kb9vqf | I'm still setting it up |

Strangelv | Noticed that the PID keeps incrimenting |
kb9vqf | Ctrl+C will do that ;-) |
kb9vqf | He won't do anything here for a while |
Strangelv | There's no equivalent for a talk page with FOSWiki, is there? |
kb9vqf | I don't know, sorry |
kb9vqf | I kind of like FOSWiki but I think I may be the only one here who does :-( |
*Strangelv has also discovered that the markup isn't whath's throwing him -- it's that it saves not the markup but an html version of it, then converts the html back to markup, losing important things along the way | |
Strangelv | "What are its strong points? |
kb9vqf | Hang on |
kb9vqf | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_wiki_software |
Strangelv | I've tried to use worse. It may actualyl be the second best wiki available, from my admittedly limited and dated experience |
kb9vqf | Scroll down to Features |
kb9vqf | The WYSIWYG editor is one |
kb9vqf | Extensibility is another |
kb9vqf | I also seem to have stopped Wiki spam cold :) |
kb9vqf | And you can't beat the license |

Strangelv | What are some of the worst? |
kb9vqf | I like the one on the bottom :) |
kb9vqf | By the way, TQt stands for "Trinity Qt", not "Tiny Qt" ;-) |
kb9vqf | It's anything BUT tiny |
kb9vqf | Qt4 should be called "Tiny Qt" |
kb9vqf | Seeing as it's missing so many features |
Strangelv | "It's open for confusion, and if we call it Trinity Qt it might discourage other developers from believing it would have anything to do with their needs |
kb9vqf | I suppose |
kb9vqf | Well, it's not released yet |
kb9vqf | It can always be renamed |
kb9vqf | The Qt4 variant that is |

kb9vqf | Nice and professional, that! |
*tbottu has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Piki | and perhaps at some point program it with some FAQs about TDE and TQt |
kb9vqf | It does have info abilities |
Strangelv | RadKade1 had a bot in gameslink #unreal that kept a list of amusing quotes and would play one back at random. ...it was a bit less business than this one... |
kb9vqf | Heh :) |
Piki | so we can just do "!tqt" and have it display a list of it's FAQs |
*kb9vqf plays some ut2004 now and then | |
kb9vqf | Piki: yes |
Piki | i don't paly games much, occasional pacman or super mario, but nothing fancy or overly-violent, i prefer mild |
kb9vqf | Supertux anyone ? |
*kb9vqf doesn't play often either | |
kb9vqf | But every now and then can be amusing |

kb9vqf | He's kind of dumb right now |
kb9vqf | tbottu: what is tqt? |
tbottu | kb9vqf: I have heard that tqt is the Trinity Qt Interface |
Piki | kb9vqf: it's one of the all time classics, you're not a gaming fan until you've played super mario, sonic, zelda, and the old arcade classics ;-) |
kb9vqf | Nope, not a gaming fan here |
kb9vqf | Though I do like the older arcade games |

tbottu | Strangelv: Sorry, I've no idea what 'Does the wiki have the DebianRepositoryPlugin' might be. |

kb9vqf | You can give tbottu information like this: tbottu: The capital of Assyria is Assur |
kb9vqf | tbottu: The capital of Assyria is Assur |
tbottu | kb9vqf: ok |

Strangelv | Mike likes my three gears graphic but is wondering how to make it recognizabel at 16x16px |
kb9vqf | Good question |
*Strangelv summons teh Master Mold | |
Strangelv | My guess is to make the three colors sufficientyl distinct |
Strangelv | "The colors are placeholders. I'm thinking in terms of grabing them from the KDE 3 branding |
Strangelv | It might also make sense to change the positions of the gears |
Strangelv | "Thera re more ideas that I have badly sketched itn oraneg marke,r but I've not created vector graphics for them yet |
*Strangelv needs to get up and go te the kitchen sometime | |
Strangelv | Actually ,looking at the page, there's really only one more I realyl want to spend tim making. |
Strangelv | It's for the built on a solid foundation concept |
Strangelv | A wall with missing portions and whit epaint that amkes for a giant lowercase 't' |
kb9vqf | Sounds good to replace my junky TQT logo ;-) |
Strangelv | Aerl you the one who made teh interim TDE logo? |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | From the original KDE logo |
Strangelv | What source files did you have? |
kb9vqf | The svg source |
kb9vqf | svgz |
kb9vqf | That's it |
Strangelv | "That could definitely help. Where is it located? |
kb9vqf | It's in the kdelibs module IIRC |
Strangelv | "I could grab colors off of that if nothing else |
kb9vqf | Sure |
kb9vqf | It opens fine in Inkscape |
Strangelv | Also I was wondering about the location of the powered on graphics |
kb9vqf | ? |
kb9vqf | Where are they used in the Trinity UI? |
Strangelv | during startup |
kb9vqf | Those are usually distro-specific |
kb9vqf | The Ubuntu ones I made from the Ubuntu KDE logo |
Strangelv | It might be something to tinker on iven if it's only for Tubuntu |
kb9vqf | Why not |
kb9vqf | I don't remember offhand where those files are |
kb9vqf | Probably in the kubuntu splash package |
kb9vqf | for plymouth |
kb9vqf | Be warned the color palette is very limited during startup |
Strangelv | is the color palette part of teh image or is trial and error required? |
kb9vqf | Set it to 8 bit and you should be OK |
kb9vqf | It varies from system to system |
kb9vqf | Intel provides a full 32-bit palette |
kb9vqf | nVidia provides the lousy 8-bit one |
kb9vqf | And there's a whole range in between |
Strangelv | Will any 8 bit pallet work or is there a specific one? Have an equivalent of the 256 color safe palette that went out the windowm when only 22 of them, mostly bright greens, worked with 16 bit too? |
kb9vqf | The 256 color one |
kb9vqf | That's the safest |
*Strangelv grew up with 8 bits for 6 colors on 7 pixels. He can adjust | |
kb9vqf | :) |
*kb9vqf grew up on a very similar system | |
Strangelv | Which one? |
kb9vqf | An old 486 SX |
kb9vqf | DOS FTW |
Strangelv | Okay, that's WAAY ahead of what I grew up on |
kb9vqf | Heh |
kb9vqf | What's yours |
kb9vqf | ? |
kb9vqf | BTW it was new at the time :) |
Strangelv | When I was 11 my father spent enough money to buy a car on a top end Apple ][ plus |

Strangelv | What sorts of things would we need to have in place to call a nw version 3.6.00? |
kb9vqf | I'd like it converted to TQt |
Strangelv | fully working Qt4 support I presume |
kb9vqf | At least at alpha stage |
kb9vqf | The Trinity code itself should be nearly finalized |
kb9vqf | All bugs added during TQt-porting should be fixed |
Strangelv | finalized in what sense? |
kb9vqf | The bit about the bugs |
*kb9vqf was unclear, sorry | |
Strangelv | Always remember: there will always be open trouble tickets |
kb9vqf | It should run correctly under Qt3 and compile under Qt4 |
kb9vqf | Of course |
Strangelv | "Stomping out the show-stoppers is important |
kb9vqf | I just mean bugs that were added as a result of the TQt port |
kb9vqf | And show stoppers |
Strangelv | "So you're thinking of modest changes? |
Strangelv | a new grlaphical scheme would be good to have to go along with it |
kb9vqf | A new theme? |

*Strangelv doesn't find much | |
kb9vqf | Qt3 doesn't really have GUI pixmaps |
kb9vqf | Most GUI elements are painted on via C++ style code |

kb9vqf | Where'd that come from??!?? |
Piki | LOL |
*Strangelv withholds judgement on C++ | |
Strangelv | "I'w assuming it's a default |
kb9vqf | "I never knew anything about 'C++' in the first place!" |
Piki | now i'm wandering about php and html ;-) |
Strangelv | There was a gimmick software program that seemed nice until you found out one of its defaults prevented Winodws from starting -- it seemed to assume everyone was mostly using DOS |
Strangelv | Python is enourmously more intuitive than C++. For that matter, so is C... |
*kb9vqf wonders if that was the Greeting module | |
kb9vqf | It might have been randomly spewing things |
Strangelv | tbottu, what is C++ |
tbottu | Strangelv: Sorry, I've no idea what 'C++' is. |
Strangelv | hmm |
Strangelv | looks like the bot has made itself the topic again |
kb9vqf | Darned attention grabber |
kb9vqf | :-P |
kb9vqf | Back to styles |
kb9vqf | The only pixmaps are for icons |
kb9vqf | Those are in either kdelibs or kdebase |
kb9vqf | I forget which |
Strangelv | root@Doomsday:/home/strangelv# locate .svgz | grep -i kde | grep -v kde4 | grep -v icons |
*Strangelv gets a short list of wallpapers | |
kb9vqf | .png |
kb9vqf | not .svgz |
kb9vqf | Most pixmaps in Trinity are .png |
kb9vqf | tbottu, what is C++ |
tbottu | kb9vqf: Maybe C++ is wonderful, surpassed only by C |
kb9vqf | :) |
kb9vqf | Much better |
*Strangelv gets a haystack | |
Strangelv | finding no pngs in kdebase |
Strangelv | but thath's with locate, and it could have been moved somewhere completely different |
kb9vqf | kdelibs maybe |
*kb9vqf is obviously not sure | |
Strangelv | I can't fault you for having trouble remembering given how much trouble I have with memory |
kb9vqf | And Trinity is massive ;-) |
*kb9vqf needs to get some sleep | |

Strangelv | I had academic and research goals, but the fell by the side in 1997 to work on The Project That Will Make Us All Rich that blew up in our faces in January 1998 |
TokRa | the winter version of our coprorate site |
*Strangelv judges by teh alphabet that it's probably not Det Moroz | |
TokRa | It is Дед Мород (Ded Moroz) |
TokRa | Ded (spelled like "dad") means old man / grandfather |
Strangelv | Aokay, I got the transliteration wrong... |
Strangelv | noted |
TokRa | Moroz means "the cold" |
*Strangelv may also be correctly remembering an incorrect transliteration | |
Strangelv | "Father frost |
TokRa | The "Dead Moroz" spelling might be encountered too, by kidding :P |
TokRa | Indeed |
Strangelv | Whom I believe is supposed to have white gloves with three fingers on each hand, and underneath the red coat iz wearing pure while. also if that's Ded Moroz, where's the ice maiden? |
TokRa | mhm? |
Strangelv | I'sn't Ded Moroz supposed to have a female counterpart, teh ice maiden? |
TokRa | yes, she's called Снегурочка (Snegurochka) |
TokRa | According to the slavic (especially russian) folklore |
TokRa | She still has fingers on each hand :) |
TokRa | She still has 5 fingers on each hand :) |
Strangelv | "So what are you working on for TDE? |
*Strangelv in trying to wokr out what artwokr needs to be done when | |
*field_it has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Strangelv | Hello |
TokRa | Strangelv: I am not working now. Earlier, I hosted the Trinity's ISO images on my servers: http://trinity.lv |
TokRa | Then, after Timothy had got help from University of Idaho, I continued to host them on my own, just to keep the mirroring idea |
Strangelv | "Thank you |

*TokRa has contacted kb9vqf and offered help | |
*TokRa acually is mentioned at http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/contributors/ | |
TokRa | :P |

TokRa | My global policy is to give, not only to get |

toxic_devil | чего??? |
kb9vqf | So Trinity looks more and more important with each Ubuntu release ;-) |
toxic_devil | о.о |
toxic_devil | TokRa: сноси ubuntu))) |
TokRa | kb9vqf: indeed |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: I don't know if its been discussed before. maybe register trinityde.org and setup an modern looking website |
MutantTurkey | our current website (while i do like simplicity) just reminds people that 3.5 is outdated |
kb9vqf | I wouldn't mind help with the website :) |
kb9vqf | Any takers? |
MutantTurkey | I will help you |
*TokRa has registered trinity.lv about a year ago | |
kb9vqf | What would be nice is to |
MutantTurkey | we'd need a .org i think |
kb9vqf | fix up the graphical style (CSS?) |
kb9vqf | Something to get rid of the 1990s HTML look |
kb9vqf | While retaining the content |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: have you seen the archlinux website? very simple and still fast and modern |
kb9vqf | Looks noce to me |
kb9vqf | nice thatis |
MutantTurkey | yes I think so |
MutantTurkey | they've nicely intergrated their BBS, their bug tracker, User repos (all different backends and engines) into one website |
kb9vqf | If I give you access to the source HTML could you convert the website to a nicer layout? |
kb9vqf | There is a beta site floating around that you can use as a test bed |
kb9vqf | Domain names are $20/yr |
kb9vqf | I wouldn't mind registering trinityde.org |
kb9vqf | But we need a nicer looking website first :) |
*kb9vqf does not "do" CSS, etc. | |
kb9vqf | So I would need some help there |
MutantTurkey | i don't go css either |
MutantTurkey | i do simple. i do fast. i do modern |
kb9vqf | OK |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: domains are 10 a year |
kb9vqf | Where? |
MutantTurkey | networksolutions.net |
kb9vqf | Thanks :) |
*kb9vqf was getting ripped off | |
MutantTurkey | at least i recall. havent dont it in a while |
kb9vqf | Well, it looks like $10 may be an introductory price |
kb9vqf | Personally I haven't found long-term less than $20 or so |
MutantTurkey | oh okay |
kb9vqf | It's a nit, $10 isn't very much :) |
kb9vqf | Fixing the website is more important |
MutantTurkey | agreed. |
MutantTurkey | but $10 and a new website would be great |
kb9vqf | I don't like allowing FTP access....I wonder if rsync would work? |
kb9vqf | For you to get access to the beta hosting directory that is |
MutantTurkey | Dont give me ftp access |
kb9vqf | Don't worry, I won't :) |
*kb9vqf hates FTP | |
MutantTurkey | just tar up the website and send it over |
*field_it1 has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | OK, hang on |
MutantTurkey | since i've only been around here for a few days i wouldn't trust myself either :p |
kb9vqf | Obviously I can't send the Wiki and such, but I'll send over the main static page |
kb9vqf | pages, rather |
MutantTurkey | also, we need to either 1) get rid of the wiki or 2) make it useful. |
MutantTurkey | alot of the stuff there could be on the regular site |
kb9vqf | It's useful |
MutantTurkey | alright, well expanding it is definitely a good idea (in the future) |
kb9vqf | It's faster for me to work on the Wiki for most of the stuff there |
kb9vqf | Yes :) |
MutantTurkey | definitely |
kb9vqf | The main pages should be for slowly changing content |
kb9vqf | Like they are now |
MutantTurkey | well actally they don't need to be. |
MutantTurkey | if you are having news updates and such |
*kb9vqf doesn't have time for news updates :) | |
MutantTurkey | :| |
kb9vqf | Of course if someone wants to do that for the project I don't mind |
MutantTurkey | News updates for releases and versions of programs, nothing else |
kb9vqf | Oh, OK |
kb9vqf | That's fine |
MutantTurkey | yeah |
MutantTurkey | just so people know that we are active |
kb9vqf | A daily blog would be of of the question ;-) |
MutantTurkey | agreed. |
kb9vqf | Also, the documentation pages are auto-generated, so they can't easily be changed |
kb9vqf | Actually a lot of the pages are auto-generated |
MutantTurkey | which ones? |
kb9vqf | docs, patches, mailing lists |
MutantTurkey | that is all fine |
MutantTurkey | they are all frames right? |
kb9vqf | The Wiki and bugtracker are standalone ATM |
kb9vqf | Yes |
MutantTurkey | okay thats easy then |
kb9vqf | RFEs are database driven |
MutantTurkey | do you fancy how this looks? |
kb9vqf | I'd like it clean and light :) |
kb9vqf | Beyond that you can try whatever you want |
MutantTurkey | http://cat-v.org/ |
MutantTurkey | clean light? |
MutantTurkey | also suckless.org |
*kb9vqf doesn't like orange | |
kb9vqf | :) |
MutantTurkey | that is the simple werc web framework. |
MutantTurkey | the colors are all easy to change. |
kb9vqf | Hmm' |
kb9vqf | Maybe a bit hard to navigate? |
MutantTurkey | I am just trying to think of ideas |
kb9vqf | I like the Arch homepage better |
kb9vqf | Just with different colors maybe |
MutantTurkey | http://suckless.org is really easy to navigate |
MutantTurkey | archlinux is a good website. i will ask if they mind |
kb9vqf | Well, the only thing I would ask is if the links could be on the side of the pag |
kb9vqf | page |
kb9vqf | I have widescreen monitors and that way the links aren't taking up precious vertical spcae |
kb9vqf | space |
MutantTurkey | well we differ there |
*kb9vqf is not sure how many others have widescreen | |
MutantTurkey | there was some discussion of why horizontal are better |
MutantTurkey | that is why suckless.org changed theirs. let me find the ML |
kb9vqf | For example though I'm currently browsing the API, I have the main navigation tabs on the left and the Doxygen tabs on the top |
kb9vqf | Nice and easy, and I can view most of the class functions at once |
MutantTurkey | if i can recall. horizontal navigation is better because it takes up less total space |
kb9vqf | Hmmm |
MutantTurkey | not to mention it scales easily for different size monitors |
kb9vqf | I don't suppose it is easily switched either |
MutantTurkey | not sure. |
kb9vqf | Between vertical and horizontal |
kb9vqf | Well, can you come up with a proof of concept to run by me and then the mailing list? |
kb9vqf | That might be best |
kb9vqf | Impress me :) |
MutantTurkey | I'll be honest, I haven't done anything in a very long time with web development |
MutantTurkey | still have a few tricks up my sleeve :P |
kb9vqf | What if we had the primary navigation on the top |
kb9vqf | And the secondary navigation on the side? |
kb9vqf | Most users won't need secondary navigation |
MutantTurkey | i think we need to just look at different websites we like. thats how i always do it |
kb9vqf | Arch is really quite nice |
kb9vqf | :) |
kb9vqf | I don't like the gray though |
MutantTurkey | again, alot of people use their layout |
MutantTurkey | http://www.xyne.archlinux.ca/ |
kb9vqf | I'd take the recent updates and change it to the list of sources/distros currently available |
MutantTurkey | yes |
kb9vqf | Also, the gray could be white |
kb9vqf | And the Trinity logo on the top left corner where the arch logo is |
MutantTurkey | well the thing is, this whole website is php driven i assume |
kb9vqf | Light blue mouse over for the top navigation |
kb9vqf | Trinity blue otherwise |
MutantTurkey | they are all feeds. |
kb9vqf | Hmm |
kb9vqf | I see |
MutantTurkey | Recent updates is an rss feed. News is an rss feed. Then there are minor links on the bottom right and major ones on the top |
kb9vqf | I have PHP and MySQL |
MutantTurkey | I know nothing of PHP to be honest. |
kb9vqf | I wouldn't be opposed to RSS ATM |
kb9vqf | Well, maybe I'll look into it |
MutantTurkey | you can checkout their website on the svn |
kb9vqf | Is the Arch site open source? |
MutantTurkey | lemmie link you |
kb9vqf | One step ahead of me I see :) |
kb9vqf | We also need some nice screenshots of TDE |
MutantTurkey | yes |
kb9vqf | On various platforms |
MutantTurkey | because i have no fucking idea what it looks like |
MutantTurkey | or how the interface is |
MutantTurkey | I am pretty much doing this all blindly until i get the packages running |
kb9vqf | http://apt.pearsoncomputing.net/cdimages/ |
MutantTurkey | thanks :) |
kb9vqf | Those are with Ubuntu |
*kb9vqf likes the Enterprise version | |
MutantTurkey | also i'd suggest some like, suggested requirements for a PC. so people will know how it runs on theirs before installing |
samelian | MutantTurkey: if you need help for php, I know it pretty well |
MutantTurkey | samelian: wonderful |
toxic_devil | Yahooo!!! We paid to three))) |
MutantTurkey | http://projects.archlinux.org/archweb.git/ |
samelian | also, some jquery and css |
kb9vqf | OK, where should I send the html tarball? |
MutantTurkey | setup a new subdomain if its no trouble |
kb9vqf | OK |
MutantTurkey | like trinity-testing.pearsoncomputing.net |
*kb9vqf doesn't like it publically available | |
MutantTurkey | oh. |
MutantTurkey | nevermind |
kb9vqf | I have trinity-beta already |
MutantTurkey | okay great |
kb9vqf | It's OK, I can make it available for a few minutes ;-) |
kb9vqf | While you download it |
MutantTurkey | okay just send me a link |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: enterprise vs desktop? |
kb9vqf | Hang on, still trying to exclude the dynamic content |
kb9vqf | Desktop version is the old Ubuntu kiddie interface |
MutantTurkey | dude, heres the thing. with your screen shots. GET damn thumbnails |
kb9vqf | Hehe |
MutantTurkey | so it loads faster |
kb9vqf | I know |
kb9vqf | The Website has been suffering badly |
MutantTurkey | due to what? |
kb9vqf | Lack of time mostly |
kb9vqf | What you see there was thrown up as fast as posssible |
MutantTurkey | yeah |
MutantTurkey | you gotta remember, the first impression about trinity is the website |
kb9vqf | Yup |
kb9vqf | That's why I welcome your guys' help :) |
MutantTurkey | indeed |
*field_it has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey, samelian: http://trinity-beta.pearsoncomputing.net/123.tar.gz |
kb9vqf | That should be all the non-dynamic content |
samelian | get it |
MutantTurkey | got it great. |
MutantTurkey | holy crap this is alot. |
kb9vqf | ? |
MutantTurkey | why is it going so slow |
MutantTurkey | :[ |
kb9vqf | The website is under peak traffic right now |
MutantTurkey | is that me downloading the iso? |
kb9vqf | You and others maybe |
MutantTurkey | sorry :/ |
kb9vqf | But it should be going to the mirrors :-/ |
kb9vqf | Dunno |
MutantTurkey | here is the trick, BitTorrent. |
kb9vqf | Hehe |
MutantTurkey | we make a torrent with the Iso's instead |
kb9vqf | What's your rate on the ISO? |
MutantTurkey | many distros do that. that way it doesn't bog the servers down |
MutantTurkey | 2.4N |
MutantTurkey | 2.4Mbs |
kb9vqf | That's the mirror |
kb9vqf | Not the main website |
MutantTurkey | oh alright |
MutantTurkey | well that is good |
kb9vqf | This is just traffic to the Wiki, etc. |
kb9vqf | We get a LOT of traffix |
MutantTurkey | that much traffic? |
kb9vqf | Seems like it |
kb9vqf | Enough to swamp my uplink with basic pages (i.e. no files) |
MutantTurkey | do you have a graph of it? or logs of visitors? i know apache may generate it |
kb9vqf | Nope, not ATM |
kb9vqf | I've looked in the logs manually before |
kb9vqf | Lots of visitors |
MutantTurkey | there is a simple apache way to do it. I have a poor memory |
kb9vqf | Yeah, I know |
kb9vqf | No time though right now :) |
MutantTurkey | you very busy? |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | TQt is eating much more time than I would like |
kb9vqf | But I hope that will stop soon |
MutantTurkey | ah, anything specific you are running into? |
kb9vqf | Qt4 %^&@^ |
kb9vqf | Mostly :) |
kb9vqf | Things like Qt4 eating events |
MutantTurkey | ah. |
kb9vqf | That took all day to trace |
kb9vqf | Turns out it does so on purpose |
kb9vqf | :-P |
*kb9vqf really hates some of the Qt4 "design" decisions | |
MutantTurkey | ah |
MutantTurkey | yeah. i dislike qt4 alot |
kb9vqf | On the plus side, through TQt, kdesktop and kicker run quite well |
kb9vqf | Almost pixel perfect :) |
MutantTurkey | nice! |
kb9vqf | kwin too |
kb9vqf | Working on kate/kmultitabbarwidget now |
kb9vqf | There's a screenshot of the desktop floating around, Xu_R has the link |
kb9vqf | So, did you get the tarball yet? |
MutantTurkey | yes |
kb9vqf | OK |
kb9vqf | That will be missing one file I forgot about |
MutantTurkey | I am confused. what file do you first open? |
kb9vqf | main.html |
kb9vqf | Err, wait |
kb9vqf | Let me check |
MutantTurkey | because i see index_main.html but that doesn't have the sidebar fram |
kb9vqf | index.php |
kb9vqf | But I didn't include it accidentally |
kb9vqf | Hang on |
kb9vqf | http://trinity-beta.pearsoncomputing.net/index.php.txt |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: ^^ rename that to index.php |
kb9vqf | Also there is a missing folder named /files |
kb9vqf | And you need to place this in that folder: http://trinity-beta.pearsoncomputing.net/files/index.html |
kb9vqf | http://trinity-beta.pearsoncomputing.net/links_main.php.txt |
kb9vqf | Rename to links_main.php |
kb9vqf | That should be it |
*kb9vqf excluded all PHP files | |
kb9vqf | Did you get the files OK? |
MutantTurkey | okay sorry |
MutantTurkey | had to watch my little sister for a minute |
kb9vqf | That's fine |
kb9vqf | I'm the one that forgot to send three files ;-) |
*Piki has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Piki | hi |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Have at it and when you have something you like, send me a tarball and I'll upload it to the trinity-beta site |
MutantTurkey | Hey Piki |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: okay, why are we using Php? |
kb9vqf | Simple dynamic content |
MutantTurkey | right |
*kb9vqf uses PHP extensively in most of his websites | |
MutantTurkey | alright |
MutantTurkey | and that goes in the main directory |
kb9vqf | Yes, both of the php files go in the main directory |
kb9vqf | index.php is the main page |
MutantTurkey | guess i can't use my regular shttpd server :/ |
MutantTurkey | I'll have to setup lighttpd i guess |
*field_it1 has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | The PHP is used to be able to specify a default frame |
MutantTurkey | yes I got it |
kb9vqf | OK :) |
MutantTurkey | just gotta setup a php-able server |
kb9vqf | Sure |
kb9vqf | Poke me if you have any questions or if you are missing any files :) |
MutantTurkey | right |
kb9vqf | Thanks! |
MutantTurkey | (I'm still attempting to package at the same time haha |
MutantTurkey | yep it's all good :p |
MutantTurkey | I have nothing to do all day, might as well get something accompished |

Piki | virtualbox seems to work well, pretty close to the speed of my real hardware, haven't tried vmware or anything else |
MutantTurkey | i haven't tried vbox |
Piki | MutantTurkey: it works great, unfortunately the open source edition doesn't to USB, but the non-OSE is free for personal use. if it's not in your distro's repos, though, you'll need to have the kernel source present for vbox to compile the kernel module |
MutantTurkey | D: |
MutantTurkey | f that. |
MutantTurkey | qemu works for now |
Piki | you don't need to compile the kernel, just as long as you install the kernel source package from your distro |
Piki | or the kernel headers should work as well |
MutantTurkey | i have a custom kernel with static modules D: so |
MutantTurkey | i'd have to recompile |
Piki | you don't ave the headers or the source? |
MutantTurkey | I do |
MutantTurkey | I just dont have time to recompile |
Piki | you don't have to, as long as you kept them |
MutantTurkey | oh really? |
Piki | the vbox installer just needs them to compile the module |
MutantTurkey | ah excellent |
Piki | it needs them so it can compile the module for your particular setup |
Piki | i've never successfully compiled a kernel |
MutantTurkey | why not? |
Piki | but i've installed vbox |
Piki | MutantTurkey: something always seems to go wrong somewhere. even if it compiles, it won't boot, even if i run mkinitrd to get my hard disk drivers |
MutantTurkey | ah :p |
Piki | i do have it on my todo list for whenever i have the time to actually look into it |
MutantTurkey | okay now i get the good old 403 forbidden crap. |
MutantTurkey | >:| dumb php backend fcgi being dumb damnit. |
TokRa | 403 - check the file permissions |
MutantTurkey | nevermind fixed it up. |
MutantTurkey | It's actually an issue with my lighttpd config |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: i just got rid of the pointless php code since i couldn't get it working, if we need something we can always add it later |
kb9vqf | I suppose |
kb9vqf | Make it static and I'll throw the PHP back in |
kb9vqf | just keep the php file extension if you can :) |
MutantTurkey | :o |
MutantTurkey | sawwy i renamed it all |
kb9vqf | Oh OK |
MutantTurkey | lemmie just give this a go, all we really need it a simple workup nothing real. |
kb9vqf | Well I'll rename it back with sed when I get it ;-) |
kb9vqf | Sure |
*kb9vqf understands | |
MutantTurkey | what about how xfce website looks? http://www.xfce.org/ |
*kb9vqf likes the Arch one better | |
MutantTurkey | I think then we should just scratch the current website instead of trying to freshen it up. |
MutantTurkey | All the text we will be able to basically copy and paste, maybe reorginise or rewrite some stuff. |
*Piki has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | Sure |
kb9vqf | For now just copy/paste it |
kb9vqf | The text that is |
MutantTurkey | Alright. some stuff i think is a obvious change. such as "Welcome to Pearson Computing's fork of KDE3.5, codename Trinity!" to "Trinity Desktop Environment" |
kb9vqf | Well yes ;-) |
kb9vqf | We need to put the KDE3.5 fork info somewhere |
kb9vqf | Maybe under "History"? |
MutantTurkey | yes. |
MutantTurkey | or even in the first paragraph |
kb9vqf | Sure |
MutantTurkey | but we need to be clear we are NOT KDE. so seperating them is a good idea. |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | Hence the fork mention up front |
MutantTurkey | Trinity Desktop Environment: Trinity DE keeps the KDE3.5 computing style alive! It has polished off the rough edges that were present as of KDE 3.5.10. Along the way, new useful features will be added to keep the environment up-to-date. |
MutantTurkey | that would be better |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | Although |
kb9vqf | As the environment matures, new useful features will be added to keep the environment up-to-date. |
kb9vqf | might be better |
MutantTurkey | yes |
kb9vqf | From a grammatical perspective |
kb9vqf | As the environment matures, new useful features will be added to keep it up-to-date. |
kb9vqf | :) |
MutantTurkey | we want to say that 1) we have made huge strides already 2) we are working further to make it even better |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | Probably the release notes should be more prominent |
kb9vqf | http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/wiki/bin/view/Documentation/Releases_3_5_12 |
MutantTurkey | defintitely |
MutantTurkey | even that could be the front page |
MutantTurkey | NEW AND IMPROVED! Trinity 3.5.12 is out! HERE ARE THE GREAT FEATURES: blah blah blah |
MutantTurkey | like kde.org and xfce.org are showing you the latest and greatest! |
kb9vqf | A section of it anyway |
kb9vqf | The first news article? |
MutantTurkey | yeah |
kb9vqf | Works for me |
MutantTurkey | or something along the lines |
kb9vqf | How will the news be managed? |
kb9vqf | Database? |
kb9vqf | RSS? |
MutantTurkey | hmmm |
kb9vqf | Flat text? |
MutantTurkey | rss |
MutantTurkey | but not yet |
kb9vqf | OK |
MutantTurkey | I prefer flat file everything tbh |
kb9vqf | Me too |
MutantTurkey | I am am real minimalist |
kb9vqf | Well, up to a point |
kb9vqf | Me that is |
kb9vqf | Over time I may want to throw fast changing stuff into a database |
kb9vqf | But I can handle that here |
MutantTurkey | well things that should be in a DB or RSS are like package releases |
MutantTurkey | which are often |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | Perfect example |
MutantTurkey | well archlinux even has the setup like that already |
kb9vqf | Makes it easy then :) |
MutantTurkey | nice, i got tqtinterface-svn packaged |
MutantTurkey | http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=46091 |
samelian | actually is not very good ideea |
samelian | to make pure static html files |
samelian | you must have something like header.php, footer.php |
samelian | then just include it in index.php, about.php, etc |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: samelian is correct ^^^ |
kb9vqf | ;-) |
kb9vqf | I would get PHP running if I were you |
kb9vqf | I can help with that if you need |
MutantTurkey | okay sorry I got distracted packaging |
kb9vqf | That's fine |
MutantTurkey | 2 packages down now. |
kb9vqf | Great! :-) |
kb9vqf | Maybe 3.5.13 will have Ark support |
MutantTurkey | Ark? |
samelian | pardus, right? |
kb9vqf | Arch, sorry ;- |
MutantTurkey | why wouldn't it? I mean at this rate it could |
MutantTurkey | will 3.5.13 be using Cmake? i mean svn based packages are quite different than tarball ones but it shouldn't be to hard to convert them all. |
kb9vqf | Right :) |
kb9vqf | If samelian finishes it then yes |
*kb9vqf prods samelian ;-) | |
samelian | depends what meaning Trinity for you :) |
samelian | at this moment, kdelibs and kdebase are usable |
MutantTurkey | what else is needed? |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: so finally trying to get php working, I've extracted your dir in my /var/www/ but the permissions are messed up. who should own them? |
kb9vqf | www-data |
kb9vqf | Well, under Ubuntu anyway |
kb9vqf | What distro did you set up for Apache? |
MutantTurkey | apache? I use lighttpd |
kb9vqf | Oh, OK |
MutantTurkey | andi only run archlinux :p |
kb9vqf | I may not be much help then |
kb9vqf | Usually nobody or www-data owns the web documents |
MutantTurkey | have debian on server box that is currently unusuable |
kb9vqf | Just don't make it root and you should be OK ;-) |
MutantTurkey | i get the 403 forbidden error on any file i try and access |
kb9vqf | Are the php files executable? |
kb9vqf | They need to be +x |
TokRa | there is no need to |
MutantTurkey | ah |
kb9vqf | ? |
MutantTurkey | yeah you've chmod +x everything actually |
kb9vqf | Hmmm |
MutantTurkey | http://96.245.17.6/ |
MutantTurkey | hopefully that works. |
TokRa | chmod -R a+rx /var/www |
MutantTurkey | TokRa: thanka! |
kb9vqf | Looks like the PHP interpreter is not running |
MutantTurkey | thanks! |
TokRa | php files are offered to downoad, they are not being handled |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: yeah hold up i have to do that now. |
MutantTurkey | I first had to sort out the permissions error |
MutantTurkey | now i can setup fcgi |
TokRa | the web server is not set up to handle php file properly |
kb9vqf | OK |
MutantTurkey | TokRa: yes. I am going to do that now |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: one reason i love arch, they have wiki article for everything https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Fastcgi_and_lighttpd |
*Piki has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Piki | kb9vqf: does tbottu use tcl scripts for explaining stuff? |
kb9vqf | Not sure |
kb9vqf | I know it supports the infobot protocol |
kb9vqf | But I think it has an internal implementation of some sort |
Piki | if it does, those might be useful for the ark bot |
kb9vqf | Piki: Eggdrop might work for you |
Piki | kb9vqf: it's already working, it just doesn't do much without external scripts |
MutantTurkey | excellent! |
MutantTurkey | http://192.168.1.4/index.php |
TokRa | nice :) |
kb9vqf | Looks familiar |
kb9vqf | :) |
MutantTurkey | sorry. that was local |
MutantTurkey | http://96.245.17.6/ should work now. |
Xu_R_ | nice MutantTurkey :) |
TokRa | Please, add more default filenames to DocumentRoot |
MutantTurkey | good! |
Piki | MutantTurkey: lol, i was wandering about that, 192.168.*.* is generally reserved for local networks |
*Xu_R_ is eating homemade ramen :D | |
MutantTurkey | yes. a bit tired aha |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R_: delicious! i love ramen. |
Xu_R_ | whoo! :D |
Piki | ramen, the cheap yet tasty food ;-) |
Xu_R_ | Piki: mine is NOT cheap. I made it myself. |
MutantTurkey | Piki: part of my main diet |
MutantTurkey | that, canned chili and toast and such |
Xu_R_ | kb9vqf: what's with the tbottu? |
Xu_R_ | bot? |
kb9vqf | Yup |
Xu_R_ | what is it running? |
kb9vqf | tbottu, what is tbottu |
tbottu | kb9vqf: I have heard that tbottu is your benevolent host and logging droid, capable of giving helpful misinformation, bug status messages, and translations via Yahoo |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: mozbot |
Xu_R_ | LOL |
Xu_R_ | o. |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: another idea, is to keep the webpage in an svn repo so you can commit changes. |
Xu_R_ | I'm using supybot |
MutantTurkey | supybot is great |
Xu_R_ | I can't get the meetbot to save files, so it's a pain in the ass when I can't #endmeeting |
Piki | ramen, pizza, spaghetti, and mac'n'cheese, wish i had some of my grandmother's recipes though, she wasn't a gourmet chef, but she definitely was much better! |
Xu_R_ | MutantTurkey: ya :D |
Piki | wow, i need practice my typing speed lol |
*[lindaemon] has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Xu_R_ | hehe, there's my bot there :D |
MutantTurkey | Piki: meh. i gave up on that shit a long time ago |
Xu_R_ | of course, I have no idea if it works |
MutantTurkey | I never had good typing skills and i don't even type correctly :o |
Xu_R_ | !ping MutantTurkey |
[lindaemon] | pong |
Xu_R_ | yup, it works. :P |
MutantTurkey | :D |
Xu_R_ | yes, MutantTurkey, I shall play ping pong on your head XD |
MutantTurkey | like my right hand always rests over by the l key and i use it a ton for backspace and such |
Piki | MutantTurkey: well as a computer geek, i'll be expected to type fast when i get a job ;-) |
MutantTurkey | i use my left hand to write evertything as far as the yhu keys |
MutantTurkey | i could try and relearn how to type but meh |
Piki | i do have a job, but hoping to get a better one soon |
Xu_R_ | !part #trinity-desktop EWWWW, tbottu is here |
*[lindaemon] has left #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | tbottu, what is lindaemon |
tbottu | kb9vqf: well, duh. lindaemon is a nasty competitor bot, rarely heard since I banished it from the solar system |
Xu_R_ | LOL |
Piki | ;-) |
Xu_R_ | I see you defined my bot :P |
MutantTurkey | http://96.245.17.6/ some simple changes so far |
Xu_R_ | tbottu, what is kb9vqf |
tbottu | Xu_R_: Sorry, I've no idea what 'kb9vqf' is. |
Xu_R_ | kb9vqf: ^ nice to know you're alien XD |
kb9vqf | And I like to keep it that way for now :) |
Xu_R_ | lol |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: yeah you should get a easier to remember nick :p |
Xu_R_ | kb9vqf: samelian: I'm moving stuff off of build.opensuse.org to build.lincomlinux.org, because I'm having major trouble with their current server state. So if you want to see Trinity RPM stuff there, you'll have to register at build.lincomlinux.org (which is disabled atm, I'm fixing it) |
kb9vqf | Ah, well, I dunno |
samelian | Xu_R_: very well |
kb9vqf | Heh |
kb9vqf | Do I sense another QuickBuild? |
kb9vqf | ;-) |
Xu_R_ | kb9vqf: It runs the openSUSE Build Service. Seriously, it can build debs too and create repositories for them as well :P |
Xu_R_ | kb9vqf: and maybe. :P |
kb9vqf | I know, but it's a local instance because the main instance drove you nuts once too often |
kb9vqf | That's how it's the same ;-) |
Xu_R_ | kb9vqf: ... OH LOL yes yes I see :) |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: one of your problems is that the page is just really cluttured. |
kb9vqf | Yup |
MutantTurkey | I am trying to cutdown on the amount of text |
kb9vqf | Lots of info |
kb9vqf | Should be moved to other pages IMO |
MutantTurkey | which should go on sub pages |
MutantTurkey | yes |
MutantTurkey | http://96.245.17.6/ |
MutantTurkey | cleaning it up a bit |
Xu_R_ | MutantTurkey: Maybe switch to a CMS like Drupal? :D |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R_: well we are talking about that |
MutantTurkey | so any ideas are welcome |
MutantTurkey | right now i am just trying to clean things up in the mean time. |
Piki | yes, drupal works great, a bit of getting used to, but easy and makes a lot of sense once you do |
MutantTurkey | Piki: how fast/slow/bloated/easy to setup is it? |
Xu_R_ | MutantTurkey: psh, you always know i'm here to help. or annoy kb9vqf/samelian xD |
MutantTurkey | xD |
Xu_R_ | I was the one who recommended Piki use Drupal |
Xu_R_ | I use it myself - very customizable |
Piki | MutantTurkey: fast, not bloated, lots of modules and themes on their site, and the administration page organizes and explains all the setup/admin stuff |
MutantTurkey | we'd want something pretty minimal I'd assume |
Piki | MutantTurkey: check Xu_R_'s lincomlinux site and the arklinux.org site i'm webmastering |
Xu_R_ | MutantTurkey: then keep to the minimal with drupal :) |
MutantTurkey | one thing great about the current website is that it works with, mobile phones, old computers, tiny screens, cli browsers. etc. |
Xu_R_ | MutantTurkey: there's a module for that xD |
MutantTurkey | Ark linux still exists? |
Xu_R_ | well, i'm not here to advertise with drupal for now |
Piki | MutantTurkey: yes, it's been in existance |
Xu_R_ | I'm here to grapple with TQtinterface |
MutantTurkey | Piki: are they tryng to relaunch/ |
Piki | we've been really struggling with kde4 |
Piki | MutantTurkey: no, they are trying to release |
Piki | they've been launched |
MutantTurkey | they still havent released? |
Xu_R_ | samelina: since I'm still migrating, we can still work on build.o.o for the time being |
Xu_R_ | LOL oops, samelina. s/samelina/samelian |
samelian | hehe |
Piki | yes, our head dev wanted to replace HAL, but couldn't force KDE4 to use it, and he's working on a new init system, quite fast and stable, still needs a couple things though, like support for a boot splash |
MutantTurkey | Piki: why not get them to use trinity? |
Xu_R_ | https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=tqtinterface&project=home%3Abravoall1552%3Atrinity - the x86_64 builds of SUSE 11.3 and Factory are failing strangely. |
samelian | using drupal for such simple website is a big everhead |
MutantTurkey | that would sure help us out a hella lot |
samelian | overhead |
MutantTurkey | samelian: yeah? |
Piki | MutantTurkey: we are, we'll be releasing both KDE4 and TDE |
MutantTurkey | nice. |
MutantTurkey | excellent |
Piki | MutantTurkey: and that's not the only problem, we are switching to RPM5, and need to find a decent Qt frontend to zypper, because zypper was the easiest to port to RPM5 |
MutantTurkey | PackageKit? |
Piki | MutantTurkey: any unnecessary dependencies? i seem to remember something about devkit or something that our head dev didn't want to include |
MutantTurkey | not sure |
MutantTurkey | check it out |
MutantTurkey | haven't used it myself |
*K`zan has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: what about just using MediaWiki and run a wiki for a website? quite a few projects do that |
kb9vqf | I always associate those with poorly designed/lazy projects |
MutantTurkey | okay |
MutantTurkey | Just throwing it out there |
kb9vqf | Seems I can never find what I want if I see a Wiki first thing |
kb9vqf | Just my experience |
MutantTurkey | agreed. |
samelian | my problem with actual wiki is that i cannot find anything :) |
Xu_R_ | lol samelian |
MutantTurkey | unless it is Archlinux wiki, which is super amazing xD |
Piki | kb9vqf: because people don't know how to organize the site, though i still like mediawiki as the wiki |
kb9vqf | Yeah, I've heard that quite a bit now |
kb9vqf | Can't do anything about it unless there is an automated conversion somewhere, OR someone wants to waste lots of time moving pages over |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: i have alot of time |
kb9vqf | Website first ;-) |
kb9vqf | Then Wiki |
samelian | MutantTurkey: haha |
MutantTurkey | first of all, we need to deceide about the website! |
samelian | so, we must to find something to do for you :) |
Piki | hmm, packagekit lists polkit as a dep, which lists no contributors or commiters, and low activity |
Piki | on their GSoC page |
MutantTurkey | what? polkit is fine |
Xu_R_ | Piki: psh. polkit is fine |
samelian | MutantTurkey: if you want, I can mentoring you how to port trinity to cmake |
Xu_R_ | and devicekit is also depreciated |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R_: what are we using no? |
Xu_R_ | into udev-extras, udisks, and upower, now part of the base linux system |
MutantTurkey | i have honestly lost track since the whole hal changeover |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R_: right. |
Xu_R_ | MutantTurkey: we're still stuck with hal |
MutantTurkey | you are? |
MutantTurkey | i don't even have it installed. |
Xu_R_ | but we're migrating straight to udev-extras, udisks, adn upower |
Xu_R_ | MutantTurkey: Really? that's strange. |
MutantTurkey | who is we? Archlinux has already migrated |
Xu_R_ | I meant Trinity. |
kb9vqf | You have KDE3 on udev?? |
Piki | polkit seems to be a hardware abstractor or something, which we plan to replace anyway |
MutantTurkey | oh sorry |
Xu_R_ | Trinity still uses HAL, MutantTurkey... |
MutantTurkey | i was so confused. |
MutantTurkey | thought i was in my ubuntu channel xD |
Xu_R_ | Piki: no. polkit isn't such a thing if you don't want it to be one. |
*Xu_R_ facepalms MutantTurkey | |
Piki | Xu_R_: that's what it seems to be describing on the page |
Piki | that and networking |
Piki | which we already have |
Xu_R_ | Piki: Only if you make it use it! |
Xu_R_ | MutantTurkey: I just figured out all that hal depreciation stuff like a week ago, don't worry :P |
Piki | Xu_R_: then what's the point of requiring polkit in packagekit? |
Xu_R_ | To install packages. |
Piki | but that's zypper/rpm |
Xu_R_ | Polkit is like a fine access-control su and sudo |
Piki | we can just use ark's PAM modules |
Piki | which allows the default user to install software anyway |
Piki | anf if the user doesn't want that, kdesu and kdesudo |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R_: hahah |
samelian | Piki: this is not a potential security hole? |
Piki | samelian: no, not like the user can run a root konsole to auto-execute a command or soemthingl like that, there's a description on the wiki |
Piki | http://wiki.arklinux.org/Ark_Security_System |
Piki | i've been using ark since february 2007, never had any kind of viruses, spyware, hack attempts, or other security problems |
Piki | besides, i don't really like the sudo way of doing things, all i need to do is type my own normal user password, and destroy the system, which the PAM modules don't allow |
Piki | and i can assign certain things on a per-user basis, so nobody sees my root password to get unlimited rights, they just get what they absolutely need |
samelian | do not forget about privilege escalation exploits |
Piki | i thought the root escalation thing was fixed? |
Xu_R_ | Piki: the way Polkit does it, however, is when the application calls polkit to auth (via dbus), it runs the application as a polkit daemon user, which tunnels the application to root via a securely locked down env, if I recall correctly (which rarely happens) |
Piki | Xu_R_: if you can sanitize dbus to get bero to accept it |
Xu_R_ | Piki: oh, there's another one right now that is still being investingated. Nice discussion on lfs-dev about it. |
Xu_R_ | *investigated |
Xu_R_ | I can't spell for my life today |
Xu_R_ | no wonder my english teacher stared at me .-. |
Piki | besides, we already have our PAM modules |
Piki | which do the same thing, without dbus |
Piki | Xu_R_: well our PAM modules can work regardless of if the exploit is fixed, and if it does get fixed, well all the better because it doesn't compromise security either way |
Piki | and if the exploit is there, there's nothing our PAM modules can do about it, because it isn't the kernel or bash or... |
MutantTurkey | okay |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: http://96.245.17.6/ I've sort of orginized it with headers. |
Piki | what Ark needs is a GUI tool for zypper that doesn't drag in any extra deps or luggage we don't need, and we can just use PAM |
MutantTurkey | Piki: then write one yourself |
MutantTurkey | I mean it is Ark linux, it should have and Ark frontend :p |
MutantTurkey | what about Shaman? |
MutantTurkey | oh wiat. |
MutantTurkey | thats for pacman not zypper :/ |
*aledec has joined #trinity-desktop | |
*aledec has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Piki | MutantTurkey: yet i doubt most distros have their own |
MutantTurkey | dude package kit. i am telling you |
MutantTurkey | http://PackageKit.org/pk-users.html |
Piki | and i don't know how to code, our only coder is always overwhelmed by work, and has to fix our dependency mess |
MutantTurkey | Moblin, fedora, foresight, kubuntu opensuse all use it |
Piki | MutantTurkey: we don't want polkit |
MutantTurkey | Piki: YOU ONLY HAVE ONE DEVELOPER? |
Piki | and we don't like fedora, ubuntu, and we only use opensuse's zypper because it's the only option |
MutantTurkey | why is that (jw)? |
Piki | MutantTurkey: well, nobody wants to be seen as a nooby, so they all stay away from us |
Piki | MutantTurkey: they just don't work |
Piki | on any of our systems |
MutantTurkey | pacman ;D |
MutantTurkey | pacman? |
MutantTurkey | what is the goal of Ark Linux? |
Piki | MutantTurkey: all of our packages are rpm, we don't have the man power to care to switch, and we want to release |
MutantTurkey | oh |
MutantTurkey | how large is the total team? |
Piki | MutantTurkey: be easy enough for the unexperienced, flexible for long-time users, and remain "technically sane", which means excluding polkit and ditching udev/hal asap |
MutantTurkey | Piki: no reason to ditch udev. |
MutantTurkey | just hal |
Piki | MutantTurkey: one packager/dev, two webmasters , three site admins (including the two webmaster), and a site moderator |
Piki | MutantTurkey: udev seems to operate a bit weird on most of our systems |
MutantTurkey | so basically this whole project is driven by one man? |
Piki | MutantTurkey: yes. we used to have more, but real life took over |
MutantTurkey | basically :/ |
MutantTurkey | what is Ark based on top of? |
samelian | MutantTurkey: do not wonder to much, trinity itself have only two developers :) |
Piki | and i'm about to join in on packaging once i get my system setup for TDE |
Piki | MutantTurkey: based on top of? |
MutantTurkey | samelian: :) I'll be helping about soon probably, if kb9vqf |
MutantTurkey | if kb9vqf lets me ;) |
MutantTurkey | Piki: nevermind |
kb9vqf | Of course I'll let you ;-) |
samelian | MutantTurkey: you have C++ background? |
MutantTurkey | samelian: :o no. |
samelian | i see |
MutantTurkey | I am a pure C coder. though I am sure i can learn |
MutantTurkey | i have absolutely no background in anything, no formal training, no job in real life, nothing. |
samelian | if you don't want to bother with Qt/C++, you can help us with cmake |
MutantTurkey | I can do both. |
MutantTurkey | first i would like to get you modernized with a website and packages for archlinux. |
Xu_R_ | I'm learning C++ right now :D (of course, knowledge = limited right now) |
MutantTurkey | i also would definitely help out with cmake |
Xu_R_ | I think I'll stick with packaging right now, and then maybe take a look at the code :) |
MutantTurkey | i though C++ is not so different than C? I mean syntax may be different and its all object oriented but anything else? |
samelian | it's enough, I think |
samelian | actually the problem is learning qt, not c++ itself |
kb9vqf | Website/CMake can be done while you learn Qt/C++ |
kb9vqf | So you are still of use to the project for sure |
*kb9vqf is not about to turn down extra help ;-) | |
MutantTurkey | i also hear Qt is quite nice to develop on |
MutantTurkey | at least much saner than GTK. |
kb9vqf | Oh yes! |
Piki | if anybody programming in Qt wants to write a graphical frontend to zypper that is just the interface and just passes everything to zypper, using easy-to-understand code and a simple and easy interface, feel free to jump on our mailing list/forum and live support ;-) |
MutantTurkey | I have done quite a bit with GTK and such so I am familiar with learning APIS and shit |
Piki | anyway, must go to work |
MutantTurkey | Piki: i could do that maybe |
MutantTurkey | Piki: as LONG as zypper has a library interface |
MutantTurkey | writing frontend wrappers sucks ass. |
samelian | however, trinity have a lot areas to learn |
kb9vqf | Just be careful not to spread yourself too thin |
Piki | MutantTurkey: it does have a library (libzypp), and a command line util (zypper) to use it |
*kb9vqf knows from experience | |
samelian | for example, kcm (kcontrol) modules, kioslaves, etc |
MutantTurkey | Piki: nice |
MutantTurkey | we could maybe switch shaman to use zypper |
MutantTurkey | Shaman is a pacman for KDE enviroment frontend |
samelian | kb9vqf: seems that glib interface for upower is not so nice as I expected |
Piki | MutantTurkey: we don't want it to have any weird deps on hal/udev/hotplug/etc, just make calls to zypper or use it's lib, which already handles grabbing the stuff from the repos and passing it to rpm |
Piki | anyways, must go, starting to run late |
MutantTurkey | Piki: of course not. |
samelian | I started to check if upower interface can be easy implemented using qt3 dbus |
Piki | bye |
MutantTurkey | night |
kb9vqf | samelian: upower/udev is practically unusable as-is |
kb9vqf | Hence the need for libkpower and friends |
*kb9vqf had guessed that by looking at the API a while back | |
samelian | for sure |
kb9vqf | Linux is not helping us here |
samelian | I will try to implement upower low level interface in pure qt |
kb9vqf | Sure, go ahead |
kb9vqf | Just don't use Qt4 specific things |
kb9vqf | Please |
samelian | not matter, actually |
kb9vqf | Make it work in Qt3 |
kb9vqf | Then TQt can take over |
samelian | I using d-pointer |
samelian | to hide implementation details |
samelian | the API will be the same for qt3/qt4 |
kb9vqf | OK, but if the backend is Qt4 based then I can't switch from HAL |
kb9vqf | We need something working 100% under Qt3 |
kb9vqf | Before a full switch from HAL can be made |
samelian | ATM, i implement qt3, because I want to use with actualy trinity |
kb9vqf | TQt for Qt4 is too far off |
kb9vqf | OK |
kb9vqf | Good :) |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: okay cleaned it up bit. what think you? http://96.245.17.6/ |
kb9vqf | It's a bit better |
samelian | try to use an sans-serif font |
kb9vqf | Organizationally that is |
MutantTurkey | that was the focus |
kb9vqf | It definitely needs style help :) |
samelian | serif fonts are designed for printing, not for screens |
MutantTurkey | samelian: i think we use default fonts? |
*kb9vqf is trying to imagine it in the archlinux scheme | |
MutantTurkey | :p |
kb9vqf | Why don't you get the archlinux-like style integrated? |
kb9vqf | That way we can see what the end result will be |
kb9vqf | Just a thought |
MutantTurkey | hmmm? that is insane i think. |
MutantTurkey | I will give it a shot |
kb9vqf | Insane? |
MutantTurkey | let me try. |
kb9vqf | OK |
samelian | if you need help for css, i have some experience with it |
kb9vqf | :) |
MutantTurkey | samelian: great thanks |
kb9vqf | And I can help with the graphics |
kb9vqf | To some extent |
MutantTurkey | graphics? |
kb9vqf | To replace the archlinux logo and such |
MutantTurkey | right. that is easy enoguh |
MutantTurkey | okay, so the archlinux website is written with python. |
kb9vqf | Backend engine is ??? |
kb9vqf | RSS? |
MutantTurkey | python. |
MutantTurkey | yes |
MutantTurkey | python python python |
*MutantTurkey has left #trinity-desktop | |
samelian | probably django |
samelian | no matter very much |
*MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | sorry did i quit? dumb pidgin |
kb9vqf | I was actually wondering about the content database |
kb9vqf | SQL, flat file, or something else |
MutantTurkey | django? |
samelian | django is a framework written in python |
MutantTurkey | sorry |
samelian | like ruby on rails, for example |
MutantTurkey | yeah |
MutantTurkey | yeah this is quite confusing i cannot figure it out. |
MutantTurkey | archlinux has it available on their website's git tree |
kb9vqf | I'm guessing we just need to take its database and tweak it |
kb9vqf | Then change the style elements some |
samelian | i can do it in few hours, but i'm too lazy :) |
MutantTurkey | :p |
MutantTurkey | I think i am going to play pond hockey soon |
MutantTurkey | all tentative though, hopefully the ice is good |
samelian | i'm bored too much by web development in my real job |
MutantTurkey | haha |
kb9vqf | And upower is too exciting? |
kb9vqf | ;-) |
samelian | hehe, for sure |
samelian | brb, rebooting access point |
*samelian has joined #trinity-desktop | |
*Xu_R_ is tired... | |
MutantTurkey | word |
Xu_R_ | it's only 1650 too... I hate waking up at 545 every weekday lol |
samelian | wow |
samelian | there is 23:50 :) |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R_: EST also? nice. |
Xu_R_ | samelian: CET, I'm guessing? :) |
Xu_R_ | MutantTurkey: Yup, DC |
samelian | EET, i think |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R_: philly up here. |

Xu_R_ | samelian: oh yea, that's EET. |
Xu_R_ | MutantTurkey: oh, well, you have the prowess of living near the crazy Piki (because he says he lives up in philly, no idea how true that is xD) |
samelian | what is philly? |
Xu_R_ | samelian: Philadelphia, PA, USA |
samelian | aa, thx :) |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R_: :o uh oh. well. |
Xu_R_ | lol MutantTurkey |
MutantTurkey | Trinity Drinking party! |
samelian | haha |
samelian | I drink already few beers |
samelian | and same time I try to understand dbus-qt3 :)) |
Xu_R_ | LOL |
MutantTurkey | hahah |
MutantTurkey | relevent text: http://xkcd.com/323/ |
samelian | yeah :) |
samelian | i think I need few more beers |
samelian | wtf, my klipper crashing when I select some text in qt assistant |
*field_it has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | hmmm |
samelian | kb9vqf: you notice that kde4 migrating to git? |
kb9vqf | Yes |
*kb9vqf doesn't want to learn another VCS | |
kb9vqf | I'm sick of change for the sake of change |
samelian | hehe |
kb9vqf | My limited experience with git is not, shall we say, positive |
kb9vqf | :-P |
kb9vqf | I'll probably end up cloning the SVN tree and hosting it here |
kb9vqf | Not something i was looking forward to doing |
samelian | yep |
*kb9vqf goes back to work, grumbling and muttering | |
MutantTurkey | git is awesome |
kb9vqf | That may be, but the change sure isn't when you're dealing with a project the size of Trinity |
kb9vqf | And all the automated tools that have been slowly built around SVN |
kb9vqf | e.g. first thing to break will be that nice set of patches on the Trinity website |
kb9vqf | Followed by other items internally |
kb9vqf | Maybe we'll move in the future, but NOT NOW |
kb9vqf | :) |
*samelian is proud, just getting power devices list using qt3 dbus :) | |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: check this out |
MutantTurkey | http://96.245.17.6/index_main.html |
kb9vqf | Ooo, nice! |
MutantTurkey | also removes the need for frames, which suck |
kb9vqf | Can that gray become white though? |
MutantTurkey | one thing you want to have is the ability to change everything at once, so we can use php to include source code from a different file |
MutantTurkey | yessir |
MutantTurkey | that is all css able |
samelian | MutantTurkey: try #dedede for grey |
MutantTurkey | samelian: kb9vqf said white |
kb9vqf | Or very light gray |
kb9vqf | Let's see which looks better |
samelian | f0f0f0 |
kb9vqf | I hate the dark gray, that's all |
samelian | me too |
kb9vqf | Also, I'd like that header on all pages |
*kb9vqf can use PHP I suppose | |
kb9vqf | Is the header in a separate php file? |
samelian | actually black header looking like kde4 |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | Yuck |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: like i said, will be. |
MutantTurkey | WAIT WHAT? |
kb9vqf | ?? |
MutantTurkey | sorry. |
MutantTurkey | to many chats open -__- |
samelian | in any case, the contrast between pure black and pure white is too high |
MutantTurkey | samelian: yes |
MutantTurkey | i am looking for a lighter grey |
samelian | grey is boring, i think |
samelian | at least for header |
kb9vqf | What did white look like? |
MutantTurkey | okay. look we can deal with that later |
MutantTurkey | it hurt my eyes |
MutantTurkey | let me show you |
MutantTurkey | look now http://96.245.17.6/index_main.html |
kb9vqf | I still see gray... |
MutantTurkey | refresh should do it. |
kb9vqf | Are we talking about the same thing? |
samelian | also, try body { margin: 0px; padding: 0px; } |
kb9vqf | I meant the header background |
MutantTurkey | yeah sorry |
MutantTurkey | weird padding |
kb9vqf | I was wondering what a white background with blue text would look like |
samelian | nope |
samelian | blue text meaning link |
kb9vqf | Right |
kb9vqf | For the links |
kb9vqf | Not for the other elements ;-) |
samelian | we must avoid blue for texts |
MutantTurkey | there we go. fixed that body issue |
kb9vqf | I was referring to blue text for the shortcut links on the top right |
samelian | the text must be dark grey or black |
MutantTurkey | I am confused by all of you talking D: |
samelian | haha |
kb9vqf | Dark blue for links, black for text |
MutantTurkey | and the bar? |
kb9vqf | Blue, as it is |
kb9vqf | OR |
kb9vqf | What about a background like ktip uses? |
kb9vqf | With the little squares fading away? |
kb9vqf | I kind of like that effect :) |
MutantTurkey | that means a image. |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | One |
MutantTurkey | that means slower loads. |
samelian | now, you need a content div, with some padding |
MutantTurkey | samelian: right. no fucking idea with that. tbh |
MutantTurkey | I am trying to fix the html right now. |
samelian | make this in css |
MutantTurkey | its a bit messy |
kb9vqf | Well, I was just thinking something other than white |
MutantTurkey | samelian: this is a css file. |
samelian | #content { padding: 10px; } |
samelian | then put the content in |
samelian | <div id="content">blablabla content</div> |
MutantTurkey | oh okay |
MutantTurkey | so basically you tag a div with an id and then it reads the css for it? |
MutantTurkey | applys the settings |
samelian | yes |
MutantTurkey | ah. css is not so hard :) |
samelian | actually is not |
samelian | for classes, you can use . (dot) |
samelian | .content { padding: 10px; } |
MutantTurkey | right i don't know that yet |
samelian | <div class="content">blabla</div> |
samelian | the id is used ONLY for unique objects |
MutantTurkey | :o |
MutantTurkey | oh |
MutantTurkey | so i start a divider and anything in that falls under content? |
samelian | anything until corespondent </div> |
MutantTurkey | look now :D :D http://96.245.17.6/index_main.html |
samelian | very well :) |
MutantTurkey | great :D |
samelian | do not forget to close opened divs |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: so this is definitely good progress. I think i need to take a break fromt the computer. |
MutantTurkey | samelian: of course. sanity is key. |
kb9vqf | OK, incredibly crude mock up, but what about this color scheme: |
kb9vqf | http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=208edsy&s=7 |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: ^^ |
MutantTurkey | from now on use imgur okay? |
MutantTurkey | http://imgur.com |
kb9vqf | Ah, much nicer |
kb9vqf | OK |
MutantTurkey | okay that theme is nice. |
MutantTurkey | imgur is just really easy. |
*kb9vqf didn't know about it | |
kb9vqf | Thanks :) |
MutantTurkey | you can direct link files |
MutantTurkey | any way i think i will go for a walk |
kb9vqf | OK |
kb9vqf | ttyl |
samelian | kb9vqf: KDE3 have any class specialized to contain errors (type, name, etc)? |
samelian | I won't to send QDBusError directly to classes which will use libkupower |
kb9vqf | I don't see any |
kb9vqf | Usually errors are just handled via custom (class-specific) typdefs |
kb9vqf | enums that is |
samelian | i want to emit a signal when an error ocur |
kb9vqf | You could always create one ;-) |
kb9vqf | Use an int type |
kb9vqf | To contain the error |
kb9vqf | QString for description |
samelian | right now all apps which using dbus (like knetworkmanager) do not send usefull errors to user |
samelian | maybe we need to invent a generic error class? |
samelian | TError |
samelian | haha, terror |
samelian | sounds nice |
kb9vqf | Hehe |
*kb9vqf got Kate working (mostly) under Qt4... :) | |
samelian | nice |
MutantTurkey | back |
samelian | on the other hand, seems that I will be able to handle DBUS directly |
kb9vqf | Great! |
*kb9vqf needs to go...sorry.... | |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Try the new color scheme |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: do you think we should have a right justified sub menu and such like arch linux? |
kb9vqf | YES |
kb9vqf | For release information and files |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: okay, well how would we integrate that immediately |
MutantTurkey | and i am going to get rid of index.php and rename index.html to index.php |
kb9vqf | OK |
kb9vqf | Put the 3.5.11 and 3.5.12 links in that box |
kb9vqf | The ones that were on the lower left |
MutantTurkey | oh okies. |
kb9vqf | We might move the distribution stuff there eventually, not sure ATM |
MutantTurkey | do you have an rss feed for package updates? or something |
kb9vqf | Nope |
kb9vqf | Not yet |
*kb9vqf doesn't know much about RSS | |
kb9vqf | But I'm willing to learn :) |
kb9vqf | Seems to be all the rage these days |
MutantTurkey | :) great |
MutantTurkey | okay. what we need is |
MutantTurkey | a single defining sentance that defines trinity. |
*kb9vqf needs to go...sorry.... | |
kb9vqf | poke me later :) |
MutantTurkey | okay great |
samelian | i'm not sure how to return values from my classes |
MutantTurkey | return value; |
MutantTurkey | :| |
samelian | bool TClient::enumerateDevices(QValueList<TDevice> &devices); |
samelian | or |
samelian | QValueList<TDevice> TClient::enumerateDevices(bool *ok); |
samelian | kb9vqf: you have any preffered way? |
samelian | MutantTurkey: is not so simple :) |
MutantTurkey | samelian: sorry i honestly was joking. I'm sure its confusing |
samelian | i know :) |
samelian | the problem is that I need to return two values at same time |
samelian | and I want to choose a "standard" way |
samelian | using the first method, is easy to test if the method was succesfully executed |
samelian | like |
samelian | if(client->enumerateDevices(devices)) qWarning("We have a problem"); |
samelian | "if(!", actually |
samelian | the second method is more clear |
samelian | bool ok; |
samelian | QValueList<TDevice> devices = TClient::enumerateDevices(&ok); |
samelian | if(!ok) qWarning("We have a problem"); |
MutantTurkey | right, well |
MutantTurkey | both ways seem pretty normal to me |
samelian | yes, but i need to choose one :) |
MutantTurkey | I say first one, seems more standard C to me. I don't know about C++ |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: hey so i have it including the top bar now :D |
samelian | C++ support referrences, not only pointers |
MutantTurkey | yes i do not understand references |
samelian | is something like this: |
samelian | my_function(bool &ok); |
samelian | I will call this function in this way: |
samelian | bool ok; |
samelian | my_function(ok); |
samelian | without using &ok |
MutantTurkey | oh alright |
samelian | also, if i'm not wrong, C cannot return structures |
samelian | only pointers |
samelian | or i'm wrong? |
samelian | C++ have operators overloading too |
samelian | for example, you can redefine the meaning of =, -, +, etc |
MutantTurkey | c can return structures? |
MutantTurkey | wait |
MutantTurkey | well |
MutantTurkey | pointers are everything in C |
samelian | yes, I know |
MutantTurkey | but you could also return a structure i think. |
samelian | as general rule, in C++ are avoided, if possible |
samelian | to avoid potential leaks |
samelian | memory leaks* |
MutantTurkey | you definitely can. for example. i wrote a web browser, to dynamicallycreate structures of tabs, i had a function that returned new tabs after being allocated |
MutantTurkey | memory leaks D: |
MutantTurkey | the bane of my existanc |
samelian | valgrind is your friend :) |
MutantTurkey | yeah super useful |
MutantTurkey | valgrind and gdb and such |
samelian | if you check a (good writen) C++ source, you will found that pointers are almost unused |
MutantTurkey | samelian: okay what else needs to happen? http://96.245.17.6/ |
samelian | seems ok for me |
samelian | as layout |
MutantTurkey | okay. great |
samelian | maybe a little bigger padding for #content |
samelian | try 20px |
samelian | for validate html, use http://validator.w3.org/ |
MutantTurkey | okay |
MutantTurkey | yeah |
MutantTurkey | i am sanitizing it right now. |
samelian | use the same case for tags |
samelian | i preffer lower case for tags |
MutantTurkey | yeah |
MutantTurkey | it was all uppercase |
MutantTurkey | so i didn't change it |
MutantTurkey | i could use sed to replace them, but i am lazy |
MutantTurkey | it is proper to do </p> right? |
samelian | yes |
MutantTurkey | great |
MutantTurkey | and that acts as a <BR> also? |
samelian | sort of |
samelian | <br> and <hr> can be avoided |
MutantTurkey | hr? |
MutantTurkey | hr is a line i thought |
samelian | horizontal line |
samelian | yes |
samelian | you can use style |
samelian | for div |
MutantTurkey | you can style it to add a horizontal line? |
samelian | border-bottom: solid 1px #000000 |
MutantTurkey | NICE |
MutantTurkey | thank you. |
MutantTurkey | I am linking css more and more :) |
samelian | hehe |
MutantTurkey | liking' |
samelian | actually this is the way |
samelian | web 2.0 :) |
MutantTurkey | gross :p |
MutantTurkey | actually i like web 2.0 just not anything that is over doing it. |
samelian | also, we must avoid <font> tag |
MutantTurkey | http://incise.org is my style |
MutantTurkey | samelian: yes i know. that is obvious |
samelian | for most my own pages, I use incise.org style too |
Xu_R_ | MutantTurkey: nice new layout, it looks good for a Trinity website :) I'd love to see that on Trinity anytime, just maybe not so much looking like Arch |
Xu_R_ | 's website o.o |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R_: yes. we are re theming it. |
MutantTurkey | http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=208edsy&s=7 |
MutantTurkey | more like that. |
Xu_R_ | MutantTurkey: niceeee |
samelian | on right side we can put trinity screenshots |
MutantTurkey | want some on the home page? |
samelian | why now |
samelian | not |
MutantTurkey | if you could send me a nice, default picture i could add it. |
MutantTurkey | I'll make a thumbnail (should be standard) and then have a screenshot section |
MutantTurkey | thumbnails are low quality and low res as to make it loast faster |
Xu_R_ | MutantTurkey: letthe screenshot of the latest release |
Xu_R_ | *let's have it so the screenshot is of the latest release |
MutantTurkey | the screen of te latest release? |
MutantTurkey | can i get one, I don't have trinity :o |
Xu_R_ | http://apt.pearsoncomputing.net/cdimages/ the ad screenshots :) |
samelian | MutantTurkey: for body you do not need to use id |
samelian | you can declare in css in this way: |
samelian | body { blabla styles; } |
MutantTurkey | samelian: hmmm I thought i did that |
samelian | nope |
MutantTurkey | there we go |
samelian | in your css i see #body |
MutantTurkey | look at the html. sanitized. |
MutantTurkey | wait not yet D: wtf is with all these caps |
samelian | close </body> and </html> too |
MutantTurkey | how do i not use font if i want a specific font for one word? |
MutantTurkey | (for the record i didn't write this page, it was already messed up i am fixing it up. |
MutantTurkey | :p |
samelian | <span> |
MutantTurkey | <span>? |
samelian | <span style="font:"> |
MutantTurkey | isn't that basically the same thing? |
samelian | actually is not good ideea to change font face in text |
MutantTurkey | I typically disagree but not in this point |
MutantTurkey | in this case the colors are important |
samelian | i see that here we use font for changing colose |
samelian | color |
MutantTurkey | yeah |
samelian | you can use this style: |
samelian | span.red { color: #ff0000; } |
samelian | and in html |
samelian | test <span class="red">red text</span> |
MutantTurkey | okay. |
MutantTurkey | so span.red span.green etc? |
MutantTurkey | what about <i> and <b>? |
samelian | <em> |
samelian | and <strong> |
MutantTurkey | wow really? |
samelian | yep |
MutantTurkey | i thought we got rid of strong |
samelian | in any case, I do not like very much textes with too many colors |
MutantTurkey | agreed |
samelian | is like a rambow :) |
samelian | parrot, actually :) |
MutantTurkey | what about the totally rank gnarley table he has there, what should i do with it? |
MutantTurkey | samelian: another q, with the bottem border, should i make an ID for each group or one for them all? |
samelian | only one |
MutantTurkey | okay |
MutantTurkey | named "section" ? |
MutantTurkey | is that fine? |
samelian | yes, pretty clear |
MutantTurkey | okay sweet |
MutantTurkey | my childhood hobby of working on html is returning rapidly |
samelian | just do not use id, but class |
MutantTurkey | D: |
samelian | as i said, id is for unique objects |
MutantTurkey | schwat? |
MutantTurkey | oh |
MutantTurkey | class="blah blah blah" |
MutantTurkey | defined the same way? |
samelian | yes |
samelian | put . (dot) instead #, in css |
MutantTurkey | so .content { padding: 10px; font-family: sans-serif;} |
MutantTurkey | ? |
samelian | yes |
MutantTurkey | for example |
MutantTurkey | thanks |
MutantTurkey | so you reckon this new website will be used? |
samelian | i'm, pretty sure :) |
MutantTurkey | sweet. i hope everyone is impressed |
samelian | make likes grey |
MutantTurkey | links? |
samelian | separator lines |
samelian | for sections |
MutantTurkey | oh |
MutantTurkey | okay |
MutantTurkey | yeah, how do i add padding to them? |
MutantTurkey | like, the bottom border is right up on the last line of the divider |
samelian | instead solid you can also use dotted and dashed |
samelian | padding-top |
samelian | padding-bottom |
MutantTurkey | okay |
MutantTurkey | great |
samelian | also, you can use margin-top, margin-bottom |
MutantTurkey | okay also, should i create a footer also? |
samelian | sure |
<msg channel="#trinity-desktop" nick="samelian" time="2011-02-05T00:51:12Z">© 2011 blabla</msg> | |
MutantTurkey | yeah all that jaz |
MutantTurkey | jazz' |
samelian | put in <head> this: |
samelian | <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"> |
MutantTurkey | okay |
samelian | and before <html> |
samelian | <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> |
MutantTurkey | okay did that |
MutantTurkey | no wait. |
MutantTurkey | its not html is php |
MutantTurkey | does that matter? |
samelian | nope |
MutantTurkey | it does |
MutantTurkey | because i just added it and removed it and it broke the header during it. |
MutantTurkey | didn't seem to load the CSS |
samelian | for browser is plain html |
MutantTurkey | fixed it |
MutantTurkey | the meta needed a /> on the end |
samelian | check with html validator |
samelian | i think you have some errors |
MutantTurkey | thanks for your no stop help |
samelian | hehe |
samelian | at this moment, is my current job :) |
samelian | unfortunately for me |
MutantTurkey | yeah this would be no fun |
samelian | you have no <html> before <head> |
MutantTurkey | D: |
MutantTurkey | i am so forgetful |
samelian | http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http://96.245.17.6/&charset=(detect+automatically)&doctype=Inline&group=0 |
MutantTurkey | the validator is telling me i can't have a /> at the end of my first line, but without it my css won't load D: |
MutantTurkey | I'm already on it :P |
samelian | remove it |
samelian | then will see what happens |
MutantTurkey | no or else my css breaks? |
samelian | is break for a reason |
samelian | remove / and will see what is wrong |
MutantTurkey | the only thing wrong is apparently tables are no longer supposed to use bordercolor or padding |
MutantTurkey | how do i put that into a css property? |
MutantTurkey | make an id for a table? |
samelian | sure |
samelian | try to remove media= from css link |
samelian | i'm not sure what is wrong with it |
MutantTurkey | ? |
samelian | wait a moment |
MutantTurkey | okay |
samelian | try to remove media="screen, projection" |
MutantTurkey | i did |
samelian | hmm, strange |
MutantTurkey | yeah, would it be related to my php include maybe? |
samelian | i don't think so |
MutantTurkey | hrmm |
samelian | hehe, you must be happy that "This document was successfully checked as HTML 4.01 Transitional!" :) |
MutantTurkey | well apparently it is valid |
MutantTurkey | yeah. |
MutantTurkey | D: |
MutantTurkey | should i just say "FUCK STANDARDS" and fix the two lines back to the way they were? |
MutantTurkey | i mean other than that it is valid |
samelian | haha |
samelian | ok, remove !DOCTYPE, will check another time what is the problem |
samelian | wait, i will validate css too |
MutantTurkey | okay good thinking |
samelian | http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/validator?uri=96.245.17.6/media/archnavbar.css&profile=css21&usermedium=all&warning=1&vextwarning=&lang=en |
MutantTurkey | won't validate |
MutantTurkey | my mime types are screwey it won't serve it up. |
*SpaceMint has joined #trinity-desktop | |
samelian | seems that your server announce that css is octet-stream |
MutantTurkey | yeah whatever |
MutantTurkey | i'll copy paste |
samelian | must be css/text |
samelian | i think you must set lighthttp to announce corect tyle of css file |
MutantTurkey | I just copied in the text to the CSS validator |
MutantTurkey | said 'grats no errors :) |
samelian | aha |
MutantTurkey | do you think that is why my css is messed up? |
samelian | i think that will working well on correct set server |
samelian | nope, i don't think so |
MutantTurkey | oh well. I am not worried. |
MutantTurkey | it is fine |
samelian | correct "Offical" word |

tbottu | samelian: ok |
Xu_R_ | XD |
MutantTurkey | okay new theme |
MutantTurkey | http://96.245.17.6/ |
Xu_R_ | MutantTurkey: :O |
samelian | MutantTurkey: change color for menu intems |
Xu_R_ | oooh, ahhhh... /stares |
MutantTurkey | to blue? |
Xu_R_ | it looks perfect for me :) |
MutantTurkey | hahah :p |
samelian | can by a grey background |
Xu_R_ | MutantTurkey: top menu, hovering over menu items should not make them white (aka, unseeable) |
samelian | put this: |
samelian | a:hover { background-color: grey; } |
MutantTurkey | right |
MutantTurkey | there we go |
samelian | or you can do this |
MutantTurkey | I did it (was just a color change, the hover was just set to white) |
samelian | a:hover { border: 1px grey #a0a0a0; background-color: #dedede; } |
samelian | actually |
samelian | a:hover { border: 1px solid #a0a0a0; background-color: #dedede; } |
MutantTurkey | ? |
MutantTurkey | what does that do? |
samelian | in css |
samelian | instead #archnavbar ul li a:hover { color: #999 !important; text-decoration: underline !important; } |
MutantTurkey | you lost me. |
samelian | replace #archnavbar ul li a:hover { color: #999 !important; text-decoration: underline !important; } |
samelian | with |
samelian | #archnavbar a:hover { border: 1px solid #a0a0a0; background-color: #dedede; } |
MutantTurkey | okay |
MutantTurkey | I am not sure i like it this way. why the change? |
samelian | just for fun :) |
samelian | can be improved |
MutantTurkey | D: |
MutantTurkey | well i think i have made enough progress for one day? |
samelian | i think so |
MutantTurkey | I'd like to get the table working though first |
samelian | instead working on libkupower i play with css :) |
Xu_R_ | go samelian! :P |
MutantTurkey | anyway I'm all done for the day. |
MutantTurkey | I will leave my website running up for you guys so show kb9vqf if he comes back tonight |
MutantTurkey | i maybe be able to hop on tonight. |
MutantTurkey | or do you think i should mailing list this? |
samelian | not yet |
samelian | i think we need to improbe a little the color scheme |
MutantTurkey | yes. |
MutantTurkey | i do not like white ad the background. |
MutantTurkey | for the top bar |
MutantTurkey | anyway people can argue about colors all they want, the key is getting the website updated |
samelian | for sure |
MutantTurkey | because the current one is a major turn off. |
MutantTurkey | how is anyone going to think of you as up to date if you are using a website from 1999? |
samelian | hehe |
MutantTurkey | Alright well i gotta split. heading over to a buddies to hang out. |
MutantTurkey | talk to you later. and thanks for all the css help |

Strangelv | What would be a better color? |
Strangelv | My guess is it was chosen as that's the legacy heraldic color we inherited |

*Strangelv is tyring to get a graphical pattern for a project code named Kookaburra that he's been working on since last week around distractions and the non-vorking right alt is getting to be very, very annoying | |

strowi | ping serghei? |
samelian | pong :) |
strowi | ah, hi thx for your mails regarding the ebuilds (i'm Roman). |
samelian | welcome |
strowi | i got kdelibs compiled without avahi, still have a problem with the libdir on 64bit though. |
samelian | what kind of problem? |
strowi | not sure if its arts or kdelibs.. compiling kdelibs with arts, seems to need /usr/kde/3.5/lib/libmcop.so.1, which is called ../lib64/.. that symlink is created after compilation of kdelibs. |
samelian | aha, i think is arts |
samelian | but in arts' cmake is _tde_internal_setup_path( LIB_INSTALL_DIR "${EXEC_INSTALL_PREFIX}/lib${LIB_SUFFIX}" ) |
strowi | everything is installed in lib64, but it seems mcopidl looks in lib ( http://paste.pocoo.org/show/332524/ ) |
samelian | is used LIB_SUFFIX |
samelian | you set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to apropriate dir? |
strowi | where should i have set that? |
strowi | oh.. hold on a second.. |
samelian | strowi: i think i found the problem |
samelian | -DCMAKE_INSTALL_RPATH=/usr/kde/3.5/lib |
strowi | i didn't see the hardcoded MAKE_INSTALL_RPATH in kdelibs |
samelian | in ebuild |
strowi | ;) |
strowi | ${DEFAULT_ABI} should work |
strowi | need to fix that in all others ebuilds or still create the symlink.. |
samelian | CMAKE_INSTALL_RPATH was I temporary workaround |
samelian | I think the better idea is to use LD_LIBRARY_PATH |
samelian | /I temporary/a temporary/ |
strowi | LD_LIBRARY_PATH = LDPAT H? |
samelian | strowi: whay you mean |
samelian | what* |
strowi | sry, is LD_LIBRARY_PATH the same as LDPATH? |
samelian | i'm not sure, I don't know what is LDPATH |
samelian | LD_LIBRARY_PATH is like PATH, but for libraries |
strowi | ok, seems gentoo-specific... |
strowi | "I keep reading that LD_LIBRARY_PATH is insecure, and for gentoo env vars, it seems to only use LDPATH" |
samelian | i see |
samelian | in this case go to use LDPATH |
strowi | addded to todo. |
strowi | ok, that worked.;) |
samelian | very well |
samelian | strowi: you used my git repo for makink yours? |
strowi | samelian, yes |
samelian | i this is a bit outdated |
samelian | I think |
*samelian can't type | |
strowi | hehe.. which one? |
samelian | git diff show me a pretty long list :) |
strowi | mhh.. can you push it, or send me a patch? |
samelian | the most important I think is kdevelop |
samelian | wait |
samelian | strowi: pushed |
strowi | if the diff is only new ebuild it can wait a little still need to work through the existing ones. |
samelian | sure |
samelian | strowi: there is one more person who working on ebuilds |
strowi | really? who? |
samelian | toxic_something |
samelian | a russian guy |
samelian | I think that would be good ideea to merge our efforts |
samelian | to avoid duplicate work |
strowi | sure, didn't know there was anyone else.. |
strowi | do you have contact to him? |
samelian | he appear here, from time to time |
samelian | but he tell me that his english is not so good |
samelian | I think do not matter to much, me english is bad either :) |
samelian | s/me/my/ |
strowi | well, my russian is non-existant. So bad english es better than nothing. |
samelian | hehe |
samelian | if you want, I will give you right to change the git repo started by me |
strowi | that would be nice, but i can't promise i won't mess up sth... |
samelian | no problem, my ebuild are ugly anyway :) |
samelian | you have account on github? |
strowi | just found another problem... kde-config seems to be missing... |
samelian | be sure that PATH are correctly set |
strowi | its not in kde/3.5/bin/ |
samelian | kde-config is not in /usr/kde/3.5/bin ? |
samelian | are you sure? |
strowi | yes, only arts-files |
samelian | kdelibs are installed? |
strowi | yes |
samelian | hmm, strange |
strowi | maybe i messed sth up already. |
samelian | you changed something in CMakeLists.txt? |
strowi | only the avahi-part. |
strowi | http://paste.pocoo.org/show/332538/ |
samelian | yes, I saw it in your git |
samelian | "qfile kde-config" do not return anything? |
strowi | nope |
samelian | weird |
samelian | try to re-emerge kdelibs and check what happens with kde-config |
strowi | already running ebuild .. install |
samelian | ok, ping me if you found something |
strowi | ok |
*samelian has joined #trinity-desktop | |
strowi | rehi samelian |
samelian | strowi: you found something? |
strowi | well.. i found my own mistake.. |
strowi | i added a src_install, but forgot to call cmake-utils_src_install *argh* |
strowi | so there was nothing installed from kdelibs.. as i said before, i am not that much of an portage-guru. |
Strangelv | "You're making far better headway than I would |
strowi | samelian, my github account is "strowi". |
samelian | ok |
strowi | samelian, how do you handle the Manifests? Do you merge them or rm/add them? |
samelian | rm/digest |
strowi | oh.. there must be an easier way.. maybe via post-update-hook.. |
samelian | strowi: I added you to github |
strowi | samelian, thx, i will still maintain my own overlay and push to yours as i have working versions and i see fit. if that is ok. |
samelian | for sure |
samelian | we are volunteers, after all :) |
strowi | samelian, do you want your distfiles added to the mirrorlist or should mine me the only one? |
samelian | exclude my host |
samelian | maybe I will broke it |
strowi | ok, will you update the distfiles? I have no idea how/where to get them.. |
samelian | I make a lot experiments and is hard to keep is stabke |
samelian | stable |
samelian | from svn |
samelian | http://websvn.kde.org/branches/trinity/ |
samelian | Ladislav Laska (Krakonos) have write rights on my git repo too |
samelian | but seems inactive |
strowi | uhh looks like lots of work to do.. |
samelian | what do you mean? |
samelian | you talk about svn? |
strowi | i have to check how to make the packages from the svn and how/which directories to include... |
samelian | follow my distfiles |
strowi | ok, but first things first.. get a working version.;) |
samelian | hehe, ok |
samelian | if you have suggestions related to cmake, do not make patches for gentoo |
samelian | just tell me, and I will commit it to svn |
strowi | samelian, understood, it was just the single avahi till now... |
samelian | ok, I will incorporate it to my cmake files |

MutantTurkey | hey |
*toxic_devil has joined #trinity-desktop | |
toxic_devil | hi |
MutantTurkey | how is it going? |
*field_it has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: I've emailed some guy who had a great article about Slackware and Trinity, asking him if we could include it on the improved website. |
*toxic_devil has joined #trinity-desktop | |
toxic_devil | shit |
MutantTurkey | what? |
MutantTurkey | samelian: hey man i need some formatting help D: |
toxic_devil | а мне cmake нужен на остальной софт |
samelian | hit me |
MutantTurkey | samelian: what do i do with <u> 's? |
MutantTurkey | why did they get rid of that? |
MutantTurkey | ITS FUCKING annoying as hell. |
MutantTurkey | css is great but. |
MutantTurkey | seriously i don't want to define something for a single word. |
samelian | replace <u> with <em> |
toxic_devil | samelian: hm |
MutantTurkey | em is underline? |
samelian | ah, no |
samelian | i have no ideea |
MutantTurkey | :| |
toxic_devil | samelian: cmake у тебя есть на остальной софт? |
MutantTurkey | i feel like they got rid of it for no reason whatsoever |
samelian | i'm against text decoration, becaue is like a link |
MutantTurkey | change for the sake of change |
samelian | toxic_devil: i do not understand |
toxic_devil | ( |
samelian | you ask me what version for cmake i have? |
toxic_devil | эмм |
toxic_devil | блин |
toxic_devil | when will complete porting to cmake? |
toxic_devil | pim |
toxic_devil | multimedia |
samelian | depends what you understand with "complete" |
toxic_devil | блин |
*aledec has joined #trinity-desktop | |
*aledec has joined #trinity-desktop | |
toxic_devil | мне нужен CMakeFilelist.txt на все пакеты |
samelian | there are all done packages: http://www.thel.ro/ |
toxic_devil | samelian: а когда это все в svn будет? |
samelian | i'm not sure |
toxic_devil | в чем не уверен?? |
toxic_devil | почему svn в таком плачевном состоянии?? |
toxic_devil | что у вас там вообше происходит? |
samelian | i working on cmake port only in my spare time |
samelian | so, I do not know when will be ready |
MutantTurkey | samelian: i can help probably |
toxic_devil | вы извините конечно но вы как то неслаженно работаете((( |
samelian | don't worry, is obviosuly |
toxic_devil | samelian: соберите все файлы и закачайте на svn |
toxic_devil | [20:36:30] <megabaks> |
toxic_devil | »Note: these tarballs contain ONLY cmake related files (not trinity sources). |
toxic_devil | пля - да у него всё есть уже - только пульни на свн и всё! |
toxic_devil | »Note: these tarballs contain ONLY cmake related files (not trinity sources). |
toxic_devil | samelian: понимаешь? |
samelian | the cmake files are not ready to be commited to svn |
toxic_devil | samelian: закачай файлы хоть куда нибудь |
toxic_devil | раз времени нет |
toxic_devil | samelian: что именно не готово? |
samelian | i think the cmake files will be change too often |
samelian | and I do not want to flood svn wil a lot small changes |
samelian | can be annoying for other kde developers |
toxic_devil | samelian: вы что договориться не можете между собой? |
samelian | this is not problem, the problem is that I have a rule to not commit unfinished work to svn |
toxic_devil | samelian: у тебя правило? |
toxic_devil | а нам что делать?? |
toxic_devil | как собирать? |
toxic_devil | сделайте нормальную инструкцию по сборке |
samelian | at this moment you can use my distfiles |
toxic_devil | }:-( |
samelian | or you can help to make more cmake files :) |
toxic_devil | samelian: у тебя есть что-нибудь наподобие инструкции по сборке? |
toxic_devil | тогда мы help тебе |
toxic_devil | не |
toxic_devil | ну обидно |
toxic_devil | debian и ubuntu сразу сделали деб паеты а нам фиг |
samelian | this is because deb are using autotools instead cmake |
samelian | I won't using autotools for ebuilds |
toxic_devil | WTF? |
toxic_devil | почему для базы можно, а для pim например нет? |
samelian | kdepim is partial comleted, only kmail are ported |
toxic_devil | samelian: а когда готово будет? |
samelian | i can't be sure, because I working on other projects too |
samelian | right now I have't time to continue cmake |
toxic_devil | samelian: а почему ты один этим занимаешься |
samelian | i have no ideea, because nobody won't help me? :)) |
toxic_devil | на вас кто-то жавит что ли? |
toxic_devil | давит |
toxic_devil | samelian: если даш пример чего-нибудь, то я от тебя отстану |
samelian | please rephrase, i do not understand |
toxic_devil | samelian: Мы не можем ждать |
toxic_devil | если будете так делать |
toxic_devil | ваш проект умрет |
samelian | in this case, you can help it to survive :) |
toxic_devil | samelian: так |
toxic_devil | samelian: давай все что у тя есть |
samelian | everyting is on www.thel.ro, this my website |
toxic_devil | samelian: что нить еше есть? |
samelian | nope |
*samelian has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | o/ |
MutantTurkey | Who else here is making an attempt to do trinity on arch? someone posted to the mailing list again? nattyice something at gmail.com |
samelian | MutantTurkey: if i'm not wrong, David C. Rankin |
MutantTurkey | what is his nickname on the irc? |
samelian | i'm not sure that is active on irc |
MutantTurkey | ah. |
MutantTurkey | yeah i need to ask him what he has done so far. |
samelian | right now, he trying to build kdebase |
samelian | check on mailing list my discussion with him |
MutantTurkey | okay I will. |
MutantTurkey | did he build all the other stuff like tqt-interface and such? |
samelian | i guess |
MutantTurkey | he definitely was doing it wrong. didn't even patch qt3 so i dunno |
MutantTurkey | samelian: is it bad to use the <br> tag? |
samelian | sometimes can be used |
samelian | but most of times you do something wrong if you need <br> |
MutantTurkey | http://96.245.17.6/installation.php |
MutantTurkey | i need to format that specificially for new lines. so i forced a br |
MutantTurkey | look at the source |
MutantTurkey | is that okay? |
samelian | i think you can use <p> for each line |
MutantTurkey | ? |
MutantTurkey | really? |
samelian | <p>deb http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity/ubuntu maverick main</p> |
samelian | why not |
MutantTurkey | the would result in excess spacing |
MutantTurkey | i just need a line break. |
MutantTurkey | why not just <br> (break) |
samelian | you can style <p> |
MutantTurkey | wouldn't that make more sense? |
MutantTurkey | what is wrong with <br> / |
samelian | maybe you want to indent a little the text |
MutantTurkey | it is supported in HTML5 and does exactly what i need it to. |
MutantTurkey | I already have it indented 20px. there is a "subsection" |
samelian | actually for code i suggest to use <pre> |
MutantTurkey | okay |
samelian | you don't need to keep <br> in <pre> |
samelian | <pre> preserve the text exactly |
samelian | including new lines and spaces |
samelian | yes, very nice |
samelian | just unindent the code |
MutantTurkey | okay |
MutantTurkey | well i kind of like it. |
MutantTurkey | I'd rather actually do like a text box |
MutantTurkey | for code |
MutantTurkey | with a different color |
samelian | <pre> support styles, of course |
MutantTurkey | for example |
MutantTurkey | like |
MutantTurkey | https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Rc.conf |
MutantTurkey | they have a text area for code |
samelian | you can style <pre> as a <div> |
MutantTurkey | so <div id="code"> then <pre> in it? |
samelian | nope |
MutantTurkey | ? |
samelian | <pre class="code"> |
samelian | for example |
MutantTurkey | oh :D |
MutantTurkey | so that makes it act as a div? |
samelian | of couse |
samelian | sort of |
samelian | any container can be styled like a div |
MutantTurkey | oh alright |
samelian | in css, pre.code |
MutantTurkey | http://96.245.17.6/installation.php |
MutantTurkey | eh? |
samelian | pretty well |
samelian | just last line is wrong |
samelian | </pre> must be exactly after .....eps/ubuntu maverick main |
MutantTurkey | right okay |
samelian | because <pre> preserve all line separators |
MutantTurkey | also how do i make it not go the full width? |
samelian | in css |
samelian | width: 70% |
MutantTurkey | would that work for all scenerios? |
samelian | i think |
MutantTurkey | no it won't |
MutantTurkey | because if you have a really small screen it will not wrap the whole text |
samelian | try width: 10% |
samelian | i'm curios if <pre> will be enlarged automatically if the text cannot fit |
samelian | won't |
MutantTurkey | nah |
samelian | try this |
samelian | remove width |
samelian | an put |
samelian | position:relative |
MutantTurkey | nothing. |
MutantTurkey | like this guy has it: http://projectcerbera.com/web/articles/code-in-pre |
samelian | hmm, actually you need a fixed size of code container |
samelian | othwerwise will look ugly |
MutantTurkey | to the specific size of the code? |
samelian | nopw |
samelian | fixed in pixels |
MutantTurkey | D: i thought that was not reccomende |
samelian | will be ugly when the code will have different length |
MutantTurkey | did you see that link? |
samelian | yes, what you look for? |
MutantTurkey | their code box works how i would like it too |
samelian | i'm not so sure |
samelian | his box is narrow because the column is narrow |
MutantTurkey | ah |
*K`zan has joined #trinity-desktop | |
*field_it1 has joined #trinity-desktop | |
samelian | kb9vqf: i don't know if you read about my question related to return values |
samelian | we have two methods to return results |
samelian | bool TClientPrivate::enumerateDevices(QValueList<TDevice> &devices) |
samelian | and QValueList<TDevice> TClient::enumerateDevices(bool *ok) |
kb9vqf | OK |
kb9vqf | What's the question? |
samelian | which of them you preffer? |
samelian | in first case, we can include it easy in if |
samelian | like if(client->enumerateDevices(devices)) |
kb9vqf | I like the first case |
samelian | the second one seems easy to understand |
kb9vqf | It is closer to existing methods in Trinity |
kb9vqf | Many Qt/Trinity methods return a bool error status |
kb9vqf | I haven't seen anything like the second case within Trinity |
samelian | so, this must be standard and I need to folow it |
kb9vqf | Consistency is good :) |
kb9vqf | Unless there is a very good reason not to |
*kb9vqf doesn't like bool pointers anyway | |
samelian | yes, for consistency reason i bother you :) |
kb9vqf | No bother :) |
samelian | kb9vqf: also, maybe you have another ideea about signaling errors |
samelian | ATM i implement it like this: |
samelian | I send an error() signal |
samelian | and the receiver of signal check for sender->lastError(); |
samelian | hmm, I just observed that this can be a problem in a concurent environment |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | Usually errors are handled via a return type of int |
kb9vqf | The int value encodes an error type which is specified in an enum |
samelian | in dbus environment will not be possibile to do this |
kb9vqf | Then emit() the int error value |
kb9vqf | The receiver can check the int value and determine the error |
samelian | you can't encode as int something like "Method "EnumerateDevices1" with signature "" on interface "org.freedesktop.UPower" doesn't exist" |
kb9vqf | You can also emit() an int and a QString |
samelian | yes, this can be a better ideea |
kb9vqf | together that is |
samelian | also, I want to know from where come the error |
kb9vqf | Technically you can emit() as many objects as you like |
samelian | the same error can come from TClient or TDevice |
kb9vqf | So emit() a device type as well |
kb9vqf | Just make sure that that is an int or other machine parsable value |
kb9vqf | Strings are not reliably machine-parsable |
kb9vqf | They are only there to help the human operator ;-) |
samelian | actually my intention is to help humans |
samelian | is very unpleasant when an application just not working, without a clue for what reason is not working |
samelian | an example is knetworkmanager |
kb9vqf | Right |
kb9vqf | My point is: |
kb9vqf | emit() both human and machine readable values |
kb9vqf | Not just one or the other |
kb9vqf | For every int there should be a QString |
kb9vqf | containing the error description |
samelian | i'm not sure if machine readable value can be used for anything |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | Error handling/suppression |
kb9vqf | Spurious errors do happen |
kb9vqf | Or errors that are irrelevant in the current context |
samelian | the error will be emitted asynchronously |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | But the watching program could theoretically ignore an error that it deems irrelevant |
samelian | look, i imagine something like this: |
samelian | if(enumerateDevices(devices)) qWarning("We have a problem, handle it"); |
samelian | emit error("Method call 'EnumerateDevices' failed with unknown error."); |
samelian | the slot connected to error() will show an message box to user |
kb9vqf | I wouild like to have an int there as well |
samelian | to inform him about what happens |
kb9vqf | so emit error(-1, "Unknown error")' |
kb9vqf | Error codes are GOOD |
kb9vqf | For the developer and for client applications |
samelian | I agree, but when can be encoded |
samelian | most of errors come from sbus |
samelian | dbus |
kb9vqf | Does DBUS ONLY return error strings? |
kb9vqf | Or does it also return an error code? |
samelian | dbus return an QDBusError |
samelian | but i'm not sure that dbus errors are relevant in other context than dbus |
samelian | dbus error code have no meaning in applications |
kb9vqf | My thought is: let the application developer determine what has meaning |
kb9vqf | Give them as much information as possible |
kb9vqf | Even a semi-random error code will aid debugging |
kb9vqf | If it is unique |
kb9vqf | The application can always ignore the error code |
samelian | yes, of course |
kb9vqf | Otherwise we start telling app developers what they can and cannot use, and that sounds very familiar from KDE4 |
kb9vqf | ;-) |
samelian | hehe |
samelian | ok, I will think about int encoding and how to do it useful |
samelian | I can emit directly QDBusError |
samelian | but the insulation from dbus will be compromitted |
samelian | compromised* |
samelian | kb9vqf: you know, qt4 dbus API is very different from qt3 dbus API? |
kb9vqf | Yes |
samelian | ok, in this case I will delegate low level calls to private class |
samelian | will be TClientPrivate_qt4.cpp |
samelian | and TClientPrivate_qt3.cpp |
kb9vqf | OK |
kb9vqf | Get qt3 working, then qt4 |
samelian | of course |
kb9vqf | :) |
samelian | actually i can't test qt4 version atm |
*kb9vqf may have to add the Qt3 DBUS API to TQt | |
kb9vqf | I know at least knetworkmanager uses it |
kb9vqf | It may just be easier to handle it with TQt |
*kb9vqf is not sure ATM | |
samelian | ok, will see later |
kb9vqf | Yup |
samelian | i will isolate anyway dbus api callcs |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: doing alot of work on the website still. |
kb9vqf | OK |
kb9vqf | Just so you know, I really, really hate the light baby blue background ;-) |
kb9vqf | Some other color maybe? |
MutantTurkey | D: which one? |
kb9vqf | The one in the header background |
samelian | bleah, I have a problem with bool method(&result) |
MutantTurkey | I just have it for the purpose of showing what a color would look like. |
kb9vqf | OK; I do prefer white |
kb9vqf | But that can be changed later |
samelian | for things like QString TClient::daemonVersion() |
MutantTurkey | okay I'll show you now |
kb9vqf | samelian: What's the problem? |
samelian | for consistency, i must to use bool TClient::daemonVersion(QString &result) |
samelian | but seems unnatural |
kb9vqf | Hmmm |
kb9vqf | There's another way to handle that |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: okay it is a white background now. |
kb9vqf | Usually you can return a null QString when there's an error |
kb9vqf | That's the way Trinity usually does things anyway |
kb9vqf | Note that a null QString is NOT an empty QString |
samelian | but null qstring can meaning that there is no value |
samelian | yes, know |
kb9vqf | See above ;-) |
samelian | "" is empty |
kb9vqf | Right |
kb9vqf | There's your "no value" string |
samelian | QString::null i guess is null |
kb9vqf | Or QString() |
kb9vqf | I vastly prefer QString() |
samelian | but the consistency will be affected anyway |
kb9vqf | No, not really |
samelian | i will must to do |
kb9vqf | Trinity has always done this :) |
samelian | QString result = client->daemonVersion() |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Much better, thanks! |
samelian | if(result.isNull()) qWarning("we have a problem") |
kb9vqf | Right |
kb9vqf | If you look through the code that type of if() is all over the place |
kb9vqf | isNull means there is no sane answer available |
samelian | but, i have another situation |
samelian | client->hasHibernate() |
samelian | which is bool |
samelian | false ca meaning error or not support for hibernate |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Now just add in the release sidebar on the right. It's looking much better than before! |
kb9vqf | samelian: Use an int |
kb9vqf | -1 being the error |
kb9vqf | 0 is false |
kb9vqf | 1 is ture |
kb9vqf | true |
samelian | hmm, too many inconsistencies |
kb9vqf | Once again that's how Trinity code usually handles things |
samelian | if(isnull), if(-1), if(method()) |
kb9vqf | Passing by reference is not used often |
kb9vqf | technically -1 should always be the error case |
kb9vqf | Never 0 |
kb9vqf | So you have if(isnull), if(<0) |
kb9vqf | Those are the two error cases |
kb9vqf | Bool is usually not returned |
kb9vqf | usually it is only an int return value for error |
kb9vqf | There are too many problems with bool |
samelian | this is for plain C, but i'm not sure about C++ |
kb9vqf | C++ still uses int return values for errors |
kb9vqf | A defacto Linux standard is that a negative return is an error |
kb9vqf | The only problem is that you cannot have a negative QString |
kb9vqf | Only a Null one :-) |
samelian | yes |
samelian | and isNull is bool type |
kb9vqf | Unfortuantely that inconsistency runs deep within Qt |
kb9vqf | No way to change it |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: yes i need to figure that out after dinner. |
MutantTurkey | also the side bar will include links and such to web pages |
kb9vqf | Sounds good MutantTurkey |
samelian | is pretty bad to use something like if(1 == client->hasHibernate()) |
samelian | the programmers will assume that hasHibernate is bool |
samelian | i will made a big mistake if will use if(hasHibernate()) |
samelian | because error will treated as true |
kb9vqf | Will it? |
samelian | they will* |
*kb9vqf goes to look up implicit bool conversion | |
MutantTurkey | I am also renaming and reorginizing the structure. |
kb9vqf | samelian: Seems you are correct |
*kb9vqf is not sure how to handle that | |
*samelian hate to made this kind of design decisions :) | |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: everything is a php file and i am consolidating stuff also. one question, is the mailing list generated in php? |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: No |
MutantTurkey | :O |
kb9vqf | ezmlm |
kb9vqf | Old script-type stuff |
MutantTurkey | ezmlm? okay well how could we include the header and footer then? |
kb9vqf | I'll have to work on the integration from this end |
kb9vqf | It's a very complicated system |
MutantTurkey | okay. they are just in media/header.php and media/footer.php for them. |
kb9vqf | Sounds good |
MutantTurkey | yep. |
MutantTurkey | I need to get screenshots also, if someone has ones they'd like me to use. |
kb9vqf | Same with the SVN patches, etc. |
kb9vqf | Well, there are the two from the Ubuntu CDs |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: yeah, :/ (which by the way should be reverse sorted) |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: are those good to use? |
kb9vqf | Go ahead |
MutantTurkey | okay |
kb9vqf | I can make some Debian ones as well |
MutantTurkey | I'll make thumbnails and such in a while. |
kb9vqf | Sometime.... :) |
MutantTurkey | the home page is going to be pretty much the 3.5.12 annoucements, a brief introduction links and t he sidebar thing. |
kb9vqf | OK |
MutantTurkey | okay great. I'm off to eat dinner. I'll work more after |
kb9vqf | ttyl |
kb9vqf | samelian: For simple queries such as hasHibernate just return false if there was an error |
kb9vqf | If such a simple query failed then we cannot assume a complex function like hibernate will work |
kb9vqf | The underlying DBUS failure would be caught somewhere else |
samelian | but the user must be announced that hibernate query is not working, but is not because his machine |
kb9vqf | Then you cannot have a bool return |
kb9vqf | Or anything that looks like a bool |
samelian | maybe libkpower have no rights to read upower dbus |
kb9vqf | Just state: This is an int return |
kb9vqf | In the documentation put a warning that if(hasHibernate) will not work |
kb9vqf | and that if(hasHibernate == 1) is required |
kb9vqf | That's the only way to handle it |
samelian | hehe, we assume that programmer will read the docs carefully |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | We have to |
kb9vqf | You can screw up a lot of things with implicit bool conversion |
kb9vqf | I know! |
kb9vqf | Qt4 locks out implicit bool conversion |
kb9vqf | Just do the same thing in your class |
samelian | maybe is better to use bool method(bool * ok), after all |
kb9vqf | NO |
kb9vqf | See above :) |
kb9vqf | We can prohibit the implicit converson |
*kb9vqf forgot until now | |
kb9vqf | So the compiler will emit an error message, and the programmer will change it to == 1 |
samelian | aha, you want to forbid using if(hasHibernate()) |
kb9vqf | Yes |
samelian | i'm not sure if is possible |
kb9vqf | It is |
kb9vqf | Qt4 does it |
samelian | bool is pretty same as int |
kb9vqf | In qbytearray |
samelian | i will check it |
kb9vqf | Basically you make the bool() operator private |
kb9vqf | You will probably have to make yourself a return type class |
kb9vqf | Make bool() private |
kb9vqf | but allow int() |
kb9vqf | Seems simple enough to me :)( |
samelian | but if() will not try to use int as condition? |
samelian | or I cand define something like this: |
samelian | typedef { Has = 1 } TypeHas |
samelian | TypeHas hasHibernate() |
kb9vqf | Actually, if will try to use the int for condition only when if(return == 1) is used |
samelian | i see |
kb9vqf | When if runs into the private bool it will halt the compilation |
samelian | ok, I will try to forbid bool conversion |
kb9vqf | That should do it :) |
samelian | the inconsistency remain with int enumerateDevices(deviceList) |
kb9vqf | How so? |
samelian | is not the same with hasHibernate() |
samelian | also, we have double voltage() |
kb9vqf | voltage() cannot be negative |
kb9vqf | That's easy :) |
samelian | but power() can |
samelian | charge/uncharge |
kb9vqf | Hmm |
*kb9vqf doesn't like that | |
samelian | charge are positive, uncharge negative |
kb9vqf | I know, but... |
kb9vqf | The assumption is negative values are errors |
samelian | yes, but in this case is a valid value |
kb9vqf | How's this: |
kb9vqf | We have a special return class |
kb9vqf | It contains both the value, and an error code and error string |
kb9vqf | Maybe it even has the convenience function success() |
kb9vqf | so you return TDBUSError |
kb9vqf | the application does if(tdbe.success()) |
kb9vqf | so you return TDBUSReturn |
kb9vqf | sorry |
kb9vqf | the application does if(tdbr.success()) |
kb9vqf | tdbr.value |
kb9vqf | Better yet, the implicit int() operator returns the value |
kb9vqf | Just a thought |
samelian | and value must be overloaded |
kb9vqf | Yes |
samelian | int value() |
samelian | double value() |
kb9vqf | Well, that won't work |
kb9vqf | hang on |
kb9vqf | T value |
kb9vqf | type |
kb9vqf | so KDBUSReturn<float> |
kb9vqf | or KDBUSReturn<int> |
kb9vqf | etc. |
kb9vqf | then T value() returns the value |
samelian | but what about KDBUSReturn<QValueList<TDevices> > value ? :) |
kb9vqf | That's OK |
kb9vqf | Just a but ugly |
samelian | we enter to template hell :) |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | But we've been through most of the other "solutions" |
kb9vqf | It's either consistent or template hell :) |
kb9vqf | inconsistent, rather |
samelian | so, we must choose something unnatural, but consistent |
kb9vqf | yes |
kb9vqf | and for most things consistent is OK |
samelian | like bool hasHibernate(QString &result) |
samelian | sorry |
samelian | bool hasHibernate(bool &result) |
kb9vqf | I HATE that reference to bool |
kb9vqf | I can see all kinds of nastiness |
kb9vqf | hard to trace problems, etc. |
kb9vqf | Segfaults |
kb9vqf | :-P |
samelian | maybe for pointers |
samelian | references are pretty easy to trace |
kb9vqf | OK, here's the naieve programmer's take on that |
kb9vqf | : |
kb9vqf | return hasHibernate(bool error); |
kb9vqf | Spot the problem? |
samelian | this is pretty weird call |
kb9vqf | Hint: it'll crash badly :) |
kb9vqf | Well, my thought is this: |
kb9vqf | The application developer may just ignore the error |
kb9vqf | Not want to deal with it |
kb9vqf | But the function DEMANDS a reference |
kb9vqf | So the easiest way to deal with that demand is the call I posted |
kb9vqf | But it'll crash or not compile, depending on the exact C compiler |
samelian | but this call is completely useless |
samelian | return hasHibernate(bool error); |
samelian | because hasHibenate is defined like this |
kb9vqf | OK, wait |
kb9vqf | I think I flipped the two |
samelian | bool hasHibernate( bool &result ) |
kb9vqf | Your definition may work |
kb9vqf | But it's unnatural |
samelian | yes, as i said :) |
kb9vqf | I expect hasHibernate to tell me if it can hibernate, not if there was an error |
samelian | but is the single easy and consistent option |
kb9vqf | I can see lots of confusion as a result |
samelian | yes, you right |
kb9vqf | Let's go with the template return type |
kb9vqf | Final decision :) |
samelian | bleah, is really ugly :) |
kb9vqf | At least that one will throw compilation errors instead of malfunctioning |
samelian | like this KDBUSReturn<QValueList<TDevices> > |
kb9vqf | I've seen that |
kb9vqf | In kdepim |
samelian | and kdepim is very unstable |
kb9vqf | You can make it prettier like this: |
samelian | and very hard to trace segfault |
*Borg^Queen has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | typedef KDBUSDeviceListReturn KDBUSReturn<QValueList<TDevices>> |
samelian | i think >> will not work |
samelian | >> is not shift? |
kb9vqf | You can nest templates |
samelian | must be > > |
samelian | with space between > |
kb9vqf | Yes of course |
*kb9vqf didn't hit the spacebar hard enough | |
kb9vqf | It's even harder to trace a logic error |
kb9vqf | IMHO |
kb9vqf | If you expect hasHibernate to return whether something can hibernate |
kb9vqf | and it returns an error status instead |
samelian | yes |
kb9vqf | At least with the segfault you get a backtrace |
samelian | then bool hasHibernate(bool *ok) |
Borg^Queen | hello humans, AIs and others |
samelian | or |
kb9vqf | And there's my bad call I posted above |
samelian | bool hasHibernate(bool *ok = NULL) |
kb9vqf | ICK ICK ICK |
samelian | if ok is null, i will return no error |
kb9vqf | Instant segfault :) |
samelian | npe |
samelian | i will check it |
kb9vqf | Oh wait, you changed the reference |
MutantTurkey | Borg^Queen: o/ |
kb9vqf | to a pointer |
samelian | if is null, no error |
kb9vqf | Hmm |
kb9vqf | I still see this bad code as a first attempt: |
kb9vqf | bool * error; |
kb9vqf | bool canHibernate = hasHibernate(error);; |
kb9vqf | bool canHibernate = hasHibernate(&error); |
kb9vqf | I don't know |
samelian | the elegant solution can be try { bool hibernate = hasHibernate() } catch(...) { qWarning("we have a problem") } |
samelian | but qt do not use exceptions :| |
kb9vqf | Right |
kb9vqf | I still like the templates |
kb9vqf | Seems to be consistant and flexible |
kb9vqf | Honestly there's much less chance of a stray segfault when passing objects around |
kb9vqf | References and pointers have their place, but when the return type is so small I think they are more trouble than they are worth |
samelian | you proposed a pretty good solution like if(success()) |
samelian | or if(error()) |
kb9vqf | Now think of multithreading though |
kb9vqf | The operation should be atomic |
kb9vqf | And those are not |
samelian | yes, is not |
kb9vqf | I vote for templates and typedefs |
kb9vqf | It becomes very simple then |
samelian | ok, i'm without good solution, so, I agree with you :) |
kb9vqf | :) |
*kb9vqf goes back to troubleshooting mouse events | |
*aledec has joined #trinity-desktop | |
*aledec has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | samelian: http://96.245.17.6/installation.php :) got it working nicely |
MutantTurkey | it wraps lines (in this case not so well because it wraps based on words and the url is parsed as one word |
kb9vqf | That background color is much nicer than the blue as well ;-) |
MutantTurkey | agreed. |
MutantTurkey | again, that is all for later. |
Borg^Queen | MutantTurkey: cute nick |
Borg^Queen | brb |
MutantTurkey | Borg^Queen: thank you ma'am |
Borg^Queen | :) |
MutantTurkey | :p |
*samelian forgot how to create a C++ template :) | |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: does Trinity have any color scheme associated with it? i mean ubuntu has shit brown, fedora i think red. etc |
kb9vqf | Not right now |
kb9vqf | Other than the blue in the logo |
kb9vqf | And white |
MutantTurkey | okay |
samelian | kb9vqf: help me a little with template, if you can |
samelian | template<class T> |
samelian | class TValue { |
samelian | public: |
samelian | TValue(){} |
samelian | T &operator() { return m_value; } |
samelian | int error() const { return m_error; } |
samelian | QString errorString() { return m_errorString; } |
samelian | private: |
samelian | T m_value; |
samelian | int m_error; |
samelian | QString m_errorString; |
samelian | }; |
samelian | I think my operator() is not well defined |
samelian | the compiller cry |
samelian | UPower_TValue.h:38: error: function definition does not declare parameters |
kb9vqf | Which one is line 38? |
*TokRa has joined #trinity-desktop | |
samelian | T &operator() { return m_value; } |
kb9vqf | Well you can't do it that way |
kb9vqf | What are you trying to do with that line? |
kb9vqf | Return the value? |
samelian | reference to m_value |
samelian | for automatic cast |
samelian | i want to do this: |
kb9vqf | Try &T() {return m_value} |
samelian | TValue val = hasHibernate() |
samelian | if(val) qWarning("we have hibernate"); |
samelian | &T() is not working |
samelian | ISO C++ forbids declaration of 'T' with no type |
kb9vqf | What happens without the & |
kb9vqf | So T() {return m_value} |
*kb9vqf does not recall if this can be done with templates | |
samelian | i think this is constructor of T |
kb9vqf | T is the type |
kb9vqf | TValue() is the constructor |
samelian | but it T is class, T() is constructor of class |
kb9vqf | For builtin types you can do bool() {return a_bool} |
kb9vqf | IIRC |
kb9vqf | Hang on |
samelian | QString cast to const char* with operator() |
kb9vqf | const char * is special |
kb9vqf | Trust me :) |
samelian | aha |
kb9vqf | Try operator T () { return m_value; } |
kb9vqf | Or operator &T () { return m_value; } |
kb9vqf | ^^ I don't know if that last one is the correct syntax though |
kb9vqf | The first one should be correct |
kb9vqf | Remember that pass-by-reference can be dangerous |
kb9vqf | You may just want to pass the object itself |
kb9vqf | i.e. a copy |
samelian | for sure, I will not return reference |
MutantTurkey | are there Debian CD images with Trinity pre loaded |
MutantTurkey | or is that only kubuntu |
kb9vqf | Someone was working on a Debian CD but I don't think it's finished |
kb9vqf | See the trinity-devel mailing list archives IIRC |
samelian | kb9vqf: seems that &operator T() { return m_value; } is correct way |
kb9vqf | I was wondering about that |
kb9vqf | OK |
*kb9vqf has not had to do that for a long time | |
MutantTurkey | http://96.245.17.6/installation.php all finished. |
kb9vqf | May I suggest that the header logo say "Trinity Desktop Environment" instead of just "Trinity"? |
kb9vqf | Otherwise, ignoring the missing right hand side box, it looks good! |
kb9vqf | Err..I guess on the installation page there is no right hand side box |
kb9vqf | So it's fine as-is then, execpt the header suggestion :) |
MutantTurkey | D: |
MutantTurkey | well okay with the header, the reason to keep it shorter is A) we already say Trinity Desktop Environment on the home page as the first header B) it scales better. smaller icon = better for all sized monitors because it can scale down without pushing the list of links out of the way. C) the word trinity isn't even needed really, it could just be the icon. |
MutantTurkey | i took alot of time to think about that one. |
kb9vqf | Well, (and this is just a suggestion, as I did NOT take lots of time to think it through): |
kb9vqf | We could say Trinity Desktop Environment on the top and just shorten it to Trinity on the front page |
MutantTurkey | hmmm |
kb9vqf | Also, people may wonder what "Trinity" is just by itself |
kb9vqf | e.g. if Google points them straight at the install page |
MutantTurkey | yes especially since the front page is actually going to start with an image of the desktop, and under neath say "3.5.12 is out!" and list improvements under that |
MutantTurkey | everything else, will be pushed away. |
kb9vqf | Right |
MutantTurkey | working on this one now http://96.245.17.6/installation_lenny.php |
kb9vqf | I like the overall site layout much better |
MutantTurkey | I need a list of mirrors to add to the working around the problem (i assume we have more than one) |
kb9vqf | I'll handle that |
MutantTurkey | okay |
kb9vqf | I have an internal list here that I can insert automatically ;-) |
MutantTurkey | awesome |
kb9vqf | Thanks again for fixing up the site |
kb9vqf | It looks a heap side better |
MutantTurkey | I am really enjoying this tbh. I have been avoiding the web for a long time. |
MutantTurkey | so getting back into it is fun. |
kb9vqf | Great :) |
MutantTurkey | again, people like clean and simple, easy to navigate. that is crucial. Hopefully this will help sort that all out. |
MutantTurkey | if people like the site, they are more likely to take TrinityDE seriously. |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: i am changing all references of your email address to our mailing list page instead. |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: also sorry, i know your AFK. but I am pretty much done work for tonight. I have converted the lenny 301 page and install page so thats good for today. I'll keep working on it probably monday (tomorrow is very very hectic with band practice and church and super bowl (go steelers!) so I won't be able to do much till then) |
*Piki has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Piki | hi |
MutantTurkey | hey Piki |
MutantTurkey | Piki: http://96.245.17.6/ what does the top logo say? |
MutantTurkey | i am getting a weird problem from it |
Piki | it's a KDE gear with a T instead of a K, and it says Trinity next to it |
MutantTurkey | hmmmm. now look at: http://96.245.17.6/media/trinitylogo.png |
MutantTurkey | I am calling that image but only Trinity shows up D: |
MutantTurkey | oh nevermind, It was a CSS issue. |
Piki | Trinity Desktop Environment |
Piki | a bit slow, kvirc isn't allowing me to click links for some reason |
MutantTurkey | kvirc is a bit slow for my liking. |
MutantTurkey | a bit to complicated for just an irc client. |
MutantTurkey | irssi is just easier for me to use. |
Piki | a don't like doing things in a CLI, and a konsole is a bit small for IRC for my liking |
MutantTurkey | yeah |
Piki | much prefer konversation, but our repos are still a dependency mess |
MutantTurkey | pidgin works for me also, because i have google chat as well as AIM and IRC |
MutantTurkey | would a Pidgin to Qt Port be favorable? |
Piki | don't really like the way pidgin does irc |
MutantTurkey | yeah It's a bit meh. |
MutantTurkey | but a Trinity version of pidgin would be nice. Qt lacks a good messanging program right? |
Piki | MutantTurkey: considering how popular pidgin is, i'd say it'd be a good idea |
Piki | kopete |
MutantTurkey | yeah. I've looked at the code base not to bad. |
MutantTurkey | It is a glib and gnome mess though |
Piki | but that requires kde |
MutantTurkey | we'd have to clean it up. |
Piki | i'm using kopete right now, rather nice, but apparently the kde4 version doesn't do irc, and the kde3 version doesn't do file transfer |
MutantTurkey | anyway I've gotta split some buds are coming over. |
Piki | i have it setup from gtalk and aim |
MutantTurkey | we can hack in IRC or something. |
MutantTurkey | I'll be back later. or monday |
Piki | ok |

kb9vqf | No I didn't |
kb9vqf | Thanks for clarifying :) |
Piki | well, how can a couple 5yo's steal a car? |
kb9vqf | I dunno |
kb9vqf | Guy left the car on and in drive? |
kb9vqf | Anyway, getting waaayy off topic here ;-) |
Piki | then how do the girls get the gas? |
kb9vqf | Another Qt4 bug I wonder? |
kb9vqf | Qt automatically grabs the mouse when a mouse button is pressed inside a widget; the widget will continue to receive mouse events until the last mouse button is released. |

*Svedrin has left #trinity-desktop | |
*Strangelv ponders pondering the procticality of forking TDE or even KDE 4 avay from Qt altogether, but lacks sufficiently detailed knowledge. He's also falling asleep. | |
samelian | actually qt is very nice framework |
Strangelv | "Qt3 or Qt4 |
samelian | i like both of them |
Strangelv | Are you working ot TQt? |
samelian | the concepts are pretty similar |
*Strangelv is mostly familiar with people here complaining about how stripped down Qt4 is | |
samelian | nope, only kb9vqf working on tqt |
samelian | my tasks are cmake port and developing upower interface |
Strangelv | "My task is bottlenecked by find out where the art is, and I've been sidetracked by what might qualify as my day job |
edakiri | Strangelv: i pondered that. kb9vqfand someone ( samelian?) said it were clearly infeasible without great manpower. |

kb9vqf | Nice! |
*field_it has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | I tracked down the popup menu mouse event issue after much hassle and heartache |
kb9vqf | Seems that Qt4 did this: |
kb9vqf | if ((windowType() == Qt::Popup) && rect().contains(pos) && 0) |
kb9vqf | Note the && 0 |
kb9vqf | A nice undocumented change |
kb9vqf | :-P |
kb9vqf | See why I hate Qt4? |
kb9vqf | It took 30 lines of code to fix that |
kb9vqf | In TQt that is |
*K`zan has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: Do you think Nokia is smart enough to keep the Qt4 -> Qt5 change minimal? |
Xu_R | makes me wonder, given the community response to the Qt3 -> Qt4 change |
kb9vqf | Dunno |
kb9vqf | I think it depends on their new cell phones |
kb9vqf | And their requirements |
*kb9vqf does NOT trust Nokia | |
kb9vqf | Not after Qt4 :) |
kb9vqf | On the plus side, we should have a few years to make TQt work with Qt5 |
kb9vqf | If they offer a preview for a while like they did with Qt4 |
kb9vqf | That is waaayyy in the future I hope :) |
Xu_R | that would be a nice future indeed |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: when you mean new cell phones, i'm guessing meego, right? |
kb9vqf | Whatever the latest craze is |
kb9vqf | At some point they will go "Oh no, Qt doesn't support our competitor's latest input gestures" |
kb9vqf | "Let's completely change Qt again!" |
kb9vqf | :-P |
*kb9vqf can be rather cynical | |
kb9vqf | Seriously though, I don't know what the Qt5 trigger will be |
kb9vqf | All I know is that it is likely to happen sometime in the future |
kb9vqf | And it'll probably be based on some tech fad (Qt4 was transparent widgets AFAIK) |
kb9vqf | That and Nokia not wanting to maintain a lot of the Qt3 features |
Xu_R | lol |
Xu_R | it's like they're oblivious to all the community hatred around them. |
same_ | maybe qt will follow linux kernel versioning style :) |
samelian | i mean, will remain qt 4.x.x |
samelian | like kernel 2.6.x |
Xu_R | samelian: the way they're throwing out releases it's only a matter of time before they hit 5.0 |
samelian | will see |
*aledec has joined #trinity-desktop | |
*aledec has joined #trinity-desktop | |
samelian | however, qt4 is over qt3 in networking support |
samelian | also some integrated features like webkit and dbus |
samelian | kb9vqf: what is "&& 0"? |
samelian | seems useless condition |
samelian | because return always false |
samelian | kb9vqf: how we will integrate libkupower to kdelibs? |
samelian | we will create a directory named "backend"? |
Space_Man | <samelian> kb9vqf: what is "&& 0"? |
Space_Man | I agree |
Space_Man | but I'm not much of a coder |
K`zan | Binary and with zero? SWAG :) |
K`zan | Essentially would be setting whatever to zero. |
K`zan | = 0 would make more sense if that is what it is doing... |
K`zan | Ah, one gotta love show off programmers :-). |
*K`zan refuses to ever admit I was ever one of those ;-). | |
*aledec_ has joined #trinity-desktop | |
*aledec_ has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | samelian: exactly |
kb9vqf | They shut down that conditional |
kb9vqf | Without documenting the change or bothering to remove it completely!! |
samelian | hehe |
kb9vqf | kdelibs/tdevices/backend/tupower |
samelian | if you don't pay enough attention, you can miss this kind of changes |
kb9vqf | Oh yes |
kb9vqf | Two days |
kb9vqf | :-P |
samelian | wow |
kb9vqf | It was VERy hard to trace |
kb9vqf | That conditional is buried within the event handler core |
samelian | kb9vqf: why tdevices? |
kb9vqf | Hang on |
kb9vqf | Let's change that to: |
samelian | i think something like this: |
kb9vqf | kdelibs/tcomputer/backend/tupower |
kb9vqf | http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/wiki/bin/view/Developers/TUComputerAPI |
samelian | kdelibs/backends/{upower,udev,networkmanager,sound}, etc |
kb9vqf | OK |
samelian | you agree with me? |
kb9vqf | Well, not really |
kb9vqf | I would like to keep the hardware stuff in its own directory |
kb9vqf | Otherwise kdelibs will become a mess, fast |
samelian | i think backend will be the layer between trinity and 3rd party stuff |
kb9vqf | You'll have to move some other folders around |
kb9vqf | libkrandr, etc. |
kb9vqf | Also, I'm not sure |
kb9vqf | kdelibs itself is one big interface to 3rd party stuff |
kb9vqf | How about kdelibs/hardware/ |
kb9vqf | kdelibs/hardware/backends |
kb9vqf | kdelibs/hardware/frontends |
samelian | depends what meaning "hardware" |
samelian | networkmanager is not hardware |
kb9vqf | Yes it is |
kb9vqf | Well, it interfaces to the network card |
samelian | sort of, but not exactly |
kb9vqf | so kdelibs/devices/backends |
kb9vqf | and kdelibs/devices/frontends |
samelian | so, backends will be direct link to 3rd party stuff |
samelian | and frontend the API for trinity developers, right? |
samelian | so the layers will be:P |
samelian | : |
samelian | application -> frondend -> backend -> 3rd party |
samelian | in upower case will be: |
samelian | kpowersave -> frontend -> backend -> dbus |
samelian | or |
samelian | kpowersave -> frontend -> backend -> dbus -> upower |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | Exactly |
kb9vqf | We'll move libkrandr to devices/frontends |
samelian | sound logical to me |
kb9vqf | Since that library is the public interfaces to XRandR |
samelian | xrandr cannot be accesed via dbus? |
kb9vqf | No |
kb9vqf | Direct Xorg calls only |
samelian | i see |
kb9vqf | It's a very low level API |
kb9vqf | :) |
samelian | ok, not matter |
samelian | for high level developer no matter anyway |
kb9vqf | frontends contains all libraries that are supposed to be used in Trinity applications |
kb9vqf | backends should not be used outside of the frontend librariew |
kb9vqf | libraries |
kb9vqf | It might be a good idea to make the backend classes private |
samelian | sure, because its API can be changed |
kb9vqf | And then friend the frontend libraries |
samelian | hmm, will be complicated |
samelian | we can include something like this: |
samelian | #ifndef BACKEND_DEVELOPER |
kb9vqf | Sure |
kb9vqf | Like the old acknowleding the DBUS API is unstable |
samelian | #error this interface should be used just be backed developers |
samelian | yes |
kb9vqf | Works for me! |
kb9vqf | And we'll just reject applications that set BACKEND_DEVELOPER ;- |
kb9vqf | ;-) |
samelian | hehe |
samelian | yes |
kb9vqf | More Qt4 fun....CoordinateMode::CoordDevice (the default CoordinateMode) is just gone. No replacement, and the Qt4 replacement current functions utilize CoordinateMode::CoordPainter instead. |
Xu_R | o_o |
Xu_R | it's like they threw all this stuff in the trash because it didn't look nice. |
kb9vqf | Hehe |
kb9vqf | Lots of fun breakage in scrolling views because of that |
kb9vqf | I'm reimplementing it as usual in TQt.... |
samelian | sometime I think that maybe is better to enhance Qt3 and that's all |
kb9vqf | No |
kb9vqf | The Qt4 graphics engine is better |
kb9vqf | But has fewer features |
samelian | maybe these enhacements can be backported to qt3 |
kb9vqf | No, not really |
kb9vqf | The graphics engine is a complete rewrite |
samelian | aha, i do not dig so deep |
kb9vqf | I actually have kdesktop, kicker etc. running under Qt4 with Tqt |
kb9vqf | I'm just trying to stamp out the remaining painting problems |
kb9vqf | Believe it or not, over my VNC connection it actually has pretty good performance |
kb9vqf | Comparable to Qt3 over VNC |
Xu_R | nice. |
kb9vqf | So I think the slow bloat is actually in KDE4 itself, not Qt4 |
kb9vqf | Just a hunch :-) |
Xu_R | probably |
samelian | this is my impression too |
samelian | because skype and qt creator are pretty fast |
*kb9vqf is glad he is not alone in that impression | |
kb9vqf | Ahh, KDE4....the ugly stepsister of the KDE series |
kb9vqf | :) |
samelian | haha |
samelian | i do not used it more 10 minutes |
kb9vqf | I struggled with it for a few days |
kb9vqf | Then gave up |
kb9vqf | I wan't getting any work done |
samelian | i hope that more developers wil join to trinity team after we modernize background |
kb9vqf | I hope so too |
kb9vqf | Hence the Qt4 interface |
samelian | i enjoy very much programming upower interface |
kb9vqf | Glad to hear it :) |
kb9vqf | I also enjoyed the krandr interface back when |
kb9vqf | TQt....not so much |
kb9vqf | It's massive |
samelian | hehe |
samelian | massive task become borring |
kb9vqf | Now I need a way to reverse the Qt4 deviceTransform() matrix |
kb9vqf | Of course, being Qt4, the didn't provide an easy way |
kb9vqf | Grrrr |
samelian | i have this impression making cmake |
samelian | copy/paste, copy/paste, .... |
samelian | borring |
kb9vqf | Hehe |
kb9vqf | But quite necessary |
Xu_R | you know, it makes me wonder, did they strip down Qt4 to make the library smaller? O_o |
samelian | yes, it is |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | Smaller and easier for them to maintain |
samelian | qt4 are actually prety well modularized |
Xu_R | ah. |
Xu_R | well, then KDE4 made Qt4 look like crap. |
kb9vqf | Qt4 is a nice library |
samelian | indeed |
kb9vqf | It's just not as powerful as Qt3 was |
kb9vqf | In the core areas |
samelian | i like qt4 because I can write servers with it |
kb9vqf | It's obviously designed for cell phones on the UI end as well |
kb9vqf | So kind of an odd mix |
samelian | without gui legacy |
Xu_R | lol |
Xu_R | i see. |
kb9vqf | The ONLY problem I have with Qt3 is that it is not LGPL |
samelian | few years ago I write an tiff/faxview with qt3 |
samelian | maybe I will revive it |
kb9vqf | TQt port it :) |
samelian | sure, is written in pure qt |
samelian | http://qfaxreader.sourceforge.net/ |
kb9vqf | Neat! |
samelian | kfax was not enough when I used faxes, a century ago :) |
kb9vqf | Hehe |
kb9vqf | The fax macine just....won't....die. |
Xu_R | xD |
samelian | i think I will write some kparts |
samelian | then a shell similar to okular |
kb9vqf | Sometime after TQt for Qt4 is done we will need to replace KHTML's innards with WebKit |
samelian | but will be available for qt4 only, i guess |
kb9vqf | Right |
kb9vqf | That's the main reason for the Qt4 interface actually |
kb9vqf | Is to gain acces to peripheral classes like that |
kb9vqf | They added power in those areas, but removed it in the core |
kb9vqf | :-P |
kb9vqf | Like I said, they seem to have tailored it for their cell phones and apps |
kb9vqf | samelian: OK, I'm getting fed up |
kb9vqf | You have Qt4 experience, right? |
samelian | more or less :) |
kb9vqf | How in the world can I reverse the QPainter device mapping?!?? |
samelian | i wrote few apps with qt4 |
kb9vqf | I need to undo a QTransform that utilized QPainter::deviceTransform() |
kb9vqf | So I need to go from device coordinates to painter coordinates |
samelian | hmm, i do not reach so low level |
kb9vqf | Well, the lower levels is where much of the power is missing |
kb9vqf | That might explain why some developers don't miss Qt3 |
kb9vqf | Just a thought :) |
kb9vqf | I think I may have it... |
kb9vqf | There is a poorly documented inverted() function that MAY do what I need for 2D work only |
kb9vqf | Time will tell :) |

Xu_R | hey MutantTurkey :D |
Xu_R | how's the site design coming along? |
MutantTurkey | well. |
MutantTurkey | actually not at all |
MutantTurkey | I have hit a major roadblock |
MutantTurkey | I cannot figure out how to make a side bar like kb9vqf wanted |
Xu_R | D: |
MutantTurkey | yeah D: |
Xu_R | oh noes... |
MutantTurkey | I am waiting to talk to samelian, who has some css knowledge |
MutantTurkey | you can see the current stuff online at my IP address. |
Xu_R | ping same_ |
MutantTurkey | that is samelian? |
same_ | Xu_R: pong |
MutantTurkey | currently: thttp://96.245.17.6/ |
MutantTurkey | http://96.245.17.6/ |
MutantTurkey | the front page is going to be fully reworked, mostly to show off 3.5.12 and have a screen shot |
MutantTurkey | so a screen should would be welcome |
Xu_R | :D |
MutantTurkey | do you like the design so far/ |
MutantTurkey | ah. that expplains much |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: yes! yes I do! :D |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: hmm... why a sidebar? Is the top not enough? |
MutantTurkey | excellent |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: there are more sub links, unless we should come up with a better place to put them |
MutantTurkey | like, installation notes, CD images, bug tracking, SVN feed, project files, the roadmap nightly builds |
Xu_R | ah. the side bar should be only a short-term solution unless we can make it fit in... because otherwise it kinda makes the site like the old one except with css. |
MutantTurkey | maybe a second sub bar |
MutantTurkey | not at all |
Xu_R | the second sub bar sounds like a good idea. |
MutantTurkey | more of a side bar like, http://archlinux.org |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: OH. I see. That works out then. |
MutantTurkey | yes. |
MutantTurkey | i would like a sub bar |
MutantTurkey | maybe that is a good proposition |
samelian | MutantTurkey: you can do this in two ways |
samelian | position: absolute |
samelian | or floating divs |
MutantTurkey | which do you think is better? |
MutantTurkey | i would like to have it best formatted for all size screens, large and small |
MutantTurkey | that is my major concern |
samelian | the right side can have fixed width |
MutantTurkey | isn't fixed with to be avoided |
samelian | MutantTurkey: http://www.barelyfitz.com/screencast/html-training/css/positioning/ |

MutantTurkey | i have tried to make a sub bar sort of |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: not bad, not bad. :) |
Xu_R | can we keep it to the right side, right under the main bar? |
Xu_R | that way it seems to be in alignment. |
MutantTurkey | i am not sure yet |
MutantTurkey | it is quite ugly right now |
MutantTurkey | but i am going to finish watching this movie i started earlier, then take another crack at it |
Xu_R | good idea, go relax :) |
MutantTurkey | alright ready to get cracking |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: check this out 96.245.17.6` |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: check this out 96.245.17.6 |
MutantTurkey | http://96.245.17.6/index.php |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: in php now? nice. |
MutantTurkey | yes |
MutantTurkey | do you like the look |
MutantTurkey | ? |
Xu_R | yes, indeeed. |
MutantTurkey | i added the sub bar |
Xu_R | the sub bar actually fits like that. good job :) |
MutantTurkey | it is doing a weird problem, where it seems to not go all the way 100% width, but if i put -15px it fits D: |
MutantTurkey | i'll ask samelian about that |
MutantTurkey | but i think its very nice looking |
Xu_R | -15 px lol |
Xu_R | that is strange |
MutantTurkey | yes |
MutantTurkey | i think it is getting pushed by something i cannot figure it out |
MutantTurkey | i'll start looking now |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: fixed it :D 96.245.17.6/ |
MutantTurkey | no more -15px. it should be working well now |
Xu_R | niceee |
MutantTurkey | yes |
MutantTurkey | well. |
MutantTurkey | enough for today :p |
Xu_R | hehe. getting late. |
MutantTurkey | indeed |
MutantTurkey | quite tired |
kb9vqf | Nice job! |
kb9vqf | Can you add a "Screenshots" tab? |
kb9vqf | Tomorrow that is :) |
MutantTurkey | yes sir |
MutantTurkey | trying to convert more of your pages also, I need a full list of all the pages, you said you left some out? |
Xu_R | anyone wanna ping me tmrw like crazy around 1350 telling me to move my lazy butt and finish up trinity rpms? I've been procrastinating for a few days D: |
MutantTurkey | D: |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Well, the other pages are dynamically generated |
kb9vqf | I'll have to deal with those here |
kb9vqf | Mailing lists and such |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: hmmm, but you could easily modify them to add the stylization right? |
kb9vqf | Yes |
MutantTurkey | right makes sense |
MutantTurkey | okay |
kb9vqf | But I can't go sending you the scripts that generate those pages ;-) |
kb9vqf | Sensitive stuff there |
Xu_R | lol oooh, what do we have here? :P |
MutantTurkey | indeed. |
kb9vqf | They're firewalled and on a different machine |
kb9vqf | No hacking allowed :) |
MutantTurkey | also i noticed your SVN patches list is generated fine, but should be reversed. |
Xu_R | xD |
kb9vqf | Yes, you mentioned that earlier |
MutantTurkey | people like to see the most recent events rather than ones in 2008 |
MutantTurkey | oh okay good |
kb9vqf | when you send over the new website files please remind me |
MutantTurkey | right. |
*kb9vqf has a terrible memory | |
MutantTurkey | I've got a todo going |
kb9vqf | Great :) |
MutantTurkey | http://96.245.17.6/TODO.txt |
MutantTurkey | so I'll add that |
kb9vqf | OK |
kb9vqf | I'm going to put up the IRC logs as well at some point |
MutantTurkey | excellent |
MutantTurkey | you log them? |
kb9vqf | That's tbottu's primary function |
MutantTurkey | with tbottu right? |
MutantTurkey | supybot? |
kb9vqf | mozbot |
MutantTurkey | D: |
kb9vqf | So I can do cool things like this |
kb9vqf | But 67 |
kb9vqf | Bug 67 |
tbottu | Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=67 cri, P5, ---, kb9vqf, RESO WORKSFORME, Errors while installing kde 3.5 |
MutantTurkey | use supy bot they are really nice. |
MutantTurkey | oh well |
Xu_R | lol |
MutantTurkey | supy can do stuff like this |
MutantTurkey | !google blah blah blah |
Xu_R | supybot also supports bugzilla, and there's also MeetBot :D |
MutantTurkey | or !wiki blah blah |
kb9vqf | Seems all my design decisions are suspect, hmmm? ;-) |
MutantTurkey | !weather zipcode |
MutantTurkey | !xkcd reference |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: I'm not bringing [lindaemon] in here for you to demonstrate |
kb9vqf | Actually mozbot can do that stuff too |
MutantTurkey | :D |
Xu_R | kb9vqf resents that bot. xD |
kb9vqf | I don't want to allow it too |
kb9vqf | I don't want to allow it to |
Xu_R | lol |
MutantTurkey | one thing that i think you should add is link headers |
kb9vqf | In the USA we have very strict laws |
MutantTurkey | because I'd like to know if the link is suspicious and such? |
kb9vqf | Link headers? |
MutantTurkey | like |
MutantTurkey | for example |
MutantTurkey | look at my link: http://google.com |
MutantTurkey | (09:59:05 PM) phrik: Title: Google (at google.com) |
kb9vqf | Would be nice, BUT: |
kb9vqf | In the USA we have very strict laws |
MutantTurkey | :[ i always found that handy |
MutantTurkey | right... not in PA xD |
kb9vqf | If it looks like my server is going after suspect content I can go to jail |
kb9vqf | In an extreme case |
MutantTurkey | ah |
MutantTurkey | well lets avoid foolishness then and just stick with logging |
kb9vqf | So, I don't want my servers going after outside content :) |
MutantTurkey | word. |
Xu_R | good idea. |
MutantTurkey | anyway, I'm off to bed. more work to be done tomorrow. |
kb9vqf | OK, thanks :) |
MutantTurkey | i'm done class around 12:00 so I should be floating around and such periodically. |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: also, quick question, what web server do you use? |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: does tbottu have a nice alarm function that allows it to ping me annoyingly around 1500? I'm back home by then |
Xu_R | I need to stop procrastinating :P |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: A hardened Apache |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: I don't know :-P |
MutantTurkey | D: apache. |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: /me uses lighttpd ftw lol |
MutantTurkey | apache seems to hate me no matter what i do to it. |
kb9vqf | Hey, stop bashing :D |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: samsies |
Xu_R | :D |
kb9vqf | You just don't know how to configure it :) |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: lighttpd is great, youtue even uses it! |
MutantTurkey | nice and light |
Xu_R | lol |
MutantTurkey | fast and really scalable and deals with traffic well |
Xu_R | let's not gang up on poor kb9vqf now XD |
MutantTurkey | relevent link http://www.lighttpd.net/ |
kb9vqf | Apache is non-negotiable |
kb9vqf | I host lots of websites |
kb9vqf | For many, many hears |
kb9vqf | years that is |
Xu_R | lol |
MutantTurkey | I know, i was just mentioning it. |
kb9vqf | OK |
Xu_R | the experienced love apache :) |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | An old trusted friend |
MutantTurkey | the greatest part about open source, is the different options |
Xu_R | choices :D |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: old trusted friend? my PIII. |
MutantTurkey | that baby is still chuggin along perfectly. |
*kb9vqf has a PII | |
Xu_R | XD |
kb9vqf | Of course I tend to use my 4 core Opteron instead :) |
Xu_R | woah, I beat all of you then? |
Xu_R | I have a pentium that still boots into win98 xD |
MutantTurkey | D: 4 core opteron |
MutantTurkey | sounds magical |
Xu_R | that i need to throw away...sooner...or...later (parents are starting to complain) |
kb9vqf | Does having a 486SX chip laying around count? :-P |
MutantTurkey | i have a intel atom ._. |
MutantTurkey | the joke of the CPU world. |
Xu_R | true that. |
kb9vqf | yuck |
kb9vqf | Upgrade my man! |
MutantTurkey | @30W Peak i don't complain though. |
kb9vqf | I guess |
kb9vqf | :-P |
Xu_R | wow. |
MutantTurkey | exactly |
Xu_R | lol. |
MutantTurkey | i figure i could run 10 boxes for the same as a regular box. |
kb9vqf | Yeah, but nothing beats an Opteron for raw FLOPS |
MutantTurkey | i mean the only reason it is 30 not around 20ish is because i have a hard drive finally, used to use a CF (slot on board) as my main board |
MutantTurkey | some of those OMAP boards are coming really close |
MutantTurkey | well, not a single one, but at 5W they are pretty powerful. |
kb9vqf | Yes, FLOPS/Watt the're great |
MutantTurkey | mhm :D |
MutantTurkey | intel atom has very low computational power |
MutantTurkey | it does very little |
kb9vqf | But to make an equivalent machine would take a warehouse full :-) |
kb9vqf | And uses very little power |
kb9vqf | I dunno |
kb9vqf | I have a Via fanless |
kb9vqf | Never could get it to do very much |
MutantTurkey | via is way better |
MutantTurkey | ARM is where it is at |
kb9vqf | Hey, maybe we need to see about building Trinity on ARM |
kb9vqf | :) |
MutantTurkey | this thing is a great server though! |
kb9vqf | For basic tasks I'm sure |
MutantTurkey | yes. |
kb9vqf | Try hosting QuickBuild |
Xu_R | hm... Trinity on ARM. |
kb9vqf | ;-) |
MutantTurkey | home media server it is wonderful |
MutantTurkey | what is quickbuild? |
kb9vqf | http://quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/ |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: kb9vqf's version of launchpad |
kb9vqf | Big power-hungry build farm |
MutantTurkey | D: |
*Xu_R shakes head at power-hungry | |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: yeah the trinity website is quite slow sometimes. |
kb9vqf | Like I said it's under a lot of load |
kb9vqf | Lots of users |
MutantTurkey | really? I am suprised but glad |
MutantTurkey | you use one server for many domains though, correct? |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | But Trinity is by far the largest bandwidth hog |
MutantTurkey | well that is excellent news |
Xu_R | damn. getting more and more attention everyday |
kb9vqf | The Wiki stats show some of that |
kb9vqf | Thousands of hits |
MutantTurkey | per day? |
kb9vqf | Per month I think |
Xu_R | it's even attracted the attention on opensuse-kde3 and opensuse-kde (for kde4)... so we're getting there. |
MutantTurkey | that is good |
kb9vqf | But those stats are per page |
kb9vqf | :) |
MutantTurkey | :) righ |
Xu_R | however, I'm just going to put this out there that fedora-kde is ignoring this D: |
kb9vqf | I'm sure |
kb9vqf | Debian isn't too happy either |
MutantTurkey | well then designing a fast, quick website is great. |
kb9vqf | Because of the binary compatibility problem |
MutantTurkey | whats the problem? |
Xu_R | well, maybe if Debian helped us a bit, then it could be better. |
MutantTurkey | and gah I really need to go to bed. |
kb9vqf | I tend to break binary compatibility with each new release |
Xu_R | the binary compat is a pain in the butt |
MutantTurkey | night all. |
kb9vqf | Right |
Xu_R | nite MutantTurkey |
kb9vqf | If we do that the project stalls and dies |
*Xu_R sighs | |
kb9vqf | Oh well |
Xu_R | we're walking a fine thread here. |
kb9vqf | I don't understand the fuss personally |
Xu_R | neither do i. |
kb9vqf | So you rebuild the packge |
kb9vqf | Big deal |
Xu_R | yea. |
Xu_R | according to #fedora-kde (lemme get logs...) |
Xu_R | "mainly because you cannot install kde4 and kde3 on the same machine, and that we can't use /opt" |
kb9vqf | Hmm |
kb9vqf | Why can't they use /opt??!?!? |
Xu_R | FHS packaging guidelines |
kb9vqf | Fun |
kb9vqf | So I can't create a Gnome app named kate |
Xu_R | no major distro can /opt unless it is out of the main distro |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: nope D: |
kb9vqf | Because it will step on KDE |
kb9vqf | Yuch |
kb9vqf | That sounds like a nightmare |
Xu_R | yea. that's why KDE3 isn't in openSUSE repositories (it's in a subproject outside the main) |
kb9vqf | Kind of like a giant polluted namespace |
Xu_R | exactly. |
*kb9vqf shakes his head | |
kb9vqf | I thought Linux was about flexibility and good design |
Xu_R | Mandriva tried to do both, but then they ended up crashing with each other and making 2008.1 a failure-ish. |
kb9vqf | That sounds like BAD design |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: makes me wonder, who made up these rules?! .-. |
kb9vqf | KDE e.V? |
kb9vqf | j/k |
Xu_R | LOL, that'd be terrible |
Xu_R | hmm... |
Xu_R | oh, wait. the major distros. |
kb9vqf | Actually, I thought (once upon a time) /opt was recommended |
Xu_R | for local software that the user compiles himself/herself |
*kb9vqf wishes that he had the guidelines handy | |
Xu_R | that ... I forget the rest |
Xu_R | I know it's like /usr/local, but for special purposes... |
kb9vqf | http://www.linuxtopia.org/online_books/linux_beginner_books/linux_filesystem/opt.html |
kb9vqf | Third party software |
Xu_R | hey, I just opened that! XD |
Xu_R | ah, right. |
Xu_R | when they include it as part of the main repositories |
Xu_R | they consider that default installation. |
kb9vqf | Huh? |
Xu_R | (bah packaging rules) |
kb9vqf | Default is default |
kb9vqf | Not available |
kb9vqf | Oh well |
*kb9vqf doesn't really care | |
kb9vqf | If I wanted to then I could make a distribution that prevents KDE4 |
Xu_R | yea... it's a loop of crap that ends up with crap. :P |
*kb9vqf gets and evil grin | |
Xu_R | hehehe |
kb9vqf | Distro rule #1: No default widgets over <x> size |
Xu_R | LOL |
kb9vqf | If it's big enough to be pressed with a big fat greasy finger then it's too big to be used on a desktop |
kb9vqf | :-P |
Xu_R | XD |
Xu_R | lmao |
Xu_R | this already sounds like a perfect nokia phone. xD |
kb9vqf | Rule #2: If you have to go more than three levels deep to access a function your software is banned |
kb9vqf | :) |
*Xu_R is roflmao'ing atm.... | |
kb9vqf | Good, good |
Xu_R | lol! |
*kb9vqf needs to get back to work | |
kb9vqf | And stop the comedy show |
Xu_R | okees. although it's 2220, it's kinda late :-\ |
kb9vqf | Yeah |
kb9vqf | gn |
Xu_R | don't worry, I gotta finish hw too. :P |
Xu_R | nite :) |

