00:50.24 | martman | kind of a weird question, i heard that awhile back there was a change in the QT license and now im wondering why im not seeing some kde apps for win/max |
00:50.30 | martman | still another catch somewhere? |
00:52.23 | annma | martman: you heard |
00:52.37 | annma | you should verify what you hear |
00:52.50 | annma | and also state your question more precisely |
00:52.52 | Dhraakellian | Qt4 is available on windows under the GPL now |
00:53.10 | annma | however this is from just a few days |
00:53.24 | annma | so probably there are no apps built in that time |
00:53.25 | Dhraakellian | which means that, when KDE gets ported from Qt3 to Qt4 |
00:53.53 | Dhraakellian | and if someone actually has the motivation to get stuff compiling and working on windows |
00:53.54 | annma | and qt4 free for win does not mean qt apps for windows |
00:54.00 | Dhraakellian | then it'll happen |
00:54.17 | annma | Dhraakellian: you can't use it to build qt only app on qindows? |
00:54.21 | annma | windws |
00:54.48 | annma | martman: where was there a catch previously? |
00:55.03 | Dhraakellian | annma, well, he was asking about KDE apps |
00:55.08 | annma | yes |
00:55.19 | annma | he probably does not know what he is asking in fact |
00:56.02 | martman | kde runs on what seems to be every X, cgywin runs craploads of unix/X stuff for win |
00:56.11 | Dhraakellian | I'm sure someone will work on getting KDE to run on Windows when KDE4 comes around |
00:56.12 | martman | so i was asking is the QT license the only problem stopping them |
00:56.15 | martman | or if theres even more |
00:56.16 | annma | what was the catch previously? |
00:56.27 | annma | the problem is windows itself |
00:56.35 | martman | how is it windows? |
00:56.37 | annma | who wants to code dlls? |
00:56.41 | Dhraakellian | heh |
00:56.44 | annma | ;) |
00:56.51 | annma | martman: are you a developer/ |
00:56.59 | martman | im a wanna be one....why? |
00:57.05 | annma | ah |
00:57.09 | annma | a wanna be |
00:57.12 | annma | I see |
00:57.30 | Dhraakellian | and a lot of KDE programmers just don't want to waste time porting KDE when that time could be spent making improvements to it on *nix platforms |
00:57.37 | annma | if you want to evelop on windows, then do it |
00:57.54 | annma | 1) is there a market for your app on windows? |
00:58.11 | martman | Dhraakellian yeah, kinda figured but was afraid of that |

01:00.03 | annma | Dhraakellian: of course not |
01:00.14 | annma | as KDE is GPL |
01:00.30 | Dhraakellian | but many developers don't have that itch to scratch |
01:00.33 | annma | martman: video card? |

03:45.03 | CyberSpy | What a pain this has been |
03:46.00 | benJIman | it's never been good for kde |
03:46.03 | ironfroggy | is there anyway to have a psuedo-block device or just a file even that sound can be piped to and read for arts? |
03:46.04 | gwidion_ | Hi there... I'd need to know the staus of some translations of KDE. Documentation translations, and I can't find them under http://i18n.kde.org/stats/ . |
03:46.54 | gwidion_ | Actually I do not even know if each package documentation trasnlation is counted within the package itself, or in some separated package. |
03:47.53 | benJIman | are they still using bluecurve for kde? |
03:48.35 | Venson | not sure...i haven't used them since FC3, which i only used for a couple days |
03:48.51 | Venson | they switched to Clearlooks for Gnome....dunno if they use it for kde also |
03:49.01 | benJIman | don't think so |
03:49.18 | thiago | gwidion_: contact the translation coordinator for the language you want to translate to |

