chris___hey folks! just switched from crunchbang with kxstudio stuff on top to a fresh install of kxstudio. great work!13:53
chris___I'm not a huge fan of kde; I'd like to use openbox as my window manager (and sort of DE). what is the best way to remove KDE and still keep all the kxstudio programs?13:55
*** chris___ has quit IRC13:59
falktxyou're quick14:00
*** chris___ has joined #kxstudio14:00
falktxoh14:00
falktxyou didn't had to remove crunchbang14:00
falktxkx repos work on all debian based distros14:00
falktxso you can keep crunchbang and kxstudio at the same time!14:01
chris___falktx: good point- I removed it for an unrelated reason (I somehow corrupted my nvidia/display setup and couldn't start X anymore.) I took that as a good time to try a fresh install of kxstudio14:02
chris___falktx: so far I'm loving it! you've done a fantastic job14:02
chris___falktx: also I'm in love with claudia, carla, and your other apps. incredible14:03
falktx:)14:03
chris___falktx: I installed openbox and am choosing that as my environment when I login, but it looks like bits and pieces of KDE are still being used to draw some GUI elements. Maybe I should just read up on how DE/WM/etc work together14:05
falktxif you selected the kxstudio theme option after install that's normal14:06
chris___falktx: ok, cool. that makes sense14:06
chris___falktx: so if I were to remove everything KDE, perhaps that would allow openbox to control the GUI?14:07
falktxno14:14
falktxthe config files are already there14:14
falktxthe most important ones are the ~/,gtk* stuff14:14
*** rlameiro has joined #kxstudio14:26
chris___falktx: ok, not entirely sure I understand... to prevent KDE from controlling the GUI I should edit the config files in ~/.gtk* ?14:31
chris___falktx: in the end though, this is a super tiny issue– doesn't really matter14:31
falktxit's because gtk apps read that file14:37
chris___falktx: ok14:37

viccuadfalktx: Hi, I'm currently in the process of packaging DrumGizmo for Debian, I have been notified that it is already packaged in the kxstudio ppa repo. So that makes me wonder: would you be open to work with debian to have all that software included in the debian repos? thanks in advance16:17

falktxviccuad: you're fully free to use any of my packages. take them, fully free of charge :)16:29
falktxbut kx and debian have different goals16:29

viccuadfalktx: I'm glad to hear that. I was wondering if you would like to make that packaging effort in Debian, and that way let the packages migrate to Ubuntu16:36
viccuadfalktx: could you elaborate a bit on how kx and debian have different goals?16:37
*** develCuy has joined #kxstudio16:37
falktxI had a long discussion with a debian multimedia maintainer once..16:37
falktxbasically its something like16:37
falktxfor kxstudio I want generic packages that work on all distros16:38
falktxwhich means compiling some libs as static16:38
falktxalso I want all stuff optimized if possible16:38
falktxand I also want backports for all audio apps, not just minor updates16:38
*** olinuxx has joined #kxstudio16:42
*** mullein has joined #kxstudio16:42
viccuadfalktx: I see. I would say all these would be a perfect use-case for the upcoming debian bikesheds (they are developer repos using the PPAs tech)16:51
viccuadI understand that as a developer, the Linux ecosystem is not as perfect as it could be. Maybe in a couple of years with projects like xdg-app, limba and the like, developers will have runtimes to target, that would suit kxstudio necesities16:52
holsteinwell,its just somewhat diverse..16:53
holsteinmaking it challenging to target one thing.. since, its completely open, the ecosystem literally cant be more open16:53
holsteinbut, that is a lot to expect of developers.. "just completely immerse yourself in each technology.. " ;)16:53
viccuadtrue16:53
viccuadI'm really hoping xdg-app and it's runtimes takes hold, that would equalize the ecosystem16:54
holsteini cant see equalization as a negative.. but, you never know16:54
viccuadof course, statically compiling things and the like poses its own risks16:55
viccuadsecurity for one16:55
holsteinthere is always compromise16:55
holsteinand, then, if the community is split about it. that can be a mess16:56
holstein"in wont use that crap.. and i will lash out at those who do!".. then, the developers see it as a bit of a mess..16:56
holsteinbut, that, as i see it, can alwayys work its self out16:56
holsteinpersonaly, i think it would be great to have more funding from interested parties.. companies selling pro-audio gear.. but, hopefully, *if* that were a thing, it would be kept as open as it now is16:57
holsteinthe open-ness is key, i think. thats the strength of the entire ecosystem.. "you dont like it? its all open, change it.. fork it!"..16:58
holstein"you cant fork it yourself? pay someone else to.."16:58
viccuadthat tends to happen once the specific technology becomes infrastructure16:58
holsteini mean, its not an elegant//simple answer, but, its allways an option16:58
viccuadfalktx: is there a way I could read that discussion with the debian multimedia maintainer?17:03
falktxit's in the irc logs17:03
falktxbut I don't remember the date :(17:03
falktxhttp://linuxaudio.org/irc/kxstudio/17:04
LAbot`Title: #kxstudio IRC logs | Linuxaudio.org (at linuxaudio.org)17:04
viccuadfalktx: thanks17:05
viccuadfalktx: do you remember the nick, or something relevant?17:06
falktxaaahhh hmmm, the nick no17:06
holsteinlooks like, its not in my personal back log..17:06

falktxTue Sep 9 17:41:48 201417:09
falktxthat's not it :(17:09
viccuadI downloaded the logs with wget -r, and used ack on it, no luck :/17:17
falktxah yeah, that part was when the logs were off17:19
falktxor better said, not yet on17:19
falktxI keep changing pcs so I don't have it here :(17:20
viccuadfalktx: I have to say that enabling optimization and backports it's perfectly doable with the official debian repos :)17:21
falktxbut at what time frame?17:22
viccuadif you are the maintainer (as you currently are), at your time frame. Once you are the debian maintainer, you have upload rights for your packages17:24
viccuadand you could have help17:25
falktxthing is, I want *less* things to do17:31
viccuadthen I would say packaging that software for Debian would be a good idea. You are already packaging the software in your own repo, package the software in a shared repo and people will chime in17:34
viccuadthat means more users -> better ecosystem -> more users again -> more donations to yourself17:37
falktxalso much less time17:39
falktxas I said, I want *less* things to do please17:39
viccuadyou are already packaging the software, you aren't going to lose time17:39
falktxeven updating the kx stuff is taking me too long now17:39
falktxI am17:39
falktxI need to adhere to all those rules17:39
falktxI need to get input from every single package to make it perfect17:40
falktxlearn a new entire process of package submission and reviewing17:40
falktxand have lots of patience fixing all the little things17:40
falktxI don't have time for that17:40
*** falktx has quit IRC17:41
viccuadyou don't have to do it all alone; eg: calf is already packaged in debian and you are repackaging it17:41
viccuadwell, I guess the conversation is over17:42
viccuadI'm starting to think that falktx may prefer to have a narrow ecosystem, for reasons17:47
viccuadsince he is just duplicating already done work by debian people, for the sake of it17:47
