windows on laptops ._." |
| kb9vqf | ithe setting sservices are the problem now |
| kb9vqf | Xu_R: The comments here are interesting: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/commit/?h=f15&id=fd3c49224a20bf6e60b2ca10befc57c6b82b5a90 |
| kb9vqf | I wonder if it really is that simple |
| kb9vqf | with Gnome stuff usually isn't, but maybe in this case.... |
| * kb9vqf dreams |
| * Xu_R hopes |
| Xu_R | http://live.gnome.org/NetworkManager/ApiSimplify |
| Xu_R | did not know about GetSecrets and SetSecrets... oh dear. |
| kb9vqf | heh |
| kb9vqf | have fun! |
| Xu_R | this is why linux is still unpopular - we break so many APIs and ABIs that it pisses off developers |
| Xu_R | XD |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | I was just talking about that the other day |
| kb9vqf | the fact that Linux was percieved as stable and such for so long (pre-2007) was that the main APIs were basically untouchable and backwards-compatibile |
| kb9vqf | POSIX, Xorg, etc. |
| kb9vqf | now it's just a complete mess |
| Xu_R | and now enter this crap. |
| Xu_R | yup. |
| kb9vqf | everyone thinks they can break everything every year |
| kb9vqf | Even this project offers a backwards-compatible version |
| kb9vqf | i.e. we add stuff, sure, but we don't run around REMOVING stuff from our APIs |
| Xu_R | exactly. |
| Xu_R | only remove if it's like... what? 10 years old? ._. |
| Xu_R | and nobody uses it anymore XD |
| kb9vqf | that's the key right there |
| kb9vqf | we still have POSIX stuff in the kernel that has to be at least 30 years old |
| kb9vqf | still in use by millions of people :) |
| Xu_R | EXACTLY! |
| Xu_R | ok, I'm sending a message to the networkmanager ML... xD |
| kb9vqf | ?? |
| kb9vqf | so do you think you will be able to handle the knetworkmanager fixups? |
| * Xu_R is so confused by their API explaination |
| kb9vqf | ah, ok |
| Xu_R | ok, I sent a message. Hopefully I'll hear from them and they can explain... |
| kb9vqf | can you fix some of the other stuff (DBUS service names for the settings service for example) in the mean time? |
| kb9vqf | I'm going to attempt the promised rebuild for oneiric, but that could blow up completely and leave me fixing other bugs for a while |
| Xu_R | the DBUS service names are fixed |
| Xu_R | I'll look at the wimax stuff and maybe the states |

| kb9vqf | Xu_R: You should have asked me first before posting to the list ;-) |
| kb9vqf | I could have helped you with those questions |
| kb9vqf | All DBUS access under Trinity is handled via dbus-tqt |
| kb9vqf | it's an interface library |
| kb9vqf | look in knetworkmanager-connection_secrets_dbus.cpp |
| kb9vqf | that is what should possibly become the secret agent service |
| kb9vqf | and as far as the storage of settings I believe knetworkmanager still has to store the settings internally, and give them to network-manager upon request |

| kb9vqf | Xu_R: Any progress on knetworkmanager? |
| Xu_R | Figuring it out, yes |
| Xu_R | writing the code, somewhat ;) |
| kb9vqf | cool |
| kb9vqf | now for the 1,000,000₰ question: does it work? ;-) |
| Xu_R | ummm... |
| Xu_R | ummm... |
| Xu_R | *shifts eyes* maybe? |
| Xu_R | XD |
| kb9vqf | hehe |
| kb9vqf | I'll wait for a working version :) |
| Xu_R | I'll get it to you hopefully by the middle of the week. |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | while you've been busy with that TDE has grown another little package |
| kb9vqf | avahi-tqt |
| kb9vqf | as Ubuntu completely dropped Qt3 in oneiric |
| Xu_R | oic... so this is another dependency then? |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | IMHO this is actually a good thing |
| kb9vqf | as now we can move to the TQt namespace with almost no chance of breaking something |
| kb9vqf | (except kdebindings, but that's its own special problem) |
| Xu_R | :D |
| kb9vqf | looking forward to having a working knetworkmanager...thanks for working on it! :) |
| Xu_R | ok |
| Xu_R | np |
| Xu_R | hopefully it'll take some workload off the bug problems... |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| Xu_R | ok, ima bbl. parents want me to do something for them |
| Xu_R | ttyl |
| kb9vqf | sure |
| kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: I think I fixed the problem with suspend/hibernate in SVN a few days ago |
| kb9vqf | binaries should be built shortly |
| kb9vqf | it actually isn |
| kb9vqf | *isn't a problem with the desktop lock AFAICT |
| kb9vqf | it was an issue in the smserver |
| kb9vqf | but I'll wait for you to test it after the binaries are built before I claim it's fixed for sure :) |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: okay awesome! |
| kb9vqf | binaries could be a few days as I'm trying to get Oneiric to build now |
| MutantTurkey | any problems with oneiric? |
| kb9vqf | so far I've had to move yet another Qt3 interface (for Avahi) to TQt |
| kb9vqf | not sure what else needs to be done yet |
| kb9vqf | There is the problem with network-manager API 0.9 that Xu_R is working ojn |
| kb9vqf | *on |
| MutantTurkey | I have tons of issues with gtk |
| MutantTurkey | on here |
| MutantTurkey | tons |
| MutantTurkey | everything crashes but I don't know where to start |
| MutantTurkey | we have some sort of wrappe rright? |
| kb9vqf | yes we do |
| kb9vqf | kgtk-qt3-kde3 |
| kb9vqf | err...new name is kgtk-qt3-trinity |
| * kb9vqf still hasn't updated his workstation |
| kb9vqf | is it installed on your machine? |
| kb9vqf | and please be more specific than "everything crashes" :) |
| MutantTurkey | firefox displays icorrectly, geany and transmission also crash seemingly randomly |
| MutantTurkey | possible over column and tree areas |
| MutantTurkey | those are the only gtk apps I use so I dunno what else |
| MutantTurkey | gotta shower and stuff, I'll bbs |
| kb9vqf | ok, can you give me any backtraces? |
| kb9vqf | firefox 4 has known graphical issues, even outside of Trinity |
| kb9vqf | an upgrade to Firefox 5 fixed most of them for m |
| kb9vqf | *me |
| kb9vqf | Firefox |
| kb9vqf | grr |
| kb9vqf | Firefox has poor quality control lately |
| MutantTurkey | yes |
| MutantTurkey | I dont really like the new release model |
| MutantTurkey | what I like is LIBRE office |
| MutantTurkey | they have also a time release |
| MutantTurkey | but they continue to send fixes back to the previous version |
| MutantTurkey | it's just designed better |
| MutantTurkey | frankly I don't like chromes method either |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: firefox 5? firefox 7 is out... |
| kb9vqf | hehe |
| kb9vqf | I don't run bleeding edge |
| kb9vqf | I have a business to run here |
| kb9vqf | and can't afford to be fighting with a flaky computer all the time |
| MutantTurkey | yeah |
| MutantTurkey | what do you do business wise |
| MutantTurkey | ? |
| kb9vqf | s/a flaky computer/lots of flaky computers/g |
| kb9vqf | engineering |
| MutantTurkey | I was thinking about going to school for engineering. |
| kb9vqf | if you are good at mathematics, problem solving, etc. then go for it :) |
| MutantTurkey | yeah problem solving is a strength. Math I am fine at, I see it more as a process so I think logically in steps for it |
| kb9vqf | you will use it as a tool in engineering |
| MutantTurkey | it's that or becoming a history or math teacher or computer science degree, or music |
| MutantTurkey | so I am at sort of a crossroads coming up |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | I wish you luck on the decision :) |
| MutantTurkey | the worst part is that I want to do all of them! |
| MutantTurkey | of course computers has always been my sideline hobby, so I think i might just start a linux club at school or something |
| kb9vqf | pick some as hobbies, and pick the one that you still want to do even when you are having a rotten day as your primary focus |
| kb9vqf | that's my best advice |
| kb9vqf | because there will be days when you don't even want to get up and face your job |
| MutantTurkey | right, you need to be able to go in on a crappy day |
| MutantTurkey | teaching is full of those days, my mums a teach so I sort of get the routine |
| MutantTurkey | mostly I am interested in administration |
| kb9vqf | comp sci might be up your alley then |
| MutantTurkey | as for computer science, same deal. I would rather be a project manager, keep the ball rolling, instead of being an actaul coder |
| kb9vqf | right |
| kb9vqf | everyone starts as a coder though |
| MutantTurkey | ye |
| kb9vqf | otherwise they will make terrible managerws |
| kb9vqf | *managers |
| MutantTurkey | my uncle started at microsoft in the 80's |
| MutantTurkey | he retired at 30 |
| kb9vqf | forced retirement or a good one? |
| MutantTurkey | now he works for 6 months and goes on exotic vacations the other six months |
| kb9vqf | good I take it :) |
| MutantTurkey | very good |
| MutantTurkey | except he sort of got bored and depressed so he had to go back to work |
| kb9vqf | yes, I would expect that |
| kb9vqf | those opportunites don't really exist anywhere any more |
| kb9vqf | computers are ubiquitous |
| MutantTurkey | but I am looking longterm, teaching is a great way to keep moving up but have a stable retirement plan etc |
| kb9vqf | but can you deal with a constant stream of students who don't want to learn? |
| kb9vqf | some people can and others get fed up and become jaded, lousy instructors |
| MutantTurkey | I think so, I mean I quit high school and went to community college |
| kb9vqf | just something to think about :) |
| MutantTurkey | right, devils advocate is always your best advocate |
| MutantTurkey | but with history, it's actually more of a human studies class, incorportaing history but relating it to modern day, economics, teaching about the goverment, political parties |
| MutantTurkey | I am pretty intersted in all of that |
| kb9vqf | can't help too much there; I do keep tabs on politics but more from the long view; i.e. how current civilizations compare to ancient ones and attempting to predict outcomes of current actions, etc. |
| kb9vqf | based on historical evidence |
| MutantTurkey | yes |
| MutantTurkey | exactly what they are focusing on |
| MutantTurkey | "thematic approach vs hard numbers |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| MutantTurkey | it doesn't matter when jefferson was alive, rather what he said |
| kb9vqf | so you would be looking at more of a collegiate position? |
| MutantTurkey | Depends if i get my masters |
| MutantTurkey | I could have my masters at 21 though so I might just do it |
| kb9vqf | well, I need to get going, but if you run into more GTK apps crashing please grab backtraces |
| kb9vqf | and I wish you luck on your decision :) |
| kb9vqf | the backtraces will indicate if Trinity is even involved in causing the crash |
| kb9vqf | remember a lot of people don't know how to program these days and the application itself could be inherently unstable... |
| kb9vqf | *GTK application |
| MutantTurkey | It is trinity |
| MutantTurkey | i am almost sure |
| MutantTurkey | because it is twice happening in the same type of graphical area |
| kb9vqf | ok...backtrace into bug report if you are sure |
| MutantTurkey | I'll send you some backtraces |
| MutantTurkey | I don't really follow them to well |
| kb9vqf | post them in a bug report |
| kb9vqf | with 3.5.13 release coming up they may not be looked at until after the move to GIT |
| MutantTurkey | yes it was trinity |
| kb9vqf | also make sure that your debugging symbols are installed |
| MutantTurkey | for gtk? |
| MutantTurkey | i have kdelibs-dbg installed |
| kb9vqf | kdebase-trinity-dbg at a minimum |
| kb9vqf | gtk debug symbols for the app in question would also help |
| kb9vqf | then let it crash again and regrab the backtrace |
| MutantTurkey | okay |
| MutantTurkey | gdb APP, run, bt |
| MutantTurkey | yes? |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | bt is typed after the segfault shows up |
| kb9vqf | or SIGABORT, or whatever the error is |
| kb9vqf | and the please put it in a new bug report with detailed information (and possibly screenshots of the affected area) |
| MutantTurkey | yes |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: as I thought, It's the overlay scrollbar i think |
| MutantTurkey | not sure though, but those areas seem affected |

| MutantTurkey | woot woot |
| kb9vqf | Got bugs? Get Orkin |
| kb9vqf | Or the Trinity devs ;-) |
| kb9vqf | Here's hoping kgtk is fixed up nicely--if so, we now have something else KDE4 doesn't :) |
| kb9vqf | namely nice open/save dialogs for a wide variety of GTK apps |
| kb9vqf | IIRC the KDE4 code that serves a similar purpose has not been touched in years |
| kb9vqf | and was based on the code that is in Trinity SVN |
| kb9vqf | so it should fail with Chrome, etc. |
| MutantTurkey | yeah |
| MutantTurkey | the geany dialogs don't work either |
| kb9vqf | fixes are in SVN as of a few minutes ago |
| kb9vqf | that was one of the first things I fixed :) |
| MutantTurkey | oh boy |
| MutantTurkey | dude you are on a roll |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: do you think we can do .13 on time? |
| kb9vqf | depends on Xu_R |
| kb9vqf | and his knetworkmanager fixes |
| Xu_R | (and packaging, don't forget that DX) |
| MutantTurkey | Xu_R: get choo butt into gear fool! |
| Xu_R | although the packaging can hold out for a little longer past .13 |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: are we going to do bugfix releases after that? I was meditating on it quite a bit |
| MutantTurkey | you know 3.5.13.1 3.5.13.2 etc, |
| kb9vqf | hmmm |
| kb9vqf | depends on donations |
| kb9vqf | so if you want to see them get some donations coming in ;-) |
| kb9vqf | you know, fundraise a bit |
| kb9vqf | the problem is that each . release sucks down developer time and build farm resources |
| kb9vqf | now that I am building for 6 distributions on 2 architectures (which may increase to 3 architectures by 3.5.14) you can see that each release will use a LOT of resources |
| kb9vqf | frankly I can't afford that right now |
| kb9vqf | then there's the whole infrastructure for cherry picking patches |
| kb9vqf | which goes back to developer time |
| kb9vqf | you can't autogenerate a release |
| kb9vqf | it's not like the nightly builds |
| kb9vqf | even the nightly builds only rebuild the changed component(s) |
| MutantTurkey | okay |
| kb9vqf | sorry :) |
| MutantTurkey | fair enough |
| MutantTurkey | no reason to be sorry, maybe we need to make it more publicly clear that we have Nightly builds and we have stable release |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | IMHO that's enough |
| MutantTurkey | thats good for me |
| MutantTurkey | we need to make that clear then |

| *** MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: okay I've finally figured out how to make legit backtraces. I've found the problem with geany I think, at least tracked it al lthe way back |
| MutantTurkey | it's the qt engine |
| kb9vqf | post the complete backtrace to your bug report |
| kb9vqf | along with how to crash it so that I can test the fix(es) |
| MutantTurkey | it's hard to reproduce. |
| MutantTurkey | basically when you have a C file loaded, the side bar with the function list loaded up, and you resize it, sometimes it crashs, and sometimes when you just hover the area |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | mention that in the bug report |
| MutantTurkey | literally to get it to crash I just dragged it randomly for a good 30 seconds |
| kb9vqf | and post the new backtrace :) |
| MutantTurkey | ok |
| MutantTurkey | uploaded new backtrace |
| *** MutantTurkey is now known as MutantTurkeyX |
| MutantTurkeyX | Xu_R: yo doode |
| MutantTurkeyX | kb9vqf: another idea for the bug tracker, should have an "Applications" Component? because we have plenty of apps in that dir and many of them don't fit under the other categories |
| kb9vqf | non-core applications |
| MutantTurkeyX | do you like that idea? |
| kb9vqf | right now I am very concerned about oneiric |
| kb9vqf | looks like Automake changed |
| kb9vqf | and now each package I have tried is failing to build due to stupid little problems |
| MutantTurkeyX | automake changed again? |
| MutantTurkeyX | :| |
| MutantTurkeyX | I don't understand their motivation with breaking backward compat all the time |
| kb9vqf | it seems that all the libraries are not being passed to the linker |
| kb9vqf | e.g. lots of this |
| kb9vqf | /usr/bin/ld: contactlist/.libs/libkopetecontactlist.a(kopetemetacontactlvi.o): undefined reference to symbol 'KImageEffect::toGray(QImage&, bool)' |
| kb9vqf | /usr/bin/ld: note: 'KImageEffect::toGray(QImage&, bool)' is defined in DSO /opt/trinity/lib/libkdefx.so so try adding it to the linker command line |
| kb9vqf | /opt/trinity/lib/libkdefx.so: could not read symbols: Invalid operation |
| kb9vqf | if each package has to be fixed the next release will be 6 months from now |
| MutantTurkeyX | did their method for linking libraries change? |
| kb9vqf | I have no idea |
| MutantTurkeyX | what version of automake is it? |
| kb9vqf | some stuff also broke in CMake |
| MutantTurkeyX | hmmm |
| kb9vqf | 1:1.11.1-1ubuntu1 |
| MutantTurkeyX | yeah |
| MutantTurkeyX | Automake 1.11 fails to work in a number of situations that Automake 1.4, 1.6, 1.7, 1.8, 1.9 and 1.10 did, so has been renamed so that the previous version can continue to be made available. |
| MutantTurkeyX | https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/oneiric/+package/automake |
| kb9vqf | can I see the bug report on the failures? |
| kb9vqf | i.e. should I bother working around them? |
| kb9vqf | remember this release needs to work for about a year |
| MutantTurkeyX | right |
| MutantTurkeyX | does oneiric provide older versions of automake? |
| kb9vqf | on systems such as Gentoo who wil have newer versions of things... |
| kb9vqf | yes, but see above :) |
| MutantTurkeyX | or arch. :| |
| MutantTurkeyX | right |
| MutantTurkeyX | what broke in cmake? was it linker related? |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| MutantTurkeyX | maybe ubuntu changed their method then. |
| MutantTurkeyX | if they are both related. |
| kb9vqf | I have no idea |
| kb9vqf | it was just one library that failed to link to another shared library from a different directory |
| kb9vqf | under CMake |
| kb9vqf | could have been a bug for all I know |
| kb9vqf | I hardcoded the linker flag and all is well |
| MutantTurkeyX | okay |
| MutantTurkeyX | here is another thing I see |
| MutantTurkeyX | do you have binutils-gold installed? |
| MutantTurkeyX | on oneiric |
| MutantTurkeyX | "Gold is a new linker, still in development, which is faster than the current linker included in binutils. It currently fails to link some applications and libraries" |
| kb9vqf | nope |
| MutantTurkeyX | hmmm |
| kb9vqf | automake isn't passing all the linker flags that it used to when all_libraries is used |
| kb9vqf | $(all_libraries) |
| kb9vqf | I ran into this a while back in koffice |
| kb9vqf | it seems that every new release of automake forces me to hardcode more linker flags |
| kb9vqf | on one hand that isn't a bad thing |
| MutantTurkeyX | :| |
| MutantTurkeyX | hardcoding rather than dynamic? |
| kb9vqf | in fact the original automake files could be broken for all I know |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| MutantTurkeyX | okay |
| MutantTurkeyX | well shucks. |
| kb9vqf | the problem is the amount of time this usually takes |
| kb9vqf | (to fix) |
| MutantTurkeyX | right |
| MutantTurkeyX | a lot of manual editing of alot of files |
| MutantTurkeyX | I've gotta run to macroeconomics class, but I'll be on in 20 once i settle in and boot up my lappy |
| MutantTurkeyX | gl |
| kb9vqf | interestingly all of the failures so far have been on linking executables |
| kb9vqf | not shared objects |
| *** MutantTurkeyX has quit IRC |
| *** MutantTurkeyX has joined #trinity-desktop |
| MutantTurkeyX | did they change the library paths again or something? |
| MutantTurkeyX | kb9vqf: I am just looking around, but is it the order in which the links are being passed from gcc? apparently the libs now have to be at the end of your gcc command:: gcc file.c -o file.o -lib |
| *** MutantTurkeyX is now known as MobileTurkey |
| kb9vqf | MobileTurkey: you might be right! |
| kb9vqf | where did you find that info? |
| MobileTurkey | google |
| MobileTurkey | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1853881 |
| kb9vqf | when did it change? |
| MobileTurkey | well it's ben like that. but apparently its now forced |
| MobileTurkey | also, I don't know how I just went "away" |
| kb9vqf | oh yuck |
| kb9vqf | ick ick ick |
| MobileTurkey | ? |
| kb9vqf | the change :-P |
| MobileTurkey | yea |
| kb9vqf | of all the stupid dumb inbicilic things to break software compilation over |
| MobileTurkey | if thats it, it's bad but not terrible |
| MobileTurkey | because apparently everyone is switching to that. |
| kb9vqf | it means I have to dig around in an automake file now |
| MobileTurkey | but I don't see why it's nessecary |
| kb9vqf | a huge one |
| kb9vqf | and try to figure out where to switch the linker flag order |
| MobileTurkey | the big kahuna |
| MobileTurkey | the automake files to end all automake files |
| kb9vqf | it gets worse |
| kb9vqf | it isn't ONLY the linker flag order |
| kb9vqf | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NattyNarwhal/ToolchainTransition |
| MobileTurkey | god damnit |
| kb9vqf | basically that says I have to add every stupid library |
| kb9vqf | to the linker flags |
| kb9vqf | this could take a while |
| MobileTurkey | well at least there are some docs |
| kb9vqf | yes, and there are 3GB of source code waiting to be picked through |
| kb9vqf | at one package per day it will take around 100 days |
| kb9vqf | so at least three months |
| kb9vqf | unless other packages are built better |
| kb9vqf | so...do I release now and push out a .14 and .15 update before 3.6? |
| kb9vqf | (that could get ugly) |
| kb9vqf | or do we wait and have yet another stupid distro decision cause even more problems? |
| MobileTurkey | hmmm |
| MobileTurkey | I don't see a reason why we need to be on ubuntus schedule |
| MobileTurkey | frankly I think a 6 month schedule is terrible for ubuntu and causes a ton of issues |
| MobileTurkey | I mean without worrying about ubuntu's release, we can open more time to fix bugs. |
| kb9vqf | yes, but Trinity will look more outdated if it is always available for the current Ubuntu release - 1 |
| kb9vqf | as in it won't build on new distributions |
| kb9vqf | users don't care about distributons breaking things |
| kb9vqf | they only notice "hey, that software doesn't work with my Ubuntu! Time to try KDE4..." |
| MobileTurkey | right |
| MobileTurkey | good point |
| MobileTurkey | so can we automate this at all? |
| kb9vqf | nope |
| kb9vqf | the original people who wrote the Makefile.am files did so under the assumption that indirect linking was valid |
| kb9vqf | as it had been for decades |
| kb9vqf | the only way to fix this is to compile each package, note the failure(s), fix them, recompile, fix the next set of errors, wash, rinse, repeat, go insane |
| kb9vqf | A lot of other people are steamed as well: http://old.nabble.com/DSO-linking-changes-for-wheezy-td30086040.html |

| schreiberstein | MutantTurkey: in which grade? |
| *** MutantTurkey has quit IRC |
| *** MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop |
| schreiberstein | MutantTurkey: WB! |
| MutantTurkey | haha |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: okay so the code you told me to paste in actually makes it crash too, because I commented out the function and it still crashed, then i commented out the function and the printf and it doesn't crash now. |
| MutantTurkey | so ? |
| kb9vqf | what was the output? |
| kb9vqf | I asked you to run it in the termina |
| kb9vqf | there should have been a series of numbers printed right before the crash |
| MutantTurkey | nope |
| MutantTurkey | because the printf function was crashing i wasn't getting anything |
| kb9vqf | uhh...then you have some serious memory corruption there |
| MutantTurkey | wait seriously? |
| MutantTurkey | :| |
| kb9vqf | try printing each of the requested values on its own line with its own printf statement |
| MutantTurkey | ok |
| MutantTurkey | good call |
| MutantTurkey | I mean there were warnings when that compiled.... |
| MutantTurkey | ive been doing htis all in gdb |
| kb9vqf | that's fine |
| kb9vqf | what were the warnings? |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: just like floats cast as doubles etc |
| kb9vqf | ah |
| kb9vqf | well, ignore 'em for now |
| kb9vqf | see which printf crashes |
| MutantTurkey | okay trying now |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: it seems to go through twice then crash |
| MutantTurkey | http://pastebin.com/KvrFkPhS |
| MutantTurkey | weird |
| kb9vqf | does it always crash before it can print "widget state"? |
| * kb9vqf may have an idea here |
| MutantTurkey | it never can print the widget state |
| MutantTurkey | it always says "(nil)" |
| MutantTurkey | okay class is over, gotta move downstairs |
| MutantTurkey | bbs |
| kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: What I mean is that it can't even print the text "widget state" |
| kb9vqf | before crashing |
| kb9vqf | I think I know what might be causing that |
| kb9vqf | poke me when you are bavk |
| kb9vqf | *back |
| *** MutantTurkey has quit IRC |
| *** schreiberstein has quit IRC |
| *** MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: sorry got held up. you said you might have an idea? |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| MutantTurkey | ok I am all ears |
| *** schreiberstein has joined #trinity-desktop |
| kb9vqf | you will notice that the printf for "widget state" actually has a function as its parameter |
| kb9vqf | right before that printf put another printf with the parameter of that function and a %p as the format designator |
| MutantTurkey | so the erro ris the printer state |
| MutantTurkey | or the widget state rather |
| kb9vqf | I think the widget state printer might be invalid |
| kb9vqf | just a hunch |
| kb9vqf | *pointer |
| MutantTurkey | 489 printf("widget state: %p\n", GTK_WIDGET_STATE(parent)); |
| MutantTurkey | yes i think it is |
| MutantTurkey | let me check the warnings |
| MutantTurkey | http://pastebin.com/9LMDeDzh |
| *** K`zan has joined #trinity-desktop |
| *** Z_God has joined #trinity-desktop |
| kb9vqf | ah, OK |
| kb9vqf | I don't have the source in front of me ATK |
| kb9vqf | ATM |
| MutantTurkey | okay |
| MutantTurkey | I do |
| kb9vqf | so print out the pointer to parent for me |
| kb9vqf | before you print out the GTK_WIDGET_STATE(parent) vaule |
| kb9vqf | *pointer value |
| kb9vqf | It's probably crashing in GTK_WIDGET_STATE |
| kb9vqf | but I don't know who provides that macro |
| MutantTurkey | GTK_WIDGET_STATE is deprecated |
| MutantTurkey | now there is gtk_get_widget_state which returns the enum GtkWidgetState |
| kb9vqf | a function instead of a macro? |
| kb9vqf | sounds good to me :) |
| MutantTurkey | or GtkStateType i think |
| kb9vqf | what happens if you replace GTK_WIDGET_STATE with gtk_get_widget_state? |
| MutantTurkey | well i think it should work... |
| kb9vqf | or whatever the replacement is? |
| kb9vqf | try it :) |
| kb9vqf | remember I can't crash it here |
| MutantTurkey | because the draw_arrow function returns that enum |
| MutantTurkey | okay |
| MutantTurkey | which is weird |
| MutantTurkey | but it keeps happening to me and it's reproducable |
| kb9vqf | I'm on maverick |
| kb9vqf | it is quite possible that something changed in Natty |
| MutantTurkey | ah |
| kb9vqf | in GTK that is |
| MutantTurkey | forgot my glasses today = can't see anything |
| *** MutantTurkey has quit IRC |
| *** MobileTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop |
| MobileTurkey | yeah that might have just done the trick |
| MobileTurkey | in fact I am certain it was |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | send a patch to the bug report? |
| kb9vqf | also, when was the replacement function introduced? |
| * kb9vqf needs to know so that he doesn't break the Lucid builds |
| kb9vqf | if it was a few years ago then there won't be any problems :) |
| kb9vqf | BTW this DSO linking stuff is actually making me link MORE libraries against each executable than Automake would normally :-P |
| kb9vqf | because there is no way I am going to sit there and guess what libraries are actually needed for each and every linked object |
| kb9vqf | instead there is a standard set of Qt/kdecode/kdeui/kdefx/kio that I am applying to each failing object |
| kb9vqf | oh well |
| kb9vqf | people don't think about all of the consequences when they set policy |
| MobileTurkey | I mean isn't gtk2 deprecated anyway? |
| MobileTurkey | since version 2.20 |
| MobileTurkey | march 23 2010 |
| MobileTurkey | was when that was release |
| kb9vqf | hmm |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | well, I'll try it |
| MobileTurkey | wawnt me to send a patch? |
| kb9vqf | it *might* be in lucid |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | please send the patch to the bug report |
| MobileTurkey | also wasn't bonobo deprecated? |
| kb9vqf | no idea |
| kb9vqf | what is it? |
| MobileTurkey | okay |
| MobileTurkey | not sure |
| MobileTurkey | it was part of the gtk/gnome library hell |
| MobileTurkey | anyway I'll send a patch |
| kb9vqf | thanks |
| kb9vqf | there is one nice thing that is now enabled by default |
| *** jmma has joined #trinity-desktop |

| MobileTurkey | kb9vqf: also fixing up the other warnings |
| MobileTurkey | kb9vqf: also fixing up the other warnings |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | sounds good |
| MobileTurkey | I keep seeing this one alot with printf |
| MobileTurkey | things get formated with a %d but they are doubles |
| MobileTurkey | but I dont think printf has a way to show doubles as a double |
| kb9vqf | double needs to be %f |
| MobileTurkey | isn't a double some sort of floating? |
| MobileTurkey | okay |
| MobileTurkey | thanks :) |
| * kb9vqf would hate to see an ImmobileTurkey :-P |
| kb9vqf | unless it's Thanksgiving |
| MobileTurkey | actually, that's the constant joke in my local channel |
| MobileTurkey | thanksgiving is a time of much ridicule |
| kb9vqf | hehe |
| kb9vqf | sorry...couldn't resist when you tacked on Mobile instead of Mutant ;-) |
| MobileTurkey | actually it's cast as a type double (*)(double) |
| kb9vqf | what line @? |
| kb9vqf | line # rather |
| MobileTurkey | so i get: the format ‘%f’ expects type ‘double’, but argument 3 has type ‘double (*)(double)’ |
| MobileTurkey | 85 |
| MobileTurkey | 85 |
| kb9vqf | does %p fix it? |
| kb9vqf | it sounds like they are trying to print a pointer |
| MobileTurkey | no idea |
| MobileTurkey | i get confused with pointers sometimes |
| kb9vqf | ah |
| MobileTurkey | fixed |
| kb9vqf | well, if %f doesn't fix it then try %p :) |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| MobileTurkey | I am usually pretty good, but a double (*)(double) just confuses me |
| kb9vqf | it is a cast from the pointer of type double to another double |
| MobileTurkey | i figured I am going to fix as many warnings as I can along the way |
| kb9vqf | and will only work on certain architectures |
| MobileTurkey | why that is neccesary i don't know |
| kb9vqf | it was a hack from someone who didn't know about %p probably |
| kb9vqf | every programmer has gaps in his/her knowledge somewhere |
| MobileTurkey | yeah |
| MobileTurkey | anyway fixing up warnings is usually easy and improves quality of code |
| MobileTurkey | actually, suckless.org is my favorite group of programmers, they are very concise and strict. they treat warnings as errors so none of that crap ever happens |
| kb9vqf | yeah, would be nice, but it seems that some standards just keep changing, so keeping up with all warnings would require an army of programmers |
| MobileTurkey | its true |
| MobileTurkey | kb9vqf: uploaded |
| MobileTurkey | but they are typically not to harsh |
| kb9vqf | hmmm |
| kb9vqf | did you do this from SVN? |
| kb9vqf | can you run svn diff for me? |
| kb9vqf | I don't like wholesale replacing files |
| kb9vqf | because it is hard to tell what changed |
| MobileTurkey | i did... |
| MobileTurkey | whoops |

| Z_God | suddenly kmozilla doesn't work anymore with |
| Z_God | can't open the module |
| Z_God | I reverted all the changed I had made but it still won't work |
| Z_God | changes* |
| kb9vqf | huh?? |
| kb9vqf | weird |
| Z_God | maybe if I wipe my .trinity ? |
| * kb9vqf has no idea how that would help... |
| kb9vqf | would be better to debug it now IMHO |
| kb9vqf | obviously if it can get stuck in this state...then it will to some hapless user in the future :-/ |
| Z_God | ok, I created another user |
| kb9vqf | *will happen |
| Z_God | yes, true, maybe it can break itself |
| Z_God | same problem with another user |
| Z_God | so it's in my trinity install |
| Z_God | the only problem, I'm getting no other output than this message |
| Z_God | konqueror creates this dialog |
| *** MobileTurkey has quit IRC |
| *** jmma has quit IRC |
| kb9vqf | huh |
| kb9vqf | well, I'm not sure how to debug it :) |
| Z_God | it links against kgtk2 now I see |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| Z_God | I guess that won't just cause smth like this |
| kb9vqf | no sure |
| kb9vqf | *not |
| kb9vqf | you may need to get more information somehow from it |
| kb9vqf | sorry I can't help much right now |
| Z_God | yep, indeed I need more info |
| kb9vqf | my hands are full with the DSO linking changes in oneiric |
| Z_God | it seems there is a binary incompatibility somehow, but I'm not sure |
| Z_God | I'll try a full rebuild of kdebindings |
| *** MobileTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop |
| MobileTurkey | this network is freaking terrible. They actually have a ubuntu configuration, but it freaking depends on gnome-keyring for not reason |
| kb9vqf | Z_God: Now that you mention it the linkage of a library in a folder above the mozilla plugin had to be changed |
| kb9vqf | so that might explain it |
| kb9vqf | a full rebuild is always a good idea when the build system changes in any way |
| Z_God | it seems it doesn't help |
| Z_God | I just did a complete rebuild |
| MobileTurkey | kb9vqf: okay any other easy bugs for me to hunt down? :P |
| kb9vqf | look through the bugtracker I guess |
| MobileTurkey | I was looking at kpdf and converting it to poppler but that is going to be a huge project I think |
| MobileTurkey | how's oneiric going? |

| kb9vqf | MobileTurkey: This is the kind of nastiness that bad policy decisions make: http://websvn.kde.org/?view=revision&revision=1258263 |
| kb9vqf | even with that scattergun approach to fixing the issue I am sure there are a lot of problems remaining |
| MobileTurkey | yeah |
| Z_God | great I found a new trick :) |
| Z_God | ldd -r |
| Z_God | I'm getting loads of undefined symbols |
| kb9vqf | huh |
| Z_God | things like _ZTI9XPartHost |
| Z_God | even with a fresh compilation... |
| *** MobileTurkey has quit IRC |
| kb9vqf | Z_God: You did setup your environment variables, correct? |
| Z_God | which ones? |
| kb9vqf | you mentioned that there were environment variables required for it to find the Mozilla/XULRunner stuff |
| Z_God | only the ones for running kmozilla |
| Z_God | yes, those are working, I can run kmozilla manually without problems |
| kb9vqf | well, here's what that symbol is: |
| kb9vqf | c++filt _ZTI9XPartHost |
| kb9vqf | typeinfo for XPartHost |
| Z_God | but konqueror can't load the kpart |
| Z_God | because of these missing symbols |
| Z_God | it seems the compilation broke |
| kb9vqf | see what you can do to debug it |
| kb9vqf | i.e. figure out how it should be linked |
| Z_God | I have no clue about how these symbols and so on are resolved |
| Z_God | there is a file xparthost_kpart.o |
| Z_God | I suppose they should be in there |
| Z_God | nm lists that symbol in there |
| Z_God | but it seems the lib is not 'linked' with the object? |
| Z_God | or not built with it |
| Z_God | I'm not sure how this should work |
| kb9vqf | sorry...busy with the oneiric DSO problem |
| Z_God | ok, thanks for checking, it seems at least I'm on the right track |
| Z_God | I hope I can look at the issue again in the weekend, maybe there'll be a magical fix :) |
| Z_God | good luck with oneiric, would be great to see a release with it!! |
| Z_God | I'm off to bed! |
| Z_God | good night! (day) |

| Raevyn | Hello. So Im curious if anyone was able to get the IM client Kopete to connect to Facebook? I see the newer version can but the one in Trinity is giving me issues but I might be entering something wrong. Oh also, screenshots are coming later today for the weird graphical glitches in gtk themes |
| kb9vqf | 3.5.12 or 3.5.13? |
| Raevyn | 3.5.12 |
| kb9vqf | ah |
| kb9vqf | there are some XMPP fixes in 3.5.13 |
| kb9vqf | (3.5.13 isn't released yet, but nightly builds are available) |
| Raevyn | ohhh.. how would I upgrade? |
| kb9vqf | there are some instructions on the mailing list |
| kb9vqf | or you could wait a few weeks for the real release :) |
| Raevyn | I think I will wait for the real release lol |
| Raevyn | thank you though! |
| Raevyn | Im not desperate yet :P |
| kb9vqf | np |
| Raevyn | oh well, I was looking at it appears I can just add the ppa to upgrade to 3.5.13? |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | both the nightly builds and the nightly build dependencies PPAs (2 PPAs total) |
| Raevyn | kk ty :) |
| kb9vqf | np |
| kb9vqf | oh great, the Wine site was compromised :-X |
| kb9vqf | If anyone here has anything to do with Wine be aware your password has been stolen |
| Raevyn | ick.. thats too bad |
| kb9vqf | fortunately I use a low grade password for FOSS stuff as there is no real harm in an attacker having access to free software ;-) |
| kb9vqf | *FOSS software |
| kb9vqf | I'm sure others do too |
| kb9vqf | with any luck the attacker will realize the database is pretty much worthless and forget about it |
| Raevyn | Hopefully.. I mean honestly I would think most people using WINE are probably aware of security protocols.. for the majority at least |
| kb9vqf | except for dumb dumb user that heard about this great new OS called Ubuntu and was told to install Wine |
| kb9vqf | he/she would get a lesson in security protocol the hard way I think |
| kb9vqf | some people should just stick with Macs :) |
| kb9vqf | oh fun...the Bugzilla was compromised too :-X |
| kb9vqf | Wine bugzilla that is, not ours ;-) |
| kb9vqf | that is the most likely place for n00bie Linux users to use their banking passwords I would think |
| kb9vqf | oh well |

| MutantTurkey | I've been looking at solid, the hardware qt interface |
| MutantTurkey | seems pretty legit, but also very closely tied with kde4. |
| kb9vqf | yep, and we don't want ties with that bloated, shiting piece of garbage |
| kb9vqf | *shifting |
| MutantTurkey | yes |
| MutantTurkey | but there is always udev, udisks, upower, u whatever. |
| MutantTurkey | that seems to be shifting as well.. |
| MutantTurkey | sudo apt-get upgrade |
| *** Z_God has quit IRC |
| kb9vqf | which is why I have not replaced HAL yet |
| kb9vqf | and Qt will be slower than upower/udisks/etc. |

| *** MutantTurkey has quit IRC |
| Raevyn | hello again.. okay so, I added the nightly build ppa to my sources list, and the key and did apt-get update. will it now automatically find the updates and load them or do I need to do something else? |
| Raevyn | I see the updates in the software manager but how can i do a mass upgrade rather than one at a time? |
| kb9vqf | apt-get dist-upgrade |
| Raevyn | thanx :) |
| kb9vqf | np |
| Raevyn | huh I did that and it claims there is nothing to upgrade or install |
| kb9vqf | sorry I don't have time right now to troubleshoot further :-/ |
| kb9vqf | check the mailing lust |
| kb9vqf | *list |
| kb9vqf | there should be some additional information in the mailing list archive |

| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: with this patch i sent, half my apps aren't crashing anymore |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: ping |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: I found another deprecated gtk struct in the gtk-qt-engine |
| MutantTurkey | GtkBoxChild is deprecated |
| MutantTurkey | qt_theme_draw.c:750:15 |
| MutantTurkey | http://developer.gnome.org/gtk/2.24/GtkBox.html#GtkBoxChild |
| MutantTurkey | since 2.24 |
| kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Where is the patch?> |
| MutantTurkey | don't have one yet |
| MutantTurkey | I just found it. |
| MutantTurkey | I'll send the patch tomorrow after I fix at it |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | look for more while you are at it |
| kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: before you send in the patch |
| kb9vqf | look for any more deprecated calls |
| kb9vqf | that might explain the disappearing firefox tabs, etc. |
| kb9vqf | IMHO if it's borken that much then the old call should be REMOVED from the API entirely, not just left to fester and cause hard-to-trace problems |
| MutantTurkey | no thats all |
| MutantTurkey | I used the -DGTK_DISABLE_DEPRECATED |
| MutantTurkey | it throws errors at anything deprecated |
| MutantTurkey | as well as -DGDK_DEPRECATED and -D_GDK_PIXBUF_DEPRECATED |
| kb9vqf | ok good :) |
| MutantTurkey | yep |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: either way I'll be looking at tha tfirefox problem as well |
| MutantTurkey | I need to figure how to debug it |
| MutantTurkey | there is a way to enable debuggin |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | look for #defines |
| MutantTurkey | yeah |
| MutantTurkey | I think thats it |
| MutantTurkey | gtk also has pretty good debugging features |
| MutantTurkey | so that too |
| MutantTurkey | either way firefox is really annoying with those tabs :| |
| kb9vqf | I know there is a problem on Firefox 4 |
| kb9vqf | I am thinking it is actually in Firefox |
| kb9vqf | something they did |
| kb9vqf | they are not using GTK, only emulating it IIRC |
| kb9vqf | or some other nastiness |
| MutantTurkey | don't they use some internal rendering? |
| MutantTurkey | with some themeing engine? |
| MutantTurkey | XUL runner i think |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: what's up with Xu_R and network manager? can I help on that end at all/ |
| kb9vqf | Only if you know DBUS and can fix knetworkmanager to use the new DBUS API that comes with network-manager 0.9 |
| MutantTurkey | I can look at it at the least |

| MutantTurkey | I saw the commit |
| MutantTurkey | what was it? |
| kb9vqf | it was a little-used codepath that I missed |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| kb9vqf | you could probably trigger the problem by locking the screen and closing your laptop's lid |
| MutantTurkey | never did that though |

| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: okay now onto knetworkmanager |
| kb9vqf | sounds good |
| kb9vqf | implement the secret agent stuff first :) |
| kb9vqf | try to keep the knetworkmanager internal connection store if the new API will allow it in any way |
| kb9vqf | this is important for a number of reasons, including security and upgradability |
| MutantTurkey | 1) I know absolutely zero about the internals of knetworkmanager 2) it's freaking huge! |
| MutantTurkey | I don't even know where to start |
| kb9vqf | well, a good starting point is the Email Xu_R got back from the network-manager people |
| MutantTurkey | right |
| MutantTurkey | I'm rereading it now |
| MutantTurkey | one thing, do we provide NM.8 now or something? |
| MutantTurkey | how is it functional if our api is broken |
| kb9vqf | uhhh...0.8 has worked for quite a while now |
| kb9vqf | 0.9 breaks everything that requires a secret |
| kb9vqf | possibly more |
| MutantTurkey | I know |
| kb9vqf | ok...I don't know what you were trying to ask then :-/ |
| MutantTurkey | let me rephrase |
| MutantTurkey | when we are communicating to network manager currently, we are still on the 0.8 API |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| MutantTurkey | then how is it still working if I have 0.9 installed? |
| MutantTurkey | :| |
| kb9vqf | it doesn't |
| kb9vqf | it shouldn't |
| kb9vqf | huh |
| kb9vqf | are you on a password protected network? |
| kb9vqf | and are you SURE you have the 0.9 API installed? |
| MutantTurkey | NO AND NO |
| MutantTurkey | sorry caps |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| MutantTurkey | I use a wep key network at home, it works |
| kb9vqf | on 0.9? |
| kb9vqf | as in wep works with 0.9/ |
| kb9vqf | ? |
| MutantTurkey | let me see |
| kb9vqf | if so I wonder if the main problem will be whatever the network-manager people considered "secrets" |
| * kb9vqf thought a WEP key would be considered that though |
| MutantTurkey | actually you're right |
| MutantTurkey | still running 0.8 |
| kb9vqf | ok, thought so |
| MutantTurkey | right |
| MutantTurkey | so now I need to get the 0.9 api on natty or whatever |
| kb9vqf | you can't |
| kb9vqf | (as far as I know) |
| * kb9vqf gets the feeling he is going to have to do this :-/ |
| MutantTurkey | sorry :| |
| MutantTurkey | there is a migration info page |
| MutantTurkey | http://projects.gnome.org/NetworkManager//developers/api/09/ref-migrating.html |
| kb9vqf | yes, I linked to it on the bug report |
| kb9vqf | I can't start until oneiric is building properl |
| kb9vqf | *properly |
| kb9vqf | so it will probably be a few weeks before I can even look at it |
| MutantTurkey | ok good |
| MutantTurkey | okay at least |
| MutantTurkey | how is oneiric looking? still storting through build failures? |

| kb9vqf | it is a direct port from dbus-1-qt for Qt3 |

| Xu_R | hm. this secret agent adaptor... the header comment: |
| kb9vqf | been there, done that |
| Xu_R | "This file was generated by qdbusxml2cpp version 0.7" |
| kb9vqf | yes, there are network manager XML interface files |
| kb9vqf | hmmm |
| kb9vqf | I forgot about that |
| Xu_R | because they use that to create cpp + h file to call methods |
| Xu_R | then they make the secretagent file to call... that file and then etc XD |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| kb9vqf | problem is I don't know how to make that work without creating a new knetworkmanager-0.9 |
| Xu_R | ... |
| kb9vqf | maybe copy in the XML files from the target system on the fly? |
| kb9vqf | oh well |
| Xu_R | not sure that will work >>; |
| kb9vqf | if need be we can split knetworkmanager into two versions |
| kb9vqf | just becomes a pain to keep them in sync |
| Xu_R | could we just have the file sit there, but not be called unless version 0.9? |
| Xu_R | because AFAIK only the secret agent file calls it... |
| kb9vqf | maybe |
| kb9vqf | I don't know |
| kb9vqf | we'll try it |
| Xu_R | (but then we'd have to have a bunch of version checking in the file for the #include and then the function calling) |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | get something to me that works, and I'll see if it should just be split or what |
| Xu_R | will try |

| MutantTurkey | gtk is my specialty |

| kb9vqf | yes, Crystal is quite nice |
| MutantTurkey | very configurable |
| MutantTurkey | I like that. |
| kb9vqf | on Kubuntu it is the default |
| MutantTurkey | I think the defaults look terrible tbh |
| kb9vqf | I know someone who uses it with the lipstik widget theme |
| MutantTurkey | but I played around with it and it's great |
| kb9vqf | yes, the defaults DO look terrible :-P |
| MutantTurkey | :P |
| kb9vqf | they are the Kubuntu defaults as of Kubuntu 8.10 |
| MutantTurkey | the gradient doesn't work very well |
| MutantTurkey | well doesnt look nice imho |
| MutantTurkey | I find plastic to be very nice. |
| MutantTurkey | I don't know if this is a Qt3 feature, but i've only seen it here and on new macs, is the overlay scrollbar. do you know anything about it? |
| KingSphinx | Very XP-ish though. :P |
| MutantTurkey | KingSphinx: I love xp:) |
| MutantTurkey | that was my primary choice for a very very long time. |
| MutantTurkey | Interestingly enough, I also had a windows ME (the edition that altogether disapeared and failed) that was rock solid for years and years |
| MutantTurkey | eventually the battery kicked out |
| KingSphinx | Vista may have been quite a shock to the system, but I admit, Aero is very nice. I'm not a huge fan of XP's "Fisher-Price" default look, but the version of Luna in Media Center Edition ("Energy Blue") is nice. |
| MutantTurkey | vista is more of a fail then ME |
| MutantTurkey | frankly vista was just a whole heap of crap |
| MutantTurkey | and while windows 7 works, (and well at that) it is very bloated |
| MutantTurkey | 1.6 gigs just to boot my desktop? cmon |
| KingSphinx | That's the fault of having people who insist that Windows work with legacy crap from 1995. :P |
| MutantTurkey | KingSphinx: not entirely |
| MutantTurkey | it also happens to be because at microsoft dev centers they get new computers every year, with the highest componets to do dev work on |
| KingSphinx | But wow, 1.6 GB just to idle? I'm gonna need more RAM if I want to use 7 comfortably... |
| MutantTurkey | so basically they can bloat it up, don't notice. then consumers get f'd |
| MutantTurkey | that is part of it, the legacy crap |
| KingSphinx | (2.5GB RAM here on my computer) |
| MutantTurkey | 4 gigs on this baby, 2 on my other, never used more than 1 on either.. |
| MutantTurkey | I just use tmpfs's and caches alot so its handy |
| MutantTurkey | firefox cache -> tmpfs was the greatest thing ever |
| KingSphinx | For some reason, Trinity 3.5.12 always reported using a LOT of cache memory. Should I have worried about that? |
| KingSphinx | Like, 2 GB of RAM would be reported in cache |
| MutantTurkey | cache is okay |
| MutantTurkey | it's actually free |
| KingSphinx | Ah |
| MutantTurkey | well it contains stuff, but if the system needs it, they just throw out the old stuff |
| kb9vqf | basically Trinity is using the spare memory to speed things up instead of letting it sit idle (and therefore wasted) |
| kb9vqf | it doesn't NEED that memory to function |
| MutantTurkey | that is linux (not trinity) |
| kb9vqf | i.e. it won't be paged out |
| KingSphinx | So... a bit like Windows, but in a non-bloaty way? |
| MutantTurkey | windows = bloat |
| MutantTurkey | linux = non bloaty |
| kb9vqf | Windows pages all that memory out to swap |
| kb9vqf | it needs it unfortunately |
| kb9vqf | Linux won't |
| kb9vqf | Windows doesn't report its cache usage IIRC |
| MutantTurkey | I hate swap :| (knows he always gets crap for sayng it, but I do) |
| kb9vqf | (well, not as "used RAM" anyway) |
| MutantTurkey | KingSphinx: honestly my desktop is always on and it's ram is "full" with cache, which is awesome because unused ram = waste of space |
| KingSphinx | Well, at least there's one thing to look forward to tomorrow: Ubuntu 11.10 comes out :D |
| KingSphinx | Though sometimes I kinda wish there were a rolling-release version of Ubuntu |
| kb9vqf | ? |
| kb9vqf | according to the release schedule I thought it was the 24th |
| kb9vqf | oh well |
| MutantTurkey | KingSphinx: I hate the upgrades, something always seems to go wrong |
| kb9vqf | another missed release :(( |

| DexterF | hi |
| DexterF | kopete won't connect to gtalk anymore.... anyone else got this? |
| kb9vqf | on 3.5.12 or on the nightly builds? If gtalk uses XMPP then there is a fix in SVN already |
| *** schreiberstein has quit IRC |
| DexterF | kb9vqf: 3.5.12 |
| DexterF | gtalk is xmpp, yes |
| DexterF | aka jabber |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| kb9vqf | there has been a fix in SVN for some time |
| kb9vqf | we are still working towards an early November release of 3.5.13 |
| kb9vqf | trying to smash as many bugs as we can first :) |
| Edogaa | >.> |
| kb9vqf | Edogaa: Trinity builds and runs perfecly on Natty; Oneiric is still in progress and there is an issue with the network-manager |
| kb9vqf | hopefully that problem will be resolved before the release |
| *** MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Edogaa | still in progress? |
| Edogaa | it was released today |
| Edogaa | but yeah, I see. |
| kb9vqf | well, we don't have the resources of Canonical ;-) |
| *** K`zan has joined #trinity-desktop |
| kb9vqf | and we prefer to release as bug-free as possible, whereas Canonical always releases with bugs |
| Edogaa | xD Uh. |
| Edogaa | wait.. i mean, Ah. |
| kb9vqf | This development cycle was also longer than normal, to allow us to fully absorb Qt3 and related bindings |
| kb9vqf | (which was NOT a trivial task) |
| Edogaa | i see, i see. |
| kb9vqf | so we're actually on target for a release late in 2011 :) |
| kb9vqf | much changed in Linux as well since 3.5.12 was released :-P |
| kb9vqf | some good, some bad |
| Edogaa | what bad? D: |
| kb9vqf | well for starters, network-manager decided their API needed a completel overhaul |
| kb9vqf | they think it's a good idea to store passwords for connections in a central system-wide database :-P |
| kb9vqf | Ubuntu decided to prevent autolinking of libraries (thus actually bloating large applications and making maintinance a nightmare) |
| kb9vqf | etc, etc. |
| kb9vqf | on the plus side though the kernel itself is as stable as I have ever seen it, and FAST too! |
| kb9vqf | noveau is actually approaching usability, etc. |
| kb9vqf | so more good than bad over the past year in the core system IMHO |
| DexterF | kb9vqf: .13 still a kde3 release then or trinity rather? in terms of: own doce under the hood |
| kb9vqf | ? |
| Edogaa | how's pulse with kde3 btw? |
| kb9vqf | works great |
| kb9vqf | DexterF: We 'own' all Trinity versions from 3.5.11 onwards |
| kb9vqf | KDE e.V. has not released KDE3 since 3.5.10 |
| kb9vqf | Trinity will not be radically altering the general form of KDE3--we aim to improve it, not replace it ;-) |
| kb9vqf | Xu_R: Status report please :) |
| DexterF | kb9vqf: there was the idea once to rewrite from scratch wasnt it? |
| kb9vqf | never from me... |
| kb9vqf | that was the KDE4 decision |
| kb9vqf | and we all know what they ended up with :-P |
| Edogaa | Eh...kde4 isn't so bad :/ it's just not kde3 lol |
| kb9vqf | It's good for some workloads and bad for others |
| DexterF | even torvalds prefers xfce over gnome3/kde4 |
| kb9vqf | just like Trinity, Gnome, and all other desktops |
| DexterF | kb9vqf: does torvalds know about trinity btw? |
| kb9vqf | no idea |
| * kb9vqf wonders now |
| DexterF | the way he rants how new DEs instill idiocy in users he one should point it out to him.. who knows, maybe there's a uber banner carrier in for trinity :) |
| kb9vqf | hehe, possibly! |
| kb9vqf | I'd wait for our next release before mentioning it though |
| kb9vqf | 3.5.13 that is |
| kb9vqf | it's almost here and carries a lot of internal improvements and bugfixes |
| Edogaa | hmm |
| DexterF | good to hear. glad the project lives. |
| DexterF | still, what can I do about gtalk right niw? I really need to talk to some people :P |
| kb9vqf | hmmm |
| Edogaa | I wonder , will there be some interface improvements? |
| kb9vqf | you could theoretically cherry pick the fix from our patch list |
| kb9vqf | Edogaa: Like what? |
| kb9vqf | there is a brand new XRandR tool :) |
| kb9vqf | and some other things |
| kb9vqf | but we are not going to be going down the KDE4 route |
| kb9vqf | the basic interface itself is pretty much static |
| Edogaa | i don't know, i mean in some areas, like with whatever you guys use system settings. I don't recall feeling to comfortabel with it when i was trying it on debian stable through a vm |
| Edogaa | but keeping everything about the same :/ |
| kb9vqf | we use kcontrol mostly |
| Edogaa | right, that. |
| kb9vqf | hey, we like it :) |
| Edogaa | ah |
| kb9vqf | I always feel lost on the KDE4 equivalent |
| Edogaa | Eh, I guess it's becsause I've been using the KDE4 and XFCE equivalent to modifying settings |
| kb9vqf | although if you can put on paper some of the issues you feel exist we are open to discussing them |
| kb9vqf | we won |
| Edogaa | xD |
| kb9vqf | we won't shoot down new ideas like KDE4 does ;-) |
| kb9vqf | The only semi-permanent rule is that burying settings in layers and layers of subwindows is a Bad Idea |
| kb9vqf | the user should always know exactly where he or she is |
| kb9vqf | and I know there is code in Trinity that violates that principle, and it should be fixed sometime :-P |
| Edogaa | okay, here's my super new idea...we rewrite all of trinity into trinity 2, and unify everything into some complex and limiting architecture |
| Edogaa | PERFECT IDEA ;D |
| kb9vqf | :-P |
| kb9vqf | I should have said *automatically* shoot down new ideas ;-) |
| Edogaa | XD |
| kb9vqf | the trinity-devel mailing list is a good place to bring up potential user interface improvements |
| Edogaa | btw, do you guys mess around with the qt3 toolkit? I Mean actually improving the code wise :/ I don't know how all that works and whether qt3 is being maintained at all or rather...well iobviously it can compile otherwise this project wouldn't exist but i think you know what i mean :/ |
| Edogaa | also, how do qt4 and qt3 apps work together |
| Edogaa | no conflicts? |
| MutantTurkey | DexterF: tovalds is a great man, but frankly I don't think he knows to much about GUI's... |
| MutantTurkey | when it comes to that is preference |
| MutantTurkey | (sorry way late on the response) |
| DexterF | MutantTurkey: hey, as long as he thinks like me I#m all for him carrying my flag :) |
| MutantTurkey | Edogaa: also the xfce settings manager is stinky |
| DexterF | MutantTurkey: how so? |
| MutantTurkey | I belive that they use a single application for it, and so it is not dynamic |
| MutantTurkey | in trinity and kde4 we load a module for each settings |
| MutantTurkey | so that way a 3rd party could use our kcontrol and easily add it |
| Edogaa | ah |
| MutantTurkey | trinity, configurable and dynamic! :D |

| kb9vqf | Seems Ilya helped us indirectly: https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file?file=gcc46-fix.patch&package=kde3-amarok&project=KDE%3AKDE3&srcmd5=a31cb15c7d7ebdbb4ad3a081297f0c0a |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| kb9vqf | though I really wish he'd submit patches upstream to us directly :( |
| Z_God | I understand he's not considering trinity to be upstream for him |
| Z_God | I'm not really sure why |
| kb9vqf | he want to use his stanant and obsolete version because he considers the number of packages available as the primary metric of success |
| kb9vqf | so it is leading to duplication of effort between his variant of KDE3.5.10 and the Trinity project on matters of compilation/linking |
| Xu_R | he's also managed to piss off a few factory devs, so that's not good. |
| kb9vqf | my opinion is that Trinity is a desktop--if it has a great version of some app then by all means include and maintain it (e.g. Amarok) but otherwise let better apps (OpenShot, etc.) take over |
| kb9vqf | and keep Trinity compilable with the latest UNMODIFIED upstream sources :) |
| kb9vqf | yes it causes headaches here, but some of the upstream decisions are really for the best |
| kb9vqf | oh well |
| kb9vqf | my only concern is that "KDE3" will get a bad name from his stagnant buggy repository |
| kb9vqf | it adds more pressure to get rid of all mention of KDE3 with this project |
| kb9vqf | which isn't a bad thing I suppose |
| Z_God | you mean there are more apps in suse's kde3? |
| kb9vqf | AFAIK yes, but most of them are not useful or have far better GTK equivalents |
| Z_God | I wonder what kind of packages |
| kb9vqf | not sure--last I checked they tend to be small apps such as irc clients |
| kb9vqf | (how many of those do we REALLY need anyway? ;-)) |
| Z_God | but can't those just as easily be compiled against trinity's kdelibs? |
| kb9vqf | not sure, and as Trinity diverges from KDE3.5.10 the chances go down |
| kb9vqf | of course they could be modified, but it is like being pecked to death by old ducks |
| kb9vqf | It would be interesting once we move to GIT to add a community software area |
| Z_God | but are there really big source incompatibilities? |
| kb9vqf | I wouldn't expect so |
| Z_God | me neither, I'd be surprised really then |
| kb9vqf | I just can't take on more packages into the core distribution |
| kb9vqf | the core must be fully compilable for a release |
| Z_God | sure, but suse could easily use trinity as it's base for kde3 |
| Z_God | and compile the extra apps they have against it |
| kb9vqf | Ilya claims "no" because of "missing extra apps" |
| kb9vqf | I know :-P |
| kb9vqf | I really don't know why he does not |
| Z_God | I see |
| kb9vqf | your solution actually makes sense |
| Z_God | but then the question would be really "why he does he expect those apps to be part of trinity core?" |
| kb9vqf | yeah |
| Xu_R | one thing I don't like is that when they said they would include KDE3 back in, he just used 2008 specs (WITH UNSERMAKE?!) and tried to submit them back ._." |
| kb9vqf | and I'm using "core" losely |
| kb9vqf | *loosely |
| Z_God | yep, I understand |
| Z_God | there is even more in there than there was in the official KDE 3 |
| Z_God | I think |
| kb9vqf | "core" to me here is meaning any app with no direct 1:1 feature set replacement in GTK/KDE4 |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | and a lot of then are junk honestly |
| kb9vqf | personally I'd like to encourage a rolling-release (no version numbers) community applicatoin repostory where that kind of stuff can get dumped with no distro packaging required |
| kb9vqf | if they breakm they break |
| kb9vqf | if they break, they break |
| * kb9vqf can't type |
| kb9vqf | and no binary builds from the official Trinity project |
| kb9vqf | for that repository |
| Z_God | what kind of apps do you imagine in there? |
| kb9vqf | 500 different IRC clients :) |
| kb9vqf | seriously though, old stuff that has already been replaced |
| kb9vqf | with better GTK variants |
| kb9vqf | it's there to satisfy people like Ilya |
| Z_God | I can imagine it's not always trivial to know/find replacements though |
| Xu_R | feel free to look: https://build.opensuse.org/project/packages?project=KDE%3AKDE3 |
| Z_God | I'm a heavy user of kwordquiz for example |
| Z_God | and I'm glad it's part of trinity, but I can imagine not that many people use it intensively |
| kb9vqf | and I suppose if someone really liked an app in there then they could take it over, polish it up, bring it up to modern standards, and get it included in the main distribution |
| kb9vqf | that's my thought anyway |
| kb9vqf | this really is not all that different than Ubuntu's model of main and multiverse software |
| kb9vqf | main is expected to compile, receive updates, etc. |
| kb9vqf | multiverse stuff can go away at any time |
| Z_God | ah yep |
| kb9vqf | now imagine if all the devs had to keep multiverse up to the standards of main |
| kb9vqf | Ubuntu would still be in text mode :) |
| kb9vqf | that's where the Trinity project is at, and why we didn't take on all those extra apps |
| kb9vqf | after 3.5.13 is released some serious thought should go into the aging Trinity application ecosystem |
| kb9vqf | (i.e. the apps available for 3.5.10 and not Trinity) |
| kb9vqf | *not in Trinity yet |
| Z_God | I'm not aware of loads |
| Z_God | I guess there are bugs with more info on that? |
| kb9vqf | no not really |
| Z_God | and the main issue is just packaging it? |
| kb9vqf | I mean there are a few bug reports |
| kb9vqf | yes,and bringing it up to compilability with modern libraries |
| kb9vqf | without hacks |
| Z_God | but is that really needed? |
| kb9vqf | if it is in the main distribution, yes |
| Z_God | I imagine that some core things needed updating |
| Z_God | but I wouldn't expect many apps to need changes |
| kb9vqf | it really depends |
| kb9vqf | there are a lot of hackish fringe apps |
| kb9vqf | that pull in weird libraries, etc. |
| kb9vqf | I would expect most apps to need updates for gcc4.4, 4.5, and 4.6 |
| Z_God | hmm ok |
| kb9vqf | and then the linker changes that have also happend |
| kb9vqf | (neither of those are the result of changes the Trinity project made BTW) |
| Z_God | yep, I understand |
| kb9vqf | ok :) |
| Z_God | I didn't realize that gcc changed so much |
| kb9vqf | it became more strict |
| Z_God | but I indeed had to add headers and so on sometimes as well |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| Z_God | btw, what do you use for development now? |
| kb9vqf | gcc4.6 is what I am fighting with ATM |
| kb9vqf | I am seriously contemplating adding the community software branch to GIT though; then Ilya can stuff as much in there as he wants |
| Z_God | I unfortuntately have a very limited connection at home (I can only download 10GB per month) |
| Z_God | but now I'm at my parents for the weekend |
| kb9vqf | and we don't have to maintain or package any of it :) |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| Z_God | so I can set up a proper VM |
| Z_God | it seems my maverick vm broke |
| kb9vqf | oh fun |
| Z_God | should I install oneric & use the current nightlies? |
| Z_God | I think it would be perfect indeed if there would be a git branch for ilya to play with |
| kb9vqf | use natty unless you are satisifed with only the kde* modules and Amarok installing ATM |
| Z_God | I just like a snapshot so I can continue playing with kmozilla |
| kb9vqf | lots of build problems to work through yet |
| kb9vqf | use Natty |
| Z_God | ok :) |
| kb9vqf | Oneric won't be ready for a few weeks |
| kb9vqf | Ubuntu changed the linker and it's a bit of a mess |
| kb9vqf | lots of manual changes needed |
| Z_God | you think the changes have some advantages? |
| Z_God | aren't other DEs also affected? |
| kb9vqf | yes they were affected but Ubuntu patched them itself |
| kb9vqf | AFAIK |
| kb9vqf | and no, these particular changes have no advantage other than working around a limitation in binutils-gold |
| kb9vqf | there is some heated discussion about it online |
| Z_God | it seems crazy when they have to patch so many things themselves |
| kb9vqf | (no, I'm not involved in the discussions :) |
| Z_God | I wonder if it would be easier to focus on LTS versions |
| Z_God | but there is always a risk that would be just piling up work |
| kb9vqf | right |
| kb9vqf | and this development cycle was crazy anyway for us |
| kb9vqf | we absorbed Qt3 almost entirely |
| kb9vqf | so we got somewhat behind as a result |
| Z_God | qt3 needed so many fixes? |
| kb9vqf | just a lot of work bringing it in along with all of its dependencies |
| kb9vqf | renaming things |
| kb9vqf | pulling the Qt3 modules out of upstream projects |
| kb9vqf | etc. |
| Z_God | ok |
| Z_God | there hasn't been any response yet to that qt5 feature request I made btw |
| kb9vqf | you won't get one |
| Z_God | if qt5 would be at least performing properly, I think it would be neat if TQt would enable a relatively quick Qt5 port |
| kb9vqf | only if they provide all of the methods needed for a desktop |
| Z_God | then it will stay open in their tracker forever |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | they are pretty much committed to the mobile phone path |
| Z_God | maybe it would be interesting to contact Opera some time |
| Z_God | and maybe other companies heavily depending on desktop Qt |
| kb9vqf | browsers don't really use "real" desktop methods |
| Z_God | but they have the same performance issue at least |
| kb9vqf | The best way to put this is that Qt4 is application oriented, and Qt3 could actually be used to create a desktop environment |
| kb9vqf | different goals, different APIs |
| kb9vqf | I say choose your battles wisely |
| kb9vqf | Trinity still outperforms anything else out there by a wide margin, would Qt4/Qt5/Qt6 really gain you anything? |
| kb9vqf | (execpt XFCE or other ultra-lightweight desktops) |
| Z_God | it would drop the need to maintain qt at some point |
| Z_God | and it would enable better integration |
| Z_God | which toolkit would you recommend a new desktop application developer to learn now? |
| kb9vqf | GTK or Qt4 |
| kb9vqf | depending on the complexity of the app |
| kb9vqf | for more complex apps GTK |
| kb9vqf | and we have pretty darn good GTK integration already :) |
| kb9vqf | BTW if we're not maintaining Qt then we'd be maintaining the Qt interface and having to jump at each Qt API change |
| kb9vqf | that is far more work, trust me |
| Z_God | you think there will also be Qt4 integration like the GTK integration? |
| Z_God | these integration things also appear as hacks to me sometimes |
| Z_God | but if it will be trivial to have such integration modules for common toolkits, I indeed don't see a problem |
| kb9vqf | once we are off the Qt namespace as mentioned earlier, then yes we will have Qt4 integration |
| Z_God | ok, but still I wonder how easy/hard it will be to implement |
| kb9vqf | much easier than trying to deal with upstream Qt |
| Z_God | I think getting GTK to works stably took some effort as well |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | I put in some of that effort so I can make a valid comparison |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| kb9vqf | Qt4 is much more work |
| Z_God | ok |
| Z_God | I think the GTK stuff will be cool to see in kmozilla :) |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| Z_God | I'm kinda curious how the end result would be |
| kb9vqf | I think most people want Qt4 because it has a higher version number |
| kb9vqf | they don't understand the fundamental differences |
| Z_God | you mean for trinity? |
| * kb9vqf really wishes that projects would just RENAME THINGS when they come out with a completely different version of something that only generally resembles the original |
| kb9vqf | no, in general |
| Z_God | because as an app developer, I'd want qt4 because I can get support for it |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | I'll go with that |
| kb9vqf | so you probably have no problem using SystemC and developing stuff for iPhones, right |
| kb9vqf | ? |
| kb9vqf | or some other limited development environment |
| * kb9vqf is playing devils advocate a bit |
| Z_God | personally, I do not see a big future for closed source software |
| kb9vqf | I realize there are no real good alternatives, but I would go with GTK given the choice of Qt4 or GTK for a large app |
| kb9vqf | I would vastly prefer Qt3 |
| Z_God | but if I would be working for a software company and they'd ask me what toolkit to use, I would advice them Qt4 because there is commercial support available when things do not work as they should |
| Z_God | but it would be for both free and unfree software |
| kb9vqf | and I wouldn't buy their products because a.) they will be slower than native Linux apps and b.) Qt4 tends to break ransoml |
| kb9vqf | *randomly |
| Z_God | I don't know much about the options for GTK |
| kb9vqf | unless there was literally no other choice (Wine apps included!) |
| Z_God | but what about things like Google Earth? |
| kb9vqf | don't use it personally, so can't comment |
| kb9vqf | I know Qt3 is a dead end |
| Z_God | yep, same here, but in most cases people would develop something that doesn't exist yet I'd say ;) |
| kb9vqf | for new apps |
| kb9vqf | but Qt4 is not a viable alternative in my opinion |
| kb9vqf | there is no really good toolkit out there right now |
| kb9vqf | until this tablet craze dies down I don't expect one to emerge either |
| kb9vqf | Microsoft had an amazing opportunity here to steal back desktop users, but instead they are blinded by the same craze :-P |
| Z_God | well, Qt3 is good technically I guess, but when it comes to maintenance and support, there is not as much available anymore as for qt4 |
| kb9vqf | I agree |
| kb9vqf | but if it is just absorbed as a backend library for Trinity who cares really about support? |
| kb9vqf | new apps should be developed for GTK or similar |
| kb9vqf | until a better toolkit comes along |
| Z_God | what I suspect is that future hardware may have better performance with a toolkit like qt5 |
| kb9vqf | on Xorg? Unlikely |
| Z_God | because of how it will be optimized for GPUs |
| kb9vqf | that optimization is in Xorg, not Qt |
| kb9vqf | or put another way: Qt4 is simply hacking around Xorg (remember the nasty bypass hack?) |
| Z_God | ok, I don't know much about that |
| Z_God | yes |
| kb9vqf | that is not good, it won't work on a network well at all, it causes problems with windows, etc. |
| kb9vqf | just a complete mess |
| kb9vqf | but it works great for phones where you only have a few windows open |
| kb9vqf | or if you don't use any Xorg stuff |
| Z_God | I have the impression that the traditional ways of X11 will be replaced with smth with OpenGL |
| kb9vqf | I don't know, I'm just a bit frustrated with where everything is going lately |
| kb9vqf | oh yuck |
| Z_God | but somehow keeping X11's networking |
| kb9vqf | I don't know how you could even do that :-P |
| Z_God | but I also have many performance issues with remote X11 and non-Qt3 stuff |
| kb9vqf | OpenGL is a monstrosity |
| kb9vqf | right |
| kb9vqf | see? :) |
| Z_God | so yep, I don't see it working yet |
| Z_God | I know people are working on this stuff though |
| Z_God | networking OpenGL and so on |
| Z_God | but with the high GPU interaction... |
| Z_God | it doesn't seem to fit in the X11 model anymore |
| Z_God | I still believe that X11's network tranparancy is a very important thing though |
| Z_God | I wouldn't want to scarifice that just like that |
| kb9vqf | me either, but that is what will be done |
| kb9vqf | just so you can have smooth bouncing icons obscuring your workspace :-P |
| kb9vqf | this generation really is full of idiots |
| kb9vqf | I didn't want to believe it at first, but it seems that if it isn't exciting enough like their morning cartoons then it is "outdated" and "old" and "boring" |
| Z_God | I don't know much about it, I didn't spend much time with it |
| kb9vqf | /rant |
| kb9vqf | I find all that junk very distracting |
| Z_God | some of the effects seem funny, I don't really feel like spending much time on setting such stuff up though if it's not there already or if it's not stable |
| kb9vqf | well, just remember that while that effect is playing you are sitting in front of a computer growing fatter, wrecking your eyes, and being completely unproductive :-P |
| kb9vqf | personally it is the stupidest thing I have ever heard of |
| kb9vqf | if you want effects, go to a movie! |
| Z_God | I waste time on my comp anyhow watching enough stupid stuff ;) |
| kb9vqf | I know, as do most people |
| kb9vqf | but this way they waste time while claiming to be "working" |
| kb9vqf | and actually thinking they *are* working |
| Z_God | well yeah when the effects are so and people are assuming it's just necessary to be like that |
| Z_God | slow* |
| Z_God | because they don't know better |
| kb9vqf | and they will never know better |
| kb9vqf | *sigh* |
| Z_God | when we had our programming class at uni, I remember one group wanted a cool loading screen for their program |
| Z_God | but what we had to write was really trivial, so it just popped up instantly |
| Z_God | but they had a loading screen ;) |
| kb9vqf | I hate that |
| Z_God | which was just doing random stuff and displaying a loading effect |
| kb9vqf | I don't use programs over things like that |
| Z_God | it was hilarious then |
| kb9vqf | well, yes, as it should be :) |
| Z_God | but it seems to become serious indeed |
| Z_God | I know some systems use effects in a smart way |
| kb9vqf | even Trinity does |
| kb9vqf | everything I hover over becomes highlighted |
| kb9vqf | it is a feedback mechanism |
| Z_God | but also with loading I mean |
| kb9vqf | yes, that too |
| Z_God | in Ukraine they use a chipcard system for the metro |
| kb9vqf | openoffice and friends |
| Z_God | at least in Kharkov |
| Z_God | when you put your card in the device, it takes a moment to read the card |
| Z_God | but this is done with a sliding animation |
| kb9vqf | yes, and there it makes sense |
| Z_God | so it seems to slide the info on the screen immediately when you put the card in |
| kb9vqf | same thing with Trinity's smartcard authentication |
| Z_God | but it's actually reading it then, sometime the slide is a bit slower |
| kb9vqf | but that is just keeping the user in the driver's seat so to speak |
| kb9vqf | he/she knows exactly what is happening |
| kb9vqf | not wondering "is this thing on?" |
| Z_God | yep, and that also looks neat |
| kb9vqf | so tell me this: If graphical stuff is all the rage right now in FOSS, why don't we have a decent CAD program yet? |
| Z_God | I think design != eyecandy ;) |
| kb9vqf | right |
| kb9vqf | eyecandy is just that: candy |
| kb9vqf | bad for the brain |
| kb9vqf | on the developer's end as well |
| kb9vqf | actually I would like to run a study |
| Z_God | at least too much of it yes |
| kb9vqf | my theory is that eyecandy enabled devices encourage hyperactivity ala ADHD |
| Z_God | even when the animations make the whole system "calmer"? ;) |
| kb9vqf | rather than the brain idiling while it waits (or better yet doing something else like looking around) it is constantly engaged by the flashy animation on the screen |
| kb9vqf | of course it depends |
| Z_God | but when you have to wait less |
| kb9vqf | but I have never seen "calmer" animations |
| Z_God | because there is less candy to wait for |
| Z_God | you also idle less |
| kb9vqf | yes, but then your work is done faster |
| Z_God | and you get more work to do |
| kb9vqf | so we should be using pencils and paper? |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| Z_God | in some situations, using tricks to people relax a tiny bit regularly, might also be good |
| *** MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop |
| kb9vqf | it also discourages responsibility from the individual--the individual learns to relax only when told |
| Z_God | but overall studies suggest that this eyecandy does not improve productivity though |
| kb9vqf | right |
| kb9vqf | and I suspect it has a deeper effect in hyperactivity |
| kb9vqf | the brain does not take kindly to rapid idle/productive/idle cycling |
| Z_God | ok, that makes sense yes |
| MutantTurkey | "studies suggest" |
| kb9vqf | haven't you ever been frustrated by a computer taking too long to catch up to what you are wanting to do |
| kb9vqf | ? |
| Z_God | I'm not frustrated too quickly luckily :) |
| MutantTurkey | I concur. actually eye candy just distracts you. |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| MutantTurkey | my theory is that things need to be smooth. |
| kb9vqf | and the brain is a bit odd |
| kb9vqf | it has multiple "networks" |
| kb9vqf | only one is actually active at a time |
| MutantTurkey | less = more |
| kb9vqf | so switching tasks (e.g. from work to Facebook) actually uses a lot of resources |
| kb9vqf | think of it as a CPU with a very expensive context switch operation :) |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: we cannot truely multitask (or so they say) |
| kb9vqf | exactly |
| MutantTurkey | typically I agree |
| kb9vqf | you can't |
| kb9vqf | but your mind is the measurement device, so you have no idea of the impact of the "context switch" |
| kb9vqf | until you look at a clock and realize how much time you have wasted |
| Z_God | in my case, I'm not able to certain things for a long period of time though |
| kb9vqf | there is also fatigue and burnout |
| Z_God | it works better for me when I spend a bit of attention on them, then do smth else, then get back to them |
| kb9vqf | you don't want to do the same thing for hours on end any more than you want to be interrupted every two seconds for half a second |
| kb9vqf | correct |
| Z_God | like studying words |
| kb9vqf | and that is what I was saying above (albiet badly) |
| kb9vqf | the faster you can complete a task, the faster you can take a *real* break |
| kb9vqf | one that allows the brain to reset |
| Z_God | yes, I don't think I would want to wait, just to be able to see some smooth animation |
| kb9vqf | and yet that is exactly what the average user wants |
| kb9vqf | why? |
| kb9vqf | I think I know :) |
| kb9vqf | because using a computer is like a game to them |
| Z_God | or to impress people maybe |
| kb9vqf | they don't really do any hard work on it |
| Z_God | it's like having a shiny car |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | a shiny car with a loud engine |
| kb9vqf | not very practical |
| Z_God | but I never had people ask me specifically for this actually |
| MutantTurkey | someone just asked me how ritchie was more significant than jobs... sigh |
| Z_God | even though I set up quite a few people with Trinity |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: shiny car, oud engine |
| MutantTurkey | that is why petty consume laptops are flashy |
| kb9vqf | shiny sports car |
| Z_God | hehe |
| MutantTurkey | that is why facebook gets redesigned every week |
| Z_God | I hate it, I can't use it anymore |
| kb9vqf | now take your sports car to the grocery store |
| kb9vqf | it might take two trips ;-) |
| MutantTurkey | now my state of the art, top of the line, business grade laptop (yes I am gloating, I think i am allowed after 4 years on an atom) |
| Z_God | and I know other people also have difficulty with facebook due to that |
| MutantTurkey | Z_God: yeah. I avoid it mostly |
| MutantTurkey | I just quit twitter though, so i need some new form of outlet. |
| Z_God | I have facebook set up to mail & jabber everything to me |
| Z_God | but facebook is often broken :S |
| kb9vqf | I don't agree with the Facebook TOS so I don't use it :)) |
| Z_God | I like Google+ because it just uses mail & jabber and doesn't try to reinvent anything new |
| kb9vqf | anyway I think some serious scientific studies would back up projects like this one and their GUI methodology |
| kb9vqf | but they will never be "popular" |
| Z_God | I think Trinity should aim at developers |
| kb9vqf | sort of like a recording studio versus a cheap $5 walkman clone |
| Z_God | and the next release should be on Slashdot ;) |
| kb9vqf | which one is going to be more popular? ;-) |
| kb9vqf | s/walkman/ipod/iphone/g |
| MutantTurkey | Google+ is not to good either |
| Z_God | yep, there are some things that need to be improved |
| kb9vqf | yes, Trinity aims at *real* developers |
| MutantTurkey | frankly i see little need for social networing |
| MutantTurkey | mostly I just use it because I need to contact my girlfriend, etc |
| Z_God | I don't think G+ is really a social network |
| MutantTurkey | it is |
| MutantTurkey | more in a twitter sense of it though |
| kb9vqf | you know, those people who know the innards of their computer and how to bend it to their will |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| * kb9vqf needs to go |
| kb9vqf | gn all |
| Z_God | good night! |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: did you ever read real programmers xkcd? |
| MutantTurkey | wait! |
| MutantTurkey | very important |
| MutantTurkey | http://xkcd.com/378/ |
| MutantTurkey | :) |
| MutantTurkey | then sleep |
| MutantTurkey | the good old C-x M-x M-butterfly |
| Z_God | my parents also use trinity without problems really and it's good for them because things stayed the same for 10 years for them ;) |
| kb9vqf | hehe |
| kb9vqf | a real programmer wants more control, not less |
| kb9vqf | thereby invalidating that cartoon |
| kb9vqf | :)) |
| MutantTurkey | it's a joe |
| MutantTurkey | joke' |
| MutantTurkey | anyhow |
| kb9vqf | I know :)) |
| MutantTurkey | It does illustrate the good vim vs emacs war |
| kb9vqf | just having fun |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | and I say "why use those outdated editors? Try kate!" |
| kb9vqf | :)) |
| Z_God | when there was vim VS emacs at wineconf |
| Z_God | quite a few people said kate |
| Z_God | in 2009 |
| Z_God | and I'm sure it has millions of users |
| Z_God | I also need to leave, I'll install natty tomorrow in a VM |
| Z_God | good night!! |
| MutantTurkey | kate I like, I am a big fan of geany as well |
| MutantTurkey | Good night. |

| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: do we have debug versions of qt3? |
| MutantTurkey | as a package? |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | qt-x11-free-dbg |
| MutantTurkey | ok thank you |
| MutantTurkey | that should help debugging a bit :) |
| kb9vqf | np |
| MutantTurkey | says they should be automatically used by gdb, but I don't think they are |
| MutantTurkey | keep getting things like kernel/X.ccp not found |
| MutantTurkey | and such |
| kb9vqf | huh |
| kb9vqf | it works here :-/ |
| kb9vqf | did you ever install qt3 from source? |
| MutantTurkey | weirdo |
| MutantTurkey | I can't seem to get it to compile... |
| kb9vqf | because if you ever installed it from source during the history of your computer the debugging symbols may be permanently broken |
| MutantTurkey | another thing. I think our png in qt maybe borked, or the way kicker is calling it is broken |
| kb9vqf | which kicker? |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: :| permenantly? jeez ubuntu... |
| MutantTurkey | kickoff |
| kb9vqf | well, that's a bug in kickoff |
| MutantTurkey | yes |
| kb9vqf | everything else works 100% |
| MutantTurkey | I know that :) |
| kb9vqf | ok :) |
| * kb9vqf hates Kickoff with a passion |
| MutantTurkey | me as well. |
| MutantTurkey | but, eliminating bugs that I can handle is more important then talking about what I like |
| kb9vqf | that's fine |
| kb9vqf | but don't expect much help from me on kickoff |
| MutantTurkey | of course |
| kb9vqf | I have much more important things to do, such as mopping my floor :-P |
| kb9vqf | j/k |
| MutantTurkey | more like mopping up the oneiric mess |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| kb9vqf | bad joke |
| MutantTurkey | every release I have more bitter resentment for ubuntu |
| MutantTurkey | now it is flat out hatred. |
| kb9vqf | me too |
| kb9vqf | although the core sytem works well |
| kb9vqf | I have to give them that |
| MutantTurkey | they are taking advantage of linux |
| MutantTurkey | and the foss system |
| MutantTurkey | to make money in an evil way. |
| kb9vqf | yes, but they polish it up |
| MutantTurkey | I am okay with corporate involvemnt, red hat enterprise etc |
| kb9vqf | I don't want to have to fight with arcane subsystems for every single install |
| kb9vqf | Ubuntu did polish up that aspect quite nicely |
| MutantTurkey | but ubuntu actually doesn't even mention that its based on linux.... |
| MutantTurkey | at ALL |
| MutantTurkey | on their website |
| kb9vqf | I don't like what they say |
| kb9vqf | I am only interested in part of their final product |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| MutantTurkey | "THE UBUNTU OPERATING SYSTEM. FEATURING X Y Z ALL BY UBUNTU" |
| kb9vqf | I mean we're throwing away 75% of the packages they offer already by not using KDE4, Gnome, etc. |
| kb9vqf | yes, I have a problem with that |
| MutantTurkey | they pretend to be part of the foss community but they are actually forcing new users to keep out |
| MutantTurkey | did i tell you I got in an argument with an ubuntu user. |
| kb9vqf | but given a choice between fighting with other distros just to make them work at all (Debian anyone?) I'll cut my losses and use the Ubuntu core |
| MutantTurkey | we were chatting about it, and I was like "have you tried any other Linux distros" he said "ubuntu isn't linux..." |
| kb9vqf | :-P |
| kb9vqf | What does Linus have to say about it? |
| kb9vqf | It is his OS after all... |
| kb9vqf | (largely) |
| MutantTurkey | debian is by far the greatest distro |
| kb9vqf | If your computer is at least a few years old |
| MutantTurkey | in terms of usage, stabilty, community |
| kb9vqf | But it doesn't run properly on new hardware |
| MutantTurkey | :? |
| kb9vqf | been there, done that :-P |
| MutantTurkey | archlinux is my favorite of course :P |
| MutantTurkey | another thing with ubuntu, is that the company makes design decisions and forces you to keep with them. every six months |
| kb9vqf | because it stagnates for so long between releases if won't run on hardware designed and manufactured within the past year or so typically |
| kb9vqf | If debian had a faster release cycle then I'd use it instead |
| kb9vqf | oh, and the other thing is if a proproetary driver exists I want to use it easily |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: just use thier testing. |
| kb9vqf | Ubuntu lets me do that |
| kb9vqf | Debian does not |
| kb9vqf | *proprietary |
| kb9vqf | testing can break at any time :-P |
| MutantTurkey | meh. it's usually okay. |
| MutantTurkey | unstable is a bit more likely to break |
| kb9vqf | I need a better guarantee than that here, sorry :) |
| MutantTurkey | but I have been running arch for like 4 years, no breaks, and thats all bleeding |
| MutantTurkey | anyway, I digress. |
| kb9vqf | all it takes is one problem in the kernel and POOF |
| MutantTurkey | I find that ubuntu is less stable because of the frequent upgrades. |
| kb9vqf | Well, I have my reasons :) |
| kb9vqf | others do to |
| kb9vqf | actually I use both Ubuntu and Debian |
| kb9vqf | Debian on the servers, because they don't run proprietary stuff |
| kb9vqf | *some of the servers rather |
| kb9vqf | and Ubuntu on the desktops |
| MutantTurkey | ubuntu is just yucky system wise i find. weird paths, oddball things that aren't part of the standards typically found in desktops. even things like upstart and the whole init system I find unbearable |
| MutantTurkey | arch has a BSD style init system. it rocks. |
| kb9vqf | upstart is FAST |
| kb9vqf | I like it honestly |
| MutantTurkey | anyway :O about to get off the bus. gotta split |
| kb9vqf | ok |

| KingSphinx | Bleh, Ubuntu's taking forever to upgrade. |
| kb9vqf | Please wait while Ubuntu installs 'bloat': 'KDE4'....'Gnome'...'Unity'...100%...Done! |
| kb9vqf | Now stealing your passwords....complete! |
| kb9vqf | :-P |
| KingSphinx | lol, I'm just upgrading because I'm trying to stay up-to-date. Still wish Ubuntu had a rolling-release version though, these six-month upgrades get annoying. |
| KingSphinx | And according to the channel logs, there's a problem with Trinity's Kickoff? I'd forgotten there was even a KDE3 version of Kickoff... |
| kb9vqf | yeah, well...it's not maintained very well at all :) |
| kb9vqf | all of the original bugs are still in it |
| KingSphinx | Was this KDE3-native or a backport from 4? |
| KingSphinx | also, yes, it's very buggy... Kickoff works great in 4, 3? Not so much. :P |
| kb9vqf | it was the OpenSUSE project version of kickoff |
| kb9vqf | I hate it personally |
| kb9vqf | that's why it has never been fixed :) |
| kb9vqf | if someone wanted to clean it up I'd accept the fixes into SVN though |
| KingSphinx | But it kinda has to be included? |
| kb9vqf | there are people who want it |
| kb9vqf | and it doesn't hurt...if someone upgrades from KDE3.5.10 they will notice a missing feature that used to exist, but they won't notice if it's just as bad as it was under KDE3.5.10 :) |

| kb9vqf | ? |
| MutantTurkey | in the kickoff |
| kb9vqf | oh, ok |
| kb9vqf | well, send in a patch when you fix it |
| MutantTurkey | :) |
| *** KingSphinx has joined #trinity-desktop |
| KingSphinx | Yep, Unity's fixed. |
| MutantTurkey | ... |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: one thing I do like about kickoff is the search function |
| kb9vqf | there is one in the standard KMenu as well |
| MutantTurkey | pretty handy. I know the regular menu has it too |
| MutantTurkey | it's a bit different format. inthe standard kmenu, you have to go into different categories to see |
| MutantTurkey | a few more clicks. both are acceptable |
| kb9vqf | I'd rather know where the thing is for next time |
| kb9vqf | instead of being helpess and fully dependent on the search :-/ |
| MutantTurkey | that is true |
| MutantTurkey | in windows 7 I am completely dependant an the search |
| MutantTurkey | because those menus are just to much for me. |
| kb9vqf | and you keep typing the same things over and over I bet :- |
| kb9vqf | :-P |
| MutantTurkey | yes |
| MutantTurkey | I mean, I am not really a menu guy anyway. I only use about 3 apps |
| MutantTurkey | browser, terminal, konversation |
| kb9vqf | ah |
| kb9vqf | you could use the quicklaunch for that |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: cooking dinner for my girlfriend tonight. how many hackers does it take to make pasta? |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: I do! :D i love quick launch |
| kb9vqf | don't know |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: do you reckon that suse has a working kickoff? isn't that where we got it? |
| * MutantTurkey asks to many questions |
| kb9vqf | that's where we got it from |
| kb9vqf | I think theirs works just as badly as ours |
| MutantTurkey | ok |
| kb9vqf | except it has nicer graphics |
| MutantTurkey | ? |
| MutantTurkey | ours looks ok |
| KingSphinx | I still wonder why KDE3 would even want a Kickoff, but whatever. |
| kb9vqf | (obviously we can't ship SuSE logos in upstream distro-agnistoc sources!) |
| MutantTurkey | the "Powered by TDE" looks a bit flakey though... |
| kb9vqf | hey, feel free to fix it |
| kb9vqf | I hate kickoff and won't touch it |
| MutantTurkey | :) |
| MutantTurkey | on the list |
| MutantTurkey | also i've been going through our bug list closing off irrelevant ones and such |
| kb9vqf | I noticed |
| Z_God | installed natty now, at least I can compile kmozilla again & have it working |
| MutantTurkey | spend my extra time in chem knocking a few off |
| * Z_God knocks on wood |
| kb9vqf | there are LOT of closed bugs out there, so that's good |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: closed bugs, and bugs that are closed and need to be verified |
| *** msb__ has quit IRC |
| MutantTurkey | or closed because we don't support karmic, for example |
| kb9vqf | fine with me |
| kb9vqf | I was a bit lazy earlier and didn't always close the bug report when it was fixed |
| *** schreiberstein has quit IRC |
| KingSphinx | There's still people that use Karmic? O_o |
| MutantTurkey | well, at least they aren't actual problems, but closing those ones off will make it easier to take down bugs |
| MutantTurkey | KingSphinx: no we just have some lingering bug reports from karmic, obviously that are irrelevant now |
| MutantTurkey | just some administrative cleanup :) |
| kb9vqf | yes, one of my original users in acadamia still has Karmic on their systems :-P |
| kb9vqf | some organizaions don't want to take the time and effort to upgrade |
| MutantTurkey | KingSphinx: also, ubuntu does have long term release installs every few (3?) versions |
| KingSphinx | Every four versions |
| MutantTurkey | thats it |
| KingSphinx | If organizations don't want to bother changing every six months, why not just go for Debian Stable or something like RHEL/CentOS? |
| MutantTurkey | yeah thats what i was thinking |
| MutantTurkey | dumb people -> want linux -> poor decisions about distro -> to lazy to change |
| MutantTurkey | at Drexel U, they had a few debian boxes, the rest seemed to be ubuntu with some sort of central login system |
| MutantTurkey | kinda cool |
| MutantTurkey | kinda funny, seeing kids use ubuntu (of course only in the comp sci dep) |
| Z_God | it's silly to change so often at an organisation |
| Z_God | and it's not necessary with Ubuntu either |
| Z_God | the LTS versions work perfectly fine |
| Z_God | and they give you 5 years of support for the server versions |
| Z_God | and 3 years for the desktop |
| Z_God | there is a new LTS version every two years, which gives you a year to upgrade the desktops and even more time for the servers |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: okay found the problem. the parsing mechanism media is totally borked |
| *** affect has quit IRC |
| kb9vqf | not sure what you mean... |
| *** KingSphinx has quit IRC |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: there is a crappy parser with a bunch of for/while loops that parses the different "media" devices. eg usb, hd partitions |
| MutantTurkey | but the parser is fargled |
| MutantTurkey | so gotta work it out |
| kb9vqf | ah |
| kb9vqf | sounds like a stupid design anyway |
| kb9vqf | typical from the KDE4 crowd |
| MutantTurkey | kinda busy tonight and tomorrow,, but tomorrow night i shoul dhave it |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: yeah. i mean the idea is ok. implementation is terrible |
| MutantTurkey | anyway gotta go cook! |

