01:16:25 --> hicham has joined #instantbird 01:16:32 <hicham> hi all 01:16:36 <hicham> anybody here ? 01:18:11 <clokep> hicham: Hello. 01:18:20 <clokep> I'm here, but will be gone for a few minutes, what's up? 01:18:23 <hicham> hi clokep 01:18:35 <hicham> i just tried to build instantbird with xulrunner-1.9.3 01:18:41 <hicham> the build went fine 01:18:59 <hicham> but i can't get connected to any protocol 01:19:02 <clokep> It doesn't build on xulrunner-1.9.3 yet AFAIK, you should use 1.9.2.6, which is what is automatically checked out from client.py 01:19:17 <clokep> flo would know, but its something like 3 in the morning there. :) 01:19:32 <hicham> thanks clokep 01:19:38 <clokep> I know there's some patches to get it to compile on mozilla-central. 01:19:49 <clokep> xulrunner-1.9.3 doesn't exist AFAIK though, you're using a nightly copy of it? 01:20:03 <clokep> And...I'm not even sure Instantbird compiles against xulrunner, I thought you had to use the mozilla-central source. 01:20:09 <hicham> clokep : yes, I built one on my system 01:20:24 <hicham> clokep : the build went fine 01:20:43 <hicham> i just don't see a way to debug the connection problem 01:25:12 <clokep> Is there an error in the error console? 01:26:30 <clokep> hicam: Even if it builds fine there could be run time errors in the JS. 01:26:35 <clokep> Why do you want it ubilt off of 1.9.3? 01:29:17 <hicham> clokep: because that is what i am using on my system 01:29:49 <hicham> and no errors on the console 01:32:04 --> skeledrew has joined #instantbird 01:32:41 <clokep> hicham: I'm not sure Instantbird is set up to run on XULRunner, can't you just compile it the standard way w/ moz-central? 01:33:42 <hicham> clokep : you mean build it with its own version of libxul and other components ? 01:36:07 <clokep> hicham: I don't know if it can be built against libxul is what I'm saying. I've compiled against ist own copy of the mozilla-source, which includes libxul, etc. 01:36:26 <clokep> So there's two "nonstandard" things you're doing, you're using gecko-1.9.3 and you're linking against xulrunner, not sure if either of those work. :) 01:36:45 <clokep> See: https://wiki.instantbird.org/Instantbird:Compiling 01:37:44 <hicham> clokep : yeah, this is what i have followed 01:38:05 <hicham> clokep : though somehow it didn't link against system's libpurple 01:41:32 <clokep> One second. Sorry abou t to finish my dinner. 01:43:09 <hicham> good appetite clokep 01:45:43 <clokep> Sorry about that.l 01:45:47 <clokep> What OS are you ON/ 01:46:49 <hicham> clokep : linux, fedora 13 i686 01:46:58 <clokep> hicham: if you clone the Hg repository (as that Wiki page says) then it should link against its own version of libpurple which is included. 01:47:21 <clokep> What command did you use to build? 01:49:01 <hicham> make -f client.mk EXPAND_MOZLOCALE_SRCDIR=`pwd`/mozilla/toolkit/locales/en-US MOZILLA_SRCDIR=`pwd`/mozilla CFLAGS="$CFLAGS -I/usr/include/nss3 -include mozilla-config.h" 01:49:31 <hicham> where mozilla-config.h is a symlink to the system's mozilla-config.h 01:49:46 <clokep> Did you use python client.py to check anything out or did you skip that part? 01:50:06 <hicham> you mean check latest instantbird code ? 01:50:39 <clokep> The last two steps it says are "python client.py checkout" and then the build step, did you do the checkout? 01:50:47 <hicham> no 01:50:53 <clokep> OK. 01:50:54 <hicham> i will retry with that 01:51:00 <clokep> Well if you do that. 01:51:10 <clokep> It'll check out the mozilla-central and libpurple. 01:51:16 <clokep> So you wouldn't have to link it against the system copies. 01:51:30 <clokep> I'm compiling on Windows and don't have system copies so I haven't tried to compile against them. :) 01:51:40 <hicham> ah, I see 01:51:53 <hicham> in linux system copies are favoured 01:52:02 <clokep> I know. 01:52:21 <clokep> And I'm sure they would work, but you still need to link against the correct versions. 01:52:45 <clokep> When you run instantbird I think you can add the -console parameter it'll echo any errors out onto the command line. 01:52:58 <hicham> i will try that right now 01:53:30 <clokep> Then besides that...I think I'm out of ideas and you'd have to ask flo, what timezone are you in? 01:54:16 <hicham> GMT 01:54:29 <hicham> flo is the main dev ? 01:54:43 <clokep> Yes, he's in France. 01:55:27 <clokep> He'll probably be on during your "day" tomorrow if you can get on. Usually pretty responsive. 01:55:37 <clokep> Unforunately you're not actually getting an error. :( 01:56:06 <clokep> It could be a firewall issue, etc...but probably not. 01:57:24 <hicham> if i do "python client.py checkout" that would pull latest mozilla-central hg ? 01:58:32 <clokep> No, it'll pull the latest mozilla-1.9.2, sorry. 