Kubuntu_2006_06_06
11:16 Riddell so let's start === toma is Tom Albers === Riddell is Jonathan Riddell 11:16 pygi imbrandon, I as well? :) === Hobbsee is asleep. === Tonio_ is Anthony Mercatante === pygi is Mario Danic === Lure is Luka Renko === imbrandon is Brandon Holtsclaw === kmon javier === linuxmonkey is Terry Jacob (Tired.Staying up too late helping people with raid) === Keybuk [n=scott@quest.netsplit.com] has left #ubuntu-meeting [""] 11:17 Riddell agenda is at https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/Meetings 11:17 Riddell and kmon has the first item 11:17 imbrandon pygi: add your self to the agenda with a link to your wiki page then ;) === Hobbsee is actually Sarah Hobbs 11:18 pygi imbrandon, nah, edubuntu one tommorow 11:18 pygi Don't wanna bother people with 2 thingies :) 11:18 kmon ok, my first point is an idea to centralise unofficial packages for kubuntu dapper === goldenear is Nicolas Le Guen 11:18 kmon and to do it in a way to avoid replication 11:18 claydoh claydoh is Clay Weber 11:18 Riddell I think this is handled by the last item at the tech board 11:18 Riddell and new packages should be in backports 11:18 kmon maybe give uploading priviledges to people in kubuntu.de to kubuntu.org 11:19 kmon ok 11:19 Riddell what's on kubuntu.de at the moment? 11:19 Tonio_ I wanted to say the same Riddell 11:19 Lure Riddell: so kde, amarok will go to backports soon? 11:19 kmon amarok which is a duplicate 11:19 Tonio_ we don't really make usage of backports repository... 11:19 kmon kaffeine 0.8 11:19 kmon which is new 11:19 pygi Tonio_, we can make Kubuntu backports team 11:19 kmon k3b 11:19 kmon and other few 11:19 toma (rsibreak) 11:20 imbrandon kmon: yea centralized in -backports, kubuntu.org is more for early adopters and testers that know whats going on 11:20 Tonio_ imbrandon: I agree 11:20 Riddell we can't backport things until edgy is open so that's made a gap, but the tech board was saying that edgy-backports will be open as soon as edgy closes for upstream version freeze 11:20 pygi Riddell, indeed 11:20 Tonio_ Riddell: good news 11:20 Hobbsee Riddell: when is UVF for edgy 11:20 Riddell I did try to backport all of KDE but backports was broken at the time so it never happened 11:20 toma good 11:21 Riddell Hobbsee: timetable will be set at the paris summit 11:21 Hobbsee that's what i thought 11:21 linuxmonkey cool 11:21 ogra we might not have UVF in edgy :) 11:21 kmon and how about giving priviledges to upload to the kubuntu.org package archive? 11:21 Tonio_ Riddell: I think there was an issue with breezy-backports 11:21 Tonio_ since packages don't have to be changed from the +1 version and the change to debhelper5 11:21 pygi ogra, that would be joy :) 11:21 Riddell kmon: I can't do that, it's a canonical server 11:22 kmon ok 11:22 Riddell kmon: but the packages on kubuntu.org are KDE and KDE projects only to get the KDE developers liking kubuntu 11:22 ogra pygi, its an official proposal so it might be discussed 11:22 Tonio_ that will not happen with dapper/edgy so make usage of backports should be easier 11:22 imbrandon kmon: or maybe not package archive as they are currently signed with Riddell key but as Hobbsee said people.kubuntu.org/~imbrandon/ etc 11:22 pygi ogra, we would get more uptodate packages, but lot less bugfixes 11:23 Riddell imbrandon: wait for that agenda item :) 11:23 Hobbsee imbrandon: apparently that's cannonical staff only... 11:23 ogra pygi, thats the plan (but OT in here now) 11:23 kmon then maybe a wiki page or something like that so people can coordinate efforts and avoid duplication 11:23 kmon and for users to have a single point to check out for newver software 11:23 kmon since dapper is going to be here for a long time 11:23 imbrandon kmon: that sounds alot more feasable , so kubuntu.org and kubuntu.de can work togather 11:23 Riddell kmon: backports is that point 11:24 kmon ok 11:24 imbrandon kmon: but also kubuntu.org IS unofficial repos , thus only ealy adopters untill it hits backports 11:24 Hobbsee and Czessi.net, for that matter 11:24 kmon so the answer is wait for backports? 