boulabiarany hints on how to get into gfx mode with the last .38 ?03:45
bbordwellboulabiar, natty support is in ubuntu+103:46
TheMusoboulabiar: Are you sure that it boots ok with the previous kernel?03:47
boulabiarI am in the .37 now03:47
boulabiarTheMuso, i have no more acceleration after the upgrade, but I have gfx03:47
bbordwellboulabiar, are you using open source driver03:47
TheMusoboulabiar: WHich .38 kernel fails to work?03:48
boulabiarbbordwell, it should, but maybe there are some boot option which are messed by the upgrade03:48
boulabiarall of them03:48
boulabiar.38-1 to .38-403:48
bbordwellboulabiar, can you boot into classic desktop, it is just unity that is not working?03:49
boulabiarI am in classic desk.03:49
boulabiarin .38 I don't have even gdm03:50
boulabiarthe screen blinks many times, then I keep with the textual bootlog03:50
boulabiarit may come from a bad line in grub option or whatever03:51
bbordwellboulabiar, you could test to make sure its not a configuration problem by trying to boot on the daily cd03:52
boulabiaris there any easier option than that ?03:53

boulabiarI have the last sys. upgrade03:53

boulabiarthe ntrig Pen segfaults X04:06
RAOFThat sounds like a call for RAOF :/04:07
boulabiarI don't need the pen at least for this week, is there a way to disable it ?04:08
RAOFRemove xserver-xorg-input-wacom will do it.04:08
* boulabiar or rmmoding all the ntrig ?04:09
boulabiarok04:09
boulabiarI can't remove wacom without removing input-all04:09
RAOFinput-all is just a metapackage, you can happily remove it (for now, at least)04:10
boulabiarI will still have my mouse and keyboard ?04:11
RAOFAs long as you don't remove any other xserver-xorg-input-* packages, yes.04:12
boulabiargreat, removed04:12
RAOF(Particularly: -evdev for keyboard and external mice, -synaptics for touchpads)04:12
* boulabiar rebooting04:13
boulabiarRAOF, thanks man, now I am in .38-404:16
RAOFHm.  And now I wonder how many more wacom problems we have :/04:16
TheMusoheh04:17
boulabiarthe strange thing is that I don't have the hibernate option04:18
boulabiarthat option disappeard everywhere after an upgrade04:19
boulabiarmy ntrig pen still supported !04:25
boulabiardoes the wacom problems came because of double loading with evdev or am I mixing things04:26
boulabiarohhh04:28
boulabiarI have no more multitouch !! Only single touch with my ntrig screen and magic ttchpad04:28
RAOFevdev will drive everything, if you let it.  It just doesn't do fancy things.04:29
RAOFAlthough multitouch should stwill work with your magic touchpad - I don't know why it doesn't.04:29
boulabiarRAOF, I think it should be handled by synaptics, I will ask Chase about it04:36
boulabiarhmm, I don't have sound applet, and the sound-input still broken...04:39

pittibonjour didrocks, ca va?08:05
didrockspitti: excellent, thanks :) and you? how was your long week-end?08:05
pittididrocks: really wonderful, thanks! sauna, swimming, strolling through the "Spreewald", massage, 4 course menus, and no computer08:06
didrockswaow! ;)08:06
didrocksso, totally relaxed? :)08:07
pittihow was your's?08:07
pittiRAOF: I suppose we can move https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/multimedia-desktop-n-xorg-multihead-defaults to 11.10 at this point?08:09
broder:(08:10
didrockswell, with Julie not there for the week-end, I was thinking writing a short script for dealing with unity bugs in 2 hours, which ended in few more hours. But at least, we'll win a lot of time from now on :)08:10
pittichrisccoulson: is the status of https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/packageselection-desktop-n-thunderbird-messaging-indicator current? if so, I suppose we should move that to o?08:18
chrisccoulsonpitti - feel free to move that. m_conley from mozilla is working on that atm08:18
pittichrisccoulson: also, can you please give me a heads-up for PGO? are we going to do that for natty, or is it too unstable?08:19
pittichrisccoulson: oh, good morning!08:19
chrisccoulsonpitti - it's too unstable right now08:19
chrisccoulsonand good morning too :)08:19
pittichrisccoulson: did you ever benchmark a PGO build?08:21
RAOFpitti: Yeah, we can.  We're not going to have the new gnome-control-centre, and it's not worth doing the work twice.08:21
