00:11.05 | Renze | problem solved |
00:11.07 | nicergol | How about some debate, folks? |

00:12.16 | villr[]ye | Renze: right. let's make a police state out of IRC. |
00:12.22 | nicergol | Are you then going to be so complacent and SILENT? |
00:12.29 | Slack4020 | my juK wont even start up |
00:12.29 | Renze | villr[]ye: it is already |
00:12.31 | villr[]ye | if i wanted an environment like that then i wouldn't be here. |
00:12.41 | nicergol | Or are you going to be crying out to high Heaven to see me LIVING MORE HUMBLY? |
00:12.48 | Slack4020 | andwhat do i put for external sound ? |
00:13.00 | villr[]ye | Renze: no it isn't. and the fact that nicergol is here proves that. |
00:13.07 | Renze | Slack4020: I recommend "play" from the sox package... it plays pretty much every format there is |
00:13.22 | Slack4020 | Renze: i want to use juK |
00:13.30 | villr[]ye | and how many bots come in compared to actually users to make what you're asking for useful. |
00:13.36 | Renze | Slack4020: build JuK with more output support than just artsd |
00:13.44 | Slack4020 | Renze: but again what do i put in the external thingy |

00:14.44 | Renze | maintaining an ignore list takes effort |
00:14.48 | nicergol | But the intereseting thing is that you STOP caring the moment I am YOUR POLITICIAN. |
00:15.04 | villr[]ye | It's exactly this mentality which has allowed Bush to get away with instating legalized torture in the first place. |
00:15.05 | Renze | especially when the bots have a new IP each time |

00:16.08 | Ardonik | nalioth: it's a bot. |

00:16.52 | Renze | villr[]ye: finished your diatribe yet? |
00:17.18 | villr[]ye | Renze: if you're finished bitchin' about the bot... |
00:17.35 | Renze | the bot is gone, in case you hadn't noticed |
00:17.36 | Ardonik | villr[]ye: the only one I see going apeshit right now is yourself -- forgive my Greek. |
00:18.00 | Ardonik | Yes, I despise Bush too. But I don't see why you should take it out on Renze. |
00:19.27 | villr[]ye | Ardonik: a) I'm not taking it out on Renze. I'm simply drawing parallels between people giving up there freedom's for percieved freedom and b) if Renzehadn't been "going apeshit" himself then I would've stayed quiet |
00:20.06 | villr[]ye | Renze: just like anyone here has the right to feel however they want, and likewise I can disagree. Verbally if necessary. |
00:20.25 | Renze | perceptions vary, I guess |
00:20.31 | villr[]ye | indeed |
00:21.04 | phlux | Does KDE come with some type of calendar/planner? |

00:45.18 | Slack4020 | manually ? |
00:45.30 | Ardonik | Slack4020: that depends heavily on the distro and not a whit on KDE. |
00:45.33 | Sutoka | Slack4020: your package manager |
00:45.42 | Slack4020 | like how can i know all what files are stored in a program |
00:45.48 | Slack4020 | no i cant use package manager for this |
00:45.53 | Slack4020 | i want to un unstall juk |
00:46.01 | Slack4020 | and thats inside of my KDE multi media package |
00:46.12 | Sutoka | Slack4020: get a distro that packages kde better |
00:46.30 | Ardonik | Slack4020: you still need to uninstall it using your distro--that's the way you installed it. |
00:46.48 | Ardonik | If all you did was build it from source, you can make uninstall, but otherwise, you *have* to use the package manager. |
00:47.00 | Slack4020 | i didnt build this distyro |
00:47.11 | Slack4020 | you dont understand |
00:47.22 | Slack4020 | i need to build juK from source |
00:47.29 | Ardonik | Then build it. |
00:47.33 | Slack4020 | buuut |
00:47.40 | Slack4020 | i need ot un install the older one i have here |
00:47.41 | Sutoka | Slack4020: you can install it somewhere else, earlier in the path |
00:47.50 | Ardonik | make uninstall from the old source code tree. |
00:47.54 | Renze | you don't need to uninstall if you're installing the built version in the same place |
00:47.59 | Slack4020 | but the one i have instaled the package is combined with like 6 programs |
00:48.13 | Ardonik | Make uninstall will only remove what make install installed. |
00:48.21 | Slack4020 | Renze: well i would like to remove the old version before i build the new :P |
00:48.42 | Renze | Slack4020: then you will have to use your package manager |
00:50.41 | Slack4020 | lol |
00:51.13 | Slack4020 | is there a way i can see what dir's juk ues? |
00:51.21 | Sutoka | Slack4020: depends on your package manager |
00:51.24 | Ardonik | By asking your distro's package manager. |
00:51.33 | Renze | use your package manager to list the contents of the package |
00:51.45 | Ardonik | Slack4020: the fact that you've received the same answer from three different people several times ought to tell you something. |
00:53.04 | Lektron | What does the fact that I received no answer from anyone tell me? My feelings are hurt . . . nobody likes me . . . wahhh ! |
00:53.17 | Lektron | ;) |
00:53.23 | Sutoka | Lektron: i don't think theres a kaudiocreator irc channel |
00:53.33 | SuN | Lektron: don't worry, we know the answer. It's just a personal thing. |
00:53.39 | Renze | Lektron: we can't answer your question until you can provide us with a list of every relevant package updated in your dist-upgrade |
00:53.45 | Lektron | ouch ! |
00:53.52 | SuN | :) kidding |
00:53.56 | Slack4020 | whats the *nix command to remove dir ? |
00:54.01 | Sutoka | Slack4020: rmdir |

00:59.47 | Slack4020 | anyways i never compiled anything from kde svn do they require i have anything to do that ? |
00:59.52 | Slack4020 | i am going to compile juk |
00:59.59 | Renze | a working build chain |
01:00.03 | Slack4020 | i mean require as in anything wierd and extra |
01:00.22 | Sutoka | Slack4020: which part of svn? trunk? |
01:00.37 | Sutoka | Slack4020: if so, you need kdelibs4 and a good bit of other things, and it'll just die probably on startup |
01:00.48 | Slack4020 | no no |
01:00.53 | Slack4020 | i want to build kde 3 juk |
01:01.48 | Sutoka | then you shouldn't need anything special, except a build tool chain and the corresponding -dev or -devel packages (don't remember which debian uses) |
01:02.08 | Renze | he's a slacker, methinks |
01:02.39 | Sutoka | i thought he said debian... |

01:52.54 | Renze | wtf is U3? |
01:54.12 | Sutoka | wtf |
01:54.17 | Sutoka | i just looked at the wikipedia article |
01:54.32 | Sutoka | its a hack to make it flash drives work nice with windows apps it looks like |
01:54.44 | Renze | ah, so it's useless |
01:54.45 | Sutoka | "U3 is responsible for the development of a proprietary application design specification created for Microsoft Windows operating systems so that applications can be executed directly from a specially formatted USB flash drive." |
01:55.17 | Sutoka | ""U3 smart drives" differ from traditional USB flash drives because they come preinstalled with the U3 Launchpad, which emulates the Windows OS start menu, and controls program installation." |
01:55.21 | Kyral | wheras in Linux all you gotta do is set the exec option in FStab :D |
01:55.38 | Renze | Windows blows goats |
01:55.50 | Sutoka | "The U3 Launchpad is a program manager that is preinstalled on every U3 smart drive, and is set to autoplay on insertion. [1] Since the autoplay feature doesn't work on USB mass storage devices, a partition with the U3 Launchpad pretends to be a CD/DVD-ROM device." |
01:56.08 | Sutoka | but this is too funny |
01:56.18 | Endler | Yeah, I know it's mostly for Windows, but you never know, Linux guys get their fingers in everything and figured someone might be doing something with it for Linux. |
01:56.33 | Renze | unlikely... it's a useless feature |
01:56.56 | Renze | there is no reason to support it outside of Windows |
01:57.02 | Sutoka | it requires modifications to windows programs to work... haha |
01:57.43 | Sutoka | you should have no problem accessing it from any OS though |
01:58.22 | Endler | I might not have full access to all the space though, if I don't remove it. |