11:25 Lure kmon: I think it is clear now: kubuntu.org is primarily for KDE releases (same day as announcement), while backports is when those are ready for wider testers 11:25 imbrandon basicly , yes , think of kubuntu.org repos as pre-backports ;) 11:25 Tonio_ Riddell: is mez still responsible for the backports ? 11:25 kmon then can I suggest a kaffeine package in kubuntu.org? 11:25 Riddell Tonio_: yes, and jdong, but at tech board just now other people said they'd sign up to it 11:25 Lure kmon: I think we need more a wiki page for latest-and-greatest releases so that not 5 people package kopete 11:26 kmon Lure: that's my main point 11:26 Hobbsee Lure: hehe. i think i only counted 4 11:26 Riddell kmon: kaffeine always has bugs in its releases 11:26 Lure but when package is ready, Riddell can put it on kubuntu.org 11:26 Tonio_ Riddell: would be interesting to have one of the backports maintainers here for next meetings, to get technical informations, and policy informations too 11:27 imbrandon Lure: kmon , thats some of what nixternal linuxmonkey and me are trying to do with the current wiki and buntudot.org ( orginise the kubuntu related stuff ) 11:27 Hobbsee also, are these packages to go on kubuntu.org going to be put thru the same QA as the stuff to go into the repos? 11:27 Riddell Tonio_: policy is any package in edgy archive that compiles in dapper can be backported I think 11:27 Lure Tonio_: there will be wiki howto for backports (done by siretart) 11:27 Tonio_ Riddell: no modifications allowed I presume ? 11:27 Lure Tonio_: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ReinhardTartler/BackportsProposal is what was discussed today on TB 11:28 Tonio_ Lure: thanks ;) I missed this TB..... 11:28 Riddell Tonio_: yes (although looking at tech board discussion that may change in limited cases) 11:28 Riddell Hobbsee: that's why I don't want lots of packages on there 11:28 Tonio_ okay 11:28 Hobbsee mmm ok 11:29 Riddell Hobbsee: does this cover your next agenda item too? 11:29 Hobbsee Riddell: i think so 11:29 Riddell any more questions on the topic? 11:29 Riddell kmon: your item, wiki pages 11:29 kmon ok, me again === ..[topic/#ubuntu-meeting:Ubugtu] : Current meeting: Kubuntu | Calendar: http://fridge.ubuntu.com/event | Logs: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MeetingLogs/ | 07 Jun 13:30 UTC: Xubuntu | 07 Jun 20:00 UTC: Edubuntu | 08 Jun 08:00 UTC: Ubuntu Development Team | 14 Jun 12:00 UTC: Edubuntu | 14 Jun 13:30 UTC: Xubuntu 11:29 kmon the wiki is messy === Hobbsee added to the documentation last night :P 11:30 kmon kubuntu wiki page is full of pages about everything 11:30 kmon helping users, packaging, testing 11:30 imbrandon kmon , thats some of what nixternal linuxmonkey and me are trying to do with the current wiki and buntudot.org ( make the kubuntu related stuff pretty ) 11:30 imbrandon instead of mixed with ubuntu that gets confusing 11:30 imbrandon to new users 11:30 linuxmonkey :) 11:31 kmon imbrandon: interesting 11:31 Riddell kmon: how would you like the "Kubuntu" page to be? 11:31 imbrandon yes the current wiki needs cleaned up and i do think there should be a kubuntu-wiki team === Hobbsee is wary of splitting the two wiki sites - as a lot of the pages are not DM specific 11:31 linuxmonkey Alot of stuff in wiki is version specific, what I think we want to do is take all the kubuntu stuff and make it simple for users to find/use 11:31 kmon More like ubuntu front page === nixternal is available for kubuntu-wiki team help...as well as kubuntu documentation if needed 11:32 Hobbsee imbrandon: you've misspelled cannonical. 