| KingSphinx | Well, I've run into my first annoying bug in 11.10... installing the Cantarell font caused GNOME Shell to display blocks instead of font. |
| kb9vqf | ooh, nice |
| KingSphinx | I could understand the blocks problem happening if I'd removed the font, but it was *installing* the font that caused the issue. Weird, huh? |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| kb9vqf | the font is not complete I would guess |
| KingSphinx | Well, that's dumb. |
| kb9vqf | yes it is |
| kb9vqf | but it's also typical Ubuntu all the way |
| kb9vqf | BTW how do you like Gnome? |
| KingSphinx | Non-broken? It's actually not bad. Made quite an improvement from GNOME 3.0 to 3.2 |
| KingSphinx | Hardware acceleration actually seems to work in 3.2 |
| kb9vqf | ah |
| kb9vqf | better in overall design than Trinity? |
| KingSphinx | (as in, Shell runs smoothly. It ran like poo in Fedora...) |
| KingSphinx | Lol, it's minimalistic and efficient. There's always room for a traditional desktop though, and that's where Trinity comes in. :) |
| kb9vqf | ah, ok |
| kb9vqf | so your lite app launcher versus a full fledged desktop? |
| kb9vqf | that's what you use both as? |
| * kb9vqf is curious how Trinity is filling in people |
| kb9vqf | *filling in people's needs |
| KingSphinx | To be fair, if I had Trinity installed, I'd more than likely use it as my main, but for what it is, GNOME ain't too bad. Still not a fan of the tablet interface though. |
| KingSphinx | Also, Ubuntu IRC channel isn't really being helpful with my problems... then again, it's absolutely swamped, why did I think it'd be a good idea to go there? >_>; |
| kb9vqf | hehe |
| kb9vqf | and for what KDE4 is it isn't too bad, but what it is isn't something I would ever choose to use |
| kb9vqf | unless I had one of those surface computer toys maybe |
| KingSphinx | You mean that $50,000 computer table? (or however much it costs) |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| kb9vqf | KDE4 just doesn't seem to "fit" on a typical tablet screen |
| kb9vqf | but maybe if it could work with something larger... |
| * kb9vqf could see some use for it there |
| kb9vqf | something with light-duty usage |
| kb9vqf | *something very large with light duty usage |
| kb9vqf | so I guess I'm saying KDE4 is not practical lol :) |
| * kb9vqf didn't realize what he was moving towards |
| kb9vqf | of course Trinity would be a terrible choice for such a computer |
| kb9vqf | we really do need multiple desktop environments, one for each class of device I guess |
| KingSphinx | Duh, it's a traditional desktop-metaphor DE. Then again, Windows used to shoehorn its desktop into tablets, so who knows? |
| kb9vqf | right |
| kb9vqf | I was just laying out what I consider common sense :) |
| kb9vqf | that way the existence of the typical desktop can be explained as a tradeoff between price/real estate/cost and functionality |
| kb9vqf | and if the physical desktop computer itself is a good balance, then the specialized desktop environments to run on such machines should be retained, not replaced |
| KingSphinx | Oh, that whole "stuff randomly disappearing in Fireofx" thing is a bug? |
| KingSphinx | *Firefox |
| kb9vqf | yes, it seems so |
| kb9vqf | it's a bug in GTK |
| kb9vqf | or Firefox |
| kb9vqf | whatever it is I think MutantTurkey managed to work around it |
| kb9vqf | binaries are probably not built yet though |
| tbottu | 10kb9vqf@pearsoncomputing.net changed the Status on bug 538 from NEW to RESOLVED FIXED. |
| tbottu | 04Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=538 enhancement, P5, ---, kb9vqf, RESOLVED FIXED, gtk-qt-engine contains deprecated components. |
| KingSphinx | Been waiting for about... two hours now...? Still no answer to my font problems on #ubuntu... geez |
| *** KingSphinx has quit IRC |
| *** KingSphinx has joined #trinity-desktop |
| KingSphinx | Huh... reinstalling that Cantarell font seems to have done the trick. Odd. |
| kb9vqf | maybe someone pushed an update already |
| KingSphinx | Now if only someone could figure out why Ubuntu Software Center seems to have permissions problems (it never prompts for my password, hence I can't use it to install anything), I'd be set. |
| kb9vqf | I'd check polkit |
| kb9vqf | I don't know how it works, but I do know that Ubuntu loves to use it instead of sudo :-/ |
| kb9vqf | and this has caused many headaches here |

| Fat-Zer | MutantTurkey: hi. i'm working on cmake for kdeartwork now... is it a good ides to add variables like BUILD_KCLOCK_SCREENSAVER BUILD_KWAVE_SCREENSAVER etc for each screensaver? or make it WITH_ ? generally, is it a good idea to add workaround for making possible building only some screensavers? |

| Raevyn | Hello. Is there a way to delete the portion of my kde profile that stores my menu (its borked somehow) but not the entire desktop settings and appliation confirgurations? |
| *** KingSphinx has joined #trinity-desktop |
| *** KingSphinx has quit IRC |
| Fat-Zer | yes it's possible... |
| Fat-Zer | Raevyn: i don't remember what file is corresponds for what but u can edit menu and use find command to search for recently changed files. |
| Fat-Zer | seems it's ~/.config/menus/applications-kmenuedit.menu |
| Raevyn | Hm.. I will try that in the other profile I made. ITs weird.. I can edit and save my menu changes except for a utilties folder and its contents |
| Raevyn | that seems it thank you! |
| *** Raevyn has quit IRC |
| *** Raevyn has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Raevyn | Okay I think I found the issue.. GNOME. On my other user profile I never logged into GNOME with it so the menu looks normal but even after I removed the applications-kde file, the menu went wonky because its importing in GNOME menus. I think the only way to get around this is to move my files to another profile, delete this profile, and recreate it moving my personal files back and changing the permissions on them huh? |
| Raevyn | Actually... isnt it possible to copy over my other profiles correct menu to another? Just change the permissions on it? |
| Fat-Zer | look into ~/.config/menus/ directory according to freedesktop.org specifications all menu entries configuration should be there... |
| * Raevyn nods |
| Raevyn | I think thats the big issue.. mine is all mucked up from my customizing the gnome menu. |
| Fat-Zer | so just delete it... or you whant to keep your gnome menu settings? |
| Fat-Zer | i think that won't work... |
| Raevyn | No I.. |
| Raevyn | well.. yea i am thinking its going to require user account stuff.. i might wait to get a new disk drive and just load trinity natively on it. |

| MutantTurkey | are they in seperate folders? |
| Fat-Zer | no |
| MutantTurkey | I suggest then you don't seperate them |
| MutantTurkey | they should be bundled |
| MutantTurkey | Fat-Zer: how much progress have you made? also feel free to email me files (mutantturkey@gmail) if you want me to look over them. |
| Fat-Zer | kwin-styles kworldclock sounds styles and wallpapers are ready... |
| *** kb9vqf has quit IRC |
| Fat-Zer | but that wasn't really chalenging... |
| MutantTurkey | yeah it's not to hard |
| MutantTurkey | mostly just time consuming |
| MutantTurkey | well send some files over when you get them ready :) I want to double check them all for syntax and stuff |
| MutantTurkey | then we can have tim push it to the SVN |
| MutantTurkey | Fat-Zer: do you use kickoff? |
| MutantTurkey | Xu_R: are you around? suse question here |
| Fat-Zer | kscreensaver will be harder... and i don't know how to write ConfigureChecks.cmake... |
| Fat-Zer | >do you use kickoff? |
| Fat-Zer | no... what's that? |
| MutantTurkey | nevermind :P it's the kde4 menu system |
| MutantTurkey | Fat-Zer: why do you need to write for ConfigureChecks.cmake |
| MutantTurkey | I suggest looking at kdegraphics/ConfigureChecks.cmake or something |
| MutantTurkey | Fat-Zer: what do you need it for? |
| Fat-Zer | don't know... i think i should check for some header files and trinity stuff... |
| MutantTurkey | ... |
| MutantTurkey | okay can you look at the kdegraphics/ConfigureChecks,cmake |
| MutantTurkey | it shows what is required (at the bottom it says #required stuff) |
| MutantTurkey | all else you will need is finding packages. |
| MutantTurkey | or headers |
| Fat-Zer | hmm... i'm just don't know for what headers and packages to check... |
| MutantTurkey | we need samelian :P he is the really smart one on cmake |
| MutantTurkey | Fat-Zer: okay, you many want to look at the configure.in.* files |
| MutantTurkey | Fat-Zer: just do what you can, if you need me to finish it, I can :) |
| MutantTurkey | It hard to explain because i am not very sure how to do it |
| Fat-Zer | ok... i'll do what i can/understand |
| MutantTurkey | ok :D |
| MutantTurkey | thanks! |
| Fat-Zer | cool... i attached localization and it works)) |
| MutantTurkey | sweet sweet |
| MutantTurkey | are you finding cmake to be okay to work with otherwise? |

| MutantTurkey | h31: but if you are looking to just install trinity, then you'll want a fresh copy of Ubuntu/Debian and from there you can instal trinity |

| MutantTurkey | h31: but building trinity isn't too bad. and hey, isn't that half the fun of gentoo? |

| Fat-Zer | btw if somebody will ask about gentoo packaging you can send them to me ;) |
| MutantTurkey | okay! |
| MutantTurkey | do you have it done? |
| MutantTurkey | I knew somebody was working, couldn't remeber whoo |
| MutantTurkey | Fat-Zer: are you building with cmake ../ -DBUILD_ALL=ON? |
| Fat-Zer | no |
| MutantTurkey | that should be an option |
| MutantTurkey | forget how I did it |
| Fat-Zer | cmake /tmp/kdeartwork/ -DBUILD_KWIN_STYLES=ON -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/tmp/kdeartwork-install |
| MutantTurkey | yes |
| MutantTurkey | but you should be able to do -DBUILD_ALL=ON and build all modules |
| MutantTurkey | okay let me look at thekwin problem first |
| Fat-Zer | it's there... |
| Fat-Zer | the option... |
| Fat-Zer | too |
| MutantTurkey | does itwork? I see it |
| Fat-Zer | maybe... i haven't tried it yet |
| MutantTurkey | hmmm I cannot seem to build it :| |
| MutantTurkey | can't find my -lkdecore library |
| Fat-Zer | yes... that's a problem) |

| Fat-Zer | yes... the same... |
| MutantTurkey | hmmm |
| MutantTurkey | so it's the tde_add_kpart that is at issue |
| MutantTurkey | did you look at the wiki? samelian has a page on cmake |
| MutantTurkey | let me find |

| Fat-Zer | that describes nothing that i haven't get from cake files... |
| MutantTurkey | Fat-Zer: okya |
| MutantTurkey | you need to add kparts-shared first of all |
| MutantTurkey | all kparts need that in LINK |
| MutantTurkey | and the others should be XX-shared |

| Fat-Zer | *kwin's |

| *** KingSphinx has quit IRC |
| Fat-Zer | MutantTurkey: this patch: http://paste.pocoo.org/show/493496/ |
| Fat-Zer | it creates and installs kwin.cmake |
| Fat-Zer | like this: |
| Fat-Zer | add_library( kdecorations-shared SHARED IMPORTED ) |
| Fat-Zer | set_target_properties( kdecorations-shared PROPERTIES |

| Fat-Zer | you can look at kicker or konqueror CMakeList.txt there is the same... |
| MutantTurkey | so is that the solution? |
| Fat-Zer | yes |
| Fat-Zer | it's the right solution... |
| Fat-Zer | MutantTurkey: i think i should tell Tim about that or write to mailing list? |
| *** jmma has joined #trinity-desktop |

| kb9vqf | svn up |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: I meant if i had modified files |
| kb9vqf | or if you meant revert, then svn revert --recrusive . |
| kb9vqf | *recursive |
| MutantTurkey | okay thanks : |
| kb9vqf | from within the directory you want reverted |
| kb9vqf | np |
| MutantTurkey | gotta test this more throughly |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: how do I build a package again? |
| kb9vqf | dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot |
| MutantTurkey | right |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: can I build with static libraries? |
| kb9vqf | no idea |
| MutantTurkey | okay |
| kb9vqf | probably if you play with the CMake file |
| kb9vqf | *files |
| MutantTurkey | yeahgot it |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: also, can I reinstall a package? |
| MutantTurkey | :) |
| kb9vqf | dpkg -i <packagename>.deb |
| MutantTurkey | ok |
| MutantTurkey | most confusing thing about the debian packaging system is that there are many different tools |
| MutantTurkey | pretty sure I just borked my system |
| MutantTurkey | gotta hit the bed anyway |

| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: nice |
| MutantTurkey | now it doesn't crash |
| MutantTurkey | but the button still sucks. gotta fix that up tomorrow |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | then bug report and patch... |
| MutantTurkey | yep |
| MutantTurkey | also that firefox patch is nice :) |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: I don't know if my patch is legit. it seems so dumb of a mistake my solution just seems randomly to work |
| MutantTurkey | solution seems to trivial |
| kb9vqf | firefox patch? |
| kb9vqf | the one already committed to SVN? |
| kb9vqf | all programmers can make dumb mistakes BTW; fix them as you find them... |
| MutantTurkey | yes the one in the svn |
| MutantTurkey | that is nice |
| kb9vqf | good to hear it works proplery :) |
| kb9vqf | *properly |
| kb9vqf | solutions can be trivial |
| kb9vqf | send the patch in on a bug report--if it's wrong I'll say so |
| MutantTurkey | yes. I sent it in |
| MutantTurkey | if this isn't the solution, I am going to have to do a whole overhaul of that area of code (which is okay, I am just a slow learner so far at C++ and I have constantly look everything up) |
| MutantTurkey | anyway I really gotta sleep night. |

| kb9vqf | Xu_R: Status report please |
| MutantTurkey | I'm trying to help him oversee it a little bit. |
| MutantTurkey | throw some pointers |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: do you want me to start dealing with bug 547 |
| tbottu | 04Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=547 enhancement, P5, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, gtk-qt-engine does not support GTK3 |
| MutantTurkey | I have ported a few apps to GTK3 already |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | go right ahead |
| kb9vqf | but please don't break GTK2 support |
| MutantTurkey | I am trying to figure out how to implement that |
| MutantTurkey | it might need to be qt-gtk2-engine qt-gtk-3engine |
| MutantTurkey | seperate sources |
| MutantTurkey | because you cannot do it the other way |
| kb9vqf | hmm |
| kb9vqf | do a new module in the current engine |
| kb9vqf | we don't need two separate configuration modules for instance |
| MutantTurkey | a new module in the current engine OK |
| MutantTurkey | we will see :P |
| kb9vqf | by a new module I mean a completely different .so file compiled from code in its own folder--the only linkage is that it uses the settings files from the original kcontrol module |
| kb9vqf | make sense? |
| MutantTurkey | okay |
| MutantTurkey | should I just start by making a foldre and copying the source into it? |
| MutantTurkey | I mean basically the conversion is simple, instead of rewrite |
| MutantTurkey | the source |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | that is exactly what you should d |
| kb9vqf | *do |
| kb9vqf | move src to src2 |
| kb9vqf | copy src2 to src3 |
| kb9vqf | fix the CMake files to build src2/ and src3/ instead of src/ |
| kb9vqf | hack on src3 |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| kb9vqf | network-manager 0.9 scares me |
| kb9vqf | from a security perspective |
| kb9vqf | they have literally forced all connection information to be stored in a system wide configuration database |
| kb9vqf | so it's up to how good their access controls are at keeping things secret, instead of POSIX |
| kb9vqf | :eek: |

| Xu_R | kb9vqf: basic backporting done, but probably not even close to functional. Will probably spend this week making it much better. |
| Xu_R | on another note: today was hell, even though it's only Monday. bbl. very delayed replies incoming. |
| *** Fat-Zer has joined #trinity-desktop |
| *** kb9vqf-web has joined #trinity-desktop |
| kb9vqf-web | Xu_R: Trinity 3.5.13 will ship with nm-applet; the changes to knetworkmanager would require a complete rewrite. At this point I do not see much of a problem with using nm-applet with the GTK/Qt engine |
| kb9vqf-web | If someone wants to rewrite knetworkmanager I won't stop them, and the knetworkmanager 0.8 version will still ship with 3.5.13 and later versions |
| Xu_R | kb9vqf-web: yea, I figured this would happen :-\ |
| kb9vqf-web | It just does not make sense to duplicate effort at this point |
| Xu_R | kb9vqf-web: from above: I did some basic backporting, now to actually finish and stuff... |
| kb9vqf-web | the problem is knetworkmanager is designed around its internal connection database |
| kb9vqf-web | nm 0.9 suddenly requires you to use the system database only |
| Xu_R | kb9vqf-web: I noticed that when I was trying to backport some of it :-\ |
| kb9vqf-web | yes |
| kb9vqf-web | it needs a rewrite |
| Xu_R | and we don't have resources for a rewrite right now... |
| kb9vqf-web | And I would wait until network-manager 1.0 at the earliest |
| kb9vqf-web | the API chages too radically and too often right now for anyone other than netowrk-manager itself to make an applet for it |
| Xu_R | just in case the API changes again |
| Xu_R | yea. |
| kb9vqf-web | correct |
| kb9vqf-web | I mean it's chancing every year right now :-P |
| kb9vqf-web | *changing |
| kb9vqf-web | we got lucky with 0.7 and 0.8 |
| Xu_R | ah, linux is changing wayy to fast >_>;; |
| kb9vqf-web | And I really, really don't like the lack of security in 0.9 |
| kb9vqf-web | no, just certain GNOME progjects :-P |
| kb9vqf-web | *projects |
| Xu_R | XD at least kde4 learned their lesson and slowed down XD |
| kb9vqf-web | hehe |
| kb9vqf-web | so they're shipping the same bugs in each new release? :-P)) |
| Xu_R | LOL |
| Xu_R | probably XD |
| kb9vqf-web | I did split off knetworkmanager into knetworkmanager8 and knetworkmanager9 |
| Xu_R | especially if they're marking legitimate bugs as NOTABUG |
| kb9vqf-web | yep |
| Xu_R | ok. that keeps both of them seperate :P |
| kb9vqf-web | knetworkmanager9 will contain the rewrite eventually |
| kb9vqf-web | right now it's just a clone of knetworkmanager8 |
| kb9vqf-web | and before that even, we should see what the most irritating parts of nm-applet are |
| kb9vqf-web | so that the rewrite can fix them |
| kb9vqf-web | we don't need to stay with the old knetworkmanager UI... |
| kb9vqf-web | anyway, just wanted to let you know |
| Xu_R | a full rewrite! what fun >_>; |
| kb9vqf-web | you could star working on it if you want |
| kb9vqf-web | :) |
| kb9vqf-web | *start |
| Xu_R | I don't know enough about Qt3 to even attempt that right now :P |
| Xu_R | nor do I happen to have enough time DX |
| kb9vqf-web | ok |
| Xu_R | backporting and fixing is as far as I can go right now :( |
| kb9vqf-web | well, it might just end up on the never-done list :) |
| Xu_R | who knows... |
| Xu_R | we just need more people first... |
| kb9vqf-web | actually if I can skin nm-applet with gtk-qt-engine then I don't see the point in a unique applet for Trinity |
| kb9vqf-web | I mean the functionality is identical |
| kb9vqf-web | in fact, nm-applet will work *better* in most cases |
| Xu_R | people just want uniqueness... or pure Qt... |
| kb9vqf-web | I don't care |
| kb9vqf-web | Trinity is not a religion built around Qt3 :-P |
| Xu_R | XD |
| kb9vqf-web | if there's a beter app in a different toolkit I've always said to use it :) |
| kb9vqf-web | *better, unline my typing today |
| kb9vqf-web | *unline |
| kb9vqf-web | *unlike |
| kb9vqf-web | grr |
| Xu_R | hehe |
| Xu_R | exactly |
| Xu_R | unlike what Ilya is doing ._. |
| kb9vqf-web | and if it doesn't blend in with Trinity then there's a bug in the intergration package(s) |
| kb9vqf-web | Trinity should present a unified graphical interface, but through those integration packages, not through rewrites and reinventing the wheel |
| kb9vqf-web | Let MutantTurkey know please |
| kb9vqf-web | he was curious |
| Xu_R | sure |
| * kb9vqf-web can't use memoserv from here |
| kb9vqf-web | not logged in :) |
| Xu_R | :P |
| kb9vqf-web | also he should keep fixing bugs as he is already doing with the gtk engine |
| kb9vqf-web | oneiric is almost built... |
| kb9vqf-web | :)) |
| kb9vqf-web | release is ON SCHEDULE for Nov. 1 |
| Xu_R | :D |
| Fat-Zer | i haven't seen the whole talk. but you are talking about not rewriting kde applet with new api? |
| kb9vqf-web | correct |
| kb9vqf-web | unless someone really wants to do it |
| Fat-Zer | omm.... |
| kb9vqf-web | you can view the discussion in the channel log :) |
| kb9vqf-web | functionally, knetworkmanager was always behind nm-applet anyway |
| kb9vqf-web | and with proper gtk integration, using nm-applet should actualyl be an improvement |
| kb9vqf-web | *actually |
| kb9vqf-web | Did you have a different opinio? |
| kb9vqf-web | *opinion? |
| * kb9vqf-web hates this webchat |
| Fat-Zer | AFAIK nm-applet requires a big part of gnome isn't it? |
| kb9vqf-web | no |
| kb9vqf-web | just some libraries AFAIK |
| kb9vqf-web | common GTK libraries that are probably on your system already to be honest |
| kb9vqf-web | network-manager pulls in more dependencies than the applet does AFAIK |
| * kb9vqf-web goes to look |
| kb9vqf-web | the network-manager devs advertise that the nm-applet can be used on XFCE, GNOME, etc. |
| Fat-Zer | it pulls gnome-keyrings for me... |
| kb9vqf-web | the keyring I can understand |
| kb9vqf-web | that's only a few KB though |
| kb9vqf-web | that's no different than if you installed one library from Trinity--it would pull in the kyering for all of Trinity |
| kb9vqf-web | but not actually INSTALL all of Trinity ;-) |
| Fat-Zer | yes... but IMHO to hame a special kde appelete is better... |
| kb9vqf-web | if you want to write it go ahead... |
| Fat-Zer | =) |
| kb9vqf-web | my estimate is 6 months solid of a developer's time |
| kb9vqf-web | that's expensive in either time or $$$$ |
| kb9vqf-web | and what do we REALLY get out of it? |
| Fat-Zer | yea... i understand that. |
| kb9vqf-web | I could understand if it was some special app with no direct replacement anywhere, such as Konqueror :) |
| kb9vqf-web | Looks like the largest dependency is the icon pack: http://packages.ubuntu.com/oneiric/network-manager-gnome |
| kb9vqf-web | and the buggest problem is that it uses GTK 3.0, but MutantTurkey is fixing that |
| kb9vqf-web | *-biggest |
| Fat-Zer | have you seen the small patch i send to ML yesturday? |
| kb9vqf-web | For CMake? |
| kb9vqf-web | yes |
| Fat-Zer | yes. |
| kb9vqf-web | I'll commit that and the other kdebase patch for kickoff a bit later |
| Fat-Zer | ok thanks) |
| kb9vqf-web | probably in the next few days |
| kb9vqf-web | np |
| kb9vqf-web | Fat-Zer: Also, as I was saying to Xu_R, I would definitely wait for nm API v1.0 before even trying to do a rewrite |
| kb9vqf-web | who knows what changes will occur in a year |
| kb9vqf-web | I would want to see a stable (non-development) version of the library before even attempting that |
| *** kb9vqf-web has quit IRC |

| MutantTurkey | it's weird and not very minimalistic like the regular KButton |
| MutantTurkey | so I am going to modify it to use KButton |

| MutantTurkey | Fat-Zer: hey |
| Fat-Zer | hi... |

| Fat-Zer | MutantTurkey: don't know your mail so send to ml |
| MutantTurkey | cool |
| MutantTurkey | sorry |
| MutantTurkey | was letting my little sister watch a video before bedtime |
| MutantTurkey | parents are away in paris so I am basically stuck babysitting her and my senile grandmother who is supposed to take care of her for the week. |
| MutantTurkey | Fat-Zer: did you send it in? |
| Fat-Zer | yes |
| Fat-Zer | developer mail list is pre-moderated... isn't it? |
| MutantTurkey | cool I see it |
| MutantTurkey | meaning? |
| MutantTurkey | it is not moderated. |
| Fat-Zer | i've seen that somewhere... |
| MutantTurkey | Fat-Zer: does the BUILD_ALL option work? |
| Fat-Zer | yes |
| MutantTurkey | sweet |
| MutantTurkey | i love git so much more than svn |
| MutantTurkey | I am going to loo kthrough all files |
| Fat-Zer | i haven't used svn a lot to say such things... but i like git too |
| MutantTurkey | its much faster |
| MutantTurkey | okay one thing that I see, that we havent used before is the target_SRCES thing but it's probably okay |
| Fat-Zer | there it is? it's probably a typo... |
| MutantTurkey | ? |
| MutantTurkey | I mean the fact that you use ${target}_SRCES |
| MutantTurkey | but inconsistantly |
| MutantTurkey | in SOURCES |
| MutantTurkey | either have them all like that or none I say |
| Fat-Zer | i used {}_SRCS and {}_SOURCES in one module... |
| MutantTurkey | consistancy is key |
| MutantTurkey | samelian was a real style nazi, but I am just looking out for maintainability |
| Fat-Zer | ok... I'll remove the _SOURCES =) |
| MutantTurkey | I say stop using the whole {}_SRCS thing, because we don't use it in any other modules |
| MutantTurkey | I want to keep it simple across the board |
| MutantTurkey | I don't see much advantage for it |
| MutantTurkey | thoughts? |
| Fat-Zer | you used it in kdebase... |
| MutantTurkey | did we? |
| MutantTurkey | okay then I misspoke. seems we are inconsistant :P |
| MutantTurkey | then stick withhte _SRCS and do with out the _SOURCES |
| MutantTurkey | you were right :) |
| Fat-Zer | eg in konqueror/CMakeList.txt |
| MutantTurkey | anywhere else? |
| MutantTurkey | oh yeah quite a few places |
| MutantTurkey | okay well carry on! |
| MutantTurkey | :) |
| MutantTurkey | Fat-Zer: other than that it looks very well done |
| Fat-Zer | thanks )) |
| MutantTurkey | :D |
| MutantTurkey | now don't tire.... only a few hundred more Cmake lists till all of trinity is done :P |
| Fat-Zer | great news =))) |
| MutantTurkey | well this will make it in for the release |
| Fat-Zer | one more about cmake: before relese we really need to make something with new commits to kdebase. |
| Fat-Zer | it still uses add_subdirectory() for several modules. |
| *** Fat-Zer has quit IRC |
| kb9vqf | Xu_R MutantTurkey: release is coming up fast...code freeze will likely go into effect this weekend |
| *** KingSphinx has joined #trinity-desktop |
| KingSphinx | This originally had the entire workforce behind KDE 3.5? Or was that referring back to when this was KDE's baby? |
| kb9vqf | back when this was KDE e.V.'s baby |
| kb9vqf | that was many years ago now (gosh, it's really been that long?!? ;-)) |
| kb9vqf | no, KDE e.V. dropped the KDE3.5 style like a hot potato as fast as they possibly could |
| kb9vqf | they are all about tablets and such now :-/ |
| KingSphinx | To be fair, it's still possible to set up a "traditional" desktop with Plasma, and 4.7's finally ironed out most of the annoying bugs (no more random desktop crashes... except when shutting down, oddly enough) |
| kb9vqf | yes, but for how long, and it's still a far cry from a "native" traditional desktop |
| kb9vqf | you hit the limits of their box around the desktop model pretty quick (e.g. what use do the RMB and MMB have on KDE4 really?) |
| kb9vqf | RMB = right mouse button |
| KingSphinx | Still more choice than GNOME Shell though. :/ |
| kb9vqf | and I still hate having to wade through what are essentially multi-level modal dialogs masquerading as "programs" |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| kb9vqf | of course |
| kb9vqf | but while medeocre compared to bad is relatively good, it's still not great... |
| kb9vqf | I guess that's my complaint about the latest versions of KDE4: it's a mediocre desktop at best |
| kb9vqf | Windows and Mac have it hands down |
| kb9vqf | BTW release is coming up soon...test the nightly builds and report any critical bugs ASAP! |
| kb9vqf | *very soon |
| KingSphinx | Do nighlies automatically upgrade to the final release or do they keep going on their own release channel? |
| KingSphinx | bleh, *nightlies |
| kb9vqf | no, you will have to manually switch your /etc/apt/sources.list to the release channel |
| kb9vqf | otherwise you'll keep pulling nightlies, which will grow unstable rather rapidly into the next release cycle for obvious reasons |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: yessir |
| KingSphinx | Does 3.5.13 really move everything to the Trinity namespace? (i.e. using .trinity instead of .kde3 for user stuff) |
| MutantTurkey | I need to get this kickoff patch |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: also hal broke randomly for me. I don't really know what's up except for kpower save doesn't work |
| kb9vqf | it moves a lot, but not all (e.g. we still use libkdecore.so, etc.)( |
| kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: HAL breaks sometimes like that--try purging all of HAL and reinstalling it |
| kb9vqf | that usually fixes the problem |
| MutantTurkey | ok |
| kb9vqf | and yes it's related to upgrades |
| MutantTurkey | also started transferring stuff over |
| MutantTurkey | http://www.trinitydesktop.org/wiki/bin/view/Documentation/DeveloperTutorial |
| KingSphinx | Would renaming my .kde3 folder help or would I just lose everything settings-related? (sorry for the questions, I'm just curious) |
| kb9vqf | KingSphinx: Yes you need to rename it--if you don't then Trinity will on first login |
| kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Good--just remember to change the links ;-) |
| kb9vqf | and get the kickoff patch in soon--I want to put in the code freeze ASAP |
| MutantTurkey | I am having trouble |
| MutantTurkey | I would like to enlist your help |
| MutantTurkey | I can send in stuff tomorrow, everything works except that it pops up in the wrong spot |
| MutantTurkey | I tracked it down to a function but I don't know why it works for the original panel and not the new one |
| kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Sorry, don't have much time with the release coming up, and besides as I memo-ed you the Kickoff code is a nasty piece of work |
| kb9vqf | I don't want to touch it with a 10 foot pole :-P |
| MutantTurkey | Ok |
| MutantTurkey | we might just have to wait on it th |
| MutantTurkey | then' |
| MutantTurkey | at least the patch to keep it from freezing should be in |
| KingSphinx | I always get Kickoff and Kicker confused @.@ |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| kb9vqf | kickoff is the OpenSUSE horrid thing |
| KingSphinx | The Creature From the KDE4 Lagoon? :P |
| MutantTurkey | isn't kickoff from kde4 originally? |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: the "repositories" that Ilya "maintains" are filthy layers of patches and hacks |
| MutantTurkey | I checked it out |
| kb9vqf | yes, I know |
| MutantTurkey | one thing I did see though |
| MutantTurkey | they have a kio module that provides sysinfo:/ |
| kb9vqf | might be worth looking into |
| MutantTurkey | http://kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=58704 |
| kb9vqf | file a needs-packaging bug |
| MutantTurkey | ok |
| MutantTurkey | seems like we are keeping on top of bugs recently :D |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: also with your gtk fixes, can I close off bug 546? |
| tbottu | 04Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=546 enhancement, P5, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, Graphical Issue - gtk-qt-engine |
| kb9vqf | Have you tried it? |
| kb9vqf | If it works then close the bug |
| MutantTurkey | it's the tab bar problems |
| MutantTurkey | I'll ask him to updated and retry |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: so for the release, when are we going to code freeze |
| MutantTurkey | timeline? |
| kb9vqf | code freeze is probably this weekend |
| kb9vqf | then my build farm has to catch up and we need to write release notes |
| kb9vqf | respin livecds, etc. |
| kb9vqf | still on target for a release Nov. 1st |
| kb9vqf | oneiric won't have LibreOffice built on release date, but that's a third party app anyway that always sucks down WAAAAY too much of my time :-P |
| KingSphinx | Meh, I already have LibreOffice installed, so no loss for me. |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: okay. |
| kb9vqf | well, you will lose your TDE integration if it gets updated from the official Ubuntu repositories |
| MutantTurkey | as for the release, are you making tarballs or what? |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| MutantTurkey | okay |
| MutantTurkey | so on that I will make arch packages |
| MutantTurkey | (hopefully) |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | as soon as code freeze happens all packagers should start building final binaries |
| MutantTurkey | and then Nov 1st, we start commiting patches again? |
| kb9vqf | no |
| kb9vqf | first we migrate to GIT |
| kb9vqf | that entails quite a bit of work unfortunately |
| kb9vqf | including repairs to the automatic process that run here to build the patch list, nightly builds, etc. |
| kb9vqf | *processes |
| MutantTurkey | okay |
| MutantTurkey | I have worked out more thoughts on tha |
| MutantTurkey | the way xfce does it is well done |
| MutantTurkey | I think you can "group" repositories with git in a frontend. |
| MutantTurkey | but a seperate repository for kdebase, kdeaddons, kdelibs, is in order |
| kb9vqf | the more complexity to the repository, the longer our downtime... |
| MutantTurkey | right |
| MutantTurkey | but one giant tree won't work |
| MutantTurkey | because git you cannot do git clone address/subdir/subdir |
| MutantTurkey | because of the internal hashing and checking system |
| MutantTurkey | so you would at the very least need it for kdelibs, kdebase, the basics |
| * kb9vqf understands |
| MutantTurkey | not sure about applications |
| kb9vqf | oh ick |
| kb9vqf | applications |
| MutantTurkey | what to do? |
| kb9vqf | this is where I start to wonder if GIT is such a good idea |
| kb9vqf | :-P |
| kb9vqf | I refuse to have a separate repository for each app |
| kb9vqf | I'll have to think about this I guess |
| kb9vqf | Either way expect sigificant downtime for the code repositories after release |
| kb9vqf | (this won't affect existing GIT repositories or any other services BTW) |
| MutantTurkey | right |
| MutantTurkey | there are quite a few advantages to git i think though |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: also there is a thing called submodules |
| kb9vqf | yes, I know, but the big disadvantage is the mandatory repository checkout size |
| MutantTurkey | I have to look into it |
| kb9vqf | look into it please :) |
| kb9vqf | and let me know |
| MutantTurkey | yep |
| kb9vqf | also I need to know how I'm going to migrate all the SVN changelog info to GIT |
| kb9vqf | we don't want to lose that |
| kb9vqf | but first get the kickoff patch where you need it |
| kb9vqf | and look into gtk-qt-engine for GTK3 while you are at it |
| MutantTurkey | I have been stuck on this kickoff thing for days. |
| MutantTurkey | literally frying my brains |
| MutantTurkey | I feel like its so obvious that I am choking. |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: I am going to sleep. looks like submodules or trees are the way to go |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: I got it |

| aquarius_ | hello? |
| aquarius_ | anyone there? |
| MutantTurkey | hey! |
| MutantTurkey | I am :) |
| aquarius_ | hi hi |
| aquarius_ | are you from Trinity crew? :) |
| MutantTurkey | yes thats me :P |
| aquarius_ | so nice to know |
| aquarius_ | have a few questions here |
| MutantTurkey | why whats up? |
| MutantTurkey | cool cool |
| aquarius_ | i really do appreciate that project, kde3.5 looks so classic |
| aquarius_ | even though i'm new to linux, but i find it cool. |
| MutantTurkey | :) you have tim to thank for that. He's the one who keeps the whole rig running |
| MutantTurkey | aquarius_: how long have you been using linux? |
| aquarius_ | well, for about one week i guess :) |
| MutantTurkey | wow so very new |
| aquarius_ | but i've already got along with it.. |
| aquarius_ | yep |
| MutantTurkey | very very :P |
| aquarius_ | indeed :) |
| MutantTurkey | how did you hear of trinity? |
| aquarius_ | well... i was looking for that original linux looks :) |
| aquarius_ | and then i realized that it's been cancelled and got a new cover in KDE4 |
| aquarius_ | but somehow i discovered Trinity later |
| aquarius_ | nobody told me about it... but i can't remember how i got onto it |
| MutantTurkey | kde4 blech |
| aquarius_ | well.. its not customizable... |
| aquarius_ | i mean... there's something about it that i didn't like |
| MutantTurkey | I don't like it much. |
| MutantTurkey | at all. |
| aquarius_ | me neither |
| aquarius_ | you know what.... your java plugin works unlike the one for gnome. Well... i'm using Debian :) |
| aquarius_ | the other one i just couldn't get to work! |
| MutantTurkey | debian is quite nice |
| aquarius_ | yeah, i like it |
| MutantTurkey | It's good |
| aquarius_ | but i have a couple of issues with kde... though hopefully solvable ones |
| MutantTurkey | with trinity?\ |
| aquarius_ | Yep. tell me.. why does it bring me to login screen every time i try to change resolution? And strangely if i pick a lower one |
| aquarius_ | i need 800x600 |
| aquarius_ | and to use that resolution i have to logon to Gnome first and then to log off and get onto KDE |
| aquarius_ | that way it works |
| aquarius_ | but yet it doesn't save it! |
| aquarius_ | so next time i restart it makes it high again, 1920x.... |
| aquarius_ | it puts it to maximum |
| MutantTurkey | what login screen are you using? |
| MutantTurkey | kdm or gdm? |
| aquarius_ | Trinity |
| aquarius_ | kdm |
| MutantTurkey | kdm then |
| aquarius_ | yeah. |
| MutantTurkey | ok |
| MutantTurkey | well it's probably something funky with your display driver and xorg config |
| aquarius_ | hmm..... |
| MutantTurkey | are you running the SVN or 3.5.12? |
| aquarius_ | erm... what's that? |
| aquarius_ | and how can i find out? |
| aquarius_ | ah.... |
| MutantTurkey | where did you install it from? |
| aquarius_ | from your website |
| aquarius_ | the way it was shown there |
| aquarius_ | from terminal |
| MutantTurkey | ok (sorry I have to look0 |
| aquarius_ | http://www.trinitydesktop.org/installation.php |
| aquarius_ | from here |
| aquarius_ | i just followed the instruction |
| MutantTurkey | okay |
| MutantTurkey | can you do this for me? |
| MutantTurkey | open up the menu, open up your system settings. there should be something that says "help" in the menu bar of the window |
| aquarius_ | sure |
| MutantTurkey | click on "about trinity" |
| MutantTurkey | that'll say what version |
| aquarius_ | 3.5.12 |
| MutantTurkey | okay |
| MutantTurkey | so basically you are running the stable version we have 3.5.13 |
| aquarius_ | oh really |
| MutantTurkey | we are about a week and a half from the release of 3.5.13 |
| aquarius_ | cool! |
| aquarius_ | that's so nice |
| MutantTurkey | it's gonna be pretty sweet |
| aquarius_ | i really wanna keep only to Trinity KDE |
| MutantTurkey | we actually have a dialog that will let you configure your display settings nicely |
| aquarius_ | you mean i definitely should look forward to it? :) |
| MutantTurkey | yes! it's gonna be good |
| aquarius_ | it's a deal :) |
| MutantTurkey | :) |
| MutantTurkey | you _could_ technically install the SVN version now if you wanted |
| aquarius_ | so far no serious probs detected.... perhaps only Konqueror that brings up some weird error. But actually in KDE 4.4 it brings up the same error, so i didn't count that... i read a bit about it on forums and it seems that there are many reason that might prevent this browser from functioning normally... |
| aquarius_ | what's SVN? Enlighten me please |
| MutantTurkey | SVN is just what we use to help organize our code |
| MutantTurkey | it's basically a code management tool |
| aquarius_ | surething... |
| MutantTurkey | and that is where we put all the new code in. |
| aquarius_ | let me do it |
| MutantTurkey | think of it as "nightly builds" |
| aquarius_ | wow.. i was just about to tell you that Synaptic doesn't work... but it works now |
| aquarius_ | somehow |
| aquarius_ | it didn't before |
| MutantTurkey | weird :| |
| aquarius_ | yep... |
| MutantTurkey | I don't use syanptic |
| MutantTurkey | I use kpackage |
| MutantTurkey | they are both good though |
| aquarius_ | yeah, i can use even aptitude |
| MutantTurkey | aquarius_: I actually have to split. it's getting late and I need to do some stuff |
| aquarius_ | but it's just faster with synaptic.. i've got used to it already having messed with gnome a bit :) |
| aquarius_ | ohhh.... |
| MutantTurkey | sorry :[ |
| MutantTurkey | but I'll see you around I am sure. :) |
| aquarius_ | it's ok mate... i'll be coming around since we've made contact |
| MutantTurkey | good night |
| aquarius_ | sure, night-night :) |

| KingSphinx | ...and out of boredom, I'm trying to port Trinity's default QtCurve theme to KDE 4. It's slow going, as you might imagine... |

| KingSphinx | Gah, I feel dumb. Turns out there's an "Export theme" option... makes my notes/documaentation on the settings near-useless. |
| MutantTurkey | KingSphinx: hey about kickoff |
| MutantTurkey | i noticed you posted earlier |
| MutantTurkey | I am making progress fixing it. |
| MutantTurkey | It is taking more time than I expected however. |
| MutantTurkey | I have it working as a regular button, but a I am still having trouble making it popup correctly in the right spot. |
| KingSphinx | I wouldn't really know since I don't use Kickoff in Trinity (it's a fine menu for KDE 4, and nothing more), sorry |
| MutantTurkey | i thought you asked about progress ealrier? |
| KingSphinx | Yeah, it's just that I don't really know what I could do to help. IMO, it sounds like something similar to a padding issue, but that's the only real thing I can give. |
| MutantTurkey | I mean i've tracked it down to what it wrong |
| MutantTurkey | but I don't know C++ well enough to fix it |
| MutantTurkey | still wroking it out |
| KingSphinx | Other than that, I don't really know what to say. And BTW, the Trinity QtCurve theme ports over rather nicely to KDE 4 :) |
| MutantTurkey | good! :) |

| kb9vqf | Z_God: No |
| kb9vqf | what is the error? |
| Z_God | I had problems with packages like perl-suid |
| kb9vqf | can you post the full output? |
| kb9vqf | everything builds on oneiric at this point...but installation was not teste |
| kb9vqf | *tested |
| Z_God | ok, sec, I will have to log on to my friend's notebook |
| kb9vqf | sure |
| * kb9vqf has no oneiric test system at this point |
| Z_God | ok, I'll put it in a pastebin |
| Z_God | http://pastebin.com/C0UPUF9Y |
| kb9vqf | Z_God: Looks like libglut3 was removed in oneiric |
| kb9vqf | ...and replaced with freeglut3 |
| Z_God | also perl-suid |
| kb9vqf | is there a replacement for that? |
| * kb9vqf goes to check |
| kb9vqf | (technically these packages aren't *dependencies* for Trinity to work, but the metapackage tries to pull in handy programs when it installs Trinity |
| Z_God | they are depends now it seem though, not recommends |
| kb9vqf | yes, I know, that's how Ubuntu did it originally and that's how I kept it :-P |
| Z_God | I don't know exactly how dpkg deals with missing recommends deps though |
| Z_God | ok |
| kb9vqf | it ignores them as it should |
| * kb9vqf thinks Ubuntu messed up again in their packaging |
| kb9vqf | oh well :0 |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| Z_God | you think you can solve it? |
| kb9vqf | perl-suid is completely gone |
| kb9vqf | that will probably affect a handful of control center modules (possibly) |
| kb9vqf | though they are obscure |
| kb9vqf | this is why I am activly trying to get rid of the remaining perl modules in Trinity (replacing them with C/C++ apps) |
| kb9vqf | perl changes too often and is relatively slow/buggy |
| Z_God | ok |
| kb9vqf | technically it's the add-on modules that are the problem, but straight perl isn't much use in a GUI |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| Z_God | I wonder if perl-suid couldn't just be ported to the newer perl though |
| Z_God | it would seem the quickest fix |
| kb9vqf | oh, probably, but I'd rather spend my time replacing the few remaining perl modules with C/C++ ones |
| kb9vqf | the big one is already done (monitor configuration) |
| Z_God | ok :) |
| kb9vqf | and we have a bunch of bugs to fix still ;-) |
| Z_God | do you think kmozilla would already be packaged for a release? |
| kb9vqf | not 3.5.13 |
| kb9vqf | the next one probably |
| Z_God | ok :) |
| kb9vqf | 3.5.13 comes out real quick now |
| Z_God | I hope I can get the signals the other way around to work |
| Z_God | as you saw, mozilla->konq is working |
| Z_God | but there are some issues with konq->mozilla |
| kb9vqf | someone with your knowlege level could probably start working on some of the bugs in our bug tracker... (hint hint) :)) |
| Z_God | I wish I had time |
| kb9vqf | yeah, I know |
| kb9vqf | I have the same problem |
| Z_God | the problem is that I have to spend quite a lot of time just reading the code |
| Z_God | I now know the structure of kmozilla |
| Z_God | so I know a bit where to look for things |
| kb9vqf | sure |
| kb9vqf | well, keep working on it then |
| kb9vqf | would be nice to have it in the next release |
| Z_God | I want to get those signals working so that back & forward can work |
| kb9vqf | I'm going to upload a new metapackage shortly with those dependencies repaired |
| Z_God | and then hopefully fix the bugs |
| Z_God | and only after that look at extra things like a context menu |
| kb9vqf | sure |
| kb9vqf | sounds good to me |
| Z_God | but the current code is already better than what SUSE shipped back in the day :) |
| kb9vqf | hehe |
| kb9vqf | It's actually active and builds, but I don't ship a Debian package (yet) |
| kb9vqf | hmmm |
| * kb9vqf wonders how much work that would be |
| * kb9vqf also wonders when the build is going to break because of Firefox |
| Z_God | I guess it never shipped in debian before, so there are no old scripts |
| Z_God | actually I tested it with natty |
| Z_God | against xulrunner-2.0 it compiles, but it doesn't link due to missing symbols |
| kb9vqf | right--it shouldn't be that hard, but I need to know ALL the files that are needed to make it run (.desktop files, .so files, etc.) |
| Z_God | against xulrunner-1.9.2 it fully works in natty |
| Z_God | so they removed some symbols from libxul which break it |
| Z_God | I wonder if we could indeed move this part to our own library or just copy the code to kmozilla and let it use the symbols that are still there |
| Z_God | the files needed to make it work are all installed with make install |
| Z_God | on the relevant dirs |
| Z_God | I don't know if you had a chance to test it yourself? |
| kb9vqf | no I have not I'm afraid |
| Z_God | one issue with the configure script btw. it tries to look for both gtk 1.2 and gtk 2.0 now |
| kb9vqf | pretty busy here trying to get as many bugs fixed as possible before the release :-/ |
| Z_God | if you'd have the headers of both installed, things could break |
| kb9vqf | it shouldn't break, because the flags for 1.2 and 2.0 are stored in different variables |
| Z_God | but the headers overlap |
| Z_God | both have things like gtk/gtk.h |
| Z_God | I think it breaks when both are in the include path |
| kb9vqf | yes, and if any Makefile.am file tries to include both header flag variables that is a Very Big Error |
| kb9vqf | such problems should be fixed immediately :) |
| Z_God | ah ok |
| kb9vqf | suid-perl is wanted by the Trinity file sharing module |
| kb9vqf | I'm moving that to recommends as I did with Squeeze |
| kb9vqf | I don't think it majorly breaks anything important |
| kb9vqf | BTW if you can tell me which files are installed by the mozilla plugin I can throw together a quickie Debian package... ;_0 |
| kb9vqf | :-) |
| kb9vqf | Z_God: ^^^^ Just pastebin the results of "make install" from your mozilla plugin directory |
| kb9vqf | that's all I need |
| Z_God | hmm, should be doable |
| Z_God | there will be 3-4 though |
| Z_God | because of dcopc and the separate xpart libs |
| kb9vqf | just pastebin the output; for now I'll throw it all into one package |
| kb9vqf | kde-bindings-extras or similar :) |
| kb9vqf | *tde-bindings-extras rather |
| Z_God | kb9vqf: http://pastebin.com/6AVEtyMf :) |
| kb9vqf | ok, thanks |
| * kb9vqf goes to throw something together |
| Z_God | great :) |
| kb9vqf | Z_God: I don't think I can compile this on the build system at this late of a date due to unknown dependencies, but I have added at least the .install file for future use |
| Z_God | yeah I can imagine it is a bit tricky with xulrunner & so on |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| kb9vqf | if I had a couple weeks before release then I'd try it |
| Z_God | also I think if we really want to package it properly, there should be a built-in solution for the environment variable issues |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | so I'm going to hold off |
| kb9vqf | the skeleton of the package is there |
| kb9vqf | it just needs to be activate ;-) |
| kb9vqf | *activated |
| kb9vqf | BTW the packaging is in GIT hash b54509d |
| Z_God | I'll be looking forward to it :) |
| kb9vqf | you just need to uncomment the lines in tde-xparts-extras-trinity.install and rebuild |
| Z_God | ok, maybe I will test it when some things work better |
| kb9vqf | tde-xparts-extras-trinity is the package name I gave all the xparts stuff |
| kb9vqf | sure |
| Z_God | I first need to get through the gsignals stuff |
| kb9vqf | good luck :) |
| Z_God | but not sure when I'll have time |
| Z_God | need to know about 500-600 words of polish within 5 weeks... |
| Z_God | same with russian, but luckily I already know quite a few |
| Z_God | really looking forward to 3.5.13 though, I really hope this release will hit multiple news sites & attract attention to the project :) |
| aquarius_ | me too :) |
| aquarius_ | long live Trinity |
| * kb9vqf hopes so as well |

| kb9vqf | Fat-Zer: What is broken about it? |
| kb9vqf | aquarius_: What graphics card do you use? |
| aquarius_ | the only way for me to get 800x600 is by loging in to Gnome and then to end the session without restarting and loging onto KDE. It's fine that way. But next time i restart it's all back again |

| Fat-Zer | as i wrote before tsak and krootbacking are buildet everytime... |
| Fat-Zer | and there is no conditional options for it |
| kb9vqf | Fat-Zer: Do you have a patch? |
| kb9vqf | aquarius_: Trinity does have the ability to set a default resolution, but if Xorg is crashing on XRandR access (bringing you back to the login screen) then you may not want to use it |
| kb9vqf | I would suggest setting up the proprietary fglrx drivers, then trying again |
| aquarius_ | hm... |
| aquarius_ | how do i do that? |
| aquarius_ | tell me please. |
| kb9vqf | I think there is a guide online--search for fglrx and ubuntu |
| aquarius_ | cause i didn't install any additional drivers.. |
| aquarius_ | i'm on Debian |
| Fat-Zer | i sended it to the ML several weeks ago. but now it needs one more condition for tqtinterface... |

| tbottu | 04Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=441 normal, P5, ---, kb9vqf, NEEDINFO, TDE's kdmrc defaults prevent kdm-trinity from working |
| aquarius_ | i just want to make it stay there |
| kb9vqf | ? |
| kb9vqf | You have to use the Gnome tool to set your resolution? |
| aquarius_ | exactly |
| aquarius_ | and it works that way |
| kb9vqf | the Gnome tool is more limited, and probably does not make the XRandR call that is crashing your driver |
| kb9vqf | this is an Xorg bug, not a Trinity one |
| kb9vqf | XRandR calls should never be able to crash Xorg |
| aquarius_ | maybe, but when i log out Gnome and get onto KDE at once it remains the same as in Gnome |
| kb9vqf | yes, it will |
| aquarius_ | drats... |
| kb9vqf | but you need to set that on startup, and the Trinity tools use XRandR extensively to do so |
| kb9vqf | (XRandR is a standard Xorg interface) |
| kb9vqf | Which version of Ubuntu are you using? |
| aquarius_ | Again: Debian |

| kb9vqf | aquarius_: If you can't (or don't want to) install fglrx then you can try waiting for the 3.5.13 release |
| kb9vqf | It *might* fix your problem |
| kb9vqf | then again it might make it worse |
| kb9vqf | it is hard to tell with Xorg bugs |
| aquarius_ | i just tried to install it |
| aquarius_ | but i guess it was just re-installed |
| aquarius_ | i've had it all this time.. not sure |
| aquarius_ | but thanks |

| kb9vqf | aquarius_: So you were using fglrx all this time? |
| aquarius_ | i guess so! |
| kb9vqf | That makes sense--it can be quite buggy |
| kb9vqf | Use the built-in tool to configure it |
| kb9vqf | don't use any of the desktop tools |
| kb9vqf | just because you got lucky with Gnome does not mean any other desktop's tools will work with that driver |
| aquarius_ | i understand/ |
| kb9vqf | Trinity included ;-) |
| aquarius_ | ok.. how do i configure it? Where can i find it& |
| kb9vqf | on my systems it's the ATI Catalyst Control Center |
| aquarius_ | hm... |
| kb9vqf | Look under System |
| aquarius_ | ok. |
| kb9vqf | with proprietary Xorg drivers it's always best to use their own configuration tools--that goes for nVidia as well ;-) |
| kb9vqf | Intel however is quite well supported by open-source drivers and tools |
| kb9vqf | and Debian also tends to lag behind where proprietary software is concerned |
| aquarius_ | hm.... weird, but i see nothing that sounds like ATI Catalyst Control Center here... |
| aquarius_ | ah |
| aquarius_ | no! |
| aquarius_ | actually i never had it installed |
| aquarius_ | it was a different driver named... |
| aquarius_ | xserver-xorg-video-radeon |
| aquarius_ | and i added fglrx, now it's there |
| kb9vqf | that is also quite buggy :-P |
| aquarius_ | there's two of them now... what should i do& |
| kb9vqf | Basically both drivers are buggy for ATI |
| aquarius_ | i see.. |
| kb9vqf | Google told me this: http://wiki.debian.org/ATIProprietary |
| aquarius_ | ok... thanks |
| kb9vqf | just use kdm-trinity instead of kdm or gnome3 |
| aquarius_ | yeah.. i have no control package... |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| aquarius_ | well that's what i do |
| aquarius_ | it's only kdm-trinity now |
| kb9vqf | Personally I highly recommend Intel and nVidia |
| kb9vqf | ATI has been a problem as long as I have been using Linux |
| kb9vqf | and continues to be a problem even today |
| kb9vqf | I know some laptops only have ATI...but where you have a choice... :) |
| kb9vqf | Some work is being done to fix the ATI drivers, but I can guarantee that it is not in Debian Squeeze: http://blogs.gentoo.org/nightmorph/2011/05/13/howto-radeonhd-4550-gallium3d-ut2004/ |
| kb9vqf | Ubuntu Oneiric possibly, but that comes with its own set of problems |
| kb9vqf | Isn't Linux fun? ;-) |
| aquarius_ | i see... |
| aquarius_ | yeah.. hella fun... |
| aquarius_ | Joke of the day: |
| aquarius_ | Difference between Windows and Linux: First one you use, the latter is for messing around ;) |
| aquarius_ | but man... people seem to like it. |
| aquarius_ | that's the point of living |
| kb9vqf | Funny...I would have them reversed |
| kb9vqf | Linux is the one you use, Windows is the toy for playing games and watching movies |
| kb9vqf | oh well |
| aquarius_ | anyways.. could the lack of propriatary drivers in turn be the cause of me not being able to adjust brightness and contrast in players? I mean nothing changes when i try to do that |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| aquarius_ | i see, thanks. |
| kb9vqf | np |
| aquarius_ | i guess people could have that reversed depending on which OS they're in love with ;) |
| aquarius_ | hm.... |
| aquarius_ | tell me one thing, why doesn't a new line (deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian squeeze main contrib non-free) appear in Software Sources manager but in sources.list does? |
| kb9vqf | No idea, sorry |
| kb9vqf | That's Debian specific and I don't use Software Sources |
| aquarius_ | ok. i see |
| aquarius_ | well... i kinda get it, cause for non-free stuff you just use checkbox there... |

| aquarius | hi MutantTurkey! |
| MutantTurkey | hey what's up |
| aquarius | look, i have a prob |
| MutantTurkey | yes? |
| aquarius | i installed ATI driver beside of the one that was installed by Debian... remember i told you that if i try to change resolution it brings me back to login screen? Well that driver solved that prob, BUT... it made some of my applications fonts tiny.. that was weird, so i decided to remove that driver for a while, and after i did it i couldn't logon any desktop anymore! |
| aquarius | all i have is console! |
| MutantTurkey | you should use the driver for your ATI card |
| aquarius | well that's what i did |
| MutantTurkey | small fonts is probably just trinity setting |
| aquarius | but it wasn't like that before.. |
| aquarius | oh well... |
| aquarius | anyways, it doesn't matter now, i wanna bring back ANY desktop |
| aquarius | i'm on windows now... |
| aquarius | maybe i could enlarge the font manually, but for a moment i thought that wasn't supposed to happen... |
| MutantTurkey | I mean it might just be whacky settings |
| MutantTurkey | it's easy to resize fonts |
| aquarius | yeah, i gotcha |
| aquarius | sure. |
| MutantTurkey | that might just do it |
| MutantTurkey | if theres still a problem, i'll be here |
| aquarius | but i thought it was some bug you know.. besides, kb9vqf told me before that ATI drivers for linux are still kinda cheesy.. |
| aquarius | sure, but could you help me to get onto any display manager now? All i have is console, i dunno what to do |
| aquarius | it happened because i removed the driver, but still i didn't remove the base one brought by initial Debian installation.. |
| MutantTurkey | they are kind cheese |
| MutantTurkey | do you have the xvesa one installled? |
| aquarius | no idea |
| aquarius | but don't think so |
| aquarius | by the way.. after i installed the driver i also felt like boxes were moving jerky... |
| aquarius | a bit |
| MutantTurkey | thats probably because the ATI module is a bit stinky |
| aquarius | but most importantly... i could switch between resolution modes... wheee. |
| aquarius | yep. |
| MutantTurkey | not much you can do |
| aquarius | i see.. |
| aquarius | ok.. let me try loging back on.. |

| aquarius_ | ok.. i'm back here |
| aquarius_ | anyone? |
| Fat-Zer | i'm here but i don't know a lot about amd.ati video cards... |
| aquarius_ | well.. everything is ALMOST well.... even brightness/contrast adjustment works.. but... font issue still.. |
| aquarius_ | let's say.. i've used 96dpi thing... now microfont apps seems to have gotten back to normal, but those which were alright before that have become larger... |
| Fat-Zer | sorry... i'm really indefferent to fonts looks, so i've never adjusted them at all... |
| aquarius_ | well, they don't seem to bother you that much... |
| aquarius_ | as long as you can read them and they don't take the most space on your screen your fonts seem to be ok ;) |
| Fat-Zer | =) |
| Fat-Zer | i even can't advice any utility to set them except kcontrol... |
| aquarius_ | it's not the font that's the issue... |
| aquarius_ | before i installed fglrx driver everything was normal.. |
| aquarius_ | even if i enlarge font some of it gets normal but some even bigger than normal, you see... so either one way or another you get shit |
| aquarius_ | and so far i see no solution to that.... |
| *** aquarius_ has quit IRC |
| *** aquarius_ has joined #trinity-desktop |
| aquarius_ | fixed!! |
| Fat-Zer | where was he problem? |
| aquarius_ | and i did nothing.... just restarted... now i got my 800x600 forever with all the adjustments enabled and normal font!! |
| aquarius_ | i have no idea mate |
| aquarius_ | all i did was messing a bit with ATI Control Center, saved the settings... but it brought something else in... |
| aquarius_ | and now it's all back to normal |
| KingSphinx | 800x600? Can your monitor support any higher than that? |
| Fat-Zer | may be you just haven't restarted since last driver upgrade... |
| aquarius_ | sometimes you have to restart several times... just to make sure everything's been done |
| aquarius_ | KingSphinx, yes, but it's CRT and 1024x768 doesn't look nice on it. But i'm planning on changing it in the nearest future. |
| aquarius_ | Fat-Zer, maybe. |
| Fat-Zer | CRT is hell... |
| aquarius_ | whee..... now i've got a total package. uuahahahahah, it's ALIIIIVEE |
| aquarius_ | well.. probably there are some other surprises waiting for me |
| aquarius_ | i just haven't discovered them yet |

| aquarius | hi |
| aquarius | anyone alive? |
| aquarius | alright... tell me, how can i solve Konqueror issue? First of all, is there any way to fix flash video problem in Konqueror OR how can i make alternative browser default one? I mean.. i doesn't matter if i assign it or not, it still opens Konqueror from some applications with links and such |
| Z_God | aquarius: when you assign another browser as the default for text/html it should always use that one |
| aquarius | Z_God, well no, that's the problem. It keeps launching Konqueror if i click on links in skype for example, or other messengers.... |
| Z_God | it's probably a bug in those programs |
| Z_God | they probably use their own setting for launching a browser |
| aquarius | maybe. |
| Z_God | I use Psi+ here for IM and it works fine |
| aquarius | i use just Psi |
| aquarius | i'm on Debian |
| Z_God | it should work as well |
| Z_God | it doesn't? |
| aquarius | well no, it launches Konqueror too. But let me check once again to make sure.. |
| aquarius | ah |
| aquarius | now it works |
| aquarius | BUT.... |
| aquarius | yeah... from Psi everything works |
| aquarius | now... let's try skype again.. |
| Z_God | skype is evil :P |
| aquarius | well yeah, but i need it ;) |
| aquarius | hey... just another stupid question: is it any possible to make KDE3.5 task panel look like KDE3.O one? |
| Z_God | probably yes |
| aquarius | i WISH I COULD DO THAT... |
| aquarius | those app buttons are better |
| Z_God | change the theme to keramik? |
| aquarius | they really get pushed |
| aquarius | nah... still not that... |
| Z_God | hmm dunno then |
| aquarius | there's no such thing in settings to make it look like KDE3... |
| aquarius | the difference is not that big.. but there surely is... |
| aquarius | let me show you.. |
| Z_God | I know there is a difference |
| Z_God | but it's been a few years since I used 3.0 ;) |
| aquarius | yeah... i know.. |
| aquarius | but i like its task panel more... there was something in it... oh well. |
| Z_God | I liked the KDE 1.0 one |
| aquarius | hehe |
| aquarius | well.. it's too much old... |
| aquarius | but yeah, nice too |
| aquarius | http://www.netbsd.org/gallery/in-Action/jschauma-kde3.png |
| aquarius | here. |
| Z_God | it's th de 2.0 look |
| Z_God | the kde* |
| aquarius | yes, but it's 3. 2nd looked also a bit more different. |
| aquarius | but almost the same |
| aquarius | http://linuxbook.orbdesigns.com/ch12/images/btlb1203.jpg |
| aquarius | here's 2nd |
| aquarius | look at the buttons... they're really pushed |
| aquarius | gives nice impression |
| Z_God | try the highcolor classic style |
| aquarius | tried man... all of them... tabs look almost the same for any of those styles.. |
| aquarius | no big difference |
| aquarius | it's only the frame that changes... |
| Z_God | hmm ok |
| aquarius | but the rest is the same. It's KDE3.5 after all. |
| aquarius | so yeah, some things are a bit different here... |
| aquarius | hmm.. now links work in skype too |
| aquarius | they get opened in Chromium |
| aquarius | nice. |
| aquarius | weird.. why didn't it work before.. |
| aquarius | anyways, Trinity did a good job. |
| Z_God | maybe skype fixed the bug on their end |
| aquarius | nah.. don't think so. It's probably IceWeasel that refused to be run... |
| aquarius | i wonder if Trinity can make new themes for KDE3.5... to make it look like KDE3 or even 2... |
| Z_God | I also only tested it with chromium ;) |
| aquarius | yep, see |
| Z_God | you could probably forward port the old themes |
| aquarius | yep... |
| aquarius | that's a good idea |
| aquarius | i'll try when they're back here |
| Z_God | they? |
| aquarius | guys themselves |
| Z_God | you mean the trinity devs? |
| aquarius | yep |
| aquarius | arent they here? |
| Z_God | yep, but it's not really liked they can spend much time on this really |
| Z_God | but patches, especially when they do not affect core components are easily accepted |
| Z_God | likely* |
| aquarius | hm.. |
| Z_God | so if you're really interested in this, you would have to try to get it to work yourself & then send in a patch adding the theme as an extra theme to the current trinity tree |
| aquarius | i see. |
| Z_God | the developers are mainly working on core features |
| aquarius | well.. i really don't know how to do it. |
| Z_God | and bugfixes |
| aquarius | yeah, i understood. |
| Z_God | can you program a bit? |
| aquarius | not really..... i used to do some simple stuff in Basic.... |
| aquarius | but that's about it. |
| Z_God | ok, you would need to have some C/C++ knowledge for this I guess |
| aquarius | yeah... probably.. |
| Z_God | but first thing to do would be to install a system with the older KDE |
| Z_God | maybe in a VM |
| aquarius | if only i could find it at first! |
| Z_God | then you can easily check which themes are being used for what |
| Z_God | then you look at the source code in the KDE tree related to this theme |
| aquarius | it's hard to find old KDE |
| aquarius | dunno where to look |
| Z_God | what I did when I had to do the same ;) |
| Z_God | I just went through my pile of old discs |
| aquarius | well yeah, good idea, but i never used linux in the past actually :) So basically it's first time i'm on it. I've been using it for one week or so :) |
| Z_God | ah I see |
| Z_God | I do not have any discs here myself |
| Z_God | but I have them at my parents' house |
| aquarius | i bet it can be found somewhere in the web.. the thing is, ive tried already, but i didn't find anything... gotta search for it deeper. And secondly... how do i find just KDE3 separately from any linux OS? |
| Z_God | if you're really interested, I could make ISOs & send them |
| Z_God | separate KDE is on the KDE website |
| Z_God | but it's mostly source code |
| Z_God | and compiling that on a modern distro won't really work |
| aquarius | hm... |
| Z_God | the easiest way is to just run it in a VM |
| Z_God | I set up a SuSE 8.0 VM when I wanted to test things with kmozilla |
| aquarius | hm... |
| aquarius | well, i'll think on it mate |
| aquarius | i'd really like to contribute something to Trinity |
| aquarius | and i bet those themes would make it even more popular. |
| aquarius | i'm pretty sure |
| aquarius | basically it's just to change buttons man |
| aquarius | and to add a couple of frames |
| Z_God | hehe, if you know knew how many articles were written about KDE theming ;) |
| aquarius | oh really |
| Z_God | there was really a lot of criticism with keramik as the default theme in the older KDEs |
| Z_God | a lot of things were changed also due to that |
| aquarius | it's not very pretty actually.... toooo posh |
| Z_God | because keramik was considered 'too much' in some ways |
| aquarius | yep |
| aquarius | exactly |
| aquarius | over the top |
| Z_God | so in all areas, such things were removed |
| Z_God | also what you are talking about now |
| *** MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop |
| aquarius | hi MutantTurkey ! |
| MutantTurkey | hey! |
| aquarius | i've solved all issues concerning video and such |
| MutantTurkey | how are you? |
| aquarius | it's all fine now :) |
| aquarius | now tiny font, nothing |
| MutantTurkey | excellent. how did you work it out? |
| aquarius | i dunno.. i just ran ATI Catalyst Center and saved the 800x600 mode |
| aquarius | now it starts always in 800x600 just like i wanted and no tiny fonyt |
| aquarius | brightness/contrast adjusment works too in players :) |
| aquarius | all fine |
| aquarius | by the way... i had to install the driver back in console through aptitude! |
| aquarius | remember i was saying that desktop doesn't launch? |
| aquarius | i had only console and i brought the driver back using only aptitude... i wasn't even sure if i could do it... |
| aquarius | but fortune was on my side |
| MutantTurkey | so now everything is oky? |
| MutantTurkey | you seem like a quick learner for only being a few weeks into linux! |
| aquarius | yep |
| aquarius | yeah, someone told me that already :) |
| aquarius | one linux user that has been on it since 2006 |
| aquarius | i consult him sometimes |
| MutantTurkey | I've been around for quite a while, but not too long |
| MutantTurkey | maybe since '07 |
| aquarius | listen.. we've been discussing here KDE2-3 themes... tell me, is it possible to port them to Trinity KDE? It implies everything, tab buttons on the taskbar, some other minor but probably known features of old KDE interfaces.... |
| MutantTurkey | kde 3.5 themes I am almost positive will work with trinity |
| MutantTurkey | you might have to recompile them but I think they are comptable |
| aquarius | KDE3.5? |
| aquarius | it's already there... no? |
| aquarius | i mean.. the desktop is just fine, but i wish i could use KDE3.0 or 2.0 desktops |
| MutantTurkey | the 3.5 themes should be compat with trinity |
| MutantTurkey | ? |
| aquarius | they are! |
| MutantTurkey | "desktops?" |
| aquarius | well, interfaces... |
| aquarius | task bar mainly |
| MutantTurkey | interfaces? |
| MutantTurkey | oh :P |
| MutantTurkey | is the current one not acceptable? |
| aquarius | acceptable! |
| aquarius | i just wish buttons were a bit different, just like in 2-3 :) |
| Z_God | MutantTurkey: aquarius has an old-school mood ;) |
| MutantTurkey | I am not familiar with how they used t obe |
| MutantTurkey | Z_God: I am aware :P |
| aquarius | Z_God, yess :) |
| MutantTurkey | Z_God: hey |
| aquarius | MutantTurkey, they looked almost the same, BUT.. |
| aquarius | a few minor distinctions |
| MutantTurkey | ah |
| MutantTurkey | dunno |
| Z_God | I already suggested porting them as separate themes from the old version |
| aquarius | http://www.netbsd.org/gallery/in-Action/jschauma-kde3.png |
| Z_God | they would probably only need minor changes |
| aquarius | yep. I think so too! |
| aquarius | http://linuxbook.orbdesigns.com/ch12/images/btlb1203.jpg |
| aquarius | 2nd |
| MutantTurkey | ah |
| MutantTurkey | they do look nice |
| aquarius | yep.. i do like the buttons.. they're really pushed, not just bolded.. |
| aquarius | i mean the effect was carried out nicely.. and overall so classic :) |
| aquarius | oh well.. it's just a question... but would be cool indeed |
| MutantTurkey | classic is good |
| Z_God | aquarius: if you could find the subversion revision in which this was changed, it would be a huge help |
| aquarius | i'll do my best if you tell me what Subversion revision is? |
| MutantTurkey | I am sure that we could add a patch |
| MutantTurkey | aquarius: remember I mentioned SVN? |
| aquarius | yes |
| MutantTurkey | that is the acronym for subversion. |
| aquarius | ah! |
| MutantTurkey | so subversion is a "versioned control system" |
| Z_God | I have to leave now, good luck guys! :) |
| aquarius | wow! |
| MutantTurkey | basically we can see any changes made into the code |
| aquarius | bye bye Z_God |
| aquarius | nice talking to you mate |
| MutantTurkey | cya Z_God |
| Z_God | bye! |
| aquarius | MutantTurkey, interesting! |
| aquarius | what you do guys is a good deed indeed |
| MutantTurkey | and then when we make changes we "check" it into svn |

| aquarius | welcome back :) |
| MutantTurkey | aquarius: :D |
| aquarius | look.. i have another question.. |
| aquarius | what's wrong with Konqueror anyway? Should i even bother with him or just use alternative browser? |
| MutantTurkey | what's wrong with konqueror? |
| MutantTurkey | At this point, there are browsers that do a much better job than konqueror, so why not use a browser that is developed actively |
| MutantTurkey | ? |
| MutantTurkey | We will be porting Konqueror over to Webkit though |
| MutantTurkey | It's on the "list" |
| MutantTurkey | I still use Konqueror for everything else though, it's a great file manager |
| aquarius | there's only one prob with it: it crashes on flash media |
| aquarius | and yes, i tried to reassign it to webkit.. but didn't work.. |
| aquarius | as file manager it's ok at this point.. but as browser it lacks something.. |
| aquarius | though i'm not saying it's bad, it's because of some crosslinking issues |
| *** delight has quit IRC |
| MutantTurkey | aquarius: It has some issues |
| MutantTurkey | we are holding off on them till 3.5 |
| MutantTurkey | i mean 3.6 |
| MutantTurkey | I think |
| MutantTurkey | we need to get this release out before we look at that |
| aquarius | ok :) |
| aquarius | by the way, in KDE4.4 there's the same prob |
| aquarius | i tried it |
| *** joeytwiddle has quit IRC |
| MutantTurkey | yeah :| |
| MutantTurkey | isn't KDE4.8 out? |
| aquarius | yes, but i installed latest Debian along with its KDE.. it was 4.4... |
| aquarius | didn't upgrade to anything.. |
| aquarius | well, i just tried it, now i'm on Gnome + Trinity |
| aquarius | and of course, i'm using KDE right now :) |
| aquarius | by the way, can i get rid of Gnome? |
| aquarius | i mean completely |
| MutantTurkey | hmmm |
| MutantTurkey | sudo apt-get remove gnome-desktop? |
| aquarius | let's try... but i'm not sure |
| MutantTurkey | not sure |
| aquarius | "Just open Synaptic, search for 'gnome' and remove any packages that you do not want on your system. Obviously, some of the gnome-libs may have to stay as part of your base install. This is to be expected." |
| aquarius | by the way.. question... |
| MutantTurkey | yes? |
| MutantTurkey | there should be a gnome group |
| MutantTurkey | actually, so you can uninstall them all at once |
| aquarius | what if i don't need Kopete for instance, may i delete it? cause it gets lotsa dependencies, including some package by the name "trinity-network". What does it mean? |
| aquarius | as for gnome group... in Synaptic "Gnome" environment as such appears to be not installed (probably newer version, but not the one i have) |
| MutantTurkey | hmmm |
| MutantTurkey | weird |
| *** joeytwiddle has joined #trinity-desktop |
| *** KingSphinx has joined #trinity-desktop |
| aquarius | weird what? |
| aquarius | that Gnome is not installed or that kopete takes a whole bunch of other things along if deleted? |

| MutantTurkey | let him know |
| Z_God | I talked with him about it yesterday |
| Z_God | it seems he removed only part of the deps that were not in oneiric |
| MutantTurkey | as lon gas he knows |
| Aquarius | i deleted Gnome |
| Aquarius | now it's only Trinity :) |
| MutantTurkey | we are not going to have oneiric ready till the 1st |
| MutantTurkey | Aquarius: excellent :D |
| Aquarius | :) |
| Z_God | yesterday there were even more packages as deps which weren't in oneiric |
| Z_God | I understand the goal is to have it working for the release |
| MutantTurkey | yes |
| MutantTurkey | that is the goal |
| Aquarius | Opera is the best for Debian |
| MutantTurkey | opera is quite nice |
| MutantTurkey | I wrote my own browser however, it's quite to my liking |
| Aquarius | yes... it works better with java than anything else |
| Z_God | I was wrong about libqt-perl it seems to be a trinity package now, but it goes deepr |
| Z_God | deeper* |
| Aquarius | IceWeaseal jerks on it... Chrome doesn't execute it normally (some display glitches), but Opera just fine |
| Aquarius | i didn't delete it by the way! |
| Aquarius | i saw it |
| Z_God | ah yes, it depends on the wrong perl version |
| Aquarius | IceWeasel doesn't work with java anymore..... |
| Aquarius | dunno whyh |
| Aquarius | other browsers do |
| Z_God | Aquarius: try to open about:plugins |
| Aquarius | hm.. ok |
| Z_God | and see if java is listed |
| Aquarius | it opens, but it acts weird... gets stuck |
| Aquarius | never finishes the script |
| MutantTurkey | java just stinks |
| MutantTurkey | Z_God: what else? |
| *** MutantTurkey has quit IRC |
| KingSphinx | Wait, Trinity won't build on Oneiric? |
| *** MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Z_God | KingSphinx: it builds, but doesn't install yet ;) |
| *** MutantTurkey is now known as MobileTurkey |
| Z_God | MobileTurkey: I made a pastbin |
| KingSphinx | Ye gads, hope that's fixed before the release date... |
| Z_God | the issue is that libqt-perl depends on a old perl version |
| Z_God | http://pastebin.com/UJjBvrb5 |
| KingSphinx | Fun stuff. >_>; |
| MobileTurkey | change the depend |
| KingSphinx | Though judging from that, I see that it's now kubuntu-desktop-trinity instead of kubuntu-desktop-kde3 :) |
| Z_God | I don't know who all has access to the build scrips the quickbuild system uses |
| Z_God | but I guess tim will have to fix this |
| MobileTurkey | KingSphinx: it's been kubuntu-desktop-trinity |
| MobileTurkey | the only reason kubuntu-desktop-kde3 package still exists is as a transistion package so that if you originally had it, it would continue t owork |
| Aquarius | can anyone tell me how do i execute gz package? |
| Aquarius | to install application |
| Aquarius | the thing is, i deleted that tool along with many other gnome apps :) |
| Aquarius | now i'm looking for alternative thing |
| Z_God | gz is just compression |
| Z_God | it stands for gzip |
| Aquarius | i know, but there was an app that unpacks/installs it instantly |
| Z_God | ark |
| Z_God | you should install ark-trinity |
| Z_God | it's a front-end for the gzip tool |
| Aquarius | aha.. ok |
| Aquarius | thanks |
| Aquarius | but i think i have it |
| Z_God | then you should be able to open the file with it |
| Z_God | but gzip is just a way to compress a single file |
| Z_God | anything can be in there |
| Aquarius | it just opens it as an archive, but how do i install the app? |
| Z_God | I don't know what you have |
| Z_God | but you only told us about a compressed file ;) |
| Z_God | if there is something special inside this gzip compression, and you also want to do something with that, you need to provide a bit more info |
| Aquarius | it's application that's supposed to be installed |
| Aquarius | Opera |
| *** Fat-Zer has joined #trinity-desktop |

| Z_God | why use a proxy? |

| Aquarius | people do lotsa stuff seemingly without any decent reason :) |
| *** KingSphinx has quit IRC |
| Aquarius | thanks |
| Aquarius | ok, i'm using deb now |
| Aquarius | i mean Kpackage to install it |
| Z_God | but opera won't have a gz package that can be installed |
| Z_God | either they have the executable compressed with gzip |
| Aquarius | i see. |
| Aquarius | thanks |
| Aquarius | Z_God, and where are you supposed to be from? :) |
| Z_God | or they would have a whole collection of files packed together with tar |
| Z_God | and then compressed with gz |
| Z_God | which would just extract to a subdirectory |
| Z_God | Aquarius: you couldn't find it out? ;) |
| Aquarius | no |
| Z_God | it seems the same way I used with you, works with my ip address |

| Z_God | да, конечно :) |
| Aquarius | spreek je russisch ook? Of gebruikte je wat vertaler toen je mij iets zei? :) |
| Aquarius | echt waar? |
| Z_God | nee, geen vertaler |
| Z_God | ik kan een beetje russisch |
| Aquarius | oke... nog een nederlander die wat russisch kent! |
| Aquarius | kunt* |
| Z_God | ik zit trouwens in België atm |
| Aquarius | ja.. waarom? Heb je een russisch vrouw of heb je gewoon interesse om russisch te leren? |
| Aquarius | aha.. oke |
| Z_God | vooral interesse |
| Aquarius | aha.. oke. |
| Z_God | ik leer hier ook pools |
| Aquarius | ohh..... |
| Aquarius | ik zou het nooit willen leren :) |
| Z_God | hoezo niet? waarom wel Nederlands dan? |
| Aquarius | haha.. goeie vraag... |
| Aquarius | kan je eigenlijk niet vertellen kerel... had ook maar wat interesse daarna gaf ik op maar toch kan ik er al wat van he.. dus gebruik ik het af en toe :) |
| Aquarius | ik dacht dat het bijzonder is :) |
| Z_God | ja, je bent best goed |
| Z_God | ben je ook in Nederland geweest? |
| Aquarius | nooit :) |
| Aquarius | of Belgie |
| Aquarius | ik ben eerlijk gezegd nergens geweest behalve mijn eigen land :) |
| Z_God | dan is het helemaal bijzonder! |
| Aquarius | haha, jaa... zegt dat iedereen, hah :) |
| Z_God | in Nederland spreekt eigenlijk bijna iedereen ook wel Engels, vandaar dat weinig mensen snel Nederlands leren als vreemde taal |
| Aquarius | ja, dat weet ik wel... |
| Aquarius | meest buitenlanders wonen er al lang en kunnen ze nog steeds niet een woord nederlands, en hier zit je naast wat rus (die eigenlijk in Moldavie woont, derde wereld!) en kunt ie wel wat nederlands! Haha..... |
| Z_God | yep, de meeste buitenlanders die ik tegenkom hebben bijna geen nederlands nodig... |
| Z_God | alles is in het engels op universiteiten enzo |
| Aquarius | ja... |
| Aquarius | voor jullie is dat een soort dialect ofzo... maar ik vind het toch leuk :) |
| Z_God | enigszins wel ja, maar als je hier echt wil integreren dan heb je het eigenlijk wel nodig |
| Z_God | met alleen engels val je wel overal buiten |
| Aquarius | heb ik ook van gehoord :) |
| Aquarius | snap ik.. |
| Aquarius | hoe heet je kerel? |
| Z_God | kan je dat niet zien? ;) |
| Aquarius | Z_God? :) |
| Aquarius | kom maar.. |
| Z_God | welke IRC client gebruik je? |
| Aquarius | X-chat |
| Aquarius | ah |
| Aquarius | Julius |
| Z_God | je zou m'n naam wel moeten zien |
| Z_God | yep |

| Aquarius | ken je zo'n naam toch |
| Aquarius | aangezien heb je interesse aan russisch |
| Z_God | ja, zeker |
| Aquarius | oke |
| Z_God | zit je ook op vkontakte? |
| Aquarius | erm... ja, maar ik heb er geen fotos op.. |
| Aquarius | ik hou niet van sociaal netwerk |
| Aquarius | om eerlijk te zijn :) |
| Z_God | misschien 'ns een trinity groep maken |
| Aquarius | ja hoor.. goed idee |
| Z_God | Fat-Zer: are you on vkontakte? we're talking about a trinity group |
| *** schreiberstein|a has quit IRC |
| Aquarius | hey... misschien is het nu al tijd om weer eens engels te praten? :) Ik heb niks tegen nederlands, altijd graag, maar die mensen zijn ook benieuwd waarover wij het hebben :) |
| Z_God | ja, prima :) |
| Aquarius | :) |
| Aquarius | but are you originally from Netherlands? |
| Aquarius | just a couple of hours ago i've met one nice dutch girl at a game of pool :) |
| Aquarius | on playforia website.. |
| Z_God | yes |
| Z_God | I moved to belgium only a month ago |
| Z_God | but my stacks of CDs with Linux distros are still in the Netherlands ;) |
| Aquarius | hmm.. i see :) |
| Aquarius | is it better in Belgium? |
| Z_God | 2nd education is *much* cheaper here ;) |
| Aquarius | mm.. |
| Aquarius | i see. |
| Aquarius | damn.. i should've been sleeping by now.. haven't sleep all night and day long... |
| Z_God | what's the time there? |
| Aquarius | 10:30 |
| Z_God | you should talk with Fat-Zer btw |
| Aquarius | well for me it's pretty much late |
| Aquarius | surething |
| Z_God | I don't fully get his sleeping hours either ;) |
| Aquarius | well... actually i'm already tired of constant shifts in my schedule.... |
| Aquarius | i hate sleeping during a day! |
| Z_God | what kind of job do you have? |
| Aquarius | erm... would you mind if i don't tell? :) |
| Aquarius | well.. actually i'm a freelancer. |
| Aquarius | but i don't get orders regularly. |
| Z_God | in which area? |
| Aquarius | some translations, minor headhunting, sorting out stuff and making database for.. one dutch guy :) |
| Aquarius | he's SAP consultant |
| Aquarius | in The Hague. |
| Aquarius | he gets me to do some business too. |
| Aquarius | occassionally. |

| Z_God | looks bettre now |
| Z_God | better* |
| Aquarius | let's see... |
| Z_God | maybe one on G+ as well |
| Z_God | and facebook |
| Aquarius | yeah, well done :) |
| Aquarius | but it's more like KDE only... better to put there TDE too... |
| Aquarius | oh |
| Aquarius | sorry |
| Aquarius | it's T |
| Aquarius | weird... never noticed that.. |
| Z_God | hehe ;) |
| Z_God | it used to be a K ;) |

| Z_God | I don't think so... |
| *** schreiberstein has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Fat-Zer | Z_God: so you can't open svg immages too? |
| Z_God | ah no, just opening them should allow viewing |
| Z_God | but maybe you need smth like ksvg installed |
| Z_God | I thought you meant for the icons in the DE itself, I think those are all converted to PNG or XPM |
| Z_God | konqueror's SVG renderer is extremely slow as far as I can remember though |
| Z_God | I need to leave now |
| Z_God | Fat-Zer: good luck! |

| Aquarius | hi |
| Fat-Zer | Aquarius: hi |
| Fat-Zer | are you running trinity svn version? |
| Aquarius | how's it kicking bro? |
| Aquarius | erm.. just 3.5.12 |
| Aquarius | is svn = nightly builds? |
| Fat-Zer | yes... |
| Fat-Zer | i've got problems with svg images... don't know there is the problem... |
| Aquarius | i see. Well, i don't even know what that is. |
| Aquarius | hm |
| Aquarius | what kinda problem&& |
| Aquarius | maybe i have to go and check on it too |
| Aquarius | and also report back if any issue |
| Fat-Zer | can't set it as a background/can't watch with konqueror internal module... |
| Aquarius | ah.. |
| Aquarius | you mean you can't use svg images to use as a background for your desktop? As for Konqueror - it's full of bugs, so don't bother, it's ok |
| Aquarius | they gonna fix it a bit following next upcoming release of KDE. At least that's what they say. |
| *** schreiber|afk is now known as schreiberstein |
| Fat-Zer | I just need to know if somebody has the same problem in svn... |
| Fat-Zer | becouse the problem can be in my kdelibs or qt builds... |
| Aquarius | i see. Well.. let me do it too. |
| Fat-Zer | or even in my system libraries... |
| Aquarius | hm |
| Aquarius | i don't even see SVG anywhere.. i mean i can't convert anything to it |
| Aquarius | i'm more concerned about sound issues i keep getting every now and then... |
| Aquarius | have you installed pulseaudio? |
| *** Fat-Zer has quit IRC |
| *** Fat-Zer has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Fat-Zer | Aquarius: no... i haven't ever used it... |
| Aquarius | the thing is.. i'm compelled to use it, cause i keep getting problems with Skype, Flash and Wine |
| Aquarius | they crosslink somehow and sound goes off |
| Fat-Zer | you can find some svg's in ${KDEDIR}/share/wallpepers/ |
| Aquarius | ah, ok |
| Aquarius | let me see |
| *** thistle_ has joined #trinity-desktop |

| Aquarius | hmm |
| Aquarius | wait a minute... |
| Fat-Zer | sorry, i can't help with sound issue... as i sad i've never installed it and i belive that pulseaudio arts and other sound daemons are evil. and i'm currently trying to run trinity in vbox. |
| *** MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Fat-Zer | MutantTurkey: hi! |
| Fat-Zer | got some time? |
| MutantTurkey | yes sir! |
| Aquarius | Fat-Zer, the thing is, i don't feel much like messing with PulseAudio, but i DO have to do it, 'cause there's no other way i can solve my audio probs. Apparently they haven't yet corrected many things in either desktop environment. |
| Aquarius | hi MutantTurkey |
| MutantTurkey | hey :) |
| Fat-Zer | MutantTurkey: i've got troubles with svg's |
| Fat-Zer | can you try to set it e.g. as desktop wallpaper? |
| Aquarius | listen, i don't have such folder even |
| Aquarius | there's no kde folder in usr |
| Fat-Zer | you are running svn version isn't it? |
| MutantTurkey | I think Aquarius is running 3.5.12 |
| Fat-Zer | Aquarius: it depends on distributin... |
| Aquarius | yep, i told him already |
| MutantTurkey | Fat-Zer: why what's up? |
| MutantTurkey | Aquarius: I think everything is in /opt/trinity |
| Aquarius | aha, gotcha |
| Aquarius | i knew it.. just forgot |
| MutantTurkey | anyone seen Xu_R or kb9vqf? |
| Fat-Zer | you should replase /usr/kde/3.5/ with directory where all trinity stuff goes to... |
| MutantTurkey | it should be in /opt/trinity... |
| MutantTurkey | at last that is what we are using |
| Fat-Zer | MutantTurkey: haven't seen kb9vqf since sunday.... |
| MutantTurkey | havent seen him in a few days |
| Aquarius | well, it works for me |
| Aquarius | svgz |
| MutantTurkey | Fat-Zer: so what s the problem with svg? |
| Aquarius | brb.. restart |

| Aquarius | hey everybody |
| MutantTurkey | hey |
| MutantTurkey | I feel like a big jerk, I just bailed on band practice for my dad's church ( filling in for bass player while he's away) because I got tickets for the concert i want to go to |
| Aquarius | hm.. |
| MutantTurkey | I don't care that much |
| MutantTurkey | but if she cant find someone to cover for me (she wont be able to ) |
| MutantTurkey | I cant go to this concert |
| MutantTurkey | but I got my buddy to loan me 30 bucks and buy me the ticket to go with him, a few hours ago |
| MutantTurkey | so what do i do? :| |
| Aquarius | well... what happens if the church lacks a bass player just once? :) |
| Aquarius | i really dunno dude.. |
| Aquarius | i'd not want to let them down actually... if they rely on me |
| Aquarius | but what depends is neccesity... what is more important at that point? Church or concert... and we should consider possible consequences, which is worse, you not having been on the concert or your absence at church? :) |

| KingSphinx | thistle_: Not yet, they should be available when 3.5.13 is released (November 1st if I remember correctly). |
| thistle_ | Thanks. I had to go with 11.10 because of my new hardware. |

