kamstruphi all08:25
kvalokamstrup: hey. how was your trip back home?08:33
kamstrupkvalo: ok thanks - no problems. How was yours?08:34
kamstrupyou met your connecting flight in Paris?08:34
kvalokamstrup: pretty good actually, I got three seats in the over atlantic flight! :D08:35
kamstrupkvalo: lucky bastard :-) I was crammed08:35
kvalokamstrup: plane late 10 mins, bus ride to the terminal and had to run all the way. but made it :)08:35
kvalokamstrup: I was sooo lucky. slept like 5 hours on the plane08:36
kvalowith three pillows and blankets I was able to create one proper pillow :)08:37
kamstrupSo if I have either Firefox or Thunderbird running I get the stacking bug not only in the indicators but also in any menus of all apps....08:38
kamstrupKnown bug?08:38
* kamstrup logs in to a legacy session08:39
seiflotfyhey guys08:46
smspillazalright #ayatana - I need someone who is not using xorg-edgers and someone who is using xorg-edgers to test something for me09:13
smspillazhover over a menu to reproduce the "my menu doesn't appear bug". When you hover over where the menu *should* be - I need to know if it appears and if you are using xorg-edgers or normal stock xorg09:14
smspillazdbarth: I found something interesting in compiz re all of this btw - onestone's got us hooked up to the damage handler twice for each drawable09:14
smspillazonce for the window pixmap and once for the window handle itself09:14
smspillazkamstrup: yeah it's a known bug - I'm working it out now09:15
smspillazkamstrup: it goes deep deep into Xorg - quite nasty09:16
kamstrupsmspillaz: ok, I just only ever saw it in the indicators :-)09:16
smspillazyeah09:16
kamstrupsmspillaz: ok, lemme know if there's anything I can do to help09:16
smspillazif it is annoying you so much where you don't mind losing window borders and click to focus you can manually disable reparenting :p09:16
kamstrup(leaving you alone is a valid answer ;-P)09:16
smspillazkamstrup: heh09:17
smspillazkamstrup: well actually09:17
smspillazkamstrup: what card do you have ?09:17
kamstrupsmspillaz: oh, it's the ever wonderful, super powerful, i94509:17
smspillaz(this bug is actually two different bugs manifesting as one)09:17
smspillazkamstrup: ok - can you reproduce the version of this where the menu doesn't appear, but if you hover over where it should be it does ?09:17
smspillazon newly created windows09:17
smspillazI thought I saw this on my intel machine today, but I might be delusional09:18
kamstrupsmspillaz: meh, so now I can't reproduce it at all anymore...09:24
smspillazkamstrup: it's a race condition, that's what makes it a pain :)09:28
* smspillaz just can't get over the look of those new icons in the launcher09:29
kamstrupyeah it does look awesome09:29
didrockssmspillaz: hey, we have people complaining about bug #704231. Is it the way compiz works when you assign a value to a grab key or is it a mistake in my code?09:42
ubot5Launchpad bug 704231 in unity (Ubuntu) "Unity steals <super> modifier key" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/70423109:42
smspillazdidrocks: if you grab the super key, the passive grab activates09:53
smspillazdidrocks: I think if you return false in your callback it will put back the ButtonPress event09:53
smspillaz*think*09:53
didrockssmspillaz: ok, so I should just return false?09:53
smspillazdidrocks: yeah, try that09:55
smspillazdidrocks: well return false when you didn't actually eat the event09:55
smspillazeg, pressing super when the launcher is *hidden* should return true, pressing it when it is already there should return false09:56
* smspillaz still thinks that launcher-on-super is a bad idea09:56
didrockssmspillaz: let's see how it goes09:57
smspillazdidrocks: ok09:58
didrockssmspillaz: I'm already returning false09:58
didrockssmspillaz: see in unityshell.cpp, with the showLauncherKeyInitiate and showLauncherKeyTerminate09:59
smspillazdidrocks: hrm ok10:00
smspillazdidrocks: is it a necesscity that it need to be the super key by itself10:00
smspillaz?10:00
smspillazsince this problem could easily be avoided if we just changed it to eg super-u or whatever10:00
didrockssmspillaz: that's how it's planned to work yes10:01
smspillazurhg10:01
dbarthAPI, rodrigo_: ping?10:01
didrockssmspillaz: like, if you then super + 0, you open the first element10:01
didrocksand such10:01
didrockssmspillaz: in any case, so returning false is already in the code10:01
APIdbarth, pong10:01
smspillazdidrocks: ok, well does the super key actually need to be opening the launcher ?10:01
didrockssmspillaz: no idea why compiz grab that?10:01
smspillazdidrocks: well I know that compiz grabs the key if you have an action set on it - that is what it is meant to do10:01
didrockssmspillaz: again, it's in the design10:02
smspillazbut grabbing an entire modifier tree is pretty greedy10:02
smspillazdidrocks: can we file a design bug? :p10:02
didrockssmspillaz: hum, you mean, super + 0 then won't work?10:02
didrockssmspillaz: seems more a compiz bug for me10:02
smspillazdidrocks: well super-0 will work10:02
smspillazif you set an action to super-010:02
dbarthAPI: skype?10:02
smspillazdidrocks: it's not really a compiz bug - the logical thing to happen here is that when you press the super key it will show the launcher and not do anything else10:03
APIdbarth, I made a upgrade yesterday, lets hope skype working today ;)10:03
APIdbarth, a mon, moving to other room10:03
smspillazdidrocks: I mean, I guess I could make a returning false action do XPutBackEvent10:04
=== _LibertyZero is now known as LibertyZero
didrockssmspillaz: that would be nice10:04
didrocksat least, we still have the option to prevent or not the action to be passed10:04
didrockssmspillaz: want a bug report for that?10:04
dbarthsmspillaz, didrocks: what's the status with the top-3 priority bugs btw?10:05
smspillazdbarth: still looking into this damage one10:05
smspillazdbarth: onestone did something weird in the damage tracking bits of opengl and *gasp* didn't document it10:05
didrocksdamage one?10:05
didrocksso the stacking issue is fixed?10:06
smspillazI haven't started on the stacking one10:06
didrocksdidn't you start on that last week?10:06
smspillazI started it and then saw that it was really 2 bugs in one10:06
dbarthsmspillaz: this needs to be your priority sam, it's a major regression10:06
smspillazdbarth: I'm aware :)10:06
dbarthsmspillaz: right, i saw your point about one bug actually being 310:06
didrockson the 3, there is still the crash at start, right?10:06
smspillazwith gconf ?10:07
dbarthi understand the 1st one is solved, but there are still 2 stacking and damage issues to solve10:07
didrocksyeah, with gconf10:07
smspillazdbarth: yes10:07
dbarthand then, there is the crasher10:07
smspillazdidrocks: yes that's on the radar - no time to start it yet10:07