01:58:53 <clokep> into workingdirectory/mozilla 02:00:00 <hicham> ah, thanks a lot for your help clokep 02:00:24 <clokep> You're welcome, sorry I wasn't very helpful. :) Its usually a bit more alive in here "earlier" in the day. 02:01:02 <hicham> clokep : no, you done great, it is my problem if i am trying to do non supported stuff :) 02:02:01 <clokep> hicham: I'm pretty sure that once 0.2 is out the door support is going to move to 1.9.3, but that doesn't help you right now. :) Flo did say there was a few patches to get it working with 1.9.3 (now 2.0?), but not sure what the issues were... 02:02:03 <clokep> Good luck! 02:02:08 <clokep> Let me know if you need something else. 02:02:32 <hicham> thanks 02:02:50 <hicham> i just removed xpcnativewrappers=yes from instantbird.manifest 02:03:07 <hicham> since it have been removed from 1.9.3 02:05:53 <hicham> ok, i am downloading latest hg 02:06:02 <clokep> It takes a while. :( 02:08:04 <hicham> that is the advantage of SCMs 02:08:12 <hicham> it takes a while only the first time 02:08:57 <clokep> Right, well true for this too, kind of. I mean you're downloading a repository, so it only downloads changes. 02:09:05 <clokep> But for you it has to download all the changes. :) 02:09:19 <hicham> of course, that is the drawback 02:09:27 <hicham> are you an instantbird dev ? 02:09:54 <hicham> it finished 02:10:09 <clokep> No. 02:10:21 <clokep> I actually haven't contributed any code yet, some ideas. I'm working on a couple of patches. 02:10:33 <clokep> Been using it since 0.1.1 I think, but only got involved beyond that more recently. 02:20:45 <clokep> Shortened URL to flo's blog post today if anyone needs it: http://bit.ly/cHgd3S 02:24:31 --> skeledrew1 has joined #instantbird 02:26:33 <-- skeledrew has quit (Ping timeout) 02:30:15 <hicham> clokep: does he plan to add webcam and audio support ? 02:30:44 <clokep> Uhh...eventually. :) 02:30:54 <clokep> That's the "after 1.0" goal. 02:31:07 <hicham> that would be great 02:31:21 <hicham> mozilla's platform is great 02:31:22 <clokep> Current roadmap: https://wiki.instantbird.org/Instantbird:Roadmap 02:32:20 <hicham> nice 02:32:44 <hicham> but i think that the build system should be improved 02:33:12 <clokep> Their build system is by far the easiest I've ever used for an Open source project. 02:35:54 <clokep> But tha tmight be a product of Windows. :) 02:36:01 <hicham> yes, if you are bundling everything 02:37:27 <clokep> Well mozilla-build is very nice cause it includes all the utilties you need that aren't biult in and such. 02:37:35 <clokep> And it puts you in your own environment with the righ tpaths set, etc. 02:38:06 <hicham> clokep : on linux, as you know, it is not the same 02:38:13 <hicham> coz xulrunner is already on the system 02:38:22 <hicham> so why not link against it ? 02:38:29 <hicham> as well as other libs 02:38:41 <clokep> hicham: I've used Linux (used to dual boot), but now I just run Windows. There's no reason for me to run Linux. I'm pretty familiar with how it all works. 02:38:45 <hicham> example : sqlite, nspr, nss, libxml2 ... 02:38:46 <clokep> Also used Cygwin extensively. 02:39:06 <-- skeledrew1 has quit (Ping timeout) 02:39:37 --> skeledrew has joined #instantbird 02:40:02 <hicham> I am planning to build it against xulrunner-1.9.3, then add systray support via firetray 02:40:37 <clokep> There's an addon that adds system tray support already... 02:41:33 <hicham> it doesn't work on linux 02:42:53 <hicham> there is another one for linux only 02:43:14 <hicham> it is called firetray, and it adds tray for all mozilla applications 02:44:13 <clokep> Right. I've seen it. 02:44:54 <clokep> Unforunately Mozilla still hasn't aded system tray into toolkit...I know its one of the things wanted for Instantbird 0.3. :) Its on my to-do list but IDK if I personally will get to it or not. 02:47:35 <hicham> they have other priorities 02:47:44 <hicham> like catching up with chrome and IE 02:48:36 <clokep> Oh I know, just frustrating. 02:50:03 <clokep> flo: Current state of my vertical tabs (using winstripe obviously): http://www.rpi.edu/~clokep/ib/vertical-tabs-winstripe.png 02:50:31 <clokep> (Key my content extension that would display that link inline now, right? :P) 02:55:23 <clokep> Anyway I need to get going, nice talking to you hicham. And if you need some more help I'd check back tomorrow. :) 02:55:39 <clokep> Goodnight. 02:55:44 <-- clokep has quit (Quit: Instantbird 0.2pre) 03:22:19 * tymerkaev is now known as tymerkaev-afk 03:46:35 <-- hicham has quit (Client exited) 04:36:12 <-- skeledrew has quit (Ping timeout) 04:41:10 <-- flo has quit (Ping timeout) 04:42:34 <-- tymerkaev-afk has quit (Client exited) 05:35:35 * Gizmokid2005 is now known as Gizmokid2005|AFK 05:52:17 --> Mic has joined #instantbird 05:52:43 <Mic> hi 06:24:30 --> flo has joined #instantbird 06:24:30 * ChanServ sets mode +qo flo flo 06:24:59 <-- flo has quit (Quit: Instantbird 0.2pre) 06:25:11 --> flo has joined #instantbird 06:25:11 * ChanServ sets mode +qo flo flo 06:25:39 <flo> good morning :) 06:33:04 --> Amfi has joined #instantbird 06:35:48 <-- Amfi has left #instantbird () 06:36:59 <Mic> uh, brb 06:37:09 <-- Mic has left #instantbird () 06:37:16 --> Mic has joined #instantbird 06:37:48 <Mic> PaperSheets look strange in IRC conversations :S 06:38:40 <flo> "strange" ? 06:39:35 <Mic> Not a technically but subjective 06:39:38 <Mic> -a 06:39:48 <Mic> +ly 06:57:57 <Mic> Finally :) "Windows 8: Identity Evolved - There appears to be considerable planning taking place as to how a user will access Windows. Right off the bat, one of my favorites is the following prototype which shows a user logging in via facial recognition!