| MutantTurkey | last seen kb9vqf or Xu_R? |
| MutantTurkey | this release is definitely helping bring out some bugs and get them squashed though:) |
| MutantTurkey | which is execellent |
| *** kb9vqf-offsite has joined #trinity-desktop |
| kb9vqf-offsite | MutantTurkey: See the tail of the channel log ehre: v |
| kb9vqf-offsite | http://www.trinitydesktop.org/irc/logs_current.html |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf-offsite: :) hey. |
| MutantTurkey | keep up the le awesome work! |
| kb9vqf-offsite | did you see the tail? |
| kb9vqf-offsite | I'd also like your help with the release notes if you don't mind |
| MutantTurkey | yes I can help |
| kb9vqf-offsite | I really don't feel like picking through the SVN changelogs--basically someone needs to do that and flesh out the outline that I started on the Wiki |
| kb9vqf-offsite | http://www.trinitydesktop.org/wiki/bin/view/Documentation/Releases_3_5_13 |
| MutantTurkey | you might want to post that little bit about oneiric on the nanounce as wel |
| kb9vqf-offsite | yes, probably |
| kb9vqf-offsite | I don't have a lot of time, donations are practically nonexisteent, and I can't justify working on LibreOffice at the moment |
| MutantTurkey | so what do you think the most efficent way to do this is? |
| kb9vqf-offsite | ? |
| MutantTurkey | yeah Libreoffice is low proity |
| MutantTurkey | to work up the release notes I mean |
| MutantTurkey | go through the patches page? look at the git revisions for Qt3 |
| kb9vqf-offsite | yes |
| MutantTurkey | should we mention that we are maintaining Qt3 ?? |
| kb9vqf-offsite | I posted the TDE 3.5.13 starting revision on the Wiki |
| kb9vqf-offsite | go forward from there |
| MutantTurkey | okay I see it |
| kb9vqf-offsite | I did mention it on the Wikiactually :) |
| kb9vqf-offsite | about Qt3 that is |
| MutantTurkey | okay awesome |
| MutantTurkey | this release is already ramping up users |
| kb9vqf-offsite | With no LiveCDs I cant pull useful screenshots |
| MutantTurkey | at least we have people sending in last minute patches |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf-offsite: I will just make a "default" account and run trinity and take some screens? |
| kb9vqf-offsite | not reeally--last minute bug reports w/o patches is more like it |
| MutantTurkey | it looks identical |
| MutantTurkey | that too :x |
| kb9vqf-offsite | yes, just make a default account |
| MutantTurkey | and take some pictures? |
| kb9vqf-offsite | I didn't have any time for artwork so it will probably look exactly like 3.5.12 :-P |
| kb9vqf-offsite | yes |
| MutantTurkey | who cares. |
| kb9vqf-offsite | right |
| MutantTurkey | looks mean nothing because my default trinity looks nothing like regular trinity |
| kb9vqf-offsite | the look is pretty well stabilized at this point anyway |
| MutantTurkey | right |
| kb9vqf-offsite | default look that is :) |
| MutantTurkey | you see it and think "oh look it's KDE3.5 |
| MutantTurkey | very iconic/recognizable |
| kb9vqf-offsite | so for larger features that you notice in the changelog fire up the changed app and take a screenprint of the new feature |
| kb9vqf-offsite | e.g.t he monitor configuration tookl |
| kb9vqf-offsite | *tool |
| MutantTurkey | right |
| kb9vqf-offsite | thanks :) |
| kb9vqf-offsite | did you notice the little note on the bottom iof the IRC channel log? |
| kb9vqf-offsite | (before we started this conversation) |
| kb9vqf-offsite | you might be interested |
| kb9vqf-offsite | :) |
| MutantTurkey | about the liveCD? |
| kb9vqf-offsite | below that |
| kb9vqf-offsite | where I ramble on about something |
| * kb9vqf-offsite is being cryptic on purpose |
| MutantTurkey | about the low power processors? :p |
| MutantTurkey | intel atom *cough* *cough* |
| kb9vqf-offsite | armel |
| kb9vqf-offsite | we now have armel builds |
| kb9vqf-offsite | you know, for netbooks :) |
| MutantTurkey | that is awesome |
| MutantTurkey | some arm processors are actually quite powerful |
| MutantTurkey | look at the beagleboard or pandaboard |
| MutantTurkey | they are well capable of running basic things, as well as trinity |
| kb9vqf-offsite | right |
| kb9vqf-offsite | and it's more likely for Trinity to be usable than, say, KDE4 |
| kb9vqf-offsite | Trinity could be a killer desktop there :) |
| MutantTurkey | I am really excited |
| MutantTurkey | because of GNOME3 and Unity are so ridiculous |
| kb9vqf-offsite | can you also handle the oneiric announce to the mailing list? |
| kb9vqf-offsite | I am trying to get things in order here |
| MutantTurkey | yes. |
| kb9vqf-offsite | thanks |
| kb9vqf-offsite | getting the packages copied |
| MutantTurkey | announce + devel + users? |
| kb9vqf-offsite | yes |
| * MutantTurkey will be honest and say he hasn't even started on the arch builds |
| MutantTurkey | are you going to produce tarballs for us? |
| kb9vqf-offsite | make it good, triple check speling/grmr |
| kb9vqf-offsite | on the 28th or 29th |
| MutantTurkey | i'll get my dad to proof read it. |
| kb9vqf-offsite | probably the 29th |
| MutantTurkey | He's quite the nazi in that regard |
| kb9vqf-offsite | :) |
| kb9vqf-offsite | I'm seeing if any more critical bugs are going to crawl out of the woodwork in the next couple of days before firing tarball builds |
| MutantTurkey | should I mention the ARM builds on the release notes? |
| kb9vqf-offsite | that process alone could take 6-8 hours, then the upload could take another 12-24 hours after that |
| kb9vqf-offsite | yes |
| kb9vqf-offsite | note that they are onyl for Squeeze |
| kb9vqf-offsite | and rather untested due to a lack of ARM hardware here |
| * kb9vqf-offsite wouldn't mind a donated Ubuntu ARM netbook for testing :) |
| MutantTurkey | but you are cross compiling so in *theory* it should work |
| kb9vqf-offsite | *Ubuntu-ready |
| kb9vqf-offsite | I'm actually native compiling on qemu |
| kb9vqf-offsite | so it darn better work! |
| MutantTurkey | okay thats good too |
| kb9vqf-offsite | 48 hours for koffice...the 400MHz emulated ARM is not very powerful |
| kb9vqf-offsite | though I can run 8 of them at once so it kind of makes up for the low speed |
| kb9vqf-offsite | anyway let me know when you have the release notes ready |
| kb9vqf-offsite | if I'm not here shoot me an Email |
| * kb9vqf-offsite probably WONT be here |
| *** KingSphinx has joined #trinity-desktop |
| kb9vqf-offsite | MutantTurkey: You have Wiki access, correct? |
| MutantTurkey | yes sir |
| kb9vqf-offsite | ok |
| kb9vqf-offsite | just Email me when it's ready |
| MutantTurkey | I doubt it will be before tonight is up |
| kb9vqf-offsite | I'd prefer to have it in a couple days |
| kb9vqf-offsite | *within |
| MutantTurkey | we have people coming from germany on a high school exchange |
| kb9vqf-offsite | so I can proofread it |
| kb9vqf-offsite | ok |
| MutantTurkey | my mom is the head of foreign language at her district, so it's all hell for her |
| kb9vqf-offsite | I can imagine |
| MutantTurkey | leaves me to clean the house :x |
| MutantTurkey | but anyway, I only have 3 more rooms to go |
| MutantTurkey | :) |
| MutantTurkey | and then i'll get on the release notes |
| kb9vqf-offsite | sprechen sie Deutsch? |
| MutantTurkey | and announcement about oneiric |
| MutantTurkey | yah! |
| MutantTurkey | no very badly. I am quite competent at understanding it. |
| MutantTurkey | Ja rather :p |
| kb9vqf-offsite | very, very badly kindergarten level here too :-P |

| Aquarius | hi |
| Aquarius | any living thing? |
| Strangelv | "Maybe |
| * Strangelv should be asleep by now |
| Strangelv | "What are you thinking of for combining the KDE 2 theme? Graphical elements only, or structural ones too? |
| * Strangelv doesn't remember KDE 2 very well |
| Aquarius | oh, so you've read it |
| Aquarius | well, basically i'd like to bring back old taskbar. There are some minor things that make me feel better |
| Strangelv | oenly this part: <Aquarius> so... how's the idea of integrating KDE2/3 themes? :) |
| Aquarius | nice tab buttons |
| Strangelv | "and seeing the KDE 2 screenshot |
| Aquarius | yeah, i've been talking about it for a few days |
| Aquarius | people like KDE2 style. As i said, basically it's only taskbar that looks a bit different from 3.5 |
| Strangelv | "I'm horribyl distracted and about to get even moreso: I'm trying to participate in National Novel Writing Month. Trying to work out my characters and outlines before the starting gun |
| Strangelv | I've long longed for choices with the taskbar |
| * Strangelv was quite happy with the Windows 2000 taskbar |
| Aquarius | yeah.. you can't really customize it FULLY... there are some gaps... |
| Aquarius | i love Win 2000, but i can't install it anymore..... |
| Aquarius | and all because of shitty ATI drivers |
| Aquarius | those are not supported with Win2k anymore... |
| Aquarius | http://www.kde.org/screenshots/images/large/kde2final_2.jpg |
| Strangelv | "I bought a still shrinkwrapped box off of EBay a couple of years ago when I couldn't find any f my CDs for it, but still don't have it up and running anywhere. I'm about to bera kdown and rebuild a K7 system to run it on and host my Windows disks so I can network them and look for missing files there |
| Strangelv | hmm |
| Strangelv | "I'll keep in mind I may need to hunt around for a video card specifically for that system |
| Aquarius | here's KDE2.... mainly it's only nice tab buttons (windows like that are really PUSHED and not just bolded) and nice frame for the tray section which is missing in KDE3.5.. i like that frame. |
| Aquarius | ok :) |
| Aquarius | i don't even know where to get that version even... |
| * Strangelv always runs his taskbar verticalyl on the left side and has since Windows 95 |
| Aquarius | i never did that.. |
| Strangelv | "So I can't actually compare it that well with what I have running on my machine |
| Strangelv | "It makes even moer sense now than when I did it then, given that most displays are 16:9 these day-s |
| Strangelv | "vertical screen area is precious; horizontal is cheap |
| Strangelv | "moreso with this display than others -- it's 1360x768 |
| Aquarius | http://89.28.122.14:8080/snapshot18.png |
| Aquarius | my desktop |
| Strangelv | "The difference is more subtle than I can tell. Then again, I've also been awake too long |
| Aquarius | perhaps that's the case |
| Aquarius | :) |
| Aquarius | but there IS a difference... tabs are first of all fainted and secondly when active they're just bolded... sometimes i don't notice good which is active and which is not |
| Strangelv | fainted? |
| Aquarius | in KDE2 it was just at best... in KDE3.0 too, but they already started to deviate back there |
| Aquarius | yeah, app names look dusky |
| Strangelv | "Pushed in or not pushed in depending on whether or not it's maximized? ...or on top? |
| Aquarius | listen, tabs are not being pushed in KDE3.5. They just change colour and font fades in |
| Aquarius | and bolds |
| Aquarius | and that's it |
| Strangelv | "ja. I finally figuerd out that they are in KDE 2... so this is the option you want to return? |
| Aquarius | YES!!! |
| Aquarius | i want it so bad |
| Strangelv | "Sorry that I'm being dense over here... need to look up a phone number and get to sleep |
| Aquarius | it's alright mate... i've been there |
| Aquarius | unfortunatelly pretty much recently... and probably gonna get there once again pretty much soon |
| Aquarius | however.... by me it's different.. usually i get more alert and sharpminded when i'm exhausted |
| Aquarius | i mean specifically due to lack of sleep. |
| Aquarius | not by any other means. |
| Aquarius | http://digit.que.ne.jp/visit/image/2004.10/coLinux_002.jpg |
| Aquarius | here's KDE3.0 |
| Aquarius | but as i said.. it's already slightly deviated, like something was pushing them by the balls to make those buttons less impressive. |
| Strangelv | "So when are thep pushed in and when are they not pushed in? |
| Aquarius | as you see, active (pushed) tabs are not even darkened here |
| Aquarius | when active |
| Aquarius | when you click on it, maximise the window |
| Aquarius | it's about "pushed". |
| Aquarius | and when not it's obviously inactive app tab. |
| Aquarius | pushed = maximized and active. |
| Aquarius | in KDE3.5 dusky tabs are usually not maximized and apps are in the tray, but for some reason they stay on taskbar too. I can't explain that, it's beyond my comprehension :) |
| Aquarius | but i personally think it's redundant. |
| Aquarius | it only brings one in confusion. At least me.. |
| Aquarius | http://www.digibarn.com/collections/screenshots/KDE%203-0-x/kde3-snapshot2.jpg |
| Aquarius | here's another KDE3 shot |
| Aquarius | tabs are pushed, but not much impressive this time. But at least i can SEE that it's pushed and active. |
| Aquarius | i wish it was at least like that |
| Aquarius | http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/e/e3/Kde2.2.2-1.pnghttp://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/e/e3/Kde2.2.2-1.png |
| Strangelv | "Describe the desired as an option historical behavior and file it as a feature request in http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net? |
| Aquarius | hm... ok :) |
| Aquarius | but a bit later. Anyway you're gonna sleep now. |
| Strangelv | Hopefully |
| Aquarius | by your comeback it'll be done i guess. |
| Aquarius | just do it man... |
| Strangelv | I'm also not a particularly useful person to explain these things to normally. I do need to learn enough of the packaging system to start replacing graphics, but that's probably going to be the limits of my activitiies. Also, not before December |
| Aquarius | sure. We can wait :) |
| Aquarius | but listen, it should be just an extra feature for KDE3.5 styles option. |
| Aquarius | there's only "classic KDE" thing, it should be like "KDE2", "KDE3" and so on |
| Aquarius | that'd be great. |
| Aquarius | people will stick to Trinity |
| *** Z_God has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Z_God | Aquarius: did you still research in which svn revisions the changes were made to the themes? |
| Z_God | this is very important if you really want these things to return again |
| Aquarius | sorry.... i'm here now |
| Aquarius | now.. tell me one thing... |
| Aquarius | is that "SVN" here supposed to be revisions of Trinity as such? |
| Aquarius | then they may not exist... for how long has Trinity existed anyway? |
| Aquarius | i really dunno where to start. |
| Z_God | yes |
| Z_God | it's about the revisions |
| Z_God | all this info was always kept, you can back endlessly in the past, also starting from trinity |
| Z_God | you can really get a copy of every single version of every single file from trinity throughout the years from the start of the KDE project |
| Z_God | and svn can show you the exact changes as well, including who committed (made) them and the commit message associated with it |
| Aquarius | i didn't know that |
| Z_God | that's why I'm telling you :) |
| Aquarius | thanks! |
| Z_God | every decent software project keeps this info |
| Z_God | because it can be very important |
| Z_God | as important as the code itself maybe |
| Z_God | in this case, I would suggest checking out the part of trinity svn containing the themes |
| Z_God | and reading through the commit logs of some of the important theming files |
| Z_God | there is a lot of documentation available for svn, you should look at these functions in particular: co (checkout), log, blame and diff |
| Aquarius | ok! |
| Aquarius | where do i look?.. |
| Aquarius | i mean.. is it on a website? |
| Aquarius | let's check.. |
| Aquarius | found it.. |
| Aquarius | hmm... |
| Aquarius | http://websvn.kde.org/branches/trinity/ |
| Aquarius | which folder, could you tell? |
| Z_God | there is ome stuff in kdeartwork it seems |
| Z_God | some* |
| Aquarius | aha |
| Aquarius | ok |
| Z_God | btw |
| Z_God | did you see this? |
| Z_God | http://kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=27731&forumpage=0&PHPSESSID=cewbuhgq |
| Aquarius | yeah, but it's only window style, besides Trinity has it too. |
| Aquarius | i'm interested in the Taskbar mostly |
| Z_God | ok |
| Z_God | it may give some hints though |
| Aquarius | Revision 132826 - (view) (download) (as text) (annotate) - [select for diffs] |
| Aquarius | Modified Mon Jan 21 02:32:05 2002 UTC (9 years, 9 months ago) by gallium |
| Aquarius | Original Path: trunk/kdeartwork/styles/Makefile.am |
| Aquarius | File length: 17 byte(s) |
| Aquarius | Diff to previous 118689 |
| Aquarius | Clean out all the old lingering KDE2 styles. |
| Z_God | http://websvn.kde.org/branches/trinity/kdelibs/kstyles/ |
| Z_God | seems there are the main styles |
| Z_God | also look at rev. 514714 |
| Aquarius | ok |
| Z_God | http://websvn.kde.org/branches/trinity/kdelibs/kstyles/plastik/plastik.cpp?view=log |
| Z_God | seems this give a lot of info |
| Z_God | plastik was only added in kde 3.3 or smth like that though |
| Z_God | but you get the idea on where to look :) |
| Aquarius | yeah, but why do you keep tracking plastik stuff? |
| Z_God | I don't know where the changes are |
| Z_God | but I think they could be in there |
| Z_God | you could also consider the kicker sources |
| Z_God | http://websvn.kde.org/branches/trinity/kdebase/kicker/taskbar/taskbar.cpp?view=log |
| Aquarius | it's first of all KDE2/3.0 and classic styles |
| Aquarius | no plastik |
| Aquarius | ooh.. let's see |
| Aquarius | Add initial support for Kicker "Deep Buttons", a more highly textured style than the normal "flat" Kicker GUI |
| Aquarius | Add preliminary GUI and configuration structures needed for hot-resizing panels |
| Aquarius | maybe this is it... |
| Z_God | 406411' |
| Z_God | I think that one could be it |
| Aquarius | let's see |
| Aquarius | halo'd text, and three new options for taskbarrc: |
| Aquarius | DrawButtons |
| Aquarius | HaloText |
| Aquarius | ShowButtonOnHover |
| Aquarius | these probably won't make it into the config dialog like this, however. |
| Aquarius | i'm considering adding a "profiles" mechanism so you can pick between, |
| Aquarius | for instance, "Classic" / "Zen" / "Transparency" |
| Aquarius | 406819 |
| Z_God | try those out! |
| Aquarius | :) |
| Aquarius | ok :) |
| Z_God | it seems there used to be smth called mtaskbar in the past to do the reverse of what you want btw: http://web.archive.org/web/20060116025418/http://www.uni-weimar.de/~wolff3/index_taskbar.html |
| Z_God | I guess DrawButtons is the one you want from those options |
| Aquarius | yep |
| Aquarius | and a couple of frames |
| Aquarius | i want a frame for tray section |
| Aquarius | just like it was in KDE2 |
| Z_God | "Turning this option on will cause the taskbar to draw visible button frames for each entry in the taskbar. \n\nBy default, this option is off." |
| Aquarius | well... they are visible even NOW... but they're not pushed equally to KDE2/3 |
| Aquarius | they just bold |
| Aquarius | by default it's off, yes. |
| Z_God | I just quote this description of the option |
| Z_God | the* |
| Aquarius | i see |
| Z_God | so edit your taskbarrc and kill & restart kicker ;) |
| Aquarius | :) |
| Z_God | I have to go off now |
| Z_God | will be interesting to hear if you get some things to work :) |
| Z_God | good luck! |
| Aquarius | see ya :) |
| Aquarius | thanks |

| ivansorokin | how can I install TDE on ubuntu oneric? I looked in http://www.trinitydesktop.org/installation.php but it has PPA only for maverick and before. |
| ivansorokin | also, is there any plans about future of TDE? qt4 porting or something? |
| Aquarius | new versions for sure ;) |
| Aquarius | 3.5.13 is coming up soon. |
| Aquarius | i'm not one from the crew, so i can't tell. |
| Aquarius | by the way, today i encountered the same problem, tried out Ubuntu, but couldn't find Trinity KDE for it. |
| Aquarius | so i just gave it up. |
| Aquarius | привет, кстати. |
| ivansorokin | привет |
| ivansorokin | =) |
| ivansorokin | how do you how I know russian? |
| Aquarius | doesn't your name tell? :) |
| ivansorokin | ye, that's right |
| Aquarius | so i'm just holding on to Debian, i've already got used to it, and i find Ubuntu overly plastic and mainstream and actually uncomfortable. |
| ivansorokin | I think I'll send my questions to mailing list |
| Aquarius | try. |
| ivansorokin | I was thought to switch to debian many times, is it really better? |
| Aquarius | i like it more. |
| Aquarius | and i chose it immediatelly as i decided to check out linux in general. I dunno why, i guess i liked the name in first place ;) |
| Aquarius | and yeah, it's not too bloated, it's not too complicated and yet not childish, it's just fine. |
| ivansorokin | and one more question. Is TDE more stable that KDE4 (for example KDE 4.7)? |
| Aquarius | can't tell, by me it works just fine. No errors and stuff... although i'm not doing that much yet, so i dunno. As for KDE4, i didn't use it for long, i can only tell that i didn't really like it :) That's about as much as i can tell you. |
| ivansorokin | " it's not too bloated, it's not too complicated and yet not childish, it's just fine." -- that's sounds good |
| Aquarius | yep. You might as well try it out. |
| ivansorokin | I definitely give it a shot |
| Aquarius | BUT... personally i'm having some sound issues. Minor but quite disturbing sometimes. But let this not be a specimen of Debian stability to you, 'cause it could be some software/hardware incompatibility... i dunno... but i have probs with skype. |
| Aquarius | even if you do get some probs, you can fix them i believe. Even i can do it. But you have to study those mixers and stuff... Alsa/PulseAudio and such |
| Aquarius | try it, you might not get ANY trouble... but im just telling you that Debian ain't 100% perfect either. So you may expect some dirty tricks. Though if you get rid of them then it'd be once and for all. |
| Aquarius | Debian looks more serious and it has old Gnome interface if not KDE chosen. |
| Aquarius | not that Unity crap in latest Ubuntu |
| Aquarius | just plain standard Gnome. |
| Aquarius | not to mention that you can install TDE on it easily. |
| jumpship | I believe tde pkgs for oneric will be out on the first of the month, I know it's being worked on, but I don't follow ubuntu stuff very close |
| Aquarius | me neither. I dunno anything about it. I just tried it out today to see if i get the same sound issues. |
| Aquarius | well... i didn't really check on it deeply.. i got fed up of the whole crap OS faster than i could actually find out. |
| ivansorokin | KDE4 totally pissed me off when I read this bug (https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=154535 -- a bug to allow to remove nasty useless "plasma" button) |
| tbottu | 04Bug 154535: was not found. |
| Aquarius | i didn't like the way it looks in first place. I like classic appearance. Without no plasma/aero/Win 7 impersonating crap. |
| jumpship | ubuntu is debian at it's base, some difference, but very similar |
| Aquarius | in other words, long live Trinity :) |
| Aquarius | jumpship, , we know :) |
| Aquarius | and HEY! |
| Aquarius | man, where have you been? :) |
| ivansorokin | I can cope with it looks |
| Aquarius | ivansorokin, not me. |
| ivansorokin | but i can't copy when some tells me: you don't know how to use your desktop, We'll teach you how to use you desktop |
| ivansorokin | *copy->cope |
| tbottu | 10New TDE 3.5 bug 571 filed by humanreadable@yahoo.com. |
| tbottu | 04Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=571 normal, P1, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, dbus-qt package names are unclear |
| ivansorokin | I just wondering what a crazy guys manage KDE now |
| Aquarius | thought on using Gnome instead? |
| ivansorokin | yes, it's the same crap |
| ivansorokin | "you don't need to have this option" |
| Aquarius | it's Unity |
| Aquarius | i suppose. |
| Aquarius | but if you want old Gnome then again you can try Debian. |
| ivansorokin | i'm not a gnome fan really |
| Aquarius | i see. |
| ivansorokin | Aquarius do you have a SIP accout? |
| Aquarius | what's that? |
| ivansorokin | voicechat |
| ivansorokin | like skype |
| Aquarius | ah.. no.. why? |
| ivansorokin | but free as in freedom |
| Aquarius | well skype is also free. You don't pay to make it work, do you ;) |
| ivansorokin | free as in "free speech", not "free beer" |
| Aquarius | i don't dig your analogy to be honest. Don't you speak for free in skype? Sorry for being too much straight/ |
| ivansorokin | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gratis_versus_libre |
| Aquarius | whatever |
| ivansorokin | long story short, free software is not about cost, it has other definition. Realy free software can be sold. |
| jumpship | wasn't skype bought by Microsoft? |
| Aquarius | jumpship, i heard that too. |
| Aquarius | ivansorokin, what do you care if you can use it for free? |
| ivansorokin | it can become not free one day |
| jumpship | Thats a very old discussion, and if you've never been burned by free cost but closed software, you luckier than me |
| Aquarius | ivansorokin, so? Wait till that happens and then we shall see. Anything can become not free one day. |
| ivansorokin | and I don't want to force other people to use skype, because I'm doing so. |
| Aquarius | neither am i forcing anyone. |
| Aquarius | i'm using it because i've got lotsa people there to talk and today it's the only messenger known by me that allows me to voicechat. |
| ivansorokin | "Anything can become not free one day." -- not really, I hope software under GPL never will become not free. |
| ivansorokin | "i'm using it because i've got lotsa people there to talk and today it's the only messenger known by me that allows me to voicechat." -- i understand |
| ivansorokin | let's change the topic |
| ivansorokin | could somebody explain me why pulseaudio is neccessary? Why not use ALSA directly? |
| jumpship | ivansorokin: if you really want to use oneric, I'd wait a few days (nov 1st) trinity went into freeze and tim is prob building pkgs as we speak |
| ivansorokin | ok |
| Aquarius | in my case i had to install it, 'cause also couldn't take on multistreaming audio. Something was taking over always. |
| Aquarius | PulseAudio does it better. |
| ivansorokin | will they be available in PPA? |
| Aquarius | meaning... i would play music for instance in a player and i'd try using skype at the same time or playing youtube/flash video, and it would jam |
| Aquarius | some people are content with ALSA only. |
| ivansorokin | what is "multistreaming audio"? |
| Aquarius | when you have multiple sources, not just one |
| ivansorokin | "would play music for instance in a player and i'd try using skype at the same time or playing youtube/flash video, and it would jam" -- really? |
| Aquarius | example: skype audio + flash audio/video, music player etc |
| Aquarius | yes. That's my prob. |
| Aquarius | and it's still there, and i wanna kill it once and for all. |
| ivansorokin | I have see this on my PC. |
| Aquarius | but it's better now. Pulse does its magic. |
| Aquarius | you mean you've experienced the same? |
| ivansorokin | never |
| jumpship | it hadware dependant |
| Aquarius | yep, exactly jumpship |
| jumpship | it's hardware dependant |
| jumpship | some hardware can mix |
| Aquarius | it's probably my hardware not complying entirely with the software |
| jumpship | alsa is supposed to use it's dmix plugin when the hardware can't, but it's been iffy for me |
| *** MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop |
| ivansorokin | to be honest, I experienced the opposite. When pulseaudio daemon was running sound didn't work. Even the programs that use ALSA directly. |
| Aquarius | i had the same |
| Aquarius | there was no sound at all |
| Aquarius | jumpship helped me. You can make it work, but it may take shitloads of time... |
| MutantTurkey | o/ |
| MutantTurkey | what is this? |
| Aquarius | many people tend to have problems with pulse, which is why most of them are not really fond of it. You can see here and there on the web that pulseaudio is damn shit and so on |
| Aquarius | hey MutantTurkey |
| Aquarius | :) |
| jumpship | alsa is just a mess, I spent a lot of time trying to understand, and I still don't |
| MutantTurkey | hey |
| MutantTurkey | alsa isn't so bad:P |
| MutantTurkey | alsa is okay, the random other systems are bad |
| jumpship | Have you seen the docs? |
| MutantTurkey | see this |
| MutantTurkey | http://blogs.adobe.com/penguinswf/files/penguinswf/linuxaudio.png |
| jumpship | I hate the sound servers too, they only exist because of problems with alsa |
| ivansorokin | jumpship, i agree that alsa is the mess too |
| Aquarius | it's not optimized for many devices yet. |
| ivansorokin | but i'm not sure one's can create a working system on top of buggy |
| jumpship | well, it's more of a, if alsa was better, things could be cleaner |
| Aquarius | so yeah.. either you're lucky or you work your ass off to make it function at its best. |
| jumpship | I'd rather just see all programs use jack and jack use hardware direct, but dreaming it don't make it happen |
| ivansorokin | jack has cleaner api tha alsa? |
| ivansorokin | *than |
| jumpship | I don't know about the programming end, I like jack from a user end |
| ivansorokin | why it is better from user end? |
| Aquarius | because he likes it more :) |
| Aquarius | it suits his personal needs |
| ivansorokin | and ALSA don't? |
| jumpship | I just like being able to route audio on the fly |
| jumpship | alsa and jack are different animals, alsa is low level |
| ivansorokin | a bad thing is that everybody what one working api, not a 3 buggy ones |
| MutantTurkey | JACK is where its at |
| MutantTurkey | get on it. |
| MutantTurkey | it's the best in my opinion |
| MutantTurkey | especially for routing needs. |
| MutantTurkey | but then again, if you're not mixing music you don't need it |
| MutantTurkey | pulse is stepping up, but it still stinks |
| ivansorokin | i don't use routing really,and i'm really don't know why i need it =) |
| MutantTurkey | EXACTLY |
| MutantTurkey | thats why we don't need all these layers |
| MutantTurkey | 1st of all, OSS needs to go away. it's been dead for a long time AFAIK |
| ivansorokin | i heard OSS is used in FreeBSD |
| MutantTurkey | it should just be ALSA - {jackd, pulseaudio} - {gstreamer,phonon} |
| MutantTurkey | thats it |
| MutantTurkey | left is lower |
| ivansorokin | so it is the only one portable interface |
| MutantTurkey | i hate gstreamer and phonon but still |
| MutantTurkey | its good for programmers that dont want to deal with it |
| Aquarius | MutantTurkey, is Konqueror gonna be fixed in 3.5.13? |
| ivansorokin | gstreamer and phonon are not similar to DirectShow, which I hate with passion |
| MutantTurkey | yes its fixed |
| MutantTurkey | Aquarius: if you are talking about the certs |
| MutantTurkey | Aquarius: right now we are in a complete code freeze though |

| Z_God | Aquarius: search for this file in your .kde3 or .trinity directory |
| Z_God | I think it was taskbarrc |
| Z_God | open it in a texteditor |
| Aquarius | aha |
| Z_God | and it should be more obvious how to change options |
| Z_God | not all options in it actually have a UI to change them |
| Z_God | and some you may even had to add yourself |
| Aquarius | i got it |
| Aquarius | interesting, i'll try |
| Aquarius | for now i have another prob.. featuring skype again.. i can't host the calls |
| Aquarius | i mean technically i can, but sounds gets very cheesy... it's like breaking up badly.. however, the others hear me well. |
| Aquarius | i wonder how can i solve that... |
| Z_God | use a decent program to host calls I'd say.... |
| Z_God | it's obviously a problem with skype itself, and it's closed source |
| Z_God | if you need something easy, I would advice Google+ for now |
| Z_God | not free either, but at least it works |
| Aquarius | probably... |
| Aquarius | the thing is.. i don't care for skype that much... but the people i know use it... |
| Aquarius | so what do i do, tell them all to use Google+ instead just because i'm getting problems with running skype on linux? |
| *** MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop |
| *** MutantTurkey is now known as A |
| A | Aquarius: yes tell them that. |
| *** A is now known as MutantTurkey |
| Aquarius | haha |
| Aquarius | great... |
| *** KingSphinx has quit IRC |
| Aquarius | but other people don't have problems with skype on linux... even in Debian... |
| Aquarius | damn... i think i'll just have to keep on fidgeting with pulseaudio settings.. |
| MutantTurkey | oh pulse? |
| MutantTurkey | blech |
| *** jmma has joined #trinity-desktop |
| *** MutantTurkey has quit IRC |
| Aquarius | yep... |
| Aquarius | i had no other choice, with only ALSA my audio acts a way too funny |
| Aquarius | with Pulse it's so-so, but better. |
| *** KingSphinx has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Aquarius | as jumpship has already stated, it's hardware dependant. |
| Aquarius | i dunno about Ubuntu though... but in Debian i'm definitely having some audio probs. |
| Aquarius | anyhow, that doesn't make my move to Ubuntu or any other linux based OS. I love Debian. |
| Aquarius | but audio apps in Debian have to be improved nevertheless. |
| Aquarius | first time i had probs with all the audio sources... i couldn't play audio in player and on youtube at the same time, there were taking over each other. |
| Aquarius | now it's fine. |
| Aquarius | but skype is still acting funny. |
| Aquarius | but nothing jams it at least. |
| Z_God | skype never works properly |
| Z_God | it's protocol is flawed in many ways |
| Aquarius | i see... |
| Aquarius | what problems did you have? |
| Z_God | crap quality, messages do not arrive half of the time |
| Z_God | and of course it uses its dirty routing tricks |
| Aquarius | didn't have the above said probs. |
| *** MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Z_God | but both the software is not free |
| Z_God | and the network is completely closed |
| Z_God | even when you want to phone other voip phones, you need to pay |
| Z_God | I refuse to use software which intentionally limits its users, just to get more money |
| Aquarius | the thing is, skype was intended not to VoIP primarily but to voicechat within skype network as such. As for those extra features - nobody's pushing you to use them, after all they were never available for free in skype, so why to bring it up... i'm not speaking in favour of skype right now, i'm just pointing out the possible irrelevance of the remark given.. |
| Aquarius | as for basic chat and voicechat it's been handling it pretty much fine |
| Aquarius | for free |
| Aquarius | and you don't have to buy skype initially to make it work, to enter any serials and stuff like that. |
| Aquarius | but i'm not arguing on the point that it's a shitty software. Perhaps it is. But if anything people all around the world have been using skype mostly in order to voicechat.. so.. conclusions.. |
| *** rzs19 has joined #trinity-desktop |
| rzs19 | hello |
| rzs19 | i'am writing a small dock for tde, with superkaramba. http://netdragon.sourceforge.net/api.html#robo45 - createBackgroundImage. At first 6 Arguments and a little bit down, there stands 4 Arguments. Strange? |
| rzs19 | well so i mus tcreate an image an resize the image, to get something like the background. |
| Z_God | Aquarius: it has artificial limitations put in on purpose |
| Z_God | this is enough reason for me to avoid it ;) |
| Z_God | and I will recommend friends to do the same |
| Aquarius | i understand) |
| Aquarius | however... when it comes to instant access and easy installation skype is the first thing people know.. most of them at least. Imagine you got a girlfriend from abroad and she wants to talk with you, and she uses only skype and she doesn't know what other software to use... what would you do? Refuse to talk with her? :) |
| Aquarius | thats the problem... |
| Aquarius | i guess you'll just install skype and get it over with :) |
| Z_God | I've had this case |
| Space_Man | rzs19: looks like the API has a typo |
| Z_God | we're using gmail now |
| Space_Man | other functions use long w -- width, long h -- height |
| Z_God | I could have installed skype, but it's so broken anyhow, why bother |
| Z_God | my friend also told me she has loads of problems with it, so I probably just saved us a lot of frustration with that :) |
| Z_God | I have people asking me often enough about an alternative for skype to know how broken it is |
| rzs19 | yep i have tested it, it doesnt work, it needs only 4 arguments and not 6(but without width and height it makes no sense). |
| rzs19 | tomorrow comes 3.5.13? *cantwait* :P |
| KingSphinx | I have absolutely no idea how to fix your problem, but it's really nice to see people still developing widgets for SuperKaramba. :) |
| Aquarius | :) |
| rzs19 | well i have seen that all docks are death and the code was a little bit ugly, so i started with my own. |
| KingSphinx | I know SuperKaramba is in KDE 4, but it just seems thrown in as an afterthought. |
| rzs19 | well i have used kde4 for a long time, but its not so powerful like tde/kde 3.5.* |
| KingSphinx | It just seems to fit in better in Trinity IMO. |
| rzs19 | yep, kde 4 has its plasma widget. |
| rzs19 | does any one use the universal sidebar? |
| KingSphinx | Also, while Plasma is very extensible, I don't like how it tries to manage the *entire* desktop... if one thing goes wrong, the entire desktop crashes. It also goes against the UNIX philosophy of having one application doing one thing well. |
| rzs19 | kde 4 is too heavy, it has not too less buttons to manage settings and needs too much ressources. |
| rzs19 | and i don't like the "maybe we should drop x11 and only start using wayland" statement. |
| KingSphinx | Tell me about it... Trinity uses only half the RAM KDE 4 does, and that's from the live CD. |
| rzs19 | trinity uses just 1/3 from kde4 |
| rzs19 | i love konqueror and kparts, one thing is missing, splitting in konsole like splitting in konqueror. |
| rzs19 | and sorry for my bad english, but i don't talk soo much - normaly. |
| KingSphinx | If people really do start dropping X11 for Wayland, what would happen to Trinity? |
| rzs19 | will trinity be ported completely to qt4, or will there be a qt3 fork? |
| KingSphinx | Trinity is a Qt3 fork |
| rzs19 | i cant life wihtout X11. my desktop environment is running inside an linux container(lxc). i use xdmcp to connect, so i need xdmcp, indirect rendering and xdm chooser. |
| rzs19 | pulseadui streams the sound out of it :) |
| rzs19 | so i can clone the container and simulate upgrades, or use different distributions, without overhead - funky cool :D |
| *** MutantTurkey has quit IRC |
| rzs19 | is there not tqt(or how its called) between, so it would compile with qt3, or qt4? i think it was "just" a kde 3.5 fork? it also forked qt3? |
| KingSphinx | Mhm, TQt is a fork of Qt3, with plans to integrate Qt4 support once development stops on Qt4 |
| rzs19 | okay :) |
| *** jmma has quit IRC |
| Z_God | it's not fully accurate |
| Z_God | there is no Qt3 fork |
| Z_God | Trinity incorporates Qt3 and is the only path for Qt3 updates |
| Z_God | TQt is a layer between software and Qt to allow compilation and linking against different Qt versions |
| Z_God | it was originally meant to support porting Trinity to Qt4, but likely it will shift towards Qt4 integration instead (with the core still using Qt3) |
| rzs19 | well, it seem that qt4 is not realy ready to use... |
| Z_God | yes, there are performance issues |
| Z_God | btw. there is no sense in supporting Qt4 when its development stops |
| Z_God | it would be more useful to consider Qt5 support if it fixes the performance problems |
| rzs19 | or maybe i need a octocore cpu? |
| rzs19 | maybe we should buy three computers, install MOSIX and hope it will give enough performance :P |
| Z_God | for smaller software it works ok |
| Z_God | but not for a full DE somehow |
| Z_God | although I understand KDE4 has ok performance now |
| Z_God | on modern hardware |
| rzs19 | what is modern? is my dual core with 4 gb ram not enough? |
| rzs19 | its a damn desktop and not a blown up 3d shooter. |
| rzs19 | 4.6.5 was okay, with 4.7.x i got in trouble... |
| rzs19 | take KDe 4.x scroll in konsole, its slow. |
| rzs19 | kate syntax highlighting is extreme slow. ocular needs damn much ram. |
| rzs19 | write a long sql query into kate from kde 4. |
| rzs19 | there is so much that does not work. |
| rzs19 | well, now i can use tde, there is no reason for me, to switch back to kde4. |
| rzs19 | ähm does somebody know how i can configure konqueror to show always detailed view? |
| Z_God | I would expect the slow display issue to be GPU related |
| Z_God | I barely tested 4.x myself, so I don't really know how it's now to be honest |
| rzs19 | i have tried, nvidia, ati, intel. with intel it worked nice, ati too, but it needs to much ram. |
| Z_God | ok, my experience was limited to intel |
| rzs19 | ad i dont like strigi, nepomuk, you can disable it, but not everything will work. |
| Z_God | and only versions |
| rzs19 | with out it* |
| Z_God | older^ |
| Z_God | ok |
| rzs19 | 4.6.5 was okay, but kate and konsole - this performance issues are not nice. |
| KingSphinx | And that's why Trinity exists. :D |
| rzs19 | and when kde 4 was fast it wouldnt change much... tde != kde4... |
| Space_Man | rzs19: K menu / System settings / Default applications / File associations / Inode / Directory / |
| rzs19 | and i can not understand ppl moving from kde to xfce, i don't the gtk dialogs. |
| Space_Man | and move the detailed list view to the top |
| rzs19 | okay, i have tried it with profiles, but it only works for the current tab. |
| Space_Man | K menu / System settings / Default applications / File associations / Inode / Directory / **Embedding** |
| Z_God | Space_Man: thanks, I needed that as well :) |
| KingSphinx | Well, people are probably ditching KDE for Xfce because they don't know about Trinity... just my guess. |
| Space_Man | :) |
| rzs19 | i was using google chrome and tried to print an image(gtk printing screen), scalled to the whole site, but there was no option. |
| rzs19 | webkit, or gecko would be nice, if i can select it in konqueror. |
| Z_God | rzs19: working on it ;) |
| rzs19 | or konsol as kpart :) |
| rzs19 | great :D |
| Z_God | wish I had more time, but at least it's working what's in svn |
| Z_God | if you have some time to help out, it would be great |
| Aquarius | back here |
| Aquarius | by the way... chromium sucks. |
| KingSphinx | Hey, has there been any progress made on integrating an alternate rendering enging into Konqueror? |
| rzs19 | well, i cannot help with c++ programming, i just can some scripting languages like python, js, php, gambas(long long time ago). but maybe i can make a bank robbery? :D |
| Aquarius | it doesn't work with java scripts well. |
| Aquarius | however, Iceweasel sucks too. It crashes on youtube videos. |
| Z_God | KingSphinx: I managed to get kmozilla running |
| Z_God | but there's still a lot of work left to do |
| Z_God | Aquarius: it shouldn't |
| KingSphinx | :o awesome! Will it be in 3.5.13 or will it have to wait? |
| Aquarius | the most stable browser for Debian is Opera, but it has anti-aliased fonts (i'm using sharpfonts script which didn't affect Opera for some reason) and thus it's its only flaw. |
| Z_God | KingSphinx: won't be |
| Aquarius | Z_God, well, it does by me. |
| rzs19 | maybe the right time to finish learning c++? i have often started, but.. than.. there was allways python, it makes anything too easy... ;) |
| Z_God | Aquarius: check your flash plug-in version |
| Aquarius | Z_God, dunno why, maybe i'm cursed, but i do have some probs with browser too. |
| Aquarius | Z_God, what is to check there? |
| Aquarius | it's icedtea6 or something |
| Z_God | and if you're on a 64-bit bit system, use 64-bit flash |
| Aquarius | so either it works or it doesn;t |
| Aquarius | hm... |
| Aquarius | yes, i am |
| Z_God | that's java |
| Aquarius | you're assuming that i might've been using 32-bit flash? |
| Z_God | nspluginwrapper sucks |
| Aquarius | yeah, and Konqueror crashes on flash video. |
| Z_God | some distros ship it |
| Z_God | with this wrapper |
| Z_God | for 64-bit browsers |
| Z_God | the native 64-bit flash plug-in sucks less |
| Aquarius | i dunno how to check which version i'm using |
| Z_God | search for the plug-in file on your box |
| Z_God | and do a file on it |
| *** michael__ has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Aquarius | how come Opera works perfectly with flash? |
| Aquarius | don't they share the same driver? |
| KingSphinx | Also, did KWin ever do compositing before 3.5.13 or is that new? |
| Z_God | file /usr/lib/flashplugin-installer/libflashplayer.so |
| Z_God | for example |
| Z_God | Aquarius: I guess not |
| Aquarius | so you're saying that Opera has it's own in-built flash thing? |
| Z_God | no, I guess they use the same plug-in |
| Z_God | you can check that |
| Aquarius | ah. |
| Z_God | enter about:plugins |
| Z_God | in both browsers |
| Aquarius | ok |
| Aquarius | copied, where's that pastebox again |
| Z_God | at least to fix most issues, you can go to http://www.youtube.com/html5 |
| Z_God | and turn on the video tag |
| Z_God | it should avoid the flash plug-in when it's not necessary |

| Aquarius | /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/flash-mozilla.so |
| Z_God | check whether that lib is 64-bit |
| Aquarius | ok |
| Aquarius | what do you mean by "do a file on it"? |
| Z_God | like I wrote ;) |
| Z_God | file /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/flash-mozilla.so |
| Aquarius | i found it, but i dunno how to check |
| Z_God | ah sorry |
| Z_God | I mean you have to execute that in a konsole |
| Aquarius | hm. |
| Aquarius | so i have to type "file flash-mozilla.so"? :) |
| Z_God | the file command displays all kinds of useful info about a file |
| Aquarius | ok. |
| Z_God | is that's the path to the file, it should work |
| Z_God | if* |
| Aquarius | root@aquarius:~# file /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/ |
| Aquarius | /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/: directory |
| Aquarius | :) |
| Aquarius | that's what it does basically :) |
| Z_God | yep |
| Z_God | now do it on the lib |
| Aquarius | ah |
| Aquarius | damn |
| Aquarius | yes :) i missed it.. |
| Z_God | it works on all kinds of files |
| Aquarius | thanks for letting know :) |
| Aquarius | root@aquarius:~# file /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/flash-mozilla.so |
| Aquarius | /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/flash-mozilla.so: symbolic link to `/etc/alternatives/flash-mozilla.so' |
| Aquarius | :) |
| Z_God | yeah, just follow the links ;) |
| Aquarius | did it on second one too. Same thing. |
| Aquarius | ah |
| Aquarius | no |
| Aquarius | it changes.. hang on.. |
| Aquarius | found. |
| Aquarius | 64 bit. |
| Z_God | ok |

| Aquarius | /usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree/libflashplayer.so: ELF 64-bit LSB shared object, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, stripped |
| Z_God | that one should be reasonably stable |
| Z_God | does it regularly crash? |
| Aquarius | well, Iceweasel crashes on youtube and displays some scripts incorrectly. Chromium never crashes on it, but displays some scripts incorrectly, like on playforia.com (i play pool there). Opera does all the job perfectly with no flaws at all. |
| Aquarius | Iceweasel just closes, it doesn't bring errors. |
| Z_God | maybe you could start iceweasel from a konsole or later even gdb and reproduce the crash |
| Aquarius | hm... to see what exactly happens? |
| Z_God | that should give more info |
| Z_God | yes |
| Aquarius | ok, let's stry. |
| Aquarius | erm.. how do i do that and what's gdb? :) |
| Z_God | I would try without first |
| Aquarius | well.. how do i run it from terminal? |
| Aquarius | i just entered the name there, but nothing happened. Should i specify the exect location? |
| Aquarius | exact* |
| Z_God | no |
| Z_God | it should work |
| Z_God | if it fails, you get an error |
| Z_God | like command not found |
| Aquarius | hm |
| Aquarius | no protocol specified it says |
| Z_God | you just type iceweasel? |
| Aquarius | it's not Alt+F2 thing. It's terminal. |
| Aquarius | yep. |
| Z_God | and it prints this? |
| Aquarius | exactly. |
| Aquarius | but.. |
| Aquarius | .it's root terminal |
| Z_God | how come? |
| Aquarius | because i use root terminal usually. |
| Aquarius | let me use konsole |
| Z_God | you should never do that... |
| Aquarius | i know, but i'm tired of seeing "are you root?" |
| Z_God | you don't see that with normal applications |
| Z_God | only with system administration |
| Aquarius | i ran iceweasel from Konsole. Worked. |
| Aquarius | now to youtube.. |
| Z_God | make it crash now yep ;) |
| Aquarius | crap..it doesn't crash now.. |
| Aquarius | but i now it will next time when i'm not tracking it. |
| *** michael__ has quit IRC |
| Z_God | hope you can reproduce the crash now |
| Z_God | otherwise, it can also be interesting to look at the file .xsession-errors after a crash |
| Aquarius | maybe it's there still. |
| Aquarius | let me look it up |
| Z_God | I guess it's not so easy to find now |
| Z_God | I have to go to bed here |
| Aquarius | sure, see you later |
| Aquarius | thanks for assistance |
| Z_God | np :) |
| Z_God | I hope you can still look at those kicker options |
| Z_God | I can imagine you need to study that file a bit, but then it should work |
| Z_God | good night all! |
| Aquarius | sure, i'll try it out |

| KingSphinx | Was the "deep buttons" thing a last-minute addition? I have a feeling I know who's responsible for that feature... :P |
| MutantTurkey | no it's been around |
| MutantTurkey | why/ |
| MutantTurkey | ? |
| MutantTurkey | it's been around afaik |
| KingSphinx | Lol, I remember that Aquarius has been wondering how to activate something in Kicker that had been missing for a while; namely, the ability to get the window tabe in Kicker to have that "pressed-in" look instead of just bolding the text of the currently active window. |
| Aquarius | exactly |
| KingSphinx | *tabs |
| MutantTurkey | Aquarius: deep buttons! |
| MutantTurkey | thats it |
| Aquarius | yep :) |
| MutantTurkey | word |
| MutantTurkey | KingSphinx: so tomorrow is the big day? |
| KingSphinx | I guess so |
| MutantTurkey | yeah... |
| Aquarius | so what about buttons, huh? |
| Aquarius | why did you bring it up? |
| *** MutantTurkey has quit IRC |
| KingSphinx | Nah, just thought I'd known who was the inspiration for having it re-implemented. |
| Aquarius | ah |
| Aquarius | yeah, it'd be a good thing. |
| Aquarius | i think even though i was the one who brought it up i'll be nevertheless not the only one who puts thumbs up in the end as it's done |
| Aquarius | that's for sure. |
| KingSphinx | Also, I've noted that it can now "be installed alongside KDE 4.x with few problems" instead of "no problems"... |

| Z_God | I just turned on this feature Aquarius was playing with |
| Z_God | I don't know yet if I like it or not |
| Z_God | http://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-TnLKfc3YvRc/Tq_qh63_bAI/AAAAAAAAAfQ/q2I6E4UHIiQ/s800/drawbuttons.png |
| KingSphinx | Is it enable-able through a regular menu or do you really have to tinker with kicker.kcfg? |
| KingSphinx | er, taskbar.kcfg |
| Z_God | ktaskbarrc yep |
| Z_God | just add two lines |
| Z_God | [Appearance] & below that DrawButtons=true |
| Z_God | it's working on 3.5.11 at least |
| KingSphinx | BTW, are the release repos up yet or are you still on nightlies? |
| Z_God | I'm still on oldstable for lucid right now ;) |
| Z_God | unfortunately, I cannot easily update here, stupid data limits |
| KingSphinx | Really? Well, that would explain the K menu instead of the T menu |
| Z_God | yep |
| Z_God | I'll probably update this weekend if there will be a lucid version |
| Z_God | from 3.5.11 to 3.5.13, it'll be interesting :) |
| KingSphinx | Lucid never did get an update to 3.5.12, did it? |
| Z_God | nope, only nightlies |
| Z_God | which I didn't use |
| Z_God | I was running those only in a VM for testing & development |
| KingSphinx | I'm also sort of surprised to find that there won't be a Live CD of 3.5.13... I was kinda expecting one so I could reinstall Oneiric with Trinity just to be sure that KDE 4 isn't installed on my computer. |
| Z_God | there will be a live cd |
| Z_God | but not on the release day |
| Z_God | there was just not enough time |
| Z_God | at least that's how I understood it |
| Z_God | if you don't want another DE, just do a commandline only install, add the trinity repos and install trinity with the instructions |
| Z_God | that's how I tend to do it, it was even possible to install natty and put trinity 3.5.12 (for maverick) on in that way |
| KingSphinx | Not exactly an easy option for me, my wireless doesn't work OOB with any distribution save for Fedora, for some reason. |
| Z_God | yes, you need to install with a wire basically ... |
| Z_God | what kind of wifi chipset do you have? |
| KingSphinx | I'm also noted how, with 3.5.12, the release notes say it can be installed alongside KDE 4 with no problems. 3.5.13, on the other hand, says "few problems" instead. Hmm.... |
| KingSphinx | Broadcom B4318, I think. |
| Z_God | there were always a few problems ;) |
| Z_God | it seems someone did build a live-cd for fedora |
| Z_God | so you could use that to chroot into a ubuntu commandline system & add trinity to it ;) |
| KingSphinx | Someone made a Fedora build of Trinity? |
| Z_God | http://trinity-devel.pearsoncomputing.net/?0::3267 |
| KingSphinx | And here I thought it would be impossible because RedHat/Fedora don't allow installation in /opt |
| Z_God | I guess that would make it hard to get it included in the official repos |
| Z_God | but it doesn't make a 3rd-party repos impossible ;) |
| KingSphinx | Heck, the /opt issue is half the reason I distro-hopped back to *buntu (I didn't think anyone could get Trinity ported to Fedora... way to be proven wrong...) |
| Z_God | it makes sense imo to avoid putting stuff in /opt for the official repositories |

| MutantTurkey | Z_God: /opt is good for things that are messy |
| MutantTurkey | especially when you have 2 versions of a product like kde3/kde4 |
| Z_God | and you want to avoid messy stuff in your main repository |
| MutantTurkey | I tend to agree though, they're a bit annoying |
| MutantTurkey | righ |
| MutantTurkey | I use the /opt/trinity because it helps keep it self contained as well |
| Z_God | yes, for trinity it is definitely appropriate for now |
| MutantTurkey | rkight |
| Z_God | but I understand why fedora doesn't accept things like that |
| MutantTurkey | holy cow! Francois built a livecd? |
| MutantTurkey | Z_God: I dunno, "policy" |
| MutantTurkey | its probably not a hard rule though |
| Z_God | I think there would be bigger problems getting trinity in right now anyhow |
| MutantTurkey | if you explained it to them, i bet they'ed at least hear you out |
| MutantTurkey | yeah |
| Z_God | 3rd party repos seems the best option for now |
| Z_God | I wonder when the site will be updated |
| MutantTurkey | where it is in the file system is pointless to deal with |
| Z_God | then the news can hit slashdot, etc. :) |

| l0ner | i forgot when i had mine |
| l0ner | but it's +-19:00 where I live |
| l0ner | and I'm beggining to think about dinner |
| l0ner | anyone here using arch?? |
| l0ner | and maybe familiar with arts? |
| MutantTurkey | I love arch |
| MutantTurkey | :) |
| MutantTurkey | arts? as in the sound daemon? |
| l0ner | I moved from gentoo to arch |
| l0ner | yep |
| MutantTurkey | excellent! |
| MutantTurkey | arch is better imho :P |
| l0ner | right now it's true |
| l0ner | gentoo is doing some strange things right now |
| MutantTurkey | Arch is rock solid |
| l0ner | yep |
| l0ner | will there be new trinity packages for arch? |
| l0ner | maybe for kdemultimedia and oher things? |
| l0ner | it's kinda annoying using kdemod3... which don't work as it should |
| MutantTurkey | kdemod3 is terrible i think |
| MutantTurkey | I actually don't have packages made for arch |
| MutantTurkey | I have been quite busy running around fixing bugs and such |
| l0ner | maunal build? or aur? |
| MutantTurkey | I havent made up packages builds |
| MutantTurkey | manual build will work OK |
| l0ner | i'll wait |
| MutantTurkey | AUR isn't made yet |
| l0ner | i'll wait for aur |
| MutantTurkey | its a PITA and I don't have any tarballs to work with yet |
| l0ner | I don't want to mess with autoconf builds |
| MutantTurkey | its cmake now. |
| l0ner | everything? i pulled code from svn today and some components are still handled by automake |
| l0ner | like kdemultimedia which I need |
| MutantTurkey | some yes |
| MutantTurkey | kdemultimedia |
| MutantTurkey | autoconf is pretty simple though |
| MutantTurkey | http://www.trinitydesktop.org/wiki/bin/view/Developers/HowToBuild |
| MutantTurkey | check that |
| l0ner | read it something like 20 times tday |
| MutantTurkey | "make -f admin/Makefile.common " |
| MutantTurkey | okay :p |
| MutantTurkey | that is typicall all you have to do |
| l0ner | and autoconf just don't want to work for me |
| l0ner | i dunno why |
| MutantTurkey | :\ |
| MutantTurkey | well I can start looking into archlinux scripts |
| l0ner | maybe because of multilib, maybe because of existing qt4 installation which i need for some apps |
| MutantTurkey | if you would like me to make them |
| l0ner | that would be nice |
| MutantTurkey | I thought Tim was going to release tarballs for the release |
| MutantTurkey | which i think he is... |
| MutantTurkey | so I need to wait until that time |
| l0ner | I'll wait, I don't need to update right now anyway |
| MutantTurkey | ok |
| l0ner | anyway, about arts |
| l0ner | i see there is arts inside kdemulltimedia |
| l0ner | and there is arts inside dependencise |
| l0ner | *dependencies |
| MutantTurkey | :o |
| l0ner | and I'm kinda confused, what is what |
| MutantTurkey | I am not sure |
| MutantTurkey | the one in dependencies is definitely first |
| MutantTurkey | because you need arts to build kdebase etc |
| l0ner | I know, but if the one in the deps is our soundmixerdaemon, what is the one in kdemultimedia? |
| l0ner | a versality multimedia system the consists of various little building |
| l0ner | 3 blocks that you (or your application) can combine in almost arbitrary |
| l0ner | 4 ways to create sound and video processing pipes. |
| l0ner | says README |
| MutantTurkey | no idea :| |
| l0ner | well, maybe Tim will know |
| l0ner | I'm getting feeling that whole trinity sound system needs a through lookup and update... |
| l0ner | since it's pretty archaic right now... compared to pulseaudio for example |
| MutantTurkey | pulse is terrible to though. |
| MutantTurkey | but we should switch |
| l0ner | well, most of problems with pulse comes form misunderstanding what it is |
| l0ner | and how it should be used |
| l0ner | the distro maintainers tend to put it above alsamixer which is a sound mixer by itseld |
| l0ner | and you end up having two mixers in your system, fighting each other for alsa and applications |
| l0ner | in realty it should be alsamixer OR pulse OR arts OR whatever sound mixer you want to use |

| MutantTurkey | hopefully we get webkit in the next release |
| l0ner | would be really nice. I'd like to use konqueror as my main web browser |
| l0ner | I configured my desktop to be kinda like macosx, with the main toolbar integrated into top panel |
| KingSphinx | Funny how Trinity Konqueror makes a great file browser, but is almost IE6-level terrible at web browsing; while the current Konqueror makes a great web browser, but a terrible file manager. What happened? |
| l0ner | and I'm tired of applications which don't use that space for their main toolbar (ie all gtk+ apps) |
| l0ner | dunno... time paradox? |
| MutantTurkey | how do you do that? |
| l0ner | I think the best option for trinity would be drop knoqueror ability to be web browser and develop dedicated browser |
| MutantTurkey | integrated toolbar |
| MutantTurkey | l0ner: no with webkit all that will be done |
| l0ner | let's hope so |
| MutantTurkey | KingSphinx: actually Konqueror still works great on websites that actually follow standards. |

| l0ner | ok |
| l0ner | in the meantime i'll download trinity live cd and see if it works there |
| MutantTurkey | where is it |
| l0ner | anyway it should look similiar to this: http://inquistor.info/img/panehje1320174585c.png I added the kmenu, desktop switcher, notifications and clock |
| l0ner | right now I miss only a macos-like dock at the bottom of my screen to complete my osx-like desktop :D |
| MutantTurkey | there are linux docks |

| Z_God | cześć ;) |
| l0ner | Z_God: a witam ;) |
| Z_God | dziękuję! |
| MutantTurkey | nice |
| MutantTurkey | except it needs a gtk wrapper |
| l0ner | MutantTurkey: i know that there are linux docs, but from what I remember they are python based, I don't like apps written in python |
| l0ner | yep |
| l0ner | it needs, but creating one exceeds my programming skills (which are pretty non-existent anyway :P) |
| MutantTurkey | yeah |
| MutantTurkey | does it need one? |
| MutantTurkey | or does our wrapper just need some work |
| MutantTurkey | our gtkwrapper probably could do it |
| l0ner | i think some work on the existing wrapper whould be fine |
| l0ner | I think so |
| MutantTurkey | yes\ |
| l0ner | aaaargh!! Kview is refusing to zoom in/out |
| l0ner | I'm beggining to seriously consider manual build of newest trinity |
| MutantTurkey | do it |
| MutantTurkey | not difficult |
| MutantTurkey | especially with a newer processer :P |
| l0ner | i have an i3 |
| l0ner | it shouldn't be a problem |
| l0ner | but first I'll try it on vbox, I don't want to mess with my system too much |
| l0ner | oh, another thing that trinity needs: qt4 wrapper. It's annoying to have qt4 apps in totally different style... |
| MutantTurkey | i3 isnt to bad |
| MutantTurkey | I have i5 and its pretty good |
| l0ner | i bought laptop with i3 because it had lower price :P |
| l0ner | and right now I hate it... why, oh why i had chosen a samsung laptop?? |
| l0ner | specs itself aren't bad, but it's samsung |
| l0ner | and it's not really working well with linux |
| MutantTurkey | Lenovo Thinkpad here |
| MutantTurkey | all laptops are similar internal spec wise. all lots of processing power and ram |
| MutantTurkey | its about the build quality i care for |
| l0ner | that's true |
| l0ner | but samsung laptops handle acpi in some obscure way, i had problems with overheating because kernel couldn't comunicate with fan and speed it up -_- |
| l0ner | the situation sholud become better right now, since there is samsung-laptop module in kernel |
| l0ner | too bad it's hard-coded to work only with some models... at least it was when i looked at it |
| MutantTurkey | weird |
| MutantTurkey | I love my lappy :) |
| l0ner | i'd like some older laptop, or maybe something from the business-class... they are usually build better than the customer-class ones |
| l0ner | the best would be dell xt2... but the cost too much |
| MutantTurkey | lenovo |
| MutantTurkey | they are built awesome |
| MutantTurkey | and Lenovo sells refurb laptopts |
| l0ner | oh... I didn't know |
| l0ner | i'll look at them :) |
| MutantTurkey | http://outlet.lenovo.com/ |
| MutantTurkey | they are usually quite a bit cheaper |
| l0ner | some time ago I had possibility to work on some older enterprise-class acers... despite being older they were awesome |
| l0ner | thx ;) |

| l0ner | MutantTurkey: about dock, http://kooldock.sourceforge.net written for kde3.x |
| l0ner | present in aur |
| l0ner | does not compile tho... |
| MutantTurkey | let me see if i can compile it on ubuntu |
| MutantTurkey | thats what I am on right now |
| l0ner | ok |
| MutantTurkey | we could even include it for trinity 3.5.14 if many people like it |
| l0ner | would be nice :D |
| MutantTurkey | that would be cool |
| l0ner | I'm suprised on how easy is to transform trinity into macosx |
| l0ner | dock + icons and you have nearly-complete osx look and feel :D |
| MutantTurkey | yes |
| MutantTurkey | if we have this doc well |
| MutantTurkey | dock' |
| l0ner | yes ;) |
| l0ner | and we could advertise as osx desktop for linux xD |
| l0ner | compete solution |
| l0ner | I found another dock for kde3.2.x http://kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=6585 |
| MutantTurkey | good work |
| l0ner | txh ;) |
| l0ner | anyway I downloaded latest source for both, and they configure, but do not compile |
| MutantTurkey | my first one wont even configure |
| MutantTurkey | ... |
| MutantTurkey | cant find trinity |
| l0ner | argh |
| MutantTurkey | are you doing just ./configure? |
| l0ner | yes |
| l0ner | well, they are dead projects, so they will need some work |
| l0ner | before they can be compiled without problems on trinity |

| KingSphinx | So I just gotta wait a bit longer? |
| MutantTurkey | not sure |
| MutantTurkey | I am actually running the SVN release (which is right now exactly the same as 3.5.13) so I am not sure |

| MutantTurkey | doesnt alway seem to be enough :[ |

| *** edogaa has joined #trinity-desktop |
| edogaa | Hey, so I tried getting trinity through a 3rd party repos on arch, I notice you guys have HAL as a dependency, is that going to be fixed at some point (a move to udev?)? Or did I ask that already, can't recall I just recall wanting to switch to it and asking stuff here. |
| MutantTurkey | hey |
| MutantTurkey | edogaa: yes |
| MutantTurkey | in the next release we will have eliminated HAL |
| edogaa | *nods* |
| edogaa | Hurrah D: |
| MutantTurkey | basically we wanted to wait because for a while things were quite uncertain |
| MutantTurkey | we didn't want to port and then have to port again. now that things have settled on upower, udisks, udev, we are going to have it. |
| MutantTurkey | edogaa: also, what repository is that? kdemod3? |
| rzs19 | devfs, hal, udev... freebsd just has devd.. |
| edogaa | Well, actually I believe so yes? |
| rzs19 | and when udev works, than we got something new! |
| MutantTurkey | thats the problem |
| MutantTurkey | and frankly, hald is still working for me... |
| MutantTurkey | "unmaintainable pile of crap" that works is better than no clear solution |
| MutantTurkey | IMHO they should have just improved Hal and not scrapped it. |
| MutantTurkey | ah well |
| edogaa | Hmmm, from what I read or heard about HALD I Don't think scrapping it was as bad as scrapping an entire DE o.O |
| MutantTurkey | :P |
| MutantTurkey | edogaa: I'm an arch fan, do you have a link to that repo? |
| MutantTurkey | quite interested :P |
| MutantTurkey | I know there was some work going on with it, and I myself have been working on PKGBUILDS, but nothing difinitive |

| MutantTurkey | well as far as I know |
| MutantTurkey | David Rankin was doing a lot of development on it but got hung up with work |
| MutantTurkey | havent seen him for months |
| edogaa | Ah. |
| MutantTurkey | well now i'm not sure :p |
| MutantTurkey | let me look |
| edogaa | So any issues with 3.5.13 on fedora? :O |
| MutantTurkey | we actually have Francois Andriot working on it |
| MutantTurkey | he has up to date packages as far as I know |
| *** MutantTurkey is now known as MobileTurkey |
| edogaa | So, how do you guys get around the whole hal thing? o.o I always thought fedora and ubuntu oneirc dropped it |
| MobileTurkey | we juts host it. |
| MobileTurkey | just host it' |
| edogaa | ah |
| MobileTurkey | we have a hal-trinity package. |
| MobileTurkey | drop in replacement |

| *** Harmonium has quit IRC |

| kb9vqf | Hi guys |
| kb9vqf | MobileTurkey: Regarding your media comment (yes I do read the logs! ;-)) feel free to take over there |
| kb9vqf | Every minute I spend dealing with media (social or otherwise) is a minute that I cannot work on improving the Trinity codebase |
| kb9vqf | this is why we have development teams :) |
| MobileTurkey | hey! |
| MobileTurkey | I am |
| MobileTurkey | i've been doing what I can |
| MobileTurkey | i let you do what you do best |
| kb9vqf | sounds good :) |
| MobileTurkey | i have a few Q's |
| kb9vqf | sure |
| MobileTurkey | 1) can I be a mirror from my VPS? i have 300gb of unused bandwidth. |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| MobileTurkey | 2) the releases page on the website doesnt have 3.5.13 |
| kb9vqf | hang on |
| *** Harmonium has joined #trinity-desktop |
| kb9vqf | link please? |
| MobileTurkey | 3) mirrors currently are whacked out, so i've been telling people to give it 24 hours |
| kb9vqf | yep, that's right |
| MobileTurkey | http://trinitydesktop.org/releases.php |
| MobileTurkey | also, are there tarballs for the release? |
| kb9vqf | I didn't want to delay the release any further as the tarballs are available today |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | hang on |
| kb9vqf | http://trinitydesktop.org/releases/3.5.13 |
| kb9vqf | forgot to activate the link I guess :-/ |
| MobileTurkey | yes it's not there |
| MobileTurkey | 4) are we getting back on the 6 month cycle? (thats a big question :p |
| MobileTurkey | 5) WOOHOOO! SUCESSFUL RELEASE! you're awesome |
| * MobileTurkey gives kb9vqf round of applause |
| *** joeytwiddle_ has quit IRC |
| kb9vqf | MobileTurkey: Releases page is up |
| * kb9vqf thanks MobileTurkey, samelian, Francois Androit, and others for handling some things he didn't have time to do |
| kb9vqf | Regarding the 6 month cycle: Do you think a HAL replacement can be written in 6 months without my direct involvement? |
| kb9vqf | If so then yes, that is a distinct possibilit |
| kb9vqf | *possibility |
| kb9vqf | also we will need some new artwork for the next release |
| kb9vqf | time to get 3.5.14 Etherpad together I think... :) |
| kb9vqf | BTW the codebase is still frozen until I say otherwise |
| kb9vqf | I'm working on this whole GIT mess at the moment |
| MobileTurkey | kb9vqf: got a post about ARM already |
| kb9vqf | good? bad? indifferent? |

| *** izaki has joined #trinity-desktop |
| MobileTurkey | he is exactly the market you are trying to hitr |
| MobileTurkey | "I have a small ARM powered device...." |
| kb9vqf | ah, cool :) |
| kb9vqf | on the ML? |
| MobileTurkey | I said we'll have squeeze for the moment, and it's in the APT repository |
| MobileTurkey | www.osnews.com/comments/25283 |
| MobileTurkey | i've been sort of fielding questions from here. |
| izaki | Hi! Is it possible to make Trinity coexist with KDE5 on a kubuntu installation? I am willing to take a leap of faith but this is also the machine I use to work.... |
| kb9vqf | KDE5? |
| edogaa | KDE5 o.O |
| MobileTurkey | KDE5? |
| edogaa | XD omg, everyone here had the same reaction |
| MobileTurkey | surely you jest. |
| izaki | Bleh, sorry... KDE4... |
| MobileTurkey | izaki: it should be fine to install KDE4 alongside trinity with no problems |
| kb9vqf | it will coexist with KDE4 as long as you don't try to mix applications, such as running TDE apps in a KDE4 session |
| izaki | :D |
| edogaa | Ah yes, how annoying is it to run nautilus by mistake and have the GNOME Desktop overlap your current desktop |
| kb9vqf | (technically the apps will still run but you might get weird behaviour due to the default settings clash) |
| edogaa | in some kind of hideous, bloated slow fashion |
| MobileTurkey | kb9vqf: i've been working on kgtk some more, it's also a total mess. |
| kb9vqf | GTK3? |
| * kb9vqf took one look at Cairo and ran |
| MobileTurkey | imagine knowing how to use QWERTY keyboards, then learning DVORAK |
| MobileTurkey | its just a totally different approach |
| MobileTurkey | there is not "just replace X with Y" |
| MobileTurkey | it is possible that I could make it use regular old X11 calls though. |
| MobileTurkey | since the GTK drawing scheme is nearly identical to X11's |
| MobileTurkey | any thoughts on that? |
| edogaa | >_> Hmm? WHat. |
| MobileTurkey | edogaa: rewriting our GTK wrapper for GTK3. |
| edogaa | Actually, this looks like one of thosse topics i won't get so I'll just continue string at my download manager to see how far fedora has downloaded lol |
| edogaa | oh |
| MobileTurkey | lol |
| MobileTurkey | kb9vqf: also gtk3 apps all crash now. somewhere we are setting the LD PRELOAD to libkgtk2 and that forces any gtk3 app to crash |
| MobileTurkey | no matter what |
| edogaa | You know, I Wonder if gtk apps will look less 'hideous' on trinity than in 4... lol |
| kb9vqf | hehe |
| kb9vqf | MobileTurkey: So GTK3 went off the deep end |
| kb9vqf | great :-P |
| MobileTurkey | yeah\ |
| kb9vqf | looks like I might work on the Qt4 integration and start recommending that :-/ |
| kb9vqf | GTK is a bit of a useless pain lately |
| kb9vqf | slow |
| kb9vqf | ugly |
| kb9vqf | clunky |
| kb9vqf | GTK2 looked tons better |
| MobileTurkey | yeah. I liked gtk 1.x |

| kb9vqf | I did put that info in the annoucement :-P |
| kb9vqf | MobileTurkey rather |
| edogaa | i wonder if kbfx will still work with it :O |
| edogaa | i never used it, but it looked pretty nifty |
| kb9vqf | kbfx is available and functional AFAIK |
| edogaa | Awesome ;D |
| MobileTurkey | ok |
| MobileTurkey | edogaa: kbfx works i was using it a bi ago |
| MobileTurkey | kb9vqf: hows the bandwidth holding up? |
| MobileTurkey | lots of load? |
| kb9vqf | so far so good |
| kb9vqf | lots of load from the mirror sync still |
| kb9vqf | unfortunately this time around it has to upload something close to 40GB |
| kb9vqf | because of the Fedora/RHEL packages |
| kb9vqf | that's why it's taking so long |
| MobileTurkey | right |
| kb9vqf | for 3.5.14 we should put together a tentative schedule |
| MobileTurkey | next time it would be good to have the mirrors ready first |
| kb9vqf | we need to allow 2 weeks for QA |
| MobileTurkey | yes |
| kb9vqf | and another week for mirror sync |
| MobileTurkey | right |
| kb9vqf | and a week for binary builds before that |
| MobileTurkey | or a few days |
| kb9vqf | so we could easily have 1 1/2 months tied up in release duties |
| kb9vqf | leacing 4 1/2 months to hack on Trinity |
| kb9vqf | *leaving |
| kb9vqf | then add the month or so it could take to get GIT all up and running... |
| MobileTurkey | we need to set up some roadmap for the release |
| MobileTurkey | right. |
| kb9vqf | this development window may be rather short :-P |
| MobileTurkey | :x |
| kb9vqf | I'm expecting only 3 months to hack on TDE |
| kb9vqf | so set the goals accordingly |
| kb9vqf | I'm not convinced a 6 month cycle is such a good thing really |
| kb9vqf | we lose 1/5 of the cycle time just in getting ready for release |
| MobileTurkey | with large projects I am |
| MobileTurkey | like LibreOffice or Firefox |
| MobileTurkey | with a small team, without a release team. |
| kb9vqf | Firefox has been...buggy ever since they switched |
| * kb9vqf is undecided |
| MobileTurkey | read this |
| MobileTurkey | http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleasePlan#Summary |
| MobileTurkey | that might steer you one way or another |
| *** exc_ has joined #trinity-desktop |
| kb9vqf | OK, let's see what we can get done in the 3 month window |
| MobileTurkey | lets see how long git takes :p |
| kb9vqf | I suggest contining to hack on TED while the GIT move is being done |
| kb9vqf | *TDE |
| kb9vqf | e.g. fix bugs |
| kb9vqf | upload the patches to the bugtracker |
| kb9vqf | then we'll have a large import when GIT is running |
| MobileTurkey | that is a good idea |
| kb9vqf | so first step in our roadmap is: I'll get GIT running while everyone else fixes bugs :)) |
| exc_ | hi |
| exc_ | i cannot do apt-get update |
| kb9vqf | mirrors are syncing |
| kb9vqf | could take 24 hours or so |
| exc_ | http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity-v3.5.13/debian/dists/squeeze/main/binary-i386/Packages.bz2 cannot be downloaded without referer |
| kb9vqf | sources are available but the binaries are not yet uploaded |
| kb9vqf | *fully uploaded |
| exc_ | thx |
| kb9vqf | np |
| kb9vqf | we have many tens of GB of binary data; that is why the initial upload is taking so long |
| * kb9vqf needs to run |
| kb9vqf | I will be back later |
| kb9vqf | MobileTurkey: Can you get a timeline template started on the Wiki in the Developer's web? |
| kb9vqf | while I'm gone? |
| MobileTurkey | yes |
| kb9vqf | then I can flesh it out a bit when I get back |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | thanks |
| *** kb9vqf has quit IRC |
| *** kb9vqf has joined #trinity-desktop |
| *** izaki has quit IRC |
| KingSphinx | I leave to eat dinner, and the main man himself pops in. :P |
| MobileTurkey | yeah |
| MobileTurkey | lol:p |
| * MobileTurkey has to let my moms friend barrow my laptop :XXXX |
| KingSphinx | So 3.5.14 will ditch HAL? |
| MobileTurkey | yes. |
| MobileTurkey | hopefully |
| KingSphinx | To be honest, I never really noticed a difference between HAL and udisks/uwhatever... |
| KingSphinx | I'm sure it's a lot different developer-wise, but user-end experience is about the same for me. |
| exc_ | hal starts longer |
| exc_ | also with hal i was able to configure xorg settings for hotpluggable devices like mouse |
| kb9vqf | 3 months is a bit of a short dev cycle to rip out HAL, but we'll try our hardest |
| exc_ | now i must run script after plugging |
| kb9vqf | HAL is still a nice piece of software |
| exc_ | btw there is no udev on freebsd and other os |
| exc_ | i believe you don't remove hal support completly? |
| kb9vqf | probably not |
| kb9vqf | actually we need to create an interface library |
| kb9vqf | that would allow different backend (HAL, udev, foobar from the future) to be used |
| kb9vqf | *backends |
| kb9vqf | that's why I am concerned about the 3 month development time |
| exc_ | like solid in kde4? |
| kb9vqf | probably, but at a much lower level |
| kb9vqf | solid is anything but solid AFAIK :) |
| kb9vqf | bloaty |
| exc_ | ) |
| kb9vqf | MobileTurkey: I'm back |
| kb9vqf | Wiki link please? |
| MobileTurkey | back too |
| MobileTurkey | sorry an german exchange teacher needed it |
| MobileTurkey | to check her email |
| MobileTurkey | for some reaosn microsoft live kept crashing on linux... |
| MobileTurkey | :) |
| MobileTurkey | http://www.trinitydesktop.org/wiki/bin/view/Developers/3_5_14_Roadmap |
| rzs19 | http://blog.martin-graesslin.com/blog/2011/08/thoughts-about-kde-plasma-on-non-linux-systems/ *urghs* |
| MobileTurkey | kb9vqf: this is where the wiki fails, multi person editing :p |
| kb9vqf | whoa |
| kb9vqf | oops |
| kb9vqf | let me get a couple thoughts down please :) |
| MobileTurkey | okay:D |
| MobileTurkey | release date for 3.5.14 is May 1st 2012? |
| kb9vqf | Yes, ***tentatively*** |
| MobileTurkey | well of course. |
| kb9vqf | it's not just us devs on this channel :) |
| kb9vqf | don't want to give a wrong impression |
| MobileTurkey | maybe we need #trinity-dev? :p |
| kb9vqf | hehe |
| kb9vqf | no, I'm just being a bt nitpicky ATM |
| kb9vqf | normally this channel alone is perfectly fine |
| kb9vqf | some users are very interested in release dates, and having one floating around without qualifiers could come back and haunt us, regardless of the channel it was logged in |
| MobileTurkey | understood |
| kb9vqf | let me know when you are done editing the Wiki |
| kb9vqf | so I can take a look at it |
| kb9vqf | grrr...the Fedora/RHEL rsync job messed up and duplicated all the RPM data |
| kb9vqf | that explains why things are taking soooo long to sync :-P |
| kb9vqf | fixed now, but I think the damage is done so to speak |
| MobileTurkey | yeah |
| MobileTurkey | a few users will just give up after it doesnt initially work |
| MobileTurkey | especially new users |
| kb9vqf | well, we will need to send out another announcement stating that binary packages are now available |
| kb9vqf | hopefully that will limit any damage done in that regard |
| kb9vqf | rzs19: urgh is right |
| MobileTurkey | okay good |
| kb9vqf | KDE4 just keeps getting worse :-/ |
| kb9vqf | and Wayland is just scary |
| rzs19 | well, linux has its ipv6 stack from freebsd, if i remembe right. |
| kb9vqf | Linux could theoretically fragment itself right out of existence on the desktop |
| MobileTurkey | rzs19: I don't think so... it wouldnt make it into the kernel with bsd licensing |
| MobileTurkey | kb9vqf: also, it's already doing that |
| MobileTurkey | Unity is destroying linux |
| kb9vqf | I know |
| kb9vqf | I'm sad |
| MobileTurkey | it doesn't pass the "mom" test. If your mom cant use it, then it's no good. |
| kb9vqf | there aren't any real options out there outside of Linux |
| kb9vqf | hehe |
| MobileTurkey | seriously. |
| MobileTurkey | do you think your mom can use Unity or Gnome3? no. KDE4? probably but not well |
| kb9vqf | that's the exact thinking that brought Windows 8 into existence though |
| kb9vqf | and Mac OS |
| rzs19 | hmm, ur right.. license does not match... |
| MobileTurkey | "Shuttleworth is as flexible as a brick wall. He is going to do it his way, even if he crashes and burns his own distro." |
| kb9vqf | both of which are TERRIBLE for developers |
| rzs19 | as i said, last day, wayland is useless for me, i need xdmcp, indirect rendering... |
| kb9vqf | yes, I'm starting to get real ticked at Ubuntu personally |
| kb9vqf | The X server, for all of its faults, is one of Linux's strengths |
| KingSphinx | It's practically bulletproof? |
| MobileTurkey | finally catching arch fever? |
| kb9vqf | Where else can you have transparent networked displays? |
| MobileTurkey | kb9vqf: I agree, except that I think that the network model is outdated |
| exc_ | there is a mess with http headers when downloading debian package: after 3 redirects it got error page with "200 ok" header |
| exc_ | http://dpaste.com/645814/ |
| MobileTurkey | that should be done in module instead of at the core |
| rzs19 | okay is twas based on the bsd api |
| kb9vqf | oh no, Inga reactivated the 404 pages |
| kb9vqf | that's BAD |
| kb9vqf | BAD BAD BAD |
| * kb9vqf goes to deactivate his mirror immediately |
| MobileTurkey | kb9vqf: what mirrors do we have? |
| KingSphinx | And right as I was about to check to see if the mirrors were up... |
| kb9vqf | ok, his is no longer being cycled in |
| MobileTurkey | I thought inga was our main mirror? |
| kb9vqf | no |
| kb9vqf | he has a lot of bandwidth but he is somewhat unstable |
| kb9vqf | things happen randonly with his mirror |
| MobileTurkey | somehow I always hit ingas whenever I connect to it. |
| kb9vqf | *randomly |
| MobileTurkey | must be |
| kb9vqf | yes, it has high priority due to the badwidth available |
| MobileTurkey | right |
| MobileTurkey | but the stability is an issue |
| kb9vqf | a serious one |
| KingSphinx | :o none of the mirrors crashed! |
| kb9vqf | I thought he had it fixed |
| rzs19 | ppl often thing, vnc, rdp and x11 is the same, or do the same things... |
| kb9vqf | by no means! |
| kb9vqf | x11 really is the best, but it is the least portable |
| rzs19 | x11 needs some updates, i think... |
| kb9vqf | vnc is slow and does not support certain things, and rdp...well.... |
| * Z_God loves remote X11 |
| MobileTurkey | remote X11 sucks for me |
| MobileTurkey | it never works well with GTK or QT |
| Z_God | it works great with Qt3 |
| MobileTurkey | especiall when there is any sort of lag |
| rzs19 | x11, you can use xinerama, with vnc not, rdp has multihead, in newer specs, so i think? |
| MobileTurkey | locally it's awesome though |
| rzs19 | i can use opengl with indirect rendering :) |
| rzs19 | i can display seperate application and not only the whole desktop... |
| Z_God | it's great to be able to ssh into a box & just have all X11 apps working |
| KingSphinx | Since I was actually able to make contact with all my repos, do you think I should try installing 3.5.13 or should I wait a bit to see if everything's okay connection-wise? |
| MobileTurkey | rdp works better for me :x |
| MobileTurkey | especially so I can login to linux from a windows box |
| rzs19 | but supports rdp something like xinerama, ord dualhead? |
| MobileTurkey | afaik NO. but i don't need dual heads if I cant even log in |
| kb9vqf | KingSphinx: Give it a shot |
| rzs19 | and whats about opengl? i fear wayland... |
| kb9vqf | you might end up with 404s, if so jsut wait |
| kb9vqf | *just |
| rzs19 | if i have more time, i will write a nice howto, to use lxc with some desktop an X.org, soshow the power of this technolgies :) |
| rzs19 | to show* |
| rzs19 | damn i'am too stupid to use a keyboard correctly... |
| kb9vqf | hehe |
| kb9vqf | sounds good though |
| rzs19 | there was antoher post, why we have different distributions and why they don't have same release circleswith same kernel, usw... and i just thinked "someone misunderstands linux dsitributions"... thats frustrating... its like "we must be like windows" |
| Z_God | btw, you all should check out NoMachine's X11 proxy in case you never heard of it |
| rzs19 | NX is cool |
| MobileTurkey | FreeNX? |
| Z_God | yep |
| Z_God | not perfect, but it solves many issues that other options have |
| MobileTurkey | right |
| MobileTurkey | every option has its pros and cons |
| rzs19 | yep :) |
| * kb9vqf remembers an old image that used to exist on the Internet years ago...Tux with the words "Don't be Windows" |
| Z_God | maybe we could integrate freenx into trinity some time |
| MobileTurkey | a freenx app would be cool |
| rzs19 | i wish the old days back... |
| rzs19 | somone knows fox desktop? |
| rzs19 | with kxdocker and kde 3.5.x ? |
| rzs19 | fast and relly nice artwork, but death... |
| rzs19 | +a |
| Z_God | can't you use kxdocker anymore? |
| rzs19 | i don't have tried it... |
| rzs19 | working on a new one for superkramba, in the hope it will be good :P |
| rzs19 | http://stuff.capnkirby.com/Foxdesktop.gif <3 ^^ |
| Z_God | ah ok :) |
| Z_God | looks good :) |
| rzs19 | that was kxdocker |
| KingSphinx | I still feel that SuperKaramba was thrown into KDE 4 as an afterthought, hardly anyone uses it anymore to my knowledge. Bit of a shame, really. |
| Z_God | I guess it could be compiled against trinity |
| Z_God | I never had problems with kde3 apps in trinity |
| rzs19 | i think :) |
| rzs19 | but if i try, i have none sense to play with superkaramba :P |
| Z_God | hehe |
| MobileTurkey | SuperKaramba is what? |
| MobileTurkey | i read about it earlier |
| MobileTurkey | also kxdocker is cool! |
| rzs19 | hmm, dies superkaramba support xinerama, or other dualhead/trippel head whateverhead? |
| rzs19 | damn 3 o clock in the morning, tommorrow i ned to go to work and i want to programm... hmm maybe i should go to bed an programm tomorrow |
| rzs19 | ell, i wish everyone a nice night :) |
| rzs19 | well* |
| kb9vqf | superkaramba is in Trinity |
| rzs19 | i know :) |
| rzs19 | *playing arround with it* |
| Z_God | I'm off to bed here |
| rzs19 | and now good night! :) |
| Z_God | it's also the 2nd of november here already |
| Z_God | ;) |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| Z_God | kb9vqf: thanks for the great release, I'll be looking forward to upgrade this weekend! |
| kb9vqf | you are more than welcome |
| kb9vqf | spead the word :) |
| Z_God | hope you'll be slashdotted :P |
| kb9vqf | The more users on TDE the more devs we can attract |
| *** rzs19 has quit IRC |
| kb9vqf | me too, though that's never happened before... |
| Z_God | I didn't find an article about trinity before on slashdot either |
| * kb9vqf notes that with his luck he'll get too much traffic and the site will go down :-P |
| Z_God | I hope it will make it now |
| kb9vqf | not sure how things even end up there... |
| KingSphinx | Aw, apt-get is telling me it can't find kubuntu-default-settings-trinity or kubuntu-desktop-trinity... |
| Z_God | I submitted it |
| Z_God | it put it on osnews as well, and it was posted quite quickly there together with a KDE4 rant |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | thanks :) |
| Z_God | osnews is quite nerdy, but one dutch guy there is really into ranting ;) |
| kb9vqf | KingSphinx: Yep, the mirrors are syncing still |
| kb9vqf | it's a lot of data |
| Z_God | np of course! |
| * Z_God is off to bed |
| kb9vqf | hey, I think this is the busiest this channel has been in months! |
| Z_God | good luck with everything else |
| kb9vqf | Ww should release more often! :-)) |
| kb9vqf | thanks |
| Z_God | a small note is that the current pages offering ISOs still mention them as current |
| kb9vqf | ah, darn |
| * kb9vqf will probably forget to fix them |
| Z_God | they wouldn't give a bad first impression I think though :) |
| Z_God | good night/day!! |

