00:00.08df00zthey said if it behaves different with different nvidia cards, then DEFINATLY they can look deeper into it
00:00.12benJImanit seems worse with some cards than others
00:00.12df00zotherwise, possibly not
00:00.21df00zYeah, I'm gonna test my old GF4MX again
00:00.30df00zI think it was faster, but I didn't test it too long
00:00.34benJImaneg it's annoyingly bad on mine, but on 6600/6800 machines i've installed it's really slow like vnc

01:26.53benJImanyou could just upgrade kde I think

01:27.10Chodderdapper beta is pretty stable, i have it on a laptop
01:27.22[Nige]my next question is how do i upgrade kde to 3,5 or 4 :)
01:27.32[Nige]if i run a simple update

02:59.40ShockValuehowdy all.. new linux user, had a question about cdripping in KDE if ya got a sec
03:00.08ShockValuei have k3b installed, but that looks more like a burner suite than a solid ripper... is there a good choice for ripping?
03:00.21HuntsManShockValue: KAudioCreator
03:00.23swimand when I go into dekorator Ive tried browsing to that file which is a tar.gz but dekorator says its the wrong file type... so I then extracted it into .kde/share/apps/deKorator/themes/ and it still doesnt find it
03:00.33karuna_murtiswim: what version of dekorator u use?
03:00.41ScytheBlade1ShockValue, if you're ripping audio, grimp (gnome app) comes *highly recommended*
03:00.50ShockValueHuntsMan: does that interface with cdparanoia, do you know by chance?
03:00.56swimkaruna_murti: 0.3
03:01.06HuntsManShockValue: mmm, i think yes, you should check :)
03:01.16ShockValuei was kind of trying to stay with kde/qt type apps
03:01.19karuna_murtiwell it seems the theme is for 0.1
03:01.55swimoh... no wonder... karuna_murti can I update it myself somehow?
03:02.04karuna_murtithe problem with dekorator theme in kde-look is sometimes thet don't mention for what version
03:02.05ScytheBlade1ShockValue, then stay with KDE/Qt, but really, grip does the job better than anything else I've found
03:02.07ScytheBlade1(my two cents)
03:02.12karuna_murtior bad packaging

03:03.36karuna_murtiwell, there is sample package included in dekorator, try renaming that nuvblend files following dekorator sample package

03:30.11Digital_PioneerHow do I turn it back on?

06:40.40anisXim going to edit kickercc manually
06:41.02ijwynnige_: I suspect that, for some odd reason, your bar won't display more then four application tabs?
06:41.09chavonige_, that isn't working here either
06:41.21ijwynhave you tried launching another app and see if that one appears too, or does it also stay off the bar?
06:41.29a_thingnige_: try unchecking the multiple desktop/screen stuff, hitting apply, then redo it
06:41.31chavobut i have a panel on each screen so doesn't affect me
06:41.40chavodoesn't do anything
06:41.43nige_okay i will try that,
06:42.15anisXyes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
06:42.24nige_you might be right about the 4 applications, any idea why that is
06:42.32anisXdcop kicker kicker restart , i just edit add "Size" and transparent=true

06:43.09nige_okay
06:43.46nige_okay
06:43.51nige_its now at 100%
06:43.56nige_still seems to be the same problem
06:43.57nige_:S
06:43.58a_thingIIRC there's a setting in KControl somewhere that controls what happens on taskbar overflow
06:46.26ijwynnige_: nope, no idea why it would do that, mine just squeezes everything in... might be a default setting in your distro, I dunno
06:46.41nige_hmm okay
06:46.43nige_it just seems odd
06:46.50ijwynyeah, I agree
06:47.12anisXi assume its not kde fault..maybe distro faults
06:47.22ijwynalthough I figure there must be a way to change that setting, but I have no idea how
06:47.27nige_okay
06:47.56chavonige_, looks like a bug in the taskbar
06:48.06ijwynmight be that too
06:48.13chavoyou can try adding another panel and putting it on the second screen