Please smile and try again." 06:59:37 <Mic> "To help you with this, MS generously provides a contagious smile: :) " 07:00:12 <flo> I'm not sure I appreciate MS smiling at me ;) 07:02:03 <Mic> Maybe I'd still prefer it to Google smiling at me 07:02:42 <flo> well, don't you prefer when someone who *knows* you smiles at you? 07:03:24 <Mic> Not when it's a stalker :P 07:04:11 <Mic> I'm off to lab now, bbl 07:10:13 --> GeekShadow has joined #instantbird 07:25:07 --> skeledrew has joined #instantbird 07:28:13 --> Amfi has joined #instantbird 07:28:16 <-- Amfi has left #instantbird () 07:44:49 <flo> note for clokep when he's back: 07:45:04 <flo> about the https://wiki.instantbird.org/User:Fqueze/0.2_Launch/stability page and the "This was done several times for Instantbird 0.1, finalizing in 0.1.3." sentence. 07:45:09 <flo> This seems a bit confusing to me. 07:46:18 <flo> We released 2 security/stability updates: 0.1.2.1 (MSN was crashing at connection for most accounts when running on Windows), and 0.1.3.1 (ICQ (or was it yahoo! ?) could no longer connect) 07:47:15 <flo> 0.1.1 0.1.2 and 0.1.3 were releases including new features, and we didn't turn automatic update to them on. 07:47:43 <flo> actually, the first release that included a working crash reporter/update system was 0.1.2 07:48:32 <flo> I'm not sure how I could rephrase the sentence to be less confusing (the current one seems to imply 0.1.3 was a security update) 07:53:43 <flo> the first sentence of https://wiki.instantbird.org/User:Fqueze/0.2_Launch/context_menus probably still need improvements 08:02:33 * flo has finished looking at the wiki edits of yesterday. 08:03:02 <flo> clokep: Thank you very much for improving the blog posts! :) 09:18:40 <Mic> What about leaving the first sentence completely away 09:19:32 <Mic> And extending the next one instead .. like 09:21:45 <Mic> "In Instantbird 0.2 context menus have been added at several places since they are a well known way to interact with items in a user interface [and people might expect them to be there/able to use them]." 09:22:49 --> Even has joined #instantbird 09:22:49 * ChanServ sets mode +o Even 09:26:32 <flo> trying to debug the QQ protocol plugin hurts :( 10:53:38 <-- skeledrew has quit (Ping timeout) 11:31:27 --> Amfi has joined #instantbird 11:35:12 <-- Even has quit (Connection reset by peer) 11:35:40 --> Even has joined #instantbird 11:35:40 * ChanServ sets mode +o Even 11:36:56 --> clokep_work has joined #instantbird 11:46:29 <clokep_work> flo: Re the stability one, you're right, I removed the offending sentence. ;) 11:46:48 <flo> clokep_work: good morning :) 11:47:02 <clokep_work> Good afternoon? 11:47:21 <clokep_work> Did you see the image I left you? 11:47:53 <flo> yeah, afternoon here :) 11:48:03 <flo> yes :) 11:48:25 <clokep_work> The buttons shrink on hover/not:selected =-o 11:48:44 <clokep_work> But besides that its going ok. :) I've only rewritten half of winstripe/tabbrowser.css 11:48:54 --> hicham has joined #instantbird 11:49:00 <flo> is the selected tab the first or the third? 11:49:04 <hicham> hi flo 11:49:10 <flo> hicham: hi 11:49:35 <clokep_work> flo: I know I forgot something. :( 11:49:46 <hicham> flo : is it possible to compile instantbird against xulrunner-1.9.3 ? 11:49:49 <hicham> hi clokep_work 11:49:54 <clokep_work> Good morning hicham. 11:50:05 <flo> if it's the first, then you need to fix the title updates ;) 11:50:09 <hicham> morning 11:50:44 <flo> hicham: there's no stable 1.9.3 (or 2.0) yet 11:50:45 <clokep_work> Test A is not hovered, not selected; Test B is hovered, not selected; Tab C is not hovered, selected 11:50:48 <clokep_work> Title updates work fine. :) 11:51:15 <flo> ah, I expected the bigger tab to be the selected one 11:51:21 <flo> especially because it touches the border 11:51:32 <clokep_work> I want them all to touch the border. 11:51:37 <flo> ok :) 11:51:52 <clokep_work> My "concept" is that (on Windows) tabs are attached at the bottom to the "content" area. 11:52:09 <flo> hicham: I wrote some patches a while ago to try building against the code in mozilla-central at the time 11:52:14 <flo> but more will be needed to do it now 11:52:21 <hicham> flo : i build it successfully 11:52:30 <hicham> s/build/built/ 11:52:43 <hicham> flo : but there are runtime problems 11:52:45 <flo> and even more once the component registration changes (in a day or 2 I think) 11:52:59 <clokep_work> I essentially want to rotate the tab 90 deg CCW, so all the formatting from the "top" of the original tab becomes the "left" of my vertical tab. 11:53:27 <clokep_work> So the bottom, which is "attached" to the content will become the "right" and shuold be "attached" to the content...but currently the buttons shrink when selected/hovered. :) 11:53:33 <hicham> flo : is xpcnativewrappers necessary ? 11:54:05 <flo> hicham: does it matter/prevent anything from working? 