02:23.59 | xsacha | if there's a top bar and some text beneath it for example, the top bar will appear then a humungous white space with the other text at bottom of page.. when page fully loads the text comes back up |
02:24.07 | xsacha | 10mbit cable, amd64 3000+ |
02:24.21 | caustiq | xsacha: that's not normal |
02:24.22 | xsacha | it all happens in less than a second on most pages but it's annoying |
02:24.41 | Sutoka | checked both digg and slashdot, and they do anything like that |
02:24.42 | Renze | it's because the server isn't sending the css information soon enough |
02:24.49 | xsacha | has happened on every distro and every version of konqueror i've used :S |
02:25.02 | Sutoka | s/they do anything/they don't do anything/ |
02:25.04 | Endler | I'll bet their is an option to not display page until it is fully rendered. |
02:25.14 | Endler | there |
02:25.28 | Sutoka | most likely its the server not sending the css file till after the page is done downloading |
02:25.51 | xsacha | in IE and firefox, when something below renders before something above, the thing below will be in its correct position straight-off |
02:25.53 | Slack4020 | i un installed arts |
02:26.06 | Slack4020 | so to use amarok what do i need to install ..........something like akode ? |
02:26.14 | Renze | xine-lib |
02:26.21 | Sutoka | Slack4020: xine |
02:26.23 | Slack4020 | Renze: i didnt want xine :( |
02:26.37 | Renze | why not? xine is great |
02:26.47 | Slack4020 | it is |
02:26.53 | Renze | or are you one of these mplayer zealots? |
02:26.53 | Slack4020 | well i always thought of xine as a gnome thing |
02:26.57 | Sutoka | nope |
02:27.05 | Renze | no, xine has never had anything to do with gnome |
02:27.11 | Sutoka | gstreamer is the 'gnome thingy' |
02:27.22 | Sutoka | at least as far as any of the frameworks go |
02:27.43 | xsacha | for some reason my xine doesnt give out sound, but i havent been bothered to check it out |

02:28.16 | Jucato | gstreamer wanted it to be a GNOME *and* KDE thingy... |
02:28.27 | xsacha | then they shouldnt have used the 'g' |
02:28.31 | Endler | Is there a known with Xine using SDL? |
02:28.31 | Renze | too bad they're too lame to lock down an API |
02:28.42 | Slack4020 | also for playing videos in my browser what do i need ? |
02:28.43 | Endler | known issue |
02:28.47 | Renze | uh? |
02:28.48 | Slack4020 | KMplayer |
02:28.51 | Slack4020 | rught ? |
02:28.54 | w00tnation | anyone ever seen the error "Could not backup tocfile" from k3b when trying to burn a cd? |
02:29.11 | Renze | w00tnation: nope |
02:29.14 | xsacha | slack, many many things.. you could use kmplayer, or there is a variety of plugins |
02:29.18 | xsacha | vlc has a plugin for example |
02:29.19 | *** join/#kde seezer_ (n=seezer@e179161002.adsl.alicedsl.de) |
02:29.33 | Sutoka | gstreamer can't even maintain a somewhat stable abi |
02:29.45 | Slack4020 | wellll |
02:29.50 | Sutoka | which is the primary reason kde dumped it as being the default framework of kde4 |
02:29.59 | Slack4020 | Renze: but do i need Mplayer installed then ? |
02:30.04 | Jucato | xsacha: I think GStreamer isn't really a GNOME/GTK specific project. it's a freedesktop project that GNOME just decided to use by default |
02:30.07 | Renze | Slack4020: no, kmplayer can use xine |
02:30.12 | Slack4020 | i see |
02:30.18 | Slack4020 | can Kplayer use Xine as well |
02:30.19 | Slack4020 | ? |
02:30.23 | Renze | no idea |
02:30.44 | xsacha | can i burn cds with dvd+rw-tools ? |
02:30.53 | Sutoka | xsacha: yes |
02:30.55 | Slack4020 | man im going to really have to write an ocaml binding for KDE/qt stuff |
02:31.10 | xsacha | yay! :D cause cdrecorder has been eating discs but dvd+rw-tools working fine |
02:31.13 | Endler | Yeah, what's the deal with linux libraries changing their interfaces on virtually every release? |
02:31.18 | Renze | Slack4020: you do what to camels? :D |
02:31.37 | Slack4020 | :D |
02:31.42 | Endler | I though the whole point was to keep the interface static |
02:31.46 | Slack4020 | its a programming language if you didnt know |
02:31.51 | Sutoka | Endler: ask the gstreamer guys, kde3 kept binary compatibility the entire series |
02:31.55 | Renze | Endler: most of them do... just not gstreamer for some reason |
02:32.07 | Renze | Slack4020: I know :P |
02:32.21 | Renze | Slack4020: but I couldn't pass up the opportunity :D |
02:32.22 | Endler | xorg org seems to thing they need to change it with each release. |
02:32.30 | Sutoka | Endler: and gstreamer should have an EASIER time cause its C, while kde is C++ |
02:32.35 | Renze | they only changed it with 7.1 |
02:32.41 | Slack4020 | also what all oes amarok use ruby wise ? |
02:32.51 | Endler | And again with 7.2, didn't they? |
02:32.52 | Sutoka | Endler: 7.1 was the first time they broke binary compaitility in a long time |
02:32.58 | Renze | Endler: not that I know of |
02:33.16 | Renze | Slack4020: scripts, last.fm proxy, amongst other things |
02:33.25 | xsacha | i really like ctrl key on konqueror :D very handy |
02:34.07 | Slack4020 | Renze: i hope not to much |
02:34.37 | Slack4020 | << loves ruby syntax etc everything design wise ........but it is the slowest programming language well its a tad faster then javascript |
02:35.44 | *** part/#kde imbezol (n=imbezol@igloo.bigfiber.net) |
02:37.00 | Slack4020 | that gtk-qt .7 works flawless so far for me |
02:37.04 | Endler | I assume that has more to do with current implementation than an inherit limitation of Ruby. |
02:37.14 | Slack4020 | Endler: ? |
02:37.26 | Slack4020 | ruby was not written with speed in mind |
02:37.38 | Slack4020 | and embedded solution like lua would have been much more suitable |
02:37.38 | Renze | I would guess that nobody has bothered to optimise the interpreter yet |
02:37.39 | xsacha | Sutoka: when using growisofs for my cd, i should use /dev/cdrom .. or stick to /dev/dvd (it's a dvd drive)? |
02:37.48 | Slack4020 | Renze: they are trying |
02:37.52 | Slack4020 | YARV |
02:37.59 | Renze | xsacha: I'll bet both symlinks point to the same device |
02:38.00 | Slack4020 | but its not coming along all to well :P |
02:38.11 | xsacha | yes, you're right :O thanks |
02:38.57 | xsacha | :-( /dev/dvd: media is not recognized as recordable DVD: 9 |
02:39.13 | Slack4020 | anyone else here ever used that gtk-qt ? |
02:39.39 | Renze | Slack4020: in the past, yes... but now I prefer QtCurve |
02:39.48 | Slack4020 | why ? |
02:39.56 | Slack4020 | did it not work right or something ? |
02:40.10 | Renze | there was some instability |
02:40.13 | Endler | Well, I don't know much about Ruby, but you could make just about any language fast if you implemented differently. I'll bet someone could code a super fast native Java compiler, for example. |
02:40.20 | Slack4020 | Renze: try .7 |
02:40.46 | Renze | [I--] [ ~] x11-themes/gtk-engines-qt-0.7-r1 |
02:40.54 | Slack4020 | Endler: of course but right now theres only 1 real implem. andd all this and that ........so yea |

