robert_ancellTheMuso, hey, could you sponsor the latest gcalctool to main?  Last day tomorrow for getting stuff in right...01:57

rickspencer3hi robert_ancell_ are you here for reals?03:58

rickspencer3bummer03:59
rickspencer3I'll keep it short while I have you attention then :)03:59
robert_ancell_been happening quite a bit lately. I would chase up the ISP but that never works :)04:00

rickspencer3robert_ancell_ seems that in certain cases, the greater does not have focus, and there is no way to log in without a mouse :(04:00
lifelesscan you alt-tab?04:01
rickspencer3lifeless, nope04:01
rickspencer3lifeless, good thought though04:01
lifelessalt-esc etc neither?04:01
rickspencer3as I said in the bug, some users can't use a mouse04:01
* rickspencer3 tries alt-esc04:01
rickspencer3lifeless, nope04:02
lifelessworth a crack04:03
lifelesswould still be ugly if it had worked04:03
rickspencer3lifeless, yes, but would not be so serious if there were such a workaround04:03
rickspencer3so good thinking04:03
rickspencer3it seems that the theme changes quite a bit recently, I wonder if that could have introduced a problem04:04
TheMusoTry CTRL + ALT + Tab04:10
robert_ancellgrr, not my day.  Network problems and now text mode doesn't work after the last upgrade04:11
TheMusoyay04:11
TheMusonetwork connectivity sucks at the best of times04:12
robert_ancellrickspencer3, still there? Did you say something about bug 447049?04:14

rickspencer3hi robert_ancell04:15
TheMusorobert_ancell: yes he did04:15
rickspencer3my, quite the selection of robert_ancell's04:15
rickspencer3robert_ancell, yes04:15
rickspencer3the problem is that in certain cases, the GDM greeter can't be navigated with the keyboard04:15
rickspencer3which of course really bites if you can't use a keyboard04:15
TheMusoI know I used to be able to press space bar and start typing my password. I can't do that any more.04:16
rickspencer3so I bumped it to high, and assigned it to you, of course ;)04:16
rickspencer3TheMuso, well, on my netbook, it's busted, but my desktop works fine04:16
TheMusointeresting04:16
rickspencer3in any case, according to one of the bug comments, sounds like the greater does not have focus04:16
robert_ancellrickspencer3, right, that appears to be the case for me04:17
rickspencer3TheMuso, I don't want to speak for blind users, but I would assume that this would make the greeter work not to well if you were blind04:17
TheMusorickspencer3: Very mcuh so.04:17
TheMusomuch04:17
rickspencer3ok, so I'm thinking that accessibility-wise, we need to do something asap04:17
robert_ancellIt appears the very first time you start the greeter it occurs but it's ok from then on04:17
rickspencer3robert_ancell ... not for me, it is recurrent on my netbook04:18
rickspencer3robert_ancell .. is there a way to simply force focus on the greeter when it loads?04:18
robert_ancellrickspencer3, can you check when you're logged in if the greeter is still running (using alt+ctrl+F keys)04:18
robert_ancellrickspencer3, yes, will see why it hasn't picked it04:19
rickspencer3robert_ancell, I tried alt+ctrl+f and nothing happened, but perhaps I misunderstood your directions04:20
robert_ancellrickspencer3, in my case my session is running on alt+ctrl+F7 and the greeter is running in the background on alt+ctrl+F10 - I'm not sure how gdm decides when to keep it in the background.  If you can't find it chances are it is being restarted each time you switch user04:21
rickspencer3oh, I see04:21
rickspencer3switch to a VT you mean04:21
rickspencer3;)04:21
robert_ancellyeah, the name escaped me for a minute :)04:21
rickspencer3robert_ancell, ok, on my netbook, if I switch to VT 9, the greeter is there, and has focus (or at least keyboard works)04:23
robert_ancellrickspencer3, so is the lack of focus only occuring on startup or each time you switch user?04:25
rickspencer3robert_ancell, on startup, then when I go to switch users through the session indicator04:25
rickspencer3robert_ancell, now after doing the VT switch thing, it has focus again :/04:31
* rickspencer3 tries restarting04:31
* robert_ancell also restarting04:31
robert_ancellhmm04:35
rickspencer3robert_ancell, ok, I repro'd the weirdness and captured the steps in the bug04:36
robert_ancellthanks04:36
rickspencer3robert_ancell, gotta run ... any other work I can add to your list before I go?04:37
rickspencer3:)04:37
robert_ancellno thanks :)04:37
robert_ancellwe've only got 2 days to get any changes in!04:37
rickspencer3well, we *have* to fix this one04:38
* rickspencer3 suspects the new theme is somehow culpable04:38
TheMusoThat doesn't make sense though04:39
TheMusoits just a GTK theme04:39
rickspencer3right, but maybe some widget has focus and is invisible for something04:39
TheMusoright04:39
lifelessso04:39
rickspencer3I just don't know what other changes occured04:39
lifelessthink abou the mechanics04:39
lifelessgdm starts04:39
lifelessit starts x04:39
lifelessit starts xsplash04:39
robert_ancellit's a pain because it's got a custom widget in it and a bunch of hidden stuff too04:40
lifelessit signals xsplash to die04:40
lifelessAIUI there isn't a WM running04:40
rickspencer3hmm .. xsplash changed, and it's just a gdm app, maybe xsplash has keyboard focus04:40
robert_ancelllifeless, metacity is running04:41
lifelessok04:41
lifelessso there is a wm04:41
robert_ancellif everything is sane the focus should end up somewhere useful...04:41
rickspencer3right, but the point still remains to consider ordering04:41
robert_ancellsure04:41
lifelessso the key components are xsplash, metacity & gdm-binary04:41
robert_ancellrickspencer3, apt-get remove xsplash and see if it occurs04:41
* rickspencer3 tries04:41
robert_ancellgdm-simple-greeter not gdm-binary04:42
rickspencer3robert_ancell, ?04:42
lifelessrobert_ancell: hey, I'm just doing ideas-man :P04:42
rickspencer3ehe04:43
rickspencer3lifeless, that job is taken04:43
rickspencer3;)04:43
robert_ancellgdm-binary is the server component, gdm-simple-greeter is the gui, gdm-simple-slave is the server side component of the greeter04:43
robert_ancellthe new gdm is complex...04:43
lifelessrickspencer3: robert_ancell was correcting my understanding of what bit of gdm shows the gui :)04:43
lifelessrobert_ancell: thanks btw ;)04:43
robert_ancelllifeless, :)04:44
lifelessI'm only peeked shallowly04:44
rickspencer3boot up is much less pretty without xsplash04:44
rickspencer3dang it!04:45
rickspencer3robert_ancell ... works after removing xsplash04:45
rickspencer3robert_ancell ... works after removing xsplash04:45
robert_ancellrickspencer3, ok, there's our problem04:46
rickspencer3TheMuso, if we can't get this fixed by Thur, is removing xsplash and acceptable work around in your opinion?04:46
TheMusorickspencer3: IMO yes.04:46
rickspencer3I suppose for blind users, xsplash has minimal utility in any case04:46
rickspencer3but people can't use mice for other reasons as well04:46
* rickspencer3 notes on bug and adjusts priority and assigns to xsplash04:47
lifelessrickspencer3: I'm not sure its an xsplash problem04:47
lifelessrickspencer3: consider that once xsplash quits there is nothing more it can do; getting focus to the right place is up to metacity04:47
rickspencer3lifeless, xsplash doesn't quit ... it just get's invisible04:48
lifelessrickspencer3: it quits04:48
rickspencer3I don't think so, I think it fades out and waits for a signal from the gdm greater to fade in04:48
lifelessrickspencer3: I was looking at it with Cody last week04:48
lifelessrickspencer3: it quits04:48
rickspencer3hmmm04:48
rickspencer3fair enough04:48
lifeless/etc/gdm/PreSession/default starts it up again once the user is selected04:48
lifeless[that path is from memory, may be slightly off]04:49
rickspencer3but none the less, xsplash change, the problem occurred, I removed xsplash, it went away04:49
lifelessrickspencer3: right, but that doesn't make xsplash the problem :)04:49
lifelessthat just makes xsplash the thing that makes the problem visible04:50
lifelessrobert_ancell: do you know metacity/wm guts well?04:50
robert_ancelllifeless, no04:50
robert_ancellxsplash does catch the focus out signal though which I'm investigating04:51
TheMusoSounds like a bug I experience occasionally where I close a window, and I totally lose focus on the desktop, and can't use orca or anything but the mouse to regain focus on a window etc. Sounds very much like metacity.,04:51
lifelessTheMuso: exactly04:51
lifelessTheMuso: Thats where my money is, a metacity issue that we've found a minimal test case for ;)04:51
TheMusolifeless: Right, and whats more, this bug I experience occasionally is random as well.04:52
lifelessrickspencer3: if we need a package for this bug, all the data I have says its metacity; xsplash is dead simple and I didn't see anything odd related to window mgmt when I was looking over Cody's shoulder04:53
rickspencer3lifeless, agreed04:53
rickspencer3I'll leave it on GDM for now, as robert_ancell is working on it for the time being in any case04:53
robert_ancellwhile it may be metacity with the core problem chances are it will be easier to make xsplash play nice04:54
TheMusofoR THE SHORT TERM, THAT SOUNDS REASONABLE.04:54
TheMusogah capslock04:55
rickspencer3robert_ancell, yah04:55
rickspencer3something change in xsplash that exposed this bug04:55
rickspencer3it would seem04:55
lifelessmmm04:55
rickspencer3or, it's related to the new theme, those are the only things that changed, so far as I know04:56
lifelessrobert_ancell: what changes do you have in mind that would make xsplash not trigger this04:56
robert_ancelllifeless, not sure but other windows close without focus being lost04:56
lifelessrobert_ancell: personally, I'd look at the root cause; its often simpler than it seems to fix things properly. IMNSHO. Yada Yada Yada.04:57
rickspencer3robert_ancell, given our time constraints, it's your call04:59

