| RAOF | DBO: Woot! I have an identifiable difference in the working/not working case - the set of server reads/writes to the gdk client is different when it breaks. | 00:07 |
|---|---|---|
| RAOF | (When it hangs in Undecorate, the i/o is missing an Xserver read from the gdk client) | 00:12 |
| Saamm | I updated unity to 3.8.8 and now search from dash has stop working | 00:17 |
| Saamm | I found a pattern for this problem...As soon as you log in, search from dash does not work. But once you try searching in any files or places lens, search starts working in dash as well | 00:19 |

| Omega | Daekdroom: ping | 01:47 |
| Daekdroom | Omega, pong | 01:57 |
| Daekdroom | Yeah, I know, 10 minutes late. | 01:57 |
| FloatingGoat | hi unity people | 02:09 |
| FloatingGoat | I love unity | 02:09 |
| Omega | FloatingGoat: Unity loves you <3 | 02:14 |
| FloatingGoat | haha | 02:14 |
| FloatingGoat | by the way unity 2D developers are doing a fantastic job | 02:15 |
| FloatingGoat | one thing I am missing from the original version of unity 2d, though, is when you searched for an application with the dash, even if it wasn't installed, it popped up. | 02:19 |
| FloatingGoat | but its fine, I can just go to the applications lense. :) | 02:20 |
| FloatingGoat | in the "launchers and menus" it says "show the launcher when the pointer; pushes the left side of the screen, touches the top left of the screen" now even though I have the first option checked off, it still only shows the launcher when I touch the top left. | 02:23 |
| FloatingGoat | is unity going to have regular updates even after natty final? | 02:33 |
| FloatingGoat | hmmm, what version of unity comes with ubuntu 11.04 beta 2? | 02:50 |
| FloatingGoat | unity 2D * | 02:50 |
| RAOF | HAH! Compiz has a server grab! | 02:51 |
| RAOF | Which is why switching the Display that you call stuff on to the Compiz Display works! | 02:53 |
| RAOF | DBO: We may have a winner! | 02:53 |
| RAOF | DBO: If you happen to be online at 10pm :) | 02:53 |
| DBO | RAOF!!!! | 02:53 |
| DBO | where is compiz getting a server grab from? | 02:54 |
| DBO | I looked for that | 02:54 |
| RAOF | I don't know yet. | 02:54 |
| RAOF | But I've got compiz to wedge in poll from gdk_window_set_mwm_hints, and there's an active server grab. | 02:55 |
| DBO | XGrabDisplay... | 02:57 |
| DBO | XLockDisplay I mean | 02:58 |
| Omega | What the reason that unity and gnome-shell currently can't live side by side? | 02:58 |
| DBO | Omega, different base level library versions | 02:59 |
| RAOF | Actually, that's not strictly speaking true; there's a *pending* server grab; serverGrab is GrabKickout, which indicates that someone has called XGrabServer but it hasn't yet finished being processed. | 02:59 |
| DBO | Unity is built on an older set of g* libraries than gnome shell is | 02:59 |
| FloatingGoat | Omega: haven't tried gnome shell, I like unity though. | 02:59 |
| FloatingGoat | cant wait for the next version of unity 2D. | 02:59 |
| Omega | Ah, DBO are you guys planning on porting to the newer version for another release? | 03:00 |
| Daekdroom | GTK3 for the win! | 03:00 |
| Daekdroom | How does GTK2 compare to GTK3 anyway? I know 3 deprecated some stuff and such, but does it improve anything? | 03:01 |
| Omega | Except for their new "hardware-like toggle" | 03:01 |
| DBO | Daekdroom, not much improvement yet | 03:01 |
| DBO | Omega, so Unity gets built on whatever set of libraries are released at the time Ubuntu goes into library freeze | 03:02 |
| DBO | or whatever we call it | 03:02 |
