[00:38] <bdmurray> kirkland: in case I haven't said it this month I love ubuntu documentation search
[00:38] <trashguy> ubuntu docs are on par with liek FreeBSDs hand book
[00:39] <trashguy> most documentation fails
[00:41] <ph8> i'm not sure i'd agree with that
[00:41] <trashguy> which aspect
[00:41] <flyback>  sgrover
[00:42] <ph8> what documentation fails?
[00:42] <flyback> ubunt 6.06.2 also known as uCUNTu 6.66
[00:42] <trashguy> u ever read a netware manuel
[00:46] <slangasek> flyback: you again?
[00:46] <flyback> yeah
[00:46] <slangasek> !ops
[00:46] <flyback> ubottu, what the canuck is your problem
[00:47] <flyback> ubottu, botsnack
[00:47] <flyback> :)
[00:47]  * flyback feels better
[00:47] <trashguy> lol
[00:47] <trashguy> i ran redhat forever
[00:48] <trashguy> fedora is just not useable anymore
[00:48] <flyback> me too
[00:48] <slangasek> infinity, mathiaz: ping
[00:48] <flyback> f9 has pissed me off beyond reasoning
[00:48] <trashguy> yes
[00:48] <flyback> this box is getting hosed soon
[00:48] <mathiaz> slangasek: hello
[00:48] <trashguy> i since migrated my desktop to ubuntu
[00:48] <flyback> at least uCUNTu actually runs shit like vmware
[00:48] <trashguy> and i been pushign a zimbra migration atw ork
[00:48] <trashguy> and its not so nice with FreeBSD so i had to find an alternative
[00:48] <slangasek> mathiaz: note flyback's comments; he's been asked before to behave himself in other channels
[00:50] <flyback> i'm bitter when I been burned by crappy products
[00:51] <nalioth> let us be civil
[00:51] <slangasek> that's hardly an excuse for repeated use of inappropriate language
[00:51] <infinity> flyback: Please watch the language.
[00:52] <flyback> ok
[00:52]  * trashguy didnt notice anything
[00:52] <flyback> fair enough there
[00:54] <trashguy> only issue i have had with ubuntu so far
[00:54] <trashguy> had to make a bunch of symbolic links ot get veritas netbackup to work
[01:05] <hotmonkeyluv> How can I configure the network interfaces after installation?
[01:08] <lukehasnoname>  /etc/network/interfaces
[01:11] <Stainer> anyone familiar with setting up a safe host to use a mailserver when you have a dynamic ip address?
[01:19] <hotmonkeyluv> lukehasnoname:  thanks!
[01:22] <hotmonkeyluv> lukehasnoname:  hmmm, didn't seem to work
[01:22] <hotmonkeyluv> says command not found
[01:23] <slangasek> that's a file to edit, not a command
[01:26] <hotmonkeyluv> ah
[01:26] <hotmonkeyluv> i, uh... I knew that...
[01:52] <flyback> interfaces and also iftab in 6.06 if you are doing disk clones

[01:52] <flyback> CANUCK
[01:53] <jkakar> Uh.  Hi.
[01:54] <flyback> that's for william shatner's greatest hits and other canadian acts of terrorism
[03:17] <randomlogic78> I would like to prevent users from logging in via ssh and allow only users in a particular group.  I've edited /etc/ssh/sshd_config  and added the line "AllowGroups groupname" but any user can still ssh
[03:27] <Deeps> randomlogic78: man page suggests that default is to allow all, so maybe you need a deny all rule first?
[03:27] <Deeps> (man sshd_config)
[03:30] <randomlogic78> thanks... deny all didn't work... but it turned out I was editing ssh_config instead of sshd_config
[05:04]  * the_silent wb all

[05:16] <the_silent> iwant built new server on intelmainboard xeon s5000sata server
[05:17] <the_silent> so can u tel me the tutorial about update driver mainboard
[05:17]  * the_silent :)
[05:18] <kgoetz> two options: all drivers are in the kernel. swap os -> eddit grub -> boot -> profit
[05:19] <kgoetz> 2nd option: you need to change something (eg, 32-> 64 bit) -> backup existins erver -> install clean on new server -> restore backup -> reconfigure new server -> profit
[05:19] <the_silent> hmmm
[05:19] <the_silent> nice
[05:19] <kgoetz> s/something/something major
[05:20] <the_silent> can u teell me where i can find this tutorian on website

[05:20] <the_silent> to update driver
[05:20] <the_silent> main board
[05:20] <kgoetz> do you need to update it?
[05:21] <the_silent> yes
[05:21] <the_silent> i mean update hardware
[05:21] <the_silent> not os
[05:21] <kgoetz> i dont follow
[05:21] <the_silent> coz the os was using from old main board
[05:22] <the_silent> use cloning
[05:22] <the_silent> like that
[05:22] <kgoetz> how do you know you'll need to update the driver?
[05:22] <the_silent> hmm
[05:23] <the_silent> i dont know
[05:23] <the_silent> i just scared
[05:23] <the_silent> if the hardware need driver from new mainboard
[05:24] <the_silent> oh i mean the u buntu server nedd driver from new mainboard
[05:24] <the_silent> sorry
[05:24] <the_silent> i have been confiuse

[07:09] <[Solaris]> I want to diagnose a problem i have with a raid 0 (has win installed on it) and all members are offline
[07:10] <[Solaris]> are there tools in ubuntu to allow me to investigate ?
[07:10] <[Solaris]> and possibility repair?
[07:15] <ropetin> [Solaris]: My initial feeling is no.  What happened though?
[07:17] <[Solaris]> had a faulty memory stick... but it screwed up my raid on a hard reset
[07:17] <[Solaris]> made all my sata disks go offline .. so i have no raid volume
[07:19] <ropetin> Striped or mirrored?
[07:19] <[Solaris]> raid0
[07:20] <slangasek> that would be entirely dependent on the details of your RAID implementation; Linux software RAID is definitely not compatible with any Windows software RAID
[07:20] <ropetin> Oh yeah, you said that, striped
[07:21] <ropetin> You're pretty much screwed I think.  If Windows doesn't recognize it
[07:21] <[Solaris]> heh windows doesn't even boot
[07:21] <slangasek> and if it's hardware RAID, you don't have any diagnostic access from the OS at all unless the controller can be set to a non-RAID mode
[07:21] <[Solaris]> so it won't see it
[07:21] <ropetin> Striped boot partition?
[07:21] <ropetin> Is that even possible?
[07:21] <[Solaris]> i thikn it got screwed up when i was playing the MBR with the faulty memmory
[07:24] <ropetin> I'm thinking screwed, yeah
[07:25] <[Solaris]> erm is there a tool that i can rewrite the mbr on the device (bios sees the drives) and maybe that wil lfix the issue?
[07:25] <ropetin> Is your boot partition striped?  (I didn't think Windows could do that)
[07:25] <[Solaris]> yea
[07:26] <[Solaris]> (atleast thats what i am thinking)
[07:26] <[Solaris]> was all raid0 disk except the hd3 which was a solitair drive
[07:29] <[Solaris]> erm there is a tool called mpt-status
[07:29] <[Solaris]> wonder if that would work
[07:30] <kgoetz> ropetin: yes, striped boot partition is posible
[07:33] <ropetin> kgoetz: Sounds veeeery risky without backup
[07:34] <kgoetz> ropetin: striped raid is *always* very risky.
[07:36] <[Solaris]> well looks like i am going have to destruck that drive
[07:36] <ropetin> True!
[07:37] <[Solaris]> so think i should step away from raid0 and use some other raid?
[07:38] <[Solaris]> perhaps go with a raid5 ?
[07:39] <kgoetz> [Solaris]: depends on your context
[07:39] <kgoetz> and backup habbits
[07:41] <[Solaris]> well i didn't even get a chance to backup the first time
[07:41] <[Solaris]> fresh install of both OS on a new system
[07:41] <[Solaris]> so destruction isn't bad, just a lose of a few hours
[07:45]  * delcoyote hi
[07:52] <[Solaris]> erm i can do a raid 0 0+1 1 and 5
[07:52] <[Solaris]> might even be able to do raid 2 (not sure yet)
[08:16] <_ruben> raid0 isnt even raid
[08:17] <kgoetz> valid point
[08:17] <_ruben> *Redundant* Array of Inexpensive Disks
[08:17]  * kgoetz isnt convinced the discs in his servers here are "Inexpensive"
[08:18] <_ruben> relatively speaking they are
[08:18] <_ruben> 450GB SAS disks are expensive .. but 2TB SAS disks (if they'd exist) would be much more expensive ... :p
[08:18] <kgoetz> relatively isnt very helpful - relative to you, i'm a long way away
[08:19] <_ruben> hehe ;)
[08:19] <kgoetz> _ruben: 750GB sas drives, lots of. 1TB sas drives, some of
[08:19] <[Solaris]> these are 400GB SATA drives LO
[08:19] <kgoetz>  cost ++
[08:19] <[Solaris]> so not all that expensive
[08:19] <_ruben> 750GB and 1TB sas disks already exist?
[08:20] <_ruben> (i dont monitor developments in that area that closely)
[08:20] <kgoetz> pretty sure they are sas. perhaps they are standard sata drives in hot-swap enclosures, but i'm prtty sure they are sas
[08:20] <_ruben> installed 3 servers with 6x450G sas disks the other day
[08:20] <_ruben> 750G and 1TB sounds rather sata'ish to me
[08:20]  * kgoetz cbf looking at the spec sheet right now
[08:20] <_ruben> sas and sata are interchangable ..
[08:21] <_ruben> :)
[08:21] <kgoetz> sort of :) sas can mean 'sa scsi' too
[08:22] <_ruben> sas = serial attached scsi .. which is a scsi disk with sata connector :)
[08:22] <kgoetz> _ruben: btw, i think your correct - the drives are probably sata
[08:22] <_ruben> thats what i meant with interchangable
[08:23] <kgoetz> aaah, my bad. misunderstanidng :)
[08:23] <kgoetz> *sp
[08:26] <_ruben> happens to the best of us :)
[08:27] <kgoetz> :)

