03:10 rraphink (I mean vs. Ubuntu in general) 03:10 Hobbsee with the new user config tool, mentioned in your wiki page, may i mention that the way amarok handles mp3 support is *very* clever. right now, it's broken, but i have a fix that i'm going to test soon on my hard drive. 03:10 nixternal i support mainly kubuntu since all i have really used is kde for years...i am helping jjesse with all of the kubuntu documentation 03:10 rraphink ok 03:11 nixternal i am picking up the packaging aspect with the help of Hobbsee and imbrandon === imbrandon notes for everyone nixternal is the founder of the Chicago LoCo team and active in the Bug Squad / Laptop Testing / Documentation and IRC 03:11 nixternal im gettin' ready to go back to school to knock the programming rust off, since i decided to change fields about 10 years ago and quit programming 03:11 gnomefreak and marketing === Hobbsee looks. specs are *way* too high for karma! 03:11 mindspin and he is one of the few kubuntu guys in the marketing team 03:12 nixternal oooh..gnomefreak, if jenda seen i introduced myself and didn't say i was part of the marketing team i would never hear the end of it thanks 03:12 Riddell we have a marketing team?

03:15 Riddell Hobbsee suggested we go with an artwork update 03:15 nixternal after the meeting of course 03:15 Hobbsee seeing as you've just said that? 03:15 nixternal thank you everyone 03:15 kwwii ok, really quickly: === omeow wonders if someone ever got rejected. 03:15 Riddell omeow: yes 03:15 Hobbsee kwwii: i like the current usplash :P 03:15 kwwii until now we have specs which say that we are replacing the usplash, KDM, Desktop splash and Wallpaper. 03:15 imbrandon omeow, yes 03:15 Hobbsee omeow: yeah, last meeting, actually === Mithrandir [n=tfheen@c5100BC63.inet.catch.no] has joined #ubuntu-meeting 03:16 nixternal yes omeow, tis why i waited a while 03:16 Hobbsee hi Mithrandir 03:16 kwwii I think we should also think about changing the app-start page for konqi as well as the help center. 03:16 rraphink Hobbsee: I think the current usplash is not kwwii's 03:16 Hobbsee ah 03:16 Mithrandir hi again, Hobbsee 03:16 Hobbsee whoever's it is === j_ack [n=nico@p508DA2C3.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #ubuntu-meeting 03:16 kwwii Hobbsee: no, it is mine 03:16 Hobbsee ah :) 03:16 rraphink kwwii: like my wallpaper ? :)= === Hobbsee only installed edgy today - give her a break! 03:16 Riddell kwwii: my slight concern with that is we'd be diverging from the KDE stuff a bit 03:16 kwwii ahhh, actually I haven't checked edgy yet === freeflying [n=freeflyi@ubuntu/member/freeflying] has joined #ubuntu-meeting 03:17 kwwii Riddell: so let's change the KDE stuff too 03:17 imbrandon and the default window deco , crystal is ugly imo ;) 03:17 Riddell kwwii: also the app-start page for konqi should in theory be mirrored in kontact, kmail, kcontrol, akgregator and kbabel 03:17 kwwii imbrandon: good point, I have an update for that too 03:17 kwwii Riddell: yepp, I know 03:17 allee imbrandon: what's ugly is up to the artits to decide ;) 03:17 kwwii we would need to do them all 03:17 imbrandon allee, yea ;) 03:17 kwwii that is why I am asking here instead of just barging ahead as normal 03:18 allee imbrandon: and we tell them if it's usable and acceptable ;) 03:18 Hobbsee imbrandon: i didnt think crystal was the current window deco, was it? i thought that was polyester 03:18 kwwii so what does everyone think about that? 03:18 imbrandon Riddell, whats wrong with diverging form kde as far as artwork ( k-d-s ) ? === Hobbsee grabs a drink, and tries to make sense of all this. 03:18 imbrandon Hobbsee, not in edgy 03:18 imbrandon leaste not yet === kozz [i=kozz@213.66.184.18] has joined #ubuntu-meeting 03:19 allee kwwii: consistent artwork is good to have 03:19 Riddell imbrandon: I've always positioned kubuntu a being close to KDE from an artwork view 03:19 Riddell but if kwwii can come up with some rocking design then lets do it 03:19 imbrandon allee, consistant with whom though, if we are taketing switchovers from windows or kde ? 03:19 allee kwwii: but IMHO comon icons/themes first, then app specific stuff === gnomefreak likes the wallpaper (simple and nice) in edgy kubuntu 03:19 kwwii http://bootsplash.org/snapshot3.png shows my desktop with the changes I have made so far 03:20 kwwii I will still update the buttons 03:20 allee imbrandon: consistent as 'used in Kubuntu' 03:20 nixternal heh, and it's purple 03:20 Hobbsee kwwii: would you be talking a colour change, etc, or changing the way the buttons are located? 