rickspencer3mrooney: what kind of hints are you looking for?00:31
mrooneyrickspencer3: well, if it is a valid bug or not, basically. Is that a standard for the desktop, or do we want to say it is fine for some things in System -> Preferences to not dismiss via escape?00:33
rickspencer3I believe it is a valid bug, and should be fixed, however ....00:33
rickspencer3I would check with mpt, our UI guru and all around smart Ux guy00:34
mptI'm not awake. Fortunately, this is the sort of question I can answer in my sleep00:34
mptThere should be a standard key combo for closing dialogs, and there should be a standard key combo for closing windows.00:35
mptCurrently, there is neither.00:35
rickspencer3mpt: thanks. Didn't mean to wake you00:35
rickspencer3mrooney: I think if most of the preference dialogs dismiss on escape, we should pick that as the standard, and have all of them do so00:35
rickspencer3my $.0200:35
mptIn dialogs, Esc means Cancel, so it would be/is confusing for that to close instant-apply windows (as most of the Preferences windows are) without reverting whatever changes you'd made.00:36
mptThat's one of the things that flummoxes a standard. The other is the Emacs etc users who don't like Ctrl W being used to close windows. :-)00:38
rickspencer3I thought alt-f4 was the standard way to close all windows00:38
mptThat is a standard, but not usably so -- on some keyboards it's very difficult to reach with one hand, and on others it requires three keypresses rather than two (Alt Fn F4).00:39
rickspencer3hmmm00:40
rickspencer3perhaps a uds topic on keyboard standardization?00:40
rickspencer3in the meantime, what should mrooney do?00:40
mptBasically I think it needs someone to have the audacity to devise a keyboard combo that can be consistent and easy to reach, and to get it implemented in the window manager so that applications have to go to extraordinary lengths for it not to work.00:44
rickspencer3like alt-f00:45
rickspencer3400:45
mpt(Audacity because any keyboard combo meeting those requirements will conflict with something important. Like Cmd M and Cmd H did when they were introduced in Mac OS X, for example.)00:45
rickspencer3it seems like just replacing that would be a good approach00:45
mptright00:46
rickspencer3I'll put in on the list for consideration as a UDS topic00:46
rickspencer3in the meantime, sounds like mrooney doesn't really have a "standard" to appeal to. The hig does not cover this?00:47
mptAnd if you thought the complaints about update-manager were bad, just wait until you see what the complaints would look like about changing a keyboard combo like that :-)00:47
mpthttp://library.gnome.org/devel/hig-book/stable/input-keyboard.html.en#standard-shortcuts defines Ctrl W and Alt F400:48
mrooneyalright so it sounds like if all the other ones in that menu do it, to file bugs against the very few that don't conform?00:52
mrooneyoh hey mpt I think we had breakfast together one morning at UDS Jaunty? that sounds vaguely familiar00:54
mptmrooney, sure, if you like00:54
james_wmpt: I'm confused by the changes in https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-user-share/+bug/337352 , the statement from the NotifyOSD page about the package also confuses me00:55
ubottuLaunchpad bug 337352 in gnome-user-share "gnome-user-share notification changes" [Undecided,New]00:55
james_wmpt: would you comment tomorrow if I subscribe you?00:55
mptjames_w, the statement on the NotifyOSD page about gnome-user-share is not "the desired operation", it's a description of the behavior with notification-daemon.00:57
james_wthat's what I thought00:57
james_wI wondered why it was cited as a description of the change when the patch implements something completely different00:57
mptI'm not sure what the patch does. It looks like it auto-opens the file??00:58
james_wassuming close is still sent by nofify-osd it seems to show then notification then auto-open the file at the end of the notification00:59
mpthm, that's not good00:59
james_wit's certainly not a simple "query for action support" patch01:00
mptno01:02
mptjames_w, have you seen this notification in action? If so, could you possibly provide a screencast or screenshot? I tried with several people's Bluetooth phones to send a file like that but could not.01:04
james_wI haven't01:04
mptAnd it's hard to redesign what I can't see. :-)01:04
james_wand I don't have bluetooth, sorry01:04
james_wcrevette is hot on bluetooth I think01:04
james_wbut he's in our sort of timezone, so probably being sensible and sleeping01:05
mptoh, why did I think gnome-user-share was Bluetooth? According to Synaptic it's WebDAV or ObexFTP.01:07
james_wobex is bluetooth isn't it?01:08
dobeyobex is a protocol, doesn't really /have/ to be over bluetooth, but lots of bt devices support it01:11
mptjames_w, commented01:19
james_wthanks mpt01:19

