02:02.59 | dwango | (of the left screeN) |
02:03.02 | Adylas | dwango, Right side .. |
02:03.09 | motoom | If anybody has any tips how to rip spellchecking out of KDE, I'm interested |
02:03.20 | dwango | adylas, what if you drag the K button to the middle of the panel |
02:03.24 | Adylas | dwango, Like if KDE want it near near of left on center but fall to left screen |
02:03.41 | dwango | Adylas, well it doesn't appear that you can do that =) |
02:03.49 | dwango | Adylas, try making the panel smaller, and center it |
02:03.52 | dwango | in the panel options |
02:04.01 | dwango | change the size to something below 100% |
02:04.04 | CapNemo | hello :) i have a problem with kmail : i put a disconnected imap and a check every 5 minutes : but the check seems a full scan each time of all folders and the computer where the imap is gets quickly warm !!! is there a way to parameter this ?? |
02:04.26 | Adylas | dwango, Ha , if I drag it at very very center , the menu pop on center screen (it good) .. But but .. Hee I dont want that boutton at center of my bar ? |
02:04.28 | mobtek | motoom: spelling checking is good mmkay ;) |
02:05.09 | dwango | Adylas, if theres no other way currently, a quick fix might be to make the pan size "99%" |
02:05.25 | dwango | Adylas, try that |
02:05.35 | Adylas | dwango, Nope .. |
02:05.54 | motoom | mobtek: You might find spellchecking nice, but to me the uninvited red highlighting of (dutch) words I write, is offensive. |
02:06.04 | dwango | Adylas, no it didn't work? |
02:06.21 | mobtek | motoom: hahah :) |
02:06.27 | Adylas | dwango, If I make it 99% whit the K boutton at left .. its pop on wrong screen |
02:06.42 | mobtek | then use a nederlands dictionary :) |
02:06.43 | dwango | Adylas, try something more like 95% then |
02:06.56 | Adylas | dwango, Still not |
02:07.06 | dwango | strange |
02:07.23 | motoom | I write all kinds of language, mixed. And I can spell fine, I don't need no automatic spellchecking. It reminds me of Microsoft and its irritating paperclip |
02:07.24 | dwango | Adylas, what happens if you move the k button to the second button position on the panel |
02:07.33 | Adylas | dwango, I didnt look at kde bugzilla , you think there is allrdy a bug filled ? |
02:07.43 | dwango | Adylas, probably |
02:08.17 | motoom | If this spellchecking can't be turned off, that will be a disappointment in KDE for me. |
02:08.18 | Adylas | dwango, Still .. To let it pop on good screen , I need to move it "VERY" away form border |
02:08.49 | mobtek | motoom: has to be done on a per app basis methinks has kcontrol doesn't seem to have an option to turn it off on 3.3.2 |
02:09.10 | Adylas | motoom, All GUI got disappointement .. Thats normal .. They (KDE coders) cant do all ? |
02:09.22 | motoom | They did too much, in this case ;-) |
02:09.35 | motoom | BTW any option should be configurable |

02:12.27 | Adylas | Bha users get lost .. (Normal user ..) |
02:12.30 | motoom | Things should have good defaults, and not need preconfiguring (i.e. work out of the box) |

02:12.47 | dwango | Adylas, I don't know, sorry :( -- File a bug report and hope for a fix in the final =) |
02:13.20 | motoom | To prevent users getting lost, the configuration options could be split into basic & advanced options |
02:13.35 | Adylas | dwango, Well , you want to see my on front page of NY times ? Flying down form a bridge ? |
02:13.41 | motoom | With the advanced options initially hidden |
02:14.22 | dwango | motoom, well, to rephrase, too much readibly visible configurability is an impedence to usability |
02:14.34 | motoom | To that, I can agree |

16:56.29 | Roey | SadEagle: that is, Google will probably try to put in google-specific features |