[12:43] <Gestahlt> Hi
[12:43] <Gestahlt> is there a deb represitory for freePBX?
[13:06] <alien> hello, did canonical think about supporting openvz better, instead of just KVM?
[13:07] <alien> imho, openvz is much more suited to server usage than both kvm and xen, due to its low overhead
[13:08] <alien> and it supports most of the goodies that both xen and kvm support, like live migration
[13:14] <Koon> alien: you should ask that question in #ubuntu-virt
[13:15] <alien> thanks Koon
[14:04] <Gestahlt> uhm
[14:04] <Gestahlt> Is there a freeBPX deb package for ubuntu 8.04 server
[14:04] <Gestahlt> ?
[14:08] <ropetin> Not as far as I know, no
[14:17] <Gestahlt> damn
[14:20] <rgl> hello
[14:21] <ivoks> hi
[14:37] <rgl> I have a box with ubuntu edgy (6.10), and I want to upgrade it to latest 8.04.1.  I'm trying to follow https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FeistyUpgrades , so I did use the old-releases.ubuntu.com repository and used the do-release-upgrade command, but it failed, can you look at http://dpaste.com/80688/ ? do you have any ideia how to fix this?   better yet, can't I just update my sources.list file and use apt-get dist-upgrade?
[14:38] <Kamping_Kaiser> no, you cant
[14:40] <Kamping_Kaiser> edgy isnt hosted on archive.u.c anymore - this error may be a bug in the upgrade tool, or some user error (i havent used it, i cant comment)
[14:41] <rgl> yes, its at old-releases.ubuntu.com
[14:41] <Kamping_Kaiser> which is clearly not where the upgrade thingy was trying to download from :)
[14:42] <rgl> so what should I do?
[14:42] <rgl> the correct output from the upgrade tool is at http://ruilopes.com/tmp/output.txt
[14:43] <Kamping_Kaiser> i guess you can hang around, perhaps someone with more experiance an help you
[14:45] <rgl> its kinda lame apt-get dist-upgrade does not work :(
[14:45] <Kamping_Kaiser> personally, i agree.
[14:46] <Kamping_Kaiser> i've not had to upgrade any ubuntu servers, so i cant comment on wether it works or not
[14:46] <rgl> oh well, my only other option is to install a fresh 8.04.1 and migrate stuff arround.
[14:49] <maswan> dist-upgrade might work just fine, but chances are that some new packages expected won't get pulled in, corner cases might get broken, etc, etc.
[14:54] <rgl> oh, I'm not finding the ubuntu support timeline thingy;  its the doc that mentioned the different support times, eg, edgy has 18 month support, LTS 5 years, etc.   do you known where is it?
[14:56] <rgl> ah found it at http://www.markshuttleworth.com/archives/146 *G*
[14:56] <rgl> well, kinda of, that is only for stuff after 8.04
[14:57] <Kamping_Kaiser> perhaps a link off herehttp://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/serveredition
[14:58] <Kamping_Kaiser> perhaps a link off here http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/serveredition
[15:42] <frith> hello, can anyone point me in the right direction for dell omsa packages?
[15:42] <frith> that is if they exist
[15:45] <kaushal> hi
[15:46] <kaushal> how can i use upstart
[15:46] <kaushal> I have edited the files under /etc/event.d/
[15:47] <kaushal> what would be the next step
[15:52] <kaushal> when i run initctl reload it does not work
[15:57] <rgl> what do you mean kaushal ?
[15:58] <kaushal> rgl: it says invalid option
[15:58] <rgl> I still have no ideia what are you talking about
[16:01] <kaushal> rgl: I am talking about upstart init daemon
[16:03] <rgl> kaushal, eg. what did you do? and what you expected to happen?
[16:04] <rgl> kaushal, there an #upstart channel too
[16:13] <mathiaz> Koon: nagios3 seeded
[16:13] <Koon> mathiaz: kewl
[16:13] <mathiaz> kirkland: I've also added partman-auto-raid to the installer
[16:13] <kirkland> mathiaz: cool
[16:14] <mathiaz> kirkland: that means we'll be able to preseed raid installation to test boot from degraded RAID :D
[16:14] <Koon> mathiaz: i'll have some free time next week, if there is any area you want tested, let me know. Otherwise I'll do some generic bug triage/cleanup
[16:16] <kirkland> mathiaz: awesome!
[16:16] <kirkland> mathiaz: auto testing
[16:20] <mathiaz> Koon: ok - I'll keep this in mind.
[16:22] <rgl> this is so odd: apt-get --purge remove libusb-0.1-4  wants to remove: gnupg* libusb-0.1-4* ubuntu-keyring*  !!
[16:26] <RediXe> How would I go about keeping a directory on my server in sync with my a directory on my machine?
[16:26] <elventear> Hello. I am looking the netback.c file in the Xen Linux Kernel source. I got the Kernel Source from the repos but that file is missing. Anyone know a way that I can find the source that Ubuntu uses for that file?
[16:29] <zul> elventear: kernel.ubuntu.com
[16:30] <elventear> Thx
[16:31] <ivoks> git clone git://kernel.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ubuntu-intrepid.git
[17:21] <Database> OK, I have a slight problem.
[17:22] <Database> When I try to change my domain name's A record to my server, the host's site responds that it must be an IP address. However, I can't supply one as I'm using No-IP because of my dynamic IP address.
[17:23] <mathiaz> Database: that's because you need define a CNAME instead of a A record
[17:23] <Database> Right, and I have done that.
[17:23] <Database> For www.
[17:24] <Database> I need the domain name without the www. as well.
[17:24] <mathiaz> Database: depending on you dns provider, you may not be able to set a CNAME for you domain name.
[17:25] <Database> I probably can't, then.
[17:25] <Database> So what are the consequences of that?
[17:26] <mathiaz> Database: people won't be able to access the website via domain.com, only via www.domain.com
[17:26] <Database> Bugger.
[17:26] <Database> That is bad.
[17:26] <Database> So there's no way around it?
[17:27] <mathiaz> Database: probably not - you should check with your dns provider.
[17:28] <Database> Alright, thank you.
[17:40] <lukehasnoname> I found a guy who wrote a web server in PHP
[17:46] <lorddarkpat_> I've been following http://flurdy.com/docs/postfix/
[17:46] <lorddarkpat_> to set up  mail servre
[17:46] <lorddarkpat_> will it get me set up?
[18:00] <stoner> lorddarkpat_, im no expert, but looks like it does.. i personally used https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MailServer few weeks ago and it works
[18:03] <lorddarkpat_> thnks, stoner :)
[18:03] <lorddarkpat_> I'm also having DynDNS troubles
[18:03] <lorddarkpat_> apache is not working with it
[18:03] <lorddarkpat_> it should work
[18:06] <lorddarkpat_> thnks, stoner :)
[20:06] <\sh> does anyone work on ubuntu-server and heartbeat2+HA nfs cluster?
[20:08] <\sh> if so..don't trust all docs on the net, telling you to move the /var/lib/nfs/<whatever> dir on a drbd device...that's totally wrong and doesn't work..leave it where it is, and you are clean
[20:13] <lamont> jdstrand: 9.4.2.dfsg.P2-2 uploaded, thanks
[20:33] <jdstrand> lamont: ack
[20:59] <lamont> jdstrand: meh.  re-uploading
[21:06] <lamont> jdstrand: and accepted this time... helps to have the .orig.tar.gz file :-)
[21:06] <jdstrand> heh
[21:07] <jdstrand> lamont: I wasn't sure if LP was slow, so I was being patient :)
[21:09] <lamont> nah - it was me being a muppet


[02:20] <jbwncster> Hi
[02:32] <usr1987> Hi everyone.  I notice an issue in ubuntu.  Under galculator you can't use %... Its seems to affect 1404-current versions
[02:54] <usr1987> why galculator does not have working percentage?
[06:12] <jaggiJ> I have error with mozilla and VLC media player. I download file using mozilla, then navigate to downloaded icon to choose open containing folder, then VLC opens spamming stuff in endless loop. Is it known ?
[06:13] <jaggiJ> I cleaned all caches, cookies, data, etc and recreated error downloading any other file.
[06:31] <jaggiJ> it opens this processes -> https://imgur.com/a/KOiyYBu
[08:12] <krytarik> jaggiJ: https://askubuntu.com/questions/267514/open-containing-folder-in-firefox-does-not-use-my-default-file-manager , https://askubuntu.com/questions/131695/firefoxs-open-folder-opens-gwenview - the range of advice in these two threads should help you, and I'd start with looking at your '~/.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list'

 miserableminter. •shitposter•: ... How to set the resolution of lubuntu to 1366x768 (the recommended resolution for my monitor) if lubuntu and some other distros won't allow me to set the resolution to higher than 1024x768 :(, Can anyone help ?, I can send you the xorg.0.log file
[09:14] <apt-ghetto> what shows `xrandr`?
 wait i ll send you what xrandr shows
 https://ghostbin.com/paste/c33wq
 and here is xorg.0.log
 https://ghostbin.com/paste/hgnaj
[09:35] <apt-ghetto> The X Window system does not recognise the resolution of your screen
[09:36] <apt-ghetto> Maybe it is only a configuration issue
[09:36] <diogenes_> mekschr, what is the expected resolution?
[09:36] <apt-ghetto> Have a look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Monitor_or_Screens#Screen_resolution_is_wrong.2C_no_matter_what_I_do
[09:37] <apt-ghetto> You should create the file "/etc/X11/xorg.conf"
[09:37] <apt-ghetto> and reboot
[09:38] <apt-ghetto> set the right resolution in line `Modes     "1366x768"`
 @diogenes_ [<diogenes_> mekschr, what is the expected resolution?], 1366x768
[09:50] <diogenes_> mekschr, run: inxi - Fx  | curl -F 'f:1=<-' ix.io
[09:51] <diogenes_> share the output
[09:51] <diogenes_> but first
[09:51] <diogenes_> do what apt-ghetto suggested
[09:51] <diogenes_> and if that doesn't work
[09:51] <diogenes_> come back
 this is happening in all linux distros i have tried: Lubuntu, Linux Lite, Linux Mint
 alright wait i ll be back in few minutes