| Xu_R|Web | kb9vqf: congrats on the release! sorry I haven't been very active at all. |
| Xu_R|Web | kb9vqf: the quarter for school just ended... I don't understand why teachers think it's a good idea to assign *x* amount of essays on the last week of school... |
| kb9vqf | no problem |
| kb9vqf | we should start using the Etherpad more often BTW :) |
| Xu_R|Web | *last week of the quarter... |
| Xu_R|Web | yes, we should :) |
| kb9vqf | it was a nice tool |
| kb9vqf | BTW planning meeting will happen 11/15/2011 or so |
| Xu_R|Web | it needs some love :D |
| Xu_R|Web | kk |
| kb9vqf | 3.5.14 will be somewhat compressed |
| kb9vqf | dev cycle wise |
| Xu_R|Web | ima get back into and hopefully finish packaging. it's been kinda hectic. |
| Xu_R|Web | oic. |
| kb9vqf | Calvin and I are working on a release roadmap |
| kb9vqf | timing and all |
| kb9vqf | taking into account some of our recent Q/A lessons |
| Xu_R|Web | and the structuring begins ;P |
| kb9vqf | input is welcome on this discussion |
| kb9vqf | jeje |
| kb9vqf | hehe |
| * kb9vqf hates this keyboard |
| KingSphinx | Whoo, update-related restarts... |
| *** KingSphinx has quit IRC |
| Xu_R|Web | XD |
| Xu_R|Web | kb9vqf: I managed to recover my dev machine :D which means I have at least half of the core modules done again |
| kb9vqf | cool |
| Xu_R|Web | (no guarantee on working, but at least they're done packaging wise. now just to test ;P) |
| kb9vqf | which distro? |
| Xu_R|Web | suse |
| kb9vqf | ok, good |
| kb9vqf | we have RHEL and Fedora now |
| kb9vqf | so OpenSUSE would round things out |
| kb9vqf | I also think Gentoo works, albiet with a manual compilation |
| Xu_R|Web | yea. samelian is busy tho :| |
| kb9vqf | we're slowly building back up to where KDE3 was :) |
| Xu_R|Web | :D |
| Xu_R|Web | othankgod, my server is back up. this damn router. |
| Xu_R|Web | switching to xchat. |
| MobileTurkey | Xu_R|Web: hey :) |
| Xu_R|Web | yo, calvin :D |
| Xu_R|Web | ...as soon as I find the new Ip for my ircclient >_> |
| * Xu_R|Web hates d-link |
| *** KingSphinx has joined #trinity-desktop |
| MobileTurkey | whats up dude |
| MobileTurkey | havent seen you at all |
| MobileTurkey | also we should try and video chat because I am hankering to see if gmail video chat works :p |
| MobileTurkey | http://www.trinitydesktop.org/wiki/bin/view/Developers/3_5_14_Roadmap |
| MobileTurkey | updated it with pre release planning |
| MobileTurkey | using "x weeks to release" |
| Xu_R|Web | MobileTurkey: sure, if my webcam starts working. does occasionally. :) |
| kb9vqf | ok, but feature freeze will be 6 weeks |
| kb9vqf | also add 1 week to build packages |
| kb9vqf | not everyone has something as powerful as the QuickBuild supercomputer ;-) |
| MobileTurkey | 6 weeks? |
| MobileTurkey | kb9vqf: how big is that cluster/ |
| MobileTurkey | ? |
| kb9vqf | 80 cores |
| Xu_R|Web | and quickbuild probably takes a while anyway ;) |
| Xu_R|Web | oh damn. |
| kb9vqf | on the build farm alone |
| kb9vqf | control servers add more |
| Xu_R|Web | i'll... stick to using build.o.o lolol |
| kb9vqf | hehe |
| MobileTurkey | jeez |
| MobileTurkey | 80 cores.... |
| MobileTurkey | so that's takes up entire rooms? |
| kb9vqf | remember I've got four distros on three architectures |
| kb9vqf | actually 5 distros |
| MobileTurkey | 5? |
| kb9vqf | Lucid, Maverick, Natty, Oneiric, Squeeze |
| MobileTurkey | right |
| kb9vqf | technically Squeeze builds on armel and the others don't |
| kb9vqf | but that will change |
| Xu_R | test |
| MobileTurkey | most of the work was probably already done |
| Xu_R | awesome |
| Xu_R | it works agian |
| *** Xu_R|Web has left #trinity-desktop |
| MobileTurkey | the compilation fixes |
| MobileTurkey | Xu_R: :) |
| Xu_R | ^_^ |
| *** K`zan has quit IRC |
| MobileTurkey | 6 weeks is a long time, are you sure kb9vqf? |
| Xu_R | oh, i don't think I'll be able to even allocate 2 cores right now XD |
| Xu_R | https://build.opensuse.org/monitor |
| kb9vqf | yes, that's why I leased this cluster |
| kb9vqf | otherwise it takes too long |
| MobileTurkey | Xu_R: is that free? |
| kb9vqf | yes and no, basically usage is shared with a business |
| MobileTurkey | actually, archlinux has that too |
| MobileTurkey | now I think |
| kb9vqf | when the business needs it Trinity cannot use it |
| MobileTurkey | but its only for core developers |
| *** K`zan has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Xu_R | MobileTurkey: yup |
| Xu_R | MobileTurkey: the buildservice has always been free. |
| MobileTurkey | cool |
| MobileTurkey | I am going to give 1 month till GIT is done in the timeline |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| MobileTurkey | 12/01/2011 |
| Xu_R | i know that they added mandriva repo generation a few weeks ago, and they're working on adding arch pkginfo support |
| Xu_R | cool. gives me enough time to finish packaging. I hope. |
| MobileTurkey | ? |
| MobileTurkey | oh |
| kb9vqf | MobileTurkey: Q/A starts at 6 weeks before release |
| MobileTurkey | ok |
| MobileTurkey | that is a LONG time |
| kb9vqf | that can easily take a couple weeks |
| MobileTurkey | 6 weeks ago we were still getting display config done. |
| kb9vqf | I know |
| kb9vqf | and this release shipped with some pretty big bugs |
| kb9vqf | I don't want a repeat |
| KingSphinx | Bugs? Hoo boy |
| kb9vqf | The Q/A team has to flush out the bugs, we have to patch them, they have to retest... |
| MobileTurkey | kb9vqf: do we have a slackware release 3.5.13? |
| kb9vqf | not yet |
| kb9vqf | we didn't give Darrell enough tim |
| kb9vqf | *time |
| MobileTurkey | is he working on it? |
| kb9vqf | When I demand 6 weeks there are good reasons for it :) |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | AFAIK |
| kb9vqf | KingSphinx: See the known issues section of the release notes |
| kb9vqf | if you don't use the affected apps you won't notice them |
| kb9vqf | MobileTurkey: When you have saved your changes to the Wiki let me in there for a sec please :) |
| * kb9vqf wants to correct something |
| MobileTurkey | saved |
| MobileTurkey | well its loading... |
| MobileTurkey | saved |
| kb9vqf | ok hang on |
| kb9vqf | MobileTurkey: ok, you can have it back now :) |
| kb9vqf | please specify a start of the code hacking period |
| kb9vqf | I suggest 3 days after the GIT migration is complete |
| kb9vqf | to give time for the patches to be committed |
| kb9vqf | *reviewed/committed |
| MobileTurkey | ok |
| *** Xu_R|Web has joined #trinity-desktop |
| * Xu_R is rebooting server |
| MobileTurkey | kb9vqf: 12/03/2011 |
| *** Xu_R has quit IRC |
| MobileTurkey | 12/04/2011 acutally |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | also I would expect development to slow down over the holidays |
| MobileTurkey | right that is natural |
| MobileTurkey | for me it will be the opposite though |
| MobileTurkey | I have a month off of school |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | Can you work on the HAL replacement? |
| kb9vqf | i.e. do you have the know-how? |
| *** Xu_R|ZNC has joined #trinity-desktop |
| *** Xu_R|ZNC has joined #trinity-desktop |
| kb9vqf | the specs have been rotting on the Wiki for some time now |
| *** Xu_R|ZNC is now known as Xu_R |
| MobileTurkey | I dont have the know how |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| MobileTurkey | I dont have any computer know how |
| kb9vqf | ?? |
| MobileTurkey | in fact i have never taken a computer course! |
| kb9vqf | ah, ok |
| MobileTurkey | but I tend to learn as I go along |
| MobileTurkey | I will poke around |
| kb9vqf | well...HAL replacement is a bit ambitious for this release cycle unless samelian can help IMHO |
| Xu_R | kb9vqf: just pointing this to you... http://rxu.lincomlinux.org/2011/10/knetworkmanager-not-09-compatible.html - seems like I tend to attract the plasma nm dev (hehe...) |
| MobileTurkey | kb9vqf: what will you be doing? Qt4? |
| kb9vqf | NO |
| kb9vqf | Qt4 could take years TBH |
| MobileTurkey | :[ |
| kb9vqf | I don't have that kind of time |
| MobileTurkey | Xu_R: not done gtk3 at all :P not even close |
| kb9vqf | yeah, was going to say that |
| MobileTurkey | kb9vqf: well what are the proposed release goals |
| MobileTurkey | we should work on that page as well |
| Xu_R | MobileTurkey: oh well. :P |
| kb9vqf | I would like to see TQt3 and Qt4 get along in the same application |
| kb9vqf | that opens up a world of possibilities, including a first generation Trinity theme engine for Qt4 |
| MobileTurkey | webkit as well |
| kb9vqf | that will also probably take most of the 3 month dev cycle on my part |
| kb9vqf | right |
| kb9vqf | and technically solid or another similar Qt4 hardware layer |
| kb9vqf | so in my book it's High Priority |
| kb9vqf | we will also inherit all the bugs that were not fixed from 3.5.12 |
| kb9vqf | they will need to be fixed |
| *** Xu_R|Web has quit IRC |
| kb9vqf | and I can't do anywhere near all of them on my own *hint* *hint* |
| KingSphinx | Not to be nitpicky, but isn't Trinity's theme just Kubuntu 8.04's theme with a different default wallpaper? :P |
| MobileTurkey | KingSphinx: yes. |
| *** affect has quit IRC |
| MobileTurkey | thats another thing |
| MobileTurkey | someone on artwork would be awesome |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | this is another goal for 3.5.14 |
| kb9vqf | there are a lot of very nice themes on kdelook |
| kb9vqf | that might offer a starting point |
| KingSphinx | Is the "Crystal T" still just temporary? IMO, it rather suits the project. |
| kb9vqf | nope, the Crystal T is permanent |
| MobileTurkey | kb9vqf: yes we should at least import some as our own |
| MobileTurkey | kdelook is has tons of valuable stuff |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | actually we should get a TDE section on there :)) |
| MobileTurkey | that would be cool |
| KingSphinx | Wouldn't hurt to give the new section a shot, it'd give lots more attention to us |
| kb9vqf | for most things (such as wallpapers) a direct mapping to KDE/KDE4 would work just fine |
| kb9vqf | it's only KDM themes, widget styles, and descorator themes that will need separate code |
| kb9vqf | *decorator |
| kb9vqf | and actually KDM themes use XML files, so they are probably fully compatible |
| MobileTurkey | what do you think about changing the default look? |
| MobileTurkey | or are we happy with it? |
| kb9vqf | everyone here should be thinking of what they want to see in 3.5.14 so we can prioritize in the meeting on the 15th |
| kb9vqf | a better, less clunky look would be a Good Thing |
| kb9vqf | I never use that theme. Ever. |
| kb9vqf | and come to think of it no one else that I know of does either |
| kb9vqf | it really does need to go, but the art/look+feel aspect of Trinity has not been given much attention |
| MobileTurkey | hehe |
| MobileTurkey | also, signing up for GSOC next year? |
| kb9vqf | GSOC? Hmmm |
| kb9vqf | Depends on the amount of work I would have to go through to do so :)) |
| Xu_R | GSOC might be a good idea |
| KingSphinx | Use what, the Hardy Heron look? |
| MobileTurkey | I mean it's like a full time developer for a few months |
| MobileTurkey | paid in full by google |
| kb9vqf | yes, I know, so it would be quite nice |
| kb9vqf | we'll see |
| MobileTurkey | I think mostly the student would just check in with the mentor (you) |
| MobileTurkey | and stuf |
| kb9vqf | can you gather some info (deadlines, etc.) for the meeting? |
| MobileTurkey | unlikely we'd be picked but giving it a shot |
| kb9vqf | sure, I agree |
| MobileTurkey | http://www.google-melange.com/document/show/gsoc_program/google/gsoc2011/faqs |
| MobileTurkey | some bedside reading for you guys about GSOC ;) |
| Xu_R | :o |
| kb9vqf | ok, looks good |
| kb9vqf | though we will have to prioritize what we need most badly ;-) |
| kb9vqf | pie-in-the-sky type stuff |
| kb9vqf | anyway, do remember to think about the upcoming meeting |
| kb9vqf | meetings are much more productive when people come prepared |
| kb9vqf | this is going to be a planning meeting to set the direction of the 3.5.14 release |
| kb9vqf | MobileTurkey: Can you handle meeting date/time setup? |
| MobileTurkey | aye captain! |
| kb9vqf | Also a pre-meeting skeleton on the Etherpad would be good |
| MobileTurkey | I'll scurvey off the seven seas if i hafta |
| kb9vqf | :)) |
| kb9vqf | hmmm...that might make the project look bad ;-) |
| Xu_R | i'll try to check etherpad soon |
| Xu_R | lolol. |
| MobileTurkey | sounds like good stuff for tomorrow during my history class :P |
| kb9vqf | hehe |
| MobileTurkey | now I think it is time to go to bed |
| MobileTurkey | my eyeballs are falling out of my head |
| Xu_R | >_> |
| *** affect has joined #trinity-desktop |
| MobileTurkey | been staring at this screen all day without glasses |
| Xu_R | :-\ |
| MobileTurkey | language updates should also be key |
| exc_ | wiki has some links to etherpad, but etherpad can't be viewed without registration |
| MobileTurkey | exc_: yeah :/ |
| MobileTurkey | kb9vqf: ^ are we going to fix that ever? |
| kb9vqf | ah dar |
| kb9vqf | *darn |
| kb9vqf | yes, probably |
| MobileTurkey | kb9vqf: also, is kubuntu-desktop-trinity still exist? |
| MobileTurkey | http://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/lwozj/trinity_desktop_environment_3513_released/c2way3f |
| MobileTurkey | someone said they didn't see it |
| exc_ | i don't see many packages in squeeze/i386 |
| exc_ | probably it isn't done |
| kb9vqf | not on the mirrors yet... |
| kb9vqf | it exists |
| KingSphinx | Lo and behold, Muon's telling me that too. Searching "trinity" gives a whole bunch of crud, but using sudo apt-get install kubuntu-default-settings-trinity kubuntu-desktop-trinity yields nothing. |
| kb9vqf | MobileTurkey: I updated the 3.5.14 roadmap |
| MobileTurkey | ok |
| kb9vqf | KingSphinx: The package lists have not yet made it to the mirrors. Trust me, it's there (I'm staring right at it on my local repository) |
| kb9vqf | I am starting to think I really bungled by sending out the notice before the binaries were mirrored |
| kb9vqf | Oh well, live + learn |
| KingSphinx | Well, at least I know the repos are working. |
| MobileTurkey | yeah :/ |
| kb9vqf | sorry all |
| kb9vqf | allowing more time next release so we won't have this problem :)) |
| KingSphinx | Is this the first release to have this "problem"? |
| kb9vqf | yes, because it was rushed a bit at the end |
| kb9vqf | the Fedora/RHEL packages were a surprise |
| kb9vqf | and have been bogging down the mirror resync |
| KingSphinx | A rather pleasant surprise, but it doesn't help mirror matters |
| kb9vqf | right |
| MobileTurkey | kb9vqf: okay so the roadmap looks excellent |
| MobileTurkey | week of march 18th is when we go into freeze if we release the 1st |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | ironic that we are coming OUT of the deep freeze weather-wise at that point :) |
| MobileTurkey | hehe |
| MobileTurkey | okay I am going to bed |
| MobileTurkey | Goodnight Xu_R, kb9vqf, KingSphinx |

| likedit | I came from http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=MTAwOTk here. As a normal user, when KDE 4 was released I went over to Gnome. Now Gnome3 is there and I will likely go to XFCE since it is in most Distros avaible. The screenshoot of Trinity made me feel nostalgic... I hope you can keep it alive, because I really think it is the better DE. I am sure the newer DEs will fail at some point, that would be your time t |
| *** likedit has quit IRC |
| *** KingSphinx has joined #trinity-desktop |
| edogaa | lol, on one note I Don't think they'll fail, these DEs will always have their users but I Wouldn't be surprised when Trinity gets some popularity from users like...well who just like the KDE3 way of doing things |
| KingSphinx | Or those who just want a good, stable, traditional desktop? |
| edogaa | Well, that's in the same category as people who like doing things the kde3 way, or rather the group I ptu them into lol |
| edogaa | But same group could also go for forks of GNOME2, maybe GNOME 3 with an improving fallback mode? Or XFCE4. KDE3 is still better in a lot of otherways but I try to be realistic rather than seeing every project falling :/ and yadda yadda... |

| vhumpa | Hi guys, probably been asked a plenty of times, but is there any place with the new RPM packages built? The fedora and rhel repo links go 404 as well as I cant see any rpms on the server. Still building I guess? |

| Edogaa | I Mean, I knew it take a while to sync just wasn't sure how long :/ |
| Z_God | Edogaa: it means they sync once per day |
| Z_God | not that the sync takes a full day |
| Edogaa | K :/ just getting a little impatient since I can't seem to install it yet. lol |
| Z_God | you should try finding a mirror that is complete already if you're really in a hurry ;) |
| rzs19 | is the sync done for the debian squeeze mirrors? it just wants to update 16 packages, is that right? i want update from 3.5.12 to 3.5.13. |
| Z_God | you can check the versions of the packages |
| vhumpa | Care to share some mirrors other than http://mirror.its.uidaho.edu/pub/trinity/ ? :) |

| MutantTurkey | thistle_: still no? |
| MutantTurkey | must be still uploading to the mirror |
| thistle_ | still no |

| Z_God | Edogaa: maybe you can just edit that repo file? |

| MutantTurkey | load balancing |
| Edogaa | o.O Ah |
| *** vhumpa has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Edogaa | and since that mirror doesn't work at all...I'd assume it has the 'least load to deal with' and is automatically selected? or more random than that lol |
| MutantTurkey | Edogaa: they typically all work |
| MutantTurkey | with the f17 packages and RHEL last minute, it's been more than expected |
| MutantTurkey | not sure whats going on. |
| MutantTurkey | stoichiometry is so much fun >_> Xu_R |
| Edogaa | Hmm, noarch and 64 bit? |
| MutantTurkey | noarch means you can intsall on any system. |
| Edogaa | Ah. |
| Edogaa | So, I assume this includes arm, and stuff not just x86? |
| MutantTurkey | I assume. |
| Z_God | there are no binaries in noarch packages |
| Edogaa | looks like I'll have to wait. |
| thistle_ | MutantTurkey: I gather you mean http://mirrors.its.uidaho.edu. Unfortunately they do not have an Oneiric mirror. |
| MutantTurkey | they do thistle_ |

| Edogaa | Yes. |
| Edogaa | Requires: trinity-kdepim >= 3.5.13 also for kdeartwork...utils,artwork, base... |
| MutantTurkey | whats the problem? |
| MutantTurkey | It requires that |
| MutantTurkey | anyway, off to lunch! cya guys |
| vhumpa | Strange, all the packages are there |
| vhumpa | I do have some dep conflicts, but only due to I have F16 not 15 |
| Edogaa | yu're right :/ |
| vhumpa | Did you get the .repo file and edit it for the mangafrance? |
| Edogaa | yes |
| vhumpa | And yum install trinity-desktop still does that... |
| vhumpa | Hm, wierd |
| Edogaa | then, 'packages skipped due to dependency problems' |
| *** MutantTurkey has quit IRC |

| drakuwa | hello everybody, anyone know why the Fedora/RHEL repos aren't available? |
| Z_God | drakuwa: the mirrors are still syncing |
| KingSphinx | drakuwa: As far as I know, none of the repos are available yet due to mirroring issues. Adding the RHEL/Fedora repos at the last minute is actually what caused this, oddly enough. Best advice I can give is to just wait it out and check every so often to see if the mirrors are up. |
| KingSphinx | Next release of Trinity shouldn't have these issues though, lol |
| drakuwa | thanks for the answer... |
| drakuwa | I found this one in the logs http://trinity.mangafrance.com/f15/trinity-3.5.13-f15.repo is it worth trying? |
| drakuwa | not really ... ok sorry for bothering you guys, I guess I'll wait :D |
| KingSphinx | Eh, I'm in the same boat as you, except I use Kubuntu... |
| KingSphinx | ...wow, I can't believe I just remembered my first experience with KDE 3.x :P |
| Z_God | KingSphinx: when was it? :P |
| KingSphinx | It was on a computer I had rebuilt as a school project, and since I had the computer for a while after the project was over, I figured I'd install Debian on it. Turns out Debian Lenny had a broken version of GDM, so I reinstalled with just the minimal set of tools, then installed KDE thinking it was going to be KDE 4.x... I was quite surprised at what had appeared instead. |
| KingSphinx | (I had no idea of what pre-4.x-KDE was like at the time, mind you.) |
| Z_God | ah wow |
| Z_God | so you experience KDE 4 before 3 and stuck with 3? :) |
| Z_God | experienced* |
| KingSphinx | Really liked it though, ran quite smoothly on that old Celeron processor with... maybe half a GB of RAM? |
| KingSphinx | And yes, my first KDE was 4.2 if I remember correctly. |
| Z_God | maybe you'll like KDE 1 even more ;) |
| KingSphinx | Funny how I used 4 before 3, and still prefer the older one. Probably has to do with how 3.x didn't crash all the time :P |
| Z_God | that's indeed interesting |
| KingSphinx | Haha, probably not, but it does look nice for something so old. |
| Z_God | KDE 1 ran fine with 64 MB of RAM btw :P |
| KingSphinx | (that was in response to 1.x) |
| KingSphinx | What was your first experience with KDE? (Might as well ask since I have nothing to do until the mirrors sync) |
| Edogaa | >_> |
| thistle_ | I think I went fvwm then openstep for a short time then KDE3. |
| Edogaa | I first tried PCLinuxOS on a liveCD, it was during 2006 or so. They used KDE3, it was nice, at first I Kinda liked KDE4, but it didn't quite grow on me. :/ Tried KDE3 on debian 6 when I heard of trinity and found it to be a bit nicer. |
| thistle_ | I tried to like KDE4 but couldn't stand how slow it made my machine. |
| Edogaa | Eh, I can't figure out what but I just can't like it :/ |
| KingSphinx | 4 runs okay on my machine, I just don't like how often Plasma still crashes and how memory-hungry it gets (750 MB minimum is almost Windows 7-level bloated) |
| *** kaiomatico has joined #trinity-desktop |
| thistle_ | It took a long time to compile KDE3 from the FreeBSD ports tree. |
| thistle_ | that was around freebsd 4.6 |
| thistle_ | can't remember for sure |
| KingSphinx | I've heard that from GNOME 3 onward, GNOME will be Linux-only. Kinda odd how KDE is now the only real DE of coice for stuff like BSD/Solaris (unless Oracle manages to make something of their own again) |
| KingSphinx | *choice |
| Edogaa | I don't think they'l be Linux-Only |
| Edogaa | That was a suggest from some guy at red hat |
| Edogaa | If it does...then sigh. |
| Edogaa | I believe it was that poettering dude? |
| KingSphinx | Not like I use it much anymore anyway, I'm just not a fan of the direction desktops seems to be going in nowadays. Sure, they're noob-friendly, but that's at the expense of everyone else. |
| KingSphinx | Besides, I don't see how stuff like Trinity is any less noob-friendly than any other desktop. Heck, I'd think it would be more ideal for someone switching from Windows since it has a similar layout. |
| kaiomatico | Word. |

| kaiomatico | quick question, are there any new live cd builds coming soon? maybe even debian based, not ubuntu? |
| KingSphinx | Speaking of multiple desktop though, I've read that Windows doesn't include them because they believe people are too stupid to know how to use them? |

| ian_ | hello everyone |
| Edogaa | there is always virtualwin but it feels like crap |
| KingSphinx | And kaiomatico, there are apparently ISOs for Trinity somewhere, but I don't know where. Would love to see a Debian Live CD of this, because Debian gave me my first experience with KDE 3.x ;) |
| ian_ | so I'm running Ubuntu 11.10, and I'm having trouble installing the project |
| ian_ | I followed the instructions to a t |
| KingSphinx | Repo issues? |
| KingSphinx | If it's repo issues, the mirrors aren't quite done syncing yet, so I'd give it some time before trying to install Trinity. |
| rzs19 | Debian with Trinity, Trinian :D |
| ian_ | here's what I see in my term http://pastebin.com/x6yCPPAF |
| KingSphinx | Yep, that's the same thing I get. Just wait a while and try again until you're able to install it is all I can really tell you. :/ |

| Z_God | KingSphinx: my first experience with KDE was with SuSE 6.1 |
| rzs19 | somone used openlinux? |
| rzs19 | i think openlinux 2.3 was my first distribution with kde |
| KingSphinx | So you really did use KDE from the beginning? Wow. |
| Edogaa | ,,,hmmmm I Wonder what SuSE stands for? o.O |
| Edogaa | I never paid attention but Su...SE |
| Edogaa | why are the last two letter in caps, is there a meaning behind it!? D: |
| Z_God | System und Software Entwikkelung |
| Z_God | or smth like that, my german is a bit rusty |
| KingSphinx | Sounds about right, though I don't speak German. :P |
| Edogaa | lol.... |
| Edogaa | System and Software Enterprise I assume? |
| Z_God | no |
| Z_God | System and Software Development |
| Edogaa | Damn, I Was hoping to take a guess xD |
| Z_God | ;) |
| KingSphinx | "Software and Systems Development" according to Wikipedia |
| Z_God | ah I switched the Ss |
| Edogaa | xD |
| rzs19 | damn, under openlinux i had kde 1.1 ... long, long time ago... |
| Z_God | yeah in suse I used 1 at least |
| Z_God | dunno if I experienced 1.0 |
| Z_God | I still have a book which describes the KDE 1 betas |
| Z_God | with a screenshot |
| rzs19 | It seems like we are getting old... |
| Z_God | yep... |
| KingSphinx | 1.1's not that different, I think... probably just stability improvements and whatnot. |
| rzs19 | Here is a KDE 1.1 Development book... |

| rzs19 | ähm at work* |
| KingSphinx | TWin? It is Trinity, after all. |
| Edogaa | hmmm, kde1 lol |
| * Edogaa is wiking KDE SC. |
| Z_God | KDE 1 rocked really |
| Z_God | it kicked Windows 98's butt |
| Z_God | I ran it on an AMD K6-2 333MHz with 64MB RAM |
| Edogaa | o.O KDE1 was released in 1998? |
| Edogaa | Did you guys just use window managers before then? lol |
| Edogaa | Like, Enlightenment 16? or FVWM? |
| KingSphinx | If I still had my old Compaq Presario, I'd think about putting something like Puppy on it. |
| KingSphinx | And yes, for the most part, people used window managers for a GUI before GNOME and KDE, I believe. |
| rzs19 | btw: twin is maybe a bad idea for a new name, there is a textmode window manager called twin |
| rzs19 | http://freecode.com/projects/twin |
| KingSphinx | Aw, really. Crap. |

| Edogaa | Tounqueror sounds silly, I'd say something like Tkonq would sound better. Though, the K would still have too much of KDE In it |
| KingSphinx | Though this is something to think about... hey, what about Amarok? If the Clementine team's help hadn't already been refused, I'd have considered changing Amarok's name to Clementine since Clementine is pretty much just a port of Amarok 1.4 |
| rzs19 | http://blog.martin-graesslin.com/blog/2011/11/the-grass-has-always-been-greener-on-the-other-side-of-the-fence/ |
| Z_God | KingSphinx: port to what? |
| rzs19 | yep tonqueror sounds, strange... it was just a joke... |
| KingSphinx | Clementine is a port of Amarok 1.4 to Qt4; a while back, the Clementine team asked if they could help with managing Amarok in Trinity, but were politely refused. |
| Edogaa | Oh? :/ |
| Edogaa | Why did you guys refuse them? D: |
| Z_God | and why did they port amarok again? |
| Z_God | there is also amarok 2 for qt4 |
| KingSphinx | A lot of people didn't like the massive changes between amarok 1.4 and Amarok 2, so Clementine was created. |
| Edogaa | Yeah, clementine was a little nicer imho, surei t didn't have some of the features (that I could notice) but if you just want a music player it's nice, small doesn't get in your way and looks good. |
| Z_God | I see |
| Edogaa | mioght be wrong on the small part though lol |
| KingSphinx | No, you're right, one of the best parts about Amarok 1.4 was how light it was. |
| Edogaa | but anyways, I am curious why refuse their help? o.O;; |
| KingSphinx | Probably for reasons only Tim knows... :P |
| Edogaa | Ah |

| rzs19 | this post... how can i explain it... |
| Z_God | there is only one main point really |
| rzs19 | there stands "Trinity - Desktop without Future" |
| Z_God | lack of developers |
| Edogaa | How many active devs are there curiously? |
| KingSphinx | From what I read in a (sadly no longer online) review of 3.5.12, I think about... 12? |
| Z_God | seems like a high number to me really ... |

| Xu_R | SuSE still supports KDE3 in 12.1 |
| KingSphinx | Whoa, seriously? |
| Xu_R | yea |
| rzs19 | well i was too a SuSE Fanboy ;) |
| KingSphinx | .13 or .10? |
| Xu_R | .10 |
| Xu_R | although the KDE3 maintainer has an unreasonable view that pisses off other factory devs... |
| KingSphinx | You'd think they'd want to offer Trinity, but oh well. |
| rzs19 | but yast is nothing for me. |
| * Xu_R had to stop Ilya from throwing KDE3 down a hill in early October >_> |
| KingSphinx | What do you mean "unreasonable view"? |
| Xu_R | quote: "It's not Ilya if he doesn't think that the number of packages equals the better and the more maintained" ~factory dev |
| Xu_R | sigh |
| Xu_R | anyway |
| KingSphinx | Ooohhh, the whole "we have more stuff, therefore we're better" view? |
| Xu_R | yup |
| MobileTurkey_ | no changing ilya :/ |
| MobileTurkey_ | KingSphinx: and the "dont change anything" view |
| MobileTurkey_ | just keeps it compiling, not improving |
| KingSphinx | I wonder if openSUSE has ever thought of offering Trinity instead of the quickly-bit-rotting 3.5.10? |
| Xu_R | it has. I'm supposed to be packaging it. >_> but Ilya is stuck in his old KDE3 ways... |
| KingSphinx | But Trinity works with all previous KDE3 apps, doesn't it? |
| Xu_R | it does |
| Z_God | KingSphinx: there are Trinity patches in there |
| Z_God | and Trinity also have multiple patches from SUSE |
| KingSphinx | Seems kinda quick-and-dirty if you ask me. |
| Z_God | it's not completely separate |
| Z_God | Ilya probably doesn't like the TQt idea (yet) |
| Xu_R | ... |
| KingSphinx | The guy's insane to not fully adopt Trinity IMO. |
| Xu_R | Ilya put KDE2 and claimed it is awesome. |
| MobileTurkey_ | Xu_R needs to get the packages done so we can just no longer deal with Ilya |
| MobileTurkey_ | ya? |
| Xu_R | yea |
| Edogaa | what is illya? |
| KingSphinx | There's a screenshot of KDE 2 running on openSUSE 11.2 on Wikipedia. |

| Xu_R | I can, but I need a day. |
| KingSphinx | The one thing I like about KDE 2: that granite background in just about everything. I'm a bit of a sucker for old-school stuff like that. :P |
| Xu_R | oh wait |
| rzs19 | soo, i have to go home, wish you a nice evening. |
| * Xu_R facepalms xD |
| Xu_R | yes, I can |
| Z_God | KingSphinx: all this stuff is available in KDE 3 as well |
| Z_God | and it's not KDE 2's default setting either |
| KingSphinx | You can do that granite stuff? How? I never could figure that out in 3.5.12 |
| Z_God | KDE 2.2.2 and 3.0 were pretty much the same |
| Z_God | it was mainly a port from Qt2 to Qt3 |
| *** Piki has joined #trinity-desktop |

| Z_God | you can set such backgrounds for your desktop & kicker I think |
| KingSphinx | I got how to get the klassik (pardon the pun) theme and icons, but I could never figure out how to get that stone look. |
| KingSphinx | Not the wallpaper, that's easy as pie to figure out. |
| Z_God | you can set an image for kicker as well |

| Z_God | appearancee |
| Z_God | below panel background |
| KingSphinx | Oh, I know that... speaking of which, in 3.5.12, the Kicker images were in two separate spots, so it got a bit tedious trying to switch between them. |
| MobileTurkey_ | git checkouts taking forever :| |
| KingSphinx | The default was in the proper /opt/kde3/share/apps/kicker/wallpapers location, but the rest were still in /usr/share/apps/kicker/wallpapers for some reason. |
| Z_God | the other way around it seems |
| Z_God | but it's probably a bug |
| KingSphinx | Can't check to see if it's fixed in 3.5.13 because the mirrors aren't working yet. |

| MutantTurkey | Space_Man: can you modify it? |
| MutantTurkey | actually dont worry |
| anditosan | well, the site is back up and I added the sources for oneiric and the gpg key but the kubuntu-default-desktop and trinty one do not show |
| MutantTurkey | I am already editing it |
| Space_Man | I tried, but the wiki said something about "access" |
| Piki | Harmonium, go to http://trinitydesktop.org/ and choose your ubuntu/kubuntu version from the Official Trinity Binaries section |

| MutantTurkey | Space_Man: do you have an account? |
| Harmonium | Oh, my bad, .d is not empty. There it is. |
| Piki | Harmonium, if it's there, you can find the new lines on trinitydesktop.org, just modify the lines to match the new versions |
| Harmonium | That's done. Now should I just run the update program? |
| Piki | yes |
| MutantTurkey | aye |
| Space_Man | MutantTurkey: yes, I created it a few months ago |
| MutantTurkey | Space_Man: weird then |

| KingSphinx | D: I still can't install it... |
| MutantTurkey | Harmonium: amarok from trinity? |
| Space_Man | finally logged in "Access check on Developers.3_5_14_Roadmap failed. Action "CHANGE": access not allowed on web." |
| Piki | Harmonium, if you don't interrupt the update, it should be fine. worst case, you'll just need to reset your settings for tde |
| Space_Man | maybe becuase it's already open? |
| MutantTurkey | Space_Man: no |
| MutantTurkey | I dont have it open now |
| Harmonium | Must be. This is the kubuntu 10.10 iso from the trinity site. |
| MutantTurkey | I may have admin access on my wiki permissions |

| MutantTurkey | Space_Man: if you want to make notes for the release, add it to the etherpa |
| Piki | Harmonium, does it want to remove amarok or amarok-trinity? (if you don't have the -trinity in the package name, it's not amarok from trinity) |
| Piki | you can also search for amarok and check what version you have installed |
| Harmonium | no, the packages just say "amarok-kde3" and "k3b-kde3" |
| MutantTurkey | the kde3' name scheme has been replaces with -trinity |
| Piki | hmm, did tim name the packages differently for ubuntu than he did for debian? |
| MutantTurkey | no, old ones are called -kde3 |
| Harmonium | Ah, I see. Thanks. |
| MutantTurkey | they are transition packages to the new name -trinity |
| MutantTurkey | Harmonium: you can probably install amarok-trinity |
| Harmonium | hmm... I got an error during the update. Window titled "Could not commit changes", says commiting would break packages or there was a problem downloading the packages... |
| Piki | mirrors might not be finished grabbing the new packages |
| Piki | tim's servers did go down before it could finish sending out the new packages |
| Harmonium | I opened the updater again. Now in the list there are two packages named "guidance-backends-kde3" and "kde-style-qtcurve-kde3" that say "BROKEN (installed)" |
| MutantTurkey | :| |
| MutantTurkey | honestly I dont really know how it works because you installed using the livecd |
| MutantTurkey | Harmonium: I suggest you post on the mailing list, responses are quick and it'll reach a wider crowd |

| user1557 | I just tried a minute ago, and I am able to import the GPG key, but get "Unable to locate package kubuntu-default-settings-trinity", etc when trying to install |
| Piki | did you do "sudo apt-get update" before trying to install? |
| user1557 | yes. this is on Xubuntu 11.10 |
| edogaa | :/ Hmm, I seriously wonder why I get those circulat dependecny is it? issue... |
| edogaa | lemme cp |
| user1557 | When I try to just get kdebase-trinity, I get "Package kdebase-trinity is not available, but is referred to by another package.", etc |
| Piki | user1557, did you add the lines to /etc/apt/sources.list that the instructions have? the lines from http://trinitydesktop.org/installation.php#ubuntu? |
| user1557 | When I try to get kdebase-kde3, I get "kdebase-kde3 : Depends: kdebase-trinity but it is not installable" |
| user1557 | Piki: yes |
| edogaa | http://pastebin.com/306QpSAM |
| edogaa | is it because the servers aren't synced right still o.O |
| Piki | might be, tim said it would take from 24-48 hours to sync after his servers came back |
| Piki | user1557, edogaa, try replacing the lines from the instructions with http://mirror.its.uidaho.edu/pub/trinity/ |
| user1557 | ok, I did try that earlier, but l'll try again |
| Piki | you only need replace the http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/ part, everything else should be the same |
| Piki | so http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity/... and http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity-builddeps/... |
| Piki | don't know if fedora is there, and i don't know if all of the versions of ubuntu are there |
| *** KingSphinx has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Piki | but it seems some of the stuff did make it |
| KingSphinx | Welp, I now have a fresh Debian Lenny drink coaster... somehow, Lenny Live starts ina video mode that my monitor cannot display. |
| Piki | user1557, edogaa, if it doesn't work using uidaho, then you guys will just have to wait for the packages to continue syncing out |
| user1557 | Yeah, it gave me the same message. |
| Piki | they were supposed to have already started going out earlier today, but with tim's ISP going down, they probably aren't anywhere close to going out |
| Piki | or at least, not close to finishing |
| user1557 | I thought the Slashdot story would probably wreck the servers |
| *** n0xx has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Piki | that's what everyone was saying, but tim said something about his ISP cutting their fiber optic cables when he was here earlier |
| KingSphinx | I have a feeling Slashdot may have caused the initial outage, because I recall the site going back up for a brief while before dying again. |
| Piki | and fiber optics are supposed to be hard to repair/replace |
| *** n0xx is now known as n0xx0ff |
| user1557 | Yeah, I didn't know 3.5.13 was out until I checked Slashdot. Serves me right I guess. lol |
| Piki | i didn't know until i looked at trinitydesktop.org today, right before it died the first time |
| Piki | that's when i first heard about the slashdot article :-) |
| user1557 | OS News ran an article on it too. Nice to see Trinity getting some attention. |
| n0xx0ff | humm... so i guess the repos are down right? :| |
| Piki | so of course when i go to download the source code (i'm going to be making packages for another distro), i get cut off and now i need to use uidaho until tim's servers stabilize :-) |
| Piki | n0xx0ff, partially down |
| user1557 | of course! |
| n0xx0ff | bummer... :( |
| KingSphinx | Use uidaho's mirrors until the "real" ones come back. |
| Piki | tim's servers were down most of the day, that's where the mirrors get their packages, and the packages were en route to the mirrors when tim's servers went down |
| KingSphinx | Any idea how much made it to uidaho? |
| Piki | uidaho has most of the packages, should work for /some/ versions of ubuntu/debian, not sure hich |
| Piki | n0xx0ff, the servers came back just a few minutes ago, so more packages should be going out |
| user1557 | Piki, thanks for the help. I'll try again tomorrow |
| n0xx0ff | yeah ty Piki... :) |
| n0xx0ff | cya m8s |
| *** n0xx0ff has quit IRC |
| *** user1557 has quit IRC |
| KingSphinx | Blah... I want to use uidaho, but I don't know if I'd be left with only a partially-working system because of missing stuff. |
| Piki | KingSphinx, if you'll be missing stuff, apt-get won't even proceed |
| Piki | it'll tell you something like "not available but it's referred to by another package" or "depends on ... but it's not installable" or something similar |
| KingSphinx | The wonders of failsafes. :P |
| Piki | i think it has the --force option, but i don't recommend it :-) |
| KingSphinx | Guess I should get around to trying to get Trinity then. |
| Piki | if you're in lenny, it should alread be there since .12 was synced awhile ago :-) |
| KingSphinx | No, still in Kubuntu, I only burned the Lenny CD to toy around in the Live CD environment. Turns out the display doesn't work though, so I pretty much have a Lenny-labeled drink coaster. |
| Piki | if it was a RW, erase it and reuse it :-) |
| KingSphinx | So what would I add instead of the main repos? And no, sadly, it was only an R |
| edogaa | HMm |
| edogaa | I don't think that link you sent me will work, I took a look at the file hierarchy and I only see debian or ubuntu stuff on there |
| Piki | KingSphinx, deb http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity-builddeps-v3.5.13/ubuntu and http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity-v3.5.13/ubuntu |
| Piki | everything else the same |
| Piki | edogaa, didn't look at the fedora/redhat instructions, just noticed yum in your pastebin ;-) |
| KingSphinx | I meant for the uidaho mirror, I don't think pearson is quite fully up yet. |
| Piki | edogaa, the site is back, so you can try the instructions there again |
| Piki | KingSphinx, oops, hold on, |
| Piki | KingSphinx, http://mirror.its.uidaho.edu/pub/trinity/trinity-builddeps-v3.5.13/ubuntu/ , http://mirror.its.uidaho.edu/pub/trinity/trinity-v3.5.13/ubuntu/ |
| edogaa | same thing |
| Piki | edogaa, http://trinitydesktop.org/installation.php#redhat |
| KingSphinx | I'm trying pearson once again to see if by some miracle it's back, but thanks for the info, I'll add it if pearson won't work. |
| edogaa | followed that |
| Piki | edogaa, the mirrors may not be sync'ed yet, i don't even know if tim's quickbuild has rpms, last i checked it only did debs. those repo files it has you download might point to someone else's mirror, or they may be in tim's servers but not synced yet |
| KingSphinx | Piki: I think I screwed up adding those to sources.list. Konsole threw up " |
| KingSphinx | philip@philip-Dell-DXP061:~$ sudo apt-get update |
| KingSphinx | E: Malformed line 63 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list (dist) |
| KingSphinx | E: The list of sources could not be read. |
| KingSphinx | ...wow that all pasted? |
| Piki | KingSphinx, what's on line 63 of /etc/apt/sources.list? |
| KingSphinx | eb http://mirror.its.uidaho.edu/pub/trinity/trinity-builddeps-v3.5.13/ubuntu/ |
| KingSphinx | deb http://mirror.its.uidaho.edu/pub/trinity/trinity-builddeps-v3.5.13/ubuntu/er. |
| KingSphinx | God, it's not pasting right, hang on. |
| KingSphinx | deb http://mirror.its.uidaho.edu/pub/trinity/trinity-builddeps-v3.5.13/ubuntu/ |
| KingSphinx | That's line 63 in my sources.list. |
| Piki | if that's it, you're missing two things |
| KingSphinx | Add /dists/oneiric/ to it? |
| Piki | nope |
| Piki | deb http://mirror.its.uidaho.edu/pub/trinity/trinity-builddeps-v3.5.13/ubuntu/ oneiric main |
| Piki | it goes: deb [base-url] [distro-or-distro-version] [specific-repos-to-access] |
| Piki | the last part is separated by spaces |
| Piki | if you want to add a repo that contains the distro-specific source code packages rather than the binary packages, you'd start it with deb-src instead of deb |
| Piki | you can copy both of the uidaho lines and start them with deb-src if you want/need the source code used for oneirc |
| KingSphinx | Even if I don't, I always add deb-src to repos just in case. |
| *** jmma has quit IRC |
| Piki | if the repo maintainers provide f\oss project and they don't provide the source code, something's wrong :-) there should always be a deb-src available |
| KingSphinx | *sigh* Still can't install Trinity, getting the same errors about packages not found. |
| Piki | even if the user chooses not to include it :-) |
| Piki | KingSphinx, probably not finished syncing yet, if you have natty available, i think mutantturtle said he was able to install it on that |
| KingSphinx | Then that means I'm hosed, I use Oneiric. |
| Piki | i don't use any of them |
| KingSphinx | What do you use then? |
| Piki | nor any of the distros that already have packages available :-) |
| Piki | i use Ark Linux |
| Piki | been awhile since a release, we keep running into our road blocks, i think our last stable release has kde 3.5.10 |
| Piki | i need to get tde packages going for our development version |
| Piki | i'm about ready to kick our head dev though, he really needs to get things going with either apt-rpm5 or the rpm5 port of zypper, been nagging him about that for months, it's the only reason i don't have .12 packaged already :-) |
| Piki | unfortunately i'm not in switzerland and i doubt he's coming to pgh, so i /can't/ kick him |
| KingSphinx | Wow, Ark uses both RPM and APT? |
| Piki | our stable releases all use RPM4 and apt |
| Piki | but the apt-rpm port of apt wasn't ported to rpm5 until recently, and we switched to rpm5 for our development version |
| Piki | our head dev started porting zypper to rpm5, then seems to have quit on that when apt-rpm5 was done, now he doesn't seem to be doing anything with the package manager |
| Piki | but i still see his packages being updated |
| Piki | and his build server doesn't auto-update, and he has been on our irc channel, but he seems undecided on it |
| Piki | until he decides, i'm stuck with an iso from january because too much has updated for me to bother installing the new rpms by hand |
| Piki | *sigh* if only we could release, since we're for newbies, we could bring newbie attention to tde, more potential testers and coders for both tde and ark |
| KingSphinx | Ark seems about as newbie-friendly as older versions of Ubuntu... that's a compliment, the newer releases of Ubuntu do a bit too much hand-holding for my taste |
| Piki | um... us Arkies would rather not be compared to ubuntu, we hate it :-) |
| Piki | especially our head dev, he thinks they're owned by microsoft ;-) |
| Piki | i personally don't hate it, i just dislike it, it has gotten better, but still not good enough for my tastes |

| ian_ | I read that a new release was out so I ran an apt-get update on my Debian Squeeze which uses Trinity. Nothing was updated. When I looked into this further I discovered that it's been released in such a way as to need a whole new set of entries in sources.list. This seems to be a poor way to release an update for Debian packages. |
| MutantTurkey | ? |
| MutantTurkey | it was quite necessary because it's an entirely new release |
| MutantTurkey | some package names changed etc |
| MutantTurkey | especially since some people will continue running 3.5.12 on systems that are too old for 5.13 |
| ian_ | It's numbered as a point release, .12 to .13. What's the recommended way of updating? Do I have to remove the old one first? What happens if I don't? Do I do apt-get update or apt-get install? |
| MutantTurkey | first you should read this mailing list post that just came out |
| MutantTurkey | (just read it myself) |
| MutantTurkey | http://trinity-devel.pearsoncomputing.net/?0::3292 |
| ian_ | Thanks for that, MT. I'm not on the mailing list so I hadn't seen it. So it looks as if it might be worth waiting for a day or two. |
| ian_ | But if the release team are reading this it might be worth making clear to users what's the best way for .12 users to update. |
| MutantTurkey | ian_: I suggest you get on the announcement ML, it's very low traffic, but has information like that. |
| ian_ | Maybe - but really stuff like that should be there for all to see and not dependent on users being on a mailing list for cognoscenti. |

| tonda-1337 | Hello! |
| tonda-1337 | Just installes a brand new Scientific Linux 6.1 and i'd like to install trinity on it. |
| tonda-1337 | But... |
| KingSphinx | Does Scientific Linux work with Red Hat repositories? |
| tonda-1337 | http://pastebin.com/n9zijw2u |
| tonda-1337 | yep. it should work |
| tonda-1337 | trinity's mirrors just suck. |
| tonda-1337 | :-( |
| KingSphinx | The Pearson repositories are still working on getting binary packages available. This most recent release has had a bit of a shaky time trying to get out, for several reasons. |
| edogaa | :/ sadly. |
| KingSphinx | (fiber lines being cut, Slashdot bringing it down accidentally, the last-minute addition of RHEL/Fedora repositories, you name it) |
| edogaa | D: |
| tonda-1337 | yeah. but why do they publish a tutorial for installing it on a rhel6 machine, which is not tested... |
| edogaa | :/ so will it really be back up on friday or is that just optimism? lol |
| KingSphinx | These problems were all sort of unanticipated, since Trinity's never had this kind of wide release before. |
| tonda-1337 | :-( |
| KingSphinx | This is the first release for RHEL/Fedora, and there may be openSUSE support on the way as well. |
| tonda-1337 | so there is no way to install trinity on my sl6 atm.?! :-(((( |
| edogaa | source? xD |
| tonda-1337 | yeah.. of course... but i'm lazy :-p |
| edogaa | the most dreadful and infuriating of ways D: |
| tonda-1337 | no.. i love compiling.. but i guess building trinity will take days and will end in some serious compile errors -.- |
| KingSphinx | Just out of curiosity, what desktop are you stuck with for the time being? |
| tonda-1337 | gnome |
| tonda-1337 | (2) |
| edogaa | XFCE on my end, though i can use gnome or kde4 too. :| |
| KingSphinx | Could be worse... you could be stuck on KDE 4.7 like me. |
| edogaa | lolololol xD |
| *** Strangelv has quit IRC |
| tonda-1337 | nah. kde4 isn't that bad... i quite like it, but i like kde3 more. easier to use |
| KingSphinx | I know, I just can't resist ripping on KDE4. :P |
| KingSphinx | It's 4.7, and Plasma still crashes for odd reasons. |
| tonda-1337 | yep. got these errors on arch too... |
| KingSphinx | Whoever though making Plasma manage the entire desktop should be given a swift kick. Not only can one bad component bring the whole thing down, it goes totally against the UNIX philosophy that a program should do one thing, and do it well. |
| Fleck | i hate pulseaudio stuff, hate what they did with kmail and hate that new akonadi |
| Fleck | and few more things :D |
| tonda-1337 | ...and the new amarok.. |
| edogaa | pulseaudio, it isn't so bad these days |
| Fleck | yeah, using clementine |
| KingSphinx | I use Clementine instead of Amarok 2 |
| tonda-1337 | i'm using clementine too... it's great |
| Fleck | edogaa well it is... using hwmix card and my audio has drops and pops on 6 core cpu |
| tonda-1337 | it should be included in kde sc |
| Fleck | thats stupid! |
| Fleck | so i remove it after updates - and using pure alsa |
| Fleck | works perfectly! |
| KingSphinx | Does it pop and drop (hey, that rhymed!) on ALSA? |
| KingSphinx | Wait, never mind that. |
| Fleck | :) |
| Fleck | i miss normal desktop where i can put icons on desktop and they are aligned and in the same size |
| edogaa | yep, and were if you mass highlight the icons |
| edogaa | you can move them all at once |
| Fleck | yep! :) |
| tonda-1337 | :-) |
| edogaa | and top notch dual monitor support D: |
| Fleck | ehh, feels so nice that somebody understands and thinks in the same way i am! :) |
| KingSphinx | Granted, that mode is possible in KDE4, but it just isn't the same. |
| Fleck | and i like that mixer thingie... you can put it in panel! :) |
| Fleck | and it has small volume controls :D |
| KingSphinx | The mixer is one of the only things I couldn't figure out in KDE3; I can't get it to put sound through my USB headset. |
| tonda-1337 | they trashed all working linux desktops... kde3, gnome2... that's soo sad :-( |
| edogaa | you still have XFCE |
| edogaa | and LXDE |
| tonda-1337 | lol |
| tonda-1337 | you can't really compare them to kde3 or gnome2 |
| KingSphinx | Technically, KDE3 isn't trashed now... it's BACK FROM BEYOND THE GRAVE! :P |
| tonda-1337 | they aren't that complete and perfect |
| edogaa | and OpenBox + Tint2 + several wallpaper-like programs and every other thing you need to make a Desktoplike environment |
| edogaa | Though, you won't have usable Desktop icons :| |
| KingSphinx | And remember, GNOME 2 had 9 years to get where it was. |
| edogaa | With some functionality cut off along the way. |
| tonda-1337 | of course... these things are possible, but not as comfortable as these old DEs were like. |
| KingSphinx | To me, my DE preference is, in order: TDE>GNOME2>GNOME Shell>KDE4>Unity |
| KingSphinx | And it's not even because it's oversimplified, I hate Unity because it's still a bug-ridden piece of junk. |
| edogaa | FOr me it's KDE3/TDE > KDE4 > XFCE4 = LXDE > GNOME > WM |
| KingSphinx | ...I completely forgot about Xfce and LXDE! |
| tonda-1337 | for me : TDE>Gnome2>KDE4>Unity>Gnome3 |
| edogaa | wait, UNity is actually considered an option? |
| edogaa | OH BURN D: |
| tonda-1337 | unity is better than gnome3 |
| tonda-1337 | imo |
| KingSphinx | Okay, KDE3/TDE>GNOME2>Xfce>LXDE>KDE4>GNOME3>Unity |
| KingSphinx | That should be a bit more complete. |
| edogaa | hmm, maybe you should put feces before unity? :D |
| edogaa | XD |
| tonda-1337 | KDE3>Gnome2>Unity>XFCE>GNOME3 |
| tonda-1337 | lool |
| Fleck | ;p |
| edogaa | KDE3/TDE > KDE4 > XFCE4=LXDE > GNOME2 = GNOME3(some things i can't stand though) > WM's |

| edogaa | As in, I was looking for fonts and saw trinity-fontstuffhere-morestuffhere-noarch... |
| edogaa | or something like that |
| edogaa | and that is the only thing i see. |
| KingSphinx | MutantTurkey: You don't use Ubuntu/Debian/Fedora, do you? |
| MutantTurkey | I use ubuntu for development on trinty |
| MutantTurkey | but I only used it because Archlinux didnt have Trinity packages |
| MutantTurkey | but now I am getting much progress on it |
| MutantTurkey | so maybe back to arch? |
| MutantTurkey | all I need is kdebase to build |

| Strangelv | I've got a friend who's trying to install or reinstall, and right bfore he stopped responding in ASI MOO he mentioned that he accidentalyl downloaded and installed the KDE 4 version of Meerkat |
| Strangelv | "Does deb http://mirror.its.uidaho.edu/pub/trinity/trinity/ubuntu/ maverick main still work? |
| KingSphinx | Dunno, haven't tried it. |
| Strangelv | "It's what I have in my sourlces.list file |
| * KingSphinx runs Oneiric, and is stuck on KDE 4 for the time being |
| Strangelv | I've taken teh opposite approach -- I've resorted to sticking to the Meerkat, despite picking it over stabel so that I could keep up with the update schedule. |
| Strangelv | As the saying goes, the best laid plans of mice and men are generalyl bout equal... |
| Strangelv | "I'm not sure what I'd run if i couldn't run TDE. It definietly wouldn't be KDE 4 |
| Strangelv | :: would not phisically get away with hurling his $2000+ 8 core workstation across his bedroom after he had too much from KDE 4 |
| Strangelv | "nevermind that it's unlikely I'm ever going to be able to splurge that much on a machien again |
| Strangelv | "I most definitely couldn't do that now |
| KingSphinx | I probably should've just installed Xubuntu instead of Kubuntu, but I wanted to try a KDE-only approach. Not exactly an excellent idea, to be honest. |
| Strangelv | "How much has improved since 4.1? |
| Strangelv | "The only bright spot that I can remember was Konqueror |
| KingSphinx | It's improved quite a lot stability and speed-wise, but it still has odd glitches and bugs. |
| Strangelv | "The rest of it was feeling like I was in a badly designed straight jacket |
| Strangelv | "What about in terms of flexibility and customization? |
| KingSphinx | for example, Plasma crashes and tries to restart upon shutdown a lot of the time. |
| Strangelv | "TDE is configured to run almost precisely the way I want it. Crashing at shutdomwn admittedly sounds less bad than crashing at other times |
| Strangelv | ::'s configuration starts with kicker on the left edge of his screen and 144 pixels thick. He gets more esoteric from there |
| Strangelv | "The lack of autominimize admittedly was a major contriburot to my wanting to hurl my machine across the room even faster than Windows Me had me wanting to do it. The militan,t patronizing diatribes of KDE 4 partisans did not help my peace of mind |
| Strangelv | "No one was militantly trynig to ram Windows Me down my throat whether I wanted it or not |
| Strangelv | :: had a much leass heavy and expensive machine then. That machine is still running Jaunty becaues newer versions can't work with his easily confused 17" display that will spend all of its time displaying a red box that reads OUT OF RANGE with nwer versions of, well, anything |
| KingSphinx | Ever try Debian for that machine? |
| Strangelv | No, I've been too spoiled by Ubuntu's regular updates |
| Strangelv | "When I last ran Debian I was basically forced to run unstable becouse everything I needed to get a recent version of was compalied against unstable |
| Strangelv | ...and after Sarge went gold, unstable became genuinely unstable |
| Strangelv | "My friends continue to taunt me about some of the problems I had with Debian half a dozen years later |

| Strangelv | "Lenny was the successor to Sarge, right? |
| KingSphinx | I... think so? |
| Strangelv | "That falls under another reason I've not returned to Debian |
| Strangelv | "Stable is great if you want to run a server |
| Strangelv | "What's the meta package to install 3.5.12? |
| Strangelv | "The update times between stable releases for a desktop or workstation are ludcrous |

| Fleck | any plans on makein trinbuntu? :D |
| Fleck | *making |
| feindbild | me? no, trinarch, as soon as I get my hands on the PKGBUILDs so I don't have to redo all the work |
| * Strangelv still visualises a tuba logo when he thinkis Tubuntu |
| Strangelv | "We probabyrl do need a separate name from Kubuntu. It confuses people |
| Fleck | tubuntu is nace name too :D |
| Fleck | omg |
| Fleck | *nice |
| feindbild | http://git.trinitydesktop.org/ <- wait, do you need an account just to clone? O_o Anyone got a public clone up? |
| Z_God | feindbild: you need the packaging scripts? |
| Z_God | the trinity code itself is still in KDE's subversion repository |
| feindbild | Z_God: yes :) |
| Z_God | ok, then I can't help you, I don't know anything about trinity git |
| Z_God | sorry |
| feindbild | Z_God: need the scripts, having access to the repo would be nice so I can send patches ;) |
| feindbild | ok, thanks :) |
| Z_God | the repo with the code is here: http://websvn.kde.org/branches/trinity/ |
| feindbild | Z_God: yes, found that :) But I don#t want to start from scratch with the build scripts :/ |
| Z_God | which distro are you using? |
| feindbild | Z_God: archlinux |
| Z_God | I think there is someone working on getting arch packages ready |

| KingSphinx | I know... by the way, I borked my Kubuntu install last night, and I reinstalled using Xubuntu. Very light, but Xubuntu has problems with stuff like USB headsets. |
| KingSphinx | More specifically, Xubuntu won't work with my USB headset's volume control properly. Oh, the applet will show the bar going up/down with my volume, but the actual volume level doesn't change. |
| KingSphinx | I suspect mixer conflicts because both ALSA and Pulse seem to have been installed. |

| Aquarius | hiya. |
| Aquarius | can anyone tell me how to upgrade to 3.5.13? |
| kleinie | which distro? |
| Edogaa | If on Fedora, lots and lots of patience |
| Edogaa | :( |
| Aquarius | Debian |
| kleinie | then no way |
| Aquarius | hm. Why is that? |
| kleinie | squeeze? |
| Aquarius | yep. |
| kleinie | broken depency |
| Aquarius | hm... |
| Aquarius | ok. |
| kleinie | http://trinity-devel.pearsoncomputing.net/?0::3292 |
| Aquarius | what if Ubuntu? |
| Edogaa | :( |
| kleinie | i didn't tried ubuntu, but i think binary packages are not working neither in ubuntu, neither in debian |
| Aquarius | i see... |
| Aquarius | too bad. |
| *** seeks has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Aquarius | anyways.. i'm happy with the current version still... but i have some settings issues... audio is still not resolved. |
| seeks | Hey guys, I have a question about installing this under Ubuntu 11.10... |
| Aquarius | requires some delicate configuration. |
| Aquarius | won't work. Try 11.04. |
| seeks | Hmm. |
| Aquarius | 11.10 is not yet supported by Trinity as far as i'm concerned. |
| seeks | Well, that's too bad I guess |
| seeks | Will just adding Natty's sources for apt work? |
| Aquarius | no idea. |
| seeks | Fair enough. |
| seeks | Alright, thanks. |
| *** seeks has quit IRC |
| *** Edogaa has quit IRC |
| kleinie | oneiric is supported in 3.5.13, isn't it? |
| Space_Man | you could add Oneric's source lines and then install the kubuntu-trinity desktop |
| Space_Man | there isn't a Ubuntu Trinity live CD |
| Space_Man | there is a 10.10 version, but no a 11.04 or 11.10 |
| Aquarius | hm.. |
| Space_Man | you can install 10.10 and then easily upgrade to 11.04 |
| Aquarius | has anyone succeeded in setting up PulseAudio in Debian? |
| Aquarius | i can tell you that in latest Ubuntu it's already set up quite accurately.. is there any way to do the same in Debian? |
| Space_Man | sorry, I have no idea how pulseaudio works |
| * Space_Man uses ubuntu |
| *** MadEchidna has joined #trinity-desktop |
| kleinie | Aquarius, why do you want to use pulse? |
| Aquarius | because only Alsa doesn't work. |
| MadEchidna | "Trinity Desktop Environment 3.5.13 is out! Get it at http://www.trinitydesktop.org" |
| MadEchidna | I'd love to, too bad the repos are STILL empty after a week! |
| MadEchidna | What's the deal with that? |
| MadEchidna | I saw the article on OS news and was like OMGINSTALL and I've been waiting since |
| Aquarius | i mean.. with multistream audio... with only ALSA i can't play many things at a time... i play flash and player and skype - something takes over and sound goes off... |
| Space_Man | download the source and compile it yourself :P |
| MadEchidna | nou >_> |
| MadEchidna | listing repos on the site after a public release that don't even work is a massive cock tease |
| Space_Man | have you read http://trinity-devel.pearsoncomputing.net/?0::3292 ? |
| Aquarius | the thing is... my hardware seems to be a bit incompatible with the software given.. so that's why it requires delicate settings... |
| MadEchidna | no, I haven't. That would probably be a good thing to post on the front page eh? |
| Space_Man | agreed |
| MadEchidna | This project has gotten exposure from OSNews and frankly yall have your pants down |
| MadEchidna | not to be mean I'm just sayin |
| Aquarius | right now everything is almost fine except for one weird thing: i can't host the calls in skype. And yes, it's audio probs too. When i add one more person to a call it gets fuzzy. When someone else adds someone to a call - it's alright. |
| Space_Man | but Tim is busy with real life etc |
| MadEchidna | oh well I'll just check back next week then |
| MadEchidna | thanks for the link |
| Aquarius | also Wine shuts the sound... but i close my eyes on that. |
| Space_Man | maybe tomorrow! |
| MadEchidna | I'm leaving town tomorrow so I won't get to check until I get back |
| MadEchidna | anway thanks |
| *** MadEchidna has quit IRC |
| kleinie | Aquarius, what type of sound codec have you? |
| Aquarius | no idea |
| Aquarius | dunno even what you mean by that |
| kleinie | cat /proc/asound/cards |
| Aquarius | hm.. ok |
| Aquarius | 0 [SB ]: HDA-Intel - HDA ATI SB |
| Aquarius | HDA ATI SB at 0xfe8f4000 irq 16 |
| Aquarius | 1 [HDMI ]: HDA-Intel - HDA ATI HDMI |
| Aquarius | HDA ATI HDMI at 0xfeae8000 irq 19 |
| kleinie | yepp hda-intel sucks, is it a laptop? |
| Aquarius | nope. |
| Aquarius | just desktop.. |
| Aquarius | strangely.. on Ubuntu there's no such thing.. i mean PulseAudio is optimized better there... |
| Aquarius | but i don't want this to make me go to Ubuntu... i wanna solve in Debian. |
| Aquarius | solve it* |
| Aquarius | cause i like it |
| kleinie | steal ubuntu pulseaudio config |
| kleinie | i don't use pulse, i don't know where are these files |

| Aquarius | hm... |
| Aquarius | then it's .... src something, i don't remember. |

| Aquarius | hm.. okl |
| kleinie | but look the bright side, you can use the HDMI output, lucky man.... for me it's not working with my nvidia card :( |
| Aquarius | hm.. what would i use it for? |

| kleinie | we are too |
| kleinie | Aquarius, what is in your asound.conf? |
| Aquarius | let me show... |
| Aquarius | by the way... apparently i have an old version of PulseAudio... it's like 0.9 something |
| Aquarius | not even 1.0 |
| kleinie | i think in ubuntu alsa is configured to use pulsaudio as default, if an application want to play sound, alsa "redirects" to pulseaudio |
| Aquarius | true |
| *** KingSphinx has joined #trinity-desktop |
| KingSphinx | There! That's the second time in a day I've had to install Ubuntu, but I finally got everything working. Seems Ubuntu ain't so friendly to removing desktops anymore... |
| Piki | "Do it our way or else!" |
| Aquarius | yeah, so you better get one at once... i mean if you want xfce then you should get Xubuntu instead of plain Ubuntu and setting up xfce afterwards. tried it already, failed.. |
| KingSphinx | But I did install Xubuntu. It kept giving me audio problems, so I tried installing the ubuntu-desktop package, then removing everything in xubuntu-desktop; and apparently, doing that now will cause your *buntu to fail to start. |
| KingSphinx | Hence why I just said "screw it" and installed regular Ubuntu via USB stick. |
| Aquarius | hm.. |
| Aquarius | regular Ubuntu has that Unity shit.... |
| Aquarius | in the latest version |
| kleinie | you can use the old gnome-panel + metacity desktop |
| Aquarius | hm... |
| Aquarius | didn't know. |
| Aquarius | anyways... i'm happy with TDE... it's just fine. But i gotta find a way to stabilize everything.. |
| kleinie | in oneiric login screen above your login name, you can choose different desktop sessions |
| Piki | use a distro that won't crash itself when you remove the desktop you don't want |
| Aquarius | ahh... really?.. didn't know you can choose gnome thing there.. |

| *** Z_God has quit IRC |
| KingSphinx | Harmonium: Yes, both should co-exist with few problems thanks to how Trinity installs (mostly into the /opt directory). I can't guarantee it'll be problem-free, but there shouldn't be anything major. |

| Space_Man | and so is Tim's reply http://trinity-users.pearsoncomputing.net/?0::1668 |
| Space_Man | David suggests using the nightly builds instead of the 3.5.13 repo's |
| Space_Man | change the deb line to "deb http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity-nightly-builds/debian/ etc" |
| KingSphinx | Would that work for Ubuntu or would I just substitute /debian/ with /ubuntu? |

| schreiberstein | yep. |
| Space_Man | otherwise patience |
| Space_Man | maybe tomorrow! |
| schreiberstein | but i don't need nightlys.. i want the stable version |
| schreiberstein | i hope so :-) |
| Space_Man | the last nightlie is the same as 3.5.13 |
| *** isai has joined #trinity-desktop |
| edogaa | :| |
| _Pete_ | as this seems to take, do you need compile help? I have "spare" i7 with 16G mem / raid ready to compile |
| schreiberstein | _Pete_: whom are you referring to? |
| _Pete_ | someone who's doing 3.5.13 release |
| schreiberstein | oh yeah.. of course.. stupid me. reallly need some sleep! :-D |
| schreiberstein | 2:15 am -.- |
| schreiberstein | good night... |
| *** schreiberstein has quit IRC |
| KingSphinx | If the final nightlies are bit-for-bit identical with the "final" 3.5.13, then why didn't we just use those packages for the regular repos instead of totally rebuilding binaries? Or are nightlies compiled from source or something? |
| edogaa | hmm, i wonder if it will be up tomorrow |
| edogaa | eh, i'll go to sleep and check tomorrow |
| jumpship | KingSphinx: I was just catching up on the mailing list, and Tim says the nightlies are bit-for-bit copy of 3.5.13, but reminds to change sources.list after upgrade. |
| KingSphinx | So use the nightly PPA to get it, then remove the PPA once Trinity's installed? |
| *** samelian has quit IRC |
| KingSphinx | ...what's the address for the nightly PPA for Ubuntu? I can't find it in the log |
| *** isai has quit IRC |
| KingSphinx | Okay, found the nightlies. Trinity still asks to remove sudo though? |
| Xu_R | replacing with sudo-trinity is harmless. |
| KingSphinx | Mhm, I know, just noted it is all. Had to look up how to enable root in Ubuntu since I haven't needed to do this is quite a while. ^^; |
| KingSphinx | *in |
| Xu_R | :P |
| KingSphinx | Another possibly-obvious question, but upon logging in as root, I'm still in my home directory. Would I need to cd to / before apt-getting Trinity or is it okay to do it from my current directory? |
| Xu_R | did you do "su - root"? |
| Xu_R | or even "sudo su - root" works |
| Xu_R | you don't need to change directory |
| KingSphinx | Got it. Installing Trinity now :D |
| KingSphinx | Worst that could possibly happen is needing to reinstall Ubuntu... not too bad when you keep /home on another partition. :P |

| lostson | hello all I am trying to install trinity on my debian squeeze and I added the repo's to my sources list but when i try to apt-get install kde-trinity its says this package isn't available but referred to by another package |
| lostson | yet the help page on the site tells me to apt-get install desktop-base-trinity kde-trinity |
| lostson | ideas ? |
| KingSphinx | Trinity's mirrors might still be building binaries for all of Trinity due to a few mishaps, so try waiting a bit, then trying again. Sorry if that's all the help I can give right now... |
| lostson | well so just kde-trinity isnt available right now if i install desktop-base-trinity will that get me most of it ? |
| lostson | or at least get me up and going ? |
| KingSphinx | It might, though I'm not sure. |
| *** KingSphinx has quit IRC |
| *** KingSphinx has joined #trinity-desktop |
| lostson | nope destkop=base-trinity pulls nothing with it |
| lostson | hmm perhaps i can drop to version 3.5.12 for now |
| lostson | nope cant do that either |
| KingSphinx | http://apt.pearsoncomputing.net/cdimages/index_desktop.html has 3.5.12 images, but they're based on Ubuntu 10.10 |
| lostson | yeah that is nice but no wanted to use trinity in my debian squeeze and when i read the realease notes yesterday was all excited to do it tonight but that doesnt look like it is gonna happen |
| *** KingSphinx has quit IRC |
| lostson | yeah most of the files are just missing cant get them |
| *** KingSphinx has joined #trinity-desktop |
| lostson | well from what i read on the mailing list due to an outage they mirrors may not be fully populated yet |
| KingSphinx | Yep, the only reason I'm even in Trinity right now is thanks to the nighly repositories. I'm really hoping when the mirrors come back up that TDE gets some sort of update, the nightly version is so buggy! |
| lostson | maybe i can find a mirror with 3.5.12 |
| lostson | there has to be some mirrors somewhere right |
| KingSphinx | I wouldn't know, but maybe replacing "trinity-v3.5.13" with "trinity-v3.5.12" might help? Just a guess... |
| lostson | tried that |
| lostson | it failed |
| lostson | bingo i found one for 3.5.12 and installing now |
| lostson | so 3.5.12 is installing now |

| *** Z_God has quit IRC |

| schreiberstein | i'll write it on mailing list.. |
| edogaa | :/ I've tried trinity on a virtual machine through Debian before, but I never used it on an actual system since i was never a fan of debian lol |
| edogaa | :| Now that it's finally available on fedora it is taking a hilariously long time XD |
| schreiberstein | yep. |
| schreiberstein | but why did they publish a guide which doesn't work? even some guys on german forum criticized it :-D |
| schreiberstein | i cleaned my harddrive and installed scientific linux on it... and i'm stuck because i have to wait for the trinity packages |
| edogaa | Stuck? o.O |
| edogaa | Why not just do the work you need with what you have available before KDE3 is back? |

| edogaa | ah |
| *** lasitsa has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Piki | schreiberstein, the instructions were published because the mirrors were already expected to have the files by now, like i said we can't control the mirrors. the mirrors are hosted by other places, all we can do is provide them with the files they are supposed to host, but it's up to them how they handle actually making the files available |
| Piki | of course, tim's ISP cut out the other day when the files were supposed to be going to the mirrors, so that delayed uploading the files, but tim did say they should be there by friday, so it's possible that the downage may have had an unexpected side effect |
| edogaa | Tims connection failing didn't help |
| edogaa | yeah |
| schreiberstein | well, couldn't you temporaily host the files on the main server? |
| Piki | yeah, if you don't mind painfully slow connections |
| edogaa | lol..damn you bandwidth!!!! |
| Piki | tim's connection is much slower than a mirror, so having him host it and everybody trying to go through that isn't really practical |
| schreiberstein | :-( |
| schreiberstein | which friday do you mean? yesterday or next friday? |

| Strangelv | Note for next time,-- haveit released before announcing it and changing all the directions... |
| schreiberstein | Strangelv: full ack! |
| Piki | ONE LAST TIME: the files were expected to have already been there, and probably would be if it weren't for tim's servers |
| schreiberstein | Piki: Then delete the guide from trinity'S site |
| Piki | schreiberstein, i can't |
| Strangelv | "That might be a better topic right now than saying that it's out. is Tim the only one with access to the topic? |
| Piki | i'm not a web master |
| Piki | just relaying info already given to me by tim, who expected the mirrors to have the files yesterday, and who is currently not here to see what the problem is |
| schreiberstein | nevermind... good bye! |
| Strangelv | "yeah, go |

| * Strangelv wonders what it is hes' supposed t have read aside from being able to better cope with the hopeless deluge in his email inbox. The TDE lists aren't teh onyl ones' he's incapa'ble of keeping up with anymore |
| Strangelv | "Hello |
| l0ner | hi guys! |
| edogaa | o_o |
| edogaa | poor Piki lol |
| rzs19 | has any one a nice name for my bar/docker? i'am so uninspired... |
| Strangelv | bar/docker? |
| * Strangelv used to name his MS Windows partitions after work project code names; does that count? |
| rzs19 | aehm... a superkaramba widget. |
| rzs19 | soemthing like kxdocker, but for superkaramba. |
| l0ner | what it does? |
| * Strangelv hastily loks up superkaramba |
| l0ner | superkaramba: nice but resource consuming applets for kde |
| l0ner | something like plasma now... |
| rzs19 | hmm it does...steals your creditcard and looks like a docker/bar |
| l0ner | lol |
| l0ner | karadock? |
| Strangelv | So it's an applet you're needinga name for... |
| l0ner | kara from karamba and dock for.... uh... dock |
| Strangelv | Could you descireb it? appearance? uses |
| *** l0ner is now known as l0ner_away |
| * l0ner_away is away: dinnertime! |
| * Strangelv will bb |
| Strangelv | BTW, work project code names at my small company are taken from names of rocket,s missiles, and aerospace items |
| rzs19 | well its a nice looking bar, which can have themes and plugins, like weather, launcher, or something like the dock in macos. its a bar whic hcan have plugins, so you can put in what you want... |
| rzs19 | and it makes evilthings with your creditcard-data :) |
| rzs19 | and yeah its in python so maybe it needs a little bit more ram than toher things... but not soo much...and...you don't need to care about it. it has a autodetecd methof, to check if yo have to less ram. if its too less, it will steal money form other users and pay you new ram, more ram - so you dont need to care abot too less ram in your system |
| * Strangelv is now officially confused |
| rzs19 | atm it needs 7 mb of ram... its just playing around with superkaramba and trying to makesomething use..fu..ful...less... |
| Strangelv | one of my biggest continuing nits with Kicker is that in terms of large icons like start, showing the dasktop, showing the trash can, there's only one dimension, and the thicker you make the bar the more room they eat up |
| Strangelv | "Wouldi t be possib0le to stuff them into a box with superkaramba so that they can be arranged in two dimensions and kept dow no a reasnable size iven if teh bar is >100px thick? |
| rzs19 | maybe we need to write an applete for kicker to do this? |
| Strangelv | "Iave always wished for alterantives to kicker altogether, although it's gotten better over the years |
| Strangelv | "I guess what I'm wendering is if a container culd be created that these things could be plaecd into. ...alternatively, add the ability to arrange them in moer than one dimension in Kicker itself |
| Strangelv | "There's also at least one alternative to kicker, but it's not a high priority and may not be in the current gorup of packages. I forlgoht who was working on it. It was created by SuSe |
| rzs19 | maybe we could make awish list for things todo? |
| rzs19 | maybe there is somewhere such a list, don't know... |
| rzs19 | buts sounds like a usefull idea :) |
| Strangelv | "I believ ethe SOP is to file a wish item with bugzilla, but I don't believ I've ever gottn around to it. Working on mascot/logo proposals is what I'm suppsed to be doing for TDE, but have been to busy with other things. ...then i decided to sign up for National Novel Writing Month because I wasn't overtaxing myself enough, obviously.

| *** Aquarius has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Aquarius | hello everyone |
| Strangelv | Hello |
| rzs19 | hell :D |
| rzs19 | hello* |
| Aquarius | question: why can i not install latest Trinity desktop? |
| Aquarius | sources are broken or what? |
| Xu_R | samelian: yea, but heading out soon |
| * Strangelv should have a copy and paste answer but doesn't. HE's also been awake too long to explain it well |
| samelian | Xu_R: i'm a bit outdated, how can I get patched qt3 source? |
| Strangelv | possibyl inaccurate short version: the announcement was premature |
| Xu_R | hehe, so am I. it should be on the mirrors |
| Aquarius | is that about KDE 3.5.13? |
| Xu_R | samelian: mirrors.its.uidaho.edu |
| samelian | thx |
| Aquarius | Jesus people.. i dunno who's talking to whom. Why don't you grant me such dignity and tell me what the hell is wrong? |
| Strangelv | Are you just trying to get up and running with TDE, or are you tyring to upgraed a 3.5.12 installation? |
| Aquarius | yep, i've reinstalled everything.... had to move to another hdd |
| Aquarius | so now i'm on gnome only. |
| Strangelv | Which distro, not that I can help with many |
| Aquarius | so no upgrade, just clean installation. |
| Aquarius | Debian 6 |
| Aquarius | it says it cannot read the sources... |
| Strangelv | If you can find the directions for 3.5.12, try those. Unfortunately, they're no longer up and I don't know wheer to find them |
| Aquarius | damn... you mean to tell me that i can' t install KDE 3.5.13 and instead i'd rather get 3.5.12 and yet they're hard to be found?! |
| *** l0ner is now known as l0ner_away |
| * l0ner_away is away: Gone away for now |
| Aquarius | just why did i delete it.... |
| Aquarius | anyways.... shall i wait till you guys are done with 3.5.13/ |
| Aquarius | ? |
| Aquarius | i can use gnome for a while.. |
| Strangelv | "That might be the easier solution. Things are in flux and the situation could be fixed any hour now |
| Aquarius | fine. I'll be using gnome for a while. |
| Aquarius | thanks for letting know |
| Strangelv | Sorry for teh inconvenience |
| rzs19 | why dont use 3.5.12 ? |
| *** Vandroy has quit IRC |
| rzs19 | and than upgrade to 3.5.13 ? |
| *** KingSphinx has joined #trinity-desktop |

| Strangelv | rzs19: what repository and pacage name? |
| *** KingSphinx has left #trinity-desktop |
| Strangelv | package name(s) |
| rzs19 | or is the 3.5.12 repo alos broken? |
| Strangelv | I don't believ it's broken, but there ore no longer directions for using it |
| rzs19 | uno momento... |
| Strangelv | "so if you don't remember where to look or what packages to use... |
| *** KingSphinx has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Aquarius | rzs19, besides, i've been looking forward to 3.5.13, they got (allegedly) that Konqueror/flash thing fixed |
| Aquarius | without it it's like tea without sugar |
| rzs19 | so you have installed 3.5.12 but your waiting for 3.5.13 ? |
| Aquarius | i did install 3.5.12, but i just re-installed everything due to some reasons and was hoping i'd just install latest thing at once... bummer. |
| Aquarius | so now i'm on gnome. |
| rzs19 | i don't like flash... |
| Aquarius | me neither, but you do like watching youtube videos, don't ya? |
| rzs19 | wait! |
| rzs19 | html5! |
| * Strangelv is still running Meerkat due to his failed attempt on another macrhien to upgrade and still have TDE |
| rzs19 | http://www.youtube.com/html5 |
| Aquarius | Strangelv, hey... i remember you.. you're that guy who doesn't sleep much |
| * Strangelv seldomly uses Konquerer for HTML, and it's almost always to view local HTML files |
| Strangelv | "Actually I sleep a lot, but my cercadian isn't 24 hour compliant. Right now is about bedtime |
| rzs19 | but i think the khtml in konqueror is atm to old |
| KingSphinx | I'm running 3.5.13 thanks to the idea of using the nightly repos to get it... it runs, but it's absolutely broken in some areas. |
| Strangelv | Yes. Webkit is the successor to KHTML |
| Aquarius | pha... |
| Aquarius | KingSphinx, what's the point then? :) |
| rzs19 | just use... iceweasel/firefox, or chrome, or soemthing else :D |
| Aquarius | i did. they act funny. |
| rzs19 | or port rekonq back to qt3 :P |
| Strangelv | That's a problem |
| KingSphinx | For example, if I hilight Settings or System in KMenu, the whole Kicker crashes. |
| * Strangelv is too asleep to troubleshoot |
| Aquarius | hey.. how about those deep buttons thing? :) |
| KingSphinx | All I can say is that I really hope the "real" 3.5.13 is less crash-prone than this |
| rzs19 | KingSphinx: don't make me fear from 3.5.13 :/ |
| Strangelv | rzs19 might try writing an app for that. 8) |
| Aquarius | guys.. just take your time... do it long enough but good. |
| KingSphinx | rzs19: I'm sure the final product will be better, it's kinda my fault for installing nightlies. |
| *** KingSphinx has quit IRC |
| *** KingSphinx has joined #trinity-desktop |
| KingSphinx | Until final binaries are pushed out, I guess I'll just stick with *gasp* Unity... |
| * Strangelv has been staying with Meerkat, even though he went with Meerkat instead of the LTS so that he could keep up and not fall behind like he did with Jaunty... |
| Aquarius | KingSphinx, nah.. anything by Unity |
| Aquarius | KingSphinx, xfce better |
| KingSphinx | I tried Xfce, and while it's certainly nice and light, its sound architecture leaves a lot to be desired. Sort of like Trinity in that regard, actually. :P |
| KingSphinx | Not to knock Trinity, of course, I'm just saying that it's a bit of a pain to configure it to use USB headphones. |
| Aquarius | listen.. sound prob is overall linux prob. It's never ok. |
| Aquarius | i've realized that already. |
| rzs19 | so, now i go shopping,cu later :D need to buy..food... |
| KingSphinx | Matter of fact, I have no idea how to get Trinity to fully work sound-wise through my USB headset. I can hear stuff, yes, but I'm unable to change the volume. |
| Aquarius | don't bother :) |
| Aquarius | Linux is for those people who are tired of comfort and want some headache. There you go ;) |
| Aquarius | i'm proud to be one of them. |
| Aquarius | if you want to get everything to work - just use Windows. Yeah, go and steal it, or buy it, whatever... but you'll have no probs dude. ;) |
| *** l0ner_away is now known as l0ner |
| * l0ner is back. |
| KingSphinx | Don't get me wrong, it's fun fixing stuff, but this sound thing's got me baffled. >_>; |
| Aquarius | here.... in this THING...... everything gets me baffled :) |
| Aquarius | but for some reason i keep using it the way i can... some weird kind of obsession. |
| KingSphinx | It's literally the one thing I can safely say KDE4 beats Trinity in, because I can easily configure 4 to use my headset as the default sound device. Trinity, not so much, though I think the way Trinity and KDE4 use PulseAudio is way, way different... |
| Aquarius | PulseAudio is one piece of crap in making. |
| Aquarius | it works EVERYWHERE differently |
| Aquarius | sometimes less or more good... |
| l0ner | well nor trinity nor kde4 use pulse as it should be used |
| Aquarius | how do you know how it should be used? :) |
| l0ner | well... pulse is a audiomixer |
| Aquarius | has it ever worked they way intended ANYWHERE at all? :) |
| Aquarius | the* |
| l0ner | kde4 needs its own audiomixer |
| l0ner | trinity has it's own audiomixer |
| l0ner | yes |
| l0ner | i warked for me on ubunut |
| l0ner | when i was still using ubuntu |
| l0ner | i just needed to remove alsamixer to prevent it form stealing access to alsa from pulse |
| l0ner | in pracitce it should be or pluse or alsamixer or any other sound mixer you want |
| Aquarius | well, Ubuntu is the only linux based OS for today that represents something. And even Ubuntu is pretty much experimental. |
| l0ner | yes... |
| Aquarius | i do really really regret that i deleted Trinity 3.5.12.. damn... |
| Aquarius | if only i knew... |
| Aquarius | this gnome crap is killing me... |
| l0ner | and it's sad, since at times of 7.10, 8.04 ubuntu was pretty stable |
| l0ner | right now with it's ambition to become osx-like it's crap |
| Aquarius | it was stable for the hardware of its own time. |
| Aquarius | but they don't stand still, they keep moving.. that's the prob... |
| l0ner | yes |
| Aquarius | so ubuntu makers always have to keep up-to-date |
| l0ner | it wouldnt be a problem if they didn't want to become something they can't be |
| l0ner | I installed ubuntu something like 4 months ago |
| Aquarius | and yet Debian is more humble... it has old kernel, though drivers are being updated but just about as much to get your system to work, to install it somehow and make it work. Also SOMEHOW. |
| KingSphinx | My first Ubuntu was 9.04, so I'm sort of used to it acting like crap sometimes. |
| edogaa | my first ubuntu was 11.10 |
| l0ner | i couldnt stand how user un-friendly it was... i couldn't do anything I wanted to do |
| Aquarius | i dunno, Debian is crap on one hand. but for some reason i do love it. |
| edogaa | >_> my first linux was pclinuxos, debian 5 and archlinux. |
| l0ner | my first ubuntu was 6.04 |
| edogaa | the first 2 through a livecd |
| l0ner | and my first linux was slack 10.1 |
| KingSphinx | My Debian 5.0.9 live CD doesn't work with my LCD monitor. |
| edogaa | hmm what year? |
| Aquarius | my first linux was Mandrake |
| Aquarius | and Linux XP... both tryouts |
| edogaa | I'll assume old, so l0ner OLD TIMER D: |
| l0ner | yep... somehow :P |
| edogaa | Lol, LInux XP... XD |
| Aquarius | yeah.. i didn't even install it actually.. i just tried ;) |
| l0ner | i remember having 6 cd's with apps sources and compiling them manually on slack |
| edogaa | God, Linux XP looks terrible, not because it looks like windows xp either |
| Aquarius | by the way, Mandriva still lives, but nobody's using it... at least i dunno any people that have it. |
| l0ner | the biggest problem with all linuxes is that they want to reassemble something that they are not. |
| edogaa | Mmmm |
| l0ner | like ubuntu gives me the feeling that it wants to become osx |
| Aquarius | the biggest problem is that they're all experimental... |
| l0ner | yes |
| edogaa | I thought the same with unity :/ |
| edogaa | There needs to be a point were they are 'stable' more or less lol |
| Aquarius | yeah. More or less. |
| l0ner | when i saw unity control panel i was like wtf? is this unity os is to osx |
| l0ner | i like how things work for debian |
| edogaa | Eh, I tried unity it has some good things |
| edogaa | but it's pretty shitty mostly :/ |
| edogaa | for me anyways, |
| l0ner | there is stable wersion and experimental one |
| l0ner | i just couldn't use unity... or ubuntu at all. on every step it tried to undo my customizations to system |
| Aquarius | Debian is crap, but pretty much stable as it is. |
| Aquarius | that's why i love it and using it right now) |
| Aquarius | it just lacks some things that you must take care of yourself. that makes it a big f...ng pain in the ass. |
| edogaa | I'm just using fedora because i don't like debian :/ |
| l0ner | i like the verbose boot, so i tried to uninstall tu usplash, and what ubuntu says to me: "no you can't uninstall it" |
| Aquarius | edogaa, some people have troubles dealing with Debian, but it's not that bad. You just don't have to ask too much from it :) |
| l0ner | I use arch because I like to configure my system to act how I want it to act |
| edogaa | i like having new software :| |
| l0ner | till now i was using gentoo... but lately gentoo becomes more and more strange |
| edogaa | :/ Eh, l0ner that and having bleeding edge software I liked but then I noticed the final result was what most linux distros do in the end anyways :/ |
| l0ner | i don't really need bleeding edge, I want from apps I use to be useful and stable |
| Aquarius | anyone heard anything from Knoppix lately? |
| l0ner | and allow me to be productive |
| edogaa | arch is more bleeding edge than fedora lol o.O |
| Aquarius | it's not arch.. it's arse |
| l0ner | didn't know |
| Aquarius | ArseLinux |
| edogaa | At least that's what I Noticed with KDE, and what I liked about arch in 3-4 days the newest release of kde is usually available. |
| l0ner | well... i didn't really care for kde or gnome |
| KingSphinx | l0ner: Debian Stable? |
| l0ner | so I didn't notice |
| edogaa | o_O Not sure about all the other software. Hell, Arch even defaults to Python3 over python2. lol |
| l0ner | KingSphinx: tried... but it just didn't fit me |
| edogaa | So it's more like latest 'stable' software. |
| l0ner | dunno why |
| Aquarius | i tried installing ArseLinux once |
| Aquarius | ended up with a headache. |
| Aquarius | and pain in the arse too |
| edogaa | eh, installation is easy. |
| edogaa | Except when you get a problem |
| edogaa | in which case you get an anneyriusm. |
| Aquarius | not really. Also, having CRT monitor it gives you hard times looking in monitor... |
| Aquarius | every damn linux usually adjusts it to to maximum orgasmic resolution possible |
| Aquarius | if monitor is unknown or no video drivers |
| Aquarius | and no, i couldn't change it while not being in any desktop environment |
| l0ner | vga= parameter to boot sequence? |
| Aquarius | dunno. |

| KingSphinx | Still waiting for the mirrors >_>; nightlies aren't such a great idea when you want a usable system... |
| Firefishe | I'm running ubuntu oneiric 11.10. I've added all the trinity repositories, updated, but can't find the kubuntu-default-settings-trinity or kubuntu-desktop-trinity packages (or meta, whatever they are). I have some trinity packages in synaptic, but not everything seems there. |
| Firefishe | KingSphinx: Are you saying that the mirrors aren't complete yet for oneiric? |
| KingSphinx | The Trinity mirrors have had difficulty building binaries because of several mishaps, they should be built within the next few days. |
| Aquarius | you still talking about that?? Good gracious :) |
| KingSphinx | At least I got sound coming through my USB headset :P now if I can get the volume on it to work, everything would be hunky-dory. |
| Firefishe | I'm just following the instructions on the page for oneiric. |
| Firefishe | I've added the repositories, updated, etc. |
| Firefishe | KingSphinx: So a few more days, eh? |
| KingSphinx | Firefishe: Unfortunately, yes. The last-minute addition of RHEL/Fedora repos isn't helping matters. |
| KingSphinx | Also, I can't be the only one for whom Kopete isn't working properly. |
| Firefishe | KingSphinx: I see |
| Firefishe | KingSphinx: Well, I'll just keep my eyes peeled and do my updates. I'm sure your crew will get it together. |
| Firefishe | I appreciate the efforts to bring kde 3 back to the masses :) |
| KingSphinx | Only reason I'm running Trinity is because the nighly repositories offer a version close to the final product. Wouldn't recommend it though if you want a stable system. And BTW, I'm not technically part of this project, though I do try to help where I can. |
| Firefishe | KingSphinx: We all help out where we can. I appreciate the information. I'll just wait a month, then the problems should be ironed out. |
| Firefishe | Are the nightly builds via svn or git? |
| Aquarius | my sound works now perfectly |
| Aquarius | with only Alsa |
| KingSphinx | Binaries, I think. http://www.trinitydesktop.org/wiki/bin/view/Developers/NightlyBuilds |
| Aquarius | and what i did.. i just reinstalled Debian.. maybe i went through settings differently this time, i dunno.. but it's just fine. |
| KingSphinx | I'm thinking of trying Debian, but it looks like it'd be a bit more of a pain to get wireless set up, especially since I don't have an ethernet connection here. |
| Aquarius | Debian is good when you're good to it :) |
| Aquarius | but it's not intended to satisfy the needs of a generic consumer |
| KingSphinx | If I had a working ethernet connection where I am, I'd install Debian in a heartbeat. |

| edogaa | but in all seriousness, I don't know and it doesn't look like many people here do either. :/ There was an issue on the 2nd were Tims connection got screwed up so not many of the mirrors got everything they needed. |
| rzs19 | i would be happy if the deb packages would be aviable :) |
| edogaa | It was expected to be up at least AT SOONEST around friday...but it looks like it's going to take longer :/ |
| edogaa | also, thanks to slashdot the main website went down around the same day temporarily XD |

| Space_Man | maybe fork trinity! |
| edogaa | so fork a fork :| hurrah |
| rzs19 | maybe we should fork the word fork to make a double fork and we would be demons.. that would be evil... |
| rzs19 | why we should fork trinity? The work has just began.. they need some time to get a working team. |

| coreyfro | Hey all, followed instructions from http://www.trinitydesktop.org/installation.php but kubuntu-default-settings-trinity kubuntu-desktop-trinity aren't found. Can't find them when I snoop around either. Is this build available? |
| coreyfro | I have kubuntu 11.10 amd64, fresh |
| rzs19 | it seems that the mirrors are not ready atm? just wait... |
| coreyfro | Is there a particular mirror that I could specify? I jumped to 11.10 the second I read trinity was out for it and thus, squished my perfectly functional 3.5.12 install |
| edogaa | lol |
| coreyfro | 4.7 is killing me...it just...ugh...fails... |
| edogaa | You can try and play around in 4.7 and see the good things about it, then burn it with fire and jump to kde3 |
| Aquarius | coreyfro, same happened here. |

| coreyfro | Trinity, much love. You do the OSS community much by saying, "You know, fork this!" |
| Space_Man | sadly the mirrors are lagging |
| Space_Man | if you really need 3.5.13 you could try the recent nighly upload |
| Space_Man | it is the same as 3.5.13 |
| coreyfro | Are they binaries or sources? |
| Space_Man | binaries |
| edogaa | O_O |
| edogaa | WHERE CAN I GET THESE D: |
| Space_Man | I tried using them earlier but something went wrong |
| edogaa | are they rpm format D: |

| Z_God | I turned on this button thing for kicker for a few days now |
| Z_God | but I'm not sure yet if I like it ;) |
| Aquarius | ah... |
| Aquarius | really?.. could you make a screenshot of that? |
| Z_God | I did & put it here at some point |
| KingSphinx | Kicker crashes if I highlight Setting or System in KMenu for some odd reason. |

| Aquarius | erm... |
| Aquarius | what exactly did you do there? |
| Aquarius | you made the buttons visible? :) |
| Z_God | I turned on the option we talked about |
| Aquarius | well... actually i could do that too, and i've been using it only this way. |
| Aquarius | BUT... |
| Aquarius | the point was not the button shape as such.... but the pushing thing... it's not really pushed, it's just darkened a bit... |
| KingSphinx | http://pastebin.com/fB2Gtd9L Would this be of any help? I got this by invoking Kicker through Konsole, then reproducing the crash. |
| Aquarius | and not enough darkened even. |
| Aquarius | and hey.. i'm out of KDE now... |

| KingSphinx | Wait, how? 3.5.12 or 3.5.13? |
| gryc | Whatever's nightly, probably 3.5.12 |
| KingSphinx | That's 3.5.13, I'm still waiting for the official binaries to come out because Nightly's too unstable for me. |
| gryc | me too, but I upgraded to the latest ubuntu yesterday and they made gnome unusable, so I'm willing to put up with some unstability :p |
| KingSphinx | Does Kicker crash a lot for you? Mine did whenever I highlighted Settings or System in KMenu. |
| gryc | haha yep |
| KingSphinx | Same bug for you? |
| gryc | totally |
| gryc | I'm betting a corrupt .desktop file somewhere maybe |
| KingSphinx | Right down to highlighting those items in KMenu? Wow... |
| gryc | yeah, one kills it but it restarts automatically, the other kills it completely |
| gryc | looks like a corrupt image for System |
| gryc | (or a bug in art_render_gradient.c) |
| KingSphinx | You invoking it from Konsole? |
| gryc | yep |
| gryc | KDE was always good about being pretty helpful when it crashed |
| KingSphinx | Haha, you're doing the same thing I did to get some semblance of a bugtrace. |
| gryc | hm |
| gryc | there might be something wrong with the svg its trying to render...if this wasn't before they moved to svgs |
| gryc | like the gradients are malformed |
| gryc | hence it complaining about an assertion failling, like a stop is too small or too big |
| KingSphinx | For some reason I wouldn't think Debian would be affected by this, because if I recall, KMenu in Debian didn't have icons for some reason. |
| KingSphinx | (I also liked the layout in Debian's KMenu more, but that's another story) |

| KingSphinx | What, the fix? |
| gryc | Yes |
| gryc | There's a patch attached to that bug, so chances are good it'll get fixed :P |
| * Strangelv thinks, 3.5.13.1? |
| Strangelv | "Then again, the two toughes problems have both been cracked |

| KingSphinx | Ah |
| Strangelv | "Automake si the #1 reason there weren't any packafes for Natty |
| Strangelv | ...basically teh only reason |
| Strangelv | Automake's developers like to break everything during incrimental releases it seems |
| KingSphinx | Hence why TDE was ported to CMake? |
| * Strangelv nods |
| gryc | KingSphinx: luckily, that bug is in a little library, so theoretically you could just install the package for that from nightly when it gets merged in and stuff will quit crashing |
| Strangelv | "Soundhs like something to be quietly fixed in hteh bockground |
| gryc | Yep |
| gryc | if I were the overlord, I would say it was a bugfix and that it can go into the release :p |