03:51.45 | *** part/#kde tron_ (~root@201.247.88.96) |
03:52.09 | ironfroggy | benJIman: the multiple artsd processes are conflicting trying to access the same dsp device |
03:52.22 | benJIman | ironfroggy: but I can output multiple things to /dev/dsp at once |
03:52.28 | thiago | you shouldn't have multiple artsds |
03:52.39 | ironfroggy | thiago: then how else can i do it? |
03:52.44 | thiago | benJIman: that means your soundcard accepts multiple streams |
03:52.47 | thiago | ironfroggy: run one only |
03:53.10 | ironfroggy | thiago: but how do i get multiple users then to use the same artsd? ive tackled this before, but ive never found a solution. |
03:53.13 | benJIman | thiago: ah so it depends on the card/driver? |
03:53.33 | thiago | ironfroggy: you can only have one user sitting in front of the computer, at a time |
03:53.38 | thiago | benJIman: yes |
03:53.51 | ananke | benJIman : cards based on emu10k1 can do that [for example] |
03:53.53 | ironfroggy | thiago: well duh |
03:54.04 | ironfroggy | thiago: but i usually have more than that actually logged into kde at a time. |
03:54.11 | thiago | ironfroggy: any other user doesn't have to run artsd, because he can't play sounds anyway |
03:54.16 | thiago | ironfroggy: ah, ok |
03:54.22 | thiago | but you can only have one user active |
03:54.44 | thiago | artsd is supposed to disconnect from the sound device after a timeout |
03:54.46 | ironfroggy | thiago: well it never seems to work anyway. i have the timeout set on artsd for 60 seconds, but the second user never seems to be able to play sound. |
03:55.02 | thiago | after 60 seconds, has it released the card? |
03:55.21 | ironfroggy | yes, although that user then has exclusive permissions to the device and i need to change them. |
03:56.11 | thiago | that isn't artsd's doing |
03:56.44 | ironfroggy | well i can solve that seperately, but when i do get the second user to grab the dsp, and artsd is running ok under that user, sound still wont play. i cant get a mixer right now. |
03:57.18 | gwidion_ | Hi Thiago - I had done that a week ago. They gave me a non-working list subscription address - and now I am in need of this information for tomorrow. |

04:02.20 | lord_crow | can anyone help me ? |
04:02.45 | Dhraakellian | not if you don't ask your question |
04:03.52 | ironfroggy | problem solved! ALL of the sound devices (including the mixer) were currently owned by my wife's account. |
04:04.00 | lord_crow | ok, this is what's happening: two days ago, i installed dropline gnome in my slackware 10.1 machine, and then, sound it's just dead, like muted, but every log and status shows that's ok |
04:04.02 | ironfroggy | i really need to take some time and work all the bugs out of my system... |
04:04.05 | ironfroggy | thanks thiago. |
04:04.38 | lord_crow | i allready ask in #dropline, and cannot help me with that |
04:04.48 | doleyb | ironfroggy: But where do your users sit, if you usually have multiple concurrent logins? |
04:04.57 | ironfroggy | doleyb: same chair. |
04:05.13 | ironfroggy | doleyb: we just use multiple simultanious X sessions. |
04:05.48 | Dhraakellian | does arts give you any sort of error message when you start KDE? |
04:05.55 | lord_crow | Dhraakellian: nop |
04:05.58 | ironfroggy | although im planning to toss in an extra video card and see if i can set up an X session on each card so we can both use the same computer at the same time. |
04:06.04 | Dhraakellian | anything about it continuing and using the null output device? |
04:06.24 | lord_crow | Dhraakellian: nop, i started artsd manually and starts ok |
04:06.49 | Dhraakellian | what does the kcontrol module say? |
04:06.50 | ironfroggy | later people |
04:06.52 | doleyb | ironfroggy: if you spend $30 on a soundblaster card, it won't be a problem at all. |
04:06.53 | lord_crow | Dhraakellian: with alsa, oss, esd, all the same behaviour |
04:07.06 | Dhraakellian | heh |
04:07.21 | Dhraakellian | anything else hogging the sound card? |
04:07.24 | ironfroggy | doleyb: i shouldnt have to. the sound drivers ought to merge the streams if the card doesnt support it. but alas, im too lazy to patch them myself. |
04:07.27 | lord_crow | Dhraakellian: nop |
04:07.54 | doleyb | ironfroggy: yes, that would seem natural... but the driver guys refuse to do so, because "That's not the documented behavior" |
04:08.43 | lord_crow | Dhraakellian: no problem, i can live without the kde events... 'cause everything else works just fine |
04:09.25 | Dhraakellian | heh |
04:09.34 | Dhraakellian | I actually turned all the notification sounds off |
04:09.52 | Dhraakellian | after I got over the thrill of rapidly changing virtual desktops |
04:10.01 | Dhraakellian | (what a rush, man!) |
04:10.39 | Dhraakellian | I got used to not having them back on an old celeron notebook with crappy speakers and a crappier headphone jack |
04:10.59 | doleyb | ironfroggy: you might consider doing it with alsa instead of arts. http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin |

09:10.45 | oGALAXYo | thats what i understood |

09:28.19 | Ravensky | PieD, I know |
09:28.38 | PieD | KDE is more a desktop with its own application, with great integration and technologies (DCOP, KIO, KParts...) |
09:28.38 | Ravensky | it's meant to be a minimalistic, yet still very featured, right? |
09:28.52 | Ravensky | kparts? |
09:28.59 | PieD | while xfce looks far far less featured for me, with no integration between applications... |
09:29.10 | PieD | kparts allows for instance konqueror to embed kpdf |
09:29.18 | StevenR | Ravensky: like having a pdf viewer inside konqueror, that's a kpdfpart |

10:05.38 | canllaith | I plut in my iPod, it is /dev/iPod. I plug in my usb disk it is /dev/usbhd. I plug in my camera and it is /dev/cybershot |
10:05.47 | oGALAXYo | i hope that the hotplug-ng stuff will mature.. i hate the hotplug scripts mess |
10:05.54 | canllaith | none of this figuring out which of /dev/sd? the bloody device is based on how many I have plugged in today |
10:05.57 | Ravensky | omgwtfbbq! the SVN checkout finished |
10:06.01 | Ravensky | ...for kdebase |
10:06.26 | Ravensky | hmm |
10:06.46 | Ravensky | when I plug in my camera, it's /dev/sda1 (at least that's what I use) |

10:13.41 | Ravensky | I had RC_USE_FSTAB="no" in /etc/conf.d/rc |
10:14.12 | canllaith | Hrm, what is that? I guess this is a gentoo thing or something? |
10:14.27 | Ravensky | I guess |
10:14.41 | Ravensky | # UDEV OPTION: |
10:14.41 | Ravensky | # Set to "yes" if you want to save /dev to a tarball on shutdown |
10:14.41 | Ravensky | # and restore it on startup. This is useful if you have a lot of |

10:14.41 | Ravensky | RC_DEVICE_TARBALL="yes" |
10:14.56 | Ravensky | the Gentoo docs says put that to no |
10:15.08 | canllaith | I suspect that would stop you having so many /dev nodes |
10:15.11 | oGALAXYo | hah what bs is that |
10:15.19 | oGALAXYo | tar'ing up dev.. |
10:15.31 | oGALAXYo | looks like udev is quite immature.. |

10:16.01 | canllaith | heh bah, uptime isn't real unless you're at least in 3 digits |
10:16.14 | Ravensky | my longest uptime is 32 days, heh |
10:16.14 | oGALAXYo | dunno, i mean i have not the best opinion of udev, dealing with it for quite some time it only ensures my opinion and now seeing this makes me add that udev is quite whacky.. |

10:16.34 | Ravensky | nice :) |
10:16.41 | canllaith | oGALAXYo: really? seeing the distro specific gentoo script makes me assume gentoo is quite whacky, rather than udev ;) |

10:20.57 | oGALAXYo | i meant that one |
10:21.04 | Ravensky | I dont get why people use irssi if you have X running. If you have X, use it |
10:21.06 | canllaith | iMac, linux desktop, linux laptop |
10:21.14 | benJIman | Ravensky: why do you ask? |
10:21.26 | canllaith | Because then I don't have to kill/logout irc on a machine that's downstairs to get on irc upstairs and see what's happening? |
10:21.49 | Ravensky | ...oh |
10:22.07 | canllaith | screen + irssi is great for leaving it running on a server then logging in from varying machines |
10:22.10 | benJIman | Ravensky: irssi is nice for running in a screen on a remote machine |