| DBO | GNOME Shell continued to update their base library requirements long after that | 03:02 |
| DBO | and thus the runtime requirements for GNOME Shell are not in Ubuntu | 03:03 |
| Daekdroom | DBO, even if GTK3 was released in time, wouldn't all GTK2 apps have to be ported? | 03:03 |
| DBO | yes | 03:03 |
| Daekdroom | The LiveCD can't fit GTK2 and 3 | 03:03 |
| DBO | nothing is ported yet anyhow | 03:03 |
| Daekdroom | Early Oneiric is going to be such a breakage in that matter.. | 03:04 |
| DBO | RAOF, so if I were to call XGrabServer, then XUngrabServer | 03:05 |
| DBO | then made an X call on another display... | 03:05 |
| DBO | could *that* cause this? | 03:06 |
| RAOF | DBO: It *shouldn't* | 03:08 |
| DBO | so what you're saying is somehow we are getting | 03:08 |
| RAOF | I guess unless the connection hasn't been flushed. | 03:08 |
| Omega | DBO: So, it would be possible to have a ppa with gnome-shell and a glib3 unity? | 03:08 |
| DBO | XGrabServer (display1); XSomething(display2) LOCK; and then the code is theoretically going to call XUngrabServer (display1) | 03:09 |
| DBO | Omega, we would have to make changes to unity | 03:09 |
| DBO | so not easily no | 03:09 |
| Omega | Ah | 03:09 |
| Omega | Well, good night! | 03:09 |
| DBO | RAOF, so what, call XFlush whenever you XGrab/UngrabServer | 03:10 |
| RAOF | As far as I can tell, the X server's current state is: A client has called XGrabServer(), which has set grabState to KickOut. But that hasn't actually been *processed* yet, because we're waiting in WaitForSomething() | 03:10 |
| RAOF | This doesn't make a lot of sense. | 03:11 |
| DBO | well, there are not *that* many XGrabServer's in compiz | 03:11 |
| DBO | RAOF, maybe something like this is going | 03:12 |
| DBO | CompizDisplay calls XGrab then XUngrab server, commands are sitting in FD | 03:12 |
| DBO | gdk make X call | 03:12 |
| DBO | X begins processing calls, processes XGrabServer, then the X call from gdk comes in, it blocks | 03:13 |
| cjohnston | who is responsible for unity.ubuntu.com? | 03:13 |
| DBO | but then the XUngrab would still be in teh queue | 03:13 |
| DBO | cjohnston, why? | 03:14 |
| DBO | I think Jono and Jorge | 03:14 |
| cjohnston | there are some issues with the site | 03:14 |
| DBO | what kind of issues? | 03:14 |
| cjohnston | its using the wrong favicon, the main-nav color is wrong | 03:17 |
| FloatingGoat | is there any way i can change unity 2D auto hide manually? | 03:18 |
| FloatingGoat | so apparently typing unity into the terminal herp derps everything, ill take not of that | 03:21 |
| DBO | FloatingGoat, dont know anything about unity2d to be honest | 03:25 |
| FloatingGoat | DBO | 03:26 |
| FloatingGoat | I cant run 3D :( | 03:26 |
| DBO | why not? | 03:26 |
| DBO | 3d is where its AT | 03:26 |
| FloatingGoat | I dont got proprietary drivers for my card :' | 03:26 |
| FloatingGoat | :'( | 03:26 |
| DBO | what card? | 03:27 |
| FloatingGoat | ATI raedon 7200 | 03:27 |
| DBO | O_O | 03:27 |
| FloatingGoat | even though I can to all the snazzy effects like teh cube and stuff | 03:27 |
| DBO | maybe you should spend 5 bucks and get an upgrade | 03:27 |
| FloatingGoat | no unity 4 me :'( | 03:28 |
| FloatingGoat | DBO | 03:28 |
| FloatingGoat | I only have an AGP port on this mobo | 03:28 |
| DBO | so you can pick up a radeon 9800 pro | 03:28 |
| DBO | for 5 bucks | 03:28 |
| FloatingGoat | hmm | 03:28 |
| FloatingGoat | what will that give me? | 03:28 |
| DBO | hopefully, unity | 03:28 |
| FloatingGoat | proprietary drivers? (HAPPY FACE) | 03:28 |
| FloatingGoat | AGP? (MOAR HAPPY FACE) | 03:28 |