| rzs19 | pulseaudio - damn i always write it wrong... |
| rzs19 | oh, nice :) |
| sheldonl | there are plugins for konqy, kmail, kmixer, and a couple other things I forget now. |
| sheldonl | all uses dcop. I don't want to port to dbus :( |
| *** Fat-Zer has joined #trinity-desktop |
| rzs19 | if we got soemthing working, than we need to create something new, so that we got not bored... like devfs, hal, udev, wahtevercomesafterallthat :P |
| sheldonl | I think dcop is much better, easy to use and understand. |
| sheldonl | and debug. |
| sheldonl | you can check it out at lineak.sourceforge.net |
| sheldonl | but project is inactive for a long time now. |
| sheldonl | mainly b/c I don't want to port to kde4. |
| Fat-Zer | talking about dbus vs dcop? |
| rzs19 | nice :) |
| sheldonl | and gnome/kde used all the keycodes I collected for most of the keyboards and they built it in, so my program is not as much a requirements. Also X now used kernel event infrastructure so on usb you don't need as much. |
| sheldonl | thx |
| sheldonl | yes. my opinion is dcop rules ;) |
| Z_God | sheldonl: you don't mind debugging dcop?? |
| sheldonl | and dbus drools ;_ |
| rzs19 | atm i'am plaing arroudn with superkaramba to write a nice dock, after that i will play around with kio, maybe i can integrate bluez. |
| Z_God | it wasn't my favourite part in reviving the xparts & kmozilla stuff |
| sheldonl | not really. the command line tools make it pretty straight forward to discover the calls and parameters. |
| sheldonl | I never did figure out dbus. |
| sheldonl | lol |
| sheldonl | superkaramba was awesome back in the day |
| sheldonl | what do ou guys think about using GIO instead of kio-slaves? |
| sheldonl | the one thing that I think gnome does better is their vfs. especially when trying to stream movies over a cifs share on a lan. |
| Fat-Zer | or it can at least edit files via net.. |
| sheldonl | true |
| sheldonl | that is pretty sweet, but it does it by copying files locally and then resyncing no? |
| Fat-Zer | no |
| Fat-Zer | it mounts fs via fuse |
| sheldonl | are you talking about kio or gvfs? |
| Fat-Zer | gvfs |
| Fat-Zer | AFAIK to .gvfs directory |
| sheldonl | right. yes, gvfs does that and kio copies locally. |
| Z_God | sheldonl: ok, I had to debug the actually dcop communication itself because the dcop c client was broken .. |
| sheldonl | I think we should have a kio like interface onto a gvfs/gio backend. |
| Z_God | why not onto KDE4? |
| Fat-Zer | O_O |
| Z_God | or use whatever lib KDE4 uses? |
| sheldonl | z_god: ah, ok. But I seem to recall the dcop stuff was also pretty straight forward, lots of marshalling code, etc but not too hairy...? |
| Z_God | sheldonl: yep, there was a bug in the marshalling |
| rzs19 | damn, whats wrong with twinview and superkaramba, hmm ... |
| Fat-Zer | the idea is as crazy as rename all apps with "s/k/t/" |
| Z_God | I hope there are no bugs like that anymore now *knock* *knock* |
| sheldonl | I think KDE4 still has kio slaves not too much different from KDE3... but I haven't looked at the code. |
| sheldonl | lol. yes |
| sheldonl | someone actually ported gvfs to kde, but kde dev's ignored him. |
| rzs19 | man that renaming is...a little bit... strange, kwin-trinity != kwin-kde4 ... |
| sheldonl | z_god: fixing the marshalling would be PITA. No wonder you didn't like it ;) |
| Fat-Zer | IMHO to get functionality of gnom we have to drop kio and use gvfs or nearly completely rewrite it... |
| sheldonl | I imagine that dbus is basically the same though, you'd have to marshall at some point wouldn't you? |
| Z_God | I guess yes |
| sheldonl | well it would be good if you could do gvfs in the background and interface to it like you do with KIO; but I don't have any idea of how that would work. |
| rzs19 | why use bottombar, both of my montiros? strange *reading the docu* |
| sheldonl | maybe you could even wrap the api... |
| Z_God | the bug was in the marshalling of integers, the problem with this code was also that it wasn't used much |
| sheldonl | gotcha |
| sheldonl | anyways... I think that is the one largest failing of KDE infrastructure right now. |
| sheldonl | but after gnome3 and unity I think KDE is our only hope... |

| tbottu | 04Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=580 enhancement, P5, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, Use xz for packages |
| sheldonl | MATE? |
| rzs19 | MATE == gnome 2 fork |
| Fat-Zer | gnome2 fork |
| sheldonl | LOL. Already? Awesome. Gnome2 isn't that bad, they should have evolved it instead of rewriting the whole shell. |
| Fat-Zer | xfce also is quite good... |
| Fat-Zer | but i'm not a gtk fan at all... |
| sheldonl | haven't used xfce for a number of years, but it's not really a full desktop is it? |
| sheldonl | I'm not a gtk fan either. |
| rzs19 | but i don't know if he will make improvments, or just fixing problems. |
| sheldonl | i don't know why he doesn't just write a gnome2 shell on top of gnome3 infrastructure.... |
| rzs19 | i don't like the gtk/gnome dialogs, like printing, or file. but thats taste |
| sheldonl | if canonical can write a shell certainly someone else can too. |
| Fat-Zer | it's looks full but uses some parts of gnome like nm-applet and gvfs... |
| sheldonl | I'll have another look, but what I really want is a shiny new KDE 3.5.13 ;) |
| Fat-Zer | why we are not writing a kicker+kdesktop infrastracture on top of kde4? |
| sheldonl | good question ;) |
| sheldonl | get rid of plasma..... |
| rzs19 | kicker an kdestops was ported to qt4 in some alpha version of kde4 |
| Fat-Zer | mm... |
| rzs19 | but there is so much more like nepomuk and strigi. |
| sheldonl | I think the 'make your whole desktop = superkaramba' was not too smart. |
| rzs19 | superkaramba is nice for some parts, but not for a whole desktop |
| sheldonl | anyone remember the card based KDE desktop proposal some guy did? I thought that was great. |
| Fat-Zer | AFAIK kde is reengeniaring it infrostructure now isn't it? |
| sheldonl | yes, for kde5 |
| rzs19 | i would like to see more use of kparts in konqueror |
| sheldonl | i hear you. |
| rzs19 | and i dont like dolphin. konqueror can much more. |
| rzs19 | dolphin could just do one split, but i need much more splits |
| rzs19 | i miss splitting in konsole :) |
| Fat-Zer | =)) |
| Fat-Zer | if I'll have time i want to finish the keramic theame for kde4... |
| Fat-Zer | i realy miss it |
| Fat-Zer | and also there is no damn panel-hide-button in plasma |
| Fat-Zer | i miss it too... |
| Strangelv | "Splitting in Konqueror or Konsole? |
| rzs19 | Splitting in konquerorworks perfectly, but not in konsole, yakuake can it |
| Strangelv | "How do I invoke it, not that I'm suer I want to do it. I'm a very heavy tab user |
| rzs19 | am right klick i nthe field right of the green point, there stands soemthing like 8 Items - 5 Files (..) - 3 Folders. make a right klick and say split vertical, or split horizontal, us can split and split and salit |
| rzs19 | is alos use tabs, but splitting is nessacary for me |
| rzs19 | i often have some instance of kpdf as kpart |
| rzs19 | ist very usefull |
| rzs19 | and without it, i'am lost :) |
| * Strangelv uses Plastik decorations with Keramik style |
| Strangelv | I must admit that most of the time I only use Konqueror as a file manager -- and always in tree mode -- I can't remember if I filed a bug report for not being able to make tree mode the default with 3.5.12 |
| Strangelv | The unchangeable default of icon is almost completely useless to me |
| Fat-Zer | is there some sence in backporting okular? |
| Strangelv | "I've partially worked around this with my default startup session having Konquer started up already and set to tree mode |
| rzs19 | okular was damn slow... |
| rzs19 | eats up all my ram... |
| Strangelv | "There could be. I'm not familiar with Okular, at least not by name |
| * Strangelv wasn't using KDE 4.1 for very long before he was close to destroying his machine in rage |
| Strangelv | The rage largely being caused by the militant pro-KDE4 partisans and what I was seeing with the Kubuntu developers |
| Fat-Zer | okular is the most powerful ebook viewer |
| Fat-Zer | *on linux |
| Strangelv | I didn't have anyone militantly trying to cram Windows Me down my throat, which migcht be why it took longer for that to have me close to hurling my machine across the room in rage |
| Strangelv | So basicalyl you're wondering about a TQt/Qt3 variant? |
| Fat-Zer | yeap... |
| Fat-Zer | wait a second... |
| Strangelv | If Qt3 becomes more popular as a result of Tim's efforts, it might be useful to look into the barkport ability. If you're runinng a desktop or workstation, though, how much of a penalty is it to have Qt3 and Qt4 both running? |
| Fat-Zer | it's a qt-only app it, doesn't require kdelibs... |
| Fat-Zer | i think not really a lot... |
| Fat-Zer | anyway it's not a first-need-to-port |
| rzs19 | lol Strangelv :D |
| Strangelv | I depend very heavily on my desktop environment |
| Strangelv | When it sabotages me I can't get anything done |
| *** Fat-Zer has quit IRC |
| Strangelv | Being confined to bed most of the time, what I do on a computer is most of my life |
| Strangelv | KDE 3 / TDE's customizability is very valuble and important to me |
| *** sheldonl has quit IRC |
| Strangelv | KDE 4 was not very customizable at all when I tried it. I couldn't do too many things I needed it to do. No, I don't remember specifics. I'm probably better off not remembering very much |
| * Strangelv mostly remembers feeling trapped and suffocated |
| rzs19 | why confined to bed? |
| schreiberstein | a few months ago I asked this at a gnome-channel : "Why did the gnome-team quit developing gnome2?" - "because kde3 felt lonely" |
| Strangelv | rzs19: ME/CFS |
| Strangelv | When I'm up I'm generally in either my power chair or my scooter. As inconvzenient as that sounds, the brain fog is much, much worse |
| Strangelv | schreiberstein: 8\ |
| rzs19 | Strangelv: thats bad :( |
| Strangelv | see definition ME/CFS |
| Strangelv | Well, that's not enough to tell you. Ther's some pretty stupid definitions out there |
| Strangelv | Worse than the disease is how the CDC, King's College, et c. respond to it, and promoting treatments every bit as idiotic and suicidal as 'graduated sugarl therapy' would be for type I diabetics |
| Strangelv | The best definitions are the Canadiat Consensus and the International Consensus. Neither makes a guess as to cause. It's probably a retrovirus, a FUBAR immune system, or both |
| Strangelv | ...and completely off topic for this channel |
| Strangelv | One patient's blog refers to it as teh Kafka pandemic |
| Strangelv | sorry for the off-topic rant |

| rzs19 | which distribution do you use? |
| Strangelv | "I want nothing to do with Oracle, Adobe, to the extent that it's avoidable, Sony... Con Agra... Monsanto... more I'm forgetting |
| rzs19 | i think debian stable has libeoffice in his backports, or install it fro mtesting and use apt pinning, when you use debian |
| Strangelv | Microsoft isn't on my boycot list -- it's preventing me frlom using any of its products by other means. EULAs and lack of Linux support |
| Strangelv | When things settle down I hope to upgrlade from Meerkat, but will probably test with another machine |
| Strangelv | I depend too heavily on this one |
| MutantTurkey | I like sony for their physical products |
| MutantTurkey | microsoft is byfar the least evil lately |
| Strangelv | Microsoft is being far more stupid than evil |
| MutantTurkey | I see Ubuntu much more evil than microsoft |
| *** tonda-1337 has joined #trinity-desktop |
| MutantTurkey | as well as oracle |
| MutantTurkey | they have more of an ability to hurt / effect the linux desktop. |
| MutantTurkey | they could either improve it greatly or totally destroy it. |
| MutantTurkey | Microsoft has no bearing on linux. |
| Strangelv | Microsoft might get on my list in its capacity as a patent troll |
| MutantTurkey | as compared to Oracle or SCO? |
| gryc | ubuntu is heading toward destruction. we have no chance to survive, make your time, etc. |
| Strangelv | What's a drop-in exit ramp from Kubuntu? |

| MutantTurkey | Francois? |
| rzs19 | oha! it seems that the snyc is done :D |
| rzs19 | *upgrading to 3.5.13* |
| MutantTurkey | nice |
| MutantTurkey | I just uploaded my arch packages to the AUR as well |
| rzs19 | maybe i had should do a backup of my system... hmm... |
| MutantTurkey | rzs19: meh :P |
| MutantTurkey | actually you should |
| MutantTurkey | just in case :) |
| rzs19 | but i'am running out of space, my infrastrcuture is not done |
| rzs19 | need maybe brtfs for deduplication |
| rzs19 | there are much backupswith radundant data, which i need to clean with zfs, brtfs, or by hand |
| MutantTurkey | btrfs is not ready yet |
| MutantTurkey | imho |
| MutantTurkey | I am waitin for the btrfsck tool |
| samelian | MutantTurkey: from now, all development will be done on git? |
| rzs19 | i know, thats the problem with btrfs |
| rzs19 | zfs is due licensing not in the kernel, so i must use zfs with freebsd over qemu, or xen ... |
| MutantTurkey | yes |
| MutantTurkey | samelian: definitely yes |
| MutantTurkey | that was decided a long time ago |
| MutantTurkey | tim is now making the migration |
| samelian | ok |
| MutantTurkey | as I can see, good progress as well http://git.trinitydesktop.org/cgit/ |
| samelian | I think I should ask for commit rights |
| MutantTurkey | yes |
| MutantTurkey | more people will have commit rights now |
| samelian | very well |
| MutantTurkey | because we own it |
| MutantTurkey | before SVN was at kde.org, we no longer want to rely on them. |
| samelian | I hope the quality of code will remain very high :) |
| MutantTurkey | if not higher :P |
| MutantTurkey | but for things like packages, we have a git repository for the packagers |
| MutantTurkey | obviously many people need commit access to that. |
| tonda-1337 | MutantTurkey: Good work! I'll try out the arch-pkgbuilds later.. is there a package mirror, or do i have to compile them myself? |
| MutantTurkey | tonda-1337: you will have to compile them yourself for now |
| MutantTurkey | I /can/ upload them to my server |
| MutantTurkey | I have x86_64 only though |
| tonda-1337 | i use x86_64 only |
| MutantTurkey | I am in the process of gaining control of our previous mirror. |
| MutantTurkey | tonda-1337: great! |
| MutantTurkey | want me to upload the packages to my server? |
| tonda-1337 | would be cool. i'll install arch again and try it out |
| MutantTurkey | its /very/ beta |
| MutantTurkey | I havent done any testing on it |
| MutantTurkey | other than me running it OK |
| MutantTurkey | I am going to test in a vm ok? |
| MutantTurkey | then i'll upload :0 |
| MutantTurkey | :) |
| MutantTurkey | already realized some problems :P |
| tonda-1337 | yeah... no need to hurry up |
| MutantTurkey | well I need to write a rc.d script for it. |

| rzs19 | one dockstar(my little can anything armserver), 2 workstations, one gaming pc, one old backupsystem, and old g3 mac and 2 kvm switches. |
| tonda-1337 | i often create just one partition for linux (on my gpt/guid-drive for my hackintosh) and then install arch on it. |
| tonda-1337 | partition is big enough for everything... no need for a swap partition... 16GB RAM :-p |
| rzs19 | oh and 2 amd geode, one thin and one to watch dvd, tv in the bedroom :D |

| aquarius | i've been having this nasty audio problem ever since i got onto Debian...... |
| aquarius | streams are taking over each other! |
| aquarius | usually in cooperation with special kinda programs like Skype... |
| aquarius | actually i did manage to make it work relatively fine altogether... but i then fucked it up a bit and had to re-install Debian again.. and so i did, and now it's back again.. and i dunno how to bring the last lucky setting back.. i really don't understand how it works... |
| aquarius | i wish i could get rid of it... |
| schreiberstein | i don't have a idea. i had problems with alsa on debian too... sound was nasty on the newest debian sid kernel. then i switched back to arch and these problems disappeared. sorry for being unhelpful :-( |
| aquarius | example: when i play something in a player and start up skype it jams the sound in both programs.. |
| aquarius | it's ok... |
| aquarius | it's THE ONLY prob i have... well, except for font rendering thing, but it's on every linux based OS, so i don't count that... |

| KingSphinx | If only Exe's installer weren't so confusing to me, I might have it installed by now. |
| KingSphinx | Also, I have absolutely no idea why GTK applications are not following my KDE settings. Possible bug? |
| gryc | KingSphinx: that kmenu bug is dependant on which version of libart is installed and/or linked against. Exe Linux may have a different (older?) version. |
| gryc | Also some gtk apps are crashing for me, but it may be my wonky install to blame for that. |

| * Strangelv discovers that the source-related files for Meerkat contain things important for mocre than just installing from source |
| Strangelv | "It sems to be working for me now |
| KingSphinx | You installed Trinity Meerkat, then upgraded up to Oneiric? |
| Strangelv | "That's the plan, although I believ i need to upgrade to Natty in between |
| * Strangelv needs t get it to do this witnhout updating Icecat yet. He doesn't want to restart icecat |
| KingSphinx | I hoped that was implied from what I said earlier... |
| Strangelv | I probably missed it |
| Strangelv | Actually I need to get up and do something before trying this |
| Strangelv | "Plus make a phone call. Have someone who may be stopping by to pick up some political signs to get up before voting on Tuesday |
| Strangelv | "Has anyone tested doing the upgrlade with dist-upgrade? |
| * Strangelv may need to break down and restart icecad so he can do it that way exactly |
| Strangelv | bbiab |
| KingSphinx | So in order to have a fully-working Trinity, I'd need to install using a 10.10 live CD, then upgrade all the way to 11.10, then install 3.5.13? |
| Strangelv | If you're doing a celan install you can skip those steps, but I don't know exactly what packages to install after installation |
| Strangelv | "or even a reinstall |
| * Strangelv is wanting to avoid a reinstall |
| Strangelv | "You could grab Ubuntu Server or something, then edit sources.lis,t then install the needed packages |
| KingSphinx | Reinstalls aren't that bad for me since I keep a separate / and /home, but it still sounds a bit tedious. Plus, I need a desktop because my wireless won't work out-of-box with Ubuntu, I have to set up firmware. |
| * Strangelv is hoping to just run apt-get dist-upgrade a few times |
| Strangelv | My main complication is keeping track of all the things I'd need to reinstall |
| Strangelv | "I also learned long ago to give / its own partition. Usually a relatively small one |
| Strangelv | I kind of splurged and made it around 64 GB this time. Less than half is in use |
| KingSphinx | Same for me, though I'm also concerned about whether Trinity would stay installed between installations. |
| KingSphinx | I gave 12 GB to / |
| KingSphinx | only about half is ever used. |
| Strangelv | "I've had less, but usually ran into trouble eventually |
| Strangelv | df says my root is using 19 GB |
| Strangelv | so quite a bit less than half |
| Strangelv | 32 GB probably would have been sufficient; 24 wuld have been cutting it close; 20 or less and I'd be in trouble |
| Strangelv | anything before I disappear? |
| KingSphinx | Nothing that I can think of other than wondering at which point in the upgrade process to switch over to 3.5.13 sources. |
| Strangelv | "I would say immediately |
| Strangelv | "My step one is to upgrade to 3.5.13 for Meerkat |

| Strangelv | back |
| gryc | KingSphinx: I upgraded from maverick to natty to oneric yesterday and then installed trinity. If you're worried, uninstall all the trinity packages before upgrading? |
| gryc | And your windowmanager should stay in memory while doing your upgrade. it's only copying new files over after all |
| KingSphinx | Then that would sort of defeat the purpose of (hopefully) getting 3.5.13 to fully work. Strangelv thinks that by installing 3.5.12, then upgrading to .13, it might fix a few issues currently present in .13 |
| KingSphinx | Matter of fact, I could do the upgrade from .12 to .13 before ever upgrading from Maverick... |
| gryc | Yeah, you could |
| gryc | and by staying in memory, I mean when you log out and back in it will re-load all your new trinity binaries and such |
| Strangelv | "I don't see valiue in installing 3.5.12 if .13 is available at all meaningful entry points |
| Strangelv | unless it's already installed |
| KingSphinx | I was hoping that, by installing 3.5.12 first, then upgrading to 3.5.13, I might be able to do away with the issues present in 3.5.13... |
| KingSphinx | Or would that not work? |
| gryc | What would be the difference between upgrading and just installing .13? |
| KingSphinx | Hopefully it would preserve my settings? For one, GTK apps aren't working properly with Trinity right now, the Keramik style is missing its window border, you know about the Kicker crash related to KMenu... |
| gryc | are your settings not stored in ~/.trinity/? |
| KingSphinx | They were, but like a dummy, I deleted my .trinity thinking it would fix the Kicker glitch. Ever since starting fresh, it's been practically nothing but trouble for me. |
| gryc | I know how you feel, it took me forever to turn off the interminable bleeps and bloops when I did anything |
| KingSphinx | The window noises? |
| gryc | The everything noises :P |
| gryc | open, close, maximize, minimize, shading, all that crap |
| KingSphinx | I sorta like them (I find them part of the charm of KDE3), but I can see why they'd get annoying |
| gryc | well I do a lot of stuff with my windows and it got annoying quick |
| jumpship | KingSphinx: Didn't you run kicker in a terminal and get messages related to art_render_gradient.c when it crashed? |
| KingSphinx | But what my thinking is, is that by installing 3.5.12, then upgrading to .13 instead of installing fresh, is that my settings and whatever will carry over. And yes, jumpship, I did. |
| jumpship | bug 554 |
| tbottu | 04Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=554 normal, P5, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, art_render_gradient.c makes kicker and konqueror crash |
| KingSphinx | Aw, it won't be patched for quite a while? |
| jumpship | I don't really know, just something about that made me remember your issue |
| * Strangelv /looks for where to disable the gradient before running apt-get |
| Strangelv | "...or maybe I should postpone doig something that might eat up more time than expected until after Tuesday... |
| gryc | The solution is to compile your own version of that library with the patch in that bug applied. |
| KingSphinx | So would upgrading from 3.5.12 have the same effect as just installing fresh or would stuff like GTK work better? I sort of suspect GTK having issues in 11.10 because I probably don't have a lot of GTK2 stuff installed |
| jumpship | I wonder if the GTK thing isn't because of the gtk-qt thing, are you using the pkg that renders gtk prog with qt? |
| *** Z_God has joined #trinity-desktop |
| jumpship | gtk-qt-engine is what it's called |
| KingSphinx | It's installed and I have GTK apps set to use my KDE style, that's precisely why I say there's a problem because, well, they *don't* folloy Qt style. |
| KingSphinx | *follow |
| jumpship | gtk3 apps? |
| KingSphinx | GTK2 and stuff like Firefox; GTK3 apps flat-out refuse to work in TDE now. |
| jumpship | yep, bug 547 |
| tbottu | 04Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=547 enhancement, P5, ---, mutantturkey, ASSIGNED, gtk-qt-engine does not support GTK3 |
| jumpship | gtk2 should work, at least I havn't seen anything related to gtk2 no working |
| KingSphinx | GTK2/Firefox will work to varying degrees of success, but none of them will follow TDE theme-wise |
| jumpship | Can't help ya there, I just keep things simple by not using the engine |
| Strangelv | "Is the gradient a .13 feature? |
| jumpship | But that wouldn't help you if you're trying to get them to look the same |
| gryc | the gradient issue is an ancient libart bug |
| gryc | it never got fixed because nothing uses it anymore, except for trinity, that is :p |
| Strangelv | What is it used for? |
| jumpship | I think it had to do with svg support, but could be wrong |
| gryc | Yes, it's for rendering SVGs |
| gryc | it's an assert gone awry for some reason |
| gryc | but the patch is there. I'd like to say I'll give a whack at fixing it for good sometime, but work makes me busy :( |
| gryc | would be nice to move to a better/newer library for svg, but that's quite an undertaking. |
| gryc | But anyway, time for sleep |
| * Strangelv waves |
| jumpship | Looks like tim plans to absorb the lib, if it's dead |
| *** gryc has quit IRC |
| Strangelv | Move the needed components to a new library with a different name? |
| Strangelv | "maybeq combinedh iwth other orphaned needed dependancies? |
| jumpship | Thats sounds like the plan |

| edogaa | 64 bit porgrams use slightly more ram than their 32 bit counterparts |

| Strangelv | I've learned the hard way that 64 GB of swap isn't a good idea. Something will go nuts and claim an infinite amount of memory and the kernel won't kill it until it uses up the entire swap partition |
| edogaa | XD |
| edogaa | why would you even NEED that much swap |

| Z_God | they definitely work |
| Z_God | xiaoy: http://tokra.lv/ |
| Strangelv | !seen tokra |
| tbottu | Strangelv: tokra was last seen in #trinity-desktop 4 weeks, 6 days, 14 hours, 43 minutes, and 0 seconds ago: <TokRa> o.O |
| xiaoy | Z_God, thanks. But i need an installation for repos, not a new distro to install... |
| Strangelv | Lucid is the long term support version IIRC -- it is one we should be supporting |
| Z_God | xiaoy: no problem, I hope you can easily remove the trinity packages you have now |
| Z_God | you really need to purge them all |
| Strangelv | higher priority than Meerkat, which I'm only running because I couldn't upgrade from that until around yesterday short of going with the nightlies repository |
| xiaoy | Z_God, did it already ;-) |
| *** Space_Man has quit IRC |
| Z_God | then kubuntu-desktop-kde3 instead of kubuntu-desktop-trinity & so on |
| xiaoy | Strangelv, unfortunalely 3.5.12-13 don't work on lucid |
| Strangelv | oops. What's teh obstacle? |
| Z_God | xiaoy: I have not been able to test newer versions yet, these bugs should be fixed soon though |
| Z_God | 3.5.12 nightlies did work on lucid |
| Z_God | 3.5.13 was mainly tested with natty I think |
| xiaoy | Z_God, 3.5.12 was working only ater forcing a pkg install |
| xiaoy | and still, on 3.5.12, i can't get my wireless to work |
| xiaoy | *after |
| Z_God | xiaoy: you mean knetworkmanager doesn't work? |
| xiaoy | Z_God, i mean also issueing wifi command in cli |
| Z_God | that's not related to trinity |
| xiaoy | Z_God, it must be: in gnome works all correctly |
| Z_God | then you're using gnome's tools |
| Z_God | but trinity does not affect any commandline tool functioning |
| Strangelv | Do Gnome's tools disable the CLI? |
| xiaoy | Z_God, dunno... i'm just reporting what i see |
| Strangelv | CLI tools, rather |
| jumpship | If the gnome tool works you could just use that from trinity |
| xiaoy | dhclient was not connecting well, maybe was because kdenetworkmanager |
| xiaoy | it must be like that |
| xiaoy | i maybe had to remove it, and than try again |
| Strangelv | knetwork manager sabotaging neworking wihel it's up and running sounds like a possibility. I should try networking on my notebook with issues withut the GUI running |
| Z_God | there are always issues using gui & cli tools at the same time |
| jumpship | There was talk on the mailing list about a change in networkmanager (the backend) seems the gnome tool has been updated, but the trinity knetworkmanager hasn't |
| Z_God | especially because the gui works through networkmanager and the cli stuff mostly does not |
| xiaoy | Z_God, on your system do you use kdenetworkmager? |
| Z_God | xiaoy: yep |
| xiaoy | and works as well as gnome's networkmanager? |
| xiaoy | do you have to disable the gnme's one to let kde's work propery? |
| Z_God | I never used the gnome one much |
| Z_God | it does what it needs to do, but more advanced stuff doesn't work with it |
| Z_God | simple stuff like wpa & wired ethernet are no problem |
| xiaoy | Z_God, and what about memory usage, is kde 3.5.11 lighter than ubuntu lucid's gnome version? |
| Z_God | I think so |
| xiaoy | good |
| Z_God | but I am not a gnome user |
| Z_God | I never really compared |
| xiaoy | thaks anyway |
| Z_God | best thing to do is just trying it |
| Strangelv | I've also done rather little with gnome |
| Strangelv | It wasn't until I ran acroos a Gnome developer's comments about why he hated KDE that I understood why I liked KDE so much better. He said that 'KDE developers never met a control they didn't like' |
| Strangelv | That's probably the best description of purpose and mission for KDE3/TDE I've read |
| xiaoy | Strangelv, what does it mean "never met a control they didn't like"? |
| Strangelv | GIMp tries to dumb things down -- to the point of hiding what the names of some applications are, in the belief that users don't need to know that the archive manager they're using is named File Roller |
| Strangelv | or that the image viewer is nabed eye of Gnome. Which to me is instant confusion. What do I call this application. 'file viewer that isn't Gwenview'? |
| jumpship | I never understood the gconf thing, they'd talk about confusing options dialogs in kde, so they hide them in a less well organized registry like lump |
| Strangelv | "They also tend to streamline controls, and according to what I've been told, it ends up requiring users to hack on text files to do certian things. KDE tries to do absolutely everytnhing potentially useful in the GUI |
| Strangelv | That must be it |
| Strangelv | The KDE developers took a very different tack, at leastu ntil they decided to throw away everything that made KDE great exceph for Konqueror and start over with something inferior |
| Strangelv | So something we need to keep in mind is what it is that we're most needing to carry the banner for |
| jumpship | That really blew me away, KDE4. Long live Trinity |
| xiaoy | good bye people, time to go... thanks again for the support |

| Strangelv | Speaking of Debian. Have they been sending us any patches from downstream? |
| jumpship | I'm not sure we'd see that without it being officially part of debian |
| Strangelv | I guess that would be a preresiquite, yes |
| jumpship | and while using /opt I don't think they'll include it |
| Strangelv | How long until we no longer need to hang out in /opt? |
| jumpship | I havn't heard any talk of changing anytime soon |
| Strangelv | ...or how mouch trouble would it be to supprot more than one location? |
| Strangelv | with the non-/opt location existing primarily for Debian and others that consider /opt to be a no longer even depreciated historical relic? |
| jumpship | I think that would need everything out of the kde namespace |
| Strangelv | That's already on our to-do list, right? |
| jumpship | I'm not sure |
| jumpship | It's a lot of work for not much benefit |
| * Strangelv hasn't kept up with the development notes for months. He hopes to remember that there's a meeting on the 15th |
| jumpship | Has a time been picked? |
| Strangelv | Support from Debian would probably be worth it |
| Strangelv | IIRC it's sometime in teh afternoon Eastern Standard Time, but I can't remember exactly when |
| jumpship | I'd love to see it included in Debian |
| Strangelv | That's worth being a major goal in and of itself |
| * Strangelv is probably not the only person who didn't kven know /opt existed until TDE moved there |
| jumpship | Know any Debian devs? |
| Strangelv | no, this is really my only involvement with the free and open source communities |
| Strangelv | ...and I've been far too not involved enough |
| jumpship | Google Earth or something else from google uses /opt |
| Strangelv | Nice to know we're not literally teh only existing product using it |
| Strangelv | s/existing/not purely historical/ |
| jumpship | I used it in some of my strange packages (wine games) |
| _Pete_ | I think /opt is traditionally used in linux to install non-open/commercial software |
| jumpship | Thats the impression I got, something else I used to use (non-free) went there, don't remember what |
| Strangelv | So we may not actually belong there... |
| jumpship | tldp.org says: This directory is reserved for all the software and add-on packages that are not part of the default installation. |
| Strangelv | ...and we want to be one of the available defaults |
| jumpship | that might be outdated anyway, it mentions staroffice and wordperfect |
| jumpship | brings back memories |

| Z_God | gcsimon: or install a commandline only system and follow the instructions from the site |

| Z_God | that'll give you ubuntu with trinity |
| gcsimon | the recent live cd crashes in a hardware full-virt vm |

| kion_ | : undefined symbol |
| kion_ | any ideas how to solve that? |
| kion_ | anyone else having that, actually? or is it me only? |
| kion_ | libkdeui.so.4 (libkdeui.so.4.2.0) resides in kdelibs4c2a-trinity, but it IS installed... I'm confused. |
| gcsimon | i'm not an expert on this, but can you run "ldd -r <filename>" vs. some application your are trying to run? |
| kion_ | yeah, it shows several undefined symbols |
| kion_ | but I mean... it's just a fresh installation - how could that be? and I have removed ALL kde* kubuntu* trinity* packages I had installed before. |
| kion_ | undefined symbol: _ZN7QObject21objectTreesListObjectEv (/opt/trinity/lib/libDCOP.so.4) |

| gcsimon | "QObject", sound like Qt issue |
| gcsimon | you could try and reinstall qt3... |
| gcsimon | but i'm pretty new to "apt" (or ubuntu for that matters), so i would not know how to do that |
| gcsimon | QObject is definitly part of Qt, so if he cannot find it - something is wrong with your Qt installation |
| kion_ | well sometimes guessing is the right thing :) |
| kion_ | I have just re-installed (some were not installed, actually) all libqt3-* libs and it seems to work fine now |
| kion_ | I wonder though why these libs were not caught by apt if they're required by trinity. |

| KingSphinx | How is it that I always seem to be away when there's a lot of stuff going on? Also, the whole "upgrade to avoid problems" thing? Only creates more trouble than it's actually worth. :/ |
| l0ner | as always |
| l0ner | uprade fixes old bugs and introduces new ones |
| l0ner | i's a rule |
| KingSphinx | By "more problems", I really mean "completely borked my system to where it fails to boot up completely" |
| l0ner | errr... what distro? |
| KingSphinx | Had to reinstall stock Ubuntu to get it to a usable state. |
| l0ner | ubuntu... this explains everyhing... |
| l0ner | i never had good experiences with ubuntu |
| KingSphinx | I tried upgrading Kubuntu Trinity 10.10 all the way to 11.10, but it broke trying to upgrade to 11.04 |
| l0ner | aw |
| l0ner | that must have hurt |
| KingSphinx | Not that big of a deal, just annoying is all. |
| l0ner | i noticed that recentely (from 9.10) distro upgrade is pretty broken in ubuntu |
| l0ner | i know |
| l0ner | i tried to update my firnds ubuntu (clean one) from 9.10 to 10.4... it broke |
| l0ner | *friends |
| l0ner | i convinced him to move to suse |
| KingSphinx | I've sometimes considered giving Debian a shot, but every live version I've tried seems to just want to pull packages from the internet instead of just installing the packages already there |
| KingSphinx | (that's a problem for me since my wireless card requires non-free firmware, and Debian doesn't like that) |
| l0ner | i'm getting feeling that debian don't like anything what doesn't fit with RMS philosophy.... |
| l0ner | free or GTFO |
| l0ner | and debian pull packages from net to have the latest versions of them |
| l0ner | i remember having debion on my laptop with closed source wireless drivers for my wifi though |
| l0ner | but i needed to use some external repos |
| l0ner | try searching round debian forums |
| l0ner | they have nice tutorials there |
| KingSphinx | It's relatively easy to get said firmware working under Ubuntu (install b43-fwcutter, extract firmware from file, then use fwcutter to install firmware) since Ubuntu installs a desktop out-of-box, but Debian's installer on a Debian Live system refuses to install Debian if you can't connect to the internet. |
| l0ner | can't you use cable connection for installation and then install b43? |
| l0ner | that's what i'd do |
| KingSphinx | I don't have an available ethernet connection (neighbor's wifi for internet access, he's okay with it) |
| l0ner | so it's an argh situation... |
| KingSphinx | The only distribution to work out-of-box with my wireless is Fedora, and it's only with Fedora 16 that the UUID will finally match everyone else's (1000:1000 vs. the old 500:500) |
| KingSphinx | 15 is still the newest version so far, so... yeah. |
| l0ner | never liked the UUID system |

| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: git is looking good so far! |
| Z_God | MutantTurkey: I updated the meeting agenda with some things that I think are important |
| l0ner | MutantTurkey: how did the dock(s) compiling go? |
| MutantTurkey | Z_God: good work |
| KingSphinx | Well, I had fun figuring out that installing Kubuntu/Trinity 10.10, then trying to upgrade all the way to 11.10 is a very bad idea... |
| MutantTurkey | l0ner: I got side tracked, but on a positive note, I have working files for Trinity that have been tested by another person, and just got done building some other modules |
| l0ner | nice |
| MutantTurkey | Z_God: looking at the notes now |
| Z_God | KingSphinx: it's much easier to do a commandline only install & then add Trinity |
| KingSphinx | Not exactly an option for me since I don't have any ethernet. |
| Z_God | ah yeah sorry, you told me |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: with the renaming, are you changing anything internally? |
| MutantTurkey | KingSphinx: wifi? |
| KingSphinx | Wifi only, yeah. Neighbor's cool with it. :P |
| MutantTurkey | KingSphinx: learn how to manually set it up! :D it's actually quite easy, though I havent seen a good guide around |
| Z_God | KingSphinx: maybe you should research setting up wifi without a GUI |
| Z_God | KingSphinx: what kind of protection does your WAP use? |
| MutantTurkey | iwconfig wlan0 essid "essid name" key "encryption key" channel X |
| MutantTurkey | sudo dhclient wlan0 |
| MutantTurkey | that's pretty much it on ubuntu |
| Z_God | that's WEP only though |
| MutantTurkey | Z_God: good call |
| MutantTurkey | WPA2? |
| KingSphinx | None, though I don't have any control over that (though I did ask my neighbor before using it anyway) |
| l0ner | he mentioned something with b43 |
| Z_God | KingSphinx: then it's easy, almost MutantTurkey's instructions |
| MutantTurkey | b43 ahhh! actually my realtek isn't doing much better... |
| KingSphinx | Broadcom B4312 AirForce 54g, I believe |
| MutantTurkey | should have got the intel centrino wifi adapter instea.d |
| Z_God | it should all work, maybe you just need to fetch the deb containing the firmware manually |
| KingSphinx | Didn't know it was Broadcom until I actually tried using it in Linux... |
| Z_God | once you get wifi to work without a GUI, you already achieved quite a bit I think ;) |
| KingSphinx | Yeah, I have the proper firmware/.deb, I just need to remember the commands to set said stuff up |
| l0ner | i've been setting my wifi crom cli quite some time |
| l0ner | *from |
| l0ner | it's not that difficult anyway |
| Z_God | KingSphinx: you can also do it with /etc/network/interfaces |
| Z_God | read "man interfaces" for that |
| Z_God | it may be a bit easier |
| Z_God | and it will also work with WPA |
| Z_God | you can just comment those entries again when you want to use NetworkManager |
| Z_God | NetworkManager automatically ignores all interfaces listed in /etc/network/interfaces so it will never conflict either |
| MutantTurkey | I dont like network manager always :P, when it works though, it's great! |
| MutantTurkey | Z_God: definitely some good points there on the etherpad |
| Z_God | MutantTurkey: I hope I'll be able to make it |
| Z_God | otherwise I hope it'll be ok to discuss those things without me, I know very little about the technical aspects, but I think these things should at least be addressed in some way :) |
| Z_God | I will be able to give a better indication about whether I can be online when a specific time is clear |
| MutantTurkey | okay |
| MutantTurkey | I'll send an email out later tonight about it |
| Z_God | ok :) |
| Z_God | it's midnight here, so I have to sleep now |
| Z_God | have a nice day all! |

| kb9vqf | darn, not here |
| kb9vqf | oh well |
| kb9vqf | regarding m23: cool! |
| kb9vqf | maybe if the smaller distros pick up TDE then the major ones will have to look at it eventually :) |
| kb9vqf | and our renaming project will help there as well by reducing the probability of us stomping on KDE4 libraries |
| kb9vqf | BTW here is the renaming status: http://trinity.etherpad.trinitydesktop.org/17 |
| kb9vqf | the GIT repos are STILL FROZEN to everyone but me |
| kb9vqf | I intend to complete the renaming and get the build system back online from GIT before thawing the repos |
| kb9vqf | still have a few weeks to do it according to the roadmap :) |

| kb9vqf | and? |
| Xu_R | had new cmake files to commit |
| kb9vqf | ah |
| Xu_R | but didn't know where to >_> |
| kb9vqf | GIT is frozen for now |
| kb9vqf | in fact I made it public but the conversion is not yet 100% complete |
| Xu_R | I see you renamed much of it :P |
| kb9vqf | remember I allocated a month for SVN-->GIT conversion |
| kb9vqf | yes I did |
| Xu_R | :D |
| kb9vqf | this is a unique opportunity |
| kb9vqf | for us to dump quite a bit of the original kde* naming scheme |
| Xu_R | good time, then :P |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| kb9vqf | not done yet though |
| kb9vqf | and definitely not ready for all the devs to start hammering away at it :-P |
| *** chaky_ has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Xu_R | hehe |
| kb9vqf | you guys are supposed to be fixing bugs in the bugtracker with patches right now BTW ;-) |
| Xu_R | yes. there seems to be a few patches that have come to the ML as of late :) the 3.5.13 release had quite a bit of attention |
| kb9vqf | That's a Very Good Thing :)) |
| kb9vqf | other than that this was probably the worst release we've ever had... |
| kb9vqf | notice that the schedule for 3.5.14 is quite rigid |
| kb9vqf | I really hated the sloppiness of this relesae |
| kb9vqf | *release |
| Xu_R | yea |
| kb9vqf | we won't be doing THAT again :) |
| Xu_R | hehe |
| Xu_R | hopefully not |
| kb9vqf | BTW the Etherpad's getting some attention again |
| kb9vqf | I believe I fixed all the bugs |
| Xu_R | :D |
| kb9vqf | public pads, etc. |
| *** chaky has quit IRC |
| *** chaky_ is now known as chaky |
| Xu_R | that's good! |
| Xu_R | we have a collaboration endpoint again :D |
| kb9vqf | and I threw up some more pads to keep track of the rename and such |
| kb9vqf | hehe |
| kb9vqf | in fact, if you want to see something renamed in 3.5.14 throw it up on that pad |
| Xu_R | sure. but i need to focus on physics, math, programming, and packaging :P |
| kb9vqf | hehe |
| kb9vqf | I meant I'd approve or reject it, then handle the rename before the GIT goes live |
| kb9vqf | the ony rule is that no user-visible app (such as konsole or kpowersave) gets renamed now |
| kb9vqf | backend libs and apps are fair game |
| Xu_R | ok |
| Xu_R | works for me |
| kb9vqf | if you see any more Etherpad problems just let me knwo |
| kb9vqf | *know |
| Xu_R | kk |
| kb9vqf | we are currently runnning the latest upstream GIT, as v1.1 has some serious issues |
| Xu_R | I saw you tagged git with versions :P |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| kb9vqf | 3.5.13 is rather loose |
| kb9vqf | but it will help in seeing what has changed |
| Xu_R | hehe, you know, cgit went and generated zip and tarballs for all the tags XD |
| kb9vqf | (some stuff didn't some straight over from SVN correctly) |
| kb9vqf | yeah, I see that |
| kb9vqf | we use submodules heavily, so cgit won't give you everything in that tarball by any stretch of the imaginiation |
| kb9vqf | *imaginiation |
| kb9vqf | grr |
| Xu_R | yea, I figured |
| kb9vqf | imagination |
| kb9vqf | see, I can spell, just not t Y pe |
| Xu_R | ;) |
| kb9vqf | anyway, tell MutantTurkey I said hi |
| * kb9vqf needs to run again |
| Xu_R | sure |
| Xu_R | ok, I'll see you around :) |
| Xu_R | (hopefully more often now :P) |
| kb9vqf | and for goodness sake START FIXING BUGS everyone! :)) |

| KingSphinx | I'd have to wait until 16 hits before I could install it without issue :/ 16 will finally switch to the "standard" 1000:1000 UUID |
| jiangyd | does anyone use kdedevelop-trinity in squeeze? |
| KingSphinx | And unless there's going to be repos for Fedora 16 as well, there wouldn't really be any incentive for me to make the leap again. |
| KingSphinx | Oh, just out of curiosity: what's TDE for Fedora like? The "standard" experience or does it have stuff specific to Fedora like the Bluecurve theme? |
| edogaa | o dpm |

| edogaa | hey |
| edogaa | how do I make kdm the default display manager? |

| drvodka | oh just as you said that |

| marek77 | hi |
| marek77 | does someone know how to migrate $HOME/.kde from KDE 3.5 to Trinity? |
| marek77 | can it be done? |
| *** Z_God has joined #trinity-desktop |
| *** samelian has quit IRC |
| *** samelian has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Space_Man | marek77: that is an interesting question |
| Space_Man | maybe rename .kde and log out / in |
| Fleck | first logout |
| Fleck | then rename |
| marek77 | trying right now |
| rzs19 | you could try to rename it to .trinity but no idea if this is enough? "mv ~/.trinity ~/.trinity.bak; cp -a ~/.kde ~/.trinity" |
| Fleck | make backup :) |
| marek77 | ha! trinity managed to start |
| rzs19 | atm it _should_ work without problems, but what is in the future, if we have to rename all application from k{applicationname} to *wathever* |
| marek77 | why would that be? |
| rzs19 | like kwin... |
| rzs19 | if i read corectly, there is a bug report. |
| rzs19 | some kde devs don't want that trinity use the same application name, like the kwin maintainer. |
| marek77 | hmm. a migration tool ? something with a lot of renaming commands inside (sed? ;-) ) |
| marek77 | OTOH, KDE is OSS, and Trinity is a fork, so naming should not be an issue? |

| tbottu | 04Bug 575: major, P5, ---, kb9vqf, RESOLVED FIXED, Official KDE request to rename kwin |
| *** l0ner has joined #trinity-desktop |
| marek77 | what I'm interested is to migrate my machine from CentOS5 to CentOS6, but don't want KDE4, so I'm looking at Trinity to keep my "KDE3 desktop like" with all the settings, icon bars etc.. |
| marek77 | since RedHat decided to upgrade to KDE4 in RHEL6, I'm stuck with CentOS5.x |
| rzs19 | the problem is, there is a window manager with the name twin |
| rzs19 | yeah naming shoulkdnt be a problem, but you see, it is ... :( |
| rzs19 | there are tons of application and how would they be called? questions over questions |
| rzs19 | _K_onqueror, amaro_k_, _K_onsole ... |
| marek77 | well, let's say the binary will be renamed to tWhatever, nothing imposes also rename of config files in ~/.trinity does it? |
| marek77 | the "K" naming is a bit silly, imho ;-) |
| rzs19 | yep they need to finde some new cool names. |
| l0ner | well, ranaming will take some time |
| l0ner | *renaming |
| rzs19 | yep it would, renaming the python bindings, could break many scripts |
| rzs19 | renaming could make some troubles... |
| l0ner | but at some point it will be necessary, since trinity apps aren't the same apps KDE4 have, and yet, they have the same name |
| l0ner | Kmail from trinity isn't Kmail from KDE4 |
| l0ner | 2 apps with same name, it will create confusion at some point |
| marek77 | isn't versioning enough? Firefox 3.6 is not the same app as Firefox 7.0 |
| l0ner | yes, thats true |
| l0ner | but it is still forefox |
| l0ner | *firefox |
| marek77 | one can argue that Trinity is KDE3.5 (++) |
| marek77 | which has the same name as KDE(4) |
| marek77 | in the beginning of KDE4 one could have both installed side by side even |
| l0ner | that's true too |
| l0ner | but in this case the version number is part of the name |
| marek77 | it wasn't for kwin, konsole, ... |
| l0ner | when it isn't you'll get in the repo two apps with the same name and different versions, and normal user will probably choose the one with higher version, because it's newer |
| marek77 | true |
| l0ner | that's why some things should be renamed |
| l0ner | even adding -trinity after name would work |
| marek77 | with lots of strange and surely annoying side effects... :-( |
| l0ner | but those can be removed with time |
| l0ner | I look at current trinity as some beta-version |
| l0ner | there are many things that should work, worked in the past, but with time broke |
| l0ner | and should be fixed |

| l0ner | yep |
| l0ner | i sent mail to maillist |
| MobileTurkey | do you have a log? also why not use the PKGBUILD? |
| l0ner | well I wanted to do it manually |
| l0ner | but I'm beginning to think about it |
| MobileTurkey | pkgbuilds are your friend |
| MobileTurkey | you are still compiling it, it justtakes out the hassle. |
| MobileTurkey | trust me :P |
| MobileTurkey | trying to get the trinity wiki page on archinux.org fixed up |
| *** vhumpa has quit IRC |
| l0ner | well the page was pretty confusional |
| MobileTurkey | it was ridiculous |
| MobileTurkey | to much crap |
| l0ner | anyway I'm compiling qt3 right now, If I get the same error i'll use pkgbuild |
| l0ner | yeah, I read it like 3 times and still was like wtf!? |
| MobileTurkey | wtf wtf wtf |
| MobileTurkey | David wrote it like a logbook, a documentary, rather than a wiki page |
| l0ner | trinity wiki page on building it manually misses some things too |
| MobileTurkey | I am just going with PKGBUILDS now. |
| MobileTurkey | I need to get binaryhosting space for the packages |
| MobileTurkey | and Kaitocracy won't email me back and I've had no reply from david |
| l0ner | can't you use tde-packaging in git for packages? |
| MobileTurkey | yes |
| MobileTurkey | I need to upload it asap |
| MobileTurkey | though I made a seperate folder for the release. |
| MobileTurkey | for 3.5.13 |
| MobileTurkey | then the master/ will be renamed to git once we get git packages |
| MobileTurkey | make sense? |
| MobileTurkey | kb9vqf: ping |
| l0ner | yes |

| samelian | kb9vqf: hello |
| kb9vqf | Hi! |
| kb9vqf | Long time no see... :) |
| samelian | hehe, busy |
| samelian | i need commit rights to git repo |
| samelian | I sent you my ssh public key |
| Z_God | was this already posted here? http://dot.kde.org/2011/11/08/trinity-project-keeping-35-alive |
| samelian | Z_God: yes, it was |
| Z_God | ok :) |
| kb9vqf | samelian: The GIT repostory is not yet open for business |
| samelian | aha |
| kb9vqf | also, I don't allow SSH access to any of my machines for a variety of reasons ;-) |
| kb9vqf | this was reinforced by the recent kernel.org hacking problem |
| samelian | but how we will have access to git? |
| kb9vqf | HTTP auth |
| samelian | aha, ok |
| samelian | svn will not be used for development, right? |
| kb9vqf | correct |
| samelian | i saw that is frozen |
| kb9vqf | yes |
| Z_God | wouldn't it be possible to have a bridge between git & svn? |
| kb9vqf | git svn |
| Z_God | so that patches going into git are also applied to the svn tree |
| kb9vqf | it's not quite that easy... |
| Z_God | ok |
| samelian | ok, at this moment I want to continue cmake port, but I need access to repos |
| kb9vqf | when we moved to GIT I "exploded" the tree into small repositories, one for each library and application |
| Z_God | it was cool to have you in KDE's SVN stats though ;) |
| samelian | to upate my local sources |
| kb9vqf | ah, ok |
| samelian | update* |
| kb9vqf | let them stabilize a bit first, otherwise we'll have one nasty merge :-/ |
| kb9vqf | I'm still in there checking everything out and fixing problems in rather large batches |
| samelian | aha |
| kb9vqf | *migration problems, NOT bugs :)) |
| samelian | I will try to update my sources from latest tarballs |
| kb9vqf | you'll stil run into merge problems |
| kb9vqf | folders were renamed, etc. |
| Z_God | it seems there are some problems with the 3.5.13 packages for lucid actually |
| kb9vqf | there is anonymous GIT access if you really want to proceed knowing you may have merge problems |
| Z_God | some people were asked for the older PPAs so they could get things running |
| Z_God | asking* |
| kb9vqf | I did keep the old 3.5.12 PPA |
| Z_God | unfortunately, I have a bandwidth cap, so I can't easily download everything to test it |
| kb9vqf | just remove the -v3.5.13 from the sources.list files |
| samelian | kb9vqf: anonymous should be enough for now |
| samelian | you can tell how to access it? |
| kb9vqf | Z_God: Please encourage them to file bug reports |
| kb9vqf | we want to fix the problems for 3.5.14 |
| Z_God | kb9vqf: I did! |
| *** l0ner has joined #trinity-desktop |
| kb9vqf | ok :) |
| Z_God | and there have been quite a few reports |
| * kb9vqf noticed that |
| kb9vqf | that's a good thing |
| Z_God | some people couldn't even get a basic desktop working without crashes |
| kb9vqf | I don't understand that personally |
| Z_God | somehow there were symbol errors |
| kb9vqf | sounds like mixed 3.5.12 and 3.5.13 packages |
| kb9vqf | samelian: git clone http://scm.trinitydesktop.org/scm/git/tde |
| kb9vqf | git submodule init |
| samelian | thx |
| kb9vqf | git submodule update |
| kb9vqf | that will give you *everything* |
| Z_God | that's still a bug though |
| kb9vqf | Z_God: A packaging bug |
| Z_God | yep |
| kb9vqf | samelian: http://scm.trinitydesktop.org/scm/ will show you all the repositories |
| kb9vqf | you don't have to pull everything if you don't want to |
| l0ner | kb9vqf: is it normal that command "git clone http://scm.trinitydesktop.org/scm/git/tqtinterface" don't pulls content of subdirs? |
| samelian | I will need them anyway |
| kb9vqf | l0ner: This is GIT's weakest point |
| kb9vqf | git submodule init |
| kb9vqf | git submodule update |
| kb9vqf | that will give you everything |
| l0ner | yep, worked |
| kb9vqf | newer versions of GIT try to pull submodules automatically |
| l0ner | it asks me for pass |
| l0ner | but it works of o leave it empty |
| kb9vqf | right |
| kb9vqf | there is a LOT of automation on this end to work around this very weak part of GIT |
| kb9vqf | samelian: I recommend going to your main tde checkout directory (where you pulled http://scm.trinitydesktop.org/scm/git/tde) and running ./scripts/switch_all_submodules_to_head_and_clean |
| kb9vqf | actually, anyone who tries to pull the entire repository should do that |
| samelian | ok |
| kb9vqf | that will clear any username/password errors and populate all submodules |
| kb9vqf | SVN was much, much better here |
| kb9vqf | but GIT has its own advantages I guess |
| l0ner | well, up till now i used only svn |
| samelian | I was very happy with svn :) |
| kb9vqf | as was I |
| l0ner | so, why move to git? |
| kb9vqf | popular demand |
| kb9vqf | SVn is perceived as outdated, etc. |
| kb9vqf | KDE itself is trying to shut down their SVN server |
| samelian | is not trendy anymore :) |
| kb9vqf | and my biggest complaint: SVN is SLOOOWWWW |
| l0ner | well... so it is kde3.5/trinity for kde4 devs and fanboys |
| Z_God | git has many advantages over svn it seems |
| kb9vqf | yes it does |
| Z_God | so I understand people moving |
| kb9vqf | it just falls down completely with submodules (SVN externals) |
| Z_God | but git is mainly useful when you want to branch a lot |
| Z_God | if you have only a single branch that everybody works on, svn is fine |
| l0ner | well... I think trin wiki needs some updating |
| l0ner | in that field |
| kb9vqf | yes it does :) |
| kb9vqf | The move is not complete |
| kb9vqf | you guys are accessing alpha quality stuff with no docs at this point |
| *** schreiberstein has joined #trinity-desktop |
| kb9vqf | Z_God: The biggest advantage of GIT for me is that it doesn't tie up my connection constantly for basic commits |
| l0ner | oh, and I wrote mail about my problems with qt3 compilation if you hadn't noticed |
| kb9vqf | SVn is quite bandwidth heavy, and a single glitch can cause a MESS |
| Z_God | kb9vqf: I didn't know about this :) |
| kb9vqf | Well, I noticed it more near the end |
| kb9vqf | svn mv wasn't working |
| kb9vqf | I had to try and try to get even one mv command to commit correctly |
| kb9vqf | once you hit a magic number of files things start timing out |
| Z_God | sounds like a crappy link as well |
| *** schreiberstein has quit IRC |
| kb9vqf | not on my end |
| Z_God | but I mainly used subversion locally |
| l0ner | oh, I remember trying to pull trinity form svn somthing like 40 times becaus it was giving me some errors on every attempt ... |
| *** schreiberstein has joined #trinity-desktop |
| kb9vqf | right |
| kb9vqf | KDE had a garbage link/server |
| Z_God | that's probably not smth git would have solved then... |
| kb9vqf | SVN is just not designed for a project of this size |
| kb9vqf | don't get me started on the SVN merge problems |
| kb9vqf | we didn't see them because we had two committers |
| kb9vqf | if I would have added more...well... |
| * kb9vqf shudders |
| kb9vqf | I like the distributed aspect of GIT |
| * kb9vqf hates single points of failure |
| Z_God | I never had big merge issues with svn |
| Z_God | but you need to do up first then ci |
| Z_God | otherwise it does tend to break |
| kb9vqf | right |
| Z_God | but I think GIT is much better with this |
| kb9vqf | and if the up breaks your local copy for any reason...*poof* |
| Z_God | I guess it just uses patch for this |
| kb9vqf | there goes all your work |
| samelian | kb9vqf: so, what's next? :) |
| Z_God | that's scary I never saw that |
| samelian | I mean, roadmap |
| Z_God | svn would create backups for me then |
| kb9vqf | Z_God: Not for me--odd |
| kb9vqf | oh well |
| kb9vqf | samelian: Meeting Nov. 15 AFAIK |
| kb9vqf | Bug fixing is top priority as usual |
| samelian | aha |
| kb9vqf | http://trinity.etherpad.trinitydesktop.org/15 |
| samelian | hmm, I think I have no more access to etherpad |
| kb9vqf | samelian: Request an account |
| samelian | ok |
| kb9vqf | I'll approve it right now :) |
| samelian | kb9vqf: i did |
| kb9vqf | approved |
| samelian | kb9vqf: i'm in, thx |
| kb9vqf | np |
| l0ner | i just compiled qt3 and now I'm trying to compile tqtinterface, but cmake complains about missing moc |
| l0ner | damn |
| kb9vqf | cmake needs to have the Qt3 directory passed to it as a -D flag |
| kb9vqf | it's not as "smart" as Autotools was |
| samelian | or QTDIR environment variable |
| samelian | I preffer to not be too agressive to detect things |
| l0ner | -DQTDIR=/opt/qt3 -DQT_PREFIX_DIR=/opt/qt3 |
| kb9vqf | which is fine, that's why I put "smart" in quotes ;-) |
| samelian | hehe |
| kb9vqf | Does moc need to be on the $PATH? |
| samelian | latest patches to cmake was a little to agressive for my taste |
| l0ner | still complains |
| kb9vqf | samelian: My patches? |
| samelian | I think by another one |
| kb9vqf | oh, ok |
| kb9vqf | It might be a good idea to set CMake policy on the Etherpad |
| samelian | yes |
| kb9vqf | we can work on it before the meeting and approve/reject it |
| samelian | when I'm developing e cmake test I assume that the system is pretty standard and sane |
| samelian | for non-standard systems packagers have variables, to point correct paths |
| kb9vqf | Well, start a pad and put down your CMake philosophy :) |
| samelian | ok :) |
| kb9vqf | we can comment on it |
| kb9vqf | etc. |
| l0ner | anyway what I do and what cmake throws at me: http://paste.pocoo.org/raw/504760/ |
| samelian | l0ner: you really have moc in /opt/qt3/bin? |
| l0ner | yep |
| l0ner | wait I'll check $PATH |
| samelian | cmake using absolute paths, I guess |
| samelian | l0ner: show me your FindTQt.cmake |
| l0ner | $PATH if fine |
| l0ner | samelian: http://paste.pocoo.org/raw/504764/ |
| Z_God | kb9vqf: were you able to read the german article about trinity at some point? |
| kb9vqf | Z_God: You are Julius, right? |
| Z_God | yep |
| kb9vqf | yes I did |
| kb9vqf | real nasty |
| kb9vqf | I put several paragraphs on our meeting etherpad as a result :-P |
| l0ner | why? |
| Z_God | it seems good that people are taking a look at the project like that though |
| Z_God | and the code |
| samelian | l0ner: please show me ConfigureChecks.cmake of tqtinterface |
| kb9vqf | good? |
| l0ner | now |
| Z_God | I'm sure that such things can either be solved with a fix or a good motivation |
| Z_God | fixed* |
| kb9vqf | What I saw was a bunch of attacks on the fact that Trinity doesn't have a fancy graphical effects stack :-/ |
| samelian | haha |
| Z_God | yes, the biggest part of the article is silly |
| Z_God | but there are some valid remarks in there |
| kb9vqf | what he doesn't get is that we don't WANT a stack like that :) |
| l0ner | samelian: http://paste.pocoo.org/raw/504767/ |
| samelian | yes, actually this is ideea of trinity |
| kb9vqf | which remarks? About binary compatibility? |
| Z_God | yes |
| kb9vqf | to me that's a versioning nit |
| kb9vqf | Firefox breaks comatibility with each new release |
| Z_God | but it prevents people from adopting now |
| kb9vqf | what he is taking issue with is our version numbering system |
| Z_God | and this is something that people expect |
| kb9vqf | and I agree that it is time to change our versioning system |
| l0ner | kb9vqf: could you give me etherpad access? I'd like to read this... |
| kb9vqf | l0ner: It should be public :-/ |
| Z_God | if you do not keep binary compatibility, it's fine with me, but I think it's important that you have good reasons to break it |
| Z_God | and those things should be explained on the trinity site as well |
| kb9vqf | l0ner: http://trinity.etherpad.trinitydesktop.org/15 |
| samelian | l0ner: for unknown reason, your cmake checks try to find moc-qt3, instead moc |
| samelian | try to replace moc-qt3 with moc |
| kb9vqf | Z_God: If we keep binary compatibility we will not be able to decouple from KDE 3.5.10 and Qt 3.3.8b |
| kb9vqf | and the project WILL die as a result |
| Z_God | ok, that seems a valid reason |
| kb9vqf | Unfortunately the needed changes are extensive and could easily take a few years to complete (!) |
| Z_God | but I can understand it that people were expecting a binary compatible version |
| l0ner | samelian: how? in ConfigureChecks.cmake? |
| kb9vqf | so I took the lesser of two evils and have been releasing binary incomatible versions |
| samelian | l0ner: yes |
| kb9vqf | basically each new release has more of the conversion done |
| Z_God | and I understand that Ilya is not so quick in switching, because it means loads of recompiling for him then |
| samelian | actually who cares about binary compatibility? |
| samelian | and for what reason? |
| Z_God | distros care |
| kb9vqf | for ease in packaging |
| Z_God | at least non-source based distros |
| kb9vqf | I can see their point of view |
| samelian | just recompile it and that's all |
| kb9vqf | that has been my approach :) |
| kb9vqf | distros don't like to do that though |
| Z_God | but I think it's important this is in the release notes at least |
| kb9vqf | that binary compatibility is broken? |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | sounds reasonabe |
| kb9vqf | *reasonable |
| Z_God | that binary compatibility is broken to move away from Qt3 |
| kb9vqf | well, to move away from the old versions of Qt3 at any rate |
| Z_God | and how people are expected to deal with each trinity release |
| kb9vqf | I have problems with not being allowed to break binary compat for a few reasons |
| Z_God | in debian's case, every new package version that is binary incompatible get an increased integer added to the package *name* |
| *** marek77 has quit IRC |
| *** lnr has joined #trinity-desktop |
| *** marek77 has joined #trinity-desktop |
| kb9vqf | Primary is that it completely ties my hands as far as adding new libraries to do things |
| lnr | samelian: no change |
| kb9vqf | which means that Trinity would not be able to stay up to date with new technologies |
| kb9vqf | as an example, if I had to keep binary compat 3.5.13 would not have the monitor and display tool |
| samelian | lnr: same error? show me cmakechecks again |
| lnr | same |
| Z_God | kb9vqf: why couldn't that be done? |
| kb9vqf | Because I had to change the underlying libkrandr library API |
| kb9vqf | to add the new features |
| Z_God | I don't get this example, because I don't think it requires changes the existing ABI of kdelibs |
| lnr | samelian: http://paste.pocoo.org/raw/504769 |
| Z_God | but you could add features without changing the existing ABI |
| kb9vqf | changes to APIs propagate to ABIs |
| kb9vqf | AFAIK |
| Z_God | only adding new ones |
| kb9vqf | actually if constructors are changed the ABI breaks |
| kb9vqf | or data members |
| Z_God | sure |
| Z_God | but you could leave the existing constructors intact |
| kb9vqf | well, data members were changed and added to track the monitor configuration objects |
| Z_God | and only add new ones for the new features |
| *** l0ner has quit IRC |
| Z_God | this is what everybody else does at least |
| kb9vqf | that leads to unmaintainable code very quickly |
| Z_God | ok |
| kb9vqf | hacks on top of hacks on top of nasty hacks |
| *** lnr is now known as l0ner |
| kb9vqf | I've had to rewrite code from KDE3.5.10 that was written that way |
| kb9vqf | and now I know why |
| Z_God | maybe this is the reason why trinity could be handled till now with relatively few devs |
| Z_God | but it is a big shift for the code |
| kb9vqf | it also explains KDE4's bugginess |
| Z_God | so we should write these things down |
| Z_God | right now, it confuses people |
| kb9vqf | yes, probably |
| kb9vqf | do you mind starting a new pad? |
| kb9vqf | I'm still pretty busy ATM |
| Z_God | not really |
| Z_God | also busy, but I will do my best |
| kb9vqf | ok, thanks :) |
| kb9vqf | My mentality is that I refuse to sacrifice functionality, code readability, and introduce bugs just to keep ABI compatibility with something that was probably broken to begin with (hence the need for the ABI change) |
| kb9vqf | if we need to release as 3.6, 3.7, 3.8 etc then we shall do so |
| samelian | l0ner: try -DMOC_EXECUTABLE=/opt/qt3/bin/moc |
| l0ner | ok |
| samelian | is not ideal, but should work |
| kb9vqf | and this ABI compat requirement probably explains why large projects tend to crash a LOT |
| l0ner | worked |
| samelian | ok |
| samelian | I think cmake files was changed in my absence :) |
| samelian | I will review it |
| kb9vqf | samelian: Feel free to weigh in on the ABI compat pad when it is up :) |

| l0ner | samelian: ok, have fun |
| samelian | kb9vqf: I don't care about binary compatibility, I suggest you to not waste too much time with it |
| kb9vqf | that is my thought as well |
| kb9vqf | but this particular issue will keep nipping at our heels until it is addressed |
| samelian | I can't see any sense to update trinity, but using old applications |
| l0ner | GL/gl.h is part of? |
| samelian | opengl, i guess |
| samelian | or I did not undestood your question :) |
| l0ner | since make complains about it missing, I'm trying to figure out what deps I am missing |
| samelian | aha, i see |
| samelian | for gl install opengl development files |
| samelian | I think is mesa, actually, not sure |
| l0ner | from what I understood arch autoinstalls them |
| l0ner | well, theoretically i have mesa installed |
| l0ner | i'll try to reinstall and see what happens |
| samelian | including dev files? |
| l0ner | should be |
| Z_God | kb9vqf: :) |
| samelian | in my system is /usr/lib/opengl/xorg-x11/include/gl.h |
| kb9vqf | Hey, it's a collaborative tool, right? ;-) |
| kb9vqf | we can have an entire argument on there |
| l0ner | since in arch -dev packages don't exist, I assume they are included in std packages |
| Z_God | maybe we should also mention the GPL and only caring about FREE software :) |
| kb9vqf | yeah |
| Z_God | I think the FSF could appreciate that |
| samelian | actually why we care about opinions of people who don't use trinity? :) |
| Z_God | kb9vqf: I don't think you need to create a completely new library |
| Z_God | libc also supports multiple ABIs within one lib |
| kb9vqf | If I'm not allowed to change the constructors or data members what choice do I really have? |
| Z_God | add new constructors |
| samelian | will become a really mess |
| Z_God | having multiple constructors for one object is possible right? |
| Z_God | true |
| kb9vqf | but adding a constructor breaks ABI compat |
| Z_God | but I'm just responding on the multiple libs things, it seems a but crazy |
| Z_God | really? |
| kb9vqf | AFAIK |
| kb9vqf | constructors and destructors are special |
| kb9vqf | something about vtable entries |
| Z_God | that would be crazy |
| samelian | even adding a simple method break abi |
| samelian | the size of object is changing, I guess |
| kb9vqf | yes, and the vtable is chifting |
| kb9vqf | *shifting |
| kb9vqf | constructors and desructors are at the beginning of the table |
| kb9vqf | so they can shift the entire table |
| kb9vqf | it becomes a big problem if classes inherit from the base class that has been changed |
| samelian | the app wil crash even if half of table is shifted |
| kb9vqf | sometimes |
| kb9vqf | only on access to the shifted half |
| samelian | yes |
| Z_God | seems C++ is indeed quite weak for binary compatibility |
| samelian | but an unused method is useless, right? :) |
| kb9vqf | data members are located at the end of the table, so typically that is where the crash happens |
| * Xu_R wishes he could punch Ilya for his reply right now |
| l0ner | kb9vqf: I found arts inside tdemultimedia, what is it? |
| * Xu_R notes that that was random, but I needed to vent. >_> |
| Z_God | Xu_R: I think it would be good to involve Ilya in this discussion |
| kb9vqf | now we do need to be careful, as most of these bugs are only present when inheritance is used |
| samelian | arts is sound server of kde |
| samelian | arts must die :) |
| l0ner | i know what is arts |
| l0ner | samelian: i want to be the one who kills it |
| samelian | hehe |
| l0ner | i wonder what arts does in tdemultimedia |
| samelian | maybe is a plugin for something, who knows... |
| Z_God | ok, now my turn: What's wrong with aRts? :) |
| l0ner | I'd like to see trinity dropping arts for something more modern... maybe pulse? but It will take some time |
| l0ner | it's old |
| Z_God | there's a lot of stuff that's old ;) |
| Z_God | l0ner: pulse does less than arts |
| samelian | in my opinion, tde should use directly ALSA |
| Xu_R | Z_God: he's already on the mindset that he does not want to abandon KDE3 for trinity |
| samelian | i never used arts for other task than sound notifications |
| Z_God | ALSA cannot handle all the formats that aRts can handle |
| l0ner | nah, you need to use some soundmixer, otherwise you'll end like me, it is ot amarok playing sound, or audacity playing it |
| Xu_R | which is why he is not packaging or anything. He even is trying to convince factory developers to maintain GNOME2 (?!?!) |
| Z_God | l0ner: that part ALSA can do |
| l0ner | alsamixer |
| l0ner | wich is a soundmixer itself |
| Xu_R | on his thought that the number of packages determine quality (...) |
| kb9vqf | l0ner: Trinity can use pulse |
| samelian | is not task of kde to play different formats |
| Xu_R | anyway, I'll stop on that. |
| kb9vqf | arts is sort of a basic audio layer that can interface to multiple backends |
| kb9vqf | you don't NEED to use it if you don't want to |
| Z_God | Xu_R: we've been discussing the binary compatibility thing here, this makes it hard for people like Ilya to switch to trinity |
| Z_God | suse likely has multiple compontents that are intertwined deeply with KDE 3.5 |
| l0ner | kb9vqf: i know, but not in the way i have in mind, right now arts mixes whatever it gets from trinity and send it to puls wich mixes other things |
| Xu_R | Z_God: actually, no. if we made YaST2-Qt3 backend use TQT, that would be it. |
| Xu_R | Z_God: it's all a matter of recompilation in the end. |
| Z_God | samelian: even the sound effects included have different formats, something needs to handle that |
| Z_God | Xu_R: true, but Ilya doesn't feel like doing that ;) |
| Xu_R | which is why I have to handle it >_> |
| Z_God | sure but it's quite a bit of work obviously |
| l0ner | wait, so arts is not only the audio mixer, but it's audiomixer and sound play system? |
| samelian | Z_God: this is not the problem of application which need to play something? |
| Z_God | it's your choice to go for that & his to go the easy route, which imo is unstandable |
| Z_God | samelian: no, this is the problem that aRts was solving for all the apps |
| Z_God | they can just throw sounds files at arts and let arts play them |
| l0ner | so arts is a decoder too |
| Z_God | whatever the format |
| l0ner | something like gstreamer? |
| Z_God | l0ner: arts depends on the normal decoding libs for that |
| Z_God | l0ner: kinda |
| l0ner | hmmm... |
| l0ner | add to arts (modern) features that pulse have |
| l0ner | like volume control for each app and so on... |
| Z_God | it seems better to replace arts at some point |
| l0ner | and trinity won't have nedd to use pulse |
| Z_God | but it is not that easy |
| samelian | arts is not anymore updated, for long time |
| samelian | was abandoned by author because became a mess |
| l0ner | since replacing arts would mean creating new soundmixer and new decoding framework |
| l0ner | even kde4 uses something else now... |
| l0ner | since it is a mess and was abandoned even by author, replacing it at some point will be necessary |
| kb9vqf | l0ner: If you disable the sound system entirely I believe individual Trinity apps will talk to ALSA/Pulse directly |
| kb9vqf | though I have never tried it :) |
| samelian | nope, if you disable arts, you will loosing audio notifications |
| kb9vqf | Pulse still causes a lot of problems on my systems |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| samelian | I think we need to build a new notification system |
| kb9vqf | Well, that's kind of low priority ATM |
| l0ner | i thought about it too |
| kb9vqf | Z_God: OK, my arguments are on the Etherpad |
| kb9vqf | feel free to pick them apart |
| Z_God | kb9vqf: great :) |
| l0ner | imho priority right now should be getting to work things taht are not working |
| l0ner | replacing hal and so on |
| l0ner | after that you can begin to think about modernizations |
| l0ner | i might have some ideas for trinity, but they are only ideas |
| kb9vqf | ideas are great! |
| kb9vqf | they go in the bug tracker as wishlist items :) |
| Z_God | hal works for me ;) |
| l0ner | but not for me, hal is obsolete, distros dropped it, and it should be replaced |
| Z_God | Alexander Julliard from Wine was also complaining when distros were suddenly dropping hal btw |
| l0ner | i had problems getting trinity to work on gentoo because of hal |
| Z_God | because it didn't make sense to replace it again with udisks or smth like that |
| l0ner | well, hal was working, but had issues |
| kb9vqf | HAL would have been replaced a long time ago if there was a clear, fully functioning, stable replacement |
| kb9vqf | As it stands now Trinity has to absorb a good chunk of the old HAL functionality, which will take a while |
| l0ner | I know, You've explained it to me some time ago |
| kb9vqf | (NOT the HAL code, just its functionality) |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| * kb9vqf can never keep people straight :) |
| *** chaky has joined #trinity-desktop |
| l0ner | :) |
| l0ner | there are many things to be done in trinity it seems |
| l0ner | while kde3.5 wasn't maintained many things broke |
| kb9vqf | yep |
| kb9vqf | Linux is changing too fast right now... :)( |
| kb9vqf | Z_God: I added a section on vtables |
| kb9vqf | so maybe the problem is clearer now |
| Z_God | kb9vqf: thanks, I'll read it a bit later |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| kb9vqf | like I said, feel free to blast holes in my comments :) |
| Z_God | I guess I can't, but maybe other people will ;) |
| Z_God | anyhow it's good also these issues are addressed now when there'll be another release :) |
| l0ner | arts cmake complaining: http://paste.pocoo.org/raw/504810/ |
| samelian | l0ner: seems that libltdl directory was moved or removed |
| l0ner | i commented out line about libltdl and cmake shut up |
| l0ner | but i got this while compiling: don't know if it's related: http://paste.pocoo.org/raw/504813/ |
| l0ner | samelian: about libltdl: "A system independent dlopen wrapper for GNU libtool" - take out from my package manager |
| samelian | yes, it is related |
| samelian | libltdl was part of trinity |
| samelian | not sure why missing now |
| l0ner | it's not present in git tree, nor it svn |
| l0ner | *in |
| samelian | it is present in my local tree |
| samelian | ask Tim why it was removed |
| l0ner | kb9vqf: ping |
| l0ner | kb9vqf: libltdl directory not present in arts (git), needed for compiling |

| Space_Man | For Fedora 16 (v3.5.13) |
| KingSphinx | Yay! That was quick! |
| Space_Man | it appears there are binaries avaivable |
| KingSphinx | 32 or 64-bit? |
| Space_Man | looks like the f16 dirs are missing |
| Space_Man | maybe you need wait for the mirrors to update :P |
| Space_Man | there are some details here http://mirror.its.uidaho.edu/pub/trinity/trinity/rpm/ |
| *** MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop |
| KingSphinx | At least there's a live CD (albiet based on F15) that'll give me a good idea of what Fedora/Trinity is like. |
| kb9vqf | Mirrors will take 24 hours....I was just informed of the f16 binaries an hour ago |
| kb9vqf | samelian, MutantTurkey, Xu_R: Looks like we kind of got spammed a bit with bugs |
| kb9vqf | Can you guys do some triage? |
| kb9vqf | Also remember that some of the nastier bugs should be fixed via patches while the GIT is frozen |
| kb9vqf | *patches uploaded to the bug reports |
| MutantTurkey | will those packages be pushed as binaries? |
| MutantTurkey | also i'll start looking |
| rzs19 | how can i make a logout with dcop and lock the scree nwith dcop? |
| rzs19 | dcop kmserver logout? |
| rzs19 | i want the same features like over the k... ähm trinity menue |

| rzs19 | but for today, i will go to bed, wish everyone a good night :) |
| rzs19 | bye |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: we got mentioned on LWN |
| kb9vqf | saw that! |
| KingSphinx | LWN? |
| *** rzs19 has quit IRC |
| MutantTurkey | Linux News. It's the best |
| MutantTurkey | http://lwn.net/ |
| MutantTurkey | linux weekly news I think |
| kb9vqf | Also noticed how the KDE3<-->KDE4 flame war instantly ignited |
| MutantTurkey | BUT not that badly. |
| MutantTurkey | Also people saying "the power of FOSS" |
| MutantTurkey | and the dot.kde.org article was very nice |
| KingSphinx | I don't see anything other than 15 Years of KDE... was it mentioned in there somewhere? |
| kb9vqf | it is separate |
| kb9vqf | and yes, I think (parts?) of the two dev teams are perfectly fine with the other's existence |
| KingSphinx | Oop, found it |
| MutantTurkey | looks like Vuze is bugging out with kgtk/qt engine |
| kb9vqf | yeah :-/ |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: its the fanboys not the devels |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: maybe I'll just put it on the blocklist |
| MutantTurkey | for kgtk |
| MutantTurkey | if thats the problem |
| kb9vqf | probably is... |
| MutantTurkey | I dont fancy dealing with Vuze, which means Java, which means all hell on earth. |
| kb9vqf | which is probably why it's crashing |
| kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: At least one of the KDE4 devs still has a serious grudge against us |
| KingSphinx | Wait, seriously? |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: who? |
| kb9vqf | http://blog.martin-graesslin.com/blog/2011/11/the-grass-has-always-been-greener-on-the-other-side-of-the-fence/ |
| kb9vqf | And my response is on http://trinity.etherpad.trinitydesktop.org/15 |
| MutantTurkey | oh yeah I saw that |
| MutantTurkey | is the etherpad public now? |
| kb9vqf | should be |
| MutantTurkey | okay cool |
| kb9vqf | you do have to follow the instructions on the top of each new pad to make it work though ;-) |
| kb9vqf | (follow them once for each new pad that is) |
| kb9vqf | we can still keep pads private to the team if desired |
| kb9vqf | *certain pads |
| MutantTurkey | seems like the meeting page is going well |
| MutantTurkey | I will write an announcment tomorrow (said that yesterday LOL) about it |
| MutantTurkey | 15th probably |
| kb9vqf | 15th |
| MutantTurkey | time? |
| kb9vqf | we do need to set the time |
| MutantTurkey | nes we do |
| MutantTurkey | It is a large concer. |
| kb9vqf | maybe a quick poll on the pad |
| kb9vqf | not sure, don't want to deal with it :)) |
| MutantTurkey | meh I feel like response will be crappy. I think just aiming for early in the day (2PM) EST |
| kb9vqf | Remember we have people from Eastern Europe here |
| MutantTurkey | that is why |
| kb9vqf | so don't put it at their midnight :) |
| kb9vqf | ok |
| MutantTurkey | germany is 6 hours ahead. |
| MutantTurkey | I mean, it was either midnight or 3am... |
| kb9vqf | as long as you are considering that I'll leave it up to you |
| kb9vqf | and yes, response to our meetings tends to be lousy |
| MutantTurkey | I've asked robert to run the meeting however |
| kb9vqf | Good |
| kb9vqf | was going to do that just now :-P |
| MutantTurkey | I dont know how to work the bot |
| kb9vqf | it's his bot so he should do it |
| kb9vqf | :) |
| MutantTurkey | I am hoping that we get a good turnout |
| MutantTurkey | maybe drive up some developeres and such |
| kb9vqf | would be nice |
| MutantTurkey | though our packagers seem to be taking off |
| kb9vqf | honestly our efforts should be focussed on 1.) Fixing bugs and 2.) Getting better integration in GTK/GTK3/Qt4 |
| MutantTurkey | I think a google based survey may be useful |
| kb9vqf | go for it--just remember that those who use third party tools have the responsibility of copying any data from them onto our servers ;-) |
| MutantTurkey | yep |
| MutantTurkey | how is git going? |
| kb9vqf | pretty well |
| MutantTurkey | also archlinux binaries... We need to figure out where they are going |
| kb9vqf | It's not so much the repositories themselves that need work, it's the entire build system, etc. |
| kb9vqf | to fix everything efficiently I need the exclusive lock on the repos ATM |
| MutantTurkey | understood |
| kb9vqf | I'll leave Arch up to those who have even booted it before :-P |
| MutantTurkey | I have binaries ready |
| kb9vqf | ah, cool |
| MutantTurkey | I just need server space |
| kb9vqf | no problem there |
| kb9vqf | send me a link to the tarball |
| kb9vqf | that contains your entire repository as you want it deployed |
| MutantTurkey | Ok tarball the entire tarballs? |
| kb9vqf | Basically you will have a directory under trinity/arch |
| MutantTurkey | gotta run for a minute, talk then. |
| kb9vqf | semd me a tarball with everything the way you want it there |
| kb9vqf | (not via Email, via a link) |
| kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: You can Email me the link to the tarball when you have it ready |
| MutantTurkey | won't for a few days. |
| MutantTurkey | need to make i686 builds first |
| MutantTurkey | and do some research on how it works with arch |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: it'll be quite big |
| *** KingSphinx has quit IRC |
| MutantTurkey | blech vuze isn't even in the arch repositories (because its so terrible) |
| MutantTurkey | and it just pulled in every gross gnome lib i can think of |
| MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: wait why do I see a knetworkmanager9? |
| MutantTurkey | I thought we gave up on it and decided to go with nm-applet? |

| MutantTurkey | hey :) |
| drvodka | i just read your name |
| drvodka | i'm reading the arch wiki about trinity |
| drvodka | although i'm using trinity on debian, i'm just reading around |
| MutantTurkey | yeah I am trying to pull that wiki page together. |
| MutantTurkey | what a mess... anyway |
| MutantTurkey | drvodka: any questions? :D |
| drvodka | do you know anything much about detecting what desktop is running? I came across a program today, it looks for KDE_FULL_SESSION, to decide to launch kfmclient to open a browser, i'm going to patch it to look for TDE_FULL_SESSION also, but i'm wondering what to do also as a total fallback |
| drvodka | at the moment it only detects kde and gnome |
| MutantTurkey | I think our environment variables might sitll crossover. |
| MutantTurkey | KDE_SESSION is a variable. |
| drvodka | yeah i still have a few that start KDE too |
| MutantTurkey | KDE_SESSION_UID rather. |
| MutantTurkey | what program is this? |
| MutantTurkey | j/w |
| drvodka | miro |
| drvodka | after installing trinity, the "open in web page" button for rss feed items stopped working |
| drvodka | so i fixed it for myself, i'm just thinking about submitting a patch, and the best ways |
| drvodka | it's a bit off topic here anyway i guess |
| MutantTurkey | nah not offtopic :P |
| MutantTurkey | if its related to trinity, it's on topic. |
| MutantTurkey | drvodka: I say send in the patch :P |