pittii. e. is it actually worth it?08:21
pittiRAOF: *nod*, thanks08:21
chrisccoulsonpitti - i did run a PGO build for a bit, but didn't get a chance to do any proper benchmarks. i didn't notice it being that much quicker though08:21
chrisccoulsonbut it was quicker to crash ;)08:22
pittiheh08:22
pittichrisccoulson: so I'll move it to o for now, and around UDS we can reconsider whether to keep or ditch08:22
chrisccoulsonpitti - i guess most of the WI's for -thunderbird-messaging-indicator can be closed actually08:23
chrisccoulsonthat ended up being a catch-all for some of my other tasks, which i've already done08:23
pittichrisccoulson: oh, nice! mind to update the spec?08:23
chrisccoulson(ie, globalmenu integration and turning on breakpad for tbird are all done)08:23
pittiI'm currently revisiting our status for the FF on Thursday08:23
chrisccoulsonyeah, i can update that08:23
pittichrisccoulson: thanks; ah right, it also has the menubar stuff, not just the msg indicator08:24
chrisccoulsonyeah, there wasn't really any other spec i could track that in, so it just got dumped there ;)08:24
chrisccoulsonnice, i've closed quite a few WI's since last week now :)08:25
fta2pitti, hi, would be nice if apport was able to move the crash files away (or rename them) once they've been reported (or rejected)08:26
chrisccoulsonfta2 - are you getting the constant crash dialogs too? ;)08:26
chrisccoulsonkillall update-notifier ftw ;)08:26
pittifta2: they shouldn't trigger new crash dialogs, though, do they?08:28
pittionce update-notifier displayed a crash notification, that same .crash file should never bring up a notification again08:29
pittiunless you have "noatime" on /var/crash/08:29
chrisccoulsonpitti - i seem to get the same sequence of crash notifications repeatedly every time something crashes08:29
fta2chrisccoulson, for once, no, i'm not getting this one. but i've got a few dozen crashes in the last few days, reported some of them, but it's getting difficult to track; so i'm not manually renaming the crash files08:29

didrockspitti: just a note on the alt + tab switch patch. I'm getting smspillaz's point of view (should be downstream for him), but as I want to avoid one more dowmstream patch to compiz, I'm waiting on mpt who should have his say on HIG ;)08:43

pittididrocks: sounds good, please reassign the bug as you see fit; thanks!08:44
chrisccoulsondidrocks, yeah, i'm good thanks. had a nice relaxing long weekend :)08:45
Sweetsha1kpitti: Yes, it was great! I just would wish everyone would have voted like I did, but I guess that would defeat the purpose. ;)08:45
didrockspitti: I'll track it down to avoid noise and see then :)08:46
pittiSweetsha1k: ah, right; I was pretty surprised to see the result, hadn't expected any party to get the absolute majority these days08:46
pittiSweetsha1k: in the meantime we had a little war here in Dresden on Saturday :/08:47
Sweetsha1kpitti: So the platform of the not too serious APPD is becoming an reality? they wanted to make some areas (including Dresden) into "Gewalterlebnisparks" were the extreme right and the extreme left could fight themselves without bothering the rest of the population ...08:50
Sweetsha1ks/were/where/08:50
pittiSweetsha1k: it didn't get that far fortunately08:50
micahgpitti: that's one way to get the WI off the list :)08:53

seb128hey09:24
rodrigo_morning09:24
seb128hum, k, I stopped the retracers on friday to get some backlog and try retracing some xorg crashers by hang to see why retracing doesn't work09:25
seb128hey rodrigo_09:25
seb128pitti, why did you drop the wi for appmenu gtk3?09:26
pittiseb128: I thought we'd stay at GTK2 for natty and not ship GTK3?09:33
seb128pitti, in the default installation yes, we still want the GNOME3 ppa or universe things using gtk3 to work fine on unit09:34
seb128unity09:34
pittiah, so this is meant to be "build a separate appmenu-gtk3 package"?09:34
seb128yes09:34
pittihey seb12809:34
seb128hello pitti ;-)09:35
pittiseb128: I did some fixes to the retracers yesterday while I investigated Bryce's X.org retrace failures09:35
seb128pitti, right, that was in the "get the stack available for gtk2 and gtk3" items09:35
pittiseb128: and then restarted them, yes; shouldn't they be running?09:35