=== njpatel_ is now known as njpatel
njpateldidrocks, hey dude, did your auto-maximise branch land for last week's release?11:08
njpateldidrocks, I'm still getting new windows at  near-maximised size but not undecorated11:08
ogradidrocks, hey, how is the jetlag ?11:11
njpatelawww11:14
spikebyou guys killed him!11:17
ograheh11:17
kvaloseb128: hi. do we have a maintainer for empathy?11:17
seb128hi, sort of, why?11:18
seb128the desktop team is doing updates, kenvandine and some community people usually11:18
kvaloseb128: there's an issue with connman, just about to file a bug. just wondering should I create a patch for it11:18
seb128why should empathy know about connman? I though the api to check online status etc where identic the n-m one?11:19
seb128or that there was a compatibility wrapper11:19
seb128well in any case it's not likely than anyone else will write a fix for connman so yeah you should do it if you want one11:20
kvaloseb128: the implementation in empathy uses libnm for some reason11:20
njpatelbecause it's nicer to use lib instead of dbus?11:20
seb128you can try asking on #empathy11:20
kvaloseb128: they support also connman, but there's only a compile time switch to enable it11:20
njpatel(not having a go, but just dbus is a crap API)11:20
seb128but it's likely what njpatel say, using a lib is nicer than using dbus calls11:21
kvaloyeah, but I doubt libnm is the best option here. most likely it does more than just checks the state11:21
kvaloI'll debug what's the problem with libnm11:22
* didrocks wants a working internet connexion :/11:45
didrocksnjpatel: re: automaximize branch: it landed last week, yeah. We have already some wishlist about an option to deactivate it11:46
didrocksnjpatel: do you think we should activate it depending on screen size?11:46
kvaloseb128, njpatel: yeah, libnm init does more than just checks the network state. seems to query available hw etc and no wonder it fails with connman11:47
njpateldidrocks, yeah, but we'll come to that in time :)11:49
njpateldidrocks, okay, i wonder why it isn't working for me :(11:50
njpatelkvalo, oh, yeah, libnm isn't the right thing to use, but was just saying that they probably when searching for a proper API11:50
kvalonjpatel: yeah. me, dbarth and kamstrup have been talking about implementing a proper network api for applications. I'm this > < close to writing one :)11:52
didrocksnjpatel: seems to work too well for some people :)11:53
didrocksnjpatel: the only check is > 0.6 of the screen and < 111:53
didrocks(and that it's a normal window && maximizable)11:54
njpateldidrocks, chromium doesn't seem to be automatically maximised :/12:04
=== oubiwann is now known as oubiwann_
didrocksnjpatel: only chromium? let me check. (I have to relaunch unity now because of bug #703140, I can't really use it anymore :/)12:05
ubot5Launchpad bug 703140 in unity (Ubuntu) "The whole screen is cleared to black when using the workspace switcher (wall plugin)" [Critical,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/70314012:05
didrocksnjpatel: chromium is working here…12:08
didrocksare you sure you have more than 60% of the workarea coverage?12:08
njpateldidrocks, yeah, it's basically maximised apart from the titlebar12:10
njpateldidrocks, I have "use system decorations" checked12:10
njpatelman, I'd pay money for my keyboard not to reset to en_US every flipping reboot12:11
didrocksnjpatel: I think I have the same option too (I have the unity-window-decorator), but I can't open the option menu because of the stacking issue… the window is undecorated and maximized there when I open it…12:12
didrocksnjpatel: I'll try to have a look12:14
didrocksI'm wondering why people using Scribes seem to have an issue with the automaximization (like, it's slowing down their system a lot…)12:15
njpateldidrocks, needs to redraw everything, probably12:15
didrocksnjpatel: yeah, I guess there are a lot of remapping happening… I'll try to confirm that. If so, we should maybe blacklist it?12:17
kamstrupcould someone review https://code.launchpad.net/~unity-team/unity/libunityectomy/+merge/46590 I'd really much like to land it today so we can get a new and separate libunity tarball out there12:19
ogradidrocks, sooo ... metacity12:19
kamstrupgord: maybe you have time for https://code.launchpad.net/~unity-team/unity/libunityectomy/+merge/46590 ? It would be relevant with your stamp on it if you are the one who's gonna rewrite the perf logger...12:22
rodrigo_njpatel, how do the unity branches land? is it running tarmac or does it need to be done manually?12:23
njpatelrodrigo_, manually right now, tarmac no workie12:23
didrocksogra: yes? did you install the patch and rebuild compiz against it?12:23
rodrigo_njpatel, can you then please merge this one -> https://code.launchpad.net/~rodrigo-moya/unity/a11y-global-listeners/+merge/46242 ?12:23