tseliotpitti: would it be ok if I moved the trigger for the debconf interface to the several nvidia-$VER-modaliases packages from the kernel postinst.d? (bug #292606)11:33
ubottuLaunchpad bug 292606 in nvidia-common "dkms - error when installing custom kernel" [Medium,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/29260611:33
pittitseliot: why modaliases? shouldn't such a thing be in nvidia-common?11:35
tseliotpitti: it is there already but it's possible that the debconf interface is called before the drivers (and the modaliases) are updated11:36
pittitseliot: where are the debconf interfaces now?11:36
tseliotpitti: it's all in nvidia-common however we install the trigger to /etc/kernel/header_postinst.d/ and /etc/kernel/postinst.d/ too11:37
tseliot(see setup.py in nvidia-common)11:38
pittiand why does it break?11:39
tseliotpitti: because DKMS doesn't clean stdout and the debconf interface gets part of the DKMS output as a reply instead of getting only the output of the nvidia-detector app11:40
pittitseliot: dkms is called in *.config?11:41
pittianyway, isn't the proper way to fix that to call db_stop after being done wiht debconf and callnig stuff?11:41
tseliotpitti: no, dkms is called in the kernel postinst.d (just like nvidia-common)11:42
pittitseliot: so, I don't understand the problem yet, but moving debconf to -modaliases sounds wrong (since they are installed by default)11:43
pittiand triggers installed by default shoulnd't care which package they come from (-common or modalises)?11:43
tseliotpitti: and so is nvidia-common11:43
tseliotnot that I'm keen on adopting this solution11:44
tseliotI just want to fix this bug once and for all11:44
pittitseliot: the only proper way to fix this debconf breakage that I know is to call db_stop after you're done with debconf, and not call programs which mess with stdout in between11:45
tseliotpitti: here's the debconf script: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/292280/11:46
tseliotcurrently it has to call nvidia-detector in order to get the recommended driver (or "none" if no obsolete driver is installed)11:48
tseliotdkms is called before nvidia-common in the kernel postinst.d. NOTE: it's not nvidia-common that calls it11:48
pittitseliot: that looks fine, though, since it redirects nvidia-detector's stdout11:49
tseliotright but it looks like dkms "pollutes" the $LATEST variable with its own stdout11:50
tseliotsee superm1 reply to the bug report11:50
pittitseliot: I read it, but admittedly it would take me a long while to really understand this bug11:57
pittitseliot: if superm1 and you agree that moving it to the modalias files is the way to go, then go ahead, but it feels utterly wrong to me: conceptually (since it's got nothing to do with modalises), structurally (since it'd replicate one script four times), and behaviourally (relying on any unpack order instead of fixing the true root cause)11:58
pittiif you want dkms to run for a new driver version, it should be done in that very driver, not any other package11:59
tseliotpitti: ok, thanks for your help. I'll further discuss this with superm1 then.11:59
pittie. g. nvidia-180-kernel-source11:59
pittitseliot: well, I'm afraid I wasn't really helpful here :-( (sorry, have my head full with other stuff)11:59