 sorry

[09:56] <diogenes_>  mekschr have you tried apt-ghetto suggestion first?
 pc is currently running linux mint not lubuntu, can i do what he is saying in mint, too ?
[10:00] <diogenes_>  meksch, yes
 i ve made the graphical terminal thing, now what ?
[10:12] <diogenes_> meksch, ok looks like he left
[10:12] <diogenes_> run once again: inxi -Fx | nc termbin.com 9999
[10:12] <diogenes_> share the link here
 http://termbin.com/hpl7n
[10:15] <diogenes_>  meksch, something is wrong with your pastebin, ok then run this: inxi -Fx
[10:16] <diogenes_> then copy all the output to https://paste.ubuntu.com/
[10:16] <diogenes_> make a pase
[10:16] <diogenes_> and share the link here
 ok wait
 https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/F75BfnV6pp/
[10:31] <diogenes_> meksch, ok we can try to make a trick, but i have little time so it will require you to respond more wuickly
[10:31] <diogenes_> quickly*
 ok
[10:34] <diogenes_> meksch, ok so your desired resolution is 1366x768
[10:34] <diogenes_> right?
 yes
[10:34] <diogenes_> run: cvt 1366 768 | nc termbin.com 9999
[10:34] <diogenes_> share the link
 termbin.com/8kru
[10:36] <diogenes_> run: xrandr | grep " connected " | awk '{ print$1 }'
[10:36] <diogenes_> and just paste the output here
[10:36] <diogenes_> in the chat
 DVI-0
[10:39] <diogenes_> run: xrandr --newmode "1368x768_60.00"   85.25  1368 1440 1576 1784  768 771 781 798 -hsync +vsync
[10:39] <diogenes_> and just tell me when done
[10:41] <diogenes_> meksch, sorry got disconnected
[10:41] <diogenes_> so did you run the command?
 done
[10:41] <diogenes_> now run: xrandr --addmode DVI-0 1368x768_60.00
[10:41] <diogenes_> tell me when done
 but this is 1368x768 not 1366x768
[10:42] <diogenes_> oh wait
[10:42] <diogenes_> so your is 1366?
 i typed cvt 1366 768
 it returned 1368x768
[10:43] <diogenes_> ok
[10:43] <diogenes_> let's try this one
[10:43] <diogenes_> did you run:  xrandr --addmode DVI-0 1368x768_60.00
 anyways done
 yes
[10:43] <diogenes_> ok now run: xrandr --output DVI-0 --mode 1368x768_60.00
[10:43] <diogenes_> and it should change the res
 done
[10:45] <diogenes_> has it made any effect?
 yes the resolution is now different
[10:45] <diogenes_> so is it a good res?
 kind of
 there is a thin vertical black line at the right
[10:47] <diogenes_> so if you want this resolution then you need to make a starup sript with the following commands:
[10:47] <diogenes_> xrandr --newmode "1368x768_60.00"   85.25  1368 1440 1576 1784  768 771 781 798 -hsync +vsync
[10:47] <diogenes_> xrandr --addmode DVI-0 1368x768_60.00
[10:47] <diogenes_> xrandr --output DVI-0 --mode 1368x768_60.00
[10:47] <diogenes_> and it will adjust it right after the system strarts
 how to do that
[10:47] <diogenes_> ok i will guide you through
[10:48] <diogenes_> run: touch ~/Documents/resolution-script
[10:49] <diogenes_> tell me when done
 done
[10:50] <diogenes_> now run: pluma (or what is the lubuntu text editor name)  ~/Documents/resolution-script
[10:51] <diogenes_> it will open a blank document
 emm i m using linux mint xfce right now
[10:52] <diogenes_> then it should be: xed ~/Documents/resolution-script
[10:52] <diogenes_> and it will open that document
 done
[10:53] <diogenes_> in that document write the following:
[10:53] <diogenes_> #!/bin/bash
[10:53] <diogenes_> xrandr --newmode "1368x768_60.00"   85.25  1368 1440 1576 1784  768 771 781 798 -hsync +vsync

[11:13] <diogenes_> ok now run: xrand --size 1024x768
[11:13] <diogenes_> it will change your res to a smaller one
[11:13] <diogenes_> sorry wrong command
[11:13] <diogenes_> xrandr --size 1024x768
[11:13] <diogenes_> this one ^^^
[11:13] <diogenes_> tell me when done
 done
[11:14] <diogenes_> did it change?
 yes
[11:14] <diogenes_> now find that new shortcut we created, click on it

 done, it changes
[11:15] <diogenes_> ok now run: cp  ~/.local/share/applications/resolution.desktop ~/.config/autostart

 should i reset what ghetto told me at first ?
 You can delete the created file
 yeah but now the system runs 1368x768 after logging in, what about the loading screen and login screen
 by the way i discovered something that may be related to the problem
 i tried a script called get-edid, and it said that it can't find an accessible edid
[12:03] <apt-ghetto> either the script does not have the executable flag or it is not in a directory listed in $PATH
[19:05] <usr1987> is it know that galculator does not work with %?

[19:20] <wxl> !zesty
[19:20] <wxl> :)
[19:24] <wxl> there was a no change rebuild in bionic+ that could have had some impact
[19:25] <wxl> there's no version of 2.1.4 before that in a supported release
[19:28] <wxl> and hold on
[19:28] <wxl> there's a fundamental misudnerstanding
[19:28] <wxl> that is NOT a modulo key
[19:28] <wxl> see the tooltip. it's for calculating a percent
[19:28] <wxl> there's no modulo function
[19:29] <wxl> well, not in the default mode
[19:29] <wxl> scientific mode has a MOD key
[19:29] <wxl> or wait, maybe I"M misunderstanding
[19:30] <wxl> so if i 5 ENT 2 +, 5 is added then removed from the stack, with the 7 remaining
[19:31] <wxl> if i 10 ENT 5 %, same behavior with the 10, except the 0.5 is remaining (this is Y technically)
[19:32] <wxl> if they want to put that into the stack (X), then x<>y will do it
[19:33] <wxl> i will waste no more time on this
[19:33] <wxl> especially given it's from 2017 sheesh
[19:33] <wxl> apt-ghetto is trolling me apparently XD
 What? It‘s surely the fault of tsimonq2
[19:34] <wxl> i'd love to blame him but this is all you XD
 nah it's wxl's fault today :P
[19:35] <wxl> pffht
[19:35]  * wxl genetically modifies @teward001 so he can no longer metabolize caffeine
[19:35] <teward> the problem
[19:35] <teward> is that causes an unstable molecular fission reaction
[19:35] <teward> ... which results in a very powerful blast wave that wipes out all technology world-wide
[19:36] <teward> :P

[21:09] <wxl> well the issue didn't even get a reply since 2017 so probably XD

[13:08] <hazmat> anyone know what happened to the api for logs
[13:24] <rick_h_> hazmat: it got back burnered and didn't end up landing yet
[13:25] <rick_h_> hazmat: I'm trying to recall what it got pulled to but can't recall off the top of my head
[13:28] <hazmat> rick_h_, yeah.. not seeing in the review queue or tree.. but i remember the discussions and thought it was imminent
[13:28] <rick_h_> hazmat: yea, we were tracking it to support debug-log in the gui, but it got handed off and then that person ended up getting pulled to a higher priority
[13:28] <rick_h_> hazmat: so it was still yellow close to red on the planning spreadsheet
[13:29] <hazmat> yeah.. looks like the latest was this mp https://code.launchpad.net/~rogpeppe/juju-core/themue-058-debug-log-api/+merge/202909
[13:30] <hazmat> but that implementation is broken with ha
[13:30] <rick_h_> yea, there was a lot of implementation discussions and a couple of stabs and it needed some more work is my understanding.
[13:54] <stokachu> is there a way to copy a non core juju plugin to the deployed system?
[13:54] <stokachu> to be made available to a charm
[15:13] <hazmat> stokachu, not sure if you got an answer.. but no re non-core plugin
[19:26] <stokachu> hazmat: ok thanks
[19:27] <hazmat> stokachu, the closet thing you can get is api access ala the gui, via config or login with credentials
[19:28] <stokachu> hazmat: ok i was trying to write a parser for charm development but couldnt think of a clean way to access the library
[19:28] <hazmat> stokachu, if its just a binary you can totally include it in a charm or pass it via juju scp
[19:29] <hazmat> stokachu, but that's a little different then modifying the env
[19:29] <stokachu> hazmat: so if i wrote it in go i could pass it through with scp
[19:29] <hazmat> stokachu, its a fairly trivial go program to validate charms..
[19:29] <stokachu> was trying to do a parser for a 1 file charm deployment
[19:29] <hazmat> stokachu, you mean like a bundle archive? or
[19:29] <stokachu> yea
[19:31] <hazmat> stokachu, but why do you want the validation in the service/unit?
[19:31] <stokachu> its more of a parser like install => [ names => ['nginx'] ]
[19:31] <stokachu> translate to apt-get install ..
[19:31] <hazmat> stokachu, deployer has a good amount of the logic for validation and checking.. i'd be game for seeing bundle archive support there... but i'm not sure we're talking about the same thing
[19:32] <hazmat> stokachu, if you want a dsl for charms, use charm-helpers..
[19:32] <hazmat> stokachu, we already have ansible, salt helpers there..
[19:32] <stokachu> but you still have to symlink all hooks to a hooks.py file
[19:33] <hazmat> stokachu, still not clear on the use case but bug  1009687 would cover that
[19:33] <_mup_> Bug #1009687: charms should be able to provide a 'missing-hook' script <pyjuju:Confirmed> <https://launchpad.net/bugs/1009687>
[19:34] <stokachu> hazmat: ah ok that helps
[19:34] <hazmat> just linked it to core as well
[19:34] <stokachu> just didnt like the fact i had to symlink files everywhere
[19:35] <hazmat> stokachu, so charm-helpers + missing-hook + 1 file  should be close to what your saying..
[19:35] <stokachu> would be easy if i could alter the cloud-init as well
[19:35] <stokachu> hazmat: yea exactly
[19:35] <stokachu> thinking more in line of like a Dockerfile or Vagrantfile
[19:36] <hazmat> stokachu, you need to use the api for provisioning if you want to mod cloud-init
[19:36] <hazmat> stokachu, i do it in some of my manual provider based plugins/tools
[19:36] <stokachu> hazmat: yea i was looking at your judo stuff
[19:36] <stokachu> hazmat: do you have it in there?
[19:36]  * hazmat tries to remember judo
[19:36] <hazmat> so long ago.. before gui and before azure.. before core.. there was ju-jitsu ..
[19:37] <stokachu> haha i remember that
[19:37] <hazmat> stokachu, no.. that stuff is way old and pyjuju based..
[19:37] <hazmat> stokachu, i'm on a plane atm.. (bandwidth bites).. but checkout add.py on github in my juju-lxc project
[19:38] <hazmat> re using the provisioning api
[19:38] <hazmat> you can get a script, shove it into cloudinit and tweak the rest as needed
[19:38] <hazmat> stokachu, what's the use case?
[19:39] <hazmat> for modifying cloudinit?
[19:39] <stokachu> hazmat: so basically i was attempting to create a Dockerfile syntax like for one file
[19:39] <stokachu> but required installing a few packages
[19:39] <stokachu> and i didnt want to install the packages in an install-hook and then re-eval after the fact
[19:39] <hazmat> stokachu,  dockerfiles have no orchestration.. there basically a simple makefile..
[19:39] <hazmat> with snapshots for each command
[19:39] <stokachu> yea this was for charms
[19:39] <stokachu> rather than writing pure shellscript
[19:40] <hazmat> stokachu, iotw.. how is this dsl going to do relations?
[19:40] <hazmat> stokachu, use ansible
[19:40] <stokachu> well i was attempting to do it in perl :)
[19:40] <stokachu> just to hack at it
[19:40]  * hazmat holds back the lol
[19:40] <hazmat> stokachu, what you want is already possible today using charm-helpers ansible support
[19:41] <hazmat> single file dsl, with relation support
[19:41] <stokachu> yea
[19:41] <stokachu> but you still have the symlinks until that bug gets fixed right?
[19:41] <hazmat> stokachu, yes
[19:41] <stokachu> ok thats not so bad then
[19:41] <hazmat> stokachu, have fun


