00:09 pdurbin melodie: so, you're part of the Ubuntu Openbox Remix project?
00:10 pdurbin I think this is the thread you linked to: OBUbuntu RC7 - http://beta.linuxvillage.net/index.php/topic,198.0.html
00:11 melodie pdurbin I am leading this project
00:11 melodie as you have created crimsonfu
00:12 melodie the other buddies at the LinuxVillage have done the same with Debian testing. We all use the same basis, and about the same main ingredients
00:13 * pdurbin tries to translate the linuxvillage about page from french to english: http://translate.google.com/translate?sl=auto&tl=en&js=n&prev=_t&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&eotf=1&u=http%3A%2F%2Flinuxvillage.org
00:14 melodie if you wish there are pages in English as well
00:18 pdurbin ironcamel: you're a big fan of openbox, if memory serves. I still haven't tried it
00:21 ironcamel pdurbin: yeah, i'm running it right now
00:21 ironcamel apt-get install openbox; openbox --replace
00:25 melodie hi
00:26 melodie ironcamel did you hear about openbox-menu and "obsession" ?
00:26 melodie (o b session)
00:39 ironcamel melodie: i have not. should i try those?
00:39 melodie yes
00:39 melodie moment plse
00:40 melodie do you use Debian, or Ubuntu ?
00:41 melodie I have done a ppa for Ubuntu, put aside a package for Debian, however obssion needs to be compiled, which I did for Ubuntu and for Debian (but did not package yet)
00:42 melodie sources here: http://code.google.com/p/mimarchlinux
02:24 ironcamel melodie: i am running arch
02:25 ironcamel and looks like arch has both of those in AUR, it's community based repo
02:35 melodie ironcamel yes
02:35 melodie I run Arch too and so does mimas
02:36 melodie you might want to use the aur pkgbuild, as the community repos perhaps is not up to date
02:36 ironcamel i'm not sure what that means :)
02:37 melodie then you will need to configure your menu.xml file and your autostart file in .config/openbox
02:37 ironcamel i'm just doing packer -S openbox-menu
02:37 melodie ironcamel do you use yaourt ?
02:37 ironcamel i user packer
02:37 ironcamel which is an alternative to yaourt
02:37 melodie I don't know packer, does it access the aur repos ?
02:37 ironcamel yes
02:37 melodie then if you can get the aur version it is more up to date
02:38 ironcamel i am installing from aur
02:38 ironcamel ok, done
02:38 ironcamel now what do i do with openbox-menu?
02:38 melodie I can give you my menu.lst third line if you want and my autostart file line to match it
02:38 ironcamel sure :)
02:38 melodie I give the lines to you and openbox-menu will work
02:39 ironcamel where does menu.lst go?
02:39 ironcamel i just have a menu.xml
02:39 ironcamel in ~/.config/openbox
02:39 melodie <menu id="desktop-app" label="Applications" execute=" cat ~/.cache/menu.xml" />
02:39 melodie this is the third line here
02:39 melodie and this third line is just after:
02:40 melodie <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
02:40 melodie <openbox_menu xmlns="http://openbox.org/3.4/menu">
02:40 melodie one of the first lines in my autostart file, to match the menu.xml line:
02:40 melodie openbox-menu -o menu.xml -p -g -x -t "sakura -e" lxde-applications.menu &
02:41 ironcamel that looks scary
02:41 melodie ironcamel I mean menu.xml, sorry
02:41 ironcamel do i need sakura?
02:41 melodie no
02:41 melodie you can put your's instead
02:41 melodie urxvt, or whatever console you use
02:41 melodie -p is for persistant mode : dynamic
02:42 ironcamel i use gnome-terminal
02:42 melodie ok
02:42 melodie then go for it
02:42 melodie -g is for gnome menus
02:42 ironcamel replace sakura with gnome-terminal?
02:42 melodie -x for xfce menus
02:42 melodie yes
02:42 melodie exactly
02:42 melodie and -t for terminal
02:42 melodie there is one more switch which I don't use is -k for kde
02:42 melodie I don't use kde apps
02:43 melodie in the desktop files you often get ShowOnlyIn=SomeDesktops;
02:43 melodie or such
02:43 melodie these switches are made for this kind of thing
02:44 melodie do you have a pic with your desktop ? :)
02:44 ironcamel so how would i run openbox-menu manually?
02:44 melodie I show you a post where I reported it
02:44 melodie well, in console ? just "openbox-menu"
02:44 melodie but there is one more way
02:45 melodie openbox-menu even lighter - http://beta.linuxvillage.net/index.php/topic,200.msg1277.html#msg1277
02:45 ironcamel melodie: http://ironcamel.com/files/ss.png
02:46 ironcamel when i run it in the console, nothing happens
02:46 ironcamel what is supposed to happen?