10:04.52zi99yyo
10:05.19zi99yanyone have a clue how I can change the window behaviour when I use the scroll wheel on a background window?
10:05.31benJImanzi99y: in what way?
10:05.32zi99yI want it not to steal focus, like the way gnome does it
10:06.12benJImandon't think you can do that
10:06.18zi99yso I can be working on the top-level window, and use the scroll wheel on a window behind, but maintain focus on the top window
10:06.37benJImanit doesn't bring it to front, only focuses it
10:06.43zi99yyeah thats right
10:07.06benJImanyou're effectively clicking in the window, and policy is click to focus
10:07.09zi99ybut I got used to the gnome way, so I don't have to click or scroll on the top window again to resume typeing
10:07.20ganymed_is there any relation between kwallet and kvpnc
10:07.21ganymed_?
10:07.32zi99yhmm, no but it's different from a click because it doesn't move to the front
10:08.16zi99yganymed_: are you trying to store passwords for kvpnc?
10:08.25benJImanright click does't bring to front either

10:08.47zi99ybenJIman: oh yeah, I'd not noticed that
10:09.03benJImanzi99y: you could always use focus follows mouse
10:10.58benJImanbut other than that don't think you can do anything about it
10:10.58zi99yyeah I've tried that and I'm not too keen
10:10.58zi99ybut thanks, I really appreciate your input
10:10.59zi99yI'm a recent kde convert!
10:11.00ganymed_zi00y: kvpnc asks me for a passwd though i have entered in in the conf dialogue. vpnc works. so i thought it might be a problem with the kde password management...
10:11.00benJImanpersonally I like kde's way, I often for example start scrolling a backgroun web page and then decide I want to use findasyou type or something
10:11.16benJImanganymed_: I don't think kvpnc uses the wallet
10:11.39zi99yganymed_: sorry I don't use kvpnc so I'm not sure#
10:12.01zi99ybenJIman: I'm sure I'll get used to it

10:14.03|lostbyte|so i searched alot..
10:14.04zi99yon kubuntu it's /etc/kde3/kdm/...

10:15.01zi99ycan you do locate

10:15.14ganymed_os why is it asking me for a password in the debugging console?
10:15.18|lostbyte|found : /etc/kde/kdm/kdmrc
10:15.23|lostbyte|but the file has no exec ?
10:15.40zi99yqupada: whats the diff between locate and slocate ?
10:15.41benJImanno exec?
10:15.43|lostbyte|so where do i add this -nolisten tcp ?
10:15.58benJIman|lostbyte|: it will allmost certainly be there by default, unless your distro is really bad
10:16.19|lostbyte|benJIman: I searched and found something like Session=/usr/share/config/kdm/Xsession
10:16.26|lostbyte|should i go there ?
10:16.37benJIman|lostbyte|: search for ServerArgsLocal in that file to edit the arguments
10:16.39qupadazi99y: rlocate uses a kernel module and some fancy stuff to do real-time updates

18:45.49Sho_Z10N0101: Gentoo offers two sets of KDE ebuilds: the monolithic ebuilds that correspond to the modules KDE.org puts out and which will not allow you to merge/unmerge specific applications, and the split ebuilds, which will allow you to do just that
18:46.24Z10N0101Ouuch! Thant means I can not unmerge single packages
18:46.28Sho_Z10N0101: If you had emerged kde-meta instead of kde or kdemultimedia-meta instead of kdemultimedia, you could do "unmerge juk"
18:47.12Sho_Z10N0101: The *-meta packages just pulling in all the seperate packages from the split ebuilds, whereas the non-meta packages are just the modules as they come from kde.org

18:51.11Z10N0101When is this update gonna come up

18:55.55annmayou?
18:56.05Sho_Z10N0101: When KDE 3.5.2 is released the corresponding ebuilds will be masked by the ~arch keyword, i.e. ~x86. And yes, you can certainly unmask and install them, which is what I will do.
18:56.57Sho_Z10N0101: Basically, you want to be able to install/uninstall seperate applications; the split ebuilds will allow you to do that. You currently have the monolithic ebuilds installed which you need to remove in order to replace them with the splits. KDE 3.5.2 is a good opportunity for that since you need to recompile KDE on that occasion anyway.
18:57.29Sho_Z10N0101: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/kde-config.xml and specifically http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/kde-split-ebuilds.xml offer additional information on the KDE split ebuilds in Gentoo Portage

20:46.08Sho_idP: I believe someone has already developed experimental C# bindings for Qt, yes
20:46.22benJImanSho_: i've not seen any progress on them since 2003ish