[01:44] <OvenWerks> pep8 is horrible!! breaks things
[01:52] <Eickmeyer> oof
[02:52] <OvenWerks> Eickmeyer: main thing is pep8 wants all imports in the same place and before anything else... but I need to import something, change the import path (add another directory depending on where we are installed) then impirt more.
[02:52] <Eickmeyer> Importception?
[02:53] <OvenWerks> also gi.require_version('Gtk', '3.0') has to be before import.
[02:56] <OvenWerks> Eickmeyer: because studio-controls may be installed from a git clone, some sites may choose to install in /usr/local/
[02:56] <Eickmeyer> Yeah, that's fair.
[02:56] <OvenWerks> The standard path for python modules/libs/packages does not include local
[02:58] <OvenWerks> so I need to import enough to find out what path we are run from, create a path and isert it... then import my module
[03:00] <OvenWerks> pep8 does not complain about that but autopep8 changes it.
[03:01] <Eickmeyer> Well, that's good.
[03:02] <OvenWerks> Eickmeyer: however, as the idea behind these changes is to make things work with 3.10, and it works ok... I used autopep8 against things and will fix those few things at the top and go through the output of pep8 fixing the rest
[03:03] <OvenWerks>  Mostly lines too long and if not something in -> if something not in
[03:03] <Eickmeyer> There was a tool that converted some Python 2 to 3.. I wish something like that existed between 3.x versions.
[03:04] <OvenWerks> In theory anything that works in 3.0 shoulld work in 3.*
[03:04] <OvenWerks> breaking changes belong in 4.*
[03:04] <Eickmeyer> Yeah, the guy I work for (mmikowski) likes to get snarky about the guy who wrote Python.
[03:34] <OvenWerks> with good reason
[03:37] <OvenWerks> ok one file passes pep8, two more to go...
[05:09] <OvenWerks> If I ignore E402, Studio-controls passes too.
[05:10] <OvenWerks> E402 is the "module level import not at top of file" error
[16:37] <OvenWerks> Eickmeyer: everything is pep8-ed and seesm to run... but I need to test everything now.

It takes guite some time for the first time launch of KAFFEINE per session since it has to load all of the KDE-CORE libs. Is it possible to recompile the KDE-CORE libs and somehow compile them just for Kaffeine so they would start faster and put them into /opt/KDE? Afterwards I would just need to recompile kaffeine and choose the --prefix=/opt/

[09:00] <Riddell> tom_: not really, otherwise we'd do it already

[09:19] <Riddell> this is cool http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php/Kubuntu+Feisty+UserList++?content=56914
[09:28] <tom_> riddel- we have a problem over at KUBUNTU. Is prelinking even neccesary in latest feisy? Since Feisty has DT_GNU_HASH which dramatically speeds up the linking process without the need for continuously running this prelink program. This is written here>http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=74197
[09:38] <Riddell> tom_: so what's the problem?
[09:39] <tom_> well does Feisty benefit from installing the 'prelink' package or not? Since according to this thread
[09:39] <tom_> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=74197
[09:39] <tom_> it is already using prelinking by default.
[09:42] <Riddell> that forum post says not
[09:44] <tom_> so that forum post is correct? Since over at kubuntu they were persuading me that prelink still must be installed in feisty. and now I do not know what is the truth?
[09:45] <giangy> 'morning
[11:29] <asyd> a
[11:29] <asyd> oups, sorry
[12:21] <_StefanS_> hello there
[12:59] <Tm_T> imbrando1: good session you had last night, thanks sir
[01:03] <imbrando1> Tm_T, thanks
[01:28] <Riddell> imbrandon: you know about comiz?
[01:28] <Riddell> compiz
[01:30] <imbrandon> Riddell, a little bit, not alot, i've only been folloing it since UDS-MTV
[01:31] <imbrandon> following*
[01:31] <kwwii> I would like to know how to get it running in kde
[01:31] <imbrandon> but as of now ( unless someone else steps up ) i'm the packager for it and beryl
[01:32] <Riddell> imbrandon: do you know what the compiz-kde package does?
[01:32] <Riddell> it has a binary in it, but it doesn't seem to do anything
[01:33] <imbrandon> its obsolete now, it did make sane defaults for kde
[01:33] <Riddell> imbrandon: why is it obsolete?
[01:33] <imbrandon> kwwii, feisty just sudo apt-get install beryl and then run beryl-manager
[01:33] <Riddell> imbrandon: how come you're packager for compiz too?  wasn't seb128 doing it?
[01:34] <imbrandon> Riddell, they are merging , so me and seb both are doign it now, beryl and compiz will be one for gutsy
[01:34] <Riddell> right
[01:34] <imbrandon> and its obsolete because beryl-kubuntu will take its place soon ( with a new name )
[01:35] <imbrandon> basicly compiz-kde was davidr's kwin
[01:35] <imbrandon> but its not near complete etc
[01:35] <Riddell> imbrandon: any recommendations on how to answer http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17580/ ?
[01:35] <Riddell> it being from a journalist
[01:36] <imbrandon> plain compiz isnt really fully packaged for KDE in feisty, only beryl
[01:36] <kwwii> imbrandon: but I have compiz installed already
[01:36] <imbrandon> and with beryl you just run beryl-manager, OR plain compiz you can use the gnome themes and such
[01:36] <imbrandon> but its buggy
[01:37] <Riddell> I've installed beryl but have no beryl-manager, only 'beryl' and 'beryl-settings'
[01:38] <imbrandon> hrm one sec you definately should, there might be a dep problem
[01:38] <imbrandon> one sec
[01:38] <Riddell> actually I installed beryl-kubuntu
[01:39] <imbrandon> yea install beryl-manager too
[01:39] <imbrandon> beryl beryl-manager beryl-kubuntu and aquamarine
[01:39] <imbrandon> is the packages Kubuntu needs for a good beryl working nice
[01:39] <Riddell> "Support for non power of two textures missing" bummer, what does that mean?
[01:40] <imbrandon> video driver issue, i /think/ that can be fixed with a xorg.conf setting
[01:40] <imbrandon> but i would have to ask
[01:40] <imbrandon> ATI card?
[01:41] <Riddell> it is yes
[01:41] <imbrandon> k one sec
[01:43] <imbrandon> Riddell, ...
[01:43] <imbrandon> 06:41 < imbrandon> 06:39 < Riddell> "Support for non power of two textures missing" bummer, what does that mean?
[01:44] <imbrandon> 06:41 < imbrandon> ideas?
[01:44] <imbrandon> 06:42 < iXce> his GPU miss an extension
[01:44] <imbrandon> 06:42 < imbrandon> as it wont work at all with that card? WOW
[01:44] <imbrandon> 06:43 < iXce> yeah
[01:44] <imbrandon> 06:43 < iXce> what card is it?
[01:44] <imbrandon> 06:43 < imbrandon> ATI something, lemme check
[01:44] <imbrandon> :(
[01:44] <Riddell> 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. S3 Unichrome Pro VGA Adapter (rev 01)
[01:45] <imbrandon> Riddell, come to #beryl-dev with me if you want , kk one sec
[01:45] <imbrandon> ahh thats a S3 , not ATI
[01:45] <imbrandon> hrm
[01:45] <Riddell> true, true
[01:45] <Riddell> oh, it's my laptop that has an ATI
[01:45] <Riddell> this is my desktop
[01:46] <imbrandon> 06:43 < iXce> GL_ARB_texture_non_power_of_two < this is the required extension (glxinfo | grep power)
[01:46] <Riddell> glxinfo | grep power is blank
[01:46] <imbrandon> 06:46 < onestone> glxinfo | grep texture_rectangle
[01:46] <Riddell> also blank
[01:47] <Riddell> do you know what ubuntu uses to let users easily turn on compiz?
[01:48] <imbrandon> 06:47 < iXce> oh yeah
[01:48] <imbrandon> 06:47 < iXce> S3 => impossilbe
[01:48] <imbrandon> 06:47 < iXce> i've got a laptop with a S3 chip here, and it wouldn't work
[01:49] <kwwii> Riddell: desktop effects
[01:49] <kwwii> in the system menu
[01:49] <imbrandon> Riddell, no idea, that was one of my goals for gutsy
[01:49] <kwwii> it works great
[01:49] <imbrandon> is to bring it to us
[01:49] <Riddell> imbrandon: what does /usr/share/beryl-settings-simple/level2.Profile do in beryl-kubuntu?
[01:58] <_StefanS_> imbrandon: what kind of laptop has a S3 graphics adapter ?? a PDA or something :D
[01:59] <Riddell> _StefanS_: why wouldn't laptops have S3?
[02:01] <_StefanS_> Riddell: well just never heard of it :)
[02:09] <Riddell> imbrandon: e-mail sent to jounalist, CCed you
[02:10] <imbrandon> cool ok, and the level2.Profile is our sane-defaults, it eventualy needs to migrate to k-d-s
[02:11] <imbrandon> e.g. not "Full Bling"
[02:11] <Riddell> imbrandon: so for nice KDE integration we really just need a desktop-effects for KDE, then with beryl/compiz merger we want aquamarine in main and we have a compositing window manager without any gtk stuff being brought in?
[02:11] <Riddell> imbrandon: what's in level2.Profile that shouldn't be in the ubuntu defaults too?
[02:12] <imbrandon> yup and no there is one Level2.Profile for Kubuntu and one for Ubuntu as one uses Helidor and one uses Aqusamarine
[02:12] <imbrandon> s/s//
[02:13] <imbrandon> if it was done "right" it would be in k-d-s and u-d-s as an "alternative" but it wasent done that way
[02:13] <Riddell> right
[02:14] <Riddell> imbrandon: there is a berly kcontrol module in aquamarine, do you think the author of that would be interested in extending it to do what desktop-effects does?
[02:15] <imbrandon> he definately would, iirc iXce is the developer , if not i know who it is and can talk to him
[02:15] <Riddell> that seems the sensible place to do it
[02:16] <imbrandon> yea
[02:18] <Riddell> imbrandon: so you were volunteering to do that for gutsy?
[02:20] <imbrandon> Riddell, yup, that was a personal goal of mine anyhow
[02:21] <imbrandon> so i guess its psudo official now :)
[02:21] <Riddell> :)
[02:22] <Riddell> I should talk to quinn about it at UDS too I guess
[02:24] <imbrandon> :P
[02:25] <imbrandon> ok i'm heading to the houes, back in 45 min
[02:25] <imbrandon> house*
[03:12] <Hobbsee> Riddell: http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php/Kubuntu+Feisty+UserList++?content=56914 looks very cool, yes :)
[03:12] <Hobbsee> i'd like to see that in gutsy
[03:17] <_marseillais> +1
[03:28] <Hobbsee> 03:24 <@PriceChild> <stuart_> QUESTION: Kubuntu is a great distro but (IMHO) lacks polish and features compared to Ubuntu. Are there any
[03:28] <Hobbsee>                     plans to bring in more paid Kubuntu developers now or in the future?
[03:28] <Hobbsee> 03:25 <@sabdfl> stuart_: yes, the kubuntu team will expand, but i think kubuntu will always be more independent of canonical, which is in
[03:28] <Hobbsee>                 many was a good thing
[03:28] <Hobbsee> 03:26 <@sabdfl> somethings happen first in ubuntu, because that's where we focus our resources for new releases, other things happen first
[03:28] <Hobbsee>                 in kubuntu, because the decisions there are more bottom-up
[03:28] <Hobbsee> wonder what that's supposed to mean
[03:29] <crimsun> which part?
[03:29] <Hobbsee> all of it?
[03:29] <crimsun> it's definitely a good thing to grow paid kubuntu dev ranks
[03:30] <crimsun> it seems like the sabdfl's way of saying ubuntu remains canonical's distro focus
[03:30] <Hobbsee> yeah.  well, of course it is
[03:30] <Hobbsee> i'm more interested in the idea of growing the kubuntu side
[03:31] <crimsun> j.r might know more? I'm certainly not privy to that info.
[03:32] <Hobbsee> me neither
[03:32] <Riddell> know more what?
[03:32] <Hobbsee> heh,  instantly pinged.  hi Riddell :)
[03:33] <Hobbsee> Riddell: just the answer from -classroom yesterday
[03:33] <Riddell> yep, looks like an answer
[03:33] <Hobbsee> heh
[03:45] <Riddell> certainly was
[03:46] <Riddell> actually when was that?
[03:46] <Hobbsee> ask mark session yesterday
[03:46] <Hobbsee> in #ubuntu-classroom
[03:46] <Riddell> oh yes, I see it now
[03:46] <Hobbsee> 1700utc
[03:49] <Hobbsee> the sessions look interesting
[03:50] <Hobbsee> yay, gutsy is almost open for general upload
[03:52] <Hobbsee> oh neat.  tagging of kde 3.5.7 on april 30.
[03:53] <Riddell> mm, merge and new versions at the same time, painful
[03:53] <crimsun> hmm. "The archive will be open for normal operation
[03:53] <crimsun> around Thursday noon UTC (Mar 26)."
[03:53] <crimsun> please tell me that's a typo
[03:53] <Riddell> and KDE 4 alpha at the same time
[03:54] <Hobbsee> crimsun: heh
[03:54] <Riddell> and leaving for spain that weekend
[03:54] <Riddell> wah
[03:54] <Hobbsee> ooh yeah, even better
[03:54] <Hobbsee> heh
[03:54] <Hobbsee> and how many freaking assignments do i have to get, all due on the 2nd, or fourth of may???
[03:55] <Hobbsee> Riddell: us mere mortals could attempt to help you, if you wanted
[03:55] <Hobbsee> leave kde4 for a while, presumably
[03:57] <Riddell> that would be good, although trick is doing it without duplication or blocking
[03:58] <Hobbsee> Riddell: do it X-style?
[03:58] <Hobbsee> crimsun: can tell you how that was done, if you didnt see it
[03:58] <Riddell> Hobbsee: how's that?
[03:58] <Hobbsee> (seeing as he was involved with it, so probably knows more than i do)
[03:59] <Hobbsee> separate channel, LOCK packageX, UNLOCK it when done, a list of what order to do things
[03:59] <Hobbsee> and a very big whack with the cluebat if someone went out of order, i suspect
[04:00] <imbrandon> the community buildd's can be used for that too if wanted
[04:00] <imbrandon> so you can keep long builds running
[04:00] <Hobbsee> depends how fast they are.  there's also yours
[04:03] <bddebian> Heya