20:05.28 | jones | i'm on Gentoo, I've just emerged KDE 2.4. But when I login thru KDM it still loads 3.3 |
20:05.32 | jones | any suggestions? |
20:05.39 | jones | any place where I could look in? |
20:06.05 | PieD | jones: you should start upgrading : kde 2.4 is quite outdated ! :p |
20:06.17 | sarah03 | 2.4? I didn't know that Gentoo provided ebuilds for the KDE 2 series. :D |
20:06.27 | lippel | afaik 2.4 never existed :P |
20:06.51 | jones | er sorry, typo: 3.4 of course |
20:07.42 | SteamedPenguin | jones: how did you emerge KDE 3.4 ? |
20:07.43 | illissius_ | jones: in kdm's menu thingy see what sessions there are, and select 3.4 if it's there |
20:07.53 | SteamedPenguin | jones: is it slotted |
20:08.14 | PieD | how can I get kcontrol3 (from kdenonbeta in cvs) ? |
20:08.18 | jones | I emerged 3.4 using the x86 keyword |
20:08.25 | PieD | I downloaded kcontrol3 folder |
20:08.43 | jones | illissius_, there's no 3.4 session available in kdm |
20:08.43 | PieD | but what do I need more ? |
20:08.56 | PieD | jones: ? Did you install KDE 3.3 AND KDE 3.4 ? |
20:09.14 | illissius_ | jones: then look around in /etc/X11/Sessions and edit stuff if necessary |
20:09.16 | lippel | jones: you could also create your own .xsession and use "custom" or whatever that's called in kdm |
20:09.22 | illissius_ | or just search the forums |
20:09.25 | jones | PieD, I had 3.3, emerging created a new branch in my filesystem |
20:09.46 | PieD | jones: silly behaviour... (I don't use gentoo) |
20:10.02 | jones | PieD, yes, I was astonished by tat, actually |
20:10.14 | SteamedPenguin | jones: emerging 3.4 should only create a new branch if you tell it to |
20:10.22 | jones | PieD, I have both 3.3/ and 3.4/ dirs in /usr/kde/ |
20:10.37 | sarah03 | Hm. I still have KDE 3.2.1 installed. |
20:10.45 | sarah03 | [And 3.3.1, and 3.4b2.] |
20:11.58 | illissius_ | jones: you could just get rid of 3.3, emerge unmerge =kdelibs-3.3.2 et al, and then rm -rf /usr/kde/3.3... it's what I used to do anyways, I take no responsibility if it does bad things 8) |
20:12.17 | jones | :) |
20:12.33 | jones | illissius_, i won't sue you, don't worry |
20:14.52 | lippel | actually, different branches coexist peacefully in gentoo... and removing 3.3 won't solve the kdm problem i guess |
20:15.18 | jones | I agree |
20:15.33 | lippel | the only problem are maybe apps like k3b which are installed to /usr instead /usr/kde/branch |
20:15.36 | jones | and because of the fact that i'm running 3.3 but updated most programs to 3.4, they don't work |

20:45.44 | annma | dwango: ok - we're trying to understand gentoo better because lots of users have gentoo |
20:46.06 | dwango | I guess I used the "monolithic" ebuilds |
20:46.19 | dwango | I'm just reading up on it now (should have read up on it before!) |
20:48.49 | PhilRod | dwango: what do the gentoo KDE packagers recommend? the full packages, or the split ones? |
20:48.53 | annma | so you emerged kde base for example |
20:49.16 | dwango | PhilRod, they're recommending the split, and the monolithic will be discontinued with KDE4 |
20:49.43 | dwango | annma, correct. "emerge kde", or "emerge kdebase", "emerge kdelibs", etc. |
20:50.06 | annma | dwango: monolithic will be stopped? |
20:50.09 | annma | why? |
20:50.15 | dwango | I don't know. |

20:50.30 | annma | thanks, dwango |
20:50.36 | PhilRod | dwango: I'm not very familiar with the gentoo system - does that mean that you will/won't be able to "emerge kdebase" in kde 4? |
20:50.44 | dwango | annma, the split method is preferable, if it works correctly |
20:50.55 | annma | preferable? |
20:51.01 | annma | but why? |
20:51.15 | annma | when you compile kde from cvs you compile whole modules |
20:51.21 | annma | that's what we devels do |
20:51.43 | dwango | annma, from a user's point of view, I suppose. |
20:51.44 | PhilRod | splitting kdebase is a bad idea - the other packages, not so bad, provided all the deps are correct |
20:52.00 | annma | if we have modules it's for a good reason |
20:52.07 | annma | this reason is shared code |

21:51.29 | SteamedPenguin | StevenR: exactly my thoughts |
21:51.43 | Zxcvb_ | if KDE doesn't include ActiveX support normally then wine should not be on the requirements list |
21:51.54 | lauri | hey! no hat! |
21:52.00 | lauri | Zxcvb_: it's not |
21:52.30 | Zxcvb_ | lauri: it is on here http://kde.org/info/requirements/3.3.php |
21:52.50 | Zxcvb_ | lauri: WINE- optional - "The KDE web browser Konqueror can use some ActiveX controls, such as the Quicktime video player, with WINE." |
21:52.59 | lauri | *optional* |
21:53.06 | Zxcvb_ | lauri: if activex is limited to kdenobeta then it should't be on there at all |
21:53.22 | Zxcvb_ | lauri: I was expecting it to work after getting all the kde source packages and compiling |
21:53.32 | lauri | well, it doesn't |
21:53.57 | Zxcvb_ | lauri: any reason why it isn't in kdeaddons yet? |
21:54.08 | troy | Zxcvb_: probably because it doesn't work :) |