seb128pitti, oh, great, did you figure something?09:35
seb128pitti, I stopped them to have a chance to get some xorg crashes not retraced so I could try to retrace one by hand today09:35
pittiseb128: there was no exception in the log, it just looked like old locks after a reboot or so?09:35
pittiseb128: ah09:36
pittiseb128: well, current apport gets that right now (uploaded yesterday)09:36
seb128great09:36
seb128what was wrong?09:36
pittii. e. it will mark them as apport-failed-retrace and keep the core dump09:36
seb128just for xorg?09:36
pittiseb128: no, not a special case for xorg09:36
seb128:-(09:37
pittiseb128: the root cause was that apparently our gdb in the chroots is getting old (still the 6.8 karmic version)09:37
seb128that's only time to be able to debug the issue?09:37
seb128oh ok09:37
pittiand apparently fails to read some newer debug symbols09:37
seb128you really want to clean the retracing failed bugs09:37
pittiI now fixed it to properly detect that case and fail to create a crash signature and StacktraceTop09:38
seb128nice09:38
pittiseb128: I tried to upgrade to newer gdb, but still fails with that ominous error09:38
seb128that explains why some source packages only have the issue09:38
seb128great work!09:38
pittiseb128: bryceh's immediate request was to stop the retracer from removing the core dumps for those crashes, which happens now09:38
pittiunfortunately I wasn't able to really fix the gdb 7.x breakage yet09:39
seb128well that was because the retracing was broken09:39
pittiI tried natty fakeroot in real natty chroot, still fails09:39
seb128oh ok, so updating gdb was not enough...09:39
seb128well I think we downgraded by thn because the lucid version was producing broken retraces09:39
pittiseb128: I dind't update gdb in the end09:40
pittiit only produces useless traces09:40
pittithat needs some more time to debug, presumably a fakechroot bug09:40
seb128right09:40
seb128btw do you tag apport-failed-retrace only those who failed retracing with current packages09:41
seb128or also those who failed due to packages being outdated?09:41
seb128we probably don't want to keep the second case ones around as privates with the crash infos, etc09:42
pittiseb128: the latter are usually closed as invalid; I'm actually not sure whether they are also tagged09:42
seb128ok, I was just trying to figure if you changed that as well or not09:42
seb128pitti, thanks for the work on those ;-)09:42
pittiah, no, we don't tag the invalid ones as failed-retrace09:42
seb128great!09:43
seb128so it seems we just need someone to debug gdb now09:43
pittiright09:44
pittiand it would also be helpful to get back cron mail09:44
pittiapparently they are being sent into oblivion right now :(09:44
seb128that explains why I didn't get any email from those recently :-)09:46
seb128bah, gtk3 binaries got renamed, great that we didn't start using it in the default installation09:47
pittifrom the Debian merge?09:48
seb128pitti, correct09:49
seb128they renamed the binaries to match the soname09:49
seb128didrocks, you havea libopenjpeg mir assigned for some weeks, if you don't have time for it can you bounce it back to mterry so it's reassigned?10:02
didrocksseb128: yeah, it seems more reasonable. Not sure I can do a good work on this one (as the utouch-* stack came between it)10:02

nessitadidrocks, tedg: even if the scan is at start, currently we're getting 2 entries in the menu, even if we have a single file in /usr/share/indicators/messages/applications/14:43
nessitathat puzzles me :-)14:43
didrocksnessita: yeah, known bug for some items, I don't have handy though :)14:43
nessitadidrocks: so, is not me, is you? :-P14:43
nessitawhere 'you' is the message menu14:43
didrocksnessita: IMHO, yeah, it's in the messaging menu side  :)14:44
nessitaok, I'll restart this session to check if after package removal the entry is gone14:45
tedgnessita, didrocks, no it does file watches.  Chances are you have one in your home directory as well?14:47
nessitatedg: not at all14:48
nessitatedg: and we're having several bug reports for that14:48
tedgnessita, The two items is because you added a shortcut group.14:49
tedgnessita, If you only want it in the panel you need to do a "OnlyShowIn"14:49
nessitatedg: not sure what you're referring to. Is that related to the .desktop file?14:51