gordoh wait, its almost all deletions12:25
didrocksogra: yeah, that will at least enable you to see it doesn't break unity as well :)12:25
kamstrupgord: it should amount to simply removing libunity - so that's the main thing you should focus on12:27

ogra\sh, none yet, packaging is still being fixed up13:04
\shogra: hurry ;)13:04
rsalvetibut unity-2d-default-settings should install everything13:04

\shogra: kk13:05
ograso its uninstallable13:05
ograand my laptop is just upgrading to natty now until i can to a testbuild it will take a while13:05
\shogra: armel or x86?13:06
\shfor x86 and x86_64 I could help13:06
ograi guess didrocks only wants a test on x8613:06
didrocksI think that one test will be enough, right13:07
didrocksjust to ensure we don't see weird effects between sessions13:07
ogra\sh, metacity needs this patch http://paste.ubuntu.com/555098/ (drop the last line though)13:08
ograthen compiz needs to be rebuilt against the new metacity development libs13:08
ograand then unity (3d) needs to be tested with that13:08
rodrigo_yay, unity works for me now13:09
rodrigo_well, it starts, it's got a lot of non-working stuff13:09
\shogra: patch against metacity 1:2.30.3-0ubuntu2 ?13:10
ograagainst whatever is in natty13:10
\shkk13:10
ograthe original patch is from maverick13:10
ograi hope it applies cleanly13:10
ograwould be awesome if you could do that since my dist-upgrade might still take some hours13:10