[05:04] <Hobbsee> Riddell: you did once :D
[05:04] <Hobbsee> came onto irc
[05:07] <manchicken> Okay, it looks like ALT-click to move windows has been killed...
[05:08] <manchicken> That's no fun.
[05:08] <manchicken> Anybody know how to put that back on?
[05:09] <Riddell> manchicken: works for me
[05:09] <manchicken> Riddell: It could have just gotten hosed on my machine.  do you know how to set that up again?
[05:09] <manchicken> (though I'm not sure what would have killed it)
[05:09] <Riddell> no idea, it should always happen if you run kwin
[05:10] <manchicken> Hmm...
[05:10] <manchicken> Hmm... I found the settings.
[05:10] <nixternal> manchicken: ctrl+alt+del to get out of MS Windows first ;p

[05:11] <jjesse> bye have fun
[05:12] <nixternal> no fun today ;(
[05:12] <jjesse> bummer then
[05:14] <manchicken> It's scary how many KDE features I'm just unable to function without.
[05:14] <manchicken> Damnit, it's still not working.
[05:15] <manchicken> Hmm... there it goes.
[05:15] <manchicken> That's funny.  I didn't change anything.
[05:16] <manchicken> I'm going to blame it on HP.

[05:20] <Hobbsee> hi Jucato
[05:20] <Hobbsee> is it guidance?
[05:22] <Jucato> unless it's something caused by systemsettings itself...
[05:22] <Jucato> you can probably test by launching displayconfig by itself
[05:24] <alleeHol> Anyone knows where are the Kubuntu blueprint/specs for UDS.  Lauchpad lists only one spec yet
[05:25] <asyd> anyone know how works kcheckpass ? I have strange problem with it.
[05:26] <Riddell> alleeHol: they're not in launchpad
[05:26] <alleeHol> Riddell: wiki?
[05:26] <Riddell> alleeHol: only a top secret one
[05:27] <Hobbsee> canonical wiki, presumably
[05:27] <Riddell> yes
[05:29] <Riddell> alleeHol: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17624/
[05:31] <alleeHol> Riddell: thx for the list.
[05:41] <mhb> hmm
[05:41] <Riddell> hmm?
[05:42] <mhb> makes me wonder
[05:42] <Riddell> what does?
[05:42] <mhb> the fact that Kubuntu blueprints/specs are hidden from the public
[05:42] <mhb> for the UDS, that is
[05:43] <mhb> is an open development really out of fashion?
[05:43] <Riddell> well they're not, I just put them in that pastebin :)
[05:44] <Riddell> but as for why the sessions for UDS specs are being done in secret for now, I'm not honestly sure
[05:45] <Riddell> canonoical management seems to think that's the best way for this cycle
[05:45] <manchicken> Eh?
[05:45] <Riddell> but specs can be registered on launchpad and there's plenty sessions open for them to be scheduled
[05:46] <Hobbsee> mhb: i was wondering that too.
[05:46] <manchicken> Are we crossing the line from sponsorship and leadership to control?
[05:46] <Riddell> and obviously the specs themselves will be on the wiki
[05:46] <Hobbsee> Riddell: that doesnt help us mere mortals look at the specs, and ponder them before UDS, does it?
[05:46] <manchicken> Or am I missing something?
[05:46] <Hobbsee> well, links to them, in an easy fashion, rather than searching the entire wiki
[05:46] <abattoir> Riddell: anyone working on Kubuntu Accessibility Keyboard? if i may ask?
[05:47] <DaSkreech> Can any Burner in linux span Audio CDs?
[05:47] <Riddell> Hobbsee: there's nothing to look at just now except what I put in that pastebin
[05:47] <Riddell> abattoir: tonio has an interest
[05:47] <abattoir> Riddell: oh, ok, cool :)
[05:47] <Riddell> abattoir: the question is if it should be a port of onboard to qt or using klavier
[05:47] <Riddell> abattoir: I don't know if he plans to work on it, I just said he had an interest
[05:47] <mhb> I really believe you people who are able to ponder on them and will attend will make good decisions ... it's just that I liked to watch the process, now I feel a bit "restricted"
[05:48] <Hobbsee> Riddell: i know that you're not the one making that decision - but it's hard to know that that's the truth, knowing that there's a whole lot of stuff that's canonical only, which really doesnt seem to have such a reason not to be open
[05:49] <Riddell> I don't like that the UDS sessions are being done in secret (for now, obviously that will change before the conference)
[05:49] <Riddell> there is an ask sabdfl slot on the open week in a few hours though
[05:49] <abattoir> :)
[05:49] <mhb> really?
[05:50] <Hobbsee> Riddell: haha.  well, if we can get someone else to ask, that'd be great
[05:50] <mhb> :o)
[05:50] <abattoir> mhb: 1800 UTC
[05:50] <Riddell> https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UbuntuOpenWeek 2 hours
[05:50] <abattoir> mhb: part of open week
[05:50] <Hobbsee> i'd hope to be asleep by then...
[05:50] <manchicken> Riddell: What do you mean the UDS sessions are done in secret?  Are you just talking about the planning of it?
[05:51] <Riddell> manchicken: that the list of sessions is on a secret canonical wiki and not public
[05:51] <manchicken> Ah.
[05:51] <Riddell> as I say anyone is able to also register on launchpad and they will be schedules in by the automatic timetabler
[05:51] <Riddell> (if they are accepted as normal)
[05:53] <manchicken> That doesn't sound like it makes much sense...
[05:53] <manchicken> But either way.
[05:54] <manchicken> Riddell: People making those decisions do understand that some of the developers are super-cynical "share the information" type folks, don't they?
[05:55] <Riddell> manchicken: yes, of course
[05:56] <manchicken> Riddell: Good.  Just checking :)
[06:03] <Riddell> Hobbsee: should we have a kubuntu meeting before UDS?
[06:03] <Hobbsee> Riddell: might be a plan - but when?
[06:03] <Riddell> (open question, I don't know if it would be useful or not)
[06:03] <Riddell> that is always the sticking point
[06:03] <Hobbsee> i think it'd be a good idea
[06:03] <Hobbsee> but i leave in what...a week...
[06:03] <Hobbsee> hrm
[06:04] <Hobbsee> wednesday night work for you?
[06:04] <Hobbsee> i dont have uni that day - as i'm flying then
[06:04] <Hobbsee> it'll give me something to contemplate
[06:05] <Hobbsee> but i think a meeting would a be a great idea - get that speclist out of the private land, and then get people to explore what they want to see in gutsy, and what they're willing to do.  or what their thoughts are
[06:05] <mhb> I agree with Hobbsee
[06:06] <Hobbsee> Riddell: of course, the sooner that you shoot down the suspicion that the canonical employees have control, and access to info, which mere mortals dont have, the better.
[06:06] <Hobbsee> w.r.t spec writing, and such
[06:06] <DaSkreech> It's closed to only Canonical Employees?
[06:07] <DaSkreech> or project members?
[06:07] <Hobbsee> (if that's the case)
[06:08] <Hobbsee> Riddell: it's not that us mere mortals really want to interfere - we more want to watch, and see hwo the process works, before we do anything with it
[06:08] <DaSkreech> And throw gears in the circle!
[06:09] <Hobbsee> (and it decreases the barrier between the employees versus the mere mortals)
[06:10] <Hobbsee> Riddell: to be honest, i dont feel terribly "in step" with what kubuntu's doing at the moment, so i'm not really the one to ask
[06:13] <mhb> so, is anybody going to ask sabdfl about this new policy?
[06:14] <abattoir> mhb: i could ask if i'm awake, but to be honest i don't see it as that big an issue
[06:14] <Hobbsee> what'd i miss?
[06:15] <abattoir> haha, was expecting curses :)
[06:15] <abattoir> nothing much
[06:15] <mhb> Hobbsee: you missed yourself being disconnected, that's all
[06:15] <Hobbsee> oh right
[06:16] <Hobbsee> or my own fingers.  they're the real culprit
[06:17] <yuriy> mhb: what new policy?
[06:17] <kwwii> mhb: I am not sure if I would consider this policy new
[06:21] <mhb> kwwii: weren't the specs completely open last UDS?
[06:22] <mhb> kwwii: at least for Kubuntu
[06:22] <kwwii> mhb: sorry, I misunderstood which policy you were talking about
[06:22] <mhb> kwwii: the one we talked about few minutes ago, the fact that UDS specs are being pondered in a canonical-only wiki
[06:22] <mhb> yuriy: ^^
[06:23] <abattoir> mhb: isn't that only temporary? aren't they going to be moved to LP/Ubuntu wiki before the conference anyways? or am i missing something?
[06:24] <kwwii> the thing is, there are specs on LP already (I guess not for kubuntu though)