tedgnessita, Yes, it has an extra "Ubuntu One" shortcut in it.  That's why there's two "Ubuntu One"'s in the messaging menu.14:52
nessitatedg: you mean the "X-Ayatana-Desktop-Shortcuts=U1" entry?14:53
nessitatedg: or the [U1 Shortcut Group] entry?14:53
tedgnessita, Well, they work together :)14:55
tedgnessita, The Desktop-Shortcuts refers to the group name.14:55
nessitatedg: ok. You must know I'm not very skilled with this file, sorry for that. Shall I remove the  [U1 Shortcut Group]  section?14:56
tedgnessita, I'm not sure why someone put it there.  You should remove both if you want it gone.  If you just want it in the Unity panel you should add a "OnlyShowIn=Unity" to the shortcut group.14:57
tedgOr you could add groups that are more useful as well :)14:58
nessitatedg: we need it in the launcher Unity, and in the regular menu in non unity desktops14:58
nessitatedg: do you have some pointer for that last suggestion?14:59
tedgnessita, Uhm, there's a wiki page for it.  But I can't seem to find it....15:03
tedgnessita, Basically you can just put a list of items in the "X-Ayatana-Desktop-Shortcuts" entry.15:03
tedgnessita, Then make "Shortcut Group" for each one with a Name and an Exec line.  It'll do what ever you want.15:04
nessitatedg: sorry for being such an ignorant in this matter, I haven't dealt with .desktop file sin the past. WOuld you have an aexample I can look at?15:04
tedgnessita, /usr/share/applications/evolution.desktop15:04
nessitatedg: thanks :-)15:05
nessitaok, I'll reboot now15:06
Sweetsharkpitti: Another packaging question: debian build the openoffice.org (to libreoffice) transitional packages from the openoffice source, while we created those along the LO ones from that source package. Because of that we have f.e. a openoffice.org-3.3.1~rc1-1ubuntu1~ppa1 while debian has stoped at  openoffice.org-3.3.0-6. To keep stuff in sync we should do stuff as debian does. However  openoffice.org-3.3.0-6ubuntu1 would be superceded 15:16
Sweetsharkpitti: we would however never really resync as debian is likely to just go on with 3.3.0-X forever ...15:17
pittihm, tricky; we can't lower the version number15:18
pittiSweetshark: oh, this is only in the PPA? then we still can15:18
pittinatty still has 1:3.3.0-1ubuntu115:18
pittiSweetshark: so I think it'd be easiest to sync openoffice.org from Debian (that's *only* the transitional packages now, right?), and drop them from our LibO as well15:19
Sweetsharkpitti: yes it is only the transitionals15:19
pittiSweetshark: so, I think if we can sync it'd be easier; if we wuold have to modify the transitional oo.o source as well (perhaps we need different version numbers in the Conflicts: there, or have different/extra package names), then I'd say do whatever is easier for you15:21
Sweetsharki dont think we need differences in the transitionals. Even if, copying stuff over different repos (when rene makes a change upstream) would be errorprone.15:24
Sweetsharkshould i generate new transitionals for the ppa too (from openoffice.org packaging source)?15:26
pittiSweetshark: I don't think we need to be too concerned about upgrades from your PPA at this point (not at the price of having to modify the transitional packages from Debian)15:30
Sweetsharkpitti:15:34
Sweetsharkpitti: k15:34
gnomefreakwhat package would i file a bug on relating to gnome launcher panel in "ubuntu desktop edition" not sure if mutter, unity or what not15:45
seb128what do you call launcher?15:45
seb128could you describe the issue?15:45
gnomefreakseb128: the panel that holds the icons on the left side of screen15:45
seb128it's unity15:45
gnomefreakseb128: i cant remove some of the icons and at least 1 i add wont work15:46
seb128the special icons are not meant to be removable15:46
seb128i.e workspace, trash, places15:46
gnomefreakoh15:46
gnomefreakyeah those15:46
gnomefreakand the os icon15:46
seb128those are removable medias or other partitions being listed15:47
gnomefreakis there a way to customize an icon and fix it to panel15:47
seb128the same way they are listed in the gnome-panel places or nautilus15:47
seb128you can create a custom .desktop I guess15:47
gnomefreakoh i was just trying to add the weather applet and an irssi icon, but i will look into it. thanks15:48