chrisccoulsonseb128 - do you know the purpose of 100_load_desired_settings.patch in gnome-desktop?12:10
seb128chrisccoulson, to load the desired settings? ;-)12:11
chrisccoulsonheh. i couldn't figure out what determines the desired settings, and what benefit it gives over the upstream design12:12
chrisccoulsoni was unsure of the difference between the intended settings and desired settings12:12
seb128  * debian/patches/100_load_desired_settings.patch:12:12
seb128    - enable gnome-settings-daemon to load the desired settings12:12
seb128      saved by the xrandr capplet when the virtual resolution has12:12
seb128      to be saved and the settings cannot be applied immediately.12:12
seb128chrisccoulson, I think it has to do with configs where you need to add virtual to xorg.conf12:13
chrisccoulsonah, ok. that makes more sense then12:13
seb128chrisccoulson, the config is only applied after an xorg restart in such cases12:13
seb128since virtual is not dynamic12:13
seb128chrisccoulson, tseliot wrote that so he might know better12:13
chrisccoulsoni understand now12:13
chrisccoulsonthanks:)12:13
seb128you're welcome12:13

tseliotwhat seb128 wrote is correct12:14
* tseliot > lunch12:14
chrisccoulsontseliot - thanks12:15
chrisccoulsoni might make a small change later so that gnome_rr_config_apply_with_time() always sets the GError when the call fails12:15
chrisccoulsonit doesn't do that currently, which causes some g_criticals in gnome-settings-daemon12:16

istazI look at them when I have time but I have been quite busy with my new job12:56
seb128ok12:56
seb128is somebody else looking at those upstream, ie is that worth forwarding those or will it lead at you being too busy and not looking at them anyway?12:57

istazseb128: also you could put the bugs directly in public, only the full log should contain private data13:11
seb128istaz, ok, good to know, I was not sure if exception could have login informations13:11
istazthought it would be easier if we had the full logs (with the sensitive information removed of course)  to debug13:12
seb128would be nice if the log would not have sensitive informations to start13:13
seb128if somebody want to have a look at making remplace account names and password by dummy ones13:14

joaopintohum, i have know idea what's that TargetID about13:23
kklimondahmm, does update-manager handle PPAs and other 3rd party repositories in any way during upgrade?13:27
joaopintokklimonda, don't think so13:38
tgpraveenkklimonda: it13:39
tgpraveendoes check from PPA also and PPA is treated13:40
tgpraveenjust as any other software source. and wherever it finds latest version of the package in PPA or other repo13:40
joaopintois changes jaunty to karmic on ppas sources ?13:40
tgpraveenit will uuse it13:40
joaopintoit13:41
joaopintotgpraveen, what you are describing is apt specific, not related to update-manager :)13:42
tgpraveenjoaopinto: and um update manager does it differently?13:46
tgpraveenI thought it also did the same thing13:46
joaopintotgpraveen, update does it differently for the ubuntu official sources13:46
joaopintonot it only changes the sources itself, as it also covers some specific upgrade scenarios for some packages/components13:47
joaopintoI guess kklimonda was asking if update-manager doe something "special" about PPAs :P13:48

tseliothttp://albertomilone.com/ubuntu/karmic/distro/gnome-settings-daemon_2.28.0-0ubuntu4.debdiff14:59
mvo__tedg, no, it was not installed during the upgrade, I check now why15:00
dobeyseb128: i saw the bug, will have a fix shortly. i guess my hopes about that being the karmic release are shot :)15:00
tedgmvo__: Hmm, that is odd.  It should have been already installed.15:01
mvo__tedg, best/safest is when a transitional package is used15:01
mvo__tedg, oh? on jaunty?15:01
seb128tseliot, looks fine to me, could you send it upstream too?15:01
tedgseb128: I don't think we can remove the upstream one as isn't it needed for Vanilla GNOME?15:01
mvo__tedg, this is a system upgraded all the way back from warty I think (well, note quite, but it had a lot of upgrades)15:01
tedgmvo__: Yeah, it's another binary in the indicator-applet package.  It should have been in Jaunty.15:01
seb128tedg, I'm not sure we have a working vanilla GNOME mode this cycle15:01
tseliotseb128: sure. Who shall I talk to? vuntz?15:02

