klattimer | hey, I'm having a problem with updates in maverick | 10:03 |
klattimer | the ubuntu-desktop package wants to remove Xorg | 10:03 |
lucidfox | o_O | 10:04 |
klattimer | :/ thinking this is a little weird | 10:04 |
lucidfox | Could you pastebin the exact output of apt-get? | 10:04 |
klattimer | well, ubuntu-desktop wants to remove itself too for some reason | 10:04 |
klattimer | lucidfox sure, I'm just updating everything else and doing some installs | 10:04 |
klattimer | soon as I've done that I'll provide a paste of the stuff | 10:04 |
klattimer | lucidfox: nevermind, on the command line the packages are being held back | 10:17 |

Tiibiidii | hi, sorry if i ask this here, but it seems the ubuntu channel more closely related to unity | 12:06 |
Tiibiidii | where should i report a unity bug? | 12:06 |
Tiibiidii | here? https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity | 12:06 |
Tiibiidii | or here? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity | 12:07 |
Tiibiidii | the first one is upstream, so it should be better | 12:07 |
Tiibiidii | but it seems that only with the second one i can automatically upload my system's information with ubuntu-bug | 12:07 |
Tiibiidii | upstream seems to have sligthly more bugs (so, it seems more used and more relevant) | 12:08 |
Tiibiidii | downstream seems to have more new bugs... but this may be a symptom that the developers pay more attention to the upstream bug tracker | 12:09 |