gnomefreaki have people testing gnome-term sound since i lost it in the past week or so15:48
seb128you can't add applets to the unity launcher15:48
seb128there is an indicator-weather though in universe15:49
gnomefreakseb128: nor to the upper panel15:49
seb128no15:49
gnomefreakoh cool thanks ill install that15:49
gnomefreakthanks you have been helpful :)15:50
seb128you're welcome15:50
gnomefreaksorry seb one more question. how do i find the indicator-weather. its installed but not sure how to add it15:54
seb128tedg, ^15:56
seb128well indicators should be automatically loaded I think15:56
tedggnomefreak, It's in Accessories15:56
tedgseb128, Not app indicators.15:57
seb128tedg, oh, I assumed that would be a sysindicator for some reason15:57
gnomefreakok unity doesnt have Accessories menu, i dont see anything useful in control center. it is listed in Main Menu but the Main Menu is useless in unity16:01
seb128you can open the application place (bottom icon in the launcher)16:01
seb128then type weather to filter things16:01
gnomefreakoh weather thanks. i think i found a way to add a custom launcher to panel :)16:03
gnomefreaknope16:03
gnomefreakno == yes16:04
didrockspitti: did you notice anything with the launchpad API? like the status not changing with apport?16:06
didrocks(the bug status)16:06
gnomefreaki dont see anyway to launch weather. drag+drop clicking ect fails to load it. it is a running process but no gui for it16:07
didrockspitti: forget about it, you have to call lp_save() on each bug task, my bad16:08
ftagnomefreak, it's there, but without icon, so it's invisible, but still usable (if you find it). once configured, you'll have an icon.16:23
ftagnomefreak, see bug 72003016:23
ubot2Launchpad bug 720030 in weather-indicator "indicator invisible on first run" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/72003016:23
gnomefreakfta: i tried launching it 3 or 4 times and it runs as a process but doesnt show up. thanks ill look at bug16:24
tedgpitti, Will the python tests you added run without dbusmenu being installed?  Do we need to set some env variable to tell it to use the local GIR files?16:25
gnomefreakfta: well at least you got the icon to show up. is there a way to configure it without seeing it?16:25
ftagnomefreak, it won't start 3 or 4 times, they put a lock to only allow one instance (useful with that many unity crashes leaving everything behind)16:25
gnomefreakfta: i killed the process each time16:26
ftagnomefreak, just right click between the indicators, it's there somewhere (but difficult to locate)16:26
ftagnomefreak, have a look at my video in the bug16:27
gnomefreakyou have to right click between applets than move the cursor just a little bit16:27
gnomefreakfta: i did look at it16:27
ftai have indicator-applet-complete installed, so only one right click is needed16:28
vishSweetshark: hi, this iconset name is actually "Humanity" , not Human » http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/artwork/commit/?id=0065a1be62155147c202707e2e93019f10bbf13716:29
vishSweetshark: Human is a different icon set16:29
ftagnomefreak, you can also wait for the next update, they will fix this16:29
vishSweetshark: the older one until rev 10 is human » https://code.launchpad.net/~openoffice.org-human-icons/openoffice.org-human-icons/tango+human16:30
gnomefreakfta: thanks i got it :)16:31
vishSweetshark: so rev 11 is Humanity; while rev 10 is Human.. (yea, Ubuntu is crazy with the Human names ;p)16:31
gnomefreakok that is much better than the gnome-applet16:33
ftais it? not for me16:34
Sweetsharkvish: well, it was always called "human" in OOo/LO ...16:36
Sweetsharkand it is hardcoded like that in the source now.16:37
vishSweetshark: right, it was the Human icon theme earlier.. but ccheney did not rename it when he updated the icons, since he had to upload a new package(i suppose)16:37
gnomefreakfta: yeah i like it cause it lists most info you/i could want without opening up a dialog window16:37
gnomefreakmoving it would be nice16:38
vishSweetshark: that would have meant uploading a new package and then moving it to main. and i think he just went for the quickest way..16:38
gnomefreakfta: does forcast work for you? i cant get it to work here16:38