03:20 imbrandon allee, ahh yes 03:20 Riddell kwwii: which buttons 03:20 Hobbsee kwwii: pretty :) 03:20 Riddell ? 03:20 imbrandon allee, i agree totaly but i do think the artwork for kubutu shouldent be a clone of every other kde setup out there , i'm not saying the FUNCTION just the artwork 03:20 allee kwwii: brown folder icons? 03:21 Riddell I think we're onto a winner with the purple 03:21 kwwii Hobbsee: check that screenshot and you'll see that I changed the gradients used in the titlebar, the colors, and the window buttons in the titlebar need new pixmaps, as those do not fit 03:21 Hobbsee :) 03:21 imbrandon Riddell, the min max close 03:21 [Nirvana] kubuntu edgy is purple? === nixternal admits that is a 'nice' shade of purple kwwii 03:21 kwwii imbrandon: exactly 03:21 Hobbsee kwwii: right, okay 03:21 Hobbsee [Nirvana] : yes 03:21 Hobbsee kwwii: i'm not great on artwork stuff :) 03:21 kwwii :-) 03:21 Tonio_ I'm not a fan of purple, but that's probably interesting since this color isn't widely used 03:22 Hobbsee Tonio_: next time suggest pink, mmm kay? 03:22 Hobbsee :P 03:22 nixternal just on gentoo 03:22 Tonio_ and since it is kwwii, I'm of course self confident is the result === jeekl [n=crz@h169n1c1o1104.bredband.skanova.com] has joined #ubuntu-meeting 03:22 kwwii the good thing is, if I do it right, we could change the purple to blue pretty quickly if things don't work out well 03:22 Tonio_ nixternal: at least it is more original than blue.... 03:22 Tonio_ ;) 03:22 mindspin the brown folders look stragnge to me 03:22 nixternal oh i totally agree 03:22 gnomefreak while were ont her topic is there any way to intergrate a "themes changer" so new users can do it without compiling themes? 03:22 nixternal i actually like it...i said as long as it wasn't 'barney purple' 03:22 [Nirvana] kinda reminds me of the kubuntu amsn theme 03:22 Hobbsee kwwii: my personal opinion: assuming we're discussing colours, etc, i'm fine with it changing to be whatever - but we probably shouldnt change from the kde defaults, unless we have a good reason to 03:22 imbrandon yea the brown does look a bit strange against the purple 03:23 kwwii Hobbsee: I totally agree 03:23 Hobbsee gnomefreak: it's there, in system settings. but system settings is a confusing mess. 03:23 gnomefreak ah ok 03:23 omeow Is the kicker going to stay that size by default too? 03:23 Hobbsee kwwii: cool :) in fact, in one of my points i'm wanting to revert a couple of changes 03:23 allee Tonio_: that purple is not used often may have a reason that is not originality 03:23 kwwii the brown icons are just a test I did when I made that screenshot 03:23 Riddell omeow: no 03:23 omeow Ok, good. :) 03:23 kwwii Hobbsee: like what? 03:23 imbrandon Hobbsee, we have a good reason , we;re not kde ;) i do think the artwork for kubutu shouldent be a clone of every other kde setup out there , i'm not saying the FUNCTION just the artwork 03:24 Hobbsee kwwii: the change to konq that i want to make? 03:24 Hobbsee imbrandon: yeah, exactly 03:24 [Nirvana] um, this may sound silly, but why is the default k menu the K instead of the kubuntu logo? 03:24 kwwii Hobbsee: if we change the kde stuff as well, and simply use a few different pics for kubuntu that is pretty much the same 03:25 Hobbsee kwwii: cool :) 03:25 omeow I don't like the switch user, lock session and log out buttons. 03:25 Riddell [Nirvana] : because we don't want to hide our KDE-ness 03:25 imbrandon [Nirvana] , becosue kwwii hasent designed us a uber leet kubuntu button ;) 03:25 allee imbrandon: we should take the best from KDE and not preplace it just because we want to be different 03:25 omeow The ones in dapper are nice because they each have a different colour. Making it easy to distinguish. 03:25 [Nirvana] I saw one around 03:25 [Nirvana] easyubuntu used to be able to change it to the kubuntu logo === nixternal wants to see the 'reinhardt' style come back 03:25 kwwii we could make a crystal kubuntu logo for use there if there is interest === Hobbsee reads back to see what kwwii is actually wanting approval over - to play with colours and see what looks good, right? 