Revan199 | iconv -f utf-8 -t koi8-r - PROFIT |
kb9vqf | ?? |
Revan199 | kb9vqf: I'm using KOI8-R encoding in IRC (exactly, XMPP transport do) |
kb9vqf | Oh, OK |
Revan199 | and toxic_devil wrote his message in UTF-8 |
kb9vqf | Just wanted to make sure you weren't a spam bot or something :) |
Revan199 | kb9vqf: ah =) |
Revan199 | 3.5.1210/03/2010 :o |
kb9vqf | What's wrong with that? |
kb9vqf | We're on an approximately 6 month long release cycle |
kb9vqf | It may need to be lengthened some IMHO |
kb9vqf | To ensure a high quality release |
Revan199 | it like propietary model %( |
Revan199 | %)* |
kb9vqf | ? |
Revan199 | also interested why Trinity 3* |
Revan199 | why not 1.5.12? |
kb9vqf | You think the releases are too fast? |
kb9vqf | 3.* is just to continue the KDE series numbers |
kb9vqf | Believe it or not a lot of code checks for >3.5 |
kb9vqf | >=3.5.x that is |
kb9vqf | Also, users would get confused if we switched from version 3 to version 1 |
*kb9vqf is interested in your opinion of the release cycle though | |
Revan199 | kb9vqf: maybe one month? |
kb9vqf | There is no way we can generate releases that often without introducing major bugs at each release |
kb9vqf | Or allowing the software to stagnate |
Revan199 | 2 months? |
kb9vqf | Still very tight |
kb9vqf | It usually takes me 2 months just to build the Ubuntu and Debian packages |
kb9vqf | Lots of software |
kb9vqf | Lots of places where things can break |
kb9vqf | We need to make each release ultra stable |
kb9vqf | To differentiate this project from KDE |
kb9vqf | IMO |
kb9vqf | Otherwise we will experience the same backlash |
kb9vqf | "Trinity DE ate my cat and now I love Gnome instead" ;-) |
Revan199 | kb9vqf: what? |
kb9vqf | If users encounter bugs they tend to switch to a more stable desktop |
kb9vqf | That's my experience |
kb9vqf | If we shorten the release cycle too much we will introduce lots of bugs |
kb9vqf | Simply due to the fact that no testing can occur within that short of a time frame |
samelian | we can release maintenance releases |
kb9vqf | Yes |
Revan199 | http://translate.google.ru/translate?js=n&prev=_t&hl=ru&ie=UTF-8&layout=2&eotf=1&sl=ru&tl=en&u=http%3A%2F%2Flinuxforum.ru%2Fviewtopic.php%3Fid%3D6838 my opinion (9/22/2010) about Trinity |
kb9vqf | Those I could see being released much faster |
kb9vqf | Revan199: Thanks |
kb9vqf | Also, there is a very good example of why a fast release cycle is bad |
kb9vqf | Those Ubuntu icos snuck in |
kb9vqf | *icons |
kb9vqf | They are NOT supposed to be there |
kb9vqf | But they were not caught until after the release was already made |
kb9vqf | I was rushing with the Debian packages |
kb9vqf | And it shows :-( |
kb9vqf | I would really like someone else to take over Debian packaging |
Revan199 | do you know about Pardus Corporate2? |
Revan199 | not me :-D |
kb9vqf | :) |
kb9vqf | I have not used it |
Revan199 | my Mobile AMD Athlon 64 3400+ can't |
kb9vqf | You can use QuickBuild |
kb9vqf | :) |
*kb9vqf digresses | |
kb9vqf | I did hear about Pardus on the mailing list |
Revan199 | 3 hours for kernel |
kb9vqf | I just need someone to upload packages to the build system |
Revan199 | I think that there is a good idea to cooperate with them |
kb9vqf | Maintain the packaging, etc. |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | They use Trinity, correct? |
Revan199 | nope |
kb9vqf | Hmmm |
Revan199 | they use KDE3 with patches |
Revan199 | own patches |
kb9vqf | Trinity contains a lot of patches from various distros |
kb9vqf | I would not mind incorporating theoirs |
kb9vqf | *theirs |
kb9vqf | However, patching may not be straightforward any more |
kb9vqf | The Trinity codebase has already diverged significantly from KDE3.5.10 |
kb9vqf | Trinity has features that are not available in any other KDE3 maintinance series |
kb9vqf | Functionality has been moved into core libraries |
kb9vqf | new core libraries that is |
kb9vqf | I am tempted to make the next release 3.5.6 |
kb9vqf | To emphasize the API changes |
kb9vqf | revan199: If I could offload Debian/Ubuntu packaging to another group I would be willing to shorten the release cycle some |
kb9vqf | I don't know if you know of anyone who might want to take over :) |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: you mean 3.6 :P |
kb9vqf | Yes I do |
kb9vqf | Sorry |
kb9vqf | 3.6.0 |
Revan199 | kb9vqf: I don't |
kb9vqf | OK |
kb9vqf | Just thought I'd ask |
kb9vqf | :) |
Revan199 | kb9vqf: maybe, someone in debian-kde? |
kb9vqf | They don't like my API/ABI changes from release to release |
kb9vqf | But without them the project will die |
kb9vqf | Linux changes |
kb9vqf | And Trinity must change as well |
kb9vqf | Maybe after 3.6.0 they will look at it again |
kb9vqf | But we have a lot of work to do before we can declare kdelibs as stable and unchanging |
Revan199 | what TDE thinks about HAL? =) |
kb9vqf | We want HAL gone! |
kb9vqf | samelian is working on a nice replacement |
kb9vqf | It will eventually follow this |
kb9vqf | http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/wiki/bin/save/Developers/KPowerAPI |
Revan199 | Bad Request: GET denied for save |
kb9vqf | This is one reason we can't stabilize the kdelibs API yet :) |
*Xu_R kicks HAL out of the installation with a pointy boot | |
kb9vqf | http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/wiki/Developers/KPowerAPI |
kb9vqf | Wrong URL, sorry |
*kb9vqf hates Firefox autocomplete from time to time | |
Xu_R | hehe |
kb9vqf | Somehow Firefox thinks I saved the page more than I viewed it (???) |
Xu_R | lol |
kb9vqf | Honestly I'm thinking we need to block the next release on these two items: |
kb9vqf | 1. CMake |
kb9vqf | 2. HAL |
kb9vqf | samelian ^^ |
kb9vqf | Automake is a big, big problem |
kb9vqf | And HAL is not available anymore on several distros |
samelian | i think cmake will not be stable for next few months |
samelian | and hal replacement is pretty big change too |
kb9vqf | Yes, but I don't want to release yet another buggy release |
*kb9vqf is not sure | |
kb9vqf | All I know is that Trinity won't even build under Ubuntu without CMake |
kb9vqf | And Gentoo, and RedHat |
kb9vqf | :-P |
kb9vqf | We have to block on CMake |
kb9vqf | HAL is not as important as CMake is |
Revan199 | kb9vqf: what the problem with CMake and Ubuntu? |
kb9vqf | Actually it's a problem with Automake and Ubuntu |
kb9vqf | CMake works just fine under Ubuntu |
kb9vqf | But Trinity does not have full support for CMake yet |
kb9vqf | I think I will have to wait for full CMake support before I can release the next version of Trinity |
kb9vqf | Which means that I will probably be helping with that :-P |
*kb9vqf does not look forward to it | |
*Revan199 has left #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | samelian ^^ |
kb9vqf | You may have to give me a crash course in CMake in the next few weeks |
kb9vqf | :) |
kb9vqf | Even better, could you put your porting process on the Wiki? |
samelian | sure |
kb9vqf | Step-by-step instructions for taking the Automake file and creating a CMake file from it? |
kb9vqf | Thanks :) |

toxic_devil | hi all |
kb9vqf | hello |
kb9vqf | Any new programmers to help with CMake? ;-) |
toxic_devil | kb9vqf: to you no one came? "((( |
kb9vqf | I did not see anyone |
kb9vqf | Or they did not announce themselves |
toxic_devil | kb9vqf: I spoke yesterday with many programmers, but probably not enough ((( |
kb9vqf | OK |
*kb9vqf will wait patiently | |
kb9vqf | samelian is supposed to be putting a general Automake-to-CMake porting guide on the Wiki |
kb9vqf | That may help some |
kb9vqf | I wonder where MutantTurkey ran off to? |
kb9vqf | The new website may help as well ;-) |
*eldarion has joined #trinity-desktop | |
toxic_devil | kb9vqf: hm |
toxic_devil | kb9vqf: I try to do anything, but it does not work ((( |
kb9vqf | ?? |
toxic_devil | kb9vqf: They tell me that I need to learn to program ((( |
kb9vqf | Oh, OK :-P |
toxic_devil | kb9vqf: I never learn this (( |
kb9vqf | I know that KDE4 itself is also very short on developers |
kb9vqf | I wonder if this is just a result of the bad global economy |
kb9vqf | People don't have as much spare time any more |
toxic_devil | kb9vqf: is not the problem |
kb9vqf | I was speaking in general terms, not just about you ;-) |
kb9vqf | Sorry |
kb9vqf | toxic_devil: You know, CMake porting is supposed to be somewhat easy |
kb9vqf | Not like programming |
kb9vqf | When samelian gets the Wiki page up maybe you can look at it? |
kb9vqf | I don't know if you have the time though |
toxic_devil | kb9vqf: I will be one of the first who will see it |
kb9vqf | OK |
kb9vqf | Sounds great! |
kb9vqf | :) |
Piki | seems like everyone who mentions an image is trying to send me that image... kinda wandering why? |
kb9vqf | ? |
samelian | kb9vqf: as you noticed, my english is not very well, so my cmake documentation will be like a tutorial |
kb9vqf | That's perfect |
kb9vqf | I can clean up the English |
kb9vqf | But I don't know how to port to CMake myself |
kb9vqf | That's why you have to write the basic process first |
samelian | i create some macros which make this process really easy |
kb9vqf | Even better :) |
toxic_devil | samelian: hi |
samelian | I started the article |
samelian | http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/wiki/bin/view/Developers/CMakeConversionProcess |
Piki | kb9vqf: every time i see mention of an image in irc, i seem to get a DCC send request from that person for that image |
kb9vqf | Piki: On this channel or others? |
samelian | now I will add basic usage of these macros, syntax and formatting rules |
*kb9vqf wants to know if he set something up wrong...again.... | |
Piki | kb9vqf: every channel |
kb9vqf | Piki: Konversation or all clients |
kb9vqf | ? |
Piki | kb9vqf: kvirc, haven't gotten konversation fixed yet |
kb9vqf | OK, just wanted to make sure it wasn't my problem ;-) |
*kb9vqf has not gotten any DCC requests | |
Piki | kb9vqf: it's mostly this channel, nobody ever visits #arklinux-devel, and #arklinux is slow, but both #arklinux and this channel do it when i see an image |
Piki | i don't think there's a way to set a channel to do that anyway ;-) |
Piki | and the send requests aren't from tbottu |
kb9vqf | No, I don't think so either |
kb9vqf | Strange |
Piki | but from the user that mentions the user |
kb9vqf | I wonder if it is a kvirc issue or not |
kb9vqf | Probably not though |
Piki | and it isn't the same nick all the time, just whoever mentions the image |
kb9vqf | DCC requests are sender-initiated IIRC |
kb9vqf | Someone may have a buggy client |
samelian | argh... I hate wiki :) |
kb9vqf | That's not good :( |
Piki | kb9vqf: i doubt it's kivrc, this didn't happen a couple weeks ago when i last reinstalled ark |
samelian | it's too hard to formatiing |
samelian | kb9vqf: I will post my tutorial on forum |
kb9vqf | What are you trying to do? |
samelian | right now i want to paste a code |
kb9vqf | And there are no code blocks |
kb9vqf | I wish FOSWiki would fix that |
samelian | ah, nice, I will use plain wiki markers |
kb9vqf | There you go :) |
kb9vqf | I just found that <verbatim> is supposed to work; that might be what you are using? |
kb9vqf | http://www.lavrsen.dk/foswiki/bin/view/System/TextFormattingRules |
samelian | wait, I will try |
samelian | seems ok |
kb9vqf | Hmm, my rules are different |
kb9vqf | http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/wiki/bin/view/System/TextFormattingRules |
kb9vqf | I think I am missing the code extension |
*kb9vqf goes to check | |
samelian | kb9vqf: the wiki is a pain in the ass :) |
kb9vqf | Working on it; hang on |
samelian | eating my </verbatim> markers |
kb9vqf | Ok, the wiki is gaining a lot of features very shortly |
kb9vqf | Including talk pages :) |
kb9vqf | And MediWiki syntax support |
samelian | nice |
*Strangelv has joined #trinity-desktop | |
samelian | I think we need two distinct articles |
samelian | how to build trinity using cmake |
samelian | and how to port automake to cmake |
samelian | Xu_R: ping |
kb9vqf | Yes, I agree |
kb9vqf | Two separate articles |
*TokRa has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | samelian: Ues this for the second article: http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/wiki/bin/view/Developers/HowToBuildTrinityWithCMake |
kb9vqf | *Use |
kb9vqf | Also, if you like MediWiki syntax you can try this: http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/wiki/bin/view/System/EditSyntaxPlugin |
Piki | kb9vqf: what are we doing using a wiki meant for medical work ;-) |
kb9vqf | Hehe |
kb9vqf | It's actually quite powerful |
Piki | kb9vqf: can't say i've heard of it, but at some point if it is really that powerful, i may do a test instal |
kb9vqf | FOSWiki? |
Piki | mediwiki |
kb9vqf | MediaWiki |
Piki | and perhaps foswiki, but never liked the FOSwiki ui |
kb9vqf | I was referring to FOSWiki being quite powerful ;-) |
kb9vqf | MediaWiki does have some drawbacks IIRC |
Piki | kb9vqf: hmm? |
kb9vqf | I don't remember what they are right now ;-) |
kb9vqf | Sorry |
kb9vqf | My research into Wikis was done a long time ago |
*samelian hate html WYSIWYG | |
Piki | kb9vqf: i've not used many wikis, but with the few i tried, i definitely like mediawiki best |
kb9vqf | I have heard that from a few people now |
Piki | samelian: have you tried CKEditor? or are you designing a new page at home? |
samelian | CKEditor is bad as any other javascript WYSIWYG editor :) |
Piki | kb9vqf: i'll have to try a bunch of wikis at some point, see what i would like the best, just not much time, and trying to use today to relax |
Piki | samelian: it's not too bad, but i don't like html WYSIWYG eithre |
Piki | CKEditor is one of the few ones that are "ok" |
Piki | kb9vqf: wikipedia has a comparison of wiki software, if you want to look at it |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | That's what I used to select FOSWiki :) |
kb9vqf | BTW I just ran an upgrade to the latest FOSWiki version |
kb9vqf | samelian, If you run into problems let me know |
samelian | ok |
Strangelv | Does it helyp to say that FOSWiki is the second best wiki I've used? |
Strangelv | I would definietly want to put some things from MediaWiki into it |
samelian | nope :) |
Strangelv | Probably number one is to save the markup, not html derived form teh markup |
Strangelv | "Things get lost in shuffling back and forth |
Strangelv | "especially ones related to formatting |
Strangelv | Talk pages would be really helpful too |
kb9vqf | Strangelv: Talk pages are now available :) |
Piki | kb9vqf: if we have someone that can do the FOSwiki syntax, i can start adding some normal user documentation after a few more TDE releases (or at least, whenever i get an opening in my schedule) |
Strangelv | Oh good |
Strangelv | :: looks to see if the IRC archive is up since the last time he looked |
kb9vqf | Not yet |
*kb9vqf got sidetracked with the Wiki :-P | |
Strangelv | :: instead notices tha it's no longer announced on welcoming |
kb9vqf | Should be |
Strangelv | Wasn't announced when I reconnected |
Strangelv | I don't have reliable logging in Konversation, and chat logs often contain excellent material to dump into talk pages |
Strangelv | ...Admittedly teh only wiki that I know wher ethis is done is behind an apache door dragon and an NDA |
kb9vqf | It'll be up as soon as I get the HTML converter working ;-) |
Strangelv | html converter? |
Piki | kb9vqf: keep forgetting to mention this, but on Trinity home page -> Download Project Files, 3.5.12 isn't listed, just 3.5.11, and some people will notice this link before they see the Official Releases section further down the nav bar |
Piki | kb9vqf: mozbot doesn't have a plugin to do the chat logs in html? |
kb9vqf | It does them in an XML format |
kb9vqf | Which won't work in Firefox |
Piki | hmm, if it accepts eggdrop-style tcl scripts, there are a couple eggdrop scripts, but i doubt mozbot would accept those |
kb9vqf | Probably not |
kb9vqf | It won't take long to get it working, I just haven't had the time today |
kb9vqf | Anyone working on the Wiki may want to bookmark this: http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/wiki/bin/view/System/TextFormattingRules |
kb9vqf | Lots of good stuff in there |
Strangelv | That's more informative that waht I'd been going by. That should help, whenever I get back to work on hunting down files so I can figure out waht I need to wokr on |
Piki | kb9vqf: dunno if this will help with the chat logs, but i found http://webscripts.softpedia.com/script/Snippets/ircLOG2HTML-10301.html |
Piki | never used it myself, can't say how it works |
kb9vqf | That's what I'll be using |
*Strangelv doesn't see an equivalent to <BR clear="all"/>, but wonders if <sticky/> could help | |
kb9vqf | I have to massage the mozbot xml log to xchat style |
Piki | kb9vqf: perhaps if i get a chance at some point, i can setup a mozbot in a private channel and create one that can skip xml and go directly to html |
*Xu_R|School has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Piki | i'm not a coder, but a chance to learn |
Xu_R|School | kb9vqf: nice touch with the tbottu welcome :) |
kb9vqf | :) |
*Xu_R|School has to endure another 40 minutes... helpppppppp xD | |
Piki | i didn't know tbottu had a welcome? |
kb9vqf | Piki: Disconnect from the channel and you will see it when you reconnect |
Xu_R|School | kb9vqf: it sends the message via /notice, right? |
kb9vqf | Yes |
*Piki has left #trinity-desktop | |
Xu_R|School | knew it. :D |
*Piki has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | See it? |
Piki | now i do |
kb9vqf | I only added it yesterday |
Piki | using /msg, i assume? |
Xu_R|School | when we all netsplit lol |
kb9vqf | /notify, actually |
Xu_R|School | Piki: no, via /notice |
kb9vqf | Yes, that |
*kb9vqf did a thinko | |
Piki | lol i hope we don't get 100 people joining at once, tbottu may get confused |
Xu_R|School | Piki: does 15 people count? XD |
Xu_R|School | (net split last night caused mass d/c and r/c) |
kb9vqf | Tbottu will notify each person in turn |
tbottu | kb9vqf: Sorry, I've no idea what 'will notify each person in turn' might be. |
samelian | kb9vqf: is any way to disable WYSIWYG on foswiki, for my account ? |
kb9vqf | samelian: Maybe |
kb9vqf | I was looking into that |
Piki | kb9vqf: i'm talking within a couple seconds, and tbottusees quite a few of them joining at the same time |
kb9vqf | Piki: Right |
kb9vqf | he'll flood the server :-P |
kb9vqf | There is still a split second between each join notice |
kb9vqf | That's enough |
Xu_R|School | wheeeeeeeee lol |
Xu_R|School | o_O speaking of that, my bot just had a d/c |
*Xu_R|School goes to fix stuff | |
kb9vqf | samelian: I can shut down the WYSIWY editor wiki-wide |
kb9vqf | Do you want me to try that? |
kb9vqf | I never use it anyway |
kb9vqf | Seems more trouble than it is worth |
samelian | maybe someone want to use it |
kb9vqf | Yes, but it is corrupting the articles |
kb9vqf | That's what bugs me |
Xu_R|School | :-\ |
samelian | ok then, disable it |
Xu_R|School | foswiki seems to have a way of screwing over people editing with its wysiwyg editor :P |
samelian | hehe |
Strangelv | I've been starting wtih WYSIWYG, then disable and fix things it messes up |
Strangelv | "largely because until the formatting link that was pasted here a few minuets ago I couldn't get some things to wokr otherwise |
Xu_R|School | :( |
Strangelv | What I'd found on my own was a bit more limited |
Strangelv | "at the moment I'm at wokr stoppage until I can get back ot hunting down files to find out what I need to work on |
Xu_R|School | kb9vqf: are the servers still down? |
kb9vqf | No |
Strangelv | "Unless someone else finds firles for me to wokr on -- taht would help |
kb9vqf | But one just failed |
kb9vqf | Dunno why |
kb9vqf | It happened like 30 seconds ago |
Xu_R|School | o_O |
Xu_R|School | I just tried to connect like 30 seconds ago |
*Xu_R|School hides behind tbottu | |
*kb9vqf runs to check the rack | |
Piki | looks like the one holding the trinity page (just cause i like saying the obvious ;-)) |
*Xu_R|School doesn't try accessing it anymore from school | |
Xu_R|School | I don't feel like arguing with administration and central office on the basis of their windows logs calling using the internet "hacking" |
samelian | haha |
Xu_R|School | I've done it once, and I seriously hold a grudge against my school, |
Xu_R|School | oh. |
Xu_R|School | they also lied to me about their logs |
Xu_R|School | they were like, we got reports that you were trying to use /etc/passwd |
Xu_R|School | me: I have server logs here. My connection never made it to the server. |
Xu_R|School | because your windows thing blocked me out of it and called it hacking. |
*Xu_R|School facepalms them | |
Piki | Xu_R: i seriously hold a grudge against anyone that thinks that windows is the best thing in the entire universe and that linux is a virus ant that linux users are radicals who want to take over the world |
Piki | and that seems like pretty much everyone these days |
Piki | including my own mother, who always told me to fight for my own beliefs and is now trying to convince me to use windows |
Xu_R|School | Piki: not necessarily. |
Xu_R|School | i know people that are not computer geeks that hate windows ;) |
Piki | Xu_R: i've only met one of those, everyone else seems to hate linux |
kb9vqf | OK, server's back up |
Piki | at least here in PA |
kb9vqf | A lot of people think Linux is for geeks only |
Xu_R|School | kb9vqf: loaded. nice :D |
kb9vqf | WYSIWYG editor is disabled |
kb9vqf | samelian ^^ |
samelian | thx |
Strangelv | :: doesn't know anyone in PA who isn't a geek. Yes, he doesn't know many people theer at all. How did you guess? |
samelian | now I must to learn foswiki syntax :) |
Xu_R|School | lol Strangelv! |
samelian | for explain cmake language, I must learn wiki language :)) |
Piki | kb9vqf: really? who would think that? linux is for braindead people who don't know a thing about computers! lol |
kb9vqf | samelian: You can enable a different syntax if you want |
kb9vqf | Piki: Well, KDE4 is not helping there :-P |
samelian | cmake syntax, maybe? :) |
kb9vqf | Neither is Gnome |
kb9vqf | samelian: Nope, sorry :-P |
samelian | haha |
Xu_R|School | samelian: if it was cmake syntax, we'd have all this converted to cmake already :P |
samelian | for sure |
Piki | there was a point where linux was geeks-only, the normal user thing is recent |
samelian | we convert anything to cmake :) |
kb9vqf | samelian: Is it still eating your </verbatim> tags? |
samelian | wait |
Piki | kb9vqf: yeah, GNOME never helped with that, and KDE4 certainly isn't helping either, i'm only surviving KDE4 because i've been a linux user for a few years ;-) |
kb9vqf | The only things that kept me from going back to Windows were the $$$$$ needed and the same stupid interface on Windows 7 |
kb9vqf | :-P |
samelian | seems fine now |
Xu_R|School | samelian: :: goes on a cmake conversion rampage :: :P |
kb9vqf | Great! |
kb9vqf | I'll leave the WYSIWYG editor disabled then |
Strangelv | "So we have someone who's actually using KDE4? What's theer that's good to cannibalize after the Qt4 migration besides Konqueror? |
Xu_R|School | kb9vqf: one reason i can use windows: gov license thanks to my dad :D |
kb9vqf | KDevelop (maybe) |
kb9vqf | Hehe |
Xu_R|School | (well, gov discount >:D) |
kb9vqf | Yeah, but try that with the server editions |
Xu_R|School | strangelv: everything. XD |
Xu_R|School | kb9vqf: I have 2003 and 2008 R2 sitting on my desk at home, unused cause my dad got those for free somehow o.o |
kb9vqf | Dunno how |
kb9vqf | Those are NOT CHEAP |
Xu_R|School | of course |
Xu_R|School | did I mention UNUSED XD |
kb9vqf | Hehe |
kb9vqf | M$ is watching you... |
Xu_R|School | XD |
*kb9vqf gets evil grin agani | |
Piki | kb9vqf: i used to like the xp UI, it was the continued unstability and $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ pushed me |
Xu_R|School | screw MS |
Xu_R|School | I have openSUSE XD |
kb9vqf | Piki: Yup |
kb9vqf | Same here |
*Strangelv 's MS Windows migration path hit a dead end when he didn't like the XP licence. He has a still shrinkwrapped 2000 box he bought on EBay he wants to install to a kvm when he has time to figure it out | |
kb9vqf | I found KDE3.5.....then they dumped it :angry: |
Piki | Strangelv: i don't like kde4, i only use it because i haven't managed to package TDE for my fave distro |
Strangelv | "I've actually been using KDE singe KDE 2 |
kb9vqf | I've seen KDE2 |
Xu_R|School | kb9vqf: :( |
kb9vqf | KDE3 is a vast improvement |
Strangelv | "I understand that you probabyl idon't like it, just noting the potential usefulness of someone looking at it |
Xu_R|School | I started with KDE3. :D |
kb9vqf | KDE4 is worse than KDE2 |
kb9vqf | :) |
Xu_R|School | kb9vqf: LOL ouch |
Xu_R|School | pwnage |
Strangelv | "I liked KDE 2 a lot more than GNOME |
kb9vqf | I have used KDE2 actually |
kb9vqf | So I can say that with some confidence |
Xu_R|School | Strangelv: for me, I actually like GNOME 2 right now... |
Strangelv | And KDE 2 didn't inspire me to want to throw my monitor across the room |
Piki | i like windows vista better than GNOME |
kb9vqf | I hate Gnome personally |
samelian | I using kde from 1.3, if i correct remember |
Strangelv | clap |
*Xu_R|School claps for samelian :D | |
*Strangelv claps | |
kb9vqf | for me, KDE4 < Windows 7 < KDE2 < Windows 2000 < KDE3 |
kb9vqf | Gnome < KDE2 |
Strangelv | "it's been too long since KDE 2 for me to evaluate it |
Xu_R|School | me: KDE3 > GNOME > Windows 7 > KDE4 |
Xu_R|School | lol. |
kb9vqf | Heh |
kb9vqf | I see a trend |
samelian | kde2 was great for that times |
Strangelv | "It was a gradual progression where it mostly kept improwving except for a now missing setting from Konqueror I desperately want back |
Xu_R|School | kde4 is all the way at the bottom anyway XD |
kb9vqf | Stragelv: Yep. Then it took a nosedive for the worse |
Piki | kde3 > windows 7 > windows vista > gnome |
Piki | gnome > kde4 |
kb9vqf | On the bottom *again* :) |
Xu_R|School | kb9vqf: BWAHAHAHAQHAHAHA XD |
kb9vqf | Have you seen KDevelop 4? |
*kb9vqf wants to know what ate all the useful toolbar icons | |
kb9vqf | :-P |
Xu_R|School | ewww. KDevelop 4. |
Piki | yep, i don't like gnome at all, but i don't hate it. i hate kde4 |
kb9vqf | Precisely |
kb9vqf | "Activities" are for preschool |
kb9vqf | Not for software development |
Xu_R|School | kb9vqf: trololol |
Xu_R|School | activities... we're in preschool class. XD |
kb9vqf | Complete with big button blocks :-P |
samelian | but why we hate kde4? |
samelian | what is problem with it? |
kb9vqf | Unintuitive |
kb9vqf | Slow |
kb9vqf | Clunky |
Piki | unfortunately, most of the "adults" i see still belong in preschool |
kb9vqf | Wastes screen real estate |
Xu_R|School | samelian: the graphics is mostly the problem |
Xu_R|School | and the way it handles |
kb9vqf | Missing context items |
samelian | the graphics are themeable :) |
Xu_R|School | otherwise, it's be great. |
Strangelv | "KDE 4 took away most of the things that make KDE 3.5 great |
samelian | i think i do not like the kicker replacement |
kb9vqf | You can't get around the lack of "at your fingertips" functionality |
Xu_R|School | samelian: I want to see performance improvements, not more eyecandy -__- |
kb9vqf | No matter how you theme it |
Piki | samelian: slow, too much eye candy, missing stuff from kde3, unstable |
Strangelv | "it's powerful, flexible, and easily adapted to be what teh user needs to get their work ,life, et c. done |
kb9vqf | In KDE3 you can usually access a function with one or two mouse clicks |
Strangelv | "KDE 4 takes that awapy |
Xu_R|School | In all: |
Xu_R|School | BLAHHH. |
kb9vqf | In KDE4 you get to click at *least* three times :) |
Strangelv | Most of what I wanted to do I couldn't in KDE 4 at all |
kb9vqf | That reminds me of using a newer Mac in a store |
kb9vqf | I counted 7 clicks to create and delete a folder |
Xu_R|School | ok, ok, let's stop ranting now. poor samelian. |
samelian | haha |
Piki | and i'm sure we could get a theme in kde3 that at least mimicks kde4 |
samelian | </rant> |
Piki | lol |
kb9vqf | That's easy |
Strangelv | "That's likely what our permanant icon ought to convey: TDE is what the user needs it to be, and not what someone else wants the user to use |
kb9vqf | We'll add an "instant uglification" button :-P |
kb9vqf | j/k |
Piki | lol |
kb9vqf | It'll make every widget 10x bigger |
Xu_R|School | yes, yes, let's </rant> now |
kb9vqf | And shrink the fonts |
kb9vqf | </rant> |
Xu_R|School | good. good. |
Strangelv | Konqueror in KDE 4 was the one bright spot |
*kb9vqf goes back to cursing at Qt4 | |
*samelian are to lazy to write cmake docs :) | |
*Strangelv happened to have been impressed by that bright spot | |
Xu_R|School | pfft. then rekonq took over :) |
kb9vqf | Strangelv :Well, maybe you can put a Wiki page up with what was better |
Piki | i think we should add a bunch of themes to TDE, e.g. kde4 themes, winvista/7, osx, os classic, just for the people who prefer those, but not include them in the main tde, but as extra themes that users can add |
Xu_R|School | which I hope we can make that the default in TDE once tqt for qt4 finishes |
Strangelv | kb9vqf: that would require me having KDE 4 installed on something again to go back and look |
Strangelv | "Extra themes is good |
Strangelv | It can especially help with people migrating and needing familiarity |
Strangelv | "it also helps to have teh same wallpaper and startup sound |
Strangelv | Q: how many of these already exist? |
Xu_R|School | Strangelv: ever since kde4 took over? like none now |
*samelian are scaried every time by error sound :) | |
samelian | broken glass |
Strangelv | "That are compatible with KDE 3.x/TDE |
kb9vqf | Heh |
*Strangelv used to have a photon torpedo filing for an error sound | |
Piki | Strangelv: not sure if we could get the sounds and wallpapers considering that M$ could come after us with a lawsuit for using copyright material |
Strangelv | "Something I miss from Plug In for Program Manager (MS Windows 3.1+) was the ability to assign sounds to executables |
Xu_R|School | kb9vqf: um, the Tim Willianms who just emailed trinity-users, i've decided to import his stuff for now into build.lincomlinux.org and start testing |
Xu_R|School | I might be better off than before :) |
Xu_R|School | hey, the bell just rang |
Xu_R|School | bbl |
Strangelv | "We couldn't use those, correct. It would be something to suggest to users, especially ones with the ability to port their probabyl already custom sounds and wallpaper |
Piki | Strangelv: 3.1 was the best windows, most stable version, and more secure considering one can still find a firewall and antivirus |
Piki | downside is no more modern apps for it |
Strangelv | "When Help started, the Book of Armamants was consulted; when my MIDI sequencer was started David Bowie would say it's not Rock and Roll, but genocide; when I started MS Word President Merkin Muffley would ask me if we had anything like that in the works |
Strangelv | until Windows 2000 my most stable experience with MS Windows was orinal 95, something that confused me until I realised that that was before i had MSIE installed |
Piki | yeah, they want everyone to use their braindead browser |
Strangelv | "Netscape for MS Windows wasn't on par with its Linux version |
Piki | firefox is much better than either, unfortunately it's slow loading |
Strangelv | Something I learned to do with MSIE that I couldn't do with Mozilla or Netscape was to run multiple instance of ut -- so that when an instance crashed I didn't lose everything all at once |
Strangelv | "I rely heavily on Firefox 2 still -- firefox 3 has never been stable for me |
Piki | and it pulls in a bunch of GTK libs, and i don't use any other gtk |
Piki | what's ut? |
Strangelv | "although it got noticeably less bad with 3.5 shortly before 3.6. It's still a lot less stable than 2.0 |
Strangelv | "ut? |
Piki | ff 2 was slow for me too |
Strangelv | "firefox 2 is a nightmare memory hog. It's something I kept in mind when I got a motherboad that can do up to 32 GB of RAM |
Piki | Strangelv: a few lines up, you mention multiple instances of ut |
Strangelv | "oh, multiple instances of it (MSIE) |
Piki | ff3 uses less memory, but is still slow |
Piki | konqueror is fast, but doesn't do html very well |
kb9vqf | KHTML is completely broken |
Piki | just discovered rekonq in the Ark repos, gonna see if it works |
kb9vqf | A lot of modern websites will not work right |
Piki | yep, only downside to konqueror is khtml, works great for everything else |
kb9vqf | Once Qt4 porting is complete, I plan to use Webkit instead of khtml |
Strangelv | "I've never found Konquer to be stable as a web browser. Actually, I've never been impressed by its stability as a file browser either. It's possible that if I'd run KDE 4 longer I'd have found stability issues with that wversion too. I should install it sometime as I already have Qt4 running for something anyway |
kb9vqf | Way in the future though :) |
kb9vqf | Strangelv: Nice and stable here |
kb9vqf | Although I did fix a lot of crashing bugs in Trinity |
Piki | thinking of making d3lphin the default filemanager for TDE in ark, though, just to maintain consistency with our kde4 version |
Strangelv | How similar are they, given that khtml begat WebKit? |
kb9vqf | WebKit is maintained by Apple AFAIK |
kb9vqf | Meaning they *will* make rendering work correctly |
kb9vqf | khtml was never properly maintained |
Strangelv | noted |
Piki | konqueror has always been stable here, even displays an error instead of crashing when khtml failed to load |
Piki | works well with local file management, ftp (never did uploading though), and sftp |
Strangelv | I must admit that it's a plus when there's notice that something has crashed. In unix, things are supposed to crash noisely, only in Xorg, they crash like a mouse silently leaving the room |
Piki | it helps when it says why it crashed, rather than just saying it crashed |
Strangelv | "That's nice too, yes |
Piki | rekonq looks nice, faster than arora, but it's missing a menu bar, can't find how to enable it in my right click menus |
kb9vqf | Grrr....Qt4 completely gutted QCString |
kb9vqf | The original functionality is GONE with respect to null terminators |
Piki | just found the rekonq config |
Piki | kb9vqf: isn't null just a value of '0'? |
kb9vqf | Yes |
Piki | perhaps see if that works? |
kb9vqf | QCString is supposed to automagically add/subtract the length of the null terminator |
kb9vqf | Q3CString does NOT |
kb9vqf | I've been having to track down and reimplement the functions that are malfunctioning |
kb9vqf | It's not the null == 0 thing ;-) |
kb9vqf | I dealt with that back on Day 1 ;-) |
kb9vqf | Ah, there we go |
kb9vqf | Much bette |
kb9vqf | *better |
samelian | kb9vqf: QCString must die anyway :) |
Piki | any rekonq users who know how to get the menubar? |
samelian | as I understand QCString was invented to easy porting from Qt2 to Qt3 |
kb9vqf | samelian: It's used practically everywhere in Trinity |
kb9vqf | It's a slightly enhanced const char * string |
samelian | yes, I know |
kb9vqf | So it actually does have a purpose |
kb9vqf | if you need to interface to anything C-like |
kb9vqf | QString has problems because it is Unicode |
samelian | but i'm not wrong, QCString::length() is the same thing as strlen() |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | But not in Q3CString |
samelian | this is bad, actually |
kb9vqf | They broke it |
kb9vqf | I had to fix it |
samelian | length() count all characters every time |
samelian | this is an useless overhead |
kb9vqf | Yes, I know |
kb9vqf | I know there are "better" ways of doing things |
kb9vqf | But the C API is old |
kb9vqf | You probably will need to use a QCString |
kb9vqf | When you do glib integration |
kb9vqf | *When/if |
samelian | actually I used QString instead |
samelian | this is recommended |
kb9vqf | But you probably used the .ascii() function, right? |
samelian | yes |
kb9vqf | That's a QCString internally |
samelian | QString do this automatically too |
kb9vqf | ascii() has a lot of overhead |
kb9vqf | Both in terms of memory and CPU time |
kb9vqf | Just FYI |
samelian | operator const char* is the same thing |
kb9vqf | Yup |
kb9vqf | Same conversion |
kb9vqf | Same overhead |
kb9vqf | Like I said, I think QCString has its place |
kb9vqf | But only for low level stuff |
*kb9vqf just got khelpcenter partially working :) | |
samelian | hehe |
Piki | kb9vqf: once i eventually get 3.5.12 packaged and uploaded to the AL repos, i can grab svn and start helping there |
Piki | with testing |
kb9vqf | Sounds great |
kb9vqf | We will need lots of testing this go-round |
kb9vqf | Lots of stuff is changing |
kb9vqf | in the backend that is |
kb9vqf | samelian: Speaking of which, how goes libkpower? |
Piki | i'm hoping i can patch 3.5.12 for our mission control, though, don't know how much has changed since 3.5.10 |
kb9vqf | Piki: Depends on what is used |
kb9vqf | As long as you didn't use low level device libraries the patch should be relatively simple |
Piki | kb9vqf: dunno, haven't looked at the patches yet |
kb9vqf | Ok |
kb9vqf | You'll need to tqt convert them most likely |
kb9vqf | That involves changing QObject to TQObject, QWidget to TQWidget, etc. |
kb9vqf | And changing things like find("foo") to tqfind("foo") |
Piki | kb9vqf: i don't think it would, it's for reorganizing kcontrol modules to make it easier for new users |
kb9vqf | Pretty simple |
kb9vqf | Oh, OK |
kb9vqf | TQt conversion would be the hardest part then |
kb9vqf | And it's mostly just tedious |
Piki | dunno why the patches are there in the first place, but still |
kb9vqf | Sure |
Piki | kb9vqf: you'll have to help me convert to tqt, i haven't started coding yet ;-) |
kb9vqf | When you're ready (way in the future I know...) just poke me here |
kb9vqf | I'll help you |
kb9vqf | Or maybe by that point others will know about TQt :) |
Piki | in fact, once it's converted and stable, i can send in mission control and it's patches |
kb9vqf | And I could probably include them in SVN |
kb9vqf | As long as there's a GPL license, and the coding is OK there shouldn't be any problems |
Piki | i'm rsync'ing our stable repos (need to regenerate the repodata, it disappeared for some reasons), once the 2008.1 isos appear, i can do a vbox install and do screenshots |
Xu_R | mwahaha, i iz back |
Piki | kb9vqf: i'm pretty sure it uses GPLv2, and bero is obsessed with keeping code clean and sane so that things work, so i don't think that will be a problem |
kb9vqf | Great |
samelian | kb9vqf: I haven't time to progress on libkpower, at this moment I can call upower methods (like suspend()) and a can read upower properties (like onBattery()) |
kb9vqf | OK |
Piki | if it isn't clean, i can do some work cleaning it up when converting to tqt, once i know how to code |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: anything back-breaking in SVN atm? I'm about to start pulling from services. |
Xu_R | *triggering services |
Piki | brb |
Xu_R | samelian: do the 3.5.12 tarballs work with your current svn cmake scripts? |
Xu_R | because i'm going to maintain two versions: 3.5.12 and svn (named 3.5.12.99) |
Piki | Xu_R: using rekonq, apparently on the AL repos, nice UI, and faster than arora, but can't find the menu bar |
Xu_R | Piki: there is no menubar |
Xu_R | use the settings to the side to access everything |
Xu_R | very lightweight. no baggage. |
Piki | yeah, i'm used to a menu bar |
Xu_R | brb snacking |
Piki | keeps things a bit organized and quicker (at least for me) than keeping everything under the same button |
*Xu_R goes to nom on ramen again :D | |
*field_it has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Piki | btw, a menu bar doesn't mean extra baggage, arora has one, and it tries to be as minimal as possible |
Piki | it's still not reached 1.0 yet |
Piki | so there's still time for it to speed it |
samelian | Xu_R: I have no ideea, I think will not working directly, at least because cmake check for patched qt3 |
Piki | it == up |
Piki | it might work, if the cmake scripts use the same source files as 3.5.12 |
Piki | or maybe with a patch to 3.5.12 |
Piki | on the plus side (for rekonq), facebook now seems to be working normally |
*kb9vqf notes that "very lightweight" often == "completely usesless" | |
Piki | just wish i could remove the fb chat from the site, i have kopete set for that |
Piki | kb9vqf: not always, as long as it can still function properly, do what the user needs, and support extensions so the user can add what he needs/wants that isn't included, that's a good thing |
kb9vqf | Right |
Piki | it's a matter of how it is developed/designed |
kb9vqf | Hence the "often" word ;-) |
kb9vqf | I see that used waaayyy too often as an excuse |
kb9vqf | And yes, I agree with you |
Piki | arora is slow, and doesn't like fb, but if they fix those and add a way to use extensions, arora would be a great lightweight browser |
Piki | i find it odd that arora doesn't like fb, though, it uses webkit, and so does rekonq |
kb9vqf | The insanity I was referring to usually ends with "xyz feature make the interface too cluttered, let's completely remove it from the application. Oh and by the way, this makes it so we don't have to do as much in the future" :-P |
kb9vqf | It's about what's easiest for the developers |
kb9vqf | I'm not sure about Arora |
*kb9vqf has never used it | |
kb9vqf | Although KDE has a long history of patching backend libraries |
kb9vqf | Maybe they did that with Webkit for rekonq |
Piki | with certain apps, there are things that should always be there, and other things that if they aren't included, they should at least be extensions |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | Firefox for example is well designed |
Piki | kb9vqf: i don't think rekonq is actually kde4, i'm pretty sure it's a 3rd part app |
kb9vqf | Which might include a patched verison of Webkit |
kb9vqf | I'm just speculating though |
Piki | arora is nice, but slow |
Piki | actually, when i installed rekonq, it didn't pull in webkit, it seems to be using webkit as already installed |
Piki | which would be the same webkit that arora is using on my system |
kb9vqf | Hmm |
kb9vqf | Beats me then |
Piki | there could be a bug in arora in how it' using webkit |
Piki | this whole time i was thinking that it was my internet connection really slow that was causing the fb and speed issues in arora, but rekonq is going extremely fast, and seems to like fb |
kb9vqf | Arora is GTK based? |
Piki | (Clear is a horrible ISP, but unfortunately i have no other choice but to rely on my mother's verizon FiOS, and she tends to shut it off when i'm using it cause she's afraid of linux) |
Piki | no, Qt |
Piki | Qt4 |
Piki | the only GTK app i use is firefox |
Piki | and i use it only because of KHTML and website compatibility |
kb9vqf | Ah |
kb9vqf | Qt4 |
kb9vqf | If used wrong it could be really, really slow |
kb9vqf | And it's very easy to use wrong :) |
Xu_R | samelian: fk. I'll try it, but that means I'll have to devel soley on svn right now |
Piki | it's slow and heavy, and pulls in GTK libs (obviously), which i shouldn't have to do being that i don't use any other GTK apps |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: Go ahead; I'll try not to break things too badly in SVN |
Piki | just takes up extra space that i could otherwise use when i get to heavy packaging |
kb9vqf | If it breaks poke me here |
Piki | though i dunno, may decide to package GNOME just to shut up the people who keep complaining that we don't have it |
Piki | after TDE, of course ;-) |
kb9vqf | Naturally :) |
Piki | and perhaps some other DE's and WM's\ |
Piki | so having GTK may come in handy |
*eldarion has joined #trinity-desktop | |
*kb9vqf thinks that may be a good idea | |
kb9vqf | Lots of GTK apps out there |
kb9vqf | And TDE integrates nicely |
Piki | the only reason we have GTK in our repos is for firefox, which is in the repos only because it's so popular |
Piki | we don't include anything GTK on the ISO, however |
kb9vqf | You don't have Gimp itself then? |
Piki | never bothered to search our repos for it |
Piki | *Checks& |
Piki | turns out we do |
Piki | i think we include krita by default |
Piki | i don't do anything with image editing, except resizing and cropping photos photos from the camera |
Piki | i use gwenview for that |
Piki | if there is anyone here who is willing to download Ark's devel ISO and do some packaging of GTK apps, feel free to let us know ;-) |
Piki | we use RPM5, very similiar to RPM4, though i'm pretty sure we use SRPMs on the build server |
Piki | no public access to build server (i don't have access), but we can always create a temporary drop point on the webserver via a php page |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: started services. hopefully svn won't get pounded too much :) |
*Xu_R thinks of mario's "here we go!" voice :P | |
kb9vqf | OK |
Piki | imagine mario saying "whop-pop-pop-per" (was a joke at BK when i worked there lol) |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: and the nice thing is that I think I have a patched version of build.o.o that allows me to use download-on-demand ready... :D |
Xu_R | that will allow me to include the Update repositories and rolling release repositories of any distribution. |
Xu_R | well, I think i'll stick with the basics of making it build first ;) |
Xu_R | I'll brb for a while... Sleeping at 2AM does not go well for me. |
samelian | kb9vqf: I started to document my macros |
samelian | http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/wiki/bin/view/Developers/CMakeConversionProcess |
kb9vqf | Good |
*K`zan has joined #trinity-desktop | |
*MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | irc logs now online? nice |
kb9vqf | Almost |
kb9vqf | Give me a minute or two |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: also, I've implemented the secondary bar, and pretty much converted all the pages you have me, so from here I just need to 1) look over the wiki, some stuff should be in the website. 2) do the frontpage with 3.5.12 features 3) make an about/history page 4) double check and validate everything |
kb9vqf | OK |
kb9vqf | I don't have time right this instant unfortunately :-( |
kb9vqf | Will you be on later on todaty? |
kb9vqf | *today |
MutantTurkey | that fine, I was just letting you know |
kb9vqf | OK, thanks |
MutantTurkey | I should be tonight. |
kb9vqf | And thanks for all the work on it :") |
MutantTurkey | :) yup |
MutantTurkey | I've also contacted David R about Archlinux + Trinity, he has made some progress and i'll be working through bugs with him hopefully |
kb9vqf | OK |
kb9vqf | Logs are up |
kb9vqf | I don't know if they will update automatically yet |
kb9vqf | And there is some work to be done with splitting them month to month |
kb9vqf | But they are there :) |
*field_it has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Piki | pfft, just hit "CTRL+Shift+T" in rekonq cause i closed a tab by accident, it reloaded all the tabs i've closed, instead of just the last one |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: okay great! |
MutantTurkey | okay I am going to make a list of pages that may/should move to the main site |
kb9vqf | Sounds good |
kb9vqf | IRC log automatic updates work :) |
samelian | kb9vqf: I think we must to find someone for cmake conversion |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | toxic_devil said he'd take a look at your Wiki page |
samelian | because we are only qt developer, our skills can be used for programming |
kb9vqf | Right |
samelian | cmake is too simple for us :) |
kb9vqf | Correct |
samelian | actually cmake can be learn very easy just reading CMakeLists.txt |
samelian | kb9vqf: send an announce to lists that we recruiting cmake porters |
samelian | I will mentoring him |
MutantTurkey | I can help. |
samelian | in this, when you ready, I will start to teach you :) |
samelian | in this case* |
kb9vqf | samelian: Is your Wiki article finished then? |
kb9vqf | I'll send the announce once I have something to refer to |
samelian | is not, I'm not sure how far I must to go with explanations |
samelian | I assume that who want to help with cmake, must read cmake docs at first time |
kb9vqf | So the process is not straightforward enough to do without reading the CMake docs? |
kb9vqf | A lot of people will not bother to read those docs |
samelian | will be easy to do for usual tasks |
MutantTurkey | samelian: okay great, I am nearing website completion, hopefully this week if i am not to busy. I am anxious to work on cmake |
samelian | don't |
samelian | is really simple |
samelian | I think you will need to read a little, to understand basics |
kb9vqf | Why don't you put a link to the section(s) you think people should read first |
kb9vqf | Something like Read This First: |
samelian | good ideea |
samelian | the barrier is my poor english, is hard for me to write docs |
kb9vqf | Right |
kb9vqf | I understand |
samelian | i preffer to teach someone with solid english background |
kb9vqf | Just get the essentials down |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: I have another task for you..... |
samelian | then, he can continue my doc |
kb9vqf | Once you learn CMake you can clean up samelian's Wiki article :) |
MutantTurkey | I better make a list :p |
MutantTurkey | samelian: yeah, I can help you with english. |
MutantTurkey | for documentation. |
samelian | MutantTurkey: you will enjoy when your cmake will be able to compile a big part of trinity :) |
MutantTurkey | :D |
Piki | we have to be able to understand poor english in linux, linux is global and not everyone is good with english ;-) |
samelian | hehe |
kb9vqf | So true |
samelian | I need to learn it, but I have no time to take some formal lessons |
MutantTurkey | one trick is to watch american or British tv shows. |
Piki | there are translators like Google Translate or AltaVista bablefish (i think that's it), they aren't perfect, but can help |
samelian | and I'm too lazy to read english grammar books ;) |
kb9vqf | I've been told they don't work for ru-->en |
MutantTurkey | Piki: google translate is my savior for linux. many russian speakers |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: they work well enough |
kb9vqf | Oh |
kb9vqf | Maybe it was en-->ru |
*kb9vqf forgets | |
MutantTurkey | both ways I've been okay with. |
MutantTurkey | usually its not good grammer |
kb9vqf | Hmm |
MutantTurkey | but passable. |
kb9vqf | OK |
Piki | yeah, translators don't do grammar well, but they can do words and small phrases decently |
Piki | two problems with TV shows: it can be hard to sound out words for typing sometimes, and while the grammar will be the same between different english-speaking countries, they can sometimes have different slang and figurativeterms |
MutantTurkey | agreed. |
kb9vqf | Yes, and American TV shows typically slur and utilize bad grammar |
Piki | and not everyone uses good grammar |
Piki | kb9vqf: exactly, and mispronounce an' all dat |
kb9vqf | Yes :) |
MutantTurkey | when is 3.5.13 due? we are on 6th month cycle? |
kb9vqf | Right now yes |
kb9vqf | But the CMake port is a blocker |
kb9vqf | It must be finished before 3.5.13 (3.6.0?) can be released |
samelian | automake do not working anymore? |
MutantTurkey | agreed. |
kb9vqf | samelian: No |
kb9vqf | It broke badly |
MutantTurkey | also what about HAL? i would like to see that go |
kb9vqf | It may have to wait |
kb9vqf | We'll see where samelian is after the CMake port is finished :) |
samelian | haha |
MutantTurkey | how long/ how far are we on that? |
kb9vqf | CMake? |
MutantTurkey | yes |
samelian | depends you you consider "trinity" |
samelian | what you* |
kb9vqf | I say the entire codebase that is in SVN |
samelian | wow |
kb9vqf | Yes |
samelian | that's big |
kb9vqf | Yes it is |
kb9vqf | Hence my thought that a delay is needed |
kb9vqf | Now I know some of it is already converted to CMake |
Piki | it isn't always good to work on a specific deadline, it can either pushed back and get users mad, or force you to put out a bad release and make users mad |
kb9vqf | rosegarden, etc. |
kb9vqf | Piki: Correct |
kb9vqf | Think of this particular release date as a suggestion |
kb9vqf | If the bugs aren't fixed they aren't fixed and we can't release |
kb9vqf | I want a high quality 3.6.0 |
Piki | exactly |
MutantTurkey | 3.6 is: hal gone, updated libraries completely? CMake fully? |
kb9vqf | CMake for sure |
MutantTurkey | what about new features that users will actually see. |
kb9vqf | HAL gone if possible |
kb9vqf | Lots of bugfixes |
MutantTurkey | i mean, backend stuff is good. but, honestly? a user doesn't care hal vs udisks |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: They do care about stability |
MutantTurkey | which is I would say #1 importance |
kb9vqf | I would like to see those bugs in Bugzilla taken care of |
kb9vqf | *Completely* stabilize 3.6.0 |
kb9vqf | No more random crashing anywhere :) |
Piki | we don't even put suggested release dates at ark, people tend to read those as definitive |
MutantTurkey | hopefully have Arch packages :) |
kb9vqf | That follows CMake :) |
MutantTurkey | yes. |
MutantTurkey | Cmake is the blocker because we can't develop if we cannot build. |
kb9vqf | If you, toxic_devil, and some others can get CMake finished it would free samelian and I up to work on those other things |
kb9vqf | Feel free to recruit warm bodies for the CMake task ;-) |
samelian | most and hardest cmake tasks was done, actually |
samelian | now is just boring :) |
kb9vqf | Right |
samelian | right now i'm on trinity built with cmake |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: If you want to put together a CMake recruitment Email I'll forward it to the list |
samelian | so, is good enough for me :) |
kb9vqf | samelian: How is it treating you? Find any irritating bugs yet? |
samelian | nope |
Piki | kb9vqf: i'd say instead of rewriting the HAL code for udev, rewrite it in much the same fashion as tqt, as in make it so that all we need to do to change the hardware backend is create a wrapper for the backend that TDE can plug. dunno if that's doable, but if so it can make things easier |
kb9vqf | Great :) |
samelian | actually small annoing crashes |
samelian | klipper |
kb9vqf | Piki: That's exactly what we're doing |
samelian | and very rare, kmail |
kb9vqf | Backtraces would help |
samelian | yes, klipper make some strange |
samelian | crashing in qt |
kb9vqf | stack corrupt, etc? |
kb9vqf | ick |
samelian | nope |
kb9vqf | Oh |
samelian | something about mime |
kb9vqf | MimeSource |
samelian | crashing when I select something from qt3 assistant |
kb9vqf | Huh |
MutantTurkey | I can put together an email, what mailing list? |
samelian | that's really annoying |
kb9vqf | Send it to trinity-announce |
MutantTurkey | Also, are we trying to recruit any qt devels? jw |
kb9vqf | I'll proofread it and sent it out |
kb9vqf | YES |
MutantTurkey | ah I'll shoot it past you and you can email it. |
samelian | qt3 devels are very rare :) |
kb9vqf | Qt devs in general |
MutantTurkey | all dinosaurs now :p |
kb9vqf | Good ones that is :) |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: yeah. I've made alot of friends with linux, maybe be some help if any are qt devels |
samelian | as far I know, I and kb9vqf are last mohicans :) |
kb9vqf | I hope not! |
samelian | actually for me is the same, i'm an old programmer |
samelian | so no matter to much the framework |
kb9vqf | That's the way it should be IMHO |
samelian | i'm not exactly a C++ guru, but is enough for usual tasks |
kb9vqf | That's fine |
kb9vqf | I'm mostly handling the really weird stuff most people see once in a lifetime |
samelian | hehe |
MutantTurkey | I am just a C programmer, I have no formal training though |
MutantTurkey | just bumming around and patching stuff. |
samelian | however, about cmake, the big scary tasks like kdelibs, kdebase, kdevelop and quanta are done |
samelian | now we need to finish the small applications |
samelian | I don't expect much troubles with it |
samelian | actually kopete is partial done, but I will finish it myself |
MutantTurkey | what version broke automake? |
MutantTurkey | samelian: will it be mostly the same for each application? i can do the grunt work |
samelian | pretty much |
samelian | will be almost copy/paste, copy/paste |
samelian | you just must follow some rules |
samelian | I created some cmake template files, for usual tasks |
MutantTurkey | excellent |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: I don't know much to say, I'll keep it short. |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: I don't know. Something after Ubuntu Maverick |
kb9vqf | And short is OK |
kb9vqf | :) |
*field_it has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: okay I've emailed you. |
field_it | hi |
field_it | did my msgs get through? |
field_it | dunno |
field_it | I'll post'em again.. |
field_it | problem is: the trinity window-manager entry (name) in the drop down menu of ?dm does not match the name in debian. I'd like to fix this, get rid of the warning "name not available any longer".. |
field_it | where are the menu entries created? |
field_it | in debian kde3 is now called trinity, in ubuntu it's called kde3.. |
field_it | I need it either way.. identical.. |
field_it | nevermind |
field_it | got it |
Piki | field_it: i think you would need to look up it up for your DM, they do things different |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Sent |
kb9vqf | Thanks! |
Piki | and the packager for debian/ubuntu would need to fix the name in the packager |
Piki | in the packages* |
samelian | kb9vqf: pls tell me syntax for tables, for foswiki |
kb9vqf | samelian: | Column 1 | Column 2 |
kb9vqf | samelian: | Column 1 | Column 2 | |
kb9vqf | ^^ |
kb9vqf | Newline |
kb9vqf | then |
samelian | thx |
kb9vqf | | Data1 | Data 2 | |
kb9vqf | np |
field_it | Piki: it's just a file in /usr/share/xsessions/ |
field_it | rename the file appropriately, change the name directive inside the file accordingly and you're done :) |
*aledec has joined #trinity-desktop | |
*aledec_ has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: woah. new theme for the Trinity wiki caught me by surprise - used to seeing too much blue ;) |
kb9vqf | It came with the upgrade |
kb9vqf | Is it good or bad? |
Xu_R | very good. the last one was an eyesore. |
kb9vqf | Glad to hear it :) |
Xu_R | :) |
Xu_R | oh s*** my workers died |
Xu_R | no wait... my scheduler. |
Space_Man | lol, you must feed your workers |
Xu_R | LOL |
Xu_R | my ARM and x86_64 workers are failing D: |
Xu_R | *schedulers |
Piki | you need a new datebook for 2011, your old 2010 is full |
Xu_R | AHHHHH. I sent my scheduler into heart attack mode by restarting it too many times >_< |
*Xu_R finally fixed his scheduler - in the process, added an ia64 arch | |
*aledec__ has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: great saw the email |
kb9vqf | Now we'll see if anyone responds :) |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: I'm guessing you were the person who wrote the email? :P |
kb9vqf | Yes he was |
Xu_R | nice nice. |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: yes sir |
Xu_R | :D |
MutantTurkey | had my father check it first :P he is quite good at sending out annoucements |
Xu_R | niceee :D |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: what would you say to a "developers profile" page? http://www.archlinux.org/developers/ |
MutantTurkey | I think it would be good so we could have a solid contact list. |
MutantTurkey | for example, I had no idea someone else was working on Arch. contacting people directly is often helpful. |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: as people come and go, will we always remember to update the page? :| |
MutantTurkey | well look |
MutantTurkey | the trick is: assign a website maintainer |
MutantTurkey | obviously the solution, so it won't be long over due like this time. |
Piki | what if the site maintainer goes? then who takes care of it? |
MutantTurkey | a maintainer will a) keep it updated b) add/remove based on events and such c) be composed of a single or team of people (size of it) d) it keeps the developers working |
MutantTurkey | Piki: you get a new one. |
MutantTurkey | and site maintainers, do come and go. same as developers and users. |
MutantTurkey | but by assigning someone the position, it becomes their responsability |
Piki | well, sometimes it could be awhile before we notice they're gone, and they might not know they're about to disappear until something comes up and may not have the time to notify us |
MutantTurkey | a while before we notice? I was thinking someone who is a regular. |
kb9vqf | If this is the case then the list should be maintained on a Wiki page |
MutantTurkey | also again, it is their job to notify us if they cannot handle it. |
MutantTurkey | I just think assigning jobs is a sure way to get stuff done |
Piki | also again, something may come up and they may not have the time to notify us |
MutantTurkey | then they are gone? |
MutantTurkey | it is not such a problme. |
MutantTurkey | the website isn't updated often |
MutantTurkey | just for new information / annoucements. |
MutantTurkey | also, that is alot of ifs and mays |
MutantTurkey | WHAT IF THEY GOT HIJACKED BY A BUNCH OF CRAZY NATIONALIST PARTY MEMBERS THAT THEN JOINED FORCES WITH GUERILLA FIGHTERS FROM CANADA, WHO THEN PROCEEDED TO HOLD HIM HOSTAGE ON A TRILLION DOLLARS BAIL? |
kb9vqf | Now now, be nice :) |
*Xu_R just got an email about the GA of F15 Alpha 1 that's currently on the serverbeach | |
MutantTurkey | i mean, we can't take into all factors for anything. alot can happen, and yes people come and go, but by assigning someone the duty, there is a better chance at it being updated. |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey is very confident in his views ;) |
Piki | i agree with kb9vqf, if we do make a page like that, we should do it on the wiki |
MutantTurkey | agreed. |
Piki | that way, we don't have to worry about if the webmaster disappears, someone else can remove them |
MutantTurkey | Piki: again, you are making the "webmaster" job sound complicated. |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf would still have access obviously to it. it is his server. simple as adding or removing a few lines from a file. |
Piki | no, i'm just taking into account if someone disappeared |
kb9vqf | Heh |
kb9vqf | I'm the founder |
MutantTurkey | then you move them to inactive/past members. |
kb9vqf | I will always be here :) |
MutantTurkey | what if you dissapear? |
MutantTurkey | D: |
MutantTurkey | what if . |
Piki | and webmastering can be complicated, i am a webmaster |
MutantTurkey | Piki: we are keeping it extremely simple. |
kb9vqf | What if a bus hit me tomorrow? |
MutantTurkey | well. we better just quit while we are ahead |
kb9vqf | Let's keep things in the realm of "likely" please :) |
Piki | i always try to be prepared for the unexpected |
MutantTurkey | since something may happen to any of us at any given time. |
MutantTurkey | let us just quit. |
kb9vqf | I do understand |
kb9vqf | But the simple fact is the services are running on my equipment |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: You better not be hit by a bus! >: |
Xu_R | XD |
kb9vqf | There is always a weak link/choke point/whatever you want to call it |
Piki | yes, and we need to be prepared for those to keep things running |
Piki | otherwise, things will fall apart at some point |
Piki | sure, we can't predict everything |
kb9vqf | I look at it this way; if I can no longer maintain Trinity and host the services I have then I would relinquish control of the fork |
Piki | but we should do our best to prepare |
kb9vqf | But for now that is not my intention! |
MutantTurkey | and for now, i intend to webmaster |
kb9vqf | Fine with me :) |
MutantTurkey | basically that whole long slew was about how I'd like to be the webmaster. |
kb9vqf | I appreciate the help |
MutantTurkey | because its obvious things are hecktic around here, you are busy and don't have time. my hobby is doing internet stuff. i have alot of time. |
*aledec has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | okay, kb9vqf i have a list of potential things i think should be moved to the website, or revised in the wiki. |
MutantTurkey | the Roadmap and ToDo are in effect the same, with similar purpose. It would be better to combine them, having them on the website means it is easier for users to see progress and future improvements. (this could also mean just a direct link to the wiki) |
Xu_R | oh. my. god. Epoch: 30000000 D: that's terrible |
MutantTurkey | DL |
Xu_R | sorry, just had to put that out there. >_< |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: OK |
kb9vqf | Dou you have the website running now? |
kb9vqf | The test one that is? |
kb9vqf | I didn't get a chance to look at it yet: |
MutantTurkey | yes |
MutantTurkey | http://96.245.17.6/ |
MutantTurkey | I've got to help my father purchase a laptop for his work. |
MutantTurkey | I might be on later. |
MutantTurkey | just let me know what you think |
Xu_R | "A Big thank you to all who have helped blah blah blah Lorem Ipsum Lorem Ipsum ask kb. Thanks!" |
Xu_R | +1 :P |
kb9vqf | Of course it will need editing ;-) |
kb9vqf | Errr...rewriting.... |
kb9vqf | But overall I'm looking at design and navigation for now |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: We have mailing lists twice |
kb9vqf | I'd kind of like a "Contact" or "Support" tab where we can have the IRC information |
kb9vqf | Also, a "Screenshots" tab would be nice |
kb9vqf | And maybe "Supported Distributions" |
kb9vqf | And a "Home" tab perhaps |
kb9vqf | Otherwise it looks good |
Piki | kb9vqf: maybe you can setup an email for you, samelian, and an email for the entire TDE team and have an email form on the site? |
MutantTurkey | yeah sorry, i Just copied the links over |
MutantTurkey | still are replacing them. |
kb9vqf | Piki: Sounds like a good idea |
kb9vqf | Also, I wonder if an online IRC chat window is a good idea or not? |
kb9vqf | Under the "Support" tab :) |
MutantTurkey | NO |
kb9vqf | OK |
kb9vqf | Just a thought |
MutantTurkey | redirect them to webchat.freenode.net |
MutantTurkey | webchat is great, i use it at school. straight foreward |
kb9vqf | That's all I was looking for |
kb9vqf | An easy way for an IRC novice to ask questions |
MutantTurkey | so, 1)supported distros YES 2) home? TDE logo sends you home 3) screen shots definitely 4) Contact/Support yes good idea |
Piki | not everyone knows to use the logo as a link to home, took me a long time to figure that out ;-) |
kb9vqf | I would not have though of that either |
Piki | we can use the freenode qwebirc to create an embedded webirc for the site that would auto-direct to this channel when it connects to freenode, maybe even set a custom nick |
Piki | just an idea |
kb9vqf | Asking people for a nick before connection would be a good ide |
kb9vqf | *idea |
kb9vqf | Also a little checkbox "I agree to the terms and conditions and will be polite" |
kb9vqf | Before it allows a connection ;-) |
Xu_R | samelian~ ah crap, he always leaves when I want to ask a question. |
Piki | kb9vqf: the custom nick can be set to changeable |
Xu_R | ah, nevermind. found the answer via the ml |
Piki | i don't think it allows an "I agree to ..." box, but it does have recaptcha |
Piki | it doesn't need a preset nick, it's optional |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: eh. I disagree. |
MutantTurkey | that is overboard. |
MutantTurkey | adding widgets to the page just isn't really appealing and loading java/whatever applets can be slow. but i may be wrong. |
MutantTurkey | I think better would be a link to "click here to access the IRC" and link to it easily. maybe set the channel and everything |
MutantTurkey | Piki, Xu_R, kb9vqf: can you all send me a few pictures of your Trinity Desktops? (with windows and such, but also one of just desktop) for the screenshots page? I'd like to get some variety. |
Piki | MutantTurkey: if you can do the ark linux packages for me ;-) |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: I'll do it in a little bit. I've got a Unity Linux VM instance running and i'm trying to sort out Qt3 stuff right now. |
Piki | haven't had a chance to finish my build server |
Xu_R | Do you mind if I just throw them in trinity-devel? |
Xu_R | i |
Xu_R | 'll make sure to make the subject "For MutantTurkey" XD |
Xu_R | (valentine's day special trololol) |
MutantTurkey | sure thing :D |
MutantTurkey | be mine? :p |
MutantTurkey | yeah over the ml or just at me, MutantTurkey@gmail so whatever works |
Xu_R | hehe :P |
Xu_R | anyone know what the mandriva version macro is? mdkversion or something? >_> |
Xu_R | never mind, found it. guessed it right ;) |
Piki | anybody in PA? i need a good psychiatric institution to put my mom in. everything bad that happens is automatically me, not her or the poor designers of the tech she uses, but me, and there's no convincing her otherwise, even if i never touched it, and i'm not dealing with it any more |
Piki | i need a place that will get her FIXED |

toxic_devil | samelian: ok |
toxic_devil | samelian: configure: WARNING: You are attempting to compile Trinity without the Trinity Qt Interface installed. Please install libtqtinterface-dev and try again! |
toxic_devil | WHY??? |
toxic_devil | все установленно |
*zcrayfish has joined #trinity-desktop | |

kb9vqf | Strangelv: Xorg power management is strange to say the least |
kb9vqf | I don't think Trinity has any control over it |
toxic_devil | kb9vqf: hi |
kb9vqf | Hello |
toxic_devil | kb9vqf: see?? |
kb9vqf | OK |
kb9vqf | Is this from SVN or the 3.5.12 tarballs? |
toxic_devil | kb9vqf: yes |
kb9vqf | ? |
kb9vqf | Is it from SVN? |
toxic_devil | kb9vqf: it is from svn |
kb9vqf | OK |
kb9vqf | Did you install tqtinterface, arts, and kdelibs from SVN as well? |
kb9vqf | And did you use CMake? |
toxic_devil | kb9vqf: wait |
toxic_devil | I'm not doing it |
toxic_devil | My friend is doing |
kb9vqf | Oh, OK |
kb9vqf | It looks like kdelibs is not installed |
kb9vqf | IMHO |
toxic_devil | tqtinterface,kdelibs from SVN |
toxic_devil | without arts |
toxic_devil | ./configure ... --without-arts |
toxic_devil | kdelibs and tqtinterface over cmake |
kb9vqf | And they were all installed to the same prefix? |
kb9vqf | samelian: Ever seen this with CMake? ^^^ |
kb9vqf | "checking if UIC has KDE plugins available... no" |
samelian | kb9vqf: what? |
kb9vqf | samelian: He seems to be running into the UIC KDE plugins problem when attempting to build kdebase from SVN |
kb9vqf | I have not seen this before |
kb9vqf | toxic_devil: You are building with Qt3 correct? |
kb9vqf | Your friend that is |
*Xu_R|School has joined #trinity-desktop | |
toxic_devil | samelian: c qt все впорядке |
toxic_devil | samelian: что есть правильно? |
samelian | toxic_devil: you using cmake or automake? |
kb9vqf | samelian: CMake |
samelian | what is problem, actually? |
toxic_devil | kdelibs and tqtinterface over cmake |
samelian | but what is the problem? |
toxic_devil | Вы чо упоролись ??? |
toxic_devil | автоконф уже умеет параметры вида -DWITH_*=ON ? )) |
toxic_devil | А??? |
toxic_devil | ку ку ку |
samelian | if you pass parameter -DWITH_*=ON to configure script, this not meaning that you using cmake :) |
samelian | cmake don't use configure |
toxic_devil | samelian: одну минуту |

MutantTurkey | hey |
MutantTurkey | i luckily have ssh setup so i can work on linux while away from home |
MutantTurkey | http://96.245.17.6/ |
MutantTurkey | there is almost zero php work, just an include for the header and footer. the top panel and link bar are both defined with css. |
MutantTurkey | other than that, straight up normal html. |
TokRa | I see |
MutantTurkey | the website is slow enough already, i saw no reason to make it even worse. Tim mentioned that simplicity was essential |
TokRa | Which is the goal to achieve? |
MutantTurkey | simple |
MutantTurkey | the pages are going to be relatively static. |
*TokRa 'd like to see some visual layout, a pictured design if available, to get the main idea and put it on the backend | |
TokRa | should there be some content management? |
MutantTurkey | i say no. |
MutantTurkey | the thing with a CMS is that is is just going to make everything more complicated. |
MutantTurkey | these web pages don't really change often. |
MutantTurkey | the pages are laid out simply enough to edit by hand. |
MutantTurkey | I would understand if we were constantly updating, but the only updates are releases. |
MutantTurkey | I think for such an simple website, there is no point of putting a whole CMS on it. |
TokRa | if so, is there a need to change the provided content at all? |
TokRa | MutantTurkey: your web version looks nice enough to me |
MutantTurkey | the code is beautiful |
MutantTurkey | well simple at least. I think we need a modern site, but don't need to use any sort of backend. |
MutantTurkey | especially since the web server is already slow as heck :/ |
MutantTurkey | the header has all the links, so it takes care of the problem. |
TokRa | and my objective would be... ? |
MutantTurkey | no idea. |
TokRa | :D |
MutantTurkey | I'm not sure why Tim thought i needed help. |
*TokRa neither | |
MutantTurkey | i understand his concern. because I am not good at php. |
MutantTurkey | but we don't really need anything complicated for this project. |
TokRa | I realize, the php programming is not even needed |
MutantTurkey | ? |
MutantTurkey | how else can we easily include header and footer? |
TokRa | I mean, the complicated programming |
MutantTurkey | oh |
MutantTurkey | samelian is helping me out with css when i have questions. from here mostly though, the layout is finished. |
MutantTurkey | I am working on adding the content and converting pages. |
MutantTurkey | I was also thinking about transferring certain pages from the wiki to the website, since some don't really belong on the wikil |
MutantTurkey | http://96.245.17.6/WIKICONVERT.txt |
*TokRa has nothing to do with this then? If I have understood you correctly. | |
MutantTurkey | I don't think I need your help at this point. |
MutantTurkey | if Tim and I decide that we need something more complicated I will ask you. |
TokRa | Sure |
MutantTurkey | I'm off to eat dinner. Hopefully i can stop in later. |
TokRa | :) |
MutantTurkey | cya |

kb9vqf | Glad to hear it |
Xu_R | samelian: can you add a dependency check for cmake on arts? It needs to check for the existence of ltdl.h so that it doesn't fail compiling later |

kb9vqf | Hmmm...M$ and Noki partnered |
kb9vqf | I wonder what that means for Qt |
kb9vqf | :-P |
MutantTurkey | D: i wonder |
MutantTurkey | nokia i don't like very much |
kb9vqf | Maybe TQt is a better thing that I first thought.... |
kb9vqf | Hmmm |
*kb9vqf worries about the future of Qt on X11 | |
samelian | kb9vqf: |
samelian | The Foundation has a license agreement with Nokia. This agreement ensures that the Qt will continue to be available under both the LGPL 2.1 and the GPL 3. Should Nokia discontinue the development of the Qt Free Edition under these licenses, then the Foundation has the right to release Qt under a BSD-style license or under other open source licenses. The agreement stays valid in case of a buy-out, a merger or bankruptcy. |
samelian | http://www.kde.org/community/whatiskde/kdefreeqtfoundation.php |
samelian | http://blog.qt.nokia.com/2011/02/12/nokia-new-strategic-direction-what-is-the-future-for-qt/ |
kb9vqf | Right |
kb9vqf | They didn't say very much there ;-) |
samelian | hehe |
kb9vqf | I don't think licensing is an issue now that Qt is LGPL |
samelian | I don't worry too much about qt future |
kb9vqf | I'm more concerned about continued Xorg support |
samelian | can be forked by community |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | But KDE4 was another "community effort" |
*kb9vqf shudders | |
samelian | haha |
samelian | we can still using qt4 |
samelian | qt3* |
kb9vqf | I like upstream corporate support of core libraries |
kb9vqf | Hopefully that will continue for a long, long time to come |
kb9vqf | :) |
kb9vqf | So I have a question |
kb9vqf | Shouldn't Qt3 be released under BSD because upstream support was dropped? |
kb9vqf | Or did they manage to weasel out of that |
samelian | hmm, good question |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: make it BSD then |
kb9vqf | So far I'm using GPL |
kb9vqf | I don't want to get in trouble with Qt |
kb9vqf | Err...Nokia |
Xu_R | but, what I'm thinking is that they consider Qt3 -> Qt4 just another version change |
kb9vqf | Right |
Xu_R | :| |
*kb9vqf should ask if they will extend the LGPL to Qt3 then | |
kb9vqf | If it is truly just a version change ;-) |
Xu_R | good idea |
samelian | kb9vqf: you want to develop closed source apps with qt3? :) |
MutantTurkey | what is wrong with gpl? |
MutantTurkey | BSD is preferable, but GPL and LGPL are fine as well. |
samelian | for open source movement, BSD, GPL, LGPL, is the same thing |
kb9vqf | samelian: Well, I might |
kb9vqf | I do have to eat after all ;-) |
kb9vqf | But mostly I would like Trinity to be usable for many different developers |
kb9vqf | Otherwise corporations will go where the license is best for them |
kb9vqf | I.e. KDE4 |
kb9vqf | :-P |
samelian | kb9vqf: for commercial applicatios qt4 is better anyway |
Xu_R | lol |
samelian | because support windows as well |
kb9vqf | TQt would support Windows in theory |
kb9vqf | Remember I've removed most of the backend code |
kb9vqf | It sits on top of Qt4 |
samelian | tqt, maybe, but no trinity |
kb9vqf | Not right now, no |
kb9vqf | But the GPL would prevent a commercial developer from even offering Trinity integration as an option |
kb9vqf | Because of the whole static linking problem |
MutantTurkey | samelian: BSD is more free. |
samelian | with GPL you can't use dynamic linking neither |
kb9vqf | Right |
samelian | BSD is more free, for who? |
kb9vqf | So there's the problem |
MutantTurkey | KDE4 is nasty. |
MutantTurkey | samelian: for everyone |
samelian | not exactly |
samelian | is more free for who use my work |
MutantTurkey | it is less restrictive than gpl |
samelian | but my work is not protected very well |
kb9vqf | I wouldn't care if Qt allowed GPL plugins to override file open/save dialogs and such |
kb9vqf | But AFAIK they don't |
kb9vqf | Requiring static or dynamic linkage :( |
kb9vqf | It leads to a very fragmented user experience |
kb9vqf | Each application has its own open/save/print dialogs |
MutantTurkey | open/save/print dialogs in linux SUCKS. |
MutantTurkey | I hate them all. |
kb9vqf | Well I like the Trinity ones ;-) |
MutantTurkey | I haven't played with them yet :p |
samelian | gnome open dialog is not so bad, if you know how to use it |
kb9vqf | I hate it personally |
kb9vqf | Always takes way too long to select a file |
kb9vqf | And that $%!^# autocomplete keeps getting in the way |
kb9vqf | Or freezing |
samelian | gnome open dialog support autocomplete like bash |
samelian | just hit tab |
kb9vqf | It also does an automatic drop-down autocomplete |
kb9vqf | Which when you try to go to /usr/bin/ it hangs |
kb9vqf | Too many little files in that directory |
MutantTurkey | yeah. |
MutantTurkey | its no good. |
MutantTurkey | honestly i just like the good old windows dialog. |
samelian | yes, but I do not need to open files from /usr/bin, in gimp :) |
kb9vqf | Hehe |
kb9vqf | I have to do this all the time in Firefox |
MutantTurkey | why? its so standard that i don't need to figure it out. |
samelian | MutantTurkey: window open fille suport autocomplete? :) |
MutantTurkey | no idea, it'd be nice |
kb9vqf | We should make a BSD licensed library for open/save dialogs |
kb9vqf | A very small one |
kb9vqf | All it does is call the appropriate backend dialog |
MutantTurkey | i would like windows 95 dialog + autocompletion + image previews and video previews |
kb9vqf | Linux apps can link against it |
kb9vqf | Without license worries |
samelian | kb9vqf: i'm pretty sure that is not possible |
kb9vqf | Why? |
samelian | because GPL viral behaviour |
kb9vqf | For file open/save a simple text mode interface will suffice |
kb9vqf | Internally that is |
kb9vqf | There could be a public BSD library |
kb9vqf | It sends text mode commands to the appropriate non-BSD backend library |
kb9vqf | Thus breaking the GPL virus :) |
samelian | you can't release as BSD an application which linking to qt3, for example |
kb9vqf | But it's not |
kb9vqf | It uses only basic LGPL system libraries |
kb9vqf | To talk to a non-free backend library |
kb9vqf | GPL backend library, that is |
samelian | in this case, you file open dialog will have strange look |
kb9vqf | Well think about it |
kb9vqf | If I write an application all I want to do is display a file open/save dialog starting in a directory |
kb9vqf | So the BSD backend library does this: |
kb9vqf | OPEN IN START DIRECTORY /bin/foo |
kb9vqf | The GPL backend library receives that command and calls the appropriate Qt3/Gnome/GTK code |
kb9vqf | Up pops the appropriate dialog |
kb9vqf | When done, the GPL library fetches the selected path and sends this: |
kb9vqf | OPEN CONFIRMED FILE /bin/foo/bar |
kb9vqf | Then the BSD library passes that along to the original application |
kb9vqf | Two separate libraries entirely |
samelian | you must communicate with backend somehow, socket or pipe or dbus |
kb9vqf | Right |
kb9vqf | Simple pipe |
kb9vqf | Or temporary file for all I care |
kb9vqf | Something BSD licensed |
kb9vqf | I don't know if that would gain any traction in the open source community though :-/ |
kb9vqf | It would be nice to have unified dialogs |
kb9vqf | Without LD_PRELOAD hacks and other nastiness :-) |
samelian | i think this must be standardized by freedesktop |
kb9vqf | Good idea |
kb9vqf | Most of their stuff is text mode anyway |
kb9vqf | The only problem I see at all is special options like Gimp provides |
kb9vqf | But my answer would be to provide several optional widgets on the platform-specific dialog |
samelian | dialog must be something generic |
kb9vqf | Right |
kb9vqf | Exactly |
kb9vqf | Otherwise it gets confusing for the users |
samelian | and can be populated with widgets, driven by caller application |
kb9vqf | Yes, but only over the text mode interface |
samelian | a xml file |
kb9vqf | so DISPLAY OPTION_BOX Item1 Item2 :) |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | That would be better |
kb9vqf | And it skirts the GPL virus nicely |
kb9vqf | :) |
samelian | hehe |
kb9vqf | If we can say "here's a standard public domain library for all Linux dialogs" then people might just use it! |
kb9vqf | They don't have to worry about platform specific details |
samelian | like kerrnel API |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | In fact I think OpenOffice did something like this already |
samelian | we can open and use e device without any restriction |
kb9vqf | But far more limited |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | Each toolkit knows about a basic set of widgets |
kb9vqf | File selection views, drop down lists, checkboxes, etc. |
kb9vqf | So we just specify which ones we want shown |
kb9vqf | And the backend modules make it look familiar for the selected desktop |
samelian | i think that the position of widgets must be predictible |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | And controlled by the desktop environment in use |
kb9vqf | Not by the application itself |
samelian | the position and meaning of widgets must be standardized as well |
kb9vqf | Right |
kb9vqf | I would leave that to the individual desktop environments |
kb9vqf | That way each application will blend in with the rest of the system |
kb9vqf | But meaning must definitely be standardized :) |
samelian | hehe, this is a long shot, i guess :) |
kb9vqf | Of course |
kb9vqf | But I like it :) |
kb9vqf | I'm sick and tired of seeing Gnome popups |
kb9vqf | Under KDE |
kb9vqf | And vice versa |
kb9vqf | Not to mention the horrid Qt dialogs :-P |
samelian | hehe |
kb9vqf | If it's easy to use, standardized, and supports all desktops I think people will adopt it |
samelian | actually we have already something like dialog, xdialog and kdialog |
kb9vqf | Right |
samelian | but no one use it |
kb9vqf | So make it a bit more powerful and standardize it |
kb9vqf | It's not powerful enough |
kb9vqf | The dialogs cannot be customized |
kb9vqf | Also, there is no interface library |
kb9vqf | So they are hard to use |
samelian | yes, must be a transparent api call |
kb9vqf | Right |
kb9vqf | No one wants to play with pipes and temporary files just to pop up a dialog :) |
samelian | hehe, for sure |
samelian | QProcess and friends |
kb9vqf | I'll put something on the Wiki eventually :) |
kb9vqf | My initial thoughts |
kb9vqf | It's for the future anyway |
*TokRa has joined #trinity-desktop | |
samelian | kb9vqf: is something wrong with search engine? I can't search in documentation |
*TokRa has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | samelian: Rebooting the server ATM |
kb9vqf | Trying to stabilize it :) |
kb9vqf | samelian: It should be up for the moment |
kb9vqf | I still have to change out a defective network card |
kb9vqf | So it will probably go down again for a half hour or so |
samelian | it's ok not, thx |
samelian | now* |
kb9vqf | sed/defective/obsolete/g |
kb9vqf | :) |
samelian | kb9vqf: I think we need a trinity assistant :) |
kb9vqf | ? |
samelian | like qt assistant |
kb9vqf | Oh |
*kb9vqf googles qt assistant | |
kb9vqf | Yes we do :) |
samelian | your search engine is a little... |
kb9vqf | Odd? |
kb9vqf | Quirky? |
samelian | hehe |
samelian | i search for something, but he show me another things |
kb9vqf | I'm no google, that's for sure :0 |
samelian | ATM I search UDSEntry structure |
kb9vqf | Remeber not everthing may be documented |
kb9vqf | A lot of the "weird" classes do not have doc pages |
samelian | actually UDSEntry is QListValue<something> |
kb9vqf | Right |
samelian | kde4's UDSEntry is a little better |
kb9vqf | I can see where that may not have an entry |
samelian | I think we must to update internal API |
samelian | kde4 do this: |
samelian | entry.insert(KIO::UDSEntry::UDS_ACCESS_TIME, sb->atime); |
samelian | entry.insert(KIO::UDSEntry::UDS_MODIFICATION_TIME, sb->mtime); |
samelian | entry.insert(KIO::UDSEntry::UDS_CREATION_TIME, sb->createtime); |
samelian | in trinity is longer and unfriendly |
*kb9vqf does not know what UDSEntry is | |
samelian | atom.m_uds = KIO::UDS_NAME; |
samelian | atom.m_str = syntax.last(); |
samelian | entry.append(atom); |
samelian | atom.m_uds = KIO::UDS_FILE_TYPE; |
samelian | //atom.m_long = S_IFREG; |
samelian | entry.append(atom); |
samelian | etc etc |
samelian | this is used for listDir and stat, in kioslaves |
kb9vqf | Feel free to add the ::insert method to it |
kb9vqf | As long as it does not conflict with an existing ::insert method |
kb9vqf | :) |
samelian | hehe |
samelian | this is for long term suggestion |
kb9vqf | Make sure you DOCUMENT it as well :) |
kb9vqf | With Doxygen tags |
kb9vqf | Oh, OK |
samelian | I won't broke the API right now :)_ |
kb9vqf | Sure |
samelian | sometime I will dig in kde4 sources |
samelian | to check what we can still from him |
samelian | s/still/steal |
kb9vqf | Sure |
kb9vqf | Good idea |
samelian | kb9vqf: you think we will need a ssh class, other than fish/sftp kioslave? |
samelian | i can wrap ssh object in a nice class |
kb9vqf | fish:// is quite nice |
kb9vqf | samelian: ^^ |
kb9vqf | I have not had any problems with it since 3.5.11 |
samelian | i know, but can be used just for filemanagement |
samelian | for me crashing almost everytime |
kb9vqf | Are you on Trinity or 3.5.10? |
kb9vqf | 3.5.10 has problems |
samelian | svn |
kb9vqf | Not good :-P |
kb9vqf | I have never had it crash |
kb9vqf | If you want to try creating a replacement go right ahead :) |
samelian | for this reason I want to rewrite it from scratch |
samelian | i just want to know if would be nice to have a class for ssh manipulation, other than kioslave |
kb9vqf | I don't know |
kb9vqf | More classes would be better I suppose |
tbottu | Services will be going down shortly. Estimated restoration in 30 minutes |

samelian | kb9vqf: you know, trinity have any class for parsing .ini style files? |
samelian | I need to parse ~/.ssh/config file |
kb9vqf | I think it does |
kb9vqf | But I don't remember what it is called |
samelian | i see, I will find it |
kb9vqf | Look up KConfig |
kb9vqf | I think that might lead you to it :) |
samelian | my kio_sftp is almost workig |
kb9vqf | Good |
samelian | it can already list directories, get, put, copy |
samelian | now I must to implement details, like authentication and using .ssh/config settings |
kb9vqf | OK |
samelian | kb9vqf: I think we must to delay next release for few months |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | You are correct |
kb9vqf | That is what I mentioned earlier as well |
samelian | seems that we have a lot things to do/fix |
kb9vqf | We need the CMake port before release |
kb9vqf | And yes :) |
kb9vqf | Remember it was just me for a few years |
kb9vqf | :) |
kb9vqf | I can't keep up |
samelian | hehe |
samelian | you have been too sticky to ubuntu |
samelian | for this reason I missed your project |
kb9vqf | Well, I'm slowly "ungluing" from Ubuntu |
kb9vqf | With the help of all the different distribution packagers that have joined the project :) |
kb9vqf | I just don't have the cross-distro knowledge to do that by myself |
kb9vqf | Seems people noticed that QuickBuild is offline, and very fast too |
kb9vqf | Which is a good sign :) |
samelian | hehe |
kb9vqf | Lots of users out there |
Xu_R | a growing userbase :D |
kb9vqf | Yup |
kb9vqf | Seems that way |
samelian | maybe sometime more developers |
kb9vqf | But we need those bugs fixed in order to keep it growing |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | I hope so |
kb9vqf | I think once the Qt4 port is done people may join back in |
kb9vqf | IIRC Debian is removing Qt3 from mainline soon |
kb9vqf | Which is a problem |
Xu_R | Qt4 porting is a high priority |
Xu_R | SuSE removed it from their mainstream already |
Xu_R | and let it live in KDE:KDE3 |
kb9vqf | I'm working as fast as I can :-P |
Xu_R | Fedora has Qt3 - and that's it :P |
kb9vqf | It's no small project |
Xu_R | very true |
samelian | kb9vqf: I think there is no reason to rush |
samelian | we are only two active developers |
samelian | so, if someone is unpatient, he can contribute |
samelian | hmm, .ssh/config is not exactly .ini format |
samelian | I will need to parse it manually |
kb9vqf | Xu_R, samelian: http://imgur.com/tzv9z |
kb9vqf | It is really coming along |
kb9vqf | Just working through some more rendering glitches/failures |
Xu_R | woah |
samelian | nice |
Xu_R | that's more than I expected :D |
kb9vqf | Hehe |
Xu_R | in such a short time too - kb9vqf, you rock! |
kb9vqf | The biggest irritation I have right now is that JPEG/PNG/etc. embedded images do not display |
kb9vqf | e.g. in khelpcenter |
Xu_R | :-\ |
kb9vqf | That and some painting problems in the pager |
kb9vqf | window icons, etc. |
kb9vqf | But overall the entire system is much more stable than last time I posted a screenshot :D |
samelian | impressive, for sure |
kb9vqf | Hehe |
kb9vqf | I just loaded up Qt4 designer |
kb9vqf | Looks like a tinkertoy compared to the Trinity desktop in the background :) |
kb9vqf | The widgets are significantly larger than the Trinity ones |

MutantTurkey | finally back home |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: ToRka mentioned that you wanted him to help me out with the website, anything specific you wanted from him? he seemed a bit confused |
*Space_Man has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: I was just thinking some sort of rudimentary MySQL-driven CMS |
kb9vqf | For the news articles, etc. |
kb9vqf | To make it easy for the Website maintinence team to post/delete items |
MutantTurkey | hmmm |
MutantTurkey | we talked about that a bit. |
kb9vqf | He can handle the backend stuff |
MutantTurkey | not for static content though right? |
kb9vqf | Server speed isn't the issue, network speed is :) |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: No |
MutantTurkey | network speed is our problem? ah :o |
MutantTurkey | what connection do you have? |
kb9vqf | 768kbit up |
MutantTurkey | luckily the layout is simple enough to easily slap on a news feed. |
kb9vqf | It's actually one of the best connections available in my area |
kb9vqf | The USA can't seem to offer decent Internet service :-/ |
MutantTurkey | ah |
MutantTurkey | I've got a low level verizon fios plan. |
MutantTurkey | i get around 600 up i think |
kb9vqf | Heh |
kb9vqf | I get 10MBit down |
kb9vqf | But noone likes to offer uplink |
MutantTurkey | I get like 2.5 down |
MutantTurkey | sometimes i thought you could ask them to like switch it up, give you more up than down? |
*kb9vqf has thought about asking if they would donate more uplink bandwidth to the open source project | |
kb9vqf | I haven't tried though |
kb9vqf | I think they're too worried about customers pirating movies and such |
kb9vqf | Which is a shame when there is a legitimate use |
MutantTurkey | hmmmm |
MutantTurkey | yeah I'd say ask them |
MutantTurkey | because even 1 or 2M up would be great. |
MutantTurkey | what about load balancing with two servers? I could get a box setup at my house. |
kb9vqf | I'd thought about that as well |
kb9vqf | The problem becomes the Wiki |
kb9vqf | TokRa has a ridiculous amount of upload bandwidth |
kb9vqf | But he doesn't have the build farm that I do |
kb9vqf | :-P |
kb9vqf | Seems the project has enough resources, but they are scattered everywhere |
kb9vqf | Oh well |
MutantTurkey | what is the problem with the wiki? |
kb9vqf | Content sync |
MutantTurkey | or heres an idea: serve the main site from my place or Torka |
MutantTurkey | then the wiki can be served from you |
kb9vqf | I had thought of that as well |
MutantTurkey | just setup another subdomain and the IP switch is easy |
kb9vqf | I dunno |
MutantTurkey | the offer stands if you want to try it out. |
kb9vqf | Let's replace the current site first |
MutantTurkey | yes |
kb9vqf | I'll contact my ISP |
kb9vqf | and see if I can work something out |
MutantTurkey | i added the release page, which is basically from the wiki. |
MutantTurkey | good thinking, if you are a long time customer with an real problem, they might be willing to help |
kb9vqf | Definitely a long term customer :) |
MutantTurkey | good. |
MutantTurkey | you can always pull the "well I was thinking about switching to _____ because they offer better uplink or whatever" card |
kb9vqf | They know better ;-) |
kb9vqf | They have the best service around here |
kb9vqf | Actually I think they bumped me to almost 1MBit up recently |
MutantTurkey | good |
kb9vqf | But I have to reserve some bandwidth for overhead |
MutantTurkey | right. |
MutantTurkey | the wiki seems to be the slowest portion of the website |
kb9vqf | Too much graphics and CSS |
kb9vqf | Honestly I've noticed it being somewhat slow internally as well |
kb9vqf | But it's not the server |
kb9vqf | Load (disk/CPU/RAM) is nowhere near maxed out during page load |
kb9vqf | Then again, almost every Wiki I've tried is somewhat slow on load |
MutantTurkey | what wiki software is that? |
kb9vqf | FOSWiki |
MutantTurkey | hmmm |
MutantTurkey | why that vs MediaWiki say? (i don't really know the differences) |
MutantTurkey | maybe we could cut down on the graphics or something. |
kb9vqf | Heh |
kb9vqf | There's some discussion in the IRC logs on that |
kb9vqf | It's a common question |
MutantTurkey | also what sort of server you got running there? |
kb9vqf | A large Opteron 8-core |
MutantTurkey | I'm thinking of investing in a good server setup |
MutantTurkey | power usage a bit high? |
kb9vqf | Heh |
kb9vqf | 4.5KW peak |
MutantTurkey | D: |
kb9vqf | That's with the build farm though |
MutantTurkey | my atom server is 30W peak haahahahah |
MutantTurkey | but for a static website i don't need anything at all. |
kb9vqf | But I can do scientific supercomputing with my setup... :) |
kb9vqf | That's its primary purpose actually |
MutantTurkey | agreed |
MutantTurkey | i can barely crunch numbers |
MutantTurkey | atom is the joke of the CPU world |
MutantTurkey | wanna switch over to an ARM board. |
kb9vqf | ARM isn't nearly as well supported though on the application end AFAIK |
kb9vqf | It's not a common build target |
kb9vqf | Well, not as popular as AMD64 that is |
MutantTurkey | yeah |
MutantTurkey | but i don't need anything |
MutantTurkey | just apache or lighttpd + a kernel. |
MutantTurkey | debian has an arm port so they actually keep alot of stuff from breaking |
MutantTurkey | debian <3 they do so much great work |
kb9vqf | Yes they do :) |
kb9vqf | There is really nothing that can beat the Opterons for raw FLOPS |
kb9vqf | Even Intel's server chips still fall short |
MutantTurkey | yeah |
MutantTurkey | I need something in the middle |
kb9vqf | The're not cheap though :-P |
kb9vqf | Well, how about a non-Opteron AMD chip> |
kb9vqf | ? |
MutantTurkey | I don't really need flops i need low power. |
kb9vqf | Right |
MutantTurkey | beagle board cluster? |
kb9vqf | I use a NSLU2 for really low power stuff :) |
kb9vqf | Runs Debian |
MutantTurkey | NSLU2? |
kb9vqf | http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&cd=4&ved=0CEIQFjAD&url=http%3A%2F%2Fen.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2FNSLU2&rct=j&q=nslu2&ei=OVNZTcCNI8H_lgfwzLX0Bw&usg=AFQjCNFr2ynqi5xJeElHp5OQfrrLMm3CTg&sig2=pvkQXP8Q3FQkxv-EMMRQMw&cad=rja |
kb9vqf | Sorry |
kb9vqf | en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NSLU2 |
kb9vqf | Either that or some of the new wireless routers have pretty powerful chips inside |
kb9vqf | But I think I may be on the low power end of what you are looking for |
kb9vqf | You could try a standard laptop |
MutantTurkey | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panda_Board |
MutantTurkey | check this out |
kb9vqf | Neat |
*kb9vqf knows nothing about that ARM device though | |
MutantTurkey | its 1ghz |
MutantTurkey | power ful as anything |
kb9vqf | I'd want to see some comparisons against a 1GHz AMD/Intel chip |
MutantTurkey | most androids have the same chip in them. |
MutantTurkey | I think it kicks butt. |
kb9vqf | Cool |
kb9vqf | Give it a shot :) |
*kb9vqf would be tempted to get one to play with | |
*MutantTurkey_ has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey_ | sorry |
MutantTurkey_ | internet is fishy |
MutantTurkey_ | really fishy |
MutantTurkey_ | keeps cutting out |

MutantTurkey_ | hey TokRa |

Piki | here's an idea: once TDE has gotten the main stuff (cmake, tqt, etc) completed, perhaps we could get a Windows port going? kdelibs and core apps first, then go from there, much like they're doing with KDE4 |
Piki | just to help windows-users get used to linux-type apps before switching, and to provide a little comfort to those of us who are forced to use windows |
kb9vqf | I wouldn't mind |
kb9vqf | BUT |
kb9vqf | Windows lacks some features that Trinity uses |
kb9vqf | So it wouldn't exactly be simple :-P |
Piki | that's why i'm saying to wait until after the main stuff is done, to have more attention to devote to the windows stuff ;-) |
kb9vqf | Of course :) |
Piki | and if i can convince hp to replace my cpu with one that can do virtualization (they're saying they don't support that because it's a custom ordered machine that was ordered "as is" from the vendor), i can run my restore discs to get win7, shrink it down, and create a vbox vdi image for it to help test the win port |
Piki | either that, or someone can get me a 32bit windows to install in vbox to do the testing ;-P |
Piki | kb9vqf: the good new is, i've almost nothing to do now through wednesday night, so i can get started on my TDE builds and Qt stuff |
Piki | start learning some stuff |
kb9vqf | Sounds good |
kb9vqf | :) |
Piki | kb9vqf: for someone just interested in writing apps for tqt, would it be better to learn Qt3 or Qt4? |
kb9vqf | Qt3 |
Piki | alright, that's what i'll concentrate on first |
kb9vqf | Qt4 can be used to some extent but it is highly discouraged |
kb9vqf | Because TQt does not isolate Qt4 calls |
kb9vqf | Leading to rewritten applications in the future :( |
Piki | then once i've mastered qt3, i'll start on qt4 |
Xu_R | whoo :D The power went out in school around 1300 :P but they still let us out at 1410... programming class was boring XD |
Xu_R | LOL for mageia - they opened up the mirrors: |
Xu_R | "the artwork is either very nice ( the part that the art-team was able to produce, kudos for them ) or less nice ( the part were packagers discovered that kpaint is like ms paint " |

Xu_R | kb9vqf: you there? I may be having a problem with kdelibs |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: |
kb9vqf | Yes |
Xu_R | samelian: this might apply to you too, you there? |
Xu_R | ok, two seperate errors, two seperate distributions |
Xu_R | Mandriva 2010.1: http://lincom.pastebin.com/PM7tRST5 |
Xu_R | Fedora 14: http://lincom.pastebin.com/AUnbaQzn |
Xu_R | scroll down to the very bottom for the error |
*K`zan has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | Ooo, nice |
kb9vqf | samelian: That's in your territory :) |
kb9vqf | Looks like CMake didn't add/detect the Xorg linker flags |
Xu_R | the Fedora 14 one, I'm still looking for some package to provide that |
kb9vqf | I remember making the approriate change in Automake |
Xu_R | the Mandriva 2010.1 one, that's you kb9vqf ;) |
samelian | I will check |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: You are right |
samelian | Xu_R: which compiler/ |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: In kdeui/kshortcutdialog_simple.h see if there is an #include "tqlabel.h" anywhere |
kb9vqf | If not, add it and try again |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: I'm building this straight from SVN ;) *goes to look in websvn* |
Xu_R | samelian: I think gcc 44, lemme check |
kb9vqf | Oh, OK |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: Those are autogenerated files |
kb9vqf | It won't be there :-P |
Xu_R | *sigh* lol |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: Can you send me kdeui/kshortcutdialog_simple.h ? |
kb9vqf | via pastebin? |
Xu_R | samelian: correction, gcc 4.5.1 |
kb9vqf | I need to know what your uic is up to :) |
Xu_R | and for mandriva, gcc 4.4.3 |
Xu_R | (damn, two different ones...) |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: will do a `cat kdeui/kshortcutdialog_simple.h` and pastebin it |
kb9vqf | That'll work |
Xu_R | YAY! the latest OBS allows me to, err... "save my buildroots" - searching the buildroot now |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: http://lincom.pastebin.com/jMaf8saV |
kb9vqf | Hmmm |
kb9vqf | I think I see the problem |
*kb9vqf goes to look in SVN | |
Xu_R | ok, fixed the Fedora failing problem - found libX11-devel that I completely missed XD |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: if you fix anything in svn, shout out so I can trigger services :) |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: On Mandriva when was tqtinterface built? |
kb9vqf | From what SVN revision? |
Xu_R | kb9vqf:1218077 |
kb9vqf | Hmm |
kb9vqf | That should be OK |
kb9vqf | Do you have uic-tqt on that system then? |
kb9vqf | It should be in /usr/bin or similar |
Xu_R | yup - gets installed in a clean buildroot every time |
*MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: I suspect that the uic command line is incorrect when kshortcutdialog_simple.ui is parsed |
kb9vqf | Can you find the exact command that was run and send it to me? |
kb9vqf | It should have been run when cmake entered kdeui/ |
Xu_R | wait - I think I might have found something related to this... hmm... *fixes stuff* |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: i think i will convert all the images on the website to jpg. more lossy, but will reduce size by alot. |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: you can see the exact command - see line 2842 in the Mandriva 2010.1 logfile |
Xu_R | that I pastebinned |
*zcrayfish has left #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: No, that's the GCC command line |
kb9vqf | I'm looking for the (hidden) command that includes kshortcutdialog_simple.ui |
kb9vqf | in its parameters |
Xu_R | I don't find anything here... :( |
kb9vqf | It has to be run somehow |
Xu_R | ah |
Xu_R | 2476 |
Xu_R | cd /home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILD/kdelibs-3.5.12.99.rev1218078/kdeui && /usr/bin/cmake -DQT_UIC_EXECUTABLE:FILEPATH=/usr/lib/qt3/bin/uic -DTDE_QTPLUGINS_DIR:FILEPATH= -DUI_FILE:FILEPATH=/home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILD/kdelibs-3.5.12.99.rev1218078/kdeui/kshortcutdialog_simple.ui -P /home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILD/kdelibs-3.5.12.99.rev1218078/cmake/modules/tde_uic.cmake |
kb9vqf | Yup |
kb9vqf | There it is |
kb9vqf | -DQT_UIC_EXECUTABLE:FILEPATH=/usr/lib/qt3/bin/uic |
kb9vqf | That's the problem |
kb9vqf | -DQT_UIC_EXECUTABLE:FILEPATH=/usr/lib/qt3/bin/uic-tqt |
kb9vqf | That's probably what it should be |
Xu_R | or /usr/bin/uic-tqt |
kb9vqf | Right |
kb9vqf | Just DON'T CALL uic DIRECTLY |
kb9vqf | :-) |
Xu_R | hehe |
kb9vqf | HTH |
Xu_R | yay for success :P |
Xu_R | brb dinner |
Piki | any suggestions for a qt-based app for converting to mpeg? can't seem to find one, and been looking for one to convert flash over to rockbox |
MutantTurkey | Piki: do it by cli? :/ |
Piki | MutantTurkey: ffmpeg doesn't seem to like when i try to specify a screen size |
MutantTurkey | what format to what format |
MutantTurkey | I can help probably. |
Piki | flv to mpeg |
*field_it1 has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Piki | or whatever format youtube uses |
MutantTurkey | flv hmmm |
MutantTurkey | should be something like ffmpeg -i lol.flv -ab 56 -ar 22050 -b 500 -s 320×240 lol.mpg |
MutantTurkey | the size should be in the format WIDTHxHEIGHT |
MutantTurkey | like 2000x1000 or whatevs |
TokRa | MMC |
TokRa | http://www.miksoft.net/mobileMediaConverter.htm |
TokRa | Works under Linux and Windows |
Piki | MutantTurkey: yah, and it didn't like that before when i tried it. i was using "ffmpeg -i lol.flv -s 320x240 lol.mpg, and i specified the size (in pixels) of my mp3 player screen, and it still went off the edges of the screen |
Piki | TokRa: qt based? |
TokRa | Hm, don't know |
TokRa | It uses ffmpeg and mencoder as backend |
TokRa | as many other converters do |
Piki | yeah, that's what i've been finding, just don't want to be dragging in a bunch of GTK deps, currently grabbing huge amounts of files, and about to start with TDE, so i can use all the space i can get |
Piki | and i tend to lean toward qt anyway |
Piki | found the requirements, it uses gtk |
MutantTurkey | D: |
MutantTurkey | why not make a trinity app for that? |
samelian | MutantTurkey: who? :) |
samelian | we are overloaded already |
Piki | MutantTurkey: if i knew how to program and could get ffmpeg working |
MutantTurkey | I could do that one :p |
samelian | is not so simple as you expect |
MutantTurkey | samelian: i think i could do it tbh. |
MutantTurkey | anyway, was just a thought. |
samelian | Xu_R: i think the problem with uic are not solved :) |
samelian | inside, tde_uic.cmake run tqt-replace, as uic-tqt do |
kb9vqf | samelian: Do you know how to get the active QPainter from a QWidget? |
kb9vqf | I can't seem to find a way |
kb9vqf | This is under Qt4 |
samelian | kb9vqf: QWidget inherit QPaintDevice |
kb9vqf | Right |
kb9vqf | I've tried QPaintDevice::paintEngine()->painter() but it always comes back NULL |
kb9vqf | samelian: ^^^ |
samelian | you can't rewrite paintEvent? |
kb9vqf | I'm more interested in catching a specific case where multiple painters are being used on a single paint device |
kb9vqf | And no |
kb9vqf | This is for a much lower level function |
samelian | Xu_R: you using out-of-source mode? |
*dlsp has joined #trinity-desktop | |
*TokRa has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Xu_R | back |
dlsp | I'm having issues connecting with your servers (getting a GPG key and for actually installing). They don't seem to respond to pinging either (keyserver.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net, ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net). Is there an issue with the servers or is the problem with me? |
Xu_R | dlsp: I think QuickBuild is down atm - ping kb9vqf |
Xu_R | samelian: ok, hold on. |
Xu_R | and no. |
Xu_R | (i think?) |
kb9vqf | I've been dealing with Bug 439 for too long now :( |
tbottu | Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=439 blo, P5, ---, kb9vqf, ASSI, http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/ does not respond |
kb9vqf | I need replacement parts |
kb9vqf | They will take a few days to arrive |
samelian | Xu_R: currently tde_uic.cmake working well only on out-of-source mode |
kb9vqf | dlsp: see bug 439 |
Xu_R | samelian: is there a switch for out-of-source mode? |
dlsp | kb9vqf: ok will do |
samelian | Xu_R: "cmake ." is in-source |
samelian | "cd /tmp/build; cmake /my/src/dir" is out-of-source |
Xu_R | ah. I've been doing in-source |
Xu_R | I guess I'll have to switch to out-of-source, eh? >_< |
samelian | yes, at least for the moment |
samelian | for kde4 out-of-source is mandatory |
samelian | for a good reason, i think |
samelian | but I will try to maintain in-source as well |
kb9vqf | Ubuntu builds out of source too |
kb9vqf | It's just a good idea |
kb9vqf | :) |
samelian | yes, is much cleaner |
Xu_R | ah, ok. |
Xu_R | I made a %cmake_trinity macro - now to adjust it ;) |
Xu_R | adjusting that should make all trinity cmake builds out-of-source |
samelian | Xu_R: I think David C. Rankin made the same mistake, please explain to him what to do |
Xu_R | ok |
Xu_R | he started bugging gcc and opensuse-kde3 about it |
*aidaho has joined #trinity-desktop | |
samelian | hehe |
Xu_R | I told him it might be cmake and we're investigating - so i'm going to email him in a bit :) |
Xu_R | samelian: do we use SKIP RPATH? |
samelian | no way |
Xu_R | or is that automatically assumed? |
Xu_R | ah. ok. no that. gotit. |
samelian | skip rpath will stop you building kdelib, i think |
samelian | rpath is erased at install phase, automatically |
Xu_R | ah |
Xu_R | awesome :D |
Xu_R | good |
Xu_R | that means I have to avoid using %cmake on Mandriva at all costs - they use the skip rpath |
Xu_R | this is why I made my own %cmake_trinity :D |
samelian | hehe |
samelian | at least, skip rpath should't used when built executable is used for generating other things |
Xu_R | heh. Fedora caught on to that. Mandriva's being a bit slow ;) |
Xu_R | done. now to see the results... of course, now I have to wait on a rebuild of everything +_+ |
samelian | Xu_R: http://trinity-users.pearsoncomputing.net/?0::575 |
samelian | also, read http://www.cmake.org/cmake/help/cmake-2-8-docs.html#variable:CMAKE_SKIP_RPATH |
Xu_R | great. David Rankin ran his mouth on opensuse-kde3 and caused Ilya to reconsider making KDE:KDE3 move to Trinity -GAH |
*dlsp has left #trinity-desktop | |
Xu_R | ...this is usually where I wish I had a faster server with more memory and 8 cores. |
Xu_R | the build is taking sooo long |
Xu_R | samelian: ah, and thanks for the links |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: So now let me guess, Ilya doesn't want to move to Trinity now? |
Xu_R | not at the moment now. |
kb9vqf | What the heck did Rankin say?!?? |
Xu_R | "Ilya, All, The Trinity source will not build with gcc >= 4.5. See: http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=47723 The open question is whether it is gcc or Trinity that needs to be fixed. I don't know which gcc 11.4 will use, but keep this in mind if it has 4.5 or later." |
Xu_R | Ilya: "KDE3 in KDE:KDE3 builds well with GCC 4.5. Thus I think we should not upgrade to Trinity right now." |
kb9vqf | Nice |
kb9vqf | :-P |
kb9vqf | It's a simple fix too |
kb9vqf | Grrrrrr |
Xu_R | yea. I've been building with Fedora 14 for a while too, and if it built with gcc 4.5.1 there, then... ::facepalm:: |
samelian | i will switch to gcc 4.5, to check if everything can be compiled with it |
Xu_R | lol |
Xu_R | my response: " Ok - This is a cmake error, DON'T PANIC. Everything builds well with GCC 4.5." |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: I made the change in my local SVN tree |
Xu_R | or in SVN |
kb9vqf | It'll be commited along with the remainder of the Tqt fixes soon |
Xu_R | (w/e lol) |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: ok. |
kb9vqf | I would suggest damage control if you can :-P |
kb9vqf | It is literally a two line fix to one file |
Xu_R | yea - I'm trying to damage control as much as I can right now - which means I really need a deadline of Wednesday for kdebase if I want Ilya to inspect it. |
kb9vqf | Hmm |
kb9vqf | I'll commit what I can to SVN in the next day or so |
kb9vqf | But it won't be perfect |
kb9vqf | We are smack dab in the middle of the Trinity development cycle ATM |
Xu_R | and a deadline of Wednesday so that mr. rankin can use what I have to make his Arch Linux pkgbuilds |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: ah, true. |
kb9vqf | Remember release isn't planned until early summer |
kb9vqf | Lots of bad code in SVN ATM |
Xu_R | The way I see it, as soon as everything builds successfully, I'm going to freeze it entirely and mark it as 3.5.12.99. |
kb9vqf | NOT A GOOD IDEA |
samelian | kb9vqf: I propose to maintain two branches |
kb9vqf | SVN has not even been functionality checked yet |
kb9vqf | samelian: Maybe |
Xu_R | o. Should I just keep running services until 3.5.13 then? o_o |
kb9vqf | No |
kb9vqf | But do a functionality check before freezing it! |
Xu_R | oh. I was going to do that anyway. |
kb9vqf | Make sure all the kdelibs and kdebase apps actually *work* properly :) |
kb9vqf | That's my biggest problem |
samelian | kb9vqf: at least for me, it working :) |
kb9vqf | OK |
samelian | i used it in production |
*kb9vqf didn't hear that :) | |
Xu_R | XD |
kb9vqf | So we have one vote of working |
samelian | "production" meaning my personal workstation :) |
kb9vqf | Oh, OK |
kb9vqf | That's better |
Xu_R | lol |
*kb9vqf had a mini panic attack there | |
samelian | hehe |
kb9vqf | I am especially worried about kate |
samelian | seems stable enough, anyway |
samelian | kate working perfectly |
samelian | kwrite, actually |
kb9vqf | I changed all the Qt casts to dynamic_casts |
Xu_R | arts: Service execution got triggered |
kb9vqf | It guarantees stability |
samelian | i wrote in kwrite most of cmake scripts |
Xu_R | kdelibs3: Service execution got triggered |
kb9vqf | But I wasn't sure if something would break somewhere |
kb9vqf | So the fact that it works for you is a good sign :) |
kb9vqf | It should fix some random crashes that were occuring |
kb9vqf | the cast changes, that is |
samelian | kwrite not crashing at al |
kb9vqf | Good |
kb9vqf | I was hitting some odd random crashes |
kb9vqf | And Qt4 made it always crash |
kb9vqf | Hence the change |
samelian | also, I use quanta wery much |
kb9vqf | Which uses the textinterface part |
samelian | i think quanta use kate kparts as well |
kb9vqf | Good |
kb9vqf | One functionality check done, 187327 to go :) |
Xu_R | LOL |
samelian | hehe |
Xu_R | I think we should start making testsuites ;) and checklists :P |
kb9vqf | I have one more big batch commit for kdelibs and kdebase |
samelian | meantime, I checking my brand new sftp kioslave |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: indeed |
samelian | because I write my websites "in site" |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: do you have some checklist somewhere, or should we create that on the wiki? :) |
kb9vqf | I don't |
kb9vqf | Wiki would be good |
MutantTurkey | i made a website checklist :D |
Xu_R | I don't have write perms - but I'm sure you can create it :P |
kb9vqf | You don't |
kb9vqf | ? |
kb9vqf | You should |
Xu_R | No. |
samelian | kb9vqf: you change something in mimes? |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: for things todo |
kb9vqf | samelian: Why? |
MutantTurkey | oh sorry |
samelian | klipper crashing very ofter because of mime |
kb9vqf | No, that's Qt3 |
kb9vqf | :-P |
samelian | i see |
kb9vqf | I have seen that crash before |
Xu_R | :-\ |
kb9vqf | It seems to be fixed under Qt4 |
samelian | sometime I must to dig it deeper |
kb9vqf | Qt3 may need a null pointer check somewhere in QMimeSource |
kb9vqf | That's my guess |
samelian | probably you right |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: yup, I don't have access on the wiki |
kb9vqf | samelian :If you can get the exact line number in a backtrace we can patch it I suppose |
kb9vqf | Why not |
samelian | i must to compile it with debug info |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: You wiki username is ??? |
kb9vqf | *Your |
Xu_R | RobertXu |
kb9vqf | samelian: Do you want system admin access to the Wiki so that you can add user write access? |
samelian | Xu_R: just curious, your surname seems chinesse |
Xu_R | samelian: I am chinese :) |
samelian | aha :) |
samelian | kb9vqf: i do not know fosswiki good enough |
kb9vqf | OK |
kb9vqf | Just asking since I am in the user editor :) |
samelian | kb9vqf: right now i learning too many things :) |
kb9vqf | Understandable |
samelian | i do not want to learn one more |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: You should have write access now |
Xu_R | samelian is too full of knowledge ;) |
kb9vqf | Hehe |
samelian | i'm too old for this :) |
samelian | no more room in my memory :)) |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: yup, got it. thanks. Creating a checklist. |
*kb9vqf knows THAT feeling :) | |
Xu_R | lol - something to look forward to when I get older. |
kb9vqf | I'm running a rebuild check on kdelibs/kdebase ATM |
kb9vqf | Qt4 is almost stabilized enought to commit |
kb9vqf | Not tqtinterface |
kb9vqf | Just the TQt porting of kdelibs/kdebase |
kb9vqf | Then it needs to be fully functionality tested |
Piki | no more room in my head to add more memory, nor do i know the access code to open it up and replace my old memory that can't remember worth heck |
Piki | forgot the code ages ago ;-) |
kb9vqf | :) |
kb9vqf | Where's the EMH from Voyager when you need him? |
Piki | who? |
kb9vqf | Star Trek Voyager |
samelian | AI |
kb9vqf | The Doctor |
Piki | oh, haven't watched that |
kb9vqf | Sorry |
samelian | Piki: your loss :) |
*samelian fan StarTrek and Stargate | |
kb9vqf | Same |
kb9vqf | :) |
Piki | kb9vqf: i thought you were referring to the old kid's show where they go through time making sure history goes correctly |
kb9vqf | Nope |
kb9vqf | Emergency Medical Hologram |
kb9vqf | Doctor as in a medical doctor |
Piki | samelian: never much cared for TV, only watch a select few shows |
samelian | Piki: me too |
kb9vqf | Same here |
Xu_R | yup |
Piki | kb9vqf: the time travel show is actually called "Voyager" ;-) |
samelian | I do not wath at TV shows at all |
kb9vqf | Really |
kb9vqf | Well, I need to be more careful with my esoteric references then :) |
kb9vqf | I might be misunderstood |
Xu_R | wow - I've got about 10 basic items on the checklist - this might be easier than I thought ;) |
Xu_R | ok - preliminary checklist and testsuite: http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/wiki/bin/view/Developers/TestsuiteAndChecklist |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: that is very good |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: Thanks! :) |
MutantTurkey | seems pretty much to cover the basics. |
Piki | Xu_R: for item 31, make sure people know to test both audio and video, ogg can contain both |
Xu_R | I figured that we can provide an ogg file for testing - like a simple it works! animation |
MutantTurkey | then get rid of 32. |
MutantTurkey | 31.Can you launch Media Players and play this file [sample file] ? does the sound work? does the video work? |
Xu_R | done |
MutantTurkey | we'll need to get a sample ogg file. |
Xu_R | yup. I'm sure we can scavage that from somewhere... |
MutantTurkey | wikipedia has alot of videos, all in ogg format |
MutantTurkey | so we should just get a short video clip from there. |
Xu_R | aye. |
MutantTurkey | should we ask them to load the acid3 test instead of "google.com" ? |
MutantTurkey | http://acid3.acidtests.org/ |
MutantTurkey | seems like a standard web test. |
MutantTurkey | moreso than using google |
Xu_R | got a ogg video file from wikimedia |
MutantTurkey | great |
MutantTurkey | with sound? |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: that's not what we want the users to do - that's Konqueror's problem |
Xu_R | yea |
MutantTurkey | then what are we checking from Konqueror? |
Xu_R | to see if it loads a webpage. |
MutantTurkey | ah |
MutantTurkey | justto test connectivity |
Xu_R | yes |
MutantTurkey | what is 13 for then? |
MutantTurkey | also then we can combine 8 and 14 maybe |
Xu_R | ok, added the ogg file |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: maybe |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: actually, no. 8 and 14 should not go together |
Xu_R | you could be connected to NetworkManager |
Xu_R | but Konqueror could fail to see the connection |
Xu_R | also, #13 just sees if Konqueror can be loaded up instantly or it you need to "tweak" it to load it. |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: so that Mandriva error I showed you - you fixed it, right? I just need to wait for you to commit it to SVN... |
Xu_R | because I fixed the dependency problem on Fedora, and now they're both stuck at the same point, lol ;) |
Piki | kickoff, same menu from opensuse and kde4? |
Xu_R | Piki: yea |
Piki | i didn't know we had it? |
Piki | or was that added to TDE? |
Xu_R | part of KDE since 3.5.10... |
Piki | Ark 2008.1 uses 3.5.10, never saw kickoff |
Piki | i've only seen it under kde3 under opensuse |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: okay good point |
Xu_R | probably backported patch - actually, SuSE and Mandriva had it on 3.5.9 |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: Actually, I take that back. Take that back. |
Xu_R | samelian: I'm still having this: http://lincom.pastebin.com/xJp1BNwf |
Xu_R | I have all the dependencies there - but for some reason, it doesn't like the library |
Xu_R | weird, cause mandriva the cmake took the lib just fine |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: any other suggestions? |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: will look over later. going to go shower |
Xu_R | ok |
Piki | Xu_R: perhaps add something like "Does it detect a network when connecting through another network connection applet (such as WiCD or others)? (if available) |
Piki | " |
samelian | Xu_R: try now |
samelian | seems that libX11 must be linked to dcop |
Xu_R | ok |
Xu_R | samelian: while you're pondering that, I got farther in the Mandriva build and then died here: http://lincom.pastebin.com/rtSbnxTe |
Xu_R | *while i'm doing that |
Xu_R | wait, samelian: did you commit to SVN? |
samelian | what? |
Xu_R | you said you wanted me to try again - but did you change anything in SVN? |
samelian | yes, dcop error |
samelian | but wait |
samelian | I want to add a check for ltdl.h |
Xu_R | ah. ok. tell me when you're ready. |
*Piki has joined #trinity-desktop | |
samelian | Xu_R: I made AVAHI support optional |
samelian | if you want it, use -DWITH_AVAHI=ON |
Xu_R | ok |
samelian | done |
Xu_R | that makes life a bit easier, because most distributions dropped avahi-qt3 |
samelian | i hope will compile without avahi support :) |
Xu_R | :D |
Xu_R | kdelibs3: Service execution got triggered |
Xu_R | samelian: still dcop can't link. I don't know why this doesn't work, it used to work before :( |
samelian | pastebin, pls |
Xu_R | http://lincom.pastebin.com/fjB0H2a1 |
*TokRa has joined #trinity-desktop | |
samelian | seems good |
samelian | this time is dcopquit |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: we have a blocker bug for archlinux that is easily resolved. mind commiting it for me? |
Xu_R | samelian: ah, ok. I thought it was the same ;) |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: what bug? :O |
MutantTurkey | let me find it sorry |
MutantTurkey | David Rankin thought it was a GCC 4.5 problem. apparently GCC intentionally breaks this. |
MutantTurkey | http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=47723 |
MutantTurkey | because the code is not C++ compliant or such |
Xu_R | oh my god. |
Xu_R | That was fixed already |
MutantTurkey | D: |
MutantTurkey | then why is it not in svn? |
Xu_R | Did David Rankin post this to archlinux or something? |
MutantTurkey | no he just emailed me,. |
Xu_R | kb9vqf will do a batch commit soon |
Xu_R | grrr |
MutantTurkey | okay. |
MutantTurkey | because we are sort of waiting for that to finish up archlinux. |
Xu_R | I already had to do damage control on opensuse-kde3... >_< |
Xu_R | it's a minimal thing, also I might have to look over his cmake arguments. |
MutantTurkey | yeah. arch is rolling release. which means basically anything that can break, will break if you don't do your homework. |
MutantTurkey | his cmake arguments are good i think. we are trying to keep everything in /opt/ |
MutantTurkey | yeah: the solution is simple. |
Xu_R | well, he decided to notify opensuse-kde3 ML and it's forcing me to rush up to Wednesday |
samelian | Xu_R: i'm not sure how to solve this, I guess we need to fix one by one |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: who David? |
Xu_R | samelian: what makes me wonder is how it works straight for Mandriva and then not for Fedora |
samelian | I won't link to X11 the executables which do not need it |
samelian | is something about linker |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: yea... I said I'd have Trinity RPMs by Wednesday |
MutantTurkey | D: |
MutantTurkey | for him? I thought he was working soley on arch |
Xu_R | no, for openSUSE |
MutantTurkey | oh okay |
Xu_R | he tried to get help on opensuse-kde3 |
MutantTurkey | oh |
MutantTurkey | sorry for the trouble then. when do you think kb9vqf will do a commit for this? |
Xu_R | and now i'm doing damage control trying to get Trinity accepted into SuSE |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: don't worry, I don't mind, just a little more planning is what I need :) |
Xu_R | kb9vqf said he'd do it tmrw or so |
samelian | Xu_R: commited |
MutantTurkey | yeah? commited? good |
Xu_R | kdelibs3: Service execution got triggered |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: no, that's cmake fixes |
MutantTurkey | oh |
MutantTurkey | I'll email David again now then. |
Xu_R | that's why I said wait - because we're still ironing out bugs |
MutantTurkey | yeah. |
MutantTurkey | I am just working on the website for now |
Xu_R | hmm, so right now we have a jack of all trades (kb9vqf), the builder and put-together-er (samelian), the website (MutantTurkey), the users (me and anyone else compiling Trinity) |
Xu_R | I think we're doing pretty good :) |
MutantTurkey | agreed. |
MutantTurkey | I had been looking for a nice project like this for a very long time. small enough developer base to be able to get to know the people, but not to small where it is boring. |
Xu_R | :D |
Xu_R | The ideal project. |
MutantTurkey | indeed. |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: is that good for an about section? http://96.245.17.6/about.php |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: short, and straight to the point - yea. |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: Gotta run, but I'll try to get the fixes commited tonight or tomorrow morning |
Xu_R | ok. Night kb9vqf. |
MutantTurkey | what does e.V mean? |
Xu_R | I think it's just their way of saying the KDE foundation |
MutantTurkey | no. I have seen it elsewhere also |
Xu_R | maybe jurisdiction? |
MutantTurkey | for example, "ffis e.V." |
MutantTurkey | just saw that here http://www.spi-inc.org/donations/ |
Xu_R | I'm thinking jurisdiction - the country might matter in which the foundation resides... |
MutantTurkey | ah okay |
MutantTurkey | samelian: can i align to the center with a div? |
samelian | depends |
samelian | what you want to align? |
MutantTurkey | I would like to center an image |
MutantTurkey | Its not nessicary but it'd be nice. |
samelian | try text-align:center |
MutantTurkey | that only works for text i think |
samelian | nope |
samelian | it align any content in a div |
MutantTurkey | it aligns all content in a div |
Xu_R | samelian: yay, it works! |
samelian | good |
MutantTurkey | can someone take 2 screenshots of Trinity 3.5.12? (one of desktop one with just konqueror open) I just a higher resolution image than the one we have right now. |
Xu_R | ok, at 87% for kdelibs - this is good, I can finish restructuring kdebase, and then I might be able to make the Wednesday deadline for succeeded up to kdebase specs :D |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: sorry, just shut my Trinity VM off and my Unity Linux VM on. :-\ |
MutantTurkey | D: |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: okay tomorrow then maybe? |
Xu_R | actually, hold on. I'll boot up my Trinity VM then. give me a moment :) |
MutantTurkey | :) thank you sir |
Xu_R | hmm |
Xu_R | what's a good snapshot tool? |
Piki | ksnapshot |
Piki | comes with KDE3/4 |
Piki | not sure what formats it supports, other than png |
Piki | but they can be converted |
samelian | or even gimp |
samelian | time to sleep |
samelian | gn all |
Piki | samelian: gimp takes screenshots? |
Xu_R | night samelian :) |
samelian | Piki: sure |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: got two screenshots: |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: great |
MutantTurkey | Piki: yeah apparently |
Piki | MutantTurkey: ? |
MutantTurkey | I always just used scrot |
MutantTurkey | scrot is simple and fast. |
MutantTurkey | i reccomend |
MutantTurkey | sorry for slow answer, I was busy for a minute |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: www.wuala.com/robxu9/public_html/ |
Xu_R | you'll find the two snapshots in there :) |
MutantTurkey | enjoyed switzerland eh? |
MutantTurkey | I'm swiss. |
Xu_R | lol |
Xu_R | nice :) |
MutantTurkey | yeah. wow great screens thanks! |
Xu_R | np ^^ |
Piki | wtf? can't get vbox to start, first it's complaining that the kernel module isn't loading, then complains that the module is not accessible after loading it... |
Piki | any virtualbox buffs on? |
MutantTurkey | D: |
MutantTurkey | not me. |
Xu_R | I'm always running virtualbox... |
Piki | i only run it sometimes, don't always need a vm |
Xu_R | did you upgrade your kernel/vbox version/kernel-headers/kernel-modules/vbox-guest-additions? |
Piki | nope, using the version in the Ark repos |
Xu_R | oh, if you're using arklinux's version, idk |
Piki | Ark is using the OSE, 4.0.2 |
Xu_R | is your vbox kernel module using 4.0.2? |
Piki | i never had an other version of vbox on here |
Piki | so i assume so |
Xu_R | make sure you have everything installed |
Xu_R | do not assume so. |
Piki | well, unless bero's buildserver some didn't auto-clean itself like it's designed to, i don't see what other vbox it's from |
Piki | and it was working awhile ago |
*Xu_R shrugs | |
Xu_R | you seem to always have problems with your computers... |
Piki | and the only other vbox package is -debug, which is debug symbols for the packager/bug reporter |
MutantTurkey | windows troubleshooting : reboot |
Xu_R | hehe, always true. best solution - reboot ;) |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: thanks again for the images |
Xu_R | not just windows - everything |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: no problem :D |
Piki | Xu_R: i wouldn't have such trouble if we had a release out, or if other distros actually knew how to make things work. Ark is the only one that has actually worked, but 2008.1 is too old, and we need a new one |
Piki | well, if you can't figure out what the problem is in linux, reboot, otherwise service something restart |
Xu_R | Piki: there are many distributions that work, they just all seem to hate you xD |
MutantTurkey | Arch :D |
Xu_R | arch is nice |
Xu_R | but I deleted the VM for it because it started taking up a bit too much hd space ;) |
MutantTurkey | D: |
MutantTurkey | i just realized i am using 60gbs of my hard drive |
MutantTurkey | no ide ahow |
Xu_R | damn lol |
MutantTurkey | yeah |
MutantTurkey | alot of music |
MutantTurkey | but i moved most to an external |
MutantTurkey | so no idea D: |
MutantTurkey | everything is in FLAC thats probably why hahaha |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: http://96.245.17.6/releases.php, nice images, you can click to enlarge :D |
Piki | Xu_R: i have tried quite a few distros on quite a few computers, they just don't work |
Piki | though i haven't tried Arch, haven't had the time to actually sit and do the manual config stuff, barely have time to test AL, and setting up for TDE is taking ages |
MutantTurkey | arch doesn't take to much time to setup |
MutantTurkey | there is a minimal amount of config usually, they give you package defaults. everything else is up to you. |
Xu_R | lol MutantTurkey |
Xu_R | and the release page is NICE :D |
MutantTurkey | Arch makes it almost like arch doesn't exist. all problems are the developers fault, not archs. |
Xu_R | epic win :D |
MutantTurkey | we just package, we don't fix. that is upstreams job. |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: yes :D |
Piki | i couldn't get my network working to install any of those packages |
MutantTurkey | I think the long lists of features should be improved, like side by side panes |
MutantTurkey | or maybe a nice table. |
MutantTurkey | one great thing about the 3.5.11 release is that they had lots of pictures. people love that. |
MutantTurkey | they understand pictures. not long lists |
Xu_R | pictures... |
MutantTurkey | http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/wiki/bin/view/Documentation/Releases_3_5_11 |
MutantTurkey | look |
Xu_R | a feast for the eyes |
MutantTurkey | like they highlight things we have fixed, and pictures make it easy for a user to go "oh wow they finally fixed that! great!" |
Xu_R | yup |
Piki | it didn't seem to include any network config stuff other than ifconfig and resolv.conf, and i need something like dhclient or dhcpcd and an easy-to-config wpa util |
Xu_R | when 3.5.13 gets out |
MutantTurkey | we will do that I guess. |
Xu_R | that's going to be a priority |
Xu_R | yeah, we need to be like, hey people, major improvements! |
MutantTurkey | yes exactly. |
Xu_R | Piki: you have strange problems with computers. :( and arch linux has dhcp and stuff... |
Piki | and their wiki page for resolv.conf wasn't as thorough as i would have liked, i don't like doing config files |
MutantTurkey | because we need to say " hey look. KDE 3 has been around since like 2002. Its been a long run, and over that time its improved a ton, we are continuing to fix it and make it better" |
Piki | Xu_R: well i couldn't find any dhcp stuff |
MutantTurkey | Piki: lol |
MutantTurkey | usually just /etc/rc.d/network start is enough to get it going |
MutantTurkey | if you have any trouble don't hesitate to ask #archlinux, check our great wiki or ask me :D |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: We should put in bold at the top: We've made it easier to try Trinity on your distribution! |
MutantTurkey | exactly. |
MutantTurkey | exactly exactly. |
Xu_R | and then continue by saying there's cmake and we've depreciated HAL, which is old stuff pre-2008 |
MutantTurkey | i mean, all this backend stuff is good for us, but for them they need to see it |
Piki | MutantTurkey: didn't see it in their docs when i was searching around |
MutantTurkey | Piki: we have awesoem docs. the wiki dude. |
Xu_R | when the users see pre-2008, they'll be like, oooh, progress! |
MutantTurkey | yes |
Piki | and besides, i tend to use wireless |
Piki | MutantTurkey: i did search there |
Piki | and the entire site as well |
MutantTurkey | "PHASING OUT THE OLD, BRINGING IN THE NEW' - "TDE 3.5.13 IS THE NEXT-GEN RELEASE" |
MutantTurkey | shit like that. |
MutantTurkey | people love that. |
Piki | i saw the resolv.conf stuff on the wiki |
Xu_R | definitely :D |
MutantTurkey | Piki: D: wireless is evil. |
MutantTurkey | well not really |
MutantTurkey | just for setting up off of a minimal boot cd. |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: Do you think we should start mapping out 3.5.13 release notes in Developer? |
Piki | MutantTurkey: if you know how to set it up securely and properly, it's not |
MutantTurkey | Piki: also, I don't trust any keys. |
MutantTurkey | I know how to hack wifi so easily, i don't trust it. |
Xu_R | kinda like what GNOME does - map out the release notes as they come, then screenshot them and put them into Documentation when 3.5.13 is released? |
MutantTurkey | i use mac authentication and the whole jazz but still. |
Xu_R | damn MutatnTur |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: that is a good idea. |
*aledec has left #trinity-desktop | |
Xu_R | *MutantTurkey is pro :P |
Xu_R | ok. |
MutantTurkey | lol :p |
MutantTurkey | install aircrack-ng suite, play with it a bit. you can hack anything. |
Xu_R | nice |
Piki | WPA2+AES+MAC Filter+AP Isolation |
MutantTurkey | yep. |
Piki | MutantTurkey: of course, nothing is perfect |
MutantTurkey | Piki: thats how you got to do it. |
MutantTurkey | most people are fools though |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: back to the talk of 3.5.13 release. whats the dealeo with bluetooth? |
Piki | but if you setup your WPA2 key with a purely random 63-character key (63 is as long as it goes), and change it on occasion, it's near impossible to hack |
Piki | oh, and hide ssid broadcast |
MutantTurkey | on occasion? man my friend had his change like every six hours |
MutantTurkey | some awesome scripting went into that. |
Piki | unless you've got a really determined guy sitting right outside your house working endlessly at it, that's a bit extreme |
Piki | i change mine about once a week |
MutantTurkey | we have alot of fun with it :p |
MutantTurkey | my wifi network i am on right now ( i am wired of course) is pathetic. |
MutantTurkey | i think they are using WEP + no MAC filter + ssid broadcasting + zero firewall |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: bluetooth, still nothing :( |
Piki | of course, there was the guy who kept hacking the connection when i was on my mother's fios, but i think he was hacking from the internet, not the curb, and my mother didn't want the fios firewall set |
Piki | MutantTurkey: that is pathetic ;-) |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: okay check this link http://96.245.17.6/TODO.txt |
MutantTurkey | this is my todo list for the website |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: NICE! :D |
MutantTurkey | yeah |
Xu_R | I started the Release Notes for 3.5.13 as a draft: http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/wiki/bin/view/Developers/Releases_3_5_13_DRAFT |
MutantTurkey | once the release is final we are going to move that to the main website |
Piki | if i have to, though, i can go wired with my current connection, just a hassle having to move around my hotspot all the time when i'm home |
MutantTurkey | Piki: agreed. |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: I'll move it to Documentation in the Wiki, and we'll move it to the main website, yea. :D |
MutantTurkey | sweet. |
MutantTurkey | because only certain stuff should be on the wiki. |
Piki | and i'd still need a dhcp client, which arch didn't install when i did the netinstall |
MutantTurkey | 1) the wiki is slow as hell. 2) the website is easier and more familiar |
MutantTurkey | Piki: yes it does dude. |
Piki | MutantTurkey: not when i installed it |
MutantTurkey | dhcpcd is always installed. |
Xu_R | Piki: it does. |
Piki | nope, i searched in /sbin /bin /usr/sbin /usr/bin |
MutantTurkey | then you fked up big time? did you select it as a package to install? there is a big list of packages to install. |
MutantTurkey | you should have selected things like wireless_tools or whatever you use |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: yes, the Wiki needs a clean up - it looks like a pile of papers with no tabs ;) |
Piki | MutantTurkey: i selected all of the net/wireless stuff |
MutantTurkey | D: yes. |
MutantTurkey | Piki: i dunno dude |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: agreed. |
*TokRa has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | well this is my big job! :p to do all this crap |
MutantTurkey | hey TokRa |
Piki | and nothing for dhcp, no dhclient, no dhcpcd |
TokRa | MutantTurkey :) |
MutantTurkey | Piki: D: weird |
Xu_R | hey TokRa |
Xu_R | Piki: yea, that's really weird. |
Xu_R | o_O |
Xu_R | anyway, I'm periodically saving the 3.5.13 draft release, feel free to refresh every once in a while |
*TokRa looks at Xu_R | |
Piki | if it's definitely supposed to be there, then something went wrong when it was downloading packages, and didn't check for that |
*Xu_R looks at TokRa | |
Piki | which i assume it does |
*MutantTurkey looks at the computer screen | |
Piki | Xu_R: if i have my system ready for builds in time, i'll have packages ready for 3.5.13 |
*Xu_R sees the computer screen shatter XD | |
Piki | dunno if you should add Ark, but it is a draft |
MutantTurkey | if you plan on having it, then it should be there. |
MutantTurkey | this assumes everything goes great. |
MutantTurkey | I know arch packages will be good, david is making excellent progress |
Piki | keyword "assumes", with my schedule, a bad word to put there |
MutantTurkey | well tentatively dude. |
MutantTurkey | things are bound to change. |
MutantTurkey | also if you can't make it exactly by the release its fine, we can just add it a few weeks late |
Xu_R | Piki: Once I see progress I will add Ark |
Xu_R | The distributions I listed there either already have packages for Trinity or will add them in time for 3.5.13. |
Xu_R | (and have some results already) |
Piki | yeah, my goal isn't to have them in time for a TDE release, but to have the latest TDE released packaged in time for an Ark release |
Xu_R | then I can't add them, Piki. |
Piki | so it may be 3.5.13, or even 3.5.14 |
Piki | Xu_R: obviously |
Xu_R | anyway, I think I'll stop here right now: http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/wiki/bin/view/Developers/Releases_3_5_13_DRAFT |
Piki | though like i said, it is a draft, if you do add it and it's not ready, it can be removed. either way is fine |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: excellent |
MutantTurkey | how old is autotools? |
Xu_R | like REALLY REALLY old |
Xu_R | lol |
Xu_R | I know that KDE has used it since forever, so... |
MutantTurkey | yeah |
MutantTurkey | this is good so far though |
MutantTurkey | are we getting new background and themes? |
MutantTurkey | I think that is also major important |
MutantTurkey | rebranding ya know |
Xu_R | yes. We need a more eyecandy-ish Trinity to let them know that we're very modern now |
Xu_R | *Trinity logo |
Xu_R | the background and themes should also be updated to reflect that |
Xu_R | the rest can stay the same. |
Piki | i think we should keep the same basic default theme, just do some "modernizing" with it |
Piki | make things a bit more 3d with some of the icons and dialogs |
Piki | and yes, do the logo and background |
Xu_R | Piki: I just propose a new theme - modifying the old one is a big hassle. We want it to reflect modern, not KDE4 Alpha 1. |
Xu_R | (because that IS how KDE4 Alpha 1 started out - then they scrapped everything XD) |
Piki | Xu_R: obviously, wasn't suggesting KDE4 or anything |
MutantTurkey | agreed |
MutantTurkey | sorry, I need to go study and sleep. |
MutantTurkey | I will be on tomorrow hopefully and we can talk more about the user aspect of 3.5.13 more |
Piki | i just like the default KDE3 theme |
Xu_R | ok MutantTurkey |
MutantTurkey | great :D night all |
Xu_R | I think I might have RPM packages for you all to test too! :) |
Piki | MutantTurkey: ok, cya |
Piki | Xu_R: 3.5.12? or the cmake stuff? |
Piki | i haven't gotten around to writing my specs yet :-( |
Xu_R | Piki: what do you mean? |
Xu_R | I have the latest SVN being packaged right now |
Xu_R | that's what i've been babbling to kb9vqf and samelian about |
Piki | Xu_R: i still need to write some spec files for TDE, but i only want an actual release in the AL repos, kinda makes things a bit less confusing when packaging (rather than doing "svn up" all the time and redoing packages all the time, don't have enough time anyway), and makes things look more official for the end user |
Piki | and i don't feel like scouring the interwebs for the specs |
Piki | kinda been in a lazy mood lately |
Piki | with the way work's been going |
Xu_R | if you try doing that to find specs, piki |
Xu_R | you won't understand how to use them ;) |
Xu_R | and I don't do svn up all the time |
Xu_R | that's why I have services. |
Piki | Xu_R: oh? why won't i understand them? |
Piki | and i can't have any services running, i have to do my builds on my laptop, my desktop's hard disk pooped out, and i don't have any money |
Piki | and i can't have my laptop overheating all the time |
Xu_R | Piki: because - it can get compilcated. |
Xu_R | I don't even understand most specs on first try |
Xu_R | unless I know how the base system and their packaging works. |
Piki | (the cats like laying on the vent) |
Xu_R | for example, how does mandriva name their libraries? |
Piki | dunno, never used mandriva for long enough to find out |
Xu_R | or, where do these macros come from. |
Xu_R | it was rhetorical. |
Xu_R | kdelibs3: Services execution got triggered |
Piki | i'm sure i could get the Ark specs from 3.5.10 working, it's likely just a matter of if the patches work or not |
Piki | not sure what's changed between 3.5.10 and 3.5.12, and i'm going to need to remove the Mission Control patches until we can rewrite to tqt |
Xu_R | Piki: think again. |
Piki | which won't be until i have time to learn how to do the coding |
Piki | Xu_R: hmm? |
Xu_R | there's autotools breakage there |
Xu_R | from 3.5.10 -> Trinity |
Xu_R | autoconf breakage |
Xu_R | that's why we moved to cmake |
Xu_R | you need new configure arguments, and new filelists |
Piki | i thought it would work with the older versions of autotools? |
Xu_R | because - if you want Trinity and KDE4 to coexist together, you need to make them install in /opt/trinity |
Xu_R | Piki: yea, but 2.63 and lower - most distributions are on 2.68 and 2.69 already |
Piki | i'm not worried about moving the TDE files to /opt, i can adjust for that |
Piki | and some distros do have older versions of autotools in their repos (with the version appended to the package name), which is what i can do until 3.5.13 |
Piki | though that will probably be released before i get to finishing my packages anyway |
Piki | in which case i'll have the file lists fixed for most packages |
Piki | since the Ark specs are already done anyway, i may as well use them and adjust where needed, since they already follow the Ark packaging conventions |
Piki | or at least use them as a guide |
Xu_R | well, better get started now :P |
Piki | i'm working on it, kinda hard when bero can't seem to fix the dependency mess in the repos |
Piki | and when my schedule doesn't permit much time |
Piki | i'm going to have to start spamming him with emails |
Xu_R | oh. no response from him, eh? |
Xu_R | sorry for late response, was rebooting Unity Linux VM |
Piki | it's random at best when he responds |
Piki | though he's still building packages |
Xu_R | maybe he made up an auto-updater? |
Piki | i doubt it, unless he has it set to use svn for some packages |
Piki | and kde.org is sporting 4.6 in the banner image, but i haven't seen any kde 4.6 packages hit lately, so they're probably still alpha packages, unless somehow the bs spead up and got through all of them super fast and did a bunch of other packages |
Xu_R | what do you mean? |
Xu_R | oh. |
Piki | the bs can only go so fast, and KDE is huge for the bs |
Piki | so it would had to have been upgraded by his job (they own the hardware), which i doubt they've done recently, it always seems to be running |
Xu_R | maybe they did. |
Piki | if he did 4.6 |
Piki | yeah, but to a machine that fast? i doubt it, they'd need some yet-unannounced Intel i10 with 128GB RAM and a long package queue for 4.6 to go off the front page on our identica page that quickly |
Piki | and even when he does do kde, it's only a few packages at a time |
Xu_R | it can happen. 1. simultaneous build jobs, 2. Intel Xeon 8 core with 16 gbs of memory can do a lot, 3. make -j4 or make-j64? |
Piki | and the builds only come through during daylight in his timezone |
Piki | if it's an 8 core, how would -j64 work? |
Xu_R | -j64 can work for an 8 core... it's possible. |
Xu_R | also, remember that there's the cgroups tweak that can also dramatically speed up performance |
Piki | i thought that was to make it build on multiple cores, but with only 8 cores it would only work for -j8 |
Piki | i can't remember, never heard of cgroups |
Xu_R | Piki: you need to keep up on linux news. XD |
Piki | kinda hard to do with how little time i have... |
Piki | work 4 days, therapy one day, dealing with my mom everyday, and things tend to happen on the 2 days that i should have off |
Piki | and when i do finally have some spare time, i'm so worn out i don't think of checking for any news, i'm more concerned with unwinding |
Piki | can only take so much stress |
Piki | pfft, ffmpeg thinks i'm not specifying a size for the video |

field_it | hi |
field_it | I had kgtk packages installed. they made iceweasel constantly crash, so I purged them again. now I keep getting this: |
field_it | ERROR: ld.so: object '/opt/trinity/lib/kgtk/libkgtk2.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded: ignored |
field_it | and, btw, automount of sdcards etc worked once, but stopped working shortly after installation. context menus never worked/existed. |

Xu_R|School | samelian: apparently cmake does not like the check on if Qt3 is 3.3.8c or not - is there a way to diable it? |
Xu_R|School | *disable it? |
Xu_R|School | just start spamming Xu_R w/ an answer, so I'll get it when I get home |
Xu_R|School | on another (good) note |
Xu_R|School | kdelibs is done compiling |
Xu_R|School | now to restructure kdebase :D |
Xu_R|School | and then start testing |
samelian | Xu_R|School: I do not understand |
samelian | cmake checking for patched qt3 |
Xu_R|School | sending you pastebin log |
Xu_R|School | samelian: http://lincom.pastebin.com/sTb62rc6 |
Xu_R|School | as you can see, qt3-3.3.8c (the patched qt3) is installed |
Xu_R|School | and qt3-devel |
Xu_R|School | but it doesn't detect it :-\ |
Xu_R|School | I might have missed something, checking... |
samelian | Xu_R|School: show me CMakeError |
Xu_R|School | samelian: I'm not at the server atm, I can't ssh in right now. I can get it to you in like 1 hour... |
samelian | ok |
Xu_R|School | kb9vqf: anytime you're ready to commit to svn, i'm waiting ;) hehehehe |
kb9vqf | XuR|School: Doing a final build test now |
kb9vqf | I imagine you want it to compile, no? ;-) |
Xu_R|School | of course ;) |
Xu_R|School | ok, it's almost 1410, closing bell :D |
Xu_R|School | bbiab |
Piki | finally decided to grab svn and help with cmake, don't think i'm getting 3.5.12 built before 3.5.13, so may as well start with cmake and get my specs adjusted now so i don't have to worry later |
Piki | samelian: i'm not familiar with compiling with cmake, you may have to help me when it's done ;-) |
samelian | sure |
kb9vqf | samelian: Please poke Xu_R when he gets back on and let him know that the fixes he needed are in SVN revision 1220927. |
kb9vqf | Also, I think David Rankin can now compile Trinity again |
samelian | ok |
kb9vqf | But I'll wait for Xu_R's attempt before letting him know ;-) |
kb9vqf | Thanks |
*kb9vqf thinks tbottu should be able to handle messages for people....hmmm...another project :-P | |
Piki | could be awhile, my connection is unreliable, and i'm stuck with a laptop that needs to shut down sometimes, stupid cats laying at the fan... |
Piki | kb9vqf: see about finding a plugin that will trigger a notice or a message in the channel when it sees a certain nick join or a word/phrase appear (e.g. "Blah has joined #trinity-desktop") |
Piki | actually, i need to do a few custom eggdrop scripts, not finding what i need (or at least what i've found doesn't seem to work) |
Piki | need to learn tcl first |
Piki | kb9vqf: here's an idea, not sure if you're planning to do it: have tbottu announce svn commits (revision number and comment), and allow us to query tbottu for a sepcific revision or a list of recent revisions |
Xu_R | back |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: you can't hide like that XD |
Xu_R | hehe |
Piki | Xu_R: dunno if you see it, but kb9vqf commited something for you to svn revision 1220927 |
Xu_R | Piki: I know I know, I can read logs. |
Xu_R | That's why I just responded to kb9vqf |
Piki | Xu_R: first part of my message... |
Piki | and it's hard to know what response goes to what on irc, especially with some time between responses |
Xu_R | brb cooking snack |
Xu_R | then I'm gonna restructure kdebase |
Piki | kb9vqf: svn keeps cutting me off after a few minutes, had to setup a loop in a bash script to keep it going |
Piki | with how frequent it's cutting me off, not sure if my 50 loop limit is enough, from looking on websvn there's quite a bit |
Piki | now it's cutting off every 30 to 60 seconds |

toxic_devil | Piki: hi |
Piki | eh? i didn't know irc supported different fonts/ |
Piki | ? |
kb9vqf | Piki: That means the server is under heavy load |
kb9vqf | I don't own that server |
kb9vqf | It's the KDE e.V. official anonsvn server |
kb9vqf | I'd complain at them if I were you ;-) |
toxic_devil | kb9vqf: hi |
kb9vqf | Hello |
toxic_devil | kb9vqf: We did not get to trinity |
toxic_devil | kb9vqf: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9454972/trinity.tar.gz |
kb9vqf | ? |
kb9vqf | What is that? |
toxic_devil | kb9vqf: download it |
Piki | kb9vqf: yeah, i knew it was theirs, was just wandering if perhaps something was being commited that could be interfering, or if maybe each branch had it's own settings and trinity may have gotten messed up somehow |
kb9vqf | I don't download strange files without knowing what's in them |
kb9vqf | Sorry |
kb9vqf | I don't think so |
Piki | yep, good safety practices |
Piki | even in linux |
kb9vqf | It's just a large update |
toxic_devil | мда |
Piki | don't compile or run something unless you know ahead of time what it is |
toxic_devil | assembly instructions you do not have normal |
Piki | kb9vqf: i haven't d/led svn, so a large update shouldn't be the problem, just that it should not keep cutting off that frequently. i'll email them if it doesn't fix, heading out soon |
kb9vqf | OK |
kb9vqf | toxic_devil: I don't understand |
kb9vqf | What's in the file? |
toxic_devil | kb9vqf: download fear. they ask do not understand |
toxic_devil | kb9vqf: Virus under Linux, all night writing |
toxic_devil | :-D |
Piki | toxic_devil: are you set to auto-send files when your avatar changes? rather annoying when i get unexpected dcc requests, i only accept stuff when i know what it is and know to expect it |
Piki | toxic_devil: well, we do not want viruses |
kb9vqf | Well I downloaded the file into a nobody account |
kb9vqf | It's just ebuild files |
kb9vqf | :) |
kb9vqf | A simple explaination would have saved me a few minutes of hassle :-P |
Piki | kb9vqf: me too, looks like a bunch of source files |
Piki | may want to look the files over before letting them loose |
kb9vqf | Great minds think alike? :-) |
kb9vqf | .ebuild |
kb9vqf | Yeah, I'm not doing anything with them myself |
kb9vqf | I was just curious what was in the file |
Xu_R | back |
kb9vqf | Gotta love the DDoS attack going on against freenode |
kb9vqf | Lag: 4s |
kb9vqf | :( |
Piki | kb9vqf: agreed, even in linux i like to know what i'm downloading before downloading ;-) make sure i'm not about to install or compile a virus |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: only trolls would do a DDoS attack, lol |
kb9vqf | It also keeps me out of USA DCMA trouble :) |
kb9vqf | err....DMCA |
kb9vqf | Agreed |
kb9vqf | "[Notice] -Martinp23- [Global Notice] Hi everyone. You will have possibly noticed some instability on the network earlier this evening. The network is under a sustained DDoS and so lag and possible further splits are to be expected. We apologise for the inconvenience - our fantastic sponsorship and infra teams are working to minimise the further impact. Have a nice evening!" |
kb9vqf | That explains the netsplits |
Xu_R | LOL |
Piki | kb9vqf: heh, saw the notice a minut ago, i hate DDoS attacks, especially when i'm the one dealing with them ;-) |
Piki | DMCA? |
kb9vqf | Yup |
kb9vqf | I think we're having a somewhat asynchronous conversation ATM |
toxic_devil | мда когда ж вы по русски говорить начнете хоть чуть чуть |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: did you see this? We decided why not get started on what to expect for 3.5.13 |
Xu_R | http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/wiki/bin/view/Developers/Releases_3_5_13_DRAFT |
Piki | kb9vqf: what's the DMCA? |
kb9vqf | Piki: Digital Millenium Copyright Act |
Xu_R | woah |
Xu_R | laggg |
Xu_R | lolo |
kb9vqf | Piki: It's something that can send US citizens to jail if someone even smells a copyright violation |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: also, try looking at this: http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/wiki/bin/view/Developers/TestsuiteAndChecklist |
kb9vqf | e.g. downloading copyrighted files |
kb9vqf | Or cracking programs |
kb9vqf | etc. |
toxic_devil | kb9vqf: kb9vqf: there is only a basic system working |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: Hey, that looks good! |
toxic_devil | kb9vqf: you do not have good instructions as software to collect, we have problems with tqt |
kb9vqf | toxic_devil: I know |
Piki | kb9vqf: a lot of people should be going to jail then ;-) just search the torrent sites (pirate bay, btmon, etc) |
toxic_devil | many many problem of tqt |
kb9vqf | My time is spent fixing bugs and upgrading the software, not writing documentation |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: hm, which one? The DRAFT or the Checklist? |
*kb9vqf REALLY REALLY HATES THE LAG | |
*MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | Piki: Yes |
kb9vqf | I wish they would |
MutantTurkey | o/ |
toxic_devil | kb9vqf: And that's what we do? |
kb9vqf | Maybe then copyright holders would ease up a bit |
Piki | kb9vqf: i can do some .txt file documentation for compiling with cmake then copy them to the wiki later when i'm done |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: BEWARE, LAG |
Xu_R | DDoS attack |
*kb9vqf is about ready to just come back later | |
Piki | or just put them directly on the wiki, if we have docs on foswiki syntax |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: which one did you say looked good? DRAFT, Checklist, or both? |
kb9vqf | I can't keep all these asynchronous conversations straight :-P |
Xu_R | Piki: that's in the System Web. look there |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: DRAFT |
Xu_R | oh. Awesome :D |
Piki | will go slow though, not much time |
Piki | MutantTurkey: freenode under ddos attack |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: Checklist also looks goo |
kb9vqf | *good |
MutantTurkey | D: what? |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: okees |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: DDoS attack - Freenode lag |
Piki | lol |
Xu_R | and net slpits |
Xu_R | *splits |
MutantTurkey | just our node or every node in the network? and what jerkoffs would do that. |
Piki | anyway, need to go, bank closing soon |
Piki | laterz |
Xu_R | every node |
MutantTurkey | :[ |
Xu_R | yes |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: bright side - kb9vqf fixed the stuff in SVN :D |
*kb9vqf calls it quits for now | |
kb9vqf | Too much lag :(( |

Strangelv | MutantTurkey: I'm still wracking my brain over the mascot/icon aspect. I'm leaning towards figuring out the mascot first |
MutantTurkey | Strangelv: alright, any ideas? |
MutantTurkey | also i finally implemented a simple News system for the new website! :D |
Strangelv | "Something that says that this is the ultimate in available solutions for personalizable desktop so/lutions |
MutantTurkey | each file in the news/ dir (contains the information for the posting) is parsed onto the news page, very simple and keeps it DB free. http://96.245.17.6/news.php |
MutantTurkey | Strangelv: do you believe that? |
Strangelv | Yes. If there's better I don't know of one |
MutantTurkey | good stuff |
MutantTurkey | http://www.phillygameday.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/rockies_mascot-291x300.jpg? |
MutantTurkey | good mascot |
MutantTurkey | but we do need to think of one definitely. |
MutantTurkey | publicity is half the work. for example, i associate the fox with firefox, the mouse with xfce. the foot with gnome. so we need trinity to be something. |
MutantTurkey | what about a Trident for a logo? |
Strangelv | Something similar to Mr Potato HEad that isn't Mr Potato head might be what we want. I don't know what that is exactly at this point, though. |
ZZRX | New webpage look very nice |
*Strangelv tries to trick out his trident for his own eccentric purposes | |
MutantTurkey | ZZRX: thank you |
MutantTurkey | Mr potato head, but no mr potato head? |
MutantTurkey | mrs potato head? |
Piki | perhaps a trident-like object that with a head that can changed and customized? |
MutantTurkey | hmmm? |
Piki | with the different accesseries surrounding it? |
MutantTurkey | by Trident i mean, a three pronged spear thing, that the god Posiden carried |
MutantTurkey | we all mean that right? |
*Strangelv tries to visiualize an eccentric Poseidon. | |
MutantTurkey | the current logo is acceptable though. it is familiar but different. |
MutantTurkey | people will instantly associate it with the KDE3.5 they know and love |
MutantTurkey | but, it is a bit to much like the current kde logo also D: |
Strangelv | The T Gear Logo is just fine for transitional. We don't replace it publicly until we're good and ready with a replacement, and that could take quite some time |
MutantTurkey | exactly. |
MutantTurkey | i think the 3.5.13 release is when we should have it. |
Piki | MutantTurkey: i'm thinking of a long handle with the multi-pointed head that people tend to associate with water-type roylaty (spelling?) and divinity |
Strangelv | 3.5.13 is likely to be out the door before I believe we'll be ready with a replacement icon and/or mascot |
MutantTurkey | royalty |
MutantTurkey | Strangelv: maybe so. |
MutantTurkey | I do think we should make an attempt to rebrand as much as possible for the next release. wouldn't you agree? |
Piki | except that we replace the head with something that'll signify customizability |
*Strangelv wants to take enough time to do a better than merely serviceable job | |
MutantTurkey | some theme--modernization, some new backgrounds, etc. |
Piki | we can do all this theme/rebranding stuff over several releases |
MutantTurkey | Strangelv: we have a few months, and if we don't feel it is ready, then it is best to not do it. I'm sure many people have ideas so we should definitely talk about it more. |
MutantTurkey | Piki: exactly. |
Strangelv | Theme modernization is something I'm wvanting to work on, but I'm not the best person to hunt down where everything I want to replace is located |
Piki | we need to concentrate mainly on a stable release |
MutantTurkey | obviously |
MutantTurkey | stable is expected, new features are extra. |
Strangelv | ::: http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/wiki/bin/view/Artwork/ArtworkFiles |
MutantTurkey | Strangelv: thanks for the link |
Strangelv | "This is where I've been trying to document what I need to know to get started |
MutantTurkey | the problem is that KDE is so huge D: i mean they have like weekly batch commits that are always bug fixers and features. |
Strangelv | How modular is the code? HOw well documented are the pieces? |
MutantTurkey | no idea. |
Strangelv | One important reason to improve our brand identity is to recruit more developers |
MutantTurkey | indeed |
*ZZRX has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | I am planning on helping out soon enough, I will need to learn C++ but i am fluent in C so i don't know how hard the transition will be, surely i can close some of those PaperCut bugs |
Strangelv | I went about learning C++ the wrong way. I presently have a first edition K&R on order (heavily used but cheap -- hard part was finding where it's carefulyl hidden on Amazon) |
MutantTurkey | Unfortunately i haven't taken any formal training with any sort of computers. |
MutantTurkey | all self taught, but I was thinking about changing my major to Computer Sciences. |
Strangelv | "if i start again learning old school C, where the language is small, compact, and easy to elarn in its entirely, I should have a better foundatio,n even if it means I go on to write C++ that's not really C++ |
MutantTurkey | I just don't really feel like learning Java and C# like they try and force it on you. |
*Strangelv ran away screaming from Java. He had a complex class structure that needed multiple inheritance to work. It became a heavily duplicated inconistent mess with Java | |
MutantTurkey | i hate java. |
MutantTurkey | it is bloated crappy and pathetic |
Strangelv | "I hadn't yet given up on high precision float,s which given Javas lack of operators outside of a couple of built in types also meant doing involved argebra using functions instead of operators |
MutantTurkey | it is all that i stand against in modern computers. |
Strangelv | If it was less inflexibel, I might have embraced it |
MutantTurkey | I can't stand it. |
Strangelv | I was doing my best to be open-minded about it. I should have given up earlier |
MutantTurkey | they say it writes "platform independant code" but honestly. there are only 3 platforms, and mac and linux are very similar. |
Strangelv | In the end I gave up on higher than double precision numbers and moved to Python, where the complexity of my undertaking is what caused work on it to halt |
MutantTurkey | it is much better to write in C/C++ for 3 platforms than use java |
MutantTurkey | i don't like python either though. I don't like any overhead on my languages. |
Strangelv | Then we'd be more complimentary than collaborative. The onyl two languages I've done anything with in the past few yers has been Python and Javascript |
MutantTurkey | D: |
MutantTurkey | I understand why to use Python and Javascript though. |
Strangelv | "if my health were wore reliable I'd have something out the door using one of thos etwo |
MutantTurkey | Java i just can't seem to comprehend the big question: why bother? |
Strangelv | "With Java crashing and burning, especially on the meb, Javascript wins by default in that environment, where we have probabyl teh single biggest cross-platform environment of all time |
MutantTurkey | basically |
Strangelv | "any serious browser within the past decade can run a JScript/LiveScript/JavaScript standard on any serious platform. Irix? RiscOS? A teleptone? |
MutantTurkey | who uses Irix? who uses RiscOS? |
Strangelv | "They're workstation OSs that are used in some proprietary environments. Irix is admittedly depreciated |
Strangelv | Irix was SGI |
MutantTurkey | ah |
Strangelv | RiscOS was/is used by several companies |
Strangelv | "Then there's BeOS/Haiku users. People running these systems are NOT going to be low end irrelevent end users |
Strangelv | "Buth low end irrelevant end us-ers also benefit. Install Firefox 2 on your Windows 98 machien and have at it |
Strangelv | "or even Firefox 1.5 |
Strangelv | "or 1.0 |
MutantTurkey | D: |
MutantTurkey | thank god i use linux. |
Strangelv | XP's EULA I couldn't agree with meant I lacked an upgrlade parth after Windows 2000. Id been trying to learn Linux since 1997. I finally was using it almost exclusizely by 2005 |
MutantTurkey | I stopped using windows in like, hold on let me think...2007? but i just went cold turkey. no more windows |
MutantTurkey | just linux |
Strangelv | I was quite far from cold turkey. I didn't transition the notebook I did almost everything onat that time until I realized that everything I was running was either cross platform or easily replaced with an equivalent |
Strangelv | It took a long time for me to arrive at that point |
MutantTurkey | yeah alot of people are like that |
Strangelv | Our customizability is something that can help. If one's environment is largeyl familiar, there's less risk of panicking. Note that panic is not a decision. It's your low end brain functions deciding that your upper brain functions can't handle the situation |
MutantTurkey | right oh |
MutantTurkey | I'm looking at all these bugs. I thikni could close alot of them. Many of them are just package requests and simple things i could help with i think. |
*Strangelv had teh same wallpaper, the same sounds, and picked a very nice looking combination of widgets and window decorations that are structurally 9x to the hilt, just nicer looking that he still uses today | |
Strangelv | "Yes, we need to clear out the low hanging frout |
MutantTurkey | agreed. |
MutantTurkey | bug squashing day! |
MutantTurkey | that would be excellent. I've done a few for some other projects and we got alot done |
MutantTurkey | because you end up neglecting easy stuff by focusing in on important problems |
Strangelv | Betwene my level of overcommitment and other limitations, I'm not expecting to help with packaging or coding or things that would require me to learn too much that's new. I have too much to learn already. Art is something I can do more easily, if only I knew where teh art was to be found and how the configuration files I needed to use worked |
MutantTurkey | yeah the whole art thing is a bit complicated. |
*Strangelv uses Keramik for a style and Plastik window decorations | |
Strangelv | Art can't change until we have a handle on it. Are Tim and I the only peolp who can make changes to the artwork section? |
MutantTurkey | to the svn? |
Strangelv | "the wiki |
MutantTurkey | Oh no idea |
Strangelv | "especially teh page i pointed out earlier |
MutantTurkey | yeah possibly. |
MutantTurkey | how much would we need to change artwork wise? new themes don't seem to be terribly complicated to make. or is something broken that needs fixing? |
Strangelv | It would be very helpful if other people added some information there. |
Strangelv | We need to know how to make them |
Strangelv | "How complicated? I don't know -- and I need to know |
Strangelv | "And especially precisely what those complications are |
MutantTurkey | isn't there any kde3.5 documentation that would explain how? |
Strangelv | I'm thinking mascot -- logo -- new color scheme |
MutantTurkey | and small theme changes, to make it look up to-date |
Strangelv | I saw a link to one teh other day but failed to bookmark it |
Strangelv | "It's one we need to mirror before teh KDE people delete it |
MutantTurkey | but still definitely similar to previously. |
MutantTurkey | DL yes defintely |
MutantTurkey | hmmm I'lll look aorund |
Strangelv | The right balance between continuity and new branding is something we need to figuer out. I believe we'll have a better idea once we've figured out a mascot and/or icon that is truly descriptive of TDE |
MutantTurkey | yeah |
Strangelv | Thus my brainstorm point of Mr Potato head. We can't use it, but it's a very good exabmple of teh sort of thing I'm looking for |
MutantTurkey | theme wise, it just needs to be cleaned up a tiny bit, mostly stuff that isn't obvious but makes a difference, but people should still think "wow this looks like good old kde, but even nicer" |
MutantTurkey | OH I FINALLY UNDERSTAND. |
Strangelv | Doesn't need to be a toy or even particularly playful |
MutantTurkey | potato head has changeable parts |
MutantTurkey | do'h |
Strangelv | Yes |
Strangelv | User puts on ansd arranges teh parts to suit that user's needs |
Strangelv | It's teh user's call, not ours |
MutantTurkey | right |
MutantTurkey | that goes nicely with the ArchLinux philosophy |
Strangelv | We're not here to ram any solution down the user's throat at all. Disgust with the evry concept is likely the reason we're here |
MutantTurkey | one thing we want to do is avoid over loading the ram |
MutantTurkey | Strangelv: I can't seem to find any examples of how to create a kde3.5 based theme D: its all dissapeared |
Strangelv | WE may already need to make heavy use of archive.org |
MutantTurkey | indeed |
*Strangelv stil finds it insane that the people continuing on the long history and tradition are teh fork while the people doing something completely different that just uses some of the code are the offical main progression | |
MutantTurkey | yeah |
MutantTurkey | they are making alot of progress |
MutantTurkey | anyway I am quite tired. I have gotten much accomplished today so i think i will go relax. |
MutantTurkey | Strangelv: good night, and keep thinking of that mascot |
*cpatrick08 has joined #trinity-desktop | |
cpatrick08 | i am trying to download trinity kde maverick and when i go to http://ppa2.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/redirect.php?file=cdimages/kubuntu/maverick/kubuntu-10.10-trinity-desktop-amd64.iso it gives me a problem loading page error message |
cpatrick08 | i tried it on firefox and chromium daily |
Piki | cpatrick08: it looks like the whole quickbuild.personcomputing.net server is down. we'll have to wait for kb9vqf (Tim) to check it out |
Piki | dunno where he is, he's normally on around now |
cpatrick08 | ok so do you have a timetable on how much long till it will be fixed or not |
Piki | no |
cpatrick08 | ok thanks |
Piki | i didn't know it was down, and he didn't mention it |
cpatrick08 | ok |
Piki | but you can always install one of the ubuntu/debian versions listed on the front page at trinity.pearsoncomputing.net and install from the third-party repository (considering that repository isn't the quickbuild server that you're trying to download from, i don't use ubuntu or debian( |
cpatrick08 | ok |
Piki | looks like the debian one uses a regular mirror, that should work if you want to try it |
cpatrick08 | oh ok |
Piki | looks like the ubuntu version uses the quickbuild, so you're better off trying debian until kb9vqf comes on to fix it |
cpatrick08 | ok thanks so much for your help |
Piki | i'll make sure to tell him when he's here if i'm still on, if not i'll email the mailing list |
Piki | actually, i'll send the email now in case i forget |
cpatrick08 | thank you so much |
Piki | alright, sorry that happened, again i didn't realize it was down, i never use it, but the email is sent to the trinity-devel mailing list, and i'll make sure Tim gets the message if i'm still here when he comes on |
Piki | he checks the mailing list, though, so he'll get the message either way |
cpatrick08 | ok |
*kb9vqf has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | Piki: I've been avoiding IRC during the DDoS attack |
kb9vqf | It just got too frustrating |
kb9vqf | Piki: QuickBuild is down along with the mirrors until around Friday or so |
kb9vqf | See Bug 439 for the details |
tbottu | Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=439 blo, P5, ---, kb9vqf, ASSI, http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/ does not respond |
kb9vqf | cpatrick08: See above :) |
cpatrick08 | ok thanks |
kb9vqf | Sorry for the inconvenience |
kb9vqf | Donations are running a bit low lately so I didn't have the funds to overnight the replacement parts |
cpatrick08 | that is ok thanks for the quick relpy |
cpatrick08 | reply* |
kb9vqf | No problem :) |
Piki | ah |
Piki | didn't know that |
kb9vqf | It went down over the weekend |
kb9vqf | Network equipment is hard to come by in my area :( |
Piki | i haven't used quickbuild |
kb9vqf | It's for Debian/Ubuntu |
kb9vqf | Which is probably why you haven't |
Piki | kb9vqf: the router/modem, or for the server itself? |
kb9vqf | The connection between the two |
Piki | ethernet? |
kb9vqf | fiber |
Piki | hmm |
Piki | not at the local best buy? |
kb9vqf | You must be joking :-P |
kb9vqf | Fiber optic equipment is available on the two coasts and in Texas |
Piki | nope |
Piki | not joking |
Piki | best buy always seems to have everything |
kb9vqf | My local Best Buy has almost nothing |
Piki | except linux |
kb9vqf | And they want 4x the online retail price for any computer parts they *do* carry |
Piki | one of the largest computer chains, with nothing? |
kb9vqf | Well, if you want outdated parts then yes I guess one can go there :-P |
kb9vqf | Maybe Best Buy is different by you |
Piki | everything is outdated |
kb9vqf | It's horrid here |
Piki | before they even ship it out |
kb9vqf | Hehe |
Piki | i'm sure the Intel i7 is outdated |
kb9vqf | OK, try finding a gigabit pci-express network card on the shelf in Best Buy |
kb9vqf | You can't |
Piki | i don't use gigabit or pci-express |
kb9vqf | Well that's why :) |
kb9vqf | My equipment is high performance |
kb9vqf | High cost |
Piki | i haven't even looked |
kb9vqf | Hard to find stuff |
kb9vqf | :( |
kb9vqf | Anyway... |
kb9vqf | Parts are in the mail |
Piki | kb9vqf: i'm sure anything at best buy is better than walmart, i've had five sandisk flash drives from the local walmart die within two months each, as opposed to the same make/model from best buy |
kb9vqf | Heh |
kb9vqf | I know |
Xu_R|Away | kb9vqf: thanks for the batch commit - although the first time I checked out, it broke kdelibs for some reason, then it succeeded xD |
kb9vqf | I have had a theory for a while that Walmart only sells B-grade products |
Piki | the one from best buy was goin on 6 months before it ended up in the washer with my pants |
kb9vqf | Xu_R|Away: So it works now? |
cpatrick08 | @piki which distro do you run trinity kde 3 in |
Xu_R|Away | yup :D |
kb9vqf | How is Freenode by the way? |
kb9vqf | Better? |
Xu_R|Away | much better |
Xu_R|Away | no lag |
Piki | cpatrick08: none, i have to build it first |
Piki | i use Ark Linux, only one to work for any hardware for me |
cpatrick08 | oh ok |
Xu_R|Away | kb9vqf: also, courtesy of MutantTurkey, we thought of this: http://96.245.17.6/ |
Xu_R|Away | the Latest News - managed with simple text files. |
kb9vqf | That's not half bad :D |
Xu_R|Away | nope :D |
kb9vqf | Much better than the old site! |
Piki | kb9vqf: i've heard walmart buys out the refurbs and rejects |
Xu_R|Away | aye. |
Xu_R|Away | brb in a few |
kb9vqf | Piki: Woudn't surprise me |
kb9vqf | OK |
kb9vqf | Hmm...the screenshots page is broken |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: ^^^^^ |
kb9vqf | I get a 404 |
kb9vqf | Otherwise it looks good |
*kb9vqf wants to put it into production soon | |
cpatrick08 | i was wondering what the difference in the enterprise and desktop editions for ubuntu were other than one being mainly for businesses |
Piki | cpatrick08: actually, i'm going to package TDE for Ark, we're going to do both a TDE and KDE4 release, i just need to get things setup for building, help test TDE 3.5.13, and then make the packages for 3.5.13 when it goes stable |
kb9vqf | cpatrick08: They only differ in installed software and default desktop theme |
kb9vqf | The Enterprise version has a less clunky default UI |
kb9vqf | More like Windows 2000 |
cpatrick08 | oh ok |
Piki | i've never got any *buntu to work properly |
kb9vqf | It also has a ton more software |
kb9vqf | :) |
kb9vqf | Hence the DVD |
Piki | i've more luck with plain debian, and even that doesn't seem to like my hardware |
kb9vqf | Huh |
kb9vqf | What's your hardware again? |
kb9vqf | The Atom board? |
Piki | no |
kb9vqf | Oh sorry |
Piki | it's a pentium dual core |
kb9vqf | Thinking of someone else there |
Piki | i don't think i've mentioned it here |
Piki | i can pastebin my lspci |
*kb9vqf probably can't do anything about it | |
kb9vqf | :-P |
kb9vqf | Ubuntu does what they will with the core system, regardless of what they break |
Piki | kb9vqf: not even the ubuntu irc could do anything |
Piki | they seemed completely confused as to why their system was assigning the proprietary ati driver to a 7500 ati model on a 2003 laptop when it should be the open source driver |
kb9vqf | Oh ATI |
kb9vqf | I have such bad associations |
Piki | this machine doesn't have an ati |
Piki | it's an intel |
kb9vqf | ?!?!? |
Piki | and the GUI is still very laggy |
kb9vqf | I have an Intel based Lenovo |
kb9vqf | Works great out of the box |
kb9vqf | :-/ |
Piki | yeah, and so should this one, right now on Ark devel, it works perfectly, but on Kubuntu using kde4, it lags badly |
Piki | and that's kubuntu stable |
kb9vqf | Well KDE4 is just that way I suppose ;-) |
Piki | yeah, but i'm on kde4 |
kb9vqf | On Arch |
Piki | it is lagging some, but not nearly as bad as kubuntu |
Piki | Ark |
Piki | with a K |
kb9vqf | Ark |
kb9vqf | Sorry |
kb9vqf | I don't know why I keep thinking Arch |
Piki | i couldn't get my arch network working |
Piki | in fact, the only thing that should give me any trouble is the Broadcom wireless, and it's been supported with the b43 driver (i think) as of kernel 2.6.31 (either that, or .32) |
Piki | all i need to do is drop in the firmware as per the instructions on the linux wireless page, reload the b43 module, and i've got wireless |
kb9vqf | Yeah, Broadcom is pretty well supported these days |
kb9vqf | If I want wireless I buy either Intel or Broadcom |
Piki | i've always had trouble with broadcom |
Piki | http://arklinux.pastebin.com/QbHkrJAJ <-- my lspci |
cpatrick08 | i am using intel pro/wireless3945abg wireless |
Piki | the only other one i've had is a ralink-based linksys, it worked fine between 2.6.20 and 2.6.29, but as of 2.6.30 it started having trouble |
kb9vqf | Huh |
kb9vqf | The only time I had problems with Broadcom was several years ago |
Piki | and i don't think it supports using AES on WPA anyway |
Piki | every broadcom has given me trouble, this is the one that has worked the best |
Piki | in fact, i have one that i was never able to get working any which way i pushed it, it was some sort of wireless-n card |
Piki | couldn't even get it working with just G |
kb9vqf | Wireless N doesn't work well under Linux at all |
kb9vqf | :-P |
Piki | i think it was a a/g/n card |
Piki | well, i don't think there will be much effort in wireless-n until they finalize it (they hadn't last i checked) |
Piki | brb, need to plug in laptop |
kb9vqf | I need to go; mine's almost out of battery anyway |
kb9vqf | Gotta get some things wrapped up |
kb9vqf | Just checked in to straighten out the QuickBuild confusion :) |
Piki | right, i'll see about cmake testing tonight (hopefully) |
Piki | currently scouring the internet to make my vbox work |
*kb9vqf has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Piki | kb9vqf: can't get enough of us? |
cpatrick08 | lol |
Xu_R|Away | kb9vqf: oh, we need more generic screenshots :P |
kb9vqf | Nope |
kb9vqf | Just firing up my other client |
kb9vqf | IRC is still under attack BTW |
kb9vqf | I have a lag of 2s |
kb9vqf | And it took forever to connect |
Xu_R | 2s isn't that bad as before :P |
Piki | i normally have about 2-4s when first connecting |
Piki | then it settles down and goes into the ms |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: well, I think they're starting to give up |
Piki | kb9vqf: i'm going to hopefully start cmake testing tonight |
Xu_R | same - oh, he's no longer here. gah. |
Xu_R | I have a CmakeLog for him. |
Piki | Xu_R: he's here, he's not op |
Piki | 'ed |
Xu_R | bim ge;s bit gere, |
Xu_R | *no, he's not here |
Piki | then it's just his nick |
Xu_R | he's not here, Piki. |
Piki | you said that |
Piki | i am observing that his nick is in the nicklist |
*Piki wanders why people always get uptight about stupid stuff | |
*MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: hey |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: already told him :) and he was wondering about the screenshots page |
MutantTurkey | oh wonderful. |
Xu_R | otherwise, he's going to use your site |
Xu_R | :D |
Xu_R | hehe |
MutantTurkey | did i explain the simple news system? |
MutantTurkey | screenshots doesn't exist yet. |
MutantTurkey | I need screenshots in order to do that D: |
MutantTurkey | I think i will request them on the mailing list. |
cpatrick08 | how could we get screenshots to you |
MutantTurkey | then use a simple php script for a slideshow |
MutantTurkey | cpatrick08: hmmmm. that is a good question, obviously attachements aren't for the mailing list. |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: you = awesome like kb9vqf and samelian |
MutantTurkey | cpatrick08: any ideas? |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: :D |
cpatrick08 | you could make a email for the screenshots and put it on the website and in the mailing list |
Piki | MutantTurkey: maybe you can make an upload page on your test site that will only accept images? |
MutantTurkey | cpatrick08: ah, for example screenshots@pearsoncomputing.net or whatever, and ask for submissions? |
cpatrick08 | yes something like that |
MutantTurkey | I've directed all other inquiries to the ML |
MutantTurkey | cpatrick08: alright, I will ask tim whenever he comes around. shouldn't be trouble to setup |
Xu_R | ping kb9vqf, I need to ask you one question before you truly leave for the night |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: can you make heads or tails of this -lqt-mt, since samelian isn't here: http://lincom.pastebin.com/bsqLuLXK (CMakeError.log) |
Piki | i thought he wasn't here? |
Xu_R | Piki: if he checks later, he'll get it. I guess... |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: let me try |
Xu_R | or, I can wait two hours and then it'll be 6am at samelian's place ;) |
MutantTurkey | well the problem is that it cannot find the qt-mt library |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: Yes, I know |
MutantTurkey | is that qt-multi thread? |
Xu_R | the problem is that I specified a path for it... |
MutantTurkey | D: |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: yes |
Xu_R | aye. samelian's been trying to debug it, since it used to work before on openSUSE |
MutantTurkey | no you need to specify the path to the includes also i think |
MutantTurkey | or sorry no you don't |
Xu_R | nope. |
Xu_R | hmm... |
MutantTurkey | well, the way to debug is this: what changed? |
MutantTurkey | whatever changed broke it. thats the problem. |
MutantTurkey | that is always how i approach my problems |
MutantTurkey | look through your commits. |
Xu_R | I know what changed... |
Xu_R | but I can't understand how it broke it... |
MutantTurkey | what changed? |
Xu_R | we patched qt3 - SuSE accepted my submit request and imported the patched qt3, which this is using |
Xu_R | but cmake can't do stuff with it, apparently? >_< |
Xu_R | hmm.... |
MutantTurkey | odd |
Xu_R | yea |
Xu_R | what's even weirder is I'm looking at libqt-mt.so right now |
MutantTurkey | D: that is quite strange |
MutantTurkey | I know you are busy, would you mind just doing a quick check through of the website? It's fine if you can't, but another set of eyes always helps sort things out |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: np |
Xu_R | *top bar changes... again ;)* |
MutantTurkey | it did? or what are we needing to change? |
Xu_R | no, it said news at the top before. |
Xu_R | then the news at the top disappeared |
Xu_R | when I refreshed, lol |
cpatrick08 | isn't debian lenny oldstable since squeeze was releases on the 6th |
MutantTurkey | you think news should be in the top? |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: red flag, you don't have a download source tarballs link |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: nah, tis fine where it is :) |
MutantTurkey | cpatrick08: good thinking chief |
cpatrick08 | np |
Piki | i think stable and oldstable might be refering to tde, not to debian or ubuntu |
Piki | may be a good idea to check with kb9vqf though |
Xu_R | Piki: no, to debian and ubuntu |
cpatrick08 | well ubuntu lucid is oldstable on the website |
cpatrick08 | so it is ubuntu and debian |
MutantTurkey | I am lost now. |
Xu_R | aye, but I see why Piki might have thought |
Xu_R | because if you notice, the versions increment as well... |
MutantTurkey | you've confused me. |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: actually, never mind, I go with Piki. Don't change it. |
Xu_R | STABLE refers to 3.5.12 |
MutantTurkey | yes, just saw that. |
cpatrick08 | oh ok |
MutantTurkey | the markup is awful though D: i don't think it should define colors in COLOR="COLOR" anymore. |
Xu_R | lol |
Piki | MutantTurkey: for those of us who don't know color codes... ;-) |
MutantTurkey | if you click on the installation instructions for slackware for example, it skips down to the slackware section of the install page :) |
MutantTurkey | Piki: no, i ment it should be in css supposedly |
cpatrick08 | shouldn't you put a link to the automatically nightly builds for ubuntu |
Piki | ah |
Piki | MutantTurkey: i haven't done css |
cpatrick08 | or kubuntu in this case |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: Get ready, because you should get ready to add Fedora, openSUSE, and Mandriva support ;) |
MutantTurkey | right. |
MutantTurkey | I will be creating a new table of course |
MutantTurkey | actually a new page entirely i think, for supported distros |
Piki | and Ark, within a couple weeks after 3.5.13, i'm going to start making my specs soon, whenver i figure out cmake |
MutantTurkey | how is cmake moving along? is samelian making progress? |
Piki | we need someone to start work on a wiki page on compiling with cmake |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: definitely |
MutantTurkey | good good. |
Xu_R | You can find all the progress at thel.ro |
MutantTurkey | Piki: yes there is a page i think |
MutantTurkey | or we were talking of making one before |
Piki | i saw some pages on converting to cmake |
Xu_R | hmm... |
MutantTurkey | yes samelian was making some |
Piki | didn't really examine them to see if they have compile info, though |
MutantTurkey | i think that was just notes |
MutantTurkey | the wiki is slow for sure though :( |
Piki | yeah, i do better with step-by-step instructions |
MutantTurkey | Piki: same here. |
Xu_R | whoohoo! fixed my cmake problem... |
Xu_R | now to rebuild half my packages for opensuse... XD |
MutantTurkey | :) excellent |
Xu_R | now to deal with the two biggest pains of KDE3 |
Xu_R | or rather, KDE in general |
Xu_R | 1. KDEBASE |
Xu_R | 2. KDEPIM |
MutantTurkey | kdepim is what? |
Xu_R | personal information management |
MutantTurkey | ah sorry. |
Piki | kontact and related stuff ;-) |
Piki | lol |
Piki | delayed response |
Piki | attention divided three ways |
Xu_R | wait a minute |
Xu_R | GAHHHH |
Xu_R | I fail |
Xu_R | AGAIN |
MutantTurkey | pastebin |
Xu_R | no need |
MutantTurkey | ? |
Xu_R | apparently, I fail at recalling the difference between lib and lib64 -_- |
MutantTurkey | -_- |
*ubuntu_ has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Piki | 32bit v 64bit ;-) |
MutantTurkey | alright, I'm going to (actually) go to bed. if tim shows back up just let him know I'm pretty much ready with the site, just need him to tell me any last comments etc. |
Xu_R | ok MutantTurkey. night :) |
cpatrick08 | good night MutantTurkey |
Piki | cya MutantTurkey |
MutantTurkey | night all. |
Piki | hopefully he stays away from that radioactive sation tonight |
Xu_R | gah, I can't believe I made that mistake.... damnit! |
Xu_R | wow.... opensuse's rpmlint reports really go through the spec file with a fine tooth comb |
Xu_R | they catch everything that fedora's and mandriva's spec files don't. |
Xu_R | *rpmbuilds don't |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: OK, I see I was needed tonight :-P |
kb9vqf | Oh well |
kb9vqf | I spent too long today getting that batch commit ready |
kb9vqf | So I don't have much time for IRC tonight |
Piki | lol, maybe i can store my own RPMs on an SDHC hard on my wii and set it up as an ftp server on my machine, and setup a dyndns or noip account for it? could allow the Arkies to test my rpms before i submit them to bero lol |
kb9vqf | Piki: I can host them for you if you want |
kb9vqf | On the mirrors |
kb9vqf | Same as Slackware :) |
Piki | kb9vqf: we'll be including them in the main Ark repos, i just want to make sure they actually *work* before submitting them, i'm not familiar with cmake and i've only done a few rpms |
kb9vqf | Piki: Right |
kb9vqf | I just meant temporarily |
kb9vqf | Unless you like serving them from your Wii ;-) |
Piki | kb9vqf: it'd be better if i didn't, cause then i wouldn't be able to play my games or watch youtube on the tv, but i don't want to put the extra burden on your servers ;-) |
Piki | we don't have a lot of testers, so most of the burden would be uploading corrected packages |
kb9vqf | Piki: I don't mind, as long as you can wait until next week when the mirroring system is back online |
Piki | which will probably happen a lot due to my inexperience |
kb9vqf | I'll set up an rsync drop box or something for you |
Piki | kb9vqf: my packages probably won't even be ready ;-) |
kb9vqf | OK |
Piki | i still need to figure out cmake first |
*cpatrick08 has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Xu_R | lol kb9vqf |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: MutantTurkey will finish the screenshots page soon |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: Sounds goo |
kb9vqf | *good |
Xu_R | and then you can make it your new website :D |
kb9vqf | Even better :) |
Xu_R | wheee lol |
Xu_R | I'm fighting with SuSE's rpmlint right now |
kb9vqf | I would send screenshots but I usually have proprietary stuff up on the screen :-/ |
Xu_R | it's collecting the lint from the dryer lol |
kb9vqf | Heh |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: well, so do I lol. :-\ |
cpatrick08 | is there a way to download the debian iso's or is the only way to get trinity kde 3 on debian to add the lines to the /etc/apt/sources.list file |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey wanted a screenshot of 3.5.12 - i just realized I accidentally put Wuala on there -__-" |
Piki | anybody wuala? |
Piki | *wuala? |
Xu_R | whoo! testing the new mageia iso |
Xu_R | wow, the graphics do look like they were made on kpaint (as bad as mspaint, LOL) |
Xu_R | half of them are nice and professional, the others... well, like a 2 year old did it |
cpatrick08 | is there a way to download the debian iso's or is the only way to get trinity kde 3 on debian to add the lines to the /etc/apt/sources.list file |
Xu_R | cpatrick08: only by adding the lines to your /etc/apt/sources.list file |
cpatrick08 | ok thanks |
Piki | cpatrick08: btw, as of 3.5.11, it's no longer KDE, it's TDE (Trinity Desktop Environment) |
Piki | just anFYI |
cpatrick08 | true |
cpatrick08 | ok |
Piki | oh nice, wii-linux finally supports x11 |