20:47.29PhilRodidP: if you're interested in helping with the Qt C# bindings, we can probably find the person you need to talk to
20:47.36Sho_idP: The chances for Java support look better
20:47.41Q-collectivebenJIman: I see
20:47.44Q-collectivebah :(
20:47.52benJImanc# bindings would be very nice
20:48.11benJImanSho_: free java implementations are less far along than mono unfortunately
20:48.24Q-collectiveSho_: I find kmplayer very clumsy, it's barely working right at any given time
20:48.35idPsho, i wish i could.. the reason i ask, I study c# and will take cources on it.. so i like to use it with kde evelopement

20:54.21mainits great that u cant use too many languages for kde
20:54.31mainotherwise KDE would be a mess like gnome
20:54.36Sho_benJIman: Well I'd be a bit apprehensive of the legal situation around Mono as well, is my gut reaction without having looked into the matter more closely
20:55.20benJImanSho_: well mono is GPLed, the only potential problem I know of is that microsoft can charge a "reasonable and non-discriminatory fee" for use of the standard
20:57.06HamishTPBbenJIman to my mind that is Lawyer speak for "M$ can stick their oar in if they want to"
20:57.13Sho_Interestingly, Microsoft announced a version of WPF for Mac/Safari and Firefox at MIX, and claimed they would "actively support Linux and Solaris implementations"
20:57.26benJImanWPF?

20:59.48Q-collectivewhat are the guys at ms smoking?
20:59.51Q-collectiveI want some
21:00.03Sho_Q-collective: Well, it might have just been for the marketing, of course
21:00.15Q-collectiveprobably
21:00.16Sho_But they did show it running in Safari on Macs
21:01.08Q-collectivelike "we ship our next version of windows in 2003, oh no, 2005, no wait, 2007! Haha, got you, 2006. No wait, it's 2007 again"
21:01.11Q-collectivelove that
21:01.17Sho_:-)
21:01.43PhilRodinuka: there are no other kde email clients that I know of
21:02.33Sho_benJIman: Basically they have developed a new set of platform/UI libraries and an XML dialect, XAML, to instanciate those classes, it's all based around sort of a document object model. In terms of capabilities it does rich 2D/3d graphics. Deployed in browsers, it looks like it's supposed to take on Flash/Shockwave.
21:02.55benJImanSho_: yeah I watched some of the presentations on it
21:03.23benJImanI doubt it's any more open than flash/shockwave though

21:53.37HamishTPBconga: there may be some older versions of stuff like "m$ core fonts" and the like - generally keep what you have installed already if there is a name conflict - unless there is a huge size difference - in which case the larger font is probably the unicode version

21:55.24congaHamishTPB, what program you use to view those fonts?
21:55.32HamishTPBBlissex: I hoard them all - I could clear out loads if I was brutal :)
21:55.52BlissexHamishTPB: well, KDE does something to avoid problems with large numbers of fonts, by sharing font tables etc. where possible, but it is still not good.
21:56.11HamishTPBconga: I just use the KDE font installer or if I want to look at a specific font I load it in the KDE font viewer
21:56.21congaoh
21:57.07HamishTPBBlissex: if a font is not it use by any running app will it really matter except when I am in a font selection dialogue? If it makes a big difference to anything I probably will tidy them up
21:57.52HamishTPBSho_: the KDE Font installer in the control panel is not too bad - could do with more features but it works ok
21:58.00benJImanyoucan also install fonts with fonts:?
21:58.02BlissexHamishTPB: it does matter a bit, or more than a bit, depending on circumstances. If there was a font server like for X it would be OK, but KDE uses Xft2, and that loads a table of all fonts in each process.

22:12.23BlissexSho_: in any case tens of thousands of lines is nothing to be afraid of nowadays.
22:12.27Sho_HamishTPB: I thought along the same lines once, but got so scared by the font stack cruft that I gave up
22:12.36Sho_HamishTPB: The KDE/Qt UI is the easy part
22:12.52BlissexSho_: in part it is also the patent issues, but also the lack of availability of good TTF editors.
22:12.56HamishTPBBlissex: hehe - Old school the way it used to be. Did anyone here ever use TOS/GEM on the Atari - fonts were hours, days, weeks, months.. of fun
22:13.21BlissexSho_: but there is another solution, to use Type1 fonts and spend more time tuning the autohinter.
22:13.37BlissexSho_: for example there is a little known detail about Type1 fonts....
22:13.53Sho_Blissex: I think the best solution would be a machine that manages to make 300 dpi OLED display panels out of kitchen garbage

22:14.46BlissexSho_: the 'type1' rasterizer in X is not awesome, but the 'freetype' rasterizer can do both Type1 and TTF fonts, and does pretty well on the Type1 fonts. And Type1 fonts are far more common and more open than TTF.