11:54:37 <flo> if you want some help, try to be more specific about which runtime "problems" you have ;) 11:54:38 <hicham> flo : yes, in 1.9.3, it just hangs 11:54:52 <clokep_work> flo: Re: first sentence of context menus (replace with): "Context menus (i.e. a "right click") are an intuitive and expected part of the user interface. It can be very frustrating and unnerving for a user when they are unsure how to interact with a UI element and there is no context menu to show the possible paths of interaction." 11:55:03 <hicham> flo : runtime problems weren't easy to debug, as there was no output on the console 11:55:20 <flo> clokep_work: feel free to edit :) 11:55:36 <hicham> flo : the ui started fine, i created an account, but then, when i click connect, nothing happens 11:56:56 <clokep_work> flo: Done, let me know if there's other spots to check out. 11:57:10 <flo> you can see my edits if you want to review them 11:57:26 <flo> but they were all very minor details/mistakes 11:57:34 <flo> and, thanks :) 11:57:50 <flo> hicham: can you be more specific about "nothing"? 11:57:51 <-- Amfi has left #instantbird () 11:58:44 <hicham> flo : I click connect, but I see nothing, neither in the ui, nor in the console 11:59:11 <flo> not even a "connecting" message replacing the "Not Connected" in the account manager? 12:00:30 <hicham> flo : not even that, really nothing 12:00:45 <clokep_work> Mic: Where's this Windows 8 article you were reading. :P 12:01:03 <flo> which version of Instantbird's source code have you used? 12:02:12 <hicham> 0.1.3.1 12:03:22 <flo> and what are you trying to do? (why do you need to compile it rather than download the binary?) 12:04:08 <clokep_work> flo: Wants to get Firetray to work with it for systray on Linux, which seems to require 1.9.3? 12:04:29 <hicham> flo : because I want to use the system libraries 12:05:09 <flo> are you trying to make a package for your distribution? 12:05:38 <flo> if not, just give up on using the system libraries. That makes sense only for applications that are updated automatically at the same time as the libraries 12:06:33 <hicham> flo : I plan to make a package for my distribution if the build goes ok 12:06:45 <hicham> and instantbird runs as intented 12:09:28 <flo> I fear you'll go nowhere with a version as old as 0.1.3.1 12:09:31 * clokep_work doesn't want to deal w/ merge conflicts! 12:09:56 <hicham> flo : I am trying 0.2pre right now 12:09:58 <flo> and nobody can really help you about it. Most of the details about this version have long been forgotten. 12:10:03 <flo> hicham: good idea :) 12:10:11 <clokep_work> I'd be surprised if your platform offers moz 1.9.3. as a package though...its not released... 12:10:23 <flo> and it's not stable at all 12:10:31 <flo> the API will break completely in a day or two 12:11:20 <flo> where did you see that firetray requires Mozilla 1.9.3 by the way? 12:11:33 <clokep_work> I didn't, it was just my assumption from talking to hicham last night. 12:11:40 <hicham> flo : no, firetray doesn't requires mozilla-1.9.3 12:11:52 <hicham> s/requires/require/ 12:12:45 <hicham> flo : also, it should be easy to use the system's libpurple 12:13:06 <flo> no 12:13:10 <flo> you would like that. 12:13:13 <flo> It should not. 12:13:45 <hicham> it should not ? 12:14:00 --> skeledrew has joined #instantbird 12:14:03 <flo> we can't have a major part of the application completely out of our control 12:15:19 <hicham> what is the supported version ? 12:15:29 <flo> it's distributed in the source code 12:16:27 <flo> on some linux distributions, we may support protocol plugins found in the system and shared with the system libpurple. 12:17:25 <hicham> flo : you can ship it in the source tree and at the same time support the system's one 12:17:34 <hicham> flo : that is what mozilla does anyway 12:17:46 <skeledrew> bonjour :) 12:17:47 <flo> mozilla doesn't use libpurple, does it? 12:17:53 <flo> skeledrew: hey 12:18:07 <clokep_work> flo: I think he means xulrunner. 12:18:16 <flo> clokep_work: I know. 12:18:18 <clokep_work> Good morning skeledrew. :) 12:18:32 <flo> but we can use the system XUL sdk without problems. 12:18:43 <skeledrew> hey all 12:18:56 <hicham> hi skeledrew 12:19:21 <hicham> flo : why not the system's libpurple ? 12:19:58 <flo> because we changed/rewrote an increasingly large part of it 12:20:10 <flo> I guess at some point we should just change the name to avoid that question 12:21:10 <flo> the thing that people don't know without looking inside the code is that the official libpurple is not a generic library to connect to multiple IM protocols, but it's Pidgin without the GTK function calls. 12:21:18 * skeledrew hates the time difference in the logs... 12:21:41 <flo> skeledrew: you mean the offset when reading on the online logs? 12:21:48 <skeledrew> yeah 12:21:49 <flo> I guess we should ask Morian to fix that :-D. 12:22:08 <flo> it's possible to detect the local time from the http headers, and adapt automatically :) 12:22:17 <skeledrew> k 12:22:36 <flo> rewritting all the timestamps may be harder though 12:22:37 <hicham> flo : thanks, now I understand :) 12:22:52 <hicham> flo : did you try upstreaming the diff ? 12:23:16 <flo> I upstream some of my changes 12:23:28 <flo> especially the bug fixes that resolve bugs in pidgin too. 12:24:07 <clokep_work> flo: skeledrew: Yeah, I almost always click "yesterdays" and then go "Oh wait...I was still at work at that point..." 