14:00:07 <SteveLamerton> Ahhhh, I forgot which timezone you are in ;)

14:00:25 <Gizmokid2005> it's setup for some people
14:01:20 <SteveLamerton> Thats what I guess for not being on IRC in such a long time I suppose
14:01:31 <Gizmokid2005> Haha, yeah you haven't been around for a while
14:03:26 <SteveLamerton> Real life has been a bit busy!
14:03:39 <Gizmokid2005> I hear ya. Has been here too, though by the sounds of it not quite as busy as you
14:06:52 <SteveLamerton> Still, I should be back a bit more now I hope :)
14:06:58 <Gizmokid2005> good to hear :)
14:07:03 <Gizmokid2005> anything in particular you wanted earlier SteveLamerton?
14:11:13 <SteveLamerton> Just your opinion on thos: http://portableapps.com/node/24092#comment-154380 I don't want to moderate my own thread but he is spewing rubbish everywhere as I cannot reproduce _anything_ he has claimed
14:12:50 <Gizmokid2005> I'd say reply once more and ask for reproduction steps for the issues...and tell him to tone it down, or you're going to clean-up his posts. He needs to keep it clean and to actual constructive comments, not just spewing for the sake of complaining
14:16:14 <redline> Bensawsome there?
14:16:38 <SteveLamerton> Yeah, I think that might be a good idea, although given his strongly stated preference for version 2 I doubt it would be worth asking for steps! I
14:17:39 <redline> hey anyone knows the webpage of StatBot ??
14:24:34 <Gizmokid2005> StatBot: help

19:08:17 <SteveLamerton> Hi ZachThibeau
19:08:40 <ZachThibeau> howdy SteveLamerton
19:09:23 <SteveLamerton> Long time no see ;)
19:10:16 <ZachThibeau> I'm not liking the version of qt the latest version of vlc is using, there are some known bugs in the latest version of qt related to the title bar. so I'm using qt 4.6.0 beta 1 was the last known version of qt that doesn't have this bug :P
19:11:03 <ZachThibeau> anyways, yeah long time no see SteveLamerton :P
19:11:31 <SteveLamerton> :P
19:11:42 <ZachThibeau> I finally got the built in gtk system tray for PChat working properly
19:11:55 <ZachThibeau> but doing that somehow broke xtray >_<
19:12:22 <SteveLamerton> I hate it when that sort of thing happens, you fix one thing only for it to break another!
19:13:14 <ZachThibeau> well thankfully it's a plugin we won't need anymore if testing keeps proving to be working well
19:13:35 <ZachThibeau> other plugins seem to be working properly though
19:14:37 <SteveLamerton> Probably easiest to just stick with the built in then :)
19:14:47 <ZachThibeau> yup
19:17:10 <ZachThibeau> eventually I'll be ready to put out a test release of what I'm calling 1.2 (technically still 1.1 Build 69
19:19:04 <ZachThibeau> anyways been testing what I can of toucan for you, haven't noticed issues that 8ball has been noticing yet

19:28:25 <mtthw92> Hi
19:28:47 <Simeon> Is there anything we can help you with?
19:29:49 <mtthw92> Well, I think Warzone Portable needs to be fixed in the updater
19:30:19 <Simeon> yes. John has to do that.
19:31:15 <Simeon> but as its already posted in the forums, I am sure he will fix it as soon as he sees it
19:31:48 <mtthw92> Ok, cool. Thank you

20:50:56 *** rouilj1 (~rouilj@64.134.97.59) has joined #portableapps
20:51:54 <Gizmokid2005> I had the menu running and ran a game that changed the resolution...I haven't used the menu since...I just opened it to launch an app, normally it's at the bottom right of my left 1440x900 monitor, but now, because of the res change that happened its at the bottom in the middle of my right 1440*900 monitor and I can't click on anything or move it
20:51:58 <Gizmokid2005> I can show/hide it, but that's it.
20:52:22 <Gizmokid2005> I haven't tried closing it yet
20:52:28 <JohnTHaller> hang on, gotta run... unexpected... please report in the test topic

20:52:43 *** JohnTHaller has parted #portableapps (None)

21:03:42 <Delano> 'lo
21:07:03 <Simeon> hi
21:08:02 <Delano> Just wanted to say thanks
21:08:16 <Delano> pa.com has been a great source for my usb apps
21:12:19 <Simeon> You are welcome! :)
21:12:32 <Simeon> We are glad you like it
21:13:28 * Delano tips his hat
21:13:58 <Delano> Yeah
21:14:04 <Delano> Recommended it to all my workmates too
21:14:11 <Delano> We're in the computer repair business
21:14:24 <Delano> Using these apps is very helpful across multiple PCs
21:14:50 *** gluxon has quit (Quit: Leaving.)
21:15:08 <Simeon> definitiv
21:16:01 <Simeon> Thats what they are made for :)
21:16:13 <Delano> Yeah
21:16:17 <Delano> Also good for reinstalls
21:16:27 <Delano> Don't have to lose settings
21:17:24 <Simeon> Lots of people use it on they local PC (including myself)
21:17:41 <Simeon> and wiht the upcoming file associations, it will be even easier
21:20:29 <Delano> Is that an app?
21:21:20 <Simeon> it will be built into the Menu/Platform
21:21:41 <Simeon> version 2.0 is rumored to be coming next month
21:21:46 <Delano> Nice
21:21:52 <Delano> I did not download the ap menu
21:22:24 <Simeon> what menu are you using?
21:22:31 <Simeon> Or none at all?
21:22:50 <Delano> PSMenu
21:23:01 <Simeon> never heard
21:24:37 <Simeon> Looks like something to try out tomorrow :)
21:25:24 <Delano> I like the fact that it has an option to close all apps and eject the usb device
21:25:35 <Delano> It's also out of the way, in the system tray
21:26:44 <Simeon> Our menu isnt as flexible as others but easy to use, has a built in backup tool to back up the /Apname/Data folders (-> small backup file) and a wallpaper swapper, language support and, as of version 2.0 beta 5 a built in updater for apps from our collection. and it sits in the system tray too :)
21:27:34 <Delano> Nice

21:28:39 <Simeon> uts very tailored to our format/folderlayout but supports other portable apps too. Here (http://portableapps.com/suite) is a screenshot.
21:28:52 <Simeon> uts=its
21:29:11 <Delano> Sweet
21:29:20 <Delano> May I suggest portable apps?
21:29:26 <Delano> Do they have to be FOSS?
21:31:41 <Simeon> we have some freeware ones too (see http://portableapps.com/apps), but we are dedicated to Open Source Software.
21:32:01 <MaienM|Sleep> Delano: First check these guidelines: http://portableapps.com/node/4507 then post your request here: http://portableapps.com/forums/general/request_apps
21:32:03 <Delano> Fair enough
21:32:10 <Simeon> Another reason is that we host our stuff on Sourceforge and they only do open source.
21:32:26 <Simeon> Of course you can suggest new apps!
21:32:38 <MaienM|Sleep> yeah, freeware can be done, but OSS is greatly preferred
21:32:57 <MaienM|Sleep> and check the links I just sent, they are on how/where to request/suggest new apps
21:33:09 <Simeon> its easier to redistribute :)
21:40:29 <Simeon> gotta go - bye everyone