*TokRa provides mirror.trinity.lv, located in Latvia (EU), syncing it every 24h with the main server | |
hallvor | Nice, I am in Europe, so that should be a little better |
Piki | actually, my defrag is a bash script that sorts based on directory depth, directory size, and file size |
Piki | i may modify it at some point to check access times |
TokRa | Piki, what is the filesystem in question? |
Piki | TokRa: jfs, it has a defrag, but it's been reported not to work in linux |
TokRa | Actually, I never thought any Linux fs needs a defragmentation |
*TokRa still uses reiserfs | |
Piki | for the average user, it normally doesn't, but for huge files or a server under heavy load, it does help, especially after not being defragged in ages |
Piki | but it's more about the physical disk |
TokRa | hallvor: you might have an extra "/trinity" in your path, according to the logfiles |
Piki | even with a journal, the read/write head still has to move around a lot |
Piki | and files can get fragmented due to other files being in the way |
TokRa | hallvor: http://mirror.trinity.lv replaces http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity, not the http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net |
hallvor | I see.. let me test |
kb9vqf | Piki: Or if you let the server run out of disk space... *cough* *hack* *wheeze* |
kb9vqf | :) |
Piki | yes, that too |
Piki | or if the disk is pretty near full |
*kb9vqf has done that WAY too many times :-P | |
Piki | errr |
Piki | same thing |
Piki | lol |
Piki | but that can happen at home, not just servers |
kb9vqf | Of course |
hallvor | I was able to upgrade now, but got s strange message: 62% [12 Translation-nn bzip2 0] [Connecting to mirror.trinity.lv]bzip2: (stdin) is not a bzip2 file. Think I'll go back to the main mirror later... |
kb9vqf | Piki: From what I understand of the filesystems, they only do online (on-write) defragmentation if there's enough space. Otherwise files just go wherever they will fit :-/ |
kb9vqf | TokRa: Looks like a partial sync :-{ |
TokRa | kb9vqf: sorry? |
hallvor | aptitude update later might fix it? |
kb9vqf | TokRa: See hallvor's error |
kb9vqf | I think one of the files did not sync to your mirror correctluy |
kb9vqf | *correctly |
kb9vqf | This might be a system wide glitch ATM |
hallvor | oh |
*kb9vqf needs quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net online ASAP | |
hallvor | I will test later and let you know if it persists |
kb9vqf | OK |
kb9vqf | Service restoration information is available on Bug 439 |
tbottu | Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=439 blo, P5, ---, kb9vqf, ASSI, http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/ does not respond |
kb9vqf | hallvor: ^^^ |
kb9vqf | You can subscribe to that if you want to know when quickbuild is back up |
Piki | kb9vqf: as i understand, if a file is already written, it won't move if you just "add" to it, it will try to add the new info after the file, or if something else is in the way, it will find the best spot for it |
TokRa | :( |
TokRa | kb9vqf: is the partial sync problem on my side? |
kb9vqf | Piki: I'm not sure; I thought most file systems would reallocate a larger chunk for the file than is actually needed |
kb9vqf | TokRa: Not sure |
TokRa | hallvor: try to change mirror.trinity.lv to mirror1.trinity.lv and try updating again |
kb9vqf | We'll have to wait until quickbuild is back up to know for sure |
Piki | kb9vqf: probably depends on which filesystem you use |
kb9vqf | Or try the U of I mirror |
kb9vqf | Piki: Yup |
kb9vqf | I'm thinking ext3/ext4 |
kb9vqf | but XFS probably does not |
hallvor | TokRa: ok |
Piki | i tend to use jfs, works quite well for me |
hallvor | TorRa: I still get the same error |
Piki | in fact, Ark used ext3 awhile back, and a bunch of us outvoted our head dev in switching to jfs, so that's our default now |
hallvor | TokRa..., sorry |
TokRa | :( :( :( |
*Xu_R|School has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Xu_R|School | ohai, stopping in for 6 minutes ;) |
kb9vqf | Hi |
kb9vqf | How's kdebase? |
Xu_R|School | kb9vqf: truthfully, Tim just posted what he had for kdebase, so I haven't really gotten fully around to it |
Xu_R|School | but I think I should be able to finish by tonight |
Xu_R|School | (Tim Williams for MDV, btw) |
kb9vqf | Ah, OK |
Xu_R|School | ok, it's been 6 minutes. bai lol |
Xu_R|School | teacher shoving us out door XD |
Piki | time to go, i'm over my limit and getting hungry ;-) |
Piki | hopefully the defrag is done once i'm home lol |
Piki | laterz |
samelian | kb9vqf: for what reason we have kpilot in kdepim? |
samelian | if nobody have PalmPilot, we can test it |
kb9vqf | samelian: Not sure |
kb9vqf | Is there a replacement program, e.g. for GTK? |
samelian | cannot* |
samelian | kb9vqf: but anybody use PalmPilot? :) |
kb9vqf | I don't |
samelian | me neither |
kb9vqf | I wish there was a palm-pilot-like device that could run Trinity :) |
kb9vqf | That I WOULD use |
samelian | in any case, is bad ideea to insert ultra-super-specialized programs in trinity base |
kb9vqf | Probaby, yes |
kb9vqf | *Probably |
kb9vqf | Can you split it out? |
samelian | I think yes |
kb9vqf | i.e. put its source into an applications/kpilot directory? |
kb9vqf | OK |
kb9vqf | Do that :0 |
kb9vqf | :) |
samelian | ok |
kb9vqf | Hmmm....all this snow melting is not good |
kb9vqf | I'm getting power fluctuations |
kb9vqf | Spikes/sags |
samelian | i ported yesteday akregator to cmake |
kb9vqf | Good |
samelian | I think we must create some rss |
kb9vqf | For the Trinity website? |
kb9vqf | Sure |
kb9vqf | Yell at MutantTurkey for that :)( |
samelian | and replace default rss in akregator |
samelian | to pointing to trinity, not to kde |
kb9vqf | Right |
*kb9vqf knows nothing about RSS thought | |
kb9vqf | Wow, I really cannot type today |
kb9vqf | I think I'll leave that to the fledgling Website team |
samelian | i do not use rss neither, but seems nice feature |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | I launched it once to test it |
kb9vqf | Seemed very nice indeed |
samelian | we can announce progress of trinity :) |
samelian | cmake porting progress etc |
kb9vqf | Works for me :) |
kb9vqf | Let's get the new site in first |
kb9vqf | I'm just waiting for MutantTurkey to wrap it up |
kb9vqf | Then I'll see about adding an RSS feed |
samelian | i do not understand what David Rankin did :) |
kb9vqf | Me either |
kb9vqf | I don't know the CMake porting status though |
samelian | sometime he talking about autoconf, another time about cmake |
kb9vqf | He tried to use both :-P |
samelian | and the result is a mess :) |
kb9vqf | Yup |
kb9vqf | I replied to him on the list |
samelian | hmm, seems that I have no ideea how to move kpilot to applications :) |
samelian | kb9vqf: you can do it for me? |
kb9vqf | In SVN you mean? |
samelian | yes |
kb9vqf | Yes I can do that |
kb9vqf | But you'll have to fix up Automake/Cmake :) |
samelian | cmake is not completed yet for kpilot |
kb9vqf | Right |
samelian | kdepim, actually |
kb9vqf | I mainly mean Automake |
kb9vqf | Or maybe we'll just deprectate and remove Automake for kpilot |
kb9vqf | That would probably be best |
samelian | actually seems that kpilot using cmake, from upstream |
kb9vqf | Really |
samelian | but i have no ideea is working |
samelian | if is worging* |
kb9vqf | So the KDE3 variant has CMake support? |
samelian | bleah |
samelian | i have no ideea |
kb9vqf | Oh, OK |
samelian | in any case, apps which need unusual devices for working must be removed from trinity base |
kb9vqf | Right |
kb9vqf | Anything hardware-dependent |
samelian | yes |
kb9vqf | I'll move the folder in an hour or so |
kb9vqf | I have to scrub my SVN directory |
samelian | ok |
kb9vqf | To make sure I'm not committing any breakage :) |
samelian | hehe |
samelian | kb9vqf: also, if you have time, check if dcopidlng directory can be removed as well |
kb9vqf | samelian: I think that is a core component, no? |
kb9vqf | dcopidl |
samelian | in kdepim, no |
kb9vqf | Oh, OK |
samelian | seems that was marked for erasing long time ago |
kb9vqf | So it's there by accident? |
samelian | dnl we need to use our own copy, since kmailicalIface needs post 3.3 fixes in it |
samelian | dnl TODO: remove once we rely on kdelibs 3.4 |
kb9vqf | Ok |
kb9vqf | I'll remove it :) |
*samelian has joined #trinity-desktop | |
*Piki has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Piki | hi |
Piki | this thing is still on it's first defrag, and still a long way to go |
Piki | :-P |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: back, but about to head out to tennis lol. I grabbed his kdebase3 spec and i'm taking a look at it now |
Piki | i started it at noon EDT |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: I think I will be able to have a preliminary spec by tonight, and if all goes well |
kb9vqf | samelian: Changes are in SVN as of revision 1221130 |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: working packages by tommorrow (assuming they sync to ftp.heanet.ie) |
kb9vqf | Great :) |
Xu_R | now to head out - bbl |
samelian | kb9vqf: ok |
samelian | kb9vqf: tqfindExtension and tqfindHistory are new changes? |
kb9vqf | samelian: Yes |
kb9vqf | Are they not in TQt for Qt3? |
kb9vqf | They should be... |
samelian | when you added it? |
kb9vqf | Recently |
samelian | aha |
kb9vqf | In the big batch update |
samelian | i think I must recompile base packages |
kb9vqf | yes |
samelian | I will use this opportunity to swith to gcc 4.5 |
kb9vqf | Good idea |
Piki | samelian: please do, we want to make it as compilable as posssible on recent gcc versions ;-) |
samelian | of course |
samelian | i'm on ~x86 keyword on gentoo :) |
samelian | i'm a kamikaze |
Piki | i'll be doing x86_64 and x86 |
Piki | perhaps if i get a working desktop, i can do ia64 |
Piki | (desktop, as in a tower) |
*MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop | |
TokRa | Iyi geceler |
Piki | hi MutantTurkey |
Piki | ugh, getting tired of waiting for the defrag |
Piki | wtf? suddenly have a hug number of things of my taskbar for no reason |
MutantTurkey | hiya |
Piki | MutantTurkey: how's the site coming? |
MutantTurkey | http://96.245.17.6/ |
MutantTurkey | I've added a news feed, almost everything is complete, just need to add a screenshots section |
TokRa | looks nice |
Piki | taking a long time to connect, but i'm able to browse elsewhere |
MutantTurkey | thanks TokRa. |
Piki | doh |
Piki | typo |
Piki | i'm there now, checking |
Piki | nice |
Piki | much better than the current site |
MutantTurkey | any thoughts? |
MutantTurkey | for improvement |
Piki | is there a link for a list of news, other than what's displayed on the front? may be a good idea to have a page listing news that ends up going off the front page |
TokRa | an RSS feed would be nice |
MutantTurkey | Piki: okay i can easily add a new llink at the top |
MutantTurkey | TokRa: for the news feed? D: okay |
samelian | MutantTurkey: indent all boxes with same distance |
TokRa | <kb9vqf> I'm just waiting for MutantTurkey to wrap it up |
TokRa | <kb9vqf> Then I'll see about adding an RSS feed |
TokRa | ^_^ |
MutantTurkey | I am done the site as far as i can tell. |
samelian | pls, someone help to spell this corectly: |
samelian | Is there any way to find user and group? With libssh2_sftp_fstat_ex I can read only uid and gid. For libssh2_sftp_opendir I can use "longentry", but I want for libssh2_sftp_fstat_ex as well. |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: I still don't see the screenshots section |
kb9vqf | Even if you just throw one screenshot in there then I can expand it later on |
MutantTurkey | is there any way to find a user and a group? with libssh2_sftp_fstat_ex i can only read uid and gid, with libssh2_sftp_opendir I can use "longentry", but i want to use libssh2_sftp_fstat_ex as well |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: okay I will do that then. |
*K`zan has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | Thanks :) |
MutantTurkey | what do you think of the news feed? |
samelian | MutantTurkey: thx |
kb9vqf | Looks pretty good |
Piki | good |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: okay, its really simple to work with also |
kb9vqf | Even better :) |
MutantTurkey | literally it is just text files in a directory. very simple to add too |
MutantTurkey | on the screenshots page, should i mention that screenshots are welcome? |
MutantTurkey | wanted actually |
Piki | MutantTurkey: it's been awhile since i did webdesign, can't remember any of it, but i think there's a way to have a table with a border of 0 (so the borders don't show), with a single row that takes up a "percentage" of the browser window, and each column take up a "percentage" of the row, then to align text in each cell, may be a way to align the navigation bar at the top, dunno how well that would work |
MutantTurkey | why? |
Piki | have it a bit centered, maybe about 95% of the browser or something |
MutantTurkey | that sounds very much like old school html from the 90's D: |
Piki | dunno, used to seeing navigations bars like that centered |
samelian | Piki: tables are not recommended for page layout |
TokRa | On the menu row the "screenshots" option points to sceenshots.php (a misspelling) |
MutantTurkey | css is much simpler |
MutantTurkey | ? |
Piki | samelian: it's how i leaned to do it in 2007 webdesign class |
MutantTurkey | TokRa: what miss spelling? is Screen Shots two words? |
samelian | Piki: hehe |
Piki | MutantTurkey: the php file |
samelian | tables are used for data, not for formatting pages |
TokRa | The link to sceenshots.php instead of screenshots.php |
TokRa | "r" is missing |
Piki | sceenshots.php, instead of screenshots.php |
MutantTurkey | oh thanks |
TokRa | welcome |
Piki | MutantTurkey: you're not welcome, get out! |
Piki | lol |
MutantTurkey | D: |
TokRa | please contanct us via the Mailing List => please contact us via the Mailing List. |
MutantTurkey | bye. |
MutantTurkey | :p |
MutantTurkey | TokRa: thank you. |
MutantTurkey | this is exactly what i need you guys for :P Often you don't see the simple stuff. |
samelian | I think we need a domain for TDE |
Piki | yes |
MutantTurkey | i agree |
MutantTurkey | I looked at some available before |
samelian | tde.org are occupied, but not used |
samelian | maybe we can buy it for the owner? |
samelian | from* |
MutantTurkey | i doubt it |
MutantTurkey | 3 letter domains are hard to come by |
*field_it1 has joined #trinity-desktop | |
samelian | that's true, but we ca try |
MutantTurkey | trinity-desktop.org is available. |
samelian | can* |
TokRa | kb9vqf has mentionned trinityde.org or trinitydesktop.org |
kb9vqf | I like trinitydesktop.org personally |
MutantTurkey | same thing |
Piki | ewwe, tde.org uses IIS |
MutantTurkey | D: |
MutantTurkey | so old bahaha |
TokRa | Piki: to be more specific, it responds as IIS ;) |
Piki | TokRa: hmm? |
TokRa | It is possibly to compile Apache making it respond as any other signature |
samelian | i'm pretty sure that is IIS |
TokRa | http://tde.org/qwerty |
TokRa | indeed |
Piki | TokRa: yeah, but what self-respecting f\oss supported would make it respond as MS? ;-) |
samelian | Piki: for fun, why not? :) |
Piki | samelian: more like, to scare people away from my private site, lol |
*TokRa requests the Trinity DE support for http://mslinux.org ASAP ! | |
Piki | monkeys on mars |
TokRa | :D |
Piki | i saw that ages ago |
Piki | lol "Graphical User Interface command-Line Technology (GUILT)" |
samelian | i hope is patented :) |
TokRa | Just call 1-900-MS-LINUX... :P |
MutantTurkey | enough of that. |
MutantTurkey | okies got a screenie page up now with one shot |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Any chance of getting a "click for high res" feature? |
samelian | MutantTurkey: <a href="highres_picture.png" target="_blank">click for high res</a> |
MutantTurkey | oh yeah i have that already. |
MutantTurkey | let me add |
Piki | gah, now i'm remembering part of why i hate defrag in windoze, always took forever lol |
kb9vqf | Hehe |
MutantTurkey | click it now and it will make it larger |
TokRa | MutantTurkey: I'll send you another example |
Piki | 5.5 hrs of defrag, and it's still not done |
TokRa | in some minutes ... |
MutantTurkey | TokRa: okay great :) make sure to send a png or any lossless format really |
TokRa | I mean, a php example |
MutantTurkey | oh :) |
kb9vqf | Nice :) |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Any particular reason why the mailing lists page doesn't work? |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: yes. |
MutantTurkey | because you said that autogenerates so don't create it, you would deal with it. |
kb9vqf | Oh |
kb9vqf | There are two pages |
MutantTurkey | :O oh./ |
kb9vqf | One just has general information |
kb9vqf | That one is NOT autogenerated |
kb9vqf | The archives themselves (linked to from that pages) ARE autogenerated |
kb9vqf | *page |
MutantTurkey | sorry my mistake. would you like me to make that one then? |
kb9vqf | Yes please :) |
kb9vqf | Here's the info: |
kb9vqf | http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/mailing_lists/ |
kb9vqf | Just leave the web archive links alone |
MutantTurkey | I may be unable to do this tonight. |
Piki | MutantTurkey: it loads the pic on it's own in my browser, which shrinks it down, and i have to click again to enlarge it. some browsers don't even allow the click-to-enlarge. i'd suggest having the images load into another page that forces them to be fully-screen, or perhaps have a zoom-in/zoom-out button |
Piki | fully-screen=full-size* |
MutantTurkey | Piki: not my problem if your browser sucks. |
Piki | MutantTurkey: most browsers do that, not just mine |
Piki | even firefox |
MutantTurkey | well, firefox sucks hardest. |
MutantTurkey | :p |
Piki | it loads the pic stretched-down, and one has to click it to enlarge |
Piki | as does rekonq, arora, etc |
MutantTurkey | my web browser just loads the image like it should... |
MutantTurkey | I don't think it is worth loading on another page. frankly that is unnessicary. |
Piki | MutantTurkey: i've never seen that, i've always seen either shrunk down with a click-to-enlarge or no click-to-enlarge |
MutantTurkey | Piki: wrote the browser myself :) |
Piki | and when i click an image to enlarge it, that's what i expect, not a shrunk-down image |
samelian | MutantTurkey: in this case is necessary to open another page |
Piki | MutantTurkey: most people don't bother, they just use someone else's work |
Piki | some of us don't even have the time |
MutantTurkey | :P |
MutantTurkey | only took a few days |
MutantTurkey | source code is like around 300sloc |
Piki | i barely have a few hours to actually sit at a computer, even if i have my nick here |
MutantTurkey | college lends itself to alot of free time |
Piki | i'm sure it would take me longer, especially considering i don't know any code |
TokRa | MutantTurkey: sending you a file via DCC |
MutantTurkey | TokRa: hmmm i don't think it worked. |
MutantTurkey | pidgin is acting quite funny |
MutantTurkey | would you mind emailing them? mutantturkey@gmail |
MutantTurkey | I've got to get ready and eat dinner so I can take a look at that later. |
TokRa | http://u.inga.lv/MutantTurkey.zip |
Piki | MutantTurkey: with a job AND therapy AND a bunch of other things, i don't even have enough time for an education :-( |
Piki | unless i can find a teacher for a few cents an hour that could come to me, but i seriously doubt it |
TokRa | extract the contents onto your wwwroot then check the example.php |
TokRa | if it is ok, place <? include '_hs.php' ?> somewhere in the beginning of your screenshots.php |
TokRa | then let the image tags look like <a href="/media/trinity3_5_12-large.jpg" class="highslide" onClick="return hs.expand(this)"><img src="media/trinity3_5_12-thumb.jpg"></a> |
*TokRa powers up the netbook to make some screenshots too | |
Xu_R | back |
Piki | front |
Xu_R | Got dinner, then I can commit full time to kdebase merging and testing! :D |
samelian | kb9vqf: I recompiled tqt and kdelibs |
samelian | but this errors still: |
samelian | /home/serghei/projects/trinity/kdepim/kalarm/find.cpp: In member function 'void Find::display()': |
samelian | /home/serghei/projects/trinity/kdepim/kalarm/find.cpp:93: error: 'class KFindDialog' has no member named 'tqfindExtension' |
samelian | /home/serghei/projects/trinity/kdepim/kalarm/find.cpp: In member function 'void Find::slotFind()': |
samelian | /home/serghei/projects/trinity/kdepim/kalarm/find.cpp:214: error: 'class KFindDialog' has no member named 'tqfindHistory' |
kb9vqf | Huh |
kb9vqf | OK, let me fix TQt then |
TokRa | MutantTurkey: http://u.inga.lv/tde1.png http://u.inga.lv/tde2.png http://u.inga.lv/tde3.png |
Piki | kb9vqf: btw, perhaps TQt can be EQt (Enhanced Qt) when it's finished? |
kb9vqf | samelian: OK, try again with SVN revision 1221138 for tqtinterface |
samelian | ok |
kb9vqf | Piki: I don't know |
samelian | actually tqt is not an enhanced qt |
samelian | have same functionalities as Qt3 |
Xu_R | I go for no EQt, TQt is fine |
samelian | maybe patched Qt3 can be EQt |
samelian | but I think will be confusing |
Xu_R | and kb9vqf: sometime in the future, we need to rename everything kdebase to tdebase and such |
Xu_R | FYI. |
kb9vqf | Sometime :) |
Xu_R | hehe |
kb9vqf | After Qt4 support |
kb9vqf | And HAL |
Xu_R | agreed |
kb9vqf | And all those irritating bugs :) |
samelian | and cmake |
Xu_R | we need to have all that stuff off our backs first :) |
Xu_R | yup |
samelian | and many other critical things :) |
Xu_R | I vote for NO CHANGES now :P |
samelian | haha |
samelian | you vote no for you own proposition :) |
Xu_R | yes |
Xu_R | I am weird yet awesome like that hehe |
samelian | instead kate will be "tate" :) |
Xu_R | LOL, that doesn't sound fancy at all though :P |
Piki | tater - Trinity Advanced Text Editor and Revisor lol |
Xu_R | ... |
Piki | and maybe we can add a "tots" |
Xu_R | No. |
Xu_R | we are not advocating fast fatty food. |
Piki | Xu_R: but i need fatty food, need energy to work out and shrink my belly, yah know ;-) |
Piki | j/k |
Piki | i need to get rid of the fatty stuff |
Xu_R | ... |
Piki | ... |
Xu_R | I'm going to head for dinner now, then do kdebase. |
Xu_R | when it's done, it should sync by GMT 0600 to ftp.heanet.ie... |
Xu_R | (assuming they don't screw up over there...) |
Xu_R | so bbl dinner |
samelian | kb9vqf: seems fixed |
kb9vqf | Good |
kb9vqf | And NO TATER! |
samelian | also, not tonqueror, tlipper, tonsole, etc :) |
Piki | kb9vqf: was a joke lol |
*kb9vqf knows | |
kb9vqf | I especially hate tonsole :) |
Piki | i still have mine |
kb9vqf | Here's a thought: what about console with a c (spelled correctly!) |
Piki | still commanding my immune system |
kb9vqf | :-P |
samelian | tconsole? |
kb9vqf | Hmmm....maybe |
kb9vqf | Sounds better anyway |
samelian | a lot of kde apps have "K" for a reason |
samelian | "amaroK", "arK" |
kb9vqf | I know |
kb9vqf | I almost want to leave it that way |
Piki | but i doubt art would be a good name for an archiver |
kb9vqf | Nope |
Piki | makes me think of painting |
kb9vqf | I vote to leave it as-is for existing apps |
Piki | and it might get confused with arts |
kb9vqf | And come up with names that include a T for new apps |
samelian | me neither, at least for now |
samelian | either* |
Piki | defrag almost done, gonna quit, and rejoin when it's done |
samelian | or we can rename apps for better names |
samelian | for example, ark is not very good name for an archiver |
kb9vqf | Right |
kb9vqf | Just no sed 's/k/t/g' |
kb9vqf | :) |
TokRa|asleep | KMail -> TMail |
TokRa|asleep | AFAIR, tmail was an amail app for FIDONET under DOS |

Piki | *sigh* can't get into kde4 as my default user, and don't feel like deleting/recreating him, too many huge files to move around |
Piki | guess i have to, no other users on here, and i shouldn't be online as root anyway |
kb9vqf | samelian: Well, if you check tqt.h you can see that tqfindNext is defined |
samelian | wait |
kb9vqf | So something is preventing it from working |
samelian | in my tqt is just #define tqfindNextRef findNextRef |

Xu_R|Away | back |
Xu_R|Away | time to start on KDEBASE :D |
samelian | Xu_R: if you using gcc 4.5 you will have some unpleasant surprises :) |
Piki | i'll be using gcc 4.5 |
Xu_R | samelian: Probably not, actually |
Piki | i hope you guys can get things fixed ;-) |
Xu_R | because everything has been building gcc 4.5+ well |
samelian | just look: |

Xu_R | what version of gcc? |
samelian | 4.5.2 |
Xu_R | *sigh* |
Xu_R | looks like we're going to be svn debugging for a while.. |
samelian | and the compiler actually is right |
Xu_R | ok... |
Xu_R | that means I'll only be able to have binaries for Mandriva |
Xu_R | since they still use 4.4.3 |
samelian | at least for moment |
Xu_R | also means I'll be running services all night >_< |
samelian | I think tomorrow I will fix gcc 4.5 incompatibilities |
samelian | kb9vqf: tqfindServiceFor |
Xu_R | go for it |
Xu_R | I told Ilya I'd have binaries by tonight |
Xu_R | but I can make a deadline by Friday. |
Piki | currently doing an svn up, then i can get to help testing |
Piki | what's the best way to build without dirtying my svn checkout? create a separate dir and run a command? |
Piki | or cp what i want to build and run a command? |
samelian | Piki: if you use cmake, just use out of source mode |
samelian | mkdir /tmp/build; cd /tmp/build; cmake /path/to/sources |
Piki | samelian: i'll be using cmake, but that won't dirty my svn checkout? as in, i can still "svn up" without problem? |
Piki | ah |
Piki | make separate dir |
samelian | yes |
samelian | cmake scripts are designed to working in this way |
samelian | actually in-source compiling are not recommended |
Piki | when i'm compiling, i normally download a tarball, and if i mess up, i can delete the directory i'm compiling in and untar |
Piki | but yes, for testing and/or developing i'm sure it's a good idea |
Piki | wtf? rpm thinks there isn't anything installed |
Piki | and is only taking a split second to --rebuilddb, which doesn't fix it |
Piki | ugh, my rpm db is completely empty, something got f**ked up bad |
samelian | your defrag :) |
Piki | samelian: i doubt it, all it does is rewrite files according to file/directory size, and nothing else is corrupt or missing |
Piki | and it didn't do any harm to the files on my mp3 player, which has some large songs/videos |
Piki | samelian: and Ark devel has been having RPM dependency troubles for quite some time now, so i'd suspect something like that may be involved |
samelian | check if you have enough space on disk |
Piki | 299GB on my partition, only 15% used |
Piki | so i have plenty of space |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: wow, kdebase is more hellish than I thought |
Xu_R | you said kdepim was also bad - better or worse? XD |
samelian | kdebase is much complicated |
samelian | because a lot system calls |
Xu_R | yea... |
Xu_R | so probably kdepim is better, huh? :P |
samelian | kdepim is complicated because dependencies hell |
Xu_R | oh. fk. |
Xu_R | I'm already experiencing that trying to build for three dists |
Xu_R | xD |
samelian | you have problems with kdebase? |
Xu_R | well |
Xu_R | it's dependency hell here :P |
samelian | hehe |
Xu_R | because I have to find satisfying libs for openSUSE, Fedora, and Mandriva |
Xu_R | oh jeez |
Xu_R | fedora only has kdebase and kdebase-devel |
Xu_R | mandriva has that and lib<stuff here>, and <stuff here> packages |
Xu_R | opensuse has kdebase-<stuff here> packages |
Xu_R | oh lordy, this is hell. xD |
samelian | fortunately, i designed cmake for splitted packages :) |
Xu_R | which is nice, but for rpm packages |
Xu_R | that does nothing |
Xu_R | because we have to split manually via filelists D: |
samelian | ah, correct |
Piki | Xu_R: at least you can define different filelists in the same spec |
samelian | cmake helping only gentoo packagers actually |
Xu_R | yup samelian |
Xu_R | Piki: I know that, I've been doing this for a long time. |
Piki | samelian: btw, do you have a list of which packages you've done cmake for and what options they'll take? i'm going to "attempt" to build, and put qt3.3.8c in a different dir (my system has qt3 in it via Ark's repos, but i can't remove until i get rpm fixed) |
samelian | Piki: I have a sort of package list |
samelian | wait |
samelian | actually, what you mean "packages"? |
samelian | kdelibs, kdebase, etc? |
Piki | samelian: yes, those and any dependencies |
Piki | i need to know what you've completed cmake for, and what options they'll take |
Xu_R | Piki: you have to figure those out yourself... :-\ we don't know what the package names are in Ark. It's trial and error |
samelian | at this time only kdelibs and kdebase are complete |
samelian | the rest of packages are partial ported |
samelian | ark using monolithic or splitted packages |
samelian | ? |
Piki | split, we'll split the kernel, e.g. the kernel itself in one package, then a separate package for each module, ... |
Piki | with normal packages such as KDE, we'll do some minimal splitting there, include -devel packages |
samelian | Piki: http://www.thel.ro/trinity.txt |
Piki | Xu_R: i'm not look for file names, i'm looking for cmake switches |
Piki | i can figure out what to input to those switches myself |
samelian | for switches read main CMakeLists.txt for each package |
Piki | e.g. "./configure --prefix=" is what in cmake? |
samelian | or use ccmake |
samelian | CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX |

Xu_R | Piki: it's on the wiki |
Xu_R | keep searching |

Xu_R | You need to search the Developers' Web |
Piki | or use the search box ;-) just found it |

TokRa | Pardus Linux Corporate 2 Uses KDE 3.5 http://news.softpedia.com/news/Pardus-Linux-Corporate-2-Uses-KDE-3-5-184860.shtml |
Piki | TokRa: i thought they already had KDE3.5? |
*TokRa doesn't know | |
TokRa | when I have learned this info today, I felt surprised |
Piki | i remember using Pardus back in 2008, i'm sure they had 3.5 (i think it was 3.5.9) |
Piki | i thought they wanted to use TDE for their next release, though, someone from Pardus was posting on the devel mailing list awhile back |
TokRa | in 2008 Ubuntu used 3.5 too & there was no need to forking Trinity |
Piki | i don't pay much attention to ubuntu, never worked for me, and one of my cowowrks said today that after using it, he can see why windows is so popular |
TokRa | :) |
Piki | wow, i need to learn how to spell "cowowrks" lol |
Piki | should be "coworkers" |

TokRa | ;-) |
TokRa | btw, where are you from, Piki? |
Piki | the first distro that worked for me was a non-debian distro, Ark (yes they still exist, i'm using their development version) |
Piki | TokRa: Pennsylvania, USA |
Piki | and btw, i don't like kvirc, can't seem to get konversation working |
*TokRa started in 2002 with Mandrake, then switched fast enough to FreeBSD (on the desktop, yes), then accepted Ubuntu in 2007 | |
Piki | i tried ubuntu in mid-2005, dropped me down to a CLI, and i didn't know any commands (i was a windows user) |
Piki | i tried it again in january 2007, still wouldn't work with a GUI |
Piki | i tried Ark in February 2007, first one to work after trying a bunch of others in January |
Piki | opensuse, fedora, bunch of others, can't remember all that i tried |
Piki | debian scared me at first with it's installer, looked kinda large and clunky |
Piki | when i eventually got it installed (tried it several times since), it seemed quite stable on the core system, but the GUI and sound didn't quite work |
Piki | even Squeeze and Lenny didn't like me |
Piki | but ubuntu and fedora have been the biggest struggles for any of the systems i've tried it on |
TokRa | Linux is very user friendly. Still, it chooses its friends carefully :) |
Piki | Ark works on pretty much any system i put it on |
Piki | TokRa: one thing i tell people is that they often won't like their first distro, they will normally need to try a bunch before they find one they like |
Piki | i also point out live cds and vms |
Piki | so they don't feel scared to try |
Piki | TokRa: i don't think Ubuntu is choosing friends very well, i've tried it with quite a few systems from quite a few manufacturers, and even a few custom machines, and it didn't like any of them |
Piki | whereas i'm able to get Ark with 100% free software to work on quite a few of them, perhaps minus proprietary wireless or 3d acceleration |

cpatrick08 | i was wondering what the status of the quickbuild server was |
TokRa | use http://mirror.trinity.lv instead of http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity |
cpatrick08 | ok thanks |
Xu_R | dead tired now - I'm heading to bed. currently ftp.heanet.ie shows all the work i've done |

Xu_R | kb9vqf: https://spreadsheets.google.com/viewform?formkey=dEk2UzhBQXpuWmpxT3pRVkx2ZUFuZXc6MQ |
Xu_R | It's basically the checklist I made in a google docs format |
Xu_R | (I still have to add all the stuff, but still tired) |
*Xu_R zzzZZZZZZzzzs again | |
kb9vqf | Interesting |
kb9vqf | Mind if I take the general idea and make a proper php-based survey system out of it? |
kb9vqf | I'd like to integrate it with this idea: |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: sure. mind you, each of the vendors change to a different page for packager-based questions |
kb9vqf | http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/wiki/bin/view/Developers/RegistrationDialogSpec |
*kb9vqf may not do much with it soon | |
Xu_R | sure, go for it |
kb9vqf | But I don't want to have to pull data from some third-party source :) |
kb9vqf | In the future that is |
Xu_R | but for now, i'm migrating stuff from TestsuiteAndChecklist... and then we can play with it a bit |
kb9vqf | Sure |
kb9vqf | Multiple data sources just makes analysis difficult, that's all |
Xu_R | very true. |
Xu_R | I just like how Google docs is like awesome :P |
kb9vqf | Heh |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | But I've learned not to trust third party free services ;-) |
kb9vqf | They may not always be around |
Xu_R | true. |
kb9vqf | Or be the best for your needs, say, 10 years in the future |
Xu_R | yup |
kb9vqf | At least if the data is in a truly open format it can be retrieved at any future date :) |
Xu_R | hehe |
*kb9vqf has had some hard lessons that way... | |
kb9vqf | Micro$oft |
Xu_R | of course microsoft. |
kb9vqf | Or should I say Micro$$$$$everymonth$$$$oft |
kb9vqf | :-P |
Xu_R | LOL |
Xu_R | yes, that's acceptable too XD |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: hm... what if I made a simple dialog with kommander that popped up and displayed the webpage that tells you congrats, etc, want to share your system statistics |
Xu_R | and then yes/no, use smolt (maybe? wanna run a smolt server kb9vqf? XD), and then the checklist (accept/decline) also |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: Well, as long as it can POST the system details go for it! |
kb9vqf | GET/POST |
kb9vqf | I don't really care |
kb9vqf | Just some way of autofilling certain fields |
Xu_R | ah, ok |
kb9vqf | smolt? |
kb9vqf | Oh, nevermind |
kb9vqf | We'll collect our own data I think |
kb9vqf | The stuff relevant to desktop environments |
kb9vqf | Not the kernel :) |
Xu_R | :P |
*kb9vqf has to run | |

MutantTurkey | kb9vqf:great! |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: about time. XD |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: I have a question. For kdebase, what packages do your recommend be split out into subpackages and the rest lumped in kdebase? |
Xu_R | i've got kdm, nsplugins, kate, and a few others... |
Piki | is there a CLI cd/dvd burning app that can burn straight data to a disc without making it an ISO? i've never done cd burning from a CLI before, and k3b doesn't seem to see my dvd burner (but i can mount data discs and play cdda) |
Xu_R | Piki: either use cdrecord or dvdrecord |
Xu_R | or you'll have to use dd |
MutantTurkey | Piki: i don't know if you know brasero but for a gnome app it is quite good. |
Piki | Xu_R: cdrecord doesn't seem to have an option to burn straight data, it's --help only mentions ISOs |
Xu_R | ah... you want to burn straight data that's not image format... |
Xu_R | well... I can't really help you there. I'm sure you can try making an image with dd, but be careful when you do, it can wipe your drive in an instant. |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: brasero is good. |
Piki | MutantTurkey: not a GNOME user, not included in my distro (managed to break my RPM install anyway), and not about to compile huge stuff (the reason i want to burn my stuff to disc is to reinstall to fix RPM) |
Piki | Xu_R: yeah, i know how to use dd, but doesn't that only allow me to create images for hard disk/flash media/floppy/etc, rather than optical images? |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: Piki is like your extremist kde3 person that will do anything to have all his software FOSS :P (ok, maybe not, but you get my idea) |
Xu_R | Piki: /dev/cdrom? |
Piki | i can use mkisofs anyway |
MutantTurkey | :P |
Piki | Xu_R: extremist F\OSS (never had proprietary stuff work). i use kde3 only because i don't like gnome and haven't had good chance to try anything else |
Piki | oh, just thought of this: i only want my /home directory, and i currently have everything (except swap, of course) on one partition, if i had /home separate (like i should, but don't because i'm running alpha-quality software), dd would probably work |
Piki | oie... i'm really short on options, aren't i? |
Piki | now that i'm checking through my stuff, it appears my dvd drive isn't visible at all to kde4 :-( |
Piki | i guess mkisofs it is, then pass the resulting iso off to cdrecord :-( seems to cause some serious lag though |

*Piki has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Piki | hi |
*Piki has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: did you see HHa's libreoffice problem? |
Xu_R | I'm thinking that Trinity isn't looking everywhere... |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: Nope |
*kb9vqf has been busy with other things | |
Piki | Xu_R: i think the menus package may need to install the menus into TDE's menu dir |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: okees |
Xu_R | Piki: NO! We want to keep compat with upstream. |
Piki | Xu_R: huh? |
Xu_R | we have to find the global apps dir and make sure TDE looks there... |
kb9vqf | Xu_R is coorect |
kb9vqf | *correct |
Piki | global apps dir? |
Piki | never heard of it |
kb9vqf | /usr/share/apps IIRC |
kb9vqf | /usr/share/applications/ |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: yup |
Piki | so... what's it used for? |
Xu_R | problem, Trinity is probably looking in /opt/trinity/share/applications and not in /usr/share/applications... |
Xu_R | Piki: go look there and you'll find your whole kmenu there. |
Piki | i always thought each DE had it's own menu dir... |
Xu_R | Piki: that would be illogical. |
Piki | why? keep things from getting mixed up... |
Xu_R | ... |
Xu_R | then how would DEs like LXDE and XFCE find their apps? |
Piki | by storing them in their own dirs |
Piki | not like every single DE will use the same exact format |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: Each desktop does have its own directory |
kb9vqf | There is a set of control files that lists all the directories that contain the files |
kb9vqf | XDG stuff |
kb9vqf | I don't remember where they are ATM |
kb9vqf | Each desktop maintains its own list of directories |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: usually /usr/share/kde4, /usr/share/gnome-menus, /usr/share/lxde |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: then again... |
kb9vqf | /usr/share/applications is ONLY "global" apps |
Xu_R | there's also the "NoShowIn=KDE,GNOME" etc |
kb9vqf | Right, but that's for global apps again :) |
kb9vqf | Trust me, there's a list somewhere |
kb9vqf | I've seen it |
kb9vqf | A list of XDG menu shortcut directories |
kb9vqf | It's Trinity specific |
kb9vqf | It might live under /etc |
Piki | even with a free desktop standard, each DE/WM generally stores config files and such using it's own format, so it'd be hard to enforce such a standard on menu entries. i do understand why people would want a free desktop standard, but certain things should be left alone to each project's preference |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: I don't think so. GNOME and KDE practically moved their stuff into /usr/share/applications |
Xu_R | nowadays, KDE4 is in /usr/share/applications/kde4 |
Xu_R | and GNOME is in /usr/share/applications (they just throw them randomly there) |
Xu_R | and they all use the gobal "NoShowIn" |
Xu_R | (I'm looking at it right now) |
kb9vqf | That's up to them |
kb9vqf | If someone wants to move the Trinity desktop files into /usr/share/applications/trinity they can |
kb9vqf | I don't have time :) |
Xu_R | The thing I want to know is, how can we get Trinity to start looking there? |
Piki | symlink to trinity's dir? |
kb9vqf | No |
kb9vqf | NO |
kb9vqf | YUCK |
kb9vqf | :-P |
Piki | ? |
Xu_R | no. |
kb9vqf | Find the list of XDG application directories |
kb9vqf | And add /usr/share/applications/trinity to it |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: no, How can we get TRINITY to start looking in /usr/share/applications? |
kb9vqf | I know |
kb9vqf | That's what I'm talking about |
kb9vqf | Hang on |
Xu_R | ok. |
kb9vqf | It seems I have to find the file myself before people will believe me :) |
*Piki knows nothing of this DE devel stuff, needs explanations | |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: hehe |
MutantTurkey | well arch binaries are up from kaitocracy |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: nice |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: yeah david got them up :) |
Xu_R | :D |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: It's actually a relatively complex system involving many configuration files :( |
kb9vqf | Some are in /etc/xdg/menus/ |
Xu_R | OH, /etc/xdg/menus. ew. |
kb9vqf | Which then points to stuff in /opt/kde3/share/desktop-directories |
kb9vqf | And many other places |
kb9vqf | Like I said I've seen the files with my own two eyes |
kb9vqf | Trinity may not be interacting with XDG very well right now |
kb9vqf | Not sure |
MutantTurkey | I am going to send a quick email to the person who is hosting trinity binaries from the trinity team? is that cool? |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: On my system global (uncategorized) apps show up in "Lost + Found" |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey ? |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: same everywhere |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: we have trinity binaries for arch. I was thinking about sending her a email. |
kb9vqf | Oh, we do? |
MutantTurkey | just to say thanks for hosting them for right now |
kb9vqf | I thought those were temp files ATM |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: yeah. david made rapid progress. |
MutantTurkey | yeah just for right now. |
kb9vqf | If the're finished we should transfer them to the Trinity project servers |
MutantTurkey | right. |
kb9vqf | i.e. the global mirror system |
MutantTurkey | Okay I'll email david that. |
kb9vqf | OK :) |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: yet again, /etc/xdg/menu applies to the global apps dir, where gnome and kde both use it now. |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: Right..... |
Xu_R | I think that just defines the categories. |
MutantTurkey | I'll still email, just saying thanks and that we shouldn't bother her to much longer. |
kb9vqf | OK |
MutantTurkey | SO EXCITED TO ACTUALLY TRY TRINITY :D :D :D |
kb9vqf | Fine with me : |
*Xu_R looks a bit more | |
*kb9vqf has had a long day and does NOT feel like troubleshooting the $%#! menu system right now | |
Xu_R | yup, just with categories and the structure of menus |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: fine by me. I'll throw it into the bugzilla |
kb9vqf | OK, thanks |
kb9vqf | Be detailed in what the problem is and how to reproduce it |
kb9vqf | The menu system is just one of those things that I look at as magically working :) |
Xu_R | we *assume* is magically working |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | I don't know much about its (way too complex) innards |
kb9vqf | XDG is a beast |
*calvin has joined #trinity-desktop | |
calvin | holy crap this is nice. |
calvin | I am very impressed |
Piki | calvin: i try my best ;-) j/k kb9vqf is the guy to thank, i'm just here to test and package (whenever i eventually get my machine setup) |
calvin | Like i thought i would enjoy trinty, but this is frankly fucking awesome. |
calvin | a few small problems (probably davids fault anyway) but thats how it is. |
Piki | talk to david, or (better) post to the trinity-users mailing list, see if it can be resolved in the packages. if not, file a bug report |
calvin | Piki: I think it is Davids problem, he has only packaged the very minimal amout of stuff to get trinity going |
calvin | not anything extra. |
calvin | one question, my artsd is eating 10% of my memory |
calvin | i mean CPU |
calvin | is that normal? |
Piki | don't think so... you might see it jump up slightly when you've got sound going through artsd, but it should be idle, at least for the most part |
calvin | what is artsd? |
calvin | hmm there might be a sound locking problem, I have mocp using alsa right now. on rebooot it should be fine. |
calvin | I'll reboot now |
Piki | it's the sound system KDE3/TDE uses to connect to ALSA and (i think) OSS, i forget what it stands for |
*MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | o/ |
Piki | ah/ |
MutantTurkey | well this is quite a friendly experience. |
Piki | ? |
MutantTurkey | definitely feels alot more together than gnome |
MutantTurkey | (trying trinity on arch) |
Piki | ah |
Piki | gnome doesn't offer as many config options as i'd like and it feels... slowish |
Piki | though i talked to someone recently who tried GNOME and KDE4 on Ubuntu. he didn't like Ubuntu and switched back to Windows, but he said between the two DE's, he prefers gnome |
MutantTurkey | gnome actually feels about the same speed to kde3 |
MutantTurkey | kde4 is unbearable. |
MutantTurkey | but gnome has really cleaned up their act. |
Piki | kde3 definitely feels more responsive than gnome on the machines i've used them on |
MutantTurkey | hmmm nothing shows up in my control panel :[ |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: D: |
MutantTurkey | yeah its odd |
Xu_R | probably packaging error |
MutantTurkey | i don't like kvirc to much either |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: certainly it is. |
Piki | but if KDE3/TDE didn't exist and it was just KDE4 or GNOME, i'd definitely choose GNOME |
MutantTurkey | kvirc just feels like bloaty to me, to many options D: |
Xu_R | kvirc IS bloated. |
MutantTurkey | Pidgin has always been my favorite |
Piki | konversation is great |
Xu_R | pidgin ftw |
Piki | for just irc |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: word |
Piki | for me, i like both Pidgin and Kopete, but if i could get file transfers working and run a pure Qt environment, it'd be kopete |
Piki | i actually had the kde4 windows version of kopete running at some point |
MutantTurkey | yeah |
Piki | kinda nice to have some amount of familiarity and comfort when using wincrap |
MutantTurkey | yeah |
*Piki doesn't mind testing for a wincrap port of TDE whenever the TDE devs have a chance to start work on it | |
*MutantTurkey has left #trinity-desktop | |
*MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Piki | MutantTurkey: mutating your irc client to Pidgin? |
MutantTurkey | :p yeah |
MutantTurkey | I have to switch back to xfce anyways for now. |
*MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | so does trinity use KHTML from the 3.5 branch? |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: sadly |
Xu_R | It will ONLY be able to use WebKit after we port to Qt4 |
MutantTurkey | okay good stuff |
MutantTurkey | webkit is awesome :) |
Xu_R | yes. it is. |
MutantTurkey | wrote my own webkit browser |
MutantTurkey | definitely will port it to qt |
Piki | MutantTurkey: i'm game for learning to program with qt/c++, if you're game for teaching :-P |
Piki | actually, i intend to learn either way, just don't have much time |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: oooh :O |
Piki | and struggling to make a .iso of my /home small enough for dvd backup (working with a b0rked system with an empty rpmdb and a bunch of other stuff missing from /var) |
MutantTurkey | I don't know C++ :P |
MutantTurkey | i know just C |
Xu_R | ewww, C. |
Xu_R | C++ ftw |
Xu_R | hehe |
Piki | MutantTurkey: so... there's a C-compatible GUI toolkit? |
Piki | Xu_R: you do realize C is the father of C++, right? lol |
MutantTurkey | C is way better than C++ imho |
MutantTurkey | Piki: gtk is C based. |
MutantTurkey | duh |
Piki | MutantTurkey: uh, i was under the impression that GTK was C++ |
Xu_R | GTK is C |
Xu_R | Qt is C++ |
Xu_R | Piki: yea, I know |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: Only reason I like C++ is cause I'm learning it right now, lol (ever notice Xu_R|School? XD) |
Piki | so... it appears that i've got a lot of unreliable sources who have been using linux a lot longer than me |
Piki | which means that a lot of people need to get their facts straight |
*Piki will choose not to believe anyone from now on until he can do some thorough research himself | |
MutantTurkey | Piki: it has a c++ port but is primarily C |
Piki | MutantTurkey: like i said, i'll choose not to believe anything until i can do my own research |
Piki | too many people saying too many different things |
MutantTurkey | lol |
MutantTurkey | gtkmm is the C++ port of gtk. gtk is primarily written in C, there is also gtk for C#, python, ruby, etc |
Xu_R | gtk for c# is vala, right? |
Xu_R | or rather, c# like |
Piki | pffft, someone recommended dropbox to me just 2 minutes after me saying that i try to avoid GTK stuff, and he said it doesn't use any GNOME stuff, but it requires nautilus... |
Piki | no gnome here |
MutantTurkey | lol |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: C# is mono, i think it is just called gtk-mono or something |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: ah, I see |

Piki | plus i tend to multitask when i'm in cyberspace ;-) |
david | I've got 3 kids -- I always multitask! |
MutantTurkey | hey david |
MutantTurkey | D: kids. |
MutantTurkey | david: I saw your post to trinity devel |
Piki | oh dog... i hope i never have kids 'O.O though knowing me, i'll probably let my g/f talk me into it whenever we get married |
MutantTurkey | Piki: getting married? nice |
david | Well at my age, if you don't have kids, you really have to wonder ... |
Piki | MutantTurkey: not yet, no money, could never afford it, even without all the fanciful stuff people tend to do these days |
Piki | well, could probably afford it eventually |
MutantTurkey | david: nice work with the packages. kaitocracy is really great. |
Piki | but not for a very long time |
MutantTurkey | Piki: yeah. I need to get through school first :P |
MutantTurkey | where is samelian when we need him? |
david | Kids $? Peanut butter and jelly is -- cheap :) |

MutantTurkey | yeah where is that fellow :/ |
Xu_R | prob sleeping |
MutantTurkey | david: so whats holding you up? could you pastebin the problem? |
david | Thanks for the invite -- that's OK, I'm really just poking around cmake and tde trying to figure it out. |
Xu_R | it's 6 am over there |

Xu_R | MutantTurkey: same - but same's +2 |
Piki | it is 11:27PM eastern daylight time |

MutantTurkey | gotta get some sleep for class |
david | No problem - I'm just sitting with the kids watching Prince of Persia |

MutantTurkey | didn't samelian create a wiki page for CMake? |
MutantTurkey | relevent link:http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/wiki/bin/view/Developers/CMakeConversionProcess |
*Xu_R facepalms Piki | |
Piki | MutantTurkey: yes, i posted it to david's thread on the mailing list |
MutantTurkey | ah good good |
Xu_R | do not do that crap in the channel, especially when we're logging it. |
Piki | Xu_R: ? |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: whhat why not? no messing around means no fun. |
david | Guys, what I'll do is poke around a bit more with the cmake files and see if I can come up with an intelligent set of questions for samlian when he is back on the list. I'll try and come up with a generic CMakeList.txt and dir structure that you can "plug your app in here" so I can understand all this stuff :) |
Xu_R | Piki: http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/irc/logs.html |
MutantTurkey | david: I've got alot of issues going on with arch + trinity, i assume its just incomplete packaging though |
Piki | MutantTurkey: some of us need to learn to to lighten up and have fun :-) |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: all caps and that long... and yo mama? really? -_- |
MutantTurkey | LOL |
david | Make sure you have the right set of PKGBUILDS (the traditional one -- NOT the build in tree ones) |
Xu_R | It's already boring in school, you know... XD |
Piki | Xu_R: ever hear of "fun"? |
MutantTurkey | school is killer man. |
david | You have the wrong degree - Aero was fascinating... |
MutantTurkey | not looking foreward to class tomorrow |
Piki | and besides, all that joking around in #arklinux will get logged once i fix AL-Bot |
MutantTurkey | I keep switching degrees :P I am so indecisive. |
MutantTurkey | I am liberal studies for the moment. |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: wow. You're more indecisive than me XD |
MutantTurkey | computer science revolves around to much god damned Java and shit. nothing about real programming. |
MutantTurkey | I am to hardcore unix to do a CS degree, and they don't even have vim D: how am i supposed to work without vim? |
Xu_R | Piki: pfft. there's always a limit to that, you know. btw, i'm not ever going back onto #arklinux, not worth it and especially since arklinux is not reviving. |
david | I enjoyed the physics and theory - but there is only one buyer of aero in the country -- that is the govt or its Mil Ind Complex |
MutantTurkey | I was thinking digital audio production? |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: I know right? too much Java -_- |
MutantTurkey | ah well. I'm only 16 so i have alot of time :P |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: DAMNIT. I'm 15 >: |
david | I'm 44 -- I don't :) |
MutantTurkey | :P yarly? |
Xu_R | damn you one year older person named MutantTurkey >: |
Xu_R | lol |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: 15 and in college? nice. |
Piki | Xu_R: yes, and i would never go outside the limit... and Ark isn't dead, there IS development going on, we just need to get some actual people around to help test and speed things up a bit |
MutantTurkey | I should have started last year. I am only on my second semster now. |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: what? 15? no, i'm in HS. But I'll be taking college institute in HS |
MutantTurkey | Piki: just like trinity. |
Xu_R | (next year, at least) |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: oh haha I am full time at college. |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: smart person. |
MutantTurkey | our community college is quite nice. |
Piki | and you just need to learn to stay calm and not overreact and to say what you mean |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: not really. |
david | At 15, I was just starting my degree in beer ;) |
Xu_R | Piki: COUGH UNITY COUGH |
Xu_R | LOL david |
MutantTurkey | david: that sums up my weekend. |
MutantTurkey | gotta get this damned website finished >.> |
david | Ah -- you guys are making me miss the good ole days... |
MutantTurkey | i need to wait up for samelian to ask him doctpye questions. |
Xu_R | pfft. MutantTurkey: you, sir, are lucky, how the hell did you get into college at 16? |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: are you in america? |
MutantTurkey | yes. |
MutantTurkey | right pittsburgh? |
MutantTurkey | or is that DC |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: No, DC |
Piki | Xu_R: what about them? i gave them like 50 chances to stop their attacks, and i never otherwise go over 2 chances |
MutantTurkey | i am so confused now! D: |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: I'm in DC, Piki is in Pittsburgh |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: okay, talk to your HS guidence counselor about "Dual Enrollment" |
Xu_R | Piki: as I said, there are different PoVs here |
MutantTurkey | basically you take college classes while being in high schol |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: OH, that's what i'm doing next year. We call it college institute. |
Piki | and i have a very low tolerance for stupid bullcrap |
MutantTurkey | I am technically in high school, but i am taking all classes at collge |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: yeah exactly. |
Xu_R | wow. |
MutantTurkey | but i don't even go to the HS at all. |
Piki | Xu_R: define PoVs |
Xu_R | luckyyy lol |
MutantTurkey | word. |
MutantTurkey | it's nice in some ways |
MutantTurkey | lost alot of friends ._. |
Xu_R | -_- |
MutantTurkey | people don't seem to miss you when you go away. |
MutantTurkey | It's cool. All i do at school is jam anyway |
Xu_R | Piki: 1. JMiahMan is overreacting. 2. You are overreacting. 3. Both of you are passionate in your views but you let it get to your heads. |
MutantTurkey | 4. I like turtles |
Xu_R | Piki: mdawkins and JMiahMan were willing to let Trinity in anyway. |
MutantTurkey | who is JMianMan? |
Piki | Xu_R: i tried to stay calm, jman didn't even appear to do so, so... |
Xu_R | (Now, I'm stuck doing it, tyvm) |
Piki | and they seemed very opposed to TDE when i suggested it |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: long story, don't get involved with it, it got ugly. |
Piki | hence why i'm not doing it for them |
Piki | and i'm stuck doing it for Ark |
Piki | now i'm off to bed |
MutantTurkey | :P |
MutantTurkey | cya man |
Xu_R | Piki: I am not going to go over this convo again. |
Xu_R | Ok, night |
david | Adios - time to get the kids in bed :) |
Xu_R | lol |
Piki | not worth arguing with someone who is one-sided in not seeing the stupid bullshit |
MutantTurkey | david: alright see ya. try and hop on the IRC. its much better than boring mailing list :p |
Piki | Xu_R: then don't,i know what happened, you apparently don't |
MutantTurkey | samelian will be around later i am sure. |
david | Ok yeh! |
MutantTurkey | :) |
Xu_R | good lord |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: I am out too. cya man |
Xu_R | this is why we think Piki has paranoia |
Xu_R | ok, cya |
MutantTurkey | probably |
Xu_R | lol |

mutantturkey | kb9vqf: definitely almost ready. |
kb9vqf | Good :) |
mutantturkey | kb9vqf: the only problem now seems to be the paypal form :/ any ideas? you might be using an extremely old version of the paypay form, do you think you could go onto the paypal website and generate a new one and send me the source? |
kb9vqf | mutantturkey: What's wrong with it? |
kb9vqf | Can you just ignore that error? |
kb9vqf | I can regenerate it from this end during system integration |
mutantturkey | well |
mutantturkey | other than that it is perfect! |
mutantturkey | i think |
mutantturkey | I have to spell check it too |
kb9vqf | Take your time :) |
mutantturkey | I have no idea how to go about spell checking it :p |

MutantTurkey | o/ |
ShadowedWarrior | kb9vqf: I opened up build.lincomlinux.org, you can find the current Trinity stuff there in the project Trinity:3.5.12 - as you can see, kdebase is a pain in the @$$ |
ShadowedWarrior | (packaging rpms, of course) |
ShadowedWarrior | oh hey MutantTurkey ^^ |
MutantTurkey | sup dude |
ShadowedWarrior | blah... school is immensely boring atm |
MutantTurkey | D: |
MutantTurkey | yeah i skipped math today so i'm just chilling |
ShadowedWarrior | hey, tis true ;| |
MutantTurkey | website is finished. :) |
ShadowedWarrior | *:| |
MutantTurkey | need something to do. |
MutantTurkey | maybe start cmake work :p |
ShadowedWarrior | MutantTurkey: :D woot! |
ShadowedWarrior | That would be nice |
MutantTurkey | yes |
ShadowedWarrior | although you'll have to start nudging samelian about that |
MutantTurkey | just want to get these packages for arch up and thats it. |
ShadowedWarrior | :D |
ShadowedWarrior | we had a 2 hour delay today because there was so much ice on the road... and I was thinking spring was finally here... |
MutantTurkey | yerah same |
MutantTurkey | well my high school did |
MutantTurkey | i didn't |
TokRa | [Looking at AppleSause] BTW, will there be a TDE version for MacOS? |
AppleSause | TokRa: why would there be? |
AppleSause | I don't understand how that would work. |
TokRa | why not? |
AppleSause | because mac has their desktop. |
AppleSause | how would you get rid of it and only run trinity? |
AppleSause | is that possible? |
TokRa | Ubuntu also does but... |
TokRa | http://techbase.kde.org/index.php?title=Projects/KDE_on_Mac_OS_X/KDE_3 |
MutantTurkey | to do that, we need an MacOS developer/tester/packager |
MutantTurkey | and we need and actual userbase. |
MutantTurkey | if nobody uses it, no point |
TokRa | "KDE 3.5.10 is also in MacPorts" |
TokRa | interesting... |
MutantTurkey | odd |
*Piki has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Piki | hi |
MutantTurkey | heyas |
Piki | on debian with TDE 3.5.12, i've got kopete setup with AIM, GTalk (Jabber/XMPP), and Freenode IRC, but it seems unable to connect via Jabber/XMPP through their chat server (which reportedly was setup for XMPP). first FB reported an unsupported protocol version, then it refused my connection, now i have no error to go by, and still no connection |
MutantTurkey | odd |
*strowi has joined #trinity-desktop | |

kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Go anead and send the website to my Email |
kb9vqf | *ahead |
*ShadowedWarrior has joined #trinity-desktop | |
ShadowedWarrior | Sorry for the abrupt departure... |
ShadowedWarrior | (bell rang and I paniced XD) |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: okay let me tar it up. |
*Piki has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: hey tim, can we get an SVN directory for our Archlinux PKGBUILDs? |
kb9vqf | For the packaging information you mean? |
MutantTurkey | yes |
kb9vqf | I can't do that on the official KDE servers |
kb9vqf | BUT |
MutantTurkey | archlinux packaging information is held in small text files at automates the processes |
kb9vqf | I can set up SVN here |
MutantTurkey | you don't have write acess? |
Xu_R|School | MutantTurkey: can I recommend gitorious.org? |
MutantTurkey | I was talking withing the tree |
kb9vqf | The KDE SVN tree is distro agnostic |
MutantTurkey | doesn't believe in god? |
Xu_R|School | very good service - git works too, you know :P |
kb9vqf | Doesn't believe in any particular distribution |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R|School: git hub |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: we can't get a small directory |
Xu_R|School | MutantTurkey: ew, gitorious better. |
MutantTurkey | I understand the reason. |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R|School: whatever. |
Xu_R|School | MutantTurkey: lol |
MutantTurkey | but I think we need to sort of, unite our efforts. |
kb9vqf | Whoa, too many conversations here!! |
kb9vqf | :-P |
Xu_R|School | hehehe |
*Xu_R|School watches chaos ensure | |
*kb9vqf panics | |
kb9vqf | :) |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: i think it would be good to have on the KDE tree because 1) it takes up like >100kb space. 2) it unites our efforts 3) then me and the arch team can be on the same page |
MutantTurkey | and you should hang out in #archlinux, like 800 people. that is crazy. |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: I know the reasons (and I agree) but I don't own the server |
kb9vqf | So I don't get to dictate what happens |
kb9vqf | :( |
MutantTurkey | right. |
MutantTurkey | :( who owns it and you can only push? |
kb9vqf | That's why I like keeping services here BTW |
kb9vqf | KDE e.V. |
MutantTurkey | ah. |
strowi | can anyone tell me the state of kdm? here it keeps crashing.. |
MutantTurkey | okay well you have your own svn tree we can work on then? |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: I'll put one up ASAP |
MutantTurkey | great. |
MutantTurkey | and for f**ks sake, i keep top posting with gmail :/ |
kb9vqf | strowi: SVN or 3.5.12? |
strowi | kb9vqf: currently svn |
kb9vqf | Can you get a backtrace? |
Xu_R|School | MutantTurkey: you use ff? |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R|School: i use my own browser called sb |
MutantTurkey | http://github.com/mutantturkey/sb/ |
Xu_R|School | MutantTurkey: nice! But if you use ff, you can download a greasemonkey script that auto-bottom-posts in gmail |
MutantTurkey | no. ff is bloat. |
MutantTurkey | :P |
strowi | kb9vqf: let me try with gdb.. |
MutantTurkey | chrome has gotten really bloaty |
kb9vqf | strowi: OK that would help |
Xu_R|School | MutantTurkey: agreed - ff too much memory, chrome too many processes |
MutantTurkey | yes. |
MutantTurkey | mine is simple and fast |
MutantTurkey | it uses webkit |
Xu_R|School | webkit makes things awesome. |
MutantTurkey | and it doesn't split processes, instead it has threads (using webkit) so when you close a tab the webkit thread closes down and you get your memory back! |
MutantTurkey | (other than cache) |
MutantTurkey | which you can turn off |
Xu_R|School | pfft, cache isn't that bad |
MutantTurkey | not at all |
strowi | kb9vqf: do i need to compile kdm with some debug-option? gdb says "no stack" |
kb9vqf | Hmm. Not good |
kb9vqf | No you don't |
kb9vqf | That means something got seriously corrupted |
strowi | kb9vqf: its "gdb kdm" - "run" - "bt" right? |
kb9vqf | kdm may fork |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: let me know when you get that svn thing up. also i sent the website |
kb9vqf | Do this: |
kb9vqf | strowi: gdb --arg kdm -nodaemon |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Not yet |
kb9vqf | I have a packed day ahead |
kb9vqf | We'll see if I can get to it tonight |
kb9vqf | s/day/afternoon/g |
MutantTurkey | okay it's cool. I'm not doing anything. |
*Borg^Queen has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | I've got a hectic day also |
Xu_R|School | don't we just love weekdays? -___-* |
MutantTurkey | -____- |
Xu_R|School | -_________- |
kb9vqf | :-P |
Xu_R|School | we have interesting technical and lifestyle convos here. |
strowi | kb9vqf: here is the gdb-output http://paste.pocoo.org/show/342927/ |
strowi | is that really an kdm error or more glibc? |
kb9vqf | strowi: That's not very useful |
kb9vqf | I'm suspecting glibc |
kb9vqf | Have you done a complete recompilation from SVN lately? |
kb9vqf | i.e. recompile/reinstall tqtinterface, then recompile/reinstall arts, rcomp/rinstall kdelibs, then finally rcomp/rinstall kdebase? |
strowi | kb9vqf: i am using gentoo, and just modded the ebuilds from serghei and installed today with r1221326 |
kb9vqf | strowi: i386 or x64? |
strowi | x64 |
kb9vqf | strowi: This might be similar: http://trinity-devel.pearsoncomputing.net/?0::1114 |
kb9vqf | Not sure if it will help you or not |
kb9vqf | For what it's worth I have not experienced the kdesktop or kdm crash on my x64 machines |
kb9vqf | But I use Ubuntu and Debian |
strowi | kb9vqf: will check it out, didn't even know glibc-2.13 existed.. |
kb9vqf | Sorry I can't be of much more help |
strowi | kb9vqf: np, thx ! |
kb9vqf | np |
Xu_R|School | bell's about to ring, end of school day :D bbiab |
MutantTurkey | :) |
Xu_R | back |
Xu_R | I think the bus drive drove a bit too fast for icy roads... >_>" |
MutantTurkey | hahaha |
MutantTurkey | our roads are perfectly fine |
Xu_R | pfft, we had freezing rain last night. it froze over like all our roads |
Piki | MutantTurkey: i was on a bus last night, we got stuck on a hill, the lights inside the bus kept flickering while the driver tried to pull over, we needed help from a salt truck driver to finish getting up |
Piki | was stuck for over 30 mins |
MutantTurkey | D: |

kb9vqf | samelian: Can you take a look at fixing the bugs mentioned here? http://trinity-users.pearsoncomputing.net/?0::869 |
kb9vqf | If this is not dealt with I am concerned he can cause a lot of damage to the project |
kb9vqf | :-/ |
kb9vqf | Bug 438 is the worst |
tbottu | Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=438 maj, P5, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, Kmail fails to poll mailbox |
kb9vqf | Followed by Bug 428 |
tbottu | Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=428 enh, P5, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, Low disk space warning won't go away as expected |
samelian | kb9vqf: I planning to rewrite kmail kioslaves as well, because are really old and buggy |
kb9vqf | OK |
kb9vqf | Can you take a look at Bug 428 then in the meantime? |
tbottu | Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=428 enh, P5, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, Low disk space warning won't go away as expected |
samelian | I will try to reproduce it |
kb9vqf | Normally I'd try to fix it, but I'm booked solid for the next few weeks |
kb9vqf | Thanks :) |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: hmmm i think it was actually something with bzip acting funny. |
kb9vqf | Hope so :) |
kb9vqf | Try to resend it I guess |
kb9vqf | Maybe use gzip? |
MutantTurkey | yeah odd. |
MutantTurkey | that is weird |
MutantTurkey | oh actually it was neither. i think it was geany crashing that corrupted it. |
MutantTurkey | yeah it looks like geanys bufferes were dumped |
kb9vqf | geany? |
MutantTurkey | its a gtk ide |
kb9vqf | Ohhh |
kb9vqf | OK |
kb9vqf | Glad to know it wasn't malicious :) |
MutantTurkey | I am die hard vim user. but I prefer a graphical editor for programming. |
MutantTurkey | alot of cut and pasting moving around, undoin, multiple tabs and such |
*kb9vqf uses Kate extensively | |
MutantTurkey | as far as geany goes though it is pretty light |
kb9vqf | Well, when you've uncorrupted everything send it on over again.... |
kb9vqf | :) |
MutantTurkey | the reason it is so large, is because it is every singe file that was open, dumped into it and alot of geany stuf along with it |
samelian | kb9vqf: I wonder if config entry can even saved if there is not more room on disk |
kb9vqf | samelian: Interesting |
kb9vqf | You may be correct there |
kb9vqf | BUT |
kb9vqf | I think he'd have many other problems if he had 0 bytes free ;-) |
*kb9vqf is speaking from experience | |
samelian | sure |
samelian | however, the real message is "Do not ask again" |
samelian | is not "Never display this warning again" |
samelian | in this case, the normal behaviour is to show the dialog again, at relogin |
samelian | otherwise you run out of space without any notification :) |
samelian | I think that better fix can be a threshold set by user |
samelian | a percent threshold is pretty stupid these days |
samelian | 4% can be easily 5G, enough for any usual task |
kb9vqf | Yes, you are correct |
kb9vqf | Can you modify it to, say, 500MB free? |
kb9vqf | As a default that is |
samelian | sure, why not |
kb9vqf | Thanks :) |
samelian | one more ideea, we need to rethink a little trinity notification system |
samelian | at this moment is sux |
MutantTurkey | while everything else is intact, it seems that about.php has been over written entirely :| |
samelian | we can borrow the notification system used by kopete |

samelian | kb9vqf: so, what you think about metric vs binary representation for disk sizes? |
samelian | 1G = 10^9 bytes vs 1G = 2^30 bytes |
kb9vqf | 2^30 |
kb9vqf | It's standard |
samelian | actually, is not |
samelian | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gigabyte |
samelian | seems that is not very clear |
kb9vqf | Hmm |
kb9vqf | OK |
kb9vqf | Let's use 10^9 |
kb9vqf | Metric |
samelian | in this case is not very important, because 500M threshold is not fixed very strong |
kb9vqf | Right |
samelian | but for future, we must agree to use just one representation, to avoid user confusion |
kb9vqf | I think Trinity currently uses 2^ bytes e.g. in Konqueror |
kb9vqf | kind of a legacy thing IIRC |
*kb9vqf is not sure | |
kb9vqf | Yes |
samelian | right now I assume that users think in binary representation |
kb9vqf | Looks like 2^X is currently in use |
kb9vqf | Let's just use that for now |
samelian | ok, put somewhere this issue, to debate it later |
kb9vqf | Sure |
kb9vqf | It shouldn't bee too hard to do correcly |
kb9vqf | Just use the correct names :) |
samelian | hehe |
kb9vqf | gibibyte |
samelian | but we must be sure that EVERY trinity app do this in the same way |
kb9vqf | Right |
kb9vqf | Currently all that I know of use the binary representation |
kb9vqf | And the ambiguous prefixes MB, GB, etc. |
samelian | ok, I think we have a lot broken things at this time, so we can delay to debate this thing to next releases |
kb9vqf | Sure |
samelian | also, we must check how modern distros count disk sizes |
samelian | sometime ago I read somewhere that ubuntu will use metric system for disk sizes |
samelian | I'm not sure if this happened |
kb9vqf | let's focus on bugs for now |
samelian | of course |
kb9vqf | Can you go through the bugtracker and see if there are any bugs that you may be able to fix? |
kb9vqf | I have not been able to do triage |
kb9vqf | Too much work for one person |
kb9vqf | :( |
samelian | sure |
samelian | I will try |
kb9vqf | Thanks :) |
samelian | I have my own list :) |
kb9vqf | I need to make sure I didn't introduce any more bugs in the TQt conversion process |
kb9vqf | Those bugs are hard to find and fix so I will be busy with that for a while |
samelian | cmake will introduce new bugs for sure :) |
kb9vqf | ugghhh |
*kb9vqf is NOT looking forward to rebuilding for Debian/Ubuntu. :-P | |
samelian | hehe |
samelian | I think that "low disk space" dialog must have 3 buttons |
samelian | "start file manager", "remind me later", "cancel" |
kb9vqf | Sounds good |
*samelian has joined #trinity-desktop | |
samelian | kb9vqf: seems that is a problem with constructions like this: |
samelian | TQCheckBox *checkbox = ::tqqt_cast<TQCheckBox*>( m_freeDialog->child( 0, "TQCheckBox" ) ); |
samelian | m_freeDialog->child( 0, "TQCheckBox" ) returning NULL |
samelian | m_freeDialog->child( 0, "QCheckBox" ) seems fine |
samelian | I think that is because child() method come from Qt |
kb9vqf | Yes |
samelian | and of course, Qt have no ideea about tqt |
kb9vqf | You are correct (again) |
kb9vqf | Thank you for tracking that down |
kb9vqf | I will see what I can do to fix it |
kb9vqf | First thing will be a ->tqchild() function |
kb9vqf | that translates like the rest of Tqt |
samelian | we can reimplement trinity core to not use child() in this way |
samelian | but I think will be hard to hunt all of them |
kb9vqf | Right |
kb9vqf | It will have to be like this: |
kb9vqf | m_freeDialog->tqchild( 0, "QCheckBox" ) |
kb9vqf | just a quirk |
samelian | but next time when you will run sed against trinity code base, "QCheckBox" will be replaced again to "TQCheckBox" |
kb9vqf | Not if I exclude quoted strings |
kb9vqf | Quoted strings will need to be "Q" not "TQ" for now |
samelian | ok then, I'll wait for you fix |
samelian | today is too later for me anyway |
samelian | there is 02:47 AM (GMT+2) :) |
samelian | actually, if you will fix this issue, the bug #428 will be solved (at least, partially) |
tbottu | Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=428 enh, P5, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, Low disk space warning won't go away as expected |
kb9vqf | Right |
kb9vqf | I'll see what I can do :) |
samelian | the problematic code is this: |
samelian | void MediaNotifier::slotFreeFinished( KMessageBox::ButtonCode res ) |
samelian | { |
samelian | TQCheckBox *checkbox = ::tqqt_cast<TQCheckBox*>( m_freeDialog->child( 0, "TQCheckBox" ) ); |
samelian | if ( checkbox && checkbox->isChecked() ) |
samelian | KMessageBox::saveDontShowAgainYesNo("dontagainfreespace", res); |
samelian | because checkbox is always null, "dontagainfreespace" is not saved never |
samelian | actually I see a potential bug in original code |
samelian | if res is KMessageBox::Continue, the media notifier will ignore "Do not ask again" |
samelian | because is still true |
samelian | or maybe is inverted logic, i'm not sure yet |
samelian | actually my problem is that if the user check "Do not ask again", there is not way to revert this option |
samelian | but I can live with this, for a while :) |
samelian | gn all |

Piki | hello |
Piki | found out from bero (Ark's head dev) that mandriva ported apt-rpm to RPM5, and zypper is having some issues right now for us, so we may end up ditching that if it doesn't work, or maybe including apt and zypper, and using one as the default |
Piki | problems is finding something that will work in both TDE and KDE4 |
Piki | as a graphical frontend |
Piki | that does NOT drag in any extra deps that we don't need |
Piki | preferrably something that will just call apt or zypper directly (or use their libs), we don't need any extra networking, hotplugging, or authentication stuff |
Piki | and also has to be based on Qt |
Piki | if anybody has any suggestions, feel free to let me know! |
Piki | wow kwin on kde4.6 stable really eats up my cpu whenever i switch from one window to another |

Piki | hi MutantTurkey |
MutantTurkey | hey |
MutantTurkey | sorry |
MutantTurkey | about to go install linux for my friend :) |
Piki | MutantTurkey: if his computer is old enough, Ark 2008.1! if not, dual-boot him Debian and Ark dockyard-devel ;-) |
kb9vqf | samelian: Fixes should be in SVN |
kb9vqf | For Bug 428 |
tbottu | Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=428 enh, P5, ---, kb9vqf, RESO FIXED, Low disk space warning won't go away as expected |
samelian | kb9vqf: i saw |
kb9vqf | OK |
kb9vqf | Can you take a look at one of the other two remaining bugs that Kris reported? |
kb9vqf | Maybe Bug 431 should be dealt with |
tbottu | Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=431 maj, P5, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, KDE forgets certain keyboard settings |
kb9vqf | I don't have enough experience with xkb/low level keyboard stuff to fix it |
kb9vqf | Quickly at any rate :-P |
Piki | i reported something? |
Piki | or another kris? |
Piki | btw, i've tde svn downloaded now, on a clean build environment, just need to grab qt3 and the tqt-qt3 patch |
Piki | kb9vqf: i think we should have line numbers in the irc logs, make things easier when/if we need to refer people to the logs, just tell them to look at a line and they can find it ;-) |
kb9vqf | Piki: yes I agree |
kb9vqf | And no, I'm sorry, I meant Luciano |
*kb9vqf has too many names floating around in his memory | |
kb9vqf | :-P |
Piki | i have a very bad memory when it comes to names, the only reason i remember kb9vqf <-> tim is because kb9vqf is the only op in the channel ;-) |
kb9vqf | Heh |
kb9vqf | tbottu's an op too... |
kb9vqf | :) |
Piki | ok, the only "human" op ;-) |
*hoernerfranz has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Piki | hi hoernerfranz |
hoernerfranz | hi piki :) |
hoernerfranz | I'm new here, trinity rocks |
Piki | kb9vqf, samelian: more praise from the users! you guys must be doing a really good job ;-) |
kb9vqf | Glad to hear it! :)) |
*K`zan has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | I'm not alone anymore though |
kb9vqf | Lots of people helping now |
kb9vqf | :) |
Piki | once i get the qt3 patch, i'll get started |
Piki | though i seem to remember a missing file |
Piki | when trying to apply the patch |
hoernerfranz | ok, I know who is Piki from the mailingslist already, but who is kb9vqf ? |
Piki | Tim Pearson |
kb9vqf | The project founder |
Piki | the lovely leader of TDE ;-) |
hoernerfranz | ok, thanks, that was what I supposed.. |
hoernerfranz | jst few words for me: I'm a longtime kde user |
hoernerfranz | also active on kde-linux and kdepim-users + quanta mailingslists |
hoernerfranz | also followed kde4.x from the beginning |
hoernerfranz | had lots of patience |
hoernerfranz | but slowly got fed up with virtuoso/nepomuk/akonadi bloat |
hoernerfranz | not to say all that's bad |
Piki | yes, i hate KDE4, they still haven't gotten stuff right |
hoernerfranz | but just the way everything seems to go: ressource hogs |
Piki | i'm working on making TDE packages for my distro, currently surviving with KDE4 until i do |
hoernerfranz | slackware ? |
Piki | nope |
Piki | Ark Linux |
Piki | only distro that has ever worked for me |
hoernerfranz | ok, confused that |
Piki | unfortunately my computer is too new for their last release, we're working on a new version with KDE4, and we want to do both KDE4 and TDE |
hoernerfranz | have heard good things about ark, but never tried it |
Piki | i think there are already Slackware packages on the trinity site |
Piki | hoernerfranz: yes, i love it, and it's the first and only distro to work for me |
hoernerfranz | once I used gentoo for awhile, but gave up due to constantly anything broken |
hoernerfranz | now I prefer debian based distros (currently kubuntu+squeeze) |
Piki | never had much luck with any of the *buntus, they all have problems on any machine i try them on |
hoernerfranz | but in general, it's a shame that virtually everyone gave up on kde3.x |
Piki | and debian feels like it's stable under the hood, but it's UI has always had trouble |
Piki | Squeeze seems to work so far with TDE, but i haven't done thorough testing with it yet |
hoernerfranz | hm, what do mean with UI trobles ? - and yes TDE works well on squeeze |
Piki | it seemed like various parts of the GUI crashed a lot, even in KDE3, sometimes even X |
Piki | and the sound always stuttered |
hoernerfranz | ok, sounds a bit weird to me, but might be due to not fully supported hardware/lame drivers |
hoernerfranz | I never had any total crashes (X) here, just crashing flash plugins etc :) |
Piki | i thought lenny was supposed to support stuff made in 2009? including stuff that uses F\OSS stuff |
hoernerfranz | lenny seems a bit outdated, nowadays (couldn't even install it on my current machine, which is nothing extravagant) |
hoernerfranz | may I ask where you live, Piki ? |
Piki | Pittsburgh, PA |
hoernerfranz | ok, thanks, I'm in germany, near Karlsruhe (south-west) |
Piki | the Ark Linux head developer used to live in germany |
Piki | he moved to switzerland |
hoernerfranz | well, there are lots of linux developers here, especially kde :) |
hoernerfranz | even if in the public, everything seems to be dominated by MS |
Piki | unfortunate but true |
Piki | can't find a decent machine from the manufacturers because they only support wincrap |
Piki | and i prefer laptops, but i can't build a custom laptop because all the good parts are on lockdown |
hoernerfranz | same here, at least for the big players |
hoernerfranz | but there are some alternatives, though, mostly webshops |
hoernerfranz | it is also sad that the first tries with linux on netbooks didn't succeed in the public |
Piki | we have netbook versions of various UI's in linux |
hoernerfranz | but I still have one of the first eeepc 701, which shipped with a crappy custom linux from asus |
hoernerfranz | but debian runs very well on it (still) |
Piki | we may end up doing a win-version of TDE at some point in the future |
Piki | and a netbook version |
Piki | once we get the main stuff taken care of |
hoernerfranz | win-version ?? |
Piki | yeah, we're thinking of porting TDE to windoze |
Piki | at least the main apps |
hoernerfranz | OMG |
Piki | provide some comfort to those of us forced to use windoze, and help get windoze users comfortable enough to switch |
Piki | but that won't be for awhile |
hoernerfranz | that's nonsense, IMHO |
Piki | why? |
hoernerfranz | I've seen everyone use firefox/OOO/whatever free software on windoze, but noone ever even is willing to try even a linux live CD |
Piki | well, people tend to think live cds will damage their hard disk install |
Piki | we need to convince them otherwise |
hoernerfranz | bringing good (linux) sw to windoze will just make this monopole last longer |
Piki | and besides, i'd rather use kopete than AIM+Facebook+Gtalk |
hoernerfranz | so to say: free support for steve ballmer&co :) |
Piki | we won't be able to port all TDE features over to windoze, it won't support everything |
*mutantturkey_ has joined #trinity-desktop | |
mutantturkey_ | o/ |
mutantturkey_ | Piki: you around still? |
Piki | and we can say we don't support windoze, so try it on linux to get every feature + support |
Piki | mutantturkey_: yep |
mutantturkey_ | say, what are we talkin about? |
mutantturkey_ | yeah, F windoze support. |
mutantturkey_ | Piki: did you resolve the situation we discussed? |
hoernerfranz | ok :) |
Piki | currently, a debate on whether or not to port TDE to windoze |
mutantturkey_ | ah |
mutantturkey_ | how would that even work? |
Piki | mutantturkey_: not yet, currently emailing with someone about it |
*kb9vqf would NOT help with the Window$ port | |
mutantturkey_ | and or, why the heck would you want it? |
Piki | mutantturkey_: same as KDE4 win port |
mutantturkey_ | D: |
hoernerfranz | @kb9vqf: thumbs up ;-) |
mutantturkey_ | i can't imagine windoze being any slower. |
Piki | mutantturkey_: well, if i'm forced to use windoze, at least i could get a bit of comfort by using TDE |
mutantturkey_ | anyway, whats going on here? oh and kb9vqf i fixed up that bzip and have it ready to go. just gotta email it. |
Piki | mutantturkey_: TDE would be faster than the KDE4 win port, of course ;-) |
mutantturkey_ | Piki: obviously ;( |
mutantturkey_ | bad keyboard. lol supposed to be a :) |
kb9vqf | Right, I do understand, but unless Trinity is fully LGPL licensed and we can profit from sales to Windows users I don't really see it helping the project at all |
Piki | kb9vqf: well, i guess once i learn to code, i could head the win port |
mutantturkey_ | Piki: DON' |
Piki | why would it need to be lgpl? |
mutantturkey_ | DON'T |
Piki | mutantturkey_: why not? |
mutantturkey_ | the amount of time to do so is ridiculous. |
kb9vqf | Err...I guess it wouldn't |
mutantturkey_ | I mean, think about how many people are just working on the KDE4 port. |
kb9vqf | Public domain is more likely |
mutantturkey_ | i mean, tbh we should consolidate our efforts |
kb9vqf | Anyway it wouldn't happen : |
kb9vqf | :) |
mutantturkey_ | to provide the best linux interface |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | BUT |
kb9vqf | I won't stop someone who wants to work on it |
kb9vqf | That's the KDE4 mentality |
mutantturkey_ | right. |
Piki | mutantturkey_: oh i'd still be helping with the linux version |
mutantturkey_ | waste of time though I say :P |
mutantturkey_ | yeah |
kb9vqf | It's up to Piki what he wants to do |
mutantturkey_ | but kde 3.5 is a giant codebase that really needs more devels, so splitting the effort at this point, i see as hurting the project. |
kb9vqf | Just because you or I don't want to work on something doesn't mean he can't |
kb9vqf | And yes |
kb9vqf | BUT |
Piki | kb9vqf: if it's already GPL, it can't be public domain, it's in one of their clauses, and it's also there we can sell it |
mutantturkey_ | rather than having two half assed versions, we could come up with a really kick ass environment for linux |
kb9vqf | Piki: I know, I know |
kb9vqf | I wrote a half formed idea :-P |
Piki | mutantturkey_: we wait until some of the key issues are taken care of, then i start the win port |
kb9vqf | mutantturkey: If we tell the devels what they can't do we risk losking them entirel |
mutantturkey_ | :) |
kb9vqf | *entirely |
mutantturkey_ | right. |
kb9vqf | Who knows |
Piki | and hopefully by then, we'll have more devel |
Piki | s |
kb9vqf | When he fixes Window$ bugs some Unix bugs might be fixed as well |
mutantturkey_ | I think, that Trinity has potential to gain mass support from linux. |
kb9vqf | I would hope so |
mutantturkey_ | because frankly there are alot of old warts who love 3.5 (no offence) and it is a modern desktop that is customizable |
kb9vqf | I know of old, middle-aged, and young warts on Trinity :) |
mutantturkey_ | so. if we make it kick ass, we could really have the project take off as one of the "big 4" |
Piki | well, if we do sell it in the windoze world and people see that it works well and is free in linux, they may switch |
kb9vqf | Yeah |
mutantturkey_ | Piki: nah |
mutantturkey_ | sorry. t |
mutantturkey_ | i don't think that would happen |
mutantturkey_ | the whole concept of a desktop environment is completely foreign to them. |
kb9vqf | I don't know |
mutantturkey_ | but maybe. |
Piki | yeah, but they may still decide to try it |
mutantturkey_ | It wouldn't hurt |
mutantturkey_ | what do you mean, sell it? |
kb9vqf | As a former Windows user I did try to run KDE on Windows |
kb9vqf | Or rather looked for a way to do it |
kb9vqf | I couldn't find one so I stayed with Windows |
kb9vqf | Wasn't willing to make a full switch at the time |
Piki | mutantturkey_: as in, provide it to windoze users for a price, like with any win software |
Piki | kb9vqf: cygwin |
kb9vqf | Yeah, but it was too complex for me at the time |
kb9vqf | Make the build environment completely horrid so that people will want to pay for the binaries ;-) |
mutantturkey_ | i hear cygwin is awful and dead |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | It is |
mutantturkey_ | Piki: how would you sell it? |
mutantturkey_ | i mean, its open soure |
kb9vqf | See above :) ^^ |
mutantturkey_ | I think that would just turn people off |
mutantturkey_ | "look at those jerks selling it" |
kb9vqf | Most Windows users want binaries, not source |
Piki | mutantturkey_: it's Free Software, look it up at gnu.org |
mutantturkey_ | it would come back to hurt us. |
kb9vqf | I dunno |
kb9vqf | It's a long way off anyway |
kb9vqf | Vaporware |
kb9vqf | ATM |
mutantturkey_ | I don't think we should focus on windows yet anyway. |
mutantturkey_ | plenty of bugs to clear up anyways :P |
Piki | besides, most win users don't know what Free Software or Open Source is |
mutantturkey_ | (which i keept meaning to get a jump on) |
kb9vqf | And most won't want to build from source |
mutantturkey_ | Piki: they have no concept of it. |
Piki | that's why i say "in the future" |
mutantturkey_ | 99% won |
*kb9vqf is speaking from experience | |
mutantturkey_ | won't know how |
mutantturkey_ | hell, i don't know how on windows |
Piki | mingw |
kb9vqf | So that's how you sell it |
Piki | win port of gcc |
kb9vqf | Sell the binaries |
kb9vqf | Subscription model or similar |
kb9vqf | Proceeds to benefit the project developers :) |
Piki | bring in funding for TDE development ;-) |
mutantturkey_ | hmmm |
mutantturkey_ | well. |
mutantturkey_ | I don't like the idea. |
Piki | but like i said, not till we get further down the road |
kb9vqf | Much further |
mutantturkey_ | I think we should instead provide support for cash |
Piki | and even if we don't make it public |
mutantturkey_ | like |
kb9vqf | Anyone up to pick through the bugtracker? |
mutantturkey_ | "25 bucks a year and we will have phone call assistance, etc" |
mutantturkey_ | i mean that is what people, and buisnesses want |
Piki | we can still use it among ourselves, when we're forced to use windoze, and if someone sees us, tell them it's available in linux |
Piki | mutantturkey_: or, perhaps, pay for the current release, free upgrades, free support, we can setup a google voice account |
hoernerfranz | interesting debate :) |
Piki | but we can worry about that in the future when the time comes |
*kb9vqf notes that users are up and donations are down so we will have to think of other ways to bring in funding | |
hoernerfranz | but i'll leave now, have to get up at 6 am tomorrow, good night |
kb9vqf | gn |
mutantturkey_ | yes exactly |
mutantturkey_ | something along the lines of support i think is a good idea |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | I don't have time myself though |
Piki | even if we don't make it public, i still think i'll do it anyway, i'll still want that little bit of comfort in wincrap |
mutantturkey_ | if you don't mind, how much has the project pulled in from donations? |
kb9vqf | mutantturkey_: It depends greatly |
kb9vqf | This month was a whopping $15 |
mutantturkey_ | D: |
mutantturkey_ | total? |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | It really fell off from last year |
mutantturkey_ | last year it was? |
kb9vqf | Last year was over $1000 |
mutantturkey_ | :) |
mutantturkey_ | thats nice |
kb9vqf | Enough to pay for service and the build farm |
kb9vqf | Well, part of it anyway |
Piki | i'd donate if i had money |
kb9vqf | Devels don't need to donate :) |
mutantturkey_ | okay, well we need to pull up donations, the 3.5.12 will pull up cash donations |
*hoernerfranz has left #trinity-desktop | |
mutantturkey_ | just stick a big (donate here!) thing on the 3.5.12 download page |
Piki | kb9vqf: i'm not a TDE devel, at least not yet |
*kb9vqf knows | |
mutantturkey_ | i just sit here and troll :P |
kb9vqf | And do the web stuff |
*mutantturkey_ pretends to help, really just offers useless ideas | |
mutantturkey_ | right. |
mutantturkey_ | that too! |
*kb9vqf should clarify that the $1000 was total for the year | |
Piki | once Ark gets a release out, i'll hopefully have more time to actually test TDE, right now the only testing i can do is needed so we can have packages\ |
mutantturkey_ | Piki: exactly |
Piki | i also have to test Ark since we've yet to release |
mutantturkey_ | once we sart getting david to do regular builds, arch users will help out more |
mutantturkey_ | we are extremely helpful :) |
mutantturkey_ | I swear, Arch is 90% developers. I don't know anyone from #archlinux who doesn't know at least a bit of programming. |
mutantturkey_ | we love helping out, and if we get trinity in our repos, that means that we will have a good userbase. |
Piki | i could be that one person if i had time to figure out the networking |
mutantturkey_ | Piki: how is ark progressing? |
Piki | slow, but we're almost there i think |
Piki | apparently mandriva ported apt-rpm to RPM5, which will make things easier |
Piki | we'll still need a GUI app though |
Piki | one that doesn't pull in the unnecessary deps |
mutantturkey_ | what have you looked at? |
mutantturkey_ | any that are pulling in those bad deps? I could rewrite them to not use them |
mutantturkey_ | if they aren't critical. |
Piki | we already have our PAM modules for authentication, we have our own networking through which apt/zypper can use |
Piki | mutantturkey_: nothing yet |
mutantturkey_ | I think i provided some links a while back |
mutantturkey_ | what is your backend like |
Piki | we just need something in Qt that can just call on apt or zypper |
mutantturkey_ | the library, what is it? |
Piki | if we use zypper, it will be libzypp |
mutantturkey_ | ah |
Piki | dunno for apt |
mutantturkey_ | then use synaptic |
mutantturkey_ | or |
Piki | synaptic is GTK |
mutantturkey_ | there is a kubuntu alternative to synaptic |
Piki | not Qt |
mutantturkey_ | i think |
kb9vqf | mutantturkey_: There used to be Adept |
kb9vqf | Adept uses outdated backend libs though |
kb9vqf | And the interface, frankly, STINKS |
Piki | apt-get is in debian/ubuntu, and apt-rpm allows it to interface to RPM |
mutantturkey_ | what is the bakend libs |
mutantturkey_ | ? |
kb9vqf | libept |
kb9vqf | and friends |
mutantturkey_ | libept? i am unfamiliar |
kb9vqf | It's a deb parsing library |
Piki | apparently mandriva ported apt-rpm to rpm5, which is what we use |
kb9vqf | Hang on |
kb9vqf | Do you use .deb or .rpm? |
Piki | rpm5 |
kb9vqf | Oh |
kb9vqf | Sorry |
mutantturkey_ | what is mandrivias frontend? |
kb9vqf | Adept is only .deb AFAIK |
Piki | dunno |
Piki | haven't used mandriva |
Piki | at least not for any considerable length of time |
mutantturkey_ | hmmm |
kb9vqf | kpackage |
mutantturkey_ | use that? |
kb9vqf | Dunno if it's a full manager yet |
mutantturkey_ | why reinvent the wheel? |
kb9vqf | kpackage looks like a full package manager (like Synaptic) |
kb9vqf | I think it has RPM support too |
Piki | kpackage looked a bit scary when i first started linux |
mutantturkey_ | use it! |
kb9vqf | It isn't the friendliest to be sure |
Piki | we want something that is good for new users |
kb9vqf | So modify the UI |
kb9vqf | Add a "simple mode" |
Piki | with what man power? |
kb9vqf | Dunno |
kb9vqf | Just a thought |
kb9vqf | So you don't have to rewrite all the backend stuff |
Piki | our only coder is already extremely busy with work, he's barely making progress with Ark development |
kb9vqf | Sounds like me :-P |
Piki | we were using Kynaptic, but that's qt3, and was always crashing |
Piki | we're doing both TDE and KDE4 |
mutantturkey_ | Don't call me a jerk, but what is the purpose of resurrecting Ark? (jw i never used it) |
Piki | it never died |
Piki | we're not resurrecting it, we're trying to make a new release |
mutantturkey_ | oh sorry |
mutantturkey_ | i am confused the |
Piki | most of these distros aren't newbie friendly, and the ones that are don't work too well |
mutantturkey_ | my mistake |
mutantturkey_ | ubuntu D: |
kb9vqf | Piki: I would honestly go with kpackage and if time could be found just move some GUI elements around |
mutantturkey_ | who is the webadmin? |
Piki | we want to make something newbie friendly that actually works |
mutantturkey_ | Piki: i could help with kpackage |
mutantturkey_ | probably |
Piki | mutantturkey_: ubuntu doesn't work |
Piki | not on any of our systems |
mutantturkey_ | if it is in the internest of of Trinity. |
kb9vqf | I would start by making the treeview into a januswidget |
mutantturkey_ | but trinity is agnostic so |
kb9vqf | For categories |
Piki | or any of other systems i put it one |
kb9vqf | Then add another listview that shows all packages in the current category |
mutantturkey_ | ubuntu software center kicks ass |
mutantturkey_ | I just saw it for the first time last week. |
mutantturkey_ | great for new users. |
Piki | kb9vqf: if we could get help, make it actually friendly toward new users so they can use it easily, fine, but we've no time |
kb9vqf | Piki: Right, I was talking to mutantturkey :) |
Piki | mutantturkey_: i'm the ark webmaster |
kb9vqf | Otherwise I know of no programs in existence that will do what you want |
Piki | and i have the assistance of jo-fluff |
mutantturkey_ | do you like drupal? |
mutantturkey_ | I haven't used it. but i've heard good things |
Piki | i may start a new GUI replacement for apt AFTER the ark release |
Piki | mutantturkey_: yes, drupal works great |
mutantturkey_ | cool cool |
kb9vqf | Right |
kb9vqf | AFTER the release consider modifying kpackage then :) |
kb9vqf | It will save you a lot of backend hassle |
Piki | kb9vqf: but we need something for the current release |
kb9vqf | I do not know of anything in existence ATM for the RPM platform |
kb9vqf | Sorry :( |
Piki | besides, i may make the GUI <-> APT interface, separate |
mutantturkey_ | okay i am off. gotta reboot this baby. |
mutantturkey_ | Piki: smart idea. |
Piki | make it easy to port it to other systems |
Xu_R | whoo, back |
*Xu_R is tired from school | |
mutantturkey_ | anyway tty guys later. kb9vqf i'll send over the new bzip Piki let me know if you need help with kpackage |
mutantturkey_ | Xu_R: go sleepy :) |
kb9vqf | OK thanks :) |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: did that yesterday. today too much hw >_< |
*field_it has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Xu_R | grr. |
*Xu_R kicks his server | |
Xu_R | damn lighttpd died again |
kb9vqf | *Xu_R's server bites back |
kb9vqf | :) |
Xu_R | eek! |
Xu_R | since when did my server have teeth...? |
*Xu_R looks into its mouth XD | |
Piki | stupid kde-apps.org, keeps wanting me to download safari.jsp |
Xu_R | Piki: O_o |
Xu_R | Guessing you're using Konqueror? |
Piki | hmm, can't even find an apt-get frontend there, might have to do one myself before we release anyway |
Piki | but that'll have to wait, about to start work |
Xu_R | tbottu: tell Piki you /ignore 'd me again? .-. |
tbottu | Xu_R: Sorry, I've no idea what 'tell Piki you /ignore 'd me again? .-' might be. |
*Xu_R has no idea how to operate tbottu | |
kb9vqf | You can't do that |
Xu_R | o. |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: tbottu won't repeat non-op text |
Xu_R | no wonder. |
Xu_R | Well, I have a feeling Piki /ignore'd me again... w/e. lol. Don't really care in the end. |
kb9vqf | Yeah |
kb9vqf | Don't worry about it |
kb9vqf | It's probably better this way |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: true. |
*kb9vqf doesn't want the channel exploding | |
Piki | anway, time to go |
*Piki has left #trinity-desktop | |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: hehe. exploding isn't good XD |
kb9vqf | That old saying IS true....herding programmers is like herding cats |
kb9vqf | :-P |
Xu_R | lol |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: this is what threw Piki off the edge: http://groups.google.com/group/ul-developers/browse_thread/thread/6eb16f91236a25c7/5a65fbe3978a05ca?q=kde3&lnk=ol& |
Xu_R | It's this fight between developers... |
Xu_R | read it over if you want to understand the situation |
Xu_R | brb dinner |
kb9vqf | Hmm....the most interesting thing there is the mention of "trash code" |
kb9vqf | So anything not based on the (severely limited) Qt4 API is now "trash"?? |
kb9vqf | Qt4 did more harm to the Linux open source model than Microsoft or Apple could ever have done :-/ |
kb9vqf | In that it has caused so much existing work to be thrown out the window |
kb9vqf | What's next, throwing out the entire kernel because it's based on C and not C++??? |
kb9vqf | If anything Qt4 seems to bring out everything that's WRONG about open source |
kb9vqf | :((( |
kb9vqf | When I read things like that I don't want to work on open source projects any more |
kb9vqf | But then my alternative is Windows$$$$$$$$ so I am between a rock and a hard place |
kb9vqf | Anyway, just my $0.02 |
kb9vqf | Back to your regulary scheduled programming |
Xu_R | damnit, forgot to put the stove to high instead of low... |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: true. hmm... truthfully, in my 2 cents I see Piki always taking a defensive stance as if everything is insulting him.. :-\ |
*Xu_R sighs | |
Xu_R | ok, *changes back to regular programming* |
*Space_Man has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: why are we porting to qt4 again then? |
MutantTurkey | I mean would it be better or worse to try and keep qt3 updated? |
kb9vqf | WORSE |
kb9vqf | I'm extending the Qt4 API |
kb9vqf | We need the improved graphics support |
MutantTurkey | then why are we doing it? |
MutantTurkey | (sorry i just am confused) |
MutantTurkey | qt3 we think is better, so why drop it? |
MutantTurkey | has anyone tried out qtFM? https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=97669 |
MutantTurkey | its a small qt file manager |
kb9vqf | Well, we're note actually dropping Qt3 |
kb9vqf | *not |
kb9vqf | We're porting Trinity to TQt |
kb9vqf | Which then can use any Qt backend available |
kb9vqf | (in theory) |
MutantTurkey | right. |
MutantTurkey | well |
MutantTurkey | well then in (theory) couldn't it use gtk? |
kb9vqf | Not without a LOT of effort |
kb9vqf | As in a large team of well trained and paid programmers |
MutantTurkey | :P |
MutantTurkey | then it won't really be backend agnostic? |
kb9vqf | It's QT agnostic |
kb9vqf | Not toolkit agnostic |
kb9vqf | There's a difference |
kb9vqf | :) |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: hey, is there any chance that you could release a test live cd with Qt4? ;) |
kb9vqf | Nowhere near ready |
kb9vqf | :-P |
kb9vqf | All I have that's even TQt ported is arts, kdelibs, kdebase |
kb9vqf | I can't log out |
kb9vqf | And there are all kinds of graphical glitches still |
Xu_R | we're risktakers, kb9vqf. :P |
kb9vqf | Some of the Trinity code is quite nasty and tries to access Xorg directly :-{ |
kb9vqf | Well if you want to make one I can't stop you |
Xu_R | I'm guessing remanants of KDE3? |
kb9vqf | But I'm not going to yet :) |
kb9vqf | Well the entire project is remnants of KDE3 ;-) |
kb9vqf | But yes |
kb9vqf | Hacks around missing Qt3 functionality mostly |
Xu_R | ah. |
MutantTurkey | hahah :P |
MutantTurkey | is qt4 just dumbed down? |
MutantTurkey | lacks important and helpful qt3 functions? |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | Essentially |
kb9vqf | It removes a lot of painting functions |
kb9vqf | And there are a TON of class/method name changes |
MutantTurkey | ah okay |
kb9vqf | A lot of the widgets that can't be used on mobile phones are removed |
kb9vqf | or make large and clunky |
MutantTurkey | gonna go play around with it now. |
kb9vqf | *made |
MutantTurkey | right |
MutantTurkey | bbs |
kb9vqf | OK |
kb9vqf | Just fixed the Konqueror icon activation effect on Qt4 :) |
kb9vqf | Now to figure out why KWin keeps exiting with no error.... |
*kb9vqf notes that kwin quits when it shouldn't and ksplash doesn't quit when it should.....isn't programming fun?? ;-P | |
Xu_R | of course it's fun. XD lol |
*MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | o/ |
Xu_R | wb MutantTurkey |
*MutantTurkey_ has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey_ | odd disconnect |
Xu_R | o.o |
MutantTurkey_ | I hopped onto David Rankins/ the othe guy thread about Arch+ Kdemod3 + whatever + trinity and did a bit of Public Relations work |
MutantTurkey_ | https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=896139#p896139 |
MutantTurkey_ | hopefully i can maintain some sort of 'offical' (not really but whatever) presence to reassure people a bit. |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey_: 3.5.13 may be postponed, but the public relations work is great :D |
MutantTurkey_ | yeah of course |
MutantTurkey_ | the trick is getting people on our side |
kb9vqf | Sure |
kb9vqf | Keep up the good work |
kb9vqf | Whoa |
kb9vqf | There goes your doppelganger |
kb9vqf | :) |
MutantTurkey_ | :P |
Xu_R | lol |
MutantTurkey_ | my dad is a PR guy so i know some tricks of the trade |
kb9vqf | Well, you can be official PR guy then |
kb9vqf | :) |
MutantTurkey_ | :P |
MutantTurkey_ | yay! |
Xu_R | :D |
MutantTurkey_ | at least i'd like to be some sort of Arch Liason |
kb9vqf | Sure |
kb9vqf | We need someone out in the community |
MutantTurkey_ | yo. i am down to do that. |
kb9vqf | Making sure problems don't get out of hand, etc. |
MutantTurkey_ | I love people, I love trolling around. |
kb9vqf | Works for me |
MutantTurkey_ | honestly I like programming but talking is better for me |
Xu_R | lol, trolling around ;) |
MutantTurkey_ | well, you know. |
MutantTurkey_ | being to serious is never good. |
Xu_R | true. |
Xu_R | exactly why I can't do stuff like that XD |
MutantTurkey_ | xD |
MutantTurkey_ | well being serious is also very good |
Xu_R | I feel like the warden... xD |
MutantTurkey_ | lol |
MutantTurkey_ | my whole k control center is empty D: |
kb9vqf | Now now, we all know that's MY job ;-) |
kb9vqf | ? |
kb9vqf | What did you do? |
Xu_R | lol kb9vqf |
MutantTurkey_ | Settings -> Control Center |
MutantTurkey_ | nothing comes up on the left. am i missing something? |
kb9vqf | Well, yes, but I guess it was working before? |
MutantTurkey_ | D: It may be a Arch problem (actually it probably is) |
kb9vqf | You probably don't have an XDG variable or two set |
MutantTurkey_ | any specific ones? |
kb9vqf | That's a packaging problem (as you surmised) |
kb9vqf | Hang on |
kb9vqf | These are mine: |
kb9vqf | MANPATH=/opt/kde3/share/man: |
kb9vqf | LD_PRELOAD=/opt/kde3/lib/kgtk/libkgtk2.so: |
kb9vqf | KDEDIR=/opt/kde3/ |
kb9vqf | XDG_CONFIG_DIRS=:/opt/kde3/etc/xdg/:/etc/xdg/ |
kb9vqf | PATH=/opt/kde3/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games |
kb9vqf | KDEDIRS=/opt/kde3/:/usr/ |
kb9vqf | XDG_DATA_DIRS=:/opt/kde3/share/:/usr/share/ |
kb9vqf | I would suspect KDEDIR, XDG_DATA_DIRS, KDEDIRS |
kb9vqf | That and XDG_CONFIG_DIRS |
MutantTurkey_ | okay let me see |
kb9vqf | If those are all OK then you might very well be missing the kcontrol .desktop files |
MutantTurkey_ | where are those? |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: Hm, sometime I think it might be a good idea to move /opt/kde3/etc/xdg to /etc/xdg - merge them... |
kb9vqf | /opt/kde3/share/applications/kde/ |
kb9vqf | On my system of course |
kb9vqf | Your paths will be different |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: Someday.... |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: We can dream... |
kb9vqf | :) |
kb9vqf | Or we can get really angry at, say, DCOP |
MutantTurkey_ | its full. |
MutantTurkey_ | of desktop files. |
kb9vqf | OK |
MutantTurkey_ | let me check my envs |
kb9vqf | Then your environment variable(s) are wrong |
MutantTurkey_ | hold up flooded basement |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: hey, that sounds nice. let's bash dcop :P |
kb9vqf | :) |
kb9vqf | I tried to port to DBUS |
Xu_R | actually, let's bash dcop into dbus so that they fit together XD |
kb9vqf | DBUS is more limited |
kb9vqf | No global broadcast ability (!) |
kb9vqf | Makes things.....interesting |
kb9vqf | I kind of gave up |
kb9vqf | DCOP is one of a kind |
MutantTurkey_ | dbus is awesome! |
*Xu_R sighs | |
MutantTurkey_ | well. easy as hell to use |
kb9vqf | So is DCOP :) |
Xu_R | I'm not surprised that dbus had that limit |
MutantTurkey_ | plus if we used dbus, gnome people like us. |
Xu_R | truthfully. |
kb9vqf | It's very useful though |
Xu_R | They've made dbus so that it's easier to use via wrappers such as dbus-glib... |
MutantTurkey_ | I am comfortable with dbus, merely because i know what it is. all these different things confuse and scare users. |
kb9vqf | I've written all kinds of cool apps with DBUS |
MutantTurkey_ | Xu_R: yeah |
kb9vqf | using global user broadcast |
MutantTurkey_ | we need some serious theme work. |
MutantTurkey_ | defalts look like windoze D: |
MutantTurkey_ | defalts look like windoze D: |
MutantTurkey_ | sorry' |
kb9vqf | I like it that way :P |

kb9vqf | PATH is OK |
kb9vqf | It doesn't matter for tis |

MutantTurkey | KDE_DIRS checks out |
MutantTurkey | XDG_DATA_DIRS are okay also |
MutantTurkey | KDEDIR is also okay |
kb9vqf | XDG_CONFIG_DIRS? |
MutantTurkey | LD_PRELOAD is empty but i don't know how that would be related |
kb9vqf | It's not |
kb9vqf | XDG_CONFIG_DIRS is probably wrong |
kb9vqf | IMHO |
MutantTurkey | XDG_CONFIG_DIRS=/etc/xdg:/opt/trinity/etc/xdg/:/etc/xdg/ |
kb9vqf | And is kde-settings.menu in /opt/trinity/etc/xdg/ |
kb9vqf | or /opt/trinity/etc/xdg/menus/? |
MutantTurkey | lemmie heck |
MutantTurkey | yes |
kb9vqf | Huh |
kb9vqf | I don't know then |
kb9vqf | :( |
MutantTurkey | :( wahhh |
MutantTurkey | I'll ask David, if his is broken also, we know it is archlinux. |
kb9vqf | Sorry |
MutantTurkey | it's fine |
MutantTurkey | svn builds, breakage is expected :) |
Xu_R | ack, damnit, drupal is migrating to git from cvs :| |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: D: |
MutantTurkey | whaaaaaaaaaat why? |
MutantTurkey | Piki is a big drupal fan also |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: I introduced Piki to drupal |
MutantTurkey | that explains it :) |
Xu_R | he may be a big fan, but he still doesn't know how to use it fully ;) |
Xu_R | and they're migrating to git because it just seems smoother |
MutantTurkey | everything takes time to learn |
Xu_R | which means I cannot grab zen atm ._. |
MutantTurkey | what i expect from my versioning control system (cvs git svn whatever) is to NOT EXIST. |
MutantTurkey | if i have to even think about it, it is bad. |
MutantTurkey | i want a nice easy commit and push. |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: agreed. |
MutantTurkey | smoother the better |
kb9vqf | svn commit :)( |
MutantTurkey | yeah |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: hell no, you have to svn add/rm/mv/cp D: |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: Not with kdesvn |
Xu_R | I'd rather make changes and do one simple git ci --push |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: oh... well you're lucky with kdesvn then. :P |
kb9vqf | I don't generally use VCS without a GUI |
Xu_R | ah, I see. |
Xu_R | I got used to it by the subversion-like rpm package builder called OSC which communicates with build.opensuse.org in an svn like way. |
kb9vqf | Now I'm wondering why Qt4's QWidget::close() method won't actually close |
MutantTurkey | odd |
Xu_R | :-| |
MutantTurkey | is it hanging on something else? |
kb9vqf | I accepted the close event |
kb9vqf | Verified with GDB |
MutantTurkey | D: |
kb9vqf | Then it just....stays open |
Xu_R | :( |
kb9vqf | Grrrrr |
*Xu_R is wondering why it would do tha~ oh wait, Qt4. haha. never mind. | |
*kb9vqf wonders if it's another lovely window flag problem | |
kb9vqf | Qt4 also changed all the window flags |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: |
kb9vqf | For fun |
MutantTurkey | does kde accept themes from ~/.themes? |
Xu_R | lovely. |
kb9vqf | Not sure |
kb9vqf | I never really rethemed it from a file |
MutantTurkey | oh :P |
kb9vqf | I have a .kde3 directory I just replicate to my workstations :) |
MutantTurkey | :) |
kb9vqf | I set it up years ago |
kb9vqf | Try it and see I guess |
MutantTurkey | alright |
Xu_R | hmm. It's late for me, because I've got a few tests tmrw... |
MutantTurkey | fridays off xD |
Xu_R | >: |
Xu_R | lucky! |
MutantTurkey | i work hard on tues and thursdays to have it off though |
Xu_R | oh. That's nice. |
MutantTurkey | yeah |
Xu_R | Night, I'll try to checkin around 1100 and 1330 (lunch and programming ftw) and see how things are going :D |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: btw, the topic no longer has the logs url, and the logs are wayyy to long now :P |
kb9vqf | Huh |
kb9vqf | That must've gotten pushed off |
kb9vqf | And I know about the logs |
kb9vqf | The website needs some help ATM |
kb9vqf | I just don't have time right now |
MutantTurkey | reminds me, emailing that now |
Xu_R | lol |
Xu_R | nice to send out reminders though :) |
*Xu_R will probably be reading the logs to see what he missed before joining tmrw :P | |
*Xu_R has no life in doing so, but that never mattered LOL | |
*MutantTurkey_ has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey_ | FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUu |
MutantTurkey_ | >:[ |
Xu_R | LOL |
MutantTurkey_ | major irc client rage |
Xu_R | Revenge, I tell ya! :P |
*kb9vqf suggests a nice calming cup of tea and some time in front of the telly | |
kb9vqf | :) |
MutantTurkey_ | :D good idea |
Xu_R | oooh, I wish I could do that. |
Xu_R | sadly... (looks at pile of work that he just finished and the pile of studying that he is putting off) |
Xu_R | damn, that's some bad irc rage. |
Xu_R | *irc client rage |
MutantTurkey_ | lol |
MutantTurkey_ | kb9vqf: |
MutantTurkey_ | >:| |
MutantTurkey_ | sorry |
Xu_R | lol |
MutantTurkey_ | so it looks like kwin's themes are compiled .so's? |
kb9vqf | Probably are |
kb9vqf | It sounds right anyway |
Xu_R | hmm... I just figured out how I can use Piki's /ignore to my advantage. >:P (I feel like an evil person though if I do that...) |
kb9vqf | Don't |
MutantTurkey_ | what? |
kb9vqf | Or I'll sick tbottu on you |
MutantTurkey_ | who is Piki ignoring? |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: you mean sic, right? lol |
kb9vqf | Yes I do |
kb9vqf | Sorry |
*kb9vqf had a thinkpo | |
kb9vqf | thinko |
Xu_R | ...more like multiple typos. |
kb9vqf | Yup |
*kb9vqf needs to get off IRC | |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey_: me. he thinks I'm sided with "Evil Unity Trinity HATERS" and.. yea |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: we all need to get off of IRC lol |
kb9vqf | Well, I'd like to keep that conversation OFF this channel |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: yea, i'm not going further. |
MutantTurkey_ | yeah, lets keep the fighting to a minimum :) |
Xu_R | agreed. |
kb9vqf | Good |
MutantTurkey_ | I spoke to him breifly, hopefully the situation is resolved by now. |
kb9vqf | I think i found the qwidget::close problem though |
MutantTurkey_ | oh yeah? what was it? |
kb9vqf | It's in my reimplementation of setMainWidget |
Xu_R | let's just hope that his /ignore doesn't interfere with the conversation though... :-\ |
kb9vqf | Yet another method that was removed in Qt4 :-P |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: bravo! |
MutantTurkey_ | :D go kb9vqf! |
kb9vqf | I haven't actually fixed it yet, but... |
Xu_R | D: |
kb9vqf | knowing where it is is a plus |
Xu_R | :=| |
Xu_R | *:-| |
kb9vqf | setMainWidget is not simple |
kb9vqf | There is no Qt4 equivalent |
Xu_R | that doesn't sound fun at all |
Xu_R | eek... |
kb9vqf | More Qt hacking coming up... :-P |
kb9vqf | It could take a while |
Xu_R | oh joy. |
Xu_R | (sarcasm) XD |
kb9vqf | Might explain the kwin problem as well, not sure ATM |
MutantTurkey_ | kb9vqf: |
MutantTurkey_ | >:| |
kb9vqf | ? |
MutantTurkey_ | this web client sucks. |
kb9vqf | No kidding |
kb9vqf | I keep getting notifications |
MutantTurkey_ | usually its good, opera has some problems with it. |
kb9vqf | Every time you do that :-P |
MutantTurkey_ | how do i clone the whole ridiculously huge trinity tree? |
kb9vqf | Download it you mean? |
MutantTurkey_ | svn clone http://kde.org/branches/trinity/ |
kb9vqf | SVN doesn't "do" clone |
MutantTurkey_ | oh |
MutantTurkey_ | sorry |
MutantTurkey_ | I am so confused with so many of these vcs systems |
Xu_R | lol |
kb9vqf | http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/wiki/bin/view/Developers/HowToBuild |
kb9vqf | First SVN command there |
Xu_R | you have to svn co http://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/branches/trinity |
kb9vqf | And yes, anonsvn.kde.org stinks |
Xu_R | it's painful D: |
kb9vqf | That's probably the real reason for the GIT move |
kb9vqf | They're probably running the SVN server on a Pentium II or similar :-P |
Xu_R | everyone's migrating to GIT anyway |
MutantTurkey_ | why is that? |
MutantTurkey_ | not everyone |
MutantTurkey_ | many people |
Xu_R | follow the leader! :P |
kb9vqf | I've always found GIT a royal pain to use |
MutantTurkey_ | me too |
kb9vqf | Never really felt like I was in control of it |
MutantTurkey_ | i have found them all to get it my way |
kb9vqf | svn got in my way the least |
kb9vqf | So I use it exclusively |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: :-\ does that mean you'll probably move trinity to your own servers or google code/sourceforge if they migrate kde.org? |
MutantTurkey_ | thank god for awesoem bandwidth :) |
kb9vqf | Oh, probably |
Xu_R | ah. I see. |
kb9vqf | Not sure yet |
MutantTurkey_ | thats quite a large amout of space |
kb9vqf | I have room |
MutantTurkey_ | when you host it, you also keep all the revisions? |
kb9vqf | Come on, I host an entire build system |
Xu_R | ~ kb9vqf is contemplating... |
MutantTurkey_ | like all 150+ thousand of them? or however many commits there have been |
kb9vqf | Yes I would |
MutantTurkey_ | right |
kb9vqf | In fact Trinity may get its own disk pack |
kb9vqf | 2TB RAID |
Xu_R | ooh. |
MutantTurkey_ | i'll donate |
MutantTurkey_ | for that |
MutantTurkey_ | :P |
kb9vqf | Would definitely help :) |
kb9vqf | That's another interesting question |
Xu_R | If I had money, I'd donate too :O |
kb9vqf | Are the preserving the history when they move to GIT? |
kb9vqf | *they |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: if I recall, yes |
kb9vqf | Oh, OK |
Xu_R | svn -> git migration keeps all revisions as svn:numbers, then from there on via GIT revisioning |
MutantTurkey_ | its actually simple |
MutantTurkey_ | to convert |
MutantTurkey_ | back and forth |
kb9vqf | I have just not been happy with GIT tools |
kb9vqf | In particular I am very angry at kernel.org's webgit |
MutantTurkey_ | what is the state of kde games? |
kb9vqf | They should work |
kb9vqf | :-/ |
MutantTurkey_ | confidence is key :D |
kb9vqf | I don't play very many games |
MutantTurkey_ | me neither |
Xu_R | OK Ok, I need sleep now. We trailed on this convo too long. We are awesome like that lol |
kb9vqf | Hehe |
MutantTurkey_ | did just get an chess app installed on my phone |
MutantTurkey_ | very useful in a boring situation |
Xu_R | Night! /me falls over and dies on the floor |
MutantTurkey_ | 3 hour bio *cough* |
MutantTurkey_ | Xu_R: cya man. |
MutantTurkey_ | ttyt |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey_: have fun? o_o night :) |
Xu_R|Away | ^ away message += epic lol. night. |
MutantTurkey_ | kb9vqf: odd. the network just closed on me :/ gotta start the svn co again |
kb9vqf | Now you know why I say anonsvn.kde.org stinks |
MutantTurkey_ | yeah :/ |
kb9vqf | run it in a loop |
MutantTurkey_ | I am going to make an (pathetic) attempt to make a nice theme :D |
MutantTurkey_ | gotta read old docs |
kb9vqf | Sounds good |
MutantTurkey_ | late night chili ftw |
MutantTurkey_ | damnit anon from kde keeps screwing up. |
MutantTurkey_ | my patience has worn thin, i'm off to bed. night |

Pikidalto | so it will be awhile before i can actually help with Trinity |
*Xu_R|School is struggling with the damn c++ random # generator... grr. | |
Pikidalto | anyways, gonna head to work early, nothing to do for a change, was about to setup my tde build environment when it failed |
kb9vqf | New website preview at http://trinity-beta.pearsoncomputing.net/ |
kb9vqf | Let me know what you think~1 |
kb9vqf | A number of links are broken until it is moved to production--just ignore them for now |
kb9vqf | :) |
TokRa | smth wrong with menu and logo positioning http://u.inga.lv/tde_pos1.png |
TokRa | on FF 3.6 |
kb9vqf | Hmmm |
kb9vqf | Thanks for the report |
kb9vqf | I'll bug MutantTurkey about it |
kb9vqf | Can you leave the screenshot up for a day or two? |
TokRa | sure |
*TokRa usually keeps the content for a long time if not forever when not asked to remove it earlier | |
kb9vqf | OK, thanks :) |
kb9vqf | How is the overall look and feel |
kb9vqf | ? |
kb9vqf | (execpting the glitches of course) |
TokRa | Is nice & good looking |
TokRa | I'd suggest to remove the border around images on http://trinity-beta.pearsoncomputing.net/screenshots.php |
kb9vqf | OK |
kb9vqf | Hang on |
*kb9vqf was thinking the same thing | |
*TokRa gave MutantTurkey the axample of integrating the HighSlide | |
kb9vqf | Done :) |
kb9vqf | HighSlide? |
TokRa | http://home.inga.lv/MutantTurkey/example.php |
kb9vqf | Ah |
kb9vqf | That would be nice |
Xu_R|Away | kb9vqf: Ilya has a patch from Novell on trinity-devel |
Xu_R|Away | might be good to post it |
kb9vqf | Yup, I noticed |
TokRa | kb9vqf: it's from http://highslide.com |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: Take a look at the website |
kb9vqf | Let us know what you think |
kb9vqf | this one: http://trinity-beta.pearsoncomputing.net/ |
Xu_R | saw it :D |
kb9vqf | Oh, OK |
Xu_R | looks like you got it from MutantTurkey, yea? looks good :D |
kb9vqf | That was fast |
kb9vqf | And yes |
kb9vqf | Needs some help apparently |
kb9vqf | But nothing too major |
Xu_R | ah. hey, I see my screenshot there! :P |
kb9vqf | Heh |
TokRa | Moved: http://u.inga.lv/MutantTurkey/example.php |
TokRa | My screenshots from a netbook: http://u.inga.lv/tde1.png http://u.inga.lv/tde2.png http://u.inga.lv/tde3.png |
*Xu_R has left #trinity-desktop | |
*Xu_R has joined #trinity-desktop | |
TokRa | Another little issue with the screenshot itself: I'd rather use PNG instead of medium quality JPG |
kb9vqf | Well, I guess we have to wait for MutantTurkey |
kb9vqf | I'll send him over the website again |
kb9vqf | I think we need a screenshot manager |
Xu_R | a php photo gallery, maybe? |
Xu_R | lightweight, flexible |
kb9vqf | I would like something where I can just drop screenshot files into a folder with a description text file |
kb9vqf | So yes :) |
kb9vqf | I also like TokRa's HighSlide |
kb9vqf | Seems MutantTurkey has a bit more work to do ;-) |
Xu_R | how about phpalbum? |
Xu_R | it seems that it doesn't require a database to use |
kb9vqf | FOSS? |
kb9vqf | And I really don't like some of the bugs that were "fixed" |
Xu_R | yes, but it seems to be a bit outdated D: |
kb9vqf | Arbitrary command execution? |
kb9vqf | Ugghhhh! |
kb9vqf | Don't think so :) |
Xu_R | yea, never mind. I'm just reading off the list of stuff I have from softaculous |
kb9vqf | OK |
Xu_R | oh, this looks better. gallery2.org |
Xu_R | no, gallery.menalto.com |
*Xu_R is already failing at reading | |
kb9vqf | Hmmm |
kb9vqf | More security fixes |
kb9vqf | :-P |
kb9vqf | What is so hard about just displaying an image from a file? |
TokRa | The "drop screenshot files into a folder with a description text file" can be easily integrated with some extra lines of php |
kb9vqf | Right |
kb9vqf | That's what I'm thinking |
kb9vqf | And then integrate HighSlide and it should be what I would want |
Xu_R | lol. everything's either too complicated or too buggy :P |
*kb9vqf just doesn't have the time to write the PHP himself | |
TokRa | I guess, there would be 2 files for 1 screenshot: the thumbnail and the big one? |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | I can run a cron job to update the small ones from the big ones |
*TokRa will write it down now | |
kb9vqf | That's easy enough |
kb9vqf | Do you want the website tarball? |
kb9vqf | To work from that is? |
TokRa | No need |
kb9vqf | OK |
Xu_R | eek, power surges |
kb9vqf | Fun |
kb9vqf | Where are you located again? |
kb9vqf | Out east? |
Xu_R | maryland |
Xu_R | we're having periodic power surges now |
kb9vqf | Ah |
Xu_R | >_< |
TokRa | kb9vqf: would you use another folder or another name for thumbnails? |
Xu_R | too windy :( |
kb9vqf | TokRa: I envision this: |
kb9vqf | screenshots/ |
kb9vqf | ./large |
kb9vqf | ./small |
kb9vqf | ./desc |
TokRa | emm, what's inside screenshots/desc/ ? |
kb9vqf | Text files |
TokRa | filename.jpg = filename.txt ? |
kb9vqf | So that large/0123.png has a description files of desc/0123.txt |
kb9vqf | Yes |
TokRa | got it :) |

Piki | kb9vqf, MutantTurkey on http://trinity-beta.pearsoncomputing.net/mailinglist.php, the RFEs link at the top leads to http://trinity-beta.pearsoncomputing.net/crfe, which returns a 404 not found error |
Piki | and the Patches link |
Piki | currently exploring the site, looks good, just a couple broken links |
MutantTurkey | Piki: holy crap didn't realize it was up |
Piki | yes, but looks like it wasn't moved to the main site yet |
Piki | MutantTurkey: i saw the link in the IRC logs from tbottu |
MutantTurkey | oh jeez i must have missed it. |
MutantTurkey | i didn't know tim was putting it online |
Piki | at least it isn't the main site ;-) but still there to see if it works for general consumption |
MutantTurkey | i don't think it looks quite like mine |
MutantTurkey | tim might have messed with the css. |
Piki | Forums link broken too, but that will probably fix when it's moved to the main stie |
MutantTurkey | oh he fixed it up |
MutantTurkey | nice nice |
MutantTurkey | yeah |
Piki | the stuff linked from the main site will probably be fixed when the new one is moved over |
MutantTurkey | yes |
MutantTurkey | it will. |
MutantTurkey | because the links are local |
Piki | yes |
MutantTurkey | yep |
Piki | one trink is to go on the server and symlink the stuff in the webroot from the main site to the webroot of the new. sometimes works, sometimes doesn't |
Piki | but of course the symlinks from the new have to be deleted before moving it over |
MutantTurkey | when we move it it won't matter |
Piki | yes, just a thought as something temporary for testing the new version |
MutantTurkey | meh who cares |
Piki | to keep people who find the the new one from complaining, and make sure the transition moves smoothly |
MutantTurkey | no one will know about it |
MutantTurkey | the transition should be seemless. literally copying files over, thatsi t |
Piki | they'll know about it if they look like the logs, tbottu announces them to those who join |
Piki | i'm a webmaster, sometimes the unxepected can come up when transitioning stuff, i've messed up arklinux.org because of the unexpected |
Piki | speaking of which, i haven't been visiting arklinux.org in awhile, and knowing our luck it's probably broke again even though nobody's touched it :-P (that's happened before) or at least we have some spambots to delete |
MutantTurkey | sorry i have did not realize it was in the /topic |
MutantTurkey | yes your arklinux website needs some serious work :P |
edakiri | Are you generating the site(s) from another markup or writing HTML directly? I'm trying some things to translate from markdown. |
Piki | MutantTurkey: like? |
Piki | ugh osuosl needs to get things straightened out, it's been months since i first emailed them about their mysql server |
Piki | MutantTurkey: personally i think arklinux.org needs a more consistent theming pattern, but i've not enough time to be creating one, if i mess one little thing up, the whole site goes boom, and with just two people to keep things in check, we're not always going to get it fixed right away |
MutantTurkey | edakiri: I wrote the website directly. very simple though |
*SpaceMint has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | edakiri: there is one simple news feed, primitive and in place until we get a real one also. everything else is very plain |
Piki | MutantTurkey: what does arklinux.org need done? |
MutantTurkey | the drupal logo? wtf. |
MutantTurkey | talk about looking unprofessional, it seams that your theme is some sort ofdrupal default |
MutantTurkey | content wise it is fine |
Piki | it's not a drupal default, it's a theme recommended to use from another user, it's a lot better than the default |
Piki | but like i said, i think we need to come up with a more consistent theme site-wide, just no time to do it |
MutantTurkey | I don't like the way it looks, but it is fine. i just think the drupal logo makes it look unfinished. |
Piki | and i can't find where to change the logo |
MutantTurkey | and what are you so busy doing :P you seem to troll around here plenty |
MutantTurkey | I have "no" time either, but i manage to relax 24/7 xD |
Piki | i have a constantly changing work schedule (working today in a couple hours), but i always work the same four days. i have one day each week for an appointment. two days that "might" (but rarely) be free, plus a never ending supply of chores. most of my visits to the computer, although frequent, don't allow enough time to do stuff, and i have a lot of computer stuff i need to do anyway |
edakiri | For translating markdown sites, I've tried webgen, ikiwiki, gitit/darcsit. None of them I found suitable. Next up: nanoc. For editing HTML, Kompozer is the nicest I've found. |
MutantTurkey | edakiri: I'm not very familiar with markdown really, for editing html i use vim or geany. |
Piki | hopefully this week, without a hard disk to save stuff, i'll have more time to dedicate to doing some site-related stuff, but once i get a new hard disk, my projects will re-continue |
MutantTurkey | Piki: (: |
MutantTurkey | what kind of drive do you need? i could easily mail you one. |
edakiri | MutantTurkey: I use geany for other things. Nice as a fast text editor. I edit files in Markdown format in geany. It highlights them nicely. |
*field_it has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | edakiri: I use it primarily for programming, seeing as vim doesn't really work for me to program with. |
MutantTurkey | I like to have mouse support while programming, it is very important to me, and modal mode, while i love it. doesn't fit my style to program in |
Piki | MutantTurkey: mainly a laptop sata with a huge capacity, but i can get my own. i'll be visiting the local radioshack and a nearby best buy |
MutantTurkey | newegg buddy |
MutantTurkey | never buy from a real store. |
Piki | will save up for a desktop sata afterward |
Piki | MutantTurkey: why not? |
MutantTurkey | Piki: they mark up prices much higher |
MutantTurkey | It is cheeper to buy online |
MutantTurkey | as for a desktop drive, my reccomendation is the drive i have |
Piki | even with shipping costs? |
MutantTurkey | yes. |
MutantTurkey | usuallly less than ten bucks |
MutantTurkey | sometimes free |
Piki | i'd be getting rush-delivery if i order online |
Piki | that tends to be a bit more expensive |
Piki | but the sooner i get it the better |
MutantTurkey | ups 3 day delivery is cheap and fast. |
MutantTurkey | Piki: how large? |
Piki | i tend to overnight the important stuff, and being that the laptop is my primary form of computing, i'd be overnighting |
MutantTurkey | how large |
MutantTurkey | of a drive |
MutantTurkey | $1.99 shipping, 40 bucks. great drive http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136073 |
Piki | MutantTurkey: minimum 500GB, larger if possible, i'll have an extra "emergency linux install" for backup and for when i need something i know is stable, plus an installation for development |
Piki | the larger the better |
MutantTurkey | dude. 500gigs you could install every distro on the planet. |
MutantTurkey | 500 gigs is alot of space :P |
MutantTurkey | people i think don't need as much as they suppose. I mean the standard install comes with 320+ gigs. thats alot of storage that rarely gets used. |
Piki | but that wouldn't allow for installing any extras, or holding the entire repository for a repo AND several svn checkouts AND some of the stuff i want to develop if i had every distro |
MutantTurkey | 500 gigs. |
MutantTurkey | 500 gigs. |
MutantTurkey | it would allow you to install tons of crap lol |
MutantTurkey | that is like 62 dvds. at full quality. 8 gigs a pop. |
Piki | MutantTurkey: i had 300GB, and i was pretty close to getting that full, 80% when it crashed, and still hadn't compiled tde |
MutantTurkey | D: |
Piki | i couldn't backup any of the source stuff or repos i had, just the bare bones necessary files, so it will be quite awhile before i get everything back |
Piki | and i was lucky i even had a backup, sounded like the head was scraping on the platters when it suddenly crashed, and i couldn't even do any kind of hard disk test (self-test or otherwise) |
MutantTurkey | ouch |
Piki | so 500GB minimum, larger if possible |
MutantTurkey | I do reccommend western digital, I like them alot, they are cheap and reliable. |
Piki | i've gotten recomendations for seagate |
MutantTurkey | blech. |
Piki | but yeah, with overnighting the delivery, i'd think it would be around the price of the stores |
Piki | MutantTurkey: ? |
MutantTurkey | i doubt it tbh |
MutantTurkey | plus you get a much wider selection online |
MutantTurkey | 100 bucks, a 2Tb 32mb cache + free shipping :) |
MutantTurkey | i mean, online has a ton of different deals and such |
MutantTurkey | you go to the store, maybe one or two different brands. a few drives |
Piki | at least i wouldn't have to worry about sending it back and waiting if something happens, just take it right back to the store |
Piki | just realized that i need the physical dimensions of the drive |
MutantTurkey | all hard drives are compatible... lol |
MutantTurkey | 2.5" or 3.5" |
Piki | i want to make sure it fits into the computer, not whether or not it's compatible |
MutantTurkey | no |
MutantTurkey | 2.5" inches |
Piki | i know they're all compatible |
MutantTurkey | they are all the same size. |
MutantTurkey | designed to fit into the same slots. |
Piki | so why are there two different sizes? |
MutantTurkey | one is laptop one is desktop |
MutantTurkey | that is why |
Piki | i'll be shopping around the next few days on newegg, tigerdirect, and the local computer shops, find myself the best deal possible |

MutantTurkey | doda: more work is done via mailing list. |
doda | i have an debian laptop, currently installing trinity on it |
MutantTurkey | good luck! |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: or doing hw... >_>" |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: lol. gotta do my english paper D: |
Xu_R | D: |
Xu_R | was gonna slack off all day, then my teacher posted more work online due tmrw... |
MutantTurkey | ouchers |
MutantTurkey | doda: let me know if you run into problems |
doda | aha :), i will |
MutantTurkey | which you may. (haven't used debian with tde) ran into a bunch of arch packaging problems but thats not related |
doda | will install it on arch too |
MutantTurkey | yeah, not stable at all yet :P |
MutantTurkey | David Rankin is running through it though. |
MutantTurkey | kaitocracy has provided space for a temporary server |
doda | MutantTurkey: arch packaging problems or ? |
MutantTurkey | doda: yeah a bit |
MutantTurkey | having trouble build with some new libraries i think also was a problem. |
MutantTurkey | I've started to move them to the AUR though |
doda | aha, i saw :) |
MutantTurkey | yep |
MutantTurkey | having trouble building trinity-kdebase though, it's odd since david seems to be able to build them. |
MutantTurkey | haven't gotten any follow up on that yet, was away all weekend |
doda | cmake port is not arch specific right? |
MutantTurkey | distro agnostic |
MutantTurkey | cmake port is going to help us out a ton later. |
MutantTurkey | samelian is heading up that. |
doda | great |
doda | i use kde now, but it has its quircks |
doda | and gnome3 transition will bring more folkes too |
MutantTurkey | I think so. |
MutantTurkey | if Trinity gets momentum that would be excellent. |
doda | aha |
doda | and a qt4 port :) |
MutantTurkey | yes. |
MutantTurkey | well, like i said it is under way |
doda | aha :) |
MutantTurkey | http://trinity-beta.pearsoncomputing.net/wiki/bin/view/Developers/RoadMap |
doda | great, a pretty sane roadmap :) |
MutantTurkey | hopefully. |
MutantTurkey | I am hoping that having Arch users on our side will help out. we are quite the best community |
MutantTurkey | we tend to uh, get shit done. |
doda | :) |
MutantTurkey | night all o/ |

Piki | wow, this computer's got me scared. i went through my usual struggle to boot an outdated live cd, it decided to boot with a ramdisk size of 96669 (the three 6's have me scared) |
doda | :D |
Piki | doda: new face here, how's it going? |
doda | i'm installing trinity on a debian squeeze :) |
doda | longtime kde user |
Piki | me too, unfortunately my hard disk is dead, and i need to do some tde packages for my distro |
Piki | on the upside, the live cd i'm on used kde 3.5.10, better than kde4 |
doda | i use kde4 |
doda | but it doesn't go well |
doda | with old systems i guess |
Piki | my laptop was made late 2009, 64bit dual core with 4gb ram, should do well with kde4, but it doesn't |
doda | gpu? |
Piki | and everything in it is f\oss except the wireless, so it should definitely work |
Piki | it's an intel, don't know the exact model |
Piki | i can do an lspci for it |
doda | it should work |
doda | distro? |
Piki | Ark Linux |
doda | ark |
doda | dunno about that |
doda | but i think they are lingering |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: OK |
kb9vqf | Just didn't want anything musunderstood on the public mailing list ;-) |
Piki | doda: i know they're alive, i'm their webmaster |
Piki | we've been stuggling quite a bit with a few things, and kde4 is one of them |
doda | Piki: never really used it |
Piki | we're not particularly fond of HAL, our head dev did a custom hotplugger, but couldn't get kde4 patched, plus a new init system (just needs boot splash compatibility AFAIK), package manager troubles, and waiting for me to package tde in my limited spare time, even when i'm here i have too much going to be much use |
doda | why hal in kde ? |
doda | 4.6 doesn't need it |
Piki | doda: Ark is the first distro to work on any machine i put it on, couldn't get ubuntu, debian, opensuse, fedora........ |
doda | ? |
doda | how you mean |
doda | any machine |
Piki | doda: dunno, our head dev said they were using hal and he couldn't patch it to use his hotplugger |
Piki | doda: i tried a bunch of linux distros on a bunch of different computers, Ark was the only one that actually worked |
doda | wierd |
Piki | in fact, on the laptop i had at the time i started linux (2007), it had an old ATI video card that was fully compatible with the f\oss driver, but ark was the only one that used the f\oss driver, the others wanted the proprietary one |
doda | yep, which sucked |
Piki | kept sticking me with a CLI, and having come from windows, i was afraid of a command line |
doda | i started with mandriva > ubuntu > archlunux |
Piki | i think it was a 7500 model, the f\oss driver supports anything below 9600 |
doda | aha |
doda | and now, on ark you are trying kde4? |
Piki | mandriva seemed to boot fine, never really explored it, arch somehow left out dhcp stuff (i installed all the networking stuff i could find), and pclos booted, but dragged in unnecessary dependencies and slowed down considerably |
Piki | doda: we are going to do a release with KDE4 and TDE |
Piki | we said with our 2007.1 release we'd do kde4, did 2008.1 with kde3, so now we're stuck doing kde4, but we had it, so we decided to do both kde4 and tde |
doda | arch installs everything needed for dhcp |
Piki | but we had it = but we hate it |
doda | Piki: any more info on the web ?, the blog is old |
Piki | doda: not on my system it didn't, i had no dhcp |
doda | net install? |
Piki | not in /sbin /bin /usr/sbin or /usr/bin |
Piki | yes |
doda | you didn't select some package |
Piki | and i made sure to include all the networking stuff i could find when doing the netinstall |
Piki | doda: arklinux.org is our official site |
Piki | and we have a list of recent package builds on identi.ca and twitter |
doda | tnx |
Piki | everything is being built for dockyard-devel, which is development |
doda | its conectiva based ? |
doda | like pclinuxos ? |
Piki | no |
Piki | it's nothing based |
doda | yeah |
doda | but apt-rpm |
Piki | we are entirely independent |
Piki | doda: rpm5, madriva only recently ported apt-rpm ro rpm5, we were trying to port zypper to rpm5 |
doda | aha |
Piki | we are going to try using mandriva's apt-rpm soon |
doda | didn't know mandriva used apt-rpm |
Piki | 2008.1 uses rpm4 and apt-rpm |
Piki | not sure if the repose for 2008.1/dockyard are working though, people have complained about that |
Piki | i uploaded some repodata to the mirrors, but i can't test it, my hard disk died soon after and just before that, virtualbox somehow broke itself, so couldn't install 2008.1 to check |
doda | http://wiki.arklinux.org/Things_To_Consider_When_Purchasing_Bike_Insurance_8841 found this clicking on random page :( |
Piki | eh? i've not been seeing any recent pages being created on the repos |
doda | this is a random page, guess its old |
Piki | i check almost every week |
Piki | according to the history it's february 9 2011 |
Piki | so it's pretty recent |
Piki | kinda wandering why it didn't show that on any of my checks |
doda | spam .. |
doda | nice that you develop so much now |
Piki | yeah |
Piki | gonna delete it |
Piki | the only thing i don't like about mediawiki is that i have to go through the database to delete users, i can't delete them through mediawiki |
Piki | otherwise i really like mediawiki |
doda | mysql? |
Piki | yes |
doda | thats stupid :D |
Piki | seems everything that requires database access is guarenteed to use mysql |
doda | yep, thats fine, but not having user management ui is stupid |
Piki | doda: i know, mediawiki works great, it's even what wikipedia uses, but i'd think with such a large project using it, they'd at least include that one small feature, make it easier to delete spam accounts... |
Piki | actually, i should search their plugins, see if they have one for user management |
Piki | argh, just pulled up a list of pages in our wiki, there's a bunch of spam there |
Piki | and they all have the same MO |
Piki | but i've already dropped the users, so it shouldn't come back any time soon |
doda | Piki: i think you should upgrade mediawiki :) |
Piki | hmm? i did first week of february... they've made another release? |
Piki | 1.16.2, we should have that version already |
doda | Piki: plugins something ? |
Piki | the only two plugins we have are openid and to authenticate through the forum, which has some anti-spam stuff already, but of course can't detect everything |
Piki | both plugins are up-to-date, i checked last night |
Piki | i should probably disable openid, we don't have it on the forum, i don't think there's a mybb plugin for some reason |
Piki | doda: we should probably discuss ark in #arklinux , kb9vqf is probably getting annoyed with all the spam about ark lol |
Piki | and anybody who's interested can join us there anyway |

Xu_R|School | kb9vqf: I understand :) |
Xu_R|School | hmm... it's not good if there's a big funnel cloud above and there's a tornado watch, right? >_> |
Piki | our thunder storm from last night might be moving toward you |
*MutantTurkey_ has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey_ | o/ |
Xu_R|School | D: |
Xu_R|School | hold on, bbl |
Piki | MutantTurkey_: random thunderstorm last night while i was walking home |
MutantTurkey_ | Piki: me too D: |
MutantTurkey_ | actually when i got right out of my friends car this morning, it started downpouring |
Piki | Xu_R has a tornado warning and a funnel cloud |
Piki | random mobo beep for no reason |
MutantTurkey_ | hahaha |
MutantTurkey_ | i hear it will be a bad storm |
Piki | oh yeah, my mother knocked over her computer and now it won't boot, it tells her to insert her windows install disc and choose a repair. her computer has no install, just a recovery, which is supposed to be able to detect her windows install and repair it. it detects nothing |
Piki | no strange noises, i'm thinking the head hit a sport with windows on it but is otherwise ok |
MutantTurkey_ | is tokra around? |
Piki | she won't let me use a linux live cd to recover her files free, she'd rather pay the geek squad to recover her files |
Piki | MutantTurkey_: haven't seen him |
MutantTurkey_ | D: |
MutantTurkey_ | he is working on the website as well now, but i haven't seen him around so i can't talk with him |
Piki | have his email or is he on the mailing list? |
MutantTurkey_ | maybe. |
MutantTurkey_ | It is time to put the website in a svn tree i think. |
Piki | lol i've seen text messages using "svn" to me "seven', got me confused when i saw that, "what? you want to commit a BK whopper to svn???" |
Piki | me = mean |
Piki | of course the other person didn't know anything about svn, so he got confused |
MutantTurkey_ | hahaha |

*kb9vqf thought Xu_R was ingested by a hungry tornado | |
Piki | lol |
Piki | kb9vqf: what was wrong with tbottu last night? |
kb9vqf | I have no idea |
kb9vqf | Process was running normally |
kb9vqf | Could have been a faulty server connection |
kb9vqf | *IRC server connection that is |
Piki | yeah |
kb9vqf | Personally I'm amazed that IRC works as well as it does, knowing its network structure :-/ |
Piki | if people were willing to use jabber/gtalk, i'd say we should setup a jabber chat room |
Piki | but i doubt even some of the gmail people know they can do jabber |
Piki | and not everyone will want to create an account just for one support request |
*kb9vqf has enough chat in his life already | |
Piki | but all it takes is on ddos and we're all separated and unable to help the newbs |
*kb9vqf wonders where samelian is | |
Piki | kb9vqf: i'm thinking replace the irc with jabber, unless you've got other places on irc you need to be? |
Piki | kb9vqf: hmm, haven't seen him around lately |
kb9vqf | I like Konversation |
kb9vqf | Don't want to give it up |
Piki | yeah, i like konversation myself, just can't use it atm |
kb9vqf | Also if I don't like the replacement you might not see me again on chat anywhere ;-) |
Piki | darn hard disk, was about to start cmaking tde :-( |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: PFFT, nah. :P |
kb9vqf | Thought you were observing a funnel cloud? |
Xu_R | yup |
*kb9vqf wishes he were so lucky | |
Xu_R | it's still there -.-" |
kb9vqf | :) |
kb9vqf | Not a real one I take it? |
Xu_R | well, that tornado watch is still in effect, and the radar shows that it's a real one... |
Piki | kb9vqf: you guys may not see any testing or packaging from me for over a month, the cat needs to go to the vet, and my mother may need a hard disk for her computer for work (and she's afraid to let me recover her files for free with my linux live cd) |
kb9vqf | It's OK |
Piki | i'm still looking for deals on newegg and tigerdirect, and i have yet to visit the local best buy to see what they have |
*K`zan has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: as for jabber, whatever. sorry for being late. that is a bad idea. |
kb9vqf | Don't worry I decided not to use Jabber already |
MutantTurkey | :) |
MutantTurkey | good |
kb9vqf | I like IRC :) |
MutantTurkey | IRC is the universally accepted method of real time chat for foss/linux sutff |
MutantTurkey | exactly my thoughts as well. |
kb9vqf | Fairly reliable and ubiquitous |
MutantTurkey | I think today i will take a stab at some cmake work. |
kb9vqf | Sounds good! |
Xu_R | what? what is this jabber talk? no! no! no! no! lol |
kb9vqf | Nope |
kb9vqf | No Jabber |
MutantTurkey | doda: run into any trouble? |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: phew, good ;) |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: I'm not giving up IRC |
kb9vqf | I can't prevent people from using Jabber, but I personally won't use or endorse it |
MutantTurkey | haha. nothing wrong with Jabber, but i love me some irc. |
Xu_R | :D |
kb9vqf | Right |
kb9vqf | Better alternative and all that |
kb9vqf | More widely accepted/known |
Xu_R | yup yup |
Xu_R | ughh.. tired. ima head up and take a nap. just spam me like crazy if you need me :) |
Xu_R | although i'm sure tbottu will kick if you spam too much... |