Tiibiidii | i've also an intel card and i'm refraining to update | 12:26 |

klattimer | davidbarth, kenvandine are either of you aware of any memory leaks currently affecting libdbusmenu-glib? | 14:58 |
klattimer | I think I've found some and want to avoid duplicates where possible | 14:58 |
kenvandine | klattimer, i am not | 14:59 |
kenvandine | tedg, ^^ | 14:59 |
tedg | klattimer, Hmm, okay. I'm not aware of any. | 15:00 |
kenvandine | tedg, your code never leaks, right? | 15:00 |
klattimer | tedg: check out the valgrind log on https://bugs.launchpad.net/indicator-application/+bug/569273 | 15:00 |
tedg | kenvandine, Of course. By design. I just free memory randomly just in case ;) | 15:00 |
ubot5 | Launchpad bug 569273 in Application Indicators "memory leak in gnome-power-manager (affected: 58, heat: 305)" [Medium,In progress] | 15:00 |
klattimer | it really seems it's libdbusmenu-glib | 15:00 |
tedg | klattimer, Yeah, so ayan has a small GTK program that creates and destroys menus and causes a leak in GTK... | 15:01 |
tedg | Not that dbsumenu isn't at fault also :) | 15:02 |
klattimer | tedg: ah, that was my second guess | 15:02 |
tedg | But, I think that there more than one contributor there. | 15:02 |
klattimer | yeah, there's lots of small ones in gtk | 15:02 |
tedg | I think it's caused by the fact that no one creates and destroys menus as rapidly as gpm does with that patch. | 15:02 |
klattimer | yeah, that's possibly one way to solve it | 15:03 |
klattimer | the issue is that it updates frequently | 15:03 |
klattimer | although I've heard some noise from your branches you have a signal for menu clicked now? | 15:03 |
tedg | I was talking to hughsie a while back and he was saying it depends on the battery firmware how often it updates. | 15:03 |
tedg | Which probably explains the variation of folks reporting things on the bug. | 15:03 |
klattimer | yeah, that was a bit of a question up in the air | 15:04 |
klattimer | so some people's battery goes like crazy updating the menu, others more leisurely but still gpm grows | 15:04 |
klattimer | :/ | 15:04 |
klattimer | maybe we can fix the gpm patch by hooking up to your menu clicked signal, and only updating the menu then | 15:05 |
klattimer | it would lessen the impact of the leak | 15:05 |
tedg | Or I was thinking just having it update the label instead of rebuilding the whole menu. | 15:05 |
tedg | It'd save dbus traffic as well. | 15:05 |
klattimer | that's another option | 15:05 |
klattimer | I'll look at doing it that way | 15:05 |
tedg | The valgrind log is interesting. | 15:05 |
tedg | I wonder if there's something of the wrong type so that hashtable isn't getting free'd. | 15:06 |
tedg | In theory dbus-glib should do that... but I don't have a huge amount of faith in it. | 15:06 |
klattimer | tedg: line number? | 15:06 |
tedg | klattimer, The last entry in the valgrind log. For properties_copy | 15:06 |
tedg | It allocated a hashtable which get's passed to dbus-glib. | 15:07 |
klattimer | yeah | 15:07 |
tedg | No, I think that serialze_menu item has a leak of that hashtable.... | 15:08 |
tedg | Uhg. | 15:08 |
davidbarth | klattimer: hi; thanks for checking that; do you think you could have a patch for maverick still? | 15:14 |
klattimer | davidbarth: what's the deadline | 15:14 |
davidbarth | ie, should i target that against the 10.10 milestone? | 15:14 |
davidbarth | well, the hard FF is this thursday | 15:14 |
klattimer | tomorrow? | 15:14 |
davidbarth | yes | 15:14 |
klattimer | OK, I'll do my best | 15:14 |
davidbarth | if the leak is severe, it should be commitable after that, or if not, as an SRU or Natty | 15:14 |
davidbarth | klattimer: cool, thanks for your help | 15:15 |
klattimer | davidbarth: this is probably fixable now | 15:17 |
klattimer | just looking at the code and in theory it's possible | 15:18 |
klattimer | oh | 15:18 |
klattimer | :/ | 15:18 |
klattimer | davidbarth: nope | 15:18 |
klattimer | it's not fixable quickly | 15:18 |
davidbarth | doh | 15:18 |
davidbarth | what's the issue | 15:18 |
klattimer | adding/removing devices requires a new menu to be created | 15:18 |
klattimer | so it's not just a matter of when the battery level changes, change the menu item | 15:19 |
klattimer | it all routes through the same portion of code for adding/removing and updating values | 15:19 |
klattimer | so the proper fix is to try and fix the libdbusmenu-glib issues, and possibly an upstream bug on gtk | 15:19 |
klattimer | davidbarth: bare in mind, the most major memory leaks are already fixed | 15:19 |
davidbarth | klattimer: so it's a minor leak | 15:21 |
klattimer | davidbarth: in theory it's only minor | 15:22 |
davidbarth | klattimer: if a gpm triggers the leak every 10s, how long for it to eat 10M, 100M? | 15:22 |
klattimer | 2Mb per hour is as high as I've seen it | 15:22 |
davidbarth | so 48MB a day | 15:22 |
klattimer | give or take | 15:22 |
klattimer | but as tedg says, it's dependent on battery firmware | 15:22 |
davidbarth | but for HW that is really verbose | 15:22 |
davidbarth | right | 15:22 |
klattimer | davidbarth: https://bugs.launchpad.net/indicator-application/+bug/569273 comment #53 has some details | 15:23 |
ubot5 | Launchpad bug 569273 in Application Indicators "memory leak in gnome-power-manager (affected: 58, heat: 305)" [Medium,In progress] | 15:23 |
davidbarth | makes sense for an SRU if that can't get into the release within the next 2 weeks (RC) | 15:23 |
klattimer | maybe you want to reassign to libdbusmenu-glib for now? | 15:24 |
tedg | klattimer, I think there's two bugs. | 15:25 |
tedg | klattimer, The one there with the hashtable, but it's in a new function we only started using a lot in Maverick. | 15:25 |