10:22.30 | Ravensky | xchat aqua! |
10:22.37 | canllaith | Yeah, it's ok. |
10:22.47 | canllaith | can't stand colloquy |
10:22.58 | benJIman | someone linked me to a gui-irssi type thing for osx a while back, can't remember where it was |
10:23.06 | canllaith | colloquy. |
10:23.08 | canllaith | It's awful. |
10:23.16 | canllaith | It's using irssi backend |
10:23.36 | canllaith | There is another irssi based client that I couldn't get working stably. So much easier to use screen. |
10:23.46 | Ravensky | I just use xchat, whether on Linux or windows |
10:23.53 | benJIman | grrr I've turned on accesskeys in this kopete window, can't turn them off |
10:24.00 | benJIman | Ravensky: but that's gtk :/ |
10:24.06 | goo | does KDE_FORK_SLAVES have any other side-effects than making kio_slaves having a proper environment? |
10:24.14 | benJIman | Ravensky: tried konversation? |
10:24.26 | Ravensky | yes, I have |
10:24.33 | canllaith | Konvi is getting very very nice. |
10:24.34 | Sho_ | canllaithn: Snak & Colloquy are pretty good on the Mac |
10:24.43 | Ravensky | it's nice, but I still like xchat better |
10:24.55 | canllaith | Sho_: no, they're not. They're bloody awful if you're using a g3. |
10:25.18 | canllaith | On the dual g5 they run ok. On the g3 machines colloquy in particular runs dog slow. |
10:25.36 | oGALAXYo | g3 without altivec is slow yes.. |
10:25.49 | canllaith | g3 runs every other app fine. |
10:25.52 | Sho_ | canllaith: Snak, too? I can see how Colloquy might have performance probs, since it's using XSL and WebCore for the presentational layer, but Snak should be fairly fast, I thought .. |
10:25.57 | oGALAXYo | beginning with g4 you can use the benefits of altivec and pull a lot of stuff through its vector unit. |
10:26.06 | canllaith | http://www.hoult.org/~canllaith/foo/fotos/cuteness.jpg |

10:54.40 | canllaith | it requires you to have your kdm set up for xdmcp |

12:50.27 | blueyed | _poison: at least it's possible with the mouse gestures plugin for firefox.. it would be the job of KHotkeys to draw it, when it detects that a gesture is being drawn. Really impossible? |

13:01.49 | blueyed | what model, _poison ? could need a new one, too. Currently it's a SB16 here - but it sucks with the alsa mixer (master volume does not affect headphone, ..).. might that be better with a Audigy? |
13:02.13 | blueyed | for win32 I had kxproject, which allowed to switch channels.. that was great. |

14:29.33 | oGALAXYo | Lucractius_Azorz: the stuff he links to is another osnews.com article about kde 3 or 4 or something.. nothing gnome related.. |
14:30.01 | lauri | dude, osnews is a hotbed of trolls, starting with the site owner |
14:30.06 | oGALAXYo | Lucractius_Azorz: an eugenia pro GNOME hate KDE kinda article.. |
14:30.18 | lauri | eugenia is a troublemaker (and a twit) |

14:31.06 | lauri | boy I have had some runins with her (she once caused an entire freebsd release to be delayed by playing up a (very trivial) KDE bug to the security@ people (it was not a security issue)) |
14:31.20 | oGALAXYo | Lucractius_Azorz: i am some kind of renegade.. a person who used to work for gnome for over 6 years and former gnome-foundation member who now switched to kde more or less.. |
14:31.24 | lauri | and we'd already published a workaround, *AND* the app in question put up a bloody huge dialog box saying "DONT DO FOO with this on freebsd" |
14:31.28 | oGALAXYo | Lucractius_Azorz: some people simply cant get along with it. |
14:31.37 | lauri | and the only way to trigger it was to go right ahead and do that precise foo :) |

14:32.29 | jeanre | I installed kopete 0.10.0 |
14:32.35 | jeanre | but I can not connect to msn |
14:32.47 | lauri | oGALAXYo: the funny thing is, she went all gnomey mostly becauase she got run off the kde lists (we didn't bow down in obeisance at her goddamn mockup dialogs, and didn't want to talk 1 px rearrangements f menus) |
14:32.55 | benJIman | jeanre: msn has changed protocol since then, you need a newer kopete |
14:32.57 | jeanre | anyone? |
14:33.00 | lauri | so she went to gnome-usability-list, and pretty much got run right off of there too |
14:33.06 | jeanre | what is latest kopete? |
14:33.19 | oGALAXYo | lauri: yeah i am aware of that... |
14:33.27 | jeanre | I am using suse 9.3 |
14:33.27 | lauri | im surprised she's not off championing e or xfce or something (or that it's our turn again) |
14:33.39 | benJIman | jeanre: there is a YOU update to fix the msn in suse 9.3 anyway |
14:34.11 | jeanre | thanks dude |
14:34.15 | lauri | anyawy, she's a twit, riding on her husbands coattails and reputation, and playing at being a journalist (claims it's journalistic responsibility to scoop a KDE release and preannounce it, thereby sinking our mirrors before they've synched, after being asked multiple times not to) |
14:34.36 | Lucractius_Azorz | E is nice ... so is XFCE... but i kinda hate how "quirky" E is unless you like lots of digging |