12:24:11 <flo> but to have something really usable "out of the box" for us, the whole libraries would need to be split in 2 parts. 12:24:19 <flo> I don't think the Pidgin developers currently want that 12:24:32 <flo> so pushing alone in that direction is not a good use of our time 12:24:32 <clokep_work> flo: Does Adium have a similar issue? 12:24:50 <hicham> flo : the diff concerns libpurple only or the plugins also ? 12:25:17 <flo> we try to keep the protocol plugins unmodified/compatible 12:25:27 <skeledrew> maybe a script page that loads the logs and does a dynamic replace? 12:26:14 <flo> clokep_work: they have issues. But I'm not completely sure of how they work around them. 12:26:27 <hicham> flo : so i can use the system's libpurple plugins without issues ? 12:26:30 <flo> I don't know if the libpurple they ship is patched or not (it probably is) 12:26:44 <flo> hicham: you can use them *with* issues. 12:26:57 <clokep_work> flo: Ah, just curious. :) Thanks. 12:27:35 <flo> clokep_work: at least, they don't try to build it with Visual Studio, nor to be compatible with Linux distributions ;). 12:27:41 <flo> they can ship whatever they want 12:28:02 <clokep_work> flo: True, they have a very specific platform. :) 12:28:10 <flo> hicham: bug 414 is about the issues that the debian package maintainer encountered 12:28:13 <instantbot> Bug https://bugzilla.instantbird.org/show_bug.cgi?id=414 nor, --, ---, nobody, UNCO, --enable-purple-plugins doesn't work 12:40:46 <clokep_work> flo: So Google Wave in Instantbird? ;) 12:45:12 <hicham> flo : thanks for the answers 12:45:21 <flo> no problem :) 12:45:36 <flo> clokep_work: maybe someday ;) 12:45:43 <Mic> clokep_work: http://msftkitchen.com/2010/06/windows-8-plans-leaked-numerous-details-revealed.html 12:46:01 <clokep_work> Mic: Yeah I found it. :) Google is pretty awesome. 12:46:12 <Mic> I guess my excerpt was long enough 12:46:17 <clokep_work> flo: Just tell him to write the plugin. :) 12:46:42 <clokep_work> Mic: Yes, just threw it in quotes and there was 3 hits. One was in Japanese/Chinese, so I ignored it. The other was Twitter...made it easy to find. 12:51:52 <flo> purposeful leak to create some buzz? 12:52:58 <clokep_work> Maybe, although the slides released wouldn't really create much buzz, they're pretty dry. :P 12:54:28 * clokep_work dislikes how "Application" became "app". :( 12:57:16 <flo> so what's the point of "resetting" Windows? 12:57:45 <flo> if it keeps your data/settings and reinstalls the same applications, the result should be the same as before 12:57:47 <clokep_work> I guess its like reinstalling but keeps all your settings...but I feel like if it does that, there's no point... 12:57:56 <clokep_work> Probably if you get a bad virus, etc.? 12:58:37 <flo> ah... I can't remember that "virus" is something that exists :( 12:59:03 <clokep_work> Me neither. :P Only dumb people get them. ;) 12:59:16 <flo> only crappy systems run them ;) 12:59:53 <clokep_work> Haha. 13:00:14 <clokep_work> I don't know, I haven't gotten one in a long time. I don't run AV or anything, hasn't been an issue. 13:06:53 <clokep_work> Is Instantbot not hooked up to the BuildBot or do your builds just never fail? ;) 13:07:08 <flo> we don't know when it fails :( 13:07:19 <flo> until someone looks at the page 13:07:56 <clokep_work> Hmm....firebot knows when Fx/Tb fails...can't Instantbot know when Instantbird fails? :( 13:08:26 <flo> I think it gets the information from tinderbox 13:14:57 <clokep_work> Could probably ping http://buildbot.instantbird.org/one_box_per_builder for information. :) 13:47:22 * Gizmokid2005|AFK is now known as Gizmokid2005 14:09:35 --> clokep has joined #instantbird 14:11:46 --> deOmega has joined #instantbird 14:13:12 <hicham> i am using the bundled libpurple now 14:13:26 <clokep_work> hicham: It working then? :) 14:14:34 <hicham> clokep_work: there is a problem with system nss 14:14:47 <hicham> the headers are not found 14:15:51 <hicham> even though i pass --with-system-nss 14:17:38 <clokep_work> Does the system-nss include header files or just the binary package? I know occasionally you need to download dev-packages...? 14:18:42 <flo> hicham: if you use the system libxul, you have the system nss and nspr automatically 14:18:48 <flo> so don't pass --with-system-nss 14:19:21 <flo> by the way, you may want to look at how the package was done for debian 14:21:36 <hicham> flo : debian package uses --with-system-nss --with-system-nspr 14:22:07 <hicham> flo : in my build, i see -I/usr/lib/xulrunner-sdk-1.9.3/include/nss, which doesn't exist 14:24:08 <flo> ah, messed up SDKs :( 14:24:13 <deOmega> gm all.. flo: we you able to do an update to the 'reply to nick' addon where it requires doubleclick? 14:24:25 <flo> deOmega: hi :). 14:24:28 <flo> It's planned. 14:24:58 <deOmega> flo: Ok.. is there a way i would know or do i need to just ask periodically? 14:25:26 <flo> you may get the update automatically if I upload the new version to addons.instantbird.org :) 14:25:34 <skeledrew> deOmega: it's just a matter of editing the JS file and changing "clicl" to "dblclick"... 14:25:47 <skeledrew> *"click 14:26:03 <hicham> flo : can i force NSS_CFLAGS and NSS_LIBS to have certain values ? 