tseliotseb128: ok15:02
mvo__tedg, hm, I wonder if that means that this system was (happily) using fast-user-switch applet in jaunty and now suddenly nothing. still, a transitional package sounds like a good idea, especially when we have to deal with hardy->lucid upgrades at some point15:04
seb128mvo__, would a gnome-panel recommends be enough?15:05
tedgmvo__: Uhm, okay.  I'm not sure how that all works :)  I'll provide answers to questions :)15:05
mvo__seb128, yeah, probably. a new one should be fine15:06
dobeymac_v: looks like i need to fix something in the applet so that we can use ubuntuone-client-idle properly as an idle icon, and humanity needs to provide -idle and -offline icons15:06
mvo__tedg, thanks :) seb128 idea is good as well, I think that should work fine15:07
mvo__seb128, do you want a bug about it?15:07
mac_vdobey: if you have the hicolor icons for -idle and -offline... i could come up with something similar for humanity :)15:07
dobeymac_v: we don't have an -idle icon currently (we'll just be using the app icon)15:08
dobeymac_v: i don't know what humanity should do for idle. for offline it should probably use the -error icon and replace the ! with an x15:08
seb128mvo__, there is already a recommends...15:09
mac_vdobey: hmm.... ok. any reason for not using the ubuntu logo?15:09
mvo__seb128, hm, then the problem is most likely that its not a new one (that its unchanged between jaunty and karmic) so apt does not pick it up15:09
seb128mvo__, what is not a new one?15:10
seb128mvo__, indicator-applet you mean? how come it was not installed in jaunty for you?15:10
dobeymac_v: we've been getting a lot of reports about things in ubuntu that aren't ubuntu one, so i think it was causing some confusion.15:11
mvo__seb128, no idea, maybe a bug in the intrepid->jaunty upgrade :/15:11
mvo__seb128, or I was upgrading too early15:12
mvo__or something15:12

* mvo__ does not think so15:12
seb128in any case I don't think it's really a bug15:12

seb128good15:12
mvo__next on my list is kvm15:12
* mvo__ goes to #ubuntu-devel15:13
mac_vdobey: i dont think its easy to make a hardisk greyscale icon ;p ... easier to go with the logo... also if you file a bug for the new -idle and -offline states kindly add Humanity to the also affects ...15:14
dobeymac_v: don't make it a hard disk. the other ubuntuone-foo icons in humanity don't use the hard disk.15:18
dobeymac_v: and the hard disk is greyscale already. it's just not monotone or low-definition :)15:19
mac_vyeah ... ;) i meant in monotone15:19

cassidyKeybuk, it doesn't scroll when you send new messages and when you receive new ones?17:24
ZdraKeybuk, it scroll to bottom only if you were already at bottom17:25
ZdraKeybuk, like gnome-terminal17:25
ZdraKeybuk, otherwise I just tested Classic theme and it scroll perfectly17:25
seb128mvo, the .ui has the same issue btw, it's not just the template17:26
seb128software-center-0.5.1/data/ui/SoftwareCenter.ui:                        <property name="label" translatable="yes">Search&#x2026;</property>17:26
mvoseb128: yeah, I'm fixing it there now and replace it with "..."17:26
mvothree normal dots17:26
mvobetter ugly than untranslatable17:26
seb128you didn't manage to workaround that the other time?17:26

seb128mvo, thanks17:27
seb128bryce, hey17:27

pittiI can help out with some bits, like g-p-m/gdm/gdu/other stuff you throw at me17:32
seb128ok, will do17:32
seb128we usually are fine for updates17:33
seb128but sponsoring can use extra hands17:33
pittiright, I think asac and me can help out wit sponsoring as well17:33
asacack17:33
pitti= Release Bugs/Release Status =17:33
pittihttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam/ReleaseStatus is our report from last Friday17:33
pittigood job, folks, on killing RC bugs17:33
pittiwe just got more than we fixed in the past three weeks :)17:33
pittiprimarily because you all are eager to get important stuff on the radar, which is good17:34
asachmm17:34
pittidoes anyone have bugs assigned which you feel you can't fix by RC, so until next Monday?17:34
asacthe current wiki list looked not so big17:34
asachttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam/Meeting/2009-10-13 ... there are "only" 517:34
asacis that up-to-date?17:34
pittiapparently it's missing the X/KDE bits17:35
ccheneyi have a couple fixes that need to go in for OOo but aren't on there but i already am on top of them17:35
asacfor me bug 435073 is stil not understood. not sure how many affected17:35
ubottuLaunchpad bug 435073 in network-manager "NetworkManager 0.8 can not get IPv4 address for wired Auto connections because IPv6 fails" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/43507317:35
pittibut ReleaseStatus is from last Friday, since then one or two things got fixed17:35
rickspencer3pitti, those were the "Highs" that are tracked in karmic17:35
rickspencer3and assigned to the desktop team or someone on teh team17:36
pittiah, and e. g. bug 427734  was invalidated recently17:36
ubottuLaunchpad bug 427734 in ubufox "ubufox not loaded in Firefox 3.5 on karmic alpha 6 CD" [High,Invalid] https://launchpad.net/bugs/42773417:36