18:50.36 | ananke | StevenR : well, changing the content of that file would be similar to removing it. i also find that chattr would be a bit of a nasty hack to do that |
18:50.57 | StevenR | ananke: alternatively, make gnome-session not there in some way, eg -x |

20:40.08 | Swedish_Chef | i really dislike using windows |
20:40.11 | kolla_ | I was being sarcastic, I just find it ironic how people use windows as reference for how KDE should look/behave |
20:40.19 | aseigo | what's great is that every app i installed has been different thus far in installation and sometimes even the widgets of the final app. and all these cd's came in the same bundle. |
20:40.26 | Swedish_Chef | mostly because ati's drivers really suck and it causes windows to be too unstable |

20:40.54 | aseigo | parph: yeah, ooo isn't great =( we do need to get more resources behind the native office suites |
20:41.00 | benJIman | it's what they're used to, so it must be better |
20:41.11 | aseigo | chrisx2: try running: kbuildsycoca --noincremental |
20:41.36 | parph | aseigo, kde should take the lead and make it's office program compatible with word, exel etc file formats |
20:41.54 | kolla_ | chrisx2: why are you typing all words with first character in uppercase? |
20:41.57 | aseigo | parph: we do have filters but they are lacking in developer resources |
20:42.06 | aseigo | parph: if you are suggesting using that as the native format, that's the worst thing we coudl do |
20:42.16 | benJIman | indeed |
20:42.21 | aseigo | parph: the word and excel filters aren't half bad these days, but they aren't as good as the OOo ones yet |
20:42.36 | parph | I just mean it should be able to read, write word and exel files |
20:42.39 | parph | that is a must |
20:42.42 | aseigo | right... i agree |
20:43.21 | aseigo | really one of the worst things that OOo has done is deliver a half-assed office suite that works just good enough to draw attention and resources off of the much more valuable KDE and GNOME office aps |
20:43.24 | aseigo | er, apps |
20:43.40 | parph | windows users hate change generally, I suggested installing linux on my friends computer, because she kept getting viruses, trojans etc even with a firewall and anti-virus, every few months she got problems. |
20:43.43 | Theory | however, it does run on windows |
20:43.51 | aseigo | Theory: and? |
20:43.51 | parph | I installed gaim on her machine to give her a taste of linux apps and she hated it |

20:44.44 | parph | I said look, how convenient, msn, yahoo all in 1 program, she wouldn't even try using it |
20:44.47 | lauri | and you know, so many people are just sheep |
20:44.51 | lauri | and use what they're given |
20:45.05 | lauri | (I've installed a number of KDE desktops on people at work's machines) |
20:45.26 | lauri | about 2/3rds spend their first half hour looking where you change the colours and wallpaper, and then don't hardly notice it's any different |
20:45.27 | aseigo | what a difference a single word can make |
20:45.32 | aseigo | yep |
20:45.34 | parph | she barely knows how to use windows, and learning a new program, however easy is not something she wants to do. She is terrified of her computer |
20:45.46 | lauri | the other third spend their first couple of hours bitching like mad, until they realise I'm not going to give them windows back |
20:45.47 | benJIman | refusing to support windows can work well, as long as they know that no matter what viruses/adware/etc they get on their system you'll fix it they won't change |
20:46.05 | lauri | then they get on with doing their work, hardly noticing it's any different, once they actually start using it |
20:46.06 | parph | lauri, are these work users? |
20:46.13 | lauri | parph: yes :) |
20:46.24 | lauri | but the reason they get KDE is we have a web bloxy |
20:46.27 | parph | how come you are able to force them to use something |