Piki | hi |
MutantTurkey | heya |
Piki | hi MutantTurkey, any more radiation today? |
doda | MutantTurkey: i got tired of waiting and will contiunue downloading in 2 hours |
doda | on 1fst of the mont they reset the speed |
MutantTurkey | doda: you are limited for bandwidth? D: |
MutantTurkey | Piki: radiation? no I've been fine for a while. |
Piki | MutantTurkey: i thought you were a mutated turkeY? |
doda | MutantTurkey: yep, it slows down after 50 gb |
MutantTurkey | Piki: not literally ._. |
MutantTurkey | doda: jeez, I'd be way past that. if you don't mind, where are you from |
doda | macedonia |
*MutantTurkey googles macedonia | |
MutantTurkey | ah above greece |
Piki | MutantTurkey: t'was a joke ;-) |
MutantTurkey | Piki: I know, but I get very annoyed :P my name is the butt of most jokes. |
MutantTurkey | every time i join #ubuntu-us-pa, they go "gobble gobble" |
doda | :D |
Piki | i'd be way past 50gb, closer to 100gb |
Piki | MutantTurkey: when i went around as Pikidalto, i got made fun of for being raw meat |
MutantTurkey | :P |
Piki | apparently it's similar the the words for raw meat in spanish |
MutantTurkey | doda: well let me know when you do! |
MutantTurkey | i used to go as just calvin much easier :P |
doda | MutantTurkey: aha |
Piki | if i went around as Kris, people would think i'm a girl (Kristine etc), and too many Kris' any |
doda | actually, doda is my surname |
doda | wiki it :D |
MutantTurkey | nice :) |
MutantTurkey | I've settled on mutantturkey, a middle school nick name |
Piki | i'm surprised people don't make of me for Piki (you're so picky about your linux distros!) |
Piki | doda: unless you're 24 hours behind us (it's 4:32PM on March 1), it should be the 1st already |
doda | here its 22:33 |
doda | Piki: where are you? |
Piki | PIttsburgh, PA, near the east coast of USA |
doda | so 17 hours difference |
doda | no 18 |
Piki | apparently facebook thinks i'm having trouble getting on, but i haven't had any trouble |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: i am quite lost. It looks like there isn't a "standard" way that has been setup for trinity/applications/ David has a pdf of what is converted, but they are pretty much all different :/ |
MutantTurkey | and frankly the cmake page on the wiki is zero help. |
Piki | a doctor gave a patient 6 months to live. he couldn't pay the bill, so the doctor gave him 6 more |
MutantTurkey | :p |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Sorry, I don't know how to do CMake myself |
kb9vqf | I wish I knew where samelian was :-/ |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: D: this is ridiculous. I mean it is fairly comprehensable. but they are so unorginized, each one is different |
kb9vqf | That's not good |
MutantTurkey | this is just in the applications arena |
kb9vqf | All I can suggest is to read the CMake docs :-P |
MutantTurkey | D: |
MutantTurkey | that is all fine and well |
kb9vqf | Maybe David Rankin can offer some advice as well |
*kb9vqf is not sure | |
MutantTurkey | but I assume there is some specific trinity CMake stuff also |
MutantTurkey | I will put a post on the mailing list, requesting a informal guide" maybe? |
kb9vqf | Sure |
kb9vqf | I know samelian tried to put the Trinity specific stuff on the Wiki |
kb9vqf | But it is far from a how-to guide |
kb9vqf | Unfortuately I don't have much time to devote to this project for the next few weeks either |
kb9vqf | Been spending too long as it is :) |
MutantTurkey | of course |
Piki | i'd help if i could, don't know cmake though |
MutantTurkey | I haven't seen samelian around have you? maybe i can ask him a bit. |
MutantTurkey | Piki: me neither. it's not so complicated though |
*samelian has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Piki | |
Piki | samelian: there you are~ |
MutantTurkey | samelian: hey there |
Piki | samelian: MutantTurkey needed you |
Piki | cmake troubles of some sort |
MutantTurkey | Piki: i can speak for myself thanks :P |
Piki | MutantTurkey: didn't realize you were here... |
MutantTurkey | :) |
samelian | Piki: yes, i'm here :) |
samelian | sorry for my long silence, I'm pretty busy these days |
MutantTurkey | samelian: it is alright. |
Piki | samelian: i don't know if you saw on the mailing list, but my hard disk went bad |
Piki | and now my cat needs a vet, and my mother needs a hard disk |
samelian | Piki: yes, I still watching lists |
MutantTurkey | samelian: I was looking to get started on helping out with cmake, anywhere you'd like me to start? |
Piki | samelian: may be awhile before i can get to cmake |
samelian | i see |
samelian | MutantTurkey: you can try to continue my unfinished works |
MutantTurkey | what specifically? |
samelian | for example, right now I want to port kruler, because I need it :) |
samelian | if you want, we can work on it together |
MutantTurkey | kruler. I can do that. |
MutantTurkey | are there any specific trinity things i need to have? or any example i should look at? |
samelian | for kruler, no |
samelian | because all things are prepared by me for kdeutils |
MutantTurkey | what about library paths and such? |
MutantTurkey | ah |
samelian | good, you have a svn copy of trinity? |
MutantTurkey | I have just the applications area, I can copy more, but anonsvn.kde is very bad |
samelian | ah, kruler is part of kdegraphics |
MutantTurkey | ah |
samelian | ok, this is prepared too |
samelian | ok, try to get kdegraphics |
MutantTurkey | I will get it now. |
MutantTurkey | I want to get kdebase first though |
samelian | you haven't kdelibs installed? |
MutantTurkey | I do |
MutantTurkey | I just don't have the svn tree |
MutantTurkey | samelian: okay now i have kdebase i see the templates |
samelian | good |
samelian | wait, I will commit cmake files for kdegraphics |
samelian | until then, get kdegraphics svn tree as well |
kb9vqf | Hey, you're alive samelian :) |
samelian | yet :) |
samelian | sorry for silence, I'm busy these days |
kb9vqf | It's OK |
kb9vqf | I understand |
samelian | I will start mentoring MutantTurkey :) |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Look who's back ^^^ |
kb9vqf | OK |
MutantTurkey | okay |
MutantTurkey | will do :) |
MutantTurkey | samelian: I have the kdegraphics tree now |
samelian | ok, I commited cmake support for kdegraphics |
samelian | checkout it again |
MutantTurkey | so how do i do that? |
MutantTurkey | svn pull? |
samelian | svn up |
samelian | svn update |
MutantTurkey | okay updated |
samelian | good, check if you have cmake files in it |
MutantTurkey | i have a directory called "cmake" |
MutantTurkey | no CMakeLists.txt or anything though |
samelian | ok, this is inherited from kde-common |
MutantTurkey | okay |
Piki | btw, while i'm working on my laptop, i'll grab one for my desktop along with more RAM, so i'll have fewer excuses to help with tde svn |
samelian | try again, there is a little delay until svn tree is actually update |
samelian | updated |
MutantTurkey | samelian: yeah it seems so. |
MutantTurkey | there we go |
samelian | good |
MutantTurkey | kview/cmake.... |
samelian | open main CMakeLists.txt |
MutantTurkey | okay |
samelian | yes, kview was ported by be before |
MutantTurkey | :) okay |
MutantTurkey | okay I've opened it. |
samelian | now, try to guess what you need to do for porting kruler |
MutantTurkey | so to build another directory, I just add tde_conditional_add_subdirectory( BUILD_KRULER kruler) |
MutantTurkey | ? |
samelian | yes, but be careful, is now enough |
samelian | yes have a section ##### user requested modules #################### |
samelian | add option( BUILD_KRULER "Build kruler" ${BUILD_ALL} ) |
samelian | tell me when you done |
samelian | then, you have a section named ##### kdemultimedia directories ######################## |
samelian | it is wrong, copied from kdemultimedia |
samelian | I replaced it now with ##### kdegraphics directories ################### |
samelian | note that all section labels have exactly 49 characters, please keep it as is |
Piki | >.< |
Piki | doncha hate those? |
samelian | hhe |
samelian | kb9vqf: Rankin is right, your IP is not properly reversed anymore |
samelian | I noticed this few days ago |
kb9vqf | samelian? |
samelian | your email server's IP have no more reverse DNS |
kb9vqf | Great |
kb9vqf | That would be my ISP |
*MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Piki | hi MutantTurkey |
kb9vqf | samelian: It looks like the reverse dns is valid |
kb9vqf | At least here |
samelian | wait, will check |
kb9vqf | I used http://www.dnsgoodies.com/ |
kb9vqf | on 74.84.118.181 |
kb9vqf | And I get pearsoncomputing.net |
Piki | + |
samelian | yes, now it's ok |
kb9vqf | I didn't do anything |
kb9vqf | ?!?!??? |
kb9vqf | Must have been a DNS glitch upstream from me |
samelian | few days ago was not ok |
kb9vqf | Huh |
kb9vqf | Well, if it acts up again please poke me |
samelian | sure |
kb9vqf | I have an internal system that is very well isolated from the Internet so sometimes I do not see these glitches unless someone lets me know about them :) |
*Piki pinches kb9vqf | |
kb9vqf | ? |
Piki | kb9vqf: you said to poke you, so i decided to pinch instead :-P |
kb9vqf | Oh.... |
kb9vqf | There's a problem? |
Piki | nope, just because i felt like it |
*kb9vqf slaps Piki's hand | |
kb9vqf | :) |
*Piki cowers | |
*samelian use google translate to find what "pinch" mean :) | |
Piki | samelian: when you squeeze your skin really hard between your fingers |
samelian | yes, google translate kindly explain me :) |
Piki | google does everything these days |
samelian | yeap |
samelian | it scaring me :) |
kb9vqf | Kind of scary IMHO |
kb9vqf | You beat me to it :-P |
samelian | haha |
Piki | even social networking (like myspace or facebook), they call it orkut |
*kb9vqf remembers that absolute power corrupts absolutely... | |
samelian | Asimov? |
kb9vqf | John Dalberg-Acton |
kb9vqf | The full quote is "All power tends to corrupt and absolute power corrupts absolutely" |
samelian | i confused the expression with another one, I guess |
kb9vqf | Easy to do, especially since English is not your native tongue |
kb9vqf | :) |
samelian | hehe |
samelian | bleah, I think I was confused it with "Violence is the last refuge of the incompetent. ", I think |
Piki | kb9vqf: i think you've very well described our government |
kb9vqf | I would hazard a guess that the quote describes most (if not all) governments around the world :-P |
Piki | but yeah, people let themselves become corrupted all too easily |
samelian | Piki: you must try Romanian government :) |
kb9vqf | Piki: That's the real problem |
kb9vqf | You are right |
kb9vqf | Ever read "Lord of the Rings" |
kb9vqf | ? |
samelian | corrupt and stupid, at same time |
kb9vqf | DMCA anyone? :-{ |
samelian | what is DMCA? |
samelian | ah |
Piki | samelian: a government that goes to war against someone and forces our government on them, is seriously corrupt. look at our previous president ;-) |
Piki | kb9vqf: nope, i saw movie one, too violent |
Piki | not enough entertainment |
kb9vqf | DMCA == Digital Millenium Copyright Act |
kb9vqf | Piki: The book is much better |
samelian | Piki: US is a global power, is more equal than anothers :) |
samelian | i'm pretty sure that US government is more prefferable than others |
Piki | samelian: not for long, seems that we are loosing our rights all the time, i once heard a comedian describe our Bill of Rights as a Bill of Temporary Priveleges |
samelian | hehe |
Piki | i'm sure if a US government official were in here right now, he'd shut us down immediately |
Piki | yet we're supposed to have Freedom of Speech |
MutantTurkey | net split or something? |
samelian | freedom of speech is not very usefull if they ignore what you says :) |
*kb9vqf does remind everyone that he resides in the USA and that this channel is logged | |
samelian | haha |
kb9vqf | I don't want any trouble :) |
samelian | remove logs :) |
Piki | kb9vqf: harry potter too, and eragon |
Piki | kb9vqf: be lucky they don't read it ;-) |
MutantTurkey | harry potter! |
MutantTurkey | love the books, saw all the movies opening night. |
kb9vqf | Just saying please be careful with too much political stuff :) |
Piki | kb9vqf: this is nothing compared to what's out there ;-) but yeah, we do need to be careful, could spark a big argument |
samelian | kb9vqf: is pretty scarry if a US citizen need to censure it self |
MutantTurkey | samelian: I have been working on the port |
kb9vqf | Well, Internet free speech is != normal face-to-face free speech |
kb9vqf | Not here anyway |
MutantTurkey | the cmake for kruler |
samelian | MutantTurkey: at what point you are now? |
MutantTurkey | hmmm I have run into a problem with arch, I can't seem to find kde-config, what path is that? |
Piki | kb9vqf: yep, free speech on the internet is a bit more liberal, kinda hard to censor the 'net |
samelian | Piki: you're US citizen too? |
MutantTurkey | I am |
Piki | samelian: yep |
MutantTurkey | also a swiss citizen when i am 18 |
samelian | aha :) |
kb9vqf | Piki: Just because it can't be censored does not mean you are not responsible for what is said ;-) |
kb9vqf | There's the major point of distinction |
samelian | these national security things are scare me pretty much |
kb9vqf | Anyway, back on topic now.... |
kb9vqf | :) |
Piki | kb9vqf: i know |
samelian | in Romania we have't these kind of rules |
Piki | anyways, any sites beside newegg and tigerdirect that i can look on for a new hard disk? a trustworthy one? |
MutantTurkey | newegg. |
MutantTurkey | use it. |
Piki | besides that |
MutantTurkey | why bother? |
Piki | MutantTurkey: i want to make sure i get a good deal |
samelian | MutantTurkey: you don't answer me, at what point you are with cmake? |
MutantTurkey | samelian: sorry, I am stuck with some problem. unable to find kde-config :[ |
Piki | MutantTurkey: when you have no money, saving it can be extremely critical |
MutantTurkey | I think it is an ENV variable |
MutantTurkey | Piki: have a job? and yes i agree. I have no money |
samelian | kde-config is in trinity bin path |
MutantTurkey | okay thankyou |
MutantTurkey | what variable is that? |
Piki | MutantTurkey: yes, but they don't pay worth crap |
MutantTurkey | D: |
samelian | MutantTurkey: i'm not sure in your case, you have kdebase installed? |
Piki | they have me doing more work for a $0.28 pay cute |
Piki | cut* |
MutantTurkey | samelian: yes. it is /opt/trinity |
MutantTurkey | Piki: what why? |
Piki | and i have to deal with more crap |
samelian | the, look for kde-config in /opt/trinity/bin |
MutantTurkey | samelian: it is there, but I don't have the variable set. |
samelian | what the hell, i'm the richest man on this channel? :)) |
MutantTurkey | so Cmake can't find it. |
samelian | set PATH to point to it |
MutantTurkey | okay thanks! |
Piki | MutantTurkey: dunno, i was supposed to be sales, they had me people greet, never let me do anything else despite my begging, then switched me to maintenance (cleaning the store) and cut my pay, and i now have to deal with stupid customers and old supplies, and the managers are saying that the more safe practices that everyone on maintenance uses are unsafe and that we should change |
MutantTurkey | D: |
Piki | i'm hoping they'll move me back, my old department is reoppening soon with the spring (i was in the garden center) |
Piki | and this time i'll be more persistent in learning stuff |
MutantTurkey | samelian:error, unknown cmake command "tde_add_kdeinit_executable" do i need to include something? |
samelian | nope, you must have it |
samelian | how you run cmake? |
MutantTurkey | cmake CMakeFiles.txt |
samelian | is not correct |
Piki | even in my old position i had no money, my cell phone and internet cost a lot, and i can't even afford to move out |
samelian | create a directory in /tmp, for example |
Piki | MutantTurkey: build outside the source, e.g. mkdir /home/build && cmake /path/to/source |
samelian | mkdir /tmp/kdegraphics.build; cd /tmp/kdegraphics.build; cmake /path/to/source |
Piki | don't include CMakeLists.txt or anything, just the path to the source |
MutantTurkey | oh okay |
Piki | yeah, and cd to the build dir too |
MutantTurkey | hmmm that is not working D: |
samelian | why not? |
MutantTurkey | I says intall FILEs given no DESTINATION |
samelian | please paste somewhere your CMakeLists.txt |
MutantTurkey | it is definitely wrong :P |
samelian | for sure :) |
samelian | Piki: but what happens, you can't find a job in IT? |
MutantTurkey | http://ix.io/1vb |
samelian | and main CMakeLists? |
MutantTurkey | hmmm? |
MutantTurkey | oh okay |
Piki | samelian: not without college, and college isn't cheap. the community college screwed me over big time too, so no one will accept me now |
MutantTurkey | http://ix.io/1vc |
MutantTurkey | Piki: why not? community college is great |
Piki | MutantTurkey: not here, none of the teachers knew their materials at all, the entire class would get confused, every time, every class, every semester |
Piki | so now my gpa dropped like a rock |
samelian | Piki: hmm, I haven't a college too, but here seems that is not a big deal |
samelian | MutantTurkey: paste the exactly error too |
Piki | samelian: here in america, nobody hires unless they see that you have an education |
samelian | bleah |
Piki | regardless of how smart or experienced you are |
samelian | you can't start your own bussiness? |
Piki | and for that, a college diploma is required |
MutantTurkey | samelian: yeah it is true |
MutantTurkey | http://ix.io/1vc |
Piki | samelian: not without a loan, and i can't get that without a diploma, and my credit is bad because i was messed with by two banks and a credit union |
MutantTurkey | samelian: i love love love my community college ( I am in 2nd semster now ) greatest place ever. |
Piki | MutantTurkey: which one is that? |
MutantTurkey | or rather Piki ^^ |
samelian | MutantTurkey: you pasted me main cmakelists |
MutantTurkey | Montgomery County Community College |
MutantTurkey | samelian: hmmm? you asked me to i thought |
Piki | MutantTurkey: and then he asked for the error |
Piki | MutantTurkey: don't think we have them here, we have CCAC, only one i know of in the area |
samelian | MutantTurkey: nope, last time I asked for exact error |
MutantTurkey | Piki: CCAC? in pittsburgh? |
Piki | MutantTurkey: yes |
MutantTurkey | you are right in my old neck of the woods |
MutantTurkey | !! :D :D :D |
MutantTurkey | yo next time i am out in pittsburgh. trinity partyy. |
Piki | it's in allegeny county |
samelian | Piki: but an RHCE is not enough? |
MutantTurkey | yes. |
MutantTurkey | I know. I was just out there. |
MutantTurkey | I know some people who really enjoy it |
Piki | samelian: what's an RHCE? |
samelian | redhat certified engineer |
MutantTurkey | rh cert |
MutantTurkey | samelian: is that difficult to get? |
samelian | i think is not so hard |
MutantTurkey | is it a test or a course? |
samelian | I haven't it, there is very expensive and english are required |
Piki | ah, well coporate america seems to hate open source |
samelian | as I know, is a short course then an examen |
Piki | and i don't have a lot of money to spend on one |
MutantTurkey | samelian: I am try and get it |
MutantTurkey | Piki: you are so negative :/ |
Piki | MutantTurkey: i am just being honest |
samelian | yes, for me Piki seems negative too :) |
MutantTurkey | :) |
MutantTurkey | i am honest also. |
samelian | Piki: you can't start your own small business? |
Piki | MutantTurkey: unless you can find a redhat that works, and a place that would hire an open source person with no acceptance of proprietary, and find me money, i don't see where i'd get a job |
Piki | samelian: not without money |
Piki | i am barely living as it is |
samelian | hmm, seems that is hard to survive in US |
samelian | even as native |
MutantTurkey | samelian: haha, its all about education |
Piki | my cat needs a vet, i've got three hard disks to buy, an upgrade for one computer to buy, i've got bills to pay, and food to eat |
MutantTurkey | Piki: do you live alone or what? and if you don't mind, how old are you? |
Piki | MutantTurkey: i live with my mom because i can't afford to live alone, and i'm 23 |
samelian | ah, you're young :) |
Piki | she can't afford to live alone either |
MutantTurkey | sounds like me in a few years. |
MutantTurkey | I'll be stuck at home forever :/ (luckily i've been working on my basement for years now) |
MutantTurkey | it shaping up quite nicely. |
MutantTurkey | samelian: i am 16 :p |
samelian | MutantTurkey: this was my guess :) |
samelian | I have 36, almost |
Piki | but living with my mom isn't working out, everything is my fault, and i'm trying to take over the world just because i use the virus called linux |
MutantTurkey | yeesh |
MutantTurkey | Piki: thats how most people view it. |
Piki | she really needs a hospital |
Piki | MutantTurkey: i've never seen any other parent go to the extreme or be as hypocritical as my mother, literall everything i say is a lie, and she refuses to look at the evidence to the contrary |
samelian | MutantTurkey: I still waiting for error :) |
MutantTurkey | samelian: sorry |
samelian | haha |
MutantTurkey | Piki: D: move the hell out |
MutantTurkey | http://ix.io/1vd |
Piki | MutantTurkey: then pay for me to move out |
samelian | don't worry, there I see how real life is |
samelian | MutantTurkey: you did what I said? about out of source? |
MutantTurkey | Piki: surely you could work at burger king for 7.50 an hour and rent an apartment. I know a few guys who do that. |
Piki | if i had the money to move out, i would be out in an instant |
MutantTurkey | samelian: out of source yet |
MutantTurkey | Piki: what sort of hours you working? 40+ is my guess |
Piki | MutantTurkey: yeah right, i couldn't move out at 7.68 |
samelian | MutantTurkey: cmake /path/to/kdegraphics |
MutantTurkey | Piki: the trick it teaming up on apartments |
samelian | not cmake /path/to/kdegraphics/kruler |
MutantTurkey | samelian: thankyou |
MutantTurkey | it says build files have been written |
MutantTurkey | now what? |
samelian | now, nothing, yet |
Piki | MutantTurkey: no, part time, i'm not allowed more than 34 hours, and it changes all the time, and they don't want anybody full time, "cutting costs" and all that |
samelian | you forgot few things |
*TokRa has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | Piki: quit, work at a burger joint, apply as a full time staff |
samelian | MutantTurkey: you see ##### user requested modules ####################? |
MutantTurkey | samelian: yes |
MutantTurkey | TokRa: good work on the website! :) |
samelian | add |
samelian | option( BUILD_KRULER "Build kruler" ${BUILD_ALL} ) |
Piki | MutantTurkey: i worked at BK for six years, i was worse off than at walmart with how they treated me |
TokRa | MutantTurkey: thank you, but it is still not complete |
MutantTurkey | TokRa: it is getting close |
MutantTurkey | Piki: well. the only solution is education :) |
Piki | what i need is for my g/f to get a job, then HOPEFULLY we can save money to get married and find an apartment |
MutantTurkey | apply for FAFSA. they give you a ton of money |
Piki | MutantTurkey: yeah, but i have to wait, my gpa remember? |
Piki | they won't accept me for awhile |
MutantTurkey | Piki: try harder :) |
Piki | MutantTurkey: at what? |
TokRa | MutantTurkey: I intend to remaster the site completely, if you don't mind. kb9vqf has accepted that. |
MutantTurkey | school! |
MutantTurkey | TokRa: as long as it is good i do not mind |
TokRa | I mean, the exterior would remain the same, but internal content would change. |
samelian | Piki: don't waste so much time with linux :) |
MutantTurkey | TokRa: for what reason? |
Piki | MutantTurkey: i can't, nobody will accept me, my only chance is to wait until my academic suspension is over |
MutantTurkey | Piki: how bad of a gpa? D: |
Piki | samelian: then spend time with BSD? |
samelian | haha |
TokRa | The single problem is I've got a little sick this Sunday |
Piki | i don't use proprietary at all, not even flash |
MutantTurkey | why not? |
*TokRa will need some extra days to get up and complete the site | |
TokRa | ^_^ |
Piki | MutantTurkey: 1.50 or something |
MutantTurkey | D: thats awful |
MutantTurkey | i thought mine was bad with a 2.45 |
MutantTurkey | TokRa: what are you changing internally? |
Piki | MutantTurkey: why should i trust code i can't see or use something that doesn't work? |
Piki | MutantTurkey: well, that's how bad ccac is, nobody knows how to teach |
TokRa | MutantTurkey: first, the css styling |
MutantTurkey | TokRa: yes, well that has some problems |
samelian | MutantTurkey: you added option( BUILD_KRULER "Build kruler" ${BUILD_ALL} ) ? |
MutantTurkey | samelian: yes |
MutantTurkey | Piki: though you can't, a blanket ban is not the solution. |
samelian | MutantTurkey: now correct tde_conditional_add_subdirectory( BUILD_KRULES kruler ) |
TokRa | second, the SEO related things, the unitary (main "frame" + page includes) design |
samelian | put tde_conditional_add_subdirectory( BUILD_KRULER kruler ) |
Piki | see, i don't be negative, i tell things as they are, even if they are negative |
MutantTurkey | I am confused. |
MutantTurkey | samelian: where? |
samelian | under kdemultimedia directories |
MutantTurkey | okay |
MutantTurkey | TokRa: hmmm. I am confused |
Piki | MutantTurkey: well i don't give up my freedom to choose what i do with my computers or my life just because someone tells me to |
MutantTurkey | you are not going to use frames are you? |
Piki | and that means no proprietary |
TokRa | Of course not, I mean no HTML <frame>, but the idea itself |
MutantTurkey | Piki: agreed, but if it is inhibiting you from working, getting a place to live without your batshit insane mother, starting a life of your own, that maybe worth it. |
Piki | if i could start a business now (my eventual plan), i would |
samelian | Piki: creating proprietary software give us food |
MutantTurkey | TokRa: oh ok :) |
Piki | but i have to wait on school |
MutantTurkey | right |
Piki | samelian: only because we let it |
MutantTurkey | samelian: okay :) |
samelian | hehe, i'm not sure how I can create free software and eat something :) |
samelian | I working on trinity only on my spare time |
Piki | samelian: because the "free" in free software doesn't mean price |
MutantTurkey | it means free beer! |
MutantTurkey | for everyone! |
Piki | it means freedom, the freedom to do what you want, even charge for it |
samelian | sure, but is very hard to make money with free software |
Piki | then do open source itself |
MutantTurkey | anyway enough of this discussion of freedom and crap. I am trying to get this cmake thing working xD |
Piki | instead |
MutantTurkey | Piki: no money in FOSS. |
TokRa | For example, there are two pages: /about.php and /releases.php. For now, they are represented as two different files using some common includes (e.g. header & footer) |
Piki | open souce can have more limitation than free software, even that the original author can distribue it |
MutantTurkey | TokRa: so instead you will have a frame and include text? |
samelian | the only OSS project which make money is asterisk, I think |
samelian | but just because Digium selling hardware for it |
Piki | samelian: redhat, suse... |
TokRa | My vision is to convert the internal logic to /?page=about and /page=releases |
MutantTurkey | Piki: yes but they make money other ways |
MutantTurkey | on support |
samelian | Piki: RH do not make software very much |
MutantTurkey | TokRa: D: why |
MutantTurkey | thats overkill i think |
Piki | samelian: for support too |
MutantTurkey | I do not like that one bit. |
MutantTurkey | what is the reason to do that? |
Piki | that's most of their revenue, supporting software |
TokRa | And use mod-rewrite then to make them loook like /releases and /about |
MutantTurkey | TokRa: but why? |
samelian | most of people will use your software without paying for suppoer |
TokRa | To make the site more flexible |
MutantTurkey | how is that more flexible. |
MutantTurkey | i just think that makes it more complicated :P |
Piki | samelian: i can still limit distribution to myself, as long as the source is visible |
samelian | MutantTurkey: TokRa is right |
MutantTurkey | about what? |
samelian | about mod_rewrite |
MutantTurkey | I mean I don't understand why make it more complicated |
TokRa | For example, if one decides to change some layout, there will be no need to do that in all files, onli inside the main one (index.php) |
samelian | is not, actually |
TokRa | that's the way I see it |
samelian | is easier to maintain |
MutantTurkey | change what layout |
MutantTurkey | the only stuff you need to change is in the header and footer? |
MutantTurkey | thats why we have header.php and footer.php includes |
samelian | bleah, we mixed discussion and I forget what I said last time :) |
samelian | MutantTurkey: you changed BUILD_KRULES to BUILD_KRULER? |
TokRa | Not exactly. For example, we do have the <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="media/global.css"> statement on tom of each page. What if we do have e need to add some extra css files inside? this part is not located inside header.php. |
MutantTurkey | samelian: yes I did that |
TokRa | My aim is to make the site logic more universal |
MutantTurkey | TokRa: so just simply move it to the header? |
MutantTurkey | if you think it will make things simpler. |
samelian | MutantTurkey: just trust the man :) |
*TokRa does ^_^ | |
MutantTurkey | samelian: I do not trust anyone. |
TokRa | TRUSTNO1 |
samelian | seems that he knows what to do :)) |
*TokRa trusts the agent Mulder | |
MutantTurkey | samelian: people who know to much about computers always want to make things more complicated than needed |
samelian | haha |
samelian | MutantTurkey: because he have some experience |
MutantTurkey | TokRa: and for the record, if you need to add a css file, just use sed or awk ;) |
TokRa | samelian: I am she actually |
samelian | and try to avoid potential problems |
MutantTurkey | samelian: they always want to make it complicated. |
MutantTurkey | that is why i write my own software. minimal. without problems. without anything extra. |
samelian | then you will found that the software is too minimal and hard to extend :)) |
MutantTurkey | samelian: if i need to extend it, i then write additional code. |
TokRa | MutantTurkey: I guess in the future there could be a need to add some extras to the site |
MutantTurkey | TokRa: like what? |
Piki | samelian: build in a way to add extensions or plugins |
TokRa | more content parts, more difficult to handle the independent design parts |
samelian | Piki: a plugin system is not easy as MutantTurkey told |
MutantTurkey | samelian: plugin system is evil. |
MutantTurkey | i hate plugins. |
samelian | hehe, as i said |
MutantTurkey | everything i want i write into the code. |
Piki | samelian: i didn't see him say that |
samelian | trinity is very pluggable, actually |
samelian | "that is why i write my own software. minimal. without problems. without anything extra." |
samelian | trinity is exactly the oposite |
Piki | samelian: but he did not mention plugins or extensions |
samelian | in trinity almost everything are plugin |
MutantTurkey | samelian: and hence trinity has about a million problems |
MutantTurkey | the larger you let your source go, the more potential breakage |
samelian | but, you must agree that such large project cannot be monolithic |
*TokRa like the Firefox way: the basic functionality + thousands of options to add | |
MutantTurkey | Firefox is awful. |
samelian | will be impossible to maintan |
MutantTurkey | firefox is impossible to maintain :P |
MutantTurkey | and keeps getting slower. |
MutantTurkey | and bloated. |
Piki | MutantTurkey: have as little in the code as possible, let the people who want the extras deal with making them work |
samelian | ok, please focus to cmake :) |
TokRa | MutantTurkey: I meant it from the user's point of vue |
MutantTurkey | TokRa: anyway, if you think it will make it easier later, go for it. |
MutantTurkey | samelian: okay so now what do i do? |
TokRa | MutantTurkey: ok :) |
MutantTurkey | TokRa: but don't add anything to fancy :P |
samelian | now, run cmake /path/to/source -DBUILD_KRULER=ON |
samelian | MutantTurkey: stop arguing with TokRa :) |
TokRa | samelian: it is ok :) |
MutantTurkey | I do not mean to argue |
MutantTurkey | just discuss |
*TokRa likes the pluralism | |
TokRa | In disputes the truth is born |
samelian | MutantTurkey defending his project, I know |
MutantTurkey | It is our project, we are a team, teams work together to make things better. |
samelian | blabla :) |
TokRa | Indeed |
MutantTurkey | this is the nature of open source. |
MutantTurkey | samelian: some problems D: |
samelian | ok, paste it |
MutantTurkey | CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:33 (tde_add_kdeinit_executable): |
MutantTurkey | Unknown CMake command "tde_add_kdeinit_executable". |
samelian | paste all |
samelian | command you run + errors |
samelian | about website, what I want to say is that we must to recognize our limits and let more competent person to make right job |
MutantTurkey | samelian: I would say TokRa is far beyond my skills as an web designer. |
MutantTurkey | which is exactly why i hesitate handing it over! the more people know, the more likely that they make things complicated and confusing for everyone else. |
MutantTurkey | but i digress |
MutantTurkey | samelian: http://pastebin.com/40cQBGcP |
samelian | kdegraphics is ../ ? |
MutantTurkey | no kruler is |
samelian | is not correct |
samelian | ../.. |
MutantTurkey | ok sorry |
MutantTurkey | says everything build ok |
samelian | good |
samelian | now try to make |
MutantTurkey | ok |
MutantTurkey | hmmm |
samelian | paste errors :) |
MutantTurkey | odd. http://pastebin.com/XYtHTf9H |
samelian | MutantTurkey: kruler is not kdeinit, but a normal binary |
MutantTurkey | it is trying to build kview i think |
MutantTurkey | samelian: oh okay. |
MutantTurkey | so what do i change it to. tde_add_executable? |
MutantTurkey | samelian: It still give me some error, VERSION not declared in scope? |
samelian | I think is not, wait |
MutantTurkey | ok |
samelian | add in config.h.cmake |
samelian | #cmakedefine VERSION @VERSION@ |
MutantTurkey | in kview? |
MutantTurkey | oh nvm |
samelian | then |
samelian | in main cmakelists, under project( kdegraphics ) |
samelian | put |
samelian | set( VERSION 3.5.13 ) |
samelian | and make again |
MutantTurkey | same error. |
samelian | about version? |
MutantTurkey | yes. |
MutantTurkey | wait. |
MutantTurkey | yes, but it is about kuler |
samelian | check if you have config.h |
MutantTurkey | doesn't exist |
samelian | is not ok |
samelian | I mean, config.h must be in build directory |
samelian | is autogenerated |
MutantTurkey | it is not. |
samelian | hmm |
MutantTurkey | at least not for me :/ |
samelian | show me what you see in build dir |
MutantTurkey | okay |
MutantTurkey | wait kruler or what? |
samelian | for this reason I told you to use out of source :) |
MutantTurkey | which build dir? |
samelian | builddir of kdegraphics |
MutantTurkey | ok |
MutantTurkey | http://ix.io/1ve |
samelian | hmm, please use out of source, I do not understand anything |
MutantTurkey | I am unclear "out of source"? as in a different directory |
samelian | yes, but seems that still in source |
samelian | use /tmp as build dir |
MutantTurkey | I cannot. |
samelian | /tmp/kdegraphics.build |
samelian | why not? |
MutantTurkey | sorry, yes i can. |
MutantTurkey | okay |
MutantTurkey | I have made that directory, and done "cmake ~/trinity/kdegraphics" everything is ok |
samelian | good |
samelian | now you must have config.h |
MutantTurkey | there is a config.h in ~/trinity/kdegraphics |
samelian | was generated before |
samelian | delete it |
MutantTurkey | okay |
samelian | actually do not forget to run "cmake ~/trinity/kdegraphics -DBUILD_KRULES=ON" |
MutantTurkey | okay |
samelian | or better, "rm -rf *; cmake ~/trinity/kdegraphics -DBUILD_KRULES=ON" |
MutantTurkey | you mean KRULER :P |
samelian | kruler, ofc :) |
MutantTurkey | okay i did that. |
samelian | good |
samelian | check for config.h |
MutantTurkey | it is there |
samelian | ceck if you have VERSION="3.5.13" in it |
MutantTurkey | in the file : /* #undef VERISION */ |
samelian | VERISION is not VERSION :) |
MutantTurkey | yes, but i do not see where it is being generated |
MutantTurkey | ah |
MutantTurkey | got it |
samelian | in config.h.cmake |
MutantTurkey | :) nice |
MutantTurkey | goti t |
MutantTurkey | now? |
samelian | try to make |
MutantTurkey | now i change dirs? |
samelian | nope |
MutantTurkey | how can i make in my tmp folder? there is no makefile |
samelian | are you sure? |
MutantTurkey | yes. |
MutantTurkey | there is nothing it the temporary directory we created |
samelian | but where config.h was created? |
MutantTurkey | and looks like 3.5.12 can't be used |
MutantTurkey | to many decimal pointes |
samelian | I do not understand |
MutantTurkey | you cannot have a number like 3.5.12 |
MutantTurkey | it is not a real number |
MutantTurkey | because it is treated as an integer |
samelian | this must be a string |
MutantTurkey | I don't think so, because gcc spits out this: error: to many decimal points in number |
samelian | in config.h you must have #define VERSION "3.5.13" |
samelian | show me config.h.cmake |
MutantTurkey | #cmakedefine VERSION @VERSION@ |
samelian | you forgot quotes |
samelian | #cmakedefine VERSION "@VERSION@" |
samelian | actually I forgot |
MutantTurkey | ok |
MutantTurkey | okay problem solved |
samelian | good, next errors? |
MutantTurkey | something odd. |
samelian | paste it |
MutantTurkey | it builds correctly, but it looks as if it is building kview? |
samelian | nope, kview must skip |
MutantTurkey | no it is building it though |
samelian | paste logs |
MutantTurkey | http://pastebin.com/V66y8QFq |
MutantTurkey | there we go |
samelian | you used -DKRULER=ON or =DBUILD_ALL=ON |
samelian | ? |
samelian | show me again main cmakelists |
MutantTurkey | DKRULER |
MutantTurkey | -DBUILD_KRULER=ON right? |
samelian | yes |
MutantTurkey | hmmm |
MutantTurkey | oaky |
MutantTurkey | http://ix.io/1vf |
samelian | seems fine |
samelian | show me kruler's cmakelists |
samelian | i think I know what is the problem |
samelian | but show me kruler's cmakelists anyway |
MutantTurkey | okay |
MutantTurkey | http://ix.io/1vg |
samelian | you see the problem? |
samelian | tde_add_executable( kview AUTOMOC |
samelian | SOURCES klineal.cpp klineal.h main.cpp |
samelian | LINK kparts-shared kutils-shared |
samelian | ) |
MutantTurkey | what is the problem? |
MutantTurkey | oh |
MutantTurkey | silly me |
samelian | hehe |
MutantTurkey | :D :D :D |
MutantTurkey | so thats it? |
samelian | tde_add_executable( kview AUTOMOC |
samelian | you pasted it from kview |
MutantTurkey | i fixed it |
MutantTurkey | yes I have changed it to kruler |
samelian | good, now must be ok |
MutantTurkey | now it builds. |
MutantTurkey | It builds 100% :0 |
MutantTurkey | :) |
samelian | now we must to refine cmakelists |
MutantTurkey | explain? |
samelian | so, you must follow Makefile.am |
samelian | first |
samelian | open it |
MutantTurkey | okay |
MutantTurkey | I've looked at it before |
samelian | you see some directives in it |
MutantTurkey | install some files |
samelian | bin_PROGRAMS meaning that is ordinary binary program |
samelian | so, use tde_add_executable |
samelian | then |
samelian | kruler_METASOURCES |
samelian | so, use AUTOMOC |
samelian | kruler_LDFLAGS |
samelian | kruler_LDFLAGS = $(all_libraries) $(KDE_RPATH) |
samelian | in this case, just ignore it |
samelian | kruler_LDADD = $(LIB_KDEUI) |
MutantTurkey | D: you have lost me |
MutantTurkey | sorry ;P |
samelian | meaning that we need only LINK kdeui-shared |
samelian | where i'm lost you? :) |
MutantTurkey | oh okay |
samelian | when you build CMakeLists.txt you must followe Makefile.am, very closely |
MutantTurkey | so we only need to link kdeui-shared |
MutantTurkey | what about adding those files |
samelian | yes |
samelian | which one? |
MutantTurkey | if you look at Makefile.am it seems the sound file |
samelian | yes, you must install it too |
MutantTurkey | as well ass eventsrc |
MutantTurkey | how do i do that? |
MutantTurkey | same exact way? |
samelian | but one step at a time :) |
MutantTurkey | okay :) |
samelian | then, you see |
samelian | kruler_SOURCES = klineal.cpp main.cpp |
samelian | so, as sources use just klineal.cpp main.cpp |
samelian | remove klineal.h |
samelian | also, do not forget DESTINATION directive |
samelian | binary files going to ${BIN_INSTALL_DIR} |
samelian | so write |
samelian | DESTINATION ${BIN_INSTALL_DIR} |
MutantTurkey | no klineal.h? |
samelian | nope, this is header, cannot be compiled |
MutantTurkey | right |
MutantTurkey | add DESTINATION to tde_add_executable? |
samelian | yes |
samelian | correct code is this: |
MutantTurkey | added |
samelian | tde_add_executable( kruler AUTOMOC |
samelian | SOURCES klineal.cpp main.cpp |
samelian | LINK kdeui-shared |
samelian | DESTINATION ${BIN_INSTALL_DIR} |
samelian | ) |
MutantTurkey | got it |
MutantTurkey | that is what i have now |
samelian | good |
samelian | now we must install other files |
samelian | there I have a set of templates |
samelian | http://www.thel.ro/trinity/templates/ |
samelian | check this one |
samelian | http://www.thel.ro/trinity/templates/CMakeLists.txt.complete |
samelian | you have this section: |
samelian | ##### other data ################################ |
samelian | install( FILES DESTINATION ${XDG_APPS_INSTALL_DIR} ) |
MutantTurkey | ahh okay |
MutantTurkey | i se |
MutantTurkey | i see' |
samelian | then check this: |
samelian | http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/wiki/bin/view/Developers/CMakeConversionProcess |
samelian | go to "Standard install paths" |
samelian | this automake sequence is translated to cmake in this way: |
samelian | appdir = $(kde_datadir)/kruler |
samelian | app_DATA = eventsrc |
samelian | is transformed to: |
samelian | install( FILES eventsrc DESTINATION ${DATA_INSTALL_DIR}/kruler ) |
samelian | sounddir = $(kde_datadir)/kruler/sounds |
samelian | sound_DATA = move.wav |
samelian | to |
samelian | install( FILES move.wav DESTINATION ${DATA_INSTALL_DIR} /kruler/sounds) |
samelian | sorry |
samelian | install( FILES move.wav DESTINATION ${DATA_INSTALL_DIR}/kruler/sounds) |
samelian | and this: |
samelian | $(mkinstalldirs) $(DESTDIR)$(kde_appsdir)/Graphics |
samelian | $(INSTALL_DATA) $(srcdir)/uninstall.desktop $(DESTDIR)$(kde_appsdir)/Graphics/kruler.desktop |
samelian | to |
MutantTurkey | I have figured a bit, then looked on my irc client and see that you said it also :) |
samelian | install( FILES uninstall.desktop DESTINATION ${APPS_INSTALL_DIR}/Graphics RENAME kruler.desktop ) |
samelian | the last conversion is a little tricky, so pay attention to it |
MutantTurkey | okay let me catch up. |
samelian | what do this: |
samelian | $(INSTALL_DATA) $(srcdir)/uninstall.desktop $(DESTDIR)$(kde_appsdir)/Graphics/kruler.desktop |
samelian | copy uninstall.desktop to $(DESTDIR)$(kde_appsdir)/Graphics/kruler.desktop, right? |
MutantTurkey | yes makes sense |
MutantTurkey | what about the mkinstalldirs? its that correct? |
samelian | mkinstalldirs create directory $(DESTDIR)$(kde_appsdir)/Graphics |
samelian | cmake not need this |
MutantTurkey | so we don't need it? |
MutantTurkey | okay great |
MutantTurkey | http://ix.io/1vh |
samelian | so, in this last case we can leave it as usual |
samelian | install( FILES uninstall.desktop DESTINATION ${APPS_INSTALL_DIR}/Graphics ) |
samelian | right? |
samelian | because uninstall.desktop will be copied to ${APPS_INSTALL_DIR}/Graphics |
MutantTurkey | okay |
MutantTurkey | because kde_appsdir is now APPS_INSTALL_DIR |
samelian | but we need in this place "kruler.desktop" |
samelian | for this reason we using directive RENAME |
samelian | to renaming uninstall.desktop to kruler.desktop |
MutantTurkey | I am confused. |
MutantTurkey | http://ix.io/1vi |
MutantTurkey | this is what i currently have |
samelian | instead $(INSTALL_DATA) $(srcdir)/uninstall.desktop $(DESTDIR)$(APPS_INSTALL_DIR)/Graphics/kruler.desktop |
samelian | put |
samelian | install( FILES uninstall.desktop DESTINATION ${APPS_INSTALL_DIR}/Graphics RENAME kruler.desktop ) |
MutantTurkey | ah |
MutantTurkey | now i understand |
samelian | good |
MutantTurkey | okay I have that |
samelian | cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8) can be removed from there, we have it already in main cmakelists |
samelian | now, about formatting |
samelian | leave two spaces between sections |
MutantTurkey | okay |
samelian | and rename #### kruler (kdeinit) ########################### to #### kruler (executable) ########################### |
samelian | also, section labels must have exactly 49 characters |
MutantTurkey | D: |
samelian | ok, make changes and show me |
MutantTurkey | why 49? |
samelian | i have no ideea :) |
MutantTurkey | http://ix.io/1vj |
samelian | I started with 49 |
samelian | and all cmake files have 49 |
MutantTurkey | ah |
MutantTurkey | okay |
MutantTurkey | http://ix.io/1vk |
samelian | very well, looking like my own work :) |
MutantTurkey | :) |
MutantTurkey | is it all good? |
samelian | ofc, you must put your own copyright notice |
samelian | almost |
samelian | do not forget about pics dir |
MutantTurkey | D: |
samelian | this can be pretty tricky as well, so pay attention |
MutantTurkey | I suppose i have to use GPL D: |
samelian | actually you can use any licence you want |
MutantTurkey | okay paying attention |
samelian | even public domain :) |
MutantTurkey | I will stay with BSD to avoid confusion |
samelian | good, show me cmakelists from pics dir |
MutantTurkey | It is empty :P |
MutantTurkey | I just created it as a placeholder |
samelian | good |
samelian | open makefile.am |
samelian | there we have two kind of pictures |
MutantTurkey | okay |
samelian | ordinary images and icons |
samelian | the first images are installed as ordinary data |
MutantTurkey | so the same way INSTALL( FILES blah blah blah) |
samelian | yes |
samelian | when string of files are too long, we must to format it |
MutantTurkey | okay |
samelian | I use this command: |
samelian | echo kruler-east.png kruler-north.png kruler-south.png kruler-west.png | fmt -w 70 |
MutantTurkey | right |
MutantTurkey | why do we need to format it? |
samelian | because sometimes we have hundred of files |
MutantTurkey | oh |
samelian | and the string is far too long |
MutantTurkey | right |
samelian | so, in this case will be like this: |
samelian | install( |
samelian | kruler-east.png kruler-north.png kruler-south.png kruler-west.png |
samelian | DESTINATION ${DATA_INSTALL_DIR}/kruler/pics ) |
samelian | 4 space indetation for files |
samelian | 2 spaces for DEST |
MutantTurkey | okay |
samelian | good |
samelian | now, the tricky parts :) |
samelian | in makefile.am you see |
samelian | KDE_ICON = kruler |
samelian | but, you have 4 images |
samelian | which must be installed in 4 directories |
MutantTurkey | oh |
MutantTurkey | for 32x32 64x64 etc |
samelian | so, there is macro for automate this task |
samelian | yes |
samelian | in this case: |
MutantTurkey | is there for cmake? |
samelian | tde_ macros are created by me |
samelian | so |
samelian | in this case we have: |
samelian | tde_install_icons( kruler ) |
samelian | that's all |
MutantTurkey | that is all? |
MutantTurkey | nice |
samelian | sometimes is enough tde_install_icons( ) |
MutantTurkey | okay |
samelian | http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/wiki/bin/view/Developers/CMakeConversionProcess#tde_install_icons |
samelian | good, now show me the cmakelists |
MutantTurkey | http://ix.io/1vl |
samelian | very well |
samelian | actually, remove include_directories and include_directories |
samelian | we do not need it there |
samelian | we do not compiling anything there |
samelian | you can remove #### other data ################################# as well |
samelian | because we haven't another sections |
MutantTurkey | okay |
MutantTurkey | http://ix.io/1vm |
samelian | nice |
samelian | now we can try to install :) |
samelian | run make install DESTDIR=/tmp/kdegraphics.install |
doda | MutantTurkey: instaled trinity |
doda | finaly |
doda | finally :D |
MutantTurkey | doda: how is that working out? |
doda | works great |
MutantTurkey | great :) |
MutantTurkey | samelian: CMake Error at kruler/pics/CMakeLists.txt:12 (install): |
MutantTurkey | install called with unknown mode kruler-east.png |
MutantTurkey | oh i know why |
samelian | hang on |
samelian | install( FILES |
MutantTurkey | yes |
doda | i need some battery applet, and to figure out how to emulate scroll with middle button |
samelian | for battery applet use kpowersave |
doda | aha |
MutantTurkey | doda: yeah, any questions just ask in here :P these guys are pretty helpful |
doda | aha :), i will |
samelian | actually I must sleep right now, because there is 04:11 AM :) |
samelian | MutantTurkey: so, installing is ok? |
MutantTurkey | samelian: go sleep |
MutantTurkey | It installs almost all okay |
samelian | good |
MutantTurkey | it created a directroy called $(BIN_INSTALL_DIR) though :P |
MutantTurkey | i will work on it |
MutantTurkey | thank you for the help! |
samelian | use {} instead () |
MutantTurkey | yes, i got it worked out |
MutantTurkey | i may be able to start workin on the other ones now |
MutantTurkey | also how do i commit this stuff? |
MutantTurkey | actually, just go sleep :P we can talk more later |
samelian | good, then give me your files again, I will commit it to svn |
samelian | sooner or later you will need write acces to svn |
MutantTurkey | of course |
MutantTurkey | I will copy relevant files over to tar archive and email them to you or something for now |
samelian | tomorrow I will have time, will try something harder :) |
samelian | ok |
samelian | send to serghei@thel.ro |
MutantTurkey | okay |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: actually got something done with serghei's help! ported kruler to cmake :D |
samelian | if you want to check it if working really, rerun cmake as this: |
samelian | cmake /path/to/source CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/trinity -DBUILD_KRULER=ON |
samelian | then |
samelian | make && sudo make install |
MutantTurkey | it worked |
samelian | -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/trinity |
samelian | good |
MutantTurkey | well I don't want to do that |
MutantTurkey | because that will mess with my /opt/trinity tree. but I can't see why it wouldn't work. |
samelian | you want to package, I understand :) |
MutantTurkey | yep |
MutantTurkey | well. how should i send this to you? what files? config.h.cmake, Cmakelists... thats it? |
samelian | just kruler cmakefiles |
samelian | I made all changes in main files |
MutantTurkey | okay :D |
samelian | you can read my notices as well, there: http://www.thel.ro/doc/ |
samelian | as homework you can complete this page: http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/wiki/bin/view/Developers/CMakeConversionProcess |
MutantTurkey | sent |
MutantTurkey | okay I'll try and work tomorrow |
MutantTurkey | I have to help setup a jazz show for some friends at my high school. they need desperate help configuring the lighting and sound boards. |
samelian | MutantTurkey: you sent me cmakecache |
samelian | send me cmakefiles from source tree |

Guest33749 | crud - nickserv is giving me issues - I'm david :) |
Guest33749 | Hey, what is the last module Mturkey got ported to cmake and do you have notes about how it was done? |
Xu_R | hmm.. it was kruler, according to my logs |
Xu_R | start here |
Xu_R | http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/wiki/bin/view/Developers/CMakeConversionProcess |
Xu_R | and here |
Xu_R | http://www.thel.ro/doc/ |
Xu_R | and then make sure you get on here later to have samelian check your work |
Guest33749 | Excellent - I've tried the CMake conversion - and it's a bit sparse :p |
Xu_R | he's pretty picky about standards ;) |
Guest33749 | Good - I need a picky teacher |
Xu_R | yea, he asked MutantTurkey to finish the Wiki page |
Guest33749 | The wiki doesn't even have a reference for check_modules yet ... |
Guest33749 | I'll tear kruler apart and see if I can reverse engineer it |
Xu_R | heh |
Xu_R | if you're here around 1100 EST or so, samelian should be here :) |
Guest33749 | OK, I'll try and check back then. The http://www.thel.ro/doc/ link is good :) |
Xu_R | great! :D |
Guest33749 | Thanks Robert - I'll go and see if I can get crystal windeco ported and report back tomorrow. Getting close to this old man's bed time |
Xu_R | ok. Make sure, if samelian approves it, you send your work to him, since he's keeping track of all this :) |
Guest33749 | He's got a lot to keep track of. What was the mention about the 3.5.13 release being pushed back? I didn't even know there was a target date? |
Xu_R | it's supposed to be very 6 months |
Xu_R | but we're being pushed back and we need the higher standard |
Xu_R | besides, supposedly, if we get cmake working, we could fix problems that were caused by using the auto* |
Guest33749 | Realisticly - I put any hope for a release a minimum 6 months out and closer to 12. That's not a bad thing, that is just recognition of how much work and testing still needs to be done on the cmake port of everything . |
Guest33749 | I think a clean cmake build of everything will cure a lot of the nits, etc.. (not that I know a whole lot), but it just makes sense. |
kb9vqf | Realistically we can't release this spring |
kb9vqf | And yes I hope CMake will fix a lot of packaging problems :) |
Xu_R | yes, that's why it's essential :D |
Guest33749 | Yep, and like I mentioned - I think that (the slip) is a good thing. I would always rather have it 'right' than have it 'quick' :) |
kb9vqf | Of course CMake means recreating a lot of the Ubuntu and Debian packaging rules.... |
kb9vqf | uggghhh |
Xu_R | hehe |
kb9vqf | I hope we can get another *buntu person to help with that |
Xu_R | one thing I don't like about mdv, suse, and fedora differences |
Xu_R | is that they packaged kdebase all different |
Xu_R | *Radically* different |
Xu_R | so I have to create a seperate spec file for each... >_<" |
Guest33749 | Well I'm still working on my grade school diploma with cmake. But, from a builders prospective, it sure makes things simple when it works (and a mother... when it doesn't) |
Xu_R | That's practically stalled me from throwing kdebase RPMs out there for 2 weeks already... |
Xu_R | david: lol |
Guest33749 | I'm going to go look at kruler and the link you gave me a bit more and see if I can start to make sense of an initial cmake template for small simple Trinity modules. You guys have a good one and THANKS for your help! |
Xu_R | ok, so it's about 0100, and i'm about to die. night :P |
Xu_R | s/die/faint or s/die/'fall asleep' , whatever ;) |

*kb9vqf wants to throw Intel out a window right now | |
Xu_R | aw. |
kb9vqf | "business grade" Intel fiber card decided to fail "tx unit hang" :-( |
Xu_R | D: |
kb9vqf | Hence the quickbuild outage x2 |
kb9vqf | It comes up for around 10-15 minutes then fails |
Xu_R | I've noticed :-\ |
Xu_R | never good to have a server fail |
kb9vqf | Nope |
kb9vqf | Oh well |
kb9vqf | It'll be back when the replacement arrives |
Xu_R | you seem to have lots of server problems D: |
kb9vqf | Actually the servers are happily running 24/7 |
kb9vqf | It's an external network problem |
kb9vqf | I don't have a lot of funds to invest in the external fabric |
kb9vqf | i.e. for open source stuff like QuickBuild |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: I see. it's ISP problems? |
kb9vqf | Routing between my intranet(s) and the ISP |
Xu_R | ewww. |
kb9vqf | Yep |
kb9vqf | Donations would definitely help to increase the reliability here :) |
kb9vqf | (spare parts tend to do that) |
kb9vqf | Otherwise it's "whenever I get the funds to fix x, y, or z" |
kb9vqf | I hope that once this part is replaced the routers will stabilize |

kb9vqf | don't see him here |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: actually i think this cmake stuff is not so bad. I have already done kruler, and now i am working on ksnapshot alone so i think if i can master the basics with samelian i can get it done quickly |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: yeah i noticed :/ |
kb9vqf | Great :) |
kb9vqf | Can you fix the Wiki article too? |
MutantTurkey | what is wrong with it? |
kb9vqf | It wasn't very clear |
MutantTurkey | It is very hard to explain how this all works. if you don't know cmake |
kb9vqf | I remember you said it wasn't much help |
kb9vqf | OK |
MutantTurkey | now that i understand how it works, the wiki is a good reference |
kb9vqf | Gotcha |
kb9vqf | Maybe you can add a "read this first" line then? |
MutantTurkey | I think I can add to it a bit. |
MutantTurkey | yes |
kb9vqf | sounds good |
MutantTurkey | if i get it mastered, then I can also teach people. |
kb9vqf | I'm still working on getting you a subversion server |
kb9vqf | That was the reason for the tbottu outage yesterday |
MutantTurkey | for the Arch files? |
kb9vqf | yes |
MutantTurkey | what do you think about having a server for the website? |
MutantTurkey | svn' |
kb9vqf | ? |
kb9vqf | Oh |
MutantTurkey | that seems to be the trend. |
kb9vqf | Hmmm |
MutantTurkey | keeping the website on svn. |
kb9vqf | Not sure |
kb9vqf | I don't like having anything that is executed on a machine and not security validated publically available |
kb9vqf | *publicly |
MutantTurkey | hmmm, I do not understand |
kb9vqf | php files are executed, meaning that if someone were to find a security vulerability in the public source files then they could use the vulerability to hack my server |
kb9vqf | *vulnerability |
MutantTurkey | oh that makes sense. |
*kb9vqf can't type | |
kb9vqf | static HTML does not have that problem |
kb9vqf | but it doesn't do very much either |
MutantTurkey | I don't know what TokRa is doing, but I do think she is making it overly compicated. |
MutantTurkey | but i digress. |
kb9vqf | I wouldn't mind, say, the css stuff being in svn |
kb9vqf | but the php needs to stay somewhat hidden |
*samelian has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | once TokRa works over the internals, then we can see. |
kb9vqf | I can always complain to TokRa about complexity :) |
kb9vqf | But yes, I would wait and see |
MutantTurkey | samelian: I am making good progress! i have almost got ksnapshot ported by myself! |
samelian | good :) |
MutantTurkey | I am confused, how do i test it again? to the folder in /tmp? |
MutantTurkey | samelian:I have run into the VERSION problem again, ksnapshot has variable called "KSNAPVERSION" so i made config.h.cmake in kdegraphics/ksnapshot/, which says #cmakedefine KSNAPVERSION "@KSNAPVERSION@" and defined it in the CMakeLists.txt, but it doesn't work :/ any advice? |
samelian | but you set KSNAPVERSION somewhere? |
MutantTurkey | yes in ksnapshot/CMakeLists.txt |
MutantTurkey | and in ksnapshot/config.h.cmake |
samelian | is not correct |
samelian | must be in main config.h.cmake |
MutantTurkey | okay thank you |
MutantTurkey | and in main CMakeLists.txt? |
MutantTurkey | or not |
samelian | nope |
samelian | but you are out of scope, you must force caching |
samelian | hang on |
MutantTurkey | ? |
samelian | set( KSNAPVERSION 3.5.13 CACHE INTERNAL "" FORCE ) |
MutantTurkey | why is that? |
samelian | because you define the variable in a child directory |
MutantTurkey | it is actually version 0.7 |
samelian | and this variable is not in scope of main cmakelists |
MutantTurkey | Do i set that in ksnapshot/cmakelists? |
samelian | of course |
MutantTurkey | OK thanks |
MutantTurkey | samelian: i still get error D: |
MutantTurkey | I will show you |
samelian | ok |
MutantTurkey | http://ix.io/1vH |
samelian | check if config.h contain KSNAPVERSION definition |
MutantTurkey | ok |
MutantTurkey | it has /* #undef KSNAPVERISON */ |
samelian | show me ksnapshot/CMakeLists.txt |
samelian | KSNAPVERISON is not KSNAPVERSION |
MutantTurkey | I have such sloppy mistakes |
samelian | be very careful, because of these mistakes we can go into strange runtime problems |
MutantTurkey | righty |
MutantTurkey | now it is still broken |
MutantTurkey | but, kdegraphics/config.h has #define KSNAPVERSION "0.7" |
samelian | show me the error |
samelian | ah |
MutantTurkey | :q |
MutantTurkey | :q! |
samelian | you say kdegraphics/config.h? |
MutantTurkey | oh sorry wrong window |
MutantTurkey | yes. |
MutantTurkey | wasn't that where it should be? |
samelian | nope |
samelian | kdegraphics do not have its own config.h |
MutantTurkey | (12:09:43 PM) MutantTurkey: and in ksnapshot/config.h.cmake |
MutantTurkey | (12:09:56 PM) samelian: is not correct |
MutantTurkey | (12:10:09 PM) samelian: must be in main config.h.cmake |
samelian | I mean ksnapshot/CMakeLists.txt |
samelian | yes, in main config.h.cmake |
MutantTurkey | in kdegrahpics/config.h.cmake? |
samelian | ah, I read wrong |
samelian | it's correct in kdegrahpics/config.h.cmake |
MutantTurkey | okay |
samelian | show me the error |
MutantTurkey | same as last time |
samelian | show me entire compile log |
MutantTurkey | http://ix.io/1vI |
samelian | ok, I found the problem |
samelian | prepend |
samelian | #include <config.h> |
samelian | in main.cpp |
MutantTurkey | ok. |
MutantTurkey | so i need to modify main.cpp? |
MutantTurkey | cool |
samelian | yes |
samelian | automake pass KSNAPVERSION via command line, but i don't like this method |
MutantTurkey | now let me make this clear, the config.h is in kdegraphics/ not ksnapshot/ ? |
samelian | yes, config.h is everytime in root of package |
MutantTurkey | ok |
kb9vqf | samelian is correct, we should not be passing via command line :) |
kb9vqf | as a matter of build policy |
kb9vqf | that's the old way of doing things and very hard to trace |
MutantTurkey | wow |
MutantTurkey | everything broke. |
samelian | of course is it |
MutantTurkey | ? |
samelian | you need to give cmake path to root binary source |
samelian | hang on |
MutantTurkey | hmmm? okay |
samelian | yes must add |
samelian | ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR} |
samelian | in include_directories( |
samelian | because make do not know where config.h is |
MutantTurkey | okay |
MutantTurkey | it is already in there |
samelian | you uncommented it? |
MutantTurkey | no. look http://ix.io/1vJ |
samelian | seems ok |
samelian | show me the error |
MutantTurkey | http://ix.io/1vK |
samelian | aa, linking error |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: tips submission system? D: sounds complicated |
MutantTurkey | samelian: yeah, but only after i add the config.h to the page |
samelian | because after you add config.h, everything has build correctly :)) |
MutantTurkey | ah! |
samelian | this |
samelian | ksnapshot.cpp:(.text+0x16dc): undefined reference to `KIO::NetAccess::exists(KURL const&, bool, QWidget*) |
MutantTurkey | okay so what do i need under LINK in tde_add_executable |
samelian | meaning that missing kio-shared |
MutantTurkey | okay, is there a list or something? |
samelian | sometime you will learn how to guess which library missing :) |
MutantTurkey | :P okay |
samelian | also, note that there is kio-shared, kdeui-shared is not necessary anymore |
samelian | because kio-shared depending by kdeui-shared |
samelian | and is added automatically |
MutantTurkey | still another error now |
MutantTurkey | I think, for k printing |
samelian | ok, show me error |
samelian | kdeprint-shared, i guess |
samelian | i don't remember if kdeprint have kio as dependency |
samelian | add just kdeprint-shared and remove kio-shared, to check |
MutantTurkey | no no no |
MutantTurkey | I mean it will work, but I'd rather just have them all so i can tell |
MutantTurkey | okay more errors |
samelian | show me |
MutantTurkey | http://ix.io/1vL |
samelian | you forgot to add ksnapshotiface.skel in sources |
MutantTurkey | ok thank you |
MutantTurkey | i thought it was only .cpp? |
MutantTurkey | files |
samelian | nope |
MutantTurkey | just not .h? |
samelian | all files present in ksnapshot_SOURCES |
samelian | .h will never present in ksnapshot_SOURCES |
samelian | check there which extensions are supported: http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/wiki/bin/view/Developers/CMakeConversionProcess |
MutantTurkey | I don't have that file. |
MutantTurkey | ksnapshotiface.skel |
samelian | is autogenerated, don't worry |
MutantTurkey | ok |
MutantTurkey | 100% ok! |
MutantTurkey | how do i test install? |
samelian | make install DESTDIR=/tmp/ksnapshot |
MutantTurkey | okay thanks |
MutantTurkey | It keeps installing it to tmp.../usr/local/bin is that fine? |
samelian | yes, because you do not passed CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX |
MutantTurkey | oh okay |
MutantTurkey | so that will be fine when we package it. |
samelian | sure |
MutantTurkey | :) |
MutantTurkey | well thats 2 down |
MutantTurkey | samelian: I just did kcoloredit too! |
samelian | nice :) |
MutantTurkey | this is not so hard |
MutantTurkey | and i am making good progress i think |
*Xu_R|School has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Xu_R|School | hello world :D |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R|School: o/ |
MutantTurkey | hello |
Xu_R|School | hehe... I feel so evil logging onto webchat from school >:P |
MutantTurkey | :P |
MutantTurkey | i used to ssh into my server |
MutantTurkey | and people just got freaked out |
MutantTurkey | black boxes with text |
MutantTurkey | scares the hell out of them |
MutantTurkey | thought i was "hacking the school mainframe" |
MutantTurkey | LOL |
MutantTurkey | what idiots |
MutantTurkey | i did get X forewarding setup, so i could run my own software at school |
MutantTurkey | with Xming |
Xu_R|School | LOL |
Xu_R|School | I tried to ssh |
Xu_R|School | but they blocked me |
Xu_R|School | accused me of hacking |
Xu_R|School | and I had to fight my way out of central office >:P |
MutantTurkey | yes |
MutantTurkey | quite my plight also |
MutantTurkey | i had to switch my ssh port to 80 because it was the only one they didn' block lol |
Xu_R|School | lol |
Xu_R|School | I have a webserver running on 80, so that didn't work :( |
MutantTurkey | use 8080, also not blocked :P |
Xu_R|School | nah, everything except 80 and 443 is blocked here :( |
Xu_R|School | what's funny is they said that I was hacking /etc/passwd, but my server logs show that the school computer never connected to my server in the beginning XD |
MutantTurkey | lols |
MutantTurkey | samelian: blagh blagh blagh. remember that problem with finding kde-config and my path? what was the solution to that? |
samelian | export PATH=/opt/trinity/bin |
MutantTurkey | samelian: thanks i figured it out |
MutantTurkey | :) guess what? |
MutantTurkey | i also got kiconedit done! |
samelian | hehe, very nice |
MutantTurkey | this is not so hard |
samelian | is not |
samelian | at least, for simple programs |
MutantTurkey | indeed. |
MutantTurkey | which these mostly are |
samelian | yes |
MutantTurkey | I think we should make the "pics" directory standard. |
MutantTurkey | because it seperates the icons from the sources |
MutantTurkey | and half of them have it already |
samelian | yes, will be nice |
samelian | but not now |
samelian | maybe next releases |
MutantTurkey | yeah. |
MutantTurkey | not really an problem |
MutantTurkey | samelian: how do you build a library? |
MutantTurkey | i am trying to port kamera now |
MutantTurkey | acually i will take a break and sleep for a while i think |
Xu_R|School | laters people, school is almost over, then I've got a lecture to attend. D: |

MutantTurkey | have you used trinity before? |
ben_ | yea. Since ubuntu 9.04. |
ben_ | Trying to get it on 10.10. but ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net is not responding... |
MutantTurkey | nice, longer than myself i can say :P |
MutantTurkey | I think quickbuild is down, hold on. |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: is quickbuild down momentarily? |
kb9vqf | yes |
kb9vqf | it should be back up tomorrow |
kb9vqf | router failure |
MutantTurkey | oh okay |
kb9vqf | sorry |

doda | now i'm here :D |
Xu_R | there's like an hour delay between your posts XD |
MutantTurkey | :D nice! |
Xu_R | oh, not anymore. |
doda | MutantTurkey: there was a bug |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: I keep getting busy. had to head over to much church for a while. |
MutantTurkey | doda: report that baby. |
doda | in kde, still presistent in trinity |
Piki | wow, freenode is super-filling lol |
MutantTurkey | which is? |
doda | its wierd, |
MutantTurkey | freenode is not doing so well lately |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: ah, I see. |
MutantTurkey | doda: you are on the 3.5.12 sources right? not svn? |
doda | choosing us and mk (macedonian layout) and selecting alt+shift doesn't work |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: yeah this week is super hectic |
doda | MutantTurkey: yep, debian packages |
MutantTurkey | doda: yeah. hmmm. did you search in the bug tracker? |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: worse here, got progress reports coming soon D: |
Xu_R | s/coming soon/friday |
MutantTurkey | lol, i thought it was thursday till about three hours ago |
doda | MutantTurkey: i will do it now, the kde3 bug tracker ? |
MutantTurkey | doda: no our bug tracker |
Xu_R | nice :P |
MutantTurkey | http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net |
doda | MutantTurkey: as i remmember correctly it existed in kde too, http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=macedonian returns nothing |
MutantTurkey | try layout |
MutantTurkey | or keyboard |
MutantTurkey | so you'll get related problems, might be all layouts not just us/macedonian |
MutantTurkey | samelian: okay, so libraries? |
doda | http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=100 |
tbottu | Bug 100 enh, P5, ---, kb9vqf, UNCO, Keyboard layout switcher does not work |
MutantTurkey | @bug 100 |
MutantTurkey | !bug 100 |
MutantTurkey | :[ awh i though tbottu would tell us |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: just throw the url like doda did |
Xu_R | (remember, this is mozbot, not supybot :( ) |
MutantTurkey | doda: yeah I just saw that. I'd say report a new bug, give more details, that thing is pretty un-detailed, not to mention old |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: yuck. I love supy |
doda | MutantTurkey: just checked, no layout works |
MutantTurkey | okay report that baby then. |
doda | MutantTurkey: a friend of mine had more info about this bug |
MutantTurkey | whp |
MutantTurkey | who's that? |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: I kno right? So do I :) |
doda | i guess its better to see with him |
doda | he is the local linux guru |
doda | :d |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: (: yo. so i started working on cmake. got alot done |
doda | but here is 3 o clock |
MutantTurkey | doda: I am the only local linux junkie D: at least my age. sort of sucky. |

Xu_R | MutantTurkey: just anyone on zelazny.freenode.net |

MutantTurkey | doda: people tend to think that. I don't know why. even in person i easily pass for like 19-20 |
doda | :D thats cool |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: nice! keep going with cmake! :D |
doda | i got the same thing :D |
doda | i;m 19 btw |
Xu_R | speaking of that... david said he'd show and ask samelian for cmake help like 2 days ago, guess he forgot. |
MutantTurkey | yay for young people! :p |
Xu_R | woot! |
*Xu_R hi5's MutantTurkey | |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: I can help him to a bit. I've picked it up fairly quickly for easy stuff. |
MutantTurkey | just need to figure out the library function |
doda | http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=193 |
tbottu | Bug 193 cri, P5, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, kxkb doesn't work |
doda | this is a bug with good info |
MutantTurkey | ah yes |
doda | the same problem |
doda | is from kde 3.5 |
doda | i did the exact same thing |
Xu_R | ah. bugs with activity and info is always a good thing :D |
MutantTurkey | doda: so exact same problem? |
doda | yep |
MutantTurkey | Hopefully we can get it resolved. If it pleases you, post on the ML and complain a bit. :) |
doda | as sergey did |
MutantTurkey | our developer(s) team is under heavy strain working with qt4 support and working on tQtinterface |
doda | MutantTurkey: its an old kde 3.5 problem |
doda | so |
doda | i think |
MutantTurkey | doda: yeah. that is the point of this project. fix all that broken s**t with 3.5 |
Xu_R | and cmake, packaging bugs, udev, etc... |
doda | MutantTurkey: yep, qt4 port first :) |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: yeah that too :P |
Xu_R | let's see... priorities: TOP: cmake and udev. MIDDLE: Qt4. BOTTOM: lots of other stuff |
MutantTurkey | there are about a zillion small bugs to squash. |
Xu_R | yea, Qt4 is so unstable right now, we'd rather just push a next release with cmake and udev. and then .14 could have qt4... >_< |
MutantTurkey | but don't impact critically. |
MutantTurkey | cmake is a definite |
Xu_R | realize that porting to cmake and udev can squash a thousand bugs if we fix it correctly (theoretically) |
MutantTurkey | well it will fix all the hal related problems |
MutantTurkey | and cmake will clean up the whole build tree |
MutantTurkey | instead of autohell |
Xu_R | yup yup |
Xu_R | there were many problems created by autotools, remember. cmake (theoretically) eliminates half of those zillion bugs ;) |
MutantTurkey | yes |
MutantTurkey | I need 2 monitors D: |
Xu_R | ~sigh~ |
MutantTurkey | double sigh |
MutantTurkey | doda: any other problems you've run into? |
doda | well no, only i had to edit xorg.conf to make my thinkpad trackpad scroll |
doda | in gnome there is a 3rd party app |
doda | and i need to put some eye candy :D |
doda | MutantTurkey: tommorow i will provide more info |
MutantTurkey | alright |
MutantTurkey | eye candy = important on a desktop. |
Xu_R | too important in kde4 |
MutantTurkey | obviously |
MutantTurkey | to your preference i mean, If you like less, have less, if you like more, have more. what is good about trinity is that it is very flexible |
Xu_R | yup |
Xu_R | blahh... helping someone with c++ programming hw... >_<" |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: awful :[ what sort of stuff? |
MutantTurkey | bah i don't even know C++. i avoid it. |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: just using the basics of C++ and its libraries. |
MutantTurkey | D: |
MutantTurkey | I am having trouble at one part |
MutantTurkey | can't figure out cmake libary includes D: |
Xu_R | D: |
MutantTurkey | D: D: D: no workings :/ |
Xu_R | :( |
MutantTurkey | ah well. |
MutantTurkey | to tired to find solution. will ask samelian later. |
Xu_R | it's 9.30 :P |
MutantTurkey | I know :P |
MutantTurkey | and i did nothing all day. |
Xu_R | blahh... don't you have like thursday or friday off or something? lucky |
MutantTurkey | fridays off |
MutantTurkey | done tomorrow at 12 |
MutantTurkey | i am quite a sloth |
Xu_R | lol |
MutantTurkey | sigh |
MutantTurkey | no avail |
MutantTurkey | I think i shall go relax. watch a film or something |
Xu_R | have fun! :) |
MutantTurkey | on second thought, it is getting late |
Xu_R | just go sleep :) |
MutantTurkey | good call |
MutantTurkey | night everyone! |

Strangelv | TDE distributions ought to include a cursive font that's cursive. The default TDE Kubuntu install has only manuscript fonts that aren't cursive for cursive |
K`zan | Hummm, I don't think this is a Trinity problem, but on my old Deb5 KDE3.5 the desktop does not show everything from my $HOME. Been trying to figure out how to duplicate that action, gets rather crowded with all that stuff on the desktop. If anyone has any ideas on this, I'd love to hear them. Back to google... |
K`zan | Interestingly, my desktop folder (in $HOME) only shows the stuff that is supposed to be shown on the Desktop(s). |

*kb9vqf is trying to determine if there is a mirroring problem ATM | |
Space_Man | on this machine i'm running the standard kubuntu 9.10 trinity, it is still on 3.5.11 |
Space_Man | it also dualboots linux mint debian with ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net |
Space_Man | but I haven't tried it since last weekend |
Space_Man | another machine here has an older version of mint - I think v9 - with gnome |

kb9vqf | There is a thunderstorm overhead and it might be disruting my systems :-/ |
kb9vqf | *disrupting |
SpaceMan_LMDE | stupid xchat closed instead of minimising |
kb9vqf | So I wonder why wget works and yet the apt-get operation does not |
kb9vqf | Let me try another thing |
*SpaceMan_LMDE_ has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | SpaceMan_LMDE_: OK, can you try the original command again (the one that failed earlier)? |
kb9vqf | SpaceMan_LMDE: OK, can you try the original command again (the one that failed earlier)? |
SpaceMan_LMDE | yes, I'm trying :) |
kb9vqf | OK |
kb9vqf | Saw you join/quit and was not sure |
SpaceMan_LMDE | I just installed konversation from that deb and tried it |
SpaceMan_LMDE | but it wanted to quit when I clicked on the close button, it should have minimised |
kb9vqf | SpaceMan_LMDE: So QuickBuild works now? |
SpaceMan_LMDE | yes, it appears to be working |
kb9vqf | OK |
kb9vqf | I locked it to my most reliable mirror |
kb9vqf | Good download speed? |
SpaceMan_LMDE | I just installed knemo-trinity, although it is quite small it installed very quickly |
kb9vqf | OK, good |
kb9vqf | I'll work on stabilizing the mirror system in the future |
SpaceMan_LMDE | Fetched 286 kB in 10s (28.3 kB/s) |
kb9vqf | hmmm |
kb9vqf | seems slow to me |
kb9vqf | can you try a larger package? |
SpaceMan_LMDE | here is the log http://paste.debian.net/109590/ |
SpaceMan_LMDE | kb9vqf: any suggestions? |
kb9vqf | I'd like to have you install a larger package |
kb9vqf | Trying to find one now |
kb9vqf | How about knights-trinity? |
SpaceMan_LMDE | I'll try koffice |
kb9vqf | It's a chess program |
kb9vqf | You should be getting at least 500kb/s |
kb9vqf | off the main mirror |
SpaceMan_LMDE | ok, currently installing knights-trinity |
SpaceMan_LMDE | Fetched 831 kB in 5s (164 kB/s) |
kb9vqf | OK, that's better |
kb9vqf | I'm not noticing any load on my connection |
kb9vqf | so it must be pulling from the mirror |
kb9vqf | where are you located (what country)? |
SpaceMan_LMDE | i'm now installing koffice-trinity |
SpaceMan_LMDE | I'm in the UK |
kb9vqf | That might explain the speeds |
kb9vqf | I'll work on the round robin ASAP |
kb9vqf | some sort of geolocation too possibly |
kb9vqf | at least it's back up :) |
SpaceMan_LMDE | the various parts of koffice are downloading at approx 290kb/s |
kb9vqf | Good |

SpaceMan_LMDE | kb9vqf: i'm back |
kb9vqf | OK |

SpaceMan_LMDE | yes please |
*SpaceMan_LMDE jumps around | |
kb9vqf | SpaceMan_LMDE: OK, try to apt-get update |
kb9vqf | And then install a Trinity package you haven't installed before |
kb9vqf | SpaceMan_LMDE: Ooops, try again :) |
SpaceMan_LMDE | apt-get update worked fine |
kb9vqf | Good |
kb9vqf | SpaceMan_LMDE: Now try to install a package |
kb9vqf | This should use the round robin mirroring system now |
SpaceMan_LMDE | trying to find a trinity package to install is difficult as most of them have already been installed |
SpaceMan_LMDE | python-trinity-trinity looks suitable |
SpaceMan_LMDE | some packages are downloading at 570kb/s |
kb9vqf | Great |
kb9vqf | The round robin is working then :) |
kb9vqf | Thanks for the test! |
kb9vqf | I wanted to do geolocation stuff originally, but it seems there is no free geolocation database available |
kb9vqf | I may end up adding a feature where you can let QuickBuild know what your location is and it will select the fastest mirror |
kb9vqf | But not today :) |
SpaceMan_LMDE | ktorrent has an IP to country info widget |
SpaceMan_LMDE | a Nexuiz server I used to admin had a useful geolocation script |
SpaceMan_LMDE | it told us where the IP was from |
SpaceMan_LMDE | I can ask the admin for a copy |
SpaceMan_LMDE | now installing rosegarden-trinity, a 166mb download |
SpaceMan_LMDE | the speed is fluctuating between 400kb/s and 650kb/s |

samelian | he forget that we do this work in our very little spare time |
samelian | actually my feeling is that we don't need to rush at all, current radical changes needs very much time to be implemented well |
kb9vqf | yes, I know |
kb9vqf | I was just thinking one day |
kb9vqf | we fix as many as we can and then we can say we did something :) |
kb9vqf | we need packagers, including Darrell |
samelian | kb9vqf: actually I do not care very much about Slackware, i think that this is worst distro ever :) |
samelian | these days I eat my portion of arrogant people, one more is too much for this week :) |
samelian | I will continue my work anyway, even I will remain the only trinity user |
kb9vqf | ah, ok |
kb9vqf | we will need a bug day eventually though :) |
samelian | for sure, we can do this |
samelian | but is hard to synchronize, because time lag between us |
kb9vqf | i was thinking all day GMT, people can join and leave in their respective time zones |
samelian | kb9vqf: what is 74-84-118-181.client.mchsi.com? |
kb9vqf | samelian: An alternate IP |
kb9vqf | why do you ask? |
samelian | is rejected by my s25r antispam filter, because is residential IP |
kb9vqf | It's a business IP |
kb9vqf | your spam filter is too sensitive |
kb9vqf | check the reverse DNS |
samelian | my filter checking for 74-84-118-18 form of reverse |
kb9vqf | mail should not be originating from that address |
samelian | i will whitelist it |
kb9vqf | don't |
kb9vqf | what was the message that was sent from that IP? |
samelian | "warning from trinity-devel@lists.pearsoncomputing.net" |
samelian | something send by elzm |
kb9vqf | must be old |
kb9vqf | very old |
kb9vqf | can you send me the message? |
kb9vqf | http://remote.12dt.com/lookup.php does not resolve to 74-84-118-181.client.mchsi.com |
samelian | ok |
kb9vqf | or I should say using 74-84-118-181.client.mchsi.com 74.84.118.181 does not resolve to that |
kb9vqf | grrrr |
kb9vqf | copy+paste is not working today |
kb9vqf | I think you know what I am trying to say :) |
samelian | sent |
kb9vqf | OK |
kb9vqf | Ignore it |
kb9vqf | That was back in February |
kb9vqf | sorry for the DNS trouble :( |
samelian | hehe, ok |
samelian | hmm, seems that email was important and I missed it |
kb9vqf | don't worry, I checked and you are still on the mailing list |
kb9vqf | I sent you a reply just now, did you receive it? |
kb9vqf | It should come from pearsoncomputing.net |
kb9vqf | not some weird RDNS |
samelian | yes |
kb9vqf | ok |
samelian | Received: from vali.starlink.edu (pearsoncomputing.net [74.84.118.180]) |
kb9vqf | then everything seems to be back to normal |
kb9vqf | BTW QuickBuild is now online and functioning quite well |
samelian | I think that is better to whitelist your email server, to avoid these issues |
kb9vqf | Well, I'd rather know about them |
kb9vqf | Kind of like Launchpad uses a different website for its developers so that issues can be caught before they go public |
samelian | ok, then, I will leave my filter as is, to detect furher problems :) |
kb9vqf | Thanks :) |
kb9vqf | Poke, yell, scream, and otherwise get my attention if anything wrong is detected ;-) |
samelian | what is QuickBuild actually? i'm not familiarized with this term |
samelian | because I'm gentoo user, I guess :) |
kb9vqf | It's my local Launchpad instance |
kb9vqf | Basically it's a huge build farm |
kb9vqf | file library, etc. |
samelian | aha, I see |
kb9vqf | I publish the Trinity sources and binaries on it |
kb9vqf | Anything present in the ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity directory is mirrored on the worldwide mirror system |
kb9vqf | and now that the round robin works correctly, you can get some very nice download speeds from it :-) |
samelian | hehe |
samelian | as developer, I using a svn copy |
kb9vqf | right |
kb9vqf | it's for the users |
kb9vqf | and to publish source tarballs |
kb9vqf | although, I do usually build from SVN |
kb9vqf | so it provides a nice fast way to test changes |
kb9vqf | this is broken ATM due to incomplete CMake |
kb9vqf | but when CMake is done nightly SVN builds will resume |
samelian | actually i'm pretty careful to push to svn only compilable packages |
kb9vqf | ah |
samelian | if is something wrong meaning that I made a mistake |
kb9vqf | right |
kb9vqf | I am not always so careful ;-) |
kb9vqf | It has caught a few of my mistakes in the past |
samelian | if you find an error, just throw me an email |
kb9vqf | sure |
samelian | thx |
kb9vqf | BTW, did you get a chance to fix kdepim yet? |
kb9vqf | I sent an email to the list |
samelian | the bug from bugzilla? |
kb9vqf | The FTBFS from SVN |
kb9vqf | You sent something to the list a while back |
kb9vqf | This: http://trinity-devel.pearsoncomputing.net/?0::1235 |
samelian | about tqsomething? |
kb9vqf | Yes |
samelian | yes, I did in my local copy |
samelian | kdepim is not ready yet, so is not a big problem |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | just curious :) |
kb9vqf | feel free to push to SVN whenever you want to |
samelian | hehe, ok, you can revert any mistake :) |
samelian | I working on kaddressbook right now |
kb9vqf | Although you might want to push the night before bug day |
kb9vqf | So that effort isn't duplicated |
kb9vqf | :) |
samelian | you still working on qt4 port? |
kb9vqf | yes |
kb9vqf | some |
kb9vqf | I don't have much time right now |
samelian | me neither :| |
kb9vqf | I did push a tqtinterface update to the website |
kb9vqf | the desktop is mostly usable under Qt4 |
samelian | link? |
kb9vqf | http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/wiki/bin/view/Developers/TQtForQt4 |
kb9vqf | I'm referring to the Qt4 version |
kb9vqf | not the Qt3 one |
kb9vqf | There are still a number of (relatively) minor glitches |
kb9vqf | The Konqueror about screen does not render properly (KHTML is kind of broken) |
samelian | aha |
kb9vqf | that and embedded KHTML images do not display |
samelian | maybe is better to intergrate webkit when is using qt4 |
kb9vqf | There's also an irritating Qt4 destructor crash on application close that Nokia basically said they won't fix |
samelian | to not duplicate effort |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | But I'm not there yet :) |
kb9vqf | We should clean up the Trinity source |
kb9vqf | Fix the bugs |
kb9vqf | etc. |
kb9vqf | Then I can work on Qt4 some more |
kb9vqf | Otherwise we'll lose our userbase while we work on CMake/Qt4/udev |
samelian | we need at least one year :) |
kb9vqf | Hmm.... |
kb9vqf | Might be hard |
kb9vqf | We might need to release a preview then |
samelian | next time we must made smaller steps |
kb9vqf | Of course :) |
samelian | right now we trying to make a huge jump |
kb9vqf | and it isn't working very well...I know.... |
kb9vqf | :-P |
kb9vqf | CMake is the biggest problem |
samelian | progressing, but slowly |
kb9vqf | I am tempted to release 3.5.13 after CMake is done and most of the bugs are fixed |
kb9vqf | We'll do udev later |
samelian | yes, good ideea |
kb9vqf | Qt4 later as well |
kb9vqf | meaning no more tqtinterface changes until after 3.5.13 |
kb9vqf | We also need to look at applying any security updates to Qt3 |
kb9vqf | I may need to stuff Qt3 into a project SVN tree |
samelian | i'm angry when I think that I must waste my little to port kdegames to cmake :) |
samelian | little time* |
kb9vqf | do it last :) |
kb9vqf | or better yet let MutantTurkey do it :) |
samelian | I will ask MutantTurkey to do this |
kb9vqf | Sure |
kb9vqf | It would be a good learning module anyway |
kb9vqf | nice and small |
samelian | yes |
samelian | and not very critical, in case of mistakes |
kb9vqf | right |
samelian | the same thing for kdeedu, etc |
samelian | I think that some apps must be moved to core |
samelian | like amarok |
samelian | we must to wipeout noatun and put amarok instead |
samelian | I think that we do not waste time porting useless apps to cmake |
kb9vqf | Well, I don't know |
kb9vqf | Some people may like noatun |
kb9vqf | Let's just put them on the bottom of the list |
samelian | actually I ported already almost all applications used by me :) |
kb9vqf | I know david has a list on the Wiki |
samelian | remained only ktorrent and k3b |
kb9vqf | is it up to date? |
samelian | I will check the list |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | thanks |
samelian | some of packages are not commited yet to snv |
samelian | svn |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | only list the ones that are in SVN |
samelian | for example, kdepim is usable by me, but only kmail are ported |
samelian | I do not using another apps from kdepim |
samelian | right now I try to finish at least one big package, kdepim |
samelian | then I will try to finish kdenetwork |
Strangelv | Is there anyone eles maintaining Noatun? |
Strangelv | "such as a Qt 4 port? |
Strangelv | "If we're heading to Qt4 anyway... |
samelian | i'm not sure |
*Strangelv is a big fan of XMMS1, but no longer has a package for it | |
Strangelv | :: has been using VLC as a substitute |
samelian | xmms was great |
Strangelv | s/::/\/me/ |
*Strangelv basically uses VLC for everything these days | |
samelian | hehe, I use mplayer for this :) |
samelian | maybe sometime we will implement a really good trinity frontend for video |
samelian | video playback, ofc |
Strangelv | "IMO, Once we're on Qt4 there's little reason to not grab things from KDE4 that work |
Strangelv | "So thoes things likeuly shouldn't get teh same level of attention as things that are only going to continue becaues we're teh ones continuing them |
Strangelv | It's why I'm not whining more about bugs in Konqueror. Qt4 Konqueror seems to address them. |
samelian | i'm not sure that we can borrow too much stuff from kde4 |
*Strangelv needs to install Qt4 Konqueror one of these months | |
Strangelv | If I understand, there are other desktop environments that grab from others |
samelian | because kde apps are very sticky to kde environment, unlike gnome apps |
Strangelv | "sticy in what way? |
samelian | using too much specific kde things |
Strangelv | Another possibility is to fork KDE4 Konqueror... hmm. |
Strangelv | "Ans in integration |
samelian | backporting are very hard |
samelian | writing a webkit browser are very simple, using qt4's webkit module |
samelian | the problem is with plugins, security, etc |
samelian | creating a browser is a science itself |
Strangelv | "WE're probably stuck with Qt3 until we're ready to pull the trigger on TOt |
Strangelv | "Once we do, we can jettison Qt3 |
Strangelv | And likely bundle it for other applications and efforts to use |
samelian | ATM i'm not sure how easy will be to create an application which mix tqt with qt4 |
Strangelv | ::: http://noatun.kde.org/ -- looks like thqr is no upstream for Noatun |
Strangelv | "And I don't beleive we have teh coders to spare for it, unless someone's erally into it. ...or it's really easy |
samelian | actually seems unmaintained at all |
Strangelv | "I'm assuming mixing TQt and Qt4 isn't a problem, but I wasn't actually thinkincg of mixing the two in teh same application |
Strangelv | "if anyoen's maintaining packages for it, that's some level of maintenance, just not where it counts. I used to use the Papaya Mud client, until I discovered that the 64 bit builds of it blew up before I could connect to ASI MOO |
Strangelv | "I tried it again a wek or two ago. Still goes kablooey after 2-3 years= |
Strangelv | A certian medium sized RAM and SSD manufacturer is running CentOS and KDE 3.3 |
Strangelv | "for their workstations |
Strangelv | So there's still an installed 3.x base that has'nt moved on to something else that we can try to be sure to cover. Anyone working on RHEL/CentOS? |
samelian | you mean, if something is porting trinity to centos 5.x? |
Strangelv | "ja |
samelian | i'm not sure that it will be possible |
Strangelv | Complications? |
samelian | I guess yes, because centos' old libraries |
Strangelv | So the version running KDE 3.3 might be newer than I'm assuming? |
samelian | I guess that trinity 3.5.12 can be ported |
*Strangelv wonders if dumping Qt3 might not be as easy to do as he's assumed if theer's still a major distro that doesn't support Qt4 | |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: when we have more people that can actually code, and probably better when 3.5.13 comes out |
Xu_R | we should have a 3.5.13.50 release just to celebrate the fixing of bugs xD |
*Strangelv wonders how wallpaper images are stored in memory. In the format, completely uncompressed, other? | |
Strangelv | for example, is theer any actual advantage to using JPEG in terms of memory savings? |
*Strangelv has a counterpart for soft-green.jpg that as a png has a filesize of 3.1 MB | |
kb9vqf | uncompressed |
Strangelv | "so disk compression is irrelevant. What I suspected |
Strangelv | Bit depth similarly irrelevant? |
kb9vqf | yes |
kb9vqf | that is all set by Xorg |
kb9vqf | qt will convert the image to native xorg bitmaps before display IIRC |
Strangelv | "so a 1920x1200 image of any nature is always going to be tens of megabytes |
kb9vqf | yes |
kb9vqf | that's one reason why video cards have so much RAM |
kb9vqf | if you have a small screen the image will be scaled down before storage in RAM |
Strangelv | "So as soon as I'm happy with how it looks there are no usefu/l optimizations |
Strangelv | noted |
kb9vqf | basically |
kb9vqf | we like png because it is lossless |
Strangelv | Thank you |
kb9vqf | np |
*Strangelv likes PNG for much the same reason. | |
Strangelv | "Gets rid of the main problem GIF has |
Strangelv | Well, there was also the patent issue, but I believe that's gone in all jurisdictions by now |

david | hello |
MutantTurkey | hey |
MutantTurkey | david? |
Guest32813 | Yep nickserver bit my name again :) |
Guest32813 | Hye Q about cmake - howto handle .la & .moc files that get built? |
MutantTurkey | no idea |
MutantTurkey | how to do la or libraries of any sort yet |
MutantTurkey | I haven't got that figured out yet. |
MutantTurkey | :/ |
MutantTurkey | are you working on kdegraphics as well? i saw some stuff in the ML. |
MutantTurkey | wish i had svn write access >.> cause i have a few more apps done |
Guest32813 | I'm looking at kwin-style-crystal and it has a crystal.la that I know I need - tde-add-library? |
MutantTurkey | yes |
MutantTurkey | but i do not know how the functions looks |
Guest32813 | I'm just picking though other files and hoping I can figure it out... |
MutantTurkey | :P yeah thats what I am doing |
MutantTurkey | cmake isn't really so complicated. |
MutantTurkey | you know how to do icons and such as well? |
Guest32813 | So far it looks like tde_add_library ( kwin-crystal SHARED AUTOMOC SOURCES <then a whole sting of sources> |
Guest32813 | No I have no clue on icons :( |
MutantTurkey | yeah i saw some confustion on the ML. |
MutantTurkey | and jeez i am quite annoyed. my email client on my phone only lets me top post D: |
Guest32813 | It looks like the tde_add_icons is the icon trick -- what goes after it is still a blur :) |
MutantTurkey | kde_add_icons( nameofprogram ) |
MutantTurkey | thats it :P |
MutantTurkey | basically. |
Guest32813 | Ya, but how do you choose the icon? Find one you like and associate it? |
MutantTurkey | no? |
MutantTurkey | It gives you all of them installed |
MutantTurkey | look in kruler, it installs all those icons, hi12-app-kruler.png for example, and installs them in the proper location |
Guest32813 | Yes, kruler has been my go-by with a peek at kview as well |
MutantTurkey | i did the cmake lists for kruler :) |
MutantTurkey | glad to be of service |
Guest32813 | I'm using a dir structure of applications/kwin-style-crystal but I'm using the 1.0.7 crystal source. |
MutantTurkey | what source do we have? |
Guest32813 | You did a great job on both kruler and kview - that's why I'm starting with them |
Guest32813 | TDe has 1.0.5 crystal |
MutantTurkey | yeah. I try to keep it simple |
MutantTurkey | yeah. we need a serious code audit and overview. |
MutantTurkey | I am glad darrell had such a strong message today |
Guest32813 | It looks like Bugs, Bugs, Bugs is on the horizon, but I've got to figure out how to read this stuff before I can do any good :) |
MutantTurkey | bug fixing is a good thing, I do not think any of them will be deep either |
Guest32813 | Deep is a realitive term :) I can stare at the simple ones for hours.... |
Guest32813 | Well, I'm going to work on crystal a bit more and get the kids in bed. I'll follow up tomorrow and let you know how I did :) |

MutantTurkey | samelian: hey how do I include a seperate library? |
samelian | MutantTurkey: what you mean "include"? |
MutantTurkey | the program (kamera) includes gphoto2.h |
MutantTurkey | so in a regular make file it would be just like -lgphoto2 |
MutantTurkey | but i don't know how to add the library to the includes |
MutantTurkey | make sense? |
samelian | first, you must detect if ghoto2 exists |
MutantTurkey | yes, how? |
samelian | depends |
MutantTurkey | ? |
samelian | if you luck, it come with pkg-config file |
MutantTurkey | It does. |
samelian | if worst case, you must check how autoconf detect it |
MutantTurkey | pkgconfig detects it nicely |
samelian | then, check how I did detection in ConfigureChecks.cmake |
samelian | for knetworkmanager, for example |
MutantTurkey | ok |
MutantTurkey | where is knetwork manager? |
MutantTurkey | ah i got this |
MutantTurkey | samelian: okay i made a ConfigureChecks.cmake, it detects the library, now what? |
samelian | now you must added ${GPHOTO2_LIBRARIES} where is needed |
MutantTurkey | ok thank you |
MutantTurkey | samelian: I add that to the include_directories{} ? |
MutantTurkey | or link_directories{} ? |
samelian | depends |
samelian | if you need headers, include |
MutantTurkey | I'll need to link it also. so both? |
samelian | if you need to link to libgphoto, in LINK section |
MutantTurkey | ok |
samelian | check how I did in applications/knetworkmanager/knetworkmanager-0.8/src/CMakeLists.txt |
samelian | for DBUS_QT3_INCLUDE_DIRS |
MutantTurkey | i don't have applications, D: |
MutantTurkey | let me clone it now |
MutantTurkey | okay next question, samelian. how do i build a library ( i think that is it) a .la file? I see it used in the Makefile.am often and do not know what to do |
samelian | don't wory about .la files, are generated automatically |
MutantTurkey | but i don't need to build an executable? i just need to build "kio_kamera.la" |
MutantTurkey | so what function to i use? |
samelian | depends |
samelian | I guess that is a module |
samelian | check in makefile.am for -module flag |
samelian | I think is kde_module_LTLIBRARIES |
samelian | so, is a module |
MutantTurkey | ok |
samelian | http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/wiki/bin/view/Developers/CMakeConversionProcess#tde_add_kpart |
samelian | do not confuse modules with libraries |
MutantTurkey | yes there is a -module flag |
samelian | also, for libraries you must build it without "lib" prefix |
samelian | but for modules, leave it as is |
MutantTurkey | ok |
samelian | for example, if your library is named "libblabla", use as name target "blabla" |
samelian | for module use it as is, "libblabla" |
MutantTurkey | right |
MutantTurkey | hmmm. this is weird. i used "tde_add_kpart" and it makes an .so |
samelian | if you forget this rule, you will be in big trouble |
MutantTurkey | is that right? |
samelian | yes, it is |
MutantTurkey | what about the .la? |
samelian | .la is actually am automake legacy |
MutantTurkey | oh okay |
samelian | is created automatically at install phase |
MutantTurkey | but it says it should be called "kio_kamera.la" |
MutantTurkey | instead should it be kio_kamera.so |
samelian | yes, because is automake |
MutantTurkey | or just kamera.so? |
samelian | this is module, the right name is "kio_kamera.so" |
MutantTurkey | ok thaks |
MutantTurkey | and its DESTINATION is ${PLUGIN_INSTALL_DIR}? |
samelian | yes |
samelian | in 99% of cases, destination for modules are ${PLUGIN_INSTALL_DIR} |
samelian | ${PLUGIN_INSTALL_DIR} is /opt/trinity/lib/kde3 |
MutantTurkey | ok |
MutantTurkey | crpa. |
MutantTurkey | crap' |
MutantTurkey | i just had it working then i broke it :[ |
MutantTurkey | lol |
samelian | hehe |
MutantTurkey | hmmm, now that i am using tde_add_kpart it can't find GPHOTO2 again |
MutantTurkey | http://ix.io/1w5 |
samelian | you receive errors? |
MutantTurkey | yes |
samelian | show me |
samelian | also, show me how you detect gphoto2 |
MutantTurkey | no, because it was working before, the only change was the cmakelists. |
MutantTurkey | http://ix.io/1w6 |
samelian | show me how you detect gphoto |
MutantTurkey | http://ix.io/1w7 |
samelian | seems fine |
samelian | is detected, right? |
samelian | i'm pretty sure that you don't need BUILD_KAMERA |
samelian | because is individual application |
MutantTurkey | what? |
MutantTurkey | why not? |
samelian | you can't build kamera without BUILD_KAMERA flag, right? |
MutantTurkey | no |
samelian | so, is useless flag |
MutantTurkey | what? |
MutantTurkey | the point of the flag is so i can build with it |
MutantTurkey | with -DBUILD_KAMERA=ON i can build it |
samelian | if a flag cannot be deactivated, is useless |
MutantTurkey | without the flag it doesn't do anything |
MutantTurkey | it can be deactivated? |
samelian | sure |
samelian | remove conditional things related to BUILD_KAMERA flag |
MutantTurkey | why? |
MutantTurkey | and where |
MutantTurkey | i am confused |
samelian | because is useless |
samelian | if a flag cannot be put to OFF, is useless |
samelian | for example, remove if( BUILD_KAMERA ) line from configurechecks |
samelian | and correspondent endif(), of couse |
samelian | show me main cmakelists as well |
MutantTurkey | why? we only need to check that if we want to build_kamera |
samelian | so, why I will start to build kamera package, if I won't kamera |
MutantTurkey | you lost me. |
samelian | kamera is independent application or is part of kdegraphics? |
MutantTurkey | oh. |
MutantTurkey | it is an independent application |
MutantTurkey | oh nevermind |
MutantTurkey | sorry for being confused. |
MutantTurkey | since it is a part of the entire package, we should just build it no matter what? |
samelian | nope, my mistake |
MutantTurkey | D: |
samelian | my guess was that kamera is independent package |
samelian | in this case, it's ok |
samelian | ok, nevermind :) |
samelian | try to run: |
samelian | make VERBOSE=1 |
samelian | and show me the log |
MutantTurkey | ok |
samelian | if you link kio-shared, kdeui-shared is not necessary |
MutantTurkey | samelian: when i change it back to "tde_add_executable" it builds fine. |
MutantTurkey | but links wrong |
samelian | of course, these is no main() function |
samelian | show me the log for executable and for kpart |
MutantTurkey | log? just the output? |
samelian | yes |
samelian | output |
MutantTurkey | this is executable: http://ix.io/1w8 |
MutantTurkey | this is kpart: http://ix.io/1w9 |
samelian | cleanup build tree, and try again |
MutantTurkey | how? |
MutantTurkey | make clean? |
samelian | rm -rf *; cmake /path/to/src blabla |
samelian | make clean is not enough |
samelian | then show me entire output, including cmake output |
MutantTurkey | dude i am so lost D: |
MutantTurkey | hold up I'll be back in a efw |
MutantTurkey | few' |
samelian | haha, don't worry, take your time |
samelian | ping me when you ready |
MutantTurkey | okay |
MutantTurkey | samelian: got it fixed! |
MutantTurkey | it was the LIBGPHOTO2 not GPHOTO2 to fix it |
samelian | hehe |
samelian | ok |
MutantTurkey | yep :) |
MutantTurkey | i think i should make alist of stuff i have done |
MutantTurkey | like a chart |
MutantTurkey | of what is done and not. |
MutantTurkey | so we can stay orginized |

samelian | for example kgantt |
samelian | what is this? |

MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: hey, so do you think it would be a good idea to get a list of the cmake progress |
MutantTurkey | like a table of what has been completed and what not. |
kb9vqf | Yes |
MutantTurkey | in the wiki |
kb9vqf | I believe David Rankin started one |
MutantTurkey | okay, I'll try and put it together |
MutantTurkey | oh cool |
MutantTurkey | he has one for applications/ i think |
MutantTurkey | David is sure alot of help |
kb9vqf | Yes he is :) |
kb9vqf | as is samelian |
*kb9vqf likes it when the various teams function properly | |
MutantTurkey | I am making good progress on kdegraphics |
MutantTurkey | agreed |
MutantTurkey | damnit, after i broke my finger i cannot type properly and i resorted to using just my pinky and my index finger as well as some other fingers, but i never use my middle finger. |
Xu_R | what? |
Xu_R | oh |
*kb9vqf can type pretty quickly with one hand if he needs to :) | |
MutantTurkey | its odd. |
Xu_R | no wonder Trillian was flashing rapidly |
MutantTurkey | yeah i mean i am a fast typer |
MutantTurkey | and my left hand is perfect it's funny |
MutantTurkey | my right hand just never learned how to do it properly |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: NetworkManager is not HAL-dependent since the June 2009 commits |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | good to know |
kb9vqf | knetworkmanager uses DBUS |
kb9vqf | so it should be OK |
MutantTurkey | what's wrong with dbus? |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: yup yup ^^ |
MutantTurkey | dbus is great :) |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Nothing :) |
Xu_R | dbus is awesome :D |
kb9vqf | Although I would say that like any other tool it has its limits |
kb9vqf | dcop and dbus overlap somewhat, but each can do things that the other cannot |
Xu_R | true. but with enough programming, it can expand its reach :) |
kb9vqf | global broadcast anyone? |
Xu_R | oooh! oooh! lol |
kb9vqf | When I see that in DBUS then we can get rid of DCOP |
kb9vqf | Until then....not really |
kb9vqf | :) |
MutantTurkey | I bet if we added a dbus patch, dbus would accept it. |
kb9vqf | And this would be after the CMake port, the udev/upower port, the bugs on the bugtracker, etc, etc, etc? |
Xu_R | if you could wire dcop to dbus it'd be a hell of a lot nicer too :P |
MutantTurkey | :P |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: lol yes, we've got a long way to go |
MutantTurkey | WHY IS IT ALL THE CUTE CHICKS I MEET HAVE BOYFRIENDS |
Xu_R | ...LoL. |
MutantTurkey | D: |
MutantTurkey | and have no concept of the computer, still looking for a cool nerdy chick. |
Xu_R | anyways, just putting this out there: pardon my stalled progress, schoolwork always takes priority over all this :P just making sure you know that. |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: what are you working on? |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: packaging Trinity for Mandriva, Fedora, and openSUSE |
Xu_R | as well as: working on a kernel, working on another distribution, working on a LFS project, and such... >_> |
MutantTurkey | oh sweet |
MutantTurkey | yeah, I've got about a zillion projects too |
Xu_R | isn't it just great? lol |
MutantTurkey | i guess |
MutantTurkey | jeez i need samelian D: |
Xu_R | (sarcasm... but it's hard to detect on irc :P) |
Xu_R | umm... it's 4AM in samelian' |
Xu_R | s time |
MutantTurkey | thats why you gotta do </sarcasm> |
MutantTurkey | so people know |
Xu_R | lol |
MutantTurkey | why is it 4am D: gosh. |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: he's +2, we're -5 |
MutantTurkey | ah that explains it. |
Xu_R | yup D: |
Xu_R | hmm.. that makes me wonder... kb9vqf never told us his timezone :P |
Xu_R | unless he's est too, which i'm going to assume. |
MutantTurkey | Chicago |
Xu_R | ah... so -6. |
MutantTurkey | yes |
Xu_R | hmm... well, my build server is completely busy (like, 3 cpus are building packages and a 4th cpu is using the irc bot, the ldap server, the wuala client, and the OS) |
Xu_R | hmm.. |
*Xu_R goes to rewatch some prince of tennisssss | |
MutantTurkey | what kind of cpu? memory etc |
Xu_R | amd athlon x2 quad core 64-bit :) |
Xu_R | and 6 GB memory |
MutantTurkey | hold jeesus |
Xu_R | my main computer (this one) is intel quad-core 6 gb mem :P |
MutantTurkey | damned you sir. |
MutantTurkey | i have a 1.6ghz intel atom n330 .__. |
MutantTurkey | 2gigs of ram (which is actually way more than i need tbh) |
MutantTurkey | I need to figure out how to include libsane with cmake hrm |
Xu_R | :( |
Xu_R | DAMN IT, sCREW YOU GOOGLE VOICE CALLING TO CHINA |
MutantTurkey | hahah lol |
Xu_R | connection keeps dropping |
Xu_R | grrr |
Xu_R | woah |
Xu_R | the dial tone ringer just changed... |
MutantTurkey | don't get me started, my internet has been crapping out as of late. |
MutantTurkey | dial tone is almost an F, so if you need to tune your guitar and you are stuck without a tuner, just get on your phone. |
Xu_R | LOL |
MutantTurkey | D: cmake makes me unhappy |
Xu_R | heh |
Xu_R | you should see the cmake source tarball |
Xu_R | then you'd be VERY unhappy |
MutantTurkey | wish david would be around |
MutantTurkey | what do you mean the cmake source tarball? |
Xu_R | the actual cmake source - building cmake itself is the biggest pain in the ass. |
MutantTurkey | oh i can imagine |
MutantTurkey | talk to you guys tomorrow, hopefully samelian is on. night |
*samelian has joined #trinity-desktop | |
*K`zan has joined #trinity-desktop | |

*Space_Man_ has joined #trinity-desktop | |
*samelian has joined #trinity-desktop | |
*MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | samelian: hey got a problem |
MutantTurkey | I need to include libsane, with a standard make file i would just use the -lsane flags, but I don't know how with the whole cmake system, (pkg-config won't find it) |
samelian | are you sure that sane did not provide pkg-file? |
MutantTurkey | yes |
MutantTurkey | it doesn'ty |
MutantTurkey | the pc file isn't included with sane |
MutantTurkey | it really typically wouldn't be needed I would just use -lsane |
samelian | in this case, you're on your own :) |
samelian | you must to do your own checks |
samelian | at least to detect include files and libs |
samelian | check configure.in, how autotools guys did |
MutantTurkey | ok |
MutantTurkey | samelian: will i ever get write access to push all this stuff/ |
MutantTurkey | ? |
samelian | svn access, you mean? |
MutantTurkey | yes |
samelian | svn is under our control, you must to ask KDE sysadmins |
samelian | is NOT |
MutantTurkey | wow that is not good |
MutantTurkey | so kde4 uses cmake? |
MutantTurkey | Hmmm, I am stuck |
MutantTurkey | i cant see how they did it with autotools |
samelian | not kde4 |
MutantTurkey | i think i may just define a variable that does -lsane ? |
*field_it has joined #trinity-desktop | |
samelian | you can't assume that libsane exists |
samelian | you must check for it |
samelian | and you must check for headers as well, because is -devel package are not installed, headers are not present |
MutantTurkey | oh i forgot |
MutantTurkey | because in archlinux they don't seperate the packages |
MutantTurkey | I HATE HATEHATEHATEHATE THAT ABOUT DEBIAN ETC. |
MutantTurkey | it is awful |
MutantTurkey | always searching for the headers. |
MutantTurkey | it simplifies everything to not include them, especially since its usually a very small file. |
MutantTurkey | archlinux is made of devels, no sense seperating the packages |
arw__ | depends on what you would like to use the system for. there are two reasons not to install -devel: disk space and security |
MutantTurkey | disk space? It is not typically more than a few text files |
MutantTurkey | and how does security play a part? |
arw__ | e.g. on some small wireless router or something i can't afford having some big lib with debug symbols, and even a few hundred kB of headers are problematic |
MutantTurkey | agreed, which make sense for a micro distro for routers |
arw__ | and security is a weak argument, yes. theoretically you could prevent an attacker from compiling exploits on your box by not installing a -dev environment |
MutantTurkey | right... that is a bit far fetched i think. |
arw__ | but i agree that both arguments are not that convincing |
MutantTurkey | just for the annoyance of having to install both headers and packages always bothered me. |
arw__ | oh, and preventing legitimate users from installing software into their homes was the other part of the security argument. but thats equally stupid. |
MutantTurkey | if you don't protect your account, that is an different issue |
arw__ | the nice thing about the split between -devel and other packages is that -devel may install more dependencies |
MutantTurkey | i like how pidgin does protection, all of your passwords are in plain text. why? because it relys on linuxs well designed security systems to avoid the need for more security |
MutantTurkey | and with Arch, there is just a makedepends() variable. |
MutantTurkey | so you don't need it if you are just installing |
arw__ | and you do some 'install devel-deps $package' or something? |
arw__ | the thing I find more annoying than missing -devel is missing -doc... |
samelian | in most case -devel is not necessary at all |
samelian | at least on binary distros |
MutantTurkey | I think it should be included |
MutantTurkey | arw__: we include everything together, except documentation (at least i think, not sure, i think larger docs are seperate, like gtk) |
*TokRa has joined #trinity-desktop | |
*field_it1 has joined #trinity-desktop | |
*K`zan has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | samelian: still can't figure that out D: |
samelian | hehe |
samelian | why not |
samelian | MutantTurkey: show me how you attempted to detect libsane |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: you said you wanted to move trinity away from svn.kde.org. just wondering, when do you plan to do that? |
Xu_R | because it'd be easier for people to contribute fixes |
samelian | and easier to broke things :) |
Xu_R | that's why I like git better: branching, merging, and such... :P |
arw__ | you forgot the two most important arguments (imho): speed and the ability to work "offline" |
Xu_R | arw_: yes, that too :P |
arw__ | oh, and git bisect! |
Xu_R | i don't do that too often though xD |
Xu_R | there's gitimmersion.com that |
Xu_R | 's a great tutorial for git :D |
arw__ | no, but in those situations where you need it, git bisect is often the only tool for the job. |
Xu_R | true true. but i'm never in those situations xD |
arw__ | e.g. i've found an obscure linux kernel problem on a network card within some 5000 commits. impossible without bisect. |
Xu_R | wow.... you've got a sharp eye. i probably couldn't see it anyway even with bisect XD |
Xu_R | (i'm oblivious. I was looking for milk when it was in front of me) |
arw__ | no, it was something like "box hangs at NIC initialization with kernel B and doesn't hang with A. bisect all kernels in between and tell the maintainer which commit broke it." |
arw__ | the maintainer did the rest. |
arw__ | so "found a bug" may be a little exaggerated. but otoh it made for a far better bugreport than "some obscure revision of that NIC hangs at boot". |
Xu_R | xD some obscure revision lol |
arw__ | well. i've looked at the source of that network device driver. there are something like 50 different kinds of MACs and PHYs plus tons of variants of almost everything. |
arw__ | and i've had that problem with one specific onboard card in a new box which nobody else had. even the realtek guy was surprised at what that thing did... |
arw__ | therefore "obscure" |
MutantTurkey | I say we don't use git. |
MutantTurkey | as much as i like git, ( i use it for all my hosting, other than google code hosted projects ) switching over is a hassle |
arw__ | but in the end it got fixed in something like 5 days total. no small part thanks to git bisect. |
MutantTurkey | especially since svn works. |
Xu_R | arw__: well, better to find the breakage than just complain :) git works for that part |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: yea, the svn -> git migration might be a pain |
arw__ | and there is always git-svn to work with. |
MutantTurkey | you can switch, it is just a hassle |
MutantTurkey | I do not think that it is worth it, however something important is to get our own svn repos |
arw__ | no, i mean you can point git-svn at the svn server and use git as a frontend to the svn server. that way you can use git while the server stays svn. |
MutantTurkey | look, if we were using git, i would say stay with git, it's not about using one or the other, its about keeping it out of the way. |
MutantTurkey | we have MUCH bigger problems :) |
*arw__ shuts up already :) | |
Xu_R | lol |
MutantTurkey | anyway, i wish david was around here more often |
MutantTurkey | I hate not knowing where everyone is with progress and such. |
Xu_R | I have a proposition, since we are flooding trinty-devel so much with cmake fixes: |
Xu_R | let's finish all the packages first (have people working on such) |
Xu_R | and then have a bug-squashing day |
MutantTurkey | haha we just need more people working on cmake |
MutantTurkey | I mean i am trying but progress is slow and i don't understand so much. |
Xu_R | the problem is, we have too many people trying too many things... |
MutantTurkey | regardless, we need to start having meetings i think |
Xu_R | the meetings I agree.. |
MutantTurkey | like once a week meet up. |
MutantTurkey | in here |
MutantTurkey | or whatever. |
Xu_R | sometime before samelian goes to sleep xD |
MutantTurkey | make some announcements, the cmake team can say what we have done, etc, tim can talk about changes |
MutantTurkey | yeah we will have to coordinate times and sucvh |
MutantTurkey | anyway I'm off to watch some sean connery film :p |
MutantTurkey | samelian: I have not found a way to do it, other than the pkg-config way which doesn't work |
MutantTurkey | samelian: what if we just check for /include/sane.h and if it exists then build against it? |
MutantTurkey | I don't know how to script that, but i imagine that would be good way to check |
Xu_R | you know... this feels like a "let's use ietherpad" moment... |
MutantTurkey | ietherpad? |
samelian | MutantTurkey: checking for sane.h is first step |
MutantTurkey | okay, I will work on that tomorrow, I've got to get off |
samelian | check_include_file( "sane.h" HAVE_SANE_H ) |
MutantTurkey | check for sane.h then maybe libsane.so or something |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: yea, check it out. collaboration :) |
MutantTurkey | :) |
MutantTurkey | okay c'yall later |
Xu_R | I'm going to bring up this topic on trinity-devel |
MutantTurkey | good idea |
Xu_R | topic brung up on trinity-devel |
Xu_R | someone took trinity.ietherpad.com D: |
samelian | please slap me when I write wrong in english :) |
samelian | otherwise I will not learn it :) |
Xu_R | samelian: :P |
Xu_R | samelian: can you please mark your vote on http://lincom.ietherpad.com/8 ? (password "helloworld") this way I can keep track of votes reliably |
samelian | time to sleep |
samelian | gn all |
Xu_R | night samelian! |
Xu_R | ping kb9vqf, arw__, MutantTurkey, Strangelv, TokRa: I can use your feedback! see the lastest email from me on trinity-devel about weekly meetings :D |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: Honestly I don't know if I can commit to once per week every week |
kb9vqf | My free time comes in fits and spurts |
kb9vqf | As long as you don't need me then it's a good idea :) |
kb9vqf | I can see about setting up a meeting feature for tbottu |
kb9vqf | what do you need? |
kb9vqf | just the ability to record the meeting? |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: something similar to this: http://wiki.debian.org/MeetBot |
kb9vqf | I may have to give tbottu a brain transplant and switch to supybot |
kb9vqf | :-P |
Xu_R | XD |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: add on here: http://lincom.ietherpad.com/8 |
Xu_R | then add on here: http://lincom.ietherpad.com/9 |
kb9vqf | Be warned I may not get to it for a few days yet |
kb9vqf | Or a week |
kb9vqf | or two.... |
kb9vqf | No sure |
Xu_R | or never... xD |
kb9vqf | *not |
kb9vqf | Hehe |
kb9vqf | I still have a request in for the SVN server |
kb9vqf | I don't have much free time right now |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: please comment on the links above! :) because then we can grab all those ideas together... |
Xu_R | nobody has any free time these days, not even me +_+" |
kb9vqf | OK, how is ietherpad different than our Wiki? |
kb9vqf | Other than that we may lose the meeting notes at some point in the future? |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: realtime? |
kb9vqf | that's it? |
Xu_R | and we won't lose it, I'll download a copy of it XD |
kb9vqf | Well, if you want to manage it |
kb9vqf | I'll let you handle the meetings :) |
kb9vqf | That includes posting the minutes/info to the trinity-devel mailing list |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: okees :) |
kb9vqf | The mailing list can be our backup data store ;-) |
Xu_R | but you better stop in sometime and comment xD |
kb9vqf | Fine with me |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: XD i'll export it into every type format I can xD |
kb9vqf | tbottu: ietherpad is http://lincom.ietherpad.com/9 |
tbottu | kb9vqf: ok |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: I added the link to tbottu |
kb9vqf | tbottu, ietherpad |
tbottu | kb9vqf: ietherpad is http://lincom.ietherpad.com/9 |
Xu_R | awesome :D |
kb9vqf | That's all I have to add for now :) |
Xu_R | thanks for adding! :) |
kb9vqf | np |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: You may want to announce on-list that you are handling the meetings |
kb9vqf | I'll leave it up to you to coordinate when/where |
kb9vqf | if you need the IRC channel clear just let me know ahead of time |
kb9vqf | Either that or I suppose I could register, say, #trinity-desktop-meeting |
kb9vqf | We could run supybot in there |
Xu_R | ok, that could work. |
kb9vqf | Might be a good idea to keep the general #trinity-desktop support channel open at all times |
Xu_R | done |
Xu_R | #trinity-meeting |
Xu_R | although I might keep using iEtherpad for its usefulness, that's just there just in case :) |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: We don't have the right to use #trinity-meeting |
kb9vqf | http://blog.freenode.net/2008/04/registering-a-channel-on-freenode/ |
kb9vqf | There are other "Trinity" projects out there |
kb9vqf | but there is no other "trinity desktop" |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: Sorry, wrong link: http://freenode.net/policy.shtml#channelnaming |
Xu_R | ok. |
<mode channel="#trinity-desktop" nick="kb9vqf" time="2011-03-07T02:22:14Z">+k +O </mode> | |
<mode channel="#trinity-desktop" nick="ChanServ" time="2011-03-07T02:22:14Z">-k * </mode> | |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: You may want to announce on the trinity-devel list that you will be handling all aspects of the meetings, including scheduling |
kb9vqf | That way I won't get queries about them :) |
Xu_R | OK, will do :) |
kb9vqf | Thanks |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: i'll announce it a bit later, i'm tired and need sleep :) night! |
kb9vqf | OK |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: as for the list for cmake, in kdegraphics is have more done |
MutantTurkey | just don't have access to add them ;) |
MutantTurkey | night |

MutantTurkey | samelian: I am working on kfile-plugins, but i am having some trouble. It is looking Qt Poppler, would that be the qt poppler from trinity? where is that? |
samelian | i'm not sure, I think is external package |
MutantTurkey | but the problem is, regular qtpoppler won't work, because it's fit for qt4 |
*TokRa has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | TokRa: hey |
MutantTurkey | any progress on the site? |
TokRa | Alert! MutantTurkey detected! |
MutantTurkey | :p |
TokRa | MutantTurkey: not yet, due to the lack of time after being ill. I estimate to get it done this week. |
MutantTurkey | feel better! and good work so far |
TokRa | 10x |
*TokRa realizes people are waiting for it. | |
MutantTurkey | It would be nice to have it ASAP |
Xu_R|School | hey all... |
Xu_R|School | wondering if you guys wanted to go/no-go on weekly meetings? |
MutantTurkey | go |
MutantTurkey | I am all for it |
MutantTurkey | I also like the check list. but i don't know why we need to use ietherpad |
MutantTurkey | I would be just as content with IRC + some simple checklist php program |
Xu_R|School | MutantTurkey: multiple people editing at the same time, know who edited what |
MutantTurkey | but this is good progress, at least we are sort of gettting that orginized |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R|School: sounds like a wiki. |
MutantTurkey | :) |
MutantTurkey | It just re solves the same problem that has been solved before. It's not bad, but i don't see the need for a chat or whatever. |
Xu_R|School | MutantTurkey: that's what kb9vqf said, but it's easier to do it in real-time. otherwise, my revision overwrites yours, and mine has less info |
TokRa | Xu_R: where to? |
Xu_R|School | TokRa: hm? a weekly meeting? |
TokRa | Ahaa. We are dispatched all over the world. |
TokRa | Or do you mean it virtually? |
MutantTurkey | virtually :p |
Xu_R|School | hehe |
Xu_R|School | can you guys fill out the times you are available? http://doodle.com/2arwhkrdzenzkzdg |
Xu_R|School | samelian: if you are go for a weekly meeting, ^^ |
Xu_R|School | kb9vqf: also useful for you too, but i know you can't do every week (see link above) |
samelian | hmm, I do not like very much meetings |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R|School: where do you find these random sites? |
MutantTurkey | samelian: no? why not. |
MutantTurkey | i think they are helpful, keeps everyone on the same page. |
samelian | maybe, but do not forget that we do this in spare time |
Xu_R|School | MutantTurkey: all around :) that's the benefit of being subscribed to a billion mailing lists and then throwing them into labels :P |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R|School: I think finding a time will be difficult. but not so hard. |
Xu_R|School | samelian: yea, I know. that's why I'm just asking :) it's ok if we don't get things done on time - as long as it's done right. real-life always takes priority. |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R|School: yeah midterms this week D; |
*techie26 has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | i doubt i'll make any progress, i am going to finish kfile-plugins and that is probably about it. |
TokRa | Xu_R|School: submitted |
Xu_R|School | that's ok, only reason for meetings is so that all of us don't die in this mess of stuff :P |
Xu_R|School | TokRa: :D |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: what do you think about me getting a table at FOSSCON for Trinity? |
MutantTurkey | I may be helping out with it and maybe could man a booth |
samelian | me and kb9vqf are flooded with too much proposals at same time :) |
Xu_R|School | lol |
MutantTurkey | lol |
Xu_R|School | samelian: hey, there's a selling point for a weekly meeting: we take a look of all these proposals and ignore half of them. xD |
TokRa | By the way: is there an option to port KDE screensavers (I like kclock.kss) to the Gnome format? |
samelian | hehe |
MutantTurkey | :P lol. I think having just a todo list will help alot |
samelian | the only "todo" at this time should be cmake, cmake, cmake |
samelian | meeting finished :) |
MutantTurkey | samelian: I have much of kdegraphics done |
Xu_R|School | :P |
MutantTurkey | what have you been working on? |
samelian | MutantTurkey: very well |
samelian | I try to finish kdepim in this life :) |
Xu_R|School | anyways, you guys can mark your options on http://doodle.com/2arwhkrdzenzkzdg, and then we can go from there :D |
samelian | it's huge |
MutantTurkey | kdepim is what? |
Xu_R|School | MutantTurkey: personal information management |
samelian | kmail & friends |
Xu_R|School | anyways, lunch is over. :) bbiab for programming class ^^ |
TokRa | cu |
MutantTurkey | samelian: oh okay. |
MutantTurkey | kdegraphics is simple :P it is a good project to start with and learn i think |
samelian | then you can continue with kdegames |
samelian | pretty useless, but must be ported as well |
MutantTurkey | okay good idea. |
samelian | MutantTurkey: you should give some of your port |
samelian | I will review it and will tell you what you wrong :) |
MutantTurkey | nothing is wrong! :P |
MutantTurkey | how do you want me to send it? |
MutantTurkey | a tar ball? |
samelian | sure |
MutantTurkey | ok |
MutantTurkey | the whole thing? |
MutantTurkey | I do not mind but it may be to large. |
samelian | just cmakefile.txt cand configurechecks |
MutantTurkey | there are many cmakelists.txt |
MutantTurkey | many many |
samelian | tar jcvf kdegraphics.tar.bz2 `find -name CMakeLists.txt` |
MutantTurkey | samelian: will that retain the directory structure? |
samelian | yes |
MutantTurkey | ok |
MutantTurkey | can i send it over? |
samelian | serghei@thel.ro |
MutantTurkey | ok |
MutantTurkey | actually i cannot send it. I am ssh'd into my desktop, how can i send it from the command line? D: |
samelian | telnet? :) |
samelian | maybe mutt, i'm not sure |
MutantTurkey | meh |
samelian | or upload it somewhere |
MutantTurkey | to ix! |
MutantTurkey | ix.io is my favorite pastebin |
MutantTurkey | because you can upload files too |
samelian | but it working for files? |
samelian | aha |
MutantTurkey | via command line |
samelian | so it |
samelian | do it |
MutantTurkey | http://ix.io/ |
MutantTurkey | when you download it, just rename to kdegraphics.tar.bz2 ok? |
MutantTurkey | http://ix.io/1wq |
MutantTurkey | oh maybe not D: |
MutantTurkey | Oh, silly me, i will upload it to my website |
MutantTurkey | http://96.245.17.6/kdegraphics.tar.bz2 |
techie26 | my first trinity install attempt from Debian 6.0.0 i386 KDE4.4.5 failed with: "unmet dependencies: kde-trinity : Depends: kde-core-trinity (>= 5:47)" . . . "Depends: kdeaddons-trinity (>= 4:3.5.5)" . . . "E: Broken packages". I am still rechecking for where I went wrong. If there is a 'most likely cause', pls point me there. |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: ^^^ |
MutantTurkey | techie26: sorry I do not use debian so I am not much help. if no one else is on the IRC i suggest a post to the Mailing List. people are quite active answering that. |
kb9vqf | techie26: Post the entire installation terminal output to pastebin |
kb9vqf | Then I can offer more helpful suggestions |
techie26 | k, thx |
samelian | MutantTurkey: never forget to install .desktop and .protocol files |
samelian | without it your app will not working at all or, worse, will crashing in untraceable way |
MutantTurkey | samelian: hmmm, which ones did i forget? I thought i rememberd them all. |
samelian | when I create an CMakeLists.txt, first of all I done "other data" section |
MutantTurkey | oh, and some i didn't even finish. |
samelian | kamera/kioslave |
MutantTurkey | I just sent you everything not just completed |
MutantTurkey | kamera/kioslave ok. |
MutantTurkey | what dir does kde_services_DATA go? |
samelian | http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/wiki/bin/view/Developers/CMakeConversionProcess#Standard_install_paths |
samelian | SERVICES_INSTALL_DIR |
MutantTurkey | ok thanks |
samelian | be very carefull, we will spend a lot of time trying to debugging uncomplete or wring written cmake files |
samelian | trinity is very fragile system |
MutantTurkey | :) okay |
MutantTurkey | many of these that aren't working i simply just got started on and didn't finish. |
samelian | bad ideea to start something before complete another one |
samelian | also, do not link useless libraries |
samelian | startup will increase |
samelian | startup time |
MutantTurkey | I do not know which is which sorry, there is no list or anything |
MutantTurkey | i need your help with that. |
samelian | it is, actually |
samelian | kio_kamera_la_LIBADD = $(LIB_KIO) -lgphoto2 |
samelian | you need only kio-shared |
MutantTurkey | ? |
samelian | kdeui-shared is useless |
MutantTurkey | ok |
MutantTurkey | fixed that |
MutantTurkey | and i added camera.protocol |
samelian | you must review all cmake files |
MutantTurkey | yes. |
MutantTurkey | I will before i submit the entire tree |
samelian | also |
samelian | tde_install_icons( camera ) |
samelian | tde_install_icons( camera_test ) |
samelian | can be written as |
samelian | tde_install_icons( camera camera_test ) |
MutantTurkey | meh. |
samelian | http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/wiki/bin/view/Developers/CMakeConversionProcess#tde_install_icons |
samelian | do not forget to rename section names |
samelian | #### kamera (executable) ######################## |
samelian | tde_add_kpart( kcm_kamera SHARED AUTOMOC |
MutantTurkey | should it be kcm_kamera? |
MutantTurkey | ok |
samelian | sure |
samelian | and not executable, but module |
MutantTurkey | oh D: |
MutantTurkey | right |
samelian | please use two spaces for intentation |
MutantTurkey | what am i using? |
samelian | tab, i think |
MutantTurkey | no i am using 2 spaces |
samelian | SOURCES kzcolorselector.cpp imageselection.cpp. |
samelian | <------>texteditselection.cpp gradientselection.cpp colorselector.cpp. |
samelian | must be: |
samelian | SOURCES |
samelian | kzcolorselector.cpp imageselection.cpp |
MutantTurkey | it is 2 spaces then 2 spaces :P |
samelian | not exactly |
samelian | tab can be set to show 10 spaces |
samelian | or one |
MutantTurkey | my editor when i hit tab it inserts 2 spaces. |
samelian | in kcoloredit i see tabs |
samelian | check it |
MutantTurkey | I just spaced it out |
samelian | also, you finish directories with /, another time without / |
MutantTurkey | does it matter? |
samelian | no, but core looking sloppy :) |
samelian | code* |
MutantTurkey | meh. |
MutantTurkey | then we need to make some sort of rules or something |
samelian | for sure |
MutantTurkey | cool |
samelian | hehe, you should rename a lot of section labels :) |
samelian | #### kruler (executable) ######################## |
samelian | tde_add_kpart( kfile_ico AUTOMOC |
samelian | is not executable, and for sure is not kruler :) |
MutantTurkey | yes sorry |
MutantTurkey | i also just notice i wasn't even building kcolorchooser :P fixed that |
MutantTurkey | and yeah, i just copy and paste alot of redundant crap |
samelian | also, avoid this kind of indent |
samelian | install( FILES kfile_ico.desktop DESTINATION ${SERVICES_INSTALL_DIR} |
samelian | ) |
MutantTurkey | ok |
samelian | is only one line, so close it with ) |
MutantTurkey | yes makes sense |
*techie26 has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | samelian: yes, it is many dumb formatting mistakes i will be sure to look over :) |
MutantTurkey | samelian: fixed up alot! i'lll keep looking |
MutantTurkey | It looks like we need to require poppler-qt3 |
*techie26 has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | unfortunately that package relys on qt3, which on ArchLinux conflicts with trinity-qt3. D: I'll have to talk to David Rankin |
samelian | aha |
MutantTurkey | so once i get the packaging worked out i can build this baby. |
MutantTurkey | samelian: what about docs |
MutantTurkey | ? |
samelian | i made some macros for docs, but don't bother with it right now |
MutantTurkey | \ok |
MutantTurkey | samelian: I got class, I'll catch you later |
samelian | see ya |

MutantTurkey | samelian: hey, I need some help with linking :/ |
samelian | hit me |
MutantTurkey | okay it can't seem to find poppler-qt3 even when i set LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/trinity/lib |
MutantTurkey | let me show you my CMakeLists |
MutantTurkey | http://ix.io/1ww |
MutantTurkey | and when i just do "ld -lpoppler-qt3" it won't find it D: |
samelian | maybe is not named poppler-qt3? |
MutantTurkey | the library is named poppler-qt |
samelian | show me output of pkg-config poppler-qt3 --cflags --libs |
MutantTurkey | oh wait! :D |
MutantTurkey | actually nevermind |
MutantTurkey | -I/usr/include/poppler -I/opt/trinity/include/poppler/qt3 -L/opt/trinity/lib -lpoppler-qt |
MutantTurkey | so I don't understand :[ |
MutantTurkey | but then ld can't find it. |
MutantTurkey | hold on gotta eat. |

techie26 | http://pastebin.com/qqLE4H0H my first install attempt may have failed due to unstable system, it became unresponsive (including no mouse curser movement) a few minutes later |
techie26 | Mar 07 07:07:26 techie26my first trinity install attempt from Debian 6.0.0 i386 KDE4.4.5 failed with: "unmet dependencies: kde-trinity : Depends: kde-core-trinity (>= 5:47)" . . . "Depends: kdeaddons-trinity (>= 4:3.5.5)" . . . "E: Broken packages". I am still rechecking for where I went wrong. If there is a 'most likely cause', pls point me there. |
kb9vqf | techie26: It is possible (likely) that one of the KDE4 metapackages conflicts with Trinity |
*kb9vqf does not remember what they are called OTOH | |
kb9vqf | You may want to post to the mailing list |
kb9vqf | We have several daily Debian users there |
kb9vqf | They would probably know what is wrong right away |
kb9vqf | Include a link to your pastebin |
techie26 | k, then if I just reinstall the distribution with only gnome, would that work? |
kb9vqf | Most likely |
techie26 | k, thanks |
kb9vqf | np |
MutantTurkey | samelian: back D: |
samelian | so, what is the problem? |
MutantTurkey | ld can't link poppler-qt |
MutantTurkey | for no apparent reason. |
samelian | show me make output |
MutantTurkey | http://ix.io/1wz |
samelian | with VERBOSE=1, please |
MutantTurkey | ok |
samelian | and show me how you detect popler-qt |
MutantTurkey | no need to. |
MutantTurkey | It finds it without a problem, all the variables are filled in properly in CMakeCache.tx |
samelian | seems that is not enough |
MutantTurkey | no, it is ld that has the problem i think |
MutantTurkey | I am not out of source. |
MutantTurkey | but it doesn't matter |
MutantTurkey | http://ix.io/1wA |
samelian | there is no -L/opt/trinity/lib |
samelian | show me poppler detection |
MutantTurkey | ok :P |
samelian | you use pkg-config? |
MutantTurkey | yes |
MutantTurkey | ix.io/1wB |
MutantTurkey | http://ix.io/1wB |
samelian | add ${POPPLERQT_LIBRARY_DIRS} to link_directories |
MutantTurkey | where is that? |
samelian | here: http://ix.io/1ww |
MutantTurkey | oh |
MutantTurkey | ok |
samelian | under ${TQT_LIBRARY_DIRS} |
MutantTurkey | good work! |
MutantTurkey | thank you very much i was quite confused |
MutantTurkey | I'll have to remember trhat |
samelian | ok :) |
MutantTurkey | It's always the obvious ones that get me messed up :P |
MutantTurkey | only a few more extensions then kfile-plugins is done |
samelian | very well |
MutantTurkey | very good' |
MutantTurkey | you can say "very well" when in agreement, "very good" as in "good job" or "good work" |
samelian | ok, thx :) |
MutantTurkey | yep. I've also been fixing some cmake grammer errors along the way. |
MutantTurkey | :-) |
samelian | ok, just try to make error strings in consistent way |
MutantTurkey | yes |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: thanks :) |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: It is good. what is this about a community meeting? |
*samelian hate korganizer :) | |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: why not get whoever's out there using trinity, and bring them together for like a community day or something? that could be fun. suggestions, new ideas, etc... for *FUTURE* consideration |
MutantTurkey | yeah agreed. |
MutantTurkey | part of the website effort, to get the community drawn in ya know? |
MutantTurkey | looking fresh, a new release soon |
kb9vqf | samelian: Can you take a look at this? http://trinity-devel.pearsoncomputing.net/?0::1449 |
samelian | kb9vqf: ok |
kb9vqf | Thanks :) |
samelian | kb9vqf: the line is TQFrame::Shape tqshape = frame->frameShape(); |
kb9vqf | samelian: Is tqt.h included in that file? |
kb9vqf | I don't know why that would fail |
samelian | tqt.h is included everywhere |
kb9vqf | Right |
samelian | with -include tqt.h |
kb9vqf | That line looks OK |
kb9vqf | So I'm not sure what's wrong |
samelian | I will try to rebuild kdelibs, to check if I can reproduce the error |
kb9vqf | OK, thanks |
MutantTurkey | samelian: ok, for ps/ I need to build kghostview, so i am starting on that now |
samelian | ok |
MutantTurkey | hmm it seems rather complicated. I will take a stab at it |
MutantTurkey | samelian: how do include a library that is in the local directory? |
samelian | depends |
samelian | what you meaning "local" |
MutantTurkey | in the same directory as the build |
samelian | ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR} |
MutantTurkey | in /kghostview/ i have to build library1 then link it to library2 then link executable to library2 |
samelian | you do not need to know where libraries are located |
samelian | cmake will find automatically |
MutantTurkey | what is noinst_LTLIBRARIES? from a makefile.am |
samelian | convenience library, staic |
samelian | static |
MutantTurkey | so how do i build it? |
MutantTurkey | kpart or add_library? |
samelian | tde_add_library( STATIC |
MutantTurkey | ok |
samelian | be careful, if you using in-source mode when you create cmake scripts, i'm pretty sure that will fail on out-of-source mode |
MutantTurkey | D: why? |
MutantTurkey | I don't understand why out-of-source is so important |
samelian | because you will forget to include some directories |
MutantTurkey | ok |
MutantTurkey | do i need to have a destination if there is no destination? |
samelian | which are available on in-source, but unavailable otherwise |
samelian | nope |
samelian | static libs are not designed to be installed |
samelian | are created only for internal linking |
MutantTurkey | ok |
MutantTurkey | static libraries are much better in my mind :) |
MutantTurkey | or static linking rather |
MutantTurkey | samelian: dude, I can't get this. It won't see dscparse.so :[ |
MutantTurkey | samelian: the whole thing builds okay, just doesn't link right |
samelian | how me cmakelists |
MutantTurkey | maybe you can take a look? ok |
MutantTurkey | here: http://ix.io/1wC |
MutantTurkey | that was not right. sorry i remove the line on LINK |
MutantTurkey | whith the ${CMAKE blah blah |
samelian | MutantTurkey: I told you, do not prefix libraries with "lib" |
samelian | will be generated liblibkghostviewlib |
MutantTurkey | samelian: no i think not |
MutantTurkey | but ok |
MutantTurkey | oh yes silly me :p |
samelian | hehe |
samelian | i'm old, but I remember that I told you |
samelian | samelianalso, for libraries you must build it without "lib" prefix |
samelian | samelianbut for modules, leave it as is |
samelian | samelianfor example, if your library is named "libblabla", use as name target "blabla" |
samelian | samelianfor module use it as is, "libblabla" |
samelian | check irc logs |
MutantTurkey | yes:P |
MutantTurkey | i don't have logs :[ does tbottu do them? |
samelian | sure |
samelian | http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/irc/logs.html |
MutantTurkey | wow sweet |
samelian | MutantTurkey: also, remove the dot from ".${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/libsdcparse.so" |
MutantTurkey | oh i got rid of the entire line. |
MutantTurkey | or was that right? |
samelian | actually for link, use sdcparse-shared |
MutantTurkey | how? its static |
MutantTurkey | it is local and static. |
samelian | then sdcparse-static |
samelian | static libs must be first |
samelian | LINK sdcparse-static kdeprint-shared |
samelian | sometimes you will have problems if you use wrong order for static libs, strange linking errors |
MutantTurkey | ok |
MutantTurkey | Linking CXX shared library libkghostviewlib.so |
MutantTurkey | /usr/bin/ld: libdscparse.a(dscparse.cpp.o): relocation R_X86_64_32 against `.rodata' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC |
MutantTurkey | so i tried with STATIC_PIC, but then it can't find it? |
samelian | sure |
samelian | you need STATIC_PIC when you linking a static against dynamic one |
MutantTurkey | oh okay |
MutantTurkey | and the name is now dscparse-static-pic ? |
samelian | nope |
samelian | remain -static |
MutantTurkey | hmm ok |
MutantTurkey | ok, but now it doesn't find it again D: |
samelian | show me cmakelists |
samelian | and the error as well |
MutantTurkey | ok |
MutantTurkey | lists: http://ix.io/1wD |
MutantTurkey | error: http://ix.io/1wE |
MutantTurkey | eh? |
samelian | link kparts-shared |
MutantTurkey | ok |
MutantTurkey | maybe i should make a list of different stuff :p |
MutantTurkey | okay cooL! |
MutantTurkey | thank you very much. I have to get off for a while, but i'll finish kghostview and kfile-plugins/ps/ later |
samelian | I must to go to sleep :) |
samelian | gn all |

MutantTurkey | ok, i have included ${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/kghostview/ for kfile-plugins/ps/ because it needs dscparse, now it builds fine |
MutantTurkey | the problem is that, it then can't find dscparse-static |
MutantTurkey | i have ${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/kghostview/ in include_directories as well as link_directories |
MutantTurkey | any ideas? |
*TokRa has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | samelian: D: |
samelian | where is built dscparse-static? |
MutantTurkey | kghostview/ |
MutantTurkey | sorry i was away |
samelian | MutantTurkey: when you build kfile-plugins, kghostview are built already? |
MutantTurkey | yes |
samelian | in this case dscparse-static must be detected automatically |
MutantTurkey | how do we do that? |
samelian | what? |
MutantTurkey | how do we automatically detect it? |
MutantTurkey | it seems to not work |
samelian | just add dscparse-static to LINK |
samelian | show me cmakelists and error |
MutantTurkey | ok |
MutantTurkey | cmakelists: http://ix.io/1wN |
MutantTurkey | error: http://ix.io/1wO |
samelian | MutantTurkey: check if libdscparse.a really exists |
MutantTurkey | you are my hero :P |
MutantTurkey | apparently it works now. |
samelian | ${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/kghostview is useless in link_directories |
MutantTurkey | must have done a make_clean :p |
MutantTurkey | okay |
samelian | in no way a module shouldn't installed into BIN_INSTALL_DIR |
MutantTurkey | yes. |
MutantTurkey | PLUGIN_INSTALL_DIR |
MutantTurkey | right? |
samelian | yes, please pay more attention to this details |
MutantTurkey | i am sorry :/ |
samelian | otherwise we will spend months to debug strange malfunctions |

MutantTurkey | samelian: ok, now i need to detect libtiff, there is no .pc file (pkgconfig). so i think i have to use check_include_file( tiff.h ) ? |
samelian | yes |
samelian | and the library, of course |
MutantTurkey | uh |
MutantTurkey | how do i do that? |
MutantTurkey | and then what do i evaluate if it found tiff.h or not |
samelian | like this: |
samelian | if( WITH_PAM AND (BUILD_KCHECKPASS OR BUILD_KDM) ) |
samelian | check_library_exists( pam pam_start "" HAVE_PAM ) |
samelian | if( HAVE_PAM ) |
samelian | check_include_file( "security/pam_appl.h" SECURITY_PAM_APPL_H ) |

samelian | tde_message_fatal( "pam are requested, but not found on your system" ) |

Xu_R | MutantTurkey: we're racking up quite a topic list XD |
Xu_R | we're going to be able to go in depth now :) I didn't even know we had quite a bit of this before I suggested this idea XD |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: I feel like an annoyance, but http://lincom.ietherpad.com/9 has been really updated since you posted... by a LOT. If you have any of your wise recommendations, put it down before I announce the meeting date? Because we're going to discuss all that in like... pretty good detail :) |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: No problem. I have looked at it some since, and there is a lot of good info there |
kb9vqf | However much of it is being handled by other individuals (samelian, MutantTurkey, etc.) :) |
kb9vqf | I will try to attend if you put the meeting on a weeked |
kb9vqf | *weekend |
kb9vqf | preferably at night |
kb9vqf | otherwise I may or may not be there :) |
*kb9vqf notes that I may or may not be able to make it anyway, but.... | |
Xu_R | I know, I'm anticipating all possibilities :) |
Xu_R | about today or tommorrow i'll have a definite time :) |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: as it turns out though, I am getting a definite for Saturday night. |
*techie26 has joined #trinity-desktop | |

Xu_R | MutantTurkey: no, a chroot inside a jail inside kvm D: |
MutantTurkey | D: |

Xu_R | Strangelv: http://lincom.ietherpad.com/9 make sure to follow pad etiquette at the top! :D add on as much as you know |
Strangelv | "The odds of my trying a build cight now are not god, but I'm attempting to keep up. At the very least it could help we figure otu wheer to cram when I have time |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: can we get that in the topic? |
Xu_R | Strangelv: hehe, well, there's a meeting that's probably going to happen Saturday Night EST (GMT-5), if you want to join in |
Xu_R | we're going to all talk in detail about this :) |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: you need to make the annoucements ASAP |
MutantTurkey | i'd need to know a few days in advance |

MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: no |
kb9vqf | ? |
MutantTurkey | because there is revision history :) |
MutantTurkey | so we can always jsut revert |
kb9vqf | OK |
kb9vqf | Here goes then... |
Xu_R | cut off D: |
Xu_R | Strangelv, what time zone are you? |
Xu_R | I can offer you time selections if you cannot choose it yourself :-\ |
Xu_R | nevermind, that works :) |
Strangelv | "I'm central daylight time, but my circadian isn't 24 hour compliant. I rotate forward |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: I'm moving it off the weekend since nobody can choose the Saturday :-\ |
Xu_R | Strangelv, got it, thanks! |
Strangelv | :: has it working witnh firefox 3.6, which sometimes crashes twvice or more a day still |
Xu_R | Strangelv: ah, i see. |
Strangelv | "although 3.0 until the later 3.5s were a lot worse |
Strangelv | "There's a reason I still use 2.0 |
Piki | actually, i'm not available every single tues/wed, it can change unexpectedly from week to week, or sometimes day to day |
MutantTurkey | 4.0 beta! |
Xu_R | Piki: are you available this coming Tuesday? |
MutantTurkey | actually it is nicer than 3.6 but very slow i think |
Xu_R | You marked it as yes... |
MutantTurkey | it is all very slow |
Strangelv | "Is that noticeably moer stable than 3.x for you? |
Xu_R | I'm goign to set one date, and then we can discuss and collaborate from there. |
Piki | Xu_R, so far, yes, but again it can change unexepectedly |
Xu_R | Piki: fine by me :) |
MutantTurkey | Strangelv: no crashes so far |
Piki | if something happens, i can review the logs |
Strangelv | "Last version I had no crashes with was 1.1 alpha on NT 5.0 -- the otry time it went down was when the memory leak took out the entire operating system |
Piki | i was thinking that we should setup a devel channel, keep our devel work separate from the support |
Xu_R | I'm going to always post meeting minutes :) |
Piki | but keep them open |
Strangelv | "I've been told 3.x is a lot more stabel when not running 64 bit |
Xu_R | Piki: way ahead of you. We have #trinity-desktop-meeting for the devel work and stuff. :) |
MutantTurkey | Piki: well the thing is |
MutantTurkey | yes, eventually |
Xu_R | I am closing the doodle poll, any last minute changes should be made in the last few seconds. |
MutantTurkey | but we are only at 15 people in the room :p |
Piki | aha! |
Xu_R | Piki: but realize, we are still going to do stuff here for now :) |
Xu_R | that is only usually for meetings |
Piki | yes |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: #trinity-desktop-meeting is ONLY for meetings :) |
kb9vqf | This is the main devel channel |
kb9vqf | For now |
MutantTurkey | right |
MutantTurkey | i agree |
Xu_R | yes, for now :) |
*Xu_R has closed the doodle poll! | |
Xu_R | sending out notice to trinity-devel in a few moments... |
Piki | i'm working on my list of packages for Ark to put on the ethernote page, but not guaranteed to actually start packaging any time soon. i can use my desktop if need be, but it's hard disk may fail soon |
Piki | wandering if i should post my list now or later |
Xu_R | Piki: go for it, but be quick :) If you are going to build off of 2008.1, I will lend you build service space. If for dockyard-devel, that'll have to wait. :-\ |
Piki | dockyard-devel, we need to concentrate on a new release, it's been too long |
Xu_R | Piki: yea... only reason I'm renewed in Ark is because bero appeared a week ago :P |
Xu_R | (and yet... he's still busy as hell.) |
MutantTurkey | Piki: post a new list it wold be good |
Piki | bero's still working on Ark, he has the installer and qtparted on qt4 now, just need to finalize some packages to release a new iso |
*Xu_R just sent the new dev email | |
Piki | MutantTurkey, i'm working on a list now |
Xu_R | Piki: please follow pad etiquette above and mark your name so that we know your colour :) |
Piki | would kbfx be worth it to build? |
Piki | Xu_R, yes :-) |
MutantTurkey | Alright, night everyone! progress is slow but it is moving along none the less. |
Piki | just as long as it moves ;-) |
Piki | cya MutantTurkey |
MutantTurkey | I will not be on tommorow, as I have much school work. |
MutantTurkey | goodnight. and good luck. |
Piki | 11PM UTC... 6PM EDT? (i always get confused when it comes to Savings/Summer versus Daylight, i really should get that straight :-) |
Xu_R | hmm... that makes it 8PM EDT here, we go forward an hour |
Xu_R | As soon as DST passes, I'll make sure to reiterate the times, because DST may screw things up a bit. |
Piki | hmm, i think DST makes us UTC-4 hours? that would technically be 7PM |
Piki | 11-4=7 |
Piki | or am i getting mixed up? |
Piki | i'll probably be on early, so i don't think it would be a problem, i'll need to get myself synchronized for future meetings though |
Xu_R | don't know |

kb9vqf | heh |
kb9vqf | TokRa: How is the new website coming? |
kb9vqf | I have enabled svn.trinitydesktop.org |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: ^^^^^^^ |
TokRa | Still isn't, I estimate to get it done around the friday. |
kb9vqf | OK |
kb9vqf | If it isn't done soon I'll have to use MutantTurkey's version ;-) |
kb9vqf | We need the new site out yesterday |
TokRa | :( |
kb9vqf | I'll give you 'till the weekend |
TokRa | ok |
kb9vqf | :) |
kb9vqf | Can you let MutantTurkey know about the svn site? |
kb9vqf | svn.trinitydesktop.org |
kb9vqf | He wanted svn for packaging |
kb9vqf | It is now available |

kb9vqf_offsite | SVN stuff is waiting |
kb9vqf_offsite | OK |
samelian | kb9vqf: the patch seems pretty ok, except some stylistic inconsistencies |
samelian | like indeting and using std:: function instead Qt one |
samelian | actually seems that original code using std:: as well |
samelian | for example, std::min(a,b) have a qt equivalent - QMIN(a,b) |
kb9vqf_offsite | In this case the std:: usage is probably OK |
kb9vqf_offsite | std:: won't change |
kb9vqf_offsite | and is platform independent |
kb9vqf_offsite | Actually, I wonder why QMIN exists at all |

aalecs | hi guys |
Piki | hi |
aalecs | got an issue; described in here, http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=456 but if someone here could help.. would be awsome :D |
tbottu | Bug 456 blo, P5, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, kdesktop crashes under altlinux sisyphus |
samelian | aalecs: esti roman? |
aalecs | da serghei :) |
samelian | in sfarsit cineva cu care ma pot intelege :) |
aalecs | pai de ce, ca pe vremea cand mai intram pe lug parca stiai si engleza (joke) |
aalecs | :)) |
samelian | eh, engleza mea nu e asa buna |
aalecs | ah |
samelian | am mai exersat pe aici |
aalecs | io pot zice la fel de rusa mea, dar de cand cu altlinux mai pricep una alta |
samelian | hehe |
samelian | ia sa vedem de ce iti crapa tie dracia |
aalecs | glibc, cred |
aalecs | da n`am timp sa recompilez de la coada, iar masinile din rusia au deja treaba multa, asa ca daca chiar e de acolo, o sa mai stau pe xfce un timp :D |
samelian | aha |
samelian | oricum noi nu prea mai avem timp de 3.5.12 |
samelian | ne chinuim sa trecem trinity la cmake |
aalecs | daca de ex ne apucam io si cu astia care mai folosim 3.5 (cas multi care stau pe 4 gen) sa compilam 3.5.13 ? ar avea rost ? |
samelian | depinde ce anume ai nevoie |
samelian | eu deja il folosesc |
samelian | am portat programele care imi trebuiau mie |
aalecs | si sub ce glibc respectiv gcc ? io am nevoie de tot de/wm pt ca desi imi place xfce, kde 3.x mi`a placut si mai mult |
aalecs | iar de gnome nu vreau sa auz :D |
samelian | teoretic ar trebui sa mearga pe orice glibc |
samelian | eu testez cu gcc 4.5.2 si e ok |
aalecs | hm, daca imi fac timp sa iau totu, sa pregatesc spec-urile si sa pun in git, da o sa fie abia in weekend |
samelian | pana acum sunt portate asa: kdelibs, kdebase, kdevelop, kwebdev, kmail, kopete, kmix si alte cateva programele mici |
aalecs | 4.5.1 aici, si glibc 2.11.3 |
aalecs | ca tot tipa astia pe niste forumuri ca de la glibc ar fi |
aalecs | si ca tde are chestii scrise aiurea |
samelian | la tine e ceva cu operatorul new |
samelian | eu am glibc 2.11.3 si nu crapa la modul descris de tine |
aalecs | dar crapa vreun pic ? |
samelian | foarte rar, dar tine cont ca eu folosesc versiune de development |
aalecs | mda, corect si asta |
samelian | altlinux e rpm based, parca |
aalecs | da, cu apt, dar rpm |
samelian | mai sunt pe aici cativa care fac pachetele pt fedora si altele asemenea |
aalecs | io trebuia sa ma ocup exclusiv de tde pe alt, dar s-a apucat altcineva mai inainte |
samelian | daca ai nevoie de ajutor pt cmake, cauta-ma aici sau pe listele de email sau chiar pe email-ul meu personal |
aalecs | asa ca colaboram si poate`l reparam |
aalecs | o sa ma inscriu pe liste |
aalecs | ca pana acu n`am apucat |
samelian | eu sunt pe IRC tot timpul, pinguieste-ma cand ai nevoie |
aalecs | aham :) |
aalecs | da cum de te`ai apucat de kde, adica sa invii mortu ? |
samelian | pai folosesc kde de cand ma stiu |
samelian | si kde4 e orice, numai kde-ul pe care il cunosc eu nu e |
aalecs | mie 4 nu`mi place deloc |
aalecs | mda, stiu |
samelian | avem planuri mari, dar deocamdata doar eu si Tim suntem capabili sa programam in Qt |
samelian | momentan ma concentrez sa termin cu cmake, da' kde e mare rau |
aalecs | indeed e mare :D |
samelian | deja am creat peste 1300 de fisiere cmake, si sunt foarte departe de finish |
aalecs | o sa incerc in weekend daca am timp sa vad sa iau 3.5.13 sa il construiesc |
aalecs | sa vad poate pleaca |
samelian | merge |
samelian | vezi ca ai nevoie de qt carpacit |
aalecs | dupa aia fain ar fi (pt mine ma rog) sa compilez si baghira pt el |
aalecs | cand stateam pe 3.5.10 il foloseam cu baghira |
samelian | ce e baghira? |
aalecs | imi placea mie cum dadea pe ecran :D |
aalecs | stai asa |
aalecs | http://kde-look.org/CONTENT/content-pre1/8692-1.jpg |
aalecs | macos like |
samelian | aha, pare interesant |
samelian | ar aduce un suflu nou |
aalecs | nui mare rahat, mergea pe 3.5.10, nu vad de ce n`ar merge mai departe |
aalecs | da |
samelian | poate il bagam in kdebase, daca e complet si merge bine |
aalecs | o sa incerc sa iau sursele si sa compilez sa vad de merge, sa fac spec pt el |
samelian | aha |
aalecs | vroiam si io sa ma apuc sa invat qt sau gtk |
aalecs | ca sa fac o aplicatie de management produse oscommerce |
aalecs | genu la aia facuta de spaniolu ala, da pt winblows |
aalecs | aista`i baghira http://baghira.sourceforge.net/ |
samelian | nu folosesc oscommerce, habar n-am |
aalecs | o chestie asa http://www.mariovaldez.net/software/oscpmwin/screenshots/200705/main_window.png |
samelian | te legi direct la baza de date? |
aalecs | da |
aalecs | ma rog o sa o vreau prin tunel |
samelian | aha, merge cu qt4 |
samelian | ala are suport nativ pt baze de date |
aalecs | da sa il implementez apoi si sub mac, win etc, merge ? |
aalecs | ca aici citisem cas probleme |
samelian | da |
samelian | nu sunt probleme |
aalecs | bun asa |
samelian | eu am facut multe aplicatii qt4 pt lin si win si sunt ok |
aalecs | misto |
aalecs | ma gandisem la qt3/4, gtk sau fltk |
aalecs | da creca o sa fie qt |
aalecs | mai ales daca`l pot face nice and shiny :)) |
samelian | dap |
samelian | gtk si fltk nu au look nativ |
aalecs | da, dar si astea pot fi facute cat de cat sa arate bine; plus ca atunci cand imi venise mie ideea |
aalecs | citisem ca ar fi mai usor de implementat |
aalecs | ca oricum mare branza nu e |
samelian | mai simplu decat qt nu cred ca exista |
aalecs | decat sa tunelezi cumva prin ssh, si sa ceri lu localhostu respectiv acces sql |
aalecs | si de acolo e sql pur |
aalecs | ma rog ca mai trebuie un modul wysiwyg pentru descrieri etc ca sa nu pui useru sa scrie html |
samelian | pt ssh poti sa folosesti direct libssh |
aalecs | da in rest nui mult |
aalecs | dap |
samelian | de fapt cu qt4 poti sa o faci direct prin https |
samelian | asincron, si tot tacamul |
aalecs | mda |
samelian | apelurile sql normale sunt blocante |
aalecs | tresa ma gandesc la asta dupa ce ma mai eliberez |
aalecs | ma rog, dacaas face un gui complet cu setari si tot, ar fi super |
aalecs | da mai am de modificat la platforma pt asta |
aalecs | desi e o platforma bunicica, e scrisa cu curu |
aalecs | inca depinde de fisiere .inc pentru limba |
aalecs | in loc sa fie totu in sql |
samelian | eu prefer sa-mi scriu singur aplicatiile e-commerce |
samelian | iar pt multilanguage merge gettext |
aalecs | desi am ceva cunostinte, nu`s as in programare, si am cam fugit de scris de la 0 |
samelian | am testat magento, da' e prea complicat ala |
aalecs | l`am vazut si eu la un amic |
aalecs | e cam bullshit |
samelian | cand folosesti chestii default, e ok |
samelian | dar cand trebuie sa scrii ceva mai deosebit, ai pus-o |
aalecs | e bullshit ca e mult mai greoi decat oscommerce |
aalecs | mie asa mi s-a parut |
samelian | este |
aalecs | ca se misca mai rau |
*David-Konqi has joined #trinity-desktop | |
samelian | asa sunt toate framework-urile MVC, toate se misca greu |
aalecs | dragut qfaxreader |
aalecs | :D |
samelian | hehe, da, l-am cam abandonat saracu; |
aalecs | vad ca te`ai bagat si pe chestii pentru cs/hl |
samelian | fax nu se mai foloseste, dar e bun pt vizualizat fisiere tiff multipagina |
aalecs | da |
samelian | da, cs-ul e un hobby :) |
samelian | sau era |
samelian | ca nu prea mai am timp de el |
aalecs | io am mai bagat urban terror |
aalecs | desi de ceva vreme am luat pauza |
samelian | am imbatranit :) |
aalecs | mai avem ceva pana la pensie :)) vestea rea e ca nu mai apucam pensia in stilu asta |
samelian | hehe, corect |
aalecs | ce platforma e wifimag > |
aalecs | proprie ? |
samelian | da |
samelian | stii prea multe despre mine, mai ceva ca SRI-ul :) |
aalecs | php, perl ? |
samelian | php |
samelian | perl nu prea il sufar |
aalecs | am cautat pe google :D |
aalecs | google stie :)) |
aalecs | de pe thel am ajuns pe magazin |
aalecs | io facusem de manuta bazat pe nopcart pt partea de comanda |
samelian | aha |
*David-Konqi has left #trinity-desktop | |
aalecs | adica treaba asta http://usideinterior.eu/personal/0506.php |
aalecs | alegi, dai calculeaza.. apoi comanda |
aalecs | pac-pac |
aalecs | :) |
samelian | interesant |
aalecs | dragut si airmax :D |
samelian | hehe, aia e versiunea 1.0 |
samelian | dupa aia m-am razgandit si l-am transformat in ce se vede pe wifimag |
aalecs | airos astea sunt linux based ? sau bsd ? |
samelian | cred ca sunt un soi de linux-uri |
samelian | are si SDK opensource |
aalecs | ca am un amic care are ceva in genu, da ii zicea altfel sistemului, si era cu ceva licenta.. desi era linux based |
samelian | probabil ceva de la mikrotik |
aalecs | nu, ca astea le stiu |
aalecs | altfel le zicea |
aalecs | ma rog, calin serbanescu, nu stiu daca stii de el, o freca si el pe lug |
samelian | da, il stiu |
samelian | ok, sa revenim la oile noastra, poluam chat-ul cu barfe :) |
samelian | asta se si logheaza |
aalecs | da :)) |
aalecs | corect |
aalecs | dupa ce ca vorbim in alte limbi |
aalecs | :D |
samelian | hehe |
samelian | lasa ca mai sunt si rusi care intre pe aici |
samelian | TokRa e lituanianca parca, mai vb si ea in rusa cu unii |
aalecs | latvia, da |
aalecs | ma rog, revenind la trinity |
aalecs | 3.5.13 e cmake sau nu ? |
samelian | fata asta lucreaza la o noua versiune de site |
samelian | da, e cmake |
aalecs | complet sau partial ? |
samelian | autotools nici nu stiu daca mai functioneaza |
samelian | partial |
samelian | acum lucrez la mizeria aia de korganizer |
aalecs | aham. macar sa se compileze ca dupa aia ii fac io spec |
aalecs | ca presimt ca specu de la 3.5.12 n`o sa se mai pupe |
samelian | rezultatul ar trebui sa fie cam la fel |
samelian | de fapt m-ar ingrijora daca nu ar fi la fel |
aalecs | ma rog, noi avem si ceva autoconf pe acolo |
aalecs | d-aia zic |
aalecs | ca va trebui periat |
samelian | cu cmake va fi infinit mai simplu |
samelian | nu ai probleme nici cu make -j 8 |
aalecs | e bun |
samelian | am inteles ca autotools nu mergea sa compileze kdelibs cu -j mai mare de 21 |
samelian | 1 |
aalecs | oricum fac build mai intai pe masina mea si apoi pun pe gear builder |
samelian | bun, merg la dus |
samelian | daca vrei ceva, imi dai ping |
samelian | si iti raspund |
aalecs | nu de alta da dupa aia ma trezesc ca stau ca vita si nu merge |
aalecs | ok |
samelian | ok? |
aalecs | enjoy |
samelian | haha |
samelian | ok |
aalecs | ne mai auzim pe aici, ma bag sa mai lucrez |
samelian | ok, spor |
aalecs | 10q |
aalecs | b-bye :-h |
samelian | see ya |
TokRa | samelian: I'm latvian, not lithuanian ;) |
aalecs | haha |
aalecs | i told him latvia :D |
TokRa | btw, some years ago I have tried to learn Romanian |
aalecs | so you understood all ? |
aalecs | :D |
TokRa | I have got books, manuals, vocabularies, but... my lazyness was way stronger than my wish :( |
aalecs | cool :)) |
TokRa | No, I didn't |
TokRa | Still I am aware of Google Translate though :P |
aalecs | i`m with russian, but i didn`t have time to go further |
aalecs | i`m searching for a book that can teach me russian in 2-3 days, 1week at most |
aalecs | :D |

Piki | i'll hopefully be pestering you guys to death soon ;-P |
samelian | kb9vqf_offsite: remove CMAKE_SKIP_RPATH argument |
kb9vqf_offsite | ok, let me fire that off |
samelian | for kdelibs you shouldn't use CMAKE_SKIP_RPATH as well |
samelian | http://www.cmake.org/cmake/help/cmake-2-8-docs.html#variable:CMAKE_SKIP_RPATH |
samelian | rpath is removed anyway at installing stage |
kb9vqf_offsite | technically I didn't set it |
kb9vqf_offsite | Debian/Ubuntu did |
kb9vqf_offsite | I am manually unsetting it now |
samelian | bad Debian :) |
kb9vqf_offsite | :) |
kb9vqf_offsite | Ah, yes, now I remember that variable |
kb9vqf_offsite | I forget why Debian shuts it off |
kb9vqf_offsite | Shuts off RPATH that is |
kb9vqf_offsite | Seems odd for a binary distro |
samelian | for arts the rpath is necessary becayse it runs mcopidl |
kb9vqf_offsite | right |
samelian | and mcopidl needs libmcop.so.1 |
kb9vqf_offsite | so should I just leave RPATH activated for tqtinterface, arts, and kdelibs then? |
kb9vqf_offsite | Or should I activate it for the entire build? |
samelian | arts and kdelibs only |
kb9vqf_offsite | ok |
*kb9vqf_offsite will probably leave it alone in tqtinterface | |
samelian | i'm not sure if there are another packages wich runs generated binaries |
*kb9vqf_offsite does not know of one | |
samelian | WITH_QT3 is necessary only for tqt |
samelian | and BUILD_ALL is necessary for splitted packages, kdelibs and above |
kb9vqf_offsite | I added the info to the Wiki |
samelian | ok |
samelian | also, you must activate desired options using WITH_SOMETHING |
samelian | is like --with |
Piki | kb9vqf_offsite, i think there's a config error on trinitydesktop.org/wiki, i tried doing a search on the developers web and it looks like it's trying to redirect to trinity.pearsoncomputing.net |
Piki | but it complains of an unsafe redirect and cancels my search |
*Roey has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Roey | hi |
Roey | what's KDE's relationship with Trinity? i.e. do they support your efforts, do they bash them, etc. |
samelian | so far, no relationship of any kind :) |

Piki | i don't know if we're keeping svn there |
Piki | other than that, none |
Roey | ah, got it |
Roey | who's Timothy here |
Roey | ? |