14:26:03 <deOmega> flo: Thank you! :0 14:26:18 <deOmega> skeledrew: easier said than done :) 14:26:21 <hicham> flo : other than by patching configure.in 14:26:28 <skeledrew> really? 14:26:40 <clokep_work> deOmega: Might be a good way to learn how to do some things though. :) 14:26:44 <skeledrew> you could do a search/replace... 14:26:44 <flo> export these as environment variables I guess. 14:26:53 <hicham> i will try 14:27:15 <skeledrew> mine's double click :) 14:27:29 <clokep_work> deOmega: Also I put up a teaser of vertical tabs, which I believe it was you that was asking about it? Not quite ready for use though. http://www.rpi.edu/~clokep/ib/vertical-tabs-winstripe.png 14:28:12 <flo> http://queze.net/goinfre/replytonick-1.0.xpi 14:28:23 <flo> I just added the "dbl" thing ;) 14:28:31 <deOmega> flo: I tried messing around with an addon last week.. trying to learn and i will tell you my conclusion:.. I will remain just an end user and admire the handiwork. 14:28:32 <skeledrew> flo: nice 14:28:45 <deOmega> flo: thank you :) 14:28:47 <skeledrew> deOmega: lol 14:28:52 <flo> np :) 14:28:56 <deOmega> clokep_work: will get that right now :) 14:29:04 <flo> I figured it would take more time to procrastinate it than to do it right now ;) 14:29:45 <clokep_work> deOmega: Drag and drop doesn't work. So...I'm working on it. Been busy the last few days though. 14:30:12 <deOmega> clokep_work: vet tabs! WOW!!1 YES sir! my brother will be soo pleased 14:31:03 <deOmega> clokep_work: that was just the screen shot you gave me though, right? 14:31:25 <deOmega> You know guys.. treat me as ome of the questions/hassles you may get from everyday users. 14:31:30 <skeledrew> clokep_work: *sighs* that addon would kill too much of my screen space, else i'd get it... 14:31:34 <clokep_work> deOmega: Yes. Still some bugs to be worked out. 14:32:35 <deOmega> clokep_work: ok, thank you. Looks nice! 14:32:39 <clokep_work> skeledrew: Yeah it tends to take up a bit more space unless you want to make the input box and stuff tiny. :( 14:33:06 <deOmega> clokep_work: but the tabs would be resizable, no? 14:33:23 <skeledrew> it would allow me to see more tabs at once though 14:33:43 <skeledrew> but i'd more go for multi row tabs ;) 14:34:05 <clokep_work> skeledrew: /You/ can make a multi-row tabs extension, not something I'm interested in. :) 14:34:20 <skeledrew> i think i'll take it for a spin :) 14:34:29 <skeledrew> lol. yeah... 14:34:34 <clokep_work> deOmega: Horizontally resizable? Ideally, but I haven't thought about that part yet. 14:35:02 <skeledrew> i'm more focused on extended notification styles though 14:35:04 <deOmega> You guys seem really great for the community. I may have shed a tear just now lol 14:35:07 <hicham> it didn't work 14:35:52 <clokep_work> deOmega: There's lots to be done even from a non-technical stand point. ;) 14:35:53 <skeledrew> clokep_work: that'd be a great + 14:36:39 <hicham> i am adding nss to cflags 14:37:00 <clokep_work> skeledrew: Also, once buddy icons are available in Ib, I think it'd be interesting to show only those along those along the side, and affects could be applied for idle/away buddies. 14:37:26 <skeledrew> clokep_work: i was JUST thinking about that :) 14:37:33 <clokep_work> skeledrew: I.e. it could be gray scaled when idle, red border on away, etc. So you'd only lose 35 pixels or whatever along the side. 14:37:34 <deOmega> I will work on being here more often .. maybe i will see some holes. 14:37:46 <skeledrew> yeah 14:38:00 <skeledrew> hmm 14:38:09 <skeledrew> clokep_work: where's the addon? 14:38:23 <clokep_work> skeledrew: On my hard drive at my apartment. :) 14:38:37 <skeledrew> lol 14:38:43 <skeledrew> no prelim release? 14:38:56 <clokep_work> I was only home for 45 minutes before going to bed last night. Didn't have time to put up source code or anything. 14:39:16 <skeledrew> k 14:39:38 <clokep_work> skeledrew: My plan is to have a 0.1 once I fix the awkward width resizing issue I'm having. (and I need to port pinstripe/gnomestripe, and leave them completely untested...) 14:39:54 <skeledrew> k 14:40:01 <flo> clokep_work: untested until someone plays around ;) 14:40:17 <clokep_work> flo: True, but untested when released. :) 14:40:31 <-- deOmega has quit (Quit: Instantbird 0.2pre) 14:40:33 --> deOmega has joined #instantbird 14:41:26 <clokep_work> skeledrew: Mockup of Firefox w/ Vertical tabs using only favicons, similar to my thought of buddy icons: http://groups.google.com/group/mozilla.dev.usability/browse_thread/thread/704de53131a2afa3# 14:42:43 <deOmega> YOu know.. i just realized something.. there is no way to tell on the buddy list (which i must admit I rarely look at), when one is connected to an IRC server. Dunno if it is necessary either. 14:43:18 <deOmega> doubleclick works of course.. thank you :) 14:43:33 <skeledrew> clokep_work: looks good 14:44:06 * skeledrew is getting back to the school of XUL... 14:46:00 <flo> clokep_work: what about doing that, but with a "dock" effect (like on Mac OS X), so that you have a big target to click? :) 14:46:35 <clokep_work> flo: You mean doing the buddy icons but making them "larger" and "pop out" on mouseover? 