Also, a lot of KDE3 applications were larger than my screen and required me to hide the taskbar. o.O Though, I will likely use it on my main desktop machine just not sure about my laptop :/ |

| gryc | KingSphinx: Which trinity repo did you use? The normal one? |
| KingSphinx | Hmm? Oh, I don't have Trinity installed just yet, lol. I'm using KDE 4.7 for the time being, and... it's solid. Hasn't even given me the odd "crash-on-shutdown" bug that Ubuntu's version of KDE has. |

| KingSphinx | Though to be honest, I probably should've gone with GNOME instead of the KDE spin, Strigi's killing me here... |
| edogaa | i just disable all that |
| KingSphinx | Never said I was *enjoying* KDE 4, just that it's about the most stable I've ever seen it. :P |
| _Pete_ | hey gurus, did you notice my email about debuild problem? |
| edogaa | I'm thinking of removing KDE4 since it's so unstable |
| edogaa | or not unstable... |
| edogaa | so much as just to slow on the card I use. |
| KingSphinx | I feel your pain... installing GNOME as we speak (hey, at least GNOME Shell doesn't run a whole SQL server in the background :P) |
| edogaa | Not painful, just anoying. clutter is it? feels smoother for the time being. lol |

| tbottu | 10New TDE 3.5 bug 605 filed by mojbordel@yahoo.co.uk. |
| tbottu | 04Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=605 major, P5, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, Trinity QT3 breaks KDE4's k3b |
| * Strangelv claps |
| marek77 | :-( |
| Strangelv | Wish it went as smoothly as <duda> I've installed TDE on Scientific Linux 6.1 |
| Strangelv | ...but at least we now know abut a problem |
| marek77 | Oh the installation went smoothly, no problem with that. But there should be a note for yum based distros and people using repo priorities that you have to put trinity repo on a higher priority than the Base distro repo. |
| marek77 | I managed to move over my .kde from KDE3.5.10, changed it into .trinity and Trinity started :-) but I've read how it's supposed to co-exist with other DEs so I added KDE4 and so far seen k3b crashing |
| Strangelv | Do we have a package name collisionL |
| marek77 | for the install? |
| marek77 | it was qt3 |
| marek77 | trinity provides and requires qt3-3.3.8d-2.el6.i686 |
| marek77 | CentOS 6.0 has qt3-3.3.8b |
| rzs19 | a friend reported some issues like kdm launches kwin for a xfce session, don't know if he has reported it as bug. |
| Strangelv | "So it treated them as equivalent? |
| rzs19 | seems that kdm needs kwin? |
| Strangelv | If that's the case we probably should call ours 3.3.9 -- it's not like it has an upstream other than us anymore |
| marek77 | yum treated the version numbers as equivalent disregarding "b" and "d" at the end, I guess. And since Base had higher prio than Trinity, it was a no go. |
| Strangelv | ...or _could_ we get Nokia to accetp our patches? |
| rzs19 | patches for qt3? |
| * Strangelv nods |
| marek77 | that would need to be seen with Nokia, and looks like a clean solution :-) |
| Strangelv | TDE can't run with standard Qt3 -- there were some bugsl that got in the way, so Tim fixed the bugs with it |
| Strangelv | ...at least the relevant ones |
| marek77 | I swapped trinity and Base priorities, and it installed OK. it's just a versioning issue |
| Strangelv | So how are we breaking the Qt4 version of k3B? |
| marek77 | like this: |
| marek77 | [Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled] |
| marek77 | [KCrash handler] |
| marek77 | #6 0x0186c4d1 in QGList::append(void*) () |
| marek77 | from /usr/lib/qt-3.3/lib/libqt-mt.so.3 |
| marek77 | #7 0x0352c3ec in KUniqueApplication::delayRequest(QCString const&, QMemArray<char> const&) () from /opt/trinity/lib/libkdecore.so.4 |
| marek77 | #8 0x0352c4d5 in KUniqueApplication::process(QCString const&, QMemArray<char> const&, QCString&, QMemArray<char>&) () from /opt/trinity/lib/libkdecore.so.4 |
| marek77 | but I don't know why KDE4's k3b is calling QT3...?? |
| Strangelv | "Maybe this isl a Qt4 k3b bug... |
| Strangelv | Where is _their_ bug tracker? Fire it there too? |
| marek77 | well to me it looks like k3b is loading some library and it get the one from trinity instead of the expected qt4 (with the same name)? |
| Strangelv | "if it's a name collison then it probabyl counts as our bug |
| Strangelv | ...ypossibly a Qt3 bug |
| Strangelv | Another patch for our submission to Nokia? |
| marek77 | could post it to KDE4 too. but sad experience shows that if you're not running the latest and greatest version (and with CentOS that's never the case), you'll be ignored in the better case. |
| Strangelv | So it's up to us to work out a test case, and unfortunately I'm not flexible enough to try that right now. I'm also way behind on my effort for National Novel Writing Month and have only now worked out a show-stopping technical issue (difficulty with trying to write what could be good science fiction with editing -- make the wrong error and your entire story is garbage). |
| marek77 | use a versioning system ;-) |
| Strangelv | Doesn't wokr if the story is built upon assumption X, and assumption X turns out to be completely impossible |
| marek77 | lol |
| Strangelv | It's more of a GIGO situation |
| marek77 | thought that was quite common in SF |
| Strangelv | Bad SF, yes |
| Strangelv | Stuff that fails to be real science fiction and doesn't ewven make for structuralyl sound fantasy |
| Strangelv | obsolete science fiction is different |
| Strangelv | that still holds up as fantasy |
| Strangelv | "So wha'ts the least difficult way to test the k3B bug? |
| Strangelv | "with the lastest versions of everything? |
| marek77 | if you want to see if it's still relevant, latest versions would be best. but as a user trying trinity my issue is that I DON'T want latest, I would be on Fedora instead of CentOS... |
| marek77 | KDE4 is seriously slow on my box, that's why I'm trying to keep "KDE3.5" with Trinity |
| marek77 | I guess if k3b is broken I'll have to use some non-QT app, but finding one up to par with k3b is difficult |
| Strangelv | The latest KDE3/TDE has just come out and uses the latest unofficial Qt3. I don't know what the latest KDE4 is. |
| Strangelv | There's always the challeneg of what to do if you can't get the newer versions of whatever fork you're using. Until a couple of months ago the Moon Society's infrastructure was running on a server running FreeBSD 4 |
| Strangelv | I probably don't need to describe the sorts of problems we were regularly running into... |
| Strangelv | It's why the wikis ended up on a different server with different provider |
| marek77 | well on CentOS6 it's 4.3.4, on my work Ubuntu Lucid it's 4.5.3, and KDE4 website says 4.7.3 |
| marek77 | argh |
| Strangelv | "I'm doubting they'll be motivated to fix "KDE" 4.3 |
| marek77 | exactly |
| Strangelv | ...but if we can at least confirm that the problem still exists, we can keep people running versions after the fix from rutnning into the problem |
| marek77 | just between 4.3 and 4.5, k3b goes from v1.0.5 to 2.0.1 |
| marek77 | major release.. |
| Strangelv | ...although if Debian is still running 4.3 they might be motivated o fix it |
| Strangelv | which one did you find the problem with? |
| marek77 | KDE4.3.4 k3b 1.0.5 |
| Strangelv | "We can hope that it's fixed with k3b 2, but it's probabyl important to check to make sure |
| marek77 | yep |

| rzs19 | and if you select trinity, what happened excactly? |
| marek77 | I'm sorry I got frustrated and removed most of packages, can't reproduce anymore. But the splash didn't appear and I had a simple X window (a bit like xmessage) with an error message saying it couldn't find k___<something> |
| *** vhumpa has joined #trinity-desktop |

| gcsimon | in his german post, he is highlighting the new plasma desktop... i had it installed a while back, and it takes only "one single wrong mouseclick" to make your taskbar disappear. |
| MutantTurkey | the patch there should allow it to at least work well |
| * Strangelv wonders about the feasibility of a rewrite of Kickoff |
| MutantTurkey | I was rewriting it to use the regular kbutton class but my development got sidetracked with the release |
| rzs19 | gcsimon: that was the one-klick-taskbar-disappear-feature its like the arrow from kicker :D |
| MutantTurkey | Strangelv: no the menu is OK, the button class sucks. |
| MutantTurkey | I have it rewritten, and it's almost there :p |

| MutantTurkey | h31: it's not in the nightly builds |
| MutantTurkey | I think I want to do the patch all at once. |

| MutantTurkey | rzs19: you know how to work with bluetooth?!?! |
| MutantTurkey | we need a bluetooth developer quite badly. |
| MutantTurkey | gcsimon: I am rereading his post, it's quite mundane |
| gcsimon | kde and bluetooth always failed for me. but gnome had a nice aplet which did the magic |
| *** vhumpa1 has quit IRC |
| rzs19 | well, i don't think that this would be the solution you want to have. i'am a python developer, i use kde bindings and bluez. i have used bluez some time ago. after that, i will try to code better c++ and implement the same in c++. |
| rzs19 | so filetransfer over bluetooth shouldwork, but thats no magic... |
| * Strangelv looks forwart to looking at TDE Kickoff and seeing if it's an improvement over Kicker. He remembersl desperately wanting an alternative to Kicker more than six years ago, but over the years he's gotten used to its limitations. It has a lot of features he doesn't use becoues they result in a menru bar with no room for anything at all |

| MutantTurkey | I mean a kio plugin is nice becaue it is small |
| gcsimon | HID over bluetooth? |
| gcsimon | for keyboard/mice |
| MutantTurkey | that too. |
| gcsimon | that was my primary use-case |
| MutantTurkey | how did KDE3.5 originally have bluetooth support? |
| Strangelv | Remember boys and girls, it doesn't matter how sluggish, incomplete, annoying, or otherwise unduly difficult to KDE4 is, you can't compare it to TDE/KDE3 except to say that TDE/KDE3 is inferior becuse it doesn't have this gee whiz feature everyone simply must be using or they're yesterday's rubbish. I need to stop reading this. |
| MutantTurkey | (I barely ever use bluetooth, only once for a mouse) |
| rzs19 | don't know i primary used it for filetransfer :) |
| MutantTurkey | Strangelv: except that it's 4.7 and they still are fixing compositor issues LOL |
| MutantTurkey | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bluetooth_profile |
| MutantTurkey | maybe relevant |
| MutantTurkey | thats the spec |
| MutantTurkey | 28 different things. |
| * Strangelv doesn't know what he would be running if it wasn't for TDE. He might be able to run 3.5.190 for as far as Meerkat, and perhas after that maybe XFCE... |
| MutantTurkey | if someone implemented that. HOLY CRAP it would be cool |
| gcsimon | i believe there was an applet. kbluetooth |
| MutantTurkey | xfce is like gnome2 but worse.... |
| Strangelv | s/3.5.190/3.5.10/ |
| rzs19 | much todo :D |
| gcsimon | i tried gnome..... :( |
| Strangelv | Yes, but it's still being supported. Q: DOes it try to protect users from information they really do need to know? |
| MutantTurkey | Q: xfce? |
| MutantTurkey | okay so lets talk more about bluetooth. |
| MutantTurkey | rzs19: how much is covered by bluez? |
| MutantTurkey | my guess is that we basically just need to write a bluetooth frontend |
| MutantTurkey | libbluez probably covers everything |
| MutantTurkey | relevant http://www.bluez.org/ |
| rzs19 | *need to try kbluetooth* hmm,don't know, its a long time i have worked with bluez, could only remember thath i have build a console app for filetransfer. |
| Strangelv | "Yes, Gnome 2 does/did that -- one of the main reasons why it proved to be a grating experienec for me, if pleasant by comparison to my experienec with KDE 4 |
| MutantTurkey | rzs19: do you have a link to kblueooth? |
| MutantTurkey | I dont seem to remember seeing it |
| gcsimon | i had it on an openSuSE system (10.1) |
| gcsimon | but i have no linkt o it |
| MutantTurkey | okya |
| rzs19 | i think it was alsoe build on top of bluez? |
| MutantTurkey | I wonder if someone can drudge up the sources from the dreaded KDE:KDE3 repository |
| MutantTurkey | rzs19: yes |
| gcsimon | yep |
| MutantTurkey | bluez is the kernel stack. |
| MutantTurkey | everything is written on top of it for bluetooth |
| rzs19 | i hope i can write a small solution next week, taht will work. |
| gcsimon | google has a few links to kbluetooth |
| MutantTurkey | http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/KDE3/openSUSE_11.4/src/kde3-kdebluetooth-1.0.8-172.1.src.rpm |
| MutantTurkey | got it |
| MutantTurkey | rzs19: maybe try porting that |
| rzs19 | well, i think my c++ is too bad. but now i have motivation to learn it better, becouse i want help :) |
| Strangelv | Are there sources of stock code that we could hamter into shape? |
| Strangelv | Or maybe hammer? |
| gcsimon | careful. openSuSE 10.4 does not ship kde3 anymore. the link you got could be of kde4-kbluetooth |
| rzs19 | or "i want to help" ... whattever... seems that i alos have to learn englisch ;D |
| MutantTurkey | gcsimon: no that is the KDE:KDE3 repository |
| MutantTurkey | maintained by our lovely collaborator, Ilya |
| MutantTurkey | maybe Xu_R can explain |
| MutantTurkey | basically ilya maintains unoffical repos for it, |
| gcsimon | ah. my mistake. sry |
| MutantTurkey | yep |
| MutantTurkey | does someone want to take a look at the link |
| MutantTurkey | try and compile it maybe? |
| * Strangelv has yet to do anything successfully with an RPM package |
| gcsimon | i have a few opensuse boxes here |
| gcsimon | 11.4 mainly |
| gcsimon | i could try. but i never did any development with kde3 or qt3 |
| MutantTurkey | rzs19: maybe take a loot at it at least. |
| MutantTurkey | its just a source tarball afaik |
| gcsimon | i got it unpacked |
| gcsimon | inside is a tar.gz with the source |
| gcsimon | someone want to have it? |
| _Pete_ | after couple of days using, starting relove kde3 again |
| MutantTurkey | gcsimon: I would |
| MutantTurkey | though I can just do the rpm as well |
| _Pete_ | this is blazing fast compared to gnome and even xfce |
| gcsimon | i can upload it to my server |
| gcsimon | www.brennecke-it.net/simon/linux/kdebluetooth-1.0_beta8.tar.bz2 |
| MutantTurkey | at 11kb/s it will take a long while |
| MutantTurkey | _Pete_: indeed :) |
| gcsimon | ^^ |
| MutantTurkey | this dumb 3G connection stinks inside the chem labs. |
| _Pete_ | MutantTurkey: yeah, even with my machine its really noticeable |
| gcsimon | no w-lan? |
| drvodka | you're all making me think about bluetooth now too, i haven't tried it yet |
| MutantTurkey | _Pete_: I have a new machine (i5) and it's noticeable. |
| MutantTurkey | gcsimon: our school wifi is terrible, so tethering it is the solution |
| _Pete_ | yep, this is i7 |
| MutantTurkey | gcsimon: school wifi doesnt play with linux well |
| MutantTurkey | drvodka: are you a bluetooth junkie? |
| MutantTurkey | rzs19: my guess for kde3-bluetooth is that the API's a totally borked |
| MutantTurkey | because bluez has probably changed quite a bit. |
| drvodka | MutantTurkey: not really, but i have one for transferring photos from my phone occasionally, it kind of worked in kde4 :O it would just crash after every image |
| rzs19 | so it should not be a problem to fix it, or? :) |
| MutantTurkey | rzs19: so it should be maybe difficult |
| MutantTurkey | but not as hard as doing from scratch |
| gcsimon | i used obexftp for that |
| gcsimon | kbluetooth/kio_bluez never worked for me |
| MutantTurkey | well lets get it working! :p |
| gcsimon | currently i try to get all includes/libs together to make it compile on my TDE box here |
| *** MutantTurkey has quit IRC |
| rzs19 | this week i have no time, becouse i travel to austria. on friday(on the long train ride) i will try to get a working bluez kio plugin, after that, i could take a look on kbluetooth(if no other will do this before me) |
| *** MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop |
| drvodka | hmm |
| drvodka | Configuration file "/home/user/.kde/share/config/bluedevilmonolithicrc" not writable. |
| drvodka | Please contact your system administrator. |
| MutantTurkey | drvodka: are the permissions funky? |
| marek77 | bluetooth seriously sucks. no matter desktop or even OS |
| marek77 | blue tooth of PAIN |
| gcsimon | gnome got it working, but i agree it it quite bugged |
| drvodka | MutantTurkey: possibily, that config directory is set to 700 |
| MutantTurkey | marek77: yep |
| *** h31 has joined #trinity-desktop |
| MutantTurkey | drvodka: what else is set in the area? |
| MutantTurkey | chown it maybe |
| drvodka | i just chown to 755, now the bluedevil starts, gonna test it now |
| h31 | Hello, It's me again :) What package is required to add ssl support to kmail and konversation? |
| h31 | Also, how to fix an incorrect codepage of IMAP folders? |
| MutantTurkey | drvodka: what is bluedevil? |
| gcsimon | h31: openssl? i did'nt install anything specific |
| drvodka | MutantTurkey: that's what installed when i installed kdebluetooth |
| MutantTurkey | drvodka: on what system? |
| MutantTurkey | is this kde4 or 3? |
| drvodka | trinity on debian wheezy |
| drvodka | but maybe it pulled from kde4 packages.... |
| MutantTurkey | who provided kdeblueooth? from our repos? |
| drvodka | ah, yeah it must be a kde4 package from squeeze/wheezy |
| MutantTurkey | the package should be named trinity-X |
| gcsimon | drvodka: what configure options did you use? |
| MutantTurkey | yeah :p |
| MutantTurkey | whoops |
| MutantTurkey | anyone know how to debug Java? |
| MutantTurkey | I don't even know where to start. |
| drvodka | what package should i install then? i can't find a bluetooth one for trinity |
| MutantTurkey | it doesnt exist. |
| *** marek77 has quit IRC |
| MutantTurkey | thats why were having _this_ conversation |
| drvodka | ok |
| MutantTurkey | it broke some time ago (3.5.11?) and nobody had bluetooth knowledge to fi |
| gcsimon | yeah bluedevil sounds suspiciously like kde4 |
| MutantTurkey | most people dont even use / have bluetooth devices |
| gcsimon | i think this is, because it is quite hard to find good software to use it |
| rzs19 | http://img26.imageshack.us/img26/7606/tbar5.png - slowly it works :) |
| gcsimon | i use obexftp to transfer vcards from my desktop addressbook (kontact) to my phone |
| _Pete_ | MutantTurkey: debug java? |
| MutantTurkey | yes |
| _Pete_ | start java with proper parameters to enable debuging |
| MutantTurkey | someone reported Vuze(java app) is crashing because of qt-gtk-engine |
| MutantTurkey | so I am tryng to debug it |
| _Pete_ | then use some IDE to connect the running process |
| _Pete_ | MutantTurkey: it was me who reported |
| MutantTurkey | okay :) |
| _Pete_ | it's wierd |
| MutantTurkey | yeah gtk-qt-engine is also my dealio along with kickoff |
| MutantTurkey | trying to port it to gtk3 as well. |
| _Pete_ | as if I do ssh -X localhost |
| _Pete_ | and then start vuze |
| _Pete_ | it goes ok |
| _Pete_ | i suspect it's envinronment problem |
| MutantTurkey | no it makes sense |
| MutantTurkey | _Pete_: thats the environmental variable maybes then? |
| MutantTurkey | i mean vuze probably makes weird calls |
| MutantTurkey | also, I hate vuze :p |
| MutantTurkey | bug = lowest priority of all time. |
| *** Z_God has joined #trinity-desktop |
| MutantTurkey | but actually I just dontknow how to deal with java |
| _Pete_ | I think it's not java issue |
| MutantTurkey | _Pete_: no, I know it's not |
| MutantTurkey | but I just don't know how to find a backtrace or anything. |
| _Pete_ | crash happens before java is started? |
| _Pete_ | took a little look the starting script |
| _Pete_ | it does some wierd stuff |
| MutantTurkey | yeah |
| MutantTurkey | I am just interested in the calls. |
| _Pete_ | I guess the crash happens somewhere there in script |
| _Pete_ | before it gets to point to do: java .... |
| MutantTurkey | it makes a call at8 $START_CLASS "$@" |
| MutantTurkey | 189 |
| h31 | Oh, I opened konqueror setting, cryptography tab, tried to load OpenSSL, konqueror was not able to do it. |
| MutantTurkey | 188 $START_CLASS "$@" |
| gcsimon | h31: openssl installed? |
| * Strangelv tries to avoid ranting about the brick walls he ran into trying to port a project from C++ to Java. He's not done anything with either langage since. |
| MutantTurkey | _Pete_: I dont know where it's going from there. |
| MutantTurkey | s15y: java is not good i think |
| MutantTurkey | it has it's place in certain situations, but mostly I think it is good to avoid. |
| _Pete_ | MutantTurkey: which script are you talking? |
| MutantTurkey | especially for performance critical things like torrenting... |
| h31 | gcsimon: of course |
| *** Xu_R|School has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Strangelv | I didn't get far enough to run into performance issues. I was trying to use higher than double float precision and had a complicated class structure to port over. Java has some patronizing features that can become an unbelievable pain. |
| _Pete_ | so has c++ |
| drvodka | well, i installed every bluetooth package i could find, and somehow i can send/recieve files ok, so i'm happy |
| gcsimon | h31: "openssl" on console works? |
| Strangelv | I've basically nt esd anything but Python or Javascript for several years. I'm considering learning PHP to port something I wrote in Javascript that needs access to features no browser will allow with javascript |
| h31 | gcsimon: prints "OpenSSL>" |
| gcsimon | h31: good |
| _Pete_ | MutantTurkey: /usr/lib/java-wrappers/java-wrappers.sh |
| _Pete_ | are you talking about this? |
| gcsimon | h31: any specific message from konqueror, why it cannot load openssl? |
| h31 | gcsimon: libssl was not found or successfully loaded. |
| h31 | Nothing more |
| gcsimon | h31: maybe wrong architecture? like konqeror is 64bit and the libssl is 32bit? |
| gcsimon | h31: or is it a 32bit only box? |
| MutantTurkey | _Pete_: /usr/bin/vuze |
| h31 | gcsimon: only 32 bit |
| Xu_R|School | kb9vqf: you there? >_>" |
| MutantTurkey | "gone away for now" |
| gcsimon | h31: please run "ldd -r /usr/lib64/libssl3.so", does it report any unresolved symbols or something? |
| MutantTurkey | Xu_R|School: whats up doode |
| gcsimon | h31: sry. /lib/ not "/lib64/" |
| gcsimon | h31: my box is 64bit |
| h31 | gcsimon: there are no libssl3.so, only libssl.so.0.9.8 |
| gcsimon | h31: hm. what distribution do you use? |
| Xu_R|School | hey MutantTurkey |
| h31 | gcsimon: ubuntu 11.10 |
| MutantTurkey | Xu_R|School: gotta send out the reminder today for the meetin |

| * Strangelv incrasingly suspects the need for a 3.5.13.1 release |
| KingSphinx | I'm just hoping that the Fedora version isn't as buggy as the Ubuntu build... |
| * kb9vqf notes that such a release would push 3.5.14 out by several months at least |
| KingSphinx | Though, at this rate, as long as it runs acceptably well, I'll take it; Fedora's given me nothing but grief with GNOME Shell |
| KingSphinx | Hardware acceleration seems to be either poorly-implemented or just plain broken because stuff as simple as drawing the volume indicator if I raise/lower the volume takes forever. |
| drvodka | are the debian and ubuntu builds essentially identical? |
| kb9vqf | they are close, but by no means identical |
| KingSphinx | I think there's some slight differences, I think it has to do with how the Ubuntu build takes after Kubuntu, while every other version is essentially "stock" TDE |
| kb9vqf | also, each set if binary packages is actually built on the distribution and version mentioned, so Ubuntu Maverick packages are actually built on a clean install of Ubuntu Maverick, etc. |
| drvodka | ok, just curious because it seems to be working very nicely here on debian, it felt like it took a second or two longer to boot up than kde3.5 official, but everything else seems fast, and working so far |
| drvodka | start up, not boot up |
| kb9vqf | actually I think I know where the speed difference comes from ;-) |
| KingSphinx | Is it possible to get "stock" TDE without the Kubuntu stuff on Ubuntu? |
| kb9vqf | kwin is preloaded during kdm startup |
| KingSphinx | Without building from source, I mean. |
| kb9vqf | hmmm....never had that request before....there are patches in the Ubuntu versions, so your only recourse would be Debian or build from source |
| kb9vqf | you should be able to install the Debian version on Ubuntu, but I have not tried it before |
| drvodka | any time i have a dull moment in my work, i just sit and press the 'home' icon, and marvel at how konq file browser is there instantly, unlike kde4, tears of joy |
| KingSphinx | Hmm, figures. :/ Oh well, kind of a moot point for me now seeing as I'm back on Fedora and all. |
| kb9vqf | glad to hear someone likes our work :)) |
| kb9vqf | KingSphinx: Ubuntu users tend to put up with a lot of patched/modified software, so I kind of kept that tradition alive ;-) |
| kb9vqf | the main changes are in default settings |
| KingSphinx | The only thing in Fedora that I truly feel needs to die in a fire is SELinux. :P |
| kb9vqf | and sudo-related stuff |
| kb9vqf | Yes, most desktop systems are not bank vaults :-P |
| kb9vqf | SELinux is quite overkill on the desktop |
| KingSphinx | SELinux has given me nothing but problems, it wouldn't even let me run GNOME Shell! |
| kb9vqf | heh |
| drvodka | haha wow |
| kb9vqf | Seriously though, it is designed for securing servers |
| kb9vqf | not for desktop usage |
| kb9vqf | and apparently it wants to enforce its design! |
| KingSphinx | I had to let SELinux puke up an error message, then work around that, open up a terminal, then blindly type "yum groupinstall lxde" since it was hidden behind that "Something has gone wrong!" fullscreen message. |
| kb9vqf | oh fun |
| kb9vqf | sounds like the type of really, really bad design I am seeing way too often in Linux these days |
| kb9vqf | IMHO the major distributions should be hiring a usability team and obeying everything they say ;-) |
| KingSphinx | then logout, enter LXDE (really quite light, only an 18 MB install), and completely disable SELinux. All this just to use my default desktop. |
| drvodka | i was just reading some results on the lastest ubuntu usability tests, where they gave ubuntu to some random people, and asked them to perform various normal tasks, got their opinion on various interface things |
| drvodka | it's good to see someone doing that |
| KingSphinx | SEL really should be an install-time option, not included by default... |
| KingSphinx | Besides, who uses Fedora in a production environment? CentOS or RHEL's more suited for that... |

| n0xx0ff | hi... |
| n0xx0ff | i'm trying to install trinity on oneric... dpkg is trying to remove sudo... is this normal? :| |
| KingSphinx | Yes, it's fine. You'll need to enable root, then use root to install Trinity. Don't worry, sudo-trinity will function exactly the same. |
| KingSphinx | Just remember to lock up root after you've finished. :P |
| n0xx0ff | nice... thnx :) |
| KingSphinx | I use Fedora, so I can use root right out of the box. Not that Ubuntu's approach is bad or anything, I just find using root a bit more convenient than prefacing everything with sudo. |
| n0xx0ff | sudo bash |
| n0xx0ff | ;) |
| *** chaky has joined #trinity-desktop |
| n0xx0ff | i soo wanna check this out... you guys been running trinity with compiz? how does if fare in comparison to kde4+effects? |
| KingSphinx | I haven't run it with Compiz yet, so I wouldn't know. The only time I ever really bothered with Trinity+Compiz, it somehow borked my display driver. |
| KingSphinx | That was back with Ubuntu 10.10 though, so it may be better now. |
| n0xx0ff | : No space left on device << lol... :( |
| n0xx0ff | damn |
| KingSphinx | No space left? How small is your hard drive?! O_o |
| n0xx0ff | ... my partition is rather small actually.... plus my apt cache is full of junk... it's just a setback... ;) |
| KingSphinx | Ah... |
| KingSphinx | By the way, TDE's gone from putting sound only through my main sound card in Kubuntu, to no sound at all in Fedora. |
| KingSphinx | Other than that, it actually runs rather smoothly, the only glitch of note so far is that the Keramik theme's window border is still missing. |

| * Strangelv needns to stop seeing things at Zweiblucken flash before his eyes like it's right ouside his window. That was moer than 20 years ago and much of that infrastructuer no longer exists |
| Strangelv | ...or maybe none of it still exists... |
| gcsimon | don't know much about zweibrücken - 100km away from my location, and i have lttle business there ;) |
| Strangelv | I don't remember much there and I was there for more than two years |
| Strangelv | What I do remember -- most of the people theer hated the air base becausoe the F-4s were noisy. Almost none of them could speak English despite what I'd been told (I regularly got in troubel attempting to figure things out with what little Deutsche I could speak -- one conversation the person helpfully threw in the English words right and left, but i still got lost)... mostly agricultural |
| Strangelv | The shops closed early even on long saturday |
| Strangelv | Q: How are you supposed to do any shopping whene verything closes befoer you get off of work? |
| gcsimon | yeah, that problem sill persists, but the english speaking population increased. today everyone lerns english at school |
| gcsimon | (mor eor less, as you can see ;-) ) |
| Strangelv | Evidently in the 1980s and erlier they didn't in some areas... I can only wish that I'd been taught something when I was young enough to learn something besides English |
| Strangelv | Bilungual education was only there for people woh already knew how to speak Spanish. I need to not get started on that... |
| Strangelv | "if English is hde default second language to learn, what's the nextn one in line? French (predecessor to English in this regard)? Mandarin? Japanese? Latin (not much is written in it these days)? Greek? |
| Strangelv | Mandarin wouldn't have been a serious choice when I was in school. It took awhile for Deng to fix what he was able to fix before becoming the problemhimself by 1989 or so |
| gcsimon | french or spanish, that's all that gets offered at school here (opional) |
| Strangelv | "Spanish I must admit has a gob of speakers |

| aquarius_ | i've tried TDE 3.5.13.. you were right. A few bugs. Kicker crashes. |
| aquarius_ | but would be nice if you brought it back. |
| aquarius_ | to normal that is. |
| *** fos has quit IRC |

| MobileTurkey | rzs19: Gobble Gobble |
| aquarius_ | yep |
| aquarius_ | hey Turkey :) |
| aquarius_ | it does... even KingSphinx said it... |
| aquarius_ | i went to check.... yep, crashes. |
| aquarius_ | usually when you move the mouse over "System" in menu |
| aquarius_ | but there's a few other glitches as well. |
| jumpship | Just out of curiosity, what other glitches? |

| drvodka | not too much wrong with ubuntu, as long as i remove all the default settings |
| *** schreiberstein has joined #trinity-desktop |
| jumpship | Someone must like it, isn't it the most used desktop distro, or something |
| drvodka | i think it just slipped into second after mint |
| drvodka | but that's recent downloads, not total |
| *** ZZRX has quit IRC |
| drvodka | i guess i missed the memo about mint, a few people i know installed it recently and removed ubuntu |
| jumpship | Isn't mint based on Ubuntu? Can't remember. |
| drvodka | they must have had a good promotional drive |
| drvodka | oh yeah, i looked it up |
| drvodka | didn't know they are based on ubuntu |
| *** ZZRX has joined #trinity-desktop |
| rzs19 | well, there must be more differences as speed in kde3 vs kde4. |
| jumpship | If Ubuntu is for people who can't config debian, then I guess mint is for those who can't config Ubuntu |
| drvodka | hah |
| rzs19 | LOL @jumpship |
| drvodka | so who is debian for, people who didn't want to set their CFLAGs to stun and build gentoo? |
| drvodka | before i used debian, i used slackware |
| rzs19 | we should use LFS to get true power |
| aquarius_ | that's the problem, it's just too most used :) |
| aquarius_ | i don't wanna be another ubuntist |
| drvodka | i buildt a little mini distro recently, just to play, it runs ECL lisp as the shell |
| aquarius_ | besides... it's pretty slow compared to Debian. |
| aquarius_ | it starts up the same slow as Win 7 |
| rzs19 | some one knows the spinoff "lesbian" from debian? |
| drvodka | hah nope |
| aquarius_ | in fact.. it reminds me of Win 7 which is quite disturbing. |
| jumpship | I like Debian, it fits me |
| aquarius_ | me too. |
| aquarius_ | but got issues. |
| aquarius_ | audio still... it's not pulseaudio, it's not alsa... it's just kernel incompatibility with my hardware. |
| drvodka | my only issue with debian really is i tend to be in all repos at once because stuff is very slow to get to stable and even testing sometimes |
| jumpship | Issues come and go no matter what you use |
| aquarius_ | by me it's been quite persistent my friend |
| drvodka | so i tend to have to do a lot of massaging in aptitude to not have broken packages |
| aquarius_ | you remember yourself |
| rzs19 | i like the display of the arch boot process its clearer than debians |
| drvodka | i'm trying to massage amarok-trinity right now |
| aquarius_ | is it possible to install proprietary drivers for my audio? |
| aquarius_ | cause i dunno even what my audio is. |
| drvodka | this is much easier than when i was still using kde3 from lenny while mostly in squeeze/wheezy |
| jumpship | I pretty much stick to stable, odd little bits from testing or sid, depending on how long it's been since release |
| jumpship | Are proprietary driver for your sound available? |
| aquarius_ | no clue |
| aquarius_ | all i know it's ATI HDA.. |
| drvodka | perhaps you need the firmware packages from non-free? lots of the old blobs in debian are now removed from the kernel and put in non-free |
| jumpship | Intel HDA? |
| aquarius_ | yeah.. but i think Alsa covers it up |
| aquarius_ | so unless your kernel is up-to-date you'd have troubles. |
| aquarius_ | so bummer. I can't manually update it. |
| jumpship | Thats the real problem with all audio on linux, alsa's a mess, and everyone and the grandma is trying to fix it without fixing it |
| aquarius_ | yeah, but does anyone have the same prob i have? |
| aquarius_ | i guess not |
| drvodka | hey i've got an idea, let's make a whole new audio subsystem that's even worse rather than fixing the old ones! |
| aquarius_ | hah |
| jumpship | I think your problem is a mix of a lot of things at once |
| aquarius_ | well yeah, but on Ubuntu it's alright. How about that? |
| aquarius_ | that's why i hate it even more! It works! |
| aquarius_ | :) |
| Z_God | aquarius_: what problem do you have? |
| aquarius_ | hey Z_God |
| jumpship | They've put a lot of work into pulse I bet |
| aquarius_ | didn't i tell you? |
| Z_God | I don't remember |
| aquarius_ | pulse is also out of date in Squeeze |
| Z_God | but you wrote you had an alsa problem |
| aquarius_ | you can't upgrade it unless your kernel is newer |
| aquarius_ | no, it's not only that. It's overall audio prob with old kernel i think. My audio requires the 3rd one probably. |
| Z_God | pulse depends on a special kernel version?? |
| Z_God | are you using ubuntu or debian? |
| aquarius_ | i guess so, because in Ubuntu it's Pulse 1.x or something and in debian it's 0.x |
| aquarius_ | right now Ubuntu, but just for experiment |
| Z_God | you can install newer kernels through a ppa |
| aquarius_ | how much newer? :) |
| Z_God | for debian, installing a newer kernel should work as well |
| Z_God | dunno, I suggest looking it up ;) |
| aquarius_ | i know, however by the way we with jumpship were fidgeting with sound i didn't know that |
| aquarius_ | by the time* |
| aquarius_ | well yeah, i'll try it. |
| Z_God | this is the easiest in general |
| aquarius_ | sure... we'll see. |
| drvodka | why use pulseaudio? i tried it once a while back, and it didn't work for me, but i don't really understand any advantage |
| MobileTurkey | pulse audio has some advantages. |
| MobileTurkey | (arguable ones) |
| * Z_God never tried it either |
| aquarius_ | it works for me, but not much better. The effect is.... it routes the sound a tiny bit better but it "swallows" some signals |
| gcsimon | pulseaudio has network support |
| aquarius_ | in latest ubuntu PA works flawlessly. |
| Z_God | gcsimon: yeah that is cool |
| aquarius_ | older versions suck. |
| MobileTurkey | per application volume control, networking, lowish latency |
| aquarius_ | that's the difference. |
| MobileTurkey | multi soundcards, bluetooth audio, equalization |
| drvodka | oh yeah, that per application volume control was pretty cool actually |
| MobileTurkey | sample conversion |
| MobileTurkey | all things that I am almost sure alsa and jackd can do.. |
| Z_God | alsa has a bluetooth module |
| aquarius_ | Alsa works for some people too. |
| aquarius_ | i know one guy, he installed slackware. No PA. Only Alsa. No probs. |
| Z_God | and I don't know what multi soundscards means |
| drvodka | i only use alsa here on debian, never any sound issues |
| Z_God | I use multiple devices as well with plain alsa |
| aquarius_ | so... guys.. it's all very confusing, all i know that in order to get rid of the most probs we have to get the freshest kernels possible. |
| drvodka | the only special thing i want is low latency, but the latency is not bad enough to really worry about |
| drvodka | there aren't really enough good music production programs anyway so i do most of that on a windows box still |
| aquarius_ | drvodka, what audio do you have? |
| drvodka | alsa, and a soundblaster 5.1 digital something something card |
| aquarius_ | ahh.. well that explains it |
| jumpship | with the emu10k or whatever it's called? |
| MobileTurkey | drvodka: into production? |
| MobileTurkey | me too :) |
| aquarius_ | i have Intel HDA and it gives me hard times. |
| MobileTurkey | but seriously linux has TON of stuff |
| rzs19 | pulseaudioworks over network, or couldwork over network. |
| MobileTurkey | jackd does it nicely |
| drvodka | MobileTurkey: yeah, just a hobby really, i'm still using reason 2 on XP mostly |
| Z_God | aquarius_: what is the problem you have? |
| MobileTurkey | check out ardour (3 is in beta with midi editing and awesome new stuff) |
| gcsimon | aquarius_: but intel HDA ist well supported amoung newer kernels |
| aquarius_ | the thing is, nobody could help me fixing my prob :) Nobody even knows about it. |
| Z_God | normally you don't need a new kernel |
| MobileTurkey | then some plgunis and a synth? it's awesome. |
| gcsimon | aquarius_: never had trouble with it on my boxes |
| aquarius_ | gcsimon, yeah, and that means i have to use Ubuntu. But i don't wanna :) |
| aquarius_ | Z_God, ok.. here goes |
| gcsimon | aquarius_: i used opensuse 9.x to 10.4 before |
| aquarius_ | Z_God, playback gets muted/run over by some particular apps |
| gcsimon | aquarius_: what kerbel version do you have? |
| *** Lego has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Z_God | aquarius_: what apps? |
| Z_God | what happens exactly? |
| aquarius_ | gcsimon, right now i'm on Ubuntu, but on Debian i had just the base one, 2.6.32 |
| aquarius_ | Z_God, many, but those that i tried were Skype, Wine and Audacity |
| gcsimon | aquarius_: thats recent enough for intel hda. |
| aquarius_ | Z_God, they just jamm the sound if any other playback on. |
| aquarius_ | gcsimon, what do you mean? |
| Z_God | aquarius_: the problem is that you're not using dmix for those apps |
| aquarius_ | Z_God, for example i'm playing music, alright? And without switching it off i run skype and it just cuts it off |
| Z_God | you need to set all apps to the default device |
| gcsimon | aquarius_: intel hda should be well supported with kernel 2.6.32 |
| aquarius_ | Z_God, , someone has told me that already, but i dunno how to use dmix |
| Z_God | in those programs set your device to "default" |
| Z_God | and it will use dmix |
| drvodka | in a lot of programs it has an output setting, it will probably be at "default" now |
| aquarius_ | gcsimon, well it's not apparently. At least not without some extra settings, some asoundrc.conf stuff etc etc etc |
| Z_God | do not set it to smth like hw:0,0 |
| drvodka | but default isn't always dmix |
| aquarius_ | Z_God, well.. actually it was hw:0,0 exactly. |
| MobileTurkey | dmix is grea t:) |
| Z_God | drvodka: it is when your card needs it |
| Z_God | aquarius_: that's the problem then |
| jumpship | I never got dmix to work automatically either, Intel HDA here too, but dmix does work, but had to set it up manually |
| aquarius_ | Z_God, well, what else do i write down there? |
| Z_God | if you set one app to use hw:0,0 it will block all other apps & dmix from using it |
| aquarius_ | hw:0,1? hw:0,2? maybe.. hw:0,2042042+E? |
| gcsimon | aquarius_: well i have NO IDEA of what yast did to the config files, but it always works out of the box |
| Z_God | use default instead |
| aquarius_ | gcsimon, that's the thing, it never worked "out of the box" |
| drvodka | some other programs i hav to set too, liek mplayer always wants to try oss first, and if it gets it, it locks audio for other apps, so i have to set -ao alsa |
| aquarius_ | sorry about that, but it just didn't. |
| aquarius_ | always same shit |
| *** schreiberstein has quit IRC |
| aquarius_ | Wine always jamms everything, and you can't do much settings in it. |
| Z_God | don't use oss basically |
| drvodka | in winecfg there is a setting for alsa too, i've had to set that also |
| aquarius_ | should i be worried about every goddamn app? |
| Z_God | configure your apps to use alsa |
| aquarius_ | ah.. |
| aquarius_ | i see. |
| Z_God | ubuntu disables oss in newer versions now |
| aquarius_ | ok then.. i'll get one more time on Debian... |
| Z_God | you can also unload oss in debian |
| aquarius_ | Z_God, listen.. when i get back could you help me out a bit? |
| Z_God | aquarius_: a newer kernel won't help you at all |
| Z_God | sure |
| gcsimon | aquarius_: are there truly apps out, that still use OSS? |
| aquarius_ | Z_God, alright... thanks for letting know |
| drvodka | gmm, Z_God that sounds a good plan actually, could i just add snd_pcm_oss to my blacklist? |
| Z_God | gcsimon: almost all, there's only ALSA on linux |
| aquarius_ | gcsimon, i dunno, but looking at my prob apparently there are. |
| Z_God | drvodka: yes but I think there's actually a line that loads it |
| aquarius_ | Debian.. here i come |
| aquarius_ | :) |
| aquarius_ | but first... |
| aquarius_ | damn... i feel like shit.... got some f..ng flu.. |

| _Pete_ | MutantTurkey: hey, you remember the wine thing I ranted yesterday? |
| MutantTurkey | eh |
| MutantTurkey | nope |
| MutantTurkey | oh wait maybe |
| MutantTurkey | sorry terrible memory + been reading about wine all day. |
| MutantTurkey | trying to get my age of empires to play :P |
| _Pete_ | 17:16 < MobileTurkey> _Pete_: is that possible? maybe your path is wrong, or wine is installed somewhere else. |
| MutantTurkey | is it so/ |
| MutantTurkey | ? |
| _Pete_ | well |
| MutantTurkey | did you do what i suggested? |
| _Pete_ | whhen I did dig it deeper |
| MutantTurkey | go on... |
| _Pete_ | looks like after installing trinity |
| _Pete_ | to my 64bit machine |
| _Pete_ | the 32bit programs wont run anymore |
| MutantTurkey | well they normally wouldn't |
| MutantTurkey | unless you had the compatabilty libraries |
| _Pete_ | yes I do |
| MutantTurkey | (I know archlinux makes this easy - not sure elsewhere) |
| _Pete_ | and do before and after |
| MutantTurkey | how do we know it is trinity related? |
| _Pete_ | that is the wierdest bit |
| MutantTurkey | do you have another DE to test? |
| _Pete_ | I know it from that |
| _Pete_ | I have not installed enything than trinity |
| _Pete_ | and before that it worked |
| _Pete_ | after it didnt |
| MutantTurkey | it is possible that during the install it uninstalled some required libraries or installed some bad ones |
| MutantTurkey | what happens if you run a 32bit app from a console? |
| MutantTurkey | tty' |
| _Pete_ | the same |
| MutantTurkey | errors? |
| _Pete_ | it just says file format not eregonzieed |
| _Pete_ | e.g. the system really knows that |
| MutantTurkey | hmmmm |
| MutantTurkey | what distro is this? |
| _Pete_ | ubuntu |
| MutantTurkey | _Pete_: I have 32bit apps running well on my boxes |
| MutantTurkey | Ubuntu what version? |
| _Pete_ | latest |
| MutantTurkey | I havent used it |
| MutantTurkey | not sure what to say :x |
| _Pete_ | this is almost as strange as the vuze thing |
| MutantTurkey | no vuze makes sense |
| MutantTurkey | our kgtk wrapper has problems definitely. |
| MutantTurkey | that is a _known_ issue |
| MutantTurkey | hopefully closing many-a-bug this release and hopefully some related to it |
| _Pete_ | I dont consider this a bug |
| _Pete_ | as the only place it can be reproducible is my machine |
| MutantTurkey | can you reproduce it on a VM / other box |
| _Pete_ | not sure |
| _Pete_ | and even tough |
| _Pete_ | virtual machines doesn present the real hw I have |
| MutantTurkey | true |
| MutantTurkey | but if you have a 64bit VM... |
| _Pete_ | http://corei7.serveirc.com/phpsysinfo/index.php?disp=dynamic |
| _Pete_ | this is exactly what I have |
| MutantTurkey | website sucks. |
| MutantTurkey | is that 8core? |
| _Pete_ | no |
| MutantTurkey | ? |
| MutantTurkey | 4 core + ht? |
| _Pete_ | yes |
| MutantTurkey | nice |
| MutantTurkey | you use dydns? |
| MutantTurkey | LOLOLOL |
| MutantTurkey | http://freedns.afraid.org/ |
| MutantTurkey | I use this, it's quite nice |
| MutantTurkey | though now I get my dns through my provider. |
| MutantTurkey | _Pete_: though nice stats, what kind of box is it? |
| _Pete_ | its just my home computer |
| MutantTurkey | :) cool |
| MutantTurkey | I really am thinking about investing in a nice server |
| MutantTurkey | but I'd honestly like to get something sparc based, but that'll never happen :P |
| _Pete_ | sparc is cool architehcture |
| MutantTurkey | definitely |
| _Pete_ | oldest one I own is sparcstation 4 |
| MutantTurkey | I am a young'un so i dont have much in the way of old hardware |
| MutantTurkey | my TV is from 87 if that counts :P |

| _Pete_ | then you are surprised |
| _Pete_ | that I first got my internet acceess |
| MutantTurkey | hehe |
| _Pete_ | about around 1989 |
| MutantTurkey | 1989 yeesh |
| MutantTurkey | <btw debugging kickoff sucks> |
| _Pete_ | I am born in 1972 |
| _Pete_ | and have one child |
| MutantTurkey | who is probably as old as I am... |
| _Pete_ | which unfortunatelly is still not as linux guru as I am |
| _Pete_ | ... he is 7 years old |
| MutantTurkey | ah :P |
| MutantTurkey | well then I am older than at least somebody! |
| _Pete_ | well anyway |
| _Pete_ | I dont think this comes to age |
| _Pete_ | but to attitude |
| MutantTurkey | what sort of attitude? |
| MutantTurkey | being to serious can be bad, being to mean can be bad, being to friendly and annoying can be bad. being over zealous can be bad as well as over confidence. |
| MutantTurkey | All things must be done in moderation. |

| l0ner | oh, libltdl is present in system |
| MutantTurkey | oh |
| l0ner | look at the end of cmakelists for arts |
| l0ner | and you'll get it |

| Xu_R | ok |

| gvy | hi folks, a probably silly question: after upgrade from 3.5.10 to 3.5.13svn (there was no release at package build time yet) the desktop icons became undraggable |
| gvy | couldn't find the control center knob so far (or google a config file snippet) |
| Z_God | gvy: that should happen |
| Z_God | shouldn't* |
| Z_God | you've built trinity on altlinux? |
| gvy | Z_God, heh, I've moved ~/.kde aside for both users but for one of them, copied .kde/share/apps/kdesktop/IconPositions back and the existing icons were at least on their usual places (which is an issue on 1600x1200 as you might guess :) -- but they're still unmovable (round circle mouse cursor) |
| Z_God | gvy: strange, this is not supposed to happen |
| Z_God | I don't know the default config directory btw when building from sources, most packages seem to be using ~/.trinity |
| gvy | re "on altlinux", yes, it's altlinux package set by Sergey Turchin (zerg@) although he told that he rather moves on and so I consider taking over the packages |
| Z_God | хорошо :) |
| gvy | well, I let the upgraded code reinitalize user configuration hopefully from scratch |
| Z_God | it sounds like a permissions problem to me |
| gvy | erm, repeat pls, changed charset to utf8 :) |
| Z_God | I know that KDE3 would also disable UI when it did not have write permissions to the relevant config files |
| Z_God | я написал: хорошо ;) |
| gvy | а :) |
| gvy | hm, the initialization was done with the target user permissions but thanks for the hint' I'll recheck that |
| Z_God | this is not supposed to happen then... |
| Z_God | gvy: if this does not solve the issue, maybe you could kill the kdesktop process & start it from a konsole |
| Z_God | maybe it will print some errors |
| gvy | ok; the console errors get logged (~/.xsession-errors$DISPLAY) here, so far there wasn't any criminal there to me |
| gvy | maybe strace will tell more |
| Z_God | the permissions are all ok? |
| gvy | lemme check... |
| gvy | ~/.kde for sure, checking the whole homedirs |
| gvy | there are some external symlinks though, and I'll chgrp those .desktop files which belong to one of user's groups but not to his private one just in case (there's no sense in those group perms in the first place) |
| Z_God | I would expect the block to occur of the IconPositions file is readonly |
| Z_God | if* |
| gvy | at least file permissions are 0600 user:user... |
| gvy | well, I'll try strace probably |
| Z_God | gvy: alright, it'll be interesting to hear what causes this... |

| MutantTurkey | surely 8PM is not to late for you? |

| MutantTurkey | we need to rewrite our "about" section on the website |
| MutantTurkey | make some goal clear |
| MutantTurkey | in light of some recent ML coversation |
| Z_God | I think he could contribute at least some viewpoints |
| Z_God | yes also that |
| MutantTurkey | Z_God: if he stops being a brickheaded stubbon person on the subject |
| MutantTurkey | Personally I don't think he's even tried TDE |
| MutantTurkey | that being said he is a immense resource and a valuable asset so I don't want to thow him off the boat |
| Z_God | he seems more rude than he probably is |
| MutantTurkey | I thought so at first |
| Z_God | it's also due to the language barrier |
| MutantTurkey | language barrier, |
| MutantTurkey | but no. |
| MutantTurkey | I thin knot. |
| MutantTurkey | it's always a hostile tone |
| Z_God | this is the difference in language |
| MutantTurkey | and its not the tone as much as he blasphemes trinity on our own mailing lists, promotes his failing KDE:KDE3 repostory |
| MutantTurkey | Z_God: I think not, his content is always angry |
| Z_God | yes, this was a clear mistake |
| MutantTurkey | but it's nothing new |
| Z_God | in his initial mail yesterday, he was interested in our reponse to the criticism from the kwin dev, which we had already been working on |
| Z_God | I think he could really contribute there with his viewpoint |
| MutantTurkey | yes |
| MutantTurkey | and api compatibility is not my strongpoint |
| MutantTurkey | BUT this is open source, you need to be respectful |
| Z_God | we should not forget that the TQt makeover is a huge one and it's understandable that some packagers may not immediately want to copt that |
| Z_God | copy* |

| Iguleder | hello |
| Iguleder | I have a question - do I have to subscribe to the mailing lists in order to use them? I have sent a message and I don't see it in the web archive |
| MutantTurkey | you need to be subscribed to send a message |
| MutantTurkey | afaik |
| MutantTurkey | actually almost certainly |
| Xu_R | MutantTurkey: sure |
| Iguleder | what about write access to the repositories? |
| Iguleder | I'm a distro developer and I'd like to commit my build scripts |
| Xu_R | you ask Tim about that; he controls all access |
| Xu_R | tde-packaging is the only repo not frozen, so you can still commit there :P |
| Iguleder | yeah, I noticed that :) |
| _Pete_ | hi all |
| Iguleder | btw, MutantTurkey - your PKGBUILDs are amazing |
| _Pete_ | so still no idea what has broken my 32bit exes not to run? |
| _Pete_ | I am quite sure it something in trinity |
| Iguleder | ldd them |
| _Pete_ | doesnt help |
| Iguleder | lol, of course it doesn't |
| Iguleder | ldd is useful to reveal missing library problems |
| Iguleder | what binary is it and what exactly did you install? |
| _Pete_ | then why you suggest to use that? |
| Iguleder | because maybe you removed some library and now it doesn't run because of that |
| _Pete_ | ok |
| _Pete_ | but yes the problem is still the same |
| gcsimon | if "ldd -r" shos no problems, the binary should run. ldd "dlopen()"'s it, and that works, the shells should also be able to run them |
| _Pete_ | after installing trinity to ubuntu 11.10 64bit |
| _Pete_ | the 32bit programs dont work any more |
| Iguleder | any 32-bit executable? |
| gcsimon | what error messages to you get? |
| Xu_R | um... that's because of Ubuntu's changes IIRC |
| Xu_R | see their release notes, I do remember seeing mention of removal of 32-bit support |
| MutantTurkey | Iguleder: thanks :) |
| Xu_R | on 64-bit systems |
| Iguleder | they have that multiarch thingy |
| _Pete_ | gcsimon: like trying to run wine |
| Xu_R | but that was removed in 11.10. I think there's mention in the release notes |
| _Pete_ | $ /usr/bin/winee |
| _Pete_ | bash: /usr/bin/winee: No such file or directory |
| Xu_R | I might be wrong though |
| Iguleder | wasn't multiarch added in the latest version? |
| MutantTurkey | wait new idea |
| gcsimon | ld missing for 32bit |
| MutantTurkey | wait! |
| Iguleder | I remember I read Debian's plans for Wheezy and multiarch was there |
| Xu_R | hm... that's Debian though, not Ubuntu... |
| MutantTurkey | could it have to do with libltdl? |
| Iguleder | Ubuntu inherited that feature |
| gcsimon | there shoudl be a file /lib/ld-xxxx.so |
| Xu_R | is he missing a package for multiarch support? |
| _Pete_ | no |
| Xu_R | that could be another reason |
| Xu_R | oh. |
| gcsimon | he is missing the dynamic linker for 32bit |
| MutantTurkey | libltdl is modified for TDE |
| Iguleder | check whether the loader exists ... lol |
| MutantTurkey | "Libtool provides a small library, called libltdl, that aims at hiding the various difficulties of dlopening libraries from programmers." |
| MutantTurkey | could it be related? |
| gcsimon | dunno |
| MutantTurkey | Iguleder: what distro are you looking to packaging? |
| Iguleder | isn't libtool used only for dynamic plugin loading? |
| MutantTurkey | Xu_R: ketsgoo |
| Iguleder | MutantTurkey: Puppy, but I can also help with others |
| gcsimon | but without an dynamic linker (ld)O for 32bit. 32bit apps won't work - except static binaries... |
| MutantTurkey | cool |
| _Pete_ | and I still repeat |
| MutantTurkey | cool cool |
| Iguleder | MutantTurkey: I've used Arch, Slackware and others, the only ones I'll have to study thoroughly are DEB-based once, since I'm not a Debian developer :) |
| gcsimon | _Pete: you should have a similary named file in /lib64/ld-xxxxx.so |
| _Pete_ | everything worked fine before trinity install |
| MutantTurkey | Iguleder: I see. how'd you run across the pkgbuilds? |
| MutantTurkey | AUR? |
| Iguleder | MutantTurkey: I had trouble with kdelibs, so I took a look at yours - I read the Arch wiki and follow the AUR regularly |
| MutantTurkey | :) |
| MutantTurkey | good |
| MutantTurkey | it's not yet commited in tde-packagers though |
| MutantTurkey | cant remember my git password :| LOL |
| gcsimon | _Pete_: i have /lib64/ld-2.11.1.so and /lib/ld-2.11.1.so do your have these files (or similar ones) too? |
| Iguleder | Slackware's SlackBuild's are too complex and somewhat hacky, while yours follow the KISS principle :) |
| MutantTurkey | :D |
| MutantTurkey | I try to keep it vanilla. |
| _Pete_ | gcsimon: I have the package ialibs-32 or something |
| MutantTurkey | thats the arch way. |
| Iguleder | same here :) |
| _Pete_ | befpre trinitu it was enough |
| Iguleder | kinda funny that having a 100% vanilla system works better than a rock-solid Debian |
| _Pete_ | not anymore |
| Z_God | gvy: I already though Ukraine :) I'll be in Kharkov next month! |
| gcsimon | _Pete_: that alone doesn't mean the files exist |
| MutantTurkey | Iguleder: there is a meeting on the 15th at noon EST. could you attend? it's for developers and packagers |
| Iguleder | MutantTurkey: nope, I won't be home, but I'll read the summary |
| _Pete_ | gcsimon: I did apt-get --reinstall install that package |
| gcsimon | _Pete_: i'm not one of the dev's so i don't know ehat exactly happend. but i know enoug to say: without a "ld-xxxx.so" in /lib/ 32bit apps won't work |
| _Pete_ | they sure must exists |
| Iguleder | _Pete_: try to run a static 32-bit binary |
| Iguleder | like cdebootstrap or busybox-static |
| _Pete_ | url? |
| Iguleder | packages.ubuntu.com |
| Iguleder | if this works, it means something about the loader is screwed up ... or maybe, you have no loader :) |
| _Pete_ | what I have tried is |
| _Pete_ | I have vm running 32bit |
| _Pete_ | copied zip exe from that |
| MutantTurkey | Iguleder: okay, well I suggest you mail into the devel list and announce your willingneso package |
| _Pete_ | it is not working |
| Xu_R | _Pete_: wait, exe? |
| Xu_R | _Pete_: is this a windows executable? |
| _Pete_ | ... |
| _Pete_ | no |
| Iguleder | MutantTurkey: will do :) |
| gcsimon | _Pete_: can you run "ls /lib/ld-*", what is the output? |
| Iguleder | _Pete_: /usr/bin/zip should be dynamically-linked |
| _Pete_ | Iguleder: ok, can you name one binary that is not, which comes with ubuntu ? |
| gcsimon | :D |
| Iguleder | go to packages.ubuntu.com and search for "-static" |
| MutantTurkey | Iguleder: awesome! welcome aboard comrade |
| Iguleder | I know of cdebootstrap-static and busybox-static |
| Iguleder | MutantTurkey: lol ... thank you :) |
| MutantTurkey | _Pete_: I am sure this is more of an ubuntu problem then related to trinity :P |
| _Pete_ | ok so to ge this more clear |
| MutantTurkey | which makes me wonder how the install of trinity affected it |
| Iguleder | I still don't get it - why are you afraid to run a static binary? |
| _Pete_ | if I compile simple "hello world" in 32bit |
| MutantTurkey | nothing wrong with static |
| MutantTurkey | http://sta.li |
| Iguleder | your loader could be messed up |
| _Pete_ | os that static or not? |
| Iguleder | that's the first thing to check if the libraries are indeed there |
| gcsimon | _Pete_: a simple hello world app is dynamic linked agains a several libs |
| _Pete_ | ok then |
| gcsimon | _Pete_: c-runtime libs (glibc) for example |
| MutantTurkey | did you read up on the Ubuntu multiarch wikipage? |
| Iguleder | gcc -static is the answer |
| _Pete_ | is there any *simple* way to compile static hello world? |
| gcsimon | _Pete_: unless you tell your compiler (gcc/g++) "-static" |
| gcsimon | _Pete_: simply add "-static" to your gcc/g++ command line you use for compiling |
| Iguleder | #include <stdio.h>\nint main(){ printf("hello world"); return 0; } |
| Iguleder | run gcc -static on this one |
| Iguleder | _Pete_: how do you intend to compile that, btw? are you using some sort of cross-compiler? |
| _Pete_ | As said I have both 32bit and 64bit system running |
| _Pete_ | later is host for other |
| gcsimon | x64 gcc/g++ can cross comile to x86 (-m32 commandline option) |
| _Pete_ | hmm ok |
| _Pete_ | so when I did compile dummy C with 32bit system and -static |
| _Pete_ | it did run on the problem 64bit system |
| Iguleder | now try to omit "-static" |
| Iguleder | if libtool/ld are messed up, it won't run |
| _Pete_ | the c being |
| _Pete_ | $ cat test.c |
| _Pete_ | int main() |
| _Pete_ | { return 0; |
| _Pete_ | } |
| MutantTurkey | Iguleder: didnt I mention we have a modified version |
| MutantTurkey | of it |
| Iguleder | MutantTurkey: yep, you did |
| _Pete_ | Iguleder: now the some happens |
| _Pete_ | if compiled without -static |
| gcsimon | _Pete_: no such file.... ? |
| _Pete_ | its unknown executable |
| _Pete_ | yes |
| gcsimon | _Pete_: again: what does ls /lib/ld-* shows? |
| Iguleder | do you use a vanilla kernel? |
| Iguleder | maybe it's a 64-bit kernel without IA32 emulation |
| _Pete_ | that' what I said from start |
| _Pete_ | the ialibs is installed |
| gcsimon | _Pete_: sorry must have missed it |
| _Pete_ | and did work fine befire trinity |
| gcsimon | _Pete_: no no not the package, does the file actually exist? could have been deleted |
| _Pete_ | what file ? |
| gcsimon | _Pete_: /lib/ld-* |
| _Pete_ | petria@i7:/pub/tmp$ cd /lib |
| _Pete_ | petria@i7:/lib$ ls -lh | grep ld |
| _Pete_ | petria@i7:/lib$ |
| _Pete_ | yes they are missing |
| *** MutantTurkey has quit IRC |
| gcsimon | _Pete_: /lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 MUST EXIST. if it doesn't screw it. so here the problem lies. |
| gcsimon | _Pete_: no ld for 32bit - no dynamic linked apps for 32bit |
| gcsimon | _Pete_: i don't know which packe provides this file. but you need that file |
| Iguleder | that's why static stuff run, no need for the dynamic loader |
| Iguleder | libc6 should provide it as far as I remember |
| _Pete_ | gcsimon: that is not there |
| Xu_R | this all boils down to a missing package again, probably |
| _Pete_ | and I am pretty sure it vanished during trinity install |
| Iguleder | is it a 32-bit Trinity? |
| _Pete_ | no |
| _Pete_ | 64bit |
| gcsimon | _Pete_: well, whyever it vanished.... one you get ld for 32bit, 32bit apps should work again |
| _Pete_ | ok but this is just wierd |
| Iguleder | could be another wonderful package conflict |
| _Pete_ | did reinstall again |
| _Pete_ | root@i7:/var/cache/apt/archives# dpkg -i ./ia32-libs_20090808ubuntu26_amd64.deb |
| _Pete_ | and still after that |
| _Pete_ | 32bit is not working |
| Iguleder | check whether you have ld |
| Xu_R | oh wait a minute |
| Xu_R | is there a /lib32 folder on your system, _Pete_ |
| Xu_R | ? |
| Xu_R | I just decided to lookup that ia32 package you wanted to install... |
| Xu_R | and I get a variety of libraries in /lib32 |
| _Pete_ | Xu_R: yes it is there |

| damiano_ | hey everyone |
| damiano_ | Z_God, there? |
| Z_God | yes |
| damiano_ | :) |
| damiano_ | i'm back for assistance... |
| damiano_ | but you know what... |
| damiano_ | for some reason this thing dissappeard... |
| damiano_ | i mean.. it seems to be fine now. |
| _Pete_ | Ok I will give up for now |
| damiano_ | i startup skype while playing something - ok. I go to skype sound settings (usually that makes sound shut off) - all fine. |
| *** damiano_ is now known as Aquarius |
| Aquarius | sorry.. it's me :) |
| Z_God | seems good :) |
| Aquarius | yeah... but it's weird. |
| Aquarius | i tried to mess with dmix and stuff but it didn't work so i just disconnected hdd and put it away. |
| Z_God | maybe you got an update, I don't know |
| Aquarius | perhaps.. |
| Aquarius | i also tried openSUSE |
| Aquarius | looks nice, but kinda complicated a bit. |
| Z_God | when things are working at the same time, you're on dmix |
| Aquarius | yeah, but why it didn't work before?! |
| Z_God | dunno |
| Z_God | I have to start cooking now... |
| Z_God | I'll bbl |
| Aquarius | ok man |
| Aquarius | see ya. |
| Z_God | yo |
| Aquarius | man... i would never dare to re-install it... |
| Aquarius | it's fatal |
| Aquarius | if only i knew how i managed to make it work normally.. |
| gvy | then backup the thing |
| gvy | and sleep well |
| gvy | for some value of well |
| Aquarius | exactly |
| Aquarius | that was pricely what i was about to do |
| Aquarius | precisely* |
| Aquarius | now i'm afraid to make any redundant moves) So bad i've been longing for this to happen.. who knows, maybe if i restart it will be all gone ;) |
| Aquarius | but hopefully not. |
| gcsimon | ;-) |
| gcsimon | have faith! |
| Aquarius | doing my best ;) |
| gcsimon | you had this sound-problem, right? |
| gvy | Aquarius, you might have had something trying to grab OSS dsp (it would do that exclusively) |
| gvy | just in case you catch the greedy app, wrapping it with aoss might help :) |
| Aquarius | maybe.... i dunno what i did.. i tried to force dmix.. but it didn't help |
| Aquarius | skype uses now "default" device anyway |
| Aquarius | all of those are marked as "default" as initially it was. |
| Aquarius | but it works though differently now. |
| Aquarius | let me check for any .conf leftovers.. maybe i didn't delete everything.. |
| gvy | I'd do something like lsof | grep /dev/snd/ or fuser -vv /dev/dsp |
| gvy | but that's rather alsa-specific, not tde-specific... |
| Xu_R | _Pete_: IIRC ia32-libs only work for existing programs packaged for ubuntu |
| Xu_R | there is no multilib anymore. |
| Xu_R | so there is no way to run 32-bit programs on Ubuntu :| |
| Aquarius | i'm not using TDE for a while. |
| Xu_R | (at least, dynamically) |
| _Pete_ | Xu_R: wtf ? |
| Xu_R | _Pete_: well, they don't provide a 32-bit ld for x86_64 now, so there is no way. |
| Xu_R | bbiab, people |
| gcsimon | i might be mistaken, but is wine not 32bit-only program? |
| gcsimon | would mean wine will never work on 64bit ubuntu? |
| gcsimon | ähm. wait. I have a 32bit ld on my 64bit ubuntu box! |
| gcsimon | is there a way i can find out which package provided it? |
| _Pete_ | yes it is |
| gcsimon | but this package would be the one _Pete_ needs |
| _Pete_ | and that is why I noticed this in first place |
| gcsimon | how? |
| gcsimon | how do i find the package (i'm new to apt and synapic) |
| jumpship | look into apt-file or apt-cache to find out which pkg a file belongs to |
| _Pete_ | well, I am game addicted |
| _Pete_ | like to play LFS and GT5 |
| _Pete_ | but first wont work withouth wine |
| Iguleder | I like to play Linux from Scratch :) |
| _Pete_ | that's good optiotn too :) |
| gcsimon | were do i find these files? (really completly new to apt) |
| jumpship | um... on sec, been a while |
| _Pete_ | files installedd |
| _Pete_ | or files in package? |
| gcsimon | i keep a windows arround box here... just in case.... ;-) |
| jumpship | try "dpkg -S <file>" |
| gcsimon | root@ws-trinity:~# dpkg -S /lib/ld-2.11.1.so |
| gcsimon | libc6: /lib/ld-2.11.1.so |
| *** samelian has quit IRC |
| gcsimon | it's an ubuntu-server LTS by the way |
| _Pete_ | so what are you suggesting? |
| gcsimon | i assume libc6 is installed? |
| _Pete_ | for some reason yet unknown |
| _Pete_ | the abowsé command yield no result |
| gcsimon | so... libc6 is not installed? |
| _Pete_ | I am very uncertaub to think that |
| _Pete_ | as said |
| _Pete_ | everything did work |
| _Pete_ | before trinity |
| gcsimon | can you force an reinstall of libc6? if so, do it. maybe it will fix the missing files |
| _Pete_ | yes that can be tried |
| _Pete_ | but I am guite sure |
| _Pete_ | problem is somewhere else |
| jumpship | could try here: |
| jumpship | http://packages.ubuntu.com/ |
| _Pete_ | one thing is |
| _Pete_ | I have not booted the machine |
| _Pete_ | as it should not |
| _Pete_ | but that would be no problem |
| *** MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop |
| gcsimon | dunno. maybe it won't boot again - with a missing ld-x86.... |
| MutantTurkey | Iguleder: any progress on the 32bit issue? |
| *** samelian has joined #trinity-desktop |
| _Pete_ | this system has been booting fine since it was installed X years ago |
| gcsimon | ld 32bit is missing, thats for sure. libc6 provides it. i think _Pete_ should try reinstalling libc6 |
| _Pete_ | I see no reason trinity desktop would break that |
| gcsimon | well i wouldn't know that. trinity is quite complex. many packages involved and possibly others affected. maybe apt considered that the file is no longer required, and removed it. i don't know. i used suse and yast before, and i was in constant warfare with rpm and package management. |
| Iguleder | no ld :) |
| *** MutantTurkey has quit IRC |
| Iguleder | btw, is there any work being done to remove Trinity's dependency on HAL? |
| Iguleder | I was thinking, maybe a library could be written to provide hardware abstraction with two backends, HAL and udev - much like tqtinterface |
| _Pete_ | why is this needed ? |
| _Pete_ | for me, this is purely pro guestion |
| _Pete_ | I have been doing linux dev for many yaears |
| _Pete_ | but stilll to come kde3 is best UI |
| Iguleder | MutantTurkey: do you remember what Trinity packages depend on HAL? |
| Z_God | _Pete_: you cannot not have libc6 and be using that system ;) |
| Z_God | not having it would break pretty much every program |

| Aquarius | ok, i'm back |
| Aquarius | can anyone tell me why VLC refuses to be my default multimedia player? |
| *** KingSphinx has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Aquarius | i mean.. i've associated it with multimedia formats in "Open with..." thing, but it ignores and uses Totem instead. |
| l0ner | try removing totem |
| l0ner | from what I remember totem is pretty unusable |
| Aquarius | hm... |
| Aquarius | ok... |
| KingSphinx | Totem's not so bad... in its native environment (GNOME). Otherwise, it's pretty terrible. |
| Aquarius | and you think that'd force vlc to become default player? |
| l0ner | maybe, it's worth trying |
| Aquarius | yeah, it's not that bad, but a bit uncomfortable. And i find VLC prettier a bit. |
| Aquarius | i'd like to leave it there actually. |
| l0ner | maybe you have some part of gonme on which totem is based sealing requests to use vlc |
| l0ner | *stealing |
| Aquarius | maybe, but i've checked all the places and preffered applications and stuff... still ignores it. |
| Aquarius | dunno.. |
| l0ner | I used totem once, it didn't had features i needed (like multi audio, or subs) and I moved to smplayer |
| KingSphinx | SMPlayer is the exact opposite for me (won't play anything right). |
| l0ner | lol |
| l0ner | anyway check trinity control center -> kde components -> file associations |
| l0ner | search for formats you want and check if vlc is on the top of the list |
| Aquarius | the thing is.. i'm not using Trinity at the moment. |
| Aquarius | i'm on gnome. |
| KingSphinx | And can anyone explain how Fedora's version of KDE 4 is rock-solid and relatively light, yet Kubuntu is not only a RAM hog, but reliably crashes upon shutdown? |
| l0ner | well, it depends on how the package was built |
| l0ner | optimizations and so on |
| Aquarius | KingSphinx, well, because KDE looks (and apparently feels) different on different distributes of linux |
| Aquarius | anyway... i don't like KDE4... it looks ugly at the very least. |
| l0ner | I had it on gentoo and it felt like different de than on ubuntu |
| KingSphinx | From what I can tell, there's no difference in the "Verne" theme and the defailt "Air" theme other than the name. |
| KingSphinx | And the wallpaper, though that's obvious. |
| l0ner | Aquarius: agree, by defaults it reassembles too much vista for me, with it's default colors |
| l0ner | yep, I think it's ugly and not so flexible in customization |
| KingSphinx | I actually don't mind it, I can actually use the transparency as an indicator as to whether desktop effects are working (none = not working) |
| l0ner | it was pointed to me that it's easier to write themes for kde4 than it was i kde3 |
| l0ner | but in kde3 i culd change colors for the theme as i wanted |
| l0ner | in kde4 it's not possible |
| KingSphinx | That reminds me, I need to add the Fedora Trinity repos. |
| l0ner | the only thing i liked in kde4 was window change animation |

| Aquarius | anyone there? |
| l0ner | hello |
| Aquarius | oh goodie |
| l0ner | I'm here, but I'm thinking about going to get some sleep |
| Aquarius | could you tell me how to change session manager resolution? Cause it's other than my desktop's one. |
| Aquarius | well.. that's a good thing to think on |
| l0ner | session manager? You mean kdm? |
| l0ner | or the you mean resoultion you get at boot? |
| Aquarius | gdm in my case |
| Aquarius | kdm in Trinity changes res respectivelly actually. |
| l0ner | uh, I think it gets resoultion form xorg.conf |
| Aquarius | hm... |
| Aquarius | shall i look it up? |
| l0ner | which should detect it automaticlyy |
| Aquarius | i mean.. would it be clear to me what to setup there? |
| Aquarius | well, it doesn't. I mean, it detects it, but doesn't change the res for gdm |
| l0ner | nope, it's better not to look or touch xorg.conf |
| Aquarius | strangely though. |
| Aquarius | i see. |
| Aquarius | maybe i have to run ATI control center... |
| Aquarius | but i can't, it requires root privilege... i forgot how i launched it from Terminal.. |
| l0ner | or try runiinig Xorg -configure, backuping old xorg.conf and using one generated |
| Aquarius | ok... let's see... |
| Aquarius | Fatal server error: |
| Aquarius | Server is already active for display 0 |
| l0ner | ok, you need to move to tty, log in, kill gdm, and then do all the magic |
| Aquarius | damn... |
| Aquarius | i wish it was less sophisticated)) |
| l0ner | and I'm not sure if it will work |
| l0ner | yeah, unfortunately it's xorg |
| Aquarius | well... let's postpone it then... |
| l0ner | that it's compicated |
| Aquarius | actually.. many things are kinda nasty in linux ;) |
| Aquarius | but that's its beauty for some i guess. |
| l0ner | many thing are outdated or too complicated |
| Aquarius | yep. |
| Aquarius | let alone audio... now i agree on that... it's MESS |
| *** delight has quit IRC |
| Aquarius | Multi Error Sound Sequencer |
| Aquarius | M.E.S.S. |
| l0ner | alsa right now is ok, but how it handled, or rather how distro creators can't understand how it works |
| Aquarius | right here it's also ok, but as i said before, i dunno what fixed it. |
| Aquarius | and neither i wanna reproduce it |
| Aquarius | hell NO.... |
| Aquarius | actually PA in latest Ubuntu is also fine. |
| l0ner | pulseaudio pointed what was broken in alsa, broken dirvers and so on |
| Aquarius | yeah, but it brought other probs |
| l0ner | like? |
| l0ner | the main problem whit pulseaudio is that people don't quite understand how it should be used |
| l0ner | and install both alsa-tools and pulseaudio |
| l0ner | and since alsa-tools provide alsa-mixer, which is not only volume control center but is actually a sound mixer |
| Aquarius | well... for example, with PA audio acted funny. Initially! In most linux based OSs... firstly, i couldn't host conferences in skype, it was stuttering badly. |
| Aquarius | secondly, it tends to "swallow" some portions of sound sequence in java |
| l0ner | skype for linux i pretty outdated and uses obscure audio output |
| Aquarius | it didn't route streams normally either. |
| Aquarius | well now it's ok! |
| enderw | i get a not-found error for the repository update in ubuntu oneeric.anyone? |
| l0ner | maybe ubuntu devs did some hack magic |
| Aquarius | probably. |
| Aquarius | actually, PA in Ubuntu is also latest version |
| Aquarius | in Debian it's 0.9 in Ubuntu it's 1.x or even 2... can't quite remember. |
| l0ner | maybe latest pa contains some fixes |
| Aquarius | yeah, that's what i think too. |
| l0ner | actually i dont use pa right now |
| l0ner | pure arts |
| Aquarius | well.. eventually you will |
| Aquarius | but don't you worry, you'll get no probs. |
| l0ner | i hope, with time that arts which is a mess will be replaced with something better |
| Aquarius | for example, i'll have to use it too, 'cause next Debian wheeze is gonna be implemented with PA anyways. |
| Aquarius | wheezy* |
| l0ner | either pulse audio for mixer part, or something new |
| l0ner | i don't use binary distros |
| l0ner | for me it's either gentoo or arch |
| Aquarius | PA is improving, so one day people will forget about its former issues. |
| l0ner | in which i have more control on which my system use |
| l0ner | let's hope so |
| Aquarius | they just supplied linux with it a bit too early. |
| Aquarius | while it was at experimental stage |
| l0ner | nah, distros decided to include it too early |
| l0ner | not even distros |
| l0ner | ubuntu |
| Aquarius | well yeah, either ways |
| l0ner | which includes sometimes beta software as stable |
| enderw | is there a release yet for oneiric? |
| Aquarius | of what? |
| *** l0ner has left #trinity-desktop |
| enderw | trinity 3.5.13 |
| Aquarius | yes |
| Aquarius | and i've even tried it out. |
| Aquarius | on oneiric. But... had some glitches. |
| Aquarius | kicker had some crash issue. |
| Aquarius | but it's me. however, proceed with caution. |
| Aquarius | install it only if you're sure that in mean case you can remove it painlessly. |
| Aquarius | 3.5.13 has been reported unstable a bit... dunno if they've fixed it yet or not... |
| enderw | ok, thanks. |
| Aquarius | i wonder what makes Wine work properly on Debian.. |

| * Strangelv looks at Martinp23 and says, "Gesundheit." |
| Strangelv | "I wonder where the blog is |
| Z_God | probably on the freenode site |
| Strangelv | I must admit I'm more motivated to look at Opera's EULA some more and try to make sense of it. It's a bit more difficult to understand than I remember it being the last timei insalled it to something about 4 years ago |
| l0ner | god... I use opera but never looked at EULA |
| Strangelv | Or maybe my brain fog was worse than i thought. It's about third parties, not third party software |
| Strangelv | So it's someone else using my machine that they want me to micromanage and carefulyl evaluate, not what I plug into Opera |
| Strangelv | I always look at the EULAs |
| Strangelv | Which I must admit does help motivate me to install fewer things that have them |
| l0ner | well, I don't really care... I'm the next, next, next at installation type if user |
| l0ner | and on linux You have so few apps with eula |
| Strangelv | I've had it explained to me more than once that I'm almost teh only person in the world who actually reads them |
| l0ner | that I don't have need to read them |
| l0ner | maybe not the only |
| l0ner | but one of the few |
| l0ner | but it's a good think, you know what devs want from you |
| l0ner | or rather, the legal section of dev company |
| Strangelv | I'm more of a 'you really do need to read teh fine print -- and the finer they make it the moer important it is to read it' type of user/customer/borrower/lender/patron/shareholder, et c. |
| Strangelv | "Many do seem to be written my lawyers with a 'what can we get away with' point of view. The suits will insist that they'de never enforce such provision,s but even if tehy're truthful, they're not going to be in their positions forever |
| Strangelv | The ones I hear the most horror stories about are employment contracts |
| l0ner | well it's works like this i guess |
| *** Fat-Zer_ has quit IRC |
| l0ner | and it's a bad thing |
| *** Fat-Zer_ has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Strangelv | We need more entreprenaur,s moer employers, and more jobs to choose from so that anyone wanting to present a complicated document and pressure people to 'just sign it' will find it almost impossibel to hire anyone |
| l0ner | i remember big fuss about something included in photoshop eula that said pretty much that every work created with this software is propriety od the adobe |
| l0ner | yep, thats true |
| Strangelv | "cameras that shoot video footage hawve similar problems I'm told. You're only authorized to use the video footage under a very small set of conditions |
| Strangelv | I've not heard of teh patent holders for MPEG ever enforcing this, but they could |
| Strangelv | "I wonder if anypne has a high resolution camera that can shoot MJPEG |
| l0ner | well, after all the companies that produces tings are nothing more than just a bunch of old, fat and greedy dudes who want nothing more but our money |
| Strangelv | ...whether or not teh patent holders could get it to hold up in court against a sufficiently wvell-funsded defendant would be good to see -- especially if teh test case goes against them. Patents are insane in the US, and patent armageddon is already starting in teh mobile phone industry, just in slaw motion and with sufficiently well-fended parties that it's not a clear steamroller that decrees that no ene is |
| Strangelv | allowed to manufacture or sell anything |
| Strangelv | ...which is one of the possibilities that could happen anyway |
| l0ner | lets wait until this whole system crumbles down, it won't be long |
| Strangelv | I'm plea'santly astonished that it hasn't already. I need o be making better use of teh extra time to attempt to prepare |
| * Strangelv needs to buy a bunch of water bottles and fill them. He also needs more long term stored food |
| l0ner | world economy (which was based on the money that didn't exist in reality at all) crumbled already, so will other parts of this whole mess |
| l0ner | I'd rather begun buying gold |
| l0ner | after everything falls down it will be only thing left with value |
| l0ner | this or petroil |
| Strangelv | Patents aren't teh only reason it's slowly crashing down on us. It's too many things at once. If it's any consolation, the parties that were hoping ot exploit this to their own ends are watching a decades-long project to create a singular nation-state out of Europe for use as a building block to world control are watching it crack up into pieces in panic and horror |
| l0ner | you know, i live in europe so i see it form the inside |
| l0ner | it's a mess |
| l0ner | I can't understand how it works |
| l0ner | and why it is still there |
| l0ner | *here |
| Strangelv | Silver has the main advantages of gold and several others -- it's rarer, it's used up by a lot of processes that leave it in non-recoverabel trace amounts, and because of price manipulation, we're rapidly running out becaues no one who isn't thinking with a proverbial tin foil hat is thinking to build an inventory of the stuff |
| Strangelv | At teh end of any month now, COMEX is going to default. It's possible another silver market could default first, but it's probably the most vulnerable with the most fraudient contracts and lowest inventory and most people trying to pull their seilver out |
| l0ner | well, we'll see how it will go |
| l0ner | I'm not that good with al this economic and politic crap |
| l0ner | the only thing I'm good at is computers |
| Strangelv | It's important to get supplies as well so you're not needing to trade away your gold and silver unecessarily at far higher prices for scarce supplies that are presentyl not scarce |
| Strangelv | I can't say that geopolitics and survival supplies and economics are quite what I wanted either. I've just been very concerned for a long time. |
| Strangelv | Aside from what the internet has provided us with and a far larger number of people being able to see what's fgoing on, things have just gotten worse and worse |
| l0ner | well, lets hope that there will be better time after whole thing crashes |
| Strangelv | Need to see what we can protect from the crash |
| l0ner | yup |
| Strangelv | Texas as a meme is about as strong as they get, so I doumt Texas will collapse. I have no such confidence about the union |
| Strangelv | Problem is that Texas' government is corrupt. I really wish RIck Perry has politically self-destructed 10 years ago, but I suppose late is better than never |
| l0ner | we'll see |
| l0ner | I don't know anything about US |
| Strangelv | I need to know more about Europe than I do |
| Strangelv | As that may be ground zero despite how much the Beltway in D.C. deserves to be |
| l0ner | I know that here in italy the current goverment resigned yesterday and we don't really know what will happen from now on |
| Strangelv | How much cheering on the streets has their been over the resignations? |
| l0ner | and in the poland the goverment is made only by people who cares about themselves |
| l0ner | many, my facebook was flooded with happy posts, and I've even seen non-drinking people drink champagne on the streets |
| Strangelv | Actually that wou/ld be dangerous here. As corrupt as the US Congress is, they've only built the problem -- the problem is external to them and self-sustaining. Every session they focus on creating more powvers for the utterly out of control executive branch filled with unaccountable bureaucracies |
| l0ner | let's hope we wont finish in cyberpunk-like world where megacorporations are true goverments |
| Strangelv | The US has more statutes, laws, rules, and regulations than any other country in world history. ...as well as a bigger debt than any. I must admit I don't hear the equivalent of 'what could go wrong' dismissals of any danger as I used to. Activists on the left as well as the right have been having admittedly not big enough protests. Need to get them together to focus on the common enemy instead of each other |
| Strangelv | Remember: Corporations were a government creation |
| l0ner | i know |
| Strangelv | That's normally forgotten in the US. One side defends them assuming that doing so is defending the free market; the other side blames the free market for creating them and wants the government to protect us from them... |
| l0ner | but gov won't protect us form corps, becase corps are gov |
| Strangelv | Which is all very good news if you've got your interests lined up with teh bost obscenely large gowvernment in world history getting even moreso |
| l0ner | or rather, coprs are financing gov |
| Strangelv | The relationship is symbiotic as well as pathological |
| * Strangelv is a card carrying member of the Libertarian Party, so his views on a great many things are fairly predictable |
| l0ner | lol |
| Aquarius | hm... gnome is getting slower... |
| Strangelv | In what context? |
| * l0ner is some kind of anarchist with a little of socialist ideas |
| Strangelv | There are morle potential types of anarchies than there are of potential governments as best I can tell |
| l0ner | that's true |
| l0ner | too |
| Strangelv | The main question is how many of them could be stable enough to last more than even a single decade |
| Strangelv | Permanance is too much to ask of any situation -- pure democracies certianly fail that test |
| l0ner | but it will take force of whole nation to implement anarchy-idea-based gov, and some people won't allow that, some won't care... |
| Strangelv | The best solution I can think of for an anarchy is to do it in space |
| Strangelv | "eoither an O'Neil colony or inside a lunar lava tube for the crlosest to near term prospects |
| l0ner | yep, we need some kind of hybrid system, which mixes the best aspects of other gov kinds together |
| Strangelv | ...as well as the worst... |
| Strangelv | The important idea of a republic is that teh majority is constrained. Even if the wolves outnumber the sheep, they are limited in terms of what they can vote to have for dinner |
| Strangelv | ...at least until teh constitution is completely ignored. Something that got far too littel attention with ObamaCare is how it was 'passed' -- they're no longer even obeying tho procedures of our constitution, which is about the only thing they WERE obeying |
| l0ner | argh... why I'm so clumsy with graphics?? |
| Strangelv | What are you trying t do? |
| l0ner | some kind of logo for trinity |
| *** Aquarius has quit IRC |
| Strangelv | What is your concept? I need to get back to work on mine if I can find my sketches. |
| Strangelv | if I can't I need to try again to recapture what I had visualised |
| l0ner | we need to have new logo, new icons and whole new collection of art that is not referencing to kde in any way |
| l0ner | well, until now i did one thing |
| l0ner | which I thought could be used on trinity website |
| Strangelv | We have a T logo that's our present placeholder. I'm of the view we sohuld use that for the time being so that we only need to change it once |
| l0ner | and T logo is fine with me, |
| l0ner | but i think we should drop the gears which are too big reference to kde |
| l0ner | and modernize it in some way... |
| Strangelv | I'm thinking of a far bigger change |
| Strangelv | I need to get my second mascot proposal produced. I hope it'll do better than the first proposal which was a configurable robot. evenyoen either liked it or hated it -- with too many in the lattercolumn |
| l0ner | start discussion about it, show some of them |
| l0ner | we need to make a new, modern-looking theme for trinity and so on |
| Strangelv | What about a Plastik/Keramic derived solution that uses the best of both? Admittedly, my desktop looks like a realyl well done variant of Windows 95, but that's actually what I want... |
| Strangelv | Is there a guide for creating a theme somewhere, and for taking apart existing ones for reference graphics? |
| Strangelv | ...or is it mostly algorithmic? |
| l0ner | dunno |
| l0ner | and I'd like to see something more along light stye2/plastik lines |
| Strangelv | If I can figuer out how to use GIT I can at least start uploading wallpaper graphics for people to throw rotten tomatoes at |
| Strangelv | What is style 2? |
| * Strangelv starts up kcontrol |
| l0ner | "light style, 2nd revision" |
| l0ner | i used it to simulate BeOS look some time ago |
| l0ner | and right now I use Polyester which is really nice |
| l0ner | http://dl.dropbox.com/u/26010362/trinity_text_logo.png |
| l0ner | i did this today, as idea for website look |
| Strangelv | I use plastik window decorations and keramic widgets. I'm not sure how to improve on that combination other than to consolidate them somehow |
| l0ner | by widgets you mean? |
| Strangelv | Style |
| l0ner | nah, I don't like it... too much complicated |
| l0ner | I'd settle for something simplier |
| Strangelv | in what way is it complicated?L |
| l0ner | I don't know how to explain this... |
| l0ner | I'm a minimalist so I'd like something more along lines of Plastik/Phase |
| l0ner | keramic looks too me too big, with too many decorative elements which take up space... |
| * Strangelv wonders how much work it would be for a 1967 imprementation. Would arlso need custom mouse cursors as those changed in the 1970s or so to an angled arrow. Only one solution in the 1980s used the old school straight up arrow cursor |
| Strangelv | "That's something that would be good to make configurable -- scale the elements to be larger or smaller |
| l0ner | yep |
| * Strangelv would probabyl make them bigger. His eyes are'nt as good as they used to be |
| l0ner | it was main reason I stopped using gtk based apps, everythign was taking too much space |
| Strangelv | I'm suspecting that's not what you mean by complicated though. I don't need an answer right now as I'm not working on it right now. I really do want an answer, though. if I work on this I'll need to know what you mean |
| l0ner | well, lets leave it for later |
| Strangelv | Scalability is definitely something for a wishlist and absolutely in keeping with what I believe to be the core philisophy that led to KDE3/TDE -- give the user as much control as possible |
| Strangelv | ...and from the GUI |
| l0ner | the best thing to do would be do a small research on how the current modern and most popular OSes look and do something along the lines with tde touch |
| l0ner | exaple: i don't like what OsX is and how it works, but I like how it looks |
| Strangelv | Except that we're the old school. All the cook kids want to make everything a telephone |
| l0ner | or rather, how it manages things by trying to keep workspace as big as it can be |
| Strangelv | That's an ad I'd like to do for KDE sometime: here's a cluttered desktop, mouse keyboar'd and instead ofa display there's a giant handheld touch screen phone. The text reads "What do you mean this isn't what you want in a desktop environment?" |
| Strangelv | "s/KDE/TDE/ |
| l0ner | that is what kde4 devs are doing |
| Strangelv | And Gnome |
| Strangelv | And unity |
| Strangelv | And Microsoft |
| l0ner | fuck desktop, we concentrate on touch screens because they are cool and new and shiny, and well fuck productivity |
| * Strangelv nods grimly |
| l0ner | and most annoying thing i get form kde4 community |
| Strangelv | Let them do the blue sky experimentation. If they do something that actually works, maybe we should look into adding it to the old school paradigm |
| l0ner | "you should use your desktop like we tell you too" |
| Strangelv | When i lose control over my desktop environment I feel threatened and become agressive and hostile. I need to be in control |
| l0ner | yes |
| Strangelv | Scalable widgets definitely sounds like something we should have |
| l0ner | i remember starting a little flame at kde4 forums, in which me and other users was pointing out what they didn't like in kde4. The only argumet kde4 devs used against as (and probably had) is that we either "not use things how they should be use" |
| l0ner | like moving plasmoids too much and so on |
| Strangelv | what's another feature we should have that we're missing? |
| l0ner | or "but it's awesome, it (kinda)works, and we put so much work in creting this!" |
| Strangelv | That's nice, but I wont something that can do what I've been doing |
| Strangelv | want, too |
| Strangelv | That's not more powerful, that's a straight jacket |
| Strangelv | I'll need one if I'm dforced to use it for too long |
| l0ner | We need auto resizing panels, like in xfce, they sum lenght of all widgets panel contains and set panel lienght to that sum |
| l0ner | and possibility to remove completely panels |
| l0ner | right now 1 panel is a must |
| Strangelv | Wonder if the code from their solution could be adapted. After all, if there are compatible licences, we shou/dn't hesitate to take full advantage. 8) |
| l0ner | and different look settings for each panel present (like I want only one panel that is transparent, one whith green bg image, and one with red) |
| l0ner | yep |
| Strangelv | More ways to show the desktops in Kicker. Right now I have four desktops show in a very inefficient fashion: three on the top row one on the bottom. I'd very much like to have four in a single row |
| l0ner | and from the logicla viewpoint we don't need even to look at theri code, since all we need is a method to get widgets size, and sum them up |
| l0ner | i have 4 in one row |
| l0ner | pager options -> rows -> 1 |
| Strangelv | Well it might be good to lok at it long enough to know what to swipe and to meet the terms -- this function was written by so and so and modified by peter, paul, mary, and young |
| * Strangelv looks. EH couldn't finda salution last time he looked |
| * Strangelv is also still running 3.5.12 |
| *** MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop |
| * l0ner is running 3.5.10 so Strangelev is not so behind |
| Strangelv | "I see columns: Automatic, 1, 2, and 3 |
| Strangelv | Is this another case were we may have lost functionality? |
| l0ner | i see no columns lol |
| Strangelv | I don't see rows |
| l0ner | wait let me try something |
| l0ner | it's the same thing |
| Strangelv | I get it |
| l0ner | if you have vertical panel it shows up as columns and if you have horizontal one (like me) it shows as rows |
| Strangelv | "You have rows because you probably have Kicker horizontal, right? |
| Strangelv | nod |
| l0ner | yup |
| l0ner | and it's not really kicker i have pager on |
| Strangelv | Now you see why I want four columns -- it'll take up less of the letngth of the bar/panel/toolbar |
| l0ner | yep |
| Strangelv | Equivalent to four rows if it were horizontal |
| l0ner | i use OsX like panel at the top of the screen |
| l0ner | well I was using 2 rows/cols when i had vertical kicker |
| * Strangelv tries to remember where he ULed the screenshot of his desktop |
| Strangelv | It's smaller if it's 3 columns |
| Strangelv | "4 would be even better |
| Strangelv | I do admit that I have them set to show applications and wallpaper. So it's one thing I probably already have smaller than I should, but the way Kicker is designed I need to fight for every pixel of length I can get |
| l0ner | anyway this is like me desktop looks now: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/26010362/screen.png |
| l0ner | and I'd like to replace kicker at the bottom with something like OsX dock |
| l0ner | but native to trinity |
| Strangelv | I have way too many tihngs open for that to work easily. I'd be shifting around cronstantly trying to find things |
| Strangelv | I lack sufficient familiarity with the OSX dock, but I'm definitely in favor of more options |
| l0ner | well, I need something that holds only Icons of runnning apps and is able to hold some of my app shortcuts |
| l0ner | MutantTurkey: for building on arch, it is better to use pkgbuilds from aur or tde-packaging?? |

| Strangelv | It's set to autohide. I also have animation for it hidinga and unhiding disabled |
| MutantTurkey | oh nice |
| Strangelv | okay, not disable,d just set to hardly use any frames at all |
| Strangelv | I also had rather fewer applications running whetn I took that shot than normal |
| MutantTurkey | right |
| MutantTurkey | I try and keep minimal on amount of applications. |
| Strangelv | Here's another possible marketing angle: HOW DO YOU HAVE _YOUR_ TDE DESKTOP CONFIGURED? |
| MutantTurkey | Strangelv: thats actually an AWESOME Idea |
| MutantTurkey | i am serious |
| Strangelv | The idea being to show as many wildly different possibilities as possible |
| MutantTurkey | we just need a 1 minute promo clip |
| MutantTurkey | each person on camera says like "i like trinity because ____" and then we have a screenshot |

| MutantTurkey | it's like a crappy car insurance commercial, but awesomer |
| *** Aquarius has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Aquarius | Z_God |
| Aquarius | i finally found it. |
| Aquarius | actually it IS a newer kernel that helped. |
| MutantTurkey | Xu_R: lol see what I just said on the appeal for freedom list |
| Strangelv | Would likely be less worku than my other idea of a cheap shot of showing what everyone else is trying to do |
| Xu_R | I saw XD |
| Xu_R | gg lolol. |
| Aquarius | now i have finally conducted my test. I booted with old Kernel - same audio issue came back. |
| MutantTurkey | Xu_R: like seriously.... pack your bags and go |
| Aquarius | with new one ... it's fine. |
| Aquarius | so i was right after all. |
| MutantTurkey | Xu_R: also, Meeting pad is getting very full. |
| Aquarius | that's the only thing that fixes it. |
| MutantTurkey | the meeting is going to dragon and on :P |
| Strangelv | What's the URL for that again? |
| Xu_R | yea... XD |
| Aquarius | and i'm on back on TDE |
| Aquarius | -on |
| Xu_R | MutantTurkey: this will be a productive meeting; one that we haven't had in months :) |
| Strangelv | ...and what time was decided on? |
| * Strangelv claps |
| Xu_R | decided 12PM EST to get as many people as possible to join :) |
| MutantTurkey | Strangelv: 12PM est |
| Strangelv | "So 11:00... let me update my calendar... |
| * Strangelv is CST |
| Strangelv | Does anyone have a collection of phone numbers? |
| Aquarius | but this newer kernel brings some other issues. |
| Aquarius | for example... vlc doesn't show any movies by now. |
| * l0ner_away is away: ! |
| *** l0ner_away is now known as l0ner |
| * l0ner is back. |
| Strangelv | erk |
| * l0ner is UTC+1 right now |
| Strangelv | my problrem with VLC is that it sometimes want to claim an infinite amount of RAM |
| l0ner | looks more like VLC/decoder problem |
| MutantTurkey | try mplayer. |
| MutantTurkey | It's the best :) |
| l0ner | pure mplayer |
| l0ner | or smplayer, which is simpy advanced gui for mplsyer |
| l0ner | *mplayer |
| MutantTurkey | pure mplayer |
| Strangelv | I have several installed, mostly for diagnostic purposes |
| MutantTurkey | "advanced" means a qt wrapper... |
| MutantTurkey | but mplayer seems to work quite well |
| l0ner | yep |
| l0ner | MutantTurkey: I like trinity becaus it can be just like MacOsX |
| l0ner | well not quite yet, we don't have native dock |
| Strangelv | Anyone got a desktop filled with icons that they wouldn't mind taking a screenshot of for marketing purposes? |
| l0ner | MutantTurkey: I like trinity becaus it can be just like BeOS |
| MutantTurkey | who was looking at that? |
| MutantTurkey | I like trinity because it "just works' |
| MutantTurkey | I like trinity because |
| l0ner | I have a clean desktop :P i use no icons |
| MutantTurkey | "it makes integration easy" |
| MutantTurkey | "I LIKE TRINITY BECAUSE.... |
| l0ner | yep, pretty much |
| MutantTurkey | yes |
| MutantTurkey | I am thinking we'd need some dynamic content |
| MutantTurkey | a promo video? :P |
| * MutantTurkey maybe this is way over our heads? |
| l0ner | could be nice :D |
| Strangelv | only have a dozen things |
| Strangelv | So two video ideas... anyone got a third? A fourth? |
| MutantTurkey | "Calvin Morrison, 17, USA." " I like trinity because it's a no nonsense answer for getting work done" (screenshot below), then cut to l0ner, 105, Alabama " I like TDE because..." |
| Strangelv | Three is probably the minimum number to shoot for doing |
| MutantTurkey | just something like that. |
| l0ner | nah, request a short user-made video (even form webcam will do) in which he says why he likes trinity the most (give him 3-4 sec for answer) |
| MutantTurkey | yes webcam is good exactly. |
| MutantTurkey | I can clean up audio / video significantly. |
| MutantTurkey | I also have friends in video production departments at school. |
| l0ner | great! |
| MutantTurkey | l0ner: okay I am going to commit soon to the tde-packaging reopo |
| Strangelv | That could be one way to do it. Could have dozens along those lines, although I can also see them rapidly getting bmoring |
| MutantTurkey | Strangelv: 3-4 seconds |
| l0ner | i produced most of promo videos for my school tho :P |
| l0ner | I see it: hi-res video showing desktop screenshot and in corner video of user saying "I like trinity because..." |
| Strangelv | So the idea is to have a set of these together for one video. Okay, that could be less borin,g and would then need other ideas to supplement. What does YOUR TDE desktop look like, What do you mean you don't want you 24" workstation display to look like it's your telephone? |
| l0ner | yep |
| MutantTurkey | if people want it to look like a telephone... .OK! |
| l0ner | a promo video like that |
| Strangelv | How do we do the latter one? |
| MutantTurkey | because we need to say anything goes... |
| MutantTurkey | OKAY SOMEONE MAKE A ETHERPAD right now! |
| MutantTurkey | "promo ideas" |
| MutantTurkey | for the next release |
| Strangelv | "We can look like a telephone too, but it's entirely your choice? |
| l0ner | is it wise and droductive choice? |
| l0ner | &PRODUCTIVE |
| l0ner | aaaargh!!! |
| l0ner | i hate my keyboard |
| l0ner | *productive |
| Strangelv | I loved my old 1980s-era NEC keyboard,s but wore them out too quickly and then couldn't find anymore. Plus i was broke at the time. Right now i'd eagerly pay $100+ for one |
| MutantTurkey | I am a die hard for this trhinkpad keyboard. |
| MutantTurkey | but the "dell quiet key" is my favorite desktop keyboard |
| MutantTurkey | http://www.topmicrousa.com/dequkeps2skr.html |
| Strangelv | Right now I have a $15 Kensington. The feel is garbage, but the feel is garbage to me on any rucently made keyboard |
| jumpship | wow, such drama on the ml |
| * Strangelv has been avaiding his email |
| MutantTurkey | jumpship: I know >_> hopefully just ended it. |
| l0ner | i have isle-like (really) low profile keyboard in my laptop |
| l0ner | and i just can |
| l0ner | 't sense the keys |
| MutantTurkey | It just bothers me that someone is so preoccupied with bashing us and wont leave us alone. |
| jumpship | I seen you tried, but it looks as others have too |
| MutantTurkey | It would be a trinity user going on KDE4 ML and complaining and complaining |
| MutantTurkey | jumpship: hopefully I did though |
| MutantTurkey | Go, in peace. |
| Strangelv | Who's doing the bashing? Is this the KDE4 developer that was mendioned in here the other day? |
| jumpship | No matter, time goes on |
| jumpship | No Ilya is the guy from KDE:KDE3 or whatever |
| jumpship | anyway, back to the other topic |
| jumpship | I'm glad I'm not the only one that likes a large left panel |
| Z_God | the problem is on two sides really |
| Z_God | it seems Timothy didn't hadn't certain things very subtly either |
| Z_God | handle* |
| Z_God | both parties have valid criticisms against each other, but for the future of both projects, it's important to prevent these things in the future |
| MutantTurkey | Z_God: no he did |
| jumpship | Maybe, but, oh nevermind, sorry I mentioned it, no need to add to it |
| MutantTurkey | for a REALLY REALLY LONG TIME. |
| MutantTurkey | and clearly ilya isn't competent to pick up on it |
| MutantTurkey | so tim just said it rather frankly. |
| Z_God | but in the latest discussion, it's obvious Tim made some mistakes, this is unfortunate, but it should be avoided |
| l0ner | pad has been made! |
| Strangelv | jumpship: like to contribute a screenshot for the 'what does your TDE Desktop' collection effort? |
| Strangelv | What'sa good place to collect these? |
| jumpship | You'd all laugh at me :) |
| Z_God | at least he reconciled though, I hope Ilya will do as well |
| Strangelv | The idea is to havne a mess of them that look as different from each other as possible |
| Strangelv | The more unconventional, the better? ...or if it's default plus a large left panel, that would wokr too. 8) |
| jumpship | Well, it's different, sure, I'll make one |
| l0ner | give me auto-resizing to it's contents kicker, and icon-only taskbar and I'll submit many different possible configurations |
| * Strangelv is the worng person to ask to do the coding. Even if he had the time, his coding skillset has gathered entirely around scripting languages |
| * l0ner 's too |
| l0ner | well i'd could ttry to do some coding |
| l0ner | or at least look at the code, since theoretically I finished my hi-school as a programmer (big laugh) and I can read c/C++ code and do some basic coding |
| l0ner | I even did a little app in qt4 to handle sqlite db for my maturity exam |
| Strangelv | my last effort at coding in C++ ended up getting too kludgy. ...then I disastrously let someone talk me into trying to port it to Java... |
| l0ner | and now theretically i'm doing ing degree in informatics |
| Strangelv | I was a lot more successlful with Python after giving up on having hiher than double precision floats |
| l0ner | aww... bad |
| MutantTurkey | I hate python... |
| MutantTurkey | C all the way! |
| l0ner | java is pure evil |
| MutantTurkey | (also I don't fancy C++) |
| l0ner | I hate python too, or rather, how it is used |
| MutantTurkey | Java is to C++ like nailing wooden planks on a dog to make an octopus. |
| l0ner | python is nice when used like more powerful bash, to automatize some thins |
| Strangelv | I've got a copy of first edition K&R I'm wanting to go through. I'm thinking old school C might be something i could deal with if i can get past my difficulties with points |
| Strangelv | pointers |
| MutantTurkey | Java is really like C plus plus, minus minus. |
| l0ner | java was made to automate industrial machines |
| Strangelv | Two things in the minus minus column made my effort a nightmare |
| l0ner | no, it's more like c++,------------------------- |
| MutantTurkey | "C++ is to C as Lung Cancer is to Lung. " |
| Strangelv | I needed operators on something other than just the buil-in basics, and I had a very complex, but efficient class inheritance structure |
| Strangelv | Python worked just fine with it. With Java I was destroying any traces of efficientcy jiust to try to get it to wokr again |
| Strangelv | redefining the exact same thing about 20 times over |
| MutantTurkey | ' Being really good at C++ is like being really good at using rocks to sharpen sticks ' |
| *** Fat-Zer_ has quit IRC |
| MutantTurkey | http://harmful.cat-v.org/software/c++/ < read |