20:46.58 | lauri | if they're using windows, they have a whitelist of websites, the corporate mail server, nothing |
20:47.13 | lauri | they don't need internet to work (just access to our webserver) |
20:47.14 | benJIman | many people seem to learn how to use things by the exact look of icons/names of things, so the slightest change throws them off completely |
20:47.19 | lauri | but the KDE users don't have to go through the proxy |
20:47.25 | parph | can they even listen to audio cd's while they work |
20:47.26 | lauri | only the windows users |
20:47.32 | lauri | parph: not on windows |
20:47.36 | parph | haha |
20:47.38 | lauri | they can if they opt for KDE though :) |
20:47.45 | parph | yeah that audio cd might give them a virus |

20:48.00 | lauri | this lot, that wouldn't surprise me |
20:48.10 | parph | what a ridiculous restriction |
20:48.14 | lauri | KDE users go through another proxy, it is quite a lot less strict |
20:48.26 | aseigo | lauri: hm. i like that strategy. a lot. |
20:48.38 | lauri | why? they're their to work (and I have a radio license for internal streaming, they can give me cd's to rip and still listen) |
20:48.44 | lauri | (don't assume things :) |
20:48.55 | parph | oh yes |
20:49.20 | parph | they use kde on what, dumb terminals or real machines |
20:49.34 | aseigo | we prefer the term "thin client" versus "dump terminal" ;) |
20:49.37 | lauri | some of both (it's turned into a good way to recycle some of the older machines too) |

20:50.20 | aseigo | good thing i don't type for a living! |
20:50.21 | aseigo | oh wait. |
20:50.34 | parph | I like dumb terminal better, it sounds more blunt |
20:50.42 | lauri | depends what I've got, and who it is (the production and packing people, they don't need much software, just a browser to get at the intranet reports telling them what stuff to pack next, and the media player, so they can fight over what to stream next) |
20:50.52 | Swedish_Chef | kolla_: i don't necessarily like the windows interface better |
20:51.08 | Swedish_Chef | it's just that i don't want my filemanager taking up more space than what it's displaying |

20:51.25 | parph | I'm trying to convince my friend to install suse linux on her desktop, but she want to buy a mac just because of all her virus problems. I'm like save your $2000 man |
20:52.38 | lauri | restricting them as hard as possible, is the only possible way to keep the viruses off their machines (and the reason to restrict the audio cd's is actually that most of hte machines have had their cd drives physically removed, because they were bringing in home burnt cd's of all sorts of weird shit, and giving themselves viruses) |

21:57.35 | Ravensky | I wish I styleclock could show 12-hour time |
22:02.27 | kolla_ | why kpowersave and not klaptop? |

22:03.29 | tuxxman | how do i start them w/o kicker |
22:03.47 | tuxxman | like from a diff wm |

22:04.21 | tuxxman | damnit |
22:04.22 | aseigo | er, appletproxy |
22:04.28 | aseigo | or just run kicker. |

22:07.09 | tuxxman | i did appletproxy klaptop.window |

22:07.34 | kolla_ | .window? |
22:07.37 | aseigo | .window? heh.. ok.. no, klaptopdaemon uses the system tray |
22:07.52 | tuxxman | whats my window |
22:07.54 | tuxxman | im lost |
22:08.00 | aseigo | so what you want to do is: appletproxy systemtrayapplet.desktop |
22:08.06 | tuxxman | oh |
22:08.16 | aseigo | then klaptopdaemon's icon will apear in there .. happy chanukah |
22:09.33 | kolla_ | it should work with ther trays too though, right? |

22:57.49 | doleyb | rumanzini: maybe kiosk mode is what you want? |
22:58.00 | grepper | you will need to change the perms |
22:58.51 | grepper | why don't you just create user accounts for them and not let them use your account ? |
23:00.46 | rumanzini | I let them using the computer, but I wouldn't like they can read my email, and I usually leave the computer downloading in p2p and in this way my session is open and they can access to kmail o whatever they want, it's that I want to avoid |
23:01.30 | rumanzini | I have done chmod 700 /usr/bin/kmail and then (copying from the icon that launches synaptic) this: /usr/sbin/su-to-root -X -c kmail |
23:02.08 | rumanzini | now it demands the root password for opening the program, I introduce it but kmail doesn't open, I don't understand :( |

23:45.36 | Ravensky | it does? heh |

23:47.48 | canllaith | They brand it, package it, add nice things to it and ask you to pay for their work. No problems. |
23:47.51 | canllaith | They also release all the sources |