Piki | i think so, haven't seen him before |
Roey | I cam here after George Wright mentioned to me that he's switched to Trinity |
MutantTurkey | Piki: has David been around at all |
Roey | George Wright used to develop for KDE |
Piki | MutantTurkey, i've been on about an hour, haven't seen him |
MutantTurkey | Roey: well I'm glad you have switch to the better camp :) |
MutantTurkey | Piki: shucks. |
samelian | !seen david |
tbottu | david was last seen 2 days, 19 hours, 3 minutes and 21 seconds ago, changing nick to Guest13995. |
Roey | what do you mean, better camp? |
MutantTurkey | samelian: yeah he's not to frequent |
Piki | Roey, kde4 -> TDE |
MutantTurkey | yeah. camp as in following as in users :p |
MutantTurkey | sorry for being unclear, I always forget people are from all over the world on the internets :P |
Roey | hehehe |
Roey | I'm in washington dc :P |
MutantTurkey | samelian: haven't gotten any work done today on cmake, have tomorrow free and pretty much friday also. hopefully will be able to do some then |
MutantTurkey | Roey: sweet. philly baby xD |
samelian | good |
MutantTurkey | we are having an trinity party, and when we do. a party it shall be. |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R is in D.C, Piki is in shitts i mean pittsburgh, and me in philly |
samelian | is not very funny for me, because i'm GMT+2 :) |
MutantTurkey | D: where is that? |
*MutantTurkey awful memory | |
Roey | MutantTurkey: East Coast rocks :) |
Piki | MutantTurkey, remember the logs, we need to keep language clean :-) |
Piki | but yes, pittsburgh is pretty bad |
Roey | Xu_R: I hear you're in DC, what's this about? |
MutantTurkey | Piki: sorry D: |
MutantTurkey | Roey, Xu_R: FOSSCON is in Philidelphia this year, we could run a Trinity booth! |
MutantTurkey | I don't know if you guys would want to take the train or whatever, but its in july and would be sweet |
Piki | fosscon? |
MutantTurkey | free/open source software conference |
Piki | oh |
*samelian waste time playing with precompiled headers :) | |
MutantTurkey | Piki: would you be down to do it? |
Piki | MutantTurkey, if there's a bus that can get me there and back, and if it's not too late in the day |
MutantTurkey | its an all day event |
MutantTurkey | maybe you could crash at my place for the night or something |
Piki | the only person who could (my mom) take me won't because she thinks i want to take over the world, and the people who would can't |
Roey | cool :) |
Roey | MutantTurkey: how big of a community do you have for trinity at the moment? |
Roey | since you released 3.5.11 |
MutantTurkey | Roey: we are at 3.5.12 |
Roey | I know |
MutantTurkey | It is hard to gauge the amount of users |
Roey | I read all about it on your site |
MutantTurkey | the developer lists has really been getting busy, to the point of being hectic lately. |
MutantTurkey | i can only assume that refects the increasing interest of the users. |
MutantTurkey | we have had almost instantly people noticing when our servers are down, and tim reports web traffic has never been higher :) |
Piki | we're picking up interest pretty fast |
MutantTurkey | with the 3.5.13 release we hopefully will get alot of steam. |
MutantTurkey | I mean, I've only been around what? for a month maybe? I'm pretty new myself |
Roey | awesome |
samelian | I started working on cmake few months ago, in octomber 2010 |
MutantTurkey | Roey: one of our goals is to start packaging for alot more distros (we are working on Arch, OpenSuse, slackware, debian, ubuntu etc. so we really want to open it up to everyone |
Piki | hopefully within 1.5 weeks, i'll add Ark to the distro list |
Roey | btw, is packaging a manual endeavor or can it be scripted so that all the different distro's debs can be made at once |
MutantTurkey | Roey: we have a build farm :) |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: sent an email to trinity-devel about it, it's a go for Tuesday night 1900 |
Piki | not everybody uses debs |
MutantTurkey | its mostly just setting up the packages, testing them out, making sure no conflicts with kde 4.5 such like that |
MutantTurkey | also what Piki said. |
Piki | KDE 4.6 |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: 1900 at GMT -5? |
MutantTurkey | 4.x |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: yes |
MutantTurkey | ok |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: and nice! Why don't you host the booth XD I can't just come up from DC, you know D: |
MutantTurkey | 1900-1200=700 ok! 7pm. |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: yeah, but you could for a weekend |
MutantTurkey | it is in july also |
MutantTurkey | so no school :) |
MutantTurkey | plus I bet you can crash at my pad |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: I've got dumb summer school cause I have to clean up some credits :( and I'm heading to china for 3 weeks +_+ |
Roey | MutantTurkey: heh :) |
MutantTurkey | D: |
samelian | there is morning already, gn all :) |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: well i'll let you know closer in, if we get a table |
MutantTurkey | samelian: go sleep ;) |
Roey | whi8ch booth |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: awesome :D |
Piki | MutantTurkey, if you give the date, i can see if i can get out there |
Roey | er, which conf |
Roey | conferen e |
MutantTurkey | Roey: FOSSCON |
Xu_R | samelian: yea, go sleep sleep :) |
Roey | ooh, I didnt' know that existed |
Roey | cool |
MutantTurkey | Piki: Xu_R: gotta talk to some people |
MutantTurkey | Roey: yeah its cool (never been heard good things) |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: you might need kb9vqf to sponsor, concerning they probably will narrow eyes if ... hehe... -_-* (they still treat us like kids once we give them our age xD) |
MutantTurkey | it is free. |
Roey | parser error: clause enclosed in parenthesis grammatically incorrect |
MutantTurkey | to be a table, as long as you are open source |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: plus i have connections :) |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: :D btw, planning to add to svn soon? |
Roey | MutantTurkey: Roey: yeah its cool (never been heard good things) |
Roey | MutantTurkey: what did you mean by "never been heard good things"? |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: what for the one tim setup? |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: yea |
MutantTurkey | Roey: I haven't been, but i've heard good things |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: not yet. bio exam tommorow xD |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: lol. I've got Government, Chemistry, Precalculus friday D: |
MutantTurkey | D: next week is spring break, so i have had 3 test and a paper this week. |
Xu_R | >: your spring break is freaking huge, man. |
MutantTurkey | college :) |
Piki | it appears there's no bus going from pittsburgh to philly |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: we know, we know :P |
Xu_R | wait a minute... did samelian do a supybot-type command to tbottu? o_O |
Xu_R | (just scrolling up logs) |
MutantTurkey | Piki: my sister does it for school |
Piki | ? |
MutantTurkey | okay i talked to Jonathan D. FOSSCON coordinator just now, he says we can get a table, a small donation would be nice (he has to rent the tables lol and needs to pay out of his pocket) |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: ah, great :) |
MutantTurkey | Piki: takes the bus |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: now, to grab the logos, lots of screenshots, pamplents, and posters. xD |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: we should make a banner :P |
MutantTurkey | i have hookups with a banner maker too |
MutantTurkey | I know alot of people |
Piki | MutantTurkey, portauthority isn't showing any busses from here to philly |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: you do know a lot of people :P |
MutantTurkey | Piki: hmmm, I'll have to ask my sis |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: i do :P |
Xu_R | hehe |
Xu_R | always useful. |
Xu_R | always useful indeed. |
MutantTurkey | indeed |
Roey | indeed |
MutantTurkey | man, a trinity booth would be sweet. |
Roey | C-C-C-Combo Breaker |
MutantTurkey | lol :p |
MutantTurkey | alright i gotta go study my butt off for this exam |
MutantTurkey | i am pretty sure i am screwed. |
Xu_R | :P |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: gl :) |
Xu_R | ack! |
Xu_R | ff4 rc1 released! |
Piki | might need a greyhound bus to get to philly |
kb9vqf_offsite | MutantTurkey: Do you mind taking a look at a CMake problem for me? |
kb9vqf_offsite | It is in arts |
kb9vqf_offsite | Specifically the artsdsp wrapper script is not installed |
*kb9vqf_offsite would fix it himself if he knew more about CMake :) | |
kb9vqf_offsite | If you don't know I guess it can wait for samelian |
kb9vqf_offsite | !seen samelian |
tbottu | samelian was last seen 1 hour, 56 minutes and 7 seconds ago, saying 'there is morning already, gn all :)' in #trinity-desktop. |
Xu_R | grrr... I keep putting in trinityproject.org instead of trinitydesktop.org... and yet I keep getting the svn url wrong... |
*Xu_R is guessing | |
kb9vqf_offsite | http://svn.trinitydesktop.org |
kb9vqf_offsite | svn co http://svn.trinitydesktop.org/svn/trinity-packaging |
Xu_R | ah, http. I kept doing svn:// |
kb9vqf_offsite | Sorry :) |
Xu_R | but that was my next guess XD |
kb9vqf_offsite | I figure if http is working well why open up another port? |
kb9vqf_offsite | I can do things with http that I can't do with a straight svn:// connection |
kb9vqf_offsite | involving multiple sites/repos |
Xu_R | :) |
Xu_R | grr... |
Xu_R | access forbidden. |
kb9vqf_offsite | BTW you should use the trinity.pearsoncomputing.net URL instead of trinitydesktop.org when accessing the Wiki |
kb9vqf_offsite | Xu_R: Did you log in and change your password yet? |
kb9vqf_offsite | http://svn.trinitydesktop.org/submin/login |
Xu_R | kb9vqf_offsite: yea |
kb9vqf_offsite | Also remember you have to specify your username in the svn co command |
kb9vqf_offsite | so svn co http://svn.trinitydesktop.org/svn/trinity-packaging --username xur |
kb9vqf_offsite | so svn co http://svn.trinitydesktop.org/svn/trinity-packaging --username rxu |
kb9vqf_offsite | sorry |
kb9vqf_offsite | typoed it |
Xu_R | hmm... trying again |
Xu_R | oh wow. |
Xu_R | I did trinity-packages -___- |
kb9vqf_offsite | That won't work! |
kb9vqf_offsite | It doesn't store complete packages |
kb9vqf_offsite | hence the packaging name |
kb9vqf_offsite | Just the spec and patch files to create the packages with a build farm... |
kb9vqf_offsite | !later |
Xu_R | :P |
kb9vqf_offsite | tbottu didn't like that |
tbottu | kb9vqf_offsite: Sorry, I've no idea what 'didn't like that' might be. |
kb9vqf_offsite | Oh well |
kb9vqf_offsite | I'd like to leave a message for samelian |
Xu_R | :P |
kb9vqf_offsite | Guess I'll send it on the devel list :) |
kb9vqf_offsite | Xu_R: Did it let you in to SVN? |
kb9vqf_offsite | When you upload your packaging you should follow the general structure as shown in the ubuntu folder |
kb9vqf_offsite | so <distroname>/<distrocodename>/<trinitymodulename> |
Xu_R | kb9vqf_offsite: yea. and I can't follow that way, RPMs do it very differently. |
Xu_R | we can work with multiple versions from one file :P |
kb9vqf_offsite | Ah, OK |
*kb9vqf_offsite did not know that | |
kb9vqf_offsite | Do what makes sense then |
Xu_R | :) |
Xu_R | The way I see it, if you cannot do multiple versions with one file, do it your way... |
Xu_R | and if you can, do <distroname>/master/<trinitymodule> |
Xu_R | so that way it's easy to branch :) |
kb9vqf_offsite | OK |
kb9vqf_offsite | Sounds good to me |
*kb9vqf_offsite knows absolutely nothing about RPM packaging | |
kb9vqf_offsite | Debian FTW :) |
Xu_R | hehe |
Xu_R | oh no, you forgot the mandriva folder. adding that... |
kb9vqf_offsite | Go right ahead |
kb9vqf_offsite | I just wanted to get the desired "feel" of the repository in place |
kb9vqf_offsite | so that the existing structure could be extended |
kb9vqf_offsite | without devolving into chaos :) |
Xu_R | hehe |
Xu_R | damn... just realized... have to stay after school until 8PM for activities next Tuesday D: That means I'll have to use the raindate of Wednesday >_< |

kb9vqf | yes |
kb9vqf | what is it? |
Xu_R|School | just saying hi... |
kb9vqf | Ah, OK |
kb9vqf | Hi |
kb9vqf | :) |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: AFAIK samelian has not yet dealt with the problem if you want to take a look |
kb9vqf | You can reference the Automake.am file to know what was supposed to happen |
*cfaust has joined #trinity-desktop | |
samelian | kb9vqf: about what problem you says? |
kb9vqf | Ah |
kb9vqf | there you are :) |
kb9vqf | See the mailing list |
*kb9vqf goes to grab the link | |
kb9vqf | Looks like you already did it :-P |
kb9vqf | Thanks |
kb9vqf | :) |
samelian | welcome |
*kb9vqf did not see the original Email | |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: ^^^^^^^^^ |
kb9vqf | It's fixed |
aalecs | hello all, salut serghei |
samelian | salut aalecs |
kb9vqf | samelian: Any particular reason why libartsgslplayobject.so.0 was renamed libartsgslplayobject.so.1 ? |
samelian | i think a simple mistake |
samelian | I will check it now |
kb9vqf | OK |
samelian | we have any mechanism to check if all files are installed and named correctly? |
*kb9vqf notes that building the Debian packages can find mistakes like thi | |
kb9vqf | That is what I am doing now essentially |
kb9vqf | I may be pestering you for a few days as a result ;-) |
samelian | no problem |
kb9vqf | Let me know when that fix is in SVN and I'll fire off a rebuild |
samelian | ok |
samelian | kb9vqf: fixed |
kb9vqf | ok |
*kb9vqf goes to start the rebuild...results in 7mins | |
samelian | i tested yesterday pch |
samelian | compiling time for tqt lowered from 1:40 seconds without pch to 28 second with pch |
kb9vqf | cool |
kb9vqf | samelian: What happened to libx11globalcomm.la? |
kb9vqf | Do we not install .la files any more? |
*kb9vqf does not know | |
aalecs | what do you compile in 7min ? |
kb9vqf | arts |
aalecs | ah |
kb9vqf | samelian: IIRC .la files were for Automake only, correct? |
*kb9vqf just wants to be sure | |
samelian | if i'm not wrong, .la files are used by plugins as well |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | Then you may want to look into why libx11globalcomm.la is missing :) |
samelian | where is libx11globalcomm.la? |
samelian | arts? |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | Normally it would be installed into /opt/trinity/lib/libx11globalcomm.la |
samelian | aha, I think I skipped it, I don't remember for what reason |
kb9vqf | We may need it |
kb9vqf | Especially since people want to build the core with CMake and other packages with Automake |
samelian | seems that is used only when X11 support is activated for arts |
samelian | i'm not sure if is really useful for anything |
samelian | i do not needed it until now |
samelian | ignore it for now, I will activate it later |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | I will start a Wiki page with "stuff that will be done later" |
kb9vqf | otherwise we will forget |
samelian | ok |
kb9vqf | samelian: http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/wiki/bin/view/Developers/StuffToFix |
kb9vqf | I'll just throw anything that needs to be fixed later on in there |
kb9vqf | samelian: I assume this also is not available? /opt/trinity/lib/mcop/Arts/X11GlobalComm.mcopclass |
kb9vqf | In arts |
samelian | I think is skipped for same reason |
Z_God | I understand the porting from TDE to Qt4 is going well now? |
Z_God | I'm anxious to try it out :) |
kb9vqf | I haven't had a chance to work on it lately unfortunately |
kb9vqf | It mostly works (85% or so), but there are a few major problems that I would like fixed before a general test point release |
kb9vqf | a.k.a. pre-alpha release :) |
aalecs | i hope tde will not get the bloatiness of kde 4.x :D (in the future, i mean) |
kb9vqf | Nope |
kb9vqf | That's a design goal |
kb9vqf | Fast, small, powerful |
aalecs | cool :) |
kb9vqf | "small" being "as small as it can be without sacrificing functionality" :) |
kb9vqf | samelian: /opt/trinity/lib/mcop/artsflow.mcopclass |
*cfaust has joined #trinity-desktop | |
samelian | kb9vqf: pls make a little bigger list with problems |
kb9vqf | samelian: What I have been doing is rebuilding and waiting for the errors |
kb9vqf | I don't have any way of finding all the errors at once |
samelian | aha |
samelian | ok then, hang on |
kb9vqf | If you want to you can look in the packaging SVN at the control file |
kb9vqf | Anything in here http://svn.trinitydesktop.org/websvn/listing.php?repname=Trinity+Packaging&path=%2Fubuntu%2Fmaverick%2Fdependencies%2Farts%2Fdebian%2F&#addfffc4e416a7d9255744139693d65fe |
kb9vqf | With a .install extension |
kb9vqf | contains a list of expected files |
samelian | I was a little sloppy when I beginning cmake-ing :) |
kb9vqf | If any of those files do not exist the build will fail |
kb9vqf | It's OK :) |
samelian | kb9vqf: fixed |
kb9vqf | OK |
kb9vqf | Build starting... |
*K`zan has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | samelian: Build failure this time: http://quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net:58080/2051280/buildlog_ubuntu-maverick-i386.arts-trinity_4%3A3.5.12-0ubuntu7%2Br1224418%2Bpr32_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz |
samelian | ah, these files are generated |
*field_it1 has joined #trinity-desktop | |
samelian | kb9vqf: fixed |
kb9vqf | ok, thanks |
kb9vqf | building again.... |
samelian | kb9vqf: you build seems to long, you do not using parallel building? |
kb9vqf | samelian: It actually takes about 5 mins |
kb9vqf | BUT |
kb9vqf | that includes setting up the clean chroot envronment and tearing it down when the build is done |
kb9vqf | Also, Debian does some library stripping/searching at the end of each build |
samelian | i see |
samelian | aalecs: I still thinking in Romanian :) |
aalecs | :D |
aalecs | ok |
samelian | unde poti sa ma corectezi, te rog fa-o |
samelian | astia nu ma corecteaza si invat niciodata |
aalecs | ok, iti mai zic cand mai vad |
samelian | si nu* |
aalecs | we're two romanians here :D |
samelian | hehe, happy me :) |
samelian | de ce in contextul asta se foloseste "use" si nu "using"? |
samelian | ca am vrut sa exprim la timpul prezent |
aalecs | using e ceva care faci acum, de lunga durata, use e la modu general |
aalecs | poti folosi using daca zici asa |
aalecs | "aren't you using parallel build ?" |
aalecs | iar use |
aalecs | "don't you use parallel build?" |
aalecs | use e general, using e acum, in actiunea de lunga durata |
aalecs | gen "i`m now coding" = acuma programez. sau "i code" = eu programez. adica de obicei, dar nu neaparat acum. |
aalecs | using e ok, condeaza acordu |
aalecs | "you use" = tu folosesti (generic), "are you using" = folosesti (prezent) |
aalecs | samelian: am terminat polologhia |
aalecs | :D |
*cfaust has joined #trinity-desktop | |
samelian | aalecs: prea complicat :) |
samelian | eu il intrebam daca foloseste "acum", pentru ca asta face in momentul asta de-i dau erorile alea |
aalecs | da stiu :D |
samelian | deci ar fi trebui sa zic "aren't you using"? |
samelian | nu ma descurc nici cu "are" prea bine, mereu il folosesc gresit :) |
aalecs | da |
samelian | "is" e la singular, "are" la plural, din cate stiu |
aalecs | sau you are not using |
aalecs | da dar cand ai verbe cu ing la coada, se pune are |
samelian | aha |
aalecs | i rule, i am ruling, you rule, you are ruling, he rules, he is ruling |
samelian | aha, "are" e folosit cand vrei sa spui "acum, in momentul asta" |
aalecs | da, si atentie la persoana |
aalecs | i am using, you are using |
aalecs | gen tu folosesti (acum) |
samelian | normal, nu o sa zic "i are" :) |
aalecs | ihim :D |
aalecs | ma rog sper sa nu o iei ca pe o corectie |
aalecs | vroiam doar sa ajut |
samelian | stai calm, de cand ma rog de astia sa ma corecteze |
samelian | si nu o fac |
aalecs | :)) |
samelian | macar tu stii si romana si imi explici in limba mea |
aalecs | da, as putea zice ca stiu romana si engleza nativ |
samelian | misto :) |
samelian | eu nu am studii formale, stiu doar ce am prins, dupa ureche :) |
samelian | idiotii astia ne-au predat rusa si franceza |
samelian | macar rusa o stiu pt ca sunt nativ |
aalecs | stiu si franceza ceva |
aalecs | cu rusa ma chinui :D |
kb9vqf | samelian: /opt/trinity/lib/libartscbackend.a : needed or not? |
samelian | .a files are convenience libraries |
samelian | usually |
kb9vqf | So I can probably just remove it? |
samelian | convenience libraries are not installed |
kb9vqf | OK |
kb9vqf | Someone messed up the Debian packaging then |
*kb9vqf goes to fix it | |
samelian | wait, I will check makefile.am |
aalecs | you do not need .a |
aalecs | and .la i think the same |
samelian | .la files are used by automake, for linking |
aalecs | though i got a lot of .a in my /usr/lib64 |
samelian | .a are static lib |
samelian | sometimes are needed |
aalecs | mkay :) |
kb9vqf | Can you fix it then? |
samelian | hang on |
kb9vqf | ok |
*kb9vqf notes his computer is acting up today | |
kb9vqf | I don't mean to be rude :) |
kb9vqf | Just a bit frustrating |
kb9vqf | I think a geriatric snail might just beat my workstation today :-P |
samelian | kb9vqf: libartscbackend is actually .so, not .a |
samelian | is a module |
kb9vqf | Debian is trying to install these variants: |
kb9vqf | debian/tmp/opt/trinity/lib/libartsc.a |
kb9vqf | debian/tmp/opt/trinity/lib/libartsc.la |
kb9vqf | debian/tmp/opt/trinity/lib/libartsc.so |
kb9vqf | So the .a is just a mess up? |
samelian | libartscbackend_la_LDFLAGS = -no-undefined -module $(KDE_RPATH) $(all_libraries) |
samelian | note "-module" flag |
kb9vqf | Right |
kb9vqf | Well, I guess I'll remove the .a variant |
samelian | ok |
kb9vqf | If anything fails later on I'll have to revisit this |
samelian | sure |
samelian | aalecs: "note" sau "notice"? |
samelian | voiam sa zic "observa", "ia notă" |
samelian | kb9vqf: sorry for Romanian, I am trying to learn english :) |
kb9vqf | I don't mind at all |
samelian | hehe |
aalecs | note: nota, notice: observa (note: adica nota, anexa etc) notice: fii atent (cam asa) |
aalecs | e bine in ambele |
samelian | aha |
samelian | vezi, am zis bine "i am trying" :) |
aalecs | note, notice sunt substantive, notice poate fi si verb |
aalecs | :D |
aalecs | da :D |
samelian | incep sa aplic cunostintele :) |
aalecs | e bun |
aalecs | :D |
Z_God | kb9vqf: impressive, great to hear it's so far already |
kb9vqf | Z_God: Bear in mind that that is for the core system only (arts, kdelibs, kdebase), but once the interface is nearing 100% functionality there porting the remaining Trinity modules will be relatively simple and fast |
Z_God | I wonder how well KDE4 apps will run in TDE-Qt4, it seems there's a big opportunity for integration between the different kdelibs |
kb9vqf | They look big and clunky ;-) |
kb9vqf | Running KDE4/Qt4 apps under Trinity really accentuates the design differences |
kb9vqf | between the two desktops that is |
Z_God | it will be interesting :) |
Z_God | what do you think of the performance of Qt4? |
kb9vqf | It seems OK |
kb9vqf | I have been using it over VNC |
kb9vqf | and I have not noticed any reall difference from Qt3 over VNC |

Z_God | I understood it was supposed to be better than Qt 3 ;) |
kb9vqf | Certain graphics operations are a lot slower though in Qt4 |
kb9vqf | Due to the double buffering and all the abstraction cruft to allow it to run on Windows/Mac |
Z_God | hmm, I see |
Z_God | is that the reason to keep the Qt3 version? |
kb9vqf | Fortunately Qt 4.7 introduced some native Xorg drawing functions |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | That and to allow Trinity development to continue while the Qt4 version is unstable |
Z_God | I see :) |
Z_God | so what's the next main goal now then? |
kb9vqf | CMake |
kb9vqf | Getting everything built |
kb9vqf | HAL-->udev |
kb9vqf | then the Qt4 version |
kb9vqf | Probably in that order too |
Z_God | ok |
kb9vqf | Getting everthing built also includes bug fixes |
kb9vqf | Lots and lots of bug fixes :) |
kb9vqf | We have a bug day coming up this weekend |
Z_God | yeah, I still have a crash in ktorrent ;) |
kb9vqf | Well, join us and pester to get it fixed :) |
Z_God | found a workaround though :) |
Z_God | I put the trace in the bug |
Z_God | but mostly it seems everything is quite solid though |
Z_God | I use trinity on lucid & debian on many boxes and it seems very stable |
aalecs | Z_God: what glibc do you have on your boxes ? |
Z_God | aalecs: nothing special really, why do you ask? |
kb9vqf | Z_God: He might be curious because a newer glibc version has destabilized a lot of software |
kb9vqf | Not just in Trinity though AFAIK |
kb9vqf | Also AFAIK they are working on a fix upstream |
aalecs | exactly |
Z_God | I don't run anything really modern :) |
aalecs | i posted the kdesktop crash |
Z_God | ubuntu lucid on all my work boxes |
aalecs | aha, well.. hope that the glibc fix will come |
Z_God | what version are you using then? |
aalecs | 2.11.3 |
Z_God | it's 2.10 here indeed |
aalecs | i`ll try building 3.5.13 on newest gcc/glibc in a few days |
aalecs | me goes to sleep |
aalecs | gnite guys |
aalecs | pa-pa samelian , noapte buna |

kb9vqf | samelian: /opt/trinity/include/artsc/artsc.h': No such file or directory |
kb9vqf | I don't see it being installed anywhere |
kb9vqf | This is still in arts |
samelian | hang on |
kb9vqf | I may not be around much longer |
kb9vqf | One of my disks is completely failing |
kb9vqf | On this workstation that is |
kb9vqf | That's why it is running so slow |
kb9vqf | *!@# seagate |
kb9vqf | I will likely have to power down and replace the disk |
kb9vqf | If I disappear from the channel I probably won't be back until tomorrow at the earliest |
samelian | kb9vqf: done, was commented, I do not remember why |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | let me fire a build off |
kb9vqf | BTW the above mentioned disk failure is not on the Trinity servers, just on my personal workstation :) |
kb9vqf | So no service interruptions are expected |
kb9vqf | I can rebuild disks online on the main servers |
kb9vqf | *replace/rebuild |

samelian | kb9vqf: how can I find all files that are not under svn control? |
arw__ | svn status should tell you something like that? |
arw__ | .oO( although it has been a while since I last used svn ) |
samelian | yes, seems stats show me "orphan" files |
samelian | thx |
kb9vqf | samelian: arts/artsc.h should be installed into artsc/artsc.h |
kb9vqf | Same with arts/artsc_export.h, shouldbe installed into artsc/artsc_export.h |
samelian | is not? |
kb9vqf | Nope |
kb9vqf | Into arts/ |
kb9vqf | Currently it installs into arts/ |
samelian | hang on |
kb9vqf | It needs to install into artsc/ |
*kb9vqf is getting really fed up with this workstation........ | |
samelian | kb9vqf: must be under include/arts/artsc/ or include/artsc/artsc.h |
samelian | ? |
kb9vqf | include/artsc/artsc.h |
kb9vqf | with the "c" |
kb9vqf | same with include/artsc/artsc_export.h |
samelian | right |
kb9vqf | it would have been easy to miss for sure |
kb9vqf | I didn't catch it until I looked really hard :) |
samelian | kb9vqf: but where is gsl/gslcommon.h, for example? |
samelian | under include/ or include/arts/ ? |
kb9vqf | include/arts/gsl/gslcommon.h |
samelian | hmm, big problem |
kb9vqf | ? |
kb9vqf | We need to keep the original file structure |
kb9vqf | OR completely remove Automake |
kb9vqf | I vote to keep the original structure :) |
samelian | ${INCLUDE_INSTALL_DIR} is include/arts |
kb9vqf | Well, I guess override it for those two files |
samelian | a ugly workaround can be ${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}/include/artsc |
kb9vqf | Works for me |
samelian | ok, I will put a FIXME notice |
samelian | hang on |
kb9vqf | Sure |
samelian | kb9vqf: done |
kb9vqf | Thanks |
*kb9vqf starts yet another rebuild... | |
Xu_R | eeeeek thunderstorm warnings, flood warnings, and tornado watches... fun. |
arw__ | ah, spring :) |
kb9vqf | Ah, don't you enjoy them though? :) |
kb9vqf | Seems you guys on the east coast have been getting more than your fair share of storms this spring |
Xu_R | lol |
Xu_R | not now... it made this week more depressing than it actually is with all the cloudy weather :P |
Xu_R | (and also caused my math teacher to take off 8 points on a test, dropping my grade 14% total) |
Xu_R | (when she's in a bad mood, she takes off more for little things) |
*samelian finished korganizer but have no ideea how to use it :) | |
kb9vqf | samelian: It's a very nice piece of software IMHO |
kb9vqf | I use it a lot |
kb9vqf | Also, arts seems to build (currently failing at a Debian-specific library detection step) |
kb9vqf | I'll let you know if there are any other CMake-related problems |
*kb9vqf needs to shut this workstation down, see you all tomorrow | |
samelian | Xu_R: I have to publish somewhere the status of kdepim porting |
samelian | you want to do it for me? |
Xu_R | samelian: sure, hold on... |
samelian | there is the list: |
samelian | http://paste.lug.ro/131048 |
samelian | D - done |
Xu_R | ok |
Xu_R | samelian: I moved cmake to it's own etherpad because it was getting too large |

MutantTurkey | I'm going ot get off |
MutantTurkey | will be on tomorrow |
Piki | MutantTurkey, i'll be sporting a trinity desktop :-P and i'm hoping to get a table next to tde table |
MutantTurkey | ok! |

Xu_R|School | hey david :D looks like your nickserv is working :P |
Xu_R|School | drankin: yea, don't we just love Xorg bugs? >_< |
Xu_R|School | seems like that's upstream |
drankin | Yeh -- especially when they happen to Me :) |
Xu_R|School | might want to file to upstream bz with a link to the bnc bug |
drankin | I think that bug has been around for a long time in radeonhd. I was doing work with them a couple of years ago when the driver broke. It was broken for months for the RS690M chipset -- I don't think it ever got fixed right :) |
drankin | I'm still on the radeonhd list, so I'll post links to the suse bug and see if they want a new one open there. |
drankin | Right now, I'm rebuilding trinity with the current changes. (I got to go the the bank now, but I'll let you know when I get back:) |

MutantTurkey | drankin: david? |
samelian | hello |
MutantTurkey | I can not figure this out, detecting without a pc file. is there an example i could use? |
samelian | in kdebase's ConfigureChecks.cmake |
samelian | check for pam test |
samelian | should be simple enough |
MutantTurkey | ok |
MutantTurkey | thank you. |
MutantTurkey | I was just confused |
samelian | if you need some hints, i'm here |
MutantTurkey | ok thanks |

MutantTurkey | samelian: can't detect sane :[ here is my configurechecks. http://ix.io/1xj |
samelian | MutantTurkey: you code are not indented well |
samelian | I do not understand your code |
MutantTurkey | D: |
MutantTurkey | what don't you understand |
samelian | the logic sequence :) |
MutantTurkey | ah |
samelian | wrong indent confuse me |
samelian | pls fix it |
MutantTurkey | sorry |
MutantTurkey | thought it was pretty fine |
MutantTurkey | most people complain of my non standard coding though D: |
MutantTurkey | http://ix.io/1xk |
MutantTurkey | maybe better? |
samelian | still wrong |
samelian | why "if" is under "pkg_search_module" ? |
MutantTurkey | because it follows logically |
samelian | is not logically at all :) |
MutantTurkey | they are related, so i have them together |
MutantTurkey | the if statement is based on the previous variable |
samelian | my mind can't follow this kind of logic :) |
samelian | is very confunsing |
MutantTurkey | D: |
samelian | only blocks should be indented |
MutantTurkey | but they are logically part of the same "block" |
samelian | if/endif, foreach/enforeach, etc |
MutantTurkey | i understand that |
MutantTurkey | your way (i'll just change it back after you read it, then switch it when i submit it |
MutantTurkey | http://ix.io/1xl |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: david is at the bank, apparently |
samelian | MutantTurkey: seems fine, what is problem? |
MutantTurkey | samelian: it doesn't detect sane. |
MutantTurkey | hold up |
MutantTurkey | let me get the error |
MutantTurkey | http://ix.io/1xn |
samelian | show me CMakeError.log |
MutantTurkey | doesn't exist |
samelian | should be, under CMakeFiles |
MutantTurkey | i think we need to make a FindSane.cmake modules |
samelian | libsane is not important enough to make a specialized module for it |
MutantTurkey | why not haha? |
MutantTurkey | i see that many people have different modules |
MutantTurkey | kde4 (looked at their svn) has one for poppler and such |
MutantTurkey | no cmake log |
MutantTurkey | wier |
MutantTurkey | wierd' |
MutantTurkey | weird' |
MutantTurkey | dumb keys |
samelian | you find it in build tree, right? |
MutantTurkey | no i didn't find it |
samelian | please give me entire cmake output |
MutantTurkey | that is |
MutantTurkey | http://ix.io/1xn |
samelian | that's all? |
MutantTurkey | yes |
samelian | are you sure? |
samelian | remove build tree and run cmake again |
*cfaust has joined #trinity-desktop | |
*cfaust has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | yes. |
MutantTurkey | the problem is that there is no saneConfig.cmake or sane cmake module |
MutantTurkey | so that method won't work (afaik) |
samelian | you don't need saneconfig |
samelian | you create your own |
MutantTurkey | so i am confused |
MutantTurkey | you want me to create a sane.cmake module? |
samelian | nope |
samelian | you need just to check for presence of sane, that's all |
*cfaust has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | well it doesn't find it |
MutantTurkey | that is the problem :p |
MutantTurkey | how do i check then? |
samelian | debug it :) |
samelian | i told you, remove build tree and run cmake again |
MutantTurkey | i did |
MutantTurkey | same problem D: |
samelian | ofc, but i want to see output |
MutantTurkey | cmake doesn't get anywhere. |
MutantTurkey | same output |
samelian | is not possible |
samelian | cmake output should be longer |
MutantTurkey | why? |
samelian | because I cand see in your ouput C++ checks, for example |
samelian | can't see |
MutantTurkey | :[ |
samelian | so? |
MutantTurkey | hold on |
MutantTurkey | sorry |
MutantTurkey | I don't like to remove this because my PATH isn't set correctly |
samelian | ah, for this reason your cmake output is not completely |
MutantTurkey | yes. |
samelian | you must script it somehow |
MutantTurkey | yeah i will add it to my bashrc |
samelian | you cannot debug in this way |
samelian | MutantTurkey: in any case, you don't need sane for kfileplugins |
MutantTurkey | no for klibscan |
MutantTurkey | but yes i know, i need TIFF for kfileplugins |
samelian | hehe |
samelian | you should be more organized |
MutantTurkey | D: |
MutantTurkey | nah |
MutantTurkey | i mean yes |
samelian | also, for sane you should use sane-config, not manual detecting |
MutantTurkey | sane-config? |
MutantTurkey | D: DUH. i am dumb |
samelian | when you you investigate which detection method you should use, every time check configure.in.in, in such directory |
aalecs | serghei, ai de corectat ? :D |
MutantTurkey | why don't they just use a damned pkg-config file instead of having their own system |
samelian | nu, sunt nervos si asa :) |
samelian | ca nu pricepe asta |
MutantTurkey | I hate projects that can't follow simple standards |
aalecs | hhh |
aalecs | e el sau ea ? |
samelian | un el |
samelian | e un puşti |
aalecs | ash |
samelian | MutantTurkey: I think sane was invented before freedesktop standards :) |
MutantTurkey | samelian: yes, as was gnome and kde |
MutantTurkey | everyone conformed to it |
MutantTurkey | sane has continued to be developed, there fore it should use newer standards |
samelian | not exactly, kde don't use pkg-config |
MutantTurkey | much like we are converting to udev and not hal. |
MutantTurkey | samelian: same idea though, they follow many freedesktop standards |
samelian | anyway, using sane-config is far too complicated |

samelian | MutantTurkey: http://paste.lug.ro/131049 |
samelian | there I detected for gpgme |
samelian | as I see, is very complicate process |
MutantTurkey | D: yes |
MutantTurkey | agreed |
MutantTurkey | samelian: you are very right. i am not orginized. |
MutantTurkey | forgot i ran into another problem with dscparse-stati |
MutantTurkey | oh wait. nevermind D: |
samelian | your problem is that you started many projects at same time |
MutantTurkey | you are right. |
MutantTurkey | haha it is true |
MutantTurkey | i should do it more piecemeal, the problem is that i had to skip around because some libraries were used from other parts of the kdegrahpics and such |
MutantTurkey | hmm, okay samelian I have it detecting TIFF ok. now it can't find tiff.h with the check_include_file( "tiff.h" HAVE_TIFF_H ). tiff is in my system in /include/tiff.h |
MutantTurkey | sorry for being so sloppy |
samelian | show me output of cmake |
MutantTurkey | just "tiff.h is required but not found on your system", i dug deeper and made a conditional IF(NOT HAVE_TIFF_H) tde_message_fatal "tiff.h etc etc etc" |
MutantTurkey | so we know that the library is detecting ok, just not the tiff.h |
MutantTurkey | oh wait |
MutantTurkey | hmmm |
samelian | but cmake what says about tiff.h? |
MutantTurkey | i think i fixed it :) |
MutantTurkey | it says found :D |
MutantTurkey | now how do i make it add tiff to my includes? |
MutantTurkey | and libraries? |
MutantTurkey | set( ) something right? |
samelian | actually, no |
MutantTurkey | hmmm ok |
samelian | if a header is found, this means that is in /usr/include |
MutantTurkey | we do need to set flags though right |
MutantTurkey | oh right |
MutantTurkey | which is already in our ${INCLUDE_DIRS} ? |
samelian | yes |
samelian | the same for lib |
MutantTurkey | that is odd, since it is not finding it when building |
MutantTurkey | oh i mean linking |
MutantTurkey | undefined reference... etc etc |
samelian | show me linking error |
MutantTurkey | ok |
MutantTurkey | http://ix.io/1xp |
samelian | ah |
samelian | set( LIBTIFF tiff CACHE INTERNAL "" FORCE ) |
samelian | actually, more consistent |
samelian | set( TIFF_LIBRARY tiff CACHE INTERNAL "" FORCE ) |
MutantTurkey | to force it |
MutantTurkey | ok |
MutantTurkey | then add to my linking tiff |
MutantTurkey | excellent |
MutantTurkey | okay i think that is that. KFILEPLUGINS is done |
samelian | ok |
MutantTurkey | drankin: did you see my note about licensing and the PKGBUILDs? |

MutantTurkey | i am making sure that all builds right now, then i will keep moving |
MutantTurkey | I have a concert to goto in about 40 minutes, but after i will get more done |
MutantTurkey | also this coming week i am on spring break, so i have all free time |
samelian | however, before commit you must respect all formatiing rules and indenting |
MutantTurkey | yeah |
MutantTurkey | I am also going to have to double check all desktop file and such |
MutantTurkey | this is just "does it build?" |
MutantTurkey | then i will go back, look through each file, etc. |
samelian | ok |
MutantTurkey | do you think we should start some sort of "rules for CMakeList" or "cmake style" or something? |
samelian | for sure |
MutantTurkey | ok we can do that eventually |
MutantTurkey | that way everyone is on same page |
samelian | our code must be consisten and clean |
MutantTurkey | samelian: i need to conditionally build libkscan, like IF( BUILD_KOOKA=ON then BUILD_LIBKSCAN=ON ) or somthing |
MutantTurkey | that idea, because kooka usues libkscan |
MutantTurkey | ok! i just build all of those successfully from a clean build |
MutantTurkey | :) |
MutantTurkey | I'm gonna shower, get ready, i'll be back on later tonight |

kb9vqf_offsite | Poke me with questions |
MutantTurkey | today is bug day?! crap |
MutantTurkey | ok time to tell everyone i am busy :p |
samelian | kb9vqf_offsite: seems that uic have a bug, do not generate const functions |
kb9vqf_offsite | example? |
samelian | hang on |
samelian | here: amarok/src/organizecollectiondialog.ui |
kb9vqf_offsite | of course uic is part of qt3....ugghhh... |
samelian | <functions> |
samelian | <function returnType="QString">buildDestination( const QString &amp; format, const MetaBundle &amp; mb ) const</function> |
samelian | the result: |
samelian | /usr/qt/3/bin/uic -impl /var/tmp/amarok.build/amarok/src/organizecollectiondialog.h ./amarok/src/organizecollectiondialog.ui |
samelian | QString OrganizeCollectionDialog::buildDestination(const QString&,const MetaBundle&) |
samelian | { |
samelian | qWarning( "OrganizeCollectionDialog::buildDestination(const QString&,const MetaBundle&): Not implemented yet" ); |
samelian | return QString(); |
samelian | } |
samelian | no const |
kb9vqf_offsite | OTOH I don't know what would cause that |
kb9vqf_offsite | Looks like an old Qt3 bug |
samelian | a hack can be removing "const" |
kb9vqf_offsite | Is there any way to use a non-const function? |
kb9vqf_offsite | Yes |
kb9vqf_offsite | I really, really don't want to get into patching Qt3 more than is needed |
kb9vqf_offsite | I have worked extensively with the Qt3 source and it is NOT FUN |
samelian | I don't know why until now was ok |
kb9vqf_offsite | gcc became more strict? |
samelian | yes, this my guess either |
kb9vqf_offsite | Just to throw this out there, the offending code file is in qt3source/tools/uic |
kb9vqf_offsite | A quick glance through that folder should let you know why I really don't want to change it :) |
samelian | hehe |
kb9vqf_offsite | thanks for the doc info as well |
kb9vqf_offsite | Now that I know what to do I can replicate the fix to the other doc directories |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf_offsite: in kdegraphics/kmrml/kmrml/mrml.cpp -> there is a ifdef for <unistd.h> but i don't see the point of it, because 1)everyone has that 2) if its not defined it fails anyway |
MutantTurkey | because without that HAVE_UNISTD_H it fails because it can't find getpid |
kb9vqf_offsite | Remove the ifdef then |
kb9vqf_offsite | It might have been to support an ancient system |
MutantTurkey | ok |
MutantTurkey | and for stdlib.h also |
MutantTurkey | both completely normal |
kb9vqf_offsite | We obviously can't support that ancient system if a) we don't know what it is and b) none of us have access to one |
MutantTurkey | and c) we want to be modern |
kb9vqf_offsite | Of course :) |
MutantTurkey | ok that solves that problem |
samelian | MutantTurkey: do not assume that a header exists |
samelian | Linux is not the only Unix-like operating system |
MutantTurkey | we assume all the other headers exist |
samelian | wrong |
MutantTurkey | UNISTD |
MutantTurkey | unix standard :p |
samelian | you checked for it on AIX either? :) |
MutantTurkey | okay, then we need to patch it to have support if there isn't unistd.h |
MutantTurkey | okay everyone who uses Trinity on AIX right now, raise your hands! |
MutantTurkey | okay nobody. |
MutantTurkey | samelian: there is no point of a check if it fails without the check |
MutantTurkey | anyway gotta go get food. bbs |
kb9vqf_offsite | An alternat solution would be to put in an #ifndef that checks for unix/linux and throws a FIXME compile error mentioning that support for non-unix system is not available |
samelian | actually it is, for example on linux close() is located in "unistd.h" |
samelian | on windows somewhere else, but you get the point |
Xu_R | ASFIDSAFBH forgot it was bug day. xD |
samelian | kb9vqf_offsite: the "no const" hack seems working |
samelian | now I will rebuild amarok, to check if it crashes in runtime |
Xu_R | kb9vqf_offsite: I might have to give up openSUSE and leave it to Ilya; Having Fedora and Mandriva is trouble enough - with openSUSE, I'm having major problems when combining the three. >_< |
kb9vqf_offsite | That's what I figured might happen |
*kb9vqf_offsite knows from experience | |
kb9vqf_offsite | Ubuntu + Debian is hard enough |
Xu_R | kb9vqf_offsite: Well, I don't have THAT great experience :P |
Xu_R | kb9vqf_offsite: new mail: [PATCH] from Fedora: Fix autoconf compilation regression >= 2.64 |
Xu_R | kb9vqf_offsite: Do you think that could solve your autoconf problem? *shrug* |
Xu_R | brb, restarting trillian |
*Xu_R has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Xu_R | back |
kb9vqf_offsite | I'm not sure |
kb9vqf_offsite | Doesn't look like it |
kb9vqf_offsite | So Fedora got it to build at all with autoconf >=2.64? |
kb9vqf_offsite | Weird |
Xu_R | Yes. and an automake hack, lemme pull that up |
Xu_R | # hack/fix for newer automake |
Xu_R | sed -iautomake -e 's|automake\*1.10\*|automake\*1.1[0-5]\*|' admin/cvs.sh |
Xu_R | make -f admin/Makefile.common cvs |
kb9vqf_offsite | That one I already had in SVN |
kb9vqf_offsite | it was the autoconf problem that prevented further work |
kb9vqf_offsite | Any chance Fedora patched autoconf? |
Xu_R | kb9vqf_offsite: according to my records, no. |
kb9vqf_offsite | Huh |
kb9vqf_offsite | Well, you saw the Email I sent to the mailing list a while back with the autoconf 2.64 problem explained, correct? |
Xu_R | yes |
kb9vqf_offsite | According to that there is no way it would (ever) work :-/ |
kb9vqf_offsite | Which has been my experience as well |
Xu_R | :( |
Xu_R | worth a shot, though...? |
kb9vqf_offsite | Well, that is only for arts |
Xu_R | kb9vqf_offsite: nope. they applied it to everything |
Xu_R | I see that patch in all their kde3 base pkgs like arts, kdelibs3, kdebase3 |
kb9vqf_offsite | Xu_R: Do you want to run a compile test for me? :) |
kb9vqf_offsite | Pull the latest arts sources from SVN |
kb9vqf_offsite | patch it with the arts patch from Fedora |
kb9vqf_offsite | and try to build it with the latest autoconf/automake |
Xu_R | kb9vqf_offsite: sure. |
kb9vqf_offsite | I bet it will fail |
kb9vqf_offsite | But I would like to be proven wrong |
Xu_R | kb9vqf_offsite: knowing how experienced you're with this, it probably will :P |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf_offsite: not a bug, but are we on hold for the new website? |
kb9vqf_offsite | Nope |
kb9vqf_offsite | Since TokRa did not get something to me by Friday I will be deploying your version |
MutantTurkey | ok. |
kb9vqf_offsite | I'm having another set of eyes look at the grammar and spelling ATM |
MutantTurkey | ok |
MutantTurkey | cool |
Xu_R | kb9vqf_offsite: doing now... |
kb9vqf_offsite | OK |
*field_it has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf_offsite | Just a reminder....today is Bug Day! Grab a bug report from http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net and try to fix it! |
kb9vqf_offsite | Poke me if you have questiosn |
kb9vqf_offsite | *questions |
samelian | kb9vqf_offsite: #396 should be closed |
kb9vqf_offsite | Let me look |
kb9vqf_offsite | samelian: You fixed it? |
samelian | kdevelop now is building with cmake |
kb9vqf_offsite | So when I use kdevelop to build a project, it uses CMake to build it instead of Automake? |
kb9vqf_offsite | I just want to make sure |
kb9vqf_offsite | bug #396 is not referring to the way that kdevelop itself is built |
tbottu | Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=396 enh, P5, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, KDevelop builds fail |
samelian | hang on, I think I wrong understood |
samelian | yes |
samelian | I have no experience with automake |
*kb9vqf_offsite would like to see kdevelop dump automake as well | |
kb9vqf_offsite | It's not high on my priority list right now |
kb9vqf_offsite | #396 that is |
kb9vqf_offsite | samelian: http://quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net:58080/2052072/buildlog_ubuntu-maverick-i386.kdebase-trinity_4%3A3.5.12-0ubuntu7%2Br1224234%2Bpr65_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz |
kb9vqf_offsite | Hunts? |
kb9vqf_offsite | *Hints |
samelian | kb9vqf_offsite: I think you forgot to install kdelibs.cmake |
kb9vqf_offsite | I probably did |
kb9vqf_offsite | Oops |
*kb9vqf_offsite needs to remember that all packages now have a .pc file | |
kb9vqf_offsite | And apparently a .cmake file as well |
samelian | ye |
samelian | yes |
samelian | actually .pc is only for tqt and arts |
samelian | for the rest I use cmake import files, like kdelibs.cmake |
kb9vqf_offsite | OK |
kb9vqf_offsite | samelian: So this .cmake file, should it be installed in the -dev package? |
samelian | yes |
kb9vqf_offsite | OK |
*Peiki has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Peiki | hi |
Peiki | MutantTurkey: Ark has a table at fosscon, still waiting to see if we'll have a table next to tde |
Peiki | i think both Ark and TDE need to be there, both are very small and could use quite a bit of help |
Xu_R | Peiki: you should probably change your nick... |
Peiki | why? |
Xu_R | Peiki: dunno, thought you mispelled it, or was it intentional? :| |
Xu_R | kb9vqf_offsite: blah. I'm having fun (not) trying to start the build - apparently my server has a backed-up queue |
Peiki | intentional, only have a few minutes, just wanted to get on real quick |
*kb9vqf_offsite knows what that's like from his Ubuntu PPA days | |
Xu_R | Peiki: ah, i see. |
Peiki | my battery is low, and going to return to work in a few minutes |
kb9vqf_offsite | Aww, you wont be helping us fix bugs then? ;-) |
Xu_R | kb9vqf_offsite: bleh... actually, I think building on build.opensuse.org was better... unless they made a essential change for openSUSE Factory which was hell lol |
Xu_R | Peiki: D: it's bug day |
kb9vqf_offsite | Xu_R: Then build there |
Xu_R | kb9vqf_offsite: reason i'm not is cause they have problems with dependencies >_< |
kb9vqf_offsite | Ah |
*kb9vqf_offsite wishes QuickBuild did RPMs | |
kb9vqf_offsite | It allocates an 8-core Opteron for each build, so kdelibs builds in about 10 minutes :)) |
Xu_R | kb9vqf_offsite: You should try running your own instance of the opensuse build service :P (although I know you won't, but worth a shot with persuasion xD) |
kb9vqf_offsite | Heh |
kb9vqf_offsite | Sorry |
Xu_R | hehehehe |
kb9vqf_offsite | Not unless someone buys my another control server |
kb9vqf_offsite | $$$$$ |
Xu_R | too many dollar signs! D: |
kb9vqf_offsite | QuickBuild bogs the current one down enough as it is |
Xu_R | ah. i see. |
kb9vqf_offsite | We're not talking about a cheap server here unfortunately ;-) |
Xu_R | -_- |
Peiki | kb9vqf_offsite: i may setup my own sort of quickbuild system. it won't have 8 cores and it will only be one system, i've barely any money and need to save for going to fosscon, but if someone can do a php interface, i can setup a no-ip or dyndns and some chroots for rpms |
kb9vqf_offsite | That's up to you |
kb9vqf_offsite | I would offer the build resources here but the control node just can't handle another build system :-/ |
kb9vqf_offsite | FYI this type of build system usually eats a LOT of disk space |
Peiki | yes |
Xu_R | Peiki: think about using mock to do something like this. :) |
Peiki | i'd only do two or three chroots, and i'd have at least 1-2tb |
Peiki | Xu_R: mock? |
kb9vqf_offsite | If you gues want to sync your packages to the mirror system just let me know |
kb9vqf_offsite | *guys |
*edakiri has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf_offsite | The only thing I ask is that the packaging be stored in the SVN tree |
Peiki | i thought svn was for the scripts (specs and such) and patches? |
Xu_R | Peiki: yes, mock. It takes the latest packages from the mirror and sets up a clean buildroot |
Xu_R | and builds your packages in them |
Xu_R | kb9vqf_offsite: as usual, you are right. the patch doesn't work. (couldn't try it on arts, so tried it on tqtinterface 3.5.12 tarball) |
kb9vqf_offsite | Peiki: Right |
Peiki | i want to use the latest packages from Ark's mirror for dependency testing. i can take care of TDE packages. i'd also want to clean out the buildroot for getting my buildrequires and requires, and i can always setup a local mirror for each buildroot for grabbing deps for TDE that were already built |
kb9vqf_offsite | That's referred to as the packaging files |
kb9vqf_offsite | Xu_R: I figured as much |
Xu_R | Peiki: then mock seems perfect and lightweight for you. |
Xu_R | kb9vqf_offsite: I know. I'm going to start pushing initial stuff to svn now. |
Peiki | kb9vqf_offsite: i was thinking of source files as well |
Peiki | ach, sudden lag |
kb9vqf_offsite | Peiki: Source files stay in SVN |
kb9vqf_offsite | The main project SVN tree that is |
kb9vqf_offsite | We don't need duplicated source trees |

Baho | Hello |
techie26_ | hi |
samelian | kb9vqf-offsite: I am trying to fix bug #453 |
tbottu | Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=453 nor, P5, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, No context menu when right clicking a folder in the Konqueror folder tree sidebar |
samelian | seems very obfuscated |
samelian | you have any clue why is this regression? |
kb9vqf-offsite | samelian: That is an odd bug for sure |
kb9vqf-offsite | Are you able to reproduce it? |
samelian | yes |
kb9vqf-offsite | Look for a missing .desktop file |
samelian | you? |
kb9vqf-offsite | hang on |
samelian | this bug is present on 2.5.12? |
samelian | 3.15.12 |
samelian | bleah |
*kb9vqf-offsite does not have access to his 3.5.12 workstation due to the disk failure | |
kb9vqf-offsite | logging on to a remote ssytem now |
kb9vqf-offsite | I can confirm the regression |
samelian | ok, is not because cmake |
samelian | is really hard to track |
kb9vqf-offsite | samelian: Go into the kdebase/konqueror or kdebase/libkonqueror directories and look for any signals/slots that may not be connected |
kb9vqf-offsite | in relation to the treeview |
kb9vqf-offsite | Also check the mouse events |
samelian | I think is somewhere in kdebase/konqueror/sidebar |
kb9vqf-offsite | Could be |
samelian | but there is no warning about unknown signal/slot |
kb9vqf-offsite | Hmmm |
samelian | void KonqSidebarDirTreeItem::rightButtonPressed() is triggered |
kb9vqf-offsite | And what does that do? |
samelian | emit tree()->popupMenu( TQCursor::pos(), lstItems ); |
kb9vqf-offsite | Can you find wha is connecting to popupMenu()? |
kb9vqf-offsite | *what |
samelian | nope |
*kb9vqf-offsite still suspects a signal/slot problem | |
kb9vqf-offsite | what class type does tree() return |
samelian | i see this |
samelian | connect(tree,TQT_SIGNAL(popupMenu( const TQPoint &, const KFileItemList & )), |
samelian | this,TQT_SIGNAL(popupMenu( const TQPoint &, const KFileItemList & ))); |
samelian | in KonqSidebar_Tree::KonqSidebar_Tree |
samelian | tree=new KonqSidebarTree(this,widget,virt,desktopName_); |
kb9vqf-offsite | Why is a signal connected to a signal? |
kb9vqf-offsite | That won't work |
kb9vqf-offsite | What file is that in? |
samelian | konqsidebar_tree.cpp |
samelian | under kdebase/konqueror/sidebar/trees/ |
samelian | hmm, I didn't noticed that signal is connected to signal :) |
samelian | maybe it trigger another signal? |
kb9vqf-offsite | Let me look |
kb9vqf-offsite | Hang on a sec |
samelian | I will check the original 3.5.10 kdebase |
kb9vqf-offsite | samelian: Also http://quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net:58080/2052196/buildlog_ubuntu-maverick-amd64.kdebase-trinity_4%3A3.5.12-0ubuntu7%2Br1224628%2Bpr72_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz |
samelian | in kdebase 3.5.10 is no konqsidebar_tree.cpp file |
kb9vqf-offsite | When you get a chance please look at it |
samelian | hang on |
kb9vqf-offsite | Seems .docbook files are not being installed |
samelian | cp: cannot stat `./debian/tmp/opt/trinity/share/doc/kde/HTML/en/kappfinder/man-kappfinder.1.docbook': No such file or directory |
samelian | dh_install: cp -a ./debian/tmp/opt/trinity/share/doc/kde/HTML/en/kappfinder/man-kappfinder.1.docbook debian/kappfinder- |
samelian | this is manpage |
samelian | there is not support for manpages yet |
samelian | I repeat my question, we really need manpages for trinity? |
kb9vqf-offsite | Oh |
kb9vqf-offsite | Hmmm |
*kb9vqf-offsite is not sure | |
samelian | I think should be regular documentation page |
kb9vqf-offsite | Probably |
kb9vqf-offsite | Who runs Trinity apps from the comand line anyway? |
kb9vqf-offsite | Probably no one |
samelian | exactly |
kb9vqf-offsite | And you are right |
kb9vqf-offsite | The original code connects a signal to a signal |
samelian | you remember why you splitted konqsidebar.cpp? |
samelian | ah, i'm wrong |
samelian | nevermind |
samelian | I should run diff between 3.5.10 and current |
samelian | to check what changes |
kb9vqf-offsite | Sure |
kb9vqf-offsite | I wonder if a bisect/regression analysis would help here |
kb9vqf-offsite | Seeing as CMake builds very rapidly |
kb9vqf-offsite | *kdebase with CMake |
samelian | yes, is much faster, because we haven't libtool wrapper anymore, I guess |
kb9vqf-offsite | The bug is NOT present in 3.5.11 |
kb9vqf-offsite | Which may help to narrow it down further |
samelian | you can run a diff between 3.5.11 and 3.5.12? |
kb9vqf-offsite | Not easily |
kb9vqf-offsite | Remember I don't have my workstation available |
samelian | i see |
kb9vqf-offsite | I'm on an old version of Linux ATM without most of my tools |
kb9vqf-offsite | :( |
samelian | ok, I will download tarball |
kb9vqf-offsite | Replacement disk comes monday :) |
samelian | about docs, I think we need a person to maintain it |
kb9vqf-offsite | Yes |
kb9vqf-offsite | Bring it up in the meeting on Wednesday |
*K`zan has joined #trinity-desktop | |
samelian | kb9vqf-offsite: you can give me sources of 3.5.11? |
samelian | the monolithic tarball are huge |
samelian | i must to wait 50 minutes |
kb9vqf-offsite | samelian: I don't think you need to do that |
samelian | i need only kdebase |
kb9vqf-offsite | Go to the websvn and run diffs on each file |
samelian | ah, you right |
kb9vqf-offsite | For example, I noticed that the problem only seems to affect directory items |
kb9vqf-offsite | So kdebase/konqueror/sidebar/trees/dirtree_module/ MAY be to blame |
samelian | you right, other modules seems ok |
*MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop | |
*kb9vqf-offsite needs to run, be back later on tonight | |
MutantTurkey | sorry i havent been on much |
MutantTurkey | today helping out |
MutantTurkey | Piki: yeah i gotta email JD |
kb9vqf-offsite | samelian: Thoughts on this build failure? http://quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net:58080/2052227/buildlog_ubuntu-maverick-i386.kdebase-trinity_4%3A3.5.12-0ubuntu7%2Br1224628%2Bpr74_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz |
samelian | dh_install: kdebase-trinity-doc missing files (debian/tmp/opt/trinity/share/doc/kde/HTML/en/kdebase*-apidocs/*), aborting |
samelian | make: *** [binary-install/kdebase-trinity-doc] Error 255 |
samelian | there is no apidox, yet |
kb9vqf-offsite | oh |
kb9vqf-offsite | BTW were you able to trace the problem with Konqueror? |
samelian | almost |
samelian | the problems is somewhere in sidebar_widget.cpp |
samelian | I replace it with 3.5.11 version, and bug vanish |
samelian | now I must to find exactly what is the problem |
kb9vqf-offsite | samelian: I guess it is in bool Sidebar_Widget::addButton |
kb9vqf-offsite | Hmmm...or not |
samelian | seems that is related to TQPoint |
samelian | when I replace QPoint with TQPoint, bug appear again |
samelian | kb9vqf-offsite: we have if (mod->tqmetaObject()->tqfindSignal("popupMenu(const QPoint&,const KURL&,const TQString&,mode_t)") != -1) { |
samelian | I think that is related somehow to Qt3 |
samelian | Qt3 do not know anything about TQPoint |
kb9vqf-offsite | Yes, you are correct |
kb9vqf-offsite | That is an odd piece of code |
kb9vqf-offsite | Let me look more into the correct solution for it |
kb9vqf-offsite | In the meantime I have a question for you: |
kb9vqf-offsite | Why is this file installed into /debian/tmp/opt/trinity/share/icons/crystalsvg/16x16/actions/curfiledir.png |
kb9vqf-offsite | instead of /debian/tmp/opt/trinity/share/apps/kate/icons/crystalsvg/16x16/actions/curfiledir.png |
kb9vqf-offsite | ? |
samelian | not sure, hang on |
*Piki has joined #trinity-desktop | |
*Piki has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Piki | hi |
samelian | kb9vqf-offsite: a mistake, fixed |
kb9vqf-offsite | ok |
kb9vqf-offsite | I almost have a fix for your bug as well |
samelian | the bug is triggered there: |
samelian | if (mod->tqmetaObject()->tqfindSignal("popupMenu(const TQPoint&,const KFileItemList&)") != -1) { |
kb9vqf-offsite | Yes |
samelian | with QPoint working as expected |
kb9vqf-offsite | Someone will have to go through the Trinity code to verify that my fix is replicated to all instances where the bug might manifest |
kb9vqf-offsite | Hang on while I get it in SVN |
samelian | was really hard to track :) |
samelian | almost 6 hours |
kb9vqf-offsite | Yes, I can understand |
kb9vqf-offsite | Thanks for doing that |
samelian | hehe |
kb9vqf-offsite | It will take a little bit to fix as well |
kb9vqf-offsite | Personally I really, really hate code that uses metaobject->find |
kb9vqf-offsite | It's very easy to break |
samelian | yes, I we said |
samelian | we* |
samelian | bleah |
samelian | saw* |
kb9vqf-offsite | samelian: Can you check compilation and functionality with kdebase SVN revision 1224640? |
samelian | ok |
kb9vqf-offsite | samelian: Did it work |
kb9vqf-offsite | ? |
*kb9vqf-offsite is mostly concerned about compilation errors | |
kb9vqf-offsite | I didn't test compile before commit :-P |
samelian | seems fine in my build tree |
kb9vqf-offsite | ook |
*kb9vqf-offsite really hates this web IRC client | |
samelian | I will recompile konq from scratch |
kb9vqf-offsite | ok |
kb9vqf-offsite | now that you've seen the fix, there may be other locations in the Trinity source tree that also show the same problem |
kb9vqf-offsite | Feel free to fix them in a similar manner ;-) |
samelian | ok |
Piki | kb9vqf-offsite, i have yet to see a good webirc client. i'd have to say the best i've seen is webchat.freenode.net, and i don't even like that one |
kb9vqf-offsite | Not very elegant, but then again using metaobject()->findxxx() is not elegant either ;-) |
kb9vqf-offsite | I'm on webchat.freenode.org |
kb9vqf-offsite | THe bggest problem is that I can't see what I'm typing in real time |
kb9vqf-offsite | And it tends to eat or duplicate keystrokes |
kb9vqf-offsite | Just a reminder to everyone, today is (was?) bug day |
kb9vqf-offsite | Please find a bug at http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net and try to fix it |
samelian | hehe, 1 bug closed |
kb9vqf-offsite | You did your part :) |
samelian | :) |
kb9vqf-offsite | So you can verify that it is actually fixed then? |
kb9vqf-offsite | If so you can close the bug report |
kb9vqf-offsite | (since you were able to reproduce the bug originally) |
samelian | building... |
kb9vqf-offsite | OK |
kb9vqf-offsite | FYI when closing the bug report it is good practice to mention the SVN revision (or revisions) that comprise the fix |
samelian | fixed |
kb9vqf-offsite | good |
samelian | you can close it |
kb9vqf-offsite | ok |
kb9vqf-offsite | samelian: Your next task: http://quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net:58080/2052259/buildlog_ubuntu-maverick-i386.kdebase-trinity_4%3A3.5.12-0ubuntu7%2Br1224638%2Bpr75_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz |
kb9vqf-offsite | :) |
Piki | kb9vqf-offsite, i wish i could participate in bug day, but... :-( |
kb9vqf-offsite | It's OK |
kb9vqf-offsite | We'll have another one |
kb9vqf-offsite | Maybe around a month from now |
kb9vqf-offsite | Someone should mention it in the meeting |
Xu_R | Piki: in case you were wondering, mock: https://fedorahosted.org/mock/ |
Xu_R | fine, it uses yum and runs mainly on fedora, but it's the best for building using clean chroots |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite: i'll add it to the checklist |
kb9vqf-offsite | thanks |
Xu_R | this is going to be a long meeting... xD |
kb9vqf-offsite | Hehe |
kb9vqf-offsite | It's a big project |
Xu_R | well, but now we know what's currently going on :) |
kb9vqf-offsite | Looks like I'll be busy for a while with the Ubuntu builds :( |
Xu_R | fun. ._. |
kb9vqf-offsite | kdebase builds in 7 minutes now though :() |
Xu_R | :O |
samelian | kb9vqf-offsite: I think you can remove TODO, because is not documentation actually |
kb9vqf-offsite | OK |
Piki | Xu_R, i don't know if our repodata is yum-compatible (unless yum uses zypper or apt-get repodata), i'd have to check with bero |
kb9vqf-offsite | Just wantnted to make sure |
Xu_R | Piki: it's compatible |
Xu_R | i checked |
kb9vqf-offsite | grrr....$!@# webirc |
kb9vqf-offsite | I can spell...honest I can.... |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite: LOL it's ok, webchat hates us all :P (but not me, strangely. probably b/c i use it too much) |
kb9vqf-offsite | Xu_R: So, want to help with Bug Day? |
kb9vqf-offsite | :) |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite: I've been eyeing a couple of bugs. |
kb9vqf-offsite | great |
kb9vqf-offsite | I was starting to think we had a two man circus going on here ;-) |
Xu_R | well, 3 man circus isn't that much better XD |
kb9vqf-offsite | hehe |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite: i want to get rid of some bugs that really either should be done or shouldn't |
kb9vqf-offsite | Sure |
Xu_R | for instance, bug #367 |
tbottu | Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=367 min, P5, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, [PATCH] moc-tqt compilation obstacle |
kb9vqf-offsite | Xu_R: That one I think does not matter, as samelian rewrote moc-tqt to be a stream operator |
Xu_R | great. then I'm going to close it? |
kb9vqf-offsite | So for cmake moc-tqt is not even used |
kb9vqf-offsite | samelian, please confirm ^^^^ |
kb9vqf-offsite | Xu_R: Wait for samelian to verify :) |
samelian | yes, cmake do not use moc-tqt at all |
kb9vqf-offsite | OK |
Xu_R | awesome |
Xu_R | closed as fixed. |
kb9vqf-offsite | Go ahead and close it as invalid |
Xu_R | or that. I was going to use fixed |
Xu_R | (because you could say cmake fixes the problem?) |
kb9vqf-offsite | Invalid because tqt-moc is obsolete |
kb9vqf-offsite | The stream version is called something else |
Xu_R | ahh... too many bugzilla differences ._. |
Xu_R | ok |
kb9vqf-offsite | :) |
kb9vqf-offsite | if there was a invalid-superseded I would say to use that |
samelian | cmake using tmoc |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite: The "(Using KDE 3.5.12)" rather than "(Using Trinity 3.5.12)." stuff has been fixed, right? Bug #320 |
tbottu | Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=320 nor, P1, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, Branding Issues |
kb9vqf-offsite | hang on, let me check |
Xu_R | last I checked, I think it had. But I could be blind.... |
kb9vqf-offsite | Here's how to check: with the latest SVN, go to Konsole->Help->About Konsole |
kb9vqf-offsite | On my 3.5.12 system it is not fixed |
kb9vqf-offsite | But it could be fixed in SVN |
*kb9vqf-offsite has no way of knowing ATM | |
samelian | but the idea for bug #367 remain, tmoc do not check presence of tqt-replace-stream |
tbottu | Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=367 min, P5, ---, kb9vqf, RESO INVALID, [PATCH] moc-tqt compilation obstacle |
kb9vqf-offsite | Xu_R: Can you take a look at tmoc and see if you can change it to fail with an obvious error if tqt-replace-stream is not foudn? |
kb9vqf-offsite | Or actually I can do that :) |
kb9vqf-offsite | Instead, can you check to see if bug 320 is fixed in SVN or not? |
tbottu | Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=320 nor, P1, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, Branding Issues |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite: sure |
kb9vqf-offsite | thanks |
Xu_R | bug #320 seems fixed on my trinity 3.5.12... |
tbottu | Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=320 nor, P1, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, Branding Issues |
Xu_R | oh, yea, it's fixed. |
kb9vqf-offsite | Xu_R: So the Konsole about dialog (not the Trinity about dialog) shows Trinity 3.5.13? |
Xu_R | oh wait |
Xu_R | shoot. |
Xu_R | i opened up another window |
Xu_R | and it said kde... |
Xu_R | never mind. |
*Xu_R IS blind. | |
kb9vqf-offsite | Should be simple to fix |
kb9vqf-offsite | Want to find it in the source code and let us know the line to change? |
kb9vqf-offsite | My guess is it's in kdelibs/kdeui somewhere |
Xu_R | ok, i'll look through there |
kb9vqf-offsite | thanks--poke me when/if you find something |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite |
Xu_R | ping |
Xu_R | yay for kate. lol. |
Xu_R | kdelibs/kdeui/kaboutdialog.cpp, line 704 |
kb9vqf-offsite | OK |
kb9vqf-offsite | Hang on while I change it in SVN |
Xu_R | waiting for a revision :) |
kb9vqf-offsite | Xu_R: 1224644 |
Xu_R | got it |
kb9vqf-offsite | Thanks for tracking that down |
kb9vqf-offsite | Keep going... ;-) |
Xu_R | hehe |
samelian | time to sleep, gn all |
kb9vqf-offsite | OK |
Xu_R | night samelian :) |
kb9vqf-offsite | thanks for all your help :) |
samelian | welcome :) |
Xu_R | kb9qvf-offsite: #339 - I deem tqtinterface an overriding reason. |
kb9vqf-offsite | bug 339 |
Xu_R | tbottu, bug #339 |
tbottu | Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=339 nor, P1, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, Duplicating upstream efforts |
tbottu | Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=339 nor, P1, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, Duplicating upstream efforts |
kb9vqf-offsite | Xu_R: It would be for python-kde3 |
kb9vqf-offsite | Not sure about the others |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite: to me, the rest don't look maintained upstream |
kb9vqf-offsite | Go ahead and mention that tqtinterface breaks direct compat, but that we will need to keep pulling patches from those upstream sources |
Xu_R | they still have it on the website though |
kb9vqf-offsite | And also mention that :) |
kb9vqf-offsite | At this juncture I'm going to say mark it WONTFIX |
Xu_R | hey, I agree! XD |
kb9vqf-offsite | :) |
kb9vqf-offsite | Just be sure to mention WHY |
kb9vqf-offsite | WONTFIX should be used sparingly and with very good justification |
kb9vqf-offsite | Xu_R: So, which bug next? |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite: if at all :P |
kb9vqf-offsite | Hehe |
Xu_R | bug #419; I think it's related to Slackware's RC handling |
tbottu | Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=419 min, P5, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, "Shutdown" option in KDM menu hangs KDM |
Xu_R | and therefore not a Trinity problem :-\ |
kb9vqf-offsite | I've seen it myself |
kb9vqf-offsite | Under Debian |
Xu_R | oh. |
Xu_R | that changes everything. |
kb9vqf-offsite | My hunch is a window stacking problem |
Xu_R | D: |
kb9vqf-offsite | The code is in kdebase/kdm |
kb9vqf-offsite | If you want to take a look |
kb9vqf-offsite | I would see what is different in the Ubuntu version (which works) versus the Debian version (which fails) |
Xu_R | I think I'll just bump the priority for now, so that way this is a top issue for later. |
kb9vqf-offsite | Sure |
kb9vqf-offsite | I'd look but QuickBuild is not building kdebase yet |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite: Before we release 3.5.13, however, this should very much be fixed. |
kb9vqf-offsite | Of course |
kb9vqf-offsite | I want to see all the bugs dealt with |
Xu_R | (marking P1, blocker) |
kb9vqf-offsite | Once kdebase builds I'll look into it |
Xu_R | ok :) |
Xu_R | if you are wondering what list I am using, it's this query: http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/buglist.cgi?query_format=advanced&order=Importance&bug_status=UNCONFIRMED&bug_status=NEW&bug_status=CONFIRMED&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=REOPENED&version=3.5.12%20%5BTrinity%5D&version=3.5.13%20%5BTrinity%5D&product=TDE%203.5 |
kb9vqf-offsite | next.... |
kb9vqf-offsite | sure |
kb9vqf-offsite | I'm just offloading triage to you ATM |
kb9vqf-offsite | :) |
Xu_R | hehe |
Xu_R | bug #449 |
tbottu | Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=449 nor, P5, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, kdebase - Login Manager default needs Kubuntu removal and Font size update |
Xu_R | a very recent one |
kb9vqf-offsite | Xu_R: want to trace it for me? |
Xu_R | sure... i'll take a look in kdebase/kdm? (or something of the sort?) |
kb9vqf-offsite | Yes |
kb9vqf-offsite | There aren't very many files there |
kb9vqf-offsite | Any Kubuntu references you find, just send me the line # |
kb9vqf-offsite | and finelname |
kb9vqf-offsite | *filename |
Xu_R | got it, looking |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite: WOAH |
kb9vqf-offsite | ? |
Xu_R | found something for bug #419 in the process |
tbottu | Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=419 blo, P1, ---, kb9vqf, ASSI, "Shutdown" option in KDM menu hangs KDM |
Xu_R | kfrontend/kdmshutdown.cpp, lines 470 and 477 |
Xu_R | Shutdown calls a "doUbuntuLogout" |
Xu_R | do you think that might be related? |
Xu_R | (sorry about the dramaticness, i was just looking through xD) |
kb9vqf-offsite | Xu_R: Look more closely :) |
kb9vqf-offsite | And yes, it is related |
kb9vqf-offsite | doUbuntuLogout is ONLY executed if a config file directive is present |
kb9vqf-offsite | It just does a fancy looking logout animation |
kb9vqf-offsite | the Ubuntu reference is only in the code, and is there as an "homage" to the project which wrote it |
Xu_R | ah, yea... now I see it. |
kb9vqf-offsite | There is a similar chunk of code referencing OpenSUSE somewhere else |
Xu_R | lol. not surprised ;) |
kb9vqf-offsite | But nothing user visible ;-) |
Xu_R | anyway, to me it seems that bug #449 is fixed... I just searched "Welcome" and I found "Welcome to Trinity", so... |
tbottu | Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=449 nor, P5, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, kdebase - Login Manager default needs Kubuntu removal and Font size update |
Xu_R | hmm... |
kb9vqf-offsite | I would verify that |
Xu_R | hmmm... "Welcome to %h"... |
kb9vqf-offsite | Yeah, if you can't reproduce the bug on your system just move to the next |
Xu_R | yea. I got nothing. |
kb9vqf-offsite | DON'T change its status though :) |
Xu_R | didn't touch the status :P |
kb9vqf-offsite | We'll run through the bugtracker again before release |
kb9vqf-offsite | with a full dev team we can verify that the bug is truly gone |
kb9vqf-offsite | But for now I know CMake is incomplete, making this harder |
Xu_R | bug #351... Ilya submitted patches for this, and shouldn't we just add them? I can't run builds atm, even though I added it to try to test it (but now I can't) |
tbottu | Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=351 enh, P5, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, Fix Flash in Konqueror |
kb9vqf-offsite | Yes |
kb9vqf-offsite | Let me do that now |
kb9vqf-offsite | Hmmm....link to the patch? |
Xu_R | hold on |
Xu_R | https://api.opensuse.org/public/source/KDE:KDE3/kdebase3/nsplugin-init-gtk.diff |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite: I'll email the ML about it committed and then close the bug :) |
Xu_R | (well, when you patch it. lol.) |
kb9vqf-offsite | Xu_R: SVN revision 1224648. |
kb9vqf-offsite | Next |
kb9vqf-offsite | :) |
Xu_R | hehe |
Xu_R | slow down now :P |
kb9vqf-offsite | :) |
kb9vqf-offsite | This is actually quite efficient |
kb9vqf-offsite | I'm doing a lot of things at once |
Xu_R | :D |
kb9vqf-offsite | Saves me the trouble of hunting down the problem |
kb9vqf-offsite | or patchfile |
Xu_R | bug #429, this is interesting. |
tbottu | Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=429 nor, P5, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, Kicker crashes because of Esc key |
kb9vqf-offsite | Hmm |
kb9vqf-offsite | We need a backtrace |
Xu_R | Yes... We'll need to ask that from him. I can't reproduce it. |
kb9vqf-offsite | MutantTurkey: You around? |
kb9vqf-offsite | I need a CMake fix :) |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite: could it be this: "In case it's relevant: my Esc and Caps Lock keys are swapped." |
kb9vqf-offsite | Yes, but with no backtrace.... |
kb9vqf-offsite | We need that trace to know what went wrong |
Xu_R | should I ask for that? you'll need to give me a command that I should relay to him. |
kb9vqf-offsite | Xu_R: Yes, ask for it, but all he needs is to have the debug packages installed (kdebase-kde3-dbg) and save the crash log from the DrKonqui popup |
Xu_R | ok |
Xu_R | D: Why don't you have a NEEDINFO status? :( That's an essential thing for a Bugzilla... |
kb9vqf-offsite | Hang on |
kb9vqf-offsite | Xu_R: Try it now |
Xu_R | ok |
Xu_R | done :D |
kb9vqf-offsite | Next.... |
Xu_R | bug #446 - hmm... |
tbottu | Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=446 cri, P5, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, ktorrent crashes |
kb9vqf-offsite | Xu_R: Same |
kb9vqf-offsite | We need a backtrace |
kb9vqf-offsite | If there is no backtrace just mark it NEEDINFO |
kb9vqf-offsite | And copy/paste what you wrote last time :) |
Xu_R | done |
Xu_R | bug #443 seems to be something similar with ktorrent |
tbottu | Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=443 nor, P5, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, ktorrent statistic module crash ktorrent |
Xu_R | also require a backtrace, probably |
kb9vqf-offsite | Yes |
Xu_R | bug #349 |
tbottu | Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=349 nor, P5, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, Files are saved with incorrect group ownership |
Xu_R | this doesn't look trinity-ish to me. :-\ |
Xu_R | actually, it might just be trinity-global - the save as dialog saves everything in the same manner, right? |
kb9vqf-offsite | Xu_R: It is trinity-ish |
kb9vqf-offsite | Check ksnapshot sources |
kb9vqf-offsite | Find the save command function |
kb9vqf-offsite | Send the line # to me and I'll look at it |
kb9vqf-offsite | That is, the function that is called to do the actual saving ;-) |
Xu_R | I know :P |
kb9vqf-offsite | Yeah, I was unclear though |
kb9vqf-offsite | Just wanted not to send you on a wild goose chase |
Xu_R | >_< it's all over ksnapshot.cpp? a good place to start is line 209 |
kb9vqf-offsite | Which module? |
kb9vqf-offsite | kdebase? |
Xu_R | kdegraphics |
kb9vqf-offsite | Hmm |
kb9vqf-offsite | Looks like a bug in KSaveFile::KSaveFile |
kb9vqf-offsite | the class, that is |
Xu_R | yes... |
Xu_R | probably not ksnapshot-specific? |
kb9vqf-offsite | probably not |
kb9vqf-offsite | I'd say it's in kdelibs |
kb9vqf-offsite | But first, what class type is snapshot? |
kb9vqf-offsite | It's used in bool KSnapshot::save( const KURL& url ) |
Xu_R | I don't know... |
kb9vqf-offsite | TQPixmap |
Xu_R | hmm.. |
Xu_R | oh. was just about to look in the header. lol. |
kb9vqf-offsite | So it is either in KSaveFile OR TQPixmap |
kb9vqf-offsite | Yep, it's in KSaveFile |
kb9vqf-offsite | Not sure where, but looks like create modes are handled there |
kb9vqf-offsite | KSaveFile is in kdelibs |
kb9vqf-offsite | Even better, kde4 still uses it |
kb9vqf-offsite | So the bug may have been fixed somewhere in kde4 already |
Xu_R | fun. |
kb9vqf-offsite | or, given KDE4's track record, it may not have been fixed at all :-P |
Xu_R | xD |
kb9vqf-offsite | This is not a simple bug by any means |
kb9vqf-offsite | Mark it as kdelibs, note that KSaveFile is the culprit, and move on |
Xu_R | done |
Xu_R | just want to stop and ask... |
Xu_R | that kickoff icon |
Xu_R | (the pixelated, crappy looking icon) |
Xu_R | where is it located? |
kb9vqf-offsite | Xu_R: Almost done you mean |
kb9vqf-offsite | You didn't change the module in the dropdown list ;-) |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite: ah, damnit. lol |
kb9vqf-offsite | Xu_R: Also clean out the cruft from the text boxes on the right hand side of the screen |
kb9vqf-offsite | app version/ap name |
Xu_R | done. lol. |
kb9vqf-offsite | ok |
kb9vqf-offsite | now, what icon again? |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf-offsite:am now sorry |
MutantTurkey | my friends yet again overstayed their welcome |
kb9vqf-offsite | It's OK |
MutantTurkey | we managed to watch rush hour 1, 2, and 3 |
kb9vqf-offsite | I may have a fix already--testing now |
MutantTurkey | new site is looking good :) |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite: the kickoff icon |
Xu_R | the other kmenu :P |
Xu_R | the one that says "Go!" and is horribly pixelated |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf-offsite: I have made good progress on kdegraphics |
kb9vqf-offsite | Ah, the ugly KDE4-ish menu? |
Xu_R | yeah. |
kb9vqf-offsite | What about it? |
kb9vqf-offsite | MutantTurkey: Good |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite: location of the icon in svn? I want to mark it down |
Xu_R | so that way it can be replaced with something better in the future? |
Xu_R | besides, it still uses the KDE Icon |
kb9vqf-offsite | Oh, ughh |
kb9vqf-offsite | Try kdebase |
kb9vqf-offsite | Or wait |
kb9vqf-offsite | If it's what I think it is then it's actually embedded in a .ui file :-P |
Xu_R | D: |
kb9vqf-offsite | Yeah , blame OpenSUSE and their "wonderful way of doing things" |
kb9vqf-offsite | Reminds me of M$ |
Xu_R | bleghh. |
kb9vqf-offsite | They wanted to make sure their logos stayed in there, so I removed them anyway :)) |
Xu_R | xD |
kb9vqf-offsite | It's in kdebase/kicker somewhere |
kb9vqf-offsite | Xu_R: kicker/kicker/core/kmenubase.ui |
kb9vqf-offsite | IIRC that is the image you are referring to |
Xu_R | oh jeez |
Xu_R | yea, I see it. |
kb9vqf-offsite | Maybe strangelv can come up with a better image to replace it |
Xu_R | oh, no, it's somewhere else |
Xu_R | it's in kicker/data/kickoff/ |
Xu_R | and it's full of pngs... |
Xu_R | well, just one png and three mngs |
kb9vqf-offsite | Ah, OK |
kb9vqf-offsite | It's a mess, isn't it? |
Xu_R | yes. |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf-offsite: i have: kamera, kcoloredit, kfax, kfile-plugins kghostview, kiconedit, kooka, kruler ksnapshot kview and libkscan :) |
kb9vqf-offsite | Kind of like a little bit of KDE4 brought to KDE3 :-P |
kb9vqf-offsite | MutantTurkey: Great! |
Xu_R | don't we just love the internals? >_< |
kb9vqf-offsite | How much of kdegraphics is that? |
MutantTurkey | uh |
Xu_R | </sarcasm> |
kb9vqf-offsite | Sounds like most of it |
MutantTurkey | more than half easily |
MutantTurkey | 22 total, 12 done |
kb9vqf-offsite | Good, good. Keep working on it, I think a large batch commit to SVN is the best way to handle it |
MutantTurkey | many are partially done, and ar hanging |
kb9vqf-offsite | That way we don't confuse packagers :-) |
MutantTurkey | agreed |
MutantTurkey | so I need to clean it up, check everything out etc. |
kb9vqf-offsite | Sure |
MutantTurkey | then i will send it over |
Xu_R | ok, there are so many build warning bugs I'm going to go crazy XD |
kb9vqf-offsite | Take your time, do it right |
MutantTurkey | agreed |
kb9vqf-offsite | Xu_R: Hehe |
MutantTurkey | samelian is worried for i am sloppy :p I am trying to be neat |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: :P do not worry, we will help! XD |
kb9vqf-offsite | You are learning |
kb9vqf-offsite | That is OK |
MutantTurkey | my mind just works at many problems at once, he wants me to do one at a time, boring! :p |
MutantTurkey | i like to jump around |
Xu_R | speaking of that, I have to send out tde.ietherpad.com accounts soon. i think we work better when we collab there. here... it's just logs and then forget. |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite: let's start with this: bug #327 |
tbottu | Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=327 nor, P3, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, libcaldav build warnings |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: oh yes definitely agreed, though i don't love ietherpad, the idea is right |
MutantTurkey | I may search for a replacement one, same idea though |
kb9vqf-offsite | MutantTurkey: How about something I can host here |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: or we could ask kb9vqf to host an etherpad instance, although kb9vqf has too much stuff XD |
Xu_R | etherpadfoundation.org :P |
Xu_R | the source is freely available |
kb9vqf-offsite | OK |
kb9vqf-offsite | I can host one |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf-offsite: yeah. |
MutantTurkey | thats what i was thinking |
kb9vqf-offsite | I just don't like having our core stuff on someone else's equipment |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite: eeps, wrong link. it's now http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&cd=3&ved=0CC8QFjAC&url=http%3A%2F%2Fetherpad.org%2F&ei=gTh8TdLLK_Oy0QGft4XtAw&usg=AFQjCNFGqtdp_2XtgkqopSsKZbyFf4fJog&sig2=R06YcJCWpvREayBJd68ZSA |
MutantTurkey | I just think some of it is pointless |
Xu_R | *fK YOU GOOGLE javascript* |
MutantTurkey | we shouldn't have a chat on there, and its not exactly fast and easy |
kb9vqf-offsite | Hey, if there's abetter replacement then..... |
MutantTurkey | es i am looking |
Xu_R | http://etherpad.org/ |
kb9vqf-offsite | Xu_R: Mark #327 WONTFIX |
kb9vqf-offsite | I really, really don't care about warnings from a deprecated build system' |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite: hey, there's a nice debian repository for you to use etherpad from :P |
kb9vqf-offsite | Hehe |
kb9vqf-offsite | Makes it easier! |
Xu_R | :D |
Xu_R | so it's set - we host our etherpad on kb9vqf's servers :D |
Xu_R | and it makes his life easier if he runs apt-get upgrade |
kb9vqf-offsite | I can also see about...ummm...deactivating the chat |
kb9vqf-offsite | :) |
Xu_R | XD |
MutantTurkey | I like collabedit |
MutantTurkey | for a many reasons |
MutantTurkey | it is simler and the layout is cleanear, also you can get a plain text of the file |
kb9vqf-offsite | MutantTurkey: FOSS? |
MutantTurkey | yeah? |
Xu_R | FOSS is a good reason too :P |
MutantTurkey | yes agreed |
Xu_R | amarok build warnings... bug #330 |
tbottu | Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=330 nor, P3, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, amarok build warnings |
Xu_R | also going to mark WONTFIX |
MutantTurkey | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collaborative_real-time_editor#Browser-based |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: are all the build warnings on the same problems? |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: I told you etherpad was great :D |
kb9vqf-offsite | Anything with warnings about automake just close as WONTFIX |
Xu_R | ok |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf-offsite: good idea. |
MutantTurkey | have we made good progress today so far? |
kb9vqf-offsite | Mention that automake is deprecated and to file a new bug if there are warnings when built with CMAke |
Xu_R | -_____-* |
kb9vqf-offsite | MutantTurkey: Not as good as I would have liked, but a few bugs did get closed out, so I won't complain :) |
MutantTurkey | yeah, its only our first one :P we will be sure to get the hang of this. |
kb9vqf-offsite | Yup |
kb9vqf-offsite | Having CMake further along will greatly help as well |
Xu_R | AHH so many build warnings -_- |
kb9vqf-offsite | Most can probably be closed out though :) |
Xu_R | doing all of that right now XD |
kb9vqf-offsite | Mark those that can't be as lowest possible priority |
kb9vqf-offsite | :) |
Xu_R | :P |
Xu_R | they are all automake warnings though |
kb9vqf-offsite | eeek....so much Email |
kb9vqf-offsite | :) |
Xu_R | so they're all wontfix |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite XD |
Xu_R | incoming! XD |
kb9vqf-offsite | Yep |
Xu_R | o_O |
Xu_R | I collided with myself on bugzilla... |
Xu_R | wow. xD |
MutantTurkey | wait, who was it that got the table at FOSSCON? |
MutantTurkey | kris or robert? |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: Piki |
Xu_R | not me |
Xu_R | I'm too far away XD |
MutantTurkey | ok. dc though? |
MutantTurkey | thats only like 3-4 hours bud. |
Xu_R | I know |
MutantTurkey | closer than pittsburgh |
Xu_R | but still |
MutantTurkey | ok. i understand :p |
Xu_R | xD |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf-offsite: did i talk to you about FOSSCON yet? |
kb9vqf-offsite | I've seen some of your chat on IRC |
Xu_R | it's not rejection, MutantTurkey. it's called asian parents. xD |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf-offsite: ok, so there is a F/OSS conference (basically alot of speakers, but there are also tables/booths) what do you think of an TDE table? |
MutantTurkey | it is in july so we have plenty of time. |
kb9vqf-offsite | I can't make it (obviously) |
MutantTurkey | Piki is getting a Ark Linux table, i may just sit in with him |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf-offsite: I understand, I can run it though |
kb9vqf-offsite | What would you have available there? |
kb9vqf-offsite | What is the deadline to know if we want to run a table? |
MutantTurkey | uh, I don't know D: I haven't thoguht of that. |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: you'll need to make a lot of posters, screenshots, a laptop for them to try out :P |
MutantTurkey | like june. |
kb9vqf-offsite | OK |
MutantTurkey | posters, screens and demos yes. |
Xu_R | highlights... etc |
MutantTurkey | as well as CD's and usbs |
kb9vqf-offsite | Let's talk about it in the meeting |
MutantTurkey | people love livecds |
MutantTurkey | ok. |
Xu_R | got it. |
MutantTurkey | robert, add it to the list? |
kb9vqf-offsite | We may not know until right before (in June) |
MutantTurkey | right, that is ok |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: please add to etherpad, i'm busy killing bugs XD |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: ok |
kb9vqf-offsite | It will depend on how far along we are |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite: when you manage to get onsite, let's have an etherpad instance :D |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf-offsite: worst comes to worst, I will just join Piki and he will be premoting it through Ark Linux |
kb9vqf-offsite | i.e. "we won't have a release for 6 months" is probably a bad idea :) |
kb9vqf-offsite | but if 3.5.13 works and is STABLE then I would recomment it |
kb9vqf-offsite | *recommend |
Xu_R | yes. we need to have an absolute go/no-go |
kb9vqf-offsite | Xu_R: Agreed |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf-offsite: good to get our name out there. |
kb9vqf-offsite | Yes it is |
kb9vqf-offsite | But i a good way, not a bad way ;-) |
kb9vqf-offsite | *in |
MutantTurkey | exactly. |
kb9vqf-offsite | Like I said, let's see where we are in a couple of months |
kb9vqf-offsite | For all I know the bugs in the bugtracker can be fixed easily |
kb9vqf-offsite | A Qt4 demo wouldn't hurt wither |
kb9vqf-offsite | *either |
MutantTurkey | :) i have faith in the project |
Xu_R | hehe :) |
kb9vqf-offsite | Misplaced you said? ;-) |
MutantTurkey | more people are willing to help out, the dev list is busy, we are pooling ourefforts on the etherpad |
MutantTurkey | meetings are planned. |
kb9vqf-offsite | Yes |
MutantTurkey | now we just need to do the work xD |
kb9vqf-offsite | It is starting to take a life of its own |
Xu_R | let's continue then :) |
kb9vqf-offsite | Which is very good from my perspective :) |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite: while i'm busy killing bugs, can you please take a look at Bug #289? |
tbottu | Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=289 nor, P3, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, KInfoCenter Not Purged from Desktop and Still Contains Two Modules |
kb9vqf-offsite | sure |
Xu_R | I can confirm this bug - it gets confusing. |
kb9vqf-offsite | ah, darn |
kb9vqf-offsite | It's simple too :-P |
Xu_R | fix it quickly, then? :P |
kb9vqf-offsite | Looking to do just that |
kb9vqf-offsite | Asuming I can find the bloody desktop files |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: added the bit to the etherpad. |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite: lol |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: awesome! wed's meeting is going to be very long now though... xD |
MutantTurkey | D: it is ok, we will move fast. we just need to mention stuff ya know. |
kb9vqf-offsite | Xu_R: Can you export the files from the current etherpad and import them to the project's etherpad? |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite: yes |
kb9vqf-offsite | OK |
kb9vqf-offsite | I'll try to have it up for the meeting |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite: okees |
kb9vqf-offsite | This is weird though |
kb9vqf-offsite | A search for PCMCIA is not showing up anything |
Xu_R | D: |
*kb9vqf-offsite goes to try Plan B | |
Xu_R | dum dum dum? |
kb9vqf-offsite | Xu_R: I don't see those two orphaned modules (PCMCIA and storage) |
kb9vqf-offsite | my kinfocenter is blank |
kb9vqf-offsite | Are you sure they are from Trinity?? |
MutantTurkey | kmrml done :) |
Xu_R | yup |
Xu_R | I have storage right in my window right now |
Xu_R | "Storage Devices" |
kb9vqf-offsite | Ah, found PCMCIA |
kb9vqf-offsite | it's in kdeutils |
Xu_R | yayy, we've killed about 30 bugs. good progress indeed. |
Xu_R | now to kill the rest of the 132 that are marked 3.5.12/3.5.13 xD |
MutantTurkey | that is excellent progress |
MutantTurkey | that is like 20% of the bugs |
Xu_R | :D |
kb9vqf-offsite | Xu_R: Fixed in SVN revision 1224654. |
Xu_R | ok |
Xu_R | we're getting good progress :D |
Xu_R | bug 296... |
tbottu | Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=296 nor, P3, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, New Trinity Profile Error Messages |
kb9vqf-offsite | Ah, that |
kb9vqf-offsite | I remember that |
MutantTurkey | should i report build warnings r not? |
kb9vqf-offsite | MutantTurkey: I am not sure |
kb9vqf-offsite | I don't want to flood the bugtracker |
MutantTurkey | ok. |
MutantTurkey | I will not, I mean they are pretty small and not problematic, yet. |
kb9vqf-offsite | I'm leaning towards not reporting them |
MutantTurkey | undestandable |
kb9vqf-offsite | We can always try to fix them when we have extra time (ha ha) |
kb9vqf-offsite | Or let the newbies cut their teeth on them |
kb9vqf-offsite | Xu_R: Let's skip that one for now |
MutantTurkey | hmmm, I am trying to link kmrml and i get a link error: undefined reference to....etc KDEModule::qt_invote( balh balh) and some others |
Xu_R | ok. |
kb9vqf-offsite | There is no obvious solution |
MutantTurkey | what library is that from? |
kb9vqf-offsite | libqt |
kb9vqf-offsite | err, wait |
MutantTurkey | under kdeui-shared? |
Xu_R | bug 336 - I can't tell if you want to do this or not, but it's not trinity-life-threatening |
tbottu | Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=336 nor, P3, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, ksystemlog bugs and enhancements |
kb9vqf-offsite | Leave it alone for now |
kb9vqf-offsite | Actually, mark it as feature request |
kb9vqf-offsite | I guess bugzilla calls it "enhancement" |
kb9vqf-offsite | It's a special category |
kb9vqf-offsite | Bugs in the "enhancement" category will never, ever block a release |
Xu_R | bug 288 next |
tbottu | Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=288 nor, P3, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, kdelibs icon bug |
kb9vqf-offsite | Yep, that needs to be dealt with |
kb9vqf-offsite | Hang on |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite: bugzilla details are defined by the administrators of the bugzilla, kb9vqf-offsite... xD |
kb9vqf-offsite | I know |
kb9vqf-offsite | I have tried to keep it as close to the defaults as practical |
Xu_R | ah, ok. |
kb9vqf-offsite | For consistancy's sake |
kb9vqf-offsite | Xu_R: Looks like that bug was already fixed |
kb9vqf-offsite | I don't have an SVN umber |
kb9vqf-offsite | *number |
Xu_R | oh, ok |
kb9vqf-offsite | Xu_R WAIT |
kb9vqf-offsite | 1185622 |
kb9vqf-offsite | svn info is quite helpful :) |
Xu_R | sigh. lol. |
*kb9vqf-offsite was not sure that "svn info" would actually work | |
MutantTurkey | what is a .moc file? I don't understand the idea |
MutantTurkey | or what moc does |
kb9vqf-offsite | meta object compiler |
Xu_R | xD |
kb9vqf-offsite | google it :) |
MutantTurkey | ok |
MutantTurkey | will do. |
Xu_R | bug 294 - I don't know about this one. |
tbottu | Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=294 nor, P3, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, KControl Zeroconf Service Discovery Module |
kb9vqf-offsite | Best wait for samelian on that one |
kb9vqf-offsite | He would know how to add the conditionals to CMake |
Xu_R | ok |
MutantTurkey | I may know |
Xu_R | bug 404 - was this fixed for us? |
kb9vqf-offsite | MutantTurkey: OK |
tbottu | Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=404 min, P5, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, plymouthd does not quit on starting kdm |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf-offsite: nah no idea, sorry |
kb9vqf-offsite | Oh, OK |
MutantTurkey | haven't learned that part of it yet. |
kb9vqf-offsite | I figured--it's kind of advanced |
kb9vqf-offsite | It took a while for me to figure out how to do that with Automake |
MutantTurkey | I have all the basic stuff done :) so if its something you think i may no don't hesitate |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite: 404 looks fixed on this end. |
MutantTurkey | know' |
kb9vqf-offsite | Xu_R: Hang on |
kb9vqf-offsite | It may not be fixed |
kb9vqf-offsite | I'm trying to find the real patch |
kb9vqf-offsite | Xu_R: NO, 404 is NOT fixed |
Xu_R | really? wow. cause I don't see a plymouthd on my end while using trinity. |
kb9vqf-offsite | On Ubuntu? |
Xu_R | yes |
kb9vqf-offsite | Oh |
kb9vqf-offsite | Well |
kb9vqf-offsite | In that case... |
kb9vqf-offsite | mark it worksforme |
kb9vqf-offsite | maybe the init scripts were changed |
kb9vqf-offsite | I just checked for the patch code |
MutantTurkey | D: daylight savings and I have to be at church at 7:45 |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: D: |
MutantTurkey | gah |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite: I'll reboot my TDE vm and check again |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite: yea, no plymouthd |
kb9vqf-offsite | Hmmm |
kb9vqf-offsite | I don't trust it |
kb9vqf-offsite | Let me commit their fix |
Xu_R | xD |
kb9vqf-offsite | Xu_R: It does not apply cleanly |
kb9vqf-offsite | Mark #404 NEEDSINFO and request that he upgrade/try again |
kb9vqf-offsite | Also have him verify that he is indeed running 3.5.12 |
Xu_R | ok |
Xu_R | done |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite |
Xu_R | : |
Xu_R | he needs to upgrade to Maverick |
Xu_R | because the fix was released for that |
Xu_R | he's not on the latest Ubuntu. |
kb9vqf-offsite | Ah, OK |
kb9vqf-offsite | Mark it fixed then and mention that we can't fix for Luxid |
kb9vqf-offsite | *Lucid |
Xu_R | bug 420 next :-\ |
tbottu | Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=420 min, P5, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, Keyboard cursor keys behaves strangely (non deterministic) in file dialogs |
*kb9vqf-offsite has to go | |
kb9vqf-offsite | sorry :( |
Xu_R | eh, np |
Xu_R | getting late anyway :P |
kb9vqf-offsite | We did get a lot fixed :) |
Xu_R | :D |
kb9vqf-offsite | MutantTurkey: http://quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net:58080/2052371/buildlog_ubuntu-maverick-i386.kdebase-trinity_4%3A3.5.12-0ubuntu7%2Br1224649%2Bpr78_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz |
Xu_R | bug day success? |
MutantTurkey | as far as i am concerned, I don't think we should support anything other than the current ubuntu release and the lts, as far as it goes |
MutantTurkey | for ubuntu |
kb9vqf-offsite | MutantTurkey: Can you and samelian figure that one out? |
kb9vqf-offsite | MutantTurkey: Yes |
MutantTurkey | ok i am looking now |
kb9vqf-offsite | Seems the kcontrol samba .la file is not beeing built |
kb9vqf-offsite | *being |
kb9vqf-offsite | Thanks |
kb9vqf-offsite | MutantTurkey: If you can't figure it out, can you Email samelian for me? |
kb9vqf-offsite | And if you do, can you just let me know via Email |
kb9vqf-offsite | do figure it out, that is |
*kb9vqf-offsite thinks samelian will have to commit it anyway | |
kb9vqf-offsite | gn all |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf-offsite: that is a crazy amount of output |
MutantTurkey | where is the problem? I don't really see it. it looks to build 100%? |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite: night :) |
MutantTurkey | gn |
kb9vqf-offsite | MutantTurkey: it's actually a missing file |
kb9vqf-offsite | Look down to the point right before Debian packages are deinstalled |
MutantTurkey | ok |
kb9vqf-offsite | It will say it "couldn't find a file" |
kb9vqf-offsite | That file is missing |
kb9vqf-offsite | cmake didn't build it |
kb9vqf-offsite | Thanks :) |
Xu_R | oh yea,2326, time to sleep xD |
Xu_R | night MutantTurkey :) |
MutantTurkey | yes same h ere. |
MutantTurkey | I think i am ready to pass out |
Xu_R | hehe |
Xu_R | night :) |
MutantTurkey | night |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: send out an email on the list, maybe just point out a few things you guys fixed, say "super succesful bug day" etc. |
MutantTurkey | good confidence booster for everyone to know you guys made progress |
MutantTurkey | and or list the bugs fixed today |

kb9vqf-offsite | Ah |
kb9vqf-offsite | Sorry |
kb9vqf-offsite | I'm still on the webchat, so it was a bit confusing at first |
Xu_R | oh. lol. |
kb9vqf-offsite | It would help to know which pages have the problem..... |
Xu_R | on installation.php |
Xu_R | there are "&rarr"'s showing up |

*Piki has joined #trinity-desktop | |
*Piki has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Piki | hi |
Piki | kb9vqf-offsite, tbottu is sending the welcome notice twice in a row for some reason, been doing that for a couple of days now |
Xu_R | Piki: you have a hostmask. You d/c and r/c to the channel :-\ |
Piki | i always thought that was supposed to be set when identified, which my client does before i join any channel |
Xu_R | Piki: nope. you can join before you're masked |
Xu_R | and then you're parted and rejoined when the mask is set :-\ |
Piki | then i should get voiced twice in #arklinux, right? (actually i am, once from chanserv, and once from our bot, but if i rejoin, i should get two voices from each for a total of 4) |
kb9vqf-offsite | I guess it depends on bot configuration |
Xu_R | i don't know about that, I don't use hostmasks :-\ I'm just reading this from freenode faq. |
kb9vqf-offsite | tbottu sends the notice on all joins |
tbottu | kb9vqf-offsite: Sorry, I've no idea what 'sends the notice on all joins' might be. |
kb9vqf-offsite | the arklinux bot may not |
*kb9vqf-offsite is not sure | |
Piki | our bot doesn't do welcome messages (at least not at the moment), but his script makes him voice on all joins, so if i were to leave and rejoin, he'd voice me |
Piki | AFAIK chanserv is the same way |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite: can you take alook at bug #405 (this isn't like yesterday, i'm not going to keep feeding bugs, but this one seems important) |
tbottu | Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=405 nor, P5, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, Adblock icons multiplying in Konqeuror |
kb9vqf-offsite | Xu_R: I can confirm it |
kb9vqf-offsite | The little filter icons IIRC |
Xu_R | haven't tried it, but you're the boss :P ok, mark it as assigned and bump priority? |
kb9vqf-offsite | yep |
kb9vqf-offsite | my desktop is acting up as well (it figures, right?) |
kb9vqf-offsite | so I'm on my laptop |
Xu_R | lol |
kb9vqf-offsite | and I have no practical way of fixing bugs on a small 15" screen :) |
Xu_R | since when is 15" small? :P |
kb9vqf-offsite | Since I have 2 23" screens |
kb9vqf-offsite | on my primary workstation |
Xu_R | ...damn. lol. |
kb9vqf-offsite | It really accelerates the work |
kb9vqf-offsite | how do you think I did this project by myself all this time? ;-) |
Xu_R | xD now now, no bragging XD |
kb9vqf-offsite | hehe |
kb9vqf-offsite | although having the proper resources does save a lot of time |
Xu_R | always does, hm? :) |
kb9vqf-offsite | in my experience for sure! |
kb9vqf-offsite | :) |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite: bumped and assigned :) |
kb9vqf-offsite | thanks |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite: also... |
Xu_R | why does kcontrol still launch a similar info center? |
kb9vqf-offsite | info center should be disabled in SVN |
kb9vqf-offsite | the desktop shortcut anyway |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite: but there's also kcontrol |
kb9vqf-offsite | I'm not going to rip out the infocenter code yet |
kb9vqf-offsite | but kcontrol has pretty much replaced it |
kb9vqf-offsite | I prefer to deactivate obsolete code |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite: no, no, I mean, there's the new interface "systemsettings", but there's the old interface "kcontrol" |
kb9vqf-offsite | then remove it in the next release |
kb9vqf-offsite | Ohhh |
kb9vqf-offsite | that piece of garbage |
Xu_R | yea... |
kb9vqf-offsite | well, some people like it :-/ |
Xu_R | :-/ |
kb9vqf-offsite | If it ain't broke..... |
Xu_R | the way I see it, you might as well integrate the two... |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite: don't fix it, right? |
kb9vqf-offsite | No, not really |
kb9vqf-offsite | I hate the systemsettings program |
kb9vqf-offsite | they have two different UI philosophies |
kb9vqf-offsite | systemsettings is more KDE4-ish |
kb9vqf-offsite | I'll leave it alone |
kb9vqf-offsite | but I'm not changing/enhancing/integrating it :) |
kb9vqf-offsite | kcontrol, on the other hand, I would be more than happy to enhance |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite: ah. I see. :P cause kde4 merged both of them; you can switch back and forth at will. |
kb9vqf-offsite | kde4 kcontrol is limited I thought |
*kb9vqf-offsite is not sure | |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite: they're merged :P |
kb9vqf-offsite | Honestly we don't have the manpower to support that kind of low prioriy enhancement |
kb9vqf-offsite | What is wrong with two binaries anyway? |
Xu_R | hehe. true true. |
kb9vqf-offsite | In my experience the merged program is a.) harder to enhance and b.) more prone to break |
kb9vqf-offsite | Unless there is a very good reason to merge them, don't |
Xu_R | ...you have too much experience. xD |
kb9vqf-offsite | ;-) |
Xu_R | ehehehe... |
Xu_R | is bug #412 related to trinity? |
tbottu | Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=412 min, P5, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, /usr/bin/displayconfig-restore: No such file or directory |
kb9vqf-offsite | Unfortunately yes |
kb9vqf-offsite | It's an Ubuntu packaging problem |
Xu_R | specific to ubuntu...? |
kb9vqf-offsite | that and probably Debian |
kb9vqf-offsite | since the Debian packaging is a modified copy of the Ubuntu packagig |
Xu_R | ok, bump priority (only a little bit though) |
kb9vqf-offsite | It's definitely not a critical problem |
Xu_R | i'm only bumping it to P3 |
kb9vqf-offsite | The displayconfig tool is written in Python, so it may not even work at this point |
kb9vqf-offsite | :) |
Xu_R | the rest stay the same. |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite: speaking of that, how's your inbox after my flood of bug closing/changing? :P |
kb9vqf-offsite | Full |
Xu_R | lol |
kb9vqf-offsite | Well, not really, as I have unlimited Email space, but still |
kb9vqf-offsite | Lots and lots of bug messages |
Xu_R | hehehe... |
kb9vqf-offsite | I like to see that though |
kb9vqf-offsite | Means things are getting done :) |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite: You know what we should do? Bugs of the week. |
kb9vqf-offsite | ? |
Xu_R | Pick two from *insert query here* and try to fix them every week :) |
kb9vqf-offsite | Hmm |
kb9vqf-offsite | Good idea |
kb9vqf-offsite | I can add them to the topic |
Xu_R | :D |
kb9vqf-offsite | Just a simple [BOTW #xxx] |
Xu_R | that would work. We just need to remember to change it, which *MIGHT* be a problem. |
kb9vqf-offsite | So, why not find the most irritating bug currently on the bugtracker and I'll throw it up there |
Xu_R | hmmm... |
Xu_R | I think we should start simple-ish |
kb9vqf-offsite | On the plus side, it looks like almost 1/2 the total bugs are closed on the bugtracker :) |
kb9vqf-offsite | Yes |
kb9vqf-offsite | A nice, irritating, simple bug |
Xu_R | let's start with 394 |
kb9vqf-offsite | How about the adblock icons? |
Xu_R | or that. |
kb9vqf-offsite | bug 394 |
tbottu | Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=394 maj, P1, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, Problems with DCOP After Using kdesu |
kb9vqf-offsite | Hmm |
kb9vqf-offsite | OK |
kb9vqf-offsite | Let's do 394 then |
kb9vqf-offsite | It isn't exactly simple |
kb9vqf-offsite | but I think samelian and I can figure out the root cause |
Xu_R | Awesome. :) Should I mark on the bug that this was Bug of the Week? or should we just keep it as is? |
kb9vqf-offsite | No, just leave the bug report alone for now |
*Xu_R keeps diving into details... sorry. lol. | |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite: ok :) |

kb9vqf-offsite | Xu_R: You will have to let everyone know about the bug-of-the-week concept :) |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite: already added to ietherpad :D |
Xu_R | and remember about that etherpad instance that you haz to set up soon :P hehehehe... (yes, I can be annoying xD) |
MutantTurkey | so tired D: |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: we setup the etherpad? |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: :( |
MutantTurkey | band practice from 12-8 |
MutantTurkey | my wrists are killing me |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: no, not yet |
Xu_R | eeek... I have to do that Tuesday :( |
Xu_R | except with orchestra. |
MutantTurkey | ok, well I'll be on tomorrow |
MutantTurkey | gotta sleep |
Xu_R | night Mutant.. |
Xu_R | too late. |
Piki | Xu_R, may need an account on the etherpad, my color changed. i'm relatively sure i was using the preselected color before (unless i made an accidental click in the color pallete). i don't really like the colors though, i have trouble seeing similar shades and colors, especially on LCDs :-( |
Xu_R | Piki: Yes, wait until the meeting. |
Xu_R | I will (provided kb9vqf-offsite has set up everything and added me as an admin for it) make and distribute accounts to everyone's emails. |
Piki | ok |
Xu_R | Also, we need to make sure stuff here is mirrored to the wiki weekly... that will be figured out at the meeting too. |
Piki | the irc logs? may be possible with a script for the bot, but if you're talking about the etherpad, dunno on that one |
Xu_R | no, etherpad |
Xu_R | logs are not a problem. |
Piki | yeah, not sure on that, probably need a plugin for either etherpad or the wiki |
Xu_R | or we'll just do manually. this is all discussed in the meeting... |
Xu_R | night allz |

Piki | MutantTurkey, good morning |
MutantTurkey | hey |
MutantTurkey | good evening i hope you mean |
Piki | MutantTurkey, it's night :-P i'm just saying "morning" because i thought you went to bed lol |
Piki | actually, i tend to say "good morning" when it's not actually morning, just to see people's reactions :-P |
MutantTurkey | Piki: I was meaning to |
MutantTurkey | :P |
MutantTurkey | where is kmail found in the svn tree? |
Piki | probably under kdepim |
MutantTurkey | k |
Piki | if not, perhaps applications, but check kdepim first, it's needed for korganizer, which is kdepim |

lente | hi there. First of all thanks for keeping KDE3 alive. I use Trinity for Debian Squeeze, but one thing annoys me. If I want to open a directory in konqueror there is a short animation befor opening. How can this be changed to instant opening, like in KDE3 for Debian Lenny? |
Xu_R | lente: Short animation...? Like the bouncing konqueror logo before it opens? |
lente | Xu_R: no. the directory seems to "fly" into out of the screen and becomes invisible. |
lente | -into |
Xu_R | lente: hmm... I don't have this problem :( |
lente | Xu_R: this doesnt happen if I use the browser in amarok |
lente | Xu_R: it is a nice feature. but I dont want it. |
Xu_R | lente: hmm... do you have desktop effects installed? |
lente | Xu_R: no, if you mean compiz. |
Xu_R | lente: check system settings - there might be more than compiz. |
lente | Xu_R: I installed Squeeze basic (just the basic system without anything else). Then I installed the "standart trinity package" desktop-base-trinity kde-trinity |
Xu_R | if not, please file a bug report at bugs.pearsoncomputing.net so that way we can get more information. |
lente | Sorry but I dont understand what you mean by saying: check system settings? |
Piki | i think he means kcontrol, i think there's a desktop effects section somewhere in it |
Piki | even if you don't have compiz |
lente | no |
lente | only lauchpad feedback. but with "no busy curser" and enable taskbar nodification is unchecked |
Piki | kcontrol -> Appearance & Themes -> Style -> Effects <--- was what i was thinking of, but it doesn't have what you're looking for, so i dunno |
lente | I have the same effect if I click on an applicationlauncher in the taskbar. |
Xu_R | lente: please file a bug report. we'll investigate further. :) |
Xu_R | be back in a bit |
lente | I just fpund out that it happens only if i use the detailed view in konqueror |
Xu_R | lente: narrows it down. :) as I said, into the bug report everything goes. we're starting to close bugs and make fixes now. |
lente | ok. thank you. |
Space_Man | lente: have a look at system settings > style > effects |
Space_Man | mine are all disabled |
lente | I deactived all. |
Piki | lente, find out what you can before you file the report. if you think of something later, you can always go back and add it to the report |
lente | ok. |
lente | thank you. |
lente | are there any files I have to send in to? |
Piki | i don't think so, but one of the devs will post a note to your report if you do |
Piki | though it may be helpful to get a screenshot of what's happening |
lente | ok I will add one. |
Piki | and add that to the report, along with a description of what it's showing, so the devs can understand better what's happening |
lente | k |

Xu_R | samelian: he's as kb9qvf-offsite |
samelian | i know :) |
Xu_R | samelian: Bug of the Week: #394 |
Xu_R | tbottu, bug 394 |
tbottu | Bug http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=394 maj, P1, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, Problems with DCOP After Using kdesu |
samelian | nope, I found a better bug :) |
samelian | which is an ugly crash, actually |
Xu_R | samelian: well, we thought, let's start simple :) |
samelian | hehe |
Xu_R | samelian: which one did you find? what bug? |
samelian | in kcontrol, you you click on Appearance -> Style, kcontrol is crashing |
samelian | if you* |
Xu_R | D: |
Xu_R | have a bug #? |
samelian | nope |
Xu_R | :( |
samelian | seems to be related to our qt3 patch |
Xu_R | uh oh... |
Xu_R | this may also be related to opensuse kde3... they imported our patch into their qt3. |
samelian | we have strange crashes on suse? |
Xu_R | samelian: related to kcontrol, yes,. |
samelian | aha |
Xu_R | ok, this is top priority now, because we're affecting openSUSE D: |
*cfaust has joined #trinity-desktop | |
samelian | yep |
samelian | I think out patch trigger an infinite recursivity, somehow |
Xu_R | samelian: ok, I sent a message saying that we may have a solution, and that tim should try to get on ASAP |
Xu_R | earlier fixed, better. |
samelian | yes, he made the patch and I guess he undestand better Qt's undergrounds |
Xu_R | yup. |
*Anixx-suse has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Anixx-suse | Hi |
Xu_R | hello |
Anixx-suse | I am Ilya |
Xu_R | thought so :) |
Anixx-suse | You said you know what the cause of the bug |
Xu_R | samelian thinks the qt3 patch that tim made is causing kcontrol to crash... |
Xu_R | because it's crashing on Trinity too now. |
Anixx-suse | interesting |
Xu_R | [15:30] <samelian> seems to be related to our qt3 patch |
Anixx-suse | The same patch does not cause the crash on 11.3 |
Anixx-suse | only on 11.4 |
Anixx-suse | I can try to rebuild qt3 without the patch and see. |
Xu_R | I thought so too, but samelian might be on to something. :-\ |
Xu_R | Anixx-suse: you could try that. |
Anixx-suse | but still it seems the crash happens when zlib is called |
Xu_R | D: hmm... two possibilities for the crash :( |
Xu_R | when tim gets on, we may be able to rule out the patch if that is not the case. |
Anixx-suse | rebuilding all with new variant of qt3 takes weeks |
Anixx-suse | tens of thousands of packages |
Xu_R | Anixx-suse: then it's safer to check zlib for a cause. |
Anixx-suse | I will check qt3 |
samelian | mybe out patch are ok, but kcontrol is ungrateful :) |
samelian | our* |
Anixx-suse | did not you test this patch before? |
Anixx-suse | did it begin to cause the crash only now? |
Xu_R | we've been using the qt3 patch for some time, so i'm surprised if it has something to do with it though :-\ |
samelian | sometimes we have unexpected situations |
samelian | I found some of them, so far |
Anixx-suse | okay. i'll remove the patch untill it is tested well |
Anixx-suse | i thought is is already tested for some time and does not affect much |
Xu_R | Anixx-suse: technically, it shouldn't. D: |
samelian | trinity is really big |
Anixx-suse | now the qt3 without the patch is being built |
samelian | Anixx-suse: tell me if kcontrol still crashing without patch |
Anixx-suse | i saw it - there was about a few lines of code, some new methods... I thought it is for Trinity interface only. |
samelian | yes, this was intention |
samelian | but seems that have some side effects |
Anixx-suse | i have seen Debian devs cited modifications to qt3 and binary incompatibility as a reason why Trinity will not be accepted to Debian |
Xu_R | Anixx-suse: yes, that's true. :-\ |
samelian | we (or at least, I) do not care about Debian devs :) |
Xu_R | but their reason is always important. |
samelian | our too |
Anixx-suse | on the other hand the suse devs said that they will not accept vanilla KDE3 but if Trinity is packaged it could be accepted |
Anixx-suse | because the upstream is alive |
Xu_R | conflict of interest lol |
samelian | we don't change Qt for our pleasure, have a reason :) |
Anixx-suse | have you figured out why the crash happens? is there a fixed version of trinity-qt3? |
samelian | not yet, I wait for Tim opinion |
samelian | seems a infinite recursivity |
samelian | Anixx-suse: you tried kcontrol with unpatched qt? |
samelian | without* |
samelian | hmm, double negation :) |
Anixx-suse | but the crash in kcontrol seems to be either because of zlib or because a null-pointer is tranferred to zlib instead of the path to the icon file name |
Anixx-suse | the latter is the most likely |
samelian | depend which module crashing |
samelian | for me, crashing in appearance -> style |
Anixx-suse | actual crash is due to the null pointer where a pointer to a string is expected |
samelian | Anixx-suse: you have a trace? |
Anixx-suse | for us in icon |
Anixx-suse | in icons |
Anixx-suse | depending on icon theme |
samelian | maybe is another issue |
samelian | pls try to give me a trace |
Anixx-suse | yes |
Anixx-suse | https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=679345 |
Anixx-suse | see this bugreport: |
Anixx-suse | qt3 is ready |
Anixx-suse | will test now |
Anixx-suse | and we use KDE3.5.10, not Trinity. Can this patch cause crashes in the vanilla KDE3 without tqinterface? |
samelian | Anixx-suse: actually i'm not sure that gdb trace is very accurate |
samelian | you should use kde crash handler trace |
Anixx-suse | it is there |
Anixx-suse | actually openSUSE includes qt3 3.3.8b They did not push the change to the official repo |
Anixx-suse | I will re-login. have to reboot |
*Anixx-suse has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Anixx-suse | just tries with vanilla qt3 |
samelian | and? |
Anixx-suse | all the same. crash is there |
samelian | aha |
samelian | i see there this code: gzFile svgz = gzopen(path.latin1(), "ro"); |
Anixx-suse | yes |
samelian | I think that latin1() can return NULL sometimes |
Anixx-suse | what is better? |
samelian | if think that we can check of path is empty |
Anixx-suse | what the function is it? |
samelian | if(path.empty()) return false; |
samelian | bool KSVGIconEngine::load(int width, int height, const TQString &path) |
samelian | isEmpty(), actually |
samelian | or better |
Anixx-suse | add 1 line? |
samelian | if(path.isNull()) return false; |
samelian | yes |
Anixx-suse | why this returns null? |
samelian | bool KSVGIconEngine::load(int width, int height, const TQString &path) |
samelian | { |
samelian | if(path.isNull()) return false; |
Anixx-suse | if on 11.3 it does not |
samelian | i'm not sure, we should dig deeper |
samelian | first of all, why KSVGIconEngine::load() receiving an empty path |
*si-m1 has left #trinity-desktop | |
Anixx-suse | that is the question) |
samelian | maybe is an external cause |
samelian | try to fix it as I said |
samelian | and tell me if works |
samelian | meantime, I will investigate deeper |
samelian | Anixx-suse: this is origin of problem: |
samelian | icon=icontheme.iconPath("exec.svg", size, KIcon::MatchBest); |
samelian | if(engine.load(size, size, icon.path)) |
samelian | check if "exec.svg" really exists |
samelian | actually, check for exec.png too |
Anixx-suse | exec.svg? |
samelian | yes |
samelian | exec.svg is searched only if exec.png is not found before |
Anixx-suse | should this be in any icon theme? |
Anixx-suse | the themes did not change from 11.3 to 11.4 |
samelian | i have no ideea, I think is not, this is reason for crash |
samelian | check for exec.png, on both distros |
samelian | this chunk of code seems the origin of problem: |
samelian | KIcon icon=icontheme.iconPath("exec.png", size, KIcon::MatchBest); |
samelian | if (!icon.isValid()) { |
samelian | #ifdef HAVE_LIBART |
samelian | icon=icontheme.iconPath("exec.svg", size, KIcon::MatchBest); |
samelian | if(engine.load(size, size, icon.path)) |
Anixx-suse | there is such file in Nue icon theme |
samelian | you have libart support on both distros? |
*K`zan has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Anixx-suse | ah the problem is with libart? |
samelian | sort of |
samelian | not in libart itself, but triggered by libart support |
Anixx-suse | seems the name of the library changed from 11.3 to 11.4 |
Anixx-suse | from libart_lgpl to libart_lgpl_2-2 |
samelian | in any case, the crashing shouldn't occur |
Anixx-suse | maybe you make a patch for Trinity and share it with us? |
samelian | there we have a sum of unfortunate coincidences :) |
Anixx-suse | meanwhile I will try to hotfix the library name |
samelian | Anixx-suse: actually I'm no sure that I can reproduce the problem |
samelian | I will try to delete exec.png |
Anixx-suse | what if you remove libart library? |
Anixx-suse | though.. it seems the code executed when libart is defined so when configure found it |
samelian | I think that the error will vanish quietly |
samelian | yes |
Anixx-suse | if no libart this code should be inaccessible |
samelian | as I said, a sum of coincidences :) |
Anixx-suse | so... what to do? remove libart? |
samelian | I suggest to make a patch |
samelian | bool KSVGIconEngine::load(int width, int height, const TQString &path) |
samelian | { |
samelian | if(path.isNull()) return false; |
Anixx-suse | can you try& and I will patch the package and quickly test it |
Anixx-suse | if path is null it should use pmg file |
Anixx-suse | not svg |
Anixx-suse | ]and not just return |
samelian | not exactly |
samelian | there is svg handler |
samelian | if svg is tried to be used, meaning that png was not found |
samelian | KIcon icon=icontheme.iconPath("exec.png", size, KIcon::MatchBest); |
samelian | if (!icon.isValid()) { |
samelian | #ifdef HAVE_LIBART |
samelian | icon=icontheme.iconPath("exec.svg", size, KIcon::MatchBest); |
samelian | if(engine.load(size, size, icon.path)) |
samelian | see? |
samelian | first checking for png |
samelian | is png is not valid, is tried svg |
samelian | unfortunately we have no svg as well |
samelian | and crashing occur |
Anixx-suse | i see |
Anixx-suse | and without libart it just returns |
samelian | yes |
Anixx-suse | and with libart it assumes the file is there anyway |
samelian | yes, bad ideea :) |
Anixx-suse | ok |
Anixx-suse | can you make a patch quickly? I have no sources at the moment |
samelian | hmm, I have only current svn tree |
Anixx-suse | and I will test it |
samelian | you want a current trinity patch? |
Anixx-suse | is it different from vanilla kde3? |
samelian | more or less |
samelian | hang on |
Anixx-suse | ok |
Anixx-suse | i'll try to patch it |
samelian | Anixx-suse: |
samelian | http://paste.lug.ro/131050 |
samelian | you should adapt it a little, I think |
samelian | QString instead TQString, etc |
Anixx-suse | thanks |
samelian | welcome |
samelian | tell me if is ok |
aalecs | pam-pam |
Anixx-suse | yes |
aalecs | salut serghei :D |
samelian | salut alex |
Anixx-suse | btw do you change any line of code in Trinity in such a way? |
Anixx-suse | qt->tqt etc |
aalecs | samelian: tqt ? |
samelian | Anixx-suse: sorry, i did not understand |
Anixx-suse | QString instead of TQString etc |
samelian | trinity using TQString, yes |
samelian | you don't need it |
Anixx-suse | other way around, TQString instead of QTString, TQFile instead of QFile |
samelian | yes |
samelian | all tqt claseses beginning with TQ |
Anixx-suse | is there an automated script that does all these substitutions? |
samelian | yes |
aalecs | ah acu mam prins |
samelian | hehe |
aalecs | credeam ca se refera la functii qt, care alea nu pot fi redenumite |
samelian | nu, tqt e altceva |
samelian | e un wrapper peste qt3 |
Anixx-suse | ooh i do not understand spanish/ let me speak russian instead ) |
aalecs | Anixx-suse: is romanian :D |
samelian | hehe, it's Romanian actually |
Anixx-suse | looks like spanish |
samelian | yes, it's latin tongue |
aalecs | Anixx-suse: while you're russian, did you try altlinux ? |
Anixx-suse | no |
Xu_R | samelian: you speak too many languages. lol. |
samelian | haha |
aalecs | lool |
aalecs | :)) |
samelian | romanian, C++, russian, a little english, cmake etc :) |
aalecs | Anixx-suse: try it, you'll like it |
Xu_R | :P |
Anixx-suse | alt linux includes trinity now |
aalecs | yes, includes |
aalecs | we have some problems with the latest gcc, but we're on the way fixing them :D |
aalecs | glibc* |
Anixx-suse | are you an alt linux developer? |
aalecs | Anixx-suse: i maintain some packages , play with bugs |
aalecs | stuff like this |
aalecs | and work on my own distro installer etc |
Anixx-suse | what did you do with kaffeine and ktorrent? it seems that you had to downgrade them with transition to trinity? |
samelian | I will update it when I will port it to cmake |
aalecs | we have kaffeine 0.8 and kafine for kde 4 |
aalecs | different things |
aalecs | and same with ktorrent |
Anixx-suse | i meant in the final KDE3.5.10 kaffeine is of higher version than that in Trinity |
Anixx-suse | How Alt Linux handle it? Do they keep these programs from KDE3? |
aalecs | well, i don`t know exactly what happend because i am not the packager for alt. i should have been, but someone take over. i have right on the building of trinity, but for the moment dont have time; i will soon build 3.5.13 for alt |
aalecs | hoping also the glibc will be fixed quick |
aalecs | and regarding versions... don`t know what happend, we have kaffeine 0.8.8 |
aalecs | and ktorrent 2.2.8 |
Anixx-suse | samelian: by the way, several days ago in opensuse-kde3 list one one guy said that you made some patches to knetworkmanager so that it works with NM 0.8 |
samelian | actually I guess we have already a patch for newer NMs |
Anixx-suse | samelian: he made a link to Gentoo repo but it turned out that it has a very old version (0.2 or so) |
samelian | hmm, the Gentoo patch I think is made be me :) |
Anixx-suse | samelian: is there a link to the patch? |
aalecs | samelian: what kaffeine ver is in trinity ? |
samelian | have no idee, I do not use kaffeine |
aalecs | neither do i |
aalecs | :)) |
Anixx-suse | aalecs: 0.8.6 |
samelian | Anixx-suse: this? http://git.overlays.gentoo.org/gitweb/?p=proj/kde-sunset.git;a=blob;f=kde-misc/knetworkmanager/files/knetworkmanager-0.7-uuid_fix.patch;h=e71ec5e716c6e160740235cb000205be96fc2e11;hb=388e2ee4eff2d76363cef2a357125ef572bcbfd9 |
aalecs | Anixx-suse: we got 0.8.8 |
aalecs | so we used the 3.5.10 ver |
Anixx-suse | samelian: thank you very much |
samelian | for what? :) |
Anixx-suse | by the way do you plan to add more software to Trinity? |
aalecs | yeah, i want to try porting baghira |
aalecs | and ksquirrel |
aalecs | oh ksq is already there |
aalecs | hm, i got to build it for alt |
Anixx-suse | ksquirrel has a security flaw |
Anixx-suse | not closed |
samelian | more software to trinity will increase pressure against us |
Anixx-suse | buffer overflow - known security bug discovered by IBM |
aalecs | hm, this i did not know. i used it 1year ago |
Anixx-suse | In OpenSUSE Build Service even does not pass the post-build-checks |
aalecs | samelian: pressure from the original kde ? |
samelian | from users :) |
samelian | we are only two "real" developers :) |
aalecs | why against ? maybe they will help :D |
Anixx-suse | samelian: Robert made a comparison with OpenSUSE KDE3 repository and got a huge list |
samelian | hehe, we already busy with core kde problems |
Anixx-suse | samelian: not the list is even greater |
samelian | after cmake, the first priority is to drop hal support |
Anixx-suse | ok |
aalecs | and use udev :D |
samelian | yep |
samelian | udev + dbus |
aalecs | good |
aalecs | without gvfs i hope :D |
samelian | udisks/upower, etc |
Anixx-suse | these are very great endevours |
aalecs | i see lately a lot of apps go to gvfs |
samelian | what is gvfs? |
samelian | a sort of kioslaves? |
Anixx-suse | do you plan to include say, kvim, valknut, kbibtex? |
aalecs | vfs to access different hardware, sticks, cds, etc |
samelian | aha, so kioslaves :) |
aalecs | Anixx-suse: valknut = eiskalt |
aalecs | :D |
aalecs | samelian: yes |
Anixx-suse | aalecs: eiskat is only availabe for qt4 |
aalecs | samelian: but gvfs has a sucking support of smb for example |
samelian | i need to rewrite kio_sftp, kio_fish and kio_imap4 |
aalecs | Anixx-suse: correct, but samelian wants to port kde3 to qt4 |
aalecs | :) |
samelian | Tim, actually |
samelian | I do not care to much about qt4 |
Anixx-suse | anything written for qt4 requires regular updates |
Anixx-suse | because it changes quickly |
samelian | yes, for this reason Tim started TQt |
samelian | to insulate trinity against long term qt changes |
aalecs | well, then he should not change to qt4 |
samelian | we don't |
Anixx-suse | so what software do you usually accept? |
Xu_R | Anixx-suse: trinity on qt4: http://www.trinitydesktop.org/wiki/bin/view/Developers/TQtForQt4 |
Xu_R | Anixx-suse: and a screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/tzv9z.png |
samelian | i'm not sure yet about what software we will accept |
samelian | the policy is not yet stated |
samelian | I think that Tim will reject apps which cannot be compiled against tqt |
Anixx-suse | Xu_R: screenshot is interesting but with a\n Oxygen theme would be more specific )) |
*MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop | |
aalecs | another guy obsessed by oxygen |
aalecs | :D |
aalecs | like me |
Anixx-suse | Xu_R: Plastik is difficult to distinguish from Plastique |
Xu_R | Anixx-suse: ah, true. but I think the theming part is harder to do (it's very different on Qt4 than Qt3, according to tim) |
aalecs | i have it on gtk (running xfce for the moment) |
Anixx-suse | Xu_R: so this is a Qt3 style? |
Xu_R | Anixx-suse: yes, that was Plastik on Qt4... (don't know what he did, just he mentioned it being significantly harder) |
Xu_R | hi MutantTurkey :D |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: hey what's up? |
samelian | Anixx-suse: ping me if svg problem was solved, if yes, I will commit it to SVN as well |
Anixx-suse | aalecs: if you are going to make some packages for Alt I suggest you to have a look at openSUSE KDE3 repository. Maybe you could find some software which would benefit Alt users |
Anixx-suse | samelian: ok |
aalecs | Anixx-suse: noted, will do |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: discussion around here :) |
aalecs | Anixx-suse: you tested alt ? |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: with opensuse? |
Anixx-suse | aalecs: no |
Anixx-suse | aalecs: but I thin it is a good distro |
samelian | Xu_R just watching, with closed mouth :) |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: the etherpad was down earlier D: |
aalecs | Anixx-suse: try, you might like :D |
Xu_R | samelian: :P i try not to disturb patching and bugfixing |
samelian | haha |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: I know. It's back up again :) |
MutantTurkey | not acceptable. we definitely need to get our own |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: I have download backup copies again just in case. |
samelian | we working like Dr. House's team :) |
MutantTurkey | good. |
samelian | working and chatting at same time :) |
MutantTurkey | "it must be a rare south american liver disease contracted only while flying above the amazon wearing ski goggles" |
Xu_R | well, two person Dr. House's team atm. xD just you and ilya, but then wait until tim gets here XD |
MutantTurkey | that is house |
MutantTurkey | where is tim? haven't seen him all day |
Xu_R | i don't know :( probably having his desktop problem still. |
MutantTurkey | samelian: on the issue of kpovmodeler, I have recompiled tqtinterface so that isn't the problem, I don't know what it is. same output still: http://ix.io/1xw |
*cfaust has joined #trinity-desktop | |
aalecs | let him who have understanding... 666 |
samelian | MutantTurkey: you update your tqt svn tree? |
MutantTurkey | samelian: yes i freshly built from svn |
samelian | check if you have TQDIALOG_OBJECT_NAME_STRING in tqt.h |
Xu_R | Anixx-suse: i'm guessing problem solved? or not? :-\ |
MutantTurkey | samelian: ok |
aalecs | guys |
MutantTurkey | yah/ |
aalecs | wanna see smth nice ? |
MutantTurkey | ? |
aalecs | http://alpinet.org/main/foto/showfoto_ro_t_cand-stelele-aluneca-pe-cer_item_104552_vot_0_position_1.html |
aalecs | falling stars |
MutantTurkey | very nice. where is that? |
Anixx-suse | Xu_R: We wwill test it |
aalecs | MutantTurkey: in romanian mountains |
MutantTurkey | samelian: okay have it. weird |
MutantTurkey | aalecs: beautiful. I wish to go to europe soon |
aalecs | come visit :D |
Xu_R | Anixx-suse: ok :) |
MutantTurkey | I would like to |
MutantTurkey | I may have the opportunity to spend 6-10 months there in the spring |
samelian | hehe, Romania is pretty ugly country, actually |
Piki | MutantTurkey, don't know if you've seen, but Ark's going to be at fosscon |
Piki | still waiting if anybody can join me, but if so, we may be able to spare someone to go back and forth between us and the trinity booth |
MutantTurkey | Piki: yes i saw. |
MutantTurkey | Maybe i could just join you. |
MutantTurkey | If anyone has questions about trinity i can answer them |
MutantTurkey | I have talked to tim about it. if we have a stable release by june we are gonna get a trinity table |
MutantTurkey | who's idea for the etherpad was it? I love it. |
MutantTurkey | this project is 10000 times better now. |
Xu_R | :P |
MutantTurkey | because we actually are addressing all the problems, things written down are not so easily forgotten |
Xu_R | yea, that's my idea. and btw, I think I might have a way to automate the mirroring of everything on etherpad to a server - still have to check a bit further though |
MutantTurkey | ok. |
MutantTurkey | I mean it is good if we could get out own then we are fine |
Xu_R | as I said, we have to wait for tim. he said he'd have one by wednesday so I could migrate for the meeting, but... who knows. |
MutantTurkey | that is at 9pm? cool |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: um, no, still at 7pm. |
*kb9vqf-offsite has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Piki | i like etherpad, the only thing i don't like is the color thing, my eyes have trouble with similar colors and shades, and LCDs make that harder |
MutantTurkey | yes. |
MutantTurkey | those colors are crappy. |
Xu_R | welcome kb9vqf-offsite: we were wondering where you were. lol. |
kb9vqf-offsite | Hi guys |
kb9vqf-offsite | not much time ATM :) |
MutantTurkey | no reason to have chat either |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf-offsite: that is fine. |
kb9vqf-offsite | Busy getting my workstation online; only have a minute or so |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite: noticed. I think samelian and Anixx-suse (Ilya) might have fixed the problem, but it's still unresolved. |
kb9vqf-offsite | Just wanted to ask samelian to look into why kdm does not generate the Xaccess file in kdebase |
kb9vqf-offsite | samelian: I think CMake needs to run these lines from the original Automake system: |
kb9vqf-offsite | $(srcdir)/config.def $(srcdir)/confproc.pl $(PERL) -w $(srcdir)/confproc.pl $(srcdir)/config.def $@ |
Piki | MutantTurkey, if tde is stable, it should have a table at fosscon, it needs as much attention as ark |
samelian | kb9vqf-offsite: ok, I will check |
kb9vqf-offsite | Thanks |
MutantTurkey | yes. we talked it all over. see logs |
Piki | we can point each other out anyway |
kb9vqf-offsite | Basically Xaccess is not being generated |
MutantTurkey | yes quite. |
samelian | kb9vqf-offsite: I think we have a problem with patch for qt |
kb9vqf-offsite | Xu_R: If you guys think you have a fix for the zlib crash then please post it to the list |
kb9vqf-offsite | I'd like to look at it :) |
samelian | was not zlib crash, actually |
samelian | at least, is not gzip fault |
kb9vqf-offsite | samelian: What is wrong with the Qt patch? |
kb9vqf-offsite | OK |
samelian | hang on |
*kb9vqf-offsite notes that his workstation should be fully up tomorrow....59% on the RAID rebuild | |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf-offsite: good luck |
kb9vqf-offsite | thanks :) |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite: same, good luck :) |
kb9vqf-offsite | I'll be able to help more at that point |
kb9vqf-offsite | Also, the more people we have helping with CMake the better |
kb9vqf-offsite | There is a bit of mutiny coming from Darrell lately :-( |
kb9vqf-offsite | Personally I am fed up with Automake |
samelian | kb9vqf-offsite: we have this chunk of core, which seems to run in an infinite recursivity |
samelian | http://paste.lug.ro/131051 |
kb9vqf-offsite | I don't want to see another #!$% Makefile.am bug, crash, or screwup |
kb9vqf-offsite | OK |
kb9vqf-offsite | I must have missed that |
kb9vqf-offsite | Hang on.... |
kb9vqf-offsite | See note 11 here: http://www.trinitydesktop.org/wiki/bin/view/Developers/TQtForQt4 |
kb9vqf-offsite | samelian: ^^^^^^ |
kb9vqf-offsite | That is the reason for the infinite loop |
Piki | kb9vqf-offsite, i'll start working on cmake for applications, most people expect several of those to be included in a kde3 distro and would therefor expect a tde distro to include them. i'll also try to help with some of the non-apps |
samelian | yes, for this reason I suspect that crashing is related somehow to qt3 patch |
kb9vqf-offsite | Piki: Sounds great! |
Piki | or rather, some of the main stuff outside of apps |
kb9vqf-offsite | samelian: It is related to the change from a pointer based object list to an object based object list |
Piki | will wait until the hard disk arrives |
kb9vqf-offsite | The object is not being updated |
samelian | kb9vqf-offsite: you can fix it? I do not understand very well this code |
Piki | i'm ordering on thursday when i get paid |
kb9vqf-offsite | I think so |
kb9vqf-offsite | Hang on |
kb9vqf-offsite | samelian: Do you know which line it hangs on? |
samelian | wait, I will give you backtrace |
kb9vqf-offsite | OK |
*field_it has joined #trinity-desktop | |
*kb9vqf-offsite thinks it might actually be a recursive failure | |
samelian | kb9vqf-offsite: http://paste.lug.ro/131052 |
kb9vqf-offsite | hmmm |
*kb9vqf-offsite goes to check | |
kb9vqf-offsite | samelian: Looks like you might be right |
kb9vqf-offsite | It is a problem in the patch IIRC |
kb9vqf-offsite | Let me throw up a pastebin with the fix |
samelian | ok |
kb9vqf-offsite | You will need to fix it into the proper .diff format :) |
*kb9vqf-offsite does not have most of his tools available from his laptop | |
samelian | no problem |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite: new Qt3 patch? |
kb9vqf-offsite | Probably |
kb9vqf-offsite | Hang on |
Xu_R | ok. |
kb9vqf-offsite | samelian will have to give you the real one ;-) |
kb9vqf-offsite | I'm just going to indicate what needs to be fixed |
Anixx-suse | if there is a new patch, please sr it to KDE:KDE3, robert |
Xu_R | Anixx-suse: got it. |
Anixx-suse | and please include also the proper version reportiung there |
Anixx-suse | from the patch which was in the list |
Xu_R | Anixx-suse: in the sr request? saying that new Qt3 patch? |
Anixx-suse | Xu_R: in the new Qt3 patch |
kb9vqf-offsite | samelian: Do you have the original patchfile that was used to create your version of the patched Qt3 libraries? |
kb9vqf-offsite | I ask because it looks like everything is guarded properly in the version that is on the Wiki |
samelian | hang on |
Anixx-suse | Xu_R: the patch by Darrell Anderson |
samelian | kb9vqf-offsite: http://paste.lug.ro/131053 |
kb9vqf-offsite | samelian: That patch is outdated |
Xu_R | Anixx-suse: I'm confused. You want me to sr the new patch that samelian will make, elevate the version in the Qt3 spec file, but then what? |
kb9vqf-offsite | That's why it crashed! |
samelian | i see :) |
samelian | nice |
samelian | I will rebuild qt3 |
kb9vqf-offsite | You must have grabbed a VERY early version :-P |
kb9vqf-offsite | Use the patch here: http://www.trinitydesktop.org/wiki/bin/view/Developers/Qt3 |
samelian | for sure, we need to version it somehow |
kb9vqf-offsite | Hehe |
samelian | I didn't noticed that was changed |
Anixx-suse | Xu_R: no, Darrel made a correction to the Qt patch so that Qt reports its version properly |
kb9vqf-offsite | samelian: That broken version was a mistake |
kb9vqf-offsite | It was only on the Wiki for a day or so |
Anixx-suse | Xu_R: as 3.3.8c |
kb9vqf-offsite | I removed it as soon as I realized the wrong file was posted |
samelian | hehe, i was lucky to grab buggy patch :) |
kb9vqf-offsite | Yep |
Xu_R | Anixx-suse: oh, ok. let me search for it... |
kb9vqf-offsite | Sorry |
kb9vqf-offsite | Now I wonder who else hase the broken patch |
kb9vqf-offsite | Maybe SuSE does as well |
*kb9vqf-offsite does not know | |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite: then how come it affects SuSE as well? I sent the new patch to them, (It's the same) and it's still broken... |
kb9vqf-offsite | Same backtrace? |
Xu_R | kb9vqf-offsite: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=679345 |
samelian | the suse problem is not related to my bug |
Xu_R | oh. |
samelian | is a bug in kdecore |
*Xu_R is a bit confused lol | |
Xu_R | don't mind me :P |
samelian | i made a patch for ilya |
kb9vqf-offsite | Xu_R: That bug is completely different |
Anixx-suse | kb9vqf-offsite: so the crash is because of incorrect version reported? |
kb9vqf-offsite | like samelian says :) |
kb9vqf-offsite | Anixx-suse: I don't know, I think samelian worked on the fix |
kb9vqf-offsite | We are discussing two different crashes here ATM |
samelian | Anixx-suse: your bug is not related to mine |
kb9vqf-offsite | One was due to samelian grabbing a buggy Qt patch |
Anixx-suse | samelian: yes |
kb9vqf-offsite | The other I have not even looked at |
Anixx-suse | samelian: but now I am talking about incorrect version reporting by the patched Qt3 |
kb9vqf-offsite | Ohhh |
kb9vqf-offsite | Well, we do need to fix that |
Anixx-suse | samelian: a fixing patch was made by Darrell |
kb9vqf-offsite | samelian: Can you regenerate the patch file to bump the Qt version |
kb9vqf-offsite | Or add it to the Wiki then? |
samelian | sure |
kb9vqf-offsite | It might be a good idea to just add it to the patch file here http://www.trinitydesktop.org/wiki/bin/view/Developers/Qt3 |

Anixx-suse | hmm it says Only garbage was found in the patch input. |
samelian | Anixx-suse: where is Darrel's patch? |
Anixx-suse | what should I do? |
Anixx-suse | samelian: I thought it is. He talked about it on the mailing list |
samelian | aha |
samelian | ok, I found the place for VERSION |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R|Away: you don't need to set |Away and frankly i find it annoying :p |
Anixx-suse | samelian: sergey, I cannot use your patch: it says it cantains only garbage |
samelian | for sure, I was made it from svn sources |
samelian | I think you must to adapt lines |
Anixx-suse | samelian: I did |
Anixx-suse | samelian: but it says not that hunks failed |
samelian | strange |
Anixx-suse | samelian: it just does not recognize it as a patch |
samelian | hang on, I will try to made a patch for kde 3.5.10 |
Anixx-suse | samelian: i can myself... |
Anixx-suse | samelian: but what option should I use with the diff? |
Anixx-suse | samelian: diff -u? |
samelian | diff -u -r |
samelian | against kdelibs |
Anixx-suse | samelian: i forgot... and now already a hour is searching internet |
samelian | hehe, next time just ask :) |
Anixx-suse | samelian: thanks |
samelian | welcom |
Anixx-suse | samelian: wait it does not create the line with Index |
Anixx-suse | samelian: what should I do to have it? |
Anixx-suse | samelian: i did so about a week ago |
samelian | i'm not sure, I think that patch will understand it anyway |
Anixx-suse | samelian: but cannot recall |
Anixx-suse | samelian: i'll try... |
samelian | ok |
Anixx-suse | samelian: by the way, the patch for Qt3 did not work in OBS last time |
samelian | which one? |
Anixx-suse | samelian: Robert had to upload an already patched tarbal |
Anixx-suse | samelian: for Qt3 |
Anixx-suse | samelian: the patch program in OBS also said it is incorrect |
Anixx-suse | we tried to patch qt3 3.3.8b with your patch |
samelian | you have it already? :) |
samelian | I just sent it to Tim |
Anixx-suse | samelian: the new patch |
Anixx-suse | samelian: last time we applied the previous patch |
samelian | I'm not sure that is mine |
samelian | hang on |
Anixx-suse | not yours, but from trinity wiki |
samelian | I created another one, but seems that I have no rights to upload it to wiki |
samelian | hang om |
Anixx-suse | samelian: patch program in suse is especially strict: something you can patch on 11.3 you can't on 11.4 |
Anixx-suse | samelian: again failed |
Anixx-suse | samelian: although I made the diff by hand |
samelian | show me the error |
Anixx-suse | samelian: by the diff programm |
Anixx-suse | samelian: impossible |

MutantTurkey | but it doesn't find it. |
MutantTurkey | don't know why it doesnt |
samelian | show me CMakeError.log |

samelian | but i'm not sure if is important |
Anixx-suse | samelian: how to make with that header? |
samelian | is created automatically by diff |
Anixx-suse | samelian: no |
samelian | you create the patch by hand? |
Anixx-suse | samelian: by diff command |
Anixx-suse | samelian: diff -u-r |
Anixx-suse | samelian: oh seems now wors. instead of copy-pasting diff output from console, I redirected it to the file |
samelian | wait, you run diff inside kdelibs? |
Anixx-suse | samelian: no. i just add the paths later |
Anixx-suse | samelian: seems this time worked |
samelian | aha |
Anixx-suse | samelian: may be because of missing or extra line in the end of the file |

*Baho has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Anixx-suse | samelian: we added qt3 patch from Trinity to our KDE3 so that the both were binary-compatibe and Trinity not to require a separate Qt3 |
Anixx-suse | samelian: I hope the patch from Trinity will be compatible with conventional KDE? |
samelian | as far I know, this patch to no broke backward compatibility |
samelian | but to be sure, ask Tim, he knows better |
Anixx-suse | samelian: there is one small program which I did not package yet. it seems it will be easier to include it in trinity because there are no specs etc |
Anixx-suse | samelian: just a source tarball |
Anixx-suse | samelian: it's snmpbrowser |
samelian | I will look for it |
samelian | you have a link? |

samelian | yes, I found it on sf.net |
Anixx-suse | samelian: just uploaded to an archive |
samelian | I will commit it to svn when I will make a cmake for it |
Anixx-suse | ok. if it cannot be buit, just forget |

Anixx-suse | but does not load the icons either |
samelian | i see |
Anixx-suse | when choosing a theme which had problems previously |
samelian | seems that png icons are not found |
Anixx-suse | it just shows the icons from the previous selected theme |
samelian | this not happens on older distro? |
Anixx-suse | thus if i select Crystal-SUSE after DarkGlass, it shows Crystal-SUSE previews as DarkGlass |
Anixx-suse | no |
Anixx-suse | in 11.3 worked well |
Anixx-suse | showed all these icons |
samelian | this happens as root as well? |
Anixx-suse | yes |
Anixx-suse | possibly it cannot find the icon files? |
samelian | maybe, or index.theme |
Anixx-suse | hmm |
samelian | on new distro themes are installed in exactly same way like on old one? |
Anixx-suse | yes |
Anixx-suse | the problem is not only with system-wide themes |
Anixx-suse | but also with some of those which included in KDE, i.e. installed in /opt/kde3 |
samelian | try to run kbuildsycoca |
Anixx-suse | does not change anything |
samelian | the problem happens only on kcontrol? or you have no icons if you choose DarkGlass? |
Anixx-suse | With DarkGlass there is no problem at all |
Anixx-suse | as well as KDE Classic and Crystal SVG |
samelian | it happend only with Crystal-SUSE? |
Anixx-suse | The problem is with Crystal SUSE, for example. |
Anixx-suse | samelian: no |
samelian | but? |
Anixx-suse | samelian: also with all Gnome themes |
Anixx-suse | samelian: such as blucurve |
Anixx-suse | samelian: with KDE4 themes (Oxygen) |
Anixx-suse | samelian: With Oxygen-kde3 there was no problem |
samelian | hmm, something are different on there themes |
samelian | these* |
Anixx-suse | samelian: with dropline-neu |
samelian | pls give me an arhive with Crystal-SUSE |
samelian | I will try to reproduce the bug |
Anixx-suse | samelian: with high contrast also |
Anixx-suse | samelian: now some of the themes which previously led to crash |
Anixx-suse | samelian: show normal previes |
samelian | interesting |
Anixx-suse | samelian: and not distinguishable from those which were ok always |
Anixx-suse | samelian: but 3 of the themes now do not show their previews: High Contrast, High Contrast Inverse and Crystal SUSE |
Anixx-suse | samelian: some themes show one icon OK but other two (of the three on the preview) is not shown |
Anixx-suse | samelian: i.e. shown from a previously selected theme |
samelian | kcontrol module looking for exec.png, folder.png and txt.png |
samelian | check if problematic sets of icons have these files |
Anixx-suse | samelian: only a very small part of the themes heve |
Anixx-suse | samelian: previously the icons in such case would be shown from the default theme (Crystal SVG) |
Anixx-suse | samelian: themes inherit each other. |
Anixx-suse | samelian: which theme inherits a theme in written in its config file |
samelian | actually I think that when kcontrol do not found an icon, leave untouched previous icon |
Anixx-suse | samelian: so it does now |
Anixx-suse | samelian: but on 11.3 it showed an icon from the default theme |
Anixx-suse | samelian: i.e. Crystal SVG |
samelian | maybe because config for icons set was written well? |
*cfaust has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Anixx-suse | samelian: it did not change |
samelian | i need one archive with a problematic theme, to check if it happens on my machine |
Anixx-suse | samelian: ok |
Anixx-suse | samelian: wait |
Anixx-suse | http://arxiv.hotbox.ru/misc/crystalsuse.tar.gz |
Anixx-suse | samelian: now after your patch it can be choosen and actually works |
samelian | hehe |
Anixx-suse | samelian: only previews in kcontrol do not |
*scrat has joined #trinity-desktop | |
samelian | yes, is happens on my machine too |
samelian | this is good |
samelian | I will be able to fix it |
Anixx-suse | samelian: crash? |
samelian | no, just not showing preview |
Anixx-suse | samelian: why no crash then? |
samelian | i do not remember if ai patched my kcontrol as well |
Anixx-suse | ok |
samelian | you can give me crystal-suse from older distro? |
Anixx-suse | samelian: it was the same |
Anixx-suse | samelian: built from the same source |
samelian | aha, ok then |
Anixx-suse | samelian: also in the old distro all Gnome themes worked |
Anixx-suse | samelian: and high-contrast as well |
samelian | on older distro is the same kde3, not patched in any way to address this bug, right? |
Anixx-suse | samelian: yes. the same source |
samelian | ok |
samelian | seems that is not working inheritance |
Anixx-suse | yes |
Anixx-suse | but when the theme choosen it inherits from Crystal SVG |
Anixx-suse | note also that kde themes are installed in /opt/kde3/share/icons, but Gnome and GTK themes are in /usr/share/icons |
Anixx-suse | samelian: possible before calling this function there should be a check whether such icon exist or not and if not, then inherit it. That's why in this function there is no check if the file exists: one should not be here if there is no such file |
samelian | KIconTheme should search automatically for inheritance |
samelian | for a reason, it didn't |
samelian | ok, seems deep burried :) |
Anixx-suse | samelian: ) |
samelian | I will try to dig deeper these days |
Anixx-suse | samelian: ok |
samelian | at least is not crashing anymore |
Anixx-suse | samelian: yes. |
samelian | there is 3:00 AM, time to sleep |
samelian | gn all |
Anixx-suse | samelian: but some people also reported crashes in other kcontrol modules on 11.4 |
Anixx-suse | samelian: ok gn |
samelian | hmm, which one? |
samelian | make a list and send it on maillist, we will try to fix it |
samelian | where is possible, a backtrace would be helpful |
samelian | to identify the origin of problem |
Anixx-suse | samelian: i do not know, but they had crashes in kcontrol even with non-problematic theme selected in icons module (icons module separately worked well for them with this theme) |
Anixx-suse | samelian: i will try to ask |
Anixx-suse | samelian: good night, sergei |

Anixx-suse | samelian: I wanted to ask you about NM but now I found what I was looking for |
samelian | aha, ok |
samelian | you found any other patch? |
Anixx-suse | samelian: i had the patches already yesterday but was lookin for the tarbal |
Anixx-suse | samelian: the patches did not work with our NM 0.7 version |
samelian | is related to UUID? |
Anixx-suse | samelian: yes I wanted to add your patches |
*cfaust has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Anixx-suse | samelian: one guy in the out mailing list asked for your patches for compatibility with 0.8 to be integrated |
Anixx-suse | samelian: don't you want to join our kde3 mailing list? |
samelian | Anixx-suse: I think would be good ideea |
Anixx-suse | samelian: send a message to opensuse-kde3+subscribe@opensuse.org |
samelian | ok, thx |
samelian | ok, i'm in |
Anixx-suse | samelian: here is the archive: http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-kde3/ |
samelian | BTW, I working on a replacement for kio_sftp, based on libssh2 |
Anixx-suse | samelian: if it would be applicable to the vanilla KDE3 we would integrate it |
samelian | you need just to replace TQSomething with QSomething and should be ok |
Anixx-suse | samelian: once done, point me to the patch please |
samelian | sure |

MutantTurkey | wait hold on. |
MutantTurkey | I see the problem |
MutantTurkey | I need to do a check for HAVE_SSTREAM or else it fails. |
MutantTurkey | let me add that to configurechecks and get back to you. |
MutantTurkey | if it is defined in the code like ifdef# HAVE_SSTREAM blah blah do i just make a cmake variable that has HAVE_SSTREAM? |

Piki | Anixx-suse, bad connection? |
Anixx-suse | no |
Anixx-suse | just setting up kvirc |
MutantTurkey | i have always found kvirc to be a bit to much for me |
Anixx-suse | MutantTurkey: which client do you use? |
MutantTurkey | pidgin on a desktop, or irssi on console |
Anixx-suse | MutantTurkey: pidgin is gtk-based |
MutantTurkey | granted I only use pidgin because it has AIM, Gtalk, XMPP, facebook, and irc. |
MutantTurkey | Anixx-suse: I am not biased against gtk or qt |
MutantTurkey | If it offers excellent functionality i use it. |
Anixx-suse | MutantTurkey: i just want to have uniform interfce. in kde3 i use qt3 apps in gnome gtk apps |
MutantTurkey | :) there are many ways to do that. |
MutantTurkey | many themes and such |
Anixx-suse | MutantTurkey: themes do not do it well. also icon themes, desktop folder paths etc |
Anixx-suse | also there is ksirc |
MutantTurkey | I agree. |
MutantTurkey | I am definitely more used to using gtk apps, I developed a few a while back and use xfce on one of my desktops |
MutantTurkey | I do think qt is cleaner code, but I also don't like how it looks as much. infact i think gtk and qt look really bloated and take up to much damn space, no matter how many themes i try |
*anixx has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Piki | MutantTurkey, kopete offers all of those protocols, you can connect facebook and gtalk via xmpp/jabber, though irc was removed from kde4, and i don't know if tde has updated kopete's xmpp, that'll be the only problem with facebook |
anixx | this is ksirc |
Anixx-suse | this is kvirc |
Piki | personally i like konversationg for irc |
MutantTurkey | Piki: you've mentioned that before |
Piki | konversation? |
MutantTurkey | kotope |
MutantTurkey | kopete' |
Piki | oh, i did? |
MutantTurkey | I think so |
MutantTurkey | I am unsure if i can make the meeting on wednesday D: |
Anixx-suse | yes there is also konversation |
Anixx-suse | 3 clients |
MutantTurkey | ah |
Anixx-suse | for irc for kde3 |
Anixx-suse | but for dc++ we have only one client |
Piki | MutantTurkey, if it's not tuesday or wednesday, i can't make it |
MutantTurkey | It is tuesday i think |
Piki | i think samelian said the meeting was 2am his time zone |
MutantTurkey | I will just be late unfortunately |
MutantTurkey | Piki: thats what happens when people live all over the world |
Piki | we have to live all over the world |
MutantTurkey | That is the nature of things |
Piki | there's no one continent that can hold nearly 7billion people |
*anixx_ has joined #trinity-desktop | |
anixx_ | this is konversation |
Piki | MutantTurkey, the meeting was changed to tomorrow |
MutantTurkey | ok that is good |
Piki | same time, 7pm EST |
Piki | 11PM UTC |
samelian | MutantTurkey: you need CHECK_INCLUDE_FILE_CXX for sstream, because sstream is designed for c++ |
MutantTurkey | sstream is c++ :P |
MutantTurkey | ok thanks |
*Xu_R|School has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Piki | never thought i'd say this, but too much time and not enough to do... |
Anixx-suse | samelian: sergei, is the Qt3 patch ready? |
Xu_R|School | Piki: hmm... start making spec files for Ark Linux? it's probably a good idea, you can get to testing them with mock as soon as your comp is up? |
Xu_R|School | damn. I can't pester tim, he's not here atm. I need to pester him as much as I can about etherpad |
samelian | Anixx-suse: yes |
Anixx-suse | samelian: is there a link somewhere? |
Piki | Xu_R|Away, we do have the meeting tomorrow, he'll probably be on early, so you can pester him tomorrow if you don't see him today :-) |
Piki | just as long as it's up for the meeting |
Xu_R|School | Piki: no, I want to pester him now - I need to have the accounts set up by tommorrow :P |
Anixx-suse | Xu_R|School: Robert will you submit the patched Qt3? |
Anixx-suse | Xu_R|School: or I will remove the patch completely as it causes faults |
Xu_R|School | Anixx-suse: I haven't gotten a patch from samelian... :-\ |
Piki | Xu_R|Away, yeah, would definitely make things easier doing it today, but if he's on early enough i'm sure it can be done |
samelian | Xu_R|Away: search it on wiki |
Xu_R|School | ok. I'll submit an sr tonight, when I get home. |
Anixx-suse | ok |
Anixx-suse | samelian: is there any news with icons issue? |
Xu_R|School | ok, reading over the logs: samelian, MutantTurkey, the meeting is tomorrow, not today. |
Anixx-suse | samelian: i think if we could not resolve it we at least should have the problematic icons not shown at all or with a special error icon rather than as an icon from the previously selected theme |
Xu_R|School | samelian: is the patch level 0 or the same as before? |
samelian | level 0 |
Xu_R|School | ok |
Xu_R|School | ok, bbiab. if anyone sees kb9vqf tell him that I'm pestering him xD |
Piki | !seen kb9vqf-offsite |
tbottu | kb9vqf-offsite was last seen 19 hours, 48 minutes and 20 seconds ago, saying '* kb9vqf-offsite actually gets off now' in #trinity-desktop. |
Piki | !seen kb9vqf |
tbottu | kb9vqf was last seen 4 days, 18 hours, 23 minutes and 39 seconds ago, saying '* kb9vqf needs to shut this workstation down, see you all tomorrow' in #trinity-desktop. |
Piki | now we know which to watch out for :-) |
*Z_God has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Piki | hi Z_God |
Z_God | Piki: hi |
Piki | samelian, get ready for cmake questions overload :-) going to take Xu_R|Away's advice and start preparing my specs for my packages, already working on my directory structure while i wait for svn |
samelian | hehe, ok |
Piki | >.< stupid live cd, can't fit the whole svn, gonna have to do it little at a time |
Piki | samelian, i'll need tqt first, right? (after the qt patch, of course, i'll do that when i have my hard disk) |
samelian | yes |
Piki | what would be a suitable version number to put for tqt? 0.1 or something like that? |
samelian | not sure, it's Tim's baby :) |
Piki | it will do quite a bit of crying when it finds out we don't know how old it is :-P |
*Z_God has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Piki | samelian, you said to look in CMakeLists.txt for replacements of ./configure options? any particular section? |
samelian | actually cmake is not automake :) |
Piki | i know |
samelian | open main CMakeLists.txt |
samelian | and check for option() commands |
Piki | i'm used to using options such as "./configure --prefix=/something --with-something=yes" |
Piki | but i don't know what options to use with cmake |
samelian | cmake /path/to/source -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=something -DWITH_SOMETHING=ON |
samelian | do not forget to use out of source |
Piki | yes |
Piki | i'm not building now, i want to have my build scripts for rpm ready |
Piki | i need my hard disk first, no money until thursday |
samelian | hehe, disks are not so expensive :) |
Piki | but they still cost money |
samelian | actually I think in US is much chaper than there |
Piki | i've literally no money |
samelian | move to romania :) |
Piki | i've only a few pennies (a penny is the smallest unit of our currency, and nothing is cheap enough to pay with entirely with pennies) |
samelian | aha |
samelian | but you have a job, if I correctly understood |
Piki | yes |
Piki | and i get payed on thursday |
samelian | aha |
Piki | paid* |
Piki | i get paid every two weeks on thursday |
samelian | yeah, is hard to live without money, I remember this dark times ;) |
Piki | i have to pay my phone bill and order a new hard disk and order a new keyboard, i lost some of my laptop keys cleaning the keyboard, i'm using a desktop PS/2 keyboard with usb adapter |
Piki | phone and hard disk are first |
samelian | bleah, I have no phone |
samelian | actually I have, but prepay |
samelian | and I never prepay it :) |
samelian | I just don't need the phone |
Piki | we require phones here |
samelian | I use instant messaging for everything |
Piki | so the job can call us, so we can call police, and almost nobody talks with voice, most everybody uses text messaging on their phones even though their phones can let them talk with their voices |
samelian | hehe |
Piki | i hate text messaging, even with a phone keyboard it takes too long to type, and people shorten everything, i feel like i'm trying to interpret md5sums |
samelian | in our country is so cheap to talk on mobile, my wife literally spend hours to talk with her friends |
Piki | but i don't know of any cheap cell phone providers in my area that do NOT have text messaging |
Piki | i get mad at people for texting me |
samelian | haha |
samelian | my sms is set to be silent |
samelian | I receive just spam on sms |
Piki | all of our phones play music too, i could almost jump mount everest when someone's phone suddenly plays heavy metal |
Piki | i prefer the ringing noise our old land phones used to make |
Piki | samelian, i get spam too |
Piki | and calls asking for people i've never heard of |
samelian | haha |
samelian | or to buy something you don't need |
Piki | i've had my phone number a long time, but i still get people asking for someone else, and i don't understand the name they're asking for |
samelian | my land phone are disconnected from line for this reason :) |
Piki | our cell phones don't normally get telemarketers over here, mostly land phones |
samelian | I hate cheap telephony :) |
samelian | I keep land line just for ADSL |
Piki | samelian, you guys need an opt-in "do not call" list for the telemarketers :-) |
samelian | hehe, I think there is no amavis for voice :) |
Piki | amavis? not familiar with it |
samelian | email antispam engine |
Piki | ah |
Piki | in the usa, some areas have a do not call list, telemarketers have to check them every 30 days, any number listed is off-limits |
Piki | people can add themselves to the do not call list at their options |
samelian | nice |
Piki | but each entry expires after awhile |
Piki | so then we have to opt back in |
samelian | these days we are flooded by spam from everywhere :) |

Piki | hmm, can't figure out how to make rpm build out of source |
Piki | we retrieve our source from a tarball anyway, so i can always setup my buildsystem to make tarballs from svn for whatever's being built |
Piki | so if i contaminate, svn will still be clean |
Piki | i should lookup how to make rpm do out of source though |
samelian | Piki: mkdir /tmp/build && cd /tmp/build && cmake /path/to/sources |
Piki | samelian, i'm preparing my rpm build scripts |
samelian | ah, ok |
Piki | i don't know how to write the spec to do that |
samelian | ask Robert, maybe he knows |
Piki | yes, i'll ask him later if i can't find it |
samelian | or Anixx-suse |
Piki | samelian, cmake replaces only ./configure, right? as in, i have to do "cmake /path/to/source && make"? |
*cfaust has joined #trinity-desktop | |
samelian | yes |
Anixx-suse | samelian: I commit this variant of kdelibs? seems this issue is not going to be improved soon, right? |
samelian | i think no, I busy with other things |
samelian | please fill a buf |
samelian | bug |
samelian | we will try to kill it later |
Anixx-suse | samelian: asking because each commit triggers massive rebuild |
Anixx-suse | samelian: ok |
Anixx-suse | samelian: what is KDE_MULTIHEAD env variable? does KDE3 use it? |
*K`zan has joined #trinity-desktop | |
samelian | i'm not sure |
Piki | Anixx-suse, taking a complete guess, i'm thinking it might be related to using multiple monitors, people tend to use the slang "dual head" when using two monitors |
samelian | seems that is used |
samelian | TQCString multiHead = getenv("KDE_MULTIHEAD"); |
samelian | if (multiHead.lower() == "true") { |
samelian | // if multihead is enabled, we save our -display argument so that |
samelian | // we are restored onto the correct head... one problem with this |
samelian | // is that the display is hard coded, which means we cannot restore |
samelian | // to a different display (ie. if we are in a university lab and try, |
Anixx-suse | Piki: I don't think so |
samelian | // try to restore a multihead session, our apps could be started on |
samelian | // someone else's display instead of our own) |
Anixx-suse | Piki: oh seems you are right |
Piki | samelian, you can use pastebin, pasting a lot of lines can get you flooded |
samelian | hehe |
Anixx-suse | just spotted that is is set to false in OpenSUSE |
Piki | i remember tim saying that tbottu doesn't allow it, he may have tbottu limit the channel more than freenode does |
Piki | samelian, not sure if you have a pastebin.ro or something, but there are a lot out there, the two most popular seem pastebin.com and pastie.org |
samelian | don't worry, i know |
samelian | paste.lug.ro |
samelian | is maintained by romanian linux user group |
samelian | I was just to lazy to use it this time :) |
Piki | ah |
Piki | i don't know if any of the usa lugs have a pastebin, probably not, they are small, not enough linux users :-( |
samelian | haha |
Piki | considering developing countries are more likely to choose linux over M$ or apple, we may need to change :-_ |