03:26 allee imbrandon: and if something is not that good, we should try better and give back so next time it's in KDE 03:26 imbrandon allee, right, but look at ubuntu branding , they have the logo on the application menu etc i think we should do some of the same 03:26 freeflying kwwii: nice, some icons like osx's :) 03:26 kwwii oh, and the spinner in konqueror should be improved 03:26 Riddell Hobbsee: it was the new about:konq and help centre graphics 03:26 kwwii freeflying: that is the oxygen set we are working on 03:26 mindspin I agree with omeow concerning the switch user etc. buttons 03:27 Riddell kwwii: that's rendered from a 3d model, I'd need to dig up the guy who did it 03:27 Hobbsee Riddell: right, that's what i thought. we've just gone veering off somehow. 03:27 mindspin colours would be nice 03:27 Hobbsee +1 mindspin 03:27 Riddell Hobbsee: that happens with artwork 03:27 Hobbsee Riddell: hehe, true. 03:27 imbrandon ;) 03:28 kwwii well, the dapper release was kinda quick, as I started during the UI sprint === Hobbsee just learned a new way to get back to the first konq screen. nice! 03:29 Riddell kwwii: so looking good, new about:konq and help centre should be good too 03:29 Riddell shall we move on? 03:29 imbrandon yup 03:29 kwwii yepp 03:29 Riddell no jjesse, tsk 03:29 Hobbsee +1 to moving on 03:29 Hobbsee Riddell: yeah, he was trying to make it === allee agrees with Hobbsee 03:29 Riddell we should go to the agenda then http://wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/Meetings 03:29 Riddell [Nirvana] : you're first 03:29 Hobbsee Riddell: who's chairing? i added a lot to the agenda :P 03:30 [Nirvana] whoops sorry 03:30 imbrandon [Nirvana] , your css stuff 03:30 [Nirvana] trying 03:30 [Nirvana] msgs aren't being sent 03:30 Riddell we can read you here, please introduce it 03:30 [Nirvana] So yeah, I made like 3-4 css changes to the kubuntu page 03:31 Riddell [Nirvana] : which one? 03:31 Hobbsee [Nirvana] : link to it? 03:31 seaLne is there a working version of http://halovids.buildyourforum.com/x/test.html somewhere? 03:31 Hobbsee the pastebin link is dead too. 03:31 imbrandon while we're waiting for [Nirvana] i think what he is talking aobut can be filed against website-bugs and have the website team change the template if Riddell or whome ever agrees 03:31 [Nirvana] change buildyourforum to globalnetworld 03:31 [Nirvana] could be ^ 03:32 [Nirvana] it's a cross, because it's about kubuntu and should use kubuntu colours, but is about the release (http://us.releases.ubuntu.com/releases/kubuntu/6.06/ ) page 03:32 seaLne yep 03:32 Riddell http://halovids.globalnetworld.com/x/test.html 03:32 Riddell [Nirvana] : the icons needs crystalised :) 03:32 [Nirvana] I didn't change any icons 03:32 Riddell imbrandon: this isn't the website, it's managed quite differently 03:33 [Nirvana] just css 03:33 imbrandon crystal or oxygen ;) 03:33 nixternal Riddell: i can make a brief statement about kubuntu docs, however i don't know how detailed jjesse was planning 03:33 Riddell Kamion: how easy is it to have different CSS and icons for the Kubuntu pages on cdimage? 03:34 Hobbsee that page is quite badly laid out for new users - probably needs a section on what .manifest and .torrent, etc, are 03:34 imbrandon Riddell, releases no cdimage right ? cdimage is old i think 03:34 Hobbsee but anyway, that's not a kubuntu issue 03:34 Riddell imbrandon: cdimage is daily, releases is final things, they both come from the same teamplates 03:34 imbrandon ahh 03:35 Riddell [Nirvana] : I've no idea how easy this is, I'll talk to Kamion when he's around and find out, if it's not hard I'll make the changes 03:35 [Nirvana] what I did was go to the release page (where you download the iso) and saved it with firefox, then open uo nvu and change some css, I didn't touch any text/icons or anything 03:35 [Nirvana] the added css is in the source underneath the @imports 03:36 kwwii guess we should use our own icons for that page too, or? 03:36 Riddell kwwii: ideally yes 03:36 Riddell but it's not the most important thing in the world, I'll only do it if it's easy 03:36 Hobbsee [Nirvana] : the "comment" on your next agenda item is this? Burning a VCD from AVI files is even trickier. In very broad strokes, youll need to install K3b, a CD burning program, and a package called VCDimager, and tell K3b where its located. Youll also need a command-line program called FFmpeg to convert AVI files to MPG, which is the format that K3b uses. Sounds complicated? It is, but its doable. 