Kick-off Launcher
by Calvin Morrison 13 Apr '13

13 Apr '13

Hidey Ho Neighbors, Haven't been around much lately, but school is letting out soon and it seems progress is picking up for R14. Kick-Off has been causing problems on and off for my desktops since inception. I did quite a bit of work last year to simplify it, but now the hard-drive parsing (the most ugly piece of code i've seen) has caused problems again. This is due to a questionable amount of parsing doesn't seem to work correctly everwhere. I digress. A good solution would be to 1) remove kickoff since it's unlikely that it is used, and doesn't keep in the style of trinity and port the cool features of kickoff into the original kicker panel, if there are any. 2) integrate tde's hw library with kickoff so isn't relying on a bad hack I'd be willing to do both, what do you guys think?

If the problem is preventing normal usage, then file a Blocker bug report. If the system remains usable but abnormally intolerable, file the report as Critical. Either way I'll add the report to the R14.0.0 etherpad road map. Darrell

Welcome back. I hope school is going well. :) If you want to help with the R14.0.0 release, we have a road map in etherpad listing the specific bug reports we want to resolve for the release: http://trinity.etherpad.trinitydesktop.org/39 Please don't add anything to the etherpad list without a discussion. :) Don't delete anything either and instead use the strikeout format method to tag a bug report as resolved. I believe some of the bug reports in the etherpad are assigned to you and you might want to look at those. No related kickoff menu bug reports are part of the R14.0.0 road map. Scratch that itch if necessary, but help with the other bug reports is much appreciated. :) Darrell

I've used the kickoff style menu in both Trinity and KDE4. Personally I don't like the kickoff menu but my opinion counts as only one vote. Considering the bugginess of the Trinity version, and overall Trinity philosophy, I prefer dropping the feature. Posing the same question to the user's mail list probably is a good idea before deciding. If we decide to keep kickoff then I request we add a build option to tdebase/CMakeLists.txt so packagers can have the final say. Darrell

Look at some of these bug reports to see whether the problem looks the same: http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=ALL+100%25 Reopen one if applicable. :) Darrell