smspillazkvalo: so for this menu issue - here's how you can help me debug it13:39
smspillazkvalo: sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager13:40
smspillazkvalo: enable the "Debug Spewer" plugin13:40
smspillazkvalo: change the "Spew debugging info (or whatever it is)" keybinding to whatever you want13:40
smspillazkvalo: now log out, log back in, reproduce the issue and then immediately afterwards press that keybinding13:41
smspillazkvalo: compiz will freeze for a few seconds and then unfreeze13:41
dbarthsmspillaz: and so not the damage issue, but the stacking one now, right?13:41
smspillazkvalo: after that, drop to a VT (still with the menu open) and DISPLAY=:0 xwininfo -root -all and DISPLAY=:0 wmctrl -l13:41
smspillazdbarth: correct13:41
dbarthsmspillaz: ie, click on a menu, see it's not visible and press the shortcut13:41
smspillazdbarth: yes13:42
dbarthok, trying that now13:42
smspillazdbarth: kvalo: but make sure it is the one where click on the menu, see it isn't visible, hover over the menu -> it still isn't visible13:42
smspillazand then paste or mail me the output :)13:42
smspillazoh13:42
smspillazone mor thing13:42
smspillazthe output for the "debug spewer" output is written to a file in /tmp13:43
smspillazcalled something like /tmp/compiz_state${PID}13:43
kvalosmspillaz: ok, working on that13:43
smspillazthanks13:43
kvalodamn, I think compiz crashed when I enabled the plugin13:44
* dbarth restart his session13:44
smspillazif anyone is feeling really nice, they could tell me how to get from a clean install to that bug, I would give them a cookie13:44
smspillazkvalo: yeah, it's a known bug for compiz to crash when enabling other plugins with unity enabled13:44
dbarthsmspillaz: it actually crashed compiz...13:49
smspillaz:/13:49
=== oubiwann is now known as oubiwann_
* dbarth restarts his session again13:50

smspillazah rats that's true13:51
smspillazit's because the menu has a grab13:51
smspillazkvalo: ok, just a second then13:51
smspillazkvalo: can you disable unity, enable dbus then enable unity ?13:52
smspillaz(in ccsm)13:52
smspillazwell, it will crash anyways, duh13:52
smspillaznjpatel: just an FTY - unityshell.cpp should destroy the nux input windows on unload13:53

cyphermoxnah... libnm really asks NM about the devices it knows13:57
dbarthimpossible to restart unity in debug mode13:57
kvalosmspillaz: at least dbus is now ticked in ccsm13:57
didrockssmspillaz: so, the super + m keybind don't work inside compiz as well? the super keybind is preventing that?13:57
dbarthand whenever i've tried the spew debugger, it crashed on me13:57
smspillazdidrocks: works fine13:58
dbarthi had set alt+super+ctrl as the keybinding13:58

\shsmspillaz: good to see you.,..is it correct, that xev doesn't output the Super_L keycode anymore under unity 3d?13:59

kamstrupdidrocks: sure14:10
didrockskamstrup: so, I want to update the stack in natty, what should I know?14:10
didrockskamstrup: all latest release is good? what about the fts extension?14:10
kamstrupdidrocks: the fts extension should be compatible14:11
kamstrupdidrocks: the latest release upgrades the internal DB schema, and there's no turning back14:11
lamalexIs there any design spec about multi-monitor?14:11
didrockskamstrup: that's done automagically on first start, right?14:12
didrockskamstrup: so, there is no patch to carry on? fts is still part of the extension tarball, isn't it? Should I ship another extension as well?14:12
kamstrupdidrocks: yeah, the DB upgrade is done automagically on first run14:13
smspillazdidrocks: yeah but the super key is handled weirdly in xkb and I bet we've got the wrong keycode modifier for it hardcoded in to compiz14:13

nmarquestedg, Ted, anyway I could have a minute with ya? There's one question I have around libindicate in which I believe you can help me (gobject-introspection related)15:37
tedgnmarques, Sure.  What's up?15:39
* tedg is not sure he can answer gobject-introspection questions, but will try.15:39
nmarquestedg, for the latest version of libindicate, has any special patch been applied to the gtk2 stack ?. I've managed to fix it for the previous version, but this one is breaking on locating CLI files15:41
tedgnmarques, No, I don't think so.15:45
tedgnmarques, We had to do some adjustments to the command line parameters for Natty, but that wasn't patching, just cleaning things up.15:46
nmarquestedg, ok. I'm just asking because I saw a bug report from someone at Frugalware which seems to be running against the same issue15:47
\shogra: metacity building...sorry for taking so long..but real live work as prio 1 :)15:47
ograindeed15:48
nmarquestedg, I'll take a closer look into this. If there's need for patching, I'll submit it.15:48
ogramy lappie is still on its was maverick -> natty :/15:48
ogra*way15:48
tedgnmarques, Great!  Thanks, sorry I'm not that familiar with the introspection stuff.15:49
\shogra: now...when metacity was build .. I have to rebuild compiz?with new libmetacity packages, right?15:51
ograyep15:51
\shogra: building..rushing home now will check a bit later if everything is ok..metacity build successfully16:23
ogracool16:23
ogradid the patch apply cleanly to the natty version ?16:23
ograor did you have to touch it16:24
\shogra: yes it applied and no i didn't :)16:24
ograawesome16:24
\shI'll fetch the buildlogs when I'm at home ...16:24
* \sh needs to fix the kitchen first...if not Madame Adig will be not amused ;)16:25
\shlaters...16:25
ograciao, and thanks a lot !16:25