pittikenvandine: how's the empathy A/V coming along? there are some nasty crashers still?17:38
asacwell. i need someone who is currently seeing that bug17:38
kenvandinepitti, not to bad17:38
pittikenvandine: did the indicator integration crashes get fixed? (obsolete/duplicated entries, etc.?)17:38
kenvandinesome people are still getting crashes17:38
kenvandinethe indicator related crashers are fixed and uploaded17:38
kenvandinethe dupes too17:39
kenvandineand buddy signon behavior17:39
kenvandineA/V is working pretty well, but still causes some crashes17:39
pittiawe: any chance to try and reproduce the IPv6 bug?17:39
awepitti: sure17:39
pittiif it doesn't happen on a standard setup, we can probably take it off the radar?17:39
aweagreed17:39
aweit seems to work fine for me, but i'll do some digging17:39
pittisounds like it should be enough to set up a failing dhcp server on ipv6, that should work with kvm even17:40
asacpitti: awe: i think its only reproduciable if you start with 0.7 profile17:40
asacsomething like a system-connection with some specific ipv4 setting ... or something else17:40
pittiasac: profile == saved connections?17:40
pittiok17:40
awehmm, ok... i have a spare machine i can upgrade17:40
asacseb128 was the first who noticed this during upgrade a few month bug17:40
asacback17:40
pittiseb128: oh, you can reproduce it?17:41
asacpitti: profile == settings17:41
asacpitti: no. because once you fix it its gone17:41
seb128pitti, I ran once into it17:41
seb128I didn't try again since17:41
asacso the problem is that if you come from a NM without IPv6 support17:41
asacand upgrade to NM 0.817:41
asacyou might end up with the IPv6 setting set to manual17:42
asacand then you cannot connect because getting IP for ip6 fails17:42
pittiit seems that's at least enough data to reproduce the bug?17:42
asachowever, the ipv6 defaults to ignored17:42
asacso this does not happen for everyone17:42
asacand we looked around the code upstream and dont see how that can happen17:42
asacpitti: yes. but it seems to manifest itself just with a certain configuration/history17:43
pittikenvandine: how bad is bug 434878 still? should we keep it on the radar?17:43
ubottuLaunchpad bug 434878 in empathy "video calls fail frequently" [Medium,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/43487817:43
kenvandinenot bad17:43
asacso finding the NM 0.7 state that will reproduce this after upgrade is needed17:43
kenvandinepitti, i think we need to just track it well for lucid and file effect bugs upstream17:43
* asac takes a note to review the setting migration code once more17:43
asaci think best plan would be for me/awe/QA to try a few upgrades from 0.7 to 0.8 and hope that we hit the problem17:45
pittiok17:45
pittibryce: anything on your list which might not make it?17:45
seb128I had a ipv4 dchp system config I think17:46
seb128if that helps to try upgrades17:46
brycepitti, nope, things are going well17:46
pittinice17:46
seb128I never played with fancy options out of that I think17:46
Amaranthmvo: looks like we're going to have a compiz 0.8.4 release in about 5 hours17:46
asacseb128: thx. dhcp system config -> available to all users + all automatic IP config ?17:46
pittibryce: there's one remaining mesa regression, right?17:46
* Amaranth wonders if he can upload compiz stuff yet17:46
seb128asac, yes17:46
asacseb128: if thats it it should be easy ;)17:46
aweasac: i take it i should abandon work on the knetwork-manager kubuntu bug?17:46
asacawe: hidden?17:46
brycepitti, right I'm continuing to keep an eye out for mesa (or other) major regressions17:46
asacyes17:46
aweok17:46
asacthats not a regression17:47
Riddellawe: what bug is that?17:47
asacawe: maybe write up quickly your current understanding17:47
brycepitti, also going to look at updates for -ati, that's the only remaining big area that we're behind on17:47
asacso i can poke upstream about it17:47

pitti= What issues are we working on that are not on the list =17:47
pittido you have anything which still needs to make it into karmic which isn't covered by bugs?17:47
pittifrom my side, we still need to update teh copyright files in the artwork packages again, but that's techinically unintrusive (just legally)17:48
ccheneyi have a OOo ppc ftbfs and kde4 mega issue that still needs another upload, along with the mvo upgrade issue i need to track down17:48
asacseb128: i have update of ephy homepage on my list. can we put that gconf setting in some other package?17:48
asacseb128: so we can keep ephy in synch in future17:48
seb128asac, any you want17:48
pitticcheney: is it possible to get that done by Friday, so that it can build over the weekend? I'm concerned about the arm buildd time17:48
ccheneypitti: definitely should be done by friday17:49
pitticool17:49
ccheneypitti: i might wait until thur to upload to make sure no more updates appear right after my upload, heh :)17:49
dobeymac_v: ping17:49
pittiasac, seb128: http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/component-mismatches.txt is still unhappy about epy, BTW17:49