| DBO | wow video cards are huge these days | 03:30 |
| DBO | wow | 03:30 |
| DBO | newegg still sells AGP video cards | 03:30 |
| FloatingGoat | hmm it seems as though the one you linked to my is 67 more dollars than you predicted | 03:31 |
| DBO | haha | 03:32 |
| DBO | yeah it is | 03:32 |
| DBO | the cheapest upgrade for you I see is this | 03:32 |
| DBO | http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814125249 | 03:32 |
| DBO | email them and offer them 20 bucks | 03:32 |
| DBO | see what happens | 03:32 |
| DBO | dual head: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130465 | 03:33 |
| DBO | double the VRAM: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814133328 | 03:33 |
| DBO | $30 after mail in rebate: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130452 | 03:34 |
| FloatingGoat | http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814134076 | 03:34 |
| FloatingGoat | you are opening my eyes to new opportunities that I have not seen be fore | 03:35 |
| FloatingGoat | are these all ubuntu compatible? | 03:35 |
| FloatingGoat | with nice drivers for gaming and all? | 03:35 |
| DBO | the nvidia ones get a 6xxx or newer | 03:35 |
| DBO | ati I can check with | 03:35 |
| DBO | ati I think supports only back to like the HD 3xxx series | 03:36 |
| DBO | so they dropped AGP support from the fglrx driver | 03:36 |
| FloatingGoat | interesting | 03:38 |
| FloatingGoat | it seems as though i am running a mixture of unity 3D and 2D | 03:41 |
| FloatingGoat | odd | 03:41 |
| RAOF | Bah. The dispatch code is not a model of clarity and poise. | 03:42 |
| FloatingGoat | DBO: hey, what is the best AGP that i can get with full ubuntu compatibility? | 03:42 |
| DBO | FloatingGoat, let me looks for you | 03:42 |
| FloatingGoat | DBO: thank you friend | 03:43 |
| DBO | FloatingGoat, this would be a killer upgrade: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814125281 | 03:45 |
| DBO | and I was wrong, that is fglrx compliant | 03:45 |
| DBO | RAOF, any clues? | 03:47 |
| FloatingGoat | DBO that runs on the same port as my current | 03:49 |
| FloatingGoat | O.O | 03:49 |
| FloatingGoat | ? | 03:49 |
| RAOF | I don't yet see how X can block in WaitForSomething *and* have grabState == GrabKickout *and* know that there's a client that wants to be processed. | 03:49 |
| RAOF | As far as I can tell, the client that wants to be processed should cause WaitForSomething to return, then the dispatch loop should see GrabKickout, change it to GrabActive, and then halt processing of the client's commands. | 03:50 |
| DBO | I wonder why we even call XGrabServer... | 03:50 |
| RAOF | That's a fair question :) | 03:52 |
| RAOF | It appears to be to ensure you get atomic state. | 03:52 |
| DBO | okay the one in screen.cpp probably doesn't matter | 03:53 |
| DBO | that only happens on init | 03:53 |
| DBO | the one in compWindow does it a LOT | 03:53 |
| RAOF | Yes. | 03:55 |
| RAOF | You know, in addition to trying to understand this, I might just throw an XSync() after each X{Grab,Ungrab}Server and see what happens. | 03:55 |
| FloatingGoat | DBO, so that last one you linked works with linux? | 03:55 |
| DBO | FloatingGoat, the best person in the world to ask is right here with us | 03:56 |
| DBO | RAOF, yeah do that | 03:56 |
| DBO | lets see what happens | 03:56 |
| DBO | RAOF, also can you confirm for FloatingGoat that this card will work with Natty: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814125281 | 03:56 |
| RAOF | Should work fine with both the open source drivers and the proprietary drivers. | 03:57 |