02:41.10 | *** join/#kde kW__ (n=kwkw@d10-235.dip.axsp.de) |
02:41.16 | Slack4020 | i dont see any instability with .7 |
02:41.25 | Homer | Endler: to a certain extent, staticly typed languages will always outperform dynamically typed languages |
02:41.29 | Slack4020 | but i wish the developer would beef up his works a little |
02:41.41 | Renze | Slack4020: try using the sliders in The Gimp, by clicking on either side of the handle instead of on the handle itself |
02:41.54 | Slack4020 | Homer: take a look at Euphoria Programming .........it will differ with your statement |
02:42.13 | Slack4020 | Renze: with .7 ? |
02:42.21 | Renze | Slack4020: with any version of gtk-qt-engine |
02:42.31 | Slack4020 | hmmmmmmm he needs ot fix that |
02:42.40 | Slack4020 | i love GTK :) |
02:42.50 | Renze | I prefer Qt |
02:42.53 | Slack4020 | i like the regualr theme but i prefer my qt theme |
02:42.53 | unity | blasphemy |
02:43.05 | Slack4020 | well i prefer gtk in programming thats for sure |
02:43.12 | Homer | blasphemy! |
02:43.14 | Sutoka | GTK's api is a mess |
02:43.20 | Renze | I prefer Qt's API |
02:43.24 | Slack4020 | theres about 200 api's for it |
02:43.28 | Sutoka | plus it was a total PITA to find documentation |
02:43.35 | Slack4020 | i have never used the pure C api |
02:43.52 | Sutoka | actually i was never able to find api documentation for gtk |
02:43.53 | Slack4020 | i use ocaml api pascal api freebasic api and a few others |
02:44.03 | Slack4020 | gtk is much faster |
02:44.12 | Sutoka | you mean you use gtk bindings for ocaml freebasic, etc? |
02:44.16 | Renze | what crack you smokin' boy? |
02:44.22 | Homer | I have to agree with that, at least Qt 3.x vs GTK+ |
02:44.23 | Sutoka | Slack4020: in what sense? |
02:44.27 | Slack4020 | qt is a langual ein langual |
02:44.55 | Endler | I assume slack was bemoaning the performance even relative to other dynamically typed languages. |
02:45.01 | Slack4020 | Sutoka: well not really freebasic i only tried them once |
02:45.14 | Endler | How slow is it Slack? |
02:45.18 | Renze | people still use basic? |
02:45.24 | Slack4020 | lol |
02:45.30 | xsacha | gah ill just burn it on to a dvd instead |
02:45.35 | Slack4020 | FreeBasic is not as bad as you might think |
02:45.43 | Slack4020 | compiled / faster then c++ |
02:45.59 | Endler | ocaml looks very interesting. Have you done much with it? |
02:46.04 | Slack4020 | yes |
02:46.07 | Slack4020 | its my favorite |
02:46.10 | Slack4020 | :D |
02:46.17 | xsacha | burning it at 10MB/s :) |
02:46.20 | Homer | hey |
02:46.22 | Slack4020 | its like lisp without all the secrets for me anyways |
02:46.26 | Homer | speed is all about the compiler |
02:46.29 | Homer | not the language |
02:46.33 | Slack4020 | but you can use it in functional way as well |
02:46.38 | Endler | It's very unconventional, that's for sure. |
02:46.45 | Slack4020 | what is ? |
02:46.49 | Endler | ocaml |
02:46.53 | xsacha | ./dev/cdrom: "Current Write Speed" is 8.2x1352KBps Sutoka: i had to use a dvd :( |
02:46.57 | Slack4020 | you mean different ? |
02:47.08 | Ash-Fox | Homer, the resulting code is what's most important to me about a compiler. |
02:47.13 | Endler | Yes, a completely different paradigm. |
02:47.20 | Slack4020 | Endler: no , ;) |
02:47.28 | Sutoka | xsacha: it looks like before the iso was made for a dvd 9 (dual layer dvd) and not a cd |
02:47.29 | Slack4020 | you ever used php beofre ? |
02:47.51 | xsacha | the iso was made only for cd... but the growisofs tool has nothing for cds :( |
02:48.15 | Slack4020 | Endler: not that i like php im just saying |
02:48.42 | Endler | It is supposed to be like Hascal, but allowing functional programming too, so more practical than pure. |
02:49.07 | Slack4020 | Endler: you can program however you want in Ocaml |
02:49.19 | *** join/#kde Ardonik (n=ardonik@adsl-67-127-233-140.dsl.irvnca.pacbell.net) |
02:49.21 | Slack4020 | my current project i am not using ANY functional code |
02:49.46 | Endler | Yes, I know, but if you do it purely functionally, you are somewhat defeating the purpose. |
02:50.00 | Slack4020 | and i think Haskell is the correct one |
02:50.03 | Slack4020 | Endler: no lol |
02:50.17 | Slack4020 | theres many versions of ML langs |
02:50.18 | Slack4020 | :P |
02:50.27 | Slack4020 | Ocaml is the implmentation i like |
02:50.41 | Slack4020 | i code more like lisp / pascal / like C with it |
02:50.53 | Slack4020 | and it runs out very good and half again as fast to program in |
02:50.54 | Endler | Take a look at Clean some time. |
02:51.04 | Slack4020 | Clean ? |
02:51.35 | Homer | ppl still use lisp? |
02:51.54 | Slack4020 | of course |
02:52.02 | Slack4020 | i persoanlly like Ocaml / Erlang |
02:52.23 | Slack4020 | Erlang is not as fast but is very good at handling processes / performance is that direction |
02:52.32 | Homer | I like words I can prononce |
02:52.50 | Endler | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clean_(programming_language) |
02:52.51 | Slack4020 | lol |
02:54.11 | Endler | Looks like it's kind of been abandoned though. Interesting concept though. |
02:54.25 | Slack4020 | wow clean looks very interesting |
02:54.47 | Renze | looks quite a bit like Haskell |
02:55.04 | Endler | Yes. |
02:55.18 | Endler | It's very pure and "clean." lol |
02:55.24 | Homer | I think brainf**k is the way to go |
02:56.33 | Endler | I wonder if there is a language named "Homer." If not, there should be. :) |
02:57.06 | Slack4020 | well i will check this clean stuff out |
02:57.08 | Renze | def D'oh! |
02:57.47 | Endler | Maybe they use it to program nuclear power plants. |
02:57.53 | Renze | uh oh |

03:06.21 | Endler | Well, the guy who wrote D is actually a compiler expert, so it actually has a good implementation too. |
03:06.33 | sjr | isn't arts what KDE uses for sound? |

04:20.31 | Renze | KDE uses the freedesktop.org trash spec |
04:20.59 | Jucato | if you have no intentions of restoring the file later (which is what would happen if you use rm), you can just Shift+Del in your fat32 partition |

04:21.19 | Vuen | but i'd rather my recycle bin actually work |
04:21.32 | Vuen | where can i configure konqueror's trash? |

04:21.43 | Renze | it works fine here, but then I don't have any fat32 partitions :D |

05:36.44 | wishie | you can also convert rpm->deb etc with alien |

05:40.31 | wishie | Renze: when i was told to do that in my debian box, i got the artwiz fonts working in non-KDE apps, but not KDE-apps |
05:40.34 | SAS_Spidey01 | lol Renze |
05:40.41 | wishie | KDE wouldnt show the fonts in the font list at all |
05:40.45 | wishie | ill give it a go though |
05:40.57 | Renze | wishie: there is nothing in KDE to enable/disable a specific type of font |
05:41.19 | wishie | Renze: but KDE uses fontconfig, or something, doesnt it ? |
05:41.25 | wishie | so perhaps that is where my problem lies. |
05:41.42 | Renze | true... check your fontconfig settings too |
05:42.23 | Renze | I haven't changed mine, however, and bitmap fonts work fine in gentoo here |
05:42.44 | Renze | can't stand the artwiz fonts, though... they go against my sense of style :D |
05:42.57 | wishie | now that i think of it, the trick on my debian systems was defoma |
05:43.33 | Renze | Jucato: I just use .ttf to avoid all the issues :D |
05:43.41 | Jucato | hehe |
05:43.50 | wishie | fonts are a pain in the ass in linux |
05:44.01 | wishie | i just want to use the 'anorexia' font from the artwiz package |