ccheneypitti: yea that was the kde4 mega issue i was referring to, right after my last upload another few patches appeared, heh17:51
ccheneypitti: so should be fixed with my next upload (i hope anyway)17:51
pittisweet17:51
pittirickspencer3: I'm done, mike back to you?17:51
rickspencer3pitti, thanks17:52
rickspencer3I'll need to scroll back, unfortunately17:52
rickspencer3but it looks like perhaps there are some bugs that are not on my radar17:52
rickspencer3so I'll look at those17:52
rickspencer3in general, how do folks feel about the release?17:52
seb128karmic rocks!17:53
rickspencer3:)17:53
asacyeah ;)17:53
kenvandinerickspencer3, what seb128 said :)17:53
rickspencer3ok, I agree with seb12817:53
* chrisccoulson thinks the same17:53
Riddella big improvement over jaunty here17:53
awe+117:53
pedro_yeah it's going to rock17:53
rickspencer3Jaunty was the best desktop I ever had, until a few weeks ago, and Karmic is by far17:53
rickspencer3some really amazing and creative work went into it17:54
* ccheney will finally be upgraded to karmic ~ friday when his ram replacement comes in17:54
rickspencer3so, let's finish strong!17:54
jcastroIt really is getting great17:54
pittiit has a lot of rough edges, but great technology, I like it a lot17:54
ccheneylooks very nice when i was running it before the ram died17:54
pittiand we'll pour polish over it in lucid17:54
rickspencer3okay, I would say that's the meeting unless there is other business?17:55
asacnope17:55
asacthx for making it quick17:55
seb128oh one thing17:55
asac?17:55
seb128not sure if that's a meeting topic17:55
seb128but do we want to keep the upstream user switcher applet in gdm too?17:55
asacwhich one is that?17:56
seb128having 2 seems to confuse some user especially that the ubuntu one is called indicator session17:56
* kenvandine doesn't think in a default install17:56
seb128asac, the one called user switcher tool in the list17:56
seb128where the dx one is called "session indicator"17:56
pittiseb128: we could use it for stracciatella17:56
asacseb128: ok. but thats not enabled by default?17:56
seb128so user who drop the ubuntu one usually add back the upstream variant17:57
pittiif it's easy to switch17:57
seb128pitti, right that's why we kept it and why I ask17:57
seb128but maybe we should binary split it and add it in depends for stracciatella17:57
pittioh argh, I think stracciatella is still broken, still gotta work on this17:57
asacseb128: is that in a separate package?17:57
seb128asac, not now17:57
seb128asac, not enabled by default? no17:57
seb128at least no on your panel bar17:57
seb128but it's in the applet list in the default install17:58
asaci dont really care. i think we should review what is in the panel applet list by default at some point though17:58
asacnot sure if it has to happen now. if its easy, putting in a separate package and not instlaling by default sounds rasonable17:58
seb128do we say it's low priority enough for karmic that we don't care?17:58
seb128or do we want to binary split it?17:58
pittiseb128: if it doesn't get in the way, I'd just keep it FWIW17:59
seb128pitti, it just confuse users who drop the applet and what to add it back17:59
asacdo we need it for this stracciatella thing?17:59
seb128but I don't think it's a common usecase17:59
jcastrokenvandine: Riddell: I need quick descriptions of what your openweek sessions will be about, please just mail them to me.17:59
pittiseb128: *nod*17:59
kenvandinejcastro, ok17:59
jcastrokenvandine: Riddell: Or I can just make it up, up to you. :D17:59
seb128asac, no strong opinion, it's better I guess17:59
asaci think a) if we dont need it and we are sure our indicator is feature complete enough, drop it17:59
asacb) if we need it somewhere else ... dont do the split if its too much work18:00
seb128ok thanks for the opinion18:00
pittiit's not GNOME, so for stracciatella it'd be nice to have18:01
seb128I think I will review that with pitti for stracciatella out of the meeting18:01
pittiok18:01
asack18:01
seb128it was just to get a feeling of what others think18:01
rickspencer3so, I think that's meeting adjourned?18:01
brycethanks!18:02
seb128thanks everybody!18:02
ArneGoetjethanks18:02
awesee ya18:02
asacthx18:02
kalon33seb128: I had a question : is it normal that polkit-gnome-authorization is not as complete as it was in Jaunty about permissions setting ?18:03
pittithanks all18:03
seb128question for pitti18:03
seb128but I think the old tool doesn't handle polkit-118:03
seb128which is what karmic uses now18:03
pittiseb128: user switcher you mean?18:03
seb128not sure if we should still install the old manager18:03
pittiwe don't18:04
seb128pitti, no, the polkit-gnome-authorization one kalon33 just asked18:04
pitti$ ls /usr/share/PolicyKit/policy/18:04
pitticom.ubuntu.checkbox.policy18:04
pittiand that's being fixed18:04
seb128$ dlocate polkit-gnome-authorization18:04
seb128policykit-gnome: /usr/share/applications/polkit-gnome-authorization.desktop18:04
pittiseb128: we don't, policykit-gnome hasn't been installed by default for several weeks already18:04
seb128policykit-gnome: /usr/bin/polkit-gnome-authorization18:04
seb128pitti, it doesn't get cleaned on upgrade then18:04
pittiright18:05
seb128maybe it should?18:05
* pitti checks rdepends18:05
pittiwe ought to demote it18:05
pitti-- karmic/main i386 deps on policykit-gnome:18:05
pittignome-mount18:05
seb128should that be demoted too?18:06
pitti-- karmic/main i386 deps on gnome-mount:18:06
pittilibnautilus-burn418:06
pittia-haa18:06
seb128dito18:06
pittican we drop that?18:06
seb128yes or demote it rather18:06
seb128hum   python-nautilusburn18:06
pittiI meant, drop the "Recommends: gnome-mount (>= 0.4)" and demote the two18:06
seb128no18:06
seb128gnome-python-desktop still build bindings...18:06
seb128we can probably stop building those18:07
seb128but it's a bit short before karmic now18:07
seb128can we just make update-manager uninstall those on upgrade?18:07
seb128those = gnome-mount + policykit-gnome18:07
pittiseb128: why can't we demote those two ^ ?18:07
seb128oh, I misread what you wrote18:08
seb128we can18:08
seb128yeah, just change the recommends to suggests18:08
seb128and demote18:08
pittiand drop the recommends from libnautilus-burn18:08
seb128+118:08
pitticool18:08
seb128sorry for being slow there18:08
pittinp18:09
seb128that will still not update-manager clean those though18:09
* pitti -> dinner18:09
pittiseb128: if they are in universe, it will18:09
seb128we need mvo to do that for us18:09
seb128pitti, no it won't18:09
seb128I asked mvo some days ago18:09
pittimain->universe packages should be offered for cleanup18:09
pittimvo: ^ no?18:09
seb128he said we have no way to know if user are using the softwares18:09
pittiseb128: ok, if not, then it seems we need to beg mvo indeed18:09
seb128so we don't do that automatically18:09
pittiseb128: we could also just introduce a synthetic conflicts: in policykit-1-gnome18:10
seb128let's get dinner and talk with mvo tomorrow18:10
seb128or later18:10
pittiok; it's on my todo list now18:10
kalon33pitti, seb128 : what is the new way to manage such authorizations we used to manage with it in Jaunty ?18:10
kalon33thanks for your help18:10
seb128no gui that I know about no18:10
kalon33bon appétit seb128 :)18:11
seb128kalon33, thanks18:14
chrisccoulsonkalon33 / seb128 - i'm sure i read a blog (i think from davidz) that said there probably wouldn't be a replacement graphical tool for managing authorizations18:16
chrisccoulsoni think the plan is to merge stuff like that in to a new user accounts tool18:16
seb128chrisccoulson, ok, works for me, that makes sense18:16
chrisccoulsonyeah, it makes more sense rather than having a standalone tool18:17
chrisccoulsonand we need a nice user accounts tool anyway:)18:17
kalon33chrisccoulson, it would be a shame not having any gui to manage it easily though18:17
kalon33but if we have a new user accounts tool which integrates it it would be great18:17
chrisccoulsonkalon33 - i agree, but having a stand alone tool is not the best way. that sort of thing should be part of a user accounts tool, as you're essentially managing user privileges18:18
mclasenchrisccoulson:  yeah, we want it to be very simple, though; mostly just two or three profiles (admin vs regular user vs guest)18:18
mclasendavid added the necessary support for profiles/roles/whatever to polkit18:18
chrisccoulsonmclasen - thanks, that makes sense18:19
chrisccoulsoni'm glad i didn't just dream about reading it somewhere;)18:19
kalon33^^18:20
kalon33I really look forward such a great tool will wait to test it ;)18:24
chrisccoulsonpitti - devkit-disks thinks my thumb drive is an ipod ;)18:30
kalon33pitti, I've another question : the python-zopeinterface is marked local or obsolete in Ubuntu whereas it is somehow linked with apport and we can't uninstall it18:31
seb128chrisccoulson, lucky you, gvfs thinks my ipod is a standard storage18:35
chrisccoulsonheh, it seems there must be some logic reversed somewhere ;)18:35
seb128chrisccoulson, no, pitti started looked at the ipod issue18:36
chrisccoulsoncool18:36
seb128the gdu backend doesn't seem to know about audio players18:36
seb128chrisccoulson, https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2450018:39
ubottuFreedesktop bug 24500 in detection "need property for music players" [Normal,New]18:39
chrisccoulsonseb128- thanks, i'll subscribe to that18:40
chrisccoulsoni really need to learn how all this stuff works18:42
seb128same here18:43
chrisccoulsonit's just difficult to find the time to be able to lock myself away for several days while i figure it all out ;)18:44
chrisccoulsonmaybe i should do that over the weekend!18:44
seb128chrisccoulson, or maybe you should just use weekends to do something else and not overwork ;-)18:51
chrisccoulsonyeah, maybe18:52
chrisccoulsoni don't like not understanding things though ;)18:52
chrisccoulsonpitti - is there a typo on 95-devkit-disks.rules?18:53
chrisccoulsonshouldn't ENV{ID_MEDIA_PLAYER}="?*", ENV{DKD_PRESENTATION_ICON_NAME}="multimedia-player" be:18:53
chrisccoulsonENV{ID_MEDIA_PLAYER}=="?*", ENV{DKD_PRESENTATION_ICON_NAME}="multimedia-player"18:53
chrisccoulsoninstead?18:53
chrisccoulsonit seems that every device i plug in ends up with the attribute"ID_MEDIA_PLAYER=?*"18:53
mvoseb128: hi, policykit-gnome and gnome-mount?18:54
mvoseb128: those two need removal?18:55
seb128mvo, yes18:55
mvoseb128: I add them now18:56
mvoseb128: is there any use-case left for them? or should they go away in any case?18:57
mvo(i.e. removal upfront or as part of the obsoleted packages)18:57
seb128mvo, I don't think there is any use for those no18:57
seb128they are deprecated techs18:57
* mvo nods18:59
mvoseb128: thanks for the gtkbuilder discussion19:09
seb128mvo, you're welcome19:10
seb128mvo, I suggest changing the char to be utf8 in the .ui for karmic19:10
seb128and doing a call for translation updates19:10
mvoseb128: I wonder if I should just write a "def _(s) if "..." in s: s.replace()19:11
mvoseb128: switching to utf8 in the ui file is not ideal as gtkbuilder keeps changing it back19:11
mvoso a single "save" and its gone19:12
seb128mvo, debian patch for it ;-)19:12