| FloatingGoat | that lin is herp derpin everything | 03:58 |
| RAOF | Bah! Could X please have fewer crazyarse macros? | 04:11 |
| DBO | RAOF, no | 04:11 |
| DBO | my reddit lens is so awesome | 04:12 |
| ajmitch | DBO: a reddit lens? that's worrying :) | 04:15 |
| DBO | no sir | 04:15 |
| DBO | its awesome | 04:15 |
| ajmitch | I must see this | 04:16 |
| DBO | just dont type anything into it that you dont want rule-34'd | 04:16 |
| * ajmitch has made a brief start on a launchpad lens | 04:16 | |
| ajmitch | hah | 04:16 |
| DBO | http://i.imgur.com/yNjY0.jpg | 04:16 |
| DBO | not complete yet | 04:16 |
| DBO | its at lp:reddit-lens | 04:16 |
| ajmitch | I shall have to try that this evening | 04:17 |
| DBO | I am going to make the search box say "Narwhals and Bacon" by default | 04:17 |
| DBO | its only right for reddit | 04:17 |
| ajmitch | true | 04:17 |
| DBO | also, got my first 100 link karma | 04:18 |
| DBO | at long last! | 04:18 |
| FloatingGoat | okay back | 04:23 |
| FloatingGoat | ever since I clicked that link everything derped to the herp | 04:23 |
| DBO | derping the herpa derpa | 04:25 |
| FloatingGoat | DBO why isnt that card on this list? :'( http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/Pages/index.aspx | 04:26 |
| DBO | i dont know really | 04:28 |
| FloatingGoat | http://www.gigabyte.us/products/product-page.aspx?pid=3088#dl doesnt look to be there either | 04:35 |
| DBO | it really should be supported | 04:37 |
| DBO | RAOF, how does the XSync love go? | 04:38 |
| RAOF | DBO: Built and trying it now. | 04:38 |
| RAOF | nb: dpkg isn't any faster on a 4-disc btrfs raid than it is on a 1-disc btrfs system. | 04:39 |
| DBO | isn't that largely due to btrfs still being shit? | 04:40 |
| RAOF | Yes it is. | 04:41 |
| RAOF | Apparently on non-rotating media it's not a pile of fail. | 04:41 |
| RAOF | So they say. | 04:41 |
| FloatingGoat | guys I have a joke | 04:42 |
| DBO | i thought it was a pile of fail everywhere | 04:42 |
| FloatingGoat | okay, you got fresh a mac install, and fresh ubuntu install, no internet. who writes a paper faster? oh wait.. that's right, macs don't come with a word processor XD | 04:42 |
| * DBO is not entirely convinced handwriting is slower than open office | 04:43 | |
| FloatingGoat | libreoffice* | 04:44 |
| FloatingGoat | i've done all my projects for school with open office, no hassle | 04:44 |
| RAOF | DBO: XSync looks to be good; I'll keep maximising/restoring for another couple of minutes to be sure. | 04:46 |
| DBO | RAOF, okay perfect | 04:46 |
| DBO | ship it! | 04:46 |
| DBO | so XSync at the end of any method that grabs/ungrabs the server | 04:47 |
| DBO | then call it good? | 04:47 |
| RAOF | Actually, I'm just calling XSync immediately after every grab/ungrab call. | 04:47 |
| RAOF | I'd also like to work out what's *actually* going wrong, though :) | 04:47 |
| FloatingGoat | so i can get ubuntu CD's from local people now? | 04:48 |
| FloatingGoat | how do i find my loco team? | 04:48 |
| DBO | RAOF, wouldn't it work just to do it at the end of the responsible methods? | 04:48 |
| RAOF | DBO: Maybe? :) | 04:50 |
| RAOF | Hey, there's a fun bug! Each restore/maximise cycle moves the window ~1px to the right! | 04:50 |
| DBO | :P | 04:50 |
| RAOF | Ok. That's enough clicking. | 04:51 |
| RAOF | I'm going to declare the XSync a success. | 04:51 |
| * DBO hugs RAOF | 04:52 | |
| DBO | thank you for doing that RAOF | 04:53 |
| DBO | I owe you beer | 04:53 |
| RAOF | No problem :) | 04:53 |