02:46 melodie it might be because of the latest menu-cached... :/
02:47 melodie same here
02:47 melodie "** (openbox-menu:7407): WARNING **: Cannot create menu, check if the .menu file is correct
02:47 melodie "
02:47 melodie just logout/login, then you should have your menus
02:47 ironcamel $ openbox-menu
02:47 ironcamel ** (process:18816): WARNING **: removed previous socket file /tmp/.menu-cached-:0-naveed
02:47 melodie it used to display the whole menu
02:47 melodie do you have a 64bits install ?
02:47 ironcamel yes
02:47 melodie wait a sec
02:48 melodie I'll show you some comments at aur
02:48 melodie https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/openbox-menu
02:49 melodie mimas answered in the comments, I think it might have helped the ones using 64bits boxes
02:49 melodie mervinb found a workaround !
02:52 ironcamel i created that script in ~/bin instead of /usr/local/bin
02:52 ironcamel now when i run it, it just dumps some xml
02:52 melodie ironcamel I hope you will get to be able to use it, it's a nice program (I have to make a 64bits machine I have working again)
02:52 melodie dumping xml is good !
02:52 melodie it means it works
02:53 ironcamel that's all it does?
02:53 melodie do a right click on the desktop
02:53 ironcamel ok
02:53 melodie you should see "Application" then all the categories on the right
02:53 melodie I show a few pics to you:
02:53 ironcamel my menu looks the same as before
02:53 melodie http://meets.free.fr/debian/images/obubuntu-RC8-menus.png
02:54 ironcamel yeah, mine doesn't do that
02:54 ironcamel i don't have the menue on the right
02:54 melodie http://meets.free.fr/debian/images/2-Ubuntu-Openbox-desktop.png
02:54 melodie did you logout/login ? first time it might help
02:55 melodie did you reload openbox btw ?
02:55 ironcamel i have not logged out/in.
02:55 melodie after editing menu.xml
02:55 ironcamel do i need stuff in autostart ?
02:55 melodie yes
02:55 melodie you need:
02:55 melodie <melodie> one of the first lines in my autostart file, to match the menu.xml line:
02:55 melodie <melodie> openbox-menu -o menu.xml -p -g -x -t "sakura -e" lxde-applications.menu &
02:55 melodie this
02:55 melodie openbox-menu -o menu.xml -p -g -x -t "sakura -e" lxde-applications.menu &
02:56 melodie mine starts this way here:
02:56 melodie #!/bin/sh
02:56 melodie # lancer openbox-menu en tâche de fond
02:56 melodie openbox-menu -o menu.xml -p -g -x -t "sakura -e" lxde-applications.menu &
02:56 melodie ## autorisations polkit en test
02:56 melodie /usr/lib/polkit-gnome/polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1 &
02:56 melodie ...
02:57 melodie I have also prepared a set of configurations for : Ubuntu, Debian, Sabayon, and PCLinuxOS. each tested and working.
02:57 melodie all online on a web space, of course.
02:57 ironcamel what does openbox-menu -o menu.xml do?
02:57 ironcamel does it overwrite menu.xml?
02:58 melodie well, you should type in console "openbox-menu --help" then you will have the answer
02:58 melodie output perhaps ?
02:58 ironcamel seems the answer is yes
02:58 melodie :)
02:58 ironcamel <menu id="desktop-app" label="Applications" execute=" cat ~/.cache/menu.xml" />
02:58 ironcamel i have a question about ^^^
02:58 ironcamel ~/.cache/menu.xml
02:58 ironcamel i don't have that file
02:59 melodie (sorry, my cat talks to me at same time, I have to listen to her... saying 'mrii')
02:59 melodie do you have a .cache ?
02:59 ironcamel yes
02:59 melodie did you put a " where it must not be ?
02:59 ironcamel what?
02:59 melodie I check
03:00 melodie $ pastebin menu.xml
03:00 melodie http://pastebin.archlinux.fr/459771
03:00 melodie $ pastebin autostart
03:00 melodie http://pastebin.archlinux.fr/459772
03:00 melodie now we can check together
03:01 melodie if that still does not work, try login/logout, chances it works
03:02 ironcamel before i login/logout, i want to make sure my menu.xml is correct
03:02 ironcamel this seems strange: execute=" cat ~/.cache/menu.xml"
03:02 ironcamel since i do not have that file
03:02 melodie what menu files do you have in /etc/xdg/menu ?
03:02 melodie cat will create it
03:03 melodie cat does not only show files, it also creates, pipes...