vishSweetshark: you'd see this in the copyright » "combination of humanity-icon-theme and OpenOffice Industrial Icons"16:39
vishSweetshark: so, it really doesnt matter much to me, but just wanted to let you know the copyrights are a mismatch there :)16:39
vishand i dont know anything about the legalities :)16:40
Sweetsharkvish: do you really want to rename the package, create transitionals and all that jazz, and do the same upstream?16:40
ftagnomefreak, it does, mostly16:40
vishSweetshark: well, i dont know about the copyright issues, but if someone later asks why humanity authors have been named as the authors of Human icon theme, atleast i thought i'd let you know ;)16:41
gnomefreaki cant get it to open forcast maybe i set something wrong16:42
Sweetsharkvish: I dont thing, I dont think the legal stuff is problematic (although it would be great to have the icons as LGPL/MIT as the rest of LO).16:42
gnomefreaknope oh well for now it works that is my main concern :)16:42
vishSweetshark: cool! OK..  or if human authors say that the icon theme is not human, just a headsup16:43
Sweetsharkvish: Well, I somebody comes up with the old "human" theme, we might get a problem, true.16:44
Sweetsharkvish: But before I hack around _that_ in the LO source, I will implement a generic theming in LO so that there is no need to hardcode anything into LO. Then every style can give itself a name (in the zip file or whatever) and the problem is gone (modulo packaging names etc.).16:46
vishthat sounds awesome!! :)16:46
* vish hopes someone fixes the theming issues in LibO too.. ;)16:47
Sweetsharkvish: But first lets get a halfway decent 3.3.1 release into natty ;)16:47
vish:D16:47
gnomefreakfta: you hae to exit the indicator than restart it to use forcast16:49

didrocks118:38:27      didrocks | vish: hope you liked the spam ;)17:39
vishhehe! :)17:39
didrocks1vish: more seriously, I wrote a script over the week-end to help syncing bug state for unity and all related component, with the unity rules we have :)17:40
didrocks1the first sync is of course… spammy, even if I tried to reduce the initial noise (don't sync fix released bugs and such)17:40
vishah! see i knew that couldnt have been done by a human changing one bug at a time ;p17:40
didrocks1no, 3s by bug isn't possible ;)17:40
vishdidrocks1: just to make sure.. for Bug #721121 you'll be adding a new .desktop file in unity that uses the home icon?17:41
ubot2Launchpad bug 721121 in unity "Icon in Launcher should be home folder icon" [Undecided,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/72112117:41
didrocks1vish: also, you probably didn't see that it opened 240 bug tasks as well17:41
vishyea..17:41
didrocks1vish: ok, on this one, I really don't know, did you read mark's comment?17:41
vishdidrocks1: right, he wants to update that icon to something else _and_ he wants the home icon on the launcher17:42
vishso 2 bugs17:42
vishdidrocks1: for updating the icon we already have another bug17:42
vish neither me nor DanRabbit have any idea what to change it to.. :(17:43
didrocks1vish: right, but I don't know with the current bamf how we can separate the "nautilus.desktop" pointed icon and the launcher displayed17:43
=== didrocks1 is now known as didrocks
vishdidrocks: there was something mentioned about nautilus-unity.desktop17:44
didrocksvish: in the future, bamf will be able to do that, hopefully (based on tab support), but for now, hum :/17:44
didrocksvish: right, but I'm afraid that whe you start it, you will be matched against nautiuls.desktop17:44
didrocksvish: this need a try :)17:44
didrocksthere was a hook for that case in maverick, not sure it survived natty though17:45
vishdidrocks:  ok , pls give it a try first and then we'll see if that doesnt help :)17:45
vishits not too much work for me, but then i'd get bug saying wrong icon displayed here and the sort..17:46
vishbugs*17:46
didrocksvish: I understand totally, not sure I'll have time to do a proper test right now, so if you want to speed up things… :)17:46
vishwe should get jcastro to bitesize it ;)17:47
vishoh it is already one..17:47
didrocksright, so maybe just post a proposed solution to sum up it and then, see if someone can test that :)17:49

chrisccoulson(can't remember which though)20:59
