RAOFWell, rejoice!  For I'm pretty sure I've just fixed it :)08:24
kvaloRAOF: nice!08:25
RAOFTurns out that if you calloc a vertex, normal, and texture array once per frame you should also be freeing it :)08:26

pirastis ubuntu unity a joke? i installed ubuntu netbook edition 10.10 and the performance is just poor.. how can this be published as a stable release?14:37
pirastor is there some trick to improve the performance of unity?14:37
coz_pirast,  well  in unity 11.04  compiz will take the place of mutter which is most likely on your 10.10 installation14:41
coz_pirast,  mutter is a hog last time I tried it so performance is  bad14:41
pirastcoz_ isn't there any way to make 10.10 usable for me?14:41
coz_pirast,  not sure,, I have never used the 10.10 netbook edition14:42
pirastcoz_ cause i actually dont want to use beta software on my netbook14:42
coz_pirast,  understood14:42
coz_pirast,  well...11.04 will be out near the end of April of this year14:42

pittihello all15:20
kenvandinehey pitti!15:20
OmegaHey!15:20
pittitedg: design team asked us to add a link to gnome-control-center to the session menu; can I do this in g-c-c itself via installing/changing .desktop files, or is that only hardcoded?15:20
tedgpitti, What do you mean?  Where does the link go?15:21
pittitedg: it should launch /usr/bin/gnome-control-center15:22
pittiand be called dgettext("gnome-control-center-2.0", "Control Center")15:22
pittitedg: I tried adding a shortcut group to /usr/share/applications/gnomecc.desktop, but that doesn't work15:23
tedgpitti, I mean, where in the menu should it go?15:23
tedgpitti, Yeah, session menu isn't very intelligent.  Most of the work that was supposed to go on in it this cycle got bumped :-(15:24
pittisee bug 72782315:24
ubot5Launchpad bug 727823 in gnome-menus (Ubuntu Natty) "Enable Gnome-Control-Center in Unity, and add "System Settings" link to the session indicator menu" [Medium,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/72782315:24

kenvandinepitti, i can do that if you like15:24
tedgpitti, Ah, okay.  That can actually be done with a desktop file :)15:24
tedgThough, it is a bit of an odd place to put it.15:25
danyRhey ayatana, what's the status on this? https://answers.launchpad.net/unity/+question/147623 I too have this question, workspace handling in unity is a total mess right now15:25
kenvandinetedg, oh, so it isn't all hard coded like indicator-me?15:26
kenvandinecool :)15:26
pittitedg: is there an existing example for this?15:29
tedgpitti, Ubuntu Light ;)15:29
tedgpitti, Just a sec, let me find the name.15:29
tedgpitti, The desktop file: /usr/share/applications/indicator-session-extra.desktop will be tacked on the end of the session menu.15:32
tedgpitti, Probably not ideal for what you want, but it'll work.15:32
pittitedg: ah, is that somewhere in bzr or on the web?15:35
tedgpitti, In bazaar15:36
tedgpitti, I'd like to make the feature more complete instead of being a "one magic desktop file" but haven't had time.  So I didn't want to advertise too much :)15:37
kenvandinetedg, did you see my IM about bug 72560315:38
ubot5Launchpad bug 725603 in libdbusmenu (Ubuntu) "cannot change IM status from the MeMenu" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/72560315:38
kenvandinetedg, it wouldn't be monday morning if i didn't have something to harass you about15:38
kenvandinetedg, i would be pretty surprised if indicator-me was the only thing affected15:39
tedgkenvandine, I did, but I dont' think you replied which branch so the revision number isn't that useful.  I see the comments is in the bug so I can find that :)15:39

kenvandinehello mainerror15:40
pittitedg: sorry for my ignorance, but searching for "ubuntu light" doesn't reveal anything in Launchpad15:40
seb128pitti, tedg: it seems like you should use that trick but let it available for whoever needed it and just add the .desktop to the session indicator source15:41
tedgpitti, Oh, I thought you did that work with OEM?  That's the respin for quick start.  Not sure if it still exists.15:41
mainerroris Jason in here?15:42

OmegaUnity should stop stealing focus, it gets in my way a lot. :<15:42
DBOyes I am15:42
pittitedg: I was only involved for some days for boot speed improvements, but I didn't really get any special credentials for that15:42
DBOOmega, I am getting annoyed with that too15:42
OmegaEverytime I tile I have to keep clicking on the window because if I move from the left to right unity steals focus.15:43
OmegaAlso, I love the tiling <315:43

mainerroroh hey there. Regarding this bitesize bug, the expo hide/unhide, you didn't mix that up right?15:43
DBOmainerror, no15:44

