[09:00] <akgraner> what channel is the uds-desktop discussion on parental control using
[09:00] <akgraner> I am listening to it right now
[10:26] <towolf> how do i get gdm on vt1? i set FirstVT=1 in gdm.conf-custom, but now it comes up in vt8 for some reason.
[10:29] <chrisccoulson> towolf - you want #ubuntu for support
[10:30] <towolf> chrisccoulson: ok, i’ll give it a shot.
[12:06] <maxb> Can anyone point me to where the "Start metacity when compiz crashes" logic lives?
[20:39] <salty-horse> what causes an app to choose the image in /usr/share/icons/hicolor/22x22/ over the one in /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/ as its icon?
[20:47] <dobey> salty-horse: icon for what?
[20:47] <salty-horse> some non-ubuntu package. (dropbox)
[20:47] <salty-horse> I'm asking a general gnome question, I guess
[20:47] <dobey> apps just request a name and size, so it's probably requesting an icon of that size
[20:48] <dobey> not that the dropbox icon is used anywhere that 48px would make sense in most of the ui
[20:48] <dobey> maybe in its about box if it has one
[20:48] <salty-horse> I'm talking about the icon that appears in the alt+tab switcher
[20:49] <salty-horse> it shows a highly-pixelated image
[20:49] <dobey> that's the window manager's fault then, or maybe dropbox as well.
[20:50] <salty-horse> or it's probably defined in the application itself
[20:50] <salty-horse> thanks
[20:50] <salty-horse> I think I found it in the source code
[20:50] <dobey> if dropbox isn't setting the window icon properly
[21:01] <chrisccoulson> salty-horse - i think the application should call gtk_window_set_icon to define the icon shown by the WM
[21:01] <salty-horse> chrisccoulson, yup, I found the place where the app does that. it has the low-res icon encoded in its bowels
[21:01] <salty-horse> thanks!