14:46:43 <flo> yeah 14:46:53 <deOmega> skeledrew: I LOVE that idea in that link with the tabs using icons. I would welcome that indeed. 14:46:58 <flo> and add the name when hovered 14:47:01 <clokep_work> Could be done. :) Give me support for buddy icons first. ;) 14:47:15 <flo> which support do you need for that? 14:47:28 <clokep_work> Uhh...are buddy icons supported at all? Can we get to them? 14:47:38 <flo> you cannot set yours 14:47:46 <clokep_work> And they're not shown in the UI? 14:47:49 <clokep_work> Only on mouseover... 14:47:51 <flo> but the icons of your contacts are visible in tooltips (both in the buddy list and on tabs) 14:47:55 <clokep_work> So I guess we can get to it. :) 14:48:27 <clokep_work> OK, well...can I finish the basic version with just moving the tabs first or do you want everything at once? :P You want some pizza w/ it too? 14:48:45 <skeledrew> clokep_work: maybe it's a matter of rerouting the buddy icons shown in the tooltip to the tabs 14:48:46 <deOmega> wow, such an excellent idea... I am floored. 14:49:38 <clokep_work> flo: Also I assume you mean adding the name / large icon as pop up, right? Adding content to the tab is quite bad since it'd constantly cause the tab bar to resize... 14:49:53 <flo> I'd love the icon to be a 3D model/avatar of the person 14:50:07 <flo> with the expression on the head matching the last emoticon used 14:50:08 <clokep_work> flo: I'm not James Cameron here. Give me a break. 14:50:15 <flo> and the hand moving when there are new messages 14:50:23 <hicham> and libnotify 14:50:26 <skeledrew> flo: wow. slow down a bit there. it's still in alpha... 14:50:30 <clokep_work> Hahaha. That all sounds too "Mac"-ie to me. 14:50:51 <flo> clokep_work: at this point, I'd rather do it on paper with a pencil ;) 14:51:17 <clokep_work> flo: I like the pop up idea though, could probably replace the tool tip with it. 14:51:18 <flo> hicham: what about libnotify? 14:51:52 <flo> the tooltip is already a custom popup actually ;) 14:52:09 <hicham> flo : for notifications about who just connected, and who just disconnected 14:52:19 <clokep_work> flo: I'll just overlay it then, add some nice glass behind it once we have gecko-2.... 14:52:34 <deOmega> so if someone does not have a buddy icon, we will be able to assign one to them manually? 14:53:07 <flo> hmm, good point. 14:53:09 <skeledrew> i have plans to put those notifications, and more, in toaster popups... 14:53:23 <flo> We need a way for the user to force an icon to be used with a contact 14:53:59 <clokep_work> flo: Meta-type contacts, or just contacts? ;) 14:54:14 <flo> hicham: I'd like to do it once we have a way to know which contacts are important and which are not to the user. Having popup notification all the times about contacts that we don't care about is tiring 14:54:25 <flo> clokep_work: what's the difference? 14:55:09 <flo> a contact is a person you talk to 14:55:21 <clokep_work> flo: "meta-contact" usually refers to including the same person's "contact" information (i.e. screennames) together into one "thing" on the buddy list, etc. Wasn't sure if that's what you were referring to orn ot. 14:55:28 <flo> if you have several ways to talk to the same person, it's still a single contact 14:55:41 <clokep_work> OK, so we're referring tot he same thing. :) 14:56:07 <flo> :) 15:03:57 <skeledrew> clokep_work: hmm. just thought of a quick hack. hide the tab bar, then make a small side pane to add icons, and reroute the tab functionality to them... 15:04:34 <clokep_work> skeledrew: Why? I can use the tabs (and all the functionality of tabbrowser) without extra work, what would that gain me? 15:04:51 <skeledrew> vertical icons... 15:05:12 <clokep_work> But can't I just put them on the tabs? ;) 15:05:36 <skeledrew> are the tabs easily resizeable? 15:05:54 <clokep_work> .tabbrowser-tab { width: 15em; } :) 15:06:12 <skeledrew> oh 15:06:13 <skeledrew> k 15:06:34 <skeledrew> thought you had issues with resizing your vertical tabs... 15:06:46 <clokep_work> And for the selected one...: .tabbrowser-tab[selected="true"] { width: 20 em;} or whatever. 15:07:00 <clokep_work> Just an issue of finding the right size. 15:07:05 <clokep_work> Not an issue of being unable to do it. 15:07:32 <skeledrew> size should be a user pref 15:07:45 <clokep_work> I hate user preferences. 15:07:52 <skeledrew> why? 15:08:00 <clokep_work> Cause it means I have to make UI to change them. 15:08:07 <skeledrew> lol 15:08:18 <clokep_work> Its really the /alignment/ I'm trying to get correct right now. 15:08:40 <clokep_work> Besides, I need it to /work/ before I make user preferences. :) For now I'll just force what I like onto all of you. 15:08:50 <skeledrew> the close button will have to be removable for the tabs too 15:09:01 <skeledrew> prob a dblclick to close... 15:09:09 <clokep_work> .tabbrowser-tab > img { display: none; } 15:09:32 <clokep_work> I didn't think about how to close it...haha. 15:09:38 <skeledrew> lol 15:09:47 <clokep_work> I always middle-click to close everything so... 15:09:51 <clokep_work> Didn't occur to me. 15:09:56 <skeledrew> oh 15:10:20 <flo> what about closing them automatically when they are unused? :) 15:10:25 <deOmega> the firefox addon Smart bookmarks bar, gives u the option of having icons, texts or a combination ... just throwing that out fwiw. I am sure different animals. 