05:53.51 | Jucato | hehehe |
05:54.03 | Wayward4now | well, in the beginning there were some fanatics |
05:54.06 | Jucato | I tried GNOME (ubuntu) for 3 weeks tops. didn't hate it. but didn't like it either |
05:54.21 | wishie | the thing is, the people who didnt like KDE said it was because QT wasnt 'free' |
05:54.31 | Wayward4now | who throw all kinds of insults at KDE/ Qt |
05:54.34 | wishie | well, "isnt" is the term they use |
05:54.35 | Renze | Qt has been GPL for six years+ |
05:54.55 | wishie | i know there is GPL now, but they dont seem to know that (or dont want to hear it) |
05:54.58 | Wayward4now | they still made a huge stink in the Stallman crowd |
05:55.31 | Jucato | funny that Qt is GPL, while GTK is LGPL :) |
05:55.52 | wishie | http://www.arouse.net/despair-linux/ <-- heh, i love this bookmark |
05:55.53 | Wayward4now | I know... the whole episode stank |
05:56.10 | Jucato | wishie: well someone did acknowledge that Qt is now free, but wanted an apology from KDE. caused quite a ruckus among the devs |
05:56.40 | wishie | apology for what? making GNOME look crap in comparison ? |
05:56.56 | wishie | "we are sorry that KDE makes GNOME look like junk" |
05:57.13 | Jucato | wishie: I forgot. I read about it months ago, and the statement was made years ago |
05:57.21 | Jucato | the dust has settled down, fortunately |

06:35.23 | benJIman | Solifugus: but kdelibs is almost like an extension to Qt, There's not really anything you can use without using Qt, and you certainly wouldn't be able to build it without Qt. |

(3) Yes, with a commercial Qt license, closed source software can be written against kdelibs. (4) No, you cannot use GTK with kdelibs, kdelibs is in many ways an extension to Qt. |
06:39.03 | Solifugus | benJIman: that's fine.. so long as it's legal to write an app closed-source that can say, call a fileopen dialog and get a file stream or filename from it..for example |

06:40.51 | SAS_Spidey01 | rolf, my blog & my pc-bsd sig |
06:41.05 | Sho_ | Solifugus: Qt4 offers integration with the glib main event loop, so Qt4 apps can make use of Glib/GTK resources. But you can't eliminate Qt out of the picture if you want to use any KDE technology. |
06:41.21 | lunitik | qupada: what about VMWare? (sorry, I was distracted) |
06:42.07 | Jucato | meaning, if you want to use anything KDE, you need Qt. so if you want to make a closed-source app, you'd need to buy a license from Trolltech |

06:43.24 | Jucato | heh |

06:44.12 | lunitik | Basically: unused RAM is WASTED RAM... its not good to be using 20% of RAM, because then your processor has nothing to do, or has to wait on the harddrive.... BAD |
06:44.22 | Solifugus | Sho_: yes.. I see.. I might buy one... not just yet, it's pricey. |

07:08.02 | Schalken | Renze: yes it is |
07:08.12 | Renze | Mon Oct 23 20:08:04 NZDT 2006 |
07:08.14 | Renze | no it isn't |
07:08.15 | wishie | my mum is going to yell at me. she hasnt seen the car i bought. |
07:08.17 | Renze | :) |
07:08.24 | Jucato | lol |
07:08.30 | wishie | so i want it to be all sparkly, to minimize the yelling |
07:08.43 | Jucato | 8pm? |
07:08.48 | Renze | wishie: attach some glitter to the dirt |
07:09.01 | AegeanLinux|DnD | Mon Oct 23 07:09:24 GMT 2006 |
07:09.01 | Schalken | Shirakawasuna: a Mac? theyre expensive, especially when you add on the cost of software to put on it |
07:09.08 | wishie | Renze: i just wanna give it a quick wash, and a vaccuum |
07:09.09 | Shirakawasuna | Schalken: lies |
07:09.11 | AegeanLinux|DnD | hmmm, 7:09 am here :/ |
07:09.17 | Jucato | heh |
07:09.31 | wishie | my mum is one of the ones that doesnt believe in spending lots of money on a car. |
07:09.40 | wishie | she would rather me drive a $1000 shitbox |
07:09.42 | Shirakawasuna | Schalken: more expensive than barebones + linux maybe, not cheaper than windows boxes for the same hardware config |
07:09.43 | Renze | AegeanLinux|DnD: you make a distro, and you can't even get your clock right? ;) |
07:09.48 | Shirakawasuna | Schalken: especially when you add in software |
07:09.48 | AegeanLinux|DnD | wishie: and you spent how much |
07:09.57 | SAS_Spidey01 | You in the UK AegeanLinux|DnD ? |
07:09.58 | wishie | AegeanLinux|DnD: i _little_ more :P heh |
07:10.00 | AegeanLinux|DnD | Renze: no, I can not be bothered setting it right |
07:10.04 | wishie | well, ALOT more |
07:10.12 | AegeanLinux|DnD | $10,000 ? |
07:10.15 | wishie | more. |
07:10.20 | Shirakawasuna | Schalken: you essentially need no programs but firefox/x-chat/openoffice and *bam* you're good |
07:10.22 | AegeanLinux|DnD | a-ha ;-) |
07:10.22 | Renze | $1,000,000? |
07:10.28 | AegeanLinux|DnD | lol |
07:10.31 | wishie | Renze: i wish. |
07:10.37 | wishie | nah, i got a 5 series bmw |
07:10.41 | Renze | wishie: one googolplex? |
07:10.45 | AegeanLinux|DnD | :O |
07:10.56 | Schalken | how can i make KGet not ask me where to save every file i drag onto it? its very tedious with all these files, i just want em all in my home directory! |
07:11.35 | Jucato | Schalken: it's somewhere in the settings... |
07:11.44 | Jucato | ugh... can I get more vague than that? |