03:36 kwwii then let's dig those up from crystal, if it is technically possible 03:36 Hobbsee [Nirvana] : would be good if you'd listed which bit you wanted to talk about in the agenda, FYI 03:38 Kamion Riddell: not particularly hard, file a bug on /products/ubuntu-cdimage with what you want changed 03:38 Riddell Kamion: ok, cool 03:38 Kamion Riddell: would prefer not massively different CSS === claydoh [n=clay@bb-66-63-100-239.gwi.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting 03:38 Kamion at the moment I just use that from the Ubuntu website; if I can just use that from the Kubuntu website, that's cool 03:38 allee [Nirvana] : as you're an CSS expert. Check kubuntu wiki css why the fonts are different from default font size used in kubuntu 03:39 Kamion don't want to get into maintaining different CSS locally though === Nirvana [n=marco@CPE0080c8292db5-CM000f9f5158ce.cpe.net.cable.rogers.com] has joined #ubuntu-meeting 03:39 Kamion Hobbsee: ditto for you, bugs welcome 03:40 Hobbsee Kamion: hehe. just watch me assign the entire archive to you :P 03:40 imbrandon lol 03:40 Riddell welcome back Nirvana, you have another agenda idem 03:40 Nirvana weird lagged out... 03:40 Kamion I can reject just as quickly as anyone else :P 03:40 nixternal note weird, but typical 03:40 Nirvana ahh 03:40 nixternal s/note/not 03:40 nixternal 03:40 Nirvana OK, 03:40 Riddell Nirvana: Kamion says it should be possible to get a different stylesheet used for those kubuntu pages so that should be doable 03:41 Nirvana comment: "As an addendum, I tried sharing the printer using Samba, but this task is really more difficult than it should be. Nobody should have to edit configuration files or to scour the mailing lists simply to share a printer on the network." 03:41 Kamion as long as it's maintained somewhere other than cdimage === Sho_ [i=ehs1@konversation/developer/hein] has joined #ubuntu-meeting 03:41 Hobbsee hi Sho_! 03:41 Sho_ moin 03:41 Hobbsee Sho_: welcome to the kubuntu meeting :) 03:41 Riddell Nirvana: we have a spec to turn on easy printer sharing, I don't know what's required to get that working with samba 03:42 Nirvana ahh, so deferred? or should I continue with what he said? 03:42 imbrandon moins Sho_ , Kamion like on kubuntu.org or some such and just linked from the html is cdimage ? sounds like a good plan 03:42 Riddell Nirvana: does he say what needs done? 03:42 Nirvana kinda 03:42 Nirvana comment: I did try a number of solutions, but so far, no luck. This REALLY should be a matter of right-clicking the printer and opening up a share menu. Unfortunately, this is one of those areas that still needs improvement in making this distro even more user-friendly. Jerome, maybe this is something you can get intoa simple GUI method of sharing a printer on an Ubuntu machine? 03:43 Kamion I've changed the CSS on http://releases.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/dapper/ to be http://www.kubuntu.org/ubuntu.css; does that look better now? (you might have to reload a few times to catch a mirror that's updated) 03:43 Kamion obviously the icons still need to be done 03:43 Nirvana beautiful 03:43 Nirvana except === GNAM [n=GNAM@host199-235.pool8252.interbusiness.it] has joined #ubuntu-meeting === digitalmouse [n=jimm@p5481E19E.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting 03:44 Nirvana the cd downloads don't have a border bottom of 100% that's blue, they're just links 03:44 digitalmouse greetings programs! just here to listen in on the next meeting... (loggin in case I need to step out) 03:44 Riddell Kamion: still looks brown to me 03:44 digitalmouse logging* 03:44 Kamion Riddell: keep reloading 03:44 Nirvana wait... it just turned brown when I refreshed 03:44 Riddell oh, it'll need to sync to all the servers of course 03:44 seaLne yeah it is working 03:45 Kamion Nirvana: the download list is just apache's fancy directory listing, I can't easily change that 03:45 Nirvana I figured 03:45 Nirvana but I didn't mean that 03:46 seaLne you ment the Desktop CD and Alternate install CD section headers? 03:46 Riddell hmm, it's missing some underlines on the headers 03:46 Kamion oh, that's CSS for
