It is so bloated. I dislike projects that 'suck' in their own versions of other packages. 22:22 < cchamilt> Openoffice needs some of this package removal too. But I understand them wanting everything exactly the same for tech support. 22:23 < cchamilt> It just ruins the point of having libraries. 22:24 < cchamilt> mythtv needs qt's bindings for mysql so I had to do a pkg_qt31.conf that added them in. 22:24 < cchamilt> Now I need kde to get konqueror so that mythtv can use konq hooks to have a browser. 22:25 < cchamilt> I am wondering if a window-like gui is the best solution for specific operation of a computer. 22:26 < cchamilt> Back in the cli day, menu systems ruled most companies and organized computer users. 22:27 < cchamilt> I am wondering if a nice menu system (similar to mythtv's) could be used today to make an intuitive interface. Kind of like cellphone menus. 22:28 < cchamilt> I mean menus and a networked filebrowser/webbrowser is about all one needs if you don't need drag and drop between apps. 22:29 < cchamilt> Maybe that could be worked around too, by using some simple windowing behavior. 22:32 < cchamilt> Basically in todays gui-ness it would be putting interaction priorites first at a (much improved) start menu first, then a taskbar/switch, and then a desktop window system . 22:32 < cchamilt> Right now most window systems reverse this. 22:35 < cchamilt> twm, blackbox put start menu ahead of taskbar by putting it on the mouse. But then people like to see icons in front of them, so they add crap to panels. It would be good to literally swap between a full-screen menu based launcher and the actual desktop. Maybe making new desktops for each app. 22:36 < cchamilt> Apps could also be grouped to launch together or to tab/desktop together if launched. 22:37 < cchamilt> yeah, arts31 didnt bork. 22:38 < netrunner> rxr: regression tester about to finish? 22:39 < cchamilt> overloaded desktop are messy, they make apps get in each other way. I wonder how to fix this so that there can be side-by-side cut and paste/comparisons. 22:39 < cchamilt> maybe split frames like emacs. 22:39 < rxr> ok - commit does not compile yet 22:39 < rxr> updated commit in a few seconds 22:40 < rxr> netrunner: nope - due to damn xfree updatging 22:40 < cchamilt> rxr: heh, you should not be using the stable tree as a working tree... 22:40 < vegai> do any of you use cfengine? 22:41 < vegai> just wondering if it works as well as it claims to... 22:41 -!- Nebukadneza2 [~daddel9@dsl-082-082-077-179.arcor-ip.net] has joined #rocklinux 22:41 < cchamilt> I have looked at it, but I never had much need for that level of automation.