07:12.17 | *** part/#kde grothesk (n=thomas@d463d12f.datahighways.de) |
07:12.21 | Jucato | in fact, you can teach KGet to download certain types of files in certain folders |
07:13.04 | wishie | AegeanLinux|DnD: yeah |
07:13.07 | SAS_Spidey01 | that would be useful |
07:13.31 | wishie | i been working hard, so i thought id spoil myself |
07:13.31 | Shirakawasuna | (or a scooter) |
07:13.40 | AegeanLinux|DnD | just give me the money, I will by the cheapest new car, and then buy a few computers ^_^ |
07:13.43 | SAS_Spidey01 | I usually use ~/Downloads, my desktop and <my_USB_Stick>/var/tmp/ |
07:13.49 | wishie | i bought a 1998 aspen silver 523i |
07:14.16 | wishie | it has a pc in it :) with lcd touchscreen in the dash now :) |
07:14.39 | Schalken | Jucato: i looks like i can set the default for different types of files, but cant make it not ask me every time |
07:14.45 | AegeanLinux|DnD | btw Renze, I have fixed my desktop: http://tim.aegeanlinux.be/pix/wik-kplato1.png |
07:14.46 | Schalken | it* |
07:14.59 | SAS_Spidey01 | its funny, I've been on dos/nt most of my life but unix style directory structure permiates my file systems |
07:15.04 | Jucato | Schalken: sorry I couldn't be more specific. I'm not on Linux right now... |
07:15.12 | Slack4020 | how can i have Kplayer work with xine ? |
07:15.29 | wishie | kplayer ? whats that ? |
07:15.34 | Renze | AegeanLinux|DnD: still too cluttered :D |
07:15.44 | wishie | i use kaffeine for video |
07:15.49 | Slack4020 | yea |
07:15.50 | Shirakawasuna | Slack4020: most people use kmplayer nowadays |
07:15.50 | AegeanLinux|DnD | you do not like the clearlooks win deco Renze ? |
07:15.53 | Slack4020 | im trying ot use kplayer |
07:15.56 | Renze | AegeanLinux|DnD: nope |
07:15.59 | Shirakawasuna | Slack4020: and kmplayer can use xine |
07:16.00 | AegeanLinux|DnD | ^_^ |
07:16.02 | Slack4020 | kmplayer ? |
07:16.11 | Shirakawasuna | yes |
07:16.12 | Renze | AegeanLinux|DnD: because it's dekorator |
07:16.12 | SAS_Spidey01 | kmplayer is kde frontend to mplayer |
07:16.13 | wishie | Shirakawasuna: why not just use kaffeine ? |
07:16.15 | Slack4020 | i thought that is the browser plugin ? |
07:16.18 | AegeanLinux|DnD | Renze: no it is not. |
07:16.27 | *** join/#kde roxy_ (n=roxy_@machine219.bibu2.u-cergy.fr) |
07:16.31 | Shirakawasuna | because xine-lib-1.1.2 doesn't work correctly with my grahpics card |
07:16.32 | AegeanLinux|DnD | It is a hacky port of clearlooks |
07:16.35 | wishie | kaffeine handles DVB better, ive found. |
07:16.36 | Shirakawasuna | corrupts the gamma for videos, it does |
07:16.37 | Sho_ | Slack4020: It's standalone, too (and one still doesn't insert a space before question marks, btw) |
07:16.41 | SAS_Spidey01 | http://kplayer.sourceforge.net/ |
07:16.43 | Renze | kmplayer can use xine-lib too |
07:16.46 | Shirakawasuna | (for the Xv plugin) |
07:16.58 | Slack4020 | well i already got kplayer installed :P |
07:16.59 | Jucato | it's so confusing... KPlayer and KMplayer... |
07:17.06 | Shirakawasuna | I know |
07:17.08 | Shirakawasuna | there's two of them |
07:17.12 | Slack4020 | is there any Kplayer plugin for Konq ? |
07:17.18 | Shirakawasuna | I have lots of problems when there are two things at a time |
07:17.20 | SAS_Spidey01 | I think kplayer might use mplayer for a backend or it's so simular it's hard to tell |
07:17.44 | Shirakawasuna | whenever someone asks me to consider three things, I hurt them |
07:17.48 | Sho_ | Jucato: Considering that KPlayer appears to be dead for a small eterinity now ... I'm wondering how anybody is still finding it ;) |
07:17.53 | SAS_Spidey01 | all I really want out of a media player is good dvd support and play any thing I can try to play, that makes me love mplayer hehe |
07:18.13 | wishie | mplayer? it cant even do dvd menus |
07:18.14 | Schalken | Jucato: yay! it seems if you turn on 'expert mode' it does it automatically |
07:18.19 | SAS_Spidey01 | PC-BSD has a PBI of kplayer and FreeBSD has it in ports |
07:18.23 | Slack4020 | can Kplayer work with Xine ? |
07:18.29 | Slack4020 | or is it just Mplayer ? |

07:20.39 | wishie | well, my gentoo system is finally starting to shape up.. |
07:20.39 | Shirakawasuna | Slack4020: kplayer is no longer updated |
07:21.09 | Sho_ | Shirakawasuna: There appears to be some movement in their CVS repository, perhaps there's a release ahead after all |
07:21.15 | Slack4020 | i dont really care but i want ot use one or the other xine or mplayer |
07:21.18 | Shirakawasuna | huh |
07:21.21 | Shirakawasuna | Sho_: weird |
07:21.23 | AegeanLinux|DnD | Sho_: even WMV's with DRM stuck onto it ? |
07:21.25 | Slack4020 | i dont want this program using this and this using another |
07:21.31 | Shirakawasuna | you'd think kplayer/kmplayer wouldn't compete :) |
07:21.39 | AegeanLinux|DnD | WMV videos like that looked garbled to me, what about you? |
07:21.51 | Sho_ | AegeanLinux|DnD: I don't think I've encountered one yet |
07:21.59 | Shirakawasuna | AegeanLinux|DnD: like what? |
07:22.05 | Renze | AegeanLinux|DnD: that's how they're supposed to look ;) |
07:22.17 | AegeanLinux|DnD | Renze: riotio |
07:22.22 | wishie | is there a terminal emulator that supports real trans yet ? |
07:22.31 | SAS_Spidey01 | how is xine ? |
07:22.42 | AegeanLinux|DnD | Shirakawasuna: Like the LOST episodes you download from Yahoo7.com.au |
07:23.00 | Slack4020 | is there only one video brwoser plugin ? |
07:23.05 | Sho_ | is there a typing virus floating around? :) |
07:23.13 | Renze | AegeanLinux|DnD: that's why you download avis from bittorrent instead :D |
07:23.15 | Shirakawasuna | AegeanLinux|DnD: I download no LOST episodes :) |
07:23.18 | Jucato | lol |
07:23.21 | Shirakawasuna | AegeanLinux|DnD: anything smaller? |
07:23.27 | Sho_ | wishie: I believe Konsole is supposed to have some amount of COMPOSITE support these days |
07:23.31 | Shirakawasuna | I almost never have problems w/ any format/codec |
07:23.41 | Shirakawasuna | in fact it's far easier in linux than in windows |
07:23.53 | AegeanLinux|DnD | Shirakawasuna: Limewire do a search for pr0n |
07:24.06 | AegeanLinux|DnD | I am sure you will get some DRM protected material there |

07:24.29 | SAS_Spidey01 | between K-Lite Codec pack+Media player classic and Mplayer windows is well stocked |
07:24.43 | AegeanLinux|DnD | Jucato: I only have to install the 'codecs' package |
07:25.08 | Renze | I only have to set one use flag :D |
07:25.10 | Jucato | AegeanLinux|DnD: same here. what I'm saying is that I'd still have to install codecs :) |
07:25.11 | Sho_ | On Gentoo, I set up the right USE flags during install, and pretty much all codecs I'd ever want - including the unfree ones - are installed alongside the players automatically |
07:25.25 | Sho_ | And beyond that, I've never had to do anything |
07:25.43 | Renze | Sho_: ditto |
07:25.49 | Shirakawasuna | AegeanLinux|DnD: I have no limewire :) |
07:26.08 | AegeanLinux|DnD | I will try and download you one then Shirakawasuna |
07:26.23 | Shirakawasuna | Sho_: by unfree you mean win32codecs or you actually paid for them? |
07:26.32 | Sho_ | Shirakawasuna: win32codecs |
07:26.41 | Jucato | w32codecs |
07:26.48 | Sho_ | Shirakawasuna: and mp3, etc. |
07:26.52 | Shirakawasuna | yep |
07:26.54 | Shirakawasuna | me too |
07:27.09 | Jucato | no. nonfree here means, not free as in free speech |
07:27.30 | SAS_Spidey01 | There is only one thing I don't like about KDE as a whole |
07:27.53 | Shirakawasuna | kwin has no good themes? |
07:28.10 | Jucato | oh... themes again.. :) |
07:28.14 | SAS_Spidey01 | when ever I find a neat little option to test, alot of times theres no tool tip and little to no help files when I look |
07:28.26 | Sho_ | Jucato: You could say that themes are a recurring theme, eh? |
07:28.33 | Jucato | Sho_: lol yeah |
07:29.08 | Jucato | well, KDE-Look, and the current KDE Theme Manager, don't make things easy... |
07:29.26 | AegeanLinux|DnD | AegeanBot: themes is availible as 'Styles' over at www.kde-look.org . The best theme for KDE is called 'QtCurve' and makes you desktop have a consistant look. |
07:29.26 | AegeanBot | Gotcha, AegeanLinux|DnD. |
07:30.01 | Sho_ | SAS_Spidey01: At one point there was some thought of putting a system into debug builds that would allow users to submit tooltip suggestions for items missing them by clicking them and typing into a dialog |
07:30.17 | Jucato | ah yeah I've heard about that one |
07:30.25 | Sho_ | SAS_Spidey01: As the reasons for the lack of tooltips is ultimately lack of manpower |