=== m_conley_away is now known as m_conley
tedgpitti, Ah, I don't know if it exists somewhere in LP or not.  I'm just saying you'd know more about where to find it than I would ;)15:45
kenvandinetedg, maybe you have an example elsewhere?15:46
pittitedg: ah, just looking at the code now; so it's just that one .desktop file, not a dir?15:46
OmegaAlright, I've got a consistent way of crashing compiz, let me report it.15:47
pittii. e. if we own that for Ubuntu then, it's not going to work for OEM any more15:47
tedgkenvandine, Nope :)15:47
pittitedg: so perhaps I should instead patch the code to add control-center; then I can also use dgettext, etc.15:47
tedgpitti, Yes, that is true.  I'm not sure you'd want both though...15:48
tedgpitti, I'd rather we just patched it to use a directory of desktop files then, no?15:48
pittitedg: sounds good15:48
OmegaWhere is the tiling code, I'd like to take a whack at it?15:48
pittitedg: ok, I'll look into that and propose a branch then15:49
pittiseb128: I could just hardcode it in, but it doesn't seem much more difficult to add support for reading a directory?15:51
seb128pitti, right, out of the fact that we might not want to enable the indicator to turn in a stack of .desktop or allowing abuses to the items15:52
pittiwell, I'll do whatever tedg likes more15:53
seb128pitti, handling a known .desktop is also different from handling random files users might put into the dir and might break your code15:53
seb128but i've no strong opinion either way, whatever is easier15:53
tedgpitti, In general, I prefer the directory approach.  But I'm worried about placement in that I don't think you'd want all the entries tacted on the end.  For instance, system settings at the bottom of that menu doesn't make sense.  It makes more sense to be above logout.15:54
Omega'lo jono.15:54
jonohey Omega15:55
OmegaI remember, I had something I wanted to show you!15:55
OmegaLet me go find it.15:55
pittitedg: mpt just added a comment as well; I guess I'll let the design guys fight this out first15:55
tedgpitti, Okay15:57
danyR_pitti: tedg not that my opinion is of value, but I think system settings should stay in the Me Menu, right next to "About Me...". gnome-shell does this, and it makes sense: system settings is mainly about how my computer works, the way I want it to work, so it should stay on the personal scope: the me menu.15:59
pittidanyR_: that's what I originally assumed as well indeed15:59
pittibut then John said "session"; so I'm in "wait for design decision" mode now16:00
danyR_pitti: right now the design is a bit different, but how Gnome-Sheel does it: http://www.waybeta.com/uploads/img/20100607/201006071026562642-0.png16:03
pittidanyR_: hm, that's a combined me/session menu, though16:04
danyR_pitti: as I said, the visual changed a bit in the meantime: it's all in the same menu, but About Me.., User status and System Settings clearly appear stacked together16:06
kenvandinepitti, there has been another comment, appears they agree again and it should go in session menu16:08

didrocksbasically, we have releases on thursday18:48
didrocksthe week of an alpha/beta, we make a bugfix release on Monday, just before the milestone18:49
kenvandinejono, LO global menus are in the lo-menubar package18:49
didrocksthen, we let people testing and enjoy the latest alpha/beta (no release on Thursday)18:49
didrocksthen, release on next Monday (today in this case)18:49

didrocksand back to usual business on the following thursday (this one)18:49

kenvandineto decide if we will try to do a ffe to get the gtk patch in18:53
kenvandinebut it doesn't look like the module itself will go into natty18:53

kenvandinedidrocks, perhaps you should comment on that bug18:54
kenvandineso seb knows18:54

DBOthat one requires a special purpose hack19:01
DBO:)19:01
artfwoDBO, what do you mean by "special purpose"? :)19:03
DBOwe need to special case the last element in the launcher to have a distended hit box towards the bottom19:04
vishlike a bigger box for a smaller box ;p19:05
artfwothe last element or specifically trash?19:05
DBOartfwo, the last element19:08
DBOwhich will normally be the trash19:08
DaekdroomDBO, if it's a special case to the last element, it must always be the trash19:09
DaekdroomOtherwise, you'll have people dragging into a launcher, and then the file ends up in the trash19:09
OmegaBut isn't the trash always last?19:09
artfwoDBO, any pointers for where to start fixing it then? :)19:09
DBOokay one at a time19:09
DaekdroomOmega, he said "normally" :P19:09
DBODaekdroom, what?19:09
DBOOmega, yes as far as I can tell, but the render and hit code does not enforce this, the model does19:10
DaekdroomDBO, if the patch is applied to work upon the last element of the launcher, then the last element must always be the trash19:10
DBOartfwo, search for the string "HitArea" in Launcher.cpp19:10
artfwoDBO, got it, thanks19:11
DBODaekdroom, ah I understand your mistake now, you think I have any influence in design decisions19:11
DaekdroomDBO, haha19:12
artfwoDBO, but will the merge https://code.launchpad.net/~artfwo/unity/fix-for-728598/+merge/52459 remain revelant?19:12

DBOartfwo, im not sure about that merge, it wont result in properly following design specification for push off hiding19:14

artfwoDBO, then can I revert my branch to trunk somehow to start over?19:15
DBObzr revert19:15
DBOunless you already committed19:15
DBOin which case you can check out a new branch :)19:15
nhainesThe two words that lower my stress the most when I'm hacking!  :)  "bzr revert"19:15
DBOnhaines, not nearly as nice as bzr uncommit19:15
artfwoDBO, if I check a new branch and then push to the same ~artfwo/unity/fix-XXXXXX what happens?19:16

kenvandine3rd time is a charm19:54

kenvandineit doesn't get the signals right if the indicator is loaded before gwibber is running19:55

DBOnothing works for me right now20:03
lamalexwonderful20:03
DBObut thats because my compiz is currently FUBAR20:03
lamalexjcastro, ?20:03
kklimondabtw, why is there a delay between pressing super and numbers showing up?20:03
kklimondaI tend to press super+number too fast, and end up with the dashboard, instead of switching application20:03
Daekdroomkklimonda, I think the delay is for when the launcher is hidden20:04
DaekdroomSpeaking of the launcher, it's not disappearing :(20:04
kklimondabut a) it's not and b) i know which number corresponds to which launcher so this delay is frustrating20:04
DaekdroomI thought you were talking about them specifically showing up.20:05
DaekdroomBut yeah, makes no sense. Super + number should work all the time.20:06
apinheiroMacSlow, you here?20:06
lamalexkklimonda, please file a bug on that20:09
lamalexit should recognize a fast super+# as different from a tap of super20:09
lamalexit does that so that the numbers don't show up when you tap super to get to the dash20:10
lamalexbecause it's ugly20:10
lamalexbut when you learn super+1 for empathy or whatever, it should definitely work at breakneck speed20:10
