09:48.47nealmorning florian.
09:49.00florian_kcgood morning
09:50.43pb_hi florian_kc
09:50.44pb_hi neal
09:51.44pb_ibot, botmail for zecke: hail zecke.  please change the tarball URI in xstroke_0.6.bb to http://people.freedesktop.org/~pb/xstroke-0.6.tar.gz
09:52.17Readoni want to try GPE, but how to setup my environment about GTK/X ?
09:52.51florian_kcReadon: What kind of device do you intend to use?
09:53.45nealpb, florian: I was thinking: when entering text for a date, it might be useful to automatically convert O's to 0 and l's to 1.  This is a common mistake for us when using handwriting to enter new events.
09:54.15Readonembedded LCD controller with framebuffer
09:54.30Readonflorian_kc: embedded LCD controller with framebuffer
09:55.11florian_kcneal: that's a nice idea!
09:55.37nealflorian: I thought it might have been over engineering.
09:55.49pb_neal: sounds like a good plan to me
09:56.15florian_kcReadon: that would depend on some details about that "lcd controller".
09:56.52florian_kcneal: i don't think so... its not too intrusive, doesn't bloat the whole thing too much and improves usability.
09:58.17Readonflorian_kc: we have driver for it. And it support framebuffer as linux kernel did.
10:00.19florian_kcReadon: ah okay, then using kdrive should do the trick.
10:00.21Readonflorian_kc: actually, i want to test gpe on our board both on GTKDirectFB, GTK/TinyX and GTK/NanoX.
10:01.07florian_kcReadon: i'm sure it won't work well with GTKDirectFB out of the box.
10:01.20Readonflorian_kc: where do you get the copy or sources?
10:01.57florian_kcReadon: as long as are not really low of resources you want to ise tinyX/kdrive
10:02.05Readonflorian_kc: it require X features?
10:02.25florian_kcReadon: handhelds.org/projects/gpe/sources
10:02.49florian_kcReadon: yes, we mack use of Xembed and some communication features.
10:02.55florian_kcs/mack/make
10:03.42Readondoes nanoX support that?
10:04.39florian_kcReadon: not sure, but some feedback about if it works would be interesting.
10:04.46*** join/#gpe cedric__ (n=cedric@AAnnecy-152-1-109-233.w86-200.abo.wanadoo.fr)
10:05.04cedric__hi all
10:05.49Readonflorian_kc: i think handhelds.org/projects/gpe/sources is not available
10:06.24florian_kcReadon: compiling all the bits gpe needs/consists of manually is a pain... maybe use OpenEmbedded.
10:06.39florian_kchrm.. one sec
10:06.52Readonflorian_kc: that would be interesting, it seems that nanox runs faster than tinyx:)
10:06.57pb_source, not sources
10:07.13pb_and I think you need ftp.handhelds.org
10:07.35florian_kcah right, http doesn't work for that anymore
10:07.40Readonflorian_kc: i think so, OpenEmbedded is also a sucks for me, because of the poor net
10:07.49pb_http works fine, but you need "ftp.handhelds.org" as the hostname
10:08.03florian_kcpb_: okay
10:08.39pb_just saying "handhelds.org" gets you h7, whereas those bits are on h2
10:10.01Readonpb_, but those gcc bits cost me 1 day. at last, i gave up.
10:10.20pb_Readon: sorry, I have no idea what you are talking about
10:12.33Readonpb_, bitbake takes me one day to get the gcc sources from gnu cvs.
10:12.43pb_that is unfortunate
10:12.57Readonflorian_kc: do you mean xserver-common tarball?
10:13.09pb_I don't know why it would be getting them from cvs, though.  I suppose you should complain to the folks in #oe.
10:13.37Readonbut i can get tarball much faster through http proxy :)
10:14.45florian_kcReadon: Didn't want to download the GPE sources?
10:15.52Readonflorian_kc: en, yes, i would download it all.:)
10:18.03florian_kcReadon: you might find out that there are multiple releases and you usually wnat the latest ones only.