[06:24] <kwwii> did anyone say explicitly that no specs should be put on LP by community members?
[06:25] <mhb> kwwii: no
[06:25] <abattoir> mhb: also are those specs those registered by canonical employees? the rest of us can still register specs for discussion in LP right?
[06:25] <Riddell> it's explicitly said that they should
[06:25] <kwwii> so...it seems that it is more a matter of lazy community members (just a joke)
[06:25] <Hobbsee> Riddell: to which?
[06:25] <Riddell> kwwii: not really any yet https://beta.launchpad.net/sprints/uds-sevilla/+specs
[06:26] <Riddell> Hobbsee: people should register specs for sevilla on launchpad if they want to run a session
[06:26] <Riddell> abattoir: yes it's temporary
[06:26] <Hobbsee> Riddell: that's probably due to the fact that everyone's been wondering where they are, but because none of teh others have been filed, they think it's in some mystery location which they cant get to.  which appears to be correct...?
[06:26] <Riddell> Hobbsee: could well be
[06:26] <Hobbsee> ie, they assume that the procedure has changed, and that they havent been notified, so are waiting
[06:27] <Hobbsee> that's what i've found, with numerous people asking around.
[06:27] <yuriy> Riddell: is all the stuff you listed for discussion at UDS going to be drafted into specs when you all get there?
[06:28] <Riddell> yuriy: no, the meduxa ones are just discussions, there's three adept ones which might only need one spec I'm not sure
[06:28] <Riddell> but otherwise yes
[06:28] <Hobbsee> these specs would already have various stuff on them, presumably?  which are on the ubuntu wiki?
[06:29] <Riddell> Hobbsee: which?
[06:29] <Hobbsee> the kde ones that will be discussed
[06:29] <yuriy> i guess my question was the same as Hobbsee and so that's a no?
[06:31] <Riddell> I'm not sure I follow
[06:31] <Riddell> the specs themselves will be written on the wiki at UDS
[06:32] <Hobbsee> Riddell: you say "write specs on teh wiki" - but hwo many of htose are already doen, but are on the internal wiki.  ie, will we be duplicating work?
[06:32] <Hobbsee> bah.  i must be getting tired, if my spelling's that bad
[06:33] <DaSkreech> Gnight Hobbsee
[06:33] <Hobbsee> cant go to bed yet - got an assignment due tomorrow
[06:34] <Hobbsee> and work.  somehow i'm on the supervising list again :P
[06:34] <Riddell> Hobbsee: no, nothing has been written yet, it's just a list of session titles that's on the secret wiki (I pastebin'd the kubuntu ones earlier)
[06:34] <Hobbsee> clearly i didnt scare off all my staff by saying "you cant go home until you finish serving all the people, and the store closes".  :P
[06:34] <Hobbsee> Riddell: right.
[06:35] <Hobbsee> so you're planning to file them on that spec page, or they're filed and hidden, or what?
[06:35] <Riddell> mhb: I'm happy to ask sabdfl at the openweek session later if you are uncomfortable doing so
[06:35] <Riddell> Hobbsee: I expect they'll get put into launchpad yes
[06:35] <mhb> Riddell: I don't trust my english today
[06:35] <mhb> Riddell: so it would be nice of you
[06:36] <Riddell> sure
[06:37] <Hobbsee> Riddell: thanks
[06:37] <DaSkreech> Riddell: Slightly off topic. What kind of access would canonical give for the hardwaer database?
[06:38] <DaSkreech> hardware
[06:39] <Riddell> DaSkreech: none as far as I know, the risk of exposing people's personal danger is too high
[06:39] <Riddell> I could be wrong on that though
[06:39] <Riddell> I'm also happy to run queries on the data if you know what you want
[06:39] <marseillai> how can i "open" a rpm to see how it is done to make a debian package ?
[06:39] <Riddell> marseillai: I use alien on the source rpm
[06:39] <Riddell> but there's probably a better way
[06:40] <marseillai> i'll try Riddell
[06:40] <marseillai> i was trying to open it with ark
[06:41] <DaSkreech> Riddell: I was interested in it for Knoware
[06:41] <Riddell> DaSkreech: what's that?
[06:42] <DaSkreech> Riddell: http://developer.kde.org/summerofcode/knoware.html
[06:42] <marseillai> sudo alien --to-tgz manslide-1.5-alt1.1.src.rpm thanks riddell
[06:42] <mhb> one more offtopic question - what is the policy for the on-line conference talks during UDS? I mean - people like me will be allowed to join the room (probably), but is it okay to talk? Or does it disturb the people really there?
[06:43] <mhb> join through voip
[06:43] <Hobbsee> mhb: depends how good the connectoin is, and how it works.  "we'll see" is usually the answer
[06:43] <mhb> okay
[06:44] <mhb> it's not that I want to disturb much :o) just the kde4-guidance discussion affects me a bit, so I'd like to join
[06:44] <Hobbsee> mhb: listening is no problem, assuming it works
[06:44] <Hobbsee> mhb: sometimes we takl - depends what it is
[06:45] <Riddell> talking if fine in theory, in practice it depends if the speaker and room is any good
[06:45] <Hobbsee> but most of the time it's just a black hole of nothingness, for the non-attendees, if the room isnt good.
[06:45] <Riddell> you can also poke us on irc
[06:45] <Hobbsee> that's what i found, anyway
[06:46] <yuriy> so we can listen live and then poke on IRC?
[06:46] <Hobbsee> yes, lovely windows will bring a *great* sense of environment to your room.  as will the glass ceiling.  but it's not good for accoustic!
[06:46] <allee> yuriy: yes.  That what I did
[06:46] <Hobbsee> yuriy: assuming the wifi works in the hotel :P
[06:47] <Hobbsee> allee: did you get spads to help you?
[06:47] <allee> Hobbsee: spads?
[06:48] <Hobbsee> allee: canonical sysadmin guy, decent with all this stuff
[06:48] <Hobbsee> they were doing registrations / testing for the VOIP last time
[06:48] <Hobbsee> and announcing it thru the dev channels
[06:48] <allee> Hobbsee: responsible admins tried to help.  But the hardware was to lousy.  It's not the echo of the room.
[06:48] <Hobbsee> ah right, fair enough
[06:49] <Hobbsee> allee: we should have traded.  that way, i had a legit excuse not to speak, and you could have :P
[06:49] <allee> Hobbsee: only solution would have been that everyone would use headphones.  I did but not the guys at google
[06:49] <allee> :)
[06:49] <Hobbsee> true that
[06:50] <allee> Hobbsee: no.  you have to speak.  Let's see how you kick people without a long stick :)
[06:50] <allee> s/see/hear/
[06:50] <Hobbsee> allee: awww.  but i'm immediately obvious, when i'm using the VOIP
[06:50] <Hobbsee> in person it doesnt seem to be such a shock
[06:52] <besonen_mobile> any ghost users here?  i just restored a kubuntu ghost image (on a dual-boot winxp laptop) only to have grub fail on reboot with an "error 15" message.  i could use some guidance in remedying this situation.
[06:52] <besonen_mobile> i have asked for help in #kubuntu but no ghost users spoke up.  i'm asking here because i'm hoping that someone may be able to give me very a very pointed suggestion (since i only have about 10 minutes to fix the problem or bail on it for two days - something i'd rather not do).
[06:52] <besonen_mobile> fwiw, i read thru the documentation at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows and followed the recovery procedure.  unfortunately my situation doesn't map to the outlined steps.  per step 4 on the above web page in the first section (Using the Desktop/LiveCD while preserving Windows Bootloader), when i type "find /boot/grub/stage1" the message returned is "Error 15: File not found" rather t
[06:52] <besonen_mobile> han something like "(hd0)" that the recovery instructions stated would be returned.
[06:52] <besonen_mobile> again, any help would be greatly appreaciated.  i'm hopping into the shower right now.  when i get out i'll read any replies.  peace, david
[06:52] <Hobbsee> allee: heh
[06:53] <Hobbsee> eep, large, unrelated paste in the middle of a conversation...
[06:54] <Hobbsee> besonen_mobile: have you looked up the documentation on error 15: file not found, particularly on the gentoo sites?  they're known to be very comprehensive for grub errors
[07:02] <Hobbsee> jjesse: that menu editing bug seems to be a PEBKAC error - well, a config file.  i'm not sure what
[07:02] <Hobbsee> 's creating the bad config, though
[07:02] <Hobbsee> but on a clean config, it *should* be working