*samelian listen '90 eurodance :) | |
*Piki listens to Yanni, the greatest of world-renowned artists :-) | |
samelian | ah, greek artist, very nice |
Piki | yep |
Piki | americanized greek music, moved to usa for college, grew up in greece |
Piki | he takes his sounds from different parts of the world, different genres, and different ages and combines them in a unique and honest way, that's what makes it great |
*samelian likes and is listening "Keys To Imagination" :) | |
Piki | :-) |
samelian | I must to go to Greece sometime |
Piki | my favorite is somewhere among Play Time, Rainmaker, and For All Seasons |
samelian | my boss is Greek actually |
Piki | but i really like all of it |
Piki | samelian, i hear they have yanni on the billboards there |
Piki | i wish i could go, just to experience the culture, i don't really care for site seeing |
samelian | I has a greek roommate, when I was in Ukraine for two weeks |
samelian | really nice people |
samelian | I spent hours to talking with him about greek mythology |
samelian | with a lot beer and wine, of course :) |
Piki | first time svn asked me to set a variable for my editor |
Piki | samelian, i don't drink alcohol, even though i'm of legal age, don't approve of it :-) |
samelian | hehe, from time to time is nice to be drunk :) |
samelian | anti-stress cure :) |
Piki | i prefer to keep a clear head so i can think :-) don't want to get drunk and wake up wandering why i'm in jail |
samelian | haha |
Piki | yeah, waking up in jail would make the stress worse |
samelian | I think there the police is not so strict as in USA |
samelian | here is Eastern Europe :) |
samelian | kind of jungle |
Piki | alcohol wears off after awhile and is rumored to kill brain cells |
Piki | samelian, everything seems more strict in usa :-( |
samelian | this wonder me pretty much |
Piki | well, some things are more strict while other things people don't really care for |
Piki | prostitution is illegal, but it seems we don't enforce that law very well |
samelian | here either |
Piki | but if we're caught driving drunk, we go directly to jail |
samelian | yes, driving drunk is very danger, here is not jail for this, but he retain driving licence |
samelian | for 3 month or so |
Piki | not sure what we do about the driver's license, but we are required to stay in jail until we are sober |
Piki | if we are pulled over for something serious, we also go to court |
samelian | this good actually, the car is very dangerous device |
Piki | yes |
Piki | i don't drive, never got my license |
Piki | i walk if i can, or take public bus |
samelian | aha, i got my own driving licence two year ago, I'm beginer :) |
Piki | i've been of legal driving age for 7 years, but different states have different ages |
Piki | south of here one of the states is 14 |
samelian | here we must have 18+ |
Piki | i wouldn't trust a driving 14yo driver |
samelian | hehe |
Piki | samelian, i'm for 20 myself, give people will be a bit more mature, though not many mature people, even at 22 :-( |
samelian | for sure |
samelian | I'm 35 old :) |
Piki | i had a teacher at school saying that nobody is old enough to drive, that she drives because she has to |
samelian | seems that i'm oldest on this channel |
samelian | in your state you can drink alchool under 21? |
samelian | US seems pretty strange to me, one country, different laws |
Piki | 21 is the legal drinking ag |
Piki | age |
Piki | samelian, the way we work is that each state can have it's own law as long as it doesn't conflict with federal law |
samelian | aha |
Piki | our system was meant to leave as much power as possible to the states as possible and only have the federal government create laws when necessary |
Piki | kinda wander if that's still true today |
Piki | samelian, actually, we have three levels of law: federal is the highest level, then state, then local (which will be at the municipal level, such as an area covered at the mayor) |
samelian | the governor is sort of state president, right? |
Piki | local can't conflict with state, which can't conflict with federal, but that as much power should be local as possible |
Piki | samelian, sort of, he just makes administrative decisions |
samelian | aha, like our prime minister |
Piki | the way each local area works depends on how the local area is setup, e.g. a township won't have a mayor but a group of administrators, but a major city will have a mayor, then there's the county, then the state, then the federal government |
Piki | samelian, we vote for the governor every couple years |
Piki | as with all of our government officials |
Piki | so no position is guaranteed permanant, only if we decide to keep them there, then they can retire |
samelian | aha, our president is elected by people, but prime minister and his cabinet is elected by Parliament |
samelian | here the President have no decision power |
Piki | most people will say that if you vote, you can complain because you put them in office, but if you vote, you created the problem because you're the one who put them in office, so you don't have a right to complain |
Piki | that's my view |
samelian | hehe |
Piki | samelian, our president has a limited set of administrative power, as with any government position |
Piki | each branch of our government has it's own set of powers, and is meant to keep each other branch in check |
Piki | but that was setup back before we had political parties |
Piki | if one party dominates every branch of our government, the checks and balances fails miserably |
Piki | because they all agree with each other |
Piki | and if each branch is a different party |
Piki | nothing gets done because they can't agree with each other on most issues, so almost nothing gets done because they're all voting against each other |
samelian | yep, democracy is not perfect :) |
Piki | no form of government is |
Piki | they all have major flaws |
Piki | but anarchy is the worst |
Piki | followed by monarchy and dictatorship |
samelian | Japan and UK handle it pretty well, I think |
Piki | democracy is best IMO, it's just what implementation of democracy that the people prefer that determines the flaws present |
samelian | actually in Europe we have a lot countries with constitutional monarchy |
Piki | samelian, constitutional monarchy? what's that? |
samelian | like in UK |
samelian | actually, as far I know Canada and Australia are monarchy as well |
Piki | can i get some advice on the arklinux.org site? i just upgraded drupal, and our old theme is still in development for the current drupal, so i changed it, and it doesn't support the old layout, so i've moved stuff around a bit. it's a bit cleaner and more organized, i just want advice to make sure it will work well |
Piki | so far the feedback is good, but that's from just two people |
Piki | also, if anybody uses drupal, i want to remove the "Read More" link from the first article on the front page, the entire article is there, but i want to keep the read more for the recent news below the first article. so far on drupal,.org, i'm seeing to either change the front page (which i'll try, but i think that might remove the recent news that's there), or a code edit to remove the link from everything on the front page |
Piki | i'll keep searching, but if any drupal users have a suggestion, please let me know |
Piki | Xu_R, tim came on awhile ago and quit right away |
Piki | i think you might have to email him if he's not back soon |
Xu_R | Piki: :( |
Xu_R | oh, he'll be back. hopefully. |
Xu_R | gah... I hate District 2 Orchestra Festival... That took forever to end. |
Xu_R | brb, then need to sr, then... stuff. |
Xu_R | back - now to sr... |
*dtmaster has joined #trinity-desktop | |
dtmaster | hello |
Piki | hi dtmaster |
Piki | dtmaster, we're all a bit busy, we'll be a little slow, but we'll definitely respond :-) |
dtmaster | I'm from germany and my english ist not so good, but i have a problem with build kdelibs from svn with cmake. |
dtmaster | I'm trying it for almost 10 hours and always get the same error. |
Piki | dtmaster, we're good at understanding bad english :-) |
Xu_R | dtmaster: what error? |
dtmaster | http://pastebin.com/fv2vbWn8 |
dtmaster | this error |
Xu_R | dtmaster: what version from SVN is this? |
dtmaster | i have installed qt3 latest and our patch. tqtinterface with cmake and arts are installed without problems. |
dtmaster | i have checked out svn at last night |
Xu_R | dtmaster: can you please post the contents of CMakeError.log to pastebin? |
dtmaster | please moment i can. ^^ |
dtmaster | http://pastebin.com/Gx9vcHXz |
Xu_R | dtmaster: are you building in source mode or out of source? |
dtmaster | this is a good question. |
dtmaster | ^^ |
dtmaster | my linux system is linux from scratch.. (lfs) |
Xu_R | dtmaster: yes, did you create a new, clean directory first? |
dtmaster | yes |
Xu_R | so, did you go to the new, clean directory and run cmake from there? |
dtmaster | source are in /sources/kdelibs an i build in /sources/build |
dtmaster | yes i make so |
Xu_R | dtmaster: ok, did you do this for all your packages? |
dtmaster | i have this make so with tqtinterface and arts |
Xu_R | OK, good, that's good. Can you give me the cmake command you used then? :) |
dtmaster | yes. cmake /sources/kde-pakete/kdelibs -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/trinity -DCMAKE_VERBOSE_MAKEFILE=ON -DWITH_QT3=ON -DQTDIR=/opt/qt -DQT_LIBRARY_DIRS=/opt/qt/lib -DBUILD_ALL=ON |
Xu_R | ok, please wait :) |
dtmaster | ok |
Xu_R | dtmaster: please remove -DBUILD_ALL=ON, that is only for kdebase builds :) |
dtmaster | ok |
dtmaster | i have make the command without -DBUILD_ALL=ON |
Xu_R | :D |
Xu_R | OK, submit request to SuSE done. Now to take care of a few other things :) |
dtmaster | why SuSE ? |
Xu_R | dtmaster: SuSE still maintains KDE3. I'm planning, with the current KDE3 maintainer, to gradually transition to Trinity. |
dtmaster | ah ok.. |
Xu_R | I maintain the Trinity packages for distributions such as Fedora and Mandriva. I also play a role of slowly getting Trinity into BLFS. |
Xu_R | aka, too much! lol. |
dtmaster | can i make qt4 for trinity from svn ? |
Xu_R | dtmaster: At the moment, sadly, no. Qt4 integration is not complete. |
Xu_R | :( |
dtmaster | ok.. but in have without -DBUILD_ALL=ON the same error.. :( |
dtmaster | -in +i |
Xu_R | dtmaster: :( |
Xu_R | dtmaster: hmm... the error is bugging me :-\ |
Xu_R | dtmaster: can I have the cmake arguments for TQtinterface? |
dtmaster | cmake /sources/kde-pakete/tqtinterface -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/qt -DWITH_QT3=ON |
dtmaster | will you see a log from check after cmake comman in kdelibs ? |
dtmaster | *command |
Xu_R | dtmaster: I saw the log, I can probably guess what is happening |
Xu_R | dtmaster: ok, this might need SVN fixing - can you please send a message to trinity-devel? Quickest way to get cmake errors fixed. |
Xu_R | Make sure to include the cmake command and the error logs :) |
dtmaster | to this adress ? trinity-devel@lists.pearsoncomputing.net |
Xu_R | dtmaster: yes, please. Make sure you're subscribed to the list. |
dtmaster | ok.. i make this directly |
Xu_R | dtmaster: thank you :) |
dtmaster | i have send |
dtmaster | oo.. i become a failure notice after send |
dtmaster | Sorry, only subscribers may post. If you are a subscriber, please forward this message to trinity-devel-owner@lists.pearsoncomputing.net to get your new address included. (#5.7.2) |
Xu_R | dtmaster: please subscribe to the mailing list |
Xu_R | To subscribe, send an empty Email to trinity-devel-subscribe@lists.pearsoncomputing.net |
dtmaster | ahh ok |
dtmaster | i have send a empty email.. |
Piki | dtmaster, now you'll get an email back. it will tell you how to finish subscribing |
dtmaster | i become a email with confirm.. |
Xu_R | dtmaster: received an email about confirming? just reply with a blank message to it. |
dtmaster | ahhhh... |
Xu_R | dtmaster: got your email message :) |
dtmaster | http://trinity-devel.pearsoncomputing.net/?0:201103 <-- the first with kdelibs ^^ |
dtmaster | cool |
Xu_R | awesome! I'll show the other devs to it who can fix it in SVN :) |
Xu_R | dtmaster: give it about a day :) We have a meeting tomorrow, I can bring it up then. |
dtmaster | Thanks. |
dtmaster | I hope someone can fix. kde4 because I do not like. |
Xu_R | dtmaster: yes, kde4 is not the best work KDE e.V. has ever put out. |
dtmaster | yes. the best kde is kde3.. and gnome i like not so.. |
Xu_R | dtmaster: :) |
dtmaster | and gnome3 is ..beep... ^^ |
Xu_R | dtmaster: oh, yea, that I definitely agree with. gnome 3 is @%#@$% |
dtmaster | rofl |
Xu_R | hehe |
Xu_R | dtmaster: I'd ask the cmake dev right now, but he's CET - he's asleep now :P |
Piki | i've seen people make gnome look extremely close to gnome |
Xu_R | Piki: ... |
Piki | *make kde3 look extremely close to gnome |
Xu_R | Piki: oh. lol. |
Xu_R | I was like, whaaa? |
Piki | lol |
Piki | i've seen people make gnome look exactly like gnome :-P |
dtmaster | my time here is 03:23 am.. ^^ |
Xu_R | dtmaster: oh, you are UTC? |
Xu_R | dtmaster: in that case, this is where you usually go to sleep :P |
dtmaster | no.. i can not sleep. i need to install 3 server for cutomer. |
Piki | Xu_R, do you know how to remove the "Read More" link from a single article in drupal 7? i want to remove it from the first article on arklinux.org (the About Ark Linux article at the top) and have the full article displayed but keep the read more for everything else |
Xu_R | dtmaster: :( |
Piki | i have the full article (copied it to the summary box) |
Piki | dtmaster, :-( |
Xu_R | Piki: you need to create a front page (like, an *actual* front page) |
Xu_R | so, make a basic page |
Xu_R | then put stuff on it |
Xu_R | and then you can make it your front page - and then use blocks to display recent news at the bottom |
Piki | ah, didn't think of blocks |
Piki | don't know how to use them, will have to get the guid |
Piki | guide* |
Xu_R | Piki: remember, blocks are awesome. |
Xu_R | :P |
Piki | my goal is to have the intro article, then display recent news, and move the old ones to an archive list |
Xu_R | Piki: blocks will help you with that. |
Piki | maybe see if bero will move the wordpress blog to our site |
Xu_R | Piki: well, I did suggest that before :P yes, it's good to keep everything in one place :) |
Piki | he started it before we switched to drupal |
Xu_R | Piki: here, for an example, this is the Beta.Lincom website: http://beta.lincomlinux.org/ |
*Anixx-suse has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Xu_R | using drupal 7 :) |
Piki | Xu_R, i was tired when you suggested it, and i'm not exactly the ark linux administrator, just the webmaster :-) |
Xu_R | Anixx-suse: sr request 64225 |
Xu_R | Piki: lol. |
Anixx-suse | Xu_R: thanks |
Xu_R | Anixx-suse: np |
dtmaster | I like doing it. It is so well paid. |
Anixx-suse | Xu_R: i will rebuild it along kdelib3 |
Xu_R | Anixx-suse: I added the 3.3.8b tarball back, because not many mirrors have it anymore, so it's good to keep a copy just in case. |
Xu_R | dtmaster: :) |
Xu_R | Piki: I talked with bero about 2 weeks ago. He seems really busy with his current job :P but it was nice of him to stop in. |
Piki | he said he was applying for a new job, and if he gets it he'll have more time to devote to ark |
Piki | it's a job doing open source stuff with intel |
Xu_R | Piki: yes, he told me that. |
Piki | i don't have the description with me |
Xu_R | Piki: well, bero will do well with that stuff... |
Anixx-suse | btw it seems the patch Sergei did actually fixes the problem to the point of opensuse 11.3. |
Xu_R | Anixx-suse: Awesome! :D |
Anixx-suse | in fact there is an error in KDE3 |
Piki | Xu_R, of course, he created the only distro to work on my hardware :-) |
Xu_R | Anixx-suse: oh? |
dtmaster | <-- installed server. thx for help. I will still remain here in the channel. |
Xu_R | dtmaster: stop in anytime and chat :) |
Anixx-suse | it does show the icons previews incorrectly if the theme does not include the icons even on 11.3 |
Anixx-suse | Xu_R: i just tested in suse studio on an 11.3 system |
Xu_R | Anixx-suse: ah, so it's not just 11.4. At least we got to the root cause. |
Anixx-suse | Xu_R: this seems not to be solved so far |
Xu_R | Anixx-suse: progress is slow, but steady :P |
*Viper550 has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Anixx-suse | Xu_R: yes. the crash was simply due to a change in zlib: in 11.4 it crashes when receives null-string. Sergei added the check and so there is no crash now |
Viper550 | Are there any plans to give Trinity more of an identity beyond KDE 3.5's default look? |
Xu_R | Anixx-suse: :D |
Anixx-suse | Xu_R: but the icon previw still displayed incorrectly showing sometimes random icons if the theme does not have ones |
Piki | hi Viper550 |
Xu_R | Viper550: hey dude! long time no see. yes, sooner or later. :P |
Viper550 | Xu_R, Where were you from? |
Anixx-suse | Xu_R: this is also on 11.3 |
Xu_R | Viper550: used to be on #arklinux for a time. I lurk too much ;) |
Anixx-suse | it either should use theme inheritance or display a thumb icon when the icon does not exist in the theme |
Xu_R | Anixx-suse: so, KDE3 needs to be modded to do that... Well, this will help both the repository and Trinity improve :) |
Viper550 | like, our own default/such |
Xu_R | Viper550: we're already porting to Qt4 - probably make a Trinity theme when we get there. in the meantime, the defaults are still fine... |
Anixx-suse | Xu_R: yes. the creators simply did not account a possibility that an icon theme may not include the three basic icons used for previews |
Piki | Viper550, we are trying to get setup with weekly meetings (we have one scheduled tomorrow), i'm sure we'll discuss theming in one of our meetings, i don't think it's on tomorrow's agenda though |
Xu_R | Piki: it's probably not going to be weekly, more like monthly. |
Piki | mainly cmake porting and bug squashing |
Xu_R | Anixx-suse: ~sigh~ sloppy. |
Piki | Xu_R, yeah, availability will probably be too scattered |
Piki | Xu_R, it's getting late, nearly 2300, not sure tim's time zone but he may not be on tonight (unless he goes to bed late) |
Xu_R | Piki: tim is CST |
Xu_R | Anixx-suse: it's not a violation of SuSE policy to keep the 3.3.8b tarball in there just in case... right? |
Xu_R | just wondering, it crossed my mine for a second. |
Xu_R | *mind |
Anixx-suse | Xu_R: contrary, it is just the desired practice |
Xu_R | Anixx-suse: oh. Awesome. That's good. |
Anixx-suse | Xu_R: they even do not have a kdebase (and kdelibs) 3.5.10 tarballs, just tarballs from the previous version and a diff |
Xu_R | Anixx-suse: wow. |
Anixx-suse | Xu_R: i was wrong they have |
Xu_R | Anixx-suse: oh. |
Anixx-suse | Xu_R: but I saw this practice somewhere in kde3 |
Xu_R | hmm... sounds like Mandriva would do that... |
Anixx-suse | Xu_R: it seems that the change only changes the version number |
Anixx-suse | Xu_R: what about the other changes by Sergei |
Anixx-suse | ? |
Xu_R | Anixx-suse: yes, that's the only change... |
Xu_R | that was the only one he made... |
Anixx-suse | Xu_R: he said he fixed some crashes |
Xu_R | Anixx-suse: in kde, not qt3? |
Anixx-suse | Xu_R: in the qt3 patch |
Anixx-suse | Xu_R: and also you should not include the both tarballs |
Xu_R | Anixx-suse: I just took the latest one from the wiki :-\ |
Anixx-suse | Xu_R: the bast would include only 3.3.8b + a patch |
Anixx-suse | Xu_R: in that case I will not accept the change. it is too minor for a week-long rebuild |
Xu_R | Anixx-suse: ok - but when samelian comes on you need to ask for him to put his latest qt3 work into a new patch. |
Anixx-suse | Xu_R: indeed |
Anixx-suse | Xu_R: and also it would be better if you include only 3.3.8b tarball and a patch |
Anixx-suse | Xu_R: if the patch from the wiki does not work, use diff utility |
Xu_R | Anixx-suse: ok. |

*kb9vqf is thinking of slapping together a Debian package for TQt | |
Xu_R | great job, kb9vqf! |
kb9vqf | Thanks |
Xu_R | ah, good idea. if you put a tqt for qt4 package together, then we can start testing on it :D |
kb9vqf | Still very rough around the edges |
kb9vqf | I'd want some people to help fix it ;-) |
Xu_R | pfft - blemishes :P |
Xu_R | hehe |
kb9vqf | At least tracing the cause of problems would help |
kb9vqf | That's eating most of my time |
kb9vqf | If someone can say "this line of Trinity code triggers this TQt bug" things would go much faster |
Xu_R | True. |
kb9vqf | But hey, wasn't this supposed to be impossible according to KDE4? ;0) |

Xu_R|School | remember, the meeting is over at #trinity-desktop-meeting and you can join there now to wait :) |
Xu_R|School | kb9vqf: thanks for setting up etherpad :D |
MutantTurkey | Strangelv: I can call you if you'd like :p |
Strangelv | 940 594 3823 |
MutantTurkey | ok. what time would you like for me to call you? |
Strangelv | Alarm set; see if I sleep through it |
Strangelv | "if I'm missing when the meeting starts |
Strangelv | "well missing is the wrong term |
MutantTurkey | I won't be here until a bit late, Xu_R can you call him? |
Strangelv | I'f I seem to just be lurking still |
*techie26 has joined #trinity-desktop | |
*Strangelv tries to remember where the wiki is and how to put things up on it so he can put up a presentation for people to grumble about | |
*Strangelv needs the grumbles. This is the first iteration even if he's liking it a lot moer than he expected to at this stage | |
*Strangelv really likes the [not telling yet] variant | |
Strangelv | Starts at 19:00 Eastern Daylight Time? |
MutantTurkey | yes. |
MutantTurkey | though i think that in meetings from now on we should start earlier |
Strangelv | By any chance do you rememberl the wiki URL? |
Strangelv | http://trinitydesktop.org/wiki |
Strangelv | found |
MutantTurkey | :) |
MutantTurkey | also we are using etherpads now to keep current notes |
MutantTurkey | wiki is for long term information, the etherpad is good for what is going on now |
*Strangelv remembered his password. His username was a problem... | |
Xu_R|School | Strangelv: username is firstnamelastname :P |
Strangelv | "This is for a topic no one else is working on AFAIK |
Xu_R|School | kb9vqf: btw, this is not working: http://trinity.etherpad.trinitydesktop.org/ep/search very useful if visitors want to search our current work |
*Strangelv can find no clue for where to go to upload images for the page. He remembers there being more controls earlier | |
Strangelv | hmm |
Xu_R|School | hey, for those of you who would like an etherpad account, please send a blank email to robxu9@gmail ASAP. |
Xu_R|School | *robxu9@gmail.com |
Xu_R|School | ping Piki, MutantTurkey, Strangelv, samelian ^^ |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R|School: I can't open my email right now, I will pm you |
Xu_R|School | got MutantTurkey, got samelian |
MutantTurkey | ok |
MutantTurkey | samelian: hey, cmake doesn't understand check_include_file_cxx says it is unknown command |
Xu_R|School | got Piki |
*Strangelv sends a blank email as instructed and goes back to trying to figurle out how to upload 15 images before he falls asleep | |
samelian | MutantTurkey: include( CheckIncludeFileCXX ) |
Strangelv | "OR should I create a new pad on Etherpad and put the images there? |
Xu_R|School | got Strangelv |
samelian | I do not like very much all these notices about DMCA and US laws |
Xu_R|School | samelian: :( I copied that right from kb9vqf's notice on etherpad.trinitydesktop.org :-\ |
samelian | i think that all these stuff must be neutral |
Strangelv | Hollywood-dictated copyright stupidity coming to a country near YOU! |
samelian | hehe, I do not want it :) |
Strangelv | "Join the club |
Xu_R|School | ok, I'll take it away from rules :P |
Xu_R|School | but the frontpage notice I can't do anything about. |
Xu_R|School | done |
*Strangelv notes that what he's wanting to upload would probably apply under trademark law if somehow evenyone liked the idea and no one could come up with changesrequiring nits | |
samelian | better :) |
Xu_R|School | :) |
samelian | i'm scaried every time I read about DMCA :) |
Xu_R|School | XD |
Strangelv | "I've been scared about it since I first read about it. 8( |
Xu_R|School | ok, I have to go for now. I'll be back in a bit :) |
*Strangelv looks for an etherpad password. He finds: "We would like to give colleagues and friends of our loyal readers an opportunity to receive their own complimentary subscription to InformationWeek." | |
Strangelv | "wait, here it is |
Piki | we need to get the old etherpad copied over |
Piki | before the meeting later, unless we want to look at the old one |
MutantTurkey | did kb9vqf put up the etherpad on trinitydesktop? |
Piki | yes |
MutantTurkey | does Darrell ever come on the irc? I see him often calling us to make progress, (Which we are actually making) and then saying he is loosing faith D: |
MutantTurkey | Piki: okay cool. url? |
*Strangelv wvonders if the default settings are the required settings. | |
Strangelv | "Hopefully if they're not the same no one will delete the page befole the meeting |
Piki | MutantTurkey, http://trinity.etherpad.trinitydesktop.org |
MutantTurkey | cool. |
MutantTurkey | I am glad we have the website (trinitydesktop.org) finally |
MutantTurkey | when I joined this project we were not even close to this and now we have a new webpage and all :) |
Piki | MutantTurkey, i see the progress happening all the time, both on irc and the mailing list |
Piki | one thing people need to understand is that development is hard, especially for a small project |
MutantTurkey | well they just think it "happens" and that everyone has so much freetime |
Piki | it's not like we're going to pull of an ubuntu: release before it's ready |
MutantTurkey | i hate ubuntu for that haha |
MutantTurkey | no one needs a releaes every six months |
MutantTurkey | it make s it complicated and crappy |
Piki | MutantTurkey, yes, instant gratification just doesn't work in software |
Strangelv | "It's not justa project with a small team. It's a projkect with a small team picking up from someone erlse's rather large code base |
Piki | just think of how long it took linus to get to 1.0 |
Strangelv | I'd modify that sentiment |
Strangelv | Not everything needs to be updated every six months |
Strangelv | A lot of things will have updated though, and I've been happier with *ubuntu than I was with Debian |
MutantTurkey | Strangelv: yes. good point |
MutantTurkey | Strangelv: archlinux is the best imho. |
MutantTurkey | and debian sid |
Piki | ubuntu doesn't work |
Piki | not at all |
MutantTurkey | with arch, there is no updated version, just upgrades. |
Piki | i've never seen it work |
MutantTurkey | we are rolling release, that way we never break from an updated install, |
Piki | brb, need to plug in |
MutantTurkey | and we are totally cutting edge, typically the day software is released we get it in our repos |
MutantTurkey | or within a few days |
Strangelv | "I've actually been using kubuntu or Tubuntu since 5.04 after I realiszed that Libranet realyl and truly was not coming back |
MutantTurkey | I never even heard of libranet :P |
Strangelv | "I needed a new solution for Debian with a usable installer. That's not quite what I got, and my first install became a mess with Debian and ubuntu packagevsz competing with each other |
MutantTurkey | It cost money? that is ridiculous |
Strangelv | "Libranet was a Canadian Debian based distribution that was very installable. I found it was worth the money to get 2.8.1, whereupon 2.8.1 became frlee about 2-3 months later |
MutantTurkey | ah |
Strangelv | I lacked the money for 3.0 at the time, then the main deverloper died, his son pulled the plug, and 3.0 ceased to be available at any price |
Strangelv | 8( |
Piki | Strangelv, Ark Linux, easy to install and use, and flexible for the veterans :-) we need testers though, our stable is severely outdated and we need something for fosscond |
Piki | we don't do every 6 months either, we generally aim for once a year with minimal hotfixes, so we can keep things stable |
MutantTurkey | yeah |
MutantTurkey | I prefer no releases :P or like debian, so damned long you'll die before you see the next release |
MutantTurkey | samelian: ok, if in the code there is a #ifdef VARIABLE, how do i define that variable from cmake? |
MutantTurkey | config.h.cmake? |
Piki | i prefer megafrozen releases, with a rolling system there's too much chance to break things once it's stable |
MutantTurkey | Piki: never happens on arch. |
MutantTurkey | everything goes in a testing repo first, for a day or so, if it is critical |
MutantTurkey | like udev, new kernel etc. |
MutantTurkey | I have never had a breakage since i installed it 2 years ago |
Piki | can't really give it a good, thorough testing if it's only a day |
MutantTurkey | Piki: more than a day, but if it is all good (usually is) we let it go into the main repos |
MutantTurkey | but only after they are tested by a few other developers, they have to "sign off" on anything going into our [core] (for critical packages, like kernel, grub etc.) |
MutantTurkey | typically the biggest problems are the library rebuilds, eg when libpng got bumped, they have to rebuild all packages |
*Strangelv wanted to stick to Debian Testin,g but everything he needed was compiled against Sid, and then when Sarge came out Sid was impressively less than stable | |
samelian | MutantTurkey: set( blabla ) in CMakeLists.txt or ConfigureChecks.cmake and #cmakedefine in config.h.cmake |
Piki | MutantTurkey, just because it works for developers doesn't mean it works for users, different people have different setups. it's better to get approval from both users and developers |
*Strangelv looks for TFMTR for Etherpad and uploads, but he's too fried to search well | |
MutantTurkey | Piki: I am a user and a developer :) |
MutantTurkey | thats what arch is. |
MutantTurkey | alot of devels and such. we are an advanced community i would say |
MutantTurkey | typically peoples 2nd or 3rd distro |
Piki | so if i used arch, that'd make me a developer whether i want to be or not? |
MutantTurkey | no :P |
MutantTurkey | but yes at the same time |
Piki | exactly |
MutantTurkey | just by hanging around arch users you get better, learn about stuff |
MutantTurkey | etc. |
MutantTurkey | being in #archlinux has made me 1000 times better at linux |
Piki | people will want to be users and not developers |
MutantTurkey | also archlinux is designed for the simplest approach, so it is easy to understand. |
Piki | those people need to test too |
MutantTurkey | Piki: that is why we don't target end users as much as devlopers |
MutantTurkey | Piki: yes, that is what [testing] is for, like I use testing, if anything breaks i report it |
MutantTurkey | so far nothing has broken for me. |
Piki | i've seen more stuff break on rolling updates and frequent releases like ubuntu than on fully tested megafrozen systems |
Piki | that's why i use ark, stable is well tested, so it works |
MutantTurkey | try arch :) you'll like it. |
MutantTurkey | I asked in #archlinux who we target, barzam: MutantTurkey: people that can read I think Mion: MutantTurkey: anyone with a brain |
MutantTurkey | lol |
Piki | i couldn't get dhcp remember? |
MutantTurkey | " Arch Linux is a versatile, and simple distribution designed to fit the needs of the competent Linux® user." |
MutantTurkey | why not? |
MutantTurkey | that is exceedingly simple |
Piki | apparently not |
MutantTurkey | just setup stuff with iwconfig wlan0 whatever then you just dhcpcd wlan0 :) |
Piki | when i did the netinstall and selected all the networking stuff, dhcpcd and dhclient were nowhere |
Piki | MutantTurkey, i need the firmware for my card before i can use iwconfig |
MutantTurkey | Piki: all included |
MutantTurkey | just modprobe that :) |
MutantTurkey | like i said, you need to be competent linux user |
Piki | i am competent, i did a ls on /bin /sbin /usr/bin /usr/sbin, no dhcpcd or dhclient |
Piki | and i know for fact i told it to install all of the net stuff |
Piki | so i just couldn't connect |
Strangelv | ::: The EtherPad.com servers have now been shut down, according to the timetable announced previously. |
Piki | all i found were if* stuff |
Strangelv | "so much for finding documentation on the site |
MutantTurkey | lol anyway, same problems with debian and such. netinstall over wifi |
MutantTurkey | Strangelv: i know D: |
Piki | i did the netinstall via ethernet |
MutantTurkey | then no problems? |
MutantTurkey | rule 1) wiki :D rule 2) wiki :D rule 3) google rule 4) wiki rule 5) irc rule 6) mailing list |
Strangelv | archive.org is down |
Strangelv | "or at least is'nt working or is overloaded |
Piki | MutantTurkey, yeah, dhcp was disabled. netinstall connected, but the installed couldn't |
MutantTurkey | weird |
MutantTurkey | well if you try it again ask me |
MutantTurkey | yo. I am going to make a cmake page on the itherpad ok? |
Piki | i think i'll stick to what works. if it ain't broke, don't fix it |
MutantTurkey | Piki: ok :) just putting out the offer |
*Strangelv finds a YouTube video that says that something should happen when he clicks on the paperclip. | |
Piki | Strangelv, ? |
Strangelv | I'm guessing at this point that the feature I need isn't wokring |
Strangelv | "Anyone want an email with 15 PNGs? |
Strangelv | "Or maybe I'll stumble through it whil eth emeeting is in progress... |
MutantTurkey | Piki: for the trinity etherpad we should make it all public-readonly |
MutantTurkey | so that way people can see but not write |
MutantTurkey | Strangelv: just wait till the meeting, for a good place to slap up images? imagebin.org |
Piki | MutantTurkey, i'm not an admin |
Piki | you'd have to ping kb9vqf or Xu_R for that |
MutantTurkey | Piki: http://trinity.etherpad.trinitydesktop.org/9 check it :) |
MutantTurkey | got that page up nice |
MutantTurkey | kgamma done :) |
MutantTurkey | samelian: I expect to have kdegraphics done by the end of the week |
samelian | nice |
MutantTurkey | yes |
MutantTurkey | what should i work on when i am done this? |
*Xu_R|School has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R|School: o/ |
Xu_R|School | heyo |
MutantTurkey | sup? |
Xu_R|School | programming class >_< |
MutantTurkey | nice |
MutantTurkey | samelian:CMAKE file says this kviewparticondir = $(kde_datadir)/kviewerpart/icons |
MutantTurkey | kviewparticon_ICON = AUTO |
MutantTurkey | do i just install all the image files into ${DATA_INSTALL_DIR}/kviewpart/icons? with the install() function? |
MutantTurkey | Strangelv: have you come up with a logo idea? |
samelian | MutantTurkey: tde_install_icons( DESTINATION ${DATA_INSTALL_DIR}/kviewpart/icons ) |
MutantTurkey | ok thanks |
*Anixx-suse has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | samelian: Any progress on the kdebase Xaccess cmake bug? |
samelian | kb9vqf: actually I cannot figure out who generate Xaccess |
kb9vqf | samelian: Hang on |
MutantTurkey | isn't Xaccess typically generated by X? |
kb9vqf | we generate a "default" Xaccess |
kb9vqf | Let me get the command |
MutantTurkey | oh ok |
kb9vqf | samelian: $(PERL) -w $(srcdir)/confproc.pl $(srcdir)/config.def $@ |
samelian | are you sure? |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | look in config.def |
kb9vqf | Also see kdebase/kdm/Makefile.am |
samelian | because I use confproc in cmake, but there is no Xaccess in build tree |
samelian | config.ci: $(srcdir)/config.def $(srcdir)/confproc.pl |
samelian | $(PERL) -w $(srcdir)/confproc.pl $(srcdir)/config.def $@ |
samelian | it generate config.ci, not Xaccess |
kb9vqf | Hmmm |
kb9vqf | I know it has to be related to config.def |
kb9vqf | as that is the only place that Xaccess is mentioned |
kb9vqf | Let me look in an automake-built tree |
kb9vqf | samelian: Hmmm, I do not see that file anywhere |
kb9vqf | I'm puzzled |
samelian | me either :) |
kb9vqf | I wonder if Debian did something sneaky |
kb9vqf | samelian: One more question |
kb9vqf | In Automake I used to do this: --with-kdm-pam=kdm-trinity |
kb9vqf | How can I do that with CMake? |
samelian | hang on |
MutantTurkey | kviewshell done |
Anixx-suse | samelian: hi sergei |
samelian | kb9vqf: I think -DKDM_PAM_SERVICE=kdm-trinity |
samelian | Anixx-suse: hello |
kb9vqf | Oh, OK |
Anixx-suse | samelian: i checked the behavior of kcontrol in 11.3 and it seems that the behavior is exactly the same as after your patch on 11.4 |
Anixx-suse | samelian: so your patch completely restores what we had under previous release |
samelian | is not crashing but, but display wrong? |
Anixx-suse | samelian: the problem was probably with the zlib change: it's new version crashes when receives an empty pointer |
Anixx-suse | samelian: yes |
samelian | Anixx-suse: this is my guess too |
Anixx-suse | samelian: on 11.3 it indeed also displays the previews wrong for those themes which lack the three basic icons |
kb9vqf | samelian: I don't see a KDM_PAM_SERVICE variable in CMake anywhere |
samelian | me neither, wait, I searching for it |
Anixx-suse | samelian: is looked into the code and it seems is just assumes that the files are there |
samelian | yes |
kb9vqf | samelian: I need support for the following old Automake variables: --with-kcp-pam=kcheckpass-trinity --with-kdm-pam=kdm-trinity --with-kss-pam=kscreensaver-trinity --with-usbids=/usr/share/misc/usb.ids |
kb9vqf | :) |
samelian | no problem |
samelian | seems that KDM_PAM_SERVICE is hardwired right now |
Anixx-suse | Anixx-suse: i think a better solution should in a case when the files are absent display a standard "error" icon from the default theme |
kb9vqf | Anixx-suse: Yes |
kb9vqf | In fact we already have one |
kb9vqf | It's a broken page |
kb9vqf | icon |
samelian | for the rest we have: KCHECKPASS_PAM_SERVICE, KSCREENSAVER_PAM_SERVICE and WITH_USBIDS |
kb9vqf | samelian: OK, so KCHECKPASS_PAM_SERVICE=kdm-trinity, etc.? |
samelian | yes |
kb9vqf | Also, can you fix the KDM_PAM_SERVICE hardwiring? |
samelian | yes |
kb9vqf | thanks :) |
kb9vqf | I'm still trying to hunt down Xaccess |
samelian | ok |
Anixx-suse | samelian: also robert submitted the qt3 patch which he got from the wiki but the only difference with the previous patch was the version number constant. I did not accept because it is too minor issue to start a week-long rebuild of anything Qt3-related in OBS |
samelian | yes, this is the same change |
samelian | the only change |
Anixx-suse | samelian: i wonder what is with the other fixes about which you talked that fix the other kcontrol crashes |
kb9vqf | Anixx-suse: Maybe instead of a broken or error icon a default kcontrol-ish icon should be shown, such as contents.png |
kb9vqf | It implies that there is something behind the kcontrol module icon |
Anixx-suse | samelian: or the crashes were due to the vrong version? |
samelian | nope, is not related |
Anixx-suse | kb9vqf: maybe. either default icon or an icon, inherited from a theme to which the selected theme inherits |
kb9vqf | right |
Anixx-suse | samelian: ok |
Anixx-suse | samelian: so we have not a brocken qt3 patch, only reporting a wrong version |
samelian | yes |
Anixx-suse | samelian: ершы шы тще фт гкпуте срфтпу ерут |
Anixx-suse | samelian: this is not an urgent change then |
samelian | actually patched qt is needed only for trinity, for kde 3.5.10 is useless |
Anixx-suse | samelian: yes. but Robert builds Trinity in OBS, and uses qt3 |
samelian | ah, i see |
samelian | ok then |
samelian | the old patch it's ok as well |
MutantTurkey | Anixx-suse: what is your relation to this project? I don't think we've met |
Anixx-suse | samelian: so the patch is there so hem not to build it separately and also for binary compatibility between KDE3 and Trinity |
samelian | yes |
kb9vqf | Hey all, look what a kind supporter Emailed me: http://jehurst.wordpress.com/2011/03/16/remarkable-open-source-project-that-cares/ |
kb9vqf | :) |
Anixx-suse | MutantTurkey: and also for the ability to run Trinity apps on the vanilla openSUSE release if qt3 will not be removed from the next release |
Anixx-suse | MutantTurkey: i am a KDE3 maintainer in openSUSE |
MutantTurkey | oh ok |
MutantTurkey | and you guys are looking to switch to trinity? |
samelian | kb9vqf: KDM_PAM_SERVICE is not hardwired anymore |
kb9vqf | OK |
samelian | i did not check it, I hope it works |
kb9vqf | Thanks |
kb9vqf | Hehe |
kb9vqf | I'll yell and scream if it doesn't ;-) |
samelian | haha, sure |
Anixx-suse | MutantTurkey:Robert currently tries to build Trinity in OBS. |
MutantTurkey | OBS? |
Anixx-suse | MutantTurkey: OpenSUSE build service |
MutantTurkey | oh okay. |
MutantTurkey | Anixx-suse: thanks for the info :) now i understand |
Anixx-suse | MutantTurkey: we have KDE3 currently in fully working state |
Anixx-suse | MutantTurkey: so no urgent need for transition to trinity. |
MutantTurkey | Anixx-suse: make sense |
Anixx-suse | MutantTurkey: we also have more KDE3/Qt3 software than in any other KDE3 repository |
MutantTurkey | I see |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: made a nice little comment on that post, thanking him basically, telling him how we are hard at work, etc :) |
kb9vqf | Great |
kb9vqf | I also invited him to the mailing lists |
kb9vqf | after thanking him, etc. |
MutantTurkey | good good |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: Are you sure you want the etherpads to be editable by anonymous guests? |
kb9vqf | I can definitely understand read privileges |
kb9vqf | But I am not sure about write |
Anixx-suse | I also heared that kde3 file chooser compatibility was recently repaired in Libre Office. now rebuilding it to test |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: no write, just read is a good idea. |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: hm? they're all read-only |
kb9vqf | Noe http://trinity.etherpad.trinitydesktop.org/5 |
kb9vqf | *Nope |
MutantTurkey | also kb9vqf: http://api.kde.org/3.5-api/ do you think we should save this before they drop it? |
Xu_R | oh, oops. |
Xu_R | My bad :P |
kb9vqf | Yes we should |
kb9vqf | I'll mirror it |
MutantTurkey | ok. |
kb9vqf | Although, a lot of what's there is already on the Trinity API page |
Anixx-suse | Xu_R: robert it seems that the version change was the only difference in the patch you see |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: I already have a mirror of that |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: hmmm ok. |
MutantTurkey | Oh sorry didn't know :p |
kb9vqf | If it goes down I'll throw up my version |
MutantTurkey | my mistake |
kb9vqf | I would be more worried about the docbase stuff |
kb9vqf | How to articles, etc. |
MutantTurkey | right. |
kb9vqf | Link? |
Xu_R | Anixx-suse: should I just resubmit then? |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: actually, PUBLIC and PUBLIC-READONLY is right |
kb9vqf | Are you sure? |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: yea, just tested |
MutantTurkey | ok, does anyone know about kvsprefs.h? |
kb9vqf | Yes, now it is working |
MutantTurkey | if that even exists anymore? |
kb9vqf | It was letting me in before |
Anixx-suse | Xu_R: better make the changes as we discussed: qt-3.3.8b plus a patch rather than qt-3.3.8c source plus qt-3.3.8.b source |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: were you logged in? :P |
MutantTurkey | oh wait nevermind, i am a fool. |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: Nope |
Xu_R | Anixx-suse: ok, will do. |
kb9vqf | Maybe something wasn't commited, who knows |
Anixx-suse | Xu_R: and also add the description of your changes in the changes file |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: yea, it's read-only. you can make a name, you can use the chatbox, but you can't mod the doc |
Anixx-suse | Xu_R: you can make it with osc -m "description" vc commnand |
Xu_R | Anixx-suse: I always do that for official SuSE packages |
MutantTurkey | I mean, not like the public will actually use this? |
MutantTurkey | this is pretty much for just us involved in the project right? |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: it's good to keep things open however. |
kb9vqf | Yes, open is good |
MutantTurkey | yeah thats my second thought |
MutantTurkey | :) ok cool |
Anixx-suse | Xu_R: qt3 is the official suse package |
Xu_R | Anixx-suse: Yes, I always use osc vc |
Anixx-suse | Xu_R: it is linked from Factory to the kde3 repository |
Anixx-suse | Xu_R: ok |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: btw, this is not working: http://trinity.etherpad.trinitydesktop.org/ep/search |
kb9vqf | Yes, I know |
kb9vqf | I don't know what it is supposed to do though :-/ |
MutantTurkey | where are the config options for etherpad? i feel like messing with it a bit |
Xu_R | without that, it makes hashtags and such useless |
MutantTurkey | I would like it to default full screen, seems totally pointless to not use all the space |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: it shows all the pads, it can sort them by hashtags, etc |
Xu_R | useful for organizing |
kb9vqf | Right, I gathered that |
MutantTurkey | yes, I don't understand the tags either D: |
kb9vqf | I just don't know why it is failing |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: There are not very many config options |
*jmb34234 has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | And they are very poorly documented |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: D: darnit. |
jmb34234 | good day all |
kb9vqf | I had to resort to manually editing the source code in many cases :-P |
MutantTurkey | hello jmb34234 |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: okay well I was hoping for that at least, but if we cannot change it, that is fine. |
Piki | hi jmb34234 |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: The source code is public on git |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: :( |
kb9vqf | If you feel like digging through it and you can tell me what to change.... :) |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: is that on google-code? ok i will look |
jmb34234 | wondering if I can get a question answered... installing trinity on debian squeeze, and I've noticed that it comes with a bunch of software preinstalled that I won't necessarly use (building a kiosk).. is there a way to install a more base version? I'm apt getting desktop-base-trinity kde-trinity as per instructions |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: no, on github https://github.com/ether/pad/ |
Xu_R | I mean MutantTurkey: ^ |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: etherpad documentation is here: http://doc.etherpad.org |
kb9vqf | jmb34234: you would have to manually select the modules you want |
Xu_R | but it's... down T_T |
MutantTurkey | oh ok |
kb9vqf | jmb34234: If you have an X environment, synaptic would be great |
jmb34234 | @kb9vqf: u mean, you mean remove them after the install |
kb9vqf | No, I mean before installation |
kb9vqf | Just search for -trinity |
kb9vqf | That is, don't run the apt-get install desktop-base-trinity kde-trinity command |
kb9vqf | Instead, go into synaptic and select the Trinity modules you want |
Piki | kb9vqf, yeah, i was thinking that you should create a desktop-minimum-trinity meta package with just the bare bones packages pulled in |
kb9vqf | Probably |
MutantTurkey | Piki: that is a good idea. |
kb9vqf | Let's put that on a to-do list somewhere |
MutantTurkey | someone throw that on the etherpad |
kb9vqf | Right now I have my hands full :-/ |
jmb34234 | Piki: good idea with regards to the meta package |
Xu_R | done |
jmb34234 | : |
jmb34234 | :) |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: sweet |
jmb34234 | @kb9vqf: I'll go in and do it manually |
Piki | we should get the etherpad from the channel topic copied over to the trinitydesktop.org etherpad |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | Hang on |
MutantTurkey | ok |
MutantTurkey | jmb34234: thank you for raising that to our attention. |
MutantTurkey | now we can go fix it so no one else has the same problem :) |
kb9vqf | Xu_R What is the correct etherpad for the topic? |
jmb34234 | MutantTurkey: i think it would be helpful... personally, I always pick and choose the things I want and since most of us customize things to our own liking then starting out with a base install is always nice.. or at least having the option is nice :) |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: have yet to move it over, hold on. will do in a moment |
kb9vqf | ok, poke me with the link |
Piki | wtf? the walmart site is reporting my pay in euros and i've never been outside the usa lol |
MutantTurkey | jmb34234: that is the whole point of trinity, customization :) |
jmb34234 | thanks for the help guys, much appreciated! |
MutantTurkey | anytime! |
*jmb34234 has left #trinity-desktop | |
Piki | jmb34234, any help, come back here or post on the mailing list :-) |
Piki | missed him |
MutantTurkey | darn. |
MutantTurkey | well good work anyway. another happy user, who feels empowered, that he got instant feedback, and accomplished something, had a voice, had a say. |
MutantTurkey | that is important |
Xu_R | ping kb9vqf http://trinity.etherpad.trinitydesktop.org/11 |
MutantTurkey | consider changing those urls to bit.ly links? |
Xu_R | ~sigh~ I'm fixing permissions on security now... |
MutantTurkey | the topic already ridiculously long |
kb9vqf | well, I dunno |
kb9vqf | topic length *shouldn't* be a problem |
kb9vqf | although I could change the collab url to a bit.ly |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: hey, this might say why etherpad.org is down: |
Xu_R | DNS Issues We are currently moving DNS from an old (unreliable) provider to a shiny new one that is super reliable. doc.etherpad.org and our email is currently broken. |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: yeah, not our main url, but the mailing list and etherpad. |
kb9vqf | Better? |
MutantTurkey | much :) |
kb9vqf | If this works out we should host our own bit.ly-like service |
kb9vqf | To shorten them even more |
MutantTurkey | that is easy todo i think |
kb9vqf | Yeah, shouldn't be too bad |
kb9vqf | I dunno |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: that's easy to setup :) there are so many projects that can do that nowadays :P |
MutantTurkey | now that we are looking at this topic, maybe get rid of the mailing list bit |
kb9vqf | Np |
kb9vqf | *No |
kb9vqf | Mailing lists are important |
MutantTurkey | no i ment |
MutantTurkey | "they will be more active thatn the this channel" |
kb9vqf | Oh |
kb9vqf | Well, it seems that that can indeed go now :) |
kb9vqf | Lots of people are here |
kb9vqf | I think we also have at least one person here through the whole day, correct? |
MutantTurkey | yes i believe |
kb9vqf | ok |
MutantTurkey | maybe a small gap. |
MutantTurkey | much better |
*kb9vqf notes his imput voltage is now holding at 127V (!) | |
kb9vqf | *input |
MutantTurkey | is that good or bad? D: |
kb9vqf | Nominal is 120V |
kb9vqf | So not exactly good |
MutantTurkey | S: |
kb9vqf | Seems to happen whenever the weather gets "nice" around here |
MutantTurkey | weird |
kb9vqf | Probably people downstream cranking up their A/C |
MutantTurkey | yes that would make sense |
MutantTurkey | we don't heat or ac much at my house. I wait till my mom gets home around 5/6 if she wants to she turns the heating on, I am usually pretty comfortable around 50/60 with a jacket on. |
kb9vqf | yeah |
kb9vqf | the only reason I need to use the A/C more is to keep the computer cluster cool |
kb9vqf | Winter is great :) |
kb9vqf | Free heat |
MutantTurkey | how much space does that take up |
kb9vqf | A lot |
MutantTurkey | I agree for winter, my computer runs at like >20C :) |
MutantTurkey | a room full? |
kb9vqf | Easily |
kb9vqf | Anyway, back on topic.... :) |
MutantTurkey | :p |
kb9vqf | I imagine other people on this channel couldn't care less ;-) |
*kb9vqf wishes he knew how Xaccess was generated | |
kb9vqf | I can't seem to find the magic command |
Piki | we should see about who wants what color on the etherpad |
Xu_R | Piki: the colours are randomly chosesn. |
Piki | try to space ourselves out for the colorblind with the lcds :-) |
kb9vqf | I'm dark green |
kb9vqf | I'm trying to keep that consistent across all pads |
MutantTurkey | I frankly don't care. but i am dark blue i think |
Xu_R | lol. well, they're randomly chosen - feel free to change as long as it doesn't conflict. |
MutantTurkey | we need to see if we can keep that constant, then assign them. |
kb9vqf | Well, it makes it easier to read if they are consistent |
kb9vqf | That's the only reason I care |
MutantTurkey | as well as have that as headers or something at the top of the page |
Xu_R | true |
MutantTurkey | who's name is who's |
Piki | Xu_R, i don't think it's checking for duplicates :-) |
kb9vqf | No, it doesn't check for dupes |
Xu_R | Piki: I know. :-\ |
MutantTurkey | also, does etherpad autosave? |
Piki | i agree with MutantTurkey, have our colors at the top |
Piki | maybe just list our names at the top |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: yes it does |
MutantTurkey | at the very top |
Piki | MutantTurkey, i don't think so, or at least it isn't for me |
MutantTurkey | before anytyhing |
Xu_R | it always autosaves |
MutantTurkey | D: i don't think so either |
MutantTurkey | maybe though |
Piki | Xu_R, it hasn't for me, it makes me save manually |
Xu_R | when the last person leaves the pad, it creates a revision |
Piki | i had it sitting for 10 minutes |
Xu_R | Piki: it did, look at time slider. xD |
Piki | and it didnt' save |
Xu_R | every keystroke creates a subrevision :P |
Xu_R | and then when the last person leaves the pad, it creates a revision |
Piki | subrevision? i've only seen revisions |
MutantTurkey | eg: http://trinity.etherpad.trinitydesktop.org/9 just do that. |
MutantTurkey | see at the top? lets keep that formatting consistant |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: I'll add it to the default header |
kb9vqf | samelian: FOUND IT |
kb9vqf | install-data-local: genkdmconf |
kb9vqf | ./genkdmconf --in $(DESTDIR)$(kde_confdir)/kdm --no-in-notice --face-src $(srcdir)/pics $(GENKDMCONF_FLAGS) |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: nice. |
kb9vqf | That was buried and VERY hard to find :-P |
kb9vqf | samelian: It's in kdebase/kdm/kfrontend/Makefile.am |
kb9vqf | Think you can fix CMake now? :-) |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: wow. that is deep. |
kb9vqf | Hehe |
kb9vqf | Believe it or not that's a typical debug session for me |
kb9vqf | :-P |
kb9vqf | some of the internals are just plain nasty |
Xu_R | :( kde3 source code must be really disgusting to work with |
kb9vqf | It's not that bad, as long as you stay away from the core |
kb9vqf | The core here includes the internals of Qt, TQt, kdelibs, and kdebase |
kb9vqf | the "foundation" if you will |
MutantTurkey | maybe that is something we would also work on eventually. |
MutantTurkey | attracting developers is just as important as attracting users. |
kb9vqf | I honestly don't think much can be done about it |
MutantTurkey | D: ok. |
kb9vqf | These are the layers which interface with Xorg, PAM, udev, etc. |
kb9vqf | Those libraries do not have "nice" APIs |
MutantTurkey | I was speaking about structures and such. |
kb9vqf | s/udev/HAL/g |
MutantTurkey | code gets messy, but keeping it organized is important as well |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | It is fairly well organized as-is |
MutantTurkey | oh ok |
*Anixx-suse has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | Dumping Automake will get rid of a lot of the messy nastiness |
Anixx-suse | May be interesting: http://storage7.static.itmages.ru/i/11/0316/h_1300303948_9181c4ea0c.png |
kb9vqf | how so? |
Xu_R | Anixx-suse: D: eek |
Anixx-suse | It's kde2 running on openSUSE 11.4 |
Xu_R | it's soo oldish lol |
Anixx-suse | KDE2 of 64-bit build |
kb9vqf | ah |
kb9vqf | ughh |
MutantTurkey | hahaha :p |
kb9vqf | Though still looks better than KDE4 :-P |
MutantTurkey | it is funny how the style has changed so much |
MutantTurkey | it looks totally corny now, but before people loved that. :p |
kb9vqf | It looks old |
kb9vqf | Like motif |
kb9vqf | CDE |
kb9vqf | etc. |
Anixx-suse | kb9vqf: yes. and there were even true-tranparent menues (unlike KDE3) |
kb9vqf | Personally I always hated KDE2 |
kb9vqf | Tried it back in the late 1990s |
kb9vqf | Went right back to Windows for two releases |
kb9vqf | (2000/XP) |
kb9vqf | Seemed way too limited |
Anixx-suse | MutantTurkey: in is a Marble theme. textured controls are impossible in Qt3 and later |
Anixx-suse | MutantTurkey: you could also detach any meny and move where you want |
kb9vqf | Qt dropping functionality? Really? :-P |
Anixx-suse | kb9vqf: never seen it in any qt>2 app |
kb9vqf | I know |
kb9vqf | I should have used </sarcasm> |
MutantTurkey | :p |
samelian | kb9vqf: actually in cmake we have already install( CODE "execute_process( COMMAND ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/genkdmconf --in \$ENV{DESTDIR}${CONFIG_INSTALL_DIR}/kdm --no-in-notice --face-src ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/pics ${GENKDMCONF_FLAGS} )" ) |
Anixx-suse | kb9vqf: possibly this functionality was made after Internet Explorer 3 who also had textured controls. As MS dropped it also did Qt team |
kb9vqf | samelian: Oh, OK |
*kb9vqf goes to dig deeper | |
samelian | but Xaccess is not generated |
kb9vqf | samelian: Did you generate config.ci before? |
samelian | yes |
samelian | genkdmconf is ran at install stage |
kb9vqf | config.ci must be generated, then genkdmconf must be built, then it must be run |
kb9vqf | That *should* be creating the Xaccess file |
samelian | without config.ci, the sources aren't compilable at all |
kb9vqf | hmm |
kb9vqf | I don't get it :-/ |
samelian | I think is something in genkdmconf |
samelian | I will check the sources |
kb9vqf | I'll check the build system again |
kb9vqf | samelian: When I run "make install" I do not see genkdmconf execute |
MutantTurkey | samelian: hmmm, error building kviewshell: http://ix.io/1yp |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: I think that header is actually a bit to much :p |
MutantTurkey | I mean, yes it is all fine, but I'd rather just see what the page is about ,rather than notices about rules, permissions etc :p |
kb9vqf | How about putting the rules, etc. on a dedicated pad |
kb9vqf | Then just having a simple READ THIS FIRST <link> |
Xu_R | I shortened it a bit :) |
MutantTurkey | :) good |
MutantTurkey | samelian: I can't seem to built it at all, like actual code errors rather than building errors |
samelian | i'm not sure what is KVSPrefs |
MutantTurkey | yes me neither. it is a header file though kvsprefs.h |
MutantTurkey | i do not know c++ though so i have no idea |
samelian | I think is generated from kvsprefs.kcfgc |
MutantTurkey | yes, but what does the error mean? |
samelian | not sure, show me kvsprefs.h |
MutantTurkey | oh here is the problem, |
MutantTurkey | it is no longer named kvsprefs, but is now named prefs.cpp |
MutantTurkey | so i changed it, is that the problem? |
samelian | must be kvsprefs.h |
MutantTurkey | oh ok |
MutantTurkey | nop it is prefs.h and prefs.kcfgc |
MutantTurkey | just checked. |
samelian | check again |
samelian | there is kvsprefs.kcfgc as well |
MutantTurkey | no there is not |
MutantTurkey | oh wait i am sorry, there is in kviewshell/ |
samelian | serghei@lenovo ~/projects/trinity/kdegraphics $ find -name kvsprefs.kcfgc |
samelian | ./kviewshell/kvsprefs.kcfgc |
MutantTurkey | yes. |
MutantTurkey | so what is the problem then? I have included ${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/kviewshell |
samelian | kviewshell is build already? |
samelian | built* |
MutantTurkey | yes. |
MutantTurkey | the only problem now is the plugin for djvu |
samelian | and kvsprefs.h really exists? |
MutantTurkey | yes |
MutantTurkey | just checked |
samelian | ok, show me it |
MutantTurkey | ok |
MutantTurkey | http://ix.io/1yg |
samelian | what is this? :) |
samelian | paste it again |
MutantTurkey | haha weird hold on |
MutantTurkey | no idea what happened |
MutantTurkey | http://ix.io/1yq |
samelian | seems ok to me |
MutantTurkey | D: |
samelian | check if you have multiple "kvsprefs.h" |
MutantTurkey | nop. used find only found 1 |
MutantTurkey | also now libdjvu/ is having much problems. |
MutantTurkey | which is weird, it should probably be built first, but it doesn't? |
kb9vqf | samelian: Still tracing, don't know if it helps but kdm.options, Xaccess, and Xwilling are the only files that are not generated |
samelian | strange, try to cleanup build tree and try again |
MutantTurkey | samelian: OK. i have :p like twice. |
samelian | kb9vqf: I will try to rebuild kdm and I will check if genkdmconf is really executed |
kb9vqf | samelian: It looks like it is |
kb9vqf | The README file in /etc/trinity/kdm does not list Xaccess and Xwilling |
kb9vqf | When I build under Automake it does |
samelian | aha |
samelian | maybe genkdmconf is not executed in right directory |
samelian | we should try to run genkdmconf manually |
kb9vqf | and it is giving a default/failsafe configuration? makes sense |
kb9vqf | samelian: #ifdef XDMCP |
kb9vqf | :) |
kb9vqf | There's the problem |
samelian | hmm |
kb9vqf | XDMCP is not defined |
samelian | what is XDMCP? |
kb9vqf | Look in kdebase/kdm/kfrontend/genkdmconf.c |
MutantTurkey | its a protcol |
kb9vqf | Line 2455 |
samelian | yes |
samelian | I think we should have -DWITH_XDMCP=ON, right? |
MutantTurkey | samelian: all the same errors D: |
kb9vqf | samelian: Yes |
kb9vqf | samelian: But that variable is not in CMakeLists.txt |
kb9vqf | Could you add it? |
samelian | sure |
kb9vqf | thanks |
samelian | i'm not sure if i need to check for smth |
kb9vqf | look in the kdebase configure.in.in |
kb9vqf | It's there |
kb9vqf | search for xdmcp |
samelian | fortunately, there is pkgconfig support for xdmcp |
kb9vqf | that makes it a lot easier :) |
samelian | yep |
kb9vqf | see, Debian is good for something after all ;-) |
kb9vqf | Think of all the obscure errors we are fixing now as a result of the Debian build failures |
samelian | hehe |
Piki | we could probably get them on other distros. after all, you've got a newbie at compiling and packaging here :-P |
Piki | surely something will come up ;-) |
kb9vqf | yeah |
kb9vqf | the Debian package files are explicitly searching for most of the Trinity files |
kb9vqf | so they will error at the slightest deviation from a complete installation |
kb9vqf | it's a pain on the packaging end, but I think well worth it |
Piki | rpmbuild complains if it has a binary that isn't in the filelists |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | so the same setup then |
Piki | so we'd find all the files anyway |
*kb9vqf (purposefully) knows nothing about RPM | |
Piki | and it complains when make complains |
kb9vqf | One messy packaging system is quite enough for my small brain ;-) |
Piki | kb9vqf, i've been trying to understand the deb package scripts for two years without success, i've known the basics of rpm for three |
MutantTurkey | (sorry for selling archlinux so much) but we have a great, very clean, simple packaging system! |
kb9vqf | hehe |
kb9vqf | so we're opposites then |
kb9vqf | I feel the same way about the RPM system |
kb9vqf | that's good though |
kb9vqf | diversity in this case is a very good thing |
Piki | rpm is basically a set of macros for each specific step of the process, plus the package info, and the steps are determined by the build process: create buildroot and extract source, compile with autotools/cmake/etc, then list files according to package |
*kb9vqf is starting to get concerned--one phase is at 127V and the other is nearing 120V | |
kb9vqf | $#!% ComEd |
MutantTurkey | what is the max? |
kb9vqf | the phase-phase differential should never be that high |
Piki | and each script (spec file) generally will be one package plus a package for devel headers and maybe static libs depending on the distro, and maybe splitting a single source (e.g. kdepim) into other packages (e.g. kmail, kontact, etc) |
MutantTurkey | Piki: that is not so far from archlinux then |
MutantTurkey | it is just a script also |
Piki | once our spec is written, it's passed to rpmbuild, which follows the script to create the package |
MutantTurkey | PKGBUILD defines variables and arrays, then makepkg builds it based onthe pkgbuild |
*Xu_R|TDE has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Xu_R|TDE | kb9vqf: about kickoff... you're right, it is embedded in a ui file. fk lol. http://websvn.kde.org/*checkout*/branches/work/suse_kickoff_qstyle/README.Kickoff |
*joeytwiddle has joined #trinity-desktop | |
joeytwiddle | KDE3 forever! |
Xu_R|TDE | lol |
MutantTurkey | joeytwiddle: haha yes! |
MutantTurkey | long live kde3 |
Xu_R | by the way, guys, here is not the place to have packaging debates or advertise distros. Thanks. |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R, is that in the rule book? ok thanks please add it since obviously everything you say goes. |
MutantTurkey | :) |
Xu_R | lol |
Xu_R | no, that's kb9vqf's job to do that. |
Xu_R | xD |
MutantTurkey | lol :p |
samelian | kb9vqf: done |
samelian | i'm not sure why kdm do not require -lXdmcp |
samelian | check it and tell me if it's ok |
*field_it has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | compiling now |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: People can discuss packaging of Trinity if they want to |
kb9vqf | But no, I do not want distro wars on this channel |
samelian | kb9vqf: I forgot to set GENKDMCONF_FLAGS |
samelian | I will fix it now |
kb9vqf | ok |
samelian | done |
kb9vqf | ok |
samelian | seems that Xaccess is installed, finally |
*kb9vqf has to wait 4 minutes for the mirror to sync | |
kb9vqf | then I'll fire a rebuild |
*techie26 has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | samelian: I am trying to find kviewshell-static from kfax, I have included link_directories: ${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/kviewshell/ and LINK: kviewshell-static. I do not understand why it cannot find it |
MutantTurkey | any ideas? |
samelian | linking targets is not related to link_directories |
samelian | kviewshell-static target is really exists? |
MutantTurkey | yes |
MutantTurkey | in kviewshell/ |
samelian | show me error |
MutantTurkey | i built it and it is there as far as i can tell D: |
MutantTurkey | there only error is /usr/bin/ld cannot find -lkviewshell-static |
samelian | are you sure that is static? |
samelian | maybe is -shared |
MutantTurkey | STATIC_PIC |
MutantTurkey | let me try again hold on. make sure it is build |
samelian | tde_add_library( kviewshell STATIC_PIC ? |
MutantTurkey | yes |
MutantTurkey | AUTOMOC |
MutantTurkey | kviewshell STATIC_PIC automoc then sources etc. |
samelian | show me the cmake for kviewshell and for kfax |
MutantTurkey | hold on give me a second |
MutantTurkey | samelian: ok. sorry i fixed the problem, was a typo :p |
samelian | hehe, this was my guess :) |
samelian | for this reason I asked for cmake files |
MutantTurkey | :) |
*Anixx-suse has joined #trinity-desktop | |
*Xu_R|TDE|Away is away: Gone away for now | |
dtmaster | hi.. i will install kdeadmin.. i have TQt installes in /opt/qt/include/tqt and TQt.pc in /opt/qt/lib/pkgconfig.. but configure TQt not found. |
samelian | set PKG_CONFIG_PATH to /opt/qt/lib/pkgconfig |
dtmaster | i have set the path before i installed arts, kdelibs and kdebase.. |
samelian | which path? |
dtmaster | echo $PKG_CONFIG_PATH say: /opt/qt/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/X11R7/lib/pkgconfig:/opt/trinity/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig |
dtmaster | but configure TQt not found |
samelian | i don't undestand |
samelian | you use cmake or autotools? |
dtmaster | autotools.. the svn version from kdeadmin dont have a CmakeList.txt |
samelian | ah |
samelian | kdeadmin is not ported yet |
Piki | dtmaster, what version of autotools? new versions don't work with trinity |
dtmaster | yes new version. but i will not for one or two pakages autottols downgraden and when finish upgraden. |
dtmaster | -t+o |
dtmaster | my complete linux from scratch is make with newer autotools.. |
Piki | dtmaster, that might cause a problem, you will have to wait for cmake |
Piki | if you want to help with cmake, samelian is the cmake expert, he can help you learn :-) |
dtmaster | hm.. this is not good.. :( then i become my new computer not finish.. |
Piki | reminder: meeting in one hour in #trinity-desktop-meeting |

kb9vqf | samelian: cp: cannot stat `./debian/tmp/opt/trinity/share/doc/kde/HTML/en/khelpcenter/glossary/checkxrefs': No such file or directory |
kb9vqf | Does CMake build the glossary? |
samelian | i think, no |
samelian | I don't pay too much attention for docs |
kb9vqf | can you fix it? |
samelian | i will try |
kb9vqf | khelpcenter is rather important :) |
kb9vqf | thanks |
*Space_Man has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: hehe, I just made up a bad pun for tqtinterface. :P |
kb9vqf | hmmm? |
Xu_R | thinking about how Qt is supposed to be called "cu/te" |
Xu_R | TQt is maybe "too cute"? XD |
kb9vqf | :D |
samelian | Xu_R: you have too much spare time :) |
Xu_R | samelian: lol, actually, i'm restructuring Trinity RPM spec files in SVN now, so... maybe ;) |
kb9vqf | samelian: Poke me when/if you have the khelpcenter fixed |
kb9vqf | thanks :) |
samelian | is fixed, I just must to check it |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | then when you have it in SVN and checked :) |
samelian | sure |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: I may not be able to make it to the meeting tonight |
kb9vqf | Trinity took up too much of my day today :( |
kb9vqf | Right over the dinner hour here |
kb9vqf | the meeting is, that is |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: it's ok, the meetbot will log everything :) |
samelian | what is the purpose of meeting, actually? |
samelian | you have already meeting there, all day :) |
kb9vqf | I think it is for the non-core team members to decide what they want to do ;-) |
Xu_R | samelian: going over everything - I rather kb9vqf be there to comment too, though :-\ |
kb9vqf | samelian and I know what we need to do already :) |
samelian | hehe, for sure |
kb9vqf | I'll see if I can pop in |
Xu_R | :P |
kb9vqf | I just can't commit the entire block of time |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: np |
Piki | samelian, think of it as a way to discuss with non-core team members what needs done and help to organize who is doing what |
*Strangelv needs to remember the questions he needs to ask. Before the meeting would be nice, but he's too early in startup mode | |
Strangelv | "Press poperclip to attach in Etherpad and nothing happens |
*kb9vqf knows about that | |
kb9vqf | Use the Wiki for now |
kb9vqf | attach files there, then link to them on the Etherpad |
Piki | Strangelv, you need the miracle of coffee :-) |
*kb9vqf goes for dinner | |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: ok, stop in when you have time :) |
kb9vqf | i'll idle in the meeting channel in case I can stop by later :-) |
Piki | kb9vqf, idling is bad, it pollutes the atmosphere :-) |
Piki | psh, another firefox failure, crashed without warning with no error displayed, second time today, and it keeps randomly lagging the whole of X, forces me to switch to VT to kill firefox-bin |
Xu_R | Meeting Started! Please head to #trinity-desktop-meeting |
samelian | kb9vqf: checkxrefs is installed |
*Strangelv sees that etherpad.org is still down and archive.org is again or still not working | |
Xu_R | samelian, Strangelv: We need you over in #trinity-desktop-meeting to contribute details... it'd be nice. |
Strangelv | "I'm there. I'm not the person to answer the next bug day question right now |
samelian | I'm just watching :) |
Xu_R | lol |
Piki | we need input ;-) if we don't know what you guys want, we can't do it |

Borg^Queen | I know, entering lurk mode |
Borg^Queen | bb in 15 mins |
Xu_R | Anixx-suse: if you have any ideas or suggestiosn for Trinity, head to #trinity-desktop-meeting and express there - we're *trying* to have a meeting :P |
Piki | lol, having the meeting would be nice |

kb9vqf | ok, going back to dinner (I originally got called back to the computer early due to a detected issue). I'll try to stop by again later tonight. |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: ^^^ |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: ok :) |
Borg^Queen | ok back what's been going on so far? |
Xu_R | Borg^Queen: join #trinity-desktop-meeting |
Xu_R | ok |
Xu_R | next topic: |
Xu_R | #topic distribution checklists |
Xu_R | oh shoot |
Xu_R | wrong channel -_- |
Piki | hey! only Piki is allowed to be absent minded! lol |
*scrat has joined #trinity-desktop | |
*Baho has joined #trinity-desktop | |
*Xu_R|TDE is back. | |
dtmaster | so.. i have installed two version of autoconf and autotmake. but configure not found TQt. pkg-config --list say: TQt - TQt - Interface and abstraction library for Qt and Trinity |
Xu_R | dtmaster: You cannot build half of Trinity with cmake and the other half with autotools |
samelian | currently i'm not sure that trinity is buildable by autotools |
Piki | with older versions, 3.5.12 should be, not sure about svn |
dtmaster | but kdeadmin have no cmakeList.txt. |
Piki | dtmaster, if you want to use svn, you can always help port to cmake :-) if you need help with that, samelian can guide you |
dtmaster | i can not C oder c++.. and my english is very bad. my english is from a google translater. when you have a german manual for cmake then i can help. |
Piki | you don't need to know c++ |
Piki | we can help clean up the english as you go |
dtmaster | can i build the packages from here with autotools? http://mirror.trinity.lv/releases/3.5.12/downloads.html |
Xu_R | dtmaster: yes |
dtmaster | thx. but i have installed arts, kdelibs and kdebase with cmake. all this new ? |
Piki | dtmaster, yes, 3.5.12 can be built with autotools, but an older version |
Piki | but i think you'll need to get rid of the stuff you did with cmake |
dtmaster | ok big thx.. |
dtmaster | i can not build.. configure not find TQt.. shit.. |
MutantTurkey | D: |
Piki | dtmaster, did you do tqtinterface first? |
dtmaster | tqt i have installed.. but with cmake.. this new installed? |
Piki | you have to do tqt with autotools |
MutantTurkey | Piki: I don't think so |
Piki | if you do everything else with autotools |
MutantTurkey | oh yes then |
dtmaster | ok.. i make all new.. |
Piki | MutantTurkey, oh? i though the whole thing has to be one or the other |
Xu_R | Piki is right - you need to do all one or all the other |
samelian | as far I know, there is no more support for autotools in tqt |
Piki | samelian, in 3.5.12? |
samelian | current |
Piki | he wants to try 3.5.12 because autotools and cmake can't be mixed |
Strangelv | Is there an agenda somewhere so I know what hapics appear in what order? |
*david has joined #trinity-desktop | |
david | ok What's new to build tonight? |
Guest11722 | Let me try and get my name fixed with nickserve... |
Strangelv | Not sure; there's a meeting going on in #trinity-desktop-meeting BTW |
Guest11722 | thanks, I'll take a look :) |
MutantTurkey | Guest11722: get in the damned meeting! |
MutantTurkey | we skipped some of your stuff |
MutantTurkey | so we will have to go back :) |
Guest11722 | on my way :) |
*Xu_R|TDE|Away is away: Gone away for now | |
Piki | new, you can identify to nickserv by typing: /msg nickserv id <yournick> <yourpass> |
Piki | replace <yournick> and <yourpass> accordingly to your nickserv account |
Piki | then type, /nick <yournick> |
Piki | again, replace yournick |
Piki | NEW, your account is under NEW? lol |
MutantTurkey | lol poor david |
dtmaster | what for a libtool version is need ? |
Piki | i'm not sure, but i think libtool doesn't matter, it's just automake and autoconf that need to be old |
dtmaster | tqtinterface with configure and make without errors. but make install give me a error.. |
Piki | dtmaster, go to http://pastebin.com/ and put your error there. when it gives you the link, put the link here so we can see it |
MutantTurkey | dtmaster: sorry for the little help :p we are all in a developer meeting |
Piki | we don't want the error here because it will kick you out if you put too much |
dtmaster | http://pastebin.com/kjWk2Bam |
dtmaster | No Problem MutantTurkey |
Piki | dtmaster, do you have qt4.2.0 installed? it looks like it's missing something from that |
dtmaster | no i have qt 3 installed with our patch |
samelian | this error happens when tqt is built with newer automake |
dtmaster | i build with autmake 1.10 |
Strangelv | Is there a CMake version of TQt yet? |
dtmaster | no |
MutantTurkey | tbottu: seen ToRka |
tbottu | I've never seen a 'ToRka', sorry. |
MutantTurkey | tbottu: seen TokRa |
tbottu | tokra was last seen 2 days, 7 hours, 21 minutes and 6 seconds ago, saying ':)' in #trinity-desktop. |
Piki | David_Rankin, if you want me to help you with xchat, switch to webirc (http://webchat.freenode.net) and restart xchat to the intro screen |
MutantTurkey | David_Rankin: good to see you on the IRC :) |
David_Rankin | Hey, I'm still me on this channel too:) |
MutantTurkey | good haha |
Piki | of course :-) |
David_Rankin | what is tokra |
Piki | it doesn't remove you unless you tell it to |
MutantTurkey | David_Rankin: yeah if you could get that svn stuff worked out that would be cool |
MutantTurkey | David_Rankin: a person |
David_Rankin | OK |
MutantTurkey | :) |
MutantTurkey | she's just not around lately |
Piki | one of our web designers, working with MutantTurkey on the new site |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R:excellent work on the meeting. |
David_Rankin | Seconded |
Xu_R | Thank you :) |
MutantTurkey | David_Rankin: Imho we are done the website, ToRka wants to add all this complex framework on it. |
MutantTurkey | I don't think we need it |
David_Rankin | KISS |
Piki | Xu_R, good job with meetbot :-) |
MutantTurkey | David_Rankin: exactly |
Xu_R | guys |
MutantTurkey | yeah meetbot is great. |
Xu_R | meeting minutes sent to the mailing list :D |
MutantTurkey | :) |
MutantTurkey | links working? |
Xu_R | no |
MutantTurkey | :[ |
Xu_R | but I have a local copy of it :) |
David_Rankin | The most complexity any site needs is just a bit of mysql for the stuff that needs to be in db format and just a touch of js |
MutantTurkey | :D nice |
Xu_R | cause this IS my bot :P |
*Strangelv looks back and discovers the meeting was ended without him getting to make his presentation | |
MutantTurkey | David_Rankin: yes we don't need that |
MutantTurkey | Strangelv: D: about what? |
MutantTurkey | sorry |
Strangelv | Mascot proposal |
MutantTurkey | shit i am very sorry we forgot. |
David_Rankin | Not a stupid dragon |
MutantTurkey | I was meaning to bring it up. |
MutantTurkey | Strangelv: do you have your image ideas on the pad? |
David_Rankin | A Phoenix - dies, but rises again from the ashes... |
MutantTurkey | David_Rankin: valid idea |
MutantTurkey | a Phoenix with a construction hat on! |
Strangelv | "I have linsks as I could'nt get the images to the pad |
MutantTurkey | (for beta versions) |
MutantTurkey | Strangelv: ok, just upload them to like imgur or imagebin and put the links to it on the etherpad |
*Strangelv : http://trinity.etherpad.trinitydesktop.org/8 | |
Strangelv | did that |
MutantTurkey | excllent |
Strangelv | wel,l most of them |
Strangelv | Not all, especialyl as Imagebin links are ephemeral |
David_Rankin | What about a dir layout on the new svn server -- will there be a disto folder with suse/deb/arch/mandy/etc.. |
David_Rankin | For PKGBUILDs/specs/etc.. |
MutantTurkey | David_Rankin: yes, i think there was |
MutantTurkey | Strangelv: what is L315? |
MutantTurkey | I love the penguin one and the mushroom |
David_Rankin | I have the account and I've logged in, but I'm just getting familiar with it. I have a bit of time to look into that and I'll post what I find to the etherpad |
MutantTurkey | ok. |
Strangelv | L315 is a compleetly obscure date code. |
MutantTurkey | ? |
David_Rankin | I'll grant the obscure part? |
Strangelv | "I needed to refer to it as something. I picked that as it's less likely to have people want to use whatever random name I'd pick to be teh final name |
MutantTurkey | oh ok. |
David_Rankin | I've always viewed mascots and version names as secondary -- but I have learned they are important for presentation and community acceptance, so kicking the idea around is well worth the effort. |
MutantTurkey | I have no opinion on anything specifically |
David_Rankin | Perhaps a new entry on the etherpad soliciting suggestions. |
MutantTurkey | I would just like it to be good and professional looking |
MutantTurkey | David_Rankin: excellent idea |
Xu_R | did everyone get the meeting minutes via email? |
MutantTurkey | yes sir |
Xu_R | awesome :D |
MutantTurkey | reading now |
Piki | yep |
David_Rankin | I got the account info - no minutes. |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: I like how you signed me up to keep working on the cmake docs :P |
Xu_R | :P |
Xu_R | samelian's suggestion |
MutantTurkey | I know :) |
MutantTurkey | it is because i am probably better at explaining things than him |
David_Rankin | You got kruler and kview going - that's better than I've done with crystal |
Xu_R | wow - 1 hour, 58 minutes, 48 seconds - that's how long the meeting was xD |
MutantTurkey | that was good though |
MutantTurkey | I am glad i did not miss it |
Piki | Xu_R, wait until you're a business man, some meetings will be ~30mins, while others will be upwards of 2+ hours :-D |
Xu_R | hehe :) |
David_Rankin | The CMake help is critical. I've spent a lot of time looking and trying, but as it applies to trinity and adding the tqt stuff makes the initial learning curve a bit more steep. |
Xu_R | I know the feeling |
David_Rankin | Once we can get more than calvin and samelian moving things to cmake -- things will really pick up |
David_Rankin | The grunt work can be left to folks like me while the difficult issues get the attention with those with talent :) |
MutantTurkey | David_Rankin: it is actually not so complicated :) |
MutantTurkey | i am a grunt still |
MutantTurkey | kruler is my guiding savior, i read that thing more than the bible. |
David_Rankin | I'm getting it sorted, It's just like Linux - you have to wrestle with it long enough to see it :) |
Xu_R | LoL |
Piki | + |
Piki | David_Rankin, linux is becoming easier though :-) |
MutantTurkey | here is how i do it: copy over the CMakeLists.txt from kruler, then look at the makefile.am (that details all information needed) then convert it to cmake stuff |
Borg^Queen | gn to all |
MutantTurkey | gn |
Piki | cya bor |
Piki | >; |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: are you really desperate to see the HTML format of our march meeting? |
David_Rankin | What we need it a mini-meeting on etherpad where those that are interest can just take a module (like kpdf) and work through converting it while samelian is there so we can all learn :) |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R:no :p |
MutantTurkey | David_Rankin: like a workshop |
MutantTurkey | class sort of thing |
David_Rankin | Yup |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: oh - I was going to show you all the stuff that will be synched |
MutantTurkey | sorry if i asked before, but David what timezone are you in? |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: oh if you've got it that'd be good |
David_Rankin | That would work, Just something that can move me off high-center so I can get rolling :) |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: build.lincomlinux.org:82/MeetBot/trinity-desktop-meeting/2011/trinity-desktop-meeting.2011-03-16-23.22.html |
MutantTurkey | thx |
David_Rankin | GMT +6 |
David_Rankin | +5 now |
MutantTurkey | where is that? south america? |
David_Rankin | Central Daylight Time |
MutantTurkey | oh so like ohio! |
Xu_R | David_Rankin: Singapore? |
David_Rankin | -5 oops |
Xu_R | oh. |
Xu_R | so same as kb9vqf |
David_Rankin | Yup |
MutantTurkey | where in the world is David_Rankin lol |
Xu_R | XD |
David_Rankin | Nacogdoches is just south of Tyler Tx |
MutantTurkey | Texas yeesh. |
MutantTurkey | well If i am ever in the neighborhood i will give you a call |
David_Rankin | ~ 150 mi. sse of Dallas |
David_Rankin | Great! |
MutantTurkey | :D |
*Xu_R|TDE is back. | |
MutantTurkey | what is the difference between Xu_R and Xu_R|TDE and all that jazz |
Xu_R | oh... |
Xu_R | yea, the TDE is the virtual machine |
Xu_R | with Trinity |
MutantTurkey | oh :p |
Xu_R | b/c sometimes I need to keep pasting output or such |
MutantTurkey | ah |
MutantTurkey | can you not use the | ? |
MutantTurkey | it is quite bothersome |
Xu_R | no. I like the | :-\ |
MutantTurkey | just Xu_R` or Xu_R1 or something |
MutantTurkey | oh okay :/ |
David_Rankin | What type of VM |
Xu_R | Virtualbox |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R:this is super great meeting html minutes |
MutantTurkey | i love it. |
MutantTurkey | In fact I love all of our new orginization |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: btw, the html version has the names |
Xu_R | if you click the names |
Xu_R | it'll take you to the exact spot in the log :) |
Piki | the extra Xu_R isn't so bad, it's the "/me is back" part that gets annoying, it's like having two notifications of the person being back -- the nick change and the /me |
Xu_R | yea, can't help that - Konversation >_< |
Piki | it can turn that off in your identity settings |
MutantTurkey | I just don't think you need to change your nick at all. |
Piki | my favorite is konversation, and i always keep that off |
MutantTurkey | irc is meant for idling! |
Xu_R | oh. well, i really don't use konversation lol |
MutantTurkey | what do we think about mascot ideas and such? |
Piki | MutantTurkey, some irc clients don't show when you're away, and people tend to get mad when they expect you to be there because of your nick and you're not there |
MutantTurkey | Piki: meh, those people are idiots |
MutantTurkey | I don't talk to idiots, like idiots, or associate with them. |
MutantTurkey | I avoid idiots at all costs. |
Xu_R | lol |
David_Rankin | +1 on the minutes - great job! |
Piki | yeah, but unfortunately we can't get rid of them if we expect more users :-( |
MutantTurkey | did you see the html David_Rankin? nicely orginized |
MutantTurkey | Piki: haha i know ;) i was just messing around |
David_Rankin | Amazing... |
MutantTurkey | David_Rankin: http://build.lincomlinux.org:82/MeetBot/trinity-desktop-meeting/2011/trinity-desktop-meeting.2011-03-16-23.22.html |
MutantTurkey | so excellent. |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: honestly i just hate it because i can't tab complete easily |
Piki | i try to avoid the idiots myself, but not always possible |
MutantTurkey | X-tab just brings up your two names then i have to hit more keys X: |
Xu_R | ah, I see. |
Piki | MutantTurkey, with the | ? works fine here |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: so are we doing monthly meetings? |
MutantTurkey | Piki: pidgin buddy |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: yes, monthly is the way to go |
MutantTurkey | ok. |
David_Rankin | I think they are the way to go |
MutantTurkey | yes i was suprised how many people showed up! |
MutantTurkey | 13/14? |
David_Rankin | Helps everyone sync up for at least that moment in time. |
Piki | MutantTurkey, then don't use pidgin :-) only good thing about it is the ui and that kopete in kde3 doesn't do file transfer :-) |
MutantTurkey | yeah. |
MutantTurkey | Piki: it has many advatages, and a few small disadvantages. I would rather not argue |
MutantTurkey | :) to tired. |
David_Rankin | I've only used xchat - what's better? |
MutantTurkey | David_Rankin: agreed. |
Piki | MutantTurkey, not trying to argue, just don't really like pidgin muc |
MutantTurkey | pidgin does every single freaking protocol known to mankind |
MutantTurkey | Piki: i know :) i do though so whatevs |
MutantTurkey | actually i just use it out of convience. |
Piki | David_Rankin, for kde, konversation is the best |
MutantTurkey | until something better comes along |
*Strangelv , on the mention of mascot,s isn't completely sure he has the 'Mr Potato Head' concept fully realized | |
MutantTurkey | I say irssi beats all |
MutantTurkey | Strangelv: I understand the concept, just now need to think of a good logo |
Piki | MutantTurkey, for cli, yes |
MutantTurkey | and my desktop is like 7-10 window/tabs open of cli |
*Strangelv is using Konversation because it was here | |
Piki | but most of us use guis, even if we have a terminal, which is kinda small for irc |
MutantTurkey | I don't :) |
Strangelv | Logo based on that mascot, or unrelated to the mascot, or other? Not liking the existing mascot based logo? |
Piki | that's why i say most of us :-) |
MutantTurkey | Strangelv: hmmm? |
*Strangelv may be falling back asleep | |
Piki | i tend to stay in gui because that's what i'm used to. i do keep a konsole open, but too small for irc IMO |
David_Rankin | The Tde logo looking like the old KDE logo is fine for the small things until something better is found. |
*Strangelv looks for teh tab with the page | |
Piki | so i stick with konv |
MutantTurkey | David_Rankin: agreed. |
Strangelv | The T-gear logo is the transitional one. What I'm working on is to try to work out the eventual replacement branding. The existing proposal is there to be nitted and hopefulyl result in steps towards a final mascot and logo that most of us will be happy with |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: want to just add the link to the minutes at the top of the page and such |
MutantTurkey | Strangelv: agreed. |
MutantTurkey | it is find for now, we need a new one. |
Strangelv | After all, we onyl want ONE transitional branding |
MutantTurkey | I think the biggest problem is that we forget how the user feels, we are so busy with cmake and udev and qt4 we don't realize simple things like logos |
Strangelv | "Well, the logo isn't one we have much choice over. We don't have any rights to the trademarks |
MutantTurkey | Strangelv: yeah. |
Strangelv | "And our transitional logo wouldn't hold up as being sufficiently distinct in court |
MutantTurkey | the kde e.v. has granted us some grace period basically |
Strangelv | So we do need to have a replacement before teh KDE developers get annoyed with us |
MutantTurkey | they know it is alot of work etc. |
MutantTurkey | so they do not care yet |
Piki | random stupid question: is it possible to get a recent computer than can boot usb flash drives to boot a usb sdhc reader? i'm thinking to do it as an alternative to my live cd -- the one i have is unreliable, and i'll need the cd burner so i can have a cd ready for my hard disk |
MutantTurkey | Piki: wait are you out in Pittsburgh? |
Piki | MutantTurkey, yes |
MutantTurkey | there is this awesome used computer store out there |
Strangelv | "...although with the impending transition of control of Qt4, which may also need a new name, tehy may need us as an ally to drum up support for continuing development |
MutantTurkey | I will have to get you the location |
MutantTurkey | with qt4 they will feel some more pressure from us i think |
Piki | MutantTurkey, it'll be quicker to order online, i'm getting paid tomorrow, and i won't have a day off until tuesday |
MutantTurkey | I know, but its a cool place to check out |
Strangelv | "It's been said that failed branding mascots are by definition forgettable |
MutantTurkey | gah |
MutantTurkey | we need a very good one then |
Strangelv | "So we need one that isn't forgettable. That said, I've been more impresesd by L315 than I expected to be |
Strangelv | I, at least, will remember it... |
MutantTurkey | we need to brainstorm next month meeting too i think |
David_Rankin | I say, drop a note on the ML that suggestion on the etherpad for a new logo/mascot are being solicited and set a 21 day time limit and see what you get :) |
David_Rankin | A deadline always helps spur action and keeps the focus |
David_Rankin | It's one of those things that you go with what you got at the end - can't spend to much TTE time talent energy on the issue. |
David_Rankin | I'm going to go look at the svn server. I'll be out with the kids (spring break w/ cousins at the Lake) through Sat. so I'll check back then -- If I survive :) |
David_Rankin | Great work all. Meeting was well worth the effort. There are a lot of great people working on this project. |
Strangelv | mascot-based logo with a speech balloon: http://imagebin.org/143449 |
Strangelv | my second-favorite sketch of L315: http://imagebin.org/143362 |
MutantTurkey | David_Rankin: :) agreed. |
MutantTurkey | I am glad you have joined up |
David_Rankin | In the mean time, we can all collect a list of links we run across that may have potential for the logo/mascot thing. - Not to copy, just to discuss - like/dislike, etc.. |
Piki | David_Rankin, a deadline also forces us to finish something regardless of if it's ready or not. i think we should just do the dev days and meeting to pool our efforts. that is normally enough to speed things along while making sure they are ready |
David_Rankin | Me too. This is a fun project, great group, and will be an asset to the OS community for years to come :) |
David_Rankin | Not a hard and fast deadline (target date would have been better :) |
MutantTurkey | i think we should have bi-weekly bug squashing sessions |
MutantTurkey | David_Rankin: yes. at least for the idea a target would be good |
MutantTurkey | we can work out details later |
MutantTurkey | anyway, Piki, Xu_R. goodnight. I'll be on tomorrow. David_Rankin good to see you, have fun on your trip. |
David_Rankin | Should be good - 7 kids 6 adults - we are out numbered! |
David_Rankin | Thanks you have a great night! |
Piki | i'm getting tired myself. I'm usually in bed about 20 minutes ago and need to be up early, get some stuff before work :-( |
*Strangelv tries to visualize L315 as a scrambled Rubik's Cube. | |
Strangelv | "Later. I' need to get back to sleep |
*kb9vqf-quick has joined #trinity-desktop | |

kb9vqf-quick | hehe |
Strangelv | "mascot presentation that fell through the cracks: http://trinity.etherpad.trinitydesktop.org/8 |
kb9vqf-quick | I just wanted to let samelian know about this: cp: cannot stat `./debian/tmp/opt/trinity/share/doc/kde/HTML/en/khelpcenter/konq.css |
kb9vqf-quick | anyway, will have more time tomorrow |
kb9vqf-quick | today was not the best for my schedule ;-) |

Xu_R | :O |
Xu_R | oh, wait. |
Xu_R | i'm running Firefox 4 RC. lol. |

MutantTurkey | what do you think about the phenonix idea David propsed/ |
MutantTurkey | ? |
Xu_R|School | hmm... I need kb9vqf to remove the collaborate from the topic for now... |
Xu_R|School | and I need him to put up the march meeting bit.ly list |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R|School: did you cleanup the march meeting list? add links and so fort |
MutantTurkey | also some stuff will need (obviously) to be moved to an april meeting list |
Xu_R|School | MutantTurkey: Yes, we will make the april meeting topics in about two weeks. |
Xu_R|School | MutantTurkey: link is up: http://bit.ly/dLiMpG |
MutantTurkey | thank you |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R|School: I am going to start Topics for March Meeting ok? |
Xu_R|School | You mean april meeting? |
MutantTurkey | I mean basically there is a lot of stuff the we will just follow up on, CMake, etc |
MutantTurkey | yes april |
Xu_R|School | sure :) |
MutantTurkey | also, the meeting pages are going to be more for meeting topics? before it was more like a checklist of everything. |
MutantTurkey | I think stuff like that should go on the specific pages, or like on the TODO page |
Xu_R|School | we will link to it then :) |
Xu_R|School | there is a way to create links interetherpad |
Xu_R|School | use [[pad#]] |
MutantTurkey | ok |
MutantTurkey | [[pad 4]] or something? |
Xu_R|School | just [[4]] |
MutantTurkey | ok |
MutantTurkey | can i change the title? |
Xu_R|School | i don't mind. :) |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R|School: why a maintainer page i don't understand |
MutantTurkey | D: the page is empty why?! |
Xu_R|School | I didn't fill it? |
MutantTurkey | It is empty. |
MutantTurkey | hold on this is weird. |
MutantTurkey | yes it is empty |
MutantTurkey | like, completely |
MutantTurkey | I am going to revert it ok? |
Xu_R|School | what? |
Xu_R|School | I'm filling it right now... |
MutantTurkey | D: what the hell. |
MutantTurkey | it says you are not on and it was empty |
MutantTurkey | april pad right? |
Xu_R|School | no... |
Xu_R|School | trinity.etherpad.trinitydesktop.org/18 |
MutantTurkey | D: well the april pad was empty. |
MutantTurkey | so i put it back to where it was |
MutantTurkey | weird |
Xu_R|School | ,...you're not on the april pad |
MutantTurkey | i am |
MutantTurkey | don't touch it or it will break i am sure |
Strangelv | Phoenix idea? |
*Strangelv suspects he should check his email | |
MutantTurkey | Strangelv: yes, please do |
MutantTurkey | like, a phoenix never dies, but just is born again from the ashes of its dead body |
MutantTurkey | much like trinity is born from kde 3.5 |
Strangelv | "May take a bit. I have'nt restarted firefox 3.6 yet after falling down the disk thrashing event horizon earlier |
MutantTurkey | right. |
Xu_R|School | MutantTurkey: nope, you're not - please refresh your page. |
MutantTurkey | no. |
MutantTurkey | :p |
MutantTurkey | yeah sure hold no |
MutantTurkey | Okay I just refreshed and the page is empty. |
MutantTurkey | I suspect foul play with the browser |
Xu_R|School | i'm on the admin page, it says you're not on it :-\ |
Xu_R|School | yes, probably foul play. |
MutantTurkey | trying with ff |

Xu_R|School | MutantTurkey: wait, actually |
Xu_R|School | don't touch it right now |
Xu_R|School | it's a linking problem, |
MutantTurkey | D: |
Xu_R|School | probably the same problem that Stranglev is having with attachments on etherpad and the search page not working |
MutantTurkey | D: ok |
Xu_R|School | aka, etherpad is failing atm... |
Xu_R|School | i'll make another new april pad later :) |
Xu_R|School | bbl lunch over |
MutantTurkey | why? just keep this one haha |
MutantTurkey | ok whatever. |

*Strangelv gets impatient and visits email from Konqueror while waiting for 3.6 to reload | |
Strangelv | "pro column: familiar symbology |
Strangelv | con colum: overused? |
*Strangelv tries to think past the cliche risk to something that may not be as heavily done. Wouldn't have teh familiarity, though | |
MutantTurkey | I love my kitchen! |
MutantTurkey | it is like my song writing spot. |
Strangelv | "Q: would the Phoenix really symbolize what we will be in more than five years? |
MutantTurkey | always get good songs from there |
MutantTurkey | Strangelv: no |
MutantTurkey | i also dont like it because fire represents power represents bad stuff. |
MutantTurkey | ya know? |
MutantTurkey | power greed hate etc |
Strangelv | "I could put wings on L315. 8) |
Strangelv | "or its successor if it's still the same concept |
Strangelv | "I still believe the 'Mr Potato Head' is the correct direction. Actually, I guess what I could say is I'm looking for specific nitpicks on L315 |
Strangelv | "Don't dance around it if you hate it -- I need to know why |
Strangelv | "Maybe I should draw a version as a range target to encourage people taking shots at it?L |
Strangelv | "I must admit it's cuter than I expected, and it's possible I hit it off right out the door (wouldn't be the first time), but I was thinking of a more iterative process |
MutantTurkey | I liove the potato head idea |
MutantTurkey | I don't understand what L315 is |
MutantTurkey | could you give me a drawing of him, just normal? |
MutantTurkey | I would like an idea of his plain and simple |
Strangelv | "Standing at attention... standby... I might still have teh link ,or I may have lost it |
MutantTurkey | yes |
MutantTurkey | ok thank you if you do |
Strangelv | "if not I upload it again |
*kb9vqf doesn't know what L315 is supposed to be :-/ | |
kb9vqf | From looking at it that is |
kb9vqf | Probably a bad thing from a mascot perspective ;-) |
*Strangelv : http://imagebin.org/143360 | |
Strangelv | "It's supposed to be TDE |
Strangelv | "Most people don't know what Goofy is either, and eh's a character |
Strangelv | I suppose ambiguity might actually work in its favor -- IFF (sic) that makes it more memorable |
Strangelv | If it isn't sufficiently memorable, it would help geratly to know why |
Strangelv | "ANd I could thetn crank out a hopefulyl less forgettable one, L320 or whenever I think of it |
Strangelv | "I've kept it mostly line art. I don't know what colors to make it any moer than I know its name |
MutantTurkey | I mean its not bad, but its not memorable i don't think. |
MutantTurkey | I don't know anything of design thouh |
Strangelv | "Doing cuet and interlesting things is something its successor could do too |
Strangelv | As well as multiple alternate configurations |
Strangelv | like the flower |
Strangelv | Someones' clamoring for a wvote already on the etherpad |
kb9vqf | personally it's a bit too alien |
kb9vqf | like a bug eyed (rather ugly) thing from a B grade sci fi movie |
kb9vqf | (no offense BTW) :) |
kb9vqf | just my humble opinion |
Strangelv | "Not offense at all. That's precisely waht I'm asking for |
kb9vqf | samelian: cp: cannot stat `./debian/tmp/opt/trinity/share/doc/kde/HTML/en/khelpcenter/quickstart/common': No such file or directory |
kb9vqf | ahh, he left already :( |
samelian | kb9vqf: "common" doesn't exists at all or is just a dead symlink? |
kb9vqf | there you are |
kb9vqf | didn't see you in the nicklist earlier for some reason :) |
samelian | hehe |
kb9vqf | I don't know though about the symlink |
kb9vqf | I don't have the ability to look through the build root after the build is done |
samelian | aha |
samelian | check on a real system |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | hang on |
samelian | common should be a symlink |
MutantTurkey | Strangelv: do we need a mascot? |
kb9vqf | will take a few minutes |
MutantTurkey | I can't think of any projects that have one |
MutantTurkey | most just have logos i guess |
MutantTurkey | well xfce has a rat |
kb9vqf | hey, if he want's to work on a mascot more power to him ;-) |
Strangelv | KDE has a dragon |
kb9vqf | but we still get to decide if we want to use what he comes up with as an official project mascot or not |
kb9vqf | good point |
Strangelv | BSD hasa devil |
Strangelv | "Lunux has Tux |
Strangelv | I'm thinking teh maskot before teh logo becaues I believe it's actually an easier problem |
kb9vqf | so what if we explored the dragon/lizard theme? |
kb9vqf | what other animals are similar? |
Strangelv | "a configurable lizard? |
*kb9vqf is just thinking of the Trinity project roots | |
MutantTurkey | a gecko? |
kb9vqf | chameleon? |
MutantTurkey | they can regrow tails and legs |
kb9vqf | nope, that's SUSE :-/ |
MutantTurkey | or a chameleon, can camo |
MutantTurkey | darn |
Strangelv | Chameleon that changes its colors to suit your tastes? |
MutantTurkey | taken |
kb9vqf | gecko isn't bad |
kb9vqf | something along these lines |
kb9vqf | *those lines |
Strangelv | People will thenk car insurance, though |
kb9vqf | hmmm |
kb9vqf | you're probably right :) |
kb9vqf | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lizard |
kb9vqf | Lots of variety to choose from |
MutantTurkey | lizard may think suse |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | then what about the dragon theme |
kb9vqf | what is similar yet distincy |
kb9vqf | *distinct |
MutantTurkey | no i think it is bad |
samelian | mozilla have a kind of dragon |
MutantTurkey | a fox dude. |
MutantTurkey | fire-FOX |
MutantTurkey | :) |
MutantTurkey | because dragons, are associated with evil. |
samelian | firefox, but not mozilla |
MutantTurkey | so we shouldn't use it. |
samelian | do not confuse it |
kb9vqf | Hehe....this should be KDE4's mascot: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Thorny_Devil_crop.jpg |
MutantTurkey | hehe |
MutantTurkey | maybe something refeering to galapagos islands |
samelian | MutantTurkey: http://www.google.ro/imgres?imgurl=http://www.w4a.info/2007/images/mozilla-foundation-logo-250x235.png&imgrefurl=http://www.w4a.info/2007/sponsors.shtml&h=235&w=250&sz=19&tbnid=-RzTywf5UT99EM:&tbnh=104&tbnw=111&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dmozilla%2Blogo&zoom=1&q=mozilla+logo&hl=ro&usg=__zMInUPS_9f1xjqYvRa1xH8XUA9M=&sa=X&ei=LTOCTab7OYbKswas1f2FAw&ved=0CEgQ9QEwBg |
MutantTurkey | ancient society, but it has developed over time into a very confiugrable system |
kb9vqf | yes, samelian is right MutantTurkey :) |
MutantTurkey | I was mistaken |
MutantTurkey | I always though that was a T-Rex D: |
MutantTurkey | why does it need to be an animal? |
kb9vqf | it doesn't |
samelian | a crocodile :) |
kb9vqf | but people do find them "cute" and easily identifiable |
MutantTurkey | samelian: taken i think |
MutantTurkey | C3PO is just as identifiable as Donald Duck |
kb9vqf | yes, but outside the geek circles people may or may not like C3PO |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: hmmm, i think everyone likes it :) |
MutantTurkey | and we are nerds :P |
kb9vqf | animals for mascots or in cartoons, etc. seem to have univeral appeal (just ask Disney) |
Strangelv | I didn't do 3P0. As it's a character that hasn't existed before, no one will already be annoyed with it. If they identify it with annoyance, it's likely becaus ethey're anonyed with TDE |
MutantTurkey | ok then an animal is. |
MutantTurkey | Strangelv: yes . |
samelian | a cat? I like cats :) |
MutantTurkey | same with dogs and cats and mice and dragons |
samelian | berkeley db, actually |
Strangelv | "if we do an animal I have a question: what animal might communicate configurability and customizability? |
Strangelv | "or adaptability |
MutantTurkey | cameleon D: |
*Strangelv draws a roach | |
kb9vqf | I keep going back to the lizards for that :-/ |
MutantTurkey | Strangelv: hahah yes. |
MutantTurkey | I think a cockroach is already a logo for some really secure linux distro |
samelian | trinity is fluid like a feline |
MutantTurkey | i forget though |
kb9vqf | hey yeah, what about speed and elegance? |
MutantTurkey | speed? pffft what speed |
kb9vqf | ? |
Strangelv | "Here's Samelian, Tim |
kb9vqf | Trinity's nice and fast for me...... |
Strangelv | "Speed is how long the system is waiting on its user to do something these days |
MutantTurkey | on your 4 core 3.6 ghz 16 gigs of ram? |
MutantTurkey | :p |
MutantTurkey | that is speed, and logging into trinity takes longer for me than xfce or gnome did |
Strangelv | "WE're not XFCE. There's other solutions when you're trying to squeese out every kHz |
kb9vqf | right |
kb9vqf | hence the AND above |
kb9vqf | if I wanted fast I would boot into DOS |
MutantTurkey | I read an article about windows developers |
MutantTurkey | they get a new computer every year, thats why its so slow for everyone else |
samelian | http://www.google.ro/imgres?imgurl=http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_UGSSUl2rb6s/TUobVbH8KOI/AAAAAAAAAWU/wBRx51tJZ_A/s1600/Tasmanian%2BDevil.jpg&imgrefurl=http://outbackcooking.blogspot.com/2011/02/tasmanian-devil-or-taz.html&h=977&w=1200&sz=83&tbnid=fG_4LIhKYmVvbM:&tbnh=122&tbnw=150&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dtasmanian%2Bdevil&zoom=1&q=tasmanian+devil&hl=ro&usg=__g8CtwHdyUL8EUouzZjJfwyM8I-E=&sa=X&ei=lzSCTezRJcnBtAbw87S0Aw&ved=0CEAQ9QEwBA |
samelian | tasmanian devil :) |
MutantTurkey | because they don't care about speed with fast comuters |
MutantTurkey | samelian: hmm good idea |
MutantTurkey | a same it is taken |
kb9vqf | are most of the big cats (cheetah, etc.) taken already? |
Strangelv | Alas, Taz is so far removed from teh actual animal he's almost impossibel to duplicate without getting sued |
MutantTurkey | Strangelv: I know we are not xfce, but also gnome is faster for me as well as any non DE's. it's not fast as i'd like it to be |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: I'd assume so. |
Strangelv | "If we don't have it, don't flaunt it |
kb9vqf | oh, ok |
*kb9vqf wonders how we are slower than KDE4 | |
samelian | trinity won't die, like a kitchen bug :) |
kb9vqf | Well, a bug wouldn't be bad from certain perspectives |
kb9vqf | but it might turn off users |
kb9vqf | samelian: http://pastebin.com/AgzSWM8T |
MutantTurkey | slightly nsfw: (language) but this guy maybe could make us one:http://theoatmeal.com/comics/ptero |
Strangelv | "The KDE dragon, nthe outgoing tenant here, is cute to complete impracticality. He also never does anything |
MutantTurkey | he makes comics and such, and he made the tumblr logo |
MutantTurkey | he's an open source junkie i think so maybe I'll email him |
*Strangelv wonders how a bearodactyl could apply to TDE | |
kb9vqf | old and craceful? |
kb9vqf | *graceful |
kb9vqf | samelian: Any thoughts on that pastebin? |
kb9vqf | That is what I get when I try to build locally :-/ |
samelian | not yet, i try to figure out |
MutantTurkey | Strangelv: :p |
kb9vqf | It's something that is wrong on my local install |
kb9vqf | But I don't know what |
kb9vqf | Could be a missing package for all I know |
samelian | kb9vqf: kdex.dtd is provided by kdelibs |
Strangelv | "What if the Potato Head robot was built to resemble an animal as a default? What about a Golem? |
kb9vqf | golem? |
MutantTurkey | A potato head potato but a robot could work |
MutantTurkey | maybe like with a bunch of mismatched body parts, |
MutantTurkey | like differently drawn arms, legs, different hats and eyes and such |
MutantTurkey | and colorful |
Strangelv | a golem is akin to Mary Shelly's creature from New Prometheus |
MutantTurkey | to represent change |
kb9vqf | most people would probably find a mismatched animal/mascot ugly |
Strangelv | "so it already has all of the part,s rather than changing parts? |
samelian | kb9vqf: you have installed kdelibs? |
kb9vqf | yes |
kb9vqf | and it only happens in my chroot |
kb9vqf | build systems are perfectly fine :-/ |
kb9vqf | but I can't check the symlink from the build systems |
samelian | where is located kdex.dtd? |
samelian | on my system is on /usr/kde/3.5/share/apps/ksgmltools2/customization/dtd/kdex.dtd |
*Strangelv tries to envision a sort of swiss army robot that doesn't look 'Swiss Army' | |
kb9vqf | /opt/trinity/share/apps/ksgmltools2/customization/dtd/kdex.dtd |
samelian | seems ok |
kb9vqf | yeah |
kb9vqf | i don't get it |
kb9vqf | samelian: personally I would assume that the common symlink is not being generated |
kb9vqf | reason being is that Debian will happily install a "dead" symlink |
samelian | you rebuilt kdelibs after changing HTML_INSTALL_DIR? |
kb9vqf | yes |
kb9vqf | In every way the local system should be identical to the build farm, except that it runs an older kernel |
samelian | what happens when you run manually |
samelian | /usr/kde/3.5/bin/meinproc --check --cache index.cache.bz2 /home/serghei/projects/trinity/kdebase/doc/khelpcenter/index.docbook |
kb9vqf | samelian: I would strongly suggest that the common symlink is not generated at all |
samelian | hmm, maybe |
kb9vqf | samelian: Nothing |
kb9vqf | No errors |
samelian | so, it's ok when you run manually |
samelian | opt/trinity/bin/meinproc --check --cache index.cache.bz2 /build/kdebase-trinity-3.5.12/doc/kcontrol/index.docbook |
samelian | ? |
kb9vqf | Nope |
kb9vqf | it does |
kb9vqf | *dies |
*kb9vqf thinks this is a probable waste of time | |
kb9vqf | it's most likely a corrupted chroot |
kb9vqf | but it will take a while to reinstall |
kb9vqf | samelian: can you think of a reason why the symlink would not be created? |
samelian | not sure, I must to check your logs carefully |
kb9vqf | samelian: Want the log link? |
samelian | I have it |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ichneumon_%28In_medieval_zoology%29 |
kb9vqf | It is the enemy of a dragon (KDE4) |
kb9vqf | :) |
kb9vqf | Is a lemur taken alreayd? |
kb9vqf | *already |
MutantTurkey | haha if i could prnounce it |
MutantTurkey | what about something like legos? |
kb9vqf | people might then assume Trinity == something for young people |
MutantTurkey | ah |
MutantTurkey | what about hmmm i dunno |
MutantTurkey | something norse maybe? |
MutantTurkey | i guess yygdrasill already has that one |
kb9vqf | samelian: Do you need anything else from me to look into the symlink problem? |
samelian | "ln -s" is executed at install stage |
samelian | debian build system permit to run this command at install stage? |
kb9vqf | yes |
kb9vqf | should I see that command being run in the verbose CMake logs? |
samelian | i can't see any "ln -s" command in your logs |
kb9vqf | http://quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net:58080/2052777/buildlog_ubuntu-maverick-i386.kdebase-trinity_4%3A3.5.12-0ubuntu7%2Br1225155%2Bpr94_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz |
kb9vqf | the debian builder executes it |
kb9vqf | I just don't see CMake doing the same |
kb9vqf | samelian: I don't see doc/khelpcenter being installed anywhere |
kb9vqf | or rather khelpcenter/quickstart |
kb9vqf | I see this |
kb9vqf | Installing: /build/buildd/kdebase-trinity-3.5.12/debian/tmp/opt/trinity/share/doc/kde/HTML/en/quickstart/index.docbook |
kb9vqf | but I think that's a different docbook |
kb9vqf | samelian: quickstart is not being installed into the khelpcenter directory at all |
samelian | I saw that debian use "/usr/bin/cmake -P cmake_install.cmake" instead "make install" |
samelian | i'm not sure that is the same thing |
kb9vqf | it should be |
samelian | there is |
samelian | IF(NOT CMAKE_INSTALL_COMPONENT OR "${CMAKE_INSTALL_COMPONENT}" STREQUAL "Unspecified") |
samelian | execute_process( COMMAND ln -s /usr/kde/3.5/share/doc/HTML/en/common $ENV{DESTDIR}/usr/kde/3.5/share/doc/kde/HTML/en/khelpcenter ) |
samelian | ENDIF(NOT CMAKE_INSTALL_COMPONENT OR "${CMAKE_INSTALL_COMPONENT}" STREQUAL "Unspecified") |
samelian | but seems that is not executed |
kb9vqf | samelian: That is not the problem |
kb9vqf | quickstart is not being installed into the khelpcenter directory at all |
kb9vqf | Here is a log from a successful Automake build: http://quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net:58080/1331366/buildlog_ubuntu-squeeze-i386.kdebase-trinity_4%3A3.5.12-0debian7%2Br1181781_FULLYBUILT.txt.gz |
kb9vqf | search for khelpcenter/quickstart |
kb9vqf | Note that it is installed |
kb9vqf | Now search for khelpcenter/quickstart in the failed log |
kb9vqf | Note that it is NOT installed |
*kb9vqf does not know why that is | |
kb9vqf | samelian: Is this CMakeList.txt file correct? http://websvn.kde.org/branches/trinity/kdebase/doc/khelpcenter/CMakeLists.txt?revision=1225155&view=markup |
kb9vqf | It is not finding the docbooks |
samelian | yes |
kb9vqf | hmmm |
samelian | hang on |
*kb9vqf can confirm that index.docbook is not being parsed/installed | |
samelian | kb9vqf: actually in sources, under kdebase/doc/khelpcenter, quickstart doesn't exists |
kb9vqf | samelian: It is generated from index.docbook in kdebase/doc/khelpcenter |
kb9vqf | from what I understand anyway |
samelian | tde_handbook have no ideea how to do this |
kb9vqf | samelian: this is what Automake does: http://pastebin.com/HcCZyk6R |
samelian | I don't understand very well how meinproc working |
samelian | ok |
MutantTurkey | anyone enjoy the song I shall Be Replaced by Bob Dylan? |
samelian | ok, I get it |
kb9vqf | samelian: Do you think you can fix it? |
samelian | yes, in 2 seconds :) |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | great :)) |
samelian | quickstart is actually outside khelpcenter, but must be installed under khelpcenter |
samelian | hang ok |
samelian | on* |
samelian | kb9vqf: fixed |
kb9vqf | ok |
*kb9vqf will fire a rebuild in 4 minutes | |
kb9vqf | If anyone was wondering how many users Trinity has, take a look at this: http://mirror2.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/ |
kb9vqf | That is only from one of the three primary mirrors (!) |
*Xu_R|School has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: just for that distro also :) |
kb9vqf | yep |
kb9vqf | so quite popular! |
MutantTurkey | so thats even more |
MutantTurkey | so 6000 people using trinity/ |
kb9vqf | just from that mirror, and pretty much just on Debian |
kb9vqf | well, Debian/ubuntu |
MutantTurkey | we should get more stats from other mirrors |
MutantTurkey | I didn't realize we had such a following |
MutantTurkey | this is excellent |
kb9vqf | eventually I'll get around to collecting the stats |
kb9vqf | Now you know why QuickBuild was "slow" |
kb9vqf | even with three mirrors that's a lot of traffic! |
Strangelv | "I'm sure thires' still plenty of people still running KDE 3.x that we can hopefulyl add to this |
Strangelv | "We need excuses to wriet press releases |
kb9vqf | That is the goal |
kb9vqf | Switching people from KDE3.5 |
Strangelv | "They need to know we exist |
kb9vqf | yes |
kb9vqf | which is one reason I am willing to consider sending someone to FOSSCON if our release is ready in time |
Strangelv | "What are the expenses? |
kb9vqf | minimal |
kb9vqf | we have someone who lives within striking range of this year's convention :) |
Strangelv | good |
Strangelv | That always helps |
kb9vqf | for sure |
Strangelv | was how I managed to attend ISDC in 2007 |
Strangelv | which admittedly isn't the conference to promede TDE |
Strangelv | or promote |
Strangelv | "At least not directly |
kb9vqf | nope :) |
kb9vqf | samelian: OK, looks like that problem is fixed, but here is a new one: cp: cannot stat `./debian/tmp/opt/trinity/share/doc/kde/HTML/en/khelpcenter/userguide/accessibility.docbook': No such file or directory |
samelian | i think is the same problem |
kb9vqf | yes, but not with quickstart |
kb9vqf | so your fix worked |
kb9vqf | but it needs to be extended to the other docbooks |
samelian | i'm a little busy, you want to try to fix it? |
kb9vqf | ok |
*kb9vqf will try | |
Xu_R|School | kb9vqf: you put tqt for qt4 up? awesome, I can make specs for it so that people can test on RPM-based systems :D |
Xu_R|School | kb9vqf: however, you must allow anonymous read-only access for the trinity and trinity-packaging if we are to be able to grab it :) |
Xu_R|School | ok, school over. |

*kb9vqf notes that etherpad won't let users sign up on their own | |
samelian | i'm in |
kb9vqf | ok |
Xu_R | yes, I remember signing up samelina :) |
Xu_R | *samelian |
samelian | there is not yet a pad for cmake? |
Xu_R | samelian: there is |
samelian | ah, i found it |
Xu_R | the [[ ]] denote links to other pads :) |
samelian | yes, I saw your conversation with MutantTurkey |
samelian | I don't like my coulour :) |
Xu_R | samelian: feel free to change it :) |
samelian | i can't |
samelian | I can press "save" |
samelian | can't |
Xu_R | it's possible - click your colour :) |
samelian | I did, but "save" button is not clickable |
samelian | chrome bug? |
Xu_R | no, I am using chrome too :-\ |
samelian | you can change the color? |
Xu_R | Yes, I'll change mine to show you |
Xu_R | I am now hot pink lol :P |
samelian | hmm, not is working |
samelian | now* |
Xu_R | :( |
samelian | wtf, I can't type :) |
Xu_R | D: |
samelian | you should use symbols |
samelian | [X] [?] or smth like this |
Xu_R | I was not the one who created this pad ;) |
samelian | suggest me a symbol for "in progress" :) |
Xu_R | hmm... [-] ? |
samelian | yes |
samelian | [+] for done |
Xu_R | good symbols :) |
samelian | and [X] for "commited" |
Xu_R | brb |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: did you fix that problem with the etherpad? |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: yes, April Meeting Topics is in its own pad. I even cleaned it up very well. |
MutantTurkey | ok |
MutantTurkey | Renameing it "Topics for April Meeting" |
MutantTurkey | to keep consistant with "Topiics for Marcvh Meeting" |
Xu_R | ok |
*Anixx-suse has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | samelian: can we stick with one format for the Cmake etherpad? |
samelian | which one? |
MutantTurkey | I mean, first i had X's then i switched the whole thing over for your D's now it's back to something else. |
MutantTurkey | :) |
MutantTurkey | lets stick with this one. |
samelian | sure |
MutantTurkey | the [X] [-] [+] etc |
MutantTurkey | ok cool. |
MutantTurkey | thanks |
samelian | mark with [!] packages blocked by deps |
*Xu_R|TDE has joined #trinity-desktop | |
samelian | we should choose a color and use it across all pads |
MutantTurkey | by deps? |
MutantTurkey | oh okay i understand |
MutantTurkey | samelian: yes i am dark blue |
Xu_R | question |
Xu_R | samelian: do we use these arguments? We probably should: -DKDE_DEFAULT_HOME=".tde" -DKDE_DISTRIBUTION_TEXT="Distribution" |
Xu_R | allow to modify where the default home is and the distribution text (the packager) |
samelian | yes, we should provide these options |
Xu_R | samelian: I'm going to add those arguments to all trinity packages - arts, kdelibs, kdebase, etc |
Xu_R | those options are important :) |
samelian | ok |
samelian | we need to find where these options are used |
Xu_R | samelian: yes... we need to find them... |
samelian | make a list with places where they are used and I will made support for it in cmake |
Xu_R | I'll search through Trinity's svn to see if I can find anything |
MutantTurkey | samelian: need yo help |
samelian | hit me |
MutantTurkey | ok |
MutantTurkey | http://ix.io/1yy |
MutantTurkey | can't seem to find a header in the libkfaximage/ directory |
MutantTurkey | even though ive included it with: ${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/kfaxview/libkfaximage/ |
samelian | show me cmakelists.txt |
MutantTurkey | ok |
samelian | also, run make VERBOSE=1 and show me output |
MutantTurkey | wait i fixed :P |
MutantTurkey | It was a problem with the variable |
MutantTurkey | i was using CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE DIR |
MutantTurkey | not cmake source dir |
samelian | hehe |
MutantTurkey | very handy link:http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/CMake_Useful_Variables |
samelian | yep |
samelian | actually in this case you can use ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/libkfaximage |
MutantTurkey | i prefer not to |
MutantTurkey | because i rather keep using one variable for everything |
samelian | sometimes is not ok to use {CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR} |
samelian | I we will change the name of package, your application will not be compilable anymore |
samelian | if we will* |
samelian | {CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR} should be used only for external references |
kb9vqf | samelian: cp: cannot stat `./debian/tmp/opt/trinity/share/apps/konsole/fonts/fonts.dir': No such file or directory |
samelian | hang on |
MutantTurkey | ok |
samelian | kb9vqf: there is a problem, we need to run mkfontdir, but AFTER installing fonts |
samelian | i'm not sure if this can be guaranteed in parallel processing |
kb9vqf | samelian: Doesn't cmake have a mechanism to guarantee that? |
kb9vqf | Or can you run it as part of the install step? |
samelian | for targets is possible, using dependecies mechanism |
samelian | for i'm not sure about install |
Xu_R | wheee - just installed Konversation on Windows :D |
Xu_R | brb - testing |
kb9vqf | samelian: Can you run mkfontdir from within the install step? |
kb9vqf | That would seem to be the safest |
samelian | you mean, to run mkfontdir at build stage? |
kb9vqf | samelian: Actually I was thinking at the install sage |
kb9vqf | *stage |
kb9vqf | That way the files would be installed for certain |
kb9vqf | I will leave it to you I guess |
kb9vqf | poke me if you want me to try a parallel build from SVN |
kb9vqf | :) |
samelian | for now, I fixed it |
samelian | will se what happens |
samelian | see* |
samelian | I must to imagine something to allow installing/mkfontdir to be run atomically |
samelian | kb9vqf: ^^^ |
*Xu_R has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Xu_R|TDE | :D Konversation for Windows works! Then Norton quarantined ksyscocoa and caused it to crash -_- |
MutantTurkey | D: |
MutantTurkey | hahah |
MutantTurkey | I never use virus protection. |
Xu_R|TDE | lol |
Xu_R|TDE | well, I use PeerBlock to prevent hackings |
Xu_R|TDE | but I still need the protection - Win7 sucks when it comes to security updates |
MutantTurkey | I just have a very protected firewall |
MutantTurkey | only open things are ssh and http, and ssh is hidden on a different port, automatic 3 try regection, only one user can login etc |
Xu_R|TDE | ah. I see. |
MutantTurkey | I have been playing guitar since about 11am |
MutantTurkey | hands are killnggg me |
Xu_R|TDE | :-\ |
*Xu_R has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | good and bad i guess |
Xu_R|TDE | ROAR now it kills kioslave :( |
MutantTurkey | samelian: kfaxview done :) |
samelian | good |
Xu_R|TDE | but it seems to be working w/o kioslave, interestingly |
*Xu_R has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Xu_R|TDE | looks like my Konversation is working (Xu_R). w/e. |
Xu_R | need to make one last change... |
kb9vqf | ok, triggering build |
MutantTurkey | samelian: error: 'abs' was not declared in this scope |
samelian | I think you need to detect stdlib.h |
MutantTurkey | ok |
MutantTurkey | i didn't know if it was a standard function |
samelian | man abs :) |
MutantTurkey | on archlinux we have "abs" arch build system :p |
samelian | man 3 abs |
MutantTurkey | absolute value ok :) |
MutantTurkey | ok, another thing |
MutantTurkey | there is an program called "squeeze" that i guess compresses psheader.txt into psheader.c |
MutantTurkey | any idea how to do that? |
*Xu_R has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | so i need to 1) compile squeeze 2) use it to make ps_header.txt compressed then 3) rename it? |
MutantTurkey | I don't really understand what is going on. |
MutantTurkey | I use it un compressed and it works fine |
MutantTurkey | I say we just generate it once, then add it to the repos |
MutantTurkey | basically what squeeze does is this: adds some header lines, takes the contenets of the psheader.txt and puts it in a variable, then outputs the whole thing to stdout |
samelian | you need to use add_custom_command() |
MutantTurkey | what is that |
MutantTurkey | dos |
MutantTurkey | i will search it |
samelian | MutantTurkey: should be smth like this: |
samelian | add_custom_command( OUTPUT psheader.c |
samelian | COMMAND ${CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/squeeze ${CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/psheader.txt psheader.c |
samelian | DEPENDS psheader.txt squeeze ) |
MutantTurkey | ok. |
MutantTurkey | so i need to check for stdlib.h |
MutantTurkey | with the check_include_cxx? |
samelian | nope, this is plain C file |
samelian | do not forget to put HAVE_STDLIB_H to config.h.cmake |
samelian | if you working on kmrml, you need HAVE_UNISTD_H as well |
MutantTurkey | I have that already |
MutantTurkey | samelian: actually kmrml doesn't need that |
MutantTurkey | i don't think |
MutantTurkey | at least I haven't had that problem |
samelian | check mrml.cpp |
MutantTurkey | yeah but it didn't error out? |
MutantTurkey | so what is the problem? |
samelian | I think it have workrounds |
MutantTurkey | I don't get it, why aren't we assuming that everyone has stdlib and unistd? |
MutantTurkey | because if they don't have it, it will error anyway |
samelian | nope |
samelian | the code is designed to run on various platforms |
MutantTurkey | obviously it wasn't |
MutantTurkey | because if it was then it would have an ifdef |
MutantTurkey | to kmrml we should add ifdefs and such |
samelian | mrml.cpp have #ifdef guards |
MutantTurkey | no it does not |
samelian | open it and check :) |
MutantTurkey | I don't see what you are saying |
samelian | #ifdef HAVE_STDLIB_H |
samelian | #include <stdlib.h> |
samelian | #endif |
MutantTurkey | where |
MutantTurkey | in mrml.cpp? |
MutantTurkey | no |
samelian | mrml.cpp |
samelian | line 21 |
MutantTurkey | there is no ifdef |
MutantTurkey | unless you've added it recently |
samelian | nope, this is original code |
MutantTurkey | I haven't pulled anything recently |
MutantTurkey | no then |
MutantTurkey | http://ix.io/1yB |
MutantTurkey | that is my file |
samelian | strange |
samelian | run svn update |
MutantTurkey | what is yours? |
MutantTurkey | i have conflicts |
MutantTurkey | with kruler |
samelian | this is mine: http://paste.lug.ro/131057 |
MutantTurkey | strange |
MutantTurkey | Ok, I cannot pull weirdly |
MutantTurkey | svn: Failed to add file 'kruler/pics/CMakeLists.txt': an unversioned file of the same name already exists |
samelian | kruler was commited by me, if i correct remember |
MutantTurkey | yes it was |
MutantTurkey | hmm |
MutantTurkey | I pulled no change |
samelian | ok, will talk tomorrow |
samelian | gn all |
MutantTurkey | samelian totally just f'd me over D: |
MutantTurkey | i over wrote the main cmakelists. |
MutantTurkey | damn |
MutantTurkey | and my freaking config.h.cmake |
MutantTurkey | D: |
Xu_R | :( |
MutantTurkey | never listening to that idiot again |
Xu_R | now now, don't get carried away |
MutantTurkey | I am quite angry though |
MutantTurkey | that was alot of hard work |
MutantTurkey | will take probably over an hour to fix |
Xu_R | do you have a backup? |
MutantTurkey | no |
Xu_R | :( |
MutantTurkey | I don't backup an entire ridiculously huge tree |
MutantTurkey | haha. good, now his new tde macros are broken also |
MutantTurkey | that is good. |
MutantTurkey | i am so happy right now. |
MutantTurkey | >:| |
Xu_R | :( |
MutantTurkey | gah. |
MutantTurkey | I am to tired to for this -_______- |
Xu_R | get some sleep :) |
MutantTurkey | yeah. |
MutantTurkey | i have off tomorrow so i may be able to get some work done. |
MutantTurkey | the problem is that it takes me some time to get going, you know actually sit down and get in the code |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: good night. |

kb9vqf | samelian: I got kdebase to build :) |
kb9vqf | Thanks for all your help |
kb9vqf | samelian: You should probably take a look at kdebase/kwin/kompmgr/CMakeLists.txt ; it was my first attempt at a new CMake build file and I don't know if everything is 100% correct (it builds, but I would just like a second set of eyes to verify that it is correct) |
samelian | great |
samelian | ok, i will check |
kb9vqf | thanks |
*Piki has joined #trinity-desktop | |

kb9vqf | Xu_R: Default permissions have been changed to allow anonymous read for the trinity-packaging SVN repository |
kb9vqf | I am keeping the trinity experimental repository login required, as it is experimental and most users have no business there ;-) |
*K`zan has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: ok - but awww, I wanted to package tqt for qt4 |
Xu_R | i don't mind though - that's second priority :) |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: Be my guest and create package files :) |
kb9vqf | I assume you can build them locally, no? |
samelian | kb9vqf: I have some problems with caldav |
samelian | I use vanilla version |
samelian | seems that .pc file is broken or non-standard |
kb9vqf | hmmm |
kb9vqf | Not sure why that would be :-/ |
kb9vqf | Then again I generally don't work with CMake or .pc files |
kb9vqf | Do you want to see if you can fix the .pc file? |
samelian | without .pc file I cannot detect it |
kb9vqf | right |
samelian | on gentoo is installed under /usr/include/libcaldav-0.6.2 |
samelian | so, I can't guess headers location |
*kb9vqf goes to look for the .pc file location | |
kb9vqf | samelian: On Debian the .pc file is installed like this: /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 libcaldav.pc '/build/buildd/libcaldav-0.6.5/debian/tmp/usr/lib/pkgconfig' |
kb9vqf | samelian: Are you using the version that was patched for Trinity? |
samelian | nope |
kb9vqf | well, it won't work then :) |
kb9vqf | samelian: http://www.trinitydesktop.org/relatedprojects.php |
kb9vqf | use the tarballs from there |
samelian | I read it already |
samelian | hmm, in this case we must incorporate caldav in trinity |
samelian | because no distro will not provide our caldav |
samelian | sorry for double negation, I thinking in Romanian :) |
samelian | no distro will provide patched caldav |
samelian | maybe a good place is "dependencies", along tqt and arts |
kb9vqf | well, I'm not sure |
kb9vqf | someone needs to generate a patch and get it accepted upstream IMHO |
kb9vqf | I have worked with the caldav maintainer before and he will consider new patches |
samelian | aha |
kb9vqf | but it was becoming too much of a hassle to generate new patches all the time :) |
kb9vqf | it is stable now, so now would be the time to get them accepted upstream |
kb9vqf | libcarddav on the other hand is a trinity-only library |
samelian | autotools is assuming that caldav.h is located under /usr/include/libcaldav |
kb9vqf | we are upstream for that one :) |
kb9vqf | ok |
*kb9vqf goes to grab some dinner--be back later | |
samelian | "pkg-config libcaldav --cflags" returns: |
samelian | -pthread -I/usr/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/lib/glib-2.0/include |
samelian | which is wrong |
samelian | "pkg-config libcaldav --variable=pkgincludedir" return corect path to libdav headers, /usr/include/libcaldav-0.6.2 |
samelian | but i'm not sure that cmake can handle this |
*techie26 has joined #trinity-desktop | |
samelian | I hacked cmake to handle with pkgincludedir and pkglibdir |
samelian | now I need patched sources, I can't find it |
kb9vqf | samelian: https://quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/~trinity/+archive/trinity-builddeps/+files/libcaldav_0.6.5-0debian2.tar.gz |
kb9vqf | and https://quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/~trinity/+archive/trinity-builddeps/+files/libcarddav_0.6.2-0debian4.tar.gz |
samelian | and carddav? |
kb9vqf | the second link |
samelian | nevermind, I figure out how to find sources |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | :) |
kb9vqf | it's pretty simple |
samelian | ok, we should to make something to not conflict with unpatched packages, provided by distros |
kb9vqf | samelian: libcarddav is not provided by any distros AFAIK |
kb9vqf | it was created by me for Trinity |
samelian | aha |
kb9vqf | libcaldav though should have the patches submitted upstream |
samelian | kb9vqf: libcaldav_0.6.5-0debian2.tar.gz contain directory ibcaldav-0.6.4 |
samelian | also, there is no configure script, I should use autogen.sh? |
kb9vqf | samelian: ignore the directory problem, it's a quirk of my build system |
kb9vqf | yes, use autogen.sh |
samelian | ok, my libcaldav package was built |
samelian | kcal_caldav resource seems ok either |
kb9vqf | good |
samelian | kb9vqf: carddav seems fine too |
kb9vqf | great! |
samelian | hooray, kdepim/kresources are finally done |
kb9vqf | rather large wasn't it? :) |
kb9vqf | kdepim is a pain |
kb9vqf | I'm dreading the TQt conversion there :-/ |
*techie26 has joined #trinity-desktop | |
samelian | hehe, yes, kdepim is huge |
kb9vqf | samelian: Do you have a link with the latest CMake porting status for all the Trinity modules? |
*kb9vqf needs to know which Debian package to build next :) | |
samelian | kdepim should be next |
samelian | http://trinity.etherpad.trinitydesktop.org/9 |
samelian | kdepim is not done yet, but I want to know if parallel build is ok |
kb9vqf | samelian: That's a tall order--the Debian build scripts are not yet ready and kdepim is huge |
kb9vqf | I'll work on it as I have time thought :) |
kb9vqf | *though |
samelian | you can try kdevelop as well |
samelian | this is almost done |
samelian | missing just cvs support |
samelian | i think we should drop cvs support at all |
kb9vqf | hmmm |
kb9vqf | how hard is CVS support? |
kb9vqf | maybe I'll work on it |
*kb9vqf is not sure | |
samelian | not sure, i think it needs cervisia |
kb9vqf | so really kdepim is the next module that is ported to CMake after kdebase? |
samelian | yes, is most completed |
kb9vqf | cervisia is in SVN or not? |
kb9vqf | Trinity SVN that is? |
samelian | don't remember, hang on |
samelian | hmm, i'm wrong, I dont remeber what problem is with cvs |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | maybe I'll look at it when I have time |
samelian | ok, I will check too |
kb9vqf | no, you keep working on kdepim ;-) |
samelian | hehe, ok |
kb9vqf | I also need to look at TQt converting kdepim |
kb9vqf | that is probably the fastest way to find the remaining TQt bugs |
samelian | I expect that kdepim will be done next week |
kb9vqf | ok |
*kb9vqf will work on various packaging problems till then | |

MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: could you hookup bugs.trinitydesktop.org to the bug tracker? |
MutantTurkey | instead of staying on bugs.pearson... |
samelian | MutantTurkey: you added HAVE_STDLIB_H to config.h.cmake ? |
MutantTurkey | hmmm let me check |
*field_it has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | yes |
MutantTurkey | #cmakedefine HAVE_STDLIB_H "@HAVE_STDLIB_H@" |
MutantTurkey | samelian: same error, abs not declared in scope |
samelian | you mean, #cmakedefine HAVE_STDLIB_H 1 |
MutantTurkey | ok |
MutantTurkey | thanks |
MutantTurkey | ok recompiling now |
MutantTurkey | samelian: same problem still though |
samelian | show me the complete error |
MutantTurkey | http://ix.io/1yU |
samelian | MutantTurkey: insert #include <stdlib.h> into dviRenderer_draw.cpp |
MutantTurkey | ok |
MutantTurkey | samelian: ok now error is for getenv |
samelian | #include <stdlib.h> |
MutantTurkey | I've already added that. |
MutantTurkey | here is a better solution, add it to the config.h.cmake instead |
MutantTurkey | so i don't have to add it to like ten files |
MutantTurkey | like so: #cmakedefine HAVE_STDLIB_H #include <stdlib.h> |
MutantTurkey | or no? |
samelian | show me complete error |
MutantTurkey | no need to |
samelian | you fixed it? |
MutantTurkey | it was just another file that needed the stdlib.h |
MutantTurkey | so i added it to that file aswell. |
samelian | ok |
samelian | do not include headers in config.h.cmake |
MutantTurkey | ok |
MutantTurkey | will not |
MutantTurkey | do that then |

*kb9vqf was kind of curious if the power was going to come back quickly enough though ;-) | |
MutantTurkey | did it go out? |
kb9vqf | oh yes |
kb9vqf | spike/out/brwnout/out/spike/restored |
MutantTurkey | nice |
kb9vqf | so a very thorough test of my protection |
MutantTurkey | well that is good |
*kb9vqf likes to think he learned his lesson from the past two years | |
MutantTurkey | :) |
Xu_R | Piki: use views. |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: ohai. just got on. |
kb9vqf | np |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: Want to hunt down that bug for me? |
kb9vqf | It's in kdebase/konsole |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: sure, I'll try |
kb9vqf | OK, here's the description |
kb9vqf | 1.) Set Konsole to use a semi-transparent background |
kb9vqf | 2.) Enable more than one desktop with different desktop wallpapers |
samelian | for a subset of sql results is not need view, but LIMIT directive |
kb9vqf | 3.) Observe that Konsole loads properly when it is started on desktop #1, but the backround is not loaded when it is started on any other desktop |
kb9vqf | 4.) Observe that switching the backround theme restores the backround of a Konsole application started on a desktop other than #1 |
kb9vqf | 5.) Observe that the fix only works while Konsole stays open ;-) |
MutantTurkey | samelian: http://ix.io/1yY hmmm :/ |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: This is all with SVN |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: See if you can replicate it, then see if you can find the SVN revision that caused it |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: ok, I'll try. |
kb9vqf | thanks |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: Also, in note 4.) above, I mean switching the Konsole background theme |
samelian | MutantTurkey: what is this? |
Xu_R | ok |
kb9vqf | thanks :) |
kb9vqf | poke me when you have the revision # |
Xu_R | np |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: sure |
MutantTurkey | samelian: errors from kdvi |
samelian | I do not see any error |
MutantTurkey | weird D: it seems my uploader keeps hanging up |
MutantTurkey | let us try this http://ix.io/1yZ |
MutantTurkey | 1 |
MutantTurkey | sorry again, wrong file |
*Xu_R|TDE has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | samelian: here is it finally: http://ix.io/1z0 |
samelian | MutantTurkey: you are checking for freetype? |
MutantTurkey | no |
samelian | do it |
samelian | you need HAVE_FREETYPE to be defined |
MutantTurkey | ok |
MutantTurkey | #cmakedefine HAVE_FREETYPE 1 |
MutantTurkey | like that? |
samelian | yes |
MutantTurkey | freetype2? |
samelian | yes |
MutantTurkey | ok |
MutantTurkey | samelian: ok, now it builds good :) now i just need to get linking flags right. |
MutantTurkey | I am having trouble finding kmultipage-shared, which is in kdegraphics/kviewshell/ |
samelian | are you sure is shared? |
samelian | check for typos :) |
MutantTurkey | yes |
MutantTurkey | it is |
MutantTurkey | what my problem is, it works in kfaxview, but i can't seem to get right in kdvi |
samelian | a target is visible anywhere in project |
MutantTurkey | oh okay here is the problem, remember when you told me to pull? it over wrote my cmakelist in kdegraphics/ so that was the problem, kviewshell wasn't built yet. |
MutantTurkey | switched the order up, kviewshell first |
MutantTurkey | now it will work i think |
samelian | actually, order no matter |
samelian | if matter, you will have big problems in parallel building environment |
MutantTurkey | well then there is a problem |
MutantTurkey | because kdvi needs kviewshell to be built first |
MutantTurkey | it depends on it. |
samelian | dependencies are solved automatically |
MutantTurkey | how? |
samelian | by cmake |
samelian | cmake knows that kdvi needs kviewshell |
samelian | and will build kviewshell first |
MutantTurkey | okay |
MutantTurkey | no work involved? |
samelian | nope |
samelian | this the power of cmake :) |
MutantTurkey | excellent |
*field_it1 has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: just a question - does arts depend on tqtinterface? |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: Yes |
kb9vqf | It uses some Qt code |
Xu_R | ok |
MutantTurkey | samelian: cool all built :) |
samelian | great |
samelian | arts must die, sometime in the future |
kb9vqf | in the future |
kb9vqf | maybe it can become a pulseaudio wrapper |
samelian | something generic, in any case |
MutantTurkey | what is arts? |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: no, do alsa or something. |
MutantTurkey | pulseaudio doesn't actually make anything easier from what i have seen. |
samelian | audio realtime server, or something like this |
kb9vqf | well, arts uses alsa |
MutantTurkey | It only gives headaches to people |
MutantTurkey | what is wrong with that then? |
kb9vqf | alsa has limits that arts tries to overcome |
kb9vqf | so arts can't die if we use alsa still |
kb9vqf | :) |
MutantTurkey | D: like what? |
samelian | arts provider network transparency |
kb9vqf | try simultaneous access and network stuff |
MutantTurkey | does pulse have networking? |
samelian | useless, in my opinion |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: why not write a plugin like framework for backends |
MutantTurkey | so alsa, pulse, etc can be supported |
kb9vqf | we probably could |
samelian | this is my ideea too |
MutantTurkey | that would have my vote |
samelian | xine as backend, or smth like this |
kb9vqf | but we've got a long way to go before we can start working on stuff like that :( |
Xu_R | oh god - fedora does a very ugly hack for multilib arts installations :( |
MutantTurkey | samelian: yes. |
MutantTurkey | xine is good choice |
MutantTurkey | I was at one point writing a xine based music server |
MutantTurkey | never got finished D: |
MutantTurkey | samelian: to build everything i just do cmake -DBUILD_ALL=ON ? |
samelian | yes |
MutantTurkey | ok thanks |
kb9vqf | samelian: How hard would it be to add a USE_QT4 flag to CMake? |
kb9vqf | So that it detects and uses the Qt4 version of TQt? |
samelian | kb9vqf: i'm not sure |
kb9vqf | oh, ok |
kb9vqf | I have the TQt for Qt4 experimental package built now |
kb9vqf | and I wanted to build arts/kdelibs/kdebase with CMake against Qt4 |
samelian | you can try, I suspect that we will have some problems with uic and moc |
MutantTurkey | samelian: i orginized kdegraphics/CMakeLists.txt from a-z is that good? |
samelian | sure |
MutantTurkey | ok |
MutantTurkey | samelian: building everything i have so far, to see if it is all in order |
*Baho has joined #trinity-desktop | |
samelian | ok |
samelian | you tried make -j 2 or make -j 4 ? |
MutantTurkey | samelian: I always have -j 3 on i am almost sure |
MutantTurkey | actually not. |
MutantTurkey | I have that just for Archlinux packaging |
MutantTurkey | i will test after i build it all first |
MutantTurkey | I had to fix something quckly and restart the build |
MutantTurkey | samelian: I finally understand how things can break out of source :P (finally started doing it) |
samelian | the problems with parallel building are impredictible |
MutantTurkey | unpredictable |
samelian | yes ;) |
samelian | I thinking in romanian ") |
MutantTurkey | :P |
samelian | I think only Tim can detect it properly |
samelian | with -j 8 or more |
MutantTurkey | D: that is ridiculous |
MutantTurkey | i only have 2 cores, which are HT |
MutantTurkey | and i run only -j3 |
samelian | you can run -j8 as well, but because is not fast enough, the test is useless |
MutantTurkey | yes |
MutantTurkey | -j3 is good, leaves one core open for regular stuff |
Baho | What about a quad core? |
MutantTurkey | Baho: what -j flag to use? |
Baho | -j4 |
MutantTurkey | is it HT? |
Baho | No AMD |
MutantTurkey | ah |
Baho | Phnom II with 8G memory |
MutantTurkey | nice nice |
MutantTurkey | Aton N330 with 2G memory :) |
Baho | Power house then ;) |
MutantTurkey | aha |
kb9vqf | samelian: In CMake how do I set a global include directory? |
kb9vqf | i.e. add an include directory every time g++ is invoked using the -I flag? |
samelian | kb9vqf: hang on |
samelian | kb9vqf: set( CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} -I/path/to/dir" |
kb9vqf | samelian: And that will set it for all subdirectories as well? |
samelian | yes |
samelian | subdirs inherit top level variables |
kb9vqf | ok |
*kb9vqf goes to try it | |
samelian | kb9vqf: actually you can use include_directories(), for this specific task |
samelian | include_directories( /path/to/my/headers ) |
kb9vqf | ah, ok |
kb9vqf | that looks cleaner |
samelian | yes, and correct way, actually |
samelian | kb9vqf: a hint: set( MYVAR value1 value2 value3 ) is equivalent with set( MYVAR "value1;value2;value3" ) |
kb9vqf | samelian: Is there a similar setting for the -L and -l gcc flags? |
samelian | yes |
*kb9vqf needs to add a linked library and path | |
samelian | link_directories() |
*K`zan has joined #trinity-desktop | |
samelian | for linking, if i'm not wrong, is: |
kb9vqf | samelian: Where is TQT_LIBRARIES set? |
samelian | set( CMAKE_REQUIRED_LIBRARIES mylib1 mylib2 ) |
samelian | i think in TQt.pc |
samelian | why? |
kb9vqf | just vurious |
kb9vqf | *curious |
samelian | is inherited from TQt.pc |
samelian | and detected, in FindTQt.cmake |
samelian | this line: pkg_search_module( TQT TQt ) |
kb9vqf | right |
samelian | TQT_INCLUDE_DIRS and TQT_LIBRARIES are automatically set |
kb9vqf | shouldn't that error out if TQt.pc is not found? |
samelian | actually, yer |
kb9vqf | right now it seems to continue, but leaves the env variables blank |
samelian | i think I forgot to make the right test |
kb9vqf | actually, never mind |
kb9vqf | locate is cAsE sEnSiTiV |
kb9vqf | tqt.pc is the actual filename |
samelian | are you sure? I made it "TQt.pc" |
kb9vqf | hmmmm |
kb9vqf | then I did it wrong |
kb9vqf | would explain a few things |
kb9vqf | and yes, then it needs to error out when TQt.pc is not found |
kb9vqf | samelian: ^^^^ |
samelian | yes, I will add it |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | samelian: Poke me when that's in SVN please :) |
samelian | ok |
samelian | kb9vqf: please check my spelling |
samelian | Unable to find TQt!\n Try to set PKG_CONFIG_PATH to directory\n where TQt.pc file is located. |
kb9vqf | Unable to find TQt!\n Try to set PKG_CONFIG_PATH to the directory\n in which the TQt.pc file is located. |
samelian | thx |
kb9vqf | np |
samelian | tmoc is not found. Check if TQt is correct installed or try to set TQT_TMOC_EXECUTABLE to path to tmoc |
samelian | kb9vqf: ^^ |
samelian | actually, tmoc can be found in these ways: |
kb9vqf | samelian: tmoc is not found. Please ensure that TQt is properly installed, and try setting TQT_TMOC_EXECUTABLE to the path in which tmoc resides |
kb9vqf | samelian: tmoc could not be found. Please ensure that TQt is properly installed, and try setting TQT_TMOC_EXECUTABLE to the path in which tmoc resides |
samelian | 1) cmake -DTQT_TMOC_EXECUTABLE=/path/to/tmoc |
samelian | 2) is searched in -DTQTDIR=/path/to/tqt |
samelian | 3) is searched in variable environment TQTDIR |
kb9vqf | samelian: tmoc could not be found. Please ensure that TQt is properly installed, that TQTDIR is set to the path in which TQt resides, and/or that TQT_TMOC_EXECUTABLE is set to the path in which tmoc resides |
kb9vqf | that's the best I can come up with |
samelian | ok, it's enough info |
kb9vqf | is this patch going to be large? I have a working copy here that I don't want to rewrite if I don't have to..... |
samelian | few lines |
*techie26 has joined #trinity-desktop | |
samelian | kb9vqf: http://paste.lug.ro/131058 |
kb9vqf | oh, good |
kb9vqf | three lines is not bad at all :) |
samelian | adapt it to your code and commit it to svn |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | thanks |
samelian | welcome |
samelian | I hope it works, I have not tested it |
samelian | you can cut "PATHS ${BINDIR}" |
samelian | is very unlikely that tmoc will be located in trinity binary dir |
samelian | my english is so bad :( |
kb9vqf | it's not THAT bad |
kb9vqf | I can understand you :) |
samelian | i know that you understand me, but i'm frustrated :) |
kb9vqf | samelian: I committed it in SVN revision 1225433. |
samelian | ok, thx |
kb9vqf | Along with preliminary TQt for Qt4 support :) |

Piki | hi |
Xu_R | Piki: you should stop joining channels before the hostmask is set ;) |
Xu_R | Piki: and to your drupal response: use views |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: in order to find that konsole bug, I started pushing builds for fedora 14 to the build server - which means I should have something to test with soon. |
Piki | Xu_R: why should i stop joining channels? this is the only channel that i seem to rejoin, and it's the last one that it joins |
Piki | Xu_R: i have views installed, the only thing i can't figure out is how to limit it to 5 items |
Xu_R | Piki: hm? Well, [21:09] *** Piki!~piki@66.233.157.161 has joined #trinity-desktop *** Piki!~piki@66.233.157.161 has quit IRC: Changing host *** Piki!~piki@unaffiliated/piki has joined #trinity-desktop shows that your client joined too quickly - freenode faq advises a delay of 5 seconds :) |
Xu_R | Piki: there should be a filter option there. |
Piki | like i said, this is the only channel it happens on, i'm not gettin double voice from AL-Bot or cahnserv on #arklinux |
Xu_R | Piki: I was just saying -_-" |
Piki | the filter is what i'm using in views to get the correct content type in drupal, i just can't figure out how to choose a set number of recent items, but it displays in the right order |
Piki | Xu_R: so am i, no need to overreact, not looking for a fight, i've had quite enough of those to deal with over the weekend |
Xu_R | ...wasn't...overreacting.......anyways. |
Xu_R | damnit. I'd help, but my site just froze and is starting to lag... my hosting provider has gotten consistently worse... |
Piki | right, well i'm just looking at past experience as to when to expect an overreaction, and thus far past experienc hasn't been wrong yet with this... |

nettezzaumana | hi there |
nettezzaumana | anyone alive here? |
nettezzaumana | i need to discuss a one thing: i'm considering to become package maintainer of trinity desktop for openindiana (openindiana.org) |
samelian | nettezzaumana: is too early :) |
samelian | most of trinity people sleeping at this time |
nettezzaumana | ok, no prob samelian |
nettezzaumana | US|chineese guys ? :D |
samelian | US, yes |
nettezzaumana | samelian: i'll check also some mailinglist |
nettezzaumana | samelian: my base problem is, that i get ton of compilation errors on sunos .. some of them could be fixed by gcc but suncc didn't pass at all |
nettezzaumana | **by using gcc |
samelian | nettezzaumana: if we can, we will try to fix it |
nettezzaumana | samelian: i don't think that you will bother with supporting !gcc |
samelian | why not? |
samelian | of course, or main platform is linux |
nettezzaumana | samelian: thanks for reaction .. i'm now in office .. i'll subscribe to mailinglist and we'll go on later |
samelian | but if you can made pathes, we will be happy to incorporate it into trinity |
nettezzaumana | samelian: well, doing some hot fixes without deeper knowledge of software itself is not good solution |
nettezzaumana | i can do patches but honestly i'm KDE user and not developer |
samelian | we will review any patch, ofc |
nettezzaumana | ok |

Xu_R|School | :-\ |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | wasn't sure |
*kb9vqf would like it fixed ;-) | |
Xu_R|School | I know :) |
MutantTurkey_ | what bug is this/ |
kb9vqf | it's a somewhat obscure Konsole bug introduced somewhere after 3.5.12 |
kb9vqf | the channel log has more info |
MutantTurkey_ | you mentioned transparency... yeah i recall |
kb9vqf | seems to be the only major problem caused by the transition of kdebase to TQt |
kb9vqf | from what I can see at any rate |
MutantTurkey_ | finally rememberd i can do -j3 on my make with cmake, i didn't even think of it. |
Xu_R|School | bbl, lunch is over |
MutantTurkey_ | weird samelian, when i build kpovmodeler with DBUILD_ALL it breaks, then when i build it alone, it is fine |
MutantTurkey_ | weird |
MutantTurkey_ | oh well i'll wrk it out when i get home |
kb9vqf | samelian: Where/how is the uic executable name set in CMake? |
samelian | kb9vqf: hang on |

kb9vqf | ok, thanks |
*MutantTurkey_ has joined #trinity-desktop | |

MutantTurkey_ | it seems like it cannot find the correct headers or something. |
MutantTurkey_ | oh got it |
*Xu_R|School has joined #trinity-desktop | |
samelian | kb9vqf: you know what is kdepim/indexlib? |
samelian | seems that is not used anywhere |
samelian | actually is not kde/qt library |
samelian | is something based on boost |
samelian | I propose to remove it from kdepim, at least because is not Qt application/library |
kb9vqf | samelian: If it is truly not used anywhere then go ahead and removeit |
samelian | kb9vqf: you can check if on debian or ubuntu there is no libindex.so ? |
samelian | if exists, you can check if is used by any other program? |
kb9vqf | samelian: From what I can tell it is used in libindex0-trinity, which is not required by other programs but is suggested for KMail |
samelian | i see |
samelian | but I am using kmail at this moment, and it not complain about libindex |
samelian | ok, I will keep it for the moment, will analyze it later |
samelian | kb9vqf: you know if static library built with -fPIC affect the performance in any way when is linked to an executable? |
kb9vqf | no I do not knwo |
kb9vqf | *know |
samelian | ok, will compile static libs twice :) |
samelian | pic and non pic |
MutantTurkey | what is the point of fpic? |
MutantTurkey | Position independant code, |
samelian | yes |
samelian | -fPIC is usually needed only for shared libraries |
MutantTurkey | ok |
MutantTurkey | I only enable STATIC_PIC in cmakefiles when it requires right? |
samelian | when is used only for linking to shared libs, yes |
MutantTurkey | ok |
samelian | if is used for executables, should be "STATIC" |
MutantTurkey | right |
kb9vqf | samelian: This might help: http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/hardened/pic-internals.xml#doc_chap7 |
kb9vqf | The performance difference is negligible |
MutantTurkey | every extra bit of performance that can be extracted would be good |
samelian | yes, I think MutantTurkey is right, even in my specific case is not very important |
samelian | MutantTurkey: in any case, do not confuse kdeinit executables with regular executables |
samelian | kb9vqf: morning someone asked for help for packaging trinity for openindiana |
MutantTurkey | samelian: ok |
kb9vqf | yes I noticed |
samelian | which seems an opensolaris distro based |
kb9vqf | I can't provide much help there unfortunately |
kb9vqf | I'm on AMD64 primarily here |
kb9vqf | Linux/AMD64 |
samelian | i am using 32 bit |
kb9vqf | he can ask us questions on IRC of course, but I don't know how helpful/knowledgable any of us are going to be with respect to OpenSolaris |
samelian | we can try, anyway |
MutantTurkey | I am having plenty of issues with building this all samelian :/ |
samelian | show me errors |
MutantTurkey | when i build OOS, it get library errors for freetype on kpovmodeler |
samelian | freetype is detected , right? |
MutantTurkey | yes. |

MutantTurkey | samelian: http://ix.io/1zf |
MutantTurkey | it looks as if it detects the module 'freetype2' but then it doesn't seem to include it? I'm about to check out the cmakefiles.txt first |

MutantTurkey | ok thank you |
MutantTurkey | here is the other problem: kdvi needs kmultipage-shared to be built, but it is built by kviewshell |
MutantTurkey | what do i do? |
samelian | you use BUILD_ALL, or no? |
samelian | MutantTurkey: if you don't use BUILD_ALL, pass to cmake -DBUILD_KVIEWSHELL=ON -DBUILD_KDVI |

MutantTurkey | if they just want to build -KDVI we need it to also build kviewshell automagically |

samelian | kb9vqf: i'm not sure what to do with kitchensync, seems that is using obsolete/unmaintained libopensync versions |
kb9vqf | part of kdepim I take it? |
samelian | gentoo do not provide anymore these versions of libopensync |
samelian | yes |
samelian | actually on gentoo, app-pda/libopensync is marked for remove |
samelian | seems that we have several apps (kitchensync, kmobile and kandy) which try to do in various mode the same think |
samelian | thing* |
kb9vqf | can we disable opensync support for those apps? |
kb9vqf | with #ifdefs and such? |
samelian | the opensync is needed only for kitchensync |
samelian | i'm pretty sure that kitchensync will not work without opensync, at all |
samelian | hmm, seems that libopensync-plugin-kdepim is provided in kde-sunset overlay, by kde3 maintainers |
samelian | I will try to use it |
samelian | but for long term, we should remove or rewrite these applications |
samelian | # Samuli Suominen <ssuominen@gentoo.org> (10 Feb 2011) |
samelian | # Masked for QA. Talk to QA before touching this mask. |
samelian | # Unmaintained and completely broken wrt bugs |
samelian | # 185475, 211262, 247268, 276220, 287751, 293501, 298109, |
samelian | # 301729, 308801, 311763, 311765, 328691, 340605, 348483, |
samelian | # 352506, 237366, 250054 |
samelian | # Removal in 30 days |
kb9vqf | fully agree |
kb9vqf | who has a palm pilot anyway these days? |
samelian | right |
kb9vqf | I say put in a CMake switch |
kb9vqf | disabled by default |
kb9vqf | to remove kitchensync completely |
samelian | ok |
kb9vqf | that way if someone *does* have a palm pilot he or she can fight with getting it working themselves ;-) |
samelian | hehe |
kb9vqf | eventually we should probably put an "unmaintained" directory in SVN |
kb9vqf | and move obsolete apps there |
samelian | good ideea |
samelian | idea* |
kb9vqf | after CMake is finished of course ;-) |
kb9vqf | CMake makes it easy to do that |
kb9vqf | split off part of a module |
samelian | yes, we have BUILD_KITCHENSYNC flag anyway |
kb9vqf | ok |
samelian | I will switch to OFF by default, even if BUILD_ALL is activated |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | that is a sensible policy for all deprecated code |
samelian | kb9vqf: actually I will remove CMakeLists.txt from kitchensync, at all |
samelian | because I cannot build it |
kb9vqf | keep them in for now |
kb9vqf | I can build it here |
kb9vqf | for testing |
kb9vqf | unless the source itself is completely broken ;-) |
samelian | hmm, I will try, but because I can test it, will fail probably |
samelian | can't* |
kb9vqf | i can do simple fixes |
samelian | ok, I will try to make it blindly :) |
kb9vqf | since it's obsolete anyway people shouldn't expect it to work :) |
samelian | sure |
*field_it1 has joined #trinity-desktop | |
samelian | kb9vqf: thanks to gentoo guys, who keeping older versions in portage tree, kitchensync was built finally |
samelian | note that you need libopensync-0.22 |
kb9vqf | right |
kb9vqf | I already have a special debian package for it :) |
samelian | hehe, ok |
kb9vqf | thanks |
samelian | remained only docs and kontact, and fukin' kdepim is finished :) |
*K`zan has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | GREAT |
kb9vqf | so those two items still remain? |
kb9vqf | i.e. still need to be done? |
samelian | kb9vqf: actually I just finished docs |
samelian | now remained only kontact |
samelian | kb9vqf: I think you can trigger kdepim build, to detect bugs |
samelian | do not forget to activate all WITH_* options |
kb9vqf | OK |
kb9vqf | will do |
kb9vqf | samelian: did you want admin rights to the forum? |
kb9vqf | i moved it to a non public URL for cleanup |
samelian | i think I will not have time for it |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | i'll leave it deactivated for now |
kb9vqf | if anyone wants to take over anti-spam/admin stuff let me know |
*kb9vqf does not think he will have enough time either | |
kb9vqf | personally I like the mailing lists :) |
samelian | hehe, old fashion :) |
kb9vqf | but so much easier to use IMHO |
samelian | maybe for us |
kb9vqf | seems so |
kb9vqf | i know other people prefer fora |
kb9vqf | but I never seem to check them frequently |
MutantTurkey | what a great game! |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: got a nice email from a guy named tony today, was really encouraging and he seems like a nice dude |

kb9vqf | samelian: Can you convert a small library to CMake for me? |
samelian | kb9vqf: sure |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | it's in my secondary SVN tree |
kb9vqf | hang on |
kb9vqf | http://svn.trinitydesktop.org/svn/trinity/main/dependencies/dbus-tqt |
kb9vqf | samelian: Do you have an SVN account on that server? |
samelian | ok |
samelian | wait |
samelian | i dont't |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | hang on |
kb9vqf | samelian: OK, check your Email |
samelian | ok |
kb9vqf | samelian: Also, I don't think the source code for that package will compile as-is; I just got done with initial TQt conversion and it needs cleanup work still |
kb9vqf | But, I can't compile it with Autotools, so I need initial CMake support before I can fix the source itself ;-) |
samelian | kb9vqf: ok |
kb9vqf | thanks |
kb9vqf | poke me when you have something in SVN :) |
kb9vqf | it needs TQt |
kb9vqf | not sure what else |
samelian | will take few hours, I think |
kb9vqf | sure |
kb9vqf | take your time |
samelian | kb9vqf: how I will checkout it? |
kb9vqf | samelian: Do you need the CMake externals added to that directory? |
samelian | yes |
samelian | for detecting tqt and qt |
kb9vqf | samelian: svn co http://svn.trinitydesktop.org/svn/trinity/main/dependencies/dbus-tqt . --username=samelian |
kb9vqf | hang on while I add the externals |
kb9vqf | samelian: OK |
kb9vqf | externals are in |
samelian | ok |
kb9vqf | samelian: You may want to update your working copy |
kb9vqf | I had forgotten to rename some header files |
samelian | ok |
samelian | kb9vqf: the library will be named libdbus-tqt.so ? |
kb9vqf | samelian: yes |
samelian | libdbus-tqt.so.0.0.0 ? |
kb9vqf | ok with me |
samelian | ok |
kb9vqf | although I have never seen a library with that version number before... |
samelian | kb9vqf: your svn is not synchronized with svn.kde? |
kb9vqf | samelian: no |
kb9vqf | this is more convenient for me with respect to rapidly changing packages |
kb9vqf | once something has been stabilized I might move it to the KDE SVN |
samelian | please sync TDEMacros.cmake |
samelian | from kde to yuor |
kb9vqf | samelian: the external directory is synced |
kb9vqf | svn up should do the trick |
samelian | i see |
kb9vqf | looks like you might be running into the problem that drives me nuts when I use the KDE SVN |
kb9vqf | specifically a delay of up to 5 minutes |
samelian | ah, probably |
kb9vqf | that's the main reason I have this package in my local SVN repo |
kb9vqf | :) |
kb9vqf | all those 5 minute delays add up fast |
samelian | seem ok now |
kb9vqf | yes |
kb9vqf | makes sense |
kb9vqf | you were close to the 10:10 CDT sync time |
*field_it has joined #trinity-desktop | |
*Xu_R|School has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | Xu_R|School: Any progress on finding the Konsole bug? |
Xu_R|School | sorry kb9vqf: none so far. thought I had something but it didn't seem right... |
kb9vqf | ok |
Xu_R|School | btw, kb9vqf, are the ubutnu trinity nightly builds working? |
Xu_R|School | *ubuntu |
kb9vqf | for kdelibs & kdebase |
samelian | kb9vqf: what is qdbusconnection.tqmoc? |
kb9vqf | hmmm |
kb9vqf | looks like a generated file |
kb9vqf | where is it? |
Xu_R|School | kb9vqf: OK, because I am impatient and cannot wait for my server to build everything correctly ;) |
samelian | but why *tmoc insteat 8moc? |
kb9vqf | samelian: Probably one of the automated conversion glitches |
kb9vqf | it should be .moc |
samelian | you can convert it to .moc? |
samelian | prefixed with "t" ? |
kb9vqf | samelian: It should be .moc |
kb9vqf | I ran the source through my automated Qt-->TQt conversion process |
kb9vqf | and there are still some problems |
samelian | aha |
kb9vqf | Xu_R|School: kdepim is going to be added to the nightly builds soon |
kb9vqf | I just have to figure out a libcaldav detection problem |
Xu_R|School | kb9vqf: :D |
samelian | kb9vqf: we can move header files to root of dbus-tqt? |
kb9vqf | samelian: sure |
kb9vqf | why not |
samelian | because they are separate, automoc can't generate it |
kb9vqf | the rest of the tqtinterface has all its headers in include/ |
samelian | please, do it |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | hang on |
Xu_R|School | laters, lunch is over :) |
kb9vqf | samelian: done |
samelian | thx |
kb9vqf | samelian: can I delete the admin directory now? |
kb9vqf | or do you need it still? |
samelian | sure |
samelian | i do not need it |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | samelian: Do you need any of the automake files right now? |
kb9vqf | Or can I purge them? |
samelian | delete it |
kb9vqf | ok |
samelian | kb9vqf: TQ_EXPORT is defined somewhere? |
kb9vqf | samelian: Yes |
kb9vqf | It should be part of TQT |
samelian | aha |
samelian | kb9vqf: TQT_STATIC_CONST missing |
samelian | same for TQ_SIGNALS |
kb9vqf | samelian: Which files? |
samelian | TQ_SLOTS, TQT_STATIC_CONST_IMPL |
kb9vqf | right |
kb9vqf | those are all incorrect conversions |
samelian | In file included from /home/serghei/projects/svn.trinitydesktop.org/tqdbusconnection.cpp:27:0: |
samelian | /home/serghei/projects/svn.trinitydesktop.org/tqdbusconnection.h:656:5: error: 'TQT_STATIC_CONST' does not name a type |
kb9vqf | like I said, the conversion was very rough |
kb9vqf | samelian: Do you have preliminary CMake support available? |
kb9vqf | It might be best to commit what you have |
samelian | sort of |
kb9vqf | then let me try to build it |
samelian | hang on |
kb9vqf | and fix the TQt conversion bugs |
samelian | kb9vqf: commited |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | I'll poke you when I have a better TQt conversion commited |
samelian | ok |
kb9vqf | samelian: How do I build? |
kb9vqf | normally I submit a job to the build system |
kb9vqf | this time I can't |
samelian | just cmake /path/to/dbus-tqt |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | then make? |
kb9vqf | seems so |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | thz |
kb9vqf | *thx |
kb9vqf | samelian: ok, compilation seems to work now |
kb9vqf | linking is broken, but I would expect that since you are not done with CMake yet :) |
samelian | ok, i will update svn tree and I will try to finish it |
kb9vqf | ok |
samelian | kb9vqf: I have a strange problem |
samelian | /var/tmp/dbus-tqt.build/tqdbusconnection_p.moc.cpp:22:52: error: no 'const char* TQT_DBusConnectionPrivate::className() const' member function declared in class 'TQT_DBusConnectionPrivate' |
samelian | /var/tmp/dbus-tqt.build/tqdbusconnection_p.moc.cpp:27:41: error: ISO C++ does not permit 'QObject::metaObj' to be defined as 'TQT_DBusConnectionPrivate::metaObj' |
samelian | I'm not sure how to handle it |
kb9vqf | samelian: I know what that is :) |
kb9vqf | In tqdbusconnection_p.h look for TQ_OBJECT |
kb9vqf | above it put Q_OBJECT |
samelian | aha |
kb9vqf | did that fix it? |
*techie26 has joined #trinity-desktop | |
samelian | hang on |
samelian | kb9vqf: seems ok now, thc |
samelian | thx |
kb9vqf | np |
kb9vqf | how far along are you? |
kb9vqf | just curious :) |
samelian | almost done, at linking stage |
kb9vqf | great! |
samelian | I was blocked by Q_OBJECT problem |
*kb9vqf wants to update kdebase soon to use this instead of the original dbus-qt3 source | |
kb9vqf | that way I can build kdebase for Qt4 :) |
samelian | i see |
samelian | kb9vqf: shared library is done |
samelian | i have some compiling problem with dbusxml2qt3 |
samelian | you can check? |
kb9vqf | sure |
kb9vqf | commit it? |
samelian | yes |
kb9vqf | samelian: there is some bad code in there |
kb9vqf | hang on |
kb9vqf | samelian: Fixed in SVN |
samelian | ok |
kb9vqf | the original authors decided it would be a good idea to use "signals" as a variable name :-P |
kb9vqf | problem is "signals" is a reserved Qt keyword |
kb9vqf | not sure why it didn't show up before |
samelian | hehe |
samelian | kb9vqf: dbusxml2qt3 done |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | let me build check... |
samelian | I will made .pc file a little later |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | if I wanted to make the .pc file how would I do that? |
kb9vqf | e.g. an example? |
kb9vqf | samelian: I added the .pc file for you |
kb9vqf | it's in SVN if you want to make sure it is correct :)P |
*Xu_R|School has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Xu_R|School | looks like we got attention from Mageia :D |
kb9vqf | ? |
Xu_R|School | someone from Mageia wants to import Trinity 3.5.12 into the Mageia repositories |
Xu_R|School | or package Trinity for them, at least. |
*kb9vqf has never heard of Mageia | |
Xu_R|School | Mandriva fork |
kb9vqf | ah |
Xu_R|School | they've released 2 alphas |
kb9vqf | so they don't think KDE4 is easy to use, eh? |
kb9vqf | :) |
Xu_R|School | and they have a very wide dev community - if they can include trinity, it would boost support here |
Xu_R|School | yup :) |
kb9vqf | sounds good to me |
kb9vqf | they should find it much easier to do with CMake ;-) |
Xu_R|School | Yes - but knowing that SVN is unstable, they wish to push out Trinity before release |
Xu_R|School | so, i'm guessing 3.5.12 - with some random autoconf and automake workarounds - and then we should find a Trinity in Mageia (hoping they go through with it) |
kb9vqf | oh, ok |
kb9vqf | well, if they want to fight with Autohell it's their perrogative :-P |
Xu_R|School | yup lol |
kb9vqf | *prerogative |
*kb9vqf has lots of IRC lag today | |
Xu_R|School | ah. |
samelian | kb9vqf: pc file seems fine |
samelian | i think you can remove dbus-1-qt3.pc.in |
kb9vqf | ok |

samelian | not sure what is stamp-h.in and subdirs |
*saleem has joined #trinity-desktop | |
saleem | hi, i installed trinity packages on wheezy, all went smooth but synaptic will not run with root password , how do i fix it? |
saleem | here are some pastes also http://dpaste.com/524962/ |
saleem | kb9vqf : would you please guide me how to fix this issue? |
*MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | saleem: It looks like you are not running those commands from within an X session |
kb9vqf | if you are on a text mode virtual terminal, use sudo instead of gksudo |
saleem | kb9vqf, its a kind of general issue, tried running konqueror as root and it refused to accept root pw also |
kb9vqf | if you become root through 'su root' or similar it won't work |
saleem | alt+f2 kdesu konqueror ....root pass word.....doesnt run either |
kb9vqf | saleem: try this |
kb9vqf | from within your running Trinity desktop, start Konsole |
kb9vqf | then type kdesu konqueror / |
saleem | ok |
kb9vqf | pastebin the output for m |
kb9vqf | *me |
saleem | ok |
saleem | it tells me icorrect password, try again, and when i cancel it there is no output on console |
kb9vqf | saleem: Are you typing your password or the root password? |
saleem | the root password |
kb9vqf | try your password |
kb9vqf | sudo usually wants your password |
saleem | tried that also, same error |
saleem | same happens to syanptic |
kb9vqf | what happens if you run 'sudo konqueror /' instead? |
saleem | it says im not sudoers file. This incident will be reported. |
kb9vqf | there's your problem |
kb9vqf | you don't have permission to use sudo |
kb9vqf | you will need to become root, then issue the 'visudo' command and add yourself as a superuser |
saleem | but konqueror and synaptic should run with root password , isnt it so normally ? |
kb9vqf | Trinity uses sudo |
saleem | ic |
kb9vqf | normally sudo does not allow you to enter the root password |
saleem | i will get sudo then |
kb9vqf | I am aware debian does things a bit differently normally |
saleem | and report back |
kb9vqf | but I am not a true Debian maintainer :-) |
kb9vqf | I use Ubuntu for daily tasks, and tend not to catch Debian-specific glitches |
saleem | but in konsole trinity is accepting root password for apt commands |
kb9vqf | what apt command are you running exactly? |
saleem | kb9vqf, im trying to make a trinity kde minimal remaster on top of antiX, i have some observations , i will appreciate if you read this thread please |
saleem | http://forum.mepiscommunity.org/viewtopic.php?f=40&t=29861&start=20 |
kb9vqf | sorry, I'm not very familiar with the environment you are using |
saleem | norma apt-commands, apt-get update, apt-get dist-upgrade etc, they work fine with root password on konsole |
kb9vqf | saleem: So you do not use sudo with them? |
saleem | no |
kb9vqf | well that's part of the problem |
kb9vqf | apt-get must have a mechanism to ask for the root password |
kb9vqf | Trinity does not |
saleem | i have to use sudo everywhere |
kb9vqf | no, but apt-get is the exception, not the rule |
kb9vqf | I was not even aware that apt-get had that functionality |
kb9vqf | like I said I don't use Debian on a daily basis, so I don't know what they did to the authentication system to make it work that way |
kb9vqf | it is quite different from Ubuntu though |
kb9vqf | you should probably ask on the mailing list |
saleem | this made it possible for me to install and work on trinity environment without sudo |
kb9vqf | we have some real Debian users there that can help much more than I can :) |
saleem | or else i would have been stuck not knowing that trinity uses sudo |
kb9vqf | it is possible that Trinity has a bug (i.e. it might need to fall back to su or similar) |
kb9vqf | but I wouldn't know about it |
kb9vqf | Like I said, check with the mailing list |
kb9vqf | the other Debian users there are quite helpful |
saleem | i will sure because if i want a working and functional trinity remaster i must fix these glitches on it |
saleem | interesting |
saleem | now sudo complains of another issue |
saleem | (synaptic:7081): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: :0 |
saleem | i can run synaptic now after installing sux and running synaptic as sux |