kwwiilool: yes, now I get your point21:50
kwwiilool: thanks21:50
seb128dobey, btw do you have a recommendation about what to do about not translatable strings due to utf-8 escaping in gtkbuilder issues?21:50
dobeyseb128: for karmic? not sure. is there a list of known affected packages?21:51
seb128chrisccoulson, those are in the milestoned list but not sure they would interest you, there is a file-roller crash which get quite some duplicates on karmic21:51
chrisccoulsoni can take a look at the file-roller onw21:51
seb128chrisccoulson, the other issue is an appearance capplet crash in pango function happening on theme install21:51
seb128chrisccoulson, that one is there for several cycles and collect a zillion duplicate21:51
seb128chrisccoulson, otherwise there is also gnome-panel hanging with > 8 tasks on vertical layouts21:52
chrisccoulsonyeah, i'll have a look and see if i can figure anything out21:52
seb128chrisccoulson, thanks ;-)21:52
seb128dobey, not that I know about no, there is 2 strings in software-center and 1 in gnome-bluetooth21:53
seb128dobey, I think we should edit the .ui with a text editor and change the string to be the utf-8 one there for karmic21:53
dobeyseb128: that sounds reasonable to me21:53
seb128dobey, but if you have a better suggestion feel free to tell us ;-)21:53
seb128ok, thanks21:53
dobeyseb128: i don't have a better suggestion of fixing for karmic. proper fix will require new glade3, new intltool, and new releases of whatever modules are affected21:54
dobeyso no small feat, and i'm busy enough right now with the critical issues in ubuntuone :)21:55
seb128ok, let's do the ui editing for karmic21:55
pittichrisccoulson: don't worry, we've got plenty :)21:55
seb128and aim at fixing that properly for karmic+121:55
dobeyseb128: yeah, it's not a hard fix, so it could probably be fixed for karmic-updates (2.28.x)21:56