11:32 nixternal lol 11:32 kmon more organised 11:32 imbrandon whoops , i'll fix it after the meeting 11:32 Riddell sounds like we have a number of people interested in helping :) === linuxmonkey says I second that. 11:32 Hobbsee imbrandon: in fact, just generally proofread it - i saw two errors in one line :P === goldenear can also help === jaims [n=jaims@61.Red-80-33-128.staticIP.rima-tde.net] has left #ubuntu-meeting ["Konversation] 11:33 imbrandon there is only one line currently ;) 11:33 Lure in general it would be good to separate User stuff from Community/Developers stuff 11:33 kmon Lure: yes 11:33 nixternal i have aided with documentation in the form of reviews, articles, and how-to's for various sites over the past years...writing is a hobby and somethine i enjoy..only tech writing though ;) 11:34 linuxmonkey even if there are parts of the wiki that are not DM specific, the sections that do have DM specific stuff should be kept seperate as users get confused 11:34 Lure and inside that have version specific stuff that can get easily hidden (not linked) when new release is out 11:34 Riddell DM? 11:34 Hobbsee Riddell: display manager, i think 11:34 linuxmonkey my bad 11:34 linuxmonkey yea 11:34 kmon it should be DE :P 11:35 goldenear Also it may be nice to organize the pages function of the user skill (eg beginer pages, advanced user pages, administrator pages, dev pages) 11:35 linuxmonkey meaning KDE/Gnome etc.. 11:35 Riddell kmon, imbrandon, nixternal, linuxmonkey and goldenear should chat about this when they can and work out how to tidy the wiki pages === cassidy [n=cassidy@f1-pc174.ulb.ac.be] has joined #ubuntu-meeting 11:35 Riddell there's lots of things on there that are now obsolete or need updating 11:35 Lure can somebody write a spec what should be done - otherwise it will be hard to allign the efforts of many people... 11:35 kmon Riddell: yes 11:35 Hobbsee as is the case with a lof of wiki pages, of course 11:35 imbrandon sure Lure 11:35 toma but i would not like to see a split to buntudot.org that would not help any user 11:35 Riddell I think it just needs going over all the pages and working out which ones need to be linked from the Kubuntu page and in what sane order === nixternal is available all the time...except during sleep of course 11:36 kmon and maybe talk to the ubuntu documentation team and ask for help 11:36 imbrandon toma no not split thats a whole diffrent ball game 11:36 toma oki 11:37 Riddell shall we move on? 11:37 Riddell Hobbsee: your item 11:37 imbrandon more clean up the current wiki and make sure there is kubuntu instructions for everything, as currently there is mostly only gnome specific stuff and screen shots etc === Hobbsee is surprised that she has an item 11:37 linuxmonkey lol 11:37 Hobbsee Is it possible to get upload space or something on kubuntu.org? eg, kubuntu.org/people/~hobbsee? Would it be useful? Who would we give it to? 11:37 Hobbsee although i heard later that that's cannonical people only... === linuxmonkey hands Hobbsee a pillow, there's your item 11:38 Riddell short anwer is no, canonical doesn't give out server space to non-employees 11:38 Lure I heard that new LP will have private repos - but not sure for whom... 11:38 Hobbsee is there some sort of equivalent place that we can upload to, or just use REVU, and say "do not review"? 