Piki | good news is, i've got a working Ark install, just need to talk to our head dev about getting my network working (my DHCP broke with one of the updates), so you guys will have a bit more help with testing/finding bugs and cmake porting |
kb9vqf | One step at a time.... :-) |
Piki | kb9vqf: i can grab svn in debian and build in Ark :-) |
kb9vqf | hehe |
Piki | no telling when our dev will appear, though he has been on our channel the past couple weekends |
Piki | kb9vqf: btw, i don't know if this is Debian or trinity, but on Squeeze stable with TDE 3.5.12, things seem a bit laggy at times. i did a basic install (base system, laptop, and ssh server, but no gui or anything else), added the lines for trinity to sources.list from the install instructions, and from there installed trinity and x.org |
kb9vqf | probaby debian |
kb9vqf | check your CPU usage |
Piki | sometimes when i click or type something, it takes a moment to respond |
kb9vqf | I bet Xorg is using a lot of CPU |
kb9vqf | what graphics device are you using? |
Piki | i've been keeping top running in a VT, so far my CPU is <4% |
Piki | an intel device, lemme get the model from lspci |
kb9vqf | ah, intel |
kb9vqf | yuck |
kb9vqf | I see something similar on my Intel system |
Piki | those have worked quite well for me |
kb9vqf | you do know about the EXA/XAA/etc problems, right? |
Piki | not very good for graphics-intensive apps, but is very responsive otherwise |
Piki | kb9vqf: no |
kb9vqf | ah |
kb9vqf | there was a time not too long ago when the Intel driver changed 2D acceleration methods |
kb9vqf | Debian picked up on that change IIRC |
kb9vqf | for some people it made things faster, for others it made them slower, and still others found Xorg to be unstable :-P |
kb9vqf | I don't remember the details OTOH |
kb9vqf | but the "my Xorg is slow" problem sounds familiar |
Piki | it seemed much faster in Lenny |
kb9vqf | right |
Piki | in fact, my main problem in Lenny was sound |
kb9vqf | that used the old accel method |
kb9vqf | theoretically there is an Xorg.conf flag that can be used to change the accel method |
Piki | now, my sound problem seems fixed (except that it sounds like it passes gas for certain events) |
Piki | and it's graphics |
kb9vqf | http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=597696 |
Piki | that are giving my troubles, though all seems fine if i switch to a VT |
kb9vqf | here is some additional info on accel modes http://www.nixternal.com/intel-945-video-hint/ |
Piki | eh? desktop effects fixes the problem? seems to have the opposite effect in Ark -- enabling them makes my GUI unbearably slow, while disabling them makes things run perfectly, and that's with KDE4 |
Piki | (as perfectly as possible with KDE4) |
kb9vqf | 2D accel |
kb9vqf | Personally Intel has always been flaky for m |
kb9vqf | *me |
kb9vqf | on older distros they are perfect |
kb9vqf | but on the newer distros it seems to be one problem after another |
Piki | Intel video doesn't do well in windows with the Aero enabled or with graphics-intensive games, but works quite well in Linux |
Piki | in Windows 7 running World of Warcraft on my current card, i averages about 21FPS, but in Linux under wine, i average about 33FPS |
Piki | with spikes up to 40FPS |
Piki | my windows test was the login screen, my linux test was running around semi-crowded aread of the game on a freind's account |
Piki | so linux would probably get higher at the login screen |
*Tekk_ has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Tekk_ | what's the flag I need for building tqt? It keeps saying that I need to specify a qt version and the variable to set doesn't seem to be in the readme |
kb9vqf | Tekk_: I think samelian just changed that; you can try using -DWITH_QT3="ON" but if that doesn't work then you need to wait until tomorrow to ask him |
kb9vqf | we've both been working on CMake today so it may not be 100% right now in SVN |
Tekk_ | yeah, that seems to be it |
kb9vqf | ok |
Tekk_ | thanks |
Piki | also -DQTDIR=/opt/qt -DQT_LIBRARY_DIRS=/opt/qt/lib |
Tekk_ | mhm |
Piki | ugh, keep getting d/ced from kde svn |
Tekk_ | yep |
Piki | i may need to grab my svn script |
Tekk_ | Piki: it's apparently affecting all of anonsvn |
Tekk_ | I was in #kde asking about it earlier :P |
Piki | i'll get my script uploaded if anyone is interested. it's a bash script that will loop through until it either gets the CTRL+C signal or a success signal from the command being run, or until it reachs a max number of retries |
Tekk_ | ah, nice |
Xu_R|Away | kb9vqf: I've been trying to communicate with Mageia Devs |
Xu_R|Away | oops |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: Trinity cannot be installed alongsite KDE4 if in /usr, correct? |
Xu_R | I'm going through a hell of a time trying to convince these people, they're so branched. |
Tekk_ | how do I apply the qt3 patch? |
Tekk_ | it seems to be going across multiple files in that single diff file |
Xu_R | Tekk_: untar the qt3 tarball |
Tekk_ | Xu_R: mhm |
Xu_R | Tekk_: then, without cd-ing to the qt3 directory |
Xu_R | patch -Np0 -i pathtopatch.patch |
Tekk_ | mhm |
Xu_R | then you've patched it... |
Tekk_ | oh cool |
Tekk_ | thanks |
Xu_R | !seen kb9vqf |
tbottu | kb9vqf was last seen 14 minutes and 42 seconds ago, saying 'ok' in #trinity-desktop. |
*Xu_R will wait a while then - he has to explain it somehow on mageia-dev | |
Piki | http://dl.dropbox.com/u/21651433/trinity-svn-up <-- nothing fancy, just a bash script loop to cd to the svn dir, run "svn cleanup" as a safety, and then "svn up" |
Piki | it'll check for CTRL+C and a success signal |
Piki | you can replace the cd and svn commands with whatever, i found that from someone who wrote it for rsync and i changed it for svn |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: oh, and that konsole bug - I think I'm getting close to the area - I bisected the changes from 3.5.10 to 3.5.11... seems like a good place for something to hide. |
Piki | one quirk i just discovered: if you try to do "sh trinity-svn-up". it will give an error about sigint, but if you set it to executable and do "./trinity-svn-up", it's fine |
Xu_R | Piki: on debian? Remember, debian sh uses dash, not bash |
*Tekk_ has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Piki | Tekk_: did you get the link to my svn script? |
Tekk_ | Piki: yeah |
Tekk_ | thanks for that :D |
Piki | Tekk_: make sure you set it to executable and run it as "./trinity-svn-up", using "sh trinity-svn-up" will give you a sigint error |
Tekk_ | yeah |
Tekk_ | oh |
Tekk_ | weird |
Tekk_ | okay |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: here's a start: http://websvn.kde.org/branches/trinity/kdebase/konsole/konsole/konsole.cpp?annotate=1181781&diff_format=h#l3620 I've compared the initial branch from 3.5.10 to this one, so if the background isn't changing it might just be a TQt bug |
Piki | Tekk_: oh, and i don't know if you looked inside the script, but make sure you change the "cd /home/piki/trinity" command inside the to point to your svn copy |
Tekk_ | mhm |
Tekk_ | actually I'm just waiting for qt3 to build atm :P |
Tekk_ | hoping that getting rid of the -j flag gets rid of the problem |
Tekk_ | agh |
Tekk_ | error while loading shared libraries: libqt-mt.so.3 |
Tekk_ | is qt3 a dependency for qt3? O.o |
Xu_R | no... |
*Tekk_ has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Tekk_ | are there any plans on moving from svn to git? |
*Tekk_ has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: Hi |
kb9vqf | 3.5.11 works fine |
kb9vqf | so does 3.5.12 |
kb9vqf | the problem is between 3.5.12 and HEAD |
Tekk_ | actually this is probably a good place to ask... |
Tekk_ | when I build the patched qt3(haven't tested the unpatched) it always fails, starting with |
Tekk_ | /qt-x11-free-3.3.8b/bin/uic: error while loading shared libraries: libqt-mt.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory |
Tekk_ | is qt3 for some reason a dependency of qt3? O.o |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: AH, ok. I looked in the wrong place ;) |
kb9vqf | oh, oops :) |
Xu_R | xD |
kb9vqf | no, bisect from 3.5.12 to HEAD |
kb9vqf | you will probably find it this time :) |
Xu_R | hehe, maybe :) |
Xu_R | but it is late now, and i've got a precalculus test to not fail tomorrow morning :-\ I will try to find it during lunch tmrw then. |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: night! |

affect | I updated all packages and it still does |
samelian | affect: without backtrace, we can't help you too much |
affect | should I install additional packages to get a backtrace? |
affect | I guess I didn't have it last time I checked |
samelian | not sure, I think depends by distro |
affect | hm, arch |
affect | hm I guess I need libbacktrace but it pulls liblogfile dep which can't be downloaded since the corresponding server isn;t responding |
affect | gee |
*mutantturkey has joined #trinity-desktop | |
mutantturkey | o/ |
affect | \o/ |
affect | are you by chance responsible for desktop crash on startup? |
mutantturkey | yessir |
mutantturkey | a while ago i think David Rankin was dealing with it but i haven't spoken to him in a while |
affect | I remember having read somewhere that it was fixed but I'm still getting it in arch after upgrade |
affect | but wait I just installed libbacktrace, maybe it'll spit up something useful |
*affect has joined #trinity-desktop | |
affect | http://pastebin.com/UFdb1TZ3 |
affect | hopefully it makes sense for anyone |
mutantturkey | did you check the mailing list logs? |
mutantturkey | I feel like someone also did a backtrace, you might want to compare see if it's the same issue ( probably is) |
mutantturkey | I don't know if its been fixed yet. |
mutantturkey | then I say report a bug in our trackert |
mutantturkey | tbottu: bugs? |
tbottu | mutantturkey: Well, Bugs are treated differently |
mutantturkey | D: |
mutantturkey | http://bugs.trinitydesktop.org/ |

mutantturkey | oh sorry |
affect | http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=ALL |

mutantturkey | It looks like tim hasn't forwarded it |
mutantturkey | yes :) |
mutantturkey | thats the old trinity domain :p |

tbottu | Bug 137 maj, P3, ---, kb9vqf, RESO FIXED, KDesktop crashes on load |
affect | looks like it's the one |
mutantturkey | yep |
mutantturkey | affect: that looks a bit old, do you suppose the problem is different? |
*Space_Man has joined #trinity-desktop | |
affect | duno, I'm not really keen on linux hacking |
affect | more like a php coder |
mutantturkey | I'm not so keen on php myself :p |
mutantturkey | well here is what i say, report a new bug and attach the backtrace. |
mutantturkey | we definitely know about the problem but reporting it will make sure it gets fixed up in the next few bug squash days probably |
affect | oh I will |
mutantturkey | okay great! :) |
mutantturkey | thanks. |
mutantturkey | samelian: how do we go about applying patches to souce with cmake? |
mutantturkey | or should we just apply them and upload the revised source code. there are a few diffs in kolourpaint |
samelian | mutantturkey: not sure |
samelian | ask Tim |
mutantturkey | i think if we apply them and upload the revised source code it would be easiest |
mutantturkey | OK. |
mutantturkey | kb9vqf: do we apply patches and upload the patched code, or just keep applying the patches? |
*John_Matrix has joined #trinity-desktop | |
mutantturkey | mornin' John_Matrix |
John_Matrix | another weird issue is that I sometimes get windows with no borders/titlebars so I can neither move nor resize them |
John_Matrix | x restart helps, tho |
mutantturkey | oh weird |
mutantturkey | well, report that also then |
mutantturkey | sorry i cannot be of more help |
affect | yeah I understand |
affect | but what bothers me the most is that I can't play stuff with amarok |
affect | and i'm not sure if it's on tde or arch side |
mutantturkey | arch? |
mutantturkey | :D :D :D :D :D :D |
affect | wat |
mutantturkey | archlinux, only the greatest distro evar |
affect | well I prefer gentoo but decided to give arch a try since it's kinda faster ofc |
affect | the thing is that gentoo still has real kde3 in one of it's overlays and arch only has tde |
mutantturkey | that is not true |
mutantturkey | arch has kdemod3 |
mutantturkey | well, wait nevermind, i guess kdemod3 is now trinity also :o |
affect | yeah |
mutantturkey | :| |
affect | and since I can't use that bloated kde4 crap and somehow gnome doesn't like me either I have to either fix tde here or stick with gentoo's kde3 |
affect | recent gui development tendencies suck anyway |
mutantturkey | I concur |
mutantturkey | I do fine xfce4.8 usable though, but not configurable like 3.5x |
affect | it's like they take all what's been evolving for 25 years and flush it down the toilet |
mutantturkey | pretty much |
affect | AND THEN they take a fucking diarrhea dump which is really smelly |
affect | varnish it |
affect | and here you go |
affect | new and shiny |
mutantturkey | yep. |
affect | and fucking unusable |
affect | assholes |
mutantturkey | yes. |
mutantturkey | we thoroughly agree with you in all aspects |
mutantturkey | hence the project! |
affect | yeah it's really nice |
affect | looks like you don't have many devs tho |
mutantturkey | well actually |
mutantturkey | we are getting mroe and more help |
mutantturkey | alot of people are stepping up with non programming stuff, mostly tim and samelian are our programmers. |
mutantturkey | but we undergoing a gigantic effort to replace autoconf with cmake which is holding us up. |
mutantturkey | Tim is also getting closer and closer to having it all ported to Qt4 |
affect | nice |
affect | too bad I was always too lazy for linux coding |
mutantturkey | yeah |
mutantturkey | D: I was always to lazy for C++ |
mutantturkey | I avoid OO programming at all costs. |
mutantturkey | straight C for me and nothing else |
affect | I like neither straight C nor OO |
affect | prefer mostly script langs |
mutantturkey | I don't do much with scripting, I don't really like the overhead |
affect | although I got kinda tired of coding lately. took a timeout, bought me a graphics tablet |
affect | too bad I don't have a talent to draw xD |
mutantturkey | :p |
mutantturkey | I am not good with any arts either. code is art enough for me. |
affect | I liked coding, but as soon as it became my job I started hating it |
affect | sigh |
mutantturkey | yes |
mutantturkey | my problem right now. |
mutantturkey | do i go to school for programming or not D: |
mutantturkey | but i just don't want to learn windows and i want to avoid the whole .net crap |
affect | yeah, fuck it |
mutantturkey | so now i need to find a different career path |
affect | well I got my computer science bachelors degree |
affect | but it was pretty much useless anyway |
mutantturkey | from where? |
affect | the university |
affect | ohh it was boring |
mutantturkey | D: |
affect | 80 year olds teaching pascal and borland c++ 3.1 |
affect | and crap like this |
mutantturkey | oh my god. |
mutantturkey | that is awful. |
affect | I learned most of programming myself anyway |
affect | university was just to get a degree |
mutantturkey | yeah, I already know C, fine with bash and all the, I can be an admin, do all the unix stuff you'll ever need. |
mutantturkey | its just for the degress |
mutantturkey | degree's |
affect | yeah |
affect | I'd rather do some programming courses/certifications instead |
mutantturkey | yes |
mutantturkey | I don't think they carry as much weight |
mutantturkey | and I don't really feel liek getting my linux admin certs |
mutantturkey | because I don't really want to be an admin |
mutantturkey | I just want to write linux code all days :o |
affect | yeah too bad you can't live on pure enthusiasm |
affect | money is still a dependency |
mutantturkey | that is true |

samelian | kb9vqf: I think i found the problem |
samelian | we should not set defaults for QT_INCLUDE_DIRS and QT_LIBRARY_DIRS |
samelian | these are detected based on QTDIR environment variable |
kb9vqf | including the qt3/qt4 suffix? |
samelian | I think |
kb9vqf | I don't want to maintain two different packaging trees for Qt3/Qt4 |
Tekk_ | samelian: will that fix work like right now? |
Tekk_ | not doing -DQT_INCLUDE_DIRS |
samelian | Tekk_: yes, hang on |
samelian | kb9vqf: qt4 uses QTDIR as well? |
kb9vqf | I don' tknow |
kb9vqf | most likely |
samelian | in any case, setting path to qt should be packager prerogative |
kb9vqf | I don't want to have to change the flags between the Qt3 and Qt4 versions |
kb9vqf | If I have to do that then I have to maintain two separate packaging trees |
samelian | automated guessing is evil :) |
BahoUtot | Can anyone help with a qt3 tqtinterface question ? |
samelian | kb9vqf: I will think how to handle this |
Tekk_ | BahoUtot: working on it :) |
kb9vqf | ok |
Tekk_ | samelian: what file should I be editing to get rid of those checks? |
samelian | no file, I will commit in svn in few seconds |
Tekk_ | alright |
Tekk_ | say when it's gone through :P |
BahoUtot | ok I haven't been able to build trinity, it says my Qt3 is not patched. I am looking to see if I have the right Qt3 one |
samelian | commited, wait few minutes until svn is synchronized |
Tekk_ | BahoUtot: we know |
Tekk_ | BahoUtot: did you manually build your qt3? |
Tekk_ | if not, it's not patched ;P |
Tekk_ | well, build it yourself and apply the patch |
BahoUtot | Ok I just thought I farted something uo and I was not current |
Tekk_ | you aren't current, technically |
BahoUtot | Where is the patch? |
Tekk_ | http://www.trinitydesktop.org/wiki/bin/view/Developers/TQtForQt3 |
BahoUtot | Thanks I'll have a go at it |
Tekk_ | BahoUtot: put it in the same directory your trinity folder is in |
Tekk_ | then apply with patch -Np0 -i qt3_3.3.8c.diff |
BahoUtot | Ok I just d/l'd it.. I had a qt3_3.3.8c.diff patch already maybe not the right one. |
Tekk_ | BahoUtot: ah |
Tekk_ | no, you have the right one |
Tekk_ | you need an svn update, the files were messed up |
Tekk_ | we're waiting for it to be all ready right now, actually |
BahoUtot | I do an svn update then try to build trinity (daily) |
Tekk_ | BahoUtot: yeah, the problem being that it was just fixed |
Tekk_ | literally JUST fixed |
BahoUtot | OK I think I understand |
BahoUtot | I justed diffed the two patches I have and they are didfferent so I'll try the one I just d/l'd |
Tekk_ | update went through |
Tekk_ | samelian: still no |
Tekk_ | I guess I'll manually edit and see if I can gut out that test |
samelian | Tekk_: same error? |
Tekk_ | samelian: yeah |
samelian | show me CMakeError.log |
Tekk_ | samelian: cmake files are ugly O.o |
samelian | hehe |
samelian | are pretty nice and poweful, actually |
Tekk_ | http://dpaste.com/525356/ |
Tekk_ | bleh, my name slipped in...whatever, you all get it when I connect anyway :P |
samelian | Tekk_: seems that you still using old cmake files |
Tekk_ | samelian: O.o |
Tekk_ | oh |
samelian | update your svn tree again |
Tekk_ | probably have a cache somewhere |
Tekk_ | or maybe that |
Tekk_ | samelian: nope, still |
Tekk_ | obvious time |
Tekk_ | cmake . -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/trinity -DCMAKE_VERBOSE_MAKEFILE=ON -DWITH_QT3=ON -DQTDIR=/opt/qt -DBUILD_ALL=on |
Tekk_ | is that a good cmake line? |
Tekk_ | or do I need to do the include dir stuff? |
samelian | show me FindQt.cmake |
samelian | your line it's ok |
Tekk_ | http://dpaste.com/525357/ |
Tekk_ | pull didn't help :P |
samelian | seems fine as well |
samelian | what you try to compile? |
Tekk_ | kdelibs |
Tekk_ | I'll try rming that dir and pulling again |
samelian | don't forget to remove all files in build tree |
Tekk_ | wait |
Tekk_ | crap |
Tekk_ | I need to build tqt first |
samelian | ofc |
Tekk_ | totally forgot |
Tekk_ | sorry |
Tekk_ | and now I'm getting that it's not patched still :P |
samelian | the build tree was empty? |
Tekk_ | samelian: hmm? |
samelian | you using out-of-source, right? |
Tekk_ | no, building the dirs |
samelian | use out-of-source, is strongly recommended |
Tekk_ | same with out of source |
samelian | how you tried? |
Tekk_ | samelian: cd ../ mkdir tqt-build cd tqt-build then the cmake line |
Tekk_ | is that about right? |
samelian | cmake /path/to/source, right? |
Tekk_ | yeah |
samelian | good |
samelian | show me FindQt.cmake |
samelian | which is located in tqt/cmake/modules |
Tekk_ | yep |
Tekk_ | http://dpaste.com/525363/ |
samelian | hmm, seems fine |
Tekk_ | does the cmake work on your machine? |
samelian | of course |
samelian | show me CMakeError.log again |
Tekk_ | http://dpaste.com/525365/ |
samelian | weird, you cmake still using /usr/include/qt3 as include dir |
Tekk_ | really? O.o |
samelian | yep |
Tekk_ | hmm |
samelian | give me an archive of your tqt source tree |
samelian | i want to inspect it |
Tekk_ | tarring |
Tekk_ | you know a host that I can use that won't take forever? |
samelian | hmm, i don't know |
Tekk_ | samelian: have git installed? |
samelian | ye |
samelian | yes |
Tekk_ | cool |
Tekk_ | I'll throw it up on my gitorious |
Tekk_ | or I would if gitorious was letting me create projects |
samelian | hehe |
Tekk_ | samelian: actually, I think I'll start anew with tqt |
Tekk_ | make sure nothing can possibly be wrong |
Tekk_ | okay, so there was something weird going on in there |

MutantTurkey | samelian: hey I have a complex command i need to issue with add_custom command. |
MutantTurkey | it is 3 lines of some sed work, etc. I can't seem to get it right. |
samelian | MutantTurkey: show me |
MutantTurkey | Ok in a minute |
MutantTurkey | here is the cmake lists, i don't think i am doing it right:http:/ix.io/1zL |
MutantTurkey | http://ix.io/1zL |
samelian | MutantTurkey: load file into a variable |
samelian | then you can use string( REGEX MATCHALL |
MutantTurkey | hmmm? |
samelian | file( READ ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/COPYING _copying ) |
MutantTurkey | why would we do that? |
MutantTurkey | i need to do stuff with sed |
samelian | you do not need sed at all |
MutantTurkey | what do you mean? ofc i do |
samelian | cmake have builtin replace functions |
MutantTurkey | to load that into a variable? |
samelian | load and process the content |
MutantTurkey | like into a C++ variable? |
samelian | yes |
MutantTurkey | so file( READ ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/COPYING kpLicenseText ) ? |
samelian | sort of |
samelian | http://www.cmake.org/cmake/help/cmake-2-8-docs.html#command:string |
samelian | I think first sed command can be replaced with this; |
samelian | string( REGEX REPLACE "\"" "\\\"" kpLicenseText "${kpLicenseText}" ) |
MutantTurkey | do i need it then? |
samelian | sure, this command replace " with "\ |
MutantTurkey | oj ok |
samelian | actually, with \" |
MutantTurkey | no go |
MutantTurkey | string sub-command REGEX, mode REPLACE: Unknown escape "\"" in replace-expression. |
samelian | i think should be "\\\\"" |
samelian | or actually "\\\\\"" :) |
MutantTurkey | :p |
samelian | MutantTurkey: you can use this for start: http://www.cmake.org/pipermail/cmake/2009-March/027833.html |
MutantTurkey | would you like to add that macro? |
MutantTurkey | samelian: hmmm, now this does not seem to make any more sense than sed |
samelian | hehe |
samelian | ok, forget it for the moment |
MutantTurkey | haha ok :p |
samelian | I will try to make a macro for this kind of tasks, tomorrow |
MutantTurkey | now i am back to being stuck D: |
MutantTurkey | ok thank you. |
MutantTurkey | I will just wait :p I only have a few more things to do in kdegraphics so I really am just waiting on that i think |
MutantTurkey | I have been so busy for these few weeks i have had almost no time |
samelian | what you want to port, after kdegraphics are finished? |
samelian | I think kdegames should be easy enough |
Tekk_ | samelian: you have some time? |
Tekk_ | kdelibs is failing to build |
MutantTurkey | samelian: good idea |
samelian | Tekk_: I just tested, compiling on my machine |
MutantTurkey | something that nobody cares about :) |
MutantTurkey | so i can take my time |
samelian | sure :) |
Tekk_ | samelian: and it works? O.o |
samelian | ofc |
samelian | show me your output |
samelian | to check where fail |
Tekk_ | I'd guess something's wrong with the listed build order then |
Tekk_ | sec |
Tekk_ | rebuilding, it was something about a missing include file |
samelian | i see |
samelian | source tree is clean? |
Tekk_ | mhm |
Tekk_ | oh wait |
Tekk_ | I tried building in the tree before |
samelian | aha |
samelian | maybe is polluted with some generated files |
Tekk_ | I'll try that :D |
Tekk_ | yeah |
MutantTurkey | Tekk_: yes, that could be a problem ;) |
samelian | I should forbid in-source building at all |
Tekk_ | yeah |
samelian | too many problems with in-source |
MutantTurkey | samelian: agreed. |
Tekk_ | samelian: moc: kshortcutdialog_simple.h: No such file |
Tekk_ | clean source tree, built arts and tqt |
Tekk_ | in kdelibs ;P |
samelian | Tekk_: i need entire output |
Tekk_ | samelian: http://pastebin.com/283Ewa7x |
Tekk_ | error.log |
samelian | errors are ok |
Tekk_ | hmmmm |
samelian | i need output of build |
Tekk_ | oh |
samelian | at least, relevant lines |
Tekk_ | http://pastebin.com/cpuu5z1J |
samelian | Tekk_: actually the error is this :) |
samelian | opt/qt/bin/uic: error while loading shared libraries: libqt-mt.so.3 |
Tekk_ | ah |
samelian | LD_LIBRARY_PATH are correctly set to qt3 lib dir? |
Tekk_ | hold on, lemme check |
Tekk_ | there we go |
Tekk_ | I had trinity but not qt |
samelian | so, from now out-of-source building are mandatory |
MutantTurkey | samelian: what sections are not yet ported to cmake? |
samelian | hehe, a lot |
samelian | kdenetwork is partial |
samelian | kdevelop almost done |
samelian | kwebdev, partial |
samelian | kdeutils, partial |
samelian | and the rest, not touched yet |
MutantTurkey | ok |
Mias | cewl, it w0rx |
MutantTurkey | yai tatz s0 h4x0rs! |
Mias | after solving http://pastebin.com/2hhkqfr1 |
Mias | MutantTurkey: h4rr |
Mias | but compiz --replace wont work |
MutantTurkey | :[ |
Tekk_ | samelian: weird, kdebase isn't working. |
Tekk_ | the makefile doesn't seem to do...anything |
Tekk_ | I'll try repulling |
MutantTurkey | Tekk_: what happens? |
MutantTurkey | you need to remove in the source: CMakeCache.txt and CMakeFiles/ before you build out of source |
MutantTurkey | yeah? |
MutantTurkey | because it will just build in source if it see that. |
MutantTurkey | (may not be that problem, but that has happened to me so maybe it is for you also) |
Mias | oops my fault its already running ;) |
Tekk_ | hmm, okay |
MutantTurkey | Tekk_: if there are leftover CMake files in source, then you try to build out of source it might not work |
MutantTurkey | so if you remove those two you should be good |
MutantTurkey | if that is the problme |
Tekk_ | I wish svn cleanup would actually tell me that it's working instead of just sitting there :/ |
MutantTurkey | i know nothing of svn unfortunately D: |
MutantTurkey | while in theory I enjoy versioning systems, they all just are a pain in my ass. |
Tekk_ | git's nice |
MutantTurkey | I use git for a few hobby projects |
MutantTurkey | github to host |
Tekk_ | MutantTurkey: nope, no waste files |
Tekk_ | http://dpaste.com/525421/ cmake, aaaand http://dpaste.com/525422/ make |
MutantTurkey | Tekk_: there is no CMakeCache.txt in your area? |
Tekk_ | nope |
MutantTurkey | and do make VERBOSE=1 |
MutantTurkey | as well as show me your cmake command |
Tekk_ | cmake /home/danny/programming/trinity/kdebase/ -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/trinity -DCMAKE_VERBOSE_MAKEFILE=ON |
Tekk_ | http://dpaste.com/525423/ |
MutantTurkey | dude |
MutantTurkey | you need to do CMAKE DBUILD_ALL=ON |
Tekk_ | ? |
Tekk_ | agh |
MutantTurkey | :) |
Tekk_ | now it's saying it can't find tqt-dbus :/ |
MutantTurkey | do you have it installed? |
Tekk_ | MutantTurkey: I installed tqt |
Tekk_ | and arts |
MutantTurkey | Tekk_: D: are your paths right? |
Tekk_ | should be..... |
MutantTurkey | (sorry again samelian is the real expert, i am just a lowly apprentice) |
Tekk_ | agh |
Tekk_ | fsckin terminals missing losing my exports |
MutantTurkey | ah |
MutantTurkey | thats it |
MutantTurkey | what terminal you use? |
Tekk_ | oh nope |
Tekk_ | that's not it |
Tekk_ | it doesn't seem to be in /opt/trinity/bin O.o |
Tekk_ | and guake, but sometimes svn gets stuck and I need to close it |
Tekk_ | sec |
MutantTurkey | what distro is this? |
Tekk_ | MutantTurkey: arch |
Tekk_ | I'm rebuilding tqt just to make sure |
MutantTurkey | :) |
Tekk_ | MutantTurkey: so yeah, no worries about out of date stuff ;P |
MutantTurkey | arch is the bestsies |
MutantTurkey | you using davids repos at all? |
BahoUtot | MutantTurkey: Davids qt3 is borked |
Tekk_ | nope |
MutantTurkey | BahoUtot: oh hey there. didn't see you. |
Tekk_ | MutantTurkey: hmm? |
Tekk_ | oh, the kdemod3 crap? |
Tekk_ | no |
BahoUtot | Yes just came back |
MutantTurkey | BahoUtot: I didn't know |
MutantTurkey | Tekk_: Baho is one of our Arch maintainers |
Tekk_ | ah, nice |
BahoUtot | His qt3 patch is broken that's what gave me much grief in building tqtinterface |
MutantTurkey | Tekk_: It is BahoUtot, David Rankin and I who are on the arch "team" |
Tekk_ | ah |
Tekk_ | so you have an actual trinity repo? |
MutantTurkey | yes. |
Tekk_ | as in not kdemod3? |
MutantTurkey | https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Trinity |
MutantTurkey | kdemod is providing our stable |
MutantTurkey | and kaitocracy is hosting us for all svn builds |
MutantTurkey | Tekk_: read the arch wiki page, there is a lot of crap on there but it is useful (mostly :p) |
BahoUtot | MutantTurkey: My PKGBUILDS are in http://www.3111skyline.com/dl/dt/trinity/arch/dev/baho/ |
BahoUtot | If you want to have a look |
MutantTurkey | BahoUtot: did you see that we are using svn.trinitydesktop now? |
BahoUtot | Yes I a, using svn currently |
MutantTurkey | BahoUtot: also, you should apply all the arch patches for qt3 |
MutantTurkey | you know? |
Tekk_ | what sort of plans are there for konqueror? |
Tekk_ | or do you need someone to, you know, make a proper browser? |
MutantTurkey | Tekk_: we are going to use webkit |
MutantTurkey | when we get to qt4 |
Tekk_ | MutantTurkey: for konqueror? |
MutantTurkey | Tekk_: yes |
Tekk_ | uhhh |
MutantTurkey | BahoUtot: nvm, that is good |
MutantTurkey | Tekk_: i think so at least. I'd have to ask him |
Tekk_ | MutantTurkey: actually one of the konqueror devs had a blog post about that |
MutantTurkey | Tekk_: really? |
Tekk_ | he pointed out that konqueror is so horribly tied to khtml that you could never get it moved to webkit |
Tekk_ | your best bet would be arora, or a fresh browser |
MutantTurkey | well D: that is that they said about other stuff. |
Tekk_ | which would be fun |
MutantTurkey | they said we could never get to Qt4 and we already are there almost |
MutantTurkey | they said that we would die off and 3.5 was dead... so they were very wrong |
BahoUtot | Utot3111 |
Tekk_ | MutantTurkey: eh, I just don't tink it'd be worth it you know? |
BahoUtot | Oops |
MutantTurkey | Tekk_: I would making a new web browser. I have written a few already |
Tekk_ | MutantTurkey: same |
Tekk_ | well, one |
Tekk_ | pygtkmozembed :D |
MutantTurkey | BahoUtot: cage your password right now, since we all just saw it |
MutantTurkey | Tekk_: oh, mine is in C :) |
Tekk_ | nice |
MutantTurkey | http://github.com/mutantturkey/sb/ |
MutantTurkey | its like surf but tabbed pretty muchj |
Tekk_ | oh sweet |
BahoUtot | Whay passwd? |
MutantTurkey | BahoUtot: what was the Utot3111? |
Tekk_ | BahoUtot: 21:44 < BahoUtot> Utot3111 |
MutantTurkey | Tekk_: it has broke with the latest webkit i think, not sure, how it handles new tabs is weird now |
Tekk_ | MutantTurkey: I'd like to help you out with that, but what to write it in... |
BahoUtot | That was an OPPS |
MutantTurkey | but it also has history and stuff |
MutantTurkey | Tekk_: C++ D: |
MutantTurkey | I hate that. |
Tekk_ | MutantTurkey: I wouldn't go with that :/ |
Tekk_ | MutantTurkey: it's too inefficent, your bottleneck with browsers is latency |
MutantTurkey | Tekk_: we would have to, since we'd be using TQt interface and stuff. |
Tekk_ | you know, the network |
Tekk_ | MutantTurkey: but you have the kdebindigs |
MutantTurkey | Tekk_: I am all for using C but whatever. |
Tekk_ | MutantTurkey: yeah, I'd prefer C |
MutantTurkey | definitely |
BahoUtot | Anyway my password is password ;) |
MutantTurkey | BahoUtot: mine is morrison xD |
Tekk_ | it'd be a cool idea |
Tekk_ | to have your password 'password' |
Tekk_ | just an md5 hash of it :D |
MutantTurkey | Tekk_: haha |
Tekk_ | MutantTurkey: I guess we can probably start on it at some point |
Tekk_ | you have a gitorious account? |
MutantTurkey | github baby |
Tekk_ | grrr >> |
Tekk_ | ;P |
MutantTurkey | >.> |
MutantTurkey | ._______. |
MutantTurkey | you're one of those peopel. |
Tekk_ | it's........staaaaaring |
MutantTurkey | :p |
Tekk_ | MutantTurkey: what people? |
BahoUtot | md5sum of password is 286755fad04869ca523320acce0dc6a4 |
MutantTurkey | Tekk_: it was a joke, those gitorious people |
Tekk_ | ah |
Tekk_ | BahoUtot: thanks |
MutantTurkey | BahoUtot: to long to remember for me |
MutantTurkey | Tekk_: anyway, yeah I don't know what tim is planning tbh we talked about it a bit. |
Tekk_ | mhm |
BahoUtot | use $(md5sum < password) to login then |
Tekk_ | I can probably try throwing together a prototype |
Tekk_ | if I, you know, pick up C++ and tqt :P |
Tekk_ | and webkit |
MutantTurkey | Tekk_: I am quite the minimalist, so i am not good at interface design |
MutantTurkey | the way i have there is nothing |
Tekk_ | MutantTurkey: yeah, we should change that |
Tekk_ | so it'll blend in with it |
Tekk_ | MutantTurkey: so, another dwm fan? |
MutantTurkey | Tekk_: scrotwm |
Tekk_ | ah |
MutantTurkey | it is like dwm on roids |
Tekk_ | mhm |
Tekk_ | maybe I should look at awesome |
MutantTurkey | Tekk_: http://imagebin.org/144776 |
Tekk_ | eh, I'll stay in xfce till I have trinity |
MutantTurkey | that is my browser ( on xfce) |
MutantTurkey | i love 4.8 i won't lie |
Tekk_ | ah, sweet |
BahoUtot | Later dudes |
MutantTurkey | BahoUtot: see you later man |
Tekk_ | MutantTurkey: lemme grab mine |
Tekk_ | heh |
MutantTurkey | Tekk_: ok! :p |
MutantTurkey | gah where is samelian when i need him D: |
Tekk_ | gone D= |
Tekk_ | O.o |
MutantTurkey | i know |
MutantTurkey | freaking no idea how to work autoconf |
Tekk_ | ah! |
MutantTurkey | lol it is hopeless |
Tekk_ | MutantTurkey: had to track down all the python2 stuff :P |
Tekk_ | and mozembed |
MutantTurkey | I will be honest those are two things i hate. |
MutantTurkey | python and mozilla |
MutantTurkey | :p |
Tekk_ | I forgot that this was broken when I left it |
Tekk_ | MutantTurkey: I like mozilla |
Tekk_ | and I hate python |
Tekk_ | but there was no rubymozembed ;P |
MutantTurkey | mozilla i always think of as bloated |
MutantTurkey | I just don't like the memory overhead of python or ruby, and the poorer performance |
MutantTurkey | especially since C is my favorite :) |
Tekk_ | maybe I can checkout an old version.. |
MutantTurkey | :p |
MutantTurkey | of what? |
Tekk_ | of my browser |
MutantTurkey | oh |
Tekk_ | O.o |
MutantTurkey | kpdf is getting quite annoying ._. |
Tekk_ | no, it's sedfaulting anyway |
MutantTurkey | lo |
Tekk_ | weird |
MutantTurkey | lol' |
Tekk_ | anyway, it was a browser |
MutantTurkey | in the past |
Tekk_ | exactly :D |
MutantTurkey | half my projects don't build anymore |
MutantTurkey | they are all half assed |
Tekk_ | yep |
MutantTurkey | thats now i like them |
MutantTurkey | half ass means half the amount of crap. |
Tekk_ | but it also means nasty hacks :P |
MutantTurkey | that only work on my system xD |
MutantTurkey | i love when people comment on my stuff in the AUR like "oh it doesn't build". yeah smd you can fix it if you want. |
Tekk_ | mhm |
MutantTurkey | bed time soon. |
MutantTurkey | DAMNIT. |
Mias | E: Paket kwin-style-serenity(-kde3) konnte nicht gefunden werden |
MutantTurkey | i just rm -Rf'd my whole kpdf tree D: |
kb9vqf | Mias: That package is probably not in the Trinity archives |
kb9vqf | File a bug report at http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net |
Tekk_ | MutantTurkey: still nothing on dbus-tqt |
Mias | kb9vqf: can i use the old kde3 one? |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: hey me and Tekk_ were talking about Qt4 and webkit, what is the plan for conqueror |
MutantTurkey | Tekk_: yeah, i just lost my whole nights work. |
kb9vqf | Mias: It may or may not work |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Replacing KHTML's innards with WebKit |
Mias | kb9vqf: what about kttsmgr? |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: ok thought so |
Tekk_ | MutantTurkey: O.o ouch |
kb9vqf | kttsmgr has a Trinity version |
Mias | how called? |
kb9vqf | or should |
kb9vqf | hang on |
Mias | looks as blind asx the kde4 one here, what comes up |
Mias | -x |
kb9vqf | Mias: File that as a bug report as well |
kb9vqf | there is no Trinity version packaged |
kb9vqf | It will build from source under Trinity with no problems |
kb9vqf | but you probably want the binary packages ;-) |
Mias | ah hmm |
Tekk_ | anyone have an actual built tree? |
Tekk_ | I need them to check what builds dbus-tqt |
MutantTurkey | Tekk_: did you try looking at davids pkgbuilds? |
MutantTurkey | see what flags he used |
MutantTurkey | to hack it together |
Tekk_ | ah, no, didn't occur to me |
MutantTurkey | :) try thato ut |
MutantTurkey | http://svn.trinitydesktop.org/websvn/filedetails.php?repname=Trinity+Packaging&path=%2Farch%2Fmaster%2Ftrinity-dbus-1-qt3%2FPKGBUILD |
MutantTurkey | oh hmm, that is using autoconf i think |
MutantTurkey | no idea what he did then |
MutantTurkey | Tekk_: If no resolve if found, ask David on the mailing list ok? |
Tekk_ | okay |
MutantTurkey | i am going to sleep. i give up on kpdf |
Tekk_ | night |
Tekk_ | ah, so it seems to be a dependency that's actually not in trinity >> |
Mias | gn8 |
Mias | what does plymouthd? |
Tekk_ | Mias: plymouth is a boot splash |
Mias | lol + consuming 2%cpu all time?? |
*Tekk_ shrugs | |
Tekk_ | it cures cancer :D |
Mias | this is not funny. |
Tekk_ | Mias: well using your cpu time to cure cancer isn't out of the question |
Tekk_ | that's all I can think of it possibly doing |
Mias | trolling is lame + obsolete |
Tekk_ | Mias: that's not trolling, that's wishful thinkig |
Tekk_ | Mias: if all software was actually efficent and the rest was donated to say, cancer research, we'd have a cure within a month from MS office alone |

edakiri | running kdevelop-trinity for the first time. It wants to be told directory containing tqt.h . Searching all Debian unstable packages, I find no tqt.h . Where is it? |
aalecs | edakiri: you're compiling by hand ? |
edakiri | i'm not compiling kdevelop myself, if that is what you ask, aalecs |
aalecs | i don't know why it would ask you for a header file |
edakiri | perhaps because of the project file I opened, aalecs? |
aalecs | edakiri: I think is wierd, why would he ask for tqt.h. is it referenced in your project ? |
edakiri | searching the project, it seems not to be referenced. There is no text reference. |
edakiri | starting, also without a project file, has the same behaviour |
aalecs | wierd |
aalecs | i don't use kdevelop at all, so i don't know what to say |

MutantTurkey | samelian: having some troubles with kpdf still D: |
MutantTurkey | samelian: It looks for a conf/settings.h (which doesn't exist) the only think in the conf/Makefile.am about it is this line, preferencesdialog.lo: settings.h |
MutantTurkey | is it generating the settings.h from preferencesdialog.lo and how do i do that with cmake? |
samelian | "preferencesdialog.lo: settings.h" meaning that preferencesdialog.lo needs settings.h |
MutantTurkey | oh |
MutantTurkey | well settings.h doesn't appear? |
samelian | I think settings.h are generating somewhere else |
samelian | show me makefile.am |
MutantTurkey | which one? there are many |
samelian | the one with problem |
MutantTurkey | the one with the problem? no. there is a file that is attempting to include /conf/settings.h and it just doesn't exists |
MutantTurkey | there is a settings.kcfgc |
samelian | in this case, settings.h is generated automatically from settings.kcfgc |
MutantTurkey | ok. well so should i include conf/settings.kcfgc and cmake will generate it? |
samelian | is not included already? |
samelian | show me Makefile.am |
MutantTurkey | it is not included in the makefile.am afaik |
samelian | kb9vqf: are you really sure that QT_INCLUDE_DIRS should be defaulted to a hardwired value? |
samelian | I bet that every distribution have its own way to install qt |
MutantTurkey | samelian: honestly the whole kpdf tree is a shitwreck. |
MutantTurkey | shipwreck' |
MutantTurkey | whoops :p |
samelian | hehe |
MutantTurkey | the xpdf doesn't even build. |
samelian | should pe ported to poppler |
MutantTurkey | I think it would be smarter to drop it |
MutantTurkey | yes and go to poppler |
MutantTurkey | writing an application is probably pretty simple with poppler, I have looked at the gtk port it is fairly simple. |
samelian | ofc |
samelian | poppler have support for gtk and qt |
MutantTurkey | exactly |
MutantTurkey | and qt3 still. |
MutantTurkey | so I think we should just not bother with it |
MutantTurkey | because it is such a dirtball piece of crap. |
samelian | ok, skip it |
MutantTurkey | ok |
samelian | will check later what to do with it |
MutantTurkey | good :) |
MutantTurkey | that leaves kolourpaint i think |
*field_it has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | samelian: I only did that for autodetect |
kb9vqf | We can change it in the future, but for now I need it in order to build Qt3/Qt4 simultaneously |
samelian | kb9vqf: aha, i see |
kb9vqf | as I absolutely refuse to maintian two separate packaging trees :) |
samelian | ofc :) |
kb9vqf | samelian: In the future I could see us setting -DAUTODETECT="debian" |
kb9vqf | or -DAUTODETECT_QT="redhat" |
samelian | i'm not sure that is good ideea to do this |
samelian | we cannot predict which distro will appear in the future |
kb9vqf | right |
kb9vqf | but autodection can be turned off |
kb9vqf | -DAUTODETECT_QT="OFF" |
kb9vqf | that is actually the default right now |
samelian | also, we cannot really check the detection for all distros, because i'm gentoo user, you're debian/ubuntu user |
kb9vqf | think of it this way: if we hard code all the Qt paths then each packager (me) has to change them for all the 100+ trinity packages :-P |
kb9vqf | it gets messy fast |
kb9vqf | the old Automake tools searched a standard set of Qt directories |
kb9vqf | it made packaging a LOT easier |
samelian | i know, it was pretty bad ideea, in my opinion |
kb9vqf | not from my perspective :) |
samelian | bacause you using a mainstream distro |
kb9vqf | yes, probably |
kb9vqf | but remember it can always be shut off |
samelian | ok |
kb9vqf | I don't mind dealing with the autodetection code myself |
kb9vqf | if you don't want to do it |
samelian | my ideea is to not glue trinity with any kind of distro, should be neutral |
kb9vqf | right |
kb9vqf | so it really becomes a standard set of Qt directories |
kb9vqf | in fact we could probably use the locate command to find the Qt include directory ;-) |
samelian | hehe |
samelian | some distros have no locate command |
samelian | at least, not by default |
samelian | like gentoo, for example |
kb9vqf | well, my thought on the matter is if autodetect is manually enabled by a packager, then he or she has to make sure that the dependencies are met |
kb9vqf | otherwise said packager gets to specify all the Qt directories manually |
samelian | so far, QTDIR seems reliable enough |
samelian | ok, will think about these later |
kb9vqf | sure |
samelian | now, about kdevelop and its csv support |
samelian | as I see, cvs support was dropped in autotools too |
samelian | there is no cvsclient directory under kdevelop/vcs, at least no more |
samelian | we have only cvsservice, which is something related with cervisia, and I have no ideea what is cvsservice |
kb9vqf | if it is not in Autotools then don't bother working on it |
samelian | i will check what is cvsservice |
samelian | and how to build it |
kb9vqf | ok |
MutantTurkey | samelian: yeah the only thing i have left is what we talked over yesterday, the macro for generating variables from those headers |
samelian | aha |
MutantTurkey | yeah :| |
samelian | i has no time to make a macro for this, skip it for the moment |
MutantTurkey | then i am all done. |
MutantTurkey | I just need to check over formatting and such now |
samelian | kb9vqf: QT should be detected only in tqt, then incdir and libdir for qt3 should be propagated to rest of packages |
samelian | MutantTurkey: ok, be very careful |
kb9vqf | samelian: I have no idea how to do that :) |
kb9vqf | My CMake knowledge is very limited right now |
*kb9vqf is learning, but slowly | |
MutantTurkey | samelian: yes. i am doing all of that :p |
samelian | i will try to implement this idea |
samelian | MutantTurkey: and please don't use "/" terminator for directories :) |
samelian | because they are already directories |
samelian | the path will be /my/ugly/path//to/something |
samelian | kb9vqf: i see that in tqt.h is hardwired "#define USE_QT3" |
samelian | it is intentional or a mistake? |
kb9vqf | samelian: For some reason CMake was not replacing USE_QTX with USE_QT3 |
kb9vqf | so I hardwired it |
kb9vqf | that version of TQt will never work with Qt4 anyway |
samelian | actually you don't need it |
samelian | cmake add -DUSE_QT3 in command line |
samelian | like for -include tqt.h |
kb9vqf | samelian: it is failing in the DBUS configure check |
kb9vqf | USE_QT3 is not being passed there |
samelian | then DBUS should be fixed |
kb9vqf | yes |
samelian | or rename tqt.h to tqt.h.cmake |
kb9vqf | but I did not know how to do that :( |
samelian | and put @QTVER@ in it |
samelian | if you have problems with cmake, just ask :) |
samelian | don't waste your time |
kb9vqf | it was late....you were not on IRC... :) |
kb9vqf | feel free to fix it |
samelian | ok, dbus-tqt is in svn? |
kb9vqf | Yes |
samelian | ok, I will check it now |
kb9vqf | thanks |
MutantTurkey | samelian: i am fixing thouse all now :p |
MutantTurkey | I stopped doing it a long time ago, just have to fix old ones |
samelian | kb9vqf: dbus-tqt is not under dependecies? |
samelian | i won't update all svn tree |
kb9vqf | samelian: It is in my SVN tree |
samelian | ah |
samelian | put it in main svn tree |
kb9vqf | hang on |
kb9vqf | samelian: Committed |
samelian | ok |
samelian | kb9vqf: seems ok to me |
samelian | -DUSE_QT3 argument is passed to compiler |
samelian | or the problem is at configure stage? |
MutantTurkey | samelian: did a first run though and fixed alot of formatting stuff. |
MutantTurkey | i'll look again tomorrow, to often you won't see the obvious stuff :p |
samelian | hehe |
MutantTurkey | I need to do this: fix the djvu plugin for one thing, kolourpaint, and kpdf(?) |
samelian | ok, try to done formatiing |
samelian | then throw me the cmake files |
samelian | and you and me will try to fix the rest of problems |
MutantTurkey | ok |
MutantTurkey | well the djvu i think I can fix first |
kb9vqf | samelian: The problem is during configure |
kb9vqf | the little program that is run to detect dbus-tqt |
kb9vqf | in kdebase/ConfigureCMake.txt or similar |
samelian | ok, I will rewrite cmake for tqt from scratch |
samelian | i was very unexperienced when a was made it |
*Baho has joined #trinity-desktop | |
samelian | kb9vqf: seems that reverse DNS problem appears again |
samelian | Received: from vali.starlink.edu (unknown [74.84.118.180]) |
kb9vqf | samelian: my ISP is having massive problems today |
kb9vqf | I'm lucky I'm even online :-P |
kb9vqf | Given how much I pay them per month I am quite upset |
samelian | hehe |
samelian | kb9vqf: where is located qt4 on ubuntu/debian? |
samelian | I mean, incdir, libdir, bindir |
kb9vqf | samelian: Look at my Qt4 default directories in FindQt.cmake :) |
samelian | aha |
samelian | MutantTurkey: the question about qt4 is valid for arch as well |
samelian | kb9vqf: what you think about this setup? |
samelian | http://paste.lug.ro/131060 |
samelian | I think it cover by default your needs |
kb9vqf | samelian: It's close, but I would rather it autodetect qt3/qt4 if possible, based on which version of TQt is installed |
kb9vqf | building qt3 TDE against qt4 TQt and vice versa won't work |
samelian | this will be propagated by default to next packages |
samelian | based on infomations provided by tqt |
samelian | qt will be detected only by tqt |
kb9vqf | I don't like this part |
kb9vqf | # |
kb9vqf | if( NOT DEFINED QT_VERSION ) |
kb9vqf | # |
kb9vqf | tde_message_fatal( "You must select a Qt version, like this:\n \n cmake -DQT_VERSION=3 [arguments...]" ) |
kb9vqf | # |
kb9vqf | endif( ) |
kb9vqf | oh wait, this is only for TQt |
samelian | you propose something else? |
kb9vqf | so arts, kdelibs, etc will not use this? |
samelian | nope |
kb9vqf | nope as in they will not use this or nope as in I am wrong |
kb9vqf | ? |
samelian | will not use |
samelian | arts will not care about qt detection |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | in that case it is perfect :) |
kb9vqf | I was mistaken in my original thinkin |
samelian | good |
kb9vqf | *thinking |
kb9vqf | it's been a long week |
samelian | hehe |
samelian | if you have suggestions for error messages, tell me |
kb9vqf | not really |
*kb9vqf would just like it to work :) | |
samelian | hehe, ok |
samelian | now I have much more experience |
kb9vqf | yes |
kb9vqf | you are our official CMake expert |
samelian | hehe, sure |
*Baho has joined #trinity-desktop | |
samelian | kb9vqf: for qt4 we should use uic3, right? |
kb9vqf | samelian: uic-tqt |
kb9vqf | you should take a look at the TQt for Qt4 TP2 package |
samelian | hmm, i can't try to find uic-tqt while I trying to build tqt |
kb9vqf | TQt for Qt4 provides it |
kb9vqf | TQt for Qt3 does not |
samelian | ofc, but uic-tqt using uic or uic3? |
kb9vqf | samelian: uic-tqt is a real binary |
kb9vqf | created when TQt builds |
kb9vqf | it does not call an "offical" Qt4 binary at all |
samelian | aha, so i need to detect uic only for qt3 version |
kb9vqf | yes |
samelian | ok |
kb9vqf | I absorbed all of the compat code into TQt |
samelian | i see |
kb9vqf | as I was worried Nokia may drop it at some point in the future |
samelian | yes, it's very possible |
kb9vqf | anyway, I almost have kdebase for Qt4 packages built |
kb9vqf | so as long as CMake doesn't break too badly soon I can start working on kdepim |
samelian | great |
samelian | I will commit new cmake for tqt when will be complete |
samelian | "moc are NOT found" is correct spelled? |
kb9vqf | "moc was not found" |
samelian | thx |
kb9vqf | np |
kb9vqf | technically it isn't spelling, it's grammar |
samelian | right |
kb9vqf | your spelling has been 100% correct :) |
samelian | :) |
samelian | "Seems that MOC_EXECUTABLE is not correctly set" it's correct? |
*Xu_R has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | "MOC_EXECUTABLE may not be set correctly" |
Baho | Anyone have time for a kdepim question? |
samelian | kb9vqf: you have a private svn for tqt? |
kb9vqf | samelian: For tqt for qt4 |
kb9vqf | well, sort of private |
kb9vqf | more like unadvertised |
samelian | i see |
kb9vqf | you want a private svn? |
kb9vqf | i can give you one? |
samelian | I have a preliminary cmake for tqt |
samelian | i won't commit it to main svn, yet |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | did you want a private copy of the tqtinterface? |
kb9vqf | for qt3 that is |
samelian | actually I want to dive what I made until now, for testings |
samelian | give* |
samelian | actually I will made a tar archive |
samelian | hang on |
samelian | kb9vqf: http://www.thel.ro/tqtinterface.tar.gz |
kb9vqf | ok, what do you want me to do with that? |
kb9vqf | just test Debian builds? |
samelian | check if everything are working as expected |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | not sure when I'll have a free time slot |
samelian | i mean, selecting qt version, building, setup qt parameters manually |
kb9vqf | it would probably be a good idea to involve several distributions in that process |
kb9vqf | i.e. several developers here |
kb9vqf | each can test it with his/her build methods |
samelian | sure, I testing it myself on gentoo |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: Any progress tracing the Konsole bug? |
samelian | ok, enough for today, time to sleep |
samelian | gn all |

MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: etherpad not working? |
*samelian has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Works here |
MutantTurkey | hmm yeah same thing now |
MutantTurkey | might have been on my end |
kb9vqf | samelian: Any progress on the kdepim compilation problem? |
kb9vqf | also it seems that tqt libraries may not be set correctly under Qt3 |
samelian | kb9vqf: I working on tqt |
kb9vqf | ok |
samelian | I will test it with kdelibs |
samelian | then I will commit it |
kb9vqf | sure |

Xu_R | hehe... didn't know that Trillian killed all my IRC connections until like 5 minute ago ._. |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: Any progress bisecting the Konsole bug? |
*kb9vqf also notes that's what you get for using Windows :-P | |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: lol |
Xu_R | and nope, I think I hit a dead end :( |
kb9vqf | really |
kb9vqf | odd |
kb9vqf | I know the bug is between 3.5.12 and HEAD |
Xu_R | none of your konsole edits suggest this bug occuring |
kb9vqf | right |
kb9vqf | a full bisect is needed |
Xu_R | so I'm suggesting it might be tqtinterface? |
*kb9vqf already looked through the logs and didn't see anything obvious | |
kb9vqf | tqtinterface won't do this |
kb9vqf | under Qt3 it's a very thin wrapper |
Xu_R | strange. |
kb9vqf | so I take it compiling the konsole 3.5.12 files with all other libraries at SVN HEAD did not fix the problem? |
Xu_R | nope.... I actually did that on my TDE test machine, and a VM - same bug still there |
kb9vqf | huh |
kb9vqf | can you try the 3.5.12 kdelibs and the SVN HEAD konsole? |
kb9vqf | s/konsole/kdebase+konsole/g |
Xu_R | ok, i'll try. |
kb9vqf | thx |
*TokRa has joined #trinity-desktop | |
*kb9vqf needs to know where the problem snuck in | |
Xu_R | yea, that's a nice thing to sneak in -__-" |
Xu_R | just wondering, would this happen to also occur with TQt4? |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: I have no idea |
kb9vqf | TQt4 is so unstable I can't even log in right now :-/ |
Xu_R | :( |
kb9vqf | that's to be expected though |
kb9vqf | I haven't been able to work on it for a whlie |
kb9vqf | *while |
Xu_R | lol hence unstable :P |
kb9vqf | it also does not help that my Qt4 dev machine is down |
Xu_R | :( |
kb9vqf | had to reallocate resources to support other work ;-) |
kb9vqf | Trinity is nice but it doesn't pay the bills..... |
Xu_R | true true |
TokRa | How many visitors per day are there on TDE web resources? If 1K or more, the good idea would be to place Google AdSence advertisement code on it. |
affect | no one clicks those anyway |
affect | and it makes the page look crappy |
affect | well, mostly |
TokRa | I disagree. i have a resource with about 2K visitors per day which results in 30-50 clicks bringing me 2-3 EUR every day |
TokRa | Another solution is enforcing donations. |
*field_it has joined #trinity-desktop | |
affect | well yeah it depends on type of the resource of course |
TokRa | Doesn't hurt to ask please-help-us-to-sustain-the-project |
TokRa | affect: katra zina meginats nav zaudets :) |
affect | tiesa kas tiesa |
samelian | kb9vqf: I commited new build system for tqt |
samelian | arts, kdelibs, and kdebase should be recompiled |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | let me fire those off |
kb9vqf | samelian: Any changed/new CMake flags? |
samelian | only on tqt |
samelian | you can use USE_QT3/USE_QT4 or QT_VERSION=3/4 |
kb9vqf | so that should be recompiled first I take it? |
samelian | yes |
*Baho has joined #trinity-desktop | |
samelian | so far, arts, kdelibs, kdebase, and kdepim are adapted to use new build system |
kb9vqf | ok |
samelian | qt is detected like this: |
samelian | for qt3: we have QT_PREFIX_DIR |
samelian | if QTDIR is found, QT_PREFIX_DIR copy QTDIR value |
samelian | if QTDIR is not set, default paths are /usr/include/qt3 |
samelian | QTDIR is ignored if tqt is set to use qt4 |
*lburton has joined #trinity-desktop | |
lburton | any chance anyone has made trinity go on ubuntu 11.04 ;)? |
lburton | also kb9vqf de n6udp :) |
*K`zan has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | not yet |
kb9vqf | and nice callsign ;-) |
kb9vqf | we are waiting for the CMake port to be finished |
lburton | fair enough :), just ran into your project, I was a KDE3/fluxbox/ion3 user back in the 3.0-3.5 days.. nowadays I'm an xmonad-only user when on linux because kde4/gnome are both.. not sure I know accurate words but.. kludgy, so I'm happy to see a kde3 project :) |
lburton | kb9vqf: a good friend of mine has n1tcp :) |
kb9vqf | :) |
kb9vqf | I hate to push back release on an Ubuntu LTS cycle, but in this case it is the best thing to do |
kb9vqf | It will allow us to use a less kludgy build system, less deprecated packages, etc. |
lburton | yeah, perhaps I'll give it a whirl on an arch system or one of my LTS ubuntu systems sometime soon :), go back to konq at least :) |
*Jota has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Jota | Hi! Anyone here? :-) |
Jota | Is there a date for the next Trinity release? At the site says 1 April, is this real? |
kb9vqf | nope |
kb9vqf | it will be pushed back |
kb9vqf | several months most likely |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: Want to update the Wiki for me? |
kb9vqf | Something like release TBD |
kb9vqf | and we will need to discuss it in the next meeting |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: sure |
kb9vqf | thanks |
Xu_R | can I have a link? |
kb9vqf | hmmm |
kb9vqf | Jota: Where did you see the April 1 date? |
Xu_R | oh, I see it. |
Jota | At the "Roadnap" at the Trinity site |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | that roadmap was made last year, so the dates are kind of stale |
kb9vqf | things took longer than expected, etc. |
Jota | ok |
Xu_R | done |
Xu_R | bed time :) night all |
Jota | but, on a Lenny/Squeeze install I noticed that for many months now theres not any Trinitu package updated... is this ok, or my apt-get is in trouble?? |
Jota | by the way, is there any chance Trinity will go into Debian repos, in the future?? |
Jota | and, in case you all are bored, one last question :-) |
Jota | there will be a live-CD of Trinity when the next Ubuntu gets released, next month? |
Jota | ok... bye |

MutantTurkey | samelian: ok, quick question about jpeg, what library provides it? there are several implementations of it so what should I do? |
samelian | MutantTurkey: libjpeg |
MutantTurkey | samelian: lok |
MutantTurkey | because I don't use libjpeg D: |
MutantTurkey | I use jpeg turbo |
samelian | wtf if jpeg turbo |
MutantTurkey | a faster jpeg implementation |
samelian | with same API as standard jpeg? |
MutantTurkey | yes |
MutantTurkey | I assume there will be no problem then |
samelian | ok then |
MutantTurkey | I will just have to detect it manually by checking for headers right? |
samelian | syre |
samelian | sure |
MutantTurkey | ok. |
MutantTurkey | samelian: I am all done except for ksvg, kpdf and the djvu plugin for kviewshell |
MutantTurkey | want me to email what I have over? |
samelian | yes |
MutantTurkey | ok |
MutantTurkey | what's your email again? |
MutantTurkey | and how do i tar it up? |
*field_it has joined #trinity-desktop | |
*EvilRoey has joined #trinity-desktop | |
EvilRoey | hi |
EvilRoey | hey got a qeustion for you all |
EvilRoey | regarding Konqueror, do you plan on having Webkit availability for it? |
MutantTurkey | yes |
MutantTurkey | the plan is when Qt4 is totally stable ( by the next release ) Konqueror will use webkit |
MutantTurkey | currently tqtinterface with qt4 is still being worked out, but in time we will port konqueror to the latest webkit functions provided by webkit's qt port. |
MutantTurkey | EvilRoey: ^^^ |
MutantTurkey | EvilRoey: any other questions? :) |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: are you around? I was just looking through the bug tracker and noticed a few that should be closed or marked WONT FIX |
EvilRoey | ok |
EvilRoey | what about dcop |
EvilRoey | are you going to port over to dbus or remain with dcop? |
EvilRoey | hey Tim :) |
MutantTurkey | dcop has things we don't have with dbus |
EvilRoey | ah |
MutantTurkey | If i recall properly, dbus is lacking certain features. |
EvilRoey | interesting |
EvilRoey | so wait, you're a medical student |
EvilRoey | with extensive open-source experience |
MutantTurkey | me? |
EvilRoey | and computer vision experien e |
EvilRoey | yeah |
*TokRa has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | I'm not medical student, but a student i am |
EvilRoey | I looked at your Kubuntu page |
EvilRoey | ah :) |
MutantTurkey | TokRa: haven't seen you in forever! |
EvilRoey | what are you studying? |
MutantTurkey | my kbuntu page? hmmm seems someone is using my name |
EvilRoey | Timothy Pearson? |
MutantTurkey | EvilRoey: I have not declared a major yet. |
MutantTurkey | EvilRoey: Timothy is kb9vqf :p not me |
TokRa | MutantTurkey: İyi günler. |
*TokRa pasveicina arī affect | |
EvilRoey | oh |
EvilRoey | Oh! |
EvilRoey | kb9vqf: hola |
MutantTurkey | :p little mixed up |
EvilRoey | TokRa: you're Turkish? |
affect | lol hi |
TokRa | EvilRoey: Actually, I am Latvian |
MutantTurkey | hallo affect |
affect | hi MutantTurkey |
TokRa | With some Google Translate skills, lol |
EvilRoey | ok I was wondering what the differenceis between i and ī |
EvilRoey | btw what do you think of lol now officially becoming a verb |
MutantTurkey | I say lol often outloud |
TokRa | EvilRoey: i sounds like english 'e', ī is more like 'ee' |
MutantTurkey | usually i make an L with one hand and a O with my right hand (like OK ) and then wave my left over my right, as in LOLOLOL |
EvilRoey | interesting |
*TokRa suddenly disappears | |
EvilRoey | hahahahaa |
EvilRoey | indeed, kb9vqf does appear to be Timothy Pearson |
MutantTurkey | anyhow, with dbus. I think we discussed using it, but dcop has certain fewatures that would need to be patched into dbus, can't recall though. also that would require extensive work to port it all over to dbus |
MutantTurkey | (if i remember correctly, my memory is not so good ) |
EvilRoey | ah |
EvilRoey | also, how many devs do you have? |
MutantTurkey | oh you know like 200-300 |
MutantTurkey | actually no, we have two devs |
MutantTurkey | main devs that is. |
MutantTurkey | samelian and kb9vqf, everyone else is involved in other aspects of the project, like packaging or the port to cmake |
MutantTurkey | EvilRoey: now that you ask these questions, It makes me think we should have a FAQ page... |
EvilRoey | Hahahaha :) |
MutantTurkey | :) |
EvilRoey | MutantTurkey: kb9vqf is your age? |
EvilRoey | or older? |
MutantTurkey | much older |
MutantTurkey | I assume D: |
MutantTurkey | I am quite young, turning 17 in june |
EvilRoey | ahhhhh okay :) |
MutantTurkey | :p I am just a dumb kid who uses linux too much |

Xu_R | kb9vqf: It's time to add onto the next edition of meeting todos! http://trinity.etherpad.trinitydesktop.org/19 |
kb9vqf | Wow I'm popular today :-P |
Xu_R | lol |
kb9vqf | haven't had much time to devote to Trinity lately |
kb9vqf | my work comes in fits and spurts |
Xu_R | fun. |
kb9vqf | Hopefully I can resume real work (i.e. development, not just Debian packaging on the side) in the next few weeks |
kb9vqf | until then I'm going to be rather hands-off |
Xu_R | well, that won't be that bad :P samelian won't have to keep changing his cmake :) |
kb9vqf | we have enough people involved now that I'm not at all concerned about the project dying in my absence ;-) |
Xu_R | oh, it won't die :) |
*kb9vqf notes that a year ago this was a very real concern | |
kb9vqf | much better now :) |
Xu_R | yup |
kb9vqf | on the plus side, if you run Qt4 Trinity apps in xfce or similar they are actually quite stable and nice |
Xu_R | :D |
kb9vqf | so I think the main problems must be somewhere in kwin/kdm/etc. |
Xu_R | probably. |
kb9vqf | any progress on the Konsole bug BTW? |
kb9vqf | it is possible that kdelibs has a problem |
Xu_R | nope - I probably won't be able to get to it again until Thursday :( |
kb9vqf | and such a problem MAY be manifesting as the Konsole bug under Qt3 and a crash under Qt4 |
kb9vqf | oh, ok |
Xu_R | oh? tracing it as a crash under Qt4, or a guess? :P |
kb9vqf | Just a guess |
Xu_R | ah, ok. |
kb9vqf | Usually the odd bugs crash Qt4 |
Xu_R | lol |
Xu_R | odd indeed. |
kb9vqf | Even using the $#!% NVidia drivers seem to crash Qt4 |
kb9vqf | *seems |
kb9vqf | of course, that is probably because NVidia decides it's a good thing to rip out the core C libraries and replace them with a proprietary version :-P |
kb9vqf | and of course that version breaks gdb :( |
kb9vqf | oh well |
Xu_R | :-\ |
kb9vqf | and BTW age doesn't matter on this project AFAIC |
kb9vqf | it's ability, availability, and dedication that count |
*kb9vqf is responding to an earlier poke by EvilRoey | |
Xu_R | yup |
kb9vqf | Other than confirming I am among the older members of this team, I will not say more :) |
Xu_R | :P |
samelian | actually, I think i'm oldest :) |
samelian | kb9vqf: i'm not sure that I can't reproduce you kdepim FTBFS |
samelian | seems that was happens something wrong while uic-ing |
samelian | kb9vqf: you can trigger another kdepim build, to check if the error persist? |
samelian | try with only one building thread |

kb9vqf | If you run into any problems w/ KDE 4.5 just ask on the mailing list |

MutantTurkey | hey all |
kb9vqf | hi |
kb9vqf | samelian: I don't know why the kdepim build is failing |
kb9vqf | everything seems good and I'm only using a single thread |
samelian | kb9vqf: you can show me smtpaccountwidget_base.cpp? |
kb9vqf | not at the moment, no |
kb9vqf | I would have to compile again on a slower machine |
samelian | seems that your uic ignore kcm container class |
kb9vqf | did you replicate my CMake build options when you tested it? |
samelian | yes |
kb9vqf | hmmm |
kb9vqf | odd |
samelian | i bet that smtpaccountwidget_base.cpp is not generated correctly |
kb9vqf | yes, but why I wonder? |
kb9vqf | why on amd64 and not i386? |
samelian | this happens when /opt/trinity/lib/kde3/plugins doesn't exists |
samelian | maybe on 64 bit machine is /opt/trinity/lib64/kde3/plugins ? |
kb9vqf | that I can check right now :) |
kb9vqf | kdelibs generates that I assume? |
samelian | yes |
kb9vqf | hang on |
kb9vqf | samelian: They are identical on bith amd64 and i386: |
kb9vqf | amd64: ./opt/trinity/lib/kde3/plugins/designer/kdewidgets.so |
kb9vqf | i386: /opt/trinity/lib/kde3/plugins/designer/kdewidgets.so |
samelian | aha |
samelian | I think you need to generate smtpaccountwidget_base.cpp manually |
samelian | and check it |
kb9vqf | well, I will fire off a build on the local machine |
kb9vqf | with single threading it will be late in the day before it completes |
kb9vqf | any luck finding the other FTBFS problem? |
kb9vqf | the one on i386? |
samelian | i'm not sure if I checked it |
samelian | show me the log again |
kb9vqf | https://quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/~trinity/+archive/trinity-nightly-builds/+build/3527 |
samelian | thx |
kb9vqf | np |
kb9vqf | samelian: Sorry, wrong log |
kb9vqf | This is the correct one: https://quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/~trinity/+archive/trinity-nightly-builds/+build/3541 |
*kb9vqf had stale data up in Firefox | |
samelian | if i'm not wrong, i386 FTBFS is related to gpgme |
kb9vqf | yes |
samelian | I need to look closer |
kb9vqf | ok |
samelian | kb9vqf: /build/buildd/kdepim-trinity-3.5.13/obj-i686-linux-gnu/knode/smtpaccountwidget_base.cpp:30: error: class 'KNConfig::SmtpAccountWidgetBase' does not have any field named 'KCModule' |
samelian | seems related to kcm module as well |
kb9vqf | and it builds fine for you |
kb9vqf | hmmm |
kb9vqf | I wonder if it needs a kdebase dependency |
kb9vqf | let me check if it has one |
*field_it has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | samelian: I had them flipped |
kb9vqf | amd64 fails on gpgme |
kb9vqf | http://quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net:58080/2056086/buildlog_ubuntu-maverick-amd64.kdepim-trinity_4%3A3.5.13-0ubuntu7%2Br1226268%2Bpr132_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz |
kb9vqf | i386 is the uic problem |
kb9vqf | sorr |
kb9vqf | *sorry |
samelian | hehe |
samelian | hmm, this will be hard to debug, because I have no amd64 machine there |
kb9vqf | And I don't have a pure i386 build system ATM |
kb9vqf | :-P |
kb9vqf | I guess I will have to work on the amd64 problem myself |
kb9vqf | samelian: This seems to be a strange way to run moc |
kb9vqf | /usr/bin/moc smtpaccountwidget_base.h >> smtpaccountwidget_base.cpp |
kb9vqf | shouldn't that be tmoc <something> ? |
samelian | for an uic generated file, is the same thing |
kb9vqf | oh, ok |
samelian | kb9vqf: getconf is installed on amd64 bit machine? |
samelian | MAX_CMD_LENGTH is found by getconf |
*K`zan has joined #trinity-desktop | |
*K`zan has joined #trinity-desktop | |
*TokRa has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | samelian: I found the i386 problem :) |
kb9vqf | not sure why you weren't seeing it, but the .ui file was missing an include driective |
kb9vqf | *directive |
samelian | weird, then why on my system is compiling without problem |
kb9vqf | I have no idea |
kb9vqf | fix is already in SVN |
samelian | ok |
kb9vqf | now just to figure out the MAX_CMD_LENGTH problem |
kb9vqf | samelian: What getconf command is being executed?> |
samelian | check if after configure stage, MAX_CMD_LENGTH is defined in config.h |
samelian | hang on |
samelian | kb9vqf: getconf ARG_MAX |
kb9vqf | hmm |
kb9vqf | works on my local amd64 system |
kb9vqf | let me check the builders |
kb9vqf | samelian: getconf is definitely installed |
kb9vqf | I'm wondering if the cmake configuration script that handles that call is being called though |
kb9vqf | samelian: I don't see a getconf error anywhere |
kb9vqf | Is it possible that this line does not run properly under amd64? |
kb9vqf | math( EXPR MAX_CMD_LENGTH "(${MAX_CMD_LENGTH} / 4) * 3" ) |
samelian | not sure |
kb9vqf | and why do we do this? |
kb9vqf | set( MAX_CMD_LENGTH ${MAX_CMD_LENGTH} CACHE INTERNAL "" FORCE ) |
kb9vqf | specifically the "" part? |
samelian | it's stored in cache to propagate to top level |
kb9vqf | ok |
samelian | "" it's a comment |
samelian | "" meaning "no comment" |
kb9vqf | oh, ok |
kb9vqf | it just seems weird |
samelian | yes |
kb9vqf | samelian: Can we print a message "Checking for maximum argument length"? |
kb9vqf | that way I can verify that the check is even being run |
samelian | sure |
kb9vqf | and also spit out the raw result output? |
kb9vqf | so the user should see "Checking for maximum argument length...found xxx" |
samelian | try this: message( STATUS "Checking for maximum argument length" ) |
kb9vqf | before execute_process, right? |
samelian | yes |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | then how do I spit out the raw result? |
samelian | and after checking, message( STATUS " found ${MAX_CMD_LENGTH}" |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | I'll recompile that and see if we can get more info |
samelian | ok, send me and email with the result |
kb9vqf | sure |
kb9vqf | thanks :) |
samelian | also, check if MAX_CMD_LENGTH is defined in config.h |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | I'll have to set up another amd64 builder....sigh.... |

kb9vqf | samelian: cp: cannot stat `/TEMP/kdepim-trinity-3.5.13/debian/tmp///opt/trinity/share/icons/hicolor/16x16/apps/akregator.png': No such file or directory |
kb9vqf | in kdepim |
samelian | kb9vqf: was built, finally? :) |
kb9vqf | yes |
kb9vqf | I found the amd64 problem |
kb9vqf | it's an overflow in the CMake math() function |
kb9vqf | so I hacked around it by detecting the resultant 0 and using the raw getconf output in that case |
kb9vqf | ugly, but it works |
samelian | interesting |
kb9vqf | samelian: the Akregator icon bug should be simple to fix, no? |
samelian | yes, i think |
samelian | I'm checking now |
kb9vqf | ok |
samelian | kb9vqf: fixed in SVN revision 1226579 |
kb9vqf | ok, recompiling now |
kb9vqf | thx |
kb9vqf | samelian: cp: cannot stat `/build/buildd/kdepim-trinity-3.5.13/debian/tmp///opt/trinity/share/icons/crystalsvg/16x16/actions/kalarm.png': No such file or directory |
samelian | checking... |
samelian | kb9vqf: fixed, i hope |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | recompiling.... |
kb9vqf | samelian: BTW how is kdegraphics coming? |
kb9vqf | I know MutantTurkey is pretty much in charge of it, just wondering where it was at |
samelian | not sure, MutantTurkey still working in it |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | so after kdepim, what next? |
samelian | kdevelop, kdewebdev, kdenetwork |
kb9vqf | ah, ok |
kb9vqf | I meant what are you/the CMake team porting next :) |
*kb9vqf knows he has his work cut out updating the packages ;-) | |
samelian | I told MutantTurkey to port kdegames, after kdegraphics |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | sounds reasonable |
*kb9vqf is tempted to port Amarok to TQt and compile under Qt4 :) | |
samelian | hehe |
samelian | amarok is not so simple |
kb9vqf | no it isn't |
samelian | because multiple backends for audio engine |
kb9vqf | you did port it to CMake already though, correct? |
samelian | yes, is usable |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | remember tqt udner Qt4 currently handles the entire kdebase/kdelibs pluggable module system without difficulty |
kb9vqf | so I don't expect Amarok to be that much of a problem |
samelian | if i'm not wrong, amarok using threads for backends |
kb9vqf | of course I will probably be proven wrong, but hey, it's worth a shot :) |
kb9vqf | yes, and they are a constant source of grief for some users |
kb9vqf | kdepim uses threads as well |
kb9vqf | I'm not sure which I want to try first |
samelian | you solved the problem with images in konqi? |
kb9vqf | yes |
samelian | aha, nice |
kb9vqf | it's getting there slowly |
kb9vqf | konqueror is usable as long as you use it under XDM/GDM/etc. |
kb9vqf | khtml doesn't work quite right, but everything else seems OK |
samelian | i see |
kb9vqf | I still classify it as test point, not even alpha yet |
kb9vqf | but progress is being made |
samelian | for sure |
samelian | hehe, Darell is upatient :) |
*MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | o/ |
MutantTurkey | samelian: around? |
kb9vqf | samelian: cp: cannot stat `/build/buildd/kdepim-trinity-3.5.13/debian/tmp///opt/trinity/share/icons/crystalsvg/16x16/actions/kalarm.png': No such file or directory |
kb9vqf | that looks like the same problem |
samelian | weird |
samelian | show me entire log |
kb9vqf | samelian: https://quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/~trinity/+archive/trinity-nightly-builds/+build/3567 |
samelian | kb9vqf: where is set this message? "Multiple versions of QT found please set DESIRED_QT_VERSION" |
kb9vqf | I don't know |
kb9vqf | the problem is in the icon installation though; it compiles just fine |
samelian | kb9vqf: are you sure that is correct log? |
kb9vqf | fairly sure |
kb9vqf | unless it didn't pick the change from SVN |
samelian | the only error is "/build/buildd/kdepim-trinity-3.5.13/debian/tmp///opt/trinity/lib/kde3/kfile_palm.la': No such file or directory" |
kb9vqf | oh wait |
kb9vqf | i bet I had stale data again |
kb9vqf | in FIrefox |
kb9vqf | :-P |
kb9vqf | yeah sorry |
kb9vqf | samelian: Is kfile_palm part of kpilot? |
samelian | not sure, hang on |
samelian | kb9vqf: yes |
kb9vqf | ok |
samelian | kb9vqf: why you did this? |
samelian | SET( TQT_PKGCFG_NAME "TQt" ) |
samelian | pkg_search_module( TQT ${TQT_PKGCFG_NAME} ) |
kb9vqf | samelian: To get Qt4 working again |
samelian | what happens without it? |
kb9vqf | Qt4 installs tqt.pc |
kb9vqf | not TQt.pc |
samelian | is any reason for this? |
kb9vqf | and I have no desire to change it :-P |
kb9vqf | I don't know |
kb9vqf | it's buried in the TQt/Qt4 qmake system |
kb9vqf | and I really don't have time to track it down |
samelian | actually all code can be rewritten like this: |
samelian | pkg_search_module( TQT "tqt" "TQt" ) |
kb9vqf | oh |
samelian | pkg_search_module(<PREFIX> [REQUIRED] [QUIET] <MODULE> [<MODULE>]*) |
samelian | checks for given modules and uses the first working one |
*kb9vqf did not know that | |
kb9vqf | feel free to fix it if you want :) |
samelian | hehe, i'm not sure if I will not broke qt4 again |
kb9vqf | Every time I try to do something in CMake I make a bigger mess it seems |
samelian | hehe |
samelian | ok, I will clean it up |
kb9vqf | thanks |
samelian | kb9vqf: actually I will revert it to original code and I will add "tqt" for searched modules |
kb9vqf | ok |
samelian | should work |
kb9vqf | don't see why not |
kb9vqf | I added the needed defs to tqt.pc already:) |
samelian | actually, if you want, I can rename TQt.pc to tqt.pc as well |
kb9vqf | it might be easier |
samelian | to not maintain two versions |
kb9vqf | actually I would strongly recommend that |
samelian | ok then |
kb9vqf | tqt.pc is more in line with what I have seen |
samelian | kb9vqf: you has any reason to add SKIP_TMOC variable? |
kb9vqf | samelian: I think you can get ridof it now |
samelian | ok |
Xu_R | hi all, |
Xu_R | the april meeting dates are now up. |
Xu_R | see the trinity-devel email message for more details. |
samelian | kb9vqf: done, I renamed TQt.pc to tqt.pc |

MutantTurkey | samelian: get my email? |
samelian | yes |

MutantTurkey | D: where? |
MutantTurkey | I thought i nabbed everything |
samelian | for example, this |
samelian | SOURCES kzcolorselector.cpp imageselection.cpp |
samelian | texteditselection.cpp gradientselection.cpp colorselector.cpp |
samelian | kxycolorselector.cpp paletteview.cpp paletteviewscrolledarea.cpp |
MutantTurkey | what is wrong with that? |
samelian | there is not correct indnt |
samelian | should be: |
MutantTurkey | D: |
samelian | SOURCE |
samelian | texteditselection.cpp gradientselection.cpp colorselector.cpp |
samelian | kxycolorselector.cpp paletteview.cpp paletteviewscrolledarea.cpp |
MutantTurkey | you would like the sources to be on a new line? ok |
samelian | yes, and indented relative to "SOURCE" by two spaces |
MutantTurkey | right |
MutantTurkey | I use 2 space indent for everything |
samelian | also, delete end spaces |
MutantTurkey | strip trailing spaces? |
MutantTurkey | yeah there's a macro for that also I assume |
MutantTurkey | I can use sed or something xD |
samelian | yes |
MutantTurkey | ok, anything else you'd like? |
samelian | also |
samelian | ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/lib/ |
samelian | delete last / |
MutantTurkey | right D: I tried to get them all might have forgotten |
samelian | also, keep two blank lines between sections |
samelian | you still using sometimes tab instead spaces |
samelian | at end of file, should be only one blank spaces, not two, nor more |
MutantTurkey | at the end of files it sohuld be one extra line with a blank space |
MutantTurkey | I don't use any tabs though, my editor doesn't allow it, must be remains from other files I've copied |
samelian | last line should be blank, no spaces at all |
MutantTurkey | ok |
samelian | in kooka/pics/CMakeLists.txt you use tabs |
MutantTurkey | ok hmmm weird |
MutantTurkey | okay, and sorry I have been extremely busy this week and won't have much time till next week :\ |

penguinbait | is this only x86? |
edakiri | penguinbait: http://mirror.trinity.lv/trinity/debian/ you can see by investigating this link that armel is not supported. |
edakiri | penguinbait: but if you wish to build it, perhaps people here would give you guidance. |
penguinbait | Well I am really more of a brute force hack, well compiling it all does not scare me, I have done it before on maemo, but I am not a package maintainer or a developer, just a average unix admin :) |
penguinbait | but thanks for answering |
penguinbait | I tell you all now, this is needed, as KDE4 just beats down my armel device and disk access is nonstop with akonadi in constant wait. |

Z_God | kb9vqf: my collegue installed trinity on an existing ubuntu lucid system and now he also has this kgtk2-wrapper problem, it seems this issue is still present in the lucid version.... |
kb9vqf | Z_God: Any more details on the problem? |
Z_God | kb9vqf: what would you like to know? |
Z_God | he was using a normal ubuntu lucid installation with gnome |
*samelian has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Z_God | and installed trinity today with the instructions from the site |
Z_God | now in gnome firefox f.e. gives the kgtk2-wrapper error |
kb9vqf | what error exactly? |
Z_God | "Failed to execute child process "kgtk2-wrapper" (No such file or directory)" |
kb9vqf | oh, yes, now I remember |
kb9vqf | it's fixed in Maverick |
Z_God | ah ok |
Z_God | so just need to fix the files again? |
kb9vqf | the .desktop files, yes |
Z_God | alright, thank you very much, I just told my colleague |
*penguinbait has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | np |
Z_God | he came up with this solution btw: grep -ZlR -e "wrapper" /usr/share/applications/* # | xargs -0 sed -si -e "s/kgtk2-wrapper //g" |
Z_God | ;) |
MutantTurkey | Z_God: that is probably worth mentioning somewhere. maybe throw it on the bug report as a temp fix or something? |
MutantTurkey | samelian: around? |
MutantTurkey | for a kdeinit executable (tde_add_kdeinit_executable( ) do i need a DESTINATION? should it be just the regular ${BIN_INSTALL_DIR}? |
samelian | MutantTurkey: you don't need a destination |
samelian | tde_add_kdeinit_executable actually generate 5 files, if i'm not wrong |
samelian | executable, shared library, module, and .la files |
MutantTurkey | okay D: |
MutantTurkey | sounds scary |
MutantTurkey | samelian: I made another run through fixing up more formatting and such. |
samelian | ok |
MutantTurkey | want me to email again so you can look over? |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: can we get a redirect for bugs.trinitydesktop.org? |
Z_God | MutantTurkey: it seems there's no bug about it, should I still create one? |
Z_God | I don't know if there's still the intention to provide fixes for lucid? |
MutantTurkey | I don't think so, though I would at least mention it on the Mailing List first |
MutantTurkey | then with some direction you may need to place a bug or not i don't know |
Z_God | ok, I guess it's not so important now though, it seems the devs are mainly focussed on the Qt4 port now, which I can understand :) |
Z_God | they've been aware of the problem for a while and it's even fixed in the newer releases |

asdfjehsdkh | Yo... I just followed some instructions for installing Trinity on Ubuntu and now in the terminal it says: "Configuring kdm-kde3" and "default display manager: gdm, kdm-kde 3" .. Which one do I choose? |
asdfjehsdkh | gdm or kdm-kde3? |
asdfjehsdkh | Just wing it? |
asdfjehsdkh | My impatience will probably fuck up my computer, but fuck it. I'll go the second option and hope for the best. :) |
asdfjehsdkh | sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) |
asdfjehsdkh | Shit... |
asdfjehsdkh | Well, I'm going to see if sudo apt-get upgrade fixes anthing... |

MutantTurkey | anyone seem tim around? |
Xu_R | yea - last night |
Xu_R | he's been busy with real-life stuff, apparently. |
MutantTurkey | hmmm ok |
MutantTurkey | I've been super busy as well, but my schedule has finally cleared up. |
Xu_R | nice. |
Xu_R | i've got another 2 weeks to bear with >_< |
MutantTurkey | D: one month of school and I am done :) |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: any thoughts on calligra office? |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: lucky >:O |
MutantTurkey | :) |
Xu_R | calligra office? it's pretty good. but I want to wait until they make it pure Qt |
MutantTurkey | I agree |
Xu_R | otherwise, we will likely run into roadblocks. |
MutantTurkey | they definitely are because they are trying to compete with libreoffice |
Xu_R | Maybe if kb9vqf gets TQt for Qt4 done, we can convince them to switch over to using TQt :P |
MutantTurkey | we wouldn't need to |
MutantTurkey | I mean using Qt4 is fine |
Xu_R | I know, but imagine if. |
MutantTurkey | :p |
aalecs | hi |
aalecs | where is serghei |
aalecs | samelian |
Xu_R | aalecs: wish I knew :-0\ |
MutantTurkey | not sure, haven't seen him since yesterday |
aalecs | ah |
MutantTurkey | aalecs: sorry bud |
aalecs | nb, just asking of curiosity |
aalecs | my kde won't live up to soon :) |

shakaz | hello |
shakaz | just wondering if it's safe to install trinity on a debian sid system running kde4 atm? |
shakaz | and what version to use if so, as squeeze has been released, sid is moving away |
aalecs | tde is not bugging kde libs/apps |
MutantTurkey | I forgot squeeze is out |
aalecs | so you could install me thinks |
MutantTurkey | shakaz: I think you can install them along side eachother, just not build them together (as far as i remember) |
MutantTurkey | using our quickbuild should be fine though. |
MutantTurkey | shakaz: and I suggest you using our stable (3.5.12) |
shakaz | should i use the squeeze repositories? |
MutantTurkey | you are running sid? yes squeeze should be fine. |
aalecs | is 3.5.12 in the squeeze repos ? |
MutantTurkey | aalecs: no :) he means he is using our squeeze repos |
aalecs | ah |
aalecs | yeah, correctly enough |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: also quickbuild should be on trinitydesktop.org i think :) (i keep noticing things that need to be added) |
shakaz | ok because i read a blog about a sid user saying he would switch to testing repos once squeeze would be released |
shakaz | but the only testing repos i see are for slackware |
MutantTurkey | shakaz: where is the blog? :) i am interested |
aalecs | me3 |
shakaz | quickbuild i don't know about it, the blog is here http://lxer.com/module/forums/t/31333/ a bit dated though |
MutantTurkey | shakaz: i am not a debian user unfortunately, I suggest you talk to kb9vqf or send an email on the mailing list |
shakaz | i remember about trinity because they mentioned it on this weeks distrowatch weekly in the comments http://distrowatch.com/weekly.php?issue=20110404 |
MutantTurkey | shakaz: interesting article. |
MutantTurkey | shakaz: so, I suggest you follow these instructions for squeeze: http://trinitydesktop.org/installation.php#debian |
aalecs | the guy has some points there |
shakaz | quickbuild are more up to date i guess ? |
MutantTurkey | shakaz: I am a bit fuzzy on it. again, It would be good to ask on the Mailing List. |
MutantTurkey | I didn't realize how unclear it is, I'll make a note to add it to the website later on explaining what quickbuild is. thanks |
shakaz | if it's the nightly builds, they seem to be targeting ubuntu :( |
MutantTurkey | yes, but ubuntu and debian are pretty interoperable package wise |
MutantTurkey | Ubuntu is just the best supported because our project leader uses it, we have opensuse, fedora?, archlinux, ark, and slackware all in the works |
aalecs | and alt ;) |
MutantTurkey | shakaz: anyway gotta go to bed, but If you have questions the mailing list or here is always good :) |
MutantTurkey | night all. |
aalecs | night, though here is morning |
shakaz | yeah for small apps they can be, but for something like a desktop environment and considering ubuntu seems to be gearing towards disruptive changes in the near future i'm not sure i'm comfortable doing that |
shakaz | thanks for the help though :) |
aalecs | shakaz: packages for ubuntu should work on debian |
aalecs | the changes that will be made on ubuntu are not connected with packages existing now |
aalecs | packages existing from TDE i mean |
shakaz | well i'll give it try, see if i can come back to a sane, fast and powerfull environment as kde used to be |
aalecs | shakaz: what glibc version do you have |
shakaz | TDE? |
shakaz | ah ok |
shakaz | got it |
aalecs | TDE= trinity desktop |
aalecs | i've got kde crashing because of glibc update, and all that |
aalecs | that's why i was asking |
aalecs | *** glibc has detected an error in kdesktop: malloc(): memory corruption: 0x0000000000785540 *** |
aalecs | ======= Backtrace: ========= |
aalecs | /lib64/libc.so.6(+0x71b46)[0x7f3df823db46] |
aalecs | .. |
shakaz | is there a way to install only the core of trinty because sudo apt-get install desktop-base-trinity kde-trinity install a lot of packages i don't care about |
aalecs | by hand, apt-get what you want |
aalecs | i`m not a debian fan, don`t got a deb around |
shakaz | found a solution |
shakaz | apt-get install desktop-base-trinity kde-core-trinity |
shakaz | and then and the ones i want :p |
shakaz | with the core it's down to 52 packages 66MB instead of 295/230MB for the full install... |
shakaz | with the packages i added manually i got to 102/134MB in the end |
shakaz | and saved 300MB and some cruft after installation |
aalecs | :D |
shakaz | just hope it won't have incompatibilities with the existing install |
aalecs | it shouldnt |
shakaz | inch allah |
shakaz | i'll soon find out |
aalecs | i don't know how's on deb, but here on alt we have kde 3 in /usr/lib/kde3 and kde 4 in /usr/lib/kde4.. also, PATH is set by each de, so kde3 does not kave the path of kde4, and the opposite |
shakaz | and the /home/user/.kde ? |
aalecs | [alecs@rainsoul ~]$ ls .kde |
aalecs | .kde/ .kde3/ |
aalecs | kde is for 4 |
aalecs | .kde3 is for.. obviously, 3 |
aalecs | :) |
shakaz | ok should be fine then |
shakaz | will try in 2 minutes |
*shakaz has joined #trinity-desktop | |
aalecs | shakaz: did it work ? |
shakaz | yep :p |
shakaz | seems ok so far |
aalecs | good :) |
shakaz | got my theme sorted out |
shakaz | seems ok so far style as i like it |
shakaz | will see in a couple of daysif i don't stumble on anything bad |
shakaz | seems more responsive than kde4 ... as expected :p |
aalecs | eh, kde 3 always was better |
aalecs | ;) |
shakaz | for sure |
aalecs | i`m on xfce for some while, because i got issues with glibc |
shakaz | still is |
shakaz | hope this project will get more attention |
aalecs | i used tde some time, but now i am waiting to solve the glibc issue |
shakaz | hahaa konqueror feels soo good again |
aalecs | lol |
aalecs | try krusader ;) |

kb9vqf | aalecs: Are you still on? |
kb9vqf | I have run into the glibc issue myself now |
kb9vqf | No fix ATM, but I was wondering if you could send a full backtrace to the mailing list |
kb9vqf | So far the affected section of code is squeaky clean as far as I can tell, so I'm leaning towards an actual bug in glibc/gcc/g++ |
kb9vqf | The bug would be improper memory allocation for nested constructors when creating new objects with new() |
aalecs | kb9vqf: hi |
kb9vqf | hello |
kb9vqf | see above :) |
aalecs | well, i can run kdesktop now within xfce |
aalecs | if you want |
aalecs | it crashes the same |
kb9vqf | sure |
aalecs | mkay |
aalecs | ok, i`m joining the ml now and sending |
kb9vqf | thx |
aalecs | i was on the buglist only |
aalecs | me thx |
aalecs | :) |
kb9vqf | ah |
kb9vqf | bug #? |
aalecs | w8 |
*kb9vqf has been out sick for a few days now, so I may or may not be able to work on it for a while | |
kb9vqf | but having the information in one place has to help :) |
aalecs | oh, what did you have ? |
kb9vqf | A nasty virus |
aalecs | http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=456 |
tbottu | Bug 456 blo, P5, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, kdesktop crashes under altlinux sisyphus |
kb9vqf | Ah, same place again |
kb9vqf | initRoot() |
aalecs | oh, glad you're better then |
aalecs | and if u want i can post another comment with the current backtrace |
kb9vqf | Sure |
aalecs | ok |
kb9vqf | I bet initRoot() will the the culprit again though |
kb9vqf | Any other crashes or is kdesktop the only problem> |
kb9vqf | ? |
aalecs | the only |
aalecs | rest works, konqueror, quanta etc |
kb9vqf | ok |
aalecs | what i do use |
kb9vqf | that's what I saw as well |
aalecs | i have panel, control center etc |
kb9vqf | right |
aalecs | but kdesktop crashes |
kb9vqf | same on my test systems |
kb9vqf | x86_64 or i386? |
aalecs | and when kdesktop crashes i get some errors about system:/ location (when on tde) and that`s it |
aalecs | 64bit |
aalecs | x86_64 |
kb9vqf | ok |
aalecs | but ix86 is afected too |
kb9vqf | mine occurred under i386 as well, so arch is not an issue |
aalecs | i got mates having x86 |
aalecs | yes |
aalecs | exactly |
kb9vqf | gcc version? |
aalecs | 4.5.1 |
kb9vqf | hmm, ok |
kb9vqf | mine was 4.4 |
aalecs | gcc version 4.5.1 20101130 (ALT Linux 4.5.1-alt8) (GCC) |
aalecs | we have this bug for quite a while, but i noticed kind of hard because was always booting into xfce |
kb9vqf | I do remember pinning the kdepim build to gcc 4.3 a while back due to an odd crash |
kb9vqf | I wonder if gcc4.4/gcc4.5 have a bug |
aalecs | i remember this too, from people using alt |
kb9vqf | well, thanks for the info :) |
kb9vqf | I'll see what I can do |
aalecs | till now, i read of issues with glibc and different stuff |
kb9vqf | It is probably a compiler/libc problem |
aalecs | and we think that glibc is guilty |
aalecs | yes |
kb9vqf | right |
kb9vqf | but seeing as no fix has been forthcoming.... |
aalecs | the issue appeared on alt when multiple people using tde updated to the latest alt glibc |
kb9vqf | I may need to restructure some of the Trinity code to avoid the bug |
kb9vqf | Or create a definite test case for the glibc folks |
kb9vqf | Either way it will take some time |
aalecs | yep, i know |
aalecs | our bug is here |
aalecs | https://bugzilla.altlinux.org/25175 |
kb9vqf | BTW I am pretty sure it's a compilation issue under glibc |
kb9vqf | The original binaries produced with the older glibc do not crash |
aalecs | same here, i wrote about this there too |
kb9vqf | ok |
aalecs | yes |
kb9vqf | good |
kb9vqf | :) |
kb9vqf | This all helps to narrow it down |
aalecs | and i read on some forums (links on that buglist) the issue is not only with tde, there are some other pieces of software too |
kb9vqf | Yes |
aalecs | and it is related to the change of malloc under glibc |
kb9vqf | which makes perfect sense |
aalecs | yup |
aalecs | colleagues from alt thought that it could be from apps running at start (eg krandtray) |
aalecs | we tried to solve it |
aalecs | dd not work |
kb9vqf | I think it has to do with code like this: http://pastebin.com/4TQGZEN3 |
aalecs | also, under older glibc, no issue |
kb9vqf | Upon attempting to malloc Foo3 the memory corruption occurs |
kb9vqf | This is what I will be testing |
kb9vqf | The structure of the affected kdesktop code is very similar to this |
aalecs | and i written about the fact that under branch 5.0/5.1, with the binaries from TDE, I did not get any crashes... |
aalecs | aha |
aalecs | i get it |
kb9vqf | nested new() in constructors :) |
kb9vqf | It's a strong possibility |
kb9vqf | kdepim does the same thing |
aalecs | they kind of f****d stuff with updates to glibc, and other |
kb9vqf | yes |
aalecs | me has issues because of php 5.3 with some pieces of scripts |
aalecs | for example i have vhcs on a server (hosting) patched and secured by me, i wrote some code and made it work better. ofc, i wrote on php 5.2.. under 5.3 hell breaks loose.. :( |
kb9vqf | hehe |
*kb9vqf has seen similar | |
aalecs | isse is there are other gpl panels and not only gpl |
aalecs | that on php 5.3 just die |
aalecs | at least stuff in perl does not get obsolete so fast :)) |
aalecs | same problems with ruby.. |
aalecs | etc |
kb9vqf | It is strange, too, as PHP was quite stable for many years |
kb9vqf | Same with glibc |
kb9vqf | I am getting concerned about the overall quality of Linux software now |
kb9vqf | It used to be very high quality |
aalecs | they changed functions in php, like preg_replace etc |
aalecs | it's quality, but they fscked different apps |
kb9vqf | it's only quality for certain areas |
aalecs | yes |
kb9vqf | It used to be very hard to break things in general |
aalecs | well, we are using bleeding edge versions of stuff |
aalecs | like glibc :D |
kb9vqf | glibc isn't |
kb9vqf | It's several versions out of date here |
aalecs | though they said it is stable |
aalecs | right |
kb9vqf | right |
kb9vqf | Stable is supposed to be darn-near-impossible-to-break |
aalecs | why did they change malloc ? |
*kb9vqf has no idea | |
*aalecs neither | |
kb9vqf | probably for performance reasons |
kb9vqf | or my favorite: "It makes the code simpler and easier to maintain..." |
aalecs | and why it is not documented, so we know what to freakin do |
kb9vqf | Here's something interesting |
kb9vqf | Set MALLOC_CHECK_ to 1 |
kb9vqf | Bingo, problems go away |
kb9vqf | The only difference? The malloc() handling changes :) |
kb9vqf | MALLOC_CHECK_ is an environment variable read by glibc only |
kb9vqf | 1 is supposed to be exacly the same as if it was unset (i.e. it will abort on memory corruption), except that a different malloc() scheme is used |
aalecs | so if i set that it does not hack ? |
aalecs | break* |
kb9vqf | Yup |
kb9vqf | Set it before running kdesktop |
kb9vqf | Now I do NOT want to ship Trinity with that enabled |
kb9vqf | It's a debug tool |
kb9vqf | But it squarely places the blame on glibc |
aalecs | declare -x MALLOC_CHECK_="1" |
aalecs | it sticll breaks |
*eugenesan has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | aalecs: Try "EXPORT MALLOC_CHECK_=1" |
eugenesan | Hi all |
kb9vqf | s/EXPORT/export/g |
eugenesan | I am trying to add component to kdebase, are there any guidelines for tQT porting? |
aalecs | aha, works |
kb9vqf | See? ;-) |
kb9vqf | eugenesan: Not yet |
aalecs | kb9vqf: 10q |
kb9vqf | eugenesan: Other than that QWidget becomes TQWidget, etc. |
kb9vqf | aalecs: ? |
aalecs | kb9vqf: thanks = ten q :) |
kb9vqf | ah, ok |
kb9vqf | np :) |
aalecs | now i have a freaking desktop :)) |
aalecs | kde mixed with xfce |
aalecs | :D |
kb9vqf | Hehe |
kb9vqf | "Be advised that long term usage of the MALLOC_CHECK_ environment variable is not recommended and has not been tested, and therefore it may decide to eat your files and cat at some time during the night" |
kb9vqf | :) |
aalecs | =)) |
eugenesan | @kb9vqf: Is it possible at least provide list of "wrapped" objects? |
kb9vqf | eugenesan: All are wrapped |
kb9vqf | Every Qt provided object has a TQ equivalent |
kb9vqf | What little information has been written down is on the Wiki |
kb9vqf | Let me grab the link |
kb9vqf | http://www.trinitydesktop.org/wiki/bin/view/Developers/TQtForQt4 |
kb9vqf | Actually there is more there than I thought :) |
kb9vqf | Look under "Porting Notes" |
aalecs | kb9vqf: i will want to port baghira to tde |
aalecs | after this issue is solved |
kb9vqf | sure |
kb9vqf | this problem has also been hindering my efforts to build under Qt4 |
kb9vqf | So it is the next item I need to take care of |
aalecs | under what glibc did you have issues ? |
eugenesan | <@kb9vqf>: Great! |
kb9vqf | aalecs: Hang on |
aalecs | 2.11.3 here |
kb9vqf | 2.26 here |
aalecs | oh, a lot forward |
kb9vqf | eugenesan: np :) |
kb9vqf | aalecs: Oh, that's why, glibc is a RedHat product |
kb9vqf | :-P |
*kb9vqf has a strong distaste for RedHat | |
*aalecs 2 | |
kb9vqf | For exactly this reason in fact :) |
aalecs | i sometimes use centos, but not to often |
aalecs | the rest of time alt and some small debian time |
kb9vqf | I pretty much use Ubuntu and Debian exclusively |
aalecs | i use centos because of some stuff that runs only on centos |
kb9vqf | The only CentOS install I have is for the business telephones |
aalecs | and the community for the stuff sucks |
aalecs | (bluequartz and blueonyx) |
aalecs | they are rhel/centos lovers |
kb9vqf | Ah |
kb9vqf | Well, I avoided GFS2 because it was another poorly documented RedHat piece of software |
kb9vqf | Used OCFS2 instead |
kb9vqf | Painless :) |
aalecs | yeah, issue is a lot of stuff relies on gvfs |
aalecs | see thunar for example |
aalecs | gimp even |
kb9vqf | RedHat wants it that way though |
kb9vqf | So you pay $$$$$$$ for support |
kb9vqf | Even though I'm sure half of it is routed through India |
aalecs | eh, at least i did not have major issues till now |
kb9vqf | yes |
aalecs | half ? i say 75% |
kb9vqf | Hehe |
kb9vqf | "Have you tried restarting your computer yet sir" |
aalecs | here in romania we say redhoit |
aalecs | hoit in romanian means dead body |
kb9vqf | :)) |
aalecs | and another version would be rahat linux |
kb9vqf | I never felt like I was actually in control of the RedHat systems I have tried over time |
aalecs | rahat in romanian meaning shit |
kb9vqf | More like they were in control :-/ |
aalecs | thats why i started my real linux live with slackware, mandrake and altlinux |
aalecs | :D |
kb9vqf | Under Debian at least I can build things, run my own package repositories, and generally do anything I want to the sytem and *know* what is going to happen :) |
aalecs | i played with RH |
aalecs | and i said WTF |
aalecs | and gave it to others |
aalecs | same here |
aalecs | under alt |
aalecs | alt is nice because it takes the best from debian, and the best from fedora.. |
kb9vqf | Ah |
aalecs | it started as a fork of mandrake, but we are on our own now |
kb9vqf | The only Fedora I liked was an old FC3 release |
kb9vqf | It just kept chugging away on my old Pentium II for many years |
aalecs | well, don't get me wrong, we are not fedora :D |
kb9vqf | No problems, no hassles |
kb9vqf | Oh I know :) |
aalecs | some rpm, specs stuff, and some stuff from debian |
kb9vqf | Just saying that there are some aspects of the older Fedora that I liked |
aalecs | yup |
aalecs | i did not install a fedora since core 2 i think |
kb9vqf | I tried Core 4 right before I went back to windows for a time |
kb9vqf | I think that was the release that had massive file system corruption problems |
kb9vqf | It ate a good chunk of my data :( |
aalecs | :( |
eugenesan | @kb9vqf: TQtForQt4 page refers to "automated" conversion method, is there a conversion script? |
aalecs | well, god you play with debian |
kb9vqf | eugenesan: Yes, but they are not on the Wiki |
kb9vqf | I have them on my local machine |
kb9vqf | The ones on the Wiki will work, but they are test point qualoity |
kb9vqf | *quality |
kb9vqf | You will need to clean up the resulting code |
kb9vqf | And no I'm not ready to publish my local scripts yet ;-0 |
kb9vqf | ;-) |
kb9vqf | aalecs: Yup, I never had anything like that happen under Debian |
aalecs | same here under alt |
aalecs | i got some alt machines in the world |
eugenesan | <@kb9vqf> I can't find conversion tool on wiki. And are there any chance to get you local variant? I am ready to "clean" after it. |
kb9vqf | eugenesan: http://www.trinitydesktop.org/wiki/bin/view/Developers/TQtAutomatedConversion |
kb9vqf | The scripts are there |
aalecs | eugenesan: you have to clean after the online variant |
aalecs | :) |
eugenesan | Thanks |
kb9vqf | eugenesan: Also it looks like I did not upload the note 1 converter |
kb9vqf | Hang on |
eugenesan | ok |
kb9vqf | eugenesan: The other three conversion scripts, which handle Note 1, are in SVN at trinity/trinity/dependencies/tqtinterface/qtinterface/convert* |
kb9vqf | I didn't put them on the Wiki as they are pretty much finished |
eugenesan | @kb9vqf: dependencies is not accesible without valid username |
kb9vqf | eugenesan: It should be public access |
eugenesan | @kb9vqf: Via SVN i mean, |
kb9vqf | Did you use the anonsvn URL? |
kb9vqf | svn co svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/branches/trinity/dependencies/tqtinterface ./ |
kb9vqf | I know the TQt docs and scripts are a mess :) |
eugenesan | @kb9vqf: Oh, I refered svn.trinitydesktop.org |
kb9vqf | Ah |
kb9vqf | That's our private dev repository |
kb9vqf | Contains things like the non-public releases of TQt for Qt4 |
kb9vqf | It's restricted so that people don't pull completely broken code |
eugenesan | Didn't know tqtinterface exists in anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/branches/trinity |
kb9vqf | That's the Qt3 version |
kb9vqf | The Qt3 version is stable |
kb9vqf | The Qt4 version is on svn.trinitydesktop.org and is unstable |
kb9vqf | There is a little more info here: http://www.trinitydesktop.org/wiki/bin/view/Developers/TrinityQt |
eugenesan | Ok I'll stick with Qt3 for a while. But should I do anything special for future Qt4 compatibility? |
kb9vqf | Just follow the TQt guidelines and you should be set |
eugenesan | Ok, thanks for help |
kb9vqf | np :) |
aalecs | eugenesan: but what do you want to add to base ? |
eugenesan | The component I am workign on is kscope |
eugenesan | It heavely based on kate libs, so I decided to stick them togather |
aalecs | nice |
aalecs | good luck then |
aalecs | :) |
eugenesan | thanks |
aalecs | pf sometimes i look at kids around, i was not that stupid at their age |
aalecs | they broken glibc, but broken kids too |
aalecs | they want to build sites, but don;t know what is a relative path |

aalecs | I confirm that hack works |
aalecs | Thanks :) |
aalecs | so the malloc hack works |
kb9vqf | hehe |
kb9vqf | I discovered that myself :) |
kb9vqf | Glad to hear it is of use |
aalecs | we at alt are conservative and like kde3 :D i mean tde |
aalecs | so want it a lot :D |
kb9vqf | :) |
kb9vqf | I'm doing my best to find the code that triggers the glibc bug |
kb9vqf | Glad to hear that there is a dedicated user base out there! |
aalecs | well, think at the fact that we build custom isos a lot, and like our DE/WN/etc to work well, not sluggish, and even on non powerfull systems |
aalecs | :D |
aalecs | so yeah, dont want kde4.. |
aalecs | and gnome |
aalecs | kde3, xfce, e17, fluxbox |
kb9vqf | Gnome is only good for people who want to browse the internet :-P\ |
kb9vqf | I tried to use it once |
aalecs | hhhh |
kb9vqf | It reminded me of Windows 3.1 in terms of functionality |
aalecs | im on xfce, and will be back to kde soon |
aalecs | xfce is kind of ok, fast enogh, knows custom scripts in menu |
aalecs | is ok |
kb9vqf | Well, if you want to enable the MALLOC_CHECK_ hack globally, just alter /opt/kde3/bin/startkde to export it somewhere near the beginning |
aalecs | yup |
aalecs | i know :) |
kb9vqf | But you didn't hear that nastiness from me.... |
kb9vqf | :) |
aalecs | i prefer not hacking stuff |
kb9vqf | me too |
kb9vqf | well, hacking in the old sense is good |
kb9vqf | i.e. improving software |
aalecs | if i did know c/qt and had time i would of started to debug that |
aalecs | but dont have time on a hand, and on the other.. i`m not a knower |
aalecs | :D |
kb9vqf | It's OK |
kb9vqf | We can't expect everyone to be a C/Qt dev |
aalecs | If MALLOC_CHECK_ is explicitly set a value other than 0, this causes |
aalecs | glibc to perform more tests that are more extensive than the default, |
aalecs | and may impact performance. |
kb9vqf | There are very few people that are competent in those areas |
kb9vqf | Right |
aalecs | Should you have a program from a third party ISV that triggers these |
aalecs | corruption checks and displays a message, you should file a defect |
aalecs | report with the application's vendor, since this indicates a serious |
aalecs | bug. |
aalecs | ok, and the mate asks me where those messages should appear |
kb9vqf | So enabling MALLOC_CHECK_ should actually enable more strict checking |
kb9vqf | Yet here it works around the glibc internal bug |
aalecs | And where you can see this message about the reason for failure? |
aalecs | he asks me |
kb9vqf | ? |
aalecs | he wants to know where the messages should appear |
kb9vqf | Which messages? |
aalecs | well, i think he did not get it :D |
aalecs | the messdages of failure |
aalecs | if it does not fail, there will not be a message |
kb9vqf | ah |
kb9vqf | It depends on how you start Trinity |
kb9vqf | Personally I kill kdesktop, then launch it from a terminal |
kb9vqf | Then I can see the messages on that termanal |
aalecs | yup |
aalecs | he thought there would be a log or smth |
kb9vqf | Hmm...valgrind is not detecting the leak with my original kdesktop binary |
kb9vqf | Which is good :) |
kb9vqf | s/leak/corruption/g |
aalecs | well, on what glibc ? |
kb9vqf | 2.26 |
kb9vqf | I'm starting the VM now |
kb9vqf | the VM has the recompiled kdesktop binary |
kb9vqf | And it is also 2.26 |
aalecs | you have MALLOC_CHECK_=1 now ? |
kb9vqf | No |
kb9vqf | I'm trying to trace the actual problem |
aalecs | ah |
kb9vqf | Just talking out loud I guess :) |
aalecs | ah np |
aalecs | is good to talk |
aalecs | sharing etc :D |
kb9vqf | :) |
aalecs | maybe i`ll get to build my live image of kde 3, i have only a xfce one |
kb9vqf | Anyway I have to wait for kdebase to compile in the VM now |
kb9vqf | That would be a good idea |
kb9vqf | Users love LiveCDs |
kb9vqf | Allows them to try a new desktop out with very little effort |
aalecs | well, when it will be solved i`ll build and drop you a link, so you can put it to users |
*kb9vqf has joined #trinity-desktop | |
<mode channel="#trinity-desktop" nick="ChanServ" time="2011-04-06T17:04:18Z">+o kb9vqf </mode> | |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | There is actually a Community Downloads section on the Wiki |
kb9vqf | You can put it there |
aalecs | it will be a live iso with install capacity :D |
aalecs | like user will be able to format and partition and install to disck |
aalecs | disk* |
aalecs | kb9vqf: |
aalecs | https://attachments.bugzilla.altlinux.org/attachment.cgi?id=4867 |
aalecs | if export MALLOC_CHECK_=3 it prints the errors to the log |
kb9vqf | right |
kb9vqf | it should |
kb9vqf | That did not tell me anything new though :) |
aalecs | eh, i did not know |
kb9vqf | it's ok |
kb9vqf | more information is a good thing :) |
kb9vqf | Just don't set MALLOC_CHECK_ to 0 |
kb9vqf | that would disable all memory corruption checking and pose a massive security risk |
eugenesan | I am probably missing something, line:"sData = TQTextCodec::codecForLocale()->toUnicode(pToken->getData());" triggers error: "no matching function for call to ‘QTextCodec::toUnicode(const QString&)’" |
aalecs | kb9vqf: malloc_check, what is it's default value ? |
kb9vqf | aalecs: Unset |
kb9vqf | but 1 gives the default behaviour with the improved memory checking |
kb9vqf | eugenesan: getData probably does not return a TQString, but returns a QString |
kb9vqf | sData = TQTextCodec::codecForLocale()->toUnicode(TQString(pToken->getData())); will work around it |
aalecs | i have to learn qt for a app i want to build |
kb9vqf | eugenesan: You are compiling against qt3, right? |
aalecs | kb9vqf: offtopic: using a qt gui designer i can add the code too ? |
kb9vqf | code for what? |
eugenesan | @kb9vqf: I am starting to think I am not. I am using 2 days old snapshot from your PPA on quick (before being renamed to Tqt-qt4) |
aalecs | code for the app |
aalecs | i want to build an app to update products on a store |
aalecs | and i have as a option gtk and qt |
aalecs | mysql stuff mostly, and some file upload, delete ftp |
kb9vqf | And you will be compiling against Trinity? |
aalecs | trinity or qt4 |
aalecs | serghei told me to use qt4 |
kb9vqf | eugenesan: don't use TQt for Qt4 at this point! |
kb9vqf | unless you want a lot of build issues :) |
kb9vqf | It is more strict than TQt for Qt3 |
kb9vqf | aalecs: It's up to you I guess |
kb9vqf | if you are writing from scratch with no system integration needed then you can use Qt4 no problem |
kb9vqf | as long as you don't need advanced desktop type stuff |
kb9vqf | (which it sounds like you do not) |
eugenesan | @kb9vqf: I probably have to define QT3_SUPPORT... |
kb9vqf | NO |
kb9vqf | we don't need it |
aalecs | kb9vqf: sql and ftp, some images functions like rotate and resize |
aalecs | basic |
kb9vqf | right |
kb9vqf | qt4 is fine |
kb9vqf | eugenesan: Get it compiling/working with TQt for Qt3 |
kb9vqf | then you can try to build it under Qt4 |
kb9vqf | The problem is that we have very little documentation for TQt for Qt4 |
kb9vqf | so it can be frustrating to work with ATM unless you know Qt ver, very well |
kb9vqf | It is still under heavy development :) |
eugenesan | @kb9vqf: Which snapshot sould I use? I prefer source-package for Ubuntu/Debian |
kb9vqf | hang on |
kb9vqf | eugenesan: https://quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/~trinity/+archive/trinity-nightly-builds/+files/libtqtinterface_3.5.13-0ubuntu7+r1226996+pr148.dsc |
kb9vqf | Or rather https://quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/~trinity/+archive/trinity-nightly-builds/+sourcepub/2024/+listing-archive-extra |
kb9vqf | That is for Qt3 |
kb9vqf | and is what you should be using |
eugenesan | Currently using: 3.5.13-0ubuntu7+r1226996+pr131 |
kb9vqf | well that is OK as well |
kb9vqf | my guess is that your code itself may be broken |
kb9vqf | that is, the kscope code |
eugenesan | yes |
kb9vqf | verify that QTextCodec actually has a toUnicode member |
kb9vqf | http://www.trinitydesktop.org/docs |
kb9vqf | Use the Qt3 search box :) |
eugenesan | It does |
eugenesan | Strange, if I chnage toUnicode to something else it failes with different error. And wrapping with TQString doesn't help |
kb9vqf | hmmm |
kb9vqf | right, wrapping with TQString would only help with Qt4 |
kb9vqf | You can tell what I've been working with lately ;-) |
kb9vqf | Sorry, I don't know what to tell you other than it is not a TQt problem |
kb9vqf | it is a problem in kscope and would occur under straight Qt3 as well |
eugenesan | It's working with latest your latest kde3 snapshots on Ubuntu Lucid PPA |
kb9vqf | did you use the automated conversion tools? |
kb9vqf | They may have messed something up |
eugenesan | Yes, but error was before also. |
kb9vqf | hmmm |
kb9vqf | that still indicates a problem in the kscope code |
kb9vqf | did you make sure that there are no errors before the mysterious one? |
kb9vqf | or rather, can you pastebin the full build log? |
eugenesan | I don't see any, ony mentioned error twice in single file. |
kb9vqf | well, all I can say is verify all data types |
kb9vqf | you'll find the problem eventually :) |
kb9vqf | it will probably be something simple |
eugenesan | This might be a compiler issue, I am building on Natty with 4.5.2 |
eugenesan | Will dig and update you in case I found something interesting :-) |
kb9vqf | ok, sounds good |
kb9vqf | thanks :) |

aalecs | using tde 3.5.13 like |
aalecs | :D |
kb9vqf | aalecs: So it works 100% now? :) |
kb9vqf | If so, could you mark the bug report as resolved/fixed? |
aalecs | ok |
aalecs | would be better to apply the rest of the patches too ? |
aalecs | i applied only the last one |
aalecs | the one you linked me |
aalecs | now i just want my gtk apps running under kde to look good, with their gtk icons or with icons chosen by me, not the hicolor ones |
kb9vqf | aalecs: If you apply the rest of the patches you will merely end up with a copy of SVN HEAD |
kb9vqf | you probably don't want to do that :) |
kb9vqf | as far as the GTK apps go, look for the qt-gtk-* package in QuickBuild |
kb9vqf | that's what you would need |
aalecs | yeah, i know :D |
aalecs | i`m a former kde user |
*kb9vqf does not remember the exact name offhand | |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | great! |
aalecs | but the folks at alt did not package that |
aalecs | so i have to do it |
kb9vqf | ah |
aalecs | but there's no problem |
kb9vqf | :) |
aalecs | anyway, works ak all |
kb9vqf | glad to hear it |
aalecs | minus the fact that the default option of konqueror is open images in self, not in their app |
kb9vqf | ah, yes |
aalecs | (that was always smth to nag me) |
kb9vqf | well, how about bringing it up in the meeting? |
kb9vqf | meetings are a good place to discuss default settings |
aalecs | okay :) |
aalecs | well, i will. plus i`ll try building that live iso soon |
aalecs | but first i want to integrate baghira |
kb9vqf | sure |
aalecs | i have to port it from qt to tqt |
aalecs | hope i`ll manage :D |
kb9vqf | :) |
kb9vqf | Ask any questions here... |
kb9vqf | or on the ML |
aalecs | oke |
aalecs | http://baghira.sourceforge.net/pix/ssp/shot5.jpg |
kb9vqf | :) |
kb9vqf | I can only imagine what an Apple fanboi would say |
aalecs | ah. when will we get rid of hal and pass on to udev ? |
kb9vqf | serghei was working on that but I think it stalled due to the higher CMake priority |
kb9vqf | I wrote up the specs for the requisite library a while back now |
kb9vqf | so we just need someone to implement it |
aalecs | well, stable branch of alt is anyway on hal still , so i will be able to manage a live build workable with media management too |
kb9vqf | good |
kb9vqf | sorry for the slow progress in those areas |
aalecs | will be fun to have a build like this, like our gnome "brothers" |
aalecs | you don't have to appologize |
aalecs | we're a hand of people interested and debugging and trying, and just 2 developers.. |
kb9vqf | I know, I just wish we could make faster progress |
aalecs | you and serghei |
aalecs | anyway, tde is doing good, if we think that kde 3 was killed a lot while ago, and what you did in so little time |
kb9vqf | :) |
aalecs | we have a working environment, slim and cool |
kb9vqf | I use it daily on many machines |
kb9vqf | Very few problems |
kb9vqf | Actually, most of the problem I have are from an old KDE 3.5.10 boatanchor I never got around to updating :-P |
aalecs | oh |
aalecs | :D |
aalecs | ah, could we get rid off the kickof style in panel ? |
kb9vqf | ? |
aalecs | its default looks ugly anyway |
kb9vqf | oh, that |
kb9vqf | well, it's a configuration option |
kb9vqf | don't like it, don't use it |
aalecs | aham, ok :D |
aalecs | i remember kde 3.5.10 did not have that |
kb9vqf | Right |
aalecs | that was my point |
kb9vqf | kickoff was a popular request feature |
kb9vqf | so it is in there and can be enabled, but only if you want it |
aalecs | ah |
aalecs | well, if it`s a feature, ok :D |
kb9vqf | I would beg to differ on that, but hey, I like KMenu :D |
*kb9vqf thinks Kickoff belongs on Windows Vista | |
aalecs | CORRECTLY :D |
aalecs | i like standard kde menu, not kickoff |
kb9vqf | well, opensuse used kickoff, so I guess there is a percentage of KDE 3 users that got used to it :-/ |
kb9vqf | no sense alienating them over one simple "feature" |
aalecs | ah yes |
aalecs | correctly |
kb9vqf | anyway, I need to get back to work |
kb9vqf | thanks for testing :) |
aalecs | same here |
aalecs | no problem, will be in touch around |
aalecs | good luck with what you were doing |

andycc | I have a small question about TDE |
andycc | Is there any kind of GUI to modify startup applications? I know KDE3 had something like this, but I can't seem to find it in TDE. |

andycc | Hello, I need some help with TDE: is there any kind of GUI to modify startup applications? I know KDE3 had something like this, but I can't seem to find it in TDE. |
Xu_R | if KDE3 had it |
Xu_R | then TDE would also |
Xu_R | we didn't leave anything out. |
andycc | I pretty much looked everywhere and didn't find it. |
andycc | Using TDE 3.5.12 on Maverick, and kcmshell seems to be lacking some things. |
andycc | (I did install pretty much every kde3 metapackage I could find) |
Xu_R | andycc: that's not possible, I'm looking at it my kcontrol right now and I see pretty much everything, including the startup applications |
andycc | Xu_R: I searched in both kcmshell and the main menu for "startup"; no relevant hits. |
andycc | And I did everything as the installation page said. Added repos, installed kubuntu-*-kde3, plus the metapackages. ... |
andycc | (by the way, kde-kde3 is broken...) |
andycc | Xu_R: what distro are you running TDE on? |

Pual | Hello people |
Pual | Please, don't stop the project |
Pual | cdahmedeh: don't stop the project |
cdahmedeh | what are you talking about ? |
Pual | trinity desktop evironment |
cdahmedeh | i'm not a developer |
Pual | are you user? |
cdahmedeh | occasional user |
Pual | good. what is your flavor? |
cdahmedeh | well i use it on my laptop with arch |
cdahmedeh | with xfce |
cdahmedeh | like sometimes i use kde3 and other times xfce |
Pual | arch is good but I'm lazy |
cdahmedeh | yeah it's requires lots of work |
cdahmedeh | it's not as bad as gentoo though |
cdahmedeh | i have gentoo on my desktop |
cdahmedeh | as a test machine |
Pual | i am using ubuntu and i love xfce and gnome 2 and kde 3 |
Pual | cdahmedeh: |
cdahmedeh | those desktop enviroments are great |
Pual | gnome 3 is sux and kde 4 is rox |
Pual | :( |
cdahmedeh | well gnome 3 is highly disappointing |
cdahmedeh | kde 4 has improved greatly |
cdahmedeh | it's hard to tell what's going to happen to gnome 3 at this point though |
Pual | I'm afraid of being invaded using trinity |
cdahmedeh | what do you mean ? |
Pual | trinity is made by hackers |
Pual | i have fear but i need this |
cdahmedeh | oh don't worry |
Pual | i have only 1Gigabyte of ram |
cdahmedeh | no one is going to invade you |
Pual | my CPU is atom |
cdahmedeh | trinity is a good choice if you have limited ressources |
Pual | i am poor and i cant pay for project |
cdahmedeh | no one is forcing you to |
cdahmedeh | just enjoy using it |
cdahmedeh | and spread the word |
cdahmedeh | that's a great way of support without paying money |
cdahmedeh | submitting bug reports is also a good idea |
Pual | I cant report bugs only |
Pual | Linux is better than windows |
cdahmedeh | in many cases it is |
Pual | but linux is weak in video studio |
Pual | :( |
Pual | i have windows xp in dual boot |
cdahmedeh | for video editing you mean ? |
cdahmedeh | what kind of software do you use ? |
Pual | i want a good DVD editor like VSO |
Pual | do you know? |
cdahmedeh | what does VSO do ? |
Pual | ConvertXtoDVD |
Pual | do you know? |
Pual | Richard Stallman is a good person |
cdahmedeh | no, i'm not very familiar with that software unfortunately |
Pual | :') |
cdahmedeh | check alternativeto.org |
cdahmedeh | it might help |
Pual | ok |
Pual | Are you have fear using Linux? |
Pual | Why canonical is not made Tribuntu version? |
Pual | Kde version have little bugs but is rox a lot |
cdahmedeh | no i don't have any fear of using linux |
Pual | Linux is made by hackers and crackers |
cdahmedeh | linux is made by hackers and programmers |
cdahmedeh | hackers are good people |
cdahmedeh | their are people who thinker with software and hardware for the good of humanity |
Pual | Man i hate adobe |
Pual | adobe dont port photoshop for linux |
Pual | Gimp is good but gimp is weak |
cdahmedeh | there are great alternatives to photoshop |
cdahmedeh | there are many plugins for gimp |
cdahmedeh | i used to be a photoshop user many years ago |
cdahmedeh | when i switched over to gimp |
cdahmedeh | it was hard at first, but eventually you'll get used to it |
cdahmedeh | you should be able to do most of the tasks that you did with photoshop |
Pual | yeah |
Pual | hey man are you used gnu/hurd? |
cdahmedeh | i've heard of it, but i've never used it |
Pual | hurd is stable now hehehe |
cdahmedeh | i've heart that it's come a long way, but it doesn't seem ready for any serious productivity work |
cdahmedeh | i might be wrong |
cdahmedeh | i know debian experimental has support for the hurd kernel |
Pual | Richard Stallman is crazy. He is very poor |
cdahmedeh | not everyone cares about money |
Pual | But money buys hardware |
Pual | no hardware, no linux |
cdahmedeh | yes i know, but you don't need fancy hardware to do everything |
cdahmedeh | i recently built a desktop for 300$, that has a 1gb gpu and dual core intel cpu |
cdahmedeh | and 2gb of ram |
cdahmedeh | it's decent |
Pual | yes |
cdahmedeh | for basic desktop work and light gaming |
Pual | i will buy more 3gb of ram |
cdahmedeh | linux runs well even on weak hardware, so you don't need to worry about having fancy hardware |
Pual | Linux still works bad on new hardware. |
cdahmedeh | you have to research your choice before you make any new purchases |
Pual | companies do not want drivers. |
cdahmedeh | many companies don't develop drivers for linux |
cdahmedeh | because it's not economically viable for them |
cdahmedeh | or because they believe that the linux market share is insignificant |
Pual | yes |
Pual | reverse enginering |
cdahmedeh | sometimes that can work for simple hardware |
cdahmedeh | but for more complicated hardware, like wireless cards, and especially GPUs, it can be very challenging |
cdahmedeh | it is not the case |
Pual | yes |
Pual | in my contry the people hates linux |
cdahmedeh | what country are you in ? |
Pual | Brazil |
cdahmedeh | why do people hate it ? |
Pual | why linux not have windows proprietary programs and |
Pual | the linux amsn, emesene, pidgin |
*MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | samelian? |
cdahmedeh | you have to keep in mind for some people compatibility with windows is very important |
cdahmedeh | so linux isn't a choice for them |
cdahmedeh | and others are just not open minded to trying different software |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: hey dude you around? i've been having this problem for a while, can't seem to build |
MutantTurkey | cdahmedeh: what are we talking about? |
Pual | why turkey people makes worms for windows? |
cdahmedeh | i'm talking to Pual, he says that people in brazil do not like linux |
MutantTurkey | if you got a problem with turkeys, you can mess with me. |
cdahmedeh | hey MutantTurkey ! |
cdahmedeh | i remember you from somewhere |
MutantTurkey | I though brazil loves linux? |
MutantTurkey | cdahmedeh: #archlinux? |
cdahmedeh | possibly |
MutantTurkey | hmmm, that or #ubuntu-us-pa |
MutantTurkey | i troll around the internet a fair bit. |
cdahmedeh | most likely #archlinux |
Pual | the brasilian people uses msn protocol |
MutantTurkey | definitely |
MutantTurkey | Pual: I've not used msn alot, mostly just jabber |
cdahmedeh | yes the famous msn protocol, i have to use it daily |
cdahmedeh | it seems to work fine in pidgin |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: yo buddy whens the next meeting? |
MutantTurkey | cdahmedeh: i love and hate pidgin it's so bloated but so great |
cdahmedeh | yes it's a love hate relationship |
Pual | brazilian people uses voice in msn messenger |
cdahmedeh | yeah i don't know anything on linux that supports that |
Pual | amsn, pidgin and emesene not support |
MutantTurkey | cdahmedeh: agreed. i was working on a libpurple frontend a while ago |
Pual | why microsoft monopolyze the program |
cdahmedeh | it's microsoft |
cdahmedeh | it's all about monopoly |
Pual | I am a microsoft slave |
MutantTurkey | lol |
MutantTurkey | microsoft bah |
MutantTurkey | cdahmedeh: hmmmm, yes now i am thinking about it i do recognize you |
cdahmedeh | yay! i'm too lazy too look at my logs |
cdahmedeh | irc logs are a big hassle to look through |
MutantTurkey | logs logs logs yes agreed |
Pual | People i will go |
Pual | bye |
MutantTurkey | goodbye Pual |
MutantTurkey | damnit |
cdahmedeh | lol he's fast |
MutantTurkey | they always quit before i can say it. |
cdahmedeh | anyways, that was interesting conversation |
cdahmedeh | Pual feared linux because it was made by hackers and crackers or something |
MutantTurkey | I probably should be going actually, I've got class in the morning |
cdahmedeh | i have an exam tomorrow ! |
MutantTurkey | lol what trollish ideas |
MutantTurkey | me too D: |
cdahmedeh | i have some |
MutantTurkey | this week is the worst, and i just got a new job |
MutantTurkey | i am dying |
cdahmedeh | engineering ethics exam |
cdahmedeh | oh same, i have three exams in a row |
MutantTurkey | oh thats awful |
MutantTurkey | i only have two classes tomorrow, but this week is alot of work |
MutantTurkey | anyway, cdahmedeh see you around yes? good. |
cdahmedeh | and congrats on the new job |
cdahmedeh | and see you later aswell |
MutantTurkey | thank you |
MutantTurkey | proud cashier at the 7/11! :p |

MutantTurkey | so nice. i love th sev |
*MutantTurkey double backflips then high fives cdahmedeh | |

kb9vqf | oh, ok |
kb9vqf | yes |
kb9vqf | that is what I noticed as well |

Qu4Z | Question to the channel: Is there a trinity overlay for Gentoo? |
Qu4Z | I think there was some discussion of using #kde-sunset a while back? |
Qu4Z | I mean kde-sunset. It's not a channel <_< |
kb9vqf | I wouldn't know for sure, but I think there is NOT an overlay at this time due to our CMake conversion still being in progress |
kb9vqf | samelian might know :) |
Qu4Z | Apparently he left instead. :P |
Qu4Z | If there isn't, I might look into making one for 3.5.12 |
Qu4Z | Why would an overlay block on CMake conversion? Or is it just a manpower thing? |

kb9vqf | Qu4Z: Because Automake broke compilation with their 2.64 version |
kb9vqf | They know about it but they claim it's our problem to fix it in our Automake files |
kb9vqf | With no guarantee that they won't do the same thing again, we decided to switch to CMake instead |
kb9vqf | also, samelian is very busy right now :) |
kb9vqf | I would suggest posting a question to the mailing lists |

*adamkex has joined #trinity-desktop | |
adamkex | can i run non-kde qt4 programs in trinity? such as clementine or spotify? |
adamkex | and i mean qt4, and not tqt-qt4 (?) sorry i was reading some irc logs and i didn't understand everything. i am eager to try it out whenever someone makes a portage overlay for it |
Qu4Z | adamkex: I'm waiting on a portage overlay as well |
Qu4Z | And I see no reason why you couldn't run non-kde qt4 programs. They just won't be able to make user of Trinity's niceness. |
Qu4Z | Also, high five for clementine |
*cdahmedeh has joined #trinity-desktop | |
*cdahmede- has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Qu4Z | Are there plans to move konqueror to using webkit for web rendering? |
Qu4Z | Also, I'm enjoying the Community Supported RFE idea. |
*cdahmedeh has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Qu4Z | Oh, never mind. Found it as a 3.5.15 or later goal on the webs |
adamkex | Qu4Z: hehe, my qt4 programs are not generally using the default qt looks, they have their own buttons and such, not sure if clemtine uses the default though. i am waiting for spotify support in clementine, the official spotify client (coinsidentally also uses qt) does not support playing my own music files, only the ones on their server |

Xu_R | oops. |
affect | lol |
Xu_R | yea... I'm hosting a meeting on another channel. |
Xu_R | btw, make sure everyone knows that there will be a meeting for Trinity Tuesday/Wednesday! |
affect | can't do, I'm currently depressed because of gnome being too irrational, inconsistent and non-straightforward compared with kde3 |
Xu_R | lol XD |
Xu_R | well, i'm off to some dinner (PASTAAA) brb :P |
kb9vqf | samelian: Out of curiosity when do you think you might have a preliminary set of CMake files for kdesdk? |
samelian | kb9vqf: not sure, right now I'm busy with my personal things |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | have you committed what you have to SVN already? |
kb9vqf | I may help out if I have time |
samelian | nope, is not usable yet |
samelian | I will commit it when cervisia will be done |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | thanks :) |
samelian | sorry for my long silence :) |
samelian | I will resume cmake work after 1-2 weeks, I hope |
kb9vqf | it's OK |
kb9vqf | take your time |
kb9vqf | I think you probably have the most under-appreciated job here to be honest :) |
samelian | hehe |
kb9vqf | also in case you are interested I added the Qt4 porting goals to the next meeting Etherpad |
kb9vqf | *TQt4 |
samelian | aha, nice |
kb9vqf | I will try to make it to this next meeting |
kb9vqf | if at all possible |
samelian | when will be next meeting? |
Xu_R | I have still yet to get any indication from people |
Xu_R | only people responded to doodle is Piki and MutantTurkey |
samelian | I will try to be present anyway |
Xu_R | I made the times European friendly (I don't want you guys sleeping at 4 AM again) |
kb9vqf | well, your original times of 2PM EST on the 19 or 20th would work for me |
kb9vqf | most likely, anyway |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: and I am aiming for those times |

kb9vqf | samelian: Do you have a minute to look at an Amarok CMake problem? |
kb9vqf | https://quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/~trinity/+archive/trinity-nightly-builds/+build/3887 |
samelian | kb9vqf: ok |
kb9vqf | thanks :) |
samelian | kb9vqf: done |
kb9vqf | ok, thanks |
samelian | welcome |
samelian | kb9vqf: but there is a problem with TQGLWidget |
kb9vqf | what kind of problem? |

samelian | maybe because my tqt is old, i'm not sure |
kb9vqf | hmmm |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | I'll look into it |
samelian | ok |
kb9vqf | i figured I'd start building some apps while I wait for kdesdk |
kb9vqf | can you add the CMake enabled apps to the CMake status Etherpad? |
kb9vqf | so I know which ones to build? |
samelian | sure |
kb9vqf | thanks |
samelian | kb9vqf: done |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | thanks |
kb9vqf | you forgot amarok |
kb9vqf | or is it not yet ready? |
kb9vqf | :) |
samelian | hehe, I added it too |
kb9vqf | i saw that |
kb9vqf | etherpad is pretty cool for real time stuff :) |

Xu_R | kb9vqf: probably :-\ |
kb9vqf | any ideas for permanently banning Vile/Rejin? |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: hostmask ban? he always accesses through webchat... |
kb9vqf | do you have his hostmask? |
*kb9vqf does not unfortunately | |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: !bb3ab73e@gateway/web/freenode/ip.187.58.183.62 |
kb9vqf | ok |
*kb9vqf has not done this before...here goes.... | |

Xu_R | and now I will test... |
*Xu_R|Webchat has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | well I banned his IP |
Xu_R|Webchat | looks like it doesn't ban the rest of webchat :P |
kb9vqf | that's good :) |
Xu_R | :D |
kb9vqf | of course if he's on DHCP then it will change, but if he shows back up then just poke me with the new IP |
Xu_R | sure... |
kb9vqf | I may end up blocking his DHCP block of addresses |
Xu_R | lol... |
*kb9vqf can't stand trools | |
kb9vqf | *trolls rather |
Xu_R | hehehe :P |
Baho | samlian: kdepim still breaks-->kdepim/kmail/kmmainwidget.cpp:610:55: error: invalid conversion from 'QObject*' to 'KListView*' |
kb9vqf | Baho: That might actually be me |
kb9vqf | let me look at the affected code |
Baho | OK |
kb9vqf | Baho: Fixed in SVN revision 1228345. |
Baho | OK, Thanks all.... I will try again |
kb9vqf | np :) |
Baho | OK kdepim now builds, anyone up for amarok error? |
kb9vqf | working on amarok now, what's the error? |
Baho | undefined reference to `QGLWidget::glDraw()' |
kb9vqf | hmm |
kb9vqf | haven't seen that one before |
kb9vqf | I have a large commit that will go in later on today |
kb9vqf | why don't you try it then |
kb9vqf | in case it got fixed while I was working on other stuff |
Baho | OK I wait... I have to get lunch any way |
kb9vqf | ok |
Baho | Where is the best place to get info on the cmake port progress? |
Xu_R | Baho: etherpad |
Baho | OK Thanks |
kb9vqf | see the topic for the link to the CMake port progress etherpad :) |
kb9vqf | samelian: Any chance of getting CMake support for the Amarok documentation? |
samelian | kb9vqf: I think yes, should be pretty simple actually |
kb9vqf | ok, sounds good :) |

K`zan | geda - gschem segfaulting wouldn't have anything to do with Trinity, would it ? |
kb9vqf | it might |
kb9vqf | if the segfault is on open/save |
K`zan | Yes it is, both. |
K`zan | Lemme try switching UIs and see if it still does it. |
*K`zan has joined #trinity-desktop | |
K`zan | :-) Trinity is the only one I have on this box, installing something else, bbiab. |
*K`zan has joined #trinity-desktop | |
K`zan | kb9vqf: de wv9k :-) gschem works normally under xfce, loads and saves with no error. What can I do to help? |
kb9vqf | K`zan: Nice to see another ham :) You can deactivate the Trinity file selection dialogs |
kb9vqf | removing gtk-qt-engine-kde3 should do the trick |
kb9vqf | sorry, wrong package |
kb9vqf | kgtk-qt3-kde3 is what you would want to remove |
kb9vqf | gtk-qt-engine-kde3 just handles the overall GTK app look&feel |
kb9vqf | alternatively you can remove a single file |
kb9vqf | in fact I think there is an issue with removing the kgtk-qt3-kde3 package, some sort of dependency problem |
kb9vqf | if that is true, then you can remove the /opt/kde3/share/kgtk/preload file and it will also deactivate the offending deature |
kb9vqf | *feature |
K`zan | Thanks, catching up... |
K`zan | OK, lemme go back into trinity and give that a go. |
K`zan | brb |
*K`zan has joined #trinity-desktop | |
K`zan | Hummm, seem to have two packages rather similar: |
K`zan | kubuntu-kgtk-kde3 |
K`zan | and |
kb9vqf | It would probably be easiest to just delete /opt/kde3/share/kgtk/preload and log out/log in |
K`zan | kgtk-qt3-kde3 <-- installed, |
kb9vqf | there are some technical reasons why I can't rebuild the packages to fix the dependency issue unfortunately |
kb9vqf | needless to say the dependency problems will be fixed in the next release :) |
K`zan | No problem, just if I can assist in any way I would like to do so :-). |
kb9vqf | what can you do? |
K`zan | -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 31 2010-09-09 13:25 /opt/kde3/share/kgtk/preload |
K`zan | I have no idea :-/. |
kb9vqf | yes, that's it |
kb9vqf | just remove it |
K`zan | Gone! |
kb9vqf | Now log out / log in |
K`zan | rr, brb. |
kb9vqf | that should resolve the crashing problem |
*K`zan has joined #trinity-desktop | |
K`zan | That took care of the problem! Tnx MUCH! |
K`zan | Need to look at your site and see if I fit into any "help wanted" slots, you are doing a GREAT service keeping Trinity going. |
K`zan | One last silly question, is it possible to increase the number of desktops beyond 20? |
kb9vqf | No idea |
kb9vqf | I would personally run into taskbar pager width problems well before 20 :) |
K`zan | Multiple rows ;-). |
kb9vqf | K`zan: I do want someone to help with Debian packagin |
kb9vqf | *packaging |
kb9vqf | Not sure if you have any experience but I thought I'd ask... :) |
K`zan | Not that I need them, I just wondered if the 20 limit was there for a reason. |
kb9vqf | It might be a free desktop specification, I'm honestly not sure |
K`zan | I'm on ubuntu 10.10, but I do have a deb5 install |
kb9vqf | Debian/Ubuntu are almost identical on the packaging end |
K`zan | No I don't but I can learn. Time might be an issue, don't know, but willing to try. |
kb9vqf | Well, you can start by looking through some of the spec files on http://svn.trinitydesktop.org |
K`zan | Desktops >20 not important, just wondered. |
kb9vqf | My initial guess is that someone just set the maximum number for the slider at 20 |
kb9vqf | it can probably be overridden in the configuration file |
K`zan | I know one person who has 29, although I can't imagine using that many, I have 8 and that is obscene :). |
Qu4Z | kb9vqf: Is there anything that can't be overridden in the config? :P |
kb9vqf | Probably not :-P |
K`zan | LOL, probably not :) |
Qu4Z | I barely use 4, but then I learned on Windows, so it's taken a while to aquire "good linux habits" |
K`zan | Okdokee, got the link, got it bookmarked. Will look it over and see what I can find about package building too. |
*kb9vqf proudly announces that TQt4 strikes again, it just recreated Clementine in about 1 day of time spent porting Amarok to TQt :)) | |
kb9vqf | sure |
Qu4Z | Does it work on Windows? :P |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: seriously? :D |
kb9vqf | No |
K`zan | :-) I used to run 20, but contrary to popular belief I do occasonally close things I am not planning on using for a few days :). |
Qu4Z | (stuck on Win7 at work :/) |
Qu4Z | kb9vqf: Then it's missing Clementine's most important feature |
Qu4Z | :P |
kb9vqf | ok |
K`zan | There is someing called multi-desk for wincrap, IIRC it works on 7 too.. |
kb9vqf | well, that's different w.r.t. Clementine |
Qu4Z | I don't use Clem on Windows, 'cause there's Amarok 1.4... |
kb9vqf | right |
kb9vqf | my focus is only on Unix-ish systems |
Qu4Z | Although at some point Clem may overtake Amarok 1.4 in features, etc |
kb9vqf | unless we backport them.... |
Qu4Z | kb9vqf: I don't blame you at all, and I fully agree with your focus |
Xu_R | Clementine - Mandriva is using it for default now too :P |
kb9vqf | But Clementine is essentially a Qt4 port of Amarok 1.4 IIRC |
kb9vqf | that is what I did in one day |
Qu4Z | I don't think there's a point trying to get any of this awesome stuff working. My point was just that there's more to Clementine that just aQt4 version of Amarok 1.4 |
Qu4Z | Yeah. TQt seems to be working really well :) |
kb9vqf | so far, so good |
kb9vqf | it has problems still, but that is to be expected |
Xu_R | hmm... how many groups do you think we can get on with TQT? |
Xu_R | :P |
Xu_R | (the ones that hate kde bloatware but LOVE Qt are the easiest to attract) |
Xu_R | (well, kde4 bloatware) |
kb9vqf | K`zan: Fogot to mention that you can use the QuickBuild system to build the packages, so you don't need super powerful hardware |
Qu4Z | I have to admit I was (and still am) a bit worried that trying to abstract over the two APIs will either lead to a crappy API, or have trouble adapting to future API changes |
kb9vqf | That is definitely a concern |
Qu4Z | KDE3 is probably a bit bloaty for some projects |
Qu4Z | But one person's bloat is another person's amazing features :P |
kb9vqf | TQt basically holds to the Qt3 API, but extends it where practical |
Qu4Z | Ah. play |
Qu4Z | *Ah, okay |
kb9vqf | instead of just wholesale replacing classes with different classes that really do the same thing |
kb9vqf | a.k.a. Qt4 |
Qu4Z | I have to wonder why they changed the API for Qt4. I'm assuming they thought they'd get some net win out of the new API, no? |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: on a scale from one to ten, with ten = done, how far are you? |
kb9vqf | Qt4 changed the class system to appeal to mobile phone devs |
Qu4Z | Oh, okay. |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: With TQt itself: 5 |
kb9vqf | or 6 |
Qu4Z | That seems a bit pointless |
Xu_R | very nice :D |
kb9vqf | It also made it easier to maintiain internally from what I can tell |
Xu_R | Qu4Z: Sounds MeeGo much to me |
Qu4Z | Yeah |
kb9vqf | Nokia wanted to focus on whiz-bang graphics |
Xu_R | oh, yea. now it really sounds like Meego. |
kb9vqf | so they dumbed down/removed a lot of other stuff |
Qu4Z | kb9vqf: See, I'm thinking they may have wanted more uniformity of API, or some other features we're missing out on by wrapping it |
kb9vqf | It's possible |
kb9vqf | but what drove that was the fact that the graphics API was changing |
Qu4Z | Right, makes sense |
kb9vqf | here's my thought: Yes, we may be "missing out" on a simplified API |
kb9vqf | BUT |
Qu4Z | Well, there's no reason we can't slowly tidy up TQt's external API if it becomes ugly. But incrementally, so we don't break everything majorly |
kb9vqf | how complex would the Trinity code itself then have to be to add back in the missing feature? |
Qu4Z | Yeah, that's true. |
kb9vqf | answer: Very complex and very muddy |
*kb9vqf knows from experience | |
Qu4Z | I assumed a simplified API wouldn't be less featureful, just more consistent, etc |
kb9vqf | right |
kb9vqf | and then Trinity has to grow in size in response |
Qu4Z | Why? |
Qu4Z | But yeah. TQt seems like it's working out really well despite my initial misgivings, so good choice :) |
kb9vqf | oh, sorry, misread your post |
kb9vqf | thought you said would, not wouldn't :) |
Qu4Z | Oh, right :) |
kb9vqf | the problem with "simplified" is that it is the opposite of "complex" |
kb9vqf | meaning something has to go |
Qu4Z | Yeah. I don't actually know. I have to admit I haven't played with Qt4 much, and have little idea of the KDE/Trinity internals |
kb9vqf | think CISC versus RISC |
kb9vqf | With CISC you have fewer high level commands to do something |
kb9vqf | that is, fewer assembler program lines |
kb9vqf | but the price is that the instruction set (API) is more complex and kind of ugly |
Qu4Z | Yeah |
kb9vqf | I think of it this way: if you want to do something complex part of the code will be messy no matter what you do |
kb9vqf | so where do you want the mess? |
kb9vqf | I think it should be in a lower level library that can be called upon, instead of having problems with every new app you want to write |
kb9vqf | Nokia just thinks you should remove the mess by removing features |
Qu4Z | Makes sense |
K`zan | If you gotta use wincrap, this makes it somewhat less painful: http://wrlabs.shacknet.nu/~vw/Trinity-tmp/ |
kb9vqf | :) |
kb9vqf | To Nokia's credit, they have been adding some API calls back in with the latest versions (4.7, 4.8) |
K`zan | Used it for years and I *think* I installed it on 7 or maybe vista, still works IIRC... |
Qu4Z | K`zan: Thanks :) |
K`zan | NP, let me know if all goes well, I know it works on XP. |
*K`zan off to see what I can learn about packaging... | |
Qu4Z | kb9vqf: Yeah, well as long as TQt doesn't end up being fugly on the outside 'cause it has to wrap both Qt3 and Qt4 it should be fine :) |
kb9vqf | hehe |
kb9vqf | trying not to make it ugly... :) |
kb9vqf | There is actually one area where it has already made the Trinity code cleaner |
kb9vqf | specifically, rather than static_cast<QObject*>(xxy) you can now just do TQT_TQOBJECT(xxy) |
kb9vqf | it's easier to look at |
kb9vqf | same with QWidget, etc. |
Qu4Z | K`zan: Seems to work so far. I'll tell you if I have troubles :) |
K`zan | Wonderful! |
Qu4Z | There are a couple of GUI changes I'd make, though <_< |
K`zan | I have had that for ages, no idea where it came from now. |
Qu4Z | Doesn't seem to be an easy way of moving windows between desktops in single icon mode |
kb9vqf | there are a few changes I would make to Windows in general ;-) |
Qu4Z | More than a few orz |
kb9vqf | Did I say few? Maybe more like a million little changes ;-) |
kb9vqf | With the latest versions needing even more help |
K`zan | deb packaging directories seem to be empty, looking at the ubuntu stuff to see if I can make sense of it... |
kb9vqf | hang on |
kb9vqf | yes, Debian is empty |
kb9vqf | you want ubuntu/maverick/ |
Qu4Z | lol, the site mentioned on the settings page of that program doesn't seem to have been updated in almost eleven years :P |
K`zan | I always wipe after using wincrap :-). |
kb9vqf | hehe |
K`zan | THat is where I am perusing ATM. |
Qu4Z | http://techsuperior.com/images/at_work_icon.gif <-- and it uses this icon |
Qu4Z | It's like a flashback to the 90s |
kb9vqf | !seen samelian |
tbottu | samelian was last seen 8 hours, 21 minutes and 48 seconds ago, saying 'kb9vqf: I think yes, should be pretty simple actually' in #trinity-desktop. |
Qu4Z | Not as simple as he thought, apparently |
kb9vqf | my thoughts exactly |
kb9vqf | I needed him to add the Amarok documentation to CMake before the Ubuntu builds can finish |
Qu4Z | Ah, okay |
kb9vqf | all the Amarok source compiles fine, but the builds halt on the empty docs folder :-/ |
Qu4Z | :/ |
Qu4Z | Some sort of stub implementation for now? |
Qu4Z | lol, troll article from 2010: "For that matter, is KDE 3.5.11's speed and stability worth doing without the innovations of the KDE 4 desktop, such as folder view, the semantic desktop, the social desktop, remotely run widgets, or arranging apps in tabs in the same window?" |
K`zan | kb9vqf: No problem, machines here are large and furry for the most part :). |
Qu4Z | So my wishlist is gentoo overlay (which I understand is blocking on CMake conversion) and Webkit support in Konqueror (as that's the part of KDE3 that gives me most issues. The KHTML part is ... pretty incompatible these days). I understand that the webkit thing is blocking on Qt4 conversion, which is scheduled mostly after CMake (the release after, I think?) |
Qu4Z | Now, I know everyone's busy, and I'm not coming in here saying "Fix my pet issues". What I want to ask is what part of the project would I get the most bang-for-buck working on, given those goals? |
K`zan | Yikes, quickbuild is just a WHOLE LOT outside of my budget... |
Qu4Z | K`zan: Don't they have a separate license for OSS or something? |
kb9vqf | "innovations"? Those are the main problems with KDE4 IMHO |
Qu4Z | kb9vqf: If they stayed out of the way until you wanted to use them, it'd be fine |
kb9vqf | yeah, but they don't |
Qu4Z | Exactly |
kb9vqf | the entire desktop is built around them |
Qu4Z | And they're slow, on top of that |
Qu4Z | Yeah |
Qu4Z | And I don't need to tweet my keypresses or anything |
kb9vqf | of course from what I can tell a lot of those "innovations" were actually driven by the new Qt4 API and its end-user experience goals |
K`zan | Shareware, $2199, not sure if that is the full version or not: http://linux.softpedia.com/get/Information-Management/QuickBuild-8441.shtml |
kb9vqf | which is why KDE4 seems to belong on a cell phone :-/ |
kb9vqf | K`zan: Wrong software :) |
Qu4Z | Ouch, K`zan |
kb9vqf | https://quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/~trinity |
K`zan | Whew.... |
kb9vqf | or https://quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net |
Qu4Z | kb9vqf :) |
kb9vqf | QuickBuild is a Web service, a customized installation of Canonical's Launchpad suite of tools |
kb9vqf | it allows you to submit Debian packages to the Trinity build farm for building and publishing to the global mirror system |
K`zan | Just FWIW: This Connection is Untrusted |
K`zan | |
K`zan | |
K`zan | |
K`zan | |
K`zan | |
K`zan | |
K`zan | You have asked Firefox to connect |
kb9vqf | Yeah, I know |
Qu4Z | |
Qu4Z | |
K`zan | securely to quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net, but we can't confirm that your connection is secure. |
Qu4Z | |
Qu4Z | |
K`zan | |
kb9vqf | I can't afford a security certificate for it |
kb9vqf | it's self signed |
kb9vqf | no less secure, just not certified by a global trust authority |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: try cacert.org :) |
kb9vqf | I think they only let you have one certificate IIRC |
kb9vqf | I have several domains |
kb9vqf | pearsoncomputing.net is one of them |
K`zan | No problem, created an exception for you. You more trusted than gta... |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: no... I have 3 certificates generated by them on different domains so far |
kb9vqf | oh, ok |
kb9vqf | maybe they lifted that since I checked last |
Xu_R | i think so... |
*kb9vqf is humbled by K`zan :) | |
kb9vqf | well, I'll see what I can do about the certificates then |
kb9vqf | given my track record it will probably be a while |
K`zan | kb9vqf: I think you earned it :). |
kb9vqf | Qu4Z: The answer to your previous question about max. bang for buck would probably be the TQt interface itself |
kb9vqf | but you don't have the Qt experience to do much with it |
kb9vqf | unless I'm wrong :) |
*K`zan working at grabbing a clue to minimize mass dumb questions... | |
kb9vqf | The other would be CMake |
kb9vqf | K`zan: You can also ask Debian-specific packaging questions in the Debian IRC channels |
kb9vqf | I know they do things a bit differently than Ubuntu |
kb9vqf | so I may not be the best person to ask :) |
Qu4Z | Haha, nah. I've written a few small GUI things in Qt, but have little knowledge of advanced topics, or kde itself, unfortunately |
Qu4Z | Maybe I should pick something and make it work with CMake, then. |
Qu4Z | What about porting existing programs to TQt? |
kb9vqf | There's no written procedure for it I'm afraid |
kb9vqf | I have the scripts here, but they tend to mangle the source a bit |
kb9vqf | and also they can't handle certain logic structure changes |
Qu4Z | Hm... okay. I might stick to cmake for now, then :P |
kb9vqf | It would be of help |
kb9vqf | I'm rapidly becoming blocked on that myself |
Qu4Z | I guess really the first thing would be to get Trinity building on my system :P |
kb9vqf | i.e. I can port knetworkmanager and dolphin to TQt, but then I'm stuck waiting for additional CMake porting to be finished |
Qu4Z | Ewww, don't port Dolphin :P |
kb9vqf | everything else that has CMake support has been TQt ported already |
kb9vqf | hehe :) |
kb9vqf | I don't like it, but samelian does |
Qu4Z | Fair enough I guess |
kb9vqf | and we really, really need his help :) |
Qu4Z | I <3 Konqueror |
kb9vqf | me too |
Qu4Z | Well, I guess it's good to give people choices |
kb9vqf | yes |
kb9vqf | that is what we are about |
kb9vqf | including sending people to KDE4 or Gnome if that is what they really want |
Qu4Z | Also, you know that guy who was talking about not having multiple apps in tabs in one window, like KDE4 |
Qu4Z | He's clearly never heard of Konqueror and KParts :P |
kb9vqf | hehe |
kb9vqf | or a taskbar |
Qu4Z | lol |
Qu4Z | I think the point is multiple levels of taskbar |
Qu4Z | And/or logical task grouping together |
kb9vqf | and my question is.....why???? |
Qu4Z | Which leads me to believe he hasn't heard of virtual desktops |
kb9vqf | right |
kb9vqf | KDE4 just seems to be the same stuff repackaged and made harder to use |
Qu4Z | Yeah :/ |
kb9vqf | e.g. I bet his wonderful app tabs don't have previews like kpager |
kb9vqf | KDE4 lacks discoverability |
Qu4Z | Is there a ThreadWeaver thing in Trinity? |
kb9vqf | Yes |
Qu4Z | Cool |
kb9vqf | it's in kdepim somewhere |
Qu4Z | *blink* Okay. |
Qu4Z | Also, KIO is amazing. Just want to put that out there. |
kb9vqf | yes it is :) |
kb9vqf | especially fish:// |
kb9vqf | That is a feature I have seen nowhere else |
Qu4Z | From a user point of view, anyway. Like I said, haven't had the chance to do much KDE dev work yet. (looking at starting soon, though :) ) |
Qu4Z | Yeah |
Qu4Z | People are always like "Yeah, but you can just mount them somewhere, bladibla" |
kb9vqf | Uh huh |
Qu4Z | But that's not the point. I like getting my open window, and being able to open whatever the fuck I want. |
kb9vqf | then I would need to manually manage at least 10 mounts |
kb9vqf | :-P |
Qu4Z | Yeah, at least |
kb9vqf | ick |
Qu4Z | And... why would you? |
kb9vqf | That's what I hated about Linux back in the late 1990s |
Qu4Z | But yeah, I didn't mean to get all fired up about how awesome KDE is <_< |
kb9vqf | YOu should write some of it down |
kb9vqf | Put it on an Etherpad |
kb9vqf | we can put together something on the Website then to differentiate us from other desktops |
kb9vqf | "Features exclusive to TDE" or similar :) |
kb9vqf | also comes in handy to show the KDE4 trolls why we are maintaining the "obsolete" KDE3 desktop |
Qu4Z | Does KDE4 not have these features? Surely it does, right? |
kb9vqf | Ehh, not all of them |
Qu4Z | I mean... I know it's unpleasant to use, but I'm sure they support it a bit... |
kb9vqf | In fact a lot was removed' |
Qu4Z | :( Yeah |
Qu4Z | I haven't used KDE4 since like 4.3, I have to confess, so I thought they might've added stuff in again |
kb9vqf | Here's one I know Trinity has that KDE4 does not....carddav/caldav support |
Qu4Z | :) |
kb9vqf | which makes the Trinity PIM suite more standards compliant than the KDE4 one :)) |
Qu4Z | :D |
Qu4Z | I have to say I haven't (conciously) used either of those features, but it's still cool :) |
kb9vqf | I use them and they are great |
kb9vqf | I can keep my appointments synced up with my Zimbra server |
Qu4Z | :) Nice |
kb9vqf | so that all my Trinity desktops have the same info |
kb9vqf | same with addresses, etc. |
kb9vqf | Oh, and Trinity was the first to incorporate on-the-fly monitor configuration via krandrtray |
kb9vqf | output switching, etc. |
Qu4Z | :) |
kb9vqf | I think KDE4 finally got something similar, but it's harder to use |
kb9vqf | I can switch my monitor output with two mouse clicks |
kb9vqf | or one keyboard shortcut |
kb9vqf | Also I think Trinity is the only one to have built in ICC color profile support (still) |
Qu4Z | :) |
Qu4Z | That's cool :) |
kb9vqf | See what you can do when your core API isn't changing drastically? |
Qu4Z | :) |
kb9vqf | Trinity...by geeks, for geeks |
kb9vqf | I have read that KDE4 is trying to use the most recent theories on UI design |
kb9vqf | but those theories are all about limiting the information visible to the user |
kb9vqf | so as not to overwhelm him/her |
kb9vqf | Personally I want as much information on screen as possible |
Qu4Z | I'm pretty sure the KDE3 approach is to let the user choose how much information is displayed to them :P |
Qu4Z | Without needing to run gconf |
kb9vqf | Yes, but it has a heavy bias to showing more information than other desktops |
Qu4Z | Although I must say, I was a bit disappointed to find that I needed to use command line tools to get Konqueror to put the tabs at the bottom :( |
Qu4Z | And yeah, that's true |
kb9vqf | Hmm, sounds like a but |
kb9vqf | *bug |
kb9vqf | that should have a config feature |
Qu4Z | Well, I couldn't find it. Ideally, you should be able to drag it, rather than having a config feature as such |
*kb9vqf should probably wrap it up for tonight | |
kb9vqf | Yeah |
Qu4Z | Alright. |
kb9vqf | file a bug if you want |
kb9vqf | dragging would be good |
kb9vqf | and now that we have complete control over both TQt and Qt3, we can work around some of the limits that KDE could not :) |
Qu4Z | When I get home from work (it's 16:30 here) I'll clone trinity and get it building and work from there |
kb9vqf | ok |
Qu4Z | Probably adopt a poor orphaned autoconf project |
kb9vqf | be sure to check the CMake etherpad |
kb9vqf | put the project you've adopted on there so that effort is not duplicated |
Qu4Z | Yeah, I've seen that. I'll consult it before doing anything :) |
kb9vqf | ok |
Qu4Z | (and update it, yeah) |
kb9vqf | just wanted to make sure :) |
Qu4Z | Okay. Thanks for all the work you're doing :) |
kb9vqf | np, it's been fin |
Qu4Z | (all of you) |
kb9vqf | *fun |
kb9vqf | samelian deserves a nigh thank-you, but he's not here |
kb9vqf | *big |
*kb9vqf just can't type tonight :-P | |
Qu4Z | If I see him around, I'll thank him :) |
kb9vqf | sounds good :) |

kb9vqf-offsite | samelian: I have a couple of requests if you have time... |
samelian | kb9vqf: hit me |
kb9vqf-offsite | First, if you could get the Amarok documentation working with CMake then I can build the Ubuntu packages |
samelian | i will try to implement it today |
kb9vqf-offsite | Second, can you activate the knetworkmanager VPN plugins? |
samelian | I will try |
kb9vqf-offsite | ok |
kb9vqf-offsite | samelian: I will set the following CMake flags: -DWITH-OPENVPN="ON" -DWITH-VPNC="ON" -DWITH-PPTP="ON" |
kb9vqf-offsite | if you could use them when you do the plugins |
samelian | WITH_OPENVPN, actually |
samelian | underline, not minus |
kb9vqf-offsite | ok |
kb9vqf-offsite | samelian: Looks like there is another issue with knetworkmanager builds in general: https://quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/~trinity/+archive/trinity-nightly-builds/+build/3933 |
kb9vqf-offsite | It probably needs the same fix that you applied to Amarok earlier |
samelian | kb9vqf: yes, I think |

Piki | noooooooooo! *runs* |
Piki | :-D |
Xu_R | hey mutantturkey... been a while since we last saw you. |
mutantturkey | i know |
mutantturkey | I've been ridiculously busy and every time i stop by everyone is idling |
mutantturkey | I got a job, and that is sucking my time away as well as end of semster rush of schoolwork |
Xu_R | mutantturkey: :-\ |
mutantturkey | I've been also caught up in a silly bug that is preventing me fromb building, havent had the time to fix it. so no work done on it yet. |
mutantturkey | I was hoping to have kdetoys done by now but i haven't even begun to look at it. |
mutantturkey | D: |
mutantturkey | how are things around here? any updates i am missing? |
Xu_R | hey, it sounds like me right now |
Xu_R | mutantturkey: yea... new cmake stuff getting thrown out here, etherpad's been updated |
Xu_R | and we have the meeting tmrw, which you said you couldn't come to :( |
mutantturkey | what time is it? I may not be able to attend, |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: tmrw at 2PM |
mutantturkey | I do not think i will be home, I am currently in connecticut so i may not be able to make it in time. |
mutantturkey | typically i would have class at that time anyways |
Piki | 2PM Eastern? or UTC? |
Xu_R | mutantturkey: ah, i see. |
Xu_R | Piki: EST... |
mutantturkey | yeah sorry. If i am home by then i will be sure to attend |
Piki | ok |
Xu_R | mutantturkey: np... only reason I could make it early this time is because of spring break. |
mutantturkey | I won't be leaving till 11, but if traffic is not to terrible i could be there in time. |
mutantturkey | Xu_R: nice :) |
mutantturkey | anyway, what were you saying about new came stuff? |
mutantturkey | I am behind on stuff, and the mailing lists have been relatively quiet |
Xu_R | mutantturkey: hmm... traffic from ct to pa? oh, yea right. xD |
Xu_R | mutantturkey: etherpad has been updated, so check there :) |
mutantturkey | Xu_R: i don't see anything that sticks out D; |
Xu_R | the applications - amarok, dolphin, knetworkmanager, kpowersave |
mutantturkey | oh okay |
Xu_R | and the april meeting topics have been updated |
mutantturkey | good stuff |
mutantturkey | okay i will check that as well, thank you |
Xu_R | with a long narrative from kb9vqf on TQt :P |
mutantturkey | yes i see, did you also notice my bit about calligra? |
Xu_R | yup |
Xu_R | and I agree, so does kb9vqf :) |
mutantturkey | good, if i do not make it tomorrow, could you do some follow up on it? |
Xu_R | sure. |
Xu_R | Piki: a colour change for the April Meeting Topics, please. |
mutantturkey | thanks again. |
Xu_R | np |
mutantturkey | I've gotta run, family party is starting up. Thanks for the update on everything |
Xu_R | ok, cya later :) |
mutantturkey | cya, this week i may be able to start getting work done, just poke kb9vqf and tell him i am still alive? :p |
Xu_R | hehe, he'll know :) |