[07:02] <Hobbsee> which is why it's set to needsinfo
[07:03] <Hobbsee> (or was)
[07:08] <jjesse> Hobbsee: should i set it back to needs info?
[07:08] <Hobbsee> jjesse: *shrug*
[07:09] <Hobbsee> jjesse: nah, leave it as is, probably
[07:09] <Hobbsee> ie "what more info do you want?"  "I dont know, i dont know where the problem is"
[07:19] <DaSkreech> Heehee
[07:27] <allee> besonen_mobile: fwiw I've shutdown my edgy box, booted with feisty desktop CDROM  and find /boot/grub/stage1 immeidately returned (hd0,2)  <- my root partition.  So for me it works
[07:28] <besonen_mobile> allee:  when i look in /boot there is no grub directory.  it would seem that symantect ghost failed to back this directory up (even though i imaged the /boot partition).
[07:31] <jjesse> another bug triag question:  bug 108725
[07:31] <ubotu> Malone bug 108725 in Ubuntu "Kubuntu password stars" [Undecided,Unconfirmed]  https://launchpad.net/bugs/108725
[07:32] <jjesse> is a question about the size of the stars when replacing passwords, this was changed due to usability request correct?
[07:33] <Riddell> jjesse: no
[07:34] <Riddell> it's because qt's font handling randomly lost the ability to render the larger black circle
[07:36] <jjesse> so is it an open bug or something else?
[07:38] <Riddell> jjesse: it's open
[07:38] <Riddell> allee: with what OS?
[07:38] <allee> Feisty of course
[07:39] <allee> building pkgs is fun now (at least for a while)
[07:43] <fdoving> kvm is cool.
[07:47] <DaSkreech> fdoving: Which?
[07:47] <fdoving> the 'kvm' in feisty.
[07:47] <DaSkreech> ok
[07:47] <fdoving> Description: Full virtualization on x86 hardware
[07:48] <DaSkreech> on Virtualized x86 hardware
[07:48] <fdoving> yeah.
[07:48] <fdoving> that's the cool part :)
[07:52] <mhb> jjesse: the bug with font rendering is actually in one of the Debian's patches
[07:52] <DaSkreech> fdoving: Seen 2.6.21
[07:52] <DaSkreech> VMware put in code for VMI
[07:52] <jjesse> mhb ok, so should i link the two somehow?
[07:53] <fdoving> DaSkreech: oh. nice. haven't tried vmware yet.
[07:53] <fdoving> (.. for some years, that is.)
[07:54] <mhb> jjesse: I am not sure where the first bug is
[07:54] <mhb> jjesse: I can't find it
[07:54] <mhb> jjesse: but it's practically the same thing as in the bugreport you posted now
[07:54] <jjesse> mhb: ok i will try and track it down
[08:15] <DaSkreech> Woah
[08:15] <DaSkreech> Feisty is really messing with me :-(
[08:26] <fdoving> DaSkreech: messing with what?
[08:26] <DaSkreech> I don't know
[08:27] <DaSkreech> It went nnuts
[08:27] <DaSkreech> it's remapping my shortcut keys for apps
[08:27] <DaSkreech> It's crashing apps left and right
[08:27] <DaSkreech>  I've had kate crash twice konqueror crash four times
[08:27] <DaSkreech> kdeinit crash
[08:28] <fdoving> ouch.
[08:28] <fdoving> i've had no problems.
[08:28] <DaSkreech> it just went nuts
[08:28] <fdoving> been running it for ages.
[08:28] <DaSkreech>  well this is the first time that I've booted into the .20 kernel
[08:28] <DaSkreech> I've been using the 17 kernel before this
[08:46] <mhb> Riddell: thanks for asking
[08:47] <Riddell> mhb: I'm not sure what he's looking at on launchpad for the proposed list
[08:47] <giangy> 'evening
[08:48] <mhb> Riddell: me neither
[08:49] <mhb> but there's not much we can do with it now - maybe the next cycle will be "open" again
[09:03] <DaSkreech> Anyone asked mark abotu the UDS?
[09:05] <mhb> DaSkreech: yes
[09:05] <mhb> DaSkreech: Jonathan has
[09:05] <DaSkreech> What was the ersponse?
[09:05] <DaSkreech> response?
[09:05] <DaSkreech> I just got back from lunch
[09:08] <mhb> he said he sees the list of proposed features on Launchpad (which was strange as we don't) and then mentioned that UDS will be open/transparent for all
[09:09] <DaSkreech> ok did he give a time for that?
[09:11] <mhb> DaSkreech: no, but IMHO it should be open as the UDS starts, that is 2007-05-06
[09:11] <DaSkreech> Ok
[09:14] <nixternal> quit blaming me ;p
[09:14] <marseillai> fdoving: i've succed to do my manslide package! :D
[09:15] <marseillai> but now i need to include some icon in my package wich are not in the source. Someonte told me it's bad to put .png in /debian/ but i don't know how to do else
[09:28] <fdoving> marseillai: yes, it's advisable to uuencode it. then use uudecode to decode it in debian/rules
[09:29] <marseillai> fdoving: done
[09:29] <marseillai> normalement
[09:29] <fdoving> marseillai: #ubuntu-motu should be experts at this.
[09:29] <marseillai> fdoving: i've change them in .xpm
[09:29] <marseillai> arf
[09:29] <marseillai> and i've make a mistake
[09:29] <marseillai> i've not change my .desktop to change .png in .xppm
[09:29] <marseillai> xpm
[09:30] <nixternal> Riddell: I see your notes about WinFOSS. I have actually stripped the CD and created a custom one for my LUG. Putting a simple guide on there will be a breeze
[09:33] <DaSkreech> nixternal: :)
[09:33] <nixternal> quit smiling at me ;)
[09:33] <nixternal> I am sure it is my fault
[09:33] <DaSkreech> You caused it
[09:34] <nixternal> can you believe that some very large company makes you do a psych test and physical before the 2nd interview?
[09:34] <nixternal> I was in with a goofy dr. this morning with the most obsurred questions I have ever been asked
[09:35] <nixternal> though he didn't think it was funny, he asked about fantasizing and what I fantasize about. My answer was the Chicago Cubs winning the world series
[09:35] <nixternal> when he said seriously, I almost said Linux ruling the world?
[09:40] <DaSkreech> Armies!!!
[09:40] <DaSkreech> Armies of Penguins !!
[09:40] <nixternal> hehe
[09:41] <DaSkreech> Sharing with each other the secrets of efficiency and friendliness while they crush walruses with the sheer number of them gathering
[09:41] <DaSkreech> Tearing down all walls and fences where they go!!!
[09:41] <DaSkreech> I'm sorry what was the question?
[09:42] <DaSkreech> What do you mean you'll call me?
[09:44] <nixternal> Breaking through windows and tearing down gates
[09:44] <Riddell> yay, _Sime is coming to akademy
[09:45] <_Sime> jep, it is organised. just have to find money for the acco.
[09:46] <Riddell> you can ask e.v. if it's a problem
[09:46] <Riddell> but we need to know by monday
[09:52] <_Sime> Riddell: can you use credit cards on paypal?
 QUESTION: Kubuntu is a great distro but (IMHO) lacks polish and features compared to Ubuntu. Are there any plans to bring in more paid Kubuntu developers now or in the future?
[09:53] <giangy>     *
[09:53] <giangy> mh, this sux.
[09:53] <giangy>       yes, the kubuntu team will expand, but i think kubuntu will always be more independent of canonical, which is in many was a good thing. somethings happen first in ubuntu, because that's where we focus our resources for new releases, other things happen first in kubuntu, because the decisions there are more bottom-up
[09:53] <Riddell> _Sime: yes
[09:53] <Tm_T> giangy: yes?
[09:53] <Tm_T> giangy: we are all days bottoms up, if that's what you're asking
[09:54] <giangy> Tm_T: kubuntu needs more grateful for the work done.
[09:55] <Dekans> c'est bien lsb_release pour avoir le nom de la version d'ubuntu ?
[09:55] <giangy> (in my opinion)
[09:55] <Dekans> oups sorry wrong chan :/
[09:56] <DaSkreech> giangy: I think we get lots of love
[09:56] <DaSkreech> just from the bottom up :)
[09:56] <giangy> heh
[09:58] <Tm_T> (--:
[09:58] <mhb> Riddell: by the way, will there be any "polish and features compared to Ubuntu" discussion in UDS?
[09:59] <mhb> Riddell: see the giangy's message above
[09:59] <giangy> (I paste it from the Q&A session)
[10:01] <mhb> giangy: I understand that. Truth is that I keep hearing about the "not-so-polished" Kubuntu from more and more sides
[10:02] <giangy> mhb: me too
[10:07] <DaSkreech> kate crashes again :(
[10:07] <mhb> giangy: feedback from users is important. However, it is hard for the real developers ( i.e. not me :o) to decide what the users desire and what is noise
[10:09] <giangy> mhb: without doubts, but I don't like that Kubuntu is considered less important or "it lacks polish and features" than Gnome (Ubuntu)
[10:10] <giangy> it's subjective, imho
[10:10] <giangy> only this, mhb :-/