07:54.00 | Jucato | Sho_: I have the GUI Programiming in C++ Using Qt 3 that's available for free :) |

08:03.07 | Jucato | Shirakawasuna: he means widget Styles, I guess |
08:03.08 | Ace2016 | i mean for compiling |
08:03.09 | Renze | styles generally need to be compiled, unless you can find a package for your distro |
08:03.17 | Jucato | Ace2016: .tar.gz? |
08:03.22 | Ace2016 | yup |
08:03.34 | Ace2016 | so what deps does it need? |
08:03.36 | Renze | Ace2016: then you need a working build tool chain |
08:03.38 | Sho_ | Ace2016: It's just like compiling and installing an application, essentially |
08:03.40 | Shirakawasuna | Ace2016: the usual ./configure && make && make install |
08:03.42 | Sho_ | Ace2016: Only Qt and kdelibs |

08:03.49 | Ace2016 | ok |
08:04.05 | Jucato | Ace2016: for one, you need "build-essential" installed |

08:15.43 | Slack4020 | its a modified root so its not quite that bad |

08:18.34 | SAS_Spidey01 | hard to, I prefer gtk+ but KDE "is teh win" to borrow a friends lingo |
08:18.37 | Sho_ | Shirakawasuna: Well, it has a lot less features than Konqueror, but its cleanness makes me prefer it (and it basically has the subset of Konq features I actually use). I certainly hope that KDE4's Konqueror will take a cue or two from Dolphin when it's time to clean it up. |
08:18.45 | Shirakawasuna | faked: that doesn't make sense - does arts start or not? |
08:18.47 | SAS_Spidey01 | Jucato, I sure would be if I was a good programmer |
08:19.11 | Shirakawasuna | Sho_: agreed, konqueror is a bit too busy, imo - and the toolbars drive me crazy |
08:19.24 | faked | Shirakawasuna, it starts, but I dont want arts get started, so what to do? |
08:19.41 | Jucato | well, hopefully the KDE 4 HIG working group would be able to work on that |

08:22.58 | Sho_ | A middle-ground between Konqueror's power and Dolphins polish and attention to detail would be the ultimate file manager. Here's hoping for KDE 4. :) |
08:23.35 | Q-collective | I never saw a problem in konq's UI personally |
08:23.37 | Jucato | which reminds me, there was been very little buzz about Konqi developments for KDE 4 |
08:23.38 | Q-collective | :> |
08:23.51 | benJIman | Konqueror's UI is great just the defaults suck. |
08:24.06 | Jucato | whose defaults? |
08:24.10 | SAS_Spidey01 | http://img224.imageshack.us/img224/5127/snapshot1bl9.jpg |
08:24.29 | Jucato | btw, is there really a sort of *default* KDE look/setting? |
08:24.34 | Sho_ | Jucato: That's because Konq hasn't really been touched so far |

08:24.42 | Jucato | Sho_: oh that's very very sad |
08:24.43 | Sho_ | Jucato: Certainly ... and Kubuntu deviates heavily from it btw |
08:25.03 | Sho_ | Jucato: Kubuntu completely restructures Konqueror's menus for example, and even omits the "Go" menu completely |
08:25.06 | novas0x2a | is there a site somewhere that walks through the kde start process? (like, order of processes, proper messages passed between them, etc?) |
08:25.32 | Jucato | Sho_: yes. that's one. but MEPIS and PCLOS also have different default looks... (not to mention icon themes) |

08:26.51 | Shirakawasuna | does anyone know the way to turn off konqueror's firefox-like search bar |
08:26.53 | Shirakawasuna | ? |

08:28.00 | Sho_ | Shirakawasuna: Note that the Google search bar plugin only shows in the dialog Renze just pointed out when the KHTML kpart is loaded (another good example of Konqueror's UI suckage) |
08:28.15 | Jucato | benJIman: besides, some of the new changes that Kubuntu will have in Edgy came from KDE devs this time :P |

08:52.49 | benJIman | It would be slow. |
08:52.53 | benJIman | It would be uncustomizable. |
08:52.53 | Ace2016 | I still like the idea of a theme designer, then if you don't like a part of a theme you can change it |
08:53.08 | benJIman | Ace2016: you already can with most theme engines, with supplied settings. |
08:53.08 | Ace2016 | without needing to ask the person that made it to change it |
08:53.12 | Jucato | Ace2016: maybe a widget style designer |

08:55.31 | benJIman | Jucato: It's next to impossible. |
08:55.33 | Ace2016 | how about you get a box in front of you when you open that app, thats the place the app will be in |
08:55.41 | Jucato | Sho_: widget styles |
08:55.49 | Sho_ | Jucato: Because he mentioned kwin |
08:55.53 | Ace2016 | Sho_: both |
08:55.59 | Jucato | er... |
08:56.03 | rohan | when i insert a usb pen drive, and open system:/media i get an option to unmount and safely remove the pen drive. but clicking on safely remove does nothing |
08:56.05 | Sho_ | Ace2016: You can make pixmap window decorations |
08:56.07 | rohan | whats the intended action ? |
08:56.08 | Jucato | Ace2016: you already have dekorator for window decorations... |
08:56.17 | Jucato | and IceWM too |
08:56.23 | Sho_ | Ace2016: KDE ships a window decoration engine that can load IceWM pixmap decorations, and another popular one is Dekorator |
08:56.26 | benJIman | The pixmap window decorations are /sooo/ slow though. |
08:56.31 | Renze | rohan: it syncs the filesystem and unmounts |
08:56.42 | Sho_ | Ace2016: As for widget styles, again, a pixmap abstraction model is just not viable due to the complex requirements a style engine needs to fulfill |
08:56.43 | benJIman | decorator at least. |
08:56.45 | Jucato | which is a disadvantage of pixmap based themes, iirc |
08:57.02 | Ace2016 | ok here is another idea |
08:57.17 | Jucato | ok you first, then my question later... |
08:57.30 | AegeanLinux|DnD | deKorator was never slow for me when I used it :/ |
08:57.37 | rohan | Renze: well, even after clicking on it, the green arrow is still there .. meaning it is still mounted, right ? |
08:57.39 | Sho_ | Ace2016: Source code is the easiest tool there is to make style engines that can fulfill these requirements |
08:57.49 | AegeanLinux|DnD | Same speed as now with a native window decoration. |
08:58.09 | Renze | rohan: yes, unless the icon isn't being updated for some reason... 'cat /proc/mounts' to make sure |
08:58.15 | Sho_ | Window decorations aren't exactly performance-critical or complex, pixmaps are fine for that |
08:58.21 | rohan | Renze: ok, i'll try right now |
08:58.22 | benJIman | Sho_: they're really not. |
08:58.29 | Sho_ | (of course Dekorator can still implement it badly) |
08:58.35 | Jucato | ok, since Ace2016 isn't asking yet. I'll ask away... |
08:58.43 | benJIman | Sho_: redrawing dekorator speed is really not goodenough. |
08:58.53 | rohan | Renze: nah, its still mounted after clicking on that option too |
08:58.56 | Sho_ | benJIman: Hmhm, I haven't tried it yet |
08:59.04 | rohan | does "Safely remove" require any external app ? |
08:59.09 | Jucato | is there any way at all, or any app, that would help you visually create a widget style, then later convert it to source code perhaps? |
08:59.10 | Renze | rohan: I could not tell you why |
08:59.21 | benJIman | also because they're pixmap themes you can't change the colours, change the button order etc Sho_ |
08:59.21 | rohan | does "Safely remove" require any external app ? |
08:59.25 | Renze | rohan: pmount, but if it's mounting you already have it |
08:59.26 | Ace2016 | rohan: had device manager |
08:59.29 | AegeanLinux|DnD | Jucato: yes, one that you write ^_^ |
08:59.34 | Sho_ | Jucato: You could possibly write such an app, but using it would be more complex than to learn programming and write it yourself |