Anixx-suse | Robert, you wrote that KDE:KDE3 is being gradually migrated to Trinity. This is not the case. I have no plans to migrate the KDE:KDE3 repo to Trinity as this will bring instability |
Xu_R | Anixx-suse: ah, ok. |
Anixx-suse | KDE:KDE3 will remain KDE3.5.10 |
Xu_R | k. |
Xu_R | *ok |
Anixx-suse | I thought you are working on Trinity port. |
Xu_R | I am... |
Anixx-suse | ok. than that will become the trinity repo |
Xu_R | ok. |
Anixx-suse | you can use anything from KDE:KDE3 repo of course |
Anixx-suse | We already have multiple versions of KDE and Gnome, including 3 or 4 repos with KDE4 |
Xu_R | true. |
*MutantTurkey1 has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Piki | MutantTurkey1: Wilma, I'm home! |

*jumpship has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Strangelv | It'll be a few before I can get back to sleep |
MutantTurkey1 | cya guys, I'll be around laterish |
*MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: could you tar me up the website? I noticed a few things that could be fixed up easily |
Piki | MutantTurkey: maybe you can get kb9vqf to setup a drop point on the server filesystem from which he can move your files to the webroot when you're done modifying the site, maybe a webmaster user with a ~/public_html dir to test the changes |
Piki | and just let you write access to only the drop point |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: ^ what he said, whaddya think? |
*kb9vqf just got back on, still catching up | |
kb9vqf | Well, are we really going to modify the site that often? |
kb9vqf | I could see a drop box for the news text files, etc. |
kb9vqf | but not for the site itself |
kb9vqf | The biggest problem is that PHP is executed on the server machine |
*K`zan has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | and I don't like security holes, however small they may be |
kb9vqf | Which files did you want to modify MutantTurkey? |
kb9vqf | The site is pretty well integrated with the rest of the autogeneration systems, etc at this point |
MutantTurkey | yes I understand that. |
Piki | kb9vqf: maybe you can talk to bero, i don't like the system he has to give us root access :-P |
MutantTurkey | installation.php has some weird font issues i think that are to the css file |
MutantTurkey | Also wth is withthe releases page? It seems to be totally the old site. |
MutantTurkey | I need to work that out |
kb9vqf | ok, I'll send over the css directory and the installation.php file |
MutantTurkey | okay :) |
kb9vqf | the "new" releases page was missing a bunch of information so I used the old one |
MutantTurkey | ok, yes because nobody ever finished it aha |
MutantTurkey | bbs |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: sent |
MutantTurkey | thank you |
MutantTurkey | also the patches section isn't integrated and is still forward sorting |

Xu_R | ehehehehe >:D |
Piki | we don't get a lot of those, i'm in a mountainous region |
Piki | we had a warning recently, we average between 2 and 5 of those a year, but nothing's really happened so far besides high winds |
kb9vqf | Ah, good, your very own shield |
*glebfm has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Xu_R | heh... I'm playing with my Drupal installation instead of studying for APs.. >:P |

kb9vqf | :) |
*glebfm has left #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | uh oh, we drove someone away.... |
*kb9vqf goes back to work | |
Xu_R | trololol ;P |
Strangelv | :: doesn't need the brick for teh plant tray as te blought the plants in when he noticed the thunder. He uses it to weigh Piki down |
Xu_R | Strangelv: how many bricks? :O |
Strangelv | :: wonders where Piki is that he got hit at the same hime he did |
Piki | Strangelv: pittsburgh, pa |
Strangelv | Just about a third of one. Just enough to keep the tray from blowving all over my back yard instead of being underneath my plants in sprouting containers. I'd go into more detail, but inexperienced vegetable gardening isn't on topic in here |
Xu_R | ol |
Xu_R | *lol |
Xu_R | grr... my keyboard is sprouting random symbols today |
kb9vqf | Looks like a lot of the USis getting hit by storms right now anyway |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: true, true |
Strangelv | "Okay, yes the front is hitting you at the same time as North texas |
kb9vqf | hey, you need the rain down there in TX AFAIK |
Strangelv | "We usually need the rain here |
Xu_R | Strangelv: where in TX? I have a cousin there |
Strangelv | Denton |
Xu_R | ah, dunno where that is lol |
Strangelv | 40 minutes ronth of Dallas |
Strangelv | north, too |
Xu_R | Strangelv: drive fast? ;) aren't the speed limits there like 75 mph? |
Xu_R | (and I get off topic XD) |
Strangelv | My health precludes me driving, unfortunately |
Xu_R | ah. |
Strangelv | Ft worth is closer largely becaues of the higher speed limit on I-35W versus I-35E |
Strangelv | Denton is where the north end of the fork is |
Xu_R | o. my cousin is west of that, I think. but I have no clue XP |
Strangelv | Texas is a large place |
Strangelv | even if not as largfe as it used to be |

kb9vqf | !seen samelian |
tbottu | samelian was last seen 22 hours, 30 minutes and 44 seconds ago, saying 'kb9vqf: documentation for amarok is done' in #trinity-desktop. |
Piki | what would he do if you tried !seen on yourself? :-D |
kb9vqf | !seen kb9vqf |
tbottu | You're right here, duh! |
kb9vqf | :) |
Piki | lol |
Piki | AL-Bot would say that "Piki is here now" :-) |
kb9vqf | I kind of like t bottu's sassiness :) |
kb9vqf | keeps conversation here lively |
Piki | i could imitate that with AL-Bot, just modify the needed tcl script :-) |
Piki | i just prefer to leave that to live users, some people would get scared by a computer being rude to them, or just don't like the idea of a sassy computer program :-D |
kb9vqf | ah |
kb9vqf | well, if I get enough complaints I'll change it.... |
Piki | i know i get annoyed by those computer recordings on the phone that want to apologize for something, it just sounds really weird when a non-feeling computer claims to feel sorry lol |
Xu_R | tbottu is an imitation of kb9vqf's sassiness :P |
tbottu | Xu_R: Sorry, I've no idea what 'is an imitation of kb9vqf's sassiness :P' might be. |
kb9vqf | :) |
*kb9vqf does not know if that is a compliment or an insult.... | |
Piki | the idea just doesn't sound likely with today's tech :-) |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: take it as a compliment :) |
kb9vqf | ok |
Piki | kb9vqf: you keep the conversation lively much beter than tbottu ;-P |
kb9vqf | that's good to hear |
kb9vqf | last I checked I'm not a 100kb script on a hard disk :-p |
Xu_R | lmao |
Piki | kb9vqf: that's why tbottu is the imitation and not you lol ;-) |
kb9vqf | :) |
kb9vqf | I got knetworkmanager to build on Qt4...so that leaves dolphin before I am completely blocked by CMake |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: that's good. |
kb9vqf | someone needs to get kdegraphics finished |
kb9vqf | it looks like it is close |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey ^^^^^ |
kb9vqf | :) |
kb9vqf | talk to samelian and get it done soon please.... |
kb9vqf | i would like to continue tqt4 porting |
*kb9vqf is reminded of the old adage...."Herding programmers is like hearding cats" | |
kb9vqf | *herding |
Piki | herding cats is easy considering you know the cats and the cats know each other :-P |
Piki | or rather, you know the cats, and the cats get along with each other |
kb9vqf | ah |
kb9vqf | most cats I have met are rather independent-minded |
Piki | yes |
Piki | but they can still be herded |
kb9vqf | yes |
kb9vqf | so can programmers, just with more effort :) |
Piki | you just need to pick and choose the cats to make sure they get along with each other, and you need to know them very well |
kb9vqf | Hmmm....I hear pops and crackles in my speakers....must be a storm nearby :D |
Piki | yes |
Xu_R | we are not sheep >: |
kb9vqf | nope |
Piki | kb9vqf: you need to know the quirks, interests, and motives of the programmers, and use those to your advantage, preferrably to achieve your own single-minded goals :-D |
kb9vqf | yes |
kb9vqf | that is good management technique |
kb9vqf | now back to work all of you :)) |
kb9vqf | j/k |
Piki | personally i don't bend myself to someone elses single-minded goals but to my own, but i doubt i'd make a good leader lol |
kb9vqf | I think most people in FOSS are somewhat independent |
kb9vqf | otherwise they would not be here, they would be in a large Apple herd somewhere paying their dues ;-) |
kb9vqf | It makes managing FOSS projects a challenge |
Xu_R | (COUGH ORACLE COUGH) |
Xu_R | btw, OpenOffice.org got dumped by Oracle |
kb9vqf | hehe |
kb9vqf | Oracle does not seem to be doing well these days |
Xu_R | (a bit too late through, the community moved on and OpenOffice.org looks like it's going to die) |
Xu_R | not with the OSS community, no |
Piki | we'll still have libreoffice? |
Piki | OOo served me well until oracle took over it |
Xu_R | well... yea. libreoffice is here to stay. |
kb9vqf | Anyway don't get me started on the current sorry state of FOSS and the severe fragmentation going on ATM |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: let's not go there. |
kb9vqf | right |
kb9vqf | we need more projects like this one though to prevent the rapid shifts that are occuring |
kb9vqf | otherwise FOSS looks (and is) worse than Apple/M$ |
kb9vqf | anyway, back on topic...... |
Piki | considering Apple keeps their kernel open, they'll always be better than M$, though they'd be better if they made the whole thing open |
Piki | personally i'd rather stay with FOSS |
Piki | yes |
Piki | no need to rouse ourseflves :-) |
kb9vqf | I would to, but if it takes my entire life just to maintain the computer in a usable state...well.... |
kb9vqf | *too |
kb9vqf | :) |
kb9vqf | Hopefully MutantTurkey got the CMake kdegraphics message |
kb9vqf | I'll be back later on |
Xu_R | kk |
Piki | kb9vqf: that's been me since early 2009, none of my distros are stable these last few years :-) but i'm still here |
kb9vqf | so am I :) |
Xu_R | I'll pester him if he doesn't get it (if I see him) |
kb9vqf | ok, thanks |
MutantTurkey | hey kb9vqf is see about kdegraphics |
MutantTurkey | samelian keeps rejecting it :[ it's always dumb syntax issues he has a quarrel with, two spaces instead of one and such things. I have almost everything in there done, all that i can handle at least, and i really need him to step in and finish it up i think |
MutantTurkey | i currently don't have a up to date trinity system, because I have no idea whats up with Baho or David so i can't build right now |
MutantTurkey | only a few modules left in kdegraphics to fix i think |
Xu_R | oh, nice. |
Xu_R | so you're waiting on samelian... |
MutantTurkey | no, Baho and David to update the svn, then samelian about this macro... |
Xu_R | oh. |
Xu_R | hehe... Playing with Drupal is fun ^_^ |
*poprocks has left #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Just keep pressure on whoever you need to in order to keep things moving please |
kb9vqf | if you need him to help just tell him to do it :) |
kb9vqf | samelian that is |
kb9vqf | I'm placing kdegraphics at the highest priority since it is closest to completion |
kb9vqf | oh and thanks for working on it in the first place :) |

Piki | kb9vqf: tab completion helps determine if people are here if you're too lazy to check the nick list :-P (ser<tab> "hmm, serghei not here" or sam<tab> "hmm, samelian not here" lol) |
kb9vqf | yeah, I know I should check |
kb9vqf | just wanted to get that URL off my clipboard :-P |
Piki | email, or text file :-) |
Piki | if i'm not mistaken, klipper has a way to set a larger clipboard buffer |
Piki | haven't checked in awhile |
kb9vqf | oh yes, klipper is quite nice that way |
kb9vqf | I am a bit frustrated that these "completed" applications are not actually complete |
kb9vqf | CMake wise, that is |
kb9vqf | and my frustration is showing I guess :-) |
Piki | yes, i'm not good at hiding my frustration, and i'd be frustrated about that if i were heading the project :-) |
Piki | things like that are rather annoying and will only slow things down |
Piki | maybe cause us to push a release only to discover something wasn't actually done even though it was marked done |
kb9vqf | right |
kb9vqf | case in point: knetworkmanager |
kb9vqf | it will "build OK" but all the VPN functionality is gone |
kb9vqf | the cmake files need to be added to the plugin directory |
kb9vqf | we may need to go to alpha/beta for this release |
Piki | just because it builds doesn't mean it's done, everything that should be there isn't building therefor not done :-) |
kb9vqf | yeah, but the only reason I caught it is because I practically rewrote knetworkmanager a while ago |
kb9vqf | if I hadn't done that I wouldn't even know |
kb9vqf | oh well |
Piki | we should do alphas and betas for any major change regardless of confidence, that confidence may be our undoing |
Piki | and a rc regardless of whether or not an alpha or beta is done |
kb9vqf | yes, probably |
kb9vqf | getting OFF the Ubuntu cycle has helped this goal considerbly |
kb9vqf | although I worry we may have just lost a large part of our userbase :-/ |
Piki | why? ubuntu isn't actually good, they just have a lot of marketing power that enables them to attract people over from a certain braindead OS, so people don't realize they're using a braindead linux distro :-) |
Piki | and most of them become familiar with debian at some point anyway, they are closely related |
Piki | though the fact that debian has kde isn't as obvious, they don't have a "Kebian" or some such, one has to go through the menu when the ISO boots |
kb9vqf | mainly because I was heavily pushing Ubuntu originally, and I know a lot of users were on Kubuntu |
kb9vqf | In fact I am still on Ubuntu, primarily so that I can have prebuilt modern drivers in a timely fashion |
kb9vqf | newer kernels, etc. |
kb9vqf | otherwise Debian would be fine |
Piki | as i understand the debian repos, volatile should give you that? |
kb9vqf | along with a lot of crashing AFAIK |
Piki | i have more crashing in ubuntu |
kb9vqf | I want stable yet new versions of the core kernel & drivers |
Piki | and a lot of lag |
kb9vqf | ah |
kb9vqf | well, for me it's OK |
kb9vqf | probably because of the hardware I run it on |
kb9vqf | Debian never seemed to support all my hardware |
kb9vqf | so I got frustrated quickly |
Piki | debian seems to work fine at it's core, and i've always been able to fall back to a CLI if something happens then restart X, but ubuntu has a bad habit of panicing |
kb9vqf | one can waste a lot of time recompiling kernels.... :-P |
Piki | it's kernel, that is |
kb9vqf | ah |
kb9vqf | never had that here |
kb9vqf | like I said, it's probably the hardware I use |
kb9vqf | and the fact that a lot of my machines are headless |
Piki | how strict is ubuntu about remain free software? i know debian is very strict, i had to enable nonfree in order to get my wireless working, but everything else worked fine |
kb9vqf | not very strict |
kb9vqf | which, honestly, I lik |
kb9vqf | *like |
kb9vqf | if the manufacturer provided a non-free blob that works, it's OK with me |
kb9vqf | and I'd rather have it installed automatically |
Piki | ubuntu doesn't work on any piece of hardware i stick it on, regardless of manufacturer, age, specs, etc |
kb9vqf | ah |
kb9vqf | well, it's not for everyone I guess |
kb9vqf | and I definitely wouldn't run it out of the box :) |
kb9vqf | the default DEs are garbage |
*kb9vqf isn't biased...nooooo.... | |
Piki | i don't like ubuntu or debian, but between the two i'd definitely choose debian, it's kernel doesn't panic as easily, i've always been able to restart X from a CLI, and i tend to be pretty strict about remain FOSS, so their strictness doesn't bother me at all, especially considering i can enable nonfree repos if i absolutely need them |
Strangelv | :: must be running the right hardware. He's never had *ubuntu panic |
Piki | the right hardware must be raare :-) |
*Strangelv has the golden touch | |
*Strangelv didn't know this until this evening | |
Strangelv | What video do you use? |
Piki | i've run ubuntu and kubuntu and a very wide range of hardware from a wide range of manufacturers (even machines custom built to run linux), and neither worked at all |
*Strangelv almost never has a non-cheap video card. He's running teh only recent one -- and it's a wokrstation card -- FireGL | |
Strangelv | "The only stock machines I've had are notebooks and a netbook. The problem with those has been wireless |
Piki | even on my first laptop (made a year before ubuntu appeared), ubuntu kept assigning the proprietary ati driver to a card that wasn't supported by the proprietary driver and that was supported perfectly by the FOSS driver, and i couldn't get to X at all |
Piki | mine current video card is an Intel |
Piki | which is FOSS friendly |
Strangelv | "Early on I remember needing to add parameters at the start -- okay, I remember this now |
Strangelv | "-noacpi and the like |
Piki | and doesn't give me trouble except with debian and *buntu |
Strangelv | "The parameters were added during the installation, with what would now mbe called teh alt CD |
*Strangelv has never strayed from the .deb side of the fence | |
Piki | my second laptop, made in 2007, ran debian fine except for the sound card, and i was able to configure and use the nvidia 3D driver from nonfree without a problem, but ubuntu and kubuntu kept crashing out X |
Strangelv | "although it was a long time before my experiments got me a working X environment. Mainly because I was trying to dual boot and didn't have access to full disc images -- I was on dialup |
Strangelv | "and destitute |
Piki | even though the sound worked (though not as high a quality as windows, and i could make it work better in other distros) |
Strangelv | You'er cursed. 8\ |
Piki | on my current machine, debian's video lags, and everything in *buntu lags (including boot -- a fresh install of ubuntu take ~10 seconds longer than a fresh install of debian, using default options in both) |
Piki | not really |
Strangelv | I must admit I don't pay much attention to boot times |
Piki | on both my first and second laptop, Ark Linux worked perfectly (except for the proprietary nvidia drive on the second, don't really use 3D anyway, so i kept to the 2D driver) |
*Strangelv had a power outage teh other day that messed up his UPS causing it to shut off despite having bottery power, so his uptime is only 8 days 10 hours. Before that he'd been up for more than 30 days | |
Piki | of course, the luck ends there, Ark has been working on a new release since 2008, and the kernel is too outdate for my current wireless and intel driver too outdated for my card |
Strangelv | I must admit I'm out of guesess for why our experienecs are so different |
Piki | and neither of my previous laptops are functional |
Strangelv | Except that I run AMD pretty much exclusively. Except my netbook -- that's a Centaur |
*kb9vqf notes that since it was taken down for hardware upgrades his Ubuntu server was up "21:59:36 up 25 days" | |
kb9vqf | and still going strong :) |
kb9vqf | if it weren't for the upgrades it would have been up for many months at this point |
Piki | well, if *buntu/debian actially work for anyone, i call it pure luck on their part, though considering how many computers i've put them on, i find it hard to believe they would actually work |
Strangelv | My server experiences are rather limitee |
Strangelv | limited |
kb9vqf | Almost all of my systems run Ubuntu, and all have similar uptimes |
kb9vqf | the only crashes I have had are due to confirmed hardware failures |
kb9vqf | e.g. RAM failing and flipping bits |
Strangelv | I definitely concur that if i had your experiences with it I'd be avoiding it and hating it too |
kb9vqf | me too |
kb9vqf | I have no idea why it has behaved so badly for you though |
*Strangelv 's present workstation that he got whet he had money to burn uses registered DIMMs | |
kb9vqf | ECC and registered memory FTW :) |
kb9vqf | I won't use non-ECC memory for anything other than gaming |
Strangelv | 8 opteron cores and 16 GB |
Piki | if i had a good desktop and a stable version of Ark, my desktop would run until we had a power failure, and even then it might not go down if the power goes back on before the UPS dies |
kb9vqf | sounds like my Ubuntu experience :-/ |
Strangelv | DDR2, though. The DDR 3 Opteron socket wasn't available yet |
kb9vqf | DDR2 is just fine |
kb9vqf | DDR3 is too expensive on the scale I do things on |
Strangelv | It's getting pricier |
Strangelv | and not as easy to find |
kb9vqf | everything is :-/ |
Piki | and most of the desktops i've used have an option in the bios to power back on if the power goes out |
Strangelv | I need to find and fork out for moer DDR2 sometime soonish |
Strangelv | my DIMMs are 4 GB each and only half are used. I could up this machine to 32 GB |
kb9vqf | I've noticed that high performance (non-"green") hardware in general is going up rapidly |
Piki | i just find it hard to believe that any of the *buntu's work, and i'd expect better from debian considering how long they take between releases |
kb9vqf | to each his own I guess |
kb9vqf | no distro wars here :) |
Strangelv | The main vulnerability I have with this machine is that when it gets disk thrashing, it rapidly reaches and falls down an event horizon. Reboot time. |
kb9vqf | just a curiosity as to why Ubuntu has behaved so badly for you |
kb9vqf | ah, that |
kb9vqf | now that IS an Ubuntu bug |
Piki | not trying to start a distro war, just stating how horrible an experience i've had that i can't believe they work |
kb9vqf | means the swap system is not working properly |
*kb9vqf knows | |
Strangelv | I've not had it this bad with previous machine,s possibyl because they didn't have as much swap space |
Strangelv | any ideas for addressing that? |
kb9vqf | try increasing your swappiness value to 100 |
kb9vqf | make sure you have enough swap, etc. |
Piki | anyways, should've been in bed an hour ago |
Piki | later |
kb9vqf | ok |
Strangelv | This occurs when somethirg goes nuts and tries to allocate an infinite amount of RAM. By teh tim I notice it's ofthen too late to stop |
Strangelv | "later |
kb9vqf | ah, ok |
kb9vqf | well, that's the Ubuntu bug all right |
kb9vqf | the OOM killer doesn't run when it should |
kb9vqf | it's unsolved |
kb9vqf | and only occurs on 64 bit |
Strangelv | So that's why SysRq-F was useless... |
kb9vqf | yup |
kb9vqf | too much memory pressure |
Strangelv | I was assuming it simply wasn't seeing my keyboard input at all |
Strangelv | after all, caps, num, and scroll locks are long since nonresponsive by this point |
kb9vqf | well, it might not be, depending on how badly the kernel is thrashing |
kb9vqf | I tend to run without swap here |
kb9vqf | or with a small swap space |
kb9vqf | it seems to minimize the effects of this bug |
Strangelv | I want to be able to hibernate. I've also made some rather huge GIMP images in the past few months. First as a test, then becaues I liked the results I was getting |
kb9vqf | right |
Strangelv | I may need to reduce the swap size |
kb9vqf | the only other suggestion I have is to reduce your overcommit ratio |
kb9vqf | google should show you how :) |
Strangelv | something taht would help would be if the desktop font had a thicker black outline |
kb9vqf | that way applications will simply fail OOM instead of bringing down the machien |
kb9vqf | *machine |
Strangelv | I'd be able to responsibly submit some of my works for wallpaper |
kb9vqf | well, submit them anyway |
kb9vqf | that should be configurable |
kb9vqf | if it's not then it's a bug |
Strangelv | we'd need to configure the defaurlts. Also, where should I upload graphics? |
kb9vqf | to the Wiki |
kb9vqf | sounds like a good job for a theme |
*Strangelv is waaay behinsd the curve on SVN, whether for TDE or for Dimensionality | |
kb9vqf | right :) |
kb9vqf | put them to the Wiki, then we'll vote at the next meeting on which ones to include |
kb9vqf | and I can push them to SVN |
Strangelv | I'll try to remember. Please feel free to nag me if i've not ULed anything |
kb9vqf | ok :) |
*kb9vqf forgets too | |
Strangelv | The less often we remember at the same time teh less overlap there will be. 8) |
Strangelv | That could have been phrased better |
*Strangelv woke up way too early, couldn't get back to sleep, then got too little sleep. Expect him to be mostly out of it for the rest of today, too | |
Strangelv | any policy regarding comment fields in images? Rose would be more comfortable letting me donate graphics if Dimensionality could get credit in some capacity -- the comment field seems the only place to do anything of the sort |
*Strangelv whispers a security through obscurity URL to Timothy | |
kb9vqf | fine with me |
kb9vqf | about the comments field that is |
kb9vqf | the wallpaper is a little "loud" on my screen |
kb9vqf | but like I said, feel free to upload a large batch and we can sifth through them |
kb9vqf | *sift |
Strangelv | They get a lot louder. 8) |

jumpship | Hello, I'm having trouble running programs as other users on debian squeeze, does anyone have advice on how to set this up correctly? |
*kb9vqf uses Ubuntu so he can't really help | |
jumpship | Do you have any ideas why konqueror would run as root, but the settings dialog would be empty? |
kb9vqf | did you run it from within a Trinity desktop session? |
kb9vqf | if not you will need to make sure all the environment vars are set correctly before launch |
kb9vqf | https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/Kde3/Maverick#Executing%20KDE3/Trinity%20applications%20from%20another%20DE |
jumpship | I'm running in trinity, but there is more to that story, does konq use dbus for the settings? |
jumpship | Thanks so much for Trinity, btw, I almost had to switch to Gnome |
kb9vqf | nope, it uses flat text files |
kb9vqf | thanks for the encouragement :) |
kb9vqf | actually I can't think of any reason, other than incorrect env vars, that Konqueror woudn't be able to find its configuration files :-/ |
jumpship | So my problem is likely an env var not set correctly... ya beat me to it :) |

Xu_R | kb9vqf: I just got word from suse that the qt3 patch is binary compatible. Can you ask Debian how they got their binary incompatible result? |
Xu_R | also, a developer wants to know the purpose of the qt3 patch (specifics?). Should I just say that it adds in missing functions that is needed for TQt to work? Or something of the sort...? I don't want to give bad information. |

zloty | hi anyone use tde on debian sid (aptosid)? |
zloty | im cannot find anything about it on web |
*cdahmedeh has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: You are correct |
kb9vqf | it adds two functions that allow the Trinity code to use object list objects instead of pointers to object lists |
kb9vqf | it also can stabilize object list handling by preventing bad pointer accesses |

kb9vqf | same_: Any progress on the Amarok FTBFS I reported earlier? |

same_ | about your error, I need to study a little how translations works |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: also, there is a new version of same_'s patch that fixes the patching problem on systems - it's because of symlinks inside the qt3 tarball. |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: https://api.opensuse.org/public/source/home:bravoall1552:branches:KDE:KDE3/qt3/qt-3.3.8c.diff |
kb9vqf | ok, uploaded to the Wiki |
*field_it has joined #trinity-desktop | |
*cfaust has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: so I said how the patch "prevents bad pointer accesses" and got a response of "Hm. Not so sure about that." JFYI. :-\ |
Xu_R | (wants to take a look at TQt code though, so I gave him the path to the current tqtinterface (the public one at kde.org)) |
*Space_Man has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | well, it would only do so in the Trinity code that has been adjusted to use the objects instead of the pointers |
kb9vqf | out of the box it does nothing ;-) |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: well, I'll let him have a look at tqtinterface. |
kb9vqf | of course |
kb9vqf | the primary goal of tqtinterface is to abstract Trinity from Qt |
kb9vqf | anything else benificial is merely a side effect, and anything detrimental is of course a bug ;-) |

samelian | for dbus-1-tqt I renamed dbus-tqt.pc to dbus-1-tqt.pc |
kb9vqf | samelian: Did you do that on the official KDE SVN or svn.trinitydesktop.org? |
kb9vqf | I haven't synced svn.trinitydesktop.org (the master) to the KDE SVN recently |
samelian | kb9vqf: i did it on my local copy |
kb9vqf | so you want me to rename dbus-tqt.pc in the master SVN? |
samelian | I this it is necesarry, because ATM we have two dbus versions |
samelian | I think* |
samelian | If you want, I will commit my changes to svn.trinitydesktop.org |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | yes, please do |
kb9vqf | but you will need to rebuild-test knetworkmanager/kpowersave from SVN |
samelian | commited |

MutantTurkey | i kept sending it in and there was dumb stuff he wanted me to fix. |
kb9vqf | well, that "dumb stuff" keeps the code consistent across all modules |
kb9vqf | you don't want your module to stick out like a sore thumb / be unrepairable to someone familiar with the way things were done inside the other Trinity modules |
MutantTurkey | I know, but it was simple things that weren't worth emailing over and over for one line... |
MutantTurkey | also there is no "official rulebook" so it was sort of like hit and miss with the rules |
kb9vqf | I understand; we do need some rules written down somewhere |

*Piki has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Piki | hi |
Piki | had a bit of HAL trouble (decided to reinstall debian squeeze on an encrypted partition, had trouble starting HAL). i've got HAL working and kpowersave can see the battery just fine and manipulate my power settings just fine except for standby, suspend, and hibernate, which don't seem to be available to anything in TDE (or at least aren't on the logoff menu) |
Piki | i have to switch to CLI and execute pm_suspend to supsend the computer. the odd part (i don't know if this is TDE or Xorg) goes to VT8 instead of VT7 as it normally does booting from grub |
Piki | my main concern is getting suspend/hibernate available to trinity, i don't like having it shut down on low battery because that force-closes my apps, so i don't have a chance to save if i'm not at the laptop |
Xu_R | Strangelv: upgrade worked - don't be scared :P |

*kb9vqf does not know how to fix Piki's problem so he's hiding ;-) | |
Piki | lol |
Piki | i'm thinking of reinstalling TDE (doing a complete removal to purge the config files). i've fluxbox installed, so it's no biggie if i don't get to actually installing after i remove |
Piki | it took me a few days to figure out HAL, turns out it was generating a cache file under the wrong name, i needed to rename to make it work |
Piki | i'm thinking that problem might have interfered with TDE when i installed it |
Piki | kb9vqf: btw, i remember seeing kdesu problems on the mailing list so i'm not sure if i should file this in the bug tracker, but for some reason kdesu is acting as kdesudo. it wouldn't work at all (e.g. typing "kdesu synaptic" in the Run dialog would nothing), so i set myself up in sudoers, and now kdesu the same as kdesudo (same dialog, using my password instead of root) |

Strangelv | It did its best to change sources.list, seems to have ripped out things it couldn't find Natty versions of, and ripped out everything it couldn't find in sources.list. TDE was only one of the things it did this with. |

kb9vqf | I use it all the time, but then again I get to do the dpkg --configure -a && apt-get -f install cycle a lot ;-) |
kb9vqf | Debian keeps looking more attractive to me |
Strangelv | dpkg -i --force-overwrite /var/somethingorother/somenamehere.so |
kb9vqf | yeah, that too |
Strangelv | There are reasons I migrated away from debian, although the mess you can get in combining Ubuntu and Debian packages was part of it |
Strangelv | 'I had a system with just such a wess before I reinstalled |
kb9vqf | yes, I know first hand about some of Debian' |
kb9vqf | s problems |
Strangelv | Previously I'd used Libranet as my Debian installer |
Strangelv | "Then Libranet went away after its owner/developer died rather abruptly |
kb9vqf | but Ubuntu has made it so that the only way I can upgrade is to back up and dist-upgrade while crossing my fingers |
Strangelv | Looking for a replacement that could provide a newer kernel and XOrg, I ended up with Kubuntu 5.04 |
kb9vqf | sounds familiar :) |
kb9vqf | except my first was 7.04 |
Strangelv | It was never my plan to end up with the kewl populr distro |
kb9vqf | was on Debian before that, and Fedora 3 earlier |
Strangelv | I was trying to use the so-untrendy Debian since 1997 or so |
Strangelv | Dual booting is a non-solution if you keep your machien up 24/7 and the only time it goes down is followed up by a mad vscramble to get back up and wheer you were before the crash... |
kb9vqf | :) |
*kb9vqf is also familiar with that | |
kb9vqf | My uptime is usually measured in months |
Strangelv | Took awhile to scrape together a second machine that could run it. Most of my extra hardware was 486 boards with 4 SIMM slots and all my 30 pin SIMMs were 1 M. I neverdid find an installer I could download over dialup that only needed 4 MB |
kb9vqf | that's the limit of what I can stand in terms of kernel security patches, which force restarts |
*Strangelv tries to send himself some money from 2011 to 2001, but runs into snags | |
Strangelv | "Send myself money to buy silver at $4 an ounce... |
kb9vqf | hehe |
kb9vqf | hindsight is always 20/20 |
*kb9vqf wishes he had bought some gold at around the same time | |
Strangelv | "I desperately wanted to buy gold at teh time; had no money |
Strangelv | I didn't know that silver was an even better idea |
Strangelv | Similarly I desperately wanted ot short Rambus at its overhyped peak and buy AMD right before the K7 came out |
Strangelv | Both of those plays would have gone precisely as I predicted |
kb9vqf | my the way, I would hold off on upgrading to Natty right now, not based on Trinity, but because my "stock" Natty systems keep crashing |
kb9vqf | *By |
kb9vqf | They are basic installs running Xvfb and no window manager, so it has to be a bug or bugs in the Natty kernel, which already has other known bugs related to power management |
kb9vqf | Ubuntu put out a sloppy product this time |
kb9vqf | I think the 6 month release cycle is biting them hard |
*kb9vqf knows he couldn't keep up with it, and suspects core devs couldn't either :-P | |
Strangelv | One of the main difficulties I had with Debian's rolling system is that I couldn't really run testing because that's not what enybody compiled against |
Strangelv | "They always compiled against unstable |
Strangelv | I don't know if this is still the case |
*kb9vqf is getting a chuckle out of the Gnome 3.0 fuss--been there, done that, created Trinity in response :) | |
Strangelv | I kind of dropped out in late 2005 |
Strangelv | "And thank you very much focr taking the lead on this, as if I've ont said that enough times in the past year and a half or so |
Strangelv | or is it two years now? |
kb9vqf | It's been a while; I've lost track of time myself |
kb9vqf | At this point Trinity is a unique product |
kb9vqf | there is nothing else like it available |
kb9vqf | closest is xfce |
kb9vqf | I'm curious how all those KDE 3 users that went to Gnome are liking the change ;-) |
Strangelv | Any estimates on when the next version isn't going to be spread across teh tarmac? |
kb9vqf | ? |
Strangelv | There are still systems and distros using pre-TDE KDE 3 |
Strangelv | The CMake conversions, the TQt conversions |
kb9vqf | Ah, that |
kb9vqf | Those are actually the main conversions ;-) |
kb9vqf | I don't have any others planned |
kb9vqf | Those two should allow us to run for many years |
kb9vqf | The only other "must do" is a HAL migration, but that affects kdebase and kpowersave only |
kb9vqf | and a very small part of kdebase at that |
Strangelv | Just hope CMake doesn't decide to follow Automake's random compatibility breakage cycle |
kb9vqf | They haven't so far |
kb9vqf | and looking at the two file formats, CMake is far less likely to break |
kb9vqf | Automake was always a mess |
kb9vqf | CMake is small and clean |
Strangelv | Is there a progress chart or list anywhere? |
Strangelv | a list of packages and their status? |
Strangelv | or separate lists taht could be used to construct such a list? |
kb9vqf | See the channel topic ;-) |
kb9vqf | Also, I have been taking all CMake buildable packages and performing the final TQt4 conversion on them |
kb9vqf | so, a list of completely finished conversion packages is available here: https://quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/~trinity/+archive/trinity-nightly-builds/+packages?start=0&batch=300 |
Strangelv | Okay, tahkn you. I'd focgotten about that page |
kb9vqf | If it builds (the green checkmark), it is completely converted to CMake and TQt4 |
kb9vqf | np |
Strangelv | Fifefox 6 doesn't trust that link |
kb9vqf | Yes, I can't afford a "real" security certificate |
kb9vqf | I hear that there is a free one available from Xu_R, but I have not had time to look into it yet |
kb9vqf | that is, Xu_R told me where to get a free one ;-) |
kb9vqf | The one I have now is self signed |
Strangelv | Dolphin... why name such a pathetic excuse for an application after such a wonderful creature? |
kb9vqf | Hehe |
kb9vqf | And intelligent too |
Strangelv | yes |
kb9vqf | the last thing I think of when using the application |
Strangelv | we need to incorporate other intelligent creatures into our culture. It may be the best solution to protecting them |
Strangelv | Can't afford a lobotomy? Run Dolphin! |
kb9vqf | :)) |
kb9vqf | Guaranteed to give you carpal tunnel from feverish mouse clicking! |
Strangelv | I didn't get that far |
Strangelv | I read the hype, went out of my way to install it, and then... wait a minute. What am I missing here... |
kb9vqf | how about...everything? |
*Strangelv laughs | |
kb9vqf | The only way to get around Qt4's inherent clunkiness is to....not use the Qt4 widgets :-P |
Strangelv | uh oh |
Strangelv | That defeats a big chunk of even having it |
kb9vqf | TQt builds its own widgets on the Qt4 base |
Strangelv | "of the purpose of |
kb9vqf | No, not really |
kb9vqf | Widgets are relatively simple |
kb9vqf | The graphics code is NOT |
kb9vqf | Qt4 still has good graphics/input device/network code |
kb9vqf | They just customized the built in widgets for mobile phones |
kb9vqf | Believe it or not, the widgets are a small amount of the Qt code |
kb9vqf | The majority of the code is in the Qt core stuff |
kb9vqf | QObject, QWidget, etc. |
Strangelv | Is it just me, or is Unity just as annoying as KDE 4? |
kb9vqf | yes it is |
kb9vqf | that;s what I was referring to earlier |
kb9vqf | I'm sitting back and thinking of all the trouble that those people who abandoned KDE3 for Gnome must be having right now.... |
*karsten_3 has joined #trinity-desktop | |
*nferenc has joined #trinity-desktop | |
*kb9vqf laughs quietly to himself | |
Strangelv | Linus, et al. abondoned KDE for Gnome to get away from KDE 4 |
edakiri | you can ask me. That's what I mostly did. |
Strangelv | MAybe we need a porody of one of teh 'always come back to teh basics' poster, although we're NOT the basic GUI. We're the advanced one. |
kb9vqf | And the KDE4 style of computing fell right back in their laps :) |
kb9vqf | If anything, this shows the problems with the "run and hide" solution to a problem |
kb9vqf | Rather than making their voices heard, a lot of KDE users just ran to Gnome instead |
edakiri | I thought, "I'll try to be a beta tester and early adopter of KDE4." Bad idea! Even now, it does not all run well on Debian-based distros. |
kb9vqf | problem is, that makes KDE4 look like it did something right, as only vocal supporters are left |
kb9vqf | so of course Gnome will pick up on that and make Gnome 3 look like KDE4 |
kb9vqf | s/look/act/g |
kb9vqf | We need a "Take control of your computer again!" poster :) |
kb9vqf | rather than letting it control you |
Strangelv | At least the vocal supportes of KDE 4 aren't as venomous as they were towards those who dared to disagree with them as they were around the time Kubuntu came out with 4.1 |
kb9vqf | that is primarily because a lot of the people who disagreed are no longer KDE users |
edakiri | Well, I was in a gnome3 channel and they seemed to be somewhat aware that they did not exactly wish to repeat KDE4's ways, particularly in regards to reliability. |
Strangelv | ...or am I just not running into their writings as much anymore? |
kb9vqf | so it's no longer a problem for them, and they become less venemous |
kb9vqf | edakiri: Well, they've made a reliable mess |
kb9vqf | they seem to have repeated the KDE4 GUI idea |
edakiri | Well, there is nothing which can import kaddressbook files well, which is why I did not go pure gnome. |
kb9vqf | I can't help but wonder why everyone wants to dumb down the desktop |
kb9vqf | why can't we have the best of both worlds, instead of forcing power users back to the command line |
kb9vqf | linux is losing its focus IMHO |
Strangelv | ::'s opinion is never offered humbly. |
edakiri | kb9vqf: are you mainly speaking of gnome Shell? |
kb9vqf | Gnome and KDE4 both |
kb9vqf | Gnome Unity/3.0 that is |
kb9vqf | If people want a Mac, they will buy a Mac |
Strangelv | Unity is Grome 3? |
kb9vqf | Pretty close |
kb9vqf | IIRC |
kb9vqf | At least the same UI ideas are present |
kb9vqf | Unity may have added 3D acceleration |
edakiri | I think Unity is mostly the Ubuntu Netbook UI. |
edakiri | or borrows much from that line. |
*kb9vqf does not keep up with Gnome much these days | |
kb9vqf | I may have the name wrong |
kb9vqf | Gnome 3.0 is what I am referring to |
kb9vqf | The next version past 2.x |
kb9vqf | obviously I don't know the codename |
*Strangelv ponders pointing to TDE 3.5 as an immediate next destination after KDE 3.5 -> KDE 4.1 immediatly to Gnome 2 then to Gnome 3.0 then immediately to Unity | |
Strangelv | "Want a real desktop environment again? Come back home from the Basics. |
kb9vqf | You have half an idea there at least |
kb9vqf | "Tired of your computer controlling you? Take charge with Trinity 3.6!" |
kb9vqf | s/you/your life/g |
kb9vqf | s/charge/charge again/g |
Strangelv | What are teh milestones for 3.6? |
Strangelv | or is that with CMake and Tqt? |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | TQt4 compilability |
kb9vqf | which implies CMake support |
kb9vqf | Note that I don't expect 3.6 to work reliably under Qt4, just to compile under Qt4 |
kb9vqf | as I mentioned in the meeting |
kb9vqf | We will stick with Qt3 for at least the next few releases |
kb9vqf | which means I may need to add Qt3 to our official SVN, but I will jump off that bridge when I come to it |
kb9vqf | I would also like to see a majority of the bugs fixed, but that is going to be hard while CMake is still being ported |
*Xu_R|School has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | It would be a good idea to come up with a nice advertising blitz/campaign in the mean time |
kb9vqf | so that when 3.6 is done we can hit Trinity's advantages over KDE4/Gnome3 hard |
kb9vqf | I know we have some Gnome/KDE4 users here that may be able to help in that regard |
kb9vqf | as they can honestly compare the desktop environments |
Strangelv | Xu_R: how did you do the Natty upgrade? My test went a bit differlently than your description |
Xu_R|School | Strangelv: install `update-manager` |
Xu_R|School | then run it |
Xu_R|School | when it asks you for a new version of ubuntu, upgrade from there |
Strangelv | Yes, that's definitely not what I did |
Xu_R|School | Strangelv: *you need to use the ubuntu distribution upgrade tool* |
*Strangelv tested out the directons he read about online about the installation disc's upgrade option. The test results were.. informative. | |
Strangelv | We need to warn people away from using that option |
Xu_R|School | Strangelv: how about a news item on the front page? |
Xu_R|School | kb9vqf: ^ |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | sounds good |
kb9vqf | BUT |
kb9vqf | we should have the proper installation procedure on the Wiki first |
kb9vqf | so that it can be referenced in a positive manner in the news release |
kb9vqf | otherwise it will make Ubuntu's problem look like our problem :-P |
Xu_R|School | kb9vqf: lol. |
kb9vqf | want to handle the Wiki article for me? |
kb9vqf | I have not upgraded to Natty myself |
kb9vqf | and do not plan to due to the Natty kernel instability |
kb9vqf | I usually give Ubuntu some time to settle after release |
Strangelv | I'm trying to avoid the opposite mistake |
kb9vqf | Xu_R|School: ^^^^^ |
Xu_R|School | kb9vqf: sure, I have time right now :) |
kb9vqf | OK, thanks |
Strangelv | Jpgrading from Jaunty was likely no messier than undoing the bad Natty upgrade will be |
kb9vqf | just poke me with the link when you're done |
kb9vqf | Make it as detailed (hand-holding) as possible |
Strangelv | I may not hive time to try to duplicate the update-manager method |
Strangelv | "today |
*Strangelv also has a URL he's not wanting to post to a logged location, so he whispers | |
edakiri | Having tried a few Ubuntus, I'm guessing the LTS ones are less buggy. |
Strangelv | Same location as before, just with a slightly longer and different set of wallpapers |
Strangelv | The problem I ran into with teh LTS I tried was that upgrading from it was a pain |
kb9vqf | edakiri: Not always |
kb9vqf | Maverick is rock solid for me |
kb9vqf | Natty is not yet :-/ |
Xu_R|School | kb9vqf: should be good enough for most people: http://trinitydesktop.org/wiki/bin/view/Documentation/DistroUpgrade_Ubuntu1010-1104 |
kb9vqf | OK, can anyone confirm that the instructions on that page function properly? |
kb9vqf | Strangelv: ^^^^^ |
*kb9vqf wants to be sure before issuing a news release | |
Strangelv | Sorry, been trying to reduce the number of tasks I need to be doing. So despite getting rid of one of them I've gained two |
Strangelv | Needs to mention that the CD upgrade will not work (it also shows only two lines of output at one time when you have it set to show you anything at all, making it trivially easy to miss things taht are important) |
Strangelv | As for confirming, I'm nsot suer I'm going to get Jaunty reinstalled to my notebook today to test the upgrahde again |
Strangelv | Which component handles wallpaper? kdeartwork? |
kb9vqf | kdebase |
kb9vqf | there are a limited number of slots |
kb9vqf | kdeartwork I think has "extra" wallpapers |
Strangelv | submitted |
*Strangelv tries to remember some of the ones he needed to adda year ago | |
Strangelv | enough open apps on a given desktop and alt-tab ceases to be 1005 useful |
*Strangelv tires to think of a better way to phrase that | |
*Z_God has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | OK, Natty information has been posted to http://www.trinitydesktop.org/ |
*Strangelv ponders a good size for a downsampled screenshot | |
*Xu_R has joined #trinity-desktop | |

*cfaust has joined #trinity-desktop | |
*K`zan has joined #trinity-desktop | |
*cfaust has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | hey Strangelv |
*Strangelv wonders if his tiling wallpaper constructions hurt MutantTurkey's eyes | |
*Strangelv whispers the not for public visibility URL to MutantTurkey | |
MutantTurkey | hmmmm? |
MutantTurkey | ok i see |
MutantTurkey | Strangelv: haha what is this? |
MutantTurkey | surely my eyes do hurt |
Strangelv | Which ones hurt the least and how might I make them pleasenter? |
MutantTurkey | wait what is this for? |
Strangelv | TDE desktop wallpaper |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: same, my eyes hurt with them X_x |
Strangelv | These aren't stock images -- I created them within the past week or so specificalyl to propoes for wallpaper |
MutantTurkey | Strangelv: they look like windows 95 wallpapers. |
*Strangelv notes that it could be worse. No one has called tehm boring | |
Strangelv | L421_all_r1.png has gotten the most positive comments |
Strangelv | L424_004.png is my current desktop 1 wallpaper |
Xu_R | Strangelv: can you whisper the link again? |
Strangelv | I'm wondering how http://www.dementionality.com/tqtde/L424_012_fix1.png could be painful |
MutantTurkey | that is the least painful |
Xu_R | really? that was the most painful for me >_> |
Strangelv | I'm thinking of re-rendering it. My first vesion of it looked better, but had some technical issues. That said, I'm not completely happy with it and am thinking of starting over from scratch to do a different brick wall |
Xu_R | Strangelv: not too crazy about the designs, dude. |
Strangelv | what sorts of things do you look for? |
Xu_R | something light; fresh. |
*Strangelv 's wallpaper is usually something he's working on, so maybe he's not looking for the right things | |
Xu_R | hmm... i had a link before.. |
Strangelv | The default wallpaper for Natty Ubuntu is perhaps the very antithesis of wmhat I personally look for... |
Xu_R | Strangelv: from over at unitylinux: http://forum.unity-linux.org/attachment.php?aid=230 |
Xu_R | http://forum.unity-linux.org/attachment.php?aid=229 |
Xu_R | if you can't see the links right now, it's probably cause of DNS issues - wait a few hours and try again |
Strangelv | I must admit those a a different type than what I've been doing. All teh examples I have right now are tiling. |
*Strangelv never expected L424_085.png to be described as hard on the eyes | |
*Strangelv 's desktop 4 wallpaper is L424_085.png | |
*Strangelv wonders what the reactions is in here for such KDE era staples as Time For Lunch | |
samelian | kb9vqf: in debian packages exists suport for riokarma, in amarok? |
samelian | the module libamarok_riokarma-mediadevice.so exists? |
samelian | seems that riokarma needs mono |
kb9vqf | samelian: I don't see it |
samelian | so I assume that riokarma support is not supported anymore |
samelian | but daap? |
samelian | this need ruby |
samelian | the module for daap is named libamarok_daap-mediadevice.so |
kb9vqf | .soname? |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | that is part of the ubuntu package |
samelian | ok |
samelian | riokarma is compilable, but I'm not sure how to link it to /usr/lib/karma-sharp/karma-sharp.dll |
samelian | linker just ignore it |
samelian | i receive linker errors like riokarmamediadevice.cpp:(.text+0x72d): undefined reference to `lk_karma_write_smalldb' |
kb9vqf | I have no idea either |
kb9vqf | since it isn't part of Ubuntu just leave it for now |

kb9vqf | yes |
kb9vqf | and I know it builds, so... |
samelian | pls tell me version of gpod needed by libamarok_ipod-mediadevice.so |
samelian | if I correct remember, newer versions of gpod are not compatible with amarok |
kb9vqf | samelian: There is no compilation error |
kb9vqf | I found the one #define that was incorrect |
kb9vqf | so it should work with the latest gpod |
kb9vqf | if I am wrong please let me know |
samelian | ok |
samelian | kb9vqf: yes, is building against latest libgpod, 0.8.0 |
kb9vqf | good |
samelian | kb9vqf: note that I change WITH_LIBGPOD to WITH_GPOD, for consistence with the rest of flags |
kb9vqf | that's fine |

kb9vqf | samelian: Did you modify dbus-tqt in KDE SVN without pushing the same changes to trinitydesktop.org SVN? |
kb9vqf | doesn't look like it |
kb9vqf | hmmm |
kb9vqf | samelian: You didn't activate dbus-tqt.pc in the dbus-tqt CMakeLists.txt on trinitydesktop.org SVN |
kb9vqf | it's commented out |
kb9vqf | I activated it and am rebuilding dbus-tqt now |
*cfaust has joined #trinity-desktop | |
samelian | kb9vqf: I commited some changes for dbus-tqt |
kb9vqf | so did I |
kb9vqf | hmmm |
kb9vqf | rebuilding..... |
kb9vqf | samelian: Please don't commit dbus-tqt changes to KDE SVN |
kb9vqf | upstream is trinitydesktop.org SVN |
kb9vqf | please commit your changes there |
samelian | we will not commit anymore to kde svn? |
samelian | I missed this decision, i guess |
kb9vqf | Only for dbus-tqt and dbus-tqt-1 |
samelian | aha |
samelian | but without dbus-tqt and dbus-tqt-1 we cannot build some packages |
kb9vqf | I keep KDE SVn in sync, but upstream development for those two is on the trinitydesktop.org svn |
kb9vqf | so commit your changes to trinitydesktop.org as well as KDE SVN |
kb9vqf | but I will always overwrite KDE SVN with whatever is in trinitydesktop.org SVN |
samelian | i'm not sure how to commit in both places |
kb9vqf | well, commit it to trinitydesktop.org and I'll sync it with KDE SVN |
samelian | ok |
kb9vqf | thanks |

marcelC | hello! |
marcelC | dose anyone know why kde 3.5 was discontinued? |
marcelC | and how can I install trinity in this new ubuntu 11.04 |
marcelC | shou I compile it? |
edakiri | marcelC: you can compile if you wish. |
edakiri | i don't know whether there exists a compiled version |
affect | kde 3.5 was discontinued because it was too straightforward, functional, configurable and nice to use |
affect | today's software has to be 3d, shiny, non-configurable, difficult to use and resource-intensive |
affect | that's the tendency |
*Space_Man has joined #trinity-desktop | |
edakiri | affect: i think he meant kde3.5 discontinued for TDE, not why discontinued for kde4 |
affect | it's a pity in that case |
affect | since it was really hard to type those long sentences |

krike | I hope that the kde-i18n package will be separated individual packages such as kde-i18n-fi-3.5.12.tar* |
krike | 360MiB is very large to handle between disks. |

backwoodsman | anyone awake here? |
kb9vqf | yes |
backwoodsman | got a problem installing Trinity on Natty. Got 13 uninstallable dependencies, so ran apt-get -f, now there's only one, libpoppler-qt2 |
kb9vqf | Odd |
*kb9vqf does not have a lot of control over Natty at the moment | |
backwoodsman | this is a brand new install of Natty, updated but nothing else changed. Oh, I did install Synaptic but nothing else. |
kb9vqf | the Trinity release cycle is offset from Ubuntu right now, and I can't rebuild the Maverick packages for Natty (they just won't work) |
kb9vqf | you may need to pull libpoppler-qt2 from the Maverick repository |
kb9vqf | (manually download & install it) |
kb9vqf | http://packages.ubuntu.com |
backwoodsman | I'll find it and see if it'll install, back in a while |
kb9vqf | http://packages.ubuntu.com/maverick/libpoppler-qt2 |
kb9vqf | ok |
backwoodsman | I was confused earlier, I still have the 13 problems, 8 uninstallable and 5 "not going to be installed." Is this what's expected? |
backwoodsman | is this going to work, or should I stick with Maverick for a while? |
kb9vqf | personally I would stick with Maverick |
kb9vqf | I have no experience with Natty myself so I can't help muchn |
kb9vqf | *much |
kb9vqf | Xu_R upgraded to Natty AFAIK |
kb9vqf | he may be able to help you more than I can |
kb9vqf | we just don't have the manpower to stay on a 6 month release like Ubuntu does |
*Strangelv sees the build status for amarok-trinity - 4:3.5.13-0ubuntu7+r1230334+pr181 and cheers | |
*Strangelv may or may not make an upgrade test today. He has other tasks that also need to be attended to that would tistrat him from trying to carefulyl remember exactly what he did | |
*field_it has joined #trinity-desktop | |
backwoodsman | I'll stay with Mav for now. Don't have time to try to make it work, and don't care about running the latest release. I just need my computers to work well with a minimum of time & hassle, and not require everyone to learn a new interface for no better reason than that it's new. |
backwoodsman | by the way, really appreciate your work on Trinity. |
*edakiri has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | thanks, glad to hear it :) |
kb9vqf | we're working hard to get the build system repaired so that new packages for Natty/etc. can be built |

*Strangelv : MikeD says, "Does KDE/Trinity not allow icon shadows?" | |
Space_Man | the icons would have to stick out from the screen to make a shadow! |
kb9vqf | The text under the icons can have a shadow |
Strangelv | "The question came up because of Samelin's request to reduce the contrast with one of the proposed wallpapers because it was hard to see his icons |
Strangelv | I only showed him three of them, not the entire directory |
*Strangelv looks at 'use the following program for drawing the background' and ponders pointing it to a screensaver, but needs to be afk for a few | |
*backwoodsman has joined #trinity-desktop | |
backwoodsman | dumb question time... I can't figure out how to make the icons in the K menu a little smaller.. Any help? |
*backwoodsman has joined #trinity-desktop | |
backwoodsman | got disconnected for a couple minutes, don't know if anyone responded to my question? |
*kb9vqf never had to do that, but he would suggest looking at the icons module in KControl | |
backwoodsman | tried that, none of them apply to the menu |
kb9vqf | try posting a question to the mailing list |
kb9vqf | it is possible that the functionality you want does not (yet) exist |

s15y | Hi, anybody able to resize knotes notes? (I'm using knotes-trinity 4:3.5.12-0debian7+r1178442) |
s15y | (sometimes, resize button in lower right corner does not appear) |
*strangelv has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | s15y: I've seen the same behaviour. Most of the time activating another window (clicking on it) and then clicking on the note will make the resize handle reappear |
kb9vqf | (and yes, this is an old KDE3.5.10 bug AFAIK) |
*Strangelv thinks of the age old cry 'we need to throw away our old buggy codebase and start all over from scratch with a too-long-delayed, feature incomplete new buggy codebase' | |
Strangelv | Proderly modular, it doesn't matter how buggy it is. Replace one object or limrary at a time with not so buggy |
Strangelv | "but I don't know what the case is with what we inherited from KDE |
*Strangelv is busy falling asleep looking at printing and fulfillment solutions and failing to think of the third part he's needing | |
kb9vqf | What we inherited was nearly feature complete and quite stable |
kb9vqf | ~200 bugs is really not bad at all considering the size of the codebas |
kb9vqf | *codebase |
kb9vqf | And I have never had any problem with the modularity--in fact, KDE3 is one of the most modular (in sensible areas) projects I have ever worked on :-/ |
MutantTurkey | ~200 bugs for a code base of like 3+ gigs is ridiculously good |
MutantTurkey | it just happens everything i need specifically has a bug or two :p |
*kb9vqf notes that life is often like that :-P{ | |
MutantTurkey | :P |
MutantTurkey | I got offered a 40hours a week doing paid computer internship! :D |
*Z_God has joined #trinity-desktop | |
*Space_Man has joined #trinity-desktop | |
s15y | kb9vqf: thanks, right. I found several references for this problem both in KDE 3 and 4, one with a fix reference #951879 https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=189050 but I could not look at the commit. |
s15y | For me, the trick is to switch desktops in order to have the resize handle appear. |

bimal | I am going to install KDE3 on my Ubuntu 10.10 system.. But I am getting error for unmet dependencies |
bimal | Here is the code : http://paste.ubuntu.com/607385/ |
bimal | anyone help me on this ? |
edakiri | bimal: kde3 or trinity? |
bimal | trinity |
bimal | I have followed this instructions http://www.trinitydesktop.org/installation.php#ubuntu |
bimal | used four lines from "For Maverick" box |
edakiri | bimal: I would run the install with aptitude and view why it says they will not be installed. |
edakiri | i think the package is not named kde3 anymore. |
edakiri | the package names have 'trinity' in them. |
bimal | <edakiri> I have tried "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-default-settings-trinity kubuntu-desktop-trinity" but still no luck |
bimal | "E: Unable to locate package kubuntu-default-settings-trinity" |
edakiri | aptitude |
bimal | "E: Unable to locate package kubuntu-desktop-trinity" |
bimal | oh ok |
bimal | aptitude is also giving errors : http://paste.ubuntu.com/607387/ |
bimal | <edakiri> the command want to remove UBUNTU-DESKTOP, SUDO, KUBUNTU-DESKTOP etc key packages |
edakiri | bimal: yes. |
bimal | edakiri: For your information, I have added KUBUNTU PPA to get latest KDE4 .. is this problem? |
edakiri | i think so. |
edakiri | i presume so, if it causes you to remove kubuntu desktop. |
edakiri | Running kde4 applications is not a problem, except for kaboom |
bimal | edakiri: Ok I am removing PPA and revert back to original KDE packages |
bimal | edakiri: Will try again to install trinity after this process done |

samelian | you installed tqt? |

affect | lol |
affect | $ gcc --version |
affect | gcc (GCC) 4.6.0 20110429 (prerelease) |
samelian | affect: if i'm not wrong, there are some problems with gcc 4.6 |
affect | dang |
samelian | your qt3 is build with gcc 4.6? |
Strangelv | :: gets 4.4.5, but, then, he's still running the Meerkat |
affect | duno, it's a binary from arch repo |
affect | switched from gentoo a while ago |
samelian | ask Baho or David Rankin about building qt3/tqt with gcc 4.6 |
affect | https://projects.savoirfairelinux.com/issues/5438 |
affect | I googled for that ptrdiff_t |
affect | error and found this one |
affect | in their patch they added the <stddef.h> |
affect | include* |
affect | so I added it to line 153 of ConfigureChecks.cmake |
affect | and that check succeeded |
affect | got a different error now tho: Your Qt3 is not patched for compatibility with tqtinterface |
affect | xD |
samelian | as I said, ask Baho or David about compiling on arch |
samelian | they working to fix these problems, as far I know |
affect | oh, I added that include to the second test and it succeeded too |
affect | great |
affect | who's baho and david? |
samelian | trinity maintaners for arch |
samelian | they are very active on trinity-devel@lists.pearsoncomputing.net |
affect | ok I'll see if I find some spare time |
affect | basically I just wanted to rebuild amarok and see if I get a list of engines then |
affect | but well, whatever |
samelian | kb9vqf: you know if on ubuntu/debian, kopete come with jingle support? |

Ddpbf | hi to all |
Ddpbf | i am wondering could i instal kde3 on kubuntu 11.04? |
Space_Man | Ddpbf: http://trinitydesktop.org/wiki/bin/view/Documentation/DistroUpgrade_Ubuntu1010-1104 describes the 10.10 to 11.04 upgrade |
Ddpbf | I saw that, but it's not my case |
Space_Man | I assume adding the trinity sources to adept, updating and then installing trinity-desktop would work |
Ddpbf | i have fresh kubuntu natty |
Ddpbf | and i want to add kde 3 on top of it |
Space_Man | looks like maverick is the most recent source available http://www.trinitydesktop.org/installation.php#ubuntu |
Ddpbf | I read that maverick rep works on natty |
Ddpbf | an I add it, but it have some conflicts |
Ddpbf | it vants to remove sudo |

kb9vqf | Seems I was able to get Automake working for a number of non-core packages |

K`zan | You folks know that the repositories have been 404 for the better part of two weeks now? |
Space_Man | which repositories are 404? |
Space_Man | the first ubuntu repo on http://www.trinitydesktop.org/installation.php#ubuntu "deb http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity/ubuntu maverick main" works here |
Space_Man | http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity/ubuntu redirects to http://mirror2.tokra.lv/trinity/ubuntu/ |
K`zan | Ah, I let the netbook upgrade to ?11.04? and that is probably the problem, checking now to see which repos are failing. |
kb9vqf | yes, you have to use maverick, not natty |
kb9vqf | we can't build native Natty packages yet |
kb9vqf | (getting our build system updated to state-of-the-art at present :)) |
K`zan | Yup, it is trying for natty, will have to edit those, sorry about this :-(. |
K`zan | Actually, I am not having any problems so just let it sit until that comes up? |
kb9vqf | if you want, that's fine |
kb9vqf | it will be several months yet AFAIK |
K`zan | Not a problem :). |
kb9vqf | our release cycle is not synced with Ubuntu any more :) |
K`zan | All doing fine so no worries. |
kb9vqf | we've switched to a 12 month for now |
kb9vqf | Good to hear :) |

msb | Hi! I'm using KDE3.5.10 with OpenSuse 11.4. I've been told that the KDE4 developers looked at the KDE3 code and found that it was such a mess that it would take 10 to 15 years to recode properly, so they were forced to totally rewrite KDE as KDE4 with incredibly complex "themes", a desktop-pager with the desktop names unreadable, renaming everything as "plasma" whatsits, forcing the use of the phonon audio system that doesn't work |
msb | on some machines, and generally making the whole system a godawful mess. Would the KDE3 code really require 10 to 15 years to redo, or is that just a lie in service of whatever ulterior motives they had in making KDE4 the confusing mess that it is? |
msb | ... confusing and dysfunctional mess... |
MutantTurkey | hey all |
MutantTurkey | msb: sorry let me read that whole thing. |
MutantTurkey | msb: yes it was basically a big push for more bloat |
MutantTurkey | basically the same thing that is happening with GNOME3, instead of sticking with the tried and true kde system, they went with an entire rewrite, which frankly is slow and bloaty |
msb | MutantTurkey: And I think not only more bloat and lots of confusion, but crippling it for power users who use lots of desktops like I do. |
MutantTurkey | the bloat cripples us all. |
MutantTurkey | Rewrites are supposed to help, not hinder, which is what they did. |
MutantTurkey | So that's us :) using trinity. |
msb | So are the Trinity folks redoing some of the KDE3 code to make it more neat and clean? Or is that even necessary? |
MutantTurkey | Yes there is code that is not up to par, definitely, which is alot of the legacy stuff. |
MutantTurkey | our roadmap looks like this: CMake port, then update to Udev and get rid of hal, and switch to Qt4 |
MutantTurkey | there's alot of information on the website |
MutantTurkey | so half of what our goals are to do is get rid of that legacy stuff that is holding us back. |
msb | BTW, I use a few of the KDE4 apps -- konsole, system monitor, and klipper (because I can load the clipboard from a bash script using qdbus). |
MutantTurkey | yeah, infact alot of us do end up using those few apps that we really need |
MutantTurkey | msb: I've gotta run out for a few hours. Any questions just poke samelian or kb9vqf |
msb | MutantTurkey: Thanks! |
MutantTurkey | no problem :) |
*kb9vqf notes that the "mess" shold really have been stated correctly....in fact, it was "oh yikes, the Qt4 API changed so much that the KDE3.5 code cannot be adapted in anything less than 5 to 10 years" ;-) | |
kb9vqf | there is nothing really wrong with the Trinity source; it just doesn't fit into the (bloated and restricted) Qt4 API very well :-P |
msb | kb9vqf: Is it really necessary to convert to Qt4? |
*K`zan has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Space_Man | they could wait and use qt5! |
*Mias has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | we're converting to TQt |
kb9vqf | not Qtx |
kb9vqf | (where x==3,4,5,6...) |
kb9vqf | TQt can then be altered to run on any Qt version needed |
kb9vqf | it's our future-proofing ;-) |
MutantTurkey | unless they significantly change the api |
kb9vqf | they already did |
kb9vqf | tqt provides a lot of Qt3 calls and methods of doing things that are just not available in Qt4+ |
kb9vqf | we want to stay current with Qt for its input and output device support--that's it |
kb9vqf | so TQt provides the needed helper classes and widgets to allow us to take advantage of the newer I/O classes |
MutantTurkey | right. |
MutantTurkey | I am just working on gtk3 and finding it deplorable. |
kb9vqf | :) |
MutantTurkey | It's so shoddy I can't even find information on it easily. quite below average as far as I can make do. |
kb9vqf | Linux is in bad shape these days.... :-( |
MutantTurkey | I know. |
MutantTurkey | I would use Qt if they had C bindings! |
msb | Suppose it was decided that the priorities for Trinity would be (in no particular order): High functionality for power-users, which means a good readable desktop-pager applet (among other things). Runs on the largest possible set of machines, which means ALSA sound and (although this is normally outside the purview of the DE) Sax2 or the equivalent for adjusting the software display to match the actual display screen, and for |
msb | implementing things like center button simulation for two-button mice. (continued) |
MutantTurkey | msb: Suppose it was decided before we can actually work on things that effect users, we need to get the backend crap up and running. |
msb | Theming to be limited to selecting a solid color (via the usual color selection widget) for various window elements and NOT mapping any pattern -- tiger stripes, clouds, etc -- onto anything. The user could specify a background image png, etc, for each desktop -- that's all. |
msb | With that limit on theming would it be necessary to utilize any theming facilities beyond those of qt3? |
msb | MutantTurkey: Backend stuff first is a good idea, but deciding on an overall guiding philosophy for the system as early as possible may save a lot of recoding later on. |
kb9vqf | Configurability is our primary goal here :) |
msb | These ideas I'm suggesting are intended specifically to remedy the bad shape that Linux is in today. |
msb | kb9vqf: Configurability in what respect? |
MutantTurkey | In every respect! |
MutantTurkey | At this point KDE3.5 is the most configurable system around |
kb9vqf | I should be able to change any item I don't like in the desktop itself to something else |
kb9vqf | e.g. if I don't like the Kickoff icon, I can change that :) |
kb9vqf | There are much better examples |
kb9vqf | All this configurability combined makes the user able to customize the system to his or her exact tastes |
kb9vqf | (rather than relying on a stock or precreated theme that only comes close) |
msb | But making _everything_ totally configurable makes the configuration UI extremely complex. Like KDE4. |
msb | e.g., if you want to be able to make your window borders tiger-striped. That way madness lies! |
msb | That is unnecessary for using the computer via the DE to get actual work (or entertainment) done. |
kb9vqf | nope |
kb9vqf | I think you are wrong there :) |
kb9vqf | The problem with KDE4 is that you *cannot* configure the system the way you want it |
kb9vqf | If you don't like the window theme, tough rocks, you have to program one :-P |
kb9vqf | *program a new one |
msb | kb9vqf: But you can configure KDE4 much more than KDE3. You just have to understand the very complex theme system and learn how to use some huge graphic program. |
kb9vqf | Uhh, no |
MutantTurkey | I concur with kb9vqf here. |
kb9vqf | By that logic I can make any computer do anything |
kb9vqf | I just have to program my own custom OS |
MutantTurkey | KDE4 has left the choices up to the developers only |
msb | And maybe even include bits of code in with the theme. |
MutantTurkey | KDE3 makes it easy to make changes |
MutantTurkey | KDE4, you would have to write a hundred manuals and spend you whole life studying to understand. |
kb9vqf | A simple configuration option, e..g under Windows->Borders->Advanced->Border Background is tasteful, easy to find, and the end user can change it with very little effort |
kb9vqf | and without gcc installed ;-) |
kb9vqf | I think what we are arguing about is the options *exposed to the average end user* |
msb | OK, but the border background has to be limited to some solid #RGB color, not a graphic pattern. |
kb9vqf | No |
kb9vqf | Use a file selection box and a couple of radio buttons |
kb9vqf | along with a color picker |
kb9vqf | all in one group box |
kb9vqf | under the Qt3 widget styles, that might take up 100px of vertical space |
kb9vqf | probably less |
kb9vqf | and the user can change the system to his or her tastes |
kb9vqf | without having to reprogram/recompile it :-P |
msb | But then to specify arbitrary patterns for for whatever elements the user wants means that those graphics files have to go into the theme struct (or database) along with the much simpler RGB color numbers. |
kb9vqf | so? People have Core 2 Duo processors with advanced graphics chips, not a 286 with a VGA framebuffer ;-) |
msb | And it is not necessary! Nobody needs that to make their computer functional. If they want art they can select a Picasso for the desktop background. |
kb9vqf | maybe you want XFCE |
kb9vqf | it sounds like it does what you want (and nothing more) |
msb | No, I want a simple utilitarian DE that will run on all machines and that can be created and maintained by the limited number of developers that the Trinity project is likely to attract. |
kb9vqf | I will guarantee this: when Windows is more configurable than Linux is, people will drop Linux like a hot potato |
kb9vqf | People put up with Linux's faults because they get something in return |
kb9vqf | if Windows is offering them more choice, then the cost/benefit ratio tilts in its favor |
kb9vqf | More off-the-shelf apps, etc. all add up to equal more choice |
msb | But I will guarantee this: Microsoft, with its infinite resources, can always build in more BS/useless theme configurability than any Linux DE. |
kb9vqf | OK |
kb9vqf | mayb |
kb9vqf | *maybe |
MutantTurkey | yes, XFCE sounds like it |
MutantTurkey | no options, just works Ok, nothing good, nothing special, totally mediocre |
kb9vqf | yep |
MutantTurkey | haha I use it :) |
kb9vqf | Linux is about choice |
kb9vqf | if you like it...use it! |
MutantTurkey | exactly! |
msb | If we correct Linux's actual faults -- not running right on any machine the X.org autoconfig can't deal with, sound system that doesn't work on all machines, etc., then Linux will be attractive to intelligent people who want their computer to work, rather than want it to look purty. |
kb9vqf | Or maybe I should be proposing one standard desktop environment...with 16 colors.... ;-) |
kb9vqf | Maybe, but when the average consumer starts window shopping, he or she will go with the OS that looks acceptable |
kb9vqf | If Linux is just darn ugly and looks like it came from 1990, then it won't be chosen |
kb9vqf | period |
MutantTurkey | and basically does... |
kb9vqf | It's not that different from people's beloved XP |
MutantTurkey | But I love linux anyways, all for it's crappy ALSA support, crappy drivers, awful hardware problems. I still love it! |
kb9vqf | So do I, or I wouldn't be here :) |
kb9vqf | Linux has always been about choice |
kb9vqf | configurability |
kb9vqf | and I would argue complexity :) |
msb | Me too. But we really need to think clearly here, and not throw around a lot of rhetoric. |
kb9vqf | So far, for your needs and desires, I seriously recommend XFCE |
msb | Linux is about simplicity, e.g., through modularity, NOT complexity. |
kb9vqf | Simple == limited |
MutantTurkey | if( linux == simple) return(0); |
kb9vqf | If I wanted simple I would buy a Mac |
kb9vqf | Now try running a business with multiple screens and 100 windows up on that mac |
kb9vqf | without going insane |
kb9vqf | oh, and it should provide me with VoIP phones, a Web server, a router, and some other stuff thrown in as well |
msb | This is very disappointing. I had hoped, since KDE3 is much simpler for the user to deal with than KDE4, that Trinity was not going to have useless eye-candy configurability beyond that of, e.g., kde3.5.10. |
kb9vqf | show me where Trinity is more complex |
kb9vqf | the general idea in good UI design is to hide the advanced (i.e. little used) options, not get rid of them completele |
msb | You folks want to make _every_ visual element configurable with graphic patterns, not just RGB colors. |
kb9vqf | *completely |
kb9vqf | and I don't mean hide as in hard to find, I mean so that they are not shown by default but can be found intuitively very quickly if the user wants to change them |
kb9vqf | so? |
kb9vqf | what's wrong with that again? |
kb9vqf | get some screenshots from Trinity users--no two desktops will be the same |
kb9vqf | the main differences will be in the configured visual elements |
kb9vqf | which ones are shown, how big they are, what they look like, etc. |
msb | No matter how much of that you program in, Microsoft will do stuff even more fancy (and useless). 3D, pulsing to music, sensing the user's brainwaves. None of it useful in the slightest for ease of use of the computer. |
*kb9vqf has better things to do than argue here | |
kb9vqf | suffice it to say, we do not intend to change the "feel" of Trinity at all |
msb | All this BS appeals to computer-illiterate people! |
kb9vqf | And if I want window borders that are very small? |
kb9vqf | is that too much configuration? |
kb9vqf | where do you draw the line? |
kb9vqf | we can go further back into the past |
msb | No, that's just another selectable number. KDE3 has that now. |
kb9vqf | how about a maximum desktop size? |
MutantTurkey | :) |
kb9vqf | it gets stupid really fast |
kb9vqf | one configuration option takes *MAYBE* 50 lines of code total |
kb9vqf | why argue about it? |
kb9vqf | why force something on the user that he or she wants to do differently? |
msb | Because: 1. any more than what KDE3 already has now is useless. and 2. we can never successfully compete with Microsoft in this arena. |
kb9vqf | In your opinion. There are things that I would do differently! |
kb9vqf | and other users have other ideas as well |
kb9vqf | I'm glad it fits you perfectly like a glove |
kb9vqf | My glove has holes |
msb | You say you don't want bloat. But all this useless configurability IS bloat. |
kb9vqf | Then why is KDE4 so slow? |
kb9vqf | It's not that configurable |
kb9vqf | If we're removing configurability then I will buy Windows 7, take the desktop environment MS shoved down my throat (Aero), and call it a day |
kb9vqf | the cost/benefit just tilted in their favor |
msb | KDE4 is a lot more themeable than KDE3. Which makes its code and UI much more complex. |
kb9vqf | How? |
kb9vqf | Prove it |
kb9vqf | Make it look like Trinity |
kb9vqf | oh wait, you can't |
kb9vqf | Nice and themable! |
kb9vqf | It's complex for one reason alone: Qt4 did not offer classes to handle a lot of the functions that typically exist in a desktop environment because they chose to implement functions for a mobile environment |
msb | I don't want any visual configurability to be removed from KDE3. But none has to be added either (except for a separate background graphic for each desktop, if it doesn't have that already). |
kb9vqf | And if I say that I should draw the line there abitrarily, like you were earlier? |
kb9vqf | (it already has that function BTW) |
kb9vqf | what would you think then? |
kb9vqf | "No, we can't do that because it makes Trinity too complicated" |
kb9vqf | would you use this DE? |
msb | If it already has that, then yes, draw the line there. Because we do have to draw the line somewhere. |
*kb9vqf does not have time for this pointless argument | |
kb9vqf | XFCE is your best bet |
msb | I am already using KDE3.5.10 and am quite happy with it. |
msb | Does XFCE have 20 desktops, a good readable desktop-pager applet, panels that I can put anywhere, and applets that I can put where I want in the panels? |
msb | This is not a pointless argument. This discussion is at the heart of having Linux work on all machines, be easy to install and configure, have all the functionality that anyone needs to make their apps run easily, and be maintainable by a group of developers far smaller than what Microsoft can pay for. |
kb9vqf | Make a Wiki page with your ideas |
kb9vqf | We can discuss them in the next meeting |
kb9vqf | There are other devs here that agree with me |
kb9vqf | and you can present your ideas to the entire team |
kb9vqf | I don't like this "hard line that shall not be crossed" stuff |
kb9vqf | Some people use that "eye candy" to let their computer indicate to them the status of programs and other little statuses that improve the usability of the window manager for them |
kb9vqf | Or some use it to overcome visual difficulties |
kb9vqf | and there are others that just don't like staring at an ugly box all day long |
kb9vqf | (yes, you can like "pretty" things and not want to give up functionality to get them) |
kb9vqf | msb: These heated discussions are a good thing as it allows us to hash out what is expected, but this is not the time or the place |
kb9vqf | The meeting is a far more appropriate time |
kb9vqf | hence the name "Planning Meeting" :-) |
MutantTurkey | msb: yes, bring ideas forth in a meeting! |
MutantTurkey | Actually, Robert hasn't mentioned lately when that will be. |
kb9vqf | The build system is still messed up pretty badly |
kb9vqf | so it may be postponed |
msb | The meeting will be announced in the developers' list presumably? |
kb9vqf | Yes |
*kb9vqf notes that the *only* reason he went to an "older" window manager style was *not to give up functionality he relied on*, not to go to a simpler/older/uglier way of doing things | |
kb9vqf | IMHO the looks of Trinity should be improved *without losing ANY functionality already present* |
kb9vqf | just the looks |
kb9vqf | not the behaviour |
kb9vqf | the behaviour is near perfect |
kb9vqf | it gets out of the way when you are working and is still there when you need it |
msb | If graphical elements can be specified to change their looks in response to various program statuses then you are opening up a huge new area of configurability and code to make it work. |
kb9vqf | yes |
kb9vqf | but think of the efficiency improvement for certain workloads |
kb9vqf | things like that will start to set Trinity apart from other DEs |
kb9vqf | Our emphasis could be restated as the configurable, efficient desktop |
kb9vqf | as in any user can sit down and make it extremely efficient for his or her specific workload |
kb9vqf | instead of the cookie-cutter M$ one-size-fits-all garbage |
msb | ALGOL68 was totally orthogonal and had a two-level grammar that was so complex that no one was ever able to write a complete compiler for it. No one ever used that language to write any significant software. Because it was so configurable that its implementation was impractical. |
kb9vqf | And I'm not saying to go that far |
kb9vqf | Trinity has not yet hit a limit of that type |
kb9vqf | it is far from it |
kb9vqf | Complexity can be hidden |
msb | How does implementing all this graphical configurability improve efficiency at all? |
kb9vqf | but you have to design the software very well to make it visible when neede |
kb9vqf | *needed |
kb9vqf | This is where ergonomics come into play |
kb9vqf | What may be easy to take in at a glance for me may be different for you |
kb9vqf | I may need less prominent indicators of window position, state etc. than someone else |
kb9vqf | I might even find them distracting or feel that they get in the way |
kb9vqf | whereas the other person may find that less priminent indicators make it too hard to determine the current state of the windows, or that they can't click the reduced icons/buttons, etc. |
kb9vqf | Just an example |
msb | But in this case good ergonomics means the ability to quickly locate the window(s) of an app and their controls. Making all the window backgrounds, or labels/handles, tiger-striped or polkadotted, makes things less easy to find. |
kb9vqf | For me and you, perhaps |
kb9vqf | How about someone who has not so good vision? |
kb9vqf | Or a huge monitor? |
kb9vqf | They may way a high contrast (or custom) background |
kb9vqf | For example, I consider the "Accessible" family of themese completely unusable |
msb | Locating a specific window is more difficult with an artistic large-textured background. |
kb9vqf | I think we may not be talking about the same visual element here |
msb | What are their characteristics? |
kb9vqf | Yes, I agree, overriding all window backgrounds would be stupid |
kb9vqf | However custom window borders would be a nice idea |
msb | What a lot of naive MS-Windows users want is for everything to be colorful, pretty, flexible-wibble-wobble, etc. All of that is counterproductive for ergonomics and getting real work done easily. |
msb | Custom in what way? |
msb | What's needed in that respect is a clear indication of which window has the focus. All my window borders are grey except those of the selected window, which are blue. (I want red, but can't set it for some reason. I used to be able to with a previous version of KDE3.5. Maybe having KDE4 stuff in there is messing it up.) |
msb | If you want a custom color for the borders of the window of a particular app, I guess that would be easy to add in the area where particular apps can be set to, e.g., stay on top. |
kb9vqf | the only reason I would see for rejecting a configuration option is that it will irreperably interfere with some other component of the desktop environment |
kb9vqf | we really have not had any requests for completely stupid stuff, which is good |
kb9vqf | we just have to keep in mind that a request is probably being made for a good reason, even though you or I may not use the requested feature by choice |
kb9vqf | the overall philosophy remains the same: when possible, allow for as much configurability as practical |
kb9vqf | personally, I think the theme engine needs a good overhaul |
kb9vqf | it's not flexible enough |
kb9vqf | I was the one that added the ability to change icon sizes in the task tray |
kb9vqf | Some people would consider that feature stupid |
kb9vqf | I needed it badly for a high-res monitor |
kb9vqf | (the default icon size of 32x32 pixels ended up being microscopic) |
kb9vqf | anyway, definitely add your topics for the next meeting |
kb9vqf | Just so you know, there are more pressing concerns in my mind |
kb9vqf | I would like to standardize Linux file open/save dialogs |
kb9vqf | a big irritant for many users is the variety of poorly written dialogs that pop up, even when one DE is in use |
kb9vqf | Linux is currently running into too many of these little problems that, taken alone, are no big deal |
kb9vqf | but take them all together and you have a mess |
kb9vqf | rejecting feature requests is the last thing on my mind :) |
kb9vqf | msb: Maybe you should talk with our resident UI design expert on the trinity-devel mailing list |
kb9vqf | Kate Draven |
kb9vqf | She has done a lot of studies on who uses what how on Linux |
kb9vqf | so she may be able to help iron some of this out |
kb9vqf | A healthy discussion on the mailing list would be a good idea |
msb | kb9vqf: Thanx! |
kb9vqf | np :) |
kb9vqf | I should have suggested that earlier |
*kb9vqf forgets important things now and then | |
msb | I looked at the XFCE website. It may have multiple desktops (workspaces), but they don't mention or show the switcher applet. |
kb9vqf | it may not have one |
kb9vqf | you may have to use xpager (not sure if that's the right name) |
kb9vqf | XFCE is waaayyy too limited for my tastes :) |
msb | I hacked the KDE4 desktop-pager to make the names readable about 2 years ago, so was using kde4. But the latest version insists on Phonon, which does not work on my fairly recent ASUS mobo. |
msb | So I'm back to KDE 3.5.10. |
kb9vqf | got the patch for KDE4? |
kb9vqf | I (or someone else) can backport it |
msb | For the readable pager? |
kb9vqf | yep\ |
kb9vqf | just post it to a feature request bug report |
kb9vqf | we'll probably need to make some changes, mainly to add a configuration option to enable/disable the new readout, but at least it can be looked at |
msb | It's not a patch, just recoded the applet with fixed font size and FG/BG color, and no window outlines. |
kb9vqf | Ah |
kb9vqf | So really we should just have a tips and tricks section somewhere on the Wiki |
kb9vqf | if someone wants to improve the legibility of the pager, then follow the (simple) instructions there ) |
kb9vqf | (I assume it's simple to make those changes through the pager configuration dialog) |
*kb9vqf is doing several things at once ATM | |
msb | The KDE3 pager is already legible. It's fine. This fix was for KDE4. |
kb9vqf | ah, OK |
kb9vqf | I misunderstood |
kb9vqf | sorry |
msb | np |
msb | I'm using kde3.5.10 with its pager now. Works great. |
kb9vqf | glad to hear it :) |
kb9vqf | If something is making Trinity unusable for you please let us know what it is... |
kb9vqf | we can't fix what we are not aware of :) |
msb | I'd like to be able to set all the window margins blue, but the selected one bright green or red. But the best I can get is all of them gray except the selected one blue. |
kb9vqf | So the configuration option is not "sticking"?> |
msb | Also I much prefer the pushpin gidget for the window being on all desktops or just one. But the best I can get is the circle whose inside either is or is not the same color as the outside. |
kb9vqf | Can you file bug reports for those two items on http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net |
kb9vqf | ? |
msb | Yes. I set it but it doesn't work. |
kb9vqf | Also, it might be fixed in SVN at this time, but the trouble is that we cannot compile a complete set of packages against newer systems from SVN at this time |
kb9vqf | Rest assured we are working hard to fix the build issues ;-) |
msb | There may be a problem with the KDE4 window manager or its config data interfering with the KDE3 WM config. So if no-one else is having the problem, I shouldn't file a bug report. Also, my installation of kde3.5.10 is from Suse, not Trinity, so the code may be different. |
kb9vqf | Ah, so you haven't used Trinity then |
kb9vqf | That might explain it |
kb9vqf | We're on 3.5.12 already |
msb | Not as such. |
msb | I guess I'd have to compile it from source. |
kb9vqf | Probably due to the missing RPMs, right |
kb9vqf | ? |
msb | Right -- no rpms for suse. |
kb9vqf | Sorry about that |
*Xu_R hides... | |
kb9vqf | I'm not familiar with the RPM system so I can't fix it myself |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: Shame on you :) |
Xu_R | >_> |
msb | Frankly, now that I have my system finally working -- it took me about 3 weeks -- I don't want to risk making any changes that might F it up. |
kb9vqf | Sure |
kb9vqf | That's quite understandable |
kb9vqf | We'll be here for later on :) |
Xu_R | KDE:KDE3 is still getting regular bugfixes and is still supported with novell, so... I still have some leeway when I start Trinity for SuSE :D |
msb | Great! And I hope that you can get Carrie-Anne Moss involved somehow! |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: Care to pull those bugfixes and make sure they are posted to the mailing list? |
kb9vqf | They should be incorporated in Trinity SVN if possible |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: sure... I'll look for any recent commits. |
kb9vqf | ok, thanks |
Xu_R | AFAIK the only recent ones have been gcc46 fixes |
kb9vqf | Ah |
Xu_R | which can be easily found in any affected packages by the name of "gcc46.diff" |
kb9vqf | Well, I'll jump off that bridge when I come to it |
kb9vqf | As in, after it builds completely under gcc4.5 :) |
Xu_R | xD |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: Not sure if you saw this, but I got some packages to work with the latest Autotools |
kb9vqf | They are on the bottom of Etherpad #25 |
kb9vqf | So the CMake port is no longer stalling out my TQt4 conversion work |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: how did you manage that? |
MutantTurkey | is it worth abandoning the cmake effort? |
MutantTurkey | and I see that koffice is at the bottom of that stack, for Absolute lowest priority, should we move to drop it completely? |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: saw :D |
kb9vqf | No, CMake is still needed |
kb9vqf | only some packages are building with Autotools |
kb9vqf | but the packages that build with Autotools obviously do not need to be ported to CMake ;-) |
kb9vqf | and yes, I would move to drop koffice, unless it builds with Autotools |
kb9vqf | that's a topic for the next meeting though |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: Please let MutantTurkey know this stuff when he comes back on :) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ |
Xu_R | ok |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: hm, while we're waiting on cmake, it might be good to run through the suse patches, and see if we missed anything :) |
kb9vqf | go right ahead :) |
kb9vqf | I've got more Autotools checking and fixing to do |
Xu_R | okees... i'll start having more time soon ^_^ |

Xu_R | next steps for that emergency meeting email: |
Xu_R | "Please refer to the June Meeting + Etherpad for more information on next steps, including: |
Xu_R | - Getting 3.5.13 out the door! |
Xu_R | - Getting 3.5.13 out the door! |
Xu_R | - Getting 3.5.13 out the door!" |
kb9vqf | Yes |
*kb9vqf is working on that | |
kb9vqf | If you didn't notice there were several Automake fixes that went in recently |
kb9vqf | actually there are still more on my laptop |
kb9vqf | 3.5.13 will be a hybrid release |
kb9vqf | CMake for the core, and Automake for the rest |
Xu_R | that's a good plan |
kb9vqf | Actually, once I get the converted modules committed, you should do a rebuild and start working on the bugs in the bugtracker |
kb9vqf | That is what everyone should be focussing on |
kb9vqf | Not moving to GIT or yanking the website from me ;-) |
Xu_R | well, the bugs.pc.net are up again... |
kb9vqf | :) |
*kb9vqf knows it was inconvenient and apologizes profusely | |
Piki | kb9vqf: btw, what's the likelyhood of a tqt release for 3.5.13? would save some space on the isos, qt4 installer + qt3 de = larger iso :-) |
kb9vqf | 0% |
Xu_R | XD |
kb9vqf | TQt4 is unstable |
Piki | :-( |
kb9vqf | 3.5.13 will build against TQt4 and TQt3, but it won't run stably |
kb9vqf | There is a *lot* of work that went into the project just to get it to that point |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: by the way, bugs.pearsoncomputing.net's bugzilla keeps redirecting to /bugzilla/buglist.cgi which doesn't exist... |
kb9vqf | Once everything is converted I will resume work on TQt4 itself |
kb9vqf | Hmmm |
kb9vqf | Did it always do that? |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: yea... |
Piki | with bero's highly hacked rpm5 and squashfs, it shouldn't be too big an issue, just would be nice if we could fit more on |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: Bug me about it tomorrow or the day after :) |
*kb9vqf needs to go; will be back later tonight or tomorrow | |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: get some sleep! |
Xu_R | :) |
kb9vqf | :) |
kb9vqf | I'll try to commit the code I have ASAP as well |
Piki | sleeeeeeeeeep! glorious sleeeeeeeep! |
Piki | :-D |
kb9vqf | Thanks to all for their patience while I sorted out the problems |
kb9vqf | We can get OpenSUSE's interest at a better time in the near future IMHO |
*Piki needs to lay off the caffeine :-) | |
Xu_R | yes, and we will have much more support then :) |
Xu_R | after 3.5.13 - start to lure in SuSE LOL |
Xu_R | later kb9vqf |
Piki | kb9vqf: we have confidence in you :-) don't worry, we'll let you remain leader as long as you continue the great work |
Xu_R | ... |
Piki | don't mind me, the day's stresses are finally starting to affect me :-) (blasted walmart... >:-( ) |
*MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: dude I have seriously had no motivation in life since you disappeared |
MutantTurkey | are you well? |
Piki | MutantTurkey: i think he's already left |
Piki | he said he might be on later or tomorrow |
MutantTurkey | ah :[ |
MutantTurkey | anyway what's the news now? |
Piki | he wants to keep the site on his servers, but he doesn't mind backups of the main site |
MutantTurkey | are we going forward with any plans |
MutantTurkey | thats dumb. |
MutantTurkey | because my server is in the cloud = therefore has absolutely 0 downtime. |
Piki | anything dynamic he's keeping to himself because it has sensitive data |
MutantTurkey | we have had like 3 outages since I join the projects, and two were major |
MutantTurkey | so I dunno. |
Piki | he doesn't mind moving svn off of kde, but he wants to keep it to svn because he doesn't have much time to learn git |
MutantTurkey | ouch |
MutantTurkey | I again disagree. |
MutantTurkey | svn is dead. |
MutantTurkey | everyone uses GIT :) |
Piki | not everyone |
MutantTurkey | most people I have seen use git. |
Piki | it is decline quite a bit, but not dead |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: actually, I see his logic. let's get 3.5.13 out, then move to GIT. |
Xu_R | because he's been committting |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: well to bad I CAN'T HELP OUT BECAUSE I DON'T HAVE ANY COMMIT ACCESS :) |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: I know, I know :-\ |
MutantTurkey | at this point it is a hassle to have new devels |
MutantTurkey | thats why git is better. |
Piki | MutantTurkey: if we move svn to another server where tim has more control, he can give you what access you need :-) |
MutantTurkey | Piki: yeah, but svn still sucks |
MutantTurkey | anyway private servers suckfor big projects |
Piki | then, as Xu_R said, we can move to git after release |
MutantTurkey | It's easier for new develpoers to join if we use gitorious. |
MutantTurkey | anyhow I am glad we are moving. |
MutantTurkey | any good commits? |
Xu_R | new cmake stuff that kb9vqf was doing during downtime |
MutantTurkey | nice. |
MutantTurkey | what areas? |
Xu_R | everything I imported into Gitorious so far? he made changes in practically all of those modules |
Piki | oh, and tim also said we'll do cmake for the core, but autotools for the rest, he has fixes for that |
Xu_R | and samelian just committed 23 hours ago to kdenetwork ( I did not catch that ) |
MutantTurkey | I just saw that. |
MutantTurkey | Piki: then what was the point of the switch? |
MutantTurkey | and what is "core"> |
MutantTurkey | ? |
MutantTurkey | I mean i know that autotools broke, but what the hell, it is a crazy pile of shit. cmake is 100x cleaner |
MutantTurkey | I digress. |
Piki | MutantTurkey: i guess what he wants to do is get out a release to bump up interest, then finish cmake after |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: kde* + dependencies/ |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: what else is left? |
MutantTurkey | applications? |
Xu_R | yea.... |
MutantTurkey | Piki: I am all for that too though |
MutantTurkey | whats our release schedule looking like? |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: what did you want to start hacking on again? |
MutantTurkey | kpdf :) |
Piki | i've no real opinion either way, i've never had to configure source code for either, so i can't speak to which is better, but i think we should do entirely one or the other |
MutantTurkey | Piki: cmake is better |
Xu_R | any core module too? I know you mentioned one... |
Xu_R | because I'm going to throw it up on gitorious |
MutantTurkey | basically the whole auto hell system is from the 80's... |
Xu_R | and then you can clone it and diff from it |
MutantTurkey | and it's just a giant complicated mess. |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: I'm importing kpdf for your hacking pleasure. when you're done I'll just grab a diff so we can apply it. |
MutantTurkey | yeah it is presently unclear however what I am to do with it. |
MutantTurkey | I have to talk to tim about poppler |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: question, where's kpdf? in applications? because I cannot find it in svn |
Xu_R | oh, I see it, never mind |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: just wondering your opinion on this: https://gitorious.org/trinityde/buildtools/blobs/master/setupdevenv |
MutantTurkey | its in kdegraphics |
MutantTurkey | what is buildstools? |
MutantTurkey | create-tarball? |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: bash scripts I threw in, in case we actually move Trinity to GIT, to make life easier. |
MutantTurkey | Ok. |
MutantTurkey | I don't get this though... |
MutantTurkey | I mean, is that assuming we never used git before? |
MutantTurkey | because I have my own git config :) |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: yea - feel free to skip if you know git :) |
Xu_R | I made that in case anyone didn't know git... |
MutantTurkey | right :) |
Xu_R | well, off to bed |
Xu_R | night |
Xu_R | i'll push kpdf first thing tmrw morning, because the SVN revision sorting is *hell*. |
MutantTurkey | ok |

Piki | RaiNerTsuFal: just saw your question in the website's chat logs. i think i saw yesterday that the quickbuild system isn't public any more, and that provides the ppa links in the installation instructions. (can't remember exactly what was said, i don't think tbottu was logging to the site at that point, and my client seems to be malfunctioning a bit with some sutff, so i don't have any recent logs) |
Piki | we'll need kb9vqf to confirm, and update the instructions if need be |
Strangelv | :: was going to ask about the satus for the repositories himself |
Piki | i'm using tokra's mirror |
Strangelv | "Got a sources.list line? |
Strangelv | "...and is it stable enough to put it on the web site? |
Strangelv | "or would the bandwidth cause trouble for her? |
*Strangelv scrolls up to see what he missed | |
Xu_R | Strangelv: http://mirror.its.uidaho.edu/pub/trinity/ |
kb9vqf | Piki: QuickBuild will be back up publicly in about a week--use the other mirrors in the meantime |
Piki | whether there's enough bandwidth for the site is up to tokra, but uidaho.org would probably be fine :-) |
kb9vqf | uidaho is the primary mirror |
Strangelv | danke |
Strangelv | :: finds ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing nowhere in his sources.list, but apt-get update still looks for it. He's not encountered tihs before. He only now notices something called sources.list.d |

Xu_R | you should keep sources.list.d where it is, then. because sources.list.d contains addons to sources.list (more repositories) |
Strangelv | "Which are getting in the way right now |
Xu_R | Strangelv: you should probably take a look inside sources.list.d |
Xu_R | open the trinity file |
Strangelv | I did. Trinity and dropbox |
Xu_R | so then open the trinity file |
Xu_R | and then change the sources there |
Xu_R | don't move the whole thing! (you'll lose the dropbox repo too that way) |
Strangelv | I'm nota ctualyl using dropbox right now |
Xu_R | your choice anyway :P |
Strangelv | "andwhat I'm adding to access the mirror is temporary |
Strangelv | Thank you for helping make sure it was an informed choice |
*Xu_R notes that whenever you update apt, sources.list.d will probably be added again... | |
Strangelv | now if i could just type in the correct form of the mirror on its own deb line |
Strangelv | success. 8) |

Xu_R | lol, yea, that's so awesome! |
kb9vqf | it's been that way for years |

Piki | hi |
user__ | Unfortunately the Debian Squeeze repository mirror in mirror.its.uidaho.edu is incomplete. To many core packages are missing. |
user__ | Have to stay on Lenny for now. Hope the official repo is fixed someday. Being forced to switch to something as incomplete as LXDE just because it's the only usable DE remaining for Linux is something that bothers me even since KDE was discontinued. |
*Space_Man has joined #trinity-desktop | |
*affect has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Xu_R | user__: mind you, mirror.its.uidaho.edu is the official mirror to which others mirror from, AFAIK. Squeeze is incomplete because of the current porting we're having here... |
*van has joined #trinity-desktop | |

kb9vqf | Xu_R: It's OK, please reschedule the meeting :) |
kb9vqf | I think your reminder messages the day of are also a good thing |
Xu_R | Yea, I should probably do that :P |
Xu_R | do you think rescheduling to like 8/9 PM tonight is a good idea? |
Xu_R | actually, scratch that idea, it's terrible for anyone not in the US... |
kb9vqf | right |
kb9vqf | another day |

Xu_R | o. |
Strangelv | It has a long and complex history that dates back to 1994 |
Strangelv | The current treasurer has been active the entire time |

ozan_caglayan | Hi, |
ozan_caglayan | I'd like to ask about smart card login support status in trinityt |
*Piki has joined #trinity-desktop | |
*Z_God has joined #trinity-desktop | |
*Z_God has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | ozan_caglayan: It works for ACOS type cards |
kb9vqf | improvements are planned, including tighter integration with the desktop lock module |

*Piki has joined #trinity-desktop | |
*K`zan has joined #trinity-desktop | |
ozan_caglayan | kb9vqf: Does it need INN to work correctly? |
ozan_caglayan | and did you modify KDM at all or does it still asks for user/password instead of only PIN |
kb9vqf | ozan_caglayan: I don't remember OTOH, and no, kdm still allows a "normal" user/password login |
kb9vqf | as I metioned there is still work to be done to improve it :) |
ozan_caglayan | hm. What I need is to detect card inserts and modify KDM to only ask for a PIN just like Windows does. |
kb9vqf | I don't have PIN support in there yet |
kb9vqf | not in kdm that is |
ozan_caglayan | But i don't know if i should modify the classic greeter plugin or write another one dedicated to smartcards. |
kb9vqf | look at the modifications I made to the kdesktop_lock app |
kb9vqf | I would modify the greeter in a similar manner |
kb9vqf | bear in mind that I intend to specify a full interface for non-password based logins, so things may proceed in the future in a different (better) direction |
kb9vqf | specifically I want to see a system service that handles smart card detection/authentication, and requests dialogs and popup messages to be shown on kdm or kdesktop_lock |
*kb9vqf will look at that as soon as he has more time | |
ozan_caglayan | kb9vqf: nice plan |
ozan_caglayan | actually there's the standard pkcs11_eventmgr daemon which detects inserts/removals |
kb9vqf | right |
kb9vqf | I have hooks all into the pkcs libs :) |
kb9vqf | that part work |
kb9vqf | *works |
kb9vqf | the entire system does not handle PINs yet and is generally suboptimal |
kb9vqf | so I would like to rewrite part of it after writing the full specification |

*samelian has joined #trinity-desktop | |
*K`zan has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Xu_R | well, I've updated the june etherpad page |
kb9vqf | good |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: How is Konqueror misbehaving for you? |
*samelian has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: misrendering, crashing on flash... your usual suspects ;P |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: Those are KHTML problems |
kb9vqf | not Konqueror problems |
kb9vqf | FYI |
kb9vqf | Yes, KHTML needs a good thrashing and rewrite |
kb9vqf | I would far prefer Webkit |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: ah, OK. then I will change that. |
kb9vqf | yes, thanks :) |
Xu_R | hey samelian, long time no see :) |
samelian | Xu_R: hehe, busy |
samelian | any news? |
Xu_R | samelian: well, site's been down for a while, but other than that, not much :) btw, you know we have a meeting tomorrow, right? |
Xu_R | (or, today for you :P) |
samelian | yes, I saw the message on mailinglist |
*kb9vqf notes the site has been back up for a while as well ;-) | |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: indeed :) |
kb9vqf | and significant progress has been made in TQt4 porting...nearly all the kde* modules are complete |
samelian | we will move the sources to gitorius? |
kb9vqf | just a few to go |
samelian | nice |
kb9vqf | not yet |
kb9vqf | and I don't know if that's the best place or not |
kb9vqf | we should do some digging and comparison of alternatives |
samelian | so far i'm happy with kde's svn |
kb9vqf | me too, except for the lack of control over it |
kb9vqf | i.e. we can't add devs |
Xu_R | (kde.org's svn is also winding down, btw...) |
kb9vqf | my experience has been that GIT is slow and irritating |
samelian | anyone interested can ask KDE admins for access to svn |
kb9vqf | and they will generally deny access without a track record of patches |
samelian | aha |
kb9vqf | I would personally like to see a fine grained access control system |
kb9vqf | so that we can allow the artists commit access to the artwork but not the core code, etc. |
kb9vqf | SVN can do that, I don't know about GIT |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: I propose doing the same thing that kde.org did - kdebase is one repo with seperate permissions, kdelibs is another repo with seperate permissions... |
Xu_R | unless you mean folders? |
kb9vqf | folders, file types, etc. |
kb9vqf | can someone maybe get a feature comparison together (GIT vs SVN) (Xu_R?) |
Xu_R | sure |
kb9vqf | I am also interested in performance |
kb9vqf | my automated scripts pull down all the code and rebuild it every night |
kb9vqf | so if GIT is slow I'll know it in a bad way here |
Xu_R | I think performance is quite good.. |
Xu_R | *... |
*kb9vqf is interested in all characteristics, i.e. network efficiency, CPU usage, HDD usage, and RAM usage | |
kb9vqf | basically what it takes to keep a working copy up to date |
kb9vqf | also I'd like to see a comparison of several free long-term providers, with KDE SVN as a baseline |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: http://whygitisbetterthanx.com/#git-is-small |
kb9vqf | can you put it on an Etherpad? |
*kb9vqf doesn't have much time to look at it now, but we will need to reference it in the future | |
Xu_R | was just going to do it :P |
kb9vqf | thanks :) |
*kb9vqf thanks Xu_R for his Etherpad suggestion long ago | |
Xu_R | no need for thanks, just trying to help :) |
kb9vqf | it's a nice tool to have :) |

kb9vqf | hello |
MutantTurkey | I am getting the ever so annoying "Unable to build a simple Qt3 test." again |
kb9vqf | On CMake? |
MutantTurkey | yessir |
kb9vqf | samelian: ^^^^^^^ |
kb9vqf | which module? |
MutantTurkey | tqtinterface! |
samelian | MutantTurkey: show me CMakeError.lor |
kb9vqf | hmmm |
MutantTurkey | samelian: ok |
kb9vqf | do as he says :) |
samelian | I did not made any changes |
MutantTurkey | I know, I have not built in some time. |
MutantTurkey | http://ix.io/1Kh |
samelian | MutantTurkey: I think the error log is self explanatory |
samelian | qapplication.h is not found in /opt/qt/include/qt |
MutantTurkey | qapplication.h no such |
MutantTurkey | yes |
MutantTurkey | let me look |
MutantTurkey | everything is in /opt/qt/include/qt |
MutantTurkey | everything is NOT in /opt/qt/include/qt, i mean |
MutantTurkey | they are in /opt/qt/include/ |
samelian | so, fix the path to qt passed to cmake :) |
MutantTurkey | okay |
MutantTurkey | thanks |
samelian | np |
MutantTurkey | samelian: thank you sir |
MutantTurkey | working now ;) |
samelian | hehe, ok |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: I can't make a new wiki page, could you createo one named Monthly Meetings? |
kb9vqf | Which web? |
kb9vqf | I'll just grant you write access |
MutantTurkey | Developer Web I think |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: OK, you have write access |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: what wiki formatting system does it use? |
kb9vqf | FOSSWiki |
MutantTurkey | ok |
*samelian hates KIO::AuthInfo, seems that is smarter than me :) | |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: also we need to keep the meeting minutes somewhere locally... |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Yes |
kb9vqf | Xu_R was supposed to handle that |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: I mean he has them available. but not on trinity's website. |
kb9vqf | Right, he was supposed to upload them to the Wiki |
MutantTurkey | Oh? like each one being a seperate page? |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: are you planning on doing that? |
kb9vqf | AFAIK that was what he was supposed to do |
kb9vqf | If he doesn't have time then feel free to do it yourself ;) |
MutantTurkey | That would be OK, I mean it would be easier to just host it as html documents |
MutantTurkey | but I can convert them over to the wiki. |
MutantTurkey | but again, the logs need to go somewhere also. |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: http://www.trinitydesktop.org/wiki/bin/view/Developers/MonthlyMeetings |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Just attach the logs to that page |
MutantTurkey | yep thats the idea |
kb9vqf | that will provide a copy in two places |
kb9vqf | Xu_R's site and the main TrinityDesktop site |
MutantTurkey | confused, do you want me to copy the minutes to individual wiki pages? |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: wait, I am supposed to do that? |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: No, I meant attach them all to the MonthlyMeetings page |
kb9vqf | Xu_R: Yes :) |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: you can attach html files? |
kb9vqf | Yes |
MutantTurkey | oh that is easy then |
kb9vqf | you can attach any file type |
MutantTurkey | I will do it all thne |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: don't worry. |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: k, thanks |
Xu_R | it's been hectic here... |
MutantTurkey | computer = mad slow = compiling kdelibs LOL |
Xu_R | i'm leaving for beijing, china thursday |
Xu_R | and I have no idea how to get past the great firewall of china... |
MutantTurkey | holy crap |
MutantTurkey | there is no firewall in beijing i thought |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: great firewall of china = censorship |
kb9vqf | TDE is blocked by China? |
MutantTurkey | I know |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: freenode is |
MutantTurkey | I meant I thought beijing actually didn't get blocked |
kb9vqf | Hmmm |
kb9vqf | When will you be back? |
Xu_R | mid july, when I announce the July Trinity Meeting |
Xu_R | I need to figure out a VPN or something... |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: I could set you up an account on my vps |
MutantTurkey | you can then use irssi on it |
MutantTurkey | would that be ok? |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: that would be great |
Xu_R | as long as I can VPN through it, that should work. |
MutantTurkey | what is VPN? |
MutantTurkey | how do i set that up? |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: virtual private network |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: what does mean though, do i need to do anything? install software? |
*kb9vqf suggests you take this particular discussion off the #trinity-desktop channel ;-) | |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: good idea, i'll pm MutantTurkey |
MutantTurkey | :) |
MutantTurkey | I DON 'T KNOW YOU Xu_R OR WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT. |
Xu_R | "{ |
Xu_R | *:P |
MutantTurkey | just email me okay? |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: ok, i'll email you instructions/etc |
MutantTurkey | 72% built wooohoo! |
MutantTurkey | holy crap 100F :X |
kb9vqf | :) |
Xu_R | 100% or 100F? |
MutantTurkey | 100F and 86% done |
Xu_R | D: |
MutantTurkey | 40C is crazy hot for my desktop, it usually idles around like 20C |
Xu_R | D: |
MutantTurkey | well, it's been working at 100% for like almost an hour |
MutantTurkey | so. yeah |
Xu_R | damn |
MutantTurkey | load average: 4.99 haha |
Xu_R | o.o |
kb9vqf | kdelibs? |
MutantTurkey | yeah just finished |
MutantTurkey | well gotta compress the package... damn |
MutantTurkey | pacman (arch's package manager) still only utilizes a single core for compression and decompression |
kb9vqf | ick |
kb9vqf | kdebase is just about as nasty BTW |
MutantTurkey | yeah |
MutantTurkey | truthfully the only problem i was having before was that kdesktop crash... not still around i hope? |
*kb9vqf notes that this should give some appreciation for the size of the QuickBuild cluster here | |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: I believe it is fixed |
kb9vqf | if not please yell and scream at me |
MutantTurkey | haha I hope i won't have too |
MutantTurkey | It was quite annoying, not because I ever use my desktop, but because I use alt+f2 like constantly |
*kb9vqf hopes we are talking about the same crash | |
kb9vqf | At any rate the fix would be in kdebase |
MutantTurkey | yes. |
MutantTurkey | today is unfortunately my only free day of the week :[ |
MutantTurkey | I have sunday: school homework and such, monday, from 10am - 10pm then tuesday, work 12-9pm, wednesday: is monday, thursday: work 12-8pm friday: work 6am-2pm then hangout with girlfriend at 6pm. |

msb | MutantTurkey: Drexel in Philadelphia? My daddy used to teach there. |
msb | Does anyone know of a document that explains the various Linux sound systems? |
msb | Other than that godawful diagram? |
msb | Which according to that, it looks like ALSA by itself is all you need. |
msb | <nothing but a faint sound of crickets in the night> |
MutantTurkey | msb: yes. |
MutantTurkey | msb: alsa is all you need, and drexel in philly |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: almost done! http://www.trinitydesktop.org/wiki/bin/view/Developers/MonthlyMeetings |

kb9vqf | error? |
MutantTurkey | hang on |
MutantTurkey | cmake error |
MutantTurkey | let me study it a bit |
kb9vqf | you scared samelian away :) |
MutantTurkey | hahah |
MutantTurkey | cloning kdebase D: |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: basically it can't find dbus-tqt |
kb9vqf | you built dbus-tqt from SVN? |
MutantTurkey | hmmm apparently not :p |
MutantTurkey | it isn't trinity-dbus-1-qt3? |
kb9vqf | there is another one with an almost identical name |
kb9vqf | build and install it too |
MutantTurkey | gotta write the package build then |
MutantTurkey | I hope baho has it! |
*Baho has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: quickie question |
MutantTurkey | how do i clone our svn repo? |
kb9vqf | I don't know about cloning, but you can check out a copy with |
MutantTurkey | yes |
kb9vqf | you mean kde.org or trinitydesktop.org? |
MutantTurkey | trinity |
kb9vqf | svn co http://svn.trinitydesktop.org/svn/trinity/main --username=<your svn username> . |
MutantTurkey | can the public copy it? |
kb9vqf | yes |
kb9vqf | svn co http://svn.trinitydesktop.org/svn/trinity/main ; |
kb9vqf | svn co http://svn.trinitydesktop.org/svn/trinity/main . |
MutantTurkey | thanks! |
MutantTurkey | pkgbuild done! |
kb9vqf | np |
MutantTurkey | herm it gave me an error |
MutantTurkey | well kdebase did |
kb9vqf | what error? |
MutantTurkey | dbus-tqt is required but not found! |
MutantTurkey | i'll figure it out later, girlfriends coming over |
kb9vqf | ok |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: just wait for it to sync to the mirror... |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: okay... |

Xu_R | updated roadmap |
Xu_R | created this: http://trinity.etherpad.trinitydesktop.org/30 |
Xu_R | kb9vqf, samelian: ^^ |
*MutantTurkey has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | hey guys, got that wiki page done fully. |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: great idea about the meeting follow up! |
MutantTurkey | (etherpad that is) |
MutantTurkey | samelian: around? need building help |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: ty - I realized we weren't keeping track of stuff :P |
Xu_R | and I thought about the Git Migration... |
MutantTurkey | yes? |
*Xu_R was pondering since one of his favorite software projects chose Github over Gitorious, with a number of good reasons | |
MutantTurkey | well which would you prefer |
MutantTurkey | I would actually go with Self hosted.. |
Xu_R | hmm... |
Xu_R | It should be easy to do self-hosted. We'll just need to annoy kb9vqf to set up a cgit user interface, repositories, etc... :P |
*Xu_R is not saying that's a bad thing | |
MutantTurkey | he says he's okay with that. |
MutantTurkey | but he said he thought we should try alot of options out, whats the best format etc. |
MutantTurkey | do you think one repo for kdebase, kdelibs, etc? |
MutantTurkey | and then groups of repos (you can do that in cgit i think) |
Xu_R | yea |
Xu_R | let's go one repo per module |
Xu_R | I don't mind self-hosted, so... |
Xu_R | let's go three directory structures - core/<modules like kdebase>, applications/*, and i18n/* to simplify the structure setup... |
Xu_R | and then we can just get cgit to show everything. |
*kb9vqf updates http://trinity.etherpad.trinitydesktop.org/29 with a question... | |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: the questiong being...? |
kb9vqf | I would like to see this addressed: |
kb9vqf | http://gnuu.org/2008/02/22/your-scm-may-be-decentralized-but-your-project-isnt/ |
kb9vqf | It may factor into which VCS is actually superior |
Xu_R | aka you don't know how great git's merging functionality is? |
kb9vqf | no, I just don't know if it is the best thing for the project to have a trillion private copies that we may or may not know even exist |
Xu_R | ah. |
kb9vqf | *possibly modified private copies |
kb9vqf | mini-forks if you will |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: thats actually ice |
MutantTurkey | because someone can work on their own, then you can pull it in. |
kb9vqf | and when one of these mini-forks gets treated as upstream by someone unfamiliar with the project? |
MutantTurkey | hmmm I doubt that would happen (honestly) |
kb9vqf | ok |
*kb9vqf is playing "devils advocate" here | |
Xu_R | unlikely indeed |
Xu_R | lol |
MutantTurkey | I understand |
Xu_R | but it's definitely a valid concern... |
MutantTurkey | everything in git is local |
MutantTurkey | meaning, all old commits, all data related to the project is literally "cloned' |
kb9vqf | I know |
MutantTurkey | wayyy faster access to all of that. |
kb9vqf | which makes it much easier to fork a project for some tiny little nit |
MutantTurkey | Also! it is decentralized |
kb9vqf | Technically it is interesting |
MutantTurkey | so if you go down, I can keep commiting, |
MutantTurkey | even pull in Xu_R's changes and so on and so forth |
MutantTurkey | because they all operate independently |
kb9vqf | my main concern is fragmentation |
MutantTurkey | I don't think that is an issue. |
kb9vqf | we will have to have a very strict rule as to who has true "master" copy |
MutantTurkey | well your server does |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: you have the master copy, hands down |
MutantTurkey | that's the point. |
Xu_R | your server always has the master copy. |
MutantTurkey | the "master" is the one on your website with the cgit |
MutantTurkey | that's the idea. |
MutantTurkey | and everyone pushes to it. |
MutantTurkey | BUT if you went down, i could keep commiting |
MutantTurkey | also... branching is 1000x better |
kb9vqf | ok |
MutantTurkey | ALSO great for you, |
MutantTurkey | you like to do huge commits... right? |
kb9vqf | that may need to be written on the VCS web page for distros/etc. to know :) |
MutantTurkey | i mean you typically push all at once |
kb9vqf | and yes I do :) |
MutantTurkey | i know which is cool, it works for you. |
MutantTurkey | git has it basically, you you can add files to seperate commits, then push them all |
MutantTurkey | at once, that way it's easy to review and find bugs |
*kb9vqf doesn't think he would actually use that feature, as most of the work for separate commits is tagging them with commit comments | |
kb9vqf | although it would be nice to have available |
MutantTurkey | well I use it alot :P |
kb9vqf | hey, whatever works for you :) |
MutantTurkey | I mean, it's not a complicated feature |
MutantTurkey | it's like |
MutantTurkey | git add sourcefile.c |
MutantTurkey | git commit -m "added a comment to sourcefile.c" |
*kb9vqf knows | |
MutantTurkey | okay :) |
MutantTurkey | just sayin' |
kb9vqf | the primary reason for my concern about fragmentation is that we are a desktop environment |
kb9vqf | i.e. assumed secure |
kb9vqf | when you get untrusted mini-forks online there is the *potential* for security holes |
kb9vqf | both malicious and unintentional |
MutantTurkey | I asked on archlinux, all gitters |
MutantTurkey | "f you want people to use your sh*t and contribute you'll have way better luck with git" |
kb9vqf | we should mention promintently where upstream is on the build pages, that's all :) |
kb9vqf | *prominently |
MutantTurkey | "you can commit without pushing" |
MutantTurkey | "local repos, hands down" |
*kb9vqf is not going to buck the trend here | |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: but the thing is, the only repo anyone will see is the one with the web frontend. ya know? |
kb9vqf | I just want it done right and for as many possible problems to be handled *before* they occur |
kb9vqf | ok |
MutantTurkey | obviously |
MutantTurkey | how large is this project? like source wise? |
kb9vqf | huge |
MutantTurkey | 5+ gigs? |
kb9vqf | I think someone said 3+GB |
*kb9vqf has not checked recently | |
kb9vqf | easily hundreds of thousands of source files though ;-) |
MutantTurkey | yes. |
MutantTurkey | and another cited reason, git performs much faster than svn |
kb9vqf | well that I would like |
kb9vqf | how about RAM usage? |
kb9vqf | during pulls/updates |
Xu_R | i haven't had issues with RAM, so I doubt it uses very much |
kb9vqf | i.e. will it barf on a system with low free RAM or does it mainly work from disk? |
kb9vqf | ok |
MutantTurkey | I have 2gigs of ram and i've been fine |
Xu_R | it works for me on a 512 MB fedora 15 system with GNOME shell, so it's lightweight XD |
kb9vqf | well, it looks like most of the potential problems can be handled with documentation, so I say go ahead |
kb9vqf | after 3.5.13 of course ;-) |
kb9vqf | we'll disallow commits to the main SVN repository immediately after 3.5.13 |
Xu_R | :) |
kb9vqf | and move over as quickly as possible |
MutantTurkey | also! git has groups! |
kb9vqf | SVN did too |
MutantTurkey | so we can make a applications group, and core, group |
MutantTurkey | oh cool, didn't know that. |
kb9vqf | that means the infrastructure should be in place before 3.5.13 is released |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: I think we've convinced him :P |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: yes. |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: I have more though! |
Xu_R | ._. |
Xu_R | XD |
kb9vqf | I assume local hosting? |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: hrm? |
kb9vqf | Where is the main repository going to be hosted? |
kb9vqf | or are you still doscussing that? |
MutantTurkey | oh so for example, we are deprecating koffice... that means that we could just stick in in the deprecated group, and be done with it. |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: i thought we settled on you? |
kb9vqf | ok |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: we settled on you |
kb9vqf | that's what I was verifying :) |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Can you act as a full backup (mirror) of the main repo on your VPS? |
*kb9vqf wants location redundancy with something as important as the main source repository | |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: yes. |
MutantTurkey | how often do you want me to sync? |
Xu_R | hmm... kb9vqf: I think the best way to do this is to create a seperate user for git. |
Xu_R | then we'll just ssh through to git |
Xu_R | (aka, we give you our public keys) |
kb9vqf | sure, makes sense |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Ideally every few minutes |
kb9vqf | can GIT handle that? |
kb9vqf | i.e. how much bandwidth does it use just to say "there are no changes"? |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: every few minutes? |
MutantTurkey | I am sure almost none. |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: can we do post-commit hooks then? |
kb9vqf | good idea |
kb9vqf | that would be much better |
kb9vqf | can GIT do that? |
Xu_R | after every commit, it sends a hook to MutantTurkey's VPS |
Xu_R | yes, it can |
kb9vqf | ok |
MutantTurkey | good thinking |
kb9vqf | One other benefit is...I can send commit notices to the mailing list or this channel :) |
Xu_R | :D |
Xu_R | trinity-commit list :P |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: okay for libreoffice, I was thinking about hacking onto it... what "integration" do we want?" |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: yes. |
MutantTurkey | man githooks |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: just modify the kde3 integration and make it use TQT libraries, that actually should be it for now... |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | That is exactly what I was thinking |
kb9vqf | (for both the list and LibreOffice) |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: okay, they actually dropped their kde3 intergration... |
kb9vqf | well, copy it, rename it to tde integration,.... |
MutantTurkey | okay, does that mean we have to rebuild completely? or does LO have plugin systems for the integration? |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: really? last I checked, they still had it. And AFAICT, they still do... |
MutantTurkey | really? |
MutantTurkey | are you on 3.4? |
Xu_R | Libreoffice repos on openSUSE is on 3.4 - it still works for me... |
kb9vqf | Every time I had to change the plugin I had to rebuild the entire #$!@ openoffice suite |
Xu_R | i think it's a configure parameter you need to pass... |
kb9vqf | I may have been doing it wrong though :) |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: okay, i wasn't sure |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: lol |
kb9vqf | If you can figure out a way to build just the plugin against an existing OpenOffice/LibreOffice installation that would be GREAT |
MutantTurkey | ok |
kb9vqf | ooo took a good half day to build on my systems (which says something!) |
kb9vqf | i.e. a couple days for you guys :-P |
Xu_R | it takes a day on build.o.o |
MutantTurkey | i.e. a month on an atom |
Xu_R | so yea, it's definitely a long time |
kb9vqf | can you build the plugins separately? |
kb9vqf | maybe you want to ask around at ooo? |
Xu_R | I don't think so... |
Xu_R | especially desktop integration, probably little to no chance |
kb9vqf | it is just a plugin...I have worked on it some and actually (other than build system deficiencies) there is no technical reason why it shouldn't build separately |
Xu_R | true. |
kb9vqf | basically ooo exports everything needed to customize its interface |
kb9vqf | the desktop integration does not modify core files |
MutantTurkey | I asked in #libreoffice |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: and? |
MutantTurkey | waiting... |
Xu_R | bbl |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: did you see ilya's ML post just now? |
kb9vqf | hmmm |
kb9vqf | we can reconsider I suppose |
*Xu_R wonders if she has a good alternative | |
kb9vqf | and a response has been sent. |
MutantTurkey | also me |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | we'll see what Ilya has to say :) |
MutantTurkey | yours was a bit smoother :p |
Xu_R | xD |
MutantTurkey | I think this is a place to make a stand though, maintaining an desktop suite, on top of a DE is crazy thought |
Xu_R | I just try to stay out of stuff like than unless I can think of a good argument :P |
kb9vqf | koffice can sit there, but I won't work on it beyond fixing compilation issues |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: ask ilya to maintain |
kb9vqf | honestly ilya is acting like a troll |
kb9vqf | I have asked before, but he/she never does anything |
kb9vqf | he/she is on our list only to plug OpenSUSE and their outdated KDE3::KDE3 repository |
MutantTurkey | yeah :[ |
kb9vqf | from what I can tell his repository values quantity over quality |
*K`zan has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | how owns the OpenSuse repos? |
kb9vqf | I think anixx-suse (who I have no problem with whatsoever and do respect) actually owns the KDE3::KDE3 repository |
kb9vqf | or has the biggest hand in its maintinence |
MutantTurkey | okay. |
MutantTurkey | have they actually closed a number of bugs or anything significant we can use? that is the only use i see for thme |
kb9vqf | yes they have |
kb9vqf | however, ilya is more than content to sit on a set of software that is slowly growing more irrelevant and useless |
kb9vqf | that *will* cause KDE3 to die |
kb9vqf | whereas TDE is attempting to modernize and keep TDE relevant with modern technology and file types |
kb9vqf | two different philosophies I guess |
kb9vqf | we are willing to entertain the possibility of breakage to add features |
kb9vqf | Ilya wants everything static, with the only changes being to make sure the software compiles |
MutantTurkey | I am all for keeping it moving |
MutantTurkey | i want trinity to be as if KDE4 never happened, a continuation of 3.5 |
MutantTurkey | not the stagnatation of it. |
kb9vqf | exactly |
kb9vqf | Ilya wants a huge amount of stagnant packages |
kb9vqf | different goals |
kb9vqf | he/she can grate at times, but he/she also offers an opportunity to express the difference between the philosophies |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: get in #libreoffice-dev plz |
kb9vqf | ok... |
MutantTurkey | thanks |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: this is excellent news! |
kb9vqf | yes! |
MutantTurkey | :D |
Xu_R | back, did I miss something? |
MutantTurkey | yes! |
*Xu_R looks up to see | |
MutantTurkey | we talked to libreoffice devels and they explained about stuff |
MutantTurkey | well /are explaining/ |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: and? |
MutantTurkey | and it looks good |
Xu_R | they kept kde3 stuff in there, right? |
kb9vqf | if not it's no big deal |
kb9vqf | I have worked with it before |
Xu_R | awesome!\ |
Xu_R | now what else did I miss... |
kb9vqf | it sounds like they significantly enhanced the build system |
MutantTurkey | log thattt. |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Can you copy/paste that exchange to an Etherpad? |
Xu_R | throw it up on etherpad, so that we have record of it :) |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: yes |
Xu_R | (on the june meeting progress that I put up) |
kb9vqf | thanks |
*affect has joined #trinity-desktop | |
Xu_R | oh... um... kb9vqf |
Xu_R | i'm reading up |
kb9vqf | ? |
Xu_R | Ilya = Anixx-suse |
kb9vqf | uh oh |
kb9vqf | well, I have no idea then |
Xu_R | ...yea... |
kb9vqf | I have read his posts on forums and he seemed OK |
kb9vqf | why is he so antagonistic on our mailing list?? |
Xu_R | I don't know... |
MutantTurkey | http://trinity.etherpad.trinitydesktop.org/31 |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: holy crap what! |
Xu_R | exactly why I'm a bit worried. |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: dude... he literally went on a whole spiel about how many packages they had... |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: http://trinity.etherpad.trinitydesktop.org/30 I updated the depreciate koffice item with a link to the libreoffice conv |
Xu_R | *convo |
Space_Man | if Ilya is willing to keep koffice alive and compiling then why not keep it |
kb9vqf | ok, I cancelled deprecation and sent a reply |
kb9vqf | He did have one valid point at the beginning |
kb9vqf | This will push our release back a month or so |
Space_Man | are there any stats for koffice installs? |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: what? |
Xu_R | ah, damn |
Xu_R | I see his point |
MutantTurkey | should I not reply? i just rebutted his arguments |
Xu_R | it's really not a great one though. |
Xu_R | feel free to have arguments on the subject... |
kb9vqf | No, there are no stats |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: Don't reply please |
kb9vqf | That first argument cannot be rebutted |
kb9vqf | there is no direct replacement for krita |
MutantTurkey | all f the rest can. |
Xu_R | aye... >_> |
MutantTurkey | then we keep krita? |
Xu_R | If Ilya insists on keeping this, we better figure out a way to get Calligra working with TQt |
Xu_R | because we can't maintain this all on our own |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: I thought Calligra dropped krita? |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: no, calligra has krita still I think... lemme double check |
Space_Man | does krita need the rest of koffice? |
kb9vqf | yes |
kb9vqf | unfortunately there are core libraries |
MutantTurkey | well crap |
kb9vqf | yeah |
MutantTurkey | what a fogie. |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: wait, I think krita split from calligra |
Xu_R | you might be right |
MutantTurkey | Xu_R: excellent |
Xu_R | wait |
Xu_R | scratch that again |
Xu_R | it's part of calligra |
Xu_R | full explaination here http://krita.org/download-krita |
Xu_R | and more http://krita.org/frequently-asked-questions so we're going to have to stick with koffice/calligra D: |
kb9vqf | we're stuck with koffice unfortunately |
MutantTurkey | because of krita? |
Xu_R | yup |
MutantTurkey | Ilya is just trolling us now |
Xu_R | MutantTurkey: yea... >_> |
Xu_R | I hope TQt4 comes quickly then, so we can just start pointing to calligra... |
kb9vqf | It won't |
kb9vqf | koffice is huge |
kb9vqf | Expect TQt4 sometime in 2012/2013 |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: can we just release it without TQT4 then? Because it'd be easier to say "you can use the Qt4 calligra suite" |
kb9vqf | No |
kb9vqf | Full port |
Xu_R | oh, good lord. |
kb9vqf | I want the backend ABI STABLE |
kb9vqf | otherwise we will chew through minor version numbers like water |
kb9vqf | OR |
kb9vqf | be unacceptable to Debian |
kb9vqf | and other distros by breaking versioning policy |
kb9vqf | we're stuck really |
kb9vqf | then again, I have seen no activity on the bugtracker to fix bugs, so TQt4 may not be the blocker... |
kb9vqf | ;-) |
Xu_R | that single comment throws back the roadmap... >_> |
kb9vqf | Well, that is why I only suggested the deprecation in the meeting |
kb9vqf | I figured there would be some reason why we have to keep koffice |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: well you raised a good point. |
kb9vqf | ? |
MutantTurkey | the port to tqt4 for koffice |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: is it possible we can establish some communication with calligra on this? they might be able to help porting to TQt4 - they know the functions best too, probably... |
*Xu_R is just trying to find a way to speed up this porting process... | |
kb9vqf | not really |
kb9vqf | calligra is a full Qt4 port |
kb9vqf | meaning they lost functionality |
Xu_R | damn |
Xu_R | brb |
MutantTurkey | so is there a point in keeping 3.5 version of koffice? |
MutantTurkey | just tested my server 14/Mbs steady 32Mb/s peak |
kb9vqf | yes, there is a point |
MutantTurkey | which is? |
kb9vqf | tde integration and functionality |
kb9vqf | I'm not happy either |
kb9vqf | koffice will be the LAST thing that I port |
kb9vqf | but such is life |
MutantTurkey | can we get the same integration with libre? |
Space_Man | koffice appears to have more apps compared to libre |
Space_Man | but what does integration really mean? |
kb9vqf | integration means that the UI elements are similar/identical, that the general methods of using the program should not differ from the general methods of using other programs in the desktop suite, that file open/save dialogs should be uniform, etc. |
MutantTurkey | right. |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: question, do we need a qt4-tqt library, almost like what qt-gtk integration is like? |
Xu_R | for all those apps that don't use tqt |
kb9vqf | we can't do that |
kb9vqf | The entire reason for the move to TQt is to avoid duplication of Qt specific symbols |
kb9vqf | The fact that Qt3 and Qt4 use the same namespace and the same symbols means that they cannot be combined in any single application.. Period/. |
MutantTurkey | damn. |
Xu_R | OK, so Qt4 applications can run alongside TQt with no theming/etc issues? |
MutantTurkey | alright, i gotta split. |
kb9vqf | yes |
MutantTurkey | good progress today. |
kb9vqf | yes I think so |
kb9vqf | let me handle Ilya |
MutantTurkey | good luck |
kb9vqf | one has to handle a borderline troll carefully :) |
MutantTurkey | indeed. |
MutantTurkey | farewell friends. I shall return later. |
Xu_R | later MutantTurkey |
Xu_R | kb9vqf: lol |
kb9vqf | ? |

Xu_R | btw |
Xu_R | when I wanted to start a Trinity repo on build.o.o |
Xu_R | (s)he didn't want to keep it in KDE3, but somewhere else (eg. KDE:Trinity) |
MutantTurkey_ | whatever. |
Xu_R | lol |
Xu_R | i agree though... |
MutantTurkey_ | at this point its just annoying me |
kb9vqf | ....and I finally succumbed. There will be no more discussion on that topic. |
kb9vqf | Ilya's arrogance and unsubstantiated claims are something that we do not need here |
Xu_R | sigh |
Xu_R | i agree. |
MutantTurkey_ | the best thing to do is to respone clearly, and with intent. then drop it completely. |

Xu_R | ok |
Xu_R | I will add that to the list then - just keep suggesting :) |
MutantTurkey_ | also! |
MutantTurkey_ | we need to move all bugs related to distro's to a different category |
MutantTurkey_ | those are distro bugs, not trinity bugs. |
MutantTurkey_ | already talked to tim about. |
Xu_R | that's tim's job, because he needs to setup categories :P |

MutantTurkey_ | or else we won't remember |
MutantTurkey_ | if he sets it up, i can sort through it probably |
Xu_R | ok. |
MutantTurkey_ | its alot of them |
Xu_R | yea, noticed that as well. |
MutantTurkey_ | also we need to sweep through bugs |
MutantTurkey_ | and make sure that 1) they are still bugs (havent been fixed) 2) are still relevant (maybe older versions are broken but new ones fixed) 3) aren't distro bugs |
MutantTurkey_ | add that to the list haha |
Xu_R | lol |
Xu_R | kk |
MutantTurkey_ | thanks |
Xu_R | np |
MutantTurkey_ | Xu_R: I wrote it up nicely |
MutantTurkey_ | we should shoot for a bug day this week and just crack down on bugs, not fixing, but cleaning up the tracker |
Xu_R | nice |
Xu_R | I'm leaving for china on thursday, and I got some last minute stuff to take care of. I'll try to be present. |
MutantTurkey_ | i don't know its fine |
MutantTurkey_ | was just an idea |
MutantTurkey_ | probably to busy anyway haha |
Xu_R | lol |
MutantTurkey_ | also robert |
MutantTurkey_ | you know bugs.trinitydesktop.org works... |
Xu_R | did not know that lol |
MutantTurkey_ | :) |
Xu_R | oh, he still didn't fix the search function >_> |
MutantTurkey_ | yeah... |
Xu_R | well, off to bed. night! |

MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: I urge you to do something about this. |
MutantTurkey | It is apparent that the on going discussion has quickly turned into a rapid fire argument. I note that you have made serious arguments, but much of this is just pure trolllism. we are not even on the original topic! |
MutantTurkey | I would post but I do feel that entering into the boxing ring at this point would be like attempting to stop the russian revolution. |
kb9vqf | I'm done |
kb9vqf | Any more stupidity and I'll remove him from the list |
kb9vqf | I honestly think there might be a languange barrier |
MutantTurkey | why? because he is not polite or something? |
kb9vqf | At least we got a comment from a neutral observer in there |
MutantTurkey | I am impressed at your response for most of it. |
MutantTurkey | when you keep stepping back and saying the big picture, its works really well. |
MutantTurkey | the problem is when ilya points out one small thing, you comment on it. because we ALL know this isn't about the dialogs in openoffice, it's really about the whole control issue |
kb9vqf | Yes it is |
kb9vqf | I don't want to see KDE3 die because one person wants to look at quantity of apps versus quality of apps |
MutantTurkey | anyway. this is why archlinux pacman developers are so damn unfriendly. |
MutantTurkey | because they've done this a million times |
MutantTurkey | at this point they basically say |
MutantTurkey | "no patches? well gtfo and we don't care" |
kb9vqf | So I am insisting that this *group* (not one individual) maintains control of KDE3's future :-) |
MutantTurkey | which now i see as a good thing, people need to bring something to the table instead of demanding things |
kb9vqf | i guess |
kb9vqf | we do need to be careful though |
MutantTurkey | no i am aware. |
kb9vqf | listening to the users is good |
MutantTurkey | yes. |
kb9vqf | it's just when you get troll-like behaviour, then it turns nasty |
MutantTurkey | but demands that are frankly rude are not. |
MutantTurkey | we need to be clear then, |
kb9vqf | right |
kb9vqf | and I have no idea if he is rude because he means to be or if there is a language barrier there |
kb9vqf | most of his comments can be take two ways |
MutantTurkey | there is a language barrier |
kb9vqf | and he may be using idioms from his native language |
MutantTurkey | i use to deal with other people from russia a bit |
MutantTurkey | they use different speech patterns |
MutantTurkey | more direct in alot of ways I think. |
kb9vqf | yes, which we taks as "rude" and "taking charge" |
kb9vqf | so that is why I have not just terminated his subscription |
kb9vqf | *take |
MutantTurkey | for example "you are wrong" really means " i disagree" |
kb9vqf | yes |
MutantTurkey | but, again, at THIS point, it is clear that it is not just the language barrier |
kb9vqf | it does seem that way |
kb9vqf | hence my establishing control |
kb9vqf | (or attempting to) |
MutantTurkey | I think, just constantly maintain that "admin" level of superiority |
kb9vqf | now we have a clear reason to terminate his subscription if he continues being a troll |
MutantTurkey | as in: 1) be polite and respectful 2) be nice, but extremely firm 3) be supportive |
kb9vqf | yes |
MutantTurkey | a moderater truely is one who can diffuse this sort of problem |
kb9vqf | if anyone here thinks I am out of line BTW please let me know (privately) ;-) |
MutantTurkey | if you get on his level, that's the problem. |
kb9vqf | I am trying to defuse the issue and keep him as a potential patch source |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: actually, I would be the first one to say something. |
MutantTurkey | but frankly I am angry at the level of disregard we are being treated with. |
kb9vqf | but if he constantly says "KDE:KDE3 is way much better" then something has to be said to prevent *our* users from jumping ship to a product with no future |
MutantTurkey | that. |
MutantTurkey | right there, is what i was about to say. |
kb9vqf | :) |
MutantTurkey | which is almost why we need to cut the connection, if we can't get patchs |
kb9vqf | I agree |
kb9vqf | the ball is in his court now |
kb9vqf | his response will determine ours |
MutantTurkey | leave it at that. |
kb9vqf | that is what I intend to do |
MutantTurkey | the whole "Thanks!" ending cracked me up |
kb9vqf | I figure why not be nice |
kb9vqf | :) |
MutantTurkey | it's the best approach |
MutantTurkey | I have diffused many a fights, a probable mugging, just by being really nice |
kb9vqf | hehe |
kb9vqf | it's the last thing they expect :) |
kb9vqf | we'll see if it works here |
kb9vqf | likely he'll just go back to lurking for a while |
kb9vqf | he's done this before |
kb9vqf | before the list was logged IIRC |
kb9vqf | so a while ago |
MutantTurkey | I was in a pretty sketchy neighbor hood i recall, and i was approached by a large man, he comes up really aggressive me. the first thing i said (i don't know why) was "yo buddy, do you want some of my skittles?" he was like "yeah blah blah blah" end up with like a twenty minute discussion waiting at the bus. |
kb9vqf | lucky :) |
kb9vqf | it is said that a kind word can turn away wrath... |
MutantTurkey | indeed. |
MutantTurkey | working in retail, it is really true |
MutantTurkey | the #1 step to reduce robbery and theft? being overly nice and friendly. |
kb9vqf | lets the thieves know that you know about them as well :) |
MutantTurkey | yes |
kb9vqf | it's late here...just wanted to let you know that this "discussion" with anixx-suse should be over with as far as I am concerned |
kb9vqf | and also kde* is ported to TQt |
kb9vqf | (except kdebindings, which may not be ported at all) |
kb9vqf | so feel free to compile and fix bugs :) |
kb9vqf | working on the apps now... |
MutantTurkey | okay cool! |
MutantTurkey | I am still working on getting a building system :P |
kb9vqf | I put a notice on the Etherpad regarding kdebindings |
MutantTurkey | could you set up the extra distro category in the bug tracker? |
MutantTurkey | I could dedicate the next few hours to that. |
kb9vqf | Hang on, let me see what's required... |
kb9vqf | want to be an admin on Bugzilla? |
MutantTurkey | yes |
kb9vqf | (since I'm in the management interface anyway) |
MutantTurkey | ok |
MutantTurkey | that way I can just movestuf around. |
kb9vqf | Email address you registered with? (just need the first few characters) |
*kb9vqf has waaayyy too many Bugzilla users | |
MutantTurkey | no idea D: |
MutantTurkey | I can't recall registering |
MutantTurkey | let me register really quick. |
MutantTurkey | mutantturkey@gmail.com |
MutantTurkey | apparently i have registered. |
kb9vqf | ok, there you are |
kb9vqf | done |
kb9vqf | let me create the new product for Ubuntu and Debian... |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: can you PM me my password D: I just got locked out for forgetting it... |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: no, make it a triinty category I think |
kb9vqf | I may be able to reset it |
kb9vqf | but I can't view it |
kb9vqf | category...ok |
kb9vqf | can't you self-reset you rpassword? |
MutantTurkey | will do |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: OK, there are two new categories, ubuntu and debian, under TDE 3.5 |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: OK. |
MutantTurkey | i will review the bugs related. |
kb9vqf | If the distro is not specified move it to Ubuntu please |
MutantTurkey | ? |
MutantTurkey | what if it is not a distro related bug? |
kb9vqf | If it is not clear if the user is under Debian or Ubuntu, choose Ubuntu |
MutantTurkey | oh |
MutantTurkey | but that it is apparent that they are using one of the two? |
kb9vqf | If it is not a distro-specific bug then don't move it to either :) |
MutantTurkey | okay :D |
kb9vqf | then move it to the appropriate place :) |
MutantTurkey | also what ubuntu do we not support? |
kb9vqf | Anything less than Lucid is a WONTFIX |
MutantTurkey | what number is that? haha. |
MutantTurkey | I stopped around 7.10 |
kb9vqf | tell them to test on a later version and reopen the bug if need be |
kb9vqf | 10.04 |
MutantTurkey | ok |
kb9vqf | thanks |
MutantTurkey | will they be notified? |
kb9vqf | just please don't create/rename/delete categories or products without consulting me first |
kb9vqf | yes, they will be sent an Email |
MutantTurkey | obviously. |
MutantTurkey | Ok, that is good then |
MutantTurkey | all I need to do is move stuff around. |
kb9vqf | yes |
kb9vqf | in fact they will get an Email with that information as well |
kb9vqf | so it looks like we are doing something :) |
MutantTurkey | :P |
MutantTurkey | which is good. |
kb9vqf | yes |
MutantTurkey | shuffling paperwork is half of it. |
kb9vqf | indeed |
*kb9vqf is off to catch some slee | |
kb9vqf | *sleep |
kb9vqf | thanks for you work on the project :) |
MutantTurkey | ok |
kb9vqf | *your |
MutantTurkey | no problem. this keeps me busy |
*kb9vqf just cannot type | |
MutantTurkey | obviously, you need to sleep! |
kb9vqf | hehe |
MutantTurkey | I am going to be up for a few. I will start moving stuff now |
kb9vqf | ok |
MutantTurkey | can I make sub categories? maybe for versions? |
MutantTurkey | nvm |
MutantTurkey | I will just modify the title to add the version. |
*kb9vqf will probably wake up to a zillion Emails in his inbox, as he is CCed for everything | |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: There is a field for version |
MutantTurkey | there is an "application verison feiled" |
MutantTurkey | yes. |
kb9vqf | No distro field? |
kb9vqf | there should be one |
kb9vqf | it's a drop down list |
kb9vqf | hmm...I guess not |
kb9vqf | oops |
MutantTurkey | its fine |
kb9vqf | hang on |
kb9vqf | MutantTurkey: It's in the Platform field |
MutantTurkey | ok |
kb9vqf | ignore the two custom fields while I try to delete them |
MutantTurkey | hmmm, I don't think i can assign as WONTFIX? |
kb9vqf | no? |
kb9vqf | RESOVED WONTFIX |
kb9vqf | *RESOLVED |
kb9vqf | that should do it |
MutantTurkey | there we go. |
MutantTurkey | Ok, sorry to be an idiot, I actually gotta split, just got called into work in 4 hours... |
MutantTurkey | gotta sleep. |
kb9vqf | looks good to me so far |
kb9vqf | ok |
MutantTurkey | goodnight. I will keep marking them though. |
kb9vqf | sure |
kb9vqf | gn |
MutantTurkey | you should sleep too |
MutantTurkey | night. |

mutantturkey | kb9vqf: but 10.04 is still supported? (is it reaching the end of its life?) |
mutantturkey | kb9vqf: did we ever remove the Kubuntu branding on KDM/ |
mutantturkey | ? |
kb9vqf | if it isn't gone in svn then it should be removed ASAP{ |
kb9vqf | 10.04 is not reaching EOL yet |

kb9vqf | ? |
kb9vqf | which module/ |
kb9vqf | ? |
MutantTurkey | it can't find an include, could i do a direct include? like "/usr/share/tqtinterface.h" or so? |
MutantTurkey | kdebase |
MutantTurkey | it can't find dbus-tqt-1 |
MutantTurkey | but i've installed it |
kb9vqf | samelian can probably help with that |
kb9vqf | he rewrote my detection script some time ago |
*kb9vqf is not even sure it works right now as he has not rebuilt kdebase for a few weeks | |
kb9vqf | sorry I can't be much help |
MutantTurkey | i'll poke around |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | I know the source itself compiles, so the problem should be limited to the build system |
MutantTurkey | yeah |
MutantTurkey | okay well i see the problem |
MutantTurkey | it isn't picking up my include |
*K`zan has joined #trinity-desktop | |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: mostly just moving stuff, then letting you decide if its still a problem or wontfix etc |
kb9vqf | ok |
MutantTurkey | still won't build hmmm |
MutantTurkey | i'll have to ask samelian |
MutantTurkey | kb9vqf: any experience with X11 forwarding? |
kb9vqf | no |
kb9vqf | sorry |
MutantTurkey | alright, it's weirdly slower than i expected, I have huge bandwidth and it is still crawling |
MutantTurkey | I think these newer toolkits like qt and gtk don't really care about it |
kb9vqf | no they don't |
kb9vqf | Qt4 in particular is horrid |
kb9vqf | even with VNC/RDP |
kb9vqf | that is one reason I will keep Qt3 compilability around as long as possible ;-) |
MutantTurkey | good thinking |
MutantTurkey | though, I do make the argument for completely dropping the whole idea of X11 "servers/client" layout |
MutantTurkey | X11 forwarding should be an extension, not an integral part |
MutantTurkey | because basically the way it works now, there is so much latency, because of the original design. |
MutantTurkey | ah well |
*kb9vqf notes that the cyclic nature of computing styles seems to be swinging things back to the mainframe/clients model versus the individual desktop / desktop aggregate model so popular in the past two decades | |
kb9vqf | so the X11 server/client may come back in vogue |

cpatrick08 | is the nightly and nightly denendences supposed to give you a update to tde 3.5.13 or just the few packages it shows it it going to update |
kb9vqf | It should update you to 3.5.13, but there is a wrinkle: Not only is the repository incomplete (as 3.5.13 is still being developed), but the packages now have a -trinity suffix. |
kb9vqf | An auto-upgrade package will be provided when 3.5.13 is actually released |
cpatrick08 | ok thanks |
kb9vqf | np |
kb9vqf | sorry it isn't available yet; it's a lot of work :) |

Space_Man | Z_God: I'm still using 3.5.11 on ubuntu 9.10 and I have never seen that problem |
Space_Man | I don't have an iPlod but I do use external drives and sticks |
Space_Man | iPod* |
Z_God | Space_Man: ok, I wonder what it could be then, maybe smth with lucid's kernel |
Space_Man | I don't know |
Space_Man | I've just tried inserting and removing a usb stick |
Space_Man | the icon always disappears |
Space_Man | it doesn't matter if I 'safely remove' or not |
Z_God | I think for him it just shows up multiple times straight from the first time |
Space_Man | maybe the ipod has 4 partitions |
MutantTurkey | yeah whats up? |
MutantTurkey | Z_God: hrmmm, like multiple partitions or not? |
MutantTurkey | can you do: ls /dev/ | grep "sd" for me? |
Z_God | MutantTurkey: sec, I just asked him :) |
Z_God | sda |
Z_God | sda1 |
Z_God | sda2 |
Z_God | sda3 |
Z_God | sdb |
Z_God | sdc |
Z_God | sdd |
Z_God | sde |
Z_God | sdf |
Z_God | sdf1 |
Z_God | sdf2 |
MutantTurkey | what else is plugged in? |
MutantTurkey | how many hard drives? |
Z_God | only one |
Z_God | so that seems correct |
Z_God | sda is his main disk |
Z_God | sdf his ipod |
MutantTurkey | what is sdb sdc sdd and sde? |
MutantTurkey | that sometimes happesn when people forget to properly unmount and so the /dev/ names stick around haha. |
MutantTurkey | so sdf/ is the device name obviously, and he has 2 partitions |
MutantTurkey | thats why 2 appear on his desktop |
Z_God | but he gets 4 |
Z_God | and the first partition shouldn't show up, because it's not recognised |
Z_God | this works correctly for me as well, (ipod always have a first partition with an unknown type and a second partition with the data) |
Z_God | ipods* |
Z_God | no idea what the other devices would be |
MutantTurkey | first partition never should |
MutantTurkey | what happens when he clicks on them? |
MutantTurkey | first ask him to reboot? ok |
Z_God | I think then things get messy |
MutantTurkey | because it might be that thing i said earlier about not properly unmounting |
Z_God | I think he does the properly, let me ask |
MutantTurkey | no, reboot. |
MutantTurkey | solves all problems ^_^ |
MutantTurkey | I have work in a minutes, I must leave. if problem persists post it on the ML i can email from my work |
Z_God | alright, thank you very much for checking |
Z_God | good luck with your work! |
Z_God | I just let him use the eject command to eject sdf |
Z_God | that lets all disappear |
Z_God | and replugging it in brings all 4 back |

Revan199 | kdetoys-trinity: Depends: kteatime-trinity (>= 4:3.5.12-0debian7+r1158451) but it is not going to be installed. |
Revan199 | for example |
Space_Man | the best person to answer this is kb9vqf, but his client quit 3 hours ago |
Revan199 | why for removing kteatime I have to remove all kdetoys? |
Space_Man | that is also odd |
Space_Man | ask on the mailing list and lots more people will see it |
Revan199 | Space_Man: I don't like mailing lists because of my English |
Space_Man | so far, your English is good enough |
Space_Man | don't worry about it |
Revan199 | oh well |
Revan199 | also, in Debian Lenny KDE3 there is no layout bug |
Revan199 | maybe you can look for patches there |
Revan199 | I almost forgot to ask: why Trinity requires sudo with NOPASSWD? |
Revan199 | kb9vqf is a Debian maintainer of Trinity? |
Space_Man | yes, I think kb9vqf is the debian maintainer |
Revan199 | Space_Man: Can he be found in the XMPP/Jabber? |
Space_Man | I don't know |
Revan199 | sad |
Space_Man | kb9vqf is Timothy Pearson, he is very active on the mailing lists |
Revan199 | Timothy? He is russian? |
Space_Man | no American |

F1aw | Hello world! I have a question / suggestion related to trinity desktop. Is there any way I can communicate that? Would anyone care? |
F1aw | Since the forums are closed I thought I would ask here. |
F1aw | Just went to this channel logs and realized how it works. That's actually a pretty clever way to avoid all the spam, yet be able to get feedback from the users. |
F1aw | Anyways, here is my suggestion. On the project's about page I would like to see the clear and concise explanation why this project started and what are its main goals. I would like an explanation of what you mean by "KDE3.5 computing style", from the standpoint of the user that has never heard of KDE. Are you seriously expecting everyone to learn the difference between all KDE versions prior to visiting your site? Also listing |
kb9vqf | You got cut off |
kb9vqf | And yes, as KDE3.5 goes further into the past we may end up having to revise that page to be more specific |
*K`zan has joined #trinity-desktop | |
F1aw | Thanks, I was just thinking that people that never used KDE will be quite confused |

raevyn | Hello :) |
kb9vqf | Hi |
raevyn | I have to say I am totally in LOVE with Trinity! I got ubuntu with GNOME and its okay but I mised KDE 2/3 and when I found Trinty, mu life bega new LOL |
raevyn | There are a few things in GNOME i did prefer though. Mainly in the appearance. For example, do you know how to change the height of th desktop meny bar? Its thicker than in GNOME and I would like to make it smaller |
Space_Man | raevyn: with your konsole "kcontrol" and look for desktop / panels / size |
raevyn | okie i tried that... and that desktop menu panel doesnt show as an option. only the one I have at the bottom for tasks |
raevyn | if you go to the option above "panels" called "behaviour" there is an option to put a menu bar at the top of the screen, which is what I have selected. Btu if I can create a panel that incorporates the menu of file/new/bookmarks/ etc and my own I would do it. I just dont know how |
Space_Man | you can right click on each panel (or taskbar) and select "Configure Panel..." |
raevyn | when i right click on the top dekstop menu panel, I am not presented with that option |
raevyn | is there maybe a confgiuration file for that specific menu bar I can edit to change its height? |
kb9vqf | raevyn: You should be able to select the secondary panel in the drop down list in the Configure->Arrangement view |
kb9vqf | you can change the size of the secondary panel once it is selected in that configuration dialog |
raevyn | im not sure I am being understood... everyone doesnt know it isnt a normal panel right? Its called the menubar.. I dont have a configruation option in it. |
kb9vqf | OK, sorry |
kb9vqf | I am not familiar with the menubar |
raevyn | its okay.. i think its confusing. It looks like a panel yet its not not really. It even operates like one mostly.. other than being able to configure it |
kb9vqf | and it doesn't show up in the drop down list that appears when you right click on the main panel and go to "Configure Panel->Arrangement->Settings For:"? |
raevyn | it doesnt nope. |
kb9vqf | ok, good to know |
kb9vqf | sounds like a bug inherited from KDE3.5 |
kb9vqf | namely a missing configuration dialog/setting somewhere |
kb9vqf | also glad to hear you like our work :) |
*K`zan has joined #trinity-desktop | |
raevyn | :) definatley! other than that which I hope will be bug fixed hehe.. are there any user switch applets for trinity? oh and, do you know how I can switch to using KDM instead of GDM? now, I have to let you know that I havae gnome, kde 4 AND trinity installed. |
kb9vqf | The desktop lock (kscreensaver) and the TDE Menu (kicker) both allow user switching when you use KDM to login |
kb9vqf | under Ubuntu you can go to a terminal and run this: |
kb9vqf | dpkg-reconfigure kdm-kde3 |
kb9vqf | then select kdm-kde3 from the options list |
kb9vqf | you will probably have to use sudo |
kb9vqf | so the entire command becomes |
kb9vqf | sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm-kde3 |
kb9vqf | Also, please file a bug report at http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net with a detailed description of what is going wrong or missing so that the Trinity development team can reproduce and repair the problem |
*DeeTah_ has joined #trinity-desktop | |
DeeTah_ | hi guys |
DeeTah_ | got a weird issue |
DeeTah_ | i installed wicd on my newly-born trinity desktop installation under debian and wicd-gtk runs twice, the only entry about its autostart being in /etc/xdg/autostart |
DeeTah_ | any ideas wtf? |
raevyn | to kb9vqf - thank you i will file a bug report and try to reconfigure. one other question.. where do i go to get the source for trinity? |
kb9vqf | http://www.trinitydesktop.org/releases.php |
kb9vqf | Or the development version from svn at svn.kde.org; we are in branches/trinity |
raevyn | ty :) |
kb9vqf | DeeTah no clue sorry--I have never had dual-launched apps on my installations |
kb9vqf | you may want to try our mailing list |
kb9vqf | there are other Debian users there that are more familiar with Debian's quirks than I am |
DeeTah_ | hm, atm i'm not even sure which app do I have a problem with |
DeeTah_ | i mean, it could be wicd, it could be xorg, it could be trinity... |
DeeTah_ | thought i'd drop in here and ask you just in case you heard of this problem ;) |
DeeTah_ | btw, keep up the awesome work! :) |
kb9vqf | thanks, glad you appreciate it :) |
DeeTah_ | you're welcome. btw, is there any python interface for trinity kicker widget development? |
DeeTah_ | i think i have an idea for quite a useful widget - at least useful for me ;) |
kb9vqf | There is a python interface, but I don't know how much longer it can be maintained with our current development team |
kb9vqf | kdebindings and python-kde3 need some serious help |
kb9vqf | even in KDE4 they are nearly unmaintainable |
DeeTah_ | you must seriously lack devs |
kb9vqf | python and java devs yes |
kb9vqf | that and Ruby |
DeeTah_ | and koffice? |
kb9vqf | essentially, I can keep kdebindings compiling under Qt3 well enough, but to move to Qt4 is a major headache |
kb9vqf | koffice has already been ported to TQt4 and it will be kept as-is in the tree |
kb9vqf | that is, supported to some extent |
DeeTah_ | btw, you trying to port kde3 to qt4 or something? |
kb9vqf | TQt4 specificall |
kb9vqf | *specifically |
DeeTah_ | some compability layer? |
kb9vqf | it's an abstraction layer to prevent any more rewrites based on Nokia's API whims with Qt4 |
kb9vqf | Just wait for KDE5 ;-) |
kb9vqf | Qt5 is coming, and KDE is unprotected, meaning major rewrites will occur *again* |
kb9vqf | Hopefully TQt will make it so that only the compatibility layer needs a rewrite, instead of the 3GB+ of code in the Trinity codebase |
DeeTah_ | pretty scary |
kb9vqf | I know |
kb9vqf | KDE needs to be careful here |
kb9vqf | IMHO |
kb9vqf | they can help to give Linux a really bad name |
DeeTah_ | hm, so it might be that someday I'll see trinity run on qt4? |
kb9vqf | Yes |
kb9vqf | That is the idea |
DeeTah_ | what's the progress so far? |
kb9vqf | TQt4 porting is complete except for kdebindings |
kb9vqf | which means that it compiles under Qt4, but crashes and has general nastiness when actually *run* under Qt4 |
kb9vqf | The same codebase compiles under both Qt3 and Qt4 BTW |
DeeTah_ | sounds awesome |
kb9vqf | so a fix for a Qt3 bug will also fix a Qt4 bug and vice versa |
kb9vqf | :) |
DeeTah_ | so it's just bugfixing now? |
kb9vqf | For 3.5.13, yes |
kb9vqf | TQt4 is not a runtime target until after 3.6.0 |
kb9vqf | 3.6.0 is intended to be a rock solid system on Qt3 with modern libraries (i.e. no HAL, etc.) |
DeeTah_ | on qt3 or tqt4? |
kb9vqf | On Qt3 |
kb9vqf | 3.6.0+ would start focussing on making Qt4 work properly |
kb9vqf | (stably/faster) |
kb9vqf | Nokia is still working on Qt4 |
DeeTah_ | any timelines on porting trinity to tqt4? |
kb9vqf | and each release adds back mussing functionality, making it easier to implelent TQt4 |
kb9vqf | *missing |
kb9vqf | Trinity is already ported |
kb9vqf | TQt4 is not stable yet |
DeeTah_ | oh, i see. |
DeeTah_ | both for qt4 and qt3, or just qt3? |
kb9vqf | Trinity will currently compile under Qt3 and Qt4 |
kb9vqf | same code, different version of TQt |
kb9vqf | Trinity will run perfectly under TQt3, but TQt4 is unstable |
kb9vqf | Is that more clear? |
kb9vqf | :) |
DeeTah_ | yeah, now i see |
kb9vqf | Qt4 in particular has nasty graphics problems as many who use KDE4 know |
kb9vqf | i.e. Qt4 can be orders of magnitude slower than Qt3 for common graphics operations |
kb9vqf | especially raster stuff |
kb9vqf | So I hope Nokia smooths things out more before we have to go live with TQt4 |
kb9vqf | This is one reason for the delay in release acually |
kb9vqf | I am waiting to see what Nokia fixes while we fix our bugs in the bugtracker ;-) |
DeeTah_ | i wouldn't expect too much |
kb9vqf | I know |
kb9vqf | But I can always hope |
DeeTah_ | personally don't trust them :P |
kb9vqf | Realistically we will need Qt3 for a long time into the future |
kb9vqf | as an option that is |
kb9vqf | Hence TQt |
kb9vqf | Qt3 works very well over VNC/RDP |
kb9vqf | Qt4 does NOT |
kb9vqf | etc. |
DeeTah_ | yeah, I noticed that |
DeeTah_ | hell, thanks for the update, but i gotta go |
kb9vqf | np |
kb9vqf | anytime :) |
DeeTah_ | cya and goodluck with the project! i'd love to see a lite Qt4 DE :D |
kb9vqf | Isn't that an oxymoron ;-) |
DeeTah_ | dunno, but i understand that's what you're working on |
kb9vqf | yes |
kb9vqf | as light as possible |
kb9vqf | but Qt4 is hardly light :-P |

raevyn | hi again! so i have encountered another problem. When i try to run the command "konsole" it pull sup the konsole in kde 4, not the one in trinity. But in root, it has both in the menu with the command of konsole and somehow it knows how to pull up kde 4 and kde 3 konsoles! Is there like a direct link to the kde 3 konsole I can create? I dont like kde 4 version |

raevyn | Hi :) I asked this yesterday but I had to end up logging out before I heard any thoughts so, I have to reask it again. Has anyone had issues running pidgin in TDE? It seems to work fine in GNOME and KDE4 but not in TDE.. it tries to start then fails :( |
K`zan | raevyn: I am not familiar with the app in question, but if it is a kde app, make sure you get the kde3 version of it. I am not involved with the devs here other than watching :). Try starting it from a terminal and see what you get, the devs will need that to make any sense out of the problem. HTH. |
raevyn | oh good idea.. i will try that. and i just noticed that since i have kde 4 and kde 3 installed, some of my graphical windows are overlapping. For example, when i save an image form the internet the box that pops up is themed like kde 4. Does anyone know how to completely isolate the desktops? |
raevyn | oh and k'zan, it gives a segmentation fault |

So, that makes me think there is osmehting odd with my computer. Does anyone know what that could be? |
kb9vqf | theme overlaps? |

NeKit | is there any chance it'll work on ARM Gentoo? |
kb9vqf | Haven't tried any ARM builds due to a lack of hardware, although I have been curious enough that once 3.5.13 is out I might try an ARM build on a virtual CPU... |
kb9vqf | since ARM seems to be the next big thing for netbooks, etc. |
kb9vqf | and Trinity would be perfect for that task due to its light resource needs :) |
NeKit | I'm trying to build it under QEMU right now for using with http://www.dealextreme.com/p/7-0-tft-lcd-android-2-2-via-8650-cpu-wifi-umpc-netbook-black-349-79mhz-2gb-3-usb-sd-lan-70760?r=88474882 |
kb9vqf | Is it working? |
kb9vqf | If you run into any build errors send them my way and I may be able to help..... |
NeKit | only building qt3 right now |
kb9vqf | ok |
NeKit | I had to apply http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/gitweb/?p=qt3.git;a=blob_plain;f=qt-x11-free-3.3.7-arm.patch |
kb9vqf | NeKit: Please let me know here if that is the only patch needed |
kb9vqf | For Qt3 that is |
kb9vqf | if so then I will apply it to our Qt3 trunk branch |
raevyn | okay kb9vqf, I have a screenshot showing what it is doing when I save an image from my web browser and what it should be :) |
kb9vqf | ok, send it to imagebin or similar... |
raevyn | oh you mean just upload it? I can use one of my customer websites so you can see would that be okay? |
*K`zan has joined #trinity-desktop | |
kb9vqf | raevyn: it looks like somehow you have the GTK->KDE4 file picker interface installed and running |
kb9vqf | Is this an Ubuntu system? |
raevyn | oh sorry wrong window. yes it is ubutu.. |
kb9vqf | Ubuntu installed some kind of KDE4 integration with Firefox by default |
kb9vqf | I don't know what it's called |
kb9vqf | but a search in Synaptic or other package manager might turn it up |
raevyn | would that also affect opera? |
raevyn | and explain why while running a vm it isnt happening? |
NeKit | p1183307 is rather old? |
kb9vqf | raevyn: Possibly, as the KDE4 integration may not have been installed when you installed Ubuntu in the VM, and Opera would be unaffected in either case |
kb9vqf | NeKit? |
kb9vqf | Since Qt3 was dropped upstream, even old patches were not included in the official Qt 3.3.x tarballs |
kb9vqf | that is what I am trying to rectify now, by providing a central location with the latest Qt3 code with patches already applied |
raevyn | kb9vqf - I foudn the package you were referring to and I removed it... firefox seems to be acting normal again though opera is still having the odd theme issue occuring |
kb9vqf | see if there is another, similar package for Opera |
raevyn | hm.. okie let me see what i can find. if not, do you know if I can remove kde 4 without wrecking tde? |
raevyn | and no i dont see anything for opera that would be like kde integration as there was for firefox although I had to install opera though ppa aas the ubuntu software lists didnt have it |
raevyn | okay... i am feeling it is best to remove kde 4.. as I finding some significant diffs between my two systems. Does anyone know if that will break trinity to do that/ |
kb9vqf | No it will not |
kb9vqf | I have no traces of the bloaty KDE4 system on any of my TDE systems ;-) |
kb9vqf | (can't spare the RAM or disk space!) |
raevyn | lol.. well i want to make sure because i installed kde 4 before tde so I wasnt sure, after this odd graphical incident and the one a few days ago in which typing konsole made the kde 4 konsole come up not tde's, that links or whatever wont get broken |
kb9vqf | no, there shouldn't be any problems |
kb9vqf | if there are just ask us here |
raevyn | sorry i had to step away. Okie i will try it |
kb9vqf | NeKit: Was that one Qt3 patch you mentioned sufficient to enable the ARM build of Qt3? |
NeKit | still compiling |
NeKit | but ebuild used vanilla qt3 with different other patches |
NeKit | I'm talking about https://github.com/serghei/kde-trinity/blob/master/x11-libs/qt/qt-3.3.8b-r4.ebuild |
kb9vqf | ok |
kb9vqf | NeKit: I created a bug report here: http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=484 |
tbottu | Bug 484 enh, P5, ---, kb9vqf, NEW, Qt3 needs patching to build under ARM |
kb9vqf | if you find any more patches are needed please post them there :) |
NeKit | how much time does it normally take to compile Qt3? |
kb9vqf | On my systems it takes less than an hour |
kb9vqf | on a low power ARM or virtual CPU I could easily see a day |
NeKit | finally, it compiled successfully |
NeKit | ~4 hours |