22:38.45 | fred87 | cool |
22:38.57 | StevenR | mbevan: "hangs" ? in what way....it'll take a while, fish is slower |
22:39.29 | mbevan | StevenR: It never connects. I.e. "hangs while connecting". I see two kio_fish processes, each with one ssh sub-process. |
22:39.52 | StevenR | mbevan: give it time |
22:40.22 | StevenR | mbevan: can you connect to the server you're trying to sftp/fish through ssh normally? |
22:40.45 | mbevan | StarScreem: ... sftp:// used to do wonderful things like ask me about usernames and passwords and such. I suspect fish:// would do the same. As it is not, I fear it suffers the same problem, using the same ssh command line to launch the sub-process. |
22:40.55 | mbevan | s/StarScreem/StevenR/g |
22:40.56 | lauri | fish doesn't abide by ~/.ssh/config settings, for what it's worth |
22:41.12 | mbevan | StevenR: Yes, I can SSH in normally. |
22:41.15 | StevenR | lauri: it does use the keys though |
22:41.32 | lauri | yes, but if you have things like different user name, protocol, hostname set up in there, it won't know them |
22:41.36 | mbevan | StevenR: I have a key... I'll try moving my .ssh directory out of the way and try again... |
22:41.50 | lauri | keys are fine, I use them day in day out, both sftp and fish |
22:41.59 | StevenR | mbevan: there's something odd with your ssh setup...what distro, kde version, ssh version? |
22:42.01 | lauri | you have the same username either side? |
22:42.27 | mbevan | lauri: Unfortunately, this is not a perfect world. No, they are different. |
22:42.40 | lauri | did you try fish://remote-user@hostname |

22:45.25 | lauri | I suspect whatever your problem is, it's fixed in 3.4 |
22:45.28 | lauri | but it's a bit hard to tell |
22:45.37 | mbevan | lauri: Whatever my problem is, it wasn't a problem until a few days ago. |
22:45.49 | mbevan | lauri: And nothing has changed, either server-side or client. |
22:45.49 | lauri | and what did you change where a few says ago?= |
22:46.08 | lauri | *something* changed - things don't just stop working |
22:46.14 | lauri | rack your brain |
22:46.27 | mbevan | Things in this world often stop working of their own volition. I'm used to it. |
22:46.46 | lauri | heh, come on, you'd be surprised how often something like changing window decoration can make some-random-app completely stop working |
22:46.49 | lauri | *something* changed |
22:47.22 | lauri | were either side rebooted (are they normally rebooted on a schedule) - could an older change to a daemon configuration on the server side have suddenly been kicked into effect for instance |
22:47.28 | mbevan | I 'emerge sync'ed and didn't install or update any packages. I do that each morning I come in here. |
22:47.46 | lauri | I once had a typo in tcpwrappers sit there for 2 months, before a reboot made it take effect - and completely lock everyone out of the machine |
22:48.19 | lauri | but there's *always* something that changed, even if it's not obvious what it is |
22:48.23 | mbevan | lauri: (Bravo! I've had similar happen in the past...) Server uptime is 90+ days, workstation is up and down like a hoars drawers bouncing between Linux and Windows. Many times each day. |
22:48.41 | lauri | the server is yours |
22:48.41 | lauri | ? |
22:48.49 | mbevan | lauri: If only. ;) |
22:49.09 | lauri | ok, can you run another sshd in debug mode on another port, and fish:// to that |
22:49.13 | mbevan | lauri: OpenSSH may have been updated on the workstation - which is my initial thought as when I try to run SSH the same way the various kio slaves do, it fails on a command line argument. |
22:49.16 | lauri | very often it'll tell you exactly what's wrong |
22:49.19 | canllaith | Check /dev/null |
22:49.28 | canllaith | make sure it's a character device on the workstation |
22:49.32 | canllaith | (since you say it's up and down all day) |
22:49.34 | lauri | heh, oh yeah, that too (how *does* that happen?) |
22:49.35 | mbevan | canllaith: I've done that. And /dev/random... and /dev/urandom... and /dev/world. |