03:03 melodie " cat - concatenate files and print on the standard output
03:03 melodie "
03:03 ironcamel cat file_name will show the contents of file_name
03:03 ironcamel not create the file
03:03 ironcamel $ ls /etc/xdg/menus/
03:03 ironcamel applications.menu gnomecc.menu kde-applications.menu
03:04 ironcamel i don't have lxde-applications.menu
03:04 ironcamel so should i update my autostart line?
03:04 melodie you have to adapt accordingly
03:04 melodie choose one of your menus
03:04 melodie applications is ok too
03:05 ironcamel applications.menu?
03:06 melodie me thinks juste applications might work
03:06 ironcamel $ openbox-menu -o menu.xml -p -g -x -t "gnome-terminal -e" applications.menu
03:06 ironcamel ** Message: wrote to /home/naveed/.cache/menu.xml
03:06 ironcamel looks like i have a ~/.cache/menu.xml now
03:06 melodie ok !
03:07 melodie do you have the menu showing in openbox right-click menu now ?
03:07 melodie ironcamel tell me, then I go to sleep :D
03:08 melodie horribly late here, didn't see time running
03:08 ironcamel logging out now ...
03:08 melodie ok
03:09 ironcamel melodie: no :( it's the same as before
03:09 melodie humm
03:10 melodie you might want to write to mimas
03:10 ironcamel ok
03:10 ironcamel thanks for your help anyway
03:10 melodie you should check here first : http://mimasgpc.free.fr/openbox-menu_en.html
03:12 melodie ironcamel and from google code his mail is : mimasgpc at free dot fr
03:12 melodie ironcamel next time you will tell me how you solve it
03:12 melodie :)
03:12 melodie good / night: or any other part of the time
03:12 ironcamel goodnight :)
03:12 melodie thanks :)

10:10 pdurbin please let me know if you want some other stuff loaded
10:10 pdurbin or if you'd like to be an owner
13:53 pdurbin some chatter with ironcamel about scaling web apps: http://irclog.greptilian.com/sourcefu/2013-03-20#i_4370
14:33 semiosis @version
14:33 crimsonfubot semiosis: The current (running) version of this Supybot is 0.83.4.1+gribble (2011-06-27T14:41:49-0400). The newest version available in the gribble git repository is 0.83.4.1+gribble (2011-08-12T18:12:56-0400).
14:34 semiosis pdurbin: i'd suggest upgrading to the limnoria fork, it's actively maintained
14:34 semiosis google limnoria github
14:34 crimsonfubot https://github.com/ProgVal/Limnoria
14:34 semiosis that's a bug, the bot shouldn't (imho) respond to any message beginning with 'google'
14:35 semiosis also there's a plugin ('web' iirc) that fetches page titles for urls in channel
14:36 pdurbin semiosis: is it in base or epel?
14:37 semiosis pdurbin: JoeJulian might be able to answer that, idk whats in rpm repos these days. i just pulled the source from github & followed the install instructions -- it was real easy
14:38 pdurbin semiosis: cool, you can send me a pull request: https://github.com/pdurbin/greptilian-vagrant ;)
14:39 semiosis noted :)
14:43 pdurbin semiosis: as long as you can automate the install and setup with puppet it's fine by me
14:45 semiosis well, i *can*, but i have a feeling that's not really sufficient
14:45 semiosis probably need to actually do it
18:21 pdurbin hmm. http://mirror-status.repoforge.org
20:25 JoeJulian One more reason to dislike gem: "invalid option: --include-dependencies". Yum, and I'm sure apt, have allowed the same options that they allowed in 1994. If those options are no longer used, they just ignore them.
20:28 pdurbin wait, something in ruby dropped backward compatibility?
20:30 comptona pdurbin: if it's in a distro package, it's too old
20:35 pdurbin comptona: well, doesn't puppet kinda work with ruby distro packages? or maybe it used to
20:35 comptona it varies
20:35 comptona puppet 3 doesn't work with ruby 1.8.5 anymore, which is what RHEL 5 has
20:36 JoeJulian The ruby distro package update is what broke that. It's been deprecated for a long time. Puppet is from the puppetlabs repo so it's the latest bleeding edge.
20:36 comptona but in general I think they do a good job of backwards compatibility
20:54 sjoeboo puppet 3 from the pupeptlabs repo has newer (backported?) ruby w/ it as a dep, so it can be used on EL5 systems
20:54 sjoeboo thats how we got to 3 a few days after release
23:09 melodie hi
23:53 pdurbin melodie: looks like ironcamel figured it out
23:54 melodie pdurbin great ! :D