| DBO | (but I am still going to call you Fabio) | 04:53 |
| RAOF | Well, I do have /fabulous/ hair! | 04:53 |
| RAOF | Would you like what I've got, or a sync-at-end-of-method test? | 04:55 |
| DBO | sync at end | 04:55 |
| bitshifternz | If I wanted to attach to unity with gdb and add some breakpoints, what's the best way to go about that? | 05:13 |
| bitshifternz | ssh from another machine? | 05:14 |
| RAOF | Switch to a VT and run gdb from there should work. | 05:15 |
| RAOF | It's not like X where VT switching makes signals happen :) | 05:15 |
| bitshifternz | of course if I want to trigger a breakpoint by doing something in unity I'll need a 2nd machine right? Do I need debug symbols for compiz or anything? | 05:16 |
| RAOF | You'll want debug symbols for compiz, yeah. | 05:16 |
| RAOF | You shouldn't need a second machine (although that might make it easier) - just trigger what you want to happen, the screen will freeze, and switch back to the VT with gdb. | 05:16 |
| bitshifternz | is there a deb with those or build it locally? | 05:16 |
| RAOF | (Nearly) Every binary package in the archive has a -dbgsym package associated with it, containing the debugging symbols. | 05:17 |
| * DBO looks at RAOF | 05:18 | |
| bitshifternz | cheers. and I just attach to the compiz process? | 05:18 |
| RAOF | bitshifternz: Indeedy. | 05:18 |
| RAOF | DBO: Sync at end semes to work, too. | 05:18 |
| DBO | WEWT! | 05:18 |
| * DBO goes to yell it from the mountain | 05:18 | |
| DBO | lets get sam to patch that shit! | 05:18 |
| RAOF | DBO: Go to bed :). I'll run some extra checks, like ensuring I can still reproduce it *without* the XSyncs and stuff. :) | 05:19 |
| bitshifternz | uptil now I've been using g_debug messages to debug. gets painful quickly | 05:19 |
| DBO | RAOF, not until the ball is rolling to get this from this point out to users | 05:19 |
| DBO | this bug is teh last thing that I consider a "blocker" for unity | 05:19 |
| DBO | bitshifternz, what are you debugging? | 05:32 |
| * RAOF should really have written a program to repeatedly maximize/restore a window :) | 05:32 | |
| bitshifternz | nothing right now, I'm at work. But I was trying to make focus respect minimised windows. | 05:34 |
| bitshifternz | If you click on an app that has multiple windows then minimise all it's windows and click the launcher icon again, it should spread I think, but it doesn't it just unminimises everything again | 05:35 |
| bitshifternz | I was wanting to look into that amongst other things | 05:35 |
| RAOF | Ok. Can reproduce without the XSyncs, can't reproduce with the XSyncs. | 05:37 |
| RAOF | smspillaz|z: Be more paranoid about XGrabServer :) | 05:38 |
| DBO | RAOF, can you email the dx team list your findings? | 05:45 |
| RAOF | DBO: Email is dx@lists.ubuntu.com? | 05:45 |
| DBO | dx-team@lists.launchpad.net | 05:46 |
| RAOF | Or ayatana-dev@lists.ubuntu.com? I'll certainly do that for you. | 05:46 |
| DBO | you are not a dx member? | 05:46 |
| DBO | cc me, neil, and sam, just in case the dx list hates on you | 05:46 |
| DBO | RAOF, if it means anything | 05:52 |
| DBO | I am now looking through other codebases which use XGrabServer | 05:52 |
| DBO | and they all XSync after | 05:53 |
| DBO | RAOF, I am going to go now, before I never get to have sex again | 05:53 |
| DBO | well... you know, except with Neil | 05:53 |
| RAOF | DBO: :P | 05:53 |
| RAOF | DBO: Sleep well. | 05:53 |
| DBO | but please do send that email | 05:53 |
| RAOF | DBO: It's underway. | 05:53 |
| DBO | RAOF, just so you know, I never got an email from you | 05:55 |