| MutantTurkey | my favorite quite though is "If Java had true garbage collection, most programs would delete themselves upon execution. -- Robert Sewell" |
| * Strangelv wonders if anyones' written a'n operating system in Haskall |
| jumpship | What should I do with me screenshot? |
| MutantTurkey | I think so. |
| * l0ner needs to change music queue |
| Strangelv | Can you upload it somewhere? We probably need a place to upload them all to |
| * Strangelv also has one from Tokra that's the same vintage as the one he's shown |
| jumpship | I don't have accounts anywhere, know of something I don't have to create an account for? |
| * Strangelv can't remember the image uploading site he used that keeps things for about a month |
| Strangelv | "But that's be definition only an immediate term solution |
| jumpship | It's small, I could email it to someone |
| l0ner | imageshack? |
| jumpship | http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/249/jumpship.jpg/ |
| l0ner | uh... why it looks to me like nightmare? |
| MutantTurkey | chang your background |
| MutantTurkey | we can't include that :P |
| MutantTurkey | "though I thouroughly approve" |
| l0ner | lol |
| jumpship | I like it, It's really not for everyone, I kinda wondered about the wallpaper |
| jumpship | Something about that pic always interested me, not sure what :) |
| * Strangelv : I may be biased, but I tend to find a much lower tendency among female programmers to be dishonest about their skills, and thus do not say they know C++ when they are smart enough to realize that that would be a lie for all but perhaps 5 people on this planet. -- Erik Naggum |
| Strangelv | I must admit the wallpaper is pretty amusing |
| Strangelv | One possibility would be to change the wallpaper to something less distracting before making a screenshot, but your very customized taskbar is very much the sort of thing that we probabrly want in the customized desktops video. Thank you! |
| jumpship | I'll change it, I often have no wallpaper, but just black is kinda bland for a screenshot |
| Strangelv | "I have some interesting wallpapers to offer. 8) |
| jumpship | Sure, what do you have? |
| Strangelv | See if just the directory link works or if Drupal will show a 404 message |
| * Strangelv gets: IceCat has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete. |
| Strangelv | drat. Let me pick some and havd the links to you one by one |
| jumpship | no hurry, will be back in a few, making coffee |
| l0ner | Starngelv: look at current TIME front page |
| MutantTurkey | did you know adolf hitler made TIME's man of the year in the 1930s? |
| MutantTurkey | juts leraned that. |

| l0ner | uh, I think I don't want to know what just did my cat. But I heard i really loud "thump" somewhere in the house.... |
| Strangelv | l0ner: anyone that Time would tout as a potenital frontrunner is someone I'm inclined by default to run away from |
| * l0ner is going to look for cat... and damage |
| MutantTurkey | fractals eh? |
| l0ner | Strangelv: me too |
| Strangelv | It was one way to create an interestiwng solution and still have large amounts of solid to near-solid color that some people were wanting |
| Strangelv | My normal inclinations tend to be more like L424_085.png at the simplest |
| * Strangelv hopes the cat is okay |
| Strangelv | Which is why I'd like to have more control over the text with the desktop icons |
| MutantTurkey | we're going to need some sort of artwork done for this release... |
| MutantTurkey | is that in the meeting notes Xu_R? |
| Strangelv | Is theer a list of specifications anywhere? |
| Strangelv | without them I might do the wrong things |
| MutantTurkey | I dunno |
| MutantTurkey | also I don't really like tiled backgrounds :P |
| MutantTurkey | we'll need to come up with an idea of what we want in the group though |
| * l0ner found cat, but no dmg |
| l0ner | well, what we need is modern-eyecandy-simple-artwork |
| l0ner | tiled wallpapers imho looks like something from '90 |
| MutantTurkey | I think we need an improved icon theme. |
| l0ner | true |
| MutantTurkey | things like KPowersave look really crappy |
| l0ner | yep, and we need theme that is clean and sleek |
| MutantTurkey | faenza? |
| MutantTurkey | http://tiheum.deviantart.com/art/Faenza-Icons-173323228 |
| MutantTurkey | I like that sort of look |
| Strangelv | A big complain I have with the Crystal set is that the GIMP icon looks great if you have it nice and big on the desktop but is utterly unrecognizable if it's on your taskbar or in a meny with small icons |
| l0ner | great!! |
| MutantTurkey | Strangelv: yeah its bad for that |
| MutantTurkey | also there are many KDE specific icons. |
| MutantTurkey | so either A) we need to improve ours or B) add new icons to an existing one |
| Strangelv | _Do we really need to replace other project's icons? |
| l0ner | I think we'll be able to dig something nice un kde-look.org, and maybe adapt it |
| Strangelv | "What if we had a set that was ONLY for KDE3/TDE projects? |
| l0ner | that would be the best |
| l0ner | but for better integration with gtk/'qt4/kde4' we will need to provide more icons |
| l0ner | at least the default ones |
| MutantTurkey | yes I am looking for one now |
| MutantTurkey | there are projects are just icon themes. |
| l0ner | MutantTurkey: I can't build kdelibs form pkgbuild on my arch vm: http://paste.pocoo.org/raw/507286/ |
| MutantTurkey | I think we need to consider dropping crystal svg. |
| l0ner | crytstal svg is outdated IMHO |
| MutantTurkey | l0ner:X looks like you don't have your X11 development libs. |
| l0ner | D: |
| MutantTurkey | l0ner: key phase "IMHO" |
| MutantTurkey | thats my guess |
| Strangelv | I would be all for keeping Crystal, maybe with some update,s as an option. Possibly even in its own separate package, but an option. The work has been done and a lot of people are used to it |

| * Strangelv 's opinions are never humble |
| l0ner | well, I don't tell to wipe them out form existence |
| jumpship | looks just like it does outside today, thats the other way it looks depending on which kicker panels are hidden |
| MutantTurkey | I think we need to imporove them at the very least. |
| l0ner | and sure, I'm for archivizing them and providing them as an extra |
| Strangelv | :: will look at the screenshots as soon as he stops ROFL for the Ruby page on harmful |
| MutantTurkey | Strangelv: harmful.cat-v.org is my favorite page seriously |
| l0ner | yet, we need something new and something that's all oh-look-how-cool-are-those-icons/theme-i'm-going-to-try-that-DE |
| MutantTurkey | they make fun of everything well! |
| MutantTurkey | l0ner: we need something a bit slicker |
| * Strangelv : At least Perl is hilarious. Ruby does not have the redeeming quality of being funny. |
| l0ner | yep |
| MutantTurkey | but very out of the way |
| MutantTurkey | I think |
| * MutantTurkey favorite ruby quote |
| l0ner | slicker and less glossy, latest trends are likt that |
| MutantTurkey | someone could start a etherpad on it... |
| MutantTurkey | if they would like |
| MutantTurkey | we should bring it up at the meetin |

| MutantTurkey | my screenshot :) http://i.imgur.com/0vshb.png |
| MutantTurkey | I think we should use this by default! its the best :P |
| MutantTurkey | except for my window decorations, I hate them, but cant find a better one |
| l0ner | add it to the pad on meeting |
| l0ner | it will be a long meeting it seems... |
| MutantTurkey | what do you all think of my screen? |
| jumpship | I like your wallpaper, dark |
| MutantTurkey | jumpship: its included by default actually. |
| samelian | MutantTurkey: you still using antialised fonts? :) |
| samelian | I find antialiasing very ugly and slow |
| MutantTurkey | why not? |
| MutantTurkey | (i actually have no idea?) |
| l0ner | wallpaper is nice, window decorations are awful, style don't fit really in the "modern" category, is it "light style" or what? |
| samelian | hang on, I will show you my desktop |
| MutantTurkey | l0ner: yeah mystyle sucks too |
| MutantTurkey | I was mostly focusing on my panel setup |
| MutantTurkey | what d oyou think of that? |
| MutantTurkey | my style is pretty much just good old windows esque |
| * l0ner shameless repost of desktop screenshot: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/26010362/screen.png |
| l0ner | MutantTurkey: I was using that sytle to simulate vintage BeOS look :D |
| jumpship | I never noticed all the new wallpapers, when were they added? |
| Strangelv | So is mine aside from the vertical toolbar, which I've been using since Windows 95 |
| MutantTurkey | plastic is a bit to plasticy |
| l0ner | Polyester is nice, like plastic but less plastik :P |
| Strangelv | which wallpapers? |
| samelian | MutantTurkey: check here: http://thel.ro/desktop.png |
| jumpship | Mine started with a desire to not have a tv anymore, thats why the media player in the corner, then filled in below it |
| * Strangelv needs to stop adding moer links and save screenshots. IceCat is molassas enough as it is |
| jumpship | Maybe I just never noticed them in kde, or I just don't remember |
| l0ner | samelian: looks quite vintage, if I'd was to find this trough google images i'd say it's form kde3.5.9 times |
| MutantTurkey | guys! guys! |
| samelian | hehe |
| MutantTurkey | this conversation ROCKS |
| samelian | I like clean fonts |
| MutantTurkey | because it's exactly what Strangelv said, everyone has a different way to use trinity. |
| samelian | also, displaying fonts in this way is _very_ fast |
| l0ner | I don't even know if I use them antialias or not x_x |
| MutantTurkey | I use antialiasing because with out it many fonts are crippled. |
| l0ner | true |
| samelian | MutantTurkey: you should recompile freetype with hinting support |
| Xu_R | MutantTurkey: no, I'll throw it up there. |
| MutantTurkey | Xu_R: okay :) |
| MutantTurkey | samelian: i'll poke around with it |
| samelian | search on google for "freetype bytecode interpreter" |
| MutantTurkey | with plastik, the qt theme, we should remove those hideous dots on the scroll bars... |
| samelian | http://avi.alkalay.net/2007/01/freetype-with-bytecode-interpreter.html |
| MutantTurkey | thanks |
| * Strangelv thinks... TDE: What YOU make of it? How YOU want it? It's up to YOU? |
| jumpship | I can say this, no other environment let me make my setup, tried them all after the kde4 release, good or bad :) |
| l0ner | and wtf is wrong with you!? TDE can do it! |
| jumpship | Anyone else have a cable guy wanna run a windows disc during install of internet? He was very confused. |
| MutantTurkey | anyway girlfriend got here, gotta go |

| Strangelv | Is that too close to someone else's phrase? |
| *** damiano_ has joined #trinity-desktop |
| l0ner | "You can do it"? |
| jumpship | I can't think of any, but Nike had a series of commercials back during the "Just do it" thing that were sports figures talking about what they could do, thats what made me think of it |
| * Strangelv is stil lfighting with imageshack to try to get the full sized version of http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/444/jumpship.jpg/ |
| l0ner | lol |
| l0ner | imageshach is shit tho |
| Strangelv | It's the single most distinctive desktop arrangement I suspect we're going to find. I really want a good copy of it |
| jumpship | And there was a joke song with Rob Schneider and that was the chorus, I think it was a movie soundtrack |
| Strangelv | It positively screams what we're getting at. |

| damiano_ | did someone fix the tab buttons of the kicker?? They look nicer now! |

| damiano_ | yes |
| damiano_ | they look pushed now. |
| damiano_ | slightly. |
| damiano_ | but it's already just fine |
| jumpship | There was a feature that was turned back on about that |
| * Strangelv is still running 3.5.12 -- he's also discovered he's not with the oldest version running in here |
| damiano_ | ah |
| damiano_ | great |
| damiano_ | now that's something already. |
| jumpship | I'm with ya, Strangelv, 3.5.12 still |
| Strangelv | I need to fix networking on my notebook as that's probmably what I'm going to use to test upgrading from Meerkat and 3.5.12 |
| damiano_ | 3.5.13 is cool, Konqueror doesn't crash on flash anymore. Wheee! |
| damiano_ | and it's damn fast too |
| Strangelv | kewl |
| * Strangelv doesn't use Adobe flash or anything at all by Adobe, actually. Does GNU Gnash count? |
| jumpship | After upgrade, I might just have to go back to konq for web browsing, does it render pages better? |
| damiano__ | can't tell you, but so far i haven't noticed any serious deviations. |
| damiano__ | it could be at the very least used as alternative browser for sure. |
| * Strangelv has generally avoided browsing with Konqueror -- not only has it historically tended to crash, it's too closely tied to the operating environment for his security tastes |
| Strangelv | I do use it for local html files |
| Strangelv | open the page in a new tab |

| Strangelv | I wish Arora was more stable. |
| l0ner | I wish trinity had webkit |
| jumpship | Wasn't webkit a fork of khtml? |
| Strangelv | yes |
| Strangelv | fork may be the worng word |
| Strangelv | it's more intimate than that |
| jumpship | What was the reason it wasn't used to replace khtml in konq? |
| Strangelv | I'm not sure. IIRC the KDE4 version is switchable between the two |
| * l0ner wishes that koqueror could render webpages correctly |
| Strangelv | There's also the problem of who among us is able to do anything about it |
| jumpship | Maybe an legal issue or something |
| Strangelv | ...or do we just rip out the existing khtml functionality and drop in something else off of the shelf, preferably WebKit based? |
| jumpship | Someone was working on getting Firefox's engine into konq, but I think it was kinda difficult |
| Strangelv | That's probably too heavyweight |
| Strangelv | "I'm tihnking Arora would be a better candidate |
| jumpship | Maybe they could all be wrapped in kparts and we could switch at will |
| damiano_ | yes.. now it looks just fine. Hooraay |
| jumpship | The deep buttons thing? |
| damiano_ | yep, and also the gap for tray icons |
| jumpship | gap? |
| damiano_ | well.. like frame |
| jumpship | ahh |
| damiano_ | it wasn't there before. At least i couldn't find it. |
| jumpship | Grab a screenshot when it's how you like it, I'm curious, if you don't mind |
| damiano_ | sure |
| damiano_ | hang on |
| *** jhutchins has joined #trinity-desktop |
| jumpship | Strangelv: Did you get the pic from imageshack? |
| damiano_ | http://89.28.122.14:8081/snapshot1.png |
| jhutchins | Very strange, on my first session about half the left-mouse dialogs didn't work with my serial mouse. Logged out and back in and it works fine. |
| jumpship | That does look nice |
| damiano_ | yep |
| damiano_ | i'm satisfied. |
| * Strangelv looks. He wouldn't be surprised if he's missed something. He's needing to recuperate from yesterday |
| jumpship | A little retro, a little modern, I like it |
| damiano_ | but now back to sound issue...... i thought it's gone, but no. It was gone on newer kernel. But supposedly not because of new kernel itself, but some settings that i accidentaly have made. But those are seen to new kernel only. WHen i get onto old one the old issue is back. |
| damiano_ | yep |
| jumpship | Oh yeah, your Aquarius, I almost forgot |
| jumpship | :) |
| damiano_ | yep, sorry :) |
| jhutchins | Is there a known problem with kdesu or it's equivalent? I'm getting "conversation with su failed" with both user pw and root pw |
| jumpship | I knew I recognized the name |
| damiano_ | yep, that's me |
| damiano_ | actually, i have two xchats running now, and there's aquarius there... but i can't close it |
| damiano_ | old prob by the way. Happens sometimes. |
| Strangelv | standby, IceCat crashed on me |
| Strangelv | "Okay, I definitely didn't have that one |
| jumpship | I might look into xchat, looks nice, in the debian repo or are you on another distro? |
| Strangelv | saved. Tahtnk you |
| damiano_ | Debian, yep. You saw the icon though ;) |
| jumpship | Strangelv: Welcome |
| jumpship | Don't like the X? |
| Strangelv | Also thank you, damiano |
| damiano_ | what for? Screen you mean? |
| Strangelv | yup |
| damiano_ | ah.. np. |
| Strangelv | If we're going to put something together we need all the screenshots we can get |
| damiano_ | sure. |
| jumpship | damiano_: The clock, was that just to have the date or do you hate clocks? :) |
| damiano_ | hahaha |
| damiano_ | i just fixed that :) |
| * Strangelv would like to have an animated analog 24 hour clock somewher on his desktop. |
| damiano_ | i want both date and time... and also i'm using low-res (doh...), so yeah.. i don't want the panel to take too much of screen space |
| jumpship | Then you'd hate my desktop :) |
| damiano_ | http://89.28.122.14:8081/snapshot2.png |
| damiano_ | take No.2 |
| damiano_ | now it's fine. Small, but visible enough though. |
| jumpship | Looks good, why low res? |
| damiano_ | well... old monitor. Don't ask why.... i had LCD 19" one.. and i still do, but i can't use it.. gave it to my sis.. |
| damiano_ | but it's alright, i can get over it... |
| damiano_ | i can do higher than 800x600, but that hurts my eyes... feel uncomfortable |
| * Strangelv needs to get something with a higher resolution than his 1360x768 |
| *** jhutchins has quit IRC |
| Strangelv | When I got this display its low resolution wasn't a minus. it was large and chap and that's what I needed as my eyes were normally 2 meters away from the screen |
| jumpship | I'm down to a crappy 17" with 1280x1024 for now, waiting to get a 42" |
| damiano_ | lowres is very detailed to me though. |
| Strangelv | My display that doesn't work with anything newer than Jaunty is a 17" 1280xd1024 |
| * l0ner is going to relax somewhere |
| damiano_ | i feel pain when i can't see the pixels. Sounds weird though, but.. that's how it is. |
| l0ner | cya guys! |
| jumpship | later l0ner |
| *** l0ner has left #trinity-desktop |
| Strangelv | I don't need to see the pixels, but I do need pixel-level control vitht my mouse |
| jumpship | Why doesn't it work with >Jaunty |
| * Strangelv : [OUT OF RANGE] |
| Strangelv | That becomes my display the moment the kernel reaches the point where it changes text modes |
| Strangelv | I've been iunable to figuer out how to get it to stop doing that so I can even have a working text mode to try to diagnosue and get things working |
| Strangelv | If i can't get a larger monitor I may buy a smaller one to replace that one |
| jumpship | Odd, must be trying to use strange settings |
| Strangelv | It's not exactly a new display, and it always had trouble. I've just been able to hammer it into working shape before. |
| *** jhutchins has joined #trinity-desktop |
| jumpship | This monitor came out of my junk pile, and it's given me no problems, unlike the one that died that it replaced |
| * Strangelv : 8\ |
| Strangelv | I don't have any monitors in my junk pile unless you count the EGA monitors gathering dust in my garage |
| jumpship | X couldn't autodetect anything correct with that one, took me quite a while to get the xorg.conf proper |
| jhutchins | Ok, put myself in the sudo group, restarted, now niether kdesu kcontrol nor "Login Manager" from the Settings/System Administration menu get any response at all. |
| *** damiano_ has quit IRC |
| jhutchins | Oh, wait, there's kcontrol... |
| Strangelv | Have you tried typing them in from konsole? |
| *** Aquarius has quit IRC |
| Strangelv | admittedly I don't know how to invole the login manager from the console |
| jumpship | Login manager? You mean kdm? |
| jhutchins | It appears to be kcontrol. It just takes forever to come up. |
| Strangelv | Is kdesu installed? I seem to remember at least one time weher i had to grab it with apt-get |
| jhutchins | Strangelv: I had to put myself in the sudo group. (Didn't need that with debian kde). |
| jhutchins | This is lenny. |
| jumpship | Isn't kde3 still in lenny? |
| jumpship | I have an idea, one sec |
| jumpship | Look in /etc/sudoers |
| jumpship | I think the sudo group thing is off by default |
| jumpship | Do you have a commented out line like this: |
| jumpship | %sudo ALL=NOPASSWD: ALL |
| * Strangelv went from Debian/Libranet to Kubuntu in 2005, so what he remembers about Debian is largely out of date |
| jumpship | Maybe thats not what thats for, I really don't know sudo very well |
| jumpship | That might be to diable the password completly |
| Strangelv | I don't evsen use sudo most of the time. I set up a root password during setup and always have a root console running |
| jumpship | I prefered that setup, I think I had trouble with kdesu myself a while back and instead of fixing it, went the sudo route |
| Strangelv | I've read that SUDO is actually something of a vulnerability |
| Strangelv | ...although I don't know of an alternative to KDESU/KDESUDO for X apps |
| Strangelv | short ofshutting down X to run it as root |
| jumpship | Bugs aside, I don't know how it could be any worse than su |
| * Strangelv basically never wants to log out of X |
| * Strangelv : 13:05:06 up 27 days, 14:38, 4 users, load average: 11.15, 11.72, 11.98 |
| jumpship | gksu, but I hate the way it fades the screen dark when it asks for password |
| Strangelv | Which is another SUDO style solution, presumably with the same danger, which I admittedly don't understand |
| jumpship | nah, gksu is gnomes kdesu, there is a gksudo too |
| jumpship | well sudo doesn't require you to have the root password, but sudo can be limited to only work with some commands |
| *** Aquarius has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Aquarius | back |
| jumpship | And better than ever? |
| Aquarius | no... unfortunatelly. |
| Aquarius | deleted new kernel. |
| Aquarius | sound issues are back... |
| Aquarius | and also.. synaptic doesn't run anymore for some reason. |
| Aquarius | only asks for password but that's it. |
| jumpship | So stick with the new kernel |
| Aquarius | NO |
| Aquarius | it's shitty man.. |
| jumpship | ok, what versions are you playing with? |
| Aquarius | Wine doesn't work because of it, VLC doesn't play video and probably lotsa other probs |
| jumpship | ahh |
| Aquarius | -32, -38 |
| Aquarius | well i'm back on 32 |
| jumpship | as for synaptic, try it in a terminal maybe it'll give some hints |
| Aquarius | ok |
| Aquarius | hah! |
| Aquarius | i ran it with kdesu and it worked! |
| Aquarius | it's open now.. what da hell.. |
| jumpship | good, I think synaptic's default menu entry uses gksu, maybe it's not installed, anyway, if it works with kdesu, you can prob just edit the menu entry |
| Aquarius | uhu... |
| Aquarius | now for another thing... |
| jumpship | Hmm, my menu entry is already setup to use kdesu |
| Aquarius | how to supply Konqueror with java? |
| jumpship | I think ya just need the pkgs installed, don't know for sure |
| Aquarius | jm.. |
| Aquarius | oke |
| jumpship | My java setup is a mess so I can't really help |
| Aquarius | i wish i had a dollar every time ive heard it.. |
| jumpship | That I can't help? me too :) |
| jumpship | I'd be very rich if I could get paid for things I don't know |
| Aquarius | nah... it's just the word "mess" |
| *** Aquarius has quit IRC |
| *** Aquarius has joined #trinity-desktop |
| jumpship | Thats just me, I learn things by making messes, then I get distracted |
| jumpship | and I don't have java working in Konq at the moment, I think I turned it off, looking... |
| jumpship | Nope, no java in konq, can't help ya, I don't use konq for browsing anymore |
| *** Aquarius has quit IRC |
| *** Aquarius has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Aquarius | now i know why synaptic doesn't work. |
| Aquarius | there are two. |
| Aquarius | one works, the other one doesn't. |
| jumpship | two? |
| Aquarius | yep.. |
| Aquarius | one left from gnome.. |
| Aquarius | even password box is different. |
| Aquarius | that's the working one. |
| Aquarius | the other one.. dunno. |
| Aquarius | Maybe it's Trinity. |
| Aquarius | or maybe.... |
| jumpship | That must be something new in 3.5.13, I only have one |
| Aquarius | i have no idea.. |
| jumpship | Where on the menu are they, right next to each other? |
| Aquarius | no.. |
| Aquarius | just forget it.. nevermind.. |
| jumpship | ok |
| Aquarius | just takes too much time with no advantage... |
| Strangelv | Is Java a mess by design? |
| jumpship | I don't know, everything I've ever tried that used it was a bad experience |
| Aquarius | dunno, but by me it works perfectly |
| Aquarius | only not in Konqueror yet |
| Aquarius | don't you forget, it ALSO depends on audio settings. It may be jerky if audio is not alright. So don't mistake audio glitches for java issues. |
| Aquarius | i''ve gone through this. |
| Aquarius | so by me java is perfect. |
| Aquarius | i test it usually on a picky java based website - playforia.com |
| Aquarius | http://playforia.com |
| Aquarius | i play pool there sometimes |
| Aquarius | and if java has any glitches it's usually pretty much visible on it |

| Z_God | MutantTurkey: it can make sense to drop support for other kernels (than Linux) |
| Z_God | in many cases, those systems are just broken and working around their bugs just takes up a lot of time |
| Z_God | Trinity will probably face much less problems being ported (also because it was already running on many systems) |
| Z_God | but I understand for kwin, they even had to work around loads of buggy linux drivers already, so I can imagine the frustration also working around other buggy kernels |

| Strangelv | Would need some inferfgacre ability, and might require an entire new syste,m exceeding what we can do before the next release |

| jhutchins | Shouldn't there be a "import previous kde settings" dialog box on start-up? |
| Piki | i had the .trinity .kde and .kde3 in 3.5.12, i only have .trinity now with .13 |
| Strangelv | We might havem dane enough potentially system-breaking things that we should have named it 3.6, and then put the planned stuff for 3.6 at 3.7. Maybe also call it 3.05.x or 3.06.x |
| Strangelv | hmm |
| jhutchins | If I do help/about konversation it says "About Trinity". |
| Piki | jhutchins: i don't think there ever was one, but that'd be a good feature to add to the bug tracker |
| Strangelv | I wouldn't make it a dialogue -- I'd make it automatic, unless there's a reason someone doing the upgrade would wvant ot use that moment ot throw away their settings |
| jhutchins | I would make it an All/Select/None dialog. |
| Strangelv | "I also get about Trinity in 3.5.12 |
| Piki | jhutchins: if the old KDE3 was removed, though, then it will still log you in to trinity, so it would only use the new settings |
| jhutchins | Not sure what behavior dpkg would have done by default (Debian Lenny). |
| Piki | My Help -> About Konversation gives me About Konversation, and has About Trinity separate (but still on the Help menu) |
| Piki | ah, lenny, that's 3.5.12 |
| Piki | i didn't get to explore it thoroughly |
| Piki | jhutchins: if you have synaptic install, you can look through and see if you have any of the old KDE packages still installed. or you can use aptitude, or "dpkg -l | grep kde" |
| jhutchins | Piki: If the old KDE was removed, trinity-kdm wouldn't be offering it as an option, would it? |
| jhutchins | I'm still getting konversation taking up 99% of the CPU. |
| Piki | it might have just changed the KDE option to point to TDE |
| jhutchins | What's really strange is that that behavior has follwed me from Mandriva to Debian to Trinity. |
| jhutchins | Piki: That's what I would expect. |
| Piki | i don't know how the TDE packages were done |
| jhutchins | I wish it would leave the menu icon in the corner when I add new icons from the Menu to the Panel. |
| Piki | that's why i'm suggesting to see if the old kde packages are there, if not then that explains why it doesn't see your old settings, so your best bet would be to copy over the config files |
| Piki | jhutchins: normal KDE 3.5.10 moved stuff around on the panel when adding stuff too, so it's not just a TDE bug. it's less frustrating adding everything first and then rearranging |
| Piki | jhutchins: btw, any reason to stay with lenny? squeeze has been out for awhile, and can run TDE 3.5.13 (lenny is stuck with 3.5.12) |
| jhutchins | Piki: 90% because I didn't want KDE4, 10% lazy procrastination. |
| jhutchins | It looks like old kde is still there. |
| Piki | you don't have to install kde4, you can go with one of the other DE's, or install with no DE and install TDE from there, you'll just have to remember to install everything you need to run Xorg |
| *** jhutchins2 has joined #trinity-desktop |
| jhutchins2 | Let's see what kind of mischief this gets us into... |
| Piki | jhutchins2: you don't have to install kde4, you can go with one of the other DE's, or install with no DE and install TDE from there, you'll just have to remember to install everything you need to run Xorg |
| jhutchins2 | Piki: What about upgrade strategies? |
| Piki | as in, upgrading from lenny to squeeze? i'm sure it's possible, i just never tried it, never used debian consistently enough to try |
| jhutchins | Piki: They usually go pretty well, but it would upgrade to KDE4. Not sure what it would make of this mess. The kde programs are still there, but the KDE session seems to be running the Trinity programs. |
| jhutchins | I should probably look at kdmrc... |
| Piki | jhutchins: if you plan to use TDE full time, you can remove the KDE3 packages beforehand, or try on a spare computer or partition |
| jhutchins | Any idea where the session type selections for kdm are configured? |

| Aquarius | hey everyone |
| Piki | hi |
| Piki | oh yes, has anybody configured kmail to use their gpg key for signing? it shows mine, but won't let me select it |
| Aquarius | not me |
| Aquarius | have no need for kmail |
| Aquarius | but i have other issues.. |
| Aquarius | for example, i can't safely remove flash device... it says something about some HAL file.. |
| Aquarius | can't quite remember. |
| Piki | Aquarius: it would help if you can try one, see if you can get the error message :-) |
| Aquarius | what do you mean "try one"? |
| Piki | try to safely remove a flash drive |
| Piki | when the error comes up, tell us what it says |
| Aquarius | alright... |
| Aquarius | on my way. |
| Piki | if it's on debian, it always seems to have trouble with a file called fdi-cache, it always adds a ~ at the end (fdi-cache~), so it can't find the file and errors |
| Piki | but it would help to know for sure to have the error |
| Aquarius | http://89.28.122.14:8081/snapshot12.png |
| Aquarius | yeah, it is Debian |
| Aquarius | it's my phone actually. |
| Piki | Aquarius: i'm getting a message that the server has a limit on the number of simultaneous downlaods and that the limit was reached |
| Aquarius | hm |
| Aquarius | weird |
| Aquarius | nevermind that |
| Aquarius | well, do you see it? |
| Piki | Aquarius: look in /var/hal/cache/. if you see fdi-cache~ (with the ~), but there isn't any fdi-cache (without the ~), you'll have to rename it to remove the ~ |
| Aquarius | hm... ok |
| Aquarius | let me try it |
| Piki | could not connect to host |
| Aquarius | damn |
| Aquarius | ok, wait |
| Piki | after renaming the file, you'll need to do "/etc/init.d/hal restart" |
| * Strangelv : Could not connect to host 89.28.122.14 (port 8081). |
| Piki | without quotes, both the file rename and the command need to be done as root |

| Aquarius | hal that is |
| Piki | lower case |
| Aquarius | i know, i just wrote it here so |
| Aquarius | no such folder |
| Aquarius | http://89.28.122.14:8081/snapshot12.png |
| Aquarius | again. |
| Piki | Aquarius: do you have hal and hal-trinity installed |
| Aquarius | let me check |
| Piki | max simultaneous downloads limit again |
| Aquarius | well it can't be! |
| Aquarius | was alright for others |
| Aquarius | what the hell |
| Piki | Aquarius: it would probably be easier to type the error than upload it to a server, or try uploading to a different server |
| Aquarius | i don't wanna type this shit man.. it's too long |
| Aquarius | but i don't understand why you get such message... everybody uses it normally. |
| Piki | Download limit |
| Piki | On this server there is a limit on the number of simultaneous downloads. |
| Piki | This limit has been reached. Retry later. |
| Aquarius | no such thing man, it's only by your side. |
| Aquarius | and i dunno why |
| Aquarius | but wait.. let me check again with someone ele |
| Piki | my internet works just fine, i just never tried accessing aweb page through port 8081 |
| Piki | ports 80, 8080, and 443 work just fine |
| Aquarius | well.. i can give you 8080, Jesus... wait |
| jumpship | It's working here, says failed due to: |
| jumpship | cannot open /media/.hal-mtab |
| Aquarius | i'm just curious already |
| Aquarius | yep |
| Aquarius | told ya! |
| Aquarius | it's only your prob man, i never heard people say that to me |
| Piki | Aquarius: Strangelv had that too |
| Piki | so it's not just me |
| Aquarius | he said "could not connect" |
| Aquarius | and that's because i shut it off by that time probably |
| Aquarius | let me give you 8080 |
| Aquarius | just out of principle |
| Piki | well considering it's displaying an actual web page complete with html source code, i'd say it's not my internet |
| Piki | unless you just never hit the limit before, there are a lot of people in this channel |
| jumpship | dialog title is: |

| Piki | still hitting the limit |
| Aquarius | pff |
| Aquarius | i dunno man :) |
| Piki | i know for sure it's not me, i've always been able to use 8080 without any trouble at all |
| Aquarius | anyway... let's stick with the prob |
| Piki | anyways, hal and hal-trinity |
| Aquarius | ok, let me check hal itself.. |
| Piki | those packages should be there |
| Aquarius | hal is there, but can be updated. |
| Piki | my system also has hal-info, libhal1, and libhal-storage |
| Aquarius | 0.5.14-3 |
| Aquarius | it's current |
| Aquarius | and 0.5.14-7 is to be installed. |
| Aquarius | better update i think. |
| Piki | i have -3 here, so it should work |
| Aquarius | dunno then. |
| Piki | is hal running? |
| Piki | ps aux | grep hal |
| *** vhumpa has quit IRC |
| Piki | should show a hald process |
| Aquarius | let me check |
| Aquarius | damiano 3677 0.0 0.0 13868 968 pts/1 S+ 19:19 0:00 grep hal |
| Piki | any hald, e.g. /usr/sbin/hald or hald-runner? |
| Aquarius | hald is there |
| Piki | the grep hal only comes from using grep to filter out ps |
| Aquarius | no hald-runner |
| Piki | hmm, then i supposed try restarting hald: as root, runn the command: |
| Piki | /etc/init.d/hal restart |
| Aquarius | ok |

| DexterF | i checked in xev: events are generated. |
| jhutchins | I'm getting strange behavior with kmail. I usually run it forwarded from my lenny/kde3 (now trinity) desktop forwarded over ssh to my squeeze/kde4 netbook. Since I installed trinity, it's giving me dialog boxes for my (should have been saved) passwords, and never showing the main window. If I run /usr/opt/trinity/bin/kmail, it displays the first password dialog and then crashes. |
| jhutchins | Ah, which is what happens when I run it locally. |
| *** Piki has quit IRC |
| *** Piki has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Aquarius | so what do i do next? |
| jhutchins | /usr/bin/kmail on trinity is very slow to bring up password dialogs, still not displaying main window yet. |
| Piki | Aquarius: did you restart hal? i d/ced for a moment thanks to a dist-upgrade |
| Aquarius | it says no such file or directory |
| Piki | what file or directory? |
| Aquarius | /etc/init.d/hal restart |
| Aquarius | this |
| jhutchins | konversation is not using color for nics even though it's configured to. |
| Piki | that looks like a corrupt package, if hal is installed, then /etc/init.d/hal should be there |
| Aquarius | well... terminal says it's not there. |
| Aquarius | and i did root. |
| Piki | the only thinkg i can suggest is to reinstall all the hal packages you can find on your system |
| Aquarius | and it's really not there. |
| Aquarius | ok |
| Piki | corrupt package, or bad internet connection when installing it |
| Aquarius | ok, re-installing. |
| Aquarius | no |
| Aquarius | it's just not there like it's not supposed to be there. |
| Piki | it is supposed to be there |
| Aquarius | well... it's NOT there man... |
| Piki | i'm not saying it is |
| Aquarius | and what am i to do now? |
| Piki | i'm just saying it's supposed to be |
| Piki | if it's not, and reinstalling doesn't help, then i can't help |
| Piki | btw, don't get mad or impatient with someone who's trying to help, people are less willing to help when you do |
| Aquarius | i'm not mad or impatient |
| Piki | "[12:35] <Aquarius> well... it's NOT there man..." <-- from that, it looks like you are |
| Aquarius | listen... |
| Piki | especially since i said it's supposed to be, not that it is |
| Aquarius | just.. chill. And thanks for assistance. |
| *** jhutchins has quit IRC |
| Piki | telling me to chill when i'm already calm is what will make ME made |
| Aquarius | haha |

| Piki | and not willing to help |
| Aquarius | i'm not mad or impatient, just irritated. It's not the only prob i've had. So nothing personal. |
| Piki | i have a lot of work to do anyway, time to go to lurk mode |
| Aquarius | oh well. Seems like i have to re-install everything again. *sigh* |
| Aquarius | just because of some hal shit :) |
| Aquarius | at least to make sure that it never appears there or that was really some glitch by my side and it dissappeard. What else could i possibly do. |
| Aquarius | can anyone tell me which is better ext3 or ext4? I mean... i wanna know what's the optimal option here for today? |
| *** jhutchins has joined #trinity-desktop |

| Piki | Aquarius: if /etc/init.d/hal doesn't exist, then the final suggestion i have is to run /usr/sbin/hald directly, but that's what the file in /etc/init.d/hal is supposed to do, along with setting up the variables and pid file hald is supposed to have |

| Z_God | I hope there will be np tomorrow with the meeting |
| Aquarius | probably your provider or router. |
| Z_God | yes isp |
| Aquarius | ah.. ok |
| Aquarius | listen.. i've got another prob here.. |
| Aquarius | mounting usb device is faulty. I can't unmount it (remove safely) |
| Aquarius | it brings the following error: |

| Piki | yes |
| Aquarius | ok |
| Piki | i can see the pics now, all without rebooting my modem/router :-) |
| Aquarius | ok.. happy to hear that |
| Aquarius | so.. i went and checked Media folder, there's no .hal-mtab file at all |
| Aquarius | only mtab lock or something.. and it's empty |
| Piki | btw, i dont\'t have a /media/.hal-mtab, and i don't have trouble umounting my flash drives |
| Aquarius | hm... |
| Piki | unless it's created when the flash drive is actually mounted |
| Piki | then deleted when it's not |
| Aquarius | well, it's mounted now, and it didn't create anything. |
| Xu_R | yo, mutantturkey \(^ ^)/ |
| Z_God | Aquarius: seems to be a hal issue on debian |
| Piki | Aquarius: worst case, you can always go to a root terminal and use the umount command, that shouldn't require hal |
| Z_God | no idea about that |
| Aquarius | hm.. ok |
| Aquarius | what's the command? |
| Z_God | yes, that will definitely allow umounting at least |
| Z_God | umount |
| *** MutantTurkey has quit IRC |
| Aquarius | yeah, but any parameters? |
| Piki | umount /dev/sdc |
| Aquarius | aha... ok, thanks |
| Piki | you specify whichever device you're umounting |
| Piki | that's the only parameter |
| Aquarius | i understand |
| Aquarius | worked |
| Aquarius | i mean.. firstly i ran the command and then clicked "remove safely". Success. |
| Piki | and to see what's mounted, just use: |
| Piki | mount |
| Piki | with no parameters |
| Aquarius | by the way, it works out of root too. |
| Aquarius | i didn't sudo it. |
| Piki | if it's mounted for normal user access, it'll work |
| Aquarius | ah.. |
| Aquarius | i see. |
| Piki | otherwise, you need to be root to umount |
| Aquarius | understood. |
| Aquarius | i think this might've happened because of me fiddling with newer kernel and other stuff. Probably Trinity played its little magic too. |
| Piki | and if you umount something, the Remove Safely isn't necessary since Remove Safely is exactly the same as umount, except apparently it goes through hal |
| Aquarius | i understand that these are just different ways for the same operations but labeled differently. |

| Xu_R | man, this takes a long time >>;; |
| Piki | Aquarius: if you're using either the kernel from debian's official repos or from debian backports, hal should work fine, i'm using 2.6.39 from backports right now without issue, and the preinstaled 2.6.32 from Squeeze works too |
| Aquarius | i tried 2.6.38 i guess. It caused me some troubles. |
| Aquarius | and weird ones. |
| Aquarius | Wine didn't work, VLC didn't play anything, only audio... and probably some other things too. |
| Aquarius | maybe that was just pre-configured mode that i messed up for newer kernel exactly, dunno |
| Piki | i haven't tried 2.6.38 |
| Aquarius | how do i install 2.6.39? |
| Piki | are you on Debian Squeeze? (i don't know if it's available for Lenny) |
| Aquarius | Squeeze, yeah. |
| Piki | as root, open /etc/apt/sources.list, and add: |
| Piki | deb http://backports.debian.org/debian-backports squeeze-backports main |
| *** Z_God has quit IRC |
| Aquarius | ok. I think it's there actually.. left from my previous attempt... but i'll check. |
| Piki | you can add a deb-src version too if you want, but only the deb version is needed |
| Aquarius | yep, it's there. |
| Piki | then, as root, run: |
| Piki | apt-get update && apt-get -t squeeze-backports dist-upgrade && apt-get dist-upgrade |
| Aquarius | ok.... thanks. On my way |
| Piki | that'll upgrade your computer to backports, then whatever that needs updating that isn't upgraded from backports will be updated from the third apt-get |
| Aquarius | ok :) |
| Aquarius | hmm... i've got too many sources here... some of them are inaccessible... |
| Piki | after, reboot to get to the new kernel. if 2.6.39 isn't there, you'll have to specify it for install, but it should get pulled in automatically by the dist-upgrade |
| Aquarius | takes time.. i gotta filter them out |
| *** Z_God has joined #trinity-desktop |

| ben_ | Trying to get a minimal Trinity Install so I can run kde3's konsole on ubuntu 10.10 (maverick). kded is dieing with: |
| ben_ | kded [kdeinit]: symbol lookup error: /opt/trinity/lib/libkdecore.so.4: undefined symbol: _Z14get_tqt_x_timev |
| ben_ | DCOP aborting (delayed) call from 'anonymous-5679' to 'kded' |
| ben_ | kdeinit: PID 5679 terminated. |
| ben_ | Any ideas what lib that come from? |
| Piki | it mentions /opt/trinity/lib/libkdecore.so.4 |
| Piki | i never had that error, so i don't know how to fix it |
| ben_ | yea I got that. I assume that lib is trying to call another? |
| ben_ | ldd libkdecore.so.4 doesn't show anything missing either |
| Piki | libs don't call each other, programs call the libs, normally an undefined symbol indicates an issue with the lib in question, normally either something went wrong in compiling or something got broke by the devs |

| Aquarius | i've changed the list with help of that website you gave me. Now kernel is being updated. |
| Aquarius | Jesus.. how do i get past this announcement... |
| Aquarius | in terminal |
| Aquarius | what do i push to skip it already.. |
| Aquarius | This version of xserver-xorg-video-nouveau is linked against a newer |
| Aquarius | libdrm-nouveau which breaks the ABI and is not compatible with kernels |
| Aquarius | <= 2.6.33. You need to upgrade the kernel to 2.6.34-rc1 or newer. |

What style and decorations are you using? Aer you doing something really weird and interesting with Konqueror? ideally things you wouldn't be abel to do with anything else |
| Strangelv | Thus my trying to get ones from multiple people who have already done this sort of thing presumably |

| MutantTurkey | 12PM |
| Piki | meeting? |
| Piki | hi Borg^Queen |
| Borg^Queen | hi hi |
| Piki | MutantTurkey: meeting for what? |
| MutantTurkey | for trinity desktop developers and users? |
| MutantTurkey | whats up Borg^Queen |
| Piki | MutantTurkey: i don't know, that's why i'm asking you |
| Borg^Queen | Nothing much, recovering from all the storm damage. |
| Borg^Queen | Lots of it give Irene and the snow |
| Xu_R | Borg^Queen: there's a post-3.5.13 release meeting tomorrow, care to stop in? |
| Borg^Queen | I will. What time? |
| Xu_R | 12 noon |
| Borg^Queen | EST |
| Xu_R | yes |
| Borg^Queen | ok |
| Xu_R | I'll probably be late, slaving away in physics til 12:30 |
| Borg^Queen | I can tell you TDE has been getting some praise locally |
| Xu_R | then with a strict programming teacher til 1:20 >_< |
| Xu_R | :D |
| Xu_R | wait, do you have an etherpad account? |
| Borg^Queen | I do but I never used it |
| MutantTurkey | Borg^Queen: Excellent |
| Borg^Queen | The only complaint is its on ubuntu |
| Borg^Queen | but I really don't care, its not about ubuntu |
| Xu_R | Borg^Queen: no, you had an account before we had the wipeout >>;; |
| Xu_R | request an account again |
| MutantTurkey | Borg^Queen: its on fedora too now |
| Xu_R | and check out what we have so far for topics :) |
| MutantTurkey | and RHEL? Arch is ready... |
| MutantTurkey | also Suse is .... well how is suse? Xu_R |
| Borg^Queen | Don't like Fedora, bad community |
| Borg^Queen | Arch I like |
| Piki | Strangelv: perhaps Borg^Queen can get you some pics of her metallic Mac theme :-) |
| Xu_R | MutantTurkey: fixing up like usual |
| Xu_R | ironically nothing is cooperating with me right now >>;; |
| Xu_R | ok, I'm going to head to dinner early |
| Xu_R | Mom's gotta head to work |
| Borg^Queen | k |
| Xu_R | later all |
| Piki | i tried arch the other day, i could only find 3.5.12 links in their wiki, said there were pkgbuild scripts only for 3.5.13, .12 complained of hal dependencies, couldn't install it, so had to go back to debian |
| Borg^Queen | debian and clones tend to be too gnome dependant |
| Borg^Queen | or has that changed |
| Piki | yeah |
| Borg^Queen | it has changed? |
| Piki | some of the packages that work fine without libgnome-blah-blah seem to pull in gnome stuff |
| MutantTurkey | Piki: what do you mena/ |
| Piki | Borg^Queen: dunno |
| MutantTurkey | why didn't you use 3.5.13? |
| MutantTurkey | whats wrong with pkgbuilds? |
| * MutantTurkey doesn't get why people dont like them |
| Piki | MutantTurkey: i am |
| Borg^Queen | MutantTurkey: like what? |
| Piki | i don't feel like compiling TDE |
| MutantTurkey | with a decent AUR helper, you can do it all automatically |
| MutantTurkey | Piki: meh. all you have to do is yaourt -S trinity-kdebase |
| MutantTurkey | and let it run for a few hours |
| Borg^Queen | on suse? |
| MutantTurkey | no no no this is Arch |
| Borg^Queen | ah ok on the same page now |
| Borg^Queen | Doesn't arch use rpms anymore? |
| Piki | Borg^Queen: pkgbuild scripts are the pacman equivalent to RPM spec files |
| Borg^Queen | yes, I remember |
| Borg^Queen | but no more rpms then |
| MutantTurkey | except automated |
| Borg^Queen | ? |
| Piki | MutantTurkey: i only have a laptop, it heats up a lot when compiling stuff, especially the hard disk, which stops working when it gets too hot |
| MutantTurkey | and integrated heavily into archlinux |
| MutantTurkey | Piki: sigh |
| MutantTurkey | Piki: I have local packages if you want them... |
| Piki | i'm afraid it's going to fail of heat damage soon, so i'd rather not compile stuff until i can get Ark Linux packages going |
| Borg^Queen | true |
| *** gcsimon has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Borg^Queen | piki would it be upgradable from 2008.1 |
| Borg^Queen | hi gcsimon |
| Piki | MutantTurkey: i already have TDE setup the way i want it on my Debian install, i want to keep my spare partiton for ark |
| Piki | Borg^Queen: only if bero switches back to rpm4 |
| MutantTurkey | gotta go dinner |
| Borg^Queen | what version of debian |
| Borg^Queen | how is rpm4 going |
| Piki | Borg^Queen: 6.0 Squeeze |
| Borg^Queen | no way to upgrade from rpm4 to 5? |
| Piki | Borg^Queen: it's not, that's why we're using rpm5 |
| Borg^Queen | What's the latest debian? |
| Piki | Wheezy, which is in testing |
| Piki | and there aren't any TDE packages for wheezye because it's release isn't for at leat 1.5 years |
| Borg^Queen | have all the bugs been fixed for rpm5 |
| Borg^Queen | Granted I should have said latest stable release |
| Borg^Queen | or official release |
| Borg^Queen | I never include testing as a release |
| Piki | rpm5 works fine, bero just needs to decide on what to do about apt-get, he can either use mandriva's apt-rpm5 port, or finish porting zypper |
| Piki | Squeeze is debian's latest stable |
| *** gcsimon has quit IRC |
| Borg^Queen | which is more likely zypper or apt-rpm5 |
| Piki | dunno |
| Borg^Queen | brb |
| *** MutantTurkey has quit IRC |
| Piki | on one hand, more people are familiar with apt since apt-rpm is just the rpm port of the same apt that debian and clones use, so it's easier to help out. but apt-rpm4 isn't well maintained, and apt-rpm5 is fairly recent. |
| Piki | zypper is easier to use because the typing is easier, e.g. "zypper in" instead of "apt-get install", but bero hasn't finished porting it to rpm5 yet |
| Borg^Queen | I see |
| Borg^Queen | that's cute zypper in lol |
| Piki | the best person to ask is bero, but i haven't managed to get any response from him lately |
| Borg^Queen | I know |
| Piki | he's showing up more often than before, but sporadic, so it's still hard to contact him |
| * Strangelv hopes to get something ready for the meeting tomorrow morning. He needs to stop pretending he's awake |
| Borg^Queen | Honestly he needs to make a decision. Stick with it or let it die. |
| Piki | Strangelv: ? |
| Borg^Queen | lol |
| Borg^Queen | Go to sleep young human |
| Piki | Borg^Queen: he has to choose either apt or zypper, or design his own, in order to make it work. OR he has to go back to rpm4, but that involves repackaging EVERYTHING in the devel repos, so could take a long time |
| * Strangelv thought everypone running Debian was running either testingo r unstable |
| Borg^Queen | I used to use Debian |
| Strangelv | "Same here |
| Borg^Queen | But found ark. I' |
| Piki | Strangelv: i need stable :-) |
| Borg^Queen | m still using the 2008 release |
| Borg^Queen | Works great but its a little outdated in some respects |
| Strangelv | I used Libranet to get past its legendarily bad installer, then Libranet expired. After a long wait I found Kubuntu right before the release of 5.10 |
| Strangelv | I only had 5.04 for possibyl as little as a week |
| Piki | debian stable isn't as stable as i'm used to from Ark stable, though, but until i can get TDE packages going, the latest Ark won't be stable :-( |
| Piki | (of course, 2008.1 is the stable version) |
| Borg^Queen | aye |
| Borg^Queen | Strangelv: go to sleep! |

| Piki | btw, Linux support made it to the world of MMORPGs :-) |
| MutantTurkey | where? |
| Piki | Tibia |
| *** Piki has left #trinity-desktop |
| *** Piki has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Piki | whoops |
| Piki | Tibia has an official Linux client |
| Piki | http://www.tibia.com/ |
| MutantTurkey | runescapes been workin for years |
| MutantTurkey | :) |
| Piki | i don't think they have source code, but the client does work if you DON'T use the shell script but instead execute the Tibia file directly |
| Piki | MutantTurkey: that's in java, and it's the only one i know of |
| Piki | though i've seen a few non-online java games |
| Piki | but yeah, java is a given since it's cross-plateform |
| Piki | if i'm not mistaken, most games use C++, and they don't run within a web browser like runescape does |
| MutantTurkey | Not sure |
| Borg^Queen | what is runescape |
| MutantTurkey | I dont really play games |
| MutantTurkey | Borg^Queen: one of the oldest 3D MMORPG's around |
| Borg^Queen | ah |
| Piki | Borg^Queen: MMORPG written in java |
| MutantTurkey | I wasted many an hour as a child |
| Borg^Queen | don't really play games |
| MutantTurkey | quite a feat actually |
| MutantTurkey | they wrote an entire MMO in java |
| MutantTurkey | all the drawing OP's and backend stuff is in C++ or using like OpenGL |
| MutantTurkey | so it's really not terrible in that way |
| Borg^Queen | I always wanted to try WOW but only when it becomes fully linux |
| * Xu_R kicks xchat to stop screwing with his away status |
| Xu_R | back |
| Piki | most of the people i talk to use windows to play their games, and they wouldn't care the OS if it weren't for their games |
| Xu_R | Cedega became free. I'm satisfied in terms of games now. |
| Xu_R | :P |
| Piki | Borg^Queen: WoW runs great on Wine, it just doesn't support linux directly |
| Xu_R | MutantTurkey: Try Minecraft. Also all in Java. And on Android too XD |
| Piki | Xu_R: cedega kicked the subscriptions? |
| Xu_R | yup |
| Xu_R | it's all free now |
| Piki | minecraft? i heard of that somewhere... |
| Xu_R | known as the GameTree Developer Program |
| Xu_R | and anyone can download Cedega now |
| Xu_R | the goal is to get games to work with Wine and Cedega |
| MutantTurkey | anyway, I dont care about games to much |
| Piki | someone i talked to actually said he'd switch to linux except he doesn't feel like tweaking anything to make his games work. he said people got them working, but they require tweaking, and he's too lazy for that |
| Borg^Queen | What I don't get is. Blizzard and companies like it, admit that linux is the better plateform, they would sell just as much or more games, but they don't port to it. Which is easy since they devel the game on linux and unix. |
| Borg^Queen | brb |
| Piki | they don't develop on linux, they develop on mac, which is a different flavor of unix, so it should (theoretically) be easy to port the mac client |
| Piki | and it is theoritcally possible to compile virtually any software on linux provided there's a library that supports the programming language it uses |
| Piki | they would sell more games, but we have to remember the power that MS holds on desktop computing and the power Apple has in tablets and smart phones |
| Piki | the game companies know MS wouldn't be happy to lose busines, and they don't want any trouble. at the very least, they don't want to listen to the complaining |
| MutantTurkey | it really isnt though |
| MutantTurkey | Mac and Linux have different drawing backends |
| MutantTurkey | unless they are drawing in OpenGL(doubt it) |
| MutantTurkey | then you're screwed |
| Piki | most games use directx, which is MS only |
| Piki | so they'd have to convert it to opengl, which AFAIK isn't supported in windows as of vista |
| Piki | though they can compile the opengl libs for windows and include it in their installer |
| Piki | anyways, need to get going for awhile, if you guys can look at my screen shot and send some feedback (PM me, i'll keep my irc client logged in, or email kris@linuxjutsu.com), i'd appreciate it, i'm preparing it for Strangelv's slideshow |

| MutantTurkey | I suggest you pick a IRC nick and register it. |
| MutantTurkey | http://trinity.etherpad.trinitydesktop.org/15 <- this is awesome but totally disorganized |
| Piki | woodsman has been registered since June: /msg nickserv info woodsman |
| darrell | too bad. that is a long time online nick name I have used. :( |
| darrell | meeting is still at 12 EST right? 1 hour from now? |
| Piki | yes |
| darrell | ok, I'll stay logged in but got things to do ... |
| Piki | darrell: if a registered nick isn't used awhile freenode can drop it so you can use it. i forget how long they have you wait, but you can ask in #freenode |
| darrell | anything I should do to prepare for this meeting --- haven't attended one before. |
| Piki | nickserv says that it hasn't been used since june 10 |
| darrell | for this list not using a nick name is no pain --- I have avoided IRC/IM this long and I don't think I'm going to become addicted today. :) |
| Piki | darrell: just read up on the etherpad link from MutantTurkey so you know what we're going to discuss |
| MutantTurkey | darrell: I see you point, but I love IRC xD |
| MutantTurkey | It gives a friendly side of computer projects, just hanging out and chatting, also it makes discussions easier |
| MutantTurkey | email is all business for me, no play. |
| MutantTurkey | darrell: did you ever figure out if 3.5.10 and Trinity can coexist? |
| MutantTurkey | I saw you email but didnt really know the answer. |
| darrell | Re: 3.5.10/Trinity: will be testing soon. T packages get installed in /opt so no conflict there. Main concerns are autostart and K-Menu |
| darrell | got to attend to chores right now so I won't need to miss the meeting. open to ideas about testing Trinity co-existing with 3.5.10 |
| MutantTurkey | Okay |
| MutantTurkey | Does anyone want to make any points not listed in the meeting pad? please let me know |
| Z_God | is the meeting already in an hour? |
| Piki | about about 40 minutes |
| Piki | MutantTurkey: reading now |
| Z_God | hmm, seems something went wrong with the planning |
| MutantTurkey | Piki: if you can clean it up too then that would be good? |
| MutantTurkey | Z_God: what do you mean? |
| Z_God | I understood we had an 8 hour difference |
| Z_God | but it's only 17:23 here now ;) |
| *** darrell has quit IRC |
| Z_God | seems a calculation mistake indeed |
| Z_God | I may be there about 30 minutes later then |
| Piki | it's 12 noon EST, if i'm correct that's 8 in the morning UTC |
| MutantTurkey | Yes |
| *** darrell has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Z_God | I'm UTC+1 now |
| Z_God | and it's 17:26 |
| Z_God | or 5:26pm |
| Piki | my clock reads 11:25 EST, that's 35, minutes from the meeting |
| Z_God | so we have only 6 hours difference |
| Z_God | I just updated the pad |
| Z_God | I will come back as quickly as possible after dinner |
| darrell | do you folks typically keep this channel open all day and hang out here? |
| Z_God | darrell: some do yep ;) |
| darrell | is this a better place to receive Trinity help than the mailing list? |
| Z_God | if you use konversation, it's easy to stay in loads of channels without really realizing it |
| Piki | this channel is 24/7, some of use aren't :-) |
| Z_God | it can sit in your tray and autoconnect, etc. |
| MutantTurkey | darrell: yes its all day |
| MutantTurkey | pretty much |
| MutantTurkey | well I just sit here alL DAY |
| MutantTurkey | ITS A GOOD HANGOUT SPOT |
| MutantTurkey | whoops. caps off sorry |
| MutantTurkey | darrell: its good for small things, like asking samelian about cmake or something general |
| MutantTurkey | FTBFS and patches and stuff are good for the ML |
| MutantTurkey | but both work |
| darrell | i'm frustrated by the kdm problem in slackware. I believe the problem is authentication. I'm guessing kdm is trying to authenticate through some backend like pam. |
| darrell | where do I learn more about how kdm authenticates? |
| Z_God | you have any logs from kdm? |
| Z_God | I suppose you can enable debugging |
| Z_God | also /var/log/auth.log shoud show failed/succeeded auth attempts |
| darrell | the only kdm log is /var/log/kdm.log, which is mostly useless -- very repetitive of xorg log. |
| MutantTurkey | darrell: reading the kdm source? |
| Z_God | darrell: I guess you can enable more logging in kdm |
| darrell | yeah but i don't know c or c++ :). I struggle trying to think my way through C/C++ code. |
| darrell | how do i enable verbose logging in kdm? |
| Z_God | it seems a bit quick to look at the source code already |
| Z_God | I would expect an option for that in one of the config files |
| Z_God | or maybe a parameter |
| darrell | I almost always log in from the command line but I need to test kdm before I post binary packages. |
| Piki | it appears my etherpad account disappeared |
| Z_God | there's probably one to run it in the foreground |
| Z_God | and using that in combination with some verbose or debug options, maybe through some stuff on your stderr or maybe stdout |
| Z_God | yeah |
| Z_God | seems this should do it |
| darrell | within the KDE/Trinity framework, which irc client do you folks prefer & why? |
| darrell | re: stderr/stdout with kdm: how to do that? everything is graphical? |
| Z_God | kdm -nodaemon -debug 0xfff -error mykdmerrors.log |
| Z_God | that should give a lot of stuff |
| darrell | ah -- "-debug" --- firing up VM now to test. |
| MutantTurkey | darrell: I like konversation |
| MutantTurkey | other than that irssi |
| Z_God | kdm --help shows all the options |
| *** Space_Man has joined #trinity-desktop |
| *** vhumpa has quit IRC |
| *** vhumpa has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Z_God | darrell: if you use -nodaemon to start kdm |
| Z_God | you can use ctrl+alt+f1...f6 to get back to it |
| Z_God | I mean to the terminal where you ran it |
| Z_God | and it should still be attached to it |
| Z_God | if you're using a VM, you may need to find out how to send these key combos to it and not to your host |
| Piki | re the hal thing on the etherpad, i thought KDE4 required it? |
| *** vhumpa has quit IRC |
| samelian | darrell: if i correct remember, I ported kdm to cmake only with pam support |
| samelian | MutantTurkey: when is the meeting? |
| Piki | samelian: 8 in the morning UTC |
| Piki | about 15 minutes from now |
| samelian | aha, 19:00 EEST |
| Piki | 12:00 EST |
| Strangelv | 11:00 CST |
| Piki | we're UTC-4 hours |
| samelian | hehe, here is evening already :) |
| Piki | watching the etherpad type itself without my touching the keyboard is weird ;-) |
| Z_God | I'm going for dinner now |
| Z_God | hope to be back in about 40-50 minutes |
| darrell | kdm: I'm trying different debug options --- nothing obvious in any logs. |
| Z_God | trying to log in doesn't produce anything? |
| Z_God | bbl |
| darrell | kdm: yeah, I'm in a VirtualBox VM and Ctrl-Alt-F1 doesn't work or Ctrl-Alt-Del |
| darrell | kdm: log in produces a "Login failed" message, whichis why I think there is an authentication problem. |
| darrell | how do I build without PAM? |
| Piki | meeting in 10 minutes, everybody make sure you're in #trinity-desktop-meeting |
| darrell | slackware does not use PAM. If PAM is hard-coded then that explains the problem. |
| darrell | Slackware provides PolicyKit but using that is not required. I don't have PK running and the KDE 4 KDM works just fine. So the PAM explanation makes sense. |
| darrell | kdm: I see a WITH_PAM option in the cmakelists.txt file. Looks the default is OFF. Do I have to explicitly use that option to ensure PAM support is exlcuded? |
| MutantTurkey | Hello Everyone! we are having a trinity developer meeting in #trinity-desktop-meeting please join us! |
| * Strangelv hastily puts together a 'I'm still not ready but I'd better have SOMETHIG to show' version of the mascot together at the end of the animated GIF ad proposal presentation |
| MutantTurkey | ok:) |
| *** rzs19 has left #trinity-desktop |
| *** Xu_R|School has joined #trinity-desktop |
| *** schreiberstein has joined #trinity-desktop |
| darrell | Just rebuilt kdebase with WITH_PAM=OFF. No change, still can't login with kdm. :( |
| MutantTurkey | schreiberstein: meeting |
| schreiberstein | MutantTurkey: Hello! |
| MutantTurkey | #trinity-desktop-meeting <- go there |
| Strangelv | later, MT |
| Strangelv | Thank you for chairinrg the meetin |
| MutantTurkey | thanks for coming |
| MutantTurkey | :) |
| Z_God | darrell: it seems you should try building with autoconf |
| Z_God | based on samelian's remark earlier |
| samelian | Z_God: I think I put support for password as well, but is not working on my system |
| *** drvodka has joined #trinity-desktop |
| darrell | Z_God: there is no longer any support to build kdebase with autotools :( |
| Z_God | ah it was removed? |
| Z_God | I didn't know |
| Z_God | I thought it was possible to use both.. |
| darrell | Tim was emphatic about using cmake with the core modules. If building with autotools is possible, support no longer exists. |
| Strangelv | Automake broke compatibility with an incrimental revision one time too many, from what I understand. |
| Z_God | I don't know, but maybe it's the only way is the cmake port is incomplete |
| *** Xu_R|School has quit IRC |
| *** Piki has quit IRC |
| samelian | darrell: try to compile it with autotools |

| Strangelv | Ther's still post-meeting discussion in #trinity-desktop-meeting |
| Borg^Queen | hi |
| Borg^Queen | How goes the meeting |
| MutantTurkey | It's over now |
| Borg^Queen | really bloody hell. Xu_R said he's be late so I thought I could work a little later myself. |
| Strangelv | The meeting was tightly paced |
| Borg^Queen | Usually its not :( |
| Strangelv | I'm not used to meetings going that quickly, but that could just be MutantTurkey's style |
| Borg^Queen | Curse your efficiency MutantTurkey |
| *** MutantTurkey has quit IRC |
| Borg^Queen | Oops |
| Borg^Queen | I take it back |
| Strangelv | Would you like to throw rotten fruit at my presentation? |
| Z_God | Borg^Queen: look at his ping time-out ;) |
| Z_God | he was probably already gone |
| Z_God | there are channel logs though |
| jumpship | Maybe a hunter scared him, this time of year must be tough |
| Borg^Queen | Ah true |
| Borg^Queen | Z_God: aye |
| * Strangelv : http://dimensionality.com/tqtde/LB15_presentation_1700.gif -- nits welcome |
| Z_God | Strangelv: looking good |
| Z_God | but you probably want to use screenshots of lower resolution systems |
| Z_God | so that there is more of trinity visible and less of non-trinity related apps & background |
| Strangelv | WE could also zoom in |
| Strangelv | Also, I presume we'd use a higher resolution for a video than 800x450 and encourage the user to view it fullscreen. Lower resoulito is an idea if we can get our volunteers to do that... |
| Z_God | it should be done anyhow for good screenshots imo |
| Strangelv | TokRa wasn't here to volunteer her desktop, but I used the screenshot of it I had anyway |
| Borg^Queen | Strangelv: well done, but see if you can slow it does, on fast systems it goes by in a blur. You should have something like |
| Z_God | screenshots of huge desktops are not really nice to look at |
| Borg^Queen | p4 hi res |
| Borg^Queen | p2 lo res |
| Z_God | Borg^Queen: it was slower the 2nd time here |
| Borg^Queen | fast / slow |
| Strangelv | I ran out of time before the meeting to adjust the timing. Yes, that's a big nit. Any ideas in terms of miliseconds? I could tweak the animation accordingly |
| Borg^Queen | Z_God: ah |
| Z_God | gif timing issue maybe |
| Borg^Queen | 10 secs a shot |
| Strangelv | Most of the screenshots are set for 800ms |
| Z_God | 1 sec per shot |
| Z_God | or 2-3 |
| Z_God | and indeed 10 for smth longer |
| Borg^Queen | Z_God: visually impaired read slower |
| Strangelv | Any nits on the mascot proposal tacked on the end as an afterthought? |
| Strangelv | Not so much becaues I was ready, but that as log as I've been wokring on it I felt I needed to have SOMETHING to show... |
| Z_God | if you're really going for a mascot |
| Z_God | be very careful with what you pick |
| Strangelv | It's actualyl my seriosu ide' -- more serious than I was about the robot |
| Borg^Queen | what mascot? |
| Z_God | so that you won't have to dump it after years of using it like the Mozilla project had to do |
| Strangelv | There was no discussion, let alone vote. I do hope it gets a lot more discussion time than the revision number did |
| Strangelv | What did Mozilla run into? |
| Borg^Queen | Z_God: mozilla didn't dump the mascot, it added, Mozilla is the mum |
| Z_God | similarities with other characters that were "owned" by other companies |
| Z_God | Borg^Queen: they had to drop the green dragon |
| Borg^Queen | Oh yes, and the phoenix |
| Z_God | I would not even know where to start with researching that properly though |
| Strangelv | I couldn't find any open source projects with a crow for a mascot. I ended up trying that because it met Tim's wish that it be an animal -- and that it still managed to meet what I was looking for. Crows can use tools. They can use human words. They're amazingly intelligent and adaptable |
| Borg^Queen | So you want a crow for a mascot? |
| Strangelv | That's what I'm wanting to propose, yes |
| Borg^Queen | That can be done, even if someone else is using one since a crow cannot be "owned" but it does need to have something unique about it |
| Borg^Queen | I like the idea |
| Strangelv | Standalone image without animation: http://dimensionality.com/tqtde/LB15_Mascot_Head.png |
| Strangelv | I gave it early 20th century pilot's goggles |
| Borg^Queen | Cute |
| Borg^Queen | but it doesn't look like a crow, its looks like a generic bird, which could be to our advantage. |
| Borg^Queen | brb |
| Z_God | I hope there are no other software companies with such a mascot |
| Z_God | I remember seeing a penguin before that looked kinda similar .... |
| Borg^Queen | There are several, but its ok |
| Strangelv | Processes for looking for this would be in order |
| Strangelv | IANAL, so I'm not as familiar with ways to look as others would be |
| Borg^Queen | Because animals cannot be copyrighted, only the unique configuration CAN |
| Borg^Queen | oops caps |
| Strangelv | I considered ravens, but they seem to have black beaks. A yellown beak oloks better |
| Borg^Queen | Ravens are my family bird dating back thousands of years |
| Z_God | Borg^Queen: maybe there is a difference between real animals and fantasy ones (like dragons)? |
| Borg^Queen | yes |
| Z_God | I guess fantasy ones could be claimed in some places |
| Strangelv | I defirite0ly would like something simpler than KDE's dragon |
| Z_God | maybe bring back Kandalf ;) |
| Borg^Queen | Mozilla didn't have the money to fight. But fighting has become easy now that the person sueing is responsible for the cost |
| Strangelv | A rule of thumb I've heard is if a pre-tween can draw it in crayon |
| Borg^Queen | brb |
| drvodka | whut |
| Strangelv | Kandalf? |
| drvodka | whut |
| drvodka | oh sorry |
| Strangelv | An earlier KDE mascot? |
| drvodka | whut |
| drvodka | i was testing a script, it wasn't supposed to come out here |
| Z_God | Strangelv: sounds perfect, let a steady handed 9 year old draw the new mascot :) |
| drvodka | whut |
| Z_God | Strangelv: yes |
| Z_God | the one from KDE 2 |
| * Strangelv looks |
| Z_God | http://www.kde.org/screenshots/images/large/kde2final_1.jpg |
| * Strangelv fginds the preusumed plantiff in short order -- not the Tolkein estate as he'd assumed |
| Z_God | dunno why they dropped it |
| drvodka | whut |
| Z_God | I liked it then |
| drvodka | whut |
| Strangelv | There's a company with that name |
| Z_God | ok |
| Z_God | maybe someone can kick that whut bot... |
| Strangelv | But if we could bring him back he wouldn't need to be a mascot. HE could be our Klippy stand-in |
| Z_God | Strangelv: I think kandalf is still the name of the tips program |
| Strangelv | After all, Microsoft learned that while Bob was a disaster, its characters and art assets were a long-term gold mine |
| Z_God | ah no, ktip |
| *** MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Borg^Queen | BOB, I've heard of it but what is it? |
| Borg^Queen | all I find is how bad it was |
| Z_God | I think you have to be even older than me to remember that |
| Z_God | I never saw it either |
| Strangelv | I never actually had it, but I once saw a web site that described it |
| Strangelv | it was aimed at kids and inexperienced users with a house metaphor |
| Strangelv | With integrated applications |
| Borg^Queen | Oh right, the intergrated desktop thingy |
| Strangelv | Clippy, Rover, and other Microsoft characters made their debut there |
| Z_God | it was before windows 3.1? |
| MutantTurkey | oh god |
| Strangelv | I believ ethat's waht it ran on |
| MutantTurkey | Clippy... |
| Z_God | ah |
| Z_God | I did use that |
| Borg^Queen | I hate clippy |
| Z_God | even to get online, but didn't see bob then |
| *** l0ner has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Borg^Queen | brb |
| l0ner | i made it! |
| l0ner | is meeting on? |
| Borg^Queen | hi |
| Z_God | microsoft had this while microsoft agent stuff for a while |
| l0ner | hi |
| Borg^Queen | its over, like me you can in too late |
| Z_God | l0ner: it was 2 hours earlier |
| Strangelv | Clippy was given a crappy job with a task the AI was not up for. Someone DID come up with a revised mission for Clippy that users instantly loved. It got shot down, largely becues it was sending Microsoft bug reports... |
| l0ner | damn |
| Z_God | me & tim made the same mistake |
| Z_God | and maybe others as well.... |
| *** drvodka has left #trinity-desktop |
| l0ner | log? |
| Strangelv | If you don't like changing our version number to 14, you're going to wish you were there to add to the 'nay' column, although after Tibm explained it some more to me I'm a little less horrified by it and the damage control problemts it could create |
| Z_God | l0ner: I guess it'll be here at some point http://ftp.heanet.ie/pub/lincomlinux/MeetBot/trinity-desktop-meeting/2011/trinity-desktop-meeting.2011-11-15-16.39.html |
| l0ner | kay |
| Z_God | Strangelv: you also saw the notes on the etherpad about it? |
| * Strangelv <[lindaemon]> Log: http://ftp.heanet.ie/pub/lincomlinux/MeetBot/trinity-desktop-meeting/2011/trinity-desktop-meeting.2011-11-15-16.39.log. |
| l0ner | yep |
| Strangelv | Onyl brliefly. I couldn't find teh link and still can't sign in |
| Z_God | Strangelv: should be public |
| Strangelv | so by the time I tad the link I was scrambling to look between it and a meeting that was moving faster than I could keep up with alrady |
| MutantTurkey | Xu_R: can you get those logs setup and send out a post meeting thinger? |
| * Strangelv checks his email |
| * Strangelv still has no response from his registration attempt with Etherpad. Is it manually handled? |
| MutantTurkey | Strangelv: sorry If I moved to fast |
| MutantTurkey | Strangelv: afaik yes. |
| MutantTurkey | I couldnt really go any slower because no one was contributing in the beginning |
| MutantTurkey | if nobody says anything I take it to mean we just move on |
| Borg^Queen | That reminds me Xu_R asked that I get an etherpad account, how do I do that. Go to trinity directly and get it from there? |
| Strangelv | You're trying to fill in air time, but some peolp could be multitasking. |
| MutantTurkey | understood |
| Strangelv | "anther possibility: if more people might be showing up late, ask if there's objection to holding a 5 minute recess? |
| Z_God | Borg^Queen: timothy created mine as far as I remember... |
| MutantTurkey | either way the meeting was good. |
| MutantTurkey | Strangelv: I started at 12:05 |
| Borg^Queen | please email out the log |
| MutantTurkey | Borg^Queen: yes it will be out once it sync |
| MutantTurkey | I am leaving that to Xu_R |
| *** grayed has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Borg^Queen | ok good |
| MutantTurkey | hey grayed |
| Borg^Queen | hi grayed |
| Strangelv | I was thinking in terms of others not having things t say. I'd try to offer more trickis, but I'm not quite in prime shape right now and am still trying to recurperate from rushing together my presentation |
| MutantTurkey | Borg^Queen: there is a lag |
| Borg^Queen | aye |
| MutantTurkey | Strangelv: I do like your gif though |
| Z_God | I think the meetings should be slower next time |
| Strangelv | nits? |
| MutantTurkey | Borg^Queen: what do you think of his little clip? |
| MutantTurkey | Also, Strangelv how did you make it? |
| MutantTurkey | Z_God: OK duely noted. |
| Strangelv | I made it in GIMP |
| Z_God | and there should be a bit more time between planned start and actual start ;) |
| darrell | Hey, I updated the About/FAQ pad with a response about comparing Trinity with KDE4. That pad needs some focus by members if we want to publish any time soon. Needs fact checking too. |
| MutantTurkey | Z_God: it was almost an hour though... |
| Borg^Queen | MutantTurkey: pardon? |
| Z_God | also we need the big boss present |
| Borg^Queen | the presentation |
| MutantTurkey | Z_God: well he got confused so I had to start without him. |
| Strangelv | The confusion with the start time didn't help. |
| MutantTurkey | I didn't know what to do honestly X_X |
| Z_God | MutantTurkey: that's ok |
| Z_God | but next time, what I would do |
| Strangelv | Half the peolpe showing up to attend were at teh end or after the end |
| MutantTurkey | the time from now on will be 12PM |
| Z_God | try to go over only the topics for which he is not so important |
| MutantTurkey | Z_God: yes |
| Z_God | and postpone any other topic |
| MutantTurkey | I am glad we came to a concensus about the RElease date |
| MutantTurkey | i mean release topic |
| MutantTurkey | i man the release name |
| Borg^Queen | MutantTurkey: setting a time is very hard |
| MutantTurkey | I mean the release number |
| MutantTurkey | >doesnt know what he is saying |
| Strangelv | well, decision, not consensus |
| MutantTurkey | Borg^Queen: 12PM EST is going to be now standard |
| MutantTurkey | because 90% of the world is awkae |
| Borg^Queen | logical |
| Z_God | but it's dinner time here ;) |
| MutantTurkey | setting it later makes it impossible for europeans to make it |
| Strangelv | I can offer no better suggested time |
| MutantTurkey | Z_God: I know exactly why I made it noon |
| MutantTurkey | if i made it 7PM, you would be well asleep |
| Strangelv | ...and if anything Europe is even more important for us than North America |
| grayed | hi all. thanks for clarification about the time, :) I missed all the fun due to the late fix of MSK time there |
| Z_God | MutantTurkey: you made it 6PM |
| MutantTurkey | Z_God: -_- |
| MutantTurkey | I made it 12PM Noon EST |
| Strangelv | If you're going hto cut a continent out of the meeting, it had better not be Europe |
| MutantTurkey | grayed: yes sorry, it's always a hassle to get timing done correctly. |
| Z_God | MutantTurkey: but I realized where the confusion came from |
| MutantTurkey | I was clear in the emails. |
| Z_God | I wrote 16h then |
| MutantTurkey | anyway... :P |
| Strangelv | Standardizing could definitely help with the confusion |
| Z_God | and it seems you read it as 6, and that's why it appeared to be 8 hours difference |
| MutantTurkey | Strangelv: exactly |
| Z_God | we only have 6 though |
| Strangelv | Ther are some who will never be able to attend, but that would be the case at any chosen time |
| Z_God | I guess you're are really unused to 13+ hours there |
| Z_God | for us am & pm is confusing ;) |
| MutantTurkey | THAT IS WHY I SAID NOON! |
| MutantTurkey | sorry for caps, using a silly mac |
| Strangelv | People here look at me like a nutcase when I give them 24 hour times. |
| MutantTurkey | i figured, noon is noon. |
| Strangelv | That doesn't stop me -- I don't like 12 hour times as they're too prone to being ambiguous |
| Borg^Queen | lol |
| Z_God | the best thing to do is also add GMT at least |
| Z_God | everybody knows their time based on GMT |
| Strangelv | well, most people in this crowd, anyway |
| Z_God | Strangelv: 24 hour ftw! |
| MutantTurkey | not everyone knows that. |
| MutantTurkey | 24 hour GMT next time |
| Z_God | MutantTurkey: ok, but that would cover it in addition to your timezone I'd say |
| MutantTurkey | okay |
| MutantTurkey | what time zone is everyone from? |
| MutantTurkey | (trying to get an approximate idea) |
| Strangelv | If most peolp ein Europe know GMT, GMT and Eastern Time? |
| Z_God | GMT+1 here (+2 in summer) |
| Strangelv | "DO we need a reference point east of GMT, say Moscow or similar? |
| MutantTurkey | ... |
| grayed | GMT+0400 (MSK after recent changes in Russia) |
| Z_God | Moscow is stuck at GMT+4 now |
| Z_God | grayed: думаешь тоже это ужасно? ;) |
| Borg^Queen | We all need to meet in null time. Back to building a TARDAS. |
| grayed | less info means less errors in it, I'd go with GMT only :) |
| Strangelv | If you need storage space too you'll want to grow one -- the built ones exist in normal space |
| grayed | Z_God: по крайней мере часовых поясов стало меньше, если ты об изменениях от Медведа :) |
| * Strangelv needs the storage space less after moving into a 4 bedroom house. |
| Borg^Queen | grayed: simplicity speaks accurate volumes |
| Z_God | grayed: yeah, that's true, but it's annoying there's so much time between us |
| *** drvodka has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Strangelv | If the clock is still the topic, the Moon Society holds its meetings at 21:00 Eastern time. This not only makes it a little too early for people on the west coast, it also means that the guy in Ireland when he makes it it's in the wee hours of the morning. When we had a director in Australia he was on in the early afternoon... |
| Borg^Queen | Strangelv: I like your presentation and would like to offer my metallic desktop setup screenshots. |
| Strangelv | "GO right ahead. I could try to tweak the prototype, but someone has suggested lowering the screen resolutions |
| Strangelv | The core idea is to see if we can show things that you can't do with other environments |
| MutantTurkey | Strangelv: I think we need more time between them though |
| MutantTurkey | but starting slowly |
| MutantTurkey | then rapidly speeding up |
| MutantTurkey | until flickering by |
| MutantTurkey | then Super Imposing the TDE Logo |
| Strangelv | I picked the last one carefully -- Jumpship's desktop is the most mind-bogglingly unique I've seen |
| MutantTurkey | and under neath flash "how do you do trinity?" |
| MutantTurkey | what do you think of that? |
| MutantTurkey | also we probably will want to do this in a real movie editor |
| MutantTurkey | gimp might not be the best tool |
| Strangelv | Any ideas about the mascot concept that I took out of the bag, admittedly with insufficient preparation? |
| MutantTurkey | I'd like to just upload a video also |
| MutantTurkey | I am totally indifferent about any mascot honestly |
| *** darrell has quit IRC |
| Borg^Queen | MutantTurkey: I have one word for you |
| Borg^Queen | THANKSGIVING! |
| Strangelv | The animated GIF solution in GIMP was what I know how to do and enabled me to get something done in time for the meeting. It's not ideal for serious video for multiple reasons -- actually the most serious of which isp robably the limited color palette |
| Borg^Queen | Strangelv: I have a multipart solution |
| Strangelv | Then there's the problem with getting audio to it even if it can be timed with milisecond accuracy in Audacity to match the animation |
| Borg^Queen | Create pngs, then use digikam to create an mpg, then convert it to flv |
| Borg^Queen | you have two small video options |
| Z_God | Borg^Queen: why flv? |
| Strangelv | I would gladly hand the action item over to someone else. I'm always a walking bottrleneck danger |
| drvodka | if you have pngs, use the -mf option on mencoder to make a video from them |
| Borg^Queen | small file size |
| MutantTurkey | flv NO |
| Z_God | the best thing is something that actually works in our current Konqueror |
| MutantTurkey | we will just upload it to youtube as an AVI |
| Borg^Queen | oooh sorry I mean omv |
| Borg^Queen | or ogv |
| MutantTurkey | youtbue is the best place imho |
| Borg^Queen | sorry |
| MutantTurkey | everyone can see it there. |
| Strangelv | flv is sort of like JPEG -- it's what you end up with for certian situations |
| Borg^Queen | youtube aye |
| MutantTurkey | plus we dont have to stream it |
| Z_God | otherwise yep ogv or webm |
| Strangelv | YouTube is phasing out FLV -- upload their new fgormtat and I belien it will convert to flv for backwards compatibility purposes for you |
| Z_God | MutantTurkey: does youtube work again in the new konq 3.5.13? |
| MutantTurkey | webm/html5 |
| MutantTurkey | Z_God: no idea. |
| Strangelv | I have no idea. I use YouTube with Firefox's UnPlug -- download to disk and play with VLC |
| Z_God | the konq from trinity can handle quite a bit |
| * Strangelv refuses to install anything Adobe |
| Z_God | but it needs to be semi targetted nowadays |
| Borg^Queen | what is youtube using now? |
| Strangelv | YouTube's primary seems to be .webm |
| Borg^Queen | Strangelv: I'm with you on adobe |
| drvodka | most h264+mp3 in mp4 i think |
| Borg^Queen | webm is that google video right |
| Borg^Queen | I don't trust google |
| Strangelv | I believe so |
| Z_God | it's vp8 with vorbis |
| Strangelv | So it's sort of like Tehora |
| Strangelv | Theora being IIRC a vp2 variant |
| drvodka | oh, i just checked a yuoutube video, h264+aac in mp4 |
| Z_God | Borg^Queen: it's the only free modern format there is |
| Strangelv | Theora is also free, but is an older technology |
| Borg^Queen | Free for now |
| Z_God | actually I'm in Europe, so the rest is free enough for me as well ;) |
| Borg^Queen | lol |
| Borg^Queen | doc, YT is using multi format for now it seems |
| Strangelv | Yes |
| Strangelv | .webm, mp4, and flv |
| Strangelv | possibyl in that order |