22:16.00benJImanmy current monitor does about 120-150dpi , you could buy a monitor in 1995 that did that
22:16.02Sho_yap, see Blissex

22:16.40benJImanCRTs still are

22:19.00HamishTPBSho_: not really played with it much, which is odd for me :)
22:19.13BlissexHamishTPB: ahhh but thats not quite right either, because there are little known MS Windows setting that allow people to scale a bit better than usual. But they are little known. The defaults are all that matter for most people (why is IE so popular? because it is the default)

22:29.07Tm_TSho_: yeah, 12" mac lappy could be perfect to me
22:29.12Sho_HamishTPB: Actually the display is the worst about the iBook

22:29.17benJImanSho_: the dock has an internal optical drive

22:29.48benJImanif not smaller
22:30.01Sho_benJIman: i don't want to frill with a dock, I want a self-contained unit. I hate nothing more than carrying around a number of peripherals to get functionality I feel is essential.
22:30.11Sho_benJIman: Hence, the 12" iBook really floats my boat ;-)

23:06.13HamishTPBStevenR: Yeah :)
23:06.14fatejudgeris there a way to have one kicker panel transparent and the other one not?
23:06.15BlissexHamishTPB: there are three memory impacts...
23:06.36BlissexHamishTPB: 1) all configured fonts are listed in a single in memory table.
23:07.00BlissexHamishTPB: 2) fonts that get actually used in any way have their descriptors loaded too, never removed.
23:08.40BlissexHamishTPB: 3) rendered glyphs are cached, and the cache is per process and fixed size. Which means that if you _use_ lots of fonts they compete heavily for the font cache.
23:09.18BlissexHamishTPB: actually I suspect that at least in some versions of FontConfig/Xft2 all font descriptors are loaded at the start.
23:09.35HamishTPBso my main problem in "everyday" use is number 1 - for each font installed I am using xKB per font just to index the list somewhere?
23:09.59HamishTPBBlissex: and when I start using a font based app I get hit by 2 and 3

23:10.15BlissexHamishTPB: well, with KDE it is a bit different.
23:11.03*** join/#kde morexyz (n=sirc@toronto-HSE-ppp4038281.sympatico.ca)
23:11.09morexyzhi, how does konqueror substitutes fonts?
23:11.13BlissexHamishTPB: in theory what I say above is _per process_. Each process has its own copy of all the font data: a completely copy of the font table, and then of the descriptor, and then of glyphs.
23:12.10HamishTPBBlissex: so the fact that I can choose any of my numerous fonts for e.g. my IRC client (kvirc) is adding to the memory use of the application?
23:12.38HokinonHi peeps how do I change the kdm login theme?
23:12.54BlissexHamishTPB: again for KDE it is a bit different. The default however is that each app loads a copy of the complete font table, etc.
23:13.19BlissexHamishTPB: the complete font table is the list of all fonts in all directories listed in '/etc/*.conf'
23:13.40HamishTPBBlissex: ok - so using KDE and Kapps a lot means I *am* adding that overhead?
23:13.48BlissexHamishTPB: KDE does things a bit differently (that is much better) if you use 'kdeinit' and 'kwrapper'

23:45.12benJImanfatejudger: when it's progressed to a stage where a roadmap can be predicted at all accurately there will be a roadmap
23:45.14fatejudgerbenJIman: as do most of the main coders
23:45.25HamishTPBfatejudger: I think keeping quiet when there is not a very full picture is better than letting imaginations run riot

23:52.31t35t0ris there a graphical udev setup application being worked on with kcontrol?
23:53.02BlissexSteven_M: I am currently running 32 bit, but it seemed OK at the time. Note that there are several taskbar options for choosing which ones appear or not.
23:55.04Blissext35t0r: 'udev' is still a bit unstable, and also I suspect it is part of a job-security-through-obscurity strategy.
23:55.15t35t0rHAHAHAHAHA

23:55.30t35t0rare you kidding me
23:55.53t35t0rBlissex, are you a kde dev?
23:56.22Blissext35t0r: no, but let's say I am a developer in general. And one that stupidly does not practice that principle.
23:56.51t35t0rso you think you should be practicing that principple?