| DBO | you might want to check your address book for me | 05:55 |
| DBO | typo? | 05:55 |
| RAOF | Jason.Smith@canonical.com, right? | 05:56 |
| RAOF | That was just me making a typo before :) | 05:56 |
| RAOF | In IRC. | 05:56 |
| RAOF | Urgh. Sorry for that. | 05:56 |
| DBO | yeah | 05:57 |
| DBO | I dont know why your emails never reach me | 05:57 |
| DBO | maybe it's just not meant to be | 05:57 |
| DBO | RAOF, i *just* got your email from yesterday | 06:04 |
| DBO | AWESOME | 06:04 |
| RAOF | YAY EVOLUTION! | 06:05 |
| RAOF | How about *today's* email? | 06:05 |
| manveru | heya | 07:21 |
| manveru | anybody here knows the easiest way to try unity on archlinux? | 07:21 |
| RAOF | Fire up the browser and download an Ubuntu live cd? :) | 07:22 |
| manveru | heh | 07:22 |
| RAOF | But if you wanted to package it or grab it for arch (which definitely *won't* be the easiest way ☺) you'll need to walk the dependency stack. | 07:22 |
| RAOF | That'll be *indicat*, the GTK patches, dbusmenu, etc. | 07:23 |
| manveru | hm | 07:23 |
| manveru | http://unity.ubuntu.com/ and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Ayatana don't point to any iso | 07:23 |
| manveru | oh, ubuntu itself? | 07:24 |
| RAOF | Yeah, ubuntu itself. | 07:28 |

| JarekJ83 | i have a question bout Ubuntu Unity..is there gonna be new login screen soon? i know its not possible in 11.04 but in 11.10 it would be cool cause current is not so good..there should be new look, plus new options like login with cam, fingerprints.. | 12:36 |
| UndiFineD | I totally agree with Jarek, there should be something done to the login at least to make it accessible | 12:46 |

| smspillaz|z | RAOF: I believe XGrabServer is a synchronous call and XUngrabServer isn't | 14:10 |
| * smspillaz|z would be very concerned if XGrabServer was just a racy thing that didn't do what it was supposed to until the X server has gotten around to it | 14:11 | |
| smspillaz|z | however, XUngrabServer is asynchronous since the design is that the server is supposed to finish processing stuff in your command buffer first before opening up other connections | 14:11 |

| stefano-palazzo | hi Ken :) | 14:24 |
| kenvandine | stefano-palazzo, what's up? | 14:25 |
| stefano-palazzo | kenvandine, can you give me the latest news on this bug? I'm stumped | 14:25 |
| stefano-palazzo | https://bugs.launchpad.net/askubuntu-lens/+bug/758839 | 14:25 |
| ubot5 | Ubuntu bug 758839 in AskUbuntu Lens "Lens doesn't start on login" [Critical,Confirmed] | 14:25 |
| stefano-palazzo | I've no idea what to do | 14:25 |
| kenvandine | stefano-palazzo, i haven't looked again, we should get kamstrup to look | 14:26 |
| kenvandine | the error i saw was the section_model isn't a dee model | 14:26 |
| zniavre | sense, in fact i thought the bug was it does not appears ... :o) | 14:26 |
| kenvandine | kamstrup, you around? | 14:26 |
| sense | zniavre: We want to have a menu in the top panel when the desktop is focussed. It's on purpose. :) | 14:27 |
| zniavre | ok that s fair | 14:27 |
| jcastro | kenvandine: maybe lazy loading fixed it, I'll try it now | 14:28 |
| stefano-palazzo | kenvandine, that reminds me of the early Dee bugs; do you know if any other lenses are affected? | 14:28 |
| stefano-palazzo | (I can finally reproduce it reliably by the way) | 14:29 |
| kenvandine | stefano-palazzo, actually i think the google books lens maybe | 14:29 |
| kenvandine | i get a crash on load for that | 14:29 |
| stefano-palazzo | that makes sense, the books lense is built on my code base (which in turn is built off example code) | 14:30 |