11:38 Riddell and people.ubuntu.com is badly named, it was named before ubuntu was public 11:38 Riddell however if you read daniel silverstone's interview on behindubuntu you'll see they're planning personal archives on launchpad 11:39 Riddell so you can upload your source packages and they'll get compiled (at low priority) and put into your personal archive 11:39 kmon then we need another kde employeed :P 11:39 toma ok 11:39 imbrandon Hobbsee: for the time being i can give you server space on my server and a shell account if thats what your needing atm === Lure has abused Tonio_'s repos... ;-) 11:39 kmon s/kde/kde dev === pips1 [n=philipp_@44.9.62.81.cust.bluewin.ch] has left #ubuntu-meeting [] 11:39 Hobbsee hehe, cool 11:39 Tonio_ Lure: hehe 11:39 Riddell also the supermirror may one day actually happen and at that time you can push your bzr source archives onto it 11:40 imbrandon nice 11:40 Hobbsee cool, okay 11:40 toma certificate 11:40 imbrandon that would be good considering then they could be compiled for more than i386 or whatever is used by the dev 11:40 imbrandon like sf.net compilefarm === crimsun [i=crimsun@pdpc/supporter/silver/crimsun] has left #ubuntu-meeting ["presentation"] 11:40 Hobbsee certificate...mmm...please someone fix it... 11:40 Riddell in the mean time ask around and probably somebody can give you an account on their server 11:41 Hobbsee Riddell: okay 11:41 Riddell I put in a request to sysadmin to fix the certificate 11:41 Riddell no reply yet 11:41 imbrandon Hobbsee: after the meeting pm me and i'll set ya up 11:41 Hobbsee Riddell: excellent! 11:41 Hobbsee my upload limit is pretty slow anywya, but thanks 11:41 Riddell you could try very gently asking one of the sysadmins but I suspect it's low priority for them 11:41 Hobbsee well yeah 11:41 Lure Riddell: I doubt it will be easy fix - our IT has same problems with certificates ;-) 11:42 Riddell "now that we're between releases" releases don't really affect it 11:42 Riddell toma: your item 11:42 toma anyone using keytouch? I installed it a couple of days ago and was impressed. It just works. (see my blog) Sime approached me and mentioned that it could go into guidance when I adjust it. I wanted to know your opinions 11:42 Riddell what is it? 11:42 toma i contacted upstream and he is very helpfull 11:43 kmon toma: can you give a link to the blog? 11:43 toma it is an app to make your multi media keys work 11:43 imbrandon yes i've used / using keytouch right now, its a very nice piece of soft 11:43 imbrandon very clean 11:43 Tonio_ toma: very interesting :) 11:43 Riddell how does it work? 11:43 linuxmonkey url? cause i'll want to get that 11:43 toma kmon: http://www.omat.nl/drupal/?q=node/79 11:43 kmon toma: oh, nevermind. I remeber reading that on the planet 11:43 Riddell it may be interesting for https://wiki.kubuntu.org/KubuntuLaptopButtons 11:44 toma Riddell: i believe it works with a kernel module and a daemon, but i have to look into that. Not sure about the module 11:44 imbrandon the nice thing about it is keyboards that arent supported out of the box are trivial to add 11:44 Lure Riddell: can be, but we want something more hardcoded for Ubuntu laptop keycodes 11:44 toma it has a separate gui, so easily fits in guidance. 11:44 Riddell toma: I'll take a look at it and we'll consider it at the Paris summit for that spec 11:44 toma imbrandon: indeed 11:45 toma making unsupported keyboards work is easy 11:45 linuxmonkey thats a good thing 11:45 Lure Riddell: it more fixes the problem of X keyboard layouts not being updated fast enough 11:45 Riddell kernel module sounds a bit scary though 11:45 pygi Riddell, if anybody is interested in implementing that Guidance for Grub, I am willing to provide assistance 11:45 pygi (me is sorry for interupting) 11:46 Riddell toma: your item again 11:46 toma Riddell: ok. The current kde interface is bad imho. and if you have an unsupported kayboard, you have to make your own mapping somewhere in X. 11:46 Tonio_ toma: as long as the kernel recognises the keys, which doesn't work on my vaio.... 11:46 