rodrigo_API, ping17:02
rodrigo_njpatel, ping17:07
njpatelrodrigo_, hey hey hey17:08
rodrigo_njpatel, I have a few doubts on the panel stuff in unity17:08
rodrigo_there are Panel* classes in src and then the panel service in services/17:09
njpatelyep17:09
rodrigo_so, can you explain me what each does?17:09
njpatelrodrigo_, the panel service loads the indicators and their menus in a separate process, and then exports the state of the indicators (just the top row of labels/icons) as a model over D-Bus17:09
rodrigo_njpatel, ok, and then the Panel classes do the actual rendering of the panel, right?17:10
njpatelrodrigo_, Unity (src/Panel*) connects to this D-Bus daemon and renders the panel using this exported state. If something is clicked, it requests that the menu is shown (to the panel-service)17:10
njpatelrodrigo_, and then there is a bit of code either side to keep things in sync17:10
rodrigo_and why is it in a separate process?17:11
njpatelrodrigo_, so if the indicators crash, we can safely reload without having to crash compiz too17:11
rodrigo_ah ok17:11
njpatelrodrigo_, it was a common point of failure in the last Unity17:11
rodrigo_so, the panel service just manages the indicators?17:11
njpatelyep17:11
njpatelit might do more in the future, but that's it for now17:11
rodrigo_and the rest of stuff shown in the panel (home button, etc) is all managed in the Panel* classes?17:12
rodrigo_that is, no UI in the panel service?17:12
rodrigo_or rather, who owns the actual menus that are shown when you click on indicators?17:14
kenvandinetedg, yes it does appear to fix nm-applet17:15
tedgkenvandine, Sweet!17:17
kenvandinetedg, should i distro patch?17:17
kenvandinethat is kind of a nasty bug17:17
tedgkenvandine, Sure17:25
tedgkenvandine, It's a pretty safe patch17:25
kenvandinelooks like it17:25
kenvandinewill do17:25
jonotedg, are you experiencing issues with indicator menus not working today in Unity18:32
jononone of my indicators or menus are working18:32
kenvandinejono, you mean not opening menus?18:37
kenvandineor not loading?18:37
jonokenvandine, not opening18:37
kenvandineok, right click on the desktop18:37
jonoI can see the menus, I click them and they don't drop down18:37
kenvandinei think that is the stacking bug in compiz18:37
kenvandineif you right click on the desktop, it seems to kick it into gear18:38
jonokenvandine, aha!18:38
jonoI will check it out soon18:38
kenvandinejono, and if that doesn't work18:38
kenvandinelike a right click doesn't show you a right click context menu18:38
kenvandinechange workspaces18:38
kenvandineand right click again18:38
kenvandineit will work then18:38
kenvandinedon't ask me why... but sometimes i have to do that18:39
kenvandinevery annoying :)18:39
jonoheh18:39
kenvandineit's like the old TV antennas18:39
jonokenvandine, works now, thanks!18:39
kenvandinehold the wire, stand on one foot and stick your arm out ... and hold it to watch tv :)18:40
jonohaha18:40
kenvandineits kind of sad, my behavior has been altered... after logging in i automatically hit "ctrl-alt-left" then right click18:41
kenvandine:-p18:41
kenvandinewhoops... ctrl-alt-right18:41
kenvandinei'll never notice when the bug is actually fixed, i guess18:42
joaopintois that bug specific to natty's compiz / unity ?18:43
kenvandineyes18:43
kenvandinecompiz i think18:44
kenvandinebeen there for quite a while18:44
joaopintoI have a similiar issue with 10.10, at random boot the gnome2 menu does not respond to clicks18:45
joaopintoboots18:45
joaopintoI was unable to find a reason, cpu is low and no relevant error :(18:45