[10:11] <marseillai> fdoving: if i put on my ftp my manslide package can you check it and tell me what you think about it? there's only one problem i've seen! i've remove a version dependency on imagemagick to be able to install it on feisty
[10:12] <mhb> giangy: the other problem is that "lacking polish" is really abstract. The devs (and people using Kubuntu for a long time) are used to the interface, so they need to be told what exactly is incorrect
[10:13] <DaSkreech> mhb: I like the polish of Kubuntu so far
[10:13] <DaSkreech> in terms of style
[10:13] <ScottK> Personally, I like Kubuntu as it is.  (I'm not a dev)
[10:14] <giangy> mhb: exactly, it's *really* abstract.
[10:14] <giangy> ScottK: me too (and I'm only a Kubuntu user)
[10:15] <ScottK> In many cases Ubuntu gets a new feature, there are lots of bugs and pain and then Kubuntu gets it next release and it's much less painful.  This is not so bad.
[10:16] <DaSkreech> ScottK: That's not polish. In that kase Kubuntu would be more polished
[10:18] <mhb> it's hard to say what "polish" really is - except for stuff that comes from Poland
[10:19] <DaSkreech> Or kiwi
[10:19] <mhb> when it comes to "UI polish", I believe Kubuntu needs some more love
[10:21] <mhb> less clutter, more transitions between elements (logging out is a pain)
[10:24] <mhb> I really think there should be a discussion about which parts of the OS could and should be "polished" for Gutsy
[10:26] <DaSkreech> I wouldn't mind having two cds .. a wild man one and the officail
[10:32] <DaSkreech> kicker just crashed
[10:33] <ScottK> The real issue I think is that KDE 3 is essentially in bugfix mode while we wait for KDE 4.  Given that, lack of lots of new wizbang is pretty much a given.  You want wildman, go install KDE 4...
[10:34] <DaSkreech> ScottK: Well.. yeah that's why we would have a wildman
[10:35] <DaSkreech>  have a KDE4/KDE3 crazy things CD
[10:35] <DaSkreech> make sure it's kinda seen as a dev CD
[10:35] <DaSkreech> Even when KDE4 ships and becomes Kubuntu default we can try things like Compositing or apps that didn't quite make the deadline on it
[10:37] <\sh> problem of Kubuntu is still, less paid devs for UI and too many wishlists from Community.
[10:37] <\sh> it's not a kde 3/4 problem..it's a problem of resources
[10:38] <DaSkreech> Well yeah but we only really deal with KDE stuff
[10:38] <\sh> and yeah, I do believe, Mark should stay to his promise for more paid KDE devs, but I don't see it happen in the future very soon.
[10:39] <DaSkreech> A lot of the other things we inherit
[10:39] <fdoving> it's not like a payed developer or two could re-design kde from the ground up in a few months anyway.
[10:40] <fdoving> let's wait for/hack kde4 :)
[10:40] <DaSkreech> :-)
[10:40] <\sh> fdoving, kde4 will be usable in 2 years time, just like kde3 in the beginning
[10:40] <fdoving> \sh: so in the meantime let's redesign kde3? :)
[10:40] <\sh> fdoving, and it has to do with "more resources into KDE coding for kubuntu"
[10:41] <\sh> fdoving, I want a LTS release with a really nice working KDE desktop, with a working IMAP solution for Kmail e.g.
[10:41] <fdoving> more resources to KDE.
[10:41] <\sh> and not a crashing desktop every 5 minutes, which I can't fix, because IMAP is broken in kmail
[10:42] <DaSkreech> What do they call not finished/polished ?
[10:42] <\sh> taking the imap stack from sylpheed-claws-gtk2 and morphing it into kmail that's a task
[10:42] <fdoving> don't think that will ever happen.
[10:43] <\sh> fdoving, why not? what is the reason for it?
[10:44] <\sh> KDE takes patches from saphari for konqui ... regarding html, why not reuse code from other projects, which is visible better then KDEs own implementation?
[10:45] <\sh> but, I agree, it's a general problem of KDE and other projects, not concentrating on actual problems, but thinking and implementing new hotstuff ;)
[10:45] <DaSkreech> GHNS ?
[10:46] <\sh> GHNS? meaning?
[10:48] <Riddell> mhb: we have an open KDE sessions scheduled for stuff like that, but such sessions can be hard because items are hard to pin down
[10:49] <DaSkreech> Get Hot New Stuff
[10:49] <Tm_T> DaSkreech: you got me
[10:49] <\sh> DaSkreech, for people using a desktop in a real working env, really hot new stuff is not interessting, but working hot stuff is a good deal,
[10:50] <DaSkreech> Tm_T: I did ?
[10:51] <Tm_T> DaSkreech: hey, you asked Hot New Stuff, and I'm on fire!1
[10:51] <\sh> Tm_T, lol
[10:51] <Tm_T> ok, I should get some sleep =)
[10:52] <Tm_T> had long day promoting Linux and F/OSS in overall
[10:52] <Tm_T> more tomorrow :)
[10:53] <\sh> just because there are 12k desktops waiting for a working desktop...and germany is kde, not gnome ;)
[10:53] <DaSkreech> Isn't that mailody?
[10:53] <DaSkreech> or  have I not been paying attention?
[10:54] <\sh> DaSkreech, can it deal with 4G mailspools...and not crashing all the time when someone tries to delete more than 100 mails from imap?
[10:55] <DaSkreech> Ok this is silly everything is crashing one after another
[10:55] <\sh> that's my problem right now, that's why I'm using sylpheed-claws, because it's not crashing
[10:55] <Dekans> hello, does anyone handle kcontrol-autostart ?
[10:56] <giangy> \sh: i'm using thunderbird too because kmail can't deal with 5G mailspools
[10:57] <\sh> giangy, yeah on windows I'm using thunderbird, too, but the usabilty of TB is a mess....
[10:57] <Tm_T> hmm
[10:57] <giangy> \sh: yep, TB usability isn't good
[10:58] <\sh> kmail is much better in this, but crashing..and I don't know where to fix it in the code...a mess :(
[10:58] <Dekans> kcontrol-autostart is completely useless sinc dapper
[10:58] <Dekans> since*
[10:58] <giangy> \sh: who is the KDE-PIM guy behind Kmail?
[10:59] <giangy> TIll Adam?
[10:59] <giangy> (I'm reading http://dot.kde.org/1116452031/ )
[10:59] <yuriy> kmail is angering me lately. because "reply" puts the mailing list in the "to" and not the sender
[11:00] <\sh> giangy, don sanders?
[11:00] <Tm_T> yuriy: well that's conigurable IIRC
[11:01] <yuriy> Tm_T: is that so? i'll have a look. though too late now :(
[11:01] <giangy> \sh: can't we speak with don? :-)
[11:01] <giangy> (but I think that he know the IMAP problems..)
[11:01] <Tm_T> giangy: #kontact ? (:
[11:01] <yuriy> imap problems?
[11:01] <\sh> giangy, the problems are well known, and there are several bug reports about it
[11:01] <DaSkreech> And everything crashes :(
[11:02] <Tm_T> doesn't crash here
[11:02] <Tm_T> winterz fixed my "last" crash issue <3
[11:02] <DaSkreech> I didn't have any crash issues outside of Kopete
[11:02] <\sh> giangy, as I said, the problem are resources, we had talks about it during last linuxtag 2006
[11:03] <DaSkreech> Guess it's time to go back to .17 kernel
[11:03] <yuriy> Tm_T: can't find where to configure that
[11:09] <Tm_T> yuriy: let me check
[11:15] <Tm_T> yuriy: hmh, can't find it now, I remember seen something like "send reply to sender instead of mailinglist" tickbox
[11:19] <ScottK> I certainly agree that having kmail IMAP not suck would be a good thing.
[11:26] <marseillai> how can i remove klauncher historic ?
[11:53] <MrWGW-> well I'm thrilled to report that I have Ubuntu running on my Mac Mini on a LiveCD
[11:53] <MrWGW-> all I need to do now is install and then add Kubuntu
[11:55] <Riddell> :)
[12:00] <DaSkreech> alternate Cd?


  So additional step/process?

[09:44] <Ceri_Philippe> good morning
[11:59] <Slown> Hello
[11:59] <Slown> I'm hesitating between your system & ubuntu gnome
[11:59] <Slown> Is ubuntu compatible with gtk+
[11:59] <Slown> 3
[12:13] <alkisg> Slown: ubuntu-mate and ubuntu-gnome are both ubuntu
[12:13] <alkisg> Ubuntu is compatible and has been using gtk+ for a whole lot of years
[12:17] <Slown> yeah I know that
[16:08] <finexbeer> hi
[16:09] <finexbeer> can this ubuntu distribuzion suport a 2.00hzg
[16:11] <Astro7467> do you mean a 2Ghz CPU?
[16:12] <Astro7467> MATE is considered a medium resource Desktop environment. is viable on Raspberry Pi 3 with 1GB ram
[16:14] <Astro7467> I have set it up on Atom series CPUs with 2GB and it runs smooth unless you star to load up too many apps etc - but that will happen with any OS / Distro after a given point
[16:16] <finexbeer> thanks astr7467