toma that is scary ;-) 11:46 toma Tonio_: not sure. === Riddell puts Tonio_ down for the vaio testing team 11:47 Tonio_ Riddell: I was thinking to do it :) I bought it yesterday, so gimme a moment plz ;) 11:47 toma Tonio_: we need to check later, ok? 11:47 Tonio_ toma: sure ;) 11:47 Lure Tonio_: your vaio should be suppported by hotkey-setup 11:47 toma my next item was pretty good described in the wiki. 11:47 Lure and kernel driver 11:47 toma i really have had it with all those mediaplayers 11:48 Riddell "Instead of having totem/xine/codeine/kmplayer & kaffeine" === lucas [n=lucas@d213-103-78-234.cust.tele2.fr] has joined #ubuntu-meeting 11:48 toma why don't we ship 1 which works 11:48 toma and the rest optional 11:48 Tonio_ Lure: I use fsfn + sonypi but we'll discuss this later :) 11:48 imbrandon afaik kaffeine is the only kubuntu default 11:48 Riddell because none work in all situations? 11:48 Riddell imbrandon: we ship kaffeine, kmplayer and amarok 11:48 Riddell if we removed amarok we'd be lynched 11:48 toma because its confusing imho 11:48 Hobbsee Riddell: sure about kmplayer? 11:49 imbrandon what does kmplayer do that kaffeine dosent ? 11:49 Riddell and kmplayer is plugin only, which we added because kaffeine plugin is unstable 11:49 imbrandon and kmplay i dont think is dafualt === Hobbsee doesnt seem to have kmplayer in her kmenu 11:49 imbrandon ahh 11:49 Lure imbrandon: does not crash konqueror 11:49 Hobbsee oh 11:49 Riddell we don't install the kmplayer app by default 11:49 Tonio_ Riddell: I would vote for kmplayer only since it's only default is the UI which is in the work actually === imbrandon always installs mozilla-mplayer right away anyhow 11:49 toma besides deciding which app, would we go with that scenario? 11:49 goldenear I'm currently with koos on the successor of kmplayer named oskar 11:50 Riddell toma: which scenario? 11:50 Tonio_ toma: I personnaly don't like audio/video players 11:50 Riddell goldenear: what's that all about? 11:50 Tonio_ I like when they are separate 11:50 toma Riddell: ship one which works 11:50 Tonio_ toma: since the needs are different between audio and video 11:50 Riddell toma: sure, when you make one that works 11:50 Lure Tonio_: +1 11:50 linuxmonkey Tonio_: your like me I run XMMS for audio and something else for video 11:50 imbrandon or ship the best one and fix it ;) 11:51 kmon Tonio_: and amarok is the best audio app out there 11:51 toma we can work closely with upstream to make it do what we want 11:51 goldenear oskar will be the nex version of kmplayer... it's intented to have all the power of kmplayer (and the nice embedded feature) but also a much better UI for the standalone player 11:51 Tonio_ toma: but I agree it is not very nice to ship a standalone player and another for the konqueror part......... 11:51 Tonio_ this should be one only application === imbrandon agrees with Tonio_ 11:51 Riddell goldenear: that sounds lovely 11:51 Lure Tonio_: can we configure kaffeine to use kmplayer kpart ;-) 11:51 toma Tonio_: yes, and one for audio and one for video is of course fine 11:52 Tonio_ the problem is that kaffeine-part may never work correctly 11:52 goldenear Also koos would need some help from an experienced kde dev 11:52 toma goldenear: why? he is one 11:52 claydoh I like kmplayer, as its plugin works for konq, for one thing 11:52 Riddell koos is an experienced kde dev! 11:53 Riddell interesting question for edgy will be the xine/gstreamer debate again 11:53 Tonio_ since according to upstream the crash is due to konqueror, so he doesn't want to go the way kmplayer does (playing in a separate xsession and binding the video output to the konqueror window) 11:53 goldenear but he would need help to work on the "cosmetic" on the UI 11:53 toma goldenear: did he say that? 11:53 