09:00.44 | AegeanLinux|DnD | Jucato: I know, I was just saying ^_^ |

09:02.08 | Slack4020 | pixmap is gone |
09:02.14 | Jucato | Sho_: you're right. I was just wondering if there's an app like that out there, or if someone would want to make an app like that, mostly to help non-coders :P |
09:02.41 | AegeanLinux|DnD | Jucato: would you like to make an app like that? |

09:02.55 | Jucato | benJIman: would I be asking if I knew? :) |
09:03.09 | Jucato | AegeanLinux|DnD: maybe someday... KDE 5... :) |
09:03.24 | Sho_ | Jucato: It's just, in order for a pixmap style to be flexible enough to fulfill the requirements a style engine needs to fulfil, it would need to be cut up into an ungodly amount of pixmaps that need to conform to certain specifications each, making creating the thing extremely complex |
09:03.33 | benJIman | Jucato: It's completely impractical. |
09:03.44 | Jucato | er.. no I'm not talking about pixmap based stuff |

09:07.27 | Sho_ | I don't use AIM, buddy avatars annoy me (seem to work fine with Jabber, though), and the UI, to me, is preferrable to Gaim's |

09:08.25 | Slack4020 | i just love gaims UI :P |
09:08.26 | Ace2016 | when you start the app you're presented at the top left there is a preview of what it'll look like if compiled now, in front of you will be theme components like the scroll bar parts and stuff, e.g there will be a rectangular box, inside it will be the scroll bar, and you right click, set the style > e.g windows style 2 buttons either side, and the box will now split into 3 bits with squares at either end with a long rectangular bit in |
09:08.27 | Ace2016 | the end, now you right click > change width, now you have a fatter or thinner scroll bar, right click > ghost, now you get a very light watermark of the default scroll bar theme grafted onto the skelton you made, now you edit the heights of each of the bits, and then you use the tools (i'm guessing you could get code directly from krita for this) like gradients and stuff in the boxes to make your theme, and the theme could be made from |
09:08.27 | Ace2016 | this, Kidesigner (name i came up with) could then use the gradient info to make the theme, and the theme would not be source based, it will jack into an exsisting widget style which uses it. How about that? |

09:09.10 | Slack4020 | in gaim 2.0 etc |
09:09.14 | benJIman | Kopete has a new away UI in 0.12 |
09:09.31 | Sho_ | Ace2016: There already are highly configurable widget styles - Lipstik, Baghira (eww), etc. |
09:09.33 | Slack4020 | benJIman: i just never liked kopete man |
09:09.39 | Slack4020 | i am not the only one either :P |

09:10.07 | Slack4020 | not when its already beyond improvements |
09:10.11 | Ace2016 | Sho_: yea but it'll never match up to a theme designer which is made for the specific task of making a theme |
09:10.13 | Jucato | er.. |
09:10.14 | Renze | Slack4020: I like kopete, except for the lack of /ignore in the irc part |
09:10.17 | benJIman | Slack4020: that's nonsense. |
09:10.55 | Jucato | how can it be *beyond* improvment? |

09:10.56 | hkBst | does ktorrent do anything with MAC addresses? |
09:10.56 | lunitik | Slack4020: whats so wrong about Kopete? and as for the status widget... imo, its size makes the interface look ugly... |
09:10.56 | Sho_ | Ace2016: I don't believe a style designer to be technologically viable, but go out and prove me wrong ;) |
09:10.57 | Jucato | Slack4020: the fact that it's open source means that it will never be "beyond" improvement... |
09:11.02 | benJIman | Slack4020: your main complaints are UI which is quite easily modifiable, and considerable work is going into that anyway, your other complaint is about a proprietary obsolete protocol. |
09:11.09 | AegeanLinux|DnD | Ace2016: sounds a cool idea |
09:11.10 | Renze | Slack4020: even the main gaim developer thinks kopete is better |
09:11.14 | lunitik | Slack4020: not to mention its interface in general reminds me of the worst IM interface ever: AIM |
09:11.19 | Slack4020 | benJIman: lmao |
09:11.25 | Jucato | Ace2016: take comfort in the fact that you have at least 1 supporter :) |
09:11.25 | Slack4020 | there you go obsolete again |
09:11.35 | lunitik | Slack4020: Its configuration interface in 2.0 is also very ugly |
09:11.45 | Slack4020 | whats? |
09:11.50 | Sho_ | Slack4020: Well, it is obsolete. Newer incarnations of AIM use the same OSCAR protocol as ICQ, so the original AIM protocol is in fact entirely obsolete. |
09:12.14 | Slack4020 | well i use the same aim protocol that 90 percent os the usa use |
09:12.28 | Ace2016 | Jucato: no no no your not seeing the bigger picture, i have an entire distro development team on my side, see people want this idea |
09:12.47 | Jucato | Ace2016: oh in that case, good luck with it. prove them wrong :) |
09:12.51 | Sho_ | Slack4020: Do you have a source on that market share information? |
09:12.53 | lunitik | Sho_: Gaim folks found it useful back when AOL would block 3rd party clients... TOC never was blocked, so users could still access AIM contacts even when OSCAR wouldn't work... they just never removed it... |
09:13.06 | Slack4020 | Sho_: actually i think its in the low 80's |
09:13.11 | benJIman | AIM is quite popular in the US, but not in the rest of the world. |
09:13.12 | Jucato | Ace2016: but you see, what people "want" and what is technically feasible sometimes do not match |

09:54.15 | Sho_ | Jucato: wxWidgets is basically an abstraction layer on top of GTK on Linux, the Windows-native stuff on Windows, etc. - so it's a different approach |
09:54.30 | Slack4020 | they were going ot use QT at one point |
09:54.32 | Slack4020 | Qt |
09:54.42 | Slack4020 | instead of gtk or switch or something |
09:54.54 | Slack4020 | but never did becasue of license |
09:55.18 | Jucato | I guess that's the price they wanted to pay for being cross-platform... using the native widgets of the OS... |
09:56.19 | lunitik | Jucato: That is usually perfered actually afaik |
09:56.47 | Jucato | makes things easier, I guess? |
09:57.03 | Sho_ | lunitik: Yeah, but it's also a cludge in terms of having to design an API that is a lowest common denominator between those other APIs |

10:24.41 | Slack4020 | i understand that |
10:24.47 | Slack4020 | buut |
10:24.56 | hein | Slack4020: Qt apps in KDE use the style set in KDE KControl |
10:25.13 | Slack4020 | skype is QT right ? |
10:25.17 | Renze | yes |
10:25.20 | Slack4020 | now |
10:25.27 | Renze | why do you ask the same questions over and over? |
10:25.28 | hein | Slack4020: Unless they're statically linked and hard-configured to use a style they distribute themselves (like Google Earth) |
10:25.50 | Slack4020 | if Skype used GTK+ and used Qtcurve would it look like what it does now |
10:26.05 | Renze | only if you use QtCurve in KDE |
10:26.17 | Slack4020 | i am trying to see the difference between Qtcurve on KDE and regualr Qt on KDE |
10:26.26 | hein | Slack4020: Qt apps in KDE use the style set in KDE KControl |
10:26.28 | Jucato | jeh: this only happens in focus follows mouse? |
10:26.28 | Renze | what is regular Qt? |
10:26.36 | Slack4020 | Skype |
10:26.42 | hein | Slack4020: Okay, you're so not following this |
10:26.47 | Slack4020 | lol |
10:26.48 | Renze | Jucato: it happens in every focus method except "click to focus" |
10:26.50 | Slack4020 | im sooooooooooo confused |
10:26.55 | thiago | Regular Qt4 is Plastique, which looks like KDE3's Plastik theme |
10:27.02 | Renze | Slack4020: you seem quite easy to confuse ;) |
10:27.03 | jeh | Jucato: i didn't test the other modes, only "focus follows mouse" |
10:27.06 | thiago | the original Qt3 theme is really ugly, not even worth mentioning. |
10:27.10 | Jucato | Renze: ok thanks. having a hard time thinking for keywards to search for in KDE bugs |
10:27.16 | jeh | Jucato: just switched as per Renze's suggestion |
10:27.29 | Renze | I tested all of them |
10:27.30 | hein | Slack4020: (1) QtCurve is a style engine for Qt. (2) Plastik is a style engine for Qt. (3) Skype is a Qt app. (4) Qt apps use the style engine set in KDE KControl. (5) If your KDE is set to Plastik, Skype will use Plastik. (6) If your KDE is set to QtCurve, Skype will use QtCurve. |
10:27.35 | Renze | then the fix appeared :) |
10:27.40 | thiago | Slack4020: but any KDE installation will change the Qt theme to the KDE theme, so any Qt applications will like like KDE ones. |
10:27.51 | AegeanLinux|DnD | hein: ^_^ |
10:27.52 | Slack4020 | if i build my app in GTK is it possible to make it look like a Qt app ? |
10:27.54 | thiago | Slack4020: that does not mean the style is QtCurve. |
10:28.11 | thiago | Slack4020: yes, it's possible. You can set it to use a style that makes it look like a Qt app. |
10:28.13 | Renze | Slack4020: use gtk-qt-engine |
10:28.25 | hein | Slack4020: There is a style engine for GTK called gtk-qt-engine that uses the active Qt style engine to render |
10:28.27 | thiago | Slack4020: like, for instance... QtCurve :-) |