| stefano-palazzo | *lens | 14:30 |
| davidcalle | stefano-palazzo, my startup bugs were mostly (and weirdly) related to utf-8 stuff. | 14:31 |
| davidcalle | stefano-palazzo, it's working 99% of the time at startup now. | 14:31 |
| stefano-palazzo | davidcalle, do you have a traceback of this kind of thing handy? | 14:31 |
| davidcalle | stefano-palazzo, I usually look at cat /proc/<pid>/fd/1 when it crashes | 14:32 |
| stefano-palazzo | davidcalle, I was thinking, maybe I know what the problem is :) | 14:33 |
| davidcalle | stefano-palazzo, oh :) | 14:33 |
| stefano-palazzo | I've been porting things to python 3000, so I'm very familiar with "ordinal not in range" type of errors | 14:33 |
| davidcalle | I've seen those in nightmares a few nights ago :P | 14:34 |
| stefano-palazzo | heh | 14:34 |
| stefano-palazzo | usually your best bet is the response object from urllib, sometimes the headers contain an encoding, | 14:36 |
| stefano-palazzo | if everything else fails, you need to do trial and error, try to convert from X to unicode where X is every possible encoding in order of likelyhood. It's a pain (but firefox does it this way too) | 14:36 |
| davidcalle | Yes, I try to sanitize it. And I've discovered you shouldn't "print" everything... | 14:37 |
| stefano-palazzo | :-) | 14:37 |
| davidcalle | Oh, I now have a PPA if you want to see if we can smash common bugs together. | 14:38 |
| davidcalle | https://launchpad.net/~davidc3/+archive/books-lens | 14:39 |
| stefano-palazzo | nice! adding that now | 14:40 |
| davidcalle | stefano-palazzo, I've seen pics of a reddit lens. We should make a Lens team on Launchpad, with a handy mailing-list. | 14:41 |
| stefano-palazzo | like "Lens developers"? | 14:41 |
| davidcalle | Seems perfect. | 14:41 |
| stefano-palazzo | yeah why not | 14:42 |
| stefano-palazzo | there's slight overhead with Unity, but sure I'm in | 14:42 |
| jcastro | bummer guys, still doesn't work even with the latest unity. | 14:51 |
| jcastro | davidcalle: actually, I'd like to have lens discussions on ayatana-dev, at least for a while since that's where the DX people are that can help us out | 14:51 |
| davidcalle | jcastro, what doesn't work? Yeah, you're right, I always forget about ayatana-dev. | 14:53 |
| jcastro | the AU lens | 14:53 |
| jcastro | when I log in it's blank | 14:53 |
| jcastro | I have to manually start it up | 14:53 |
| davidcalle | jcastro, have you tried my ppa, to see if you have the same bug? The code base is very similar. | 14:54 |
| jcastro | oh good idea | 14:55 |
| jcastro | ok so I logged in and out like 5 times | 14:59 |
| jcastro | it's totally racy, depending on my random dice roll one, both, or neither lens loads | 14:59 |
| stefano-palazzo | :-( | 15:00 |
| stefano-palazzo | davidcalle, how long does your lens take to start up? | 15:00 |
| stefano-palazzo | in other words, do you download big chunks of data on startup, like me? | 15:01 |
| davidcalle | stefano-palazzo, not on startup. | 15:03 |
| davidcalle | stefano-palazzo, ok, now when I kill the process, it automatically restarts... Didn't have that yesterday. :/ | 15:07 |
| stefano-palazzo | by the way davidcalle, your lens is amazing. It even find my old philophy techer's book :D | 15:07 |
| stefano-palazzo | davidcalle, I just noticed the same thing | 15:07 |
| davidcalle | stefano-palazzo, :) | 15:08 |
| stefano-palazzo | I guess I must read it now :) | 15:08 |
| njpatel | jcastro, it should only start the lens when you click on the ubuntu button, i.e. at log-in no unity-*-place should be running | 15:08 |