goldenear (I'm speaking about kmplayer) 11:54 goldenear Yes, I had a discussion with koos on the irc 11:54 Lure Tonio_: but kmplayer's way is just better imho anyhow 11:54 goldenear we spoke about some improvement needed for the kmplayer standalone player 11:54 Tonio_ Lure: I agree, but kaffeine's upstream doesn't want to make it work that way........ 11:54 goldenear also we chose a new name for the project: oskar 11:55 Riddell kmplayer does get very confusing 11:55 Riddell as a name 11:55 Tonio_ Lure: btw, kaffeine is now becoming a mess with those audio features that dupplicate amarok/konqueror/kaudiocreator 11:55 goldenear kmplayer sounds too much like a mplayer frontend only. (kmplayer can also use xine, gstreamer... and soon phonon :) ) 11:55 Riddell goldenear: what is Koos' IRC nick? 11:55 Tonio_ Riddell: the name is gonna change to oskar 11:55 goldenear Riddell: koos 11:55 imbrandon yea it would be nice to look at just oskar for edgy 11:55 Riddell don't think I've seen him on IRC 11:56 toma me neither 11:56 Tonio_ imbrandon: I would agree with this approach 11:56 linuxmonkey yeah imbrandon i agree with that too 11:56 toma ++ 11:56 Lure ++ 11:56 goldenear here is a mockup for oskar I've done : http://goldenear.online.fr/oskar/oskar_mockup.jpg 11:56 imbrandon well oskar ++ amarok ;) 11:57 Riddell if oskar is ready in time for edgy it sounds like a good candidate replacement for kaffeine 11:57 Tonio_ Riddell: true ;) 11:57 goldenear also the playlist an the left is ugly (but it's how it currently looks) 11:57 toma else kmplayer? 11:57 Riddell goldenear: arg! multiple level trees! 11:57 Hobbsee Riddell: dont you just love them? *ducks* 11:57 goldenear Riddell: the playlist is ugly and will be change... 11:57 Tonio_ Riddell: yes, the UI really needs polishing :) 11:58 goldenear this is juste a mockup made from different screenshots 11:58 Riddell maybe we can get ellen to come up with good interface at Paris 11:58 toma yes 11:58 toma good idea 11:58 Riddell ok, I'll make a spec for that and we'll see what comes of it 11:58 Tonio_ Riddell: kaffeine could give ideas ! it's UI is really nice (the problem is behind ^^) 11:58 imbrandon whom is the main dev on amarok ? 11:58 toma Riddell: else i can ask Tina to help us 11:58 kmon talking about paris... are the kde people invited to go to paris involved in writting specs now 11:59 goldenear If somebody could work with koos on the interface (especialy for adding the left sidebar) it would be great :) 11:59 Riddell kmon: I'll send out an e-mail to them === Beineri [n=Beineri@kde/binner] has left #ubuntu-meeting ["CARRIER] 11:59 kmon Riddell: their responses could be a nice inclusion in next ubuntu newsletter ;) 11:59 Riddell so, talking of specs, the ones I have so far are listed at https://launchpad.net/people/jr/+specs 12:00 Riddell all the "Undefined" ones 12:00 Riddell please add any comments you have to their wiki pages 12:00 Riddell and did everyone read the first ubuntu newsletter? === Hobbsee did. another mailing list 12:01 Hobbsee what was in it? === kmon did 12:01 imbrandon what mailing list ? 12:01 Riddell ubuntu-news 12:01 Lure Hobbsee: Kubuntu section ;-) 12:01 imbrandon i get 3k messages a day so i WILL read it but not as of yet 12:01 Hobbsee Lure: i remember that much - just not what was in it :P 12:01 goldenear I would also add Kubuntu ACPI 12:01 nixternal imbrandon...bugs? 12:01 Riddell goldenear: covered by laptop-buttons and power-management 12:02 Lure Hobbsee: just release announcement and paris KDE invited devell 12:02 Hobbsee oh that's right... 12:02 Riddell if you have items for the next newsletter please add them to the wiki page 12:02 Riddell ok, do we have any member candidates here? 12:02 goldenear Edgy would need good ACPI support not only for laptops...