rickspencer3dobey, so what's the deal with files on folks desktops being marked as synced with U1?22:03

robert_ancellseb128, it's because we added xsplash - it has focus and when it closes there was no toplevel window for metacity to give focus to.  The bug was always present when closing the accessibility dialog22:38

chrisccoulsonpitti - yeah, can do23:19
rickspencer3note that robert_ancell and seb128 will be quite busy with this next week23:19
pittichrisccoulson: *hug*23:19
rickspencer3so no assigning bugs to robert_ancell at all hours for rickspencer3 during this time23:20
robert_ancelli wish it was gnome update day every day ;)23:20
rickspencer3seriously, we should all help with gnome by not overloading seb128 and robert_ancell, and23:20
rickspencer3anyone with spare cycles can pitch in and help23:20
* chrisccoulson hugs pitti23:20
* TheMuso will have a few GNOME packages to update as well for that23:20
rickspencer3thanks TheMuso, good to remind us23:21
rickspencer3any questions about gnome updates next week?23:21
TheMusono23:21
TheMusoI'll be on hand to upload robert_ancell's stuff during the day as well, I'll make sure of it.23:21
rickspencer3TheMuso, great!23:21
rickspencer3next we discussed bugs23:22
rickspencer3first, looking at targeted and High bugs, not too many left23:22
rickspencer3though asac is finding bug 435073 a bit of a tough nut23:22
ubottuLaunchpad bug 435073 in network-manager "NetworkManager 0.8 can not get IPv4 address for wired Auto connections because IPv6 fails" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/43507323:22
rickspencer3and bryce's xorg work, and Kubuntu issues were not on the list23:23
TheMusoRight.23:23
rickspencer3so, what bugs are you guys working on that aren't on the list?23:23
* bryce perks up23:23
=== robbiew is now known as robbiew-afk
* bryce waves and returns to patch review23:24
robert_ancellguest session fixes 42595223:24
robert_ancellbug 42595223:24
ubottuLaunchpad bug 425952 in gdm-guest-session "gdm requiring password for guest session" [High,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/42595223:24
robert_ancellhey bryce, my text mode no longer works, if update doesn't fix that I might be bugging you :)23:24
brycerobert_ancell, sure just be sure to do `ubuntu-bug xorg` first23:25
rickspencer3ok, TheMuso, I see from your activity report and also your uploads you've been busy23:25
rickspencer3TheMuso, are there particular bugs that still worry you, such as that crasher in speech dispatcher?23:25
brycerobert_ancell, (also, be aware its probably a kernel drm bug)23:25
TheMusorickspencer3: Yeah, and got one more big thing to nail today.23:25
TheMusorickspencer3: Its not worrying me to the point where I feel its almost a release blocker or anything, but one bug has come up that was due to dtchen overlooking an important piece in fixing volume restore issues. Bug 44958923:26
robert_ancellbryce, yes I'm assuming it's just a temporary issue which is why I'm waiting for the update (text mode seems to break quite frequently during upgrades)23:26
ubottuLaunchpad bug 449589 in alsa-utils "Alsa mixer Master Front volume resets to minimum on startup" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/44958923:26
TheMusorickspencer3: I intend to target that and fix it today.23:26
chrisccoulsonright, time to look at file-roller crasher now23:26
rickspencer3noted23:27
rickspencer3ok, there's a couple of bugs that tkamppeter is working on that look rather serious23:27
rickspencer3bug 35997523:27
ubottuLaunchpad bug 359975 in gtk+2.0 "evince sometimes yield error "Error printing: Too many failed attempts"" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/35997523:27
rickspencer3and bug 41914323:27
ubottuLaunchpad bug 419143 in evince "Printing from evince (and perhaps other GTK apps) to PostScript printers is broken" [High,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/41914323:27
rickspencer3robert_ancell, could take a look at 359975 *after* you crack the guest login nut?23:28
rickspencer3It's a totally weird bug, and something tells me that you might bring a fresh perspective23:29
robert_ancellrickspencer3, ok, will do23:29
rickspencer3robert_ancell, from the upstream bug:23:29
rickspencer3And others confirmed that moving the mouse while focusing evince works 100% of23:29
rickspencer3the time. Don't laugh.23:29
rickspencer3so if you wave the mouse around while the document is spooling, it works23:29
TheMusoROFL23:30
rickspencer3well, by "you" I mean user effected by this bug23:30
rickspencer3this might be one of those "won't print on Tuesdays" bugs23:30
robert_ancellweird...23:30
rickspencer3indeed23:30
rickspencer3upstream seems similarly mystified23:30
chrisccoulsonpitti - do you want to upload another g-p-m change then? :)23:30
pittichrisccoulson: yep, and also adding a git-formatted patch to upstream bug23:31
rickspencer3but printing pdfs seems rather a common scenario to me23:31
chrisccoulsonthanks23:31
TheMusorickspencer3: agreed23:31
rickspencer3ok, any other business?23:31
chrisccoulsonpitti - can you not commit yet?23:31
tkamppeterbug 359975 should get a nice place at the side of the "OOo does not print on Tuesdays" bug in the Ubuntu history ...23:31
ubottuLaunchpad bug 359975 in gtk+2.0 "evince sometimes yield error "Error printing: Too many failed attempts"" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/35997523:31

robert_ancellbryce, how do you know how to check what radeon card series you have (R300/R400 etc)23:43
robert_ancellpitti - bug 450707 - I didn't mark these as translatable as it was past string freeze. But they're already translated, does it need a freeze request?23:43
ubottuLaunchpad bug 450707 in gdm ""Suspend", "Hibernate", "Restart" and "Shut Down" options in login screen shows untranslated, albeit they're translated" [Low,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/45070723:43
pittirobert_ancell: they should be translatable, yes23:44
pittirobert_ancell: that's just a bug fix, doesn't need an exception23:44
robert_ancellpitti, ok, thanks23:44