10:30.23 | AegeanLinux|DnD | Slack4020: QtCurve is native for both KDE and Gtk, hence, it should be faster |
10:30.24 | Renze | QtCurve is nothing like gtk-qt... it is just a style that happens to exist for both toolkits |
10:30.28 | AegeanLinux|DnD | ( and it is prettier ) |
10:30.31 | Slack4020 | i really understand the whole qtcurve thing i know how it loosk the same on kde and gtk+ things like gnome |

10:31.37 | annma | do you speak about qt4 programing? |
10:31.38 | Renze | Slack4020: the only way to make GTK+ apps look like Plastik is to use gtk-qt or port Plastik to GTK |
10:31.43 | hein | Slack4020: Both Qt and GTK can load "style engines" that contain the code that draws the UI elements on the screen. The style engine defines the look. QtCurve is a style engine available for both Qt and GTK, making both the same. Gtk-Qt is a style engine for GTK that loads Qt and uses its active style engine to render. |
10:31.46 | Slack4020 | how different does qtcurve look then plastik theme ? |
10:32.02 | Renze | quite a lot |
10:32.13 | Renze | but it depends on how to configure it |
10:32.16 | Renze | you* |
10:32.20 | hein | Slack4020: QtCurve is similar to Plastik, but generally uses bolder bevels, etc. |
10:32.38 | annma | if you have kde just try them all, Slack4020 |
10:32.53 | Slack4020 | i think it may be best to statically link the gtk-qt theme engine in and patch a few things if i need too and no one would ever know it was a gtk app ........well of course unless thye didnt have gtk installed |
10:33.22 | Slack4020 | i think plastik is the most commonly used theme |
10:33.26 | hein | Slack4020: Or you could just use Qt *sighs* |

12:56.09 | Sho_ | Windwalker: KControl -> Regional Accessibility -> Keyboard Shortcuts has a "Switch to Next Keyboard Layout" at the bottom that lets you configure a shortcut to do just that |

12:57.47 | Windwalker | Sho_, but I have seen this in slack personally and I saw 2 posts of people who did it too? I know they are modifiers and other shourtcuts might stop working with ctrl+shift, but I wish ti know if there is a way. |
12:59.18 | Sho_ | Windwalker: Linux is pretty flexible technology, and yes, there are numerous ways to do this, for example by using something like xbindkeys to bind arbitrary keyboard events to a dcop command to switch the keyboard layout, or rewriting some of the keyboard layout definition files, etc. However all of those require some amount of technical skill and the explanation is generally outside of the scope of this channel. However I guess xbindkeys gives you |
12:59.18 | Sho_ | something to google for. |
12:59.35 | Sho_ | Windwalker: KDE itself does not allow modifier-only shortcuts |
13:00.16 | Windwalker | I will google for xbindkeys. 10x for the advanced info :) |

13:09.10 | Fuzzy76 | yay! It worked, thanks. :) |
13:09.17 | Sho_ | Fuzzy76: Yeah. The difference is that SFTP is an actual protocol layered over SSH, whereas fish uses commands like ls etc. on the remote side to do its job |
13:10.12 | Sho_ | Or I think it actually copies over a Perl script and uses that |

13:42.40 | Sho_ | visik7: Moving and resizing yes, removing borders not. But you can use kwin's application- and window-specific settings (see KControl) to disable borders. |
13:44.13 | visik7 | why removing border that is a simple task isn't implemented ? |
13:44.58 | Sho_ | visik7: Presumably because nobody cared enough to do it, which would indicate that it's not an often-requested feature |

13:56.52 | Sho_ | annma: Style vs. color scheme vs. theme - Gnome is creating some confusion by calling everything a theme |
13:56.57 | tuxick | you mean that's not documented? |
13:57.13 | annma | it's probably poorly documented |
13:57.20 | Jucato | the confusion starts when you consider that GNOME, KDE, and *cough* Windows use the word "theme" in different ways... |
13:57.22 | annma | doc is such a pain |
13:57.33 | annma | we use "theme" and "style" |
13:58.04 | Jucato | KDE-Look puts .kth "themes" and widget "styles" under the same category, making it a lot more confusing... |

14:04.49 | Sho_ | Jucato: Technically, you can run into the same with Gnome. If you install a Clearlooks-derived Theme (essentially a color scheme) without the Clearlooks widget engine being installed, it won't work. UI-wise, Windows differenciates between themes and widget styles, too. |

14:06.48 | Sho_ | Jucato: Yeah, but is selling a color scheme to the user as a theme really that much better? |
14:06.58 | Sho_ | Jucato: Personally I prefer the differenciation in KDE |

15:22.03 | Sho_ | benJIman: Hopefully. I tried out 10.1 Remastered recently for an hour or two (first SuSE since 7.something), and the package management UI was nearly incomprehensible and spewed obscure errors about unsuccessfull synchronization with ZenWorks |
15:22.07 | smacnay | no, strike that - smbclient doesn't find them either. |

15:22.34 | benJIman | Sho_: that's just the zmd stuff which causes most of the problems, novell forced it into 10.1 |
15:22.58 | benJIman | Sho_: KDE won't require zmd in 10.2 as there is a new tray updater for KDE, gnome people will still have to live with it probably though. |

21:03.52 | Shadow_mil | Liquid_Fire: its grayed out |
21:04.00 | sephknows | Renze: for example, an ebuild says "okay, you want to emerge 'KDE' so lets make sure you have 'QT' and 'Xorg' etc" right? |
21:04.14 | Liquid_Fire | Shadow_mil: then you've set it to constantly watch your collection dir(s), so you shouldn't need to |
21:04.17 | sephknows | Renze: bad example (dont need QT for KDE possibly) but is that it? |
21:04.20 | Renze | magicbronson: unfortunately, the trash system needs some extra information as to where the file came from and stuff... using the commandline will not create this information |
21:04.31 | Liquid_Fire | Shadow_mil: if you really want to, just disable the watching in the config, rescan, and enable it again |

21:04.55 | sephknows | Renze: i think he means to move *to* trash, which would be like /home/<user>/Trash in KDE |

23:15.03 | Dr_willis | and the FILE menu in the browser |
23:15.16 | Dr_willis | but then they use IE as the browser..... |
23:15.23 | MinceR | though then you might be able to turn it off via regedit and the right knowledge :) |
23:15.36 | Deformative-II | THey use IE as the browser, the file manager, to draw the desktop, and the taskbar as well |