| njpatel | unity-*-daemon* | 15:08 |
| njpatel | also, why do we not ship with Faenza as default icons? They match Unity so well | 15:09 |
| davidcalle | njpatel, :-) | 15:09 |
| jcastro | njpatel: even clicking on them doesn't load them | 15:10 |
| njpatel | jcastro, what about the files/apps place? | 15:10 |
| jcastro | there is something odd going on in there | 15:10 |
| njpatel | is the .service file correct for dbus activation? | 15:10 |
| jcastro | files and apps work fine | 15:10 |
| jcastro | it's just the 3rd party lenses | 15:10 |
| njpatel | or, the python lenses? | 15:11 |
| njpatel | maybe there is something wrong going on there | 15:11 |
| stefano-palazzo | very possible ↑ | 15:11 |
| njpatel | (apart from them being in python ;) | 15:11 |
| jcastro | yea | 15:11 |

| jcastro | see his comment there | 15:11 |
| kenvandine | njpatel, no, working fine now | 15:12 |
| njpatel | so the daemon is running | 15:12 |
| njpatel | but the objects are not exported over dbus? | 15:12 |
| njpatel | or is dee failing? | 15:12 |
| kenvandine | njpatel, if i start the AU daemon manually then setsid unity | 15:12 |
| kenvandine | i see assertions like DEE_IS_MODEL | 15:12 |
| kenvandine | on the sections_model | 15:13 |
| njpatel | hmm | 15:13 |
| kenvandine | just that one model | 15:13 |
| kenvandine | the gwibber one is working fine now though | 15:13 |
| kenvandine | but i had been having similar issues with it a week or so ago | 15:13 |
| njpatel | do you see the place entry? | 15:14 |
| njpatel | wow, it does happen | 15:14 |

| jcastro | :) | 15:17 |
| njpatel | hah | 15:17 |
| njpatel | could it take so long to start up that the request is timing out? | 15:17 |
| njpatel | kamstrup, would probably know best | 15:18 |
| stefano-palazzo | davidcalle, hey I get no Icons for the books - lots of IconLoader errors "operation not supported" | 15:18 |
| stefano-palazzo | you know, I do download stuff before registering with dbus | 15:18 |
| stefano-palazzo | maybe I should switch it 'round and see if that makes a big difference, maybe my lens is blocking others _somehow_ | 15:19 |
| davidcalle | stefano-palazzo, I know, it happens 50% of the time. | 15:19 |

| stefano-palazzo | anyway, downloading files after registering with dbus doesn't solve the problem. It doesn't seem to be related to the long startup time | 15:27 |

| kenvandine | you wouldn't create a IndicateGtk.Indicator object | 22:27 |
| kenvandine | my immediate need was to fix building against the libindicate vapi | 22:28 |
| tedg | Yeah, I don't think that makes sense. | 22:28 |
| kenvandine | but then i discovered that even having gir1.2-indicate-gtk-0.5 installed breaks gir for indicate-gtk | 22:28 |
| tedg | we could leave indicate-gtk broken? | 22:29 |
| kenvandine | no... we should remove it or fix it... | 22:29 |
| kenvandine | maybe we can make gir1.2-indicate-0.5 Breaks/Replaces gir1.2-indicate-gtk-0.5 | 22:30 |
| tedg | kenvandine, Then just include the indicate headers in the gtk one? | 22:31 |
| kenvandine | that's an idea | 22:32 |
| kenvandine | well, i proposed what i have... feels a little bit like a hack | 22:34 |
| kenvandine | it adds listener.h as the header for everything | 22:34 |
| kenvandine | but listener.h includes the other headers | 22:34 |
| kenvandine | it seems to work | 22:34 |
| kenvandine | for the override, it looks like i can only specify a single header for a namespace | 22:35 |
| * kenvandine is wiped, eod and cold beer for me :) | 22:35 | |
| tedg | kenvandine, Okay. Thanks, have a good weekend! | 22:36 |