10:19.19Readonflorian_kc: sure
10:25.59*** join/#gpe JAV (n=JAV@105.Red-80-34-40.staticIP.rima-tde.net)
10:26.30florian_kcReadon: xserver-common is a support package to bring up X only.
10:34.35nealpb, florian: What about vertically centering text in the day view?
10:35.06koenneal: for the description or title?
10:35.20nealkoen: For the block of text as a whole
10:38.38koenneal: what about making it configurable?
10:38.48florian_kcneal: not sure, i guess its easier to read if it stays on top
10:41.29pb_I don't really have any strong view on that.  Making it configurable doesn't seem like a good idea, though: I don't think it's important enough to justify that sort of control.
10:42.02pb_If you wanted to make it centered, I certainly wouldn't have an objection.
10:42.13nealfor events that are only an hour long, the layout looks haphazard
10:42.28nealfor long events, the control scrolls and then the top of the event goes out of view
10:42.52florian_kchmm right, that's a reason
10:43.23nealalso, we print the times in a <span size='normal'> but the descriptions in <span size='small'>
10:46.37pb_grr, why isn't gtk-webcore in the familiar 0.8.2 source directory?
10:47.14pb_ah, it is in 0.8.3 though
10:47.32florian_kciirc the first release of gpe-mini-browser was after 0.8.2
10:47.49pb_oh right, fair enough
10:48.11pb_I wish the .bb file used a tarfile rather than a sourceforge cvs checkout
10:48.26koenpatches welcome
10:48.27florian_kchrm... i broke libgpewidget or libgpepimc
10:48.40pb_it's rather annoying that you can only compile during the 25% of the time when sourceforge's cvs servers are working
10:48.41pb_oh well
10:48.46florian_kcsf cvs is never a good idea...
10:50.15pb_looks like it's compiling now, anyway
10:50.40florian_kcthat's a good idea...

14:43.09nealas I was saying before, the descriptions are printed in a <span font_desc='small'> where as the times are printed in a 'normal'.  Any reason to not print both in a small font?
14:43.17neal(or both in a large font)
14:43.25nealflorian, pb: Any comments?
14:44.44florian_kcneal: let me see how it looks on a device with a high resolution screen.
14:45.31nealyou mean you want a screen shot?
14:47.41florian_kcneal: no, i just want to compare the difference on a "critical" device here.
14:48.55nealok.
14:49.10nealit's worth nothing that the week view and the month view use a normal font.
14:49.19neals/nothing/noting/
14:50.19florian_kcbtw
14:50.20florian_kchttp://www.kernelconcepts.de/~fuchs/category-editor.png
14:50.27florian_kc(sorry for the size...
14:51.56nealnot bad.
14:51.58florian_kcneal: hmm... maybe everything should use a small font.
14:53.32florian_kckoen: that screenshot might be wanted you wanted to see lately...
14:53.55nealwhy doesn't the theme take care of this?
14:54.01nealI mean, if eveything is small, what's the point?
14:54.17nealin that case, small simply means "normal"
14:55.14florian_kcneal: you are able to fit more text comparared to other applications.
14:58.02koenflorian_kc: indeed
15:02.50florian_kcI need do do some more testing and fix a minor issue in libgpewidget before we can release this.
15:07.58pb_neal: I think it'd probably be best for everything to use the normal font.  Most folks seem to set the standard font size in the theme to the smallest size that they can comfortably read (to maximize the amount that fits on the screen), so I suspect that "small" will probably be undesirably small in a lot of cases.
15:08.18nealThat's what I was thinking.
15:08.34florian_kchmm... that might be true...
15:08.35pb_It might make sense to use "small" for information that's truly unimportant, but I don't think you could really claim that about the description field in the calendar.
15:08.35nealalthough you articulated it a bit better.
15:08.38nealflorian: Do you agree with this rationale?
15:09.20florian_kcneal: yes, that might be better...

21:39.18florianPhilippe: the leftmost yes - it shows the current setting, the rightmost is a bug.
21:40.32Philippeok! That explains a lot. It is a little bit unclear from a screenshot.