kenvandinehey seb12814:10
tedgGood morning kenvandine and seb12814:10
pittihey kenvandine14:10
tedgkenvandine, oh, no!  What's unhappy?14:10
kenvandinetedg: testing fusa from your ppa14:10
kenvandinewell 2 things14:10
kenvandinei am not getting the policykit dialog on restart with 2 users logged in14:10
kenvandineand14:10
kenvandineuser switching is only working sometimes...14:10
kenvandineseems to be X related14:11
tedgkenvandine, I'm sure those are PolicyKit and GDM bugs ;)14:11
kenvandinei do get the logout/restart/shutdown confirmation dialogs though14:11
kenvandineeven the restart required one14:11
tedgOkay, so that means that when we query, we're not seeing that you need to authenticate.14:11
kenvandinejust not prompted to authorize restart with more than one user logged in14:12
tedgAnd, if you're not getting the dialogs, it seems you don't.14:12
kenvandineright :)14:12
tedgOkay, I know nothing about PolicyKit, that's a pitti question :)14:12
kenvandineright now i am stuck waiting for user switching to fail14:12
tedgBut, it's good to know that it works when PolicyKit is configured differently ;)14:12
kenvandineafter a few minutes it fails and lets me back in as me :)14:12
seb128tedg: are you the indicator-applet maintainer? ;-)14:13
tedgseb128: Upstream ;)14:13
tedgseb128: What's up?14:13
seb128tedg: sometime the icon vanish and it doesn't list either evolution nor pidgin, I need to restart the app to get those there14:13
seb128tedg: I didn't figure what trigger that yet, but what debug info would be useful?14:13
seb128ie the indicator is still there but doesn't see evolution or pidgin running14:14
tedgseb128: Yeah, if you can figure something out there.  I'll look at it some more.14:14
seb128any debug hint?14:14
tedgseb128: I've had a case where the indicator (ping) doesn't go away in some cases... I'm looking at tracking that down today.14:14
seb128ok14:15
tedgseb128: If you compile it from source, there's a "test/listen-and-print" program, which acts like a listener on the bus.14:15
tedgI was thinking about putting that as an example or something.  But, it's compiled code.14:15
tedgShould that be a separate package?14:15
seb128tedg: if that's useful for debugging just pust it as an example in the indicator-applet binary14:16
kenvandine_wkpitti: how much do you know about the user  switching stuff?14:16
seb128tedg: we have some softwares already for that, ie /usr/lib/nautilus-cd-burner/list_cddrives14:16
tedgseb128: Okay, in like $(libexec)?14:16

tedgseb128: Okay, will do, I think that'd be helpful.  Maybe I'll figure out an apport hook too :)14:17
kenvandine_wklooks like switching back to ken actually gave me a new login session14:17

kenvandine_wktedg: yeah... and on foresight that session isn't listed in CK14:19
kenvandine_wkok, good14:19
pittikenvandine_wk: by default, CK allows local users to shut down if there's just a single session, and asks for auth if there are multiple14:19
kenvandine_wkwell i can't switch again to test :/14:19
pittiit's debatable if that's a feature or a bug14:19
kenvandine_wkpitti: well... i had the test user and the ken user logged into gnome at the same time14:19
kenvandine_wkand it didn't give me the PK dialog14:19
pittikenvandine_wk: new login sesssion when switching back> sounds like X.org crashed, can you look at /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old?14:20

pitticheck "who"14:21
kenvandine_wkno, i actually did logout14:21
pittiah, ok14:22
kenvandine_wknow i can't get both users logged in again :)14:22
pittiI thought you logged in as ken, then as test, and switched back to "ken", and found a new login screen instead of your existign session14:22
kenvandine_wkwell... i did actually14:22
kenvandine_wknot sure how that works in ubuntu14:22
kenvandine_wkshould i get a unlock dialog or gdm screen on switching back?14:23
kenvandine_wkin foresight i get the unlock dialog, but we use the newer gdm14:23
kenvandine_wkin this case i got the gdm login screen... so maybe switching users actually logged me out of the other session14:23

rickspencer3kenvandine_wk: pochu: what package is right for such a bug? It is, in fact, a missing module which is available15:35
huatsseb128: I wanted to upload a fixed version of anjuta in my ppa (2.25.902-0ubuntu2) to test build it there before putting it in the archives, but I get rejected by the ppa saying that there is already a version like that in jaunty. The thing is that https://edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/anjuta does not list that version (the latest is the one that FTBFS 2.25.902-0ubuntu1). Any idea ?15:36
seb128huats: did you have this version in your ppa already?15:36
rickspencer3kenvandine_wk: pochu: referring to web cam ^15:36
kenvandine_wkrickspencer3: you mean he doesn't have the module installed?15:36
huatsseb128: nope15:36
kenvandine_wkbut it is availble?15:36
rickspencer3kenvandine_wk: I meant that the module is not in the Jaunty kernel15:37
kenvandine_wkright, but is it available as another package?15:37
kenvandine_wkor not packaged at all?15:37
rickspencer3it's not packages afaik15:38
kenvandine_wkso either against 'linux' requesting it get built as a module in the kernel by default or as a new package request15:38

kenvandine_wkis there a package request mechanism in LP?15:38

seb128wrong understanding15:49

didrocksseb128: like libeel2, let's say they don't assure ABI stability? :)16:01
seb128they said they didn't change because they don't want to break abi no?16:02
didrocksseb128: yeah, from what I understand is that they added interfaces which can't be use because it will break ABI. I didn't build it still and have to check this myself16:03

dobeywho's updating packages?22:29
seb128everybody there?22:30
dobeyseb128: i'm just wondering if someone can update icon-naming-utils and tango-icon-theme to 0.8.90 :)22:31
seb128I just mailed the debian maintainer about i-n-u this afternoon since we are on sync on debian22:32
seb128he will update on monday and we will sync then22:32
seb128we can probably find somebody to update t-i-t ;-)22:32
seb128kenvandine_wk: ^ interesting to have a look to this one?22:32
=== onestone_ is now known as onestone
dobeyseb128: cool. i'm going to try and get jimmac to fix one small thing and then make another gnome-icon-theme release, but g-i-t and t-i-t need to be built against the new i-n-u also, to fix some other bugs that are on lp, since it adds some more symlinks and such :)22:41
seb128dobey: right, I will make sure that happens before jaunty22:41
seb128if you roll a tarball for GNOME 2.26 that should be alright22:41
seb128we will get the new i-n-u next week22:42
seb128which is before 2.2622:42
dobeyseb128: yeah, there will definitely be a 2.26.0 for gnome22:43
dobeyi just haven't done a .92 yet22:43