| Borg^Queen | is jolt cola still on the market? |
| * Strangelv isn't using anything recent enough to have anyone to nominate |
| Strangelv | I honestly don't kinow |
| Strangelv | I stopped caffeine cold turkey just a few days shy of exactly 20 years ago |
| MutantTurkey | what bird is that? |
| Borg^Queen | ? |
| Strangelv | :: holds up a hermetically sealed glass cylinder with the amount of X you get to use after quitting X 'cold turkey' |
| Z_God | it's a special dish |
| Z_God | made of turkey |
| Borg^Queen | What is X? |
| Z_God | it has to be cold, with some salad |
| Borg^Queen | Revenge? |
| Z_God | and a coffee flavoured sauce |
| * Strangelv may need a different term to use. HE's a vegetarian |
| Z_God | there's some caffeine in that |
| MutantTurkey | no i am talking about the mascot. |
| Borg^Queen | Strangelv: likewise |
| MutantTurkey | LOL |
| Z_God | that's why it's called caffeine cold turkey |
| Borg^Queen | That's the mascots name? |
| Borg^Queen | I can live with that, but I thought it was a crow? |
| Z_God | lol |
| Strangelv | X as I used it was a variable. in my case, X was caffeine after i broke a promise to myself tever to use caffeine pills again |
| Z_God | I was just joking |
| Strangelv | My relationship with caffeine was seriously abusive |
| MutantTurkey | 20 year ago? I was not yet born |
| Strangelv | I was in the Air Force |
| Borg^Queen | Strangelv: java monkey hard to shake aye? |
| Z_God | as if MutantTurkey asked what caffeine cold turkey was for a kind of bird |
| Strangelv | I managed to avoid getting hooed on coffee -- probabyl because I don't like hot beverages |
| Borg^Queen | pardon, you hoed yourself for coffee? |
| MutantTurkey | a good cup of joe in the morning helps me go |
| Strangelv | LB15 doesn't have a name. It's based on what I courld remember of a sketch I did, but I couldn't remember the date, so it's LB15 instead of L8?? or so |
| Borg^Queen | Soda is my caffpow |
| Strangelv | I had a flaming alcoholic point to my soda can and tell me that that soda meant as much to me as a beer did to him |
| Borg^Queen | lb15 is the crow's name?> |
| Strangelv | It's a code. Not a name. iT lacks a name |
| Strangelv | Just like the robot |
| Borg^Queen | Spiffy the Crow |
| Z_God | Trinny :P |
| Borg^Queen | too obvious |
| Strangelv | It's a cryptic dating scheme I came up with in 197 when i was trying to cram as much as I could into a 8.3 compliant filename |
| Borg^Queen | Ooh "Tick" |
| Strangelv | hmm |
| Strangelv | Tick as an homage to gears? |
| Z_God | what about Timothy? |
| Borg^Queen | Aye, timeless eh? |
| Borg^Queen | Z_God: oh harsh lol |
| Z_God | or just Timmy |
| MutantTurkey | we cannot name it tim |
| MutantTurkey | tim is already named tim! |
| Z_God | Timmeh! |
| Borg^Queen | TIMMY! sounds like the kid in South Park |
| MutantTurkey | yeah. |
| Borg^Queen | lol |
| Z_God | Borg^Queen: exactly ;) |
| MutantTurkey | we dont need anyone who has mental issues runnin this gigi |
| Borg^Queen | Z_God: evil minds think alike |
| Borg^Queen | I mean great minds |
| Z_God | would be a cool mascot though :) |
| Strangelv | Yeah, setting up name confusion for future meetings wouldbe a problem best described as self-inflicted |
| Borg^Queen | o0 |
| Z_God | Borg^Queen: lol |
| Borg^Queen | Strangelv: true |
| Z_God | next time we can all join the channel meeting channel with other nicks |
| Z_God | and the best one will be the mascot name |
| * Strangelv watches the mascot claim control of the gavel during the meeting and rules his motion out of order |
| Borg^Queen | Bloody hell |
| Borg^Queen | heck heck I mean heck |
| * Strangelv sulks |
| Borg^Queen | ??? |
| Borg^Queen | Plus, there can be 2 other mascots |
| Strangelv | The chair actually, if Robert's Rules are followed, doesn't actually have that much control over business once the meeting starts |
| Borg^Queen | The Trinity get it? |
| Borg^Queen | The chair is ajust a mediator |
| Strangelv | I'm trying to avoid that as I'm adamwantrly wanting to avoid any confusion over relicious |
| Borg^Queen | Point of fact: I hate Robert's rules of order |
| Strangelv | "Yes. The chair only is supposed to vote when his or her vote would change the outcome of the vote |
| Borg^Queen | tie breaker aye |
| MutantTurkey | ? |
| Strangelv | I have about 10 years of experience with it and probably need to break down and buy a copy |
| Strangelv | actually, it's slightly different than tie breaking |
| Borg^Queen | >: |
| MutantTurkey | roberts rules of order pish posh |
| Borg^Queen | agreed |
| Borg^Queen | CHOAS forever! |
| Strangelv | IIRC the chair could also muscle in if one's vote could cause a tie |
| MutantTurkey | If nobody ran the meeting it would be well offtopic in a second |
| Borg^Queen | CHAOS I mean |
| Borg^Queen | MutantTurkey: and your point being??? |
| Strangelv | You can have chaos under Robert's Rules. Chaos is not to be confused with randomness |
| MutantTurkey | that someone has to order it |
| Borg^Queen | lol |
| Z_God | what about Ytinirt? |
| Borg^Queen | Well I am the queen |
| * Strangelv long ago lost track of the number of meetings he's chaired. he can probably count all of the conventions, though |
| Borg^Queen | ouch |
| MutantTurkey | also irc is different than real life a bit |
| Strangelv | wel,l actually with precinct conventions that rapidly gets ambiguous... |
| Strangelv | I believe I've chaired three county conventions. |
| *** joeytwiddle has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Strangelv | IRC and other chat systems have teh same advantages and disadvantages. Key one being that you can look up and see what was said a moment ago |
| Borg^Queen | joeytwiddle: hi |
| Borg^Queen | right, I'm off. Hopefully I'll bbl |
| Strangelv | I have a lot less trouble in an online meeting. The worslt is a telephone meeting with all the real-time of an in person meeting and none of the benefits. Plus you can hear all sorts of interesting sounds, even more interesting if the meeting is an international one |
| Z_God | Strangelv: I actually think it sucks IRC doesn't have history, Jabber MUCs frw |
| Z_God | ftw* |
| Strangelv | family members yelling at each other in Italian and Japanese |
| Strangelv | ftw? |
| Z_God | for the win |
| Z_God | when you join a jabber muc |
| * Strangelv will try to remtember that |
| Z_God | you just see what was said before |
| Strangelv | I've admittedly not been on Jabber for years, and that was mostly to connect to AIM |
| Z_God | on IRC, the first few bits never make sense for a newcomer |
| Borg^Queen | Z_God: what do you mean doesn't have history |
| Z_God | Borg^Queen: yes, I never got the history of a channel on IRC when I joined it |
| Strangelv | I lost my ... list well before then. ...and at the moment I can't even remember what it is/was. Mirabelis before AOL bought them |
| Borg^Queen | Z_God: Oh I see |
| Z_God | with Jabber MUCs this is default |
| Borg^Queen | well I'm off. later lads |
| Z_God | you get a large part of the history, as much as your client requests I guess |
| *** Borg^Queen has quit IRC |
| * Strangelv waited a long, long time to break down and join the propiretary IM protocol and still got a number that was only 2 million something |
| MutantTurkey | cya Borg |
| * Strangelv waves belated/y |
| Strangelv | Skype also hasa distory you can mine |
| Strangelv | if you're using it for text chat |
| Z_God | skype has everything you don't want |
| Z_God | and nothing you do want |
| Z_God | at least last time I used it |
| Strangelv | I'm running... 2.2 |
| Strangelv | IIRC 4 for MS windows is a show-stopper if you're tyringto participate in a text meeting |
| Z_God | I don't know what I was using |
| Z_God | it was about 6 months ago |
| Z_God | latest for lucid |
| Z_God | text messages never arrived |
| Z_God | and of course it still doesn't interoperate |
| MutantTurkey | skype is terrible. |
| Z_God | and the UI is just a mess |
| Strangelv | I've recently refreshed my history on the weekly skype discusison i participate in |
| Z_God | I use Psi+ for IM now |
| Strangelv | It still goes back to 15 May |
| Strangelv | In this case the choice wasn't mine anyway |
| Z_God | yes, I was also forced at work to use it |
| Z_God | so I only used it with my bosses |
| Z_God | but most of the time I had to e-mail everything anyhow |
| Strangelv | I was invited to a meeting of a close gorup of insiders on a specific topic, many of whom -- including the person running the informal meetings -- didn't know me boferehand |
| Z_God | because it would not arrive with skype |
| Z_God | yeah it's always strange when people use smth like that then |
| Z_God | better use normal jabber or irc, so everybody can choose their own program |
| Strangelv | I probably should get on jabber again sometime. Can't be where I used to be, as that system went down years ago and I was its sole user for about its final year: jabber.asi.org |
| Z_God | Strangelv: maybe you already have a jabber address somewhere |
| Strangelv | My main hangout is technicalyl a MUD |
| Z_God | many free mail providers also do jabber for example |
| Strangelv | strangelv@jabber.asi.org -- only jabbher.asi.org ceased to exist years ago |
| Z_God | just use the address from a jabber client & it'll work |
| Strangelv | or was it jamesg? I actually can't remember anywore |
| Strangelv | There are multiple MOO-compatible clients that can connect to moo.asi.org port 7777 |
| Strangelv | Right now I use GNOME MUD |
| *** l0ner has quit IRC |
| Strangelv | before I finally made the upgrade to 64 bits I was using Papaya, only the 64 bit builds crashed almost instantly, and there was no longer an upstream |
| Z_God | MUD is like a game right? |
| Z_God | Strangelv: btw you don't have smth like gmail? |
| Strangelv | In a pinch the user can connect with TELNET or even at least one IRC client -- but like IRC you can't get a history of what's been happening in the background. It's an older techology and it shows in many regards, although the flebixility it provides can be fun |
| Strangelv | I don't have or use gmail |
| Strangelv | Google already knows more than I want them to about my habits and friends |
| Z_God | hehe ok |
| Z_God | maybe another free mail address |
| Z_God | it depends a bit, but more & more are also supporting chatting over jabber |
| Strangelv | I'm washing I had a good alternative to their search engine. For most searches I've used a wrapper: https://ssl.scroogle.org |
| Z_God | also ISPs I guess |
| Strangelv | I've used the same email address since 1997 |
| Z_God | ok |
| Z_God | I was not using e-mail then... |
| Z_God | my English was kinda limited :S |
| Strangelv | a small, struggling computer game company you've never heard of unless you were part of the Quake I gaming scene in mid 1997, in which case you may have merely forgotten us |
| Strangelv | I wish i had any capabilities with a non-coding language that wasn't English |
| Z_God | no I still play Commander Keen |
| *** grayed has left #trinity-desktop |
| Z_God | till this day |
| Strangelv | I've even forgotten most of the German I was throwing around as a haphazard horror when trying to commtunicate with Germans who spoke no English -- which off-base was most of them |
| Z_God | it's never too late to learn a language |
| Z_God | but you need to have a good motivation |
| Strangelv | It also helps to not have serious brain fog |
| Z_God | someone or certain people to speak with |
| Strangelv | Point taken there |
| Z_God | you will always forget it again otherwise |
| Strangelv | I've read that Esperanto can be a useful on-ramp -- first learn esperanto to learn a language designed to be easy to learn, then try another language -- the example the article used was French |
| Z_God | you mean when you grow up with really one language? |
| *** exc_ has quit IRC |
| Z_God | otherwise, I don't think it would be really needed I guess |
| * Strangelv is also wanting to construct a non-human language for a story setting he's referring to 's 'Misused Sword', but it's on a Lord of the Rings scale and he needs to write a few other things first. He way not be able to complete it in his lifetime |
| Strangelv | There are people in this area woh also speak Spanish, but the only people who got any Spanish lessons prior to high school or so were people woh could speak it already |
| Z_God | I'm trying to study polish right now actually |
| Z_God | I will have a test tomorrow ..... |
| * Strangelv looks for a polish video with English subtitles to show Z |
| Z_God | it's written thank god |
| Strangelv | This could motivate you to try to follow the spoken. 8) |
| Strangelv | ...if I can find it... |

| Strangelv | yup |
| Z_God | looks like polish at least :) |
| Z_God | dziękuję! |
| * Strangelv is compretely at the mercy of the subtitles |
| Z_God | I can understand some bits & pieces |
| MutantTurkey | if someone speaks during our promo video |
| MutantTurkey | I think it should be someone who can actually speak clear english |
| MutantTurkey | (nothing against european/russians, but you can often be difficult to understand) |
| Z_God | MutantTurkey: native speaker is always better |
| Z_God | nobody will argue about that |
| Z_God | Strangelv: I'm going to send this around to the group :) |
| Z_God | it even contains quite a few words we have to learn quite clearly |
| MutantTurkey | aye |
| Strangelv | I'm glad you enjoyed it. I just wish there was a higher resolution version I could find |
| samelian | MutantTurkey: find for a texan, I like texan accent :) |
| * Strangelv is from Texas but lacks a Texas accent. He never had one |
| MutantTurkey | samelian: you watch to many old movies I think. |
| samelian | haha |
| MutantTurkey | all americans are not John Wayne |
| Z_God | Strangelv: especially the beginning is hilarious |
| Z_God | although I don't understand the polish |

| Strangelv | Just don't call for the ambulance from Lodz |

| samelian | Strangelv: how is correct: "devices was enumerated" or "devices has enumerate" |
| samelian | I don't know when I should use "was" and when "has" |
| samelian | is the same with "devices have been enumerated"? |
| samelian | english is hard :) |
| Z_God | samelian: you have to give more context |
| Z_God | also was & has are 3rd person singular only |
| Z_God | you need to use the regular form for 3rd person plural |
| samelian | what is difference between has and was? |
| Z_God | you know russian right? |
| samelian | pretty good |
| Z_God | was -> был |
| Z_God | has -> у его/кого |
| Z_God | was is a form of to be, in the past |
| Z_God | and the full form in this case is: to be enumerated |
| samelian | I undestood, but is still unclear for "has" |
| Z_God | you can use have to express a perfective form as well in english |
| Z_God | and that is what you are trying here |
| Z_God | but because the full form is "to be enumerated" you have to keep this "to be" which changes to "been" |
| samelian | you mean, "have been" |
| samelian | ? |
| Z_God | yes, this is correct to have a perfective form |
| Z_God | the devices were enumerated would mean almost the same here though |
| samelian | aha, I forgot about "were" |
| Z_God | also, have been makes it passive |
| samelian | hmm, so many form to express a single thing :) |
| Z_God | so I guess that would be the most suitable form |
| samelian | russian is a lot simpler :) |
| Z_God | with tenses, I guess yes ;) |
| samelian | "был" and that's all :) |
| Z_God | what about a passive form then? |
| Z_God | I haven't learned that yet |
| Z_God | so I really don't know it |
| samelian | I have no ideea, I learned english on the fly :) |
| Z_God | I mean in Russian |
| samelian | I have no english formal studies |
| samelian | aha |
| Z_God | I don't know how to say for example "he was seen" |
| Z_God | in Russian |
| Z_God | because I haven't learned the passive contruction yet |
| Z_God | or maybe easier "he is seen" |
| samelian | hmm, i'm not sure that is direct traductible |
| samelian | translatable |
| samelian | bleah |
| Z_God | hehe |
| Z_God | I'll probably learn it some time |
| samelian | evo vidali, for "he was seen", i guess |
| Z_God | so it would really be "they saw him"? |
| Z_God | there's no passive? |
| samelian | i'm not sure what is "passive" |
| Z_God | when the subject isn't performing the action described by the verb |
| Z_God | he's not seeing himself when he is being seen |
| Z_God | I'll ask a rusisan friend, sec |
| samelian | or ""he was seen" = "evo videli" |
| samelian | i have no ideea, when I speak, i choose correct form instinctively, I don't think about grammar :) |
| Z_God | I have the same with english |
| Z_God | but you're switching the subject to "they" in those sentences in Russian |
| Z_God | so that его is the object there |
| Z_God | and it becomes an active sentence |
| samelian | yes, when I speak russian I rephrase it |
| Z_God | my friend also said он видмый |
| Z_God | but that's just a verb made into an adjective |
| Z_God | видимый* |
| samelian | this meaning "is visible" or something like this |
| Z_God | kinda yeah |
| *** schreiberstein has quit IRC |
| samelian | sometimes things are not directly translatable |
| samelian | otherwise sounds unnatural |
| Z_God | yep true |
| samelian | you are native english speaker? |
| Z_God | он виден seems to be it |
| Z_God | no, dutch |
| samelian | aha |
| samelian | much harder :) |
| Z_God | the language? |
| samelian | yes |
| Z_God | it's easy :)) |
| samelian | at least, for me |
| samelian | is like a german mixed with english, right? |
| Z_God | kinda yes |
| Z_God | we do not have cases anymore |
| Z_God | like english |
| samelian | english have very much forms for past |
| Z_God | what's your first language? |
| samelian | i'm russian, from parents |
| Z_God | english has a special tenses system |
| samelian | but I live in Romania |
| Z_God | dutch tenses are more like the rest of europe |
| samelian | so Romanian is my primary language |
| Z_God | you even speak it with your parents? |
| samelian | yes |
| * Strangelv attempts to keep up and is also confused by the enumerated devices |
| samelian | we talk an obsolite form of russian |
| Z_God | which one? |
| samelian | is kind of russian dialect |
| Z_God | where are your parents from? |
| Strangelv | The 'be' verbs: am are is was were be being been |
| samelian | they was born in Romania, our ancients come from Russia, few hundred years ago |
| Z_God | Strangelv: yeah, you should guess the russian ones ;) |
| Strangelv | Do we have enough words for 'be' or should we crate a few more? |
| Strangelv | "Russian has even more? |
| Z_God | Strangelv: you can even type the ones for the present tense :) |
| samelian | now I try to remember if in russian exists "i am" :) |
| samelian | seems that doesn't exists in this form |
| Z_God | lol |
| Z_God | yep |
| Z_God | russian has no verb then |
| samelian | for example "i'm driver" can be translated from russian as "I driver" |
| Z_God | Strangelv: the amount of forms for to be in english is not that large |
| * Strangelv takes that to mean 'we need to create a few more' |
| Z_God | most languages also have separate forms in all tenses for all persons (1st, 2nd and 3rd) and also both singular & plural |
| samelian | "Я водитель" |
| Z_God | so that's six forms per tense |
| Z_God | normally you have about 8 tenses |
| Z_God | at least latin has and most other european languages |
| Z_God | which gives 6*8 forms |
| Z_God | add coniuntive *2 |
| Z_God | :) |
| samelian | in Romanian doesn't exists form for "far past" or "near past" |
| Z_God | it's also future |
| Z_God | I'm mistaken btw |
| Z_God | you only have 6 tenses if you have a separate coniunctive |
| Z_God | present, past, future |
| Z_God | and the perfective forms of those |
| Z_God | samelian: you know which dialect of Russian your family speaks? |
| samelian | russians told me that my accent seems Siberian |
| * Strangelv opens up a new page in his personal wiki for the non-terrestrial language and starts trying to figuer out tenses based on what he's thinking of from this conversation |
| samelian | but our native language is tainted by romanian and turkish languages |
| samelian | turkish because ocupation, a century ago |
| Z_God | Strangelv: if you really want to come up with a special language |
| * Strangelv has been told that teh family German dialect that didn't make it to him had aspects of a polish accent |
| Z_God | it's really hard if you only know languages from a single group |
| Z_God | and not have it strongly reflect that group |
| Strangelv | I know. If I had time, Basque and some New Ginnean languages would be idal |
| Z_God | we're all still talking about european languages here |
| * Strangelv nods |
| Z_God | I never bothered to look further either :) |
| Z_God | but I know some languages put all properties of the sentence inside the verb |
| Z_God | even the plurality of the object |
| Strangelv | Indo-european. We barbarians who charged in and wiped out the descendants of the Cro-Magnons and Neanderthals, or at least their languages -- all but one small pocket |
| samelian | haha |
| Strangelv | On these nightmare beasts we called Ekwoons or similar |
| Z_God | I wonder if they had a language |
| Z_God | it's likely they did not really have a language |
| Strangelv | Who didn't? |
| Z_God | neanderthals at least |
| Z_God | they could not easily produce languages with their mouths like us |
| Z_God | at least bone research showed their tongue was probably a bit higher |
| Strangelv | Their behavior was too complex to have not had language. Their culture was itself wiped out -- and more effectively. Just traces of their DNA, which means that not many of them left descendants. Small enough that for awhile the dominant viewpoint was that they were utterly annihilated |
| Z_God | so they were probably not capable of expressing a lot of nuances with their voices |
| Strangelv | "It's possibel they might have had a different set of natural phonemes |
| Z_God | ok |
| Strangelv | But it seems clear that they were a race, not a separate species |
| Z_God | yes, I heard they mixed indeed |
| samelian | maybe they not liked chatting :) |
| Strangelv | We could probabyl get close enough to have shared a language |
| Z_God | if you could make babies together ;) |
| Strangelv | I for one would be all for reconstructing their genome and having a few -- as long as it's clear that they're human and have all the rights any human would have |
| Z_God | while I'm not against creating life |
| Z_God | I'm not sure about creating consious life |
| Strangelv | I am -- but with strict but simple and straightforward ethical considerations. |
| samelian | maybe we will be conquered by our too intelligent computers :) |
| Strangelv | Creating a neanderthal in the lab is no different from creating a caucasian, negroid, or mongoloid in the lab. It's a human being. Follow the existing rules for this. |
| Z_God | apart from the fact that you have more material for creating those human being |
| Z_God | beings* |
| Z_God | and it's done regularly outside of the lab as well |
| Strangelv | I also happen to agree with Jared DIamond that chimps, bonobos, and possibly gorrilas and maybe even orangutans belong in teh same genus we're in |
| Strangelv | We're too closely related |
| Strangelv | Which then comes to the not often seriously undertaken efford to integrate them into our society |
| Z_God | we can't even integrate all individuals of our species in our society |
| Strangelv | Adult male chimps have difficulty controlling themselves. Might need some environmental adaptation to make it less difficult |
| Z_God | what about communication? |
| Strangelv | A lobotomy is the exact opposite of what's needed -- the frontal cortex is needed to help with self control and that needs to be execrised, stimulated, and maybe even supplemented somehow. We need tihs for some people of our own species |
| Strangelv | Sign language and more serious efforts at improving their ability to understand spoken human languages. Reading and writing should be a priority to learn how to teach them |
| Strangelv | If they have a placre in our society they're less likely to find themselves hunted or used as disposable lab specimins |
| Z_God | did nobody ever adopt a chimp or a bonobo in their family? |
| Strangelv | There have been a few attempts, some that seemed to take things seriously, but the ones I'm aware of were decades ago before we knew what we know now |
| Z_God | ok |
| Strangelv | the late Nim Chomsky was basicalyl thrown away by one of the researchers despite the fact that he became fluent with sign language and longed to be living in a' house with a fridge and clothing. |
| Z_God | I'll look him up |
| Strangelv | Nim Chimpsky |
| Strangelv | I stand corrected |
| Z_God | google did that for me as well ;) |
| Strangelv | Part ofb the problem is that they're trying to be methodical. I wonder just how damaged a human's upbringing would be if it was handled in the same way |
| Strangelv | Ther's also the loose structure of American Sign Language that makes it a poor choice if they're not going to be happy with what is spoken using it. |
| Z_God | I just read about it |
| Z_God | and also Washoe |
| Z_God | but what is someone takes are of a dolphin? |
| Z_God | if* |
| Z_God | I understand that dolphins are close to humans in brain capacity |
| Strangelv | Cetecians and probably elephants are good practice for xenolinguistics |
| Strangelv | Like elephants, they exceed ours |
| Z_God | they just are not really flexible like us |
| Strangelv | It's acutally very likely that we are not teh most intelligent species on this planet |
| Z_God | depends on the definition I guess though |
| Strangelv | The problem is that dolphin and human languages are rather alien |
| Z_God | I mean the definition of intelligence |
| Strangelv | We have more toys than the dolphins, -- and this is a difference whose importance can't be understated: we live a lot longer than theydo |
| Z_God | hmm yep of course |
| Strangelv | Put one in a tank, teach it a trick, put another in. Let them converse. The second one knows the trick. How does this fail to be evidence of language? |
| Z_God | could be just imitation |
| Z_God | depends on the trick |
| Strangelv | What if the second one never saw the trick performed? I must admit I don't know enough to confirm this |
| Z_God | then it would be proof I guess |
| Z_God | maybe one of the wildboyz would like to raise a monkey as their child |
| Strangelv | To the anthropocentrists, there is no proof. ever. I suspect with the right setup you could have them declare that several people with average language skills are'nt really intelligent life either. Just need to keep them fromt realizing the subject is human |
| Z_God | you know the program? |
| Strangelv | I have'nt checked up on dolphin research for awhile and most of what I remember was murky |
| Z_God | I don't know what their definition of a language is |
| Strangelv | Combination of other distractions and brain fog. Also not seeing non-dumbed-down evidence |
| Z_God | I mean the show wildboyz |
| Z_God | there is one scene in which they hang out in their hotel room |
| Strangelv | What is wildboyz+ |
| Z_God | together with a monkey |
| Z_God | and this monkey is just messing around, but it really seems like he enjoys it |
| Z_God | it's a show where two guys do all kinds of crazy interactions with animals |
| Z_God | I can only find a crap quality version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5wc2nQ6zHnw |
| Z_God | not sure if it's really responsible to allow a monkey to drink your beer though, but they are not afraid to spend time with a monkey it seems |

| Strangelv | I'm not sure how far we can get with a small monkey. That said, I've heard both cats and dogs do their best to speak. Usually consisting of no concept of consonants and then wondering why I didn't understand what they just said |
| Strangelv | We probably need an alternate set of phonemes for our closest relatives and learn to understand them when they speak the same language we do with that different set |
| Strangelv | They have almost the same wiring we do, so it's a far easier problem than ceteceans and elephants. Elephants may be easier than cetecians -- it's only been 20 yours or less since we even found out that they have a language |
| Z_God | it'll be hard though I guess |
| Z_God | especially for cats |
| *** damiano_ has joined #trinity-desktop |
| damiano_ | heya fellas.. |
| Z_God | to produce smth |
| *** damiano_ is now known as Aquarius_ |
| Aquarius_ | that latest kernel thing.... ruined everything |
| Aquarius_ | i couldn't logon to x anymore |
| Strangelv | Cats and dogs could probably stand ho have some genetic tinkering -- but keep in mind the ethical rules that they might get up into if they reach human levels of functionality -- and some of them will if they get sufficient language skills to successfully communicate wverbally with us |
| Strangelv | Which kernel? |
| Aquarius_ | maybe because of other things as well, i dunno... |
| Aquarius_ | latest for Squeeze |
| Aquarius_ | ....39 |
| Strangelv | 2.6.39? |
| Aquarius_ | yep |
| Z_God | Strangelv: this is already an issue |
| Strangelv | Which isn't the latest |
| Aquarius_ | that ruined everything... specifically something about xorg |
| Strangelv | do newer kernels help or do things stay broken? |
| Z_God | in many countries, people that are considered mentally challenged also lack rights |
| Aquarius_ | they tend to mess up. |
| Aquarius_ | from my own humble experience.. |
| Z_God | Aquarius_: what did you do? |
| Aquarius_ | as i said, just updated kernel as that Pikki guy said. |
| Z_God | why? |
| Aquarius_ | dunno... just to make it new. Thought i'd get rid of that hal prob. |
| Aquarius_ | by the way, it's still there, i've reinstalled everything. |
| Z_God | that's not related to your kernel |
| Z_God | better reinstall hal |
| Z_God | if the new kernel doesn't work, why not go back to the old one? |
| Aquarius_ | did it many times before. |
| Aquarius_ | listen, i've reinstalled everything already, and no new kernel around. |
| Aquarius_ | so it doesn' matter anymore |
| Z_God | ok |
| Z_God | better stay with what works |
| Aquarius_ | what im saying is that the problem still there.. i mean with "Safe removal" of USB... |
| Aquarius_ | i mean... i can EJECT it, and it's fine. Works just like Safe removal |
| Z_God | but? |
| Aquarius_ | but if i click on the latter it brings some weird error |
| Aquarius_ | though.. other than the one i had while on Trinity |
| Aquarius_ | now i'm on gnome |
| Aquarius_ | let me show you |
| Z_God | this stuff was always a bit buggy |
| Aquarius_ | ah |
| Aquarius_ | now that's good to know |
| Aquarius_ | you see.. i don't really care how to do it... whether to Eject or Safely remove.. i just don't wanna see no errors... that intimidates me.. |
| Aquarius_ | so if you're saying it's screwed up as it is... then it's fine with me |
| Z_God | as long as it's umouted, it's fine |
| Z_God | yes |
| Z_God | the systems are kinda screwed up |
| Aquarius_ | tell me... could it possible happen because i installed Wine 1.3 from Mepis repository? |
| Z_God | it was bolted on for a "nice" user experience |
| Z_God | no |
| Aquarius_ | ok. Good to know. |
| Z_God | unlikely at least |
| Aquarius_ | one more thing... let me show you something.. it wouldn't matter if i had no probs here... but i just don't wanna do anything silly to mess up again... let me show you something.. |
| Z_God | ok, but it'll have to be quick |
| Z_God | because I have to get up in 7 hours |
| Z_God | ;) |
| Aquarius_ | sure.. just a sec |
| Aquarius_ | http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=62200 |
| Aquarius_ | here... there's one guy, he said this: |
| Aquarius_ | First things first, kgarbutt, you don't need to install all these so-called dependencies. You only need to issue this command: |
| Aquarius_ | CODE: SELECT ALL |
| Aquarius_ | # apt-get build-dep wine |
| Z_God | it does the same |
| Aquarius_ | and i did it not knowing what i was doing.. nothing happened, this thing just installed a bunch of files.... |
| Z_God | it installs the dependencies |
| Aquarius_ | it doesn't hurt? |
| Z_God | you need to build it |
| Z_God | build-dep -> build dependencies |
| Aquarius_ | i see.. |
| Aquarius_ | well.. the thing is, i didn't use that.. i just added Mepis repository and installed Wine 1.3 from there. It works. |
| Aquarius_ | but before i did it i used the command above.. |
| Aquarius_ | so all i wanna know, was that ok? |
| Strangelv | "Advantages tto using the Mepis repository? |
| Z_God | more packages should never hurt ;) |
| * Strangelv wonders if that's where he should be gethting it from instead of where he is. |
| Aquarius_ | ok :) |
| Aquarius_ | that's all i wanted to know :) |
| Aquarius_ | thanks. |
| Z_God | Strangelv: debian apparently doesn't have wine 1.3 at all |
| Aquarius_ | it has 1.0 |
| Aquarius_ | strangely ENOUGH. |
| Strangelv | Okay, Debian. I forgot that Mepis changed back to Debian |
| Strangelv | Yike! |
| Strangelv | Wait, is this stable, wheezy, or Sid? |
| Aquarius_ | stable |
| Strangelv | Okay, I'm not surprised |
| Strangelv | This is why I fgound stable to be unusable for my needs |
| Aquarius_ | because of wine? |
| Strangelv | no, because of very old packages that were missing features that I needed |
| Aquarius_ | understandable. |
| Strangelv | ...or the complete absense of what I was needing |
| Strangelv | because it was more recent than the freeze on stable |
| Z_God | debian stable is about stability |
| Z_God | not really about features |
| Aquarius_ | for me it's quite enough. You just have to fiddle around and find ways to get the same stuff as in Wheezy or Ubuntu... perhaps it's not all anyway. But for me it's just about enough. |
| Strangelv | If I were going to run a serious server Debian Stabel would be on my short list of distros to consider |
| Z_God | that's what I use on servers yep |
| Z_God | otherwise it'd be ubuntu lts I guess |
| Aquarius_ | there's one thing.... you have TO KNOW what you're doing.. otherwise you'll know the power of re-installation. |
| Strangelv | Not on a desktop. Testing if I could find the packages I needed on testing |
| Z_God | I already use ubuntu lts on my desktops |
| Strangelv | In 2003-2004 I couldn't. everytnhing I needed was compiled against Sid |
| Strangelv | I'm almost running LTS, albeit not by intent |
| Z_God | I was using suse then :) |
| Aquarius_ | why would someone use Sid or testing?.. Tell me this.. |
| Strangelv | NEwer packages and almost as stable as anything else available at the time. |
| Aquarius_ | i mean common.. do i really need errors and issues every now and then or expecting some shit to happen (though stable ain't much brighter sometimes) |
| Strangelv | ...but when Sarge finally got released unstable became genuinely unstable |
| Z_God | if you know how to fix things |
| Z_God | that's np |
| Aquarius_ | ah.. |
| Strangelv | I must admit with unstabe/l I learned how to use gtk -i --force-all |
| Z_God | I don't feel like though, so I don't ;) |
| Strangelv | largely because of the XFree86 in name only they were working |
| Strangelv | I've been far happier with Kubuntu -- at least until KDE 4 came out |
| Aquarius_ | KDE4 is crap... world wide proclaimed crap. |
| Z_God | I always used kubuntu with kde3 |
| Strangelv | ...and the Automake problem and the time needed to resolve it broke my intention of keeping this machine up to date |
| Strangelv | I tried using it for less than 48 hours. I've ranted enough in here about just how much I hated the experience |
| Z_God | I used it for 1-2 months |
| Strangelv | There's a reason I'm in here, after all... |
| Z_God | but I liked kde3 more |
| Z_God | I'm a kde addict though |
| Z_God | I can't use anything else |
| Strangelv | Without TDE or KDE 3 I would not have a clear path. KDE 4 fails big time. For me anyway. YMMV |
| Z_God | yes, I have the same, although I understand KDE 4.7 is ok |
| Z_God | I really enjoyed KDE 1.0 though |
| Z_God | and there was similar disappointment with 2.0 |
| Strangelv | I can't trust myself hto remain levelheaded around it. At a minimum I'd run the risk of making Gaesslin look objective by comparison |
| Z_God | about performance |
| Z_God | but that's all gone as well now |
| Z_God | so maybe it's indeed a matter of tiem |
| Z_God | time* |

| Piki | has anybody successfully configured kmail for a gpg signing key? my kmail displays the key when i go to select it, but it has a question mark next to it, and the OK button is greyed out. gpg-agent is running and set to use pinentry-qt and i have 'use-agent' set in gpg.conf. kgpg is also running, i used kgpg to generage my key |
| MutantTurkey | o/ |
| Aquarius_ | Piki, i see that thing keeps you awake |
| Piki | Aquarius_: no, just a nice conversation with my g/f :-) i don't usually go to bed until a bit later |
| Aquarius_ | i see. |
| Aquarius_ | by the way... |
| Aquarius_ | i installed that new kernel of yours... |
| Aquarius_ | now i'm on freshly installed Debian if you know what i mean. |
| *** samelian has quit IRC |
| MutantTurkey | darrell is a boss |
| MutantTurkey | he already did a website audit! |
| Piki | i already did a tax audit, i'm paying too much! lol |
| Aquarius_ | Piki, USB prob persists by the way. |
| MutantTurkey | :P |
| Aquarius_ | i have to EJECT it, not to Remove Safely, which doesn't really work. |
| Aquarius_ | works the same, but... not meant to be so. |
| Piki | Eject? |
| Aquarius_ | yep. Eject. |
| Aquarius_ | well.. i'm on Gnome |
| Aquarius_ | as i said.. after your new kernel i had to reinstall everything. After that i couldn't logon to X, there was some prob with xorg and i couldn't solve it. |
| Piki | if you just reinstalled individual packages instead of reformatting and reinstalling debian, that might cause a few problems, i think you said you had sid and a few other repos included in sources.list? |
| Aquarius_ | yeah... that's true. |
| Aquarius_ | but i think i cleaned it up with that website of yours.. |
| Aquarius_ | but that didn't matter.. |
| Piki | the website isn't mine, i just found it in google and used it for my sources.list :-) |
| Piki | and removing the repos doesn't remove the packages |
| Aquarius_ | well.. i mean you gave it to me.. |
| Aquarius_ | but it's a good one though. |
| Piki | your best bet is using either aptitude (command line) or synaptic (graphical) to search for and remove packages from the repos you removed |
| Piki | and replace them with the packages in the repos that you're using now |
| Piki | either that, or backup your data, reinstall debian, and reinstall the packages you need |
| Aquarius_ | thanks man. I'll just stick with 2.6.32. It serves me well. |
| Piki | whichever you'd find easier |
| Aquarius_ | i'd install it only if that'd fix the usb prob :) |
| Piki | it might fix it, no garantee though |
| Aquarius_ | well yeah, that's the thing.. issue is not worth a risk in my case. |
| Piki | i never use the Safely Remove option, i normally handle that in a terminal, i normally keep one open all the time ;-) |
| Aquarius_ | you mean you purge stuff? |
| Piki | actually, i think an update from debian backports that was added today or yesterday broke my hal, but i only need it for my battery, which needs replacing anyway, so i don't really care right now |
| Piki | Aquarius_: i was referring to my flash drives |
| Aquarius_ | ah.... |
| Aquarius_ | dammit |
| Piki | but for packages, if you know you'll never use them again, purging is good |
| Aquarius_ | well i can do it out of gnome now, but only one thing, "Safely Remove" doesn't work. First it gets delayed and then brings an error message. But Eject works always, and the same way. |
| Piki | or if you're downgrading a packages to one that you know won't break your system, but you're afraid the config files from the newer version might break the older version |
| *** gcsimon has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Piki | i always thought gnome used hal |
| Piki | unless they changed it recently |
| Piki | i haven't used gnome in awhile, it's ok, but i felt too constained with the configuration options available |
| MutantTurkey | nobody uses hal anymore |
| Piki | kde4 |
| Piki | unless they changed, but i know earlier this year they used it |
| Piki | personally i never really liked hal, i know the head dev for Ark said he made a replacement for it and that he got it working (should have mentioned it during the meeting), but he had to include hal in the iso from january because he was trouble hacking kde4 to use his system |
| Piki | anyways, back on subject... any kmail users at all? perhaps willing to at least test to see if it's just my system that's causing the gpg problem? |
| Piki | :-P |
| MutantTurkey | did anyone read the TDE HCI model pad? |
| Piki | no, what's that? |
| MutantTurkey | Tim has been documenting his ideas regarding computer/user interaction |
| MutantTurkey | http://trinity.etherpad.trinitydesktop.org/28 |
| Piki | apparently i need an account to view one... might as well request one, since i'll eventually need it |
| gcsimon | Piki: trouble with kmail and gpg? |
| Piki | gcsimon: yes, it detects my gpg key, but won't let me select it |
| gcsimon | Piki: i use gpg and kmail (within of kontact), to sign end encrypt emails, no troubles here. |
| Piki | gcsimon: hmm... any special setup needed? e.g. anything other than gpg-agent running as a daemon? |
| gcsimon | Piki: mostly out-of-the-box setup (recent TDE). didn't do anything special, except generating the keys and importing them into gpg, as well as givinge them "full trust" (using kgpg) |
| Piki | i tried generating the keys using 'gpg --keygen', then when that didn't work, generating them in kgpg |
| Piki | unless they need importing into gpg when using gpg directly to generate them, that shouldn't be the problem |
| Piki | and they already have full trust |
| *** joeytwiddle has quit IRC |
| gcsimon | Piki: apperently i have no gpg-daemon running. i generated the keys using gpg on the console, i don't remember how i imported them (kgpg or console) but i used kgpg to give them "full trust" |
| gcsimon | Piki: but technically all ways should be identical |
| Aquarius_ | listen.. what is safe upgrade and non-safe upgrade? |
| Aquarius_ | "which does not remove old packages or install new ones..." |
| Piki | gcsimon: everything i read says i should have "gpg-agent --daemon" running |
| gcsimon | Piki: why did generating the keys using gpg not work? |
| Aquarius_ | in other words... which is better for me? |
| gcsimon | Aquarius_: no idea, but would be good to know - ubuntu system? |
| Aquarius_ | Debian. |
| Aquarius_ | i just don't get it.. how can it be upgraded if no packages removed or installed? |
| Piki | gcsimon: dunno, kmail just won't accept my keys. it displays a question mark, and the OK button is grayed out |
| gcsimon | Aquarius_: strange indeed |
| Aquarius_ | well, it's Debian's updates. Always been like this. |
| Aquarius_ | and i could never understand it :) |
| gcsimon | Piki: could it be, that you used a key wich is incompatible with the selected encoding? S/MIME, inline, etc? |
| Piki | Aquarius_: are you talking system updates? if you're doing "apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade" on the command line or clicking Refresh in synaptic the the upgrade button, it should mark all upgrade |
| Piki | if not, there's nothing to upgrade |
| Aquarius_ | no no... it's not that. |
| Aquarius_ | i've got updates notifications. |
| Aquarius_ | when i updated the repository list. |
| Piki | gcsimon: how would i know it's incompatible? |
| Aquarius_ | and it suggests that i may use safe-upgrade (with no files installed/removed) or.. non-safe i guess. |
| Aquarius_ | let me just show you.. |
| gcsimon | Piki: no idea, just a possibility. o don't know if keys can be incompatible with specific endcodings. |
| Aquarius_ | http://89.28.122.14:8080/Screenshot.png |
| Piki | gcsimon: are you talking about the different keys it shows when i run "gpg --gen-key"? |
| gcsimon | Piki: my crypto backends show "GpgME" which includes "OpenPGP (gpg)" and "S/MIME (gpgsm)" |
| Aquarius_ | check the screen please. |

| Aquarius_ | hm |
| Aquarius_ | ok |
| Aquarius_ | good point |
| Piki | hmm, choosing the RSA Sign Only didn't help |
| gcsimon | Aquarius_: this prevents the package manager, to choose updates, that would affect more than the to-be-upgraded package alone |
| *** joeytwiddle has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Aquarius_ | so what do i do? |
| gcsimon | Aquarius_: but i'm new to apt... could be completly wrong |
| gcsimon | Aquarius_: why not just let him upgrade everything? |
| Piki | i normally use either apt-get or synaptic, neither display that message |
| Piki | but i'd interpret the message the same as gcsimon, that it'll only upgrade already installed packages without installing or removing anything |
| Aquarius_ | gcsimon, why not let him? I let him either way! No matter what i push... what do i press, tell me? |
| Aquarius_ | yes or no? |
| Piki | both apt-get and synaptic will tell you all the upgrades, new packages, and removals, and ask you to confirm before actually doing it |
| Aquarius_ | ok |
| Aquarius_ | so i push yes? or no? :) |
| gcsimon | Aquarius_: when i choose to update, he displays a list, which shows what he is going to do. sometimes he install new packages when i just requested updates. i think is safe to say, "upgrade all" |
| Aquarius_ | ok |
| gcsimon | Aquarius_: push "no" ;-) |
| Aquarius_ | ok |
| gcsimon | Aquarius_: does your package manager display a "summary" of changes? |
| Aquarius_ | probably. I'll take a look. Right now installing. |
| Aquarius_ | http://89.28.122.14:8080/Screenshot-1.png |
| Aquarius_ | i couldn't copy all the stuff. Doesn't work for that window. |
| gcsimon | Piki: which distribution are you using? i remember that suse 11.1 had troubles with 4096 bit keys, becaus ethe gpg versionw as to old. |
| Piki | don't be pasting a lot of lines directly to the channel, that's what pastebin is for :-) |
| Aquarius_ | i know |
| Aquarius_ | that's not what i meant |
| Piki | gcsimon: Debian Squeeze with the backports repo enabled |
| Aquarius_ | i mean i couldn't COPY it from the window, not right down here |
| Piki | dunno whether my gpg comes from official or backports |
| *** chaky has quit IRC |
| Piki | gcsimon: do you know what gpg version is needed? (or at least what version opensuse is using, so i know to make sure i'm newer than that) |
| gcsimon | i have "gpg (GnuPG) 1.4.10", that seems to work fine |
| Piki | hmm, so do i |
| gcsimon | Piki: don't know which version suse 11.1 used. i could find out though... i still have an opensuse 11.1 VM |
| Piki | gcsimon: i'm using gpg 1.4.10, if that version works for you, that probably isn't the problem |
| Piki | unless there was a packaging issue with the debian package |
| *** MutantTurkey has quit IRC |
| *** chaky has joined #trinity-desktop |
| gcsimon | other question: before kubuntu/TDE i used opensuse 11.4. when i pressed CTRL+LEFT-ARROW in "konsole", it would move the cursor until the next white-space character. now on TDE it doesn't work anymore. instead it displays ";5C" or ";5D". |
| gcsimon | i understand that this is like the keycode for the keys i pressed, but how do i setup konsole (or X-org?) to interpret these keycodes correctly? |
| Piki | gcsimon: didn't know about that, i just tried it on my konsole, seems to work for me |
| Piki | i'm on TDE 3.5.13 on debian squeeze, unless it's to do with the OS selected in the kpersonalizer wizard when you first launch TDE, it should work |
| gcsimon | seems it has to do something with the selected keyboard in konsole. only XTerm (XFree 4.xxxx) show the keycodes, all other just don't show anything (but don't work either) |
| gcsimon | i didn't use kpersonalizer, i transfered my old kde3 settings to trinity (just renamed the folder) |
| Piki | did you run kpersonalizer in kde3? if so, do you remember which OS you selected at the start? |
| Piki | i'm not familiar with changing the key bindings, i just choose the settings in the kcontrol keyboard settings that work best for me, and kpersonalizer seems to choose the correct one when i choose the OS |
| gcsimon | i don't think that i ever ran kpersonalizer, but if i did i cannot remeber anymore (long long ago). |
| *** drvodka has quit IRC |
| Piki | some distros disable it by default |
| gcsimon | it's not ap problem with the keyboard layout. here in konversation (my ICQ client), CTRL+LEFT and CTRL+RIGHT work as expected |
| gcsimon | ICQ=IRC |
| gcsimon | also in kate, or other TDE apps, only in konsole it doesn't work |
| Piki | might just be a problem in your konsole |
| Piki | mitght be worth removing the config files for konsole to see if that helps |
| gcsimon | yeah, think so too. i will check what these "keyboard" option does in konsole. maybe it's just a small change to some layout file |
| Piki | gcsimon: and i hope you're using a F\OSS ICQ client ;-) |
| gcsimon | kopete actually, and konversation for IRC |
| gcsimon | i forced ubuntu before setup to "OSS only" |
| gcsimon | but it is very hard to find stuff like a free flash-player.... ;-( |
| Piki | all i need is 100% working flash and java replacements to go completely F\OSS |
| gcsimon | like me |
| Piki | mplayer seems to play youtube videos that i've downloaded, problem is setting it up as my flash plugin |
| Piki | if i can do that, then i'm left with searching for a java replacement |
| gcsimon | i'm trying gnash. it loads correctly and looks like the original flash-plugin from adobe, but it has some codec-troubles on youtube |
| gcsimon | but i think this can be resolved |
| Piki | once that's done, all i need is for khtml to be replaced so i can go full Qt and ditch gtk (no real problem with gtk, i just want one or the otherm, not both, and since tde uses qt, that'd be where i'd go) |
| gcsimon | ah, yes. khtml.... i love konqueror. but yome sites just won't work anymore with the old khtml |
| Piki | i tried gnash, seems to identify correctly, but can never load any videos |
| gcsimon | khtml_google_chrome :P |
| * Piki wanders if webkit-qt can be backported for use with tqt |
| Piki | if i knew how to program in qt, i could probably attempt it |
| gcsimon | same, and i would need more time. programming with Qt itself seems fairly simple. but i'm in time preassure with my studies (diploma thesis) |
| Aquarius_ | does anybody know why skype just closes at startup?.. |
| Aquarius_ | i know only one thing... when PulseAudio is there, or particular audio settings made it doesn't happen. However, if i instantly make a call it fixes it till the very next startup. |
| *** samelian has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Aquarius_ | i mean, it never happens while in a call. |
| Piki | never used skype, proprietary protocol, i try to avoid proprietary as much as possible |
| Aquarius_ | well i need it. That's the thing. That's what most people say, but it doesn't help me. |
| Aquarius_ | there's one more nasty thing...... when the call is ended from the other side skype closes too. |
| Aquarius_ | damn.. |
| gcsimon | Aquarius_: skype for linux is completly broken. my brother uses it. he has this problem sometimes too. i usually just delete all skype-settings and start from scratch. not a good solution, but works. |
| Aquarius_ | you mean his skype shuts off too?.. |
| Piki | Aquarius_: i think that sources.list generator website has a skype option, did you try that? |
| gcsimon | yeah. his setup uses pulseaudio too. and sometimes (i don know, ehy or when), it won't load. |
| Aquarius_ | hm. |
| Aquarius_ | never happened to me. |
| Aquarius_ | well, with Pulse it NEVER crashes. I mean.. i've tried it.. PA was shit, BUT... skype never closed up all of a sudden. |
| Aquarius_ | definitely audio issues. |
| gcsimon | btw. skype is working on a solution which make sit possible to use regular VoIP software (or hardware IP-phones) with skype. like a skype-VoIP-bridge |
| gcsimon | since asterisk-skype has been discontinued |
| gcsimon | onces that happens, skype-support for linux will improve *much* |
| Piki | they should just open up their code and have REAL coders fix it |
| gcsimon | :D |
| gcsimon | i even can't understand why peope use skype insted of regular VoIP.... i mean just because of video-support? |
| gcsimon | there are free VoIP-servers too. and VoIP is standardised |
| Piki | if people wnat that so bad, they can demand it from regular voip, or use instant messaging |
| Piki | i know kopete support video chat |
| gcsimon | you can run even your own VoIP-server (inclusing gateway to other medias). asterisk (FREE OSS) can do that for you. |
| gcsimon | uh. never got kopete video-chat working. and it seems incompatible with the regular ICQ video support |
| Piki | it recognized my webcam awhile back, never did video chat though |
| Piki | gcsimon: perhaps you can add a bug tracker request to get video chat in icq working in kopete? |
| Piki | dunno how long it will take, would probably be low priority until we get all the main issues sorted, but at least it would draw attention to the video chat issue |
| gcsimon | i have no webcam anymore. and to be honest, i wouldn't use it. i mean, if it would already work, and i just had to click "enable video-chat", maybe i would consider using it (and buy a new webcam for it). but i really don't want to burden the TDE dev's. i think there are bigger problems with TDE than video-chat for kopete ;-P |
| Aquarius_ | is there any CD/DVD burner that does verification after burning? |
| Aquarius_ | i have only Brasero here |
| Piki | k3b |
| gcsimon | yes, k3b |
| Aquarius_ | thanks |
| Piki | anybody who uses kde/tde will almost certainly recommend k3b |
| gcsimon | indeed, it's very good |
| Piki | it's the best |
| gcsimon | has completly replaced "nero" since i made the switch to linux |
| Aquarius_ | nice to know. |
| Piki | even some non-kde users use k3b, even if they don't use anything else from kde |
| *** KingSphinx has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Piki | hmm, apparently kopete doesn't recognize my webcam anymore, but it is detected by the v4l webcam apps i have installed |
| Piki | not that i really care, i don't use kopete for video messaging, just seems odd |
| *** chaky has quit IRC |
| Piki | apparently kopete has an issue with udev setting up a v4l link in /dev/v4l, got it fixed :-) |
| Piki | apparently have to remove the udev rule that creates the link, remove the link it creates, then restart udev and kopete |
| *** KingSphinx has quit IRC |
| gcsimon | isn't v4l outdated? i remember using something called v4l2.... |
| Piki | dunno |
| Piki | i never actually used v4l except for my webcam, and i haven't used my webcam since sometime in the first half of this year. i didn't even set it up, i just installed a program called cheese |
| Piki | for taking some pics |
| *** chaky has joined #trinity-desktop |
| gcsimon | what do you think, will TDE run well on an 800mhz cpu? i know this question cannot be answered perfectly, just trying to get some opinions before i try and find out |
| gcsimon | the machine will have to run amarok, kopete, kontact, k3b, vlc... etc. the full package of everything TDE has to offer (memory won't be a problem, 4GB DDR2-800 installed) |
| Piki | it should work if you have enough ram |
| gcsimon | good |
| Piki | gcsimon: should work, if you don't have everything running at once :-) |
| Piki | the ram could handle all that at once, not sure about the cpu |
| Piki | you'd probably be able to get kopete, music or video, kontact, and web browser going, perhaps even an office app |
| gcsimon | yeah :D, the cpu is a low-power via-c7 x86 clone. no 64bit extensions. the system will boot via nfs-root |
| Piki | but you'd probably not be able to have more than one multimedia app at a time, but i'm sure it's doable, especially since a 765mhz cpu with 128MB RAM could run WinXP (albeit slow |
| Piki | ) |
| gcsimon | want to deploy 3-4 of them. currently i use 3 of them, but only as X-terminal to a powerful server, which runs TDE in turn. performance is poor, because of the network lantency |
| Piki | exit |
| Piki | oops |
| Piki | wrong window |
| gcsimon | yeah, thats what i used as refernence. windows xp started out on 600mhz computers, with much less memory |
| gcsimon | haha. happes to me too, all the time in ICQ. ^ |

| *** thistle_ has quit IRC |
| rzs19 | you can share your desktop with Krfb, or use xvnc |
| duindain | im using x11vnc but i dont know what session to start |
| duindain | for trinity |
| duindain | does startkde work? |
| *** thistle_ has joined #trinity-desktop |
| rzs19 | you could try: |
| rzs19 | echo "startkde" > ~/.vnc/xstartup |
| rzs19 | maybe xrdp(http://www.xrdp.org/) is alsor for you, there you could have sesman? |
| duindain | that command wiped my xstartup file and replaced it with nothing ;( |
| duindain | no content |
| rzs19 | blah@trinity:~$ echo "startkde" > ~/.vnc/xstartup |
| rzs19 | blah@trinity:~$ cat ~/.vnc/xstartupstartkde |
| duindain | sorry i was slightly wrong it has startkde in the file |
| duindain | nothing else |
| duindain | 2nd command No such file or directory |
| rzs19 | do you have a .vnc dir in your home directory? |
| duindain | well the first command wouldnt have worked if i didnt |
| duindain | and my mentioning it deleting my original xstartup file wouldnt make much sense either |
| duindain | think i found the problem |
| duindain | at least one of them |
| duindain | startkde isnt installed |
| rzs19 | oh you have a xstartup file? := |
| rzs19 | okay becouse here i have a startkde file |

| duindain | it was customised for about 4-5 different sessions too ;( |

| duindain | ok its working now |
| duindain | changing the xstartup file to contain /opt/trinity/bin/startkde |
| duindain | works fine |

| MutantTurkey | I want to keep him on board |
| MutantTurkey | he is our key to the gates of KDE users hearts. |
| jumpship | I hope I don't sound like I'm agianst him |
| jumpship | My intention was to encourage, not to attack |
| *** MutantTurkey has quit IRC |
| rzs19 | hmm, i'am confused... no clue what you are all talkin about |
| jumpship | I guess Trinity has a reputation in the KDE4 community as a "den of hate" |
| *** vhumpa has joined #trinity-desktop |
| jumpship | http://trinity-devel.pearsoncomputing.net/?0::3670 |
| jumpship | I was just confused by that, because I didn't get that impression, many people using Trinity are going to be people unhappy with KDE4, but I didn't feel there was real hate |
| Strangelv | Depends on how recently I've had someone like Graesslin militantly try to cram something down my throat |
| jumpship | Even during that episode, I seen a lot of defence of Trinity, I'm trying to remember if there was any attacking, I guess I coulda just not noticed, it wouldn't have affected me as much as a KDE4 dev, so maybe thats it |
| rzs19 | well... martin says that just kicker und kdesktop are missing, i think other application have changed, so there is much more difference between kde4 and tde. not "we are more stable" |
| rzs19 | the ui has changed. |
| rzs19 | like xfce is other than gnome, or gnome2 is other than gnome3, nothing more. |
| Strangelv | Aside from one or two familiar details DE 4 is something completely different. This will appeal to some people. I just wished they'de come up with a different name for their completely different product |
| rzs19 | things have changed, some like the new one, others like the old one. |
| jumpship | I don't really see KDE4 as a "competitor" to Trinity, they're such different |
| Strangelv | xfce seems closer in many ways to Gnome 2 than we are to KDE 4 |
| rzs19 | i think, ppl like martin doesnt used kde 3.5 |
| jumpship | Strangelv: agree |
| rzs19 | talkin about things, they dont know... |
| Strangelv | He seems to have forgotten it? Or it wasnt what he actualyl wanted so he was very happy to leave it all behind? |
| Strangelv | Aside from some tweaks that need to be made, TDE and also KDE 3 are very close to optimal |
| Strangelv | "...for me, that is |
| rzs19 | someone love awesome, some other likes jwm, others use amiwm. there is for everyone a desktop/wm. we need that diversity and not one that can maybe all... |
| rzs19 | and if someone will fork KDE 1.0 why not? |
| jumpship | Same here, I feel at home on my system, I don't get the same feeling with KDE4, but is that hate? If it wern't for Trinity, I prob would hate KDE4, cause I'd have to use it, the other choices are even further from what I want |
| rzs19 | its the same with wayland and xorg... |
| Strangelv | I wasn't able to get XF86 to run consistently during teh 1.0 era so I hardly know anything about it. I was attempting to dual boot despite the facht that it was a complete non-starter for me as I was running my system 24/7 and it only went down when it crashed, usually with me scrambrlisg to get back up and get back to work ASAP |
| rzs19 | my parents use kde4 and they like kde4. i use tde and i like it :) |
| Strangelv | What did they use before KDE 4? |
| rzs19 | windows? ^^° |
| jumpship | Windows, now that I DO hate :) |
| Strangelv | It also, I suppose, depends on your user habits. If you fit the use profile that KDE 4 is based on why wouldn't you be happy? |
| rzs19 | i'am happy that they like kde4 |
| * Strangelv very juch doesn't fit that profile. Thus the idea of showing off TDE's configurability |
| rzs19 | its easier to support it(for me), then windows. |
| rzs19 | here at work most use a linux distribution, but everyone uses a other one and a other desktop environment, or window manager. |
| rzs19 | and * |
| rzs19 | what every, you know what i mean. i like diversity :) |
| rzs19 | i don't want one environment. i want to choice :) |
| jumpship | Strangelv: You hit the nail on the head, I tried to migrate, I couldn't make it work for me, I would have had to make big changes in my use because I couldn't make the changes to KDE4, thats not to say I wouldn't put KDE4 on someone else's machine, same for gnome or xfce, depending on how they use their machine |
| rzs19 | ppl like mr. grässlin makes me a little bit angry and maybe it is posetiv thaht i don't have a cellar(you know i'am from austria) ;) |
| rzs19 | i hope that everone understand my (strange?) humor... |
| jumpship | I didn't read his article, I guess I could have used a translation, but I didn't bother |
| Strangelv | I ran into treasure troves of pathologically patronizing posts about anyone who wanted to keep using 3.5. That perhaps even more than KDE 4 itself is what set me off enough that I'm still angry about it years later |
| jumpship | That might be a big part of the problem, Trinity is kinda showing they might have been wrong |
| Strangelv | The direction I see thatwe should shoot for in the long run is to increase customizability |
| Strangelv | Something that came up in here a few days ago was the prospect of being able to dynamicalyl adjust the size of user widgets |
| Strangelv | We perhaps shouldn't even try to be the optimal solution for users who want a basic, simple experience, as that's what everyone else seems to be throwing away years of design work to pursue. Not everyone wants this. |
| Strangelv | I certianly don't. |
| jumpship | widgets as in kicker plugins, or buttons, checkboxes, etc? |
| Strangelv | I'm the complained about user or developer who never met a control I didn't like |
| Strangelv | "yes |
| Strangelv | buttons, scroll bars, radio buttons checkboxes progress meters |
| Strangelv | Someone mentioned that he didn't like the one I was using because it was too large for his tastes |
| jumpship | isn't that already possible to some extent? |
| jumpship | themes |
| Strangelv | "if I were going to make a size adjust ment I'd want to make things a little larger -- more than a little with a dispaly with a higher screen resolution |
| Strangelv | "Also, just how much moer control could we be giving users over their window decorations and widget style? |
| jumpship | I've never looked into the theme engine, I wonder how much room for adjustment there is |
| Strangelv | I don't know how it works and I need to |
| jumpship | It seems it requires coding in c++ (at least kwin themes), it would be nice if it themes were user creatable, but I imagine that would reduce functionality |
| Strangelv | Could we create a special user-customizable one? |
| jumpship | I don't see why not, but I'm a no coder |
| Strangelv | "have a paisley toolbar and rally think border,s razor thin scrollbars and a poorly tiling plaid background if that's what the user wants. 8) |
| Strangelv | "not toolbar. I can't think of the correct term. Complication is we presently have things separated between 'style' and 'decorations' -- we might be able to thinsk of a better way to arrange things. |
| jumpship | oh wait, that might alreay exist, trying to find out if what I'm reading is about kde3 |
| Strangelv | At a user interface level we're still pretty indistinguishable from KDE 3. It's under the hood where some things have become unrecognizable |
| jumpship | I mean this page I'm reading, I can't seem to find any official documentation |
| Strangelv | The orliginal and perhays no longer main desire to migrate to Qt4, descarding Automake after it broke compatibility one time too many during an incrimental revision, trying to avoid collisions with KDE 4... what other things have been our driving force? Besides the usual flow of keeping up with changes in packages we depend on? |
| jumpship | I'd guess customizability, but you'd have a better handle on the project than I would, I'm just a bystander yet |
| jumpship | anyway, I found this mention of Pixmap themes for kwin |
| Strangelv | I'm not one of the coders. I've spent most of my time attempting to wokr on marketing and branding |
| Strangelv | Wel,l that and getting hopelessyl sidetracked by my other already too numerous commitments |
| Strangelv | I never would have normlly gotten involved with this sort of thing. KDE 4 jeopardized almost everything I do, however |
| Strangelv | Especially wvhen I read about how militant some of the developers were at doing everything short of forcing users at gunpoint ot switch over |
| jumpship | Same here, I've never been this interested in any software project before, I just wish I could code |

| Strangelv | jumpship: what can you think of that you might be able to offer? Graphics? help text? testing? other? not sure? |
| Strangelv | That needs to be a FAQ section -- 'how can I help?' |
| jumpship | I just discovered something I didn't know was possible, trinity supports IceWM pixmap themes |
| jumpship | I don't know what I could do to help, I've been reading a lot to maybe try some coding, but it's been slow going |
| *** vhumpa has quit IRC |
| Strangelv | Maybe you can do research. 8) |

| damiano | Strangelv, and it's been fixed. Dunno if someone took my request or not, but it's alright now; |
| Strangelv | "Hello |
| Strangelv | I can't say as I'm still using 12 |
| damiano | it looks like KDE 3.0 tabs now |
| damiano | i wonder who did it though... probably someone heard me, but nobody speaks of it... |
| damiano | Strangelv, you should upgrade, 13 is ok |
| Strangelv | My main memory with 3.0 is that after I installed the second time my menus permanantly disappeared. I still have the HD for this system somewhere |
| damiano | well... TDE is not KDE ;) |
| Strangelv | Just set the repository and apt-get dist-upgrade? My plan at present is to fix networking on my notebook and test upgrading to 13 and the current version of Ubuntu on it first |
| Strangelv | The probrlem with my menus was the transition code was there in 3.0 but not in 3.1 |
| Strangelv | ...and my install disk was 2.x |
| Strangelv | ...and I didn' have the money to buy Liblanet 3.0 during the brief windhow it was available anywhere at any price |
| damiano | well... i dunno how to do it actually. |
| damiano | maybe to delete old one and install newer... |
| Strangelv | KDE 2 -> KDE 3 a completely historical problem anyway |
| Borg^Queen | What's distro have the latest release of tde stock |
| Borg^Queen | or do we have a fresh iso |
| Borg^Queen | Strangelv: I didn't have that many problems |
| Borg^Queen | the switch from kde2 to kde3, the biggest problem was konq crashing every now and then. |
| Strangelv | I didn't have that kind of problem when it was 2 -> 3.0 |
| Z_God | hah, you all remember the switch from 1 -> 2? |
| Strangelv | I had to reinstall sometime after that and 3.0 was no longer available in any respository I knew of as an intermediate step |
| Borg^Queen | What did you have? Do we have an ISO release, like a kubuntu? |
| *** MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop |
| Borg^Queen | Z_God: its was ok, just had to learn a bunch of new stuff |
| Borg^Queen | hi MutantTurkey |
| Borg^Queen | but I entered during the switch from 1 to 2 |
| * Z_God is happy he's not the only old person here |
| Strangelv | I missed 1 -> 2 as I didn't have a usable desktop until afterwords. I kept looking at the candy store dselect was offering and loaded up on packages that then failed to install and that was my installation. |
| Borg^Queen | lol |
| Borg^Queen | I'm always careful, only a couple of packages at a time. |
| MutantTurkey | hey |
| Borg^Queen | using rpms it was easy |
| Borg^Queen | hey |
| MutantTurkey | WOOHOO MY favorite band just reunited with their ex drummer! |
| Borg^Queen | So no ISOs? |
| MutantTurkey | :D |
| Borg^Queen | What band? |
| Z_God | Borg^Queen: not yet |
| Z_God | if you want a trinity only system, the best thing is still installing a commandline only ubuntu |
| Borg^Queen | rats |
| Z_God | and then adding the repos to that |
| Borg^Queen | I hate ubuntu, no offense |
| Strangelv | On at least one system I started with Ubuntustudia. I believe that's teh one running in my office |
| Strangelv | ubuntu isn't what it used to be. I'm open to suggestions for a Debian-sbased replacement that's as good as it used to be |
| Borg^Queen | isn't that a educational version? |
| Strangelv | It's the musician/editor/producer aimed version |
| Borg^Queen | Strangelv: aye the only good release of ubuntu was the first couple |
| MutantTurkey | I hate ubuntu as well. |
| Strangelv | So where did Ubuntu go wrong and what would we want to rip out in a custom TDE-centric distro that had access to its amazingly well supported package base? |
| damiano | Borg^Queen, what are you using then if you hate Ubuntu? |
| samelian | hey, anybody have a computer/laptop with host pluggable battery or something like this? |
| Strangelv | Is Ubuntu still loaded with gotchas for mixing its packages with regular Debian? |
| samelian | host = hot* |
| Borg^Queen | MutantTurkey: I don't trust What's his name, shuttfleford or worth, whatever |
| Borg^Queen | damiano: I use the releases of kubuntu rolled by Tim |
| damiano | ah |
| samelian | i will need to check my layer between TDE and DBus/UPower |
| Borg^Queen | Strangelv: yes and no |
| MutantTurkey | shuttleworth |
| Strangelv | "I'm not sure what constitutes not hot pluggable. You plug the bttery in and the system crashes or shuts down or loses its magic smoke? |
| MutantTurkey | samelian: I do. |
| Borg^Queen | MutantTurkey: that's the guy, don't trust him |
| MutantTurkey | a pluggable battery or a laptop battery? |
| MutantTurkey | yeah.... |
| MutantTurkey | not sure either |
| *** slacky has joined #trinity-desktop |
| samelian | I will need to check if events triggered when a new battery is plugged |
| *** slacky has quit IRC |
| MutantTurkey | samelian: I can do that |
| * Strangelv 's notebook has network problems that he has yet to solve. He can't even connect with a cable right now. He should probably test with a LiveCD to rule out hardware trouble |
| Borg^Queen | samelian: what model laptop, never heard of a hotpluggable bat for a lt |
| MutantTurkey | just pull out the battery while on regular laptop |
| samelian | ok, I will tell you when I'm ready with interface |
| MutantTurkey | Borg^Queen: mine is. |
| MutantTurkey | I can take it out and it stays on. |
| Borg^Queen | cool |
| MutantTurkey | at least. |
| MutantTurkey | then replu |
| Borg^Queen | Hmm careful |
| Borg^Queen | Are you sure you can do that |
| *** slacky has joined #trinity-desktop |
| samelian | i won't to risk to unplug my battery when the laptop is running :) |
| Borg^Queen | hi slacky |
| Strangelv | My notebook is running 12 and Meerkat, so it's not good for testing anything current |
| *** slacky has quit IRC |
| Borg^Queen | I don't keep laptops, I fix them up and donate them to kollige stooodents and the home bound |
| Borg^Queen | but I realize, I should keep a few for testing. I mostly get rubbish for trade ins but I also get Ibms too. |
| Strangelv | For a few years that was what I did almost everything on because I didn't have a solution for installing a desktop in my cramped and seriously cluttered bedroom |
| Borg^Queen | brb |
| Borg^Queen | Ah, I always made room for a desktop. I prefer them to LTs |
| Strangelv | Actually if there was a LiveCD image with what needed ot be tested i could do it that awy |
| Borg^Queen | brb |
| samelian | MutantTurkey: you accept a binary from me to make a test? |
| Strangelv | I stopped using notebooks for the most part when I solved that problem. My main problem now is finding two affordable Socket F fans so that I no longer have a workstation at one end of my house that can be heard from the other |
| MutantTurkey | samelian: sure |
| samelian | hang on |
| MutantTurkey | x86_64 |
| MutantTurkey | build it statically? |
| samelian | MutantTurkey: wget thel.ro/upower_test |
| samelian | no, x86 |
| samelian | hmm, will not working |
| MutantTurkey | no it won |
| MutantTurkey | can you build a 64bit binary? |
| samelian | nope, I have a 64 bit machine prepared for TDE |
| *** woodsman has joined #trinity-desktop |
| samelian | hang on, I will give you sources |
| MutantTurkey | gcc -m64 |
| samelian | I hope will be compilable |
| MutantTurkey | that will build it in 64bits |
| MutantTurkey | afaik |
| samelian | maybe, but my tde is 32 bit |
| MutantTurkey | :/ |

| MutantTurkey | got it |
| MutantTurkey | got it |
| MutantTurkey | okay |
| MutantTurkey | No rule to make target /opt/trinity/lib/libkglib.so.0, needed by eventloop |
| samelian | I think can be removed |
| samelian | I do not use it anymore |
| Borg^Queen | MutantTurkey: what does that mean, the error |
| MutantTurkey | ok |
| samelian | meaning that libkglib.so.0 doesn't on his system |
| MutantTurkey | right |
| samelian | is one of mine earlier attempts |
| Borg^Queen | doesn't what |
| MutantTurkey | do you want a backtrace or anything? |
| samelian | a bridge betwen TDE and glib |
| *** woodsman has quit IRC |
| damiano | does anybody know, is there a way to record skype without using skype recorder? |
| samelian | MutantTurkey: you can run it? |
| MutantTurkey | recording off of /dev/video |
| MutantTurkey | samelian: yes |
| Borg^Queen | damiano: what do you mean |
| damiano | i mean audio |
| damiano | to record convos |
| samelian | is enough a copy paste of output |
| MutantTurkey | samelian: okay |
| Borg^Queen | Oh yes, use rezound or audacity or soniK |
| MutantTurkey | let me try |
| damiano | Borg^Queen, does it really work like that? Would be cool |
| damiano | gonna try with Audacity |
| Borg^Queen | set the reording app to record from the internal output |
| damiano | thanks! |
| damiano | :) |
| damiano | i'll give it a shot |
| damiano | i knew it's possible without skype recorder |
| Borg^Queen | good luck it helps of you have software mixing |
| damiano | yeah, i do. |
| damiano | since not long ago |
| damiano | had to update ALSA, and Z_God helped me with that |
| Borg^Queen | ok good, I know it works for me because I've done the same. |
| MutantTurkey | samelian: http://pastebin.com/ANyZB00U |
| MutantTurkey | that is the output of of taking battery out and back in |
| damiano | but i had to compile it, it's not available for Debian as deb.. |
| samelian | nice, there is little error |
| MutantTurkey | Borg^Queen: have you seen Fat-Zer latel |
| MutantTurkey | samelian: all is okay? |
| damiano | now sound is even nice than in Windows.. sound there is a bit fuzzy.. |
| samelian | I pasted by mistake "remove" on add "procedure" |
| damiano | nicer* |
| Borg^Queen | Nope, not for a long time, but I've also been off for a while too |
| samelian | MutantTurkey: replate line #359 in UPower_TClient_p.cpp |
| samelian | with qWarning("Device added: %s", path.latin1()); |
| MutantTurkey | replate? |
| samelian | replace :) |
| damiano | works!! |
| MutantTurkey | okay :D |
| Z_God | damiano: you actually have a deb now |
| damiano | Audacity rocks |
| damiano | Z_God, i know |
| damiano | Z_God, but i had to make it, had i not? |
| Z_God | yep, but also based on another deb |
| damiano | ah.. |
| Z_God | there is also the option of really doing it with only source packages |
| Z_God | but that is significantly messier |
| MutantTurkey | samelian: what is the reason for using qt? |
| MutantTurkey | isnt that just slow? |
| MutantTurkey | let me recompile |
| damiano | well thanks again man.. without you i'd never have made it. Furthermore this chan has been more helpful to me in all the ways than Debian support one. |
| damiano | Z_God, so shall i keep the deb for future? |
| Z_God | I guess the debian one is overcrowded |
| Z_God | damiano: if you'll be using the same kernel, then yes |
| samelian | MutantTurkey: is a tde layer, qt is required :) |
| Z_God | otherwise, just compile it again |
| damiano | aha, goit it |
| damiano | thanks :) |
| damiano | it's overcrowded yes, but of no advantage |
| damiano | there are only questions, but no answers ;) |
| Z_God | yes, that's the problem of the overcrowdedness |
| Z_God | I had the same when I tried to ask smth about ubuntu |
| Strangelv | Taht sounds like teh Ubunut channel I was in. No one answeerd my questions normally, I spent all my time helping other pe;ople with their problems, and got in trouble for telling pople to create a root password... |
| Strangelv | "Things to change in an ubuntu package using distro: have a root password |
| Strangelv | anyone who would run away scraming fgorm teh idea is probably not using our desktop environment |
| Borg^Queen | ? |
| Z_God | I don't get it either |
| Z_God | I avoid root passwords as well now |
| damiano | you know what, if all those people knew that help is being held better here they'd all just kick in here |
| Borg^Queen | oh hell no. I always have a root password |
| damiano | and thank goodness they don't know it :) |
| Z_God | I don't see the point of having one if sudo is secure |
| Strangelv | I have a minimum of one root console running at all times. Actually two. One in konsole the other in TTY2 |
| Strangelv | "Frequantly another in TTY3 |
| Z_God | I luckily do not need to do system administration on my own boxes so often |
| MutantTurkey | http://pastebin.com/zmxk5Acr |
| Strangelv | My understanding is Sudo isn't more secure, but itas also a lot more typing. I suppose it depends on how long your password is... |
| Z_God | Strangelv: your setup is not secury outside of a private environment |
| samelian | MutantTurkey: cool, working as expected |
| samelian | thanks |
| MutantTurkey | ok awesome |
| Borg^Queen | its a phrase in Gealic |
| Z_God | someone could walk in & have root on your box |
| Z_God | secure* |
| MutantTurkey | and qt is required? |
| samelian | this layer will stay between TDE and UPower |
| MutantTurkey | is it interacting with dbus or what? |
| Strangelv | Yes, I'm rlelyingo n my being in a privaet environment |
| samelian | yes |
| Strangelv | So other's mileage may vary substantially |
| Borg^Queen | aye |
| Z_God | at work this is a no-no |
| Strangelv | so maybe a root password is held as an option |
| MutantTurkey | so do programs directly functions? or do they call dbus? |
| samelian | I will create a constellation of layers between TDE and upower, udisk, networkmanager etc |
| samelian | call dbus |
| samelian | then we will just create some nice interfaces for network, power, disk management |
| MutantTurkey | awesome |
| MutantTurkey | you rock! |
| samelian | will be a kind of interface between TDE and Linux ecosystem |
| samelian | i tell you, TDE will be much nicer than KDE4 :) |
| * Strangelv cheers loudly |
| samelian | at least from developer perspective |
| MutantTurkey | well definitely |
| MutantTurkey | this is truely awesome |
| MutantTurkey | you suspect it will be ready for R14? |
| * MutantTurkey rather likes calling it R14 instead of 3.5.14 |
| samelian | I think yes, I will recreate KPowersave, based on this new upower layer |
| samelian | I intent to make kcontrol module for this |
| MutantTurkey | excellent |
| Xu_R | yo, people :) |
| MutantTurkey | that is good |
| MutantTurkey | Xu_R: yo samelian is making good progress on Upower |
| Xu_R | w00t! :D |

| MutantTurkey | the front? |
| Borg^Queen | HAL stinks, no offencce |

| Borg^Queen | yes, ok |

| samelian | I have many plans for TDE, but I have'n enough time :) |
| damiano | xchat doesn't play anything automatically... |
| damiano | no sounds at all |
| Borg^Queen | samelian: :( |
| Borg^Queen | make sure you have it set to use the right sound engine |
| Xu_R | damiano: I think you have to set sounds |
| Xu_R | because my Xchat doesn't do it either |
| samelian | sometime I want to change kdesktop, to support a kind of widgets, like plasmoids |
| Xu_R | but i'm happy with it being mute because the notification popup is easier |
| Xu_R | than tons of sounds |
| damiano | Xu_R, hm... |
| damiano | well, sometimes i don't notice it blinking |
| damiano | that's the prob |
| damiano | so i need at least a little beep |
| Xu_R | oic |
| Xu_R | should be on settings -> alerts |
| MutantTurkey | samelian: see how that goes over with Tim... |
| damiano | yeah, i've checked it |
| MutantTurkey | I dont think he likes that idea |
| damiano | but nothing. |
| Xu_R | restart xchat? >_> |
| damiano | hm... can try. |
| MutantTurkey | I would like to create a plugin based system that is extensible though. |
| damiano | but that shouldn't matter.. |
| damiano | i think. |
| *** damiano has quit IRC |
| samelian | MutantTurkey: what kind of idea disagree Tim? |
| samelian | plasmoids? |
| MutantTurkey | plasmoids, widgets |
| MutantTurkey | he doesnt like them I dont think |
| samelian | hmm, can be very usefull |
| samelian | for network status, notes, etc |
| Xu_R | I agree, that can be very useful. >_> however, we should not force everything into a widget like KDE4... |
| samelian | for sure |
| *** damiano has joined #trinity-desktop |
| damiano | now try it |
| Borg^Queen | are plasmoids any good |
| Borg^Queen | They've always seemed to be a bother to get going |
| samelian | this must pe carefuly planned |
| samelian | be* |
| Borg^Queen | A plasmoid |
| Borg^Queen | ? |
| MutantTurkey | samelian: hopefully not eat all my CPU |
| Xu_R | no, a plasmoid |
| Xu_R | is like google widgets |
| MutantTurkey | I think it should be very plugin based |
| Xu_R | on your desktop. |
| MutantTurkey | I know |
| MutantTurkey | samelian: plugin based C++ modules? |
| samelian | I think that kdesktop widget should be like a small applets, similar to kdetray |
| Strangelv | Could we allow a wiredr range of languages? |
| Borg^Queen | I don't like google widgets or yahoo, they're so problematic. I've always like karamba |
| samelian | yes, kind of kde modules, like for kcontrol |
| MutantTurkey | Strangelv: no that is bad. |
| MutantTurkey | just adds bloat... |
| * Xu_R points to kdebindings as proof |
| MutantTurkey | samelian: wait! |
| MutantTurkey | what about using Kparts? |
| MutantTurkey | couldn't we in theory just use kparts? |
| samelian | yes, something like this |
| MutantTurkey | to embed a browser, a file manager |
| MutantTurkey | etc |
| MutantTurkey | then create kparts for specific desktop stuff |
| MutantTurkey | like plasmoids |
| Borg^Queen | what are you guys trying to do |
| samelian | for example, would be nice to integrate konsole kpart into kdesktop :) |
| jumpship | I'd love it if kicker panels could sorta float anywhere on screen and be set to stay behind windows, then any kicker applet could be a widget |
| Borg^Queen | MutantTurkey: oh that's smart |
| MutantTurkey | samelian: so kparts are already done |
| MutantTurkey | all needed is integration with kdestop |
| samelian | yes, we just need to change kdekstop to accept it |
| MutantTurkey | hmmm |
| MutantTurkey | that is good. I like that. |
| samelian | and we will be able integrate anything in desktop |
| MutantTurkey | also I am thinking about creating a kickre applet for similar kpart integration |
| MutantTurkey | basically i could embed konsole into it or something, have it work like yakuake |
| Borg^Queen | MutantTurkey: you have milliseconds of genius. |
| MutantTurkey | samelian: cheers! you are quite the genius! |
| samelian | but there are for future, I'm the only one, TDE is big :) |
| samelian | hehe |
| Strangelv | This could also presumably allow a user to not even run Kicker or Kickoff |
| Borg^Queen | oh sweet really, I love yakuake |
| MutantTurkey | tde is not so big as i thought |
| MutantTurkey | it is big though |
| MutantTurkey | gotta go guys |
| MutantTurkey | calss is over |
| MutantTurkey | :) |
| * Strangelv waves |
| MutantTurkey | be back later |
| Borg^Queen | bye |
| samelian | Strangelv: yes, like window maker :) |
| Borg^Queen | samelian: you and MutantTurkey make a good team |
| samelian | hehe |
| Borg^Queen | brb crakmonkey crying on phone |
| samelian | btw, should be nice to find a solution to isolate somehow plugin from kdesktop |
| samelian | otherwise, bad written widget will crash kdesktop either |
| jumpship | How does superkaramba fit in with that idea, isn't that what it's for? |
| *** MutantTurkey has quit IRC |
| samelian | not sure, I did not used superkaramba |
| damiano | hmmm |
| jumpship | Me either, always planned on looking into it, never did |
| damiano | i missed one thing... |
| samelian | I think should be like kwin, wich embrace any arbitrary application with borders |
| damiano | it records skype only, but not me talking... cause there can be either stereo mixer or mic... how did you say yoy do it? |
| jumpship | Well, it might be as simple as a mod to kwin, one sec |
| damiano | i guess mic has to be a part of stereo mixer, all in one, somehow |
| jumpship | Looking at kwin's user rules, any window can be forced to a specific size, and forced to be always below other windows |
| Borg^Queen | damiano: make sure you mic is set to on. you need to be able to hear youself too. |
| Borg^Queen | Use headphones |
| samelian | jumpship: yes, kind of |
| jumpship | also no task bar or system tray |
| Borg^Queen | jumpship: kwin has a lot of advantagges |
| damiano | Borg^Queen, that's what i'm doing |
| damiano | have no speakers |
| Borg^Queen | ok |
| Borg^Queen | ah ok |
| damiano | Borg^Queen, let's see... |
| samelian | damiano: there is TDE channel :) |
| Borg^Queen | jumpship: I like taskbars and systrays, I have an upper and lower kicker |
| damiano | samelian, huh? |
| Borg^Queen | ? |
| samelian | I mean, skype is not a subject related to tde |
| Borg^Queen | Its not a skype issue |
| jumpship | Borg^Queen: So do I, I have a lot of panels |
| Borg^Queen | jumpship: aye |
| jumpship | I use kwins rules to embed vlc sorta into kicker |
| Borg^Queen | samelian: he's trying to record skype using kde tde tools |
| Borg^Queen | jumpship: really lol |
| samelian | ah, I did not noticed |
| Borg^Queen | samelian: not to worry, you were only trying to help. |
| jumpship | So, what would a desktop widget do or have that can't be done with that? |
| Borg^Queen | samelian: however, that bit of info is good to know. I didn't know they had a skype channel. |
| samelian | i'm not sure yet, is just an idea for the further development |
| damiano | well.. audacity is not really a kde/tde tool :) |
| damiano | at least not the one i'm using here.. |
| Borg^Queen | true but still. I would recommend rezound better control |
| Borg^Queen | samelian: what are you trying to achieve? |
| jumpship | I like MT's idea of a kparts kicker applet, that could connect even more stuff |
| damiano | listen... the prob is, it allows me to use mic or stereo mixer (no mic), but not together... and also, it corresponds with ALSA and changes the source respectivelly. |
| samelian | Borg^Queen: to expose my unrealistic ideas :) |
| Borg^Queen | LOL |
| damiano | what should be the input source anyway? |
| Borg^Queen | samelian: that's what they said about putting a human on the moon |
| Borg^Queen | damiano: ambiant and mic |
| damiano | ambiant?! |
| damiano | what's that? |
| Borg^Queen | That's why you need hardware or software mixing |
| damiano | i see....... |
| Borg^Queen | ambiant is any sound playing |
| samelian | Borg^Queen: unforunately we are only few developers with enough skills to implement these ideas |
| damiano | ok.. so it appears i have no hardware mixing. Though... skype recorder would still allow me to do that. |
| damiano | but let us just think it has its own magic. What now? Do i have to install something? |
| Borg^Queen | samelian: never give up |
| samelian | actually I want to work on low level things |
| samelian | dbus, kioslaves, etc |
| Borg^Queen | kioslave rocks |
| samelian | yeap |
| Borg^Queen | damiano: without knowing how your laptop is setup, I'm limited in what I can do to help. |
| samelian | I working on a replacement for kio_sftp, based on libssh2 |
| jumpship | Borg^Queen: If you saw Strangelv's animation the other day, that last screenshot is mine |
| damiano | Borg^Queen, actually i have no laptop |
| Borg^Queen | To record two sounds, your voice and skype, you need to be able to play two sounds at the same time. |
| samelian | but kio_sftp project stalled because a bug in libssh2 |
| damiano | Borg^Queen, but i can copy the details of my audio setup to you. |
| Borg^Queen | jumpship: checking |
| Borg^Queen | damiano: wouldn't help, |
| damiano | hm... |
| damiano | alright.. |
| Borg^Queen | you need to beable to play two sounds at once |
| Borg^Queen | try it |
| damiano | i dunno how! It's either one or another. |
| Borg^Queen | open a movie and a play a tune |
| damiano | when i switch to stereo mixer is shuts off the mic |
| damiano | and the other way around |
| Borg^Queen | ah, then you can't |
| damiano | yep.. that's the prob.. |
| Borg^Queen | no audio mixing |
| Borg^Queen | rats |
| damiano | so.. that means i can't record skype. |
| Borg^Queen | I would take samelian advice and go to #skype, they might know a trick |
| jumpship | Your sound card prob is only able to record from one source at a time, and with skype you'd need the rec source set to mic |
| damiano | yep... |
| Borg^Queen | jumpship: cool nick btw |
| jumpship | The only way I can think of would be to use something like jack (maybe pulse can so it) |
| jumpship | I like your's as well |
| jumpship | I'm in the middle of rewatching TNG right now |
| Borg^Queen | your desktop is the one with vlc and the backyard? |
| Borg^Queen | sunday 11:44 am? |
| jumpship | yeah, that pic is ron Strangelv, he didn't think The original I was using was a good idea |
| jumpship | ron=from |
| Borg^Queen | how do you mean? |
| jumpship | it was a pic or tux swating at the MS butterfly that was attacking carmen electra |
| Borg^Queen | LOL |
| jumpship | I got it off the web, search for "tux defends carmen" if ya wanna see it |
| Borg^Queen | lol ok |
| jumpship | One of my favorites |

| MutantTurkey | pissing me off |
| MutantTurkey | jumpship: what? |
| MutantTurkey | lets keep it P.G. this is a family channel :P |
| Borg^Queen | o0 |
| jumpship | I was just talking about the wallpaper I was using when I sent Strangelv my screencap the first time |
| Borg^Queen | this is one of my favs http://www.wallpaperist.com/wallpapers/Funny/No-more-Vista-800-600.jpg |
| jumpship | It was brought up then that it was prob a bad idea to use that pic in the promo animation |
| jumpship | Thats great, his troubles are over, too bad he didn't know about alterantives |
| Borg^Queen | Well it was shown to me by a client that I switched to linux. |
| Borg^Queen | He tried, xp, vista and win7 and always had problems. Bought 8 computers. |
| Borg^Queen | Turns out none of them were broken as MS suggested. |
| jumpship | MutantTurkey: http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/249/jumpship.jpg/ if you were wondering |
| MutantTurkey | oh that :p |
| MutantTurkey | yes a bad idea definitely |
| MutantTurkey | also we want to have a healthy range of images |
| Borg^Queen | lol |
| MutantTurkey | newish looking, sleek, minimal, bloated, old school, redmond |
| MutantTurkey | ya know? |
| MutantTurkey | to show flexible. |
| jumpship | I couldn't find it, but a friend on mine that I switched had a wallpaper that was a very bloody squashed MS butterfly |
| Borg^Queen | nice |
| jumpship | Speaking of looks, did anyone know you could use Icewm themes with trinity? |
| samelian | only if you replace kwin with icewm window manager :) |
| jumpship | No need, kwin has a theme that uses icewm pixmap themes |
| damiano | found skype recorder for amd64. works fine. |
| damiano | one guy built it. |
| jumpship | I had no idea, I never bothered to use anything special because it looked like it required c++ for a custom kwin theme |
| damiano | to be fair, it's better than any windows one |
| jumpship | samelian: Since your a coder, do you think it would be difficult to make kwin a bit easier for a user to create simple themes? |
| MutantTurkey | yes |
| MutantTurkey | it would be |
| samelian | hmm, i'm not sure, I'm not familiar with kwin |
| Borg^Queen | ok I did a google search for "go rangers" an old amime and got celtic music |
| MutantTurkey | I am vaguely familiar with kwin |
| MutantTurkey | I have been hacking on itall week |
| jumpship | MutantTurkey: why do you say that? |
| MutantTurkey | fixing up the laptop theme |
| MutantTurkey | because it would require basically a wysiwyg editor for it |
| MutantTurkey | a total PITA |
| Borg^Queen | lol |
| MutantTurkey | themes basically are using maual Qt drawing calls |
| Borg^Queen | kwin is great but it needs to be cleaned up |
| MutantTurkey | if you just need pixmaps, use the icewm themer |
| jumpship | I mean sorta integrate what is already there in the icewm theme |
| MutantTurkey | Borg^Queen: whats wrong wit hit? |
| MutantTurkey | jumpship: well use that icewm thinger |
| damiano | can anyone tell me why Tahoma's "P" look weird on linux? :) |
| MutantTurkey | whats wrong with the icewm one? |
| MutantTurkey | damiano: I hate linux fonts >_> |
| Borg^Queen | everyone says it needs to be cleaned of spare code and updated slightly |
| MutantTurkey | everything looks crap |
| MutantTurkey | Borg^Queen: welcome to software 101 |
| damiano | MutantTurkey, me too, but it's win's tahoma, it's fune |
| damiano | fine* |
| Borg^Queen | MutantTurkey: ? |
| jumpship | I don't really mean for myself, I have no prob with that, Strangelv and I were talking about it earlier, I just wondered |
| damiano | i disabled anti-aliasing too with sharpfonts scropt |
| damiano | script* |
| MutantTurkey | this is required for all code. |
| Borg^Queen | I have no problems with fonts |
| MutantTurkey | damiano: I dunno, I like anti aliasing |
| damiano | Borg^Queen, on high res LCD monitors it may not be noticeable |
| Borg^Queen | MutantTurkey: I know that, but it hasn't been cleaned in while, according to kde |
| damiano | MutantTurkey, nah, that's the problem, it's anti-aliasing that causing all the crap |
| damiano | or hinting |
| damiano | it's not correct on linux |
| Borg^Queen | damiano: I use lcd and crt |
| Borg^Queen | but you're right, fonts look bad under 1024x768 |
| damiano | i'm on 800x600 ;) |
| Borg^Queen | oooooh that's why |
| damiano | but i removed all anti-aliasing as i installed sharpfonts script and it's very good. |
| MutantTurkey | Borg^Queen: right, which is why we need more maintainers for specific code |
| damiano | so everything looks like in Windows ;) |
| Borg^Queen | MutantTurkey: your kb to God's screen |
| MutantTurkey | ? |
| samelian | damiano: if you won't use antialising, you need to recompile freetype with bytecode interpreter |
| Borg^Queen | MutantTurkey: we need more devels |
| MutantTurkey | yes |
| MutantTurkey | which means people need to step up |
| MutantTurkey | cough cough |
| damiano | samelian, let me just show you. |
| MutantTurkey | not just general devels |
| samelian | damiano: this is my desktop |
| samelian | http://thel.ro/desktop.png |
| MutantTurkey | I mean specific devels |
| Strangelv | "Is anytnhing in Python and/or Javascript? 8) |
| MutantTurkey | if someone could take over stuff like kwin specifically |
| damiano | is that your desktop? |
| MutantTurkey | or kicker etc |
| damiano | samelian |
| Borg^Queen | MutantTurkey: I'm not a hacker, I do hardware |
| Borg^Queen | just learning to mess about with it |
| damiano | oh yeah, i see |
| damiano | well, let me show you mine |
| MutantTurkey | Borg^Queen: learn or donate yotime in another wayur |
| damiano | http://89.28.122.14:8080/Screenshot-3.png |
| MutantTurkey | as long as you help :) |
| Borg^Queen | MutantTurkey: I've got a stack of test machines here waiting |
| damiano | http://89.28.122.14:8080/Screenshot-4.png |
| MutantTurkey | Borg^Queen: test test test! |
| samelian | damiano: I think you font is a little too big |
| samelian | try to reduce it |
| damiano | it's just lowres |
| Borg^Queen | Doing that |
| damiano | i can make it smaller, but no need. |
| damiano | i like it this way. I just need another monitor. |
| MutantTurkey | yeah |
| damiano | samelian, i've done it many times, i can put it to 8, but i'm ok with 9 |
| samelian | i see |
| samelian | but "P" still ugly with 8? |
| damiano | 8 looks better on TDE |
| damiano | hm... never checked.. let me see :) |
| samelian | hmm, seems that my "P" is pixeled either, I did not notice it until now :) |
| samelian | but is not noticeable easy on 1280x800 |
| damiano | on TDE it wasn't like that though |
| damiano | only on Gnome |
| damiano | samelian, i have a little request |
| samelian | ? |
| damiano | could you go to web right now and make a screenshot of any page? Or google search? Just type in something and i wanna see how the page gets displayed |
| MutantTurkey | darrell is awesome |
| samelian | sure, hang on |
| Borg^Queen | ? |
| damiano | there's something about fonts... some bold ones are blurry by me...like sharpfonts didn't work on it. Though also depends on the browser. |
| damiano | ok. |

| *** K`zan has joined #trinity-desktop |
| damiano | i see. |
| damiano | interesting. |
| MutantTurkey | samelian: how much progress have you on Upower? |
| MutantTurkey | time announced that r14 was bug release only, I said "what about samelians power interface" |
| MutantTurkey | he didnt know you have been working on it. |
| samelian | MutantTurkey: i'm not sure yet, this is just an abstract layer to upower |
| samelian | to be usable, we need to write a brand new power management system |
| samelian | a replacement for kpowersave |
| samelian | and, as I said, this new application should be part of kcontrol |
| MutantTurkey | right so probably not done for R14 |
| samelian | when will be released R14? |
| MutantTurkey | 6 months afaik |
| MutantTurkey | but we are shooting for VERY VERY stable desktop |
| samelian | aa, plenty of time |
| samelian | I very close to finish abstract layer |
| MutantTurkey | okay, are you on email access right now? |
| samelian | yes |
| MutantTurkey | could you respond to the thread "Quality Assurance" |
| MutantTurkey | that is where i mentioned you |
| samelian | however, I'm not sure that we will be able to drop HAL at all, because we will need other abstact layer, to udisk, for example |
| MutantTurkey | are you not writing it for udisk as well? |
| MutantTurkey | sorry for ruining the suprise :x |
| samelian | haha |
| samelian | no, I want to write it modular |
| samelian | each module with its own namespace, etc |
| samelian | but I will try to make they consistent |
| MutantTurkey | I like this |
| MutantTurkey | then we can slowly phase our hal |
| MutantTurkey | out' |
| Borg^Queen | ok gn to all |
| Borg^Queen | yes please, hal always messed up for me |

| l0ner | byte? |
| Strangelv | It really needs to get back into print. That's the one magazine EVERYONE was subscribed to |
| l0ner | ok, a magazin |
| l0ner | e |
| l0ner | argh... I can't really think at this hour |
| Strangelv | Perhaps the most important one in the history of computin,g at least after 1975 |
| l0ner | and after 8h spent at university |
| Strangelv | Datamation or similar may hald that distinction for prior to that |

| l0ner | and on top of that i'm listening to the narwhals song... |