klattimer | tedg: in libdbusmenu and gtkmenu? | 15:25 |
tedg | klattimer, I think the leak above it in the valgrind log is the same one that was in Lucid, which is the gtkmenu one. | 15:26 |
tedg | klattimer, So Maverick made it worse, but it's still a problem :) | 15:26 |
klattimer | has the gtkmenu bug been upstreamed yet? | 15:26 |
klattimer | do you have details/ayan's test code? | 15:26 |
tedg | klattimer, I believe that ayan hadn't found the leak 100% yet. Just had a small program to exercise it. | 15:26 |
klattimer | I could produce a decent valgrind log for upstream to gtk | 15:27 |
tedg | I'm not sure where ayan is on that... but certainly helping out there would be good. | 15:27 |
tedg | klattimer, Can you double check this for me? https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~ted/dbusmenu/hashtable_free/+merge/35540 | 15:29 |
klattimer | sure | 15:29 |
tedg | It passes the test suite, so it must be perfect :) | 15:29 |
klattimer | in serialize_menuitem | 15:31 |
klattimer | tedg: it looks good to me | 15:31 |
tedg | Cool. Thanks klattimer! One down :) | 15:32 |
tedg | A million more memory leaks to go :) | 15:32 |
klattimer | well, that'll probably solve the majority of the issue | 15:32 |
klattimer | heh | 15:32 |
klattimer | tracing memory leaks is sometimes like trying to walk on marbles | 15:32 |
klattimer | tedg: the good thing about fixing in libdbusmenu is that we save memory in a lot of apps | 15:34 |
klattimer | fixing in gtk would be better wins | 15:34 |
=== njpatel_ is now known as njpatel | ||
tedg | Yup. The more the code's used, the more each line counts. | 15:36 |
tedg | Might be an interesting metric to calculate using something like Ohloh's DB. | 15:37 |
* tedg needs interns | 15:37 | |
klattimer | heh | 15:40 |
Paddy_NI | Will indicator-appmenu be available for lucid at all? | 15:41 |
tedg | Paddy_NI, We have no plans to backport it, but someone could. I believe their are packages in the Unity PPA, but I don't believe they're up-to-date. | 15:42 |
tedg | there are.... | 15:43 |
Paddy_NI | Oh that would be nice | 15:43 |
* tedg apparently offended mpt with his misuse of "there" :) | 15:43 | |
Paddy_NI | As far as I can see there will be no need for the gnome-globalmenu project | 15:43 |
Paddy_NI | He another question, how much of the gnome global menu code did you use? | 15:46 |
Paddy_NI | *hey | 15:46 |
tedg | Paddy_NI, Not any, we have a different approach. Mostly using DBus which they weren't. So we talked to them to learn about the issues get ideas, but the code sadly wasn't useful. | 15:50 |
klattimer | tedg: would be nice of have an "application" menu as part of appmenu | 15:51 |
klattimer | i.e. the current application name | 15:51 |
klattimer | sort of bold... with window manager functions ;) | 15:51 |
klattimer | like a certain fruit company we all know and love | 15:51 |
tedg | klattimer, Yeah, we were just focused on getting the menus out for now. It'd be interesting to do something like that. | 15:52 |
tedg | klattimer, Not sure. It seems like it's a lot of duplication with the File menu in most Linux apps though. | 15:52 |
klattimer | it's a massive improvement over globalmenu anyway | 15:52 |
klattimer | well, file->quit never makes sense | 15:53 |
tedg | The problem is changing applications just sucks. I think we learned that with appindicators :) | 15:53 |
klattimer | yeah, I can see the problems | 15:53 |
klattimer | it's just not easy to say "look, this is a great api, and much better interaction, lets all switch" | 15:53 |
klattimer | and get people on board that way | 15:54 |
tedg | Yeah, unfortunately there's a perception problem we have there. Where any Canonical project is "not upstream" so therefore people sadly avoid dependencies. Hopefully that'll change over time :( | 15:55 |
Paddy_NI | tedg, Well I for one look forward to trying indicator-appmenu and Unity | 15:56 |
Paddy_NI | :) | 15:57 |
Paddy_NI | from what I hear the dbus approach is much better | 15:57 |
klattimer | Paddy_NI: it is and doesn't rely on deprecated gnome libs | 15:57 |
klattimer | so it'll survive the gnome 3 turmoil | 15:57 |
Paddy_NI | Excellent | 15:57 |
Paddy_NI | Was getting QT applications to work with it very difficult? | 15:59 |
tedg | agateau, ^ | 16:03 |
Paddy_NI | I was also wondering when application indicators land will the top panel in gnome be a little crowded on the netbook edition with the window controls and appmenu? | 16:03 |
Paddy_NI | It is just I have not seen a screenshot of this as yet | 16:04 |
agateau | Paddy_NI: we have a Qt implementation of dbusmenu and a Qt patch | 16:04 |
tedg | Paddy_NI, It depends on how many applications you run :) | 16:04 |

bratsche | Cimi: I'll pull down garnacho's branch and look at it. Ideally I want to be able to specify an RGBA color to background-color or foreground-color properties in the CSS. | 18:40 |
bratsche | If it doesn't support that, I'll just add it. :) | 18:40 |
ronoc | bratsche, so will I park this bug for now ? | 18:47 |
ronoc | i.e. can't be fixed until this rgba stuff lands | 18:48 |
bratsche | Uhh.. that doesn't look like an RGBA issue. That just looks like there are two slightly different colors being themed somewhere. | 18:49 |

bratsche | But I dunno. | 18:49 |
ronoc | Cimi, ^ | 18:50 |
ronoc | would it be possible Cimi that the bgnormal is slightly different in the theme compared against what is actually used to draw the border of the menu | 18:50 |
Cimi | ronoc: bratsche simply, the menu background has a horizontal gradient :) | 19:08 |
Cimi | it's not a flat bg[normal] | 19:08 |