15:10:49 <clokep_work> flo: Port your own extension if you want that. ;) 15:11:04 <skeledrew> and people with no middle click, or aren't used to it for closing (like me)? 15:11:16 <skeledrew> right back to user prefs :) 15:11:30 <clokep_work> If the icon gets larger on hover, you add a small "x" in the top right corner. Voila. 15:11:49 <clokep_work> deOmega: Yeah the way I'm thinking now is that this would actually be a separate extension to show just icons, there's nothing special about showing only icons to do with vertical tabs. 15:11:58 <skeledrew> clokep_work: i say double clicking's easier 15:12:11 <clokep_work> deOmega: So it could have an option to show/hide status, text, icon. 15:12:14 <deOmega> clokep_work: thank you 15:12:38 <clokep_work> skeledrew: Double click feels wrong to me. :( Probably cause I used to use tab-kit where double click would collapse of tree. 15:12:58 <skeledrew> k 15:13:08 <skeledrew> ctrl+w 15:13:19 <clokep_work> Ctrl+w works already. :) 15:13:27 <skeledrew> ah that's just for keyboard 15:13:31 <skeledrew> k 15:13:42 <clokep_work> That's what's nice about using the built in tabs and forcing them to act how I want -- all that is implemented. 15:13:49 <skeledrew> maybe a "close sesame" command? 15:14:03 <flo> clokep_work: I will do once we have an "undo close tab" feature 15:14:18 <skeledrew> flo: YES! 15:14:22 <-- GeekShadow has quit (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client) 15:14:58 <clokep_work> skeledrew: Maybe I can access the webcam and the user can wink at a tab to close it. Of course we'd have to have them wink at the four corners to set it up and align it properly. :) 15:15:19 <clokep_work> flo: That'll be a nice feature to have. 15:15:19 <skeledrew> clokep_work: lmao 15:16:20 <flo> clokep_work: eye tracking looks really promising ;) 15:18:19 <-- skeledrew has quit (Ping timeout) 15:20:15 --> skeledrew has joined #instantbird 15:25:13 <clokep_work> The bad thing about being in here is I get too much feedback and I don't have enough time to program all this. :P 15:27:08 <skeledrew> true 15:27:24 <skeledrew> hmm 15:27:29 <skeledrew> mouse gestures... 15:28:06 <clokep_work> flo: I noticed in one of your blogs it has the touch gestures for Macbooks...why specifically those? Is it only supported by the Apple SDK or..? 15:29:13 <flo> The code may work on Windows 7 too 15:29:28 <flo> but I've no way to know, so there's an ifdef MACOSX around it 15:30:05 <clokep_work> Ohhh I see. Is that just a testing thing (i.e. we need to find someone running Win7 w/ a multitouch pad?) 15:30:29 <flo> I don't know 15:31:00 <flo> it's handled in http://lxr.instantbird.org/instantbird/source/instantbird/content/macgestures.js#43 15:31:18 <flo> it's copied/inspired from the way Firefox handles gestures for the tabs 15:31:45 <flo> so if Firefox does interesting things with 3 fingers gestures on Win7, I guess we can just enable it for Windows too :) 15:32:53 <clokep_work> Ohhh OK. 15:33:09 <clokep_work> Unfortunately I don't think my new laptop is going to have a touch pad, so I can't test it. :( 15:35:15 <hicham> laptop without touchpad ? 15:36:02 <flo> Going home. back later, good evening :) 15:36:06 <clokep_work> I prefer TrackPoints. 15:36:09 <-- flo has quit (Quit: Instantbird 0.2pre) 15:47:05 <clokep_work> So no reason to pay for what I won't use. ;) 16:14:47 <-- Mic has quit (Quit: Instantbird 0.2pre) 16:36:37 <deOmega> i have to comment again that the side tabs with icons option is really foward thinking... considering indeed the emergence of widescrrne though sites are not really laid out for wide screens... i would use it for firefoc myself right now if it is available... working and looking. 16:57:01 <clokep_work> Its not available, it was just a mockup. ;) 16:57:12 <clokep_work> Although you said you use VertTabbar or one of those, right? 16:57:21 <clokep_work> I'm sure you could add some CSS to remove the titles from your tabs. 16:57:52 <deOmega> ah, yes. vert tab has some issues for me though .. so have not used in a bit 16:58:06 <deOmega> what does css stand for? 16:58:51 <deOmega> i see 16:58:54 <clokep_work> Cascading Style Sheets. 16:59:05 <clokep_work> Its a way to format content on the web, and Firefox also uses it for formatting. 16:59:32 <deOmega> ah, thank you 17:01:21 <clokep_work> No problem. 17:01:35 <clokep_work> I know that was kind of vague, but I'm a little busy right now. 17:02:06 <deOmega> no, that is fine 17:13:40 <hicham> clokep_work: now it seems to work :) 17:14:15 <clokep_work> hicham: Good!

Sorry about that, I think I was talking in circles around you. 18:40:44 <clokep_work> skeledrew: It not working for hicham1 is not a valid case for it not working. 18:41:13 <skeledrew> clokep_work: so you don't think there's the possibility for other cases like his? 18:41:19 <hicham1> clokep_work : maybe i will try with 1.9.2, just to check that 18:41:35 <skeledrew> k 18:41:38 <skeledrew> :) 18:42:00 <clokep_work> skeledrew: I'm very sure that its because of gecko-1.9.3/2.0, so no.
